Third party<lb/>
exclusion angers<lb/>
activists<lb/>
Stephen Losey<lb/>
GUEST WRITER<lb/>
Two ECU students<lb/>
were among more than<lb/>
500 activists who pro-<lb/>
tested the exclusion of<lb/>
third party candidates<lb/>
from the presidential<lb/>
debates in Winston-Salem<lb/>
last Wednesday.<lb/>
Students Whit Rob-<lb/>
erson and Bert Rochelle<lb/>
marched with the protest-<lb/>
ers to the campus edge of<lb/>
Wake Forest University as<lb/>
presidential candidates Al<lb/>
Gore and George W. Hush<lb/>
debated in Wait Chapel.<lb/>
The protesters were<lb/>
met by about 75 police<lb/>
officers in full riot gear,<lb/>
including shields, gas<lb/>
masks and helmets. The<lb/>
police lined up in front of<lb/>
a gated entrance to Wake<lb/>
Forest.<lb/>
The protest was orderly<lb/>
and there were no arrests<lb/>
or property damage<lb/>
during the march.<lb/>
Roberson has also pro-<lb/>
tested April's World Trade<lb/>
Organization meeting in<lb/>
Washington, D.C. and the<lb/>
Republican National Con-<lb/>
vention in Philadelphia.<lb/>
Roberson has helped orga-<lb/>
Student activists held a<lb/>
protest outside the gates<lb/>
of Wake Forest Uniersity<lb/>
in Winston-Salem, N.C.<lb/>
last Wednesday. The<lb/>
protesters voiced their<lb/>
opposition to the<lb/>
exclusion of third party<lb/>
representation at this<lb/>
year's presidential<lb/>
debates, (photo from<lb/>
indymedia.com)<lb/>
nize rallies against alleged<lb/>
police brutality in Green-<lb/>
ville, N.C.<lb/>
"Tonight's goal is to<lb/>
raise awareness; to display-<lb/>
opposition to corporate<lb/>
two-party control Rob-<lb/>
erson said.<lb/>
Winston-Salem was<lb/>
Rochelle's first large-scale<lb/>
protest.<lb/>
"It's my civic duty<lb/>
said Rochelle when asked<lb/>
why he attended the pro-<lb/>
test.<lb/>
The march was orga-<lb/>
nized by the South Caro-<lb/>
lina Direct Action Net-<lb/>
work.<lb/>
"Without open debate<lb/>
there is no democracy<lb/>
said Direct Action<lb/>
Network representative<lb/>
Cathie Berrey about the<lb/>
purpose of the protest.<lb/>
"I think we already<lb/>
have changed people's<lb/>
minds Berrey said.<lb/>
"We've shown them they<lb/>
can have their voices<lb/>
heard, even in a closed<lb/>
debate<lb/>
Most protesters carried<lb/>
signs supporting Green<lb/>
Party candidate Ralph<lb/>
Nader. Others advocated<lb/>
the Communist, Reform,<lb/>
Libertarian and Natural<lb/>
law parties.<lb/>
On Oct. 3, Nader<lb/>
attempted to enter the<lb/>
audience of the Boston<lb/>
presidential debate. His<lb/>
ticket was confiscated and<lb/>
he was turned away at the<lb/>
door.<lb/>
"1 don't think that it<lb/>
should u?t be open to<lb/>
Nader Berrey said. "It<lb/>
should be open to all eligi-<lb/>
ble candidates. If it's open<lb/>
to Republicans or Demo-<lb/>
crats, why not Greens or<lb/>
Libertarians or Commu-<lb/>
nists?"<lb/>
the marchers gathered<lb/>
at nearby Polo Park and<lb/>
listened to speakers. The<lb/>
rally included a show sati-<lb/>
rizing Bush and Gore with<lb/>
20-foot tall puppets. One<lb/>
puppet showed a politi-<lb/>
cian with two heads-one<lb/>
Bush and one Gore.<lb/>
Though police told<lb/>
the organizers marchers<lb/>
would be arrested if they<lb/>
stepped in the street,<lb/>
many did so anyway. The<lb/>
march took up two of<lb/>
three lanes. Police drove<lb/>
by to keep marchers from<lb/>
stepping in the third<lb/>
lane, but did not arrest<lb/>
anyone.<lb/>
Marchers shouted slo-<lb/>
gans such as "Whose<lb/>
streets? Our streets and<lb/>
"This is what democracy<lb/>
looks like A house<lb/>
with Bush's name spelled<lb/>
out in Christmas lights<lb/>
was booed as marchers<lb/>
passed.<lb/>

ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR<lb/>
Thomas Younce, assistant chief of FCU police<lb/>
department (ECUPD) left the force yesterday, Oct. 16.<lb/>
Younce, who has been a part of the F.CU community for<lb/>
the past five years, has served the university through<lb/>
events ranging from minimal campus crimes to national<lb/>
events such as Hurricane Floyd. TEC recently sat down<lb/>
with Younce to find out more about his decision to<lb/>
leave and where he plans to go from here.<lb/>
TEC: How long have you been at ECU?<lb/>
Younce: I am in my fifth year now, so about<lb/>
four-and-a-half years.<lb/>
TEC: Are you retiring?<lb/>
Younce: No, I am just moving on to another<lb/>
position. I hate to leave ECU but this is just an excellent<lb/>
A farewell reception for ECU Assistant Police Chief, Tom<lb/>
Younce, was held yesterday afternoon in the Ward Sports<lb/>
Medicine Building. Here, Willie Lee, director of University<lb/>
Printing and Graphics wishes Younce great success at<lb/>
his new position as director of Public Safety at NCSU. A<lb/>
replacement for Younce will be chosen later this year (photo<lb/>
by Laura Benedict)<lb/>
opportunity for me professionally to move from an<lb/>
assistant director position to a director position at<lb/>
North Carolina State University (NCSU).<lb/>
TEC: Do you feel you accomplished a lot at ECU?<lb/>
Younce: Yes, I think we accomplished a lot here<lb/>
and a lot has been accomplished of course with Chief<lb/>
Theresa Crocker. A lot of credit goes to what she has<lb/>
been able to do in the years she has been here. It has<lb/>
been a pleasure to work for her, and of course the<lb/>
flood last year was a traumatic event for everybody.<lb/>
Fortunately, the university came through and pulled<lb/>
together a routine between staff and students to do<lb/>
what we could. We were successful yielding a couple of<lb/>
governor's awards in the last couple years. I am proud<lb/>
to have been a part of the ECU's police department.<lb/>
TEC: What would you say was the biggest event that<lb/>
you are going to remember here at ECU?<lb/>
Younce: Well, it has to be the flood. Of course it<lb/>
seemed like once I came here it was Hurricane Floyd,<lb/>
Hurricane Fran and Hurricane Bertha. So the weather<lb/>
has to be a big picture of it. I have been fortunate<lb/>
to be in the faculty and with the criminal justice<lb/>
program.<lb/>
It has been a real pleasure to work with the staff<lb/>
and students and teaching. This is especially working<lb/>
with the athletic programs. I think it is a great athletic<lb/>
program. They got a lot of school spirit. A lot of big<lb/>
things are going to happen in the future and I am<lb/>
just proud to be a part of that. A lot of good things<lb/>
are going to come into the police department in the<lb/>
future. There are some expansion plans in the facility.<lb/>
We are in the process of putting in laptops in all the<lb/>
police cars. Doing some innovating things with the<lb/>
electronics, we got a new communication center that<lb/>
is coming on-line now.<lb/>
TEC: Are you going to miss that?<lb/>
Younce: I am going to miss that. 1 really am. 1<lb/>
am going to miss the people. There are a lot of good<lb/>
people in the police department and the university<lb/>
level. I am really going to miss everybody. It was a<lb/>
lot of fun.<lb/>
TEC: Are you going to take what you learned here and<lb/>
implement it at NCSU?<lb/>
Younce: Well, yes. We have done a lot of good<lb/>
things here, especially with the liaisons, hitting officers<lb/>
in the residence halls, bike patrols. 1 plan to bring a lot<lb/>
of those ideas to NCSU. I have a lot of experience here<lb/>
and a good teacher, Chief Crocker.<lb/>
Of course it is a larger university, about 10,000<lb/>
more students and a larger police department and it is<lb/>
right smack dab in the center in Raleigh. I am looking<lb/>
to the challenge of going there, there have been some<lb/>
serious problems with the administration in the police<lb/>
Decked out for<lb/>
the debate<lb/>
Students and supporters gathered in the Coliseum<lb/>
Annex at Wake Forest University for the second<lb/>
presidential debate this year. The event was<lb/>
sponsored by the North Carolina Democratic Party.<lb/>

