ECU Rolls By Bulldogs, 77-57

By WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports Editor East Carolina Universitys Pirates, despite a seemingly ho-hum effort, had little trouble rolling to a 77-57 non-conference basketball victory over Atlantic Christian College Monday night.

The game was the first between the two neighboring schools since the 1980-81 season, when ECU claimed an 81-58 victory in Minges Coliseum.

The Pirates scored the first 10 points of the game and were never in trouble after that, leading by as much as 25 points along the way.

away 11 while Reed Lose and Stanley Love each grabbed off nine. Derrick Boyd led ACC with eight rebounds.

The Pirate defense early was the key. They held the Bulldogs scoreless for the first, six-plus minutes of the game.

But at the same time, the Pirates missed a number of easy shots they hit only 42.9 percent in the first half and kept it fairly close when they could have blown it out early.

Marc Lacy slammed the ball through with 14:36 left for a 10^) lead before Todd Hampton finally scored on a layup to put the Bulldogs on the board.

We were a little concerned about a non-conference game at this point in the season, Pirate Coach Mike Steele said. We were afraid we might not be ready to play, but we were.

Only three times after that, however, did the Bulldogs cut the lead below 10. After Lose hit a 15-footer, Rick Henry made the first of a two-shot foul to trim it to 12-3. The two exchanged baskets before Kenny Murphy hit a 3-pointer to run it to 17-5.

I was pleased with the way we played on defense and in rebounding in the first half, he added.

In the second half, however, after building up a 22-point bulge at the half, Steele felt the Pirates lost some of their intensity.

Hill made the first of two free throws with 7:44 showing to up the lead to 24-11, the biggest lead thus far, but a 3-pointer by Hampton, followed by a Henry layup cut it back to eight once more, 24-16.

No Where To Go

In the second half, their athletic ability showed and their kids hung in there. We didnt block out as well and when we went to the bench, it was evident that the guys coming in were coming in to play and not work. We lost intensity.

It'was as close as the Bulldogs would come.

Hill hit a 3-pointer and Lose added a jumper then hit a 3-pointer himself. Hill added another trey from behind the arc and the Pirates were quickly out to a 35-16 advantage.

In the first half, the Pirates held a seven-rebound margin over the Bulldogs, but Atlantic Christian came back with a 20-18 edge in the second half. Gus Hill led the Pirates in the rebounding category, pulling

Two free throws by Hill, plus another 3-pointer by him ran the lead

to 40-18 at intermission.

Lose canned still another 3-pointer to open the second half, 43-18, but that

Carolina Monday night in womens itball action.

collegiate baskett

The teams played to a 34-34 tie in the first half before ECU moved out to an early five-point second half advantage.

William and Mary, though, rallied to take the lead midway through the second half and held off the Lady Pirates down the stretch for the win.

The Lady Indians held a 48-33 edge on the boards and that might have been the difference.

ECU falls to 8-18 overall and 2-9 in the Colonial Athletic Association. William and Mary advances to 8-14 overall and 2-7 in the league.

The loss dropeed ECU to last in the conference.

Senior forward Alma Bethea missed the first game oi her collegeiate career due to cartilage damage in her knee and is questionable for Saturdays game against UNC-Wilm-ington.

Irish Hamilton led ECU with 14 points while Gretta Savage added 13.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) Its trivia time.

Name the only team in the Big East Conference that has never gotten a bid to the NCAA tournament.

If you guessed Seton Hall, youre right. But maybe not for long.

Seton Hall, 18-10, took a major step toward landing its first NCAA bid Monday night. Riding an 18-2 run late in the second half and a career-high

32-point performance by Mark Bryant, the Pirates upset No. 6 Pittsburgh 89-72.

The NCAAs have been our goal since the beginning of the season, Bryant said. This win should help us toward that.

In other Top 20 games, it was No. 7 Michigan over Michigan State 77-67 in a Big Ten contest and No. 17 Bradley over Detroit 122-107.

Having the game on national television didnt hurt Seton Halls NCAA chances either.

An ESPN audience saw the Pirates outscore Pittsburgh 25-6 in the final 6:22, holding the Panthers to just one field goal during that span.

But the biggest factor was Bryant. Early in the game, the 6-foot-9 senior told his teammates he wanted the ball and they made sure he got it.

Bryant hit 13 of 22 shots from field, all six of his free throws and proved a force underneath on both ends of the courts, matching his season high with 16 rebounds.

During the second half, the Panthers talented front line of Demetreus Gore, Jerome Lane and Charles Smith combined for just 14 points. They all fouled out trying to stop Bryant.

It was easily the best game Bryant has ever played against us, Smith said. We knew that Seton Hall was going to put everything on the

line tonight and still we werent able to handle it.

Pittsburgh, 19-4, had entered the game with nine wins in 11 Big East games and had just moved up two

notches in the college basketball poll. Panthers coach Paul Evans felt for

the most part his team gave up in the final minutes.

This was a case of Seton Hall out-hustling and outworking us and wanting it more, he said. Our intensity was very poor. We may have been drained emotionally after the Georgetown game, but we shouldnt haveWn.

P.J. Carlesimo said the victory was his biggest in his six years of coaching at ^ton Hall.

To beat a nationally ranked team in a big game means a lot to us, he said. We played our way back into postseason contention.

Seton Hall, 6-7 in the Big East, has conference games against Villanova, Pittsburgh and Georgetown in the next two weeks, and then the conference tournament.

This is a big win for us, Bryant said. But I hope its not our only highlight. I hope there are more highlights down the road.

Gore, who suffered a hyperextended right knee in th game, led Pittsburgh with 18 points. Lane had 13 and Smith and Miller each added 12.

(See Roundup, B-2)

was to be the apex of the Pirate lead. They held it several more times, the last at 58-33 before Atlantic Christian nibbled away at the lead, trimming it down to as little as 13 on a couple of occasions.

The last time came at 58-55 with 2:00 left as the Pirates had trouble hitting at the line during the final minutes of the game. *

ECU shot only 13 for 25 from the stripe, including an 8 for 19 second half.

When Gus made his dunk, it seemed like everyone forgot what they were supposed to be doing. Were not good enough to play without intensity, Steele said.

Lose led the Pirates with 22 points while Hill finished with 19. All but one of the Pirates who played contributed to the scoring.

Hampton had 22 points to lead Atlantic Christian while Rob Castle added 10.

Atlantic Christian falls to 11-17 with the loss.

East Carolina, which snapped a 3-game losing skid with the win, climbs to 8-17 and will close out the regular season with two more games this week.

The Pirates visit William & Mary on Wednesday and then return home to entertain UNC-Wilmington on Saturday in a pair of Colonial Athletic Association games.

In order f(M* us to ensure that we dont finish in last place, Steele said, we need to win these last two games.

With the CAA conference race as

jumbled as it is, the last two weeks of play go a long way towards deciding who is seeded where. For ECU, avoiding a last place finish would enable the Pirates to not have to play the CAAs first-place squad, which at this moment is Richmond. But regardless, the one thing ECU does have in its favor is the fact that the Pirates have played all of the CAA teams close during their regular season meetings.

Blair Takes Gold In 500-Meters

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) - She is The Little Engine That Could, a feisty, freckle-nosed kid who just wont quit.

Shes Americas child, sponsored by the local cops, skating her heart out, winning on guts, singing the national anthem with tears in her eyes then celebrating at a beer bash with her family.

Bonnie Blair, who took her first wobbly steps on ice at 2 as the youngest of six skating children, Monday night glided to victory in world record time and captured the second U.S. gold of the Winter Games.

Wearing a sleek silver and orange racing skin, Blairs 500-meter race shattered the relative quiet of a day that saw the Soviets and East Germans forge farther ahead of the other countries in total medals with 18 and 14, respectively.

Fierce, frigid winds again caused the postponement of the 90-meter ski jump and prompted one official to complain of the psychological torture on the jumpy jumpers.

Host Canada played Sweden to a 2-2 tie in a hockey game that pleased neither team and hurt both as they enter the medal round against the favored Soviets.

Austrias Sigrid Wolf won the new womens super giant slalqm and kept

her country in third with three golds and seven medals overall. Neighbor and rival Switzerland, which was expected to dominate the Alpine events, has only one gold among its seven medals.

Sweden finally won a cross-country ski race, the 4xlO-kilometer relay, and joined the United States, Finlan and the Netherlands with four medals each.

For the Americans, though, the shortest event of the day was the best.

When I crossed the finish line, I think it was the happiest moment of my life, Blair said. When they played the national anthem, I think it was the second.

You try telling yourself its just another race, she said, but the jitters, the thrills, the crowds, the hype of the Olympics means its a lot different.

Her time of 39.10 seconds was faster than any Olympian, man or woman, until Eric Heidens winning mark of 38:03 in 1980. She was faster than Soviet Yevgeny Kulikov when he won the mens 500 gold in 1976, and less than a second off Soviet winner Sergei Fokichev in 1984.

Blair, smaller than her rivals but with a smile worthy of a cereal box.

Gllck, Bell Disagreeing?

Scooping It

By The Associated Press Toronto general manager Pat Gillick said Monday that George Bell has agreed to be moved from left field to designated hitter, but Bell, still at horn in San Pedro de Macoris in the Dominican Republic, disagrees.

I dont know anything about being a DH, Bell saici Monday. They didnt say that to me. Theyd better leave me alone. They know where I want to play in the outfield.

If they want to win, theyll play me in the outfield, said Bell, who led AL left fielders with 14 assists last season. If they want to lose, theyll play me at DH.

WORKING OUT THE KINKS I Bostons camp at Winter Haven, Fla., is filled with players in various stages of rehabilitation.

Dr. Arthur Pappas, the Boston team physician, was happy with the work of pitchers Dennis Oil Can Boyd and Bruce Hurst, who if healthy could combine with Roger Clemens to give the Red Sox one of baseballs best starting staffs.

Pappas said Boyd, who underwent right shoulder surgery last August after appearing in seven games, threw well, feels comortable and has no discomfort. All signs of his return to pitching on a regular basis by the start of the season are extremely favorable.

Hurst, 15-13 last season, seven of his last eight decisions, had mononucleosis that originally was diagnosed as arm fatigue. Hurst had a slight relapse in January.

Bruce is doing the same program as other pitchers with slightly less in-

Olympic Leave A

By EDSCHUYLERJR.

AP Sports Writer

U must be fun to participate in the Winter Olympics.

As for watching them, how rnany luge runs can you sit through, whats your attention span for the biathlon, how many paso dobles can you watch being ice danced, does ski jumping start to seem like a rerun?

The weekly sports question in the Sunday New York Times was: Whats the best winter Olympic sport?

Ice hockey, one reader said, although with the United States out of the medal round this year that sport has lost its attractiveness for most American television viewers. Downhill skiing, a couple of people said. One man even thought it was luge.

Then there was the reader who jumped on the question as though it were a fastball straight over the plate.

Whats the best Winter Olympic sport, he wrote. Contemplating spring training.

Its no longer necessary to con-

Viewing Can Lot To Be Desired

template. The Hot Stove League, that league of the mind that keeps fans busy plotting and arguing during the winter, is over. Spring training is here, meaning baseball, the best spectator sport of all team sports, is open for business.

Pitchers and catchers are in camp, and the rest of the players will be reporting this week.

The rhythms and rituals of baseball make each season as familar and comfortable as an old sports jacket or a favorite pair of shoes.

, Yet, each season carries its own distinctive mark.

Some of the elements that promise to give the 1988 season its special shading;

Billy Martin is back managing the New York Yankees. Its his fifth stint as George Steinbrenners field boss. How long will it be before Martin becomes eligible to be manager of the Yankees for the sixth time?

Jack Clark, the power outlet for the St. Louis Cardinals for several seasons, will be playing for Martin in New York. So the Cardinals hope to

have a new power plant in Bob Horner, who said sayanora to Japan, where he went to play after Atlanta failed to come up with enough yen.

The Cardinals, by the way, have sold 18,000 season tickets, which is 4,000 more than in 1987 when they drew more than 3 million fans.

- Kirk Gibson, a free spirit, finds himself in the Land of Free Spirits after several years in Detroit. Will he find himself in the hearts of Los Angeles Dodgers fans?

I didnt like his grooming and thought he was a disgrace to the Tigers, uniform, Tom Monaghan, Tigers owner, said in his Dominos Pizza newsletter.

Tommy Lasorda, the Dodgers manager, is looking for a pennant, not a fashion award

tensity, Pappas said. But I see no reason he should not be ready for the start of the regular season in April. Pappas also had favorable news on right-hander Rob Woodward, who learned three weeks ago that he had diabetes.

Everything seems under control, Pappas said.

WORKING OUT THE KINKS H In Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Jack Clark, who batted .286 with 35 homers and 136 runs batted in last season for St. Louis, batted against a pitching machine for 20 minutes after a New York Yankees doctor gave permission to test his injured injured ankle.

