A lecturer in the Department of
Theater Arts was suspended
recently in the wake of account
irregularities following a routine
audit of the Theater Arts
Foundation.
Gary Faircloth, a lecturer in
Theatre Arts and theater manager,
was suspended after the audit
turned up irregularities consisting
of checks totaling approximately
$23,400, written over a 15-month
period from October 1996 until
January 1998.
"The funds were
managed by the theater
manager?Mr. Gary
Faircloth said Ben
Irons, university attor-
ney.
The Theatre Arts
Foundation is an inde-
pendent organization
dedicated to supporting
theater arts departmen-
tal operation and auxil-
iaries such as the sum-
mer theater. The foundation
account is subdivided into over a
dozen accounts, some of which
manage scholarship funds, depart-
mental discretionary funds, and
summer theater.

Local patrons' Pepsi

William LeLiever
staff writer
The Board of Trustees recently
voted to prepare a request for pro-
posal (RFP) to provide exclusive
pouring rights to certain companies.
This RFP is being used to solicit
bids from Coca-Cola USA and
Pepsi USA to see what ECU stands
to gain.
Pouring rights are exclusive
rights for a company to sell its prod-
uct at a certain location, indepen-
dent from its competitor.
According to Layton Getsinger,
associate vice chancellor for admin-

director of busi-

RFP is a com-

Technology is sweeping the nation
like a hurricane and ECU's Medical
School is joining in on the fervor.
On May 14 and 15, ECU'S
Medical School held a conference
on telehealth programs at the
Edwin W. Monroe Area Health
Education Center (AHEC)
Conference Center at 2000 Venture
Towers Drive.
Teleconferencing is a system
that links area schools so that they
can communicate over television
screens via satellites. The system
has been in use for years in the
business world, but hi recently
being applied toward the academic
world. The benefit of the system is
that it allows "face to face" interac-
tion, and more personal communi-
cation. Telehealth takes a new
approach to medical education in
that it makes medical education
and diagnosis boundless.

