Tillery, ECU Medical School celebrate 10 years of partnership
i
Community imploring
due to clinic
AMANDA BRIGGS
'STAFF WHITES
The town of Tillery is holding an
anniversary celebration to show its
appreciation to the ECU Medical School,
which helped found a health clinic there
over a decade ago.
In 1984, ECU Medical School, in
conjunction with Tillery, a small town on the
outskirts of Greenville, came together to
form a medical clinic to provide education
afcd health care to the community.
"The health clinic was started 10 years
ago in conjunction with the East Carolina
School of Medicine as a result of a health fair
in 1984, sponsored by the North Carolina
Rural Health Correlation. The clinic was
started by Dr. Nina Shaw Sehgai. The clinic
is run by volunteers, including medical
school students and the community said
Gary Grant, executive director of
Concerned citizens of Tillery.
The high cost of medical treatment is
reduced by using volunteers. The clinic
offers free health care for needy recipients.
"The clinic was set up because of high
costs of medical care and racism. Ninety-
eight percent of the Tillery community is
African- American, and they were not well
received by other physicians Grant said.
The community seems to be improving
due to the education from the clinic. The
clinic's main goal was, and still is, education.
The clinic provides service and training
in first aid, community health advocacy,
teaching how to monitor blood pressure and
hypertension and many other educational
components. The clinic and the partnership
with ECU School of Medicine has made the
community much healthier. Seventy
percent of all people in the
community over 60 have
made drastic dietary changes
due to the education
provided by the clinic
Grant said.
Presently, 23 medical
students volunteer their
services to the community.
In return, the students gain
valuable experience in
patient treatment.
"This is a classroom for
the medical school students.
Interns and fourth-year
students perform the exams
patients Grant said.
A grant provided from Learn and Serve
America was obtained in 1995. This has
allowed the clinic to maintain the former

on the
programs and add some new educational
and recreational activities.
"Dr. Sehgai extended allied health
services at the clinic; a
walking trail was built, a
basketball court is currently
being built, an occupational
and physical therapy
program has been started
and we are now able to
expand our services due to
the grant from Learn and
Serve America Grant said.
The anniversary celebration
will be held Nov. 15, 1997,
starting at 9 a.m. and
continuing throughout the
day. Participants will enjoy
an array of different activities.
"A dedication of the walking trail will be
held at 9 a.m. Nov. 15. We will have a whole
day of activities planned to celebrate the 10-
year anniversary of the clinic and its
partnership with, the medical school. There
will be a recognition of the third year with
ground water, community protection
program, food, special recreation class
directed by Dr. Elizabeth Heininger,
community protection programs and
intergenerationai activities with elders. The
activities with the elders include a dance.
The elders are going to teach the younger
generation how to dance, and in turn, the
youth will teach the elders the hottest new
dances. The day should be a lot of fun
Grant said.
The activities for the anniversary were
set up by the Director of Community
Health Project Doris Taylor Davis, student
coordinator Gray Davis, Director of the-
special recreation classes Dr. Eiizabeth-
Heininger, Director of Learn and Serve
DeeDee Glasscoff and an eight-person:
community organizing committee.

Some reps concerned,

rith 33,642 people registered to vote, a
huge voter turnout was expected last
Tuesday; however, only 5,609 voted.
"I'm kind of ashamed of the voter
turnout, although I believe that a majority of
people didn't vote because they didn't want
to see a change in representatives said
Chuck Autry, who won for representative-at-
largc.
"I don't think it was just students that
didn't vote, but the people of the city also. I
believe the people were satisfied with the
city's efforts and wanted to continue seeing
those efforts
Autry has represented the city at large for
the past two terms.
"My main priority is crime. I would like
to see a drug-free university. We have a lot
of good programs; I believe the 'Weed and
Seed' drug program has helped, and the
police are beginning to be trusted by the
people Autry said.
Autry owns Chuck Autry's Paint-Body
Shop located on Dickinson Avenue. He has
held two drug programs there, with over
100 people attending each meeting.
"We also have fund raisers and donated
$2,000 to the Cancer Fund at the hospital
last Christmas. Soon we'll start collecting
food for the needy. Autry's Body Shop is the
point where they drop off food Autry said.
Autry also went on to say he has a good
relationship with the students.
"If the students want to register a
complaint, I will deal with it myself and not
just turn it over to the city Autry said.
Jack Wall, who lost to Autry for
representative-at-large, believes that the
majority of people will not vote unless it
concerns national or state attention. He
Inez Fridley
commented about the movement of city
council years to an off-
year.
"In the two previous
terms that I served, I won
in an election which had
40 percent of city votes,
which were on even years,
like state, federal and
senate elections are.
After city council voting
was moved to an uneven
year a few years ago, the
city votes went down to 22 percent. This
year voting turnout was only 16 percent,
which is very disappointing Wall said.
The question of why there was such a
low voter turnout remains to be answered.
"I feel that the switch to an off-year is a
preventative method to keep the majority
from voting Wall said.
The city council election is held every
two years.
This year's winner of District 3, Inez
Fridley, won by 176 votes against Steve
Steve McLawhorn
McLawhorn, an ECU student. Two years
ago she won by 38 to another ECU student
runner, Bill Gheen. This
year Greenville
redistricted.
"I feel that students
have as much a voice as
anyone. When they
redistricted most
students were deluded
and moved around to
other districts. I believe
this was done to protect
Fridley's district because she almost lost to a
student two years ago Wall said.
Wall believes the concern about city
council voting by the students and citizens
of Greenville will improve if the elections
are moved to every two years, alongside
state and federal elections.
Mayor Nancy Jenkins, who won 4,980
votes, feels very strongly for the university
and the students.
"I have worked for the past 35 years for
the good of the citizens and the students. I
consider our students the 'adopted citizens'
of the city and I treasure them very much
Jenkins said.
However, Jenkins feels that the students
do not feel the same way and wants to
reassure students that she wants their
input.
"We have seven city council members
over town who students can address their
concerns to. We believe the students of
Greenville are more an integral part of city
than in any other city Jenkins said.
City Council meetings are usually held
every week on the third floor of City Hall
and all are welcome to attend. Jenkins said
the meetings arc well-ordered and serious.
"The students are welcome to come to
any city council meeting. I bet 90.percent
of our students haven't seen our City
Council meetings Jenkins said. Jenkins
also said her door is open to any student who
wishes to discuss a concern.
"One of the top priorities of the
infrastructure is crime. The university and

