TUEfe? November 12,1996 Vol 72, No. 23 The Circulation 12,000 Across The State CHARLOTTE (AP) - When Gov. Jim Hunt won an unprecedented fourth term, he also won an unprec- edented chance to control the course of the state. When the new General Assem- bly convenes in January, Hunt will call most of the shots - something some Republicans admit For now, Hunt pledges to heed voters' mes- sage to join hands with lawmakers and put politics and party aside. DURHAM (AP) - The head of a federal environmental health agency in Research Triangle Park is deny- ing claims by former employees that chemical exposure at the building led to their cancers and respiratory problems. The former employees of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences say they got cancer and chronic respiratory problems from working at the facility more than a decade ago. Across The Country BALTIMORE (AP) - Army in- structors charged with raping and harassing female recruits at a train- ing center are also accused of threat- ening them - sometimes with death - to keep quiet Four drill instruc- tors and a captain at the Army Ord- nance Center have been charged, three with criminal charges and two on administrative counts. The five men facing charges, which range from rape to sending improper love letters to the trainees, were accused of harassing at least a dozen women in their first weeks of training. WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) - Pushing his deaf daughter into traf- fic. Handing his 4-year-old a high- voltage wire. Hiring hit men to mur- der his only brother. Prosecutors say David W. Crist 38, committed these crimes against his own blood for a base reason: greed. He collected $133,000 from a life insurance po'icy in his brother's 1982 death and stood to gain $200,000 if his two young daugh- ters hadn't survived. Around The World FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) - A two-hour warning strike by Lufthansa employees at Frankfurt Munich and Hamburg today forced 35 flights to be canceled and caused delays of up to 2 i2 hours. Flight and ground personnel belonging to the German Workers Federation went on strike from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. to demand a better wage offer and a longer contract in negotiations with the airline. AMALAPURAM, India (AP) - The wives of Indian fishermen sat with their children today and waited with the desperate hope that their husbands were not among the more than 1,000 people known killed by a powerful cyclone. Five days after the storm roared across India's southern coast, an- other 1,000 missing fishermen are presumed dead - except by their wives.

Sallie Mac, one of the nation's lead- ing sources of funds for higher educa- tion, is trying to make applying for fi- nancial aid easier. The company has re- cently made its College Answer Service a nationwide program. The service began as a pilot pro- ancial aid questions gram in 1994, but was only available to people in the Washington D.C. area. Now interested people throughout the nation may obtain information and re- ceive help from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern time. The idea for the program came from the growing number of questions financial aid officials face dealing with the financial aid process. "Ye (Sallie Mae) had feedback from financial aid officers that this would be a really good idea of something that we could do to help students, parents and schools with their questions concern- ing financial aid Sallie Mae Associate Denise Rossitto said. The program's director is Steve Stocks, a former college financial aid director; and the queries will be taken by a team of specialists comprised of Sallie Mae employees trained in finan- cial aid. Help will be provided for concerns with locating grant sources and possible work-study programs, but the program is primarily offered to answer questions about college financial aid and to give advice about it Families can use this service by call- ing 1-8003914599 or via the Internet at http:wwwialliemae.com. Sallie Mae's World Wide Web site also features information on planning and paying for college. Students and fami- lies can forecast college expenses, calcu- late expected family contributions and compute monthly loan payments using interactive calculators also featured there. There is also a personal finance tutorial which can help college students respon- sibly manage their money. Common Questions Answered by New Service When do I apply?

Mike Hanley, head athletic direc- tor, said that the changes were nothing major, but they will mainly help fill in the questions that were formed over the years through the use of the present policy. "I think basically the changes are meant to tighten the policy Hanley said. "It had been awhile since the policy had been changed and it just needed to be updated Some of the tightening that was done involved rewording parts of the policy that didn't exactly spell out the restrictions they wanted tc iphold. For example, Hanley said that one thing that was changed was that the new policy states if an athlete tests positive on a drug test hisher fresh- man year, and then again his her senior year, that athlete's slate does not get wiped clean, but every- thing stays on it On the exist- ing policy, this was not worded in a way that would enforce its purpose. It was little things like this that they wanted to change. There was one big change that is being brought into the upcoming policy, will profoundly affect the soon to beformer policy. Hanley said that in the past when an athlete was given a drug test heshe had to be given writ- ten notification beforehand, but that is "I think basically the changes are meant to tighten the policy � Mike Hanley, Head athletic director Photos Courtesy of Art Rodhgues (Top) This float was created to let people know of ECU'S chemistry department and Pitt County schools getting together to let 40 middle grade students learn what it is like to work in a real chemistry lab.

