THllRft October 5,1995 Vol 71, No. 13 The East Carolinian Circulation 12,000 East Carolina University Greenville, N C 12 pases (ECU News Bureau) - East Carolina University stu- dent has been diagnosed with meningococcal meningitis and has been hospitalized at Pitt County Memorial Hospi- tal. The student, Iris Lee Th- ompson, 18, is a freshman from Woodbridge. Va. He is a walk-on member of the ECU football team who lives in the Scott Residence Hall on cam- pus. University officials have begun contacting other stu- dents who may have been in close contact with Thompson for screening and for preven- tive treatment if necessary. The preventive treatment is an oral antibiotic adminis- tered for two days. The entire football squad will be screened. Jolene Jernigan, clinical coordinator at the ECU Stu- dent Health Service, said the disease - an inflammation of the brain- is not highly con- tagious. It can be spread through direct intimate contact, such as sharing living space or eat- ing utensils, Jernigan said. Students who attended class with Thompson would not be considered to have been in direct contact with him, she said. At his residence hall, stu- dents who lived in his suite would be treated as having di- rect contact, but those who just lived on the same floor would not Symptoms of the disease include a sore throat fever, headache, skin rash, stiff neck and vomiting. "There are lots of viruses going around right now that have some of the same symp- toms Jernigan said. She said State Health De- partment officials had recom- mended that four categories of people be screened for signs of the disease: The en- tire football team, including coached and support staff: Thompson's roommates and close friends: a girlfriend or any woman he dated since Sept 30; and anyone whose house he visited since Sept 30. Jernigan said that screen- ings swill begin at the Student Health Service at 8:30 a.m. Thursday. Individuals who are concerned that they should be screened are encouraged to call the center at 32&6841. Country facing financial aid woes Federal aid falls under government chopping block Miriam Brooks Staff Writer Government decisions regarding federal student financial aid will af- fect students at universities across the nation A recent Budget Resolution adopted by congress in the hopes of balancing the federal budget by 2002 will decrease the amount of money available for federal student loan pro- grams over the next seven years in an attempt to save $10.4 billion. The impact on students and edu- cational institutions will be immense, particularly because the federal gov- ernment provides 75 percent of all stu- dent financial aid, according to a re Aid processed over $L million in stu- port compiled by the Alliance to Save dent loans. The tax ECU would have Student Aid. One-half of all students in public colleges who are enrolled full time need federal stu dent aid, the re- port stated. Rose mary Stelma, di- rector of student financial aid on ECU's campus expressed con cern over the im plications these proposed cuts will have on ECU students. "ECU would have to pay a tax on the student loans they process she said. "This would amount to .85 percent of the total loan volume Last year, the Office of Financial "We would be paying $200,000 for the privilege of allowing students to go into debt" � Rosemary Stelma, director ot financial aid office to pay to the federal government it the budget resolution goes into effect would amount to a staggering $200,000 Word on the Internet has it that such measures will force universities to raise tuition. "We would be paying $200 000 for the privilege of allowing students to go into debt Stelma said. "We are being penal- ized for having needy students. It is not right for a school, such as ours, that has a high percentage ot needy students to be penalized in this manner Congress has proposed to cut State, Carolina seek tuition hikes Tuition to be used for faculty salary increases Marguerite Benjamin Senior Writer Despite the efforts of student organizations and some concerned university business officials, at least two schools in the UNC system are expecting a $400 tuition increase. Various groups at North Caro- lina State University (NCSU) and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) have been try- ing for months to dissuade their schools' board of trustees from ap- proving the hike in tuition that will mainly be use d to increase faculty salaries. This summer, the RC. General Assembly passed a law that would allow the board of trustees oi the two campuses to decide indepen- dently whether or not the increase was necessary. If the plan to increase tuition is to be enacted, the General Assem- bly decreed, "at least 35 percent of the funds collected from the in- crease would go into financial aid. The rest of the money would be used for meritbased faculty salary in- creases, library funding or both The president of the University of North Carolina System, CD. Spangier, has received criticism since the beginning of the negotia- tions because he voiced opposition to the increase. "I cannot discern the ecoi imic justice of taxing students to raise faculty salaries Spanglev said. -In- evitably this will build up animos- ity Spangier said the tuition in- crease would be unfair to students from lower income families, and that the act would create a situation in which wealthy students would pay tuition while poor students would be on a type of "educational wel- fare Spangier said he could not see the logic in taxing students whose average family income is in the $40,000 range to increase the in- come of faculty members who "in some cases earn twice as much Spangier faced the N.C. State Board of Trustees with several sug- gestions and alternatives to the tu- ition increase. He suggested petitioning the General Assembly to provide fund- ing for the increases in faculty sala- ries which already stand at $70,000 for full professors at NCSU and at $74,700 for UNC professors. Other suggestions Spangier made to the board included: ex- empting students already on finan- cial aid from the tuition increase, not allowing the increase (if passed) to be used to pay profes- See TUITION page 3 njoy as well .is certain interesl exemptions that ai ate and professional students Othei strategies include higher ii I on all student loans.

The elimination of the six month grace period means interest on stu- dent loans begin to pile up the day after graduation. The original purpose of the grace period was to give stu- dents a chance to track down a job. As securing a job after graduation becomes increasingly harder, removal of the grace period will compound dif- ficulties faced by new graduates.

Depression screening helps �r Free screenings offered throughout Greenville today Stephanie Ann Eaton Staff Writer Are you depressed? Do you know the signs of depression? The Mental Health Association is aiding the Greenville community in becoming more aware of depres- sion. Today is National Depression Screening Day. Mental health professionals will be throughout the Greenville community giv- ing free screen- ings to help citizens deter- mine if they show the signs and symptoms of depression. Depres- sion affects more than 17 million Americans every year, according to figures from the National Institute of Mental Health. Unfortunately, many people do not recognize they have a problem. Fewer than half the people affected actually receive treatment. The only way to make a difference is to address the problem of depression � Gail C. Home, executive director of the Mental Health Association "Depression is the most treat- able disease. Two out of the three- people who go in for treatment are cured said Gail C. Home, execu- tive director of the Mental Health Association. "It is not a character flaw. Depression needs to be medi- cally cured Participants of National Depres- sion Screening Day will receive a brief talk on the causes, symptoms and treatment of depression fol- lowed by a brief video. Participants will be given an anonymous written test for depression and then given the opportunity to go over the re- sults with a mental health profes- sional. "The only way to make a differ- ence is to address the problem of de- pression Home said "By address- ing the problem we are given more op- portunities to re- search it National De- pression Screening Day is held every year during Men- tal Illness Awareness Week. It was developed five years ago by Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Douglas Jacobs. At last year's screening day. over 82.000 people attended nationwide. "We hope that this nationwide effort to provide mental health screening for depression will edu- cate the public abou the signs and symptoms of depression and encour- age those who may be vulnerable to seek evaluation and treatment said Jacobs, who is also director of the National Screening Day project in a recent article. The free screening will be held today at the following locations: Carolina East Mall from 12-8 p.m Mendenhall Student Center from 10 a.m6 p.m GHA Cultural Recre- ation Center-Moyewood from 4 p.m 8 p.m Pitt Community College from 9 a.m5 p.m. and the Plaza Mall from 12 p.m8 p.m. See HELP page 3 Jeff Dockery, Grad student "Yes.

