(AP) - A Burke County fire that killed two children has prompted state officials to encourage social workers to check for smoke detectors during home visits in child abuse and ne- glect cases. Had social service officials al- ready been doing such checks, they might have prevented the deaths of 1-year-old Zacheriah and 3-year-old Angelica Cooper on March 1, accord- ing to child advocates and fire offi- cials.

Barbara Jeffers, 56, was last seen Tuesday night attending a meeting at Littleton Baptist Church, where she was the part-time secre- tary, authorities said. Up to 300 investigators and vol- unteers searched around the Lake Gaston area Friday and Saturday but found no sign of Jeffers, who is over- weight and suffers from diabetes and high blood pressure.

At least 30 people were injured when Sunday night's twister tore through northern Arkansas' Ozarks, doing much of the damage on the first big tourist weekend at the Holi- day Mountain Resort in Izard County. The tornado first hit the town of Allison in Stone County, bounced c er the White River into the Sylamore area of Izard County, about 80 miles north of Little Rock. FRENCHTOWN, Mont.

Officials believe the unidenti- fied victim found Sunday was a homeless person who had been riding the rails. An autopsy was scheduled for Monday. Crews had planned to be- gin removing chlorine from the first of three overturned tankers Sunday, but the work was postponed until Monday after the body was discov- ered.

Election controversy continues Some SGA leaders voice concern over rulings Tambra Zion Editor An announcement of review board decisions from an April 11 hear- ing evoked questions from the legis- lative body in last night's Student Gov- ernment Association (SGA) meeting. A few members of the SGA legis- lature were concerned about the re- view board's rulings for several rea- sons including the allegation by Jus- tin Conrad that it disrupts the checks and balances system which exists be- tween the legislative and judiciary branches. He said the legislature should rule on such decisions. According to election regulations, however, the Election Committee (made up of the 19 poll takers and the election chair and vice chair) re- tains sole responsibility for the elec- tions: if a complainant disagrees with an Election Committee decision, they can appeal to the review board, which then makes another ruling. During the April 10 meeting, the Elections Committee ruled not to hear complaints filed after a filing exten- sion was given during a special meet- ing called between Election Chair Penn Crawford, SGA Adviser and Dean of Students Ron Speier and the candidates on April 8. "The (election) rules say com- plaints are to be heard by poll ten- ders Crawford said when questioned about the special meeting on April 8. "I don't think it's fair for poll tenders to hear complaints about poll ten- ders SGA Speaker of the House Harry Bray recommended that the Election Committee not hear the additional complaints filed by Presidential can- didates John Lynch and Angie Nix and Secretarial candidate J. Miles Layton, because they were not filed within the 48 hours required by election regula- tions and because the April 8 meet- ing was not official. The Election Com- mittee decided to hear only the two original complaints filed by Nix and Lynch.

The incident hap- pened at approximately 1:35 a.m fol- lowing a dance that had been held at the Carmichael Gym, according to the UNC Police Department. A young man opened fire into the crowd stand- ing outside of the gym, shooting a man that had come out of the building. The two men had appar- ently exchanged words prior to the incident. Three ar- rests have been made, including the man who opened fire along with the other two men that accompanied him in the car. The man who opened fire was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon with the intent to kill. The men were visi- tors on campus that weekend. The man who was shot is in fair condition at the present time. He had been shot in the right leg with a bul- let, which had to be removed through surgery. This is the first occurrence of an incident of this nature at UNC. As a result of this incident, all but two late night events that were to be held on the campus have been canceled. "Our primary concern in doing this is the safety and security of the students here said Fred Schroeder, dean of students at UNC. Schroeder said that the stu- dents' reaction is one of surprise, not only because of the actual incident but also because of the action taken in canceling the events. There are a number of commit- tees that are involved in making a decision regarding the cancellation of student events. The Police Depart- ment, the National PanHellenic Council Commit- tee, the Dean of Students. Caro- lina Union (UNC student union), a Safety Commit- tee and an Emer- gencies Commit- tee were all in- volved. Students here at ECU have complained that the action taken isn't fair to the other students at UNC. "The incident that happened was just a random act said junior history major Lucas Berrini. "Why should all of the other students be penalized? It is right for them to look out for the students' safety, but they should realize that it was just one incident and hopefully it won't hap- pen again See SHOOT page 8 Technological advances at ECU are now making traditional lecture classes more interesting. Computer Information Services (CIS), along with the Vice Chancel- lor of Business Affairs Richard Brown, have teamed up to create the Multimedia Instruction Initiative (Mil). This new system will allow fac- ulty to integrate lessons and experi- ments with technology and comput- ers through the use of laptop and portable computers. Twelve teams of two faculty members each are currently working on the project. The teams were se- lected from some 80 proposals sub- mitted by the faculty. Most of them came from professors that already had experience with technology in the classroom. Mil was originally created in March 1995, when the 24 faculty pro- posals were sent out. However, it wasn't until September and October of that year when the equipment was received and CIS began to work with p ofessors on the project's develop- ment. "Many professors started out feeling very apprehensive about the whole idea said Ernest Marshburn, Associate Director of CIS. "It takes many extra hours of work. But they have all adapted quickly and are now enjoying it The project has continued to build on its foundation of a $13 mil- lion fiber optic system to move digi- See MEDIA page 8 "The incident that happened was just a random act" � Lucas Berrini, junior history major �. : � : � Photo Courtesy of ECU News Bureau Don Sexauer, center, demonstrates the use of a laptop computer in presenting an art lecture.

Fraternity does hard labor for Greenville shelter Each member to volunteer 36 hours a month in fall Debra Byrne StmffWHfr An ECU fraternity has volun- teered their much needed services to a local organization. This past weekend, Phi Kappa Psi did volunteer work at the Greenville Community Shelter lo- cated at 207 Manhattan Ave. The fraternity's philanthropy is the shel- ter. In previous years, Phi Kappa Psi has put on "Cool Aid" This event is a three band party which is held at the downtown Attic. Proceeds col- lected from this event are given to the shelter.

ECU has held Minority Visi- tation Day for the past eight years. Activities included five work- shops on choos- with a proposal that their fraternity do volunteer work for the shelter. This is the first year which they have done this. Volunteers worked from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. on Saturday and signed up for volunteer times on Sunday as well. The fraternity did various work such as spreading mulch, painting poles and doors and yard work. Savage said the day went really well. "We all worked hard for three hours and got a lot of work done Savage said. "This is something we hope to continue doing because we had a lot of fun doing it Member Randy Currin said they want to do this more. In the fall they plan to have each member of the fra- ternity volunteer at the shelter for 36 hours a month. "Volunteer work is badly needed at the shelter and all around Greenville Currin said. "It is over- looked in this city and a lot needs to be done. Anyone who wants to vol- unteer should because there is not a lot of money to build the grounds at the shelter or around the city Rommi Drozdov. executive direc- tor of the shelter said the fraternity has always volunteered for them, but this was the first time such a large group participated. She said the funds they raise from their "Cool Aid" band party has helped a great deal since 80 percent of their fund- ing comes from community groups. "It is a tremendous benefit to have them come out here Drozdov said. "We are a non-profit organiza- tion so we are short on funds. We could not have paid someone to come out here and do the work that they did for us There are plenty of volunteer opportunities at the shelter duringdyatime hours andweekends, inside and outside.

Jj is 21st Century f Young acting troupe's first performance on May 17th Marguerite Benjamin Assistant News Editor A junior majoring in middle grades education is being rewarded for his literary skills and contribu- tion to the arts. On May 17, a play called The Civil Outpost will premier at Cra- ven Community College. The au- thor of the play is W.A. Tony Spivey, a non-traditional, vocational reha- bilitation honor student. Spivey's play was adopted by a young acting troupe that had read some of Spivey's earlier work. The play has since been published and is scheduled for production in May. Spivey said he wrote his first play in senior high school in 1975. Later, he joined the Marine Corps where he said he did not have time to write. After his release from the Marines, Spivey said he went to Carteret Community College and later transferred to ECU for some creative writing classes. Spivey said a new class (Drama 260) was created at Craven Com- munity College (CCC) because of his work after the head of the fine arts division saw the written play and decided it would be useful as a graduation exercise. "They took my play (The Civil Outpost) and created a class so they could teach it. produce it and put it on Spivey said. Spivey said he entered college in order to become a writer but has since decided to pursue a career in teaching. "That does not mean I will give up writing Spivey said. "1 con- tinue to take all of the English and creative writing classes I can. Writ- ing is my passion Spivey said he has been asked by several organizations to con- tinue writing plays, and he plans to do so. Presently, Spivey is asso- ciated with Taylor-Spivey Produc- tions, an agency based in Havelock. "My goal is to continue to write until I am noticed he said. In many ways, Spivey has reached that goal. He is already a nationally published poet with his most recent publication having been in The Advocate, a literary journal based in New York. Spivey said he is now in the process of co-writing a novel which is almost complete. Spivey said he takes every opportunity he receives to write very seriously. John Taylor, a literary agent from Taylor-Spivey Productions said he is proud of Spivey's accom- plishments and that they are all worthy of merit. "Such talent is sometimes lost within a university of the size and stature of ECU Taylor told TEC.

Take for example, Chris Woolford, a senior economics major at the University of Chicago, who had four job offers to choose from this spring: one from a small merchant bank in Chicago, two from large in- vestment banks in New York and even one from the European Parliament in Brussels. Woolford, who will graduate near the top of his class, credits much of his success to an early start on the job search process. Last fall, he got a stack of resumes together and began sending them out to investment banks and consulting firms around the na- tion. Then, working through UC's ca- reer services office, he began lining up on-campus interviews with poten- tial employers. By January, he had scheduled as many as 20 interviews a week. "It was a very tiring process, just going through all the thank you let- ters he said.

In the end, Woolford accepted the job offer with the merchant bank in Chicago and will be making about $35,000 a year when he starts work in August. For other graduating seniors, the job search is more frustrating. Paula Simon, a nursing major at Viterbo College in LaCrosse. Wis sent her resume out to hospitals in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Oregon and Washington. So far. there have been no job offers for Simon. In fact, there have been no interviews, either - until to- day. At long last, she has an interview in April with an Albuquerque hospi- tal. "I kind of, like, begged for it she said. Frustrating. Tiring. Depressing. As graduation looms, these are the words many nervous seniors are us- ing to describe their job search. But the outlook for graduating seniors - and there are 1.2 million in the Class of 1996 - is optimistic. New college graduates can look forward to a friendlier job market coupled with significant increases in starting salaries, according to a new survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, a group that tracks the job search process. Overall, 53 percent of 359 career services offices surveyed said they expected to see increased recruiting on their campuses this spring. Recruit- ing, which includes the number of on- campus employer visits, interviews and job postings, is up compared to last year, the survey found.

These grads also can expect to receive a 2.5 percent higher starting salary this year - roughly $34,565. The em- ployers seeking out "techies" are soft- ware development companies, consult- ing firms and computer and business equipment manufacturers. Engineering grads are also in demand this year as a result of an in- crease in manufacturing opportuni- ties. Electrical, computer, mechanical and industrial engineers can look for- ward to a raise in starting salaries, to about $37,000. the survey said. Unfortunately, the students who endeavor in humanities and social sciences might not fare as well, the survey found. English grads can ex- pect an average staring salary of about $22,000, which is 1.6 percent lower than last year's salary. Starting sala- ries are also down 7.5 percent for so- ciology grads. to about $20,041.

