ECU plugs into new technology New fiber optic network deemed best in country Tambra Zion News Editor This article is the first in a series An expanding fiber optic net- work, combined with the new student database and a 10,000 line phone sys- tem are pushing ECU into the fore- front of technology. "When we are finally converted at the end of the summer, we will be the most techno- logically advanced university in the country in a com- prehensive way said Vice Chancel- lor of Business Af- fairs Richard Brown. "Other campuses will have bits and pieces, but not the whole thing Fiber optic wiring of all campus buildings is scheduled for completion by the end of August Several con- tractors have been hired to complete the project which began last year with the installation of cable televi- sion in the residence halls. "This network is going to put us on the leading edge of technology when completed said Chancellor Richard Eakin. "It provides us not only with high speed transactions, but also a contemporary modern cable system which allows us to trans- mit video throughout the world Computing and information sys- tems (CIS) employees have been working on the fiber optic network, and implementing a new student da- tabase for more than two years, said Donald Dunlap. associate director of CIS. Last month, a new Windows-based student data- base replaced the UNISYS sys- tem the univer- sity has used for the past several years. The new database runs through the fi- ber optic net- work. Dunlap said the UNISYS was working well, but the new database is much more user friendly and can expand to allow more types of soft- ware. "The main part of the conver- sion is done Dunlap said. "Even though we have. I think, the best pro- gramming staff we could have, they're not perfect He said bugs would need to be worked out of the system as it comes on-line. Testing the new database came during first summer session registra- tion two weeks ago. Students could not register in eight buildings which have yet to be wired for fiber optics. These buildings were marked by red dots on the doors. "All things considered, registra- tion went pretty smoothly said Michael Balko Jr. university cashier. "Most students didn't even know there was a conversion. The comput- ers went down for about an hour, but when you're dealing with 63 or 64 hundred people, I'd say it went pretty smoothly Brown said the computer failure was caused by workers trying to bring two buildings on-line at the same time. The massive amount of information overloaded the system. "Currently, it's (the new data- base) up and running said Nora D. Tucker an office assistant in the de- cision sciences department. "I've done some searches, it just takes time to leam a new system The new IBM-type database op- erates on a relational system rather than a hierarchical one, Dunlap said. This means more information can be obtained through less channels. He said CIS offered training classes for all academic departments. "I like the new network fortu- nately all the problems have been minor said Angela Robins, assistant registrar. "The transaction time is a lot faster and it's more friendly. It's a Windows-based environment Not everyone is enjoying the. transition from old to new. "I'm sure that sooner or later See FUTURE page 2 "This network is going to put us on the leading edge of technology when completed � Chancellor Richard Eakin Police nab crooks Police recover bikes after intensive search Laura Jackman Staff Writer ECU students aren't the only ones complaining about stolen bikes. It is now an issue for ECU's Police Department On April 27, two police bicycles valued at over $.1,000 each, were sto- len from the front porch of the police department on 10th Street after they were left unlocked and unattended. After an intensive two week investi- gation, the bikes were recovered, one from as far away as California. "One bike was destroyed. They painted on it and scratched the serial number off which is against the law said Teresa Crocker, director of ECU Police. During the investigation, officers talked to hundreds of people before breaking the case with a tip from Crime Stoppers. The thief that got as far as Cali- fornia is being "brought back to have charges pressed against him Crocker said. He, along with the other cul- prit, will faces felony charges. "It's really up to the courts right now as far as what happens to these guys But it did not have to get that far. The officers offered anyone the opportunity to lay the bikes on the 50-yard line of Dowdy-Ficklen Sta- dium, but nothing came of that "They snouldn't have been left unsecured on the front porch just because we're the victims in this doesn't make it any different than anyone else Crocker said. In lieu of this recent crime, the ECU Police department continues to stress theft prevention. "Basically, we try to stress num- ber one, bike registration said Sgt Adolphous Fonville, crime prevention officer for ECU police. "If a stolen bike hasn't been defaced, proper registra- tion with us helps with bike recovery. "It's also important to have a worthy U-bolt lock and when locking sthe bike, make sure it's attached to a tire as well as the frame. This will ensure thieves have to use measures that they wouldn't want to use to get the bike Sgt Fonville also stressed that simply locking a tire to the frame and not onto a bike rack is not enough deterrent for theft. It provides little prevention, if any. "If it's worth riding, it's worth securing it Fonville said. "And if these measures are properly followed, there would be a large reduction in bike theft across campus Editor bids farewell to journal Z5. ter. Photo by JACK SKINNER Dr. Donald Lawler sits at his desk where he has spent almost a decade editing The Victorian Institute Journal. u Marguerite Benjamin Staff Writer After 16 years of hard work and outstanding progress, ECU is ending its production of one of the nation's most prestigious literary journals. Dr. Donald Lawler, an English professor, has been the journal's edi- tor since it was brought to ECU. Be- fore, the journal was published at Old Dominion University. The Victorian Institute Journal (VIJ) originated from the writings of a small group of Victorian scholars, a group of researchers and educators who would get together to discuss and enjoy the literature, art and history of the Victorians. "The group was known simply as the Victorian Institute, and the VIJ was just a collection of the papers pre- sented in the meetings as most jour- nals are Lawler, who plans to retire this year, said. "When the VIJ came to us Lawler continued, "it became the goal of the university to improve the scope of the journal and expand its cover- age and quality. It was intended that the journal would develop a charac- "Then when Dr. Keats Sparrow resigned after