(AP) - The state Senate has<lb/>
delayed action on bills that would<lb/>
encourage reciting the pledge of<lb/>
allegiance in public schools and re-<lb/>
quire teaching abstinence until<lb/>
marriage as part of sex education<lb/>
courses.<lb/>
The abstinence bill was sent to<lb/>

(AP) - The federal government<lb/>
sued the owners and rental manag-<lb/>
ers of 13 apartment complexes<lb/>
Monday, accusing them after a sting<lb/>
of discriminating against black rent-<lb/>
ers in West Palm Beach, Fla.<lb/>
Several owners also were ac-<lb/>
cused of refusing to rent to families<lb/>
with children.<lb/>
The Justice Department filed<lb/>
six lawsuits after sending out black<lb/>
and white "testers" to pose as pro-<lb/>
spective tenants and try to rent<lb/>
apartments.<lb/>
In some instances, the blacks<lb/>
were quoted higher prices or told<lb/>
no apartments were available for<lb/>

(AP) - A group of doctors has<lb/>
developed a new set of tests that<lb/>
may predict heart disease and<lb/>
strokes cheapfy and painlessly, and<lb/>
help identify patients who need<lb/>
aggressive therapy, The New York<lb/>
Times reported Tuesday.<lb/>
The new method measures the<lb/>
difference in the blood pressures<lb/>
found in a patient's arms and legs,<lb/>
and uses high-frequency sound to<lb/>
measure narrowing of the carotid<lb/>
arteries, which carry blood to the<lb/>
brain, the Times said.<lb/>
Scientists who developed the<lb/>
new tests say they are a more accu-<lb/>

Lisa Pitman thought Tuesday was<lb/>
going to Ke just another day on her 11-<lb/>
to-1 shift as driver for ECU's purple tran-<lb/>
sit route. Then her afternoon took a twist<lb/>
At noon, three men whom Pitman<lb/>
had never seen before boarded the bus<lb/>
at Mendenhaii Student Center. After she<lb/>
drove her route at least twice, one man<lb/>
got off the bus at a stop on 10th Street<lb/>
She continued her drive which took her<lb/>
to River Bluff Apartments, where the<lb/>
other two men approached her.<lb/>
While Pitman continued to drive,<lb/>
one of the men, Steven Edward Smith,<lb/>
19, of 100 Club Way Dr Apartment 52,<lb/>
Greenway Apartments, reached into her<lb/>
backpack and men her jacket which was<lb/>
hanging on the back of her seat Smith<lb/>
is not an ECU student<lb/>
"He told me want he wanted to do<lb/>
to me sexually and then he grabbed my<lb/>
boob Pitman said. "I was really pissed<lb/>
off<lb/>
Following training procedures<lb/>
which stress that drivers should not con-<lb/>
front unruly passengers, and because it<lb/>
was the end of her shift, Pitman took<lb/>
the bus back to Mendenhaii, where she<lb/>
immediately left the bus.<lb/>
"I told the next driver what had<lb/>
happened about my stuff, but didn't fully<lb/>
tell him the whole story because I was<lb/>
afraid of what he might do to them. The<lb/>
male drivers are pretty protective of us<lb/>
female drivers she said.<lb/>
Ryland Walters, transit manager,<lb/>
said Smith, along with Shawn Douglas<lb/>
James, 21, also a non-student of 100<lb/>
Tobacco Rd Apartment E4, continued<lb/>
on the route before getting on the gold<lb/>
bus. On that route, the driver became<lb/>
aware of the two "pestering other pas-<lb/>
sengers and bragging about killing a cop<lb/>
in Texas Walters said. At that time, the<lb/>
driver notified another driver of the inci-<lb/>
dents and Walters was called on the ra-<lb/>
dio. At the same time, the two men left<lb/>
the gold route and got on the purple<lb/>
bus again.<lb/>
"I called the driver of the purple<lb/>
bus to make him aware of the situation<lb/>
and told him to take his time on the<lb/>
route Walters said. "I then called ECU<lb/>
Police) and told them what was going<lb/>
on<lb/>
After a few stalls on the route, the<lb/>
driver pulled up to the Mendenhaii stop<lb/>
where Walters, Pitman and the ECU<lb/>
Police were waiting.<lb/>
"It was all taken care of in five min-<lb/>
utes and we are very happy with that"<lb/>

part series.<lb/>
The possibilities for ECU'S fiber<lb/>
optic future are almost limitless.<lb/>
A new student database and a<lb/>
10,000 yne telephone switching system<lb/>
have been added to the network. Plans<lb/>
for this year include<lb/>
the installation of<lb/>
Kiosk (automated in-<lb/>
formation) machines<lb/>
across campus and<lb/>
interactive video ca-<lb/>
pabilities within the<lb/>
classroom.<lb/>
Kiosk machines<lb/>
are already on order,<lb/>
and will begin to ap-<lb/>
pear around campus<lb/>
this fall The first pos-<lb/>
sible sites are<lb/>
Mendenhaii, The Stu-<lb/>
dent Stores, General<lb/>
Classroom Building,<lb/>
Todd Dining Hall,<lb/>
Brewster or possibly<lb/>
the Environmental<lb/>
Sciences Building.<lb/>
According to Blake<lb/>
Price, director of<lb/>
computing and infor-<lb/>
mation services, the<lb/>
machines will have<lb/>
touch screens and<lb/>
provide campus<lb/>
maps and general information.<lb/>
"We'll put in information like course<lb/>
catalogs, just general questions people<lb/>
would normally be going to somebody's<lb/>
office and asking Price said.<lb/>
He hopes to link the machines with<lb/>
the new student database by next spring.<lb/>
"If you want to go to a kiosk and<lb/>
run your ID card through that kiosk, or<lb/>
key in information you could print your<lb/>
schedule, you could look at your student<lb/>
account you could look at your finan-<lb/>
cial aid status, you could check your<lb/>
grades said Rose Mary Stelma, direc-<lb/>
This model is an example<lb/>
of the Kiosk machines that<lb/>
will soon be found in<lb/>
various campus buildings.<lb/>
ministrative Computing Committee.<lb/>
"If you wanted to call in from home<lb/>
or from your apartment or residence hall,<lb/>
you could call into a self service voice<lb/>
response number  and perhaps you<lb/>
could register for classes that way per-<lb/>
haps you could get information in addi-<lb/>
tion to the traditional methods of call-<lb/>
ing in on the phone, coming into the<lb/>
office or going to your advisor to regis-<lb/>
ter<lb/>
Price said the machines will be in-<lb/>
stalled inside build-<lb/>
ings because they<lb/>
are weather sensi-<lb/>
tive, and he eventu-<lb/>
ally hopes to give<lb/>
students access to<lb/>
the machines<lb/>
through student<lb/>
computer labs<lb/>
across campus.<lb/>
"They offer so<lb/>
many more opportu-<lb/>
nities, as we see<lb/>
more budget and<lb/>
personnel cuts, this<lb/>
will allow students<lb/>
to do a lot of things<lb/>
on their own rather<lb/>
than taking up staff<lb/>
time Price said.<lb/>
He said Joyner<lb/>
Library also plans to<lb/>
install Kiosk ma-<lb/>
chines.<lb/>
"The library<lb/>
has funds of their<lb/>
own and they're go-<lb/>
ing to put several<lb/>
Price said.<lb/>
The Kiosk machines themselves cost<lb/>
$60,000 each, with software costing ap-<lb/>
proximately $20,000 more. The machines<lb/>
will access information through the fi-<lb/>
ber optic network.<lb/>
"I think we're going to be the first<lb/>
North Carolina state university to use<lb/>
this system Price said. "They are ADA<lb/>
compliant and capable of enlarged<lb/>
screens for the visually impaired<lb/>

