PIRATESSHHi What do you think the president of the UNC System does? the following primary steps of preparation should be taken care of if a humcanc seems hkch: check flashlights and their batteries; check battery-operated radios and televisions: make sure large antennas, satellite dishes and other outdoor objects such as lawn furniture arc tied down or put avvav. double-check evac- uation routes, review rhe status of yout flood. home and automobile insurance policies. As the chances of an oncoming humcanc increase more preparation and precautions should be taken. One should check the win- dows and shutters on the house, making any repairs necessary. Make arrangements for pets in rhe event you have to evacuate, fill the gas tank in the rat as carts as possible, as service station lines tend to get long after a humcanc warning, and be sure to have plenty of cash on hand.

Trustees briefly discussed whether or not additions to Dowdy- Rcklen Stadium will be completed by the Sept. 13 game against Vke Forrest. Contractors working on the stadium will have to work a third shift to complete the upper deck. As a precaution, the University has stopped selling tickets for the new seats. If the worst happens, the over- flow of students will be temporarily seated in the end zones. "Wfe will continue to hope and to pray that the stadium renovation will be completed by Sept. 14 although the contractor has experienced delays said Eakin.

(AP) - Federal immigration officials overreacted when they detained 17 Mexicans in trying to prove a connection between the incident and a smuggling operation in New Ifork City, friends of those detained said. The Mexicans, most of whom are speech- and heanng-impaired, lived in two adjoining houses and shared rent and expenses. Federal aaents on Friday raided the two houses in Sanford after receiving a tip that the 14 adults and three children were forced to make beads, key chains and other trinkets and sell them. The Mexicans were taken to an Immigration and Naturalization Services office in Charlotte. Earlier in the week, authorities found 57 deaf Mexicans living in two cramped apartments in New Tfork. In that case, eight people have been charged with run- ntnc a smuggling ring and keepir the Mexicans against their will. Two undocu- mented deaTimmigrants from Mexico were arrested in Chicago over the weekend on similar charges. The Chicago defendants are linked to a similar operation in New York, INS officials said.

I teach English as a second language. I'm the coordina- tor of the program for Roanoke City Schools Martin said. An added fringe benefit of teach- ing, he said, was that it gave him more time to write.

The body was released Saturday to one funeral home but was later transferred to another because of media scrutiny, said Therman Wilkes, who is responsible for the shipment of Cunanan's remains. "We wanted to do this as quietly as possible, wilkes said. The remains will be flown to Glenn Abbey Memorial Park in Bonita, Calif.

Cunanan killed himself on Wednesday with the same .40 caliber gun he allegedly used to kill three of his victims, including Versace. Authorities continued to examine Cunanan's activity pnor to his suicide and whether any one was aiding him. ing for an oncoming storm. However, some storms have been known to move at speeds almost double this rate. According to the National Weather Service, once a hurricane watch is declared for an area, the storm will make landfall within the specified region within 36 hours of the start of the watch. The hurricane watch covers a broad region, and this area should expect at least gale-force winds (30 mph), high waterflash flood situations, and even tornadoes. By this time, more serious precautions should be made as such winds often stay at hurricane strength even hun- dreds of miles inland. According to the National Weather Service, hurricane Hugo (1989) battered Charlotte, North Carolina (which is about 175 miles inland) with gusts near 100 mph, downing trees and power lines, and Icausing massive disruption. And, of course, last year hurricane Fran did damage to the areas surrounding Greenville and Raleigh before it made its way up through Virginia. Once a hurricane watch has been declared for your region, there's a good chance you'll feel the brunt of the storm, according to the National Weather Service. If you live in a low- lying area, you should evacuate immediately. The storm is less than 24 hours away, and you've got lots still to do. Board up windows around the house, or tape them up with lots of masking tape, and turn off your gas lines. Check on the safety of elderly relatives if they live close by Be sure to turn your fridge all the way up in order to keep your food fresh for as long as possible. Keep the television andor radio on regularly for weather and evacuation updates. Write down the names and locations of evacua- tion shelters dose to your home. It is recommended that you do not stay alone during hurricane weather. Not only might you need help in case something serious hap- pens, you also have to have a way to constantly monitor what's going on throughout the storm's passing, which is not an easy task for one per- son over a 36 hour period. Once the hurricane has hit, you should stay put. There arc times when conditions change, however, and you may need to leave the house during the storm. Falling trees may be threatening the house, serious flooding may be imminent, or you need to get med- ical attention for you or a family member. If it is absolutely necessary that you drive, drive slowly as it makes it easier to watch for debris and obstructions, and high winds and slick conditions can easily throw you off the road. Keep your trips short if at all pos- sible. Head to the closest evacuation shelter, police station or hospital. If you need to get someplace further along, there will be people at those locations to help you. releases CD's only 11?

