AROUND THE STATE
(AP) - Pilots and air traffic con-
trollers have had their say in the
months since USAir Flight 1016
crashed in Charlotte, killing 37
people. Now, federal investigators
are ready to reveal their findings.
The National Transportation
Safety Board is expected to release
a staff report on the likely cause at
its meeting Tuesday in Washington.
The three-member panel also will see
computer animation depicting the
flight's final minutes.
(AP) - Guilford County stu-
dents thought their foam lunch trays
were being recycled until a curious
fifth-grader discovered that they
actually were ending up in the local
landfill.
Several county schools includ-
ing Southwest Elementary collect
the polystyrene trays. They were sent
to a recycling center in Durham, but
the company went out of business
last year. No one told students and
teachers, who continued their recy-
cling routine.
(AP) - Democrat members of a
U.S. Congressional committee study-
ing the fate of wetlands and endan-
gered species boycotted a weekend
meeting here, claiming it would con-
firm only what the Republican mem-
bers wanted to hear.
The members of the House Re-
sources Committee want to balance
environmental laws they believe are
unfairly weighted against private
property owners and business. All
of the committee's minority Demo-
crats refused to attend the meeting,
saying it was stacked against them.
AROUND THE
COUNTRV
(AP) - Fumes from an aerosol
cleaner exploded at an elementary
school in Ceres, California, Monday,
serously burning three janitors and
blowing smoke and debris onto chil-
dren outside. Sixteen pupils suffered
minor injuries.
Shortly before the school day
began, a janitor apparently lighted
a cigarette in a 4-by-10-foot work
room filled with the fumes of a chew-
ing-gum remover that was being
sprayed on furniture, police Sgt.
Hollie Hall said.
(AP) - Sioux officials in Green-
wood, S.D. reburying eight ancestors
whose bones were returned by the
Smithsonian Institution accidentally
started a 50-acre grass fire while
lighting a bundle of sage to purify
the remains.
The blaze on tribal land dis-
rupted the ceremony for 2 12 hours
Sunday.
AROUND THE
WORLD
(AP) - Travelers going to Rus-
sia for more than 90 days will have
to prove they don't have AIDS, un-
der a law signed Monday by Presi-
dent Boris Yeltsin. Foreign residents
who test positive would be deported.
The measure, which takes effect
Aug. 1, also requires mandatory
AIDS tests for prison inmates and
some Russian workers.

Seniors work for scholarship
Seniors given
opportunity to be
part of senior gift
Wendy Rountree
Staff Writer
The class of '95 can leave its
lasting impression at ECU by par-
ticipating in the Senior Challenge,
an effort to give the university a
class gift.
"In the past, the class gift has
been given by a few individuals or
from money set aside by the SGA
said Wendy Jones, senior program
coordinator for the ECU Ambassa-
dors. "This year we want to give all
seniors a chance to contribute
The challenge is part of the
ECU Ambassador's senior program,
which has with the Alumni Associa-
tion sponsored all of the senior pi-
rate pass activities.
Jones said that the Ambassa-
dors, senior class officers and the
SGA decided to make the class gift
a university scholarship.
"We were contacted by the
Alumni Association in coordination
with the ECU Ambassadors said
Bill Gheen. senior class president.
"We the senior class officers decided
that the senior class gift should be
a need-based scholarship and by
working in close relationship with
ECU Ambassadors and the ECU

take on such an
ambitious

The actual schol-
arship will come
from the interest generated by the
money in the bank. The goal is for
seniors to initially raise between
$20,000 to $30,000.

The office of admissions will
give the scholarship to a student on
an annual basis.
Jones said the idea to have a
senior class gift came from other es-
tablished programs at N.C. State,
UNC and Appalachian State, who
have been holding
senior class gift
drives for a number
of years.
The challenge's
theme is "95 in 95

If students de-

they can do so in a

This summer students and the
general public can learn more about
African art at the exhibition in the
Wellington B. Gray Gallery from July
27 to Aug. 23.
"The exhibition is really a dona-
tion from Dr. James Lankton of Win-
ston-Saleni, North Carolina said
Michael Dorsey, dean of the School
of Art.
Dorsey said Lankton decided to
give ECU his art collection after hear-
ing a lecture from and speaking to Dr.
Sharon Pruitt, assistant professor of
art history, who teaches African art
history in the School of Art He was
also impressed by the university's Af-
rican art history program.
"We have a very unique program
in African art history Dorsey said.
"We have course work for majors and
non-majors. It's quite extensive and
goes all the way up to the graduate
level. To help us along, he decided to
deposit a sizable holding of original
African art
The collection is from the Kuba
kingdom from central Zaire and is
worth approximately $85,000. Some
of the art objects include bracelets,
anklets, beads, sculpture, textiles, cer-
emonial makes, knives and bowls.
Dorsey said the collection will
permanently be housed in the new
African American Cultural Center in
Bloxton House after the exhibition for
the use of the entire campus.
"There is also a strong program
in African history in the College of
Arts and Sciences Dorsey said. "So,
what we thought would be the most
beneficial repository for the collection
would be the African American Cul-
tural Center. As I understand it the
unit will hopefully be a combination
gallery, library, and study center for
scholars interested in African cultural
activities
"Consequently, not only will this
collection be available for art faculty
and art students, but it will be avail-
able for professors and students in

Beginning next summer, ECU's physical therapy program will
offer only a master's degree, instead of the baccalaureate degree
that has been offered since 1970.
"As physical therapy became more popular and more people
became aware of it as a profession, as a career, as an allied health
profession as a health delivery service, the number of applications
increased and we started to get a lot of applications from second
degree students as well as undergraduate students and even stu-
dents who had completed graduate level work said Dr. Bruce
Albright, chair of the physical therapy department. "The profession
itself has been moving with time into a more independent role na-
tionwide, there are a lot of states including North Carolina that
allow for direct access for patient care services
Patients no longer need the referrals once required by one's
family doctor, he said. The changing role of physical therapy across
the nation has caused the program's reconstruction.
The program accepts 40 students each year, and has a total of
80 students. Currently, there is a junior and senior class. When the
program turns to the graduate level, the number of students en-
rolled will remain the same, Albright said.
Albright has been at ECU since 1990. He said the first class to
graduate in 72 had five students and three faculty members. The
department now has nine faculty members and graduates around
40 students each year.
Admission to the physical therapy program is notoriously strenu-
ous. Albright said there is an admissions sub-committee made up of
four faculty members, and the faculty as a whole makes the final
decisions.
The admissions process is in transition with the programs tran-
sition, Albright said. Admission requirements are listed in the gradu-
ate catalogs. He said the new program will take some time to estab-
lish because the entire course curriculum will have to be reviewed.
"We have a commitment to the state and there's a lot of inter-
est in physical therapy. Trying to have an admissions process and
screening process that allows us to look at the scholastic abilities
of students as well as somehow determine their commitment to the
profession Albright said. "We have the largest program in North
Carolina and during the undergraduate program gave preference to
East Carolina students and North Carolina residence
He said the department will continue to favor North Carolina
residents because there is a national need for physical therapists,
and ECU's program provides 80 percent of the physical therapists
found in eastern North Carolina.
"It's a masters in physical therapy, and that is'an entry-level
program Albright said. "The completion of the masters in physical
therapy will enable the graduate to sit for licenser examination
Students march for rape awareness

(C
The month of April means lots
of things to students. For some, it
signifies spring fever, finals and
graduation. For others, it is has a
more serious meaning. It is the time
of year set aside for Rape Awareness
Month. In an effort to raise con-
sciousness about the subject, several
academic and student organizations
have come together to promote
awareness.
Today, at 5 p.m a Take Back the
Night march is scheduled to begin
immediately following some discus-
sion from key speakers involved in
the ECU community. The location for
the event ard the first leg of the
march is on the Mall.
Scheduled to speak at the March
are Dr. Al Matthews, vice chancellor
of Student Life. Amy Cartledge from
the Real Crisis Center, Valerie Tho-
mas from the Domestic Violence Cen-
ter in Greenville, Dr. Sara Shepard,
chair of the counciling center, and
other representatives from divisions
of Student Life.
"People have a right to feel safe
and that's what this march is about
Shepherd said.
The march will
start at the mall,
then continue to-
wards the General
Classroom Building,
around Founders
Drive and to the
Brewster Building.
From there it will
head toward the
Croatan and up to
the Speight Build-
ing, behind
Ragsdale, and then
over to the Spilman
Building. The last
part of the march
will pass behind the
Cotten, Fleming and
Jarvis residence
halls before its re-
turn to the Mall. The
whole event is scheduled to last ap-
proximately two hours.
"The march is typically held in
October, but we decided to do it in
April because it is Rape Awareness
Month and it closely follows the movie
(.4 Reason To Believe) Shepherd
said.
Some issues the speakers will in-
clude: Crime on campus, sexual as-
saults and rapes,
domestic violence,
safety and security
and impacts on a
victim's life.
"It's impor-
tant to recognize
that victims of
crime need to tell
someone and be-
gin to talk about it
to regain a sense
of security and

the ones to deal
with the issues
have typically been
women, but it's
not just a woman
thing. Men need to
get involved too.
Both sexes need to communicate and
both sexes need to avoid crime
"The theme is partnership said
Dr. Susan McCammon, director of
Women's Studies in the psychology
department. "This is an issue for all
of us to work on, fraternities, sorori-
ties, residence halls and all compo-
nents of the community
"Events like the march are really
helpful in helping people to be aware
of these types of problems. It's a good
starting point to try to reduce these
problems McCammon said.
Another organization involved
with the march is the Women's Stud-
ies Alliance.
"We helped get the word out by
handing out ribbons and flyers said
Christine Carson, a member of the
Graduate Student and Women's Stud-
ies Alliance "We like to contribute
as a group by bringing speakers in
and being involved in the education
and awareness of women's issues
The alliance will be in front of
The Student Stores today to hand out
more ribbons and offer additional in-
formation about the march.
"We'd like to invite all people out
to say we don't do these types of
crimes Shepherd said. "And if
people want to bring candles, they are
welcome to do so
In the event of rain during the
start of the event, the march will be
canceled and will be postponed, be-
cause of the scheduling of the Mall,
until next year.