Pay change breaks students<lb/>
Wendy Rountree<lb/>
Assistant News Editor<lb/>
Some university employed students<lb/>
are finding themselves low on cash due<lb/>
to a university payroll system change,<lb/>
now paying students at the end of the<lb/>
month.<lb/>
Dan Bishop, university comptroller,<lb/>
said ECU had its first automated payroll<lb/>
system installed in 1987. This system's<lb/>
software was originally supposed to be<lb/>
used by a private manufacturing com-<lb/>
pany - not a state university. As a re-<lb/>
sult the syste; n had to be modified. These<lb/>
modifications made it difficult to acquire<lb/>
financial information the state requires<lb/>
of universities such as reports on depart-<lb/>
mental faculty numbers and salaries.<lb/>
"It was virtually impossible for any<lb/>
of the management to get any reports<lb/>
out of that system Bishop said.<lb/>
Bishop also said the university ba-<lb/>
sically needed to update the system by<lb/>
changing from the old batch mode to a<lb/>
new on-line mode system, which is com-<lb/>
patible to the campus wide fiber optics<lb/>
system.<lb/>
Bishop said a committee found a<lb/>
new "user friendly" system on IBM that<lb/>
allows the university to process finan-<lb/>
cial records to meet state requirements.<lb/>
"It was implemented April third of<lb/>
1995 Bishop said.<lb/>
On this date, all faculty and staff<lb/>
payrolls were converted to the new sys-<lb/>
tem but the committee decided to wait<lb/>
before it converted student payroll.<lb/>
Payroll supervisor, Nora Case, said<lb/>
the university chose to change the sys-<lb/>
tem in the summer because fewer stu-<lb/>
dents are employed.<lb/>
'Administra-<lb/>
tion decided to<lb/>
make the transition<lb/>
at this time because<lb/>
we have fewer stu-<lb/>
dent employees<lb/>
Case said.<lb/>
Bishop said<lb/>
the student payroll<lb/>
will change over to<lb/>
the new system this<lb/>
July 1 because that<lb/>
is the date the old<lb/>
system will be ter-<lb/>
minated.<lb/>
"We knew we<lb/>
had to go ahead<lb/>
and convert the stu-<lb/>
dents to the new system because the old<lb/>
system that we had been using was vir-<lb/>
tually being done away with July 1<lb/>
Bishop said. "Back last fail, we formed a<lb/>
task committee on student input to de-<lb/>
cide what we needed to do. It was con-<lb/>
sistent that we still needed to maintain<lb/>
student payments on a monthly basis<lb/>
Bishop said the committee, includ-<lb/>
ing student representatives and represen-<lb/>
tatives from the areas each vice chancel-<lb/>
lor is responsible for, realized that in the<lb/>
last three or four years, students have<lb/>
been paid at the end of June and then<lb/>
not paid anymore until August 15. This<lb/>
left a six week gap where the students<lb/>
had to wait for their paycheck. As a re-<lb/>
?????? suit, they decided<lb/>
to make that six<lb/>
week gap between<lb/>
May 15 and June<lb/>
30, instead to ac-<lb/>
commodate the<lb/>
transition period.<lb/>
"Our people<lb/>
said historically we<lb/>
have had a six<lb/>
week lag, so we'll<lb/>
just move it up one<lb/>
month Bishop<lb/>
said. "This was no<lb/>
different from what<lb/>
we historically had<lb/>
done with the ex-<lb/>
ception of moving<lb/>
it back a month. With that thought, we<lb/>
thought that would be all right if we<lb/>
notify everybody<lb/>
There was a lapse in communica-<lb/>
tion between administrators, university<lb/>
and student employees.<lb/>

The North Carolina Literary<lb/>
Review's editor, Alex Albright, will<lb/>
stay for another year before stepping<lb/>
down after six years with the publica-<lb/>
tion.<lb/>
The journal has been at ECU<lb/>
since Albright became its first editor.<lb/>
Albright expressed displeasure<lb/>
with an article that appeared in The<lb/>
Daily Reflector on May 9. Marion<lb/>
Blackburn reported that Albright<lb/>
would be stepping down because of,<lb/>
"uncertain funding, demanding hours<lb/>
and a consuming commitment<lb/>
The article made it appear that<lb/>
the editor's resignation could cause<lb/>
the literary journal to leave ECU and<lb/>
that he is at odds with the university<lb/>
because of a iack of support and re-<lb/>
sources. According to Albright, this<lb/>
is far from the truth.<lb/>
"I never cited money as a reason<lb/>
for leaving said Albright "Also there<lb/>
has never been a lack of support from<lb/>
the university. Dr. Keats Sparrow<lb/>
(dean of the College of Arts and Sci-<lb/>
ences and co-founder of the magazine)<lb/>
has been tireless in his support<lb/>
Albright maintains the magazine<lb/>
will not leave ECU until a successor<lb/>
is named in the spring of 1996.<lb/>
Albright is already working to resur-<lb/>
rect an endowment which may have<lb/>
been lost due to the controversy<lb/>
caused by the article. The magazine<lb/>
costs about $25,000 per issue. Fund-<lb/>
ing is provided through private gifts,<lb/>
advertisements, subscriptions and<lb/>
appropriations from the North Caro-<lb/>
lina Literary and Historical Associa-<lb/>
tion.<lb/>
Albright appreciates ECU's School<lb/>
of Art for their support and unique<lb/>
ability to convey designs that reflect<lb/>
the content of the magazine. Most of<lb/>
the literary review's national awards<lb/>
have been in the field of design.<lb/>
Albright said he has enjoyed be-<lb/>
ing the editor but "never, at any point<lb/>
wanted to do this for the rest of my<lb/>
life<lb/>
He plans to work with the maga-<lb/>
zine for another year, putting out an<lb/>
issue in June and another in the spring<lb/>
before stepping down. Albright then<lb/>
plans to complete four books he has<lb/>
researched extensively.<lb/>