The biggest residence hall room on campus is in Jarvis, and the room size is 11TV x i . . Now three people will be crammed in a room, not to mention that there is still a waiting list for people to get in. - It's obvious ECU is becoming a more popular school.

Ronald McDonald: funny clown- tvpe person or member of the Corleone family? McDonald's, known for the fast food and billions served, is earning another reputation. The reputation is one of corporate mafia. The Ronald McDonald we all know and love engages in practices that would make many sick: everything from intimidating employees to breaking and entering The McMob has taken to "influ- encing" their own employees to lie to police. In France, Monsieur. Lamti Hassen, a McDonald's employee, was accused of armed robbery at the restaurant where he works. Hassen was accused of the robbery by a fellow employee. The reason behind this accusation was a simple one: greed. At the time, Hassen was the reprsentativedelegate to the union. McDonald's like most international corporations, does not like unions. McDonald's even tried to bribe Hassen. Hassen has a chance to be fired with a severance pay of 855 previously unpaid overtime hours, paving off the remainder of his car and help in finding a job outside McDonald's. The rewards came with one stipulation: renounce union involvement. Hassen decided against this tvpe of extortion. Having employees lie to police is bad enough, but forcing them to work in a pool of sewage is disgust- ing A McDonald's store of the year did just that. This marvelous store of the year had a little problem with their sewage system: it did not drain. Since the drain was clogged, sewage was forced back up the pipe. The kitchen area floor was covered with raw sewage. The employees followed their managers' orders and worked. Some employees had to overturn bun tins to stand on while they worked amidst the two inches of sewage. This wading in liquid feces hap- pened twice at this store. I guessed the second rime made it store of the vear. Another case of the McDonald's crime involved espionage. McDonald's hired an investigation agency to infiltrate the most notori- ous of all crime families, the London Greenpeace organization. A court in the United Kingdom had evidence presented to it that investigators had broken into the London Greenpeace office. First Nixorr, now Ronald McDonald. When will the insanitv stop? The breaking and entering is not McDonald's first brush with the law. In 1973, McDonald's was ordered to stop using Sic detector test when hir- ing staff. Was the lie detector used to weed out convicted felons or maybe those w ith a tendency to take home a little extra cash? No, the lie detec- tor was used in the hiring process to find out if prospective employees had union sympathies. Some business-tvae people will sav business is all about profit. These same people will also say if the employees do not like working conditions they can leave, and that McDonald's has a duty to look out for its investors. The part 1 do not like is the business types would be right. The dirty to look out for investors does not include exploiting people, forcing people to work in crap and criminaiiarceny; The business types, -I would- refer them to Miehael Moore, who says, "If business is all about profit bow about selling, crack?" From what 1 hear and see, crack has an extremely high profit margin. The bad part is not that McDonald's engaged in this kind of corporate crime. The bad part is they are not the only ones who arc in the news. How many other corpora- tions are eager to squeeze employ- ees for less money?

Grandfather worked as a butcher during the 1930s for $5 a week. Father grew up with three brothers and two sisters, all sharing two bed- rooms and one bathroom. I remem- ber the tiny house from my carry childhood. I remember the concrete front porch, painted gray with speck- les of chipped paint here and there. I remember the hole in the living room wall covered over with plaster, once connecting to a furnace (before my aunts and uncles paid to have central heating put in for my grand- parents).

Friends make college life bearable College is a time when lifelong friendships are formed I personally believe that men make great friends. A tiny sign hangs on the front door of mv apartment. It reads, "A friend walks in when the rest of the world walks out Friendship is a strange thing It comes in all shapes, sizes, colors and ages. It's easy to find and just as easy to lose. But it is. by far, one of the most wonderful and fulfilling aspects of lite. College is a time when lifelong friendships are formed. You rely on your friends for almost everything whether it's their opinion, the truth, a ride home or whatever. You are affected by their actions and words as tfiey are by yours. I personally believe that men make great friends - well most of the time they So! Three of my closest bud- dies are guys, and even though each is so different from the other, a strong thread of similarity runs through them. They are all brutally frank, impatient and pretend to act as if nothing bothers them. But they are also very helpful, kindhcarted and arc good listeners. Take my good friend Marc, for exam- ple. Here's a guy who has a straight 4.0 GPA and yet doesn't think twice about photcopying loads of his notes for me just because I've been too lazy in class to take my own. Recently, a professor asked me to give an impromtu presentation in class. Of course, I was ill prepared and, despite my protests, I had to walk to the front of the room, where I mumbled a few incoherent sen- tences. Then, feeling totally miser- able, I returned to my seat. Marc leaned over and said, "Ciood job That simple gesture meant a lot to me and I immediatelv felt better about the whole incident. He politely listens to all of my rarrrings and ravihg?, which are more fre- quent than I'd like to admit. However, he is not one to mince words either. He tells me that even though he reads all of my columns (yipeee), he finds them quite pes- simistic and wishes I would lighten up. .v Ash, who happens to be my neighbor and best friend for these past five years, always gives me.the.same advice. "Get over it he says, regardless of the fact that I was hit by a drunk driver, had pneumonia and failed a couple of tests!