At the same time, many univer- sity officials also expressed relief that an arrest had finally been made and that the attacks may be over. Even as federal investigators con- tinued to search for clues that would link the reclusive former mathemat- ics professor to the Unabomber at- tacks, those who knew him or had been targeted by Unabomber attacks shared their thoughts to college re- porters. The Unabomber's first victim was Buckely Crist, a Northwestern Univer- sity engineering professor who was not injured when a mail-bomb ex- ploded in 1978. Crist told the Daily Northwestern reporters that Kaczynski's arrest all but closed the case in his eyes. "I'm delighted the case has been resolved he told them. "It was a long, long time ago Ron Muersch. who graduated from a suburban Chicago high school with Kaczynski, told the Daily North- western he could not remember who the reclusive teenager's friends were. "I remember that he was very quiet Muersch, who is now a police detective, said. Northwestern's campus was the target of the Unabomber's first two attacks in the course of an 18-year bombing spree that would kill three and injure 23 others. "We were in kind of a special situ- ation here at Northwestern, because the story hit so close to home said Heather Lalley. a junior who is the assistant managing editor at the Daily Northwestern. "It's been on the minds of a lot of students, because it's gone on so long Lalley said. The arrest answered an important question for many Northwestern stu- dents, said Dennis Brack, a junior who is the editor-in-chief of the Daily Northwestern. "There's been so much specula- tion that he went here Brack said. "That kind of put that all to an end The opposite was true at Harvard University and the University of Michi- gan at Ann Ar- bor, where stu- dent reporters found them- selves writing about one of their own. Kaczynski re- ceived a bachelor's de- gree in math- ematics from Harvard in 1962. and he completed his Ph.D. in the same subject at Michi- gan in 1967. According to The Harvard Crim- son. Kaczynski was remembered by some classmates as a serious student. although quiet. "I think he was a pretty good math major. I knew the name, and 1 "I think he was a pretty good math major.

Joshua takes flying les- sons, and it was not clear whether he or his flight instructor would be piloting the plane that his mother, Lisa Hathaway, indicated would make the flyover. The service was to be held in the child's hometown on the Cali- fornia coast nearly 40 miles south of San Francisco. Burial was planned in a nearby cemetery where she used to ride her bike. Jessica was attempting to be- come the youngest pilot to cross the continent when her small plane crashed in Wyoming on Thursday. Her father qnd fliglt inst Oren shouldn't be allowed to fly. Others have wondered whether the dream of flying across the country was Jessica's or her parents A funeral Mass was said Mon- day morning for the flight instruc- tor, Joe Reid. and more than 500 people attended a vigil for him Sun- day evening. Lloyd Dubroff's fu- neral was planned for Tuesday. Jessica took off on Wednesday from Half Moon Bay, Calif and was headed to Falmouth, Mass. Her single-engine plane went down in Cheyenne shortly after she took off from that stopover in an icy rainstorm. Investigators have said the plane was over- loaded. The attempt at the record ap- parently had already failed on the first leg, when Reid took the con- trols several times, according to Jessica's mother. See FLY page 7 knew of him said Donald P. Ballow. a graduate of the class of 1962 and a fellow mathematics concentrator, to The Crimson. Valerie MacMillan. a Harvard University sopho- more and news re- porter at The Crim- son, said she and other reporters im- mediately began call- ing alumni who might have know Kaczynski. "That wasn't very fruitful she said, explaining that many alumni had trouble recalling a quiet classmate they may have known more than 30 years ago. Several professors who knew Kaczynski. such as his adviser, are dead. As far as reaction on the Harvard campus, "people are surprised. People are talking about it MacMillan said. But. it would be different if it was a current student she said. "It was 1962 - obviously none of us were here Several professors at Michigan did remember Kaczynski. who spent his graduate years there before accept- ing a short-lived job teaching math at the University of California at Berke- ley. Michigan mathematics professor Peter Duren. who worked with Kaczynski on his doctoral thesis de- scribed him to The Michigan Daily as "individualistic and meticulously neat "He was very independent, very serious and very smart Duren said. "A real analytical mind. When he was at Michigan. 1 don't think he was po- litical. If he's the Unabomber. that's a different person than the one 1 knew Kaczynski dedicated his life to his studies while he was at the university. Duren said. "At the time he was really wrapped up in mathematics Duren said. Another Michigan professor. Charles Morris, said he was search- ing for a link between Kaczynski and the late James McConnell as leader in the area of behaviorism, and told the Daily that "someone could have been mightily offended" by McConnell's outspoken approach. "Behaviorism takes the view that human beings are largely control- lable Morris said. "The Unabomber might have taken that as offense to his philosophy However, a UM spokesperson said there was no known connection between Kaczynski and the profes- sor who was a Unabomber victim. At the University of California at Berkeley, where the Unabomber struck twice and Kaczynski taught for two years in the 1960s, the Daily Californian?, staff writers stumbled across an odd connection that they called "an eerie coincidence During a search of school records, they discovered that the small cottage Kaczynski lived in while a faculty member was later rented to Rosebud Abigail Denovo. She was an activist who was killed by police four years ago when she broke into Berkeley Chancellor Chang-Lin Tien's home wielding a machete. And although Berkeley spokes- person Marie Felde was telling report- ers that "people don't remember Kaczynskil the student reporters managed to find people who did. "We talked to a couple of pro- fessors who were here when he worked here said Erin Allday. a se- nior and news editor for the Daily Californian. The professors described Kaczynski as "reclusive" and "retir ing For the most part, their reac tion was �"wow. 1 can't believe it Allday said. "I just remember that he was' very quiet and withdrawn said Ber keley math professor Donald Saranson to the Daily Californian.

' Cpl. John C. Mayfield III. 21, and Cpl. Joseph Vlacovsky, 25, fear the "genetic dogtags" could be used against them in the future, though they haven't said precisely how. They plan to call as an expert witness the co-author of a study- that found that many people with genes linked to certain diseases have been discriminated against by insurance companies, employers and others. The Marines face six months in jail and a dishonorable discharge if convicted of willfully disobeying an order. The non-jury trial got under way in front of a military judge at Kaneohe Marine Base.

The plan was to save the samples for 75 years for use in iden- tifying remains. But because of the legal challenge and congressional pressure, the Pentagon announced last week it will keep the samples for only 50 years, strictly limit the circumstances under which they can be released, and allow person- nel to have their specimens de- stroyed when they leave the service. Dr. Paul Billings of the Stanford University School of Medi- cine, who will testify for the defense at the court-martial, said that the Pentagon program still lacks safe- guards to protect people's privacy. "This is the very first case of anybody in the United States be- ing threatened with jail time and potentially a fine for not contrib- uting to a DNA bank Billings said. Billings was co-authcr of a study, published in Science and En- gineering Ethics, that said 455 of 917 people who responded to a questionnaire reported they had been discriminated against for ge- netic reasons. Although not sick, they lost jobs, insurance, chances at adoption and educational oppor- tunities. Eleven states have passed laws making it a crime for insurers or employers to discriminate against people because of their genetic makeup.

In the Hawaii cast, defense at- torney Eric Seitz has said the or- der to submit blood samples was unlawful, and the American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaii has agreed, citing the Fourth Amend- ment protection against unreason- able searches. "The law is clear that the mandatory compulsory taking of blood and bodily fluid constitutes a search, and is therefore subject to scrutiny said Vanessa Chong, executive director of the ACLU. Marine spokesman Capt. John Milliman said the case has nothing to do with the Constitution: "This is merely to find out whether or not these two Marines are guilty of dis- obeying a lawful order as given by a superior officer Seitz said Sunday he had hoped the Pentagon's softened stance would lead the Marine Corps to drop the charges. But Milliman said the decision was not expected to affect the trial. The two Marines have also filed a class-action lawsuit to stop the program. The case is pending be- fore a federal appeals court. Another service member, Air Force Sgt. Warren Sinclair, faces a court-martial April 25 on the same charge for refusing to give blood for a DNA sample. Sinclair, stationed at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois, told The New York Times he felt the order vio- lated his constitutional rights. "I put a high value on my genes he said.

Clinton negotiates Korean peace talks CHEU-DO, South Korea (AP) - President Clinton will propose uncon- ditional peace talks between North and South Korea with the United States and China as participants, U.S. officials said. The president was expected to seek final approval for the initiative in a meeting with South Korea Presi- dent Kim Young-sam on this resort island Tuesday morning, Korean time. Discussions about the proposal have been under way quietly for about two months, an offi- cial said, speak- ing on condition of anonymity. Until now, the United States has insisted that North and South Korea negotiate directly with each other on a perma- nent peace ac- cord to the long- unsettled Korean conflict. North Korea has tried to force the United States into direct nego- tiations, which would put South Korea into a sec- ondary role. Clinton's initia- tive is a new dip- lomatic formula for a peace pro- cess. Some U.S. told reporters he was optimistic about maintaining peace on the Korean Pen- insula, which was devastated in the 1950-53 war in which the United States and its U.N. allies backed the South against the North and its Chi- nese and Soviet defenders. The war ended with an armistice' instead of a formal peace treaty; the Demilitarized Zone was established to keep the two sides separated Today, the DMZ is the most heavily fortified border area in the world. "We're work- We're working on ways not only to keep the nuclear problem under control and eventually eliminate it, but also to try to do what we can to promote an ultimate reconciliation and an end to the conflict � Clinton mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ADDA SECOND PIZZA Equal or Lesser Value Small S5 Large $6 X-Large $7 2 large pizzas for $11.00 for 11 days 2 large 1-topping pizzas.

That way, North Korea could claim the United States was reacting to its move, in a form of concession. Clinton has tried to make peace- making a hallmark of his presidency, boasting of efforts in the Mideast, Haiti, Bosnia and Northern Ireland. Any movement in the 43-year-old Ko- rean stalemate would be an election- year plus for the president After a 20-hour flight from Wash- ington, Clinton arrived here before dawn. Accompanied by his wife, Hillary, the president was greeted by Kim and his wife at a seaside hotel. "We're glad to be here the president said, complimenting Kim on the beauty of the island in the early morn- ing hours. Kim said he hoped Clinton would be able to see more of the island at- tractions and the president replied, "Time will take care of that" In their talks at a hotel abutting the East China Sea, Clinton also was expected to reaffirm to Kim that the United States is committed to defend- ing the South while urging the North to stop violating the border area. About 37,000 U.S. troops are sta- tioned in South Korea.

Their aim is to cut out the South, which they regard as a puppet of America. Defense Secretary William Perry, at a news conference in Tokyo on Monday, said he told Japanese officials the administration believes North Korea's staged troop movements in- side a sensitive part of the DMZ known as the Joint Security Area were more of a political statement than a sign of impending hostilities. "I pointed out that I thought this provocation was political in basis, not military - not leading to a military conflict but was intended to try to force the United States into bilateral meetings with the North Koreans to try to reach a final peace agreement Perry said.