PAY<lb/>
from page 1<lb/>
nounced until the April schedule was sent<lb/>
out in mid-March Bishop said. "What-<lb/>
ever the reasons were, the word did not<lb/>
get to everybody that there would be that<lb/>
six week wait"<lb/>
At this time, the payroll schedule<lb/>
went to all campus locations that em-<lb/>
ploy students. Case said each vice chan-<lb/>
cellor was in charge of notifying the de-<lb/>
partments who were supposed to tell<lb/>
their employees.<lb/>
"Then when we sent it out in mid-<lb/>
April for the May schedule, it was still<lb/>
not communicated until some time in<lb/>
the latter part of May Bishop said.<lb/>
Scott Swink, a student library as-<lb/>
sistant, said students should have been<lb/>
informed of the change before mid-April<lb/>
or mid-March.<lb/>
"According to the national Labor<lb/>
Relations Act they have to let us know<lb/>
six months in advance Swink said "If<lb/>
they didn't make the decision in Decem-<lb/>
ber, then they can't go through with the<lb/>
decision, not legally. They need to con-<lb/>
sider what they are supposed to do le-<lb/>
gally before they start making decisions<lb/>
that affect other people negatively<lb/>
Swink said students working at the<lb/>
library were recently notified of the<lb/>
change.<lb/>
"For everybody here at the library,<lb/>
we didn't know anything about this un-<lb/>
til 28 days in advance Swink said.<lb/>
Swink said that during the May 15<lb/>
to June 30 wait the university has tried<lb/>
to help student cash problems by having<lb/>
the financial aid office offer loans cover-<lb/>
ing two-thirds of the student's paycheck.<lb/>
"The solutions that they tried to<lb/>
make with financial aid, the emergency<lb/>
fund, is not going to do anything but<lb/>
postpone the problem until next month<lb/>
Swink said. "The money we get from fi-<lb/>
nancial aid right now, we are going to<lb/>
have to pay back at the end of June when<lb/>
we get our paycheck<lb/>
Swink said the university should<lb/>
have made the transition while keeping<lb/>
the same payment dates it had last year.<lb/>
"At the end of the fiscal year they<lb/>
come up with some solution where the<lb/>
students get paid differently Swink said.<lb/>
"Last year, we got paid on the 15th of<lb/>
June and the 30th of June, and that's<lb/>
the way they should have done it this<lb/>
year.<lb/>
Swink said the university should<lb/>
have thought of how the change would<lb/>
affect students, and made sure they were<lb/>
notified well in advance.<lb/>
"The problem is that since we are<lb/>
students mom and dad can't back us up<lb/>
at the time Swink said. "Some people<lb/>
don't have moms and dads. Some people<lb/>
don't have moms and dads who can do<lb/>
it and some people have moms and dads<lb/>
who won't do it Every student is in a<lb/>
bind by this, not just students at the li-<lb/>
brary, but the students all over campus<lb/>
that work for the university<lb/>
Bishop said he understands stu-<lb/>
dents are frustrated because they were<lb/>
not told about the payroll change and<lb/>
could not prepare for it<lb/>
"Anybody would be upset if they saw<lb/>
that change and they didn't know about<lb/>
it" Bishop said. "All of us can accept<lb/>
changes if we know about it but they did<lb/>
not know about it So, when that was<lb/>
brought to our attention last week, we<lb/>
looked at it from a personal aspect and<lb/>
realized that it was not fair to students<lb/>
who were not informed<lb/>
The university set up a system where<lb/>
students would have two five-week pay-<lb/>
ment periods instead of a four and six<lb/>
week payment period. The two five- week<lb/>
periods are from May 15 to June 23, and<lb/>
from June 23 to July 30. After July 30,<lb/>
students will receive their paychecks at<lb/>
the end of the month<lb/>
"A lot of people aren't responsive to<lb/>
change Bishop said. "I'm not respon-<lb/>
sive to change unless it does a better<lb/>
job. I am firmly committed and believe<lb/>
100 percent that this change will be bet-<lb/>
ter for everybody. It's not a negative<lb/>
thing. I feel like it's a positive attribute<lb/>
to East Carolina<lb/>
Swink said he has no problem with<lb/>
the change to the new payroll system,<lb/>
but does have one with its transition.<lb/>
"I think it's a pretty good idea to<lb/>
have it at the end of the month because<lb/>
most of your bills are paid at the begin-<lb/>
ning of the month Swink said The<lb/>
problem is the transition, if they<lb/>
smoothed over the transition of that<lb/>
decision where it's convenient for every-<lb/>
body and it's not negative for anybody<lb/>
that would be great<lb/>
INTERACTIVE<lb/>
tive video should be in classrooms within<lb/>
a next few years.<lb/>
Associate Director of computing<lb/>
and information systems Thomas Lamb<lb/>
said his job is to make sure all of the<lb/>
different types of software and hardware<lb/>
the fiber optics network uses are com-<lb/>
patible.<lb/>
"The groundwork for interactive<lb/>
video will be there when we're done wir-<lb/>
ing the buildings with fiber optics in<lb/>
August" Lamb said. "What has to hap-<lb/>
pen then is some actual outfitting of the<lb/>
rooms. We selected 12 buildings that<lb/>
have interactive capability<lb/>
ECU students and faculty will even-<lb/>
tually be able to communicate around<lb/>
the world not only with words, but also<lb/>
with pictures.<lb/>
Interactive capabilities will soon be<lb/>
within reach of students, but what about<lb/>
an easier registration process? A com-<lb/>
mittee is currently being formed to ex-<lb/>
amine possible alternatives for future reg-<lb/>
istration procedures.<lb/>
Telecommunications Director Jim<lb/>
Crain said the new phone system will<lb/>
be in operation on Monday, June 23.<lb/>
and the entire campus should be op-<lb/>
erational by this fall. The new tele-<lb/>
phone system will povide several ser-<lb/>
vices to campus including voice-mail and<lb/>
four digit dialing between campus and<lb/>
the residence halls.<lb/>
Funding for the fiber optic network<lb/>
and the new technologies it carries have<lb/>
come from a variety of sources said Vice<lb/>
Chancellor for Business Affairs Richard<lb/>
Brown. He said the total cost of the fi-<lb/>
ber optic project is around $13.1 mil-<lb/>
lion. The School of Medicine is also in-<lb/>
stalling a network at a cost of $1.5 mil-<lb/>
lion.<lb/>
"We have received over the last sev-<lb/>
eral years, 2.6 million in state funds<lb/>
Brown said. He said the funds are a com-<lb/>
bination of state funds allocated for the<lb/>
project and re-allocation of other funds.<lb/>
The university has sold bonds for<lb/>
$10.9 million, and the telephone switch-<lb/>
ing system will bring in revenues in ex-<lb/>
cess of $800,000 annually.<lb/>
"We have become the telephone<lb/>
company Brown said. ECU is an en-<lb/>
tity in itself now and no longer requires<lb/>
from page 1<lb/>
services from Carolina Telephone.<lb/>
Student computing and technol-<lb/>
ogy fees are also footing the bill. A $5<lb/>
increase this year and a proposed $5<lb/>
increase for next year will provide<lb/>
$170,000 annually.<lb/>
"By turning off the UNISYS the<lb/>
previous student database July 1, we<lb/>
will save in the range of $750,000 per<lb/>
year Brown said.<lb/>
"We may be two or three months<lb/>
behind what we hoped, but the magni-<lb/>
tude of this project is enormous<lb/>

The fiber<lb/>
optics system<lb/>
is almost in<lb/>
place so take<lb/>
advantage of<lb/>
what your<lb/>
institution has<lb/>
provided<lb/>
you. Hop on<lb/>
the Internet<lb/>
and start<lb/>
surfing.<lb/>
It's in your phone and on your desk - it's every-<lb/>
where, but don't be afraid.<lb/>
The new fiberoptic network installed at ECU means<lb/>
a world of opportunity for students and faculty alike.<lb/>
ECU has spent millions of dollars to provide inter-<lb/>
active technology to students so the least you can do<lb/>
is take advantage of it while you're still paying for it.<lb/>
Granted, finding someone to teach you how all this<lb/>
new technology works may not be the easiest task;<lb/>
the university should offer some how-to-use classes,<lb/>
but the stuff is so new, office assistants and adminis-<lb/>
trators are having a tough time learning it themselves.<lb/>
America's information superhighway is quickly be-<lb/>
coming reality so TEC's message to you is "Don't be<lb/>
left behind We all hear about it and wonder, "what<lb/>
does it mean to me?" The answer is: Everything.<lb/>
The Internet already allows us to make new friends,<lb/>
search for jobs or find out whatever we want to know<lb/>
on just about anything at any time. The new phone<lb/>
system is making answering machines a thing of the<lb/>
past for those living in residence halls, and registra-<lb/>
tion should become a lot easier in years to come.<lb/>
Kiosk machines will eventually allow you to access<lb/>
your grades and financial aid status, and finding your<lb/>
way around campus or checking dining hall menus<lb/>
couldn't be easier. You may say, "So what? We can<lb/>
live without this new hi-tech wave of the future stuff<lb/>
Not true.<lb/>
High school graduates are already computer liter-<lb/>
ate and 10 years from now you could be ordering pizza<lb/>
from your television set. The point is, this new tech-<lb/>
nology is happening now so learn how to use it while<lb/>
you can.<lb/>
You never know, fiber optics 1000 could be the<lb/>
final replacement for the class some of us knew as<lb/>
library science.<lb/>
Eventually, we'll all have to put our clothes on to<lb/>
answer the phone and blind dates through the Internet<lb/>
will be obsolete. We're not saying go out and spend<lb/>
three grand on a new computer, but you should be<lb/>
aware of the capabilities our campus has to access the<lb/>
entire world. Yes, it's scary to think ECU students can<lb/>
communicate across the world through their finger-<lb/>
tips, but we know you can handle it.<lb/>

