SGA funds, plans debate Wendy Houston Staff Writer The Student Government Asso- ciation (SGA) focused on funding as usual during their third and fourth meetings. Student fees were also a topics of interest: an informative meeting debating student fees will be held on Nov. 13 in room 213 of Mendenhall and is open to the pub- lic. In a period of questions and privileges during the Oct. 16 meet- ing. SGA President Ian Eastman an- nounced a Board of Trustees meet- ing for Dec. 8, pointing out that stu- dent fees cannot be raised more than 5 percent. Two new applicants were sworn in under oath: Chris Hardee and Fabiola Price. The Oct. 23 meeting was called to order at 5:09 p.m. "From now on committee mem- bers need to be here by 5 so we can get started earlier said Harry Bray, SGA speaker. "We are going to be here for a while today, we have a lot to cover Joyner goes interactive During a period of questions and privileges, Angie Nix, SGA trea- surer, explained how graduate groups now have a separate fund- ing board. For the academic year they have a total of $10, 530 to ap- propriate to graduate organizations. During new business two new members were sworn under oath: Jo- seph Sottile and Sarah Wright. Concluding old business three out of four bills passed: Student Occupational Therapy Association requested $805. After voting to amend, $365 passed. Kappa Beta Pi Honor Society requested and was approved $974.34. The Society of Manufacture of Engineers had $110 pass. The Investments Club for the Schooi of Business requested money for a computer software database. "Software is dangerous to get involved with because of the ex- penses Bray said. He emphasized not to favor the bill; it did not pass by committee. Nix has compiled a first-time funding packet. "It is so groups have a better understanding of how we do our funding, that way they don't feel lost in the shuffle Nix said. The packet is available in room 255, the SGA office, in Mendenhall. The financial report, as of Oct. 30, had a total revenue of $262,433, including actual and estimated rev- enue. Total appropriations made were $176,068; which leaves a total available balance of $86,360. The meeting was adjourned at 6:35. Students become more computer oriented Stephanie Eaton Staff Writer Students using the computer network in Joyner Library this se- mester may have noticed some in- teractive changes. Joyner Library has given stu- dents a better opportunity to be- come more knowledgeable about computers by offering several dif- ferent services. Through these pro- grams, students are given more out- lets to turn to when working on as- signments. Joyner offers students the Internet, a library home page, CD- ROM, Horizon catalog for the stacks and an ample amount of other computer services. "Our new computer system makes it easier and faster for stu- dents to retrieve information said Nancy Shires, information grants officer for Joyner Library. Students can now access the Internet in Joyner Library. The Internet allows students to talk to people around the world. Not only does the internet provide a source of information, it also allows a per- son to share ideas. Students can use the Internet at computer sta- tions in the main lobby, the refer- ence department, document depart- ment and mediateaching depart- ment. "The Internet is good said Correai Moore, a student. "I enjoy it.

TOP TEN REASONS FOR VOTING FOR INEZ FRIDLEY FOR CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT 3 Inez is a proven leader. In 1987 and 1988 she was selected Greenville's Best Fublic Servant in a Greenville Times reader survey. Inez fought hard for our present recycling program, implemented in 1993, which is environmentally friendly and saves landfill space. Inez believes in public involvement. The noise ordinance critized by her opponent was adopted in 1985 and updated in 1990, both times with input from the SGA, fraternities and sororities. University officials, and the general public. The ordinance has served as a model for other university towns. Inez believes in strong towngown relationships and has been involved in a National League of Cities Task Force for University-City Relations. Inez is concerned about the environment and is a member of the Sierra Club, served on the advisory board of the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation, and has been Council liaison to the City s Environmental Advisory Commission, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Greenville Utilities Commission. Inez is a believer in greenspace and was instrumental in the establishment of the new Green Mill Run Greenway being dedicated October 29th, which extends from the ECU campus to Greensprings Park. Inez believes in strong code enforcement and does not believe that students should pay exorbitant rent for minimal housing. Inez believes in sound fiscal management and is committed to creative financial solutions that offer long-term advantages over short term fixes. Inez believes in stronger police protection and has supported innovative policing techniques such as bicycle patrols, police substations, and lap-top computers in patrol cars to improve efficiency. Inez is also an ECU graduate, who has been proud to represent the needsof students, neighbors, businesses, and the entire University Community. Alex Albright John Anema Or.

The East Carolinian Thursday, November 2, 1995 1 COMPUTE from page 2 looking for information. Computer users who have Netscape or Mosaic- on their home computers can re- ceive information from Joyner Li- brary by simply typing in a code. The Home Page allows students to access videocassettes, manuscripts. North Carolina periodicals, govern- ment business, employment infor- mation, electronic journals and other lull text sources. Computer users can also receive information from different universities. Another service available on the computers is CD-ROM. A stu- dent can find CD-ROM on only a few of the work stations in the li- brary. If a student has a question about the location of a CD-ROM title, they should ask the reference or documents department. Although Joyner had some dif- ficulty with the CD-ROM program this summer, the library contends that most of the CD-ROM has been restored. "We had a problem with the CD-ROM this summer, but now Joyner is looking for a new com- pany to help up with our problems Shires said. Horizon in the Stacks is a Joyner on-line catalog that helps students find information they need throughout the library. Sev- eral new Horizons in the Stacks terminals have been added in the east wing stacks and one on each floor. Several Horizons in the Stacks were placed in the west wing during the summer. Some students have expressed that added computers and new pro- grams are a positive step but may not benefit the students. "The resources in the library are really confusing. It is hard to find what you are looking for Moore said. Despite the increased technol- ogy, the library may still have a few bugs to work out. "The computers are helpful and beneficial but sometimes it takes entirely too long for an en- try to come up said Tammy Boyd, a student. to achrcrti ? in f tC, e-ll! 328-2000 Transsexuals' brains tend to differ Some men may already have "female" brain structure (AP) - Men who want to be- come women may have key brain structures that are biologically fe- male already, a small study of male- to-female transsexuals in New York suggests. "It might be an explanation for the fact that those people feel fe- male although genetically they are male said researcher Dr. Dick F. Swaab. The cause of transsexualism is a mystery that scientists have sought to attribute to psychology or biology. Experts say