This decision allows Demarco to receive unemployment checks totaling over $8,000, an amount which Chancellor Kakin blocked Demarco from receiving. Demarco believes his victory will help many who are in situations similar to his. "This is a very important decision because the court recognizes that faculty have employment rights just like other employees in the state Demarco said. "It demonstrates Kakin is not above the law. The constitutional rights as well as federal and state laws will be upheld for tenure fac- ulty I iniversity attorney Ben Irons says that the university plans to appeal the decision. Irons believes that Demarco won the case due to a technicality. "The university has witnesses to all of Demarco's actions. Regarding his final incident however, no one testified to the incident on behalf of the university, which is why the employment judge rued in Demarco's favor Irons said. Problems between Demarco and the university began inl994 when Demarco disrupted a meeting of the Graduate Faculty Admission Committee by shouting obscenities. Demarco was given a verbal warning. Later, he received a written rep- rimand notifying him that his actions were unprofessional. "Initially I received an oral warning.

The president of Delta Sigma Phi, Paul Kaplan, left the house on Thursday, morning and returned on Friday morning. He returned on Friday to find broken windows and doors which had been forcefully opened. Apparently, the robbers entered the fraternity house through the upstairs deck in the back of the house. After entering the house, Kaplan found that the entire house was sprayed with fire extinguishers and eggs thrown on the inside and outside of the house. The police fingerprinted the house; however, that proved very difficult because of the fire extinguisher residue all over the house. "All the doors were kicked in and someone took the two fire extinguishers and sprayed all the soot all over the place said Scott Rose, house manager of Delta Sigma Phi. All the vandalism and theft was done to t Delta Sigma Phi house was robbed and vandalized on Thanksgiving.

Among the items stolen from the rooms were a stereo, rwo guitars, two computers, clothing, and a credit card wallet. "The police suggest that it was the work of another fraternity said Mustafa Rashid, Delta Sigma Phi secretary. Rose feels differently. "I do not think it was the work of anoth- er fraternity because they would have stolen fraternity stuff, not personal items he said. "We are installing an alarm system to pre- vent future break-ins and vandalism to our home and fraternity house Kaplan said. ?V AIDS Awareness Week raises community consciousness PICASO sponsored a candkligfitwalk Car a Davis S.TAFE WKITKR Pitt County AIDS Service Organization (PICASO) spon- sored a candlelight walk to cele- brate the 11th annual World AIDS Day. The vigil was held at 6 p.m. on Tuesday night. The march began at Town Commons and ended at the Percolator on Fifth street where a reception was held later. People around the world observe World AIDS Day to focus attention and provoke dis- cussion on current issues involv- ing AIDS. 'The issues include transmission, symptoms and gen- eral information about the drastic rate of infection occurring around the world today. Over 30 million people world- wide arc infected with AIDS with 90 percent of infections occurring in underdeveloped or developing countries. Infection rates arc occurring at a rate of approximate- ly 16,000 people per day across the globe. Last year, transmission rates throughout North eastern North Carolina increased by 50 percent from eight Carolina alone fell by seven percent, while in just the eastern years previous. part of the state the occurrence of the disease was increased by "50 percent of all cases of AIDS occur in people less than seven percent.

Fastern North Carolina has been hit hardest by the disease. Pitt county ranks fifth out of the 1(H) reported counties in the state that have the highest annual rate of AIDS. It is estimated that by the year 2000, between 38 and 108 million people will be infected with IIIY. Worldwide, two women ate infected with HIV every minute and one woman dies every rwo min- utes as a result of the disease. In North Carolina, Pitt county particularly, males have conrracted over 75 percent of cases. Of these cases over 80 percent were found in African Americans. Barry Flmore, outreach coordinator for PICA- SO, said it appears that eastern North Carolina res- idents have many misconceptions about AIDS. "I believe in eastern North Carolina people still believe it's an urban phenomenon. They feel since they don't live in a big city they don't have to worry about it Flmor said.

Since 1992, the ECU School of Medicine has been conducting teleme)1- cinc consultations. To date the program has completed 3,000 consultations in 34 differ- ent specialities of medicine through its REACH-TV network at 12 clinical sites. The technical team at ECU integrated advanced telecommunication technologies into a uniform network which has become the most flexible telemedicine network in the country. Any site on any network can be connected to the four distance learning rooms spread around campus or the four custom telemedicine suites. "Technology is increasing the access as well as the quality of health care in North Carolina said Lori Maiolo, training center coordinator.