Over 130 high school and middle
school students skipped classes last Fri-
day. They were here at ECU competing
in the National History Day District I
competition.
National History Day is an annual
event sponsored by the department of
history that gives students from 15 local
counties a chance to compete at the dis-
trict level and perhaps advance to the
state and even national-level competi-
tions.
"District-level winners will advance
to the ste-level competition in Winston-
Salem in April said Dr. Claire Pittman,

the state-level winners will go on to the
national competition in June which is
being held at the University of Maryland
this year
Emily Tepper, a student competitor
form J.H. Rose High School A'ho took
second place in the Senior Individual
Project category and will advance to the
state competition, said she became in-
volved in the event originally because she
had to.
"I went in seventh grade also
Tepper said. "It's something our teach-
ers require but it is fun. I did an indi-
vidual project on the Holocaust It was
about the German citizens who knew
what was going on and did or didn't de-
cide to act on their morals
There are 14 categories in the jun-
ior level, grades six through eight and in
the senior level, grades nine through
twelve. The competing students can sub-
mit historical papers, projects, perfor-
mances or media presentations, all of
which can be done individual or in a
group, with the exception of the histori-
cal paper which must be done individu-
ally.
"The, quality of the entries is very
high this year Pittman said. "We hope
to get kids excited about history and
make them see that there is more to it
than what is between two covers of a
textbook
According to Rasheeda Taliaferro,
a J.H. Rose student who took second
place in the Senior Individual Perfor-
mance category and will be competing
at the national level, extra credit was her
reason for entering the contest
"I did an individual performance
called 'A Southern Point of View
Taliaferro said. "It was about southern
white women after the Civil War
In addition to the group and indi-
vidual awards, the Pitt County Histori-
cal Society donates plaques each year to
be given to the schools with winning
entries in each division.
The awards ceremony was held at
Wright Auditorium. The winners in each
category were greeted with screams and
shouts, but there may be a downside to
being chosen as one of the winners. "The
state competition is on the same day as

SGA execs to serve office hours
SGA passes bill
which requires
mandatory office
hours
Tambra Zion
Assistant News Editor
Student Government Association
(SGA) executes will now be required
to serve weekly office hours.
A bill was passed during
yesterday's SGA meeting that puts
SGA's vice-president in charge of pub-
lic relations. This would include the
distribution of fliers during the be-
ginning of each semester to explain
the role of SGA and past accomplish-
ments to students. The bill also re-
quires SGA's secretary to publish a
handbill every fourth meeting that
would explain current and previous
meeting events.
The president would hi required
to serve 15 hours each week under
the new bill. The vice president and
treasurer would be required to serve
10 hours each week. The secretary
and speaker will have to serve six
hours, and committee chairs will serve
one hour each week. A log-in manual
will be kept in the SGA office and
brought to weekly meetings.
SGA Speaker Dale Emery said
the hours roughly measure out to the
representatives being paid $5 an hour.
The bill also plans to re-form the
procedures committee by placing the
vice president in charge. The commit-
tee would be made up of committee
chairs and representatives, and will
meet within the first month of classes.
The bill was first rad during the
March 27 meeting, and was debated
extensively. Before the bill can be en-
acted, it must be read to the legisla-
tive body three times. Emery is hop-
ing to finish the procedures next
week.
Another item heavily debated
during Monday's meeting was the
placement of polling boxes for the
SGA election run-off. The proposal
passed after tense rounds of positive
and negative debate.
Business has continued as usual
in SGA, appropriations have exceeded
S2,0U0 in the past two weeks. The
Student Occupational Therapy Asso-
ciation received the most funding.
S 1.315 to attend a conference in Colo-
rado.
The Gamma Sigma Sigma consti-
tution was passed as favorably funded;
the constitution was submitted dur-
ing the third SGA meeting last fall.
A proposal for funding a com-
puter lab in Mendenhall Student Cen-
ter was discussed and tabled until next
week. SGA President Ian Eastman is
going to try to secure funding from
student computer and technology fees
before using SGA money to pay for
the employment costs of the computer
center.
Henry Bray, chair of the Rules
and Judiciary Committee read a reso-
lution in support of a North Carolina
General Assembly bill that would re-
quire ECU to play football against the
University of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill and North Carolina State Univer-
sity. The resolution passed with only
one negative vote.

Fans of loud noise, explosions
and death-defying acrobatics will have
an outlet to witness such phenomenon
in Havelock this weekend, when the
Marine Corp Air Station at Cherry
Point puts on an air show and open
house this Saturday. Both civilian and
military aircraft will be featured in the
show, which will include parachutists,
stunt-flying and battle simulations in
an attempt to bring the public a
greater understanding of modem air-
craft technology.
The show will include a perfor-
mance by the world-famous Blue An-
gels FA-18 group and will also feature
the U.S. Navy's F-14 Tomcat and the
U.S. Army's Apache attack helicopter.
According to Sergeant Robert D.
Saul HI, the show will do a great deal
to promote relations between the
USMC and the general community of
eastern North Carolina and will offer
the taxpayers of the region a tremen-
dous opportunity to see their tax dol-
lars at work.
"The Air Show is designed to
open up (Cherry Point) to the gen-
eral public Saul said. "It gives the
people of this area a chance to come
to our air depot and see what we're
all about
In addition to the military aircraft
displayed in the show will be civilian
aviators, including the Red Baron
Acrobatic team, which will demon-
strate the maneuverability of vintage
Stearman biplanes. Julie Clark will fly
a T-34A aircraft, which she piloted in
the Navy during acrobatic training, in
a choreographed routine set to patri-
otic music.

Census shows retirees flocking to NC golf courses
PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) - Sofia
Vasiliou straightened her white visor
and squared off for a precise shot with
her croquet mallet as other retirees
gathered on the Pinehurst Resort's
clipped lawns to watch.
Vasiliou and her husband, Kim, a
retired Marine colonel, are among thou-
sands of retirees who have flocked here
during the past decade.
In fact, the latest U.S. Census
shows that among the top states for
attracting retirees. North Carolina was
the only state where the number of
retirement-age immigrants increased
between 1985 and 1990.
"I'm going to separate those two
lovebirds. They've been playing cozy
Mrs. Vasiliou said as she sent another
couple's ball flying.
The Vasilious and their opponents
in this game. George and Margaret
Kuhasz. belong to Pinehurst Resort's
croquet club. Both couples retired here
to enjoy the area's recreation and mild,
four-season climate.
While sun-belt meccas Flonda and
California remain the most popular
states for retiring Americans, both lost
ground during the 198ns. Meantime.
North Carolina rocketed up from 27th
place in I960 to tilth in the 1990 count
said Charles F. Longino. a professor at
Wake Forest University and Bowman
Gray School of Medicine in Winston-
Salem.
The Census Bureau counts .Ameri-
can movers every 10 years, asking
about movement in the preceding five
years, so the statistics on relocations
cover the last half of each decade.
North Carolina attracted 3.4 per-
cent of the nation's retirement age mov-
ers between 1985 and 1990, Longino
said. Florida remained bounds ahead
with 23.8 percent, but that number was
down from the 26.3 percent the Sun-
shine State attracted between 1975 and
1980.
About 40.000 retirees moved to
North Carolina last year, according to
the American Association of Retired
People IAARP). Most retirees came
from New York, followed by Florida.
Virginia. New Jersey and South Caro-
lina.
June Barbour. a spokeswoman for
the North Carolina Division of Aging,
said most retirees who come to the
state have vacationed here before.
"Twenty-two years ago. I drove
through and said to myself, this is it"
said Kim Vasiliou. who also once was
stationed at Camp Lejeune and New
River Marine Air Station.
"I've been coming to Pinehurst
since 1960 to play golf said George
Kuhasz. who owned a graphic design
firm in New York.
"When it came time to look for a
retirement home. I brought my wife
here. My wife had never played golf,
but when we got on the third hole, my
wife said. George. I could get used to
this very easily "
The average retiree who comes
into North Carolina is young - rang-
ing in age from mid-50s to 60s. Barbour
said. Generally, they are healthy and
well-educated, with at least one college
degree. Most retirees have an income
that is twice the average in the area
they move into.
"They love the climate, they love
the low crime rate and they love the
low taxes Barbour said. "Plus they
find it easy to make friends here.
"And people want to go back to
some kind of roots. They want two or
three acres, some chickens, a small
town. They want this closeness that
probably they don't have in Philadel-
phia or Newark
State MRP director Lloyd Steen
said he chose to leave New Jersey and
retire in Hendersonville for the moun-
tain landscape and mild climate as well
as the friendly community The state's
western mountains continue to he the
most popular retirement spot, followed
by the coast.
Steen had visited western North
Carolina about 10 years before he re-
tired.
"I just came to the mountains
once and fell in love with them he
said.
Retirees in turn contribute not
only to economic development in North
Carolina, but to communities
A telephone survey of 630 retir
ees in western North Carolina, re-
ported to the Appalachian Regional
Commission in January, found that the
retirees spent an average oi 533.000
per household a year at local busi-
nesses and bought home's worth an
average of SI09.000.
The average retiree household's
overall impact on the local economy
was $71,600 a year, which created
about 1.5 jobs per year, said the study's
main author. Bill Haas, a sociology
professor at the University of North
Carolina at Asheville.
A 1992 study on retirees living in
the state's coastal areas found they
bought slightly more expensive homes.
The median value of retirees home
purchases was nearly $150,000 in
Carteret County and $125,000 in
Brunswick County.
O astal retirees also spent an av-
erage of $35,000 per household in lo-
cal purchases, according to the study
author Gordon Bennett, a geography
professor at INC-Greensboro.
Steen said most retirees also vol-
unteer in their communities.
"I don't think there's enough
money in the Treasury to meet all the
human needs they help meet" he said.
A 1989 survey by Haas found that
nearly 78 percent of western North
Carolina retirees volunteered an aver-
age of about eight hours a wtek.
Barbour said that while the state
hasn't extensively advertised North
Carolina as a retirement spot it is more
than glad they have come.
"They're good citizens she said.
"I just don't know how we can do any
better.
Education on Clinton's list
(AP) - President Clinton said
Monday that education spending is
vital to the nation's security and
cutting school programs now
"would be just as dangerous as it
would have been for us to disarm
in the Cold War
Lamenting Republican plans to
trim spending for school lunch, col-
lege loan, anti-drug, national ser-
vice and other education programs,
Clinton said, "This is not rocket sci-
ence. This is basic. This is America's
future
He made the remarks at Arkan-
sas State University, where he
helped commemorate the opening
of the Dean B. Ellis library in north-
east Arkansas.
The speech was part of his
strategy to shame budget-slashing
Republicans into backing off plans
to reduce spending on education.
He broadcast his weekly radio ad-
dress Saturday from a Little Rock,
Ark school, decrying the "new
rage of no government" in Wash-
ington.
Surrounded on a small stage
bv old friends from the Arkansas
political scene, Clinton said, "If we
walk away from education, when
the 21st century depends on what
we know and what we can learn, it
would be just as dangerous as it
would have been for us to disarm
in the middle of the Cold War. We
didn't do that, and we shouldn't do
this
The speech interrupted what
has mostly been a relaxing long
weekend for Clinton. He plans to
leave Jonesville. Arkansas Tuesday
morning, after postponing his de-
parture for Washington long
enough to catch the University of
Arkansas basketball team on tele-
vision tonight.

