Pitt County is seeking damages
from the insurance company of an
ECU student to cover the cost of
damages incurred to a Pitt County
Sheriffs Department vehicle dur-
ing a traffic accident last year.
On October 2, 1997, Lt. Ronald
Wayne Smith pulled left out of the
Krispy Kreme onto East 10th
Street. According to witnesses, he
then cut to the left around traffic

Cotanche Street and 10th with all
emergency lights activated and
slowly proceeded ahead when his
vehicle collided with the vehicle
of East Carolina University stu
dent Valerie Springle.
In the accident report, Smith
maintained that he sounded the
air horn while he was stopped. As
he passed through the intersec-
tion he was struck by Springle, 23.
Springle stated in the accident
report that she did not see
Smith's car until just before the
crash.
Smith was transported to Pitt
County Memorial and treated for
swelling dnd bruising, then
released. Springle and three of the
four passengers in her vehicle com-
plained of minor injuries but did
not seek medical attention.
"The police.re.portand
investigation does find that
she (Springle) is at fault.
We are seeking through her
insurance company damages

Janis Gallagher

Springle was charged with fail-
ure to stop for police. Under
General Statute 20-157 emergency
and police vehicles are permitted
to pass through red lights and stop
signs provided that they exercise
due caution.
In August, Pitt County filed suit
against Springle for failing to keep
a proper lookout and yield the right
of way.
"We have filed suit against
her said Janis Gallagher, staff
attorney for Pitt County. "The
police report and investigation
does find that she (Springle) is at
fault. We are seeking through her
insurance company damages to the
sheriffs vehicle
"I am not able to answer any
questions at this time, until I
review the case said Jerry Allan,
Springle's lawyer, of Walker,
Barwick, Clark, and Allan of
Goldsboro, NC.
Messages left at Springle's

The ECU Survey Research Lab
and the Greenville Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO) will
be distributing travel surveys to
study the traffic patterns in
Greenville, Winterville, and the
surrounding areas.
The information will be used to
assist in future construction of roads
and neighborhoods to improve the
traffic in Greenville.
"The survey is designed to allow
the Greenville metropolitan area to
better plan for traffic so we can
avoid traffic problems said Ken
Wilson, director of the Survey
Research Lab.
The survey will also study how
growth and development affect
traffic.
The Survey Research Lab will
be sending out letters to 2,000 ran-
dom households in the Greenville
metropolitan area explaining what
the survey will be and what they
hope to learn. Each household will
then receive a phone call to find out
basic information, such as size of
the family and number of cars. The
surveys will be completely anony-
mous. Each household will be
assigned a coded identification
number.
The households will then
receive a travel diary, which they
will use to record their travels for
one single day. The surveys will be
spread over 42 different days.
"We will get an idea of the trips
people make said Ron
Svejkovsky, Transportation
Planner for the MPO.
The Survey Research Lab is
attempting to include all demo-
graphics in this survey. College stu-
dents will be represented in the
survey, with one exception. Their
surveys will only cover off campus
travel.
"There are different types of
trips for different people
Svejkovsky said. "We will study
college students, poor people, mid-
dle-class people, and rich people
Svejkovsky said that they will be
studying the percentage of people
who make crosstown trips and how
long those trips are.
The information will be com-
pletely gathered by Thanksgiving.
The Survey Research Lab will do
the preliminary analysis and then
let the MPO take over the final
analysis.
The finalized data will be incor-
porated into the city's planning
within a month.
"It will go into the planning
process by January I Wilson said.
Wilson mentioned that there is
now a generic national model of
traffic flow used by North Carolina,
but this would provide a much
more accurate and reliable basis to
plan future developments.
'This is the first time this has
been done east of 1-95 said