Summer sc<lb/>
Five weeks<lb/>
I can't decide whether 1 like<lb/>
summer school or not. This is my<lb/>
first foray into the world of fast-for-<lb/>
ward lectures, weekly tests and one-<lb/>
chance-only, do-or-die academics. On<lb/>
the surface, there doesn't seem to<lb/>
be a lot to like about the whole idea<lb/>
of summer school, but if you look a<lb/>
little deeper - it only lasts five<lb/>
weeks! If you can eliminate all so-<lb/>
cial activities, eating and sleeping<lb/>
for five weeks, you can accomplish<lb/>
in five weeks what will take lesser<lb/>
people 15 weeks! Whether or not it<lb/>
is worth the sacrifices is something<lb/>
that every individual must deter-<lb/>
mine for themselves.<lb/>
These are the questions you<lb/>
should answer before you commit<lb/>
yourself to summer classes:<lb/>
1) Which is more important to<lb/>
me; keeping my boyfriendgirl-<lb/>
friend, friends and family or gradu-<lb/>
ating a semester earlier?<lb/>
2) Do I really need to eat? Could<lb/>
I get by on tepid water from the wa-<lb/>
ter fountains and Skittles from the<lb/>
vending machine?<lb/>
3) How little sleep could 1 con-<lb/>
Andi Powell Phillips<lb/>
Opinion Writer<lb/>
 it's too late to<lb/>
turn back now.<lb/>
So, buckle-down,<lb/>
put your nose to<lb/>
the grindstone <lb/>
tinue to function on? Six hours?<lb/>
Three? Do I really need to sleep?<lb/>
4) Can I actually attend every<lb/>
class meeting, five days a week, for<lb/>
five weeks? Has that ever been done<lb/>
before?<lb/>
Once you've answered these<lb/>
questions, you are ready to either<lb/>
start summer school or run scream-<lb/>
ing home to your parents' house<lb/>
where you'll lie by the pool all day<lb/>
baking the few brain cells you had<lb/>
that kept you from going to summer<lb/>
school. Of course, since we're al-<lb/>
ready more than half way through<lb/>
the first summer session, I guess I<lb/>
can assume that, if you are reading<lb/>
this, you are already forehead-deep<lb/>
in summer classes. Whether or not<lb/>
you're here because you carefully<lb/>
weighed the pros and cons, asked<lb/>
yourself the four important ques-<lb/>
tions above and decided you had the<lb/>
intestinal fortitude it would take to<lb/>
forsake your life for the sake of six<lb/>
or nine credit hours, or because (like<lb/>
me) you just dove-in headfirst with-<lb/>
out stopping to think why your<lb/>
friend who took summer classes last<lb/>
year has never been the same, I can<lb/>
only wonder.<lb/>
At any rate, it's too late to turn<lb/>
back now. So, buckle-down, put your<lb/>
nose to the grindstone and give it<lb/>
the old college try. Just think, it won't<lb/>
be long now until we'll have one<lb/>
whole entire day of peaceful, restful<lb/>
vacation before the next summer ses-<lb/>
sion starts. Does anyone know when<lb/>
the vending machine guy is coming<lb/>
to restock the Skittles?<lb/>
Freedom of the Press:<lb/>
How far can it go?<lb/>
Campus life a tough sale<lb/>
Many politicians want us to ste-<lb/>
reotype bureaucrats as dull and un-<lb/>
imaginative. They often build their<lb/>
political careers bashing the bureau-<lb/>
cracy and those who work in it How-<lb/>
ever, there are many bureaucrats who<lb/>
defy this definition.<lb/>
We only have to look as far as<lb/>
our own university to see a sterling<lb/>
example of creativity in the bureau-<lb/>
cracy. Housing Services recently<lb/>
smashed the stereotype of rigid un-<lb/>
imaginative government workers.<lb/>
Their recent "Be a Winner" ad cam-<lb/>
paign shows what a stimulated imagi-<lb/>
nation can accomplish. This advertis-<lb/>
ing campaign depicted students living<lb/>
on campus as winners and others as<lb/>
losers.<lb/>
The crowning touch of the cam-<lb/>
paign was a newspaper ad featuring a<lb/>
student complaining of being a loser<lb/>
because he moved off campus. This<lb/>
work is the fruit of an extremely ac-<lb/>
tive imagination. It takes creativity to<lb/>
consider campus dwellers winners,<lb/>
because they usually lose financially.<lb/>
Living on campus usualty means pay-<lb/>
ing mou for less.<lb/>
Housing Services is playing well<lb/>
with the cards they were dealt They<lb/>
have the tough job of convincing stu-<lb/>
dents to live on campus. It is not nec-<lb/>
essarily their fault living on campus<lb/>
is such a bad deal. Parking Services,<lb/>
the ECU Administration, Dining Ser-<lb/>
vices and a variety of other agencies<lb/>
provide plenty of reasons to move off<lb/>
campus.<lb/>
The cost of telephone service is<lb/>
a prime example. Several years ago,<lb/>
students could choose their own long<lb/>
distance carrier in the dorms. That<lb/>
was before a bureaucrat in Raleigh<lb/>
Thomas Blue<lb/>
Opinion Columnist<lb/>
It's a hard sale to<lb/>
convince students<lb/>
that walking one<lb/>
and a half miles<lb/>
to eat makes<lb/>
them a winner<lb/>
realized the state could make money<lb/>
on students' long distance calls. The<lb/>
UNC System now awards a contract<lb/>
for all long distance calls to the car-<lb/>
rier that gives the university the larg-<lb/>
est cut - not who gives the consumer<lb/>
the best deal. Thomas Lamb, the As-<lb/>
sociate Director of Communications<lb/>
estimated that ECU made $40,000 per<lb/>
month from dorm telephone calls in<lb/>
1994.<lb/>
The appetite of Dining Services<lb/>
along with those in the Spilman Build-<lb/>
ing adds the largest financial burden<lb/>
on dormitory students. It's called Todd<lb/>
Dining Hall. This appetite for growth<lb/>
led them to raise food costs dramati-<lb/>
cally to pay for this new facility. This<lb/>
is why a hotdog at the Wright Place<lb/>
costs three times as much as a hotdog<lb/>
at other places. The push for manda-<lb/>
tory meal plans stems directly from<lb/>
the need to pay for the Todd Dining<lb/>
Palace.<lb/>
It's a hard sale to convince stu-<lb/>
dents that walking one and a half<lb/>
miles to eat at Todd Dining Hall makes<lb/>
them a winner in summer school. The<lb/>
university requires students living in<lb/>
Cotten, Fleming, and Jarvis to buy<lb/>
meal plans at Todd Dining Hall this<lb/>
summer. Mendenhall is closed, so they<lb/>
have to hike to eat. Students lose in<lb/>
this deal.<lb/>
Parking Services also makes<lb/>
Housing Director Manny Amaro's job<lb/>
difficult. Winners park their cars con-<lb/>
veniently at their apartment or house.<lb/>
A student loses when they cannot find<lb/>
a place to park or have to park in a<lb/>
distant freshman parking lot. How-<lb/>
ever, we cannot justifiably blame Park-<lb/>
ing Services either, because the park-<lb/>
ing problem emanates from the sec-<lb/>
ond floor of the Spilman Building.<lb/>
Housing also has overhead prob-<lb/>
lems that apartment owners do not.<lb/>
Students living off campus do not<lb/>
have to pay the costs of dorm coordi-<lb/>
nators, resident assistants, custodians,<lb/>
and a host of other employees. These<lb/>
personnel costs drive up the price of<lb/>
a campus dorm room significantly.<lb/>
It takes an active imagination to<lb/>
rent expensive, predominantly<lb/>
unairconditioned rooms with little<lb/>
parking to someone. Mandatory hall<lb/>
meetings, bug problems and occa-<lb/>
sional false fire alarms make the sales<lb/>
job for Housing more difficult. It<lb/>
doesn't help to figure in drunks,<lb/>
noise and a host of other problems.<lb/>
It takes an exceptional sales pitch to<lb/>
sell this bag of goods to students in<lb/>
the dorms.<lb/>
My hat is off to the people at<lb/>
Housing Services. They have a diffi-<lb/>
cult job renting dormitory rooms at<lb/>
ECU. It's unfortunate the administra-<lb/>
tion doesn't make it easier by improv-<lb/>
ing dorm life.<lb/>
Freedom of the press. What does<lb/>
it mean? It means we can print any-<lb/>
thing we want to. We can go into your<lb/>
bars and bedrooms and catch you<lb/>
doing the most perverse things soci-<lb/>
ety can imagine and put it on page<lb/>
one. Be afraid  be very afraid, be-<lb/>
cause we are in your garbage cans,<lb/>
talking to your fourth grade teachers<lb/>
and did I mention misquoting you. I<lb/>
love that part best<lb/>
If turning a word or phrase in just<lb/>
such a way to cause your total ruin-<lb/>
ation weren't enough, we can mis-<lb/>
quote you. Even if we get the words<lb/>
right we can take it out of cor text<lb/>
Did you say "President Clinton<lb/>
better watch his step because it is<lb/>
mighty dangerous in North Carolina?"<lb/>
What exactly did you mean by that<lb/>
' Senator?<lb/>
Were you talking about the 40<lb/>
days of rain the state is experiencing<lb/>
or about a possible assassination at-<lb/>
tempt? No comment! Well that means<lb/>
denial, and denial means guilt<lb/>
Oh no! Please don't carry the<lb/>
newspaper to court, senator! Can't,<lb/>
because we have you dead to rights<lb/>
with the first ammendment<lb/>
Even if cows learn to fly and we<lb/>
get caught who has the last word?<lb/>
Let me repeat that who has the last<lb/>
word? If we even decide to print a re-<lb/>
traction, we can bury it so far in the<lb/>
paper it is easier to find the holy grail.<lb/>
We are all powerful. With words<lb/>
we can topple presidents, start wars,<lb/>
create and destroy worlds. We are all<lb/>
knowing. We are invincible. God took<lb/>
six days to create the world. With a<lb/>
big headline, we can destroy it in six<lb/>
seconds.<lb/>
As a member of the press, I can<lb/>
J. Miles Layton<lb/>
Opinion Columnist<lb/>
Without the truth<lb/>
no story is<lb/>
possible.<lb/>
say all of the above is an illusion held<lb/>
by people who believe in witches,<lb/>
ghosts and goblins. Someone once<lb/>
said that with great power comes great<lb/>
responsibilty. It is an awesome weight<lb/>
a reporter, his editor and their news-<lb/>
paper must bear each time a story<lb/>
goes in the paper.<lb/>
This responsibilty is not taken<lb/>
lightly by anyone at this paper. Truth<lb/>
is more than a word to me or any other<lb/>
reporter. Without the truth no story<lb/>
is possible.<lb/>
Truth is defined by accuracy.<lb/>
With each story, I check, double and<lb/>
triple check my facts. My editors ques-<lb/>
tion me on every detail.<lb/>
Bad quotes are sacrilege. I have<lb/>
been grossly misquoted in the past<lb/>
and know how it feels. That feeling<lb/>
translates into making damn sure<lb/>
each person is on or off the record.<lb/>
That feeling is a harsh taskmaster dic-<lb/>
tating each quote to be accurate and<lb/>
in context.<lb/>
Each word is carefully sifted<lb/>
through by my editors for any hint of<lb/>
bias. Neither I, nor any reporter, is<lb/>
perfect because we are human. Al-<lb/>
though total objectivity is a powerful<lb/>
creed, I do not always hit the mark.<lb/>
My editors sift through fragments of<lb/>
words searching for the clearest most<lb/>
concise way of saying something with-<lb/>
out any hint of bias.<lb/>
This quest for objective truth is<lb/>
the basis society trusts us on. With-<lb/>
out this hard won trust nothing is<lb/>
possible. Nothing can get printed <lb/>
information lies stagnant There is no<lb/>
free exchange of ideas.<lb/>
This trust gives us an important<lb/>
role in society. In the name of truth<lb/>
we are given a huge responsiblity to<lb/>
do more than watch, but to accurately<lb/>
and fairly report the facts. It was not<lb/>
a whim when the press took down<lb/>
Richard Nixon. Woodward and<lb/>
Bernstein did not get run off the road<lb/>
by the presidential limo and decide<lb/>
to destroy Nixon. Using the freedom<lb/>
granted by the Bill of Rights, they<lb/>
found a president guiltier than<lb/>
televangelist Jim Baker counting<lb/>
money on Easter sunday.<lb/>
We are not beyond reproach.<lb/>
Anybody who has seen OJ. Simpson's<lb/>
great great aunt Shaquita twice re-<lb/>
moved on Current Affair or Hard Copy<lb/>
can slap anyone pretentious or self<lb/>
righteous reporter. I admit we are not<lb/>
all perfect but look in the mirror.<lb/>
Aside from your ugly face, are you<lb/>
without fault?<lb/>
The press's role is the corner-<lb/>
stone of democracy. Without it, the<lb/>
witches, ghosts and goblins live again.<lb/>
Nixon goes onto four more terms as<lb/>
president. Illegal wiretapping goes<lb/>
undiscovered. And Big Brother and<lb/>
his thought police run rampant.<lb/>

