Across The State
RALEIGH (AP) - On Mon-
day, the second annual NC Child
Health Report Card was issued by
a coalition of health care and
child advocacy groups. The report
indicated the health of NC chil-
dren has never been better.
The broadest indicator of
children's health - the number
of deaths among North Carolin-
ians 18 and younger - shows the
state has never been better. The
89 deaths per 100.000 children
reported in 1995 was the lowest
ever.
RALEIGH (AP) - President
Clinton was endorsed by 40
North Carolina chief executives
Monday.
"What's impressive to
me, really, are the job creation
numbers- 10.5 million new jobs
in the nation and 315,000 here
in North Carolina said former
Lt Gov. Bob Jordan. The group
of North Carolina supporters in-
cludes 2,500 business leaders,
such as state Democratic party
chairwoman Libba Evans and
former party chairman Tom
Hendrickson.
Across the Country
MILLTOWN, NJ. (AP) - Re-
turning to the campaign trail af-
ter the first presidential debate,
Bob Dole pressed his comeback
quest Monday by insisting he's
the candidate that voters can
trust ? and suggesting he might
name some prospective Cabinet
choices in advance, including re-
tired General Colin Powell.
Dole tried to build on the
momentum claimed from
Sunday's showdown in Connecti-
cut, although early polls sug-
gested the debate had produced
little movement in the race.
ST. MARKS. FL. (AP) -
Tropical storm Josephine began
lashing Florida's coast Monday
night with 70 jnph winds and
high surf, spawning tornadoes
and dumping up to 5 in. of rain
across the state.
Pushing a storm surge of 6
to 9 feet at the peak of high tide,
the storm's center was expected
to strike land at midnight about
30 miles south of Tallahassee.
Around the World
JERUSALEM (AP) - Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu re-
fused to budge Monday from his
demand for improved security for
Jewish settlers in Hebron before
Israel will honor it's agreement
to withdraw forces from the city.
The Israeli prime minister ac-
cuses the Palestinians of under-
mining the peace process by try-
ing to pressure Israel with vio-
lence.
LISBURN, NORTHERN IRE-
LAND (AP) - Bombers struck at
the center of Northern Ireland's
security Monday, detonating two
car bombs inside the British
army's headquarters and raising
fears the providence could again
become a battleground between
the IRA and pro-British. Thirty-
one people were wounded.

Tuesday's rain turned several ar-
eas of the ECU campus into swimming
pools of water.
The ECU Police Department re-
ported flooding in the parking lot by
Minges Coliseum and Dowdy-Ficklen
Stadium, the commuter lot at the
bottom of College Hill and the com-
muter lot on Charles Blvd.
"The lot at the bottom of Col-
lege Hill was the worst, especially the
end on the east. The eastern end is
the lowest and had several feet of
water Teresa Crocker, director of the
ECU police department said.
"It looked like about three feet
of water in the back low corner (of
the commuter lot). I'm judging that
based on the water being about at
windshield level on some of the cars
in the back (northeast) corner said
Assistant Vice Chancellor for Facili-
ties Dr. George Harrell.
The police department assisted
with directing traffic, starting stalled
cars and getting students to cars in
flooded areas during the rain.
Students whose automobiles suf-
fered damage need to have the dam-
age assessed by the police department
as soon as possible.
"If a report is needed for insur-
ance purposes they (students) will
need to come to our department If
we're talking about damage to carpet
in a car, they (students) would not
want to wait a week to have us assess
it" Crocker said.
Crocker also said that the univer-
sity will not be libel for any damage
caused to the cars because "flooding
is considered an act of God
"The university intends to pay for
vehicles that were towed from the
parking lots. While there were a num-
ber of cars that could not be towed
prior to being submerged in the wa-
ter, we did manage to save 70 vehicles
from damage said Layton Getsinger,
associate vice chancellor for business
affairs.
"Any students who had their text-
books damaged by the water in their
vehicles can take them to the student
store and we will replace the books if
they are in stock. If the books are not

The newly refurbished Delta
Zeta Sorority (DZ) house is now re-
opened. The DZ house was closed
at the beginning of last year due to
structural and environmental dam-
ages. The house had fallen into dis-
repair and had many environmental
problems that needed correcting, in-
cluding asbestos siding and lead
paint on the outside.
Repair was delayed during the
first part of the year due to environ-
mental requirements which needed

Jennifer Barnes
Staff Writer
Fraternities and sororities across campus join forces this week during
Greek Week to promote their organizations and to provide the ECU commu-
nity with information about the Greek system.
The fraternities and sororities join together for a week of fun and togeth-
erness Oct. 6-12. Last Sunday, an intramural rugby game for sororities fol-
lowed by the Greek god contest, sponsored by Alpha Xi Delta started off the
week long celebration. Monday. Pi Kappa Alpha sponsored the Greek goddess
contest. Bill Burnette, president of the Interfraternity Council (!FC), was
pleased with the outcome of the events.

argument and practice, that it is pos-

Less hassle for commuting students
Educational
opportunities open
regionally
Amena Hassan
Staff Writer
This fall, the department for
continuing education has started a
new program for commuting stu-
dents. The program has cut out the
need for students to commute by
opening other educational centers
with partners across the eastern
part of the state.
"The North Carolina Legisla-
ture chose East Carolina University
as one of the four participants in
the program Diana M. Henshaw,
director of the department said.
"Many of the students who take ad-
vantage of the approved program
cannot leave their jobs, homes, or
children for extended periods to
commute. To even drive a few
hours is a hardship and adds the
expense of gas and extra meals that
could be made at home
The four partners in the pro-
gram are Carteret and Craven Com-
munity Colleges, the Marine Corps
Air Station at Cherry Point (for
easy accessibility to marines) and
Havelock Middle School. The av-
erage age of the students is 34.
Twenty-six percent are from the
Department of Defense, 15 percent
are minority students, and 70 per-
cent are women.
Instructors from ECU, who are
partially funded by grants, travel
to the partner sites to instruct stu-
dents. Students learn information
through instruction and also
through the Internet. "Alongside
face to face instruction, students
are gaining the additional benefit
of learning Internet technology"
Henshaw said.
"In many cases, the students are
young men and women who left col-
lege in the past but feel it is neces-
sary to finish their degree retrain,
or upgrade training Henshaw said.
"Some have associate degrees at
community colleges but need to ad-
vance with a degree at ECU Ac-
cording to a sampling of student
comments from the Fall 1995
CarteretCraven Partnership Pro-
gram, students find traveling to
Greenville would be extremely diffi-
cult; many appreciate the variety of
degrees that are now being offered
to them in the areas where they live.