that the con- dition is rare but that there are no reliable figures on how common it Swaab and his colleagues ex- amined brain samples from dead people. They reported that on av- erage, the size of a certain brain structure in six male-to-female transsexuals was about the same size as what they found in women, and smaller than what they found in gay or heterosexual men. Other scientists cautioned that the result may have been produced by the sex-change treatments the transsexuals went through. Still, the study is "opening up a whole new area of questioning and it's adding to all the studies that have come out in the past 10 years pointing to biological factors that influence human sexual be- havior said Sandra Witelson, a professor of psychiatry and bio- medical sciences at McMaster Uni- versity in Hamilton, Ontario. Swaab is director of the Neth- erlands Institute of Brain Research in Amsterdam and a professor of neurobiology at the University of Amsterdam. He and Dutch col- leagues present the work in tbo journal Nature. Roger Gorski, a professor of neurobiology at the University of California at Los Angeles, said that going from the finding for one tiny brain structure to an explanation for a person's sexual identity is "a big leap But the study is "a step in that direction, and I think an im- portant one he said. The study focused on a brain structure called the BSTc that plays an important part in rodent sexual behavior and may do the same in people. Researchers found that on av- erage, the structure was 31 per- cent smaller in 11 heterosexual women than in 12 heterosexual men. The BSTc in transsexuals was on average about the same size as it was in the women's brains. Nine gay men had about the same average size as the het- erosexual men. Swaab said he doubts the BSTc itself is responsible for f?Tticm Instead, it ap- pears to be part of a larger brain network that makes a man feel like a woman, he said. Dr. Thomas Wise, director of research at the sexual behaviors unit at the Johns Hopkins Univer- sity School of Medicine, said he is not convinced that the study showed an innate difference in transsexuals. The reduced size of the BSTc might be due to the estrogen treatments they took to expand their breasts and otherwise femi- nize their bodies, or from the drop in their testosterone due to sex-change surgery or medication, he said. Swaab and colleagues argued against that, saying data from sev- eral of the brains in their study indicated that varying sex hor- mone levels in adulthood don't affect BSTc size. They cited data from two post-menopausal women, two people with tumors that raised hormone levels, two transsexuals who had stopped taking estrogen before death and two men cas- trated because of prostate cancer. Wise said the hormonal expla- nation still can't be ruled out. w JlSt Aeoeriow SEiaicres: Abortions up To 20 Weeks GeheraT Ahesfliesia" C&hvejiieht ?W?lih!c " I ALF LUNCH SPECIAL 2 slices I topping I drink EDO'S 2.75 mon - fri till 3pm TONITE LIVE on stage I i ve penny draft sunday AflemooalEvenmcHoars uder.t Rates vtfColteQeJD.

Both schools have valuable resources to add to the project as ECU currently has the only nurse midwifery program in North Carolina, and the country's first physician's assistant program was es- tablished at Duke University. "This project gives us an excel- lent opportunity to strengthen our programs by establishing community partnerships in which to train and better serve these communities Horns said. Both ECU and Duke offer mid- level practitioner training and nurse practitioner programs on their cam- puses in order to encourage more stu- dents to become involved. Still, infor- mation gathered before the study showed a large demand for mid-level practitioners. According to a study conducted during the research phase of the pro- gram, the eastern North Carolina re- gion has only one primary care physi- cian for every 2,571 residents. This number is twice the average of pa- tients per doctor in the nation as a whole. The "Partnerships for Training" project will rely on teamwork by ECU, Duke and the two area health educa- tion centers affiliated with the schools. Pembroke State University and community hospitals and doctors in the region are also joining in the effort to keep students in their com- munities. "If we educate the students here, they are more likely to stay and practice here Champagne said.

Is there one that suits your needs, or are you constantly having to take road trips to withdraw cash? Out with the old and in with the new - ECU's bank machine problems may almost be over. First Union has replaced one out-of-service teller ma- chine outside of Mendenhall Student Center and Wachovia never left its original spot which leaves one void to fill. While two machines might seem appropriate to handle ECU's student banking needs, service charge is not a pretty word. Competitive banks, such as Triangle, have chosen to install machines elsewhere because parking spaces be- side Mendenhall are no longer available due to the rec center construction. At one time, students could drive up to the bus stop and park their cars for a few minutes (in a metered spot) in order to use the machines - not any more. The lack of parking leaves the machine available only to those who happen to be on campus or who live nearby. Let us not forget the Cash Points machine located be- side the Student Stores on central campus. Students can still drive up to that spot, but a minimum of $20 has to be taken out (possibly more than most students have). These three machines cover central and west campus, but what about College Hill? The Wachovia teller located on 10th Street beside the Post Office sees more than its fair share of business. An ATM added to the top of College Hill (pos- sibly in Todd Dining Hall) might alleviate some of the con- gestion students often face when trying to get money from the 10th Street location. But as we all know ideas can take years to escalate into projects, especially completed projects. Who decides what machines get a spot on campus any- way? Competitive bidding allows banks to hold the supreme space of ECU, but why can't all banks be allowed to share in fair competition? The university is planning to install information kiosk machines across campus and there is certainly room for as many banks as the university wants to allow. With downtown seeming to be the favorite nightlife spot for many students, one would think downtown would be an ideal location for banking machines. But, there's only one available - in the parking lot for Chico's and Bicycle Post. This dark lot is not the ideal locale for stu- dents, primarily female students, to be withdrawing money on late weekend nights. So to retrieve money, these patrons are expected to either carry a wad of cash downtown, drive intoxicated to a bank machine, walk to Mendenhall (in hopes that one of the machines may be working) or simply do without (which can only hurt downtown establishments and banks). So, once again, it seems as though the needs of the students are being overlooked for the convenience. - The East Carolinian Stephanie Lassiter, Editor-in-Chief Crissy Parker, Advertising Director Celeste Wilson, Production Manager Tambra Zion, News Editor Wendy Rountree, Assistant News Editor Mark Brett, Lifestyle Editor Brandon Waddell, Assistant Lifestyle Editor Amanda Ross, Sports Editor Paul Hagwood, Staff Illustrator Erika Gohde, Production Assistant Jeremy Lee, Production Assistant Kami Klemmer, Production Assistant Ken Clark, Photo Editor Patrick irelan, Photographer Xlali Yang, Systems Manager Rick Lucas, Copy Editor Patrick Hinson, Copy Editor Lanl Adkinson, Copy Editor Paul D.