Joe Castiglione, MU athletic director, said the students complaints brought the offensive remarks to the attention of the athletic department which was previously unaware of Steve and DCs racial remark. He said an appearance by Steve and DC could be construed as an endorsement of them, and that would not have been in MU's best interest After the incident four years ago, the duo was fired from their job, and before being picked up by another St Louis radio station, they went through sensitivity training. Erika Swarts News Writer Bomb letter suspect at USF out on bail The 19-year-old charged with sending a bomb threat letter to Univer- sity of South Florida went home to his mother on bail Friday and he has been ordered to seek psychological counseling. Damian Conrad Hospital was released by US Magistrate Thomas Wil- son after a family friend in New York put up his house to secure a $50,000 bond. Hospital, wearing black Chuck Taylors and a black T-shirt with the drawing of a woman's face on it said little during the hearing. Outside the federal courthouse with his lawyer, Hospital smiled and told reporters he was happy to be leaving jail. Hospital is no longer a USF student or resident although school offi- cials will not say whether he withdrew or was expelled. Until he was ar- rested Oct 1 on federal charges he mailed a threatening communication to USF, Hospital lived in Theta Hall. The letter Hospital is charged with writing threatened to bomb a USF building and kill a female professor. In response, USF moved finals up one week and shut the campus down the day the attacks were supposed to take place. Get a degree without going to class at NC State In the past students have tried to earn their degree while not attend- ing class. It didn't work. But now, NC State's College of Engineering is offering an off-campus, video-based program through which engineers and scientists can earn a Master of Engineering degree without attending campus classes. Registration for the Spring 1997 Video-Based Engineering Education (VBEE) program begins Nov. 1. Concentrations include: civil engineering; chemical engineering; materials science; electrical and computer engineer- ing; and computer science. VBEE courses are regular classroom lectures that have been video- taped. Tapes are sent weekly to enrolled students, who review the tapes and submit homework assignments by mail.

During Sigma Gamma Rho's Founder's Week, they will sponsor vari- ous activities that include a blood drive, a dating game in conjunction with Al- lied Blacks for Leadership and Equality (ABLE) and a Heartwalk. Sigma Gamma Rho was founded Nov. 12, 1922 at Butler University in Indiananapolis, Ind. It was founded by seven teachers. At the time, they believed that greater service led to greater progress, so the basis of this organiza- tion was service and scholarship. The ECU Eta Mu Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho was founded Dec 3, 1977 by 16 ladies. "It is important for them (Sigma Gamma Rho) to celebrate Founder's week Panhellenic Council President Candace Turner said. "It is for them to commemorate the organization and to show respect to their founders "The goal of the Eta Mu Chapter is to change the fact that Sigma Gamma Rho is not prevalent in the south Anti- Basileus (Vice-President) Jessica Mabry said. "We have traveled to different schools and have tried to start new chap- ters In order to start new chapters, they have traveled to several step shows to support fellow sisters of Sigma Gamma Rho. They particiapated in the shows for fun. They were not able to win because they did not attend those particular schools. According to Mabry, there are only a few things that the Eta Mu Chapter has changed since the beginning. The first deals with hazing. They do not participate in any form of hazing. The second deals with their beliefs in unity. They look to eliminate any form of com- petition, especially competition that could form of any kind of tension. As far as their volunteer work goes, the sisters of Sigma Gamma Rho help the American Heart Association with clerical work and they call for donations. They also helped with Harvey Gantt's campaign and have tutored young area children. They have carried their community service projects into this week's Founders Day activities. They are participatiing in a Heartwalk Saturday morning, and they helped with a blood drive on Monday. According to Stacey Hargrove their Grammateus (financial secretary), they are planning to return most of the money they receive from Founder's Week back to the students in some way. They also have a call for Founder's Week.

"These experiments were chosen to increase the awareness of science in these children Rodriguez said, adding that the experiments were done at four different stations, with 10 children and at least two assistants at each station. The first experiment involved the separating of mixtures. In this case, different inks were broken down into their base components. "This experiment is used to dem- onstrate how different colors are com- bined to make different inks, and also show how mixtures can be broken down chemically Rodriguez said. The second experiment dealt with using indicators to discover if an item was basic or acidic. "In this experiment we will have a variety of different items and the children will determine whether or not they are an acid or a base on the ba- sis of what color the indicator turns when it is applied to the substance Rodriguez said. The third experiment involved finding out whether or not different types of food have starch in them. "The students will prepare a solution and then apply it to different types of foods. The color will change in the absence or presence of starch Rodriguez said. Rodriguez said the final experi- ment was the perennial favorite among kids: the slime experiment. "The slime is actually a polymer that is very easy to make. After they make it they will test the various physical properties it has Also as part of National Chemis- try Wee' a magazine called Wonder Science was distributed to all Pitt County fifth-graders. The magazine contains a variety of chemistry based activities that can be done at home or at school with only household chemicals. 71 �q RINCIIM.KS " S () I � N 1) � R I.

Watts has been taking students to Bermuda to study shipwrecks since 1983. In 1989, he filmed an- other educational television pro- gram with N.C. State University and through his contacts there, became involved in the Search special. "I'm glad that the people at N.C. State thought enough of us and enough of our program to invite us to participate in the special. Hope- fully this way our program can be- come more known Watts said. Every fall, a group of eight to 14 graduate students goes to Ber- muda to work on the remains of sunken ships along the coast. Groups have previously worked on 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th century ships as well as several Civil War ships associated with North Caro- lina. The students benefit from the first-hand field experience and write the articles published about the re- mains uncovered. The artifacts are turned over to the Bermuda Maritime Museum which ECU has helped for the last decade. In addition to this television ap- pearance, ECU students participated this year in the filming of another one-hour television program.

