Student Health Services serves approxi­ mately 300 students on an average day. Over the years, complai nts from students have arisen with reference to misdiagnoses, lack of suffi­ cient medications, the handing out of wrong medications, and long waits to receive treat­ ment Dr. William Derrick, director of Health Services at Appalachian, says that no health service anywhere can be free of all problems. "We try and limit problems in various ways," said Derrick, " Any time you have a chain of instruction there are possibilities of errors. We try and limit the number of people in­ volved in decisions." Derrick said this limit­ ing would cut down on mistakes in the health services. However, according to students, problems still occur. Rumors of misdiagnoses and lack of knowledge of medications and procedure often circulate around campus. One of the most frequent complaints is that health services lacks medication or hands out the wrong medication for illnesses. According to Derrick, the pharmacy is one place where the least mistakes should happen. Derrick said to avoid mistakes, prescriptions aren't written down but typed or circled to avoid confusion between pharmacist and doctor. Another problem cited by students is misdiagnoses of illnesses. However, Derrick said that specific cases cannot be discussed because of doctor patient confidentiality. "Many illnesses cannot be diagnosed until the patient has been sick for sometime," said Derrick. Derrick said that mostdoctors cannot deter­ mine illnesses early on, but must wait for more symptoms. He said that this is the main reason for student complaints about misdiag­ noses. Derrick said that any health institution is subject to problems of misdiagnoses. Derrick said that the more patients seen, the higher the risk of misunderstanding between the patient and doctor. He also said it is important to understand the Student Health Services seesa great deal more patients than a regular physi­ cians office.

He added that most complaints about misdiagnoses have slackened off in the past two years. According to Derrick, the problem of out­ dated or faulty equipment does not exist at the Health Services. "There are always things that can be up­ dated," said Derrick, "We just went through a phase of updating all our lab equipment" However, older equipment like x-ray ma­ chines are maintained and not subject to prob­ lems. Another problem cited by most students is the wait in the office. Derrick said that this problem hopefully will be corrected in the near future with the addition of staff members and the return of a clinician who is on leave this year.

W EEKDAYEDITION Tom Lawson, campaign director for alumni development; and Don Beaver, campaign chair, announced Friday that the $21 million Campaign for Appalachian had reached its goal, one year ahead of schedule, (photo by John Heisel)) • Campaign for Appalachian reaches goal one year early BY HOLLY CRANE REPORTER The Campaign for Appalachian, a fiveyear fund raising campaign, has passed its$21 million goal one year ahead of schedule. The committee for the campaign announced Fri­ day that the gifts and pledges to the campaign total $21352,690. "The campaign's success is proof that Ap­ palachian is understood and appreciated for the high quality of its distinct programs and the national recognition it has received," said Chancellor Francis Borkowski. "It is also a reflection of the commitment and quality of our faculty, staff and students, the loyalty of our alumni and the appreciation of our neigh­ bors." This was the first comprehensive cam­ paign in the university's 94-year history. It includes all aspects of the university. Plan­ ning for the campaign began in March 1988 under former Chancellor John Thomas and the campaign began in July 1989, when fac­ ulty and staff support was solicited. When thecampaign was publicly announced last fall, 69 percent of the goal had been reached. The campaign is broken down into three major categories: endowment, facilities and equipment, and ongoing / cur­ rent goals. In specific areas, the campaign totals are: professorships and facultydevelopment ($3.6 million) student scholarships and financial aid ($2.4 million) university and program endowment ($282,546) An Appalachian Summer ($921,867) computing and telecom­ munications ($1 million) McKinney Alumni Center ($1.2 million) and ongoing and current goals ($11 million). Alumni and cor- porat ions made al most 60 percent of the dona­ tions. When asked what the committee would do now that the goal has been surpassed. Dr. Jim Strom, vice chancellor of university advance­ ment, said that next year will be spent looking at what needs to be funded and the next three years will be spent identifying projects. Fund raising will continue until the campaign's scheduled end inOctober 1994 so all the campaign goals can be met The campaign chair is Don Beaver of Hickory, president and CEO of Brian Center Management Corp. Beaver is a 1962 and 1964 Appalachian graduate. Honorary chair is Seby Jones of Raleigh, chairman emeritus of Davidson & Jones Corp. Vice chair is Kenneth Wilcox of Boone, a 1958 Appala­ chian graduate and president of Wilcox Natu­ ral Products. The Appalachian News Bureau contributed to this article. A state law is preventing Appalachian from implementing a restrictive smoking policy that was supposed to go into effect at the beginning of this semester. Appalachian administrators had passed a policy eliminating smoking in most buildings on campus, excluding residence halls. How­ ever, the policy could not be implemented because of a state law which requires ap­ proximately 25 percent of public building space be set aside for smokers. More specifically, the main part of the policy states that if a building has a set area for nonsmokers, there also need to be areas set aside for smokers. There are some complications over whether the university should have to comply with state laws or local laws. The town of Boone passed a smoking ordi­ nance effective Sept. 2, prohibiting smoking in public places. Places, such as elevators, buses, taxis, rcstrooms, service lines, waiting rooms, child care facilities, movie theaters, sports arenas, rooms where a meeting is open to the general public, polling places, or any building managed by the town of Boone. Exceptions to the policy are made if there are two lounge areas where one is designated non smoking. Places of business and public em­ ployment are also affected in certain ways. Because of this ordinance, many at Appala­ chian hoped it would be easier for the univer­ sity to pass a campus-wide non-smoking policy. Yet, according to the university attor­ ney, Mr. Cole, Appalachian is bound by the state statute. This statute, Cole said, is very difficult to interpret. Many would liketo see a smoke-free pol icy in effect here at Appalachian, including many faculty members and feel that if the town of Boone can pass a no-smoking policy, Appa­ lachian should be able to, as well. However, the Assistant Attorney General sent a letter to Chancellor Francis Borkowski stating that municipalities' ordinances do not supersede state law. Many students on campus would be in favor of a campus-wide non-smoking ordi nance. Junior Heather Oxenden said that she does not like walking on campus through halls filled with smoke. She said that her clothes end up smelling like smoke and that the sec­ ond-hand smoke is not good for her health 'Top-down management' upsets faculty BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER A memo sent from Dr. Harvey Durham, provost & vice chancellor of academic af­ fairs, concerning three training sessions on sexual harassment caused some confusion among some faculty. Some felt the tone was inappropriate and not enough specifics were being offered. Durham's memo stated the goal of the Sexual Harassment Task Force was to work with Appalachian's administrators, faculty, staff and students. The goal is also to ensure that "all understand what constitutes sexual harassment, what Appalachian expects of all members of its community with regard to preventing such breaches in professional con­ duct, and what is rcquired...in terms of report­ ing complaints of misconduct." The memo went on to state that Durham joined Chancellor Borkowski in "expecting" faculty participation and asked members to select a date to"attend your" training session. This raised questions as to whether or not the meetings were mandatory. Associate Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs Dr. Wilber Ward insisted faculty are only encouraged to attend. "Roll will not be taken," he said, "(But) on the basis of professional self-interest, faculty members owe it to themselves to be as in­ formed on the subject as they can be." Ward insists that this was not to assume that sexual harassment is a problem on cam­ pus. Only that, in legal and professional terms, it is an issue about which faculty need to be aware. Dr. Roger Winsor, professor of geography and planning, thought faculty should have had more input in the information process. "Normally we (the university) operate in a very collegia! environment and a lot of faculty took offense at the memorandum because it was seen as too much top-down manage­ ment," he said. Other faculty thought the memo held little information regarding the session's itinerary. Catherine Wilkinson, associate professor, catalog librarian, has already attended such a session as an administrator and found the forum beneficial. She agreed that faculty need more information. "The memo did not say anything about what would be covered or discussed," she said. Durham released a second memo referenc­ ing a recent Supreme Court decision on sexual harassmentregarding the timeliness of the sessions and gave a clear agenda as to what will be discussed in the sessions. The workshop's agenda includes clarifying the legal definition of sexual harassment, ex­ plaining the policies active on campus con­ cerning sexual harassment, and "any other practical considerations associated with this issue." The discussion will close with questions from the faculty in attendance. The training session for faculty is part of Appalachian'scontinuingdevelopmentofthe 'Tell Someone About Sexual Harassment" campaign. The campaign hopes to reach administrators, faculty, staff, and students for discussing the concerns and issues dealing with sexual harassment. HI I t ' �"People P€ over, befo Wake up people!

I will warn you of one thing: Nightmare is short, running just over an hour.

It is not Though I doubt Nightmare will have the success that the past few Disney animated features have had, it is no less deserving.

Night­ mare deserves to become the standard by which all other animated films are measured. Grade: A+ Rush and Pearl Jam offer new disks BY CHRISTOPHER BRADSHAW REPORTER At 12:01 a.m. on a Tuesday a couple of weeks back, I had the new discs by Rush and Pearl Jam in my hot little hands. To say that I was looking forward to hearing both of them would have been an understatement The fact that I could not listen to both simultaneously was a major dilemma. Worse yet, being saddled with a 9 a.m. class, it was several hours before I got a chance to give a decent listen to either. Rush's Counterparts teams up the Cana­ dian power trio with producer Peter Collins, and the change gives the aging band a much needed boost of energy. If you believed that 1989's Presto was the comeback album that I did, then Counterparts will do you right. jJJI.Ii DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR JODI TALLEY - ASSISTANT The album showcases, as all Rush albums do, the sharp lyrics of drummer Neal Peart Gui­ tarist Alex Lifeson and bassist/vocalist Geddy Lee can still give any song a hook that will buzz through your head for days. I was so inspired by Counterparts that I blew the dust off their old stuff and ran them through the disc player for about a week straight. I was interested in comparing their earlier material with the new one, and I came to the conclusion that Rush has really slowed down. Gobackand listen toLa Villa Strangiato from Hemispheres or Free Will off of Per­ manent Waves. Suddenly it soundsas if they are straining to kick the heavy cuts on Coun­ terparts, like Stick It Out and Between Sun and Moon., and relaxing to the point of leth­ argy on the slower tracks like The Speed of Love and Everyday Glory. Hero isastandout, as is Leave That Thing Alone, which is the third part of an instru­ mental cut carried overfrom 1991'sRoll The Bones. I had resigned my­ self to the fact that there will never be another Tom Sawyer from Rush, butCounterparts makes a val­ iant attempt to recap­ ture some of the old magic, at least the magic of the eighties. Itis not only thatRush was once so great that sometimes listening to them now is like see­ ing your favorite base­ ball player go down to the minors, just to keep playing for a few more years.

Tichets: $3 in advance for students $5at door and for guest know it is the love of the game that keeps him going, but it's still sad. The latest from Pearl Jam, Vs., is probably one of the most hotly anticipated albums of the year, and it comes on like there will be no other albums from them to follow. Their sound has changed some - nothing on Vs. struck me as being another Jeremy, Alive or Evenflow. In other words, like Nirvana's In Utero, Vs. will have the effect of clearing the room of all who did not belong there in the first place. Vs. is a tightly paced disc, coming in at slightly over 46 minutes. It is almost too short (with CD's routinely running an hour or more these days), but packed into twelve songs are rage (go, animal, blood), sadness and introspection (dissident, daughter, in­ difference) and some quirkiness (rats). Though Vs. lacks any blatant stabs at commerciality, it will still check in for a long stay at the Billboard hotel (Vs. debuted on the charts at number one, and Counterparts at number two, and both have been in the top ten ever since). The reason is that the music is strong enough not to be overwhelmed by Eddie Vedder's powerhouse delivery. Gui­ tarists Mike McCready and Stone Gossard, bassist Jeff Ament and drummer Dave Abbruzzese are a solid foundation beneath the weight and the occasional bizarreness of Vedder's lyrics. No matter how much Vedder discusses \heartistic meritsofPearl Jam,the bottom line is that the group writes great tunes. I stopped listening to ten about six months after it came out, so when early responses to Vs. were not very positive (in comparison), I was surprised. Vs. has music that not only surpasses ten in depth and emotion, but promises a durability that will survive even heavy rotation on MTV. MEISA presents musical showcase BY GLENN BLACKMAN SPECIAL TO THE APPALACHIAN On Thursday, Nov. 18, the Music and Industry Student Association (MEISA) will hold their third annual Voice Inside concert on Thurs­ day, Nov. 18. It is a showcase designed to give talented local bands some serious exposure. This year's concert will feature the progres­ sive hard rock bands Dropkick Mistress and Reality, along with the blues rock band Picture This. Doors will open at9 p.m. at the Pub, and there is a six-pack limit Advance tickets are available at the Student Union box office. Dropkick Mistress is originally from Mount Airy, and features Josh Garber (vocals and guitar), Patrick Hiau (lead guitar), Richard Smith (bass guitar) and Strother Bullins (drums). They formed about three years ago, and have performed most recently at the KlondikeCafe and Wild Wings. Reality has performed in a number of venues, including the Fire Escape in Greensboro and Sollecito's here in Boone. Their complex and driving music will surely blow you away. The group features Shawn Young (bass guitar, vocals), Todd Smith (keyboards, guitar), Matt Eddy (lead guitar) and Scott Hardesty (drums). The showcase will begin with the newly formed blues-rock band Picture This, which features Kellie Welbom (vocals), Greg Reese (bass guitar), Ray Hemms and Pat Saxon (guitar),and Bobby Whipple (drums). The Voice Inside was created to showcase the talent of local groups, as well as to give MEISA students the opportunity to apply skills in the areas of concert promotion, stage management, sound engineer­ ing, and production. All proceeds from the event will go to educa­ tional purposes. Almost from the very beginning rap and metal have been close relatives in the music industry. There have even been a few col­ laborations between the two over the past several years, like the Run DMC/Aerosmith remake of WalkThisWay, theSlayersample (and Vemon Reid'ssmokin' guitar)on Pub­ lic Enemy's She Watch Channel Zero, the Public Enemy/Anthrax cover of PE'sBring The Noise, and the rap-metal synthesis seen in power groups like Faith No More and the Chili Peppers. Thus, it seems inevitable that such cross-cultural experimentation should catch on and occur with more regularity, and the latest example of this fusion, Judge­ ment Night (the soundtrack from the film of the same name), is poised to set the music world on its ear. This disc is the sound of the future. Every track is a bold pairing of some of the bright­ est acts in the rap and alternative/metal fields, and the resultsare truly amazing. But due to the nature of the movie - the story of an urban gang terrorizing a group of yuppies - the majority of the songs deal with vio­ lence of some variety or another. The lead-off track, Just Another Victim, teams upNew York art-thrash artist Helmet with Irish hip-hop act House of Pain. The tune overflows with avarice and threatening overtones - in other words, it's great. The Boo-Yaa Tribe hooks up with Faith No More for another meditation on violence entitled Another Body Murdered, and the results are, again, great. With FNM's Mike Patton moaning through the background and Jim Martin's static guitar powering the song, Boo-Yaa's Devoux delivers line after line about 'gangsta' life, and he advises his victim to "bang yo head to this." FNM is one of the best rock bands out there today, and this chilling song ranks among their best ever. Completing Judgement Night's trilogy of intensity and violence are Therapy? and Fatal, performing Come and Die. The tune comes up a little short on originality, but it compensates on sheer intensity. Victim, Another andComeandDie are the best that Judgement Night has to offer, but they are definitely not for the faint of heart. There is much more to this album than rage and violence. Run DMC joins Living Colour for Me Myself and my Microphone, and theircollaboration comes across as flaw­ less. The same can be said of Onyx and Biohazard, whose Judgement Night isnota sharp departure for either group, as it fea­ tures the chanted phrasing and mosh-pit enthusiasm that illuminates the styles of both groups. And, in a move that makes Body Count look like Warrant, Ice-T teams up with Slayer to serve up a healthy dose of mayhem and chaos on Disorder, an anti­ war song that works just as well as you might imagine it would. Other tracks may come as a surprise. Cypress Hill (their latest debuted at number one on Billboard s album chart a few months back) share a joint with influential alterna­ tive stars Sonic Youth on / Love You Mary Jane, which ought to please fans of both groups, and shed some light on their fond­ ness for marijuana. C-Hill also does a num­ ber with Seattle angst barons Pearl Jam, closing out Judgement Night on a particu­ larly high note. Sir Mix-A-Lot's collabora­ tion with fellow Seattle trendsetters Mudhoney (Freak Momma)creates a unique and ground-breaking grunge-rap that pushes the limits of both genres. Mix-A-Lot com­ ments, "Oh, there goes my street credibil­ ity." The tune builds on guitar riffs resem­ bling Summertime Blues (the Blue Cheer version), over which Mix-A-Lot tells the story of a favorite groupie. Freak Momma makes a nice change of pace from the drugs and violence that powers the rest of this disc. Judgement Night is truly one of the most important releases of the year, and also one of the best. Only time will tell if it makes a major impact on the general music scene. Hopefully the boundary-breaking stylistic synthesis flaunted here will develop into something of major and inspiring impor­ tance. But don't take my word for it-goout and buy it. Or else.

Western week in Lexington, Va. Marshall, Furman prepare for S.C. hoop season BY DAVID KITTRELL ASSISTANT EDITOR The Thundering Herd of Marshall Univer­ sity hopes for another successful season on the Southern Conference courts. In the 199293 season, the Herdhad a 16-11 conference record, their best in five years, and best under fourth-year Head Coach Dwight Freeman. Marshall will have to deal with the loss of forward Tyrone Phillips. Last year, the senior led the team in scoring with 22.3 ppg and pulled down almost six rebounds per game. The burden of filling this void will rest heavily on Malik Hightower. The 6-5 junior averaged 10.6 points and 3.7 rebounds last season. Hightower can play guard or forward and was awarded Freshman-of-the-Year hon­ ors from the Southern Conference in 1992. Helping Hightower in the Herd frontcourt will bejuniors Troy Gray and Curtis Raymond, transfers from Neosho County Community College in Kansas. The two combined for over 1,700 points in two seasons. Another transfer that will make an impact on the Herd is Wes Hardin from Ole Miss. Hardin is the first seven-footer in Marshall history and hashad the experience of playing against NBA All-Star Shaquille O'Neal. Se­ nior Shawn Brailford will also see minutes at the center spot for the Herd this season. Marshall's backcourt will be anchored by juniorTink Brown.The 6-2 point guard started every game for the Herd last season while contributing 5.9 points and three assists per game. The shooting guard spot will be shared by senior Frank Martin and junior Doug Schleppe. Martin has averaged nearly ten points a game for his career. Schleppe comes to Marshall from Belville Junior College, where he shot 49 percent from three-point range and scored 17 points a contest. Freeman will lead his team into this season on Nov.30 with a game against Pitt-Johntown.

Appalachian gets 95 percent of its budget from student fees and only 5 percent from charges for special services, as does Tennes­ see. Mississippi and N.C. State receive 85 percent of their budgets from student fees while W ake Forest receives most of its budget from private, appropriated funds. $469,730 Derrick said it was also important to know that ASU's health services does offer a few more services than theaverage school. Appa­ lachian offers things like inpatient services and weekend hours that some schools don't. Compared to N.C. State, Tennessee, Mis­ sissippi, and Wake Forest, Appalachian of­ fers a better set of weekend hours with 24 hour service. The others, at most, offer only emergency care. Appalachian also offers inpatient services for 24 hour care. Letter reminds clubs of trademark policy BY AMY BEACH ASSISTANT EDITOR The collegiate licensing student advisory board sent a letter warning club presidents that "action will be taken against any group which attempts to use the university mascot, logo, or anything depicting Appalachian State University without prior approval." Three years ago, the university received official licensing from the Collegiate Licens­ ing Company, which requires groups to get prior approval before referencing the univer­ sity. Penalties for violating the policy could include confiscation of the unauthorized products and disciplinary action against the student. Groups who violate the policy will also be responsible for royalties and legal costs. According to the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Public Affairs, MarkLevine, having the product design approved is a simple process and not very time-consuming. Students must bring a finished sketch of their designs to the student advisory committee, which meets every three weeks. The committee can meet upon request, with 10-day prior notification. Once the committee approves a design, it cannot be altered in any way. Only officially approved licensees are al­ lowed to produce the designs.

Every year the directors of Appalachian Student Health Services report to a confer­ ence of the Southern College Health Associa­ tion. During this conference, universities publish and compare their statistics on stu­ dents, budgets and general facility informa­ tion, "Every month we send in updated informa­ tion to the Southern College Health Associa­ tion to be published in comparison with other schools," said Dr. William Derrick, director of health services at Appalachian. This year, Appalachian ranks in the middle range in most categories. Appalachian has three full doctors to serve its 11,600 students. North Carolina State University has 27,200 students and eight full doctors. The University of Tennessee also has eight full doctors with a student population of approximately 26,000. The University of Mississippi, a school comparable in size to Appalachian, has four full doctors. A smaller, private school, Wake Forest, has two doctors for its 5,000 students. Appalachian has the lowest salary for the doctors on call with about $63,000 a year.

Levine said that the letters concerning li­ censing were sent out because every year clubs change and grow, and it is the Student Advisory Committee's job to inform club presidents of their responsibility to the licens­ ing policy. He said that the real problems on campus concerning licensing are the "boot­ leggers" that sell shirts with characters like "Ren and Stimpy" or "Beavis and Butthead" on them. "The university will reprimand the viola­ tion of its policy, but using characters like Ren and Stimpy without the permission of the people whoown thosecharacters will result in severe repercussions," said Levine. According to Levine, the licensing pro­ gram is instrumental in protecting the integ­ rity and reputation of the university and it also raises scholarship funds through the collec­ tion of royalties. The university collects li­ censing royalties equaling 7.5 percent of the wholesale price. "Licensing royalties are evenly split be­ tween academic and athletic scholarships," Levine said. "We just sent out $8,000 that came from the last royalties check." In the past three years, Appalachian licens­ ing has generated $18,000 in royalty pay­ ments for student scholarships. Group threatened not to perform Equipment problems cause tension at concert BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER A concert organized by A.P.P.S. showcas­ ing two rap groups was cut short last Thurs­ day. Difficulties with the sound system arose and one of the groups threatened not to per­ form. Rap groups De La Soul and Tribe Called Quest were the groups featured at Legends, courtesy of A.P.P.S. programs. The perform­ ers complained of the faulty equipment they had to use and were heavily critical toward the event's organizers. Billy Maupin, chairperson of A.P.P.S.stage shows and organizer of the event, claims the fault lies with the performing groups. "This was the most difficult and unorga­ nized show, as far as people, I had to work," he said. "We had no control over the situa­ tion." Before a show is organized, A.P.P.S. sets advanced dates with performing groups. Tour managers are asked for details concerning dinner before the act, the type of PA system to be used, and any other group requests. According to Maupin, the tour manager for Tribe Called Quest, Troy McNair, approved a menu for dinner and the type of sound system to be used. McNair had said the equipment A.P.P.S. provided for the De La Soul concert two years ago would be agreeable. On the date of the concert, the performing groups arrived late for the prepared compli­ mentary dinner. According to Maupin, McNair said that all the equipment and preparations for the groups had never been agreed to and were wrong. Maupin disagreed. "Nobody would take responsibility for the preparations made," Maupin said. "They acknowledged we had talked on the phone, but said they didn't agree to anything we provided." During a sound check of the equipment, Maupin said both groups told him the system was fine with the exception of the volume level. McNair wanted toexceed 120decibels, a level Maupin said was not possible. "Local ordinances don't allow us to go that loud," Maupin said. He said that they have been forced to lower the volume in the past. In the first five minutes of De La Soul's act, systems personal for the group pushed the volume past 120 decibels. This damaged the amplifiers to the speakers, blowing out the high-ends of the new JBL system in use. The music became increasingly distorted, with only slight bass tones being recognizable. During the show, performers in both groups uttered comments that were critical of the event's organizers, saying the equipment was "cheap" and a "rip-off." Tribe Called Quest refused to go on stage, causing an over-thirty minute intermission. "The manager asked for more money or the group would fiat out notgo on," saidMaupin. "We made it clear that we'd tell the people there that we were not the reason (the group) wouldn't go on." Maupin said he stressed to Tribe that they might receive bad press for refusing to per­ form and lose the support of the fans in atten­ dance. The group decided to go on. They performed only a few songs and spent most of the time on stage making comments about the "sorry" equipment. Maupin said the show was still a success and that most fans had a good time. Deadline is tomorrow for opting out of housing contract BY DAWN MCGUIRE EDITOR Tomorrow is the deadline for applying for a release from an on-campus housing con­ tract. Students may automatically bereleased from their contracts for four reasons: if they are graduating, student teaching, transferring to another school, or withdrawing from the uni­ versity. Their releases are easily confirmed, according to Scott Ranger, assistant director for residence life. If a student has any other reason for wanting a release, she must fill out a petition to be reviewed by Ranger. Many students think that they must have someone to take their place, but Ranger said this is not true. "I look at petitionson a case-by-case basis, not a onefor-one swap," he said. Ranger described the criteria he looks at to determine if a reason is valid. Two questions he said he asks are, "What has changed since the student entered the contract?" and "How much control has the student had over the situation?" "The less the student had control of the situation, thebetter their chances,"said Ranger. Ranger screens cases with "cut and dry" decisions. Questionable cases are reviewed by a committee of residence fife staff and students. He used examples of medical and financial situations. Ranger also said that all informa tion needed to be verified. He said the com­ mittee also looks at different lifestyle issues, such as non-traditional students, who may be older than typical residents. "I think we are pretty responsive and flexible when we need to be, but also are responsible building managers," Ranger said. The university housing contract is no dif­ ferent than any other housing contract in that it is legally binding. �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY 11 NOVEMBER 1993, PAGE 2 READY FOR A CHANGE?

Students who live hours, even states away from Boone will not be excused from classes, unless professors decide to cancel class on their own. Appalachian needs a policy that excuses students from classes beginning after 12 noon the day before breaks. This university needs to address the safety of students who live great distances from campus. Our adminstration should implement such a policy as soon as the next academic calendar is planned. But this year, and in a matter of days, in fact, students will have to pack their cars, go to class and hit the road around 1,2, maybe even 4, or 5 p.m. Students will arrive at their destinations late in the evening, and in some cases, early | Thanksgiving morning. What a holiday! Traveling on the highway during the holiday season can be dangerous, particularly late in the evening when folks are in a hurry. Just think of all those Appalachian students, in a rush to begin their long weekend, on the holi­ day road. Students who must travel extreme distances alone will have to stop to eat, stretch and do necessary things — Alone. The later the hour, the more risk involved in traveling by yourself. The decision to implement such a policy at Appalachian can be easily made by university officials, and the effects of such a policy would be beneficial, not detrimental. True, this time of the semester is hectic and packed with desperate attempts to follow syl­ labi. But canceling afternoon classes before breaks is a minor change in the academic calender that would benefit our student body in a significant way. Stresses-out students and professors need time to take their time getting home. Let's not wait for something regretable to happen. We don't need to act because of disaster out of emergency. Let's prove our­ selves safety conscious and take action as soon as possible. A simple decision, a simple policy is what Appalachian needs. To the administration: We're counting on you to act in the best interest of the student body. To the student body and everyone traveling for the holidays: Have a safe trip home!

Aside from this oh-too-obvious handicap, the bands still tried their best to keep the crowd on it De La Soul kept the Plug 1 and Plug 2sides warring for the title of "True HipHop Fans." Tribe Called Quest kept it going with the help of the crowd. Maseo, a.k.a. Pace Master Mace, got the audience into the groove from the get go with his live turntable science. He cut-up seventies funk grooves with phat nineties b-boy beats. Then De La kicked it off with the mantra "It might blow up, but it won't go pop," the same way they open their latest album, Buhloone Mindstate. "It's a play on words, as in we might blow up, but not go pop as in Top 40, or we could have a hit in the Top 40 and still not go pop, meaning explode or have a back­ lash," adds Posdnous in a recent issue of Vibe Magazine. Over the next hour or so, De La played a varied set including songs from the new release (Buhloone)'and their debut re­ lease. Tribe Called Quest opened their 45 minute set with Mr. Mohammed, an old-school tune off their first album, People's Instinctive Travels and Paths of Rhythm. The rest of their set included another good mix of songs from both of their previous albums, such as CanIKick.lt?, Buggin Out, BonitaApplebum, and Classic Example (ofaDateRape).Tribe also performed two songs from their new­ est album, Midnight Marauders, which was out on Tuesday. Q-Tip ended the show with some remarkable impressions of A1 Green and Richard Pryor. The show at Ziggy's, at least the half that I saw, was much more hyper than the one at Legend's. The audience was definitely into it, and Ziggy's sound system was wildin'. Too bad DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR JOPI TALLEY - ASSISTANT the crowd decided to do the same and I had to make an untimely exit Ironically, as soon as Maseo took to the turntables he com­ mended the crowd for keeping the peace. Hopefully the next time around, if there is one, the bands will have better luck. No imagination required BY JODI TALLEY ASSISTANT EDITOR Late Night war wages on —Letterman still king ORVlLLE fofS A WHHUE. BY STEVEN MACKAY REPORTER The talk show (host) wars have been raging for a couple of months now. Five men are (or were) fighting for the championship, which is the highest viewing audience. Already there is a casualty and a definite winner. Here is an overview of the current rankings of all of the shows and their hosts. As I predicted in the very pages of this prestigious (I'm kissing a** in hopes for a raise) publication weeks ago, The Chevy Chase Show was indeed canceled before Halloween. Actually, it was canceled around Columbus Day. No surprise there, this show was a real stinker from the very beginning. Grade: Incomplete I strongly believe in giving credit when credit is due. Arsenio Hall has stuck to his guns and hasn't changed a thing about his show. This demonstrates that he has guts and integrity and that he is not going toconform to someone else's idea of what a talk show ctors breathe life into 'Flesh and Bone' BY STEVEN MACKAY REPORTER er the past year, many of the movies that been released have been rather dark and 'y dramas. The newest release in this cular sub-genre, entitled Flesh and Bone, I well be the bleakest movie of the year. |esh and Bone begins on a very dark and • night on the vast plains of Texas. An ie family is violently murdered,except for pfant girl. A young boy, named Arlis, esses the crime. He never tells anyone 't it, because the murderer happens to be ather. e flash-forward thirty years to the very ' Texan land. Arlis (Dennis Quaid), now ^n up,drifts from one town to another and back again, stocking candy and condom ma­ chines. He is seemingly content with his mo­ notonous life, seeing the same faces, mean­ ingless lovers, stores and motel carpets every week. Most importantly, Arlis hatessurprises. Arlis' life changes completely and forever when a mysterious and vibrant woman, named Kay (Meg Ryan), comes in to his life. She has many dark secrets that have more to do with Arlis' life than her own. The sudden reappear­ ance of Arlis' father, Roy (James Caan), fur­ ther complicates the lives of Arlis and Kay. 1 do not want to give away any more of the plot for fear of giving away the mystery and the great big surprise. Though the "surprise" is so obvious, any ten-year-old could figure it out The entire plot survives on a series of coincidences so baffling that onlytheWarren Commission could top them (though I doubt it). Still, this is a beautifully made film with wonderful and memorable characters, both good and evil (and in between). The technical aspects of the film, like cinematography, are stellar. The performances in Flesh and Bone are nothing short of spectacular. Dennis Quaid, who smirked his way through the awful Un­ dercover Blues, gives his finest performance ever, as the desolate Arlis. The heartless and downright evil Roy is James Caan's first real character and best performance since 1990's Misery. Meg Ryan is very good as the myste­ rious Kay. Flesh and Bone is rated R for violence, profanity, sex and nudity. Grade: *** MUSIC /J r LnwitatLon to c^f- uiatoxLan cottage, on a ki£L fiCCrd uritA I ^ fuoiuui and.

But he still does that barking helicopter impersonation every night. He still makes fun of the audience. And he still isn't very funny. Grade for The Arsenio Hall Show: * When Letterman left NBCearlier this year, they needed a replacement pronto, so they conjured up Late Night With Conan O'Brien. O'Brien was never on television before he got the job, so I gave him a chance to find his ground. Two months later, my patience and his luck have both run out Conan does try really hard to be hip»and funny, but he ends up acting like an obnox­ ious college student. Cool band though. Grade: * The Tonight Show With Jay Leno has fallen quite a bit in the last two years since Leno took over for Johnny Carson. Most of the time, Leno runs his opening monologues into the ground; there seem to be more "hohum's" than "ha-ha's". You can see the panic in his eyes every time a joke or a skit fails. Talented band leader Branford Marsalis looks bored out of his mind most of the time. Still, there are enough funny moments in Tonight to save iL I love his odd newsclippings skits and he has some great guests and comedians. Grade: ** I saved the best for last, and you probably already know who it is. Yes-sir-ree-bob, it's our old friend, David Letterman. Late Show With David Letterman has been wrecking the competition since his debut on August 30 at CBS. Unlike the rest of the talk show hosts, Dave is consistently funny. He makes his oldest gags, from The Top Ten to strolls through suburban New Jersey, seem fresh every time he does them. He has some of the best guests, from Sean Connery to Billy Joel. The only gripe I have with this show is the band leader, Paul Shaffer, who, for someodd reason, irritates the living heck out of me. Tiny gripes aside, this is the best of the late night shows and it will remain that way. Grade: ***» No matter how old you get, there is noth­ ing like a toy. No matter how many times you go to Wal-mart, there will always be something special about the toy depart­ ment Toys are the key to the door behind which are imagination lurks. At least that is what they used to be. Do you remember your favorite toy? Mine was a pink rabbit with calico ears and a silver key in her back. When wound care­ fully, it would play my favorite lullaby. I spent many hours with Flower (that is what I named the bunny that my mother bought for meafter I pleaded and swore that I would never ask for another thing as long as I lived). My boyfriend's favorite toy was a set of Lincoln Logs that he used to build many forts and log cabins. These were toys that you could play with! Toys are not the same anymore. Kids do not get to play with toys anymore, they just sit back and watch the toys play by themselves. Maybe it started with Chatty Cathy, or Betsy Wetsy, but it has gotten completely out of hand! The sad state of toys really hit home when my little sister got a Teddy Ruxpin. What a demonic toy! Watching that thing's eyes and mouth open and close, and hearing the little motor sounds that it made when it "read a story" was enough to send shivers up and down my spine! What ever happened to pretending ?! Today's kids do not have to pretend any­ more! They have teddy bears that talk and now even talk back to videos! The most atrocious toy is a completely automated doll house (batteries not included). This doll house not only has working lights, it also «comas equipped with a voice chip. By placing the included dolls on any of the various electronic circles on the floor, you can hear entire conversations between the "family members." GIVE ME A BREAK!! What do you even need the kids for? Just plug this thing in and it will go on for hours! No wonder kids are lazy! They no longer need strength for even the most trivial of activities! But never fear, kids can always go out and ride a bike, right? WRONG! Now there are battery powered, motorized three and four wheelers in every motif from Barbie to Mickey Mouse! Read a book? Why bother? There are now books that come with there own built in sound effects, and even some that read themselves with just the touch of a button. Or better yet, just go to Blockbuster and rent the video. I guess I should not be surprised. Why should our children be any different than adults? Why should they not sit in a caffeine stupor while watching Hollywood remakes of great literary classics? Why should we take the time to read with or play with our children when we can create such nice little gadgets to do that for us? All of this brings me to my point. In the words of the great philosopher Harry Connick. Jr., "With imagination I'll get there." I can not help but wonder where we will ever be able to go without imagination.

Siegel says it's amazing how often people see crimes being commit­ ted, yet no one alerts authorities. Even if you're not sure, call the campus police or the dorm desk clerk. The man who killed 14 people with a gun at a Montreal university walked through campus with the weapon and an ammunition bell in open view in daylight and no one reported it, Siegel said. —Write down the numbers of your credit cards and keep them in a safe place.

Uni­ versity administrators and staff privately say the figure is closer to 90 percent. "The more they drink, the higher the corre­ lation to crime," Whitman said. "The reality is, you know they're going to drink, and you have to manage the risk." Second, 80 percent of all crime on cam­ puses is committed by students against other students, said Dorothy Siegel, executive di­ rector of the Campus Violence Prevention Students need to be aware of their safety an overnight visitor. c) Exchange telephone numbers, and ask someone to hose you down with cold water. Some people may think the talk about cam­ pus crime is just media hype, but there's good reason for concern. Recent studies indicate there is more crime on college campuses than administrators would care to admit. Most is property crime—thefts of stereo equipment, books and such—but violent crime is also on the rise. A 1990 study by the Campus Violence Pre­ vention Center at Towson State University in Towson, Md., indicated significant increases in crimes such as sexual assault, arson, hate crimes, physical assault and vandalism, while murders and strong-arm robberies remained fairly constant from the previous school year. The report tallied responses from 437 institu­ tions in the United States and Canada. One disturbing result was that 42 percent of the colleges and universities admitted that crime statistics were not made available to parents and students. These findings were serious enough that Congress in 1992 man­ dated that U.S. institutions publish crime sta­ tistics every year. The best way to play it safe, both on and off campus, is to remember a few key statistics. First, alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both play a significant factor in about 75 percent of crime on campus, ranging from And now, to see how you fared on the quiz: Center.

TERRANT- ASSISTANT Substance abuse on campus BY DALE KIRKLEY SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROGRAM COORDINATOR Twenty-five years after the pot-smoking 60's generation, marijuana abuse is still an issue on college campuses. A recent national survey of American students in 4-year institu lions indicates that 12 percent of the students use marijuana on at least a monthly basis, and 6 percent use on at least a weekly basis. Researchers have come to some conclu sions about marijuana. Heavy or chronic use can cause serious health problems—impaired short-term memory, depressed immune sys tern, and lung disease. Studies show heavy THC exposure has aging effects on memory while others suggest it suppresses the body's ability to fight infection. Other evidence shows chronic marijuana smoking causes bronchitis, emphysema, and lung cancer. For some people, even occasional use is harmful. Pregnant women who smoke pot can adversely affect their babies because THC causes low birth weight and miscarriage. Other high-risk groups include young people, be­ cause they're still developing; people with heart problems, because marijuana increases the heart rate; the emotionally unstable, be­ cause it can trigger psychosis ; and people with AIDS/ARC, because of its potential ef­ fects on the immune system. Most users do not become addicted to mari juana. Heavy smokers may develop toler­ ance—decreased sensitivity to the drug's ef­ fects—but marijuana addicts tend to increase the frequency of use rather than the amount used. Daily use is a sign of dependence. Pot addicts arc either thinking about getting high getting high, or getting over being high. Many addicts display Amotivational Syn­ drome—a lack of direction, or goals; leth­ argy; and an inability to solve problems. They may experience inability to concentrate and remember, decreased performance at school or on the job, and difficulty in communicat ing. Many try toquitsmokingpotand feel bad if they fail. Heavy smokers may experience mild withdrawal—anxiety, insomnia, trem­ ors, and chills—for one or two days after abstinence. The Substance Abuse Education Program at the Appalachian Wellness Center offers information, consultation, and counseling as­ sistance to students. There are also frequent AA and NA meetings in Boone, and a recov­ ery support group for students is offered through the Wellness Center. ALL STUDENTS INVITED!

They both had to come up with ways to compensate for the loss of their star player. For the Bulls, Michael Jordan, for the Mountaineers, Billy Ross. Ross, although he may not have been quite as valuable as Jordan, graduated from Appa­ lachian after a season in which he lead the Southern Conference in scoring with 24.4 points per game. Ross was also the nation's eighth leading scorer among division I play­ ers and led his team in 11 categories. Replacing Ross will be tough, but Apke has added a wealth of young talent to his arsenal and will rely on his returnees fa- more of a team approach. "We have experience and depth returning, and a good blend of seniors, juniors, and sophomores, to help our three newcomers fit in and contribute as the season progresses," Apke said. Apke returns four starters from last year's squad including pre-season All-Conference selection Chad McClendon. McClendon led the SC in rebounding a year ago and scored in double-figures in 21 of 28 outings, averaging 13.1 points per game. Apke plans to uti­ lize McClendon's tal­ ent on the inside by slowing the pace from last year. According to Mountaineer guard Jeff Williams, getting McClendon involved is of utmost impor­ tance. "When you have ChadMcCienaon someone as good as Chad (McClendon)," he said, "you almost have to get the ball to him." Williams is another player that should figure in the equation if the Mountaineers are to be successful. Williams, who started in the final 18games last year, is an exciting point guard who was third on last year's squad in scoring and was voted by the SC coaches as one of the leagues best defenders. Ricky Nedd returns to join McClendon in the frontcourt. Joining Williams in the backcourt will be Brian Hege, a sophomore who received SC All-Freshman honors a year ago, and junior William Cook. Hege and Cook split time in the starting lineup last year, and each should make valuable contributions in the upcoming season. Joining the backcourt will be freshman talent Junior Braswell. Braswell was a two-time all-area and all-confer­ ence standout at Greens­ boro Page High School last year. He averaged 16.5 points and 8.3 as­ Jeff Williams sists per game as a se­ nior. "The backcourt should be very strong for us in 1993-94," Apke said. "Our personnel in this area is athletic and experienced." That athleticism and experience will be valu­ able assets as the Mountaineers press full court more, mainly due to the reduction of the shot clock to 35 seconds. 'The new shot clock will not affect us dra­ matically because we will be playing eight or nine players," Apke said. "We will look to fullcourt press. Some teams will expect it and some won't" With the new shot clock, the Mountaineers hope to give their opponents less time to shoot by applying that full-court pressure. Other returnees include Tremayne Rooks and Nod Carter, who will compete for a starting role in the Mountaineer frontcourt. Chayim Cunningham, the highly-touted freshman from Chicago, 111., is expected to make immediate contributions in many ar­ eas, while freshman Jeremy Blocker will be used more as a role player. The Mountaineers are predicted to finish sixth in the SC by the league's media, but that assessment may not be on target. "I think we are going to surprise some people," Williams said. "We were picked to finish so low because no one really knows a whole lot about us." Apke believes his team can be as good as anybody. "We have to improve our rebounding," he said. "Another key will be how wehandle the tough early schedule, and how those experi­ ences work in our favor in the conference portion of the schedule." The Mountaineers will meet Nebraska, UNC-Charlotte, Wake Forest, and Clemson among others, making this year's schedule especially tough early. • "There are several team that feel they will be right at the top in late February," Apke said. "Hopefully, Appalachian will be one of those teams in 1993-94." UTC and ETSU picked to battle for top spot BY DAVID KITTRELL ASSISTANT EDITOR At the annual tip-off media conference in Asheville, the media and coaches picked the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to finish first in the conference. Chattanooga Head Coach Mack McCarthy's Moccasins will be losing three starting play­ ers, including their leading scorer Tim Brooks, who added 16.5 points and 4.2 rebounds per game last season. However, the Mocs will retain the leadership and strong scoring abil­ ity of 6-5 senior forward and starter Gary Robb. Robb is a dangerous perimeter shooter and a consistent player in all other categories. He lead the team last year in defensive rebounds and assists in a single game. Junior forward Brandon Bom will be the only other starter returning to the Moccasin line-up. Born finished the season last year with the second best field goal and three-point percentage for his team. Bom consistently scores in double-digits and must continue to do so if UT-Chattanooga plans to repeat as Southern Conference Champs. Guards Chad Copeland, Rich Burns, and Shane Neal will be controlling the tempo for the Mocs. Copeland tops the UT-Chattanooga roster in three-point percentage and is an excellent free-throw shooter as well. McCarthy must experiment with his core of newcomers and effectively work them into the fast-paced game the Mocs run so well. Maurio Hansen, a 6-5 forward from Char­ lotte, and John Oliver, a 6-5 freshman from Marion, Ala., will be names to look out for. Roger Smith, a 6-10 junior and monster rebounder, will be stepping up to fill the shoes of Daymond Woods. Smith averaged 18 points and 16.8 rebounds per game at Knoxville College in Miami, Fla., and hopes to establish himself as the Moccasin's muchneeded starting center. Freshmen recruits and transfers will play a crucial role in UT-Chattanooga's success or failure this season. If the Moccasins are able to incoiporate the young men into their style of play quickly they will be a tough team to beat. EAST TENNESSEE STATE The Buccaneers of East Tennessee State are looking to avenge their loss to UTChattanooga in The Southern Conference Tournament a year ago and to reign asSouthem Conference Champions again. Head Coach Alan LeForce, in his fourth season at ETSU, will be depending on re­ turning starters Trazel Silvers and Darrell Jones to overcome the obstacle of having a young, inexperienced team. The Bucca­ neers are also lacking in the field of big men and are facing what may be their toughest schedule in years. Silvers is a 6-5 senior guard/forward who averaged 14.4 points per game and 7.9 re­ bounds last season. Jones, a 6-9 senior forward averaged 5.8 points and 6.2 re- bounds per game last season. The Bucs quickness and shooting ability will be their strengths this season. Transfer students Geoff Herman and Robert Doggett will be calling the shots on the floor and may be in the starting line-upas early as the first game. Herman, a 6-1 guard, averaged 17.9 points per game last season at Austin Peay and, two seasons ago, made 55 three-pointers. Doggett, a 6-5 guard who transferred from Wake Forest, will be playing the point-guard position due to his exceptional ball-handling abilities. Andy Pennington, the Bucs' 6-9 center, must overcome health problems and contrib­ ute his rebounding abilities if the Bucs want to establish themselves down low. Freshmen Corrie Johnson, Mike Biggs, and Chris Timmerman are all considerable threats to opponents and may step up early to play key roles in the ETSU lineup. ETSU will be taking on tough competition this season. Playing teams like Xavier, Wright State, Marquette, Coppin State, and Virginia Tech, the Buccaneers will need to sharpen their younger player's skills if they expect to vie for the Southern Conference title. Lady Apps finish season BY KEN GALINDO REPORTER The Lady MountaineersField Hockey Team (5-11-1) finished the season with a second place finish last weekend at the Deep South Tournament in Salisbury, NC. Appalachian notched victories against Vir­ ginia Tech and Catawba by the scores of 2-1 and 1-0 respectively. The eventual tourna­ ment champions, Davidson handed Appala­ chian its only defeat, 2-0. 'We played very well as a team and had a very evenly played match against Davidson," Field Hockey Head Coach Cathy Burleson said. Mattie-Jean Hunt, Rachael Megee, and Megan Corradino were named to the Deep South All-Tournament Team, while Burleson received the Franny Homer Award for service to the DeepSouth Asso­ ciation. Also, Jennifer Roy, Rachael Megee, Barry Clyatt, Megan Coradino, Denise Whyte, and Katy DeMarco will represent the Deep South Association in an all-star tournamentat Virginia Beach, VA. Burleson and Assistant Head Coach Mel­ issa Puckett will coach team one at the event "We are a young team," Burleson said, "and 75 percent of the team are freshmen and sophomores. We will have a good nucleus for years to come." Appalachian Grapplers look to fill holes with a combination of new and old talent BY CHAN HARRISON REPORTER The Appalachian Grapplers enter the 199394 year losing five of ten starters. The key to this year becomes who they can find to re­ place some mighty big gaps in their lineup. The Appalachian wrestlers come off a sea­ son where they were 11-4-0. They went undefeated in the Southern Conference with a 4-0-0 record, placingsecond in the Southern Conference Tournament. They were unde­ feated in matches on there home mat and on other school's mats. The four loses came at neutral sites. The Mountaineers sent four wrestlers to the NCAA National Championships, including Donnell Rawls who advanced to the quarterfinals before being beat by secondseeded Lew Rosselli of Edinboro. Victor Balmeceda won the first round match before falling to first seeded Troy Stiener of Iowa. Melvin Crosby also won his first round before falling to fourth seeded Todd Kinney of Iowa State. Cory Creech dropped his first round match. Appalachian lost Bill Baker, Balmeceda, Scott Beauchamp, Creech, Crosby, and Rawls. These seniors combined for a total of 121 wins. The question is how to fill the gaps left from graduation and to find out who will step up to lead the team. The Mountaineers return some very tal- ented wrestlers. At the 118 weight class. Junior Mike Orris comes off a season with a record of 23-13 and 3 pins. Senior Adam Rothman battles for the 126 weight class where last year he went 1 -0. Junior Craig Orren also battles for a spot at 134. Last year he went 2-2. Atthel42weightclass,juniorJohnNesbitt hopes to improve on last year's record of 56 with 1 pin. At 150, Kyle Kuykendall hopes to pick up where he left off last year with an 18-12 record and 1 pin. Senior Chad Collins will be at either 150 or 158. Last year he went 11-5 with 4 pins at the 140 weight class. Senior Shomari Rozier returns at the 167 weight class. Last year he racked up a 27-12 record with 1 pin and was also second in the conference. Sophomore Seth Meyerson, at 177, comes off a year where he finished second in the conference with a record of 10-14 and 1 pin. At 190 Duke Howell hopes to wrestle if he can make weight. He returns after a season with a record of 4-5 with 2 pins. At heavy­ weight, Appalachian returns John Reynolds who wrestled last year at the 190 weight class with a record of 19-7 with 4 pins. Appalachian added three transfer students for the upcoming campaign. Damon Baldwin transfers form Coppin State and hopes to wrestle at the 126 pound weight class. Vince Zullo comes to Appalachian from Penn State. He will battle for the 134 weight class spot. Jeff Mance transfers from West Point He will vie for a spot at 134 or 142. Appalachian has an abundance of red-shirt freshman. Matt Bentley, Eddie Clark, Torrie Bemainden, Chris Townsend, Eric Williams. Bentley will vie for the 158, Clark will fight fora spotat 158 or 167, Bemaiden will fight for 190and Townsend will battle for a spot at 167 or 177. Williams is in the hunt for a spot at 118. I Three freshman will vie for spots in the starting lineup. Tony Harriston, from South Stokes High School, will be fighting for the spot at 118. Brad Ginn, who took fourth in the country at the high school nationals, tries to get in at 150 or 158. Eldred Eady will be in contention for the 142 spot. Coach Paul Mance enters his eighteenth season as the head coach. He has compiled a record of 211-104-6 in dual matches. He has recorded 14 winning season in 17 years. He has also produced at least one conference champion in every one of his 17 years. Appalachian's Black Death second in league BY PATRICK SALEBY REPORTER Appalachian State's club football team, named "Black Death," has had strong show­ ings recently, but still fell to second place in the Club League standings. On OcL 30, the team lost to N.C. State's "Pack Club" 26-14 at Kidd Brewer Sta­ dium. The loss dropped the "Black Death" from first to second in the Gub League stand­ ings with a record of 4-2. The "Black Death" traveled to Chapel Hill on Nov. 7 to face the Tarheel club football team. Appalachian triumphed by holding off a Tarheel rally late in the fourth quarter.

Club League playoffs begin the weekend of Nov.20-21, with the League Champion­ ship game being played the weekend of Dec. 4-5. Asjt stands now, N.C. State's "Pack Club" is in first place, Appalachian's "Black Death" and UNC-Chapcl Hill are tied for second place, and Duke stands in at third. PHILMCCARN.

LE PIC FAIRNESS, ACCURACY AND PUBLIC SERVICE SINCE 1934 NOVEMBER 9-10« 1993 APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE • NC 28608 Health Services sets goals for future DAMIEN CARPER STAFF WRITER Editor's note: Because of growing enroll­ ment at Appalachian and recent budget crunches on the state, Appalachian's health services has been faced with the problem of serving more people with no increase in funds. The Appalachian looked at the health services goals and problems, and how Appalachian's health services stacks up against what other universities offer. This is the first in a series of three articles. Student Health Services has been in exist­ ence at Appalachian for 57 years. In that time many changes in practice and procedure have occurred. Dr. William Derrick, director of health services, said that student health ser­ vices has a number of long and short-term plans for change. According to Derrick, one of the main short term plans is todevelop a better system to deal with the number of students that enter health services daily. "We have between 200 and 250 students coming to the health services each day," said Derrick, "Our short-term plans are to get the students to the right places in a minimum amount of waiting time." Derrick said he wanted to be able to have students approach the front desk and have action taken for their care immedi­ ately. Derrick also said that the health services would add more staff members to deal with the increasing number of students. "In the clinic, we are short one clinician who will be returning next year," Derrick said. " Somewhere down the road, a year or the year after, we would like to add another doctor." Derrick said the main long-term goal is the addition of services. "One service we need to look at is physical therapy. We had a contract with Blue Ridge Physical Therapy two years ago to provide a physical therapist on certain days of the week," said Derrick. However, Derrick said that the contract had to be terminated because of bud­ get reductions. Other long-range goals include improving and increasing health education at Appala­ chian. "We would like to be able to have a greater impact outside the student health services," said Derrick. Derrick said this would include a more intricate relationship with the Wellness Center that could lead to more instruction in the classroom and programs outside the class­ room. The health services budget may also face changes in the future. "Right now, the Student Health Services has an operating budget of $1.3 million dollars; I would like to see that increase to 1.4 million dollars, preferably next year," said Derrick. Derrick said that a larger budget would allow health services to move smoothly by allowing them to place more people to serve the stu­ dents. "Most of our budget goes to salaries," said Derrick, "Our salaries are now approaching one million dollars." Health services does not receive any money from the state. $tudenl fees. interest on reserves, and charges for certain services provide its entire performing budget Derrick said that about 95 percent of the SENATE TONIGHT • • • NATIONAL BRIEFS xx:x :;: • X;X;.; :'x:• ' • . x/ vX;::x V ;/:x: he purpose of the festival is to promote Ipus awareness and knowledge of the Nachian region and culture.

