PHOTO BT MARGUERITE BENJAMIN Survey raises question of gender equality in UNC KELLY LASSITER STAFFFACULTY ISSUES STAFF WRITER Rnne? from a survey on gender equality con- ducted by a committee at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill prompted TEC to look into gender equity among all 16 uni- versities within the UNC-system, including ECU. . Sarah Manekin, chairwoman of the Human Relations Committee at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, conducted a sur- vey and perceived a lack of gender equity in the faculty. The committee plans to circulate a petition expressing its concerns about gender issues throughout classrooms, residence halls, and Greek houses before sending it to Chancellor Michael Hooker. "We are not disputing the study, but are rather showing our support for gender equity in the faculty and in the faculty salaries, Manekin said. . As of ftll 1995, the number of full-time fac- ulty in all North Carolina Universities totalled 8,498. 5,790 males dominate the total number of faculty while women tarried with 2,708. The numbers showing the academic ranks for'males and females revealed that women across the UNC-system consistently landed the least desirable jobs. At N.C. State University, for example, the number of male professors was 591 while the number of female professors was only 51. Appalachian had 205 male professors and 45 female professors. UNC-Chapcl Hill had 680 male professors and 105 females. In summary, men employed by the univer- sities of North Carolina outnumbered women by 2337 to 373 in the rank of professor, 1664 to 738 in the position of associate pro- fessor and 1151 to 837 in the assistant professor cate- gory. At ECU, the workforce consisted of 2,075 women and 1,599 men in 19. Although women com- pose 56.5 per- cent of the faculty, men have a tremendous lead in the precentagc of faculty in the highest academic rank of orofessor. Of ECU's professors, 86.5 percent are men and 13.5 are women. In the chemistry department at ECU, there arc three full-time women and 17 full- time men. "We try to recruit as many females as pos- sible said Dr Chia -ya Li, chair of the chem- istry department. "It has been this way for many, many years. We would like to have more females, but there is always an overwhelming response from males when jobs are adver- tised L � cAa The School of Business has a ratio of 49 males to 13 females working full-time, 49:13.

However, students not enrolled in summer school will be required to pay $60 or $30 per summer session to use the new recreation center. "We're trying to accommodate students who may or may not be in summer school but have been paying regular fees during the fall and spring semesters Nance Mize, director ot recreation services, said. � Seniors graduating in May will also be able to purchase the summer pass for $60. They will have this privilege until Aug. 1, when they are considered alumni and are required co pay the alumni membership fee of $240 per year. After a student pays for their summer pass, they will receive a membership card similar to the staff membership cards with an expiration date. The Rec Center will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. dunng both summer sessions. Before and after the sessions, it will operate under its breakholiday hours of 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. The facility is planning to continue to operate all ot the regular services, including aerobic classes during the summer, as well as planning special events. "We're working with student focus groups to poll them to see what special events they would like to have in the sum- mer Mize said. , Though in the past summer programs have failed to pro- duce much student participation, Mize is hopeful that with the new facility summer programs will tlounsh. "We are already planning to have pool parties centered around the outdoor pool Mize said. The outdoor pool will have its grand opening April 10 in conjunction with the recreation center's Fiesta Night. The pool hours are not finalized yet; Mize expects it to be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. for "prime-time sunning. The outdoor pool is 30 by 40 feet and is suitable for leisure swimming, water vollevball and water basketball. There is also a large deck surrounding the pool for sunbathing. Mize said the recreation center staff is looking forward to seeing student utilization of the facilities this summer, bven if the utilization numbers are low, Mize said the recreation center will not close this summer under any circumstances. Several vouth sport programs and adventure programs have also been planned for the new facility. However, these programs will not interfere with member usage of the recre- ation center. . .

Recently the department of minorities affairs and the Ledonia Wright African-American Cultura Center have created a minority Peer Mentoring Program for all incoming freshman. The program is designed to aid the minonty students by providing mentors with academic support, cultural sustenance, bi-weeklv tutorials, answers to academic and social adjustment challenges and systematized referrals of minonty students to appropriate university support resources. After going through the program the mentees will have received social and academic support, along with a lasting knowledge of college living. . To be a peer mentor one is selected on the basis ot academ- ic merit, leadership abilities and must be at least a snohomore student with one completed year of school at ECl. After meeting all qualifications the peer mentors are assigned to approximately 5-8 students, with whom they will work for the entire school year, bi- weekly on a one hourbas.s Normally, the peer mentor program w.ll hire 30-45 students who will begin their training prior to their first meeting with the incoming freshman. Some of their training includes learn- ing about the location of specific school resources and being able to answer typical questions raised by ��W�5 Once rheit training is complete the annual ECl Minority Visitation Day program marks the beginning introduction to the Pr�Then'peer mentors are introduced during the program and then they give campus tours to all potential ECl students.

People dressed in pink tutus, bunny ears, Santa Claus suits and hiking boots strutted Tuesday in the 19th Annual Saint Stupid's Day Parade. Tony, alias 'Y-Not' (Tony spelled backwards), showed up in a one-piece purple fur jumpsuit. Purple Haze he called it. The paraders marched, drummed and kazooed their way through the city's financial district - paying homage to everything from comet "Hail- Bopp" to the Federal Reserve Bank. The April Fool's Day tradition is sponsored by the self-proclaimed First Church of the Last Laugh, which has little discernible reason for existing other than the midday march.

ECi: students may- be able to view their grades on the Web as soon as the end of this semes- ter. Both NCSU and ECU are cur- rently checking into Web registra- tion. "The thing that most students really want, that we're working on, is being able to register on the Internet Bryan said. Though CIS is tryng to imple- ment Web registration, Bryan says they want to be sure they are fully prepared. "I want to make sure that securi- ty is sufficient Bryon said.

