Winners of the Spirit Cup, the house and hall dec- orating contests, the floats, and the banner contest were also named throughout the week. "I really didn't expect to win Strickland said. "It was a big surprise O'Connor said that she was "overwhelmed and excited" when her name was announced. "I was in a state of shock O'Connor said. "My jaw dropped to the floor Nearly 940 stu- dents participated in the online vot- ing for King and Queen which was offered for the first time this year.

To win this, the ECU Ambassadors participated in every contest throughout the week and collected over 3J3O0 canned food goods for the canned food drive that took place during PIRATEFEST. The ECU Ambassadors were also named the win- ners of the house decorating contest while Cotten and Fleming Halls won the hall contest. The judges for this contest were Scott F'risch and Elizabeth Markowski. "The ECU Ambassadors house was well deco- rated with the front covered with purple and gold sheets judging coordinator Sage Hunihan said. Cotten and Fleming Halls were decorated with the Homecoming 70s, '80s, and '90s theme and had two men outside the halls dressed as cheerleaders dancing to '80s music. The department of Human linvironmental Sciences was named the winner of the float contest. The float was a large birthday cake celebrating the department's 30th anniversary. It was decorated with purple and gold, and when it arrived at the chancel- lor's house they sang "Happy Birthday" and gave out cupcakes. The floats were judged by David Powers, Seo Eo, and Jeffery Phipps. "The parade was great Henderson said. "There were no gaps and it went smooth with WITN 7 broadcasting it on channel eight Phi Sigma Pi Sorority won the banner contest. The sorority was named this year's winner during PIRATEFEST. The banners were judged in the Mendenhall brick yard on Wednesday by Sandra Triebenbacher, Douglas Schneider, and Bettie Ann Carroll. The ECU cheerleaders, the Marching Pirates, and the Solid Gold Dancers were set to perform for PIRATEFEST, but due to rain the event was forced to move from the Mendenhall brickyard into the Rec Center so only the cheerleaders performed. During the performance, over 8,000 canned food goods were collected for the Salvation Army. "I am very happy with the turnout since we were forced to move it indoors Henderson said. "Overall, it was a pretty busy week, but it was very successful. I am really excited for all the winners Jennifer O'Connor and Jon Strickland.

His piece, "Stacking Pagodas which was awarded Best In Show, was influenced by his strong intetest in Japanese art styles and architecture.

The statue, which will stand twice life size at 12 feet high on a 14 foot base, is made possible by philanthropist and art lover Irwin Belk, who donated $100,000 earlier this year to the Art School's foundry. A committee chosen by Chancellor Richard Eakin wanted Hollnagel to bear in mind the words "dar- ing "courageous "handsome and "athletic when designing the statue. The committee wanted the statue to have an authentic and historically accurate look. Belk had seen Hoilnagel's work previ- ously and was impressed with her talents. Belk recommended to members of the committee that Hollnagel be the artist chosen for the project. "I met Mr. Belk in Chicago at an art show, where he saw some of my works Hollnagel said. "I guess I was just in the right place at the right time Belk has funded statues at many other campuses throughout the South, includ- ing Furman University and U N C - Charlotte. Belk request- ed that a statue of the ECU mascot be erected. Hollnagel hopes to begin work on the statue within the month. The bronze statue will be cre- ated in the new Irwin Belk Foundry of the art building. Items to be placed on the base, such as a cannon and treasure chest, will also be created at the Belk Foundry. The committee will pay $22,000 for the statue's creation and the 14 foot high base could cost as much as $50,000. Committee members said it is not uncommon for the f The committee will design the statue after the model on the right. PHOTO BY KIM MCCUMBER base to cost more than the statue itself. Eakin has agteed to underwrite the cost of the base of the statue, but the exact source of the finances for the base has yet to be decided. Committee chairman Phil Dixon believes that the money could come from dis- cretional funds which the Chancellor uses for beautifi- cation projects throughout the campus. "Fans and opponents will be able to see this intimidat- ing, heroic pirate glaring at them from the end zone of the stadium hopefully by the start of next year's football season Dixon said. Dixon believes that this may be the first of many stat- ue projects over the next few years. Proposals to build statues of other people involved with the university may soon find their ways to the drawing board. "Depending on how this works out, someday we may be able to create statues of people such as North Carolina Senator Tom Jarvis who is considered the founder of ECU as well as many others Dixon said. 1 shows sell out Sales second only to Guys and Dolls Steve Losey news editor Near sellouts at the ECU Playhouse's production of Cabaret have made the musical one of the "two or three best selling shows ever according to Theatre Department chairman John Shearin. "The lines are jammed up Shearin said. "They're virtually selling out Managing director Jeff Woodruff estimated that nearly 3,000 tickets have been sold as of Monday. McGinnis Theatre has a maximum occupancy of 617. Ticket sales are very close to 1993's production of Guys and Dolls, the highest selling produc- tion in the history of the Playhouse. "We're doing practically sold- out performances every night Woodruff said. The final production of Cabaret is tonight at 8 p.m. Many students have encoun- tered answering machines when trying to purchase tickets over the phone. The box office has only two phone lines available for tick- et sales, but Woodruff said that adding more lines would not decrease the congestion. "If we added two more phone lines, we would still need four more Woodruff said. "If we added four more, we would still need another eight Adding phone lines is not necessarily the answer Woodruff said that other choic- es are being considered. The Theatre Department may add more ticket booths to the two already in place. "The lines have been steady, not long Woodruff said. "There are people there all day, not a mad rush Woodruff expects the rest of the shows scheduled for this sea- son to sell vigorously. "We have a very strong sea- son Woodtuff said. Ticket sales of 90 percent are considered a sell out, according to Shearin. A few tickets are saved for emergencies or comp tickets for families and friends of cast members. "There are three reasons for the high ticket sales Shearin said. "One, it's a very good show. Two, we've done some of our best marketing for this and that's attributed to Jeff. Third, there's a very successful revival going on in New York right now Woodruff felt that choosing Cabaret was a wise move. "It's a very well known musical and movie Woodruff said. "Its got great songs and a very interest- ing plot. Not all musicals have as strong a plotline as Cabaret The Playhouse's next produc- tion is Mother Courage and Her Children, which will run Nov. 19- 24. mm. 2 Tuaidiy, Octolur 13, 1998 news The Eiit Carolinian news briefs Jackson calls for "new focus" on economy RALEIGH (AP) - The New South needs a new focus, away from racial tensions and toward economic inclusiveness, the Rev.