Junior Kevin Thomas, a member of Sigma Nu fraternity, tried to put out the fire. "1 tried to put (the fire) out, but I couldn 't see because there was so much smoke," said Tho­ mas. "When the fire department came, they found it still smoldering, but there were no flames." After investigating,officials from the Boone Fire Department said a lit cigarette left in the lobby started the fire. However, residents on the floor, most of whom are members of Sigma Nu, say that the fire might have been set on purpose. "The fire department is calling it an acci­ dent," said Thomas. "I don't really believe that." Fifth floor residence assistant, Fred Glenn, said healso thought it was possible thatthe fire was set on purpose. "Somebody probably came up on the floor and dropped the cigarette on purpose," said Glenn. Shopping guide rates responsible corporations BY DIANA SMITH COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE Thinking about plunking down $50 for a new pair of Gap jeans? Think again, accord­ ing to a new shopping guide compiled by a public interest research group that gives young consumers the scoop on politically correct purchases. "Students Shopping 4 A Better World," written and published by The Council on Economic Priorities, rates hundreds of multinational corporations on their records on the environment, employment of women and minorities and disclosure practices, as well as taking special note of policies on animal testing and investments in South Af­ rica. As companies have discovered, young people are big business. Teenage Research Unlimited, a youth marketing think tank in Illinois, estimates that teen-agers spent $93 billion of their own money and their parents' money in 1992, according to a July 6, 1993 story in The Washington Post. "Students Shopping 4 A Better World" is the Council on Economic Priorities' attempt to channel young people's spending to companies that demonstrate social responsi­ bility. At the same time, they hope to help young people learn how to flex their economic muscles. "Look at it this way: every time you spend a dollar tobuy somethingacompany sells, you're sending a message. You're saying you not only like the company's clothes or candy or cas­ settes, you also support the way they do busi­ ness," the book's introduction says. For example, the guide takes The Gap Inc. to task for some poor environmental habits (stonewashing jeans for that trendy "worn" look creates pollution because of the chemicals involved), while praising the company's recent recycling efforts. The Gap also owns Banana Republic, a shoe store,and a children's cloth­ ing store. But the book takes a swing at the company for refusing to release information to the coun­ cil, which analyzes information about hun­ dreds of companies for newsletters, books, and other publications. So the guide gives The Gap a rather dubious endorsement. 'This company will not talk to anyone on the outside," the book says. "The Gap calls this 'not politicizing the clothes.' Just because the company wouldn't tell us anything does not necessarily mean it is socially irresponsible. But for a company this big to keep secrets is irresponsible." On the other hand, the council gives high marks to Sony, saying the company generally "works hard to get involved in American com­ munities and to help young Americans learn more about Japanese culture and customs." The guide lists many individual products such as Levi's jeans, Coca-Cola, York Pep­ permint Patties, McDonald's, Wheaties, and other products, with information about the companies that make these products. The book also gives tips on viewing adver­ tising morecritically, information about banks and credit card companies, and health and safety regulations for teens who work in fastfood restaurants. The council was founded in 1969 by Alice Tepper Marlin, a former securities analyst and labor economist at Bumham & Co., because few independent organizations were keeping tabs on companies' environmental and hiring records. The council gathers information for the book by distributing questionnaires to the companies, company publications, telephone interviews, libraries, government agencies, and special interest groups such as the Rainforest Action Network, Sierra Club Le­ gal Defense Fund, and the Humane Society. After months of research, the ratings are then sent to the corporations with requests for up­ dates. If information is not available or incorq plete, the company gets an "I" rating for that category. More information about the council's books and publications can be obtained from the Council on Economic Priorities, 30 Irving Place, New York, NY 10003-0194. Vice-president Al Gore and one-time presi­ dential candidate Ross Perot will meet tonight on "Larry King Live" to debate the North American Free Trade Agreement. Perot is one of the treaty's leading opponents. The Clinton administration hopes the debate will bring more support to the pact which still acks a majority of votes in the House of Representatives.

FIGHT DISRUPTED BY PARAGLIDER The combatants in Saturday night's cham­ pionship fight found their battle postponed in the seventh round by an overzealous fen. James Miller, manager of a local paragliding school, attempted to land within the ring but instead crashed into the ropes. Falling into the crowd, some fans in attendance beat him.

Funny how John Chaney, basketball coach at Temple University, is the biggest adversary of Proposition 48. 2. "Diversity." The letter to the editor that got me this job was about diversity. If you have not read it, I will summarize it by saying: the agenda of campus diversity is racist because its goal is to accept and recruit on the basis of the Civil Rights Movement and of individual of skin color rather than the merit of an individual. James Zan the climate even be called "intellectual?" Farmer said that looking at skin is racist.

It sounds like they are saying, "Our black a camera lens in the name of Righteousness because a are not able to perform academically as well as criminal dies in an accident with pepper spray. People iletes; we do not want the world to know that they march, ignorant of what took place and of what it means :ut iL" Essentially, we should continue selling to be innocent. 5. The tired arguments. "Whites brought blacks over i, bestowing the unearned, and cloaking the truth from Africa." I am not responsible for what took place scandalous athletic/academic institution, eeks of racism. I know people who could not get before I was born. I am not responsible for the actions of any other or any race. No one has ever worked for me free of charge except my mother, father, and the tax payers of this country. If the zealots of injustice have their way, everyone will be working for a single race. Here is another prevalent argument: "Whites are enter­ ing the game of life with 230 points; blacks are beginning with 0." First of all, "Whites" here is plural, as if to include anyone of European descent. Now, a European-American— no, a volitional person—is to sacrifice his/her goals and aspi­ rations, jobs, college, rights and freedom to the golden calf of "equal opportunity," (because of his/her color). I want to be acknowledged as a capable human being with something to offer the world, justasJamesFarmerdidin 1955. I would fight to the death before I will allow a socialist, racist agenda to forcibly strip me of my individual rights. "Points" are earned by people of character. As long as talented people exist and as long aswe look at one another's worth without regard to race, people will have jobs, education, and peace. It goes both ways. We should not teach our brilliant children of any color to be dependent or to expect the unearned. If I am ever in a position of leadership, I will hire and appoint according to what is on the inside of a human being. And if I am the president of a university, there may be 10,000 Asian students who meet the criteria for entering; they will all have a home. " By any means necessary"—this horrible phrase im­ plies the same ugly racist force that the dumb Mississippi hicks used back in the fifties. In fact, "any means" killed Dr. Martin Luther King. One cannot think for himself, make choices and use his mind with the muzzle of a gun pointed at his face. ...Two kindergarten children had lollipops. The teacher took the lollipop away from one child. This child did not understand why this happened. The next day the principal took the other child's lollipop and gave it to the one who had been stripped of his lollipop initially. The other child does not understand why this has happened. b your perspectives exclude diversity? BY WILLIAM C. BALDWIN EDITOR voices heard also demand the silencing of other voices? It it not true that extremists from either side of any issue are philosophically much closer to one another than to any Idon't like"playing the game."

Parallel lines have no with every student's perspective, but surely all of points of intersection; should I logically conclude that at various times, be forced to represent opinions there is no truth? As an editor, I'm faced daily with decisions about ire not our own. perceptions and perspectives. When evaluating the"value" of the most dangerous results of this trend is the zation of some perspectives; more often than not, of any written perspective, I must assess the exclusiveness "right" answer is presented—and that one is no of that perspective: does a perspective categorically deny fclid than any other. Not only are we encouraged to the validity of all others?

I must also examine motivation: does a perspective r. the trend we are experiencing today is not one claim to result for pure goodwill and love but actually I increased diversity of perspectives, but of homogt perspectives.

Are these valid questions? Yes. Are there any easy answers? Correct answers? n. disturbing agendas to which I have been forced to myself this semester have really given me much or thought—these agendas manifest in themselves y evils against which they rail. What is it about nature that dictates that those who most want their The only "correct" answers are those answers which are "politically correct"—if you ask me "political" and "cor­ rect" are terms which are mutually exclusive—and in­ compatible. Political suggests an opinion issue; correct assumes a universal solution. By my reasoning, that which is political necessarily cannot be correct. Politics are a matterof relativism; each perspective is correct from the viewpoint of each observer. I strongly believe that if each of us can leave Appala­ chian with a grasp of the concept, "Just because I believe it, does not make it so"—that we could individually lead much more rewarding lives and contribute to making our world a better place. True understanding and "faith" (if you will) in our own belief systems should allow us the strength of conviction necessary for us not to feel obligated to force our beliefs on others. Those beliefs which have built into their systems the "conversion" of others to a particular way of thinking are perhaps the weakest beliefsof all. Followers of any belief who feel the need to impose their beliefs on others probably have the weakest convictions of any believers. The next time you hear someone address the issue of diversity, examine within yourself those beliefs which are the strongest. Does that belief allow room for intersection with other beliefs? Imagine a perspective far from your own: what if someone were trying to force that belief system into your life? Probably we all have different opinions about what diversity is; when I think about diversity, I think about all the perspectives which don't exclude all other perspec­ tives. Before deciding that "diversity" excludes your views, your perspectives,your beliefs—firstdecide if your views, your perspectives and your beliefs exclude diversity. bter turn out in Boone was pitifully low BY JOHN KERSON SPECIAL TO THE APPALACHIAN e past few weeks,I havewritten severalcolumns for palachian.

For all of you who are reading The Appalachian with tired, blood­ shot eyes and that tight, twisted nervous feeling you get when you've been stressed out for weeks and weeks. You shall overcome. You don't have to live your life counting down the days until the weekend. Your sole motivation for going to class today and tomorrow doesn't have to rely on the comforting fact that Thanks­ giving is just around the comer. You don't have to coax and convince yourself to get out of bed every morning. Life is great You've worked hard this semester. Alright, maybe you've achieved an all-time slackness high and you don't care. Maybe your GPA was count­ ing on you for a boost this time around, and you're kicking yourself in the seat o f your pants because you've taken a step backward instead of forward. Don't give up hope. Times are hard — lots of tests and papers, projects and reports to master at the last minute. Procrastination smirks and sneers when you try to relieve a slight amount of exhaustion at 3 a.m. You turn out the lights, crawl under the covers and turn over to discover guilt lying beside you. You have what it takes to be the best Your bank account is low because of poor budgeting throughout Aug.,Sept. and Oct. You're living off of pasta. You're tired, you have a chronic cough and runny nose, and no one has the health, energy or time to sympathize or console. The sun will come out tomorrow. Where do you go? Who do you turn to? How far of a drop would it really be if you just let go of the rope? Well, take a deep breath, pick your head up and drink a glass of water. Stand up straight and smile; feel it spread from your face to your heart, to your toes and back up to your head. Stop drinking 19 cups of coffee a day. Stop trying to study with Head Like a Hole pumped up as loud as your stereo will allow. Realize that your life is a character line on the face of humanity, and every Appalachian student you see bustling to class everyday is the same. Realize that your life is as good as your attitude, and your attitude takes orders from you. If you're just hanging on until Christmas break, what are you going to do when break's over? How do you expect to achieve your goals and dreams if you can barely peel yourself out of bed every morning? You '11 never catch up with your poten­ tial if your standing still, feeling sorry for yourself and worrying about things you can't control. Life isn't bigger than you are; you've just let it beat you down into a sqatting position — head tucked, tail between your legs. STAND UP. Rub the callouses off of your enthusiasm for Mon., Tues., Wed., Thurs., and Fri., as well as Sat and Sun. The only limitations in life are the ones you put on yourself. You've heard all this before; now listen, let it sink in and be encouraged. We're too young to be disheartened. We have too much potential to give in so easily. And we're in this thing together.

Some of you readers out there are not going to read this article because it is a review of a country concert No matter how popular this style of music becomes there are still those of you who continue to view country as a red­ neck thing.

The building has four tts and each floor has 21 rooms. Also, lk is all female. This makes it easier for the mcn to get to know each other. The goal of Big Sis/Lil Sis is to make freshmen feel welcome, according to Roberta Shukis, a chairperson of the program. It serves as a support group to make sure fresh­ men adjust well to college life. According to Ashley Potts, the Resident Director of Belk, someone like a big sis can provide guidance and strength to tackle the freshmen blues. At the bonfire, I spoke with many of the residents who are involved with the Big Sis/ Little Sis program. Beth Watson is the BigSis of Jenny Waksmunski, who is a freshman from Stanfield. Jenny and Beth wrote to each other over thesummer once they were sent the other's address. This was the beginning of the bond that was soon to form between the two. When they got to school and actually met, the bond only strengthened. They do many things together, like going to the Quinn, going to dinner, going to church, and going shop­ ping. "Jenny is like a real little sister to me," said Beth. "Since 1 am an RA, I don't get the chance to see my family a whole lot and whenever I find myself actually missing my actual little sister, I turn to Jenny. She gives me a fresh perspective on family." "1 am really lucky to have Beth as my big sister," Jenny replied. "Since I only have three brothers, Beth represents a real big sister to me. She has more experience and she helps me deal with the freshmen blues. She's not only my big sister, she's my friend." CALENDAR OF EVENTS: Tuesday the 9th\ beansTalk: Live Jazz.

BY AMY TERRANT ASSISTANT EDITOR Not long ago, my editor, Kristine Forrest, wrote a column about pet peeves and got some interesting responses from readers. Some told her that they'd experienced many of the same grievances and got a good chuckle from her comments. Her column reminded me of some of my own pet peeves, inspiring me to write on the subject. I find myself laughing at some of the things that irritate me, so I hope that we can laugh together. The first thing that comes to mind is the obnoxious noise that cellophane makes when someone opens a bag of chips, espe­ cially in the middle of class. Now I admit that I buy snacks from the vending ma­ chines beforeclassjustlikeeverybody else. I go to my class and eat during those few moments before class starts. I certainly don't object to others doing the same. What bothers me is that there is always one person in the back of the room who decides to loudly open a bag of chips in the middle of class, disturbing everyone in the class, even the instructor. These people are . usually the ones who also crunch the ice in their cups after the drink is gone. Whoever you are, please don't do that! Okay, now for some visual imagery. You are about to walk into a building and you see that only the right side of the double doors is open. You approach the door, only to be stopped in your tracks by a line of lazy or inconsiderate people walking in the other direction. All of these people exit through the already-open door instead of opening the door on their right. Then you have to wailfor the traffic to get out of your way. Doesn't that bother you?! Me, too!! Hey, guys—opening a door isn't that hard. Speaking of traffic, I guess I have much the same feelings as many others do about the way some people drive around here. It really isnot necessary to drive so fast. Keep that in mind. And please watch where you are going. I thought I'd just throw that in. Next, I'd like a show of hands: how many of you go to Belk Library, hoping to spend a quiet evening doing homework? I don't know about you, but Belk Library is the LAST place I'd go if I wanted peace and quiet! Do you know what I mean? I suppose the mornings and early after­ noons at the library aren't so bad, but come nightfall, the building becomes Party Cen­ tral. Why do people have to talk so loud 1 Groups of people get together, I suppose with the intention of studying. Yet some­ how, the gathering turns more into a social event than an academic one. Whatever happened to the librarian who goes around saying "Shh!"? Back to the part about noisy bags, some­ one is always able to sneak past the Circu­ lation Desk with bags of candy from the Sweet Shop. These bags are as bad as their cellophane cousins. STOP IT!! Here's a situation that plays on my inse­ curities. I despise having someone stand­ ing directly behind me. If I'm standing in line, I don't mind it, but if there's no line, I feel like my space is being invaded. If I'm just wandering in a store and someone is walking closely behind me, I become very uncomfortable. I don't even have to see the person. I can just sense that someone's there. I guess I'm just used to having a certain amount of space to myself. Know what I mean? It's time to mention the one thing that irritates me above all else: when some fool tells me I need to get a tan! Some really well-meaning person will suggest I go to a tanning booth and bake myself to get a lovely tan, as if it would really make a difference to them. "You should get a healthy tan," they say. Now I have noopinion about others who like to get tans. I'm just saying it isn't for me. I tend to burn to a fine crisp and don't want to expose myself to, what would be for me, damaging sunlight. So enough already! 1 really do say these things in fun, except maybe for the part about tanning. I suppose it's better to laugh things off than to get really peeved and choke the living #$<£#$%* outof someone. If you haveany completely obnoxious (and amusing) sce­ narios you'd like to share, I'd love to hear them! �WESTERN CAROLINA, November 13 1:30pm Women's Golf: Coastal Carolina Nov. 12-14 Womens's Cross Country: NCAA Dist.

Even after los­ ing five starters from last years team, the lady spiker's can clinch at least a tie for the crown by beating Davidson at Varsity Gym tommorow night at 7:00 pm. Because the teams in theSouthern Confer­ ence only play a round robin and a half season, only the first meetings teams have in the season count towards their conference records. While Appalachian's games against EastTennesseeState and Marshall this week­ end are important, they have no bearing on the race for the conference title. The Lady Apps beat ETSU in four games on Oct. 22, while Marshall handed the Lady Mountain­ eers their only league loss in five games on Oct 24. "We're in real good shape," Appalachian Head Coach Dave Markland said." We just need to make sure we do our part, take care of Davidson and we have a real good chance to repeat. It would be a real pat on the back for our kids if we do win, especially after losing five starters from last year." If East Tennessee State can beat Marshall tomorrow, a victory by the Apps would give them the title outright If Marshall wins, the Apps need to win themselves, plus Furman needs to beat UT-Chattanooga in order to give the lady Mountaineers a share of the conference championship. ***wkland savs he expects the Furman Palafapless Moccasins whose record is 2-30.

PDR • DAVID What The Appalachian State Soccer Team fell one game short of the conference title and an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament this weekend, losing to Furman 3-2 in the final game of the Southern Conference soccer tour­ nament on Sunday. The second-seeded Mountaineersadvanced to the final by defeating The Citadel 2-0 on Friday, and Georgia Southern 3-2 on Satur­ day. Steve Stahlschmidt opened the scoring for the Mountaineers in the championship game with a goal at 1:23. Furman, however, an­ swered with a goal by Bubba Self to tie the score at one at the half. Furman entered the second half with two unanswered goals but Appalachian narrowed the margin to3-2 on a goal by senior midfielder Brian Jillings at the 82:49 mark. Several Appalachian attempts were turned away in the final minutes, sealing the win for the Paladins. Appalachian Head Coach Art Rex lauded Furman s efforts. "Furman is a good team, and we've got nothing to hang our heads about, he said.

Conference championship in Greensboro, (photo courtesy of Watauga Democrat) BY MARK MURNANE REPORTER jf!?i BY KEVIN HOEING REPORTER Radford last Tuesday, the Apps rebounded by downing Georgia Southern 15-12, 1510, 13-15, and 15-5 on Friday, and pummelingUTC 15-10,15-10, and 15-5. "We're playing really well right now, especially with all our injuries," Markland said, refering to starters Michelle Wright and Miriam Sealey who have missed sev­ eral games due to various ailments. Wright underwent arthroscopic knee surgery last Monday, and isn't expected to play again until Sunday's match against Marshall. Sealey reinjured a sprained ankle against Radford and saw only limited action against Georgia Southern and UTC. "Miriam played in the back row, prima­ rily for passing and defense. We wanted to be sure she was okay before putting her back up front by the net. [Her ankle] is much better, she is pretty much ready to go. She should play against Davidson," Markland said. With Wright out and Sealey unable to play hernormal position, several other Apps stepped up. "Deanna Keen had a really good couple of games.She played really good all around volleyball. Sheri Leverette played really well for us also," Markland said. Freshman Emily Overcash stepped up her game in place of the injured Sealey and turned in two very solid performances. "Emily did a very, very nice job for us, especially against Georgia Southern. I'm very proud of the way she played," Markland said. Heidi McElhaney continues to play well as she knotched 25 kills in the two games, including 17 against Georgia Southern. The Warehouse, the tournament was able to attract such teams as UNC-CH, Ten­ nessee, and the University of South Caro­ lina. The rugby team started the semester with a bang that set the tone for the rest of the season. The strength of the club was proven when Appalachian State toreapart rival Guilford 760 and followed with an impressive win over Davidison. There were only two setbacks of the season: losses to UNC-Chapel Hill and the University of Tennessee. Team President Chris Cuddy said: "The Chapell Hill game was a dissapointment, we Appalachian finished secondbehind the University of Tennessee. Appalachian rugby player Brian Kisner said: The UT game was very physical, we hung in there with them but we had trouble getting the ball into the try zone." Overall, the tournament was a great success and Appalachian plans to host the tournament again next year. The team played in its final game of the semester this weekend against West- the guys had a hard time coming together as a team. It was by far our worst performance of the year." A week following the Chapel Hill match, Appalachian State hosted the first ever Fall Classic Rugby Tournament.

Approximately 40 clubs and organizations participated in the parade, with Grand Marshall Dino Dibemardi, director of student development, and the Appalachian marching band leading the way. Dibemardi was chosen as grand marshall by the Student Government Association cabi­ net because of his involvement and close contact with students. "He has contributed a lot to students by working with student clubs and organiza­ tions," said Doyle Chambers, SGA public affairs chair.

In the continuing effort to introduce private businesses into the once-communist society, Edwards works to introduce small-scale en­ terprises to Russia. Small-scale refers to enterprises with less than 200 employees and assets under one billion rubles. In essence, the World Bank sets up fran­ chises and sells them to the highest bidder. Representatives from the bank dissolvechains and then sell the outlets individually. The outlets are sold through an auction process to insure the whole population is free to partici­ pate and not just the old-party hierarchy. "The three principals are fair, open, and a dramatic increase in the rate of privatization. Edwards does see support from the Russian quick," he said.

Voters decide on bond referendum today BY DAWN MCGUIRE EDITOR Today voters will decide on a state bond referendum thatcould leave Appalachian with $23.8 million for two new buildings. On campus voting will take place from 6:30 a.m. until 7:30 p.m. at Farthing Audito­ rium and the College of Business and there will be approximately 20 voting locations off campus. Students can check with the Wa­ tauga County Board of Elections for their precinct. The referendum is on $740 million in bonds of which $310 million is designated to the University of N.C. system. If the bond passes, Appalachian will get $15 million for a math/science complex and $8.8 million for an academic support services building Other bondson the ballot are $310 million of community college bonds, $145 million for clean water bonds and $35 million for state parks bonds. The community college bonds would also affect the Appalachian area with $2.3 million going to Caldwell Community College. Signs around town linking the preservation of Howard's Knob to the state parks bonds have caused some confusion. None of the money that would go to state parks has been earmarked for Howard's Knob, in fact Howard's Knob has not been approved as a state park. However, state and local groups are working to have the area designated as a state park. If the bonds pass, supporters are estimating that more than 900 jobs would be created in Watauga County, 70 of which would be per­ manent jobs. "If taken all together, (the bonds) will create jobs, improve worker skills and maintain the quality of life," said N.C. State Treasurer Harlan Boyles. Boyles also said it is unlikely the bonds would result in a tax increase. NATIONAL BRIEFS COURT ALLOWS DISMISSAL OF GAYS IN MILITARY On Friday,theSupremcCourtlifted a lower court order which barred the military from discriminating against homosexuals. The original case involved Petty Officer Keith Mcinhold, who sued for reinstatement into the Navy after being discharged foradmitting he was gay. U.S. District Judge Tory Halter granted the request on Jan. 29. Halter later issued a cram order saying the January ruling was to protect all military personnel and threatened the Pentagon with fines up to $10,000 a day if it continued dismissing admitted homosexuals. The Pen­ tagon then petitioned the Supreme Court, which overturned the order. FIRES CONTAINED On Saturday, fire fighters battling the nu­ merous California wildfires made progress toward taming some of the worst flare ups with a little help from Mother Nature.

I do have to disagree with your vehement statethat "Sex outside of Matrimonial Bliss—is 'OFF s' and constitutes SIN!" First of all, do you mean est that either all marriages are happy, or that sex "urs when a state of Marital Blissexists? In the first 38 I think most people would agree, that not all ges are happy. re is a big difference between marital bliss and existing within a relationship,a very big difference. In the second case, sex is notabsen'. until marital blissis achieved. Women have for centuries been given to men in marriage with little more knowledge than to simply obey and do their wifely duty. Women were expected to endure, not enjoy sex—not exactly what I would call bliss. Your statement also implies that the act of sex without the legal binding, (I say "legal" and not "spiritual" for a reason here), of one woman to one man is wrong. Do you know why that is? I suggest you read a work called "The Chalice and The Blade." It is not fluff, nor some piece of new age fiction that masquerades as legitimate informa­ tion. This book is an archeological explanation of the formation of our modern Judeo-Christian framework for thought and society. I'll give you a short recap of the highlights. You see, in the days before there was one mighty masculine god, there was a goddess. (I can see that statement causing all types of bells and whistles to go off all over this campus.) As the worshipers of a single masculine god conquered the areas worshipping an agri­ cultural goddess they encountered new ideas. However, they felt threatened by some of the things they found in the culture they had conquered. Things like women holding both economic and political power, women who led the rites of the temples (therefore having spiritual power), women who could refuse a man that treated her as an inferior. In short, they did not like running into a society where the women were con­ sidered the equals of men. In response to this, the ruling, maledeity-follow­ ing elite passed laws to re­ strain and lessen the power of the women. One such law was that a woman could not in­ herit land. All land must be passed to a son or the nearest living male relative, or his heirs. Another law was to make the temples a part of the state and therefore subject to censorship and taxes. The ero­ sion of the position of women continued and it was a very slow process. It took genera­ tions for the old society to be completely dismantled, and then the ruling class decided to make sure that they would not need to deal with the situation again. So, they began to indoctrinate the people into theirown religion. As the decades and centuries passed, new oral tradition was created. It told of the former society, and painted it as evil. One of these parables was of how a woman was tempted away from truth by the forces of See SORRY page 4 "When a thought takes one's breath away, a lesson on grammar seems an im­ pertinence." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson Vote today If you are registered and able to vote, then today is the day. North Carolina voters will decide on a state wide bond referendum, which includes $23.8 million for Appalachian. Appalachian would use the money to build an academic support services building (8.8 million) and to construct phase one of a math/ science complex ($15 million). If you are registered to vote, than you have the opportu­ nity to make an impact on this state and this campus for years to come. The issues in the bond package are serious ones and will create lasting changes in North Carolina. The $740 million in bonds consists of $310 million for the University of North Carolina system, $250 million for community colleges, $145 million for clean water bonds and $35 million for state parks. On this campus, space has been a problem for years and two new buildings would alleviate crowding and allow the university to grow. A new math and science building is needed due to the fact that the Rankin Science building was designed to accommodate less than half of the students that currently populate its classrooms. The academic support services building would house such offices as admissions, regis­ tration, residence life, financial aid and cashier's office. Right now, students have to ran around from building to building to take care of these things. The buildings which currently house these offices, such as I.G. Greer and Hagman Hall, would be used for classroom space. Caldwell Community College would also benefit from the passage of the bonds and plans to use the 42.3 million it would receive for a classroom building to be constructed on its Watauga campus. The bonds not only affect education in North Carolina but will have significant impacts in areas that affect everyone. The clean water bonds would provide new and cleaner water systems and upgrades on existing systems. The state park bonds would address needs of current parks and includes $10.5 million for land acquisitions. The timing of the bond is very good because interest rates are lower than they have been in over 20 years. The economics of the situation make sense, but we need to act now. No one can tell what interest rates will be like in five to ten years. So those of you who are registered to vote, get out today and support your school and your state.

Nov. 2 bond To the Editor, I'm writing this letter in ref­ erence to the November 2 state bond referendum vote. A state parks bond will be a part of that package. This bond directly affects the Howard's Knob issue which many people care deeply about. We often feel that things today have become so complex that we are only one vote, one voice and don't really make a difference. This time, the attitude must change. Some have already realized that one voice can be heard. Your one vote and one voice are very important. When people acknowledge that fact and put their voices to work, there will be a chorus loud enough and strong enough to save a mountain—OUR mountain!!

The substance also drains sodium from the body, he said. "It seems to enhance mental function," Wenk said. He added that caffeine is less addicting than nicotine or other drugs and will posi­ tively affect only people who are physically or mentally fatigued. Those well-rested will only experience anxiousness, he said. And Wenk said the body does build up a tolerance to caffeine—an event that could create "nasty headaches"for about three days if a regular drinker does not ingest caffeine.

She wants her students sparkling lights of the American shoreline. "to see that math is a higher and less hostile These lights were symbols of the end of her light ." Freitag expressed her concerns toward the six-year journey to America—the light at the global problems. She cited the major world­ wide difficulties as instances of "misunder­ standing and non-communication." Freitag said, "We should aim at togetherness, not separation. The melting pot (of America) is far from melting." She uniquely paralleled the study of math­ ematical theory with helping to end racial prejudices. She said, "The prejudices people have are based on faulty generalizations. Mathematical ethics teaches students not to depend on faulty generalizations. This real­ ization can help to end prejudices." A lively woman in her mid-eighties,Freitag says that she will teach until it is physically impossibleTdt her to do so. She says that she "does not want to be put on a shelf," and that she teaches "because I have to. I have an inner voice and it makes me terribly happy."

His training included anatomy physiology, circulatory and deep tissue '-sage, passive joint movement, and stress ~*agement. His internship was in Tradi'•®1 Chinese Medicine, acupressure, and ^tsu massage. ^ native of California, Metheny moved to Th Carolina in 1992 to continue his mas^ business. ince I was a new customer, I needed to fill some information which might be relin receiving massage therapy. Metheny ^^sed that he wanted to be aware of his Physical conditions before giving a Ron Methery, C.M.T. at the Hats Off Salon, demonstrates Shiatsu massage techniques. "I'm concerned with a client's total wellbeing," said Metheny. "Also, the information will only be seen by me. It's completely confidential." The massage I received was the Shiatsu massage, a type of bodywork which origi­ nated in Japan. Shiatsu is a Japanese word, meaning "finger pressure." It involves finger and hand pressure on the acupressure points and gentle stretches, with the intentof balanc­ ing the body's energy to promote good health. "I believe that the massage is not just a physical experience. It can be emotional and spiritual as well," said Metheny. After I filled out the information sheet, I paid close attention to my surroundings. The the floor, and in one comer was a stereo playing Japanese music. "This is good background music because it doesn't have a beat," said Metheny. "When people listen to music, they pay attention to the beat. This music allows clients toconcen­ trate on their breathing instead." Metheny stressed the importance of fo­ cused breathing during the massage. He feels that the massage is really a partnership be­ tween the client and the body worker. "In order for the massage to be really ben­ eficial, it's important to concentrate on main­ taining slow, complete breaths throughout the massage," said Metheny. "Some clients feel the urge to fall asleep, which won't do much good in this type of massage." Shiatsu uses acupressure, gentle stretches, and focused breathing to release blocked energy, resulting in the release of tension and pain, reduction of stress and fatigue, and the balanced functioning of muscles, nerves, and organs. Metheny said that specific acupressure points affect specific organs in the body. Metheny charges $30 per hour for the Shiatsu massage. Other therapeutic massages offered at the Hats Off Salon are the Swedish and rehabili­ tative massages. The Swedish massage in­ volves systematically kneading and pressing the soft tissue of the entire body. It releases physical (and emotional) tension, relaxes and tones muscles, improves circulation, and en­ ergizes the entire body. The charge for this type of therapy is $35 per hour. The rehabilitative massage focuses on re­ lieving chronic patterns of tension and dis­ comfort due to injuries, overuse, or tension to the body. This deep-tissue approach includes deep pressure on contracted areas, such as muscle and tendon fibers. The rehabilitative massage costs S40 per hour. "Sometimes people alternate the types of massages they get each time. This gives them a more well-rounded type of therapy," said Metheny. To make an appointment with Ron Metheny, call the Hats Off Salon at 2640003. Discounts are available for students and senior citizens. Also gift certificates are available.

That's what wellnessis all about—selfcare and balance in all the important areas of your life. It is as important to sleep as it is to study, and play is just as important as work. You've probably read self-help books and articles that tell you all the things you should do fora healthy lifestyle: eat right, drink lots of water, exercise, get adequate sleep, love your work or studies, and don't forget to play. How on earth do you manage to do all this, taking 17 hours with three labsand working 15-20 hours a week? By the time you get home at night, all you can do is fall in bed, much less exercise and floss your teeth. The key is time management. It's easy to do time management during the summer and on weekends when you have lots of time to manage. But what on earth do you manage, when every hour is already committed and free moments here and there are taken up with hundreds more tasks than you can ever possibly accomplish. So, begin with goal-setting. To do this, you might write down all the projects, as­ signments, and tasks that are important. Then rank each item on your list. Give an A rank to those tasks that must be completed as soon as possible, B for less essential tasks, and C for tasks that can bedone sometime in the future. . . • For step 2, highlighl in your day-Aimer all the waking hours when you are not in class or working. Make sure you have mealtimes identified—at least a half-hour set aside to eat regular meals. Using your highlighted hours,assign tasks to each lime block. Assign the A items first. Make sure there is adequate time tocoverall the A items before you block out time for B and C items. If you have two term papers you have rated A, the divide the highlighted time between the two tasks. As you begin your projects and the actual studying, break your tasks down into several smaller tasks. Instead of "writing a term paper," begin by breaking the task up into parts like "defining the topic," "library re­ search," (may be several tasks), "outline," Organizing notes,""writing a draft,""edit­ ing," and "final draft" It's important to recognize accomplish­ ments as you complete tasks. Be sure to take breaks often. When you complete a minitask, stop, relax, take a short walk, breathe deeply, drink a glass of water, relax, and play for a few minutes before going on tothe next task. Sometimes, when you stop focusing on a task and do something else for awhile, you'll have new insights and ideas while you are taking a break. Archimedes discovered the principle of displacement while taking a bath. Allow yourself the chance to make similar discoveries by relaxing often and planning breaks into your schedule. —Set aside 10 m inutes a day for planning. —Use your peak energy times to do your | most difficult subjects. —Maintain a clean and well-organized study area so you can find what you need immediately. —Do one thing at a time. —Reduce time wasters (telephone, clean­ ing, socializing in library). —Take breaks for energy, creativity, and resL —Reward yourself for a job well done. —Say "no" when you need to. Managing your time is the first step to­ ward managing your stress. By gaining control of your time you can use it both for academic success and for your own personal health maintenance orientation. You can make sure you have the time for healthy eating and exercise, for fun and play and laughter, that all work together to keep you well. For more information about stress man­ agement, the Wellness Center offers two Stress Management workshops every week: Mondays at 1:00 in the Counseling Center and Thursdays at 2:00 in the Wellness Cen­ ter. 1 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 2 NOVEMBER 1993 PAGE 6 Mountaineers triumph over UTC, 39-14 BY PHIL MCCARN EDITOR Saturday, the Mountaineers triumphed with a rain-soaked, 39-14 victory over the University of Tennessee- Chattanooga.(photo by Paul Lampe) university ot l ennessee- Chattanooga. The Appalachian football team has not had many days in the sun so far this season, but on Saturday, a rain-soaked mess that conjured images of their miserable year, the Mountain­ eers shone brightly in a 39-14 Homecoming victory over UT-Chattanooga. "I am just glad to end the three-game losing streak," ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore said. "Thescore could've been 17-14and we would have been just as happy." The Mountaineers, who had their chances to take the lead in the first half, shut out the Mocs and exploded for 25 points in the second stanza, claiming its second victory of the season. The teams were dead-locked at 14 after the first half. Appalachian churned up 349 yards on the yarns tne ground. Damon Scott lead the way with 168 yards and one touchdown on 23 carries, while Mountaineer quarterback Scott Satterfield rushed 19 times for 117 yards and three touchdowns. Satterfield was also effective in the air, completing 12 of 21 passing attempts for 132 yards. Appalachian took the lead for good on a 22yard field goal by Kyler Ferguson with 8:42 remaining in the third period. The Mountaineer offense helped with the punting troubles that the team has experi­ enced of late by keeping the punting unit off of the field. Will Burkett only punted one time for 41 yards. Appalachian's defense held the Mocs to just 117 yards on the ground and stopped UTC drives with four interceptions. The Mountaineers will have this weekend off, returning home the following week to take on conference rival Western Carolina.

Clemson's Renee Garrison hit the upper right comer of the net in the 22nd minute to open up the scoring. Carolyn Davis added the second Clemson goal just two minutes later on a rebounded shot. The Lady Apps were hindered in the first half by a strong wind, but were unable to take advantage of the wind in the second half. "We had our chances to score in the second half, but came up short," said coach Bob Goddard. "Our front line again played well, with Colleen Aldridge, Aundrea Clark, and Erica Freas setting up many chances, but we failed to finish them. Our backs also played well, with Beth Erickson, Tammy Simmons, and Laura Bryan having strong games. Saundra Kanner continues to impress in the midfield, and I like our chances of finishing on a winning note this year." The Lady Mountaineers' final match of the regular season will be played at Wake Forest next Saturday at 3:00 p.m. Then they will host the Fourth Annual Southern Women's Soccer Association Invitational Tournament in Boone on Nov. 13-14.

Lady Apps take two of three BY MARK MURNANE REPORTER The Appalachian State Women's Volley­ ball team showed its true character this past week. The team, suffering from a rash of injuries, got excellent play from several re­ serves in winning two of three matches. The Lady Spikers dropped a four-set match to UNC-Greensboro on Wednesday, Oct 27, then rebounded to beat conference rival Furman on Friday Oct 29 and Western Caro­ lina on Oct 31. Miriam Sealy, who Head Coach Dave Markland called the team leader on the court, physically as well as mentally, twisted her ankle in thesecond game against UNC-Greensboro. "Losing Miriam, plus looking ahead to two big conference matches, kind of took our minds out of the game a little,"Markland said. Greensboro went on to down the Apps in four games 15-11,15-11,7-15, & 15-4. On Friday, the Paladins of Furman visited Varsity Gym. With Sealy out, Markland started freshman April Sorrells at outside hitter. Sorrells responded by playing what Markland described as a very steady match. The team responded also, turning in one of their best performances of the season. 'That was one of the better matches of the year," Markland said. "It was a really big win for us. We played, without a doubt, the best total defense of the year. Everyone concen­ trated on rotating and being in the right posi­ tion. We played a very business like, smart game." The Apps beat Furman in three straight games 15-10, 15-12, & 15-13. The match would be the last one for Michelle Wright for several weeks. Doctors decided that Wright needed surgery on the knee she injured at the South Carolina game. Wright had surgery yesterday morning, and Markland hopes to have her back in time for the conference tournament at the end of the month. With both Wright and Sealy out, Heidi McElhaney stepped up and turned in a record perfomance as the Lady Spikers tamed the Catamounts of Western Carolina 15-13,159, & 19-17 on Sunday. McElhaney recorded 27 kills, setting an Appalachian State record for most kills in a three game match. Although Western Caro­ lina came into the game with a 4-18 record, they were picked in the pre-season to finish second in conference. 'Their record is not at all a reflection of how good they are. They have had some injuries and got all their players back for us," Markland said. Sorrells, starting again for Sealy, racked up 12 kills and Amy Kolomechuk,who started for Wright, put away 10 kills to lead the Apps. The Apps were hit again by the injury bug against the Catamounts as Sorrells wentdown in the third game with a twisted ankle. Markland said she was to have an X-ray taken yesterday. Markland expects Sealy to be back in practice this week. The team travels to Georgia Southern and UT-ChattaWestern Carolina! (photo by jThnHeiselj """ nooga.

CEO lecture series begins Enthusiastic fans of all ages will cheer on the Mountaineers Saturday afternoon as they play the Homecoming football game against East Tenneesse State University, (photo by Keith Jackson) State bond vote could bring $24 million to Appalachian BY DAWN MCGUIRE EDITOR On Nov. 2, North Carolina voters will decide whether Appalachian will receive state money to constuct two new buildings, a math/science complex and an academic sup­ port building. The buildings are included in part of a statewide bond referendum that would give $310 million to theUni versity of North Caro­ lina system; $23.8 million of that would come to Appalachian. Approximately $8.8 million will fund the costruction of the Academic Support Ser­ vices Building and the remaining $15 mil­ lion will go to phase one of the Math/Science Complex. million in community college bonds,$145 mil­ lion in clean water bonds and $35 million in state parks bond. University adminstrators, state leaders and student leaders have been pushing for the pas­ sage of the bond since the beginning of the semester. During a press conference earlier this week. Chancellor Francis Borkowski said the refer­ endum was a "critical vote"and that if the bond does not pass, Appalachian could suffer. According to Borkowski, larger class sizes and enrollment caps would be possible conse­ quences if the bond fails. Officials in Appalachian's administration have been planning for the Academic Support Services Building and the Math/Science Com­ plex for several years. Support Services Building could begin imme­ diately if the bond is passed. The building would be built on Rivers Street across from the tennis courts, where the rock houses, which will be demolished, are currently lo­ cated. Demolition of two of the buildings are underway. The location will also be where the univer­ sity plans to relocate the main entrance to the school. The building would house the offices of the registrar, admissions, residence life, career planning and placement, cashier's office and financial aid. According to administrators, a location for the Math/Scienc Complex has not been cho­ sen. A flyer distributed by the university stas See BOND page 2 BY HOLLY CRANE REPORTER L. M.

He also said that today's economy be­ haves predictably, and that officials would argue over what to do about the economy and citizens will ask for it to be fixed. "Corporate America is under siege from government officials down to corporate experts. We are asked to raise salaries and lower jobs as well as create jobs and pro­ duce technology," said Baker. He closed by saying ," we are still the ideal and the hope of the world,despite our frailties. Never forget anything is possible See CEO page 2 Senate debates changes in election rules BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER Tuesday night, the student senate debated changes to the election by-laws. A major concern was a section specifying the requirements to serve on the elections com­ mittee, a group of five individuals who over­ see the SGA presidential and vice-presiden­ tial elections. The changes in the election by-laws were passed with a 31-12 vote and four absten­ tions. The measure needed two-thirds ap­ proval. An amendment was added requiring students to "meet the academic requirements of senators." The by-laws originally stated that the elec­ tions committee would consist of threesena­ tors, the rules committee chair and assistant rules chair. proposed The section was amended to state that stu­ dents, not just senators, would be allowed to serve on the committee. Sean Coggin, rules chair, explained the proposed change. "From changing the word to 'student'...I'm simply broadening the pool of individuals I can choose from," he said. "Instead of choosing from 50 to 79 senators I can chose from 11,000 college students." He emphasized that the selection process would not change and the nominees would still have to meet senate approval. They would also have to meet the basic criteria set in the by­ laws. Coggin was questioned about the research behind the amendments. "I talked to people who worked with the campaigns last year...Dave Cox, Keith Van Wagner, Edith Featherston, J.D. Adams, and a whole bunch of individuals who were involved in the elections," Coggin said. Senators Keith Van Wagner, off campus, of the amendment and said he saw it as a way and Dave Cox, Coffey, both said they were to further empower the students. unaware the measure was being researched "(This change) is allowing a broad number when they were asked their opinions of the of people to become leaders," said Adams.

BEACH ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR Appalachian State University has chosen to honor Dr. Bob H. Greene, President of Forsyth Technical Community College, with a Distinguished Alumni Award. Greene graduated from Appalachian in 1957 with a Bachelor of Arts degree and in 1961 with a Master of Arts. He received his doctorate in education from Florida's Nova Uni- versity. Green continued his studies at the University of North CarolinaChapel Hill, Western Carolina Uni­ versity and University of South Ala­ bama. Since May 1981, Greene has served as the president of the fifth largest community college in North Caro­ lina. With annual enrollments of 23,000, Forsyth Community College Greene offers 51 curriculum programs and 575 continuing education opportuni­ ties. During his twelve years as presi­ dent, Greene successfully promoted two bond referendums for the college and was honored as one of the nation's most innovative presidents by the league for innovation in community colleges. The college's new Health Technologies Facility was named Greene Hall in 1990. Greene has twenty-five years prior experience in public education at the elementary, junior high and senior high levels as instructor, principal, planner, and director of secondary education. Greene also served as Chairman of the Board for the United Way of Forsyth County for three consecutive years. Other accomplishments inelude serving as Chairman of the Board for Carolina Medicorp, Inc., Chairman of the Associate Board for Triad Bank and Vice Chairman of the Board for the Forsyth Medical Hospi Over the years, Greene has pro­ vided exemplary financial support for Appalachian. He has served on the University Alumni Council and the Advancement Council for the Reich College of Education. He and his wife, Alice, have participated in the alumni travel program and regularly attend alumni rallies. Greene, who was labeled by one friend as "the quintessential moun­ taineer," said he feels it is truly an honor to be selected by the university as a recipient of the Distinguished Alumni Award. Greenelived in Justice Hall during his years at Appalachian, and said that the closeness and unity he felt while living on campus will remain his fondest memory. "Whether in a personal or businessmanner, Appala­ chian has always been right there for me," Greene said.

Elledge, has used his talents and business skills to show his continued support to Appalachian in numerous ways. He is currently the President and Chief Operating Officer of Webb Life Insurance Agency, Inc. in States ville. Elledge said that he is responsible for a contribution of $10,000 from the Webb Insurance Co. for the Brantley Insurance Center, John Walker Col­ lege of Business. Elledge was also instrumental in securing a $25,000 donation from Integon Life Insurance Corp. for the Brantley Center. He served as a Marketing General Agent for Integon before working for the Webb Agency. 'HEN SHADOW JPPETS WON'T DO ED1A SERVICES FFERS YOG...V—i, Verhead Alumni activities, Elledge has been awarded numerous insurance awards. Among them is the Million Dollar Round Table, MDRT Top of Table and the National Sales Achievement Award. While at Integon, he won every award offered by the corpora­ tion. Elledge received his bachelor's degree Magna Cum Laude from Ap­ palachian in Business and Economics in 1970. He then earned his master's degree from Appalachian, also in Business and Economics, two years later. While in school he was a member of Alpha Chi Honorary Society and selected to appear in Who's Who Among Students in American Col­ leges and Universities. Elledge said his fondest memories from Appalachian are of the begin­ nings of spring. "After a bitter cold winter, it was blessed to see spring come to the mountains," said Elledge. "It was a beautiful time of the year and so re­ freshing to see everything come to life again." He served as one of three chairmen in raising $20,000 to endow an Iredell County Alumni Scholarship for stu­ dents attending Appalachian from Iredell Co. Elledge has consistently dedicated his time and hard work to help Appa­ lachian. He is also a member of the student wants to be involved in the elections committee they would have been on senate in the first place." Meagan Jones was present as a concerned student at the meeting and was given the floor twice to speak. She questioned also why the senate still has empty seats. She saw plenty of room for more student in­ volvement. "If (a student) wants to be on the election committee bad enough, all they have to do is get a petition and become a senator," she said. Of the 75 senate seats available, 27 are still vacant Joe Billings, off campus, said the empty seatsin thesenate weredue to a lack of advertising about the va­ cancies and students' lack of want­ ing to know. When questioned about the lack of student awareness of the senate open ings, Adams referred to the busy schedule of the Public Affairs Com­ mittee over the past few weeks in planning homecoming. "It's going to be advertised," Adams said. 'Trying to recruit sena­ tors is something that lasts an entire year." Opposition to the amendment also saw the changes as bringing in the possibility of more bias into the elec­ tion, however, Coggin insisted that the screening process will be ex­ tremely thorough. "Those individuals showing any sign of bias will be weeded out and voted on against," he said. The debate was strong at timesand Vice-president Edith Featherston twice had to call the senate to order.

He is attempting to allocate scarce funds so that health care would be affordable for everyone. Should a need as basic as health care ever be unavailable to someone who needs it? It is morally reprehensible to deny someone with an illness the medical attention they need, simply because of that person's economic status, especially when we have the means and technology to help them. The sad fact is, the medical research industry U S S T A G E D O f P E C A V l does not want to part with their precious profits.

"Alumni are very important to the Appalachian family. We want to know where our alumni are so we can commu­ nicate with than and keep them up to date with the progress of their alma mater. One of the most impor­ tant things alumni can do is keep in touch!" To updateaddresses or to learn more about opportu­ nities offered through theAlumni Affairs Office, alumni may call (704) 262-2038 or may write to: Alumni Affairs, Founders Hall, Appalachian State University, Boone NC 28608. As Appalachian students today, we are fortunate. Alumni from our university have established a stan­ dard of excellence in many professions. We are able to benefit from a solid reputation based on the ambi­ tion, motivation and successful track record of those who called Appalachian home in years past We benefit not only from active involvement by alumni who donate time and money to Appalachian, but also from members of the Appalachian family who are simply outstanding members of their local commu­ nities across the state and across the country. Our future opportunities are enhanced by the presence of Appalachian alumni in positions of ifluence and au­ thority, particularly in North Carolina. As students, we have obligations not only to our­ selves, but to the alumni currently in the professional world, and to all the future Appalachian alumni. The Appalachian family is large—and growing. As students today, we need to be reminded of our connection to the history and future of our school. Alumni, we need your support as we leave Appala­ chian and enter into our careers. We need your support so that Appalachian can continue to offer students the tools, the resources and the educations we need to compete and succeed in our fields. Our world is changing quickly. Schools must con­ tinue tochange to meet the needs of students preparing to enter an evolving job market The Appalachian of today may have little in common with the Appalachian you knew when you were a student—but despite many changes, some things have not changed at Appala­ chian. Our school still strives to provide students with a challenging and rewarding education. The land­ scape, buildings, methods and resourcesof the univer­ sity have adapted to meet student needs. Though Appalachian continues to grow, and to change in appearance, the tradition of the Appalachian family isone that we mustkeepalive. Though students today receive from Appalachian an experience that may be very different from experiences available in the past, all of us—today's students and all alumni— have in common something to be proud of: Appala­ chian. As students graduate and move into careers, and as alumni move up along their career ladders, we must all remember that the better Appalachian is, the better we all are. We thank the alumni who remind us of the history and tradition of Appalachian by returning for Homeconing this weekend. We also thank alumni who continue to support our school through involvement with and contributions to programs which strengthen Appalachian's ability to offer each of us opportunities to grow to our fullest potential. tertainment is a lucrative business BY DARRYL STEVENS SPECIAL TO THE APPALACHIAN Bonds, of baseball's San Francisco Giants, just the first year of a contract that will pay him an °f $7.2 million dollars a year through 1998. eightboxingchampRiddickBoweearned about for outslugging Evander Holyfield lastNovem^will rake in another seven million for each time he ully defends his title (which he's done twice J O'Neal, the Orlando Magic's seven-foot-plus only beginning on the road to stardom and a >n salary.

There are rivers and streams to be deood victims to aid, firemen and women to be paid, and povery-stricken masses to be fed and housed. There are so many ways that wecould better utilize all that money. True? Yes, that is true. The money being paid to some sports stars today is ridiculous, to say the least But just one question before we tear down Madison Square Garden. What about America's other entertainers? What about Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Jackson, and Jodie Foster? They are in the same category (or at least should be) as professional athletes. Many of you reading this right now may disagree, but Charles Barkley and his mates in basketball, football, tennis, baseball, hockey and other sports are entertainers. Same as Bobby Brown, Steven Spielberg, or Kevin Costner. So why do some people insist that athletes do not deserve the money they earn, while these same people do not seem to notice that actors, singers, producers and directors earn up to two and three times as much? Its no problem to hand over $16 for a new CD, or pay $20to see a concert. But to hear that a guy in shorts gets so much money is disturbing somehow. Why? Nothing isdifferent. Micheal Keaton'sBafman took in more than $200 million at the theater, and another $150 million plus via video sales and rentals. That is not even counting the cool action figures and the boom in comic book sales. Goldie Hawn's made a 7-year, $30 million deal with Disney (sounds like a sports contract, huh?). Bruce Willis managed to make in the neighborhood of $15 million for one of his movies. It was not one of the Die Hard's or The Last Boy Scout. It was Bonfire of the Vanities. Justify that paycheck. The truth is, none of these paychecks are justifiable. However, we pay all these people's salaries, so weare too blame. We probably should be using all this money for better purposes. But if millions of people are willing to pay upwards of seven bucks to see Macauley Culkin maim two guys with paint buckets, shotguns, torches, marbles and irons (in two movies!), then there should be no distinction when sports fans pay their money to see their favorite athletes perform. And entertain. THE APPALACHIAN i'::;, ' ' •' • ' ' *- WILLIAM C. BALDWIN » EDITOR LORRIE GANTT • MANAGING EDITOR WILLIAM H.

Their "savviness" and "knowledge of issues" is influenced primarily by selective exposure to television—no­ tably MTV and prime-time Fiction and docudramas. And while X'ers may appear to be iconoclastic, they're impressionable and can be easily persuaded to buy products and services. They will resist persuasion like any­ one else. But key to reaching through to them is being consistent with their mood-attitude expectations and mak­ ing it easier for them to fufill the advertising's call to action.

Nowhereelse haveI seen such majestic mountainscapes, quaint roadside communities, adventurous hiking trails and wooded paths re­ vealing such extraordinary natural beauty. These are aspects of the Ap­ palachians which we all know and appreciate. Yet what some people, unfamiliar to our community, fail to realize is that hand-in-hand with these breath­ taking sights is a rich mountain cul­ ture and a way of life, an understand­ ing of the mountainsand nature itself. We, as members of Watauga County, have fought for years to pre­ serve our rich heritage and keep out heavy commercial development. The vote for the State Park Bond on No­ vember 2 is our chance to show our commitment, to let North Carolina legislators see how deeply we do love our mountains. Aportionofthe$10.5million bond is to be used in the purchase of land for State Parks, and no state tax in­ crease has been planned to pay for the purchase and ensuring that places such as Howard's Knob remain untouched. As members of Watauga County we must make this crucial vote count Voting "yes" for the State Park Bond is the most positive action we can take right now to preserve and protect our mountains and our way of life and ensure that they continue to remain safe for years to come. Barbara Gaddy P.O. Box 13275 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • To the Editor, Hold out for nature! As a student of Appalachian State University and a member of this respectable com­ munity, the beauty of the mountains is a breathtaking and comfortable environment. On November 2, every member of the Watauga County area must turn out to show his or her support and vote "yes" to the State Park Bond Referendum. This con­ cerns the preservation of parks state­ wide, but more specifically, our be­ loved mountain, Howards Knob. Currently, the Referendum is the top priority on the General Assembly's list. The state is willing to donate $10.5 million towards new land ac­ quisition. This referendum must be passed in order to keep the precious privilege of being surrounded by the natural beauty thatour community is blessed with. If approved, the money appro­ priated would allow us to promote preservation while promoting eco­ nomic growth through tourism. The park would provide a peace­ ful, recreational environment for families. Through community sup­ port, there will be a balance between beauty and economic growth as a result of commitment to the preser­ vation of Watauga County's heri­ tage as well as intriguing beauty. I would hate to see what the result would be if we treat our mountains like the beaches are treated. The building of housing developments has resulted in the accumulation of trash and erosion of our precious earth. The coast has been destroyed. Beauty is at stake here, as well. The sun shining down on themoun­ tains, the glimmering dewdrops on a misty morning, the wildflowers and golden leaves... these would all be history if we are robbed of our breath­ taking land. Please join us as we support the fight for beauty, nature, and earth. Save Howards Knob! Brooks Gurley P.O. Box 14637 Blockbuster To the Editor: On Friday October 22, my wife and I attempted to rent the film Damage from Blockbuster Video in Boone. I did not expect to be assaulted by the fetid specters of Jesse Helms and Monkey Trials. This, however, was the case as the nefarious words "Rrated Version" glared backat me from the video box. Blockbuster, we were told by an employee, does not carry un-rated films. Therefore, lucky pa­ trons get to rent only the butchered, R-rated versions of films like Dam­ age and Crimes of Passion in the medieval clime of Blockbuster video. My wife subsequently turned in our rental card to these kindly purveyors of censorship. Our spirits were lifted; however, when we visited The Video Station, a small, locally-owned establishment on Highway 421 justoutside of Boone on the way to Wilkesboro. This busi­ ness subscribes to the radical philoso­ phy that we have the right to view films as their directors had intended. A far cry from the "Edited for Televi­ sion" mentality of Blockbuster! As a result, my wife and I reserved the un­ rated version of DamageJor the fol­ lowing week since it was rented. I would encourage all video consum­ ers who respect freedom of expres­ sion and artistic integrity to eschew Blockbuster, the barbaric Big Brother of video and patronize small, local businesses such as The Video Station.