president and other state candidates, (photos by<lb/>

Adolescent rebellion helps mask mental disorders<lb/>
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.<lb/>
(TMS Campus)-In sixth grade,<lb/>
when Rebekah Preston told her<lb/>
mom she was depressed, her mother<lb/>
told her to drink a cup of hot tea<lb/>
and read "Calvin and Hobbes<lb/>
Rebekah's favorite comic book. It<lb/>
didn't help.<lb/>
By eighth grade, thoughts of<lb/>
suicide filled Rebekah's head. She<lb/>
made up wills. She held razor blades<lb/>
and X-Acto knives over her wrists.<lb/>
By high school, she ran away<lb/>
from home for days at a time, she<lb/>
started abusing alcohol and her<lb/>
behavior got more erratic and out<lb/>
of control.<lb/>
A relative told Monica Preston,<lb/>
Rebekah's mother, to throw her and<lb/>
her stuff out on the street until she<lb/>
straightened up. A church counselor<lb/>
said the problems stemmed from<lb/>
her relationship with her father.<lb/>
They were wrong.<lb/>
Rebekah Preston, now 21 and<lb/>
an art student at Pikes Peak Com-<lb/>
munity College, suffers from bipolar<lb/>
disorder. She has a chemical imbal-<lb/>
ance in her brain that makes her<lb/>
oscillate between extreme moods of<lb/>
elation and severe depression, like<lb/>
many teens who suffer from mental<lb/>
illness, she went undiagnosed for<lb/>
years.<lb/>
Experts say myths about teen<lb/>
behavior and ignorance about teen<lb/>
mental health have combined to<lb/>
blind society to teen mental illness.<lb/>
Parents, convinced that moodiness,<lb/>
anti-social behavior and thoughts<lb/>
of suicide are par for the course for<lb/>
teen-agers, may overlook signs of<lb/>
serious mental illness. The delay<lb/>
could be deadly.<lb/>
Family relationships with teens<lb/>
grow strained, and teens grow up<lb/>
feeling isolated and alone. Worse,<lb/>
teens, who are more impulsive than<lb/>
adults, may be inclined to end their<lb/>
suffering through suicide.<lb/>
But experts say by becoming<lb/>
more aware of the symptoms associ-<lb/>
ated with mental illness, parents<lb/>
can tell the difference between<lb/>
normal teen angst and bigger prob-<lb/>
lems. And teens soon can be on the<lb/>
road to recover)<lb/>
"A strong parent-child relation-<lb/>
ship increases the likelihood that<lb/>
a kid will access care and feel sup-<lb/>
ported said Katherine Koselka<lb/>
Robredo, a therapist who treats<lb/>
adolescents at the Front Range<lb/>
Institute in Colorado Springs.<lb/>
Until 20 years ago, the psychia-<lb/>
try world believed children didn't<lb/>
have the mental maturity for such<lb/>
"adult" illnesses as depression or<lb/>
bipolar disorder.<lb/>
Minnesota students use wireless technology<lb/>
(TMS Campus)-When two St.<lb/>
Olaf College students found them-<lb/>
selves without high-speed Internet<lb/>
access recently because of a lousy<lb/>
dorm-room assignment, they took<lb/>
matters into their own hands.<lb/>
Lacking all-important wall jacks<lb/>
for plugging their PCs into the<lb/>
campus computer network, Tom<lb/>
Engle and Sam Evans cleverly went<lb/>
the wire-free route.Using off-the-<lb/>
shelf wireless-networking products,<lb/>
they jerry-rigged a cabie-less con-<lb/>
nection to a jack in an adjoining<lb/>
residence hall. Presto! They were<lb/>
hooked into the network alongside<lb/>
their classmates, but with data that<lb/>
reached them through thin air.<lb/>
Their experience is unusual,<lb/>
but becoming less so. Students<lb/>
at a growing number of U.S. col-<lb/>
leges, and even some K-12 schools,<lb/>
use wireless connections that let<lb/>
them tap into local servers and the<lb/>
broader Net just about anywhere,<lb/>
even outdoors, without a jack in<lb/>
sight.<lb/>
Such wireless hook-ups are<lb/>
essentially identical to the make-<lb/>
shift network the two St. Olaf<lb/>
students concocted, but school-<lb/>
approved and deployed on a far<lb/>
greater scale with pleasingly zippy<lb/>
performance.<lb/>
At Minnesota State University<lb/>
in Mankato, for instance, students<lb/>
with properly equipped laptops can<lb/>
sprawl on the grass outside public<lb/>
buildings without disconnecting<lb/>
from school servers. No wires are<lb/>
required because special transmit-<lb/>
ters scattered around campus zap<lb/>
data at high speeds through walls<lb/>
and across lawns.<lb/>
"On a nice day, we don't have<lb/>
to be cooped up" in dorm rooms<lb/>
or PC labs, says Timothy Huebsch,<lb/>
a laptop-packing junior. "We can<lb/>
check our e-mail over by the (big<lb/>
outdoor) fountain or work (on class<lb/>
assignments) in Stompers Food<lb/>
Court. We can eat 'n' surf<lb/>
University of Minnesota stu-<lb/>
dents recently gained no-wire<lb/>
access, too. Several dozen Internet-<lb/>
access kiosks deployed around<lb/>
the school's Twin Cities campuses<lb/>
double as wireless-access hubs that<lb/>
provide high-speed network con-<lb/>
nections to any compatible PCs<lb/>