Staff Writer
ECU faculty and staff helped
sponsor a ceremony commemorat-
ing the 125th anniversary of Gen-
eral Robert Edward Lee's only visit
to his daughter Annie's grave.
The ceremony, which took
place on Wednesday, March 29, was
held at the original burial site for
Annie Carter Lee, which is approxi-
mately 11 miles south of Warrentori
on route US 401.
The master of ceremonies was
Mr. Frank B. Powell III, Com-
mander, North Carolina Division,
Sons of Confederate Veterans. Fol-
lowing Powell's remarks, Professor
John Patterson of ECU'S depart-
ment of communication and asso-
ciate editor of the North Carolina
Literary Review read from "Gen-
eral Robert Edward's Lee's Visit to
the Graveside of Annie Carter Lee
on March 29, 1870 which was
written by Daniel Wilson Barefoot.
"Lee is a very important part
of Southern history Patterson
said. "He needs to be remembered
The death of General Lee was
then examined by Dr. Richard Page
Hudson, Jr former chief Medical
Examiner for the State of North
Carolina. Hudson gave a modern in-
terpretation on General Lee's medi-
cal reports, suggesting that Lee
died of a stroke, Patterson said.

poem by Mary Bayard Devereuex
Clarke, entitled "Annie Lee
The ceremony was originally
going to be sponsored by the North
Carolina Department of Cultural
Resources, which had asked ECU
for help. Sparrow feels that ECU
was chosen for help because ECU
has "faculty with expertise about
virtually any aspect of North Caro-
lina
Due to the fact the North Caro-
lina General Assembly was working
on its budget, the members of the
Department of Cultural Resources
felt they could not leave Raleigh,
Sparrow said.
Instead of seeing the anniver-
sary missed, members of the ECU
faculty, including Dr. Patterson,
went ahead with the idea.
Patterson said that t! i Department
of Cultural Resources was glad that
ECU decided to go ahead with the
ceremony.
The ceremony went well and
was attended by about 100 people,
including ECU communication stu-
dents Tara Conrad and Kathryn
Faison, Patterson said.
Sparrow said there was noth-
ing racist about the ceremony. He
noted that Lee did not own any
slaves and that ther are no racial
implications in the confederate
general's documents. Sparrow said
ECU's participation was aservice

The former World Acrobatic
Champion, Lou Loudenslager, will
push the limits of his Bud Light 200
acrobatic aircraft in an exhibition
flight. The Misty Blues, an all-female
parachute squad, will perform a para-
chute routine that has brought them
national attention. The "Shock Wave
a jet-powered semi-truck, will make a
run at the show and is expected to
reach its world-record land speed in
excess of 300 mph.
In what may prove to be the
highlight of the show, the Air
Ground Task Force will fly through
a battlefield simulation in order to
demonstrate the function of each
Marine Corp element. In addition to
the ground forces, the demonstration
will feature such military aircraft as
the EA-6B Prowler, the FA-18 Hor-
net, the AV-8B Harrier jet and the C-
130 Hercules cargorefueler aircraft.
Helicopters will also play a prominent
role in this demonstration.
The engineers at the air station
have set up a special effects program
to try to make the battlefield dem-
onstration look and sound realistic.
This includes explosives wired into
the landscape and fuel set to bum
that will make the mock bombs
dropped by the airplane look like
their more effective and real coun-
terparts.
According to Saul, the base ex-
pects in excess of 75,000 people to
come to the show, but said that be-
cause of proper planning, he antici-
pates no parking problems or delays.
"I would urge everyone to get
there as close to 9:30 as possible
he said. "There will be plenty of dis-
plays and souvenirs that will defi-
nitely give everyone a lot to do. There
will be a great deal of food and re-
freshments available. This will be a
great opportunity for everyone to
come out and have a good time and
participate in the open house tour
and see the flying events. It's going
to be a fantastic show
Gates at the Air Station will be
open to the public from 9:30 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. Admission is free of charge.

"I will be making one of the first

be encouraging other SGA members
to make some of the first contribu-
tions
Jones said that seniors can pick
up pledge cards at the Alumni Cen-
ter, located in TaylorSlaughter
House on the corner of Fifth and
Biltmore Street or at the last senior
program activity. Barefoot on the
Mall. The first 500 seniors to show
up with their purple pirate pass will
receive an AlumAid canister which
will contain such things as ECU
alumni bumper stickers and key
chains as well as a pledge card.
Also, during the first two weeks
of April, the challenge members will
be calling seniors for pledges in a
telethon.
Tami Gardner, assistant director
of alumni relations for programs and
chapter development, said the chat
lenge and the senior program activi-
ties are to give seniors a class iden-
tity and a sense of school loyalty and
pride.
"What we are trying to do is
teach students that once you be-
come an alumnus, your school will
ask for your support because so
many of our students are here on
some kind of loan, some kind of
scholarship, some kind of financial
aid said Gardner. "They can put
back what they receive
Gardner said the senior pro-
gram and senior class gift effort
have been started with the class of
1995 but plans and hopes that both
programs will continue to grow with
each new senior class.
As for the senior program as a
whole, Jones said she was pleased
with the turnout. About 50 per-
cent to ()0 percent of the senior
class, including some who graduated
in December, got their pirate passes
and have participated in the activi-
ties. She said this is a high level of
participation for a first year pro-
gram.
"It's been great this year Jones
said. "We plan to have it continue
and get bigger and better every
year
Gardner said that seniors who
still do not have their passes but dt
have 96 or more hours can get them
at the Alumni Center or at tht Bare-
foot on the Mall activity and still be
eligible for the grand prize. She also
said that students who will still be
seniors next year can get a new pi-
rate pass along witli the new seniors.
Students who want to work with
the ECU Ambassadors and the senior
program are asked to sign up to be-
come an ambassador next fall.

introduced a resolution in hopes of
clarifying exactly what SGA will and
will not fund for.
The March 27 meeting hosted
positive and negative debate over the
proposal.
Conrad read the resolution aloud
and stated that everyone would be
eligible for the awards. SGA has tra-
ditionally denied funding for plaques
or awards to organizations because
the awards would constitute personal
gain. Senior class President Bill Gheen
added a "friendly amendment" saying
that individual organizations outside
of SGA would not be allowed funding
for plaques or awards.
Gheen made a resolution during
Monday's meeting that the Graduate
Student Organization receive their fair
share of funding. This was prompted
by an earlier discussion and resolu-
tions which would prohibit the use of
student funds for graduate students
to fill academic requirements. The
confusion was drawn from whether or
not any such funding would consti-
tute personal gain.
Five new applicants have been
approved and added to the legislature
over the past two weeks.
Lucy Goodwin, chair of the
Screenings and Appointments Com-
mittee made an announcement con-
cerning the Safety Net Program. She
said it was similar to the Big Brother
Big Sister Program for incoming fresh-
men. She said the program is being
organized through Student Leader-
ship Development Programs.
SGA members are planning to cu'
lose this week by meeting at BW3

Dr. Brian Haynes, director of mi-
nority student affairs, said the office
is very excited about the exhibition
and has found funding for the display
cases.
"I have seen some slides and I'm
extremely impressed with the Jankton
collection Haynes said. "The exhibi-
tion will not only bring notoriety to
campus and the School of Art but to
the African American Cultural Cen-
ter as well
Haynes said this is important
because this will help to connect Afri-
can American students, especially, to
the cultural center.
"In view of the sides, it's a collec-
tion of African Art but as you well
know African Americans came from
Africa so there is that natural tie
Haynes said.
Dorsey said that he hopes that
the exhibition will provide an oppor-
tunity for the campus to be exposed
to the richness of African art.
"I hope that it will illustrate the
rich art and artifacts that are avail-
able, particularly in Zaire, but the
whole African continent Dorsey said.
"It's amazing really, the full range of
art that will be on display and, it will
also show that these things are utili-
tarian and really a part of a way of
life. I think it is not just overwhelm-
ing and dazzling, but also, it would
be quite educational.

Michael Jordan
is back, in case
you've been with
the other
sequestered
individuals out
there in Cali. He
exceeds all
definitions of the
perfect athlete,
and boasts statue
look-alikes to
boot. But don't
you feel bad for
the other guys
who have thrown
themselves up-
court and down-
court all season
only to be
upstaged
ultimately by a
guy who soars in
at the last
minute? Nah, we
don't either.
He's back.
What more can you say?
The King of the NBA is back at full strength after a 17-
month hiatus from his "main" sport to try out professional
baseball, a vacation in which he didn't find the same degree of
success.
Chicago's opponents are now paying for it. The "Air" of
old has returned, hitting game-winning, last-second shots in
pre-White Sox fashion, much to the delight of sold-out crowds
everywhere. The Bulls' front-office brass have got to love it.
The same thing that happened when His Royal Baldness
announced he would give baseball a try happened again - he
singlehandedly rejuvenated a slowly-sinking sport.
Shaq has been the closest we've come to a "Jordanesque"
character on the NBA hardwood, but since he is a big man, it's
just not the same. Besides, Shaq doesn't have a highway named
after him. No one else picked up the slack during the Mike-
free days of pro hoops.
As soon as Jordan showed up at practice with head coach
Phil Jackson and the boys of the Windy City, fans nationwide
scurried to TicketMaster offices, scarfing up tickets in every
stadium that will be graced with Jordan's prescence for the
remainder of the season.
There's a new beast of the East in the '95 NBA, and it's the
1993 Chicago Bulls. Although a few faces have changed,
Jordan's return has prompted the old "unstoppable" attitude
to permeate through the Bulls' new United Center locker room
like the smell of the Chicago-style pizza from the stands above.
Who else goes to work every day and comes face-to-face
with a statue in his likeness outside his "office then enters
the arena to see his first jersey (the old 23) hanging in the
rafters above?
Scottie Pippen's problems with Coach Jackson and the rest
of the squad have been laid to rest, and he seems more content
now that, with Jordan's return, the attention previously fo-
cused on him 24 hours a day has been reduced to a sideshow
to the Jordan circus.
Jackson is happy as well, now that his big gun is back, and
his hoops veision of the "Big Red Machine" is climbing effi-
ciently up the NBA standings.
Opposing teams and players have half-heartedly enjoyed
the return of the Great One to the hardwood, especially the
ones who don't have to face Jordan one-on-one, with time rurj;
ning out and the game on the line.
Now here's the question. If Jordan's Bulls can race through
the playoffs and reclaim their lofty perch above the NBA elite,
will Mike trade in the Jordans for baseball cleats and report to
the White Sox?
As a hobby, of course.
A rabbit, neon eggs