How could something as seemingly trivial as the cola wars affect ECU's financial status?
: The answer is simple: both Coca-Cola and Pepsi want our business exclusively.
' The companies are vying for exclusive rights to sell their products at our sporting events
and in our dining halls and vending machines.
This means that our beverage choices will soon be limited. But on the good side, we'll
J be rolling in the dough as both companies try to sway ECU's decision with financial gifts.
Unfortunately, Pepsi thinks that a good old-fashioned guilt trip may work better.
' Apparently the Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company of Greenville is owned by none other than
the generous Minges family. The philanthropic donations of Miles Minges, now deceased,
were so plentiful that Minges Coliseum was named after him.
; Now, banking on ECU's loyalty to the Minges family, Pepsi assumes that we will feel
obligated to accept Pepsi's advances over Coke's.
Miles's grandson Tom is distraught over the very idea that ECU may choose Coca-Cola
over Pepsi. He claimed that his father would turn over in his grave if Pepsi couldn't be pur-
" chased in the coliseum. What's next, a heartfelt plea from Max Headroom on behalf of
: Coca-Cola?
Tactics like this aren't fair. They put ECU in a bad position. We need the money, but
don't want to offend the Minges family.
But if the Minges family had given the money as they should have, out of the kindness
: of their hearts and love for education rather than the insured business of Pepsi, they should
rest assured that our loyalty to them will remain constant; it just may not extend to the fam-
ily's pet soda company.
All we at TEC really want is what's good for the campus and its programs. We want a high-
quality education, and we're reasonably sure that's what John Minges wanted, too. So par-
don us if we advocate selling out to the highest bidder. That's what business is all about.
Until the deal is made, however, we'll be content to toss back any fizzy brown beverage.
We don't really care who makes it, as long as it tastes good.
LETTER
to the editor
DeMarco wrongly dismissed
I would like to express my disbelief
over the firing of Sal DeMarco by
Chancellor Richard Eakin from
ECU for allegedly intimidating col-
leagues with threats and ridicule as
per the April 21 Daily Reflector. As a
tenured speechlanguage pathology
professor with a PhD and over 10
years of service at ECU. I would
think this department with a new
PhD program would like to draw
from the expertise that Dr.
DeMarco has to offer. This is espe-
cially true considering that the
majority of speech therapists do not
hold PhD's. This is a true embar-
rassment and setback to eastern
North Carolina, as we attempt to
attract more jobs and a higher stan-
dard of living for some, by proclaim-
ing to be progressive.
? As a speech therapist and tax-
: payer, I cannot believe the blatant
disregard for the decision of the
Due Process Hearing Committee.
This is frightening to me because it
seems to imply that there is an
infrastructure at ECU that does not
put professors first. They must be
;put before the administration for
new thought and discoveries to be
made. If not, this will mimic corpo-
rate America today where there is
very little free thought or speech.
The role of the administration is for
support and is not an entity of its
very own.
Dr. DeMarco has kept up with
what goes on in the field of speech
pathology outside the university. I
know because I have treated some
of the patients that he has and he is
quick to answer my phone calls.
This is untrue for many of the other
speech therapists in this depart-
ment. I suggest that we put every
speech therapist in this department.
I suggest that we put every speech
therapist in this department
through the scrutiny that Dr.
DeMarco has received. I doubt very
many of them would pass the test.
They need to be fired as well.
Dr. DeMarco has fought to keep
this department at least partially
clinically based. For this university
to truly serve this community, this
has to happen. Eastern North
Carolina is very underserved. When
speech deficits are not addressed,
children have difficulties in school
academically and socially. Dr.
DeMarco is aware of this and I have
a feeling that this is one reason he
wants to remain at least partially
clinical. I do not feel that the major-
ity of the speech therapists in this
department are even aware of this.
It takes a special person to be able
to do research and remain clinically
based. Does this sound like a per-
son our community needs to lose?
No.
Dr. DeMarco is also suffering
from Multiple Sclerosis. It is widely
known that stress exacerbates M.S.
I find this department's blatant lack
of understanding of this basic con-
cept to be unexcusable. I would
question these people's ability to
deal with any sort of disability.
I can only hope that this situa-
tion is brought to the attention of
the appropriate people. I will also
place this department in the light
and in my prayers

Union money should be controlled
want a say in how these
organizations spend their

my wishes and ask me if they
can spend my money on
campaign donations.
California voters have a choice
when they go to the polls on June
2. Aside from choosing, the
Governor and numerous other leg-
islative offices, the voters can vote
yea or nay on Proposition 266, a
proposal is designed to stop unions
from giving money to campaigns.
This proposition before
California voters will force unions
to, in effect, to stop giving money
to political campaigns. The new
law will require unions to get the
permission of their members
before sending money to cam-
paigns. The supposed reason
behind this law is some people fear
unions do not represent the views
of individual members.
Well guess what? Unions are not
supposed to represent the views of
individual members. The collec-
tive organizations, that unions are,
represent the members as a whole.
The groups lobby for and against
matters that will help their mem-

Those opposed to unions will

I will support this proposition if the
rules are extended to everybody

I have sent money to National
Public Radio, Public Broadcasting

Association, and quite a few others.
I want a say in how these organiza-
tions spend their money. As long as
I send them a few bucks they
should respect my wishes and ask
me if they can spend my money on
campaign donations.
The National Rifle Association,
the Heritage Foundation, and the
Republican party should be treated
the same as unions. Any money
they receive should not go to cam-
paign-related business unless the
members of the organization agree
on the matter. These organizations,
are not any different than Unions,
They have dues paying members

political purposes.

