p- July 10,1996 Vol71,No. 63 The East Carolinian Circulation 5,000 East Carolina University Greenville, N C 10 pases Around the State RALEIGH (AP) - Consumers will benefit from a court ruling allowing the manufacture of a ge- neric version of the ulcer medica- tion Zantac, but the corporate side-effects remain to be seen. Novopharm Ltd a Canadian company, won a court ruling last week allowing it to make a cheaper, generic version of the Glaxo Wellcome drug that is the most widely prescribed medicine in the world. Any job losses in Zebulon might be offset by the $38 mil- lion plant Novopharm has built in Wilson, where it hopes to be making the generic version of Zantac by July 1997. KENANSV1LLE, N.C. (AP) - A man accused of killing a mem- ber of a well-known Duplin County family cannot plead inno- cent by reason of insanity, a judge has ruled. Coley was charged with first- degree murder in the slaying of Willie Phipps of Faison. Phipps and his father, Lacy, were driving to the grocery store Sept 5 when a bullet fired from the woods struck their car, hit Willie in the back and killed him. Another bul- let grazed Lacy's head. Coley could get the death penalty if he is found guilty of first-degree murder. Even though the judge re- jected the plea, state law requires the court to allow evidence sup- porting the insanity defense. Albright ordered that Coley un- dergo a psychiatric evaluation this week for the prosecution's use. Around the Country ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) - A fired nurse's aide was charged Tuesday with raping a comatose woman, who later gave birth with- out ever regaining consciousness. Prosecutors said a DNA analysis of blood taken from John Horace, 52, established him as the father. Horace was arraigned on charges of rape and sexual abuse for allegedly attacking the woman last summer in a nursing home in suburban Brighton. The 30- year-old woman was injured in a car wreck in 1985. The woman's Roman Catho- lic family ruled out an abortion, and she gave birth normally on March 18. The 2-pound, 11-ounce boy was born two months prema- turely but was otherwise healthy. Horace could get up to 32 years in prison. DETROIT (AP) - General Motors Corp. is recalling 292,860 1996 and 1997 cars because of a defect that may cause the vehicles to backfire and in rare cases lead to engine fires. The recall includes some 1996 Pontiac Bonneville sedans, Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight and Eighty-Eight luxury cars, Buick Park Avenue, LeSabre, Riviera and Regal models and some 1997 LeSabre sedans that have 3.8-li- ter engines, the automaker said today. All were built before May 1996. UNC budget debate continues Legislators grapple with House and Senate Amy L Royster Assistant Naws Editor The UNC system budget is up in the air while legislators try to compromise the republican-con- trolled House of Representative's budget with the democrate-con- trolled Senate's budget in a spe- cial session called by Gov. Jim Hunt According to SGA President Angela Nix, on Monday July 8, a conference committee returned to Raleigh in order to start from scratch on the budget. Nix said that there are sev- eral issues being debated by leg- islators which will directly affect ECU. Health insurance for gradu- ate students, tuition remissions, salary increases for state employ- ees and faculty, money to enhance fire safety equipment in residence halls, the Fire Safety Loan Fund, the Distinguished Professors Endow- ment Fund, and funding for technol- ogy are issues that would be affected by the budget "I want students to realize that there are key officials who are will- ing to help us but we must contact them while they are in the special session to let them know our posi- tions Nix said. As reported in an earlier issue of TEC , the House's initial budget provided for none of the governor's suggested $100 million for the UNC system, cut $6 million from the cur- rent budget and put $398 million in savings. In an Asheboro press conference held on June 27, Speaker of the House Harold Brubaker justified the House's plan to keep $398 million in savings by explaining that the state needs to save for a future School Con- struction Bond. "The House and Senate have proposed a School Construction Bond referendum of $1.8 billion, by far the largest in state history Brubaker said. According to a memo from Emmett M. Floyd to the board of trustees, the Senate ammended the House's budget by adding $65 mil- lion more for universities. The Senate's budget included approxi- mately $4.5 million for health insur- ance for graduate and teaching as- sistants, $17.8 million for funds for academic enhancement, $750 thou- sand for the Distinguished Professors Endowment fund, $200 thousand to strengthen undergraduate education and $3 million for equipment and telecommunications. Nix said that the time has come for the conference committee to come up with some sort of compro- mise. "The UNC budget will be a com- bination of the House and the Sen- ate budget Nix said. "I hope that students take the time this week to encourage their legislators to pass a budget that is most favorable for the university Senator Ed Warren (D-Pitt) said that he hopes that the House of Representative's budget will arrive on his desk by Wednesday. "Once the House sends us their budget we will react immediately Warren said.