Oh it's that time of the year again. That's right - registration. It's the time when we get to wait in long lines and wonder if we will get the classes we need. For upperclassmen it's not that much of a problem as it use to be. For underclassmen it sucks. For years people have been complaining about the registration process at ECU. Their main complaint is that ECU is behind the times in getting on line registra- tion. Most other universities have a system students can call from the convenience of the home and get the classes they need. At ECU, you will find people camping out to be the first in line when the computer terminals open. Also, the computers have been known to shut down and lock up, making it impossible for students to get the classes they need. Usually they come back up in a timely manner, but it is frustrating for the students. ECU is currently working on a plan that will allow students to be like other universities and register on the phone. We at TEC feel that it is about time. ECU is making so many changes to the campus and it is about time they make a change in the registration process. True, they are working on it but how long are we going to have to wait? We realize it is not an easy process and there is a lot of work involved, but for a university on the rise, the students feel like they are in the dark ages when it comes to registering. The freshman might not know what all the fuss is about, but, come Thursday, when they have to wait, they will realize what most upperclassmen complained about when they were at that point in their college careers. So, if you are going to register, take a bottle of aspi- rin. You'll need it If you have already gotten your classes, congratulations. We write this column every time registration comes around and we hope one day in the near future we won't have to write about the hassle of registration. But for now, all we can do is wait and see if the process of registration catches up to the progress of the rest of university. Marguerite Benjamin, News Editor Amy L.

Name $110 for first class $40 for bulk rate Address Letter Editor Some of my colleagues and I were discussing what is "ugly" this weekend. We thought that ugly is an opinion. So, keeping that in mind, we decided to look it up in Webster's New World Dictionary- Third Col- lege Edition. The book has four definitions for ugly. Each of the four uses words like unpleasant, aesthetically offensive and repulsive. Now, each of those "defining" words is just about as vague as the one in question. So, a little back-tracking was necessary. It was found that both of the previous editions of the same dictionary de- fined ugly as "the opposite of beauty Ahhh, well now everything was much clearer! In a book of defini- tions, we got opinions. Granted, defi- nitions are based on consensus of opinion . But what is the consensus on ugly? Certainly, we college students can come up with a better idea of what ugly is than the aforemen- tioned. Now, I'm not going to lie and say that I have never said that so and so was ugly. Judgmental as it is, it is sometimes unavoidable. But as I get older, I start to realize that passing that kind of judgment is myopic and crass. (Boy, do you ever feel like life is just one big 12-step group?) So, how do we come up with a defini- tion for ugly that is not only politi- cally correct, but has sound and fair reason behind it? Well, it has to be an objective term, but at the same time it has to be cut and dry. We don't want any gray matter here, that just wouldn't be fair. What Anthony Slade Opinion Columnist If I try to sit bcsc and think of somethii myint warai like era sauce. about anything perceptual that in- duces immediate vomiting? No, no, too messy. Okay, how about some- thing that causes physiological, vis- ceral, or psychological discomfort? Nah, too Freudian. Got it! Any ani- mal, vegetable, mineral or sound that drives you to a point of delirium where you want to crawl back into your mothers' womb? Nope, defi- nitely way too Oedipal. This is sad. If I try to sit back and think of something ugly, my mind wanders to things like cranberry sauce and Tommy, the grade school bully. Though both have points that make me "feel" a certain emotion that I associate with ugly, each still has fac- ets that I could deem worthwhile. For example, my mom knows that I don't like cranberry sauce, so she doesn't bother asking me if I want some. Moreover. Tommy may have tripped me a lot getting on the bus, but at least he's in jail now. So, when it comes to a few random things that I find "ugly" I have alternate feelings that make them not so "aesthetically offensive What is so troubling is that I know this word exists, and so does a definition behind it But I can't seem to find the ideal example of it. Why is that? Maybe, and I'm just expos- tulating (SAT word), the word can appropriately be thought of as a pass- ing of judgment Judgment is de- fined in one way as "an opinion or estimate Ah, my point is coming to a head! What is an opinion? Opin- ion is defined as "a belief not based on absolute certainty or positive knowledge, but on what seems true, valid or probable to one's own mind There you have it! With a little bit of reasoning and logic we find that "ugly" is a relative term. Meaning that it is no way based in fact You cannot show someone something that is ugly. Point being, that I'm tired of ev- eryone labeling something in a nega- tive way. The word ugly doesn't per- meate a good feeling in the person who uses it nor in the object of that harsh judgment. Now, I'm not some whacked-out hippie looking for Uto- pia, I'm just sick of thinking that things are ugly. Because when I think ugly thoughts, I feel ugly and I'm simply running out of the valium that gets my mind off the subject. Ultimately, I'd like to leave you with one last definition.

