To many students at ECU the an- swer seems to be no. Textbooks aren't worth the stress and frustration that paying for them causes at the start of each semester. On top of all of the other tuition and fees, paying for textbooks can be an added burden that can leave many college students financially de- pleted. This leaves many students asking the question, can this class be taught without a textbook? Do professors un- load many unnecessary books and supplements on to an already broke college student? After a survey of -�����- several ECU stu- dents reactions seemed to be mixed Amanda MacCreary, a se- nior social work major said, "No, I definitely don't get my money's worth. A lot of the time you don't need the entire textbook for a class, it is mainly used to supple- ment the lecture �������������i She also said as she may be able to pass a class without the textbook, she defi- nitely wouldn't receive an A in the class. Many students seemed to share this "Although textbooks may be slightly overpriced, they are essential in the understanding of some of my classes � Jonathon Cummings, biology major belief. Out of the 20 students surveyed by TEC, 70 percent said they felt their text books were -���-�-��-� overpriced. Many agreed that al- though textbooks can help in the un- derstanding of pro- fessors' lectures, they are still not worth the money that was paid for them. Thirty per- cent felt that text- books are essen- tial for the under- standing of the class and for fu- ������MHaaw ture reference, and worth the money that is paid for them.

On Wed Sept. 25, the Advisory Budget Commission stopped at ECU as part of a three-day tour through eastern North Carolina. This committee is responsible for composing the states budget for the next two years. Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs Robert Brown said university offi- cials have put in a request for $62 million for repairs and renovations to existing state funded campus buildings. Brown said this money would go toward repairing air conditioning sys- tems, electrical problems, brick work, roofing and the steam plants. "The university is currently receiving $4 million to $5 million a year for repairs and renovations Brown said. The Advisory Budget Commission's tour gave university officials the chance not only to show the committee where tax payers' money had gone in the past, but what money is needed for future improvements to the uni- versity. "In years past the University would show the committee old Joyner Library in order to plead our case with them Chancellor Richard Eakin said. This year, university officials were able to take the Advisory Budget Commission to the on going $30 million expansion to Joyner Library, so See BUDGET page 4 Parking During Fall Break October 17-18, 1996 The following information pertains to perking on campus during Fail Break, October 17 -18,19: Freshmen parking permits will be honored on campus in ftadsst park- ing areas (not in Staff or Private) beginning Wednesday, October 16,1996 at 4:00 p.m. The earlier time for Freshmen permits is to provide the oppor- tunity for individuals to park and load their vehicles. 30-Mhrate ftajfaf Pmitttf will be available to Freshmen who must park prior to the 4:00 pjn. time on October 16,1996.

Fifty percent of viewers thought Clinton won and 29 percent called Bob Dole the winner, an ABC News poll found. Nineteen percent called it a tie. Who won? Clinton 50 Dole 29 tie 19 As is usual in a presidential de- bate, not many minds were changed. Clinton went from an 11-point lead among debate watchers befo�&and to a 14-point lead among th� same people after the debate.

Among viewers who sup- ported Clinton before the debate, 82 percent thought he won it, and 95 percent still supported him after it Among viewers who supported Dole before the debate, 63 percent thought he won it, and 94 percent still supported him after it LAST TIME: The first debate in the 1992 presidential election was unusual because it did have an im- mediate impact on presidential pref- erence, more than doubling support for Perot, from six to 14 percent.

Pories to deliver commencement address Brings host of achievements to podium Angela Koenlg StBff Writer Dr, Walter J. Pories has recently been named as the speaker for the 1996 fall commencement by Chancellor Ri- chard Eakin. "He (Dr. Pories) recently retired from the chairmanship of the depart- ment of surgery and I thought it an ap- propriate time to recognize him for his accomplishments Eakin said. Pories is the founding chairman of the department at ECU's School of Medicine which he began 19 years ago. He retired from this position in July so that he could have more time to work on research and to help with the intro- duction of managed medical care in east- em NC. He also acts as director of the sur- gical residency program. This program has become nationally known while un- der his guidance. He wrote the curriculum for the department of surgery's program at ECU as well as for programs across the nation. He is also the author of scien- tific books and articles. "Dr. Pories not only has been a major influence on the School of Medi- cine but also very important to the uni- versity at large said Dr. Randolph Chitwood, chairman of the department of surgery. "He is responsible for devel- oping the aca- demic depart- ment of surgery in the School of Medicine, but more than that he has brought a spirit of scholar- ship, creativity and service to the university at large. Pories brings humanism and compassion to clinical care, and that is what he believes in. Pories is in fact nationally known for these �"��"����"��iP qualities. "He is one of the reasons I chose to come to this program. He is vercom- passionate. He takes pride in knowing about the personal lives and professional lives of residents. He is concerned with their families as well as how many sur- geries they perform Dr. David Rock, chief resident of the department of sur- gery, said. "Dr. Pories not only has been a major influence on the School of Medicine but also very important to the university at large � Dr. Randolph Chitwood, chairman of the department of surgery "He prides himself of the fact that none of his residents have gotten di- vorced. Some residency programs boast that their own high divorce rates mean their residents work harder Rock said. Pories will continue to be a faculty ��� member at the School of Medicine although he has retired from his chairmanship. In addi- tion to his work at the School of Medicine, he is a painter of wa- tercolors. "He is about as dose as you can come to a renaissance man and by that I mean that he is a very ac- complished man in many ways. Not only is he an accomplished surgeon, but he is also an accomplished art- ist as well Eakin '�"�� � said. Pories will address more than 2,000 graduates and relatives at the com- mencement ceremony on Dec 7. He has spoken at several medical school gradu- ation ceremonies previously and is one of students' favorite lecturers inside the classroom. "They (students) know he's not just there out of obligation, but because he wants to be there Rock said.