Royster Assistant News Editor "I wanted to make sure that the governor knew that students have strong concerns about the UNC system's budget SGA Presi- dent Angela Nix said. Last week SGA officials from ECU attended a citizensforum scheduled by Gov. Jim Hunt in which the governor attempted to draw last minute input from citizens before the special session of the legislature met to finalize the state's budget The citizens forum was held Wed. Jury 3 in New Bern in courtroom num- ber one of the Craven County Court- house. The forum was one of four fo- rums which were also held in Char- lotte, Goldsboro and Green�ooro. A panel of legislators including Senator Beverly Perdue were also in atten- dance. Nix, SGA Vice-President Eric Rivenbark and SGA Treasurer Jonathan Phillips said they traveled to the forum in order to speak with legislators specifically about the UNC system budget Rivenbark said that his motiva- tions for attending were similar to Nix's. "It was important that when the governor stopped in Eastern North Carolina, that he see representatives from ECU in the form of student gov- ernment, panhellenic representatives and reporters Hunt opened his address by speaking about the issues which were left unfunded when the House of Rep- resentatives and the Senate failed to reach a budget Hunt said the state had been left without plans for pris- ons, additional staff for district attorney's offices and money to en- force environmental bills. "The legislators left without a budget with more than 12.500 more students coming to schools in about a month Hunt said. Hunt explained his proposals for the budget which included expanding Smart Start, putting a uniformed law officer in every school, giving school teachers a pay raise, leaving $6 mil- lion in Raleigh in savings and placing students with behavior problems in alternative schools. Hunt said that the UNC sys- tem would fall behind other uni- versities unless the budget in- cluded funding for state employee pay raises and technology. "I think we have got the best public university system in America Hunt said. "It's slipping in important ways. We are losing top people Hunt opened the forum to citizens' questions and comments for more than 30 minutes. While See BUDGET page 3 Uhe University (Remembers Belk-Tyler gives arts a boost Jacqueline D. Kellum Staff Writer (antes (3u �arris ECU Student Stores reluctanly bid a fond farewell to one of its dear- est allies, James E. Harris, who passed away after a heart attack on June 13. Known mainly for his years of service and dedication to ECU Student Stores, Harris was an asset to the university for many years. Harris, who was responsible for the art and school supplies in the Student Stores since 1967, took pride in his work and made sure the book store kept up with the latest trends. Fellow employees remember Harris saying that the part of hs job he enjoyed most was meeting and helping the customers. Harris, a native of Farmville, attended NC A&T in Greensboro and is survived by his wife, Pearl, two daughters, Jennifer and Debbie and two grandchildren, Emily and Wesley. East Carolina got $10,000 closer to their goal of raising $2 million for an endowment for the arts when a gift was presented to the Office of Institutional Advance- ment. The Campaign for the Arts began soon after the Shared Visions campaign ended. Carol Woodruff, who is the director of marketing in the Department of Uni- versity Unions and is also the acting director of the S. Rudolph Alexander Performing Arts Series, said that the Shared Visions campaign was a fund-raiser for the entire campus in general. "It was a big fund-raising effort for the whole cam- pus-wide community, which closed in December Woo- druff said. After the Shared Visions campaign ended, having raised $50 million for the ECU campus, the focus shifted to the Campaign for the Arts. "Shared Visions was the biggest fund-raising effort that the University had done collectively for the entire university. A lot of the funds that came in were ear- marked for a specific department. There had never been any real effort to seek money specifically for the arts Woodruff said. The Campaign for the Arts is relatively new and received a significant boost with the $10,000 gift from the Belk-Tyler Foundation. The Belk-Tyler Foundation has a history of support- ing the arts at ECU. Mr. Greenville Banks, who is the Regional Manager of Belk and the General Manager of the Carolina East Belk, has particularly been involved in ECU's arts activities. The Carolina East Belk was one of the charter members of the group which eventually See ART page 3 Photo Courtesy of Department of University Unions Mr. Greenville Banks, Belk Regional Manager and Manager of Belk at Carolina East Mall, presents Vice-Chancellor of Institutional Advancement Jim Lanier with a $10 thousand check from the Belk- Tyler Foundation to benefit the S.

Physician's assistant program gets $667,334 Kelly Sullivan Staff Writer ECU'S new Physician's Assis- tant Studies Program is already re- ceiving recognition only five months into the program, thanks to a major grant. The Kate B. Reynolds Chari- table Trust of Winston-Salem awarded the School of Allied Health Sciences with a $667,334 grant to be dispensed over a three year period. It is the largest grant ever received by the School of Al- lied Health Sciences. The grant will help launch a new undergraduate program in Physician's Assistant Studies, Dr. Harold P. Jones, dean of the School of Allied Heaith Sciences said. "This generous grant from the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust will make it possible for us to move forward with the Physician's Assis- tant Program, which is critical in making health care accessible to all the citizens of North Carolina Dr. Jones said. Football stadium expansion on hold Budget to determine Dowdy- Ficklen fate Amy L Royster Assistant News Editor ECU officials with big plans for Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium are holding their breath waiting to see whether or not legislators will include money for an expansion of the stadium in the state's budget Mike Hamrick, ECU's athletic di- rector said that $6 million has been re- quested from Raleigh in order to add 8,000 upper deck seats on the north side, 1,460 club level seats, and 3,000 end zone seats. Hamrick said that the university has raised $12 million in pri- vate support for the expansion. "F every two dollars that we put into the project we wanted to ask the state for one dollar Hamrick said. Hamrick said that the $6 million will pay for itself in approximately 3.3 years because of the amount of money that visitors to the stadium will spend in the local economy. "The expansion is good for the economy Hamrick said. "We will have additional seats for additional fans who will spend money staying in local ho- tels and eating in local restaurants Hamrick points to research on an upcoming game in Charlotte as testi- mony to the stadium's value to the economy. "The upcoming NC State game that will be played in Charlotte over Thanksgiving will produce $20 million for the local economy Hamrick said. Hamrick said that the expansion will directly effect the economy by pro- viding 750 new jobs within the stadium. In addition to additional seats, Hamrick said the plans call for cosmetic renovations as well. During the last session of the leg- islature, the $6 million was not included anywhere in the budget According to Nix, much finger pointing began over which legislator was responsible for fail- ing to include the money, which was a request from the capital, during the last session. In a fax to TEC, Aldridge included a copy of a bill to be introduced in the second extra session of the legislature, dated July 1, entitled An Act To Appro- priate Funds To the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina to complete expansion of the Dowdy- See STADIUM page 3 The program's educational goal is to provide a primary care- oriented, rural-based training pro- gram for entry-level health care professionals. "The philosophy behind the Physician's Assistant Studies Pro- gram fits well with the School of Medicine's emphasis on training generalist physicians Dr. James A. Hallock, dean of the School of Medicine, said. The program was approved by the University of North Carolina Board of Governors in February. It is the only state-supported assistant studies program in North Carolina. Physician assistants are health care professionals licensed to prac- tice medicine under a physician's supervision. Some of their respon- sibilities include taking medical his- tories, performing physical exami- nations, ordering and interpreting tests, making diagnostic evalua- tions, writing prescriptions and carrying out treatment plans. The Kate B. Reynolds Chari- table Trust chose to award ECU with the grant based on the S-hool of Medicine's dedication to increas- ing access to health care in unde- served areas, John H. Frank, direc- tor of the trust's health care divi- sion, said. The grant will help pay the salaries of two staff members who will develop clinical training sites and one staff member who will handle admissions. It will also fi- nance equipment for the program and other educational costs. Without the grant, recruitment and admission to the program may have been delayed. Jim Keller, act- ing director of the program, said. Now the program will proceed ac- cording to schedule, admitting its first 20 students next spring to be- gin studies in the summer of 1997. "The grant'sl a life saver Keller said. The program has already re- ceived nearly 2.700 inquiries. Pref- erence will be given to North Caro- lina residents who live or have lived in rural, medically undeserved ar- eas in the state and demonstrate a commitment to returning to those areas after graduation. The Kate B. Reynolds Chari- table Trust was created in 1947 by the will of Mrs. William N. Reynolds of Winston-Salem. Three-fourths of the trust's income is designated for use in health-related programs and services throughout the state, with the remaining one-fourth devoted to the poor and needy of Winston- Salem and Forsyth County.