NEW YORK AP) - The soggy cereal business got some snap and crackle Monday, as Post Cereal said it would cut prices an average of 20 percent and issue a new coupon that will apply to all its cereals. Post is betting that the price cuts will give a boost to the business, which shrank slightly last year and has been flat so far this year. Post's own cereal sales have been declining, analysts said. "We expect this will reignite growth in the ready-to-eat cereal mar- ket said Mark Leckie, executive vice president and general manager of the Post Cereal division of Kraft Foods, Inc. The price changes are expected to reach store shelves in two or three weeks. The company won't say ex- actly when the new coupons will ap- pear. For Irene Cotton of McCook, Neb 20 percent isn't good enough. "At times you can get a box of Post Toasties for 99 cents, and we'll buy that, but when they get up above that the best thing to do is just let them sit on the shelf she said. Some of Post's biggest competi- tors said they had already cut prices in recent years and Post was simply catching up. Kellogg spokesman Anthony Hebron declined to discuss how his company might respond to Post's gambit. At General Mills, spokesman Austin Sullivan said no changes were planned. The cut brings Post's suggested retail price for a 17.2 oz. box of Spoon Size Shredded Wheat down to $2.99 from $3.88; while 20 oz. of Premium Raisin Bran will cost $2.99 instead of $4.13. Actual retail prices are determined by individual stores. The move means Post's corpo- rate parent.

Israeli aircraft bombs shake up Lebanon, Beirut BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - Israeli -aircraft and artillery bombarded (Hezbollah targets in Beirut and south- ern Lebanon on Monday in an effort io ratchet up pressure on Lebanon and Syria to cripple the guerrillas. Israel said it was ready to negoti- ate an end to its 5-day-old offensive, but would not initiate talks. Hezbollah, however, sent more rock- lets crashing down on northern Israel and claimed to have dozens of suicide �bombers ready to attack. "Our human bomb brigade is going to concentrate vengeance on Israel. We'll strike at the United States when it directly intervenes against us said Hezbollah's second-in-com- mand, Sheik Nairn Qassem. "We have deployed a shield of suicide bombers in the south ready to devastate any enemy ground force that dares to attempt a thrust into south Lebanon. We'll have them an- nihilated Qassem told the Lebanese Broadcasting Corp. in a televised in- terview. Hamas, the Palestinian group whose suicide bombings have Israel reeling, said it has joined the rocket- ing of northern Israel from Lebanon. A spokesman called on Hamas activ- ists in the West Bank and Gaza Strip "to carry out their assigned missions Seven Lebanese civilians were killed and 20 people were wounded in the Israeli attacks Monday, Leba- nese police reported. Eight Israelis were slightly wounded by Hezbollah rockets. All told, 35 people have been killed and 133 wounded since skir- mishes between Hezbollah and Israel ignited into a major Israeli offensive last week. Apart from one Israeli sol- dier, the dead have all been Lebanese civilians. Despite a rush of diplomatic ac- tivity, prospects seemed dim for a cease-fire. Secretary of State Warren Chris- topher sought ways to end the blood- shed in talks with Lebanese leaders and the foreign ministers of Israel and Syria, which has 40,000 troops in Lebanon and controls its government Israel hopes the air raids and the hundreds of thousands of fleeing refu- gees will pressure Lebanon and Syria to disarm the Iranian-backed Hezbollah. For years, the Shiite Mus- lim guerrillas have attacked Israeli troops and fired rockets at Israel to drive Israeli troops from southern Lebanon. Apache helicopter gunships fired rockets Monday at the Hezbollah strongholds of Mraije and Bir Hassan in Beh at's southern slums. Minutes later, Israeli fighter-bombers hit the Bsaleem power station on the hills overlooking the city, sending flames and black smoke billowing into the sky. In southern Lebanon on Monday. Israeli jets, helicopter gunships and artillery battered suspected guerrilla hideouts in communities that have been largely abandoned by residents. Guerrillas have fired rockets on Israel from the market town of Nabatiyeh and the southern port city of Tyre, and those districts have been heavily hit Pillars of black smoke shrouded Nabatiyeh, largely deserted by its 50,000 inhabitants, as buildings burned Monday. A Hezbollah-run hos- pital was also hit. Israel urged the few people still in Nabatiyeh and 10 villages around it to flee. Fourteen other villages near Tyre received similar warnings. The Israeli offensive has driven some 400,000 residents of the south - 10 percent of Lebanon's population - from their homes. Hezbollah claims it has suffered no casualties in the Israeli onslaught There was no way to verify that claim. It was clear that the offensive had failed to curb the attack on northern Israel: Hezbollah fired 90 Katyusha rockets Sunday and unleashed inter- mittent salvos Monday. The Israeli army said several Katyusha barrages hit Galilee on Mon- day, slightly wounding eight people. One rocket fell outside a synagogue in the border town of Kiryat Shemona. Schools and businesses in towns within Katyusha range were closed, and dozens of children were bused from Nahariya, an Israeli resort town on the Mediterranean Sea, to central Israel on Monday. Other children had been evacuated earlier. In Nahariya, Prime Minister Shimon Peres said Israel was prepared to talk peace, but would not set talks in motion: Truces with Hezbollah that Israel has initiated have proven frag- ile, he said. "We didn't turn and will not turn to anyone Peres said. "On the other hand, if requests are being made to us, we will respond to such requests and consider them Asked what kind of agreement would satisfy Israel, Peres replied: "Anything that will guarantee secu- rity in the northern part of hraeL.provided it will really bring back the security The intensity of the campaign against Hezbollah, while not unprec- edented, has been colored in part by Peres' desire to prove to Israeli vot- ers before May 29 elections that he is not soft on security. Prime Minister Rafik Hariri of Lebanon, who has visited Syria and Egypt in an attempt to end the blood- shed, warned in Paris: "If Israel con- tinues its attacks on Lebanon, we can say goodbye to the peace process Bill to reach General Assembly in 1997 RALEIGH (AP) - Some North Carolina doctors and scientists are asking the state to protect people pre- disposed to serious illness from dis- crimination by health insurance com- panies. The state advisory committee on cancer control asked its staff to study insurance protections in other states to help craft legislation for North Carolina. The committee wants to submit a bill to the General Assem- bly by early 1997. "To punish people for something they can't change is not rational and it's not fair said Dr. Edison Liu, a cancer researcher and physician at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. So far, at least 15 states have passed or proposed laws protecting people from discrimination based on genetic testing. Some prevent insur- ance companies from using test re- sults to justify denying coverage, charging higher premiums or limit- ing benefits. Oregon and California prohibit insurance companies from even inquiring about genetic tests. While the state Department of Insurance has received no complaints from North Carolinians about genetic testing leading to higher premiums, researchers have documented cases elsewhere. Opposition from the insurance industry is ex- pected. The News & Observer of Ra- leigh reported. "Insurance companies need to be able to assess risk said Richard Coorish, spokes- man for the Health Insurance Associa- tion of America. "Without assessment, premiums for everyone would be higher There is some precedent for such regulation. North Carolina was the first state during the 1970s to bar the practice of charging higher pre- miums to blacks carrying the sickle cell anemia gene. So far, scientists have identified genes that, when mutated, increase the risk of breast cancer, Alzheimer's disease and several other disorders. Tests for the mutations are either available or in the works. "We're picking off one gene af- ter another said Dr. Joseph Pagano. director of the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, where Liu also works. "Eventually this is going to be part of what patients have to deal with The prob- lem with ge- netic testing, scientists say, is that it doesn't always provide a pre- cise glimpse into the future. Some diseases. "To punish people for something they can't change is not rational and it's not fair � Dr. Edison Liu, cancer researcher and physician ����� .�� such as cystic fibrosis or Huntington's, are tied to mutations in single genes - meaning a patient will get sick. But in most cases, such as with many cancers and heart disease, mu- tations signal only an increased risk, not absolute certainty. Still, there are advantages to ' testing. Doctors can more aggres- sively monitor their patients, and patients can avoid behaviors that in- crease the chances they'll get sick.

An hour after he opened the hearings with a prayer, Archbishop Desmond Tutu halted testimony and informed a packed auditorium at East London's city hall that a bomb threat had been phoned in and police would conduct a security sweep. "This is one of the kind of things we will have to deal with Tutu apologized. "It makes all of us aware that there are some people who will stop at nothing to pre- vent this com- mission from do- ing its work Tutu, who clearly regarded the threat as a prank, noted that police had thoroughly searched the building before the hearings started and did not ask spectators to clear the room. They milled around as po- lice performed their work. The nation watched the scene on live television. Tutu told police he wanted a 24- hour guard placed on the building to ensure security: "Otherwise, we are going to keep allowing this to happen. 1 will not allow further in- terruptions The hearings recommenced af- ter a 45-minute delay. Earlier, the Nobel Peace laure- ate led the 17-member Truth and Reconciliation Commission in a prayer seeking "wisdom and guid- ance as it commences the important work of redressing the many wrongs done Tutu lit a single candle of re- membrance that will burn during four days of hearings here. Seven wit- nesses were scheduled to tes- tify today, mostly relatives of anti- apartheid activ- ists who went missing or were allegedly killed by the security forces. N o h 1 e Mohapi took the stand first. She testified about the death of her husband, Mapetla, whom police harassed for his leading role in a black students' organi- zation. He died in "If we are going to have national unity and reconciliation, these proceedings must be successful. There are many praying for us" � Desmond Tutu, archbishop custody 20 years ago - a suicide, police said at the time. "1 have never been happy dur- ing the past 20 years said Mrs. Mohapi. "After I heard about these hearings I wanted to come and give evidence to find out what happened to him, because he never killed him- self After the bomb scare, Mrs. Mohapi finished testifying in the same calm voice, recounting how she herself was tortured, placed in solitary confinement and threatened with death by police. The governing African National Congress issued a statement urging all South Africans to support the commission. But the ANC's chief black rival, the Zulu nationalist Inkatha Freedom Party, announced a boycott of the hearings. Inkatha leader Mangosuthu Buthelezi said the commission would not be impartial in bringing to light facts of a bloody ANC- Inkatha struggle that has killed thousands over the past decade. President Nelson Mandela says the hearings are essential to the rec- onciliation he has preached since white-minority rule ended in 1994. Though politically motivated crimes on both sides are to be examined, the focus will be on South Africa's old, white-dominated security forces, it is a good day for South Af- rica Tutu told reporters. "If we are going to have national unity and rec- onciliation, these proceedings must be successful. There are many pray- ing for us To reward those involved in rights abuses who make full disclo- sures, the commission can recom- mend amnesty - a measure opposed by families of some prominent mur- dered anti-apartheid activists, in- cluding that of Steve Biko. The families have asked the country's highest court to declare the proceedings unconstitutional for denying them the right to see the killers of their loved ones punished. Lawyers for some who face pros- ecution for gross human rights abuses have threatened a different lawsuit, saying their clients could be slandered without due process. The commission will hold hear- ings across the country over the next two years. The initial hearings focus on victims. Amnesty hearings have not yet been scheduled. BRAZIL (AP) - During a visit by a reporter, he spoke warily at first, say- ing he had been told by his employer to keep quiet But soon he relaxed, dropped his load of wood and retrieved a cardboard box with pay stubs. The stubs, a collection of old en- velopes, slips of paper and napkins, showed that in a recent month his fam- ily earned $112.50 for four truckloads of 71 cubic yards of charcoal. The market price for a cubic yard of charcoal is about $25. But Souza isn't any good at fig- ures. He puts his age "around 49 He can't read or write, and signs his name with a squiggly line on any receipts his boss hands him. He doesn't dare ar- gue. Other stubs showed he had paid $17 for a can of cooking oil, $17 for a bag of sugar, $12 for bag of noodles, and $20 for a sack of rice. That month, $340.25 had been deducted for food and board, leaving an outstanding negative balance of $227.75. This left Souza and his family owing $1,126.45 after 25 months of work. How did it happen? "I can't figure it Souza says, "when I work every day and don't barely sleep. And with the kids cutting trees, and working the ovens and all, it just doesn't make sense Several miles up a winding, dirt track a visitor came upon a dozen boys wearing only filthy Bermuda shorts. Cheeks sui en, hair matted in soot they leaned on pitchforks and axes in front of piles of charred logs.