Joanne, who is my partner-in-crime and co-sufferer in our French classes toother, has been a steadfast and wonderful friend. Even though, she spends hours attending to her family and home as well as going to school full time, she alwavs has time to listen to my numerous gripes and fears. Not only that, she cooks delicious food, which I enjov tremendously. Friendship is definitely one of life's most' precious treasures. Don't waste another moment - make a friend.

So these are the mid-year-mid-sum- mer-albums-1-wan ted-to-re vie w-but- haven't-reviewed-so-I'm-gonna-review- them-now mini-reviews. Got it? -Bantam Rooster, Deal Me In: Bantam Rooster are two Michigan guys, Eric Cook on drums and T. Jackson Potter on guitar and vocals, who kick up a lot of rock-n-roll dust Crypt Records style. Their hell-bent rockabilly is not terribly original, but they make The Rev. Horton Heat look like a choir boy. The 16 songs on the album clock in at a little more than 30 minutes. The very raw and primitive "Lawdy Lawdy "Miss Luxury and "In the Manner to Which I'm Accustomed" are juvenile delin- quent rock at its best. ' -Lynnfield Pioneers, Istmp Comp E.P: Noisy bastards, these guys are. Lynnfield Pioneers remind me of a less-bluesy, more- spastic Chrome Cranks. A lot of the vocals are rap-based, but the band's sound is not akin to the angry-goatee rock of Rage Against the Machine; songs like "Latoya" and "Contact High" are closer in spirit to Oraagr-era Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. These guys have a full-length album slated for release in October on Matador. -Link Wray, Missing I-inks, volumes 1-4: Dunn native and original punk Link Wray is a bad man. Norton Records is giving this American original his dues with this four volume collection of hard to find Wray songs. So far, I've only listened to Vol. 2 (Big City After Dark), which has a lot of good stuff and some not so good stuff that would have been better off not released. The title track, "The Bad and the Good" and "Street Fighter" are Link Wray at his high- octaned best. However, some of the live cover songs cause the album to drag; "I Want You I Need You I Love You I hate you. Flipp Flipp 3 OUT OF 10 -Cagney and Lacee, Six Feet of Chain: Dean Wareham, from Luna, and his wife, Claudia Silver, released this small collec- tion of country and soul covers. Standouts on the album include "Memphis" and "Greyhound Goin' Somewhere Minnie Riperton's "Lovin You" is where sweet turns to wretched sap. Fortunately, it's one of the album's few blemishes. -Freakwater, Darning Under Hater: This album was originally released in 1991, but Thrill Jockey re-released it earlier this year. Catherine Ann Irwin and Eleventh Dream Day's Janet Beveridge Bean both have gor- geous voices and do justice to the memory of the Carter Family on songs such as "Selfishness in Man" and "You're Still on My Mind There are few original songs on the album, but "Your Goddamn Mouth" gives listeners an early example of lrwin's songwriting abilities. -Palace Music, Lost Blues anil Other Songs: Nice, little, quiet songs. This is a collection of seven inches and other stuff released by- Palace and its ever changing name (report- edly Will Oldham is dropping the Palace name after this release). "Ohio River Boat Song "Valentine's Day" and "Little Blue Eyes" are good examples of Oldham's swooning folk music. If you can avoid falling asleep while listening to this, you'll love it. -Yo La Tengo, Can Hear the Heart Beating As One: I think this is my favorite album title of the year. Yo La Tengo has demon- strated that it cannot be labeled on past albums, and this album is no different. From the feedback-full, yet melodic "Sugarcube" to the country sweetness of "One PM Again Yo La Tengo proves itself capable of many styles, yet also capable of a cohesive album. -Guided by Voices, Mag Farxhig Robert Pollard is back with a new band (Tobin Sprout and the old Voices help out on a few songs). The album, perhaps, shows a more abrasive side of Guided by Voices, but the sweet melodies and Pollard's pop-perfect voice are still evident on "I am a Tree 'Bulldog Skin" and "Choking Tara It'll be interesting to see how long Pbllard and Cobra Verde stick together. -Mission of Burma, Signets, Calls, ami Manhes: Rykodisc is rc-releasing a good part of the Mission of Burma catalog.