Rivals battle for win, respect

End Zone Writer
RESPECT!
In the 1960's Aretha Franklin was sing-
ing about it. In the 1980's, Rodney
Dangerfie!d felt that he wasn't getting any.
Now it's 1996, and there are two college foot-
ball teams that are striving for it - ECU and
Southern Mississippi.
These two programs are not unfamiliar
with each other as they get ready to battle
Thursday night in front of a national televi-
sion audience on ESPN 2. This series has had
some of the most memorable games in re-
cent memory, and on Thursday night buckle
up because as we like to say in the south
"this one's going to be a barn burner
The Golden Knights bring a 4-1 record
into Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium, with impressive
wins on the road over Georgia and Louisville,
and USM Head Coach Jeff Bower knows his
team can only get better.
"I don't think we are anywhere close to
what we can be yet Bower said. "I think we
can be much better
Coach Steve Logan knows to watch out
for a Southern Miss, team that doesn't pass
up any opportunities.
"They're just an opportunistic bunch
Logan said. "That's really the way they've
always been down there
USM quarterback Heath Graham has
struggled this season, so Bower looks to be
making a move to sophomore Lee Roberts.
Roberts has only attempted two passes all
season, and has no yardage to show for, but
Bower said he had no choice in making the
change.
"We have to be better offensively and
we can't wait until something bad happens
and then say we should have done something
a week ago Bower said. "We have to make
some changes. We have to address that right
now because this is the time that you do it
Bower is very impressed with the Pirates
this season, and he knows that ECU will be
gunning for a win Thursday night, which would
probably bolster them into the Top 25.
"East Carolina is a very good football
team Bower s?'d. "I think they are a top 25
team. They are 3-1 coming into the game, and
are very scary offensively
As much as the offense has struggled for
USM, the defense and special teams have made
up for it. The Golden Knight defense is fourth
in the country against the run, allowing just
60.8 yards per run, and USM's special teams
accounted for most of the scoring in the Louis-
ville game. These are two phases of the Golden
Knight attack that ECU Logan knows that
Bower will be looking for Thursday.
A player Bower knows his Golden Knight
defense will be looking for is Pirate sopho-
more running back Scott Hariey.
Look for ECU to keep the ball in the air
equally as much on the ground.
"I don't think it's going to be who can throw
the best, it's going to be who can run the ball
better Logan said.
Hariey, who has rushed for 638 yards in
the '96 campaign knows how important this
game is to ECU'S season.
"I think we've got a good enough game
plan this week that we can go in there and pick
at them all game Hariey said.
The game will begin at 8:05 p.m. tonight.
Fans are encouraged to get in the stands at least
30 minutes before the game to fill the stadium
for the pre-game show on ESPN.

The End Zone
Events organized for fans enjoyment
Amanda Ross
End Zone Editor
This week's nationally televised game is
going to begin with a bang - literally.
The hype surrounding the game that will
? be on ESPN 2, has been surfacing all sea-
; son. Officials are planning special events to
! take place during the game, to ensure that
; the excitement lasts from the beginning to
?
the end.
This is only the third nationally televised
Sjame from Greenville, and will be the only
college football game on television tonight.
xThls game will not only promote the football
team, but it will benefit fans and the city of
. Greenville.
Lee Workman, Assistant Athletic Direc-
tor for Sales and Promotions is gearing up
Jor the major event.
"Certainly any time we can get the op-
portunity to put our best foot forward to a
national audience it will benefit the stu-
dents Workman said. "When they gradu-
ate the name recognition is out there for
them
Athletic officials are urging fans to get
to the stadium at least 30 minutes before
the kick-off. At 7:30 p.m. ESPN will hold
their pre-game show and it is vital that when
the cameras pan around to the stands that
they be full of cheering ECU fans.
"A lot of folks may never get to the cam-
pus and this may be the only time they get
to form an image of East Carolina Work-
man said. "When they turn on the tube Thurs-
day night and see a full house, they'll say,
whoa that's a big time place. But if they
turn it on to see a half empty stadium with
no enthusiasm, their impression is just not
there
To start the show, the football team will
enter amidst a huge cloud of smoke with
fireworks going off.
"We've got a special entrance planned
for Thursday night Workman said. "We've
got some fireworks, smoke and music blar-
ing over the PA
Some significant officials in the world
of football will be in attendance for the game
also.
The vice-president of programming on
ESPN, will be here to watch his first game in
Greenville and another newcomer will be in
attendance. Michael Slive the commissioner
for Conference USA will witness, in person,
the Pirate football team in Dowdy-Ficklen.
The director of the Liberty Bowl will also make
the game.
Fans are encouraged to make banners
to put up around the stadium to show school
spirit. Banners must support ECU and must

Half-time festivities will include recognition
of the men and women who helped to get people
in this and surrounding areas back on their feet
after Hurricanes Bertha and Fran. Fans are also
asked to bring non-perishable foods to the game
and drop them off at boxes located at each gate.
"After the hurricanes came through, we
wanted to do something in some small way for
those people who got us back up and going
Workman said.
This game is sure to be a lavish affair and
fans are encouraged to show spirit any way they
can. A lot of planning has been put into
Thursday's game and it is sure to be a game no
one will forget.