JkPOIL 7 whose head barely reaches the prongs of the pitchfork he held, says he has chopped wood, cleared areas for tree planting and worked the kilns for six months without pay. "I was told I'd get a bonus, but when I asked when that was, the 'cat' gave me this says the boy, turning to show fresh scars that curled across his back - the work of a chain. "That boy says Vieira, the pastor, "is about 10. These children were sepa- rated from their parents, who probably work some other charcoal camp far away. The youngest child I've seen here was 5 years old Another boy, Amadeus de Souza, 15, appears from the billowing fumes of a kiln, hobbling like a sick stork. It is impossible to tell if he is black or white, the soot on his parched skin is so thick. "My feet are asleep Amadeus says. "I've walked barefoot so much on hot coals I can't feel anymore what it is I'm walking on. The feeling only comes back when we work the fields in the planting season Vieira explains that during the planting season from May to August the pubescent girls and boys often are separated from their families to seed cleared areas, in part because the work is lighter. "That's not the only reason they go Vieira says. "When out of sight of their parents, they're often raped and sodomized in the fields by the 'cats' or the truckers The recent explosion in slavery re- ports appears to reflect two trends: an increased awareness of forced labor and the growing disparities between rich and poor. A decade after a 21-year military dictatorship ended in 1985, Brazil's press has stepped up coverage of the problem. That coupled with the grow- ing unionization of rural workers, has contributed to the jump in denuncia- tions. At the same time, income dispari- ties worsened, making it easier for Brazil's wealthy to prey on the weak. A 1995 World Bank study indi- cated Brazil had the worst income dis- tribution in the world. The richest 10 percent of Brazilians hold 51.3 percent of the country's wealth. The poorest 20 percent have just 2.1 percent "At least here, we are workers says Maria Geralda de Souza, Manoel Souza's wife, boiling pequi nuts in an old Texaco motor oil can on a mud stove. A handful of nuts would be her family's lunch that afternoon. "Imagine if we left here. It would be worse. We wouldn't be able to do anything. We'd all starve Luiz Antonio Chaves, a former head of the Montes Claros labor de- partment says the tiny size of the state agency that monitors slave labor re- flects the strong ties between planta- tion owners, steel producers and the local authorities. Only nine agents and one car are in charge of inspecting labor abuses in the 50 municipalities and 7.5 mil- lion acres of eucalyptus plantations in northern Minas Gerais, he says. Investigating slavery is a thank- less task. Most workers are afraid to file complaints, and the targets of im- pending investigations usually get tipped off by insiders. "It's common for plantation own- ers to move the charcoal camp sites around regularly, to avoid getting caught Chaves says. Chaves was removed from his post in late 1994, he says, for denouncing slave labor in the region. The mayor's office in Montes Claros declined com- ment Eucalyptus saps the soil of nutri- ents and can be grown for two or three harvests, so landowners buy and clear vast areas rich in native vegetation to maintain charcoal production. it v e d e K e e o CLINTON from page 5 stopped the incursions one week ago. Last Thursday the U.N. Security Coun- cil appealed to North Korea to adhere to the armistice, calling it the oniy legal instrument keeping the peace on the Korean Peninsula. Perry said Clinton would reaffirm to Kim that "a peace agreement on the Korean Peninsula has to be made between the two principal parties - the North and the South Clinton also was expected to tell Kim that in U.S. talks with North Korea on such issues as the nuclear power arrangement and efforts to re- cover remains of Americans killed in the Korean War there will be no dis- cussion of a peace treaty. The founding father of the North Korean regime, Kim II Song, had said shortly before his death in July 1994 that he would meet with the South Korean president But when he was succeeded by his son, Kim Jong II, the talks were called off and U.S. officials say there is no sign of a softening of positions. Clinton was flying to Tokyo later Tuesday for a state visit centering on reaffirming the U.SJapan defense al- liance. Clinton and Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto were to issue a joint security declaration stating that the United States will keep 100,000 troops stationed in the Asia-Pacific area, including 47,000 in Japan. In his talks in Tokyo on Monday, Perry announced that Japan had agreed for the first time to provide transportation, communications and other logistical support for U.S. forces during peacetime operations such as humanitarian relief or U.N. peacekeep- ing missions. Perry also said the U.S. military was giving back to Okinawa about 20 percent of the land it uses for train- ing on the southern Japanese island. jFjLjl from page 4 She said on Sunday that Reid had flown the plane once while Jes- sica took a nap.

The 1995 survey predicted that the most promising fields for the Class of 1996 would not be computer sci- ence and engineering, but also busi- ness (such as marketing and sales), health and science. So far. the forecast for graduat- ing seniors seems to be right on tar- get, said Vernicka Tyson, director of career services and placement at Michigan State. "It seems to be a pretty good year Tyson said. With computer science majors, "the demand exceeds the supply she said. Companies also are showing an interest in management information systems majors, materials and logis- tics students and chemical engineers. Also, "there has been more inter- est in the liberal-arts major Tyson said. "That's been a hopeful sign When it comes to the job search process, her office advises students to start early. "Students in their freshman and sophomore year should start think- ing about their career paths she said. "Internships and cooperative work experiences are very important. The need for computer skills is also very important, regardless of the academic discipline Tim Putzier. director of career advising and planning services at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, gives the same advice. "By the end of your sophomore year you should be looking for intern- ships ideally he said. His office, which primarily handles the liberal-arts students graduating from UW's College of Let- ters and Science, has noticed an in- crease in campus recruiting as com- pared to other years. "It's definitely up in the number of companies he said. "It's not a dras- tic leap, but it's definitely climbing And similar to the national trend, UW's computer science students are fielding more job offers than their peers who dabble in literature and other liberal-arts courses. About com- puter science majors, Putzier said, "if you can talk, you've got a job Another trend Putzier has no- ticed is an extended recruiting pe- riod for employers. "Usually, it's all wrapped up by mid-March he said, adding that em- ployers are still arranging campus vis- its in April. "That's a good thing for the students The competition is tough, how- ever. One major retailer recently came to the UW campus with less than 10 positions available for more than 400 applicants from various colleges. Putzier said. "We have students getting of- fers, but it's certainly very competi- tive But. "it's a better year than oth- ers he said. "1994. 1995 and 1996 have all been climbing. It's slowly but surely getting on a roll in Mendenhall and were provided for the students' academic and social growth as freshmen. "Last year 289 minority stu- dents attended visitation day said Elola Moore, office of admissions. "This year more than 300 minority students attended Those that par- ticipated had to be prospective stu- dents and have been accepted to the university for the 1996-1997 school year. All 16 state schools participate in some form of minority program that is similar to Minority Visitation Day at ECU. Most of these schools include the program during orien- tation. "I'd like to thank the faculty members and the organizations that participated in Minority Visitation Day Moore said. "The visitation day got a lot of support from the campus At the end of the day, evalua- tions were given in order to gather ideas to improve next year's Minor- ity Visitation Day. "The comments that were made were very positive ones Moore said. "These comments ranged anywhere from how effective the workshops were to the helpfulness of the cam- pus tours Other comments were made about how lunch needed to be longer in order for the minority students to socialize and make friends. Improve- ments are being made in this area. C-CJM.A. from page I driving, sustained a broken leg. Parker was originally transported to New Hanover's Trauma Unit due to sustaining head injuries. Now that she's been upgraded into the critical care unit her family members can remain by her side. "When Kelly was in the Trauma Unit she could only have visitors for 15 minutes at a time, but now we can stay with her Parker's mother said. "I can watch over her now and help take care of her-I can 'mother' her now Last Tuesday, Parker underwent surgery to drain built up spinal fluid from her brain. A shunt was put in because the natural drain in Kelly's brain stem became clogged due to her injuries. "Now she's trying to wake up from surgery Parker's mother said. Parker first opened her eyes two weeks after the accident. However, her mother said that Kelly is still not focusing and that "she has a blank stare According to official police re- ports, the driver responsible for the accident, Brady Swartzle, 19. was charged with misdemeanor death by vehicle: left of center; and unsafe movement: exceeding a safe speed. Parker's mother said he sus- tained no serious injuries but knocked out three teeth. According to Parker's mother, the young man fell asleep behind the wheel. In recounting the events she said that the car in front of her swerved to the right and that she then saw a car come into her lane. In an attempt to avoid colliding with the car she then swerved to the left. "I think at that point he woke up and realized he was in the wrong lane and swerved back into his lane Parker's mother said. "Then he hit us, and Kelly's been in a coma ever since Parker's mother said that to cope with the situation they have pulled together and stayed by Kelly's bedside. Her mother, father or brother are there at all times. "It's hard to watch your children like this Parker's mother said. "I have trust in God. and I feel that she will come out of this SHOOT from page 1 Freshman Stcey Jones agreed. "I can understand that they are looking out for the students said Stacy Jones, an education major. "But they should take other actions, such as maybe moving it to a differ- ent place or changing the time Other universities across North Carolina have policies for events such as dances and parties that may oc- cur late at night, including ECU. At UNC-Greensboro, there is a late night party policy that requires the orga- nization to follow certain planning and security guidelines. "If anything should occur, Stu- dent Affairs and other committees on campus will look at the circum- ELECTION from page 1 ing that, despite the lapse of 48 hours. Lynch's constitutional right "to peti- tion the government for a redress of grievances" was violated and could therefore be heard. SGA Attorney General Dawn Woodard recommended that the re- view board not allow Lynch's second complaint which called for a new elec- tion in order to comply with Article XI section 7(A) which states that a new election can only be called if one of two candidates is disqualified. She said that despite the numerous rules already broken in the election process, the board should not deviate from the election rules. The review board ruled that Ar- ticle XI section 7(A) of the election rules was unconstitutional. "The elections rules never state a procedure to follow if such a case where a challenge to the election that does not result in disqualification of (a) winner were to occur the deci- sion stated. "The Review Board rec- ommended the legislature establish rules and procedures to follow in case of a challenge to the integrity of the election itself. "Second, the review board is empowered by the constitution and election rules to call for a new elec- tion on an appeal from the Elections Committee who is also empowered to call for a new election The board said the second com- plaints should be heard by the Elec- tions Committee, which was sched- uled to meet at 8 p.m. last night. Lynch said he will decide whether or not to appeal the Election Committee's decision based on their reasoning. "I feel that it is my right to have a new election Lynch said. "If the committee rules against it (a new elec- tion) their reasoning must not only be clear and feasible, but it must also convince me that a new election is an unreasonable request Attention Returning Students If you plan to live off campus, you can eliminate at least one long line by ananging your utility service in advance. By planning ahead, you can save valuable time and possibly money. The follow- ing options are available: Option A: No Deposit Required At your parents' request, your utility service may be put in their name. Just pick up a "Request for Utility Service" application from room 214 in the Off-Campus Housing Office, Whichard Building; at Greenville Utilities' Main Office, 200 W. 5th Street; or at GUC Express, our satellite office located at 509 S.E. Greenville Blvd. Have your parents complete the application (which must be notarized) and mail it to GUC, P.O. Box 1847, Greenville, N.C. 27835-1847, att Customer Service. ?Remember to attach a "letter of credit" from your parents' power company. Option B: Deposit Required If you wish to have the utility service put in your name, a deposit will be required. Deposits are as follows: witb electric at pwoot electric �pace bettio�or gas space beating Electric Only $100$75 Electric & Water $110$85 Electric, Water & Gas $110$85 Electric & Gas $100$75 You can save time by mailing the deposit in advance. Be sure to include your name, where service will be required, when service is to be cut on and a phone number where we may reach you prior to your arrival at the service address. The service charge of $20.00 for electric and water, andor $30.00 for gas will be on your first bill GUC requires you to be home when natural gas is cut on While we do not require you to be home when electric or water service is cut on, it is your responsibility to ensure that all electrical appliances and water faucets are OFF during the cut on procedure. Greenville ff$ Utilities stances involving the incident and simply go from there said Jim Lancaster, assistant vice chancellor of student affairs at UNC-Greensboro. Here at ECU. there is a strict policy regarding the dances and par- ties held on campus. The policy has been revised due to recent incidents involving the discharge of firearms. The policies and procedures are all intended to insure the safety and se- curity of the student body and guests. "One requirement is that there must be police officers present at all times during the danceparty said Laura Sweet, assistant dean of stu- dents and the panhellenic council. This is to ensure the prevention of problematic behavior at the event. There is also a policy stating that all participants will be required to pass through a metal detector before and after the event. The sponsoring or- ganizations that fail to follow the pro- cedures can have their party privi- leges revoked. "Safety is more important than anything on the college campus said senior Chris Grunden. a mar- riage and family counseling major. "I agree with the policies here on our campus. They are all done to prevent an incident such as the one that oc- curred at Chapel Hill. After the drive- by shooting, they made the right decision in canceling those events MEDIA from page 1 tal signals on and off campus quickly and efficiently. Altogether. $300,000 has been spent on equipment and other necessary supplies for the project. The system will soon be dis- persed all throughout campus and will include the entire university cur- riculum. As of now, various depart- ments have experimented with the system such as the School of Busi- ness, the School of Art, industrial technology, philosophy and biology. The Biology department has been the most progressive regarding the use of the system. This new sys- tem may be able to stimulate certain experiments, eliminating any risk of handling certain chemicals. You may also be able to visual- ize presentations in a live environ- ment, other than watching a boring slide presentation. "One thing that we'd like to stress is the purpose of the program Marshburn said. "It is not to be used as a replacement in the classroom, but as an addition Through the past 10 years, ECU has marked its place in the field of communications technology. The School of Medicine has been nation- ally recognized for the development and use of telemedicine. Two years ago. the campus was one of the first universities to install fiber optics cable in order to speed up network- ing and other forms of visual and voice communication.

