Fee increase proposed for fall
Student rec center

reason for

ECU students will have to dig a
little deeper in their pockets next
year to pay for the possible increase
in student activity fees.
The ECU Boa-d of Trustees at a
meeting on Dec. 8th suggested set-
ting the student activity fees at $689
for the 1996-1997 academic school
year. This is an increase of $37 over
this year's student activity fees.
"The increase in fees would go
into effect at the beginning of the
fall semester said Richard Brown,
vice chancellor of business affairs.
The recommendations for an in-
crease in fees will go to the Univer-
sity of North Carolina Board of Gov-
ernors, which has the authority to
set student fees for all UNC institu-
tions.
The majority of the money re-
ceived from the increase in fees will
pay for the operation of the new Stu-
dent Recreation Center, which is
scheduled to open next summer.
Other areas that would benefit
from raising fees are the Student
Media Board, the Athletic Depart-
ment and computer technology. All
the fee increases were endorsed by
the Student Government Association.
"One of the ways the fees will
benefit the students at ECU will be
by allowing them to have a high
spied network allowing them to be
on the cutting edge of computer tech-
nology Brown said.
The Student Media Board in-
crease was requested to pay for the
cost of a yearbook. The last printed
ECU yearbook, The Buccaneer, was
distributed in 1990. Since then a
video yearbook has been provided to
the students. Trustees endorsed the
media board fee increase contingent
on the presentation of a detailed plan
for the yearbook at their next meet-
ing.
The trustees also endorsed a
new debt service fee of $8 to help
pay for the construction of the new
intramural fields.
"The $8 will help ECU pay off the
mortgage of the intramural field, a
$1.6 million project" Brown said.
Brown also said the raise in the
student activity fees will benefit the
sports programs at ECU.
"To get conference affiliation we
have to enhance our programs which
is driving up cost" Brown said.
ECU is not the only school in the
UNC-system schools who are increas-
ing fees. Brown said that every school
system is required to request a fee
increase by the end of this month.
Many students on campus are
very unhappy over fee increases.
"I don't think they need to raise
the fees, because we pay enough al-
ready said Krista Kempe, a freshman
biology major.
Another student is upset because
she feels she is already paying too
much for tuition.
"I don't think there should be any
more increases said Lisa Goodman,
a sophomore speech pathology major.
"We have had increases every year,
and I have never seen the benefits.
Out-of -state students have it bad. It
is hard to find money to come here
Brown said other options were
pursued, but there was no other way
to enhance programs at ECU.
"The fee increase will help have
a dramatic impact on student life
Brown said.

Drug violations
jump in number
Education could

Marguerite Benjamin
Asaletant New Editor
Fall semester 1995 brought
about some surprising trends in stu-
dent behavior on campus. An in-
creased number of drug related inci-
dents were reported, and several stu-
dents learned what it means to disre-
gard established codes of conduct
A recently completed crime re-
port showed drug violations on cam-
pus increased from 33 in the fall 1994
semester to 52 in the fall 1995 semes-
ter.
Al Matthews, vice chancellor for
student life, said the most reported
violations have centered around mari-
juana use.
"It all seems to have started hap-
pening all of a sudden Matthews

Garrett Hall has been the center
of attention for a while because of
drug violations ranging from posses-
sion to manufacturing with intent to
sell.
In December, two ECU room-
mates (Stephan Michael Langston, 18,
and Johnathan Alan Mauney, 19) were
charged with multiple drug violations
and suspended from enrollment after
police found 125 marijuana seeds in
their room at 103 Garret Hall.
Another drug-related incident in
Garret Hall (on Nov. 16), left one stu-
dent battered and four other students
arrested and charged with assault with
a deadly weapon.
The victim reported that he was
attacked by a group of four or five

In response to the American Red
Cross' emergency appeal for blood,
ECU students are encouraged to do-
nate blood at today's blood drive at
Mendenhall.
The drive, sponsored by the Bi-
ology Club, will take place from noon
until 6 p.m.
According to the Blood Services
Consultant of Pitt County, Debbie
Page, the current nationwide blood
shortage is the result of patient and
hospital demand exceeding the sup-
ply.
The blood collection shortage
began because of low donations dur-
ing the holiday season.
Then the Blizzard of 1996 fur-
ther decreased the supply because
transportation to blood centers be-
came impossible and many centers
were forced to close.
"Large centers such as those in
Boston and Norfolk were closed due
to the winter storms Page said.
"Those centers usually collect 12,000
to 15,000 units a day
In order to change the current
situation, the Red Cross hopes to col-
lect several hundred units of blood
over the next few days.
In an effort to help, the goal of
today's campus blood drive is to col-
lect 125 units, but hopes are for 250
units.
"We think this event will be very
successful. The amount of response
of help we've gotten will contribute
well to solving the problem Page
said.
Page said that although many
people are responding to the Red
Cross' appeal, a problem is that only
six percent of the population donates.
Page said another setback is that
people often don't feel that their do-
nation can make a difference. How-
ever, Page said that one donation can
help as many as four people.
"That makes a big difference
considering one automobile accident
can use 30 to 40 units of blood Page
said.
As a result efforts are being fo-
cused on the ECU student population
because many students are eligible to
donate.
In order to donate you must be
at least 17 years old, weigh at least
110 pounds and be in general good
health. Donors can donate every 56
' days.
"Your blood donations are ur-
gently needed in the community
Page said. "Give blood. Give the gift
of life

About the Liberty Bowl fans.
Joyner to receive
new painting
I would like to thank the 12,000 or so East Carolina fans that were
there for the Liberty Bowi game. It was just a wonderful experience for
everyone. We had a great week On Friday afternoon at about four o'clock,
they had a parade, the Liberty Bowl parade, and it ends up coming down
Beale St. It was so exciting. I rode in the .parade in one of the cars, and
virtually everyone along the parade route was wearing purple and gold. It
was just a tremendous outpouring of affection for East Carolina University
and a great demonstration of spirit by our students and friends.
About the Liberty Bowl game
I thought the Pirates performed exceptionally well. It was a hard fought
game in the sense that both defenses played brilliantly.
About the increase in drug violations
We do take this issue of drug usage, and the selling of drugs, very
seriously. There is a policy by the Board of Governors which was adopted a
few years ago which requires each of the institutions to set certain penalties
for those who are found to be either using drugs or selling drugs on campus.
It's our intention to comply fully with the guidelines of the Board of Gover-
nors, and we believe that drug usage is not appropriate on campus. We will
take every step that we can to ensure that students are free of this contami-
nating influence. Taking every step we can take not only involves enforce-
ment but it also involves education, which were attempting to do through
student life, arid that is an ongoing effort In some sense, when there is an
increase in the number of arrests or violations it is a problem that we need to
take into account I think this is something that is troubling to me
About the student fee increase
On an ongoing basis we are required to review our fees and to make
adjustments in the fees. Some of our costs are increasing due to inflationary
pressures and other factors. Sometimes we have a need to increase the
programs that we think would be to the benefit of the students and in so
doing, we will bring about the need for increased fees. A case in point would
be the student recreation center, and its opening this summer. Unfortu-
nately, it has been delayed, but it will be opened this summer. When we open
that center, we will have an increase in costs. This is a facility that students
began to ask for from the very first day I arrived on the campus, and we are
now finally able to deliver on their request It's gcng to be a wonderful
addition to student life and the university. It will obviously require additional
costs, additional fees. There are a number of areas in which we are proposing
fee increases. In any case, these fee increases have been very carefully ana-
lyzed, both administratively and in concert with student government and
student committees. We are required to do that to have the consultation of
student groups, but I hope that we would even in absence of that clause
because it is a health way to proceed.