The jury will return Monday to decide whether Parker should be execut- ed or spend the rest of his life in prison.

Owner Bermuda field study ends Shipwrecks studied could become theses Devon White staff writer Graduate students from the Maritime History and Nautical Archeology departments have returned from a month-long field study in Bermuda. The students studied various shipwrecks ranging from 1600s to the 1800s. Many of the shipwrecks that the students study have prospects for becoming thesis top- ics. "This trip was everything I hoped it would be said Doug Jones, a graduate student of Maritime History. "It was an over- all good learning experience. " The intensive study lasted from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day and often continued into the evening. The students dove all day then recorded found data and map sites at night. The Bermuda Maritime museum provided housing, boats and one of the "best conservation laboratories in the hemisphere said Gordon Watts, professor of Maritime History. Exploration of shipwrecks in Bermuda is easier due to its clear and shallow waters. "Bermuda is an ideal environ- ment to teach underwater skills that are associated with underwater archeology Watts said. Watts has been taking a group of grad students to Bermuda for field study every year since 1983. "Gordon is an excellent field study director Jones said. Keith Southerly, one of the grad- uate students, will be using the Hunter Galley shipwreck as the topic for his thesis paper. The nine students studied the Hunter Galley closely during the trip and believe it might be an old Bermuda Sloop wreck dating back to 1751. This is the first known structural evidence found and studied. Because the remains of the wreck are few, the evidence is still inconclusive. Now that the stu- dents have returned they will be working to determine if the exam- ples are in fact remains of a Bermuda Sloop. The main purpose of the trip was to teach the students about underwater archeology. "Field school gives a broad range for the students to study said Frank Cantelas, professor of Maritime History.

