May 24,1995 Vol 69, No. 93 The East Carolinian Circulation 12,000 East Carolina University Greenville, N C 8 pases Fire blamed for Ringgold evacuation Around the State (API - Three people were killed and four others were injured last Wednesday when fired em- ployee began shooting at former co- workers at a machine tools distri- bution center in Asheville. James Floyd Davis. 47. was ar- rested and charged with three counts of murder after the shoot- ing at the Union Butterfield Divi- sion plant in south Asheville. (AP) - Larry Demeryaccused in the slaying of Michael Jordan's father, has been transferred from the Robeson County Jail in Durham, to a state prison next door for safety reasons, State Depart- ment of Correction officials said Monday. Around the Country (AP) - The remains of the fed- eral building in Oklahoma City, a stark reminder of terror, tumbled to the ground today in an orches- trated series of muffled booms as friends and relatives of bombing victims looked on. In Michigan, the brother of one of the suspects was released from custody. The nine-story shell collapsed in a cloud of grayish-brown dust when the dynamite charges care- fully placed by demolition experts went off. It was a contrast to the thick black smoke that boiled up April 19 when a 4,800-pound bomb tore the face of the building away. (AP) ? People may lose some ability to remember as they age because they've shifted much of the job to a less efficient part of the brain, a study from Miami Beach, Florida suggests. Using brain scans to watch the mind in action, researchers found that such people may move much of the work away from areas behind the forehead and beneath the left temple, and put more of a burden on an area in the back of the brain. Around the World (AP) - A professor who wrote for a government-run newspaper has been shot and killed in west- ern Algeria, security officials said Tuesday. There was no claim of respon- sibility for the slaying Monday night in Oran, but suspicion fell on Mus- lim fundamentalist militants who have targeted reporters, intellectu- als and officials in a 3-year-old in- surgency. Bakhti Benaouda, 34, who taught at the Oran University Arab Language Institute, was shot at point-blank range by two armed men, witnesses said. Benaouda, the 46th journalist killed since the mili- tants launched their fight to bring down the army-backed government, wrote for the El-Djoumhouria news- paper. (AP) - Police arrested an American man and two Thais in Bangkok yesterday wanted by U.S. authorities for smuggling young women to New York City to serve as captive prostitutes, an official said. Unattended stove the culprit in Monday's fire Wendy Rountree Assistant News Editor On Monday at 12:27 p.m the Greenville Police and Fire Depart- ments and ECU's Police Depart- ment responded to an alarm at Ringgold Towers, while residents evacuated the building. Hollie Simonowich, manager of Ringgold Towers said that a resident came downstairs from the fifth floor to tell her she smelled something burning and saw smoke. Simonowich then went upstairs and checked Room 500. "There was smoke and the alarm was going off in the room Simonowich said. As she went downstairs in the elevator, Simonowich said another resident who happened to have a cel- lular phone called for assistance. Once on the main floor, Simonowich pulled the fire lever. She said help arrive quickly. "It (help) took about three min- utes Simonowich said. The firemen found that the resi- dent had left something unattended after cooking on the stove. "They put food on to cook and left the building Simonowich said. "They forgot to turn it off There was little damage to the room or the hallway. "There was no water damage, no fire damage - the smoke dam- age is moderate to the room said Tony Smart, battalion chief of shift one for the Greenville Fire Depart- ment. During the incident, ECU's Po- lice Department and Greenville po- lice officers blocked the campus' Cotanche Street entrance from traf- fic for a period of time. "Emergency vehicles were there said Teresa Crocker, direc- torchief of the ECU police depart- ment. "They blocked off the en- trance for safety reasons Crocker said this was necessary because if the fire department had needed to pull fire hoses across the street, cars could not be allowed to run over them. Simonowich said this type of occurance is not uncommon. "They do not cook very well Simonowich said. "It happens quite often. Usually, though, we find out about it before it gets this far Simonowich said all the dam- ages are insured by Ringgold Tow- ers. The contents in the apartment are insured by the ownerrenter, or the person's parents if they are re- quired to sign the lease.

Residents were required to evacuate the building, no injuries occured. Patients find help in Jenkins Cancer Center Marguerite Benjamin Start Writer Land grant allows expansion of intramural sports Laura Jackman Staff Writer East Carolina is expanding again, with a new, state-of-the-art intramu- ral sports complex. Last December, a six-acre tract of land valued at $706,000 was donated by the Blount family of Greenville. Ear- lier this year, ECU purchased an ad- ditional six acres for $500,000 to make a 12-acre total. The facility will be named the William Gray and Barbara K. Blount Intramural Complex after the donating family. The sports complex will contain 10 footballsoccer fields, five softball diamonds and space for lacrosse and rugby matches. "This generous gift and sale will provide East Carolina students a lo- cation for top-of-the-line intramural fa- cilities said Jim Lanier, vice chancel- lor for institutional advancement. "The complex will be one of the fin- est facilities of its kind and will ben- efit students for generations to come Construction is slated to begin in November and expected to be com- pleted by late 1996. The site of the facility is next to the Belk Allied Health Building, where the climbing tower is located. The fields will span through the existing trees that cur- rently serve as a border for the uni- versity. "The real advantage to this plan is that all the intramural games will be played in one space. The area will have its own identity Lanier said. The bulk of ECU's present intra- mural fields are located near Dowdy- Ficklen Stadium. The move to the Al- lied Health site will create a large cen- tral area for other campus' needs. In addition, the entire area will be lighted to allow the fields to be used at night. "The increasing demands for parking and facility construction have resulted in a significant decrease in recreational playing fields over the past five years said Nance Mize, di- rector of recreation services. "And we have estimated that between 300 and 500 students use the fields every week. The ever-increasing demands and growth in intramural sports, club sports and informal recreation require additional playing fields and deserve quality playing surfaces See GRANT page 2 The American College of Sur geons Commission on cancer has ap- proved only one- fifth of the nation's cancer programs. The Leo Jenkins Cancer Center, a di- vision of University Medical Center of Eastern Carolina- Pitt County, was a recent recipient of this approval. The award certificate which signifies approval for three years, was also given to the Cancer Center in 1992. The criteria for receiving this award are many, and the "Receiving this approval again demonstrates to the community and to the region that total cancer care is available right here" ? Phyllis DeAntonio, program manager standards of the organizations receiv- ing this approval are very high. "Receiving this approval again demonstrates to the community and to the region that total cancer care is available right here said Phyllis DeAntonio, pro- gram manager for the Cancer Center.

