�C ���"�' November 9,1995 ; Vol71,No. 22 The East Carolinian Circulation 12,000 East Carolina University Greenville, N C 12 pases SGA opens purse to religious groups Around the State DURHAM (AP) - A woman identified in a lawsuit only as "Rosie J is challenging the Legislature's decision making it difficult to receive money from the state abortion fund for the procedure. Lawmakers approved a bill this year that cut funding for the fund - designed for low-in- come women - from $1.2 mil- lion to $50,000. Money now is only available for those ineli- gible for Medicaid and only in cases of rape or incest or when the life of a mother is in dan- ger. HATTERAS, N.C. (AP) - While other museums close or scale back, the determined resi- dents of Hatteras Island will break ground soon on a new museum dedicated to the his- tory buried in the rough seas off their coast. Construction begins this winter on the 15,000-square- foot Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, to be located near the ferry slip here. Village residents have been working for a decade for the museum, which will dis- play artifacts from shipwrecks, photographs and panels that tell the deadly history of the Outer Banks. Around the Country Committee follows Rosenburg ruling in allowing funds Wendy Houston Staff Writer After approximately five weeks, the decision to change the funding guidelines for religious groups on campus passed with the Student Gov- ernment Association's (SGA) approval. "It is in all fairness to approve funding for all religious groups said Johnathan Phillips, the Rules and Ju- diciary Committee chair for (SGA). The announcement was brief and went over well with listeners during the SGA meeting of Monday, Nov. 6. "There is a total of seven com- mittee members on the committee that help with the decision-making Phillips said in an interview after the SGA meeting. Also, three administrative offi- cials were present throughout the meetings: Betsy Bunning, head attor- ney for all North Carolina Universi- ties; Ben Irons, attorney for ECU and Dr. Alfred Matthews, vice chancellor for student life. "We changed the policy because it stated a question of separation be- tween the church and state. But the money SGA uses for funding is not state funded money. It is raised and distributed to the students by the stu- dents Phillips said. Phillips said he thought ECU was the first university in North Carolina to adopt the ruling that approves reli- gious funding. He also said that other schools should soon be following in the refunding process. The Rosenburg Act and a memo received from Bunning were the only material tools used. The committee was completely in charge and on their own with reaching their decision. The Rosenburg Act was a case at the University of Virginia in which a religious group sought funding for their newspaper Spread the Gospel. Cadets sprint to honor Holly Hagey Staff Writer In recognition of Veteran's Day, the Amry ROTC will be hosting their second annual Run For Honor. This event is held by the cadet corps to show honor and respect for local vet- erans and to promote Veteran's Day. The Run For Honor is a 36-mile run Beginning off of First Street at the Town Commons to Barnes El- ementary School in Wilson, where cadets will be shuttled to the Wilson chapter Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW). This is the second year the event has been held, and it is a means of showing respect and gratitude to local chapters of the VFW and Ameri- can Legion and to other retired vet- eran associations. "We have a lot of veterans in the (ROTC) program said Cadet Ellis Baker. "This is our way of showing them we stili think about them Cadets volunteer for this event and run three mile legs at a time as they are followed by a convoy. Even though cadets are not required to run more than three miles, most cadets run as much during the event as pos- sible. "It was a lot of fun last year said Cadet Scott Coffey. "We did it to show respect for the veterans. 1 think it was a lot of fun for us to get out there as well as a good moral booster for the program The Run For Honor will kick off at 2:30 p.m. at the Town Commons with guest speaker Lieutenant Colo- nel DeVoe who will be delivering a speech in recognition of Veteran's Day. Mayor Nancy Jenkins will also be at the Town Commons as a digni- tary. The 36-mile run will begin at 3 p.m. Another activity the ROTC will participate in over the weekend is the presenting of colors at the local VFW in Greenville on Saturday. The Ameri- can flag and Pershing rifles will be presented and a dinner will be held afterwards. There will also be a presentation of colors at the football game on Sat- urday and an air display of F-16 planes flying over the stadium from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. There will be many different military organiza- tions on campus for both of these events, which are being held as a pro- motion of Veteran's Day. Local veterans and any members of the community are encouraged and welcome to attend the events taking place at the Town Commons on Fri- day. Any veteran who is interested in participating in the run is encouraged to call the ROTC office at 328-6967 for more information. Pirates on the Street It was denied funding, so the group sued under an argument for the free- dom of speech. The courts decided against the school, and in recognition of the religious group's funding. "Religious groups are funded and go through the same process as any other organization on campus, but we cannot fund solely for religious pur- poses Phillips said. "They are eligible to apply for funding of conventions, retreats and things of that sort. "All in all. funding religious groups is the right thing to do Would you pefer a print yearbook, video yearbook or both?

(AP) � Two new drugs should be ap- proved to help increase the ef- fectiveness of existing AIDS medications, government scien- tists say. Scientific advisers to the Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday that saquinavir, the first of a long-anticipated new class of AIDS drugs called protease inhibitors, should be approved even though it doesn't work very well. Around the World GISENYl, Rwanda (AP) - Government forces attacked Hutu militiamen on a tiny island in northwest Rwanda, killing as many as 171 in what the mili- tary called the heaviest fighting since last year's civil war. BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AP) - Bosnian Serbs Wednes- day released a U.S. reporter held captive for almost two weeks, saying it was a sign of goodwill towards peace negotia- tions under way in the United States. David Rohde of the Chris- tian Science Monitor was turned over to U.S. Embassy officials in Belgrade by Serbian security of- ficials, who mediated the release. Recently Joyner library celebrated another year of support from its spon- sors at the annual Friends of the Li- brary banquet where staff took the oc- casion to present the newest addition to its North Carolina Collection. As a gift from brothers Ed, Jim and Will Congleton, Joyner received an Audubon print entitled "Great Carolina Wren The three brothers donated the print in honor of their parents, James Beverly Congleton Jr. and Vera Williams Congleton who is a 1945 ECU gradu- ate. "We thought the banquet was a great opportunity to present the print said Joyner's North Carolina librarian, Maury York, adding that the university is fortunate to have the print According to York, very few com- plete sets of the Audubon prints remain intact today, and this newest addition is the only print of its kind in the li- brary. "The 'Great Carolina Wren' print was purchased as an individual, one of 435 published York said. "Audubon did a series of bird paintings and later did prints of them. The set was broken up at some point, and this one was purchased separately "Great Carolina Wren which shows two wrens perched on a dwarf horse chestnut and is framed with a hand-col- ored mat and birdseye maple, is plate No. 78 of the Robert Havell folio edition of Birds of America. Critics have said that the original from which the print was made is one of Audubon's finest works. York said the print should be of in- terest to students in the School of Art and in the department of biology. Al- though the print is not currently on dis- play, it will har.g in the reading room of the North Carolina Collection located on the third floor of the new addition to Joyner .

Wright III, junior "Both print and video � people love options J Photo by KEN CLARK These wrens will be on display in the North Carolina Collec- tion on the third floor of Joyner's new addition next Spring. "Unfortunately for anyone who wishes to view the print now York said. "It's in storage at the Greenville Museum of Art until March. The new wing in Joyner where the print will be displayed should be open right after Spring Break. York said efforts would be made to publicize the print widely next year when the construction on the library is com- pleted. "We want to get word out about the print so the campus community, school students and the public will be able to enjoy it and learn from it" York said. "The new print is a tangible reflection of the sources available to students in the North Carolina Collection. We hope to create an atmosphere that shows stu- dents there is more to libraries than books and computers Resident Advisors shake up conference Stephanie Eaton Staff Writer Students came from as far north as Virginia, as far south as Florida and as far west as Louisiana to ECU to shake, rattle and roll at the annual South Atlantic Affiliate of College and Universities Residence Halls (SAACAURH) conference. Over 727 people came to participate in the events held from Novem- ber third through the fifth.