What changes would you make if you were Coach Eakin instead of Chancellor Eakin? I believe the Pirates, including players and coaches, performed admirably this season. While a bowf appearance doesn't seem likely, I thought the season was encouraging for this year and for the future. Two games come to mind as having particularly unhap- py outcomes. One is the Alabama game, in which we played well and could have won. The other is the Houston game in which Murphy's law seemingly applied on every occasion. So if you were Coach Eakin, how would you have changed the outcome? ECU is very fortunate that nei- ther 1 nor many other fans are coaches. The majority of our editorial board felt the Sonic Plaza was not the best use erf money and wonder why it was a priority. Are you pleased with the outcome and con- fident with the choice of this as a priority? What your editorial board may not understand is that thb came about because of a law passed by the general assembly which required a certain amount of money to be spent on ait for public buildings. That law is no longer in. place. The North Carolina Arts Council helped select the artist, Chris Janney. We decided to pick him because his public art is art that involves people. They can interact with it. I think he has delivered a wonderful piece of art for ECU. Pve had the pleasure on many occasions of watching people interact and be playful and mysti- fied. I think it has added a wonder- ful dimension to our campus. I wish the general assembly would restore the public art component At TEC we have heard a lot of grumbling from students who feel they do not have a voice They complain to us about the Pepsi contract, about their ATM provider changing, and about fee increases.

The pres- ident of SGA sits as a member of the Board of Trustees. Thursday, See stow far details Telemed continued from page I health care providers learn how to establish a remote health care delivery system in their communi- ty. Since access to this care is uni- versal, health care providers from throughout the world come to the Center to leam how to implement a system covering hundreds of miles. The attendees learn everything from how a physician conducts a telemedicine consultation to how to fill out the patient chart and file for insurance reimbursement. "This is an excellent accom- plishment, it recognizes a lot of work done so far for telemedicine. We can now use this designation to further health care in North Carolina said Dr. James Hallock, vice chancellor for health sciences and dean of the medical school. Demarco continued from page I his teaching abilities into question. After the meeting, Demarco allegedly shoved Shine into a wall when Shine accidentally brushed against him. These events, along with others, were among the charges which ECU and Chancellor Eakin used as cause for the decision to dismiss Demarco. Demarco continues to fight the charges brought against him after he was discharged in April 1998. Demarco recently filed a suit against ECU for disability discrimi- nation. He believes that his multi- ple sclerosis condition is causing the problems which have surfaced in the past few years. ECU still plans to stand behind the decision to appeal the employ- ment judges decision. "Demarco was voted down by the Board of Trustees Irons said He commit- ted setious acts of misconduct, which led to his discharge However, Demarco is still fight- ing to get his job back and plans on staying in the area. His attorney, Al McSurely, believes that Demarco could start his own private practice. "His reputation in this field is so good. It is ironic that the university calls him a nut case. He is a pretty famous children's' clinician who helps diagnose children with Attention Deficit Disorder and many other brain disorders. " McSurely has utmost confi- dence that justice will be given to Demarco "We will eventually win, no question, it is certain " McSurely said. It is a real tragedy that this process has continued on so long to get to this point AIDS continued from page I 25 years of age said David Satcher, U.S. surgeon general. Satcher, who recently spoke at a conference in Geneva, estimated that 40,000 to 80,000 people in the U.S. become infected each year. World AIDS Day (WAD) origi- nated in the United Kingdom by the WAD Project at the Health Education Authority and the National AIDS Trust. WAD is funded by the Department of Health, a supporter of World AIDS Day across the world. The purpose of World AIDS bay is to raise funds for HIVAIDS projects and to support national and international efforts to combat the disease. It raises awareness about HIVAIDS with the general public and is used to carry mes- sages of prevention into communi- ties across the nation and to improve care for those who are infected with HIV. World AIDS Day was set up to help people remember the more than 400,000 Americans who have died as a result of AIDS and the 1 million Americans and 30 million people around the world who are currently infected with the disease. ECU has been working in con- junction with PICASO and the Health Department in ways to help spread the word that these statistics can be ptevented. The University Health Center has pro- moted poster competitions dealing with AIDS along with administer- ing free HIV screening tests. Ribbons and safe sex kits have been offered around campus. "Some students have been embarrassed by the distribution of condoms and others have not taken them saying that they have chosen abstinence said Beth Credle, graduate assistant. "At least stu- dents are being honest about their relationships Credle is among the many who have worked to advertise the sig- nificance of the week's festivities. Other events include participat- ing in helping ECU create a panel for the AIDS Quilt, a symbol of the world's recognition of the disease. Credle feels that young people in general still have much to learn about the disease. "Many college students partici- pate in sexual behaviors which put them at high risk for HIV transmis- sion. It is important for students who feel invincible or immune to getting HIV to realize that the virus does not discriminate said Credle.