Tuesday, November 12,1996 The East Carolinian L'Fle Faculty exhibition focuses on culture S?e ot t&� 4& J.B. is modern-day Job Jennifer Coleman Senior Writer Would it be a greater trial to have everything and lose it all, or to have everything, lose it all, and then get it back? This is one of the questions asked in Archibald MacLeish's Pulitzer Prize winning play J.B. J.B. is the modern-day version of the Book of Job from the Bible. J.B. is your average church-going, Bible- reading, God-fearing man; he has a wonderful wife, good kids, a nice job, his health and an unwavering devo- tion to God. Here's the kicker, though: God and Satan get together and have a little chat about J.B and Satan gets to thinking he can pull one over on the Heavenly Father. So he comes up with this challenge. "Hey God Satan says, "I bet you that J.B. will lose his faith in you if you start tak- ing away everything he cares about one by one And Cod says, "No he won't! J.B. loves me! I'll prove it" And the con- test has begun. Piece by piece, ev- erything J.B. cares about is taken away from him, and J.Bs faith never falters. He praises God even after his own wife dies. This just burns Satan up, but then Satan always has been a sore loser. So Satan decides to fight brim- stone with fire and talk to J.B. him- self. His argument is something to the effect of, "How can you still praise his name, after everything he has done to you?" J.B. remains steady in his faith, so Satan decides to bring There is nothing more useless than screaming at a wall. It's just spittle and bricks, bricks and spittle. However, if you put enough voices together, that wall might just be blown over. So join in another futile at- tempt to change the status quo and listen to a "Scream at the Wall Jay Myers Lifestyle Editor You see those words above this, you know the spittle and bricks stuff? Never have those words rung more true than about the topic I am going to discuss. Jesse Helms was re- elected. It's almost tempting to just leave it at that, but I can't I swear that this is going to be my last rant about things political in this column (at least for a long while) because I'm sick of the whole process. Now for one final scream at that big wall around the Capi- tol building. How can Jesse Helms be elected again? Sure, I can un- derstand that the old boy net- work will unfortunately al- ways be there to support him. But what about the other members of the public? � How can any woman jus- , tify supporting Helms? Women make up at least half of the voting public, if not more. His stance on women's issues is that women don't have any issues. Only men's opinions about women matter. He has made the oppression of women one of his goals and yet women still vote for him. Perhaps the women who vote for Helms buy into the tradi- tional role of woman as sup- portive but silent. Since eastern North Caro- lina is the area of the stats that overwhelming votes for Helms and continues to keep him in office, then a number of you out there reading this See SCREAM page 5 in the heavy artillery. "Do you know what He is going to do next?" Satan asks. J.B who by this point has lost even his good- health and is in ago- nizing pain as his skin literally boils off his frame, is too weak to fight. He listens as Satan explains that af- ter all J.B. has gone through, when it is all said and done, God plans to give him everything back. And J.B. realizes that if he gets it all back, he could go through this hell on earth again and again and never know why. I've always found the Book of Job to be one of the more interest- ing sections of the Bible, for several reasons. To begin with, I wonder at Job's unwavering devotion to God.

Cellar showcases new, young talent Andy Turner Staff Writer Derek T. Hall Senior Writer Greenville has seen it's share of talent The only problem is that the only talent we hear about are the boys with the record deal, the lights, the stage, the crew, the whole shebang. We never hear about the future or when a new artist pops up on the scene. To us, he or she is just making their debut, a debut they've been working on for a couple of years per- haps. Nick C, an ECU student from Maryland, has been playing at the Cellar since he made his debut in Greenville two years ago. The man is working hard and is drawing a good crowd. Saturday night, the Cellar was packed. Friendsjamily and strangers gathered around to hear the young prophet work his charm. Nick started around 11 p.m. and went off into an array of Pink Floyd tunes. He also wasn't afraid to plug a few songs written by his present project the band Treading Evans. It has been rumored that the band will perform at the Cellar sometime next semester. This would make the first time a band performed at the Cellar on the live dance stage. As the night wore on and the See LIVE page7 "l am an artist; 1 am not a spe- cialist Hanna Jubran explained to a crowd gathered for the opening reception to the ECU art instructor's sculpture and wall re- lief exhibition at the Mendenhall Student Center Gallery. "There are no boundaries for me - why should I make bound- aries?" Jubran continued. His stance against boundaries seems to fit well with his past; Jubran studied technical engineer- ing as a high school student in Is- rael, yet became an artist. The time spent studying tech- nical engineering was not wasted, however, Jubran insisted. "This helped me later on as an artist by refining my techniques he said. Jubran is in his third year at ECU, serving as an associate gradu- ate faculty member in the School of Art. He received his BFA and MFA from the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. His artwork has recently ap- peared as part of the First Interna- tional Iron Sculpture Exhibition at the Ed Vilde Museum. Tallin, Esto- nia; also at the Toyamura Interna- tional Sculpture Biennial in Hokkaido, Japan; and at the Henri Art Gallery in Washington, D.C. Jubran's current exhibition, sponsored by the Student Union Vi- sual Arts Committee, is slated to run through the end of November. It consists of seven sculptures and 11 wall reliefs. The wail reliefs, completed be- fore Jubran came to ECU, reflect the landscape of his native Israel. He di- vided the wall reliefs into three ar- eas: Jerusalem, Jish and Upper Gali- lee. The wall reliefs are done from the perspective of an aerial view, capturing the mountainous, hilly landscape of Israel. Jubran said he had never real- ized how much the physical land- scape of Israel had affected his work until he came to the United States. "I had to leave home to find out about myself, about my ideas he said. All of the wall reliefs have been cast in bronze with various chemi- cal oxides applied over the bronze to represent water and land charac- teristics. Jubran said it normally took him approximately two weeks, work- ing every day, to complete a wall; relief. He strives, he added, to make each piece not only visually appeal- ing but also pleasing to touch.