The trustees will meet on that day. We have been busy trying to complete the (Shared Visions) campaign Shared Visions has now received $60 million so that's obviously going well and that's an effort a number of people at the university will be working on as we now aim for the conclusion of Shared Vision at the closing of this calender year. We have a number of projects underway at the campus and even as we conclude those we're beginning now to plan for future project needs On Pirate football "I have been attending all the games so far. both home and away, and have been very impressed indeed by the efforts of our team. They clearly have a great deal of courage and never say quit, and those are obviously- commendable qualities. They have done very well against very stiff compe- tition and I'm hoping they will continue to show East Carolina's colors well as we proceed On the tuition increases at N.C. State and Chapel Hill "1 was asked what my thoughts were about these increases tat the Faculty Senate meeting) and I said then that I think the idea of tying increases in student tuition to faculty salary increases is simply bad public policy. I find that to be not a good idea in both the short and long run. In the short run, 1 think it clearly, in this case, benefits two universities to the exclusion of 14 others. The other 14 universities have faculty who have salary needs and we have faculty who are leaving us because they can find better opportunities elsewhere. I find it difficult to distinguish the faculty salary needs at two universities from the other 14. In the long ran. I think it sets a dangerous precedent in a state in which the public's responsibility has been long understood in terms of funding higher education. Higher education is stated in our constitution as being a very important thing that should be provided at the least practical cost. This legislation is a falling away from the state's responsibility to provide higher education at the least practical cost" On the state-wide budget cuts "At one point in the budget process, it appeared there would be major cuts in not only East Carolina's budget but in the entire 16 campus system. During the course of the process, from my vantage point, cooler heads prevailed and we did not receive clearly what we had hoped for and asked for, but our cuts were minor in many areas and in some areas indeed we even had a recognition of inflationary and other cost increases. We were able to weather that storm at this university and across the system in a way that will not cause us to have to reduce our commitment to students and their education On the opening of the Ledonia Wright Cultural Center "I'm personally quite excited about the opening of that center. It seems to me we have been able to give that center a home that it deserves on the campus I always personally viewed the previous site as being a very tem- porary arrangement that didn't seem to be reflective of the efforts we are making in terms of cultural diversity and in terms of trying to expand the cultural horizons of all of our students AID from page 1 these changes include Pell Grants. Perkins loans. State Student Incentive Grants (SSIG), Stafford loans, small federal scholarships, fe! .vships and the Federal Direct Stud Loan Pro- gram. Approximately six million stu- dents benefited from these programs in the 1993-94 year, according to a report prepared by the American Council on Education in August of 1995. The impact of the fiscal year 1996 Budget Resolution will therefore be of immense importance to students and educational institutions. Those who will be hurt most by these proposed measures include the thousands of students who major in fields such as nursing, teaching and social work, which require higher edu- cation but are not highly paid profes- sions, the Alliance report stated. The Alliance is an organization dedicated to making students aware of unfolding government events that will affect their ability to receive an education. In addition, they want to mobilize students and educational in- stitutions. The Alliance to Save Student Aid conducted a public opinion survey in January of 1995 in which 89 per- cent of Americans voted that help- ing students financially is second only to social security in importance. These voters voiced the opinion that decreasing student aid is an undesir- able way to reduce the budget defi- cit. Ninety-two percent voted that fi- nancial aid for students is an impor- tant investment in America's future. Over two-thirds think that if some- thing has to be cut in order to bal- ance the budget deficit, the defense program should be re-evaluated be- fore taking a bite out of federal stu- dent financial aid. Direct Federal student loan pro- grams are also under fire by con- gress. ECU does not participate in the direct student loan program but will still be affected by its elimina- tion. "If we lose the direct student loan program than the incentives for banks to be more competitive and receptive to the needs of the students and the institution is gone Stelma said. Many believe that the strategies of congress in their efforts to balance the budget deficit are misguided. Af- ter all. it has long been said in America that education is the key to the fu- �MHnHMHmMMHmmaHBB ture. Proposed student aid cuts, if carried out, would mean that less stu� dents will be able to receive a college education. 'These cuts will have a serious long term impact on educational op- portunities Stelma said. Cutting student financial aid is a short sighted measure when it is taken into consideration that financial aid more than pays for itself in the long run by producing productive people who increase the tax base and enable America to be competitive on a glo- bal scale, the Alliance report stated. The Alliance to Save Student .Aid is working to keep congress from en- acting their proposed cuts.

"They have to find ways to attract these people financially Getsinger said the reason ECU, along with most of the other universities in the UNC system, is not expecting the same $400 hike is because research is not the ma- jor goal on which the university is focused. "We do conduct research, and we have some very good people do- ing it Getsinger added. "We just are not as involved on the same level as State and UNC.

If aid is cut, many students are going to have no option but to quit school. Is this what our government is aiming for?

Wright, Media Adviser Janet Respess, Media Accountant Deborah Daniel,Secretary Once again we are going to bitch about financial aid, only this time we won't be pointing fingers at the unorganized op- eration on our campus. Instead, we aim to find out why the American government feels it is necessary to cut our financial aid by $10.4 billion. We may all be feasting on Macaroni and Cheese and Oodles of Noodles by the time Congress is finished with us. If their proposed plan goes through each of us will be forced to rely on jobs and our parents to support us while we get an education. With one half of all students in public schools needing fed- eral support and ECU processing an average of $25 million in loans each year, too many are going to suffer while in the pro- cess of only bettering ourselves. With cuts like these occurring in our government, is it any wonder that high school graduates are opting to skip out on college and go straight into the work force? Ever heard the expression that you get more from doing less. Heck, we could probably make out better drawing unemployment from the gov- ernment and leaving the college education to those whose par- ents can afford tuition (which by the way will probably be raised before we know it). By attempting to cut our financial aid, it seems as though Congress isn't listening to the American people who expressed that cutting aid is not the ideal way to reduce the budget defi- cit. If our opinions don't matter, why do we even bother to vote? In a study conducted in January, 89 percent of Americans said next to social security, financial aid is the one area the govern- ment shouldn't touch. But, it looks as though Congress couldn't care less what we think. We're only the ones who put them in office. Our concerns are no longer important. It seems as though the government is kicking itself in the butt. Everyone claims that America is losing its priorities and that we are taking our focus off the children who are our future leaders. So what is our government saying about the value of an education when they propose to end the six month grace pe- riod (after graduation) and raise interest rates on all loans. Several weeks ago, TEC received a press release straight from the Oval House written by President Clinton claiming to explain the need to cut financial aid. Is he concerned about us or is he simply setting up his platform for '96? Our voices and opinions need to be heard to stop Congress (those who already have their degrees) from hindering our educations. One day we'll be in their positions. Let's only hope we have more com- passion for college students than today's government does. Take action and call 1-800-574-4AID.