Home Grown<lb/>
Music Festival is<lb/>
a summertime hit<lb/>
Brandon Waddell<lb/>
Assistant Lifestyle Editor<lb/>
One impossible task asked of con-<lb/>
cert goers this weekend was that of<lb/>
being in two places at once. Both<lb/>
Peasant's Cafe and the Attic boasted the<lb/>
finest independent bands this area has<lb/>
to offer. The choice was difficult:<lb/>
Peasant's or the Attic, the Attic or<lb/>
Peasant's? Many folks didn't choose. In-<lb/>
stead, they were seen running back and<lb/>
forth tryirg to see all the musical acts<lb/>
the Home Grown Music Network has<lb/>
to offer.<lb/>
The is the first year Home Grown<lb/>
coordinators Lee Crumpton and Paul<lb/>
Edwards have organized the Home<lb/>
Grown Music Festival. A concern that<lb/>
must have crossed their minds was hav-<lb/>
ing such an event in Greenville, in the<lb/>
summer. Will enough people be in town<lb/>
to come out to the event to make it<lb/>
worthwhile? Well, judging from crowd<lb/>
size and enthusiasm each night the fes-<lb/>
tival was certainly a summertime suc-<lb/>
cess.<lb/>
Just after 11 p.m. on Friday night<lb/>
Home Grown fans entered the Attic<lb/>
from the rain-soaked Creenville night<lb/>
to check out Chapel Hill's Knocked<lb/>
Down Smilin Over the past few years,<lb/>
this funky quartet has built a small but<lb/>
solid local following playing small gigs<lb/>
and fraternity band parties.<lb/>
Knocked Down Smilin' began fairly<lb/>
slow, but about a half-hour into the set<lb/>
the enthusiastic musicians put their<lb/>
pedal to the metal as fellow Home<lb/>
Growners Purple Schoolbus lent front-<lb/>
row moral support This band played<lb/>
an even mix of their older songs with<lb/>
ones of their newest release to motivate<lb/>
the small introverted crowd to a jubi-<lb/>
lant horde as the floor in front of the<lb/>
stage became somewhat occupied. Fans<lb/>
were certainly warm as Knocked Down<lb/>
finished their set with two originals,<lb/>
"Silent Meat" and "Bent"<lb/>
As the crowd became virtually un-<lb/>
ruly with the clos- <lb/>
ing songs of<lb/>
Knocked Down<lb/>
Smilin the cur-<lb/>
tain closed. Stage<lb/>
hands began tak-<lb/>
ing apart drum<lb/>
kits and unwiring<lb/>
guitars. From<lb/>
stage right solo-<lb/>
ist Keller Williams walked to<lb/>
centerstage. Keller, his trusty 12-string<lb/>
and a microphone is all it took to ap-<lb/>
pease the ugly mob in front of the stage.<lb/>
Keller Williams is one of the only<lb/>
true "one-man bands" left. Simulta-<lb/>
neously playing rhythm and lead gui-<lb/>
tar, the barefooted Virginian had the<lb/>
crowd acoustically awestruck.<lb/>
Previously a guitarist in the All<lb/>
Natural Band, the longhaired guitar vir-<lb/>
tuoso soothed the otherwise aggressive<lb/>
crowd with songs from his debut CD<lb/>
release, Freek. Williams played onstage<lb/>
to a crowd of musicians and fans alike.<lb/>
The musicians crowded the stage in<lb/>
hopes of perhaps figuring out the corn-<lb/>

one of the only<lb/>
true "one-man<lb/>
bands" left.<lb/>
?,????  .<lb/>
plex guitar chords the gifted soloist per-<lb/>