SSo what is Easter really all
about anyway? Sure, we get Friday off,
but other than that, it is a holiday that
has lost much of its meaning in re-
cent years. The origins of the holiday
take root in the supposed resurrec-
tion from the dead of a simple holy
man from some obscure town in Is-
rael.
F say supposed because this is the
crux on which all Christianity is based.
If the resurrection could be histori-
cally disproved, then all of Christian-
ity falls in its wake.
For centuries many distinguished
philosophers have assaulted Christian-
ity as being absurd, irrational or just
plain superstitious. But in order to be
scientifically and historically accurate,
it is imperative that the evidence is
investigated from a rational perspec-
tive. Then we can be confident in our
assessment of that moment in history.
The resurrection of Jesus should be
viewed apart from any religious pre-
supposition, and as part of history
(just as someone would look into the
life of Hitler or Caesar).
With that in mind, and religion
firmly out of the way, it becomes ap-
parent that the evidence for his res-
urrection is overwhelming. Check out
just one of the facts surrounding the
case.
There are four written accounts,
either by eyewitnesses or men relat-
ing the accounts of eyewitnesses
much in the same way a newspaper
eporter will investigate a story). Pro-
essor F.F. Bruce of the University of
Manchester said, "Had there been any
endency to depart from the facts in
Shane Deike

Jesus should be
seen just like
Hitler or Caesar.
any material respect the possible pres-
ence of hostile witnesses in the audi-
ence would have served as a further
corrective In other words, if they
were lying, they would have been
busted.
They could not make such claims
without the society investigating for
the truth. Just think, if we had four
eyewitnesses for the OJ. trail, the
whole thing would have been over
months ago. (The New Testament
does not claim four witnesses, but
over 500).
And these accounts are histori-
cally reliable. Over 24,000 copies of
early New Testament manuscripts are
know to be in existence today. Pro-
fessor Clark Pinnace of McMaster
University said, "There exists no
document from the ancient world,
witnessed by so excellent a set of tex-
tual and historical testimonies. .
F.F. Bruce said, "If the New Testa-
ment were a collection oi secular
writings, their authenticity would
generally be regarded as beyond all
doubt
When you couple these bits of
information with what Jesus says
about himself, you have a case for
the most extraordinary man in his-
tory. In a period of three years he
managed to influence the world more
than any other man before or after
him (just look at the date at the top
of this paper - 1,995 years since his
birth). Just a few of his claims are
enough to get anyone into a heated
discussion. He claimed to be God. He
claimed to be the only way to have
eternal life. He claimed to forgive
sins. He said he would rise from the
dead, and he said he is coming back.
I do not know about you, but if
a guy is going to make claims like
that, he is either a fruitcake, or he
had better be able to back them up.
Many people claim that Jesus is a
good teacher. Funny, I would not
refer to someone who calls himself
God as being a good teacher. A loony
maybe, or a pathological liar indeed,
but definitely not a good teacher -
he did not even claim that himself.
But if he claimed to be God and then
rose from the dead - that would get
my attention.
Of course, if Jesus did rise from
the dead, then the implications are
much greater than just an event in
history. Someone who makes those
kinds of claims and them pulls them
off deserves more than just a causual
glance. We had better look at what
he had to say - he may very well have
the answers to life itself.

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to the
article, published in the Feb. 21 edi-
tion of the TEC, entitled "AIDS
changes sexual habits I feel this is a
very strong article. I agree with many
of its points but I regret that I have
found a major misconception.
The article has intense points of
how AIDS has changed the rules in
the bedroom. Many surveys offer
strong statistics of this fact People
have now opened their eyes to reality
and faced the facts. They use more
products that promote safer sex, have
fewer partners or even just abstain-
ing from sex entirely. All of these sta-
tistics were released from a meeting
of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science.
These are fine points but in the
article Feinleib is quoted to say- "that
people respond to the idea that sex is
potentially a life or death decision
But it appears that he contradicts him-
self by making the statement the 75
percent of the population is at such a
low risk of AIDS that they probably
do not need to alter their sex prac-
tices.
His research is good but making
the statement that some people lack
the need to change their sex habits
leads you to believe that having un-
protected sex with various partners
is acceptable. We all have heard, seen,
read, or maybe even know someone
with this virus, and it only takes one
time with one person to catch this
presently incurable virus.

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to the
article written by Calvin Arrington in
the February 21 issue of the East
Carolinian. I couldn't agree more with
the statements he made about abor-
tion.
Like a lot of others, I do not be-
lieve in abortion as a method of birth
control. However, as a woman I do
feel I have complete rights to what I
do or do not do to my body.
Although my feelings on the is-
sue have always been Pro-Choice, I do
believe that Pro-Lifers have the right
to voice their opinions about the is-
sue, also. But they have no right to
infringe on others rights to do what
they believe is right. And they abso-
lutely have no right to jeopardize the
health or lives of those people enter-
ing abortion clinics or the doctors per-
forming the operations.
I could be wrong, but I do not
recall many stories of Pro-Choicers
shooting or murdering any Pro-Lifers
picketing these clinics. If they (Pro-
Lifers) believe it is wrong to "murder"
an unborn baby, why do they think it
is okay to attack or murder the pa-
tients and doctors involved in abor-
tions?
In conclusion, I would like to
thank Calvin for taking abortion for
what is is- a legal operation. I would
like to ask everyone to look at abor-
tion not as the murdering of an un-
born child, but as a way to help a
woman making a difficult personal
decision.

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to the
Traffic complaint that criticizes the
entire Greenville community. It
seems as though Andi Phillips
thinks no one is perfect, he com-
plains that everyone drives slow and
are never in a hurry. This leads me
to believe that he is really bothered
by this. I would classify his person-
ality as a Type A.
Lots of people get punished for
driving too fast. Why does A. Phillips
criticize people who drive a little un-
der the speed limit? Another criti-
cism that he makes is that when a
traffic light turns green, it takes a
little time for the cars to start mov-
ing. Has he ever considered that an
elderly person is behind the wheel
and their reflexes are not quite as
fast as his?
Another point that A. Phillips
brings up is the questions they ask
when you go to get your NC drivers
license. He says that there are four
questions related to minimum speed
limits and only one related to ex-
ceeding the limit everywhere he
goes and has never got a ticket then,
"Good Going for Andi
If driving with caution avoids
accidents for the people who drive
a little slower than the limit then I
respect them for their decision. In
my opinion, I think you are the one
who needs to slow down!

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to an
article, from Feb. 21st, about Repub-
licans idea of having interest on col-
lege loans while students are in
school. I agree with Larry Freeman
one hundred percent. Students have
enough problems paying back what
money is already owed, how are they
supposed to pay that and the inter-
est that is being tacked on while they
are in school. Most of the students
at educational institutions are receiv-
ing some kind of financial aid, and
some of them have loans that they
will be paying for the next ten to fif-
teen years. If college students pay
more for the loans and the govern-
ment reaps the rewards of our hard-
ships, this will only end up hurting
the nation in it's quest for better
education. With interest being added
to loans this may turn some students
off to going to college. Though
$1,000 dollars isn't much to some, it
makes a difference to people like me,
who are paying their own way
through college. In my case, I will be
receiving loans for all four years of
my schooling here and at graduate
school. I am the one who will be pay-
ing for it, and at this point, I know if
interest were tacked on I would have
to reconsider going to graduate
school. I know this issue will make a
difference on how I vote in the next
election.

Shakespeare gets
standing ovation
Jennifer Coleman
Staff Writer
"Do not fear greatness. Some
are born great, some achieve great-
ness, and some have greatness
thrust upon them
That line comes from my favor-
;ite play, William Shakespeare's
Twelfth Night. And although
Shakespeare's plays are generally
considered the most difficult for
young actors to do, 1 believe that in
their production of this wonderful
comedy the ECU Playhouse has in-
deed achieved greatness.
From beginning to end, this
play was a joy to watch. It is one
thing to read a play and love it, but
it is an entirely different thing to
watch that play come to life before
your very eyes. The set was simply
magnificent. ECU's scenic designer
Robert Alpers has outdone himself
this time. The main focus on the
stage was the two-story country
house that, with a few simple
changes, served as both the Duke's
Palace and Olivia's house. I loved
the fact that the actors could use
both levels as well as the interior of
the house. It made the play seem
much more real to me. s

should also be commended. I was
especially impressed with the thun-
derstorm during the shipwreck
scene when Viola first arrived in
Ulyria. But the standing ovation
goes to costume
designer Nelson
Fields. The cos-
tumes were ex-
quisite. I would
like to mention in
particular Olivia's
wedding dress,
which was per-
fectly stunning.
The audience
seemed to like
Malvolio's night-
gown also, as it re-
ceived quite a few
laughs.
Even though
the set, lights and costumes for
Twelfth Night were wonderful, the
show would not have been a success
without the hard work of director
John Shearin and the cast. I was
very impressed by the performances

of several of the actors.
Comedy is perhaps the most dif-
ficult of all theatrical genres to per-
form. However, Ryan Holsopple (Sir
Andrew Aguecheek) and Jeff Hirsch
(Sir Toby Belch)
seem to have per-
fected the art. I
enjoyed their per-
formances im-

Okay, if you are one of those
people who participates in those
disgusting public displays of affec-
tion (PDA), don't read this, be-
cause I don't want to get shot.
It seems that with the ap-
proach of spring, people are fall-
ing into the trap of falling all over
each other, and it is gross. There
is nothing I hate more than see-
ing people kissing and making out
at every opportunity they get. The
other day, I was standing outside
of The Student Stores with some
friends, and I saw this couple. Not
only did they slobber all over each
other before the girl went inside,
but when she came out after buy-
ing a drink (and hopefully some
condoms) they proceeded to al-
most rip off each others clothes
in some wild fit of passion. I was
praying that she would spill her
drink all over herself so they
would stop, but it didn't happen.
Come on, people! Haven't you
ever heard of something called
good taste and respect for others?
It's one thing to hold hands or
give a kiss on the cheek. That's
all nice and sappy, but to rip off
each other's clothes in public is
another thing entirely.
What makes these disgusting
displays of affection so important
to you? Is sucking face and touch-
ing various body parts in front of
a crowd of people your way of
showing us that you're a couple?
There are other ways of showing
affection without all of the saliva.

