A motion was called to fund $2,500 for student football tickets, which will provide for the upcom- ing N.C. State game in November, with the SGA funding available now. This will leave a remaining $500 worth of freshman tickets to be pur- chased next semester. Eastman asked the legislative body to vote on having a booth at Barefoot on the Mall. The booth will cost approximately $700. The vote passed. "This is a chance for us to be- come visible and get in the public eye Eastman said.

Alleged poor polling practices during the Student Government Association's (SGA) election on March 27 prompted a presidential candidate to file a complaint. Presidential Candidate John Lynch made several allegations against the election process which included the late opening and early closing of polling sites, unmarked IDs and an inability to gain access to elec- tion information. "Todd Dining Hall closed several minutes early due to the fact that they were out of bubble sheets Lynch said. "That's a critical time, at least voting-wise, for students coming in for dinner - that's basically prime time Lynch said he had reports that several IDs were marked incorrectly. including his own which was left com- pletely unmarked. "Having 12 (polling) sites spreads us too thin said Dean of Students and SGA Adviser Ron Speier. "It be- gins to wear on the credibility of the election Speier said that an electronic device may be used for scanning IDs in next year's elections in order to reduce the risk of fraud. He said that because the number of scanners would be limited, the number of poll- ing sites may have to be limited. Election Chair and SGA Chief-of- Staff Penn Crawford said that each poll taker was given a copy of regula- tions, and the regulations were read aloud twice. "Each of the poll tenders received a set of direction to mark the upper- most 15 Ion IDs) Crawford said. Included in the poll takers' list of responsibilities are checking each voter's ID card, marking the desig- nated upper-15 on each ID.

"That's what the taxpayers deserve None of this surprises Dr. Jim Smith, executive assistant to the chan- cellor, who has known the new secre tary for 25 years of her service to ECU. "I can't think of a better person to re-institute integrity in that office than Janice Faulkner Smith said. Faulkner began her 38 year as- sociation with the university as a stu- dent. She earned a B.S. and M.A. from ECU and after further graduate stud- ies at Breadloaf School of English in Vermont, she returned to this campus and spent 25 years as an English pro- fessor. She also served as director of alumni affairs, director of the regional development institute and associate vice chancellor for regional develop- ment "While at the regional develop- ment office, she brought many projects to fruition for eastern North Carolina Smith said. "She always cares about economic development and quality of life wherever she goes In 1993, Hunt appointed Faulkner to his cabinet as Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Revenue. Under Faulkner's leadership, ac- cording to government documents, the department of revenue has been able to collect more taxes, more quickly, with fewer employees, and is now the most cost-efficient depart ment of revenue in the nation The revenue department has been nominated for a national Janice Faulkner Smithsonian Award for use of tech- nology for public service, and won a quality management award from Anderson Consulting, an independent consulting firm. ?Janice Faulkner has shown that good management serves North Caro- lina taxpayers well Hunt said Faulkner's official biography states that her loyalty to her birth- place in eastern North Carolina has led hei to he a Strong ami ettective advocate tor regional economic devel opment in th.it area See ECU page 4 -Wfrfte m&iale Kick off those shoes and run to Barefoot '96page 7 "Logans rolling in cash" 5 Precast Thursday Weekend Partly sunny SPO" &jcc4daty j j " ??ll llo ?hrnnh I Baseball pulls through High 72 low 48 Partly cloudy High 75 Low 38 The Fast Carolinian Phone (newsroom) 328 - 6366 (advertising) 328 - 2000 Fax 328 - 6558 E-Mail UUTKX"F:UVM.( IS.lt I I DC Student Publication Bldg. 2nd floor Greenville, NC 27858 Student Pub Building; ,nross from lovner Hum in i" ii i' i' Thursday, ApriU, 1996 The East Carolinian Friends raise money for library ? ?

Fund raisers set goal in effort to help complete renovation Tara Conrad Staff Writer While ECU'S Joyner Library is in the process of being renovated and re- constructed, a new project has been created by the Friends of the ECU Li- brary to aid in its completion. This fund-raising project titled Friends Foundation Endowment Fund, has been established to raise money that will enable new and exciting re- sources to be added to the finished li- brary. The goal of the project is to raise $250,000. The project was just recently started. Materials and brochures have just been printed. The project will go on until the goal is reached, which is expected to be sometime in the next year and a half. "Our budget just isn't what it ought to be said Kenneth Marks, di- rector of academic library services. The new Joyner Library, to be completely finished in 1998, will in- crease the university's academic library services and the surrounding region that it serves. The building will seat 2,000 people, provide 36 group study rooms, 75 faculty studies and 102 graduate student carrels. It will also provide space for 1.5 million volumes and will be set up to produce and dis- tribute television programming. This will help with distance learning through TV for the citizens of eastern North Carolina. The library's computer network will enable students and the commu- nity to gain access to data, images, voice and video resources across the world. Former University Attorney Dr. David Stevens is heading the commit- tee for the fund. He is the president- elect of the ECU Friends of the Library. Anyone can show their support for the university and the library by con- tributing to this fund. The Friends wel- come any individuals, families, clubs and organizations to participate by con- tributing at least $1,000 to the Friends Foundation Endowment Fund. Donors of the project will be honored on the Patrons' Wall. This will be a plaque that is displayed inside the building's new entrance. However, only the first 250 donors will be honored due to space limitations. "For example, an organization such as a sorority can contribute Stevens said. "Collectively, they can contribute $1,000 by fund raising and conducting other events. The gradu- ating classes of this year and next year might also contribute. It is just a great way to become a part of the greatest event in our library's history There are currently four levels of giving. Donors contributing $1,000 are to be displayed on the Patrons' Wall; those contributing $2,000-3,000 will have a Graduate Student Carrel named after them; those giving $3,500-5,000 will get a Faculty Study Room; donors contributing $5,000 will have a Group Study Room named in their honor. Donors may have their name displayed on the plaque or choose to have a loved one's name on the plaque. With these contributions, the li- brary should be completed in three phases. Phase One, which includes the whole new structure of the building, should be finished by Jury 1,1996. Ma- terials will be moved by August 5 of this year. Phase Two, including renovations of everything to the left of the front entrance, should be completed by July of 1997. Six to eight months from then, Phase Three, which will include reno- vations of everything to the right of the front entrance, should be completed. To contribute, obtain a brochure titled "Friends of the ECU Library" and fill out the Statement of Intent form. The brochure can be obtained from the Manuscript Collections Room in the li- brary. You may pay in full or in install- ments. All contributions must be paid in full by December 31,1997. For more information, contact David B.