PAGl 5 Pat Reid assistant lifestyle editor Before ever listening to Flipp's self- titled debut CD, I already didn't like them. They looked like every other cheap band who didn't have much of a chance getting anywhere musically, so they decided to milk the "alternative image" for all it was worth. Now that I've actually heard the CD, I still hate the image, but I have hope for the band. Before I even get into the music, I must say that Flipp has to be the luckiest band ever. After singer Brynn Arens, bassist Cherry Forever, and drummer Kilo Bale recorded a version of the Who's "My Generation" for fun, a friend wanted to shoot a video for it to test his new floodlights. The $5 video soon found its way to New York with Arens. where he plaved ir for fri -nds and anyone he thought might have connections (including a janitor at Warner Brothers). The good reviews sent .Arens back to Minneapolis to recruit his brother into the band. Their second gig before 30,000 at "Edgefest" in Wisconsin drew notoriety when Arens started a mud fight and mooned the crowd earning a spot on MTV News. Soon after, the band won an MTV contest for best home- made video and ended up opening for White Zombie. Between all this publicity and an ever-growing fol- lowing, the band was soon signed and recording their debut album. This brings us to the CD itself. Flipp starts off promisingly enough with a light little tune called "1 Wish I Was Planet Whereas so many bands these days seem to think they have to break new ground and do something totally unheard of, or use unusual sounds or timing, Flipp comes out pounding and sticks to it. No big surprises, just a simple peppy song. "Bleed" comes next and contin- ue where "Planet" left off. If vou are over 21, chances are you have had your fair share of Milwaukee's Best, Natural Lite. Bud and other such stale beers usually found at college keg- gers. But when the time comes that keg beer just won't do the trick, you may realize that you have developed standards. You know, one day Beast is just fine and the next day nothing but Heineken will suffice. This is the kiss of death for the college student who depends on that $2.89 six pack to curb a crav- ing for beer. Beer drinkers may eventually find themselves leaning toward the more expensive selection of beers for several reasons. The more expensive imports and microbrews provide a greater deal of variety than your average Anheuser- Busch dealer. This makes it easier to find some- thing to suit your tastes. Unfortunately, once you have had a taste of the good stuff, it's hard to go back to the schwagg. However, if you find yourself in this situa- tion (broke and needing good beer) there are a few alter- natives. 1 am not try- ing to advocate ways to get drunk for cheap (if that's what you want. Peasant's has a great mug night on Tuesdays), but being the beer snob that I am. I knew I had to find an alternative to premium beer at a college beer price. So I decided to choose nine beers at random, all under five bucks for a six pack of bottles, and rate them in an attempt to find something affordable, yet drinkable. The research took all weekend and was a long and laborious process. I struggled with my decisions as I tasted and tasted again, making sure the data was correct and that my decisions were unbiased. The nine samples I tried were Dundee's Honev Brown, Miller High Life, Bud Ice, Saranac Summer Wheat, Michelob Amber Bock, Micheloo Classic Dark, Michelob Gold Pilsner, and just for good measure, Pabst Blue Ribbon and Schlitz Malt Liquor. Michelob seems to be trying to captute the microbrew market. Unfortunately, theit recipes don't have that microbrew variety. Maybe they need to narrow their production. But the Amber Bock at $4.29 a six pack was great and the best beer I sam- pled. It was a good amber beer, smooth and rich without being bitter, and free of any funky after taste. The Golden Pilsner, also S4.29, tasted too much like the Amber Bock, but not as good. I wouldn't buy this again. .Another good one was the Honey Brown. It's fla- vor is similar to Newcastle Brown Ale, but not quite as bitter, and at S4.49 a six pack, it's half the price of the English ale. 1 had a neutral reaction to the Michelob Classic- Dark . the Pabst Blue Ribbon, and the Schlitz Malt Liquor. All are drinkable but not much better than keg beer. PBR is the cheapest at $2.79 for a six pack Warning: Too much cheap beer may result in a serious social decline PHOTO COURTESY OF WWW BEER COM of cans, and even though it is the most watered down beer I have ever had, drinking PBR make me feel like a part of Americana. The only bonus to the Schlitz Malt Liquor is that if you don't finish it, you can screw the cap back on and drink it for breakfast. A few beers to stay away from are Bud Ice and Saranac Summer Wheat. Bud Ice may have a highei alcohol content than regular beer but, trust me, it is not worth it. Bud Ice is a complete waste of monev and the only thing even remotely interesting aboui this beer is its tacky bottle. But, of the nine beers I SEE BEER. PAGE 5 t- ??, moviereviewl Dependable Ford lifts Air:ForceOne However, by now Arens vocal atti- tude and the pointless lyrics start to take their toll. Still there's some- thing catchy about the song that draws you in and makes you want to listen anyway. Of course, by the time 'Another Boring Day" starts, vou may find yourself thinking it's just another boring song. Flipp definitely has some pluses, such as good background harmonies and definitive sounds for each song, but the sum doesn't equal the whole of its parts. Partly, this is the band's fault, other times it's solely .Arens fault. For example, "All In My Head" starts off well with an omi- nous guitar sound that gives way to a loose bass riff, but Arens isn't con- tent to just sing the song and insists on slurring words here, holding notes there and adding attitude to everything that drags the whole song down. On "Slag the pop guitar intro gives way to a totally different sound once the lyrics statt. After 18 seconds of an excellent song, it takes a downhill turn and fails mis- erablv. Overall, Flipp's problems are totally fixablc with a little work. Maybe by their next CD they will have a little more experience under their belt and they'll be able to bet- ter take their mix of pop. rock and punk and make it work in the best possible way. In the meantime, the band will lie busy opening for anoth- er pop, rock, punk fusion band, Cheap Trick, at the Mission in Raleigh on July 31 and in Winston Salem at .iggv's on A ug. 2. Maybe Cheap Trick's 20 years of experi- ence will rub off on Flipp to lead them to bigger and better things. n I. E W11.1.1A l s o N SENIOR WHITE 8 OUT OF 10 Harrison Ford is famous for being the thinking pet- son's action hero, and with good reason. In an era of bloated, big budget action blockbusters that carry- little plot and zero characterizations, Ford's adven- ture films offer less explosions and more substance. Films like Blade Runner, Witness, Tlw Fugitive and Clear and Present Danger are all filled with a maturi- ty and sophistication rarely seen in the typical Hollywood thrilier. As a result, Ford has become a cinematic icon, someone who has the star charisma of James Stewart and the kick-ass attitude of John Wayne. He has, in more ways than one, transformed into Hollywood's vision of the American hero, someone who represents noble ideals and will uphoid those ideals no matter the obstacles or challenges. He is someone the audience can always count on to win. Keeping all of this in mind, it's easy to under- stand whv Ford's newest film is not a stretch for him. Air Force One casts Ford as none other than the President of the United States (in this case, a fic- tional one named James Marshall). However, this President is not your typical sit-behind-a-desk leader. This is a President who is forced into phys- ical action in a desperate effort to save his family, his countrv and, ves, his ideals. This is a role tailor- made for Ford, and it is a thrilling event packed with countless action sequences. Unfortunately, chough, it does not rank as high on the intelligence meter as it could. The basic premise is hard to swallow, but once you accept it, the rest will fall into place. All you need to know is that this is another Die Hard on a plane, only this time it's the President of the U.S sneaking around and taking on a nasty group of Russian renegade terrorists led by a trigger-happy Ivan Korshunov (played by the always exceptional Gary Oldman). With actors like Ford, Oldman and Glenn Close (who plays Vice President Kathryn Bennett), and a director like Wolfgang Petetsen (who earned vast critical acclaim for his claustrophobic film Das Boot), one would hope for and expect a serious and intelligent "what- if-this-really-happened" thriller. Such is not necessarily the case. While Air Force One does have its fair share of brains and gravity, it is also filled with hard-to-swallow feats that almost come off as being cartoonish. Gary Oldman gets tough with Harrison Ford in Air Farce One PHOTO COURTESY OF COLUMBIA PICTURES .Although the majority of the film is plausible, certain scenes simply look silly. The climatic mid- air rescue mission, for example, is technically pos- sible, but the blue-screen effect destroys any sus- pension of disbelief. This, though, can be blamed on the limited technology available for such special effects and the sheer difficulty of filming anything so fantastic. Other cornv scenes, however, can be blamed on the script, written by .Andrew W Marlowe, which flip-flops from being great to being standatd fare. .An early scene onboard the plane shows the President relaxing with his family and staff. It's a serviceable scene that illustrates the kind of man he is when not speaking before a committee or the media. Unfortunately, portions of the essential dia- logue here border on being cliche. For example, Marshall at one point tells his daughter that she is voung and doesn't need to be exposed to the harsh, violent realities of life. Big, red letters spelling "foreshadowing" might as well flash on the screen at this point because we all know the horror that is to come. . But these complaints are minor, especially w hen the film as a whole is taken into consideration There is enough energetic action to satisfy am adventure fan, and Wolfgang Petersen choreo graphs each scene with the precision of a mastei carpenter. While most action films, like Con Air 3Tc Die Hard With a Vengeance, repeatedly throw so mam quicklv edited visual flashes at the audience thai action sequences have little or no logic to them. An Force One stages each conflict in a purposeful man ner and with a structured sense of pacing. No high-profile actot is better suited than Fore to execute the physicality of this film and stil maintain a true sense of controlled leadership. Ht alwavs manages to layer his performances witr slight touches of subtletv. and this performance i; no different. One of the film's most gut-wrenching moments centers around the expression on I-ord face at the verv moment he realizes he has to break a terrorist's neck in order to stay alive and get hit plane back. It's not the excitement of the fight thai makes the scene work, but the sorrowful yet angered expression in our hero's eyes.