"The more we advance into this, the more emphasis will be placed on network stability Snowden said. However, though CIS said test programs for Web registration might begin as early as this summer, using orientation students was not con- firmed by the registrar's office. The possibility of posting grades on the Web at the end of the semester also was not confirmed. For now. the only official word is these services are being considered, and there are many factors to be con- sidered before any final decisions can be made. Professor uncovers mysrery, meaning behind New Age Movement KARLA JONES ORIENTTION'(.RNKRl. COl.l.FOF. ISSI'FS STVFF WRITER Many people do not know the mean- ing behind the New Movement and its philosophies. Critical questions about the movement, its positions and its effects on society will be dicussed and answered tonight. Tonight, in Great Rooms One and Two in Mendenhall Student Center, a lecture will be given on the Bible and the New Age Movement. Dr. Seodial Deena, from the department of English, will be answering a lot of questions people have about the New .Age and com- pare it to the teachings in the Bible. He wants to educate people about the New Age so we will not be vul- nerable to its teachings. He uses examples of the cults that followed one leader to the trag- ic endings of their lives. The reason for this is because they believe the new age of religion they created was the absolute truth. "Satan comes to humans and makes them think they are in touch with God" Deena said. "In most cults they have ended in suicide, because they believe that to lie absent from the body is to be in the presence of God, which Paul spoke about in the Bible. Most New Age teachings follow rhe Bible but take things out of context Deena will be using some scrip- tures from the Bible to some of his points across. He also will be some information from the book. The Aquarian Conspiracy by Marily Ferguson. The basis behind this lecture is to use the Bible against the New Age teachings. Then people will be able to judge for themselves whether its teachings come from the word of God. Deena's main concern in having this lecture is to answer some of the questions students have about God. In some of his classes the students had a lot of questions about the SEE NEW AGE.

Researchers at the State University of New York-Stony Brook said they found that the molecule mitogen-activated protein kinase, or MAP kinase, exists at levels five to 20 times higher in women wirh breast cancer than in normal breast tissue. The discovery is reported in the April Journal of CRmcal Investigation. An accompanying editorial calls it "an extremely exciting finding that has the potential of identifying an important therapeutic target Bar brawl continued from page 2 cants issued for anyone involved, and the person whose wallet was found does not have a local address Friday said. "At this point I don't know of Breast cancer strikes about 180,000 American women each year, and is expected to kill 44,000 this year. Dr. Craig C. Malbon, vice dean of Stony Brook's University Medical Center and head of the research team, said Tuesday that migration of MAP kinase into the nucleus of a cell signals the cell to begin replicat- ing itself, causing cancer. Previous research has shown that MAP kinase signals cells to prolifer- ate, Malbon said. The new research established a link between extreme- ly high levels of the molecule and the growth and spread of breast can- cer, he said. Elevated levels of MAP kinase also were found in the lymph nodes any continuing investigation into the matter Various rumors have also been called into TEC involving the med- ical condition of Carlyle after the fight, which were described as com- pletely untrue by Eric Valera, who is a co-owner of BW-3's. "The guy is alive and well, and the situation was handled as quickly of breast cancer patients whose can- cer spread to other parts of their body; making the molecule a marker for those so-called metastatic can- cers, he said. The discovery could allow doc- tors to test for high levels of MAP kinase in breast cells, allowing detection of breast cancer even before noticeable tumors develop, Malbon said. It also raises the possibility of introducing special molecules to cancerous cells designed to "turn off" the MAP kinase cell. Such targeted treatment in cases that are detected early can be preferable to the more scattershot approaches of radiation therapy or chemotherapy, Malbon said. and as quietly as possible Valera said. Police reports indicate that Carlyle was at the bar when the fight caused one of the speakers upstairs to fall, striking Carlyle in the head and causing severe lacerations. Carlyle was unable to be reached for comment. New age continued from page 2 Bible and religion that he was con- cerned about and wanted to answer. "My job is to share information with the students, so they can recognize the true God against the false ones Deena said. In the lecture Deena will discuss different forms of New Age teach- ings. Pathecism, Reincarnationism, Relativism and Esotercism are some of the teachings he wiil discuss. Deena encourages students and anyone else who has any questions about religion, the Bible or God to come to the lecture. Mentors continued from page t the mentce, but the mentor. "I didn't have a mentor when I was a freshman, but as a mentor I got to meet a lot of people and make an impact on other people's lives said sophomore Edwina Mckoy. Also, the positions that mentors hold are also called work study so they may be able to obtain financial aid. t The "peer mentor program promises to be a strong organization that will continue ro supplement the needs of minority students on campus.