Mr. Banks also participated in deciding which performers would come to campus each year as a mem- ber of the Performing Arts Series Committee. The $10,000 gift that Belk-Tyler gave was designated specifically for the Performing Arts Series, but will also count toward the $2 million goal. The Performing Arts Series brings a variety of high-class perform- ers to ECU each year, such as world- renowned ballet companies, sym- phony orchestras, theatre troupes and individual performers. Next year, the Performing Arts Series will in- clude the North Carolina Dance The- atre, the London Chamber Orches- tra, and the opera The Barber of Seville, among others. It was re- named the S. Rudolph Alexander Performing Arts Series in June of 1995 in honor of the man who founded the series. The $2 million goal of the Cam- paign for the Arts, once attained, will be shared among the School of Art, School of Music, the Department of Theatre Arts, and the Performing Arts Series. "Theoretically, if we raise $2 mil- lion, and the interest rates were such that we were each able to skim $30 thousand a year from it for the four different areas, that would just be a huge boon to each of us Woodruff said. The Performing Arts Series is currently supported by ticket sales and the support of patrons such as those belonging to the Friends of the Performing Arts Series. Students who are interested in obtaining tick- ets for either the full 1996-97 sea- son or individual performances are eligible for discounted rates and can purchase tickets at the Central Ticket Office in Mendenhall. Kelly Sullivan Staff Writer After achieving a dramatic in- crease in seat belt use, the North Caro- lina governor's highway safety initia- tive has turned its efforts to cracking down on drunk drivers. The North Carolina Booze It & Lose It campaign, the nationally rec- ognized program dedicated to reduc- ing the number of alcohol related au- tomobile accidents, is getting a new weapon to help stop drunk driving. On July 1, officials unveiled a state of the art breath-alcohol testing mobile unit to aid officers in enforc- ing the campaign. Assistant Public In- formation Officer Frank Smith said the mobile unit will be equipped with everything officers will need to en- force the program. The 32-foot long vehicle will be equipped with two intoxilyzer 5000 breathalyzers, telephones, worksta- tions, lavatories, DWI checkpoint signs as well as cones and traffic vests. "One of the things the unit will be used for will be at checkpoints Smith said. "It will help local police departments and smaller police de- partments by solving the problem of travel time. A lot of the time, officers have to take drunk drivers all the way back to the station for alcohol tests, and this can take a lot of time. One of the benefits with the unit is that ev- erything will be right there Smith says that the Booze It & Lose It campaign will be more suc- cessful with the addition of the mo- bile unit "The unit will also be used as an educational tool at high schools to educate kids on the dangers of drunk driving, and so that they can see what happens to drunk drivers when they are caught Smith said. The mobile unit will be accessible to all state enforcement agencies by bookings through the Forensic Test for Alcohol branch of the Department of Environmental Health and Natural Resources. The 1995 Booze It & Lose It pro- gram is a continuation of the most extensive statewide law enforcement and education effort in U.S. history! The goal of the program is to lowoC the number of impaired drivers o�� North Carolina highways, saving lives, preventing injuries and avoiding the health-care costs associated with al cohol-related traffic accidents. "We've seen a dramatic decline, in the number of alcohol related; crashes since the program began (in! 1994) Smith said. "For example, in-i 1990, there were 602 alcohol-related- fatalities in North Carolina, account ing for 44 percent of overall traffic fa talities. In 1995, there were 392 deaths only 27 percent of all North Carolina traffic fatalities. That's a dramatic de cline and a good improvement. Of, course, too many people keep dying, I but this program is helping to elimi- nate that" The mobile unit was scheduled to appear at a checkpoint between 10th Street and 14th Street on July 2 but was canceled due to poor weather. A ; return date is planned but has not been , scheduled yet For more information contact CapL John Ennis at Greenville Police Department at (919)8304330. !

What are they thinking? In a time when America can barely compete in the world market because our educational system is a joke, they decide to slash funding. With an almost $400 million excess in the state budget, they decide that they can no longer afford to subsidize one of the better state university- systems in the nation. It's not that the amount they're cutting is crippling. Spread out over the whole university system, $6.3 million will only cause a few ripples here and there in the individual schools. Of course, anybody who's ever worked for the university will tell you that things are pretty lean as it is. But we'll squeak by. The real insult here is that these cuts come in the face of Gov. Hunt's proposed $100 million increase in the university system budget. That extra money was going to go to stuff like salary hikes for faculty and staff, health insurance for teaching assistants, new equipment and library materials, research grants and financial aid. While these are things the universities certainly need to keep up with other schools around the country, we could get by without them. Granted, with that extra $400 million float- ing around, you'd think they could cough up a little more dough for their schools. But to cut more on top of that In part, this is an attempt by the House to force the UNC system to raise its tuition rates to match those of other schools around the country. On the surface, that doesn't sound like an unreasonable request But you have to realize that North Carolina has low tuition because some smart cookie in our state's history realized that the vast majority of our population is poorer than dirt. With higher tuition rates, a lot of North Carolina citizens would never make it to college. They'd never leave the farm, or the ghetto, and we'd be every bit as ass-backwards as the rest of the country seems to think we are. But low tuition reaps the state other benefits, too. Stu- dents flock to North Carolina from all over the country be- cause they can go to school cheaper here than at home. More students equals more people, and more people equals more money. More money equals good business, and a stronger state economy. Raising tuition could be disastrous for North Carolina, but the money to keep the schools cunning has to come from some- where. Let's face it, the UNC system has become the victim of petty political squabbling in the state capitol. Hunt faces a lot of opposition in the Congress, and their refusal of his univer- sity budget is just a way for them to strike out at him. Some- body needs to remind these jokers that education is not a po- litical football they need to be kicking around. Not with what's at stake. Luckily, the House is still kept in check by the Senate. If the Senate budget is more favorable to the university system, we may not see the cuts voted on by the House. Let's hope the Senate is a little less petty, and a lot more realistic. Gov. Hunt's budget proposal for UNC system was trashed by the House. But the $6.3 million in additional cuts is a slap in the face to education in North Carolina.