Doctoral student wins cystic fibrosis fellowship Debra Byrne Staff Writer April 2 Assist rescue - A resident of Tyler Hall was transported to PCMH by Greenville Rescue after she was found unconscious in her room. Larceny - A staff member reported the larceny of money and checks from an office in the General Classroom Building. The checks were recov- ered by Housekeeping Staff and turned in to the Police Department Compiled by Marguerite Benjamin. Taken from official ECU police reports. A doctoral student in the depart- ment of physiology at ECU's School of Medicine has been awarded a fel- lowship from the Cystic Fibrosis Foun- dation. Chris Penland will conduct his fellowship at Stanford University af- ter receiving his Ph.D. from ECU in May. The fellowship award will pro- vide Penland with $78,000 for two years of salary and supplies. The fel- lowship is renewable for a third year. Penland sent his grant applica- tion to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation last September. He competed with people all across the nation and was granted the fellowship Jan 16, 1996. While at Stanford, Penland's re- search will focus on describing ion transport in simian airways. These airways are the airways of monkeys. He will also investigate therapeutic approaches to cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease where chloride ions are unable to move into the passages of the lungs, therefore fluids such as water are unable to foilow. Penland will use Rhesus monkeys in order to research a therapeutic method to alleviate cystic fibrosis and gene therapy to correct it Penland said if monkeys are like humans, they can be used as a model to compare therapeutic methodology. One form of therapeutic method- ology is gene therapy which places the correct gene into epithelial cells that line the airways. Another form is pro- tein therapy where the correct pro- tein is placed into the cell. Protein therapy is a contrast to gene therapy. Penland said this fellowship will allow him to get advanced training 7. .N P U I C I P I I. s t x i) p 1.1 p i .m : i &? SB ?w3BE?? j 5 ? ? 3T3r ?i-l ' 1 ? I ? ?? CO8 vn , ? ?

SRAs are tax- deferred annuities designed to help build additional assets ?money that can help make the difference between living and living well after your working years are over. Contributions to your SRAs are deducted from your salary on a pretax basis. That lowers your current taxable income, so you start saving on federal and, in most cases, state and local income taxes right away. What's more, any earnings on your SRAs are also tax deferred until you receive them as income. That can make a big difference in how painful your tax bill is every year. As the nation's largest retirement system, based on assets under management, we oKcr a wide range of allocation choices ?from the T1AA Traditional Annuity, which guarantees principal and interest (backed by the company's claims-paying ability), to TIAA-CRKF's diversified variable annuity accounts. And our expenses are very low which means more of your money goes toward improving your future financial health. To find out more, call 1 800 842-2888 We'll send you a complete SRA intormation kit, plus a free slide calculator that shows you how much SRAs can lower your taxes.

He said the award has a posi- tive effect on the medical school's reputation. "The award recognizes the train- ing that the basic science department can provide to the graduate stu- dents Penland said. "Since the ap- plication went in for a national com- petition it also speaks well for devel- oping the thought processes needed to investigate basic biological prob- lems and determining the underly- ing mechanisms which effect those problems Dr. Michael Van Scott is an as- sociate professor of physiology at the medical school. He is also Penland's advisor. "Stanford is a prestigious univer- sity and Chris won a nationally com- petitive award to attend Stanford for advanced training Van Scott said. "It is indicative of the high quality of students coming out of the pro- grams here at ECU Van Scott said Chris is one of many graduates who have been made fellows or faculty members after com- ing out of the medical school. Gradu- ates have gone to John Hopkins Uni- versity, Harvard, Boston University and other high powered schools. Penland received his bachelor degree at Pfeiffer College in sports medicine.

Arlington Village 756-6670 in Atlantic Beach and is scheduled for May 11, rain or shine. According to the coordinator of the Crystal Coast Bike Tour, Carolyn Lamm, this fund-raiser is a first for the CF Foundation and promises to be a fun weekend at the beach. "This is a new event for us and the idea is to have a good time while raising money for cystic fibrosis Lamm said. "We chose the Atlantic Beach area because we felt it would attract a lot of people from other parts of the state Participants may choose be- tween four scenic routes - a 100K, a 50K, a 25K and a fun ride at 17K, each clearly marked and with fully supplied rest areas. Each tour offers a variety of sites and scenic beauty along the way. "For example one route takes you down to the NC Aquarium and coast guard station, and another takes you through Fort Macon and the surrounding beach Lamm said. "So you have a chance to experience the beauty of the Crystal Coast Though the bike tour offers an opportunity for people to come to- gether and enjoy themselves, the tour's main purpose is to raise funds for continuing cystic fibrosis re- search. Therefore an early registration of $15 dollars is required by April 4 and each rider must raise at least $50 in donations. Lamm said that presently there are not enough riders registered. "We need to raise $20,000 but we don't have that many people yet Lamm said. "It's still early though, we need about another 100 people Lamm also said that people shouldn't be discouraged if they're not long distance riders. There will be support vans and rest stops along every route. Of the money raised by CF fund- raisers, the sponsoring foundation in Wilson's annual report stated that over 90 percent of its proceeds went to funding its research programs. The amount left over is what's used for fund-raising activities and to pay management. "Compared to other charities we're real proud of the percentage that goes to our programs Lamm said. "Only around 3 percent goes to management According to a CF brochure, the foundation's intense focus on re- search has resulted in many break- throughs against the genetic born disease. Unfortunately, there is no cure for the fatal disease, which also hap- pens to be the most common fatal genetic disease. CF causes a salt imbalance in the body and primarily afflicts the lungs, sweat glands and pancreas. The CF brochure states' that 'it causes the body to producela thick, sticky mucus which clogs the lungs, leading to infection and lung dam- age. The mucus buildup also makes digestion difficult Because CF affects 30.Q00 chil- dren and adults and occurs once in every 2,000 births, it is a growing problem. "People should know their par- ticipation in fund-raisers is very im- portant Lamm said.

