Many days and home games have drifted
past and still it seems the stadium
construction drags on. 1 low ever, there is an
end in sight.
Bruce Five, director of facilities planning,
design, and construction, said the stadium is
75 percent complete and should be finished
by this December. For now. the major delay
is ;he delivers of part of the handrail system.
"We want it (the stadium) completed
and as it should be Five said. "We need for
the contractor to finish it. and (then) we
inspect it and accept it
Five adds that the university is also
concerned about the length of time for
construction because the
building is not only needed
for sports. but for
graduation as well. Over SI
million dollars worth of
maintenance work is being
planned or is already being
carried out by existing
construction efforts.
In addition to the
improvement of seating
capacity, steps are also
being taken to make the
stadium more accessible CO
handicapped fans and their guests. The
grounds will be given a make over as well,
adding landscaping and an enclosed brick
wall. '

university has plans to build a new track,
softball field. 500-seat banquet hall and a
22.000 square-foot combination strength
and conditioning building
for athletes.
For now. however, the new
addition to the stadium will
remain closed until it is
perfect. The university
polices the stands before
every game and requires
the contractors to keep on-
site staff to ensure that
people wander into the
work area. Hopefully, the
stadium will be completed
by the new deadline to
alleviate the annovanee of both students
and staff.
"We're not worried about what we will

we've taken to net it Five said.
University officials claim the upper deck, which still stands as an empty shell, will be ready for
graduation in December.

The School of Medicine is on the
cutting edge.
The medical school has been granted a
national protocol allowing them to be one of
six sites to perform new minimally invasive
surgeries. A team of six surgeons,
nicknamed the "dream team have come
together to research and perfect these
surgeries.
The "dream team" consists of six
doctors: Randolph Chitwood, William
Chapman, Lorraine Tarfa, Jospeh F.lbcrry
Ken McDonald and David Deaton.
Chapman, an assistant professor of
surgery, is excited about the performance
and rhe vast areas of expertise collected tor
this team. Working at Fast (Carolina School
of Medicine for two years and specifically
working on perfecting this surgery with his
colleagues allows Chapman to see a vast
future beginning for minimally invasive
surgery.
"It has been a hard two years to get to
this point of development. I lead ofSurgery
Dr. Chitwood has lead the way for E( to

Chapman said.
In the past two years, the medical school
has proven to be a prime candidate for
research on these new techniques because
of the expertise in different fields and a
tremendous success rare with the
minimally invasive surgeries.
"The school was issued two protocols
allowing us to be the only school preform
minimally invasive surgeries on obesity and

Shortly after the half-time festivities of
Saturday's game. newly crowned
Homecoming Queen Sharlynda Fleming
said her crown was a symbol of victory
despite the odds. Only the third African
American to receive the title at ECU,
Fleming said she was told repeatedly that
she could not win.
"All I would say when people tried to
discourage me was. "Through Christ, all
things are possible Fleming said, adding
that the weekend's outcome was a great
boost to her faith.
The junior chemistry major (Prc-Med)
said even her choice to come to ECU was
scrutinized. Many people from her
hometown of Roanoke Rapids told her she-
had made a had decision.
"I was told that because I did not
choose a historically black university that it
would be hard for me to have a social life
and that I would never get proper
recognition for my achievements
Fleming said. "So one thing I've learned
from all of this i not let the opinions and
words of others shape your future. It's all
up to what's m your heart and how hard
you're willing to work to get what you want
in life
In addition to being the 1997
I lomecoming Queen, Fleming is active in
a number of campus organizations. She is
the Chaplain for Ladies Flite, the service
organization she represented; a resident
adviser for I'mstead Hall; a member of
Revelation Steppers; a member of
Koinonia Campus Ministries and a
member of the American Chemical
Society. She also volunteers to have lunch
with Alzheimers patients and is involved
with an after-school tutorial program.
Ladies Elite President Taiisha Coins
said Fleming's election as queen sends a
message of how ECU students want to be
perceived and represented.
"Sharlynda) has an essence that
follows her said Coins. "1 believe it is that
essence that compelled the student body
to choose her. She is a remarkable
representative for Ladies Flite. Being a
new organization to ECU, we needed this
boost of exposure to let people know the
kind of women we are
According to Fleming, the service
organization is important because the
members do more than talk about
problems. They take an active role in the
community to provide solutions and relief.
Fleming added that she takes the greatest
pride in being a member of Revelation
Steppers and Koinonia campus ministries
is it allows her to share the source of her
strength with others.
Fleming said one of the highlights of
winning was her chance to meet
Chancellor Richard Fakin, about whom
she had always heard a lot, but never knew
personally.
"Meeting the Chancellor was really
special Fleming said. "I le is very kind and
caring, and he seemed genuinely happy for
me. My encounter with him broke a lot of
stereotypes about people in high places.
About Fakin. Fleming added. "Being
there at 1 lomecoming was more than just
an appearance for him. I le is really