The St Petersburg debate will now pit Bob Dole's running mate Jack Kemp against Vice President Al Gore. Ross Perot's running mate Pat Choate won't participate since the duo was shut out pf the debates last week. Last year, the Commission on Presidential Debates, the nonparti- san group that sponsors debates, recommended St Pertersburg as the site for the second presidential debate and Hartford for the vice presi- dential debate. But, those plans were turned upside down when the two campaigns began hashing out details. The candidates have final say on when and where the debates are held. Burglary ends in flood at The University of Mousouri - Columbia The MU Fine Arts building sustained substantial damage after van- dals flooded most of the first floor Sunday morning, said Melvin Platt director of the music department m Four to five inches of water collected on the floor of the main practice hall as vandals broke into the building and turned on faucets in the two first floor bathrooms. Vandals also put hand towels in the toilet and over the top of the drain to prevent it from pouring down the drain. The main hall stage overturned with three-fourths of it covered in water. Platt said at least two people were responsible for the damage. North Carolina Central University rallies to promote voter empowerment National, state and local politicians joined N.C.

Civil War comes to life at ECU Food collection at Thursday's football game Each person that will be attending this Thursday's nationally tele- vised ECU-Southern Mississippi Football game is being asked to bring at least one non-perishable food item to the game. Special food boxes will be set up at each entrance fo the stadium and fans are being requested to drop food in those boxes. The food will be distributed to needy families in Eastern North Carolina that have been devastated due to Hurricane Fran and Hurricane Bertha. This is a special project of the East Carolina University Athletic Department in cooperation with the United Methodist Church's hurri- cane relief agencies. The support of theentire student body would be greatly appreciated. Symposium focuses on NC's role in history Christina Anderson Contributing Writer ECU will host the first Civil War Symposium, on Oct. 11-13. The sym- posium will focus attention on North Carolina's role in the Civil War. According to Dr. David E. Long, an assistant professor in the history department, North Carolina's role "has traditionally been given second class citizenship The symposium will include pre- sentations from Civil War historians and writers. The guest speakers are people who have made a major splash in contemporary Civil War scholarship, Long said. "It's a prestigious group of people Long said. "I'm excited about it The list of speakers include: Mark Grimsley of Ohio State. Clyde Wilson of the University of South Carolina and Chris Fonvielle of Wilmington and a graduate of ECU. Not only will the symposium in- clude speakers, but participants will also visit some local historical sites. On Friday, Oct. 11, participants will tour the Grimesland Plantation, home of Confederate General Bryan Grimes. A "pig-pickin" will be held after the tour and a panel of gradu- ate students headed by retired ECU professor, Dr. William Still, will dis- cuss the Confederate blockade. A banquet will be held on Oct. 12, along with a roundtable discus- sion of all the speakers at the sym- posium. On Sun- day, Oct. 13, Mark L.

This is not the 16th century, when Christian leaders would condemn Copernicus and later Galileo for teach- ing that the Earth was not the center of the universe. Today, scientific advances - includ- ing the idea that a potato-sized meteor- ite which blasted off Mars 15 million years ago contains several physical and chemi- cal traces suggestive of life - are more likely to be greeted as evidence of the unlimited power of God. religious lead- ers say. "We believe a God who is capable of creating one world is capable of creat- ing many worlds said Rabbi Alexander Schindler, former head of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. "It does not change our fundamental faith. It doesn't touch it in the slightest" While the NASA results are prelimi- nary - and even then they are only talk- exican Restaurant 7 ing about tiny, nearly 4 billion-year-old microbes - they are tantalizing. Promi- nent religious thinkers are not immune from the same flights of imagination about extraterrestrial life that have gripped so many others for so long. David Byers, executive director of the Committee on Science and Human Values of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, said he has been think- ing about it since he was a boy. "I remember, when I was about 10 or 12, thinking if I ever ran into an alien, my first question would be: 'Who's Jesus and see what they said Byers recalled. Rabbi James Rudin of the Ameri- can Jewish Committee said the recent discovery calls for "a little galactic mod- esty on the part of not only the scientific community, but also the religious com- munity. How do we know that we are the only form of life?" Few of the theologians interviewed doubt that if beings with the ability to think existed on other planets, GoJ would have relationships with them. "Whatever is there is God's cre- ation said the Rev. Robert Russell, a physicist and United Church of Christ minister who founded the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences in Berkeley, Calif. "I would imagine God would be as interested in being in com- munication, in relation with that form of life as God is with Earth, with terrestrial beings The other side of the issue is how should human beings react to free, self- conscious moral agents from another planet "Our religious understanding would impel us to reach out to them in friend- ship because they are fellow creatures of God created in his image Schindler said.

In Alaska, officials are struggling to reconcile the law's pre- cise definition of the "work" required of welfare recipients with the lifestyle of Native Americans in the remote bush, where the work of subsistence fishing and hunting is unpaid and episodic In Colorado, the problem is geogra- phy: Booming ski areas offer job oppor- tunities for welfare recipients, but the nearest affordable housing is 100 miles away. In Kentucky, leaders are getting calls form worried grocery store owners in the eastern part of the state, where the coal industry is so crippled that food stamp and welfare benefits support the local economy. As the law took effect 11 states, including Maryland, had submitted to the federal government their outlines for implementing the new policy, while oth- ers say their plans are months away and RIGGAN SHOE REPAIR Reftxtvu-ftp S6at Cm gxcentuUe fax 24 tfoviA �u� &94C - "ZfOfA IZutUUu Out Specially i& Sett & 'ZfctHZejuUx Men's and Women's shoes for sale $5 to $35.

