On Friday, Sept. 12, ECU filed an injunction against Skully's, a music
store in downtown Greenville. The suit stated that tho pirate skull and
crossbones logo of the store, in combination with ECU's purple and gold
colors, infringed on ECU's trademark registration.
"It's not just the colors, though the colors are important. It's the use
of the colors with the pirate design that creates confusion with the
University's mark University Attorney Ben G. Irons said.
The suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District
of North Carolina and names the owners of Skully's, Tom and Rebecca
Ives, as defendants.
Tom Ives said that he has retained legal counsel specializing in trade-
mark law and does not believe his store's logo infringes on ECU's logo
in any way.
"Our position is that we have a valid trademark registered with the
state. We are not in violation of any of the trademark rules which they
nave filed Ives said.
The University attempted to warn the owners verbally before taking
legal action.
"I first talked with Tom and Rebecca Ives about their use of the
mark in May of 19. I believe that was some time after they started
using it Irons said.
Skully's did not discontinue their use of the mark, and the
University later decided to take legal action.
I see no evidence that they have altered the way in which they arc
selling their mark Irons said.
The registration mentioned by Ives is with the Department of the
Secretary of State. According to Irons, ECU's trademarks are registered
on the federal level with the VS. 'Patent and Trademark Office, which
undertakes a much more rigorous search to confirm that a new trade-
mark is not copying any other logo already registered.
The University is not attempting to obtain any damages or other
compensation from the suit. They are asking only for the discontinued
use of the logo.
"Part of the University's goal is to have our state trademark rescind-
ed Ives said.
"Our primary objective is to get them to stop. If they would stop
using the mark with the University colors, we would have no reason to
proceexi Irons said.
However, if the University were to win the suit, they would attempt
to regain their court costs.
"If the University is forced to proceed with litigation, it is certainly
going to attempt to receive its costs connected with the litigation
Irons said.
While the University alleges that Skully's logo is an attempt to mar-
ket their merchandise, Ives says that his store's merchandise has very
little to do with their trademark.
"I've got over 3,000 used CD's and over a thousand stickers in the
store, and a big variety of other merchandise. The main business I have
is not evolved around our store's logo Ives said.
Skully's continues to use the skull and crossbones logo and indicates
that they will conduct their business as they have been until the case is
decided.
"As a small business in downtown Greenville, we would like to have
the opportunity to continue to conduct business as we have been Ives
said. "VW: would appreciate any support trie'students can give usv"

A special review of the Medical Foundation of
ECU, Inc released by the state auditor's
office, describes the investigation of embez-
zlement charges against former Medical
Foundation President and Executive Director
Robert K. Adams II.
At a press conference held Wednesday,
State Auditor Ralph Campbell, Jr. discussed
the findings of the 20- month investigation.
"Remember that this actually came from a
tip to the state auditor's hotline. This report
demonstrates clearly that every allegation
must be thoroughly and carefully evaluated
Campbell said.
According to the review, the tip was
received December 4, 1995 with an anony-
mous call stating that the then-President of
the Medical Foundation was being reimbursed
by ECU for travel expenses which were paid
for by the foundation.
According to Campbell, his office met with
the State Bureau of Investigation in February
of the following year and submitted the evi-
dence the state auditor's office had gathered.
At this point the SBI began investigating the
criminal allegations.
"This report illustrates the significance of
the access of our office in providing a means
for people to raise questions about improper
use of state resources Campbell said.
The review describes five main findings
which are related to the former president's
actions.
The first is that the president of the ECU
Medical Foundation operated without suffi-
cient oversight Campbell said.
"Number 2 received payments from the
medical school for travel expenses that were
paid by the medical
foundation. Those
amounts came to
$3607.99 Campbell
said.
According to Campbell,
Adams also purchased
some land for the med-
ical foundation from a
personal business part-
ner and received at least
$169,700 of the profit-
Adams also bought
another piece of land
and sold it to the foundation on the same day,
awarding him a profit of $384,000.
"The medical foundation lost at least
$230,000 waiting to purchase another parcel of
land Campbell said. "The former president of
the medical foundation used medical funds to
purchase two computer systems from his out-
side business partner which resulted in
$14,000
According to Campbell, Adams granted a
consulting contract to an outside business
partner for $15,000 over three months.
The review noted the total financial impact
as being $1,215,645.
"that financial impact could have in result-
ed in every new freshman this year at ECU
having been given $415 and every entering
student in the medical school $72
Campbell said.
A Pitt County Grand Jury issued six indict-
ments containing 16 felony charges against
Adams. Van C. Fleming III, a stockbroker and
business associate of Adams, was given two
felony charges earlier this month.
Chancellor Richard Eakin hopes that other
universities will learn from the error ECU
made.
"One always has to worry about lasting
effects in a matter such as this, I would be very
foolish not to be concerned about that. That is
what has motivated us to communicate with as
many of our donors as we can. Persons who arc
friends of our University, to be straight forward
with them, to let them know these are what
the facts are and aren't and that we are pro-
gressing forward into the future said Eakin.