The plot in which a man decides to put a ransom on his son's kidnapper rather than pay the kidnapper the ransom he asked for, seemed like a generic TV movie-of-the- week story to me. Yet the names attached to the project gave me hope that this tired and overplayed storytelling cliche would be turned on its ear. Mel Gibson was won- derful in Braveheart, Delroy Lindo es- tablished the strength of his acting in dockers, Gary Sinise has proved to be a consummate performer in films like Forrest Gump and Apollo 13, and Rene Russo was splendid in Get Shorty.

The majority of mu- sicians play themselves out, retread- ing familiar roads, becoming cari catures of themselves with each al- bum. And then there is Mazzy Star. You couldn't really say that the band has changed their sound much in the past three albums, but then again, maybe they have. On the surface, Among My Swan seems very similar to the group's last record. So Tonight That I Might See. The band continues in their exploration of stripped down acoustic landscapes, but there is something different about Among My Swan, some quality that begs to be discovered, a difference in mood, or demeanor. Everything about this band is subtle. Hope Sandorval's voice is a soothing instrument, evocative and emotional, moving in colors and shades rather than in sweeping changes. One of the aspects of jazz vocalizing that separates it from See MAZZY page 6 vmwmmm� m�m.mmnm,m�i Tuesday, November 12,1996 The East Carolinian SCREAM from page 5 are probably women who voted for Jesse. If you are, then I beg you to 'write in and make your reasoning clear as to why you made this deci- sion. I truly want to understand where you're coming from. Maybe It will help me deal with the next six years. Many people have tried to as- suage my despair by saying that Jesse will probably die in office this �term. To that I say, Strom Thurmond is 93 years old and he got re-elected. He will be 99 when he gets elected again. If you don't think he'll get elected again, this election he received over 90 per- cent of the vote. If you don't be- lieve he'll live out his term, well it was said that old bastard would die six years ago when he was 87. They said it 12 years ago when he was 81. I think Jesse's only in his 70s. That could mean 20 more years of Helms. That's 20 more years of racism, sexis.n and almost fascistic nation- alism to come. When President Carter, a true hero of mine and a great humanitarian, came to Green- ville last Monday to speak in sup- port of Harvey Gantt, he reminded us of just what a determined idiot Helms is. (And Carter should know since his grandmother's name was Helms and she was from North Carolina. Yes, Helms is Carter's fourth cousin.) Helms is the one man who sup- ported the continuation of apart- heid in South Africa. Helms is the one man who supported Pinochet and his death squads. Helms is the one man who has tried to block ev- ery peace treaty that America has ever negotiated - that includes treaties initiated by both Demo- cratic and Republican presidents. Helms is all about Helms and nothing else. He is exclusionary to the point of being ridiculous. He's also the head of the Sen- ate Foreign Relations committee. A major function of this position is that Helms serves as a representa- tive of the U.S. when dealing with foreign nationals. I mean, come on! It doesn't take a genius to figure out that Helms hates foreigners. And he's one of our top represen- tatives? What kind of message does this send to the world? I hope I live to see the day that Helms leaves office. But if things continue as they have been most of my life (Helms has been in of- fice for 24 years and will be in it for another six), then I will prob- ably never see this country free of Jesse's control. It makes me sick. I've screamed so much my throat is sore. MAZZY from page 5 rock singing is the fact that jazz relies on subtlety, on the color of jsound. , Although Sandorval sings in a manner that has nothing to do with jazz, her voice has that same abil- ity, the sensitivity to minute changes of meaning and mood. The notes roll from her lips and slide i,nto existence, bringing quiet spir- its into being, offering up the winds of human emotion to be weighed and pondered by all who absorb them. Although David Roback is still writing simple music, he, like Sandorval, has the ability to draw the listener into his private world, where the chord progressions mat- ter not, where the arrangements are indeed simple, but no more simple than the provoking string ar- rangements that George Martin once provided for a four-piece rock outfit form Liverpool, England. (Perhaps you've heard of them ) Simplicity is the key here. It is the word of the day, and Roback shows his talent to be superior by the fact that he can evoke emotions without relying on guitar acrobat- ics. Roback creates the perfect sonic environment for Sandorval's vocals, not only with ethereal gui- tar but on piano and violin as well. The songs are, for all their sim- plicity, superbly written. Sadly, Mazzy Star prefers not to print their lyrics, which makes it hard to digest them in a short time. But perhaps that was exactly the way they wanted it - to have us come and live in their musical kingdom before revealing all their secrets to us. The album opens up with a driving number that sounds noth- ing like "Fade into You the band's hit from their previous album. "Dis- appear" is more moody and sad, as if there were an element of coun- try music in the vein of Emmylou Harris sneaking in. But all of the songs are not somber. Some are playful and some actually start to jam out, in their own relaxed way. For the most part, the songs are calm and solid, similar in this re- gard to the Sundays and the Inno- cence Mission. "Flowers in December" is very rootsy, again, like some country- folk or Cowboy Junkies tune. "Rhymes of an Hour" is dark and introspective; the echo effect on the guitar and the slow march of the sparse percussion shows Roback has listened to the Velvet Under- ground. The slow soaring guitar solo that closes "Rosebud" is grip- ping and siren-like. There is no mistaking the pe- culiar quality that makes this band stand out. The fact that they can make a powerful emotional experi- ence out of nothing more than an acoustic guitar and Sandorval's voice ("All Your Sisters") is no small achievement. Many before them have tried, tried and failed. Among My Swan sounds rainy, like the music best suited for a chilly overcast morning, best spent, per- haps, listening to such music and drinking a cup of coffee, wrapped in a blanket, sitting on the porch swing, watching the downpour. Maybe this is why many of the photos in the cover art feature Hope Sandorval and an umbrella. She has been standing in the rain, and this is how she feels about it; these are her raindrops, collected here for us to savor. Or maybe she is inviting us to come into the rain and walk with her. Maybe she is letting the chilled air surround us and the pre- cipitation sing to us in its own sweet, percussive way.