Students fight
back after recent
lot closings
AMBER TATI vi
s I l-l tt KITER
After the recent closing of the
parking lot near Umstead Hall,
students are in an uproar.
Students began to fight back
by calling a meeting on Oct. 15 in
VVhite Hall with officials from
Parkin and Traffic Services.
I lere. these students were able to
express their concerns.
Many students are upset and
feel they have been treated
unjustly by the failure of Parking
and Traffic Services and Facilities
Planning to communicate with
them in a more efficient way
about the closing lots.
Notification was given to
student decal holders on Sept. 12;
only three days later, the lots
closed.
Students were notified that
the lot was closing through fliers
that were placed on the
windshields of the cars that were
in the parking lot. ? .?
"Basically, 1 was told 'you have
two days to get (your car) out or it
would be towed said Brian
Mosely, a junior and resident of
I'mstead Hall.
Alternate spaces were
indicated on the fliers which also
stated there would be parking at
Minges Coliseum and at the Fifth
and Reade Street lot.
Decal holders feel these
parking lots are unsafe due to the
fact that there is poor lighting.
"They're adequate, but 1 do
not think the lighting is adequate
enough said Raymond McCill, a
freshman and resident of
Umstead Hall.
Students who did not receive
a flier heard of the closing by word
of mouth or a telephone call from
from Parking and Traffic Services
as they threatened to tow the
residents' cars.
Facility Services could not give
a definite reason as to what kind
of construction was to take place,
when the lots would reopen or if
they would reopen at all.
"I called Facilities Planning
twice and was hung up on said
Moselv.

Feminist guru promotes rights for men, women
CHAPEL HILL (AP) Gloria Steinem, the activist who helped launch
the feminist movement, says equality benefits men and women.
In a speech Thursday night at the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill, Steinem said women have made advances but humanity
still has a long road to travel.
Steinem, 63, the founder of Ms. magazine, visited the campus on the
100th anniversary of the admittance of female students to the university
Steinem pointed out the nation's increasing prison population and
said the United States is the only industrialized democracy without
some form of national child care and health care.
Steinem also said men should leam to do what women do, such as
changing diapers, raising children and supporting spouses in their
careers. .
Lesbians and gays also are fighting sexual repression in much the
fcsamc way that women fought the idea that their sexual role was only
producing children, Steinem said.

Fish oil washes ashore, killing and threatening birds
WATSONVILLE, Calif. (AP) A white, glue-like substance that washed
ashore at Sunset State Beach, along with more than 15 dead shore birds,
?is a non-toxic fish oil, officials said Saturday.
The oil, found in large slicks in several parts of Monterey Bay, poses
no threat to humans. But once birds dive into it, many are not able to fly
and often die of hypothermia, officials said.
An additional hundred birds most of them grebes and loons were
alive but stuck on shore Saturday and needed to be rescued, said
Stephanie Price, the supervising ranger at Sunset State Beach.
Price said the squrce of the fish oil is not known.
Federal prison site search on in Virginia counties
BRISTOL, Va. (AP) Searches for a suitable site for a federal prison are
under way in TazewcTl, Dickcnson and Buchanan counties, officials said.
L UJS. Rep. Rick Boucher said Friday the three counties have
expressed a desire for site visits by the Federal Bureau of Prisons
In September, Boucher sent letters to county administrators in five
"southwest Virginia counties inquiring whether they were interested in
providing a site for a new federal prison.
A federal prison would create 400 new jobs in the area.
Boucher said a new federal prison is needed in Virginia to take the
place of the troubled Lorton prison in Fairfax County, which is scheduled
for closure.

Founder of America Online
speaks to students
HONG KONG (AP) Chinese soldiers in Hong Kong will hold their
first live-fire exercises next week in areas previously used by British
forces.
A government statement Saturday night warned the public, for its
safety, to stay away from the San Wai and Tai ling firing ranges in the
New Territories. It said the routine" exercises start next Saturday and
last through December.
China deployed more than 4,000 troops in Hong Kong when it
recovered the territory from Britain on Jury 1.
Their arrival was a sensitive issue because of the hostility many Hong
Kong people feel toward an army they see as an enforcer of the
Communist system in China.
But there have been no major incidents involving the garrison and the
troops are rarely seen in public.

The renovation of Joyncr Library is

The banquet at which Kimsey
was guest speaker, was held by the
Friends of ECU Library.
Kimsey's speech was focused on
the importance of technology in
libraries today.
"Libraries are

Kimsey.
He continuously
reiterated his
infatuation with
the impact that
technology has on
today's society. He
emphasized the
need for libraries to
evolve with the
ever changing
times;
"Libraries are
the cradle to civilizationthey need
to seize this wonderful opportunity
in a world that is continuously

in the duration of Kimsey's speech
was the concern of censorship and

"We try our best to detect

very eager" said Chapman.
The protocols will add a
tremendous advancement for
patients. Allowing them minimal
time spent in the hospital and
lower costs. The success of the
protocols may offer different
solution for treatment of cancer
and obese.
"The weight lose pill that were
given to patients that were
morbidly obese, such as Redux,
can no longer be used because it
was found to have connections
with heart disease. I feel like
minimally invasive surgery will be
a positive treatment said
Chapman.
Along with testing the
protocols teaching these
technique is a prime focus for all of
the doctors. Currently Chitwood
is teaching in Brussels and Tarfa is
teaching in China. The team is
obtaining national exposure by-
teaching through televised
surgeries to other campuses.
"Our job is to educate the
public. East Carolina is far better
at these procedures than any other
centers on the map. The level of
expertise allows us to have a
higher level of excellence. One of
our goals in forming a center of
excellence is to train new surgeons
in a fellowship program that would
last one to two years. It would be
a lot of work Chapman said.
"With our grouping of
expertise, we may be best in the
country, at least with the new
program for minimally invasive
surgery we are one of the top
medical schools practicing said