New area code for
western NC starts
in March
CHARLOTTE (AP) The new
western North Carolina area code
of 828 will gointo use March 22,
10 weeks earlier than previously
announced.
The change will give callers
more time to adjust, BellSouth
Corp. said Monday.
The new area code zone is
being split from 704 and covers
Hickory, Asheville, Morganton
and Shelby and most of the rest of
western North Carolina. Callers
will be able to dial either 704 or
828 until Oct. 5, 1998.
After that, the new area code
becomes mandatory.
New area codes also are set to
take effect Dec. 15 in the
Greensboro and Winston-Salem
area, which becomes 336 after
splitting from 910; and March 22
in the northeast part of the state,
which splits from 919 into the
new area code of 252.
Charlotte police increase
speed enforcement
CHARLOTTE (AP) m Police
; have written about 330 tickets in
three weeks during a crackdown
? on speeders in Charlotte and
! Mecklenburg County.
Police officers say they could
have written more tickets, but
concentrated on the worst
offenders.
It's like shooting ducks in a
barrel said Officer Wes Eubank.
The aim of the campaign is to
prevent fatal wrecks.
' It's hard, to stop the number
of accidents, but if we get people
to drive slower, the number of
serious accidents will go down
Eubank said.
Last year, the county had 64
traffic fatalities. So far this year,
the number of fatals stands at 49.
In August, the AAA Carolinas
motor club ranked Mecklenburg
as the most dangerous North
Carolina county for drivers for the
third year in a row.

share needle
in science project
COLLINS, Ohio (AP) At least
18 fifth-graders used the same
needle to take their own blood
during a science class experiment.
Several diseases can be
transmitted through the shared
use of needles, including
hepatitis, an inflammation of the
liver that can be fatal, and AIDS.
The students took the samples
I about three weeks ago so they
- could examine their blood under a
microscope.
The needle was disinfected
with alcohol, but the Western
Reserve School District later
found out that may not have been
enough to stop the possible
spread of disease, superintendent

Program
emphasizes
moderation, not
abstinence
AMANDA BR10GS
STAFF WRITE
Drinking before bed to relax,
having one too many drinks at a
party and the inability to say no
when a drink is offered may be
signs of alcoholism according to a
faculty member of ECU's School
of Medicine, who directs a
substance abuse program. The
program, designed to help with
substance abuse, called Drink
Wise, promotes moderation
instead of abstinence and is
gaining national attention.
Theresa D. Edmondson, the
Director of the Drink Wise
program for Alcohol and Drug
Abuse Studies, at East Carolina
University's School of Medicine,
said many people are responding
to the program. Edmondson
beleivcs this is due to the
expansion of the program and
articles printed in both a Detroit
news paper and U.S. News and
World Report.
"This is a genuinely different
program in helping with alcohol
abuse. The program is not
abstinence based, it teaches
moderation in drinking said
Edmondson.
Problem drinkers are people
who have had problems due to
drinking such as receiving
citations for Driving While
Intoxicated,showing up late to
work, or marital problems. They
do not drink steadily, they know
they have problems, and they do
not go through withdrawal when
they stop drinking.
Alcoholics show signs such as
persistence of drinking even with
health problems; inability to cut
down, tolerance, giving up work or
family to drink, devoting time to
obtaining and drinking alcohol;

Blanch Forbes is the only new
City Council member this year;
she defeated last year's member,
Van Brown, in District 4. She
hasn't served for the past two
terms, but served for six terms
prior to that.
"I felt good about winning. I
had people come to me and ask
me to run. I feel that a lot of
people were dissatisfied with this
district and wanted to see a
change Forbes said.
Forbes wasn't that concerned
with voter turnout.
"In my district there was a
turnout of 30 percent. I believe
the low turnout was because
there was no opposition for
Mayor, and also the election is
held on an off-year Forbes said.
Forbes' main priorities for
Greenville are safety, traffic
problems and the parking
situation downtown.
"I feel we need to work with
the department of transportation
to solve traffic problems. I am
more for unmarked cars and
policemen in plain dress in the