SGA discusses increase in tuition Members fanlight campus benifits SlISANNE MlLENKEVICH STAFF WHITER The Student Government Association (SGA) met Monday to discuss the proposed increase to student tuition that would con- tribute to the improvement of the Student Union, Student Health Center, Mendenhall, technology and Transit. Student Union President Christine Edwards asked for an extra $5.50 per student to provide ECU with more entertainment, but only received a $4.50 increase. Edwards said the Student Union wants to provide better and more diverse entertainment for students, but entertainment cost is continu- ously increasing. Jim Stern discussed the need for more leadership programs and lec- tures. The money will be divided so that Student Union receives $1.50, Leadership Development will receive $2, and Minority Student Affairs will receive $1. Director of the Student Health Center, Kay Wilkerson, asked for an $8 increase for personnel, operat- ing needs and for a sports medicine clinic for non-varsity athletes. The health program was only awarded $7 so it will be unable to begin the new sports medicine clinic. "I am disappointed that the new program will be cut Wilkerson said. Director of University Unions, Bill Clutter, asked for and received $7 for Mendenhall, which is the same amount of money that was given to the facility last year. The money will be used to update the bowling center with automatic scoring, to improve the lounge and to provide social events ILVER BULLETo, "A Touch OfClass:r(y fVX0 756-6278 Located 5 miles west of Greenville on 264 Alt.

"Wear a condom "Practice safe sex "Abstinence is the answer and "Know your partner" are the catch-phrases of our college experience. But how often do we stop to consider just how risky our behavior continues to be? Yes, we all know that AIDS is deadly and incurable. But how many of us actually take the time to keep ourselves from getting infected? It's easy to pretend that AIDS is a disease that only promiscuous people get, or that "just this once" we can engage in risky behavior and not contract the disease. But AIDS is present now, on our campus. Ladies, that guy you were scoping at the Elbow? He may have AIDS, and he may not even know it. He can look harmless enough, and he may be a nice guy, .but inside his body the AIDS virus is slowly taking over. Guys, your new girlfriend may not be all she seems. Don't be embarrassed to ask her abot t her sexual history. If she refuses to discuss it, she may have her own doubts about infection. But it's not enough to discuss sexual history with your partner. If you have any doubt about your partner's honesty, get the facts, and get them in writing. Abstinence is becoming extremely popular way to avoid STDs altogether. Not surprisingly, it's 100 percent effective. Don't feel like you have to engage in sex to have a real relationship. If you use drugs intravenously, please remember that sterile needles are very important. AIDS microbes can live in the smallest amounts of blood. Just because you don't shoot up heroin does not mean that you can use someone else's needle, even for insulin, without great risk. Keep your eyes open. Protect your safety at all costs. Be aggressive when defending your right to know about your partner's sexual history. Stand by your decision to be abstinent, if you've made one. Only you can be responsible for your own well-being. It may be embarrassing to talk about sex or to end an encounter because you're in doubt of your partner, but it beats being dead. OPINION Columnist Marvelle Sullivan Relationships make college hard Relationships are just one of the few truly perplexing and continual avenues of life. Dating, relationships and all of the mysteries that the opposite sex perpetuates are a prominent facet of the average college student's life. This facet is usually extremely time consuming and takes an unusual precedent over the other more important and long term aspects of life such as tests, classes, jobs, bills, families, etc. For some reason, guys, girls and their respective dating patterns can create more undue stress and trauma than any 10-page paper assignment could ever aspire to cause. Relationships are just one of the few truly perplexing and continual avenues of life. The college dating scene produces four basic categories of relationships. These categories are not mutually exclusive, which further adds to the complexity and perhaps deluded enjoyment of the whole grand scheme. The first category belongs to the "psycho" relationship. This type is plagued by a series of confusing and self-perpetuating events. It most often occurs when one or both parties involved are two nickels short of a dime. They maliciously fight and scheme to "get the other one back All the while, friends and family watch in utter amazement at the ridiculous episodes that transpire on a weekly, sometimes daily, basis. The scary thing about this type of relationship is that, in the beginning, everything and everyone is normal. Then, one day, someone realizes that they aren't dating the girl-or-guy-next- door, but rather a jealous, temperamental and unreasonable head case. Sadly enough, once this is realized and encapsulated in one or more unexplainably psychotic events, the point of no return has been reached and they're both hopelessly "in love" and imprisoned in a twisted, manic- depressive and never-ending situation. The second category is a very common one. This is the unbalanced relationship and is characterized by one person giving entirely more (on many levels) than the other one. This can happen for a variety of reasons and is never any one person's fault because you can't be a co- dependent by yourself. Essentially, the giver is either blind or in total denial that the other person is obviously not the perfect and unassuming creature that is reciprocating all of his or her feelings and actions. At best, it's just a misunderstanding of intentions. At worst, it is a situation where one is being taken advantage of entirely. But again, no one can blame the taker in the relationship because he or she can't unapologetically take what isn't being readily doled out to them. The third category is the "dreaded ex syndrome This is where one simple universal has to be established: no partner of six months or less can ever hope to compete with a previous partner of two or more years. This former "love of his or her life" will always be put on a pedestal even if the relationship was as volatile as a bull in a china cabinet. How can you compete with that? It's virtually impossible and the other person will probably come back to haunt the relationship time and time again reeking utter havoc. It's just one of those things. The fourth type is the good and healthy relationship. This occurs when two well-adjusted people meet, connect and love every minute of it. The new found loved one can make bad days good; the world just doesn't seem so bad after all. Although it doesn't happen very frequently, when it does it is a very fulfilling experience indeed. Everything is normal, methodical, happybut what fun is that? Since it is so difficult to put things in proper perspective and hence take relationships and what they entail in stride, it is imperative to only be involved in what makes you completely happy. If one has to constantly strive and worry to maintain something that is essentially dysfunctional, then maybe that should be some sort of hint. In college, individuals change at rapid rates. The person you know one month may hot be the same person the next. That is why evaluations are a necessity. No one should have to settle. If you do, inevitably you'll end up unhappy and resentful of the person who held you back. Nice thought, huh? College should be an enjoyable time of exploration on many levels. Relationships , can either perpetuate or impede this process. Wasting time on someone who is just a distraction hurts both parties in the end. It boils down to making a commanding decision about your life and its direction. So, live life and do what it takes to make yourself content and fulfilled because at the end of the dav-esaW is what counts the most.