department. It has caused ripples<lb/>
in the system in the way that they<lb/>
manage their money and some of<lb/>
the things that were done by the<lb/>
previous administrator, so it will be<lb/>
quite a challenge.<lb/>
TEC: Do you think that the crime<lb/>
rate is higher at NCSU?<lb/>
Younce: I have not gotten the<lb/>
chance to look at that. Of course<lb/>
that is going to be a major focus.<lb/>
The major focus of the campus<lb/>
policing here, NCSU, UNC, is to<lb/>
see that the students have a safe<lb/>
place to learn, to experience and<lb/>
to grow. A very important part of<lb/>
campus policing is to provide that<lb/>
atmosphere. I am sure that the<lb/>
center of Raleigh has that problem<lb/>
for people coming outside the<lb/>
campus into campus and it is a<lb/>
large campus and that creates a<lb/>
challenge for those police officers<lb/>
to serve that community.<lb/>
TEC: What will you remember<lb/>
most from ECU?<lb/>
Younce: Probably the people.<lb/>
Eastern North Carolina has a little<lb/>
different flavor than a lot of places.<lb/>
People are a lot friendlier and I<lb/>
think that is something that I will<lb/>
always remember. This is my first<lb/>
campus policing experience. 1 came<lb/>
in from municipal policing and fed-<lb/>
eral policing. The people here took<lb/>
me under their wings and showed<lb/>
me the ropes, the difference. There<lb/>
is a difference between campus<lb/>
police and municipal police. I have<lb/>
learned a lot about the campus<lb/>
and the academia and how to work<lb/>
in the world of academics. It is<lb/>
different.<lb/>
TEC: Do you have anything else<lb/>
you'd like to add?<lb/>
Younce: I am leaving with a lot<lb/>
of regrets but looking forward to<lb/>
the new challenge and new job. I<lb/>
am looking forward to connecting<lb/>
with the professional association<lb/>
with people here at the university.<lb/>
We are all part of the university<lb/>
system and I look forward to being<lb/>
a part of the system.<lb/>
N.C. community college instructors rank last in pay<lb/>
WILMINGTON(AP)Cape Fear<lb/>
Community College instructor<lb/>
Jason Rogers says teaching isn't<lb/>
about the pay.<lb/>
But he also has a simple answer<lb/>
when asked if he'd like to make<lb/>
more money: "You bet<lb/>
North Carolina community col-<lb/>
lege instructors are the lowest-paid<lb/>
in the Southeast.<lb/>
Rogers, who makes $31,347 a<lb/>
year, said salaries are often a topic<lb/>
of conversation.<lb/>
"Everybody thinks they are<lb/>
underpaid he said.<lb/>
Compared with 15 other states,<lb/>
North Carolina community college<lb/>
instructors are at the bottom of<lb/>
the list, with an average salary of<lb/>
$33,027, according to a report from<lb/>
the Southern Regional Education<lb/>
Board.<lb/>
10 years ago, North Carolina<lb/>
ranked 11th out of 16 states in the<lb/>
Southeast.<lb/>
lxw salaries have been "a long-<lb/>
standing problem for the system<lb/>
said Eric McKeithan, president at<lb/>
Cape Fear Community College.<lb/>
After 20 years working for the<lb/>
state community college system,<lb/>
McKeithan admits the problem has<lb/>
gotten worse.<lb/>
McKeithan said catching the<lb/>
national average would be difficult<lb/>
because recent growth has exacer-<lb/>
bated the problem.<lb/>
In 1994, Cape Fear had 70 full-<lb/>
time faculty members. Today, it has<lb/>
179. As new instructors come on<lb/>
board, the college's average salary<lb/>
declines, he said.<lb/>
That's because newer instructors<lb/>
typically have fewer years' experi-<lb/>
ence than those leaving the college,<lb/>
which means their starting salary<lb/>
is lower. But the lower starting<lb/>
pay makes it hard to find qualified<lb/>
instructors.<lb/>
"So we're starting out behind<lb/>
McKeithan said.<lb/>
A comparison of salaries high-<lb/>
lights how tough it is to compete<lb/>
in the labor market.<lb/>
The average salary for a com-<lb/>
puter support specialist is $39,320,<lb/>
and the average for a computer<lb/>
programmer is $54,070. Librarians<lb/>
make an average $36,210, while<lb/>
registered nurses make an average<lb/>
salary of $41,650. The average<lb/>
salary for North Carolina public<lb/>
school teachers, $36,098, is also<lb/>
higher than the average salary for<lb/>
community college instructors of<lb/>
$33,027.<lb/>
While faculty salaries at North<lb/>
Carolina community colleges are<lb/>
the lowest in the Southeast, the<lb/>
average salary at North Carolina's<lb/>
four-year colleges and universities<lb/>
ranks fourth in the region.<lb/>
The good news for instructors<lb/>
is that state officials are taking note<lb/>
of the problem. State community<lb/>
college administrators are calling<lb/>
for a substantial raise next year,<lb/>
and lawmakers admit the salaries<lb/>
need to be increased.<lb/>
During a recent forum at Cape<lb/>
Fear, state Sen. Patrick Ballantine,<lb/>
R-New Hanover, said improving<lb/>
faculty salaries needs to be a priority<lb/>
for the legislature.<lb/>

By including only two<lb/>
of the candidates in<lb/>
the debate, American<lb/>
citizens are the ones<lb/>
who are losing out.<lb/>
just because the suits<lb/>
of Washington, D.C. are<lb/>
almost entirely made up<lb/>
of Republicans and Dem-<lb/>
ocrats does not mean<lb/>
that they are the only<lb/>
ones with the answers to<lb/>
America's problems.<lb/>
OUR VIEW<lb/>
The Republican candidate, Gov. George W. Bush and the Democratic<lb/>
candidate, Vice President Al Gore squared off during the past two televised<lb/>
political debates this month. Unfortunately for viewers of the debates, not all<lb/>
of the party representatives are invited to participate.<lb/>
Libertarian candidate Harry Browne, Green Party candidate Ralph Nader,<lb/>
and Reform Party candidate Pat Buchanan are all left standing out in the cold.<lb/>
Why were these candidates not included? Aren't their political views valid to<lb/>
the 2000 presidential election?<lb/>
One would think that after Ross Perot was included in the the 1992 election<lb/>
debates, the question of the participation of an Independent candidate should<lb/>
be answered. Because Perot made such an impact in his inclusion, the now-<lb/>
threatened Democrats and Republicans wish to keep things as they have always<lb/>
been. The election of Independent Jessi "The Body" Ventura as governor of<lb/>
Minnesota should further prove the power of the Independents.<lb/>
By including only two of the candidates in the debate, American citizens<lb/>
are the ones who are losing out. ust because the suits of Washington, D.C. are<lb/>
almost entirely made up of Republicans and Democrats does not mean that<lb/>
they are the only ones with the answers to America's problems.<lb/>
The Independents are most often brushed to the side in media coverage<lb/>
leaving them scrambling for exposure. One of the Independent candidates<lb/>
reportedly answered debate questions online while the first debate was in<lb/>
progress. An equal opportunity to participate in the debates can bring the se<lb/>
candidates' fresh ideas to light. )ust because their parties have not existed as<lb/>
long as the two major parties does not mean they should be ignored. Why<lb/>
should Americans keep'Voting for the Republicans and Democrats if, when<lb/>
elected, they leave citizens feeling betrayed and embarrassed with the most<lb/>
powerful representative of the free world?<lb/>
We at TfC would like to be given the opportunity to hear all of the presidential<lb/>
candidates in the debates in future elections. Everyone who has the opportunity<lb/>