Met with this unique variety of neglect and apathy, the scene shot forward 'till the momentum ran out, before a near-fatal collapse set in. However in the interim there were others who continued to push ahead - Tom Vio­ lence (guitar rock - led by singer Mike Cook and guitarist Jim Evans), Model Testing, Atomic Gandhi (hardcore group featuring Doug Hatch on bass), Adam's House Cat (including guitarists Chip Taylor and Chad Nance, and drummer Tony Mancuso), Cat Head Biscuit, Allister Tale/Swankees Pyg­ mies (which included Eric Bachman, Rob Martin, Chris Wabich and John Willingham) all came into existence during this era, and helped to keep the local music scene alive. Former members of Swankees Pygmies, Cat Head Biscuit and Adam's House Cat are still active in a number of area projects - Jon Leeds, Wade Rittenberry and Rob Martin formed The Pygmies, Chip Taylor has re­ cently launched a new group, Sticky, and Swankees Pygmies vocalist Eric Bachman cofounded Chapel Hill's Archers of Loaf, who, in the wake of an East Coast tour and lucrative European bookings, are beginning to get national and international attention. The foundation set by these groups pro­ vided ground upon which to rebuild, and Boone is yet again on the brink of a local musical renaissance. Current local favorites MarbleHead, The Pygmies and Junkflower (drummer John Hawkins was a member of another 1987-88 local band, Blatant Disre­ gard) have breathed new life into the local scene, and things again appear to be on a dramatic upswing. Gravel (featuring mem­ bers of The Pyg­ mies, Junkflower and MarbleHead) and Sticky (lead by Adam's House Cat guitarist Chip Tay­ lor, and also includ­ ing Life After Lunch alumnus Alston, Jon Leeds of The Pygmies and John Hawkins of Junkflower) are two of the most re­ cent developments.

Originally a "Cure-meetsREM" type outfit, the sound grew much more complex as the band moved in the direction of Dead Can Dance/Cocteau Twins-style artrock. After another series of lineup shifts Miller reorganized the group and changed the name to And Siamese Urbain - the sound moved towardsa dramatic and di ssonant brand of free-form industrialism. Square Red White - Golden (vocals), Cybulski (guitar), Jones (bass), and Schladensky (drums) began performingorigi­ nal material - a harder guitar style than earlier Boone groups - along with a choice cover or two (TaintedLove). Jones left to rejoin Burn­ ing Giraffe, and Cybulski departed (eventu­ ally forming No Reason Why?), and Golden and Schladensky regrouped (with new bassist Rob Matthews)as Seeing Fields. Schladensky was recruited into The Outer Limits, and Seeing Fieldsdecidedtocallitaday. Matthews subsequently became a founding member of No Reason Why?, and Golden began writing songs for a new project (which eventually evolved into Life After Lunch). No Reason Why?, forming in the fall of 1987, blended a dazzling and eclectic array of influences - garage rock, post-punk noise, funk rhythms and jazz-oriented progressions - into a dark, swirling and relentlessly propul­ sive brand of rock. NRW? was - from thegetgo - a completely unclassifiable group, and their tremendous knowledge and awareness of various styles of music went into what they did. NRW? were an oft-astonishing band arguably the best Boone has produced. The lineup of NRW? was Wendy Sykes (vocals), Ron Keever (drums), Rob Matthews (bass-replaced by Ken Jones and later Jeff Umbarger) and Chris Cybulski (guitar). Their first performance was at a party, in an apart­ ment over Subway, in November 1987, and immediately established 28 them assomething unique-for at least - Winston-Salem (then the center of cal activity, with Lets Active and attracting national attention) and b pair of singles.

BY JODI TALLEY ASSISTANT EDITOR The concept of homecoming is strange, although not totally foreign to me. I do not go home alot. I only go when I am forced to go, like when the residence halls are closed and I have no money to go somewhere else. Well, that just happened to be the case over Fall Break. So homeward I went. Being the type of person I am, I cannot stand to suffer alone, so my boyfriend and I coerced a dear friend of ours to accompany us on the three and a half hour journey. I should say now that my boyfriend and I do not have a good history when it comes to road trips. He claims that I am a backseat driver. I am not! I always sit up front! Of coursegetting there is only half the fun. At least on the ride home I got to rest! As punishment for never coming home, I must visit everyone in ChathamCounty (yes, that's where I'm from, explains a lot does it not?) Grandma's, cousins, friends, old teachers, you name them, I visited them. I t's not that bad of a thing actually. I am a kind of rarity in my family. I am the only female to go to college and be single at the ripe old age of 21! Of course now even my friends are turning on me. One of my big outings during the break was to help my best friend since seventh grade pick out a wed­ ding dress. The sad part is that 1 still see her as she was back then! My God, I feel like Elly May Clampett!! My mother is my only ally. Herphilosophyaboutmarriageis"Start early, that way you can squeeze a couple of extra ones in!" I guess I do miss home every once and awhile. I miss my little sister even though she just hit puberty and can be hard to deal with sometimes And when! do come home • *my mom bakes a pound cake, and if you tasted her pound cake you would not mind traveling half way across the state just to get a piece. Of course visiting my dad and stepmom (or step-monster as she likes to be called) is always a ball! They can party better than any college students I've met! I love them and love to see them, but it is never like I think it will be. You would think that after not seeing me for a couple of months things would be all sentimental and Donna Reedish. Well, only for about five minutes. After that I guess the novelty of my arrival wears off and it is time to remind me exactly why I stay away so long. I know that one day I will drive my children crazy, who, if my mother's curse is fulfilled, will be just like me. 1love my parents and home, but we all need to be away, far away, sometimes. I will say that the weekend was a pleasant one, although I was more tired when I came back than when I left Miraculously, I still have a boyfriend and our good friend, even after he saw how crazy our families are (Of course, that probably explained a lotto him). I am glad I went home, but I am also glad theres four more weeks until Thanksgiving. Of course coming home to an alma mater, is a little different Since I have not yet graduated from a university, I can relate only through high school experience. We all know that feeling of returning to that great vestige of adolescence. It is especially fun to return immediately after graduation. You cannot help but feel superior. But for me, that is when the appeal of reluming lost its appeal. Hanging around too long gets pathetic after a while, like Dennis Miller showing up on Saturday Night Live after he quit Maybe the whole reason that someone invented homecoming was to give those people who really want to, the chance to come back without looking pathetic (of course it could have been just another excuse to party). But who knows, maybe one day I'll oe dragging my husband and kids to an Appalachian homecoming! In 10/26: If You Cant Crank It.

These maintenance tunnels * a series of manholes and drainage ss all over campus that make an easy route for any assailant. Appalachian attacker was not always ful and belligerent, but an ordinary t at Appalachian. One day after his may years ago, he wandered into the under the campus near the creek and plant. After entering, he was quickly ^nted and lost in the chilly darkness, the dark, he accidentally stumbled and to a group of rusty, brittle pipes that hot steam. The decrepit pipes burst T mmediately, and in a blinding flash he Ted from the neck down with severe that destroyed most of his nerves and ®tim almost impervious to pain.

In his immediate contact with people, he was ridiculed, outcast. Embar­ rassed, frightened and ashamed, he quickly found his way back into the tunnels where he could lead a new life without the humiliating contact from others. Now he only emerges late at night under the cover of darkness, enduring the chilly winters, layered in cloth­ ing to hide everything but his pale face. To get even with the society that abandoned him, he often stalks victims late at night in their drunken stupors and clubs them on their heads with his powerful arms. He then quickly takes the victims underground, usually through a manhole, and beats them to relieve his anger. The screams are impossible to track because of the echoes in this underground labyrinth. Rarely do victims regain conscious­ ness to tell where his underground chamber is, but even if they do wake they will soon forget. The Tunnel Man is impossible to catch underground because of his knowledge of the tunnels, and when trapped above ground, needs only to slip into a manhole or drainage ditch. Other than his nightly appearances, he usually roams around Appalachian during the cold months, unnoticed and incognito. This nan does not discriminate by race or sex, so everyone is at risk of being stalked and abducted, the next time you are in the cafete­ ria, closely watch the lone person near you. And the next time you are walking on the mall, take notice of the strange man under the tree. But most importantly, never walk alone at night for you are a sure and favorite victim to a most unwanted experience.

It hasn't been that long since I was running around myself, dressed as a farmer or a fairy. My dad used to lead me around the neighborhood and wait at the end of drive­ ways so I could go to the door myself. He always insisted on checking every piece of candy I had and made sure I didn't raid any of my sister's cherished loot Even though I miss those yearsof plastic Wonder Woman masks and my mother making me wear a jacketover my costume, Halloween is still fun now that I'm grown up. I will never outgrow the fun of dressing up every year, although lately my cos­ tumes have become much more "last minute." As a child, I had already decided on what I would wear months before Hal­ loween arrived. This year I still have no clue as to the type of costume I'll wear. What does that tell you? One advantage of being an adult during Halloween is the great tradition of party­ ing. Of course there were parties as chil­ dren, but Mom and Dad were ever-present with cameras and stupid games. These days they would be horrified if they knew how you really ruined your costume! Another advantage of being older at Hal­ loween is the improved experience of go­ ing through haunted houses. Whenever my parents look me through them when I was younger, I would startcrying and cling to their legs. To me, there was no rational reason why these people should be dressed up as monsters killing each other. One year, a vampire scared me so badly he ended up pulling a flashlightoutof his robe so my parents could find the way out Although going through haunted houses still isn't my favorite Halloween pastime, I can at least make it through them now without crying. The freedom we now have during Hal­ loween is unprecedented. If I want to go running around the neighborhood dressed as a ghost, Dad isn't there to make me slow down and hold his hand. 1 can stuff as much candy in my mouth that can possibly fit and don't have to share any with my sister. I can even (gasp!) walk around without a jacket Even though some of the fun of Hallow­ een was lost when we grew up, there are still things we can always enjoy. I can testify that I have seen the Charlie Brown "Great Pumpkin" special every year it's been on. Now, however, we can see such childhood taboos as The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. I suppose I'll torment my children with the same things my parents tormented me with on their own childhood Halloweens. Now that 1 think about it, I guess Hallow­ een wouldn't have been the same if I had been in charge as a child. Regardless, nothing major has been lost by growing up—we can still be spooky no matter what age we are. u m m The National Olk^e Magazine desired. Remove and discard spice bag.

It's appealing to think of returning toBoone to see old friends and to realize how much those undergraduate years really are missed. The alumni affairs office, directed by Bar­ bara Burgin,organizes activities for and keeps track of people who have graduated from Appalachian. According toBurgin, they "pro­ mote and plan programs for the Appalachian family." in graduates' home states, offering local "op­ portunities for socializing and service," accord­ ing to Burgin. Alumni affairs offers several benefits to gradu­ ates. Watches, rings, license plates, and lamps with the Appalachian logo are available for purchase. An alumni tour program is also avail­ able. "The tours give people a common bond," said Burgin. "We provide a quality trip for an economical price." Eighty people are currently signed up for an Alaska tour. Burgin hopes that alumni will become increasingly supportive and loyal to their Alma Mater. She likes to see young alumni "come back to have a good time....It's not meaningful if there's no one here you recognize," she said. A Young Alumni Day was sponsored a few weeks ago to help recent graduates celebrate their new "alumni status." "The location draws back alumni just as it drewthemhereasstudents,"Burginsaid. 'They enjoy seeing the campus, sharing times, and reminiscing." This year, alumni will be celebrating Home­ coming with a golf tournament, the annual Homecoming parade, an awards social and din­ ner, and a dance. Celebrations will also con­ tinue after the football gameagainst UT-Chatta­ nooga. A high percentage of Appalachian's alumni are from Mecklenburg County. Forsyth, Watauga, Guilford, Wake, and Catawba coun­ ties are also highly represented. Twenty per­ cent of alumni are married to other alumni. "If people received a good education,found a good job, were active as students, and left with a sense of purpose, usually they want to give something back," said Burgin. The university is state assisted, meaning that money from the state supports only the school s basic needs. Additional funds for programs and benefits largely come from donations by alumni. The alumni program is attempting to have chapters in several other counties and states. Dr. Barbara Burgin (photo by John The chapters would sponsor alumni activities Heisel) Talbert, "came forth with the idea of having the first alumni volunteer project," according to Barbara Burgin, Director of Alumni Af- Alumni will soon have a new "home in the near future, a home they can come back to year after year. The new McKinney Alumni Center, which will be dedicated in Spring, 1995, will soon be a place where alumni can come to and relax when they arrive in Boone. It will be located at the intersection of High­ way 321 and Rivers Street (the old McDonald's location). A stroke of luck made the ideal property available. After two years of searching forasite, the McDonald'sCorporation gave Appalachian the property. It was soon after the site was established that two alumni, Bradley Thompson and Robin "It wasour original plan to just renovate the building," said Burgin. However, with the help of alumni donations, an entirely new building will be built. A major donation was made by Sam and Virginia McKinney, who are considered by Burgin to be the epitome of any school's alumni." The new center will carry the McKinney's name. The Alumni Center will have 7,200 square feet and will house a reception area and great room. Besides being available for gatherings and conferences, it will also have Alumni Affairs offices and Appalachian Foundation offices. According to Burgin, the building will have a kitchen, lobby, fireplace, and wui ijat u.

This well could be a fight for who takes last in the conference. ' nhessee-Chattanooga brings a 1-3-0 ||rn Conference record (3-4-0 overall) ichian' s Homecoming game, while hian posts a 1-4-0 mark in the conferid is 0-3-0 against non-conference Both teams are coming off embarrasss last week. the Mountaineers were drubbed 35hall, the Moccasins fell 41-10 at the 's [of Western Carolina. Appalachian Head Coach Jerry Moore hopes that the team will get off to a fast start this weekend. "We need to finish this season right, end the year on a good note and build some momentum over the final three games," Moore said. "That starts with this week's game with Tennessee-Chattanooga." The overall series between the two teams is knotted at eight apiece. The Mountaineers got the better of the match-up last year pre­ vailing 37-17 in Chattanooga on Halloween Day. In fact, Appalachian has beaten the Mocs in their last four meetings and has won seven of the last eight. Tennessee-Chattanooga holds the record for the most points against a Mountaineer football team. In their second meeting, in 1978, the Mocs trounced Appalachian 72-14 in Chattanooga. They not only hold the most points at 72, but the 58-point margin of victory is also a Mountaineer record. Opposite the field from Moore will be rookie Head Coach Tommy West, who will try to put a loss in Moore's column against his Mocca­ sins. Moore feels that Tennessee-Chattanooga has done well this year considering they have a new coach. "Tennessee-Chattanooga has made some tremendous strides in the first year under a new coaching staff," Moore said. "Coach West and his staff have done a good job, and we know they will have their players prepared for us." One factor that may play into the game may be some injuries to some Appalachian players. Most notably, running back Chip Hooks. Luck­ ily, he is still listed as probable for Saturday's game. Hooks has amassed 701 yards on the ground this season. Moore hopes his team can pick up a win this weekend and maybe get on a roll to sal­ vage their season. "We just have to continue to work hard, to improve and I really think that we have done thateach week; we just haven't won," Moore said. The Mountaineers have a chance to play spoiler if they can get on line and upset Western Carolina in two weeks. The Cata­ mounts are in the chase for the Southern Conference title, and the Mountaineers would love to ruin their chances. But, this weekend's game comes firstMoore is optimistic about the rest of the season and, more importantly, the game this weekend. "It's Homecoming this week and that's a special time for our players, especially our seniors," Moore said. "We have three games to play and two are at home, so we're looking forward togetting this turned back around in the right direction ' with another strong performance next year. All of the individual honors, however, do not quell Hooks's desire to win. "This has been a really tough season for me and everyone else on this team," Hooks said. "We're just not used to losing around here." Hooks attributes this year's struggles toall aspects of the team's play. "We're just making a few mistakes here and a few there and it's costing us," Hooks said. "For instance, our offense has trouble moving the ball, then we get off a bad punt which puts our defense in a hole. It's sort of a domino effect." The Mountaineer's struggles do not dam­ age head coach Jerry Moore's assessment of his star tailback. "Chip is a really good football player. He has great quickness and he's a really tough runner," Moore said. Moore also spoke of Hooks's role on the team. "Chip is not a real vocal guy, not a big talker, but that's not what the team needs from him," Moore said. "He'sjustaneaikid.awholesome kid, who just happens to be a great running back." Hooks has been slowed lately by a slight strain of the right knee which he suffered during last Saturday's game against Marshall. The injury has kept him from practicing Mon­ day and Tuesday, but head athletic trainer Andy Massey said Hooks was scheduled to practice Wednesday. He should be able to play in Saturday's Homecoming game. Playing with pain is nothing new for Hooks, who played most of last season with bruised ribs. Coach Moore says this most recent in­ jury, however, is a bit different "It's hard to breathe when you have bruised ribs, much less run; but Chip played lough through it last year," Moore said. "But when a running back has a sore knee, he can'l run and cut and move like he should. Hopefully, our trainers will have him ready for this weekend." Hooks tries to remain optimistic about the rest of the season. "I just hope we can win the rest of our games for theseniors who have never been through a season like this," Hooks said. "Losing a blowout is bad, but losing all these close games is much worse. We just have to keep our poise and hope for the best. We're playing for pride now."

Well, there is definitely a team, and they have been gearing up for their spring season. This semester the team has been playing various schools to get a feel for how their competition will be when the real season starts. This "preseason" has been an important test for the team, especially since they have many new players on the roster. The team participates in the National Club Lacrosse League, which features many teams in the region. Although the team only posts a 1 -4 record.Captain Jamie "Spider" Hider feels that the team has made a lot of progress. "We have some experience on the team, but on the other hand, half of the players have never played," Hider said."But we have gotten 300 percent better since our first practice." This past weekend the team hosted two teams at the upper field behind Kidd Brewer Sta­ dium. On Saturday, they faced UNCWilmington and played the 49ers of UNCCharlotte on Sunday. The Mountaineers were defeated by Wilmington, but had an impressive showing by attacker "Matty" Chrien. He was ASU's main offensive threat, registering a hat trick against the Seahawks. Chrien's efforts were to no avail as Wilmington handed them their third loss, 7-4. "Last weekend was a good chance for all of the players to get better acquainted," said Chrien, who has missed the last couple of games due to a leg injury. "Plus, we did well considering the circumstances. We have many new players, we had a lot of injuries, and, to top it off, we were trying out a new defense." On Sunday, the Apps were unable to triumph again, falling 8-2 to UNC-Char­ lotte. Picking up the goals for the Moun­ taineers were Hider and Andy "Ratboy" Martin, both oulmaneuvering pesky 49er defenders. Once again, the same sentiments were expressed by Hider. "We're still teaming how to play with each other," Hider said. "Since there is a lack of experience on the team, we have to mix those players in so they can gain some experience." The team may be having a rough pre­ season, but you can't tell by the players' attitudes. They seem to be very optimistic and are ready for the spring. "We're definitely coming together as a team," Chrien said. Hider, the team captain, has a lot on his hands trying to manage the team, since he basically has to call upon the veteran play­ ers to help coach and show the rookie players the ropes. "You can either play a quick, graceful, passing game, or a brutal, hard-hitting game," Hider said. "I tend to believe that you have to combine both." The lacrosse team's next game is on Nov. 13 and will be a rematch with UNCCharloue. The team will travel to Char­ lotte to try and get revenge on the 49ers.

EDITOR University of TennesseeChattanooga is favored to win the 1993-94 Southern Conference men's basketball championship, according to a preseason poll of the league's head coaches released Wednesday. The poll was announced in con­ junction with the conference's annual basketball tip-off at the Asheville Civic Center. The Moccasins have either won or shared the conference regular-season championship the past three years. UT-Chattanooga won the title out­ right last season with a 16-2 confer­ ence record and also won the league tournament titlefor the first time since 1988. UT-Chattanooga returns two start­ ers and three of its top four scorers off last season's team that finished 26-7 overall. The top returnees are senior all-conference guard/forward Gary Robb (14.2 ppg.), senior guard Chad Copeland (13.3 ppg.) and junior for­ ward Brandon Bom (11.9 ppg.). UT-Chattanooga finished with 94 points in the coaches' balloting and garnered six first-place votes. The Moccasins barely edged rival East Tennessee, which had 92.5 points and 3.5 first-place votes. Marshall was third with 76.5 points, followed by Georgia Southern (65), Davidson and Furman (56 each), Appalachian State (46), The Citadel (29), Western Carolina (20) and VMI (15). East Tennessee will be led this sea­ son by all-conference senior forward Trazel Silvers. The Buccaneers, who have represented the conference in four of the last five NCM Tourna­ ments, will be counting heavily on junior backcourt transfers Geoff Herman and Robert Doggett Herman comes to East Tennessee from Austin Peay and Doggett from Wake Forest. Below is a complete breakdown of the voting in the Coaches poll. COMPILED BY DAVID KITTRELL ASST.

OCTOBER 26-27* 1993 APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE • NC 28608 WEEKDAY EDITION Chancellor and state leaders push for Nov. 2 bond BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR With only a week left before the state votes on a $740 million bond package, Appala­ chian Chancellor Francis Borkowski, State Treasurer Harlan Boyles and former N.C. Senator James Broyhill held a press confer­ ence to gather support for the bond, focusing on the $23.8 million that Appalachian would receive. "It is a very, very critical vote," said Borkowski. "It is a step that can position N.C. in a most advantageous way." The package contains four public facility bonds: $310million in university improvement bonds, $250 million in community college bonds, $145 million in clean water bonds and $35 million in state parks bonds. Of the university improvement bonds, Appa­ lachian would receive $23.8 million for two buildings. Approximately $8.8 million would go for an academic support services building, which would house services such as admis­ sions, financial aid and residence life, and $15 million would go for the first phase of a math/ science complex. The academic support ser­ vices building would be built on Rivers Street where the stone and red brick buildings are currently located. A location for the math/ science complex has not been decided. Borkowski says the buildings are needed to continue Appalachian's growth and the qual­ ity of services. "We are constrained, currently, by space," said Borkowski. "[If the bond does not pass] it could have a disastrous effect on the expan­ sion of programs andan adverse effect on." Borkowski said he could see larger class sizes and, possibly, enrollment caps if the bond fails. Boyles and Broyhill spoke about the eco­ nomic impact of the bond. Boyles said that state taxesshould not have to be raised to meet bond payments and that if the bonds are wisely used, they will bring money into the state. "If taken all together, [the bonds] will cre­ ate jobs, improve worker skills,enhance edu­ cation and maintain the quality of life," said Boyles. If the bonds pass, supporters are estimating that more than 900 jobs would be created in Watauga County, 70 of which would be per­ manent jobs. Caldwell Community College will build a $2.3 million classroom/laboratory building on its Watauga campus if the bond passes, creating approximately 27 new full-time fac­ ulty positions.

Appalachian ranked eleventh among Southern regional universities but what does the ranking mean? 'The rankings are an indication of roughly where an institution falls among its competi­ tion," said Mark Levinc, assistant vice chan­ cellor for public affairs at Appalachian. "But the process is not a scientific one. It reflects a number of criteria, but the rankings in and of themselves don't indicate that a school is better than one that is not on the list" The criteria for the U.S. News university rankings include student selectivity, faculty quality, financial resources, academic repu­ ^DS International, Inc. is now accepting plications for the 1994-95 Congress^*-*ndestag Youth Exchange Program for , ^*ung Professionals, to study and work in -imany for one year.

NEWS DEPARTMENT »ITOR: DAWN MCGUIRE ^NSSISTANT EDITOR: ~TAFF WRITERS: AMY BEACH DANE PERRY ROBERT ROBERTSON those who are asked to rank institutions are often given no real guidelines or criteria to do »» so. "Rankings may be of modest help as a starting point in learning about a particular university," said Frank, "but they simply can­ not capture the complex mix of qualities that make each college or university unique." Frank advises parents and students to ask the following questions: "Is location impor­ tant? Does the size of the student body make a difference? Iscost a critical factor? What are the institution's academic focus and strengths?" Furthermore, academic rankings and ob­ jective data which determines the"quality" of students accepted at a particular college can be distorted by the ranking process itself, according to Frank. Investigator speaks on environmental crimes BY CATHERINE HOUSE REPORTER TROGRAM OFFERED TO STUDY IN GERMANY tation and student satisfaction according to "The Basis for U.S. News University Rankings." States often drop out of the rankings not because of student satisfaction or poor academ­ ics but because of a state's poor economy, according to Levine. "One of the criteria U.S. News and World Report looks at is the amount of money being spent per student. A school can be outstanding but because of a bad state economy can fall out of the rankings." James Madison University ranked third in academic reputation among Southern regional schools, yet due to its financial resources rank­ ing of 101, they ranked 13 overall. Dr. R. Frank, dean of the business school at Emory University in Atlanta, finds two basic flaws with rankings: "The methods used to rank schools or interpret the survey data collected from schools or corporations are frequently based on responses from a single source, and Tom Burleson, an environmental investi­ gator, spoke on "Environmental Crimes in North Carolina," in a lecture held by the geology department on Oct. 21. Burleson said the environmental aspect of crime is very difficult and complex. All envi­ ronmental crimes have criminal penalties, many with substantial consequences that could put companies out of business. Penal­ ties range from fines for clean up, to jail. Crimes include the disposing of hazardous wastes in the wrong ways, lying during an inspection and"Pollution for Profit." "Pollu­ tion for Profit" means that a company pur­ posely does not comply with the law in order to make more money. For example, a com­ pany may get rid of its wastes by pouring them down the sewer instead of paying some­ one to properly dispose of the waste. Investigative techniques for such crimes include the use of the Federal Grand Jury, search warrants and subpoenas. "The FBI plays hardball; they don't fool around," said Burleson. Scientific re­ searchers and technical experts are also brought in to help on investigations. Burleson showed some slides and a video tape that showed recent criminal investiga­ tions of crimes going on right here in North Carolina. The tapes demonstrated how the FBI caught companies in criminal acts, such as willfully violating seweracts and the clean water act. Burleson said that he feels it is important that the community should know what is going on, and it is his job to protect the community. Thus, one of the penalties that goes along with a company getting caught is that the company usually has to display a full-page ad in the newspaper admitting and apologizing for its crime. Burleson is the only FBI agent in North Carolina who investigates environmental crimes. The FBI became formally involved in such crimes in 1986 because theEnvironmen­ tal Protection Agency was not aggressive enough. In fact there is no federal EPA pres­ ence in North Carolina. Burleson's job consists of enforcing such acts as the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act On a broader sense he is responsible for protecting water and air from becoming con­ taminated. He is also a teacher for the FBI and EPA, as well as other organizations. Career day highlights opportunities abroad BY URSULA OLSON REPORTER The Office of International Studies spon­ sored the Third Annual International Career Day on Oct 21, offering information and opportunities for graduates to work abroad. Dr. Betty Bond, chaitpcrson of the event's planning committee, says the purpose of this event isto make Appalachian students realize that they have good people skills marketable in international situations regardless of their majors.

McGarry teaches the ESL certification in Appalachian's Foreign Language Department It is an 18 hour certification counting as a minor and is not major-specific. Two sessions followed the keynote, ad­ dressing topicson career opportunities in Sci­ ence, Business, Education and Small Busi­ ness. News D.C. Mayor Requests National Guard Help Against Crime Washington, D.C. mayor Sharon Kelly made a formal request over the weekend to have National Guard troops dispersed in the nation's capital in an effort to fight crime. The request is part of a sixteen-point plan by Kelly to "keep the neighborhoods clean and rid them of thugs and criminals." The plan is to use 100-200Guard mem­ bers for up to four months to patrol and survey high-crime areas. Critics of the plan want Washington to beef up its police force. Currently there are 300 vacancies on the force with legis­ lation pending to add 300 more. President Clinton and Attorney Gen­ eral Janet Reno are scheduled to meet later this week to discuss the proposal. One-Time Soviet Republic Agrees to U.S. Proposal Kazakhstan president Nursultan Nazaibayeu pledged his support for the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty over the weekend. He has agreed to renounce its nuclear weaponry in exchange for in­ creased U.S. economic aid. The Kazakh president also asked for a meeting with President Clinton later this year. The announcement came just as Secre­ tary of State Warren Christopher headed to the Ukraine to meet with its president Leonid Kravchukv todiscuss the future of his country's nuclear stockpile. The Ukraine ranks just behind the United States andRussiaasanuclearpower. Kravchukv has repeatedly promised to dismantle the almost 2000 nuclear warheads his coun­ try inherited from the Soviet Union but has yet to honor his pledge.

I would like to see some consistency in their argument For example, they could be more active in helping to prevent the homeless children from sleeping on the streets, or perhaps they could help intervene in child abuse cases where innocent kidsare tortured and maimed. I absolutely cannot understand the logic in their reasoning when they kill a doctor to prevent an abortion! That seems to me to be as far from pro-life as one can get An unwanted pregnancy does not miraculously become a wanted child or a responsibility that will be handled responsibly. The moral crusade should help the children who really need it rather than simply killing people that do not agree with them. Choice is a fundamental right of humankind, in this country, and women will continue to fight to attain equal respect for their rights. Face it people, women will give themselves abortions whether it is legal in the courts or not. It has been done for centuries and will continue, However, in today's technological society, there is no need to subject anyone to the coat hanger or knitting needle treatment when safer techniques exist. The analogy used by pro-life activists is simply not relevant. They equate killing a fetus with killing a fully grown adult male or mutilating a female. What is mutilating is the fact that women must perform abortions on themselves without training or medical care. Freedoms are limited by legality, but abortion should not be a group decision because it is ultimately a personal decision that only the woman can make. Roe vs. Wade only permits an abortion under any circumstances during the first trimester of pregnancy. After this initial twelve week period is over, state governments can impose certain restrictions. No state allows legal, on demand abortions during the entire nine month pregnancy period and in fact only 20% of all abortions take place after the first trimester. Gender selection is a very sticky issue. The anti-choice groups make a big deal about it and will continue to harp on this point. I disagree with this absurd concept, because the majority of people out there that want to have a child would be perfectly satisfied with a normal, healthy child, regardless of his or her eye color. There will always be exceptions in any situation, and this one is no different, Mr. Kerson also stated that abortions are performed for emotional and economic reasons. Teenage mothers will be bankrupt in an average of five years in this country. So abortion is a much more cost effective solution costing $250.00 once as compared to thousands of dollars for 18 years. Underprivileged women get trapped into a life of poverty, because they cannot afford the child and cannot get an abortion. This is a lose/lose situation. Emotionally speaking, just because a woman can physically produce a baby, does not mean that she is mentally capable of raising a child or supporting a family. In conclusion, Mr. Kerson stated that "abortions are not morally or ethically supportable". But, who asked you Mr. Kerson? I am writing in response to an article which appeared on the October 21 issue of The Appalachian, written by John Kerson. I would like to ask Mr. Kerson when he was given the almighty authority to dictate another person's rights. A fetus is not a person, but a woman is! Her rights do and must come first, without regard of outside opinion. Prochoice activists do not advocate abortion. No one wants to see another person have an abortion. However, we realize that no one can make that choice except for the woman, She has her own mind, and must make the decision without outside opinion. The religious right do not have the answer, and neither does Mr. Kerson. The woman must make the decision to have an abortion based on her own values,sensibilitiy.andconscience.Onlythewoman, her doctor, and God can work together to resolve this dilemma. Anti-abortion activists often picketclinics where abortions are performed, but you will not see pro-choice activists picketing the maternity ward. The anti-choice group does not respect the woman's freedom of choice. A prime example is "operation rescue", where any action is permissible if it can help prevent an abortion from taking place. However, where are these people when that baby is sick, or hungry, or needs clothing, or medical attention? Come Hell or high water, antichoice activists will prevent an abortion, but then they hit the road. Beyond this initial response, the responsibility is Stephanie Dingman no longer theirs, and I argue that it was never their Box 14948 "Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today." -Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Beavis and Butthead: reality check America has found its latest popular obses­ sion in the form of two cartoon metalheads named Beavis and Butthead. The ascent of this show isnothing new orsuprising, only the latest in aseries of cultural preoccupations with a silly example of entertainment media. At the moment, it is difficult to walk down the street without hearing Beavis and Butthead impressions (huh huh huh, you bumwipe);how­ ever one does not have to go that far back to remember hordes of Ren and Stimpy imitators wailing "you eediot!" at the drop of the prover­ bial hat. Before that it was The Simpsons. Before that, Garbage Pail Kids. Why do we popularize these creations, which, admittedly, can be extremely humorous, but also make a point of their stupidity and crudity, to such an extent? Perhaps this is all part of a subconcious back­ lash against the increasingly overbearing ad­ vent of political correctness. All the characters in these presentations are obnoxious, disgust­ ing, rebellious, and overall, very politically incorrect. It could be that Americans, having to stifle their baser comments and impulses, are living vicariously through Beavis and Butthead. Right now, Howard Stem (the outrageous radio shock-jock and creator of the super-hero parody character, "Buttman") claims one of the best selling books of all time, his caustic "Pri­ vate Parts". If this many people are actually taking the time to read Stem's abrasive humor, it must surely symbolize that there is a need being fulfilled by all this stupidity. However, the natural tendency of our culture seems to be to take a humorous or entertaining medium and run the joke straight intothe ground. There are those who actually seem to pattern their lives after Beavis and Butthead, complete with an ongoing impersonation and , of course, plenty of the show's merchandise on hand. It is time for our society to take a reality check. Beavis and Butthead, and other such shows are an entertaining and humorous diver­ sion, but that is all they are, a diversion. They certainly are not worth the energy people put into them, whether through adulation or com­ plaining about them. Watch the show, laugh, have fun. Just be sure to distinguish cartoon from reality, and realize that these characters are supposed to be stupid, not role models, or standards for our society. Beavis and Butthead is a funny show, but it shouldn't start a cultural revolution.

"The kids don't usually gel to see the outside—this is their world," said Nate Ferkovich, a fraternity member. "Hopefully the trip will motivate them todo other things." The six boys, each paired with a fraternity member, spent time touring the Washington Monument, the Library of Congress, the Science and Space Museum, and the zoo. They also were able to ride the Metro around the city. Ferkovich believes that, although it was important for the boys to see the city, it was even more important for them to "be around positive African American role models." Being the fraternity with strong values and the highest grade point average on campus. Alpha Phi Alpha could be nothing but a good influ­ ence on the boys. The boys were chosen for the trip on a "first come, first served" basis. Many of their par­ ents were at first skeptical on sending their sons to Washington, but Ferkovich made an effort to visit them directly and explain the fraternity's motives. "It was interesting to see the different ways that the group developed," said Ferkovich, who is a social work major. "At first we didn't know the kids, but then we got into 'male bonding.' We felt like we were really making a difference." Although this was the first year the boys were taken to Washington, Ferkovich hopes that more trips will follow. The fraternity raised the money themselves by wash­ ing cars and getting money from spon­ sors. Most of the sponsors were Appa­ lachian staff mem­ bers and organiza­ tions on campus. The parents of the boys also paid a small fee to help with the ex­ penses. Alpha Phi Alpha plans to keep in touch with the boys they took to Washington. "I think it was very beneficial," said Ferkovich. "For both the kids and the The Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity recently took six kids to Washingbrothers." ton, DC for sightseeing and "bonding." Staying involved: Worth the money? BY BARBARA DONDIEGO REPORTER Money, money, money. This seems to be the main concern for students at Appala­ chian. Students are bombarded with bills for university fees, book costs, tuition, food, lodging, parking registration, the list goes on. The above costs are only the required amounts a student pays. It is no wonder that many students are concerned with the cost of Appalachian's 200 extracurricular clubs. Most people be­ lieve that the most expensive activities on campus are the Greek organizations. I started to wonder about this assumption. If the fraternities and sororities of Appala­ chian are so expensive, then why do people belong to them? I also questioned their cost in comparison with the time spent with the organization as well as the personal satisfac­ tion received from the clubs. I initiated a small-scale survey of a few of the non-greek clubs on campus and the greek organizations. The results were a bit surpris­ ing. Many of the activities on campus, such as the sports teams, the debate team, the band, the student government, and the student ambassa­ dors are funded by the university through student fees, state funding, and alumni contri­ butions received by the school. The only organizations not funded by the school are the greek and religious organizations. I continued to seek the answer to my previ­ ous question regarding the purpose of the greek clubs. What I discovered was that being a member of a fraternity or a sorority was relatively inexpensive, if one takes into con­ sideration the amount of time required by the organization as well as the events sponsored by the clubs. Of the sorority and fraternity members I questioned, the amount of time they each spent per month with their club ranged from 30 to 360 hours per month. The cost of the clubs varied from $150 to $230 per semester. The average number of hours per month (80) di­ vided by the average cost per month ($55); amounts to roughly $1.45 an hour or less depending on how much time one wishes to put into his or hci organization. In the survey I also requested that each participant tell me why they believed in their organization. The answers from the sororities and fraternities were the most passionate, compared to one athlete's reply, "because I' m on a scholarship." Most of the students agreed that they be­ longed to their club because it fit their ideals, lifestyle, and interests. Student Ambassador Kara Morch said,"Because of our love for and belief in Appalachian we do not hesitate to put Ambassador events and duties at the top of our priority list." Appalachian cheerleader Carisa Byrd said, "We are representatives of ASU at home as well as on other college campuses." The Greek members all mentioned friend­ ship and a home as reasons for their support of their organizations. A member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, Rob Robinson, states, "It (the fraternity) gives a person a sense of belonging and friendship." A member of Delta Chi fraternity, Scott Silver, said,"With the brotherhood of Delia Chi 1 know that I have 40-50 guys I can count on for anything and they can count on me as well." Lisa Calloway, a senior in Phi Mu sorority, said, "A lot of people think Greek organizations are so expensive, but they don't understand all the benefits that go along with belonging to one." Greek organizations are the key to aid some students in unlocking the opportunities presented in a college atmosphere. None of the participants claimed that their club was the answer to all problems, but they all seemed to have found the groups which fit them best. All of the members of the 10 clubs who I questioned were sure that the time and money spent on their organization was definitely not wasted. Whether it is $2 or'$200, the students seemed to be content with their investments. KRISTINE FORR^ AMY L.iw | RA\T - W Move c BV N&IAS«.

Families pay for the cost of the home over a fixed time period. The monthly payments are placed into a fund to aid in building more homes.

This work, known as "sweatequity," will becounted ciding who is chosen is important," said Little, president of the campus chapter. "The pro­ gram is not for the homeless.

"The unique thing about Habitat is that trained supervisors are on site to work with people who have no experience building houses," said Little. "The major focus of In mid-September, a campus chapter for Habitat for Humanity was created at Appala­ chian.

Beating ^JNC player isa major accomplishment" past weekend, the team sojourned to Columbia, South Carolina to compete in another tough four-day tournament. For the most part, the competition was compiled of the same teams from the Chapel Hill tournament. Appalachian'sPedro Lopez, the #5 player, pulled out a tough win, and made it to the quarterfinals where he was finally stopped. Lopez teamed up with Zach Sharpe to play doubles, and the pair advanced two rounds before falling to Furman. The duo of Plautz and Manuel Zapata also won a doubles match, pulling out a win over a team from N.C. State. Kernodle was excited that the team was able to play in the tournaments, even though wins were hard to come by. 'Tournaments like these help us to be­ come tournament-tough," he said. "It also lets the players see what some of the other top players look like." Bill Plautz agreed with his coach. "We did well considering the teams there," Plautz said. "When we play the teams in our conference, we will be better prepared." Next weekend, the team travels again to participate in their last competition of the fall, an eight-team Invitational Tournament at Wofford. Kemodle said that the Wofford competi­ tion will be weaker than the previous two tournaments. He hoped that playing against the stronger competition would help the team this coming weekend. "Hopefully, our experiences will carry over to our last tournament," Kernodle said. Salaries BY PATRICK SALEEBY REPORTER Okay readers - are you prepared? Today, I am going to tackle a controversial sports issue. Yes, I, Patrick Saleeby, am going to talk about one of the fundamental problems of professional sports. This is a big under­ taking for me, so I hope you'll bear with me. Let me get this part out of the way - yes, yes, yes. I agree. Pro athletes get paid entirely too much. No one should get paid millions of dollars to play agame. There are too many people out there busting their butts at more important jobs and getting paid way less. So yes,I agree with all of you out there who get sick when someone like the Hor­ nets' Larry Johnson signs an $84 million deal for twelve years. I know, I know - it's not fair. If you think I'm leading up to a defense of these big-time contracts through my obvious sarcasm, you're wrong. What I want to discuss is this matter - who should we get mad at? Well, I don't think we should hold the players responsible. We can get upset since they are the ones on the receiving end of the money, but I don't think its fair to take it out on them entirely. Of course, there are those egotistical athletes who will hold out for an amount of money that is outrageous. When I say outrageous, I mean undeserving. For instance, let's take the New Jersey Nets' Derrick Coleman. He wants more than Larry Johnson got paid. Okay, you all know The Mountaineers dropped another game Saturday against the Marshall Thundering that I'm a big Hornets fan, but I'm not Herd, (photo by Paul Lampe) defending Larry. Coleman does not deserve to be paid as much as Larry because he is not as good. Coleman is a great player, but he has been inconsistent, pitched temper tan­ trums, and he's not (listen closely.

The goal is 100 nt consensual sex. policy states that a person must get permission from their partner to enin any sexual activity.

Alcohol hinging common on campuses BY KELLIE WELBORN REPORTER Alcohol Awareness week is being observed at Appalachian this week and student groups and organizations are trying to get the mes­ sage out that alcohol can be dangerous. Wednesday afternoon, members of the Campus Resident Student Association and the Student Government Association held an alcohol / breathalizer experiment. Members of the two groups drank beer and tested their blood alcohol content. The groups hope to increase awareness that alcohol can effect your abilities. For the over 12 million college students in the United States, the annual consumption of alcoholic beverages totals well over 430 mil­ lion gallons (3,500 Olympic-sized pools). Alcohol, the most widely used drug on college campuses, is a growing problem, and its nature, scope and consequences are slowly being brought into the spotlight. Eighty-six percent of students have con­ sumed alcohol within the last year, and 45 percent use it once a week or more. Dale Kirkley, Coordinator of the Sub­ stance Abuse Center in Appalachian's Wellness Center, warns, "If you do it long enough you will become addicted. Many students are on their way to becoming alco­ holics." Through outreach education, Kirkley helps those on campus who feel that they have a problem with alcohol abuse, or just want some information. Support groups are also offered through the Wellness Center for those effected by alcoholism. "When more than 40 percent of college students report recent binge drinking, we cannot pretend that alcohol abuse is just an isolated event," said Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley. "The fact is, far too many students are jeopardizing their health and safety, as well as the safety of others." In a study of 1989 to 1991, 56,361 students were surveyed on 78 campuses about their drinking habits. The study, titled "Alcohol and Drugs on American College Campuses: Use, Consequences, and Perceptions of the Campus Environment," found that 42 percent of college students questioned had consumed five or more drinks in one sitting, defined by the study as binge drinking, in the two weeks prior to the survey. Since binge drinking "is most related to violence, sexual assaults, and drunk driving on college campuses," it should be a key concern, said the study. College students were found on average to consume 5.11 drinks per week. While 7.8 percent of students surveyed admitted drinking an average of 16 or more drinks in one week. Underage college drinkers, (86 percent of students), drink more, and suffer more black­ outs, hangovers and problems with their drink­ ing than drinkers of legal age. They are also twice as likely to have been victims of sexual assault, to have taken sexual advantage of oth­ ers, or to have taken part in violent or destruc­ tive acts. Throughout the nation, more than 43 percent of all 16 to 20-year-old deaths result from motor vehicle crashes, and almost half (48.4 percent) were alcohol related. Close to 29 percent of all fatally injured 15 to 20-year-old drivers were intoxicated with a blood alcohol level of.10 or higher, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Other findings concluded that 28 percent of male students consumed 10 or more drinks a week, compared to only 12 percent of their female counterparts. One third of students surveyed admitted that they had been driving while intoxicated at least once in the yearprior tothe survey, but less than two percent had been stopped by police. Academic performance was shown to be hindered by high alcoholic consumption. Those students with a GPA of D or F consumed an average of 11 drinks per week, while those who earned A's averaged only three. The smaller the school, the higher the rate of alcohol consumption.

Phrases such as "it is an abomination unto the Lord" and "you're hellhound" were sprayed across the pro-homosexual work in bright red paint. This was no surprise to Gary Hartz, the advisor to B-GLAD, Appalachian's only or­ ganized gay and lesbian club. "You see all kinds of subtle things. You can look in the bathrooms around campus and see graffiti that puts down gays," said Hartz. Hartz, who is heterosexual, said that he is all for peopleexpressing theiropinions, but he thought it was unfortunate that the anti-homo­ sexual graffiti seemed to block out the progay message by covering it up. Hartz said that isolated incidents, such as the graffiti, cause some homosexual students to fear the possibility of the existence of an anti-homosexual sentiment on campus that could possibility lead to violence. "Hate crimes in North Carolina are higher than the national average," said Hartz, "In a more open community more people may feel like they can 'come out' where as at ASU some students may have a fear about it." Hartz said he feared that the religious con­ notation of the anti-gay graffiti would cause problems. He said he didn't want this to be­ come a gay versus the Christian community issue because he knows gays who are Chris­ tians. John Russell, the staff director for Campus Crusade for Christ, said the graffiti was done with the wrong ideas about Christ in mind. "I don't think that it is a representative of the Christian community as a whole but only of a small group of people," said Russell. Russell said that even though Christ didn't condone everything people did he still loved those people that sinned. Russell said that the way to express your beliefs is through per­ sonal communication and not spray-painting anti-gay messages. The graffiti, both homosexual and antihomosexual, has since been painted over by other students. Both groups of students, gay and anti-gay have not come forward to claim responsibility, but Gary Hartz has invited students that would like to express concerns about the ant-gay graffiti to contact him and B-GLAD at 262-6735.

[more elusive question is how to curb this problem, •.of gun control comes to mind, but our society will t lease its love of guns for the common good. As the NRA exists, no significant gun control laws enacted. The NRA has tried to block regulations i and fully automatic rifles, Teflon coated (cop Itoullets and even the Brady Bill, which puts a mandatory waiting period an the sale of handguns toallow time for a background check on the buyer.

They buy their guns in alleyways and street corners where the seller could not care less if the buyer was Mother Theresa or Jeffery Dahmer. Even the background check system cannot stop wanna-be crimi­ nals who do not have a record yeL There is no possibility of guns ever being outlawed all together due to the political pull of the multi-million dollar firearm industry and their protective force, the NRA lobbyists. Also, totally banning guns brings to mind the famous bumper sticker slogan, "Outlaw guns and only outlaws will have guns." Well, that is wonderful. Why not turn New York City and Los Angeles into modem day Dodge Cities? Every­ one can have guns strapped to their hips while the NRA sings the praises of the almighty "Right to Bear Arms." That amendment was written after the United States forcefully won its independence from a major world power. The threat of re-occupation or at least some mode of retaliation was eminent. So, the constitutional right to bear arms in case the British returned was a good idea... then. It is not a good idea in a world of drugs and high crime. The only true way to stop the violence is a change in public opinion. Only when Americans no longer buy into the power trips that guns can bring will the threat of violence decrease. Like the Brady Bill and the right to bear arms, this isa nice idea that sadly will never hold water. Two questions were posed and noanswers were reached. The mystery of the violent natureof American culture will probably never be solved. The film industry has played up this angle on Americans and firearms throughout the history of film. This violent American mindset is evident in the numerous productions of westerns, World War II films, Vietnam films, and even modem portrayals like "Dirty Harry" "Boys in the Hood," and the futuristic "Blade Runner." Americans will never give up their right to bear arms, because they are a part of the American culture like Mom and apple pie. But now Mom is getting killed while baking her apple pie because a stray bullet from a drive-by shooting ripped through the kitchen window. We musteventually reach the conclusion that enough is enough. This nationwide escalation of violencehas reached critical proportions. This genocide must stop, and it is up to each person to help disarm this problem by putting down their guns. The British are not coming anymore. ost abortions are morally unacceptable BY JOHN KERSON SPECIAL TO THE APPALACHIAN •attle lines on abortion are drawn. The two sides of »e are pro-life and pro-choice, with both groups si the extreme opposites of opinion. Certainly the also respect the sanctity of life, and the pro-life freedom of choice. Perhaps they should be repro-abortion and anti-abortion. In any case, the is "Which side should a person be on?" or "Who United States, freedom is valued. Many feel led to follow the point eloquently orated by Mr. orders in the Appalachian (14 Oct. 93). He wrote woman's right to clear the weeds... and right to the garden... must be reserved." His metaphor puts the pro-abortion side. I have respect for him, yet why he feels that way. I will consider his points one and perhaps add a comment of my own. eplores the quality of life that the child will have. Mr. Borders drives a silver Delorean with a funct i me travel device, he doesn't know what the future 1d. Certainly there are children bom to unfortunate stances. There are mothers that, as he puts it, "have to love... are asked to love and foster another Nobody knows how a new mother will respond, etimes rich, well-adjusted parents raise children disturbed enough to kill them. Sometimes a child - L*e mother become a more responsible adult As the i s uncertain, abortion is not a necessary benefit for '<^»man or any fetus in any circumstance. of his other points is: "The wonderful, but taxing 4 ion of motherhood is one that women must choose." " tails that all women who do not choose pregnancy jjwe abortions, if they so choose. Does he mean women that were impregnated through rape, incest, or mistake can have abortions? He takes his point even further. He wants to say that choice is a fundamental right. This suggests that there are only two options for any pregnancy: live baby, or dead lump of fleshy medical waste. Have adoptions been aban­ doned? Is adoption not a choice as well? Choice, like life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, is not an ultimate, undeniable right. My freedoms end where another's begin. Choice, like other freedoms, is a right that is limited. I may choose to kill a man. I may choose to kidnap a woman and cut her arms and legs off. Does freedom of choice grant those freedoms? Do I have the right to shoot a man just to watch him bleed? 1 think not! Max, do you hear me? Freedoms are limited by mo­ rality and legality. Legality, however, does not equate to morality. Is it legal to abort a baby? In many cases, yes. Is it moral? Sometimes. When? Apart from all the emotion, the first question is: What is abortion? It is not murder, because it does not wrongfully kill a person. The fetus that has EEG readings in the eighth week also has gills. It is not removing a chunk of parasitic, nonvolitional protoplasm. It is a rare combination of human DNA that can develop into a functional human. Objec­ tively , it is somewhere in between murder and lumpectomy. Abortion describes the willful removal of human tissue from a human body. The action absolutely prevents the tissue from developing into an adult human. What abor­ tion is, does not mean that it is inherendy right or wrong. What is the purpose of abortion? According to a 1992 study in the Journal of the Ameri­ can Medical Association, in 0.4 out of every 100,000 cases, abortion is used to protect the life of the pregnant woman. This means that in 99,999.6 out of every 100,000 cases, abortion is a choice unrelated to saving the life of the mother. Abortion removes unwanted pregnancies. What is an unwanted pregnancy? The majority of abortions are done based on choices concerning economic,lifestyle or emotional grounds. The choices are related to theconcerns of a woman who for one reason or another, wishes not to have a child at a certain time. In India, China, and many other countries, 20th century ultrasound technology mingles with traditions centuries old. Female fetusesare unwanted. Alison Renteln, a noted feminist, stated that sex selection through abortion should not be regulated. She is concerned with reproductive freedom. Here, pregnancy counselors discourage prenatal diag­ nosis for sex selection, but many favor a " woman's absolute right to abortion." I worry that wondrous future technology will detect eye color, brain size, or other features of a fetus. Will that technology begin the practice of aborting brown-eyed fetuses,or perhaps dumb fetuses? To base abortions on the possession of a pole or a hole seems wrong. Why is that? It is because, in a larger sense, abortion is a final decision. Based on a personal preference, the rights of the fetus, if any, are permanendy subverted. How many readers of this paper would like to have been aborted? I have examined Mr. Borders' case for abortion and found it bankrupt I do not have an argument against abortion that would fit within the pages of this paper, and I realize that I avoid considering the emotional pain of giving a baby up for adoption. I ask, "Is there less emo tional pain in giving a fetus up?" Some cases exist in which abortion is ethical. These are primarily cases in which the life of the pregnant woman is directly threatened, but perhaps also in cases in which the pregnant woman has been made pregnant unwillingly. The remainder of abortions are not morally or ethically supportable. ? readers write...about God, scruples and the truth DECREES THE ULTIMATE TRUTH -Br Sir: As Almighty GOD, I greet you: ' ^ mongrels accuse me falsely of bad grammar in 5^ f our past form letters, over three decades...which * to my son.

Any college student who has lived on cam­ pus, or been in contact with any number of other college students, knows the prevelance of alcohol at Appalachian. Although drink­ ing is basically an accepted form of recre­ ation, one must admit that, in many cases, students have taken it to dangerous extremes. In a recent survey'reported by the College Press Service, 35 percent of southern college | students said they had binged recently. The survey also found that these same students averaged 3.9 drinks a week. While alcohol can serve as a source of relaxation or a social prop, the down side cannot be ignored. When students take their drinking too far, it can result in low grades, violent outbursts, or other self-destructive behaivior. Another consequence that many students tend to ignore is that alcohol can impair judge­ ment when making decisions concerning sex. Waking up unsure where you are, who you are with, or how you got there can not only be awkward and embarrasing, but dangerous when taking into account AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. Perhaps a reason for this widespread accep­ tance of drinking has to do with an intense social pressure to drink, and a glorification of alcohol. In a college atmosphere wheredrink­ ing is considered the norm, many students may feel left out if they do not have a drink in their hand. Alcohol consumption can be enjoyable in moderation, but as with anything else, over indulgence can be dangerous. Drinking too much in college can lead to alcoholism, which in turn could cause more stress and hardship in one's life than normal college pressures ever could.

I remember standing on a huge boulder looking out at the battlefield trying to imagine hundreds of sol­ diers fighting and dying. Many years later, my imagination is being played out on the movie screen in Gettysburg. 1 never knew that the battle over Gettysburg was so violent and deadly. Nor did I realize that many men had died on the exact boulder where I stood. Gettysburg is a wonderful, jaw-dropping four hour and ten minute dramatic re-enact­ ment of the three-day battle that killed over 50 thousand men. No single battle since then or now has claimed so many lives; more Ameri­ cans were killed in Gettysburg than in the entire Vietnam War. Gettysburg shows us in unsparing detail how this tragic battle came about, from its very accidental inception to the final with­ drawal. The Confederacy and the Union are given equal screen time. There are no good guys or bad guys here, just normal men on two sides of a battlefield. The scene which recre­ ates Pickett's Charge is one of the best pieces of filmmaking 1 have ever seen.

