Some details of the second part of Pnde Week are soil being finalised and will be posted on B-GLAD's webs aihttpwwwl.eeu.edugroups7bgladbglad.html as details are known. Tuesday will feature Michael Armentrout ot the Human Rights Campaign who will speak about issues of same-sex marriage in Hawaii and congressional efforts to ban discrimination in employment. Armentrout will speak at 7:30pm in a location to be announced. Pride Week will culminate with the National Day of Silence, Wednesday, April 9. Approximately 90 schools will be participating in the Day of Silence, a program started by the LGBU at the University of Virginia. On this day, participants pledge not to speak from 8am until 5pm in recognition and protest of the silence imposed upon gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and the transgendered. Participants wear a sticker indicating that they are participating in the event, carry around cards explaining their reasons for being silent, and give these cards to people to whom they would normally speak. Other individuals or groups wishing to participate in the day of silence are encouraged to contact BGLAD at 328-6149 or vcbglad@ecuvrn.cis.ecu.edu in order to receive information and materials for participa- �on. , . Speakers at B-GLAD functions should not be implied at speaking for B-GLAD ECU or representing any stands the organization may or may not take. They are provided as informational speakers to educate the ECU community on issues currently facing the gay, lesbian, bisexual, andor transgender communities at large.

There are several services already available on this site, with others in development. According to John Snowden of Computing and InformaiionSystems, there are two kinds of services avail- able on this site�public which anyone can access, and secured information, which require a student ID and pass- word. The public information which students can access includes course schedules, html guide, job listings and on- line course syllabi. . The function which may be most useful at this time ot year is course schedules, which .shows up to date informa- tion on how many seats are left in a class. This data is cor- rected almost instantly each time someone registers for a class and takes another seat. "It's as clc� to instantaneous as you can get, Snowden said. l Students are also able to see which teachers are teach ing each section of a course. "It always gives the instructor's name, so if you have a preference, you can plan around that Snowden said. In addition to these public services, students can also get information on themselves. "We do offer secure services, where students can get personal information Snowden said. In order to access information from their own records, students have to apply for a Personal Identification Number (PIN) using an on-line form. After choosing a PIN, they are sent an e-mail containing an activation code, which must be used before the PIN can be ualized to obtain personal information. This procedure insures that a student's records remain confidential. Snowuen said one of the features which may prove most beneficial to students during registration time is being able to check their records for hold tags, such as library fees or parking rickets, which could prevent them from registering. , . Other services which may be available in the future are grade postings, advisor information, student directories, and financial aid information. Other possibilities include conducting SGA elections and student surveys on-line. Soon students and professors will be able to make their own home pages. They will be able to use this page for their departments or organizations. "Hopefully, at some time in the future, youll even be able to register on the Web Snowden said. Snowden said that the main purpose behind this web page is to make things easier for students and to make stu- dent records aviailbte to students at all times. Many students have not heard about this web page. It would be very beneficial for students to find out more about it. They are still looking for different things they can add to there web page. They would like some input from students on what they would like to have in the This site can be reached at http:indexecu.crfuser- vices.html. An e-mail address is required before applying for a PIN to access personal information.

Wearing blue jeans does not imply that one is gay, lesbian, or bisexual, but instead that Ire or she does not believe that discrimination is right. Blue jeans have been traditionally used because they are an article of clothing that most anyone would have and are plainly visible. That same evening, during B-GLAD's regular meeting time they will host two speakers, Kate Clemm, speaking on bisexual issues, and M.K. Cullen speaking on ensrato amend the crimes against nature (CAN) laws in the NC General Assembly. The meeting will be held at 7:30 pm in room 244 of Mendenhall Student Center.

New sophomore survey seeks to improve academics, campus environment McVeigh trial gets underway DENVER (AP) - Timothy McVeigh's trial began in a barricaded federal court- house today, nearly two years after a ter- rorist bombing at the Oklahoma City federal building killed 168 people and shattered thousands of lives.

About 75 members of the news media filled a section of the court- house plaza and federal police patrolled the area around the cour- thouse. A protest area that had been set up across the street, just outside the 19th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, was empty. McVeigh, who authorities say went from model soldier to a hate- ful, paranoid loner, faces the death penalty if convicted of murder and conspiracy in the April 19, 1995, bombing that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more. Co- defendant Terry Nichols will be tried separately, after McVeigh. Jury selection was expected to take about two weeks, with prospective jurors questioned indi- vidually before U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch and lawyers for both sides. After the field is reduced to 64 people who have agreed to consider the death penalty as a punishment, each side may dismiss 20 without giving a reason. In the questioning, defense lawyer Stephen Jones was expect- ed to focus on the purported con- fessions of his client in stories by The Dallas Morning News and Playboy magazine. Security was tight around the courthouse, two days after McVeigh was whisked into the building where he will be kept in a holding cell normally reserved for white collar criminals. For many, the suspects' identi- ties have made rhc horror of the bombing that much worse. McVeigh and Nichols are small- town Americans - not the sinister foreign terrorists some initially sus- pected. McVeigh, a tall, slender 28- year-old from a family that can trace its history back to 19th-cen- tury Irish immigrants, served with distinction in the Gulf War after growing up in working-class Pendlcton, N.Y. Lead prosecutor Joseph Hartzler intends to link McVeigh to bomb-making materials and a yellow Ryder rental truck used in the explosion. Led by Jones, the defense will attack the integrity of the evi- dence, focusing on troubles in the FBI crime lab. On Sunday, former FBI deputy director Weldon Kennedy said he wasn't concerned about such claims. Lucky student to receive semester's tuition LAURA WISER CONTRHUTING WHITES One sophomore will win a free semester at ECU � Wryty completing a questionnaire and haying a little bit of luck. The questionnaires are being distributed by the plan- ning and institutional research department on campus. The experimental survey is targeted to allow students a chance to express their opinions in areas concerning aca- demic and career assistance, university services and cam- pus environment. � "We want to know what the students think, said Robert J. Thompson, director of planning and institution- al research. "It (the survey) helps us define what students want . . . Although alumni and seniors have been completing similar questionnaires for several years, the North Carolina University administration has decided to target a different audience in hopes of alleviating the students' frustration with the current system. The survey will consist of a long form, a short torm (which will be mailed to the student's permanent mailing address) or a telephone survey that provides a rating sys- tem ranging from excellent to poor. A section for written comments and suggestions will also be provided with the forms. According to past survey reports, problems with regis- tration and an overall dissatisfaction with ECU campus services have been the most common complaints. The present registration process, the tag on a student's record for a fine or fee, the complications in receiving financial aid checks and the lack of a service oriented atmosphere were at the top of the list. "Change can't occur as often as one wants, but (these surveys) help us identify the problems and set priorities Thompson said. Tb illustrate his point, he referred to the on-line regis- tration project which is expected to pilot in the fi,H- The current university phone system required a fiber- optic "make-over" in order to handle the capacity of an on-line registration system. The plans include a voice activated system which will allow the students the convenience of registering over the phone or at designated computer terminals around cam- pus. This technological process has met mixed reviews at other universities. While it is helpful in eliminating long lines and the "run-around" associated with student tags and special Dermisskm signatures for certain classes, it is not without fault. Complaints include busy telephone lines and complications is sharing the one phone in each dormitory room. " Another change which has been implemented due to survey responses is the electronic transfer of financial aid checks for students. This process will enable students to receive the bal- ance of their financial aid check faster and also eliminate the unnecessary but familiar lines in front of the Spillman Building. But, according to Thompson, responses arc not limned to campus services. Faculty members are also made aware of suggestions or complaints that could help improve a department's current academic criteria. Thompson said a lot of positive things are happening at ECU and he would like to continue the trend. Thompson is hoping for a large response, but he real- izes the students are now facing fail registration, finals, projects and spring fever and he understands filling our a questionnaire is not a priority. Because the student's input is important to the btu administration, Thompson is offering several incentives to help encourage students to participate. A drawing will be held at the conclusion of the survey The grand prize winner will receive one free semester (in- state tuition and fees) for either the fall or the Spring. Ten other lucky students will receive a $50 declining bal- To be eligible for the survey, a student must be an ECU sophomore who has completed between 45-60 hours or a transfer student who has completed 30 hours at ECU. Thompson also advised students to double check their student ID number on the questionnaire before returning the survcv and make sure all the circles have been filled in correctly If a number is missed or incorrect, the student will not b. qualified to enter the drawing. The results of the survey will be published in The East Carolinian next fall. For further information concerning the survey, t! ase look for flyers posted across campus. ' 3 TuMday.