said. "Something a little different than we have
ever done before

The End Zone
Thursday, October 10,1996
Shannon ieaps to new heights
Dill Dillard
End Zone Writer
In recent years, with the success of
former Pirate Jeff Blake and the current
Buc signal caller Marcus Crandell, ECU'S
football program has been often referred
to as "Quarterback U
Now as any football fan know, behind
great quarterbacks are great receivers on
the other end of great pass plays. Junior
split end Larry Shannon has been on the
receiving end of more than his share of
passes from Crandell.
At 6'6 205 pounds, Shannon gives
any quarterback an impressive target, not
to mention his ability to leap up to get the
ball. Shannon has broken a team record
for the highest vertical leap for a wide re-
ceiver at ECU with a leap of 38 inches. With
his frame and ability, along with excellent
speed, Shannon gives a quarterback the
freedom to put the ball up in the air and
let him go get it.
After being red-shirted in his freshman
year in '93, Shannon saw action in every
contest in the '94 campaign. The Starke,
Fla. native opened eyes by coming in and
registering 17 catches for 226 yards along
with his team leading six touchdown grabs.
Most of his touchdown receptions came off
what has now become Shannon's signature
pattern, the "fade
"Well, it's a pattern where I can utilize
my height and I can just go up and get the
ball Shannon said.
After a fantastic freshman year, Shan-
non followed it up by improving the very
next season by grabbing 24 catches for 346
-yards and five touchdown's.
"Ever since I got here, Coach Logan
has worked with me on going up and get-
ting the ball, using all of my abilities, and
it has been something we've been able to
take advantage of Shannon said. "It al-
ways seems to be there
It is no secret that when the Bucs are
in striking distance, that a lob from Crandell
to Shannon is a serious threat in the back
corner of the end zone. Of course with a
weapon like Shannon, most teams keyed in
on the big 80 on his jersey which somewhat
took away the fade.
The only problem for Pirate opponents
is that this guy can go deep as well as pull
down the red zone jump ball from a shorter
defensive back. In his two years as a Pi-
rate, Shannon has averaged 14 yards a
catch, and was remembered by most Pirate
fans as the receiver that pulled down the
67 yard touchdown pass during the first ECU
offensive play of the West Virginia game.
"Most guys I face are shorter than me,
which gives me an advantage and gives
Marcus a bigger target Shannon said.
"Most DB's probably think I'm slower be-
cause of my height which also catches them
off guard
This season, Shannon has kept the ball
rolling, leading the Pirate receivers with 14
grabs for 188 yards along with three touch-
downs. Even as a junior, Shannon has been
recognized for possible post season acco-
lades.
Earlier this season, Shannon was se-
lected as one of 21 receivers put on the
"Watch List" for the Biletnikoff award given
at the end of every season to the best of
college football's receivers.
"It's an honor to be recognized, but
it's not going to affect me, I'm just going
to go out and do my job the best I can
Shannon said.
The "Watch List" will be narrowed
down to 10 semifinalists later this month,
and the winner will be announced in De-
cember.

Remember to
bring canned
goods to the

food banks can
be replenished.
Are you pumped?
We are definitely ready.
When ECU hosts Southern Mississippi tonight on
ESPN 2, it will be only the third time a game has been
nationally televised from Dowdy-Ficklen.
If ever fan support was needed it is now. The pre-
game show will start about 20 minutes beforethe game
and the cameras will pan around the stadium showing
the crowd. If we don't have the stands full before the
game, it will look pathetic.
ESPN is so sure we'will have a good showing of fans,
they made the ECUMiami game their prime-time game
on Saturday, Oct. 19, at 7 p.m. Now we wouldn't want to
disappoint them; would we?
Some big-time officials are going to be at this game
and the more fans we have, the better recognition we
will have. The vice president of programming for ESPN
will be in attendance as well as the commissioner of
Conference USA and the director of the Liberty Bowl. .
This is a big game as far as the bowl berth goes since
ECU has participated in the Liberty Bowl for the past two
years. Officials not only make their bowl selections based
on the team record, but also the crowd support.
During the game, special events have been organized
to ensure that the game is a blast. When the Pirates take
the field, look up in the sky and you'll think it's July
4th. That's right; fireworks will be blasting off along with
smoke when ECU makes their entrance.
During half time, the heroes of the two hurricanes
will be recognized for their hard work and determina-
tion for getting us back where we are today.
Before you go to the game, be sure to stop by the
grocery store to pick up non-perishable food to put in
boxes that will be located at every gate. Since the hurri-
canes, the food banks have been depleted and it is vital
that they be replenished.
This is our chance to show the entire country what
ECU football is all about. The team and coaches have
been asking for respect from the football world and its
fans and now is the time.
This game is going to lead to bigger and better deals.
It's already landed us a prime-time spot next week against
Miami. It doesn't get any better than this.
The siren will bl&re across the PA to signal that game
time is near. At that time we hope you'll pack up the
food, head to the stadium and fill every seat.
So far student ticket pick-up has been successful. Now
we just need to make sure that when the cameras start
rolling, the fans are there to show their spirit.
Just think, this may be one of your only chances to
get on national television. So when the game starts to-
night, wear your purple and gold, show the country your
ECU pride.
Take another look at
domestic violence
This month marks the anniver-
sary of OJ. Simpson being found not
guilty in the murders of Nicole Brown
and Ron Goldman. During the
Simpson trial and the media circus
? S that surrounded it, the subject of do-
' mestic violence was brought into the
spotlight Domestic violence tears at
?? the very fabric of family and is an
; extremely troubling issue.
Women's advocate groups are to
H be commended for their efforts to
end spousal abuse. However, as with
; any cause, an extremely liberal view
can prove detrimental to one's ef-
; i forts. Columnist John Leo points to
an important?study of domestic
abuse. The study began in 1975 and
! ? was most recently updated in 1992.
In the May 13, 1996 issue of U.S.
News and World Report Leo states
that, due in large part to the efforts
of women's organizations, husband
abuse toward wives has declined
since 1975. During that same time
though, spousal abuse toward hus-
bands has remained static. As a re-
sult, instances of wives assaulting
husbands are now higher than hus-
bands abusing wives.
Ironically, under mandatory ar-
rest laws, states are now seeing more
wives arrested for petty assaults than
husbands. By focusing on one side
Steve Higdon
Opinion Columnist
So, ladies, think