Career Day fair offers wide range of
choices for students of all majors
Natasha Phillips
STAFF WRITER
Career Services and the School of Business Professional Programs are sponsor-
ing Business Career Day. It's guaranteed to provide abundant information and
potential employment opportunities for all ECU students who attend.
Business Career Day will be held Sept. 24 in the General Classroom
Building. Various employers and a wide-range of businesses, including a law
school, will have displays.
"Most students falsely believe that Business Career Day is a day only for
accounting or management students. In reality, it's very inclusive. There's
something for everone said James R. Wfestmorcland, Director of Career
Services.
BB&T, Champs Sports, Coca co*k Bottling Co Hudson Belk, IBM, Lowes
roods, Target, Disney, Maxim Healthcare, Red Lobster, the U.S. force and the
Winston Sakm Police Department are just a few of the organizations who will
attend Business Career Day
There will be approximately 70 different employers participating in this
function. Representatives will be able to talk to students, answer questions,
and distribute pamphlets and brochures.
Organizations will begin arriving at 9 a.m howevet; officials will not be
immediately accessible to students. Representatives will open their designat-
ed areas at 9-30 a.m. and close at 2:30 p.m.
"I encourage all students to attend and ask various employers about employ-
ment opportunities. An insurance company may have a job opening for some-
one with a psychology or journalism degree. Don't be fooled by a company's
name. Ask questions and gather information. If nothing else, you may become
more accurately i formed about career opportunities said Vfestmoreland.
Students are encouraged to bring resumes and to dress neatly. If you don't
have a resume, don't worry. If you stop by between classes and arc casually
dressed, don't worry.
"Sometimes the best thing to do is to make eye contact, smile, and be con-
fident said Westmoreland.
"Being knowledaglc of an organization, asking persistent questions, express-
ing a sincere interesr, and writing a thank you note to individuals you meet at
Career Day arc helpful ways to make your experience more productive said
Margie Swartout, Assistant Director of Career Services.
Representatives understand that you're busy and they appreciate your
interest. If they like you and arc interested in you as a potential intern or
employee, they may schedule an appointment with you at a later date.
"I encourage all students to participate. Participation shows appreciation
for the organization's attendance. The purpose of this function is to exchange
information said Swartout.
Some companies will participate in both Business Career Day and classroom
speaking engagements. In addition to social interaction and lectures, student
organizations will also be active in this year's Business Career Day.
"There will be a number of companies who will speak to several classrooms
and various student organizations that will help to make it a success. We're
involving Beta Alpha Psi and graduate business students, particularly those in
the Society for the Advancement of Management, to help ensure a more suc-
cessful day for everyone involved said Swartout.
The School of Business Professional Programs offers an unique opportunity
for graduate students to assistant companies on Business Career Day.
Each graduate student is assigned to assist one company Their duties
include running crands and watching over the table, which increases the com-
pany's efficiency and productivity.
"ECU is one of the few university's that has graduate student participation.
We're very proud of it. This is an event to attend said Lisa Geil, Program
Assistant for the School of Business Professional Programs.
"Business Career Day offers numerous opportunities. It was created for
every student's benefit and every student should take advantage of it said
Westmoreland.
If you would like more information about Business Career Day, please call
328-6050, stop by 701 East Ffth Street, or go to the Office of Professional
Programs in the General Classroom Building, room 1200.

RESEARCHERS SAY TECHNOLOGY COULD MAKE
COMPUTERS WORK FASTER
CHARLOTTE (AP)?Two researchers from the University of North Carolina-
Charlotte say they've found a way to link electronic and optical technology on the
same silicon chip, a breakthrough that could lead to faster and cheaper comput-
ers in the future. Raphael Tsu, an electrical engineering professor, and Qi Zhang,
a postdoctorate fellow, recently submitted their findings to the journal, Science.
Computers and electronics receive, process and transmit information through
electrical currents, as through wires, or with tiny beams of light, as with fiber
optics. But manufacturers must use different semiconductors for the electronics
and optical technology.
DRIVER GETS PRISON IN CRASH AT PIZZA PLACE
GRANITE FALLS, N.C. (AP) ? A man with a history of drunken-driving; con-
victions pleaded guilty Monday to driving a truck into a Caldwell County pizza
restaurant and injuring 10 people in 1995.
Fred Brady, 61, of Granite Falls, was sentenced to between four years and six
years and four months in prison by Judge Claude Sitton. He will be required to
serve five years of probation after he's released and won't be allowed to have a dri-
ver's license during that time.
Brady had been charged with three counts of felony assault with a deadly
weapon, inflicting serious injury and five counts of misdemeanor assault with a
deadly weapon. Investigators said Brady's blood-alcohol level was 0.18 percent
when he plowed his pick-up into the Granite Falls Pizza Hut about 1 p.m. on
Sept. 20,1995.