President Clinton last night approved two of those plans, Michigan's and Wisconsin's. Wisconsin's proposal to require virtually every adult on its wel- fare rolls to hold down a job was contro- versial when first submitted, but the pas- sage of the welfare law two months ago gave states almost unlimited authority to design their own programs so long as they meet the federal law's tough new mandates. The states with completed plans will receive an annual payment from the fed- eral government effective today, and by acting quickly these states ensure they will receive the largest amount possible. The clock also starts ticking for welfare recipients ;in those states, marking the beginning of a five-year lifetime limit on benefits. Interviews with dozens of state of- ficials in recent days make it clear that the welfare measure, particularly its in- tricate mandates, is already raising unique issues in different regions of the country. And when the success of the new system begins to be evaluated a year form now, the result is likely to vary as dramatically as the economies of New York City and rural Iowa. In their effort to meet the law's first deadline - getting 25 percent of their caseloads into jobs a year from today � may states plan to stick with experimen- tal welfare reform plans they've already been testing under waivers form the fed- eral government The law allows them to continue these programs, but does not exempt them form complying with new work requirements and other tough man- dates. But in many cases, meeting the law's work requirements will mean expanding these programs or adjusting those that aren't successful. And the trick will be matching their programs to the precise language in the new law. State officials must also figure out how to track who on their welfare and food stamp rolls has worked, for how many hours and how many weeks. In SeeLAWpage4 JVLUVJKo from page 2 a lot to leam from them Byers said. He said, "If you run into a race like those folks from 'Independence Day you're not going to have much time for theological reflection That is the question that fascinates theologians: If other beings were given the same capacity for free will, would they avoid human mistakes?

Campolo sees an ominous develop- ment in the trend in films away from portraying aliens as almost Christ-like figures, such as in the movie "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial to their depictions in the current hit "Independence Day where beings from another planet try to destroy the Earth. He said it reflects a climate of fear and anxiety in the country, that extends to our attitudes toward other strangers, such as Mexican immigrants. Indulging his own imagination, Campolo said he could envision a sce- nario where God - tired of the mess human beings had created in this world -would send beings from another planet to help people learn to love one another. "We've always looked at ourselves as people sending out missionaries Campolo said.

This one is very spe- cific about where states must end up; what is doesn't specify' is how they should get there. "Even within my state, one size doesn't fit all said Robin Arnold-Will iims, Utah's director of human services. She hopes to address the unemploy- ment in rural Utah with job development programs that likely would be completely ineffective in booming Salt Lake City. 1 In Arkansas, state officials are de- i yeloping a "menu" of welfare services that dould be tailored to the have and hove- not areas of the state. RUDGET from page that they could see what the state of North Carolina had done for the uni- versity, Eakin said. After giving the committee a tour of the new library, university officials took the commission to Flanagan Hall, ECU's science and technology build- ing. "Flanagan Hall was built in 1939 and renovated in 1970 said Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and chemistry professor Carolina Ayers. Du�to budget problems during these r�novations, the emergency safety showers were constructed, but the drains were omitted, Ayers added. As a result, when the showers are in use the water leaks down to the first floor. v "Th-commission toured the fa- cility, wtifle lab was in session, so that they could see how obsolete the fa- cilities are in terms of teaching mod- ern science Eakin said. "We were able to give them a first hand report on the nature of that facility According to Eakin, the univer- sity is planning on constructing a new science and technology building, and when it is completed Flanagan Hall will turn into offices and classrooms. Dr. Diane Henshaw, director of Continuing Education, said the legislature's money has allowed the division to start a new program this fall which offers bachelor's degrees to working adults without them having to commute to ECU. The degree program is offered at Craven Community College, Carteret Community College and Havelock Middle School. "The program is in an area where educational opportunities are not widely available to adults Henshaw said. However, in order for ECU to re- ceive any funding from the Advisory Budget Commission, University offi- cials have to send a list of priority needs to the University of North Caro- lina General Assembly. They deter- mine which of the 16 University of North Carolina schools receive fund- ing for improvements and renovations to their campus.

I "Although textbooks may be slightly overpriced, they are essential in the understanding of some of my classes. In that respect, they are worth tta money I pay for them Cummings skid. "There is no way I could pass the cjass without the books). They are also important for future reference According to a recently released survey published by the Association of American Publishers, uiere seems to be an overall increase in the value in which college professors and students place on textbooks in academic work. Accord- ing to the survey, 55 percent of faculty ajid 49 percent of students regard text- books as "very important" in helping students retain information, study more efficiently, clarify concepts and provide future reference. , The study also revealed that while 75 percent of faculty feel that using text- books will improve students' grades, only 51 percent of students share this view. "Textbooks are not worth the money they pay for them if students don't read them said, Dr. Roger Rulifson, a biology professor. "A lot of times they only think of money, not the value that the textbook may bring to them in the future Rulifson added that although it may vary with each discipline, and some textbooEs are better than others, text- books can be "valuable tools especially in a student's major. "Vou better read it cover to cover, and you better hold on to it" Rulifson said, i Textbook sales have increased in the past two years - six percent last year and 10 percent the year before, according to Wanda Scarborough, the ECU Student Store manager. "Textbook sales have increased and book buy-backs have increased Scarborough told TEC. The biggest in- crease, though, is in the course packs put together by professors Some professors may be realizing that asking for students to buy an en- tire text for just a few chapters is exces- sive. This could be why more and more of these course packs are being put together to give students a more af- fordable option. ECU Student Accounting Society Meetin v When: -Wed.

State and national elections are important. Get involved, get out and vote. " Been seeing a bunch of unfamiliar faces on your television screen lately, telling you that you need them to "fix things for you and your fellow citizens?" Well, you might need to listen up. Those weird-looking guys interrupting your favor- ite talk shows and sitcoms may be running the coun- try someday (today, even), and if we, as students don't know what they stand for, we may be in a world of trouble. Tuning in to debates and political summits may not be your idea of an exciting evening at home, but the decisions these people make may have a greater impact on our lives than we think. Issues like increasing the minimum wage and a middle class tax break really matter. Even if you don't have a job or you don't pay taxes, we're sure your parents do. Think about this no extra funds at home may mean one less care-package being sent to you, and even worse, you might have to start paying your own phone bill. It's unbelievable, we know, but there actually are some students who think the only elections that di- rectly affect them are the ones that happen on cam- pus. People! Wake up and smell the politicians! State and national elections are probably the most impor- tant things in which you could ever become involved. If you're the guy with the red Chevette bearing a bumper sticker that reads "DIE, Jesse, DIE" and you've never taken the initiative to vote before, then guess what You are part of the problem, man. How do you think these people keep getting re-elected? Another excuse we've heard? "I'm only one per- son. My vote wouldn't make that much of a difference Haven't you ever heard of a 31 to 30 victory or de- feat? Not all elections are landslides, and if you and the three people you spend your time complaining to will take some action, that's four votes right there. In other words, if all you do is sit around and com- plain about the politicians, that's all there ever will be - reasons to complain. So if you want to make a move that will redeem your soul for having wasted yet an- other year without a meaning contribution, do some- thing that has impact - VOTE In the infamous words of "Outcast "You need to get up, get out, and get something (you know the rest.)