Oklahoma State includes
activities on transcript
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP)
Oklahoma State University senior
Mahlon Hunt is just as proud of
serving as president of the student
union activities board as he is of his
3.46 grade point average.
Thanks to OSU's new student
activity transcripts, Hunt will be
able to showcase his extracurricular
activities for prospective employers
and demonstrate that he did more
at school than study.
"Employers might take a 3.0
student who has been involved in
many activities, clubs and leader-
ship roles over a 4.0 student who
did nothing said Kent Sampson,
OSU's director of campus life.
The student activity transcripts
similar to those used at
the University of Nebraska
complement a student's academic
transcript and resume while high-
lighting participation in campus
organizations and community ser-
vice projects.
"These transcripts can acknowl-
edge and reinforce the hours of ser-
vice and leadership that a student
puts in over four or five years
Sampson said.
"The transcript reflects the fact
that the whole student is being
developed at OSU, not just acade-
mics graduate student Vernccia
Harlien said.
"Employers like the idea,
because it shows more about the
student than just the standard aca-
demic transcript
The activity transcript "is a
stamp of approval from the univer-
sity, focusing on the differences
that students can make outside of
the classroom said Hunt, 22, an
agricultural communications major
from Chickasha. v
"OSU really gives students the
opportunities for leadership and
service Hunt said.
Sampson said students request-
ed the activity transcripts, which
are on parchment paper with the
official OSU seal. About 2,000
OSU students are expected to get
activity transcripts this year.
Students can apply for student
activity transcripts and use univer-

Jones lawyers dispute
claim of "bogus" lawsuit
WASHINGTON (AP) ? Paula
Jones' lawyers on Tuesday disput-
ed President Clinton's assertion
that her lawsuit was "bogus call-
ing the statement an effort to
"rationalize his inexcusable behav-
ior
Donovan Campbell, one of the
lawyers, also scoffed at Clinton's
explanation for denying "sexual
relations" with Monica Lewinsky.
"Apparently, Mr. Clinton, a
trained lawyer and past law profes-
sor, is one of the few human beings
in this country incapable of under-
standing the definition of sexual
relations Campbell said in a
statement. "Criminal defendants
are sent to jail every week in this
country based on that definition
which came directly from the
United States criminal code,
Campbell said.
Clinton made his comments
Aug. 17 to a grand jury. A video-
tape of the testimony was aired
nationwide on Monday. In those
comments, Clinton accused Mrs.
Jones lawyers of trying to set him up
"I deplored what they were
doing Clinton said. "I deplored
the innocent people they were ter-
rorizing and traumatizing. This
was a bogus lawsuit
Campbell responded, "We
believe that Mr. Clinton made
his attacks to rationalize his
inexcusable behavior
Mrs. Jones, a former Arkansas
state employee, has alleged that
then-Gov. Clinton propositioned
her in a Little Rock hotel room in
1991. She filed a sexual harassment
lawsuit against Clinton in 1994.
The case was dismissed earlier this
year, but not before allegations that
Clinton lied in the lawsuit and
tried to urge Ms. Lewinsky to lie
reached Independent Counsel
Kenneth Starr and prompted a full
criminal inquiry.
Clinton also said that his testi-
mony in the Jones case was truth-
ful, but that he was not forthcom-
ing with information that the Jones
team could use against him.
Campbell said Clinton's testi-
mony was not lawyerly handiwork,
but rather full of falsehoods.
"He did not artfully dodge inex-
act questions Campbell said.
"He falsely responded to precise
inquiries
Campbell also defended the
legitimacy of his client's case, say-
ing it is on appeal and was not dis-
missed because of any lack of evi-
dence against Clinton.
"The trial court assumed the
truth of Mrs. Jones' account, and
then ruled that what Mr. Clinton
did was not 'severe' or
"outrageous Campbell said.

For most of us, college is a time for -finding out what life is about. Many people come to
school and quickly discover that watching TV and drinking beer leave them feeling
emotionally empty.
Everybody has different ways of dealing with that feeling. Some pour themselves into their
studies to the point of neglecting all other parts of their lives. Others drown themselves with
alcohol in clubs downtown. Quite often, people find themselves feeling just as empty as they
did before.
A few students, however, find more fulfilling ways to spend their college days. They use
their free time to volunteer for organizations around Greenville.
Most volunteer organizations are in dire need of people willing to donate a small bit of time
to help other people. They provide necessary functions for people who sometimes can't afford
them. Volunteers do things such as set up blood drives, raise money for charitable
organizations, and educate people.
Many feel that they don't have enough time to give to volunteer organizations. Actually,
most charities will take whatever time a person has available to give. Many work as little as one
or two hours a week. That may not sound like a lot, but that little chunk of time can help
change a person's life.
By volunteering one's time, a student can gain valuable experience that will help after
graduation. Volunteers learn how to work well with other people and develop their
communication skills. It also provides excellent material for resumes. Many employers will
take another look at people who take time out of their busy schedule to assist the less
fortunate.
We at TEC feel that by helping other people, people not only work to improve the lives of
others, but actually help themselves too. The knowledge that the community is a little bit
better because of one persons work helps that person get a little more rest at night.