Clark, who tore ligaments Sept. 9, will not face live pitching until next week and will do no running until then.

I had no pain and the ankle really feels good, he said. Its really a lot of pressure off my mind.

In Miami, Don Aase tested the injured right shoulder that made him one of baseballs top relievers two years ago.

Aase, who had 34 saves two years ago, is coming off arthroscopic shoulder surgery after pitching just seven games last season.

He didnt throw Sunday because of back stiffness and reported some stiffness Monday, but threw at an estimated 85 miles an hour.

He looked good, pitching coach Herm Starrette said. He threw today as if he never missed anything. You never knew he would have had the shoulder problem the way he threw today. I told him to slow down a little bit. He felt good, and thats when youve got to worry about him doing more than he should.

And in West Palm Beach, Fla., Braves second baseman Damaso

Garcia, who missed 1987 with a knee injury after his trade from Toronto, arrived a week early.

Its a good sign that hes here now. But he has to show us he can play, Tanner said of Garcia, who will comiste for the second-base job with rookie Ron Gant.

At Chandler, Ariz., Paul Molitor, who had arthroscopic surgery on his eblow in the offseason, said he might move to second base to protect his arm.

Its not etched in stone or anything like that, but I think its already been decided, Molitor said. I think their feeling is that second base is where Id 1^ able to play the most games. Thats fine with me. I agree with them.

FREE AGENTS

Carlton Fisk reported to the Chicago White Sox camp in Sarasota, Fla., but said he may not be there for long.

Fisk, who signed a $700,000 contract with Chicago Ipst December, was made a free agent last month by arbitrator Thomas Roberts. Fisk. 40, has until March 1 to decided whether to terminate that contract.

Im here and Im ready to play, Fisk said. But my situation is the same as before. Im still a free agent.

Lance Parrish, one of the 1986 free agents, said he may leave the Philadelphia Phillies if arbitrator George Nicolau makes him a free agent.

It kind of boggles the mind to even think about it, said Parrish, who batted .245 with 17 homers and 67 runs batted in last season after six All-Star years with the Detroit Tigers.

I know what the possibilities

could be, and it might open up some things for me, Parrish said. But then, again, I dont know if I look forward to going through that again.

HOLD THE PHONE Pittsburgh general manager Syd Thrift wants a hitter and is willing to trade pitching.

We still have an open door and open telephone lines, said Thrift, who sent Tony Pena to St. Louis for three players just before opening day last season.

"Im willing to talk to anybody, Thrift said. "Ive been talking ever since I got here. Weve centered on the teams that have hitting and are looking for pitching. We have a lot of good, young arms that people would like to have.

MORE HONORS Andre Dawson, the National Leagues Most Valuable Player last season, was honored at Florida A&M, where he starred for three years. Although he left the school after three years to sign a professional contract, he urged students to stay enrolled until they are graduated.

Bird, Celts Help To Prolong The Knicks' Road Problems

VPI Hoop Coach Gets Second Chance

BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) - Virginia Tech basketball Coach Frankie Allens acknowledged mistake that resulted in a drunken driving arrest will not cost him his job, his boss said Monday.

Athletic Director David Braine said the contract Allen was expected to sign shortly has a sobriety clause that could lead to termination if another DUI arrest occurs.

We do not want to penalize anybody for a one-time mistake, Braine said.

A mistake has been made, and Coach Allen used poor judgment when he did not take the breath test, after his arrest in Salem early Friday, Braine said. He does have a sobriety clause in his new contract and theres no way in the world we are going to turn our back on him.

Allen said he had been drinking Thursday night while he was at a friends house discussing his new contract with an attorney. On the way to his Roanoke home, he crashed into a utility pole.

Its a possibility I fell asleep at the wheel when the officer came by, Allen said. Obviously. I made a mistake and 1 regret deeply the embarrassment Ive caused the university, the basketball program and, certainly, my family

Allen totalled a car leased for him by the university, but he said he was not injured in the wreck. He declined to comment on further specifics of the incident, saying the matter was pending in court.

I had had some drinks, Allen said. I will admit that.

But Braine said Allen was not a problem drinker.

Anybody who knows him knows that the most he usually drinks is one glass of wine, or, possibly, two." Braine said.

Thats correct, Allen said. I do not have a drinking problem.

Allen said his attorney, Chester Smith, would represent him Tuesday morning in Salem General District Court on the drunken driving charge. Allen also had a court date of April 5 set on the charge of failing to take a breath test. Both are misdemeanors.

Asked why he did not take the breath test. Allen said. "I'd just been involved in an accident. I was shaken up or whatever, and just chose not to.

Allen said his arrest did not seem to have affected his relationship with his players, and he hopes it will not harm future recruiting efforts. Braine said there had been no outcry against Allen from alumni in the wake of the arrest.

Braine said that since this fall when Allen took over the Hokie team for his mentor, former Coach Charles Moir. Allen had been working 16-and 18-hour days and he was exhausted.

The fatigue factor set in and he just fell asleep and had an accident, Braine said. "Coach Allen is a person of high moral character. He's a good person.

Bonnett Moves To Top Of Points Standings

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) Neil Bonnett used his victory in Sundays Pontiac Excitement 400 stock car race in Richmond. Va., to barrel to the front of the NASCAR Winston Cup standings, but the Hueytown, Ala., native said he isnt feeling entirely comfortable.

Dont get me wrong. Im glad Im leading the Winston Cup standings, Bonnett said. But I also know there are 27 races left to go. and I know whos behind me.

Bonnett holds a 30-point lead, 345-315, over second-place Bobby Allison, winner of the season-opening Daytona 500. Third is Terry Labonte with 303 points, followed by Sterling Marlin with 302, Darrell Waltrip with 300. Rusty Wallace with 297, Dale Earnhardt with 283, Ricky Rudd with 282, Bobby Hillin with 266 and Ken Schrader with 258.

I cant see any of those guys rolling over after just two races and being just a few points behind, Bonnett said. Right now, I guess Im like everybody else. Im figuring theres going to be a dogfight between maybe as many as five or six drivers all the way down the line.

Bonnett said itll take a few more races before anyone has a true indication of how the Winston Cup situation will shake out.

Richardson To Apply For Reinstatement

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Michael Ray Richardson, the New Jersey Nets guard who was kicked out of the NBA two years ago for cocaine abuse, will apply this week for reinstatement, the Los Angeles Times reported in Tuesdays editions.

Reinstatement requires approvel of the league and the NBA Players Association. League Commissioner David J. Stern said he will make a decision after the NBA conducts an investigation.

The NBA will have 120 days to make a decision on Richardson, who was banned on Feb. 25.1986. Richardson, who signed a four-year, $3 million contract with the Nets in 1985, was the first player under contract to be banned under the NBAs drug policy.

This will be the first time weve used this process, and were going to conduct a thorough investigation to determine his state of sobriety and reconstruct what he has done for the last two years, said Gary Bettman, NBA vice president and general counsel.

After the investigation is complete, hell meet with the director of security and the commissioner. The commissioner has a wide latitude in making the decision.

The Nets retain the rights to Richardson, who is playing for the Albany Patroons in the Continental Basketball Association.

Richardson said he has controlled his cocaine problem and has his life back together again.

Cashen Wavering On Johnson Decision

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) - New York Mets general manager Frank Cashen said last October that this would be Davey Johnsons final season as manager. Now, Cashens not so sure.

I never said Davey Johnson could never manage for me again, Cashen said Monday at the Mets camp in Port St. Lucie. Fla. We announced that Davey was relinquishing his post as manager at his own request. Would I have him back next season? Sure.

Johnson said last October that Cashen was forcing him out. Now, Johnson wont talk about the future.

But Cashen implied Monday that this was a misunderstanding.

"Davey is going to have to decide if he really wants to be here, Cashen said. Hes got so many other things going on in his life - his fishing camp, his real estate business - that its something hes going to have to come to terms with. ^

Because of Larry Bird,, the New York Knicks found another place to lose.

Bird scored 36 points, including two tiebreaking foul shots with 39 seconds left, as the Boston Celtics beat New York 95-93 Monday night.

The loss in Hartford, Conn., where the Celtics play three regular-season games, extended the Knicks team-record road losing streak to 18. New York is 1-23 away from home this season.

Winning on the road is tough, said Gerald Wilkins, who led New York with 24 points. The best teams, the Celtics and the Lakers, seem to be the only ones who can win consistently. We have to realize that we just have to play ball, just like we do at home.

The Knicks were not the only team having road woes Monday night.

Houston beat Philadelphia 119-106 as the 76ers tied a club mark with their 15th straight loss on the road. Golden State downed San Antonio 123-111, making the Spurs 4-19 away from home. Dallas downed Phoenix (5-21 on the road) 114-107 and Denver tripped Washington (5-20 on the road) 100-87.

Bird moved into'second place on the Celtics all-time scoring list with 16,964, nine more than Bob Cousy. John Havlicek is No. 1 with 26,395.

Bob Who? joked Bird. Well, Bob shot about 35 percent and I dont think I can take that (record) away.

Boston led 91-83 with 2:21 remaining before the Knicks, with Patrick Ewing scoring six of his 21 points, rallied to tie with 52 seconds remaining.

Then, during a timeout, the Celtics looked to their main man.

In the huddle, we diagrammed a play to get Larry the ball, Danny Ainge said. He got fouled and thats the way we wanted it to work out.

Bird made his two free throws with 39 seconds left and Dennis Johnson added two foul shots for insurance.

No. 17 Bradley 122, Detroit 107 University of Detroit players and coaches, despite getting beat, were among the many admirers of Hersey Hawkins after the Bradley guard scored a career-high 63 points. ^ Its really a pleasure to play against somebody like him, said Archie Tullos, who set a school record himself by scoring 49 for Detroit. I picked up some things that Im going to try to incorporate into my own game. Thats what I try to do whenever Im able to play against a spectacular player. Hawkins 63 points also broke a Bradley record the previous Missouri Valley Conference record of 62 points, set in 1960 by Cincinnatis Oscar Robertson against North Texas State. Hawkins, the leading scorer in NCAA Division I, went into the game with a :14.4 scoring average.

Coaches Pick Duke, Arizona

RALEIGH (AP) A group of college basketball coaches responding to a newspaper survey say Arizona and Duke are their choices to meet April 4 in Kansas City for the finals of the NCAA basketball tournament.

This is less than a guess, Nevada-Las Vegas coach Jerry Tarkanian told the News and Observer of Raleigh. Its like me trying to predict the weather forecast for Kansas City on the day of the finals. But what the heck? Ill guess anyway.

Winter Olympics ...

(Continued From B-l) felt going into the race she could beat East Germanys Christa Rothen-burger, who set the previous womens world record of 39.39 here in December.

This past week, I had gone a lap that I knew would be good enough to beat her, Blair said. Thats what I kept telling myself, that I could go faster. When I opened up faster than she did, I almost knew there that I had it.

When she finished she knew shed been fast, but didnt really grasp it until she saw the numbers on the board.

It brought tears to my eyes, she said of the flashing world record. I think I just got it on guts.

Guts or talent, Blair nipped by two-hundredths of a second the world record set a few minutes earlier by Rothenburger. East Germanys Karen Kania won her sixth Olympic medal by finishing third in 39.24 seconds.

On the same track over the same distance that the Heartbreak Kid, Dan Jansen, fell hours after his sisters death last week, Blair soothed some of the speed skating teams anguish.

Jansen was there again when Blair skated, after returning from his sisters funeral, but his eyes were more on his fiancee, Canadian skater Natalie Grenier, who finished 11th among 30 skaters.

Watching Blair from the stands were her parents, including a brother who has a brain tumor and her father, who missed her birth 23 years ago when he had to serve as a timer at a skating event.

Watching back home in Champaign, 111., were hundreds of fans.

Everybody just went crazy, said veteran police officer Jerry Schweighart, who was among 400 people viewing the action in a hotel banquet room.

He is past president of the Champaign Police Department Benevolent Association, which has helped sponsor Blair and held fund-raisers to help pay for her training expenses since 1982.

City Council Again Delays Vote On Flower Shops

By GREG LAUDICK ReHector Staff Writer Due to the absence of one Greenville City Council member, a vote Monday on whether to allow flower shops as permitted uses in the MD-2 (medical) zoning district was continued until the next council meeting on Feb. 29.

We, as weve indicated all along.

feel like wed like to have the whole council vote on the issue, said Steve Horne, legal representative for the petitioner, Clyde Simmons.

Council member Lorraine Shinn was absent from the workshop session, held in the third floor conference room at City Hall.

The request, which has been up for consideration and continued five

times since Oct. 8, is to amend sections 32-46 of the Zoning Ordinance to allow Florist Shop as a permitted use in the MD-2 zoning district. Currently, flower shops are allowed as special uses.

The MD-2 zoning district was designated for directly medical related uses. The purpose of the district is to create areas in which hospitals.

rehabilitation centers, medical offices and clinics may be compatibly mixed.