It's that hectic time of year when all of the papers are due and you have to read all of the stuff you should have been reading on the days marked on your course outline. The worst part is that now is also the time of year when the best parties are scheduled. How will you cope? Should you bury yourself in your books and fight like hell to get your GPA up to that parent-pleasing mark, or should you throw caution to the wind and decide to settle for what- ever scraps fate might throw your way? Either way, the decision cannot be made lightly. If you take the first option and become a book worm, you might miss your last few days to visit with your friends, not a small price to pay when some of your best friends might be graduating soon. On the other hand, if you decide to go ahead and sell all your books back on the first day (espe- cially that big one that you know you need but will really rake in the big bucks at UBE) and try to tell yourself you can remember the important stuff, there might be some grave consequences awaiting you the day report cards go home. Think you can beat your mom to the mailbox? Don't even try it; she has connections. Final exam time is when you see the largest number of people (who usually look pretty good) walking around look- ing like they haven't slept since December. Their hair isn't combed and their shoes don't match, and they're making that mass exodus to the library. It is also the time when you get caught up in that inevitable event-the Great Extra Credit Rush. You've never seen so many people interested in the advancement of psychological research in all your life. Some words of advice: DON'T STRESS! Easier said that done, I know, but you don't have to lose your mind simply because you might be bordering between two grade levels. Go to your professor's office and find out exactly where you stand. A good instructor (we pray you have one) will tell you what grade you have and how many points you need to get to the next level. Sometimes, if God is on your side, you might even get a point or two for taking the time to visit a professor (especially if this wasn't your first visit). After you find out where you stand, plan what you have to do reasonably. Don't say "today I'll read my whole Chemis- try book and tomorrow I'll cover the Spanish book We guarantee you won't get anywhere. Plan to give yourself a break now and then, and study outside when you can. End your relationship with Vivarin and try to get enough sleep. Take your Reading Day (April 22) seriously. From here on out every hour counts. And remember: This is a test. This is only a test Line-item veto cuts the fat On Tuesday, April 9, the sky opened over our nations capital, the cherry trees bloomed, the drug deal- ers stopped selling crack, the Angels sang, and the President of the United States signed the most important piece of legislation of the decade. Dkay. you got me, none of the above is true except the part about the leg- islation (but the rest should have hap- pened). The President signed some- thing that has eluded every president Since 1870 when it was first pursued, the line-item veto. For those of you who don't quite know what this means, let me tell you a little story. Once upon a time there was this big bad Senator. He wanted Something for his state and didn't ivant to pay for it There was a bill going through Congress and it was Sure to pass, so he tacked on his little Wish on to the raft of the bill know- ing that once it was on there it Couldn't be taken off and the only way for it to die was for the whole bill to (lie. The bill was so good that they accepted it anyway and the little wish got a free ride in becoming true. Soon others found out about this little con- gressional magic iamp and started making little wishes that could get a free ride as well. Thus, the little wishes became known as riders. Today these riders are used to award government contracts, build roads, move and open new military bases, and offer subsidies to groups as a reward for big time campaign expenditures. An example of this would be the following: Bill X is go- ing through Congress, it is the per- Chris Arline Senior Opinion Columnist Opponents of the bill claim that it disrupts the system of checks and balances feet solution to solve the deficit Con- gressmen Z knows that the plan will pass, he also knows that his home state needs a new bridge so he tacks on a rider that states that as part of the plan, a bridge will be built in his state. The rider would have never made it on its own. This process is part of what is referred to as pork barreling and is exactly what the line- item veto is designed to eliminate. The bill gives the President the power to cut out items in bills that involve government spending, thus allowing for removal of wasteful spending. Opponents of the bill claim that it disrupts the system of checks and balances that the federal government is based upon. The decision of whether or not the bill is constitu- tional rests with the Supreme Courts interpretation of Article One. Section Seven of the Constitution. In a nut shell, the section sates that if the presi dent likes a bill he should sign it, if not then he should return it. The bill, according to USA Today, has already had one suit filed against it and more can probably be expected. The suit filed was submitted by the National Treasury Employees Union. They claim that fhp hill suhvprte the Constitution's separation of powers and it uncostitutionally shifts power to the executive branch. It sounds like a somewhat legitimate plea until you look at their motives. In a quote to USA Today, the union stated that the reason for the suit is because "they fear a hostile president will veto raises for federal workers 1 think it's fair to say that they are in no mood to give up their high fat diet if they can help it The truth of the matter is that at the time of the drafting of the Consti- tution, there were no such thing as riders. Article Seven does not state that he can cut out one part of the bill. yet. neither does it slate that he must accept or shoot down the bill in its entirety. Congr c?'i still override the line-item just as it would any other veto so, thus, the check of power still exists. This bill is constitutional and the money it saves will be used to cut down the national debt. I wonder if this bill is a result of the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Agriculture's threats to force Washington to build run off ponds adjacent to federal build- ings to curb the pork farm run off contaminants from getting into the Potomac River.

SGA needs some work Dear ECU Student "As a member of the East Caro- lina University community, you have many opportunities to contribute to the welfare of the university. Your interest, criticism and support are needed so that the all important goal- providing the best educational oppor- tunities possible-can be achieved. While student faculty, and em ployee groups do much of the plan- ning, programming, and policy mak- ing, you as an individual can make significant contributions by being in- formed about the ECU community; consulting faculty, administrators, and students; and actively participating in student organizations that interest you The preceding is from the open- ing statement of the Campus Commu- nity Government heading in the back of your Clue Book. This section con- tains the Student Government Asso- ciation (SGA) Constitution and infor- mation regarding operating proce- dures of the various aspects of SGA. The Preamble of the SGA Constitu- tion reads: "We, the students of the East Carolina University, with resolute de- termination to preserve the best in our tradition of responsible student self-government, assert our goals to preserve order, to make personal free- dom secure, to establish justice, and to maintain a lasting opportunity for responsible individual and collective action, and to these ends we ordain and establish this constitution of the Student Government Association for the student body of East Carolina University I am writing in favor of the 9 April "Our View" editorial in The East Caro- linian. The issues brought to light by the recent elections are only a symp- tom of a much larger problem. The structure of SGA needs to be re- formed. Perhaps I should qualify my opinion. I have been a member of the legislature since 1993. I served as Screenings and Appointments chair last year and currently serve as co- chair tor student welfare. I belong to a sorority, but I also belong to sev- eral honor societies. I have heard a lot of people blaming the scandals and corruptions on Greeks in general, as if wearing letters somehow inhibits a person's ability to reason. People are quite capable of being corrupt all by themselves regardless of any affilia- tions. The problem is much more fun- damental than that and centers around three central issues: low stan- dards, an insufficient system of checks and balances and a lack of constitu- ency. Raising standards is one way to treat this problem. Currently, the ba- sic requirements for any SGA office are 1) having a 2.0 GPA, 2) being a Lucy Godwin Guest Columnist The pote exists for a student body president to exercise undue influence over other student groups. full-time ECU student, and 3) being in good standing with the university. Raising standards is a hot topic across campus. SGA should be the initiator in this move to raise the value and quality of your education. Do these requirements represent "the best in our tradition of student self-govern- ment" or "responsible individual and collective action"? I don't think so. Should someone who fails to manage their academic affairs in a successful manner be given this much power? We are, after all, here to get an edu- cation. SGA is a way to enhance that goal, not an end in itself. People were offended by the "Beavis Elected Campus President" article in the April 4 edition of The East Carolinian satire page. One of the offended parties was concerned that a loser like Beavis was associated with the Recreation and Leisure Sys- tems Studies program. Was no one offended that a loser like Beavis was associated with SGA, especially as stu- dent body president? Or, does every- body agree that "only cool people would be allowed to join the student government next year" is an accurate perception of SGA? Well, if Beavis has managed to keep a 2.0 and is in good standing with the university, he could be a legitimate candidate. So could that kid in the back of your class that drools all over the desk while he sleeps through the lecture or the kid in the next row that reeks of bourbon every Friday morning, at least when he shows up. Holding ourselves to higher standards is our responsibility, not only as individuals, but as a student body. Obviously, our current elections process doesn't guarantee this. The checks and balances system in SGA needs some work as well. While the current process provides some control, the process is long and involved. A more expedient way of keeping our elected officials from abusing the power entrusted to them is desperately needed. The potential exists for a student body president to exercise undue influence over other student groups, most easily by means of vetoing legislation, particularly appropriations. Most people call this blackmail rather than good politics. Point to ponder: seven student orga- nizations, referred to as "umbrella organizations hold the student seats on major committees such as Media board, Homecoming Steering commit- tee, etc These boards govern more aspects of your life as a student than you may realize. Now, consider, only two of these seven organizations are finanically independent of SGA. Should the SGA president be able to control the votes of the other five? Should any one person be given this much power? Apart from a number of other issues, such as the need for timely processing of constitutions and appro- priation requests (those of you that have filed the same appropriation three of four times in the past year know what I am talking about), we need the legislature to actually repre- sent the student body. If you live on campus, your hall representative on SGA is accountable to your hall coun- cil and should be accessible to you. If you live off campus, your interests are represented by approximately 43 day representatives. These day reps do not have a distance constituency though each of them should be responsible for representing about 350 people. TEC was justified in suggestion that each organization or club should have a representative on SGA. I would sug- gest that it be taken a step further to include representation from each school, if not each department. Some provision also needs to be made to guarantee that non-traditional stu- dents have a greater voice on campus. This type of organization is re- ferred to as a student Senate - a four- letter word to those who like the free- dom from being held accountable for their actions. SGA has around 60 people now; a student Senate would probably have nearer 200. A largej group would simply have too man members to be so easily manipulate and would better represent the intei ests of all aspects of our student body Each and every one of you has the right to fair and adequate repi resentation, but you must demand a course of action that guarantees itj We've all had the American historjl courses; fair representation is not gained easily, especially when it cont cerns the spending of your money. Ye reader, your money! About $20 a of your hard-earned money goes rectly to SGA as student fees. In add tion, an untold amount is influence by SGA action on committees arounl campus. It is not only your right, but your responsibility to vote and to ej� press your opinion. If you fail to df this, don't be surprised to see BeavuJ walking to class with a fat wad of you res yeaj s di cash in his pocket I m Letters to the Editor To the Editor: We would like to call attention to section 15.10 of House Bill 229 passed by the General Assembly in 1995. This required the Board of Gov- ernors of the University of North Caro- lina to "study the potential for cost savings by contracting for various services with private contractors, in- cluding housekeeping and mainte- nance of facilities Housekeepers at ECU are now understaffed and work- ing much harder and longer to make sure ail projects are completed on time. When contractors come in, take away their benefits, and lower their pay. many workers will be forced to find other employment. We want you to realize the kind of people that will be working for $5 an hour doing housekeeping work. Such contractors, in order to cut their own costs, disregard proper screening methods and hire basically anyone. Many times the temporary work- ers hired by these contractors are tran- sients, in town for only a day or two. Some of whom will have a tougher time mopping a floor than breaking into an office. Everyone will need to put alarms on their cars, lock every- thing up in dorms and lock offices at all times. Nobody will feel safe. The state will obviously save money, but at the expense of the safety of sti dents and faculty. The current staff, at least in our department do more than our sharj of work. They are very courteous an$ we are fortunate to have them a friends. If you have questions or com plaints about this proposal, pleasj contact the Vice Chancellor for bus ness affairs at 328-6975.