"This year we had about 50 to 60 representatives on our register.

Our View ??-? : . t ???: ? ? The bottom line is economics. Coach Logan received a $10,000 per year raise in salary on February 23,1996. The increase means his paycheck goes from $97,000 a year to $107,000 a year. There's a lot that goes on in the football program we don't see as outsiders. But, basically Coach Logan is the bottom line. That's why his title is head coach. If the team loses a game, it's his fault If the team should have a losing season, it's his fault If there are recruiting prob- lems, it's his fault If certain star players never make it to the field because of grades or other reasons, yes, again his fault ? Many factors completely out of his control are his responsibil- Logan Carries the ity ? wen. But that's not any new revelation.

Most coaches don't last long at all. The first time they have he SnOUld make pr0blems or heaven forbid, a losing season, they're fired. When ECU got Steve Logan, we got a winner. But in this game, winners are compensated or they leave. If Logan is not paid what he's worth, or what another school would pay him, he'll probably leave. We, at TEC, are certainly not trying to contend that Logan is more important than any certain professor teaching on cam- pus. We're not saying the football program is more important than any academic concentration. Many folks could really care less about our football program. But when we have a winning football team, the program's revenue increases. More people buy game tickets, sponsors pay more for sponsorship, games are televised, merchandise sales increase and so on. It's all about economics.

Legislature lacks biblical history mmammmammmmtmammm ?co?(0h an pntirplv new deDarti By promoting the Ten Com- mandments the Tennessee legisla- ture is 190 years behind the times of biblical scholarship. W.M.L. de Wette observed in 1806 that the laws, which according to the Pentateuch God promulgated through Moses, appear to be un- known in later history recorded in Judges, Samuel and most of Kings. Those books show a complete ignorance of Mosaic stipulations. There is no suggestion that Yahweh is to be worshipped only at one cen- tral sanctuary, no precise regulations about how sacrifices are to be offered, and no established priesthood to regulate worship. Chronicles expands Samuel and Kings so as to include laws conspicuously absent in them and contrary to the behavior of early Hebrew Monarchs. De Wette argues that the laws were framed after, and as a corrective to, the ungodly be- Jim Senyszyn Guest Columnist havior of the early kings. Kings only makes occasional ref- erence to Mosaic laws until it tells the discovery of the "book of law" in the reign'of Josiah in 621 B.C.E 400 years after David (2 Kings 22). Josiah's knowledge of the book rep- resented an entirely new departure in the religious life of Israel. Josiah commanded the keeper of passover (23:21 ff.) which hitherto had not been observed. De Wette suggests accordingly that a written book of law may not have existed before Josiah, in whose reign it was, accord- ing to Kings, discovered. Even Jeremiah, who was active after the discovery, deemed the law book of little account and repudiated its authority (Jeremiah 7:22). The inconsistency between the starting point of Israeli history, as stated in the opening books of the Bible, and that history itself suggests that the book of laws may have been a priestly fabrication introduced long after Israel's Golden Age under David and Solomon. A good reference is Ri- chard E. Friedman's Who Wrote the Bible? published in New York by Harper Row in 1989. If s horrible, how could the fed- eral do such a thing? They are trying to put hard working people out of work and destroy the economy of South Florida. These are some of the arguments put forth by South Florida sugar cane growers in response to a recent sug- gestion by Vice President Al Gore. His suggestion was that the Federal Gov- ernment take away one penny per pound in subsidies to South Florida Sugar producers and put it toward protection of the Everglades. People should be disturbed to say the least No, not at the fact that the government is considering a cut but because they are giving domestic sugar growers 18 cents per pound of sugar they produce as a means of keeping their prices low so they can compete with foreign countries. The aforementioned paragraph is just one illustration of how Federal tax supported subsidies are being wrongfully used. Unfortunately, there are other products that receive the same sort of tax payer backing as well. For example, the government pays the Campbell Soup Corporation $1 mil- lion plus annually for product promo- tion overseas. Don't worry, Uncle Ben gets a few million as well to promote his rice sales in Poland, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Of course this is just a drop in the bucket compared to the Chris Ariine Senior Opinion $110 million the Department of Agri- culture spent last year to promote American made foodstuffs. The unnecessary subsidizing is not limited to just food products. The Federal Government still pays up to $3 million to the owners of new Ameri- can made cargo ships if they are made so that they can be made available for government use in war time. This be- ing the case despite the fact that the defense department no longer wants or needs this service even if there is a war. Texas Instruments gets $13 mil- lion a year to convert military tech- nology into something that civilians can use. Their revenues are $10.3 bil- lion and at the end of the last fiscal taxpayersr year they ended with a net income of $691 million. I would be willing to go out on a limb and venture a guess tha k they wouldn't have finished with a loss , without government subsidizing. , n, The reason for this subsidizing is simple. Politics is more or less about, - money. It takes money to get into andn stay in public office. The average lay person can't afford the kind of influ ence or campaign support that the big industries can. For example we can. ? look at both industry and agriculture Maritime unions and shipping busV ness have contributed over $17 mil lion to congressional campaigns oves the past ten years. The domestic sugar industry has the second largest lok byist group in the agriculture business , (second only to tobacco, which is also, ? federally subsidized, go figure). It also gives millions annually to congrev . sional campaigns. v The fact of the matter is that the government corporate welfare is not u in the best public interest It merely protects a few high paying jobs that h would otherwise not make it for a, . short while longer allowing the indus try to fall farther and farther behind It is not in line with the ideas of capi talism that America was founded on By distorting pure competition, the. consumer pays the price twice; once by paying the taxes and again by geta ting a lesser product Letters Faculty; staff need space To the Editor, The students, faculty and staff at East Carolina University are finding parking space to be a prob- lem. With the upcoming of new buildings and renovation on cam- pus, it has created more of a prob- lem for employees to find a park- ing space on and around campus. The Parking and Planning Committee should look into a des- ignated area for parking and have a shuttle bus to pick the employ- ees up and carry them to their of- fices. It's getting more and more frustrating to buy a parking per- mit for $96, just to hunt for a park- ing space. It gets more humiliat- ing when you have to leave for lunch, to return 15 minutes early; to ook for a parking space. I do hope someone will look into this matter on behalf of the faculty and' staff. y Sincerely, Odesser Holley concerned employee Satire degrades major '???' fe W& TOSSES, BUT AittTfe To the Editor, I was reading the March 28th edition of The East Carolinian (April Fools Edition) and I was very upset when I read your article titled "Beavis elected campus president" I realize that the article was written to be witty but when you make fun of someone's major, it tends to strike a nerve. 1 am a recreation and lei- sure studies major and I know for a fact that we work just as hard as any other major on campus. We felt it was rude and degrading to associate Beavis to recreation and leisure ma- jors. Would you want someone like Beavis running your campus recre- ation department working with the disabled or as the editor of The East Carolinian! I don't think so. My point is that we work really hard at our major and we are proud of what we want to do as our profession. When you associate a loser such as Beavis with our major, you should- be aware that we are offended. i" I just wanted to make it cleaL. that what you write, whether it be a? story, just for fun or something seri-r ous, it should be looked at a little- more carefully.