editing the first two is- sues, I inherited the job and that goal Under Lawler's leadership, along with Erwin Hester, who served on the advisor board, McKay Sundwall, an associate editor, and others, the VIJ grew in size and reputation. Lawler laid out various editions on his desk from the first few issues to the last including Volume 20, decorated in purple and gold in celebration of ECU's 20th anniversary. From the smaller, plain-covered first editions, the journal has tripled in size. Vol- umes 19 through 20 are beautifully crafted. "The colorswe used in the design are those frequently found in Victorian art, and the design we used in these last few issues actu- ally came from a pattern from the wallpaper of William Morrison, who revived the art of bookmaking Lawler said. "On the cover, the acronym VIJ is written in Victorian typeface, and the crown design and monogram are the exact design that was on the invi- tation to the queen to be Victoria's coronation. "On the back Lawler continued, "is a cameo with the profile of a young queen Victoria. So, you can see, the journal has come a long way, and we have aspired to keep it as Victorian as possible Lawler said working with the journal was such a demanding job that it barely left him enough time to com- plete his own work. "There were times that I would just close shop for a few days because I simply could not take it anymore. I feel that 14 years is about as long as anyone should work on one thing Lawler said. For this reason, Lawler decided to retire as editor of the journal to work on his own projects. The 1993 edition of VIJ was Lawler's last as editor. "The jour- nal has now gone on to 'Blue Heaven Lawler said, meaning that the journal has been handed over to the University of North Carolina where the coeditors are at Chapel Hill and Greensboro. "They have the resources to continue doing great things with the journal since they have their own printing press and better levels of funding. "Still we are proud of what we were able to do for the journal here at ECU. We realized our goal Lawler said.

According to Dr. Kenneth Marks, director of academic library services, the library computer sys- tem is completely operational ex- cept for one component. "Our CD-ROM network is still not fully functioning as it was be- fore due to one computer which is still being reprogrammed Marks said. "That computer was the file server that ran the CD-ROM por- tion of the network. Some cards in the computer were damaged. The other two pieces of equipment and the furnishings and carpet have been restored to their previous con- dition Marks said the repairs will hopefully be completed this week. "Anybody who has worked with computers knows that any kind of work that has to be done on them always takes longer than expected Marks said. "You can have a goal, and ours is this week, but whether or not you can meet that goal is another matter According to Ann Stocks, a computing support technician for Joyner Library, the goal is close to being met. "We have a file server up and running and we are back-up with most of the CD- ROM products and the librarys on-line catalog Stocks said. "There are still a few problems in some indi- vidual public work stations, but we do ex- pect to have those corrected by the end of the week If students, have any "Our CD-ROM network is still not fully functioning as it was before due to one computer which is still being reprogrammed � Dr. Kenneth Marks CD-ROM database Marks said. "Nothing is inaccessible, some things just are not as conveniently accessible as they were.

Bruce L. Flye, Jr director of facilities plan- ning, design and construction, was unavailable for specific cost estimates.

"As an interim solution, we have the four freestanding multime- dia work stations that include the basement and other potential flood areas have been sealed with cement to prevent any similar instances of flooding from occurring. "I can't imagine that we would ever have a repeat of that event he said. FUTURE from page 1 they'll have this thing worked out, but right now its been an enormous hassle Associate English Professor Dr. Paul Dowell said during registration. "Right now, in this office, it's been down more than it's been up He said the computers are cur- rently working. Financial Aid is planning to use Ihe newer and faster communications ca- pabilities, but change does not always come overnight "We will still be writing those infa- mous financial aid checks this year, '95- '96, and students will still have to go to the cashier's office or the student loans office to endorse those checks said Rose Mary Stelma. director of financial aid. "We are however, going to begin the development in the next couple of months of an electronic process where all of the financial aid that we control in our office will be credited on an au- tomated basis so that students will not have to endorse their student loan checks She said the federal government would not allow for the elimination of all paperwork, but that the financial aid office plans to drastically reduce the amount of paperwork in years to come. Stelma heads the Administrative Computing Committee (ACC), a group which makes decisions as to what tech- nological advances ECU can make and when. "We review requests for enhance- ments to the system and try to priori- tize those so that the things that are going to benefit the most to people, are the projects that get the most attention initially Stelma said. JCDI1 OK. from page 1 The walls of Lawler's office in ECU's General Classroom Building seem to be made of awards as the jour- nal and former editor have been rec- ognized by many organizations for several areas of achievement. "We got our first award in 1987 from the North Carolina Victorian's Association. It was a local state orga- nization, but we are proud, as we have been with all of our awards. The jour- nal brought the university some posi- tive recognition we were very happy to have Lawler said. Perhaps the most prestigious of these tokens of recognition was awarded by the Council of Editors of Learned Journals (CEU), which rarely gives more than one award to the same organization. Lawler has received three including the Phoenix Awaid for the Best Editorial Achievement in 1988-89, the Best Journal Design Award in 1993- 94 and the 1994-95 Distinguished Re- tiring Editor Award. "That's the one I would save from a fire if I could onlv choose one Lawler said. "The Distinguished Retir- ing Editor award defines a career as an editor. After you've put your best work into something, it's nice to have someone give you a pat on the back Lawler went on to express that the award was much more than a pat on the back. "I know a lot of the people who have received this award, and to find oneself in that type of company is sim- ply amazing Lawler said.