The third annual Battle of the Bands took place Thursday night and the winner will open Barefoot on the Mall. The contestants couldn't have hoped for better cooperation from Mother Nature for this year's event as they began setting up their equipment around 6 p.m. preparing for the 8 p.m. kick-off time. Most of the people in at- tendance were dressed in casual spring attire, ready to enjoy a night of live music. There were five finalists invited to participate in the battle and each contributed in their own unique way to make the event successful. Each band was given 20 minutes to play their set and there was a 20 minute break in between bands. Four judges were on hand to make the deci- sion on who will open Barefoot on the Mall. The decision of the judges is fi- nal The lead-off band was Treading Evans. The grassroots band featured Derek T. Hall on acoustic guitar and lead vocals, everyone's favorite librar- ian Matt Toth on the congas, Nick C. on lead guitar and backing vocals, banging on the drums was Rob Watson and Chris Brame rounded out the quin- tet on bass guitar. "This was only our sixth time play- ing together and our first in front of people Hall said. "We're sticking to- gether though, and we were pleased with our performance It seemed like everyone else was also pleased. Treading Evans won first runner-up in the Battle. Treading Evans performed all original tunes and started off their set with "Everything in a Box They also performed "Jack Stone" and "Don't" A crowd of about 200 formed a semi-circle in front of the stage and the audience remained constantly upbeat during performances. Though many folks left during set change-overs, ev- eryone seemed to come back each time a new band struck up their instru- ments. Second up to the plate was the alternative-sounding quartet Mistaken Identity. One crowd member com- plained that they were the strongest sounding band in Battle of the Bands, but the judges obviously didn't agree as the foursome failed to place in the event. A local bluesy trio calling them- selves Off Center was third to hit the stage. As would be expected from a blues band, the threesome didn't sound as polished as the other acts and it hurt their standing with the judges. In the clean-up position of the acts on the roster was the Thomas Broth- ers Band. Their blues-alternative style gave them a favorable showing with the crowd and judges alike. They started off their set with a bassline sounding similar to a Red Hot Chili Peppers' groove but got the most crowd participation of any of the five bands. See BARE page 14 Classes offered on net Jennifer Coleman Senior Writer ECU has gone interactive. For the first time in its history, ECU undergraduates can take a class without ever setting foot in a class- room, thanks to the internet. The class, ELEC 4505, or "Hands on the Internet" as it's called, begins May 13 and is open to any- one, anywhere. Because it is operated entirely from the information tech- nology department, you don't even have to be an ECU student to sign up. The only requirements for par- ticipation are that you have a com- puter with a 14.4 modem or better (either at your home or place of busi- ness) and be connected to the internet either through a local pro- vider or through the school. The class also differs from the rest of the summer session in that it will run 12 weeks, not the custom- ary five weeks. So what does a class like this involve? "Hands on the Internet" is just that: hands on. This course stresses interac- tive learning and no prior ex- perience with the internet is necessary. Stu- dents will learn how to navigate the World Wide Web (WWW), create their own home pages, use e- mail and mail lists, telnet, FRPArchie, Gopher Veronica and IRC (internet relay chat). Any class meetings that do occur will happen over IRC. Because it is operated entirely from the information technology department, you don't even have to be an ECU student to sign up. The internet courses (besides ELEC 4505, four other classes are offered for graduate students only this summer) be- gan as part of the Technology Rein- vestment Project (TRP). Dr. Barry Duvall, a professor in the information technology depart- ment, is the direc- tor of the program. Ken Lewis, the as- sistant director of the project, will teach the class. At present, the course is offered independently through the Indus- trial Technology department at a student cost of $270.

Man, did we make the right choice. I knew about the Hootie show pretty soon after they showed up in town and several hours before it was actually announced. As much as I tend to rag on them in my music column. I was singularly impressed that they had set up a tour like this one. Cracked Near View has reportedly sold over lfi million copies worldwide.

CD Reviews Doug Powell Ballad of the Tin Men Doxy's Kitchen New Age Tmck Stop ADr?P Bucket "A Drop in the Bucket" is just what it claims to be: a very tiny drop in the great screaming bucket of Ameri- can media opinion. Take it as you will. Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor Jay Myers Senior Writer Derek T. Hall Staff Writer Why is it that most things with a title that includes the word "tin" are doomed to be flawed? For example, David Bowie's short- lived band Tin Machine was the defini- tion of wasted talent (although they were rumored to be a great live act), and writer- director Barry Levinson's film Tin Men, a pseudo-sequel to Diner, was pretty- much a flop with the exception of a few comedic punches (Of course, the cartoon hero Tin Tin is magnificent so maybe the secret for success is to double up). That brings us to Doug Powell and his Ballad of the Tin Men. Never heard of Doug Powell? Me neither. That's prob- ably why Mercury Records, Powell's la- bel, is pushing him so hard with their promotional ad copy. They make com- parisons between Powell and (get this) Todd Rundgren, Robyn Hitchcock. John Lennon, Jackson Browne. KISS. Peter Frampton. The Cars, David Bowie (aha. the tin connection), Frank Zappa, Jules Shear and Charles Dickens (yes, that Charles Dickens). Sounds pretty impressive, huh? Well, let's think about this a little fur- See DOUG page 14 Are you ready for a mellow groove? Something perhaps that would ease your mind in the most confusing times is no farther than your local CD store. Doxy's Kitchen, a five piece band from Chapel Hill, is taking the club scene by storm. With their latest release, "New Age Truck Stop the band is turn- ing heads and turning smiles. The band itself is composed of lead vocals and acoustic guitarAndrew Dykers), lead guitar (Keith Ganz), bass (Doug Largent), sax (Rob Chaseman), drums (Justin Harris) and keys to please (Cordy Franke). Not only does singer Dykers take the stage these days with sheer con- fidence, he does it with a laid back style. The album opens up with a song called "Over You a song that entails lyrics that may seem down at times but offers a huge pick up with the music. That is the best thing about this band. They sing about the blues to a jazz for- mat. It works well indeed! As the album goes on you'll be drawn into a series of grooves includ- ing the title track "New Age Truck Stop which is probably the best tune See DOXY page 13 7�ovce IRectcew Giant Peach lacks necessary magic Dale Williamson Senior Writer million people in New York.

Not only that, but I am also the one who chooses what films get reviewed by the paper. In a sense. I control the films to which readers of 7"�Care exposed. I have been too kind lately. I've been giving many glowing reviews to many movies. So I originally wanted to make this week's movie something I knew 1 wouldn't like. 1 wanted to slam something hard. Then I backed out and went to see a film 1 really wanted to enjoy, Disney's James and the Giant Peach. This film is the latest animated feat by the creators of The Nightmare Before Christmas, a film I love more with each viewing. While I firmly believed that Giant Peach would be a film that I would bestow praise upon, when I left the theater I realized that 1 had inadvertently seen a film 1 could easily trash. See PEACH page 14 It's been three weeks now, and my faith in democracy is still pretty shaky. Hmm. Not bad as leads go; I've certainly written worse. But it's still not as good as the simple "I think I've lost my faith in democracy" that started this bloated three-part column off. The mam problem with this lead is that I'm run- ning the risk of boring my au- dience. When you've got read- ers coming back week after week, it's important to con- tinually come up with some- thing new. Or, more accu- rately, it's important to create the illusion of something new. After all, I've only got two or three basic arguments. If you break it down, the only things I ever really write about are individuality (sometimes masquerading as originality) and stupidity. Even other big issues I sometimes tackle, like justice, spring from these wells. I apply my simple themes to a variety of topics, yes, but I seldom say anything very different. It all goes back to manipu- lation (which takes us back to the first part of this nightmarishly long argument). In the individual columns, I try to hook and misdirect my audience to get you to read my work. In the series of colu.nns, I try to convince you that I'm saying something new each time so you'll keep coming back. But it's really all the same old crap. That sounds rather cyni- cal and sinister, 1 suppose, and it would give me great joy to let you believe that I'm some kind of power-mad lunatic who hates the world and every- thing in it. But, much as I'm loathe to admit it, I'm not the evil zombie overlord of 7"�C's Lifestyle section. I'm really just a loudmouth who (rather paradoxically) wants little more than a quiet, scholarly life. So you can all rest assured that you're safe from my Ma- chiavellian schemes. No, the only person "A Drop in the Bucket" puts in danger is its author. A forum like this one, you see, is a writer's wet dream. It's a place to regularly air my opinions, and for some- one who is driven to share his words with others, that's heaven.