Driving yourself to the grave I am not here to preach. I am here to remind everybody about how pre- cious life is. I know this sounds like the typical cliche you might find in a typical article. However, it is not. I want to remind everybody about the idea of a designated driver, you know, that person who gets to hang around their drunk friends and almost babysit them. It may seem like the worst job in the world, but just think of the al- ternatives. If you are not there to drive your friends home, you might not still have those friend the next day. I am not say- ing that all accidents are caused by drunk drivers, what I am saying is that the majority of them are. A friend of mine was driving home from a concert sober as could be. She and her friends had the perfect evening. She had just become a sister in the sorority she had worked so hard to join. Everything seemed perfect After the concert she and her friends were on the highway driving back to her school when she got hit I do not mean sideswiped or rear ended, I mean a head on collision. The driver of the other vehicle had apparently had way too much to drink, and having climbed into the cab of a jacked-up truck, com- menced to navigate his way down the wrong side of the highway. She did not have any time to re- act She turned the wheel of her little Honda, but it was too late. The truck plowed right into her, killing one of Brian Lewis Burns Opinion Columnist It is not too much to ask for one person to remain sober for one evening. her friends immediately. My friend was lucky enough to live until she arrived at the hospital. My friend would still be here with me if that drivers' friends, who were sober had taken his keys or had called a cab for their friend. There were two sober men in the cab of that truck watching their drunk buddy at the wheel. I was not the only person to lose in this situation. My friend's par- ents will never be able to see their daughter again. Her friends will never he able to hear her laugh or see her wonderful smile again. It is because of this guy and his buddies that she is no longer with us. This is why it is so important for people have a designated driver. It is not too much to ask for one person to remain sober for one evening, ensuring the safety of their friends. The designated driver program is perhaps one of the best ideas that I have seen come around in a long time. My fraternity has a program like this. Every weekend night two people sit at home and wait for a call from a brother or a friend who needs a ride. This goes on all semester long. However you set up your program, it is important that you know who is the designated driver for that evening. This simple little step could possibly save you from having to face the real- ization that you may never see your friends again. I do not recommend having to go visit your friends in a hospital or even worse, as I had to do, at the cemetery. The hard truth is that when someone who has been drinking gets behind the wheel of a vehicle, they are selfishly taking not only their life into their hands, but anyone else who happens to be on the road that night Please, for your safety and that of your friends, be responsible enough to have a designated driver available ev- ery time you are drinking. It can really make a difference, and I don't want to have to read about some poor indi- vidual who could have been saved from disaster by making one phone call to a friend or for a cab. It is now up to you. If you decide to go out and drink, then you have to call someone. Do not get behind that wheel and take others lives in your hands! What happened to our role models? Who controls the giving tree? Many, many moons ago when I was a small innocent and unblem- ished child, my parents read me a story. The story was of a tree that gave a man all that it had and was the solution to all his problems. Shell Silverstien's book The Giving Tree had me convinced that I was left out in the cold, because the trees didn't talk to me. Well, many moons later I've made it through my feelings of loss and done so without becoming a se- rial killer and blaming it on a lack of attention from trees. And just when I thought my problems were over 1 find that the giving tree is not just a childhood short story. It exists in the country of India. No, this tree doesn't talk to any- one (unless they are on some sort of hallucinogen, in which case the sky is the limit). But it does have the cure to an awful lot of man's evils. The tree in question is India's Neem Tree. Its leaves and branches are used to treat leprosy, diabetes, ulcers, skin disorders and constipa- tion. The seeds are used to form an extract that has served as a natural insecticide for centuries. It controls lice, flies, beetles and mites. The seeds can be used to kill small ro- dents as well. As with almost all problems, the root of trouble is in control. The is- sue is whether or not anyone has the right to control ancient biological se- crets. Well, as of now, someone does; W.R. Grace and Company. You see, the company patented the Neem seeds in America and is currently doing quite well off them. They've taken the original pesticide formula and made it better then marketed it. The conflict is being instigated Chris Arline Opinion Columnist As with almo all problems, the root of trouble is in control by the Foundation on Economic Trends' president Jeremy Rifkin. A self-proclaimed environmental watch- dog, Rifkin leads a mass of about 200 scientists from 37 different countries. Their claim is that it is unethical to take a country's indigenous natural resources and make a profit from them. They claim that the new flux in demand will make it too expensive for the native farmers, who have used the tree and its seeds for generations at virtually no cost to afford them. The one thing they are overlooking is that this patent is applied only to the United States, not India, which itself banned the patenting of agri- cultural technology years ago. Come on, you tree-huggin-cause- hunting-little-crybabies. You are the very little bunch that gives the envi- ronmental watchdogs a bad name. Let's face it, we are not dealing a bunch of thugs cutting down people's trees and not letting them use the seeds. We are using the technology they discovered to make the world a better place. But how do they stand to gain from this change? They benefit the same way the Chinese did when Lipton started to export tea. The same way the Hawaiians did when Dole got into the pineapple business (the single largest industry in the rainbow state). It's simple, by increasing the de- mand for one of its biological re- sources, another industry will be sprouted in an underdeveloped na- tion that desperately needs the in- vestment and tax revenue. We can also look at the future opportunity this offers. With good news like this coming from Asia, think of the research that this stands to spark in the region. When yields of similar research operations in South America have been minimal in recent years, insiders may be look- ing for new markets. As far as ethics go, who's to say? There is no such international ethics board available to step in and call the game. The petition filed by Rifkin and his crew will fail because of the void mentioned above. At best maybe their cause will indeed spark up interest in starting such an organization. In no way, shape or form is this meant to bash environmental watch- dogs. I recycle and "give a hoot" more than most people I know. The prob- lem is with the poor cause that these individuals have chosen. If you're worried about India get- ting ripped off, you are wasting your time. They don't trust America any- way. They would be the first to kick out foreign exploiters just as fast as the OPEC nations did, or at the very least force them into profit sharing agreements. PS. My family uses the Neem seeds to control moles, they work great. You gotta love Charles Barkley. Why? Because like his counterpart, "Neon" Deion (I don't give a damn about the money) Sanders.his very presence makes the sports world a better, more exciting place. But what happened to our real role models in athletics, the guys like Dr. J, or Walter Payton? The guys who went to the gridiron, the base- ball diamonds or the basketball are- nas every day and were able to look beyond the media's ridicule of them? Where have those guys gone? How about the same guys that don't en- ter the national spotlight just to shoot their mouth off as we, the sports enthusiast have acknowledged and shrugged them off with "Oh, that's just Deion It appears that Charles Barkley, who has not one NBA Championship ring on his finger, better recant his statements about role models. I have a feeling that in the near future nei- ther he nor the American viewing audience will hear the "I wanna be like Charles" song unless it is uttered in the same sentence as "retirement" I have a problem with today's professional athletes, who already think that they are above society stat- ing that they should not be role mod- els to anyone, not even elementary school children. Looking back on the past month in collegiate athletics, it was one tu- multuous time that should probably have gone by much quicker - that is Eric Barteis Opinion Columnist What happened to the real role models in athletics the guys like Dr. J or Walter Peyton? if you are Lawrence Phillips, or de- fending national championship coach Tom Osbome (from Nebraska). After losing his junior running back from West Covina, Calif, because he was accused of assaulting women, it was rumored that Osbome may repeal his original decision and allow Phillips to rejoin the squad. Now, is this logical? Who are we dealing with here? Barry Switzer and the Oklahoma Sooners of the mid '80s? No, how about the Southeast- ern Conference, who deserve to be honored with the best football play- ers in the nation while their coaches and staffs are the best shysters. Whose turn is it to take the athletic probation challenge? We have already seen Auburn, Kentucky and Florida. Hey, how does Alabama sound? First off, let us first commend the antics of our foes from Tennes- see. Nilo Sylvan sure did a number on us back in early September, but on his way to the big bowl, it appears that Sylvan ran into the law, some- thing much bigger than the Pirates. Accused of rape, Sylvan will not plead his case until mid-November and by that time, coach Phillip Fulmer will have plenty of reasons to insist that his star wide receiver rejoin the team. Especially for reasons like the Citrus Bowl or Gator Bowl. In any respect, (if that word "re- spect" can be supplied in reference to the SEC or the defending national champions), what goes through these coaches' minds? Do they think that they can get away with violating NCAA sanctions on recruiting as well as let their players use calling cards to call 1-900 numbers (UTenn.)? The absurdities have amassed over the last six months, especially for the members in the SEC. Ala- bama, who made "Bear" Bryant spin a few times in his grave, rolled sev- ens as they lost at the NCAA Sanc- tions Crap Shoot a few months ago, when it was revealed that Antonio Langham was almost a Christmas package for coach Gene Stallings to unwrap around January 1. I'm also sure that for Christmas that year Langham was buying some good pre- sents for his family. And the children of our future do not need role models? Now there is a flaw in our society. m Letters To the Editor: There is no doubt that the "Unibomber" sic is a serial murderer who should be caught and brought to justice in the electric chair. At the same time, what he has been saying about capitalism, technology, greed and the exploitation of the working class of America is true. We, the work- ing class poor of Pitt County, North Carolina have been continuously forced by the ruling class to live in poverty within an environment that become increasingly toxic and unliv- able. A pharmaceutical manufacturing company here is destroying our rights to survival by their constant high pow- ered, high velocity noise levels at night and chemicals released into the atmosphere and water. Cigarette com- panies throughout the South have murdered millions with their disgust- ing "golden weed upon which poi- son chemicals are sprayed from air- planes all summer long, here in Pitt County. May I be so "self-serving" as to mention that I too, as a non-smoker, must inhale, ingest and live with these same bizarre chemicals that pour down from the sky on my mobile home as well as the surrounding fields? Meanwhile, our minds and the minds of our children are continu- ously bombarded and poisoned by the propaganda and trash produced by the Hollywood and television media and the popular song industry. If the unibomber sic had de- voted his life to writing, speaking and political activism, instead of making bombs to kill and injure people, what a significant contribution to human- ity he would have made.