Competition
Open to All ECU Faculty, Staff, and Currently Enrolled Students
The Division of Continuing Studies is
initiating a new annual award which will
honor an outstanding faculty member
who has taught and mentored off-campus
adult students. Nominations for the
award will be made by extension stu-
dents. Each year's winner will be selected
from among the nominees by a commit-
tee composed of representatives from
the Faculty Senate Committee on
Continuing Education and Summer School
and the staff of Continuing Studies.The
award is to be named The Max Ray oyner
Award For Faculty Service TTirough Continuing
Education. Financial support for this award
is made possible by the Vice Chancellor
for Academic Affairs.
As part of instituting this prestigious
ECU award, the Division of Continuing
Studies is pleased to announce a design
competition open to all ECU faculty and
currently enrolled students. The competi-
tion seeks a design for a permanent sym-
bol of the award which can be replicated
into the small individual awards to be
given each year.The symbol should have
an area for the name of the award -The
Max Ray Joyner Award for Faculty Service
Through Continuing Education? and an area
where the name of each year's award
winner can be listed.The replica design
should have an area for the name of the
award, the year, and the awardee's name.
The permanent symbol of the award will
be placed in a visible location on campus.
The creator of the winning design will
receive a1,000 honorarium. An award
to construct the winning design and a
limited number of replicas will be given
separately. While there are no restric-
tions on the materials for the symbol and
replicas, designers should keep in mind
the permanent nature of both and the
importance of the awards. Size of both
should be appropriate for the intended
use, and designs may be two-dimensional
or three-dimensional All design submis-
sions should contain complete working
drawings with proper dimensions and
pertinent details indicated along with a
materials list.The deadline for submis-
sions is Friday, December i 2,5 p.m
to the Division of Continuing Studies
located in the Erwin Building. Envelopes
should be clearly labeled "design competi-
tion Designers should also clearly indi-
cate their names, addresses, and daytime
phone numbers. A committee will select
the winning design.

Generation X is an apathetic bunch of sedated youths who could tell you all about the latest
Sony Playstation and absolutely nothing about Janet Reno. ECU's branch of Generation Xers
are the epitome of the stereotype; less than 1,000 of them bothered to vote for their own
political leaders in the mast recent Student Government Association election. Well, after all,
they are a bunch of Generation X losers right?
Bologna. TEC does not believe for one second the easy-to-sell stereotype of our generation.
TEC believes instead that the reason students are so disinterested in SGA is because most of
them couldn't name one thing SGA does for them. We all know what the President,
congressmen, even the mayor do. But what does SGA do and why should anyone care?
More to the point, whose job is it to ensure that every student of this campus knows the
leadership opportunities available to them and the responsibilities of those positions? Assuming
students would vote if they knew how SGA affects them, whose job is it to inform them of SGA's
role?
Obviously, SGA bears a large part of the burden, but what would SGA gain from massive
efforts to inform the campus of their responsibilities? Would the voting population of the
university increase? If the voting population increased, then would the new voters outnumber
traditional voters? Would the new voters belong to the same organizations as traditional voters
and would they believe in the same things? What we are suggesting is that SGA gains little from
massive efforts to inform students. If anything, they would only shake up the status quo by
doing so.
TEC has not, in recent years, been shy of chastising the SGA but we would like to shoulder
some of the burden of informing students ourselves. While we feel that a few measly sheets
hanging from trees on the mall is a sorry excuse for campaigning, we understand the problem.
Who would spend money advertising if they win without it?
In light of our conclusion that there is no easy answer, we will be focusing our attention on
various leadership positions on our news pages. Today, the first in a series highlights the role of
the SGA president and vice president. We hope the articles will be informative for students and
give them a reason to vote in upcoming elections. We also hope the effort will spark similar
efforts by the SGA to increase voter awareness on campus.

Flag sacred.symbol, reminder of glory
the flag has always been the
last and best expression of
gratitude to a warrior whose
love of country transcended
the love of self . This tragedy
of ritual and heroism above
all else makes the flag sacred
and inviolate.
Alone amongst the nations of the
Earth and thrice in a single century,
the United States has saved the
world from the dark hand of tyranny.
In 1917 she resolved to lead the
battered remnants of a dying France
and England to a victory that
American intervention alone made
possible. A quarter of a century iatcr
she saved the world from fascist
tyranny and led a bleeding and
exhausted Earth in triumph of
democracy over the ambitions of
communism. In a single lifetime
was it possible to behold each of
these events; to reflect on any of
them was to contemplate an epic in
military and human achievement.
Through the night of that long
travail, America proved she was a
nation of heroes. She had pride and
passion; she fought evil and won.
And when the wars were over and
many of her heroes lay dead,
America recounted the gallantry of
her fallen: she did so funerary and
anthem; she cradled the cerements
of the lost with prayers and living
tears.
In her anguish America groped
for a symbol as beautiful and sacred
as the memory of those she gently
laid to rest. She found that symbol
in a banner not dissimilar to the one
a poet named Key once watched,
battered but unbroken, flutter over
a fort named McKenry. For a wife
unable to hold back the tears as her
husband is buried, the flag has
always been the last and best
expression of gratitude to a warrior
whose love of country transcended
the love of self. This tragedy of
ritual and heroism above ail else
makes the flag sacred and inviolate.
And while there are those who
would insist that the very freedom
which the flag represents demands
that we permit the possibility of its
desecration, how little compass do
they give to the devotion which is
the heart of a hero, or reflection that
devotion has kept us free. It is only
fitting that the flag honors the
graves of heroes; they died for flag
and country, surely it befits this
ultimate of sacrifices to consecrate
with the colors their tombs. There
is nothing in war for which men will
fight more steadfastly than the
symbol of their nation. Inspired by
the flag which symbolized America
and all that America stood for,
America alone amongst the nations
of the Earth saved civilization.
Through two world wars and a cold
one, we acknowledged the
inviolability of our flag. There is
tragic irony that in the year 1989,
just as the Supreme Court ruled
unconstitutional any state
prohibition against flag-burning, we
saw the end of our long struggle
against the Soviet Union. I pray that
our resolve and courage as a people
did not go down that year, as did the
symbol of our courage and resolve.