Waitresses get tired of Ramen too
Upon selecting a restaurant,
little Billy Beer Belly will
first muddle through the
barrage of phone numbers,
parking tickets, and angry
letters from Columbia House
stuffed in his wallet to see how
much actual cash is
contained within.
Ahhh, college life- the bane of
healthy eating habits. Take a quick
glance through your fridge. What
do you see? Probably four beers, a
jar of mustard, and a carton of milk
that just celebrated it's first
birthday. Open up the cabinet. It
most likely contains a case of
Ramen noodles, two bowls and a
coffee cup ewww, don't look too
closely at the coffee cup.
Ok, so where are you going to
get that life sustaining nourishment
that your body requires?
Apparently not at your house, and
I'd advise against sneaking into
your neighbor's pad to borrow grub.
Trust me, it's just a bad idea.
So the average college student
of medium intelligence chooses eat
out. I do it almost daily, but that
stems from my incapacitating fear
of grocery stores and dishwashers,
so perhaps I am not a good
example. We will instead use the
typical drooling college stereotype
that we all know and love.
Upon selecting a restaurant,
little Billy Beer Belly will first
muddle through the barrage of
phone numbers, parking tickets,
and angry letters from Columbia
House stuffed in his wallet to see
how much actual cash is contained
within. This will be the deciding
factor between I HOP, Waffle
House, or the alley behind the Elbo
as his eatery of choice.
If he comes up with eight dollars
and change and knows from his
photographic memory of menus
that the Country Fried Steak and
Kggs at HOP is'$7.39, should Billy
eat at IIIOP? No, my friends. Billy
should carry his broke ass to the
Waffle House, where country fried
steak and eggs is $5.99, and he can
leave Flo a two dollar tip.
However, this logic does not
normally apply. Waiters don't like
us. They see us coming and hide.
We are usually drunk anytime after
dark, and broke anytime after the
student loan money runs out
(usually the week after it's
received.) We make a mess and
don't give them any money to clean
it up. What bastards!
This results in a generalization
of all college students. I have held
at least half a dozen jobs in food
service, and granted, I know that
college kids can leave you butt
loads of money. But mostly they
don't.
Waiters aren't there because
they really, really love slinging hash
and cleaning up after nasty little
kids. This is not their career of
choice. They are most likely
working their way through school,
or working part time somewhere
else, or trying to move on to
something better. And they don't
really like you at all. They just
smile so you'll leave the dollars.
Can you imagine being in a
profession that requires you to suck
up to people, heed their every call,
submit to their every whim, just for
your daily bread? It sucks. And the
saddest part is that it is terribly hard
to find a job where you can make as
much money in as short a time as
waiting tables. That is not counting
that fat $2.15 an hour you're raking
in.
So humor them. Leave the
dollars. They need them just as
badly as you needed that chili
cheeseburger that they so lovingly
brought to your table, without
dropping it, and then went back to
get you ketchup for your fries, and
then went back to get you some
more Dr. Pepper, and then went
back to get you some mayo,
because you are so freaking hard to
satisfy. If you can't afford to leave a
tip, then for god's sake stay home,
wash your coffee cup, and make
some Ramen noodles.
Or at least hope that I'm not
your waiter.