With improved weather, atten-<lb/>
dance picked up early Saturday night<lb/>
Between Keller Williams' and Moon<lb/>
Boot Lover's set Peasant's fought tech-<lb/>
nical soundboard difficulties as the At-<lb/>
tic was jumping with 200-plus Home<lb/>
Grown Festivalers.<lb/>
The Attic's crowd was treated to a<lb/>
seven-man jam session on the front<lb/>
stage courtesy of Purple Schoolbus.<lb/>
This band filled the stage with their<lb/>
upbeat musical presence as fans on the<lb/>
floor were twirling about apparently in<lb/>
sine with Schoolbus'<lb/>
musical vibe.<lb/>
Overall, the<lb/>
Home Grown Music<lb/>
Festival was cer-<lb/>
tainly a success. If<lb/>
festival organizers<lb/>
could have planned<lb/>
the event while<lb/>
regular academic se-<lb/>
mesters were still in session, I'm sure<lb/>
they would have. But since this was the<lb/>
only time they could schedule all these<lb/>
bands to play at once, they had to settle<lb/>
for a summertime festival.<lb/>
During the fall or spring, the<lb/>
festival's crowd would have burst at the<lb/>
seams with record attendance; but still,<lb/>
the Festival's attendance was not bad<lb/>
considering it is summertime and rain<lb/>
kept more people at home than would<lb/>
an infectious disease. Hats off to the<lb/>
Attic and Peasant's for a job well done.<lb/>
It took a lot of planning and work to<lb/>
get such an event off the ground, but<lb/>
hopefully those involved feel their work<lb/>
did not go unrecognized.<lb/>
Moshing is fun!<lb/>

of-drag Tim Curry, who is searching for<lb/>
King Solomon's mines, and a British-<lb/>
accented Ernie Hudson, who guides<lb/>
this nutty bunch through the jungles.<lb/>
After about an hour and 15 min-<lb/>
utes of exposition, we finally reach King<lb/>
Solomon's mines and get a glimpse of<lb/>
what we really wanted to see in the first<lb/>
 the bad gorillas<lb/>

their gray fur,<lb/>

gentler Amy. The<lb/>
filmmakers were<lb/>
so concerned<lb/>
about scaring the<lb/>
child audience<lb/>
that they forgot<lb/>
kids love bad guys<lb/>
too. Without some<lb/>
sort of threat the<lb/>
heroes have noth-<lb/>
ing to do.<lb/>
I can't say everything about this<lb/>
film is bad. There are some decent ac-<lb/>
tors doing their best to stay afloat Emie<lb/>
Hudson is fun to watch as he speaks<lb/>
his best British and jumps out of an<lb/>
airplane with a gorilla clinging to his<lb/>
chest And credit must be given to Tim<lb/>
Curry for the simple fact that as a friend<lb/>
pointed out he is the only actor who<lb/>
seems to know what kind of film he is<lb/>
in. Remember, this is not drama with a<lb/>
capital "D At best this is melodrama,<lb/>
but in reality it should be a fun B-flick.<lb/>
Credit should also be given for<lb/>
some nice special effects (there is lava<lb/>
sequence that works well on the big<lb/>
screen), a rather exciting scene where<lb/>
Linney and Hudson use flare guns to<lb/>
destroy missiles being fired at their<lb/>
plane, and Bruce Campbell's Oscar-cali-<lb/>
ber scream when he first sees a savage<lb/>
man-ape. Other than that Congo just<lb/>
makes a monkey of itself. On a scale of<lb/>
one to 10, this film rates a four.<lb/>

If you noticed a peculiar, fishy smell<lb/>
in the air last week, it wasn't that infa-<lb/>
mous Tar River reek. It was the odor of<lb/>
the new Primus album hitting record<lb/>
shop shelves all over town like the catch<lb/>
of the day.<lb/>
Titled Tales from the Punchbowl<lb/>
this is the fifth release from San<lb/>
Francisco's strangest sons. This disc fol-<lb/>
lows in the Primus tradition of quirky,<lb/>
bass-heavy tunes, but also offers a dis-<lb/>
tinct new twist Going against all expec-<lb/>
tations, Tales is  laid back After the<lb/>
dark and heavy plodding of Pork SHa<lb/>
(the last Primus outing), this one seems<lb/>
positively lackadaisical.<lb/>
The disc opens with the sounds of a<lb/>
carnival, the lead-in to "Professor<lb/>
Nutbutters House of Treats Setting the<lb/>
tone for the rest of the album, this song<lb/>
tells the story of an odd little man who<lb/>
sells candy. At Nutbutter's marvelous<lb/>
house, Primus crooner Les Claypool tells<lb/>
us, "There's creamy and nutacious<lb/>
spreads for all<lb/>
But there's something vaguely dis-<lb/>
turbing about the good professor. The<lb/>
song hints that Nutbutter (a "master of<lb/>
entomology") does some strange things<lb/>
with worms that scare the kiddies away.<lb/>
Something dark lurks about in the cor-<lb/>
ners of this song, something that<lb/>
Claypool, frustratingly, refuses to reveal<lb/>
completely.<lb/>
And that's how most of Tales from<lb/>
the Punchbowlgoes. The songs are little<lb/>
stories about one strange character or<lb/>
another, and odd evil hangs ominously<lb/>
at the peripheries like demons seen out<lb/>
the comer of the eye.<lb/>
In "Glass Sandwich for example,<lb/>
our unnamed hero stands in line to<lb/>
"watch the ladies dance" at a coin-oper-<lb/>
ated peep show. But as "he stands look-<lb/>
irig eye to thigh" with her, he discovers<lb/>
that the girl behind the glass is the ex-<lb/>
girlfriend whose rejection he was trying<lb/>
to escape. The simple chorus takes on a<lb/>
positively hopeless air as Claypool croons.<lb/>
"It's the nature of things<lb/>
Lyrically similar is "De Anza Jig a<lb/>
rockin' little banjo tune that serves as a<lb/>
jarring musical contrast to the usual<lb/>
Primus madness. In this one. Claypool<lb/>
seems to be reminiscing about old friends<lb/>
from high school who have come to sor-<lb/>
did ends.<lb/>
The lyrics here border on the inane,<lb/>
though, as Claypool waxes eloquent on<lb/>
gross habits. "I can still remember my<lb/>
old friend Todd Squelati he warbles. "I<lb/>
watched him snort a milkshake right up<lb/>
his nose He slurped it up the left side<lb/>
 Blew it out the right side How he<lb/>
kept it down I will never know<lb/>
While this is. I suppose, an attempt<lb/>
at creating some grotesque slice-of-lite<lb/>
freak show, it dips a little too low into<lb/>
Beavis territory for my taste.<lb/>
Too many songs on Tales from the<lb/>
Punchbowl get mired in pointlessness.<lb/>
Even the first single, "Wynona's Big<lb/>
Brown Beaver doesn't go anywhere lyri-<lb/>
cally, despite its attempts at filthy word<lb/>
play.<lb/>
Luckily, these tracks have the mu-<lb/>
sic to spur them along. On Tales,<lb/>
Claypool and bandmates Larry LaLonde<lb/>
and Tim "Herb" .Alexander are having<lb/>
fun. giving the album that loose feel of<lb/>