Repeated attacks on Fridley unjustified
The repeated attacks on Inez
Fridley, council member for the
third district, remind me of my own
experience registering voters some
years ago. The criteria for being a
voter included a residence
requirement that had recently been
dropped from one year to about a
month, but there was wording about
what constituted a residence,
something about intending to make
the present location one's
permanent home. It was, and still is,
as far as I know, somewhat slippery.
There was wording about local taxes
and car registration, too. In an effort
to clarify the requirements, I
translated it to "a dormitory address
doesn't qualify, but other addresses
do and added that information to
the voter service notice on my office
door. I received a sharp letter from
the Board of Elections. That
clarified things.
Another time when I was
registering voters on campus, I
forgot to take off a campaign button
I had been wearing. I was clearly in
error. This time I got a notice from a
campus official requiring me to
remove the buttonThe person who
complained to the official needed
only to have called my attention to
the button, but setting things
straight didn't seem to be her total
agenda.
Similarly, any error or confusion
there may have been in what Ms.
Fridley said could have been
corrected quickly, but getting the
facts straight was apparently a minor
part of Mr. McLawhorn's agenda.
The major purpose seems to be to
paint Ms. Fridley as anti-student.
I am grateful to have Ms.
Fridley's intelligence, public-
spiritedness and savvy working for
our community on the city council. I
believe that she is a valuable asset to
all the citizens in her district and
city.

Should police enter rooms without a warrant?
OPINION
Columnist
Wiiiiam Stacfey
C0CHRAN
YES
If I had been living in an
apartment, I most likely
would have gotten further
into drugs. I may have even
been arrested for worse things been
than simple possession had I
not had my run-in.
I was arrested for
possession of
marijuana my
freshman year
while living in Slay
Hall. At the time, I
considered the
ECU police who
entered my room
without a warrant
completely unjust.
I felt my privacy
had been invaded
and my freedom
denied.
My only thought
was that if I had
living off
campus, my rights
as a citizen would
have kept the
police off of my
property. After all,
the rules for search
and seizure for
students living on campus give much more power to
the police than living in a house or apartment.
However, I have come a long way from the less-
than-responsible age of 18 to turning 24 Friday. I
suppose I see things differently than I did then.
Essentially, when a student agrees to live on-
campus at ECU they give up many of their basic
rights of privacy. An RA can enter a dorm room just
about any time they want, whether the occupant is
home or not. Fblice can get around carrying a warrant
to search a room myriad ways.
Furthermore, most judicial cases like mine stay on
campus; thus, a student who has his or her room
searched cannot hire a private attorney to represent
themselves (not that it would help with the stone
wall that is the Dean of Students office anyway).
So with all this in mind, why would I stand for the
rights of university police to enter a student's room
with such little probable cause? It is simple: at 18
years of age too many students do not have the
responsibility to handle the awesome freedom that is
living away from mom and dad.
In my case, the run-in was a wake-up call that
made me rethink my freedom, responsibility and
reasons for attending ECU. Although I know I hated
it at the time, my brush with ECU authorities put me
in check.
Fortunately, I went on to make the national
freshman honor society and later to graduation with
an athletic letter to boot.
In retrospect, the experience got me in line and
made me realize that, hey, as harmless as it seems,
using pot is illegal. If I had been living in an
apartment, I most likely would have gotten further
into drugs. I may have even been arrested for worse
things than simple possession had I not had my run-
in.
The procedure with which RAs and campus police
enter an occupant's room may very well impinge on
the normal rights of adults. However, college
freshmen are not normal adults; we, as 18-year-olds,
are not fully aware of the maturity and responsibility
that makes us more productive citizens.
At the time, I was figuring out my life. I was 18. I
had the most freedom coupled with the least amount
of responsibility that I had ever had in my life. Many
students buckle under this enormous pressure; the
pressure that is widespread alcohol and drug use.
If stronger laws can aid campus police and RAs,
then perhaps, they can help guide students up paths
to more positive and productive lives. If I was to run
into the person I was at 18, now, I am sure my 18-
year-old self would probably consider my 24-year-old
self square as hell.
However, it is the passing into maturity, away from
alcohol binges and drug use, that is so satisfying. And
it is here that true contentment lies.
OPINIONColumnist