Course gives freshman aid Holly Hagey Staff Writer Many transitions are necessary in order to adjust to life at college, not to mention the overwhelming amount of concerns about what di- rection your college career is headed in. This is especially true for first year students, and to help with this issue the Office of Undergraduate Degrees is again offering a fresh- man seminar course. For the past eight years ECU has offered a course involving ori- entating students to campus and helping them with direction and guidance. Previously this course has been known under a different name, but for the following semes- ter students can find this course under Counselor and Adult Educa- tion in the Spring registration booklet. This course not only orientates the student with campus and re- sources available, it also explores career choices, conducts student in- terest inventories and acts as a question and answer type class for any concerns students hold about the university. Another benefit of this course is that it helps walk students through the registration process, which can be a very confusing and frustrating experience for students, explains to them course choices and requirements for graduation. Six sections of the course will be available next Spring due to the addition of two new professors. Laura Eakins and Michelle Wixon. "I'm really excited because I love students and helping to guide them Eakins said. "The course is designed to give new college stu- dents confidence tc accomplish their goals. We're trying to avoid any discouragement during the first year and help to keep them pumped up Class sizes are usually around 20 to 25 and demonstrate a more personal environment where stu- dents can get to know their class- mates. The class acts as a support structure for students as well as of- fers practical and hands on experi- ence.

Speaker addresses issue, not hog wash Marguerite Benjamin Senior Writer Continuing with its tradition of confronting and presenting the timely issues that affect our community. The National Political Science Honor Society. Pi Sigma Alpha, will be sponsoring an informative speech which will explore the effects of hog farm waste in eastern North Caro- lina. On Thursday of this week. Dr. Clifton Knight of ECU's Depart- ment of Biology will be presenting an in-depth discussion of the politi- cal and social implications of hog farm waste in the state. According to Pi Sigma Alpha Vice President Keith Cooper, the organization continually seeks speakers who will present issues that are fundamental to the state and country. "1 have been tracking newspaper and television reports on this particular subject Cooper said. "I feel this is a good issue to explore since this has become such a serious problem in our state Cooper added that the issue of hog farm waste has been one sur- rounded by much controversy in politics.

"We feel like we're not being represented by the staff said NIL student Darryl Jones. "Instead of being a student paper for the stu- dents, the Northern Star has be- come a paper for the Northern Star staff NIL' students help subsidize the Sorthern Star by paying six cents per credit hour for the publication. and any one student's total contri- bution does not exceed 72 cents. Of- ficials from the cashier's office in- dicated that students who did not wish to allocate money toward the school paper would be credited on their next tuition bill. One NIL' student, however, has said he will pay for any fees the pa- per may lose. "I'd just really hate to see NIL' without a newspaper Jon Gilbertson said. "Even with all its faults, it's better than nothing Jones, who is a member of the student government, and other stu- dents said they are upset by the Star 4s editorial treatment of minorities. "When the stories are about Af- rican-American or other minority students, the stories only focus on one side of the issue Jones said. "The reporters show a lack of sensi- tivity when they write. The stories don't reflect what really happens Jones pointed to a recent flap over the homecoming king and queen as an example. "For years, photos of the king and queen ran on the front page Jones said. "But for the past few years, when there's been an African-American king and queen, their pictures aren't even in the paper But most frustrating of all. Jones said, is the lack of account- ability from the paper's staff. "There isn't anyone who's will- ing to take final responsibility for what gets printed Jones said. But Lesley Rogers, the paper's editor-in-chief, said the Xorthern Star's stories reflect what occurs on campus. "We print what happens Rogers said. "There's no misrepre- sentation or withholding of facts Still, Rogers said she's willing to hear the concerns of the students. "The Northern Star is the stu- dent newspaper Rogers said. "It's our objective to represent the stu- dents Shortly afte: the protest. Rogers and her staff participated in a forum to hear the concerns of stu- dents, many of whom brought up the homecoming photos. Ralph Argueta, the paper's photo editor, told students that no photos were taken of the king and queen because of a shortage of photographers to cover the event. Argueta's answer did little to satisfy junior Michelle Ivy. who ac- cused Star staffers of racism. "All I want is for nobody to put me down Ivy said. 'Everyone has their opinion. I'm entitled to my opinion as long as it doesn't offend or hurt anyone else Jones, who helped organize the forum, said the recent protest over the paper's content is not an issue of race or fairness. It's one of eco- nomics. "Contributing to the paper makes us consumers Jones said. "As a consumer. I'm not satisfied with the product, and 1 want my money back At the forum, some NIL stu- dents said they were willing to stage a sit-in if their concerns were not addressed. Last Spring, student pro- testers at DePaul University staged a 10-day sit-in at the school's stu- dent newspaper office to protest the paper's coverage of minority issues. Jones said he hopes a similar scenario doesn't happen at NIL. "We're trying to work this out in a productive way he said.

ONLY CPS - The U.S. House passed a budget-cutting bill on Oct. 26 that would eliminate the direct lending of student loans and end the six-month interest waiver for new graduates. The House budget bill, aimed at balancing the federal budget by 2002, calls for the elimination of direct lend- ing by June 30. 1996 and would im- mediately begin phasing college from the program. The direct lending pro- gram, which began at the start of the 1994 school year and has been cham- pioned by the Clinton administration, allows students to borrow federal stu- dent loan money directly through their colleges, bypassing banks and lending institutions. House Budget Committee Chair- man John Kasich (R-Ohio) said the cuts were not only necessary, but demanded by voters in the last election. "The people should understand that in seven years, we will in fact bal- ance the federal budget and save this country and save the next genera- tion Kasich said. "We've done our job Jeannette Galanis, president of the United States Student Associa- tion, disagrees. "They've taken effective pro- grams and cut them without any re- gard for what the students want Galanis said. "They are neglecting a large group of voters, and it could come back to haunt them Direct lending is popular on many campuses, where administrator say it has cut down on paperwork and stu- dents claim to receive loan money sooner.

"I expect Clinton to veto this O'Conner said. "1 used to have night- mares about getting my loans through my bank. It took forever. The last think 1 want to do is go back to the old way Clinton has already promised to veto the House's budget-cutting bill. Secretary of Education Richard Riley said it would be a mistake to eliminate the direct lending program. "We knew when President Clinton proposed this new loan op- tion, it would be popular with students and student aid administrators, and it is Riley said. "It's simple, with less paperwork. It improves cash flow by offering quicker turn around time for loan processing, and it improves ser- vices to students However. Mark Clayton, spokes- person for the Coalition For Student Loan Reform, an organization made up of loan guarantee agencies, said students who go back to borrowing from guarantee agencies might be surprised at the service. "A lot of work has been done on everyone's part to cut costs and to help students out Clayton said. "Stu- dents will find no differences in ser- vice The House budget also includes the elimination of the six-month in- terest-waiver for new graduates and an increase in the PLUS-loan interest rate. The Senate will vote on its ver- sion of the budget soon. During the week of October 23. the Senate voted unanimously to do away with three provisions that student lobbying groups and college administrators had harshly criticized. They include a tax on colleges of 0.85 percent of their loan volume, which many colleges estimated would cost them nearly $1 million a year: the elimination of the six-month waiver period during which the government pays the interest on the loans of new graduates and a jump in the interest rate on PLUS loans. Sen. Paul Simon (D-IU.). one of the architects of the direct lending bill, said he will try to reduce the $10.8 billion to S4.4 billion when the bud- get comes up for approval on the Sen- ate floor. "(Republicans) are taking the choice away from colleges and ending the competition that has ben- efited students Simon said. House and Senate ieaders will meet to work out differences between the two proposals, which are part of a much larger bill to balance the fed- eral budget and cut income taxes over the next seven years.