IN MYOPINION<lb/>
Candidates found little to disagree on in debate<lb/>
COLUMBUS, Ohio (U-WIRL.)-I<lb/>
nearly fell asleep watching the<lb/>
second presidential debate this<lb/>
week. It took a good 20-some min-<lb/>
utes for Tweedledee and Tweedle-<lb/>
dum to finally find an issue that<lb/>
they distinctly disagreed with each<lb/>
other on.<lb/>
Even from that point on there<lb/>
were mostly only subtle differences,<lb/>
but no real deep controversies. For<lb/>
instance, while Al Gore supports<lb/>
mandatory waiting periods for gun<lb/>
purchases, George W. Bush does<lb/>
not. However, both are for better<lb/>
enforcement of laws already on the<lb/>
books and the elimination of gun<lb/>
show loopholes. Both have stated<lb/>
that they are willing to sign limited<lb/>
gun restriction laws.<lb/>
Bush and Gore have remarkable<lb/>
similarities on numerous other<lb/>
issues. Both favor putting more<lb/>
money into the drug war, and under<lb/>
the Clinton administration more<lb/>
people have been put away for non-<lb/>
violent drug crimes than during<lb/>
Bush Srs administration. Neither<lb/>
candidate has dealt head-on with<lb/>
America's alarmingly high prison<lb/>
population.<lb/>
During the debates, when the<lb/>
moderator listed past American<lb/>
military interventions in foreign<lb/>
countries, Bush and Gore agreed<lb/>
significantly more than they dis-<lb/>
agreed. Two years ago, a town meet-<lb/>
ing to discuss bombing of Iraq was<lb/>
set here at Ohio State, where groups<lb/>
of protesters demonstrated against<lb/>
the action. If both presidential<lb/>
candidates advocate a consistent<lb/>
pattern of violent military action.<lb/>
where is the voice of all the Ameri-<lb/>
cans opposed to it?<lb/>
Both candidates also support<lb/>
the death penalty despite its failure<lb/>
as a crime deterrent, opposition<lb/>
from Amnesty International and<lb/>
the United Nations and the risk<lb/>
of innocent lives. More than 85<lb/>
prisoners have been freed from<lb/>
death row due to revealed accidents<lb/>
and incompetence in our judicial<lb/>
system. Gore warns against the<lb/>
dangers of racial profiling but does<lb/>
not seem to be bothered by the fact<lb/>
that the vast majority of death row<lb/>
inmates could not afford a lawyer<lb/>
and are racial minorities.<lb/>
In the matter of health insur-<lb/>
ance, it is a no-win situation. We see<lb/>
that the number of people without<lb/>
it has increased during the Clinton<lb/>
administration, and also that Texas,<lb/>
combined with California, holds<lb/>
18 percent of the nation's children<lb/>
without coverage.<lb/>
People will point out that Gore<lb/>
and Bush divide, perhaps most<lb/>
sharply, on the issues of Medical<lb/>
Care, Social Security and welfare.<lb/>
Certainly Gore is more aggressive<lb/>
about putting additional funds into<lb/>
such programs. However, we must<lb/>
acknowledge that Clinton signed a<lb/>
bill that cut welfare and that both<lb/>
he and Gore have records for being<lb/>
centrist Democrats.<lb/>
Both candidates have also<lb/>
engaged in corrupt campaigns,<lb/>
taking advantage of loopholes that<lb/>
violate the spirit of the laws. Both<lb/>
the Clinton and now the Gore<lb/>
campaigns used soft money, even<lb/>
after Gore publicly condemned it.<lb/>
And Bush has received bundled-<lb/>
contributions from corporations.<lb/>
The most insane catch-22 in<lb/>
this year's election is the part of<lb/>
third parties, particularly the front-<lb/>
running Green Party and its candi-<lb/>
date Ralph Nader. The media do<lb/>
not pay attention to third parties,<lb/>
and that leads to the candidates<lb/>
doing poorly in the polls, which<lb/>
leads to the media continuing to<lb/>
not pay attention to them.<lb/>
Another frustrating barrier is<lb/>
that when voters see third-party<lb/>
candidates doing poorly in the<lb/>
polls it reinforces the idea that it<lb/>
is a waste to vote for them, and so<lb/>
those candidates cannot seem to<lb/>
get past a low set threshold.<lb/>
it is rather remarkable, given<lb/>
these roadblocks, that at some<lb/>
point in the campaign Nader had<lb/>
8 percent in the polls. And that 8<lb/>
percent does not count all those<lb/>
liberals who would like to vote for<lb/>
Nader but will not because they<lb/>
fear Bush.<lb/>
After carefully watching this<lb/>
campaign for more than a year I<lb/>
personally have grown tired of the<lb/>
urge to vote Gore as the lesser of<lb/>
two evils. If Gore loses because of<lb/>
liberals who voted for Nader<lb/>
instead, then the Democratic<lb/>
Party will be forced to turn back<lb/>
to real liberal values to get those<lb/>
people back. So in that respect it is<lb/>
not blind idealism to vote for Nader<lb/>
if one really wants to. We don't<lb/>
have to vote for the winning person<lb/>
to make a positive difference.<lb/>
LETTER TO THE EDITOR<lb/>
Take action: Vote<lb/>
Dear Editor,<lb/>
Amidst debates, party platforms,<lb/>
ideologies, commercials and open<lb/>
letters, such as the "little" Al Gore<lb/>
propaganda piece published by TEC<lb/>
on Oct. 3, there is one thing we can<lb/>
trust: the right to vote. However,<lb/>
it is pathetic, statistically, that our<lb/>
age group (18-25) will have one of<lb/>
lowest voter turnouts-even though<lb/>
we compromise one of the larger<lb/>
segments of society.<lb/>
It is also sad that MTV feels it<lb/>
has to "Rock the Votepandering<lb/>
down to us the brilliant advice of<lb/>
N'SYNC and "Stone Cold" Steve<lb/>
Austin. We should know by now, if<lb/>
we stayed awake in our American<lb/>
History class, that the presidential<lb/>
elections are a chance to give our<lb/>
beliefs action, to exercise a consti-<lb/>
tutional process. And even though<lb/>
we may cast our vote for an obscure<lb/>
third party candidate, that is still<lb/>
reason enough to get off your butt,<lb/>
close your cell phone and vote.<lb/>

IN MYOPINION<lb/>
Welfare of Palestine not United States priority<lb/>
The fighting in Palestine has<lb/>
continued throughout the week<lb/>
with many more dying and even<lb/>
more injured, almost alt on the<lb/>
Palestinian side.<lb/>
It seems as if there has been a<lb/>
considerable amount to talk about<lb/>
the Palestinians to pull back, and<lb/>
some have placed the blame on<lb/>
Arafat. Both presidential candidates<lb/>
have talked about their support for<lb/>
Israel and yet they want to act as an<lb/>
honest broker. So as it stands, to my<lb/>
utter shock, there are some in the<lb/>
media and politics who think that<lb/>
the Palestinians are causing the<lb/>
aggressions and are killing innocent<lb/>
Israeli citizens.<lb/>
Well, let's go over the facts. First,<lb/>
a visit from the Israeli government<lb/>
official to a holly site in Palestine<lb/>
caused some peaceful protesting<lb/>
among the Palestinians; something<lb/>
like what we do in the United<lb/>
States (one example in the Million<lb/>
Mom March for gun control). It<lb/>
was peaceful and to the point until<lb/>
Israeli soldiers started shooting<lb/>
live ammo and unarmed civilians<lb/>
and innocent children. Now if that<lb/>
isn't enough to outrage somebody,<lb/>
I don't know what is.<lb/>
After some 80 plus Palestinians<lb/>
were killed, there was no con-<lb/>
demnation of this act of aggres-<lb/>
sion by the Israelis except by the<lb/>
United Nations; but without any<lb/>
consequences to back that con-<lb/>
demnation, it really doesn't mean<lb/>
anything to anybody.<lb/>
Imagine that an enemy is firing<lb/>
up you with live ammo, is bomb-<lb/>
ing you from above, not just your<lb/>
military sites but also your civilian<lb/>
sites. Would this not be enough<lb/>
for us to declare war and to fight<lb/>
with everything we have? Sure it<lb/>
would, and that is the case with<lb/>
the Palestinians.<lb/>
Now it so happens that you<lb/>
capture a couple of the soldiers<lb/>
who are firing at you while you<lb/>
are unarmed. What would you do<lb/>
to them?<lb/>
That is exactly what the Pales-<lb/>
tinians did when they caught a few<lb/>
Israeli soldiers. The fact is, about<lb/>
100 or more Palestinians have been<lb/>
killed thus fat in this new set of<lb/>
tragic events. Nobody wants it to<lb/>
happen but it happened and the<lb/>
Palestinians are under fire from<lb/>
ground and air, they are at war and<lb/>
there is no other way to put it.<lb/>
President Bill Clinton was quick<lb/>
to condemn the killing of the Israeli<lb/>
soldiers; I have yet to hear him<lb/>
condemn the killings of the Pales-<lb/>
tinians. Maybe he doesn't think<lb/>
that a 100 Palestinian lives are<lb/>
worth anything; I don't know what<lb/>
other conclusion to draw. Given<lb/>
this, how can the United States<lb/>
claim to be an honest broker?<lb/>
LETTER TO THE EDITOR<lb/>
Napster: big labels steal from bands<lb/>
Editor's Note: "Our View" is the<lb/>
opinion of the TEC Editorial Board<lb/>
and is written by individual Editorial<lb/>
Board members.<lb/>
Dear Editor,<lb/>
Recently (TEC) wrote yet<lb/>
another uninformed opinion about-<lb/>
a subject that (it) has absolutely<lb/>
no understanding about. All issues<lb/>
have more than one side and in<lb/>
today's complicated world, issues<lb/>
often have several sides. The writer<lb/>
seems to be a bit lazy in (his or her)<lb/>
knowledge of the subject.<lb/>
Concerning Napster and your<lb/>
concern that the musicians may<lb/>
"go out of business This is not a<lb/>
musician issue. It is a record label<lb/>
issue. It is the record labels strong<lb/>
arm known as RIM that is reaching<lb/>
out to file these lawsuits against<lb/>
Napster. At issue is not the music or<lb/>
the profits or concern for the musi-<lb/>
cians. What they are concerned<lb/>
about is that their own huge prof-<lb/>
its may be diminished, but more<lb/>
important to the record labels is<lb/>
a concern for their diminished<lb/>
control.<lb/>
You obviously did absolutely no<lb/>
research except for a quick passage<lb/>
from the bible so here's some info.<lb/>
A new band signed to a major label<lb/>
who enjoys moderate success, let<lb/>
us say, they are a one-hit-wonder.<lb/>
They sell 2 million copies of their<lb/>
inane song and we get to here this<lb/>
simple but catchy tune 10 times<lb/>
a day on the local modern rock<lb/>
station.<lb/>
The label sells the albums at<lb/>
around $12 per unit to the record<lb/>
stores. They cost the label about 85<lb/>
cents per copy including packaging.<lb/>
With a gross take in of about $24<lb/>
million how much do you think<lb/>
the band will see? A whoping 27<lb/>
cents per copy sold. That's right, it<lb/>
works out to around a half a million<lb/>
dollars. Wow, the label takes in<lb/>
around 24 million and the artist<lb/>
receives $500,000 of that. Who's<lb/>
stealing from whom here?<lb/>
Napster is participant driven.<lb/>
Millions of young people are saying<lb/>
to the public and the record indus-<lb/>
try that they don't want and don't<lb/>
like the crappy music being force<lb/>
fed to them by labels that have<lb/>
little or no clue as to what good<lb/>
music is. It's about control by the<lb/>
big three labels.<lb/>
About a year and a half ago sev-<lb/>
eral small labels where purchased<lb/>
and dissolved so as to eliminate the<lb/>
opportunities that may give a band<lb/>
the opportunity to receive the lions<lb/>
share of the profits. If they-the<lb/>
Large record Industry-don't repre-<lb/>
sent it, then they don't want you<lb/>
to have it.<lb/>
Along comes the Internet and<lb/>
about 10 million downloaders<lb/>
express their wants and desires by<lb/>
finding a way to get to the music<lb/>
they want and by posting that<lb/>
music and their choices for others<lb/>
to find and listen to as MP3s at the<lb/>
Napster site. It gives independent<lb/>
bands a leg up in an industry that<lb/>
clearly wants to keep them in their<lb/>
place. If bands become known and<lb/>
get that $12 a CD rather than the<lb/>
record industry, would that be so<lb/>
bad?<lb/>
Yes, there are issues about Nap-<lb/>
ster and loss of revenue and there<lb/>
are no clear answers yet, but your<lb/>
simpleton attack on the young<lb/>
man that formed Napster reeks<lb/>
of piousness and a glaring lack of<lb/>
knowledge and information about<lb/>
the issue you write about. At least<lb/>
the young man who dropped out of<lb/>
college used the time on his hands<lb/>
to make a mark in this world and<lb/>
he has stood up for that mark and<lb/>
he has, dare I say, accomplished<lb/>
more before he was 19 than most<lb/>
of us will ever accomplish in our<lb/>
lives.<lb/>
You quoted from the Bible,<lb/>
something about "thou shall not<lb/>
steal What about, "Judge not lest<lb/>
ye be judged<lb/>
Since you've chosen to insult<lb/>
the young man without him being<lb/>
able to respond and defend him-<lb/>
self, which is very small-minded,<lb/>
especially the college dropout com-<lb/>
ments, here's one on his behalf<lb/>
back at ya.<lb/>
Your piousness is only surpassed<lb/>
by your ignorance and laziness in<lb/>
researching the subject at hand.<lb/>
If you are going to speak out as<lb/>
(a newspaper) you owe it to your<lb/>
readers to be fully informed and<lb/>
then to get that information to<lb/>
them. It's difficult for us to take<lb/>
you seriously and to consider your<lb/>
opinions valid unless they are<lb/>
founded, which few if any of yours<lb/>
are.<lb/>