boyfriend; under

you may be the

? ;
of the issue and demonizing men.
Leo maintains that far left groups
have missed a prime opportunity to
lower all domestic abuse cases. Also,
in typical liberal fashion, arrest laws
that were supposedly meant to help
women are now getting them ar-
rested. So ladies think twice before
you slap your boyfriend, under lib-
eral legislation you may be the one
arrested.
This is not to say that women's
abuse is to be trivialized; it is a very
legitimate issue. Instances of hus-
band to wife violence are much more
violent. Women are much more likely
to be seriously injurttj or killed in a
domestic violence incident. The time
has come for solid reform that pro-
tects the rights of women and chil-
dren rather that penalizing victims.
It is good to know that people
are working to stop such violence.
Ann J4. Barnhill is such a person.
Mrs. Barnhill is a trial lawyer special-
izing in domestic violence and fam-
ily law. Since 1979 Mrs. Barnhill has
fought for the rights of abused
women here in Pitt County.
With sexual harassment and do-
mestic violence so prevalent in soci-
ety Mrs. Barnhill is a bright light on
the horizon. In an unprecedented
move Ann Barnhill is running for
election to the district court bench
in Pitt County. She is the first
woman to ever file for election for
this position in Pitt County's history.
If elected Mrs. Barnhill will be the
first woman and the first Republican
to be elected to this position. In the
true Republican tradition she will
fight for individual rights, this time
the rights of battered women. Help
to show that Pitt County is a pro-
gressive community with the inter-
ests of women and family at heart.
Lets help to break Pitt County's
"Good 01' Boy" network with the
election of Ann H. Barnhill to Dis-
trict Court Judge.

Vote pro-choice b&'96
I cannot think of an issue that
engenders more disagreement,
more anger, more screaming and
yelling. It's something that most
politicians usually try not to touch
with a ten-foot pole. But it's a topic
that is on the minds of many, and
it's something that we are going to
tackle this week.
With all of my other liberal ar-
ticles. I guess you don't have to be
a rocket scientist to guess where I
stand on this issue. I believe that
no man or woman has the right to
dictate what another woman can or
cannot do with her body. It's true
that most Democrats share my view
and most Republicans are pro-life.
Let me say one thing. I highly
respect the conscientious decision
for someone not to have an abor-
tion. I respect people who do not
agree with the procedure; and I re-
spect families who feel abortion is
wrong. What I do not respect is in-
dividuals on the pro-life side who
want to mandate what a woman can
and cannot do with her own body.
Here's an important distinction
to make. I'm not pro-abortion. I
don't know anyone who is. What I
am, and what a majority of Ameri-
cans are, is pro-choice. That is, all
we want is the ability for women to
make the choice themselves, with
their family and their God. If people
are against abortion, then they
have every right to decline to have
one; and that's fine.
The Republican party platform
states that they support a consti-
tutional amendment banning all
abortions. That means if a woman
is raped, she would not have the

right to terminate that forced preg-
nancy. If a woman is a victim of
incest, she would not have the right
to terminate that pregnancy. If a
woman's life was in danger, she
would not have the right to save
her life. If a woman's child were to
be severely deformed, she would
not have the right to save that child
from a life of torture and pain.
I know that many will disagree
with my previous statements and I
welcome that. Our country is built
on the fact that reasonable men and
women can disagree. However, I get
really tired of pro-lifers who claim
that we who disagree are Godless;
that they have a mandate on mo-
rality. First of all, most of the
people who are screaming and fuss-
ing are on the pro-life side. I drove
by a pro-life rally in Raleigh the
other day, proudly displaying my
ClintonGore bumper sticker. Well,
besides all of those offensive "Abor-
tion Kills Children" signs, some of
those people gave me the meanest
looks, and one of them gave me the
finger. What kind of morality is
that?
I hate to bring this up as well,
but sometimes pro-life arguments
are somewhat intellectually lacking.
I read the Reflector the other day,
and instead of seeing a letter to the
editor where the writer expressed
his disagreements with President
Clinton on the abortion issue, the
writer called Clinton a "baby killer"
and proceeded to deem him "Willie
Scissorhands Feeble words from
a feeble mind. Also, speaking of
morals, I haven't heard of pro-
choice people acting violently.
What I have heard is of several doc-
tors who have been killed by pro-
life extremists, who try to use the
issue to justify murdering someone.
Make no mistake, there are many
good, honest people on the pro-fife
side (I know several of them). How-
ever, I'm saying there are some real
morons on the other side, plain atid
simple.
Well, this wasn't the easiest of
columns to write, but remember fhe
point: Disagreement on the issues
is fine, but restricting freedom is
the greatest evil of all. In a perfect
world, we would all be pro-choice.
There would not be a minority of
people who sought to deny worrjen
their reproductive freedom. Thjfere
would be reasonable people dis-
agreeing on which choice to make,
whether or not to have a first-tri-
mester abortion. But this isn'J a
perfect world, and for many djys
to come, you'll see the best, and
worst, that the pro-life movement
has to offer.

on campus Along with that position
should go not only the highest level
of accountability but also the highest
vel of concern for the welfare of their
If
constituency.
Perhaps, as a move in the right
direction, the SGA legislature should
propose a new bill that would instead
use that money to aid the dozens of
victims of the flood in the commuter
lot at the bottom of the hill. I am sure
that there were many people who lost
textbooks and other essentials, not to
mention the damage to their cars. I
believe that those students who have
unwittingly been spending their hard-
earned money so that SGA executive
I
officers can have a free ride on the
system would appreciate knowing ex
actly how concerned their electe4 of-

