Find One of 212 Ways to Be A Soldier (UWIRE) -University of Ala- bama-The September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States has left many Americans searching for someone or something to blame for the tragedies. After a band of extremists led by Osama bin Laden emerged as the prime suspects in the terrorism, some people began verbally abusing Islam, the religion professed by bin Laden and his followers. However, members of the Tus- caloosa, Ala., Muslim community stress there is no connection between their religion and the terrorists thought to be hiding in the moun- tains of southern Afghanistan. There is nothing conveyed by Islam through this act, said Moham- med al-Jahdali, president of the University™s Muslim Student Asso- ciation. The act was not against Americans; it was against all human beings. Associate aerospace engineering professor Muhammad Sharif, adviser for the MSA, encouraged Americans to learn more about Islam before making judgments. It is not such a difficult thing to learn about Islam, Sharif said. There are lots of misconceptions about Islam, including the suppres- sion of women, which is false. Islam is not fundamentalist but a progres- sive way of life. The word Islam derives from an Arabic word meaning peace. The defining tenets of Islam include obedience, loyalty, allegiance and submission to Allah, al-Jahdali said. Islam is a religion for all mankind, regardless of race, language or social position, he said. The prophet Mohammed wrote the holy book of Islam, the Koran, 1,400 years ago. Other books, including the Sunnah, also help provide instruction to the religion. There are about 1 billion Muslims worldwide, with 5 million in the United States. After a dispute over Moham- med™s rightful successor, the Muslim world divided into two major sects: Sunnis and Shiites. The mainstream, traditionalist Sunnis constitute 90 percent of the Muslim population. Shiites, who promote a stricter interpretation of the Koran, make up the remaining ten percent. at GOARMY.COM or call 252-756-9695. | Hwy Patrol NG Station | \ ze a SM And Contact your local recruiter. we'll help you find what's best for you. junior College 4-year University lle Here School, | Come! 2] Sits [oat |[Rceer_| oe Pi bw 5 a Eastgate Shopping Ctx. at Get pierce?

John Mayer proves its hip to be square™ JASON COX FEATURES EDITOR JOHN MAYER | ROOM FOR SRUMRES & When average, normal musi- cian John Mayer first set out to make music, he used one of the most astounding teachers in the world of guitar to shape his influ- ence. A deep admiration of the late Stevie Ray Vaughan led Mayer to pick up a guitar and commence his career as a blues guitarist in many low-key bars. What Mayer soon discovered was that emulating his idol could never compare with the satisfaction returning ten years down the road of creating something new from to his high school reunion to show within himself.

Rudolph Alexander Perform- ing Arts Series, now in its 40th season. The group, composed of three. thirty-something beauties, derived its name from the Italian term for heroic. The group is in many ways heroic. In a field where most musi- cians are pasty old men, critics from all over the world see the Eroica Trio as the fresh new face of classical music. YT think they are exciting because it is very uplifting to see three young women make it to the top of their field, especially one that is dominated by men, said Carol Woodruff, director of marketing for university unions. The members of the trio include pianist Erika Nicrenz, violinist Aden Pena and cellist Sara Sant™Ambrogio. All are highly ranked soloists who have performed internationally. The combination of their different styles makes for a lively performance with pop-influenced rhythms. They are vibrant, energetic and The beautiful and talented Eroica Trio have been referred to as the Charlie™s Angels of classical music. see MUSIC page B3 The trio will be performing October 4 as a part of the S.