Three Wishes
Trent Giardino
Staff Writer
See BUCKET page 15
This recording is very beauti-
ful. Shannon Worrell's debut album
Three Wishes combines the talents
of several guest musicians along
with the unlikely gathering of cello,
bagpipes, mandolin, banjo, sax, gui-
tar and her poetic style of writing
to form an intricate musical land-
scape, which she playfully runs
over, touching each feature in the
scene. In this album, Shannon lets
the listener do the same thing, but
it is the landscape inside her head.
Shannon Worrell was raised in
the Blue Ridge Mountains and has
been performing live since she was
17. Along the wav she met a few
musicians who offered their talents
on her album. David Matthews and
Kristin Ashbury, friends of hers,
give guest vocals on a few songs.
Dave Matthews' vocals on
"Eleanor" offers a distinctive coun-
terpoint to Shannon's style of sing-
ing. Shannon also credits Matthews
with being the only one who be-
lieved in her music when nobody
else even wanted to hear it Three
Wishes also includes string ar-
rangements by cellist Matt Tilford.
This instrument at times adds a
melancholy tone to the presence of
the songs he plays on.
Shannon credits her creative
writing professors at the University
of Virginia for helping her tum her

Mad Season

Kris Hoffler
Staff Writer
Seattle just doesn't seem to
want to go away. Grunge has been
the butt of many of my friend's
jokes, but that is more of the
media's and MTV's fault than the
musicians who create the stuff.
There are many Seattle bands that
are a long way from being grunge.
Take the intelligent gothic metal of
Alice In Chains for example. There
are many different strains of music
coming out of Seattle these days,
and Mad Season is one of the lat-
est
Mad Season is sort of a compi-
lation band. The talents of many dif-
ferent bands have come together to
make this group. For a lead singer
they recruited Layne Staley (Alice
In Chains) with his menacing yet
harmonic voice. The rest of the band
is compiled of members of Pearl
Jam, Soundgarden and the like. I
can't really tell you who is from
where or who plays what because
of the lack of a record company bi-
ography sheet, but I can tell you
that the music is good.
Let's start with the first single
on the release, "River of Deceit"
This is a soft little tune about self-
hatred and deception. Staley
croons, "My pain is self chosen At
least f believe it to be I could ei-
ther drown Or pull off my skin and

playing board games
Many childhood
favorites are still
available, and fun
Christina Pokrzewinski
Staff Writer
My recent regression into child-
hood has turned me on to yet another
kid-craze. First it was comic books,
then my groovy Sesame Street
lunchbox and now board games. Yes
kids, America's pastime is making a
comeback, and some of your child-
hood favorites are still out there for
the playing. There are even a few new
ones that your closet will not be com-
plete without.
Go To the Head of the Class: This
classic kid's game has been around
since we were all watching Romper
Room, and it has gotten more fun as
the years go by. The game board is a
series of classrooms, each with its own
subject. Each time you land in a new
desk, you must answer a question
about that subject. You can choose
the difficulty level of the questions
you have to answer. Levels range from
elementary to scholar. If you cannot
answer a question in your category,
you can choose
to be asked a
question from

Life: It had
been years since
I last played a
game of Life, but
the game is
pretty much the
same as it always was. The board is
an obstacle course of bills, lotteries
and children. You buy a house, get
married and can probably even have
a mid-life crisis, if you play the way I
do. The game tokens are station wag-
ons with little colored pegs represent-
ing boys and girls. The overall object
of the game is to retire a millionaire,
but most of the time I just end up in
the desperately poor house. Despite
the inevitable loss of the game, I loved
it. What other game lets you borrow
college money, have twins twice, get
fired and pay astronomical taxes? Wait
a second, don't answer that. 2-6 play-

Dr. Seuss tribute rocks Peasant's

Have you heard a band recently
that had a sound so different you
couldn't even think of anyone with
whom to compare them? Last Friday
night, Peasant's Cafe debuted to
Greenville such a band: On Beyond
Zee. As uncharted as the Alaskan
plains, their sound will struggle for
mainstream acceptance but is a breath
of fresh air to the open-minded.
For the last two and a half years,
On Beyond Zee's future dwindled in
uncertainty as founding member and
pianist J.P. Powell, found himself start-
ing from the ground up when his co-
founder chose to pursue other inter-
ests in New York City. The classically-
trained piano virtuoso joined with
lead vocalist Charlton Phaneuf. and
together they surrounded themselves
with a rhythm section that would truly
showcase all their talent as musicians.
Throughout the night, the band
played a number of songs off their
debut CD, Mush, as well as two in-
teresting choices for covers. The band
played an acoustic version of Jane
Addiction's "Jane Says" that had the
mellow crowd tapping their feet and
singing along under their breath.
They also showed their talent as sto-
rytellers by performing an inspira-
tional and unconventional musical
version of the Dr. Seuss classic Sam
I Am. The band derives their name
from another Dr. Seuss favorite. On
Beyond Zebra. So it only seemed
natural for the band to show their
appreciation in such an artistic man-
ner.
The band began to get some at-
tention from the crowd when
frontman Phaneuf took off his gui-
tar, gave a flurry of hip thrusts and
danced about in front of the stage.
With bassist Bonini thumping along
while sitting on a barstool. the pair
even got attention from the people
in the back enthralled in heavy con-
versation.
The audience slowly but surely
got into OBZ's style over the progres-
sion of the evening. The band's sound
began as background music for the
audience, but it ended as a feature
attraction. Even if you don't enjoy
their sound, you have to admire this
band's musical talent.

come together today to show
their commitment to the
end of violence The
ECU Sexual As-
sault Committee

Studies Alliance
are co-sponsor-
ing a Take Back m
The Night
March in order to
raise campus
awareness about vio-
lence.
Violence and anger
are rising issues of concern in
our community. In 1991. the U.S. At-
torney General reported that the
leading cause of injury to women was
battering. Furthermore, the FBI es-
timates that wife beating is the most
frequently occurring crime in the
country. Another staggering statis-
tic indicates that one in three women
will be raped in their lifetime. Due
to the frequency of violence against
women and a rise in violent attacks
against men. it is time that we edu-
cate and support each other to put
an end to the victimization.
Since women have been the re-
cipients of most of the violence, they
have been socialized and educated
to take many steps to protect them-
selves For instance, women walk in
groups, carry their keys in their
hands as a weapon, carry mace and
pepper spray and walk in well-lit ar-
eas. Unfortunately, men have not
been schooled in the same tech-
niques. As a result, men are increas-
ingly becoming the targets of violent
attacks and robberies.
Clearly, education and commu-
nication are essential for both men
and women, if we are to stop the vio-
lence. Take the responsibility to learn
preventative measures to protect
yourself and the ones that you
ove. Think of a route
or course of action

Watch out for
head injuries
NEW YORK (AP) - A blow to the
head that knocks you out can raise your
chance of getting Alzheimer's disease-
someday, but only if you carry a particu-
lar gene, a study suggests.
Elderly people who had had a se-
vere blow to the head and carried the
gene were Id times as likely to have
Alzheimer's as were people with neither
risk factor. A head injury alone, without
the gene, did not raise the risk.
The gene might act on a head in-
jury by turning a normal repair process
into a step toward disease, said Dr. Rich-
ard Mayeux. a professor of neurology,
psychiatry and epidemiology at Colum-
bia t'niversity in New York.
Head injury and the gene. apo-E4.
had each been linked separately to
Alzheimer's risk in prior studies. Mayeux
and colleagues published the new results
in this month's issue of the journal Neu-
rology.
"It's actually a very' important pa-
per because it sheds light n how head
injury promotes Alzheimer's, said Dr.
James Mortimer, associate director of the
Geriatric Research. Education and Clini-
cal Center at the Veterans Affairs Medi-
cal Center in Minneapolis
Walter Kukull, an epidemiologist at
the University of Washington in Seattle
who is studying Alzheimer's, cautioned
that the conclusions must be considered
tentative because relatively few study
participants had a head injury plus the
gene. But the idea that apo-E4 could
team up with a head injury to raise the
risk of Alzheimer's is plausible, he said.
Although head injury would ac-
count for only a small fraction of
Alzheimer's cases, the new research is
valuable tor its insight into how genes
and environment might work together
to produce the disease, he said.
The study included 113 Alzheimer's
patients and 123 healthy elderly people
who were matched to the patients by age.
gender and ethnic group. Spouses or
other relatives of patients were asked if
the patients had been knocked uncon-
scious more than two years before the
disease began: the healthy people were
asked if they had been similarly hurt at
least two years before the interview.
The study found'
-Compared with people with nei-
ther the gene nor a history of head in-
jury, participants who had only the gene
ran twice the risk of being diagnosed
with Alzheimer's.
-The 15 participants who had the
injury but not the gene showed no in-
crease in risk.
-The eight participants who had the
injury plus the gene ran a 10-fold risk.
Mayeux said the reason might in-
vi ike the brain's reaction to serious head
blows. Prior research found that in about
one-third of people who die shortly after
a severe head injury, the brain shows
deposits of a substance called beta amy-
loid. These deposits apparently come in
response to the injury Mayeux said.
Beta amyloid deposits also appear
in brains of Alzheimer's patients, al-
though scientists are still debating
whether they cause the disease.
The apo-E4 gene tells the body how
to make a protein that binds relatively
tightly to beta amyloid. This binding may
encourage beta amyloid deposits to form
after a head injury, which in turn may
promote Alzheimer's. Mayeux said.