LETTERS
to the editor
Critic treated artist unfairly
I
I am writing in response to John
Davis' art review, "Graduate exhi-
bition largely a success" that ran on
Tuesday, May 5. Art students have
to learn to take constructive criti-
cism in stride ? but attacking
Kelly Sheppherd's work on a per-
sonal level is vastly inexcusable and
disturbingly unprofessional. Mr.
Davis states that Sheppard's exhib-
it only serves to . . draw more
attention to the fact that Sheppard
is overweight Davis even thought
it wise to include a comment some
mentally-challenged patron had
scribbled in the guest book about
Kelly needing to lose weight. I feel
that John Davis should reexamine
his article, hopefully with a more
discerning eye for the difference
between constructive criticism and
the unprofessional warblings of an
art rookie. I did notice that some jfi
the accompanying photos taken btSr
Davis had some clarity and cohe
sion of space and composition!
Perhaps The East Carolinian should
just let him be the photo boy.
Christina Stephens
BFA PaintingArt Education
I read the John Davis article on the
School of Art Graduate Exhibit in
the May 5 issue of The East
Carolinian and was angered by his
crude remarks on the body shape of
Kelly Sheppard. He transgressed
the true role of art critic by person-
ally attacking Ms. Sheppard. His
conduct was extremely unprofes-
sional and he slanders The East
Carolinian by his actions.
Amanda Proctor
Art Education
I would like to respond to John
Davis's article in the May 5 issue of
The East Carolinian, entitled
"Graduate exhibition largely a suc-
cess
Implicit in your focus on obesity
is a sexual prejudice, which you
assert as valid for all men: "the
average American man isn't attract-
ed to obesity I would have
thought that the average man,
American or otherwise, is attracted
to another person. Thank you for
correcting me. The average
American man is, then, attracted to
an image ? the current one in the
fashion magazines being an extra-
ordinarily skinny, adolescent girl
with broomstick hair, dressed in
lycra exercise clothes, a sort of
"neo-Twiggy" which seems to be
in line with a general nostalgia for
1950s life. Then, perhaps women
would prefer non-average, non-
American men.
Artists like Kelly Sheppard are
making serious attempts to create
works of art The least they can
expect from their reviewers is that
you make an equally serious
attempt to respond with intelli-
gence to what you see. Anything is
less than either conceptually lax or
intellectually self-indulgent An
informed response might not
express all those "existentialist
angst thingies but it would serve
your readers and the works of art
better.
Joyce Joines Newman
MFA Candidate, School of Art
In the article "Graduate exhibition
largely a success John Davis
describes Julie Spivey's work as
"centered around the theme of how
women fit into American culture
"How women fit into" presupposes
that culture exists separately from
woman, and so it seems, in the
mind of Davis, that men are the cul-
ture into which women must "fit"
It seems almost redundant to point
toward the obvious sexist descrip-
tions like elegant, gorgeous, subtle,
lovable, playfulness and compar-
isons to Toy Story in the context of
discussing these women artists'
work and at the same time dis-
cussing Mark Cooley's work in
terms of existential angst. The
depth of though and experience
Davis feels are in pretty much all
the works has been projected onto
the works by him (or more accu-
rately through him by a sexist soci-
ety) and insofar as his values are
shared by others, male and female,
change will not happen. That is a
problem that requires "a bunch of
complaining The terms that
Davis has laid out in his article, that
good feminist art must be done
"subtley with just a bit of tongue-
in-cheek humor" perdetermincs
that the subject, for him, deserves
no seriousness.