Broad is focusing her term in

improving the annual attendance
rate, bringing enhanced
technology to the students, not
vice versa, and lastly, establishing a
partnership with the K-12 schools.
"Having a close relationship
with grade schools, I feel, will

ends Broad said.
Other strategies include
making tuition affordable enough
and providing adequate financial
aid. Broad would also like to see
universities partner with local

universities accessible to students
who need to remain home based.
Broad seems overall impressed

"We have had success with the
moderation program. The people in
the program do not need
abstinence because they are not
alcoholics, they are not dependent
on alcohol. These people admit
that they have a problem, and want
to change their habits, because the
alcohol can cause social, physical,
and emotional harm said
Edmondson.
Edmondson pointed out alcohol
abuse contradicts the current trend
toward a healthy lifestyle.
" Recently society has been on a
big campaign about health choices.
We are taught to modify our fat,
choleric, and cholesterol intake,
but there is not any information on
the moderation of alcohol. Good
health practices should include
teaching appropriate limits with
alcohol, said Edmondson.
The Drink Wise program has
been successful in Canada for 23
years.
"Other countries have alreadv
formed moderation programs. The
Drink Wise program is the first
state wide alcohol moderation
program. We are only the second
prevention program. Doctors in
the area are very excited. The
Drink Wise program is the largest
effort made in the United States
said Edmondson.
75 percent of heavy- drinkers do
not become alcoholics, but the
Drink Wise program is not focused
for people who have a dependence
for alcohol. "The program will not
admit people with severe alcohol or
other drug dependencies, nor
people that are going through a life
crisis said Edmondson.
Most problem drinkers believe
that the binge drinking began in
their 20's, at college parties,
hanging out with co-workers, and
other social events. Research has
shown that college students with
problem drinking and put into the
program reduced binge drinking by
80 percent.
"Most people that are problem
drinkers begin binge drinking in
their college years. Every year you
hear about a college student dying
Thursday, November 13, 1997 3
from alcohol poisoning. Many
people as they grow older naturally
evolve into moderation, but some
people continue with their habits.
We need to teach good practices
with drinking said Edmondson.
The program only allows for no
more than nine drinks within one
week for women, no more than
three drinks in one day. For men it
is only 14 drinks within one week,
and no more than four drinks in one
day.
"Most people do not know how
to clarify responsible drinking.
Some of the ideas we promote is
long intervals between drinking,
amount of drinks you have, and
never drive after you have been
drinking said Edmondson.
"The program is inexpensive,
$700. This treatment is relatively
cheap compared to in-treatment
programs that can cost well over
$700 on the first day. Also, the brief
intervention seems to work
wonderfully, 70 percent of all
individuals that enter into the
program are still successful after
twoyears said Edmondson.
Toll free hot lines have been set
up to reach the Drink Wise
program at 1-888-816-2736.