He was indicted earlier this month on more serious charges of spy- ing. A hearing was set for May 30 with trial set for July 14. Kim 57, could face life in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted. The indictment said Kim, a civilian employee with the Office of Naval Intelligence, gave a South Korean representative seven defense documents. Six of the documents were classified "secret" and one was "confidential it " ' The indictment said he had access to classified material as the technical management officer for a joint Navy-Coast Guard computer system that enabled various U.S. agencies to share maritime information. Investigators have said that over a nine-month period, Kim gave the South Koreans military information about China and North Korea and infor- mation about a computer sale to South Korea. Mother charged in death of 5-year-old son NEW YORK (AP) - Five-year-old Daytwon Bennett wasn't around when a city social worker visited his home earlier this month, and his mother was ordered to make sure he was there for a scheduled visit today. But Daytwon died over the weekend, a victim of starvation and repeated beatings, officials said. His mother was charged with murder. The boy died of heart failure brought on by malnutrition, said Nicholas Scopetta, commissioner of the city's children's services administration. He said the agency will investigate its handling of the case. Daytwon's mother, 27-year-old Jocelyn Bennett, on Saturday rushed her son to a Bronx hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. An autopsy showed Daytwon had been starved and beaten, with injuries to his head, torso, arms, legs and spine that were in various stages of healing, said Ellen Borakove, spokeswoman for the city medical examiner's office.

A 1994 papal trip to Sarajevo during the Bosnian war had to be canceled over fears of attacks on crowds gathered to see John Paul. This time, the pope will hold an outdoor Mass for Catholics and meet with Muslim and Orthodox Serb representatives during his April 12-13 trip. Help to reunite Bosnia is needed: Bosnian Serb leaders openly seek unity with Serbia and relations between the Muslims and Croats who are sup- posed to run the other half of Bosnia together are at a new low. Bosnian President Alija Izctbegovic told President Clinton just last week that NATO troops monitoring the peace can leave next year as scheduled onlv if war criminals are caught and refugees are allowed to return hone. Otherwise, he indicated, new war is a very real possibility. across campuses UNC Fraternity house begins reconstruction Hopes are high as plans for the reconstruction of the Phi Gamma Delta fra- ternity gets underway. Mondav the Chapel Hill Town Council approved a request for expedited review of a Special Use Permit Application to reconstruct the house which was destroved May 12 in a fire that killed five people. Phi Gamma Delta President Garrett Perdue said plans to build the house are already underway. The new house will be located on Cameron Street, where the old house now sits. Perdue said the new house would be rebuilt from the existing structure. The porches will be closed in, and a terrace will be added to the rear of the Before the May fire. Phi Gamma Delta alumni had been formulating plans to remodel the existing house said Ron Binder, director of Greek Affairs. . . , Garrett said the alumni already have some money; but they do not have insurance money yet. The new house is scheduled to contain state of the art fire safety features and technology including an elevator, computer hook-ups in every room and new internal wiring that will allow for further technological advances, Binder said. University of Tennessee students frightened by sexual assaults Knoxville has been terrified by a series of sexual assaults in the last month and UT students are warned to stay on the lookout. According to Knoxville Police Department reports, three sexual assaults have occurred recently in the Fort SaundersSouth Knoxville area. So far, none of the incidents have occurred on UT property. According to officer Foster Arnett, the KPD does not have a particular suspect in mind. All the incidents occurred very early in the morning, all three victims' eyes were covered and the perpetrator(s) entered through the doors or windows. In spite of that, the UTPD has put out flyers warning students of these occurrences, urging them to take extra precautions. NC State University bans halogen lamps A number of recent fires has led University Housing to ban a popular brand of halogen lamps. The lamps, called torchiere lights, have been responsible for three tires this semester and five since the beginning of last year, according to University Housing Director Tim Luckadoo. The torchiere lights rest on top of a pole and project light upward onto the ceiling. They are becoming increasingly popular among N.C. State stu- Trie torchiere lights are hotter than other lamps and, because of that, are more likely to cause fires, Luckadoo said. The torchiere lights also tend to tip over easily because thev are top-heavy, he said. Luckadoo said the risk the torchiere lights present to residents and resi- dence halls necessitated a swift ban. LAickadoo said he would rather not ban the lamps. However, he said, the recent fires left him with no choice other than the ban.

Duke researchers consider using expertise to start bio-business DURHAM (AP) - Duke Univenity Medical Center officials are considering a move to take their genetic-research expertise and turn it into big bucks. After establishing a noted reputation in the field of genetic research, scientists and administrators arc now consider- ing whether to use their knowledge to build a biotechnology company owned, at least in part, by the medical center. Duke scientists have already been instrumental in discoveries linking specific genes to diseases such as Alzheimer's and breast cancer. The scientists envision a company as a high-priced genetic-research firm that can raise more money to help further even more research. Private industry, such as pharmaceutical firms, would pay the company to hunt for genes that could play a role in spe- cific diseases, said Allen Roses director of Duke's Joseph and Kathleen Bryan Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. "We have something called know-how said Roses, who also oversees Dukes Center for Human Genetics. "What we ; don't have is the financial resources to spread this to other diseases Even with $180 million in reserves and investments, Duke can't bankroll the lengthy and costly search for the many genes possibly linked to a wide array of major diseases. Some of the target diseases include coronary artery disease, " osteoarthritis, lung cancer, late-onset breast cancer and prostate cancer, Roses said. The way the company would fund itself is big companies would subscribe for the information concerning certain dis- r eases they are interested in he said. The company's future is tied up in whether Duke can find a business partner willing to invest in starting the compa- 1 ny. While the medical center's chief financial officer said the company isn't a sure bet, Roses already has given it a name: Cerberus. The name is related to the important role genes play in disease and how a person's genetic information needs to be n protected. In Greek mythology, Cerberus was the three-headed dog guarding the entrance of Hades. J Roses, the Duke neurologist who led the research team that discovered a gene linked to Alzheimer's disease, said Duke probably would "own a big part" of the company The company, in turn, would be the patent-holder of any genetic discoveries. It then would license the discoveries to industry to develop the findings into commercial applications such as diagnostic or therapeutic products. Duke officials say nothing has been worked out with any potential investors, but a decision will be made by the end of the year on whether to pursue the idea. Researchers like Roses say the potential for genetic-based research is endless. If the biotech company can isolate and identify genes linked to certain diseases, patients carrying those genes, or genetic variants, could be warned to 3tay away from behaviors thai would place them at higher risk of developing the dis- Sease, Roses said. Rx instance, if researchers can identify a gene linked to lung cancer, that would mean someone with the gene ss at � higher risk of developing the disease and thus should avoid certain behavior, such as smoking, that could turn on a genet- ic switch for the disease. "We may be able to pick out people who are susceptible to environmental influences Roses said.