Bowling for dollars Who says that college football is made up of amateurs? Okay, the play- ers might be, but when it comes to coaches it's business as usual. With big money waiting in bowl berths, the stakes are high, and this is where sportsmanship is left at the stadium gates. There are two main problems fac- ing college football seasons. One is that it needs a playoff system to elimi- nate controversy. The second is that there needs to be better regulation of the way polls are conducted. I warn you that at no point will I be placing any sort of blame on the players for these problems. I thirjk that as a whole, they do a good job of fulfilling their obligation - to do as they are coached. The chief problem facing col- lege football is that there is not a true playoff system. The great poll con- troversy of the 1994 season involved a dispute between the two unbeaten teams, Nebraska and Penn State, and who was really the national cham- pion. They both had the same record and won their bowl games, respect- fully, but the decision was left up to pollsters. This situation has been partly remedied since that point, but not to the degree to which it should. There was an alliance formed that stated that when it came to the number one and two teams in the nation that all deals between their conferences and the various bowls were off. This would be almost flaw- less except for the fact that the teams of the Pac 10 and the Big 10 didn't sign on, and, thus, still remain com- mitted to the Rose Bowl. Fortunately, this shouldn't be a problem this year because the high- est team in either of these two con- ferences is Ohio State, coming in at number four. But who's to say in the Chris Arline Opinion Columnist There are two main problems facing college football seasons. near future, with a very young and talented USC in the ranks, that a problem won't arise. This is where the second prob- lem rests. It's the pollsters that make the decisions as to who is ranked what. The problem with this is that so many of the people making these decisions don't actually watch the teams they are voting on. This is largely due to the fact that the votes have to be in early Sunday morn- ing. The coaches and writers don't have enough time to do anything more than look over the stats be- fore faxing in their decisions, and this leads to the problems with sportsmanship. With stats determining the way the voting goes, the only way for coaches to give their teams a fight- ing chance is by running up the score. In doing this they assure themselves favorable responses (i.e. higher ranking). In a business sense this is all fine and dandy when big money is on the line, but what about those higher standards of simply being a good sport and saying enough is enough? The solutions are pretty simple when it comes to handling these two problems. The first solution is for the NCAA to reform the bowl situation. Step number one is the toughest Tell the Pac 10 and the Big 10 that they no longer have the option to go wherever they want. This will put everyone back in the same race. Step number two is to take the top four teams and have them play the week after the regular season is over. This will still fall before exams and keep university presidents, con- cerned about academic schedules happy. The winners of these two games will then go to the highest bidding bowl to play for the title. The two losing teams can play for third in the number two bowl. The bids for the bowls' payoffs will be due at the beginning of the season so that plans can be made accordingly. With the rewards of championship games being offered to the highest bidder, the corporate investment will skyrocket and so will payoffs. With most conferences hav- ing a distribution clause that re- quires their schools to share the money, the take in many schools will benefit. Students stand to benefit because with more money coming in their fees stand to be offset. The second solution is to wait until Monday for the pollsters to place their votes. This would give the voters a chance to research their decisions a little mo-e and allow for more validity. This also allows top contention teams to have the oppor- tunity to let some of their younger players get some play time without being penalized in the polls for not running up the score. Let them play with a little good sportsmanship while in college. There is plenty of time for the other side of the coin in the pros. Down with Wal-Mart To the Editor: Global Transpark's suggestion that ECU implement a School of En- gineering shows keen appreciation of the critical resources that future development of Eastern NC requires. A School of Engineering can well have an impact of similar magnitude to that of the ECU School of Medi- cine. As in medicine, a distinguished engineering faculty and related re- search will lay the foundation for a host of area high tech activities. No other ECU programs have this po- tential. Several Piedmont schools cur- rently control engineering education in North Carolina, and will surely op- pose an engineering school here. They, and those controlled by them, will tell us North Carolina doesn't need another engineering school Greenville is too remote there is no local support, etc. The same chorus was raised against the medical school vision of Dr. Leo Jenkins and other local leaders. The naysayers have been proven wrong - the ECU School of Medicine is a national standout pro- viding major services to the region! So, too, can be the School of Engi- neering. As CEO of a fast-growing high tech engineering group in Greenville, 1 know how hard we have to work to attract qualified engineers to the area. We must compete with the campus related engineering resources of the Raleigh-Durham area. Eastern NC risks becoming a technology backwa- ter without these resources. From my perspective as a direc- tor of the National Association of Radio and Telecommunications Engi- neers, I know about the huge short- age of engineers to supports the wire- less communications revolution now underway, and substantial shortages in other areas as well. Now is the time for local leader- ship to grasp the initiative and press forward with School of Engineering support for the future good of Greenville and all of Eastern NO Lawrence Behr Chief Executive Officer LBA Group, Inc. As many readers know by now, when I get an idea stuck in my head, it is best to just ride it out and listen to what I have to say. Today's article is on Wal-Mart. That store over on the other side of Greenville that seems to be competitively knocking stores out of business. Perhaps there is some trance that fixates customers into believing that Wal-Mart will always be the best store to shop. I have news for you, it will not. When something seems too good to be true, then it probably is. Wal-Mart is the prime example of this cliche. Wal-Mart has racked up most of the purchases made by the ECU students lately. This is how I see it. Every time you go to shop at Wal-Mart, you save a few pennies here and there.Of course you are just a customer to them and your feelings are actually on their priority list, number 10. I have worked in the retail busi- ness before, and I know that cus- tomer satisfaction should always be the number one priority. When deal- ing with a store as large as this one, there is usually no interaction be- tween employees and the customers. The little interaction there is happens to be when a customer asks for help and the employee looks far off into a realm that only they can see and says. "Uh I think it's on aisle three, or perhaps four, I