Our deadlines conflicted with the : reporting procedures. For complete election results, check page 1. ; The election is over and the students have spoken�well, the ones who bothered to vote. We �have several pieces of advice for our newly-elected SGA Executives. First, be aware that those of us who voted for you did our part. You are in office to accomplish goals in our best interests�not what will benefit you the most personally. Those of us who have followed the election process in the last several weeks know where our candidates stand on the issues that are important to us. That's why we either voted for you or for your opponent. ; j We hope your interests don't shift once you realize you've been elected by your fellow stu- 3 filents to lead. You now have the opportunity to turn all those great ideas into great realities. ' ��: At The East Caroimm, wc believe all the candidates are worthy of our respect for standing up and running for office. All these candidates are aware of the public scrutiny that will be placed on them for every decision they make. Who's really benefiting from the decisions made by our leaders? This question will be asked of each and every major decision the new administration makes, just as it was asked of previous administrations. � One major issue tackled recently by both candidates for president was safety on campus. Both 1 "Scott Forbes and Cliff Webster are in favor of increasing security, especially late night, on cam- ftes and both have plans. Webster is in favor of researching a blue light system, whereas Forbes -leans toward physical security. Physical security means more patrols and presence of campus police. Can there be an SGA election at ECU without bringing up parking? Neither candidate can claim to bring a parking deck to campus because they both know they �Cdbn't have the kind of power it would take to bring a parking deck to ECU in the coming year. �. Finally, SGA Executives receiving tuition paid from student fees was another voter concern. I Neither candidate is in favor of continuing the practice of receiving a salary, tuition, fees and 'rjook payment, but this practice still goes on in SGA's administration. iji The talking is over. It's time for the winners of the election to stand up for us, the students who elected them, and make the changes they all claim to be so desperate to make. OPINION Columnist Address SGA issues better To the Editor, As the election nears and the debates are, or should be, occurring, I must admit that I feel quite ignorant pertaining to my lack of knowledge surrounding the events do not think - .that I am alone in saying that I am fair- ly contused as to what the different candidates believe inare working j towards, who all is running, and even 'the exact date of the elections. I know �that Presidential Candidate Cliff .�rfebster is strongly opposed to the im (primarily crooked equals my opinion sue me) SGA receiving free tuition, but is the other candidate, Scott Forbes? Has this and other questions like, for example, dining problems and dorm quality been asked? As a suggestion to the student run paper, why not print out an election info section with: the various candidates and their stances on issues; debates; ways to contact the candidates (for questions); and where, when and how to vote. This would seem like an obvious solution to previous low voter turnout, and it is a wonder why this was not really done before. If we, as students, desire to improve our school and our SGA (which seriously needs improving presently) then we should all partici- pate in the elections and cast our votes intelligently Chris R. Newton Sophomore Political ScienceCommunications Wfcore MCMUtM Imagine this You just got out of the most boring lecture in your Biology class. You start walking to your next destination in a cationic state. You don't even bother to look as you cross the street. The next thing you know, you're lying in a hospital bed with a doctor standing over you. He just finished explaining to you that you won't be able to walk across the stage during graduation. You won't be able to go downtown dancing with your friends. And avert worse, you'll never be able to walk again. I know; it's a pretty demented thing to imagine, but if you don't, then it could happen to you. ECU's campus is tremendously busy during the day. It's like rush hour traffic between pedestrians and motorists. And guess what? Both think that they have the right of way. A pedestrian will keep walking, saying to themselves "Pedestrians have the right of way. You have to stop What they don't realize is that motorists are saying "Tall blonde boy, 10 points It's a power struggle. I have found myself in both predicaments before. Wc are all in a hurry. Wc all have some place to be at a specific time. Therefore, we go as fast as we can until something slows us down. Like MM PmAXLmA DAILY NEWS The right of way n-m killing a pedestrian because we rolled through that stop sign. Or walking out in front of a car on Tenth Street, causing them to swerve into oncoming traffic. We don't realize it until it's too late. This time it's out of the hands of ECU authorities. They could put a traffic light at every corner on cam- pus. However, I'll bet that some bozo will still run the light because they have to drop off a friend in front of the Genera! Classroom building. It's up to us. That's right. The students have some sort of control over this. We can all do our part to make sure that no type of situation like this ever happens on our cam- pus. Pedestrians need to be very cau- tious of their surroundings. That includes both cars and bicycles. (Bikes can also do a lot of damage.) W: need to make sure that we cross the streets on the cross walks. I know that it is a lot quicker to cross at other places, but where is it safer? After all, that is why cross walks were invented. Also, when we're getting ready to cross, make sure the cars actually stop. Don't keep walking, thinking that they have to let you cross first, because they don't. Motorists are supposed to stop if you're in a cross- walk, but it depends if you'd like to bet your life on it. " � I also know that driving down College Hill at 15 MPH can be more dreadful than that Biology class. And? I'm not going to preach to you that? you shouldn't do it because I catch; myself going 35 down the hill. However, we do need to stop and! think for a moment. Yes, we're in aj hurry to get to class. Wj know how; hard it is to find a parking space Now, stop and think about all of the! students who live on Qotlepc Hijl There are five residence halls on the; hill. Each of them having hundreds of students pouring out of thetrC everyday to go to class. They dorftj watch where they're going. Maybe; you can help by slowing down. � And motorists, I know that whdn! you're driving on campus and JaC pedestrian walks right in front of your car with their noses stuck up im the air, you just want to slam on trie! gas to scare the living hell out (f them. Just stop and think about what; could happen. Instead, honk your. horn as long as you can and scare rife! hell out of them. Maybe next timeJ they'll watch where they're walking.� W: can all do our part to make! ECU safer. So, be careful on campus! whether you're walking or driving. Ir really doesn't matter who has the right of way. After all, everyone suf- fers when someone gets hurt.

JAY MYERS LIFESTYLE EDITOR Imagine my surprise when I walked into CD Alley the other day and found that not one, but two Make Up CDs, After Dark and SoUndVerOe, had Seen released within a few short weeks of each other. After listening to and loving their first release (Destination: Love, Livt! At Cold Rice) last year, f jumped at the chance to check out their new releases. For those of you who have not been intro- duced to the bombastic funk gem that is the Make Up, let me give you tome background. This may sound strange, but the Make Up are like an old science fic- tion story. One of those stones where they pose questions like "What if the Allies had lost tie war?" or "What if Kennedy hadn't been assassinated?" Kdh know, sort of like the perennial Christmas film favorite It's A WbmkrfalUfe starring Jimmy Stewart, or the "Minor, Mirror" episode of Star Trek where the crew enters an alternate universe and Spock has a goatee. What the hell am I talking about? I'll explain. The Make Up answers the question "What if Prince had begun his career in a punk band instead of going into pop and soul music?" The Make Up has the ability to perfectly combine elements of the paisley one with punk without SEE MAXE UP. PAGE 10 John Davis STAFT WRITER Take U2s Boy, inject T. Rex's Ekctrk Himior, sprinkle some Beach Boys on top and add a dash of AJ Green. Chill for 45 minutes and serve with a side of Merle Haggard. What you have doesn't taste quite like Starflyer 59, but its pretty dam close. Starflyer 59 is the brainchild of boy wonder Jason Martin, who grew up on both the schlock and the sub- lime music of the late 70s and early '80s. Starflyer is also a Christian rock band, and the surprising thing about them is that they're an exceptional band. Unlike fellow God-rockers, like the cheesy Jars of Clay or the very unoriginal DC Talk, Starflyer 59 have been creating some very powerful and spiritual rock n' roll for a little over three years. Since the Christian music scene is littered with trash, the appearance of a genuinely good act is a major event, something definitely worth being chronicled. While cheese-ballad bands like 4Him churn out more hon- eyed smarm and posers like the Newsboys continue to ape U2, Starflyer 59 have been recording some solid albums for three years now, the latest of which is Amentum. The bands first two records, each titled Starflyer 59 and differentiated only by their covers (the first was sil- ver, the second gold), represented the musical and emotional journeys of Martin and, unlike other religious acts, were rife with honesty and power. Both of these were more like solo projects for Martin, who played guitar, bass and drums on marry of those songs. With Americami, Martin has been joined by two permanent mates who have allowed Starflyer to do something it hasn't to date: sound like a band. The two additions are drummet Wayne Everett and bassist Eric Campuzano. Though Martin is cred- ited with writing all of the songs on Americami, the tunes have a much more organic feel to them, and the SEE STAKFIVER SI. PAGE S IT '�a Jig � : 10 : � f.