Knight's presentation is just one of the many programs Pi Sigma Alpha has spon- sored this year. Earlier in the semes- ter, the organization sponsored a se- ries of lectures and panel discussions exploring such subjects as the de- mocracy movement in Haiti, the role of the CIA in a post-cold war nation and various issues surrounding the 1996 presidential election. "We try to present what we feel is important to students Rajmaira said, adding that most of the organization's ideas for presentations are the result of students' requests. Conner hopes that his initiating a piesentation about the issues of hog farm waste will be helpful to oth- ers at the university. 'I'm looking forward to the pre- sentation Cooper said. "1 have ev- ery confidence that Dr. Knight will do a good job of putting all of the facts on the table ADVISORS from page 1 The theme was chosen because it emphasized fun and enthusiasm. Bartlett said a good leader must pos- sess these qualities along with the ability to be a serious and hard worker. Students who attended the conference discussed different pro- grams and exchanged ideas. They also took part in three special projects. The first project delegates participated in was called "Shirts Off Your Backs Students were asked to bring shirts stating their school logo or shirts from previous SAACAURH conferences. The shirts received were donated to the Greenville Women's shelter. "Cans for Life" was another project at the conference. Students were asked to donate canned food which was then donated to Pitt County AIDS Service Organization (PICASO). The delegates did not forget needy children. The third special project they participated in was "Toys for Tots Delegates brought toys in good condition to the conference. The toys were then given to the Marine Corps, so they could hand them out to underprivileged children. The conference was not all meetings and work. ECU also showed delegates how to have a good time. Delegates participated in bowling, billiards, a Spades tournament, ping pong, bingo and a dance. They were also able to watch the movie Congo and do a large number of other ac- tivities. ECU's dining services pro- vided delegates with a blast from the past Dining services held a 50s theme banquet Tables were decorated with old records and 50s memorabilia. Ice sculptures in the shape of juke boxes, coke bottles and records were there to help delegates feel as if they had become a part of an era long gone. "I believe ECU did a really good job Bartlett said. "The staff worked really hard. Putting together a SAACAURH conference is a lot of responsibility and hard work. I would like to thank all the advisors and vol- unteers, because without them we could not have pulled SAACAURH off. "The SAACAURH conference was the largest conference that Greenville has ever hosted, and I am proud to say that it was held at ECU and I could be a part of it. It was an awesome experience All students who partici- pated in the conference seemed to have an enjoyable time and left ECU with fond memories and new friends. "I feel that the conference went very well said Craig Doucette, public relations chairman for the con- ference. "It ran smooth. I would like to thank the staff for all the help. Many schools have already e-mailed me and said they liked ECU'S confer- ence better than past SAACAURH conferences Cooper said he anticipates Pi Sigma Alpha will sponsor at least one more speaker this semester, and he has made plans to have someone from the Criminal Justice department tackle a political issue like prison re- form.

With such great role models, the Gen X'ers should be A-OK. Too often, we stereotype faculty. As students, it's an easy temptation to hate these people who teach us, grade us and assign us wheelbarrows full of work. Sometimes, they must seem like some kind of big-brained ogre-geeks, unconcerned with the real problems of real people (like the eternal ECU cycle of finding dates and purchasing beer). People on the staff catch even more hell from students. Unlike faculty, with whom we occasionally interact on some human level, staff people are all about business. Every time there's some problem with registration or financial aid, they're the ones who have to deal with irate students who could care less that the person in front of them had little to do with the glitch. With all the red tape that gets strung around a major university, it's easy to dehumanize staff people, too. That's why it's important to remember the rare occa- sions when we get to see these people as more that just cogs in the machine. Each year, ECU faculty and staff par- ticipate in a state-wide charity drive called the State Em- ployees Combined Campaign (SECC). The money raised by SECC is distributed among any number of different chari- ties chosen by the people who make the donations. This year, ECU faculty and staff have raised over $126,000 and hope to reach $150,000 before the money stops trickling in. That's a whole lot of cash, folks, and it can go to help a whole lot of people who have much worse problems than the average ECU student. Does such a mas- sive charitable deed sound like the action of people whose business it is to give you a hard time? You're damn right it doesn't! The East Carolinian applauds ECU faculty and staff for their efforts, this year and every year, to raise money for charity. It's good work, and they deserve credit for it. Credit, and maybe less of a hard time from students. But maybe you remain unconvinced. Maybe you're one of those more cold-hearted students out there, the ones who have, perhaps, been treated more harshly by the sys- tem than most. Maybe you have a harder time accepting the good will and general humanity of the faculty and staff. If you're one of these people, perhaps this will land closer to your cold, hard heart. One of the incentives for ECU employees to participate in SECC was the chance to dress their managers up for Halloween however they wanted. That's right, a few lucky employees got to pick out costumes for the people hose job it is to give them a hard time. If good deeds don't convince you of the humanity of ECU faculty and staff, maybe that will. Nothing is more human, after all, than revenge. The uprising is now $Ma My fellow college students, are you tired of having your money sucked out of you for nothing in re- turn? I, for one, am, and it is time to say something about it. When was the last time you saw a rebate in your tuition, or one year your rates actually go down? You know why you don't see this, because the uni- versity administration, those won- derful people who know the ins and outs of red-tape, would find that too easy. It upsets me, as an out-of-state student, that for all the money I spend on an education here, I get jack. The university does not appre- ciate me as a student, they appreci- ate me for my financial contribu- tions to their pockets and all their expansions that we as students had no say in. Why should the administration decide to raise our tuition and stu- dent fees so that different programs can be implemented or different stu- dent organizations can have more money? Why can't we be able to vote on them? Because in an obscure way, we, the SGA, did. Those people who we thought would be on our side, ended up thinking of their own personal agendas and financial fu- tures. The whole point of this article is that the university administration needs to begin thinking more about the quality of education that the teachers here are giving and not how big our basketball arena is or if we have the greatest recreation center in the country. My money should be paying for a quality edu- Brian Lewis Burns Opinion Columnist The more education and understanding you Have, the belter person you are. cation that will prepare me for the future that lies ahead. I have been here for four years now, and I plan on going into the education field, because I want to be able to influence young minds and give a part of myself. I often think that the teachers here, how- ever, find that their teaching is just a job and nothing more. The teach- ing profession is perhaps the most formative job there is. With this po- sition, you can positively or nega- tively influence the future of this world. Unfortunately, I do not feel that the teachers here feel the same way. To many of them it is just a paycheck and nothing more. I am sorry that they do not care about the quality of the education we receive. I love edu- cation and I feel that with the more education and understanding you have, the better the person you are. I may be wrong, but this is how I feel. 1 have always been brought up �nt .

Until I came to college and started spending some of my own money for my education, I never realized the benefits of a good education. We, the students of East Caro- lina University, need to stand up and be counted. We are perceived as drunken kids who do not care about our future. Yes, there are some among us who are like that, the rest of us seem to be quiet. That does not mean we do not care. We need to show them we care about our futures and that we want what we paid for. If I am paying some schmo's pay- check, I want him to give me my money's worth. 1 do not feel like I am asking for the end of the world of something. 1 am asking for what I have coming to me. If the administration and teach- ers did not want to have to work hard and earn their money, perhaps they could have found their future in other areas such as fortune telling or being psychics on that TV show. It's obvious that many of them do not care about education andor the students. Okay, here it is. the ultimate re- quest to the university, "Give us our money's worth There, I said it in quotes to the university. Of course we all know that the university re- ally wants to show us their apprecia- tion when we get those phone calls and letters immediately following graduation asking for donations. I am not about to make a single penny do- nation to this place until I feel that 1 have gotten all that I have paid for. While watching Letterman last night, I picked up the inspiration and topic for this week's column. The theme for the Top 10 List was "Top 10 Pick Up Lines Used by Life- guards Me, as usual, being more than willing to ignore political correct- ness when it comes to good humor, found the skit hysterical. My favor- ite was "you can hear the ocean if you put your ear close enough to my red shorts Please keep in mind that I didn't make it up. haven't used it and don't plan to at any time in the near or distant future. I just found it to be distastefully funny. But enough on the Letterman review and me defending my funny bone. The topic of the day is pick-up lines. We've all heard them, and most of us have at least one friend that brags about being able to wield and manipulate them as if they were a saber. As with anything, in order to fully understand something, you must first define the issue. The defi- nition of pick is to strike with some- thing pointed or to select. Up is de- lined as aloft, high or as a prefix to imply raising or improving. A line is the shortest distance between two points. This being the case we have two choices as long as we are talk- ing about people. We can define a pick-up line as striking someone Chris Arline Opinion Columnist Hey baby, where's the fire? Something is smoking in here, it must be you. high along a path between two places. Definition number two is a select way of raising some so that they come into line with you assum- ing that you and they are the points. In layman's terms, a pick-up line is a lyrical gimmick used to gain the attention of another person in hopes of gaining a conversation (or more) out of that person, depending on how ambitious you are. In case you haven't been out in a while, a modern day example would be "Hey baby, where's the fire? Something is smoking in here, it must be you This gimmick can involve a fol- low-up. The follow-up is a line used later as way of continuing the gim- mick. This could be a little tougher to catch and might go something along the lines of but not limited to "You're special I feel surprisingly close to you for having only known you for a short while "You're not like all the others. I can talk to you These approaches are not limited to males. There are more than enough women that take this ap- proach as well, although it is usually a little more subtle. Something to the tune of "Don't I know you from some- where or "Aren't you in one of my classes?" I am always amazed at the way that people rely on these lines. It's as if meeting someone new is like get- ting into a house. Most people would just knock on the door and invite themselves in by introducing them- selves. But no, these cheese balls have to get in by using the conversa- tional equivalent of jumping through the window. Only one in 10 people will give you a chance to explain your- self, fever than that will let you stay, and the majority will give you the boot. The best way to meet someone is by simply introducing yourself. If you don't have the self-confidence to sell and be yourself then the chances are that you're going to fall on your face anyway. Who's going to respect someone that doesn't even respect or believe in themselves? By the way. did I mention that the Red Cross certified me to write on pick-up lines? Letters to the Editor Hell no to print yearbook To the Editor: Once again I feel a hand sneak- ing into my pocket, and it is not a plea- surable experience! On the surface it seems to be an ever so slight encroach- ment, but the underlying intent is enough to drive me mad. If you hap- pened to read the last page of the November 8 issue of The East Caro- linian, you may be feeling he same sneaking hand. It is not government I feel sneak- ing into my pocket this time, though. The elected body of the Student Gov- ernment Association is attempting to increase the amount of my money it controls, and doing it under the guise of a print yearbook. Without question, the SGA's at- tempt to raise student fees through the promotion of a print yearbook is the most deplorable, despicable, un- derhanded attempt at sneaking into my pocket 1 have yet to witness. No, I will not support a two dollar increase in student fees for the alleged purpose of "reestablishing a print yearbook What a crock! ECU has over 17,000 students enrolled this semester, by assuming Murphy's Law applies, con- sider a total enrollment of 15,000 stu- dents next semester. At two dollars a head, the proposed students fee in- crease adds up to $30,000. Thirty thousand dollars! This is a joke, right? This is some sort of silly spoof for The Least Carolinian, right? Wrong! This is, once again, a means to take money out of our pockets and out of our con- trol, regardless of whether you or 1 purchase a copy of the print yearbook. Michael T.