Ain't it a special time of year? The worst part of the whole show is the really cheesy staged music performances.

OPINION Columnist Bntt Honeycutt People are slobs in public places The bottom line here is that if you're gonna be gross, do it in your own house. Have you ever been to the movies for a nine o'clock show, right after everyone has left from the seven o'clock show, and waded through the crunchy abyss of spilled popcorn, dropped drink cups and scattered Goobers? Have you taken your seat only to realize, twenty minutes later when you need to go potty, that you've put your hiney in a wad of grape Bubbalicious? Have you cursed the very mothers of these fiends who don't have enough respect for humanity to clean up after themselves? I have. Do you ride down a scenic North Carolina back road, admire the foliage as it changes colors, and find yourself trying desperately to overlook the MacDonald's bags, Mello Yello bottles and dirty diapers lining the roads? Do you wonder what portion of the brain is missing in the people who have the audacity to assume that it is their right to spread their filth wherever they go? So why do people do this crap? They go into restaurants (usually around closing time) and pour ketchup on the tables. They slosh food onto the floor. They do hideous things in the bathrooms. And then they leave, feeling as if they have "conquered" the place. I hate them. It is not difficult to be a clean human being in public places. If your house is disgusting, nobody really cares. You are the only one living in your nastincss. But when you spread it around, we all have to live in it. So stop it. It's so easy to flush a toilet, even in a bar or club- I know this is a totally new concept for some of you, but these places do have working toilets. You don't need a degree in engineering to figure out the the handle goes down and poof! All gone. It's really easy to put your trash in the trash can. It goes right through the little slot at the top. You can really see the evil dirty people coming. They have a certain look in their eyes. It says "Yes, I'm evil and dirty. And I'm gonna leave all of my evil dirt here for you to sit in. Ha ha ha ha maniacal laughter I think that I'm going to start my own personal crusade against these monsters. Whenever I see them leaving piles of filth in movie theaters, in restaurants, on the side of the road, in a bar, or anywhere, I will follow them home and urinate on their carpet. That would make us just about even, don't you think? I mean, if they feel they have the right to invade my space and make it nasty, then don't I have the right to do the same? The bottom line here is that if you're gonna be gross, do it in your own house. Otherwise I'll be forced to release the fury of my bladder upon your rug, and nobody wants that. Trust me. Wri?e a.