Ever wondered why that A paper you took from your frat brother, pulled from "the file" or bought off the Internet earned you a C when you handed it in? Whether a student cheats or plagiarizes is one thing. Whether or not that paper reflects a stu- dent's style is another. When a student chooses to cheat or plagiarize, they forfeit their right to free speech, their right to express themselves. Teachers do grade differently. An A paper to one teacher can be a D paper to another. One teacher may focus on the rhetorical content of the paper, while another may focus solely on the style of the writer. Still another may focus on grammar, yet another may emphasize subject con- tent. Just as clear, concise writing may earn the paper an A in an English class, the same paper turned in for a history class could earn a D because the content isn't there. One thing most teachers have in common is they want to grade students fairly. If they feel a student hasn't put their best work into a paper�or any original work at all� it could mean the difference between that C and D. Remember, papers are a way to demonstrate what you, the college student, know. They are your way to express yourself�no matter how stuffy the format or subject matter gets. Teachers are looking for a personal touch. Students think they know more than the teacher; papers show that. In the days of online cheating and rumored paper files in dorms and Greek houses, it can be easy to cheat. It's rather tempting to cheat when you have to decide whether to go to the library or a party. It's tempting when Mom and Dad aren't going to come in your room and look over your shoulder. It's tough to sit in front of a computer when it's a sunny day. A few minutes surf- ing the Net and a few dollars later will get you out in the sun sooner, but it can also get you a failing grade for cheating. Try taking the class over again this summer when it's prime tanning time and prime party- ing time because you cheated. Our stance on cheating is simple: Don't do it. Yes, it can cut into party time. Tfes, you actually have to do your own work Yes, you have to go to the library and do research. Yes, you run the risk of missing your favorite TV show. And no, you don't always get an automatic A out of it. But think about these consequences. You give up your right to express your own opinions. You give up the right to learn-and, after all, isn't that why most of us are here? Tfou run the risk of getting kicked out of college. Worse yet, you run the risk of having to face your Mom and Dad. Imagine having to explain to your parents why that party was more impor- tant than actually doing your own work, why you have a really killer tan and a failing grade. TERSTOTHE EDITOR City officials need to address lb the Editor, By now everyone in town is con- cerned about the rash of murders and other crimes that our city is experienc- ing. A recent trend that really needs to be discussed immediately is the vic- timization of students and young peo- ple in our city. There have been sever- al recent articles involving assaults, robberies and burglary attempts in the student areas of our city. I feel that the students and young residents of this town are almost sitting ducks for crim- inals to take advantage of. I also think that it is clear to everyone that city leaders are less responsive to the needs of our younger comrr. unity. That is why I'd like to call on people like Inez Ridley and the Mayor to get it in gear NOW! We need immediate action from the City Council on this new wave of crimes. The best course of action would be for city leaders, local law enforcement and East Carolina University to act now to tighten security to protect our young and to begin an education cam- paign to warn students of the rapidly growing danger to them and their prop- erty. Crime statistics show that the number of burglaries in student areas spike during the summer, spring break, Christmas and fall break. This is prob- ably because the criminal element in this town knows when the students will be away from their belongings. This problem has been neglected for years and now the problem is turning into home invasions and armed rob- bery. If you leave the cheese unpro- tected, the rats will come for it. I am both a student and a member of an area of Inez Ridley's district that didn't get gerrymandered out. I am not very confident that Ms. Ridley will take any action, but something needs to be done soon. I once lived off cam- pus, I became a victim of these crimes, and now I've moved back onto campus out of fear for my safety and belong- ings. Edward J. Agsten Junior Psychology ffc il fU ihW l (tht itot j�U�ri cr��nWW�!t) Jk && tifcl OPINION Gabriel Isaac JOHNSON Coloninrst Aramark's not listening Over that past couple months, I have noticed that upon entering Mendenhali Dining Center, no matter how hungry I thought I was. I lose my appetite. In fact, I have noticed that when I eat on campus, I become depressed. I lose any drive I had to eat anything, I become unmotivated and if it weren't for Tht Simpsons every night at 6:00,1 would probably never get anything done. What is wrong with ECU? Why can't they have decent dining facilities like other state schools? Why do we have to settle for the same four entrees everyday? And if you are vegetarian, like me, it's even more dif- ficult to find foods that make you happy. I mean, at some point, I lost LETTERS TO THE EDITOR interest in salad, pasta and pizza. I will give the staff credit for at least trying to help out with our dining needs. The problem is definitely not the staff, but Aramark. The problem is that Aramark can't hear us. I am just one student at one school of many that Aramark supplies food for, not to mention everything else they supply They could care less whether I get a balanced diet or not, because either way, they are getting the same amount of money. So really, there is no need for them to cater to anyone's needs, whether it's a vegetarian or a carnivore, and we get stuck with the crappy excuse for food they send us. It's depressing, and unfortunately there is little we can do about it. We could just not buy a meal plan next year, but then we are forced to do the unthinkablecook for ourselves. I know that this option just doesn't appeal to many of us because we all know cooking for your- self means heating up some ramen noodles or making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. So much for that idea. The only thing we can do is to complain about it. Whine, ydl, write letters, throw a tantrum in the chan- cellor's office (but you didn't get that idea from me). If enough people are concerned about it, maybe the univer- sity will be forced to look at other options. Time for change in SGA Dear Editor We, as a group, are responding to the "Our View" in Thursday's edition (March 27, 1997) of Tie East CaroSmtm. First of ail, we are not mak- ing any promises that will not be fought for. As you have stated we know what phrases turn students on Well, have you ever stopped to realize how we came up with these phrases? Uhh, maybe the students perhaps! When we decided to run together (Webster, Kaltenschnee, McQueen and Spraker), we sat down and asked ourselves what issues did students want to change, thus constituting our stance on a few specific issues. This is exactly what you talked about in "Our View" of TEC, with regards to a parking deck, 24-hour residence hall visitation and no SGA tuition. You arc absolutely right; some of our ideas are not new. Ruthcrmore, everyone knows we need a parking deck and we need one now, so why don't we have one? This is because no one has gone head-to-head with the administration on this issue. On the idea of the 24-hour com- puter lab, other schools have institut- ed them and they are very beneficial to students. You say you need evi- dence? North Carolina State, UNC- Charlotte and Virginia Commonwealth are universities who have 24 hour computer labs. I guess some of you are financially blessed, because many people have to work and do not have time to utilize the computer labs at "normal" operating hours. Our university has many full- time employees, so what is wrong with instituting job positions so that, for once, students could benefit? Lastly, with regards to SGA tuition, yes the great debate, the most talked about controversy If you have read this page, the "Opinion" page, you will know where we are coming from. First published in TEC was an opinion against the SGA executives receiving free tuition (2-13-97) and then came the letters from students, one on 2-18-97 and another on 2-20- 97. So, as you can see, this is nothing "new" to the student body This past semester, Cliff Webster and James Kaltenschnee wrote a resolution try- ing to get the students' agreement to abolish SGA executives receiving free tuition. It was voted down in the SGA Legislature, and ironically, Lisa Smith (candidate for SGA Treasurer) and Sean McManus (candidate for SGA Vice President) were in support of giving the SGA Executives free tuition. At any rate, when we say we are going to fight for students, that is exactly what we are going to da WE WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AND FIGHT FOR STUDENTS. Oh, by the way, you can attach all our names to this one Cliff Webster, SGA Presidential Candidate James Kaltenschnee, SGA VP Candidate Myeisha McQueen, SGA Treasurer Candidate Kelly Spraker, SGA Secretary Candidate Forbes listens to students To the Editor, It seems that the trend has been to write letters to the editor to accuse the SGA officials of not listening to students, but I'm writing to argue the converse�that students do not make themselves heard. I'm continually appalled by the level of apathy of ECU students in general. I was even more appalled to realize that I was part of the problem. 1 vote in SGA elections, but I have typtcajh done little else�until now. A dear friend of mine, Scott Fbrbes, has convinced me that voting isn't enough, that to be a good citizen of the ECU community required that I be informed and active. Thus, I'm making a concerted effort to be involved in this election, especially on Scott's behalf. Scott Forbes has a sincere interest in ECU as a community. He has spearheaded the effort to write the East Carolina University Creed (You'll hear more about this later) and I'm convinced he can make our communi- ty better. Scott has an uncanny ability to examine a given problem, to step hack and to find a solution that makes sense. He is the consummate pragma- tist. When making decisions. Scott doesn't think, "What does this mean for Scott Forbes?" or "What does this mean for Leah Stash?" but rather, "What makes sense for our communi- ty?" Scott, however, retains that understanding that our community is made up of you and me. By the same token, you and I are obligated, as member of the commu- nity, to make ourselves heard. And when we do, my friend, Scott Rwbes, SGA Presidential Hopeful, will be lis- tening Leah R. Stash Senior Political Science t "Bitter words can have grave consequences.