Don't take loved ones for granted
By the time I hung up, my
face was virtually streaked
with tears, and I was greeted
by the loving arms of my
girlfriend. A select few
moments ran through my
mind as I lay there holding
back the tears that make me
feel like less of a man.
How can things happen the way
they do? lust this morning, I woke
up so that I could go see my
girlfriend sing at church, and
everything was cool. Afterwards,
she and I came back to my room to
watch a movie and, once again,
everything was cool. Then, I
called my mom to wish her a happy
birthday (it being her birthday and
all), and she proceeds to tell me
what she got with the money my
brother and I gave her, and as
usual, everything was cool.
But then she tells me that my
Great Aunt Louise passed away on
Saturday. After that, everything
she said was blocked out by my
thoughts. I somehow got through
the conversation and ended it with
my most sincere "Happy Birthday"
message, but all I could think
about was the news of my aunt.
This woman was wonderful.
Every time I saw her, she was in a
good mood. She always had a kind
word.
By the time I hung up, my face
was virtually streaked with tears,
and I was greeted by the loving
arms of my girlfriend. A select few
moments ran through my mind as I
lay there holding back the tears
that make me feel like less of a
man. I remembered the
Thanksgiving at the Holiday Inn
in Roanoke Rapids, and Christmas
at my cousins, and the time she,
my mother, my grandmother, and I
went to see my cousin in a musical.
It was only a few months ago, and
it is just so strange to believe that
its all over now.
The thing that makes me feel
bad is the fact that she had been in
the hospital right here in
Greenville, and I had never gotten
up there to see her. That brings
me to the actual opinion pan of my
opinion column.
We seem to have too much
going on nowadays. Not all, but a
lot of us, have come to college and
all but abandoned our life back
home. All we have to keep us
informed are letters and the
occasional phone call. We come to
ECU feeling like we are in the real
world, and sometimes we forget
that there's a real world back home,
too. If someone you care about is
sick or ill, you should take that
time to go see him or her. People
need other people to survive. We
cant afford to get so caught up with
our own deadlines that we forget
about the people that helped us
along the way.
I have to live with the fact that
my aunt may have died not
knowing that I cared about her, and
its too late to change it. Well, its
not too late to start thinking about
others. If you care about someonjji
and they don't know about it, tawr!
them aside one day and just tefl-
them. Tomorrow may be too late.
Id be willing to bet that someone
wishes they had confessed
something to the two teenage boys-
that were killed in an automobile
accident in Wilson last Friday.
Maybe some day, when my time
is up, I will be able to tell her how
I feel. Until then, I can just take a
few minutes every now and again
and pray. I can tell God, just as 1
told you, what a wonderful woman
He is getting. I keep thinking
about her when I am not occupied
with something. I can feel the
tears welling up as I type. Regret

hardly read the screen.
For Louise Threewitts: Rest in

Women, look out for each other
The thing that troubles me the
most about sexual assault
and rape is that the young
woman is somebody's
daughter. Some loving fathers
little girl. Somebody's fiance
or girlfriend. And for many
of us, it could be our sister.
I, first, and foremost, would like to
apologize on the behalf of all the
gentlemen at ECU for whatever
poor excuse of a "man" that
committed the rape at Garrett Hall
this past Sunday. Out of all crimes
that are be committed, I feel that
rape and sexual assault are the
most detestable, and would very
much like to see the criminal be
punished in a very inhumane
fashion, such as a nice public
flogging, or the removal of several
fingers with a nice dull, rusty
kitchen knife. i
The thing that troubles me the
most about sexual assault and rape
is that the young woman is
somebody's daughter. Some loving
father's little girl. Somebody's
fiance or girlfriend. And for many
of us, it could be our sister.
I care for my little sister Lauren
more than anything in the world.
She wants to grow up and be like
me, and come to ECU in two more
years. With all the recent assaults
on women in the dorms in the past
year, I don't think that I can, in
good conscience, recommend
campus living to her. The same
brochure that is sent out to all
students each year that exonerates
the environment of diversity of
dorm living tells nothing of the
closeted thieves, vandals, violent
drunks and sexual offenders that
could live just a floor above or
below her. And if anything
happened to her, don't think that I
wouldn't be above getting
extremely violent with the
accused. I like what Duke
University is doing. They have a
special building, open 24 hours a
day for women to call or go to if
they need an escort, a place to
sleep, or a place to sober up. But
since we don't have it yet at ECU,
I can only recommend that you
ladies follow a couple of guidelines
to keep yourself safe. Don't play
drinking games. But if you must,
make sure it's with people you
trust. Many guys can drink twice
the amount of alcohol as you, and
still only have a mild buzz. Also, go
to parties with a couple of your
friends. That's why I admire
sororities so much. The ladies
always look out for one another.
Finally, don't be afraid to have guy
friends. Men, by nature, are not
bad. There's just that small
percentage of idiots that would do
a great service to humanity by
removing themselves from the
gene pool.