PiCk Of the Week: Meet the Parents<lb/>
Maura Buck<lb/>
FEATURES EDITOR<lb/>
Meet the Parents is prov-<lb/>
ing to be a huge hit with<lb/>
moviegoers. The cpmedy<lb/>
about a beau, Greg Focker<lb/>
(Ben Stiller), who meets<lb/>
the ultimate father-in-law<lb/>
from hell, played by Robert<lb/>
DeNiro, brought home a<lb/>
record $29.1 million for an<lb/>
October opener. The film<lb/>
broke the record previ-<lb/>
ously held by the Octo-<lb/>
berl998 hit Ante.<lb/>
Parents has a pretty<lb/>
impressive cast of charac-<lb/>
ters, boasting Ben Stiller,<lb/>
Robert DeNiro, Teri Polo<lb/>
and Blythe Danner. Despite<lb/>
the fact that these actors have star power,<lb/>
director Jay Roach brings his unique<lb/>
humor to the big screen for the first time<lb/>
since his Austin Powers success.<lb/>
"I loved his Austin Powers films and<lb/>
I wasn't let down by his efforts in this<lb/>
film, either said sophomore Kevin<lb/>
Scarmack.<lb/>
Mothers-in-law get off easy in Meet<lb/>
the Parents. Instead, a would-be father-<lb/>
in-law serves as the running punch line<lb/>
for the movie. The movie sets up jokes<lb/>
so well that they leave patrons laughing<lb/>
and they leave the theater with smiles<lb/>
plastered on their faces. Don't think<lb/>
an overflowing septic tank is funny<lb/>
enough? Just wait until wedding guests<lb/>
get spattered with the muck-and don't<lb/>
forget those close-ups.<lb/>
"Some parts were minutes of non-<lb/>
stop laughter said Eric Davis, fresh-<lb/>
man.<lb/>
The harder Focker-a male nurse and<lb/>
Jewish kid-tries, the more determined<lb/>
Dad becomes to unmask the young man<lb/>
for the liar and drug user he mistakenly<lb/>
assumes him to be. He even goes so far<lb/>
as to administer a polygraph test to the<lb/>
flustered visitor.<lb/>
"I think that Stiller and DeNiro had<lb/>
a lot of chemistry, they worked well<lb/>
together Davis said.<lb/>
One thing that truly works for the<lb/>
film is the way it sets up scenes. For<lb/>
example, in one early scene Focker tosses<lb/>
a cigarette pack-Dad hates smokers-onto<lb/>
the roof and there's a close-up of it<lb/>
lying on the shingles. Why? So that<lb/>
halfway through the film moviegoers can<lb/>
experience a hilarious scene in which<lb/>
Focker climbs out onto the roof, smokes<lb/>
a cigarette and accidentally starts a major<lb/>
fire on the eve of his future sister-in-law's<lb/>
wedding.<lb/>
Though Stiller is still stuck in his<lb/>
familiar chump mode from There's Some-<lb/>
thing About Mary he is arguably one of<lb/>
the funniest young comedians today.<lb/>
Danner, as DeNiro's wife, and Polo-from<lb/>
TV's "Felicityboth have too little to do,<lb/>
though Danner definitely adds decorative<lb/>
comic relief where she can.<lb/>
Their characters are crucial to the<lb/>
story line despite the fact that they never<lb/>
steal scenes. Regardless, the stars, plot<lb/>
and the very premise of the film are all<lb/>
topics that nearly every couple can relate<lb/>
to. It's a great film to see when craving<lb/>
a comedy.<lb/>