Yes, after eight years and 75 issues, this dark fantasy comic ceased publication in an unusual, if not unique, move for the comics industry: it ended because the story was over. Comic book series are much like TV series, you see; the company starts them running and they keep going until sales (or ratings) are too low to make them profitable anymore. With relatively few exceptions, this is the lot of series fiction. It gets milked and milked until the public is sick to death of it then they take it behind the barn and shoot it in the head. Luckily, that's not the case with Sandman. Writer Neil Caiman started a story that began in issue one and ended in issue 75, and that's all the Sandman we get But it was a good run, and I thought I'd take a little space to publicly appreciate it Revipving a 75-issue comic book series is a difficult task at best but here goes. The big Sandman story is bro- ken up into several smaller stories, with overarching themes tying every- thing together. The main character is Morpheus, the lord of dreams, an aloof and distantly sad figure. As the series progresses we learn more about Morpheus' psychological make-up, but I'll try to avoid revealing too much of that. One of the great joys of reading Sandman is the slow realization of Every paper has a TV critic, but our critic is no normal couch potato, no mere TV junkie. No, our man will watch anything, anytime, regardless of quality or good taste. Truly, he has no shame, ancfthat is why we call him "The TV Whore Kevin Chaisson Senior Writer Dear Mr. Spelling: First, I would like to say that I am a great fan of all of the shows that you have been involved with. I grew up with Dynasty, T.J. Hooker, Fantasy Island, The Love Boat and with Charlie's Angels most of all. I have followed your productions into the '90s - I'm a bit of a Melrose Place fanatic, I admit. However, it is not these shows that I am interested in discussing with you here. Instead, my interest lies with your newest show, the high school drama Malibu Shores, air- ing Saturdays on NBC. I believe you should hire me to write for Shores. Now, I understand that I have no real experience writing for TV, but God knows I've watched enough of it to compensate for that. At first, I fancied an acting role on the show, but since my teeth aren't perfect and I'm not related to you in any way, I decided you might not go for that. Anyway, I'm sure you have enough problems with your son Randy's incredibly bad acting that you don't want to risk another non-professional. So, may I write for you instead? Obviously, I don't want you to hire me cold. I understand that writ- ing for TV is an oft-times compli- cated process, full of both highs and lows. So, to give you a taste of my script-writing machine, here are some of my ideas: First, you should have a nice girl on the show - someone like Brenda or Donna on 90210. Nice, but still with an amazing body that they get to show off (hey, this does take place at the beach after all). This nice girl role should be the show's anchor, a girl that other high school girls across America can emulate and starve themselves to look like.

Besides, I'm sure that many Sandman readers would disagree with my assessment of such things, anyway. This is literature, folks. Come up with your own interpretations.