TERRANT - ASSISTANT Life's little tragedies BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR We all know how depressing it can be to turn on the news — murders, robberies, and war overseas. There are so many social problems in the world, just watching TV or reading a newspaper can be overwhelming. It's a wonder we make it through our daily lives. Sometimes, however, the small things that happen every day can be just as frus­ trating as larger-scale events. I'll never learn to deal with life's little tragedies. A morning that starts off wrong can leave me in a rotten mood the rest of the day, mornings that I can't wear my favorite jeans because they have a spot on them or I don't have any bagels left for breakfast. As the afternoon progresses, I usually realize I've left something important in my apartment after I've walked the whole way to class. Frustration increases when my professor announces he still doesn't have our papers graded, then keeps us ten min­ utes after class is over. Even after I go home, my car isso low on gas I can't go out for dinner without stop­ ping at a station first. My favorite televi­ sion show is a rerun and my mother calls to say my credit card bill came in the mail and what do you think you're doing spending that much money! I'm not implying that these things hap­ pen every, day; many days start and end peacefully. You get the general idea,though. Sometimes it's not the individual incidents that wear me down—it's the combination of everything happening at once. It's a wonder we stay sane with the num­ ber of "petty" things that test our sanity eachday. I suppose they teach us lessons of patience and flexibility—lessons we all eventually need to leam.

Though the Mountaineers (1-6-0) are not in the same position this year, the attitude will be no different when they step onto the field with the 4-2 'Herd in West Virginia on Saturday. "We are approaching the Marshall game like it's for thechampionshipof the Southern Conference," said Appalachian Head Coach Jerry Moore. "We are out of the running for the league tide, but we are going to finish this season the right way." The Apps have beaten Marshall in six of the last nine meetings between the two schools. The Apps have also won 12of the 17 meetings in the history of the rivalry. This season has been a particularly difficult one for the Mountaineers because they have had chances to win each game. Now, Moore has to help his team overcome the frustration they must feel after such a disappointing sea­ son. 'This is a special team," said Moore. "We have been in some tough situations and I am really proud of the way this team has handled itself." The Mountaineers will appear on SportsSouth television for thesecond week in a row. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. Big Apple road race a huge success The Appalachian Lady Spikers broke a two-game losing skid with an impressive win over North Carolina A&T. The Lady Mountaineers took the match 30. They won 15-8, 15-6, and 15-9. The match came on the heels of losing two straight matches to North Carolina and NC State. Offensively the Mountaineers were led by Deena Keen and Heidi McElhaney. Keen got 11 kills with 4 errors and 5 digs. McElhaney In a season which the Appalachian State football team is off to a dismal 1-6 start, the casual observer might come to the conclusion that Appalachian has an unsuccessful athletic program. Not so, say the three who head the athletic department. While Athletic Director Roachel Laney, Assistant Director Mark Dreibelbis, and As­ sociate Director Dr. Judy Clarke agree that winning is important, but it is not the root of what determines success in a collegiate ath­ letic program. The number one priority of athletics at Appalachian is,according to Laney: is "to graduate our student athletes." Appalachian is very successful because the percentage of student athletes whograduate is equal to the percentage of non-athlete stu­ dents who receive diplomas. Laney, a native of Cheraw, South Carolina and a graduate of Catawba College, is in his fourth year as Director of Athletics at Appala­ chian. Laney's duties includesupervising all 18 Mountaineer varsity sports programs and 45 employees. Describing his job, Laney said "every day is different, which is something that I really like. It's a challenge as each day I'm faced with new problems." Laney works long hours, usually arriving at the office at 7:30 a.m., and leaving after 9 p.m. Laney, who lives in Boone with his wife JoAnn and two sons Josh and Adam, has been working so much these past few months that he has not eaten a meal with his family since August. In fact, in his 18 years as part of the Appalachian athletic staff Laney has taken only one vacation. Ironically it was during that vacation that Laney learned he was to take over the Mountaineer athletic depart­ ment Laney was finishing a backpacking trip in New Mexico with his son's Boy Scout troop when he picked up a USA Today and read that Jim Garner had stepped down, and he had been named the interim director. Five months later, on Dec. 12, 1990 Laney was promoted to full athletic director. Prior to taking his current position Laney worked as a graduate assistant football coach while earning his master's degree in 1973. After coaching and teaching at Barnwell High School in South Carolina for two years, Laney returned to the Mountaineer football program. After four years on the grid squad, Laney took over the Yosef Club, which is respon­ sible for all athletic fundraising. Three years later, in 1983 Laney was named Associate Athletic Director, the title he held until he was promoted to his current position. While Laney is extremely busy operating the athletic department, including direct re­ sponsibility for football and basketball, he ROACHEL LANEY RUNNERS TOE THE LINE: Chancellor Bartkowski not only fired the starting gun, but also competed in the race with many local citizens, (photo by Mike Rominger) got 12 kills with 2 errors and 5 digs. Kathy Graneck, Sheri Leverette, and Kim Manis led the Mountaineers in the assist col­ umn. Graneck got 18 assists in only 2 games. Leverette got 8assists and Manis got 7 assists. North Carolina A&T was lead by Shantella Riggbee with 10 kills. Also contributing for "It [intercollegiate athletics] is a unique developmental tool for young people," said Dreibelbis. "They learn learn time manage­ ment, direction, and dedication. These are all attributes that really help people in setting and accomplishing goals later in life." A 1977 Appalachian graduate, Dreibelbis spent six years teaching at Hardin Park el­ ementary school in Boone before joining the Mountaineer athletic staff. He began as the University's Annual Giving Director, before following Laney's footsteps in taking over the Yosef club in 1986. In July MARK DREIBELBIS delegates much of his duties to his two assis­ tants Mark Dreibelbis and Dr. Judy Clarke. Dreibelbis has been in the Mountaineer ath­ letic administration for ten years, Clarke for twenty-one. Included in Dreibelbis' responsibilities is overseeing the following sports: baseball, men's soccer, men's and women's golf, and wrestling. Dreibelbis also is head recruiting coordinator, game-day manager for football and basketball, and runs the Appalachian sports marketing and promotions program. Dreibelbis says he loves his job because it gives him the opportunity to interact with all kinds of people. "On any given day I could talk with a student one minute, and then the CEO of a major company the next," said Dreibelbis. "I have a very strong commitment to academ­ ics." Dreibelbis sees intercollegiate athletics as a unique opportunity for the students. Michael Jord; retires BY PATRICK SALES REPORTS You either hate or lovenicbs th^m NrPUl,f0rtheB^ them.

Clarke feels that athletics in the Univer­ sity are important for a variety of reasons. "It gives the student the opportunity to do something they'regood at,"said Clarke. Just like in an artclass, athletics gives the talented a chance to express themselves. This helps individuals build self-confi­ dence." Clarke also feels that athletics benefit the school as a whole because it "brings spirit to the University" and gives the student body something to identify with. Clarke lives in Boone and plans to retire within the next few years. She plans on traveling and continuing herparticipa­ tion in the Senior Games after she leaves Appala­ chian.

The meet­ ing was held Friday at the county park on top of Howard's Knob. 'The bottom line is to preserve the moun­ tain," said White. There is the possibility to secure the land now and not open it for several years or until it is paid. Approxi­ mately 79 acres and possibly more have been mapped out as potential state park land, ac­ cording to White. "The most important thing is for the com­ munity to buy into the idea of Howard's Knob as a state park," said White. "Right now, think of organizing beyond Friends of the Knob." White discussed ways to finance the pur­ chase of Howard's Knob as a state park. A park fund was introduced in the state's gen­ eral assembly. The fund would be a perma­ nent source of state funding which could begin in 1995. A $35 million park bond is available for schools, sewers and state parks. The federal government offers $250,000$300,000 a year to the forming of state parks. "We've got to think what is our short-term solution," said White. "You need to create your own task force organization." Hunter Schofield, newly appointed town council member and one of the founders of Friends of the Knob, a group organized to preserve the Howard's Knob area, presented Joe Quinn (Director of Outdoor Programs), Dr. Bill Herring (local orthapedic M.D. who works with Upward Bound) and Joey Henson (Chairman for Friends of the Knob) examine plans for 79 acres of Howard's Knob to be converted to a state park, (photo by Eason Bryan)- apian for the area. He also identified Friends of the Knob's five main objectives. Schofield said that Friends of the Knob op­ poses development of Howard's Knob for rec­ reational, educational, economic, cultural and environmental reasons. White discussed how the Friends of the Knob's objectives parallel the objectives of the State Resources Service cited in the State Park Act of 1988. The State Resources Service looks at potential state park land in its aspects of nature, archaeology, biol­ ogy, scenic quality and recreation, according to White. "There is a unique opportunity to bring together our community into one uni­ fied group with onecommon goal: to preserve this mountain," said Friends of the Knob Chairman Joey Henson. Those present at the meeting included local state legislator Wade Wilmoth, former local state legislator Gene Wilson, county planning memberTom Fox, county commissioner Jack Lawrence, mayor Velma Burnley, Outdoor Programs director Joe Quinn, geology profes­ sor Dr. Jack Callahan, anthropology profes­ sor and local chapter head of the Sierra Club Dr. Harvard Ayers, town council member Hunter Schofield, Dr. Bill Herring, county planning and inspections director JoeFurman, and Watauga County Parks and Recreation director Deb Winn. The concerned citizens at the meeting were Marsha Patterson, Tess and Stephanie Miles, Ashley Alderman and Joey Henson. Studies show college alcohol abuse National Briefs BY KELLIE WELBORN REPORTER AND CPS Regional drinking patterns and the effects of drinking games have been brought to light in two recent studies on American college campuses. Alcohol abuse is the focus of the National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week at Ap­ palachian, Oct. 17 - 23. The recent studies have been conducted to make students and others aware of the scope, dangers and ef­ fects of alcohol abuse. One survey titled "Alcohol and Drugs on American Campuses," disclosed regional drinking patterns throughout the country, and found the Northeast to have the highest incidence of alcohol consumption on its col­ lege campuses. The average student there consumed 7.1 drinks of liquor, beer or wine per week, with 53 percent adm itting they had recently hinged on five or more drinks in one sitting. In the South, the survey found that stu­ dents consumed an average of 3.9 drinks per week and 35 percent admitting they had recently hinged. Drinking games were the subject of an­ other study which surveyed nearly 4,000 alcohol-consuming students from 58 Ameri­ can colleges. David Hanson, sociology professor at Potsdam College of the State University of New York, and Ruth Engs, professor of ap­ plied health science at Indiana University at Fort Wayne, Ind., conducted the study. "Chug-a-lug" contests, which identify win­ ners by those who consume the most alcohol in a designated time period, and "quarters," in which a quarter is flipped into a glass and a participant is designated to drink, were identi­ fied as two of the most popular campus drink­ ing games. The report indicated that students who claimed to be "light" or "moderate" drinkers (no more than four drinks per week) experi­ enced few alcohol related problems. Those who had played a drinking game within the preceding year significantly increased the probability of negative consequences in 15 of 17 drinking-related behaviors. These included missing class, getting low grades, law viola­ tions, violent behavior and property damage. Twice as many game players as non-game players reported having difficulties in most categories, as well as expressing fear that they may be alcoholics. Hanson and Engs concluded that greater attention should be given to drinking games within campus alcohol prevention programs and messages. Appalachian has activities scheduled throughout the week toincrease alcohol aware­ ness. Events include "Just Ask Why- Try It Dry" night, 9 p.m. Friday at the Pub. Marblehead will perform. A breathalizer experiment will be held on Sanford Mall tomorrow from Noon until 2 p.m. Also on Wednesday, the annual health fair will be held at the Quinn Center from 3:30 p.m.- 8 p.m. ALCOHOL ABUSE .West includes Alaska and Hawaii North Central Northeast n/ 7.1 drinks per week 53% binge Ishmael Reed, author and satirist, spoke on "Trends in Contemporary American Cul­ ture" to students and faculty Thursday night in Farthing auditorium. Reed said the media focuses on African Americans in crime and social problems.. Reed said the media almost always portrays drug users as young African Americans, but surveys have shown the averagedrug user is a middle-aged white male professional. "I'm tired of the stereotypes, but I'm also against censorship," said Reed. He said that when the media makes claims against blacks, "they should be challenged." His most recent novel, Airing Dirty Laun­ dry focuses on the American news media. He said that stations such as CBS, ABC and CNN divide black and white societies. He The United Nations threatened to impose an aims and oil embargo upon the nation of Haiti if steps were not taken to restore President Jean-Bertrond Aristide to power. President Clinton has stated that he has not ruled out using U.S. military force to restore the country's first freely elected leader. Over the weekend, six U.S. war­ ships were dispatched off the coast to en­ force the embargo. The U.S. mission, ac­ cording to U.N. envoy Madeleine Albright, is to protect the1,000 Americans and 9,000 of dual citizenship there and to live up to the U.S. commitment to restore democracy. Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole strongly objects to any U.S. intervention in Haiti and is preparing legislation that would restrict the president from committing forces there Lt. Gen. RaoulCedras, current leader in Haiti, came to power under a 1991 coup that overthrew Aristide./y. Aristide was to ............... . -*U - return to office under an accord signed by hiipsclf and Cedras. Since then Cedras has said he will not step down. VERDICTS EXPECTED IN DENNY TRIAL Average Number Of Drinks Per Week Percentage Binging In The Previous Two Weeks Speaker finds bias in media coverage BY HOLLY CRANE, REPORTER & DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR U.S. PREPARES FOR EM­ BARGO AGAINST HAITI said the media focuses on the violence of black society and does not show the ills of white society. "I am appalled at the way the American media has divided certain people," Reed said. He has led boycotts from his house in Oakland, California against ABC, CBS and CNN. Reed said that while problems such as mur­ der, drugs and poverty are applied to African Americans, the problems are happening all over. He said that America will neversolve its social problems without looking at everyone. He also said that the social problems of African Americans should be told, but so should the stories of other Americans. "We should not aim all the attention at one group," said Reed. "We should care about both groups." After Reed spoke, he took questions from the audience. One student asked what Americans can do to affect media coverage. "With politi­ cians, wecan vote," said one student. "Buthow can we change the press?" Reed answered the question by voicing his support of the fairness doctrine bill. The bill would require the media to balance the time allotted to political viewpoints. "Every time Rush Limbaugh makes a joke, I'd like to make a joke," said Reed. He said people could write their senators in support of the bill. He closed by saying that students had to work on better relations between people. He said, "It's up to you to dispel the myths among Americans." At age 13, Reed began writing a jazz criti­ cism newspaper column. In 1976, he estab­ lished the Before Columbus Foundation, which is used as a means of promoting Ameri­ can multicultural literature. He is the author of eight novels including Mumbo Jumbo and The Terrible Twos. Several of his books have been nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. The jury in the trail involving Reginald Denny reached verdicts on Satur­ day on nineof the fifteen total counts against defendants Damian Williams and Henry Watson. Superior Court Judge John Ouderkirk gave the jury Sunday off to de­ cide whether or not to continue delibera­ tions. If not, a mistrial will be declared on the deadlocked counts. The panel of ten women and two men are reportedly deadlocked over such charges as the attempted murder count against Williams who is accused of throw ing a brick at Denny's head. Deliberation began on Oct. 1 and has had to start over twice. Two different jurors have been ex cused for various reasons.

The college experience should and must allow time for all students to drink their fill from the academic chalice. Knowledge is a worthy goal in itself.

I cannot volumes of this newspaper systematically explainis. If you want to get to the meat and potatoes of tivist metaphysicsand epistemology try reading the » Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand± by ^rd Peikoff.

Perhaps the '^^rious "aforementioned affirmations" as he so elo*-ly states would not have been so mysterious had he & "The choice of life or death" was a continuation. ®^-eason with a capital "R." How caustic.(Speaking of ^ * lectual traps" don't fall for the arbitrary device of ^^m.) ^fanning uses the Newton "apple" allegory as if Objectivism vehemently supports Newtonian Physics. This philosophy merely recognizes the Law of Identity. Identity, the nature of the universe, may be much more complex than Manning or Newton ever dreamed. Man­ ning makes context-dropped assumptions about my brief synopsis. I will say this; Newton may not have witnessed the apple falling from the tree, but what are you going to do, Manning, when Barry Bonds baseball bat comes flying at your face? Are you going to choose to get out of the way? 5. He described in his "letter" the "given set of vari­ ables." Those are the "rules" I'm talking about. The ethic of free will is corollary to discovering and obeying all those "rules," with (R)eason as the tool for doing so. Not the reverse, which was your misinterpretation. Please try to separate my figurative language from the literal. I know its hard to understand. Again I suggest Peikoffs book. 6. Manning reaches the arbitrary conclusion that I am a pacifist. Is it difficult to understand the idea that force is the only way to kill a person's volitional mind? I'm talking about respect for human life. War isethical when its cause is to defend all that is preciousabout human life- freedom and happiness. Is it hard to understand that when one goes out with the intent torob and kill for another's possessions or another's beliefs. It is unethical ? That was the point, sorry I was not clear. 7. A virtuousgoal is a goal not based on whim. I'm sure P)ifl DKivWs fekVtoAsW'.p Lol-Vk Mr. Manning and everyone else find their goals to be virtuous. The point is that we should ensure everyone's right to their goals, whether those are to venerate and study nature, build a small business, make a rap album, or write a newspaper column. 8. I don't know what kind of clothing Mr. Manning wears. Many of the students on this campus wear things thatdon'tagree with my tastes. However, I would not have the right to ask the University, or Boone town-council, or that person to remove his/her gaudy jewelery, garish clothing, yellow teeth, or unwashed hair, although, a spiffy young Nazi German had that right in 1939. Are the pink flamingo's in your neighbors' yard an eyesore? Is your 1979 Cutlass Supreme? If you like trees, work, buy land, or move into an area zoned for trees! To say that a house where people live is an "eyesore," is to say that a person's happiness is a festering pimple on the butt of a savage communal life. Besides, people love trees in their yards, they're not going to turn Howards Knob into the Arizona Desert 9. Finally, I mock the accusation of a "conservative agenda." Conservatism is totally incompatible with Ob­ jectivism. If you don't believe that, read my column on abortion and see how many conservatives you can find to agree with it!...I'd rather argue over coffee, Mr. Manning.

I don't know if I'll have time to entertain further letters. i^eAicv..* Get to Work The Appalachian would like to congratulate the three recently elected members of the Boone Town Council: Hunter Schofield, Ben Suttle and Louise Miller. Your concern for this community and willingness to serve its people is appreciated; the members of this community who voted for you believe in you and your ability to act in their best interest. You've been elected—now get to work. No one has to tell you that the hardest part of your job began the day you were elected and ends when your term has been served. YouknowthecitizensofBooneexpect the town council to confront difficult issues and strive diligently to find solutions that benefit the town as a whole. You are well aware of the responsibilities involved in representing a small community that serves approximately 12,000 college students, as well as a large tourist population. In our Oct. 12-14/Weekday Edition, all three of you answered the question, "What do you think is the most pressing issue facing Boone today?" Hillside preserva­ tion, upgrading the waste-water system, and growth were recognized as issues that require concentration. We agree. In a small, conjested community like ours, these issues command the attention of concerned citi- j zens and city officials; they must not be neglected. You must take the initiative and begin searching for solu­ tions. In the next two to four years, Boone will see many changes—some internal and some external. Howard's Knob might become a state park, Liquor-By-The-Drink might come up for another vote, and Appalachian State University might receive a new Math and Science Complex and an Administrative Support Building. All of these potential changes could have a significant impact on the town of Boone. Will you be prepared to face what lies ahead for this community? You were also asked, "How do you view the relation­ ship between Appalachian and the community?" Your answers were printed in the edition of The Appalachian mentioned above: Schofield—"The two cannont stand alone,and I will be a good bridge between them." Suttle — The relationship "goes up and down. There are times when student parties upset certain neiborhoods, but I feel the town is bending over backwards to coop­ erate." Miller—"I want to improve the relationship and keep it open. We make every effort to include university representatives on all boards." We feel that the relationship between Appalachian and the community deserves the attention of town officials because the university has such an impact on the town of Boone. We realize, too, that students share the responsibility of cooperating with town residents and officials; however, you must recognize your role as well. From what you said before the election, we are confident in your acknowledgement of Appalachian. Now that you've been elected, keep us in mind. And, once again, congratulations. The three of you have been given the opportunity to make the world around you better, to make Boone, NC a better commu­ nity. Take this challenge to heart, and challenge your­ selves in your own way every day. The membersof this community who voted for you expect 100 percent of your effort So get to work.

Other activities that will take place over the week include the "world's largest aerobics class," a cross-training challenge, and a triathlon. The triathlon will require partici­ pants to ride a stationary bicycle for 10 min­ utes, run or walk one mile around the track, and do one minute of push-ups or pull-ups. People who are involved with the events can enter in the drawing for watches. "Anyone can win just by doing it, " said Crane. "It won' t be focused on just the people who have been working out for a long time." Saturday will offer an aerobics certification program that is nationally renowned. Stu­ dents who feel comfortable with their skills may take a written and a practical test to become certified for teaching aerobics. Although the fitness week that took place last year was successful, Crane believes that this year will be even better. The program has expanded, offering more prizes donated by the sponsors.

XVHATARE THE CONSEQUENCES J)F OUR RACIAL POLARIZATION? only surviving member of the run another such ad if Smith tries to get one published. He says the editor has a final say about ad publication. Davey said he was horrified when the ad ran, and that campus reaction was negative. "It was a big brouhaha. The Jewish commu­ nity was very offended," Davey said. "I just felt the marketplace of ideas become so promi­ nent that it overruled ethical questions. It can only take it so far. It shouldn't be debated." Smith said not only is he trying to advertise the videotapes, but he is trying to organize speaking engagements on campuses about the tapes. He would not say which campuses he was targeting. He said the Committee on Open Debate on the Holocaust believes that gas chambers did not exist, and their existence was created as propaganda first by the Soviet Union and the France, Great Britain and finally the United Sates. If the gas chambers didn't exist, he said, then Germany had no plan to kill the Jews. "We no longer believe the Germans had a state policy to exterminate the Jews of Europe. They had no weapons to do that," he said. Lipstadt, at Emory University, said she would describe Holocaust deniers as "white supremacists" who shouldn't be given a fo­ rum on campus. "These people are haters. Hating becomes their life breath. Hating is their nourish­ ment," she said. "They are trying to destroy the history of the Holocaust Some of them are trying to spread anti-Semitism. They are trying to attack history. If this history is not true, is there anything else true?"

Dr. Bernie Baker, a professor at Appalachian who had his home town wiped out by the Holocaust, said he had heard of the Holocaust ad controversy in other places but had not heard any mention of it coming to Appalachian. He added that he would be abhorred if it did.

TERRANT - ASSISTANT The Peter Principle BY AMY TERRANT ASSISTANT ET CETERA EDITOR The Peter Principle. What is that?! Quite simply, the Peter Principle means that we rise to our own level of incompetence. And that's exactly what has happened to me. I'm excited about having an editorial posi­ tion with The Appalachian, yet sometimes I still wonder if I'm getting in over my head. I obtained some experience in journalism when I worked on my high school's yearbook, but I wasn't an editor. In fact, I'm still learning what an editor does. When I went to The Appalachian, I was thinking of just doing some writing,or maybe some production work. The editor-in chief suggested that I take the assistant editor posi­ tion for the Et Cetera page. (I think I was in the right place at the right time). I was definitely excited about taking the position, though I had no idea what I would be doing. I look the job because it would be great experience and it would be the first job I've had in my career field. All of my previous jobs consisted of working in restaurants and clothing stores to earn extra money. NowI'm a journalist Many times the idea of the Peter Principle has struck me, such as the time I started preschool. My mother took me to school and, after looking at all the faces of the children I didn't know, I was ready to leave immediately! Of course, my mother had other plans. She tenderly kissed me good-bye and told me she'd be back later. It's easy to look back on that time and laugh, but when I was three years old, it was a major crisis! After my short period of separation anxiety, though, I quickly made a few friends and started having fun. When my mother came to get me, I didn't want to leave. But I said good-bye to my friends and looked forward to the next day. All through school I was faced with the Peter Principle. (I'm sure most people were faced with it, as well.) In elementary school, I was used to having all of my classes in one room. When I started junior high, I thought, "How in the world am I going to remember where all my classrooms are?!" I was sure I'd get tost and end up in my English classroom for my math class. As well, I was fretful of taking exams. Just the year before, I didn't have to remember infor mation for more than a week. This time, I had to keep up with all my work for the mid-term and final exams! How was I supposed to do that? High school was a struggle. The work got harder and the days seemed to get longer, I had mastered the bit about having my classes in separate rooms. I guess high school was hard because that's when my identity crisis set in. Who am I and what do I want to do? Beats me!! And then there was the part about learning to drive. Many of my friends already knew basically how to drive when we took driver's ed. I, on the other hand, did not. To me, a car was a huge piece of machinery that I didn't know how to control. Actually, I think it had control over me! My driver's ed. instructor helped me a great deal to improve my driving. My, he was a brave man!! When I think about it now, it really wasn't the driving that was so hard. I was just really ;ood at convincing myself thatl can't do new things. It became a self-fulfilling prophesy: I told myself I couldn't do something, and, therefore, I couldn't do it. I'm changing my ways, though. Once I finished the high school game, of which I had become very good, it was time to move on to college. This game follows a completely different set of rules, which was a rude awakening for me! I had no idea what it meant to have fifteen hours worth of classes, The problem with getting to class was not only which room it was in, but which build ing. And where was the building?? And which daysdo I have the class?? And how am I supposed to study in a noisy residence hall? I think I'm getting the hang of college (considering I've been here a while). I'm getting the hang of being an editor, too. I suppose that this means it's time, once again, to rise to my level of incompetence. After all, as a wise, young sage (my mother) often tells me, the Peter Principle is what makes you grow. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 19 OCTOBER 1993, PAGE 8 \ Appalachian News Official University News And Announcements Alcohol Awareness Week Timex Fitness Week Several campus offices and student groups have joined forces to offer a vvanety of educational programs and entertainment for National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week, October 17-23, 1993.

National Award for Distance Learning New York, October 12, 1993 — In an effort to improve the exercise habits of American college students, Appalachian State University is one of 300 schools participating in the fifth annual Timex Week presented by Ocean Spray. The events, held during the week of October 18-24, is sponsored by Timex, Ocean Spray and Cool Mint Listerine, and endorsed by the National Intramural - Recreational Sports Association (NISRA). During the week of fitness, each school's recreational sports department will showcase a variety of running, swimming, cycling and aerobics activities ranging from introductory clinics to triathilons. Ocean Spray will present "The World's Largest Aerobics Class," — a free aerobics class will be held on Thursday October 21, at all 300 schools. Last year an estimated 25,000 students participated in the aerobics marathon. For information about local Timex Fitness Week events, contact the Quinn Recreational Center at 262-3035. Timex s best selling sport watches and T-shirts will be awarded as prizes, and free samples of Ocean Spray and Cool Mint Listerine will be distributed at selected events. Appalachian State University was recently named a finalist in the 1993 ENE Awards program. The internationally recognized educational network program honors users of enterprise networks that provide competi­ tive advantage in the business/ education environment. The university's project, Impact North Carolina: 21st Century Education," was the only program in American higher education to be recognized. The $2.3 million partnership, launched by Appalachian, is a learning project which includes the University, AT&T, BellSouth, Com'binet, Inc., Compression Labs, and NCR Corp. With all the diversions available in college, many students do not develop a regular fitness program,' explains Gregor McCluskey, Manager of Sports Marketing and Sales for Timex. "We hope that by expanding Timex Fitness Week to 300 schools, we can show students how to integrate exercise into their busy class schedule and beyond." The distance learning program links the University with three public schools using ISDN for interactive video, voice, and data connection. The award was presented during the Networld Dallas '93 international exhibition in Dallas, Texas.

Another more personal reason for coming to Appalachian is the proximity to West Virginia, where he was bom. "I was a mountaineer early on. It's nice to come full circle and bea Mountaineeragain." Dr. Borkowski hopes to advance the pos­ ture of the university in respect to other N.C. schools for greater funding. He stressed a need to reexamine the undergraduate cur­ riculum and to bring more diversity to the student body, faculty and staff. He also heavily emphasized the upcoming bond referendum which is currently taking all his attention. Even though it is coming at a perfect timefor North Carolina, he still sees a chance that it might fail. "I'm concerned because there are so many people out there who don't have confidence in government. There is a great credibility problem in government." He thinks several people have doubts just because the bond is on a state ballot and politicians are supporting it "The people who want to vote for it won't, and the people who are against it will go to the polls." During a question and answer session with the senate, the chancellor was asked about the future growth of Appalachian in terms of en­ rollment Dr. Borkowski sees growth as the most difficult issue Appalachian is going to face in the coming years. 'The plan has been to grow slowly, thirty to fifty students a year. I'm very comfortable with that I would be comfortable to cap it off right now," he said. "Unfortunately,increasing funds from the state is tied to head count. No matter how you cut it, you get more money if you have more people." Dr. Borkowski cited the example of UNCCharlotte which is growing deliberately by 1300-1500 students. It is almost impossible to receive the equivalent funding as UNCC be­ cause they are becoming a much larger univer­ sity in terms of student enrollment The prob­ lem is how to make the case for additional resources while holding enrollment constant or at a very slow growth rate. "I don't want to grow and lose the kind of relationship and environment that we have here, [but] I don't want to simply become another cut-out institution." After the bond referendum Dr. Borkowski plans to look at the whole planning function of the university. "I'll be looking hard at the institution itself to see if it can be more open, more responsive. The budgeting process can be more integrated. [I'll be] looking at the diversity part and look­ ing at the research aspect of it" Borkowski spoke to SGA at the student senate's Oct. 5 meeting and addressed topics such as growth, curriculum and the Nov. 2 bond referendum. Phone registration comes to Appalachian DAMIEN CARPER STAFF WRITER Appalachian will soon enter the company of colleges that use telephones to register students for classes. According to Brooks McGeod, Appalachian's registrar, a tele­ phone registration system may be opera­ tional by fall 1994. The cost of the system, approximately $100,000, has already been met by the avail­ able school budget. McCleod said the system still needs to be installed and tested. The technical aspects of the system, such as the number of phone lines available, will be determined by which vendor the school pur­ chases the system from. McCleod said he hoped all tests could be completed in time to have the system opera­ tional by fall of next year. "It will be trial and error at the beginning tosee how many students respond," said McCleod. Some students, such as sophomore Sherry Kidd, have heard horror stories of classes fill­ ing up too early and busy phone lines holding up the process and are skeptical of the new registration system. "I think that the system would cause too many problems because of the number of stu­ dents that would be trying to call," said Kidd. Students hesitant to use the phone system would still be able to use the terminal registra­ tion. According to McCleod, the two systems will run parallel to each other. However, the number of terminals used in the original reg­ istration process would be cut down with the hope that morestudents would turn to the new system. Students like Susan Alford, a fresh­ man, are looking forward to the new system. "I would like to try it because it sounds like it will save time in the long run," said Alford. Alford said she has heard stories from people at other schools about try ing toregister all day by phone, but she feels confident that since both the phone and terminal systems will run, no problems will occur with her registration plans. satellite conference billed as the largmeeting of women ever held in the U.S. U be shown Oct 23 at the Broyhill Inn. : Dual Vision: Excellence for You, Emi^OAwerment for All Women" begins at 11 *"*~L The conference will feature appear;^"Ac:esby Hillary Clinton, Texas Gov.

(photo by Karla Smith) Senate approves SGA appointments BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER The student senate confirmed the appoint­ ments of Michael Marlatt as chairperson pro-temp, Brian Taylor as sergeant-at-arms and Billy Bunting as parliamentarian, Tues­ day. All appointees passed senate unanimously with the exception of Bunting. A few sena­ tors held reservations about his knowledge of parliamentary procedure. During the interview session between the senators and nominees, Bunting was ques­ tioned about hisoverall knowledge of parlia­ mentary procedure. He quoted his experi­ ence in his high school student government. "I am not a master of parliamentary proce­ dure; I do not know everything about it," he said. "By the time we get into full swing and [begin] to actually tackle the students' issues here at Appalachian, I will be master of parliamentary procedure." Paul Burleson, the representative from Newland, stood behind the appointment of Bunting. "I believe Billy (Bunting) does not have a lot of experience as of now in parliamentary proce­ dure but I feel we the senate [should] give him the full support he deserves," he said. "He has a positive motivation behind him [and] he has willingness and determination." David Cox, Coffey Hall representative, rec­ ognized determination and motivation as im­ portant, but stated that something more was needed. "The two most important people in this body are the chairperson and the parliamentarian," he said. "Determination, will power and having the senate body behind someone doesn't neces­ sarily make someone a good parliamentarian. Knowledge of parliamentary procedure makes someone a good parliamentarian." Cox also stated that important considerations may come up before the end of the semester, when Bunting will be more knowledgeable in procedure. Chris Hollar, the representative from Winkler, asked if anyone in senate knew parliamentary procedure "like the back of their hand." "I believe this man has the ability to do this and I'll stand behind him one hundred per­ cent," Hollar said. Meagan Jones, off campus, agreed that few senators understood parliamentary procedure. "The fact that not a whole lot of us know much about parliamentary procedure is ex­ actly why we need someone who does," she said. "If we don't know what's gong on then nobody will. It's important that we have someone who does." With a majority vote needed, Bunting's nomination wasaffirmed with 29 for,9 against, and three abstentions. Bunting is a freshman and represents Doughton Hall in the senate. Marlatt is a junior marketing major sent to the senate by Winkler Hall. Taylor is also a junior market­ ing major with off-campus constituents. The senate also unanimously passed a reso­ lution supporting the upcoming bond referen­ dum. or fall iotothe third world. He believes that Latin America belongs to the third world because of its principal economic charac­ t rsi s e i tc . if Botja compared the agriculture of the United States and Latin America. Latin America dedicates40 percent of its indus try to the cultivation of land; the United States only dedicates 4 to 5 percent This means that Latin America employs 40 people to feed 100 people while the United States only empioys4 to5 people to feed iOOpeopfe. This disparity, Borjasaid, is due to the lack of advanced technology in Latin America. Botja said that Latin America has a high level of dependency on foreign countries, and that "technology is the primary cause of all dependencies." He said everything depends 00 technology whether it is tech­ nology dealing with the economy, the mili­ tary or culture in general. Botja said he is vety concerned with relations between the North and the South, more specifically between die developed and underdeveloped countries. He believes tt is important to understand one another and that it is possible for relations to he i: ' These two prerequisites are to end pro­ tectionist policies of industrialized nations and political organization intervention in the political affairs of another state.

Right at the time when my in resists solving another math problem or reading ither chapter, I'm besieged with more homework, there must be fun occupations out there that 1 L-.___1_.IW .^i.t require nearly as much study! Maybe I could hundreds of thousands of dollars playing beach ***Ljjeyball, like on television? Naw... I missed the boat that one a long time ago. Emmitt Smith, of the ^L^llas Cowboys, just renewed his contract for a reted $13.6 million over four years, with $4 million first year, just for signing. You think the Cowboys any money left after signing Troy, Emmitt, and chael Irving? Now I've been watching the special s and I'm sure that Dallas could use a decent iter. Maybe I should give it a try. Humph! You're ht. That's probably not a very good idea. I'm certain that some of you reading this have had - ,-nilar thoughts and feelings during this first round of £->c-^ms. Perhaps not so ridiculous, but similar in conI've overheard you in thecafeteriaand on the way classes, lamenting with your cohorts. One young grn&n was musing with a friend that perhaps he should _ , a jt school and join the army, see the world... save a jlt*le money and have some fun. Believe me, I sympaIzed completely. But after having been out in the orld for a while before returning to school to com:te my graduate studies, I could see the short;htedness of his philosophy. Education does not guarantee success in life, be-f»«jse there are no guarantees. The life worth living is < filled with risks, but those risks should be measured •%r&:ry carefully. As that young man spoke, my thoughts went back to stray that I heard many years ago. It is the story of a f* man who measured his actions not carefully, but £ rrmpulsively, perhaps not measuring the consequences all, living only through his emotions. It is somewhat of sparable, originally told by Russell Conwell, founder of Temple University. It seems that Mr. Conwell was quite well traveled, and on a particular journey through Persia, his guide slmsied this story with him, which hein turn shared with many others. The story has been told and retold, ified consciously and unconseiously, then tokf ain. It goes something like this: Hot far from the River Indus lived an ancient Persian i>y the name of A1 Hafed. A1 Hafed owned a very large farm with orchards, grain fields and gardens. He was a contented and wealthy man...contented because he was wealthy, and wealthy because he was contented. d>ne day he was visited by a Buddhist priest who sat do-wn by the fire with him and told the old farmer how crust. Then theinternal flames burst through thecooling crust and threw up mountains and made magnificent hills and valleys. If this internal melted mass burst out and cooled very quickly it became granite; that which cooled less quickly became silver, and less quickly gold; and after gold, dia­ monds were made. Said the old priest, "A diamond is a congealed drop of sunlight You know that a diamond is pure carbon, actually deposited withsunlight." As thepriest spoke A1 Hafed listened more intently. The priest told him that with a handful of diamonds he could purchase a whole county. And with a mine of diamonds he could place his children upon thrones through the influence of their great and vast wealth. -A1 Hafed heard more about diamondsand how much they were worth. He went to bed that night a poor man, not that he had lost anything, but because he was discontented, and discontented because he thought he was poor. He said, "I must have a mine of diamonds! " So he lay awake all night thinking only of diamonds. As the priest had spent the night in hisspare room, A1 Hafed woke him early. "Will you tell me where I can find dia­ monds?" The priest said, "If you find a river that runs over The wonderful, but taxing profession of motherhood is one women must choose. I liken this profession to the planting of a flower garden. There might be a day that the gardener plucks a bulb back from the soil, for on this day there are too many weeds. The bulb needs a place to grow so it might be healthy, strong and beautiful. A woman's right to clear the weeds must be reserved. The woman's right to escape the confines of her garden, (as in Steinbeck's story "Chrysanthe­ mums") must be reserved. How "Pro-Life" is a person who would have a child be brought up in a world of poverty and ill-health? Where is the woman's "life" a concern when she is forced to be a host to a parasitic potentiality? How is "life" a primary concern when a woman who has not learned to love herself is asked to love and foster another being? There will be no life for women if they are enslaved by those who wield Bibles like two-headed axes and have closets full of available coathangers. Our founding fathers said we ought to have the "right to life-" "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Life and happiness are inseparable corollaries. Also, a right presup­ poses choice. Through living , volitional beings choose. A piece of protoplasm is not a volitional being. An embryo is a potentiality. It has no"rights" because it cannot choose. To choose is to live. Embryos have the potential for life. A BY CHARLES HILT SPECIAL TO THE APPALACHIAN white sands between high mountains, in those sands you will find diamonds." "Do you really believe that there is such a river?" said the priest,"Plenty of them, all you have to do is goand find them." A1 Hafed said, "I will go!" Thus he sold his farm, collected his money and went in search of diamonds. He began at the Mountains of the Moon. Afterwards, he went around into Palestine, then wandered into Europe. At last, with all of his money spent, he found himself in rags, wretchedness and poverty. He stood alone and lonely on theshore of the bay in Barcelona, Spain, when a tidal wave came rolling in through the Pillars of Hercules. Now poor, afflicted and suffering, A1 Hafed could not resist the awful temptation to cast himself into that incom­ ing tide. He sank deep beneath its foaming crest, never to rise to life again. A1 Hafed's successor, the man to whom he had sold his farm, was out surveying his property one day near a shallow stream. As his camel put its nose down to drink, the farmer noticed a curious flash of light. Reaching into the stream, he pulled out a beautiful black stone that reflected all thecolors of the rainbow. He was so intrigued with its brilliant shimmering that he took the pebble into the house and placed it on the mantle over the fireplace. It was a few days after that, when this same Buddhist priest stopped by for a short visit. When he saw the flash of light from the mantle he rushed up in excitement,"Here is a diamond! Hereis a diamond! Has A1 Hafed returned?" "No, no. A1 Hafed has not returned and that is not a diamond. That is nothing but a stone I found in the stream which flows through the garden." The priest insisted, "But I know a diamond when I see one! That is a diamond!" Together they rushed to the garden and stirred the white sands with their fingers and found others, even more beautiful and valuable than the first Thus were discovered the diamond mines of Golconda, the most magnificent diamond mines in the history of mankind, exceeding the Kimberly in value. The great Kohmoor diamond in England's crown jew­ els and the largest crown diamond in Russia's crown jewels came from that mine. Had A1 Hafed remained at home and dug in his own garden and perhaps learned something of what diamonds look like in their raw form, instead of wretchedness and poverty he would have had acres of diamonds. So before taking any drastic measures, like running off to see the world, think twice. Perhaps there is something you could do to improve your current situation. Make certain that you've not allowed your emotions to over­ come your better judgment. I'm not advocating living in a rut, but I do recommend you search your own garden before rushing off to find something better. Remember the story of poor, misguided A1 Hafed, for beneath his very own feet were acres of diamonds. Russell Conwell's story may be found in the school library. His biography is called Russell H. Conwell and His Work, by Agnes Rush Burr. newborn can choose to take suck or not. A mother can choose to put food to her own mouth. Newborns and mothers have rights. An embryo's future life isdependent upon the placenta of its mother. We should and must subvert any right of an embryo to its mother's rights. Thus, to force the right-bearing, choice endowed mother to sacrifice her existence to a nonconscious potentiality is immoral. "Right to Life" and "Pro-Life" become ugly misnomers. These people hate life. To love life is to help ensure the right to choose one's own life and one's own happiness over the grave error of deriving duty from an arbitrary morality. This evil festers on this campus. Many of you may have seen the"Pro-Life" fliers around Appalachian.Just as I am proud to speak in this article, I am proud of the fact that these life-haters have the freedom to speak their tiny minds. However,I implore you, the lover of life, to ignore them or fight them, not with faith or force, but with the razor of truth...and happily explain to them again and again that they have the personal choice of practicing their backwards morality for themselves. They cannot think for you, nor can they live for you. They may aim Bibles and guns at you, but they cannot change you. In the end, I'll be standing next to them fighting for their right—CHOICE. the world was made.

We see the signs posted around town and we see people wearing buttons about the "November 2nd Bond Refer­ endum," but many students are unaware of what's kt stake for Appalachian and the UNC system. In a nutshell, the state of North Carolina wants to borrow money from the state budget to fund several i projects which would be beneficial to all North Carolin­ ians. $310 million would be channeled into improve­ ments ft*the 16 state university campuses, which would help Appalachian State University substantially. $250 million would be channeled into the state community college system. Caldwell Community College, which has a branch here in Boone, would benefit directly. $145 million would help provide communities all over the state with clean drinking water, and $35 million would go toward the preservation, maintenance, and possibly the wrchase of new state park lands. This concept isappeal­ ing to concerned individuals in Boone wanting to have land on Howard's Knob purchased as park land. Appalachian State would receive $23.8 million and that money would be used to construct two new academic buildings. A new math and science building has been needed for years, due to the fact that the Rankin Science building was designed to accommodate less than half of the students that currently populate those classrooms. The price tag for the first phase of that building is $15 million and the remaining $8.8 million would be used to construct a new academic support building that would house administrative offices. The buildings currently being used as academic support, such as I.G. Greer, would be reverted back to classrooms, which are also desperately needed. Our campus has grown from 4,800 students in 1963 to a current enrollment of 11,000 students. We have simply grown outof buildings on this campus. The timing of the bond is very good in that interest rates are lower than they have been in over 20 years. According to the N.C. State Treasurer, Harlan Boyles, the bond is not likely to lead to an increase in taxes. The economics of the situation make sense, but we need to act now. In five or ten years, who knows what interest rates will be like. This editorial may appear selfish because it primarily addresses the needs of this campus. Certainly clean drinking water in all communities in the state is equally as important, and the enhancement of our community colleges is also a very viable way to improve the quality of life in North Carolina. It is also necessary to preserve and protect park lands so our kids can enjoy them as we have. So regardless of how you prioritize these issues, the point is that Appalachian as well as the entire state needs your support.

I have ^L*-»ed to them for only about four years, but — ms like much longer. The first Depeche j£ tape that I bought was 1990's Violator, j've been hooked ever since. The most it concert was held at the Dean Smith in Chapel Hill, on Sept 8. This was t for me because that is where I vacation _ summer (Actually, that's where my *its live). The show started at 8 p.m. My ,<ls and I arrived around 10 p.m. (We -^iletely missed the opening act,The The), e first song of the night was Higher md. We heard this song as we were runin from the parking lot (in case any of -were wondering why we were so late, we -go drive into Durham to get some glow from Toys R Us). I got to listen to the • I aid song, Policy of Truth, as we hunted our seats. In the meantime, Dave Gahan twirling around onstage. We found our just as World in My Eyes began. Red is of light scanned the audience throughglie song. 'piking In My Shoes was the fourth song, that's when the tomfoolery and hijinks ij started. Behind Mr. Gahan were eight televi­ sion screens. The three other members of the group were above him. Behind them were two more giant screens. As the song started, a human body with a big parrot head began walking from the left of the screens. The effect was really odd because it didn't lot* like just a guy with a bird head walking on a TV screen. The body was projected from the panels in 3-D fashion. As the song concluded the bird-man exited the stage from the left side. The next songs were Behind The Wheel, Halo andStrip. There was a close-up of a girl's belly button on the two screens behind the band AsStrip progressed, the word "stripped" was written over and over again on the girl's stomach. It was a comicopia (if you will) of visual stimuli. After this song David Gahan took a break and Martin Gore took over the mike. Gore sang Condemnation and was accompanied by two gospel singers. Gore also sang Knocking on Death's Door. After these two songs, Gore and Gahan switched places again. As Gahan began sing­ ing about The Mercy In You, I thought about the urine in me, and made a mad dash to the bathroom. The urinals at the Dean Smith Centerare fascimiles of horsedrinking troughs. I mention this only because I left my shoes at my seat ('nuff said). As I was going back to my seat I saw two young women get up from my seat and leave. Moments later I realized that they had stolen my Birkenstocks. Never let a guy named Christian Abad safeguard your Birks when you go to the bathroom. The nextsong was the big one from the new album Songs of Faith and Devotion - the hit I Feel You.This song was accompanied by an intense light show. While Depeche Mode performed Never Let Me Down, an older lady in front of me turned around and asked why I had aclipboard.Since she wasdrinking liquor I told her that I was a writer for a major music magazine (You do! -editor's note). She left her seat and came to mine, and proceeded to begin rubbing my....tummy. As we say in the south, she was kind of sweeton me.There was a cascade of purple lights that almost seemed to bathe the audience during this song. After the band performed In Your Room (from its new album), they left the stage. We the audience, as a collective unit, cheered for five minutes to get an encore. The band came back out and performed its two biggest hits, Personal Jesus and then Enjoy The Silence, both of which were on the Violator album (which, by the way, rules).They again left the stage after these two songs. Written across the eight panels was"Depeche Mode," and on the two big screens above was "DM." Before the band's name flashed across the screens, the two big screens displayed close-ups of a cru­ cifix. On the eight panels behind Gahan were images of his face. The crowd was literally howling as the band came out minutes later for its second encore. This time they performed two songs from the early 80's, Flies on the Windscreen and Everything Counts. During the final mo­ ments of the song Gahan took of his shirt and threw it into the audience, aiming it carefully at the one person who wasn't paying close attention (he or she got smacked by a ren­ egade sweat rag moving at approximately 30 mph). Gahan let the audience sing the last third of Everything Counts without assis­ tance. Since I wasn't familiar with the lyrics I had to pretend to mouth the words (a7th grade chorus trick). This was the conclusion of the show. It was well worth the six hoursof driving that we had to endure in one night; the last time I had this much fun wasat the Sesame Street Icecapades (Snuffaluffagus slipped on the ice and took out most of the first row. I'm not kidding, I was in the third row and was almost decapi­ tated by his trunk). Anyway the show was incredible.

Everyone from skate-rats, to hip-hop junkies, or even clean cut college students seem to have jumped on the blunt-bandwagon. Whether they know it CM- not, these people are sporting the icon of an era that started on the down-low (discreetly) but has blown up all across the nation. The red and white Phillies Blunts logo has come to symbolize the growing trend of mari­ juana in music. In 1992, a small New York company called Not From Concentrate li­ censed and printed the logo on everything from t-shirts to baseball caps. Now Phillies Blunt's parent company, Hav-A-Tampa, is having second thoughts about lending theii logo to be the icon of such a trend. But it's out of their hands, and this trend has gone further than just blunts. Groups in vari­ ous areas of music, from hip-hop to rock and roll, have breathed new life into the legaliza­ tion movement. Everyone from Redman, the rapper whose song "How to Roll a Blunt' provides detailed instructions on how to do just that, to the Black Crowes, the rock group whose lead singer, Chris Robinson, posed on the cover of High Times smoking a joint, are voicing their support with clear and distinct references to ganja.

He has taught both in high school and at the University of Maine. After Baker received his doctorate in 1991, he decided it was "now or never" if he wanted a job full time on the college level. Baker said he doesn't like "standing up and lecturing to 200 students," and when he found the teaching job in the Watauga Program, he thought it was the job he had been looking for. Baker also enjoys running. He has run five or six days a week regularly since the late 70's. His first marathon was the Ice­ berg Marathon in March of 1980. The temeprature was 25 degrees below zero, and he had icicles hanging from his beard. Forty runners started the race and approxi­ mately 20 finished it. His best finish ever was first place in a three-mile race. His best marathon time was two hours and 57 minutes, finishing 200 out of about 4000. Baker said he usually finished in the top ten percent.

Baker also said that it was imperative for everyone to know about the Holocaust and not to forget it. "People tend to have short memories and entire generations seem to forget their pasts," said Baker. He noted that by remembering the past, it "makes us look at our society to see if we are doing some of the same things."

The winners of the five grand prizes were BrianCable(15-speedmountainbike), Brian Haskin (portable stereo), Wang Shu-Ming (Chicago White Sox jacket), Candice Jones (Appalachian sweatshirt), and Dawn Goodman ($65 Belk gift certificate.) Sixty other students were chosen to win such prizes as fanny packs, T-shirts of various designs, and backpacks. Jones, who was present during the drawing, expressed her surprise in winning one of the grand prizes. She said the promotion was great because it encouraged people to open or add to their accounts. "Letters will be sent to the ASU boxes of the winners. Also the names of the five grandprize winners will be posted in the food ser­ vices locations and in the bookstore," Langdon said. "Prizes can be collected in Trivette Hall in the Student ID Center. Winners just need to show their student IDs to claim their prizes." "We're not sure whether or not this promo­ tion has been successful, since westill need to count up the number of people who opened or added on to their accounts. We don't know yet if we'll have another promotion soon." Langdon said. "The goal of this promotion was to make students more aware of the Appalachian Express service and where it can be used." An Appalachian Express account, as well as the student's meal plan, is placed on the student's Appalachian ID card. Students may open an account or add to an existing account at the Student ID Center, open from 8 a.m.— 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. There is a $20 minimum to open or add to an account. Cash or credit card may be used. "Parents and students can add money to an account over the telephone, using a credit card," said Rawls of the ID center. "Hav­ ing an Appalachian Express account is much easier and safer than carrying cash." To report a missing card, call the ID center. If the ID center is not open, call campus security. A "stop" will be placed on the account, rendering the card useless. To restart the account, stop by the ID center. Appalachian Express accounts may be used at the University Bookstore, all the Appalachian Food Services locations, all vending machines, the student union ticket office, the Broyhill Inn & Conference Cen­ ter, and selected clothes washers and dry­ ers.

'On the Light Side' offers variety BY TONI MITCHUM REPORTER A new addition to the Welborn Hall Cafete­ ria is a special menu for health-conscious students. In years past, the only resort for students seeking a healthier menu was the salad bar. This semester, all that has changed. "Appalachian Food Services, through 'On the Light Side,' now provides some unique alternatives for customers who want some­ thing different," said manager Pat Weaver. Along with the salad bar, the new menu offers other low-fat and meadess items. There are a variety of items that will tempt the taste buds of any palate. Dishes such as Cajun red beans and rice, meatless spaghetti, stir-fry, and garden burgers are offered. The menu, of course, varies daily. Weaver said that today's student is much more health conscious, but wants good tasting food op­ tions. All entree item ingredientsare displayed so the customers know what they are con­ suming and purchasing. "I personally like the idea of seeing what exactly is going into what I'm eating. It makes me more awareof the healthy and unhealthy choices I make," said one student. According to cashier Vicky Greene, "There has been a very positive response, especially from those who are vegetarians and health-conscious. I asked some stu­ dents when they went through the line today and they said it was their favorite line." If you are trying to make healthy choices, look no further. "On the Light Side" is open for lunch Monday through Friday, from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. It is located in the East Wing of Welborn Hall Cafeteria. The Warehouse I I I I J 264-4935 Tribute paid to Alcohol Awareness Week BY KIT OLSON GUEST COLUMNIST Appalachian will pay tribute to Na­ tional Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week this year with many fun and informative activities sponsored by sev­ eral student organizations. This na­ tional week of celebration will be held Oct 17-21. The headline event for this week is the ADAPT-sponsored band party featuring Marblehead on Friday, Oct. 22. Bring yourselves,your friends, and leave the alcohol behind. The fun will focus on great food, mocktails and of course, great tunes. Are you aware that North Carolina has become one of only ten states to lower the legal limit for blood alcohol content to .08 percent for drinking and driving? This change was made be­ cause evidence shows that drivers with a BAC of .08 are much more likely to be involved in collisions resulting in injuries or death. You might wonder just how little or how much alcohol it takes to reach this new legal limit SGA has planned a program to educate you on thisissue during Alcohol Aware­ ness Week. On Wednesday, Oct. 20 the Boone police will provide a breathalyzer dem­ onstration from 12 noon until 2 p.m. at the Sanford mall. Come out to this program to see and hear for yourself just how dangerous any level of drink­ ing and driving can be, and learn more about the new DWI law. People living in residence halls will have more opportunities for fun and learning during our Alcohol Aware­ ness Week. The Office of Residence Life has arranged to have a variety of programs in the halls involving the Campus Resident Student Association, ADAPT, and the resident assistants. Look for announcements and posters for events in your residence hall. The Quinn Center is a great place to learn about health and fitness. That will be especially true on Wednesday, Oct 20, when the Quinn Center Health Fair will be offered. It will be spon­ sored by the Appalachian Wellness Center. Come out to the Quinn be­ tween 3:30-8:30 p.m. and take advan­ tage of helpful resources including a fitness evaluation, nutrition evaluation, cholesterol check, and wellness and substance abuse information. The purpose of National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week is to provide members of the college community a chance to step back and look at our relationships to alcohol.