Please calf Criss is the cat's meow Pat reid STAFF WRITER When I heard Kiss was coming back to North Carolina (April 4 at the Dean Smith Center), 1 decided I had to go. It was something that I had to sec. So, I tried to do what I could for tickets and in the process I managed to snag an interview with Piter Criss, the drummer for the rock legends. After some technical difficulties, (a snowstorm in New York had wreaked havoc on the phone lines) we were up and going. �Pat Reid: How's the tour going? Is everything going good for you guys? �Peter Criss: Everything's going great. We're in New "fork, we had a huge snowstorm last night, got in really lateobviously you can tell I'm a little cranky because I just woke up about ten minutes ago and our phones were all blown outbut other- wise it's stopped snowing and we're going to Baltimore, �PR: I had heard that some of the original tensions from years ago were resurfacing, but then you scheduled al! these new dates. So, was there any truth to those allegations? �PC: No, that's ridiculous. �PR: Everybody's still getting along okay? �PC: Yeah, we wouldn't have rescheduled if we weren't We're doing these other cities because we passed them by, we felt bad 'cause everybody didn't get a chance to see us. So we rescheduled for our fans, to let them sec us we play stadiums up until Jury 5th. And after July 5th we're going back in the studio and do another album. Now we definitely have to be getting along to go do that! And then we plan on going back out in 98 so yeah, we're getting along great. �PR: You're getting ready to release another greatest hits (Greatest KISS to be released April 8), and there's been the Unplugged, and You Wanted The BestYou Got the Best. I was going to ask if any new music was being developed. �PC: No, it's not that we're releas- ing a greatest hits, we're releasing all new stuff. That's the excitement - we're really freakin' out because we haven't gone in the studio in proba- bly 20 years and recorded together and this will be all new stuff so we're excited. �PR: How did the reunion idea come to you? Was it a total surprise or was it alluded to over time or did you just get a call one day? �PC: It was a build-up. I was tour- ing with my guys, and then Ace (Frehley - guitarist) and I were doing a couple of tours and having a good time together. And I got a call from Gene to drop down, they were having a convention and it was a really big thing and I really wanted to take my daughter - she's never really seen all the big stat- ues and all the stuff they had laid out, KISStory books and stuff through the years ehc never real- ly got the gist of it. So I met Gene and Paul for lunch, had a great time, and started rehearsing with them for this thing and that went great I said 'Ace, you know, I just saw the guys, had a really great time, I was on stage we had a ball And then before I knew it, our man- ager George Suit called us and asked 'Do you guys want to do MTV and work with them?' And we were like, 'What are you crazy?' He was like, 'no no, they really want to do this, it could be very cool We walked on stage and the place went nuts, people were standing up, and started freaking out screaming We looked at each other kinda like, 'Wow, this is cool! This is better than we expected It was like magic Before I knew it I got back off tour and my manager's back on the phone ' saying, 'What do you think about a reunion?'

Together they make for a martial arts am PHOTO COURTESY OF NEW IMF. CINEMA Dale Williamson ASSISTANT LIFF.STYLE EDITOK Hong Kong superstar Jackie Chan has been repeatedly cited as the greatest action film actor working today, and he definitely deserves this respected title. Unlike the cliched" Hollywood heroes (Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme, etc.), Chan does not bore with oversized guns and cornball one-liners. If anything, Chan has made the action genre (a genre that is constantly choking on actors' egos, bloated budgets and formulaic scripts) fun again. While a typical Chan film may not exactly carry the intelligence of a Harrison Ford or Sean Connery action vehicle, any action fan will not be bothered by this fact. But of the fun of a Chan film revolves around its hokeyness, its silliness, its absurdity. Chan has been a huge box office draw in Hong Kong for a long time. There, he is the king of cinema. In fact, he is the number one action star in the world. His films consistently beat out American action films overseas. Despite his astonishing success, Chan has been struggling to gain recognition here in the States. His first stab at the American audience was in 1980 when he released The Big Braid, which turned out to be a disappointing disaster. Instead of allowing Chan to choreograph his own stunts and use his own stuntmen, the American studio restrained Chan and tried to make him fit America's idea of what the Asian hero should be like. The Big Brawl was followed in '81 by a supporting role in the Burt Reynolds racing epic, Gmnonball Rim, and, well, I don't need to say how bad a career move that was. With things looking grim in America, Chan returned to making Hong Kong films where he had more control over his product. Years and years went by and films were made, but mainstream America paid little attention to Chan, mainly because they didn't know he was out there. Then in 96, something clicked. Chan, who had been filming in such areas as Canada and Australia (areas which allowed him to do his own stunts his way), released Rumble m the Bronx in America. This film had already been a huge hit in Hong Kong, and America proved to be no different. Rumble opened number one at the American box office and gave Chan an established footing within the American mainstream. Now, Chan is constantly being courted by Hollywood producers to work for them. As great as this all may sound, Chan's career is now at a tricky crossroads. If he goes totally mainstream with Hollywood, his films will suffer as a result simply because he will not be allowed to do many of his own stunts, and the stunts won't nearly be as spectacular. However, Chan seems to have learned from his previous mistakes. Reportedly, Chan's newest potential Hollywood project, an action flick with Wesley Snipes entitled Confucius Brown, is suffering production problems because the American studio wants to do things its way Trie studio would rather put a gun in Chan's hand as opposed to wowing audiences with his physical prowess. Rumor has it that Chan is not pleased. Chan wants total control over his American films now, and he will not compromise. He hasn't forgotten his fail- ures with the American system the first time around. If Hollywood is unwilling to work with him, then he might have to resort to other options. If Chan manages to film without interference from Hollywood studios, if he can film in other countries and import his films, then all should be right with the martial arts world. A perfect example of how fun, exciting and mind boggling a Chan film can be, when Chan is allowed to strut his stuff his own way, is his newest video release, Supercop. Riding high off the success of Rumble, Supercop was re-released in American theaters last year. It had originally played in select American the- aters in 92 as PoBce Story III, and it has been floating around the bootleg video market for some time. Now even a Greenville fan can enjoy this rollicking romp. The plot of Supercop is, admittedly, ridicuious. Chan reprises his cop rate from the PoBce Story series, but this time he is teamed up with a female partner the amazing Michelle Khan. Together, they go undercover and battle a drug car- tel lead by the infamous Mr Big. As far as plot and character development goes, that's all you need to know. The thrusting force here is not deep storylines or intense character studies; instead, the action, humor and stunts make Suptmp a definitive Chan flick. Chan performs all his own stunts here, and the result simply leaves the view- er awestruck Chan broke several ribs making this film, and he's lucky that is aft he hurt. Chan makes the likes of Steven Segal and Chuck Norris look like pam- pered wimps by hanging from a flying helicopter, balancing on the edge of speeding train, and performing some of the best martial arts sequences you can find on celluloid. But Chan is not the only astounding physical presence here. Michelle Khan almost steals the show as Chan's partner. Her skills as a fighter are on Chan's level in every sense, and some of the film's best stunts are performed by hec Fn one sequence, Khan is thrown from a speeding van onto the windshield of anoth- er speeding vehicle. This is not a stunt person; it is Khan herself. Director Stanley Tong (Rumble in the Bronx, Jackie Chads First Strike, uses his camera to great effect, capturing the actors as they leap, fall, flip and crash alt over the screen. While many die-hard Asian cinema fans prefer Chan to direct his own films, Tong is a worthy and welcomed substitute. Another saving grace for Supetrop, and Chan films in general, is the fact that it doesn't take itself too seriously. Humor abounds, most of it slapstick In many ways, Chan is the Asian equivalent of Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin, two actors he greatly admires. Chan's ability to blend humor within the action is a rare skill few have mastered, yet it is an essential ingredient that lifts Supetrop several levels above karate crap like Chuck Norris' TV show Walker, Texas Ranger. For all those new to the wacky world of Jackie Chan, be sure to keep the tape playing during the end credits. A trademark of a Chan film is the fact that he show� outtakes where accidents occurred during filming. In one outtakc, we wit- ness Chan nearly falling off a running train. In another, we see Khan actually fall off the car she was supposed to fall onto. This is not Chan's way of exploiting the violence in his films. He does this to illustrate that what he and his stunt crew do is dangerous and that people can, and do, get hurt when performing these stunts. (Supposedly, Chan, as wdl as anyone working on a Chan film, is blacklisted from all insurance companies in Hong Kong.) Chan is an inspiration to any filmmaker or lover of film. He is a dedicated, passionate man working in a difficult business. Chan once said that he would do anything for his movies. Watching Supercop one would have to believe him. While Supercop is not Chan's best work (check out the first rhhee Sury or Drunken Master 2 for examples of his best), it still towers above most action films put out by the American mainstream within the last decade. If you're bored with Hollywood fluff, give -Asian fluff a shot. Chan is just one of many great Hong Kong talents pushing cinema to the edge. But that opinion can be saved for another article. ) 8 Thursday.