Eric Olsen, a student at ECU,
won a competition in which his paint-
ing was selected to hang in the North
Carolina Reading Room. The North
Carolina Reading Room is one of the
new additions being built at Joyner
Library.
The painting titled "Fifth Street
Greenville" depicts a section of Fifth
Street in front of the Jenkins Fine Arts
Building.
The committee who chose
Olsen's work noted its artistic beauty,
the way the scene captures the es-
sence of many streets in cities and
towns throughout eastern North Caro-
lina.
"The reason 1 painted Fifth Street
is because it looks like a basic east-
ern Carolina town Olsen said.
The art competition was spon-
sored by the James J. and Mamie
Richardson Perkins Foundation. The
foundation is a philanthropic organi-
zation in Greenville.
Faculty and students of the ECU
School of Art competed to win the
award from the foundation for ?n
original work of art that was repre-
sentational in nature and reflected .he
history, traditions, geography, archi-
tecture or culture of eastern North
Carolina.
The foundation awarded Olsen a
$5,000 commission and $1,00 in ex-
penses for his 3.5-foot by 10-foot
acrylic representation of Fifth Street.
"Winning the competition was
quite a honor Olsen said.
The selection committee con-
sisted of the Rev. C. Thomas Midyette
III. rector of St. Paul's Episcopal
Church and a member of the Perkins
Foundation Trust Distribution Com-
mittee; Donald R. Lennon, coordina-
tor of Special Collections at Joyner
Library and Kaury York, North Caro-
lina librarian at Joyner.
"We were overwhelmed by his
work Midyette said. "The judges
liked his style and his freedom. Mr.
Olsen's work epitomized the small
intimate style of North Carolinians
Olsen believes that ECU's cam-
pus is one of the most beautiful cam-
puses in the state and it represents
eastern North Carolina well.
"Since my arrival to Greenville,
this section of the street and its ar-
chitecture has made a lasting impres-
sion on me Olsen said, "My proposal
reflects enthusiasm toward this sec-
tion of town as it visually relates to
the lifestyles of our community.
Whereas, other college campuses are
typically boxed into a grid system, East
Carolina stretches down Fifth Street,
connecting people from either side of
town and beyond. In this sense, our
university's ground plan takes advan-
tage of the dynamics of this major
thoroughfare
Recreation offered

Grace Sullivan
Staff Writer
The Department of Recre-
ational Services offers an Adapted
Recreation and Intramural Sport
Enrichment Program (ARISE).
The Program is designed to of-
fer individuals with disabilities the
opportunity to participate in rec
reational activities.
Coordinator of Recreational
Services, Paulette Evans, is in
charge of organizing these activi-
ties and seeing that the disabled
population are being provided the
opportunity to engage in recre-
ation and leisure activities suited
for them.
"East Carolina University has
always had the program for dis-
abled students, and we are hoping
more students will join the pro-
gram Evans said.
Currently there are only about
seven or eight students participat-
ing in the Adapted Recreation and
Intramural Sport Enrichment Pro
gram.
"The program is open to all
ECU students and staff with dis-
abilities whether the disability is
temporary or long term Evans
said.
One of the more popular as-
pects of the program is the "Part-
ners in Education, Recreation and
Leisure (PER!). PERL involves
the pairing of a person with a dis-
ability and an exercise partner
knowledgeable in the activity.
Exercise partners are qualified
student employees of the depart-
ment or interns from the Leisure
Systems Studies program.
The partners assist the partici-
pants by exercising with them and
showing them the proper tech-
nique.
For example if the disabled
person was interested in weight-
training a partner would show
them proper form while assisting
them with any problems they en-
counter.
"Some of the more popular ac-
tivities have been weight-training,
swimming and running" Evans
said.

Teaching program expands

Marguerite Benjamin
Aasttiant New Editor
Current and prospective school
teachers can expect an improvement in
the area's teaching program thanks to
ECU'S Model Clinical Teaching Pro-
gram.
For the past six years, ECU and
Pitt County Schools have worked to-
gether to improve the education pro-
cess of teachers by providing more ex-
perience by way of extensive internships
and non-traditional teaching programs.
According to Dr. Betty Beacham,
director of the Model Clinical Teaching
Program, ECU's program serves as a
catalyst for many improvements in the
teacher education system.
"We truly believe, and our data
show, that the methods we are develop-
ing will mean better-prepared teachers
and administrators and better educated
children in our public schools
Beacham said.
Currently a new plan is being de-
veloped that will form an alliance be-
tween ECU, Pitt County Schools and
school systems from other counties. The
plan will form the East Carolina Clini-
cal Schools Network and will link Pitt
Beaufort Craven, Edgecombe, Greene,
Lencir, Martin, NashRocky Mount and
Wayne County school systems.
The new network, which will have
about 500 student participants during
its first year, is scheduled to begin op-
eration in the fall.
Dean of ECU'S School of Educa-
tion, Dr. Charles Coble, said the depart-
ment is exited about the expansion of

the program and is looking forward to
continued success.
"Our partnership with Pitt County
Schools has been productive and en-
riching for everyone involved Coble
said. "The expansion is just another
example of our commitment to public
education in eastern North Carolina
ECU's program has provided year-
long internships for several senior el-
ementary education majors in the Pitt
County School system. It is estimated
that within the next four years, the ex-
pansion of the program will provide stu-
dent internships in 17 counties.
According to Beacham, the typical
experience level of graduating teachers
at other universities is about 10 weeks
of classroom experience. The new part-
nership will ensure that every student
in the network will have at least one
year's experience in the classroom upon
leaving the university.
Beacham said the prograr ana the
new network amounts to a win-win situ-
ation for all involved including children,
parents, prospective beginning teachers,
veteran teachers and university faculty.
"Our students will be more skilled,
more knowledgeable and better pre-
pared Beacham said, adding that the
program will provide better teachers for
the area's public schools.
ECU's esteemed model teaching
program has received three national
awards including the 1994 Distin-
guished Program in Teacher Education
Award presented by the National Asso-
ciation of Teacher Educators.
The program is also receiving state-
level financial support The General
Assembly has agreed to give ECU a
$350,000 appropriation to create the
extended network.

tain people in the residence hall
thought he was supplying information
about drug activity to ECU police.
ECU police later arrested four
students and charged them with the
assault. One of the offenders, Karl
Armstrong Mount, 18, was also
charged with possession of drug para-
phernalia after various items known
to be associated with drug manufac-
turing were found in his room.
"I would not single out Garrett
Hall as the only problem area on cam-
pus Matthews said, adding that
other halls may have had just as many
incidents.
Dean of Students Ron Speier said
he was concerned with the increase
in drug violations in such a short
amount of time, and that the
university's answer to the problem is
increased education.
All students were sent a pam-
phlet about drug use and campus
policies (as legislated by the UNC sys-
tem) at the beginning of the academic
year Speier said. "Now I'm beginning
to worry that students either did not

type of code violation is very serious
and so are the penalties that go along
with them
Speier said that since most of the
violations were reported by residence
hall staff, the university seems to be
doing a better job of catching drug
abusers.
ECU Chief of Police Teresa
Crocker said while drug violations
occurring on campus are usually
handled through the university, the
Greenville police also have their own
statutes and do get involved on some
occasions.
The ECU Clue Book, a guide
given to all campus residents, states
on page 139. "it is not double jeop-
ardy for both the civil authorities and
the university to proceed against and
punish a person for the same speci-
fied conduct
Speier said all students should

tions provided by the university.