The books, written by Richard Hakluyt, were pub- lished close to 400 years ago. "Among aca- demic libraries, the million volume mark is usually a milestone that signi- fies that a collection has accumulated enough books, jour- nals and other ma- terials so that the capability for doing research, extended study and so forth is much better said Dr. Kenneth Marks, director of Joyner Library. "Typically, those uni- versities that specialize in research, that are recognized as being among the best academic institutions from a quality stand point are the ones that have library collections that number more that a million volumes Marks said that only a small num- ber of universities in the country have reached that mark. "There are somewhere be- tween 150 and 160 academic li- braries that have a million volumes or more Marks said. "It's not a large number of librar- ies and it suppos- edly puts you in good company Only three other universities' libraries in the There are somewhere between 150 and 160 academic libraries that have a million volumes ? or more ? Kenneth Marks, director of Joyner Library 'N5C0hapel 7 7 Hill, N.C. State and Duke, are among that number. "Very few people on this campus realize the size and scope of Joyner Library said Don Lennon, coordina- tor of special collections for Joyner Library. Marks said that when a library reaches the level that Joyner now has, it can more effectively enhance the graduate programs on campus. "It would not cause a graduate program to be put in place but it cer- tainly would be a benefit to existing programs Marks said. Putting to- gether the library collection to sup- port a graduate program is something that is not done quickly and is not done overnight. "Nevertheless. I don't think any- body would take issue with the state- ment that would say, it's impossible to have a good graduate program with- out a good library and it's perhaps fair to say that you can't have a good library without good graduate pro- grams. They go hand in glove he said. Lennon said that the library cel- ebrated on April 28 in Mendenhall with a dedication and a symposium. The topics ranged from a talk on the virtual library to a talk on Hakluyt's books. See MILLION page 2 port "Our cancer center is committed to the highest quality care and lifetime follow-up care for patients said DeAntonio. The approvals program recognizes these are important parts of a successful cancer program and promotes consultation among patients, their families and their physicians. The Commission on Cancer dic- tates that approved programs have a tumor registry. A tumor registry is ef- fective in that the process involves the collection of information on all patients who are diagnosed or treated for can- cer at the institution. This allows the institution to maintain contact with patients after discharge which ensures continued health care and rehabilita- tion assistance. "Information collected through the registry allows us to participate in national studies designed to improve patient care and treatment said DeAntonio. The American Cancer So- ciety estimates that more than 80 per- cent of newly diagnosed cancer pa- tients (an estimated 1.252,000 cases this year alone) will be treated in the relatively few programs approved by the Commission on Cancer. According to DeAntonio, receiving the three-year certificate of approval will help the center fulfill its mission to provide the best cancer care in east- ern North Carolina. "This will also contribute to the future of cancer care by allowing us to participate in research De Antonio said. He expressed the importance of the team approach to ensure better pa- tient care. The Leo Jenkins Cancer Center is currently offering a program to help adults diagnosed with cancer, their families and friends cope with the chal- lenges of cancer. The program, created by the American Cancer Society and fittingly called "I Can Cope offers participants practical information, encouragement and insight to help with the day-to-day issues of living with cancer.

The awards were in the form of grant and schol- arship money. Michele Roberts, a junior at ECU, was honored by the Liquitex Excellence in Art Student Grant pro- gram with a $500 award for art ma- terials and supplies. Rebecca Putze also received the award. Roberts and Putze are two of more than 200 stu- dents nation-wide to receive a cash or materials grant this year. This award is designated primarily for students who concentrate in paint- ing. ECU art majors were encour- lected from 31 students competing for the scholarship. "I was amazed that I had won with all of the competition Varney said. "I felt confident about the di- versity of my work because of the progress made in my summer expe- riences Varney has spent his summers studying art at the North Carolina School of the Arts, Governor's School and Rhode Island School of the Arts.

Traffic radio hits waves Andi Powell Phillips Staff Writer ECU Parking and Traffic Services is trying to make parking on campus a little bit easier through their new "information station a radio broad- cast which can be heard on AM 530. "The service provides informa- tion on parking for visitors, students and faculty about directions, where to park, the rapid shuttle service from Minges, and general information such as the location of Parking and Traffic Services so that visitors can come pick-up parking permits said Leslie Craigle, marketing director for busi- ness services. "If you are familiar with the radio information stations as you enter Disney World, it is similar to those, but on a smaller scale The broadcast recordings are made by telephone by Patricia Gertz, director of parking and traffic services and they can be updated if any emer- gencies arise, or during special events such as football games or concerts, Craigle said. "If the shuttle service is not op- erating for some reason, say a school holiday or during a break, or traffic needed to be directed for special events parking, it would be broadcast" she said. ECU Parking and Services bought the radio service, the funds coming from parking fines and fees, Gertz said. "The system was purchased for about $15,000, including installation and training Gertz said. "Currently there is a minimal telephone line charge per month, but that will be eliminated when the telephone num- ber becomes a campus number Craigle said the radio signal can currently only be picked-up very near campus and it can be a little fuzzv. "We're planning to enhance the sound quality in the near future she said. And there are other improve- ments the department hopes to make as well. "Eventually, we'd like the broad- cast to contain more information News UUriters about the university and for people in outlying areas to be able to hear it Craigle said.