The Pirates go into New York™s Carrier Dome with a two-game winning streak in tact. Anytime that you can get on a winning streak it™s big, said quar- terback David Garrard. Hopefully, we can just keep building on it and add four, five and six to it. The Orangemen are led by Head Coach Paul Pasqualoni, the win- ningest active coach in the BIG EAST. Pasqualoni has guided seven of the ten teams he has coached to bowl appearances and stands in eleventh place in ali-time wins among active Division-IA head coaches. Syracuse also enters Saturday™s game having won two consecutive games. Before defeating Central Florida and Auburn in the two previ- ous weeks, the Orangemen dropped back-to-back games to Georgia Tech and Tennessee, two of the nations premiere squads. Tl think our task got a little more severe with what occurred up in the Carrier Dome this past weekend, said Head Pirate Coach Steve Logan. They just beat the living fool out of Auburn in every phase of the game. I™m just guessing it, but | know after this week, they™ve got to feel like a million dollars. We™ve got our hands full, there™s no question about that. In last year™s meeting, ECU used a 21-point second quarter to ruin a rainy night in Bagwell for the Orangemen, 34-17. Sophomore Terrance Copper™s blocked punt from fast year should provide some extra incentive for a Pirate special team™s squad that has been hot of late. Our special teams is a very bright spot for us right now, Logan said. I™m not talking about just the punter, or just the kicker, although those two men are performing well. The Pirates offense, with seniors Garrard and Leonard Henry in the backfield, will be hoping for success against a Syracuse defense, which held Georgia Tech to only 13 points Pirates Junior blocker Destinee Richie blocks in Tuesday's match. ECU grabs win, skid over FROM STAFF REPORTS GREENVILLE, N.C. -Front-line blocking and the ability to attack the net proved to be the deciding factors in ECU™s win over Campbell in three games, 30-20, 30-23 and 30-19. The win against the Camels on Tuesday ended a four-match drought by the Pirates. It was a good to get a win, said Head Coach Colleen Farrell. We blocked exceptionally well, and played aggressive around the net all night. Not to say that Campbell is a bad team, but we knew we were better. This was a nice confidence booster and a good for team moral. It felt great to finally pull one out, we played all the way to thirty on opening day. The Pirates have built a flawless winning percentage when they rush for more than 145 yards. When we run the ball in our style of offense for more than 150 yards or more, we™re pretty hard to deal with, Logan said. Right now, I like the things I™m seeing on offense. We're explosive and we can score from a long ways away, which is my preference. I™m not big on long drives. | want short drives and lot™s of points. Y™m looking for a great game, Garrard said. I™m looking for our offense to step up and execute, not turn the ball over. I™m looking for the defense to stop the ball and just play smash-mouth football. The Syracuse defense is led by two of the nation™s top candidates for All-American honors handed to the best performers at the end of the season. Defensive end Dwight Freeney has 22 sacks in his last 12 games and behind him will be junior linebacker Clifton Smith. The Pirates have had some trou- ble stopping the run thus far in the season, so halting senior Syracuse tailback James Mungro, who has racked up nearly 400 yards in the first four games, could be the key to an ECU win. Invariably, Syracuse has a tailback that™s just a banger. That young man makes a cut off that block and you™d better be ready to tackle, Logan said. He ran right through Auburn. Auburn never stopped him. He was really, really good. Against Auburn, Syracuse ran the ball on more than half of the downs. With knowledge of this, Logan and the Pirates will be looking to integrate the blitz into their defensive attack. & QB David Garrard is second on C-USA™s career passing chart. He They're going to come out and run is one of the only Pirates that has visited the Carrier Dome. the ball a lot, said senior linebacker Greg LeFever. That™s what they do.

Charlotte voters earlier this year defeated a referendum that would have included funds for a new arena in that town. There is a serious interest in Lou- entry in the erstwhile American Basketball Association. Another component of the deal was creation of a special taxing district to pay for part of the arena™s construction. Miller said Tricon™s offer remains on the table for the Hornets, provided the NBA commissioner approves renaming the team the Colonels. The money from Tricon would go directly to the team, not to repay bonds issued for the arena, which would seat about 19,500, Miller said.