Although sometimes overlooked, the ECU Marching Pirates who perform at all football games are an important part of the university and contribute much to school pride. While most fans just go to the home ! football games, the almost two hundred I person band has to travel around with the team to support them at their away games. At every game held at Dowdy- Ficklen Stadium, the band performs a pregame show. "The Star-Spangled Banner" is typically part of the pregame show. "Pregame performances is when we try to play something that fires up the crowd said Katie Blizzard, who plays the piccolo for the band. During the half-time show, the Marching Pirates take to the field. This time they play a piece that will show off the band's full talent. Some performances from the past season have included selec- tions from Earth, Wind, and Fire, and a rendition of "The Time Warp" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show for Halloween. These selections are usually chosen by the Christopher Knighten, the band director, though suggestions are taken from fans. The band then plays a number until the crowd is fully excited. The practice schedule for the band is rigorous. They practice every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday under the direc- tion of their sixth year band director. Most practices last from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. At these practices, the Marching Pirates go over all aspects of their performances, from playing their instruments to walking in formation. "We usually start off with 'fundamen- tals one percussion member said. "This is when we practice the basics, including breaking into sections and our block for- mations Percussion warms up on the field. FILE PHOTO After fifteen minutes of stretching and drill practice, the actual playing takes place. First the band breaks off into sec- tions, which include winds, brass and per- cussion. The section leaders then take over. The squad and section leaders are stu- dents who excel in their particular instru- mental section.They have the responsibil- ities of being in charge of spot placement and knowing where everyone should be marching. The only difference between the two is that the squad leaders have more people under their direction. "There has been really good student leadership this "year said Christopher Knighten, the band director. This semester the Marching Pirates had the chance to go to Charlotte where they played in a nationally televised Carolina Panthers game. "We play many exhibition shows at high school each year Knighten said. "This is a chance for the band to provide outreach and recruitment for the universi- ty" Students who want to join the band must arrive at school early in the year. During the summer, members come to campus early to practice. "It is a chance to meet people and to work early Blizzard said. Students who spend their time in band only receive one semester hour of credit. Students who miss three practices or a performance have the potential to be asked to leave the band. Anyone who is interested in marching in the band, but does not want to play an instrument should contact a band member. When a member is not able to play, someone is still needed to march in formations. The band member will show you how to march, where you are supposed to walk, and how to pretend to play their instrument. Local bands perform for Pirate fans.

Aragi, of Pound Ridge, N.Y was charged with misdemeanor breach of peace, police said. He was released at the scene on his own recognizance and scheduled to appear in state Superior Court in Stamford Dec. 4. He faces up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted. Woman Sentenced for Penis Burning HANOI, Vietnam (AP) ? A woman has been sentenced to two years in jail for burning her hus- band's penis because she suspect- ed him of having a mistress, a local court official said Monday. Nguyen Thi Thu Lan, 40, was convicted during a one-day trial Nov. 12. The incident took place in April in the central coastal province of Binh Thuan. Lan, using cotton soaked with gasoline, burned her husband after he came home drunk, the official said. Her husband suffered 56 per- cent burns on his privates and has paid some 20 million dong (dlrs 1,500) for medical treatment, a huge amount in a country where the annual per capita income is only about dlrs 340.