Since program groups are closed af- ter the first weekly session, the same group of people attend each week for the duration of the program. This lim- ited group size ensures a feeling of personal support and that no partici- pant misses any stage of the program.

According to Walston, week one of the series is dedicated to learning about cancer, the topic of week two is understanding treatment, and dur- ing week three, participants leam how to manage the effects of illness and treatment. The next five weeks respectively focus on keeping well in mind and body, common concerns, feelings, ex- ploring self-esteem, mobilizing re sources and support and celebrating life.

MILLION from page 1 The three volume set, The Prin- cipal Navigations, Voiages, Traffiques. and Discoveries of the English Nation were a gift from The Friends of the Library. The first book contains the two volumes published in 1598, while the second book con- tains the third volume published in 1600. Hakluyt, was the first to write and to educate his fellow Englishmen about the explorations and accom- plishments of English explorers. Lennon said Hakluyt, a friend of Sir Walter Raleigh's, included in the book a list of the names of the origi- nal Roanoke Island settlers, who went down in history as "The Lost Colony "The Sir Walter Raleigh voyages to Roanoke Island, which of course has considerable impact on North Carolina's history - all we know about VjlvAJN J. from page 1 An access road will be built con- necting the existing Allied Health Building parking lot to the new com- plex, and additional parking will be provided along this road. Once the complex is completed, the university plans to convert the fields around the stadium into athletic parking. The construction will be in two phases. The first phase includes the construction of the access road, play- ing fields and a central building which will contain water fountains, bath- rooms, first aid and storage space. Phase two would later convert an ad- ditional small tract of land into more playing fields. "One of the most important ele- ments of this facility is it gives another permanent green space on campus and it is important that we keep these kinds of areas open and accessible to students Lanier said. A natural buffer of trees will sur- round the completed site providing an- other aesthetic value to the facility. "Well over half of the student body is involved in intramurals at any given year, so this is a very signifi- cant gift from the Blount family Lanier said. them comes from Hakluyt's Principle Navigations Lennon said. Marks said the Hakluyt books are probably the most notable addition that the library has received. "There are probably none in the library's history that stand out the way the millionth volume has Marks said. Marks said the books will boost the university's maritime, coastal and marine programs. "Typically, when a university has a library past the millionth volume mark, they seek out a work that rep- resents something that is unique about the university or that is a strength of the academic programs Marks said. "As we looked at the divi- sion of academic affairs and some of the program proposals that are going forward for additional academic pro- grams, it seemed clear that if we could find a volume that was a oriented to- wards maritime history, coastal and marine activities that it would repre- sent a long held focus for the univer- sity. "It also would represent an ac- knowledgment that the university is interested in Ph.D. programs in mari- time history, coastal and marine stud- ies. A publication like Hakluyt pro- vides original source material for re- searchers and students who previously would have to travel to other locations to find the information The books will be on display in the manuscript collection area in Joyner Library until the end of the month. waiK-ins Hnyiime 2888 E. 18ttl St. Eastgate Shopping Center Across from Highway Patrol Behind Car-Quest Mon-FH. 9-6 Walk ins Anytime 752-5318 men's hair styling shoppe $6.00 Say PIRATES & Get Haircut HairCllt or " Everytime Join Us For National Trail Day Saturday June 3 LET'S GO TO Margarita Party Tiies, May 30 and You May Win Tickets to See Jimmy Buffet Lots of Prizes, Lots of Fun, Chico's Is The Only One 93 Bud $1.50 Coronas & Corona Lites $393 Cheeseburger In Paradise Platter $2.93 Lime Margaritas Tlie Best IVIix Stt Cotanche St Downtown, Greenville 757-1666 Wednesday, May 24, 1995 The East Carolinian 4 Our View Since ECU officials thinks it is okay for on campus residents to hike all the way to Todd to eat, are they planning to foot the bill for the those who suffer heat exhaustation? We are the summer school elite. We are few in number, but we are HERE. Instead of lying on a beach somewhere or doing an internship for needed job experience, we have opted (volun- tarily or involuntarily) to spend at least part of our summer marathoning through classes every day. So, we should at least not have to walk a mile and a half to Todd Dining Hall to get a decent meal. The policy, which started last summer, requires that stu- dents living in residence halls during the summer purchase meal plans, even if they use their declining balance during the regular school year. These residence halls (with air condition- ing, thank God) are currently Cotton, Fleming and Jarvis and are located on Central campus much closer to Mendenhall caf- eteria than Todd on College Hill. The upstairs of Mendenhall is open and even Hendrix Theater is planning to show a few movies this summer. So, why not open the cafeteria. Yes, there are less students on campus now than in the fall or spring semesters and a lot of students live off campus. But, we are still ECU students whether it is May or January, and we should have some breaks. If we are forced to buy a meal plan in order to live on campus, we should have a conve- nient place to use it. Okay, the Wright Place and the Croatan are open, but they basically serve fast food. Sometimes people want a real meat and potato kind of meal, you know. The kind that includes the four basic food groups, yeah, including vegetables. As the summer progresses, (we know how hot it gets in Greenville) students who find themselves walking to Todd in the sweltering heat might not make it back to Central campus because of heat stroke. And, stubborn students, who refuse to give in and walk and who are fortunate enough to have cars, face wasting gas which their last $4 paid for and running up useless mileage on their speedometers. Granted, when incoming freshmen and their parents come to stay on College Hill during orientation, the university, un- derstandably, wants to show them the best and newest (Todd) that it has to offer, but it is also important that the university does not forget the students who are already here - way down the Hill on Central campus. The East Carolinian ? Reality basically bites I weni to see While You Were Sleeping with some friends last week and I really enjoyed it. My friends, however, complained that it was too unrealistic. I hear that alot, that this movie is too farfetched, or that televi- sion sitcom doesn't reflect real life and I think GOOD! I get enough reality from the 6 o'clock news when I can bear too watch it. I don't want to spend my leisure time watching rec- reations of the horrible things nature and man inflict on themselves and on one another. I think that's why televi- sion shows like Seinfeld and Friends are so popular. They take you com- pletely away from reality for half an hour. Anything that can do that de- serves an award and yet many people say sitcom television is trash and "fluff" movies are disregarded as un- important Some people say that those kinds of entertainment don't teach you anything, but I have to disagree. So-called "light" entertainment teaches you how to laugh and be a little silly and it reminds you that not all people are out there plotting to maim and kill their fellow human be- Andi Powell Phillips Opinion Columnist There's enough violence and despair in real life. Who wants to see it in the movies? ings. When I see a movie that is fun and upbeat and hopeful, not only do I enjoy the movie itself, but it serves as proof to me that there is at least one other person cut there who still daydreams and imagines the way things could be. I guess what kind of entertain- ment you like depends on how you view the world. Me, I see the world as a huge amount ofpotential for happiness, the majority of which is being wasted. I like to see movies and television that show the way things might be if only (fill-in your solution for world peace and harmony here.) But, obviously, from the number of reality-based cop shows, news magazines, real-life disas- ter shows, etc. there are people who like their entertainment a little grim- mer. I can only guess at why this is so. Maybe they get a sense of well-being from watching other people suffer and thinking it could never happen to them. And, of course, there are those who like to take entertainment to the next level and watch horror movies, the grosser the better. I won't even specu- late about the motivations of these people, 1 think we can all use our imagi- nations here. Anyway, if I get anything impor- tant across in this article I want it to be this: Too much reality is like too much of anything, it can kill you (or at least make you wish you were dead.) While we need to know what is going on in the world around us, it is good to escape from it once in a while and just laugh until you snort soda through your nose! m Letters to the Editor To the Editor: After reading "What's the pur- pose of 1065?" by Maureen Rich, I felt it necessary for an educated re- sponse. As an educator it is my re- sponsibility to defend mathematics and our education system. I believe the author's logic to be completely sound, provided the article was written by a device that does not use semiconductor tech- nology (i.e. No word processor, computer, or any electronic device), in a room lit by candle light or the sun. The room should be of wood construction with no engineered timbers, on a cracked concrete slab or dirt foundation. The room should be located where there is sic no telephones, televisions, AC electricity, or carpet. All of these condition should also apply to the publication in which it is printed. These criteria are required be- cause, despite popular belief, Sci- entists, engineers, and every day Joes who invent are not, in general, bred to do these things. That is, they are formed by some type of education. I use to believe math was worthless until one day I learned that .999 1 (An easy proof with knowledge of MATH 1065). The absurdity of this in- trigued me so much that 1 wanted to learn math! I am now a physics graduate. My point is, that the gen- eral college requirements are (1) for exposing students to all areas of study so that they may make an educated decision about what kind of career to choose, and (2) for giv- ing students the fundamental tools to carry out their decision.