This Thursday night, ECU will be known to millions of people, thanks to ESPN.
The ECUCincinnati game will be televised nationally and will be the only football game played
on Thursday night at 8 p.m. The players are psyched and you, the fens, should be too. ECU has
aired all its home games on Fox this year, but this is the first ESPN coverage this season.
Fans last year painted their faces, bodies and made signs. Why not do the same and even more
this year? Get crazy with the paint. The ESPN camera's love to pan the crowd and put wild and
crazy students on TV So this is your time to be seen nationally.
It's vital that you pack the stands early, as the cameras will pan the crowd for the cheering fans.
To say the least, it would be embarrassing if every seat were not filled. This is ECU's chance to
shine nationally, and it's important that every student come prepared to support their team.
But, on the other hand, you don't want to be so drunk that you make a fool of yourself. Not only
are you representing yourself, you represent ECU. If fans tune in and see a bunch of sloppy,
drunk students, that's what they will think of our school, not the kind of impression school
officials or the football players want the fans to convey.
But more important this is the time to support your football team. They are on a three game
winning streak, and this is the last home game for the seniors. It will be a special day all around
and you can put the icing on the cake with your support.
A lot of emotions will be flying around among the players and they have always said it makes a
game better to see the fans in the crowd going nuts supporting what they are doing on the field.
The football team puts in hard hours of practice on and off the field and the least we can do as
students is show them how much we appreciate their work. Let's make their last home game a
special one and fill them with memories they will never forget.
Get your tickets and your purple and gold face paint ready for the last home game of the season
and represent your school and players well.
OPINION
DAY
Columnist
Greeks have much to learn
The dehumanization of
Greeks can be detected in
even tie way they relate to
one another
From the art of
saying thank you to
how to treat your
fellow man, the Greeks
have a lot to learn.
The cruelty of the Greek system
was brought home to me on a bright
day in the spring of 1986. While
sitting in the outside area of the
campus pub, I noticed all the tables
had been occupied by large
numbers of fraternity brothers and
sorority sisters. It was traditional at
Berkeley for the Greeks to meet and
party there at that time of the
afternoon. You wouid think that a
school as distinguished as Berkeley
would have a relatively civilized
student body, a belief that the
school's Greeks belied.
Sitting surrounded by these
people, I attempted to read a
homework assignment for one of my
history classes. At some point I
noticed a sudden laughter
originating simultaneously from all
the tables. I looked up and, on the
other side of the iron fence that
enclosed the tables, F saw the object
of all the laughter. A fat, poor black
man, whose babbling confirmed
serious mental problems, was
standing there faced by several frat
boys, who had risen from their seats
and made this disturbed man the
target of sadistic taunts. For several
moments, I observed the reactions
of those who made this medley of
meanness their focus. Beyond the
collective jeering and brutal
entertainment, it was what these
people failed to do that so incensed
me. There, amidst well over 100
people, I never detected a single
objection to this most disgraceful of
behavior. I saw not a single look of
regret or disapproval, and observed
not a single person leave out of
disgust.
months went by, when I
observed a similar incident on a
smaller scale. In a bar one night on
the popular south-side, ECU's
equivalent of Fifth Street, I
observed no less than ten frat boys
? I counted them ? taunting a
poot, obviously deranged black
woman. This time I acted. I
approached these sorry excuses for
human beings; I remember my
exact words: "You boys are real
brave, ten of you to give shit to one
female Their reaction was as
degraded as the one I was reproving
them for, letting out a collective roar
of "AH and, of course, never
articulating a response. I convinced
the poor woman to leave with me
and escorted her down the street,
where I left her, babbling some
bitter words against her detractors. I
returned to the same bar, where
several moments later, one of the
frat boys approached my table and
offered me a quarter for a cigarette,
a request which I honored. This is
the most gracious thing I've ever
seen a Greek do, and these are only
a few of the deplorable observations
I've made over the years.
The dehumanization of Greeks
can be detected in even the way
they relate to oive another. In Greek
Personals, published in this paper,
the very act of expressing gratitude
constitutes a means of self-centered
indulgence. Look at this thank you
message from a recent TEC: you
made us proud by representing us
during Homecoming! We love you
In a mere seven words, the writer
has succeeded in using the word us
twice. Gratitude here is expressed
in terms of what the person being
thanked did, not on the kind of
person they arc. Here's another
example: "Thank you, Delta Zeta,
for coming to our house for dinner
last Thurs. We had a great rime
From the first part of the sentence,
I get the feeling Alpha Delta
considers it a privilege to allow
Delta in their house. But it's the
lack of mutuality that I notice so
missing here, the exclusive focus on
Alpha's own good time. There is no
mention that Alpha hopes their
guests shared in the happiness.
From the an of saying thank you
to how to treat your fellow man, the
Greeks have a lot to learn.
LETTER
to the Editor
Cochran's research inaduquate, unresearched
I am writing in response to William
Cochran's "Do away with required
English courses As a graduate
teaching assistant at ECU, I find Mr.
Cochran's opinion unresearched and
inadequate.
The combination of English 1100
and 1200 serves as a liaison for the
college writing curriculum. The
courses arc structured to inform
freshmen of the methods necessary
to complete the writing process.
This also includes the transition of
one's thoughts or ideas into writing.
This form of communication most
often presents the greatest level of
difficulty for the student.
I have often heard that you
cannot undo 12 years of negligence
in one semester. Thus, there are two
mandatory writing courses.
Unfortunately, most students enter
college with little to no knowledge
of proper writing methods. Please
understand, the writing process is a
stair-step process. By providing
students with the foundations of
writing, we are saving them from
future frustrations in the classroom
and in life.
If you do, indeed, take these
students and place them into
specified classes according to their
INTENDED major, then you are
doing an injustice to the students.
Come now, Mr. Cochran, how many
times did you change your major?
How many of your friends and
acquaintances changed their
majors? In turn, your
recommendation would put these
students further behind in their
educational careers as they would
have to take the preliminary writing
class for each specified major.
Therefore, I would highly
recommend that you. Mr. Cochran.
reconsider your statements and
teach in the classroom before
candidly presenting your opinion.
Please keep in mind that what
sometimes looks good in theory
does not always work in practice.