I applaud the University
for much of the entry
policies for the ECU
police and resident
advisers. The
coordinator's ability to
enter a room is a
different matter.
A manwoman's
home is hisher
castle. If you live in
the dorms, the
castle is more like a
10 x 10 home. The
home can be
searched by the
police if they have a
search warrant,
consent, an
emergency search or
arrest search.
The search warrant
is the same as the
one needed to
search your home.
An emergency
search is just as it
says: an emergency
search. If a bomb
threat is called in,
the police have a
right to search your
room, but only for
the bomb. Illegal
items found in the room cannot be used against you.
A police officer can search your person or any
surrounding areas for weapons if they have an arrest
warrant or are placing you under arrest. The search is done
to protect the police officer.
The consent search is the one I have a problem with. If
the police obtain consent from your roommate they can
search the room. The onfy place they cannot search is a.
locked box, drawer or other such item that you ? not your
roommate?own. The key here is that the item is locked.
I will state that trying to divide up a 10x10 room would
be near impossible. However when it comes to the Bill of
Rights, I always believe the police should err on the side of
caution. Or basically get a warrant or obtain the persons
permission for whom you want to search.
The police should obtain the person's permission or get
a warrant for three reasons: one, civil liberties, enough
said; two, roommates can be bastards. It is unlikely but
your roommate could plant god knows what on your half of
the room and get you in trouble. Last but not least your
roommate could blame his illegal possessions on you if you
are not in the room.
The University does a good job with the RAs and their
ability to search a room. They cannot search a room. Only
a coordinator can enter a room for probable violations of
University Housing Code: loud noise, smell of drugs
(marijuana), or curfew violations. A coordinator can enter a
room if they have strong evidence a violation has occurred.
The coordinator can only enter the room if it is
occupied. Unoccupied rooms can only be entered in
unusual cases i.e. loud music that is disturbing other
residents and the room is unoccupied, flooding, broken
windows or severe maintenance problems.
Coordinators can enter a room, but they are only
allowed to look Opening of drawers, trunks or closets is
prohibited. A first for me, I applaud the University for
much of the entry policies for the ECU police and resident
advisers. The coordinator's ability to enter a room is a
different matter.
Sure, in some cases, the coordinator should have the
ability to enter a room. Fights, fires or other such
emergencies are situations in which the coordinator should
enter a room.
Two consenting adults in a room past curfew is not a
reasonable reason to enter a room. Nor is having a beer
with your roommate. es, both examples are in violation of
University policy and drinking under age a violation of
state. But are they worth trampling over the Fourth
Amendment?
In these cases, the police should be called. The police
arc trained to handle these matters. I hope coordinators
entering rooms is rare and with just cause.
The University needs to rewrite the Room Entry for
Fblicy Violations to not allow coordinators in rooms, unless
it is an emergency The ECU Fblice are here for the other
violations. If the police have time to write tickets, they
have time to answer calls for housing violations in the
dorms.

The End of Violence
?t
Motion picture

NINE OUT OF TEN
joi in Davis
ASdST.VVT LIFESTYLE El UK
After filmmaker Wim Wenders
released his movie Until the End of
the World, he commented that, due
to television and Hollywood,
images had lost their power. He
preferred to create a more abstract
collection of images and use
dialogue and music to create the
focal point in his movies. The
soundtrack to Until the End of the
World got more attention than the
movie and got Wenders an
interview on Au Things Considered (a
leftist news magazine on National
Public Radio.)
Always a pioneer, Wenders is not
known for making movies that
appeal to the masses, nor is he
known for making movies that
actually get shown in theaters,
except for maybe at some exclusive
film festival. You may have to wait
to see the End of Violence until it
comes out on video or it gets a spot
on the Sundance Channel, but
soundtracks to Wenders' sell like
milk before a hurricane, so the
soundtrack is getting the sweet
end of the marketing.
There are actually two
soundtracks; one album is a
collection of instrumentals by
guitarist Ry Cooder. The other
soundtrack features a song by
Cooder and songs by the other 15
or so artists that contributed to the
film. Cooder's moody, echo-filled
song is the opener, followed by an
avant-garde soundbite from the
script. Though the soundbites,
which pop up a few more times,
aren't necessary, they're not
disruptive as they were on the
Natural Born Killers soundtrack.
Wenders has a lot of friends in
the music industry and has once
again assembled a stellar group of
performers. Both U2 and Michael
Stipe were on the Until the End of the
World soundtrack and they're here
as well, joined by such big shots as
Tom Waits, Los Lobos, and Sinead
O'Connor.
Each of these artists is superb
here. 12 and Sinead duet in the
sizzling "I'm not your baby which
has a strong Achtung Baby feel to it.
Michael Stipe teams up with Vic
Chesnutt in the stark, burning
"Injured Bird Michael's long
been a country music fan, and this
tune definitely has a tear in its
beer.
There are other "alterna-twang"
songs on this disc, contributed by
Spain and by North Carolina's own
Whiskeytown, whose "Theme for a
Trucker" is one of the nicest
surprises on the album.
Tom Waits is, well, Tom Waits,
growling his way through another
bluesy, shoulda-been-in-a-Bogey-
movie ballad, while Los Lobos fill a