Burnside is a . case where the libido of a man never dies. "Whiskey and wimmin" ain't been the death of him yet, and by God, he's not gonna quit now. Burnside is back with Mr. Waarti, his follow up to last year's A Ass Potkrt of Whiskey, which featured the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion as his back- ing band. The Explosion, however, is around for only two tracks on Mr, Whard. You might suspect that with Spencer and company's limited par- ticipation Mr. Waard might be a little less hellhound than the last album. That might give you a raise sense of relief, alleviating your concerns that your stereo speakers couldn't handle another Ass tenter. R.L guitarist Kenny Brown and dnimtief CWriC BurniitJc (R.L'sv grandsofi) wilj put the fear back in you on "Snake Drive the album's fourth track. "Snake Drive" also appeared on Ass Pocket, but the version that appears on Mr. Waard Well, let me put it this way, play this song at about three in the morning, crank it and watch as the police invade your house in about two secdnds. Don't fear; you won't get a ticket. The officers will be cast under the spellof the wizard and won't be able to stop shakm their asses. "Snake Drive" explodes, decon- structs, makes up and explodes again. Instead of ending with Spencer yelling, as the song did on Ass Pocket, this new version ends about three minutes later with Burnside tri- umphantly shouting, "Yeah reclaim- ing the song. It's interesting, and perhaps appro- priate, that Mr. Waarti begins and ends with Burnside alone with his gui- tar. "Over the Hill the opening track, and "You Gotta Move" spin tales of judgment day and facing the power of God that would have forced blues devil Robert Johnson, with all the hellhounds on his trail, to repent. These two songs are dark, reflective and damn scary, especially with Burnsidc's piercing guitar wizardry which grabs you by the innards and won't let you loose. But the album is fun as hell, too. More than likely, you'll have to deliver your underwear to the trash after lis- tening to Mr. Waarti. Burnside and his band aim to make you sweat and stink on songs like "Georgia Women "Out on the Road" and "Rollin' and Tumblin The two songs with the Blues Explosion, "Alice Mae" and "Highway 7 are hard driving and intense, perfect for anyone who enjoyed Ass Pocket. On "Georgia Women Burnside informs us, "I don't know, but I've been told Georgia Women sweet jelly roll Burnsidc's songs them- selves arc sweet jelly rolls with an extra helping of his blend of deep blues. You don't have to worry about hating yourself in the morning, because the wizard and his spells won't let you remember. Burnside also appears on the faith- confirming Thr Best of Fat Possum col- lection with two different versions of "Georgia Women" and "Snake Drive At Possum Records, based in Oxford, Mississippi, was started by Matthew Johnson and Robert Palmer, not the Robert Palmer who was addicted to Ele. women in black dresses. This iberts Palmer is a noted blues archivist and author of books such as Derp Blues and Bah, That Was Rock and Roll. Palmer produces all but two of the tracks on the album. The Best of Fat Possum should con- vince anyone who thinks blues is dead or played out that the blues are indeed alive and perfectly willing to kick your ass. All 11 tracks are written by the artists who perform them, and all the songs were recorded within the past few years. That doesn't necessar- ily mean these songs sound like prod- ucts of the "90s.

Some blame multiculturalism for the fragmentation of our educational sys- tem, some see it as privileging minor- ity groups over others, some claim that it is erasing the traditions of our country by being too inclusive, some simply don't understand it. Despite these accusations, multi- culturalism, as a form of academic study and an ideological way of life, makes the world a bigger and better place by striving to promote cultural awareness through openness and fair- ness. For a multiculturalist, the doors of the mind are not shut, allowing only a few elite in, but are instead in an open state where productive dia- logue can take place. And education is the best method for opening those doors. Acknowledging this fact, Dr. Seodial Deena, the coordinator of the multicultural literature concentration in ECU's English department, will present two talks on campus that exemplify the eclecticism of multi- culturalism. Both talks are guaranteed to educate his audience and clearly illustrate the complexity of his chosen professional tract. The first talk, which will take place in Great Rooms One and Two of the Mendenhall Student Center on April 3, is entitled "The Bible and the New Age Movement Anyone intrigued with conspiracy theory should make every effort to hear Deena as he explores the possible existence of a movement which one scholar characterizes as having "legions of conspirators in hospitals, universities and schools In this lecture, Deena will pay par- ticular attention to theories of power and influence, two very important topics for any multiculturalist. "At the root of New Age philoso- phy is a subtle rebellion against the sovereign, biblical and holy God Deena says. "The obsessive quest for instant results - health, wealth, suc- cess and fame - seduces us to lose Seodial Deena sight of Calvary and introduces us to the god of this world; the temporal and external replace the eternal and internal Deena will address such questions as "What is the extent of the move- ment's influence?" and "What arc the movement's philosophies?" On top of these difficult questions, Deena will also analyze the Bible's part in the conspiracy Deena's second lecture takes on a very different topic while still addressing questions of power and influence. "Babel or Pentecost: The Language Controversy Facing Com- monwealthThird Wrid Writers" will take place in the General Classroom Building, Room 1014, on April 14. Self-identity will be a central focus for Deena here as he explicates how col- onization has created fragmented lin- guistic cultures within the Third World. "The language of controversy in Africa is of great magnitude and visi- bility Deena explains. "The central argument is whether African writers should use the colonizers' languages or the native languages Using language as a basis for iden- tity, Deena will illustrate how such fragmentation has affected the litera- ture written in the indigenous lan- guages of the various Third World nations. Deena is a well-established scholar who has demonstrated time and time again his academic expertise. He has several forthcoming articles set to be published in journals such as the College Language Association Journal and The Commonwealth Review. His soon-to- bc-released book is entitled Decolonisation of Colonial ami Canonical Marginalizatum in the Works of Writers of Color, a work that further demon- strates Deena's devotion to his pro- fession and its cause.