Some people's careers start
when they leave college. Others be-
gin before they ever reach college.
And there are tons of people out
there who have never found their
niche, who are still searching.
Yet, who would ever think of be-
ginning a career at the tender young
age of ten? Leila Josefowicz would,
that's who.
Josefowicz is a virtuoso violin-
ist from Los Angeles who began her
musical studies in 1980, when she
was three. In 1987, her career as a
professional musician began when
she dazzled the world by perform-
ing on the NBC television special.
"America's Tribute to Bob Hope
In 1994. at the age of 17, she
received the prestigious Avery
Fisher Career Grant and had perfor-
mances at Carnegie Hall and the
Academy of St. Martin. Besides
these stellar accomplishments, her
career has also included perfor-
mances with the London Symphony
Orchestra, a tour of Japan, and ap-
pearances with many major orches-
tras in the United States. Josefowicz
has even released an album of the
Tchaikovsky and Sibelius concertos
on the Phillips Classics label. And
she's only 19.
Well, tonight at 8 p.m. in Wright
Auditorium, this young violinist will
kick off the 15th anniversary Pitt
County concert season for the North
Carolina Symphony. Josefowicz will
perform Beethoven's "Concerto in
D major for Violin and Orchestra
Maestro Gerhardt Zimmerman will
lead the orchestra in Mozart's "Sym-
phony No. 34" and in Sinfonia by
contemporary American composer
Oily Wilson.
After the concert tonight,
Josefowicz plans to do a return tour
of Japan, make her concert debut in
Australia and tour Europe, as well
as continue her studies at the Curtis
Institute of Music in Philadelphia.
Needless to say, she may not be re-
turning to North Carolina for a
while, so do yourself a favor and
catch her now before she gets too
old to play anymore. Just kidding.
Concert series tickets are $25
for adults, $20 for students and se-
nior citizens, and $15 for children
under the age of 12 and are avail-
able by calling 355-0858. Single tick-
ets are also available through the
ECU Central Ticket Office at 328-
4788 and are $17 for adults. $15 for
students and senior citizens, and
$10 for children under the age of
12. And. as always, tickets will be
available at the door tonight.

Sweet, jaded 16.
1 often rode around at night in
my friend's truck. (He drove because
he had the cassette player). We drove
out behind the grocery store where
we both worked as bagboys. There
was a long stretch of road out there
that was all dirt and gravel - the land
of doughnuts. Spinning round and
round with the truck, we kept the
windows open, dirt kicked up in the
air, and all the while, the radio played
loudly - really loudly. It was dough-
nut music - the Replacements, Black
Flag, the Dead Kennedys, Angry Sa-
moans, and, of course, the Descen-
dents.
The Descendents' music was the
perfect companion for parking lot
mayhem and for cynical (with no idea
why) 16-year-olds. The band sang
about girls ("Silly Girl"), food ("I Like
Food") and girls ("Sour Grapes").
Formed in 1978. the group trans-
formed into All in 1987 with lead
singer Milo Aukerman splitting and
ex-Dag Nasty lead man Dave Smalley
taking over. Smalley was the first of
three lead singers All would retain.

That Thing
Hanks does
Student
Spotlight
Usually when a group of young
college students get together to
form a rock band the result is some-
thing either promising but not
quite up to par (so that they have
to wait five to ten years to come
into their own) or something so
mindless and inconsequential that
the band gains instant but fleeting
success.
Weezer fits into neither of
these categories, falling in with the
rarer sort of 20-something bands,
such as Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys
or War-era U2. that somehow have
a maturity in songwnting and tech-
nical ability far beyond their years.
Rivers Cuomo. Weezer's singer
songwriter and resident musical
genius, can easily stand next to
Brian Wilson in lyrical and melodic
grace, and next to the Edge in mu-
sical ability. Weezer's infectious
noise-pop is clever, fun and yet
emotionally charged.
Drawing from such diverse in-
fluences as the aforementioned
Beach Boys and '70s theater-rock
like Kiss and Queen, as well as from
classical literature and pop culture.

named The Wonders, and it perfectly
illustrates how the business aspect of
the music industry cares nothing for
artistic integrity.
Even though a story about a strug-
gling band who makes it big to only
fall by the end is not exactly the most
original concept. Hanks puts such a
snappy, innocent spin on the whole film
that the story markedly becomes his.
The result, That Thing You Do, while
not very intellectually challenging, is
as fun. snappy and pure as any song
from the earlv davs of rock n' roll.

Mission: Impossible
Tom Cruise and Brian DePalma both accomplished the seemingly im
possible last summer when they transformed the hit '60s television series
Mission: impossible into a certified hit feature film. While the ads for this
Cruise flick hyped the action in the film. Mission: Impossible turns out to be
a spy story with more brains than brawn.
This is not to say that this story, involving a renegade group of spies
fighting the system in an effort to clear their names of federal charges, does
not have its share of action. The finale, while not quite as explosive as it
could have been, does feature Cruise battling some baddies on top of a speed
ing locomotive. However, the hulk of the film is more subtle, and more com
plex, than that.
Many critics complained about the plot being incomprehensible. Ignore
those idiots. While Mission: Impossible is a film that warrants audience at
tention. the plot is more predictable than incomprehensible.
Some may grow bored with the movie's methodical pace, but others wil
delight in this thinking person's action thriller. The film's must-see scene
features an incredible break in at the Pentagon While this scene has virtuall)
nodialogui oi sound effects, it proved to be just as exciting as any tornado in
Twister, one blockbuster action film that showed no sign.s of intelligence
Kwame Rigsby is one ECU student
who sees the good inherent within cul-
tural awareness. Rigsby is the president
of the ECU Thespians of Diversity, an
organization that strives to create cul-
tural tolerance through the dramatic art
form. Witliin the small community that
the Thespians have created. Rigsby has
found a home for himself and his tal-
ents.
"I found out about the Thespians
in 1993 Rigsby said. "They were called
the Black Thespians back then. I went
with my brother, Olayta and that's where
I met Reginald Watson" Mr. Watson is
a lecturer in. the English department and
the founder of the Thespians.
Being an undergraduate commu-
nications major. Rigsby put his talents
and his interests to good use for the
Thespians. "I have been in charge of the
music and bringing the sound systems
to the programs. I also work at bringing
in more actors
Rigsby sees the Thespians as a very
worthwhile organization that has much
more to offer the community than sim-
ply an evening's entertainment "I get
the feeling that we haw a lot of talented
people in the group Rigsby said. "Hope-
fully when we come fully together this
semester, we can continue with our tu-
torials at the local schools and the boy's
and girl's clubs
These tutorials are voluntarily con-
ducted by members of the Thespians of
Diversity in an effort to encourage local
school children in their educational pur-
suits. According to Rigsby, the tutorials
serve the community by "helping the
students with the classes in which they
are not doing their best Most of the
students are athletes, but I try to get
other students involved