After being denied a special use permit from the Greenville Board of Adjustment, Simmons then went before the Planning and Zoning Commission, requesting to have floral shops allowed as permitted uses in the MD-2 zoning district.

On Sept. 15, Planning and Zoning unanimously agreed to deny recommendation of the request to City Council.

At Councils Feb. 12 meeting, in which all council members were present, a decision on the matter was delayed to allow the newly elected members to further examine and evaluate the issue.

At Monday ni^ts session council member Inez Fridley asked if any of the members needed any more information.

I would appreciate that very much, said councilman Rufus Huggins.

Council members, along with Mayor Ed Carter, then tossed about their personal observations and opinions concerning the medical district.

I think its important that we as council people be fair in whatever we do, Carter said. I think that the thing we need to do now is to decide this issue as soon as we can, and then send that whole plan back ... somewhere to planning and zoning or someplace. We need to come up with some permitted uses that would be fairly comprehensive and fair, and get rid of these special uses so as to ensure that we have consistent integrity of things in that area.

Huggins also expressed concern regarding the issuance of special use permits, and the possibility of inconsistencies in which favoritism could come into play.

Carter said, The mere fact that we passed the plan does not mean that we dont grow intelligent enough to realize there might be some shortcomings in that plan.

Im up here to be fair and I feel that weve got things happening out there that are not right and I think that we at some point, need to send this thing back and we need to answer some of these questions and

{irovide some consistency in our de-iberations.,

Carter cited the presence of banks

and lawyers offices within the medical district as evidence of inconsistencies.

Council member Bill Hadden said, I have some doubts about lawyers and doctors combinations also. Im not comfortable with it but I dont want to add to the problem by putting in more commercial property.

This piece of land by the hospital must be preserved as much as we can without too much commercialization, Hadden added.

Council member Nancy Jenkins said, Im sure six people are not going to agree on every single facet of the medical district plan. There were concessions made, I think we all agree to that. Personally, I would have liked to have passed it even stronger than it was but these con-session had to be made so the plan would be passed, and I feel proud about it and good about it and I think it is indeed, sacred. Im adamant about this.

Carter asked whether each council member will attend the Feb. 29 meeting and, after indications they would, continued the matter to the next meeting.

SHOCKED Greenville television evangelist Jim Whittington said he, like most people, was shocked at Jimmy Swaggarts confession of sin to his Baton Rouge, La., congregation Sunday. Whittington, speaking at a

news conference Monday in his office, said the incident should remind people to put their faith in God, not men. (Reflector Photo by Cliff Hollis).

Whittington Says He's Shocked

(Continued from A-1) vin Gorman of New Orleans, was believed to have provided church officials photos linking Swaggart to a prostitute. Last March, Gorman charged in a $90 million lawsuit that Swaggart had forced Gormans ministry into bankruptcy by unjustly accusing him of numerous adulterous affairs.

Swaggarts judgment on the world was so harsh and rieid, his

punishment is greater, Whittington said. He preached against things and people, Whittington said. He said ministers are not called to straighten things, but are called to preach the gospel.

V^ittington said he has never met Swaggart but has considered sending him a telegram. Preachers can quit a job or a career, he said, but you cant quit a calling.

Bond also reported to the growers that only 3.2 percent of the crop was under loan in 1987 and price supports will rise slightly in 1988, up to $1.44 a pound.

Wooten said he wants to use this term to work to ensure all the money in the capital equity credit account is used for growers. The cooperatives board of directors held part of the tobacco growers profits during the boom years between 1967 and 1973 to provide insurance for leaner times in the future.

Now there is more than $26 million dollars in the account, said Bond, and the money helps pay the cooperatives operating exjwnses.

When were finished paying bills we will have an amount of money left in the funds, said Wooten. While it may not be time to return dividend checks to every grower who paid into the account, we hope to use the money against future assessments. We want to make sure it is our money and we get it back, he said.

Assemblies of God television evangelist Swaggart denounced 11 months ago for commiting adultery, both should continue in the ministry, Whittington said.

Oral Roberts establishment of a university and Pat Robertsons cam-, paign for president have done just as much damage to television ministry as Swaggarts or Bakkers downfalls, Whittington said.

Preachers should be men of God, not men of the world, he said. The secular world can build universities and engage in politics and do it better, V^ittington said. I dont think the church is suppose to do it.

In other matters, Whittington said he is considering moving his headquarters from Greenville to Atlanta, Jacksonville, Philadelphia or some other city.

(Continued from A-l)

We have over an extended period of time discussed the possibility of relocation, prompted by plans of a new high school, he said. It could change the situation of the Boys Club somewhat being next to a high school.

Also, the club is considering extending its services to include girls, Emerson said. If that comes into being, well need more space.

But, our board does not have the intention to sell right now, Emerson said. We are looking for another site, and if that site is found, well go back to the school board and talk about selling the facility.

The board also discussed extending water lines to the Ayden Middle School football field for a sprinkler system.

After the open meeting. Deputy Superintendent John McKnight led the board through a long-range plan that provides projected facility, instructional and staff demands of the schools through 1992.

In discussing how capital funds become available to the school system, he said the 1987 General A^embly provided the Capital Building Fund for state school systems to build according to their needs, and the board of education along with the

Pitt County Board of Commissioners devised a plan to process the access funds, McKnight said.

The capital fund began in October 1987 and is financed through one-fourteenth of corporate income taxes. The state allocates money to the school systems based on average daily membership, and funds are matched locally in a ratio of $3 state to $1 local. As of January, the Pitt

County schools had $500,000 in this fund, McKnight said. '

The school system also competes for money in the Critical Schools Facilities Needs Fund, McKnight said. These funds are distributed to school systems based on their ability to pay for new facilities. The Pitt County schools are ranked in the middle statewide, he said.

Dont let them get away with some superficial, good-on-the-sur-face statements, said Lester, referring specifically to Pat Robertsons proposal to buy out tobacco allotments.

Lester said growers need to find out how far candidates would go in informing the public about the risks of tobacco.

Survey Shows More Saints

Dear Abby

Abigail Van Buren

DEAR READERS: Last June I invited you to participate in a survey. The question: Have you ever cheated on your mate? I received 210,336 responses: 149,786 from women, and 60,550 from men.

The results were astonishing: 22,468 (or 15 percent) of the female respondents said they had been unfaithful, and 15,743 (or 26 percent) of the men admitted they had cheated.

Putting it in more positive terms: 85 percent (127,318) of the women said they had been faithful and 74 percent (44,807) men claimed fidelity. Surprised? So was I. For all the recent publicity the media have given the cheaters, there are far more faithfully wed couples than I had surmised.

Face it, friends, well-behaved, law-abiding folks seldom make the morning headlines, the Dear Abby column or the evening news, even though they far outnumber the transgressors.

I had expected mostly postcards, but more than half the respondents wrote letters. And although this was to be an anonymous survey, upward of two-thirds of the respondents cheaters and non-cheaters alike signed their names!

The oldest respondent was a 99-year-old widower who described himself as a country doctor now retired. He wrote:

ive had three wives and cheated on all of them. Wife No. 2 was the woman I cheated with while married to Wife No. 1, who divorced me when she found out. When I was 66, Wife No. 2 died; then I married the nurse I had been cheating with off and on during my first two marriages. (I also cheated on her until she died.) 1 was only 79 and still going strong, but I decided no more wives for meonly compatible housekeepers.

The youngest respondents wrote from Indiana: Were both 18, weve been married for three months but we went together for nearly three years, and we havent cheated yet. This heartwarming letter came from Harrisburg, Pa.: Thanks for asking. I am proud to say that in the 45 years Ive been married to this wonderful woman, I have never cheated. And this includes two years during which I served with the U.S. Navy. I had no girl in any port! My upbringing and moral values would never have allowed me to live in peace should I have strayed. Furthermore, Im sure my wife can make the same statement. HARRY HOKE The most surprising revelation in this survey was the number of male bisexuals that surfaced. Although mental health professionals in the

past have estimated that 10 percent of the population is either gay or bisexual, my survey indicated that there are possibly twice that number. Many are married with fine families. 1 am a 67-year-old male who has been homosexual (or bi) since I can remember. Because of the social pressures of living in a small Iowa town in the 40s, I married and remained married until my wife died. While married, I cheated whenever I could find a willing partner.

From a Vermont wife: Married 36 years, we both had extramarital affairs. All mine were heterosexual, but Im not sure about his.

Im female, 49, now divorced. Fourteen years ago I had an affair with a close friend of my husbands. It lasted three years until I caught him in hed with my hushand. That ended my affair and also my marriage. - CONNED IN CONNECTICUT

Heres an upper: My husband and I just celebrated our 34th wedding anniversary, and if our sex life was any better, we couldnt handle it. I was 19 and he was 22 when we married. We were both virgins. I swear sex is the fountain of youth. My mother told me that the way to a mans heart was through his stomach, but 1 think I found a shortcut. Tomorrow: More quotes from the survey.

A couple of years ago, a driving school in California noticed that students did better in class when their instructors had a sense of humor. So the owners discarded their original business concept and went for the laughs. They hired 40 professional comedian/teachers and renamed their enterprise the Lettuce Amuse U-Laff N Learn Terrific School. Today, their business has increased 50 percent.

My question is, how long will these comedians be able to hang on to their sense of humor once theyve started teaching people how to drive? Look for a big turnover in personnel. I had a sense of humor once. Honest. Youre not going to believe this, but I actually used to do a funny column about raising children. And then one day my daughter said, Momma, Im going to be 16 in 39 months. When are you going to take me out and watch me drive? I already know how.

We all had a good laugh over that. Imagine, this small child whose only accomplishment to date was taking a bell out of a rubber ball in 13 seconds wanted to drive my car.

On her 16th birthday, we took our learn-to-drive act on the road for eight weeks. It wasnt the material. I told her, Our car should be painted red on one side and yellow on the other so that when we have an accident, all the witnesses can contra(iict one another. I said I could just see the headlines, Mother of Three Killed for Failing to Stop. We just didnt have the fun we thought we would.

Life was just beginning to have some meaning for me again when our second child said, Dads busy. Can you take me out to drive? Oh sure, I was amused when he put a diet cola in the radiator when it boiled over, and everyone laughed when I told my husband we had a phone in our car and he said, Cellu ar? and I said, No, its still in the booth with a person talking on it, but somehow it wasnt the same.

When the third child waved his temps at me, I tried to psych my humor up for it, but when the police-

At Wits End

Erma Bombeck

man stopped him for driving 40 miles an hour in a 25-mile zone and he said, Impossible! I havent been out an hour, something in me snapped. I lost it. Nothing was funny anymore... not the blaring radio that gave me chest pains ... the way he drummed on the steering wheel between lights ... the eight times he changed lanes in a city block ... and the carpet worn thin on the passenger side from my foot hitting an imaginary brake.

Comedians are used to living on the edge. In terms of risk and danger, theyre right up there with men who disarm bombs and are double agents for the CIA. When you think of it, there is only one difference between comedians who die working a small room in Indiana and those teaching sdmeone to drive a station wagon in California. The latter cant walk out

on you.

Charles R, Stith Snubbing Minority Issues Will Likely Backfire For Candidates

As I watch the 1988 presidential campaign uitfold and witness the

lack of attention given minorities and the issues that affect them, it calls to

mind the refrain from a popular protest song of the early 1970s: The campaign makes me want to holler, throw up both my hands.

That frustration is a result of the flood of reports of racism from Forsyth County to Jimmy the Greek to A1 Camranis to Howard Beach. It is incredible that the candidates continue to run their campaigns based on conventional political considerations.

Racism manifests itself through means not just violent and vocal, but also economic. Given that the economic manifestation has not been sufficiently addressed, it makes the silence of the candidates all the more danming. Though less dramatic than what we were told about the other racial incidents, pie economic aspect is no less staggering:

The average white family in

America is worth about $40,000, the average black family is worth about $3,200.

^most half of the black and Latino youth 18 years old and under live in poverty.

Minorities are still unemployed at almost twice the general rate. When employed, they earn a little more than half as much.

The candidates seem to be approaching this political season from

Analysis

the pers^tive of business as usual. We have seen bl

1 black mayors snubbed and any number of invitations to address the minority community refused or ignored.

From a moral perspective, the candidates lack of response to the racial violence - Howard Beach is by no means an isolated incident - is a sad commentary on their sense of our struggle over the last 30 years to bring our nation together across color, class and community lines. In addition, given the volatility of the economy and the tenuous economic

position of minorities and women, there is no excuse for this deafening silence.

It suggests that if they as leaders are unconcerned, so should be the country they seek to lead. Their silence suggests that people of color are somehow less important.

The lack of campiaign activity in the minority community is ill-conceived. How soon candidates seem to forget that Democrats regained control of the U.S. Senate by riding the crest of a wave of black electoral support. History has shown.

for Democrats at least, that a large turnout is essential for victory. How do they expect the minority community to get excited about their campaigns when candidates are so unexcited about minority concerns?