After months of hints, smiles and winks that kept his fans on edge, Jordan finally announced his comeback Tuesday, saying he would play for theWashington Wizards through 2003 and donate his salary the first year -$1 million -to victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. T am returning as a player to the game I love, said Jordan, 38 and three years removed from what seemed to be a storybook ending to an unparalleled career. I am espe- cially excited about the Washington Wizards, and I™m convinced we have the foundation on which to build a playoff-contention team. The opportunity to teach our young players and help them elevate their game to a higher level, and to thank the fans in Washington for their loyalty and support, strongly influenced my decision, he said in a statement issued through his management agency. The five-time league Most Valu- able Player, who retired for a second time in 1999 after leading the Chi- cago Bulls to their sixth title of the decade, made it official after clearing up a licensing issue with one of his sponsors -a disagreement that delayed the announcement by a day. NBA rules also required Jordan to sell his ownership stake in the Wizards. Jordan never completely ruled out a comeback when he retired in January 1999, hedging his bets with the statement that he was 99.9 percent certain he would never play again. Leaving the door open, even by one-tenth of 1 percent, meant Jordan could slip back into a uniform without going back on his word. Now, he has. tam happy to welcome Michael Jordan, the player, back to the NBA, although, as commissioner, [ am sorry to lose him in the board room, NBA commissioner David Stern said. Michael has always brought joy to basketball fans around the world, and, in these difficult times, we can all use a little more joy in our lives. Jordan™s announcement was sure to hearten a city-and entire country-shocked by terrorism. Washington™s economy has suffered since the Sept. 11 attacks, with Reagan National Airport remain- ing closed and hotel bookings far below capacity. His regular-season debut will be Oct. 30 in Madison Square Garden against the New York Knicks, and his first home game for the Wizards will be Nov. 3 against Allen Iverson and the Philadelphia 76ers. This is certainly an extremely important moment in the history of our franchise, however our excitement is muted by the world events that surround us, Wizards owner Abe Pollin said. The greatest player in the history of the game is joining my team, and for that | am extremely honored and pleased. Jordan will be in the unusual position of playing for the coach he hired, Doug Collins, who joined theWizards in April and also coached jordan for three seasons with the Bulls in the 1980s. Jordan will share the court with players he signed, drafted and traded for, including high school sensation Kwame Brown, selected No. 1 overall by the Wizards in June, and veteran for- ward Christian Laettner-a graduate of Duke, the archrival of Jordan™s alma mater, North Carolina. We'll see how fast the No. 23 Wizards jersey becomes the No. 1 selling jersey in the NBA. That probably will start today, Collins said. NBC said it would change its television schedule to include some Wizards games. Turner Sports will do the same, with TBS in line to air the season-opener. Tt will be fun to watch the great- est player ever match up against the NBA™s new generation of stars, such as Allen Iverson, Kobe Bryant, Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Ray Allen and others, NBC Sports chairman Dick Eber- sol said. Jordan has been in training for about six months, at first saying DUR hair? he was simply trying to lose the extra weight he had gained in retire- ment. Inspired by his friend Mario Lemieux™s successful comeback with the Pittsburgh Penguins, Jordan rig- orously worked himself into playing shape during the summer by hold- ing several invitation-only camps of pickup games with other NBA players at a gym in Chicago. an said he would hav sae one een eoninate Oct. 1.

His comeback certainly puts the Wizards in a position to make the playoffs this year, Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy said. With his announcement, Jordan immediately overshadowed the arrival in Washington of another winter sports star, Jaromir Jagr. The NHL™s_ leading scorer last season was acquired by the Capitals in the offseason. Jordan actually owned a piece of the Capitals, buying it when he acquired shares in the Wizards on Jan.19, 2000. The paperwork to sell his stake in both teams was completed Friday, and Jordan™s lawyers ironed out the last few wrinkles to clear the way for his comeback announcement. Jordan suffered three physical setbacks during the summer, raising doubts about whether his body could endure the rigors of an 82-game schedule. 1114 Evans St. 757-1559 é | | : $ BRILEY FARMS -GREENVILLE, NC!