Computing Information Systems
(CIS) expected to have a rocky road
to travel when they became the
first university in the U.S. to install
the e-mail system Microsoft
Exchange. However, according to
CIS, the switch frony the old VM
system has been remarkably trou-
ble-free.
"In fact it's gone very smoothly.
We've been pleased at the recep-
tiveity said Earnest Marshburn,
associate director of CIS.
"We really haven't noticed a lot
of problems said Blake Price,
director of CIS.
One of the University's con-
cerns was uncertainty about
whether the University's server
could handle the load of large num-
bers of students, faculty, and staff
logging on simultaneously. CIS pre-
vented that problem by dividing
the load.
"We have it spread across three
different servers. We tried to spread
the load Price said.
There was also some concern
about notifying students that the
old VM system they were used to
had been replaced, and training
them to use the new system.
"Our concern was getting word
out to the students about the
Exchange Price said.
CIS notified students by posting
flyers across campus, taking out
full-page ads in The East
Carolinian, and training computer
lab assistants to assist students in
learning the new system.

The new system has many more
features than the old VM system,
such as word processing capabilities
and the ability to send attachments
with an e-mail message.
It also has the advantage of
accessibiSry from anywhere a web
browser can be reached. Because it
is accessed through the Internet,
students can enter their e-mail
from home, their dorm room, or an
independent server.
"It doesn't require special soft-
ware or tools, just a web browser
Marshburn said.
There may be additional ways to
use Exchange that have not yet
been implemented, but which CIS
is exploring.
"There's been a committee
formed just to look at the different
ways you can use Exchange for
classes Price said.
There has also been student
feedback on other ways that the
Exchange system could be used.
"What I'm hearing are sugges-
tions for enhancements
Marshburn said. "I'm relaying those
comments to Microsoft
The number of hits on the new
system seem to confirm that
Exchange is popular among stu-
dents, staff, and faculty.
"It's tremendous the number of
people that arc logged on compared
to the old system Price said.
Price and Marshburn both agree
that the risk they took in being the
first to implement the system has
apparently been worth it.
"That gives us all truly a sense of
pride to know that we arc the first
college in the country to employ
this on an enterprise-wide basis
Marshburn said.

CITATION which you believe you
received UNJUSTLY7
Students, staff, faculty and visitors to East
Carolina University have the right to appeal
campus parking or traffic citations issued for
violations of ECU parking and traffic regulations.
The appeal must be filed with Parking and
Transportation Services within ten (10) days of
the date of the citation. Appeals which are
incomplete or filed after the ten-day period will
not be considered. Appeal forms are available
from the Department of Parking and Transporta-
tion Services, 305 ETenth Street. If you are
appealing the citation, you are not required to
pay your fine until a decision has been made.
Appeals are reviewed by a Citation Appeal
Board consisting of staff, faculty, and students. If
you wish, you may appear before the Appeal
Board to present your case. Once the appeal has
been heard and a decision made, notice is sent
to the appellant informing him or her of the
decision. Once a decision has been reached, a
f $5.00 late fee will be added to fines not paid
within ten (10) business days of the date of the
action by the Citation Appeal Board. Student
records will be tagged until all citations are
cleared.
'What happens if I DON'T pay my fine?
Students with uncleared parking citations may
experience delays in registering for classes the
following semester.Also, students with out-
standing parking debts will have this amount
added to their next tuition statement Any
vehicle which has received three or more un-
cleared citations may be towed or booted at
the owner's expense whenever found on campus.
How can I AVOID a citation?
The best way to avoid receiving a parking citation 1
is to park only in legal parking spaces authorized
by the type of parking decal on the registered
vehicle. Remember, if you feel you received a
parking citation for parking in a manner you
believe was legal, you have the right to appeal
the citation.
Parking and Traffic Control Officers are on duty
to ensure that our limited amount of campus
parking is utilized properly. By educating students,
staff, faculty and visitors of university parking
regulations, issuing citations, and towing when
necessary, Parking and Transportation Services is
able to manage the utilization of campus parking
areas. Everyone's cooperation is needed.

ARCHEOLOGISTS FIND
HUGE ANCIENT
CEMETERY UNDER
ALEXANDRIA
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) Archeologists
have found an ancient city of the
dead" with 150 burial chambers
under the Egyptian port of
Alexandria.
The tombs date to 300 B.C. and
hold human remains as well as
"funeral furniture the Tourism
Ministry said. The find was made
earlier this year as construction
workers dug the foundation fot a
bridge.
It was unclear why the govern-
ment announcement was made this
week.
But in the ministry statement,
the French-archaeologist supervis-
ing the excavation, Jean-Yves
Empereur, was quoted as saying his
team need more money and six
months to fully excavate the site.
The statement also said con-
struction had been suspended, and
that an alternate site was being con-
sidered for the bridge.
The ministry said the find
amounted to a "city of the dead
underneath the earth of the city of
Alexandria The earliest tombs are
from 300 B.C, but inscriptions indi-
cate .the cemetery was used
between 500-600 A.D in the
Byzantine era, the statement said.
Egyptologists said the find could
redraw the map of ancient city
founded by Alexander the Great,
and reveal much about the port's
people.
YELTSIN PROCLAIMS
PEACE WITH TOP RUSS-
IAN BANKERS
MOSCOW (AP) A day after
telling Russia's top tycoons to play
nice,
President Boris Yeltsin said
Tuesday he was confident he had
put a stop to
the sniping that threatened to
disrupt his economic reforms.
Yeltsin and Prime Minister
Viktor Chernomyrdin made cleat
that keeping the
leading bankers from feuding
with each other and with the gov-
ernment is a
top priority. The bankers were
instrumental in Yeltsin's re-election
victory
last year and their support for his
economic reforms is considered cru-
cial.
Anatoly Chubais and Boris
Nemtsov, Yeltsin's top policy-mak-
ers, have been
heavily criticized by Russia's
financial groups for the latest round
of government sell-offs.