Most of the recent polling data in

dicates that members of minority communities, and the black community in particular, no longer see themselves as dyed-in-the wool Democrats. Thus, it is a Democratic error to cynically assume they have the vote because minorities have nowhere else to go; for the Republicans to likewise not pursue the minority vote would be an error because it would represent a missed opportunity to court a constituency looking for a candidate and a party that cares.

Im sure there are some who will point to Jesse Jacksons presence in the presidential race as the reason the other candidates are ignoring the minority community. My response: That is a cop-out.

poverty and violence that people ot color have to bear certainly is something to which Jackson might be more sensitive. But these are not just Jacksons issues. These are American problems. All of the candidates have anobligation to address them.

Beyond the moral obligation, when one applies a numbers criteria, the strategy to ignore the minority community still does not add up. For both parties, with the presidential field as crowded as it is, whatever percentage of the minority vote they get could mean the difference between a win, place or show. For Democrats facing the inevitability of a second or third ballot for the nomination, alienating potential second- or third-ballot support is unwise, to use Jacksons presence as a rationale for ignoring the minority community is not only a poor excuse, it is a significant mistake.

While it is important to point out

the highly visible incidents of racism, it is just as important to highlight the . less sensational, but more insidious, silence on these issues by those who seek to lead this country. We must hold them accountable and challenge them on the matters of equality, justice and economic opportunity.

Mistrust Impedes Peace Talks

GUATEMALA CITY When cease-fire talks between the Nicaraguan government and the rebels were suddenly suspended Friday by their mediator. Cardinal Miguel Obando y Bravo, each side immediately accused the other of negotiating in bad faith while seeking to influence the decisions of the U.S. Congress on military aid for the rebels.

sion, reopen a dialogue with the opposition parties and revise its draft law. He called for the contras to gather their guerrillas into cease-fire zones for a 30-day truce.

The Sandinista delegation immediately reacted negatively to the proposals.

But accounts by participants indicate that it was not pressure from ke up the negotiations, but rather longstanding mistrust

sources close to the Sandinistas said. They reportedly saw them as biased on

liel f

Washington that broke up among the Nicaraguans involved: the leftist Sandinista government, the cardinal and the rebels, called contras.

Obandos deep doubts about the Sandinistas sincerity led him to call off hastily negotiations that, by admission of members of the cardinals mediating team, could have continued if he had waited only a few hours.

The Sandinistas suspicions that the cardinal is partial to the contras and that the contras are obeying instructions from the Reagan administration to avoid any cease-fire led the Sandinistas to fumble the significant diplomatic advantage they wielded as this weeks round of cease-fire negotiations opened. That advantage came as a result of the U.S. House of Representatives vote Feb. 3 against new military aid for the contras.

The talks that began here Thursday were the second round of face-to-face cease-fire negotiations prompted by a six-month-old Central American peace process. The current round was to last three days, but the cardinal ended it abruptly at 2:30 p.m. Friday, citing the governments reluctance to approve a five-point proposal he had offered unexpectedly Thursday night.

The contras are pressing for broad democratic reforms in Nicaragua before they will accept a cease-fire, while the government argues that those reforms are already under way through the regional peace process and wants only to work out the technical arrangements for a cease-fire.

After the crisis Friday both sides now say they are ready to resume the negotiations as early as this week. But the cordiality of earlier rounds is shattered.

Obandos proposal, which he said was designed to speed up the talks, called for the government to free political prisoners, allow full freedom of expres

the side of the contras. President Daniel Ortega, consulted in Managua by telephone, regarded them as an attempt by the cardinal to force the government to negotiate political, rather than technical, issues with the contras.

During a 30-minute meeting Friday with the cardinal, The government never indicated it would give a p^itive response. The government said it had decided not to take up the cardinals proposal, said Msgr. Bosco Vivas, a member of Obandos mediation team.

The Sandinista delegation actually had a fallback position accepting Obandos plan, but the cardinal had already canceled the session by the time they were able to present it. Sandinista negotiators, wary of the cardinal, said they refused to give their acceptance earlier, because they wanted to draw up a formal written document detailing exactly what they were accepting.

Ironically, the Sandinista delegation failed to see that the cardinals proposal also dismayed the contras, who did not want to pull back their forces into special zones. The Sandinistas refused to grasp that the cardinal gave them the best chance theyve had so far in these talks, commented Azucena Ferrey, a leader of the Nicaraguan Resistance, the contra alliance.

During most of the Sandinistas eight-year-old reign, Obando, Nicaraguas Roman Catholic primate, has been their most influential critic. Before the formulation of the Central American peace plan, Sandinista leaders frequently insulted him personally and harassed his clergy and followers. Yet Ortega asked Obando to mediate so as to lend credibility to the cease-fire talks.

Up to now, Obando has been restrained in his role, but he appears to have taken offense at the Sandinista maneuvers here. By suspending the talks, Obando thrust himself forcefully into the center of the negotiations, putting the government on notice that if he is to continue lending his prestige he wants rapid results and will not tolerate delays of even a few hours.

The toughest challenge in framing a new strategic-arms agreement

may be the problem of sea-launched cruise missiles, or SLCMs in arms-

control jargon. At a time when the [id

U.S. and Soviet navies are building large arsenals of non-nuclear SLCMs, how can we verify compliance with limits on nuclear ones?

As the United States and the Soviets thicken defenses thereby increasing risks to pilots and planes both are likely to rely increasingly on conventionally armed SLCMs. This will make it essential to be able to distinguish these from the nuclear-armed SLCMs that a strategic-arms agreement would limit.

Counting and verifying nucleararmed SLCMs is difficult. The missiles are only about 20 inches in diameter and less than 30 feet long easily moved about, disguised and concealed. Furthermore, from the outside, a sea-launched cruise missile with a nuclear warhead looks identical to one that carries a conventional warhead. In a world containing thousands of SLCMS, constraining nuclear warheads to a small fraction of the missile force is a daunting task.

Schemes proposed for counting SLCMs involve either tagging nuclear missiles with a non-removable transmitter or placing monitoring devices on every ship, in both navies, that could launch a SLCM. Tagging in this fashion, however, is probably unacceptable to the two navies, b^ause the tags must broadcast a signal that might give away the positions of ships at sea, possibly ships about to go to war.

In any case, tagging cruise missiles that are already nucleararmed misses the real problem that is preventing conversion of conventionally armed SLCMs to ones carrying nuclear explosivs. That job must be done, moreover, without compromising the operational security of

the ships that carry the missiles and without intruding significantly on current operating procedures. Technology developed for other purposes provides precisely the tools necessaj7 to meet these criteria.

American nuclear weapons are currently protected from misuse and theft by devices called Permissive Action Links or PALs. Before a weapon protected by a PAL can be detonated, a special code must be inserted into an electronic lock. If a mistake is made when the code is punched in, the PAL allows a small number of retries.

But a PAL goes much further in protecting a nuclear weapon. It can sense when an unauthorized attempt to get inside the bomb is being made; it can count the total number of wrong tries to insert firing codes; and if someone seeks to tamper with the weapon, the PAL can render the bomb and its finely machined nuclear components utterly useless. If the PAL receives the proper codes, it figuratively retreats from the picture and allows use of the weapon.

Just as PALs have guarded against unauthorized detonation of a nuclear warhead, they could seal a canister containing a conventional-payload SLCM and preclude the installation of a nuclear weapon. How might such a system work?

in its canister. All of this could take place in full secrecy. Inspectors from the other country would then use passive radiation detectors to assure themselves that the canister contained no nuclear weapon it is virtually impossible to shield the launch canister of a nuclear payload well enough that the neutrons and gamma rays from its warhead would be undetectable.

inspection of ships, as well as traffic into and out of repair facilities. Before the INF treaty was signed, our plan would have been impossible. Now, it appears to be only a small step beyond the agreed procedures for counting missiles and distinguishing the nearly identical stages of the (permitted) SS-25 from its (forbidden) sibling, the SS-20.

Finally, inspection teams from [luldin......

both sides would install the seals and set the combinations using random numerical sequences generated independently by each side. With the seals locked in place, the missile would be logged as a conventional SLCM.

A further r^uirement of a safeguard system is that an unauthorized attempt to open the canister must residt in the functional destruction of the missile. Since the guidance system is the most critical and expensive component, the sealing mechanism could contain a well-

We could attach, for example, a PAL lock to any SLCM canister intended to contain a conventional warhead. The lock could reauire the insertion of a 24-digit code, half held by an American inspector, the other half by a Soviet counterpart. Such a lock would require, on average, literally thousands of years to pick by trying random combinations.

Since canisters must occasionally be opened, if only to perform scheduled maintenance, inspectors from both sides would have to unlock the PAL and note the return of the missile for repairs, modification or maintenance. When the missile was-FINAL WEEK-

SBI To Examine Records Of State's Agent In Japan

RALEIGH (AP) - The State Bureau of Investigation has been asked to examine the expense accounts of North Carolinas industry recruiter in Japan in the wake of a preliminary review by the State Auditors Office.

Based on the allegations, there could be a substantial amount of funds involved thousands of dollars, State Auditor Ed Renfrow said Monday. We are not in a position yet to quantify it because we

dont have access to all the records to make that determination.

Walter R. Johnson III of Cary, senior international development specialist for Japan, was suspended from the N.C. Department of Commerce Jan. 18, pending the outcome of state investigations.

Renfrow said a preliminary review by his office of airline, hotel and restaurant bills raised enough questions to turn the matter over to the SBI.

The allegations are that expense

accounts have been falsified all kinds of expenses such as meetings, airline tickets, hotels, meals, etc., Renfrow said. State officials refused to say who made the allegations.

Renfrow said his office has hired an international accounting firm in Tokyo to help examine the overseas expenses.

Johnson, 47, is expected to return to the United States. He has been with the N.C. Commerce Department for 10 years.

Thornburg Says CP&L Errors Inflated Nuke Plant's CostsIN THE STATE

Commander

CLINTON, N.C. (AP) - Col. Nathaniel H. Robb Jr. has taken command of the North Carolina Army National Guards 30th Infantry Brigade, part of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization force which would be sent overseas in the event of a crisis.

Robb received a Bronze Star and an Army Commendation Medal for Valor for active dury in Vietnam. Robb, a commercial real estate broker, replaces Brig. Gen. Kenneth R. Newbold of Magnolia, who has commanded the 4.400-man brigade since February 1983.

The Clinton-based brigade consists of Troop B, 196th Cavalry, headquartered in Elizabethtown; 1st Bn., 119th Infantry of Ahoskie; 1st Bn., 120th Infantry of Wilmington; 1st Bn., 252nd Armor of Fayetteville; 1st Bn., 113th Field Artillery of Charlotte; 230th Support Battalion of Goldsboro; 881st Engineer Co. of Rockingham, and brigade headquarters company of Clinton.

Each battalion consists of units in several towns.

ABC Chairman

RALEIGH (AP) - Gov. Jim Martin has appointed 28-year-old William Paul Powell Jr. as chairman of the N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Commission effective Feb. 16.

Powell, of Lake Junaluska, will receive an annual salary of $61,656 and oversee activities of the state ABC Commission staff, including the commission's licensing and operations unit. Powell replaces Charles Knox, who resigned the post last week to spend more time with his family, he said.

Powell was appointed as a member of the ABC Commission by Martin in 1986. He later resigned that post to become deputy commissioner of the commission in November 1987.

The ABC is a three-member commission responsible for the administration and enforcement of state alcoholic beverage laws.

Plane Crash

RALEIGH (AP) - The states chief medical examiner says it would have taken tremendous cushioning of an American Eagle commuter plane to save the lives of 10 passengers and two crewmembers who died when the plane crashed Friday.

The cause of death can only be stated as massive trauma, Dr. John Butts said Monday. Butts, whose staff was performing autopsies on the victims at his Chapel Hill office, said the examinations would offer little help to investigators searching for ways to make plane crashes more survivable.

Butts said autopsies had been finished on all but one of the victims

by mid-afternoon Monday. Because of the condition of the bodies, identities were determined primarily with dental records, he said.

World Trade

RALEIGH (AP) - North Carolina produced a trade deficit in 1987, importing more goods than it exported, but the deficit was small and contrasted sharply with the record trade deficit for the entire United States, North Carolina State University economists say.

If the other 49 states had performed as well as North Carolina in 1987, the U.S. trade deficit for the year would have been cut by over 88 percent, Edward Erickson, director of the schools Center for Economic and Business Studies, said Monday.

In 1987, North Carolinas exports were valued at more than $4.46 billion, compared to more than $4.70 billion in imports, Erickson said. Meanwhile, U.S. exports for the year totaled $249.8 billion, compared to $424.1 billion in imports.