There has been cremation jewelry and designer caskets with themes that included even golf ? a "Fairway to Heaven" motif. Now funeral homes are begin- ning to collect DNA samples from the dead ? for a fee ? to preserve a genetic record that could provide medical information. While experts are divided on the usefulness of the data, some think theservice will be a strong seller for the 21,000 funeral homes in the UnitedStates. "I imagine every funeral home will have this service in the future saidTerry Travis, funeral director of Riddle Funeral Home in Vermilion, about 30 miles (50 kilometers) west of Cleveland. Travis signed up earlier this month for the service offered by Cincinnati-based DNA Analysis Inc. For dlrs 350, he will snip a bit of hair, draw some blood and run a swab inside a deceased person's mouth to get a DNA sample. The samples are packaged in sterile kits and sent to a lab where molecular biologist Paul Harding extracts the DNA He then sends the family a confidential genetic fingerprint of the deceased. The company stores the DNA samples for 25 years at minds 80 degrees Fahrenheit, in case there is a need for analysis. Only next-of- kin can have the samples tested, for an extra fee. GeneLink Inc. has been offering a similar service since 19 through hundreds of funeral homes and cemeteries in 20 states, said John DePhillipo, president of the company based in Margate, New Jersey. "If you trust your loved one to a funeral home and have been work- ing with them for generations, then this might be the right profession to be offering this type of service said Stephen Gehlcrt, executive director of the Ohio Funeral Directors Association. "The jury is going to be the consumer With cremation jewelry, the question was whether to store remains of a loved one in a locket or pendant. DNA storage is a much more profound issue, full of ethical questions. At the urging of her seven chil- dren, Kathleen Hanrahan, 79, of suburban Cincinnati had DNA samples taken of her husband, Bert, when he died in October. Bcrnie Naegele, who owns a funer- al home in Cincinnati and is co- founder of DNA Analysis, per- formed the procedure.

ECU recorded two victories during the Thanksgiving holidays to bring their record to 3-1 before they came up short in a 68-67 loss to Appalachian State on Monday. The Pirates' first victory during the hol- idays came on Nov. 24, when forward Evaidas Joeys had 17 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Pirates to a 75-69 win over the Ragin' Cajuns of Southwestern Louisiana. His performance entitled Joeys CAA Player-of-thelkVeek after he proved to be the team's leading scorer and rebounder. ECU shot 58 percent and dominated on defense in the second half to overcome a nine point haiftime deficit. The Pirates didn't have too much time for their Thanksgiving turkey when they had to travel to Lvnchburg, Va. to defeat Liberty on Nov. 28. Quincy Hall had 18 points, five of them in a crucial run in the second half, as ECU scored 52 second half points Saturday night to seal the victory over Liberty 80-56, respectively.

"We did a lot of good things even though we got a loss junior guard Garrett Blackwelder said. "We played hard against a good team and now we need to focus on our conference opener Saturday against American Blackwelder led the Pirates with 13 points in the close loss. "This was a tough loss, but one game won't make or break our season head coach Joe Dooley said. "We need to learn from this game and be prepared for our first conference game against American this weekend The Pirates are hoping to avenge last seasons' 76-63 loss to American by trying to contain senior guard Matt Brown and senior forward Dave Small. "If wc can control Brown and Small and penetrate their defense we should be just fine Dooley said. Additionally, the Pirates had to forfeit their 7 foot tall center Alphons van lerland for their last two games due to an injury.

PHOTO BY SARAH CHRISTIE Pirates come away on 4-0 winning streak Eric Couch senior w?ITER The ECU Women's basketball team picked up three straight wins against UNC Charlotte, Fairfield and Wake Forest over the holiday break to start out the season with a record of 4-0. The streak started on Nov. 24 when head coach Dee Gibson led the Pirates to her alma mater and defeated UNCC by a score of 85- 81. Jen Mortez scored a team-high 24 points and connected for five three-pointers. Additionally, junior point guard Waynetta V'eney chipped in her own 22 points.

Veney led ECU in offense with 19 points and added nine assists. Also, freshman Teana McKiver added 15 points in the paint while Danielle Melvin, scoring 14 points, ended all hope for Fairfield by sinking two free throws with four seconds left on the clock. With this win, the Pirates would advance to face the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest for the championship game. In this game Veney led ECU past Wake Forest 78-70 by scoring 26 points and being awarded the tournament MVP. "It was an honor Veney said. Veney turned her ankle in the first minute of the WFTJ game and sat out only four minutes. "It was a bad sprain Veney said. Despite being injured, Veney toughed it out and continued to go on strong. The Pirates took a half- time lead of 37-26 into the locker room and never trailed after that. Jen Mortez and Teana McKiver were named to the All- Tournament Team to join Veney's honors. Up next for ECU's women will be another tournament. The Pirates will travel to Davidson to participate in the Chesebrough- Ponds Roundball Invitational from Dec. 5-6.

On Saturday, Gaffey destroyed the 1,650 yard freestyle record of 15:48.07 with a time of 15:39.35. The old record was set by Chema Larranaga in 1984. Gaffey also broke the 1,000 yard freestyle record by three seconds with a time of 9:28.42. The old mark was also held by Larranaga in 1984. Gaffey, who is originally from Orlando, Fl. and a JUCO transfer from Broward (Fl.) Community College, is his first year swimming for the Pirates. The ECU men's 800 yard relay team (Gaffey, Claes Lindgren, Mike Julian and Matt Jabs) placed sixth with a time of 6:52.61. With these times, the men are now ranked nationally.