Remember the days when library orientation was a required class? Not all Pirates may, but some
of us who have been around longer than others remember learning the in's and out's of the
library. Now that technology is a top priority for the school, officials should consider replacing
the library credit with a technology class credit.
Technology has become an important part of higher education as well as the workforce in the
last several years as technology has advanced and become more available. ECU is no exception;
reports of some new technology on campus have become a mainstay on the pages of The East
Carolinian. In the last few issues, students have seen full-page advertisem*nts and stories about
Microsoft Exchange, the new e-mail system. Computer Information Services officials have said
the system is running smoothly, yet next to ECU's parking problem, the top question on many
students' minds is "How do you use the new e-mail?"
The transition from the ACMailVM system isn't as smooth for the upperclassmcn. Though
the number of Exchange users has increased since the fall semester began, some 'M users have
not even accessed the account five weeks into the semester, and once they do, they don't know
what to do. There are no directions on what to do after they log onto the syster
While some freshmen are hitting the campus already computer savvy or even with their own
computers, some have never had to use a computer, valuable instruction time is being taken to
teach students how to use this technology before them.
And while everyone knows we're charged to use technology?remember that technology fee
we have to pay every semester? ? not everyone knows what is available, where and when it's
available or even how to use it. One session on technology some students may never use does
not even begin to scratch the surface of all the technology available on campus.
More and more professors require students to use computers. Potential employers are look-
ing at computer skills just as much as a student's grade point average and experience.
Having top-notch technology available is important, and even impressive, to current and
prospective students. But what good is having state-of the-art technology if only a few people
on campus can use it to its full capabilities?
Although ECU has not gotten to the point of making a laptop computer a must-have to sur-
vive the college experience like some colleges have, it does have some excellent technology that
makes life easier ? once everyone gets used to Exchange, we'll probably wonder what we did
without it? officials should consider requiring us to obtain some computer skills by offering a
technology orientation to replace the library orientation with a technology orientation. Spend
less money getting fancy technology and more on teaching us how to use what we already have.
OPINION
Judges subject to influence, persuasion
As long as judicial candi-
dates participate in cam-
paigns, they will not be
objective. They won't
admit this, of course.
Judges don't live in a
Utopian society. Their
upbringing, judgments
and social interactions
will shape their on-the-
bench decisions.
For innumerable years, district and
superior court judges have refused to
discuss certain political and legal
issues on the campaign trail. This
summer, the state Supreme Court
allowed judicial candidates to discuss
political issues. There seems to be a
debate as to whether judicial candi-
dates should give voters a piece of
their political philosophies to help
voters decide which candidates to
support. Although objectivity, theo-
retically, is a cornerstone of the judi-
ciary, judges (both elected and
appointed) inevitably take their per-
sonal, biased beliefs to the bench.
Such bias is reflected in judicial
upbringing, judgments and off-the-
bench social interactions.
Judicial upbringing limits objec-
tivity on the bench. For example, if a
judge were reared in a family where
the father periodically beat his wife,
the judge will have zero tolerance for
anyone accused of spousal abuse.
Further, if a judge, in his childhood,
were taught that African-Americans
are second-class citizens with violent
propensities, that judge might allow
such lies to contaminate his decisions
involving African-Americans.
A judgment is based upon how a
judge perceives and interprets the
facts. Such perceptions must be
based on something. So, the judge
will reach into his past (i.e. prece-
dent, anticipatory socialization) for
guidance. Therefore, judgments typi-
cally are biased.
Judges interact with their peers on
the golf course, at the hunting club,
Lions Club, Rotary Club and other
community organizations. Often a
person's temperament is shaped
through social interactions.
In the Sept. 15 edition of The
Daily Reflector District Court Judge
Hilbarn said she doesn't wish to dis-
cuss issues during judicial campaigns.
OPINION
Mary
WEBB
Candidates must persuade voters
that they possess rectitude. Thus, a
candidate's position on fundamental
issues must be measured, subjective-
ly, by voters. Otherwise, candidates
will find themselves in popularity
contests; therefore, they won't be
held accountable for their actions.
Furthermore, Hilburn's statement ,
"Judges are supposed to be objective,
and and if you state an opinion on a
position, it may not appear you're
being objective is more theoretical
than realistic. Legislative, presiden-
tial and judicial candidates cater to
interest groups who will elect or
reject candidates.
Judge Leech supports a merit to
select judges and obviate campaigns.
Well, who will decide the member-
ships of such committees? Isn't
"merit" subjective becaus- someone
(who has a political philo ophy) has
to determine what merit is What-will
happen to African-Amerit in judicial
candidates who may have attended
North Carolina Central or Howard
University Schools of Law rather than
Duke or Carolina? Cultural relativity
ultimately will determine the "most
meritorius
As long as judicial candidates par-
ticipate in campaigns, they will not
be objective. They won't admit this,
of course. Judges don't live in a Utopi-
an society. Their upbringing, judg-
ments and social interactions will
shape their on-the-bench decisions.
I'm frightfully prejudiced about the role of a
newspaper I think it is the strongest force in
society- stronger than judges, governors,
doctors, lawyers, Indian chiefs