Patton's place falls to VMI has Southern political correctness discomfort Anthony Slade Opinion Columnist Lm Edward M. Kennedy, U.S. senator, 1995 I would like to start out by expressing my absolute lack of gratitude for the Supreme Court having complicated the gender issue in America even further. The Virginia Military Institute (VMI) ruling was a move that was completely dic- tated by the politically correct" mandate cast upon Ameri- cans during the reformation fervor of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Give this nation a fresh decade and we think the slate is perfectly clean to begin instilling new ethical quotas. The media parsers with even- special interest group in the self- importance handbook and next thing you know, there's no smoking allowed in Taco Bell. Blink, collect yourself, and you suddenly realize that your face is stinging because the food server has slapped you silly for referring to her as a waitress. Then one morning Charlie Crewcut (name changed to pro- tect his real chauvinist identity) wakes to his first day at VMI. hops out of his bunk and heads to the latrine where he finds another cadet engaged in the non-traditional VMI process of shaving her legs. Oh. it's only the lonely dream of a freshman, homesick for his girlfriend, right? Actually, the reality is that our constitution has a little section in it about equal protec- tion. Last week this clause enabled our justice system to de- rail the VMI legacy by ruling that females must be allowed to apply to the military college. This coming after a 157 year trend of all-male enrollment The decision by seven of the eight Supreme Court justices will not oniy cause huge rifts in the flow of education at VMI. but in America's academic institutions collectively. The libertarian philosophy that change is good is appro- priate and necessary' in a great deal of our socioeconomic dilemmas, but only through prudent and logical consideration. What seems to be lacking in this coeducational landmark is foresight There is no question that women should be en- titled to a fair shake when vying with men for job status. It should also go without saying that the idea of equal protec- tion should secure a level forum for females in the coed class- room. The problem is that it doesn't We have heard on mul- tiple occasions in the past that the Constitution is outdated. The ideals that our forefathers put forth were noble and just but have been consistently ineffective in the past half century. Yet it is the dog-eat-dog credo of our wonderful bu- reaucracy that is still perpetuating dissension amongst the sexes in academic facilities. So why are schools like the Citadel and VMI being targeted by the ACLU and groups like the National Organization for Women (NOW)? It's not so difficult to see the motivation. When Nancy Mellette decided that she wanted to be the first female admitted into the Citadel, it didn't take long for feminist coalitions to make her their flagship. What better way to set a precedent than to take on one of the oldest male traditions in the nation? Poor Nancy just wanted to serve her country. She didn't realize that groups like NOW are more interested in extermination rather than integration. The VMI incident is no different Rather than creating a sensible alter- native. NOW opted to use the Supreme Court which is ma- nipulated by a 320-year-old document that in theory reserves the right to change the policies of any public establishment As usual, there is a gap between theory and reality. Reality is that this is a disruption in a process of higher learning that produces a more ethically sound man, which is what we all want right? That's why the school still exists, because that is what it was good at Perhaps in a Utopian setting it would benefit all if a military college were open to both sexes. The state of our nation does not allow this though. The line be- tween genders has widened due to the misuse of equality issues as a political tool. Special interest groups continue to come up with short-term solutions to long-term problems they have perpetuated. It seems that the admittance of young women into VMI is only a preamble to a huge sexual harass- ment scandal that will undoubtedly occur. Until then, NOW will wait for the opportunity to seal the fate of an undeserv- ing scapegoat Colleges and universities were created to suit the spe- cific needs of every individual. Public funding has enabled every type of person to learn without the distraction of preju- dice. The Virginia Women's Institute for Leadership was formed with that idea in mind. It may not have been as well orchestrated as it should have been. That is due to the misap- propriation of public funds, not because VMI wanted it that way. Unfortunately, Patton's alma mater is now in a catch-22. To retain male exclusivity would require outrageous private funding; that's not likely to happen. The other side of the coin shows a quality school going under, because the people who initiated this change do not want to see integrated suc- cess in its hallowed halls. This gender modification at VMI has exploited these young women; calling attention to them will inevitably cause endless arguments in a setting that is designed to preserve peace. At the same time, the special interest groups involved will get the kickbacks they wanted from al! this attention in the first place. I think Patton would agree that this has all been one big red herring, where young women like Nancy Mellette get no other opportunity than to be an answer to a trivia question. Jennifer Hunt Opinion Columnist Women walking among the rats and wrecking havoc on a 157-year-old tradition is becoming a reality for the Virginia Mili- tary Institute (VMI). This is the feeling of many of the alumni, students and staff of the institute. They see women as a threat to their precious system and rules, instead of opening up their eyes and arms to the amazing set of challenges put before them. This Friday and Saturday, the board of visitors of VMI will meet to devise their official response to the Supreme Court's June 26 ruling that the institute must admit women or forego its public funding. In the days since that ruling came down, some alumni did openly weep, others were extravagantly defiant "We've had people urge us to do things we didn't think were proper, spiteful things, vengeful things says Edwin "Pete" Cox III, the outgoing president of the VMI Alumni Association, who declines to elaborate but says he didn't answer those particular letters. The more rational extremist view, meanwhile, was to make the school private. The money needed would likely top $100 million. Becoming a private school would be loaded with prob- lems. As a private school, VMI would no longer receive a state subsidy. This year, the school will receive $103 million from Virginia taxpayers. Directors of the school's Alumni Association have decided to recommend a multi-million dollar fund-raising effort to give VMI the money to separate from the state. "But no one has written a six figure check yet" said Col. Mike Strickler, spokesman for VMI. You might say that the upcoming meeting represents a struggle for the institute's Southern soul, having lost its six-year battle to remain all-male (a battle that was nothing if not South- em. the doomed attack on the high ground, Gettysburg all over again.) To many Southerners, of course, there is nothing so distasteful as having the federal government tell you -once again- that you are wrong and backward and need to change. Even if the government's right VMI has two equally Southern solutions that lie before it It can accept defeat with honor and grace (like Robert E. Lee), or it can self-destruct in the process of defiance. "If we've teamed anything, we've learned to take orders says Cabell Brand, VMI class of 1947. But it's also true that in the course of its distinguished military history, VMI has culti- vated a reputation of keeping up the fightand not backing down to defeat VMI's response is also a '904sh angry mate quality and a sense of violated male solidarity that mirrors the response to the nation's service academies when, 20 years ago. Congress compelled them to admit women. It is also worth pointing out that a certain other Southern school reacted surprisingly: two days after the ruling came down the Citadel declared that "effec- tive immediately it would "enthusiastically accept" qualified women. Not VMI. Instead, Superintendent Josiah Bunting III de- scribed the ruling, written by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, as a "savage disappointment" to VMI alumni and warned that the Institute couldn't rxssibry begin admitting women this fall. And now the board of visitors is taking weeks to produce its final answer, leaving us to wonder if Virginia will attempt the same contortions it committed with "missive resistance" in the 1950s (inducting the creation of private academies) in a fruitless and dishonorable effort to avoid integrating public schools. In filing after filing, the state of Virginia had argued that women would "destroy" VMI, saying that men would never feel comfortable encountering women in the rat line, which is the central element of the school's self-described "adversative sys- tem" of ritual deprivation and humiliation. It is for this reason that the privacy option is being dis- missed by many alumni and VMI supporters. Bunting is even downplaying the possibility. "The school and its supporters and students will discharge our responsibilities under the court or- der with honor and in a gentlemanly manner he said. Bunting has said that he will resist making all but the most minor changes to accommodate women, or altering VMI's physi- cal regime. I understand the fight and the desire to stay within the tradition, but times have changed and women are capable of exploring new frontiers and breaking barriers that hold them back. I feel that if the school were private and a woman forced entry, it would be a different issue, but the issue ahead of us is the financial funding of the school. Virginia taxpayers of both sexes should not be obligated to pay for a single-sex school out of their hard-earned taxes. "The decision's been made and I'm giad it's over says Cabell Brand who lives in Salem. Va and whose family connection with VMI goes back to the Battle of New Market "VMI fought a good fight and it s over with, so lets put this behind us and go on I would like to participate with VMI alumni who have some resources into setting up a really innovative scholarship program to get the best students we can get in the next generation and improve the school in the next 100 years making it a better school This is a hidden challenge for VMI and they haven't real- ized the great possibilities that would accompany a coed institu- tion Making VMI coed and doing it right could be the most invigorating challenge of Josiah Bunting's distinguished career. The rat line will not get in the way of the first female Rhodes scholar to walk the line. This is a new and exciting challenge and it should be embraced with an open mind and optimism for the future.