First, Jay will give you up-to-date info about the ongoing saga of his upcoming dialogue with Paul Edwards, downtown club and local band manager, about the state of the local music scene. After that. Dale will consider the problems that plague the local movie theaters and possible ways to resolve them. So su back and relax, it should be a fun romp. Take it away. Jay. Hi, Jav here, to tell vou about my rocky relationship with the aforementioned Paul Edwards. In case you missed it, here's the skinny. I wrote a couple of articles this year derid- ing downtown for not providing Greenville enough choice in our local music scene. Paul spoke out against my point-of- view and invited me to join him on WZMB to discuss our dif- ferences. I said that would be great, name the time and place and I'd be there. This is the answer I received: Dear Jay, Thanks inches for the prompt and enthusiastic reply. I have made contact with WZMB and they tell me that Thursday, April 3 would be a great day for a friendly little debate. I would Hie to, with your am- sent, get both The East Carolinian and WZMB to do a Bait-adver- tismg for this event. If what we are trying to accomplish is to stimulate the minds I think getting as many minds as possible to listen m would only be appropriate. On a separate note, I would'appreciate copies of the first two arti- i ties that set me off"so that I may further twislyour thoughts and'words to use them against you. The band'did'in fact use my copies of your arti- cles as I predicted. I'll keep them away from these copies. Besides, fax paper is kind of rough if you get my drift. I am looking forward to publicly debating you, and I suggest you show up with more than just your opinion. Regards, Paul Edwards sunshine management group Not wanting to ignore him, I immediately sent this mis- sive back: Dear Paul, Thursday, April 3 sounds great to me, too. Just one question. What time will this take place? I assume you booked The Roots Rock Show for its unbiased audience, but what do I know. CNot much" is the punchline to insert here.) Regardless, I need a time. Thanks. About your question towards advertising, I wouldn't feel right gio- ing you consent to use my name without knowing the way in which it wouldbe used, so I'll have to nix the promotion idea unless I get some more info about it. Rest assured, though I will be addressing the issue again m the paper andwilldefimtety inrbtde it in the It's Showtime calendar, so word will get out. Included'are the two articlesofmmeyou requested. If you need any- more heip, please let me know. I'd be glad to give you all"the assistance you need. Until next time. Jay Myers That was a week ago, and I have yet to receive an answer to my request for a time. If I don't receive one soon, I'll sim- ply assume that the on-air meeting has been called off. However, if I get notice of a time by today, I'll include it in Thursday's paper. Keep watching this space. Now over to Dak. Hi, gang. Jay and I have been blasting the local movie scene for quite some time, and we arc not alone with our crit- icisms. While some people have insisted that the local the- ater chain is not to blame for lousy cinematic choices, I say it is. I am not an idiot; I know that movies are all about mak- ing money. But who has come to the conclusion that movies, like Sylvester Stallone's Dayhght and Steven Segal's The Glimmer Man are making money? Both of those films were critical and commercial disasters all across the U.S. I'm will ing bet anything that Greenville was no exception. I've seen many, many films since moving here in 93, and" I know for a fact that local residents are not flocking to much of the mainstream waste that our theaters repeatedly show: The audience turn-out for films like Judge Dredd'and Escape From LA. were laughable (as were the films themselves) Meanwhile, I also know for a fact that films like Pulp Fiction. and Sling Blade have pulled in sizable crowds. We got Sling Blade four months after it was released in Raleigh, and still 25 people paid full price for one particular showing. (This num- ber was counted by a reliable source. It is not debatable). As- much as I enjoyed The Devil's Own, there weren't more thatL 25 people at the showing I attended. My point? You can't � blindly say that Greenville residents only want mainstream Hollywood films. SEE SCREAM. PAGE HI review Ford and Pitt add strength, intelligence to The DeviTs Own Dale Williamson ASSISTANT I.IFRSTYLE EDITOR learning polished, veteran actors with newer talent seems to be the "in" thing for Hollywood now. Within the last year, we have seen such teams as Morgan Freeman and Keanu Reeves in the disastrous Cham Reaction and Al Pacino and Johnny Depp in the criti- cally praised Dannie Brasco. Moves like this, on Hollywood's part, make sense from a commercial standpoint. Get the respected pro to pull in a more mature audience and team that pro with fresh (and sexually appealing) meat to attract the younger audience. While a business move like this may look nice on paper, the result- ing product is not always as impressive as it should be. The latest big budget film featur- ing a generational tag team is director Alan J. Pakula's The DeviTs Own, which has old pro Harrison Ford trading punches with sex symbol Brad Pitt. While the finished product (which was plagued by serious production problems) is not as explosive as one may hope for or expect, this film is an intriguing shades-of-grey character study powered by exemplary perfor- mances from its two leads. The story centers around Rory Devaney (Pitt), an IRA revolutionary who escapes from Ireland to America in an effort to purchase weapons for his cause. Ar. American sympathizer manages to secure Rory a fake job and a place to stay - the home of Tom O'Meara (Ford), an Irish-American cop who is willing to help anyone from his ancestral birthplace. Of course, Tom is clueless as to Rory's intentions. Tom and his family both see Rory as a kind, admirable man. Shades of grey develop here, though, because Rory actually is a kind, admirable man. He grows to love Tom and his family, but his hatred against British oppression back home is stronger. Making matters worse, and giving Rory a violent incentive, is the fact that his childhood past is tainted with bloody loss because of the IrishBritish conflict. Blood starts spilling in America when Rory's deal to purchase weapons goes wrong and violence breaks into Tom's otherwise secure home. Once Tom becomes involved, he is forced to hunt down the very man he had accepted as a friend. $ HM si Sm it w FfM Sit tMitinw Pay Full Prict The film's premise makes for an intelligent thriller, and that's what The DeviTs Own turns out to be. As opposed to working at a dizzying speed filled with one action moment after another. The DeviTs Own paces itself and allows for character development. This is a good and bad thing, though. Many may find this film too slow, and many more may find it too melodramatic. The dialogue, for instance, is blotched with purposeful lines that sound hokey when spoken. Rory stresses not once but twice to not expect a happy ending. "This is not an American story he bemoans. "It's an Irish one Ford once stated that you can write certain lines but you sure can't say them. The writers should have taken their actor's advice on rhis project. Much of the film's flaws may flow from the fact that too many fingers were dipped into the screenplay. (At least three writers were involved with the script.) Both Ford and Pitt have complained about starting production without a finished script, and the film suffers as a result. The DeviTs Own struggles to balance its star power, but it doesn't quite succeed. The first half seems to focus more on Pitt, while the second half emphasizes Ford. If the writers could have found a way to incorporate both characters into the film without playing favorites, then a more solid story may have resulted. While I'm sure the writers meant for the character relationship to be Harrison Ford and Brad Pitt play pool and trade blows in Alan J. Pakula's newest thriller. The Devil's Own. Despite a troubled production and a lackluster script, the two stars manage to retain some entertainment value in the film. PHOTO COURTESY OF COLUMBIA PICTURES conflicted by the bond they form, the audience doesn't actually witness Rory and Tom interact enough to fully swal- low their compassion for one another. One montage sequence of Rory and Tom shooting pool followed by a short, yet key, conversation about the nature of violence isn't enough. Still, two intriguing characters are nicely fleshed out, more thanks to the SEE DEVIL.

University of Southern California professor emeri- tus of religion, saw scenes of the Heaven's Gate cult suicide unfolding Thursday, it catapulted him back almost half a century to a Canadian hilltop. The Costa Mesa resident was a mere kid then, but he will never for- get how scared he was seeing a group of white robed religious cultists pray- ing desperately on a knoll near his home. Thev were convinced that Jesus was coming to take them back home to the heavens. "It was an eerie sight, it was rain- ing so hard 1 could hardly see them LaRue recalled. "They seemed almost supernatural themselves They were gone the next day, sup- posedly back to their everyday jobs and mundane lives right here on Earth. LaRue makes the point to show that cults have always existed. The only thing that changes is the names of the groups and the fancy lingo in which they couch the religious tenets that they have usually borrowed and stolen from other beliefs to fashion their own fantastic stairway to the stars. But the types of people who join these groups, and their reasons for joining have remained steady. "In cult life there is usually a reli- gious tinge to the doctrine because it can't be life as usual LaRue says. "It has to be beyond and above life The cult leader needs the super- natural as a come-on to members searching for answers, 1-aRue says. .And he also needs it in case things don't quite work out like he said. He can blame it on the eternal mystery of it all. Other cult experts and theologians note that the Heaven's Gate group was fixated on the typical cult themes: the millennium, transcen- dental experiences, cyclic changes on Earth and in the heavens and a preoc- cupation with a desire for love. And it may be that desire for love that transcends it all. "Cults offer brotherhood and sis- terhood that exalts the individual and says you are important and will have a place in the future, in this case anoth- er planet or dimension LaRue says. "It's very attractive Often people join cults as a reac- tion to the standard religions that "have become mechanized so that the individual feels lost in the crowd LaRue said. "In the small cult, they believe that they have a particular standing Fervor has always been a part of religion, and cult leaders "take advan- tage of this says religion Professor Marvin Meyer of Chapman University. It is especially young or new reli- gions that have this zealous enthu- Cult leader Marshall Applewhite saism, he noted. "If Jesus was hen- today, we probably wouldn't like him very much. He wouldn't fit into the polite spirituality of today. He seemed as odd and dangerous to the Greco Romans as some of the cults do to us today But Meyer says that suicide "rep- resents the extreme of religious action Most mass suicides occur among end-of-world cults, experts say. They also acknowledge that past mass killings share many common traits. "All of these groups feel they had hit the wall, and it was their religious dutv to kill themselves said Judy Saltzman, professor of philosophy at California Polytechnic State SEE CUIX PAGEf CREATION lac I i Did v EVOLVE?

Class lecturer Rickey Vincent says funk has reflected important cultural attitudes, including protest and identity. More than 50 students in his class are catching the groove. Vincent said Thursday chat, "Students are going to find out more about the message in the music and more about recent black history Funk is a form of rhythm and blues popular since the '70s. Rhythm is combined with a prominent, jerky bass line, minimal harmonic struc- ture and declamatory vocalizing. Vincent says bands like The Isley Brothers, with their song "Fight the Power Earth, Wind and Fire and George Clinton have different styles, but all have messages. The course, "Black protest music 1965-1990s: funk, rap and the black revolution examines music that can range from aggressive to exhilarating. Vincent, who has written a book on the sig- nificance of funk, says most of the written history of black music has ig- nored the gen- re as a musical force. He says, "What young people can learn from funk is that the spirit of protest was still in the air long after the sit-ins of the '60s Parliament FunkadeBc brews up some nasty funk for new San Francisco State history course. f HOTO COURTESY OF THE INTERNET RUSH FETA FETA FETA Cult � For Find out what being Greek is all about!