Graduation unorganized, not enjoyable
ECU spends a lot of time and
money advertising its sporting
events. Several people are
available to answer any ques-
tions you might have So
why is graduation, a day cele-
brating academic ability and
attainment, trotted so
m halfheartedly?
Graduation day is anticipated by hun-
dreds of students in their last semes-
ter at ECU. It represents hard work,
dedication and achievement of goals.
So why are many graduating seniors
walking around with disgruntled
looks on their faces?
There are several answers to this
question of which, fortunately 1
know a few. First and foremost, let's
start with the date. The graduation
ceremony is set for Dec. 13, 1997, a
Saturday, which is great. But it's also
a full week before final exams! Who
in their right minds can possibly have
a full fledged, all out, low-down dirty
party if exams are looming straight
ahead? No one, that's who.
Secondly, you get no correspon-
dence of any type at all informing you
that your graduation application is
accepted, that caps and gowns are
available at this particular time and
location or even that your senior sum-
mary has been okayed. Questions
about what to expect on the actual
day itself arc for now, left unan-
swered. What are the seating
arrangements going to be like, how
long will the ceremony be and will
the diploma be mailed soon, you
wonder. Quite frankly, you are in the
dark about all of these aspects and no
one seems to have an inkling of
what's going on.
Well, in order to find the answers
and avoid becoming frustrated, you
have to go back and forth between
several departments including your
major's department, the registrar's
office and the cashier's office.
Apparently there does not seem to be
much communication between them
on this particular issue.
After making a dozen trips around
campus. I learned a few things which
I intend to pass on to you. Here is
the graduation procedure in a nut-
shell: In the last two semesters
before graduating, you should make
an appointment with your adviser
and go over your senior summary.
The senior summary is a list of all the
courses that are required for your
major and minor. It is also a check on
your GPA and credit hours.
After your adviser signs off on the
senior summary, your file is sent to
the Registrar's office where records
are kept. Any changes made later on
in your course schedule must be
noted. If something is wrong with
your senior summary, you will get a
call from the registrar's office?or so
I've been told. My advice is to visit
them yourself and reconfirm your
standing.
You are now free to apply for grad-
uation. Applications are available at
Whichard Building and for this you
pay a $25.00 fee at the cashier's
office. Do not expect any confirma-
tion at this point either because you
will be waiting forever. Instead check
for your name in the file available at
the Student Bookstore You can get
the dates for ordering caps and gowns
here as well.
What happens next? That
remains to be seen ? I certainly
don't know and neither do any of my
friends who are graduating as well.
ECU spends a lot of time and
money advertising its sporting
events. Several people are available
to answer any questions you might
have. Communication and organiza-
tion are excellent, paralleled only by
the high interest and commitment
shown by every body concerned. So
why is graduation, a day celebrating
academic ability and attainment,
treated so halfheartedly?
Enforcement of ordinance lawful
Vtfel it is once again that time when
everyone has an opinion about some-
thing, and we think the best way to do
that is through insightful comments
on pressing topics concerning our lit-
tle bit of earth, ECU.
But, of course, since The East
Carolinian only employs two editorial-
ists, the rest of us must use campus
mail to help express our ideas. So here
are my thoughts on recent topics in
your newspaper.
Jeff Bergman's article of the 16th
really did not sit well with me.
Frankly, I could care less about the city
ordinance. But Mr. Bergman uses the
Bill or Rights in a way I don't believe
it was intended. First, he implies that
the 4th Amendment gives property
owners protection against city ordi-
nances. He even quotes the amend-
ment. But I believe that the 4th
Amendment was talking about pro-
tecting property owners from unrea-
sonable search and seizure and unlaw-
ful trespass from the police without a
warrant stating probable cause.
He then says that more than three
persons in a home is a trivial thing for
the police to respond to. Be that as it
may, it is still the law as of right now
that no more than three unrelated
people may reside together.
Therefore, the police have every right
to go to that home and see if a law is
being broken.
It is also the right and duty of
neighbors to notify the police when
they see a law being broken, no mat-
ter how insignificant we think that
law might be. When we begin decid-
ing which laws are too unimportant for
the police to take interest in, our town
will have greater problems than too
many people in the same house.
One other small point: in your edi-
tor's comments about registration,
you say that students should be given
a choice as to how they wish to regis-
ter. Yet in the front-page interview
with the CIS director, he states clear-
ly that students will have the choice
to use phone registration or stand in
line.
Maybe you should read your own
articles before writing an opinion
about them.