Today's world has become a cultural
melting pot. In America, English is quickly
becoming a second language and many jobs
are moving more towards multi-lingual
employees.
"We are far behind other countries in
language development said French pro-
fessor Martin Schwarz. "One reason is
demographics and another is that for years,
the United States was an isolationist. Today
in our global village, companies look more
for multi-lingual people
Demographics are a big disadvantage for
language development in America.
Europeans have a distinct advantage in that
in a few minutes, they can go to a country
where they will be totally immersed in
another language.
"Total immersion is the best way to learn
a new language said Spanish professor
Heiga Hill. "My son spent four semesters in
college taking German, but didn't become
fluent until he went to Germany with the
ISEP program
Though immersion in a language is a fac-
tor, age is yet another problem that may
impede the learning process.
"To truly master a language, you should
start before the age of ten Schwarz said.
"It is around this age that the vocal cord sets
and once it sets you will probably have an
accent in any language that you learn
Hill believes that in America we wait to
long to begin teaching a foreign language.
"In America we start to teach a language
way too late Hill said. "European and
Asian schools start children in languages
while they're still in elementary school
During the early stage of development a
child is able to learn more than one lan-
guage at a much faster rate.
"Students at the college age can still
learn languages, but they need to study
harder Hill said.
Both Hill and Schwarz agree that learn-
ing a foreign language is essential to have a
liberal arts education,

And you think you have it tough.
Imagine what it's like dealing with
a career, paying the bills, managing
a family and on top of that, going to
college. That is exactly what 2800
adult students are having to do at
ECU this year.
These students often have dif-
ferent needs than their younger
counterparts. Forget about "Back
to School" starring Rodney
Dangerfield, adults going to college
for the first or second time
have quite a balancing act to per-
form. The ECU Adult Student
Service Center tries to make that
transition easy.
"We try to get the necessary
information out to them
said Shelly Myers, director of
Adult Services.
Currently Adult Services is in a
period of adjustment. Myers, who
has been the director for a few
weeks, still feels that they can
address any troubles that the adult
student has.
From information on support
groups to child care, to places
where the students can meet with
fellow adults, the service center is
there for those who need it.
"One concern that is prevalent
is the need to meet with students
their own age Myers said.
"Usually Mendenhall Student
Center is a great place to meet fel-
low adult students. There is the
Adult Student Association on
campus which is a great organiza-
tion out there
There arc certain conceptions
held about adult students. For
instance, it is thought that they

House moms create home away from home
Acting as surrogate

Nina M. Drv
SENIOR WRITE
Sorority members get the best of
both worlds; the independence that
all students strive for when they
leave home to attend college, and
the cozy atmosphere mothers have
somehow teamed to create and per-
fect for any situation. Sororities
have house advisors, better known
as house mothers, that know just
how to create the home away from
home environment.
Most women hear about this
kind of job from their daughters
who were either involved in sorori-
ties or have friends in them,
through word of mouth or through
advertisements in the newspaper.
Those who are interested set up an
interview with the sorority's presi-
dent for the job.
"We look for someone who is
responsible and can basically be our
surrogate mother while we're at
school said Carrie Rogers, presi-
dent of Zeta Tau Alpha.
Once the house chooses a per-
son to become the house advisor,
besides taking care of the house,
she also becomes the surrogate
mother to all the sorority residents.
"If something happens to one of
the girls, it's like it is happening
to your own child said Lara
Lee, house mother at Alpha Delta
Pi for 11 years. "You get so close
to them, it makes you sad to see
them graduate
In return, the ladies of the soror-
ity try to show their love and appre-
ciation for their house mothers.
"We love Myrtle Rogers said.
"She does so much for us?she's a
very hard working lady
"The girls do so much for me
said Myrtle Latimer, Zeta Tau
Alpha house mother for the last five
years. "I talk to the girls
every morning. It makes me feel
so special
Although being a house mother
has its rewards, it is not an easy
task. Many responsibilities go along
with the job, such as purchasing the
groceries, maintaining the house?