I am not here to preach. I am here to remind everybody about how pre- cious life is. I know this sounds like the typical cliche you might find in a typical article, however it is not 1 want to remind everybody about the idea of a designated driver. You know that person who gets to hang around their drunk friends and almost baby-sit them. It may seem like the worst job in the world, just think of the alternatives. If you were not there to drive your friends home, you may not have those friends. I am not saying that all accidents are caused by drunk driv- ers, what I am saying is that the ma- jority of them are. A friend of mine was driving home from a concert, sober as could be. She and her friends had the per- fect evening She had just become a sister in the sorority she had worked so hard to join. Everything seemed perfect After the concert, she and her friends were on the highway driving back to her school when she got hit I do not mean sideswiped or rear ended, I mean a head on collision. The driver of the other vehicle apparently had had way too much to drink, and hav- ing climbed into the cab of a jacked- up truck, commenced to navigate his way down the wrong side of the high- way. She did not have any time to re- act She turned the wheel of her little Honda, but it was too late. The truck plowed right into her killing one of Brian Lewis Bums Opinion Columnist her friends immediately. My friend was lucky enough to live until she arrtjed at the hospital. My friend would still be here with me if that drivers' friends who were sober had taken his keys or had called a cab for their friend. There were two sober men in the cab of that truck watching their drunk buddy at-the wheel. I was not the only persoki to lose in this situation. My friendsipar- ents will never be able to see their daughter again. Her friends will never be able to here her laugh or see her wonderful smile again. It is because of this guy ancj his buddy's that she is no longer with us. This is why it is so important for people have a designated driveTt is not too much to ask for one pfrson to remain sober for one evening, en- suring the safety of their friends. The designated driver program is , perhaps one of the best ideas that I have seen come around in a long time. My fraternity has a program like this, every weekend night two people sit at home and wait for a call from a brother or a friend who needs a ride. This goes on all semester long However you set up your pro- gram, it is important that you know who is the designated driver for that evening. This simple little step could possib'y save you from having to face the realization that you may never see your friends again. I do not recommend having to go visit your friends in a hospital or even worse as I had to do, at the cemetery. The hard truth is that when someone who has been drinking gets behind the wheel of a vehicle, they are self- ishly taking not only their life into their hands, but anyone else who hap- pens to be on the road that night Please, for your safety and that of your friends, please be responsible enough to have a designated driver available every time you are drinking. It can really make a difference and I don't want to have to read about some poor individual who could have been saved from disaster by making one phone call to a friend or a cab. It is now up to you. If you decide to go out and drink, then you have to call someone. Do not get behind that wheel and take others lives in your hands! r i i i i i a or a.

I was going through my "why do we have to read this stupid stuff all the time" phase in seventh grade. I was de- termined to hate the novel - and was quite ashamed of myself when it became one of my favorites. Since then I've read Mark Twain's masterpiece about once a year, and it is still one of my favorite books. So when I heard that the ECU Play- house would be doing Big River this year, I was pretty excited. It's getting a little difficult to read for pleasure now. with all the reading I have to do for class, and I jumped at the chance to "watch the play" to get my yearly fix of Huck Finn. I was not disappointed. I'd never seen Big River before, but I must admit that this adaptation is really true to the book All of my favorite scenes were in- cluded, and the most important lines are quoted almost directly from the original text I really liked the performance. It was highly entertaining, which 1 believe is at the root of all theatre. However, in the beginning, I had a major problem with the sound. I could barely hear Jerry Green (Jim), especially when he sang. The or- chestra was very loud, which is to be ex- pected, but I guess Green's microphone wasn't turned oa This problem was cor- rected during intermission, but I think someone should have noticed it much earlier. After all, this could have been fixed many times during the first act when Green was offstage. I also thought the casting choices were interesting. Take, for example, Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer. I might be look- ing at this from too much of a literary standpoint but in the novel Tom Saw- yer is considerably younger than Huck Finn. In this performance, Matt Stevens (Tom Sawyer) seemed older than Chad Brown (Huck Finn). This didn't detract from my enjoyment of the show by any means - both Stevens and Brown did an excellent job. But in the back of my mind that point kept popping up. There were several effects through- out the show that I found extremely suc- cessful. In the first song, "Do You Want to Go to Heaven? (which, by the way, is the one I've found myself humming most often) a beautiful picture was made by placing the chorus behind the scrim (the translucent black screen). I also thought that the lighting effect that created the forest was amazing. I felt that it was much more interesting than if they had tried to paint some trees on a backdrop. The absolute best part of this show See RIVER page 9 Finding problems is easy enough - the rub is in providing viable solu- tions.