CIA Probe

WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Jesse Helms. R-N.C., is asking the CIA to investigate charges that the agency provided personal data to Panamanian strongman Manuel Antonio Noriega about Helms and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy.

In a letter to CIA Director William Webster, Helms said he had received reports that the CIA had provided similar information on other senators to officials in other foreign countries.

The North Carolina Republican said maintenance of files on members of Congress would be illegal and improper. The transfer of such information to another government would call into question the integrity of U.S. intelligence institutions, Helms wrote.

Super Collider

ROXBORO, N.C. (AP) - State officials told 150 people in Roxboro Monday night that they would be paid fair market value if the proposed superconducting super collider requires condemnation of their land or otherwise affects their homes.

If their land or homes had to be taken for the $4.4 billion federal scientific project, the state would buy the property at its fair market value and also might pay additional costs such as moving expenses and higher mortgage costs for a new home, officials told Person County residents.

At the first of seven public meetmgs to explain how that would work, some citizens criticized officials for not allowing questions from the audience.

RALEIGH (AP) - Fred Talton of Raleigh has been named North Carolinas controller, replacing Dr. Farris W. Womack of Chapel Hill, Gov. Jim Martin announced Monday.

The position of controller was created by the General Assembly on in 1986.

RALEIGH (AP) - Carolina Power & Light Co. wants customers to pay for its delay, waste and management error that inflated the pricetag of the Shearon Harris nuclear power plant by $856 million, state Attorney General Lacy Thornburg says.

Quite simply, CP&L could have built the plant faster, it could have built it cheaper, and it is not fair to expect ratepayers to absorb the excess cost of the plant, Thornburg said Monday at a news conference.

He said he was filing testimony with the N.C. Utilities Commission

asking the panel to prohibit CP&L from passing to customers any of the alleged Harris plant cost overruns.

That would mean reducing a $205 million rate increase pending before the commission by $89 million, Thornburg said. A commission hearing on the proposed increase is scheduled to begin April 14.

CP&L spokesman Wayne Ennis said Thornburg had based his assessment on the report of a consultant who adopts an extremely simplistic and adversarial position. He has misused available information to make calculations and

comparisons which are simply in error, Ennis said. In addition, his conclusions are based on 20-20 hindsight.

Dont flog a dead horse! If it is

obvious that your line may not succeed, cast around for an alternative.

When this hand was played in a recent tournament, most pairs reached six spades on an auction similar to the above. Souths opening two-club bid was artificial and strong, and Norths first response ws negative. Three clubs was a second negative, and his jump to four spades not only confirmed trump support, it denied first- or second-round control in any side suit. Thus, Souths jump to six spades had some element of risk, but to bid less would have been cowardly.

After a trump lead, most declarers pursued losing lines. When dummys seven of trumps held, they used the entry for a diamond finesse. West won and returned a trump. Declarer cashed the ace of diamonds and ruffed a diamond, then ran all his winners in the hope

that something would develop. Nothing diddown one.

Others went for a better chance. They drew two rounds of trumps in case there was an even break. When that did not occur, they tried to cash three high hearts. Unfortunately West ruffeddown one again, since declarer still had to lose a diamond.

Only one player found the winning lin. After winning the first trump lead in dummy, he led the queen of clubs and discarded a heart

from hand! In with the ace of clubs, East tried a diamond shift. Declarer took his ace, cashed one high trump and the ace-king of hearts. He then entered dummy with the ten of trumps, and the three good hearts on the table brought his total to 12.

WE.AK SEASON Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd, as David Addison and Maddie Hayes in ABCs Moonlighting," are finding themselves out of the news this season. Fans have found the series a disappoint

'Moonlighting' Loses Its Glow As Fans Suffer Through Season

By JERRY BUCK AP Television Writer

LOS ANGELES (AP) - If loyal fans of ABC's "Moonlighting" are gluttons for punishment, that may be an asset for watching the show *this season.

Not within memory have television viewers had to put up with so much and gotten so little.

"Moonlighting" is the most disappointing show this season, and for those who loved the show it is a terrible thing to see it self-destruct right on the screen.

What made this show go. what gave it its charm and appeal, were the scenes between Cybill Shepherd as Maddie Hayes and Bruce Willis as David Addison. These two opposites, irresistibly drawn to each other in a love-hate relationship, made the screen sparkle with their witty repartee

But Ms. Shepherds pregnancy-caused a dilemma for the shows producers. Instead of shooting around it, as most series do. they made it a part of the story. Allyce Beasley, who plays Miss Dipesto. was also pregnant, but on the show she ignored it Besides, with her layered look, it was hard to tell.

It might have seemed a smart

move at the time to incorporate Ms. Shepherds pregnancy into the story. But it has turned into labor for the viewers.

Maddie, telling no one she was pregnant, went off to Chicago to brood with her parents. David was left to deal with her absence.

"Moonlighting" was left to slowly twist in the wind.

It was embarrassing watching the show deal with her absence. It squirmed and made up stories like someone caught in a lie. The whole point of watching Moonlighting" was to see those two carry on like Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn in Woman of the Year. The cases they solved were merely an excuse to get them together so they could disagree.

And when Ms. Shepherd and Willis finally got back together, it wasnt any better. Forget the witty dialogue. "Moonlighting turned into Days of Whine and Roses.

Although Ms. Shepherd had twins, Maddie is still pregnant. She told David the babys not his.

But the clincher was when she announced she had married a stranger a whole new character, Dennis Dugan as a businessman she met on the train from Chicago on impulse.

'L.A. Law' Creators End Fight Over Issues, Money

By DIANE HAITMANN

L.A. Times-Washington Post News Service

HOLLYWOOD Terry Louise Fisher, co-creator and former supervising producer of NBCs hit series L.A. Law, recalled with a laugh Monday that she and her former partner, Steven Bochco, had once discussed producing an episode about a Hollywood TV writing team who split up and take their differences to court.

The episode never made it to the screen, but it happened to Fisher and Bochco. Only now, in the wake of signing a new three-year television and feature-film development deal with Walt Disney Productions, can Fisher discuss the personal and legal battle that began last November, when she was barred from participating in L.A. Law following spats with Bochco over creative issues and with 20th Century Fox over money.

Fisher filed a $50 million lawsuit; a three-month tennis match of insults and innuendo ensued. For legal reasons, Fisher and Bochco could not talk, so everyone talked about them. Finally Fox announced Feb. 5 an amicable resolution of all disputes with Fisher, whose association with ABCs Hooperman, which she also co-created with Bochco, also ended. Fisher announced her move to Disney Sunday.

Fisher said in an interview that she is under a gag order from Fox not to disclose the financial details of her settlement (Im very happy; I think it was fair), but she wants the world to understand that, despite the mudslinging that occured, her break-up with Bochco was just one of those things.

At this point. Ive just become terribly philosophical

about it, she said. We did wonderful work together, and it was just a relationship that wasnt working. Its kind of like a divorce; you go through a bad period, then

you want to remember the good things.

The only way I can characterize it now is, its a relationship like any other relationship. There were conflicts that arose, and sometimes its just better for everyone to move on.

Fisher never allowed herself to worry that her highly publicized fight with the influential Bochco would result in her being blackballed by the TV industry.

Obviously thats what the other side tries to appeal to (in a legal battle) - that fear, she said. But I knew I was talented, and I knew that I could make money for people, so I knew I would always be able to work. I just wasnt going to give in to that fear.

Fisher added that she wants to squelch speculation that what happened to her was a result of Holl^ood sexism; in fact, she noted that L.A. Law is currently looking for another woman producer. The only thing she resented during the legal dispute, she said, were implications that her companion and press spokesman, Charles Bennett, was controlling her career and was responsible for her financial demands of Fox.

The Darth Vader boyfriend that was all pretty silly,she scoffed.

One thing that I dont want women to feel is... that they cant take on the big boys, because theyll get you -that was the one thing I was upset about, she said. Some people think (the TV industry) is an old boys network. Ive never thought so. I got a lot of really upsetting letters from women who viewed it that way.

Father, Son Zappas Vie For Rock Grammy Award

Maddie, married on impulse? Maddie, the woman who wouldnt cross the street on impulse? David is standing there with egg on his face, trying to grin through it. What a low blow. What a letdown for the audience.

Where is the famous Dallas shower when we need it? Tell us the season was only a dream and not a nightmare.

Maddie and David have become an unfunny, bickering couple who have overstayed their welcome. It was nice while it lasted, but the magic is gone.

Meanwhile, ABC has removed another show from its schedule. Sledge Hammer!" a spoof on all those macho detectives, started out in the Nielsen cellar and never got out. The show deserved better.

It made its debut in September 1986 against CBS Dallas and NBCs Miami Vice. After that introduction to obscurity, ABC transferred the show to 8 oclock Thursday, where it went up against NBCs The Cosby Show. There it stayed until it was moved again, back to Friday against Dallas and Miami Vice."

David Rasche stars as the title character, a one-man anti-crime' crusade, whose idea of crime prevention is shooting a jaywalker

By MARY CAMPBELL Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK (AP) - The best rock instrumental performance category in this years Grammy Awards has an unusual set of nominees: Bruce Springsteen; Stevie Ray Vaughan; Frank Zappa; and Herbie Hancock, Dweezil Zappa and Terry Bozzio for a cut from the Back to the Beach soundtrack.

It is believed that this is the first time a father and son have comj^ted for the same Grammy, which will be presented by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences on March 2 at F^dio City Music Hall.

It might be the only competition for the two Zappas. Otherwise, its strictly a family affair. Zappa, leading an 11-piece band, started a tour on Feb. 2 in Albany, N.Y. During a concert in Manhattan, his children, Dweezil, Moon, Ahmet and Diva, took part in the finale. Wife Gail stayed offstage.

Dweezil Zappas new, second album is My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama. Ahmet, 13, has acted on some TV shows. Diva, who can sort of sing but shes no Billy Idol, is eager to enter show business, her dad reports.

I conduct with a baton, says Zappa, probably the only leader in rock who does. I have a little apparatus on my mike stand, a holster for my baton.

Zappa also does something else at concerts that few if any other rockers do: Audience members can register to vote. Zappa contacted the state registrar for voting and League of Women Voters. Both were delighted to cooperate, he said. Among 3,000 concert-goers in Albany, 325 registered and 50 took registration cards.

I tell the audience, I dont care how you register but just get in there and do it. I tell them, If you dont register, you cant vote. If you dont vote, democracy doesnt work. And you dont have any right to complain if you dont get what you expect out of government,he said.

Zappa, whose Grammy nomination is for his album, Jazz From Hell, has been a strong opponent of efforts by the Parents Music Resource Center to have rock lyrics censored. He and other artists testified at Congressional hearings in 1985, which resulted in leaving it up to individual record companies whether or not to

label albums as containing possibly offensive lyrics.

Asked whether any of his lyrics may cause a problem on the tour, Zappa replied, I cant imagine any trouble with lyrics. I always heard that America is a free country. However, one of the dates is at Patriot Center, a 5,000-seat hall connected with a school in Alexandria, Va. Acts that appear must be approved by a three-man board, he said. Two approved our act. The third man ... contacted our agent at ICM Artists and said people from the PMRC live around there and wasnt I the man who caused all the trouble for them and he didnt approve the concert there.

He was informed he would face a rather large lawsuit if he censored me from performing at this publicly funded college because he was afraid of offending ladies connected with the PMRC.

Zappa finds such controversies to be a nuisance. Its a business reality that must be dealt with during these Reagan administration-end times, he said.

He came to power promising con

servative, smaller government and lower taxes and delivered massive government, massive deficit and massive taxes. This man has been the biggest disaster for the conservative cause this country has ever seen. Hes tried to replace fiscal conservatism with moralistic conservatism, keep people worried about abortion, prayer in schools and pseudo-religious realities so they wont really concentrate on what happened to their bank books.

NEW YORK (AP) - The stock market opened narrowly mixed today in more active dealings after sweeping ahead in the previous session.

The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials, which was propelled to its highest level since early January on Monday, slipped 0.83 to 2,039.46 after the first half-hour of trading.

Advancing and declining issues were running < about even in the overall tally of New York Stock Exchange-listed issues, with 528 up, 527 down and 480 unchanged.

Volume on the Big Board came to 39.75 riiillion shares as of 10 a.m. on Wall Street compared with 28.62 million shares at the same point on Monday.

In a new report today, the government said orders to U.S. factories for durable goods plunged 2.8 percent in January, the biggest decline in a year.

But that statistic has been volatile, and many analysts expected a decline in January because it had risen by an unusually large 4.1 percent in December.

Among active issues in the early going on the NYSE, Philadelphia Electric was unchanged at 19^8. Eastman Kodak was downs at 40-'g, Polaroid was up m at 3Us and International Business Machines was up I4 at 1154.

Fire Damages Nursing Home Laundry Room

Only minor damage occurred and no one was injured as a result of a laundry room fire Monday night at the University Nursing Center in Greenville, according to Raymond Carney, assistant fire chief.