As bands bite and claw for ra- dio air time and a shrinking con- sumer dollar, everybody's trying to sound like Hootie or Pearl Jam or whatever rock and roll sensation is burning up the charts this month. A lot of it is pretty lame (believe it or not, TEC readers often see the cream of our promo CD crop), with bands playing riffs that were worn out in 1975 and singing lyrics that sounded cliche before rock was even born. A lot of young bands just leave their influences dangling like so many flaccid penises poking out through carelessly open zippers. The shamelessness of this kind of musi- cal name-dropping is just as obscene and. lo me, offensive as those ex- posed members would be to a blue- haired grandmother. Pee Shy is a refreshing change from all that This four-piece outfit from Tampa, FL, while not exactly going where no one has gone before, at least takes their varied influences and does something with them. So while I can hear some Sonic Youth guitar progressions on Pee Shy's debut album, Who Let All the Monkeys Out?, they mix it up with cello, piano and subtle accordion. And while the lyrics and vocal har- monies sometimes remind me of Liz Phair and Jill Solbule, Pee Shy is angrier and more poetic than both of them. This is feminist pop at its best: it doesn't make an issue of feminism, it simply exudes feminine power. If you can't deal with strong women, that's your problem. Pee Shy seems aware that they're subverting some- thing, but doesn't let it control their creative process. And speaking of subversion, let's look at my favorite Pee Shy tune, "Little Dudes On this one, vocalists Cindy Wheeler and Jenny Juristo sweetly harmonize about the joys of seducing young men. How young? "Well I ain't old enough to be your mom they sing, "but you were six years old when I went to the prom While molesting teenagers is part of the proud rock and roll tra- dition, the male rock icons of the 70s were never quite so blunt What they romanticized, this song makes both ridiculous and sleazy. With "Little Dudes Pee Shy has sub- verted a sexist stereotype, shocked one group of people, made another laugh, and come off looking like creepy perverts, all in the space of one song! These women mean business! They get down to that business less successfully in "Dance Motherfucker The track ends with Wheeler going off on a power fan- tasy rant in which she takes a gun to all those sexist bastards out there. While this kind of thing still has power, I've seen it before. The subtle approach of "Little Dudes" is more original and ultimately works bet- ter. Still, with its obscene title and bleakly angry tone, this is one of the most memorable songs on the al- bum. Other highlights include "Ode to Nic a song about the joys of vari- ous legal addictions (nicotine, alco- hol, love, pain). Then there's the. awe-inspiring dichotomy of the won- derfully poetic "Red Ink" (which fea- tures the gorgeous line, "In unspeak- able flowery language, my hands cramp with my fingers bent") and the bluntly-titled "There's No Room for Your God-Forsaken Baby And finally, there's "Fossil Fuel a spoken word piece about getting trapped in a cave on the set of Land of the Lost and having messy sex just minutes before the rescue party arrives. Forget roots rock and all its con- nected styles. With the male rock world becoming so constipated and derivative, feminist rock is the way to go. Female artists like Liz Phair, Jill Solbule, PJ Harvey, Tori Amos, Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon and even Courtney Love seem to be the only people really saying anything worth paying attention to.

Tne last stories have dealt with the final fate of Morpheus and its aftermath. Along the way, Gaiman and a ro- tating staff of artists have given us sto- ries that would turn your stomach and stories that warm the cockles of your heart (wherever those are). In the stomadvchurning category is the infamous issue six, dubbed by many the "Diner of the Damned" is- sue. In this story, a madman with the power to make people act on their slightest dreams and desires takes over a diner. The ghastly results include a woman (the lover of a major character in a later storyline) who has her eyes gouged out, a man who nails his hand to a table, and all sorts of strange and violent sexual acts. What makes all this mutilation and depravity more than mere sensa- tion and gore is the horrifying revela- tion that everything came out of the victims' own heads. Idle curiosity makes us think about things we would never actually do unless we were under the influence of some outside power. The heart-warming stuff generally comes in the form of small moments in the midst of a bunch of harrowing events. In the final issue, for example, the story focuses on William Shakespeare as he writes The Temped, his final play. While he struggles with his desire to be done with it, and with writing itself, we get some very real moments with his flighty daughter and practical wife. And all that is wrapped around epic stories and strange storytelling devices and a sense of something truly ancient If that all sounds like a big mess, I suppose it is in places. But over the course of eight years, it all made sense somehow. And the thread that con- nects it all is Gaiman's study of myth and its place in the modern world. The Sandman is a wonderful read- ing experience. Now that it's over, most of the run is collected in affordable paperback editions, easily found and read by any interested parties. What I've discussed here barely scratches the surface of this series' true depth, so give it a shot if you really want to un- derstand. On a scale of one to 10, The Sand- man rates a 10.