Maybe that's wrong to say; maybe they're just joining the '90s. Either way, there's a revolution going on some- where. First Bryan Adams comes out looking like a bad slacker rip- off singing "The Only Thing That Looks Good On You (Is Me) and now John Mellencamp goes dance or so everyone wants to think. However, anyone who gives a listen to Mellencamp's new album, Mr. Happy Go Lucky, will realize that he is simply expanding on the sound he experimented with on his past couple of albums, Dance Na- ked and Human Wheels. The reason everyone immedi- ately assumes Mellencamp has gone techno is the enlistment of Junior Vasquez as his co-producer. Yes, this is the same Junior Vasquez that has frequently worked with Ma- donna. In fact, she's the one who recommended him to Mellencamp. A few years ago, Madonna sug- gested that Mellencamp let Vasquez do a dance version of his single "Love and Happiness He agreed, and though the two never met on that project, Mellencamp kept Vasquez in mind. So, the New York- based Vasquez went to Indiana for the recording, and small-town Mellencamp went to New York for the mixing. The result is the best Mellencamp record in years. While not another Scarecrow or Uh Huh, Mr. Happy Go Lucky proves just as listenable as those huge albums of the '80s. In fact, Vasquez's in- fluence is only on five of the 12 songs, and those are mediocre songs that end up vastly improved by his helping hand. The album's opening track, "Overture is just that - a violin overture for the album. The first real song on the album is the dark and unusual "Jerry a story about a "slightly" deranged man named Jerry who gets his kicks yelling at the man in the moon.

What the hell do those two things have to do with each other, you may ask Stay with me and I'll get to the connection in a minute. We have a big problem with being two-faced here in the Bible Belt Every day down here we put up the facade of being wholesome, pure, kind, loving, compassionate, healthy and happy. Yet every day we get closer and closer to being the exact opposite. One of the first images I can remember of my grandmother in- volves her creative use of fire and smoke. Ever since I was a baby (arjd I'm sure that it was a tradition loijg before then), my grandmother r4s struck a match and thrown it in tfle toilet to cover her more offensive after-bowel movement smells. Ttjs practice is a tradition now for mojst of my family and I can tell you frojn experience that it does nothing Jo cover any smell In fact if s wor$e because it makes the feces smiU burnt From now until the end of time, ! will associate the smell of matches with the smell of dookie and not- ing will change that fact If a friend of mine lights up a cigarette, I smfcll dookie. When I try to light soiie candles or make a fire in the fije- place so that my wife and I can have a romantic evening, I smell dookje. Until you've been through an exije- rience like this, and perhaps sortie of you have, you don't realize how often that struck match smell'is around. Believe me, the smell is ev- erywhere, j The reason I mention this prac- tice is because I think if s indicate of the small ways in which we South- erners try to cover up our less noble attributes. I'm not saying that my grandmother is ignoble I am say- ing is that she's deluding herself if she thinks that her stuff don't stink. And the South does the same thing. We delude ourselves injto thinking that everything is peachy keen and wonderful down here. Some think that all of our problems will go away eventually. But if we don't deal with them they will in fact get worse. There are still racist mi- sogynistic, hateful attitudes that are shared by multitudes of people be- low the Mason-Dixon line. Of course, I know that these same problems exist elsewhere in the country, too. It's just that they deal with controversy more openly than we do. If you don't like someone you tell them to their face instead of criti- cizing them behind their back.

Q1.3 FM East Carolina University Jennifer Phillips Student Health Service Flu Season is fast approaching. The article that follows is intended to serve as a guide to answer your most basic questions about the flu and how to avoid it. Question: What is the flu and how common is it? Answer: It is estimated that be- tween 25-50 million Americans come down with the flu every year. Influenza or "flu" includes any number of types of fairly common, highly contagious viral diseases. Question: How is the flu dif- ferent from a cold? a I e ! B ! i J GET ON jj (J rJ �;$�$ ��!� X WASHINGTON D.C. (Reggie Rock Bythewood Spike Lee DO httpwwwaonycom PICTURFS -i At Theatres October IB i Columbia Pictures Presents � � a15 Black Men40 Acres & A Mule Filmworks production a Spike Lee Joint Get On the bus Answer: Generalhlthe symp- toms of a cold involve s&ffy noses, sneezing, sore throatslind cough- ing. The signs and symptoms of in- fluenza tend to be more severe and to last longer. The distinguishing symptoms of the flu include: � high temperature, (102-104 F) lasting three to four lays � prominent headache � general body ache that may become severe � fatigue and weakness that may last two to three w�ks � extreme exhaustion � nausea and vomitag Other symptoms that may be present are the same as those found in colds (stuffy noses, sneezing, sore throats and coughing), and thus the confusion. Also, complica- tions such as bronchitis and pneu- monia may develop from the flu. Question: How is the flu trans- mitted? 1 Answer: Unfortunately influ- enza is highly contagious, particu- larly in the first three days of the infection. The virus may be trans- mitted by coughs, sneezes, laughs and normal conversation. The usual incubation period is two days. Question: How do I avoid get- ting the flu? Answer: Some health officials recommend everyone get annual flu shots. The Centers for Disease Con- trol in Atlanta estimate that 70 to 90 percent of healthy young adults who get flu shots will avoid infec- tion. It is best to obtain a flu shot in the fall, before flu season hits. It takes the body 12 to 20 days to produce protective antibodies after obtaining the shot. Beginning Oct. 15, flu shots will be available "at cost" to stu- dents at the Student Health Cen- ter. Call 328-6317 to schedule an appointment. Other than a flu shot, the best strategy for prevention is to maintain a healthy immune sys- tem through a balanced diet and The distinguishing symptoms of the flu include: � high temperature (102-104 F) lasting three to four days � prominent headache � general body ache that may become severe � fatigue and weakness that may last two to three weeks � extreme exhaustion � nausea and vomitin to get enough sleep - both of which can be challenging goals for college students. Question: Who is at the great- est risk of getting the flu? Answer: At highest risk for in- fluenza are those people over age 65; those with serious chronic dis- eases including: asthma, emphy- sema, diabetes, kidney disease, HIV infection, and anemia: and health care workers.