Ocean-going mer- chants and visitors were entertained and amused by jazz musicians who had to consistently change their style to keep folks coming back to a cer- tain club. Of course, much has changed since jazz's early bayou years in the late 19th century One example of such alterations is the instrumental changes over the century of jazz his- tory. But the most vital element, the improvisational nature of the music, is still alive and well in the hands of the newest generation of jazz musi- cians. In association with the Student Union Popular Entertainment Com- mittee, ECU's Jazz Department will be showcasing their most gifted stu- dents tomorrow night in the ongo- ing Jazz at Night series. "It's fun for us the jazz faculty because we get to see our cats and catettes jazz students in a more in- timate setting stated Carroll DeShiell, director of jazz studies. "We get to see what they've learned. Then we can work one on one to hammer out any problems they have with their performance Each semester, there are a few- major jazz recitals in Wright Audito- rium. But a venue of Wright's size doesn't lend itself very well to the intimacy of the small clubs that pro- pelled jazz into the public eye. The structure of Wright makes it impossible for audience members to move about in the arena and. due to the size of its stage. Wright intimi- dates many musicians. "Jazz at Night is similar to Wright, but more like a coffeehouse type situation a looser performance that is very good for the cats and catettes DeShiell contends. "It's not necessarily a 'formal' concert; it's a club setting the students' friends and peers see them in a looser atmo- sphere "Friday's event is not only a non-alcoholic alternative to down- town, but will have many different things in it. There will be some Coltrane and Ellington, as well as some contemporary jazz The Jazz at Night program will feature four instrumental leaders from the jazz program and as many as four vocalists. The two featured reedmen on the bill are tenor saxman William Tynch and altoist Vaughn Ambrose. Brassman Mitch Butler will also be featured, sliding his trombone. A duet is also scheduled between pianist Dennis Figgs and Ed Combs, sure to be a hit in itself. An accomplished jazz bassist him- self. DeShiell humbly gives credit for the Jazz at Night event to the student activities office and the students them- selves. "We've had great support from J. Marshall assistant director of student activities, and we've been working closely together to make this happen he stated. "It gives students the chance to express themselves in their craft Jazz at Night should last about two hours in the Great Room at Mendenhall Student Center. It's sched- uled to start at 8 p.m and promises to be just as productive for the perform- ing students as it is entertaining for audience members.