DOWNTOWN, GREENVILLE (ACROSS FROM U.B.E.) 757-1666 Air Force One continued from page 4 Ford is Oidman, who is every bit the ultimate icon of the bad guy as Ford is the good guy. A scene in which Oidman tells Marshall's daughter that her father is a murderer, even if he kills with authority from behind a Presidential desk, effectively allows Oidman to make Ivan less a monster and more a victim of war. It's an excel- lent shade-of-gray area that could have been further explored but fades away once the bullets start flying. Without a doubt. Air Force One owes a great debt to its two leads. Ford and Oidman, both highly under- rated actors, give the Film its main thrusting force and raise the respectability of the entire produc- tion. Other stand-out items include: the political war in the White House between Close and Dean Stockwell, who insists that he. has the constitu- tional right to make all the calls when the President and his family are in peril; William H. Macy's small but eye-catching performance as a Presidential aide who joins his boss in the battle; and Michael Ballhaus' exquisite use of lighting and camera angles (the scene where Marshall addresses the Russian government simply looks gorgeous). Air Forte One is not a great film, but it succeeds where it needs to and, as a result, should be a huge hit in the States and abroad. This is a positive thing. Since Hollywood is so desper- ately trying to find the next big action star (lately we've witnessed even hot. young actor from Nicolas Cage to Jason Patric pick up a gun and take off his shirt), it's refreshing to know that a 55-year-old pro like Ford can still roll with the best of them. He may be getting older, but you can stiil count on him to win in the end.