Graduating in 4 years:<lb/>
Is it history at colleges?<lb/>
(TMS)-Parents, take note: For<lb/>
most college students, a four-year<lb/>
degree is a thing of the past.<lb/>
At most of Virginia's 15 public<lb/>
four-year colleges, less than 50 per-<lb/>
cent of freshmen graduate within<lb/>
six years, according to state data.<lb/>
That's still an Improvement from<lb/>
the recent past; in the past decade,<lb/>
the graduation rates have risen at<lb/>
two-thirds of the schools.<lb/>
The latest data from the State<lb/>
Council of Higher Education, which<lb/>
are not final, track the number<lb/>
of freshmen starting college in<lb/>
1993 who graduated by 1999. They<lb/>
show:<lb/>
About 20 percent graduated<lb/>
at Norfolk State University, the<lb/>
Virginia school with the lowest<lb/>
rate.<lb/>
That reflects Norfolk State's<lb/>
"almost open-admissions" policy<lb/>
in the early 1990s, President Marie<lb/>
V. McDemmond said. She predicted<lb/>
that the rate will increase with<lb/>
the university's recent shift to a<lb/>
C-average admissions requirement<lb/>
and more intensive advising of<lb/>
students without majors.<lb/>
Slightly less than 40 percent<lb/>
graduated from Old Dominion<lb/>
University, down from 41.4 percent<lb/>
of 1983 freshmen.<lb/>
ODU President James V. Koch<lb/>
said the change is small and termed<lb/>
the rates "basically irrelevant" for<lb/>
ODU. Thirty percent of freshmen,<lb/>
including military dependents, "tell<lb/>
us they do not intend to graduate<lb/>
from ODU Koch thinks those<lb/>
students should be excluded from<lb/>
the rates.<lb/>
Twenty-eight percent graduated<lb/>
at Christopher Newport University,<lb/>
down from 30.5 percent of 1983<lb/>
freshmen.<lb/>
The school has the state's sec-<lb/>
ond-lowest rate, but its provost,<lb/>
Robert D. Doane, said: "I don't<lb/>
think that reflects what students<lb/>
at CNU are like today. What we're<lb/>
doing now is accepting much more<lb/>
qualified students<lb/>
The colleges with the best gradu-<lb/>
ation rates remain the University of<lb/>
Virginia and the College of William<lb/>
and Mary, at 91 and 88 percent,<lb/>
respectively. That's no surprise to<lb/>
Phyllis Palmiero, executive director<lb/>
of the state council, who echoed<lb/>
academia's caveat: Don't compare<lb/>
schools.<lb/>
"Students who go to William<lb/>
and Mary and the University of<lb/>
Virginia are academically prepared<lb/>
Palmiero said. At some other col-<lb/>
leges, "students may be less pre-<lb/>
pared or they may have more chal-<lb/>
lenges paying for school. So they're<lb/>
going to be dropping in and out,<lb/>
and taking fewer courses<lb/>
Academics say Virginia's figures<lb/>
are in line with nationwide results.<lb/>
ACT Inc an education organi-<lb/>
zation in Iowa, surveys 450 public<lb/>
four-year colleges. It says the five-<lb/>
year graduation rate has fallen from<lb/>
48.5 percent in 1987 to 42.2 percent<lb/>
in 1999. It does not compute six-<lb/>
year rates, as Virginia does. Neither<lb/>
compiles four-year rates.<lb/>

Fourth quarter surge<lb/>
helps Pirates past Cadets<lb/>
Harris, Henry<lb/>
spur offensive outburst<lb/>
Stephen Schramm<lb/>
SPORTS EDITOR<lb/>
ECU Head Coach Steve Logan has preached to<lb/>
his team all season about the value of a strong fourth<lb/>
quarter. After three quarters Saturday, KCU battled<lb/>
Army to a 21-21 tie.<lb/>
In the final period, the Pirates exploded for 21<lb/>
points and blew past winless Army, 42-21.<lb/>
"All year we haven't lost a fourth quarter said<lb/>
running back Jamie Wilson. "We came up short in<lb/>
the (Virginia) Tech game and the Memphis game,<lb/>
but we still won the fourth quarter of those games.<lb/>
That's what we do. That's Pirate football, that's what<lb/>
we're known for. We try to stick to it<lb/>
ECU jumped out to an early lead, getting the fast<lb/>
start they had hoped for, on a one-yard touchdown<lb/>
nin by Quarterback David Garrard. On the Pirates'<lb/>
second possession, a Garrard pass bounced off of<lb/>
the chest of tight end Rashon Burns and into the<lb/>
hands of Army's Ben Woodroff.<lb/>
Army got on the board in the second quarter<lb/>
with a Michael Wallace 2 yard touchdown on a drive<lb/>
that saw the Cadets convert a fourth and one.<lb/>

with 2:46 left in the<lb/>
quarter.<lb/>
"We talked all week<lb/>
about getting off to a<lb/>
fast start and we kind of<lb/>
did that Logan said.<lb/>

start of the second drive<lb/>

that they did<lb/>
The Pirates responded by evening the score at 14<lb/>
a piece on a drive that saw the Pirates move 69 yards<lb/>
after a 30-yard kickoff return by Terrance Copper. The<lb/>
Pirates scored when Garrard connected with Marcellus<lb/>
Harris on a 46-yard bomb.<lb/>
After a Garrard pass was picked off by Army's Brent<lb/>
Dial and run back to the ECU 10-yard line, the Cadets<lb/>
scored on a 7-yard pass from Curtis Zervic to Bryan<lb/>
Bowdish.<lb/>
The Pirates anwered again when Garrard found<lb/>
Henry out of the backfield for a scoring play that<lb/>
covered 15 yards, tied the score and set up the Pirates'<lb/>
fourth quarter surge.<lb/>
"We did come out and did get the opening drive.<lb/>

still kept our heads in it and puched it in in the<lb/>
fourth quarter like we normally do<lb/>
Marcellus Harris is one of the big time players<lb/>
in this program. I wouldn't trade him foranybody.<lb/>
He just does everything. Runs reverses, runs back<lb/>
kickoffs. Whatever we need him to do, he does it.<lb/>
He played a wonderful game tonight.<lb/>
"Sometimes I wonder if I've over coached it<lb/>
Logan said. "Hanging around and waiting for the<lb/>
fourth quarter is going to cause me a heart attack.<lb/>
I don't know. But I do know that games are won in<lb/>
the fourth quarter. It's just a fact.<lb/>

Men's soccer team<lb/>

Pirates down<lb/>
UNCW,falltolMU<lb/>
Richard Clark<lb/>
STAFF WRITER<lb/>
The ECU men's soccer team seized their first confer-<lb/>
ence win Oct. 1 I with a thrilling, double-overtime win<lb/>
against state rival UNC-Wilmington.<lb/>
The Pirates followed that performance with a gutsy<lb/>
.1-0 loss to the nationally ranked James Madison<lb/>
University.<lb/>
ECU used a mix of senior leadership and timely<lb/>
freshmen contributions to wear down a talented<lb/>
UNC-W team. I he seniors, Pat Jennings, Greg Hoffman<lb/>
and Dino Stambolitis, kept the team together until<lb/>
freshman D.J. Jarmon scored not only the first goal<lb/>
of his career, but also the game winner in the second<lb/>
overtime period against Wilmington.<lb/>
ECU started slowly falling behind 2-0 on goals by<lb/>
Justin Schatz and Tommy Miller of UNC-W.<lb/>
I thought UNC-W came out from the start and<lb/>
looked sharp ECU Head Coach Devin O'Neill said.<lb/>
"Our guys showed guts. They never gave up and that is<lb/>
a credit to their character. I think the potential is there<lb/>
for us to have a really good team. It is just a matter of<lb/>
putting together a full 90 minutes<lb/>
The Pirates cut the lead in half with the first of<lb/>
Jennings two goals. It was a well executed play starting<lb/>
the corner with Michael Logan and Charlie Joyner<lb/>
collecting assists by playing keep-away from an UNC-W<lb/>
defender and ending with a rocket off the foot of<lb/>
Jennings. O'Neill sensing his Pirates were starting<lb/>
slowly made the first of several subtle but deft changes<lb/>
that invigorated his team.<lb/>
The first half ended with the Seahawks clinging to<lb/>
a 2-1 lead. The Pirates opened the second half with<lb/>
constant pressure, which resulted in flurry of shots on<lb/>
UNC-W goalie Bill Mills. ECU, fueled by the infusion of<lb/>
energy from reserves Stambolitis and Jarmon, pressed<lb/>
the Seahawks into several mistakes.<lb/>
The ECU soccer team watches the action on the<lb/>
field, (file photo)<lb/>
"We owe everything to Coach O'Neill Stambolitis<lb/>
said. "He definitely has turned the program around<lb/>
Ereshman Pat Simcox was able to capitalize on one<lb/>
of the mistakes by scoring unassisted to knot the score<lb/>
at 2-2. ECU played with more aggression in the second<lb/>
half and seemed to be in control of the game's<lb/>
tempo. However, just as things seemed to be favoring<lb/>
ECU, the Seahawks Conor Lander slipped a goal past<lb/>