GAMES from page 11
yet hard-to-win game. Up to four
teams. Big Fun Games, Inc. Grade: B
Pay Day: The classic "where does
all the money go game" has a new
look and new cards. The board is a
giant calendar with certain doom
awaiting your money at least once a
week. There are bills, Monster Charges
and Deal cards. If your Deal cards
amount to more than your bills, you
make money. If not, you can take out
a loan to pay your bills off so that the
next time around the calendar you can
try to make enough money to win.
Despite the fact that my roommate
beats me almost every time, it is a very
fun game. 2-6 players. Parker Broth-
ers. $12.98. Grade: A
Taboo: I love this game! Players
are given cards with a word and a list
of words they cannot say while trying
to get their teammates to guess the
word. If the person trying to describe
the word uses any of the words on
the list a watcher from the other team
gets to buzz him with a really loud,
obnoxious buzzer. Lots of yelling and
an annoying buzzer ? what could be
more fun? 24 teams. Milton Bradley.
$19.98. Grade: A
Outburst: Quick, off the top of
your head, name as many words that
rhyme with "head" as you can in 30
seconds. Sounds easy enough, nght?
Wrong. The categories are a little
hard, and the rules a bit confusing,
but the game is still fun overall. My
suggestion to you is to get on a team
with smart people if you could not
come up with the words that rhyme
with head. Two players or teams.
Hersh Games. $22.98. Grade: C
Monopoly: The king of board
games is still available. You know the
drill: Run desperately around the
board, buy property and try not to
land on Park Place. The playing pieces
are pretty much the same. The car,
the thimble and all your other child-
hood pals are there, and they're still
made of metai! A training ground for
slum lords, Monopoly still takes three
days to play, but boy is it ever fun.
Milton Bradley. Grade: B
So next time you and the gang
cannot think of anything to do. or you
are tired of the downtown scene, go
to the store and grab yourself a board
game. They're not just for kids any-
more.
JYLA.LJ from page 11
beautiful shell for all to see The
song borders on a ballad, but the lyr-
ics keep it from being that. The gui-
tar softly picks out a hollow tune,
with a quiet back drop provided by
the bass and some subdued drum-
ming - a very good tune.
Retro music is in full swing these
days, and this album is no exception.
Black Sabbath is a definite presence
here, but Led Zepplin is the most ob-
vious influence. Mad Season cranks
out some really slow and heavy blues
tunes that sound much like Zepplin,
but in a very good way. They do the
style justice.
"Artificial Red" is one such song.
The drumming in this song is very
much in the tradition of John
Bonham, very heavy and powerful
blues drumming: "When the Levee
Breaks" comes to mind. The bass fel-
lows the standard 12-bar blues pro-
gression, and the lead guitar stays
subdued during the verses but wails
to excess in the chorus and solos.
Staley's voice is tortured and just per-
fect for the song; he adds much to
the album and seems to really show
more of his talent here than he did
with Alice In Chains.
"Long Gone Day" is sort of an
unplugged tune with some bongo ac-
tion and a little sax interspersed with
the bass, vibes and guitar. At times
it sounds like soft lounge music, but
the tone shifts to an eerie feel and
then back to the lounge. Like most
of the songs on this album, the lyr-
ics are about despair, loss, emptiness
and addiction. Very dark and haunt-
ing.
The opening track seems to set
the tone for the whole CD. "Wake Up"
starts slow and builds to a full tilt rock.
The tempo for the disc is generally
slow and more akin to the blues than
grunge or even modern rock. Even
listening to it the first time, the songs
sounded very familiar. Mad Season is
exploring an aspect of rock that many
bands make an attempt at and fall
short of anything worth listening to.
I doubt this album will do that
well despite its outright quality. The
reason I say that is because it's intel-
ligent music in a genre that often
tends to be superfluous. If you are
going to imitate Zepplin you had bet
ter understand what you're up against
These gentlemen have taken on that
task and excelled at it This is a very
dark and introspective CD; the music
is generally heavy and slow and has a
subtle gothic feel to it Staley's lyrics
and vocals are fit perfectly to the
music and complete the general dark
feel of this 10-track release. Mad
Season's Above comes highly recom-
mended.

"adolescent soul babble" into poetry,
which finally translated into these
well-crafted songs. She takes her own
personal experiences and creates
songs that are accessible to a larger
audience. When listening to her
voice, you can picture the words as
they stir feelings from inside. Shan-
non uses a conglomeration of styles,
and if you can imagine Nanci Griffith
and Liz Phair agreeing on a certain
"sound you would have Shannon
Worrell's style in a nutshell.
This album was very thought
provoking. One of the more moving
songs "See Jane brilliantly uses pi-
ano, cello and guitar to blend with
the voices of Shannon and Dave
Matthews. In this tune, she expresses
her love for her daughter and speaks
of how her daughter is the only one
holding her together sometimes.
Due to the very laid-back and
soothing tone of this album, I let it
play twice through and didn't even
realize it had been on that long.
Some of the songs captured my mood
and turned it to fit the music. It was
really strange that her music was able
to do that for me, but I was pleased.
Shannon Worrell has the talent to
make a big name for herself, in the
music industry. With her meaning-

Do you people realize that what
you re doing affects others too?
Youlknow that there are going to
be people around that have just bro-
ken off relationships, and it hurts
them to see others being so happy.
Someone said to me one day that
theyfelt like they had been trapped
in the Playboy channel because ev-
ery Jinie they turned around they
saw so many couples kissing, etc.
J'm not asking anyone to
change the way they are to make
others happy, I just want to know
what is so great about PDAs. I guess
I don't understand why you guys
1
can't wait until you get home, or find
some semi-secluded spot where you
can seduce each other. Is there
something fun about annoying all
of us who don't participate in PDA?
Do you think that it makes you look
cool? Do you even realize how you
look to the masses surrounding you?
Well, here's a clue - lame. You
guys might have the impression that
you look like two young lovers and
that what you are doing to each other
in front of us is sooooooo romantic.
I hate to be the one to break it to
you people, but you look like you are
trying to mark your territory. You
also look silly. Instead of hanging all
over each other, why don't you try
just hanging out. It's a lot easier to
talk to each other when your lips
aren't locked together. It's not as if
every kiss is going to be your last. I
would hate to be in the area if it were.
Of course, there is nothing that
I can do to stop all of these public
displays of afft ;tion, and not all of it
is bad. There just happens to be a
fine line between what is and what
is not cool when people are showing
affection toward each other. Young
love is nice, but please, save some
thing for when you get old.

Cox) is pompous, arrogant and gen-
erally disliked by everyone. If
Malvolio is not played right, much
of the humor in his situation can
be lost. Luckily this was not the
case with Cox's Malvolio, who had
the audience rolling in the aisles. I
think my favorite scene in the play
was when Malvolio found the love
letter. This scene was hilarious. The
conspirators Sir Toby, Sir Andrew
and Fabian (Brian Davis) hid be-
hind the second story balcony while
Malvolio roamed the stage below.
Malvolio's monologue as he read
the letter was accented by out-
bursts from the "peanut gallery
so to speak. The result was com-
edy at its best.
With only three women in the
play, Kelly M. Cates (Viola-Cesario),
Heather Melton (Maria) and Thea
Rae Mills (Olivia) were bound to
stand out. However, these three
would have stood out in an all-fe-
male cast thanks to their believable
performances. Cates was fun to
watch throughout the play, whether
she was hiding her love for Orsino
(Justin Allen) or fending off ad-
vances from Olivia. Mills main-
tained Olivia's regal bearing despite
the rather large, though beautiful,
costume she wore. And Melton's
Maria was exactly what she should,
have been - flirtatious, saucy and
lots of fun.
The entire cast did an excellent
job of bringing this play from the
book to the stage. It was fun to
watch and surprisingly easy to fol-
low. I believe that even someone,
not familiar with the play would
enjoy this performance. Out of 10
stars. Twelfth Night rates an eight.

The East Carolinian
Patriots nab series,
ECU blows chances
Brad Oldham
Staff Writer
In a crucial CAA series that
could have brought the ECU base-
ball team a notch higher in the con-
ference, the Pirates dropped two of
three games against rival George
Mason University (GMU) this week-
end at Harrington Field. The Patri-
ots move to 4-2 in the conference,
while the Pirates fall to 3-6. It is the
third straight CAA series the Pirates
have lost, placing them only ahead
of 0-9 William & Mary in the con-
ference race.
We've had numerous chances
to win games ECU head coach
Gary Over ton said after the series.
The bottom line is we didn't
do the things necessary to win. It
was just too many blown opportuni-
ties
In the first game on Saturday.
the Pirates were very timid at the
plate in getting shutout 6-0. The Pa-
triots were led by GMU pitcher Bran-
don Nass, who went the distance for
the Pats in the win. The Hemdon,

Writing for a newspaper isn't
always what it is cracked up to be.
While not akin to brain surgery or
rocket science, it has its own,
que set of pressures and its own
hardships.
Sure, you get to meet a lot of
interesting people with a lot of in-
teresting views and a lot of inter-
esting ways to express them. Great,
(kit you also get to do things that
either aren't interesting at all. or
are a little more interesting than
you'd like them to be
It's always loads of fun to sit
through a university press confer-
ence about funding appropriation.
There is nothing better'than going
to a downtown club and listening
to a band's lead "screamer's" three-
hour pontification about govern-
ment oppression.
hr sitting through one of Steve
Logan's post-game interviews after
a close defeat wondering if this is
the game where he'll snap and
throw a chair.
But having experienced all
these, and now a proud graduate
of ECU's journalism department, I
felt that I could confidently handle
any story thrown at me, any situa-
tion that was presented. I believed
I was ready for anything.
Then I interviewed the Pure
Gold Dancers.
The Dancers, ECU's answer to
the Los Angeles Laker girls, have
become a mainstay for ECU basket-
ball, and could indeed be a reason
for the increase of male attendance
at Pirate home games this year. As
an ambassador group for the uni-
versity, the squad has brought their
high-energy dance routines to the
USMC base at Camp Lejuene and
have graced TV spots for ECU bas-
ketball and local merchants.
So you would expect that these
ladies would have swelled heads
and prima donna attitudes. Not so.
In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to
find a sweeter, more down-to earth
collection of young women any-
where.
You'd also have a hard time
finding a collection that could turn
so "seasoned" a reporter into a
bumbling idiot as fast as they did.