Issuing credit cards to college students stirs debate Gene Tharpe KNIGHT.RiniJF.RTRIBUNE NF.WS In recent years, some banks have solicited students heavily with credit card offers, beginning with high school seniors. Estimates are that at least five mil- lion college students have one or more credit cards, and many are racking up debts that might follow them for years. Students are legal adults at age 18 and can sign contracts. But is it ethical to market to them? "I surely think there is an ethics issue to be considered said Janet .Adams, associate professor of manage- ment at Kennesaw State University "It's somewhat analogous to other practices, such as tobacco companies' targeting young people she said. "Essentially, what they are doing is trying to get people hooked at an early age on the credit lifestyle Nancy Judy, spokeswoman for the American Bankers Association, defended the practice of marketing to college students. "We are talking about adults, not kids she said. "At 18 or older, college students are adults, and although a few get too many cards and get in VtSA trouble, the others should not be denied the benefits of credit Adams said she could see "a posi- tive side" to the issue. They (the SEE CREDIT. PAGE 10 ' ' Starflyer 59 continued from page 7 loud ones are free to really rip loose and rock. Though Martin has skills on the bass and drums, the finesse that Everett has on the drums and the melodic quality of Campuzano's bass add a new dimension to an already strong outfit. The album opens with a rapid drum roll and segues into the not- quite-glam growl of "The Voyager a steady rocker about the precarious bal- ance between God and rock. Martin's vocals are thin ribbons that almost get lost in the messy noise pop. The lyrics are minimalist, leaving much to be defined by the mood of the music sur- rounding them. At times the melody is more evoca- tive than the actual lyrics, bringing to mind the sonic textures of My Bloody Valentine. Take, for example, the entire lyric to "The Hearttaken" "If you lead, you know it's hard to be, Until you go you know it's hard to know, or just believe, Because the Hearttaker makes it easier just believe The Zen-like ambiguity of the lyrics lend themselves to be inter- preted by the drone of the moog space sounds, the echo-drenched guitar and the marching rhythm. The effect is subtle (a word that most Christian bands ought to took up in the dictio- nary) and severe. "Harmony" bears strong resem- blance to early Ocean Blue, or to the happy concoctions of Blur, with some spooky falsettos courtesy of Wryne Everett and a lament about loss. "AH You Want Arc The Things I Need" is a smarting slap at the Christian music industry. Martin's voice is almost too sweet here, espe- cially against the scorching guitar crunch and rhythm behind it as he laments. "You Think You're Radical" is a cri- tique of so-called "alternative culture" set to an almost-country-westem slide guitar and a slow jazz beat. The ballad sounds like it was recorded in a high school gym, or a canyon. "The Translator" is a snappy cross between Smashing Pumpkins and Motley Crue. The song rocks, but in a very glam sort of way (there's a tam- bourine during the chorus) and the decorative sounds Martin evokes from his guitar are not quite Billy Corgan trademarks. "The Boulevard" starts off like a Nirvana single and folds back into a more traditional Starflyer sound, while somehow managing to sound like a street in the seedier parts of Vegas. "Help Me When You're Gone" fea- tures a gorgeous clean guitar and soft, crisp mixing of Martin's shy-boy voice. The soulful Rhodes organ in the back- ground is smooth, very smooth. The album closes out with the Beatles-esque coda "Everyone -But Me which has an imaginary Rirtgo bouncing along to the rockabilly belt and Martin's happy-go-lucky vocals. It's a shame that Christian record companies continue to market such disappointments as Audio Adrenaline or Jars of Clay. It is understandable that the secular music business is all about sales and money; but you'd think that the Christians would be aching to encourage superior work in their artists. After all, they are sup- posed to be doing this for God aren't they? There was a time when Medieval artists thought that it was a sin to paint realistically. Perhaps Christians think its a sin to play well and write powerful songsPerhaps its time for. another Renaissance. Perhaps Starflyer 59 is the beginning of that rebirth. MARK A.

The lead singer, a white guy med Ian Svcnonius, has his impcr- ion down, complete svith strieks, stage mines, and pscudo- alwfrogyny In fact, he does Prince (or !AKAI' or squiggle or hieroglyph or Miatever it is Prince is calling himself tfitse dass) better than Prince does. Originally members of a punk band called Nation of I lysses. Sscnonius.