know it can't be any further than five Yeah, this is where I want to do my shopping. Sure by shopping at other stores I may lose a few pen- nies, but I know in my heart that the difference also pays for the quality of service I receive from these smaller Brian Lewis Burns Opinion Columnist Sure by shopping at other stores I may lose a few pennies. stores. What is going to happen is that as soon as Wal-Mart has taken over most industries in Greenville, the prices will go up and now we, the con- sumers, will have no choice but to continue to shop there. If you do not believe me, then ask yourself, "Where is Roses?" You sure won't find one in Greenville, or in most other areas. Roses was one of the first big victims to fall prey to Wal-Mart. It is already happening and it will get worse. Wal-Mart is not only trying to control the retail indus- tries, they now have moved into the food chains and the beauty salons. If you get hungry at 3 a.m. and hap- pen to be shopping at the aforemen- tioned store, all your fears can go away, because they now are a gro- cery store as well. I know you must be saying to yourself, "But when I go shopping for all my necessities and my grocer- ies, when will I have the time to get my hair cut Fear not, you can also have your hair cut, styled or what- ever at this store. All these things may sound great now, but what about the fu- ture when the idea of a monopoly will be an everyday occurrence, and price comparison will be a thought of yesterday. Monopolies are illegal in this country for the mere fact that to control a market with prices is an unfair business practice. Well, Wal- Mart has found its way around that. There would obviously be no need for this practice if there is simply no competition, right? Once all of Wal-Mart's competitors have been eliminated from this planet, the prices will rise, the hatred towards this form of business will rise and the only thing that will fall will be the little respect that residents have for that store. There are two solutions to this problem, one - to boycott the store and give your business to stores who care about you, the customer, and are willing to help you. Or, two - try to write letters to the heads of this company and express your con- cerns about how area businesses are being put out of business due to their practices and that you do not wish to become a slave to their prices. The decision is up to you, the reader. 1, on the other hand, have become quite accustomed to the words, "Blue light special and will continue to do so until I see that the other store learns how to exer- cise good business practices and begins to care about me, the -us- tomer. i ' Thursday, November 2, 1995 The East Carolinian 'l"KIfed SPARE TIME SPARE TIME PRETE 9 BY ANDY FARKAS lrCcMrij !$& ?&' rtcSGRcwNS A y?Asr J JHFECTIOH. 1 JP Thursday, November 2, 1995 The East Carolinian LIFe Visit The Second City ?

Follow up that intellec- tually stimulating event by going to (dramatic pause) a downtown dance club and dance, dance, dancing the night away. Tired of the same tired old rou- tine every weekend? It seems a couple of downtown club owners were, too. While the vast majority of stu- dents were at home on Fall Break, busily convincing their parents that the semester was going great and ev- erything was running smoothly, it was open mic weekend downtown. Both the Attic and Peasant's have had their fair shares of bigger name bands in the last few weeks, but this weekend was set aside for the locals. And in this corner, the defend- ing local heavyweight champions at Peasant's to defend their title - The Unsound. The lights slowly went down in- side Peasant's and anxious locals be- came giddy as Unsound prepared themselves for yet another vivacious Greenville appearance. Though the band initially had a few soundboard problems, the kinks worked them- selves out by 12:30 a.m. and the quar- tet was ready to slug it out. Just like the three other Unsound shows I've attended, the small but mighty legion of Unsound fans and friends packed themselves into a downtown club to mosh it up and get a little crazy. Several people gathered directly in front of the stage prepar- ing themselves for the pit. The lead vocalist, known to all only as Mark, grabbed the mic and the band ripped into their opening song. The crowd became enthused quickly. Before the band finished their third song, Unsound had to slow the set down.

Only you and your idiotic HoUywood friends haven't read The Scarlet Letter. The people behind the film version of Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel try to cover their butts by stating in the opening credits that the movie is "freely based" on the book. Hell, if you're going to be this free with a text, then why don't you just cast Sylvester Stallone as Dimmesdale, Richard Roundtree as Chillingworth and Suzanne Sommers as Hester Pryne. 1 would love to believe that Roland Joffe's Scarlet Utter is a revisionist adaptation of a clas- sic work, but "re-vision" requires vision to begin with. Joffe and scriptwriter Douglas Day Stewart both need some very thick glasses. Almost anyone who went through high school at least knows the story of Hester and her illegitimate child, Pearl. If you haven't read the book, don't trust the film. If you want to con- sider the film on its own as a film, it's still pathetic. Stewart's script is filled with all those things Hawthorne intentionally left out, or never even consid- ered. Such things include Hester drooling over Dimmesdale's bare ass as he skinny dips; Hester's female slave secretly watching Hester bathe herself; a satanic red canary that looks like a muppet when it flies; and sex in corn juxtaposed with candle mas- turbation in a tub. As for Joffe, the man needs to retake some film classes. He See LETTER page 9 Photo Courtesy ECU Student Activities Ladies and gentlemen presenting the future of comedy! The Second City comedy troupe, which has spawned numerous stars, will be performing at Wright Auditorium on Nov. 7. Sarah Wahlert Staff Writer Authority figures beware! The Second City comedy troupe is com- ing to ECU. This historically influential com- edy gang hails from Chicago afid started way back in 1959. Soon after the club first opened, it became a "must see" for everyone around. The Second City features around six or seven actors on average who perform comedy sketches that are planned and improvisational. First originated in 1951 by Paul Sills and David Sheperd, the ensemble has al- ways poked fun at the political, social and cultural aspects of the time. After word got around, the com- pany opened branches in New York, and later London and Toronto. A 10- week tour of campuses followed, in- cluding cities like Detroit, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Boston, Pitts- burgh, St Louis and New Haven. Tele- vision came next, and The Second City became an institution. Many famous actors once dis- played their talents in The Second City, including Dan Ackroyd, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray, John Candy, Martin Short, Rick Moranis, Chris Farley, Mike Myers, George Wendt and Julia Louis- Dreyfus. Pat McCartney spoke to TEC in a recent phone interview, and we got the chance to ask some burning ques- tions about The Second City. What made the success of The Second Ctiy possible? "The Second City was invented to satirize the political situations of the time McCartney said. "There was a lack of comedy clubs in the Chicago area at that time too, and the anti- authoritarian attitude of the troupe appealed to many people. "People want to see their