ate professor of music has published<lb/>
again. Choirs, handbells and pianos<lb/>
will be putting these dots in the air<lb/>
everywhere. Pubished by Art Masters<lb/>
Studio Incorporated out of Minnesota,<lb/>
this collection of sacred music is the<lb/>
latest effort by Pierson.<lb/>
Though not a member of the com-<lb/>
posing faculty, earlier he made his<lb/>
mark with a group of compositions<lb/>
dedicated to colleague Donna Dease<lb/>
who died tragically. Her death pushed<lb/>
Pierson to publish his work in trib-<lb/>
ute.<lb/>
"I first got started composing for<lb/>
Donna Dease, a colleague of mine. She<lb/>
passed away and it drove me to finish<lb/>
my work and have it published<lb/>
Pierson said.<lb/>
A tragic beginning in composi-<lb/>
tion blossomed into more scores. In<lb/>
1994, Dr. Pierson received a commis-<lb/>
sion from the Broad Street Method-<lb/>
ist Church in Charlotte, North Caro-<lb/>
lina. This commission was to compose<lb/>
for the children's chorus, piano and<lb/>
-adult choir a special Easter symphony<lb/>
of sound.<lb/>
The newly tenured professor is<lb/>
always thinking about music.<lb/>
"When I am not performing<lb/>
onstage or teaching from the piano<lb/>
keyboard, I can be found on the com-<lb/>
puter keyboard, creating, editing or<lb/>
entering my latest composition<lb/>
Pierson said.<lb/>
He traces his interest in music<lb/>
back to elementary school.<lb/>
"I was interested as early as el-<lb/>
ementary school. I have always sang<lb/>
Pierson said.<lb/>
A degree in music education from<lb/>
Olivet College prepared him for the<lb/>
world of music, but Pierson was not<lb/>
sure which route to take until<lb/>
Eastman Conservatory took him in.<lb/>
"After finishing high school, I did<lb/>
not know what road to take in music.<lb/>
After getting my undergraduate de-<lb/>
gree from Olivet, the determining fac-<lb/>
tor was when Eastman accepted me<lb/>
said Dr. Pierson.<lb/>
Eastman is one the top music<lb/>
schools in the United States. Getting<lb/>
in and staying there amid world class<lb/>
competition is quite difficult<lb/>
"Getting into Eastman is like get-<lb/>
ting into a good medical school. All I<lb/>
did was live and breath music. The<lb/>
program is very intense<lb/>
Eastman gave him a teaching fel-<lb/>
lowship for tuition which required<lb/>
Pierson to teach undergraduates. This<lb/>
fellowship taught him to love teach-<lb/>
ing.<lb/>
"That was how my teaching ca-<lb/>
reer got started. I decided I wanted<lb/>
to pursue a teaching career in con-<lb/>
junction with a performing career<lb/>
said Pierson, who received both a<lb/>
masters and doctorate from the pres-<lb/>
tigious school.<lb/>
While getting his doctorate,<lb/>
Pierson taught at Bucknell before<lb/>
coming to East Carolina.<lb/>
"While teaching at Bucknell, I<lb/>
decided it was time for a challenge so<lb/>
I applied at East Carolina and they<lb/>
took me in said Pierson. who teaches<lb/>

Where I grew up the only<lb/>
place you could find cultural pro-<lb/>
grams was on PBS. As a youngster<lb/>
I spent many hours in my rural<lb/>
home watching Sesame Street and<lb/>
National Geographic programs.<lb/>
Later on, NPR, the radio equiva-<lb/>
lent of PBS, introduced me to clas-<lb/>
sical music and an on-going love<lb/>
affair with America's most original<lb/>
art form, jazz.<lb/>
These programs are supported<lb/>
partially by the government one-<lb/>
third of the operating costs come<lb/>
from Uncle Sam and the rest from<lb/>
donations. The cost to every Ameri-<lb/>
can is one cent per week, that's 52<lb/>
cents a year for every man, woman<lb/>
and child in the country. It seems<lb/>
to me that we citizens get our<lb/>
money's worth with these particu-<lb/>
lar programs.<lb/>
In a relentless attempt to cut<lb/>
out unnecessary and costly govern-<lb/>
ment programs. Newt Gingrich and<lb/>
his fellow Republicans wish to cut<lb/>
the funding to these programs.<lb/>
They say these programs target a<lb/>
liberal, elite, highly educated minor-<lb/>
ity of the American population.<lb/>
They say NPR and PBS are obvi-<lb/>
ously politically biased and should<lb/>
be supported by sponsors like their<lb/>
Republican counterparts, like Rush<lb/>
Limbaugh.<lb/>
First of all, these programs are<lb/>
not biased. NPR has been known<lb/>
to do programs on unorthodox<lb/>
subjects: gay lifestyles, minority<lb/>
issues, and so on. Since America is<lb/>
made up of all kinds, shouldn't all<lb/>
kinds be represented? It seems vei y<lb/>
democratic to me, and besides that,<lb/>
it doesn't cost very much.<lb/>
I am living proof that listen-<lb/>
ers and watchers are not just of a<lb/>
liberal and elite crowd. My father,<lb/>
who is a farmer, listens to NPR<lb/>
every morning before he goes out<lb/>
to the field. You don't have to have<lb/>
a Ph.D. to listen to Mozart, just an<lb/>
ear or two.<lb/>
Then there is the idea of put-<lb/>
ting commercials on these public<lb/>
broadcast services. One of the best<lb/>
things about NPR and PBS is that<lb/>
you don't have to sit through com-<lb/>
mercials. If we were to make these<lb/>
programs reliant on commercial<lb/>
support it would surely ruin the<lb/>
whole thing.<lb/>
Think about your local classi-<lb/>
cal station. How would you like to<lb/>
hear an ad for McDonalds and<lb/>
Uncle Ned's Discount Muffler Shop<lb/>
as an interlude between Bach's<lb/>
"Brandenburg" Concertos and<lb/>
Schubert's piano compositions?<lb/>
Seems ridiculous doesn't it?<lb/>
I really don't think this bill will<lb/>
pass; I know too many people of<lb/>
all types that enjoy the program-<lb/>

the early Primus. That feel is deceptive<lb/>
in places, however, as a closer listen re-<lb/>
veals the tight improv soloing and musi-<lb/>
cal trade-offs that usually find their<lb/>
homes on jazz albums.<lb/>
Especially impressive in this area is<lb/>
"Hellhound 17 1 2" Describing the kind<lb/>
of orderly chaotic riffing Primus lays<lb/>
down on any given track is impossible;<lb/>
you have to hear it to understand.<lb/>
But then, it always is. A new Primus<lb/>
album is not something to be devoured<lb/>
whole. Each release has its own distinct<lb/>
flavor, and each takes some getting used<lb/>
to. Tales from the Punchbowl is good,<lb/>
dark fun from the masters of evil circus<lb/>
music.<lb/>
But for Primus fans, it's a trip to the<lb/>
zoo: fun, terrifying, fascinating and tainted<lb/>
by the vague feeling that you're partici-<lb/>
pating in something very slightly per-<lb/>
verted. Oh, and it smells funnv. too.<lb/>