Jay Myers Staff Writer Greta is a competent pop rock band. With their initial album, Xo Bit- ing, they gained critical acclaim but made no impact on the buying public. As far as that goes, Greta breaks no new ground with their sophomore record, rhi.s .5 Greta! Although this is a listen- able album with good production, it makes no movement away from formu- laic rock structures. On No Biting, Greta established an aural flip-flop between hard-edged power pop and acoustic, jangly folk-pop that alternated from song to song. It had bite and soul at the same time. On This is Greta, they have relinquished both of those extremes in favor of a happy medium that leaves them sound- ing slightly bland and bored. There are a couple of things that save this record from the trash bin, though. First the lead singer and major songwriter for the band, Paul Plagens, has an excellent voice which embodies character and inflection, things that are missing from most singers' repertoires today. This flexibility enables him to give dramatic readings to songs that would otherwise be lost in the musical dol- drums allowing them to embody anger, sarcasm, indifference and reluctance. People often forget that songs are a form of poetic expression, and if they are read with emphasis and articulation, instead of simple screaming, they become some- thing different (not that screaming doesn't have its own benefits). Also, these guys are excellent mu- sicians. Greta's first line-up consisted of Plagens and bassist Josh Gordon, along with lead guitarist Kyle Baer and drum- mer Brad Wilk. Plagens and Gordon have been friends since their early days in junior high and know each other's musical styles so well that their playing has become an organic experience that shows up well in their studio work. Just prior to Greta, Baer and Wilk had been in a band called Indian Style lead by a pre-Pearl Jam Eddie Vedder, so that experience should establish See GRETA page 7 Photo by PATRICK IRELAN In his officemusic studio, Carroll DeShiell (right) helps Vaughn Ambrose (left) and Mitch Butler (center) prepare for their Friday evening performances in the Jazz at Night series. 117V6te � SNL" holds out new hope Every paper has a TV critic, but our critic is no normal couch potato, no mere TV junkie. No, our man will watch anything, anytime, regardless of quality or good taste. Truly, he has no shame, and that is why we call him "The TV Whore Kevin Chaisson Staff Writer I must confess. I really, really wanted to be evil to last Saturday's premiere of the new-and-somewhat- improved "Saturday Night Live I mean, after all, SNL's track record hasn't been up to anyone's snuff lately. This once-great sbple of irreverent television comedy has been floundering (no, make that drowning) in a backwash of backbiting, in-fight- ing, wasted potential and general unfunnyness. Making great comedic talents like Michael McKean, Chris Elliott, Mark McKinney, Norm MacDonald, Janeane Garafalo (a true waste), Ellen Kleghorne and Mike Myers wallow in squalor so low that the only laughter heard is a kind of nervous, embarrassed chuckle is, my friends, a crime. So was I ready with poison pen in hand to nail "SNL" for losing stride and sucking for the past two years? You betcha. Hell, I had a scary surgi- cal instrument . ready to lance this boil of non-comedy. But they proved me wrong. Mostly. Surely you are all aware of the great attempt to re- invent "SNL" by creator and pro- ducer Lome Michaels. Also, then, you know that everybody from last season's cast has either been dropped or quit with the exception of five: MacDonald, McKinney, Tim Meadows, Molly Sh- annon and David Spade (who will only be doing his own little annoying shtick). Maybe you don't know that they hired some new people with excep- tional comedy credentials: David Koechner and Nancy Walls from Chicago's Second City troupe (which gave us Ackroyd, Belushi, Radner, etc.), Will Ferrell and Cheri Oteri from L.As very funny Groundlings players, and stand-ups Darrell Hammond and Jim Breuer.

The latest may well be his best Washington seems made to play the role of Ezekial (Easy) Rollins, a war veteran who finds himself out of work in 1948 and unknowingly becomes in- volved in illegal dealings that may end up killing him. Devil in a Blue Dress is the first novel about Rollins by Walter Mosley. As adapted for the screen and directed by Carl Franklin, the story seems perfect for Hollywood -film noir with a black protagonist. But for a change the filmmakers do not merely insert a black man into a role that could have been filled by a white one like Humphrey Bogart Franklin, probably thanks to Mosley's novel, imbues Rollins and the entire film with complex, charismatic life. Rollins has the serious, quiet flawed character that can involve a viewer in that character's life. Some of the deci- sions Rollins make are questionable, but the audience at least understands why he made them, even if they don't agree with them. Rollins is not portrayed as superhuman either. In fact the finale of the film catches the audience off guard because the hero does not come in to save the day. Washington has quietly become one of the most reliable leading men working in films today. He confidently gives Rollins the toughness and warmth necessary to make the character come alive. In a muscle top tee-shirt and a thin mustache, Washington looks like he was born to play Rollins. He could have stepped out of a 1948 film. Franklin works hard to create the authentic feel of Devil in a Blue Dress. From lue establishing shot which has a stream of cars from that era rumbling down a main street Franklin asserts his intention to take a realistic look at post- war life in Los Angeles. Franklin does more than just a perfunctory job of establishing Rollins' life at home. I worried that an early scene in which Rollins plants a tree in his backyard would be the only one I would see of Rollins oeing a real per- son, instead of just a hard-boiled loner embroiled in a case. Franklin repeatedly shows Rollins at home; sleeping on a chair on his porch, rweeping off his sidewalk, look- ing at his yard. Because of the charac- ter development Rollins emerges as a three-dimensional figure that makes Devil in a Blue Dress feel like more than just a two-dimensional image projected on a screen. Franklin also adeptly handles the racial tensions of the era. Rollins is re- cruited to find a white girl because she has a "predilection for negroes The police go easy on Rollins when they suspect him of killing a black voman, but come down hard when he is then accused of killing a white man. The boundaries between black and white keep appearing, as when Rollins must be sneaked into a section of a hotel that is whites only A good detective film, even one with the intriguing character develop- See DEVIL page 8 &ao6 IRevteca Love and demons occupy new novel Ronda Cranford Staff Writer From the Nobel prize winning author of One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera comes a new novel. Of Love and Other De- mons is only 147 pages long, so if you've never read Marquez and don't have the time to get involved in a novel as long as those mentioned above, this is the book for you. The story takes place in South .America during the colonial era. At the center is a misunderstood 12- year-old girl. Sierva Maria is the neglected child of decadent aristocratic parents. She is raised by slaves and completely ignored until the day she is bitten by a rabid dog at the market in town. When this fact comes to light her father at last decides to become involved in her life. Unfortunately, this means disas- ter for the girl. Months later, when she comes down with a fever, he calls in a number of quack doctors who do all they can to inflict as much pain and abuse as they can onto the girl in the name of medicine. This abusive experience results in a behavior similar to that of rabies victims. Sierva Maria's problems are further complicated by the fact that she's largely ignorant of how to con- duct herself in white culture. She speaks African lan- guages more fluently than her own. She's never been to church. Soon, however, she finds herself impris- oned behind convent walls, held captive for the pur- See DEMON page 7 The East Carolinian Thursday, October 5,1995 GiJlVJLj 1A from page 6 some current rock credibility for this band.

Scott Carneghi. All in all, the band sounds tight and good. It's just the material that constrains them. The major fault of this release from Greta is that it sounds forced.