Miles Layton Staff Writer nHHMMHMMMMBMMi Imagine a new world order per- fected in art. An explosive, creative new social order where the individual plays a crucial role. Art so startling could only be the Joseph Beuys Sym- posium shown at the Gray Art Gal- lery May 27 through July 15. Brought by the Federal Republic of Germany, East Carolina was cho- sen as one of only seven sites in the United States to host the 80-piece exhibit worth over $7 million. The exhibit features drawings and videos of Beuvs' performance art. Themes of new life infused from dis- covering the world cause an introspec- tive voyage of thought. Unconven- tional and bizarre, Beuys' drawings were made with simple substances like coffee, tea and water dissolved in rust or iodine. Pictures of words and im- ages illustrate the brush strokes of his imagination. Concerned with transforming the individual and society, Beuys' perfor- mance art sprang from the idea that wax, fat, honey and felt are chaotic liquid when hot. Cold, these sub- stances are orderly - like man. The artist believed his performances had a spiritual energy. Sponsored by a partial grant from the North Carolina Arts Council, the exhibition and symposium are free to the public. Several professors will speak of the artist's work on June 1. Moderated by Teresa Norton, the Tho- mas Rivers Chair at East Carolina, there will be a panel discussion at 3:30 p.m. in Speight auditoruim. A public reception in Gray Art Gallery at 4:30 p.m will follow the discussion. "Everybody is an artist Beuys said, but while this is true, not every- one is a Beuys. Art is affected by life, and his life mirrored his art. Born in Germany, he served as a dive bomber in World War II. He was shot down over Russia and rescued by nomadic Tartars who wrapped him in animal fat to keep him from freezing to death. Despite a head injury, Beuys survived the war in a Cold War German soci- ety trying to reconcile itself with two World Wars and the Holocaust. Most German artists wondered how to make art after Auschwitz. Beuys thought art should not be em- barrassed from experience but be- come more than art. Beuys was a political activist who felt art should not be reserved for the Moon Boot Lover Live Down Deep The Beggars Beggars i Brandon Waddetl Assistant Lifestyle Editor Whether or not a band has any talent, it takes guts to release a live CD. A release free from overproduc- tion or editing showcases the band in its rawest form, but it's also that much more difficult to hide mistakes frequently made during live perfor- mances. When mistakes are made, a live crowd is much more unforgiving than a producer who can easily say, "Alright guys, let's try that chorus one more time Moon Boot Lover (MBL) recorded all the tracks on Live Down Deep (much as the title implies) at a live show last Novem- ber in Albany, NY. I have seen their name on the performers' list for the Home Grown Music Festival, but this is the first time I've ever heard their music. It seems MBL has a knack for perform- ing songs in a manner that compels the listener to close his eyes and paint a mental picture from what he's hearing. For me, the vision is clear. The fourth track, "NYC has me feeling the blues. Stout cigar smoke like a thick blanket covers me, the over- bearing atmosphere of bourbon and stale beer that clogs the air in a hole- in-the-wall bar on the proverbial wrong side of the tracks.

Island records has done just that with the press release for their new band. Beggars. Maybe I shouldn't expect too much because they are young; the av- erage age of the members of Beggars is 21. The lead singer (Eli Braden) and guitarist (Jeremy Kunz) have been play- ing together since high school, which was only about three years ago for them. They had their start playing around Rockford, Illinois and that is where they got their big break. One fateful night they were opening up for The Call (an old school San Francisco punk outfit) and the lead singer liked them so much he volunteered to pro- duce their first album. They moved to San Francisco, got a bassist and a drummer and the rest is history. Island records offered them a deal and now we have their first untitled release. Their sound is pop. The sound is very similar to many other popalter- native bands that you can hear today. The Stone Roses, Oasis and The Ocean Blue come to mind. Their sound is very familiar think I can even hear the vocal melodies of Madonna in some of the songs; one of them sounds exactly like "Like a Prayer" in its vocal intona- See BEGGARS page 4 wealthy or the elite. He co-founded the Green party. He loved fine things like caviar and expensive clothes, and he owned a Bentley. His trademarks were his Stetson hats, which covered his war wounds. Before Beuys' death in 1986, he began organizing his art work into collections called blocks He consid- ered these blocks reservoirs of spiri- tual energy. They represent time peri- ods and themes of his hfe. The 80- piece collection is a cross section of these blocks of work. Gunter- Minas, a freelance art historian, is commissioned by the Fed- eral Republic of Germany to exhibit the Beuys collection. Owned by the government, the collection's five-year mission is to demonstrate German culture.