Heat's mourning to miss NBA season<lb/>
MIAMI (AP)-A common but serious kidney ailment<lb/>
will keep Alonzo Mourning sidelined for the entire<lb/>
season, depriving the Miami Heat of their biggest star<lb/>
and the key to their quest for an NBA title.<lb/>
Doctors said Monday that the illness, first spotted<lb/>
just after Mourning helped the United States team to<lb/>
the basketball gold medal earlier this month, was focal<lb/>
glomerulosclerosis, which leads to kidney failure in<lb/>
about half the cases.<lb/>
They said there were no immediate plans for a<lb/>
kidney transplant or dialysis.<lb/>
"I feel great right now. We've pretty much got a<lb/>
hold on it, the whole situation right now Mourning<lb/>
said at a news conference where he discussed his<lb/>
ailment publicly for the first time. "The main objective<lb/>
is to get me healthy so I can live my life normally,<lb/>
so I can see my babies grow up, and so 1 can enjoy<lb/>
my family.<lb/>
"And at the same time, possibly do the things that<lb/>
I know and love-and that's the game of basketball. But<lb/>
the key right now is to get me healthy he said.<lb/>
Pat Riley, the head coach who spent the offseason<lb/>
signing free agents and redesigning the team to<lb/>
complement Mourning's talents, said his star center<lb/>
was following the proper course.<lb/>
"Alonzo Mourning will not be playing professional<lb/>
basketball this season, and we're totally convinced that<lb/>
the only thing that should be on his mind is getting<lb/>
healthy Riley said.<lb/>
Mourning, 30, made his first public appearance<lb/>
since Oct. 3, when he attended the team's media day.<lb/>
Training camp began without him the following day,<lb/>
and he has not practiced because of his condition,<lb/>
which was discovered during a routine physical two<lb/>
weeks ago.<lb/>
Dr. Gerald Appel, of Columbia Presbyterian Hospital<lb/>
in New York, said the disease causes the kidneys to<lb/>
leak protein into a person's urine. Without treatment,<lb/>
filters in the kidneys eventually become scarred, cease<lb/>
to function and a transplant is needed.<lb/>
He said the disease is widespread among blacks.<lb/>
"I am very confident this is not related to HIV<lb/>
disease, it's not related to drug abuse, it's not related to<lb/>
steroids or anything Alonzo did Appel said, adding<lb/>
that the origin of Mourning's condition is "idiopathic<lb/>
or unknown.<lb/>
Mourning will be placed on a six-month treatment<lb/>
trial. He will take medications to hopefully reduce<lb/>
the swelling in his lower body, stop the kidneys<lb/>
from leaking proteins and control his blood pressure<lb/>
and cholesterol levels. He also will follow a strict<lb/>
low-sodium diet.<lb/>
But even with treatment, about 50 percent of<lb/>
cases develop chronic renal failure, Appel said. The<lb/>

Duke female<lb/>
kicker awarded<lb/>
$2 million<lb/>
DURHAM (IMSCampus)-Duke University's<lb/>
decision to cut a female place-kicker from its<lb/>
football team in 1996 was based strictly on the<lb/>
fact that she was female, and the university<lb/>
must now pay Heather Sue Mercer more than $2<lb/>
million in damages, a jury ruled Thursday.<lb/>
Mercer, 24, claimed that then-Head Coach<lb/>
Ered Goldsmith cut her from the team because<lb/>
she was a woman. She testified that she was<lb/>
capable are hitting field goals from 48 yards<lb/>
out, and that she kicked the game-winning field<lb/>
goal in an intrasquad game before Goldsmith<lb/>
dismissed her.<lb/>
The University, however, testified that<lb/>
Mercer was cut because she simply didn't have<lb/>
the skills other kickers had, and that Goldsmith,<lb/>
who was fired in 1998, cut Mercer extra slack<lb/>
because "she was trying to do something<lb/>
special he said during his testimony.<lb/>
The settlement consists of $2 million in puni-<lb/>
tive damages, stemmed from the university's<lb/>
knowledge of, and inaction regarding, Mercer's<lb/>
dismissal.<lb/>
"We're obviously dis-<lb/>
appointed with the<lb/>
jury's finding and are<lb/>
confident the judg-<lb/>
ment will be rectified<lb/>
on appeal<lb/>
John Burness<lb/>
Vice President Public<lb/>
Affairs, Duke<lb/>
Additionally, Duke<lb/>
must pay Mercer $1<lb/>
in compensatory dam-<lb/>
ages. The jury rea-<lb/>
soned that putting a<lb/>
price tag on damages<lb/>
Mercer incurred was<lb/>
not feasible. Neverthe-<lb/>
less, Mercer was grat-<lb/>
ified with the jury's<lb/>
decision.<lb/>
"I feel great<lb/>
Mercer said. "I con-<lb/>
sider it a complete vic-<lb/>
tory<lb/>
John Burness, Duke's senior vice president<lb/>
for public affairs and government relations,<lb/>
announced in a blunt statement that the<lb/>
university will appeal the decision.<lb/>
"We're obviously disappointed with the<lb/>
jury's finding and are confident the judgment<lb/>
will be rectified on appeal Burness said.<lb/>
Burton Craige, Mercer's attorney, asked<lb/>
the jury to reward his client with an amount<lb/>
that would "get Duke's attention But Mercer,<lb/>
now an employee at Charles Schwab &amp; Co. in<lb/>
New York, said that the money is merely an<lb/>
afterthought.<lb/>
"Any monetary award is completely icing<lb/>
on the cake. I wanted to be told what they did<lb/>
was wrong, and it was, " Mercer said.<lb/>
The punitive damages will go toward a<lb/>
scholarship fund for future female place-kickers.<lb/>
Interestingly, the decision comes smack in the<lb/>
middle of a year-long, university-wide program<lb/>
recognizing women's achievements in Duke<lb/>
sports. The program culminates in April with<lb/>
a weekend of activities, including a gala, golf<lb/>
outing, silent auction and several parties. Duke<lb/>
introduced women's sports on the club level<lb/>
in the 1940s.<lb/>
Varsity athletics for women were introduced<lb/>
during the 1971-72 school year, roughly the<lb/>
same time the U.S. Department of Education<lb/>
enforced Title IX, which prohibits any school<lb/>
receiving federal funds, Duke included, from<lb/>
excluding would-be athletes on the basis of<lb/>
gender.<lb/>