She cited Jonestown, Guyana, where more than 90 followers of Jim Jones committed mass suicide in 1978. She mentioned Waco, Texas, where 78 Branch Davidtans perished in 1993, burning with theit leader rather than surrender to the federal agents who surrounded them. Then there were the 74 members of the Order of the Solar TcmpSe, who believed that suicide would transport them to a new life on a planet called Sirius. They killed themselves over the last three years in Europe and Canada. Not all mass suicides occur among cult groups. One example: Masada, where hundreds of Jews committed suicide rather than submit to Roman rule. That is regarded as noble in a sense Saltzman said. But recent mass suicides occurred among groups under the sway of a charismatic leader whose followers had lost the strength to act or think independently. "No matter what you call it, it's a cult said Patricia Pina, executive director of the Hotline Help Center Inc a suicide-prevention center. "Once they're involved with a group like that, it's very hard to get them out. These are people looking for answers in all the wrong places H. Newton Malony, senior profes- sor of psychology at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, agrees. However, he notes that while we may not belive the Heaven's Gate theology, that they were going to the big mothership in the sky, in the end, "Not one of us can disprove it, can we?" There are many types of cults, some benign, others more deadly, says Dr. L.J. West, UCLA psychiatrist and leading cult expert. "The ones that concern us are those we call 'totalist' cults Vfest said. "Characteristically, they require some extravagant commitment to an idea or a person who fanatically brooks no contradiction What happens in these cases, he says, is that the organization uses "coercive techniques or insidious manipulation" of members until they surrender their identities. However, he notes that in no way should one consider that a person has to be "a nut" to be a cult member "That is entirely incorrect. They are usually perfectly normal until the cult forces stresses on them The Heaven's Gate group is a good example that "throws the brainwash- ing theory of cults out the window says Malony. Reports indicate that Heaven's Gate members, as with other cult followers, went in with their eyes wide open. Kevin Lewis, assistant professor of biblical studies at Biola University in La Mirada, notes the UFO connection to the Heaven's Gate group, and the fact they committed suicide to find salvation, is not unusual among cults. One of the biggest UFO groups, Uranna, has been in existence since 1955. They have a 2,000-pasc bible that purportedly was revealed by a space alien. Lewis, who is writing a book on UFO cults, said that the Heaven's Gate group is like many such cults in that it has taken a mish-mash of reli- gious learnings from many traditions to come up with its often-confusing doctrine. He notes the group at once decried Jesus and Christianity as Luciferians, and then turned around and said that one of the reasons they felt they were making their exit from Earth was because of the scriptural warnings in Matthew and Luke.

April 1. 1997 lifestyle Tlit East Carolinian Scream continued ffom page If there is a tact in this issue, the fact is that our local theaters (which arc all monopolized by Carmike Cinemas) won't take chances. All of my friends don't even bother to check what films are playing in town because the assumption is if we want to see most good films we have to go to Raleigh. Most everyone I talked to didn't even realize Sting Blade was playing in Greenville. In fact, they were shocked to discover this. News of its arrival was spread more by word of mouth. I've heard the arguments that Greenville's demographics won't allow us to get many films. I say that this is a lame excuse for not trying. New Bern got Tke FugJisk Patient, why didn't we? But, obviously we can get these films because tke fiajfei Patient is reportedly coming here in a few weeks, more than likely became the film won many major Oscars last 'week. What our local theaters need to do is get more active in their business. Take chances and promote the prod- uct. If you look in The Dady tawar, you almost need a magnifying glass to see that Sling Blade is playing. Meanwhile. Jim Carey's gleeful face is plastered across the page for his latest ,�filrn, Itr. liar. Worse yet, the the- (atcrs don't advertise with us. the stu- dent newspaper that reaches thou- sands of students all across campus. Push your hard-to-sell films in TF.C, , and you might actually sell a few tick- � ets. � Okay, suppose for a moment that Greenville only wants mainstream films. Whv do we miss so many good Possum continued (torn page ? blues stars as Howlin' Wolf and Son House. Burnside's excellent two songs open the album and are followed by the mellow blues of Junior Kimbrough. proprietor of Junior Kimbrough's Juke Joint in Chulahoma, Mississippi. Kimbrough offers up the slowest and most medi- tative blues of all the performers. His songs are heartfelt and haunting. "Meet Me in the City" and "Sad Days, Lonely Nights" are what you listen to when you're so lonesome you could cry; but would rather listen to the blues. The rest of the album is what you listen to when you want to dance the blues away (which will never happen, thankfully). Dave Thompson's two blues rock numbers arc by far the cleanest and smoothest sounding mainstream films, films that are praised by critics all over the country and do well at the national box office? Within the last year alone, Greenville missed out on such noted mainstream films as Drmnie Brasm. Fry .few Home. Super, of and Jatitie Ckrm's First Stihr, just to name a few. When my fiance' called the theaters to inquire as to why we didn't get a certain film, she was rudely told, "We can't get every- thing There arc ten screens in town that show new releases. We can get more than we do, and our selections can be better. And what about the Park, our very own $1.50 theater? Why can't we get second-run films that never played in our town? Why does fmlepmleme Day have to play there for over a month after it had already played at the Buccaneer all summer? This is just another example of a missed opportu- nity to experiment and see how well certain films will play in Greenville. What it all boils down to is that our local theater owner is a lazy business- man who is out for a quick buck. Instead of putting forth energy and money into his business (I won't even talk about the poor quality of the actual theaters), he would rather monopolize the market and leave us, the moviegoers, with little or no choice, I call out for one of three things to happen. Either support all indepen- dent and foreign films that happen to play in Greenville, or stop paying money for the siush that is offered us, or (better yet) take whatever action is necessary to get a competing theater in town. If we, as unsatisfied con- sumers, don't take action to let our frustrations Ik heard, then we might as well just shut up. I agree, Dale. What we need all around is choice. By not giving Greenville choices, or, worse yet, by not telling people about the few songs on the album. Despite that, the songs are still quite good, showing off Thompson's considerable guitar gifts and his tear-inducing voice, similar to that of Otis Rush's. Paul "Wine" Jones plays the kind of beat-happy blues that Ike Turner perfected in between beatings on Una. "Rob and Steal" and "My Baby (Jot Drunk" arc as low down and dirty as their titles suggest. Ccdell Davis, who also produced the two songs he performs, has a voice that sounds like he's singing with a mouthful of sour mash. You won't lie able to listen to Davis without trying to imitate his voice, and his boogie woogic blues will sure as hell make you shake your mon- eymaker. The Jelly Roll Kings conclude the album appropriately with "Coahoma County Blues The band, composed of harp hero Frank Frost (this time on keyboard), Big Jack Johnson and Sam Carr, shuffle along with an amazing instrumental workout. With Bumside and Fat Possum, you know you II never get out ol these blues alive, but who wants to? choices they might have, the citizens of Greenville arc being sold short. We're already thought of as back- woods bumpkins. Why not try to actively change that image? But we feel as if we're flogging a dead horse here, so we'll finally shut up about the topics. However, we don't think you should. If you feel strongly about these issues, then we encourage you to contact the the- aters, the clubs, the artists, or us for that matter. Be active. However, we understand that some people may lie perfectly happy with that country bumpkin label, that negative perception. We've got the makings of a really great stereotype here in town.