This giant Iguana bites
We tear Godzilla
a new one
2 OUT OF 10
Mark Brett
senior writer
Every once in a while, a movie
comes along that just hurts. I'll be
sitting there in the theater, munch-
ing my popcorn and sipping my
drink, and slowly but surely I'll feel
the pain. Something, be it bad act-
ing or a poor script or simple filmic
ineptitude, will work its way under
human condition, let's discuss the
action. Godzilla is a movie about a
big freaking lizard tearing up New
York. Knowing that, you can expect
a few things. You can expect build-
ings to collapse. They do. You can
expect lots of things blowing up.
They do.
But you can also expect to see a
lot of people get squashed by all the
big stuff crashing down around
them, and that doesn't happen once
in this film. That's right; there's a
giant monster stomping around
Manhattan, and not one pedestrian,
not one curious reporter, not one
hapless soldier gets stepped on.
The top of the Chrysler Building
tumbles to the street, and we actu-
ally see the entire platoon of army
Don't worry, pal. It's a PG-13 movie. You're perfectly fine.

my skin and I'll start to squirm.
Godzilla is such a film.
I shouldn't have been surprised.
The last movie to pain me as much
as this one was Independence Day,
which was also put together by the
Godzilla team of Dean Devlin and
Roland Emmerich. I thought I was
ready for the hurting. But I was
wrong. Oh, so wrong.
It's not that the movie is actively
bad; the special effects are quite
nice, and there are a few moments
that I was able to enjoy in some
reluctant, tainted manner. It's just
that it's so flat. Stuff that should
have been edge-of-your-seat excit-
ing was just kind of blandly inter-
esting. Stuff that should have been
interesting was simply boring. And
characters that we were supposed to
care about (I guess) never become
appealing enough for anybody to
give a rat's ass.
For a full two and one half hours
I was pinned under Godzilla's
mediocre thumb. Now it's my turn,
and I'm gonna rip that lizard a new
asshole.
First of all, to remove any doubt
that I expected this movie to be a
deep and serious exploration of the
guys standing underneath it leap
out of the way!
What were they thinking?
Godzilla fans want carnage, damn
it! We want to see innocent people
getting turned into puddles by the
big G! Sure, he chomps on a few
pursuit helicopters along the way,
and tries to eat a taxi containing our
heroes, but nobody gets stepped
on! In the name of not scaring the
kiddies (who looked bored during
the whole thing), and in the name
of getting that bloody PG-13 rating
that will allow those kiddies into
the theaters and then out to buy the
toys, everyone who's not safely hid-
den from our sight by a large metal
object scrapes by safely. Most of
them don't even get a scratch.
And I really wanted some of the
people in this movie to hurt While
Devlin and Emmerich leave a real-
ly interesting cast of scientists and
Army command to languish in brief
cutaway scenes, we're forced to
watch the antics of Matthew
Broderick and his ex-girlfriend's
gaggle of reporter pals. These are
supposed to be the normal folks
moviegoers can identify with, but in
reality they and their petty lives are
i
just an annoying distraction from
what's going on with the monster.
Not that the story surrounding
Godzilla himself is all that interest-
ing, cither. Despite the hype,
Godzilla is not a remake of Godzilla.
It's actually a remake of the
American film The Beast From
20,000 Fathoms, with some plot ele-
ments from the Japanese Rodan
thrown in for good measure. So
Godzilla is atomically-created, but
not atomically powered; no nuclear
breath for this monster. He wreaks
havoc in New York, not Tokyo.
And, like Rodan, he's there because
of some monster eggs he has to take
'Ahhhl I'm in a really had movie

care of.
And, in one of the strangest
pieces of plot noodling I've come
across in a long time, he's created
not by American or Japanese
nuclear testing, but in fact by bomb
tests conducted by the French.
That's right, the French, a people
well-known for their warmongering
nuclear arsenal.
Again, I can only wonder what
the filmmakers were thinking here.
The French angle does give them
an excuse to use super-cool French
actor Jean Reno (The Professional),
and he is the one bright spot in the
film, but I still can't figure it.
Since the film lacks even the.
smallest moral recriminations for
Godzilla's creation, I can only
assume they figured that nobody
could get mad at the French. I
mean, they're the French after all.
They've got such wonderful chefs.
How can we hate them for creating
a monster that destroys New York
and whose very existence threatens
all life on Earth? You wouldn't want
to get too heavy.
Which brings me to another big
problem with Godzilla. There is no
message inherent in the film. You'd