The East Carolinian
Robersonville track home to stock car racing
Tom Earnhardt
Staff Writer
When thinking of stock car rac-
ing, names like Petty, Allison,
Earnhardt and Yarborough come to
mind. Ford, Chevrolet and Pontiac
dominate the manufacturing of the
cars, while sponsors STR Budweiser,
Miller, McDonalds and Goodwiench
have become synonymous with the
sport
Also synonymous with stock car
racing are fabled tracks such as
Daytona, Talladega, Charlotte,
Rockingham and Robersonville.
Robersonville?
Just 20 miles northeast of
Greenville lies a 38-mile banked as-
phalt tri-oval track known as the East
Carolina Motor Speedway (ECMS).
It's no super-speedway like Daytona
and Talladega, but ECMS does have
excitement and good racing.
Every Saturday night, from
March 25 through October 28, driv-
ers take to the track while fans
clamor to the stands to witness stock
car racing at its roots. The crowds
gather each week to hear announcer
Buddy Long call out names like Hank
Jarman, Jeff Harris, Gary Davis and
Phillip Cobb, as these drivers put
their machines and nerves to the test
at ECMS.
Every now and then, fans might
hear a name familiar to all who fol-
low the sport and even some who
don't - Earnhardt. Dale Earnhardt,
Jr. brings his 3 Chevrolet to
Robersonville several times each sea-
son as he follows in the enormous
footsteps of his fa-
ther, seven-time
Winson Cup champ
Dale Earnhardt, Sr.
Stock car racing
has become
America's No. 1 spec-
tator sport. It may be
hard to believe, but
stock car fever has
even infiltrated the
college environment.
Just take a look
around campus. On
any given day, you
are likely to see hats,
shirts, license plates
and bumper stickers
of many different NASCAR racing
teams and drivers.
You might not be aware of it, but
some of you sit right next to an ac-
tive driver two or three times a week.
ECU student Mike Conover competes
frequently at ECMS and other tracks
in the area.
ECMS opened in 1989, and for
less than the price of a concert or
football game ticket, students can wit-
ness the same type of excitement that
has affected millions throughout the
country. ECU students and faculty
receive $2 off the regular $12 admis-
sion price by presenting their I.D. at
the gate.
The track is located 18 miles
north of
Greenville on
Highway 64 in
Robersonville.
Fans can work
there way
around buying
meals at the con-
cession stands
by bringing their
own food and
beverage. Cool-
ers are permit-
ted, but officials
ask that you
don't bring glass
bottles.
Seating is
right next to the track, and the view
is fantastic. ECMS is not for the faint
of heart The track is surrounded by
concrete walls just as formidable as
The crowds gather

those at Darlington, and the close-
quarters action provides the specta-
tor with many spins, close calls and
crashes just to remind you - this is
stock car racing.
ECMS provides a tremendous
variety of races. ECMS starts each
Saturday evening off with the Pure
Stock Division, designed for novice
drivers trying to break into the sport
without a lot of money. These driv-
ers are racing stock cars with stock
engines, the same cars that we drive
each day around town.
Pure Stock is followed by rac-
ing in the Four Cylinder Division, in
which Mustangs, Pintos, Sunbirds
and other smaller-sized cars compete.
The Super Stock cars follow - larger
cars like Monte Carlos and Camaros
with engine and body modifications
allowed.
The Sportsman Division follows,
and includes racers with more expe-
rience and money to put into their
cars. Drivers and crews are allowed
to make greater car modifications,
and compete for over $90,000 in
prize money at ECMS.
Rounding out the racing each
Saturday is the Late Model Stock Di-
vision, seasoned professionals who
are some of the best drivers in the
country. This division has produced
many famous names like'Dale Jarrett,
Darrell Waltrip, Mark Martin and
Dale Earnhardt, among others. Spon-
sors for the Late Model Stock Divi-
sion Pepsi and 7UP have posted more
than $260,000 in prize money at
ECMS this season.
For the stock car racing enthu-
siast, ECMS in Robersonville guar-
antees at least 200 laps of pure rac-
ing excitement each week. For the
novice spectator, ECMS offers a good
look at this fast-paced sport that is
sweeping the nation. On April 22,
Dale Earnhardt. Jr will return tofS
Robersonville for the Late ModeljJg
Stock Car 200. jj
The five-eighths mile tri-oval
track at Robersonville will also host
several more feature races through-
out the season where the Late Model
Stock drivers duel for 200-plus laps,
with $4,000, or more going to the
winners.

their goal - starting the season
with a big-league club. That would
have meant a $5,000 bonus and
the promise of $20,000 in sever-
ance when the major leaguers re-
turned.
But an agreement between
players and owners to start the
season without a new contract
sent many replacements to the
minors and others back to jobs as
truck drivers and teachers and
salesmen.
As major leaguers prepared
Sunday to report to spring train-
ing, which has been reoperfed un-
til ihe delayed season begins April
26, the replacements tossed their
gear in garbage bags and dis-
persed.
(AP)- The man convicted of
stabbing tennis star Monica Seles re-
mained free yesterday on a two-year
suspended prison sentence after a
judge rejected an appeal by prosecu-
tors and the injured athlete's attor-
ney to put the attacker in prison.
Judge Gertraut Goering upheld
the sentence given in October 1993
to Guenter Parche of Germany af-
ter he knifed Seles in the back dur-
ing a tournament, so that his idol,
Steffi Graf, could again become No.
1 in the world.
Seles, 21, has not played pro-
fessional tennis since then.
She and prosecutors had ap-
pealed Parche's conviction on a
charge of grievous bodily injury, ask-
ing for a conviction of attempted
manslaughter, and a prison term in-
stead of a suspended sentence.
The judge said testimony from
Seles would have been needed to
convict Parche on a more serious
charge.
"We assume that Parche's act
is the reason that Seles is not able
to play tennis anymore, but this
can't be said with certainty because
Miss Seles was not willing to testify
in court the judge said.
Seles wrote a letter to the court. J
saying Parche's attack had "?e- ??????
stroyed my life J.w
The judge accepted testimony '?"?? '?
by police officers and psychiatrists '
who said that, aside from his fixa- r
tion on Graf and Seles, Parche was " w"
harmless.
"The evaluations were both
positive Goering said. "Both ex- ?
perts expect that he will never be
moved to do something like that - "?-?"
again.
"We can't rule out that he E -
meant to do more than he did to l,l
Miss Seles, but we also can't prove
this
Goering said Parche's confes-
sion and his written letter of apol-
ogy to Seles counted to his credit.
Prosecutor Rolf Rosenkranz
had acknowledged in his closing ar-
guments, "from the previous life of
the accused, there is nothing to
show that he was aggressive
Rosenkranz said the 40-year-old
Parche should be imprisoned be-
cause he had carefully planned the
attack, because it was carried out
in public, and was in part based on

The East Carolinian
Training camp for free agents
iMMnamwMMunM

BASEBALL from page 17
(AP)- Imagine a starting rota-
tion that includes Orel Hershiser,
Bob Tewksbury and AL ERA cham-
pion Steve Ontiveros, a bullpen that
has John Franco and Dennis
Eckersley and a lineup with Mark
Grace, Larry Walker and Bo Jackson.
Interesting, huh?
They're all available, and could
be all together, starting Wednesday
in a special spring training camp that's
been set up for more than 200 free
agents in Homestead, Fla.
They've been frozen out of sign-
ing new contracts by the strike. Start-
ing today, though, there could be a
free-agent free-fall, even before camps
officially open Wednesday.
"I'll probably be on the cellular
phone as I drive up Florida Marlins
general manager Dave Dombrowski
said.
Jeff Blauser, Benito Santiago and
Vince Coleman could also attend the
unusual camp created just for them
because they don't belong to any
team. The newly built site south of
Miami was supposed to be used by
the Cleveland Indians a few years ago
before it was wrecked by Hurricane
Andrew.
Along with players, the camp
might attract scouts and team offi-
cials.
For starters. Kevin Brown. Frank
Viola and Bobby Witt are among the
other starting pitchers available.
"We need pitching and we're ad-
dressing it said San Francisco gen-
eral manager Bob Quinn, who could
re-sign starter Billy Swift
Some deals seem close. Andy Van
Slyke and the Baltimore Orioles ap-
peared close during the strike, Terry
Pendleton and the Philadelphia
Phillies may work out something and
Hershiser could wind up with Cleve-
land.
"We would like to get some help
at third said Philadelphia general
manager Lee Thomas, who's also con-
sidering Chris Sabo.
Todd Stottlemyre and the Blue
Jays want to find a way to keep him
in Toronto, but it's not sure whetier
Dave Stewart will return there. Alan
Trammell and Eckersley are free, al-
though both are expected to stay with
their former teams.
Andre Dawson, who originally
said 1994 would be his last season,
may end up signing with the Florida
Marlins. The Los Angeles Dodgers
may re-sign Brett Butler and wanted
to look at Viola, who's coming off arm
surgery. The Orioles wanted to see
Franco, while Dave Winfield was ex-
pected to attract some interest
The Marlins, meanwhile, may be
the biggest loser because of baseball's
return to the old work rules.
Under a system implemented late

"The replacement team, I
guess, in a sense has been dis-
carded said Giants shortstop
Jack Smith, who returned to his
job as a building contractor in
Florida.
The Marlins gave the most gen-
erous going-away present. Florida
replacements were stunned when
they found out they were getting a
$25,000 bonus, in addition to the
$5,000 each originally was prom-
ised for signing.
"Mouths dropped and there
was total silence for like 10 sec-
onds catcher Jimmy Kremers said.
"Then someone finally said, Whoo-
hoo
"This is incredible. Some of
these people have never made more
than $8,000 or $9,000 in a t0fcl