His look mimics that of our reviewer upon seeing Die Hard III. Ike Shibley Staff Writer I recently watched Die Hard II: Die Harder on tape. Though pleas- antly surprised by the film when it originally opened I found watching it again surprisingly unsatisfying. The contrivances of the plot became a little too apparent, the twists in the tale seemed a little shocking, and the plot holes appeared all too frequently. Since I expected little from Die Hard With a Vengeance, I must ad- mit the film pleased me. However, armed with the recent viewing of the second installment, I know that a re- peated viewing of Die Hard With a Vengeance will only prove disappoint- ing. The thrill of the game has less- ened with each sequel. Whereas the original Die Hard virtually jumped off the screen with explosions and ten- sion, it also generated some (almost) three-dimensional characters. John Mclean was a real guy caught in a bad situation. Mclean's wife Holly got to demonstrate just why her husband called her stubborn. Even the police officer Mclean chatted with on the phone had nuances (remember the Twinkies he ate?) that made his char- acter seem more real. Plus Alan Rickman portrayed one of the most suave and eloquent villains to appear in an action film. The two Die Hard sequels have had to make the action bigger and the plot more complex in order to hold viewer's attention. In the process, some of the thril! has been lost. One comes to expect John Mclean to beat the odds. Instead of wondering if he will. the question be- comes how he will. John McTiernan. who di- rected the original Die Hard (but sur- rendered the reigns to Renny Harlin for the second one), is at the helm for Die Hard With a Vengengeance. McTiernan seems to be working too hard for thrills in this film. He does a workman- like job but the artistic side of him does not surface. McTiernan proved his directorial mettle with Die Hard and Hunt for Red October but slipped recently with The Last Action Hero. Since both Die Hard and The Hunt for Red October took place in confined spaces one is apt to conclude that McTieman's ar- tistic side is forced to emerge when he has boundaries. In Die Hard With a Vengeance, McTiernan has no boundaries, so he spends the entire film trying to flex his machismo style instead of crafting a taut, exciting, intelligent action film. McTiernan does know how to choreograph action. After a compul- sory establishing shot of New York City, an entire department store blows up. Talk about beginning a film with a bang! McTiernan works better though in close spaces, as evidenced by a tense elevator ride in which Mclean disposes of four terrorists. The explosion of the department store is designed to get the attention of the NYPD. The terrorist, who calls himself Simon (Jeremy Irons), says that he wants to play a game of Simon Says with John Mclean (Bruce Willis). Any failure by Mclean to follow Simon's instructions exactly will re- sult in another building being blown up. The first third of the story really zips along as Mclean is forced into several precarious situa- tions. In his first assigned task Mclean must walk along the streets of Harlem wear- ing a sign reading "I Hate Niggers Just before being bludgeoned by a group of harlem youths, Mclean is rescued by a pawn shop owner named Zeus (Samuel L. Jackson). Simon decides to send Zeus along with Mclean for the rest of the game. So, Mclean and Zeus must an- swer a riddle about a man going to St. Ives and find out how to measure four gallons of water using a three gallon and a five gallon container. The tricks of Simon prove enjoy- able but soon Die Hard With a Ven- geance deteriorates into the typical mind-numbing action film where the coincidences pile up faster than the bodies. When Mclean uses an aspirin bottle to track Simon, and Zeus hap- pens to be passing a sewer that Mclean shoots out of (the circumstances are "The tricks prove enjoyable but soon Die Hard With a Vengeance deteriorates into the typical mind- numbing action film See DIE page 4 4gr Fact: Motor vehicles use half of the oil consumed in the US.

It's just some slimy telemarketer, violating our right to privacy by attempting to com- mit acts of commerce via the telephone wire. I hope there's a particularly vile space re- served in Hell for the bastard who came up with the idea of selling stuff over the phone (something involving rats and human feces would be nice). Of course, this one might have come from the desk of Sa- tan himself. I can't believe we let this go on. A nameless, faceless voice comes to us over the phone, hastily explains a com- plicated business transaction, and expects us to go for it like a dog being offered a particu- larly succulent bone. I don't know about anybody else, but I zone out on a telemarketing sales pitch about three sen- tences in (when I bother to lis- ten at all). Oh yeah! Sign me up for that! And even more annoying than the sales pitch itself is the attitude the callers take. I haven't spoken with a telemarketer yet who didn't act like they thought they were do- ing me a favor by hawking their chintzy wares directly into my living room. Not once has a caller apologized for interrupt- ing my day, even when told that I was eating! And there's noth- ing less appealing than soggy corn flakes. We could plot vengeance against these vile demons of commerce by thinking up ways to annoy them as much as they annoy us. We could, for instance, of- fer to sell them something even more useless than what they're offering us. "No, I'm not inter- ested in coating my house in polyvinyl spray paint, thanks, but could I interest you in five tons of llama sperm?" Or we could try juvenile phone pranks. "Could I speak to Lou Zer, please?" Or we could even act like nutcases and scare them off the line. There's the manic ap- proach: "Hello, Joe or "No! I don't want any herpes Then there's the calm, deadly method: "I know where you live But this isn't entirely fair. The people making the calls aren't really the ones at fault here. They're probably just col- lege students like us, trying to make a few bucks on the side. They don't deserve our abuse. But simply telling them that we're not interested isn't always enough. Some of these people go for the hard sell and trap us on the line saying "I don't want any" for an hour. So what can we do? I just hang up on them. It's simple, effective, and you don't have to take any crap. Sure it's a little rude, but they're the ones thrusting the hoary head of commerce into my living room. Why should they mind if I chop it off? mmimm Wednesday, May 31, 1995 ��inifiiiifnuaMii The East Carolinian L MOON from page 3 worker seated beside me as we ex- change hard luck stories. In a drunken slur he turns to me and asks, "Hey bud, how many times has your wife cheated on you?" Just as "NYC's" chorus goes into its finale, the Marlboro Red smoking, heart-attack-prone gent wipes the brown liquor from his nappy beard and falls off the bar stool onto the sticky floor. As he hits the floor, an upbeat track entitled "Carol Lynn" follows and completely lifts my solemn spirit. Based out of Woodstock, NY, MBL is a quartet which attributes its distinctive sound to a variety of influences.