Golota looking for a clean fight<lb/>
DETROIT (API-Andrew Golota<lb/>
is looking for a clean fight. A short<lb/>
fight Is what's on Mike Tyson's<lb/>
mind.<lb/>
"I am approaching this fight like<lb/>
it is going to be a clean one Golota<lb/>
said Monday after working out at<lb/>
the Powerhouse Gym in Madison<lb/>
Heights, Mich. "I plan to fight clean<lb/>
as much as possible<lb/>
"I'm not worried about Golota's<lb/>
tactics Tyson said after a workout<lb/>
at Detroit's Brewster Gym, where<lb/>
the great Joe Louis once trained.<lb/>
"If he is knocked out it does not<lb/>
matter. I am looking to do some<lb/>
serious damage. I am looking for<lb/>
a quick KO<lb/>
The two heavyweights who<lb/>
have sullied their reputations with<lb/>
dirty tactics in several bouts are<lb/>
scheduled to fight Friday night in<lb/>
the Palace at Auburn Hills. It will<lb/>
be shown on pay-per-view.<lb/>
"Both fighters are professionals<lb/>
and know how to fight said Al<lb/>
Certo, Golota's trainer. "I think<lb/>
the media wants a dirty fight and<lb/>
has been trying to talk the fighters<lb/>
into it. 1 think it is going to be<lb/>
good fight. If Tyson does fight dirty,<lb/>
Golota might pick him up and<lb/>
body slam him or throw him out<lb/>
of the ring<lb/>
Tyson, who appeared relaxed,<lb/>
said he doesn't believe he is the<lb/>
despised figure he is sometimes<lb/>
portrayed as being.<lb/>
"If every white person really<lb/>
hated me, I would not make a<lb/>
dollar the former undisputed<lb/>
heavyweight champion said.<lb/>
"Anyone with any kind of intel-<lb/>
ligence would know that. Anyone<lb/>
that is ignorant would want to<lb/>
believe that. I am an anxious guy<lb/>
and I am bitter. Listen, I am just<lb/>
insecure sometimes. Sometimes 1<lb/>
overreact when I should not.<lb/>
"I fought in London (actually<lb/>
Manchester, England) and Scotland<lb/>
and all the white people there loved<lb/>
me he said. "I come back here<lb/>
(the United States) and I hear all<lb/>
these bad things about me<lb/>
Golota has failed to win big<lb/>
fights. He twice was disqualified in<lb/>
bouts he was winning against Rid-<lb/>
dick Bowe. He was stopped in one<lb/>
round by heavyweight champion<lb/>
lnnox Lewis and he was stopped<lb/>
by Michael Grant in the ninth<lb/>
round of a fight he was the verge<lb/>
of winning.<lb/>
"I think Tyson's promoter prob-<lb/>
ably thought 1 would be a good<lb/>
opponent for him Golota said.<lb/>
"We will see Friday night. This<lb/>
is definitely going to be a very<lb/>
interesting fight for the viewers.<lb/>
I have worked very hard for this<lb/>
fight. I have sparred, boxed and<lb/>
run more than ever before. I am<lb/>
ready<lb/>
Marquette facility honors ex-coach<lb/>
MILWAUKEE (AP)-Marquette University's new<lb/>
athletic facility will be named after former men's<lb/>
basketball coach Al McGuire, university officials<lb/>
said.<lb/>
The eccentric, colorful coach became as famous<lb/>
off the court as on during his 13 years leading<lb/>
the team then known as the Warriors to 259<lb/>
victories.<lb/>
His career culminated in 1977 when Marquette<lb/>
won the NCAA championship shortly after he<lb/>
announced his retirement.<lb/>
McGuire also led the Warriors to the 1970<lb/>
NIT title.<lb/>
"You don't have to be a fan of college basketball<lb/>
to be a fan of Al McGuire current men's basketball<lb/>
coach Tom Crean said Monday. "You have to be<lb/>
a fan of life<lb/>
McGuire, who is ill with leukemia, said in a<lb/>
statement that he is honored and is looking forward<lb/>
to taking the first shot in the new building.<lb/>
It will house practice facilities for men's<lb/>
and women's basketball, an academic center for<lb/>
student-athletes and a Marquette athletic hall of<lb/>
fame, among other smioes.<lb/>
"You don't have to be a fan of college basketball<lb/>
to be a fan of Al McGuire You have to be a fan<lb/>
of life<lb/>
Tom Crean<lb/>
Head Coach. Men's Basketball, Marquette<lb/>
University officials said they had no details on<lb/>
where the facility would be built, what it would<lb/>
look like or how much it would cost.<lb/>
But there was news Monday of a second large<lb/>
donation to help pay for the new building.<lb/>
James and Virginia Wheeler of West Bend pledged<lb/>
a $2 million matching gift. That is in addition<lb/>
to $7 million already pledged in August by an<lb/>
anonymous donor.<lb/>
The university now must raise $9 million from<lb/>
other donors to match the gifts.<lb/>
The Wheelers founded Essential Industries Inc<lb/>
a maker of industrial soaps and detergents. They<lb/>

SOCCER from 8<lb/>
the Pirates defense. Freshmen Joe<lb/>
Ellington and Jennings teamed up<lb/>
to notch Jennings' second goal of<lb/>
the evening tying the game at 3-3<lb/>
with just 9 seconds left in regula-<lb/>
tion. Jennings, who was hurt in<lb/>
practice on Oct. 7 and missed the<lb/>
High Point game, was just cleared<lb/>
to play on game day.<lb/>
"Pat Jennings has been solid<lb/>
all year Stambolitis said. "We<lb/>
were very excited about having<lb/>
him back<lb/>
After battling through an entire<lb/>
overtime period and nightfall well<lb/>
on the way, Jarmon stepped up and<lb/>
whistled the ball past the helpless<lb/>
Seahawks goalie to give the Pirates<lb/>
their first conference win and move<lb/>
their overall record to 7-5.<lb/>
Jarmon's goal gave the Pirate<lb/>
supporters that lasted through the<lb/>
marathon affair the thrill they were<lb/>
waiting for and the ECU men's<lb/>
soccer team the boost needed as<lb/>
"The seniors have been outstanding Our seniors have<lb/>
put the team first even if it may have been at their<lb/>
personal expense, such as reduced minutes. They have<lb/>

they headed into the tough road<lb/>
contest with nationally ranked<lb/>
JMU.<lb/>
The Pirates rode into Harrison-<lb/>
burg on an emotional high after the<lb/>
thriller with UNC-W. JMU stifled<lb/>
the Pirates with an outstanding<lb/>
defensive performance. JMU limited<lb/>
the Pirates to just 2 shots the entire<lb/>
game.<lb/>
"Overall, I thought we played<lb/>
fairly well O'Neill said. "They are<lb/>
a really good team and very well<lb/>
organized on defense. We can take<lb/>
some positives from this game and<lb/>
use them to improve on the rest of<lb/>
our season.<lb/>
"The seniors have been out-<lb/>

MOURNING from 8<lb/>
kidney disease used to be the fourth<lb/>
largest cause of death in the United<lb/>
States.<lb/>
"Right now, his kidney function<lb/>
is good Appel said. "He is not<lb/>
in a situation where we're talking<lb/>
about dialysis or a transplant. Many<lb/>
of the patients, when we turn off<lb/>
the protein entirely with these<lb/>
medications, they come off the<lb/>
medications and lead an absolutely<lb/>
normal life and they can do what-<lb/>
ever they want.<lb/>
"If they're a school teacher, they<lb/>
go back to that he said. "If they're<lb/>
a lawyer or a doctor, they go back<lb/>
to that. And if they're a basketball<lb/>
player, they go back to that<lb/>
When asked if Mourning will<lb/>
need dialysis or a transplant, Appel<lb/>
said: "If the levels of certain sub-<lb/>
stances in his blood rose up to a<lb/>
certain point where we thought<lb/>
that would be beneficial then that<lb/>
would be the case<lb/>
Dr. Victor Richards, also treating<lb/>
the five-time All Star, said Mourning<lb/>
has not been placed on a waiting<lb/>
list for a kidney transplant because<lb/>
doctors diagnosed his condition in<lb/>
"If they're a school teacher, they go back to that. If they're<lb/>
a lawyer or a doctor, they go back to that. And if they're a<lb/>
basketball player, they go back to that<lb/>
Dr. Gerald Appel<lb/>
Columbia Presbyteria Hospital<lb/>
its early stage, and they hope to<lb/>
keep it from worsening.<lb/>
"I'm a blessed individual-I have<lb/>
a lot to be thankful for Mourn-<lb/>
ing said. "There are a whole lot<lb/>
of people that are worse off than<lb/>
me<lb/>
Doctors initially suspected<lb/>
Mourning had a viral infection,<lb/>
thyroid condition or merely fatigue<lb/>
from a busy offseason.<lb/>
Beginning Aug. 23, Mourning<lb/>
was on the road with the Olympic<lb/>
team for nearly six weeks, logging<lb/>
more than 40,000 air miles. He<lb/>
went to New York, Hawaii, Japan<lb/>
and finally Australia, and crossed<lb/>
the Pacific Ocean four times, return-<lb/>
ing briefly to Miami for the birth<lb/>
of his second child and flying back<lb/>
to Sydney to help the U.S. Olympic<lb/>
team win a gold medal.<lb/>
He was expected to lead a<lb/>
revamped Miami team widely con-<lb/>
sidered to be the favorite to win<lb/>
the Eastern Conference.<lb/>
Mourning missed the Hear1 first<lb/>
exhibition game last week against<lb/>
the New Jersey Nets.<lb/>
He finished third in voting for<lb/>
the NBA's Most Valuable Player<lb/>
last season, when he averaged 21.1<lb/>
points, 9.5 rebounds and 3.7 blocks<lb/>
per game. He has missed only seven<lb/>
games the past two seasons.<lb/>
With a healthy roster, the Heat<lb/>
were widely regarded as the favor-<lb/>
ites in the Eastern Conference.<lb/>
Without Mourning, the outlook<lb/>
would change drastically.<lb/>
"When you come to a folk in<lb/>
the road, you take it Riley said.<lb/>
"And we have come to that. Now<lb/>
we must move forward<lb/>