Sometimes a superficial sense of self-worth can be had for less. Last week, while I was finishing a Number Three at Subway, an aged schizophrenic slapped me on the back. This guy was at least six-two and weighed well over 200 pounds. I almost choked on my sub. �'Cuse me sir he said, �you a Christian man?"

Ah nostalgia, thou art as cruel as thou art comforting. Most of the freshman that will be arriving this fall were born in 1978. the year after George Lucas' amazing space opera was first released, so they can't possibly remember what the marketing frenzy was like back then. For us older folk, however, the memory is oh so vivid. I was nine years old when my grandparents took me to see Star Wars for the first time in a dingy sec- ond-rate theater nestled in the Ten- nessee mountains. Whilst they snored away next to me. I sat in open-eyed, slack-jawed wonder as my life changed before my eyes. Unless you were a kid in 1977. you can't imagine the impact this film had on our collective imagination. It exploded across our generation and redefined the way many of us think. As with the Star Trek fran- chise.

Yum! See FETT page 7 Beck Odelay Derek T. Hall Staff Writer People, are you ready for this summer's most explosive album? Beck Hanson, who some would argue is the epitome of music's comical side, has surprised us with Odelay. an excel- lent follow up to last year's Mellow Gold. If you're hoping I would give a brief explanation of the lyrics on this album, forget it. Beck speaks a lan- guage all his own. "And everybody knows my name at the recreation cen- ter he sings on "Devil's Haircut" the opening track. Not a lyric that you would find on an everyday album: however, it is Beck's charm that makes him the star that he is. As the disc rolls on, you'll find a crazy tune called "Where It's At?" Most likely you've had the pleasure of hearing this on your local radio station. The song is basically about how different people get their groove on. It's about everyone having a good time in their own way. On this album alone. Beck Hanson plays acoustic guitar, slide guitar, electric guitar, harmonica, bass, drums, percussion, analog key- boards, electric piano, clavinet, organ, and celeste. And he sings! Don't get me wrong: he did have a few of his friends come in and record a few tracks, but there is no reason at all that his name shouldn't be on the cover. It's his sound. It's his band. It's Beck and that's all there is to it. The most impressive thing about this album is that it's not done to im- press anyone. It's exactly the ingredi- ents that could serve as fills for ev- eryone else's studio work, but Beck does something special with it that turns that filler into a masterpiece. Another great thing about Odelay is the artwork. The pictures on the inside are things he's touched upon in the recording of the album. On the back cover is the phrase L Suis un Revolutionaire That's French for "I am a Revolutionary Some won't know what to think about this. Some will listen to the record. read this, and still not understand. That's the whole great thing about Beck. It's for him to understand and for you to find out. if you want to. No pressure! This album will probably serve as Beck's finest work: however. I will not be surprised to find out that his next release goes through the roof as well. After all, he is a revolutionary. Characters bog down Independence Day Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor "It's War of the Worlds meets The Towering Inferno I imagine phrases like that were thrown around quite a lot when Independence Day. this summer's biggest blockbuster film to date, was being pitched around Hollywood. In this big budget ex- travaganza, the writingdirecting team of Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich (Stargate) have at- tempted to mesh the sensibilities of 1950s alien invasion films and 1970s disaster movies. On the surface, it sounds like a great idea. An all-out alien inva- sion, all the world's greatest cities wiped out in minutes, heroic regu- lar joe types fighting against impos- sible odds, several million corpses I can't imagine a much bigger di- saster, or much better subject mat- ter for a popcorn sci-fi epic. But in addition to all that, we're presented with no less than 13 characters that we're supposed to care about and keep track of through all the destruction. Granted, only about five or six of them have what I would call lead- ing roles in the film, but dragging around seven or eight supporting characters (and a virtual army of minor characters) takes its toll. By the time we're introduced to all the co-workers, children, spouses, generals, radar operators, deadmeat fighter pilots, housepets and general rabble the film throws at us, I just don't care anymore. You'd figure, with the aliens bump- ing off so much of our surplus population, that some of these people would die. But no. They live, and linger, and spend most of the film's first hour dragging things down. And to make matters worse, al- See INDEPENDENCE page 7 The Lemons Sturdy -1 Pat Reid Staff Writer While "sturdy" isn't usually used to describe a lemon, in the case of The Lemons' debut album it works fine. Sturdy is just that: a solid effort of driving, catchy songs that leaves no one questioning how The Lemons like their music: loud and powerful. At the opening of "In My Way" The Lemons lay down a sound of driving duel guitars and a full, solid rhythm. It's in this fashion that Sturdy manages to never let up on energy or force until the last note of "Any Mere Mortal" fades. How- ever, this same drive and pounding rhythm leaves them without much diversity and may end up being their downfall. By the start of "Shakin' My Head the second song on Sturdy, it becomes apparent that lead singer Greg Loveli isn't much for singing: however, emotional screaming seems right up his alley. Fortunately, the music and Lovell's vocals man- age to complement each other for the time being and leave "Shakin a pretty catchy punk song. In fact. Sturdy seems to be based on catchy punk songs. Unfortunately the third song, "Alright Already is the beginning of a downhill turn for the musical side of The Lemons. After a few more mediocre songs, the lack of actual singing begins to take its toll, See STURDY page 7 I Acting saves Phenomenon Travolta triumphs as super genius in comedy-drama Dale Williamson Senior Writer Humans are fascinated with those who possess extraordinary in- telligence, particularly when the sub- ject can make for a good story. In 1968. Cliff Robertson won an Acad- emy Award for his portrayal of a men- tally retarded patient turned genius in Charly. Last year, filmgoers expe- rienced the wondrous intellect of Powder. And now regular guy John Travolta expands his mind in Phe- nomenon, a film that isn't as intelli- gent as it would like to be but is still packed with enough emotion and talent that one doesn't care. The almost tired concept of Phe- nomenon is simple enough. Travolta plays George Malley. a totally likable yet simple man who lives in a small Capraesque town. George isn't an idiot. In fact, he has a desire to learn what he can. including such things as the Spanish language. However, things just don't melt easily enough into George's brain. That is until George is struck by an unknown, blinding flash of light from the night skies above on his 37th birthday. Suddenly. George is able to compre- hend everything from chess to phys- ics. The bulk of the film focuses on George and his struggle to be a su- per genius unlike anything human- kind has ever known and at the same time remain the same old George ev- eryone in his small California town has always loved. Director John Turteltaub, who last hit it big with While You Were Sleeping, and writer Gerald DiPego stumble at several points, but they ultimately are able to deliver on the emotional goods. Like Powder. Phe- nomenon goes straight for the heart by filling the story with tender mo- ments where characters truly inter- act with one another. George's rela- tionship with Lace (Kyra Sedgwick) and her children is handled in a subtle, honest manner that serves to further develop George and the film's overriding theme of humanity. Also. Turteltaub and DiPego ex- plore some intriguing elements within their concept, such as the See PHENOMENON page 6 � mini Attractions Coming soon for your edification and amusement: Wednesday.