From beginning to end. MBL shows off a wide variety of sounds. Though parts of the CD are slow and some songs are accompanied by an annoying, cheesy, Doors-like organ sound, the overall effort is worthy of high marks. This release is cur- rently available and is definitely worth the time and monetary invest- ment. MBL, along with 10 other bands, will perform next weekend during the Home Grown Music Fes- tival. I'm eager to check this band out up close and personal. I also look forward to sitting beside my "NYC" bluesy companion at Peasant's. tions. The opening track, "Falling Down sounds so familiar it's scary. The lyrics are downright weak. "1 got nowhere to go I got nothing to show I'm just hanging around with my head to the ground The rest of the songs are just about this original, which is not very original if you ask me. "Lovely Soul Detonator" is a little heavier than the opening track, with the use of some heavy distortion and a wah- wah pedal. They are good at twisting two melodies together, it's just that they don't take any chances. This song is so predictable it hurts. "Stray" is the one acoustic track on this release. The song's base is the continual acoustic strumming of two chords overlaid with some sparse har- monies from an electric. The subject matter is familiar; it's a song about leav- ing and coming back home. Tell mom not to worry: they won't do anything that she wouldn't like. Like play some- thing original. The last song on this release is the darkest song on the disc. Heavily laden with feedback and screeching guitars. "I Want You" opens with a cacophony and then fades to a recognizable melody. This melody comes straight from L'2: it sounds exactly like the guitar work in "Zooropa Since Island is U2's label it seems like someone would have noticed this, but then again we are talking about record company executives. They have the collective taste of a 12-year-oid. If you like to hear melodies origi- nally produced by better bands, this would be one to pick up. I think Beg- gars is a recycle band. Why let a good melody go to waste? 1 mean, if it worked for another band i' should work for them. Let's hear it for pathetic redun- dancy. too ridiculous to explain), the audi- ence feels insulted. For an action film to use such obvious tricks is like a guy yawning at the movies to put an arm around his date. Bruce Willis still retains his smug veneer but it is wearing thin. Willis proved this year that he could re- ally act (in both Nobody's Fool and Pulp Fiction), but in Die Hard With a Vengeance, he is there only to collect a paycheck. Samuel L. Jackson, the hardest working man in Hollywood right now, again proves reliable. He brings humor to Zeus and does the best he can with the limited dimensions of the character. Jeremv Irons does better before he appears on screen. His voice proves quite unnerving (shades of his Scar voice for The Lion King), but once he appears, he is too much like any other foreign psychotic ac- tion film villain (he even adopts a German accent). Die Hard With a Vengeance of- fers little new to the audience. Hope- fully the only other time I'll want to see a Die Ha,d film is when I rent the original. This series has run out of gas. Willis needs to find another vehicle. On a scale of one to ten, Die Hard With a Vengeance rates a six.

Every year we are in the same place, the classroom. When will ECU begin to recognize this national holiday? Memorial Day: Webster's dictionary states, "a U.S. holiday officially celebrated on the last Monday in May in honor of members of the armed forces killed in war This definition seems to point to patriotism, respectful ob- servance and remembrance, does it not? Then it is completely absurd to hold classes and have a regular business day like we had this Memorial Day. The belief that having classes last Monday would not disturb the fragile, tranquil flow of teacher-student relations achieved in these last two weeks of summer school is ludicrous. Or so the right num- ber of calendar days, on someone's calendar, will pass between summer sessions and the beginning of the fall semester is an- other justification that should be tossed in the garbage. Since the students have to be here, the professors have to be here and the rest of the staff also has to be here. Making certain salaried state employees come to work and giving oth- ers the day off would be unfair, after all. But wouldn't it be much fairer if the residents of North Carolina's university sys- tem had the day off just like the rest of the country? We are not trying to contend that if classes were canceled, everyone even remotely associated with ECU would spend the entire day sulking solemnly at home paying their respects to our nation's fallen heroes of war. But Memorial Day is com- monly known as the first day of summer and many folks spend it having a barbecue, visiting the neighborhood pool or just spending some long overdue quality time with the family. Especially in eastern North Carolina, these issues dealing with military personnel should be handled with more care. A large portion of Pitt County's tax base is paid by either active, reserve or retired military personnel, many of whom are natu- rally sensitive to the issue of having Memorial Day come and go without so much as a pause taken by this campus. The primary issue involved is the true meaning of the holi- day. Each time someone was killed in war, families were up- ended and dreams were extinguished. All the servicemen hon- ored on this day died ensuring all Americans the freedoms enjoyed today. As long as America is the single, strongest mili- tary power in the world, we suppose not pausing to honor the military's fallen comrades won't weaken us globally, but such an issue as disregarding Memorial Day as a U.S. holiday cer- tainly doesn't strengthen morale. Laziness is not a factor in our argument. There just doesn't seem to be a clear answer as to why we worked or attended classes on a day when the rest of the country relaxed. Dance of the deranged ;? Lots of strange things in the news lately, lots of stories to worry those in the crowd whose weirdness antennae are up and receiving for the better portion of our waking lives. We'd enjoyed a lull in the lu- nacy for a while, a quiet period of relative calm where the biggest sur- prise turned out to be the day when we all found out that it was indeed a wax dummy of 0) that has been sitting at the defense table all these long months. Out in San Diego, an unem- ployed Army vet stole a tank from a National Cuard armory and went on a 20-minute rampage that ground