Father Delaura is bright enough to figure out that the girl is sim- ply frightened and not possessed at all, but he's not bright enough to devise a way to convince everyone else. He falls in love with Sierva Maria, and she falls for him as well. The shadow of the Catholic church looms over every aspect of this story. Delaura, being a librarian, is fascinated with books that were deemed forbidden by the church. At one point in the story, he is introduced to the illegal book col- lection of a Jew and is amazed to find a copy of Don Quixote. We begin to real- ize that the church serves as a shield for the ignorant and petty characters of the story to hide behind, and in this way it precipitates more evil than it elimi- nates. The politics of the church consist mainly of persons in power pointing fin- gers at helpless victims, such as Sierva Maria, and once these victims are la- beled as "evil" there is no saving them from the wrath of the Church. This is something that Delaura should realize, since he himself has read many forbid- den texts and has had the opportunity to see the church isn't always right This is a fact he can't accept, however, and because of this he can't see that coop- eration with the church isn't going to work in his situation. Instead of rescu- ing Sierva Maria from the Convent he decides to wait until the whole nasty business works itself out and Sierva Maria is absolved. In the convent where she is held prisoner, Sierva Maria iives in a cell next to an insane nun. In the house where she grew up, an insane asylum for women is next door. Her father has a lifelong romantic involvement with one of the patients. These crazy people are much more harmless than the Bishop that Delaura works for and the Abbess who is in charge of the convent wk e Seirva Maria goes for exorcism. Social conventions and the church serve to get in the way of everybody's happiness in Of Love and Other Demons. This novel isn't one of Marquez' best, but that's not saying it's not a thor- oughly absorbing and satisfying read. The story contains the same richly tex- tured settings as his other works, and the characters are just as fascinatingly unusual. The book is not as deep and intricate as One Hundred Years of Soli- tude or Love in the Time of Cholera. but that's because it's so much shorter.

Tom Sizemore is again effective as a seem- ingly calm hoodlum with an anger that can flair in a heartbeat. Jennifer Beats is alluring as Daphne Monet, the girl Rollins is recruited to find, and Don Cheadle steals his scenes as Mouse, a friend of Rollins with a penchant for murder. Devil in a Blue Dress lacks a flamboyant style that may lessen its appeal. Please believe this humble critic that you would be doing your- self a disservice to pass up this film simply because it lacks glamour. The methodical pacing and realistic atmo- sphere allows the viewer to savor the story and the characters. The atten- tion to detail in the filming of Devil in a Blue Dress may allow this to be- come a minor classic. Still. 1 worry about the audience reaction. As 1 stood in line on Friday night at The Plaza 1 listened to the 25 people ahead of me buy their tick- ets and every one asked for tickets to Halloween, The Curse of Michael Myers. 1 looked behind me and saw at least 50 more people and my hopes raised a little. But when Devil in a Blue Dress started there were less than 3C people in the theater with me. Why, I wondered, would patrons pay $5.50 to see a derivative horror film when they could spend the same money and see what promised to be a film with integrity? Perhaps I'll never answer that one. But 1 can answer whether Devil in a Blue Dress is worth seeing. That answer is yes. On a scale of one to 10, Devil in a Blue Dress rates an eight. sconced in a death-shroud of crap. This was followed by guest-host Mariel Hemmingway's opening shtick. a one-shot joke about Hemmingway's "controversial" kissing of Rosanne Barr. Thus, "SNL" hits its second deadly sin after only ten minutes of being on the air: the pretty funny joke that goes on for an eon and makes the viewer want to climb a bell tower with a high-powered rifle, scream "Not funny and shoot folks. Already I was curled up, sneer on my face and pen in hand, waiting to pounce on this show that appeared to have lost its last leg. Then came "A.M. Ale "A.M. Ale" was another in "SNL's" bitingly funny commercial parodies, showing a huge beer with the pointed byline "Because you can't wait "till afternoon Excellent, but then again, these parodies have always been good. Then another lame skit featuring Ferrell (who is essentially Kevin Nealon) as a shouting psycho dad brought the show back down. Finally, however, this new cast hit its stride with a nasty "Nightline" skit featuring a debate between Gen. Colin Powell (Tim Meadows) and Sen. Bob Dole (Norm MacDonald). MacDonald was beautiful, barking like a mad dog that Powell is a homosexual. When Powell responds he is happily married. Dole said, "Yeah, well, a lot of people like to drive two cars Also well done was a new skit. Leg Up: A Show for Dancers About Dancers hosted by Ann Miller (Sh- annon) and Debbie Reynolds (Oteri), who discuss the costars they've slept with more than dancing. As these two die-hard musical warhorses. Shannon and Oteri perform the best female- driven sketch comedy "SNL" has seen since the premiere of Mike Myers' "Coffee Talk" (oh, wait). Following that was "Weekend Update" and 1 believe that anchor Norm MacDonald has almost hit his stride here. Comparisons to Dennis Miller still rage, but MacDonald is making this bit his own with such "news" bits as Johnnie Cochran try- ing on the knit hat as O.J. yells out in the courtroom "Hey, hey! Easy with that! That's my lucky stabbing hat The rest of the show floundered afterwards, particularly David Spade's new weekly bit "Spade in America" (self-pandering and stinky). And the attempt to bring back Mike McKinneys bizarre Chicken Lady character from his "Kids in the Hall" days was horribly botched. But hey. that middle part was excellent! As far as standout members of the new cast, only Oteri's Debbie Reynolds comes to mind. The new men are all pretty much Kevin Nealon clones. 1 am hopeful for this new cast, however. We often don't remember how hit-or-miss the show was when Ackroyd. Belushi. Chase, et. al. graced "SNLs very early days. These days, this new cast should be happy with the hits it had. Anyway, it's better than "The State On a scale of one to 10. the pre- W �2- Cox Floral Service, Inc. Welcomes ECU Students & Personnel Flowers for Every Occasion. Professional Designers.

Eleven new records set at pentathalon J. Miles Layton Sports Editor The swim team set 11 new pentatnalon records Wednesday in Minges Pool. The men's team beat two school records and the women's team beat nine. The team holds an annual pentathalon before the first meet of the seasoa Each swimmer must predict what his or her time will be for each stroke for points. Those closest to their assigned times get the most points. The events are the 200-yard individual medley which features four 50 yard strokes of butter- fly, front crawl, back stroke and breast stroke. Following this, there are four sepa- rate 100 yard strokes with a 12 minute rest in between. The strokes are butter- fly, breast front crawl and backstroke. Coach Rick Kobe was very pleased with the effort of this team before their first meet "We established 11 new pentathalon records today Kobe said. "The most we've ever set is four The winner for the men's team was freshmen Pablo Espada with 4500 points. Espada broke the 1978 pentathalon record for the 200-yard in- dividual medley set by John Tudor at 1:58.64. Espada's time was 1:58 evea He was surprised at his new record. "I didn't think 1 was going that fast" Espada said. Sophomore Jim Broughal came in second with 4080 points. Broughal won last year with 2690 points. Third went to junior, Chris Bembenek who broke his own record set in 1993 for the backstroke. His old time in the 100-yard backstroke at 54:73 gave way to a new 54:70. Fourth place went to junior Brian Wall who scored 2430 points and fifth went to freshmen Edward Garguevic who hau 2370 points. The winner for the women's team was junior Melanie Mackwoodwith 4000 points. Mackwood broke the 100-ard butterfly record with a 1:01.48 which was set by Melissa Phillips in 1993 at 1:01.73. MackvoM also broke the 100 yard front crawl record with a new time of 55:02 which had been set at 55:08 by Hilary Stokes. Mackwood didn't think she was moving that fast "I thought the race was like work pace, hard, but not race pace Mackwood said. Freshmen Lynsey Bullington tied with sophomore Sandra Ossman for sec- ond place with 3460 points. Ossman broke the 200-yard individual medley record set by Kim Field in 1994 at 2:15.03 with a new time of 2:14.45. She also broke the 100-yard butterfly record pre- viously set by Melissa Phillips in 1993. Senior Jackie Schmieder came in third with 3450 points. Fourth went to Amanda Atkinson who scored 3440 points and fifth went to Kim Field who scored 3410 points and broke two records. She broke the 200 yard indi- vidual medley record and the 100 yard butterfly record.