"You tell everybodv back in Houston I'm fine said Barkiey, who has accused Tyler of making up a story to get money from him. "Unfortunately, being famous, this is one of the drawbacks During jury selection, plaintiff lawyer Timothy 5ta asked jurors, "Does anyone have a problem with Mr. Tyler being from around Rochester, NY?" Barkiey, who is from Leeds, Ala raised his hand. In the July 7, 19 fight, Barkiey jumped past bouncers to repeatedly punch Tyler, who was acting as a peacemaker during an argument about a woman, Ita said in opening statements. The scuffle happened last summer at The Basement nightclub when Barkiey was in town with the U.S. Olympic basketball team. Barkiey has told police he was the one who was attacked, and a defense lawyer said Olympic teammate Reggie Miller will testify that Tyier threw the first punch. ACC may have to settle for bowls ASHEVILLE (AP) - Despite visions of a big conglomerate of leagues and second- tier howl tie-ins. the Atlantic Coast Conference has had to face reality Although the ACC became a major postseason participant when Florida State joined the league in 1992, reluctance from other area means the league may have to stand pat and sign extended agreements with the Gator, Peach and Carquest bowls "We were really interested in talking with some other leagues and oter bow Is and having four, five or six together and maybe several more conferences togeth- er ACC commissioner John Swofford said Tuesday. "For whatever reasons they looked at it differently. . "People have to do wwt they feel like is best for their league and that s what thevdid . , . Swofford did mention some other bowl possibilities, including a new bowl next season in Nashville, Tenn but also said the league has had a very good relation- ship with the three second-tier bowls now under contract. Those contracts expire after this season. "We want to step back and look at what opportunities might be there and be as creative as we can be Swofford said. The ACC champion is assured of a spot in the upper tier Bowl Alliance and the Super Alliance, which begins a four-year run next season. The Gator Bowl then gets to choose a second team from the league, the Peach a third team and the Carquest a fourth. With Florida State on top of the ACC for five straight seasons, some teams have gone to the same bowl several times. That often leads to fan apathy and poor attendance. . ? ? u ?. Despite failing to strike a more encompassing second tier deal with confer- ences like the Big East, Big Ten and SEC, Swofford still favors the current bowl selection process over a decade ago, when it was basically a free-for-all. Norman out of Anderson Consulting World Championship of Golf KOHLER, Wis. (AP) - Defending champion Greg Norman was ousted yesterday m the semifinals of the international leg of the Andersen Consulting World Championship of Golf. Fourth-seeded Steve defeated his fellow Australian 2-and-1, advancing to the final this afternoon against Ernie Els. The winner of the match-play rourney gets a $200,000 paycheck and advances to face European champion Colin Montgomerie of Scotland in the four-man world finals at Scottsdale, Ariz, on Jan. 3-4, 1998. Els beat Nick Price 3-and-2 on the unforgiving River Course at Blackwolf Run in the other semifinal today Norman, the world's third-ranked golfer, bogeyed holes 11 and 16 and con- ceded the par-3 17th to seventh-ranked Elkington. "Greg had a couple of bad holes Elkington said. This is the last finals matchup to be determined. Hajime Meshiai won the Japanese leg and will face Davis Love III, who won the U.S. regional, in the other world semifinal. It was difficult to tell which was tougher, the course or the competition, the stiff winds or the sloping greens. All four quarterfinal matches on Monday came down to the 18th hole. All four losing golfers bogeyed the 469-yard, par-4 final hole. Williams says 12 years is enough SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) - Carolina Panthers defensive end Gerald Williams has decided that 12 years in the NFL is enough. Williams, who will turn 34 in September, said Tuesday he plans to make the 1997 season his last. "There comes a point in time in your life when it's time to get on with life's work Williams said. "I've enjoyed this game. I've been blessed to play this game for a number of years Williams, coming off his most productive season in eight years, anchored the right side of a line that helped the Panthers become one of the best defenses in the NFL and advance to the NFC championship game. "I think I'm at a good point in my life where I've done all that 1 can do in foot- toll with the exception of earning that jewelry he said. "Pd like to do that this year. If not, then it's time for me to get on with life's work A second-round pick of the Steelers in 1986, Williams played his first nine sea- sons in Pittsburgh before joining the Panthers as an unrestricted free agent in March 1995. He had 49 tackles last vear. the second-highest total on the defensive line and the third-highest total of his career. In addition to his on-field performance, which includes 413 career tackles and 25 12 sacks, Williams is extremely active in the community, donating large amounts of time to various charities. The Panthers made several moves in the offseason to increase their depth at defensive end, including signing unrestricted free agent Rav Seals from the Steelers in March. Waverly Jackson, an undrafted free-agent rookie from Virginia Tech, has been impressive so far. drawing praise from Capers and his staff at two minicamps this spring and during training camp at Wofford College. Annual meeting of coaches and select players takes place in Memphis AMANDA Ross SPURTS KDITOK Football season is right around the corner and last week Conference USA offi- cials, coaches and selected players met to discuss each schools upcoming sea- sons. Of course the buzz at this year's meeting was the addition of ECU to the conference. Many coaches see the addition of the Pirates as a positive step in building up the conference. "We're building the conference from the top down rather than from the bot- tom up Memphis Head Coach Rip Scherer said. Scherer said ECU was a top choice to bring into the conference "There were a lot of teams we could have added to this conference to create numbers, but to bring in a program like East Carolina, as a coach, we're nuts to welcome them with open arms, and I mean that very respectfully, because they are a good team Cincinnati Head Coach Rick Minter agrees that ECU is a quality addition. "We want to bring in quality teams that add quality dimensions to our league Minter said. "East Carolina is one of the best teams out there Minter, whose Bearcats will play ECU on ESPN, sees the Pirates as a challeng- ing team. "It's going to be a tremendous challenge, but we have added quality Minter said. Most of these conference teams are nothing new to Pirate Head Coach Steve Logan. 'Louisville and Houston will be new to us other than that, we kind of know the rest of the these teams logan said. "It's not going to Ik- that big of an adjustment really for them or us He does feel the conference will lie a strong contender and that people shouldn't take Conference USA for granted.