Subliminal advertising easy money?
Hidden pictures of naked men
and women may not work
now, but give researchers a
couple of decades and watch
what happens. Science is
progressing at an alarming
rate. The smarter we get, the
faster we get smart.
"Drink Coca-Cola That phrase
was flashed upon Kim Novak's face
during the movie the Picnic and
with that, Coke sales rose nearly 60
percent. It was flashed too fast for
the conscious mind to sec, but easy
enough for the unconscious mind to
see and understand. Thus, a
Pandora's box was opened.
Technology for subliminal
advertising has been around since
the late 1950's. Today the
technology is more refined. Sex sells
and advertisers know this.
Take a gander at most of your
Kp culture magazines: Glamour,
oplc, foguc, Sports Illustrated,
most if not all have some type of
subliminal advertisements. Most
subliminal advertisements include
pictures of male andor female
gcnitalia. Others just write the
words sex in hard to see areas. If you
know what to look for, seeing these
vulgar ads is relatively easy.
Don't believe me? The most
common example is the Camel
cigarette package. A male with a
distinct erection can be seen in the
drawing of the camel. The now-
defunct cartoon caricature Joe
Camel is supposedly a subversive
advertisement. Joe Camel's nose is
often claimed to be a representation
of a penis.
Some would say I have a dirty
mind and am seeing what I want. Ir
I sec something in an
advertisement, that is sex related, I
have a dirty mind? Do I instead
pretend I did not sec the image?
Sure, some of the advertisements
with nudity or simple "SEX" might
be pure coincidence. As more and
more examples exist, the chance of
all this being a coincidence is slim to
none. As one of my friends puts it,
"Don't trust coincidences; you'll end
up getting killed by one
Subliminal messages are easy to
stick in print ads. Most ads are
cither computer touch-ups or
drawings. Artists can play with these
ads to show your unconscious mind
a suggestive message.
Even television ads arc easy to
play with. Add a l3000th-of-a-
second picture of what you feel will
influence your audience to buy your
product, repeat it several times and
watch sales increase.
Look for yourself. Subliminal
messages are easy to hide in ice
cubes, drinks, liquids or patterns in
clothes. Vaseline, Liquid Plumr and
most alcoholic and cigarette
manufacturers have used subliminal
advertisements.
Research is divided upcji
whether subliminal advertisements
work. Of course, given ene-ugh
money ? something,the public
relations and advertisement
industry have a lot of? I can find
researchers to prove or disapprove
anything you want.
If subliminal advertisements, for
the most part, do not work, great.
Then a problem exists with this
Orwellian technology. Hidden
pictures of naked men and women
may not work now, hut ghfc
researchers a couple of decades antf
watch what happens. Science is
progressing at an alarming rate. The
smarter we get, the faster we get
smart.
I am aware of no state or federal
law prohibiting subliminal
advertisements. No proof of
subliminal advertisements working
is the most used argument. Fine,
they do not work. Why not outlaw
the suggestive material?
The other big argument is
defining subliminal advertisements.
Forty years since the use of
subliminal messages in selective
movie theaters and we still cannot
define this flagrant violation of our
minds.
Some psychologiscs even go as
as to say our subconscious
remembers most everything wc see,
taste, smell, feel, hear or do.
Consider this: the human eye looks
at nearly 100,000 images in a day
You will be lucky to recall l5000th
of what you saw or, in some cases,
what you did not see.
OPINION
Race not factor for segregation
Is tie symbolic melting pot
image just a myth? Has
America had enough of
multiadturalism ?
Racism wrought through
ignorance of each other's
cultures increases every
negative aspect you can think
of.
Politics, race and religion - three
very prickly issues which often
cause many friendships to break up,
families to squabble and sometimes,
nations to divide.
My mom frequently advises me
to avoid these topics. She does not
believe in "inst'iiuing" any r pe of
emotional over-boil. Rr her, these
subjects arc definitely taboo.
However, as far as I'm concerned,
particular situations are just plain
hard to ignore.
For example, I believe that the
majority of students on campus
practice some type of "mutual
segregation This in itself is not
necessarily a bad thing, depending
on how you view it, but evidently
people feel uncomfortable even
acknowledging this fact.
Birds of a feather flock together.
as the old saying goes. It's totally
understandable when blacks want
to hang out with blacks and whites
with whites. Just check out the
Wright Place and it becomes
obvious. Caucasian students seem
to prefer lounging around the tables
and chairs set outside the snack bar.
African American students, on the
other hand, prefer congregating
next to the Rawl building, which is
directly opposite the Wright place.
This is where they often sit and chat
with each other. It happens
naturally.
In a few of my classes, students
were required to break up into small
groups to make presentations. I
found it extremely interesting that
all of the black students separated
into their own groups, as did the
whites, regardless of whether or not
they knew each other.
One more example: a couple of
days ago I was at the Mendenhall
lounge when I saw a similarly
revealing situation. Several students
were watching the same TV
program. As is usually the case,
these students were bunched into
their own race groups. Several of
them passed occasional remarks to
other members of their own group,
shouted at the TV and offered
encouragement and advice to the
actors. But totally ignored the
opposite race group altogether. It's
as if they did not exist.
Personally speaking, I don't
believe in forcing anyone into
situations that they find
disagreeable. We all know that
segregation is illegal. Kaput. A thing
of the past. But what do you do
about "de facto segregation as my
friend March calls it? Is the
symbolic melting pot image just a
4
myth? Has America had enough of
mulriculturalism?
Racism wrought through
ignorance of each other's cultures
increases every negative aspect you
can think of. Take hate crimes as an
example. a
Danny Gilmore was driving