Tori's latest offering, a liquid and

as a freaky girl but a wonderful

With its careful blend of tracks
from the tender yet mundane to
the frenzied divine, Songs proves as
unforgettable and inspired as Tori
herself.
Once again, she blows away the
competition. This time she sends
sprawling the likes of Paula Cole
and Meredith Brooks, those cheap
inventions of a music industry sud-
denly obsessed with female song-

This giant Iguana bites
We tear Godzilla
a new one
2 OUT OF 10
Mark Brett
senior writer
Every once in a while, a movie
comes along that just hurts. I'll be
sitting there in the theater, munch-
ing my popcorn and sipping my
drink, and slowly but surely I'll feel
the pain. Something, be it bad act-
ing or a poor script or simple filmic
ineptitude, will work its way under
human condition, let's discuss the
action. Godzilla is a movie about a
big freaking lizard tearing up New
York. Knowing that, you can expect
a few things. You can expect build-
ings to collapse. They do. You can
expect lots of things blowing up.
They do.
But you can also expect to see a
lot of people get squashed by all the
big stuff crashing down around
them, and that doesn't happen once
in this film. That's right; there's a
giant monster stomping around
Manhattan, and not one pedestrian,
not one curious reporter, not one
hapless soldier gets stepped on.
The top of the Chrysler Building
tumbles to the street, and we actu-
ally see the entire platoon of army
Don't worry, pal. It's a PG 13 movie. You're perfectly fins.

my skin and I'll start to squirm.
Godzilla is such a film.
I shouldn't have been surprised.
The last movie to pain me as much
as this one was Independence Day,
which was also put together by the
Godzilla team of Dean Devlin and
Roland Emmerich. I thought I was
ready for the hurting. But I was
wrong. Oh, so wrong.
It's not that the movie is actively
bad; the special effects are quite
nice, and there are a few moments
that I was able to enjoy in some
reluctant, tainted manner. It's just
that it's so flat Stuff that should
have been edge-of-your-seat excit-
ing was just kind of blandly inter-
esting. Stuff that should have been
interesting was simply boring. And
characters that we were supposed to
care about (I guess) never become
appealing enough for anybody to
give a rat's ass.
For a full two and one half hours
I was pinned under Godzilla's
mediocre thumb. Now it's my turn,
and I'm gonna rip that lizard a new
asshole.
First of all, to remove any doubt
that I expected this movie to be a
deep and serious exploration of the
guys standing underneath it leap
out of the way!
What were they thinking?
Godzilla fans want carnage, damn
it! We want to see innocent people
getting turned into puddles by the
big G! Sure, he chomps on a few
pursuit helicopters along the way,
and tries to cat a taxi containing our
heroes, but nobody gets stepped
on! In the name of not scaring the
kiddies (who looked bored during
the whole thing), and in the name
of getting that bloody PG-13 rating
that will allow those kiddies into
the theaters and then out to buy the
toys, everyone who's not safely hid-
den from our sight by a large metal
object scrapes by safely. Most of
them don't even get a scratch.
And I really wanted some of the
people in this movie to hurt. While
Devlin and Emmerich leave a real-
ly interesting cast of scientists and
Army command to languish in brief
cutaway scenes, we're forced to
watch the antics of Matthew
Broderick and his ex-girlfriend's
gaggle of reporter pals. These are
supposed to be the normal folks
moviegoers can identify with, but in
reality they and their petty lives are
I
just an annoying distraction from
what's going on with the monster.
Not that the story surrounding
Godzilla himself is all that interest-
ing, either. Despite the hype,
Godzilla is not a remake of Godzilla.
It's actually a remake of the
American film The Beast From
20,000 Fathoms, with some plot ele-
ments from the Japanese Rodan
thrown in for good measure. So
Godzilla is atomically-created, but
not atomically powered; no nuclear
breath for this monster. He wreaks
havoc in New York, not Tokyo.
And, like Rodan, he's there because
of some monster eggs he has to take
"Ahhht I'm in a realty bad movie