CO. Greenville, 78584353 for Ifitoimation, call 819 32B.6366 oumsw By now we hope everyone has heard about the new pirate statue soon to tower above the average man and woman. Well, if you haven't, these are the facts. Former member of the Pirate Club, Irwin Belk, recently donated a sum of money to the university foundry for the purpose of building a statue, which will be placed in front of the Ward Sports Medicine Building. We think this is an absolutely fantastic idea. Who wouldn't like to see our mascot, our university's symbol of competition, glory and pride, representing the university of which we are all so proud. Members of the committee said they hoped this was the beginning of many statues to be erected on campus. TEC not only encourages this; we have lots of ideas too. The Ward Sports Medicine Building is fine, but it would also be nice for students who do not travel to that part of the campus to be able to admire a statue. A statue placed on main campus is more practical. The bulk of ECU students spend the majority of their time on main campus. The options are endless. A statue would be a nice addition just about anywhere on campus, including the mall, Wright circle, or the Brewster courtyard. But hey, why stop there? ECU is a pretty diverse campus. We are surrounded by people representing many races, cultures, religions and beliefs. Anything representing the university, including statues, should somehow capture that diversity. We should explore the idea of an African American, Native American, Hispanic or female statue. Remember, there were pirates of many nationalities and more than one gender on the sea and at ECU? In addition to the many races and cultures we could represent, we should not forget the people who made the university what it is today. Those who have contributed their life's work, money and time to our university such as important professors, chancellors and students. It would be great to see the faces of those men and women to whom we owe much of our tradition, and whom we tend to forget about, captured in various spots around campus. There are a lot of people, in addition to our beloved pirate, who should loom large in our minds and on our campus. In this simple way we can keep our tradition and diversity alive. OPINION Stephen KLEINSCHMIT Columnist Damn Yankee complains of inequality have been made fun of by toothless, tobacco chewing, Evercleer drinking, motor oil covered, Nascar watching, overall wearing middle school dropouts who make fun of me because I have a "funny " accent. Either that, or I can actually speak in complete sentences. It seems that everybody loves to find some way to divide from everybody else, whether it be racism, nationalism or pride. But I feel the stupidest excuse to make fun of someone is because he or she is from the North. I have been made fun of constantly because I was born in Chicago, and somehow I am supposedly not equal to a Southerner. I have been made fun of by- toothless, tobacco chewing, Evercleer drinking, motor oil covered, Nascar watching, overall wearing middle school dropouts who make fun of me because I have a "funny" accent. Either that, or I can actually speak in complete sentences. And these guys seem to be proud that they bust their butts everyday to live barely at or above the poverty level and go home and beat their wives. They are the last people with a reason to look down upon me. I like the South. I think Virginia, North Carolina and Louisiana are probably the prettiest places on the planet. And I haven't met a person yet from New Jersey who didn't want to get out of there and move down here. But I don't think that we are all better people than they are. The only difference between us and them is that they like to cuss a lot. It's as if their English teachers in grade school taught them to use the f- word as the periods to their sentences. Also, the Civil War is over. And even though it was over a hundred and thirty-three years ago, people down South seem to harbor resentment about it. The West Lincoln Fligh School mascot is a rebel soldier. There are people who wave the Confederate flag so angrily, you would think they just heard about the surrender at ppomattox. These things are usually associated with a detrimental influence to the community, and promote an atmosphere of intolerance and bigotry. The final thought that I want you to leave with is how I feel when someone makes fun of this damn Yankee. We are all humans who are different in some way from each other, and I really can't see why I would let something such as where you live determine who your friends are going to be. Look for qualities in the person; things that set a that person aside, such as standards and morality. Don't judge people because they don't sound like Hank Williams when they talk. OPINION Columnist Brian HALL Clinton's escapades no surprise " would seem that we all made up our minds about the presidents character before anyone had heard of Monica Lewinsky. Surely no one is surprised that President Clinton has not remained faithful to his wife Europeans love to complain about our country's puritanical streak. Despite this reputation, we seem to be remarkably tolerant and open-minded about President Clinton's infidelity. How upset can we really be when his job approval rating is still above 50 percent? It would seem that we all made up our minds about the president's character before anyone had heard of Monica Lewinsky. Surely no one is surprised that President Clinton has not remained faithful to his wife. Twice we took the "enlightened" position that his personal life is not our concern, electing him president with the foreknowledge that he had "caused pain in his marriage But in President Clinton's case, I would suggest that what is euphemistically called the "character issue" does matter, not because of what it says about his morals (we have had plenty of effective and immoral leaders), but because of what it demonstrates about his judgment. The president is not the first politician to have problems with the "character issue" and his judgment. Three of the most recent cases of men like this are John Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, and Gary Hart. Each of these men had some glaring lapse of judgment that threatened (or ended) his career (the Bay of Pigs, Chappaquiddick, and daring reporters trying to catch him cheating on his wife, respectively). Likewise, President Clinton is facing the current mess because of his own decisions. If it is true, as the president's supporters frequently claim, that he is one of the smartest presidents we have ever had, it must also be acknowledged that he has shown appalling judgment throughout the Lewinsky affair. Let's run through a brief but not comprehensive list of the errors in judgment made by the president this year. First, while facing a trial for sexual harassment, he had an affair with a White House intern less than half his age. Second, when questioned under oath, he lied about it. Third, he shook his finger at the American public while denying anything happened. Fourth, he sent his cabinet out to lie for him. Fifth, he only admitted to the affair after eight months of investigation had proven that he was guilty. Sixth, after admitting to the affair he offered a lame apology and then attacked those who were investigating him. The really stunning thing about this is that President Clinton knew that the Republicans were looking for an issue to nail him on. He knew that Ken Starr was out to get him any way that he could. Why hand your worst enemies a gift like this? With this sort of track record, why should we trust the president to make the important decisions the country faces today? Why- should we think that he will make the right decisions about Kosovo, Iraq, or the economy? Would the Board of Trustees trust a chancellor to run ECU if he had shown this sort of judgment? For that matter, would you trust someone like this to run your academic department? A fast food restaurant? Anything? Then why would you trust him to run the country? LETTER to the Editor Callousness to plight of homeless shocking This is in response to the article "Vagrants need to get off their bums God, I hope this guy is just kidding. But I suspect he isn't. On the assumption that he's serious, let me point out a few facts. Yes, some people are out begging for money that could otherwise be out working, if they had clean clothes, if they had a place to shower, if they could even get a job given their history. A lot of "ifs And, of course, I said some people. The truth is that many of those "withered old men" (and women) you see on the street are there because of mental illness. They are incapable of acting on your pearls of wisdom. It is, apparently, a little known fact that a few decades ago the government, in its omniscience, decided that since public mental facilities had become places where people warehoused and abused by unqualified thugs, we should shut them down and release the patients. We set adrift victims of violence, child abuse, rape, and their own biochemistries, and the result was inevitable. So, instead of solving one problem (by say, fixing the facilities) we simply created another. And there is another group out on the streets. They are the dispossessed. These are the people who, through tragedy of plain bad luck, have simply lost everything. And in modern industrial society, it just isn't possible to pull up the stakes and start over somewhere with a mule and forty acres. But what really disturbed me when I considered the aforementioned article isn't the stupidity of government or the crucify of chance. What really bothers me is the callousness and shallowness of the present generation. The author of this piece closed by making half- hearted remarks suggesting the decent citizenry join together to lift up the dregs of society (I'm paraphrasing a bit), but the truth is that it is very easy to make glib statements about something you have no experience of. Daniel Ketchum Graduate Student International Studies LETTER to the Editor Reader sounds off with romantic advice lETTER to the Editor MTV VP voices thanks, clarification I I'm honored that you devoted an entire page on me in your "Welcome Back" issue. The reporter, Amanda Austin, asked all the right questions, her story was well written, and her characterization of my career path since I have graduated from ECU, in 1983, was accurate. However, I do want to make an important clarification. In one of the side bars, Austin listed my favorite bands as the Allman Brothers, the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. The question Amanda asked was, "what were some of your favorite bands while you were attending ECU?" As a former editor of the cutting edge magazine Option, former music editor at Rolling Stone, and current executive who develops new music programs for MTV, it's important to me that students don't walk away from the article with an inaccurate picture of my musical tastes. Since the early '80s, numerous artists have weaved their way into my consciousness, changing my life and opening my mind in ways that Dylan and the Stones did way back when. Some of those artist include R.E.M Public Enemy, Sonic Youth, Dr. Dre, PJ Harvey, Nirvana, Liz Phair, Beck, Radiohead and the list continues to grow. Again, thanks for the article. Mark Kemp VP Music Development MTV After reading the article about romance on campus on Oct. 1 I would like to make a few comments. Romance goes both ways. The responsibility does not lie of the guy alone. The ladies should put froth a little effort as well. Love is not blind, and love does not conquer all. Relationships require lots of patience and effort, and sometimes they still fail. It's part of life. Deal with it. Robert Heinlein said, "sex should be friendly. Otherwise, stick to mechanical toys. It's more stationary Sex is great, but it is not love. Don't confuse the two. It is better to be alone than be with someone who treats you badly. They will not change. Know when to cut your losses. Prince Charming and Sleeping Beauty make a damn nice story, but there's a reason it is called a fairv tale. Never argue in bed. WVre all naked and vulnerable there. You can argue anywhere else, but bed should be a safety zone. Leibniz defined love: "To love another is to take delight in the happiness of another, or, what amounts to the same thing, it is to regard another's happiness as oneljS own. And now your homework. Guy tell her how you feel. Rub her feeaV Girls, be patient. Make the finft move at least 50 percent of the. time. Both, be romantic. Have fuife Mike Ruff Junior , Philosophy.