true and hidden feelings acted out for them. There is an intelligence behind the satire that makes it thought pro- voking as well as funny. Laughter is universal McCartney describes the type of comedy performed by The Second City as "mostly satire and political material, but we also include the ab- surd and Python-esque types of stuff How does the process of getting the material together work? "We do a lot of touring McCartney said, "so most of our ideas come from being in a van together, entertaining each other. Of course we always include "best of" material. "Right now we're reestablishing ourselves as the center for satire. The keys are talent and point of view. We are also getting a lot harder and stron- ger with all the Generation X anger Students who go to see The Sec- ond City, according to McCartney, can expect "to laugh, to see some great improv, and to think a little bit. Hu- mor is very important, especially be- cause of the people in charge and our situation; for example, the Christian Right and Unemployment. But of course it has to be smart humor The Second City will be at Wright Auditorium on Nov. 7 as part of the "An Evening With series. Tickets are $4 for students, $7 for faculty staff, $10 for the general public, and $12 at the door. Come see some great comedy, sit back and just laugh. CD. Reviews U Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor The Dead Milkmen Stoney's Extra Stout (Pi3) Long ago and far away, when I was first getting into alternative mu- sic (back when that term meant something), I discovered the Dead Milkmen. They were weird, funny and just a touch angry. "This I thought, "was written for me They became my favorite band, and held that spot for a long time. Now, eight years and five al- bums later, they're calling it quits. The final Dead Milkmen album, Stoney's Extra Stout (Pig), was re- leased last week. And boy, am I de- pressed. Stoney's isn't the Milkmen's best work, but it's a far cry better than than their last couple of efforts (the weakest of their career). They seem to have lost some of their vi- tality in recent years, which is prob- ably why they're breaking up. Still, this new album hearkens back to The Dead Milkmen at their height, and it's a good farewell for the mas- ters of kiddie punk. The Dead Milkmen have devel- oped a style all their own over the years. Musically, it's fairly simple fare; they tend toward guitar pop melodies. But they play those melo- dies slightly off-key, producing a sound that well, it doesn't exactly sound good, but it's at least unusual. It's not for everybody, but if you feel the call of the Milkmen as I have from the moment 1 first heard them, you'll understand their appeal. Things get off to a good start with "Peter Bazooka a spoken See PIG page 9 Pippi Longstocking WWfote Baywatch offers bad TV challenge Every paper has a TV critic but our critic is no normal couch potato, no mere 7V Junkie.

So, we have this new assignment for you I steeled up, ready for the blow. "We the editor said, "would like you to review 'Baywatch Aha! So the die had been cast, the gauntlet thrown. I was up to this challenge. In fact, though I didn't tell him this, I have caught a couple of full episodes of "Baywatch I had my finger on the pulse of this inter- national hit, watched by more people than any other show in history. I was completely aware of the show's star and co-producer, David Hasselhoff, and how he is revered in Europe. Not that I've ever really watched the show. However, the few times I've caught it, the basic plot formats can break down into these three sce- narios. First, there is some environ- mental problem threatening the beach that puts people in jeopardy (offshore drilling, erosion, what- ever). Second, Mitch (Hasselhoff) and Co. get to use some new-fangled lifeguard toy (an episode I remem- ber featured a hovercraftjet ski thing) to save the world. Before they can do this, though, there is a seven- minute music video-style masturba- tory scene where all characters in- volved get to take their new toy on a "test run" and examine its sleek body styling and contours Third, is the character subplot of the week, attempting to show the audience, "Hey! These hunky guys and gals have a life outside of the beach Not that I've ever really watched the show. Anyway, the episode in particu- lar I decided to watch and review for this assignment featured a re- union of the Beach Boys - with Brian Wilson! To all those unfamil- iar, the story goes that Boys founder and songwriter Brian Wilson de- cided to quit the band and. more or less, lie in bed and sleep for a year. In fact, Wilson hasn't been heard of much at all until this last year when he put out an autobiography. So, there they were, all of the Beach Boys, except the drummer who died and was replaced with John Stamos from "Full House I was rather in- terested to see how this episode would pan out. The environmental issue of the hour was bacteria in the water, brought to everyone's attention by the Surfrider Foundation, an envi- ronmental group spearheaded by Hasselhoff. The Beach Boys figure in when they are asked by Mitch to play a benefit concert to correct the problem. This is a noble cause and okay storyline, except that every third line from a character's mouth is wordy exposition that sounds as if they're reading from the back of a brochure. The scripts for this show are pretty threadbare, but this is scary. Skipping the second step in above formula for now, we come to the personal subplots. In this epi- sode, the subplots really blew. They hinged on a past love of Stephanie's (Alexandra Paul) who was a bad boy, now gone worldly-conscious after joining Surfrider. This was particu- larly embarrassing to watch because Paul normally serves as the show's anti-bimbo, intelligent character. Also, there was some bit with Caroline (Yasmine Bleeth), insanely jealous over studboy Cody (David Chokachi) and bad girl Neely (Gena Lee Nolin) that was just plain silly. "Faust" this isn't. Coming back to the second part, the masturbatory music video sequences, this episode was chock- full of them - except they didn't fea- ture cool lifeguard gadgetry. No, this time it was just hard, tanned, barely- clothed bodies. You see, you've got the Beach Boys, so you have to play as many of their tunes to half-na- ked, wiggling-in-s!ow-mo bodies as possible. Right? This episode plays six complete Boys tunes in its 45 minute running time, four of which are purely music videos that have nothing to do with a plot whatso- ever. Hasselhoff has repeatedly scoffed at the press calling his show "Babewatch stating that a series that takes place on the beach will certainly have a lot of barely-covered bodies. Uh-huh. Say, David, how come your opening credits feature four breast shots, six butt shots, and a whopping ten shots of hardbodies running in slow-mo, the camera ogling all their curves? Not that I've ever really watched the show. To sum up, 1 believe I have proved my worthiness as your TV Whore. "Baywatch" is an embarrass- ment to television, punctuated with non-existent plots and beautiful people. It is not even remotely as entertaining as "Melrose Place which features the same elements. My advice is, if you want to stare at male and female bodies mostly na- ked in slow-mo without a lot of "plot" to get in the way, either rent a porno or watch "Kiana's Flex Ap- peal" on ESPN like any respectable citizen. Not that I've ever really watched that show, either. On a scale of one to ten, "Baywatch" rates a one. this week's topic: Horror Movies 1. Bela Lugosi played Dracula only twice.