care of.
And, in one of the strangest
pieces of plot noodling I've come
across in a long time, he's created
not by American or Japanese
nuclear testing, but in fact by bomb
tests conducted by the French.
That's right, the French, a people
well-known for their warmongering
nuclear arsenal.
Again, I can only wonder what
the filmmakers were thinking here.
The French angle does give them
an excuse to use super-cool French
actor Jean Reno The Professional),
and he is the one bright spot in the
film, but I still can't figure it.
Since the film lacks even the
smallest moral recriminations tor
Godzilla's creation, I can only
assume they figured that nobody
could get mad at the French. I
mean, they're the French after all.
They've got such wonderful chefs.
How can we hate them for creating
a monster that destroys New York
and whose very existence threatens
all life on Earth? You wouldn't want
to get too heavy.
Which brings me to another big
problem with Godzilla. There is no
message inherent in the film. You'd

Allison's voice is a very severe,
very nasal (but good) twang that
makes Old Dreams all the more
engaging. Her voice is at its best on
songs like "Don't Go Downtown"
and "This Misery where she
pines for her sweetheart, "Tell him
that I miss him and send my best
wishesTell him that I'm sorry but
I've broken all the dishes A bro-
ken heart and broken china kicks
your ass every time.
Hedgecock gets the spotlight on
"The Pain I'm In a haunting
lament that Hedgecock gets right
with desperate, tearful vocals that
convey the confusion the song
expresses: "Sweet the hour was,
when I heard him saycome and
take my hand, but he just fades
awayI find myself alone in my
darkest hourMy soul's in need of
faith and God's the only power
"House of Flesh and Bone" is
good and eerie with lyrics like "The
night dropped in, the unwelcome
guestIt was in that tree that I
prayed for death
Both Allison and Hedgecock are
fine songwriters, but the band
offers interesting takes on other
people's songs as well. The album
begins with the Tom Petty-penned
"Turning Point which Parlor
James rave and funk up with inter-
esting results. Even more interest-
ing is the group's take on the tradi-
tional ballad "Clementine" that
manages to get across the horrible
death that the song tells the story
of.
Old Dreams explores the incredi-
ble possibilities of music. It's excit-