But for a human being to retain that faith in the face of infinite hardship is unbe- lievable. The second reason I find the Book of Job so fascinating is the cru- elty exhibited, not by Satan but by God. I wonder why God feels the need to justify himself to Satan in the first place? Job asks God to explain why he is being punished - begs, in fact He feels that if he just understood where he went wrong, if he just knew what offense he was guilty of, then he could keep his faith. But God re- fuses to answer. God has to destroy Job's life to prove a point to Satan, but he doesn't owe anything to his greatest follower. Maybe I've got the wrong idea, but I always figured that God should just be the bigger person and tell Satan to go jump off a bridge. I also won- der why God would further punish Job by giving him everything back just so he can relive this personal hell? The way I see it, I'd rather not have such strong faith in God just so that I don't draw attention to myself. If Job hadn't been God's biggest fan, he never would have gone through all this. My religious beliefs aside, though, I can not wait to see this show.

The Ford film is every bit as melodramatic and full of cliches as the current one. For the '50s, this kind of film may have worked. No one in main- stream Hollywood was concerned with the plight of the common man, nor did they believe that their audience would be. It was much more interesting to watch the trials and tribulations of a bunch of whiny, rich white folk. However, in the '90s this sentiment doesn't translate well at all. It is hard to care for a man who may be a felon. In the new film, Gibson's character is be- ing investigated by the FBI for possible mafia payoffs he may have made. He is worth millions of dollars and he uses his money to pay his way out of every prob- lem that comes his way. He seems so far removed from society that it is exceed- ingly difficult for the audience to iden- tify with him. This is a serious problem because Gibson is the driving force and his screen presence overwhelms all of the actors involved, much to the detriment of the film. If your hero is a money and power hungry scumbag, then who are you go- ing to root for? Interesting dilemmas like this are never even approached in the film. Ap- parently the answer to that question, as far as Howard is concerned, is that you root for the scumbag. Because this stance is so unbelievable, it automatically less- ens the film's impact Again, the film follows the typical (and always disappointing) Hollywood formula for a thriller, step by agonizing step. Gibson and the rest of the cast look as though they are sleep-walking through their lines and any emotional content they may have given to their perfor- mances is ruined because it feels as if they're reading off of cue cards most of the time. For instance, Russo's talent is com- pletely wasted. She might as well not even appear in the film because she simply acts as a pretty piece of window dress- ing who is only shown screaming, cry- ing and looking disheveled. Lindo is com- pletely passive and even goes so far as to compromise his status as an FBI agent X Takc-lt-Away Post Game Points Sale!