Her novels are constantly being trans- lated into major feature films, and to great critical and box-office suc- cess. But Ms. Austen was and is much more than simply a Hollywood fad. She is a major literary figure who still holds a firm place within the academic circle, and she is to be the topic of a talk given by James Thompson, the first speaker for the 1996-97 Theory Colloquium Lecture series. Thompson, an English profes- sor at UNC-Chapel Hill, will read his paper entitled "How to Do Things with Austen" this Wednesday, Oct 9, and he is definitely an appropri- ate voice for Ms. Austen. With a strong, specialized background in 18th-century literature, Thompson has authored several books, includ- ing his most recent Models of Value: Eighteenth-Century Political Economy and the Novel (Duke UP, 1996) and Between Self and World: The Novels of Jane Austen (Penn State UP, 1988). He is also widely published in a variety of journals, such as Philological Quarterly and Studies in Eighteenth-Century Cul- ture, w Getting specialized and accom- plished academics to read their lat- est work,is what the Theory Colloquwm is all aboutt Spon- sored by the En- glish depart- ment and the Dean of Arts and Sciences, the Coijoquium strives to, as its fliers across tr campus say, "present a transdisciplinary group of speak- ers on current topics in literary and cultural theory and to foster dialogue on those topics According to Jeff Williams, an English professor who created the lecture series seven years ago, the Colloquium is "designed to bring prominent people in the field of lit- erary theory, literary criticism or cultural criticism to campus to talk about relevant issues in the wide world of theory This world of theory is signifi- cant in today simply because the world is increas- ingly opening it- self up as a multicultural realm where dia- logue is the best way to under- stand and resolve controversial is- sues. The starting place for any so- lution is with theory. And, as Williams points out, "literary theory, literary criticism and cul- tural criticism have been the most prominent and active of the academic fields within the past 20 years "It doesn't just represent the English Department Williams stresses.

"We started on a shoe-string budget Williams ex- plains. "Although we don't have piles of money, due to the success of the series, we have consistent support from the the university, as well as other groups on campus The big reason for the Colloquium's success centers around the people who come to speak. So far, such noted academ- ics as Stanley Fish, Eve Sedgwick and Jane Tompkins have traveled to ECU to share their work and ideas. "These are people who are promi- nent nationally Williams says, "not just within their fields but also on national debates. And we've also had a number of people from other de- partments on campus I hope other fields will participate in the future By balancing accomplished vet- eran academics with people just be- ginning their professional careers, Williams hopes to get "young, active voices" that will help shape the fu- ture of the academic world. The lectures generally last about 30-40 minutes and are then followed by a question-and-answer session where open dialogue and debate can be had. Afterwards, all are welcome to a reception filled with beverages and snacks. Future speakers for this year's series include Thomas McLaughlin on Oct. 28 and Bruce Robbins on Nov. 25. James Thompson will be Oct. 9 at 4 p.m. in the General Class- room Building, room 2014. For further information, con- tact Jeff Williams at 328-6388. CjLJbSl from page 6 Clayton said.

HAPPY from page 6 ing front rhythm accompanied by a dance drum loop in the back- ground lets "Jerry" start things off on the right foot. "Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First)" is the next song, as well as the first single. Mellencamp him- self has described this song as hav- ing a dark topic with�a happy sing- a-long chorus. Nearly everyone can see a reflection of themselves in this song. "Key West" is a song about three people, two guys and a girl. One guy has the girl, the other thinks she should be with him, and this hidden jealousy rules the song. "Just Another Day" is the only Mellencamp song on the album with that classic Mellencamp sound. Straight from the older al- bums, "Day" sounds upbeat with a "live in the moment" feel. In fact, apocalyptical "live for today" mes- sages run throughout the record. "This May Not Be The End of the World" is a perfect example of Mellencamp's apocalyptic message. The chorus laments "This may not be the end of the world But you can see it from here Catchy one- Hners like this are widespread throughout the album. Other attention-getters include "It's hard to worry about the future When your past is knocking at your door and "Her Majesty, the Queen, is a pretty nice babe Not your usual idle Mellencamp chatter. Overall, Mr. Happy Go Lucky is an excellent collection of eclec- tic words and rhythms that should prove to be the best Mellencamp offering in a long while. One note to potential buyers, there are two versions of the album out there for sale. The retail giant Wal-Mart seems to have flexed their musical muscle again without saying a word. For years now, bands have been changing their albums especially for Wal-Mart. Nirvana changed In UterMo stay on the good side of Wal-Mart, but other bands haven't been so fortunate. The Goo Goo Dolls had their A Boy Named Goo album pulled recently. It seems that the cover photo of a boy with jam spread over his face resembled a boy wtth blood on his face to some customers, and Wal-Mart pulled the album. Sheryl Crow crossed paths withthe sensitive dealer when she made a remark about Wal-Mart sell- ing guns to children and teenagers. To sum up, don't waste your time look g for her new album in Wal- Mart ither. So, when Mellencamp prepared for the release of this album, he de- cided to walk the safe side of the road. The album cover, a picture of Mellencamp and a little girl with the Devil on one side and Jesus on the other, has been changed for the Wal-Mart public. The Devil and Jesus have been removed from all Wal-Mart bound copies to ensure that there are no bad feelings from the Wal-Mart public. Fortunately, the music came through unscathed, and hopefully Mellencamp's blue- jean rocker image will too.

I've already men- tioned that "Do You Want to Go to Heaven?" is a favorite of mine, but I don't think there was a single song I didn't like. Pap's rendition of "Guv'ment" was inspired - it made me think of our own wonderful student government (if you didn't pay attention to this song, go see the show again; this is not a compliment to the SGA).

Let me stop here and say that I could have done without that pig. My imagina- tion is strong enough to picture him kill- ing the pig and spreading its blood around the cabin without that pitiful vi- sual aid. It was entirely too comical, and while Stevens' song was funny, the cabin scene has a very serious undertone that I think was ruined by that prop. Chad Brown was really terrific as Huck Fina He had the world-wise inno- cence of Huck down pat One of the most important things about Huck's charac- ter in the novel is that he is almost an adult but still very child-like because of his unusual upbringing. Brown handled these aspects of the character very well. The relationship between Huck and Jim was also very well represented by Brown and Green. I could see the close friend- ship that existed between the two de- spite the racial barriers inherent within their society.