Carney, who said the alarm was received at 9:18 p.m., said three water pumpers and two rescue vehicles remained at the facility until shortly after 10 p jn. He said principal damage was to the dryer, with smoke damage reported in the laundry room and nearby hallway.

Carolyn Sipes, director of nursing at the center, said the patients did real fine. We have fire drills on a regular basis, and both the patients and the staff responded beautifully, with no panic.

Ms. Sipes said some patients were moved temporarily from one section to another to avoid the smoke from the laundry room fire. Smoke darage was confined to the laundry room and a hallway area, she said.

(Continued from A-1)

his associates to resist the request of those outside the church to respond to questions. Brother Swaggart has been in complete cooperation with the Assemblies of God and has pledged to work within the structure of the church, Janway said.

Like Swaggart, his replacement, Rentz, 49, is from a religious family of the rural South, with little formal education.

Rentzs mother. Edna Cooper, said her son, whose stepfather was an Assembly of God minister, was saved at 10 and began attending church services regularly.

A decade after Rentz became a railroad engineer, he quit to become pastor of the Bethel Assembly of God church in Hialeah, Fla.

He is a tremendous pastor, said the Rev. David Lively, who took over the church when Rentz left. He knows people and cares for them.

The Rev. James Robison, a TV evangelist for 26 years, said early today on ABCs Nightline that he expected Swaggart could weather the crisis.

I believe that he can have a greater ministry than hes ever had due to the strengths that he can draw from having gone through a crisis and a fall which is tragic, but its not

the end of the world, Robison said.

Photographs allegedly showing Swaggart with a prostitute reportedly were given to church officials by New Orleans evangelist Marvin Gorman, who had once filed a $90 million suit charging Swaggart with unjustly accusing him of numerous affairs.

Gormans attorney Hunter Lundy said of the photographs, I know they exist and theyre relevant.

'The Washington Post reported Monday, quoting a source who spoke to a Jimmy Swaggart World Ministries board member, that Swaggart said he did not engage in sexual intercourse with the woman but paid her to perform pornographic acts.

One church official said Swaggart had confessed that his sexual misconduct had continue for years.

He tried and tried and tried through prayer and fasting and everything he could do to lick it and it beat him, the Rev. Glen Cole, pastor of the Capital Christian Center in Sacramento, Calif., told a Sacramento television station Sunday.

Council Agrees To Keep City-Operated Bus System

ByGREGLAUDICK Reflector Staff Writer

Greenvilles City Council unanimously voted to deny a request to privatize the citys bus service at a workshop session conducted Monday night at City Hall.

ATE Management and Service Co., headquartered in Cincinnati, had^ submitted the proposal to operate the citys bus system under private enterprise.

Its cheaper for us to keep it and the quality of service will be much higher than it would be under their program, said council member Bill Hadden.

According to City Attorney Mac McCarley, the proposal by l ATE came as a result of the city responding to the pressures of both state and federal funding sources to privatize transit services whenever possible.

Approximately two months ago, the city requested bids and proposals from private transit contracting firms. ATE was the only firm to submit a proposal.

The Greenville Public Transporta

tion Commission listened to a presentation from an ATE representative and considered city staff cost estimates and quality factors before voting on Feb. 18 to recommend the denial of the request.

Its a good recommendation, commented Hadden.

Council also unanimously voted to appropriate $5,500 to Rivers and Associates for a property survey of River Park North. According to Glen Whisler, interim director of engineering and inspections, the

purpose of the survey is to establish the boundaries and obtain an accurate map of the park.

In other action, council unanimously approved amending the budget ordinance to appropriate funds for two additional planning positions.

Council also heard citizens petitions regarding the need for additional animal control officers, warning devices at the Brownlea Drive railroad crossing, and also concerns regarding recycling.

Trustees Schedule Meeting On Parking

Trustees of East Carolina University havepscheduled a special infonnation session Friday to study campus parking and investigate plans to deal with the problem.

The full, 13-member board is scheduled to meet with its finance and facilities committee at 1 p.m., an hour before a regularly scheduled quarterly meeting of the board.

Finance and facilities chairman Samuel J. Wornom said a plan approved by a one-vote margin Dec. 5 was a short-term approach to the parking problem. The trustees, by a 7-6 vote, approved borrowing up to $750,000 to i^ovide an additional 950 parking spaces in surface lots.

At the time of the December vote, Wornom said more parking facilities are going to be needed later. '

The trustees defeated by a 5-7 vote a substitute motion by trustee J. Craig Souza of Raleigh calling for a study of the costs of constructing a high-rise parking deck on camp^us and its effect upon parking permit fees.

Under the plan which was approved in December, parking permit costs would be doubled to $50 a year.

Fundamentalist Parents Lose Textbook Fight

By AL KAMEN L.A. Times-Washington Post News Service

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court Monday let stand a lower court ruling that parents do not have the right to insist that their children be excused from classes whose textbooks offend their religious beliefs.

The court, without comment and with no justice recorded in dissent, declined to review a decision last August by a federal apreals court in Cincinnati that said the First Amendments guarantee of free exercise of religion did not require schools to allow optional attendance of classes using books that promote anti-Christian themes such as feminism and pacifism.

The courts action, involving a highly publicized case from Hawkins

County, Tenn., marks the third loss for fundamentalists in a series of recent court battles over the place of religion in the public schools. It was seen by both fundamentalists and their opponents Monday as a decisive setback in the effort to reshape school curricula to reflect fundamentalist beliefs.

Last June the high court, acting in a case from Louisiana, ruled 7 to 2 that it was unconstitutional for states to require equal time for teaching evolution and creation science.

And in another celebrated textbook battle, a federal appeals court in Atlanta last August overturned a district judges ruling that banned 44 textbooks from Alabama public schools because they promoted the religion of secular humanism. That ruling was not appealed.

A dark cloud of religious oppression looms over Americas schoolhouses today, said Beverly LaHaye, head of Concerned Women for America, which filed the original lawsuit on behalf of seven fundamentalist families.

Religious tolerance in our nations classrooms has been dealt a devastating blow, she said, because the high court let stand a ruling which allows school boards to force students to participate in activities contrary to their religious beliefs.

But Timothy Dyk, a lawyer for the Hawkins Country school board, hailed the courts decision. A victory for the parents, he said, would have meant serious problems in the schools throughout the country, because every time someone raised an objection to part of the cur

riculum... the school board would have had to litigate.

The result, he said, would have been a chilling effect on textbook publishers, the teachers in the classrooms and the schools. Dyk said Mondays action means the schools are going to remain secular.

Fridays case, Mozert v. Hawkins County Public Schools, stemmed from a 1983 lawsuit in which parents challenged an elementary school reading series published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston in use in county schools. The parents cited scores of offensive passages, including selections from a play based on The Diary of Anne Frank, which they said implied that all religions are equal.

They also objected to the textbook treatment of The Wizard of Oz,

saying it diminished the divine role in determining human qualities.

After what was billed as the second Scopes trial, U.S. District Court Judge Thomas G. Hull of Greeneville, Tenn., sided for the most part with the parents, ruling in October 1986 that the public schools had unconstitutionally required the use of textbooks offensive to the religious beliefs of fundamentalist Christian children.

Hull ordered the public schools to pay private school tuition and other costs to the families. He also ordered the schools to excuse the children from reading class, and allow parents to teach their children at home, but he did not grant the parents requests that the schools supply alternative textbooks that would not offend their beliefs.

The three-judge appeals court panel, unanimously reversing Hull, said the use of the reader series did not create an unconstitutional burden under the free exercise clause when the students are not required to affirm or deny a belief or engage or refrain from engaging in a practice prohibited or required by their religion.

The appeals court said there was no evidence that the conduct required of the students was forbidden by their religion. Rather, the witnesses testified that reading the Holt series could or might lead students to come to conclusions that were contrary to teachings of their and their parents beliefs. This is not sufficient to establish an unconstitutional burden of their First Amendment rights.

Robertson Boosts Loans

WASHINGTON (AP) - Former TV evangelist Pat Robertson is borrowing heavily going into the critical Super Tuesday primaries, taking out a massive $5.5 million loan for his presidential campaign, financial reports show.

Robertson ended January with $5.5 million in the bank, but his campaign had $6 million in debts as he far outs-pent any other candidate on the Super Tuesday contests involving 20 states on March 8.

Rival GOP contenders George Bush and Bob Dole, on the other hand, remained in good shape.

Bush, the overall fund-raising leader, ended January with $9.2 million in cash on hand and $811,029 in obligations, while Dole had $4.2 million and $654,269 in bills to pay, their latest financial statements show.

Neither had any loans outstanding, but the other GOP contender. Rep. Jack Kemp of New York, took out $750,000 in loans to get through the Iowa and New Hampshire contests this month.

Among Democratic candidates, money leader Michael Dukakis had the most cash available, $4 million.

Besides his loan, Robertson reported contributions of $1.3 million during January. His report also listed as receipts the $6.5 million in federal matching funds that he applied for but had said he might not use.

Robertson had said he was philosophically opposed to the pub ic financing system and his staff said he would only use matching funds if he needed to stay competitive.

Robertsons campaign did not return calls Monday night to answer questions about the loan, by far the biggest borrowing of any campaign for the 1988 election.

Robertson paid off a short-term loan of $1.5 million that his attorney has said was secured with his matching funds, his report showed.

The latest financial reports were due at the Federal Election Commission on Saturday, but Robertson had

not filed his by Monday. Aides said it was still being worked on Monday, and released summary pages Monday evening. However, details of the loan were not included.

The sizable expenditures on this months Iowa and New Hampshire contests and subsequent spending toward Super Tuesday are not reflected in the new reports, which cover the period through Jan. 31.

Robertson has spent more than any other candidate against the overall spending ceiling which is set by election law at $27 million for the primary season. He reported spending $17.6 million against the cap.

Bush, conversely, while raising more money than any other candidate, has been watching his budget and has spent the least of any Republican contender against the cap.

He reported spnding $10.7 million against Uie ceiling, compared with Kemps $12.8 million and Doles $13.5 million.

Britain Makes Weinberger Honorary Knight of Empire

LONDON (AP) - Caspar Weinberger is going to Buckingham Palace to receive an honorary knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II, the highest royal honor Britain bestows on foreigners.

Todays ceremony doesnt mean the former U.S. defense secretary will become Sir Caspar - that accolade is reserved for the queens own subjects - but its jBritains way of saying thanks for being an exceptionally good friend.

The 70-year-old Weinberger, who counts Winston Churchill among his heroes, also has to forgo the ceremony of kneeling before the queen as a commoner, being tappd on both shoulders with a sword, and arising as a knight. That, too, is only for British subjects.

But he does receive the insignia for a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire - the highest order of chivalry for a foreigner during a private ceremony, and can

use the initials GBE after his name.

When the award was announced on Feb. 1, reporters asked Weinberger whether he was ready to be called Sir Cap. He replied: Good God, no. Our constitution has some harsh words about titles. But I really am flattered.

The queen approved the award on the recommendation of Foreign Secretary Sir Geoffrey Howe, who work^ closely with Weinberger before he retired last Nov. 5 after nearseven years as President Reagans lefense chief.

The Foreign Office said Weinberger was being knighted in recognition of his outstanding and invaluable contribution to Anglo-American defense cooperation, especially for his unfailing support and assistance during the 1982 Falkland Islands War.

The United States provided critical intelligence and logistical support to Britain during its 74-day campaign to

Drifter Wounds Two Police Officers, Takes 6 Hostages

By DAVID SEDEO Associated Press Writer .

SAN ANTONIO, Texas (AP) - A drifter shot two plainclothes policemen with one of their guns in a struggle on a downtown street, then took refuge in an office building where he held six hostages before surrendering, police said.

Police Officer Ed Gorrell, 33, was shot in the head and was in serious condition today after surgery at Brooke Army Medical Center, hospital spokesman staff Sgt. King Lance said.

Officer Onofre Serna, 26, suffered a graze to the Qhest area and was in stable condition at Medical Center Hos-^ pital, hospital spokeswoman Ruby Salazar said.

After the scuffle Monday night with the policemen, the gunman ran into a nearby office building and took the hostages, police spokesman Sgt. Paul Busk^e said.

The officers stopped the individual... and a struggle ensued. One of the officers lost his weapon. (The suspect) picked up the weapon and several shots were fired, Buske said.

Police Chief William Gibson said the man made no demands when he took the hostages. Gibson said he didnt know immediately why the officers stopped him.

The gunman fled into the Travis Park Plaza building, took two people hostage on one floor, released them, and then took three other people hostage on the third floor. The three escaped when the gunman walked into another area to take a sixth hostage, Buske said.

The gunman surrendered to police shortly before 10 p.m., about an hour after he released the last hostage, following talks with police negotiators, said Buske.