The three-part series on PBS examines the medium and the people who make it, exploit it and watch it. But "Signal" has some- thing up its film sleeve: the pro- gram slyly uses TV's tricks to en- tertain as well as enlighten. The snappy pacing and lippy at- titude say MTV; the meaty commen- tary they adorn says beware, tele- vision is more than just a home for "Wheel of Fortune and we must understand how it influences us. A subversive dissection of tele- vision using television � now that's truly Must-See TV. The Indepen- dent Television Service series airs on consecutive Thursdays starting this week and concluding July 15. Producer-writer Cara Mertes, who originated the idea and orches- trated the work of 21 independent filmmakers, says creating a lively program that praised TV, while at the same time damning it, was in- deed the goal. "We wanted the show to be dif- ferent because we wanted to say hey, we know some people like tele- vision. In fact, a lot of people like television. In fact, we like televi- sion, too But that doesn't mean blind de- votion. "We respect its effect, respect its potential and have no respect for how the potential's been wasted said Mertes. The first hour, "Watching TV Watching Us looks at TV's com- mercial soul and the love-hate rela- tionship the medium inspires in the viewers-consumers it manipulates. "The ads on TV, I think, are a bunch of yelling people, and they're all arguing Buy me, buy me, buy me we hear from a bright young TV watcher, Zachary Gelnaw-Rubin. "Watching TV" gives TV admir- ers space, too. One quirky little seg- ment consists of a producer's paean to actress-comedian Roseanne; when the star and fan meet, Roseanne seems bemused by her devotion. The second episode, "TV Real- ity?" charts how society is pre- sented and shaped through news and entertainment programs. "Re- mote Control the concluding hour, is a sobering look at the promised glories of TV, including interaction, in the age of the infor- mation superhighway. "Signal to Noise Mertes ex- plains, is a catchy engineering phrase. If the signai-to-noise ratio is off in any transmission, including TV, then the signal can be interrupted and "you're not getting any infor- mation. So it kind of metaphorically applies to TV she says. Mertes makes sure she's got the right ratio in her series, creat- ing a forum for many voices with- out losing sight of the big-screen picture: the social, economic and political implications of TV and how to uncover them. There are, appropriately enough, soundbites galore: If television is a window on the world, and it can be, it's always important to remember that somebody's framing it for you cautions veteran journalist Linda Ellerbee.

The filmmakers even offer an alter- native explanation for George's situ- ation, one which attempts to be more plausible than extraterrestrial inter- ference. Unfortunately, the film is not without its weaknesses. Turteltaub goes for the MTV crowd too much by filling in the gaps with nifty pop tunes from the likes of Peter Gabriel over lengthy montage sequences. And DiPego goes for the golden Oscar with too much zest by giving his characters one too many preachy lines. Dialogue dealing with a man's need to support his woman and a man's human spirit meaning more than his brain's biological make-up aren't totally nauseating here simply because the outstanding cast is made up of solid professionals. Ultimately, Phenomenon is saved by its cast Robert Duvall and Forest Whitaker naturally improve any film they touch, and Kyra Sedgwick is an underrated presence that deserves more box office attention than such flat performers as Demi Moore. Even with the strong supporting cast, the film's true hero is Travolta, who shows no sign of slowing down since his comeback. Unlike his char- acters in Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty, George Malley is a regular Joe who only desires a simple life. And unlike his performance in Broken Arrow, Travolta gets an opportunity to tone down his act and focus his efforts more on an actual human being as opposed to some caricature. The film demands an actor with Travolta's cha- risma, and he definitely delivers. Phenomenon is not (forgive me for saying this) a phenomenal movie. The pacing is probably a bit too le- thargic for many, and a good editor Greenville, You'r Special Every Da Of The Week At Western Sizzlin! Mon. k Wed. � Chopped Sirloin Dinner .1 Express Lunch!