Holidays should
be a time to
reflect on
accomplishments,
but how far have
we come to
reaching Martin
Luther King Jrs
dream?
Yesterday we had a day off because it was Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jrs birthday. How did you celebrate? Did you
sleep late? Go to a movie? Catch up on coursework because
you're already behind?
Sure, why not It's a holiday - just like any other, right?
We at TEC don't think so. There are no other official federal
holidays that celebrate the birth and life of an African Ameri-
can. So, it is important to reflect on this man's accomplish-
ments and ultimately, what he died for.
We all know about King's work for civil rights during the
'60s. We know about his march on Washington. We know
that he preached nonviolent solutions to America's racial prob-
lems. And, we know that he died, ironically, at the hands ox a
violent man. Yet, his legacy has lived on.
Or has it?
Taking a look at the state of America today, we have to
ask ourselves are we living up to King's legacy and do we
even understand it?
America is the most violent nation in the Western world.
Private citizens want to carry guns because they seem to
have little confidence in police departments. Judicial systems
across the country are implementing, or have implemented,
capital punishment There is little time taken to look at let
alone, to solve the problems that cause the crimes.
But the violence doesn't stop there. Children are walk-
ing around elementary school yards toting guns, and drive-by
shootings have become a walk of life for some kids who know
to be in their homes before dark or to duck under cover as
soon, as they hear the first gun blast
When we look at America's racial problem, the problem
that was supposed to be solved by integration, that was sup-
posed to have been buried in the '60s, it is easy to see that it
was not
Late last year, two African Americans were killed in
Fayetteville, N.C. by white supremacists, simply because of
the color of their skin. What is even more alarming is the fact
that the attackers were in the U.S. Army at Fort Bragg. They
are supposed to defend all Americans - white, African Ameri-
can, Native American, whoever ? from foreign enemies. It's
a scary thought when members of the nation's military have
this sort of mentality roaming around in their heads.
On an overall basis, look at the great divide between the
races after the too much publicized OJ. Simpson trial ver-
dict No one can deny that the barriers between whites and
African Americans still exist The images of an overwhelming
majority of African Americans rejoicing and whites denounc-
ing the verdict tells the story.
Now, even the internet is being used to spread hate far
and wide, possibly on a daily basis, as demonstrated by re-
cent incidents that surfaced at UNC-Chapel Hill and Brown
University.
So have we really come that far from King's days? Have
we really embraced the ideals he fought and died for? Yes,
African Americans have gained opportunities because of the
Civil Rights movement and more whites have learned about
the accomplishments of African Americans. Even so, as inci-
dent upon incident of open violence and racial intolerance fill
our airwaves and television and computer screens, we have
to admit we have a long way to go.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor,
It has been fifty years since the
dropping of the atomic bombs on Japa-
nese cities. Earlier this year, there was
much controversy about the Enola
Gay exhibit at the Smithsonian. The
reason for the controversy is that
documentation has been discovered
by historians that indicates the United
States bombed Hiroshima and
Nagasaki after knowing that the Japa-
nese were willing to surrender. Fur-
ther evidence is that this was done to
intimidate the Russians and show
them the terrible destruction wrought
by nuclear weapons.
There is nothing surprising about
this to me. It corresponds nicely with
the fact that the United States and
Let's remember
every other capitalist nation on earth
invaded Russia after the Bolshevik
revolution to destroy the incipient rise
of socialism and the threat that posed
to the wealth and power of the ruling
class in every capitalist country.
Also, it corresponds with the
atrocities committed by the United
States, either directly or through
proxies, in Vietnam, Guatemala, El
Salvador, Angola, Mozambique,
Chile, Indonesia and East Timor. This
tremendous carnage, involving the
violent deaths of millions of people
and the starvation deaths of millions
more, was done to stop the spread of
socialism and ensure corporate ac-
cess to cheap labor and natural re-
sources.
'The ultimate measure of a man is not
where he stands in moments of comfort and
convenience, but where he stands at times
of challenge and controversy'

If you're thinking about looking
for a permanent job ;n the near fu-
ture, there's bad news and more bad
news. First, there are no jobs to be
found, and second, those that do ex-
ist require more experience than you
can ever possibly have.
Everyone warned me that
searching for a full time job would
be a long, tedious and depressing
task, but I never dreamed things
would seem so bleak.
My quest for employment began
last September. "I won't apply for po-
sitions I know I'm not qualified for

Weeks passed. Eventually months
passed and still no phone calls. "But

completed master's degree, five
months of job searching, lots of ex-
perience and still no job.

call home to ask for a dollar for a
can of tuna you are reminded that
you need to find a job, as if that never
crossed your mind. "Yes, mom, I am
content eating oodles of noodles ev-
ery night and listening to my neigh-
bor fornicate at 3 a.m. as my sole
form of entertainment"
They continue to tell me not to
give up, that the right job will come
along in due time -1 have the expe-
rience, you know.
What it seems that I am lacking,
after three years employment at The
East Carolinian, is "real world expe-
rience The last time I checked, I was
living in the real world. If college
does not constitute the real world,
why do our grades matter? Heck, I
could've broadened my horizons by
sitting on the top of Jockey's Ridge.
Real world experience is my
greatest gripe. If 65 students work-
ing together, without the help on
an "adult" to produce a newspaper
twice a week is not real experience,
then I am not sure what is. At
7!EC,we are responsible for what we
print just like any other business is.
The employees don't just appear
here. They are hired and fired just
like any other employees. If an ad is
screwed up, we are required to sat-
isfy the customer. But while TEC
exists, just like any other business,
we are not considered the real world.
It's funny what people think is real
experience. Would I have had just
as good a chance of getting an in-
terview if I had been flipping
burgers the past three years? It's
beginning to look that way.
Well, just when things were be-
ginning to look real bad I got a
phone call. Someone wants to inter-
view me. So now the anxiety builds
up. A good night's sleep is out of
the question. I'll be interviewing in
my head all night long. When the
big moment finally arrives, I'll for-
get all that I had rehearsed. And
when they ask me what kind of ex-
perience I have had, I'll just calmly
reply "I've been working in the land

Now that our fabulous football
season has come to a close and our
chaotic weekends are vacant at least
during the daylight hours, those of you
that have some spare time should find
some interest in Greenville's volunteer

the American Cancer Society are just
a few of the many volunteer associa-

need your support

By volunteering not only are you
making Greenville a better place to
live but you are also making eastern
North Carolina a better place. By help-
ing the community, the community
will in return help you. These services
that are functioning today may not be
in existence in the next century with-
out the your involvement and support
Besides the thousands of previous
volunteers that helped make Habitat
or the Humane Society flourish, your
interest and dedication will pay off.
Get involved today. Why wait?
Because your neighbors or your
friends are too busy does not mean
that you are not It only takes a few
minutes to pick up the phone or the
yellow pages to find out what service
would be good for you. Here is what
you should know: when does this ser-
vice meet where does it meet what
does the program offer to the com-
munity and more importantly when
can you get started?
Spring is just around the corner,
and in between the trips to the beach
can be those trips to your local social
service organizations. Because not
only your city, but your world needs
your assistance.