OCTOBER 12-14 • 1993 Schofield wins four-vear term Appalachian turns out to send student to council BY AMY BEACH ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR This past Tuesday, Boone voters made history as they elected the first-ever Appala­ chian State University student to the Boone Town Council. Voters also elected two in­ cumbents, Louise Miller and Ben Suttle. James Hunter Schofield, a 22-year-old Ap­ palachian senior, led the ticket with 776 votes and will serve a four-year term. Schofield edged out Suttle by four votes, and Miller ran third with 678. Suttle received a four-year term, and Miller will return to the council for another two-year term. All three winning candidates earned the 673 majority votes needed to secure a seat on the council. No run-off election will be held. Incumbent council member Jim Dugger lost a close race with Miller, securing 660 votes. Mickey Watson took fifth with 521 votes. Former council member Bill Rucker placed sixth with 494 votes and Lloyd Turrisi got 133 votes. Incumbent Mayor Velma Bumley ran unop­ posed and was re-elected with 1,045 votes. According to The Watauga Democrat, only eighteen percent of Boone voters cast ballots in the town election (1,700 of 9,400). Much of Schofield's support came from the 2nd and 3rd Precincts, where a large number of Appalachian students vote. Second Pre­ cinct votes were cast at the Appalachian State University College of Business Building and 3rd Precinct ballots were cast at Appalachian's Farthing Auditorium. The number of votes Schofield received at these two precincts was greater than the total number of votes cast at the two precincts in the past three elections. Schofield said, "The turnout is a real testa­ ment to the students. They overcame the odds §j|:' BY AMY BEACH ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR Student Hunter Schofield (right) led the town council elections with 776 votes, followed closely by incumbent Ben Suttle (below left) with 772 votes. Incumbent Louise Miller (above left) was also elected with 678 votes.

Suttle told the Appalachian Monday he was not surprised that Schofield had won a seat on the council. "I knew he had the votes from the environ­ mental area," Suttle said. "I was a little surprised he was the top vote-getter." Sutde also said, "I don't know what he understands about city government or w hat he has prepared himself for. I'm sure it will take a couple of months for everyone toget used to working together." "Commitment" run campaign BOARD OF GOVERNORS AP­ PROVES NEW PROGRAMS : Friday, the N.C.

' WEEKDAY EDITION APPLACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE • NC 28608 Greek lobbies get cleared out A week ago today. Hunter Schofield stood outside the Appalachian State University College of Business nervously asking friends and supporters how they thought things were going inside the polling place. According to Schofield, no one even began to anticipate that he would lead the ticketforBooneTown Council. Schofield received four more votes than his nearest competitor, Ben Suttle,in therace for a seat on the Boone Town council. "You subtract any one individual's contri­ bution and we would not have won," Schofield said. "Winning by four votes reaffirms theimportance of every single per­ son who voted in the election." According to Schofield, what is almost as exciting as winning is the fact that his cam­ paign never ran a single newspaper ad or TV commercial.

"Our entire effort was by word of mouth, and it was notone ran with money, but commitment." Schofield's parents solicited votes door to door for three days, and according to Schofield, they were embraced by the Boone community.

Schofield said he is undecided on whether he will continue in politics, although he does want to be in a position to effect change.

Convenience store items are packaged. Cars take gasoline. Ink pens are plastic. AA batteries have mercury in them, and the list keeps going and going and going... like a big pink bunny rabbit. If you want to wear tie dye tshiits and pretend you are in the sixties, that is fine. Remember Woodstock and the acres of farmland that were ruined there. If you want plastic bags at the grocery store, that's fine too. Just do not think you are doing mother earth big favors. Things that seem to be the right idea are really ethical snow jobs. I can see the greedy company executives now. "Let's give them plastic bags! They will think they are saving trees, heh, heh, heh." Is it better to have open eyes and contaminate the environment on purpose? I say yes! The environment is going to suffer in direct proportion to the amount of people who live here on our earth. Whether we chose paper and kill trees, or plastic and kill fish does not matter. As for me,I think I'll just get another six pack of Gloppie Cola, another plastic bag of cheezie fries, and in a couple of months, a real nice spruce tree to hang plenty of lights and garland from. An early, but very hearty Merry Christmas to all you environmentalists! ur readers write about objectivism, methodology and Howard's Knob... BORDER'S METHODOLOGY IS QUESTIONABLE Borders, i writing in response to your articlein theSept. 30 ion of The Appalachian, entitled, "Objectivism — ice of life or death."I will not comment directly on ur conclusion (which I am quite certain will draw its ' shiare of controversial response), namely that it is fht" to build houses upon Howard's Knob, but ler on your methodology in reaching that conclufeel that it is important to respond to your article, is is the first time that I have ever attempted to Wer an article in The Appalachian,(although I have • that some articles warranted aresponse). However, sc i<led to do so this time because you, Mr. Borders, re fallen victim to a dangerous intellectual trap, »ch I will elucidate forthrightly in order to prevent ers from following your lead. ie term "objectivism" is the name that you coin to ibe what you consider your set of beliefs to be, as ^ as the belief system of Ayn Rand. The first t>lem begins here. In our culture, the culture of the st-,"to be objective" implies a certain deterministic ^sality based upon immutable assumptions. To"look I>roblem objectively" means to see the problem as "^ally" is. So, by professing that your "philosophical *^view" is an objectivist approach, you are effecV maintaining that Reason (with a capital "R," as *he objectivist, Reason stands as an entity autonofrom any individual who may find Reason mani*^<1 in his thoughts) dictates your thoughts to be ^ssary, the only thoughts which are reasonably ljst_rued from the situation at hand. ^Objectivism is associated with science, where one '^ical situation necessitates a causal reaction that not have had any other possible outcome under feven set of variables. Is there ever any record of ^ Newton witnessing an apple falling up as he sat the apple tree? ^jectivism runs into trouble, however, when it ipts to impose its determinism on the field of ^s. Determinism may describe relations of matter H* ^tter, but the human mind and its relation to matter other-human minds), becomes a much more ^ iguous issue. In your article you declare in regards "Miics and/or politics, "Playing by the rules is the ^ "Way to win," but you overlook thefact that the role *^®iics, in its broadest sense, is to figure out just what You proceed, however, oblivious in your certainty, by deciding that to the objectivist mind, "The end (does not) justify the means," (the puzzling parenthesis are yours and how this conclusion is related to the aforementioned affirmations remains a mystery to me). Are you a pacifist then, Mr. Borders, or do you feel that killing and destroying property in the case of war, for example, is a "viable interest," an end in itself? That might be contradictory to your assertion that, "Happiness is a requirement of life,"? Is it rational that the end does not justify the means? The question of happiness also poses an interesting prob­ lem for you, Mr. Borders. You claim that, "Happiness is realizing a virtuous goal"; of course, then, one's moral task becomes the search for what a "virtuous goal" is, as con­ trasted with goals thatare not virtuous. You seem tothink that building houses on a natural area is virtuous, whereas others may think that maintaininga forested land, the habitat of men and wildlife alike, may be a more virtuous pursuit for the quality of life, in that it includes all of the members of this community, not only the few lucky enough to live on that hill. Be that as it may, the fact remains that the question of "virtuous goals" is ambiguous. Unfortunately for objectiv­ ism, once one defines just what a virtuous pursuit is, s/he is no longer being objective, (if I say so it is subjective, not objective). To think that Mrs. Rand's laissez faire beliefs are somehow the only rational approach to reality misses the point that her beliefs are what she said they were, not Reason but her reason! With respect to your assertion that one virtuous goal is the right to choose without governmental restraint as long as, Leave your car while in class! Across from Campus Appalachian BP 100 Hardin Street • 264-5914 ECIAL 4qts oil & Filter th this coupon $14.99 plus tax "that does not ask the sacrifice of another," consider this: if the government gives one man the freedom to do one thing, that freedom then becomes a leverage point for his exploitation of others or of nature. In the example of Howard's Knob, for one man to have the governmentgranted right to build on the mountain overlooking all of Boone, means that the whole of Boone, 18,000-f- people during the university session, must be oppressed by that eyesore. One person's freedom is his/her neighbor's en­ slavement, and for this reason (as well as others) ethics is not a topic which can effectively be discussed in "objec­ tive" terms. For one final point, your article lacks logical coherence. You move from one assumption to the next without explaining, for example, how altruism which you define to be the,"most immoral thing one can conceive," is related to starvation in Africa which you then attribute to "the embracing of unreason and tradition (tribalism)." Also, when the ends do not justify the means, it is possible that you believe in, "placing nothing above the actions of achieving happiness," (happiness as an end). Throwing out foundationless assumptions does not establish a philo­ sophical position so, at best, your article seems to me to simply be a very subjective ground for an overtly conser­ vative agenda. "Enjoy and learn." John Kenneth Galbraith Every voice must have its forum The changing composition of our society and the associated growing awareness of multiple worldviews and increasing acknowledgement of a variety of valid perspectives presents us as socially conscious individu­ als with difficult decisions and choices. As a result, at every turn, in every phrase, within any media construction, there lies the potential to offend someone. Some men are offended by the "Tell Some­ one" poster campaign at Appalachian. Some women were offended by a silhouette which appeared in an APPS ad in this newspaper. Many people are offended by ideas expressed in any number of publications, on television, and in the movies. To be sure, almost anything has the potential tooffend someone—particu­ larly if that someone takes an active role in being offended. We must take some responsibility for our environ­ ment. We are not victims of the media, as many would have us believe. As individuals, we do have some choices about the media we pursue; we are not prison­ ers of television or hostages of magazines. If we repeatedly seek out perspectives which we know will offend and enrage us, then we are in part responsible for being offended. Social workers probably shouldn't read the National Review to validate their perspectives. Members of the KKK probably won't find affirmation in the songs of Sister Souljah. The perspectives made available by Sister Souljah and the National Review have the potential to offend someone. Should we say, then, that Sister Souljah can no longer record and that the National Review can no longer publish? Or should potentially offended con­ sumers explore their many options and chooseZ Maga­ zine and Skrewdriver? Does the potential offensiveness of a position cancel the rights of the people who hold that position? Where do these rights begin (and end)? These questions are particularly difficult for groups of people whose worldviews are mutually exclusive— | the KKK and Sister Souljah, for example. Thesegroups | may agree on nothing—but they still have a great deal in common: each group will argue the validity and truth in its perspective while at the same time denying any truth or validity in the opposing perspective. There can be only one answer: every perspective holds truth for someone; every voice has a forum— however, not every forum is the appropriate place for every voice. Publications, networks, politicians and ministers choose their messages. Each of us as individuals must choose our messengers.

I'm sure this October will be full of more Brave drama, because they always have a knack for making things interesting. This is a time that Braves fans must cherish, In this area, kids that love baseball grow up watching the Braves on TBS. For my genera tion, this wasn't a very pleasant experience. During the '80s, I had to watch a terrible Braves team in the prime of my adolescence. They won the pennant in '82, but after that it went completely downhill. It's a wonder how any Braves fans that watched them in that decade can still bare to watch baseball of any sort Dale Murphy was awesome, but he couldn't raise the dead. He had no supporting cast whatsoever. We remember the Glenn Hubbards and theBruce Benedicts, and we try to block out the '80s, like it never even hap­ pened. Then came the '90s. We are now in the Era of the Braves. Hey, you think they're good now? Just wait. It will be scary; they have some great players coming up through their farm system. Ever heard of Chipper Jones? You will. The Braves wiU take, thejvhole thing thk year. They will beat the Phillies,and then will triumph over either Chicago or Toronto in the World Series.

NEWS DEPARTMENT STANT EDITOR: WRITERS: Appalachian DAWN MCGUIRE AMY BEACH DANE PERRY ROBERT ROBERTSON WEEKDAY EDITION BY GINGER WOOD REPORTER A panel of professors and'community leaders discussed the advantages and disad­ vantages of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Wednesday evening. The panel included economics, political sci­ ence and anthropology professors and an area businessman. The discussion, which was co-sponsored by the Economics Club and the Political Science Club involved a large number of students, faculty and community members. Heather Daniels, the president of the Eco­ nomics Club, welcomed everyone and an­ nounced that each member of the panel would speak ten minutes. The first speaker, Dr. Richard Milam, eco­ nomics professor, discussed the "case for free trade." He stated the benefits of free trade and said the elimination of barriers to trade may encourage firms to locate in the U.S. "NAFTA will be a good agreement for the U.S," said Milam. The second speaker, economics professor Dr. Fred Wallace spoke on "What would NAFTA do?" He explained that if passed, NAFTA would gradually benefit barriers to trade between the U.S., Mexico and Canada. He spoke of the benefits of NAFTA, stressing that the effects on workers would not be harsh. "If enacted, it is expected that NAFTA will the cause the displacement of no more than five hundred thousand workers," said Wallace. Speaking on the "environmental concerns of NAFTA," Dr. Harvard Ayers, anthropology professor and member of the Sierra Club, stressed his concerns about NAFTA's effects on the environment He said that the biggest problem environmentalists have with NAFTA is the threat to U.S. laws for environmental protection. "NAFTA, since it is so weak in environmen­ tal protection,could actually defeat the goals of free trade," stated Ayers. Mr. Thurman Johnson, president of Ribbon Textiles of Boone, spoke on "Are American jobs at risk?" Johnson congratulated the large number of students that came to participate and stressed his concern over the loss of local jobs if N AFTA is passed. "I'm concerned about people's mothers, sisters and cousins that are in labor intensive jobs," said Johnson. The last speaker, Dr. Renee Scherlen of the political science and criminal justice depart­ ment spoke on the "Political Stakes for Mexico." She gave a different perspective on how NAFTA would effect not the U.S., but Mexico. She said that Mexico was moving toward "true, procedural democracy"and that free trade would aid in that movement "Mexican democratization is an important thing to look at when examining NAFTA, " said Scherlen. A brief rebuttal period followed thespeeches in which the panelists could bring forth dis­ agreements and give their opinions. Then, members of the audience submitted questions for answer by panel members. Jeff Brittain, a senior and an economics major, said he attended the discussion be­ cause he was interested in NAFTA and wanted to be more informed. " I got a broader perspective. I came in undecided and now I'm for it," Brittain said. Students Mink' up with local children BY STACEY STILLS REPORTER Time is running out to sign up for the LINK, a drop-out prevention program that pairs Appalachian students with children around Watauga County in grades K-8. Volunteers meet with the students for two hours or more every week, depending on their schedules. The meetings are at the students' schools during school hours The time is spent in academic tutoring and enrichmentactivities. All volunteers are care­ fully screened and are thoroughly trained before being placed with children. Volunteers also develop close relation­ ships with the children. The program al­ lows Appalachian students to work within the community, not only to enrich the lives See STUDENTS page 2 College education: A shrinking opportunity? COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE A record one in six college freshman had major concerns about the spiraling cost of education in 1992, according to a survey conducted by the Higher Education Research Institute at the University of California-Los Angeles. The results reveal the highest concern over money by freshmen in nearly 30 years, re­ searchers say. Anxious students are scrambling for fi­ nancial aid, grants, loans, work-study posi­ tions and part-time jobs to pay the bills. Despite warnings that grades suffer when students work more than 20 hours a week, many are working well over 20 hours to stay in school. It is not just coming up with thousands of dollars in tuition, supplies and high student fees that freshmen are coping with, but the increasing academic demand to own a personal computer or word processing system, college officials say. In addition, students are opening wallets for expensive textbooks,some that cost as much as $75—or higher. The cost of 100 widely used freshman and sophomore textbooks has risen 91.5 percent in the past 10 years, according to "Campus Marketplace," the newsletter for The National Association of College Stores. It is difficult to know which students give up on college because of financial difficulties, say educators, because often the problem is hidden. However, officials say col lege completion rates are closely tied to family incomes. "You see students who lea ve for what appear to be academic problems, but the real reasons may have to do with finances, or lack of them," said Tendaji Ganges, director of educational services and programs at Northern Illinois cut educational funds dramatically, and the University in De Kalb. federal Pell Grant program has been reduced.

U.S. ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR YELTSIN This past weekend, the Clinton ad­ ministration said it would support the use of force by Russian president Boris Yeltsin to quell violence in the Rus­ sian capital. On Sunday thousands of Yeltsin's opponents armed themselves and attempted to break the blockade surrounding the parliament, capture the mayor's office, and seize control of the government-run broadcasting system. The U.S. has been officially informed that Russian special faces are converging on Moscow with |orders to return fire they encounter. "I am still convinced that the United I States must support Yeltsin and the process of bringingabout free and fair elections," President Clinton said. "We can not afford to be in the posi­ tion of...backing off or giving any encouragement to people whoclearly want toderail theelection process and I are not committed to reform in Rus­ sia." The violence reported in theRus­ sian capital is the worst since the Bolshevik revolution in 1917. AMERICANS KILLED IN SOMALIA Five Americans were killed in a clash between U.N. forces and rebels led by Mohamed Farrah Aidid. Two U.S. Army Blackhawk helicopters were shot down and several soldiers were wounded. Earlier in the day a mine explosion killed a Somali UX employee and wounded three U.S. Marines. The latest rounds of combat are centered around U.N.attempts to cap­ ture Aidid who is blamed for organiz­ ing attacks that have killed 56 U.N. peace keepers in the last four months.

FULL SERVICE good of the whole family. So when the student is faced with borrowing money for school, or getting a job for money for school, he's discouraged," said Ganges. "The college environ­ ment is very challenging. All of those things impinge on the student's abil­ ity to stick with it So the first time they get a nasty little letter from the bursar, they're gone." According to Mortenson, family income has everything to do with whether a student stays in school or not. In the past 22 years, four-year college completion rates for students who are no older than 24 show signifi­ cant growth among students from families with incomes over $60,000; however, there has been no progress in the completion rate among stu­ dents from families with an income of $38,000 or under, he said. Attempting to put a child through college in the '90s can financially devastate a family without resources, said Mortenson, who noted that he believes college is becoming an insti­ tution for upper-income students.

There are those who 1*1 like to stop Mr. Green from developing the land that ^-^tight on Howard's Knob. They feel thatoverdevelop- of that hallowed ground will turn it into an eyesore. , look at the development around Boone and want to , ^nt the condo skyline disease from spreading. These ^le put up signs, attend meetings, and try to sway the l^ions of those who are paid to have them. To some _ fe, this sort of action is important, ere are those who do not care if Mr. Green develops, people are transients who will leave Boone after the ^ atory five years or so. It is pretty, but it is none of my ixmess, they say. They like the Knob, but aren't going to j evolved. That is fine for them, i r»ally. there is a third group that believes Mr. Green tjne right to start an ostrich farm or build a space shuttle tiere if he wants to. These people point to the fact that he bought the land; it is his, and everyone else should just live with whatever he wants to do. They correctly point out that anyone who seriously wants to prevent Mr. Green's plans merely needs to offer him enough money to rethink his priorities. They say that if anyone wants to prevent building on that land, they need only own it themselves. That is the position they value. Nobody argues the fact that it all comes down to a matter of rights. Does Mr. Green have the right to build as he sees fit on his own land? Does the town of Boone have the right to regulate his construction? Do all of the residents and others that find fault with the development plan have any rights at all to protect the skyline? These rights have been trampled. I find it odd that the town of Boone seems to have no problem with the development on Howard's Knob. They certainly passed the smoking regulation with little reser­ vation! I am not asking for much, but consistency would be nice. Like manyof the students here in Boone, I am registered here to vote. Do I vote for a council member that appears to be for, or against personal freedom? That is the real issue. It seems to be unfair to regulate the local restau­ rants to make major changes in their businesses (be­ cause smoking can be offensive), while simultaneously permitting the construction on Howard's knob (which also could be offensive). It seems to show that the powers that be are interested in one thing and one thing only. This thing (besides rights) that the construction has in common with the smoking ban is money, specifically, short term money. This money will come from the construction that will likely take place to comply with both the smoking ordinance and to provide a residence on the Knob. Certainly there will be no tourism benefit, as the potentially unsightly blemish on Howard's Knob will not draw people here. The smoking ordinance will do nothing but cause businesses living near the edge to topple over. Who are the powers that be? Do rights mean anything to them? Are they interested in a community thfll residents can love, or only an income for certain seg­ ments of business? 1 will vote.

Professors Greene, Rowe and Walker graciously agreed to participate before they knewof this rather nominal remunera­ tion, and did so despite their heavy teaching schedules and involvement with research which is done on their own time. They indeed represent those who, in your words, "when considering matters of importance, have the capacity and integrity to look far beyond that which is only consistent with self-interest and personal agendas." While council members appreciate your position on the Student Activity Center, we find it regrettable that such an issue would be used to hamper the efforts of all the faculty involved in planning the 1993 Fall Weekend Institute. Under­ mining this pilot program will only serve to undermine the humanities and the interests of Appalachian State University and of the region; it will not affect future decisions regarding the Student Activity Center since the Humanities Program is not involved in them. Mary Ann Carroll, Ph.D. Director pro tern, Appalachian Humanities Program Bike lanes for Boone? To the Editor I am a teacher at Watauga High School, a native of Watauga County, and I support Hunter Schofield for Boone Town Council. I have worked with Hunter during the last several months as a member of "Friend's of Howard's Knob." I am impressed with his leadership, experience, and integrity. As a native with a passionate and incurable love for the Appalachian Mountains, I am disturbed by some of the development that scars and blemishes these irreplacflble masterpieces of nature. Hunter has a plan which will preserve the visual integrity of our mountainsides while preserving the rights of landowners. If we truly love our mountains, we must have a town council member who can see beyond short-term economic growth to the eco­ nomic well-being, rights, and needs of future genera­ tions. Hunter Schofield is such a candidate. Many of my friends and co-workers enthusiastically endorse Hunter Schofield because of his traffic manage­ ment and alternative transportation plan. Many of them are bicyclists or have children who are, but at present there are virtually no bike lanes in our community. Hunter's plan toexpand theGreen way is excellent Since it would join small strips of unusable land with a few additional pieces, the Greenway would provide walking/ jogging/biking trails all over the community at virtually no cost Whatadeal! What an improvement in safety and in our quality of life! Hunter Schofield is NOT a novice as a community leader. One of his many accomplishments was aS an organizing member of opposition to the Student Activity Center. It takes courage and persistence to successfully buck Raleigh. He has had experience with town govern­ ment as a member of a citizens' committee to establish a new Town Plan. Furthermore, he proposed legislation to the Town Council for expansion of the Greenway, ahd it was passed. Please vote Hunter Schofield for Boone Town Council on October 5. We need him now.

One of the best ways we can begin this process is to become involved in the decision-making that affects us. As citizens of the United States, we are entitled to a voice in our government. We also have an implied obligation to be informed about the issues j our government addresses. We must take our informed opinions to the polls and make our voices j heard. While we are students, we must set the pace for our political actions throughout our lives. If we don't start voting now, then we probably never will. Today is an election day in Boone—and student voter turnout will probably be at its usual low i level. We all talk about our disgust with the apathy | prevalent among students on campus, but when we have the opportunity to make a difference, we just don't do it. The upcoming elections are another opportuni ty for us to voice our opinions. Every one of us is ; obligated to learn about the issues on that ballot, ; and to make decisions that will likely directly affect us. In the case of some of the upcoming issues, we'll be asked to make choices the repurcussions of which will be felt for generations.

All politics begin at the local level; local issues and elections are every bit as important as state and national ones. Vote today. Skip lunch if you have to.

Ortiz menan eclectic range of groups - P-Funk, r^Jeville Brothers, The Meters, Robert ' and noteworthy mix of influences helps in providing some new ways of looking at Widespread's output. Ortiz mentioned the West Coast (San Fran); Boulder, Colorado; Atlanta and Athens; New York; and Oregon as some favorite places to play (thus far). He stated that the band is on he stressed the group's dedication to live performance - keeping the interactions within the group, and between the group and the audience spontaneous during performances. Ortiz also provided a bit of background on the band. The two guitarists (John Bell and Michael Houser) began playing together Kindness of the World has a great deal going for it. The album as a whole is very fluid, and all the individual cuts seem to come together to make a larger, more intricate piece of work. It is beautiful in a very simple, almost acoustic way. The entire album was cut in one room of a house in New Orleans. The sound is not quite country. It has more of a Jimmy Buffett, John Mellencamp feel to it in places, while at other times it pushes on the bounds of folk. It may sound like a confusing mix in this review, but trust me, it works. If you take my advice and listen to this tape, you may have to just grin and bear it through the first cut, One Day When the Weather is Warm . It is not a bad song, but it did drag a little. In this one Henry throws in what seems to be his rendition of Bob Dylan, something that may excite some people, but it turned me off. Henry picks up the tempo with Fireman's Wedding. Although I did not pick up much about a wedding, I liked the upbeat, contem­ porary country sound of this one. The next cut, She Always Goes, was, in my opinion, the best one on the tape. It wasa very tender, touching song that refuses to fall into the trap of being just another "my woman done went and left me crying in my beer" song. The best lyric had to be "We all have dreams that fade God knows/ and in mine she always goes ". This Close to You displayed the lyrical excellence of this tape most clearly. But the greatest thing about this cut was the superior talent of drummer Mark LaFalce, who ac­ cording to Henry, was allowed in the sessions "the use of both feet but only one hand when he played, just to keep us all even." The title track. Kindness of the World , featured the vocal talents of Victoria Will­ iams. The beautiful harmony of their work complemented the beautiful lyrical and musi­ cal style of this song. The only problem I had was the fact that there was just too much twang. Third Reel offers more of the best lyrical work on the album. The song is filled with deep, insightful lines such as: "the frost has warmed up everything somehow " and "you can never leave nothing behind you." And if nothing else, it would be a great song if you wanted to waltz. When I Flew Over Our House Last Night around 1980, hitting bars and coffeehouses around Athens as a duo (the two were students at University of Georgia). Various other mem­ bers joined over the years, with John Hermann (keyboards) the most recent addition, in 1991. Athens has been the home base for dozens of rock acts(REM, B52's, Pylon, Barbecue Kill­ ers, 86, Dreams So Real and The Indigo Girls are some of the most hotewOrthy) over the years - at peak around 1988, there were around 100 bands based in and playing in the area- in a town only 2 to 3 times the size of Boone. Ortiz briefly alluded to some similarities be­ tween Boone and Athens; I know that a hun­ dred bands isn't one of them. Ortiz noted that once an area acquires a reputation as being a "hotbed" of musical activity, many musicians are drawn to the area, and a reputation begins to build - Chapel Hill is another, and closer, example of this phenomenon. As a minor technical note, Ortiz commented that the bassist (Dave Schools) did not usually use a fretless bass in performance ("although he probably would like to"). The fredess sound is fairly prominent on its latest release, Everyday - Ortiz emphasized the fact that "you can try out a lot of things in the studio," thus the unique bass sound. Widespread Panic will begin pre-production of tracks for its next studio release on January 10. Ortiz said they will work on new material for about three weeks, with actual recording scheduled for March. Results should be seen by Spring. jmg L DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR JODI TALLEY - ASSISTANT Help!

TERRANT - ASSISTANT To be a child again •• • BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR The other day I was sitting in English class, trying to ignore the pain of my hand cramping up while I worked on a timed assignment As my mind scrambled to come up with sentence after sentence, I began hearing high-pitched screams com­ ing from the outside of the window. The voices obviously weren't coming Irom students. Instead, they were coming from the children playing in the nursery school playground beside Sanford Hall. My concentration immediately decided to take a break, even though I wasn't even close to concluding the paper. Throwing down my pen, I decided that I was never that loud as a child, and I certainly would have had more consideration for people taking tests...who did they think they were any­ way? It wasn't until I got outside and stopped to watch the kids play that I realized how fascinating they were. They seemed oblivi­ ous to the college students walking by, choos­ ing to remain in their own little world of tricycles and red wagons. It surprised me that the college students were more inter­ ested in the children than the other way around This is probably beacause we rarely see children on campus outside of the Brock nursery school. When we do see them, we feel compelled to watch them. It occurred to me that I was slightly envi­ ous of the fun they were having. Their lives seemed so simple compared to mine, yet there are several similarities in our daily routines. One example of a similarity is that both the children and students go to the library. However, students go through those glass doors with an attitude of mixed frustration, motivation, and dread. The children go through the doors gleeful because it's storytime. They are all herded to the bottom floor, holding each others' mittened hands. They are fascinated with the big stuffed mountain bear, but are afraid of the conse­ quences if they try topet it. While a librarian reads stories to them about bunnies and trains, college students try tomake it through another paragraph in theireconomics books. Another similarity we have with the nurs­ ery school kids is that we both love to drive at dangerously fast speeds. While we zoom down highway 421, the kids pedal wildly around their own little tricycle road. Their teachers usually stand helplessly and yell for them to slow down, which reminds me of my mother in the passenger seat of my car. The kids even have accidents like we do, which usually result in someone crying be­ cause he was knocked off of his tricycle. The only difference here between the chil­ dren and college students is that the children never speed past a trooper hiding behind a bush. There arc definitely many luxuries we relinquish as we grow up. The primary luxury is, of course, a forced naptime. In nursery school the teacher used to threaten us if we didn' t at least pretend tosleep on our mats. Could you imagine one of our profes­ sors standing in front of class and saying, now it's naptime, so I don't want to see ANY open eyes looking around the room." As children we certainly took sleep for granted. Maybe we should start whispering through the playground fence: "Hey kids, CHERISH your naptimes!" while we walk by. Another thing that we've given up with age is the ability to act on every thought and feeling. As adults, we have to supress the desire to say things like "I don't want to sit beside him because he's ugly." As kids, when someone made us angry we simply gave them a big shove and ran off before the teacher spotted us. Wouldn't it feel good to do this to the roommate who keeps borrow ing your favorite sweater without asking? I suppose we shouldn't complain that much. After all, we don't have to ask permission to go to the bathroom anymore. And if we really had the urge to act like a five-year-old, under reasonable circum­ stances we probably wouldn't be stopped. We need to get in touch with our childhood years to release some of the pressure that's always on us. When we need to, we can grow up. Besides, we get to pet the stuffed mountain bear in the library whenever we feel the urge to. �3ecKy Fuller tells kids from the Early Learning Center to "put on their library voices" as they enter the ibrary to see a movie.

Freshman APPALACHIAN GETS FIRST WIN: A late comeback propelled ASU to a 1-1 Southern Conference record and marked the first win of the season for the Mountaineers, (photo by Paul Lampe) starting quarterback Gerard Hardy was begin­ ning to move Appalachian's option offense when he was forced out of the game with a rib injury. In relief for the Mountaineers was sopho­ more Scott Satterfield, who had not seen any on-field action since the season-opening loss at North Carolina A&T. Satterfield continued Hardy's drive and hit j unior spl it end Don B1ue for what appeared to be a touchdown pass, but was called back on an ASU penalty. The Mountaineers settled for a 37-yard field goal by Ferguson to whittle into the ETSU lead, 16-3. Appalachian's stingy defense again took center stage, forcing East Tennessee to at­ tempt a punt from their own end-zone. ETSU punter Cory Collins elected to step out of the end zone for a safety and a 16-5 lead, for fear of a blocked punt and an Appalachian touch­ down. After a 20-yard return by Blue, Satterfield looked deep and found senior flanker Ray Gama for a 53-yard bomb to the ETSU fouryard-line. On the next play, junior tailback Chip Hooks rumbled in for the touchdown. After a Buccaneer penally on a two-point conversion attempt,freshman fullback Damon Scott, who did not have a college carry before Saturday, plowed through to narrow the gap 16-13. On the next possession, ETSU backupquarterback Billy Daves fumbled a snap, which was recovered by Appalachian defensive end Vinson Fraley at the visitor's 31-yard-line. The Mountaineers again drove the ball ef­ fectively on the ground, culminating in Scott's two-yard touchdown dash for a 20-16 lead. The ASU defense again answered the call, as comerback Matt Stevens picked off Daves' errant pass to seal the victory for the Moun­ taineers. Hooks highlighted the ASU offense with 122 yards and a touchdown in thirty carries, while Scott added 31 yards to go with his first points as a Mountaineer. Appalachian State head coach Jerry Moore expressed his pleasure with the team's play: "I'm relieved for the players and I'm proud of the effort they gave today. After four straight losses, a big, easy win would have been nice— but there are no easy wins in the Southern Conference and we know that." Senior linebacker Brent David echoed Moore's relief: 'This win feels great. We've got a lot of young guys around here who had never won a college game.

The Lady Apps defeated UNC-Charlotte,4-0, on Sept. 25 and dropped a match on Sept. 26 to Brevard, 4-1. After getting off to a slow start in the first half against the Lady 49ers, the Lady Apps notched two late first-half goals. Aundrea Clark opened the scoring in the 44th minute on a break-away, and Celeste Jenkins added another just 35 seconds later. Clark scored a second time in the 64th minute and Amy Powers added a penalty kick in the 73rd minute. Ivy Young and Kelley Crosby com­ bined in goal for the shutout. Appalachian outshot the Lady 49ers 13-2. The match against Brevard, the secondranked NJCAA team in the country, was a different story, with the Lady Apps ending up on the short end of a 4-1 score. Brevard was playing in its ninth match of the season, while Appalachian was involved in only their second. Melissa Mcintosh socred first for Brevard on a direct kick in the 23rd minute of play.

The Mountaineers out shot Furman 12-7, but they could not pick up the upset,as Furman's defense did not back down in overtime. The loss was the first for the Mountaineers at home They are 1-1 overall in overtime games so far. Furman puts their unbeaten con­ ference record on the line October 6 against VMI, while the Mountaineers travel to Chapel Hill to take on UNC October 6 and to Georgia Southern on October 10. The next home game for Appalachian will be on October 12 against Liberty. keeper Stacie Kuhr sailed over the Lady App defense. Kathy Fischer added an unassisted goal in the 71st minute and Mcintosh closed out the scoring for Brevard on an unassisted goal in the 82nd minute of play. Aundrea Clark scored the only Appalachian goal of the match on a penalty kick. "We actually played much better against Brevard than we did against UNC-Charlotte," said Appalachian Head Coach Bob Goddard. "We are capable of improving, and we must get better if we are going to have a successful season. It is still early in the season and we are learning to play as a team. We need to get a little more aggressive, win the ball in the air, and challenge our opponents' defense. When we can do that, we will be very good." Appa­ lachian closed out its home season with a 4-1 win over Davidson on Sunday. With a family weekend crowd of about 200 on hand, Carolyn Mahoney opened up the scoring for the Lady Apps in the game's 28th minute after a cross from senior Erica Freas. Freas notched the second goal for the Lady Mountaineers in the 35th minute after Tammy Smith sent a long ball into the Lady Wildcats' end. It was Freas' first game this season after a long recovery from knee surgery. The second-half provided more of the same, with Kathleen Murray scoring on a crossing pass from Colleen Aldridge in the 54th minute. Freshman Denny Crane closed out thescoring for the Lady Apps in the 62nd minute with an assist from Mahoney. Shiny Purusholhamad scored the Lady Wildcat's only goal in the 68th minute. "John Cox and Matt Huntsman have worked all week on finishing the attack," said Appa­ lachian Head Coach Bob Goddard. "They prepared the girls well for this match, and it was an important win for us. Our next seven matches are all on the road against strong opponents, and we needed to have some mo­ mentum going. We had a total of 34 shots-ongoal to Davidson's one, and they scored on that shot" The next time the team will compete in Boone will be during the Fourth Annual Southem Women's Soccer Association Invitational Tournament on Nov. 13-14. ASU Runners' take second BY CHAN HARRISON REPORTER The Men's and Women's Cross Country teams both finished second this past weekend at Moses Cone park in Blowing Rock. Dawn Wehrenburg, who ran an 18:53.9 and Carrie Hogg, with an 18:59.0,stood out among the Lady Mountaineers. "Dawn ran a a very good race for us and established a personal record," said Appalachian's women'scoach John Weaver. "We are delighted to see her run so well." Clemson won the event with 16 points while Appalachian finished with 50. Western Carolina finished last with 68 points. Nichole Disher, with a 19:05.4, led the other pack of Appalachian runners which included:Suzanne Black (19:23.5), Jenny Sheets (19:35.4), Melanie Babb (19:43.8), Leah Walker (19:53.6), Jessica Edwards (20:35.5) and Fran Eckles (21:59.3). "We ran faster times from four weeks ago," said Weaver. "However, we need to continue to improve to do well in the conference at the end of October." The Lady Mountaineers run again Oct. 16 at the North Carolina invitational at Western Carolina. The Appalachian Men'sCross Country team also finished second. The men lost by only two points in team score with Clemson scor­ ing 30 points to Appalachian's 28. Western Carolina brought up the rear with 70 points. Outstanding performers for the Mountain­ eers were Billy Pemberton (25:26.4), Brian Miesch (25:43.7), Alan Wicker (25. 43.7), Chris Huffstickler (25:46.7), and John Crumbliss (25:47.4). These Mountaineers finished fifth through eighth place in overall standings. Jamie Griggs (26:40.1), Scot Laliberte (27:03.4), Dustin Alfred (27:11.2), and Chris Miller (29:45.6) rounded out the Moutaineer effort. The men run again this weekend at the Furman Invitational. I know, I know. The big Kendall Gill trade is 3 or 4 weeks gone, There is no need logo thrashing Gill just because he couldn't handle the fact that Alonzo Mourning and Larry Johnson were more important to the Hornets than he was. There is no need for me to hold a severe contempt for him just because he was selfish, and couldn't be the Head Hornet. Well, I'm sorry KG (I always hated it when people called him that),I do hold a severe contempt for you. Let me get a couple of things out in the open. As you can tell, I am not happy with KG (1 am going to call him that because it sounds really stupid),but that does not dis­ miss the fact that he has talenL He is one of those gritty, hard-nosed players that teams love to have. He was aggressive, and played great defense. Charlotte fans loved him because he was cocky. Few God's sake, one time before a game with the Bulls he said he wanted to guard Michael Jordan. He couldn't of course, but he still said iL He wasn 't the bestshooting guard in the league, but he was a perfect fit on an up-and-coming Hornets team. Then, BOOM! "I want toplay in a bigger market." Uh, KG, why? I wish 1 could have been there when KG and HornetsTeam PresidentSpencerStolpen had their first of many contract negotiations this past summer. From what the papersand the TV said, it went something like this: KG asked for a $20 million contract for five years of play. Wait. Uh, KG, were you on something that day ? Were you sick and on some kind of strong medication? Were you kidding? Was it just a big joke? Do you realize that if you received a contract like that you would be getting paid more than Larry Johnson or Alonzo Mourning? Do you realize that youare not as good as either one of them, and not as important? Whew, sorry. That's been waiting to come out for a long time. The truth is, if I had been Stolpen, I would have laughed in his face. KG is not worth $4 million a year. He is good, but not that good. Now, let's break down the other part of his demands. He wanted to play in a bigger market - L.A., New York, Atlanta or Se­ attle. Alright- KG, you go to the Big Apple and you would come off the bench for John Starks. I don't like him either, but it is the cold, hard truth. Atlanta? Why? The Hawks could put the Dream Team on the court and wouldn't be able to win because, well, they'd be the Hawks. In L.A., you might be able to be a star. But why play for a Lakers team that is getting ready to go through what will probably be their worst era ever? And, oh yeah, the Clippers. Go back to what I said about the Hawks. But, hey, you got one of your choices. Seattle. Landofrainand, well...rain. You're definitely going to be the Head Honcho there. Sure,you'rebetterthan Shawn Kemp and Derrick McKey. Here's a warning, KG - if you screw up, Ricky Pierce will end up starting, and you'll be sitting on the bench wondering why you ever left Charlotte. I'll be honest, KG. The Hornets will be better without you. Had you stayed this year to wait and exercise your options as an unrestricted free agent, you would have made the rest of the team miserable. It's obvious to everyone that you're just out for yourself. Now we have Hersey Hawkins, who can hit from the outside consistently. That was something you could never do. There's going to be a time soon, KG, when you will walk into the Charlotte Coli­ seum wearing that ugly green, yellow and white SuperSonic uniform. When you walk onto the court, look and listen carefully. Look up at section 211. Because I will be sitting in seat 13 (your Hornets number, ironically), booing you the whole time you are on the court I will boo not because you are a money-grubbing basketball player, but because you are a selfish, pompous glory-hog. And after we beat your team, and I am at home unable to speak from a sore throat, I want you to look up two words role and player. I would really appreciate it.

Georgia Southern took its first taste of 1-A action against one of the nation's best Saturday in one of the greatest stadiums in college football. The Eagles could not get the upset, as #3 Miami got off to a quick start with a 33-yard field goal from Dane Prewitt with 7:40 to go in the first quarter.

MEAL CARDS If Your Not-to-be-Believed Horoscope by Jack Aries(Mar.21-Apr.l9)-You will receive a paper cut today or tomorrow. No, maybe next week, but you'll know it whenever it happens. Rest assured. Taurus(Apr. 20-May. 20)-Someone was watching you in class today. Maybe they thought your hair looked stupid; maybe they were trying to get up enough nerve to ask you to Hardee's to eat shakes; maybe they're some kind of pycho, man! Maybe you should skip that class next time. Gemini(May. 21-June 21)- Your mental state of miserable confusion continues. Cancer(June 22-July 22)-Walk up to someone you've never met today, and tell them, "Hey, you've got a great smile!" If they're not smiling, tell them, "Hey, I bet you've got a great smile!" Leo(July 23-Aug. 22)- The wind will whisper in your right ear this evening. Listen. Virgo(Aug. 23-Sept. 23)-Your friend, the one with the bike, will start to believe he is some stunt guy. He will buy a pair of red, white and blue biking pants with stars on one butt cheek and stripes on the other. Don't worry. Just concern yourself with making sure no one finds your Superman suit and cape. Libra(Sept. 23-OcL 23)- No one will believe anything you say today. Scorpio(Oct. 24-Nov.21)-If only Fall Break had come a week earlier! School is no good anymore, and it will most likely rain tomorrow — if not all around, at least on your head. Perhaps therapy would be best. Then again, maybe you've had the best week ever. Sagittarius(Nov. 22-Dcc. 21)-Hey, don't ask me, man! You figure your own life out.

For example, the music of 2 Live Crew, and Madonna, as well as the film The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover, have come under considerable fire in the last few years. In fact they were condemned (or banned outright in the example of 2 Live Crew), based on "graphic" sexual content 1 realize that many people do not appreciate this type of artistic expression, but realistically this social condemnation rep­ resents artistic censorship. This clearly violates the First Amendment which guarantees all Americans freedom of speech. As much as some people would like us to believe otherwise, sex is a normal and necessary function of human behavior. Granted, many musical groups and movies are exploitative or lacking in good taste in their presentation of sexual material, and in this age of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, casual inter­ course can be very dangerous. However, this does not mean that presentations of this subject need to be hidden away from the human eye, and who is to say what is tasteless or exploitative? Freedom of speech applies to everyone, even those who might not deserve it, for precisely the reason that no one can defini­ tively say what is reasonable and what is over the line. An interesting irony is that many of the same people who object to sexual material because it promotes casual sex, and; therefore, the spread of STD's, also object to sex education for children and distribution of free prophylac­ tics. These are probably the most realistic and effective weapons against AIDS, pregnancy, and other sex-related dangers available right now. Conservative fundamental­ ists and others who adopt this attitude are not actually doing it for some kind of social good, they are merely offended by the acknowledgment of pre-marital sexual activity in our society. This outlook is petty, outdated, and is potentially destructive to society as a whole. Another irony is that while the protestersof NYPD Blue point out the sex scenes and "dirty words" present in the show, they, for the most part, overlook the fact that there is also some very violent material. Our society has long taken the view that sex is "worse" than violence in terms of objectionable material. The Friday the 13th and Rambo series are all rated R by the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), while Henry and June is bumped up to NCI 7. Nearly all X-rated movies are so desig­ nated because of sexual content; there are very few films rated X because of extreme violence. With the recent violent happen­ ings in Florida and Los Angeles, and even the shooting match that happened here in Boone over the summer, one would think that we as a society should be more concerned with violence in the media, and spend less time squabbling over a one-second shot of female buttocks. This is not to say that shows should be banned or censored due to violence any more than they should for sexual material. The same standard applies; no one can say for sure what is too violent to be shown. Education about violence is a beuer solution than trying to hide it in a comer and forget about it, and the exact same criteria applies to casual sex. Topics such as these must be exposed to be dealt with; ignorance breeds vulnerability. The responsibility for what a person is exposed to lies with that person, or the family, and applies only to that person or family. No one can make that kind of decision for anyone else. However, we must exercise common sense and realistic judgments when making this decision, instead of personal squeamishness and old-fashioned mores. America needs to rearrange its priorities. • bjectivism—choice of life or death BY MAX BORDERS COLUMNIST think...." Rational egoism is not the worship of whims. Whim is not a viable interest.

CHRONIC HAUT05IS. —Blaise Pascal Go Braves! and party smart, Appalachian Autumn's chill finally graced the moun­ tains around Boone this week, and with the whispery breath of late September, sweatered bodies, and early mid-mid-term burnout, another baseball season draws to a close. Remember last year about this time when Atlanta's exciting Braves closed the season atop the National League West? Remember Pedre Cabrerra? Remeber the exuberant reaction of about 1,200 local Braves Fans? Many people at Appalachian State Univer­ sity do. Officials at the ASU athletic office certainly do. They remember the $4,000 worth of damage done to the goal posts at Kidd Brewer Stadium. As the current baseball season ends there is the very real possibility the Braves will once again win the Western Division of the National League. We hope they do. At the present time, Atlanta's major league fran­ chise holds the best record in baseball since the All-Star break. Many Boone residents and many Appala­ chian students are Braves fans. As the countdown begins and the Braves first have to win any combination of three, then two, then one victories to capture the pennant, the beer, Cokes, chips, hotdogs and other de­ lights will be consumed; and the thrill of the victory will grow and grow. Finally, if the Braves capture the pennant, this built-up excitement will be released once again in the streets in and around the Appalachian campus. A word of advice is needed. Celebrate those Braves. In a year, when everyone wonders if the ASU Mountaineers will win a game, you can bet sports fans will grab any excuse to celebrate. But let's do it respon­ sibly. Shout, drink a brew or two, but don't create havoc by wandering into the streets, or diving into the Duck Pond, or ripping apart Appalachian's resident halls, dining facilities, or the football stadium. Since we know the celebration will come if the Braves win, we have to ask if the university is prepared. Appalachian wasn't prepared for the unofficial block party at the start of the new school year, so is it prepared now? How does Appalachain's security plan to deal with a possible repeat perfor­ mance of last year's triumphant enthusi­ asts? Have they thought about it at all? Perhaps this celebration can be directed into a more festive but less destructive event if Braves fans and local and campus authori­ ties work together. We hope they do. If the Braves lose,... well, let's just focus on hope and excitement, for now. GO BRAVES! DAVID HUGHES-COMMENTARY EDITOR MATTHEW ARNOLD-ASSISTANT EDITOR THE APPALACHIAN WILLIAM C.

Bruce dazzles with show of skill BY AARON PRICE REPORTER After a fifty-hour drive from Oregon and a short, half-day break upon arriving in Boone, one would have expected the Aquarium Rescue Unit to be a bit road-weary, and far from ready togive a two-hour-plusshow to the over three hundred fans that gathered at Legend's last Thursday night. But then, you might have alsoexpected NC State to whip UNC on Saturday (Go heels!). You would have been dead wrong on both counts. Jimmy Herring, Otiel Burbridge, and drummer Apt. Q258 took the stage and got things off to a smoking start with a pedal-to-the-metal instrumental show­ casing the group's tightness - a precision perfected during the many shows on this summer's HORDE tour. The crowd cheered each solo and locked into the trio's groove almost immediately. And Col. Bruce had not yet taken the stage. After ample warm-up time for the ARU, Bruce did enter, and he officially opened the show with a rousing, roaring version of No Egos Underwater, a favorite from the group's latest Capricorn release. Mirrors of Embarrassment. This number was punctuated by the amazing rhythmic precision of Apt Q258 and bassist Burbridge, who was decked out in his customary Egyptian garb and strapped to his Modulus six-string bass. Guitarist Jimmy Herring (from Boone, incidentally) served up a looping, twisted guitar solo that had us all giggling. But, as is customary for the ARU, the flash of every member of this group never overshadows the overall catchiness of the songs. Well, almost never. Compared ToWhat, from the quartet's debut, was a definite highlight of the show. For the duration of this seventeenminute jam, the band skated the laser-thin line between funky r&b, blues, and fusion, prov­ ing once again that to bind them together with labeling glue would be impossible. And that performance was before they delved into the The David Bowie-produced fifth album, with the satirical Dead All The Young Dudes, brought Mott to the rock/bluegrass realm Presidents, the ARU's trademark anthem. attention of Columbia Records.

Bowie urged the group tostay together, and helped to arrange a new record deal. The resulting album produced the title hit, and a number of other items of interest - a Velvets' cover (Sweet Jane),and a number of glam-oriented originals (Momma's Little Jewel is a standout). Seven of the nine tracks on Dudes are represented here, including the marginal One of the Boys andReady For Love - two of Mott's low points. In 1973, the band re­ leased Mott as a quar­ tet (organist Verden Allen quit the group in '72). Mott stands, along with Brain Ca­ pers, as a peak in the band's career. Eight of Mott's nine songs are here - including the pre-punk statementsof-purpose Violence and Whizz Kid, and three definitive ballads (the band's history is outlined, and its emo­ tional demise* is fore­ shadowed on two of these packs). This compilation ends with several selec­ tions from Hunter's 1974 farewell to the band (The Hoople), a spotty and confused-sound­ ing album, which also proved to be an emo­ tional minefield. Guitarist Mick Ralphs had fled to Bad Company, and a new guitarist, Ariel Bender (who fit in like a debutante at a crap shoot) was added. In retrospect, the entropy within thegroup was, by this point, all over the lyrics included within the release. None of the Packs from The Hoople rank with the best of its earlier material, but the good-to-decent ones are included here. A number of b-sides (R.I.P., Saturday Gigs and Where Do You All Come From? are all great) are also included here. A very short­ lived later lineup from 1974 included the late Mick Ronson on lead guitar, and two demos from this arrangement (Henry and the HBomb and Lounge Lizard, the latter of which wound upon Hunter's '75 solo debut) are also included. Mott the Hoople stand, with a few other groups, as an essential link between two mu­ sical generations usually at odds with each other: the 'sixties' and 'punk' eras of rock-nroll. They wereas musically accomplished as one, and they were as witheringly no-bulls*** as the other. Carefully avoiding thetemptations of arenarock, art-rock and other wanky 70's pends that created the necessity for punk's great wiping-of-the-slate, the group created a solid and lasting legacy, in spite of its lack of fame at the time.

Earlier this summer, they released Hocus Pocus, a "family movie" about three witches killing and terrorizing children. It turned out to be a critical and commercial disaster. Their latest family movie, Cool Runnings, is for the entPe family. Cool Runnings is based on the real-life story of the first Jamaican bobsled team and their uphill battle to race in the 1988Olympics in Calgary. Our four Olympian heroes are played by Leon (no last name), Doug E. Doug, Malik Yoba, and Rawle Lewis. To the horror of everyone in Jamaica, the foursome decide to be the first Jamaican bobsleders. Unfortu­ nately, they have a few problems.For starters, the only place they have ever seen ice is in their freezers or ice-cream Pucks; and they have never seen snow. They have no money and if they ask anyone for sponsorship, they get laughed out the door. Oh, yeah. None of them have ever seen a bobsled, either. Only one person in all of Jamaica believes in ADVERTISE HERE FOR ONLY CALL 262-2157 Battling the burnt out blues BY JODI TALLEY ASSISTANT EDITOR Is it just me, or are things different? Now that I am a seasoned veteran,a senior, I find myself burnt out more and more often. As a freshman and sophomore, I began each semester refreshed and eager. New classes and different professors gave me renewed hope that I would at last attain that all-elusive 4.0. My attitude towards life has definitely changed. Some of this attitude change comes from just feeling old. You know things are getting bad when all of the songs you grew up listening to as a kid are now compiled on a cheesy collec­ tion that you can order from an 800 num­ ber. For some strange reason I am uncom­ fortable knowing all the words to tunes referred to as "classics." I am not saying that I am cynical or bitter, only that I am increasingly tired of my college career. I am no longer speaking of the garden variety bum out. Regular burn­ out is brought on by large amounts of sPess and can be relieved by a period of rest. In my underclass years I would begin to feel justa slight amount of fatigue prior to a long holiday, but then I would go home and rest, coming back better than when I left. Now I always crave a longer vacation. I am never satisfied. I want to leave my aca­ demic pursuits behind and be free! I see freshman around campus and I am jealous. I want to possess their sunny outlook and to once again want my family to come for Family Weekend. I see myself consumed with academic pursuits. 1 rarely see my room anymore. I think I have a roommate, but she may have moved out months ago and I wouldn't have ever been the wiser. Not that I would know what to do with one if I got one, but I need a break! I really do not feel that I am alone. I know that there are more of you that feel the way I do. But we must not let ourselves be slaves to our bumout. So, what should we do? If you are really like me not only can you not find the time to do anything for the sheer fun of it, you can't find the money either. Well, that is why the Diversions page is here. We will try to keep you informed on all the non-spessful things you can do with your time. For example, this weekend is Family Weekend, and even if your family is not going to be here, you can still let off some steam. Thereare plenty of opportuniPes to have fun just waiting for you! Many activities are planned. The marching band them - a washed-up, fat, loudmouth bookie named Irving Blitzer (John Candy). Irving was a champion bobsleder who won several gold medalsat the Olympics during the I960's. His career and life fizzled and he was stripped of his medals after he was caught cheating during a race. The chance to coach and win fame reawakens a fun-loving, caring guy. The team's training session's and eventual arrival at the Olympics are both hilarious and awe-inspiring. The funniest scenes involve the team's adjustment to cold weather (a ran­ dom example is 25 below). Doug E. Doug steals the movie from John Candy and the rest of the cast. Just the mere presence or mention of Doug's character had me rolling on the floor with laughter. Cool Runnings, rated PG, is not entirely free of adult-oriented situations. There is a brief barroom fight and a few foul words. Fortunately, there are no villains, unneces­ sary violence, or anything else to clog up the story. This is pure straight comedy. The best thing about Cool Runnings is that it goes back to the old Disney theme "When You Wish Upon a Star...," and that makes this movie "a Dream Come True."