Also, let's make sure we put her into some interesting situa- tions. Dramatic situations. How about featuring a sexpot co-star that wants to steal her buff bod boyfriend? That idea always riles th feathers of your target audi- ence. Or maybe do a story with a high school teacher that has more on his mind when he asks our hero- ine to "stay after school Let's give our lead chick another nice girl friend who desperately wants to have sex with her beau, but can't quite decide whether or not she wants to go all the way. Great ideas, huh? Please write me back and let me know what you think. I'm eagerly awaiting your re- sponsescomments. Your newest screenwriter, Kevin. Dear Mr. Spelling: Got your letter today and I'm stunned. You've already done all of those things with the show? It's only been on three times! And the nice girl you got for the lead is Keri Russell? Didn't she used to be on the Mickey Mouse Club, as well as assorted acne medicine commer- cials? Man, Walt Disney must be bobsledding in his grave about that. And you did give your son Randy a role? A lead role? Hey, I was kid- ding when I wrote that he should be acting. Randy? Ugh. Okay, okay. I can adapt There's really nothing I can do about the acting talent on your show, but I do apologize for the show sugges- tions. I should have known that those ideas sounded familiar, but I thought it was because they were all used on 90210. I never realized that they were already popping up on Shores. My mistake. But a good writer is never daunted. I mean, Joe Eszterhaus (of Jade and Showgirls fame) has been writing noxious crap for years now, but he persevered until the movie- going public brought their tastes down to his level. I got a million ideas! Wait, here are some more: How about one of the charac- ters having a conflict with their es- tranged, no-good dad? Maybe we can beef up the alcoholic idea and have someone drink and drive, get into a wreck, and almost die. What a season finale, huh? Oh, and how about a guest ap- pearance from one of the popular actors from one of your other shows? Jason Priestly playing a young surgical resident that has to save our drunken teen's life, while the other cast members stand around in the waiting room reflect- ing back (through the use of nu- merous clips from previous shows) on their wounded friend's misad- ventures. Jennie Garth as an Alcoholics Anonymous caseworker? Guaran- teed ratings! Throw in someone who's a little depressed and sui- cidal, and you got the makings of good drama, not to mention a pull for sweeps week! Get back to me jPOjjr from page 7 please! Sincerely, Kevin. Dear Mr. Spelling: Sorry, I goofed again. I didn't realize that your main nice girl's dad was estranged from the family, and you already have those storylines planned out for the sea- son. Also didn't catch Brian Aus- tin Greene's guest spot. He didn't play a surgical resident, did he? I had always envisioned that part for Jason Priestly. And to have a guest appearance planned for Tori, too? Man! Well, I'm afraid I have to ad- mit something. I got those ideas from 90210 also. Except the hospi- tal show. That idea came from when Jaclyn Smith was shot by some cop killer bullets on Charlie s Angels. In fact, all of these ideas were pulled together from a mishmash of TV shows ranging from ABC Afterschool Specials to Saved By the Bell. You see, I simply flipped through old issues of TV Guide and read the plot summaries of your past shows, even the really bad one with Drew Barrymore and Jennifer Beals. There was absolutely noth- ing there fresh or original (and still isn't). All of it was derivative and silly. But I see you've already de- cided to go that same route with Malibu Shores, so I suppose you don't need my help. Your writers can do what I did: go through TV Guide. Oh well. That's show biz. You can get your other hack writ- ers to come up with stuff. I am very sorry to bother you. Say "Hi" to Tori for me. Sincerely, Kevin. P.S. One last idea pitch. Un- wantedunexpected pregnancy? How about that? My people will get in touch with your people. P.P.S. On a scale of one to ten, Malibu Shores rates an unoriginal, clap-trappy 2, even though I can't for the life of me even figure out why. Must be something I ate. that they play. The fact of the matter is that this album is not much of a change. It's the same stuff that Iggy's been doing on all his albums in recent years. That's good, but change is bet- ter in this day and age. But can you blame him for stay- ing where he is? He's spent his career making money off of writing the mu- sic and lyrics that he is comfortable with and saying screw the rest That is the one thing about Iggy Pop that I think we all can admire, his ability to be himself no matter what circum- stances may stand in his way. As far as the lyrics go, Iggy is pretty much straightforward in his message. In "To belong" Iggy says, "A bird is sitting on the pavement, some- one broke his wing Now that bird is going nowhere, and he's suffering True, the lyrics themselves are very simple and straight to the point; how- ever, could Iggy be reflecting back on his past? Maybe he has felt like that bird before, feeling like he was going nowhere, a feeling that none of us are strangers to. We just don't like to talk about it or think about Iggy does! That's what makes him Iggy! Believe it or not Iggy Pop is and always will be a true revolutionary musician who has, is, and will continue to influence artists that bless our air- waves today. Overall, I would have to say that I am pretty impressed with Iggy and his music. Not for the fact that after all these years he can still sell records, but for the mind behind the man. In a time when we didn't need to hear it he sung it and it was heard! Maybe he's not at the peak of his career, but even in this downward spiral, he's still Iggy.

The Pirates would sneak out of Harrisonburg with two wins in the three game series with the defend- ing regular season champion James Madison Dukes. The Pirates were coming off a three game tear after sweeping con- ference opponent William and Mary ito open up the season, but the Bucs knew going in that this was a totally different type of situation that they ?would be facing. Instead of facing an improving squad at home the Bucs ;would face a proven squad on the road. "Not only is Madison a tough ball club, but playing on a turf infield, you Iget a different look when it comes to Score by innings: Campbell East Carolina hard grounders and so forth Coach Gary Overton said. That's right folks, the infield at Harrisonburg is astroturf, which speeds play up con- siderably. "When most clubs , like our- selves, come in and play on this artifi- cial surface, and are not used to see- ing the surface, they are caught off guard Overton said. This was not the case however as the Bucs rung up the Dukes 5-3 in the first half of the series opening doubleheader. Overton's troops knew going in that this would be a challenge at the plate getting runs across. "No doubt this is one of the best, if not the best pitching staffs in the conference, so we had to go in and make some noise early from the plate Overton said. RHE 000 001 031 - 5 12 1 010 000 200-3 9 0 The pitching staff was no joke with the dukes denying the Pirates a run until the eighth inning. Trailing 3-0 in the top of the eighth, the Pi- rate offense had seen enough, explod- ing for the five runs needed to open the series with a win. "Gordon, for JMU, pitched a fine game with a shutout up to seven in- nings, our club once again with timely hitting and getting the hard fought win Overton said. In the eighth inning explosion, the junior right fielder Chris Glanz set off the fuse by knotting up the Sec BASE page 12 Who's next?