With statistics as high as 1 out of even' 8 women being diagnosed with this disease, it is very impor- tant that women and men know the causes, symp- toms, risk factors and detec- tion methods of this terrible disease. Normally your body cells are constantly divid- ing and producing more cells, when needed, to keep your body healthy. With cancer your cells become abnormal and begin dividing with out control or order. These cells then form tissue that isn't needed and these lumps of extra tissue are' then called tumors. The tumors are identified as being either be- nign, not cancerous, or malignant; cancerous. If breast cancer is not caught early enough the malignant cancer cells may enter the body through the bloodstream and spread throughout the body. This form of cancer, originating in the breast area, is called metastatic breast cancer. Many risk factors are associated with breast cancer. While all women arc at risk, women who eat a high fat diet, smoke, are obese, have a family history, consume alcohol, have an early onset of menstruation (before age 12) or have their first child late or choose not to have chil- dren, are the most likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Nearly 30 of all breast cancer patients exhibit these risk factors. "It is very important to do breast self exams said Julie Denning, graduate student at Health Education. "Visual exam- ines are important as well in the early detection of breast cancer Early detection she says is the most important fac- tor in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Denning recommends that a woman 20 years old or older should perform a breast self exam at least once a month the week after her period and receive a clinical breast exam by her doctor once a year. However, it is never to early to begin because the more familiar a woman is with her breasts the more likely it is that she will be able to notice a change in them that may be a symptom of breast cancer. Symptoms of the disease can include a discharge from the nipple, a lump or thickening in or near the breast area or a change in the color or feel of the skin on and around the breast. Denning also points out that if a woman finds a lump or notices any of the symptoms they should contact their doctor right away, but not to panic. "Nearly 80 of lumps women find are not cancerous Denning said. What are a woman's options once she is diagnosed with breast cancer? Denning said that there are various treatments available for a woman diagnosed with breast cancer. One being a lumpecto- my where the surgeon only removes a small area of the breasts where the lump is located. A mastectomy may also be per- formed. A mastectomy is the removal of the entire breast, which Denning explains may be the best option for a patient with a family history of breast cancer. Chemotherapy and radiation ther- apy are also treatments that are available. While breast cancer is the most common type of cancer for womenother than skin cancer) the disease is treatable and with early detection Denning says, "There is a high survival rate Nine and a half out of ten women treated will be alive five years later. The best weapons a woman has in the fight against breast can- cer are a healthy diet and an over- all healthy lifestyle and of course early detection through breast self exams.

Such changes can be seen by putting your arms behind your head and looking and then placing your hands on your hips and contracting your pectoral, or chest muscles. Women 40 and over should have a clinical exam and a mammogram every year and still perform a breast self-examination each month. A mammogram becomes so important at this age because the likeliness of being diagnosed with breast cancer is much higher in this age range. A mammogram can be used to detect a lump as small as a half centimeter because an older woman's breast tissue is less dense. E K I Ai.dkkm.w SIU F W R I T K R With the number of breast cancer victims growing, it is vital for women to perform self breast examinations. The American Cancer Society recommends that a woman 20-39 years old, should perform a breast self-exam once a month and have a clinical exam. Along with the man- ual breast self-exam a visual breasts exam should also be performed each month. To perform a visual exam stand in front of a mirror and look for obvious changes in the appearance of your breasts. Changes such as: dimpling of your skin, an inverted nipple, any discoloration of the breast, change in size or shape or any form of discharge from the nip- HOW TO Perform a Self-Examination 1.