(Yes, I confess,I am a March­ ing Band groupie!) In all honesty I think that the funniest thing to see will be the fast and furious room cleaning that will be taking place this week as students try to prepare for their parents' arrival.

She alter­ nates yearly between directing a theater pro­ duction and adapting a literature work to a performance piece. DerfOl 11ItlllCC DieCe. This year, Welden is directing the play Whisper of the River, which she adapted from the novel of the same name. The novel is by Ferrol Sams, who was her childhood physi­ cian in Georgia. She gives a word of advice to any freshman seminar students who are plan­ ning on seeing the play in lieu of reading the required novel: "don't even try it." She only used about a fourth of the book in the produc­ tion. Outside of Appalachian, Welden is active in many areas of the community. She enjoys performing literature for social events as well as singing in the Boone United Methodist Church choir. She is also a former president of the Blue Ridge Community Theater. This past summer she participated in the summer stock theater program at Lees McRae Col­ lege. As Welden embarks on her twentieth year at Appalachian, she vividly recalls how she ended up in Boone and what has kept her here so long. When she was a graduate student at LSU, she attended a convention where she met the chair of the Theater and Dance (then called Speech) department at Appalachian. Welden said, "When I saw Boone, I had to take (the job)." She recalls that the clean air, beautiful scenery, and the friendliness of the people caused her to stay at Appalachian. "I like my job, but particularly I like the type of students Appalachian attracts," she said. "A special type of student comes to Appalachian and there is a special bond be tween the professors and the students. Appa­ lachian draws students who are sensitive to the beauty and nature of the area." Not-to-be-Believed Horoscope by Jack ies<Mar.21-Apr.19)-The prize patrol will show your house today!

This series, which be­ gan with a workshop on September 23, was designed to help Appalachian clubs and orga­ nizations, as well as individual students,reach their full potential The leadership series consists of workshops 1lie ICaUCI 51IIJJ 3UI1W VV/IIOIOw wi « V. .WJ/" created and presented by Appalachian faculty and staff, who have expertise in leadership development and student organizations. The first workshop focused on "Recruitment and Retention of Members: How to Get 'em and How to Keep 'em." The speaker for the program was Art Quickenton, professor of Curriculum and Instruction and advisor to the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. Jim Street, Assistant Director of the CSIL, said that 33 people attended the first work­ shop, which was held in The Pub. He antici­ pates that the numbers of people who partici­ pate will increase as more people learn about the series and what it can do for them. Heather Lasher, series coordinator, recom­ mends thatorganizations and individuals take part in all of the workshops, but participants may attend any number of workshops they desire. Organizations can receive special recogni­ tion for participating in the series if represen­ tatives of those organizations attend at least eight of the eleven workshops. Each organi­ zation may send an unlimited number of par­ ticipants. Individuals may also receive recog­ nition ifor attending at least seven of the workshops.. Tamara Jones, thel993-94 president of the Coordinating Council of Clubs, said, "The o series offers insight and leadership skills. It's a great idea to attend if you plan to become an officer in your organization." In the spring, after the series is completed, the clubs and individuals who received credit for their participation will be invited to attend a "graduation" reception to reward them for their efforts. Certificates will be given and their participation will be recorded on their Student Development Record (co-cumcular transcript). Street wants to ensure that this series will be something special. He explained that, since the series covers a variety of subjects on achieving success, everyone should be able to gain some insight on how to improve them­ selves. He further stressed the importance of Improper use of condoms leads to big problems % N*° H> :/ fr»tN f KIT OLSON GUEST COLUMNIST The Wellness Center and the Substance Abuse Education Program jointly sponsor this bi-weekly column. Columns will be devoted to health and wellness concerns of college students. Wellness covers a broad range of healthrelated areas, aimed at enhancing well-be­ ing, as well as addressing specific health issues. Wellness includes physical health and illness prevention, as well as intellec­ tual, emotional, occupational, social, and spiritual wellness. I began writing an article on stress man­ agement and time management, and then I read Damien Carper's article on the high failure rate of some condoms. As important as stress management and time management may be, it seems timely to share information of the effectiveness of condoms published in The University of California at Berkeley Wellness Letter of December, 1992. This article estimates that condom failure from leakage, breakage, or improper use can vary among brands and among batches of the same brand. User failure is related to users' age,educa­ tion, and the amount of experience they've had using condoms. When condoms are properly used, failure rates can be as low as 1-2%, according to the Berkeley Wellness Letter . The first step in condom effectiveness in preventing transmission of a wide range of STDs, including chlamydia, herpes, human papilloma virus, as well as the HIV virus, is use. You have a 100% failure rate if the condom remains in the box, on the table, out of sight, unopened. Other means of improving your odds for protection and "safer sex" include: —Use a new condom for every act of intercourse. * —Use fresh condoms and store them in a cool, dark place. —Use a water-based lubricant such as KY Jelly. Oil-based lubricants cause the latex to deteriorate and break more easily. Vaseline and mineral oil lead to breakage. —Use nonoxynol-9, a spermicide which helps kill HIV and other STD viruses. Look for prelubricated condoms which contain nonoxynol-9 and use vaginal spermicides for added protection. —Use condoms with a reservoir tip. membership and leadership development, adding, "One of our goals is to see to it that organizations can be successful on campus. Also, we support organizations which may be applying for national recognition." The next workshop in the series, called "Reach ForNew Heights: GetIt Done Through Goal Setting," will be on September 30, in The Pub. This workshop, which starts at 6:30 p.m., will feature guest speaker, Joni Petschauer, Coordinator for Learning Skills with the Learning Assistance Program. Future workshops for the Fall 1993 semes­ ter are: "Delegation and Committees: We're All In This Together," on October 14, 'Team Building: Getting Yourselves Together," on October 28,"Officer Transition: You Can Be Replaced," on November 11, and "Effective Program Planning: Programming With A Punch," on November 18. All workshops will meet in The Pub, in Plem mons Student Union, at 6:30 p.m. More workshops will be held this spring. Those interested in participating in one or more of the workshops are encouraged to attend. For more information about the Stu­ dent Organizational Development and Lead­ ership Series, contact a representative from the Coordinating Council of Clubs, at 2626251, or Jim Street, of the CSIL,at 262-6252. In addition to choosing the right products, it is important to use condoms carefully. Fingernails and rings can damage them. Don't wait until the last minute to put it on. Careful removal is also important so the condom does not slip off. Other concerns about STDs: —Abstinence and mutually faithful sexual relationships with uninfected partners are the only truly safe options. —Unprotected sex is risky. —HIV is not the only enemy. —Condoms offer protection against trans­ mission of all STDs. —User failure (or failure to use), may be much more common than condom breakage or leakage. The complete article from The University of California at Berkeley Wellness Letter is available in the WellnessCenter for students who wish to have more information on safer sex.

"We had about 70 guys try out, we're down to 32 now, and we have to be down to 25 by the beginning of the season. We also like to do a lotof teaching and conditioning and get some playing time in order to get the old guys and the new guys accustomed to each other." Among his reluming players, Morris seems most enthused about his outfield, where he returns the entire starting unit: Rich Livolsi, Will Shellman, and last year's leading RBI man, John Bonner, from last season. "It's good to have three such experienced players back from last year, with all the newcomers we'll have this year," said Morris. Morris looks forward to a more consistent season from his infield, where Southern Con­ ference freshman-of-the-year Kenny Osborne returns to start at first base. Osborne led last year's Mountaineers with a .333 batting aver­ age. TrentSuggs, who learned to switch-hit in the off-season and has impressed the coaches with his batsmanship from the left side of the plate, is penciled in at second base. Shortstop will be manned by 1993 starter Ed Ewasko and true freshman Cubby Lane. Third base will be covered by red-shirt freshman Will Reeves and Ewasko. The catching situation isa bit more muddled, with junior Scott McDaniel battling sopho­ mores Shane Owenby and Danny Allard for the starting nod. "All three of these men will receive considerable playing time, and there is a good chance that two of them will play every game, one catching and one at DH," said Morris. Gary Davis and Scott Musgrave will hold the first two spots in the starting pitching rotation, with the remainder to be filled by a collection of newcomers. Morris has many fresh faces this season to deal with and several will play key roles this season. Reeves has impressed the coaches during fall practice, hitting the ball with authority and showing good defense at third, and also displaying a strong arm that could put him in the starting rotation next spring. Among thetrue freshmen, Morris says Lane, a two-time all-state selection at Unicoi County (Tennessee) High School,could earn the most playing time due to his athletic skills and versatility in the infield. Several transfers should also make an im­ pact this season. ers all defaulted. Last Wednesday also marked the first day of play in Women's soccer. The Chi Omega Booties moved into the top spot by booting the Lady Bugs. Knock Im Boots knocked over the Delta Zeta Demons to move up to number two.

"Thegirl Katy was playing didn't miss for a while and Katy had to fight her, both physically and mentally. She fought it out and it was a good win." Peggy Wein reached the consolation finals of the first flight but lost two tough sets to a player from ECU. However, Wein didn't let anything slow her down in boasting of her team's effort. Wein said, "When Sunday came and we were all there to play in the finals, it was like we owned the tournament." Coach Fields said,"Peggy plays a grueling type of tennis: run and hit, run and hit She tries hard all of the time." In doubles action, two Appalachain teams volleyed their way to the top of their flights. Jennifer Sopel and Alice Heidgerd played in the finals of flight one against two players that Jennifer had defeated in singles play. "If they can get their net play down, there are not a lot of teams that can beat them," Fields said. Amy Parille and Carrie Burton, in their doubles debut, won the flight two consolation round in straight sets. "I wasn't happy about the doubles matches at ETSU (tournament on Sept.17-19)," Coach Fields said. "I'm not sure if this is the final line-up but the attack style tennis the girls (Parille and Burton) showed this weekend really sayssomething about them.

NEWS DEPARTMENT Y - *^StA\T EDITOR: WRITERS: DAWN MCGUIRE AMY BEACH DANE PERRY ROBERT ROBERTSON WEEKDAY EDITION Banned Books Week recognized BY COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE Is it possible that Maya Angelou, one of America's favorite poets, wrote a book of­ fensive enough to be removed from a public library in this country? Somebody thought so. The same poet, whose stirring prose was heard by the nation at the Clinton inaugura­ tion this year, penned I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, a book removed from a Banning, Calif, eighth-grade class in 1991 after several parents complained about pas­ sages depicting sexual molestation. "The efforts to interfere with theavailabil­ ity of a wide range of books continue un­ abated across the country," said Oren J. Teicher, president of the American Book­ sellers Foundation for Free Expression. "The censors' appetitefor removing material from libraries, schools and bookstores seems to be as ravenous as ever." The banning of Angelou's book and oth­ ers, such as Huckleberry Finn, I Left My Heart at Wounded Knee, or Of Mice and Men will be highlighted during Banned Books Week: Celebrating the Freedom to Read, celebrated Sept. 25-0ct. 2 on college campuses throughout the country. Appalachian is celebrating the week by offering 20 percent off on books that have been banned. The sale lasts until Oct. 8 and includes books such as Judy Blume's Blub­ ber and the American Heritage Dictio­ nary, removed from some school libraries because it contained "objectionable lan­ guage." The National Association of College Stores (NACS) is offering bookstores doz­ ens of targeted titlesand several bookson the First Amendment for Banned Books Week. "Most of the books that have been banned in this country are books that the average person has read, and they say, 'Gee, I read that book and didn't find anything wrong with it,"' observed Krista Long, merchan­ dise manager for the NACS. All that is necessary to put a book in jeop­ ardy, said Long, is for a small group of vocal people to write letters to a newspaper or to launch a protest in a school board meeting. The outcome of a protest, however, depends on school or library officials. "Some school boards cave in; some don't. People think some books are terribly inappro­ priate for their children and therefore for all children. The conflict is usually over religious issues," Long said. Many books go through cycles of being banned, being reinstated, being banned again, then being reinstated as many as a dozen times, Long said. "These people are wellmeaning. It's just that they don't see beyond the issue to the larger issue of putting freedom of expression in jeopardy," she said. A kit offered to college bookstores for Banned Books Week includes an informa­ tional brochure about the First Amendment and book censorship, posters, and hundredsof bookmarks to remind students that banning books is still practiced in parts of the country. Banned Books Week is sponsored by the American Library Association, the American Booksellers Association, the American Book­ sellers Foundation for Free Expression, the American Society of Journalists and Authors and the Association of American Publishers. Stephanie Williams, senior, reads why James and the Giant Peach was banned. The book was banned in a Florida elementary school because it contains a foul word and promotes drugs and whiskey.

Paschal, Arreiitly the Director of State Affairs for F>F>alachian's SGA, will lead a team that i11 organize and compile information for 1 of the 16 schools in the UNC system. APPLACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE • NC 28608 Student leaders met with student govern­ ment cabinet members to discuss issues and concerns during SGA's first "kitchen cabi­ net" meeting Tuesday night. The newly organized "kitchen cabinet" is a diverse group of representatives from clubs and organizations that meets and discusses campus issues. "The idea came from just sitting and talking with [president] J.D. Adams and [vice presi­ dent] Edith Featherston. We wanted to have a group thatcould get together in a relaxed atmo­ sphere and talk," said Chip Baggett, SGA ad­ ministrative assistant. Baggett is in charge of the newly formed group. Attending the meeting were representatives from organizations such as the Coordinating Council of Clubs and the Athletic Council and students who came to represent general student concerns. Representatives havean opportunity to give presentations to the group about special events or concerns that their organizations may have. SGA members also have a chance to let the group know what is happening in the senate and askit what changesit would like to see. Ray Paschal, director of state affairs, gave a short presentation on the North Carolina bond referendum, saying it would bring al­ most $24 million to Appalachian. "We haven'tgotten money like this in over ten years. If the university doesn't get this money, it will be in poor shape," Paschal said. Adams spoke about the group's role in working together. He also said that at the recent Board of Trustees meeting, $300,000 was secured for the library. These meetings will be held monthly. The date of the October meeting has not been announced yet. President signs service bill BY COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE President Clinton signed into law a scaledback version of his plan to promote national service among youth in exchange for federal help with the cost of a college education. Under the National Service and Commu­ nity Trust Act, students could work for up to two years, making $4,725 annually to pay for college or pay off existing loans. Students also would earn a minimum wage salary as they perform service in a variety of social service and environmental settings. During the 1992 presidential campaign, Clinton had envisioned national service as a way for all students to attend college. But his plan fell victim to various budget pressures, and the package ultimately approved by Con­ gress is expected to reach only a fraction of the 5 million U.S. college students who cur­ rently receive financial aid. Nonetheless, the president, at a White House ceremony on Sept. 1, touted the new plan asan importantstarting point to instill in youth a tradition of service. "I hope, believe and dream that national service will remain throughout the life of America not a series of promises but a series of challenges across all the generations and all walksof life to help us rebuild our troubled, but wonderful, land," the president said. To underscore the importance of the occa­ sion, Clinton signed the bill with pens used by Franklin Roosevelt to create the Civilian Conservation Corps, a Depression era ser­ vice program, and John F. Kennedy when he created the Peace Corps in the 1960s. The bill authorizes $300 million in 1994 to cover about 20,000 participants in the pro­ gram. The bill sets a goal of $500 million in funding in 1995 and $700 million in 1996 to recruit a growing number of students. In addition to receiving minimum wage and college aid, participants will receive health insurance and child-care assistance if applicable, during their service period. The bill passed the House in early August by a vote of 275-152. Senate Democrats broke a Republican-led filibuster of the bill late in the summer and eventually approved the measure by a 57-40 vote on Sept. 8. Even before the bill's signing, Clinton kicked off his national service effort earlier this year with a"Summer of Service" for 1,500students. These youth helped immunize children, rebuild communities and clean the environment at 16 programs in cities including Boston, Los Ange­ les, New Orleans, New York,and Philadelphia. Student groups generally expressed support for the president's plan, but noted that its lim­ ited scope will helponly a few students receive the type of financial help they need for college. "The type of program Bill Clinton preached (during the campaign) was probably not pos­ sible," said Stephanie Arellano, Vice President of the United States Student Association. As approved by Congress, she said, "it will affect only a fraction of most college students' debt." Arellano also expressed concern because the minimum-wage jobs envisioned under the ser­ vice plan will not help recent graduates who already have loan payments. "They won't be making enough money to pay off a loan," she said. Nonetheless, she said USSA viewed enact­ ment of the bill as a positive step toward en­ couraging community service. "We're pleased that it passed," she said, especially provisions favored by student groups to offer health care an<j child-care assistance. As for the future, however, Arellano said it is still imperative that Congress provide more funds for other student financial aid programs because national service will reach only a small number of students. Already, however, budget pressures are forcing Congress to consider freez­ ing the maximum Pell Grant and funding for other programs. In addition, though Clinton proposed the national service bill, his budget plan also would have cut other financial aid programs to reduce the budget deficit. Several Appalachian students voiced their concerns about the library in a focus group on Sept. 22. Todd Keith, a member of the group, said, "The library is the brain of the university." He also said that the library needs to take a more active roll in the university. The focus group was organized by the Hubbard Center.

Plasma provides an incredible jji flexibility. Surgeons could not otherwise store an adequate blood supply for the multitude of operations that go on every day. Who invented plasma? I cannot answer that either. I can say that plasma was invented by an African-American. I can say that he died after a car accident in a hospital that would not treat him because of the color of his skin. In Israel, there has been an outcry over the movie Jurassic Park.The controversy over there is not about the violence, although there is an incredible amount of blood and gore. It is not about the possibly unethical issue of genetic engineering. What is the problem in Israel? The difficulty is that the existence of dinosaurs on the earth some 65 to 200 million years ago contradicts traditional Jewish teachings about the age of the world. The Rabbis do not want the fossil record to overshadow these teach­ ings or religious belief. This is trivial. This is unimportant. It does not really matter who invented the cotton gin as long as I have my Levis. It does not really matter who invented plasma as long as I can get my appendix removed if it should become infected. It does not really matter about dinosaurs as long as my kid brother can get & Jurassic Park lunch box. Hogwash. What is important in all of this, is to realize that history is biased. Science is biased. This is my problem. It is my problem, but not because I am a student at Appalachian, and not because I am a white male of European descent It is my problem and it is your problem. This issue of bias in virtually everything we perceive is a problem for all of humanity.

I Holder, >uld like to respond to your recent letter. Although t>ecome accustomed to the slurs directed at me and U&agues for opposing the 25 million-dollar basketrena, I will not remain silent while you bully and e ./Appalachian's students. To label the student orgapwctesting the SAC as an "ill-informed group of tvsunts" is not only immature and libelous, it is ect.You confusecause with effect. Neither I nor my Sues urged students to adopt "our" beliefs. Rather, However, the politically correct orthodoxy that pervades ASU does not allow true freedom of thought and speech. Instead, we are told that certain topics are off limits. If one criticizes the radical homosexual agenda (though they do not representall homosexuals),multiculturalism,women's studies, black studies, affirmative action and any other liberal icon, they will immediately be branded an insensi­ tive, narrow-minded, racist, sexist, homophobe. And if you don't back down from these academic bullies you stand a good chance of being kicked out of school. What on earth have we come to? The sensitivity police have gotten everyone so scared that most will not speak their own mind. If you look at, flirt with, or even comple­ ment someone of the opposite sex, you could be accused of sexual harassment and hounded off of campus. If you're really lucky, militant feminists might harass you by spray painting your name on buildings and sidewalks. This censorship is all too similar to fascist Italy and Nazi Germany right before and during WWII. Be careful, Big Brother has been replaced by the University "thought police." The letters I've received regardingThe Messenger were by and large positive. Of course some were down right hateful, malicious, and mean-spirited. Why do some feel so threatened by this paper? We have in no way intended vslOULO YOU ORMtiT MONIt To ? to hurt anyone's feelings. Our story about Anthony WRONS.

Since The Appalachian will not print editorials about V i nto becoming involved. I am proud that Appalas*-udents have taken a position based on principle religion, social and broad partisan issues, it seems all the more reason for a paper like The Messenger to be distrib­ 1 t^srity. For the university to tax the students for a arena is unconscionable, especially given the uted on campus. For God's sake, if you don't like it— >cart academic needs that remain unmet at ASU. don't read it.

RAYLE SPEAKS OUT FOR SCHOFIELD To the editor: For the first time in memory, the students of Appala­ chian have the opportunity to gain real representation on the Boone Town Council. Hunter Schofield, a student at Appalachian, is running in the October election. His candidacy is giving us all a chance to become more involved and better represented in our community. This campaign is a good example of the impact we can all make in our community. It also represents thecommit­ ment we need to have for our community to work effi­ ciently. We need to take active responsibility in this community if we want it to continue to be a pleasant,safe, and healthy place to live. Schofield's platform is about .ippr^qsipg £veryone's ; involvement He has a passionate commitment to seeing that our local land is put to the best possible use. He advocates a traffic management system that will lead to a de-emphasis on single passenger cars, and encourage the use of such alternatives as mass-transit walking and biking. A key part of this plan involvesexamining existing traffic conditions to determine what problems exist. One potential solution to a current problem - congested traffic - is a restriping of 321 so that it includes bike lanes. The availability of bike paths all around the university would not only encourage biking, which would reduce noise and pollution, but it would improve the traffic situation as well. Off-road bike corridors and sidewalks would also en­ courage people to drive less. Schofield suggests that individual neighborhoods could become involved in the planning and development of sidewalks in their neighbor­ hoods. This would not only give neighborhoods control over whether or not to have them, but also where the corridors should be placed. Tied in with controlling traffic are so-called mixed-use areas. These areas would make low-impact business de­ velopment possible. This development would make it possible for neighborhoods to have things like the comer store of days gone by. Such an innovation would reduce the need for people to drive to the grocery store. The reduction of traffic flow does not mean that area businesses suffer. In fact, thecreation of shopping centers with connecting parking lots, would reduce the need for a shoppers to get out on the main road in order to reach another store. This feature would significantly reduce traffic, and the potential for accidents posed by cars leaving the parking lots. Of more immediate interest to students is Schofield's rental housing reform plan, which involves the creation of a task force that would bring together landlords and tenants to create a statement of rights and obligations that would protect both parties. The goal of such a task force would be geared toward education for students and land­ lords, thus improving relations between both groups. It would also would help create a Better Business Bureau-style board for renters which would make infor­ mation concerning tenant complaints available to the general public. This would give students more accurate information when choosing a place to live. It would also provide a mechanism by which student renters could register complaints about abuses by local landlords. A final part of Schofield's campaign focuses on hillside preservation, which would preserve the aesthetic value of our local scenery. The natural beauty of this area is what makes it so popular both with those of us who live here, as well as the tourists who visit every year. The plan emphasizes natural landscaping and the useof existing topography. The idea is to protect the rights of those who already own property, as well as ensuring that future building projects are designed to blend into the pre­ existing topography. If we do not protect the lands in this area, then Boone will be no different than any other tourist-trap, strip mall, overdeveloped kind of town. Schofield himself said it best: "We owe these mountains for our livelihood, and we cannot withdraw on them indefinitely." We have an opportunity to make a difference in our local government and community. By voting for Hunter Schofield in Oct., you can help make a positive difference.

'ET ANOTHER PROBLEM WITHHOLDER'S IDEA$ Dear Mr. Holder, In order to correct what appears to have been a misunderstanding on your part, I ask you please to note that the 1993 Fall Weekend Institute is sponsored by the Appalachian Humanities Program, not the Biology Department. The topic for this first Weekend Insti­ tute—which concerns long term environmental prob­ lems caused by error or shortsightedness on the part of human beings—was suggested by members of the Ad­ visory Council to the Humanities Program who also made recommendations for possible faculty presenters. It so happened that the faculty who were recommended and who accepted were all members oi the Biology Department: Professors Ed Greene, Matthew Rowe, and Gary Walker. The Appalachian Humanities Program has no operat­ ing budget. Its success depends largely on faculty who are generous with their time, who have an interest in fostering an appreciation of the humanities among members of the University and regional communities, and whoare willing to participate in events the Program sponsorseven without pay. In planning for the 1993 Fall Weekend Institute, the Advisory Council decided that, since all too often faculty are expected to donate their time, the faculty presenters at the Weekend Institutes should be paid at least a token amount. Professors Greene, Rowe, and Walker graciously agreed to partici­ pate before they knew of this rather nominal remunera­ tion, and did so despite their heavy teaching schedules and involvement with research which is done on thenown time. They indeed represent those who, in your words, "when considering matters of importance, have the capacity and integrity to look far beyond that which is only consistent with self-interest and personal agen­ das." "While Council members appreciate your poSitidn on the Student Activity Center, we find it regrettable that such an issue would be used to hamper the effortsof all the faculty involved in planning the 1993 Fall Weekend Institute. Undermining this pilot program will only serve to undermine the humanities and the interests of Appalachian State University and of the region; it will not affect future decisions regarding the Student Activ­ ity Center since the HumanitiesProgram is not involved in them.

I'm just i<l to ask my mom what she thinksabout it. ® Americain (NBC, Saturdays at 8:30 •) i s the best (new) example of a show that * niost too excruciatingly bad to watch. Bertinelli (One Day At A Time) stars lolly, a young divorcee who decides to to France for a new job and a new life. but Widespread's real reputation is rooted in their free-form, mind bending live perfor­ mances, which serve to accent their formi­ dable improvisational skills. The frontman isguitarist/vocalist John Bell. The other members of the sextet are lead guitarist and pentatonic wizard Michael Houser, drummer Todd Nance,groove-happy bassist Dave Schools, percussionist Her new job, after a predictable turn of events, is as a waitress at the famous hangout for Americans, the Cafe Americain. But wait, there is a catch - Holly is clumsy and spends most of her time dropping drinks on unsus­ pecting customers. Now, that's an original idea. The rest of the jokes are centered around goofy accents and language barriers. For ex­ ample, a Frenchman tells Holly that, "you really have your SHEETS together". Wow! I'm laughing so hard that my sides hurt. Oh, wait a minute... never mind, I was having a flashbacks to Perfect Strangers, silly me. * Dave's World (CBS,Mondays at8:30p.m.) has nothing, I repeat nothing, to do with David Letterman, though it is equally funny. Harry Anderson, the second of the Night Court alumni to get his own show, stars as real-life humorist, Dave Barry. Dave's World is cen­ tered around both Dave's home and office life. This entire scenario could have been boring, but Anderson, a great cast, and great writing make this World worth living in. *** The Second Half (NBC, Tuesdays at 9:30) is about a single, goofy, down on his luck, everyday Joe (played by comedian John Mendoza) who is a sports writer for a Chicago newspaper. The catch here is that he must also raise his two young daughters. The whole show seems to be carbon-copied from various other shows, including Anything But Love, Full House and Barney Miller. Wayne Knight (Jurassic Park and JFK) costars as Mendoza's neurotic editor. This show isn't bad, but it isn' t great, either. ** The Building: I don't even know when this droll, badly acted, poorly written show comes on, and I don't want to know. Bonnie Hunt (Davis Rules) plays Bonnie Kennedy, an as­ piring actress. She lives in a shabby Chicago apartment building with (go on, take a guess.) a bunch of odd-ball characters. I was even more horrified to hear that David Letterman is actually an executive producer of this trash. * T«d*Y Mr. ATTENTION MUSICIANS 'What's love' delivers at the local dollar screens BY STEVEN MACKAY REPORTER What's Love Got to Do With It has finally made its way to the area buck theaters. I saw this movie when it first came out in June, and it blew me away. I must warn whoever' sees this movie that audience members (and possibly yourself) could be shouting, jumping, cheering and dancing in the aisles. What's Love Got to Do With It is the life story of rock star Tina Tumer. It is a story full of tragedy and pain, but also with joy and success. The movie opens as we see fouryear-old AnnaMae Bullock (Tina's real name) being sent home from achurch choir rehearsal because she was singing loudly and dancing. She arrives home just as her mother and sister are leaving home, without her. At this point her grandmother assumes the responsibility of raising her. We then flash forward in time, experienc­ ing Anna Mae as a teenager being reunited with her mother and sister. She has become curious about St. Louis' legendary night life. While visiting a nightclub in which her sister works, Anna Mae becomes infatuated with a band leader named Ike Turner.

The person most impressed by Anna Mae's display of talent is Ike Turner. He tells her in an assured manner, "I can make you famous." Anna Mae, hungry for a new life, tasting fame, begins a harsh diet of constant and vigorous practice. Soon, Ike and Anna Mae fall in love and marry, and Anna Mae be­ comes Tina Turner. As Tina becomes fa­ mous, Ike grows increasingly jealous of her stardom. He hides his pain by drinking and using drugs. He vents his frustration by using Tina as his personal punching bag. Tina not only finds herself in a war with Ike, but also in a more damaging battle with herself. The performances deserve Oscars. As Tina Turner, Angela Bassett (Malcolm X), ably expresses pain, sorrow and joy at the same time. Although she doesn't actually sing, her concert scenes are breathtaking. Laurence Fishbume (Boyz N' the Hood) doesn't play Ike as a total monster, but as an angry, lost soul. What's Love Got to DoWith It more than earns it's "R" rating. The scenes depicting Ike beating and raping Tina are extremely graphic. The depiction of drug addiction, sex and explicit language make this movie for mature audiences only.

Ske TO* SCROTI fK« ro«r* SKUK K®R HELD fo X could M*" *«rs A while after I first started to write, on occasion, for The Appalachian, I devel­ oped a severe crisis of confidence. At the time, the paper was not as widely read as it perhaps is now, and I wrote almost exclu­ sively out of my own interests and experi­ ences (this is still the case). I felt that my writing and opinions were not broad enough to reach people, or that they were too lim­ ited to my own interests. After writing prolifically for a couple of years, I sud­ denly couldn't think of anything to say that I felt would be of any interest to anyone else. I quit writing completely. I accepted this job - as an editor - with great reluctance at first. I didn't think that I was going to be able to pull it off. I had written, perhaps four articles during the I previous two year span, and those four I articles were torture - they took days to put I together. Editors were calling me, desper- I ate and pissed because something wasn'tin I when it was supposed to be in. Meanwhile, I I was convinced that nobody in the world I was going to want to read any of those four I articles - reviews of three CDs that didn't I sell and a column about how difficult it was to get up in the mornings. This semester, I have decided to try to approach things differently. Laying words I down on a piece of paper is a minor act of I creation (maybe not so minor)-an obvious I truism - and there is no reason (that I have I I been able to determine) that it should be a I I horrible, maddening task. There is already I I enough angst in the world - one more I I sophomoric soul brooding for a week or I I two over the one, solitary statement that I I will cure disease and buy immortality (of a 1 I variety) adds nothing of value to our soci- | I ety. This doesn't mean that we should all I I lower our standards - it simply acknowl- I I edges that to pursue absolute and total I I perfection, for every hour of the day (we I I are not machines) is to accomplish nothing I I but burnouts, peptic ulcers and premature I I varieties of bitternessand hostility towards I I others. I think that creativity is something far I I removed from these kinds of torture, some- I I thing that is a lot closer to the "real world." I I It is something that lies within the grasp of I I every human being - in some way, and to I I make creativity into a commodity or a I I weird fetish that is socially encouraged in I I certain (but not all) individuals is to poison I I the human spirit and tosabotage the human I I future. 10 create something (in this context), I I I draw from what I have lived, and what I I I have seen, and I try to shape this montage I I of things into something with some mean- I I ing - something people can get to know me I I by, something that I can leam from or use I I to further define myself. I am discovering I I thattobeabletocreatethequasi-joumalis- I I tic streams of verbiage and chatter that I I I have had to come up with day in and day I I out during the recent weeks, I am being I I forced to shelve the pretensions that I had I I (in abundance) when I first began to write I I (I taught myself at first, by reading vast I I quantities of stuff that I came into contact I I with).

To write, I grab a pen, a notebook, and I I go. In the past, I had big, major things to I I say, and these concrete themes stood like I walls, damming the words up in my headI they couldn't get through the barrier of I having too many statementsblocking them. I Now, I generally (there are occasional I lapses) try to let the language shape itself I conversational fragments and weird babel I (thanx, Patti Smith) that doesn't sound I right is more welcome, and the content I eventually becomes clear. The words roll I out, as steady as breathing. We have no art; we just do everything I as best we can. This is a Balinese saying I which is often (maybe too often) quoted (I I arrived at it via John Cage, Marshall I McLuhan and Ernest Callenbach).

Appaneeds one s'nce die 16-inch and 18- h telescopes that are currently at the facil- ity are no longer adequate. With a grant from the NSF, equal funding from Appalachian, and private donations, the observatory will soon have a new 32-inch telescope. This telescope will be the largest one in the eastern United States. The new telescope should be here in April, but if there is no dome in which to house it, it will remain in storage. Caton said it would be a waste to leave an expensive piece of equip­ ment in boxes, but unless the observatory can raise S80,000 to build a dome, that is exactly where the new telescope will remain. Astronomy students are not required to make observations at the Dark Sky facility but most of them find themselves there for the hands-on experience. The more experience you gain through the real world, the better off you will be. No matter how hard you study books, it doesn't compare to the knowledge you gain from actual observation. After reading this, you may want to gather some friends and take a trip to Phillips Gap. Private tours are not available. Groups may make appointments for tours. Students may also take an Introduction to Astrology course that includes a trip to the observatory. /Appalachian Attitudes What's the best thing to do or place to go on Saturday night?

TERRANT - ASSISTANT Campus Pet Peeves BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR There are certain days when absolutely nothing can please me and my mood grows steadily worse as the hours creep by. Everything I come in contact with bothers me, and the only way I can over­ come this glumness is to be by myself for awhile. Normally I'm in an excellent mood; misery only seems to sneak up on me when I'm tired or something depressing has happened. However, regardless of what mood I'm in, I still have certain pet peeves I can't seem to shake. I'm sure I'm not the only person on this campus who is bothered by some of these things, so I thought I'd share them. Maybe some of the "violators" will recognize their habits and make the campus a little less stressful. Here's the first scenario: you have a huge test to study for, but your roommate refuses to be quieL You pack your books, throw on somesweats, and head out to the library. Once settled into your favorite study table, the comer of your eye catches a group of people headed toward the table beside you. They make a lot of noise, but you expect them to quieten down once they get into their studies. Unfortunately, they have loads of topics to talk about that they must have forgotten to discuss on the way over. No matter how many dirty looks they get, they remain oblivious to people around them. I can't stand this, and I'm sure that other people are both­ ered, as well. One time last year,an older student brought her two young children with her, giving them toys to play with on the floor.

BY DAMIEN CARPER REPORTER The college world was rocked by a recent report that claims the most popular form of contraception, the condom, may not be very effectiveagainstthetransmissionofHIV. The scare hit the University of Texas campus first, where theSequoia Associates Research Foun­ dation stated that their tests of the Trojan Ribbed and Trojan NaturalubeRibbed, stocked at the UT pharmacy, have failure rates ranging from 9% to 23% when tested for viral leakage. Trojan-Enz is the brand of condoms cur­ rently being handed out on the Appalachian campus. These are lubricated condoms that are not listed on the list of leakage offenders. According to Dr. William Derrick, Director of Health Services at Appalachian, the State of North Carolina makes all decisions as to what products are distributed on the campuses. Derrick said it would be impossible to make a decision as to where the condoms fit in the list until the study is published and read. As for now, the Health Service's condoms are regarded as safer than the Trojans on the list. However, Derrick said students should remember that no condom is 100% effective against viral transmission. The study identified five unrel iable condoms with viral leakage rates from 6% to 100%. Contracept Plus, the worst of the group, has been pulled from sale because of its less than satisfactory test results. Bruce Voeller, the primary investigate* of the study, created the list of five condoms he said were not reliable in preventing sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV and herpes. The list includes: Contracept Plus with a 100% failure rate, Trojan Naturalube with a 22.8% failure rate, Tahiti with a 10.3% failure rate. Lifestyles Conture with a 6.3% failure rate, and Trojan Ribbed with a 9% failure rate. However, the Ramses non-lubricated condom passed the test with flying colors possessing only a 0.9% failure rate. The manufacturer of Trojan.Carter-Wallace Inc., has challenged whether or not Voeller's findings are valid. "Carter-Wallace has conducted testing at independent laboratories and there is no evi­ dence of an HIV leakage in any of their Trojan brand condoms. If these tests by Dr. Bruce Voeller were done properly, Carter-Wallace knows of no way they could have those re­ sults," said spokesperson Ellen Sanders. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has no form of condom rating system. "We don't rank condoms...We require manufac­ turers to test to make sure condoms don't leak," said FDA spokesperson Sharon Snider. However, the FDA does perform a standard "water test" by filling the condoms with water to see if they leak. Voeller's study is a little more in-depth, testing 21 condoms over a 4 year period. Voeller tested and ranked condoms according to durability, strength, and perme­ ability. Voeller did create a list of the most reliable condoms. Included in the list are Ramses Non-Lubricated and Shiek Elite, both manu­ factured by the Schmid Laboratories, and the Gold Circle Coin made by the Aladan Corpo­ ration. Appalachian promotes veteran to sergeant BY DANE PERRY REPORTER Sandy Moretz, a security officer, was promoted from regular patrol officer to sergeant on Sept 3, making her the first female sergeant ever hired by Appalachian's University Po­ lice Moretz has worked for the University Police for the past nine years. The position became avail­ able this summer when Ser­ geant Harvey Webber retired at the end of July. When asked how she acquired the position Moretz said, "I looked out­ side the Boonearea for awh ile, then this position became available and I applied for it." Moretz is 31 years old and originally from Ashe County. She attended Appalachian from 1980 to 1984. While at Appalachian, Moretz graduated with a Bach­ elor of Science in Criminal Justice as well as with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Moretz began working with theUniversity Police as a patrol officer the same year she graduated from Appalachian. "I always wanted to work in the criminal justice area and the job was available," said Moretz, explaining why she stayed in thearea. Captain Larry Foster, a member of the hiring committee, said, "This is the first fe­ male sergeant we have hired, but not our first female officer. There was a large number of applicants, but we feel that we have hired the best possible person for the position and thatshe is an asset to the department in this position." A sergeant's job consistsof watching over two to six officers on a shift. There are three rotating shifts in the Appalachian Department in which Moretz works. "I just want to keep on contributing to the ASU Police Department. I have a lot of years left here hopefully. I'm proud to be an officer here, we have anexcellentdcpartmcnt," said Moretz. Foster added, "We hope to make a posi­ tive impression on the department through the year and Sergeant Moretzcan help us do that." AIDS isn't only STD worry AIDS is not the only threat to college stu­ dents who explore their sexuality. At least 50 other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) could threaten your life, your health and the ability to bear children in the future. "Sixty percent of new STDs reported are among people under25 years of age,and there are 12 million new infections each year," said Peggy Clarice, executive director of the Ameri­ can Social Health Association (ASHA) in North Carolina. Clarke, who stressed the price of an STD can be a lifetime of heartache, says that some serious STDs are not getting the media atten­ tion that AIDS does, leaving young people to guess about what the diseases are and how to avoid getting them. Also, because many STDs are asymptomatic, silently damaging bodies over a period of years, college students may not realize they are infected. A report released earlier in the year on the AIDS virus in the United States by Surgeon General Anlonia C. Novello brought a strong statement from Clarke. "The report's focus on HIV paints only part of the picture and does not go far enough in warning women of the tremendous risks they may be taking with their health each time they have sex," Clarke said. For example, hepatitis B, an STD that causes thousands of deaths each year due to related liver cancer and cirrhosis, is as widespread and 100 times more contagious than AIDS and infects more than 300,000 Americans annually. Only one percent of the 28 million Ameri­ cans at risk for Hepatitis B infection have been vaccinated, according to the Baltimorebased American College Health Association (ACHA). Between 6 percent and 10 percent of those infected with hepatitis B become chronic carriers of the virus, and about 25 percent of carriers develop chronic active hepatitis.

To finance the plan, Ginton proI poses to bring in $105 billion with I new sin taxes, $238 billion on reI structuring of Medicare and Mediclaid, and $47 billion in savings from I other federal health programs. There may also be an additional $51 billion in new tax revenue from companies due to lower, untaxed health costs which may result in higher wagesand profits.

The bid seeks to challenge a $7.5 billion agreement between Paramount and Viacom Inc, a major cable television company. MCA and Disney Inc. are also reportedly in contention for several assets of Paramount, one of the only remaining independent U.S. entertainment and media companies. The stock market reacted strongly with Viacom stock falling ($2.50), and Paramount ($7.50) and QVC ($.12) on the rise. The impending financial fight over j Paramount may become the biggest corporate takeoverfight in fouryears. ACCUSED NAZI RETURNS To U.S. John Demjanjuk, an Ohio autoworker accused of being Nazi war criminal "Ivan theTerrible,"came home Wednesday after a seven-year stay in an Israeli jail. He was extra­ dited to Israel in 1986 on charges of being the man who operated the gas chambers at the Treblinka death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II. The Israeli Supreme Court overturned Demjanjuk's conviction and subsequent death sentence on strong evidence he served as a guard atanotherPolish death camp, Sobibor. Due to double jeopardy, he was allowed to return to American soil. He was stripped of U.S. citizenship in 1981 for lying about his Nazi past NumerousJewishorganizationsare planning rallies and protests in his home town. Hey!

This finding, said Dr. Philip Lee, Assistant Secretary for Health, is particu­ larly disturbing"since many of these diseases are linked to smoking." It is thought that smoking is linked to 30 percent of heart disease deaths, 30 percent of cancer deaths, and 80-90 percent of chronic obstructive pulmonaiT deaths ^ved with interest the debate over Boone's £>«ismoking ordinance.

Perhaps a review of some of the PASSIVE SMOKING 1' n research on this issue would help. The research on passive smoking is growing, too. It is now SMOKING known that sidestream smoke, (the smoke rising from the cigarette ash), has a higher carcinogen concentration than evidence linking smoking to lung cancer has the 1950s.

Some say such an ordinance violates the rights of those who own private property, like restaurants. Yet, as Americans, our "social contract" obligates us sometimes to sacrifice individually for the greater com­ mon good. We do not hear such strenuous protests when government compels us to wear seat belts in our private property vehicles, nor when eating and drinking establishments are required to observe certain standards of clean- liness. Others argue that if it is legal to sell cigarettes, it should be legal to smoke them. Well, it is currently, and probably will continue to be, when done in a legal fashion that hopefully protects others' health. It is legal to sell guns, too, but not to use them in a way that endangers others. A nonsmoking ordinance will cut down on business, say some restaurateurs. What data supports this assertion, and was data collected systematically? (Surveying your cur­ rent customers is no more representative of community sentiment than surveying people who never frequent your establishment precisely because you allow smoking.) I have yet to see an unbiased study showing a negative economic impact of a nonsmoking ordinance on the food industry. Speaking of lost business, given the above evidence - espe­ cially the EPA report - it is highly unlikely, if for no other reason than the health of our children, that my wife and I will spend our money in local restaurants if one of the conditions of dining is to ingest second-hand and sidestream smoke. Who knows how many other families like us are out there? What's the cost of that lost business? There may be problems with the particulars of the proposed nonsmoking ordinance. However, the suggestion to pass a strict or­ dinance prior to the October 15 deadline is a good one. Imple­ mentation will take time, and I am hopeful cool heads will prevail. As Council member Smith noted, we can always relax an ordinance that we feel, in retrospect, is too demanding. But we cannot anticipate an opportunity, after Oct. 15, to strengthen a weak ordinance. Smoking, like alcohol, can kill you. But smoking can also kill those next to the smoker, those serving the food and drinks to the smoker, those men and women, and children, in the same dining room as the smoker. My hunch is that there is a great silent majority out there, a majority made up of people who would like to be able to patronize our local restaurant and not return home with their hair and clothes and children smelling like ashtrays. My hunch is that those who are becoming emotional and histrionic about "smokers' rights" resent being asked, for the common good, to do others the courtesy of stepping outside to smoke. It is scientifically established and indisputable that smok­ ing is hazardous to both the smoker and those around the smoker. Smokers can poison themselves if they wish, because that is really none of my business. However, I resent the indulgent, self-centered attitude that insists on theriehtof smokers to expose others to their harmful habit and its undeniably toxic consequences. Vermont, which passed a state-wide smoking ban, depends on tourism at least as much as our High Country area. If an entire state can courageously act to protect the health of its constituents, basing its decision on good science and rejecting unsupported arguments and misin­ formation, then Boone should follow suit. trive for universality in education BY DONALD WELLS TO THE APPALACHIAN FCF^CIAL ar*clfather was, as they say, an "educator" for Now retired, he nevertheless has m uch to say 'Eject of education.

To do this, it is required that -U >villin8 to go beyond their majors, their nar»in favorof seeing how it all fits together from *-ive of a chemist, teacher, actor, businessman, ihi i ^ om there is one of communication. As of now, ^ists in which both faculty and students can express the opinions and ideas of themselves and their disciplines with students and faculty in completely differ­ ent departments. The idea that biologists have nothing to say about what they consider just, or that a writer's views on science are unimportant ait the sort of thoughts which I would like to see done away with. I must stress that the forum which I have in mind is not a lecture in which people ask questions at the end of one person or several persons' speech. I have had many conversations and learned much from just talking about things with friends of mine who were physics majors and advertising majors. It is conversations and experiences such as these with people in other disciplines that has convinced me that the university should encourage and even support them within its community. Nothing par­ ticularly fancy, it would be a dialogue format in which each person questions the others in an attempt to discuss, to communicate, to learn. So students must be willing to go beyond the major, willing to step aside from their own ways of viewing the world through the lenses of their chosen disciplines and see the wisdom of other disciplines. Ignorance can be properly spoken of as "ignore- ance," of ignoring some ways of knowledge in the belief that another is superior. Rather, it is the similarities and differences, the interrelatedness of all disciplines that teaches us that none is superior, and true wisdom can be found there. A wise man once said that having the courage of one's convictions was a common error: "rather it is having the courage to attack one's convictions." I will take his meaning of attack to beto question without bias. In a semistructured intelligent discussion between students and faculty of differing disciplines, there is a forum for com­ munication where we can question ourselves and others. "The suffering man ought re­ ally to consume his own smoke; there is no good in emitting smoke till you have made it into fire." -Thomas Carlyle Our readers write... Businessman speaks out against ban To the Editqn I came home from my 14-plus-hour-a-day job (seven days a week) to listen to a message on my answering machine. The message came from a person who obviously never comes to where I work. The message said that I care more about my job than I do about any customers I serve. The person then told me that she would not be a customer of mipe. It is quite obvious that the person has never been where I work because I own the Carib­ bean Cafe. If she were a customer she would have known that it is easier to reach me there than at home. She would also know that the Caribbean Cafe has a dining room with 54 seats for non-smoking customers and a sepa­ rate room with eight seats and eight bar stools for smoking customers. She would also know that the only construction needed to be done to comply with the proposed ordinance is to add three swinging doors, replace a 4x8, lattice work with plywood, redo my duct work and install a $4,000 air conditioner. She would also know this is the biggest issue being discussed in my restaurant. Since this person did not leave a name or phone number to discuss tips with her, I must take this opportunity to address this person. I am an avid non-smoker. My severe allergies prohibit me from eating in restaurants with­ out a room designated for non-smokers. My father was released from Caldwell Memorial Hospital three weeks ago after being there with a case of pneumonia for six days. Our family physician of 31 years told fiim if he did not quit smoking it would be critical to his health. In my personal life I am definitely a non-smoking proponent. As an owner of a restaurant I have arespon­ sibility for my father's livelihood"as well as four full-time and ten part-time employees. I have used my business experience to make decisions to allow my business to grow and flourish where three other restaurants have failed. I make those decisions from talking to my customers and reacting to their wants and desires. From talking to both my smoking andnon­ smoking customers I have decided that I will lose money if I make any of the decisions the town council wants me to make. I have talked to Saul Chase and Jimmy Smith and neither one cares if I am right. They have both told me this is their personal opinion. As a businessman who must make monetary decisions daily to stay in business this atti­ tude scares me. When the city government mandates per­ sonal opinion then the town is forced into a Hitlarian approach to law. When will the city council address the subject of cholesterol causing foods? When will the council outlaw beef, pork or items made with coconut oil? If it is actually their job to protect public safety what other items will the city council address that will affect the livelihood of this area? It is not that I am pro-smoking but proindividual rights. Individuals should decide what is right for them, and, as a businessman, that should dictate what I do. To the lady who left me the message: Please come into the Caribbean Cafe and see how we are dealing with the issue of non-smokers coexisting with smokers, and tell me your views on government involvement in the lives of people and businesses.

I doubt that this song is about safe sex, as one friend of mine sug­ gested—but who knows? This is an upbeat tune which drags about a minute and a half too long, in spit of its nice bass lines. The next cut, In Love with It All, is one Tim co-wrote with his brother—it's a leftoverfrom the Woodface sessions. This is the first "keeper" for me on the album—I'm definitely a sucker for the three-and-a-half minute pop number. I also appreciate the more acoustic/ less computerized feel of this simpler produc­ tion. Next up is followed by Persuasion, a tune Tim co-wrote with ex-Fairport Convention­ eer/folk guitar hero Richard Thompson (one of my personal faves). The result of their collaboration is one of the tastiest pop morsels I've found in ages. The hooks (vocal and instrumental) are too numerous to mention. Nice mandolin work. Many's the Time (in Dublin) follows Per­ suasion and continues the pleasing simplistic trend of the previous cuts. Finn co-wrote this one with Liam O'Maonlai (Hothouse Flow­ ers) and Andy White (noted for his work with John Wesley Harding). Nice bagpipes on this tune. Funny Way may be the cut I return to more than any other. It's that kind of song that's up and happy without being too busy or technoed beyond humanity. A great driving song; it clocks in at under three minutes so it's over before its clichds become abrasive. The next track is a throw-away. Can't Do Both is five minutes of obtrusive layers of echoed lyrics and electric sounds that amount to nothing. Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley produced this mess. They also produced the opening cut, which was redeemed because of its lyric's message. Can't Do Both has no saving grace. In Your Sway is a bowl full of salad (check that—it's a soulful ballad) which will appeal to those of you who are in love. This is sappy, though not offensively so. The harmony vo­ cals are good here. Dror Erez contributes some effectively subtle piano work. Strangeness and Charm is another Brothers Finn piece left over from Woodface. This (and other tracks) benefit from instrumental and vocal contributions from Hothouse Flow­ ers, but this number runs a bit long and gets quite busy toward the end. Come on, You can admit it— You watched it! BY JODI L. TALLLEY DIVERSIONS ASSISTANT EDITOR W&:- . As a member of Split Enz and Crowded House, songwriter Tim Finn helped to redefine pop music in the 80s. His latest solo disc, Before & After, is out now. (Photo by Ziggy Crowe) Always Never Now is (unfortunately) an­ other Langer/Winstanley production. While this one is not the highlight of the album, it's infinitely superior to the horrendous Can't Do That . This one is saved by excellent vocals and lyrics. Tim takes a walk on the syncopated side with Walk You Home. His vocals are a little Billy-Joelesque here—not necessarily a bad thing, just odd. This is easily the best (read: sparsest) of the Langer/Winstanley produc­ tions on Before & After. I Found It is, I suppose, an explanation of the eleven tunes which precede it. The fal­ setto vocals are memorable, and I'd love to hear an acoustic version, but the over-heavy bass on this one just turned me off. Interesting notes: the best tunes on this album are the ones which Tim either pro­ duced himself or co-produced. I will be wary of any future recording from any artists who have been cursed with Langerand Winstanley as producers. Fans of the Finn brothers should look forward to a new Crowded House release in early 1994. "lie Juliana Hatfield Three rocks on new disk BY KIRSTIE FISCHER REPORTER release from The Juliana Hatfield Three, Become What You Are, is ^ble now from Mammoth Records. Pictured, left-right: Todd Philips, Hatfield, Dean Fisher. (Photo by Tom Sheehan) DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR JODI TALLEY - ASSISTANT I hate my sister, she's such a bitch. It takes a unique individual to utter words this simple and make them sound like a profound artistic statement. Maybe that's what I love about Juliana Hatfield. Her brutal honesty and unpreten­ tious talent allow her to evoke a wide variety of emotions in her songs, from childlike sim­ plicity toraw anger. Her latesteffort, Become What You Are, is no exception to this. From The Blake Babies to The Lemonheads, to her growing body of solo work, Hatfield has been around long enough to have made quite a name for herself. Her singsong-ish voice set against powerful gui­ tars has practically become her trademark. This time out, she is joined by bassist Dean Fisher and drummer Todd Phillips to create The Juliana Hatfield Three. It's really unususal to find a performer comfortable enough with herself to write as un-selfconsciously as Hatfield does. So many current "alternative" acts are so (over) con­ cerned with sounding "cool" that they bypass an essential element of what makes an album great: honesty. When I listen to a song, I want something that I can relate to lyrically, as well as some­ thing that blows my mind musically. Hatfield has mastered the art of combining both quali­ ties, and her work is remarkably strong for this reason. Become is filled with lyrics so per­ sonal and straightforward that I felt like I was reading a friend's diary. Songs like I Got No Idols describe Hatfield's self reliance and independence. My Sister, the first track released as a single from the disc, unabashedly describes the vari­ ety of emotions Hatfield feels regarding an older sister (a bit confusing perhaps, since Hatfield actually has no sister). The first few times I listened to this disc, I was impressed with iton a technical level; the songs showcased a lot of power and energy, as well as an amazing amount of instrumental and vocal talent. Then I started focusing on what the songs were really saying, and I was stunned by the quality of what I was hearing. Hatfield has the uncanny ability to sing about things that hit so close to home, I almost felt as if she had been spying on me. I think a lot of people would be able to relate toa song like For The Birds, which describes her anxiety over a number of social problems, and how helpless she seems to feel when it comes to making a difference. The heart of the song revolves around her occasional desire to just escape from it all - hence the title of the song. I also fell in love with Little Pieces, a song that describes the common problem of appearing to be strong and "together," when you are actually falling apart emotionally. Feelin' Massachusetts discusses another trap we can all occasionally fall into: that of stagnation. "Tell me something I really want to know/take me somewhere I really want to go/introduce me to someone really cool.J just want to be entertained/I want to feel alive again." As college students, we can all relate to feeling stuck, being bored, and yearn­ ing to break out of a rut and try something new. This tune sums up all of the above perfectly. The diversity of the album is one of its key strengths - at one point, Hatfield may be fuming with feministanger (i.e. Supermodel, Dame With A Rod), and at another, she may be spinning a fantasy of fooling around with a cute B-movie star (Spin the Bottle),or the nervous anticipation of falling in love (Ad­ dicted). She never comes across as insincere, and her honesty makes it easy to relate to her concerns throughout Become What You Are. Hatfield's guitar abilities have contin­ ued to improve, and her new rhythm section (Fisher and Phillips) backs her unconven­ tional compositions in a remarkably effec­ tive fashion. The Juliana Hatfield Three is not to be missed, and Become What You Are features some of her strongest work yet. Grade:*****(out of five) It's that time of year again, time for a new Miss America. Even the least in­ formed person knows about this pageant Therefore, this awareness brings out a great deal of controversy, and because I love a good social dilemma, I thought I should throw in my personal critique of this year's pageant. What bugged me, as always, were the forty contestants left after the naming of the ten semifinalists. I mean, really! If somebody asked me to dance around and make a complete fool of myself, lipsynching to some cheesy Gloria Estefan medley, I would laugh in their face! Yet somehow these brave young ladies carry on gracefully. Still, it's obvious that, given the opportunity, each of them would send Miss Georgia sliding down the runway on her butt! I really don't think it's fair to prolong their agony. Just give them a nice consolation prize and send them home to cry in their Hagen Daas and their Diet Coke! Then, there was this business of talent. If this competition accounts for thirty percent of the contestant's overall score, you would expect the semifinalists to be most profi­ cient in their talents. Unfortunately, events tend to turn in a most unpleasant direction. Call me crazy, but to me, the word "talent" implies some sort of mastery or skill. I realize that these women are under a great deal of pressure, but they should not feel obligated to humiliate themselves in pub­ lic. I for one believe that talent is more than singing and dancing. And I don't know about you, but my mama taught me, "If you can't carry the tune, don't pick it up." It seems like a simple enough rule to follow. Think about it I would much rather see Miss Michigan derive the Quadratic Equa­ tion, if that is her true skill, than to hear her totally destroy some Broadway standard. Even as politically incorrect as it may be, I wouldn't even mind it if Miss New York baked a cake if she would so choose. My point is this: let the judges and the audience see these women as individuals through their own aptitudes, no matter how obscure they may be. Now—the swimsuit competition. Should it be totally eliminated from the pageant? I think that it should remain a part of the pageant, but hear me out. Even my grand­ mother would feel overdressed in one of these beauties! But wearing heels with a bathing suit is just not something a thinking woman would do. I think that instead of taking categories away, there should be some new ones added. My personal favorite would be the this-iswhat-I-look-like-first-thing-in- the-morning category. This would be an opportu­ nity for the judges and the audience to see the contestants without the benefits of make­ up and curling irons. And if this is a scholarship contest, I want to see some GPA's!! Maybe we should even have an essay portion of the evening. I want proof that these people are literate! Come to think of it, this may be a good format for presidential elections, j ust as long as Clin ton doesn't insist on wearing a Speedo. I interrupt my slam on, I mean critique of, the pageant to say a few nice words. You mustadmit thepageant is fun towatch. I have always enjoyed myself, at the ex­ pense of the contestants. Admit it! You too have watched and enjoyed! You have even picked a favorite,and when she didn't win you were mad! Ladies, at one time or another, you have sat while you watched and made snide comments like, "Oh my God! Her thighs are huge!" or, "If her hair was any higher NASA would have to be her stylist!" Confess! Guys, in the deep (or not so deep) recesses of your minds, you have dreamed of saying to your friends, "Yeah, my girlfriend is Miss America, but really, its no big deal." What I'm really trying tosay in this article, is that no matter what the rest of us think, these ladies choose to be a part of this pageant. They seem to be happy with their choice, and in this world, to be happy is a great achievement. So, congratulations Miss Kimberly Clarice Aiken. You represented South Carolina and all of the South well. �THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 23 SEPTEMBER 1993 PAGE 6 P. S.