BflB HOWS: Monday -Friday: 7:30 am - 7:00 pm Saturday: 9:00 am - 3:00 pm HA One of the most hilarious parts of the show was the performance of the "Royal Nonesuch Lef s have a hand for Eryc Whiteley, who murdered Shakespeare with impressive skill! 1 laughed so hard throughout that entire speech that I cried. I also saw much more of Andy Slade than I ever wanted to � but with hilarious results. I think these two (Whiteley and Slade) were definite high points of the show, and their en- �BP ergy and wit really started the second act off with a bang. "The Crossing" was a very power- ful scene that was handled very well. The song was beautiful, and the message was so strong. Also, I just have to say. that Tara Kingsberry is awesome. When she sang "How Blest We Are I could hardly contain my admiration. What a voice! Another high point in the show was Jim Bray's performance of "Arkansas I know I speak for the entire audience when I say that he was hilarious. My sentiments were echoed in the curtain call when Bray got quite a few whistles and screams. All in all, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this show. I go to the theater first and foremost to be entertained, and I was not disappointed by Big River. The show closes tonight and I definitely suggest tak- ing this opportunity to see it if you haven't already. VAJKXi from page 6 The band also consists of Greg Brown (electric guitar, organ), Victor Damiani (bass), Vincent di Fiore (trum- pet percussion), and Todd Roper (drums, percussion). All have made their mark on this disc You can tell them apart, and they compliment each other well. A few songs on this disc did remind me of something I had heard before, yet the band makes no mention of where they swiped the sound from. For ex- ample, "Friend is a Four Letter Word- sounds just like Willie Dixon's "House of the Rising Sun Although there's something about their creativity that sparks my interest there's also some- thing about their thievery that makes me wanna puke. On the other hand, there are songs on this disc that are taken from other artists and the band gives them credit for it Isn't that nice? The album includes covers of "Sad Songs and Waltzes which was written by Willie Nelson, and "I Will Survive which was made fa- mous by disco queen Gloria Gaynor. Not surprisingly, the band does these songs justice. You have to cut down to the essen- tial roots of a song to make it come to life, especially when covering a song. You have to think about what was go- ing on when the song was written. What made that person write that? What makes you want to cover it' And how are you going to let people know how you feel about it? In an ironic sort of way, it's hard work. Being an artist is all about opening your mind, no limits. But when you cover a song, in order to do it justice and out of respect you place limits on where it can and can't go. To their credit Cake knows what a groove is and they don't seem to have any problems making somebody else's song come to life. Listen to this album when you're out to have a good time. It's a bonus that adds a little to any situation. Every song is different and that's beneficial when you're trying to get your groove on. The album is called Fashion Nug- get. The group is Cake. The eatin's good. SCREAM from page 6 There's nothing politically correct about it No censorship, no backstabbing, no lies. Hatred is above board, and there- fore easier to deal with. In the South, you never know who hates you or who doesn't We're in a state of constant para- noia. A friend recently gave me a poster that outlines this problem well. It lists the little white lies that a particular North Carolina senator (yeah, that's right the famously bigoted one) would have us believe to be true. I'll list them here for your convenience. And what the hell, 111 point out their Southern inconsistencies, too. 1. Family values: The family that prays together stays together. Okay, do you mean to tell me that all those church-going folk who get di- vorced were really worshipping Satan all this time. Wow, thanks for clearing that up. With the divorce rate now up to 60 percent 1 guess Satan's doing a better job than God. Way to go, Satan. 2. Racism: It's just business as usual Yep, that's the South for ya. You didn't really expect anything to change after that whole civil rights thi.ig, did you? The only thing that's changed is how often those in power lie about their true feelings. 3. Gun control: Guns don't kill People kill. Well if that's true then you don't mind if 1 give these M 16's to these mon- keys, do you? I mean, if all we're wor- ried about is people, then take the guns away from them and put them in the hands of the more evolved simian. Guar- anteed lower death rate. 4. Sex education: No sex is good sex. This is a statement from somebody who has never had sex. Responsible sex is good sex. Nuff said. 5. Censorship: "Freedom of ex- pression" is for people who look and think exactly like him. I would say something about this, but I'm not 6. Desegregation: We're flee, white and 21, as we say in North Caro- lina - Senator Jesse Helms, as quoted in the New York Times in 1981. So by now you've guessed who this is I'm talking about First of all, I've never heard anyone in this state say the above quote besides the man himself. And secondly, if he's 21, then I'm still a fetus. Let's have a reality check here, people. The Southern mentality is aH about ducking the issue at hand and Jesse is a perfect example of this. He deals with problems by dismissing them out of hand. Simple one sentence an- swers will solve them all, he seems to think. But instead of shirking the re- sponsibility, we Southerners need to step up and embrace our difficulties. They will be that much easier to deal with and perhaps overcome.

State, right? Believe it or not, the grand finale of the season is approaching quickly. Now is the time to purchase your tick- ets and make plans to attend what is guaranteed to be one of the most ex- citing college football games of the year. With more than 28,000 tickets already claimed, a limited number of tickets are available, but are expected to sell quickly. At this time, seating is available in both the upper and lower decks for $25 and $38 respectively. Any tickets that are not sold within the next few weeks will be sent back to Charlotte to be sold, and at that time, will no longer be available at the $10 student rate. For all of you Pirate fans who are planning on purchasing your tickets the week of the game, not only are the chances of getting tickets slim, you will also be denied your student discount Now is the time to get those tickets. The last time the Pirates faced the Wolfpack was in 1991 in the Peach Bowl when ECU came back to claim a 37-34 victory. The last regular sea- son game between the two schools was in 1987 when ECU came away from Raleigh with a 32-14 victory. However, NCSU still leads the over- all series 12-7. Traditionally, the glme draws huge crowds. This year's game will be no different. The game will be particularly spe- cial because it rep- resents a renewal of rivalry, accord- ing to Lee Work- man, assistant ath- letic director for ticket sales and promotions. "This game is a step forward for East Carolina University Work- man said. "We will be able to show the entire state of North Carolina what ECU is all about by making a huge statement about pride, class and spirit on national tele- vision The game, scheduled for Satur- � mmm day, Nov. 30th in Charlotte, will be the first ever college football game to be held at the Carolina Panthers' Ericsson Stadium. The rivalry with the Wolfpack is one that contin- ues to grow each year and it is im- portant to fill the stadium with a lot of purple and gold to promote school spirit "The ECU NC State game carries with it such a rich tradi- tion of rivalry Workman said.