Panthers' camp<lb/>
Willie Brookins<lb/>
Brian Paiz<lb/>
Assistant Sports Editor<lb/>
Junior Smith has found a new<lb/>
home in Cajun country, but his team's<lb/>
nickname should be familiar. The<lb/>
former ECU running back has signed<lb/>
on with the Shreveport Pirates of the<lb/>
Canadian Football League (CFL), and<lb/>
has been in camp for the last three<lb/>
weeks.<lb/>
Smith left the Pirate football pro-<lb/>
gram as the leading rusher in school<lb/>
history with 3, 672 rushing yards, as<lb/>
he surpassed Carlester Crumpler last<lb/>
season in a game against Southern<lb/>
Mississippi. Smith rushed for 100<lb/>
yards or more sixteen times in his<lb/>
career, which included a school record<lb/>
282 yards on 31 carries against Tulsa<lb/>
back in 1993.<lb/>
Shreveport competed in their in-<lb/>
augural season in 1994 finishing 3-<lb/>
15. The Pirates are coached by former<lb/>
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Forrest<lb/>
Cregg, and they play all home games<lb/>
at Independence Stadium, which is<lb/>
also home to the Independence Bowl.<lb/>
"Junior has been real impressive<lb/>
during camp run-<lb/>
ning the ball and<lb/>
receiving said<lb/>
Missy Setters, me-<lb/>
dia relations direc-<lb/>
tor for Shreveport.<lb/>
"I believe Jun-<lb/>
ior Smith will have<lb/>
a lot of success in<lb/>
Shreveport said<lb/>
ECU assistant foot-<lb/>
ball coach Jeff<lb/>
Treadway. "I think<lb/>
that he will turn out to be an excel-<lb/>
lent professional football player<lb/>
The CFL differs from the NFL in<lb/>
the fact that they have a 110-yard<lb/>
field, 20-yard end zones, and play<lb/>
three downs instead of four on each<lb/>
possession. The width of the field is<lb/>
also 65 yards, compared to a 50-yaid<lb/>
NFL field. In the off-season Shreve-<lb/>
port signed former NFL player Billy<lb/>
Joe Tolliver to take over the helm as<lb/>
quarterback.<lb/>
Shreveport opens their pre-sea-<lb/>
son on Friday as<lb/>
they host the<lb/>
Birmingham<lb/>
Barracudas. On<lb/>
July 8, ESPN2<lb/>
will televise the<lb/>
Pirates home<lb/>
game against<lb/>
the Calgary<lb/>
Stampede at<lb/>
7:00 P.M.<lb/>
In other re-<lb/>
lated news,<lb/>
former Pirate linebacker Willie<lb/>
Brookins is in the Carolina Panthers<lb/>
pre-season camp in Rock Hill, SC. Last<lb/>

As first summer session moves<lb/>
towards exam day, the intramural<lb/>
softball and basketball playoffs have<lb/>
begun as well. With temperatures<lb/>
beginning to scar, the intensity of<lb/>
competition is also expected to in-<lb/>
crease as a number of teams remain<lb/>
in the title hunts within their respec-<lb/>
tive divisions.<lb/>
In softball, the big winner for the<lb/>
week was the weather, as rain<lb/>
claimed victories by wiping out half<lb/>
of last week's games. However, sev-<lb/>
eral teams have established them-<lb/>
selves with strong finishes heading<lb/>
into the post-season.<lb/>
"U Lose" appears to be the team<lb/>
to beat in Men's Gold as Kemp Ewing,<lb/>
Stephen Lovett and "Fore" Rembert<lb/>
continues to pound the ball in victo-<lb/>
ries over the "Mooseheads" and<lb/>
"Earl's "Slow and Sloppy" re-<lb/>
bounded from a close loss to "U<lb/>
Lose" last week to complete the regu-<lb/>
lar season in strong fashion behind<lb/>
the all-around play of Kyle Bostic and<lb/>
the fielding of Tom King.<lb/>
A sleeper team in this division<lb/>
could be "Transit Authority who<lb/>
moved up from Purple division,<lb/>
where they dominated. The "Pent-<lb/>
house Players" have also moved up<lb/>
to Gold for the playoffs, joining<lb/>
"Theta Chi" and the other teams<lb/>
mentioned above.<lb/>
The number of men's Purple<lb/>
playoff teams has shrunk due to the<lb/>
departure of "Penthouse" and "Tran-<lb/>
sit but "Summer's Eve" finished un-<lb/>
defeated and enters the playoffs as<lb/>
the favorite, fueled by the big bats<lb/>
of Ernie Holden and Pete Cerra.<lb/>
However, their final regular-season<lb/>
contest yielded stiff competition, as<lb/>
the "Unknowns" scratched out a 19-<lb/>
19 tie with "Summer's Eve With<lb/>
extra innings being used in the play-<lb/>
offs, this tie may be broken in the<lb/>
post-season.<lb/>
The "Cavemen" have also im-<lb/>
proved as the season comes to a close<lb/>
after they added Matt Snyder,<lb/>

Staff Reports<lb/>
The East Carolinian<lb/>
Lace up your cleats and get ready to score<lb/>
in the Capital City 3-V-3 Soccer Clash. On JuV 15<lb/>
&amp; 16, soccer players from Atlanta to Washing-<lb/>
ton, D.C. will travel to Raleigh, N.C. to participate<lb/>
in this event benefiting the Capital Area Soccer<lb/>
League (CASL). Participation is open to all soc-<lb/>
cer players, not just those in the CASL.<lb/>
The Capital City 3-V-3 Soccer Clash will be<lb/>
held at the WRAL Soccer Center of US 1 North<lb/>
in Raleigh. The soccer center is the largest soc-<lb/>
cer facility of its kind on the East Coast with<lb/>
over 15 full-size soccer fields.<lb/>
The 3n-3 soccer format is a new idea that<lb/>
is becoming a big hit nationwide. The Soccer Clash<lb/>
is the first major 3-on-3 soccer tournament to be<lb/>
held in North Carolina, and up to 400 teams are<lb/>
expected to participate. This tournament has<lb/>
something to offer all soccei players, from the<lb/>
young to the young at heart The ages range from<lb/>
Under 5 to adults, with instructional, recreational<lb/>
and competitive divisions.<lb/>
The Clash will be played on smaller fields, 30<lb/>
to 40 yards long, depending on the age groups<lb/>
involved, with 3 to 4 fields laid out across a full-<lb/>
sized field. The Clash uses reduced-sized goals -<lb/>
with a new twist There are no goalkeepers. Shots<lb/>
on goal must be taken from the offensive side of<lb/>
the midfield, and there is a 10-foot "no touch" arc<lb/>
around the goal in the U9 and older age brackets.<lb/>
Games consist of two 15-minute halves and a two-<lb/>
minute halftime.<lb/>
Each team is required to have three members<lb/>
on the field, but may have up to five on the roster,<lb/>
and substitutions are unlimited. Teams will be<lb/>
placed into divisions based on the age of their old-<lb/>
est player, as well as the team's selected skill<lb/>
division.The Clash is also looking is volunteers<lb/>
interested in serving as field monitors for the or"<lb/>
petition. Volunteers are not expected to be ifar-<lb/>
ees. The job of the field monitor is to keep le<lb/>
score and game time while generally overseeing<lb/>
on-field play and conduct<lb/>

(AP) - Jerry Stackhouse be-<lb/>
lieves he and the Philadelphia<lb/>
76ers would be a perfect match for<lb/>
a life together in the NBA.<lb/>
The Sixers in turn say that they<lb/>
regard the 6-foot-5 Stackhouse as<lb/>
a "fine name and quality indi-<lb/>
vidual<lb/>
Now. the hard part will be to<lb/>
work out the details so that<lb/>
Stackhouse is still on the board<lb/>
when Philadelphia makes its pick<lb/>
in the upcoming draft. The Sixers<lb/>
hold the No. 3 pick after Golden<lb/>
State and the L.A. Clippers.<lb/>
"This is my first visit to any<lb/>
NBA jam and I have enjoyed it<lb/>
Stackhouse said Monday after he<lb/>
worked out for the Sixers and dis-<lb/>
cussed philosophies with coach-<lb/>
general manager John Lucas and<lb/>
owner Harold Katz. "I've become<lb/>
familiar with the 76ers and defi-<lb/>
nitely feel that it would be a nice<lb/>
fit for me<lb/>
The versatile UNC sophomore,<lb/>
declared his eligibility for the draft<lb/>
a month ago, said he likes the fact<lb/>
that the Sixers are a young team.<lb/>
"I think there's a great upside<lb/>
to this team, because they have a<lb/>
lot of young players - not too marry<lb/>
guys at the end of the road he<lb/>
said. "From what I understand, they<lb/>
want to have an up-tempo team. I'm<lb/>
a guy who can get out on the wing<lb/>
and create things and cause some<lb/>
havoc defensively<lb/>

Golden State and the Clippers<lb/>
about moving up in the June 28<lb/>
draft in order to take Stackhouse,<lb/>
who averaged 15.7 points and 8.2<lb/>
rebounds for North Carolina this<lb/>
past season.<lb/>
In that regard, Lucas says that<lb/>
the Sixers are willing to take their<lb/>

them rather than overpaying to<lb/>
move up.<lb/>