Perhaps the greatest nightmare
or biggest fear on Halloween
night is that you might end up
all dressed up with nowhere to
go. It's a scary proposition,
deciding what your going to do
for Halloween in a town that
goes all out on the day of the
dead.
Downtown beckons for sure.
But for many, the thought of
being out in the cold night air
while getting jostled around by
overzealous revelers and
dodging overindulging drinkers,
is nightmarish enough to seek
an alternative.
For the past several years, the
ECU Division of Student Life
has been throwing a Halloween
bash that, while short on
alcohol, is long on things to do,
food to eat, and prizes to win.
Midnight Madness was

students annually. This is due,
largely, to the variety and.
amount in the things-to-do
department. The party runs
from 9 p.m2 a.m. and has no
shortage of events to occupy the
time. From the Ghoul Cafe to
Laser Storm to the Midnight
Buffet, the Division of Student
Life has spared no expense to
make Halloween a fun-filled
event.
"We've tried
to change
some of the
activities each
year to keep it
fresh and
we've retained
the events
that people
like. The
events tend to
attract different groupsWe
have horror movies for the
movie buffs, a dance, recreation
for people who want to do some
bowling or billiards and we have
things like Laser tag, which is
the big craze in a lot of the
cities around the county
Laser Storm is a game where
teams gear up with sensor packs
and battle it out with laser guns.
Clutter also pointed out that
Midnight Madness will feature
the unveiling of the newest
trend in the bowling industry?
Glow Bowling. The bowling
center has been redesigned
with glowing pins, glowing balls,
and a new decor, all under
black-light.

Director Carol Woodruff agreed
with Clutter on the uniqueness
of Midnight Madness and the

Glow bowling makes its debut
Halloween night at Mendenhall
By Ron ciikrubim Jr.
SENIOR WRITE
On Halloween night, Mendenhall
Student Center will debut Glow
Bowling in the bowling center in
the basement. Glow bowling, also
known as Moonlight Bowling in the
industry, is the first in a number of
planned changes for the basement
at Mendenhall Student Center.
The decision to re-make the
bottom floor of the
student center is
the brainchild of
MSC Director Bill
Clutter who is
determined to
make the building
more like home for
the students at
ECU. With plans to
open a cyber-caf6 in
the near future and
numerous other
upgrades to the
facility in the
planning stages,
Mendenhall is
slowly taking on a new presence.
Glow-bowling is the first step.
The idea is not unique Clutter
said of Glow Bowling. "Bowling
centers across the nation have been
looking for ways to spice up the old
bowling alley. Today's society is
moving away from the commitment
to league playpeople just find it
harder and harder to commit to a set
schedule. Glow Bowling is the
industry's answer to the impulsive
nature of society
Clutter knows a few things about
how to run a
student center
after working at
Florida State
University prior
to his arrival at
ECU one and
one half years
ago. "When I got
here, the traffic
in the bowling
center was very
poor. The
equipment was
in disrepair and
SEE G10W. PAGE 10
Ghoul Cafe ?This place
serves up an insane menu
complete with ghostly fog,
horrific music, slime, and a
staff of ghoulish good friends
to make your visit a fiendishly
fun one.
?Laser Storm ? This
game pits you and your
teammates against another
team in battle to the death, or
at least until you deactivate
your opponent's sensor, in an
eerie wax zone.
?Star Struck Videos ?
Video Karaoke allows students
to step into a rock video,
complete with a variety of
background visions. Students
get to leave with their video.
'Costume Contest ? A
Halloween bash wouldn't be
complete without a costume
contest. At Midnight
Madness, prizes will be given
in three categories: Male,
female, and group.
?Bingo ? The ever-
popular game adds another
opportunity for Midnight
Madness goers to win a prize.
Bingo will run all night long.
?Halloween Dance ? A
costume ball is on tap in the
Great Room. A DJ will spin the
tunes as ghosts, devils,
vampires, and freaks of all
types gather to waltz or
Monster Mosh for the evening.
'Fonyne TeJIejE ? Found
in the foothills, a band of
gypsies will be on hand
throughout the building to
offer insight into the future.
Call ? If you prefer a bonafide
psychic or a Wizard to do your
fate prognostication, there will
be phones on the main floor
that you can use to connect
with those who know your
fate. And, not just the first ten
minutes are free.
?Midnight Buffet?At 11
Si.rn the dining hall will open
or an all-you-can-eat buffet.
?Horror Flicks ? Back-to-
back horror movies will be
shown in Hendrix Theatre.
The first movie is Carrie (R),
filmmaker Brian DePalma's
adaptation of the Steven
King's runaway best-seller.
The second feature is Scream
(R), written by ECU alum
Kevin Williamson and brought
to screen by veteran horror
filmmaker Wes Craven.

STIFF WRITKK
Dr. Sherry Ginn, of the ECU
Psychology Department, has an
unusual interest. In fact, it's an
interest that fics right in with the
Halloween spirit in the air.
Sherry Ginn, respected
professor and upstanding citizen,
is a science fiction and horror film
addict.
"I guess you could say it was a
hobby she said. Ginn recently
shared her interest in these films
in a Chew On This lecture in the
Mendenhall Underground.
Close to 50 students and staff
gathered to enjoy free desserts and
drinks and listen to Ginn's lecture
entitled "Depictions of the Brain
and Mind in Classic Horror and
Science Fiction
The lecture focused on the
evolving portrayal of the brain and
included footage from both classic
and modern sci-fi and horror films.
Ginn covered the depiction of the
brain and mind in contexts ranging
from the classic Jekyll and Hyde
scenario to the more current
fascination with aliens invading
earth by gaining control over