"Notes from the Underground" is usually reserved for stuff that the gen- eral public isn't aware of. And while su- per heroes certainly have kind of a mar- ginal appeal, let's face it: everybody knows who Batman is. In addition, most of the people who would care what the Caped Crusader is up to these days al- ready know because they're comics fans and Batman readers. So the super hero reviews, in general, are out Until something like Batman: Black and White comes along, that is. The con- cept for this four-issue mini-series is simple: put together an eclectic group of talented comics creators from the past and present and have them do Batman short stories with black and white art The result of this plan is tar from simple: the first issue of Black and White con- tains stories that are ethereal, satirical and hard-boiled. And the black and white artwork isn't just a cost-cutting measure. Black and white comics art is a different ani- mal from the color stuff. The black and white artist can play with shadows more, creating moods and tones for his story that color stories can never quite achieve.

The first story, "Perpetual Mourning" by alternative comics creator Ted McKeever, creates a sharp contrast between the title colors for a story that is both understated and starkly realistic It's understated in that it contains no action and little dialogue, focusing less on the bombastic side of Batman and more on the detective side. As Batman performs an autopsy, we see him reconstruct the crime that led to his subject's death from forensic evidence. McKeever occasionally cuts to silent panels of a couple dancing as a visual counterpoint to Batman's autopsy and subsequent detective work. Both mor- bid and beautiful. "Perpetual Mourning" is a hell of a way to kick off this comic. In striking contrast is the second story, "Two of a Kind" by Bruce Timm. producer of the Batman animated se- ries. Using the cartoony style of the TV show, Timm tells a story about the vil- lain Two-Face that's anything but cartoony. A plastic surgery breakthrough al- YVomen's Gold 1. She-Things 2.

Answers in Thursday's issue PEACH from page 12 James and the Giant Peach is based on Roald Dahl's children's book, and segments of the film are worthy of Dahl's bizarre, twisted, magical talent. But not enough of the film carries the magic that el- evates Dahl's work to a unique level. The concept is magical enough. James (Paul Terry) is a pure-hearted child who loses his parents to a mon- strous rhinoceros that terrorizes the skies above. Without his parents, James is forced to endure the abuses of his wicked aunts, Spiker and Sponge (played to evil perfection by Joanna Lurnley and Miriam Margolyes respectively). While James dreams of escap- ing to New York, the city of dreams, he is trapped. However. James is given a chance for escape when a mysterious man (Pete Postlethwaite) gives James a bag filled with magic. When this magic escapes from the bag, a giant peach grows and James escapes in the peach with his newly- discovered giant insect friends. Admittedly, my synopsis is very vague and basic, but no matter. The bulk of the film centers around James and the magical insects as they escape across the world to reach New York. With a concept like this, you would expect a wonderfully bizarre adventure filled with magi- cal moments. What you get is a script (blandly written by Karey Kirkpatrick, Jonathan Roberts and Steve Bloom) that meanders with no sense of direction or purpose. Some scenes are somewhat ex- citing (one features an incredible me- chanical shark and another thrills with an underwater skeleton battle), but most of the film is just filler. The scriptwriters try to focus on char- acter development as this mis- matched team slowly develops into a family, but their method is lack- ing. The repeated attempts to de- velop characters through musical numbers would not be so bad if only the music were better. One musical number about the joys of eating is not only mediocre but also a waste of valuable screen time. Worse yet. the film's lead is also lacking. A standard feature of many children's stories is the goiden child who is purer and better than any- one else in the story. As James. Paul Terry docs well with presenting a pure soul, but he is simply an an- noying presence who really doesn't impress with his singing voice.

The stop-motion animation is, of course, brilliant. It's even up to the standards .set by The Nightmare Before Christmas. The insect char- acters also hold your interest, par- ticularly a seductive French lady spider and a gentlemanly grasshop- per. The film does start on a solid note. The opening sequences, which are filmed in live action, are placed against fanciful expressionistic sets that captivate the eye, and the story is engrossing at the start. Unfortu- nately, when the magical elements come into play, the film spirals down. This is deadly for a story that should have magic at its very heart. After succeeding to wondrous effect with The Nightmare future Christmas, the makers of James and the Giant Peach did have much to live up to. Perhaps it was Tim Burton's i park that made Nightmare so special, because some- thing falls short here. While the very nature of this story involves the bi- zarre and the magical. Selick and company ultimately miss the boat on this outing. As much as l wanted to love the film, this giant peach is hol- low and hard to swallow. On a scale of one to 10, James and the Giant Peach rates a five. Interested in living at Players Club; but need roommates?

Although the album has its hit song plastered all over the cover, don't be too afraid to listen to what else these guys have to say. Scratching its way to the top is "54 a song about the feel- ing of regret It's hard to understand just what Dykers is talking about, but that leaves the listener with the ability to imagine the other half. That works sometimes; just ask Eddie Vedder! Strangely, the album ends with "Over You" as well. Don't worry, you're not getting gypped! The song is on there twice, but the second time it's an extended jam. Not only does it take uifferent directions, it enables the audience to imagine that not only did they hear a disc that went from one place to another, they also heard a disc that never left from where it started.

That Dog was the opening act The front members are Rachel and Petra Haden, the daughters of jazz great Charlie Haden, and Pat Smear, former guitarist for Nirvana and now the same for Foo Fighters, introduced them as his favorite band.

The best part of this set was that Dave Grohl, former Nirvana drummer and lead singersongwriterguitarist for Foo Fighters, came out to watch That Dog's set and ended up standing right in front of us. My brother, Nirvana fan that he is, went right up to Grohl and struck up a conversation. He and Dave talked for a bit shook hands, and re- turned to watching the set Grohl went backstage after the set was over, and my brother went into a state of shock.

After all, Powell wrote all of the songs and played all of the instruments (except for drums, strings and one guitar solo), and he has enough talent to do it well. Maybe he deserves to be a bit cocky. The downside is that after hearing the first track, you actually don't need to hear any more of the record, because it all sounds the same. Powell has no range of emotion and consequently the record reworks the same groove over and over again. It becomes boring. Even songs about the TV show The Prisoner and the Kinks' lead singer Ray Davies don't help. In fact the only truly inspired parts of the whole album are the guitar lines from the Kinks songs "You Really Got Me" and "All Day and All of the Night" SPEND THE SUMMER iELVIS OK SO ELVIS IS OUR DOG.

Here's some advice. Doug: next time you make a record, don't lift music directly from musicians that are better than you. They'll always show you up. If you're going to do it then at least change it enough that you make it you own. Powell describes Ballad of The Tin Men as "the story of everyone who is looking for some type of meaning, any- one who is looking for a heart in some way Pretentious as that may sound, it is not only an accurate description of the original Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz, but also this album. Although Powell is a proficient musician and a quirky songwriter, his songs lack heart and meaning. BATMAN frontpage 13 laws (like taking 15 items into a super- market express lane). It's a fun read, but Chaykin doesn't do much with the black and white art and the story lacks the impact of the first two. The final story is "The Devil's Trum- pet" by Archie Goodwin and Argentinean comics art legend Jose Munoz. A story about jazz, obsession and the devils that lurk in the minds of men. "Devil's Trum- pet" is a satisfying ending to one of the best comics I've read this year. The three remaining issues of this mini-series promise more quality work. It's well worth checking out even if you hate super heroes. On a scale of one to 10.

The sextet became a popu- lar act with the other bands partici- pating in the Battle. Crosswork just recently recorded their first CD in Nash- ville, Tenn and gave out a few comple- mentary copies to the members ot Treading Evans.

But therein lies the danger. Ex- pressing myself so forcefully all the time makes it easy to believe in my own correctness, my own moral ini- tiative, my own superiority. In other words (and here's this week's manipulative turning point), it would he easy to become an elitist. Dennis Miller is a prime ex- ample of this. Much as I love the guy, his constant self-expression has convinced him that he's right and anybody who doesn't agree with him (to use his words) is just some stupid cha-cha. To do the kind of socialpoliti- cal comedy he does (or the kind of stuff I do here), you've got to have a little of the elitist in you to begin with. You've got to believe in your own perspective before you can ef- fectively express it. The danger is in embracing that perspective too completely. For me, it's a matter of remind- ing myself that my perspective is taken in part from other perspec- tives I've been exposed to. Even my staunch beliefs in individuality and originality came from somebody else in the beginning. My hatred of the group mentality makes me part of a group in turn. And I'm cer- tainly not the first person to rec- ognize and despise stupidity. If even the most fiercely inde- pendent personal philosophy is shaped by other philosophies, why shut out different ideas? That kind of thinking is ultimately stupid, and that's how elitists think. So if I'm going to hate stupidity, I can't al- low myself to be an elitist. But democracy is still making me a little queasy. The problem is, I believe that some philosophies are inherently better than others. The philosophy of the addict, for instance, that short-term pleasure is better than long-term health, is self-destructive and therefore less valid than a phi- losophy that is more life-affirming. Likewise, I think some philosophies (mostly the oppressive or destruc- tive or hateful ones) are less valid than the ones I hold, and I fear that those philosophies will take control if we let them. But that's not to say that all philosophies are inferior to my own. There are plenty of philosophies I don't agree with that are every bit as valid as mine. While I'll argue in favor of safe and legal abortion un- til I'm blue in the face, the pro-life stance makes sense to me and I re- spect it. And if I can return for a moment to the second part of my argument and the ingenious Mr. James Burke, even the philosophies of barbarians can make us all stronger. While Burke sees the downfall of society as we know it looming in our not- too-distant future, he also sees some- thing new rising out of the destruc- tion. Even the things 1 hold most dear can be replaced with something better. That's the evolution of soci- ety, and it can't be stopped. We are all of us surrounded by an infinitely intricate web of infor- mation and opinion, and it's up to each of us to pick out the good stuff and make up our own minds. This column is nothing more than one tiny strand in that great web, a la- goon in a vast ocean, a drop in the biggest bucket you ever saw. I hope you've enjoyed it. I know I have.