FOR A ttm MMI mm I Thunday, December 3, 1998 snorts Thi East Carolinian IV Rugby team to continue winning ways Four Pirates in All-Conference Club prepares for spring season S T K P H F. N S C II R A l l SKN IUK U I IK H Few teams at ECU have the suc- cess and winning tradition of the Rugby Club. Since its inception in 1975, the club has never had a los- - ing season. They kept that impres- sive streak alive with an 8-5-1 cam- paign this fall. "We had an outstanding season despite all the problems we had said Rugby Club president Brad E'almer. "We had a new coach, we graduated eight of our 15 starters from last season and wc had a lot of injuries. It was a cardiac year for us The season's highlight was the trip to the State Championship in early November. The Pirates have made it to the finals in every State Championship Tournament in which they have competed, so when ECU faced a team from UNC-Chapel Hill in the finals of this year's tournament, it was noth- ing new. The Pirates eventually lost to Chapel Hill by seven points. The Pirates' goal for next semester is to improve on their fall record as the stakes get higher in the spring. "We are preparing for the Spring now. We will play in the Southeastern . Collegiate Conference this spring. We will play for a birth in the National Rugby Tournament run by USA Rugby Palmer said. The Pirates will field a squad this spring that bares little resem- blance to the team that finished second in the state in the fall. The Pirates will be without many of their more experienced contribu- tors. "We look good. We are losing the other seven starters from last year, but we're returning two starters from this year. Our rookies played a lot this year too. But only time will tell how good we are because our only problem is a lack of experience Palmer said. The Pirates begin their spring campaign with practices that will start when classes resume. The team will face their first test when the take on N.C. State in Greenville on Jan. 30. Frisbee continued from page 10 day until 7 p.m. with some teams expecting to compete in three or more games. The action continues on Sunday at 11 a.m. when single elimination contests will determine the 'l)H I'ltimax Tournament Champion. Teams are competing for a first place trophy and the respect of fellow clubs. The Irates, the ECU men's team, and the Helios, the ECU women's team, are ready to com- pete. Both teams have high expec- tations to impress the hometown crowd and succeed in the tourna- ment. "Although wc have a young team, we have been playing well all year said Candace Voight, the women's team president. "We won a big tournament in Athens, Ga. which has made us want to practice and work hard The ECU men's team is also having a successful year and has participated in three tournaments already this fall. The Irates defeat- ed rivals UNC, N.C. State, and UNC-Wilmington to become the number one ranked frisbee team in the state last season. "We finished number one in the state, but were unable to go to nationals said ECU senior Jeff Wilhelm, the men's team presi- dent. "We are looking to be nation- al competitors again this season as well Ultimate teams from Raleigh, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C and as far as Canada are participat- ing in this year's Ultimax tourna- ment. In total, 37 teams will be rep- resented; 25 on the men's side and 12 on the women's. This tourna- ment will also include non-colle- giate club teams, college teams, and alumni clubs all competing against one another in high-flying athletic contests. "This tournament will be show casing the best talent in ultimate frisbee from around the country Wilhelm said. "These athletes are very talented and in excellent shape New ultimate frisbee fields located at the Blunt recreational facility are ready for action, and players are hoping for good weather and a large crowd. Admission to the tournament is free and seating is available for the championship rounds on Sunday. "Ultimate frisbee is an up and coming sport that is exciting and fast paced said Britt Thomas, an Irate team member and ECU grad- uate student.