All of the applause, ambi- ent crowd noise, addresses to the audience, and breaks in the "set" were created in-studio. Their second release. After Dark. carries on where Destmat&m left off. Actually recorded live this time at the Tine China club in London, the band pro.es that their first album ssas not a flash in the pan. Including song titles that sound like they're right out of Prince's demo iloset. Blue is Beautiful "Vs. Culture' and "Gospel 2000 the band takes their "Cospel Yeh-Yeh" music farther than Prince has dared in a long time. Some of the tracks fea- tured on After Dark are found on Destination: "Don't Mind the Mind We Can't Be Contained" and "(Here Comes) The Judge But don't fear, this isn't a retread record, far from it. On After Dark, the Make Up final- ly prose they have what it takes to master a live audience. They blaze through ten songs in their short 31 minute set, yet there is never a feel- ing of immediacy in the music. Sure there's energy aplenty, but the band never seems to be in too much of a hurry. They know svhat they svant to say and exactly how to say it. And the crowd sounds as if it couldn't agree more. Having proved their live chops were intact, it seems that the band wanted to step assay from the stage for a bit and focus on their sound, the ssas they svork as individuals, so they svent back into a studio (Dub Narcotic, to be exact) for Sound Verite. There are no audience sounds found on this record, no clapping, no shouts from the crowd, no MC's intro- ducing the show. The only extraneous sounds you hear are the members of the band talking svith each other in the studio as the record begins. It is the Make Up themselves, plain and simple. As After Dark included songs from Destination, Soutul Verite includes songs from After Dark. And it is svith these tsvo repeated tracks, "Gospel 2000" and "Make Up is Lies that the real difference between the live Make Up sound and the in-studio sound can be heard. .After getting used to hearing the band live, it's kind of eerie to hear a song fade out and another song begin svithout any crossd noise ot applause betsveen. What stands out in the Make Up's sound svhen you take that audience assay is the groove that Gamboa and Mae lay down. Although you can hear the groove in their live music, it is more subtle there and often times it is drowned out by crossd noise and Ssenonius' shrieks. Here it sounds crisp, clean and every bit as good, if not better. Sound Verite is a short, sharp and intense package. Like After Dark, it clocks in at a mere 31 minutes and also includes ten tracks. lAickily for you, both albums are not only good, they're cheap. Because the albums have come out on two different independent labels. Dischord and K Records, the prices don't get unfairly inflated like at the bigger record labels. For a little more money than a sin- gle CD from the big boys costs, you can pick up svhat is essentially a dou- ble album from the MakeUp. What a bargain. It's good to know the Make I p are just as funky and groovy as they have ever been. Just listening to the,sc albums makes you ssveat. You can't help the urge to get up and dance. If only Prince could sound as good as these guys.