As if there weren't enough
cultural diversity on the album,
Wenders shows his affection for
electronic music as well. Tracks by
triphopster Howie B,
groovemasters Mediski, Martin
and Wood grace the soundtrack, as
does "Untitled Heavy Beat a
collaboration between Q-Tip and

"Science doesn't have to be
dull Ginn said. There are a lot of
topics that one might never guess
could be attached to real science.
Ginn says she has found her
interest in science fiction and
horror films is often relevant to
topics discussed in the classroom.
Unfortunately, due to limited
time, Ginn is only able to touch on
it briefly in the classroom. The
Chew On This lecture series
provided the chance to address
these topics more fully. In fact,
many present in the audience
were Ginn's students.
Movies and television shape
the way many people perceive the
world around them. Ginn's lecture
and film presentation illustrated
how terrible it would be if people
took their ideas about the brain
and mind from popular media
portrayal.
As far as movies are concerned
though, Ginn has definite feelings
about the age-old classic black and
white vs. modern films debate.
She prefers classic horror and sci-fi
films.

closes out with one of those
aforementioned trendy
soundbites.
Despite the wide range of style
and culture, there is a strong unity
and flow of emotion from the
beginning to the end of the
soundtrack. Wenders may have
become too practiced at using
music to focus his cinematic
visions; the idea of possibly
ruining the music by watching the
movie is frightening. Still, if the
music is this good, then perhaps
the movie is as well.
English professor takes a
bite out of Dracula
D A 1. E W I 1.1.1 AS O N
SENIOl WRITER
Traditionally, horror has been cited
as a genre for the mindless masses,
definitely not something to be
taken seriously. But that attitude
has shifted slightly within the last
10 or 20 years. Not only has the
horror genre been taken seriously
by the literary and film industries,
but the academic world has
also illustrated its deep
interest in everything from
the walking dead to blood-
sucking vampires.
Dr. James Holte is just
one of the many scholars
who have placed an
intellectual, historical and
cultural spin on the horror genre
and, as a result, opened up entirely
new ways of viewing the terrifying
worlds lurking within.
Dr. Holte's fascination with
vampires dates back long before
he ever imagined being a scholar.
"I first became interested in
vampires watching old Bela Lugosi
movies as a kid recalls Dr. Holte.
'They were both frightening and
funny at the same time. When I
was in graduate school and was
getting a traditional degree in
literature, Bram Stoker's novel
Dracula was on the reading list.
Upon reading it, I discovered chat
it was in fact quite an effective
horror novel
Dr. Holte is an ECU English
professor who has taught
everything from Victorian and
Beat literatures to film history.
However, his true passion focuses
on the horror genre as represented
in literature and film, particularly
those dealing with vampires. Dr.
Holte's latest work is a book
entitled Dracula in the Dark: The
Dracula Film Adaptations, which
examines the various
representations of Dracula in film
over the decades. And, with
Halloween rapidly approaching,
the timing couldn't be better.
To celebrate the publication of
his book and the joyous Halloween
season. Dr. Holte will be giving a
talk about Dracula and his history
at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 29 at
Barnes & Noble bookstore,
located at the University
Commons shopping center on
South Evans Street. A few copies
of Dr. Holte's book will be
available for browsing and
purchasing.
Since Dr. Holte not only has a
love for literature but also film, he
saw vampires as being an ideal way
to connect the two. "Since I was
teaching film, looking at film
adaptations of literature, Dracula
seemed to be the perfect example
to use, especially since
there are literally almost a
hundred interpretations
based on Stoker's
conception
Dr. Holte's book reveals in
great detail the richness of
Dracula as a historical
figure, a myth and an icon
popular entertainment. "It
opens with the myth behind
Dracula, talks about the novel and
critical readings of the novel, and
then deals with the major film
adaptations says Dr. Holte. "It
also deals with vampire films in
general and has a filmography and
bibliography in the end for people
who haven't had enough blood and
teeth. There's a lot more out
there
The films highlighted in Dr.
Holte's book include such treats as
Tod Browning's 1931 Dracula, The
Horror of Dracula, Francis Ford
Coppola's adaptation of Bram
Stoker's Dracula, and Interview With
a Vampire.
Interview With a Vampire is
particularly significant, notes Dr.
Holte, because it is one of the
most popular novels (which was
later translated to a Tom Cruise
Brad Pitt film) thac emphasizes
the eroticism of vampirism. 'The
eroticism was always with the
vampire Dr. Holte stresses. "It's
part of ics basic make-up. The
vampire is a sexual being. What
recent adaptations have done is
make the vampire a much more
attractive figure They've
downplayed some of the violence,
made the vampire a more
sympathetic character. It's a
suffering vampire, rather than a
monster, the Other. One of the
trends in modern society is
sympathy for the marginalized, so
you can see why this
interpretation of the vampire

But those who prefer their
vampires to be less sympathetic
and more threatening, need not
worry. Dr. Holte reminds everyone
that there are still plenty of
stories, such as Robert Rodriguez's
From Dusk Till Danrn, where
vampires are simply the monster.
Holte couldn't have asked for
his book to come out at a better