SeeCet Shorty for intelligent pacing, Seven for intriguing subtleties, and Dead Presidents for dynamic visu- als. A scene where Hester inspires Reverend Dimmesdale (profession- ally played by Gary Oldman) to de- liver a fiery religious sermon to his congregation could have been good Unfortunately. Joffe gets "artsy' by superimposing Hester's glamor ous image next to Dimmesdale's im passioned countenance. The scene poignant in its own right, might work well on his resume if he ever has to apply for a job at MTV. During this scene, I finally lost faith in the film and those involved FACT: 10 percent of air pollution is generated by operating lawn and garden equip- ment. TIP: Use an electric mower.

Then, to my glee, a good friend of mine handed me a box of Milk Duds. Those soft, sweet sugar balls re- freshed me and gave me incentive to stay in the theater. So, I endured. I endured Demi Moore struggling to meet the de- mands of her role. Instead of a scar- let "A Demi should have worn a sign that read, "Please take me seri- ously. I am a dramatic actress Demi, Lee Van Cleef outacted you in Master Ninja. You're only going to seem silly when you're pitted against the likes of Joan Plowright, who plays the devilish Mistress Hibbins. Furthermore, I endured Chillingworth (Robert Duvall) being reduced to a vengeful husband who dresses like an Indian and shaves his belly. I endured a painful voice-over narration from an adult Pearl, who tells us that the Puritan community tried to destroy her parents' true love. 1 endured Demi telling us, the ignorant audience, that a repressive society cannot extinguish the flames of passion and the fire of true love. I thought 1 was going to be sick. Fortunately, those sweet Milk Duds eased my stomach. I don't fault Demi for taking on this role. I even admire her ambition to face such a challenge. I, however, do not forgive Joffe. By publicly stating that Hawthorne's novel, which he called a "badly thought-out polemic against adultery was only "gather- ing dust on the shelves Joffe set himself up for criticism. He may have had some higher purpose stuck in his head when he literally rewrote Hawthorne's story, but the presentation of his purpose isn't worthy of a Kate Jackson TV movie. Hawthorne did not actually show us sex, but sexual tension runs throughout his work. Joffe shows us sex. Why not? Sex sells. But Joffe needs to watch77je Piano again to understand eroticism. I bet I looked more erotic picking Milk Duds from my teeth than Hester and Dimmesdale did rolling around in the barn. Man, those Milk Duds were good. The Puritan community placed all the blame on Hester for sinning against God. I place all the blame on Joffe for sinning against Hawthorne and anyone who spent money on this bloated project. As far as I'm concerned, Joffe should be forced to wear his own scarlet letter for the rest of his career. I thought about being kinder toThe Scarlet Letter, but no! The gloves come off! If you play with fire, you're gonna get burned! On a scale of one to 10, The Scarlet Letter gets nothing! It rates a zero! My Milk Duds, however, rate a tasty 10.

Later, the Milkmen give us an honest-to-God love song, "I'm Flying Away This song's simple and straightforward lyrics are a bit of a departure for this band, reknowned for their cynicism and evil wit (many older critics simply call them "bratty"). It's a little jarring to hear stuff like, "Absense makes the heart grow fond But I can't take it any longer coming out of the mouths of the men who recorded "If You Love Somebody, Set Them on Fire But there it is. I'm not sure I like this song, but it is sweet and hon- est; it makes me wonder if I haven't become too hip and detached for my own good. One of the big highlights of Stoney's is "The Blues Song Both an homage to and a nasty jab at the blues, this tune is complex and funny. "The blues isn't an art form Anonymous shouts, "The blues is a product, not unlike computer chips or tampons. The blues is a way for white kids to feel that they under- stand the feelings of black people without ever actually having to meet any. The blues is all these things and more, available for only $19.95 Though bitingly cynical, "The Blues Song" also manages to cap- ture the raw, bloody-throated feel of real blues. Slick blues rockers like Blues Traveler owe more to Stevie Ray Vaughn than Muddy Waters, but the Milkmen give us the real thing here. The Dead Milkmen's best mate- rial was released on Beelzebubba and Metaphysical Grafitti (two of the best albums recorded by any band, ever). On those albums, they explored bizarre ideas in complex songs with a little philosophical meat on their bones. On Stoney's. those glory days are represented by "The Man Who Rides the Bus In the former song, we're introduced to a very impor- tant person. As Anonymous croons with backing vocalists Dean Clean and Joe Jack Talcum, "The man who rules the world travels on the bus, staring out the window making things happen It's a great image: this sad little man sitting lonely on a bus, riding around the city affect- ing the outcome of everything around him. Even if he's just a mad- man, it doesn't matter: in fact, that might even make it better. "Big Deal the last song on the album, is as good a farewell as the Dead Milkmen could have given us, summing up their whole musical ca- reer in one three-minute song. 1 leave you with their words. "Life sucks And then you die Your sou! gets sucked into the sky The birds sing I wonder why You eat a bowl of cereal and sigh Big deal UNSOUND from page 7 moshers knocked down a few on-stage audio monitors and a few beers were spilled on their equipment They slowed down, dead silent, for fifteen seconds, then exploded back into their set with "Raike It's the one released song for admirable Greenville natives who need Unsound in the privacy of their own homes in- stead of live downtown. Recorded'music is all fine and good, but you've got to see these musicians live to fully appreciate the kind of show they produce. You need to get a little sweaty and thrash around. It's nothing evil, but I got out all my aggressions out and didn't een get arrested for it. Yes, the normally tranquil check- erboard floors at Peasant's were jam packed with, as Mark put it, "people who were also stuck in Greenville over Fall Break Unsound once again successfully defended their heavyweight title. They ended the show at about 1:45 a.m after a 90-minute set When it was time to leave, there was a subtle feel- ing of satisfaction amongst the angst- ridden crowd. Peasant's was the place to be Saturday night. No one in Greenville had a better time than Unsound crowd.