And I haven't even talked about the bad guys yet Here's where we get one of the strongest clues that this may indeed be a less than perfect film - Donnie Wahlberg plays one of the kidnappers in the film. Yes, that Donnie Wahlberg former New Kid on the Block and the older brother of "Marky Mark" Wahlberg the rapper turned film star. This should be a screaming wake-up call for all you possible viewers out there that this film has a large potential to suck. Even Sinise, who plays a police of- ficer who is heavily involved with the case, comes off as shallow and petty when he throws angry temper tantrums. All in all, every bit of talent that is involved in this film (and which cost TouchstonS Pictures a fortune to solidify) is com- pletely wasted. It is a disappointing shame. The only thing that saved the film when I saw it, the only reason it got the "See It For Free" rating was the audi- ence at Hendrix Theatre. Our student audience is always a hitor-miss situation. If a really good film is playing, the lacka- daisical attitude and juvenile response to the movie almost always ruins it On the other hand though, if an overly cheesy film (like Ransom) is being viewed, then the jokes and applause and cat-calls can add a needed bit of ambi- ance to the movie. So, if you really want to see this movie, do yourself a favor and wait until it returns to Hendrix next year (which it surely will) and see it for free. Please don't waste any money on it -LI V J)Ei from page 5 drinks soaked onto my elusive mind, I began to notice just how well the crowd related to the music they were hearing. Nick has a real talent He doesn't just play the covers that any- one may want to hear in a bar, he also plays the songs with a different atti- tude. Candles burned, the cigarette smoke filled the room, and the soul refused to let go. Someone else needed to hear him scream. Fans crowded the small stage to once again push him into another break, another breather. It was also rumored that Brandon Tate and the rest of the Clessuras family were on hand that evening. I also heard a fan say dis- tinctly that she had driven all the wajj from Ohio to catch the show. That's impressive. The fans seem to been just as driven by the music as the artist was by playing it When the night came to a close; everything in the dub was a mess. It wasn't only Nick, 'twas also the ex- cessive hip dancers falling in and out of place in the other room. To many, the room Nick played in at the Cellar may be looked at as "the other room. Well that "other room" is exactly what has earned Nick C. the respect that he is gaining in this small town called Greenville. "It's always more exciting to play when the room is packed. I had a good, time said Nick C. as he proceeded to pack up and get out before the massive amount of butt shakers; poured in from the dance floor in the real "other room If I can say anything about art- ists like Nick C, it is that they are few, and far between. Artists like these are! the strongest They're hungry and are looking for a break. Respectfully said Nick C, with his band Treading Evans is up for a break in the near future. HANNA frompage5 plained, he likes to experiment with structure and elements, combining, for example, bronze and marble in a sculpture. His sculptures often show two distinct forms interacting. "There is a dialogue going on between each piece Jubran said. He also enjoys altering the per- ception of a sculpture by making the piece appear totally different from one side to the other. "I want to bring an element of surprise to the viewer he added. Jubran's exhibition is the last one scheduled this semester for the Mendenhall Student Gallery. Com- ing up next semester: Works in Glass by Art Haney (Jan. 6 to Jan. 24), the 21st annual ILLUMINA Stu- dent Art Competition and Exhibi- tion (Jan. 27 to Feb. 23) and Sacred Space: Photographs from the Mis- sissippi Delta (Feb. 28 to March 28).

Wednesday night, ECU laced up for their first exhibition game against Croatia, posting a 60-50 win. Vanderbilt transfer. Jen Cox, who had to sit out last year after transfer- ring, scored a team high 14 points. Cox said she was glad to be playing again, and that thu is a whole new beginning for her. "I had forgotten how it feels to play Cox said. "I've forgotten my first two years. This is a totally different season. I have more confidence in myself. It's a new start for me basi- cally Coach Anne Donovan, who be- gins her second season as head coach, was basically pleased for their first organized game of the season. "I was pleased for the first time out Donovan said. "We played all 11 people we dressed and they all con- tributed. Hopefully it gave us a chance to get over the jitters Senior Shay Hayes recently had back surgery and is expected to be red-shirted this season. Junior college transfer Ashanta Sellers did not dress due to a hip injury. ECU jumped out early and took a 10-2 lead off a Cox jumper. Croatia was sluggish in the first half. ECU took a 10 point lead with a Nicole Mamula jumper and then ECU ex- tended the lead by 12 points, 25-13, with another Cox turnaround jumper.