What is Western Opera Theater (WOT)? WOT is a group of young art- ists who, since 1967, have been per- forming some of the world's great- ; est operas, first around the West but eventually throughout the entire United States and around the world. It was created to give these young performers the opportunity to be fea- tured in leading and supporting roles in touring operas. In 1994, WOT be- gan using supertitles (English trans- lations projected above the stage) in their productions. They have toured Japan and Micronesia, and were the first professional opera company to tour the People's Republic of China. WOT was the recipient of the first endowment grant from the Na- tional Endowment for the Arts in 1967. Since then, it has been per- forming across the US to sold-out au- diences. Despite its growing success, WOT has not changed its values, and the company continues to remember the reasons it was founded. "WOT's original mission has re- mained the same: to present quality live opera performances to audiences who might not otherwise have this extraordinary opportunity. WOT's purpose of providing invaluable per- formance and training experience for singers, music staff, technicians and orchestra musicians has never wa- vered wrote Lotfi Mansouri, general director of San Francisco Opera, par- ent to Western Opera Theater. This year, for the first time ever, WOT has expanded its auditions to include international performers. Art- ists were chosen from over 600 ap- plicants, some of whom came to the auditions from as far away as Seoul, Hong Kong and Shanghai. "The Marriage of Figaro" has been called one of Mozart's best op- eratic comedies. It is the story of Figaro, valet to Count Almaviva, and his upcoming marriage to Susanna, maid to Countess Almaviva. However, the count wishes to have Susanna for his own, much to the dismay of his wife. And as if that weren't enough, Mozart added an aging housekeeper who wants to marry Figaro and a young page, Cherubino, who is after any and every female he sees. The resulting love hexagon can only lead to one thing: uproarious laughter from the audience! WOT's performance of "The Marriage of Figaro" is directed by Christopher Hahn, staged by Peter McClintock and conducted by Rodolfo Fischer. It is sponsored by the S. Rudolph Alexander Perform- ing Arts Series, and will be per- formed at ECU tomorrow at 8 p.m. in Wright Auditorium. Tickets are $25 for the general public, $20 for ECU faculty and staff and $12 for ECU students and youth. Croup rates are available.

He will watch anything, any time, no matter how bad or distasteful. Truly, he has no shame, and that is why we call him the TV Whore. Kevin Chaisson Staff Writer Hey! Does anybody out there re- member that there used to be intelli- gent adventureoriented cartoons that didn't condescend to their audiences of starry-eyed kids? Well, I do. Before "G.I.

'Tftovce OAiew Powder crackles with real emotional power Dale Williamson Staff Writer Stories centering around extraor- dinary individuals who don't fit into mainstream society are not unfamiliar territory. We've witnessed examples in films such as Mask, Edward Scissorhands and (to a certain extent) E.T. The basic premise of these stories is the same: an outcast misfit enters the confining gates of society and re- veals how special life really is. Of course, this misfit has to suffer from those who are afraid of anything or anyone who is different Well, if the formula works, then keep using it Following this philoso- phy, Hollywood now gives us Powder, the classic story of a misfit who touches the lives of those around him. While the film's formulaic concept may keep Powder from standing out the movie is filled with enough emotional power to make one take notice. Sean Patrick Flanery (of Young Indiana Jones fame) plays the title character. As a result of his pregnant mother being struck by lightning, Powder is born with no body hair, pale white skin, un- worldly intelli- gence, and special electrical powers. This is enough to make one seem a little different To make matters worse. Powder's mother dies when struck by the lightning, his father aban- dons him, and his grandparents hide While the film's formulaic concept may keep Powder from standing out, the movie is filled with enough emotional power to make one take notice. him from the public eye. Powder lives a secluded life with his grandparents and his books un- til his grandpar- ents die and he is discovered by lo- cal sheriff Lance Henrikson and youth counselor Mary Steenburgen. Not knowing what else to do, Henrikson and Steenburgen take Powder away from his nest and introduce him to the world outside. Unfortunately, the world outside is not always so friendly, and Powder has See POWDER page 10 CD. Reviews Artwork courtesy DC Comics Batman swings into action!

When The Pumpkins' first album, Gish, came out in 1991. Corgan had yet to build up his media personality as a popalternative(insert label here) prima donna. He and the rest of the band (which includes James lha on guitar, D'Arcy on bass, and Jimmy Chamberlain on drums) just played damn fine music back then, music that ranged from hard-edged rock to sensitive balladry. Then they released their second album, Siamese Dream. Again, the Pumpkins' skill at crafting songs was proven to be as good as ever. But arrogance reared its ugly head in Corgan when he became the video darling of MTV. When Kurt Cobain died and Nirvana couldn't be the headliner at that summer's Lollapalooza, the Pumpkins were chosen as the replacement. Over the course of that summer Corgan became an out and out media god.

I was one of those fans. Corgan became so nauseating in public that it was hard to listen to his music. Siamese Dream sat on the CD rack gathering dust, unheard for months. Therefore, the release of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sad- ness was met with much skepticism. Of course, the rest of the Pumpkins were assumed to be as good as ever, but would Corgan be able to genu- inely express himself anymore? Or would he let his pretentiousness take over his creativity? Well, I'm here to say that Mellon Collie is a brilliant success. It takes a certain confidence in one's abilities to release a double album. Perhaps Corgan's apparent aloofness has also given him the self-confidence to appioach such a new releases at scar Alice iu (iuikll.98fQ.9Q Madonna (allakI1.9QQ.9Q Covn MuleII.988.9Q �maoiiik PumpkinsK.98I3.9Q AlANK MoCKfiW11.998.96 Rap CeniusCZA12.908.90 Al (kin11.900.90 Do� Pound11.900.90 Az11.900.90 m11.900.90 massive undertaking as the 28 songs found here. Of the many double albums other bands have made, Mellon Collie is leagues above Guns N' Roses' Use Your Il- lusion I & II, not quite as good as the Beatles' White Album, and just about as good as Led Zeppelin's Physical Grafitti. The title track that opens this double album is an interesting pi- ano instrumental that sounds al- most classical. From there the al- bum combines ali the range pro- duced on other Pumpkins albums. There are punchy rock anthems ("Where Boys Fear to Tread"), soul- ful ballads ("Take Me Down"), and heavy pop tunes ("Beautiful"). It's easy to guess which songs will be the hits: "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" (a coarse rocker that is, of course, already a hit), "Love" (a dis- torted Corgan over a harsh rhyth- mic background that sounds like a battlefield), and "Bodies" (the power pop number with the won- derful chorus, "love is suicide").