When terrorists struck in Okla- homa recently. I thought that Presi- dent Clinton handled the situation perfectly. His opening statements per- fectly expressed the moral outrage we all felt at such a heinous act. This was surely the president's finest moment Unfortunately, his follow-up state- ments regarding political speech in our country were not as well handled. Not, as many conservatives have claimed, because he cast his net too broadly, including in it mainstream commentators like Rush Limbaugh. Instead, he should have pointed out the serious problem that plagues American political discourse. If the president really wanted to help, he would have fearlessly pointed out the many voices in all the parties who make reckless and foolish state- ments about their political opponents. All too often, rather than engage in a serious debate of the issues, politi- cians and pundits of all ideologies are too willing to settle for attacking the character and motives of those with whom they disagree. Take, as merely two of the most recent and obvious examples, the president's proposed health care plan and the Republican's proposed block grant approach to school lunches. Re- publicans, with very few exceptions, questioned the first couple's charac- ter and attacked the president and first lady for "trying to socialize" the story (an exac parallel to item 1) a waste, nor do I believe that you think learning to write (an exact parallel to item 2) is a waste. Finally, I know that Maureen Rich will take the time to read this response because as a journalist she cannot afford to be so closed minded that statements like "Don't bother ending in your responses, because nothing anyone says can convince me that Math 1065 serves a purpose are sincere! Brian Hall Opinion Columnist The disintegration of our society is most evident in the animosity shown between political parties economy, rather than debate the plan upon its merits. When these same Republicans earlier this year proposed sending the school lunch program to the states, the democrats accused them of not caring if America's children starved and of wanting to balance the budget "on the backs of America's children Both of these ideas merited a fuller and more intelligent debate than they received. The president and Mrs. Clinton are undoubtedly right that something needs to be done to con- trol health care costs. Perhaps their plan was not the best way to do so, but 30-second commercials and five- second sound bites on the news were not the way to prove that it was not Likewise, the Republicans are surely right in pointing out that the federal government has grown too large to effectively administer many programs. Perhaps the school lunch program should nut be sent to the states. The way to show this, however, was not by sending the president to eat tacos at a school cafeteria, but by proving to Congress and the Ameri- can people that such a move would be a bad idea. The worst form of such political language is found in fund raising let- ters, such as the now infamous NRA "jackbooted thugs" letter, which the president has rightly condemned. Another example, which he has not condemned, is a Democratic National Committee letter which described Newt Gingrich as the "most danger- ous" man in our nation's history. We seem to have lost the idea of the loyal opposition upon which multiparty democracy is based. This is not to say that there has ever been a golden era in our history, free from demagoguery. However, we at least used to be able to recognize it as such. This points out the true prob- lem, which is not that politicians are acting this way, but that it is work- ing. Too many of us are willing to believe the worst ahout our political opponents. Until we insist upon an end to this demonization of our ad- versaries, the current trend will con- tinue. Hey Aldridge, shut up! Recently 1 called an out-of-state friend who served in the Army with me. He said he had read about Greenville recently in his local news- paper. He laughed and joked that Greenville must be ,i pretty backwards place to elect a state representative who would say women who are raped cannot get pregnant. As amazing as it sounds, Rep. Henry Aldridge said in a House com- mittee debate and again on the House floor that women who are raped can- not get pregnant. He said, "Their juices don't flow it's not natural He also commented that women who are sexually assaulted must be promis- cuous. Within minutes after his in- flammatory speech, his comments were being carried across the coun- try by the Associated Press wire ser- vice. The New York Times. Washing- ton Post and Miami Herald along with ? newspapers and radio stations across the US carried his remarks. Henry Aldridge put Greenville on the map. CBS radio news and National Public Radio carried his comments across the nation. One could almost hear the sound of Aldridge bumper stickers being peeled off cars throughout Pitt County. The amazing point is not that Aldridge made these comments, but how he kept the voters from finding out about his extremist views until after the election. He spent $64,000 to ride the Republican wave into Ra- leigh by distracting the people with a well orchestrated mass media cam- paign. This is more than anyone has ever spent to capture a state house seat from Pitt County. Thomas Blue Opinion Columnist Thanks to Henry Aldridge1 s diarrhea of the mouth, Greenville is now on the map Aldridge used the bait and switch to get a state house seat. First, he ran a series of ads that showed his grand- children jumping around on an old home movie. He told us he wanted to change the General Assembly, because he was concerned about their future. However, he didn't tell us how he was going to change Raleigh. Well, I guess we know now. The second part of his campaign was to destroy the reputation of the incumbent representative. Aldridge sent out thousands of mail pieces that hit mailboxes across the county two days before the election. The most inflammatory one alleged his oppo- nent coddled child molesters, because he voted for the Structured Sentenc- ing Act Henry Aldridge was even more loose with the truth than most politi- cians are. The Greensboro News and Record called this mailing a dishon- est disgrace to campaigning for pub- lic office. It's almost secondary that every member of .Aldridge's own party voted for the bill during its final read- ing in the state ! ouse. Doesn't the Iruth matter in politics anymore? Henry Aldridge deceived the public with a big money campaign. He told us his opponent was against the Intruder Bill throughout the race. Yet, in reality Rep. McLawhorn introduced and sponsored the very bill he was accused of having fought against. On the other hand, Henry told us he was going to cut govern- ment. He failed to mention that he was going to vote to cut 46 faculty positions at ECU. When are politi- cians going to start being honest with us? It's sad that most politicians want to distract us from their records. While Henry was reciting that he was against taxes, he must have wondered how he was going to reconcile that with his remarkable record of hav- ing supported tax increases. After all, he is the same Henry Aldridge who voted for poll taxes, property tax in- creases and even an increase in the fees to bury people in Greenville's city cemetery. His poll tax charged people money to vote. Thank God the Supreme Court decided to protect us from politicians who want us to have to pay to exercise our right to vote. It's too bad they can't protect us from politicians who try to deceive us to get elected to public office. Our state representative exemplifies what is wrong with America's political sys- tem. Politicians in both political par- ties need to be honest with the pub- lic about where the stand and what thfir record is. One can only hope more of them get caught like Henry Aldridge did.