Gorrell and Serna were part of a downtown foot patrol aimed at deterring street crime.

Navy Secretary Resigns, Attacks Carlucci's Policies

oust Argentinas invasion force from the British-ruled South Atlantic islands. Weinberger insisted Monday that his role was a comparatively modest, small one.

Buckingham Palace said only a very few of the 55 other Americans who have received honorary knighthoods were made GBEs. The most famous Americans who have received honorary knighthoods were made Knights of the British Empire or KBEs, a lower order of chivalry.

They include former Secretary of State Dean Rusk, industrialist Henry Ford III, philanthrimists Paul Mellon and John Paul Getty II, actors Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Sidney Poitier, former Sen. J. William Fulbright, D-Ark., and food magnate Henry J. Heinz II.

American-born violinist Yehudi Menuhin also received an honorary KBE, but his award was changed to a full knighthood after he gained dual British-lI.S. citizenship in 1985, and he is now known as Sir Yehudi.

By NORMAN BLACK AP Military Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Navy Secretary James Webbs abrupt resignation blew the lid off his split with Defense Secretary Frank Carlucci and revealed bitter infighting at the ' Pentagon as it grapples with budget cuts after years of Reagan-era increases.

Webb resigned Monday and decided to air some dirty linen on the way out, accusing Carlucci of needlessly sinking the administrations dream of building a 600-ship fleet.

He further accused Carlucci of ordering him to lie about internal budget fighting, saying the defense ^ chief had written him a note saying he should deny news stories reporting it was the Defense Department and not the Navy proposing to mothball ships.

Now, Im not going to deny the truth, Webb said.

This building needs to be led.... It needs some vision, he continued. If I had a piece of advice to give to Secretary (Carlucci, it would be to spend a lot more time with the top leaders in this building.

Hes been spending a lot of time with the State Department and a lot of time on the (Capitol) Hill. I think they (Pentagon leaders) need to feel his vision and to understand what he believes in.

Carlucci declined to respond Monday, issuing a written statement saying only that he learned of Webbs resignation with regret.

The Pentagon added in a separate statement, though, that if Webb decided he could not defend the departments decisions on the budget, then under the circumstances, he has done the honorable thing.

An administration official who asked not to be identified said Carlucci was recommending that William L. Ball III, the assistant to the president for legislative affairs, be nominated to replace Webb.

The White House might announce Balls nomination today at the same time it formally accepts Webbs resignation, the source said.

The 42-year-old Webb, a highly decorated Vietnam combat veteran who earlier worked as an assistant defense secretary, said he had been contemplating resignation for some time but didnt make up his mind until Sunday.

The final impetus, he said, was the submission to Congress last week of the fiscal 1989 Pentagon budget. Carlucci shaped it without regard to the advice of the Navys top civilian and military leadership, Webb said.

I cannot support the reductions that are in this bucfget, he said.

The massive military buildup under President Reagan, which has seen the Pentagons budget more than double, is coming to a halt because of concerns about the huge federal deficits run up during the Reagan years.

Carlucci, following up on a deficit-reduction agreement reached by the White House and Congress in December, submitted a fiscal 1989 budget proposal totaling $299.5 billion, slightly more than for fiscal

1988 but unlikely to cover inflation. It cuts the Navys original 1989 spending plan by $12.3 billion and calls for, among other things, mothballing 16 older frigates.

Those ships are at the heart of the dispute that erupted Monday. Webb said they didnt have to be retired and that if they were, the Navy could never reach its goal of deploying a 600-ship fleet. The Pentagon maintains the Navy will end fiscal 1989 with 580 ships and can still reach 600 by fiscal 1992.

Reagan, former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, and Webbs

predecessor, John F. Lehman, all have insisted that the Navy needs a minimum of 600 warships to satisfy U.S. commitments around the world 'without requiring overly long deployments.

Webb, in his letter of resignation and in a meeting with reporters, said he had provided Carlucci with three different plans for cutting the necessary dollars without mothballing the ships. At the very least, he said, the 16 frigates could be transferred to the Naval Reserve at a cost of less than $100 million and stay on standby.

Truth In Preference To Fiction-Remediation Shared Problem

Remediation in North Carolinas university system is a problem for which the states public schools and colleges share responsibility for resolving.

C.D. Spangler, University of North Carolina system president, approached the issue correctly and head-on when he stated remedial training is costing the state big bucks and must be addressed by both public schools and universities training teachers.

It is an easily approachable problem, however, if the two education entities cooperate by communicating minimum standards and better preparing teachers to educate students.

The need for catch-up courses in the states colleges is startling and expensive. In fall 1986, 207 remedial English classes were taught, along with 148 remedial math courses, to 6,662 freshmen more than one-fourth of first-year students. Annually, this effort costs the university system an estimated $3.2 million.

That figure in itself is enough to warrant attention and action. But beyond the financial strain, the problem should be addressed because of the educational liability it represents.

If college bound students require this amount of remediation, that places the entire education system in question. Every student, to succeed in the work place, needs a command of the English language, basic math skills and understanding of scientific methods and principles. When college bound students, theoretically the best-educated high school graduates lack these skills, that fact raises serious doubts about the quality of public education in the state.

Minimum college admission requirements correctly reflect a need for basic skills but it is clear many students high school instruction does not adequately prepare them. Clearly, the university system must go beyond complaining about the quality of students preparation and participate by strengthening teacher education programs.

The states colleges must make sure high school teachers and counselors know the minimum entrance requirements and can communicate these standards to students early enough to help them select correct courses,

The university system must also produce teachers more proficient in the subject areas they teach. Knowledge and theory should be more effectively combined with practice and experience.

The schools, however, must make certain the content of college bound courses reflects the future education plans of the students taking them. Comprehension problems should be addressed in high school, not postponed until college.

The blame for remediation lies with both public schools and universities. More attention must be focused on preparation if the number of college catch-up courses is to decline.Time To Leave

It is past time to get all Americans out of Lebanon.

Citizens have been warned not to travel to Lebanon. Still, there are Americans there on official duty.

That came to light when Lt. Col. Richard Higgins, a United States Marine, disappeared from his vehicle. He is presumed kidnaped by fanatical forces in Lebanon. Higgins was part of a 60-man observer group attached to the United Nations interim force in Lebanon.

The capture of Americans is a prize for the terrorists who apparently roam almost at will in Lebanon. There are brave Americans who will go there if ordered and certainly there are Americans serving in other trouble spots of the world. An American in Lebanon, however, is asking for it. Our nationals cannot be protected there and it seems virtually a matter of time until any American is kidnaped.

That danger is too high a price to pay. Hostages have been held prisoners for years in Lebanon with the only contact being propaganda video tapes sent back to the civilized world.

The degree of peril cannot always be the criteria for where United States military or diplomatic personnel may be called on to serve. But it makes little sense to call upon such personnel to serve in a futile situation such as Lebanon where they can accomplish little while facing such a huge risk of losing their liberty.

Past events have demonstrated that the U.S. government can do little to free Lt. Col. Higgins. Even a military intervention would likely end in failure. There seems little reason for United States citizens to be in Lebanon now.

Turning The Corner On Drugs

When John C. Lawn, the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, wants to get a sure laugh inside his agency, he says Weve turned the corner.

What can I tell you, weve turned the corner, Lawn quips, as an aide recites record-setting arrest statistics at a recent meeting in Washington of the two dozen top officials of the DEA. They all laugh. Weve turned the corner again, he says in Fort Lauderdale in remarks to 58 supervisory agents from the DEAs huge Miami Division. They all laugh. He says it at a conference in Toronto of the special-agents-in-charge of the 20 DEA field offices in the United States and Canada, and again in Vienna at a gathering of senior DEA agents from Europe and the Middle East. More laughter.

The corner in the drug war hasnt been turned, of course, and claims to the contrary have been a quiet gallows joke in federal law-enforcement circles since at least 1973 when President Richard Nixon, in ail seriousness, proclaimed publicly, We have turned the corner on drug addiction in America, a statement that proved to be incorrect in the extreme. Weve turned the corner remains the DEAs internal laugh line today because it expresses in a stab of bitter, dark humor the frustration the DEA feels as the lead law-enforcement agency in Americas frustrating war on illegal narcotics.

Measured by the usual standards of law-enforcement effectiveness arrests and convictions of significant criminals the DEA is a phenomenal success. But when judged by the more fundamental question of whether the nation is winning the war on drugs, the agency must be rated a failure. The failure is so pervasive and urgent, in fact, that the DEA is launching a new, alternative strategy a dangerous, highly classified, when-all-else-fails effort to stop drugs overseas, at the source.

'Despite one of the largest mobilizations of law-enforcement power in history, America's drug .problem is worse than ever in many respects,'

In a dichotomy perhaps unprecedented in the annals of American law enforcement, most current statistics of both success and failure in the drug war are records. Nearly two decades into Americas second and worst narcotics epidemic (the first lasted roughly from 1885 to 1920), drugs have spawned perhaps the most virulent crime wave in U. S. history.

The harder the DEA pushes, the more drugs seem to enter the United States. Last year, DEA agents seized nearly 40 tons of illegally imported cocaine in the U. S., up from two tons in 1981. They also seized 682 illicit drug-processing laboratories, almost four times the number of labs seized six years earlier. They confiscated just over $500 million in cash and other assets belonging to drug traffickers, more than the DEAs entire budget for 1987, as well as 4,964 firearms, including 249 automatic weapons. On their face, these statistics reflect an exceptional achievement a deft melding of new laws, bigger budgets, and the skill of thousands of people. Yet they are a profile of defeat.

Despite one of the largest mobilizations of law-enforcement power in history, Americas drug problem is worse than ever in many respects, and worse overall than in any other nation in the industrialized world.

One in six working Americans uses drugs regularly, and the problem is even more acute among the unemployed, the poor and the young, especially school dropouts. More drug-addicted babies are being born than ever before. Cocaine is more readily available in the U. S., and at a lower cost, than in several years. The 40 tons that the DEA seized last year are believed to represent only a

small portion of the total smuggled into the United States. Meanwhile, the narcotics mafia of Colombia, the source of most cocaine, continues to function freely and appears to be stepping up a campaign of terror against Colombian government officials who try to combat it. On Jan. 25 the drug mafia kidnapped and assassinated Colombias attorney general, the latest in a series of extraordinarily brazen acts of violence.

The DEAs efforts to combat the drug epidemic have been hampered by two factors that make the battle singularly difficult:

Drugs arent simply a crime problem, like bank robbery or income-tax evasion. Drugs also are a public health and medical problem, and, in a larger sense, a social dilemma that seems to invite a variety of possible approaches such as education and therapy having little to do with law enforcement. Until the demand for illegal drugs eases, the DEAs efforts to reduce the supply may be doomed to failure.

The drug war has also been a bureaucratic turf war. Partly because of the lack of consensus on how best to attack the drug problem, the government bureacracies responsible for fighting drugs havent received the kind of stable political support the FBI and IRS get in waging their more conventional and less controversial wars.

Federal narcotics agents in the U.S. have carried a total of 30 different badges in the nearly three-quarters of a century since the federal government outlawed drugs in 1914. After decades of intermittent scandal, malfeasance and mismanagement, the DEA emerged in 1973 when the Nixon administration, responding to a narcotics

epidemic already well underway, created a new superagency from several contending agencies. The result was paralysis at the top of the narcotics bureaucracy. Internecine warfare raged.

During the Reagan years, the drug bureaucracies at large have continued to expand. In addition to the DEA and FBI, 11 Cabinet departments and about three dozen agencies currently are involved in the drug war at the federal level - the State and Defense Departments, the CIA, the National Security Agency, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of Agriculture, the Customs Service, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the Coast Guard, and many others. And of course state and local governments and a myriad of private groups are in the fight as well.

As the drug war on U.S. streets and in South American jungles grows more violent and preoccupying, we risk losing sight of the DEAs less-visible but equally urgent mission education, which most experts consider an essential long-term key to reducing drug abuse. The DEAs Sports Drug Awareness Program provides guidance and training in drug education to the nations 48,000 school athletic coaches, who in turn are in direct touch with over five million youths, many them role models in their schools. This and similar federal programs, though vastly underfunded by the Reagan Administration, may be contributing to the possible recent decline in cocaine use among high school seniors. Americans broke a devastating drug habit in the 1920s, its more difficult this time.

Darkness For The Decade Of Bruce

Bruce: laird of the single-syllable given names, heralding no bland dullard of a John or a Bill or a Bob but the latter-day nomenclatural spawn of Robert the Bruce, Scotlands first king and a Rambo among monarchs who swung his mace first and asked questions later. Bruce: a name apart, reserved for no more than one or two yclept aristocrats per schoolyard, per team, per office. Bruce: Out of the way, Tom, Dick and Harry, here comes somebody special.