ECU will face Army for the first time in history on Saturday at West Point. Looking at the schedule at the be- ginning of the year, any fan would tell you that the Army game would be an automatic win. Now, going into week 10 of the foot- ball season, that is not the case. The Cadets' powerful wishbone offense has tallied 2,632 yards on the ground this year, and averages 66 rushes per game. It is an offense that ECU Head Football Coach Steve Logan says that no one has been able to stop so far this sea- son. "The defining thing about Army is that they have run the wishbone all year long and they have six total turnovers Logan said. "They're not going to beat themselves Army's offensive at- tack ranks second na- tionally, just behind Ne- braska. The Cadets aver- age 359.4 yards on the ground per game and are number seven in the nation in turn- over margin. The Black Knights are at 11 for the year in turnovers, forcing 17 and giving up six. "The defining thing about Army is that they have run the wishbone all year long and they have six total turnovers" ? Coach Logan Army has ranked in the top 10 nationally in rushing offense each season since installing the wish- bone in 1984. The wishbone backfield uti- lized by the Cadets employed 13 dif- ferent players in a 49-7 thumping of Boston College earlier this year, and 18 different ballcarriers in a 56- 14 rout of Colgate last week. "They've always got one mid- line fullback from which the offense emanates Logan said, it's just a mess. The Boston College kids - lit- erally, on one piece of film, 10 play- ers tackled the fullback while the half back was in the end zone with the ball. It's frightening. Our de- fensive players have never seen any- thing like this Army's wishbone attack is also designed to eat the clock. The Ca- dets have dominated the time of possession in every outing this sea- son, holding a nine-minute advan- tage over their opponents. "We've got to go score points See ARMY page 13 Youth key to golf team success Underclassmen lead golf team toward future Dill Dillard Staff Writer In building and maintaining a strong program of any sorts, young talent must step up to keep the fu- ture bright for the program. If this is the case, then things are looking good for ECU'S golf team. The Pirates returned home after finishing 13th in a field of 20 teams at the Old Dominion Seascape Clas- sic on Tuesday. The Bucs shot their way into the 13th position at the clo- sure of the first round of the two round tournament with a team score of 303. The Pirates first round effort was led by the youth of the program placing three underclassmen in the Pirate's top five scores at the end of both rounds of play. Sophomore Kevin Williams led the team in the first round, shooting an impressive 72 which is an even par. Along with Miller, freshman Daniel Griffis and sophomore Scott Campbell worked the r way into ECU's top five perform- ers. "We were excited that some of our kids played well despite their lack of experience said first year coach Kevin Williams after the opening round. The Pirate youngsters performed above expectations registering mid to high 70 stroke rounds including Miller's tie for 12th place in the indi- vidual standings going into the finial round. "This is the first time that they were able to compete in a major tour- nament, and they played great Will- iams added. This growing experience for the young Pirate squad included match- ups with top area golf programs like UNC- Creensboro, UNC-Charlotte, and fellow CAA member Old Dominion. In the final day of competition, it was the Spartans of UNC-Greens- boro who stole the show as well as the team championship. The Spartans led the whole way finishing with a score of 571 ahead of UNC-Charlotte and host team Old Dominion. The Pirates game improved ever so slightly from their previous perfor- mance, only shaving two strokes from their first round score. This slight improvement, however allowed ECU to finish 13th in the team standings in front of CAA opponent American as well as the Old Dominion two squad. Stepping up for the Pirates in the final round of the tournament was senior leader Brent Padrick. Padrick went into the final round four strokes behind Miller, but im- proved six strokes to lead the team in the final standings and move into a tie for 21st in the individual race. The Bucs' first round "Young Guns" also turned in a solid final round of golf with Miller, Campbell and Griffis finishing as three of the top five on the Pirate team. William's hackers will travel south to Summerville, S.C. for the Charleston Southern Invitational at Pine Forest Country Club, Nov. 13- 14. The two round contest will be the Bucs' final match before what could be a promising spring season.

"Super Ho's" compete in invitational David Gaskins Rec Services "Guts & Glory" from NC State soundly defeated "Sigma Nu" of UNC- W 44-7 to win the championship game of the first North Carolina Collegiate Flag Football Tournament hosted at UNC-Chapel Hill over the weekend of Oct 27-29. Teams from UNC-Chapel Hill won the Women's and Co-Rec titles. A to- tal of 18 teams participated in the three divisions. ECU's championship team, the "Super Ho's participated in the tour- nament as well and completed the round-robin phase of the tourney un- defeated, receiving a bye in the first round. Derrick Harris, Rodney Young and Chris Pressley dominated play in 18-0 and 33-6 victories over the UNC- Chapel Hill "BS Maniacs" and Shaw University respectively. However, in the first round of the playoffs, they were upset 14-12 by the UNC-Chapel Hiil "Tortfessors" and eliminated from the event. Young and David Campbell scored touchdowns in the loss with a valiant comeback but fell short on the final play. After Campbell's touchdown with 1:27 re- maining, the defense held and forced a punt by utilizing their time-outs. The "Ho's" got the ball back with one sec- ond remaining and QB Daniel Finn lofted a long pass down the middle of the field which was caught by Matt Snyder. Snyder was downed short of the goal line but a holding penalty on the runner moved the ball to the 3- yard line and gave the "Ho's" one more untimed down. The last play misfired, however, and the game ended. ECU was also represented by a strong contingent of flag football of- ficials who were recognized for their outstanding performance. Eighteen officials worked the event represent- ing six different institutions (ECU, UNC-W, Appalachian State, NCSU, UNC-Chapel Hill and UNC-G). ECU's Steve Roberson, Chris Nunn, Kevin Hinnant and Russell Duvall all re- ceived championship game assign- ments while Nunn, Hinnant and Duvall were recognized among the six officials selected as All-Tournament. These four individuals will also travel to another intramural event on the weekend of Nov. 17-19 in an attempt to qualify for an invitation to the na- tional invitational flag football tour- ney in New Orleans. Volleyball team suffers defeat Avram Klein Staff Writer Whether it was the curse of the ghost-net or the angry spirits of the women's volleyball team whose bus exploded back in '63, Halloween dealt an evil hand to the Lady Pirates. Their last home game of the season was their shortest and most disappointing. ECU, who is now (15-13) for the sea- son, lost to UNC Greensboro (21-3) in three straight sets of 15-9, 15-8 and 15-7. As the regular Williams Arena fans tried to keep