If you are preparing to graduate and
looking for a job and you didn't
attend career day, you may have
missed a very valuable opportunity.
On Wednesday September 23rd
the annual Career Day was held.
Now I know many of you are
wondering how that concerns you.
Career Day, according to Dr.
Jim Westmoreland, Director of
Career Services, "introduces orga-
nizations and businesses that will
come to campus for interviews dur-
ing the fall andor spring
semesters
The event is for the whole uni-
versity and was created so that stu-
dents could learn about the many
possibilities for employment and
graduate schools.
Westmoreland believes that
anyone who is interested in his or
her career or career possibilities will
benefit from the event because it is
the perfect opportunity to meet
and greet employers from around
the area.
You may not have expected to
see many of the businesses that
were there. Representatives from
corporations and organizations
such as Burlington Industries,
Aerotek, Campbell University Law
School, Nations Bank and other
unexpected business attended the
event.
Still wondering what you may-
have missed? Westmoreland
believes that attending Career Day
and meeting the representatives
from various businesses will
increase your networking and may
help in your future employment
search. Think that none of the
businesses would have anything to
do with your major?
Westmoreland points out that
by introducing yourself to the rep-
resentatives and speaking with
them you may come to realize that
many of the businesses you
believed had nothing to do with
your career just might surprise you.
Many of the businesses that
attend Career Day arc large corpo-
rations that employ people from a
broad range of majors.
For instance, a communications
major may not see the need to
speak with a retail company, but
the organization may have a need
for a public relations specialist or a
person with writing skills.
Trish Haney and Angela Goins,
representatives from John Hancock
Mutual Life both agreed that they
were very impressed with the stu-
dents they had met at Career Day.
Haney explained that their hope
in attending the event was, "to
bring December graduates into the
Raleigh office for interviews and
interest them in sales with John
Hancock
Hanely went on to say that
while they arc only looking to hire
strictly sales and marketing posi-
tions, they are interested in hiring
people from all backgrounds with
various degrees.
Novant I lealth, a health care
organization with two large hospi-
tals located in Winston Salem and
Charlotte was also at the event.
Representative Kim Cardwell
was there to answer any questions
and advised rhat students shouldn't
be too quick to assume that busi-
nesses at Career Day have nothing
to offer a student with their degree.
"Make sure you talk to and ask.
we hire people for housekeeping,
dietary, and management
Cardwell said.
By asking the right questions
you may be surprised to find that
many businesses arc linking to hire
graduates with various degrees and
majors. '
Westmoreland advises that to
make an even better impression on
a company you may be interested
in, write a thank you letter to the
representative you spoke with.

"There is no replacement for read-
ing a book in its original language
because some things just don't
translate. You can't claim to be
well educated if you know nothing
about cultures other than your
own. Language is the primary
form of expression for a culture and
is thereby irreplaceable
Schwarz also pointed out that to
obtain a doctorate at many colleges,
you must be able to read and trans-
late in at least two languages other
than your own.

Schwarz feels that in order to
retain the knowledge of a second
language a person must continue
to practice.
"The best way not to forget is to
stay practiced Schwarz said.
Schwarz suggests doing things
like watching foreign news and
movies, reading foreign magazines,
books and newspapers, all of which
can be a great help, and to try
using the internet to increase your
skills and stay up to date.
Schwarz and Hill agreed that
there are not as many students
passing foreign languages as there
should be, but that it was from
their lack of interest and bad study
habits. Students should study the
language everyday so that it is
always fresh in their minds.
Remember before just random-
ly choosing a language, you should
find one that you want to learn or
that you think that you have a
chance to use more regularly.
There are a number of jobs in the
area for multi-lingual people.
"Many companies that come
from overseas have to hire a certain
number of Americans for their
operations, but they need bilingual
people Hill said.

ment on the third floor of the

Using radar-like forensic equip-
ment, investigators spent their
holiday weekend combing
through a trash-ridden home
where they earlier pulled eight
corpses.
It's possible, police say, there
are more bodies hidden in or
around the home of Kendall
Francois, who is suspected in the
murders.So far, police have
released the names of seven of the
eight women found.
Most of the women had been
reported missing over the last two
years and had histories of prostitu-
tion and drug use.
On Sunday, police identified
one of the bodies as Mary Hcaley
Giaccone, a 29-year-old Pough-
keepsie woman. She was last seen
in February 1997.
The other six victims are
Catina Newmaster, 25; Catherine
Marsh, 29; Gina Barrone, 29;
Wendy Meyers, 30; Sandra
French, 51; and Audrey Pugliesc,
34.
According to police, finding