HANKS from page 6
The opening credits wonderfully
set up the mood for the entire film by
playing a catchy pop '50s tune over a
montage sequence of Tom Everett
Scott (who eerily looks just like a young
Tom Hanks) working in an appliance
store. Ah, those were the days, filled
with soda pop, ponytails and
Studebakers. The times were young,
innocent and pure.
Or so Hollywood, the source of
all of my "50s knowledge, would like
us to think. While Hanks captures the
nostalgic idealism of the pre-Vietnam
era. he still slips in hints of what the
future holds for America. Scott's father,
who runs a locally owned business, be-
moans the fact that a super mart is
open on Sundays. "I don't think I want
to live in a country where a man has
to work on Sundays to support his fam-
ily the hard-working father states.
But the focus of Hanks' film is the
music, the '50s sound that symbolizes
the supposed innocence of an era. Ev-
eryone is familiar with this sound. We
hear it daily on the golden oldies sta-
tion where the Beatles sing about the
joys of holding a girl's hand. But any-
one who listens between the lines of
such lyrics will many times discover a
less innocent interpretation of these
joyous songs. Yes, even the '50s had a
dark side.
However, instead of indulging in
such dark territories, Hanks only
touches upon them lightly and, instead,
allows his film to ultimately be light
fun and, yes, innocent

"That Thing You Do are a perfect
metaphor for countless bands that have

wants to focus all energies on exploit-
ing the Wonders' current hit as much
as possible. The money is with the hit
single, so the hit single is what gets all
the attention. Current musical stars
like Eddie Vedder and Billy Corgan can
probably identify with this dilemma.
Hanks could have easily made a
"serious" film in which we witness the
growing, inner conflicts within the
band slowly eat away at its members
until they just break apart from one
another. We could have watched the
creative pulse of the band withdraw
into his music and himself to the point
that the band no longer is a unit. We
could have even stayed with the band
as they and their music both lose their
innocence because the times force'
them to become more "experienced
But all of that has been done be-
fore.
Instead, Hanks makes That Thing
You Do more like American Graffiti
than The Doors. And, admittedly, that
decision seems to have been the right:
one. The film, like Hanks himself, has
a natural pureness. The actors (mostly
unknowns, with the exception of
Hanks and the incredibly talented Liv
Tyler) are all effortlessly effective in
their individual roles. The cinematog-
raphy and editing (professionally ac-
complished by Tak Fujimoto and Ri-
chard Chew respectively) don't try to ?
detract from the story with dazzling
effects. Even the music (some of which
was written and produced with the
help of Hanks) carries such an
' uncontrived sound that one could eas-
ily picture the fresh-faced Beatles
crooning such tunes.
After winning two Oscars in a row
and starring in numerous box-office
blockbusters. Hanks set himself up for
disaster by writing and directing his
own feature film. Not surprisingly,
though, Hanks once again proves that
he is not a one-hit wonder by creating
a film worthy of his talents and his
nice-guy image. While I do hope that
Hanks sinks his teeth into some juicier,
more controversial topics in the future,
That Thing You Do is an appropriate
starting point for a man who does his
thing so well.

The East Carolinian
WEEZER from page 6
Weezer have managed to outshine
their 1994 debut in every way with
their new record by creating a
catchy yet intimate musical tapes-
try.
Titled Pinkerton, after the
westerner in the play Madame But-
terfly who falls in love with a Japa-
nese beauty, the album centers
around just this theme. There are
several long-distance love songs on
the album ("Across the Sea "el
Scorcho "Butterfly"), and the
cover art features a painting of a
Japanese village, a black-on-black
photo of a Japanese lady, and a map
of Japan.
It's probably a safe guess to say
that Cuomo (or someone else in the
band) has fallen for a fan from Ja-
pan. The references are all over the
album. Though all of these love ref-
erences are plainly heart-on-the-
sleeve, they are delivered with a
sense of humor that only could
have come from the composer of
"Undone - The Sweater Song
In "The Good Life Cuomo de-
clares, as if it is a life-and-death mat-
ter, that "I just need to admit that
I want sugar in my tea Hear me,
hear me - I want sugar in my tea
(Eastern cultures use no sweetner
in their tea.)
The clash of cultures is defi-
nitely an issue, but a resolvable one,
or so Cuomo asserts in "el
Scorcho where he sings with
gusto "I'm a lot like you, so please,
hello, I'm waiting. I think I'd be
good for you, and you'd be good
for me ?
Some of the other songs,
though not quite close to the cen-
tral theme, still focus on unrequited
love, sometimes in unexpected
ways. "I'm dumb, she's lesbian
Cuomo laments in "Pink Triangle
What '90s male can't relate to that
dilemma? "She looked so straight
when she was on the dance floor,
and oh-so sexy "
"Tired of Sex" is the realization
of a male slut that there's more to
DESCEND from page 6
love than, well, than unrestrained
sex.
The music on the album is still
solidly Weezer, but noisier. Gone
are the catchy, Cars-esqe '80s key-
boards. In their place are even
catchier '90s guitar noodles and
noises. The album opens up with a
feedback-filled drum stomp that
slides easily into the angst-filled
first line of "Tired of Sex
Cuomo's sense of musical com-
-position is by no means gone,
though. The guitar lines are still
wonderfully attractive and hooky.
The melodies are as fun and sing-
alongable as ever. The chorus of
"Falling For You" has got to be one
of the best chorus melodies this de-
cade. Dance music has rarely
sounded this rock and roll, at least
not since the '50s.
"Why Bother" is a perfect
party song, in spite of the fact that
the song is all about the fear of
being hurt in a relationship. You
still can't help but sing along and
tap your feet as the song promotes
relational suicide.
Cuomo's ability to contrast
moody themes with catchy, fun mu-
sic is topped only by the indomi-
table songwriting team of Lennon
and McCartney. Weezer is tighter
than before, tripping along complex
polyrythyms and vocal harmonies,
and they have improved from the
repetitive strum pattern that was
all over the first record. The over-
all musical canvas sounds less fuzzy
and more gritty and groovy, pull-
ing Pinkerton to heights that the
first album could not reach.
It is a sad thing to note that
this is Weezer's last album as
Weezer. Rivers Cuomo will be fin-
ishing his college education (at
Harvard) and band-mates Matt
Sharp and Patrick Wilson have de-
cided to develop their side project,
The Rentals. But then again, it's
kinda nice, knowing that an album
as superb and sublime as Pinkerton
will be Weezer's swan song.
Alvarez and Steven Egerton remained
on with All, releasing six albums, nu-
merous EPs and a live album, Trail-
blazer(l9S9).
Now, nearly ten years later, Milo
is back with Stevenson, Alvarez and
Egerton, and the Descendents are
once more with the release of Every-
thing Sucks on Epitaph Records.
Do the Descendents still have
what it takes to rule the parking lot
and provide inspiration for the teen-
age art of "la doughnut?"
Start your engines.
Everything Sucks features 15 fast
and forever furious songs. Only one
song eclipses the three-minute mark,
and, in fact eight songs don't even
make it to two minutes. They still sing
about girls ("Sick-O-Me"), girls ("She
Loves Me") and food ("Coffee Mug").
Milo and the boys show on "Rot-
ting Out" that they were jaded Cali-
fornian basket cases when Billy Joe
and Green Day were still dookving in
their pants: "Shove all your problems
under the rug Then you wonder
where the smell came from
Nevertheless, if the Descendents
indeed have as many problems of the
female kind as Everything Sucks (and
actually all of their albums) seems to
indicate, then it probably sets a record
for the number of heartbreaks one
band can suffer. In "I'm the One
Aukerman sings, "No one knows as
good as me We're just good friends
And you come to me for sympathy
You tell me that I'm not your type
But you still call me late at night
Every time he picks a fight After all
he's said and done And in "Sick-O-
Me he sings again, "Relationships de-
teriorate I've seen if from the start
Easy as it is to fall in love It's
easier to fall apart I won't let it fall
apart" The above-mentioned record-
setting stress is especially evident in
these two tracks.
My only complaint with the al-
bum is the widespread use of the
word "suck Not only do they say
"This place sux" in "This Place but
actually, "Everything Sucks" today
apparently.
The reformed Descendents, how-
ever, do not suck. They're older, just
as happily angry, and, in fact, they
seem to play even faster and harder
than they did as young punks in the
'80s. The songs are simple and filled
with silly girls, but Everything Sucks
remains perfect punk pop.