Color explodes for spring
Fashion '96
Sarah Wahlert
Staff Wrttor
Spring has officially sprung!
What? But it's January you say? Well
not according to designers like Donna
Karan and .?aac Mizrahi. The fashion
gods have spoken and I'm here to tell
you what you can expect to see people
wearing this springtime and summer.
Color, color and more color! Even
Calvin Klein abandoned his traditional
use of neutrals to enter this new level
of fashion. Names like apricot, water-
melon and kiwi took the place of the
usual orange, red, and green.
Pastels are back in full force.
Even business suits were shown in
colors like powder-pink and baby blue.
Shiny fabrics like satins and metallics
were still around and had also been
revived with shades of pastels. One
style that carried over was the animal
print, faux coverings like snake or
leopard.
Altogether, clothing was well-tai-
lored and had a softer image. Leather
was even more colorful and also sub-
tly shaped. Non-threatening fuzzy
materials like angora and mohair were
abundant. Hemlines dropped to the
ankle except for peacoats and
trenchcoats, which fell just above the
knee. Chanel surprisingly introduced
khakis to its distinguished line fur-
thering the theme of "relaxed chic
according to highly acclaimed de-
signer Karl Lagerfeld.
Minimalism was
a popular term
thrown around by
lots of designers
and fashion maga-
zines as well. Sim-
plicity really came
through with the
clear shapes,
strong colors,
and crisp lines
especially
those of the
sleeveless shift
dresses which were
first popular in the '60s. The
simple, plain white dress was newly
interpreted by almost every designer.
Beautifully-flowing evening gowns
were either strapless or had high neck-
lines like those of the shift dresses.
Continuing trends from last year,
besides the animal prints, included
hiphuggers (pants worn around the
hips instead of the waist), and mid-
riff-style tops to show off the stom-
ach. Piping (colored stripes around
the edges of a design) was also added
to the hip list
For the more daring, obviously-
clashing prints were also marched
down the runway. Different colors and
patterns were worn together for many
of the shows. Lace was portrayed
as outerwear, especially by de-
signer Helmut Lang, who
sent his models down the
runway wearing see-
through lace tops and
skirts.
Accessories follow
through with the pastel
renomenon, but char-
ise is oddly showing up as
ielts are fat or skinny, and
have lower heels and
squarer toes. The most popular styles
of shoe were loafers, slingbacks, open-
toe and ballet flats.
As far as hair was concerned, the
most significant idea was a technique
called "chunking which means that
thick chunks of highlights are placed

Historian discusses Ellison
Dale Williamson
Senior Writer
In an effort to allow the expres-
sion of fresh ideas and encourage pro-
gressive discussion on complex issues,
the English Department Graduate
Colloquium Committee brings Gre-
gory Robinson to ECU. Robinson, who
is the assistant editor for the Ency-
clopedia of African American Culture
and History, will give a lecture en-
tided "Invisible Politics: Ralph Ellison
on Black American Culture" on
Wednesday, Jan. 17.
Since earning his MA in history
at New York University, Robinson has
done extensive work with Post-World
War II intellectuals and race. His lec-
ture will be a spin-off from this re-
search and will focus on Ralph Ellison,
who is a major figure within his re-
search. "Many people think only of
Invisible Man when they think of
Ellison, if they think of him at all
Robinson said. "But he is one of the
most respected intellectuals in the
field of Black literature and culture
One of Ellison's major beliefs was
that blacks, despite separation from
mainstream American society and
politics, share a common culture, a
common culture that makes the black
experience a complex and rich one.
As a result of his cultural theory,
Ellison called for, according to
Robinson, "an inte-
grated, pluralistic
society Still,
Ellison did not con-
sider assimilation to
be the answer.
While blacks may
very much be at-
tached to the Ameri-
can mentality,
Ellison stressed that
they are very much
their own unique
cultural group.
Since Robinson
is a historian as op-
posed to a professor
of literature, he
brings an intriguing
perspective to a lit-
erary figure who is
often studied in En-
glish courses. "A lit-
erature person is
interested in discussing his texts and
his artistic goals Robinson pointed
out "As an historian, my interest is in
viewing Ellison's thought in its inter-
action with the thought of other in-
tellectuals working on the problem of
race relations and on the events to
which all of them are reacting
As a result of his extensive work
with the Encyclopedia of African
American History and Culture, where
he wrote and rewrote over 200 related
articles, Robinson became engaged in

prove to be a provocative, intellectual
treat for anyone concerned with
multicultural issues.

in conjunction with the English

be held in the General Classroom

Subtle Ford shines in Sabrina
Dale Williamson
oemor writer
Every good critic should admit his
or her own biases before critiquing any
sulject Being an exceptional critic, I
now admit my own personal subject
posit! m: I am a Harrison Ford junkie.
I see every movie he makes not
once but three times. I am one of the
few pr ople who defends his performance
in Mosquito Coast. I've had dreams
about meeting him. I even have a shrine
erected in honor of him in my bedroom,
but I don't want to reveal too much
about that As far as I'm concerned,
Harrison Ford should be frozen in
carbonite so future generations can bask
in his greatness.
To sum up, I think Harrison Ford
is a really good actor.
Having gotten that out of my sys-
tem, I now turn to Ford's latest film,
Sabrina. Sabrina is a remake of a Billy
Wilder film starring Humphrey Bogart
as Linus Larrabee, William Holden as
his younger brother David, and Audrey
Hepburn as the title character Sabrina.
Any attempt at remaking a film that is
considered a classic by many is tough
enough, but to follow in the footsteps
of Bogart Holden and Hepburn is sui-
cide.
However, Sydney Pollock's cast
holds its own and makes Sabrina a
modern fairy tale that may be hard to
swallow at points but leaves an overall
pleasant taste.
Pollock's Sabrina is the story of a
chauffeur's daughter (Julia Ormond)
who, while growing up with the overly-
wealthy Larabees, has fallen in love with
the brash younger brother, David (Greg
Kinnear). After spending some time
working in Paris, Sabrina returns to
America with enough self-confidence
and polish to act on her crush and suc-
ceed in the attempt David Larrabee is
interested, but also engaged to another
woman.
In order to prevent his younger
brother's downfall (and the destruction
of a major business deal, since David's
fiance is the daughter of the president
of a potentially merging corporation),

Hey there! Ah, it's great to be back, TV Whoring for the Greenville
community. And what a joy it is to be back, because over Christmas break,
while some of you were out skiing in Vale or getting some other form of
exercise, the happy elves at Multimedia Cablevision were feverishly set-

Dec. 15 heralded in this renaissance of local TV viewing - or is it
really a renaissance? I mean, did they give us the Mushroom Farmer's
Network or something? Nope, not quite that bad. In this new package

stuff:
Turner Classic Movies (TCM) is a welcome addition to those who have

responsible older brother Linus
(Harrison Ford) attempts to woo
Sabrina away from David. It works, but
Linus is surprised to find that he doesn't
have to try and act like he's interested
in Sabrina. She's an attractive and fash-
ionable young woman with a sense of
humor and a natural ability to get un-
der his skin. When Linus Larrabee falls,
he falls hard.
The overall storyline is engaging
enough, even though it does follow a
fairly standard structure seen countless
times in other romantic comedies. Still,
it's Pollock's sense of pacing, the actors'
comic timing and the film's classy intel-
ligence that make Sabrina a worthy
alternative to Ace Ventura. Even scenes
that may get tiresome and seem need-
less (such as the lengthy scenes in
France) have an entrancing effect While
Sabrina's French adventure may feel like
an MTV video at points, Pollock's cin-
ematic eye does justice to the European
atmosphere.