cars, telephone poles and fire hy- drants into vague memories of their former functionalism. No bystanders were hurt, but still, it must have been one hell of a sight to greet you as you just step out of the Dairy Queen. That same day, a microbiologist as San Luis Obispo announced that he had successfully revived a strain of 30-million-year-old bacteria that he had recovered from the stomach of an amber-imprisoned wasp. Those of you who have seen Jurassic Park know how this is supposedly done. Upon hearing this news, I im- mediately went out and started buy- ing canned food, and cement for my isolation bunker. "Poking a spore that's been hit- ting the snooze button for 30 mil- lion years I thought in horror. "Now that's smart, to be fooling around with something that was kicking happily around the planet long before the first fish came up with the idea of putting a conve- nience mart up on land" Everyone I talked to about this said the same thing. We're doomed. We haven't even licked the common cold yet, and here's some cipher sci- entist who's messing around with a Brian Wright Opinion Columnist The maniacal mambo: It's got a wierd beat, and you'd better not dance to it. cranky bacterium with the worst case of morning breath in history. My friend Stephanie and I have lately gotten into the habit of run- ning a nightly Doom-Watch during the late evening news. It seems like every day, there's at least one item in the mix that gives me the grim creeps. On a good day, there can be three or four. Those who don't work on the graveyard shift think that we do it out of that never-day-die, get-up-and- go mojo. On occasion this is true, but in most instances, we're not feel- ing too ambitious after 2 a.m. The thing that most night owls are, how- ever, is paranoid. That's why I tune in so faith- fully to the tragic and unbelievable every night. If you really must think that there's always someone behind you, it's at least nice to have it af- firmed now and then. The story of Tank Man struck a particularly resonant chord with me, because, with the possible exclusion of the tank, it's something that could happen any lime, anywhere, to anyone. According to the news- paper, the guy "just snapped and used his "know-how" to get into the armory an five-finger the unusual choice of vehicles. Stephanie and i mediated for a while on the concept of "snapping It's happening more and more often these days, or at least now it's get- ting more press. Snapping. It sounds like an em- barrassing social blunder, doesn't it? Like it would make for an awful indiscretion in a public place. Snap- ping in an elevator, for instance - "Okay, who snapped in here?" Imagine the over-the-counter medications for this affliction: Snap-Ex, which reduces mental stress and bloating brought on by despair and heartbreak, use only as directed, thought. Wouldn't want you to get too mellow there. It would also be convenient (not to mention safer) if a person snapping produced a highly audible sound, like the breaking of a dry tree branch. It would be fitting, but unfortunately, we don't have such early warning benefits. My girlfriend doesn't watch the news. She says it depresses her, and I expect a lot of people out there feel the same way. I, on the other hand, am a media junkie. It lets me know what places 1 should be es- pecially careful around. California, I've decided, is not a fun place to be this time of year. If some 30-million-year-old bacterial, bogeyman doesn't jump up in your face out of a mummified wasp's gut, then you could just as easily get squashed in the street by a loon behind the wheel of an M-60 tank. I've been cursed before for making light of lightless situations before, but sometimes, humor is the only buffer you have. Don't want any mental ulcers. Enjoy your week- end, people, but watch how you wield your know-how: it could get you shot, infected, or just plain run over.

It's nice to be nice I am not complaining, lecturing or speech-making today. I am saying thank you because, in my opinion, there are a lot of really great people on this campus and too often they get ignored while attention is lav- ished on the people causing trouble. I have been at ECU for two se- mesters now and I am constantly amazed at how friendly and helpful most people are, including other stu- dents, professors, and, yes, even some campus bureaucrats (I will mention no names to avoid inflating egos or hurting feelings). ECU is criticized by outsiders for being a "party" school, and it is criticized by insid- ers (students mostly) for what often seems like thousands of ridiculous rules and regulations that seem to hold-up progress in every area of cam- pus life. I am not (in this column, any- way) going into whether those criti- cisms are deserved or not: however, I am going to say that whatever the shortcomings of this university may be, it has a great overall attitude. The people in my classes talk to each Andi Powell Phillips Opinion Columnist Transferring to a new school is difficult, but nice people sure can make the transition easier other, exchange phone numbers for studying, and really get to know each other. Most of my professors have gone out of their way not just to teach their subject, but to really try to make it interesting (even my logic professor, and you know he had some hard work to do there!) And, don't tell anyone, but I've met a few cour- teous and helpful people in Finan- cial Aid and the Cashier's Office (I will not mention names here either as I'm afraid the bad people in both of these offices know people, if you know what I mean). You may not think these little things are a big deal, but take it from someone who transferred here from a university with a lousy attitude - it is a big deal. It can make all the difference in the world to whether or not you learn anything , or even actually go to class, or even make it through your freshman year. I don't mean to say that every- one I have met on this campus is ab- solutely wonderful and I skip off to my eight o'clock classes with a song in my heart and a bluebird on my shoulder, but, in general, the major- ity of the time, I like being a student here. I think this campus has a real heart to it (and, often, a very quirky sense of humor too) and that is be- cause of all of you who are students, faculty or staff here. Give yourselves a pat on the back and then get over it because this is it for the mushy stuff. I'll have to think of something big to complain about next week to live this down. Money shouldn't mean power There's no justice in govern- ment. We all know government is cor- rupt, but