The summer of 1996 will be one
that many North Carolinians would
soon like to forget. Two devastating
hurricanes. Bertha and Fran, blew
their fury through N.C. Many residents
throughout N.C. lost everything they
had. and many towns were hit tragi-
cally hard by wind, rain and tornadoes.
What resulted from this was a major
clean up effort and hard work from
many North Carolinians.
In typical North Carolina resil-
ience, people from this great state
pulled together and helped each other
through thus trying time.
Tonight at the ECU and South-
ern Mississippi game the "heroes" of
these two hurricanes will be recognized
as "The Heroes of the Hurricane
"The idea came from the ECU ath-
letic program and the goal was to rec-
ognize all the people who worked so
hard to recover North Carolina, and
also expose these people to Pirate foot-
ball ECU Athletic Director Mike
Hamrick said.
In conjunction with the Emer-
gency Management officials, ECU will
distribute discount cards to personnel
from the fire and rescue. Red Cross,
National Guard, utilities, department
of transportation, law enforcement and
cable companies.
The card is good for one compli-
mentary ticket and additional tickets
will be at ten dollars a ticket Person-
nel from 19 Eastern North Carolina
counties, from Raleigh to all the east-
ern counties will receive these tick-
ets.

efforts have helped to rebuild, the
many areas of the eastern part of our
state which were affected by the hur-
ricanes Hamrick said.
The personnel, along with receiv-
ing the discount cards, will be hon-
ored at half time during a nationally
televised game on ESPN2. As of right
now, the athletic office does not know
if these people will be shown on the
nationally televised game.
tragic events.
"These organizations have dem-
onstrated a commitment to do every-
thing they can to rebuild this area,
and this is a small way of saying
thanks to these dedicated individu-
als Hamrick said.
So tonight Pirate fans, give these
people a special ovation; they have in-
vested a lot of sweat and tears in put-
ting North Carolina back together
again. Without the efforts of these in-
dividuals, N.C. might still be in
shambles.
Remember. Pirates, as you are
cheering the Bucs on loudiy, for an-
other home win and a possible spot
in the Top 25 national rankings, that
the special individuals being honored
at half-time deserve your respect and
admiration. Show them what the
"Spirit of the East" is all about.
They may have helped clean up
your town or helped one of your fam-
ily members get through a very try-
ing time. Without them, the football
game being played tonight may not
have been able to be played.

Coming off a hard loss last week to Virginia Tech, the ECU Rugby team came back this week to destroy the
University of South Carolina 50-0.
The scoring started early for ECU. Two minutes into the match, after three consecutive penalties against the
Gamecocks, the Pirates were awarded their first of several trys for the day.
"We simply took advantage of their ignorance and our hustle team President Todd Ward said.
ECU's offensive surges highlighted the match. Rookie Richie Cunningham had several long runs to the outside,
scored one try and had one try called back. Cunningham was worried about his ability prior to the match, but stepped
up and proved himself worthy of the A side start
"We worked the outside all day team Captain Mike Myers said. "Their defensive skills?on the wing were poor at
best so we attacked it"
Myers had a solid day with three 30- meter-plus runs for tries and one penalty try. Eric Kunckle. Kendal Jones
and the ECU pack all added to the scoring barrage.
"ECU owned their pack, with 600 plus pounds in the front row it's hard not to dominate Jr. "Son of Satan"
Manning said. "Stolen lineouts, eight man shoves and zealot - like defense really takes the heart out of a team and
that's what we did tore their hearts out"
In the second game of the day. ECU faced a determined USC "B" side. One long run to the outside and a penalty
play from 15 meters out proved to be too much for the young ECU "B" side. USC couldn't convert the points after for
either try and the score at half was 10-0.
The ECU team dug their heels in for the second half. Rookies Jamie. Brad Noris and "B" side all-star Kevin
"Meatball" Sellars all had excellent efforts to include a game winning try from Sellars. The final score was 12-10.
These wins make ECU's match record to 2-1. The next contest for the Pirates will be Saturday at the Allied
Health field against the Cape Fear Rugby Team.