April 3, 1997 The East Carolinian Owner sees IRL as showcase for grassroots racing INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Greg Ellington is the kind of car owner Tony George had in mind when he founded the Indy Racing League. Long on enthusiasm, short of cash, Ellington got his start on the small ovals of the Midwest but was unable to get any closer than the fringes of big-time rac- ing until George's series came along. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway owner's break from Championship Auto Racing Teams last year was designed to draw more participation from drivers and owners, like Ellington, who might not otherwise get a chance. "To me, he has put forth a series that will try to showcase more of a grass- roots-type racing versus the exotic-ness that is CART now Ellington said. "Drivers are more important in this series than they are in the other series. "Everyone has similar equipment, and it's the driver and the preparation that produce a winning effort, not money. .And chat's what's most attractive about it Ellington has formed his own race team, Ellington Motorsports, based in Lafayette, Ind and is making plans to run the full IRL circuit in 1998 with Indy veteran Phil Krueger as the driver. He has landed several associate spon- sorships but still is looking for a primary sponsor. Without the IRL, he said, he wouldn't have gotten even this far. "To be honest, I don't think I could afford CART he said. "You're looking at some teams with budgets of $10 million. Some spend less than that but some spend quite a bit more. "The IRL is working, and if you caught the race last week in Phoenix, that's exactly what it's all about. You had a guy (Jim Guthrie) who went, maybe not from rags to riches but from rags to a little better rags. That's what the IRL is all about Cleveland Indians pitcher charged with rape CLEVELAND (AP) - A 26-year-old woman testified that Cleveland Indians pitcher Jose Mesa struck her in the mouth with a bathroom door and fondled her against her will in a motel room. Cuyahoga County Judge Thomas Curran would not allow the woman to tes- tify about what happened to her friend, whom prosecutors say was raped by Mesa during a car ride from a nightclub. Mesa is charged with rape under an Ohio law that expands the definition to include penetration other than intercourse. He also is charged with two counts of gross sexual imposition, felonious assault and theft. NCAA championship doesn't get the ratings NEW YORK (.AP) - The NCAA men's championship basketball game between Arizona and Kenrucky drew a bigger television audience than last year, but still was the third-lowest ever on CBS in 23 showings. Monday night's game, won by Arizona 84-79 in overtime, drew an 18.9 Nielsen rating and a 31 share. That was up 3 percent from last year's 18.3 rat- ing and 29 share for Kentucky's victory over Syracuse. Tennessee's 68-59 victory over Old Dominion in the women's championship game Sunday night drew a 4.0 rating on ESPN, meaning it was seen in 2.85 mil- lion households. Last year's Georgia-Tennessee game had a 3.7 rating. Robinson season opens with Montreal win; Yankees lose (AP)-Montreal was the first team to win in 1997, befitting the start to a season dedicated to Jackie Robinson. The Expos scored the winning run in the ninth inning - on a bases-loaded walk - to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1 in Montreal, the city where Robinson briefly played before joining the Brooklyn Dodgers. As a tribute to Robinson breaking the color barrier 50 years ago, special com- memorative balls were used in each team's home opener Tuesday and players and umpires wore Robinson patches on their uniforms. Cincinnati's Deion Sanders made a personalized tribute to Robinson by hik- ing up his pants like Robinson wore his. And in Seattle, Robinson's daughter, Sharon, threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Mariners played the world champion New York Yankees. Following a snowout in Boston, a snowstorm in New York and arctic tem- peratures in both Detroit and Chicago last year, baseball adjusted its schedule in an attempt to beat the cold weather. .All five domes in the majors were used Tuesday, and every West Coast club in both leagues was scheduled to begin the year at home this week. Sheffield agrees to record $61 million deal MLAMI (AP) - Gary Sheffield agreed today to the largest contract package in baseball history, a $61 million, six-year extension with the Florida Marlins. The contract runs from 1998 through 2003. In terms of total money it sur- passes the $55 million, five-year contract Albert Belle signed with the Chicago White Sox. San Francisco's Barry Bonds is third at $43.75 million over six years. Sheffield hit .314 last season with 42 homers and 120 RBIs. Florida made the move following an offseason in which the Marlins com- mitted more than $89 million to free agents, giving the money primarily to pitcher Alex Fernandez ($35 million over five years), outfielder Moises Alou ($25 million over five years) and infielder-outfielder Bobby Bonilla ($23.3 mil- lion over four years). Sheffield. 28, is getting $6.1 million in 1997, the final season of a $24.45 mil- lion, four-vear contract. His new deal calls for $10 million a season from 1998- 2002 and $11 million in 2003. Florida has an $11 million option for 2004. In addition, the Marlins will give Sheffield a $2.5 million salary advance on Jan. 6, 1998 - $500,000 for each of the first five seasons of the new contract. Sheffield and the Marlins are believed to have agreed to most of the points of the deal in late February. But because extensions agreed to after opening day are not counted in calculations for a team's 1997 luxury tax, they held off announcing it until today. Still, management's Player Relations Committee may investigate to see whether the deal should count to the Marlins' current payroll, a management official said on the condition he not be identified. In addition to salary, Sheffield could earn a $150,000 bonus if he wins the NL MVP award, $100,000 if he finishes second, $75,000 for third, $50,000 for fourth and $25,000 for fifth. Men's tennis team defeats Seahawks MIKE DANISKA SENIOR WRITER The ECU men's tennis team � trounced UNC- Wilmington 7-0 in less than favorable, conditions Tuesday. t "It was hard, especially because of rhe wind Brett Rowley said. "The balls were dancing up in the wind; we had a tough time Even though it was windy, both teams continued to fight. "It was frustrating, but you have got to put it behind you, it is a part of the game Wes Kintner said. "You cannot have perfect conditions every day The matches also marked the return of Alan Farfour, who was an assistant coach under ECU's Head Coach Bill Moore. The victory was the sec- ond in a row for the Pirates and improved their record to 9-5 overall and 3-1 in conference play. "Today (Tuesday) was one of the better team matches that we have played all year Rowley said. "Everyone came together and got fired up The level of play that the Pirates demonstrated is characteristic of this talented group and justifies raised expectations. "Talent wise, this is the best 'earn that ECU had ever had Rowley said. "We have a lot of talented players; we just have to come together as a team. Because we have a bunch of new guys, it may take another year for us to start kicking butt The Pirates were led by the play of Roope Kalajo, who dis- patched his opponent in number one sin- gles 6-1, 6-3. Number two sin- gles player, Kintner snatched a remarkable 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 victory away from his Wi Imington opponent. "It was four all in ihe third set and he was serving Kintner said. "It went to deuce, but I won the game. I then served out to win the match Wilmington native Kenny Kirby continued the Pirates' dom- ination by defeating a close friend and long time rival, Chase Hodges 6-3, 7-5. "The second set got close towards the end and it could have gone either way Kirby said. "I had a couple of breaks and some shots just went my way. The home court advantage also helped a lot Nils Alomar, playing number four singles mastered his opponent en rout to a 6-1, 6-2 victory. The win, his 12th, ties him with Kirby for most individual wins on the team. Number five singles Brett Rowley ended a personal slump by outplaying his opponent to a 6-2, 6- 4 victory. "Overall it was a good match personally because I had struggled the past two matches Rowley Doubles partners Wes Kintner (L) and Kenny Kirby (R) won their doubles match against UNC- W.on Monday, 8-3.

"I was in a bit of a slump, but this win gave me more confidence Stephen Siebenbrunner completed the Pirates' sweep of singles matches, winning straight sets 6-1. 6-1. In doubles play, Kalajo and Alomar teamed up to capture an 8-3 victory. Kintner and Kirby won their double's match by the same score of 8-3. "We played pretty well Kintner said. "We pret- ty much controlled the whole match, which was pretty good because it was only the third time that Kenny and I had played together Rowley and Derek Slate, the number three duo, concluded doubles play, also winning 8-3. "Derek and I played pretty good Rowley said. "UNC-Wilmington fought hard, but we played harder from the mental aspect Miles Alomar, who was paired up with Roope Kalajo, hits a return shot.

All-Stars were the only sprinters at the meet to outrun ECU's squads. In the 4x100 meter, Chris Rey, Brian Johnson, Vaughn Monroe and Bevan Foster crossed the finish line at 40.55, while the All-Stars came in at 39.47. "We ran our fastest time so far this season, but our hand-offs weren't as clean as they should've been Rey said. "We are still looking to break the 40-second barrie Rey said running against a profes- sional team makes his relay team stronger. The N.C. All-Stars are more experienced, but ECU's squads still headed into the events looking for a win. "Of the 36 teams out there, we were definitely the most dominate college team Rey said. In the 4x200 meter relay, Johnson, James Alexander, Darrick Ingram and Dwight Henry finished in 1:25.23, while the All-Stars came out once again on top with a finish time of 1:22.94. Although Alexander agrees with Rey, in saying that competing against a professional team is often benefi- cial, he feels it is unfair that the All- Stars were able to participate in the meet. "The N.C. All-Stars should have a league of their own. You never see a professional football team playing a college team, and the same should be true for track Alexander said. "That would be like me going back and run- ning against high school athletes ECU's 4x400 meter relay squad of Alexander, Ingram, Damon Davis and Mike Miller tied for first place with "He ran our fastest time so far this season, but our hand offs sreren't as clean as they shoutfie been Chris Rey ECU track team member the University of North Carolina in 3:07.23. Upon further review (after the meet), officials awarded first place honors to UNC. "We have not run to our potential yet this season Alexander said. "We will probably run faster this weekend at the Texas Relays To prepare for this weekend's meet, the men have focused on cleaning up their hand- offs, and always, on maintaining a positive tude. "We are heading into the Texas Relays with confidence Rey said. "In track and field, anything can hap- pen The meet will be held in Austin, Texas at the University of Texas and will feature several nationally ranked teams, including the University of Oklahoma. Oklahoma currently car- ries the 1995-96 indoor and outdoor titles, and recently became the 1996 mental atti- indoor champions. ECU's first run- ning is scheduled for Friday at 9 a.m with finals scheduled for Saturday. The women's 4x200 meter relay squad also finished second at the Raleigh Relays. Rasheca Barrow, Amanda Johnson, CarmenWeldon, and Kai Eason finished in 1:40.18, while first place honors were awarded to the girls from Seton Hall, who finished in 1:37.29. Michelle Clayton dominated the field events with a third place finish in the hammer throw, an 11th place finish in discus, and 12th place finish in the shotput. The men's and women's track teams are well on their way to estab- lishing themselves as dominant teams in the CAA Motivation, deter- mination and the ability to work with one another is leading the teams down the pathway of victory. ECU SPORTS BRIEFS The baseball team is currently one game behind Virginia Commonwealth (7-2) in the conference standings with a 6-3 conference record and overall of 19-15. (This does not include last nights game with N.C. State, results were not available.) Richmond, ODU and William & Mary all stand with 5-4 records, while James Madison is 4-5.