A arm right before last year's official season hindered her performance. "I played No. 3 after I broke my arm be­ cause I didn't heal in enough time to regain the level I was playing," Wein said. Completely healed and ready to play, Wein is excited about this year's season. This past weekend, the ASU Women's Tennis team played, and Wein won her first match 6-1, 6-2, making it to the second round of the top playing bracket of the tourna­ ment. Wein said, "ETSU was a good tour­ nament to get under our belt. I hope . to continue getting better and be prepared for the Southern Conference Tournament this spring." The Women's Tennis team will play again this weekend at East Carolina University. "I hope that the Boone weather doesn't effect practice time so we can do our best," says Wein. Although a determined individual, Wein is no doubt a strong team player and always supports her team. "I know that we have the talent to do really well," said Wein. "All we have to do is win those close matches. Our team has a lot of character. It's an individual sport but we work well together as a team." If modesty, kindness, and determination are the ingredients of champions, then Peggy Wein should have no problem accomplishing her goals. PHIL MCCARN - EDITOR DAVID KITTRELL - ASSISTANT Dallas Head Coach Jimmy Johnson was frustrated.The players were frustrated. You deserve a pat on the back, Jer. Yessireebob. Congratulations on a job well done. Maybe you'll even get the NFL Execu­ tive of the Year award! Last year, the Cowboys looked like they were ready to take a jaunt as the next NFL dynasty. Instead, Jones decided to sacrifice the beginning of this season trying to play hardball with Smith. He not only sacrificed the first two games, but something even more important - the aura of invincibility. After last year's annual thrashing of the Buffalo Bills (the Super Bowl), the Cowboys looked like they could steamroll through the league for the next few years. So much for cohesion, Jer. The Cowboys won this past Sunday, but over a mediocre Phoen ix Cardinals team. The 17-10 victory was not very impressive. Smith didn't start, but had 40 yards rushing on the day. Not a great contribution, but better than nothing. Let's get back to the subject of cohesion. I suspect had Smith been primed and revved up on opening day, he would already haveat least 300 yards on the year instead of only 40. And the Cowboys would be 3-0. For the rest of the year, we will hear that no Super Bowl champion has ever gone 0-2 to start a season and repeated as champion. People across America will be watching to see if Dallas can beat the odds. Now, thanks to good 'ol Jer, they will have to work harder, and will probably have a rougher road in the playoffs (compared to last year). Oh, and yes, they will make the playoffs. So, was it worth it Jer? Did you really think we thought that you would let Sm ith sit out the year? I am glad that the worst bluff in the history of sports is over. Before Sunday's game, Smith stated, "I'm no savior." Well, that's true. But he's the closest thing to Mother Theresa that Dallas will be able to find. So Jer, you better start saying your prayers at night and hope that Smith is your savior. Or one Sunday you may find yourself tied at the stake on the points of that big gray star on the football field in Dallas, being stoned by thousands of Cowboy fans. And if I wereJimmy Johnson and his players, I would cast the first stone. Mountaineers finish last MARK MURNANE REPORTER One week after beginning the season on an encouraging note,the Appalach ian Men'sGolf team struggled to a last place finish at the Kiawah Island Intercollegiate Golf tourna­ ment on Tuesday. The University of Houston, paced by a tournament record first round score of 273, cruised to a ten stoke victory over second place UNC Charlotte. Del Ponchock of Mary­ land took the individual title with a 72-hole combined score of 200. The Apps played fairly well for the first 36 holes of the tournament, shooting scores of 302 and 304. The third round was a disaster, however, as the Mountianeers ended the com­ petition with a final round score of 321, plum­ meting the team to the bottom of the stand­ ings. Head coach Sam Adams credited the team's woes to several factors. "We played against much stronger compe­ tition than we did at Guilford (last week's competition)," said Adams,adding that Hous­ ton is one of the best teams in the country. Adams took personal blame for the disap­ pointing finish,saying that the primary reason for the team's third round fold was "lousy coaching." Leading the Apps at Kiawah was junior Jason Smith, who shot a 227, placing him 62nd overall. Following Smith was senior Brian Marshburn (232, tied for 72nd), junior Jason Yound (232, tied for 72nd), sopho­ more Jeff Waltzer (241, 84th), and Travis Issacs (253,87th). In winning the individual tournament, Ponchock of Maryland shot a course record 65 during the second and third rounds. The Apps head back onto the links next Monday in Florida at the Jacksonville Invitational Tournament. Adams hopes to fair better next week and adds that he will try some new players for this toumamenL The team has thirteen members, but the team can only send five to compete at any tournament. In choosing players to send to competitions, Adams says he uses a depth chart as well as coaching intuition. The following are the final team results for the Kiawah Island Intercollegiate Golf Tournament: 1st - University of Houston (854), 2nd - UNC Charlotte (864), 3rd ETSU (865) & Winthrop (865), 5th - Kent State (867) & Maryland (867), 7th - Virginia Tech (869), 8th - College of Charleston (871), 9th - East Carolina (873) & Florida State (873), 11th - Old Dominion (881), 12th - Richmond (888), 13th - Coastal Caro­ lina (889), 14th - UT Chattanooga (897), 15th - Wofford (907), 16th - The Citadel (913), 17th - Appalachian State University (927). Inside linebacker Dexter Coakley had 18 tackles, 12 of which were solos, one pres­ sure, and a pass block last Saturday in the Wake Forest game. Coakley had his third straight double-digit tackle performance. He has a total of 45 tackles on the year. Cornerback Donnell Brinson of Western Carolina, Chattanooga cornerback Travis Hampton, and Marshall linebacker Brian Stump all received votes. The offensive player of the week in the conference is junior quarterback Kenyon Earl of the UT-Chattanooga Moccasins. In a 59-34 victory over Gardner-Webb in Chat­ tanooga, Earl completed 11 of 15 passes for 261 yards and six touchdowns. He averaged 27.7 yards per completion. His six TD passes set a personal high, team high, and tied the conference single game record by one QB, set by Tim Russell of The Citadel against Furman in 1978. Other nominees were: se­ nior quarterback Lonnie Galloway of West­ ern Carolina and Marshall sophomore tailback Chris Parker, who won the honor •last week. Senior linebacker William King of Marshall was named as the defensive player of the week. He made 16 tackles, seven solos, two tackles for losses, including one sack, and two quarterback pressures last Saturday. King helped his Thundering Herd defeat the Georgia Southern Eagles, 13-3. King leads the team in tackles this season with 42 stops. The Marshall defense al­ lowed just six points in three games this season. This is the first time since 1947 that a Marshall defense has held opponents to that level of offensive output. Sophomore cornerback Mike Collins of UT-Chattanooga, senior inside linebacker Brent David at Appalachian State, senior nose guard Tony Johnson of Western Caro­ lina, and junior VMI free safety Kevin Reardon were also nominees. No. 1 MARSHALL LEADS Two OTHER SC TEAMS INTO SPORTS NETWORK POLL The Marshall Thundering Herd, fresh off its 13-3 win over Georgia Southern, is topranked in this week's Sports Network Poll. Georgia Southern comes in at #8 this week. Western Carolina sits at #11 this week, following its win over The Citadel. THE CITADEL AND APPALA­ CHIAN PLAY FOR FIRST WIN The two teams play each other Saturday night at 7 p.m. in Charleston, South Caro­ lina. Both are still winless so far this year. The Citadel has had five straight non-losing seasons. The Mountaineers have had eight consecutive winning seasons. In other matchups around the league: VMI will head up to West Point to take on Army in a battle of military academies, Western Carolina hosts North Carolina A&T, East Tennessee State travels to Furman with a chance to take over first place in the league, and Tennes­ see-Chattanooga heads south to play #8 Georgia Southern. Marshall is idle this week. GRETZKY SIGNS NEW DEAL Wayne Gretzky, star of the Los Angel Kings, signed a new $25.5 million doll contract This deal makes him the highe: paid»player in the NHL. His paycheck w amount to $13.5 million for three years, wi the remainder distributed over the next sev years. AL EAST LEADING BLUE JAYS WIN AGAIN The Toronto Blue Jays spanked the Bos ton Red Sox by a 5-0 score Tuesday. Toronto has now won nine straight games, their longest winning streak since 1986. The first 13 Red Sox hitters were retired by Toronto pitching. Toronto can clinch the division title this weekend as they face the second place Yankees at the Skydome. �THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 23 SEPTEMBER 1993 PAGE 10 Leave your car while in class!

A division of Student Pros, ACT is involved with over thirty "^V^-iizations, offering diverse opportunities "jk in human services and environmental j^/tany people have limited views on what ^iteerism is," said Peggy Setzer, director ^ ACT Program. "We also have a probr -with our visibility on campus, people ing what ACT is," Setzer continued, lunteering in the ACT Program chal­ ks students to make a commitment to j-runity concerns and, in return, many V, nts feel enriched by their experiences in . others. The program allows students p fcyf-come more aware of their talents and 'vC.s them a better understanding of social 1 ues. Setzer comments, "No previous exis required—only a willingness to and share your time, your talents, and yourself." To become a volunteer, an application may be picked up at the ACT office, room 113, in Plemmon's Student Union. Upon returning the application with references, a twentyminute interview will be scheduled. "Thiswill let us know what type of volunteering the student is interested in," explains Setzer. After being interviewed, the student will take a three-hour general training course, though the agencies working with ACT have their own training courses as well. The re­ maining dates for the training course this se­ mester are Sept. 22 and 28, and Oct. 17. In the training course, students will be taught important communication skills, such as "ac­ tive listening." Setzer stresses that volunteers must consider how much time and energy they are willing to invest in the training and in the program. The types of volunteering available through ACT include working with children and youth, the handicapped and the elderly. Students may volunteer with health care, women's is­ sues, community concerns, environmental action and Appalachian culture.

The broadcasts usually are emotional and non-denominational, consisting of singing, praying, reading of let­ ters, announcements, and short sermons. 'The broadcasts are very color­ ful," Dorgan said. "Many are just the preacher and his or her singers." Dorgan said he prefers the term "plain-folk reli­ gion" to refer to the religions he studies.

This program, for the pre-schoolers of low-income families, helps the children with their social and emotional needs as they enter their first year of school. Volunteers are needed to monitor school buses to and from school, as well as assist with the children during theday. Leslie Ho wser, of the Headstart program, stated, "We need volunteers in an ongoing basis." About the volunteers already working in the program, Howser commented, "Our volunteers are really consistent and reli­ able, and we always try to acknowledge their help." One of the programs for handicapped cli­ ents is Blazing Saddles. Volunteers, who cannot be afraid of horses, help on Saturdays with the riding program. Volunteers are also needed for fundraising for this program. ACT has many opportunities to volunteer with the elderly community. Pet Therapy *nembcr of dlachian's Ity since •*-.

Bikes invade Appalachian BY VALERIE THOMPSON APPALACHIAN NEWS BUREAU The campus is less than 5 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, near the highest peaks east of the Mississippi River, so it seems only natural forAppalachian students toown moun­ tain bikes. These bicycles can be a nuisance. Brad Reid, Director of Residence Life at Appalachian, called the bike situation "a housekeeping nightmare." Reid said that one of the problems is that the bicycle tires leave marks on floors when students ride the bikes inside. Because bicycles are expensive (ranging in price from $300 to$1,000), students are hesi­ tant to leave them outside where they could be Many students opt to store their bik^ in their rooms in the residence halls, where space is limited. The largest rooms at Appa­ lachian are approximately 300 square feet; the smallest are 140 square feet. The univer­ sity provides beds, desks, dressers and clos­ ets for residents. In efforts to create wore living space for themselves, students devise all kinds of plans, such as hanging bicycles from ceilings—a practice which notonly damages the ceilings, but is also unsafe. In an effort to accomodate the needs of bikers on campus, Appalachian has started a project which will provide parking spaces for more than 400 bikes. The new bike racks allow cyclists to lock the entire frames of their bikes to the racks—which makes the bikes much less suceptible to theft. stolen^ordamagcd^^^^^^^^^^^^ (File photo) Win or lose ... Does it matter? BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR It has become a custom for everyone I know to keep up with how our football team is doing, especially those who don't go to Appalachian. Every time I talk to someone from home, the score in the newspaper has been carefully read and never fails to be reported to me over the phone. "So, I see Appalachian's having a rough season," my father saysjjehuckling. What people don't understand is that it really doesn't make that much of a differ­ ence to me how our teamjsjjjoing. Reading the scores in the newspaper only gives the straight facts. No one seems to completely understand how thrilling it is to get caught up in the excitement of the game itself. Spending this past weekend at the Wake Forest game reinforced my opinion on this. Even though the purpose of the trip was to see the game, football ended up being only a small part of the fun. There were so many other attractions surrounding the football game that thefinal scorewas forgotten in no time. There is a sense of unity among Appala­ chian fans at an away game. Just as we were getting closer to the stadium, we started passing cars with brilliant yellow Appala­ chian flags attatched to the windows. Not only were we able to follow these cars to the stadium (we were quite lost by this time), we were also excited to see someone who was on our side. The tailgate party was also a memorable part of the trip. Carloads of Appalachian fans were gathered together in a parking lot, eating, drinking, and playing music from their car stereos. Even alumni were there with their lawn chairs and folding tables. Alumni always seem to have interesting "ASUparaphemalia;" I saw everything from black and gold knitted chair covers to per­ sonalized license plates. It's strange how there was more spirit at that tailgate party than at many of our home games. Students and alumni came together as a strange type of community; people who didn't know each other were talking and joking like old friends. Maybe we knew what type of game was ahead, or maybe we simply didn't care and just wanted to enjoy the company of "fellow mountaineers." When it came time for the game to start, everyone began filtering through the gates and into the stands. I was surprised to find that the visitor side was almost as full as Wake Forest's home side. Even those of us who don't have deep feelings for football can still stay amused during the game. I sitand watch Yosef play with the other school's mascot or watch drunk fans stumble up the stadium steps. I even bought a big, salty pretzel at the Wake Forest game which I had been craving ever since I saw someone else bite into one. When the game itself begins to get a little t slow (it drives me crazy how it can take w twenty minutes just to run five minutes off the clock), keep in mind that there's always some other type of sideshow going on. My favorite part of a football game (I have to admit) is the marching band. I insisted on staying for at least part of the production even though my friends wanted to leave. Our band absolutely dwarfed Wake Forest's band, both in size and in the show they presented. Even if we didn't win the football game, we can still come away proud of the half-time show our school puts on. If anyone were to ask me what the highlightofmy weekend was,the actual football game would be quite a ways down the list. It would fall somewhere behind coloring in paper menus at the restaurant where we ate dinner and watching a late movie in our hotel room. I'll remember our Wake Forest trip for years, but the score of the football game probably won't even be a part of the memory. I wish it could be otherwise, but the Wake Forest game won't be the last game we'll lose. There will be several other afternoons when the team will walk off the field tired and frustrated. The fans will leave the stadium only to go home and celebrate something other than a victory. Soon the phone calls will come roll ing in: "I saw the score in the paper the other day...must not have been a very exciting game," your sister will say. But of course you can smile to yourself while you hang up • the phone because your sister has no idea how much fun you had cheering the team on I anyway. �THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 23 SEPTEMBER 1993 PAGE 12 Ladies play at Charleston Invitational BY DAVID KITTRELL ASSISTANT EDITOR her place in the top ten."

Picketers demand landfill cleanup EW APPALCART ROUTES SHUT DOWN NEWS DEPARTMENT WEEKDAY EDTION APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE «NC 28608 Members of the community picket outside the county courthouse on Friday, demanding that the county clean up the Bamboo Landfill before it is closed, (photo by John Heisel) Local citizens and members of the Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League pick­ eted outside the Watauga County Courthouse Friday to protest the county's handling of the Bamboo Community landfill closing, which will take place in October. Watauga County isclosing the landfill within the next few weeks and some town citizens fear the County will not clean it up. "We are asking for a commitment to clean closure of the landfill," said Susan Sharp, an officer of the Blue Ridge Environmental De­ fense League. Watauga County will close the landfill be­ fore Oct. 9 in order to avoid the financial burden of regulations which "Subtitle D" po­ tentially may impose, according to Mark Combs, the Operation Services Director for Watauga County. "Subtitle D" is part of a federal document. It states the minimum re­ quirements and regulations implemented on closing landfills. The Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League opposes immediate closure of the land­ fill. Under the regulations of "Subtitle D," Watauga County would have to administer to many requirements such as posting money for thirty years of periodic groundwater testing, according to Combs. "It is an issue of economic common sense," says Combs. The landfill can only function for six more months. According to Combs, closing the landfill now and exercising Watauga County's Groundwater Assessment plan may save the county millions of dollars. "We are under an assessment plan specifi­ cally designed for landfills. The plan meets or exceeds 'Subtitle D' requirements," says Combs. Authorities of Watauga County have the ability to petition to designate the contami­ nated landfill and the surrounding Bamboo Community as a restricted area which would relieve them of cleaning up the landfill, ac­ cording to Lou Zcller of the Blue Ridge Envi­ ronmental Defense League. Commissioners will discuss the issue at their meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 22 at 7 p.m. Since 1984, Watauga County's landfill has had a detected leachate problem. Leachate is a non-toxic substance composed of rain and groundwater that percolates through garbage. Contamination in private wells around the landfill was determined in early 1993. Vola­ tile organic compounds have been found in surface and groundwater tests; however, the full extent of the contamination will take several years to study according to Janet Hoy le, Statewide President of the Blue Ridge Envi­ ronmental Defense League. Appalachian expects University Legal Service renovation dollars program discontinued BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR University buildings in need of repairs will be renovated when the N.C. University System Board of Governors approves Appalachian's list of projects. The N.C. General Assembly allocated $31,350,000 to the UNC system for rennovation projects this year and the Board of Governors will appropriate the money. Appalachian is scheduled to receive $1,786,000 for repair and rennovation projects. Projects that Dr. Ward Zimmerman, vice chancellor for business affairs described as "much needed and pressing" are listed be­ low and will likely to be approved by the Board of Governors. Academics, administration and service buildings will get $1,536,000 million for repairs and rennovations and the remaining $250,000 will go toward water system rennovation and replacement. Chapel W Ilson Hall will receivecomplete roof replacement and window and door re­ pairs. Rankin Science Building will have sev­ eral laboratory spaces removed toaccomodate minimal requirements for Chemistry, Biol­ ogy, Physics and Astronomy. Welborn Hall's Chancellor's Dining Room will have non-functioning, code violating windows and doors replaced. Smith-Wright Hall will receive window and door replacements. Edwin Duncan Hall will be rennovated. The areas to be renovated include public space, classrooms, and offices. Varsity Gymnasium will have flooring worn out due to overuse and resandings re­ placed. University Office Repairs, which includes numerous buildings, will receive rennovation of office space and restroom facilities. White Hall and East Hall Student Computer Centers will have air conditioning installed. Thelma C. Raley Hall will receive rennovations to correct cold air infiltration, repair brick surfaces, and provide emergency electrical power system to the computer cen­ ter. Broyhill Music Center will convert space to make recording studio for Music Industry Studies Program. BY HOLLY CRANE REPORTER Students can no longer get free advice through the legal services program, which has been offered on campus for over ten years, due to budget cuts and lack of student interest. The program allowed students who ran into difficulty with the law off campus to receive advice from an attorney who was available eight hoursa week. According to Lee McCaskey,direclor of Student Judicial Affairs, most of the students who went into the office thought the attorney would go to court for them. McCaskcy said that "stu­ dents would leave feeling misled because they were referred to another attorney." According to McCaskey, the program was not cost efficient "For an attorney tocome into the office for eight months, it cost $14,000," said McCaskcy. The $14,0(X) used to fund the program came out of the student activities fund, which is paid for with sludenlfees. Accord­ ing to Dr. Greg Blimling, Vice Chancellor of Student Development, the money that was used to fund the legal services pro­ gram has gone back into the student activities fund. "The $14,000 went back into the stu­ dent activities fund and was used to pay a deficit in the student activities fund and an increase in wages," said Blimling. The student activities budget council decided where the money was going to be used. Blimling said there is possibility of hir­ ing a mediator instead of an attorney. The mediator would handle small problems such as discrepancies between roommates. Accordingto Blimling, die mediator would be hired if enough student interest was generated. Will a legal services program be offered again at Appalachian? McCaskey was not sure that would happen. J.D. Adams, president of the Student Government As­ sociation, said "We (SGA) will look into it if there is a student response."

And if there are any pertinent disagree*^\vith ideas in my texts, please feel free to address a letter to the editor. » - vvorld is in dire need of a consistent philosophy, ^^jphy has guided mankind through history, most of . for the worse. A complete system of philosophy n illustrated in our century by Ayn Rand. "Rational ^^v'ism" is the name given to this system that advo0t>jective reality in its metaphysics, reason as its ^err,ol°gy. rational self-interest as its ethic, and laissez- capitalism asits politics. These primaries of "Objec" are beacons of truth, protectors of liberty, and the ^j-^tion of life. jvf«taphysics (the nature of reality), objective Uy. Ayn Rand said, "Existence Exists and the act of ryirig that statement implies two corollary axioms: that c tTii *ig exists which one perceives and that one exists jessing consciousness, consciousness being the facperceiving that which exists." This definition 0f eSS^s the primacy of existence over consciousness. In r words, knowledge presupposes something to know someone to know it These absolutes cannot be pod- To pronounce denial of them implies their use acceptance. If this is not clear, try to fathom the orients, "I think therefore I must not be," or "I can prove my non-existence and non-consciousness." The third axiom, and subordinate to Existence and Consciousness, is the Law of Identity. This law in Aristotle's words is, "being qua being," or that every "existent," (every thing), has a specific nature. 'To be is to be something, a thing is what it is. This leads to the fundamental principle of all action, the law of causality" (Leonard Peikoff). The law of causality holds that a thing's actions are determined by what it is; not by chance. The universe exists independent of consciousness. Facts are facts independent of our perception, wishes, or beliefs. Francis Bacon said, "nature to be commanded must be obeyed." The acceptance and apprehension of reality is the function of consciousness. Nothing can alter natural laws and nothing can erase facts like, "existence exists," "you cannot eat your cake and have it too," and "A=A." The grand list of philosophies that attempt to deny reality and hence hold an intrinsic hatred for mankind are: Platonism, Christianity, German idealism (Kant, Hegel), and any other school whose fundamental notion is that consciousness creates reality. Anything besides the ac­ ceptance of reality is the equivalent of death. Perhaps we might later see how these intellectual troughs are histori­ cally the source of pain and strife in the world. 2. Epistemology (the source of knowledge), and Rea­ son. A metaphysical acceptance of objective reality implies the tool for accepting it. It is man's basic tool for survival. Reason as defined by Ayn Rand is, "the faculty that identifies and integrates the material provided by man's senses." Concept-tormauon is tne human ability that gives reality and reason their validity. Concepts refer to facts of reality. Concepts severed from reality are arbitrary and hopeless abstractions, that render mankind impotent and blind. Philosophy has "problems with universals." Plato refers concepts to a supernatural alternate reality. The Kantian school holds concepts as subjective creations of the mind, and independent of reality. What­ ever the view is that castrates a person's basic tool for survival, is the view that poisons and limits one's mind. The human mind at its genesis isas Locke and Aristotle expressed, tabula rasa. There are no innate ideas, for our senses inscribe our "clean slate," mind. Through conceptualization, we organize our perceptions: 'To form a concept, one isolates two or more similar concretes from the rest of one's perceptual field, and integrates them into a single mental unit, symbolized by a word. A con­ crete subsumes an unlimited number of instances: the concretes one isolated, and all others (past, present, and future) which are similar to them" (Peikoff). One omits specific measurement upon retaining similar characteris­ tics of concretes. One may conceptualize an abstraction "pen," but there are x variations of its shape. One retains at least two characteristics; it writes and it holds ink. This is a simple illustration of the Randian "conceptual com­ mon-denominator." Mysticism and skepticism are the nemeses of Reason. The mystic seeks either divine illumination or intuition and makes man's means of cognition inadequate. The skeptic agrees that the cognitive, volitional mind is inad­ equate or invalid, but denies the "divine" part. It is the mystic's emotions that he sees as his "pipeline to the beyond." For the skeptic it is merely his "emotions" that are his guide. Any variation of these like (nihilism or agnosticism) is invalid. This column has synopsized the "metaphysics," and "epistemology" portion of Objectivist philosophy. The "ethics" and "politics" sections of my thesis will be observed in a continuation next week. education better than threat of damnation BY MATT SCIALDONE COLUMNIST iew periodical named The Messenger has arrived on IUS tltisyear. In the introduction of its premier issue, mblisher and editor state that their "goal is not to ase, but to provoke -intellectual stimulation". Stimu- ts not the word for the way this publication has led me; incensed is re appropriate term, recurring theme in primarily Christianpaper is the "indocion" that occurs in :lassrooms.

Theedierr*s tobeoverlook^ fact that he is practicing indoctrination through his Message. The entire Christian morality system is ' °n indoctrination. I ask the editor of the paper, p -A- Mullis, when you were "taught" the morals and s your Christian faith? Were you educated or ^riated? 0|-Lcr section of The Messenger asks questions such ^en did abortion become pro-choice? " When did >Sex*jality, bi-sexuality, transvestitism, and sadoC^»SIT1 become alternate lifestyles?" When did the ®ecome fiction? I would like to know when Mr. °f Mullis threw some of the most basic principlesof the Bible out the window? Upon my last thumbing of the Bible, I distinctly recall phrases such as "Love the sinner but hate the sin", and "He who is without sin shall cast the first "stone". Mr. Mullis asks when all these horrible aspects of society became accepted? I say this occurred when people began to realize the contradictory message that Christian fundamentalists extol. People no longer want to be damned by the hypocritical religious institutions that, according to their own doctrines, are supposed to accept all people. The Messenger also brings up the point that allowing clean needles and condoms into schools but not the Bible is a social travesty. Maybe if America had a stronger moral background we would not have problems like drug abuse and AIDS, but itdoes not. Thereare problems in this country that need to be addressed NOW. Trying to indoctrinate both children and adults through religion just takes too much time. Giving these people a means to practice the life that they would more than likely practice no matter what the Bible says in a safe way is the more realistic approach to the problem at hand. Educating the children of tomorrow and the adults of today about the dangers of drug use and unprotected sex will do more good than ramming eternal damnation down their throats. The first edition of The Messenger also contains an article about Anthony Falzarano, a man who claims he went through the remarkable change from a sworn homo­ sexual to a "normal" straight man. The Messenger views this change as "good news", as if the man had a fatal disease. Mr. Mullis, gay men and women go to heaven too. Forall its right-wing, Christian moralistic bombardments, The Messenger has every right to say its peace, just as I have the right to voice my opinions. However, please realize the hypocritical nature of their message, because it seems to me that their intent is to indoctrinate people while they preach against liberal indoctrination. Is the pot calling the kettle black? The Christian community has always boasted its unending acceptance of others, but this publication is definitely paying no mind to that doctrine. Acceptance is the key. The Christian rightand the far out left need not necessarily agree with one another, because that would make the world homogenous and boring. But publications like The Messenger are making the thought of acceptance a hard cross to bear.

"College: two hundred people reading the same book. An obvious mistake. Two hundred people can read two hundred books." - John Cage Who's to blame for low voter turnout ? Only nine percent of Appalachian's students voted in last week's Student Government Asso­ ciation senate elections. Everyone was looking for someone to blame. (A) Students blamed candidates for not campaigning, (B) candidates blamed SGA cabinet members for not publiciz­ ing the election and (Q SGA cabinet members put the blame on student apathy. So who really deserves the blame for the low turnout? The answer is (D) all of the above. Students are right to say that candidates did not campaign for the open senate seats. Few resi­ dence halls had any kind of campaign posters, and candidates did not make an effort to win support. To win an on-campus senate seal, a student has to receive just 25 votes from adorm's residents. Twenty-five people make up a small percentage of residents in a hall and a small percentage of a Senator's constituency; there­ fore, meeting the requirements forwinning an oncampus senate seat should not be difficult. Anyone who wants to represent an entire hall should be able toget at least 25 of their hallmates to take five minutes and vote. Candidates are also right to say that SGA cabi­ net members did not adequately publicize the election. Sure, senatorelections were announced in The Appalachian and brochures were given out. But it's not enough to simply announce that there is a senate election; SGA needs to explain why there is an election and what students should expect from an SGA senator. Many students do not understand what SGA docs or why SGA exists. SGA should make a point to define their organization and its role in the university. Student voter turnout will not Increase as a result of more publicity alone. Students need toknow mote than the date of an election; they need a reason to vote. Now, perhaps, we can understand why SGA claims that student apathy was to blame for the low voter turnout. Students are often too lazy to be concerned about their voice in campus con­ cerns. But students might change their attitudes if they were more familiar with SGA's purpose. Students, candidates and cabinet members: you're all right — you're all to blame. Our readers write...

I wish to inform you that I am quite interested in attending this Institute. However, due to the misguided,self-serving, myopic and disgust­ ing campaign against the Seby Jones Student Activity Center led, encouraged and inflamed by at least some members of the Biology Department faculty, a few other faculty members and an ill-informed group of student sycophants, I will not attend any such programs or otherwise support the Biology Departmentand other involved faculty members or student groups. I am making sure that the several thousand dollars I contribute each year to the University do not in any way support those members of the University and local community who brought discredit to themselves and great harm to the University by their demagogic oppo­ sition to the Seby Jones Student Activity Center, a facility that is badly needed by the University, North Carolina, and the surrounding region. Please be assured that there are far more than a few alumni and friends of the University whoagree with my position and who are taking similar actions. I wish to especially express in appreciation for those many faculty members, students, alumni and friendsof the University who, when considering matters of im­ portance, have the capacity and integrity to look far beyond that which is only consistent with self-interest and personal agendas.

As if that enough, Col. Bruce Hampton (ren't of course) handles the lead vocals and cs away on a chazoid, an instrument that s and sounds like a cross between a minelectric guitar and a mandolin. No e r sauce necessary, c h one of these musicians is a virtuoso, he t>and's musical product is one more ,ed from a witty, other-worldly sense of i vit.y than from its monster chops. So j ncling are its live shows that in 1991, ly revived Capricorn Records (a nearn clary Southern rock, blues and r&b label nally based in Georgia) would accept ing less than a live album as its debut on label, now based in Nashville. A live it album, is something truly unusual, i the core of this musical maelstrom sits >lump, wise, and astrologically inclined Bruce Hampton. After a show last year at Sollecito's, a friend of mine introduced himself to Hampton, and before he even had a chance to mention his name, the good Colonel began trying to guess his sign (he was correct on the second try). Known in the music biz for his deep spirituality and his introspective brand of music writing, Hampton's musical history goes back a way. Col. Bruce was called to music after being recruited to sing "Bony Moronie" in a friend's high school band in Atlanta. He shelved his aspiration of becoming a pro wrestling man­ ager, stating that he was "a Durwood KirbyLyndon Johnson-shy accountant type who was forced into music" against his "better judg­ ment." In 1966, Hampton put together The Hampton Grease Band as an outlet for his subversive song writing and distinctive vocal style. Music To Eat, the band's only album, was an important critical and cult hit, in spite of the fact that Columbia Records didn't seem to know how to classify or promote the band. Hampton's next exercise in musical misce­ genation was with The New Ice. Formed in 1973, the band toured extensively in the South and earned Hampton the reputation that car­ ried over to his next endeavor, The Late Bronze Age, which produced two lasting artifacts of its own during a seven-year run. Outside Looking Out and Isles Of Langerhan both drew raves from savvy critics, and confused frowns from purists with an overwhelming desire to box creativity into confining pigeon­ holes. The Late Bronze Age ended in 1987, and was followed by a solo album (Arkan­ sas). Hampton then formed the Aquarium Rescue Unit in 1991. The group was quickly accepted as the peak of Hampton's many musical achievements. The live debut disc was recorded in The Geor­ gia Theatre (in Athens), and featured Chuck Leavell, known for his work with The Stones and, more recently, with Eric Clapton on his last two tours. 1993's Mirrors of Embarassment is a studio attempt at captur­ ing the live sound—which (fortunately or not) is pretty much impossible to duplicate. Ultimately, The Aquarium Rescue unit is a group which must be experienced live to be truly appreciated, and I (for one) can't wait to jump in on Thursday. Don't miss this one.

Almost. , Real McCoy (PG-13), Kim Basinger I*varen McCoy, a freshly paroled bank Trying to go straight. Of course, that never happens in Hollywood. A rich crook, named Jack Schmidt (Terence Stamp), kid­ naps her estranged son and threatens to kill him if she does not rob a very prestigious and technologically advanced Atlanta bank. Karen reluctantly agrees to Schmidt's "offer", so she can get her son back and try and start her life over again. Schmidt and his gang of crooks are all professional thieves, so they accompany McCoy during the robbery to try and ensure that she does not foul the job up. A very dumb but well-meaning thief, named J.T. Barker (Val Kilmer), falls in love with and helps Karen fight Schmidt and his gang of crooks. Undercover Blues (PG-13) is about Jane (Kathleen Turner) and Jeff (Dennis Quaid) Blue, a recently retired CIA husband and wife team who get (in case you have not figured it out already) sucked back into the spy business. They have one extra team member to go along for the ride, their baby girl. The Blues are in New Orleans (What an Expert rock surrealists Col.

The Blues must also fight a local, idiotic hoodlum named Muerte (Stanley Tucci) who refers to himself as "Death". Constantly on their tail and in their way are two nosy and incompetent po­ lice detectives. All of the male characters in both movies are either goofy, slobs, idiots, sex-crazed maniacs, or some- combination of all four. They all stare and drool over Karen and Jane, making lewd comments and gestures. Oddly enough, the cameras spend most their timeon or below Turner's and Basinger's skirts. Are there mixed messages here? Both Undercover and McCoy center around strong, action hungry and smart women, a rare thing in Hollywood. It's a shame that both these movies fail to live up to their characters' expectations. Basinger has never been a very good ac- tress, so it's no surprise she fails here. Val Kilmer, who did an excellent job in The Doors as Jim Morrison, a role that should have snagged an Oscar nomination, also fails to spark any interest. Terence Stamp (Superman IT) must have been desperate for work to even consider appearing in McCoy. Turner, with her trademark husky voice, appears to be bored out of her mind through out the entire movie. Quaid's goofy, sarcas­ tic, dim-witted character (complete with cheesy voice) is funny the first five minutes of Blues, but further into the movie becomes extremely irritating. Every once in a while (emphasis on "while") there is a really funny scene in Undercover Blues - for instance, when Jeff uses a baby stroller as a weapon against Muerte. Unfortunately, The Real McCoy has nothing to offer - it fails to deliver on every level.

Drag out your demons, rat on the neighbors, and in an hour (40 minutes, minus commercials) all is well. Talk shows have also evolved into a cultural ritual of a sort. They have become an all-American bonding rite - if you wake up in the morning, wondering (even if only for just a second) if the entire world may have turned against you during some se­ cret hour of the night, all it takes is a touch of the remote to send wave upon wave of technicolor affirmation swirling outward to reassure you. The UFOlogists, Elvis junkies, obsessive burger gulpers, and as­ sorted heathens turning guilt into prosepoetry are enjoying their 15-plus minutes of fame. They have dropped their guard, they are becoming pensive end emotional over deconstructed analyses of Suspicious Minds. Life is grand. I'm OK, you're... they're... um... I'm OK. There is obviously a fine art to pushing people's buttons, and I do not understand it It is a science developed in the minds of network people, brooding over power lunches in secret parts of Los Angeles, over what makes people come unglued. I can't get the talk show thing - going on T.V. and laying it all out, taking off the bad wig and day-glo shades, and then going home (perhaps with some "parting gifts," like toasters and Turtle Wax and a couple of nights at The Drake Hotel, Manhattan). That is why I become fascinated by them. A possible theory behind the talk show boom is the education-awareness one. Is­ sues are discussed and debated; the entire spectacle is a hig-tech update on the "town meeting" concept. The audience considers the pros and cons, an ugly truth, a revealing insight, a gnawing doubt. Awareness is fueled. But talk shows have been going strong for decades now, and the"boom" has yet to peak. Rather than run out of social issues to exploit, the talk shows seem to be beating the bushes to discover some more - aliens, diseases "discovered" by bestselling pop psychology writers, psychic pets, etc. Ad nauseum. The legit topicsof concern - racism, sexism, homophobia, war, the environment - everybody is sick of 'em. Do a show on 'em, and you can't claim to be the first to bring this 'controversial and topical issue of great concern' to the minds of the masses. So now we're on to Barbie freaks and Elvis clones, pro slackers and second-generation members of the Simbionese Liberation Army Apprecia­ tion Society. The ephemeral and incidental is accorded a value that approaches comic proportions, and "hard" (unpleasant) is­ sues are passed over. A flood of nonissues trivializes the real ones. I am looking for reassurance as I channelsurf - waking up on the fabled wrong side of the bed. I gotta hunt down the one true network offering of weirder-than-weird, I gotta see for myself, what makes strange­ ness become strange, how these people operate, weeping gallons on cue for an audience of titillated suburbanites who em­ pathize but CANNOT and WILL NOT ever be able to grasp the true nature of the horror of being sucked into a UFO. Neon glows, scanners scan, aliens alienate. But I have seen their ship - I spill my guts, in horrible linoleum detail. Leaving this ridiculous reverie behind, 1 nurse the morning coffee. None of what I have seen is real, it is all images - the literal variety (the television itself),and also other kinds: the people I am supposed to empa­ thize with, or to feel sorry for, or get angry with. The audience that I am supposed to identify with. The host, who speaks for me, you, the audience, the panel. The malcon­ tent callers, proffering succinct damna tions. The images trapped inside of one big, invasive image - which assaults me, wakes me up, gets me ready for the day. The talk show represents, perhaps to us all, a kind of imported fortress of solitude (swiping Superman/UmbertoEco's Arctic hangout for my own meandering and pre­ tentious ends). See TALKING page 6 �I HE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY21 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 6 Hangin' out at the zombie birdhouse with Iggy Pop BY BF.RRY STIKELEATHER REPORTER Iggy Pop, the so-called godfather of punk, is back. It's been three years since his previous release - the com­ mercial and critical hit Brick by Brick. Fans and critics both won­ dered if Pop had reached a compla­ cent middle age, on the heels of the MTV breakthrough of Candy, his duet with Kate Pierson (of B52's fame). And almost as if he had been anticipating such thought, his belated follow-up, American Caesar comes out swinging inan attempt to set things right. Like all of his best albums, Caesar centers itself around themes of emo­ tional distress. But he also shows a new depth by utilizing a greater range of stylistic diversity, like country-in­ fluenced rhythms and the ever-tricky ballad (something first attempted on 1990's Brick). However some of theseexperiments do not work - of the two ballads, It's Our Love and Beside You,only Love manages to get off the ground. But Highway Song (another experiment) is an almost perfect road song, evok­ ing (in spirit) Johnny Cash, and5oogie Boy comes close to becoming a party anthem, in the style of sixties garage rock. The success of these tracks may surprise a few devout followers. But it's still the social commentary and personal trauma that make the new album great. Both Jealousy and Hate writhe and seethe through sixminute evolutions, offering up lines of pure malice like "...all 1 wanna feel is just them dead" and "When I look at blue blood I want to make it mud." Wild America, with guest Henry Rollins, and Mixiri the Colors both celebrate the cultural diversity of America, and both offer stem warn­ ings against the influence of the rich and powerful who "...judge a man by what he's got" and "...wanna have more and more." Social Life dramatizes the plight of all those run down by the life-in-thefast-lane syndrome that is - in his words - 'Torture dressed up as fun." Knowing that Pop is a survivor of such trauma himself lends a chilling conviction to a song already loaded with truisms. But the overall centerpiece of the al­ bum isdefinitelyF^w' Alone. With rap-influenced verses and a relent­ lessly bitter and confused tone. Alone grips the listener, and offers five min­ utes of complete fascination. Alone is truly Iggy Pop at his best. So. We've had the good, the great, and now...for thestrange. First comes a totally reworked version of Louie Louie, which resembles nothing so much as The Stooges (Metallic K. 0. also included a Louie rendition), Pop's ground-breaking late sixties-early sev­ enties group. While retaining the original's sense of fun, the song also features an incredible guitar sound and new lyrics which redefine the song as a remedy for the ills of the modem world. The new world order has never sounded so appealing. Finishing up Caesar on a high note is Caesar, which nearly defies descrption. Over a minimal backing, the song features Pop playing the role of Julius Caesar himself, laughing it up at the games, and every few min­ utes gleefully ordering the Christians to be thrown to the lions. There is no conceivable reason for this sevenminute track to exist, but be glad that it does. It might just be the oddest and most subversive track to appear on any album so far this year. American Caesar deserves its' place among the other classics in Iggy Pop's repertoire - The Idiot, Lust For Life, Zom bie Birdhouse and the three Stooges albums. As he enters his third decade of performing and recording there are no signs that he is running out of gas. To the contrary the self-proclaimed "chairman of the bored" seems to still be able to do what so many other aging musicians fail at: using age to an advantage, by building on past conquests with the wisdom that comes with years of ex­ perience. So not only should his peers and countless imitators take note they should also accord him the re­ spect that he is due. ARE YOU A FILM FREAK? A JUNKIE?

Once again, another person has entered the already overpopulated battlefield of the late-night talk show hosts' war. The latest field reports: even the late General Patton is probably turning in his grave over how effectively Letterman has wiped out the competition. Arsenio is still missing in action, Leno is still trying on his khakis (which no longer fit), and Chevy Chase's bodybag is on its way. The newest trooper's name is Conan O'Brien and his chances of survival are fairly good. After Letterman jumped ship to competitor CBS earlier this year, the executives at NBC were faced with a dilemma. They had to find a replace­ ment to fill their 12:30 a.m. time slot.

The tears and anger create the appearance of reality - it must be real? This can't all be a charade, an exploitation of something that went horribly wrong Dana Carvey and Garry S handling were offered the job, but both turned it down. NBC then shocked the world when they announced that Conan O'Brien, an unknown comic and former writer and a producer of such shows as Saturday Night Liveand The Simpsons, was to be the new host of Late Night. Late Night With Conan O'Brien debuted on Monday, Sept. 13 (Gee, I guess NBC is superstition-free) right after The Tonight Show. The show went smoothly: not nearly as smoothly as Late Show With David Letterman, but a helluva lot better than The Chevy Chase Show.Then again, my cat could pull off a bfctter show than Chevy.

After entering his dressing room, Conan panicked and tried to hang himself; but he was summoned to the stage before he could execute this plan of action. Conan handled the traditional talk show host monologue surprisingly well. He recalled his childhood dreams of running his own late night show, but his friends would mock him, by saying, "the day you have your own talk show is the day there's peace in the Middle-East". Conan's first guest was a very funny John Goodman. Conan and John talked about Roseanne and the up­ coming Flintstones live-action movie (It's obvious who John will portray). Conan talked John into leg-wrestling audience member George "Norm" Wendt. Unfortunately, Conan's sec­ ond guest, Drew Barrymore, failed to create any excitement and the quickie interview fell flat.

We want people to be able tocome to the museum to learn about this area and its uniqueness: the terrain, the people who migrated here, the economics of the area, and the university's history." Underwood feels that the museum would be a good visitor center for the university and has considered asking Appalachian to help with this idea. There is no confirmation of an actual plan to execute this idea, though. He also expressed his desire to re-establish the Appalachian Training School in which students can take a course in a specific trade tied to the museum, receiving credit for that course.

Through Cooperative Education program "Upstairs when my mom was downstairs!" —Shannon Marman, senior. BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR *'When I was in the eighth grade, I kissed a guy after church." —Ericka Walker, senior. The idea of graduating and finding a job can be terrifying for some students. As com­ petitive and scarce as jobs are today, any experience students may acquire will give them a definite edge in the job market. Appalachian's Cooperative Education pro­ gram helps students gain an advantage over other people looking for jobs. The program combines academics with working; students alternate going to school for a semester with working for a semester. Dr. Larry Kitchens, the director of the Cooperative Education program, said that positions are found for students in both large and small businesses. Most of the jobs are in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina although other states are included as well. "Watauga County has no big industry work," he said. "Students must work in jobs off the mountain." Students are placed in jobs related to their major. Many of the students involved in the program are computer science majors and end up with programming jobs, yet there are other positions for several other majors. According to Kitchens, almost all of the students involved with the program have positive reactions to it "They're more mature when they return from working," he said. "They come back better students since they understand why they're here." The companies also benefit from the Co­ operative Education program. Kitchens said that every student receivesan evaluation from his or her company. So far all of the evalua­ tions have been positive. Not only are companies getting competent students, they also may use the program as "Do you mean which body part?" —Pam Modo, senior. "When I was white water rafting." —Mike Lutes, senior. f ew sorority members elebrate acceptance what Kitchens calls a "low-cost recruiting tool." "The companies are not committed to employment," he said. One of the down sides to the program is that students are constantly having to relo­ cate, moving from Boone to their place of work every semester. It also takes longer for the students to graduate since they alternate semesters. The program was started in 1990 in the Mathematical Sciences department. It is rapidly expanding to other departments and even received a federal grant last year to help the program grow. The Cooperative Education program cur­ rently has 41 students but hopes to add 20-25 more. "I'd like to see faculty in other depart­ ments get involved with the program," Kitch­ ens said. "We want to get faculty to encour­ age students to participate and maybe even set them up with some jobs." The faculty members who coordinate the program keep in close contact with the stu­ dents while the students work. Kitchens said that someone from Appalachian visits the students at their jobs and also communicates with them through E-mail. Unlike an internship, the Cooperative Edu­ cation program has students working at alter­ nating amounts of time. It also pays very well, offering new, inexperienced sophomores $1700 a month. Positions for students in the program are very competitive. Students submit a resume and a transcript, both of which are sent to companies. Students must be willing tomove and have at least a 2.5 grade point average. While the Cooperative Education pro­ gram requires determination and hard work, Kitchens said that the student who partici­ pates comes back not only with experience, but with a "glow on their face."

TERRANT - ASSISTANT I could use a vacation BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR Let's go ahead and accept the facts from the beginning: we really haven't been in school very long yet. It was only barely a month ago that everyone wasmoving things into dorms and apartments, frantically get­ ting everything straight before classes started. So why does it feel as if we've been here forever? I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. I see people in my classes looking tired and wom-down, staring into space. The mornings are the worst; everyone walks around in a daze trying to make it toclass on time. Some don't even make it to class, choosing to catch a few hours of sleep or extra study time. Pay attention to how many time some­ one says "I'm tired"after you ask them how they are. The response is as common (if not more so) than the usual "I'm fine." In fact, try listening to how many times you tell other people that you're tired. You'd be surprised— it's unbelievable how much we complain about our lack of sleep. If you're still not convinced, stroll through the library oneday and lode into all of the study areas. Notice how many people have fallen asleep on the desk or in a chair, snoring and drooling. They remain com­ pletely unaware of everyone laughing at them until they wake up and can't figure out where they are. There is no doubt that college life is stressful. We worry about grades, money, finding time for extra-curricular activities, and our social lives. This isobviously what makes us feel worn out all of the time. Unfortunately, we're in for a shock since we'll be worrying about things for the rest of our lives. From this point on (or at least until we retire), we're going to be faced with over­ whelming obligations and impossible dead­ lines. When it's time for me to get a job, I have a feeling I'll wish I was still in college. Having a full-time job means enjoying less vacation time and having much more of a routine life. If we think we're tired now, just wait until we have to get up at the crack of dawn every morning to make it to work on time. I suppose the real reason nobody has any energy is the simple fact that there's too much to do, with no time to do it. I cringe every time I look at my calendar and see all of the things I have on my "things to do today" list. Every time I get something done I scratch it off, but lately it seems as if fewer and fewer scratch marks are appear­ ing on my paper. There's nothing worse than to be sitting on my bed, books and papers spread around me, watching my roommates get ready to go out I hear the hair spray pumping short squirts onto perfected hair and the typical going out" conversation: "does this look okay?" or "I'm having such a bad hair day." I find myself staring longingly out of my dot* while my pen itches to write more words. I've come to terms with the fact that obligations don't go away. In order to get things done on time, we have to make sacrifices. To keep from being exhausted all of the time, it's important to organize what needs to be done and how long you can put off doing it Making lists of priority items and keeping an organized calendar are the only things that have gotten me through three years of college. As far as I'm concerned, I'm due a vacation pretty soon. The more exhausted I feel, the more I daydream about dozing lazily on the beach with the nearest Appa­ lachian classroom six hours away. At least most of us are in the same situation. We need some time to catch up and rejuvenate ourselves so we can deal with the rest of the semester. Papers, tests, and projects are being piled on faster and faster than we can think. Of course, there are always people who thrive on stress and have the energy to accomplish everything in one day. These are the people who make us look bad. Let's not discuss them. While we drown in books and papers, it's important to keep in mind that with some organization, it's not impossible to get everything done and get it done well. Hang in there—Fall Break is coming to our rescue. �THK APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY21 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 8 Towing solves parking problems BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR Peak towing hours are during the afternoon, although some services tow 24 hours a day.

Besides the stadium parking lot, cars are also towed from other dorm lots quite often. When a car is being put onto a truck to be towed, it's not unusual for the owner of the car to come running out to try to "rescue" the car. One service said that it depends on the judgment of security as to whether the car is still towed. Another service lets the student pay $20 on the spot to not have the car towed. Keep in mind that if your car is in the process of being towed, pleading rarely works. "I don't like the idea of towing cars, but I'm entitled to have to do it," said Hampton. Another towing service employee agrees that the task of towing care isn't very pleasant. "It's a job," he said. "My wife's car got towed from another service the other day, so now I know how it feels." To The Best SALES Reps.

With all this at the forefront, not to Uion the 15-year rivalry, there was a foot- it Wake Forest used good field posi­ tion to score its second touchdown of the game. The following series, Wake Forest's defense intercepted another Yaudes pass setting up a field goal to set the score at 17-3. The story of the first half was turn­ overs. Appalachian's defense was playing extremely well considering the field posi­ tion Wake Forest had the entire half. ASU's defense was sparked by the play of Freshman linebacker Dexter Coakley who was in on five consecutive tackles at one point in the first quarter. Senior Brent David also showed why he has been picked pre season AU-American. ASU only picked up 15 yards on the ground in the first half, butdid have 106 yards passing. Wake Forest took advantage of ev­ ery turnover and penalty in the first half by the game. The first quarter started with jalachian's Matt Stevens intercepting Jim np's first pass. Stevens returned the ball ^ards to set up great field position for the untaineers. Two plays later Chip Hooks .it wide right and fumbled the ball, turning I l^ver to the Deacons.

The second half was similar to the first ASU's offense was ineffective on the ground. Wake Forest's leading rusher John Leach had 111 yards in the game compared to the Mountaineer's 80 total rushing yards. Yaudes was more accurate in the second half, finishing the game completing 14 of 24 of his passing attempts for 177 yards. Don Blue came in, replacing the injured Craig Styron, and had a career night catching five passes for 75 yards. The Appalachian defense held the Deacon's to a lone field goal in the second half. Coakley and David had outstanding games, each having 13 tackles to lead the Mountaineers. Appalachian's offense threatened to score in the fourth quarter reaching the Wake Forest two yard line. Two penalties, both illegal procedure and one calling back a Hooks touchdown, forced a third and goal from the ten. Yaudes' pass was deflected and intercepted in the endzone ending a would be 80-yard scoring drive. ASU's passing game was impres­ sive at limes, but the inexperience of the offense was evident in the penalties and turnovers. Appalachian has been known for its defense in the past and Saturday night was a step in the right direction to restore that reputation. The punting game wasalso a bright spot.