These young ladies barely have enough players to field a team, but so far this spring season they have played well together and are currently unde- feated. "We did not have any official matches during the fall defensive wing Kelly Miller said. "A lot of prac- tices and scrimmages were played during 'Fall Ball We have a solid group of players that play together as a team. Also, you will never hear any- one whine about playing time This team is filled with key play- ers. A good mixture of newcomers and savvy veterans. Miller and Kelly Wehman are key defensive newcom- ers that hold off opponents at defen- sive wings. Stacy Jones, played goalie in their recent victory and Addy Fitzsimmons runs the show at cover point Julie Bourgiouse is a top goal- scoring threat at the center position while Laura Stockett is in the point position. "Our victory at Appalachian State was the result of some good play by many of the girls Wehmann said. "We basically ran them off of their own field. The score only read an 8-5 final score, but we really dominated. Stacy had some incredible saves in goal, Julie scored four goals and Britt and Joyce added two apiece. Kelly, also, had a huge game on defense Practices are a must for any ath- letic team, because it builds stamina, skill-level and helps the players play together as a team. ECU'S practices are held from 4-5:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays on the fields behind the Allied Health Building. These practices require a strenuous workout on the field and a nice "cool-down" type of team gathering after to relax and discuss strategies. ECU'S next game will be after the Easter break on April 20th here against arch-rival UNC-W. This should be a pivotal game in the women's sea- son as they try to remain unbeaten. "We have been looking forward to this match all season Jones said. "They are our number one foe and they are supposed to have a fairly poised team. I think we will be just fine if we stick to our game plan, take control early and do not let the oppo- nent back in it This tactic seems to work, so why change it?"

Members of the win- ling team included Bruce Joyner, ulietteGunther, Lisa Klein and David Ac Daniel. The Residence Hall division was offered for the first time this year and "Spleefs IV" coasted to victory by up- ending the "King Pins" in the divisional title match. Steve Roberts, Judd Price, Todd Lambdin and Clay Craven sup- plied the strikes, spares and enthusi- asm to carry the "Spleefs" to the crown. "Delta Zeta" won the sorority di- vision in a one-night flurry accumulat- ing the most pins among the opposi- tion.

Brian "Cutter Washer" Jones, Damean Albright Robby Brogdon and Damian Corbit comprised the wining "Alpha Sigma Phi B" team. In addition to the conclusion of the bowling playoffs, several individu- als distinguished themselves by win- ning divisional titles in the basketball One-on-One tournament in Christenbury Gym. Among the women, Emily "Hope" Murray's outside shoot- ing and slashing drives proved too much for "CSC" teammate Tomeiko Morris as she won the 5'5" and under division while Darlene Boone captured the 5 and over division over Allison Kemp. In the Men's 61" and over, Brad Thompson's quickness and leaping abil- ity proved to be the undoing of Jay "Million Moves" Flowe as he captured the prized t-shirt Thompson got off to a slow start in the finals due to the absence of offi- cials to yell at but recovered in time to display smooth offensive skills and off- set Flowe's flashy dribbling and power moves. Semi-finalists in this division were David Ehrmann and Eddie Kemp. In the Men's 6'0" and under division, which featured the largest numbers of players, James Ray bested William Seavey in the final in a hard-fought match. Semi-finalists for this division were Mario Re and Tee Kemp. Strangely ab- sent from the title contest was Vu "Ra- dar Range" Donie who was forced to fly out and forfeit his first round match in order to fulfill a 10 day contract with the NBA's Vancouver Grizzlies.

SID - The ECU women's tennis team won all six singles matches and also won the doubles point to post 7- 0 victory over the Campbell Lady Cam- els on Tuesday. Freshman Anne Svae was victo- rious at No. 1 singles for ECU (10-3), earning a 6-2,6-1 win over Campbell's Megan Cannon. Sophomore Rachel Cohen moved her spring record to 11- 1 with a 6-0, 6-1 win over Jennifer weathers at No. 2. Seniors Allison DeBastiani, Chelsea Earnhardt and Lisa Hadelman didn't lose a game en route to post- ing victories at Nos. 3-5 singles, re- spectively. At. No. 6, freshman Catherine Morgan outlasted Buffy Taldonio in three sets, 6-1, 0-6, 64. In doubles, the No. 1 team of SvaeCohen earned an 8-1 decision over the lady camels' top team. The No. 2 combination of Earnhardt DeBastiani and the No. 3 duo of HadelmanMorgan were also victori- ous. Deron Rippey Chuck Jones SID - The ECU men's basketball team will be without two players as the Pirates look ahead to the 1996-1997 season, according to Head Coach Joe Dooley. Dooley said Monday that &6 forward Chuck Jones, who was a junior this season has been dismissed from the squad for violation of team rules. At the same time, the Pirate coach announced that 6-2 guard Deron Rippey has left school for personal reasons. Jones, from Kinston, N.C averaged 1.5 points and 1.7 rebounds while playing 8.6 minutes per game Rippey, a junior this season also, played his first season at ECU after transferring from Garden City (Kan.) College. The native of Brooklyn, N.Y. averaged 6.8 points and 2.9 rebounds last season. Death brings concern about weight AP - The last time Eric Gregg saw John McSherry, the two umpires made light of their weight problems. "How's your diet going, big guy?" McSherry asked in spring training. "Terrible Gregg answered. "Keep up the good work McSherry smiled. It was a moment Gregg recalled Tuesday, a day after his friend died following a collapse on the field dur- ing the Montreal-Cincinnati opener. And it came on a day when base- ball was forced to turn its attention to a familiar issue: Should more be done to make sure its umpires are physically fit? "The health and weight of our umpires is always a concern Na- tional League vice president Katy Feeney said. "We can require that they take physicals, and we do she said. "We can recommend and encourage that they try to keep themselves in the best shape possible. But as for weight restrictions or limits, there's nothing we can do legally Certainly, an umpire's lifestyle is not a healthy one. Umpires are on the road almost the whole season, rarely in a city for more than three days. They stay up late, often eat their biggest meals around midnight and then go to sleep. They get no breaks during games, standing on the field for all nine innings. They get yelled at much of that time. "They have irregular eating hab- its, they have irregular sleeping hab- its. They're in and out of airports and hotels all the time umpires union head Richie Phillips said Tuesday. "What I'd like to see is workout facilities for the umpires in every city and a trainer in every city to check their weight, their blood pressure and their stress levels he said. mmmmmmmmmmmmm "These are things we ve asked for and will continue to ask for Sometimes, their size is their only defense against "We can recommend and encourage that they try to keep themselves in the best shape possible ?