Miles Layton Staff Writer In the beginning there was the Student Union. Then came J. Marshall, assistant director of student activities. Marshall has a large part in bringing anything from the Spin Doctors to Forrest Gump to East Carolina. As adviser to the Film, Lecture, Special Events and Popular Entertainment Committees of the Student Union, his influence is widespread. But what in- fluences Marshall? As an undergraduate at the Uni- versity of North Dakota, Marshall was dragged reluctantly to see guitarist Leo Kottke play before a packed house. Well known in musician circles, Kottke had not broken into the main- stream music Marshall listened to. "That was one of the best con- certs 1 had ever heard Marshall said. "Ever since then I was constantly on the search for good music Marshall was a very active under- graduate. He was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity, a senator in student government, and active in the univer- sity union. He left with a degree in public administration and went to graduate school at Northern Arizona University where he received a mas- ters in education and counseling. Marshall worked extensively in resi- dence life, where he was unhappy. "I didn't like the discipline end of residence life which is a big part of what you do While doing an internship in the student activities office. Marshall de- cided this was the direction he was headed. After graduation he became the assistant dean of student activi- ties at Southern Arkansas which has approximately 2,300 students. Attracted to Greenville and hop- ing to serve at a much larger univer- sity, Marshall moved to East Carolina in 1990 where he has served as assis- tant director of student activities. He feels the student activities office is as important as academics. "1 think what we do here is as important as what they do in the class- room because we provide hands-on opportunities for students in leader- ship, marketing and social skills which are valuable in real life Marshall said that students in the Student Union go out and have to put together a program that is entertain- ing and sometimes educational to the student body. That's no easy feat, but nothing can bea seeing everybody having a good time like at Barefoot on the Ma ? "It's like an athlete coming off the court with a win when I see the crowd smiling Marshall said. Despite all the hard work the Student Union does during the year, Marshall feels they do not get much recognition because few mainstream bands appear. Most students are re- luctant to experiment with music like he was, but he says today's undiscov- ered musicians are tomorrow's head- liners. He recalled the Spin Doctors played to a whopping crowd of 87 a year before their chart-topping album. The Connells and UB40 have also made appearances before going main- stream. "Those are the kind of things, if you take a risk, you may see before they take off Marshall said. Part of the reason large acts do not appear is lack of a Dean-Dome- or Walnut-Creek-sized venue. Marshall has worked diligently and has suc- ceeded in getting Williams Arena open for a Homecoming concert. He thinks that if a big band plays, more people will come out for the quality, smaller shows. "If we did a few major concerts, it would improve our credibilty before they see what we are doing on a See MARSHALL page 5 And the winner is Photo Courtesy of ECU News Bureau Djean Jawrunner, an ECU graduate student in sculpture.won an international mold-making competition.