ECU to battle tough CU offense Brian Paiz Senior Writer When ECU travels to Cincinnati on Saturday to face the Bearcats, they will be facing a college football team that is not reflective of their record of 14. Coach Rick Minter's squad has played tough ail season long, losing tight decisions to Kansas, Kansas St, Miami of Ohio and Toledo. The Bearcats one victory was impressive, as they went to Blacksburg, Va. and defeated Virginia Tech 16-0 on their home field. ECU leads the series with Cincin- nati, 8-1 including last season's 35-21 victory in Greenville. However the last time ECU visited Nippert Stadium in 1993, the Bearcats sent the Pirates home with a 34-14 loss. Cincinnati returned 16 starters and 37 letterwinners from last year's 2-8-1 squad, and so far this season the star of the Bearcat team has been jun- ior wide receiver Robert Tate. The Harrisonburg, Pa. native had 315 all- purpose yards against Toledo last week, including a career high 177 yards receiving. Tate has 987 total all- purpose yards so far in '95, and is ranked seventh nationally. UC quarterback Eric Vibberts is Volleyball team defeats Campbell . r .� . �k. cn ii ti K.it �ho Thp KCV comeback continuec Erika Leigh Hamby Staff Writer On Tuesday night the women's volleyball team took on Campbell University in Williams Arena. The match consisted of five games, with the Lady Pirates winning three of the five.The scores were: Came 1 ECU 15-11, Game 2 Cambell 15-8, Game 3 Campbell 15-10, Game 4 ECU 15-8 and Game 5 ECU 15-6. The night began with ECU tak- ing the first game 15-11. Lady Pirates Melanie Richards and Carrie Brne led the game with five and eight kills re- spectively. The Lady Pirates played the first match very well with only six errors. The second match was a little disappointing with ECU only scoring eight to lose it 8-15. Five Pirates con- tributed to the eight points scored by ECU. The Pirates only had six er- rors in the second game. The third game brought disap- pointment to the ECU team with the Lady Pirates losing 15-10. The team did hold down the number of total errors to only five this time, but the team total of kills was only 10, each kill accounting for one point. But the Lady Pirates came back in the fourth game to win big 15-8 over Cambell. The Lady Pirates held the total errors down to four in the fourth game, and racked up 11 more kills to win the game and regain their momentum. "We're glad we won, but for the team it's not good enough and in or- der to become better we need to fo- cus more and play better ball said freshmen Kristen Meininger. The ECU comeback continued into the fifth game with the Lady Pi- rates winning again 15-6. In this fi- nal game the Pirates recorded no errors and five kills and once again the majority of the kills were attrib- uted to Richards and Bme. Coach Kim Walker said the night was a learning experience for the team. "Well we won sometimes flat matches teach you more than great matches and we were flat said Walker. "We will stay positive and work to get better averaging 228 total offensive yards per game, which ranks him 26th in the NCAA. He was 19-38 for 302 yards against Toledo. The Bearcats rushing game is led by Craedel Kimmbrough, a 5-foot-ll, 181-pound senior, who after five games has 220 yards for Cincinnati. On defense the Bearcats returned eight starters from the the '94 team. The key to the Cincinnati defense is 6-foot4 215 lb Sam Games who had 134 stops a year ago. So far this sea- son Games has 47 tackles from his free safety spot, and was named Lib- erty Bowl Alliance defensive player of the week for his two interception per- formance against Kansas St Line- backer Muharn El-Mubarak leads the Cincinnati defense with 62 tackles in '95, which included 25 against Toledo Outside linebacker Brad Jackson has had a fine year up to date. In the win over Virginia Tech. Jackson inter- cepted two passes, recovered two fumbles, and made 13 tackles. He was named Conference USA and Sports Illustrated Defensive Player of the Week. NOTES: The game between ECU and Cin- cinnati on Saturday will have the nation's fifth oldest football program in Cincinnati against the nations fifth youngest in ECU Saturday's game will be the first for both teams in the Liberty Bowl Alliance. After the Cin- cinnati game the Pirates will have a week off to prepare for Temple on homecoming in Greenville . . . Cin- cinnati is in its first season of the 12- team . . . Conference-USA.