(Right) Junior Stacie Gause breaks through the defense on her way down the field, Jon Lauterer Staff Writer The ECU women's soccer team split two games this week beating UNC-Wilmington and losing to Vir- ginia Tech. The bittle with the Seahawks took place on Wednesday at Bunting Field. The weather conditions were less than ideal, but the Lady Pirates seemed right at home on a soggy field. ECU started the game showing agile pass control and effective mus- cling of the ball from their opponents. The women's team showed a great deal of determination because they hadn't won a conference game up to this point. Now. in front of a home crowd, the Pirates had their chance. As the first half was winding down, it appeared that the Pirate de- fense was breaking up. The Seahawks' goalkeeper was looking impenetrable as well. Just a few minutes into the sec- ond quarter, the Seahawks' goal- keeper received a fierce kick to the head. She did not leave the game, and after a few minutes of composing her- self, she was ready to begin play again. Then one of the most well coor- dinated plays this team has pulled off this season occurred. Midfielder Mel- issa Rucker passed to midfielder team captain Stacie Gauss, who then crossed the ball from the right of UNC- W's touchline tc Stacie Schott for a monster header. This play left Wilmington dumb- founded and bewildered, making it. impossible for them to catch up. Then came the frustration fouls by the Seahawks, resulting in a yellow card. When the final whistle sounded, ECU were the victors by a score of 1- 0. "It feels pretty good to get a con- ference win Head Coach Neil Rob- erts said. "The girls played hard. They played really well in the first half. Credit IUNC Wilmington for hanging in the game. Keeping the score 0-0 at half-time The Sunday game with Virginia Tech proved to be a tough challenge for the Pirate team. The Hokies jumped on the board early in the game with a goal by Denise Williams in the fifth minute. ECU attempted a barrage of shot attempts on the Hokie goal, but all came up short. The Hokies shut out the Pirates 4-0. All was not lost at the half, but the Hokies of Virginia were too pumped up. They scored three times within ten minutes. The Pirates couldn't recover from that point on. "We got beat bad today by a good Virginia Tech team Roberts said. "We have to put this one behind us and get on with it We have a big game to get ready for on Wednesday night (Richmond) ECU's record now stands at 5-5- 1 and 1-2 in the CAA. The Lady Pirates will square off with the University of Richmond this Wednesday for the first time ever. The match will be in Richmond and will begin at 7:30 p.m. Loss suffered in overtime Pirates fight the good fight, but come up short Jon Lauterer Staff writer Photo by CHRIS GAYODSH The fans were freezing on the benches this past Friday, but the play- ers were sweating up a storm in an intense battle between the ECU men's soccer team and the visiting Jackson- ville Dolphins at ECU's Bunting Field. "It was a strange game Head Coach Will Wiberg said. "But is started out well It appeared to be a good start for Friday's game when sophomore for- ward Wyatt Panos assisted to fresh- man midfielder Robert Hyatt for a Pirate goal. Panos has been playing all season with a broken jaw, but the Swansboro native has still managed to start every game. ECU played an intense first half and it showed going into halftime. The Pirates concluded the first half leading the Dolphins 2-1, but Jack- sonville still had some hat tricks left for the Pirates in the second half. Freshman midfielder Brian Denoo was injured by the Dolphin goalie at the beginning of the half, and had to be helped off the field. The game continued to become more like football Americana as the second half got underway. The ECU bench was livid when senior midfielder Kevin Johnson was issued a red card. Jacksonville took advantage of the call and scored from a penalty kick, leaving the score 3-2 still in ECU's favor. Soon after, on the 85th minute of play, the Dolphins tied the score at 3-3, forcing the game into overtime. Just before the end of regulation, senior midfielder Darrec Jones was ejected for foul language, marking the end of the game for the Pirates. "We played well on our part Wiberg said. "Everything just unrav- eled in the end When overtime began, so did the Jacksonville bombardment on the ECU goal. The Dolphins scored three goals during overtime, leaving the fi- nal score at 6-3 Jacksonville. "We played really competitively for the first 80 minutes of the match Wiberg said. "Unfortunately, circum- stances beyond our control cost us the game ECU now goes 1-6 on the year with conference play slated to begin later this month. The Pirates are now preparing for a big game with the Wolfpack of N.C. State on Wednesday. The game will be played at Bunting Field with a 3 p.m. kickoff time. SRC to open this fall The ECU volleyball team was defeated by N.C. State last week in a make-up match due to Hurricane Fran. The Wolfpack swept ECU in three games, 15-0, 15-7, 15-3. The Pirates now hold a 5-14 over- all record. Freshman Shannon Kaess led ECU offensively, totalling 11 kills. The defensive leader was Kari Koenning with 16 digs. The team will take a few days off before resuming normal practice. The Pirates will be on the road Saturday, Oct. 12 against College of Charleston. Then on Sunday, Oct 13, the Pi- rates will take on Wofford Col- lege. Both matches are set to begin at 1 p.m. t Jason Freeman and Brett Rowley of ECU advanced to the sec- ond round of play at the Southern Collegiate Championships Friday. iRowley began in a preliminary rouad match with Anshoomen Aga of Troy State. After defeating Aga 6-0, 6-1 he advanced to the first round of the division three flight. Rowley then defeated Vinicius Carmo of UT-Chattanooga in a hard fought three set match 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (3). Senior Freeman also advanced with a 6-1, 64 victory over David Walker of Sanford in the first round of the Division four flight. Roope Kalajo defeated Dennis Topjc of Georgia State in a hard fought 7-5, 6-3 match to win his round. K�,lajo then played fourth seeded Nic Chisholm.