(AP) Four East Carolina players made the All- Conference USA first team, announced Tuesday. The team was selected by the league's eight head coaches. Pirate center Danny Moore made the team for the second straight season and was the lone ECU offensive lineman chosen. Defensive linemen Rod Coleman and Travis Darden also made the team. Coleman made the second team last season. Linebacker Jeff Kerr, who missed three games due to injury but still led the team in tackles (115), also made the first team. Tight end Buck Collins, safety Kelvin Suggs and punter Andrew Bayes were selected to the C-USA's second team. Quarterback David Garrard and linebacker Pernell Griffin made the league's All-Freshman team. Garrard passed for school freshman records 2,091 yards and 14 touchdowns. Griffin started all 11 games this sea- son and led all conference fresh- men with 99 tackles. Tyson's charges end dubiously ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) Mike Tyson pleaded no contest Tuesday to misdemeanor assault, a decision that could return the former heavy- weight champion to prison. Although the plea to the two counts is not an admission of guilt, Tyson faces up to 20 years in prison - 10 years on each count - when he is sentenced early next year by a Maryland judge. He also could be fined up to $2,500 on each count. The charges stem from an Aug. 31 traffic accident in Montgomery County, Md involving Tyson's wife, Monica. Tyson was accused of kicking and punching two motorists after the accident. "You understand that this plea could affect your parole Judge Steven Johnson told Tyson before accepting his plea. "I'm truly aware of that said Tyson, who was released from prison in 1995 after serving three years of six-year sentence for a 1992 rape conviction in Indiana. Tyson, who is scheduled to fight Francois Botha on Jan. 16, would not discuss his case outside court. Following the August accident, Abmielec Saucedo and Richard Hardick said Tyson attacked them. They have reached a settlement with Tyson to avoid a civil suit. Kemp said Saucedo and Hardick are prepared to testify at sentencing that they support Tyson's no-con- test plea. "He does not admit to intention- ally striking anyone when this inci- dent occurred Kemp said. Kemp told the judge that Tyson ' became angry when neither Hardick nor Saucedo expressed concern for his wife, who was dri- ving when the accident occurred. Kemp admitted that Hardick was struck with a glancing blow and Saucedo was inadvertently kicked : as the boxer was restrained by his ! wife and bodyguard. Tyson is undergoing psychiatric treatment, one of the conditions that led to reinstatement of his box- ing license by the Nevada Athletic Commission in October. The license was revoked after he bit champion Evander Holyfield's ears during a June 1997 title bout. Basketball continued from page 10 during practice- prior to the SW Louisiana game. He is expected to stay out of the game between three to six weeks. The Charlotte Honeybees, pro- fessional dance team of the NBA's Charlotte Hornets, will be making a special appearance at Minges Coliseum on Saturday, Dec. 5, at the ECUAmerican men's basket- ball game. Besides performing dur- ing halftime and timeouts, the Honeybees will sign autographs and will be available for pho- tographs following the perfor- mance. Alto Gary, a former captain, ! coach and choreographer of the Pirates' Pure Gold Dance Team (1991-95), is now directing the ' Honeybees and made their appear- ance possible.

Dana Fuller, another freshmen, placed 10th in the 1,650 yard freestyle with a time of 17:25.78. That mark puts her third all-time at ECU. "I was extremely pleased with my performance Fuller said. "I went into the meet to do my best and was happy with where I placed The Pirates will host their first home meet of the season against Duke University. The men's swim team holds a 16-9 series advantage over the Blue Devils, including a 139-103 win last season. "The men's team Duke has an excellent team said Rich Kobe, ECU head swim coachThis should be a good match up for both teams. The women's swim team has a 13-7 advantage in the series after winning last years meet 143-92. "The girls squad for Duke is probably the best team they have ever had Kobe said.

Oicimber 3, 1998 Webber denies striking officer, using marijuana UPPER MARLBORO, Maryland (AP) Occasionally defiant but under control, Chris Webber took the stand Tuesday and denied striking a police officer and using marijuana before he was arrested on his way to a Washington Wizards practice in January. "I had to go to work. It's not the time or place Webber said when he asked if he had used drugs that day. "Not that any time is the time or place Webber is charged with second- degree assault, resisting arrest, dis- obeying an officer,rraanjaafiapos- session and several traffic-related offenses stemming from a Jan. 20 traffic stop for speeding near the Washington Beltway. The arrest was one of several off-the-court matters that prompted the Wizards to trade Webber to the Sacramento Kings in May. With testimony concluded, clos- ing arguments arc set for Wednesday morning. Prosecutors have said they will ask for jail time if Webber is convicted of the more serious charges. Webber raised his voice twice in his defense, once to say "Yes, he was" when asked if arresting Officer Raymond Kane had lied when testifying for the prosecu- tion, and again when describing the moment he was hit by pepper spray while sitting in the driver's seat of his sports utility vehicle. The arrest was one of two mari- juanarjelatcd dealings with the law this year for Webber, the National Basketball Association player who paid a fine after admitting posses- sion of marijuana found in his carry-on bag at an airport in Puerto Rico in August. Later that month, Fila, the sneaker maker, canceled its multi- million-dollar endorsement con- tract with Webber, saying he had violated a good-conduct clause.