Ixarn what your breast feels like most of the time. A firm ridge in the lower curve of each breast is normal. 4. Move around each breast in a set way. You can choose cither the circle (A), the up and down (B), or the wedge (C). Do it the same way everytimc. 5. Now examine your left breast using your right hand linger pads. 6. Repeat the examination of both breasts while stand- ing, with one arm behind your head. You may want to do the standing part in the shower. Some breast changes can be felt more easily when your skin is wet and soapy.

Dry SENIOR WRITER October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and ECU's cam- pus organizations have been any- thing but slack as they have partici- pated in putting out the informa- tion to students and the Greenville community. The office of Health Promotion and Well- Being is playing an active role by putting out information for students to learn more about breast cancer. "Health Promotion and Weil- Being has a research room with a wide range of breast cancer pam- phlets and brochures in Whichard room 210 said Dr. Donna Walsh, director of Health Promotion and Well-Being. "The majority of what is happening has been through the Student Health Center The Student Health Center (SHC) has also set up a display in the lobby where they can receive information and pick up their pink ribbons which acknowledges this as Breast Cancer Awareness month. SHC also gives Breast Cancer Awareness programs to the resi- dence halls. "At the programs I talk about breast cancer statistics, the risk fac- tors of getting breast cancer, I use a breast model to show women how to perform breast self exams, and prevention tips through breast self exams and yearly check ups with a health care provider said Beth Credle, a health education graduate assistant Credle said if anyone is interest- ed in having a health educator come and give an information program at their residence hall, call the Student Health Center at 328-6794 and contact the Health Education Department. Sororities also played a big role in campus participation. Zeta Tau Alpha has passed pink ribbons and shower cards to students at the Wright Plaza on Tuesday, October 6. "The shower cards are labeled don't be a fool and shows women how to perform the breast self exams said Carrie Rogers, presi- dent of Zeta Tau Alpha. They also had a National Denim Dress Down Day fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research Foundation. "Susan G. Komen died of breast cancer and her foundation is our national philanthropy Rogers said. The sorority targeted businesses that usually did not dress down and collected $5 from the employees. Those who participated dressed down on Friday, October 9. All the money that was raised at this fundraiser and all of the other fundraisers that Zeta Tau Alpha puts together throughout the year goes to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research Foundation. "This past year at the National Convention in Richmond, Va they announced that the Zeta Tau Alpha chapter raised over $1 million for the Susan G. Komen foundation Rogers said. Gamma Sigma Sigma also partic- ipated by being a major sponsor at the Pink Ribbon Walk on Saturday, October 3 at the Carolina East Mall from 11-4. "The girls help set up for the walk and got the pink ribbons for the Council of Women and the Pitt County Health Center said Amber James, president of Gamma Sigma Sigma. The sisters also had a breast can- cer survivor speak to them at GCB. "She spoke to us and brought shower cards that showed how to do breast self exams James said.

In 1993, Congress directed that medical students and physicians should have access to information about nutrition in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. The creation of the Images of Cancer Prevention site was based on a CD-ROM, of the same name, created in January 1997.

Strong defense shuts out Seahawks Stephen Schramm SENIOR WRITER The ECU women's soccer team hosted arch-rival UNC- Wilmington last week and came away with an important confer- ence victory. The Pirates were led by their strong defense and good team play. ECU entered Wednesday's game with a 1-2 conference record while the Seahawks were winless in the conference. Both teams failed to capitalize on early chances. UNC-Wilmington was thwarted time and again by the strong play of ECU's Jill Davis and Chrisy Bernabe. "I thought Chrisy Bernabe led the way and our back line played very well when they needed to ECU head women's soccer coach Neil Roberts said. ECU finally scored when Erin Cann knocked in a Davis lob off of a corner. "The goal came off of a corner kick. We've been practicing those a lot this year. It was crossed in the air and I was trying to score, but it didn't go far enough. Cann turned around and volleyed it in and it was a really nice goal Davis said. ECU held off UNCW in the second half and won 1-0. "When we play Wilmington it will always be a huge match. They're a conference school, it's a huge rivalry and it runs deeper than a lot of people realize, as far as recruiting in the state of North Carolina, so it's a very big victory for us Roberts said. "In the last four or five matches, I think we've been struggling to be emotionally and mentally in the matches and I thought we hung tough today and played together, a lot better than we have in the past. I'm pleased with it The ECU defense made the match tight. The defense stopped all UNCW chances throughout the match and kept the ball on the ECU side of the field during the last minutes. "I think that was the best defensive game all year. I mean nobody got through on anything, we shut them down really well.