ECU won thier first exhibition game 60-50. Croatia bounced back and at the half ECU only led by 27-25. Cox led the scoring drive with six points, while Laurie Ashenfelder and Nicole Mamula added four in the first half. Donovan said that defensively, a lot of improvements need to be made. "We wanted a good effort on de- fense and I don't think we got it Donovan said. Croatia took their first lead, 30- 29 at the start of the second half, but Justine Allpress silenced their scoring drive with three straight three-point- ers. That allowed ECU to go ahead 38-30. From that point, it was neck-to- neck and with 10:35 left in the game, the Lady Pirates found themselves down by one. But that would be the last time they were down. ECU pulled ahead and didn't look back, winning 60-50. Offensively Donovan got what she was looking for. "We were looking for offensive balance tonight and we got it We have a lot of people who can put the ball into the hole Donovan said. Cox ended the game with 14 points, Allpress added 13, Mamula added 11 and Tracey Kelley banged in nine2076. The Lady Pirates had another exhibition game last night, but at press time the results were not available. Their first game of the regular season will be Nov. 23 when they travel to Appalachian State. No one said it was going to be easy. With ECU'S quarterback Marcus Crandell out with a sprained left medial collateral, backup Dan Gonzalez got the start- ing nod from Coach Steve Logan. Despite posting impressive numbers for the juniors first start, the Pirates still fell short to Vir- ginia Tech, 35-14, in front of an al- most sold out crowd. Gonzalez completed 17 of 35 passes for 258 yards including two touchdowns and three intercep- tions. He said he was happy to get his first start despite the loss. "I've been waiting too long for this chance Gonzalez said. "I'm disappointed with the outcome, but I'm glad I finally got the chance The defense struggled through- out the night allowing the Hokies to rack up 591 total yards. Line- backer B.J. Crane said no excuses should be made about the game. ECU kept the game close with the Hokies posting the first points in the second quarter to go ahead 7-0. Eight minutes later VT scored again and the Pi- rates found themselves down by two touchdowns. But the Pirates had an answer. Gonzalez connected with Larry Shannon for a 74-yard touchdown reception with less than a minute left in the first half. That gave Sh- annon 17 career touchdown recep- tions which ties him for the school's all-time record set by Clayton Driver. "I'm disappointed with the outcome, but I'm glad I finally got the chance � Dan Gonzalez, backup quarterback down again only by seven. That would be the last time ECU would score. Tech came up with two more touchdowns and ended the game with a 21 point fa- vor. Logan said this is the best team his team has played all season. "Virginia Tech is the best team that we've played probably in two years Logan said. "I kind of felt that way coming in and they proved it tonight Logan also gave credit to the Hokies' defense. "Their defense made the plays. See TECH page 9 PLAYER FG-FGA REBOUNDS POINTS Taking it to the basket! Jen Cox6-15314 Justine Allpress5-10613 Nicole Mamula4-8311 Tracey Kelley3-9139 Heartbreaking loss for women's soccer Mike Daniska Staff Writer The 1996 ECU women's soccer season ended Wednesday night at the CAA tournament held in Wilmington. The Lady Pirates lost in penalty kicks after playing UNC- Wilmington to a 0-0 tie in regula- tion. "It was a heartfelt loss, we should have won freshman full- back Shana Woodward said. "We felt like we dominated the whole game. we just couldn't get anything in the net The Lady Pirates outshot their UNC-Wilmington counterparts 20-6, but couldn't convert scoring oppor- tunities. The loss capped off a 7-11- 2 season and a ninth place finish in the CAA. The UNC-Wilmington game was a reflection of the regu- lar season. "We really played hard and ag- gressive, but we weren't really able to capitalize on it third year coach Neil Roberts said. "We were up Don't sometimes and down others, but we've improved a great deal The Lady Pirates' record was impressive though, considering that 18 of the 26 players and nine of the 11 tournament starters were freshmen. The team also had to overcome numerous injuries, including five ankle sprains, leading to many sub- stitutions throughout the games. One in particular was an injury to one of the top players, mid-fielder Courtney Jurchich, a junior trans- fer from N.C. State. Some of the standout perform- ers throughout the injury plagued season were freshmen Jill Davis, Dana Durbin, Amy Horton and unior forward Stacie Cause, who set school records for goals and points. Two of the team's more impres- sive games were a 1-0 victory at Georgetown and when they beat in- state rival UNC-Wilmington. The turning point of the season, how- ever, was a loss to James Madison. "We lost to JMU, but it was a great battle Durbin said. "After the JMU game, we felt like we came to- gether Despite ending the season with a loss, the team remains optimistic. "This year is like a rebirth of soccer, overall a definite positive Roberts said. " We are extremely excited about the direction of the program. Women's soccer is the fast- est growing sport in the NCAA for women, and this is only its third year here at ECU "We all came together in the tournament game. We played for pride Woodward said. "This sea- son was a lot better than last year's and we can do nothing but improve One sign of improvement was that Team Captain Stacie Cause was named to the all-conference team. "Our goals for the future are to be competitive and improve our standings in the CAA Roberts said. With a team so young and tal- ented, only experience can produce winners. If they can overcome the nagging injuries they had this year, the next few seasons should be quite Productive for these Lady Pirates.

Medows led with 19 points in the win. ECU'S SPORTS INFORMATION DEPARTMENT The volleyball game against UNC-W originally scheduled for last night will be played tonight at 7 p.m. The game will be played in Minges Coliseum and is free to students.

The men's tennis team completed fall play this weekend. Roope Kalajo and Kenny Kirhy both lost their first round matches in the Rolex Region II Indoor Championships. The singles and doubles champions from each region qualify for the Rolex National Indoor Championships, held later this fall. UNC's Tripp Phillips, seeded seventh, defeated Kalajo 7-6 (4), 5-7,6-1.

They knocked a pass down or got pressure on the passer. It wasn't anything more than good play on their part Logan said. Defensively, Crane came u big for the Pirates. Saturday was Crane's birthday and he had hoped to be celebrating a win with the birthday cake, but that didn't hap- pen. However, he did record 10 tackles and recovered a fumble for the Pirates. But Crane was disappointed in the way the defense allowed Tech to score five times. "Yes, we did take the ball away, but they put 35 points on the board Crane said. "The offense has no control over the other team scoring All last week in practice, Gonzalez was practicing in antici- pation of playing against the I: I BUY UNO APPETIZER 1 GET UNO FREE!

Logan said they didn't re- ally change the game plan because Gonzalez is capable of running the offense. "We didn't scale the game plan back any Logan said. "We just called the regular offense and Danny understood what was going on. I thought Danny played very well. He threw the ball beautifully Scott Harley broke into the record books as only the ninth player in ECU history to record 1,000 rushing yards in one season. Harley rushed for just 54 yards on Saturday, but that was good enough to put him at 1,044 for the season with three games left in the season. Currently Harley ranks eighth in the nation in rushing.