Set sail on a Crimson Tide Hackman and Washington shine in Naval thriller Ike Shibley Staff Writer At the beginning of last sum- mer, Speed proved to be the action film to beat in the summer compe- tition. This summer an early action entry, Crimson Tide, seems des- tined to follow in the tracks oiSpeed. Crimson Tide takes place aboard the nuclear-powered subma- rine, USS Alabama. The Alabama, in Navy slang, is classified as a boomer: a large sub that carries nuclear warheads. A boomer's mis- sion is to provide a deterrent to nuclear war. The sub remains sub- merged for several months at a time without anyone knowing its loca- tion. The theory behind this se- crecy is that any aggression by a foreign country can be met with swift retaliation before any enemy subs can attack the boomer. The end of the Cold War seemed to mark the end of es- pionage thrillers as well as contempo- rary military films. Yet the human mind can be cre- ative when pressed and thus Crimson Tide resonates with an urgency cap- tured from today's headlines. The film- makers have wisely capitalized on the precarious world situation brought about not by gov- ernments but by fa- natical coalitions of dissatisfied citi- zens. Crimson Tide opens with a CNN news correspondent relating the events leading to a tense situa- tion in Russia (The same reporter appears at the end of the film also, providing a framing device for the movie). A small, hostile group of Rus- sians seizes a nuclear base and threatens to launch its warheads against the United States. From this overview of the world situ- ation, Crim- son Tide switches to a world within a world, the in- sides of a sub- marine. Ex- cept for brief scenes on land at the beginning and end of the film.

Home Grown music sprouts downtown Photo courtesy Leeway Productions Here we see local rock favorites Purple Schoolbus relaxing around their pavement-eating namesake, which they will be riding into the Homegrown Music Festival, where they will perform in all their magenta glory. Brandon Waddell Assistant Lifestyle Editor wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm For the first time since Barefoot on the Mall, out-of-towners will decend upon Greenville to be given attendance credit for music appre- ciation. No, the music building has not been engulfed in towering in- ferno; but the downtown area will be on fire on June 9 and 10 for the Home Grown Music Festival. The festival is the first of its kind in Greenville; 11 bands with different musical styles will play simulta- neously at both The Attic and Peasant's Cafe. The bands playing in the festi- val are all members of the Home Grown Music Network, an associa- tion of independent bands working concurrently to promote themselves to success on a nationwide level. All acts being featured in the festival are ones who have current CD releases available and are seasoned live per- formers. Bigger-name acts include Purple Schoolbus, Knocked Down Smilin Omnimous Seapods, Flyin' Mice, Melanie Sparks Band and Keller Williams. The Home Grown Music Festi- val is the brainstorm of Lee Crumpton, founder of LeeWay Pro- ductions and Paul Edwards, owner of Peasant's Cafe. Originally concep- tualized as a mini-Lollapallooza of sorts where a few of the bands in Crumpton's Home Grown Music Net- work would travel the region play- ing several different venues; the idea was aborted when major booking problems became unavoidable. Over a pizza, the pair decided to take a different approach; they decided to have their bands all come together in Greenville and play over a week- end. In association with Steve Neragis of Orange Records and Mike Luba of Cellar Door. Crumpton and Edwards sold The Attic's owner, Joe Tronto on the idea and created the first Home Grown Music Festival. "Since its inception in Greenville, many people from not only North Carolina, but also South Carolina and Virginia are looking at the Festival. Should it be as successful as we be- lieve it will be, this type of event could spread all over the region Edwards said. Festival events will begin early on both Friday and Saturday nights at 6 p.m. with Agents of Good Roots and Keller Williams, respectively, playing live outside of CD Alley promoting the festival. Advance tickets are already availible for S15 at CD Alley, Peasant's and The Attic. An advance ticket en- titles the bearer to admission to both venues both nights and a free T-shirt. CD. Reviews Thurston Moore Psychic Hearts Kris Hoffler Staff Writer Have I ever told you how much 1 like Sonic Youth? I'll spare you the gory details. Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth has released a solo album, and need- less to say I'm having a hard time re- maining objec-tive about it Sonic Youth is a band that first ap- peared in the early '80s and helped to change the face of underground rock. Much of the crap you hear today was influenced by them directly or indirectly, but the fact that it's crap is not their fault Moore is one of the Youth's gui- tarists, but to say he plays lead or rhythm would be misleading; you can't really apply conventional rock lingo to ?. band with such a sound. Lee Ranaldo is the other guitarist for the Youth, and he helps Moore on this release as well, mixing and recording two of the songs. Kim Gordon, Sonic Youth bass player, didn't play at all on this release. Moore has had many side projects with REM, the deceased Kurt Cobain and various other artists, but Psychic Hearts is his first solo release. There are 15 tracks on this album that range from the wilderness landscapes of static noise that you would expect from Sonic Youth to some very structured and al- most conventional- sounding songs. The album opens with "Queen Bee and Her Pals This is a very structured song with a set pat- tern framing it the tempo shifts aie re- peated over and over. It's like four mea- sures of melodic sounds interspersed with rhythmic pound- ing; you really have to hear it to understand. The lyrics are consis- tent with what Moore has written before, filled with subtle re- bellion, subversion and sexual ambigu- ity: "Mr. Muscle man vou've got to stop and think, there was a time when God was dressed in pink Good stuff. The title track, "Psychic Hearts consists of two strummed chords and no more. This is a minimal song about people faced with hard circumstances. Then there is "Blues from Beyond the Grave an instrumental that is a shape shifter. It changes from melodic to cha- otic distortion to soft and minimal string picking and fades out. "Cherry's Blues" is an eerie song with only Moore and guitar. You can really hear the underproduc- tion on this song; the voice sounds distorted and flawed while the crackle and hiss of the amplifier are still audible. With this kind of music, the less a song gets cleaned up the bet- ter it will be. Allowing the background noises of electric equipment to come through is consistent with his work with Sonic Youth. When using noise as mu- Psychic Hearts is one more excursion into the abstract, a gift from one of the neo-masters of the art of the imperfect. sic, anything goes. The last track on the album is an epic study in textures, rhythm and soundscapes. "Elegy for All the Dead Rock Stars" has no lyrics and goes on for some 20 minutes. The song drifts in and out, changes, becomes hard, then soft, raging, then quiet. This is Moore pretending to be Jackson Pollock. It's kind of like he's standing over a canvas letting the paint drip from the brush to create random streaks and swirls that culminate in one beautiful mess. This is a great album, much more accessible than some of his early work with Sonic Youth, but consistent with their sound. Thurston. for you I'll tip my hat You and the Youth have taken the sounds of modem America (static, engines and machines, electric fans, traf- fic noise, city sounds, phones too long off the hook, a million heads stirring on their pillows) and made it into mu- sic.