(AP) - This is not what coach Dave Cowens had in mind for the Charlotte Hornets' stretch run. Charlotte went into the final month of the season with its magic number to clinch a playoff berth hav- ing been stuck on three for more than a week. The Hornets have lost two in a row - their worst slide since early January - heading into tonight's home game against Atlanta. Charlotte is without injured Anthony Mason, who leads the team in rebounding and is second in scoring and assists, and top scorer Glen Rice is sick and may also be unable to play against the Hawks, who have won seven in a row. "You want to peak at the right time Cowens said, "but right now we're kind of beat up, so it's sort of hard to tell where we are The Hornets told Rice to skip their practice Tuesday after he exhibited flu-like symptoms, and he was listed as questionable for the Atlanta contest. "My guess is since he's coming off being sick, he's probably going to be weak Cowens said. "Even if he plays, he's probably not going to be able to play the minutes that he has been Rice is averaging 43 minutes per game this season and is scoring 26.4 points, the third-highest figure in the NBA. He has averaged 30 points over "You want to peak at the right time,but right mm we're kind of beat up, so it's sort of hard to tell where we are Dave Cowens Charlotte Horneis head coach the last 43 games, including 41 games of 20 or more. 20 games of 30 or more and five of 40 or more. Rice's surge has helped rhe Hornets play themselves into contention for what would tie the third playoff berth in franchise history, but Charlotte has stum- bled in recent days. The Hornets are 1-2 since Mason suffered a partially rorn tendon in his right foot, an injury that is expected to keep him sidelined at least through next week. "Other guys just need to step up Cowens said. Rice's playing time would likely go to Rafael Addison and Donald Roval. Addison has appeared in 32 games this season and has averaged 8.5 minutes and 2.9 points. Royal, obtained in a midseason trade, is aver- aging 3.7 points in 13.8 minutes. Without Mason in the lineup, the Hornets' rebounding average has dropped by four per game. In Charlotte's two most recent games, a pair of one-point losses, the Hornets have allowed their opponents to shoot a combined 54.1 percent. Cowens put the Hornets through a 2 12-huur workout Tucsduv at their Fort Mill training complex. A substan- tial portion of Charlotte's practice was devoted to fundamentals, especially on defense. "Just because it's the last month of the season Cowens said, "doesn't mean we don't want to continue to improve r" �. 12 Tnarsriay. April 3. 1997 sports The East Carolinian Wildcats return home to 40,000 cheering fans i.� TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Al Coxon, a retired sports writer and editor, always wanted a team to root for. He had to remain neutral for professional reasons. Now he's got the Arizona Wildcats, the nation's basketball champions. Coxon and his wife Marty were decked out in red Arizona Final four T-shirts as they and about 45,000 others welcomed the team home Tuesday from its triumphant Final four victories over North Carolina and Kentucky that gave Arizona the NCAA tide. "I always wanted to have a team, root for 'em, act nuts, but I couldn't do that working for a paper said Coxon, who worked for the Chicago Daily News and then the Waukegan, III News-Sun before retiring in 1985. The Coxons started following the Wildcats that year, when they began spending winters in Tucson. He said they haven't been disap- pointed. Nor were the thousands of others who took off work, or played hooky, to join in the citywidc cele- bration. Then too, neither were the Wildcats players and coaches, when their motorcade pulled into Arizona Stadium to find a sea of red-shirted, wildly demonstrative fans filling most of the 57,000 seats, screaming like Beatles fans. "It's unbelievable, it's unbeliev- able said Miles Simon, who was named the Final four tournament's most outstanding player. "Thank you all for coming Arizona coach Lute Olson told the crowd, "You're the No. 1 fans in the world. If anyone doubted that, they needed to be with us as we drove into the stadium. This is un- BE-lievable! "Every street corner, every street, people were there with signs, red shirts on, welcoming us Olson said. An airplane towed a "Congrats Cats" banner while helicopters cir- cled intermittently outside the sta- dium. As the motorcade entered the stadium, deafening cheers erupted. And as the team worked its way across the field to where risers were set up, hundreds of red and blue balloons were released into the bright blue sky while kids of all ages clamored for autographs or high- fives. The noise and enthusiasm prompted Arizona football coach Dick Tomey to compare it with the atmosphere in Arizona Stadiurh when his team defeated then-No. 1 Washington in 1992. "I didn't expect this many peo- ple. It just shows all the support we have center AJ. Bramlett said. "It's a credit to our fans Added backup center Donnell Harris, one of the heroes of the game against Kentucky: "It was a wonderful feeling to see everybody come out and supporting us The team, escorted by a phalanx of police officers and security per- sonnel, had to make its way off the field through fans lined up diago- nally across the grass. � forward Michael Dickerson col- lapsed in the dressing room after the celebration. He was treated for dehydration and was given oxygen, but wasn't hospitalized, officials said. About the same time, President Clinton called to invite Olson and the team to the White House, though no date was set. Olson said Clinton joked about playing for the team once his injured knee healed, and Olson offered tongue-in-cheek o send the team's trainer to assure that the president's knee received proper attention. Police encountered severe prob- lems Monday night and early Tuesday when rowdy revelers who flooded Fourth to Avenue near cam- pus created a disturbance. Among other things, an undercover police car was flipped, officers used a pep- per gas to disperse a crowd that began throwing rocks and bottles, and six people were arrested. Additionally, a police officer and a television cameraman were injured, one by a rock and the other by a thrown glass. A TV broadcast- ing truck was damaged extensively, and a vehicle belonging to another station was battered.