Get Off The Cross
We Need The

Senior Writer
The Beasties are back! Wait,
wait, don't get up and run to the
record store yet. This eight-track EP
is definitely a step back in time for
the Boys, and it's not for everyone.
If you're not a fan of their hardcore,
like their re-release album of old
skate punk tunes, Some Old
Bullshit, then you probably better
sit back down because you won't like
Aglio E Olio.
This record blazes with an en-
ergy that is surprising coming from
a bunch of married guys approach-
ing 30. Here again, as on their last
two albums, Check Your Head and
Communication, the Beasties are
playing all the instruments on the
record with Adam Yauch (M.C.A.) on
bass, Adam Horowitz (King Adrock)

When this record fell into my
lap I was immediately drawn to the
title. Get Off The Cross We Need The
Wood certainly is a title that will
spark criticism before the pages
nave been turned. Stowe, formerly
of "Face of Concern decided to do
his own thing shortly after the
band's demise in 1993. Leaving be-
hind keyboards and drum machines,
Stowe's solo effort changes focus to
concentrate on acoustic capability.
With a few hints of darkness and a
voice that whispers the monotone
of Rushs Ceddy Lee, the future
looks brighter.
Joined by family and friends.
Marc Stowe has a good start. Al-

"A Drop in the Bucket" is just
what it claims to be: a very tiny
drop in the great screaming
bucket of American media opin-
ion. Take it as you will
Mark Brett

I just can't think of anything
to bitch about today.
Well, okay, that's not techni-
cally true. I could bitch and moan
about the unbelievable short-
sightedness of the various enter-
tainment industry award shows (but
I did that last yean and besides,
they're all a couple of weeks off
anyway).
I could complain about our
national preoccupation with sports,
and how athletic events eclipse ev-
ery other form of programming on
television (but I think I'll wait tin-
til everybody's all hyped up for the
Super Bowl).
And I've got a hum-dinger of a
drop brewing about the American
death industry (but I need to do a
little more funeral home research
first).
Ultimately, though, all that's
just an excuse. Even if the time was
right. I'm not sure I could write
those columns for this week. The
fact of the matter is, I just don't
feel like being vitriolic today. No,
right about now I'm just too
happy.
Don't look so shocked; it's not
an alien emotion to me. Of course,
considering the crotchety nature of
"A Drop in the Bucket I wouldn't
be surprised if some readers
thought I was some kind of wild-
eyed, paranoiac hermit The kind
of guy who doesn't bathe very fre-
quently, and who's rushing head-
long to meet a destiny of
homelessness or postal work.
But I don't really foam at the
mouth (not often, anyway), and I'm
up to two baths a week. Really!
Despite the fact that all I ever
do in this space is whine and com-
plain abUt stuff, I'm not an un-
happy person. I've got plenty to be
happy about
I have a strong relationship
with someone I love quite a bit I
have lots of friends, several of them
the kind of close friends that even
a cold, unfeeling bastard like my-
self will want to keep in touch with
once we all leave the Emerald City.
I'm one of the few people I
know whose parents aren't di-
vorced. When I hear about the
messed up childhoods some of my
friends had, I think back to my own
kiddie days, when my biggest prob-
lem was getting Mom to cook njg a
hot dog to eat while I watched
"Scooby Doo and count my bless-
ings.
I even have things to be happy
about beyond the personal realm.
As screwed up as America's govern-
mental system is, as much as I hate
the crap politicians dish out from
the campus level all the way up to
the president's office, it could be
worse. We could be living under a

though the album lacks that certain
spunk that places an artist over the
top. it produces a strong vibe and
various texture that stretches out
more musically than vocally. That is
the part that most upset me. His
voice doesn't live up to his heavier
grooves, whereas in the first song.
"Century his voice is a perfect
match. Although th? album catches
a broad range of styles, some people
like to listen to one particular style.
They will not find that on this
record.
When listening to this album, be
sure not to have your mind made up
before the music has been played. It
seems sacrilegious due to the title,
but don't judge a book by its cover.
Although Marc Stowe has not yet
been critically acclaimed, a title such
as this one is sure to catch the eye
of the media. The only question is
how the people will see him. Will they
see him as an artist who is true to
himself or some premadonna who
i : ?
BOYS
?? ;i
just wants the headlines?
With Mitch Mills, brother of
Mike Mills, playing bass on this
record, it is not too hard to see that
Stowe knows a few names on the in-
side. I guess it's like they say. 'It's
not what you know it's who you
know
Stowe's style varies from the
present day roots level to the depths
of Al Jourgenson's sonic guitar style
that can be heard on the third track.
"You Won't Know A Thing Driven
hard by acoustic melodies, the album,
if released on a major label, should
do well.
I can really see some talent and
a future in the music business for the
Stowes. I truly believe that if you. as
an artist, stay true to the music that
you love to do, it will all work out in
the end. You just can't give up. Judg-
ing by how quickly Marc got a band
together and recorded his own record
after the end of his first band, it looks
like giving up is out of the question.

on guitar, and Michael Diamond
(Mike I).) on drums. But unlike the
jazzy, funky instrumental that have
been the focus of most of their mu-
sical output on those previous re-
leases. Aglio E Olio is hard, fast and
in your face.
The Beasties have included a
number of hardcore tracks on their
last couple of albums such as
"Tough Guy" and "Heart Attack
Man" on Communication, or
"Time For Livin " on Check Your
Head. And just as those tracks have
shown an improvement over the
punk of Some Old Bullshit, the over-
all quality of instrumentation and
arrangement on Aglio E Olio proves
to be the best hardcore the Beasties
have yet produced. It is obvious to
any Beasties fan that these guys
have been working on all aspects of
their musicianship, from their play-
ing to their singing.
Adrock has improved more than
anyone, though. Back on the Check
Your Head tour, he could be seen
just playing the same guitar riff over

minor characters, such
? s French friends and her
chauffeur father, leave a lasting impres
sion thanks to fine performances. But
the focus is on the love triangle, and
therefore the film's weight is placed on
Ormond. Kinnear and Ford.
Ormond's Sabrina is a wonder as
she transforms from a geeky school girl
to a modern-day Cinderella. While sla-
ts still playing a love object for the men.
this role otters more for Ormond than
her previous roles m Legends of the Eall
or First Knight Here. Ormond is not
simply a pretty face hut also a presence
that is continually felt even when not
on screen.
Similarly. Greg Kinnear proves that
he can do more than just talk soup.
Kinnear's I lavid is unlikable and lovable
all at once as he convincingly presents
us with a character who is not exa tk
sure what it is he wants out of life.
Kinnear pn wes he can hold his own with
a veteran cast, especially when one ac-
knowledges that this is his first feature
film.
The selling point of the film (tor
me. at least) is Mr. Ford himself. After
focusing his energies on three action
films in a row. it is a relief to watch F? ird
stretch his acting muscles in a different
genre once again. While some may gripe
about Ford's droll performance, the stiff
persona he layers Linus with is not only
suitable hut also hilarious. Don't expect
an over-the-top Jim Carrey kind of hu-
mor here. Ford has built his acting repu-
tation on subtlety and this