Cleveland when he had a minors?
accident with a moped rider. Barely3 r

the street, one of the blacks droveS
Gilmore's truck over him and fatally

the blacks cheered loudly This was?9
in Jury 1988. f

four other blacks decided to kill thcr

The sand dunes of the Outer Banks have been the sight of flight attempts from the Wright Brothers to amateur hang gliders.
PHOTO BY PAT KID
Pat Reid
SENIOR WRITER
Life in Greenville got you down? You
don't feel like shelling ouj the bucks for
a big time movie on a little time screen,
no good bands are playing and your
usual hang-outs are looking way past
routine. Then break away and
experience the adventures that wait
only a few hours away in North
Carolina's Outer Banks.
In a mere two and one half to three
hours (depending on how you go) you
could be driving along the beach on
North Carolina's beautiful Outer Banks.
Of course, it's 3 little cold this time of
year for swimming or sunbathing, so
whar rise, is rhere to do? Discover what
the Wright Brothers did decades ago:
the sand dunes of the Outer Banks are
perfect for flying.
In recent years, hang gliding has
become a popular form of flying. In fact,
the inventor of hang gliding lives on the
Outer Banks himself and, despite his
getting along in years, he still manages
to get in frequent flying time. Now,
most people turn pale at the thought of
soaring above the ground with a sheet
and some aluminum strapped to their
body. But beginner hang gliding isn't
like that at all. In fact, for the beginner
course you only get a few feet off the
ground and even if you crash, the soft
cand of Jockey's Ridge keeps you from
pain or injury.
Kitty Hawk Kites, the largest
outfitter in the Outer Banks, offers
beginning and advanced certification.
So, if the idea of flying through the
clouds is for you, try tandem hang
gliding. In tandem hang gliding you and
an instructor are lifted in the air by boat
in the summer and by ultralight in
winter. Depending on which package
you desire you can go up to 1,500 or
2,000 ft. After reaching the destination
altitude, you are cut free from the tow
craft and allowed to land the glider. If
you panic or start to mess up, the
instructor is right there to guide you
along.
Still, there are many who have no
desire to feel their feet leave the
Sound. So why not try a kayak ecotour?
utcr Banks Outdoors offers 12
different kayak tours ranging from
leisurely floating down canals to going
out searching for dolphins. Most cost
S30-S40 which includes all your
equipment and expert guides. Or, for
the real adventure in you, package deals
are available for multiple kayak
excursions.
Does kayaking sound too challenging
for you? Don't knock it until you've
tried it. With your guide to help you
along and provide instruction, you'll be
paddling like a pro in no time. Plus, in a
kayak you can go where few other craft
can fit or maneuver. This allows you to
get intimately close with many species
of plants and ducks. Muskrats can often
be seen as well. For the real nature
fanatic, summer tours often see many
varieties of snakes along the shore as
well.
Still, if paddling doesn't quite appeal
to you either, you could always rent gear
ranging from in-line skates and bikes to
wind riders and catamarans. Or just stop
by their shop and try the rock climbing
wall. Perhaps you just want a quiet
weekend at the beach to take in some
sights. Besides being a great historical
location, thanks in part to the Wright
Brothers, the Outer Banks offers many
public events.throughout the year. The
next event like this will be "Kites With
Lights" on December 6. Kite
enthusiasts from all over will be there to
provide a unique show on Jockey's
Ridge in Kitty Hawk.
No matter what you're in to, if it is
outdoorsy, there is a way to do it on the
Outer Banks. So, next time you're
sitting at home planning another boring
weekend, pick up the phone, gather
some friends and do something totally
different. There's a whole world of
excitement and adventure out there
just waiting for you.
Jockey's Ridge is a popular spot for beginners.

Opera was first
performed in 1875
RON CHERUBINi JR.
SENIOK WRITER
NEW YORK ? If only Georges
Bizet could have lived to see what
became of his little lady.
Though he died just weeks after
Carmen was pulled from the stage at
the Opera-Comique in Paris in
March of 1875, Bizet did give life to
a grand-scale operatic
masterpiece which has
since become one of opera's
most-noted productions.
Following the opera's
ungraciously-received
debut, Bizet reaped
posthumus acclaim for his
dark, comedic adaptation of
the 1845 novel by Prosper
M6rimee. Once shunned by
the artistic community in
Paris, Carmen is embraced
by today'sjstage performers
and opera-goers.
For those performers
fortunate enough to land a
role in a major production of
Carmen, it is an experience
that transcends the
performance itself. For
conductor Delta David
Gier, the experience has
been nothing short of
fantastic. And, for the more
than 60 other performers in
the current Western Opera
Theater touring ensemble,
Carmen's reception has been
nothing like what Biet
em: i'j'I ihat ojv i ni.V
more than a century ago.
"What makes Carmen a lot
of fun is that it's very accessi-
ble to audiences Gier said.
"It's a double-edged sword. A
big portion of it is comedic,
but in the end, it's tragic.
The audience hates to see it
end. It's almost like, you hate
to see her die, because you've
really enjoyed
"(Director) Ted Altschuler has
done a wonderful job. This
production is very, very fun in places
and evokes a lot of emotions
To hear Gier talk about the
production, it is hard to believe that
this masterpiece could have ever
bombed on stage. Gier explained
the intitial reception.
Carmen was doomed to failure
he said. "Bizet was set up by the
Opera-Comique. At the time, Bizet
was seen as an outsider and
perceived to be a disciple of Wagner,
who was considered to be very anti-
French
Gier, who is conducting with the
Western Opera Theater for the first