Where exactly does ECU receive money to
fund its athletic program and related special
activities? An immense amount is con-
tributed by local companies that are willing to
sponsor either a team or event in exchange
for an opportunity to advertise their business-
es. One example of this marketing
technique complies with associated
sponsorships of football games.
"We are of course indebted to our spon-
sors said Henry VanSant, associate athletics
director. "We've been real pleased with the
business community's response to supporting
our athletic budget and program
So that ECU does not appear opportunis-
tic, and too readily accepting of monetary
donations, it's important to consider the pack-
age deal that the sponsoring businesses are
offered. Included are passes for VIP tent
parking, where refreshments are provided,
and tickets to the game. They are also identi-
fied as the sponsor or co-sponsor on t.v. and
radio advertisements and arc recognized by
their company banners displayed throughout

The men's cross country team
competed in the N.C State

end. The Pirates finished third
behind national powers N.C.
State and South Florida.
"lb finish third with teams
like N.G, State, which is in the
top ten, and South Florida, who's
in the top twenty-five, is good.
They also beat some of the teams
that beat them last year, like UNC-

So that's a good beginning head
coach I .eonard Klepack said.
The Pirates were led by junior
Justin England who followed up
last week's first place run by finish-
ing fourth overall with a time of
24:10. Sophomore Stuart Will was
not far behind, finishing sixth over-
all with a time of 24:22.
"Justin England ran one of his
best races. He set a school record
for that course. Stuart Will also fin-
ished in the top ten Klepack said.
Sophomore Steve Arnold and
Junior Brian Beil finished 18th and

strong team performances, the

The ECU Pirate Club is in the
process of raising $10 million dol-
lars through the "Kickoff to
Victory" campaign, designed to
build the new sports strength &
conditioning center for the student-
athletes on campus. This new com-
plex will be arranged between
Dowdy-Ficklen stadium and
Williams Arena. The new building
will be 52,000 square feet with two
floors. The first floor will be 22,000
square feet for strength & condi-
tioning. The second floor will have
a banquet hall and terrace from
which Pirate Club members can
watch football games. The banquet
hall will double as a study hall dur-
ing the week for the student-ath-
letes.
"This new complex will be one

Open weekend

Pirates use weekend to
prepare for Army
Jim P h e l p s
SENIOR WRITER
Pirate football will take a break this
weekend, at least from game time.
This weekend is open for the team
and will provide time to prepare for
the Army game, scheduled for
October 3.
"We are using this time to pre-
pare for the wishbone head coach
Steve Logan said. "This comes at a
good time because it is a real diffi-
cult thing to prepare for and it gives
us an extra week to get lined up
right
The strategy that has worked
for he Pirates so far this season is
the option on offense which has
reinvigorated their running game.
"We struggled so badly last year
running the ball that we've gone
back to a two-back set. The option
is doing good for us Logan said.
The Pirates have been at 150
yards a game for all three games,
which has continued to be their
goal.
On defense, the Pirates have
gone back to a basic fundamental
defense set with very little pres-
sure.
"We're trying to bend and not
break, and we've been doing that
Logan said.
The players that have stood out
the most so far this season are those
making up the defensive front.
There has been a big improvement
in the performance by this group.
"They are playing like they
should have been playing all of last
year Logan said. "They played
good as sophomores and then
tailed off as juniors, and we've got a
recommitment and they are play-
ing really well up front
This time is not being used to
make changes to the line-up.
Against Virginia Tech, 62 team
members were played, 64 against
Chattanooga, and 54 against Ohio.
"We're playing almost two-deep
everywhere, some places three-
deep, so the line-up thing is not an
issue. We're playing a lot of peo-
ple Logan said.
The quarterback situation will
remain the same all season.
Whoever looks the best will go to
the upcoming games, as Logan is
not looking for a starting quarter-
back.
"We've got three kids that have
played so far this season, and
before the season is over all three
will playit's whoever's hot goes
Logan said.
The coaching staff is moving
players around as is the case of
Bobby Weaver, who played a little
at the halfback position against
Ohio. Weaver is one of the fastest
players on the team.
"We're just getting our best ath-
letes on the field Logan said.
The Pirates have suffered no
injuries so far this season. Because
they have been blessed with this
good fortune, they can focus on
their mission: using this free week
to prepare for the wishbone offense
and conference opponent Army.
Women's soccer
defeats VCU, 5-1
Team picks up first
conference win of year
Mario Sch erhaufer
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
The ECU women's soccer team
swept over Virginia
Commonwealth in its second con-
ference game of the season, win-
ning 5-1 on Tuesday afternoon.
Although they wete only up 2-1
at halftime, the Lady Pirates out-
shot the Rams 25-2. The win
leaves the Pirates 5-2 overall this
season, and 1-1 in the Colonial
Athletic Association, while the
Rams fall to 2-4 on the season and
0-2 in the CAA.
"After a difficult and disap-
pointing loss to George Mason last
week, I was concerned about our
mentality and our ability to
rebound head coach Neil
Roberts said.
"They (George Mason) brought
us back to earth but it was good
that it happened so early in the
season goalkeeper Amy Horton
said.
Stephanie Wrass was the first to
trick VCU's off-side trap when she
picked up a lohg pass from Erin
Cann and scored in the 24th
minute.
Nevertheless, VCU stuck to its
off-side trap tactic throughout the
entire game. Receiving long passes
over the heads of VCU's defense,
the Pirates' strikers were allowed
many chances for more goals.
"We knew about VCU's off-side
trap but we felt comfortable about
it and adjusted to it very well,
especially in the second half when
we got more out of our chances to
score Roberts said.
Without facing any serious chal-
lenge before, ECU keeper Horton
had to reach behind her to get the