Star Wars mania hit its lowest point when the Donny and Marie Osmond variety show did a musical skit featuring themselves as Luke and Leia. Kris Kristofferson as Han Solo. Paul Lynde as Grand Moff Tarkin. and Redd Foxx as Obi-Wan. complete with roller-skating, scantily clad female stormtroopers. This too can be had on video at most conventions for an equally exorbitant price. Star liars spawned two sequels which were so popular that I doubt I need to name them here, and next year, 20 years after its initial release. Star Wars will return to the big screen in a new enhanced version with addi- tional computer-generated special ef- fects. To introduce this 20th anniver- sary extravaganza, Lucas has engi- neered an unbelievable marketing blitz, the keystone of which is the re- release of some of the most success- ful consumer products ever: Star Wars action figures. Originally, the popular line of toys stretched over all three movies, was in continual release from 1977 until 1985. and included over 100 fig- ures. 20 vehicles and several playsets. The amount and variation of toys avail- able was a wonderland for kids and a nightmare for their parents. Nowadays, those same figures are worth some serious cash and I wish I still had mine. I made the mistake of giving them to my little brothers, who proceeded to mangle and destroy the INDEPENDENCE fr.mp.ges entire collection. Luckily for all the nostalgia junk- ies like me the figures are making a big comeback. Although many of the buyers are older Star Wars fans, there are quite a few kids out there scarf- ing them up too. As TEC staff writer. ECU graduate student and Star Wars fan Dale Williamson puts it. "Star Wars has influenced much of the en- tertainment we have today. We are nostalgic about it because of how it first affected our imaginations, and we want that for our children as well Beginning late last year. Kenner Toys began releasing a new line made with new molds for the '90s con- sumer, each costing about $5 apiece. Princess Leia now sports a massively muscular physique and Luke looks strikingly similar to professional wrestler Lex Luger. Despite those flaws, the figures are flying off the shelves faster than the Millennium Falcon in hyperdrive. Everybody can once again own their vevy own Boba Fett. It appears that the market for these hunks of plastic is so strong that in less than a year the collect- ible price for Princess Leia or Lando Calrissian (two of the harder to find figures) is as high as 40 to 50 dol- lars. And it's not stopping there. Plans call for an almost never-end- ing line of new figures, possibly eclipsing the colossal numbers of the original release. Considering how much interest there is now, by the time the next trilogy of new films appears Lucas may very well conquer the world by bankrupting it. most all the actors are stuck play- ing the worst kind of Hollywood stock characters. So we get Randy Quaid as the Alcoholic Crop-Duster who Saw Too Much in Nam. We get Will Smith as the Cocky Black Fighter Pilot (basically, that's Will Smith in a flight suit). We get Judd Hirsch as the Crotchety Old Jewish Father. We get Jeff Goldblum as the Re- ally Smart Guy who gets so caught up in his own thoughts that thethethe the words, yes the words, they, ah, they don't come out the way they're supposed to (you know, the guy he's played in every movie since, ah. The Fly). Oh yeah, he's Environmentally Con- scious, too. The only person who gets to do much of anything interesting here is Bill Pullman as the presi- dent. Pullman gets what is easily the juiciest part in a rather dry collection of characters with his Gulf War hero president, a reason- able man of peace who. once all the facts are on the table, takes deci- sive action. Also to Independence Day's credit is the handling of the inva- sion itself. The special effects are very nice indeed, and they didn't blow the best shots (that is, those that look the least like models) in the commercials. The arrival of the alien ships is pretty awe-inspiring, for example, and some of the dog- fight sequences are also quite thrill- ing.

Their technology is some of the best sci-fi design work I've seen in a long time; all the various ships are variations on the basic flying saucer design, from the small two-man fighters all the way up to the huge Mother Ship that stays in orbit. Devlin and Emmerich even tie the whole thing into our existing UFO abduction mythology, right down to visiting the top-secret gov- ernmental alien research facility, Area 51. These sequences, in fact, are some of the best in the film, giving us the only scenes of the aliens in action outside their ships and establishing them as success- ful villains. Blowing up a bunch of cities is all well and good, but un- til we see our heroes face-to-face with the bad guys, they remain a vague, impersonal threat. So yes, Devlin and Emmerich hit all the alien invasion notes cor- rectly. The problem is. those notes are pretty obvious ones. Anybody, given the formula and a halfway decent video dub of The Day the Earth Stood Still, could have cobbled this script together. Of course, I'm a big fan of these movies. I've seen a million alien races attempt to take over the Earth in a million different movies. This is very familiar ground. For a more mainstream audience, how- ever, maybe it's fresh and different and new. But not for me. Despite Inde- pendence Day's flag-waving good time of a climax, and its nice spe- cial effects, I can't say I found it much more than mediocre. With so much stuff fighting for screen time, the film ultimately chokes on its own poorly-chewed conceptual steak. On a scale of one to ten, Inde- pendence Day rates a six. OlUivDY from page 5 such as on "Plead the Fifth The song starts out excitingly different from the others and proves itself to be as musically sound as the first couple of tracks, but Lovell's growls break the groove and lower the com- plete song. In fact, about the only highlight song left after "Shakin' My Head" is "Any Mere Mortal Instead of jumping right into the song like usual The Lemons build up to a cli- max and kick a pounding groove until the end. Overall, Sturdy is a pretty mu- sically sound album. The Lemons pull from the punk stylings of The Ramones on "Come Ta Grips" and are reminiscent of The Kinks at the beginning of "Flack Pulling on this wide a range of influences helps the band to achieve a high level of achievement musically. Too bad for them that Lovell's growl drags the whole effort down. Another bad point for them is the narrow sound of Sturdy. There is only so much a band a can do with basic driving riffs and pounding rhythm. That recipe was okay this time, but the album shows no real diversity and leaves me wondering what they'll do next. Hopefully by opening for such a diverse range of bands as Circle Jerks, Cheap Trick and Fear they are learning new things and will be able to spread their sound out some in the future. ma EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY "Last year I had an opportunity to live on campus and be a winner.

Well, sports fans, there's trouble in the Queen City. That's right, the Charlotte Hor- nets are stirring a ruckus in the NBA community. At least the fine folks in the front of- fice are. Let me give you the situa- tion. The Hornets' owner, as well as founder, George Shinn, is not satisfied with his team playing in a multi-million dol- lar arena that is less than a de- cade old. HMMMM. I guess I should give you my prognosis of the situation. I know the new fad for pro- fessional franchises is threaten- ing to move if they don't get the facilities they so desire. For example, the Houston Oilers moving to Nashville. The last few years the city couldn't care less what happens to the team. Attendance is low, interest is way low and the maintenance as well as field quality is inhu- manely lov. I mean folks, (to imitate Jeff Foxworthy) "if you stop play at a NFL game because you have to patch up the astro- turf, you might need to get a new stadium Now that's a need for either a new stadium or a new location. Now when you talk about the Hornets, that's another situation. There is no real in- terest or fan support problems for Shinn's troop, and this isn't an 80-year-oid rattrap they're playing in. It is one of the top notch arenas in the NBA. Sure, a downtown arena would be more convenient for other teams coming in. but George, let's think about what you're saying here. You want to build an arena in place of a 20.000 seat capacity facility that is usually sold out to start with, just for a more conve- nient location? George, check the fan sug- gestion box, pal. I think your fans, the folks that pay the bills when it comes to pro sports, don't want to see a new arena. I think you gave them one thing they've been wanting, a new coach. Now the other thing that Hornets fans do want to see is, yes. a renovation in the Char- lotte Coliseum. It's not extra luxury boxes. No, not a new scoreboard. It's a new piece of the hardwood that says "1997 NBA Finals Cathy Biondo Rec Services Interested in getting fit for the summer or just relaxing?