As the construction
progresses across campus,
what do you think the
university could do
differently to
preserve parking spaces?
e suee
Construction going on could be done during s
or during Christmas break. Alternative parking
places could be provided near campus.
Taylor Leonard
freshman
Social Work
believe that they should complete one construction
project at a time. This would cause only one area to
be closed at a time.
Chandra Grunden

summer, so that people can rely on a safe and reli-
able place to park their car.

andv Turner
LIFESTYLE EDITOR
? Raleigh-based 6 String Drag's new
album, High Hat, is a celebration of
ffjnerican music, a trip through
America. From the gospel on gas, "Top
if the Mountain to the Louvin
Jkothers-style harmonizing of "I Can't
ffemember listening to the album
raakes you feel as if you've been some-
where, on a trip through memories,
through lives.
? Led by ex-Lubricator Kenny Roby,
p String Drag offers up an incredibly
ifapressive second album, their first
?j) Steve Earle's E-Squared Records.
Sarle and E-Squared co-owner Jack
"Jamerson serve as producers (under
jie alias the twangtrust) for the
album. Earle's ability in his own music
?$ combine the rough and romantic to
great effect is highly evident on High
at. 6 String Drag has a foot in every-
thing on the album: rock, country,
soul, blues, rockabilly, ragtime, you
name it.
Despite an ever-shifting personnel
lineup that reads like a New York
Yankee managerial history, the band
shows a tremendous level of confi-
dence on High Hat. This is mos: evi-
dent in the voice of Roby, best
described as a twangysoulful-Elvis
Costello-meets-Merle Haggard-in-a-
knife-fight type voice. It is a voice
that is convincing, a voice that makes
Roby's love of music evident.
Roby's band mates Rob Keller
(bass), Ray Duffey (drummer) and
Scott Miller (guitarist) are a skillful
band of dust kickers, and they kick it
up on High Hat.
The album begins with "Bottle of
Blues a tough, down-on-your luck
broken-bottle rawker where Roby
laments that he "ain't got no home no
more "Bottle of Blues" exhibits the
energy and soul that makes Roby a
successful and solid songwriter and
that is maintained through the entire-
ty of the album. On the anthemic
"Ghost Roby confronts a past lover
who did him wrong, asking "did you
lie when you said you told the
truthwrap it up and throw it in a
pile
"Over and Over" would fit in a
New Orleans barrel house or an Irish
Pub, offering a sing-a-long chorus and
funny as hell lyrics. The bluesy sassi-
ness of "From Me to Clayton" also
showcases Roby's humorous side. On
"Cold Steel Brace "Guilty" and
"Elaine 6 String Drag delivers near-
perfect blue-eyed soul.
High Hat is a road trip worth taking.
Over 14 songs, 6 String Drag prove
they are a band to be reckoned with.

Peasant's this .Saturday night emdcheck out

Reading literature in college is such a common-

factors which help determine which books are read
and studied across the country.

27, is aimed at drawing attention to ongoing chal-
lenges to the 1st Amendment by attempts to ban

and censor literature.
In addition to raising awareness,
Banned Books Week also points to
the success that concerned citi-
zens have had in fighting most
attempts to ban or restrict litera-
ture.
A challenge involves restricting
or removing particular books based
upon objections and opinions of a
person or group. A ban is an out-
right restriction of materials. Each
year, school boards across the coun-
try face hundreds of challenges to
the books and materials made
available in libraries and taught in
classrooms.
Students who want to get a look
at some of the "illicit" material can
check out the banned books dis-
play in the front window of Barnes
and Noble. They might not be
expecting some of the selections though.
"Some of the books would surprise you said
Christy Brewer, community relations coordinator
for Barnes and Noble.
Based on the objections and views of particular
interest groups and individuals, the array of books
which have been subject to challenges and ban
attempts is astonishing.
Maya Angelou's Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,
Salinger's Catcher in the Rye, Shel Silverstein's A
Light in the Attic and Hough ton's American Heritage
Dictionary are just a few among the many books
that were challenged in the last five years.
Barnes and Noble's Staff Recs shelf features
books that have been banned throughout history
for various reasons. A 30 percent discount is
Banned Book Week will be held Sept. 20 through Sept. 27. Locally, Barnes
and Noble will have a banned books display in its store window.