Somebody special from antiquity right up to the mid-60s, when the lamps suddenly dimmed and flickered out all over Brucedom. The cultural star chamber that decides such matters convened - as it has periodically over the eons - and arbitrarily reordered the book of names. Elevating Duane and Arnold and Maurice from their hoary clown status to poker-faced respectability. Declaring Ralph and Irving funny. Erasing Roscoe and Horace altogether. And then singling out Bruce, as if in spiteful revenge against its eminence over the centuries, to become the new booby prize.

We Bruces resisted at first, pretending not to notice as the TV comics started weaving our name into their routines for sure-fire laughs. We pretended not to get the joke when the joke all around us was simply the name Bruce, a five-letter synonym for... whatever, at any given moment, the Bruce-baiter wanted it to be a synonym for. A sissy. A priss. A poseur. A wimp. A nerd. A loser. An all-purpose, ball-jointed joke butt with a thousand and one social and household uses. For a Bruce to bleat otherwise was only to prove just how feckless a twit was anyone named Bruce; no wonder you pronounce it the same as obtuse.

By the 70s, we once-proud Bruces had been driven down into the nomenclatural catacombs where the Dudleys and Percys and Verns skulk. To be a Bruce meant that you drove a Rambler, hailed from Peoria, wore white socks with a blue suit, chimed your arrival with a tinny little toy lepers bell of a name. And God, maybe our tormentors were right. Say it over and over and listen: Bruce does make a comic swooshing sort of sound. It starts off as if it were going to be brute but ends up rhyming with harmless joke words: sluice, goose, juice. The French cant pronounce it. The diminutive, Brucie, conjures images of someone who lives in a crawl space. Famous Bruces in history, few and far between and not nearly famed enough, offer thin consolation. Bruce Cabot?

And then, about the time the Me Decade began fading away, a new decade suddenly, gorgeously, inexplicably began to bloom and keep on blooming. That halcyon time, the Bruce Decade. Springsteen! Willis! Sutter! Beresford! Hornsby and the Range! Nomenclatura knights errant, turning hair shirt into battle pennant! Promising by the sheer power of renown to wipe that smirk off Americas lips! Could Bruce cologne. Sir Bruce sports togs, Bruce Again Tops List of Favored Boy Baby Names, be far behind?

Bruce Power had been unlocked at last, now nothing was beyond our reach.

And thus it was with an air of inevitability if not predestination that at precisely high noon of the Bruce Decade, a rangy guy with piercing eyes and a dream rode out of the Southwest, bent on nailing a shingle with Bruce on it to the White House for the first time in history. What John F. Kennedy had done for Catholics, what Jimmy Carter had done for goobers, Bruce Babbitt was about to do for Bruces.

But the Bruce-baiters had only been lying low, awaiting their moment. They saw to it that the shining hope of Brucekind who entered Iowa as prime presidential timber would exit as Elmer Fudd. Earnest, droning fuz-zy-minded-one-worlder also-ran of a would-be candidate, thy name is what else? By New Hampshire it was all over but the chortling. And today, not only the Babbitt crusade but the Bruce Decade is history.

Call it sniveling self-pity if you like. Call it paranoid blithering. And if you want to call me and commiserate, call me any time. But call me Lance.

Strength For Today

A professor was speaking with a group of colleagues at the opening of college in the fall. We begin our orientation this evening, he said. And then he added with a smile for the freshmen, not for us.

One might well question the professors easy assumption that just because people have reached midme age in in an educational environment

iney no luiigt;i net*u ui icuua-tion. To orient means.to set right with reference to facts or principles.

If the world did not change as the years passed, perhaps a one-shot orientation course taken early in life would suffice for our needs. But we must constantly reorient ourselves so that we can help solve the problems of a changing modern world. We never get so old that we can afford to stop learning.

ECU Investigates Assault Report

East Carolina University officials are investigating an incident involving allegations of assault by several ECU football players, the university said in a news release today.

The alleged incident occurred at Scott Residence Hall Sunday morning, the ECU release said. No charges have been filed.

Under investigation by the campus public safety unit, the division of student life, the athletic department and the chancellors offce are allegations of assault by several male students upon a female visitor to the campus.

Head football coach Art Baker said some of the students being investigated are members of the ECU football team. He said that they have been suspend

ed from the team and restricted to their residence hall and classrooms pending outcome of the investigation.

The names of those involved in the investigation were not released.

In a related incident, campus police on Monday morning arrested former ECU basketball player Derrick Battle of Rocky Mount near Scott Residence Hall. He was charged with having a shotgun on campus in violation of state law. University officials said the charge against Battle was filed with the district attorney for disposition.

According to Brooks Oakley of the Pitt County Sheriff Department, Battle was never jailed. He apparently had bond posted immediately.

Swaggart Ordered Into Rehabilitation

By GUY COATES Associated Press Writer ALEXANDRIA, La. (AP) -Repentant television evangelist Jimmy Swaggart must stop preaching for three months and undergo two years of rehabilitation, including counseling, church leaders decided after questioning him about his sexual misconduct.

We accept his confession of

rific incidents of a moral failure, Janway, Louisiana District superintendent of the Assemblies of God said late Monday night. Based on his detailed confession and the evidence we observed of true humility and repentance, we have offered him rehabilitation.

Janway made the announcement after Swaggart met here for more than 9 hours with the state council of the nations largest Pentecostal denomination.

The Executive Presbytery of the 2 million-member denomination in Springfield, Mo., can approve or modify the rehabilitation plan, said Everett Stenhouse, assistant general superintendent.

Swaggart made no comment as he left Alexandria late Monday nor as he arrived in Baton Rouge on his twin-engine plane.

The evangelist, whose Sunday church services are videotaped for distribution in more than 100 countries, will be relieved of his duties as co-pastor of the Family Worship Center in Baton Rouge, Janway said.

Co-pastor Jim Rentz confirmed earlier that he would take over as chief pastor of the church, where SwaMart tearfully confessed his sin Sunday before a crowd of more than 7,500 people.

Swaguart did not describe his miscoMUCt, and the state council urged him not to.

Janway said Swaggart would be counseled and supervised weekly by three members of the Louisiana

District Presbytery diuring the two-year rehabilitation. He will be required to submit quarterly arid monthly remrts to church officials, Janway said.

Again no doubt, much speculation and rumor will find its way into the secular media, but for the church, the body of Christ, such speculation and rumor has no place, he said.

We urge Brother Swaggart and

BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - The nations mainstream Shiite Mi^lem militia captured the three gunmen who kidnapped a U.S. Marine officer in southern Lebanon last week, security sources said today.

The sources said the three gunmen are among dozens of suspects the Amal militia rounded up while searching for Lt. Col. William R. Higgins but that the man who masterminded the U.N- observers abduction remained at large.

The gunmen, who were not identified, could not give their leaders whereabouts or say where Higgins was being held, said the sourcs, who spoke on condition of not being further identified.

Reporters in southern Lebanon last week reported that the Amal militia had detained more than 40 suspects, but this was the first indication that the three gunmen were among those * held.

The same sources said today that at least two Israeli soldiers were killed and several wounded when their armored patrol was ambushed by Arab guerrillas in the southern Lebanese village of Braachit at sundown Monday.

It was not clear whether the ambush and kidnapping were related.

Higgins, 43, of Danville, Ky., was kidnapped south of the ancient port of Tyre on Wednesday. The security

sources said the three gunmen were captured in a dragnet in the two days following the abduction.

Among the detainees are the three gunmen who seized Col. Higgins and forced him into the first getaway car, one source said.

Another three suspects who were being held monitored Higgins his movements before the abduction, the same source said.

The source provided the informa

tion when asked for confirmation of an NBC News report that the three kidnappers had been captured.

The gunmen were being held by Amal in Tyre and had been interrogated, but they were unable to provide useful information because their leader had kept them in the dark, the source said.

The security source played down the significance of the gunmens detention, saying the unidentified

Whittington: 'Total Shock' At Confession

By CHERIE EVANS Reflector Staff Writer

Jimmy Swaggarts confession of sin Sunday to nis congregation in Baton Rouge, La., should remind people to put their faith in God and not in men, television evangelist Jim Whittington said Monday during a press conference in his office in Greenville.

Swaggart delivered his tearful confession before stepping down from the pulpit. The Executive Presbytery of the Assemblies of God on Monday ordered Swaggart not to preach for three months and to undergo two years of counseling and rehabilitation.

Whittington said his response to Swaggarts confession was the same as most everybody elses -total shock. Swaggart was considered a person of high morals because of his message, he said.

I looked to Reverend Swaggart as being an example, better than 1 was, Whittington said. But, this incident is a reminder that were suppose to be like Jesus, he said. God

records successes and failures of men in the Bible and sends the message that people are human, and that includes preachers and evangelists, Whittington said.

Whittington said the Lord may have allowed this to happen so he (Swaggart) would repent. Swaggart was unlikely to confess his sins, Whittington said, without some kind of confrontation, which may be similar to the one drunken drivers face when they are in an accident.

ABC News reported last week that another television evangelist, Mar-

person who masterminded the kidnapping already had slipped out of south Lebanon.

The operation was a masterpiece from a professional standpoint, the source said. The mastermind used five identical brown Volvo cars plus two additional getaway cars, a white Peugeot and a red Mercedes, in the abduction. The squad in each car did not know who was in the other car.

Schools Eye Club Property

By CHERIE EVANS Reflector Staff Writer

If the Boys Club of Pitt County ever decides to sell its current facility and to move its services to another location. the Pitt County schools will likely be the purchaser.

The Pitt County Board of Education agreed Monday night during a brief meeting that if the Boys Club facility beco.mes available, it will purchase it over a five-year period.

Although no papers have been signed, school attorney Phil Dixon said, the school system would pay about $900,0(X) for the facility over five years of installments.

During that period of time, theyll (the club) continue to use it, Dixon said, but the schools also would be able to utilize the gym of the club.

Acquisition of the club would present some exciting opportunities for the schools, Dixon said. It would give us a gymnasium at Greenville Middle School that we dont have right now, and with plans to convert the middle school into a high school, that would tie in very nicely with our plans with the athletic complex there.

Plans of converting the middle school into a high school is one reason the club is considering selling the present club facility. Boys Club director Chet Emerson said this morning in a telephone interview.

Tobacco Co-Op Says Industry Now In Its Best Overall Position In Years

Accu-WMther* forecast for Wednesday Daytime Conditions and High Temps

( SNIIWIMI

By JOHN BARE Reflector Staff Writer After surviving some agonizing years in the mid 1980s, the tobacco industry is in the best position it's been in for several years, according to officials of the Flue-Cured Tobacco Cooperative Stabilization Corp.

The cooperative, the grower organization which administers the price support program for flue-cured tobacco, met Monday at the Moose Lodge in Greenville for its 30th annualDistrict 6 meeting.

Im happy to see more optimism in the crowd than Ive seen at some Stabilization meetings, so maybe were doing something right, said Atlas Wooten, who was voted to his fourth three-year term as distrl^ct director.

We sincerely hope were seei an upturn in some areas, sal Wooten, but we cant let our guard down.

I think our project of main concern is that we ao not have a build up of inventory, said Wooten. Growers are responsible now for carrying the inventory.

Inventory is exactly where the cooperative has made progress. Stabilization ended 1987 with just under 400 million pounds of tobacco and 240 million pounds of that is committed for purchase under the buy out contracts.

The remaining 158 million pounds available for purchase is the lowest total since 1974.

The situation was vastly different in 1984 when Stabilization was saddled with an inventory of more than 800 million pounds. Youll recall that was almost the breaking point, Fred Bond, chief executive officer for the cooperative, said to the group of growers.

If we had continued with that movement forward I dont think wed

be here today. We just couldnt afford it, said Bond.

There is no way the program could have survived, but a buyout plan shifted part of the debt to tobacco companies, said Bond.

Philhp Morris Inc., R J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, Brown and Williamson and Lorillard agreed to buy nearly 600 million pounds of toicco over eight years, and the project is moving twice as fast as planned, said Bond. Just 41 percent of the tobacco remains to be sold.

Producer assessments have dropped from an all-time high of 25 cents in 1965 to 2 cents in 1988. Tobacco companies and growers will each pay one penny for every pound sold on the warehouse floor this year. The money goes to the Commodity Credit Corp. to guard against any losses by the federal government on the tobacco program, Wooten said.

Since Congress passed the No Net

Cost Tobacco Program Act in 1982, the cooperative can borrow federal money only to buy tobacco. Tobacco rowers are now responsible for the inancial stability of the quota and price support program and the money from the assessment is held against any potential losses.

The government will not lose any more money on tooacco, said Wooten. If the cooperative can not pay back federal loans, the. assessment is raised for the next year. If most tobacco is sold, as in 1987, the co-op makes an effort to lower the assessment lust as is being doing this year, he said.

Effective quotas are up for 1988, rising 8.8 percent to 805 million pounds. It is the first time since 1976 that the quota has increased from the previous year, said Bond, and indications are that in 1989 ther will another increase in the basic quota.