File photo MLB Leaders AMERICAN LEAGUE East Division- New York Central Division- Clevland West Division- Texas NATIONAL LEAGUE East Division- Atlanta Central Division- St. Louis West Division- San Diego The Pirate football team, seen here in the Liberty Bowl, will now be affiliated with Conference USA. ECU hopes to begin conference play as early as the 1997 season. Amanda Ross Sports Editor ECU is now breathing a sigh of relief. The university's quest to be affiliated with a football confer- ence has been met. Over the past year. Conference USA was showing a lot of interest in accepting the Pirate football team into its program. That inter- est is now a reality and the only thing left to do is work outthe fine details of the contract. ECU will not play in the con- ference this year, but Athletic Di- rector Mike Hamrick hopes that ECU will begin conference play in 1997. A big plus with the affiliation to the conference is the scheduling of future non-conference games. "Over the next eight years our non-conference games will im- prove Hamrick said. Some of the teams scheduled for the next several years, which in- cludes games played here in Greenville and away, include Duke. Miami. Navy. N.C. State. Syracuse, Virginia Tech. Wake Forest, and West Virginia. Along with the non-conference games. ECU will play games with the teams in Conference USA. Those teams are Cincinnati. Hous- ton, Louisville. Memphis. Southern Miss, and Tulane (with Army possi- bly being added to the conference later on as well.) "We will have a great confer- ence schedule and we are really ex- cited Hamrick said. A conference affiliation will also mean that ECU will have the chance to play for a national cham- pionship, something that hasn't been possible since 1977. Confer- See FOOTBALL page 9 � Drive" to Bradford Creek Time to tee it up at area courses Craig Perrott Assistant Sports Editor Note: This is the fourth in a series about golf courses in and around the Pitt County Greenville area. The Bradford Creek Golf Club here in Greenville has been plagued by bad weather and bad luck. Forced to close down for the majority of this summer, the course is ru- mored to be ready to re-open at the end of this month. The course is conveniently lo- cated on Old Pactolus Highway, just down the road from the Big Splash driving range. If you don't know where in the world that is. just take Greenville Boulevard east towards Washington (the town, not the nation's capitol). When you leave the Greenville city limits. Greenville Boulevard turns into alternate 264. Travel about a mile or two and turn right at the first light you come to. This is Old Pactolus Highway. The Big Splash is about half a mile on the right, behind Hard Times, and Bradford Creek is a couple of miles furher down on the right. You'll know you're in the right place if you see an old graveyard in the middle of the parking lot (yikesl). As mentioned earlier, Bradford Creek has been closed for some time to repair damaged and diseased greens. When I last played there, they were using the temporary put- 10 Minute Water can be swim for your Photo by CRAIG PERROT a pretty thing to look at and play in; but when you're golfing the object is to avoid having to balls. Play it safe. Leave it short of the water, hit it well past or expect to grab a snorkel. ting surfaces, which was like putting in your yard. 1 missed a two-foot birdie putt on one of those things. That sucked. Anyway, the rest of the course, excluding the greens, is pretty good. The fairways are of nice quality, and with the exception of two holes, are straight on and wide open (which is how I like em). The first fairway is parallel to the practice range, giving me and my fellow slicers an opportunity to lose a ball to start with. There is another graveyard between fairways two and four. If I hit a ball in there, I'm not going to get it. They should have a "Bradford Creek Halloween Holiday Tournament" in October. Holes 12 and 13 offer dog legs for the eager golfer. There is a suffi- cient amount of water and thick brush to make you take some drops, and plenty of sand for you to cuss at. A wise man said one time that the best sand shot was not to hit it in the sand at all. This is a Scottish style course equiped with a few grass-filled bun- kers (Or were they greens?). If you saw Jack Nicklaus at the Scottish Open last year, you know that it took the Golden Bear 17 strokes to get out of one of those bunkers. Don't be afraid, though. I personally don't think they're as bad as that. The cart paths are the only paved ones in town, and the club house, which is still under construc- tion, is a huge facility and is ex- pected to be very plush. There isn't much shade on the course since it's out in the farm lands, but there is usually a good breeze blowing. Take along some sun screen if you're a fair skinned golf enthusiast. Bradford Creek is a brand new course and is going through some natural growing pains. In five years or so. when everything has had time to grow and fill out, 1 predict this will be an excellent course. Back in the spring, the rates were S10 to ride nine holes and $15 to play the whole course. When they open back up. the green fees will probably be about five dollars or so more than that. Don't hold me to that, though. Rating: On a scale ranging From driver to putter, with putter being the best. I give Bradford Creek, or at least the replacement green ver- sion, a five wood. In due time, this course has the potential to achieve a wedge or even a putter status. It you just want to hit some balls, the Big Splash aqua driving range is the place for you. At this range, you actually want to hit the ball in the water. Self-billed as "the country club of driving ranges the Big Splash offers a large driving fa- cility with grass and mat tees, a chip- ping area, a sand area and a putting green. Buckets of balls range from about $2.50 for a small bucket to $8.50 for a large one.

ECU is very familiar with the Lib- erty Bowl, go ing for the past two years, and of course win- ning the bowl game last year against Stanford. Earlier in the talks with the board of di- rectors of Con- ference USA, there were some problems between Louisville and the board. Louisville was concerned about adding an- other member to the conference because it would cut down on their non-conference games. At one point, there was some speculation Obviously, that expansion dealt with us here at East Carolina, and now we are in the process of working out the details � Mike Hamrick whether Louisville would remain a member of the conference, but ac- cording to Hamrick, Louisville will stay. "Louisville and the conference had some disagreement on some is- sues, and after some serious discus- JJ,J , sion they came to the conclusion that the best thing for the con- ference would be to expand Hamrick said. "Obviously, that expansion dealt with us here at East Carolina, and now we are in the process of working out the details There was also a lot of speculation that the Big East conference was look- ing to end its affiliation with Temple and allow ECU to join, since we play many Big East opponents and have fared well. "We did have some discussion with the Big East but at this time Conference USA is the direction we are heading to Hamrick said. "We need a conference to play football in Besides scheduling perks, be- ing affiliated with this conference will boost ECU's participation in working with other conferences around the nation, as well as some of the top football programs in the nation. "Conference USA is one of the eight major equity conferences, therefore we will have a significant vote in the governing of the NCAA . If there is ever a national playoff for a national championship in foot- ball, I'm sure the eight conferences will be involved with that playoff. There are a lot of pluses Another plus is the national ex- posure ECU will receive with more air time on the television. "They have an excellent televi- sion contract Hamrick said. Hamrick sees nothing but posi- tive things resulting from ECU join- ing the conference. "It gives us good scheduling opportunities, we create rivalries and we will play for a conference championship Hamrick said. "We needed to be in a conference. There are very few schools that aren't in a conference and I just don't think we can survive without being in a conference, unless you're a Notre Dame Many schools who have been traditionally independent football programs are now seeking affilia- tions with conferences.