"They came up teal hard on the slant I pumped it to them, they bit on it and Troy just went right past them. I just tossed it over their heads "After that, they just started caking off deep, so we started running comebacks on them Garrard said. After a slow start, the Pirate running game showed some improvement. Jamie Wilson led the team in rushing with 96 yards on 19 carries, while Leonard Henry added 70 yards on 15 car- ries. "I think overall we ran the ball pretty hard today Wilson said. "We concentrated on getting four yards a carry and I think we accomplished that today Logan was pleased with the running game as well. "We did well running the football, especially late Logan said. "I was really tickled with the intensity which Leonard and Jamie were running the ball. They were breaking tackles and getting north and south ECU was without quarterback Bobby Weaver, who dressed but did not play. Weaver is expected to play this Saturday in Birmingham when ECU takes on Alabama. "He could've played, but if he had gocten a helmet on the ankle then we'd be right back where we were Logan said.

Epsilon Sigma Alpha provides services to local organizations such as the Ronald McDonald House, the Women's Shelter, and St. Jude's Children's Hospital. They also have fund raisers such as car washes, bake sales and magazine sales.

There is usually always at least one positive outcome whether it be better sound, the recovering of lost musical parts in songs, or the regaining of lost songs altogether. Raleigh natives Whiskeytown have done all of the above with the Outpost Records re-release of the band's critically praised debut Faithless Street. Named after the street in Raleigh singersongwriter Ryan Adams was living on while most of the material was written, Faithless Street now harbors nine new tracks that were not on the first cut as well as new artwork. But best of all, the album was re-mastered, thus producing better sound quality and unleashing certain parts that were previously omitted. The order remains fairly constant to that of the original with the exception of a bonus track here or there. Most of the newer (or rather older non-released material) falls at the end of the disc One odd aspect of this re-issue is that Adams decided to totally delete the song "Oklahoma" from the track listing because he claims to have never really liked it anyway. To compensate for this lost track the band credits a previously unnamed bonus track to the record titled "Revenge When Faithless Street was first released in 1995 it was widely praised by critics because of its unique style of music, "alternative country" (a mesh of country and rock) as well as superb songwriting on behalf of Adams. The gems that were originally left out from the initial release will surely have critics staining their pants, if you get my drift. Adams often writes of heartbreaks and loneliness, so the songs on Faithless Street can be compared to those of the early country master of sad songs: Hank Williams. A love for the bottle is evident on the record with songs such as "Drank Like a Riveif "Too Drunk to Dream and "Tennessee Square which is home to the lyrics: "So I sit here alone on the porch drinkin' whiskey in Granddaddy's chair The greatest difference between the reissue and the original is that the voice of singerfiddle player Caitlin Cary is more prominent. Her beautiful, sad harmonies were left out on a great deal of the origi- nal cuts. This was a considerably large mistake because her harmonies that were left out of See Whiskeytown, continued on page 3 Amy LRoyster Editor in Chief Heather Burgess Managing Editor Miccah Smith Editor Stephanie WhiUodc Outgo Brian Williams layout Janet (tepessAfartisng Manager Bobby TuggkVWxnaitef Serving the ECU community since 19ft. tht East Carolinian publishes 11.000 copm every Tuesday and Thursday.

Gibb used to be a regular at the Attic and could be counted on for a show every month or so but lately his trips to Greenville have been sparse, the main reason being that the band was road weary and decided that it was time stop. Haphazardly, Gibb met up with a bassist and drummer and the magic that led him to continue his love of delivering music to his many loyal fans was there. The lineup shifted completely from a foursome of gui- tar, drums, bass guitar, and piano. The newest incarnation of the Gibb Droll Band is now a power trio con- sisting of all the same elements except piano and the actual person- nel Our evening began, as they all do, with a small crowd that are wit- ness to the opening band. However, me openef slated for the night was a delightful exception. S.M.O. (which is short for Screaming Multiple Orgasms) traveled all the way from Athens Ga. to play for a mere three people in the crowd. But after the first couple of tunes, folks began to wander in and lend an ear. S.M.O. had a unique style that emitted many channels of influence. One highlight of the set was a cover of the Doobie BrothersWithout Love Where Would You Be" which they spiced up and gave a harder rocking edge. S.M.O. were spectacu- lar tight musicians and had a grace- ful stage presence in that they joked and laughed at the grim crowd. Elements of hard rock, funk, reg- gaeand blues were prominent in the band's style and from the response, they will probably be playing in Greenville again soon. At midnight, the Gibb Droll Band took the stage. To many, the unfa- miliar faces were equivalent to a See Droll, continued on page 7 Its Your Place For Midnight Madness SATURDAY.