Cleveland gave $2,000 bo-
nuses. Milwaukee handed out

class plane tickets home or to the

much easier to head back onto the
track. I think I'm just settling into
the flow of both sports now pretty
steadily. I feel really comfortable
doing what I'm doing
Henry said that he has seen no
resistance from Steve Logan or
track coach Bill Carson about his
"moonlighting and said that each
coach has been supportive of his
decision.
"The football department didn't
even know about me when I came
Henry said. "Coach Carson is the
one who recruited me for track and
the first time we talked, I told him
that I wanted to try out for football.
I started playing football in the
ninth grade and as I played it more,
and learned more about it, I decided
that I wanted to play more football
after high school. I told (Carson)
that and he said Hey, that's fine
with me
Henry said that he plans to con-
tinue as a two-sport athlete through-
out his college career, and said he
sees no reason why he should have
to pick one sport over the other.
"I feel pretty comfortable play-
ing both sports right now and, un-
til one takes precedence over the
other - if that ever happens, I'll
keep right on playing both Henry
said.
Given the difference in the vio-
lent nature of the game of football
from that of track, one would think
that Henry would find training for
football more rigorous, but accord-
ing to Henry the track is a much
tougher "playing field
"I think track is harder because
you prepare as an individual he
said. "Even though you have relay
teams, it is still an individual sport.
Even on relays, people depend on
you to do well on yow leg, where
in football, things are passed down
a line, where if someone misses a
tackle, there is someone down the
line who is supposed to make the
tackle. 1 think that track is definitely
more stressful, the competition is
more in your face than that of the
football team
Henry smiles at a question of
what he likes to do on his non-ath-
letic time. Apparently, there isn't a
lot of that, as his busy academic and
athletic schedule fills much of his
day. Henry said that he has made a
lot of sacrifices for athletics, particu-
larly his playing the saxophone.
"I don't have that much time to
do anything now he said. "1 used
to play in the jazz band in high
school, so now I practice a lot to
try to get my sax skills back. It's
tough, but I know that training for
sports is something that will help
me every day. What I'm doing now
will help me meet the obstacles that
are sure to come up later and play-
ing sports will help me deal with any
situation will come up
Henry, like most athletes of his
caliber, said that he dreams of con-
tinuing a professional sports career,
probably in football because, "that's
where the money is But for Henry,
financial gain is not wanted for him-

Henry said that he would sur-
prise a great many people with his
laid-back attitude in soc.al situa-
tions. He said he likes to spend his
time "sitting in his room chilling
out He said that he thinks most
girls feel because he is an athlete,
he is automatically hyper, but the
only time he truly opens up is when
he is with his girlfriend, Christine.
"When I'm with her, another
part of me opens up and I can act
crazy or like a little kid or some-
thing he said. "When we're not to-
gether I'm pretty much laid back
for replacements' clothes.
They give you a garbage bag
and send you home for your effort
said Reds pitcher Billy Fultz. who
will return to his industrial pack-
aging business in Alabama.
Replacement baseball provided
a month of curiosities, lowlights,
improbable comebacks and the
strangest trade in baseball history.
There was 48-year-old Pedro
Borbon falling over during exer-
cises, then striking out the first
batter he faced. There were first
basemen using outfield gloves, "re-
placement fans" with bags over
their heads and crowds of only a
few dozen despite $1 tickets.
Cincinnati made a five-for-none
trade with Cleveland, prompting
Reds manager Davey Johnson to re-
mark: "Cleveland got the better of
the deal. They didn't get anybody
And there were brief moments
of glory.
Seattle reliever Dave Graybill,
a fireman in Glendale, Ariz helped
rescue badly burned 18-month-old
twins before dawn and pitched two
scoreless innings against the.Chi-
cago Cubs in the afternoon.
Robby Robertson, who had
been driving a bread truck in Ala-
bama, led the Reds in hitting. Rich
Aldrete broke a Milwaukee spring
record with 30 RBIs despite pleas
from his brother, striking Oakland
Athletics outfielder Mike Aldrete,
not to play.
The replacements were mostly
anonymous, and will soon be for-
gotten. Since they played on'y ex-
hibition games, their deeds will not
be recorded in baseball history.
They leave behind a legacy of
bobbled grounders and
baserunning blunders. But they
also impressed fans and managers
with their hustle, their enthusiasm
and their decency - even signing
autographs in the middle of a game.
"It was a great vacation. I en-
joyed it. Now I'm going back
home said Milwaukee second
baseman Billy Bates, who scored
the winning run in Game 2 of the
1990 World Series for Cincinnati.
"Now I get to be a daddy and a
husband again. Tonight I finally get
a chance to see my wife and kids
again Bates said with a smile.
"I'm excited about that. My daugh-
ter, Katelyn, she got her two teeth

was proud of my bottom lip's abil-
ity to take a whopping three sec-
onds before it hit the floor.
I've never stammered so much
in my life.
Talking to the dancers was in-
deed an educational experience,
though, one that every guy who has
drooled over the squad should un-
dertake. They would learn that be-
hind the tiny outfits and eye-catch-
ing dance steps are very intelligent
young ladies, who are no different
from any other student at ECU.
"A lot of people think that be-
cause we dance, that we're stupid
or something said Jenni Prue, a
member of the squad. "They seem
to take what we do on the floor to
mean something entirely different
than who we really are. There are a
lot of misconceptions about us,
which I don't think is really fair,
but it's just something that comes
with the territory
In order for the dancers to pull
off the extremely synchronized
movements required in their rou-
tines, they have to practice each
part of the routine over and over
until the movement is perfected.
Overseeing their progress is chore-
ographer Alto Gary, a veteran of
the squad and a graduate assistant
in charge of the group.
"Basically I've choreographed
the squad since I was a sopho-
more she said. "And as long as I've
been dancing, I know how strenu-
ous it is for them
"One thing about Alto that
helps is that she's been there said
Terri Harris, a senior on the squad.
"She knows what it's all about and

that helps her design the routines
and helps us get better
In fact, Gary even went so far
as to fill in for Prue at a game this
season when a knee injury rendered
her incapable of performing. Ac-
cording to the girls on the squad,
the dancing is much more physical
than the general public might
think.
"Some people might think that
we don't work hard said dancer
Cindy Miller. "Looks can definitely
be deceiving because just because
this looks easy doesn't mean it is
"We fall on our fannies and get
hurt just like any other athlete
adds Tamara Starnes. "Performing
is a lot more demanding than
people think
The dancers have a strenuous
schedule which has them training
in the gym as early as 5:30 some
mornings and, depending on if they
perform that night, can have them
practicing into the early morning
hours.
Despite the demand of the rou-
tines, the girls are basically in
agreement about the one thing that
keeps them on the squad: the thrill
of the performance.
"It's just awesome being out
there Miller said. "While you're
doing it, you don't feel tired and it
just means the world to hear the
crowd
The squad will have a chance
to showcase their talents to the na-
tion when they travel, along with
the ECU cheerleaders, to the na-
tional championship of their sports
held this year at Walt Disney World
in Orlando, Fla. this weekend. The
dance squad's video, submitted for
prejudging, had them placing
eighth in the preliminary round.
The team's success, and work
ethic, are not lost on the ECU ath-
letic department, according to As-
sistant Athletic Director Lee Work-
man. Workman said that the univer-
sity is proud to be sending the squad
to compete and feels that both
groups will be excellent representa-
tives of what ECU has to offer.
"This competition is another
opportunity for ECU to get a good
deal of national exposure Work-
man said. "It's a chance for the men
and women of these programs to
compete in their respective activi-
ties and will do a great deal to show-
case their talents.
"These two student groups,
while mainly non-competitive, work
hard in the weight room and often
practice just as hard as our other
sports programs. We've always tried
to support these groups and will
continue to do so when we have the
opportunity
Naturally the girls on the squad
are excited about this opportunity
and are primed and ready to give
their best performance against other
quality squads from around the na-
tion. The ending of the dancer's
"season" brings sentimentalism
from some on the squad, particu-
larly seniors Harris and Michelle
Dyer.
"Leaving is going to be tough
Harris said, emotionally. "I know
this squad is a family to me and it's
going to be hard to say goodbye to
that
The interview at an end, the
girls were nice enough to indulge
me in a couple of goofy pictures that
I can show my grandkids and tell
lies to them about. As their rehearsal
began I was ever so nicely kicked
out with an embarrassed smile and
the knowledge that nothing I ever
do in the field of journalism will ever
be the same.

last year by owners ? and later found
to be illegal - a special class of re-
stricted free agents was created.
Under that plan, 38 additional
players, including Marquis Grissom,
Ken Hill, Andy Benes and Jack
McDowell, would have been allowed to
become free, too. The group, all with
between four and six years' experience,
could have signed with new clubs,
though their old teams would've been
allowed to match any offers.
The Marlins had worked out ten-
tative agreements with two Montreal
Expos stars for five-year contracts -
Grissom for $27.5 million and Hill at
$25 million. The Colorado Rockies
had a tentative pact with Minnesota
pitcher Scott Erickson for three years
at $6 million, and Expos relief ace
John Wetteland may be gone to Bos-
ton.
Instead, the Marlins will be stuck
looking elsewhere to fill their biggest
needs of a starting pitcher and a third
baseman.
"We'll be active in trying to sign
or trade for those roles Dombrowski

Parche had spoken of his dis-
like of Serbs. Seles, an ethnic Hun-
garian, was bom in the Serbian area
of Yugoslavia. She is now an Ameri-
can citizen.
On April 30. 1993, Parche
stabbed Seles, then 19, in the back
while she was sitting on a bench dur-
ing a break in her match at a tour-
nament at Hamburg's Rothenbaum
stadium.
Seles' psychologist, Jerry
Russel May, of Reno, Nev testified
that she was suffering post-trau-
matic stress disorder. She has
trouble doing normal, public daily
tasks, such as going to the grocery
store, May testified.
Homicide detective Rolf Bauer
testified at the appeal hearing that
Parche had given a credible expla-
nation that he didn't want to maim
Seles for life, only put her out of
action until Graf could regain the
top spot in women's tennis.
"It was obvious to us all that
the man belonged with a doctor and
not in jail the detective said.

And they will go places, espe-

bring in a variety of talented fresh-

bases loaded and two outs in the
bottom of the ninth inning. GMU's
Steve Skaggs came in for relief of
freshman Shawn Camp, who
struggled against the Pirates early
on in the ninth inning.
Overton was disappointed to
say the least on stranding three base
runners to end the ballgame.
"The infield was drawn in he
said. "In that situation, one run is a
must; two is a possibility. Two wins
the game, one obviousty ties it at
home, which is what a team is play-
ing for
The strikeout to Yerys is even
more damaging in that the senior
from Charlotte has had problems re-
cently hitting anything but a
straight fastball. Yerys, a Second
Team All-CAA selection last year, is
currently batting .241, down from
.364 at the end of last season.
"He's struggling with the bat
Overton said. "That's no secret.
We're trying to find answers, and
hopefully he'll break out of it, he
just hasn't done so at this point
The Patriots are now 13-12
overall after taking the series here
in Greenville.
"I think basically what you saw
in this series were two teams that
were pretty evenly matched GMU
head coach Bill Brown said after the
series.
"It turned out being our week-
end, winning two out of three, but
it could have easily gone either way.
The first game Nass threw very well,
but other than that it was an evenly
matched series all the way through

Mason intentionally walked Pirate