their heads up and remember the victories of past matches, the Pirates struggled throughout the night. ECU slammed a flickering 23 kills, which was nearly matched in committed errors. Al- though the team locked down their serves and seemed to work with the usual fluid teamwork that they are known for, their errors and lack of effective attacks hurt them. The Pi- rates went into the match with a .207 team attack percentage, but ony hit .010. The ECU squad was lead by Car- rie Brne who iced 12 kills and 15 digs. ECU senior Tara Venn, led the squad with four total blocks. Over the net, Venn blocked one attack solo style and assisted in the other three. Fresh- man Kristin Warner, helped straighten the Pirate's backbone with 17 assists and added 10 digs and three block assists. Halloween was the last home match for the team captain Melanie Richards from West Henrietta, N.Y. as well as co-captain Kristy Blair form Woodbridge, Va Tara Venn from Hendersonville, N.Y. and Gwynn Baber from Scottsville, Va. Kim Walker, Head Coach for the Lady Pirates of ECU, was visibly dis- pleased after the game which quickly dissolved into an empty coliseum. The team was not much for words and ex- ited to their locker room. "We didn't play well at all tonight" Walker explained. "Now we need to get back to playing the way we are capable of playing and prepare for this weekend's tourney and the rest of our schedule, since the remainder of our matches are on the road The Lady Pirates travel to Annapo- lis, Md. this weekend for the Navy Invi- tational, beginning on Friday, Nov. 3. Mourning, Hornets still negotiating CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The Charlotte Hornets were hoping the upcoming season would be when they finally became one of the NBA's best teams. What they didn't plan on was it being the year they lost their best player. Alonzo Mourning, the 6-foot-10 center who last season led the Hor- nets in scoring, rebounding, blocks and field-goal percentage, is locked in a contract squabble that could lead to him being traded. As Charlotte approaches its sea- son opener Friday night against the Chicago Bulls, Mourning and the Hornets remain S3 million apart on the question of his annual salary. Various reports have Charlotte talking with up to eight teams about the services of Mourning, who is due to make $4.35 million this season, his fourth in the league and the last under his current contract. The Hornets are said to have of- fered Mourning a seven-year, $70 million deal; he is said to want $91 million for seven seasons with an es- cape clause after four seasons. One report also said he wants a share in the ownership of the Charlotte Coli- seum. It's not the kind of distraction a team wants when it's coming off a franchise-record 50-victory season and has made what it believes are several offseason acquisitions that will strengthen the club. Manage- ment has talked optimistically about going to the next level with the 7- year-old franchise, which has yet to advance past the second round of the playoffs. "This is something for he and management to try to work out re- serve center Robert Parish said Tuesday after the Hornets worked out at their practice complex in neighboring Fort Mill, S.C. "We've got to stay focused and not worry about the business part of it Parish and the rest of the Hor- nets seemed somber as they walked out of the gym and into a cold rain on the way to their cars. "We'd really hate to see him go forward Scott Burrell said, shaking his head. "He's upbeat guard Kendall Gill said. "He doesn't like the possi- bility of leaving, but he knows that in this business, there's always the possibility of that happening Mourning wasn't speaking to re- porters, who staged a 3 12-hour vigil after practice. He enlisted the aid of two team employees to twice switch the location of his sport util- ity vehicle so he could get away from the sprawling facility without being confronted by the media. Mourning, an NBA all-star se- lection in each of the last two sea- sons, is revered in Charlotte. A huge likeness of him is painted on the side of a building in uptown Charlotte, and jerseys with his number 33 are one of the team's most popular sou- venirs. But the Hornets, for whom Mourning has averaged at least 21 points a game each season since they took him with the second pick in the 1992 draft, didn't sound cer- tain Tuesday that he would remain with the franchise. "We're still trying to work things out. We're trying to get there said Bob Bass, Charlotte's vice president for basketball opera- tions. Bass said the team had been in contact this week with David Falk, Mourning's agent. "I really don't know whether there will be another meeting or when it will be Bass said. Messages left by The Associated Press at Falk's office were not re- turned. Charlotte, already saddled with Larry Johnson's $84 million contract, has been talking with teams for sev- eral weeks about trading Mourning. One possibility has Mourning going to the Los Angeles Lakers for 7-1 center Vlade Divac, another player and a first-round draft pick. Also said to be under serious consid- eration is a deal with Boston 7-0 cen- ter Eric Montross, another player and two first-round draft picks, or send- ing Mourning to Portland for point guard Rod Strickland and possibly forward Cliff Robinson. Parish, a member of three NBA championship teams while with the Celtics, said the Hornets face a tough road trying to win a title without Mourning. "You just don't replace Alonzo Mourning he said. "They don't come along very often .? ?jr"HinUi V j III. IIWHI.I The East Carolinian Thursday, November 2, 1995 13 Harris f feeler WlLUE ftflCED Low! Assorted Cereals 0 YslaCQ.

Army suffered last minute losses to Duke. Washington and Notre Dame while tying Rice on the final play. Four out of seven of Army's games have been decided by a total of 11 points. The Pirates enter the game riding the momentum created by last week's win at Southern Miss. ECU quarterback Marcus Crandell was named both the ECAC and Con- ference ISA Player of the Week for his performance against the Golden Eagles. Crandell completed 28 of 51 passes for 312 yards and three touchdowns, while rushing for 56 yards and an additional TD. "The resourcefulness that he displayed and the execution that was there was really a thing of beauty Logan said. "1 really like our quarterback. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I wouldn't trade him for anyone in the coun- try Crandell could overcome Pirate stand-out Jeff Blake as ECU's all- time career passing leader in Saturday's game at West Point. He needs just 244 yards to move ahead of Blake's 5,133 yard career total. Crandell currently has 4,890 yards, and has thrown for 587 of those yards in the past two games. Mitchell Galloway caught a ca- reer best nine passes against South- ern Miss for 106 yards, and leads the team in receptions with 36. Tight end Scott Richards had two of his three TD catches of the sea- son against USM. upping his recep- tion total of the year to 26 snags. ECU cornerback Emmanuel McDaniel recorded his sixth inter- ception of the season against the Golden Eagles, and it was the fifth consecutive game he's had a pick. Linebacker Mark Libiano had an interception of his own against USM. the third of his career. NO EDITORIAL BOARD MEETING TODAY. NEXT WEEK'S MEETING WILL BE HELD AT 4. . 'z?k 2 Itr.