Runners gear up for meet
Women's cross
country team
heads to Auburn
Sean R. O'Brien
Staff Writer
ECU Women's cross-country
team is expecting a good showing
this weekend as they prepare to run
in one of the biggest meets of the year
at Auburn University.
The meet will host 40 schools and
over 300 women runners this week-
end, as the Pirates prepare to face the
most challenging field of the year. This
meet will bring in the top runners
from across the southeast, mid-west,
northeast and western states. Head
Coach "Choo" Justice sees this meet
as a way to evaluate the program and
see where the teams runners need to
be, as the Colonial Athletic
Association's conference meet is fast
approaching.
"We see this meet as way of see-
ing how we stack up against some of
the best teams in the country Jus-
tice said. "We're going to go into this
meet and hope that we can improve
on our individual times and to pre-
pare for the CAA conference meet,
that is the most important meet for
us of the year
The Lady Pirates will have to
compete this weekend without their
top runner from last year, Suzanne
Bellamy. Bellamy has not been able
to run in any of the meets that the
team has competed in this year be-
cause of a recurring tendonitis prob-
lem. Running without Bellamy is a
major setback to the team's overall
performance because of her ability to
run up front. She was named CAA
rookieof-the-year last year as a fresh-
man, but Justice will be looking to
other runners to step up in her ab-
sence.
"We're a middle-of-the-road type
of team right now, we're not great,
but we're not terrible either, but we're
half speed without Suzanne in the
lineup Justice said. "We are looking
for several of our runners to get the
job done this weekend, particularly
Kerri Hartling and Karen Reinhard
Reinhard, a junior from Burke.
Va? knows how important it is for the
team to do well. She is one of the co- '
captains on this year's cross-country
squad and understands the struggles ?
that her team is going through with-
out their top runner. She also hopes a
to improve on her individual time of ?
19:19 in the team's first meet of the 4
season, in which she placed third. ?'
"Having Suzanne out has hurt us
quite a bit as a team Reinhard said.
"She is our strong leg on the team
and with her out it really puts a dent
in our overall conference record
As for Reinhard's personal goals
for the match, she only has one.
"I'm not getting too wrapped up ?
in how 1 place, as much as 1 am con-
cerned with my time Reinhard saidi "
"I would like to close in on 18 min- ?
utes if at all possible, which is where
I need to be for the conference meet.?
As for the team as a whole, 1 hope
we can close the gap between the top
five teams in the conference
The women's cross-country team
will head off to the N.C. State Cham1
pionship Oct. 19 following the Au1
burn meet this weekend. The CAA '
Championship will be held outside-
of Greenville this year at Lake Kristi
on Nov. 2. "

Intramural soccer kicks off
David Gaskins
Rec Services
The 1996 intramural soccer sea-
son is set to kick off next week with
registration meetings and team sign-
ups leading to the opening of the sea-
son on Wednesday, Oct. 23.
The registration meeting will be
conducted on Monday. Oct. 14 at 5
p.m. in Mendenhall Student Center,
Room 244. AH team captains should
plan on attending this meeting in or-
der to obtain necessary information
and paperwork for participation in
the league. Unaffiliated play-
ers seeking a team should also at-
tend the meeting for assistance in
placement on a team. Team sign-ups
will be conducted the following day
on Tuesday. Oct. 15 in Christenbury
Gym. Room 104-A from 10 a.m. to
3:30 p.m. Leagues will be offered in
men's independent gold, men's inde-
pendent purple, fraternity gold, fra-
ternity purple, men's residence hall,
women's independentresidence hall
and sorority.
The gold level is designed for
experienced players who wish to par-
ticipate in a highly competitive atmo-
sphere whereas purple leagues are
designed for teams who are recre-
ational or somewhat competitive but
less advanced in skills and experi-
ence.
The various leagues offered are
intended to provide a level of skill
and competitiveness appropriate for
anyone desiring to play. League times
are available on a variety of days and
times in order to accommodate the
schedules of participating teams.
The soccer preview is a new pro-
gram which will provide additional
pre-season play opportunities for a
limited number of teams in a jambo-
ree format on Monday, Oct. 21 and
Tuesday. Oct. 22.
More detailed information and
sign-up guidelines for this program
will be discussed at the soccer regis-
tration meeting.
Regular sea-
son play will be-
gin on Wednes-
day, Oct. 23. All
teams will play a
four game regu-
lar season fol-
lowed by a single
elimination play-
off within each of
the respective di-
visions. Games
will be held at
the North
Ficklen Stadium
Intramural
Fields.
In order to
participate,
teams should
send a represen-
tative to the reg-
istration meeting, complete a ros-
terparticipation contract, and sign-
up for a league the following day.
Regulation teams are composed of a
minimum of nine players but there
is no roster limit. The offside rule is
not in effect and slide tackles are not
permitted. Participation is open to
currently enrolled students and fac-
ultystaff of ECU. The 1995 program
was composed of 68 teams with the
"Tappa Kegs" capturing the all-cam-
pus gold title. While Lerone Jenkins
and a few other members of this team
have been spotted around campus,
there is considerable question as to
whether this team will return to de-
fend their title.
In order to
participate, teams
should send a
representative to
the registration
meeting,
complete a roster
participation
contract, and
sign-up for a
league the
following day.

The biggest news at this level
revolves around the tremendous
amount of free agent dollars being
spent by Geoufrey Anderson of "My
Damn Team to assemble a dynasty
and shoot to the top of the stand-
ings.
While he has already recruited
soccer superstars Brian Weingartz.
Daniel Finn and David Adam, several
players are presently restructuring
their contracts in an effort to fit
prized free agent Vu "Bicycle Kick"
Donie under the salary cap.

cer program, please contact David