If there are any drawbacks to this album, it's where the band be- comes derivative, as in "Here is No Why" where they sound like Stone Temple Pilots, or where Corgan uses his normally soft, melodic voice to scream lyrics, like the tracks "Tales of a Scorched Earth" and "X.Y.U both of which sound like bad Nine Inch Nails rip-offs. Despite these small drawbacks, my faith in The Smashing Pump- kins as a whole has been restored. In fact, Mellon Collie and the Infi- nite Sadness is such a refresher that Gish and Siamese Dream have been in constant rotation with it on the CD player. Corgan may be a jerk, but The Smashing Pumpkins are true artists. Perhaps you can enjoy this album a little longer if you don't watch MTV for the next few months.

They either don't think their voice makes a difference, fear being negatively la- beled or think that government won't change. At least the parties involved are bonding together in a legal manner to financially assist NORML in lobbying Congress to change a law they feel is unfounded. Some of the HEMPilation lyr- ics completely negate Walden's statement; but the primary issue is not the obviously controversial is- sue of marijuana legalization, it's the music. Capricorn Records should have simply marketed the CD, put out a press release with the applicable in- formation and left out the beaurocratic nonsense. Some of the most talented mu- sicians in rock's counterculture rep- resent their cause like world cham- pions on this project. Leave it at that.

Their Gotham City is a gothic art deco nightmare, bustling with menace that only heroes like Batman and his sidekick Robin could hope to combat. How's this for dark: one eerie epi- sode features an insane former child star, a little "Leave It to Beaver" kind of girl who. due to a physical abnormality, has remained trapped in her child body for the past 20 years. As revenge, she kidnaps her ex-cast members and forces them to take part in an unsettling "fi- nal show complete with an empty laugh track punctuating her every sen- tence. When Batman confronts her, she threatens him with a machine gun hid- den in her toy doll, bullets blazing out of the doll's left eye. Is this show appropriate for chil- dren? Well, unlike the movie "Batman Dini and Timm's animated Caped Cru- sader doesn't kill anybody. Ever. And what audience were the "Batman" films aimed at? Despite the constant debate be- tween Fox TV executives, critics and pa- rental interest groups on the show's mature themes, there is one point all agree on. including me. "The Adventures of Batman & Robin" is a great show. Perhaps the best way to show the high quality of "Batman & Robin" is to com- pare it with the movies, particularly the last film, "Batman Forever Two-Face is a recurring villain in the animated series, but unlike the char- acter played by Tommy Lee Jones, this criminal is an intelligent menace, not a gun-toting buffoon. The friendship be- tween Harvey "Two-Face" Dent and Bruce Wayne is explored on the series, making Harvey's plunges into madness all the more heartbreaking. And what about Robin? The series has managed to capture with one or two lines both the friendship and animosity that exists between Robin and the Dark Knight. That and, wow, Robin gets to actually do something in the series in- stead becoming a victim of the bad guys! What a concept! Other famous villains are present on the show: the Joker, the Penguin, Catwoman, Mr. Freeze, and teeming scores of others. All of whom are better-realized characters than the films featuring human actors. And what about the actors? The voice actors for "Batman & Robin" are top of the line. Most are already estab- lished stars, and more stars want to lend their voices to "Batman" characters. Kevin Conroy. whose baritone voice gives Batman personality, was a regu- lar on "Tour of Duty among other shows. Guest voices from Tim Curry to Mark Hamill to Melissa Gilbert have given "Batman" characters personality. The only thing that might put off a few viewers might be the animation style. The artwork on "Batman & Robin" is realistic, yet stylized, and very much with an art deco feel. When Batman or Robin swings at a crook, it is very possible that either's arm may curve abnormally, giving more of an impression of quick movement than of anatomical correctness. Trust me. though. If you read "Batman" comics as a kid (or as an adult), the look of the show is like a breath of minty-fresh air. If you've never read a "Batman" comic, well, get off your butt and get one. Or watch this show, because in reality, it's also better than any of the "Batman" comics on the market today. As your "TV Whore it has become my job to examine with a critical eye all television that crosses my path: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Mostly the bad and ugly. What is so rare about a show like "The Adventures of Batman & Robin" is that it is so very good. The cartoon successfully marries "Batman" creator Bob Kane's visions with those of Tim Burton. Dini and Timm - visions of rain-drenched streets seething with tension, dark corners and even darker hearts. All under the watchful eye and protection of Batman and Robin. On a scale of one to 10, "The Ad- ventures of Batman and Robin" rates a respectful 10. POWDER from page 7 no real desire to be part of it. The bulk of the story deals with the difficulties of fitting in and has typi- cal subplots, such as potential love be- tween a "normal" girl and the misfit However, directorscreenwriter Victor Salva effectively strikes at the emotional strings by allowing certain characters to be more than cardboard cut-outs. A scene where Powder lets Henrikson communicate telepathically with his dying wife choked up my otherwise stiff self. This is a wonderful moment where Henrikson flexes his acting muscles. While some scenes are done way over the top (a scene where Powder is struck by electricity in Jeff Goldblum's science class comes to mind), other scenes are exceptionally subtle. After accidentally k;Iling the school's head bully. Powder is forced to use his elec- trical powers to bring him back from the dead. When the bully is revived, he and Powder share a silent stare which can be interpreted in more than one way. Such subtleties pull the film back from the melodramatics it occasionally slips into. Another interesting element of the film is the simple fact that this misfit as opposed to misfits like Eric Stoltz or E.T is potentially dangerous. Powder not only has superior intelligence, but he also has superior power. When Pow- der gets angry, his energy can cause windows to shatter and light bulbs to burst While the establishment wants to try to control Powder so they can learn from him. the establishment also fears that he may be a force they can- not control without totally destroying him. Taking off his fedora to reveal a bald head, Flanery fills the title charac- ter with the magic necessary to create a sense of awe. At the same time, he also maintains a human dimension. Powder is a cross between a scared child who wants only to hide in his self-made womb, a curious teenager who desires to experience the world, and an angry adult who will not allow himself to be hurt Also, the fact that Flanery looks great on film is an added benefit. Only an actor with Flanery's presence could make a deathly white, frail-looking, bald misfit so physically attractive. While there are many aspects of Powder that make this film worth view- ing, it still is not by any means a great film. Some may grow tired of the film's somewhat lethargic pacing, and the more melodramatic moments border on being silly. However, if you're in the mood for a weekend matinee, or if you're looking for a flick that you can take a date to. then Powder has the power you're looking for. On a scale of one to 10.

Cold weather and the start of basketball. What could be better? On Monday, the men's basketball Head Coach Joe Dooley and women's Head Coach Anne Donovan held press conferences to discuss this sea- son in Pirate basketball. Both Dooley and Donovan are beginning their first head coaching positions at ECU. Dooley had spent the last four years as assistant coach for the Pirates, and Donovan comes from ODU, where she served as an assistant coach since 1989. Donovan sees a lot of promise in her players. The Hall of Fame in- ductee realizes with a new coach the players were going to have to make adjustments. She believes her play- ers are doing just that. "We're starting to make advance- ments and the kids are starting to pick up the system really well said Donovan. The team motto for the year is "whatever it takes It's a motto the players will follow throughout the year. "Whatever it takes, we'll try to get it done. We're going to work hard and accomplish that added Donovan. The Lady Pirates are small in size compared to the other oppo- nents.