Many people assume that the only challenges
to literature occur in highly publicized cases such
as the intense media scrutiny that surrounded
Leslea Newman's Heather Has Two Mommies. This,
however, is just the visible aspect of a much deep-
er problem.
Banned Books Week 1997 is sponsored by the
American Booksellers Association, the American
Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression, the
American Library Association, the American
Society of Journalists and Authors, Association of

Imagine you're sitting at your table with your friends, coffee in hand. The MC
calls out a name and suddenly the fellow one table over jumps up and starts
shouting at the top of his lungs. You're not sure for a moment, but it quickly
becomes clear he's ranting maniacally about Waffle House.
This sweaty, drunken reel of a room is the atmosphere of a Poetry Slam.
The techno beats that pound between poets, the trash talking MC, the shout-
ing, the jumping up and down, the thunderous pounding of hands on table
tops, all of this is par for the course in a Slam.
Until this summer, if you wanted to watch or participate in a Slam, you'd
have had to drive to Winston-Salem or Asheville. This past June Raleigh was
endowed with its own Slam, due to the efforts of some local poets headed up
by Jon Williams, a former NC State student. After spending years frustrated at
the dead air feel of local poetry readings Williams, who has participated in
Slams all over the nation, began creating a niche for a Raleigh Slam over a year
ago.
So what exactly is a Slam? Williams defines Poetry Slam as ua brute force
method of handing poetry back to the people, Robin Hood style, I guess
No one is certain where the first Slam actually happened, but everyone
involved in the scene will agree that the first Slam with any clout was the
Uptown Poetry Slam, which was begun by Chicago native Marc Smith. Smith,
then a construction worker and untrained writer, had been involved in various
amateur performance poetry groups before he founded the Uptown Slam. It
was here that the fundamentals of Slam were laid out and cemented.
The Uptown Poetry Slam struggled for its first few years. The focus of

Remember when you were a kid and Saturday mornings
were so special, much better than any other day of
the week? All through the week, your mom would
have to practically pull your le:hargic body
from your nice, comfy, warm paradise known
as the bed. However, Saturday mornings
were never a problem. In fact, you were
probably up before your parents on these
special mornings. Why? The answer was
simple and totally logical ? this was
when cartoons were on.
Well, your childhood may not have been
as adventurous as mine, but I cherish
those timeless moments lost in a colorful
animated world filled with the likes of
Underdog, Speed Racer, Scooby Doo, Super
Friends, Fat Albert, and the TarzanlBatmanlZorro
Adventure Hour. Mom, please hold all my calls; I'll
be busy until around noon.
My fiance takes jabs at my joyful memories by remind-
ing me how many worthwhile books I could have read as a
child instead of wasting brain cells
watching talking dogs solve creepy
mysteries. My response: "I don't
care how good A Wrinkle In Time may
be, this show's got a talking dog
who also happens to be a super
sleuth Yep, I had witnessed the
zenith of the art world, and it only
took three to four hours worth of
my attention, one day a week, to
fully enjoy.
As the years passed and I grew
older (and slightly more mature),
my Saturday mornings were slowly
taken up with other activities
(mostly sleep). Somewhere along
the way, I lost interest in Saturday
morning cartoons and cartoons in
general. That's kid stuff. I'm an
adult now.
That may be true, but an adult eye
detects subtleties that tend to slip
a child's notice. Looking back at
many of my favorite cartoons, I
realized that a significant number
of cartoons weren't necessarily
made with children in mind. Sure,
they were suitable for kids, and

kids loved them. But a sophisti-
cated level of humor flowed
throughout those Bugs Bunny
and BullwinkJe toons.
The cartoon industry has
blossomed over the past years,
and the popularity of cartoons is
at an all-time high. While the
child market does account for a
good portion of the thirsting
demand for cartoons, they are
not the only thing pushing the
industry. Adults have once again Barbara
embraced animation without
any sign of embarrassment or insecurity, and, as a result,
more cartoons are being released with the adult viewer in
mind.
Shows that, on the surface, may seem to be simply kid's
stuff actually offer much for grown-ups. Tiny Toons and
Animaniacs, both produced by Stephen Spielberg, carry the
same sort of brainless slap-stick comedy one expects from
cartoons, but there is nothing brainless about these shows.
So many historical, mythological and cultural references
are made among the zany antics of our cartoon heroes that
even the stiffest scholar must have difficulty suppressing
a chuckle.
Even if educated references aren't your thing, the
humor in many of the new toons are so bizarre and twist-
ed that you laugh without knowing why. Freakazoid, and
The Tuk, for example, both thrive off the illogical, the irrel-
evant and the plain weird. With these shows, don't ask
questions, just enjoy the ride.
The above shows, as fun as they may be for adults, are,
admittedly, still very much entertainment for kids. The
more glaring examples of animation aimed for an adult
audience include the psychological comedy, Dr. Katz, the
adolescent South Park, the bleak HBO series, Spawn, the
brutally honest animated sitcom, King of the Hill, and, of
course, the show that lifted cartoons from the cradle and
into the loving arms of an accepting adult audience. The
Simpsons.
These toons, more than am others eurrentls placing on
television, boldly use the animated genre to explore more
than a pie in the face or an anvil on the head. These are
groundbreaking series that have basically legitimized car-
toons as a mature genre that television can welcome into
its prime-time line-up.
I may not be a kid anymore (at least physically), but I
take pride in my love for cartoons. I don't hide the fact
that I think Hong Kong Phooey and Yogi Bear illustrate
moments of sheer comic genius. But I also freely admit
that, as much fun as Speed Buggy and Jabber Jaw are, I'm
thrilled to know that cartoons have moved with the times
and grown up a little with me.