But sometime in the mid 1950s a Pennsylvania steelworker handed his young son a cut- down 5-iron and said, "All you need to know about using this you can learn by watching Ben Hogan The moment changed a life and the words were never forgotten. The steelworker passed on 30 years ago, much too young. Hogan died last week at the age of 84 and was buried Tuesday, leaving behind a legacy as the best pure ballstriker ever to play the game. The child's love affair with golf remains expressed 40 years later in words written about the game and in rounds played, always accompanied by the memory of the steelworker, the man who first handed him a One story has Hogan hitting his caddie with. a I-iron shot and then nailing the poor boy two more times before he could get up. He was that accurate. club, and by images of Hogan, the man who swung a club better than anyone. Memory is that wonderful place where everyone lives for- ever. Hogan will live on in memory and in anyone of limited ability who suc- ceeds purely through hard work. He will live on in the photos and grainv film of that exquisite swing that exploded with a violent snap of the wrists and ended in the elegant fol- low through with the per- fectly extended right arm. And he will live on in the stories told about him, stories w ith a theme ot" perfection so unerringly similar chat it makes no difference which ones are true, partly true or com- pletely made up. Hogan almost never spoke on the golf course and was just as sparse with his words off it. It was left to those around him to flesh out his iife. The stories all paint the same picture of a man single-mindedly devoted to golf. In Hogan's day, caddies shagged balls, standing in the practice range while the pros hit balls at them. One story has Hogan hitring his caddie with a 1-iron shot and then nailing the poor boy two more times before he could get up. He was that accu- rate. One acquaintance said Hogan always drove to the golf course below the speed limit to develop a focus on tempo even before he started hitting balls. The old-timers at Carnoustie in Scotland, vvhere Hogan won the only British Open he played, said he walked the course backward to understand it's subtle nature and that he never hit a shot above shoul- der high all week as he manipulated the ball under the wind. In 1945, while Hogan was missing SEE GOLF PAGE 7 Rumors have been rapidly circulating about the renovations to ECU's Dovvdy- Ficklen Stadium, the main rumor being that the $14.1 million dollar addition will not be finished by the Sept. 13 deadline.