The "Freak" site
(www. kcds.comcavalcadedefau 11

despite it having nothing to do
with bowling. This site was run by
a couple of gab who have had a
few "bad" dates. They provide
anecdotes about their various
dating experiences. "Bowling
Boy" centered around a guy who
was more into bowling than doing
the dog. She concluded the sordid
tale by saying this guy was also a
member of the Swing Out Sister
fan club, a sure sign of unbridled
dementia.
"The Intergalactic Bowling

sounded like it would be great.
However, when I clicked on it, I
was informed it was "forbidden:

Mr. Smith said he has a dream "of

Near the end of my trip down

story concerning a man who
exemplified the true spirit of
bowling. The article's title says it
all: "Police Finger Nude Bowler in
Alley Capet" Mr. Scott A. Hughes
of Greenfield, Wisconsin received
a $209.50 fine for stripping down
to his bowling shoes and cowboy
hat and proceeding to bowl. The
Classic Ianes bowling alley where
the incident took place had made
a "bowl naked, bowl free" offer.
They claimed they didn't think
anyone would take them seriously.
Hughes, however, bowled naked
for 30 minutes. Personally, I think
Hughes should have been
rewarded for sticking it out 'hat
long. Bravo, Mr. Hughes.
Bowling on the net was more
fun than a nose full of bowling
shoe sweat. I can't lie. It wasn't.
Almost, but a little short of a

Clutter credits Joshua Hoover,

Mendenhall Student Center, for
much of the work leading up to
the inaugural Glow-Bowling event
on Halloween.
'We sent Joshua Hoover to the

At this point, the bowling

will also be unveiling new masking

Abo, there will be music and food
will be allowed in the center.
"(Glow Bowling) came about as
we were trying to figure out ways
to update the image of the
bowling center Hoover said. "We
wanted to get more students
involved by making it a more
interesting place to go on the
weekend.
"I talked to students who work
with me and a few others outside.
They all seemed intrigued by the
glow-in-the-dark stuff. The closest
place like this is in Raleigh
The future holds more for the
bowling center's Glow Bowling.
Eventually, electronic scoring will
be added as well as glowing lanes.
Programming, according to
Hoover, will likely include two
Glow Bowling nights a month in
addition to the regular offerings.

The Pirates came out in the
ond period and continued their

ing a much deeper roster than
CJherrv Point. By using the deeper
rtster, they were able to keep
Mayers from getting tired. It was
aso good because they were able to
vjlork in a lot of the new players on
djic team.
"This was a good game to get in
seme of the new guys, and they
really stepped it up. This was a real
rjpsitive sign for the team said
Matt Oathout,
team captain.
The Pirates
scored twice
in the second
period on tries
by Don Rabun
and Kendall
Jones. At the
end of the
second period
it was 35-0 in
favor of the
Pirates.

then the Pirates were assured a well-
earned victory. ECU scored on a try
by Carl Brienzi. The Cherry Point
team also scored but failed on their
extra point attempt. R?r the Pirates,
extra-point kicker Eric Kunkel was
good on five out of six extra point

When you hit rock bottom,

After the Pirate's loss to
Tulane, some of the players
commented that things
couldn't get any worse and
emotionally ctie players were
drained. Split end Larry
Shannon said the perfect cure
was a win, and that's what
they got this past Saturday.
ECU broke a four-game
skid and finally recorded their
first conference win defeating
Memphis, 32-10. The Pirates
move to 2-5, 1-2 in the
conference, while Memphis
falls to 2-5 and 0-2 in C-USA.

CAA; while the Eagles fell to 7-8-1,
2-5 in the CAA. The eight wins are
an ECU schixil-record for victories
in a season.
In the scoreless first half, both
teams struggled to establish a
rhythm on the damp field. After 45
minutes, the Pirates had outshot
American 12 to 7.
In the second half, ECU was
much more effective in the
attacking third. The Pirates
recorded their first goal in the 62nd
minute on a free kick from 25 yards
by senior midfielder Courtney
Jurcich (Springfield, Va.) into the
far post. For Jurcich, it was her
second goal of the season.
At the 84:09 mark, sophomore
forward Jennifer Reiley (Alexandria,
Va.) played a throw-in from
freshman midfielder Katie Moran
(Oakton, Va.) and fired a shot into
the back of the net from 14 yards.
The goal was Reiley's fifth of the
year and tied her for the team lead
in points with 11.
The ECU defense lead by
sophomores Jill Davis (Pinehurst,
N.C.) and Dana Durbin (Cary.
N.C.) along with sophomore keeper
Amy Horton (Raleigh, N.C.)
withstood the American attack to
preserve the Pirates' fifth shutout
victory of 1997.
Horton finished with four saves,
anchoring the back line for ECU for
the entire 90 minutes. American
sophomore keeper Tara Felton
rallied 12 saves for the Eagles.
Reiley and freshman midfielder
Frin Cann (Bordentown, N.J.) led
ECU with six shot attempts apiece;
sophomore forward Lindsay Wynn
led AU with four shots.
"Certainly, it was great for us to
comeback after four consecutive
losses and get this win said ECU
head coach Neil Roberts. "This win
helps us in the conference
tournament seedings. It's nice to
set a record for wins in a season, but
I was more impressed today with
how we played as a team. Everyone
was focused and gave 100 percent
out there. All the girls stepped up
their play today, and when we do
that, we're a tough team to beat
The Pirates will return to CAA
action on Friday, Oct. 31, when they
host 12th-ranked George Mason.
First touch is scheduled for 3 p.m.