time in his career, explained that by
opening at the Op6ra-Cemique
rather than at the grand opera in
Paris, Bizet's dark comedy had no
chance of being accepted by the
Parisian opera community.
"Opera-Comique was sort of a
theater of family values he said.
"People could count on certain
stock characters. People took their
families to the Op6ra-
Comiquethcrc were children
there. Carmen had no gods, or
kingswhich is what people
expected to see
Bizet's Carmen had anything but
stock characters. The story's main
characters are of a class not normally
brought to the stage in those days.
So, it failed.
Eventually, it was
those missing
elements, the
exposure of the dark
underpinnings of
society, that did, and
has since, packed
the opera houses.
What the Western
Opera Theater's
production of Carmen
has is plenty of
talented performers
and loads of energy.
Western Opera
Theater, the touring
branch of the San
Francisco Opera,
exists to provide a
professional venue
for some of the
world's finest up-
and-coming stage
performers. Carmen
is no exception.
Gier, who is a veteran
conductor and an assistant
conductor with the famed
New York Philharmonic,
has been been impressed
with the young, but high-
ly-professional cast though
he admits it has been chal-
lenging from his perspec-
tive.
"You'd think that the
biggest challenge would
be keeping the
performance fresh, but that hasn't
been a problem he said. "It's
always fresh and livery. My biggest
challenge is to keep up with all
three Carmens
The story of Carmen, is
essentially that of a young,
sensuous gypsy girl who seduces
the good soldier Don Jose
Eventually, Carmen tires of Jose
and spurns him, oniy to bring on
tragic consequences. Throughout
the opera, the audience istaken on
an emotional ride filled with
tension, romance, comic relief and
ultimately sadness.
uCarmen is the perfect opera to
cut your teeth on Gier said. "The
characters are very much alive and
it packs a variety of music in the
score.
Gier has found that audiences
have been more than receptive to
the Western Opera Theater's
production.
"This wing of the San Francisco
Opera gets opera out to where it
normally doesn't get Gier said.
"It's a thrill seeing 2-3,000 people
in the audience in a place like
Butte, Montana
The show in Greenville comes
at the end of a very long tour for the
ensemble, but both performers
assured that that shouid be no
concern to concert-goers.
"Those shows are towards the
end of the tour Gier said. "So,
we'll be giving vintage

The future of
Pirate Hoops
Basketball teams look for
freshmen to step up
James Camp
STAFF WRITRR .
Sports fans it's that time of year again. Time for the
leaves to change colors, time to get your jacket out
of the closet and time for the balls to start
bouncing at Minges Coliseum. That's right, it's
college basketball season and that means a new
season here at ECU. With every new season there
comes a group of unknowns to the program. Who
are they? They are the freshmen.
Every year freshmen enter basketball programs
ready to work hard everyday. Most are away from
home for the first time and are trying to balance a
new college lifestyle with their athletic schedule.
Throughout their first year or so few will get very
little recognition. Some will step it and be noticed,
while others might not get the chance because
they play behind upper classmen. So here is a brief
look at the freshmen of the men's and women's
basketball teams:
For the men's team Head Coach Joe Dooley and
his staff have four new players to work with.
"We're really excited about having all four of
these guys Dooley said.
One plus for the men's team is they return a lot
of key players from last years team to help out with
these new guys.
The freshmen backcourt players this year are
Larry Morrisey, a 6-foot-2 point guard who played
high school ball at Fayetteville's Seventy-First
High School. Joining him in the backcourt is
Vlnston Sharpe, who can play either shooting guard
or small forward. Sharpe is 6-foot-5 and played at
Hillside High in Durham.
The men's team has also added two new front-
court players this year. The first is 6-foot-7 Steven
Branch, a forward from St. Benedicts High School
in East Orange, N.J. Another newcomer you can't
miss, who sat out last year, is Alphons Van Ierland.
The big guy is 7-foot-0 and hails from Tilburg,
Netherlands.
These are the new players for the men's team.
They arc young and trying to gain experience.
"Our goal is to get them as much playing time as
possible to help them gain experience Dooley
said.
For the women's team Coach Anne Donavan
and her staff might not be as fortunate as the men.
The Lady Pirates are only returning six veteran
players. That means some of these young freshmen
will have to step it up early.
"We're looking for all the girls to come in and
contribute early, especially in the backcourt where
we currently have three sophomores Donovan
said.
To help out in the backcourt there is Tricia
Peckham a 5-foot-6 point guard from Apex High in
Cary and Charette Guthrie who is 5-foot -2 out of
North Forsythe High in Winston Salem. Both of
these players could see minutes early due to their
play during the preseason. Also in the backcourt is
Jennifer Moretz a 5-foot-8 guard from Watauga
High in Boone.
For the Lady Pirate frontcourt there is Nicki
Brown a 6-foot from Penn Hill High in Pittsburgh,
Pa. Donavan believes Brown will play a significant
role early on.
"Nicki has played strong so far and can expect to
contribute pretty early Donavan said.
Also, the Lady Pirates add Anne Murden who is
5-foot-8 from Nansemond Suffolk Academv in
Portsmouth, Va and Opal Johnson, a 6-foot post
player from Leesville Road High in Raliegh.

For the Lady Pirates, these freshmen will have
to play hard and try to contribute. With so few
?eturning plavers there is no guarantee of any
players position or playing time.
"There are no locks on starting spots for
this team, these young girls need to come
in here and play hard, Donavan said.