music that deserves to be checked

Tori
continued from page 5
Amos was there first.
The album opens forcefully
enough; "Spark the epic first
track, runs on the bitter fuel of
doubt from its restrained opening
through the symphonic chorus.
Hints of personal pain, such as the
loss of her unborn child, spike the
song with real grief.
"Cruel" follows with a unique
and mysterious drumbeat. The
melody is a bit more commonplace
than usual for Tori, but this track
accentuates her breathing, making
the presentation far more personal
than the prepackaged tunes of
other artists.
What is there to say about
"Black-Dove?" The trickling piano
of songs from bygone albums
("Bells for Her "Icicle
"Horses") rebirths itself here in this
mossy confection, leading into a
bridge that echoes the best tracks
from Little Earthquakes. This track
begs for the repeat button.
One of the album's best surpris-
es is "Raspberry Swirl in which
she achieves a blend of pounding
piano, drums and techno gadgetry
that makes this a truly fresh and
diggable track. Her ingenuity and
artistry are apdy demonstrated with
this one, which may draw the ears
of some fans other than the patouli-
drenched, long-skirted, cat-loving
women who make up her core audi-
ence.
"Jackie's Strength" opens with a
pseudo-sensitive Richard Marx
sound, but quickly evolves into a
chilly, violin-laced Century-21 ad
for a house that's been haunted for
a long time, gardens and all. There
are skeletons in all of these closets,
and Tori flings the doors wide with
her peculiar brand of sardonic
amusement.
"She's Your Cocaine" is another
full-band undertaking, with heavy
drums, distorted guitars and the
like. Pleasant interludes of piano
and voice are pumped directly from
Tori's heart and mind, but the PJ
Harvey-inspired barrage of plead-
ings, gaspings and chokings nearly
to death at the end are strictly from
the gut. "Cut it again she says.
But I'm glad she didn't.
The heavy and amorphous
"Hotel drenched in electronica
and stumbling in slowfast-motion
toward a quiet resolution, is never
boring. "Give me more Tori
implores over a thick infusion of
synthetic sound layers. Drum-and-
bass rhythms grudgingly trade
places with old Depeche Mode-
style keyboard melodies that some-
how recall David Bowie's Low
album. The track winds down to a
bare organ solo which sounds stuffy
and British but still lends it a partic-
ular charm.
The boring "Playboy Mommy"
has neither hook nor lyrical beauty
to give it appeal, and the album
closes with Pandora's Aquarium,
which is just, er, weird. So, the
album comes in like a lion and goes
out like a lamb. Tori's still got more
talent in her little finger than all the
tepid Lilith Fair chicks put togeth-
er.
Buy this album. Buy it 'cause
you love Tori. Heck, buy it for the
cover art. The stunning full-length
photos of Tori, pencil in hand and
impish smirk on lips, will make
your hair stand on end. Not to men-
tion the music.
figure, with a nuclear-mutated
monster running amok, they might
have given up a few seconds of its
bloated running time for somebody
to say something about the mad-
ness of war. Or, if that's too cliche
for you, maybe they could make
some kind of point about animal
rights, or pollution or something.
But no. It's just a big splashy sum-
mer action film with shallow char-
acters, no plot and no ambitions
beyond being a thrill ride.
Now, there's not necessarily
anything wrong with that. The
Indiana Jones films are little more
than thrill rides, and I love those.
But Godzilla fails at even giving its
audience the basic action-oriented
thrills it claims to offer. Devlin and

Baseball season ends with disapp
Team finishes with
29-21 record after
CAA tournament
Tracy Hairr
ASSISTANT SPOUTS EDITOR
The baseball team wrapped up
their season by competing in the
Colonial Athletic Association
Tournament May 12.
The Pirates entered the
tournament against the fifth-
seeded Old Dominion Monarchs.
After seven consecutive wins, the
team held high hopes about
continuing their progress. Junior
third baseman Jason Howard felt
especially good about the
prospects of the tournament.
"We had such high
expectations because we'd been
playing a lot better toward the end
of the year Howard said.
Struggling a bit at the plate this
year, Howard's batting average
increased by 28 points during the
last games of the season; his RBI
total was at 42, putting him in
Jason Colquitt
third place for the team all year.
With such accomplishments at
stake and
the whole
team's
improving
record, it was
no surprise
when ECU
moved into
t h e
tournament
and captured
a win against
t h e
Monarchs.
However, "am"a
according to
senior Jason Colquitt, a starter for
the team, the losses that ended
the tournament were due to the
team's lack of precision in certain
areas. ,
"We started out real well with
Old Dominion, then ended up
getting beat Colquitt said. "I
think the team could really have
improved their pitching skills.
Usually our records show that if
our pitching's on, we're on. If it's
off, so are we
Whether or not the pitching
benefited the team is not the only
idea in question though.

tournament

Howard said.
"In fact, I
think we

Through
the CAA, the Pirates ended their
year with a 29-27 record that has
seen 21 wins here at Harrington
Field.
ECU's baseball team made
dramatic improvements this year
with individual players breaking
records such as saves and
strikeouts per season, but every
win or loss often seemed directly
affected by the surrounding
circumstances rather than the
team's performance.
"Overall I think we had a good
team Colquitt said. "We played
real good offensively, and
occasionally defensively too. But
it always depended on who we
were playing. So for most of us it