In a league where some players are as tall as 6-6, the Lady Pirates will depend on their speed and agil- ity to compensate for their size. The Lady Pirates will be led by Tomekia "Fruiky" Blackmon, who averaged 16.1 points per game last season. A 1994 Second Team AU-CAA choice, Blackmon will return after missing eight games in the '95 sea- son due to an injured knee, in which she tore her ACL. But don't be fooled, a bum knee didn't stop her from scor- ing in double figures in 15 of her 19 games after surgery, and she looks to come back even stronger this year. This senior forward will play a major role this season not only as a player but as a team leader. "I try to motivate everybody when things aren't going well in prac- tice said Blackmon.

She returns after lead- ing the team for the second consecu- tive year in assists and free throw shooting. Charlesworth has ranked as ECU's second leading scorer for the past two seasons. During the '94 season she averaged 10.5 points per game. With a new head coach there are bound to be changes, but Charlesworth noticed the biggest change has been on defense. "We're pressuring the ball a lot more Charlesworth said. "We're having a really aggressive style of play on the defensive side, and I think that will convert a lot of turnovers See SEASON page 13 Every school has its fans, the die-hards who will stay for the end of the football game ir�the pouring raining or watch the rest of the bas- ketball game when we're down by 30 points. The Student Pirate Club (SPC) allows these fans to all come to- gether and support our athletes. There are many benefits for the members of this club, such as re- served seating at Pirate football and basketball games, priority in pur- chasing bowl tickets, special SPC ac- tivities and priority points that ac- cumulate over time. The SPC is a way for students to get more involved in the athletic program and is also a stepping stone to the next level, which is the gradu- ate level. This program takes the member three years out after gradu- ation, in which a graduate can spend $25 for a $150 credit their first year after graduation. The second year they will pay $50 for a $150 credit, and the third year they spend $100 for the $150 credit. Af- ter the three years, the member pays the regular Pirate Club fees. It is a way for new alumni to remain involved for a lesser price. The SPC charges $25 for its members to join, but' the SPC matches that contribution with an- other $25 for a total contribution of $50. A portion of the contribu- tions go towards the SPC's fund raising goals for the year. The rest goes towards the athletic fund which helps build money for athletic schol- arships for both the men's and women's ath- letic teams. Some stu- dents may think the cost is a bit much, but compared to other schools around the state it falls into the same range they charge their students. N.C.

Panthers running back injures knee (AP) - The knee brace was sit- ting on a pile of laundry in Derrick Moore's locker stall Wednesday. He had no use for the crutches, either, or the prognosis that he would miss 4-6 weeks. Forty-eight hours after doctors said a knee sprain could all but end his season, Moore, the Carolina Pan- thers' top rusher, was talking about being back on the field this Sunday in St. Louis.

Johnson, the 36th selection by Indianapolis in 1990, is with his fourth team in the league.

The Pirate vic- tory halted a UNCW five-game winning streak. Junior outside hitter Carrie Brne, led the Pirates with 15 kills, while senior team captain Melanie Richards added a team-high 15 digs. As a squad, ECU totaled a .290 attack percentage, and made just six hitting errors in 110 attempts. UNCW's Josie Youngblood, the CAA Player of the Week, led her squad with 19 kills in the loss.

"That's as serious as a heart attack he said. "I'm not joking Moore, who suffered a sec- ond-degree sprain of his right knee in Sunday's 13-7 victory over the San Francisco 49ers, said a quick re- turn to the lineup wouldn't be unprec- edented. He noted that 49ers tight end Brent Jones played against the Panthers, even though he had sprained a knee the week before and doctors told him he would be sidelined for up to six weeks. "You saw Brent Jones miracu- lously come running through the in- troductions for the starting lineups Moore said. "I'm very optimistic about it. You'll be surprised Moore said he surprised even himself by testing the knee in a little jog Wednesday. 'It feels good he said. "And it will feel better tomorrow. I'm excited about how far it's come in such a short amount of time The Panthers aren't banking on an early return for Moore, who has 576 yards and was on pace to set an expansion rushing record.

Of the 1,058 total yards Carolina has generated dur- ing the winning streak, Moore has accounted for 342. That breaks down to 32.3 percent of the Panthers' total offense and 72.1 percent of their 474 rushing yards. "it hurts having him out of there coach Dom Capers said. "We've got to work overtime the next couple of days Should the original prognosis hold up. Moore wouldn't be back in the lineup until the season finale Christmas Eve in Washington. That obviously would kill any chance of him rushing for 1.000 yards, and it would severely limit his opportunity to break the expansion rushing record of 722 yards, held by Ken Coffey of the 1966 Atlanta Falcons. Even if Moore can't play this week, he figures the worst-case scenario would have him back in less than four weeks. "I'll get to a point where I can play in a little pain he said. "That's just the kind of player I am. I don't have to be completely well. I can get to a point where I know my knee can stand pounding and cuts and turns, and I'll come back.

The probable starting line-up will be forward Shay Hayes, who will be a threat down low, for- ward Tracey Kelley, last's seasons third leading scorer, guard Justine Allpress who averaged 7.3 points per game last year, along with Blackmon and Charlesworth. Because this will be the first game for the Lady Pirate's, the play- ers as well as Donovan are ready to get started. "We are excited to get started this Saturday added Donovan. Unlike the women's team, the men have alreaJv played their first exhibition game. Dooley. who at 29 years of age is the youngest head coach in Division I, saw his players top AIA 92-81 for the victory last Thursday and Dooley liked a lot of what he saw. "We put up on the board that we wanted three "e's said Dooley. "Effort, enthusiasm and execution He got his three "e's" from play- ers who played aggressively and ex- ecuted the plays given. Sophomore Tony Parham re- turns as a starting guard and will be a key threat in the perimeter game. This 1995 CAA All-Rookie squad member will have an important role in leadership responsibilities. Parham, who believes he led by ex- ample last year, realizes he has to vocally lead the team and give the team pep talks. "I consider myself a team leader, but I'm not as vocal as they would like me to be says Parham. Junior center, Jonathan Kerner. brings height and mobility to his po- sition. As the Pirates big man at 6- 11, he will play a major role getting points inside the paint and pulling down rebounds. This is Kerner's first season playing ECU basketball. He sat out last season after transferring from Florida State University, where he played two seasons. Because Kerner has played at another school he has seen a different style of play- ing and coaching. "Coaches here care a lot more about the players progressing and maturing as individuals as well as ball players said Kerner. Other players to watch out for this year will be Tim Basham, the Pi- rates leading returning scorer, and Othello Meadows, who led all scorers against AIA with 23 points. Each coach will have a quality coaching staff backing them. The as- sistant coaches for the men's team include Lew Hill, Martin McGillan and Lane Odom. The women's team will be assisted by Ginny Doyle. Charisse Mapp and Gaynor O'Donnell. The men's and women's teams will face off against Latvia of Russia, in a doubleheader this Saturday. The men begin at 6 p.m and the women follow at 8 p.m. vLU IS from page 11 the graduates. Mark Hessert, Associate Direc- tor for the Pirate Club, believes the SPC is a good way for students to get closer to the athletic program. Although there are only about 50 members at this time, Hessert feels if students were more aware of the SPC and its activities, more people would be inclined to join. "If they get involved on the in- side they'll get more pumped up and wonder why more students haven't joined said Hessert. Anybody who attended the men's basketball games 'ast year probably noticed a certain group of students standing and cheering on the Pirates. Those loyal fans call themselves "Minges Maniacs Duke has their "Cameron Crazies" and we have our "Minges Maniacs They often led the crowd in chants, and many times got people to their feet to show support last year. Most of those students are members of the SPC. Chris Murphy, who is doing an internship with the Pirate Club, be- lieves that during this basketball season the other students will see the "Minges Maniacs" and how much fun they have, and hopefully they will inquire and be interested in a membership. "I think a lot of people will be interested in joining once basketball gets started said Murphy. Hessert says he wants the SPC to get more involved in other sports besides the two big sports, football and men's basketball. He would like to see more support for other ath- letic events such as women's basket- ball, volleyball or cross-country. Hessert wants the othc athletic pro- grams to feel like they a supported and that the students are backing the athletes in all sports. Some students might hesitate to join because of the $25 fee. Hessert understands that hesitation because he realizes most college stu- dents don't have a lot of money to spend. Throughout the year, the fee helps go towards SPC socials. These socials allow members to relax in the comfort of the Pirate Club Building and gives them a chance to meet new members. During these meet- ings snacks and refreshments are served. Guest speakers are also a treat at these meetings. The first SPC meeting held for this academic year, featured the men's basketball coach Joe Dooley who came out and talked a little one-on-one basketball with the members. It gave everyone a chance to ask questions they might not otherwise get a chance to ask. Investing in the SPC doesn't stop with graduation. Each year a person is a member they rack up points that will go towards the lev- els after SPC. "We want to keep people in- volved, because the more they're in- volved the longer they're going to stay (in the Pirate club) added Hessert. Any student who is a fan of the Pirates should consider becoming a member. It's a great way to support ECU athletics and a chance to meet many of our prominent coaches. The SPC is open to all students. For more information, contact Assistant Director Matt Maloney at 328-4532. Sports Writers meeting today at 4:30 p.m. Editorial Board meeting today at 4 p.m. JL .