TV
from page 6
I can understand this and don't
slight AMC for it Ted Turner pretty
much owns the world, thus making
it difficult to latch on to some good
movies he doesn't already have
locked away. But I shouldn't be slan-
derous to Mr. Turner, since it is his
megalomaniacal vices that bring us
such entertainment goodies as The
Maltese Falcon, unedited, with no
commercials, and letterboxed! Allow
me to pause while I wipe the saliva
from my chin. There, better.
Original movie trailers can also
be seen between films, which are usu-
ally a hoot Also, TCM is showing re-
ally old films made before the instal-
lation of the Hayes Code (the ratings
system that preceded the letter codes
we use now) that show a little of
Hollywood's ugly side. Unpolished,
racy and usually racist, these films
nevertheless deserve to be viewed
and learned from, and Turner is giv-
ing them a shot
The only downside to TCM is
that there is no movie listing for the
month in your friend, the cable
guide. Day-by-day listings, yes, but
the monthly guide, like all of the
other movie networks, would be su-
per. That way I can catch the amaz-
ing My Favorite Year uncut and
letterboxed again. On to VH-1.
Why Video Hits One (VH-1), you
might ask, when we already have
MTV? Well, when does MTV show vid-
eos anymore? Every time I turn it on,
it's "The Real World: Cleveland
"Singled Out" or something else an-
noying (I'm not counting MTV's ani-
mated programming - that's mostly
good). That is what VH-1 is for. VH-1
has a fashion show and a movie show
and that's it All other programming
is music-related. Also, if you'd like to
catch a video made before 30 seconds
ago, VH-1 is the place to be. Hell,
they're showing "The Best of Ameri-
can Bandstand" right now, and that
alone is worth the cost of admission.
Downside? VH-1 is still the home
of Michael Bolton and Kenny G? the
Barry Manilows of their time. Ugh!
Cringe!
Comedy Central (COM)! Yay!
Now I can watch "Mystery Science
Theater 3000 Ah, well, it's been
canceled by the network. This is the
last season of new episodes. Oh, too
bad.
Urn, well, I can still watch "Kids
in the Hall" and "Monty Python
Wait They alternate those. They're
showing "Benny Hill now. Ugh!
Urn, "Politically Incorrect with
Bill Mahr?" Another network is try-
ing to lure Mahr away with much
money and his own talk show.
Well, hell, what does COM have?
That really funny sketch comedy
show, "Exit 57?" Sure, when you can
find it
My point here? Some really good
shows, somewhere lost in a sea of
monotonous one-note stand-up comic
specials.
The Food Channel (FOOD). Let
me just open the cable guide to a
random page and read you a list of
Food Channel programming. "Food
News & Views "How to Boil Water
"Tamales This reads like a bizarre
joke! You tune into HBO because yon
like to watch movies. You tune into
The Food Channel because you like
to watch food?
That's right this thing is food,
24-7! Oh, come on! This one's best
left like the Fitness Channel: pro-
gramming that seeps into a regular
cable channel for two or so hours at
a time. At least QVC has some sort
of twisted entertainment value to
insomniacs, drug users and aspiring
TV whores.
Last but not least, I give you the
Cartoon Network (TOON), the true
gem in this crown of semi-precious
stones and paste. Parents everywhere!
Your children now have something to
watch any time of the day!
Students! Rejoice in your favor-
ite shows from childhood! Remember
"Space Ghost?" Not only can you see
his original cartoons, but also the al-
most-too-funny-to-be-legal "Space
Ghost Coast-toCoast the big guy's
own talk show on Friday and Satur-
day nights (worthy of its own review,
soon). Not to mention new cartoons,
some of which are really, really funny.
If any of you get a chance to see a
"Power Puff Girls" cartoon, or any-
thing involving Dexter, the kid scien-
tist stop what you're doing (unless
it's CPR on someone) and watch,
watch, watch!
And there you have it - my picks
for entertaining viewing. All of these
were ?ood choices for the cable gods,
with the one exception.
Why the Food Channel? What
about the fx channel? That would be
an amazing replacement for that Food
thing. Where else can you watch Rob-
ert Urich in "Vega$" on Saturday
nights? Ah, TV Whore paradise!
And Comedy Central is just dig-
ging their own grave. If they don't
watch out, they'll have to lie in it
On a scale of one to 10, TCM
rates a nine, COM a seven, VH-1 an
eight FOOD a two, and TOON a big

ham-fisted dictatorship, where even
things as innocuous as "A Drop in the
Bucket" or the TEC comics page
would be treasonous.
And as stupid as the entertain-
ment industry seems determined to
think the public is, there's still some
stuff out there that makes me smile.
The fact that "The Simpsons" is still
on the air, for example, brings me joy.
The fact that its ratings are still high,
and that it's apparently being enjoyed
by many of the people it satirizes on
a weekly basis, also gives me a vicious
giggle.
Similarly, I love the fact that the
children of America have the oppor-
tunity to experience the sublime mad-
ness of "The Tick Children's televi-
sion has gotten a lot smarter than
when I was a kid.
But television as a whole is
smarter. TV dramas like "ER" and
"Homicide" are breaking new ground
all the time, and television has finally
given the world a good sci-fi series in
"The X-Files Much as 1 complain
about the insipid likes of "Family
Matters" (that lousy Erkle show), it's
swiftly becoming a rarity.
Likewise, while I bitch endlessly
(and at length) about the current state
of rock, it's still better than it was at
the end of the '80s. Much as I may
hate Hootie and the Blowfish, I'd still
rather listen to them than Tiffany or
Poison.
The problem, I think, is that stuff
still isn't as good as it could be. So
when 1 see something that could be
better, I get all pissy. But not today.
The weather's nice, I've got a funky
crazy punkstomp groove in the CD
player, and everything's right with the
world. Aahhh.

2. Keep your blinds or draperies closed, except
when the sun is directly shining through your win-

3. Avoid placing warm dishes into your refrigerator

cooled to room temperature. (Make sure you
refrigrate the food within two hours after cooking.)

Thrilling victory for
men's basketball
Amanda Ross
Sports Editor
The race for the number one spot
in the CAA couldn't be more interest-
ing After ECU's thrilling victory over
VCU, the Pirates are quickly moving
toward the top.
VCU came into the game in first
place with a 3-0 record in the CAA,
while ECU had a 1-1 record. However,
those records changed after ECU
downed VCU 73-72 in one of the most
exciting games of the year.
The Pirates started off the first
half poorly, shooting only .407 com-
pared to VCU's .682. Sloppy passes and
bad shot selections hurt ECU in the
first half. Coach Joe Dooley was vis-
ibly upset with the way his players were
playing in the beginning, but eventu-
ally the Pirates began to settle down
and make better shots.
"There were several times we
could have lost our poise Dooley said.
"It never seemed like we could get over
the hump
VCU proved to be tough down low.
They were not allowing ECU to get
inside and get points in the paint
Jonathan Kerner, ECU's 6-11 forward,
got only six points in the first half.
ECU was sparked by Tim Basham
and his three consecutive three point-
ers in a row. It was 20-21 after a three
point shot by Basham in which he was
fouled. He did not make the free throw
but on the next trip down Basham
nailed another three. But he wasn't
finished yet Basham hit another three
and put the Pirates ahead 26-23. VCU
Head Coach Sonny Smith called a time-
out seeing that his players were strug-
gling to stop Basham's threes.
"I came out and
?I was really jumpy
and excited about
the game and coach
told me to settle
down and then
when 1 came back in
made the threes
Basham said.
ECU headed
-into the locker room
"Tlown by just one
?point 38-39. Tony
.Parham and
Basham led the scor-
ing with 12 and 11
i points respectively.
The second half
would prove to be all
ECU. Many players
who were virtually
silent in the first half
came out in the sec-
ond half and made
some key shots.
However, the
Rams did not make
it easy for the Pi-
rates. Bernard
Hopkins, a 6-7, 240
pound forward for
VCU, gave the Pi-
rates a lot of prob-
lems for ECU.
Hopkins contrib-
uted 10 points in the
first half, but added
another 14 in the
second half. He was
virtually unstoppable in the second
half. Hopkins leads the league in re-
bounding (10.6 rpg).
But ECU's answer to Hopkins was
Kerner. Kerner exploded in the second
half for 13 points and added another