I have proof. The proof (and fhe truth) lies within the four-foot- nigh stack of papers my mother has been struggling with for the past five years. Her ex-husband was a very powerful man who kept several prominent government officials in his pocket (the one with the checkbook). When she decided she could no longer live life with this man, he de- cided to ruin her life. Without a doubt he has done so. Over the past five years I have watched every aspect of my mother's life deteriorate. Her health is poor. She can no longer afford lawyers. She can't sell her home or her business because she is tied up in lawsuits with a dead man. That's right, he died in December, but the state of North Carolina has continued to prosecute and persecute every area of her life. If you don't believe me, ask her, she'd be glad to tell you Tambra Zion Opinion Columnist "All she tried to do was separate herself from an abusive marriage and an abusive man. � about it, but you probably don't have the time to sort through the hours, and years, of legal paperwork she is forced to face everyday. She has made several trips to Washington, D.C. seeking an injunc- tion against the state, but justice has yet to be found for her. Her cases are lost, trumped up and some are blatantly false. She begged The News and Observer to help her publicize the awful prejudices she suffers from, but they wouldn't touch it I guess The News and Observer's bark is worse than its bite when it comes to actually being a government watch- dog, or maybe they don't have any decent investigative reporters willing to make the effort All of her avenues for seeking help have been exhausted with time and her life is continually being squeezed out of existence by bureaucracy. I don't think the state wants to put her behind bars, but they don't need to, her life is ruined just the same. Whatever the case, North Caro- lina has wedged this law abiding citi- zen directly between a rock and a hard place. All she tried to do was sepa- rate herself from an abusive marriage and an abusive man. She wants noth- ing more than to get out of the state and live her life in peace, but that American dream can't be obtained when American government (and the American dollar) gets involved. n Letters to the Editor To the Editor: Last semester, I reported several in- dividuals for unauthorized parking in handicapped spaces. The traffic office would call the. individual and request that they move their vehicles. One individual car, a two door green camaro, I reported more than eight times. The individual was called for the first six violations and asked to move their car. I spoke to Pat Gertz in the traffic office when the seventh viola- tion occurred. She personally called the instructor and requested that the car be moved. The individual made the comment that she could not understand why "those people" got all the good parking spaces. On the eighth occurrence I insisted that the camaro be towed. An individual in the traffic office told me that staff cars are never towed. Unofficially she stated that the officers could not even ticket the cars until the individuals were called and given the opportunity to move their vehicles. On the eighth occasion I went to the traffic office in person and insisted a ticket be issued. An individual in the traffic office told me the ticket was ap- pealed and the individual was not held liable because it was the first offense! Why are there two standards for dealing with traffic violations? Why are students not afforded the opportunity to move their vehicles prior to the issu- ance of a ticket? Please do not insult my intelligence by quoting rules and regula- tions that are not bias. I know that they exist I want to know why they are not enforced? Anthony Morace, Jr. Senior English Education To the Editor: It seems lately that North Carolina is gaining a reputation as one of America's best places to be. Money Magazine ranks Raleigh-Durham as the best place to live and other large cities such as Charlotte and Greensboro are experiencing stable and growing econo- mies. As the Tarheel state receives all of this great publicity for attracting indus- try and high paying jobs to ensure a better way of life, myself along with other native eastern North Carolinians are say- ing "what jobs?" I admit that I'm proud that North Carolina is gaining a reputation for growth, but the eastern portion of the state has yet to receive any amount of dramatic growth in the past few years compared to the rest of the state and nation. While the Piedmont is gaining industry, the East is losing industry ev- ery day. Just last month, employees were notified at Wellcome that the merger with Glaxo would layoff 100 people in Greenville while Black and Decker in Tarboro, Edgecombe county's largest em- ployer, stated it was closing it's sic doors while a plant in Pinetops that manufac- turers car parts for GM made the an- nouncement last week that they will be laying off 300 employees and closing in the near future. More people need to confront their county board members and write to lo- cal representatives like Eva Clayton in an effort to find some answers as to why some areas ofour state are escalating up as parts of the East are stepping back.

He was released by the San Francisco Giants following the positive test, and the players associa- tion has filed a grievance in an at- tempt to get him paid. The case is to be heard June 19 by arbitrator George Nicolau. "I had several additional conver- sations with George this weekend in respect to how the arbitration involv- ing the release from the Giants works and when he thought we would have a clearer picture of Darryl's availabil- ity agent Bill Goldstein told the Post Strawberry hit .239 with four homers and 17 RBIs in 29 games with the Giants last year after being re- leased by the Los Angeles Dodgers and spending 28 days at the Betty Ford Center for a substance abuse problem. "Returning to New York would probably be the best thing that ever happened to me said Strawberry, who hit .263 with 252 homers and 733 RBIs in eight seasons with the the Mets. "I'd love the challenge. People have the wrong impression of me com- ing to New York. That (the drug part) of my life is over with Earlier this year, Strawberry pleaded guilty to tax evasion. He was sentenced to three years' probation, starting with six months under house arrest at his home in Rancho Mirage. He must pay the government about $350,000 in back taxes, interest and penalties. Marlin hurler belts grand slam First pitcher since 1986 season to accomplish feat (AP) - Chris Hammond