Tulsa comes into the game with a 4- 5 record, which includes last week's .ess at Brigham Young . ECU HeadCoach Steve Logan knows how pivotal this game is for his Pirates. "We've got a good football team in Tulsa University coming in here that has played good football all year long" said Logan. The Golden Hurricane, coached by Dave Rader, are led by 6-foot-l,215 pound quarterback Troy Degar. The junior slinger has passed for 1,160 yards and six touch- downs this season, after being lost for last season with a knee injury. He has completed 51 percent of his passes and is third on Tulsa's squad in rushing, as he has 233 yards on 99 carries and six touchdowns. Degar is following such great 9TAFI Stephanie Lassiter Editor-in-Chief Brian Paiz Editor Celeste Wilson Production Manager Brad Oldham Asst. Editor Amanda Ross Craig Perrott Dill Dillard Writers Tulsa Quarterbacks as T.J. Rubley and Gus Frerotte, who are both in the NFL. Leading the Golden Hurricane run- ning attack is junior Solomon White. Last week against BYU, White had 90 yards on 17 carries and two touchdowns. White entered the year as a Doak Walker candi- date for the nations best running back, but he suffered a pulled hamstring early in the season that slowed him down. White had 146 yards and two touchdowns against the Pirates last season. Michael Kedzior leads Tulsa's receiv- ing corps. The senior has had two 100- plus receiving games in Tulsa's first five contests. He ranks seventh on Tulsa's all- time receiving chart behind such names as Steve Largent and Chris Penn, who Pi- rate fans should remember well from his performance in Greenville in 1993. Kedizor has 38 catches for 517 yards and three touchdowns in '95. On the defensive side of the ball for Tulsa, senior defensive end Sedric Clark and junior middle linebacker Muadianvita Kazadi lead the way. Clark is looking to establish career records for quarterback sacks this season, and so far he is well on his way as he has seven sacks on the year. He also ranks in a tie for third on the team with 52 tackles. Kazadi leads the team in tackles with 78. Against Baylor earlier in the season, Kazadi had 19 tackles, including 11 solos. Pirate quarterback Marcus Crandell will have to keep his eye on safety Jer- emy Bunch. The 6-foot, 200 pound jun- ior ranks third in the nation with six in- terceptions. Bunch also has 75 tackles, including 50 solos and six pass deflec- tions. On special teams for the Golden Hur- ricane look out for sophomore Jason Jacoby. In the last two seasons, Jacoby has had two 100 yard kickoff returns, including one last week against BYU. This season, Jacoby is averaging 25 yards per kickoff return. Analysis: The Pirates have their final two games at home for the first time in a long while. ECU is 6-3 and leads the Lib- erty Bowl Alliance, wins over Tulsa this week, and Memphis next week, would send the Pirates back to the Lib- erty Bowl for the sec- ond straight year. ECU seemed to find its offense in last week's victory over Army, and Crandell and his receiving corps looks like they are on the same page of the playbook for the first time in a while. Jems McPhail has come on strong in the last two weeks, after suffering an injury against Cincinnati, and Jason Nichols and Mitchell Galloway have had solid perfor- mances at receiver. On defense, the Pirates are continu- ing their strong play, led by Morris Fore- man, who had probably the best game of his career last week against Army. Mark Libiano leads the Pirates in tackles with 102 on the season. If the Pirates can get a lead early, they should be able to send the Golden Hurricane back to Tulsa with a loss.

' The End Zone November 9,1995 West a proven leader on Pirate defense Lorenzo West Defensive tackle took a rocky road in becoming a Pirate Craig Perrott End Zone Writer ECU defensive tackle Lorenzo West is one of the most emotional players on the Pirate football team. Off the field, West considers himself to be a quiet person who keeps to himself, but don't tell his competitors that. He says he's easy to get along with as long as you don't cross a certain line. The Pi- rates' foes must have crossed that line this season, as West has terrorized the opposing team's backfield in every game this year. West was born and raised in At- lanta, Ga and was raised by his mother after his father died when he was eight years old. His dream as a child was to make his mom happy. "If there's one person I play for, it's my mom West said. The 6-3, 238 pound junior was re- cruited by such institutions as Georgia Tech, Clemson, South Carolina, UNC, Mississippi State and Miami. West origi- nally intended to attend Georgia Tech, but an off the field incident changed his mind. "On the Friday before the Sunday that I was supposed to report for foot- ball practice, I went out with my friends for a little going away party West tells. "Another car pulled up beside me, I looked to the left and a pistol was pointed at my head. The guy could have killed me, but he shot my car about five times instead. It was at that point I knew I didn't want to stay in the city around these same people doing the same things" West headed for the more subdued Greenville area, and has been an im- pact player on the Pirate football team ever since. West says he has consistently played well this season, and believes that the team is improving from week to week. "We struggled a little bit at the be- ginning of the season. In the Temple game we got closer to were we needed to be, and in the Southern Miss game, we put it all together he said. The Pirates have achieved one of their preseason goals of having a win- ning season this year, and West says that the team has been motivated to ac- complish this goal from the beginning. "It started this summer, when all the guys decided that we were commit- ted to winning. We decided to go out and execute on Saturday at a level we know we can perform West also had some doubts coming into the season about certain defensive positions, but the move of Travis Darden to nose guard and the return of line- backer Aaron Black rekindled his confi- dence in the Pirate "D Next year the defensive unit will lose perennial contributors such as Morris Fore- man, Mark Libiano and Walter Scott. West believes, however, that the players behind them will step up next year. "We won't be as solid next year, but we'll be good West likes the chances of the Pi- rates returning to the Liberty Bowl this year, and likes the idea of the Liberty Bowl Alliance itself. "ECU now has something to play for every year.

West ad- mired a Miami player who wore no.l, and wanted to see what it would feel like to wear the number. West used it as a request on the bargaining table during his nego- tiations when signing with the Pirates. "I told them I would come to ECU if I could be number one.