19 points and eight rebounds. After
being shut down in the first half in the
paint Kerner came back and got the

Camby in good health
UMass star leaves
hospital after pre-
game collapse
(AP)-Marcus Camby, the star of
Massachusetts' top-ranked basketball
team, said he felt "100 percent" yes-
terday as he left a hospital, about 24
hours after collapsing and losing con-
sciousness.
"I'm fine, I feel great Camby
said upon leaving Olean General Hos-
pital to fly back to Massachusetts.
"I'm anxious to get back on the
court"
UMass coach John Calipari said
doctors told him Camby's life never
was in danger. That, he said, "was
like winning the Final Four
After a brief visit with Camby's
doctors yesterday, Calipari said a
heart problem had been ruled out in
the player's collapse. Camby had
been taking cough medicine to fight
an illness and felt light-headed before
collapsing, Calipari said.
Camby collapsed in a hallway
outside the locker room shortly be-
fore Massachusetts' 65-52 victory
over St Bonaventure Sunday.
His teammates woke up yester-
day knowing no game could top the
scare they received. An undefeated
season and national championship
vanished from their minds.
"An incident like this puts things
into the perspective they should be
?i
?in Calipari said. "Basketball is not
?life or death
The 6-foot-11 junior collapsed
shortly after pregame warmups and
was taken by ambulance to Olean
'General. Camby's heart never
stopped beating and he never
stopped breathing.
UMass overcame the loss of one
of the country's
? premier players in
?time to extend its
undefeated streak
to 14 games. The
game was a blur
for most players
who gathered for a
quick prayer for
- Camby before tak-
ing the floor.
Tears rolled "??"???????
down their faces as they prepared to
r play after watching their teammate
? whisked off to a hospital.
"Just about everybody was cry-
ing Carmelo Travieso said. "You
: don't want anything to happen to
- anybody, but when someone goes to
the hospital, you know it's serious
Camby was accompanied to the
hospital by Calipari, who stayed over-
night in a nearby hotel. The 21-year-
old Camby underwent more tests yes-
terday before being released.
Inus Norville replaced Camby in
the starting lineup against the
Bonnies. Assistant James "Bruiser"
Flint took over the team for Calipari.
"We just said, 'Let's win this for
I'm fine, I feel
great. I'm anxious
to get back on the
court
? Marcus Camby
the big guy " Flint said. "We did
what we usually do to win
What UMass did was build an
early lead and keep its concentration
as much as possible on basketball.
The Minutemen scored the first 4
points of the game and never were
threatened by St. Bonaventure,
which took UMass into double-over-
time last year.
Although
Norville re-
placed Camby at
center for the
tip-off, reserve
Tyrone Weeks
saw most of the
action and
scored 15 points
and had a sea-
son-high 12 re-
bounds.
Trailing 36-27 at halftime, St
Bonaventure (5-7) missed its first 13
shots in the second half. The Bonnies
finished with a 28.3 field goal per-
centage and never drew within nine
points after intermission.
"I'm sure that their players felt
like they each had to step up a little
more St. Bonaventure coach Jim
Baron said. "I thought they did that.
Their guys off the bench - Weeks and
Norville - did a nice job inside, then
their perimeter guys stepped up and
made some big plays
The Minutemen came in threes

"Super HoV lose tourney
David Gasklns
Ae. Service
During the semester break, two
contingents of ECU students trav-
elled to New Orleans, La. to partici-
pate in the 17th Annual National In-
vitational Flag Football Champion-
ships.
The ECU regular season flag
football champion, "Super Ho's
made the trip for the fourth time in
the last five years to represent the
school among the 173 teams from
across the country and Mexico.
Teams were divided into four
separate divisions for competition:
Men's collegiate, Women's collegiate.
Co-Rec collegiate and Men's Open.
In addition to the "Super Ho's six
ECU intramural sports officials were
invited to work the tourney.
"The Super Ho's romped
through the pool play phase of the
tourney by defeating the Community
College of Rhode Island 58-0 and
McNeese State 1-0 (forfeit). This
earned them a first place seed from
their pool into the 64 team play-off
bracket
In their opening play-off contest
Daniel Finn's passing fueled the of-
fense in a 19-0 victory over Palm
Beach Atlantic College. However, in
the second contest, Austin Peay's
"Sandlot Boys" proved to be a
tougher challenge. After falling be-
hind 6-0 early in the first half, Peay
embarked on another drive and ap-
peared set to score again when Geouf
Anderson made a leaping intercep-
tion at the goaling and started an
80-yard run back which included four
pitches and culminated with Chris
Pressley going the last 40 yards to
knot the score.
Following a Finn to Jerrod
Jenkins touchdown pass, ECU ap-
peared to take control leading 13-6.
However, the "Sandlot Boys" re-
gained their composure and scored
the last two touchdowns to escape
with a narrow 19-13 win. Pressley
was outstanding in the loss register-
ing an amazing seven quarterback
sacks from his defensive rusher po-
sition.
Members of the "Super Ho's
in addition to those mentioned above
included Bud McAdams, Anthony
Gelardi, David Campbell, Matt
Snyder, Derrick Harris, Matt Joyner
and Rodney Young. . ??