Mobster. Illiterate man. The guy from Awakenings that had that bigawakening. Deer Hunter. Euro action-movie hero? You betcha! In his new movie Ronin, he plays Sam, a former CIA agent who's hired by a faceless employer to steal a suitcase containing God only knows what. The plot of the story is that Sam is grouped with a team of former KGB agents and other mercenaries that have quit their companies due to per- sonal politics, and together they are to recover a suitcase for an employer that they never meet Sam is the sole American in the group, and he is per- secuted by a co-worker from the very Take my advice and don't mm with my of em. They're all bad newi start. However, he keeps his cool and indeed makes a fool out of anyone willing to sharp-shoot at him. The actual word "ronin" plays a fairly large role in the movie, but only if you really think about it. The "ronin" were Japanese samurai who lost their masters, becoming "untouchables" in Japanese society. Some of them pros- pered, but most became part of a grit- ty underworld of thieves and merce- naries who would strike out against their former lords. The various char- acters in the film, a motley, interna- tional band of rogue agents, fit this description rather well. There are actually two more stars in the movie. The first is the car chase scenes. I can easily draw a parallel to The French Connection, a movie that revolutionized the action movie by using cars as vehicles of mass destruc- tion. In Ronin, cars are treated no dif- ferently. There are three car chases, all with their own distinctions. The main theme of them, overall, is to destroy as much of the surrounding city as pos- sible. As cars drive through cafes at top speed, the food isn't the only thing in danger. Pedestrians are hit, as is one very unlucky cyclist The other star of the film is the sound effects. I saw the movie in the new Carmike Cinema with the speak- ers mounted all along the wall, and it was phenomenal. One speaker was playing the sound of the raindrops hitting the building in which the scene was taking place, and another was playing the dialogueooth at the same volume! And the sound of gun- shots is just so loud and in-your-face, you can't help but jump. All in all, Ronin is enough shooting and espionage to satisfy every actionadventure aficionados palate. The entire cast is exquisite, as is the double-cross fueled story. Do yourself a favor. Go see it, but don't ever ask what's in the suitcase. Whiskeytown, continued from page 2 songs such as "Black Arrow, Bleeding Heart" add a great deal to the somberness of the record. Although the new bonus tracks are being released for the first time, they are not totally foreign to the Whiskeytown fans. "Desperate Ain't Lonely" and "Lo-Fi Tennessee Mountain Angel two real heart- breakers, have been a staple of the band's live shows from the early days. Also, a handful of tunes recorded at what the band terms the "Baseball Park Sessions" do hap- pen to appear on Whiskeytown's second record and Outpost debut Strangers'Almanac. Of the hundreds of songs Adams has written in his lifetime, no other sticks mind more so than "Excuse Me While I Break My Own Heart Besides during five shows, this song was also first heard on Strangers'Almanac. It was a rocking heartbroken song that was tortured in a good way by a crying pedal steel guitar. The Faithless Street ver- sion is the same but there is little rock and roll in the song. Now its pretty much pure sappy old school country and ifs still sad as all hell. Faithless Street, as well as all of Whiskeytown's material, is lyrically ingenious. Aside from this album, the music that the band generates is well-rounded and flexible. The band obviously pays much homage to Hank Sr. and Gram Parsons on Faithless Street, whereas lately they have been nodding at the Rolling Stones and the Replacements. The band is currently finishing up a tour and then they'll return to the studio once again to record a new album. Recording is set to start sometime in or after November and a release date is not really pre- dictable, but is should be well worth waiting for. l3ecome a member.

From October 16th through the 20th, students will depart from academia, free from the binds of studying and schoolwork. So what to do on this fall break? Where to go to unwind? The choices seem endless. You could go patch up that long-distance relationship and indulge in mom's home cooking back home. You might just relax in G-town with the locals, or actually start doing some work this semester. Sure, you could do any number of things that require low energy, or you could have an outdoor adventure! Yes, go jump in a lake. Take a hike. Listen for trees falling in the woods. For the lucky students who keep in touch with the Student Rec Center on campus, heading back to nature is on tab for the two planned trips offered for fall break this year. The two trips are to Cumberland Island, Georgia, for sea kayaking, or to Shenandoah National Park for hik- ing and backpacking. At Cumberland Island, the group will sharpen their sea-kayak skills while exploring a part of the AtlanticCarolinian Biosphere Reserve. If you love lots of sun and water, you'd be right at home on a trip like this one. The group plans to paddle approximately 20 miles in and around Cumberland Island, exploring its beaches and marshes. Another group of students with the outdoor bug are heading to Shenandoah National Park. Here they will enjoy 4 days of hiking and backpacking in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Shenandoah is located near Charlottesville which is famous for its breathtaking scenery and truly engaging hiking trails that include waterfalls, riffs and the thriving wildlife inhabiting the area. Among students not involved with the Rec Center's organized adventure trips, the popular "high energy" plan seems to be camping and hiking with friends, at other places of interest One of the places is Ocracoke, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Junior Sara Ross visits the area often and finds it to be her favorite camp- ing getaway on the Outer Banks. "Ifs a remote and beautiful area said Ross. "The many different kinds of birds and the wild ponies really add to the natural experience. Plus, it's a pretty cheap little vacation The quaint village of Ocracoke, on the island's southern soundside, has an interesting history including the 1823 Ocracoke Lighthouse. There are dozens of wonderful shops that add to the island's historic attractions. Also, many self-guided trails for hiking wind around the island. Among those who missed the sign-up for the Shenandoah trip and still plan on camping in the moun- tains. Western North Carolina appears to be the spot.

Lederman 11 months in jail. He was out in three weeks because Fairfax County jail officials couldn't afford his kosher meals. The 43-year-old Orthodox Jew was sent home last month and placed on home detention. The special meals would have cost the jail an extra $70 a day, Chief Deputy Sheriff James A. Vickery said Tuesday. Prosecutor James Bitner isn't happy, and wants police to investigate whether Lederman's meal request was valid. "I always believed that when a jury sentences someone to jail they go to jail Bitner said. "I didn't know they would later be released because the jail couldn't meet that person's needs CHARLOTTE, N.C(AP) When 2,000 people want to be bap- tized, that's a lot of dunking, and a lot of time.