A Thursday night ESPN game is exciting for the fans, but a lot more
work for the players.
With the shortened week, the Pirates have altered their prac-
tices to accommodate for the shortened practice time. Head Coach
Steve Logan said this week in drills the team will work as a whole
unit.
"We just have to go out and get the game plan as quick as we
can Logan said. "What you do is cut down on your fundamental
work and individual work and everything becomes a team-orientat-
ed practice to try to get the big picture as quickly as possible
ECU will have to concentrate on stopping the Bearcat's option,
which has netted them 2,219 yards through 10 games.
"They're an option football team Logan said. "They're going to
run it and throw it as little as possible. If you can win second down,
they'll break down and throw it on third down. They're not partic-
ularly prolific but at the same time, when the quarterback gets
loose, that's their best weapon
That weapon is Chad Plummer. The junior quarterback has
completed 80 of 175 passes for 1,107 yards and six touchdowns, but
more importantly, he has rushed for 631 yards, and seven touch-
downs, which leads the team. Besides Plummer, the Bearcats have
four other players who have rushed for over 100 yards this season.
Running backs Robert Cooper, Daryl Royal and Orlando Smith
have rushed for 542, 437 and 165 yards, respectively. Fullback
Landon Smith has 439 yards
In comparison, ECU has two 100-yard rushers ? Scott Harley
has 411 yards this year, and Jamie Wilson follows with 254. In the
air, the ECU receiving corps got a blow last week, when Larry
Shannon took a blow to his healthy, right ankle. Earlier in the year.
Shannon severely sprained his left ankle, which kept him out for
the first four games. Logan said he is definitely out this week, but
next week is still a question.
"Larry, probably is done Logan said. "I know he's not going to
play this week. Whether he comes back next week or not I don't
know
A bright spot among the Pirate receivers has been Troy Smith.
With 695 yards and three touchdowns, Smith has been the go-to
guy with Shannon out with injuries.

PAUL Kaplan
STKK WRITRR
After losing 10 consecutive games,
the ECU women's volleyball
team's "never give up, fight until it
is over" attitude has motivated
them to win their past three
games.
In their last three games, the
Pirates have beaten UNC-
Wllmington, James Madison
University and Elon College. The
Elon College game which came
after over one full month without
a win, was the catalyst in
motivating the team through their
next two wins.
"We've turned around back to
where we were in the beginning of
the season; back to where we don't
quit Head Coach Kim Walker
said after the win over UNC-W
Mondav night with their win
over UNC-W 15-6, 12-15, 13-15,
15-4, 15-12, the Pirates improved
their overall record to 15-17 and
their CAA conference record to 4-
8. In the fifth and final match of
Monday night's game, the Pirates
found themselves down 9-6 and
about to be handed their 18th loss
when Walker called time out to
regroup her team. .Alter the time-
out the Pirates went on a quick 3-
0 run and continued on to only
give up another three points and
winning the final match 15-12,
proving that although they are a
very young team, they have the
heart and the desire to the get
the job done when it counts.
"This was a rypical UNC-W
game. .After we lost those rwo
straight matches the girls fought
back hard Walker said. "I told
the women before the match it
would be a dog fight tonight, I'm
very proud of the way they played
tonight.
Not only was last Monday night
the Pirates third straight win, but
it was also the return of freshman
Liz Hall from a two week absence
with Mononucleosis. Hall
contributed with five kills, while
grabbing five digs and one block.
"With Liz Hall back in the
lineup that makes us all some
what healthy going into the end of
the season Walker said.
Last Monday's game also
assured ECU a tie for fifth place in
the CAA, meaning that they will
most likely play third-ranked
James Madison University in the
first round of the CAA tournament
November 21 at George Mason
University.
ECU's two remaining games
are at Campbell, Wednesday, Nov.
12, and at home Nov. 15 against
Wofford at 2 p.m. in Minges
Coliseum.

"It's always crazy when Larry
gets hurt and is out of the game. I
know I have to step up and do any
part I can, and that's what I have
to do this week Smith said.
Quarterback Dan Gonzalez
said personally he is comfortable
with whoever he has to throw to.
"I think whether or not it's
Troy and Larry playing the same
fssition, or just Troy or just Larry,
think both of those guys arc able
to step up their game and perform
for a full game if they need to
Gonzalez said. "I don't know if it
sets us back, obviously we are
losinga leader if he's not able to
play Thursday night, but I think
some other guys are ready to pick
up the slack and the leadership
and get some confidence in the

work on stopping the option,

"It's more assignment football,
so we can stick with our men, it
will be much easier than hitting

This year's opponents have
gained 1,576 rushing yards against
the Pirate defense with 15 rushing
touchdowns.
The is the home finale in the
seniors careers, with 11 seniors
playing in Dowdy-Rcklen for the
last time. Gonzalez knows the
emotions will be there, but they
still want to concentrate on
winning the game.
"It will be more a thing you
reflect on after the game is over
Gonzalez said. "I hope we go out
and really show what this senior
class has been about, which has
been a lot of hard work; a lot of
dedication they put into this
program. Hopefully we're able to
go out and show the kind of level

Do
for ECU
Or for a portable CD player, whichever floats your boat.
The administration Has said they're
looking for a new university sym-
bol, something other than PeeDee Pirate.
We at The East Carolinian would like to
help them in their deliberations.
Send us your idea, for a new ECU logo
before our Nov. IS deadline.
We'll pick our favorite and give that per-
son a portable CD player. Then we'll run
all of serious logos we receive in the Dec.
4 issue of the paper and on our website at
www.studentmedU.ecu.edu.
Here's your big chance to help the ECU
administration and show your school
spirit (or how badly you really want a
portable CD player).
Bring your entries to our offices in the
Student Publications Building.