continued from page 7
Slam was to return to a connection
between audience and poet through
a strange mixture of competition and
performance.
"It was the job of the poet to try
to communicate and we fostered
that We wanted to emphasize attis-
tic responsibility. We started with a
focus on community and the audi-
ence, the poet as the servant of the
people Smith says.
In Raleigh, this community is
already developing rapidly. Not long
after the second Slam, in July, three
local poets were invited to read at
Forum and Function, a Raleigh art
gallery and the home of Raleigh's
Slam
Williams is enthusiastic about the
possibilities Slam offers poets
rhink it's a mistake to assume that
Poetrv Slam is where it will all end
though there are all sorts of crazy
ideas out there, poetry bands, three
and four (wo)man poetry teams,
poetry plays (Shakespeare anyone?).
The growing popularity of Poetry
Slam is giving those ideas a enue to
try their wings
One of the drawbacks to Slam has
been the resistance of the academic
world to accepting Slam style poetry
as a legitimate art formlthin the
Slam community there have been a
lot of sucker punches aimed at 'ivory
tower' poetry. Largely this has to do
with Slam's embracing of things that
the academy has only recently been
willing to accept as justifiable litera-
ture Naturally, though most poems
that are performed at Slams are a bit
more blunt and gritty, the fact of the
matter is, there is no Slam style, per
se.
The rules of Slam are complicated
but they serve to make the experi-
ence interesting. Competing poets
must have three poems, one for each
round. No performance may extend
three minutes without penalty.
Judges are selected randomly from
the audience and are given note pads
on which they record the scores they
give each poet.
Audience members who are not
judges can let both the poets and the
judges know their opinions by snap-
ping fingers, stomping feet and slap-
ping tables in disproval. Various cat-
calls, grunts and hissing noises have
special meanings, and if all else fails,
the audience can just groan. At the
end of three rounds, the poet with
the highest score is declared the win-
ner.
Though there is no Slam in
Greenville, poets from Greenville are
welcome to participate in Raleigh's
Slam. Already, several ECU students,
such as alumnus Ryan Cox, have par-
ticipated in tecent Slams.
The next Slam will begin at 9 p.m.
on September 19 at Forum and
Function, in downtown Raleigh. For
more information, contact Corky
Goldsmith at Forum and Function,

Pirates hope for third straight win against USC
AVI N DA Rl
s r iii i i

The Crates are looking for another home win this Saturday as the South
Carolina Gameco*cks make their way to Greenville.
Last season, in the pouring ram in Columbia, S.( the EC. offense rolled all
over the Gameco*ck defense in a 23-7 Pirate victory Scott Harley ran tor 291
yards despite the foul weather. Hades said he can do without the rain this week.
"I don't want to see anv raindrops on Saturday Harley said.
The Gameco*cks will be led by junior quarterback Anthony Wright, who threw
for just 127 yards in last year's loss. ECU Head Coach Steve Logan said this play-
er is talented and said the weather was a big factor in h.s performance last sea-
son against the Pirates.
"He's as good as there is in the country, in my opinion Logan said. He s got
the best release, one of the greatest throws ? almost unsackable. He was caught
in a bad situation last vear. He didn't have enough experience to deal with the
weather we endured last year and Marc Crandell could deal with it. so we ben-
efited from that situation last year .
For the Pirates to benefit this vear. Logan said the running game, which has
stalled the past two games, better improve quickly. The last two games com-
bined IX:l has gained just 150 yards on the ground.
"We still don't have a running game Logan said. "We did some things better.
We've got a couple of little runs we can execute right now, but as far as pulling a
menu of runs out, we're not there vet. We better get better at it. quick.
ECU quarterback Dan Gonzalez feels it's not just the running game that
needs improvement, the passing game could use some adjustments too.
"I'm no sure it's just the running game (ionale, said. They got better last
week I think it needs to improve again. 1 think our passing game needs to get
to a higher level. I think we need to be throwing and catching the hall more

Not many college athletes are able to

drills, he was backpedalmg

an injured knee.
That didn't stop Henry

part of the Pirates. Instead
of becoming upset at his
inability to play, he turned

season Saturday, Nov 15 at
Morgantown, WV with a contest
against Big East opponent West
Virginia. Afp- their opener this season
at West Virginia, the Pirates will play
three days later at Conference USA
for Saint Louis.
"We will be playing a very high
level of competition said Dooley,
who will be entering his third season
as ECU's head coach. "We're taking on
some powers in college basketball. St.
Joseph's was an NCAA Sweet 16 team
last year; Georgia was an NCAA team
again and won 24 games. Saint Louis
had one of the top recruiting classes in
the country and opening at West
Virginia presents a great challenge as
well. Without question, this is the
most challenging schedule our pro-
gram has ever faced said Dooley
"But we're excited about it. Our pro-
gram has continued to improve and
make significant strides. We look for-
ward to playing this caliber of compe-
tition
The Pirates' 1997-98 non-confer-