Dr. Strangelove, cult classic �� lite ottno world in tht handi of rtfj�gunYiip, m' gonna diet David Moon StaffWriter Dr. Stmngelove, or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb, is a black and white film to be found in the video store under the heading "Cult ClassksThis is one of those films that keeps popping up in con- versations among any film lovers, and now I realize why. The Stanley Kubric film has a wonderful cast In the beginning you feel as if you are watching an Air Force docu- mentary, until it slowly draws you into the story. A crazed General Jack Ripper seals off his air base and orders a mysterious code "R Captain Mandrake (Peter Sellers) who is a British exchange officer, is immediately perplexed. It seems code "R" is a retaliatory nudear strike to a Russian sneak attack. The orders go out and the bombers are launched. When Mandrake goes to confront Ripper however, he is locked in the office with the General and subjected to his zany ideas on bodily fluids. It seems that the fluoridation of the nation's water is a Communist con- spiracy. It also seems that Ripper has triggered the Apocalypse.

It is here that we meet Dr. Strangefove, who only has a small role. He is a former Nazi now work- ing for the Americans in designing weapons. It seems his only purpose in the movie is to describe what the Russian Doomsday Machine is, and to explain why dropping a few bombs on Russia would result in the Earth's annihilation. Wfe're also introduced to the character that makes this movie a must-see for any fan of film. His name is General "Bucky" Turlington, played perfectly by George C Scott I grew up hearing how wonderful an actor Scott is, but until now did not necessarily accept the opinion. However, after seeing him in this role that he did in his younger years, I am duly impressed. He played the comedic military General of the Cold War perfectly. He was the most amusing military char- acter I have ever seen, and makes a movie that is sometimes dreary worth seeing for his character alone. Peter SeDers does have a few comedic moments of his own while locked in Ripper's office, but he is outshone throughout by Scott. One of the best scenes in the film is when the American President has to explain over the phone to the Russian Premier, who is drunk, that our bombers are coming and we cannot stop them. When Captain Mandrake finally does get the code and cancel the strike, one of our bombers, upon which James Earl Jones plays a small part, does not receive the message due to damage. At the end of the movie, her captain rides the bomb down to its target, and the explosion sets off the Russian Doomsday Machine. I was duly impressed with the film, especially with George C. Scott.

So many people called in sick to the General Motors assembly plant Monday night 140 of them that the factory was shut down. It just so happens the Green Bay Packers were playing the rival Minnesota Vikings. The virus has struck the plant before: Workers were sent home during a Monday night game in October 1996 after 200 employees called in sick Plant officials were prepared this time. They sent employees a letter last week stressing the importance of showing up for work Televisions around the plant were tuned in to the game, which the Vikings won. The Packers play another night game Oct. 15 at Detroit. Plant officials plan to talk with employees who called in sick Monday in hopes of avoiding the same problem. "We're all rooting for the Packers, but people have to be responsible and come to work plant manager Gary Giles said. JACKSON, Mich. (AP) Two things worth noting happened when Keith Long teed up at the par-3 fourth hole at Gracewil Pines Golf Course. First, the 5-year-old boy made a hole-in-one on Sunday. "I hit the ball and it hit the green and went and rolled over to the flag Keith said. And then?

He recently got his first set of junior dubs. "I can hit the ball good he said. CHARLESTON, WVa.(AP) Rosie Nelson is dead again and she's sick of it. Her daughter, Donna Lappert, received a familiar call Monday from the bookkeeping department at the bank where Nelson deposits her Social Security check. The U.S. Treasury, relying on false information that Nelson is dead, had asked the bank to return her Social Security money for the third time in four months. Social Security officials told Nelson on June 21 that she was dead. She showed up in person to prove other- wise and her benefits were restored. Eight days later, Social Security killed her again. The problem was fixed, only for Nelson, 64, to be killed off a third time. "I don't know if I'm not easy to kill she said. "Or maybe it's that I just refuse to die Cathy Noe, a spokeswoman for the Social Security Administration, said she was looking into the problem. Nelson is exhausted from battling with federal bureaucrats. "I can't take it no more she said.

Instead they got a free ride to the police station.

This slow, sad blues number is about a guy in love with a woman he can't have because she belongs to his best friend. It's impossible to explain how much feeling Gibb Droll put into this song but if music can cry, it cried that night during this song. The theme of the night was "new band" so likewise there was new material. The newer material was written for the power trio format and encompasses a hard-rocking edge. The solos are shorter and there is less jamming, however the music is still 100 percent heart and soul, one thing Gibb has always had. � And so the band played on, delivering a mix of songs from their two albums Dharma and Narrow Mouth Jar. Of these, the crowd favorites seemed to be "I'm Cryin from Dharma and "Tune" which was the release off Narrow Mouth Jar. After an hour and a half of straight music the band said good- night to the Attic. But the yelling, screaming and bottle hammering were too much for the band so they courteously re-took the stage and delivered a three- song encore including a cover of the Meters funk classic "Cissy Strut The Gibb Droll Band has record- ed a new album that is set for an early November release. It will sup- posedly contain the unreleased live material that has been heard at many of the past shows, as well as songs that were heard for the first time last Saturday. Overall the band seemed overly joyous about their situation and are eager to continue blessing audiences across the nation with their sweet sounds.