Join Brian and Brad Thursday Nights at 7 p.m. on Pirate Talk on WZMB 91.3 FM. - November 9,1995 The End Zone Wiggins competing with the "big boys If Kevin Wiggins The senior center from Pink Hill, NC has more than proven himself Dill Dillard End Zone Writer An everyday grenade is approxi- mately the size of an ordinary baseball, but that same grenade has the ability to blow a gaping hole in a brick wall. That's probably the best analogy you could use to describe senior center Kevin Wiggins. Standing only at 6-foot2 and weigh- ing in at a light 264 pounds, most would look at his dimensions and ask if he's a "big" tight end. Despite his smaller stat- ure and being one of the smallest start- ing centers in division one football, Wiggins has been considered to be a cornerstone in the Pirate offensive line. Along with being one of the quickest offensive linemen on the team it has given Wiggins the opportunity to be more versatile in Logan's offensive set seeing snaps as a guard, center, tight end and even a fullback in a few situa- tions. Wiggins has often been described as a leader and one of the hardest work- ers on the team. The stout trench man has definitely earned his label coming to ECU as a walk-on and earning a Schol- arship as well as a leadership role on the offensive line. "Well in high school different schools like Georgia Tech , Duke, ECU sent letters, but mostly the smaller schools like Chowan and Wingate sent me stuff said Wiggins. Coming out of Pink Hill, N.C. and South Lenoir High School, Wiggins could be described as talented, but slightly undersized. "For a while I thought I was going to N.C. State the way they were recruit- ing me, but right at the end they told me that I was too small and that I could try and walk on. I didn't appreciate that too much. After what they did I decided that there was no way I was walking on there Wiggins added. Despite a few broken promises made by State, Wiggins' hopes of play- ing division one college football were not broken. After considering the loca- tion of the school, Wiggins decided to take his talents to near by ECU. "Growing up so close to Greenville, I have always liked ECU football he said. Plus I had a brother that was here and I wanted to be close to home so it would be easy for my family to come see me play, Now many are not aware that Wiggins' first year as a Pirate was 1991, the year that ECU went 11-1 and capped the season with a victory over N.C. State in the Peach Bowl. Wiggins played a small role that year on the ninth ranked Pirates of '91, being red-shirted and playing center on the practice squad. "When I was a freshman, it was Okay. It was fun, we were winning , and we finished 11-1, but! wasn't playing said Wiggins. After the Peach Bowl was over and the echoes of the cheering crowd in At- lanta had died, Wiggins faced yet an- other hardship. "My freshman year, I had mono which killed my size. I lost a lot of the weight I worked hard to get over the duration of the season Wiggins com- mented. After getting over the wearing ill- ness the young wal- on was everything, but discouraged. After long days in the gym in the off season, his hard work finally paid off dividends as Wiggins went on to play three games in the '92 season and played a starting role in the past three seasons. From a walk on to the anchor man of the offensive line, Wiggins has been a vital cog in the ECU machine that has propelled itself to one Liberty Bowl appearance and possibly a second at the end of this season. "The past three seasons, including this one has been different from the '91 season said Wiggins. "I look at the Liberty Bowl season last year and the opportunity to return to Memphis this year and it's more meaningful, because I was helping make it happen on the field As everybody knows, with two more victories the Bucs would have the op- the Army and Southern Miss games, it portunity to return to Memphis, and no seem to come together Wiggins added, one would enjoy that more than the se- "I'd have to admit it would be nice to niors on this Pirate squad. get back to Memphis, but first ti.ings "We started out slow, you know first, we have to get it done against playing strong for only a half, but after Tulsa ayt64�Lcatan4, Brian Paiz End Zone Editor ECU 35 Tulsa 21 "ECU jumps on Tulsa early, helps improve home record to 4-0 Brad Oldham End Zone Asst.

Amanda Ross End Zone Writer "Nobody is ever going to give you anything. You must work for everything you Many people might argue that a punter does not have much impact on a team. But don't tell that to Matt Levine. Levine, ECU'S starting punter for the second consecutive year, is coming off an impressive season in '94. He av- eraged 42.6 yards per punt last season, and finished the year ranked 15th in punting average in the final NCAA rankings. This season he is only averaging 35.5 yards per punt but contributes his lower numbers to the offense moving the ball down the field, so he doesn't have to punt as far. But he still isn't too pleased with his performance. "I think it has been a disappointing year for myself said Levine. "To average six or seven yards a kick less than last year, I pretty much think it is inexcusable mmmmmmmmrm Levine did explode for his longest punt of the year against Temple. He booted one 58 yards his best yet on the year, however he has had two other punts to go 50 yds. He has punted 16-50 inside the 20 yard line. Levine has racked up a total of 1776 yards for the year. Last year he was a member of the second All-Independent team, and is a preseason candidate for this year also. He was a member of the All-Carolinas team by The Charlotte Observer. This one time former quarterback came to ECU solely for punting. He was a punter in high school and sometimes played quarterback to fill what he called a void on the team. His experience as a quarterback helped him last season against South Carolina where he completed two passes on a fake field goal and fake punt. He hit Scott Richards with a 25-yard TD pass on the fake field goal attempt. For people who say punting the ball is a breeze, Levine has something different to say. "There is the image you have to just go out and kick the ball and there's a lot more to it than that added Levine. Levine believes that people who re- ally know and understand the game re- alize there is more to it than meets the eye. His 15th ranking last year made Levine feel pretty good to finish that high, and gave him high expectations for this year. But Levine doesn't feel he is performing well enough to uphold that ranking for this year, but it does give him a goal to strive for next year. Many times the punters are roughed up and beat down by the opponents. Levine has seen his fair share of hits but he gets right up and keeps on go- ing. He has a lot of confidence in the line and believes they will protect him. "Basically if it happens, it happens. But most of the time we are able to get the ball off and our guys can get down the field and cover pretty well Levine said. � earn. � Matt Levine This honor roll player believes aca- demics are very im- portant in one's life.

So you better get yours before they run out! November 9,1995 The End Zone Liberty Bowl puzzle becoming more clear If Big East doesn't get fourth team, Liberty Bowl will look elsewhere Brad Oldham Senior Writer One out of three noble achieve- ments have been accomplished already this season by the Pirates. With ECU'S 31-25 win over Army last Saturday, the Pirates have ensured themselves their second consecutive winning season for the first time in twelve years. And with a one game lead over Cin- cinnati (5-4) in the Liberty Bowl Alli- ance with two games remaining, the Pirates look to be repeat champions of the five member correlation again this season. But ask the Pirates if either of these accomplishments hold the weight of a coveted Liberty Bowl Championship, and you'll see that this season still has a lot left to be proven for coach Steve Looa and his squad. " The anticipation of ECU returning to Memphis again this December has already begun throughout Greenville, even though Logan and company know that the second-place Bearcats are breathing down their necks with two games left in the season. Remember, if Cincinnati and ECU finish up with the same records, the fact that the Bearcats won the match-up in the regular season will put them ahead of us in the alliance. Southern Missis- sippi (4-5), Memphis (3 6), and Tulane (2-7) have already made their golf tee- times for December. If ECU can win these last two games here at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium and fin- ish 8-3 on the season, there's no ques- tion that we're in the Liberty Bowl. The two wins will also give Logan his best record as head coach, after fin- ishing 7-5 last season, 2-9 in 1993, and 5-6 in his rookie year as head coach the season before. So, with the season winding down, the tension's heating up, not only to see who the Liberty Bowl Alliance Cham- pion will be, but who they will play on December 30th in Memphis. The Big East fourth place finisher is the planned opponent, but with the Big East having a down year this season, there's a chance that four teams won't have the required six victories to participate. The likely choice from the Big East is West Virginia, whom the Pirates pre- viously beat this season here in Greenville. A rematch of the Mountain- eers would not only be exciting for ECU, because we know we can beat them, but also for WVU, who have revenge on their mind. The biggest roadblock for West Virginia is Saturday's game at Miami against the Hurricanes. What happens if only three teams from the Big East have the six required victories? That's what Bob Martin, head of the St. Jude Liberty Bowl Alliance must decide. The early candidates of teams out- side the Big East include Oklahoma, Iowa, Wisconsin, University of Mary- land, and UCLA. And with the likelihood of West Virginia not being able to beat Miami, look for one of these teams to be a possible opponent. And with the Pirates on track to re- turn to the Bowl, ECU fans are ready for Memphis. The question is: is Mem- phis ready for us? "We're definitely excited about the possibility of ECU coming back to Mem- phis Martin said. "We believe that this season, ECU Liberty Bowl Alliance East Carolina Cincinnati Southern Miss Memphis Tulane 6-S 5-4 4-5 3-6 2-7 This week's games Tulsa at East Carolina Southern Miss at Memphis Cincinnati at Kentucky Rutgers at Tulane fans will be even bigger in numbers than last season, and will be even more sup- portive and more active than last year Martin has added an exciting col- lege basketball game the night before the big-game, matching up the Temple Owls with the Memphis Tigers. This is just a taste of the many activities that will take place to help the St. Jude Hos- pital of Memphis, a children's hospital that has been offering free medical care to thousands of children suffering from catastrophic diseases such as Leukemia. "The St. Jude Hospital is ultimately what this whole weekend is all about. Since the early 1970's, our cure rate has increased 40 percent thanks to do- nations and fund-raisers such as this Liberty Bowl Martin said. Martin advises ECU students that if the Pirates win the Alliance, they should reserve early, and be ready for an exciting weekend. "Its going to be great here in Mem- phis. The weather is always good, and if ECU is coming, we are going to throw them a party on Thursday and Friday night on Beale Street like they've never experienced Hey, sounds like our kind of town, Bob.