SPOUTS EDITOn
ECU junior third baseman
Isonette Polonius has been
named a 1998 Louisville slugger
second team Ail-American.
Polonius became the Pirates'
first ever Ail-American selection
since ECU started playing
fastpitch softball in 1984.
Polonius led the Big South
Conference in batting average,
home runs, RBIs, hits and runs.
She was selected as the Big South
Most Valuable Player as well as
the league's Scholar-Athlete of the
Year.
Polonius finished the season
with a 25-game hitting streak. Her
.476 batting average ranked fifth
in the nation. Her home run and
RBI totals also ranked nationally.
Head Coach Tracy Kce said
that Polonius is an all-around asset
to the Pirate softball program.
"At this point she has been

Polonius was denied first team

Kce said that even though a

tremendous honor and should

Moore says leave will

Tracy Hairr
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
After directing the tennis program
for almost 10 years and teaching
sports psychology as a faculty
member, Bill Moore resigned his
position with the ECU Pirates.
He has accepted an
administrative position at Pfeiffer
University, his alma mater, in the
school of business.
' Before joining the ECU staff,
Moore was an assistant coach at
Virginia from 1982-86 and a head
coach at East
Sroudsburg
University
from 1987-
88.
Moore's stint
at ECU
began in
1989 when
he took
control of the
Pirate tennis
program.
Both the
men's and women's teams have
been led by Moore and have
achieved records of 101-125 and
94-69 respectively. Also under
Moore's direction, the ECU men
captured third place in the
Colonial Athletic Association
" think it's a more solid
move professionally. My
responsibilities will officially
end here after the first
summer session, and then my
career will really change
completely. But it should all
be for the best since I've been

standings (1992, 93, 94). In the
same conference, the women
finished fourth in 1990 and 1991
and placed fifth in the CAA this
year.
Considering such
accomplishments, Moore's
resignation has certainly been
surprising and raised numerous
questions concerning his leaving.
Moore has made visits related
to academics to Wilmington,
N.C and one may arise as far as
Finland, but Moore said leaving
ECU simply will provide more
business opportunities.
"I think it's a more solid move
professionally Moore said. "My
responsibilities will officially end
here after the first summer
session, and then my career will
really change completely. But it
should all be for the best since
I've been looking for a chance to
move on
Regardless of the reasons that
surround Moore's leaving the
Pirates, there is nonetheless a
position here as head coach that
needs to be filled. Norm Reilly,
assistant athletics director in
sports information, along with
others of the Athletics staff are
currently awaiting prospective
applicants to take over the ECU
tennis teams.
"The process is ongoing, but
early in its stages Reilly said.
"We've advertised the position
and probably will through the first
week of June. Then we can
probably screen it down by mid
June and by the end of the month
I'm sure we'll have a good idea
about what will happen.

STAFF REPORTS
East Carolina University
Chancellor Dr. Richard Eakin has
reccommendcd, and the Board of
Trustees approved, a contract
extension for Athletic Director
Mike Hamrick.
The contract of Hamrick, who
is beginning his fourth year at the
helm of the East Carolina
athletics program, was extended
one year through May 31, 2002.
Hamrick has served as athletics
director at ECU since April of
1995.
Among the accomplishments
of the athletics program under
Hamrick's direction have been
the Pirates' admission into
Conference USA as a football-
playing member. The ECU
football schedule has also
dramatically improved in recent
years under Hamrick, including
upcoming home-and-home series
with all four in-state ACC
institutions: North Carolina, NC
State, Duke and Wake Forest.
In addition, Pirate football
season ticket sales have doubled
in the past three years with
contributions to the ECU
Educational Foundation (Pirate
Club) also rising. Television
exposure for ECU football and
basketball have also increased
tremendously. Ten of 11 Pirate
football games in 1997 were
televised on either ESPN, FOX
Sports South or the Pirates Sports
TV Network.
Prior to being named AD at
East Carolina in 1995, Hamrick
held the Director of Athletics
position at the University of
Arkansas-Little rock from 1990-
95.