Mark Brett Ufestyle Editor "Keep in touch With these words (or words much like them), many of us bid farewell last month to graduating friends. At the time, we meant it. In the emotional swells of saying goodbye, we were sure that noth- ing could keep us from remaining close to our departing pals. But now it's summer. They're gone, we're here, and life is moving on. You can't just call up Bob when you're bored, because Bob has moved to Venezuela. So you call Sam instead. You have every inten- tion to write Bob, but that summer class load is eating up a lot of your time. And besides, you're mostly hanging out with Sam these days. One thing leads to another, and old friends like Bob become after- thoughts. "I've got to write Bob" becomes "I'll write Bob if I get the time and then diminishes to "I wish I had written Bob It's a slow, steady decline that's difficult to stop. What got my mind on this was an encounter I had with some old friends from my hometown last weekend. I didn't meet them in col- lege, but these two guys were my very best friends in a difficult pe- riod of my life. Then, four years ago, we all went our separate ways. One of them lives in Arkansas now, the other in South Carolina. By an amazing fluke, all three of us were back in oi. hometown at the same time. We got together, and things were going great. We talked and laughed and did all the things that old friends do. It was almost like we'd never left town, that we were all four years younger, with more hair and a wild passion for slam dancing. We shared our latest con- spiracy theories and compared record collections. It was all turn- ing into some crappy, sentimental sitcom moment so we decided to go out and rent a movie. It was when we realized that the local Wal-Mart was a field the last time we saw each other that it sunk in. What had we been doing these last four years that was so damned important that we couldn't have at least dropped each other a letter? One of my friends had a baby last month, and I didn't know his wife was even pregnant! Major, life-changing events had taken place and we hadn't bothered to keep each other updated. This got me thinking about all the people I've left behind in my long college career, and all the ones who have left me. I remembered a letter I abandoned in February and really wished I hadn't lost the address. When we parted company the next day, we all vowed to keep in touch with each other. And we meant it.

Within the confines of the sub, communication is critical. Thus when a Russian sub attacks the Ala- bama and a series of events con- spire to make communication im- possible, the sub becomes deaf and blind. No commands can be relayed to the sub, thus leaving the sub lit- erally hanging in the water.