made all pitchers proud. Forget that he had a five-run lead and couldn't get through five innings to get the win. The Florida Marlins left-hander hit a grand slam, the first by any pitcher in nearly nine years. It was one of a season-high 19 hits for the Marlins in a 9-7 victory over the Houston Astros Monday night, but it was a one in a lifetime moment for Hammond. "As soon as you hit it, it feels like a second set of lights come on said Hammond, a lifetime .201 hitter with four career homers. Hammond struggled to suppress a smile as he trotted home, broke into a grin in the dugout, then briefly stepped back onto the field when the crowd demanded a curtain call. "It's probably the only curtain call I'll get my whole life he said. "I had a couple of guys from the bullpen tell me they had chill bumps from the crowd's reaction The last pitcher to have provided chill bumps with a grand slam was Bob Forsch of St. Louis, who hit one against Pittsburgh's Mike Bielecki on Aug. 10, 1986. "I wasn't expecting a grand slam by any means Marlins manager Rene Lachemann said. "Any time we score runs, it's a lift for us The Marlins, who have the ma- jors' lowest batting average at .234, got a 5-for-5 from Terry Pendleton and a 4-for-4 from Alex Arias. Pendleton had three singles, a double and a triple to tie his career high for hits in a game. He ended a 3- for-26 slump and raised his batting average to .246. "I know 1 can swing the bat he said. "Therr's no doubt in my mind. Tonight is an indication of what 1 can do Controversy surrounds Indy500 Villenueve wins title after overcoming two-lap penalty (AP) - The winner had to drive 505 miles to win America's most fa- mous 500-mile race. And not because he was a Canadian getting a bad deal on the exchange rate. "I thought we might need to be paid a little extra joked Barry Green, who owns the car Jacques Villeneuve drove to victory in Sunday's Indy 500. Owner and driver could afford to be charitable about going the extra distance after overcoming a two-lap penalty assessed against them early in the race for passing the pace car. But that's because the same pen- alty, assessed against Scott Goodyear late in the race, enabled Villeneuve to cross the finish line second and still be declared the winner. "A regulation is a regulation he said, flashing a 24-year-old's unaf- fected grin. "They penalized us two laps because we overtook the pace car. There's no reason they would have done that to us and not to someone else Everyone figured the absence of Team Penske and his top-gun drivers would make for a wide-open race. But no one expected chaos like this. Four cars were taken out in a crash before one lap was complete. The lead changed hands 23 times among 10 different drivers, two who surrendered the front in a most re- luctant fashion: They crashed. A to- tal of nine penal- ties were assessed ' in three hours, the auto racing equiva- lent of a Philadelphia Flyers game from two decades ago. "1 think disbelief is probably the best description said Scott Goodyear, the Canadian who steered a Honda on Firestone tires across America's most famous finish line first Sunday - but still lost. Disbelief? "At one point near the end. I saw there were seven laps remaining Villeneuve recalled. "And on the next lap my crew told me there were 10 laps left "And on the next lap my crew told me there were 10 laps left � Jacques Villeneuve Confusion? Instead of names like Al Unser Jr. and Emerson Fittipaldi, the front row was manned by three drivers whose contracts with their teams ex- pire today. Small wonder that Messrs. Scott Brayton, Arie Luyendyk and Goodyear had taken to calling themselves the "Unemployment Line But a chain-reaction crash touched off when veteran Stan Fox veered sharply right between Turns 1 and 2 effec- tively ended the workday for a half- dozen of their competitors. Strange as the early going seemed, the crowd of 400,000 was treated to at least one familiar scene. An Andretti favorite running out of luck and into the pits with a busted car. In this case it was Michael - Mario retired last year - and it came on Lap 77. when he brushed the wall coming out of Turn 4 trying to protect a lead. See INDY page 7 aizs erspective Brian Paiz Assistant Sports Editor Welcome to another glorious summer at ECU where we spend our time in classes instead of some tropical resort thinking about how we are going to differ ourselves in the fall Well, Pirate football is just around the corner and Coach Steve Logan and his troops will see what they are made of during the first five games of the season. On Sept 3, the Pirates will travel to the orange capital of the world, Knoxville, Tennessee. From what I have been hearing, ECU was al- lotted just 4,000 tickets to a sta- dium that holds well over 99,000 people. Come on! I believe some- one needs to make a little phone call to the U.T. athletic depart- ment. Pirate fans will be more than willing to travel to Knoxville to see the game, and I think that just 4,000 tickets isn't going to satisfy the needs of hungry Pirate fans. Hopefully, this trip to the Volunteer state will be a little more pleasant than the one last December How about Kevin Garnett. He's the high school sensation that UNC Tarheel fans are drool- ing over to get their hands on. Garnett recently declared himself eligible for June's NBA draft. HELLO Mr. Garnett! Yes, you are good - very good, in fact, for a high school player. Notice I men- tioned high school player. Have you watched the NBA lately? Garnett does not have the physi- cal presence to play with such players as Hakeem Olajuwon and David Robinson. I believe some- one needs to set Kevin down and have a long talk with him. I rec- ommend Dennis Rodman for the job Looking at the local televi- sion stations lately, I have learned to respect their sports depart- ments. Brian Bailey at WNCT-TV 9, Chris Justice at WCT1-TV 12 and Phil Werz at WITN-7 all do a tremendous job with what they have to work with. The Washing- ton-Greenville-New Bern market is one of the smaller markets in the nation, but these three individu- als continue to conduct their sportscasts in a very professional manner. Four Stars for every- one A big Greenville "thank you" to past Pirate football standout and Cincinnati Bengal Jeff Blake, who flew in for the Michael Jor- dan Celebrity Golf Classic's Me- dia Day on a moment's notice. It seems one of the other celebri- ties could not show, so Pam Crocker, tournament director, gave him a call, and Jeff was on he next plane out of Orlando. Blake is a perfect example of an athlete giving back to his commu- nity.