After a tough road trip, which included tough games at George Mason and at Campbell, the Pirates would split the previous four games. So for Gary Overton's troops, there was no place like home. The Bucs opened the three game series up with the hated Seahawks by sweeping the visitors in the series doubleheader 15-2 and 7-4. "We feel that every conference series is important, so we approached this series just like any other series with the same intensity and we re- sponded Overton said. The Pirates would draw first jblood in the bottom of the first off of Jone of Antaine Jones' two triples on the afternoon which drove in Randy iRigsby. The Seahawks would tie the �Bucs in the following inning, but from �then on it was all Pirates. After regaining the lead in the bottom half of the third inning, the Pirates would once again explode of- fensively in the middle innings, scor- ing 13 of the 15 runs total in the middle innings. "1 feel we played well all week- end defensively, but we played to our optimum level on Saturday offensively as wel' as defensively Overton said. The Pirates broke the windows out on Saturday in the first game, crashing their 15 runs by way of 19 hits. The Bucs not only got it done at the plate, but they also got it done on ,the mound as well. The Pirates would send Patrick Dunham to the hill and he, with help from Parks Buie in the ninth, would hold the Seahawks to only two runs off of five hits. His de- fense would back him up, committing no errors. "We received excellent pitching from Dunham as well as crisp defense in the first game to go along with the excellent hitting Overton said. Dunham allowed only two hits and registered six k's in eight innings of work to up his record to 6-2. The Bucs would also get five RBI's as well as a dinger from TEC Athlete of the Week Randy Rigsby. The second game proved to be a little closer as the Pirates had to come back from a 3-2 deficit to win 7-4. Bryan Smith would get the nod in the seven inning second game and would get some help from senior Jeff Hewitt "In both games on Saturday we had excellent defense led by our out- standing pitching performances - Dunham in the first game and Smith in the second game Overton said. The Pirates jumped out early tak- ing a 2-1 lead going into the fourth inning; from there, the Seahawks would take their first lead of the week- See BASE page 23 Dave Pond Senior Writer Before the 1996 men's track season, there were many questions to be answered regarding the squad's success during the upcom- ing season. Enter ECU's version of the Fab Five, who have more than done their part in helping the Pirates steamroll their way into the upcoming CAA Championships. Damon Davis, Rashawn Deans, Mike Miller, Vaughn Monroe and Chris Rey have blended their talents with the rest of the team to form a dangerously- fast squad ready to take on the CAA's best runners in Harrisonburg, Va. this Saturday. "The season has been going great Rey said. "No one's hurt, which is the big thing right now. Everybody's healthy - and going into the final stretch of the season, that's what you need Good team health and solid per- formances from the Pirate newcom- ers were me only question marks surrounding this year's squad, which seems to get better with ev- ery meet. On Saturday, ECU's 4x400- meter relay team, consisting of fresh- men Davis and Miller alongside jun- iors Dwight Henry and Lewis Har- ris, shattered their previous-best time by over two seconds, posting a first-place 3:05.35 at the Duke Invi- tational. As well as being a new ECU fast time for '96, the foursome's Photo by MICHELE AMICK Pictured here are the members of the '9596 ECU women's swim team. For the second consecutive year, the women claimed top honors at the CAA conference championships. Amanda Ross Sports Editor With back-to-back CAA champi- onships behind them, the ECU women's swim team is looking to continue their winning tradition. Head Swim Coach Rick Kobe was pleased with the performance of the Lady Pirates last season, es- pecially during the final meet that saw the Lady Pirates walk away with their second consecutive CAA cham- pionship. "We knew we had a good shot to win, but they won it really hand- ily, which was fun Kobe said. "The nice thing about our championship meet was the 17 girls that we took, 15 of them actually finaled, and the two girls that didn't final, won a con- solation event We just had a lot of depth and that's what won the meet for us The unique thing about this year's women's championship event, was that ECU didn't win a single event, but still came away with the overall victory. According to Kobe, this was made possible because the Lady Pirates finaled two to four swimmers in ev- ery event. ECU will again look to be a strong con- tender during next season, with the recent sign- ing of top re- cruits. "This next year we plan on being even stron- ger Kobe said, wgmmmmmmmmmmm "We plan on be- ing faster than we were last year. We graduated seven really quality girls, four of which were on our championship team. But all seven played a big part in our success this year Kobe says that they tried to fo- cus on recruiting freestylers for next season. "Freestylers were our priority, because everybody we graduated was a freestyler and we did that Kobe said. But it was not just freestylers Kobe was looking to add to his roster next season. "I would say freestyle, butter- fly and diving was what w� were really look- ing at getting af- ter, and righl now we have seven girls com- mitted to coming to this school.f Kobe said. "Of the seven, we have two outstanding divers and five very excellent freestylers The signees so far include, Hollie Butler, a Kinston native and: a YMCA national qualifier, who will See SWIM page 21 "We knew we had a good shot to win, but they won it really handily, which was fun � Head Swim Coach Rick Kobe �'��'�:� .

"The 4xl00-meter relay team is on the verge right now, we need just a little more practice and finesse as far as the handoffs go Rey said.

If we have a warm day, we can perform to our maximum potential One thing these young Pirates have learned already is to set realis- tic goals towards their successes both individually and as a team. "One thing people have to real- ize, is that we are not going to come back with a conference champion- ship after this weekend, simply be- cause of the limited number of ath- letes on the squad Rey said. "We are just going to all go out and rep- resent East Carolina University the best that we can. See RUN page 22 Revenge is not a word coaches like to say, but this past week the ECU baseball team got their share as they beat Campbell 84 last week on the road in Buies Creek. If you don't recall, less than a month ago the Cam- els stole their first game in Greenville since 1988. Though it was a hard fought game by both teams, the narrow loss left a bitter taste in the mouths of the Pirates. "Despite the varied outcome. I felt we played very well both times we faced Campbell Coach Gary Overton said. Offensively, every Pirate in the order improved their stats by having at least one hit apiece. Catcher Tim Flaherty got things started by answering Campbell's one run lead in the second, by smacking a single to give the Bucs their first hit of the game. "Defensively we played excellent baseball both out- ings, but we had better bats and run production the second time Overton said. Flaherty would tie the game after a William McLean error and the Pirates would eventually take the lead when freshman Steve Salargo plated Chris Glanz to put the Bucs up 2-1. The Pirate lead would not hold up as the Camels looked steady in the early going, scoring one run for the first three innings. The Pirates then took control in the fourth, after trailing 3-2, the Bucs exploded scoring six unanswered runs in the middle innings to return the favor. "We had confident hitters that day and utilized all of our tools which we need to keep doing in order to be suc- cessful Overton said. Versatile freshman Travis Thompson banged in a run off of his fourth inning double which tied it and speedy freshman AntaineJones registered a single to give the Bucs the lead. Senior Lamont Edwards rapped a two-run double of his own to finish the inning, and the Pirates would not look back. In the fifth and sixth innings Jason Head and Lance Tigyer got in on the action by plating the final two runs for the Bucs. Defensively, the Pirates let only one Camel cross off of seven hits and committed no errors to hold off any late game rally. "We played defensively with intensity in the field and on the mound Overton said. "I feel that this was a very important non-conference win against a solid program which defeated our club earlier in the season. So. it was an im- portant win Overton said. The Pirates would ride their payback victory out of Taylor Field back into Harrington to face conference rival UNC-Wilmington to wrap up the week.

In the sec- ond game of the doubleheader, the Lady Pirates, led by Tracie Podratsky, of Centerville, Va (13-4) shutdown the Hampton squad notching one strikeout, but hitting four batters. Outfielder Heather Smith scored all three times she stepped up to the plate, and sec- ond baseman Jolin Eckman, along with teammate Sharolyn Strickland drove in two runs apiece to lead the ladies to vie tory 9-0.

"So we are real happy with the seven kids already, and I would say we will probably have a total of 11 including the divers, when it's all said and done Kobe is excited about the new signees and expects the girls to be as fast, and in some cases faster. than some of the girls already on the team. But is a third champion- ship in the works for next season? Kobe thinks so. They will have the ability to win another championship, and they will have to perform Kobe said. "But on paper, we will look really strong With more signess on the way. Kobe likes what he has so far, and is thrilled about adding a few more to the roster. "We give ourselves an A' for re- cruiting Kobe said. Recruiting is an ongoing pro- cess that takes a lot of dedication in trying to get the best possible swimmers for the team. It involves a lot of phone calls and persistence. "Every two weeks these kids get a phone call, we write them a couple times a month, so we develop a good relationship with them by way ot mail and the phone Kobe said.

When they leave they have a pretty good feel of what the uni- versity has to offer, and the kind of kids that are on the team According to Kobe, that is 'he process that they have always used in recruiting and he says it works well for them. Kobe says he does attend some meets to focus on I kids he has been recruiting, but mail an ! phone calls is how they usuiliy go about recruiting. Kobe expects to have around 30 members on the women's roster for next year. But let's not forget about the men's swim team. This season, the men placed fifth in conference cham- pionships and Kobe says the men swam well, and he expects to see a stronger squad for this season. "Obviously the guys that are coming back are excited about the potential for next year Kobe said. 'The guys team for next year will be much improved To date, the men's team has four men committed to coming to ECU. Two recruits. Patrick McGonital. from Jessup, Md and Mike Gulian. from Stafford. Va who Kobe says are outstanding distance freestylers, are both Junior National qualifiers that will had talent to the team. Andrew Burns, from Greens- boro.

The fourth signee is Nathan Kreel, from Cary. who swims the breaststroke and is YMCA National qualifier. "All our recruits are national qualifiers at either the YMCA level or the L'S swimming level, so these are quality people who are going to come in here and make a mark Kobe said. But look for at least four more men added to the team when al! is said and done. Kobe expects to have at least eight, what he calls, top-notch freshman to go along with the solid kids we have coming back. With only two members 06 the men's swim team lost to graduation. Kobe expects next year's team tojcon- sist of around 20 men. which heton- siders perfect. Kobe would like to see 4ach team come away with the CAAlitie next season. "Our goal next year is to wintwo championships Kobe said. "Ve're real happy with this year, they both had winning seasons. The men ished at 7-3 while the women finished at 8-2 Kobe anticipates an excellent season for both the men and women and expects to see an increase in vic- tories.

P0 BOX 919, BRBARD, NC 287E 22 Tuesday, April 16, 1996 The East Carolinian JKUIN from page 18 With just twelve talented ath- letes, it is impossible for the Pirates to score points in enough events to garner first place in Harrisonburg on Saturday- as other conference schools have a wider range of ath- letes specializing in field events as well as sprints. "Even if we finish first in both the 4x100 and 4x400-meter relays, the highest we can possibly finish is fifth place Monroe said. Monroe holds the Pirates' 1996 fast times in three different sprints - the 55 meter-dash, the seldom-run 60-meter and the 100-meter dash. Fellow frosh Damo.i Davis, a highly- skilled ECU running back during the track "offseason holds the squad's best time in the 'OO-meter dash. The 4x400-meter relay's success in Durham only added fuel to the fires of determination that have driven ECU'S freshmen in prepara- tion for the CAAs. "They were in lane eight - one of the worst lanes for a relay - and they ere still able to run a 3:05 Deans said. "That's all we've been talking about ever since Saturday. It sparked the whole team, and we can't wait to start practicing for Harrisonburg To Rey, success at the confer- ence championships is as necessary as it seems inevitable to this optomistic group of sprinters. "That's are goal - what we talked about when we got to Greenville he said. "We wanted to represent ECU the way it should be done and keep the tradition going. We don't want it to go down. "Coach Larson is known for building a tradition and for every- thing that he's done here, so we want to continue the legacy of track and field at East Carolina Under Carson's tutilage. Davis. Deans, Miller, Monroe and Rey have all survived the "baptism by fire" that comes with immediate partici- pation as a freshman athlete. One thing is for certain no matter the outcome of the CAA Championships - the Fab Five is ready to race into the ECU record books and continue the Pirates' legacy of success for years to come.

After trading runs with the Seahawks in the fourth and fifth innings, the Bucs took control in the fifth scor- ing four runs to seal the sweep. "We we're confident at the plate and we played baseball that we're very capable of Overton said. "I feel we played excellent baseball The final game proved to be an ECU UNC-W classic. The Pirates put Chad Newton on the mound to wrap up the three game series. Newton would be in an old fashioned pitch- ers' duel with UNC-W's Jason Ramsey. Newton and Ramsey would trade scoreless innings for scoreless innings, until the Seahawks would squeeze out a run as well as the vic- tory in the tenth inning. "Like I said before, we played ex- cellent defense the whole weekend with outstanding offense on Satur- day, but on Sunday we couldn't gen- erate any offense Overton said. The Pirates would only register four hits on the day along with three errors which gave the Bucs the loss, "ft was disappointing that we couldn't generate any run support for Newton's outstanding pitching performance Overton said. Newton allowed five hits no runs and registered two k's in eight innings. Ramsey pitched his best game of the year allowing only four hits and sitting down 13 Pirates. The next task ahead of the Bucs will be one that the whole city should be up for. Everybody knows how the faithful Pirates buzz when the despised Wolfpack comes to town. The Pirates will host NC State tonight for a non-conference match- up. "The State game is always a big game for our fans and players alike Overton said.