Bazluki selected North Carolina's Trainer-of-the-Year STEVE LOSEY STAFF WRITE ECU's sports medicine staff had reason to cele- brate last Wednesday. Jim Bazluki, an assistant trainer with the Pirates, was selected as North Carolina's CollegeUniversity Athletic Trainer-of- the-Year. Bazluki has worked as a full-time trainer since 1993, when he earned his masters in health edu- cation from ECU. He also received a B.S. in Health & Physical Education from ECU in 1990. During his time as a student, Bazluki worked as a trainer. He grew up in Charlotte and went to a small private high school that was too financially depleted to afford an athletic training program. His dad was the coach of the football team, so Bazluki saw firsthand the need for athletic train- ers. He went to a summer camp that helped edu- cate potential trainers. The time he spent there helped him decide what he wanted to do. Bazluki's training duties lie mainly with the men's basketball team. He attends every practice and game, whether at home or away. He also acts as trainer for most male sports, including soccer, golf, track, baseball and swimming. The only men's sport he doesn't train is football, due to the time constraints his schedule places on him. "College athletics are very exciting and it's just as exciting to work with the teams Bazluki said Bazluki is always there for ECU's athcietcs. and works to keep them healthy and in proper shape to keep chem in the game, where they're needed. However, sometimes they do get hurt or sick, and it is Bazluki's respon- sibility to work with them until they have recovered and are ready to take the field. His other duty at ECU is teaching, and Bazluki enjoys seeing his students learn just as much as he enjoys training atheletes. "It's very gratifying when other people in your own profession see and recognize the things that you do Bazluki said. "It's one thing for people you work with every day to appreciate your skills, but for people outside to recognize it makes it more worthwhile Jim Bazluki Intramural bowling champs crowned David Graham takes Dominion Seniors I SAN ANTONIO (AP) - David Graham had the kind of finish golfers dream about. f Tied for the lead with John Jacobs, Graham dropped in a 16-foot eagle putt on the 18th hole Sunday to win the $800,000 Southwestern Bell Dominion Seniors The eagle gave Graham a 3-under-par 69 and a total of 10-under 206 for the tournament. That was one stroke better than Jacobs, who missed a 10-footer on ! No. 18 that would have forced a playoff. The eagle earned the 50-year-old Graham $120,000 and his second Senior I PGA Tour victory of the year. "We realized we needed some birdies on the back nine Graham said. "I hit i my best drive and iron shot all day at 18. Length made a difference, especially 1 on the last hole Graham, who started off the day at 7-under, parred the first 10 holes. An 8- foot putt on the par-5 11th gave him his first birdie of the day. I The (10-20 mph) wind caused us to be cautious on the 'ront nine said ' Graham, aaecond-year senior who won the GTE Classic on Feb. ,b in Lutz, Fla. Tied for third place two srrokes behind were John Bland" and Raymond - Floyd. Bland started at 3-under for the day before rallying to 8-undcr with five birdies. Floyd went to 7-under with a birdie on No. 14, but parred the next ' three holes before a birdie on No. 18. Daiy to enter Betty Ford Center PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla.

State. A filed of 80 schools and nearly 2,000 runners participated at this weekend's meet. ECU's 4x100 and 4x200 meter relay squads finished in second place behind the N.C. All-Stars in their respective events, allowing the Pirates to claim the fastest time of any college team in both events. The Pirates' 4x100 meter relay squad composed of Vaughn Monroe, Brian Johnson, Christia Rev, and Bevan Foster placed second in the event with a time of 40.55. The N.C. All-Stars won in 39.47. In the 4x200 meter relay, ECU's team of James Alexander, Johnson, Dwight Henry and Darrick Ingram finished in 1:25.23 just behind the first place All-Stars (1:22.94). In the 4x400 meter relay, ECU's relay of Alexander, Mike Miller, Demon Davis and Ingram finished in a dead heat with the University of North Carolina, both schools finished tied with identical times of 3:07.23. After further review, the judges gave first place honors rtf UNC. In the individual sprint events, Pirate freshman' Titus Haygood placed fifth in the 100-meters with a time of 10.61. In the 200 meter sprints, fellow freshman Bevan Foster finished in fifth place in 21.91 and sophomore Christia Rey placed 11th in 22.19. "This was an outstanding meet for our team said ECU Head Coach Bill Carson. "In the both the 4x200 and 4x400 meter relays, we had the fasted times we have ever had this early in the outdoor season. Furthermore, Titus Haygood did a real nice job in the 100, especially since he was the only rreshman in the event � The Lady Pirates performance at the Raleigh Relays was highlighted by a second-place finish in the 4x200 meter relay and junior Michelle Clayton's third place finish in the hammer throw. ECU's 4x200 meter relay team composed of Carmen Weldon, Rasheca Barrow, Kai Eason and Amanda Johnson took second place honors in a time of 1:40.18, finishing just behind Seton Hall (1:37.29). in the 4x100 meter relay this same Lady Pirates relay squad finished fifth with a time of 47.32. In the 4x100 meter relay the same squad finished fifth with a time of 47.32. In the filed events, junior Pirate thrower Michelle Clayton led the way for ECU. Clayton finished third in the hammer with a distance of 163-06, good enough for NCAA qualifying standards. Clayton also placed 11th in the discus (138-08) and 12th in the shot put (43-01 34). In the other field events, ECU senior jumper Lave Wilson finished 1 lth in the long jump (18-06 12) and 13th in the triple jump with a distance of 38-07 34.

A total of 27 men's, nine women's and six co- 1 rec teams participated during the season. In the co-rec division, the "Golden Eagles" and "Strikers" bat- tled it out in the finals. The "Strikers" emerged victorious and completed the season with an overall record of 3-1. All of the top nine aver- ages in the co-rec league were among three teams. The "Strikers" Rob Ganders was the top bowler with an outstanding average of 137 while teammate Doug Smith was second at LadyVols defeat Lady Monarchs CINCINNATI (AP) - Of all the national championships won by the Tennessee women, this latest was clearly the most improbable. It was won by a team that lost its starting point guard to a torn knee lig- ament in October. By a ream that was 10-6 in early January and appeared to be beaten down by a rugged schedule. By a team rhat finished fifth in the Southeastern Conference and looked as if it had no chance to even mate it to the Finai Four. But somehow, some way, the Lady Vols pulled it off. When a team has Pa; Summitt as its coach and Chamique Holdsclaw as its go-to player, nothing, it seems, is out of reach. Tennessee won its second consec- utive national championship and fifth overall Sunday night with a 68-59 vic- tory over Old Dominion. "I think deep down this team believed we could do it and that we could be alive in March said Kellie Jolly; the injured point guard who returned to action Jan. 12. "We just had to have faith and believe in our- selves The Lady Vbls (29-10) believed so strongly that they beat No. 1-ranked Connecticut in the Midwest Regional finals to get to the Final Four, knocked off Notre Dame in the semi- finals, then broke Old Dominion's 33- game winning streak with a brilliant defensive game plan conjured up by Summitt and an equally brilliant offensive game by Holdsclaw. "This year was a tremendous blessing for me, for our players and our staff in that we faced a lot of adversity Summitt said. "We had injuries. We had tough losses. "But we never had attitude prob- lems that we could not move on from immediately, and this is a group that will always be very special to me per- sonally as well as professionally Holdsclaw, more than anyone, helped make it that way. She scored 14 of her game-high 24 points in the second half Sunday night and was in charge when Tennessee put the game away at the end. After Old Dominion took a 49-47 lead on Amber Eblin's 3-pointer, Holdsclaw scored 10 points, handed out two assists and blocked a shot in the finai 6:48. Old Dominion (34-2) had no answer for that, leaving Holdsclaw 6-0 in championship games. She won four state championships at Christ the King High School in New York City and now has two national titles in two years of college. "I felt I let the pressure get to me early said Holdsclaw, who went through a 15-minute stretch in the first half without a basket. "In the second half, I went out and let things come to me. Right now, we kind of have our place in history Tennessee became the first women's team since Southern Cal in 1983 and 1984 to win back-to-back 128. Other top bowlers in the co-rec league included Allison Kemp (109) and Julie Chishoim (100) of the "Strikers "Silent Attack I's" highest average was held by Kellie Udez(127), fol- lowed by Josh Lothridge (11?) and Jason Ash (116). "Silent Attack H's" Megan Schubring and Scott Feger averaged 104 and 102 respectively. Zina Briley did not place among top averages, but served as captain of the "Strikers In the men's league, the "Viet Stars" bowled their way to the all- campus title beating "Silent Attack" in the independent finals, thereby finishing the season with an unde- feated overall record of 44). All five men's teams had at least one bowler place in the top 10 for the season. The "Viet Stars" Vu Vo was the top bowler with an overall average of 163. Luan Chan (138), Phong Phan (136) and Tien Bui (132), all of the "Viet Stars" placed in the top 10. The second highest average at 147 was held by Chris Graziano of "Capriofoleacae Other top bowlers included Steve Roberts ("Capriofoleacae") at 135, "Silent Attack's" Scott Feger (134) and Jason Ash (131), Bryan Newman of the "Bud Bowlers" held a 133 average, and the "Fletcher High Rollers" John Bullock averaged 132. In the fraternity division, "Pi Lambda Phi A" captured the Gold division while "Theta Chi B" won the Purple league. "Silent Attack I' captured the women's divisions defeating "Silent Attack II" in the finals and complet- ed the season with an undefeated record of 4-0. "Silent Attack I" swept the league with the top three bowlers included Kellie Valdez and Lisa Greene both with averages of 112 for the season and Wendy Cameron at 109, The final member of the cham- pionships women team was Melissa Auray.