Miles Layton Sports editor In order to get away from the cha- otic residence hall environment the ECU football team spends the night in a hotel before every home. After hav- Photo by KEN CLARK Wide receiver Troy Smith chats with Logan before heading to Kinston for the night ing dinner in Todd Dining Hall, the team piles into two buses at 7 p.m. and heads to Kinston to stay at the Hamp- ton Inn. Dr. Henry VanSant, associate di- rector of the Athletics Department said spending a quiet night away from cam- pus is a standard practice of most Di- vision I football teams. "It is a common practice all over the country VanSant said. "The team wants to be together and get away from the & ws of the dorms. It is a verv imnncHc.il quiet, private time When the team gets to the hotel, players go to meetings to discuss the upcoming game. There are strategy sessions held about defensive and of- fensive game plays. VanSant said the time away gets the players to visualize and focus on the game. "Focus is very important" he said. "We try to get them to visualize the game. We want them to be thinking about what they are going to do After the strat- egy sessions, mov- ies are shown be- fore the players hit the sack at 11:30 p.m. Depending on the time of the game, they have to be up and ready early the next morn- ing. The West Vir- ginia game called for a 7 a.m. wake up call. VanSant said the team used to spend the night in Greenville at the Comfort Inn three years ago, before new ownership raised prices. The team then moved to the Holiday Inn in Williamston before finally moving to the Comfort Inn in Kinston. VanSant said the moves have been based on price, but he hopes the team may again move back to Greenville. "We may move back to Greenville if we can find what we are looking for he said. VanSant said most other teams do not sleep in hotels the night be- fore the game because it would be "Basketball and other teams may have two or three games a week ver- sus football which has five home games a year he said. VanSant recalled Ihe days when he was a coach and explained that get- ting the team together the night be- fore a big game is important because it bonds the players and coaching staff together. "This is a pretty good thing for football he said. Intramural soccer kicks off Pick your team, registration to begin Oct. 16 David Gaskins Intramural Recreational Services The 1995 Intramural Soccer season is set to kick off next week with registration meetings and team signups leading to the open- ing of the season Oct. 16. The reg- istration meeting will be conducted on Oct. 10 at 5 p.m. in the General Classroom Building, room 1031. AH team captains should plan on at- tending- this meeting in order to obtain necessary information and paperwork for participation in the league. Unaffiliated players seeking a team should also attend the meet- ing for assistance in placement on a team. Team signups will be con- ducted Oct. 11 in Christenbury Gym, room 104-A from 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Leagues will be offered in men's independent purple, men's independent gold, men's indepen- dent blue, men's residence hall, women's independentresidence hall and sorority. The Gold League is designed for experienced players who wish to participate in a highly competitive atmosphere whereas Purple Leagues are designed for teams who are somewhat more com- petitive but less advanced in skills and experience. The Blue Leagues are intended for individuals seek- ing a recreational outlet who are not advanced in skills and are par- ticipating solely for fun. The vari- ous leagues offered are intended to provide a level of skill and competi- tiveness appropriate for anyone desiring to play. League times are available on a variety of days and times in order to accomodate the schedules of participating teams. Regular season play will begin on Oct. 16. All teams will play within each of their respective divisions. Games will be held at the North Ficklen Stadium Intramural Fields. In or- der to participate, teams should send a representative to the regis- tration meeting, complete a roster cardparticipation contract, and sign-up for a league the following day. Regulation teams are com- posed of a minimum of nine play- ers but there is no roster limit. Par- ticipation is open to currently en- rolled students and facultystaff of ECU. The 1994 program was com- posed of 71 teams with the Tappa Kegs capturing the Gold All-Cam- pus Title. Goalkeeper Chris Nunn is expected to lead the Kegs back in an effort to defend their title from a host of worthy challengers. Among these challengers is ex- pected to be a unit led by the blaz- ing speed and dazzling footwork of Christian Mew. Mew is once again making a bid to win his first career See KICK page 10 McGee Moody Amanda Ross Staff Writer ECU swimmer McGee Moody's hard work and dedication have fol- lowed him throughout his swimming career. Since the age of four he has been swimming in summer leagues and since the age of ten has been swimming all year round. Moody, a senior from Albertville, Ala was recruited by three other schools. But his first choice was ECU. He had gotten of- fers from Ala- bama, Auburn, and Ohio State, but when he vis- ited ECU he had a good feeling for the swim team. In fact after he visited ECU he canceled his trip up to Ohio and told Ohio State he had made his decision. "A lot of guys made me feel re- ally welcome, like they really wanted me as a part of this team Moody said. "Now that I am here, I know how important it is to get people here Moody feels this is going to be a good season. A lot of new talent and many people stepping up their leadership skills, has helped the team build confidence going into a season where many of the oppo- nents look to be tough. Some of those challenging meets might come from ODU, who Moody believes is going to surprise a lot of teams or possibly JMU who is also an oppo- nent that has in the past had a strong swim team. Their biggest rivalry comes from UNC-Wilmington, always a strong contender in the CAA. "We could not have won a meet all year, and they (UNC-W) could be undefeated and it's still going to be a close meet Moody said. Before a meet Moody starts the day early, getting in a morning swim and some breakfast During the day he tries to keep his mind off the meet, until he arrives at the pool. "Once we're there and warmed up, I try to keep my mind off my race and watch everyone else and cheer them on he said. When he steps up on the start- ing block, Moody concentrates on one thing, having a perfect race. Before he begins, he will go over three or four things in his head and envision himself swimming without flaw. "I expect nothing less than a perfect race he said. Moody said the swim team is like one giant family that sticks together and helps each other out when things might � look slim. "We're al- ways patting each other on the back and picking each other up Moody said. When the going gets tough. Moody advises his teammates to keep going and hang in there. He constantly tries to pump his team- mates up. Pablo Espada, a freshmen who broke a school record for the 200 yard individual medley this week, said Moody is a team leader. "He is a team leader with a high spirit, who always keeps us going when we're having a tough practice said Espada. One thing Moody is very proud about is the fact there isn't much "He is a team leader with a high spirit, who always keeps us going when we're having a tough practice � Pablo Espada See WEEK page 10 �y V I . 10 Thursday, October 5, 1995 The East Carolinian Wlijb.IV from page 9 negativity among the swimmers. They all try to help one another out, whether that be in the pool or out of the pool. "Everybody knows their own job he said. Phis dedicated swimmer gives a lot of credit to his fellow teammates. lie believes much of this season de- pends on the freshmen, who he sees as being wry fast this year. He doesn't forget the other swimmers though. Moody said it is a group effort that everyone contributes toward. The fact that many people have helped out one another makes everything a team ef- fort They all pull together, no matter how tough things may get. A typical practice the swimmers endure is very intense. It requires the hard work and determination of ev- eryone. Not only do the swimmers practice hard but so do the coaches. "Everyone gives 110 percent in- cluding the coaches he said. Every team has a team motto so it is appropriate that the swim team have one also. Their theme has to do with staying focused and staying on track. Moody said the motto is about keeping on the right track. "You may be on the right track, but if you're sitting still you're still going to get run over Moody said. He said it's a motto that applies not only to swimming but applies to life itself. It is something that Moody strongly believes in and takes to heart before every meet. When Moody isn't in the pool you'll find him relaxing and possibly even watching a little football with some of his teammates. While he is relaxing he tries to think of swim- ming as little as possible. This talented swimmer would like to put his knowledge about the sport to good use when he graduates. He sees himself coaching, hopefully here at ECU. He is a double major, majoring in business administration and psychology, so if coaching doesn't work out he will have a back up plan. iVlVvIX from page 9 intramural contest. In the residence hall division, soccer guru Tony Cribble is plan- ning on assembling several teams to contend for a title while Ryan Danay's Tigers surprised followers by winning the Independent Purple Championship after getting into the league late on the waiting list. However, the competitive balance of the entire league could be dras- tically altered by the feverish re- cruitment of Vu "Golden Toe" Donie, the legendary star who is holding out for a long term con- tract from a number of eager bid- ders.

W lJVl from page 9 Junior Elizabeth Bradner broke the 100 yard backstroke record set by Amanda Atkinson at 1:01.1 in 1994 with a new time of 1:00.72. Kobe thinks this start so early in the season is good. This is a great start to what will be an outstanding season for the Pirates Kobe said. "To swim such good times this early in the season is absolutely great" Espada didn't believe the team was going to set so many records. "I think this is good he said. "The coach thought we were going to set 2-5 records and we set 11 between the girls and the guys Mackwood said she was pleased with the women's performance.