McSherry had been scheduled to see his doctor Tuesday. He was to have had the appointment earlier, but didn't want to miss opening day. Phillips said he talked with NL president Len Coleman in the last few nonths about McSherry's weight. McSherry. friends said, had knee problems that had made it in- creasingly difficult for him to work out and stay in shape. The average weight of the NL's 32 umpires is 214 pounds, with Gregg (325). Joe West (275), Jerry Layne (249). Harry Wendelstedt (248) and Bruce Froemming (238) the heaviest. The average in the AL is 204 pounds, with Ken Kaiser (288), Greg Kosc (255) and Tim McClevland (250) weighing the most. NL umpires, for the first time, were required to take their annual physical exams before the start of this season, Feeney said. McSherry, who was forced to leave four games in five years because of dizziness ECU from page 11 or dehydration, was checked in Feb- ruary. "John admittedly has struggled with his weight over the years, but there was no indication in his Feb- ruary physical that he shouldn't go back on the field Feeney said. "Ev- ery time he's had a problem, he's been thoroughly examined and cleared to resume umpiring Throughout its history, base- ball has had umpires who have been overweight. Of the officials in the four major sports, umpires are the least active during games. "Obviously, if they had to run up and down a court for an hour like a basketball referee, that would be different Feeney said. McSherry was once sent by the league to Duke University's weight- loss clinic, and he made at least one follow-up visit on his own. AL um- pire Tim Tschida said McSherry worked with Duke's nutritionists for a half-dozen years to improve his diet. Other umpires, such as Gregg, who has also gone to Duke's pro- gram, have been told by the league to lose weight. Froemming, after one annual checkup, underwent an angioplasty the same week. "We all knew that John was overweight NL umpire Paul Runge said. "John knew he was overweight. We all hoped that John would have helped himself more, but we never think it's going to happen to one of us !K Sports Writers Needed Applications are now being accepted for sports writers for summer sessions and fall session. Interested? Come by TEC today and fill out an application. program at ECU is so young, there has not been a post-season established yet. Hopefully, as the team grows in numbers and popularity among the public, a tournament of some sort will be established in the near future. The future looks bright for these players, but there is now a problem that could hinder that future. Cur- rently, ECU plays all its home games behind Allied Health. The fields are going to be destroyed to install new parking lots. For a team that is trying to build a popular reputation so it may attract more players, this is not going to help since they will have no field to play home games on. "Everyone is worried about what to do for next season Wehmann said. "I am not stressing too hard, because our school would not take away our playing field and not replace it with something else. If all else fails, we could possibly see about playing at a local middle or high school. We need an official home field if we continue to grow in the college club sport scene Almost everyone will be return- ing for play next fall for "Fall Ball The future is on the rise for these ECU women. A new playing field is what the players would like to see for next season since the club teams will be without playing fields next season. "1 agree with Kelly, I do believe we will have a field to play on Jones said. "We are only about 12 or 13 strong now, but I have talked to some girls who are eager to give lacrosse a try. I am really excited about our fu- ture and hope we roll on through the rest of this season with nothing but victories JB ASE from page 11 score with an RBI single followed by catcher Tim Flaherty's two run single to give the Bucs the lead for good. Sophomore pitcher Patrick Dunham hung tough for nine innings holding the Dukes to only three runs off of seven hits. Dunham also regis- tered 11 k's with only two walks. "The first ballgame of the series really set the tone for the whole week- end, I thought for our club Overton said. The Bucs would fall victim to a man in the "zone" in the second half of the doubleheader. Senior right hander Jeff Hafer threw his first ca- reer one hitter en route to a 4-0 shut- out over the Pirates. Bryan Smith took the mound for the Pirates, pitch- ing a solid game allowing only five JMU hits in six innings of play. "Although, we were shut out in the second game I still feel our over- all performance set the tone for Sun- day Overton said. ECU was feeling good about their chances on taking over the top spot in the standings going into the final game of the series. Overton would throw junior pitcher Chad Newton at the Dukes in what proved to be a good ole fashioned slug fest. The Pirate offense would regis- ter 18 runs off of 18 hits to come out of Harrisonburg with a 2 games to 1 series victory over JMU. "That was the first series Madison has lost at home since 1991. so we're very pleased with our performance and pleased at gaining the top spot in the CAA Overton said. The Pirates would move to 5-1 in CAA play which puts the Bucs in the top slot in the CAA going into a series with George Mason. "Going into the Madison series, we knew if we won the series that we would take the top spot so we had a lot to play for Overton said. The Pirates would ride a high go- ing into a one game series with Campbell, but would fall short as they dropped a heartbreaker to in-state ri- val Campbell 5-3. "It was a hard fought game. I felt that we really wanted it. but we just got beat Overton said. The Pirates took the early lead after Matt Buckley of Campbell walked a Pirate run in. That lead would hold until Willy Kingsbury knotted things up with a solo shot After the seventh inning stretch the Bucs would get some much missed offense, registering two runs off of a Lamont Edwards double followed by a Glanz RBI single to in- crease the lead to 3-1. "Our bull pen just couldn't hold the lead late in the game, but it was a hard fought contest" Overton said. Things fell apart for the Pirates when the Camels scored three runs capped off by a Brent Wyso blast into left field to give the Camels their first win at Harrington Field since 1988. "I felt we played with a lot of in- tensity, but we just couldn't hold the lead late in the ballgame Overton said. The Pirates will have to brush off and get back to work as they-will travel north to Fairfax, Virginia to face George Mason. The three game series following the exhibition in Kinston against the Indians, will start Saturday at high noon only to finish the three game affair on Sunday at high noon as well.