PAGE !3 Why not gymnastics: When football players are tackled to tlie grotnd, there is always a chance that someone is going to get hurt. And it's not uncommon f r baseball players to walk away from the plate with a black eye. In a facility such as the Si.udea Recreation Center, where students play intense games of basketball, work their bodies to the max and even climb up a rock wall, there are plenty of opportunities for injuries. So, why is use of the gymnastics room in Christenbury limited to only those students enrolled in gymnastics classes? Not many of ECU's students are comporting about the variety of activities offered by Recreational Services. However, some are not able to take full advantage of the athletic facilities on campus. Many students are interested in using the gymnastics room but are not able to due to liability reasons. , j , , Only those students who are taking the structured gymnastics class (which is only offered at two allotted times during the week) are able to use the room. This is unfortunate for those students who are not majoring in athletic-related fields because many students do not have room in their schedules for deceives. In the past, gymnastics was seen more commonly in collegiate athletics than it is today. Many universities have done without the sport due to lacking athletic budgets and difficul- ties in recruiting. The typical gymnast hits his or her peak at the age of nine or ten, so find- ing 18-year-old competitors who are still displaying the potential to learn new skills can sometimes be difficult. .Additionally, the sport was known to bring on some of the harshest injuries ever experienced by athletes. It is understandable that many students may not be aware of the proper techniques that should be used in learning and performing gymnastics skills. However, some students who have experience in the sport feel their recreational interests are limited due to prohibited use of the facility. . It would be unreasonable for students to expect the room to be open at their conve- nience, but a few hours each week would be more than enough time for those with a back- ground in the sport to touch up on old skills and experiment with new ones. Injuries could be prevented by allowing only those students who pass a performance test to use the room. This would provide protection for the athletic department and would permit veterans of the sport to do what they love to do. f' � mi inOTi ii i Elkington swings to victory at The Players Championship PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - The rough had never been higher. The field had never been stronger. Steve Elkington had only one expla- nation for his seven-stroke victory in The Players Championship. He had never played better. Elkington won his first major in the PGA Championship in 1995, when he closed with a 64 and beat Colin Montgomerie in a playoff with a 25-foot birdie putt. He entered the week with seven PGA Ibur victories, winning The Players Championship six years ago, and twice taking the elite season- opening Tournament of Champions. But in the richest event on tour, against a field that included the top 50 players in the world rankings for the first time anywhere, Elkington amazed even himself. "I'm just sort of sitting here try- ing to explain what it means to win this tournament by seven shots he said Sunday after shooting his fourth round in the 60s to finish at 16- under-par 272. "I mean, I played that good he said. "I basically blew away the best field we've ever had. And i didn't know if I was capable How could he not? Every time he went to the prac- tice range before his round at the Stadium Course on the TPC at Sawgrass, he hit the ball pure. He never took more than 30 putts in any round, including just 24 in Sunday's round of 69. Even Saturday night, when asked whether he could turn a two-stroke lead into a wire-to-wire victory, he said he was playing well and there was no reason that would change. And it didn't. While the rest of the field was trying to negotiate the swirling winds and rough that grew as high as 6 inches, Elkington played so well that the rest of the field quit watch- ing the scoreboard. "It would have to be an act of God for me to catch him after about 14 or 15 said Scott Hoch, who fin- ished second by making an 8-foot birdie putt on No. 17. "Whenever he gets his putter going, he can shoot some low scores - and he's not going to back off said Loren Roberts, who also shot a 69 to move into third at 8-under 280. Elkington won $630,000, which moved him to the top of the money list with $984,400 in just (bur starts this year. He won Doral three weeks ago, making him the first player since Tom Kite in 1989 to win two tournaments on the Florida swing. "I think I have a good chance of having a really good year the way things are going for me Elkington said. He looked relaxed sitting in a high-back chair, about as comfort- able as he looked on a Stadium Course that yielded an average score of 74.9 on the final day. But Elkington was a bottle of nerves Sunday morning, waking at 6:30 a.m. and looking for something to kill time for eight hours. "I sat in the room and putted for three hours he said. Good move. He led Hoch by only two strokes to start the day and left himself a 5- foot putt for par on the first hole. Elkington knocked it in and was off to the races. "I was going to have to face that putt sometime during the round he said. "It might have well as been the first one He made a 15-footer for par on No. 4, where Hoch made double bogey to widen the gap to four strokes. Five other times, Elkington made par putts of at least 4 feet to Keep his momentum. "I saw a fine player, if not a great player, out there today Hoch said after going head-to-head with Elkington. "The big thing is he made all his putts. If he would have missed all the putts I did and I would have made all the putts he did, then we might have had a good horse race going Elkington saved another par with a 10-foot putt on the par-5 16th. With a seven-stroke lead, the island green at No. 17 became a lot more bearable. "All I had to do is touch land and I'm in Elkington said. Defending champion Fred Couples did better than that. He aced the 17th to finish at 3-under 285. Nick Faldo was at 288 after a 72, beating playing partner Tiger Woods by one stroke in their first round of competitive golf. Greg Norman, in only his second PGA Ibur start of the year, shot a 79 and finished 6 over par. "The thrill I've got here is the way I've played my golf to beat this field Elkington said.

Amy Hooks got the Lady Pirates started with a triple to left field. Isonette Polonius and Rhonda Rost followed with back-to-back walks. With the bases loaded and only one out, Sharohn Strickland ripped a single to center field, scor- ing Hooks and Polonius while Rost moved up to second. ECU lead 2-1 at the end of one. Dcnisc Reagan won her third consecutive game. Her record is now 7-4. "I'm very proud of the way we played said Head Coach Tracey Kee. "We were able to bounce back after suffering a disappointing loss yesterday Game two was a pitching duel. Altogether the two teams only man- aged nine hits and left a total of nine runners on base. Christi Davis only allowed four hits for ECU, while walking no one. Davis evened her record at 4-4. Lady Vols continued ftom page 11 titles. And with five championships, Summitt has more than any other major college basketball coach, men or vomen, except UCLA's John Wooden, who won 10. "John Wooden is safe for a long time Summitt said with a smile. There were no smiles on the Old Dominion side. An emotional, free- spirited team, Old Dominion was taken out of its game by an aggres- sive, physical Tennessee defense that concentrated on containing All- America point guard Ttcha Penicheiro and preventing the ball from going inside. Penicheiro, who scored 25 points in Old Dominion's 83-72 victory over Tennessee on Jan. 7, was scoreless in the first half Sunday night and fin- ished with more turnovers (11) than points (10). Indicative of how the game went, Penicheiro threw the ball away on Old Dominion's final possession with two seconds left and went to the bench in tears. "In the first half, we were a little intimidated by the kind of pressure Tennessee put on us Penicheiro said. "We turned it over way too much. That had a lot to do with the result Clarisse Machanguana led Old Dominion with 16 points and Nyrce Roberts scored 13. The Lady Monarchs were hurt down the stretch when Mcry Andrade, their best defender, fouled out with 8:01 left. Abby Conklin added 12 points for Tennessee and Jolly had a champi- onship game-record 11 assists. "I think Tennessee, with pres- sure, certainly iook us totally out of it said Old Dominion coach Wendy Larry, whose team had averaged 85 points a game. "As physical as our basketball team is, we were definite- ly ouimusclcd Despite its problems, Old Dominion still managed to keep the game from becoming a rout. The Lady Monarchs turned the ball over on their first lour possessions in falling behind 6-0, and they trailed 27-11 after Jolry hit a 3-pointer with 5:57 left in the fiist half. Old Dominion finished the half on a high because Aubrey Eblin banked in a running 30-foot 3-point- er at the buzzer, drawing the Lady Monarchs to 34-22. They got the lead three times in the second half before being done in by Holdsclaw. "Something that she has that makes her really special. She has a tremendous desire to win Summitt said. "When the pressure is on, she wants the ball in her hands. "I told her, 'Quit passing the bas- ketball There are a lot of great play- �ts out there, but right now I fed she's the best in the game . �:�: :�:�� � �:�: :�:�: :��:�:�� if rod ucing provided PORT Ml Just activation MONTH AND OP LOW TIME YOU ACCESS LOCAL ACCESS - FREE LOCAL ACCESS CHARGE - ACCESS 1 DAILY- NEWSGROUPS REMOTE ACCESS WORLDWIDE IN THE U.