ney ended a highly successful season
which included a championship in

The Lady Pirate basketball team was on the road
this weekend for two CAA games. ECU first headed to
George Mason and then onto American.
Friday's game against GMU's Lady Patriots, in
Fairfax, Va. proved to be a big disappointment for the
Lady Pirates. ECU shot only .308 in the first half and
was 0-3 in three point attempts. They did reach above
the .500 mark with free throws shooting .556 which was
better than GMU who only shot .375 from the line.
The Lady Patriots took a commanding 36-21 lead at
half-time.
ECU's field goal percentage went up slightly in the
second half to .400 but it wasn't enough to overcome the
play of GMU. ECU lost the battle 73-60 and dropped their
conference record to 1-2.
Leading scorers for the night were Tomekia
Blackmon with 16 points, Justine Allpress with 10 and
Tracey Kelley with nine.
The Lady Pirates then traveled to Washington, D.C.
to take on the Lady Eagles of American University. Try-
ing to rebound from Friday's loss to GMU, ECU attempted :
to avenge the loss, but they still came up short 78-52.
ECU shot better in the first half than in Friday's;
game. The Lady Pirates shct .385 in the first half andi
shot an impressive .857 from the free throw line. How-
ever, ECU still trailed at half-time 35-26.
American outscored ECU in the second half 26-43
in the Lady Pirate's third conference loss of the season. P
The Pirates were plagued by 26 turnovers and commit-
ted 25 personal fouls.
Danielle Charelsworth led the scoring drive withL
15 points, Allpress added 12 and Blackmon chipped ini
nine for the night
The Lady Pirates (5-7, 1-3 CAA) will prepare this:
week for their next game against nationally ranked Old
Dominion. The Monarchs will come to Greenville this:
Friday night Tip off is set for 7 p.m. in Minges Coli-
seum.
SID-ECU senior middle hitter
Tara Venn has been ranked 11th
in individual blocking (1.58 total
blocks per game) in the final NCAA
volleyball statistics.She also ranked
first in the final CAA standings.
"Prior to the season we moved
Tara to the middle because of her
quickness and jumping ability, said
ECU Head Volleyball Coach Kim
Walker. "She neutralizes many of the
opposing middle hitters, even when
at 5-11 she might be giving up two or
three inches. She's done a good job
ECU's 19 win campaign in 1995
marked the squad's highest win total
since 1982 and their 19-18 overall
record was their first winning sea-
son since 1989.
"It's great to finally have a
winning season Venn said. "We
seniors can hold our heads high
and be proud of our record and
what we have accomplished.
Cowboys, Steelers to play in Super Bowl
Only one franchise has won five
Super Bowls. Another will equal that
feat on Jan. 28 at Tempe, Ariz.
The Dallas Cowboys are 11
12-point favorites to do it and extend
the NFC's winning string to an incred-
ible 12 in the big game. The AFC
champion Pittsburgh Steelers beat
Dallas twice in Super Bowls in going
4-0 in the 1970s and 1980.
Here we go again.
"This is what you play the game
for Steelers safety Darren Perry said,
"The excitement it's almost as if it's
not really happening
It's happening, Darren, for the
Steelers, who defeated Indianapolis
20-16 Sunday. And for the Cowboys,
38-27 victors over Green Bay.
"We are happy to get there, de-
spite the negativity we've endured this
year Cowboys cornerback Deion
Sanders said. "This team is good, re-
ally good, and the way we stuck to-
gether is a credit to each of us
Dallas will appear in a record
eighth Super Bowl. It won in 1992
and '93, then last year saw the San
Francisco 49ers reach that fifth su-
per victory first.
It will be the Super Bowl debut
for Barry Switzer, who replaced Jimmy
Johnson last season after Johnson and
team owner Jerry Jones feuded and
split
Switzer won three college foot-
ball championships at Oklahoma. The
NFC title certainly helped vindicate
Switzer. who often is maligned for his
laid-back approach and offbeat deci-
sions.
"I've never been to the big one
he said. "They tell me it's a lot of fun
Switzer brings with him the
league's most balanced attack, with
stars Troy Aikman throwing, Emmitt
Smith running, Michael Irvin catch-
ing and a supertfteipporting cast con-
tributing whatever is needed. Smith
rushed for 150 yards and scored three
TDs against Green Bay. Irvin had
seven catches for 100 yards and two
touchdowns.
Pittsburgh, the AFC's highest-
scoring team, should move the ball.
But can it keep up with the Cowboys'
high-octane offense?

to visit Camby in the hospital shortly
after the game, appearing much
more upbeat when walking out of
the emergency room doors than
when they entered. They were in-
structed not to talk to reporters af-
ter leaving the hospital.
Camby, who was taking over-
the-counter medication for a mild
chest cough, is averaging 20.9
points and 7.5 rebounds. He has
been touted as a potential NBA lot-
tery pick when he decides to turn
professional.
"With Marcus right now, I think
our team knows their well-being is
more important than any game

Two years ago, UMass guard
Michael Williams collapsed during
a game at Cincinnati. Tests revealed
no cardiac problems and he was
cleared to play two weeks later.
And last week. UMass swimmer
Greg Menton had an apparent heart
attack and died during a meet at
Dartmouth College. He had just fin-
ished two events.
It's been a little mind-bog-
gling school spokesman Bill
Strickland said. "It's been a rough
week. To have Marcus go down, a
lot of things go through your mind
and not a lot of pleasant things
Super Bowl offered redemption from
last year, when they fell 3 yards short
against San Diego.
"I've been in the league 11 years
and I've come up short every year but

But AFC teams don't win the
Super Bowl. The last time it happened
was 1984. when the Raiders beat
Washington.
Can the Steelers break that
record schneid?
Not if they play as they did
against Indianapolis. The offense,

their victorious run on campus.
Among ECU'S 30 flag football
officials were five who received the
opportunity to work the tourney. The
national event brought together 110
officials from across the nation rep-
resenting 47 institutions.
These individuals were selected
for outstanding performance either
on their campus or from a regional
tournament. Top honors from the
ECU officials were taken by Russell
Duvall and George Hollen who were
recognized as All-Americans designat-
ing their selection as being among
the best 20 officials in the tourney.
Hollen was also chosen to officiate
the Women's championship game
while Duvall worked the Open divi-
sion, generally considered the high-
est level of play, on the last day.
Each of them also received the
opportunity to work an exhibition
game on the floor of the Superdome
prior to the Sugar Bowl game on
New Year's eve. Other officials work-
ing the event included Steven
Roberson, Greg Laurie (the first
freshman ever selected from ECU)
and Chris Nunn.
In addition. Allison Kemp served
as an administrative assistant with the
officials for the tourney. Each of these
six officials had previously worked a
regional tournament in November,
either in North Carolina or Georgia.
The selection of Duvall and
Hollen as All-Americans represented
the sixth and seventh officials to re-
ceive this honor since 1989. Also
among this group is Brian Weingartz,
who did not make the trip this year
but continues to officiate at ECU.
Congratulations to all who partici-
pated in this year's event!

shots in the lane that was needed to
keep ECU in the game.
"You can't even describe the way
he (Kerner) played the second half
Parham said. "The second half we
wanted to emphasize getting the ball
inside and when Jonathan got the ball
he just went to work
"I thought I could step it up in
the second half Kerner said. "We
knew we had weight and height to bang
it down low with them and I think we
did a pretty good of that"
All through the second half ECU
kept gaining momentum, while the
Rams slowly began to fall apart, but
the game still remained close.
After a Meadows' steal and jumper
VCU's lead was cut to 6S-69 with 2:30
remaining in the game.
There were 19 lead changes dur-
ing the game, but the most important
lead would be had by ECU after a
Kerner field goal with 2:10 left That
shot would give ECU the lead for good.
Eleven times during the game the score
was tied, but ECU stayed in the game
and Dooley was proud of his players
for hanging in there.
"They kept making big baskets
Dooley stated. "You know we're down
one, we cut it to one, finally they get a
three-point play and get the lead back
to four. Instead of panicking we kept
getting our offensive poise back and
kept executing
The Pirates biggest lead in the last
few minutes of play came off a Kerner
free throw with 1:18 left and a pair of
Deron Rippey free throws with 34.6
seconds left The lead now was 7369.
The Rams answered with a Patrick
Lee three pointer with 25.1 seconds
left Smith then used his final time out
"We had called a set play for three,
knowing we wouldn't have time for two
possessions Smith said. "And then we
end up getting a three wide open with
nobody under the basket and Patrick
takes it"
After the time-out the ECU play-
ers and fans got a scare after Basham
tried to throw a full court pass down
to Meadows and turned it over to VCU.
Lee came down again and fired up
another three but came up emptied
handed.
ECU won the battle 73-72, and
Dooley knew his players weren't go-
ing to back down even in the final
moments.
"That's something we've ad-
dressed in practice, take on people and
that's what we try to do Dooley said.
Basham ended the night with 14
points, while Parham added 12 and
Meadows contributed nine points.
"This is a very big win because
we will start to gain respect because
people still have doubts about us and
it gives us a lot of confidence that we
can play with anybody Meadows said.
ECU shot .481 for the game in
field goals while VCU show 587. The
Pirates did take the edge on free throw
shots shooting 16-22 for .727, while
VCU shot 14-27 for .519.
VCU is now tied with UNC-W for
first place both with a 3-1 record. ECU
is tied with American and Old Domin-
ion for second place all with 2-1
records.
ECU will be on the road tonight
against American in what will prove to
be a key match up to move ahead in
the standings. Tip off is set for 7:30 in
Bender Arena in Washington, D.C.