A national news magazine ran a cover story on Nelson with the head- line: "Mr. Golf When thev met head-to-head for the first time after the article appeared it was at the Portland Invitational and Hogan played 72 holes in 27 under par, a mark no one has yet to surpass, winning by 14 strokes. As Nelson stuck out his hand to congratulate Hogan. the little man in the white hat said: "That should take care of this 'Mr. Golf stu.f And then there is the dream Hogan told about in which he saw himself making 17 consecutive holes-in-one only to trudge off the course in anger after the 18th spun out of the cup. Even in a dream, Hogan was telling us, perfection on the golf course was not possible. But he came as close as anyone. -What has given him his edge over the field?" sports writer Grantland Rice wrote. "I've seen Hogan finish a hard morning round, grab a sandwich, and then go out for an hour's practice before starting the afternoon round Another part of the Hogan mys- tique was the notion that he under- stood some mystery about the game that no one else had yet to learn. Deane Beman, the former PGA Tour commissioner, first met Hogan in 1953 and had many conversations with him. One came in the 1980s when thev talked about creating the Hogan Tour - what is now the Nike Tour. Eventuallv they discussed equip- ment - shafts, balls, different mater- ial being used. "Finally, Hogan said, 'If I was plaving today I'd play the surlyn cov- ered ball and not the balata Beman said. The balata was the most popular ball with pros and Beman asked why Hogan would play the surlyn cover. "There was a long silence and then he said, 'Because it is better Beman said. Again, he asked why. "Another lengthy silence while he stared at me Beman said. "And then he answered: 'I'm not telling The memory made Beman laugh uncontrollably. "If Ben Hogan had a secret' Beman said. "He took it with him Goodbye, Mr. Hogan. Dad was right. It's a great game and you were the best. Qualifications begin today in NASCAR's richest event INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -The tra- dition of the Brickyard is a powerful lure. The money isn't too bad. either. After just three races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Brickyard 400 has become NASCAR's richest event and one of the most prestigious stops on the Winston Cup series. Practice for Saturday's race begins Wednesday. Qualifications are Thursday and Friday. "Obviously there's great history and great tradition at Indy, but it's also an incredible amount of money defending Brickyard champion Dale Jarrett said. "It's the most money of anv race that we run, and that is great motivation. We'd really like to win it again The Speedway on Tuesday announced a purse of more than $4.8 million, and the value of other mer- chandise awards likely will push the total prize package past the record $4.85 million set last year, the richest payoff in NASCAR history. Jarrett led only 11 of the 160 laps last vear but passed Ernie Irvan on the 154th lap and won under the yel- low light after Robert Pressley crashed with two laps to go. It was the fourth victory of the season for Jarrett, and he returns to the Brickyard with three wins so far this season. He is in fourth place in the Winston Cup standings, behind Gordon, Mark Martin and Terry Labonte. Gordon, who grew up in nearby Pittsboro, Ind has started from the pole each of the past two years. He led the first three laps last year but crashed on the 24th lap and was 74 laps behind the leader by the time he finally returned to the race. He managed only another 17 laps and finished 37th among the 40 starters. Martin started next to Gordon on the front row last year and led 19 laps earlv in the race. He finished fourth, behind Jarrett. Irvan and Labonte. "We were very consistent in the last half of the season in '96, and I think our finish in the Brickyard 400 went a long way toward helping us win the champi- onship said Labonte, the defending Winston Cup series champion. "One of our goals for the season was to finish in the top 10 at the Brickyard. We were able to do that for the first time, but we were reallv sweating it. "We were close at the end.