Though protocol requires a confirmation message before launching nuclear warheads, the time wasted waiting for that con- firmation would make the nuclear strike ineffective since the Soviet warheads would have already been launched. The dilemma faced by the Ala- bama crystallizes in the conscious- ness of the commanding officer, Captain Frank Ramsey (Gene Mack- man) and the executive officer, Lieutenant Commander Ron Hunter (Denzel Washington). Ramsey views the situation simply: he sees the last order as binding and thus sets the sub for launch depth. Hunter fears that Ramsey is being too hasty and is also violat- ing protocol. Thus Hunter puts Ramsey under arrest and locks him in his stateroom. Amid the power struggle on board the Alabama, a Russian sub still lurks in the water. Torpedoes are fired and a hair-raising chain of events unfold that threaten to sink the Alabama. The confusion caused by the Russian attack leads several officers to question Hunter's authority. They decide to recapture command of the boat for Ramsey by force. They raid an am- munition locker, unlock Ramsey, and prepare to confront Hunter while the threat of nuclear war looms ever closer. The tension in Crimson Tide mounts continually. The various battles being waged on board and outside the sub fully engage the viewer's attention. The USS Ala- bama becomes a microcosm of the world situation where two equally valid points of view must somehow be reconciled in the face of immi- nent danger. One of the main reasons Crim- son Tide works so effectively is the direction of Tony Scott. Scott's un- impressive resume, including Top Gun and Days of Thunder, give only a hint of his ability to orches- trate such a tense thriller. Last year's True Romance fi- nally awakened this critic to Scott's talents. With a good script Scott's slick, glossy direction can be a valu- able asset to a film. The trouble with Top Gun and Days of Thun- der was that the films had insipid writing. Quentin Tarrentino's script for True Romance gave Scott the necessary canvas on which to paint his glossy vision. Michael Schiffer's top-notch script for Crimson Tide has again provided Scott with the proper can- vas for his work. The picture Tony Scott paints borders on great art. For a thriller, one will not see much better than Crimson . Tide. Schiffer's story pits two men against each other, not protagonist and antagonist, but two men with different ideas. The fair treatment given to both Ramsey and Hunter strengthens the story by giving it complexity. Scott's camera work propels the tale by hurtling down narrow passageways and sliding under- neath catwalks while feet shuffle above. Shots of crewmen sliding down ladders intercut with exterior shots of the sub eftectively convey the confinement of the sub. Despite Scott's roving camera and quick edits, he also knows when to hold a shot with very little motion. Con- frontations between Hunter and Ramsey take place with very little intrusion by the director. Scott re- alizes that he has two incredible actors in front of his lens so he lets them fill the screen with tension. Scott's judgments have never been better. From beginning to end he knows how to shoot a scene for maximum effect. Hackman and Washington en- ergize the screen with their perfor- mances. Each actor brings a fully realized character to the story. Gene Hackman (which 1 have said before) can do very little wrong. For his impressive roster of film roles he rarely gives a bad performance, even in bad films. Washington has joined the ranks of premier lead- ing men - he gets top billing over Hackman. With steely coolness and silent grace, Washington fills his roles with a gentle but firm human- ity. Like Speed before it, Crimson Tide has set the pace for the sum- mer. A thriller with as much depth and as much momentum will be hard to find at a local theater. Crim- son Tide is the kind of film that gets one's adrenaline flowing. Get on board for adventure and see for yourself why "nothing can stop the tide On a scale of one to ten, Crim- son Tide rates an eight. MARSHALL from page 4 movies like Disclosure and Higher Learning are more than entertain- ment, Marshall says. Disclosure was requested by a professor who wanted to show her students the flip side of sexual discrimination. The controver- sial movie Higher Learning had a can- did discussion afterward. Marshall thought the discussion was educa- tional. "We took what we perceived as a problem and addressed it an educa- tional, provocative way Marshall said. Movies that will be playing this summer are Forrest Gump, Apocolypse Now and The Princess Bride. Gump opens the summer sea- son on Tuesday at 8 p.m. in Hendrix Theatre. The famed sex guru Dr. Ruth and respected linguist Noam Chaunsky have highlighted the lec- ture series in the past. Marshall is reluctant to move ahead in the next couple of years. He is interested in someday becom- ing head of student activities here or abroad, but only if he can stay in close contact with students.

L (AP) - With the possible move of the Atlantic Coast Conference baseball tournament, civic leaders are looking at making a South- eastern Confer- ence tourna- ment bid.

Glenn Thackston SEC Spokesman producing col- lege baseball tournaments in the country. The league's coaches think that holding it in Greenville gives nearby Clemson too much of an advantage. They voted to move it three years ago, but were over- ruled by the ath- letic directors. Durham, N.C is Greenville's main competitor for the tournament this time around. Gene Krcelic, president of Greenville Events Inc said that on Saturday he con- tacted SEC offi- cials about the bid process for that tournament. The SEC is going to an eight-team, neutral-site tournament next season after play- See ACC page 8 NBA referee could be ejected from playoffs File Photo The always-popular College Hill basketball courts are barren of any student life after the university yanked down the rims for the summer. After feud with Drexler, ref hasn't worked playoffs (AP) - NBA referee Jake O'Donnell. who had a run-in with the Houston Rockets' Clyde Drexler two weeks ago, may not work any more playoff games this season, ac- cording to a newspaper report. O'Donnell hasn't been as- signed to a game since ejecting Drexler from a playoff contest against Phoenix on May 9. Follow- ing an investigation, the NBA re- scinded all fines against Drexler. including the automatic $1,000 that comes with an ejection. The Houston Chronicle, quot- ing unidentified sources, reported Tuesday that O'Donnell's absence is a clear sigr the NBA didn't con- done his conduct in the Houston- Phoenix game. "There's no reasonable expla- nation why one of the league's best refs like Jake wouldn't be doing games a source told the paper. "It's obvious the league didn't like what happened in that game Another source said there's a chance O'Donnell won't work any more games during the playoffs. The NBA refused to comment. O'Donnell officiated games during the first round of the play- See REF page 8 Ok, so the Bulls are out of the playoffs and everyone is boo- hooing over Michael's inability to return his team to glory in the NBA race. It wasn't Jordan's lack of play - although he did seem to get tired and sloppy at the three-minute mark of every fourth quarter pretty consis- tently. The Bulls demise began as soon as their front-office brass decided not to resign Horace Grant, letting him and his everpresent colored goggles sign with Orlando. No one stepped up to fill his place, and not even the three-headed Bulls' center of Wennington, Longley and Perdue could make a last- ing impact on opposing centers. On the other hand, Orlando, an altogether well-balanced team, showed poise under pressure and ridded the playoffs of the Bulls and what would have been an endless glut of commercial- ized Mike-hype. The key to fu- ture success in Chicago will be how Jordan and the '96 version of the Bui's gel in training camp and during the early stages of next season, something that was missed badly and exposed in the playoffs this year. Speaking of Jordan, why do commish David Stern and the rest of the NBA upper crust care what jersey number is worn dur- ing a ball game? Like opposing defenders are not going to rec- ognize Jordan (or any player, for that matter) if Mike's wearing number 23 instead of 45. If an athlete is good enough to have a number retired, then it's his forever, meaning he should be able to don the "forbidden gar- ment" whenever he wants - without having to ask permis- sion from middle-aged short guys who sponge off Jordan's success anyways. Congrats to Evander Holyfield for taking a 10-round decision from Ray Mercer, add- ing a well-needed chunk of le- gitimacy to the upper echelon of the heavyweight picture.