Ruth rocketed the ball over
Morton's hands into the goal for the
tie at 32:10.
The tie was broken one minute
later when Shana Woodward
scored off a penalty kick to give
ECU the 2-1 halftime lead.
Amanda Duffy was fouled inside
the box and the referee did not
hesitate to call the foul.
"From my point of view, I
couldn't tell if she (VCU's keeper)
hit her (Duffy), but I take the PK
Roberts said.
Early in the second half, Kim
Sandhoff, ECU's most productive
scorer at this point in the season,
added both a goal and an assist to '?
the game. Freshman Tara
Carpenter scored the goal-of-the-
day when she saw the keeper out
of the goal and shot the ball above
her extended arms into the net.
Abi Temple added a goal after
receiving a long pass from ECU's
defense, for a Pirate victory, 5-1.
Besides ECU's offensive play-
ing style, Wrass was outstanding in
the Pirates midfield and junior Jill
Davis' defensive job was consid- !
ered "the anchor for a good game"
by keeper Horton.

Team competes at
Hoya tournament
Stephen Schkam m
senior whiter
The ECU golf team headed to
Leesville, Va. this weekend to
compete in the Georgetown Hoya
Invitational. The Pirates went to
the tournament as one of the tour-
nament favorites, thus they expect-
ed a strong showing. They finished
second to host school Georgetown.
"I was disappointed that we did-
n't win it. I thought we were the
best team there head coach
Kevin Williams said.
Though they didn't
leave as champions, the
Pirates still performed
well individually and as
a team. ECU was paced
by junior Marc Miller
and freshman Frank
Adams. Both Miller and
Adams shot 73 on
Saturday and 70 on
Sunday to finish with a
1-under-par 143 and a
tie for seventh place.
"I played pretty well. I had to
battle the first day. I made some
putts that made the difference
Adams said.
Fellow freshman M. Chad
Webb shot a 71 on Saturday and a
73 on Sunday to finish with a even-
par 144 and in thirteenth place.
Webb's accomplishment is made

several chain restaurants and com-
panies willing to support ECU ath-
letics said Angie Wellman, sports
marketing director. "Sometimes
we go out and solicit their support
and use the resources we have
through having contact with these
companies, and other times enthu-
siastic Pirate fans come to us wish-
ing to donate
Though the sponsors are
acknowledged during the football
games, it is not directly to this team
or program that the money is
admitted. Instead, all donations
enter a general fund and are appor-
tioned throughout the entire ath-
letic department.
Because the continuously grow-
ing athletic program and its fund-
ing needs are so dispersed, numer-
ous and new sponsors are always
appreciated.

as far as I can remember that five
guys shot 75 or better. That is the
type of consistency that we need to
get this program to the next level
Williams said.
Putting was one of the coach's
main concerns at the tournament,
however.
"We didn't putt very well. We
had a 291 on the first day and I
thought that was high. We struck
the bail well, we just didn't take
advantage Williams said.
The Georgetown Hoya
Invitational is unique, in that a
team must bring six players instead
of the usual five. The sixth men
play each other in the Gerry Kenny-
Sixth Man Classic. ECU's repre-
sentative, Scott Campbell, fin-
ished second with a six-over-par
150.
"If you count our sixth man, we
blew out Georgetown Williams
said.