Appalachian isstill looking for that first win this season and will travel toCharles­ ton, South Carolina Saturday in that quest. Wake Forest is enjoying their non-confer­ ence win before hitting the likes of Florida State and UNC. Aen and women runners have strong showing BY MARK MURNANE REPORTER he Appalachian Men's and Women's ss Country teams had two successful out- 1 tin a weekend meet against heavy compem. )n Saturday, the men's team placed second ie N.C. State Wolfpack Invitational, while women finished sixth at the Clemson itational Cross Country Meet. Vith his two top runners unable tocompete f to injuries, men's coach A1 Fereshetian t "quite pleased" with his team's perfor- nce. n the five-mile course, junior Alan Wicker ished 6th overall with a time of 26:54.1. cker, who is making the transition from :k to cross country for the first time, is ming out a lot better than expected" said hetian. Finishing first for Appalachian is meet, Wicker jumped up five places on team as he finished sixth for the Mounlainon Sept. 4 during the team's first meet, nishing second for Appalachian, and sevJi overall, was junior John Chumbliss with ime of 27:00.2. Senior Billy Pemberton, om Fereshetian says is "getting better each ek," finished third for the Apps, and 1 llh overall with a time of 27:30.2. A' gutsy performance by junior Chris Huffstickler resulted in a 13th place finish with a timeof 27:43.3. Huffsticklerstarted the race quickly, running with the leaders mid­ way through the course until he began to suffer from leg cramps. Rounding out the Mountaineers for thecompetition were freshman Scott Laliberte (28:42.8), 22nd overall; senior Dustin Allred (29.40.4), 29th overall; and freshman Ryan Hicks (29.41.4), 30th overall. The team has been training extremely hard this past week, running an average of ten miles per day, and Fereshetian feels that the team may have been a little fatigued. Tommy Hollins was unable to compete due to a knee injury, and Fereshetian expects him toredshirt this season. Brian Miesch, a junior from Charlotte, was suffering from a pulled rib cage muscle but is expected to return to action in time for the team's next meet at home on Oct. 2. Although N.C. State completely dominated the meet, placing first through fifth overall, Fereshetian is not discouraged. "N.C. State is the best team in the region," said Fereshetian. He also added that the Wolfpack is ranked in the nation's top ten. The coach expects the team to continue improving and feels that theSouthern Confer­ ence Championship is definitely within reach. Fereshetian also hopes to finish within the top ten in the region,and ideally gain a birth to the nationals by finishing in the top four. While the men were off and running in Raleigh, the women were competing down in Clemson on Saturday and though the end result, a sixth place finish, may not look good to the casual observer, coach John Weaver was pleased with his team's performance. "We were facing some of the best runners in the country," said Weaver. With Florida, North Carol ina, Clemson, Georgia Tech and Florida State all finishing ahead of Appalachian, the lady Mountaineers were up against some high competition. While those schools each have one or more athletes who can finish in the top ten at a meet of this quality, Appalachian showed great team balance. The first five finishers for Appalachian all finished before Florida State's number four finisher. Senior Nicole Disher finished first for Appalachian in the 5000 metercourse with a time of 19:20.51, making her 23rd overall. Juniors Dawn Wehrenberg (19:31.51), 27th overall; Jenny Sheets (19:37.57), 29th over- all; Leah Walker (19:57.59), 34th overall; Carrie Hogg (20:04.55), 37th overall; Mclanie Babb (20:30.87), 42nd overall; freshman Jessica Edwards (20:31.89), 43rd overall; senior Hope Hartline (20:43.44), 45th overall; and sophomoreSuzanne Black (20:47.00), 46th overall, round out the Ap­ palachian results. The Clemson course was much more dif­ ficult than Appalachian's and the team's results are encouraging. Weaver hopes to get the team in prime for its next meet on Saturday Oct. 2 at home. UNC-Asheville, Western Carolina (who finished seventh at Clemson), Carson-Newman, and Clemson will all participate. Weaver feels that competing in tourna­ ments like the one at Clemson are good for the team, as it challenges his runners to step up their own performances by facing the nation's best. The team hopes to give Clemson some hard competition when they come into town on Oct 2, by using a bal­ anced attack that will hopefully result in our top six runners placing ahead of their fifth place runner.

App kickers win opener After tough match, Appalachian wins SC opener BY PHIL MCCARN SPORTS EDITOR Ryan Anderson, Steve Stahlschmidt, and Sean Gamett scored goals on Sunday as the Appalachian State University soccer team ran past The Citadel, 3-0 in the Southern Conference opener. "We played a very exciting, attacking game of soccer," said Appalachian State Head Coach Art Rex. "In the first half, we played some great soccer, it was beautiful to watch." The Bulldogs of The Citadel were down on their luck coming in to Sunday's game, and Rex felt like it was a good time for his soccer team to jump on another team and build their own confidence. "I felt like we needed to take advantage of the opportunity to beat a team that has been struggling," said Rex. The Apps outshot the Bulldogs 22-3 and did not allow a single shot on goal in the first half. On Thursday, Sept. 16, the Mountain­ eers traveled to Winston-Salem for a battle with nationally-ranked Wake Forest of the Atlantic Coast Conference, only to come out on the losing end of a 2-1 score. Appalachian was forced to play with only ten men when Mike Moody was ejected from the game, and still played the Deacons close. "We showed a lot of spirit," said Rex. "Considering that we only had 10 players, we played exceptionally well." The Mountaineers will be at home to­ morrow against another ACC foe in the Clemson Tigers before traveling to Winthrop on Sept. 26.

The victory was the Catamounts' first against The Citadel since 1986. Western Carolina evens their record to 1-1,1-0 inside the conference. The Citadel drops to 0-3,0-2 in league play The Citadel has not had an 0-3 start since 1965.

Five plays later, Bulldog quarterback CJ. Haynes fumbled on his own 34. Catamount cornerback Donnell Brinson picked up the ball and scampered in easily for the touch­ down. The Citadel countered with an 80-yard TD drive, but Western scored again when quar­ terback Lonnie Galloway tossed a six-yard scoring passto tight-end Brendon Fitzpatrick. Phil Shirley added a 30-yard field goal togive the Catamounts a 24-10 lead at the half.

We had a burning desire to win this game," said Western coach Steve Hodgin. MARSHALL 13, GEOR­ GIA SOUTHERN 3 Marshall scored first on a field goal by David Merrick from 34 yardsout. They scored again with 7:00 to go in the first half on a 34yard pass from quarterback Todd Donnan to Will Brown.

He tossed a 31-yarder to split end Damon Bradley to put Furman in field goal range with a chance to win it However, Jim Richter's47 yard field goal attempt fell short with six seconds remaining. "Of course we're disappointed with our performance Saturday against Wofford. After getting down 14-0, we came back and had a couple of chances to win the game but didn't get it done..." said Furman coach Jimmy Satterfield.

Uend® I lusic INDUSTRY DAY HELD I APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY • BOONE *NC 28608 SGA elections draw 9 percent turnout Some candidates blame lack of publicity and student apathy BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER Approximately 9 percent of Appalachian's students turned out to vote in Tuesday's sen­ ate elections, leaving 48 of the 75 available seats undecided. Senate elections were held on Sept. 14, and only 27 of the 75 seats available were decided, with 1,065 votes cast on a campus of 11,636 students. A number of factors were attributed to the lack of voter turnout at the polls. Some candidates heavily criticized the lack of publicity for voting. Robert Mazzei, a candidate atNewland, found he had to inform residents of the election. "It would have been better if more signs were put up. A lot of people got confused with the city elections and thought they had to be registered to vote," said Mazzei. "It comes down to not enough people were informed or really cared." Brian Stanley, SGA chief of staff, empha­ sized that the event was regularly advertised in the student newspaper, and a number of clubs and organizations were reminded of the election and urged to participate. Over 1,000 senate nomination brochures were picked up or distributed in the weeks before theelection. "The number of senators elected from our on-campus constituencies was up 300 percent from last year's senate elections. This shows a definite improvement in student participa­ tion in campus issues." says Stanley. Last year only seven of 36 on-campus seats were decided during the voting process, com­ pared with 23 of 36 this year. However, last year's total senators elected, including off- campus, was 59 of 75 seats, compared to 27 of 75 this year- a 43 percent decrease. Some candidates complained that voter apathy was a major problem and that a lot of students still appear tocare little about student government events. Julia Cope, a freshman candidate for the office representing Coltrane, attempted to put up posters, yet was warned about possible vandalism. "I would have campaigned more but post­ ers that were put up were torn down. No one in the hall really seemed to care about the election," she said. Another candidate, freshman Jessica Conrad, had similar comments pertaining to her campaign at Bowie. "It seems like no matter what kind of pub­ licity we would do, no one cared," said Conrad. "Being a freshman no one really knew me and it was hard to gain people's interest. Some weren't even aware that posi­ tions were open." Candidates from residence halls with high voter turnout commended students for their participation. David Brown, junior, had high praise for the residents of East who have re­ elected him to a senate seat. "I'm very proud that East did that well. Our college campus is famous for apathy and I'm glad that East stood out among the rest," he said. Other contributing factors to the low turn­ out were the numerous Greek rush activities taking place on campus and voting on visita­ tion privileges in various residence halls. The average turnout per residence hall was 59.2 with three having over a hundred to vote. Doughton led the way with 123 votes cast with Lovill and East close behind with 109 each. The next closest was the off-campus vote with 75. Four of the 39 off-campus seats available were decided. Professor says donated land is 'useless' BY STACEY STILLS REPORTER A professor in Appalachian's Biology De­ partment is disappointed with a recent land donation to the University. "This isa pieceof land that is completely useless," said Dr. Matthew Rowe. Rowe said that it is not only "an overstate­ ment, but a misstatement" to say that this has been a great gift to the department. "If this is the only piece of land (the administration) is looking for, it's a farce," he said. Appalachian recently accepted landdonated by the Johnston family of North Wilkesboro for an environmental studies area to replace an existing studies area located behind the Broyhill Center on Bodenheimer Drive. The land has gotten mixed reviews from Biology Department faculty. 'The land, which is a long, thin section of forest with a state road running through the middle of it, has had clear-cutting done over a large portion," said Rowe. The environment is heavily disturbed and the stream is useless, because it is heavily sedimentated and is "dead," so there can be no study of aquatic life, explained the biologist. The site, located off of the Parkway, is nearly 25 minutes away from the campus and the drive there would use up half of the stu­ dents lab time, said Rowe, who specializes in ornothology (the study of birds). He said the land is of no use to most of the professors and students in the Biology Department. On the other hand, several faculty members said the new area is an improvement over the old studies area. Many feel that although the land is not ideal and does not serve every purpose, it is better than the old site, which has suffered greatly from repeated use and run-off from nearby parking lots. "This new piece of land is a lot better than what we had. Our basic fear is that now that the administration has given us something, they will quit looking for anything else," said Dr. Ed Greene, who specializes in biometrics (an area which applies statistics to biological research). The old environmental studies area, which covers over 120 acres, is to be developed BY KEI.I.IE WELBORN REPORTER *d can meet nationally acclaimed music ustry insiders tomorrow in the Rosen "cert Hall at 1 p.m. Ifyoujump the gateafter hours on Howard's Knob you could find yourself in jail and/or paying fines up to $500. The Watauga County Sheriffs Department regularly patrols Howard's Knob and will give citations and possibly arrest those tres­ passing after the park is closed. Watauga County Parks and Recreation director. Deb Wynne, said the park is open from dawn until dusk, when it is then closed for safety reasons. The danger of being in­ jured while walking on the rocks in the dark, as well as the vandalism that has occurred after hours, has made it necessary, Wynne said, for the Sheriffs Department to become involved. Watauga County Sheriff, Red Lyons, said there have been few arrests for trespassing. "We've put up gates and locks to try to make people aware, but unless people give us a real hard time we just give them a citation."

Among the possibilities for develop­ ment are a Student Activities Center, Greek housing, and additional parking lots. According to Greene and departmental chair Dr. Jeffrey Butts, there is nowhere else for the university to expand and in order for Appala­ chian to grow and develop that land has to be used. Rowe believes however, that an area en­ joyed by so many people should not be de­ stroyed for the purpose of building structures that all students must pay for, but only a few can use. "The university has been short-sighted, but with a new chancellor, maybe we'll have some new vision," said Rowe.

China and Latin America are among many other populations facing similar challenges. My own observations lead me to believe that one of the problems with illiteracy lies within its very definitions.

Canada that the requirements are changing in today's job market, and so are the methods of testing the skill levels of our current population to fill those job requirements. The good news is that corporations have heard the cry and have risen to champion the cause. According to an article in BusinessWeek, Adolph Coors, one of my favor­ ite people, spends nearly $80,000 annually to teach em­ ployees and their families to read and work toward a general equivalency diploma. GTE has, to date, spent over $400,000 on family literacy programs for the public. These programs are run by Literacy Volunteersof America in ten communities where GTE is based. Exxon and Motorola are among the many other corporations who have found creative ways to help solve this problem. In the global marketplace America will have to be better educated to retain her piece of the economic pie. We will also have to decrease pollution while at the same time increasing our manufacturing jobs at home rather than sending jobs and employment to other nations with lower wage rates. Life is filled with new and different challenges around every comer. Overcoming challenges makes na­ tions and individuals strong. While it's true that the illiteracy rate is staggering, we must also acknowledge that its measure is dynamic. Em­ ployers can no longer afford to hire the high school wnocan Dareiy wruenisname. t oaay,aue me graduate whocan barely write his name.Today, due to the advent of computers, robots, and other complex machinery, a growing number of employers simply do not have positions available to those who are untrained and unskilled. With each passing day, global competition is becoming more fierce. Corporations are seek­ ing those individuals who can help them keep up with that competition. We live in an age where tele­ vision provides the most sig­ nificant means of communica­ tion among the general public. Television, when properly used, can be very educational. How­ ever, it does not teach one to read well, at least not as well as a good novel. In the coming years, comput­ ers will contribute more to the decline of illiteracy than any other factor. Software is already available that will help illiterate adults read and write with greater proficiency. Young stu­ dents find that computers hold their interest longer than class room settings, which help their retention and comprehen­ sion rates. So while the numbers are probably accurate and there is agreaternecessity for education and training, there is hope on the horizon. The gloom and doom seers preach that the sky is falling, and it may be true depending upon your perspective. The lack of education and jobs that pay a decent wage leads to crime in the streets. But we can solve these kinds of social issues, and I'm certain that one day we will. Corporations and volunteer organizations have already joined the fight. So when you hear the bad news,remember "it usually ain't as bad as you think." I remember the bad-old-days. Why, I remember when there was no MTV or Saturday Night Live. A Coca-cola was a nickle.

I was in a courtroom once and I saw three people who had been caught drinking and driving. It was each person's first offense, and the judge reduced the charges for all three to reckless driving. People areaware of this lenience and they use it to their advantage.

Is drinking and drivinga form of attempted murder? I believe that it is. My suggestion to solving this serious social ailment is simple. When people are caught drinking and driving, they should receive jail sentences of approximately three months, and their licenses should be revoked for one year. Also, they would not be permitted any type of special work permit allowing them to drive to work and back when they get out. Perhaps some people feel that my idea is too harsh. In reference to this plan, I am asked questions about the individual's family and how they might make ends meet if he or she cannot drive and thus secure steady employment I respond to these types of questions in this way: to which family are you referring, his own or theone he destroyed through the crime itself? Finally, sentencing should be taken out of the court and put in the hands of legislature. They should decide what the correct penalty for a certain crime should be. The court then would only have to decide whether or not an individual isguilty. If they are found guilty, then the court just sentences the person to the penalty that applies. If our judicial system would just straighten up and begin dealing with criminals as if they were criminals, then maybe people would not break laws in the first place. People need to realize that if they break the law, they will be forced to pay a serious debt to society. "You do the crime, you pay the time." Until we take a stand against needless crime, criminals will stay in the business of breaking laws and imposing their destructive selfishness on the rest of society.

The second, that they have means of moral and intellec­ tual education." —Fors Clavigera There has been some confusion recently concerning the association between The Appalachain and another newspaper pres­ ently being disributed on campus, The Mes­ senger. Because of this confusion, largely created by distribution processes (copies of The Messenger being left in some Appalachain boxes), and the fact that The Messenger introduces itself as a "campus" newspaper, we as a staff felt the need to clarify the matter. The Appalachain does not endorse or publish The Messenger, nor are we con­ nected to it in any way. We do not approve of the publication being placed in our deliv­ ery boxes. We at The Appalachain hope that our addressing this matter will clear up most, or all of the confusion created by the appear­ ance of The Messenger. Our readers write... To the Editor, I would like to compare statements from the Aug. 26 issue of The Appalachian. The first statement is in the Commentary section and is titled "Students Must Be Heard." This statement reads, "While at Appalachian, we should take an active role in the politics of this community." This statement was made under the premise that"Boone officials and residents...ensure that students are effectively banned from participation in the local decision making process." The second statement occurs in the Diversions sec­ tion, titled 'The Desire For Stability." This statement reads, "I think of these people who already have jobs and homes. They don't have to worry about writing papers and studying for exams. What could be more satisfying than haying a steady paycheck and spending evenings by the fireplace?" This was soon followed by "I can take road trips anytime the urge hits me and the only things I am responsible for are my fish." After reading the second statement, who could find faultwith the statement to which Boone officials alluded in the first? Writing papers and studying are minor worries compared to the major headaches of mortgages, car payments, taxes,and children. How can a temporary resident understand the consequences of zoning deci­ sions, bond referendums, budget guidelines, and strate­ gic planning? All of these decisions are made at the local level. Voting in elections is important and everyone who can should do so, but actually getting involved in "nuts and bolts" decision making requires maturity and thoughtful deliberation. I categorize myself asa temporary resident for at least the next two years. I can also imagine how I would feel, if I were a permanent resident of this commu­ nity, to have 10,000 students overriding my vote. If you want to vote, do it, but keep in mind that you are here for a short time and that the town, with all of its permanent residents, will be here long after you aregone. The town ran fine without major student input and will continue to do so. Gary Crumpler To the Editor, Box 13579 I am writing this in reference to the Sept 9 Convoca­ tion. The speaker this year was Dr. Johnetta Cole, someone wc were truly honored to have as a part of our program. I was delighted to see the response of the audience who greeted Dr.Cole warmly,enthusiastically and appreciatively. However, I wasdisappointed and disgusted to observe the behavior of one young man, a member of the Appa­ lachian Brass Choir. This individual exhibited some of the rudest, most thoughtless, and ignorant behavior I have ever witnessed. During Dr. Cole's address, this young man pulled out a USA Today and began to read! He continued to read, turn pages, and even share some of the articles with the person seated beside him throughout the speech. The Appalachian Brass Choir was seated right in front of the podium where Dr. Cole spoke. I realize that this person probably would not have chosen to attend the program if he were not a member of the Brass Choir. However, hedid choose to represent Appa­ lachian when he made the decision to join the Brass Choir.

YoMamajst '93 will feature music from Hat Earth, adcap Laughs, Anxiety, Junkflower, The ^gmies and Marblehead. The show will be :ld at Horn in the West, and doors will open noon. The name of the show, "YoMama-Fest," is I spoof on the old YoFest concerts held in I irious locations around Boone during years 1 isi, generally featuring popular arena-rock lindsof the day. iThe Hat Earth, a progressive rock band jm Lenoir (featuring Chris Church, also of Fink flower, on bass) will start the show off iund noon. Second on the bill is Boone's ideap Laughs, a classic-rock oriented band forming a mix of originals and selected iver tunes. Anxiety, a locally-based metal band is third on the bill. Fourth will be Junkflower, featuring Chris Church (guitar, vocals), John Hawkins (drums), Jimi Robison (guitar), Joey Dickson (vocals) and Scott Everhardt (bass). John Hawkins describes Junkfiower's sound as "guitar-driven" rock. The Pygmies, based in Boone and Asheville, will perform fifth. The Pygmies are Wade Rittenberry (bass),Jon Leeds (drums), Robert Martin (guitar) and Kenan James (vocals). Drummer Jon Leeds describes The Pygmies as 'crazy rock-n-roll," and emphasizesa band goal of "doing our own thing." Marblehead, also based in Boone, will fin­ ish YoMama-Fest. Marblehead are Andy Quinn (guitar, vocals), Dan Howell (bass, vocals), Nick Harvey (drums), Brian Walls (tenor sax), Charles Waters (alto sax) and Matt Rowles (trombone). Bassist Dan Howell described the band's sound as "kook music," a sound incorporating various elements of rock, funk and jazz. r— i ————_— 'NYPD Blues' and other stuff BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR Marble Head: (left to right) Andy Quinn (guitar+vocals), Dan Howell (bas guitar + vocals), Nick Harvey (drums), Brian Walls (tenor sax), Charle Waters (alto sax), Matt Rowles (trombone). i « t unkflower: (left to Right) Chris Church, John Hawkins, Jimi Robison, Joey v!-.— Scott Everhardt. ... t)ickson, The pygm«es: (left to right) Wade Rittenberry, Jon Leeds, Rob Martin, Kena James >eneath the rhythm and sound of The Ocean Blue BY AARON PRICE REPORTER pi I'm not sure just why I expected a totally ,i|ew sound from The Ocean Blue on its latest ire release, Beneath the Rhythm and und. Maybe it was because the stylistic mtent of its first two albums was so unwaering that I figured they would need to blaze me new musical trails to maintain its posiion on the cutting edge of "alternative" pop ven a sober guy can't walk a straight line rever). Nonetheless, the Blue have fol•wed the old "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" ige and released a new batch of music it's, er, a lot like the old stuff. Not that the new album is bad,or even dull, p to their old tricks, the Pennsylvania guitar p quartet's new album is filled with the sual catchy melodies and disco-rooted 'ves that make each listening a playfully relaxing experience. The album's opening aj||Cut sets the tone as lyricist David Schelzel u fekes potshots at American materialism: "This, ancient of nations/holds the message for ithout hesitation rings out loudandclear/ rze your piece of mind." The album's catchiest moments occur in immediately infectious Sublime. This id track features Schelzel's trademark iwing lead guitar tracks (always without ;tortion) backed with crisp acoustic strum•ng, as well as a cool vocal hook reminiscent f the theme songs from Sha Na Na and The Vrady Bunch. Sublime is a track which effec­ tively evokes the mood of its title, as does the fragile Ice Skating at Night. Predominantly an instrumental, Ice Skating is a great ex­ ample of the Blue's intuitive ability to create vivid musical imagery. Picture big, fluffy snowflakes falling onto a frozen moonlitpond, with a solitary skater slowly creating one figure eight after another...ahhh. The guitar plays a very light, circular figure, while keyboardist Steve Lau creates the perfect un­ derlying textures. A definite highlight here. It's difficult to say what it is that makes The Ocean Blue musically unique. Theraw flavor of a lot of Rhythm's music seems evolved through filters of fifties pop, jazz, and even disco. Yet the ways in which the Blue instrumentally evoke their influences leaves the finished product sounding like more than just a post-modern sum of its parts. Though the sound is mainly guitar pop, it's not the decid­ edly "jangly" variety that is so predom inant in current pop. Bassist Bobby Mittan and drum­ mer Rob Minnig have a unique chemistry that adds a touch of very tightly packaged jazz sound with the occasional rhythmic oddity that puts them a cut above other groups. Keyboardist Lau has a gift for ideal piano and keyboard lines vaguely reminiscent of some of The Smiths' later material. Throughout, the group is incredibly tight, but lacks much improvisational prowess. The main changes the Blue have made for this record lie, as the title suggests, beneath the rhythms and sounds. The production has undergone a substantial revamping from 1991's Cerulean; the sound is now a lot more clear and focused. Instrumentally, there are continuation of Don't Believe. However quite a few subtle changes. Bliss is Unaware, Crash also recalls the fifties, with its doofor example, is greatly enhanced by the addi­ wop-infiuenced sound. You could almost do tion of some auxiliary percussion.

Tickets are $7 in ad­ vance ($9at the door), and doors will open at 9 p.m.. QueenSarah Saturday,a no-frills pop combo from Durham, will open the show. The band, friends since riementary school, officially formed three years ago. Thus far the group has a CD, two singles and an Ep to itscredit.

A killer cover of The Feelies' Too Far Gone won them some additional points in my favor. The Connells have long been one of the stron­ gest live draws in the area, and they have per­ formed in Boone on a number of other occasions. The band's style pulls from an eclectic range of influences: British-invasion pop, Southern 'Alternative' sounds of the post-Athens, Ga.-variety, and early-80s British mood-pop. Its current lineup includes Mike Connell (guitar, vocals), David Connell(bass), George Huntley (guitar, vocals), Doug MacMillan (vocals, guitar), Peele Wimberley (drums, percussion) and Steve Potak (piano, organ, keyboards). The Connells* history extends back nearly a decade, and their fifth album, Ring, produced by Lou Giordano (of Popular North Carolina band Queen Sarah Saturday (top) and The King Missile fame) will be available on Sept 23. Connells (bottom) are set to rock Legend's tonight. Fear and loathing and dread. Dope and guns and sex in the streets. A ne w tv season is beginning; let the culture wars begin. BUY A MICROWAVE OVEN A new television show,to be called NYPD Blue will soon float through the strato­ sphere (or somewhere) to coalesce in se­ lected suburban boob-tubes, and a lot of people are mad. I don't really care; I'm generally too busy tosit and zoneout before our nation's great electronic baby-sitter, so the prime-time onslaught of exposed flesh and profanity (after Porky's, the seventhgrade flick of choice, it was straight down­ hill from there - into the pit of amoral cynicism and snide disinterest) barely mer­ its a weak, whimpered "S***-Where's the TV guide at?" As soon as everyone inter­ ested enough to break a sweat realizes the certainty of cancellation when the notori­ ous Nielsen's Season Premiere Swan-Dive throws the poor show into some savage and twisted crash-and-burn, they'll change the channel. Or turn the TV setoff. Who cares? WORK HARDER. By now all of my biases must be plainly obvious. It's television - let's not make this thing more important than it is (it's not). Nevertheless, the outrage over NYPD Blue stands as the latest milestone in a Vend. Remember the Married, With Children boycott? Guess what's still going on? Not the boycott Or what about the National Endowment For The Arts? To listen to some people, you'd think this government body was single-handedly responsible for hell, death, earthquakes in California, Mt. St. Helens' 1980 explosion, bubonic plague, teenage suicide, crack, Danielle Steele novels, Iron John, pollution, insomnia and everything else that has gone wrong with the world since the first amoeba to crawl out of the primordial ooze had a really bad day and gunned down a primordial post office filled with primordial people. One of our duly elected (well, not by me) senators took it upon himself to get indignant over Andres Serrano, Robert Mapplethorpe, Tim Miller and various other individuals, people I had never heard of until that point. I should perhaps thank him for turning me on to some pretty cool stuff. But I really don't think it's worth it. Now they're (the NEA, that is) attempting to make artists sign big statements filled with small print under penalty of something frighteningly obscure (let the jibberjabber begin). Meanwhile the senator is now perfectinga repertoire of offkey versions of Confederate folk songs. YOUR DOG HAS BAD BREATH.

Approximately 800 record albums are also available. The albums, containing Country, Blue Grass, and traditional regional music, have been recorded onto cassette tapes for public use to preserve the quality of the al­ bums. Instructional tapes forplaying musical Services such as the ABC Express and Interlibrary Loan are available for students who need additional information. Both ser­ vices are operated through the university. More information about these services may be obtained from Appalachian's Belk Library or the Appalachian Collection. The collection has the same on-line system as Belk Library, allowing information in the collection to be obtained from campus. A shuttle service, running once a day, is avail­ able to carry books from the collection to Belk Library at a student's request With a valid student ID, materials from the collec­ tion may be checked out Williams believes the Appalachian Collection's "wide variety of materials avail­ able on the region" is its best quality. Not only is the collection a useful way to get information, it is also an ideal place to study and read with its quiet atmosphere. Unlike Belk Library, the Appalachian Col­ lection is normally not very crowded. "Our usage is down this year, probably because of our location. It would be nice if more people knew about it" Appalachian Studies classes usually prompt students to use the collection. Williams said that a class on the Appalachian region is offered at Wake Forest, so students drive up to use the Appalachian Collection for their research. The collection, under the Center for Appa­ lachian Studies, encourages the use of its materials to students, local residents, and visitors to the area. Free visitor parking and facilities for the handicapped are available. For more information about the Appala­ chian Collection or its services, contact Dean Williams, librarian, at 262-4041.

She also said that "many can't fit their equipment in the gym, so ird to get the bigger bands." >ther different council is Concerts. This brings in national acts which include Widespread Panic. Last year's James Taylor concert was also coordinated by the Concerts council. The Club Shows council is in charge of many of the productions that take place in the Student Union Pub. These bands tend to be local, such as Marblehead. Comedians take the stage in the Pub as well. The fourth council that makes up APPS is Special Events. This group coordinates some of the more unusual features, such as the hypnotist who comes at the beginning of the year. Another Special Events program is the artist who paints during halftime at football games, Denny Dent. Anyone who has seen a film on campus has seen theeffortsof theFilms Council. They are responsible for the Rocky HorrorPicture Show every year as well as other movies shown in the Pub and IG Greer theatre.

Although APPS recently finished its mem­ bership drive, anyone interested in becoming a part of the organization has another chance to join in January. Conklin said that APPS looks for dedi­ cated and creative people. "Everyone has something to give," she said. Karen McHarque, Billy Partin, Alison Crookham, and Chris Utley (all sophmores) eat burgers at Burger King.(photo by Scott Register) BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR The vegetarians in Boone might soon have a fast-food restaurant to go to for a quick bite to eat when every other establishment only has hamburgers to offer. Burger King has launched a new "veggie burger" in Watkins Glen, New York. With enough support from its customers, the sand­ wich may be extended to other restaurants. The manager of Boone's Burger King com­ mented that she had heard of the burger and said, "We've always made the veggie whop­ per. It may not be on the menu, but we could make it." However, the operator at Burger King's main headquarters said that there is a distinct difference between the veggie whopper and the new veggie burger. She described the veggie whopper as having no meat, yet said that the veggie burger is made completely of beans and spices. The new burger is only available in four cities in New York. So far, response seems to be positive as customers try the latest menu addition. If you are interested in supporting this new alternative to meat, you are encouraged to call the Burger King headquarters at 1800-YES-1800. by Rich Dahm and Dan V'cbber Spin Again, or Lose a Turn DIRECTIONS: Following are the descriptions of 20 games.

TERRANT - ASSISTANT Autumn approaches BY KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR Every morning when I go to my closet to pick out the day's outfit, I stare sadly at my summerclotheshanging there. It won't be long until they're packed away, only to be replaced by sweaters and coats. It's always this time of year that I start mourning summer. I miss driving at night with the windows down and spending af­ ternoons reading by the pool. When I hear a song that reminds me of summer, I turn it up just a little louder than usual. Living in Boone makes saying good-bye to summer more difficult than usual. I always know that when it starts to get cold here, summer won't be back for awhile. Although the approach of fall always makes me a little sad, these first few weeks of school help ease the transition. Letting go of summer break has always been ex­ tremely difficultfor me. Starting classes is a sign that our summer fun is over, yet we still have a few more days to enjoy the sun. I hate to admit it, but this past weekend actually had me excited that fall wason the way. There was a definite chill in the air, and nights were undoubtedlycold. I had to fish out my long sleeves for the first time this season. For those of you who are new to Boone, it's about time to start bringing jackets from home. One of the things that I love about Boone is that it's unforgettable in the fall. After I graduate, this will be the time of year that I'll always come back to visit. There is a reason why Boone is packed with tourists during the fall: the sight of colorful leaves covering the mountainsides makes you want to pitch a tent and live outside forever. Even the short walk from class to class will make you appreciate Boone like you never have before. This is the perfect time to explore the Parkway and other places in the wilder­ ness. There is nothing that will soothe your nerves more completely than walking alongside a stream, shuffling leaves with your feet and breathing air that stings your throat Even driving around Boone takes on new meaning. Choose a wanner day so you can have the windows down and drive through some of the back roads of Boone. Howard's Knob is an ideal place to drive since you get a full view of nature'scolors. Football games are another sure sign of autumn. This past weekend's game turned out to be on a warm day, but there will be many afternoons where every Appalachian fan has on gloves and is sharing a blanket with a neighbor. During half-time, every­ one gets up to buy a cup of hot chocolate. It always seems as if the person beside me buys one at every game I attend. Ispendthe entire last half smelling the aromas floating out from the steaming white cup. By the end of the game, I can't wait to run home and make some of my own. I can never sit still long enough to watch a whole football game on TV, but I like the excitement of football season. If I'm not paying attention, I'm always jolted awake when someone screams "FUMBLE!" right beside me. Even when I'm not in the room, there's something soothing about hearing the muffled cheers and announcers from the television on a cold, cloudy Sunday afternoon. Along with the changing of the seasons come some of the best holidays of the year. I love seeing pumpkins displayed on the side of the road, freshly picked and ready to add a splash of orange to someone's front porch. I've already started flipping forward in my calendar to see how many weeks we have left until Halloween and Thanksgiv­ ing (don'task how many we have until the Thanksgiving holidays—it's too depress­ ing. You can look for yourself). Soon we will all be desperately searching for an obscure costume to wear to amaze our friends. Last year Iwas a cat, so maybe this year I'll come up with something a little more creative. Even though I dearly love the summer months, I'm learning not to pout when the temperature drops. I'll fondly put away my sandals and sunscreen, knowing they'll be waiting for me when spring comes. For those of you new to Boone, the winter won't really be that bad (snicker, snicker...). �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY 16 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 8 #% Seniors!

GANTT HEAD STAFF WRITER vo former Appalachian State baseball juts spent this past summer living every [boy's dream—playing professional baseirmer Appalachian catcher Randy ruhl was signed as an undrafted free t by the Cincinnati Reds and was asto its rookie league affiliate in Princeton nearby Appalachian League. Out:r/first baseman Johnny McCraw, also indrafted free agent, was signed by the ston Astros organization after an open ut camp and assigned to Asheville of the |th Atlantic League. Bruhl hit .272 with five home runs and Bis in 58 games for Princeton, while raw hit .283 with two home runs and 14 1 s in 26 games after joining the Tourists in I -season. [ oth players have impressed their organi| ons with their offensive abilities, leldon "Chief' Bender, Cincinnati's diir of player development, said theorganiin was impressed with DeBruhl's skills. 'We really like the strength of Randy's and the power he has shown us so far," Bender. "We also like his size and ngth behind the plate. We think he can be hitter and catcher for this organizaouston is no less enthusiastic about raw's future. •avid Rawnsley, the Astros' assistant dir of scouting, said the parent club was ed with McCraw's offensive abilities, e're excited thatJohnny was able to step in J nid-season for Asheville and put up the nd of numbers he did," said Rawnsley, "If >ii extend his power numbers (14 RBIs in 60 (r bats) over a full season, you will know why i are so excited about him." Both players expressed many of the same J lings about their inaugural pro seasons. 3 'It's exciting just to be doing for a living hat you have done for fun all your life," said IcCraw. JeBruhl also noted that he was excited to tve the chance to play baseball profession•y- I I'm extremely glad to have this opportu{y; so I'm going to go out and bust my tail in ijper to keep progressing," said DeBruhl. Both players said they were having equal better success at the plate than during their I legiate days, calling the usual transition I ficulties from college to professional baseI 1 nonexistent.. 'In college, you only face the best pitchers sw timeseach season, like Florida State and SPORTSBRIEFS Clemson, but up here, you see those kinds of pitchers every day and it helps you become a more consistent hitter," said DeBruhl. McCraw added, "One of the biggest adjust­ ments for me was going from aluminum bats to wood. But once you get your swing down, the ball will fly just as far off a wooden baL" Both players also recognized they were fighting an uphill battle since they were not drafted. DeBruhl felt he should have been drafted but has put the fact behind him. "What matters is what you do once you get here, not when you were drafted," said DeBruhl. "I feel like the Reds have treated me like one of the draft picks because they saw my ability and have done a lot of individual work with me." McCraw also felt the pressureof joining the team as a free agent. "I joined the team in the middle of the season and I got some funny looks," noted McCraw. "It was difficult trying to become part of the team while at the same time trying to steal someone's job." Both have returned toAppalachian to finish their educations. McCraw will graduate in December with a degree in Management and DeBruhl has an­ other year to go before receiving his Physical Education degree. Baseball fans in the area will probably have a chance to see both players in action next season. Bender says DeBruhl will probably fit into the club's S ingle-A plans next yearand will probably play in either Winston-Salem or Charleston, WV, which visits the Hickory Crawdads several times a year. Rawnsley said McCraw could start next season with Asheville or one of Houston's other Single-A teams in the Midwest League (Quad Cities) or the Florida State League (Osceola). Both have been working out with baseball coach Jim Morris and strength coach Mike Kent in order to be ready for spring training next year. "The coaches have been working us hard, so I know we'll be ready come next spring," said McCraw. DeBruhl summed up his feelings on his season. "It's great to be able to play, but I won't be happy unlessI'm able to improve and advance through the system," said DeBruhl. "Baseball is what I love and I'm going tostay in the game 'till they kick me out. They said in high school that I couldn't play in college and they said in college that I couldn't play in the pros, but I'm just working hard and pursuing my dream. " "Johnny and I knew we could play, we just had to get our feet in the door and now we have to make the most of it." SOUTHERN CONFERENCE NAMES PLAYERS OF THE WEEK Johnny McCraw The Appalachian State Men's Tennis Team ®eds no help becoming inspired. Stepping into their first tournament at East Innesee state this weekend, these men are fcused and ready to do damage on the courts. Head coach Mike Kernodle said, "This is P strongest team I've had since I've been •re. I'm very excited about the potential of lis team." With six returning players and two solid freshmen in the line-up, this team has every­ thing going for them. Senior Bill Plautz, who has just been named an Academic Ail-American, will not be play­ ing this weekend, but will return as one of the top seeded singles players and will play No. 2 doubles. This season, juniors Ben Gerace and J.C. Moeller will play crucial roles along with Manuel Zapata, Blake Pendleton, and Zack Sharpe. Justin Starnes, a 6-5 freshman from Char­ lotte, and Pedro Lopes from Brazil, are two gifted atheletes who will add great depth to The Southern Conference named Marshall sophomore tailback Chris Parker as the of­ fensive player of this week. He rushed for a career-high 160 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries. The Thundering Herd defeated Murray State in that game by a 20-3 score. Parker's two touchdown carries were for 32 and 20 yards. Both were in the fourth quarter. The 160-yard total for Parker set a Marshall Stadium record. The conference named se­ nior tackle Alex Mash of Georgia Southern as the defensive player of the week. He had seven tackles, three sacks, and one tackle for a loss. Georgia Southern won that game over The Citadel, 16-6. His sacks resulted in a total of 15 yards lost and his tackle for a loss cost the Bulldogs three yards. The Georgia Southern defense held The Citadel to just 101 yards total offense. The honor for the freshman of the week went to linebacker Nakia Thomas of East Tennessee State Uni­ versity. He had 12 tackles and an intercep­ tion to lead the Bucs to a 24-0 victory over Mars Hill. This is the second consecutive game in which Thomas intercepted a pass. This is also the second consecutive week that ETSU had a player named as rookie of the week. Running back Larry Bell won it for the Bucs last week. SOUTHERN CONFERENCE HAS FOUR TEAMS IN TOP 25 Four Southern Conference member schools made the top 25 poll in Division 1-AA this week. Marshall is ranked No. 1, following its victory over Murray State. Georgia Southern is ranked No. 7 after beating The Citadel. Western Carolina is ranked 12th. Furman is ranked 24th. Two other of Appalachian's opponents outside the Southern Conference are also ranked: Liberty, following their 2014 win over the Mountaineers, owns the 18th spot on the poll. North Carolina A&T is ranked 13th this week CLEVELAND WINS OVER WASHINGTON ON MONDAY NIGHT Randy DeBruhl Klountaineer men prepare to hit the court BY DAVID KITTRELL REPORTER MCCARN- EDITOR DAVID KITTROL - ASSISTANT the team. The team's practices have mostly been comprised of challenge matches so far, and Kernodle believes these matches have gener­ ated a stronger team spirit. "Almost all the challenge matches have gone 3 sets," said Kemodle. "The men are playing extremely well and I'm happy with their progress. "Along with the toughest team we've ever had, we have also received the toughest sched­ ule. We have matches against UNC-Chapel Hill and other equally strong teams." The team's fall matches are a prelude to the team's official Spring season. "I'm looking foward to the fall season, because I get to see everyone play on the team and further de­ cide who will play in what position on the team," said Kernodle. "I'm anticipating a very exciting fall and spring season. The team, as a whole, has been a pleasure to deal with, " Kernodle said, "as tennis players and academically." The Tennis team will play in five tourna­ ments this fall. From the level of confidence displayed by Coach Kernodle, it seems that this team will be no less than an undoubtable force in the Southern Conference. Apps take fifth place BY MARK MURNANE REPORTER Led by Jeff Waltzer, the Appalachian State men's golf team finished fifth at the Cardinal Collegiate Invitational Tuesday. Held at the Cardinal Country Club in Greensboro, the two-day tournament was the first for Appala­ chian this year. The team competes in five tournaments in the fall and the spring. Waltzer, a sophomore, shot a 221 over the 54 holesof the tournament to finish 11th in the individual competition. The team captured fifth and finished with a combined score of 837. Glenville State College from Glenville, West Virginia finished first. Virginia Com­ monwealth out of Richmond, and UNC Wilminatnn tipH fnr VrnnH Thrt hnct crhnnl holes the golfers in each two-man team alternated shots. The second 18 holes was the "best ball" format in which each golfer shot individually, yet only the lowest score of each hole went to the overall team score. The final 18 holes, played on Tuesday, was all individual competition, with the five low­ est i scores going toward the team score. "The team did better than we expected," said Nance. "[Senior Brian Marshburn] is our only golfer with much experience. Ev­ eryone else has only played in one or two tournaments." Joining Marshburn, who shot a 227,and Waltzer, were juniors Drew Tay­ lor (234), Ryan Puckett (230), Jason Young (227), and sophomore Jason Smith (225). Also competing in the Cardinal Invita­ tional were N.C. State, Highpoint College, Pfieffer College, Greensboro College, and The Cleveland Browns were the benefi­ ciaries of four turnovers in a victory over the San Francisco 49ers, 23-13. The Browns killed a fourth-quarter comeback effort by the 49ers with an interception and a fumble recovery. With the win, the Browns remain unbeaten. The 49ers drop to 1-1. Next Mon­ day night, the Denver Broncos travel to Kan­ sas City to take on the Joe Montana-led Kansas City Chiefs. SAN FRANCISCO FALLS FUR­ THER BEHIND THE ATLANTA BRAVES The Giants fell back to a game and a half behind the Atlanta Braves with a loss to the Chicago Cubs Monday Night The 6-5 loss was the sixth straight setback for the Giants. RYPIEN OUT THREE TO SIX WEEKS Mark Rypien, quarterback of the Wash ington Redskins, injured his knee in last Sunday's game against the Phoenix Cardi­ nals. He was tackled by the Cardinals' defen­ sive tackle Eric S wann in thesecond quarter. The injury was diagnosed as a torn medial collateral ligament in his right knee. Al­ though the injury will not require surgery, Rypien will miss up to six weeks. Redskins Coach Richie Petitbon plans to start Cary Conklin next week against Philadelphia. WINFIELD APPROACHES 3,000 HIT PLATEAU Dave Winfield of the Minnesota Twins needs just 3 hits to join the 3,000-hit list. He hit a home run in Monday night's game against Oakland. The dinger was Winfield's 21st of the year and 453rd in his career. Robin Yount of the Milwaukee Brewers was the last player to reach 3,000. i �IRA APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY EXPRESSIONS Precision Printing IN BOONE Phone: 262-1816 We Also Laminate!

"I have been persuaded by the amount of community involvement, and all the letters and phone calls, todeal with this thing," said Allen. "Basically, the bottom line is, Appa­ lachian State University, the community of Boone, and the community of Watauga county, are the only ones that can save this land." The Trust for Public Land (TPL) is a non­ profit land conservation organization that has expressed an interest in helping to turn part of Howard's Knob into a park. TPL acquires land for people by purchasing it and then selling the land back to the community, city, county, or state. By helping to bring community gardens and major additions to parks, as well as protecting free, open space, TPL has already saved over $750 million worth of landin theUnited States and Canada. Allen calls TPL's business a unique form of philanthropy. "We bring the resources of a national organization to play, to give the public the opportunity to raise funds," said Allen. Allen said TPL received its first phone call concerning Howard's Knob about a month and a half ago. "If you ever wondered if individual ef­ forts makea difference, they do," said Allen. Letters and phone calls from concerned citi­ zens of the Appalachian community began to pour into his office. He began a study to find out what was important about the Knob. Howard's Knob has long been a place where local people, as well as college stu­ dents go to climb, boulder, hike, bike, or simply to meditate. Most of the information Allen received came from various members of the newly formed group called Friends of Howard's Knob. In the weeks prior to Allen's visit to Boone, TPL spoke with Monte Green, a Florida na­ tive who owns approximately 100 acres on the north, east, and south sides of Howard's Knob. understand that trespassing will negatively effect group efforts. Several times through­ out the meeting, Allen said that neither he nor his organization would take sides in the mat­ ter. He went on to explain that Green is a developer; he is not going to donate the prop- Dale Allen tells Appalachian community how Howard's Knob can be converted into public land. (Photo by John Heisel) Green purchased the property as a real-estate investment. Allen said he believes that at the time Green bought the land, he was unaware of the significance of the property. Green's original plan was to build his per­ sonal home on the south slope of the moun­ tain, overlooking Boone, and sell lots on the north side for home sites. After meeting opposition from many local groups, he is now considering selling some of the land for pres­ ervation. Allen urged the group assembled to respect the fact that the land has been posted and to erty, but he is willing to sell parts of it. Allen said that those interested in preserving the land should be glad that Green is trying to be cooperative. Green told the Watauga Democrat that he hoped an arrangement could be made to pre­ serve some of his land as a public park for rock climbingand other things. Green said he would be willing to work with TPL if a price agreement can be reached. Allen said, "Once the property is purchased by the Trust for Public Land, there needs to be funds available to purchase the property from us. Ideally, the land should be purchased from us as soon as possible after we buy it from Green." Allen refused to speculate on the purchase price of the land, saying that the main goal now should be to determine how to meet the buyer(s) money with Green's price. Questions were raised of exactly whoshould, or could, purchase the land from TPL, once they have agreed to act as facilitator in the effort. Many local groups, students and mem­ bers of the community feel that, together, they could possibly raise the money. They also feel that public agencies (Appalachian State Uni­ versity) could step forward and support the effort. The possibility of Watauga county or the town of Boone acquiring the land has been raised, yet the intentions of community lead­ ers at this point are unclear. Allen said that the possibilities of the land becoming a county or a state park are still being pursued. There is a question that the size of the land is too small for a state park, but it could qualify for some­ thing else. Allen, who had not seen the land for himself until Sept. 8, said before the meeting that at the present time, no options have been ruled out. Green is scheduled to present his prelimi­ nary plan approval on Monday, Sept. 20 at 5:30 p.m. at the Watauga County Courthouse. Allen said that the actions taken by those interested in preserving the land must be ap­ propriate. "I am not going to be out in front of the courthouse protesting. I strongly recom­ mend you do not take that action. While various members of Friends of Howard's Knob have said they may plan a march to the courthouse, it will be scheduled as a positive effort. "Our next step," said Allen, "is to let people know why Howard's Knob is a community asset and thatthis is aserious public issue." He also said that those interested in preserving the land should show support now by joining Friends of Howard's Knob and by letting elected officials know exactly how you feel. Diversity is the 'right' and 'smart thing to do' BY KELLIE WELBORN REPORTER Anthropologist and administrator Johnnetta Cole addressed the topic, "The Struggle for Quality; Diversity in Higher Education," at Convocation Thurs., Sept. 9. Cole spoke to Appalachian students and faculty about the need for diversity on col­ lege campuses regarding race, gender, reli­ gion, ethnicity, sexual orientation and dis­ ability. She said she advocates diversity "not only because it's the right thing to do, but because it's the smart thing to do." "We cannot afford the social and eco­ nomic cost of an ill-prepared citizen. These are issues that affect the needs of our economy and our ability to compete effectively with other nations of the world," Cole said. "Ex­ cellence is only possible if there is diver­ sity." Cole said that, beginning in the first grade, students are taught a Eurocentric curricu­ lum. She spoke of the failure in academic subjects, such as history, literature, music and economics, to represent events in which minorities were the innovators. "Should we include in the curricula of our schools the realities of those who hold up half the sky (women), and those we call minorities or people of color? We must con­ tinue to embrace liberal arts traditions, but we must also dare tocritique it, not for what it has traditionally included, but for all the peoples and realities that have been systematically left out." Cole called to teachers to speak out against traditional hiring practices. "It is the respon­ sibility as a faculty to bring range of human experience and diversity that can only be brought by a multi-racial faculty," Cole said. "The majority of students are the so-called 'minorities.' Where are the professors of minority?" Cole said that she remains hopeful in our education. She concluded by encouraging everyone to take action. "This task is in your hands and in mine," she said. Cole received her master's and doctoral degrees from Northwestern University, and has also received twenty honorary degrees from institutions such as Brown, Columbia, Princeton and Yale. She was the first AfricanAmerican woman to beappointed presidentof the historically black women's school, Spelman College in Atlanta, Ga. An advocate for women and people of color, Cole was titled one of America's most outstanding Af­ rican Americans by both Essence and Black Enterprise magazines. Johnnetta Cole brings a message of diversity to Appalachian.

'There is no way to overestimate the im­ portance of this issue to all 16 institutions," said C.D. Spangler, president of the 16school UNC system. Of the $310 million for UNC schools, Appalachian would receive almost S24 mil­ lion, $15 million for a Math/Science complex and $8,794,900 for an Academic Support building. In a report to the BOG on Sept. 10, chairman of the UNC bond campaign Thomas Stores urged members of the board and the 16 UNC system chancellors to continue to push for the bond. While expressing optimism about the vote, Stores maintained that it was "not a slam dunk." 'There is no question in my mind that we can win this election if we have information in the hands of the voters and get the voters to the polls," Stores said According to Stores, the east and west regions of the state strongly support the bond, while the piedmont is "not as supportive." Spangler stressed the roles of the 16 insti­ tutions in passing the referendum. He said that the campaign organization was under the direct lead of the 16 chancellors. Appalachian Chancellor Dr. Francis Borkowski is taking Appalachian's role very seriously. "My whole focus is to get the bond referen­ dum passed," said Borkowski.. Borkowski is sending letters to all faculty, staff, and students of Appalachian to heighten awareness and will be contacting media outlets in surrounding counties to discuss the issue with editors and news direc­ tors. Appalachian has also setup a steering com­ mittee to work for the passage of the referen­ dum. Alumni, students, faculty, staff parents, governmental agencies, media and commu­ nity are represented on the committee, which has developed strategies for passing the bond, such as letter writing campaigns, lobbying community organizationsand leaders for sup­ port and a get out the vote campaign. ^he Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involement and Leadership.Our offices are located on the second floor of Plemmons Student Union Business Office 262-2157 • Editorial Office 262-3104 & 262-6233 �APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 14 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 2 Boone police officers pedal for safety BY DANE PERRY Stacc WRITER STAFF community relations.

But Yes I Am lacks the ration and the heart of songs like Late :mber Dogs and Chrome Plated Heart her first album. Her first three releases ied to reflect much growth in Etheridge's id music, and Never Enough—the third stood as the peak of the trio, with irimental sounds (like the solo piano balTie Letting Go ) being introduced.

Never Enough brought together Etheridge's distinct sound and lyrics with a new musical twist: harmony in background vocals and new, different musical sounds. Etheridge never experimented with har­ mony until Never Enough, and that album resulted in a terrifically mature-sounding project which marked Etheridge's growth as a musician and as a person. It would seem logical that Yes I Am would be a step above Never Enough, but it isn't, sounding instead like a hasty response to fans' demands for more music. There are a few bright spots though: All American Girl— for example—is probably the best song on the disc and makes a strong political state­ ment about women's position in society. It is also a musical high point. Most likely Etheridge fans are so dedicated that they will buy the album unheard, eager with anticipation to be mesmerized by Etheridge's usually captivating style. Unfor­ tunately, her new album falls well below the standards she established for herself on previ­ ous efforts.

His bad luck will follow him to the some­ what safer haven of television, especially if future episodes of The Chevy Chase Show turn out to be anything like the premiere episode. The main problem with Chevy's first show was the apparent lack of any major-league excitement. The whole show ran on cruisecontrol, there were no high pointsor climaxes, or nothing that one could recall and think, 'That was funny!" Not even Goldie Hawn and Whoopi Goldberg, his first guests, were able to generate much excitement Many of the jokes and sight gags were predictable, something that should never oc­ cur during a show that is taped live. Chase is best remembered for his Gerald Ford impres­ sions, tripping and falling over everything in sight. Well, Chase reincarnated this deaderthan-dead concept for his new show. Toward the beginning of the show, he knelt before a vat of wet cement in order to imprint his hands and feet. I remember saying, "He's gonna fall in." Suddenly, the camera flew back to a long shot of Chase and the wet cement, and sur­ prise! He fell in. During the middle of the show. Chevy presented Goldie's son with a birthday cake. Once again, I was able to guess what was about to occur—the inevitable drop­ ping of the cake. The return of his famous "News Update" segment failed to spark any fireworks. Even the audience was unimpressed with jokes about the war in Bosnia, among other serious subject matters. The only thing that saved the show was, oddly enough, Chase himself. Even though he was nervous, he gave a really good perfor­ mance. His smirky man-of-a-thousand faces bit has not lost its touch. But the thing thatscares me the most is that the first episode is usually a beefed-up ver­ sion of what is yet to come. I'm willing to bet The Chevy Chase Show will be gone by Halloween.

They witnessed a tasteful,professional ^inspirational concert intensified by indible musicianship and instrumental fiise. However,the fifty-plus members of the ^fence were most proud because this rerkable performance was given by an ASU Sinus. fCirby graduated from ASU in 1988 with a :helor' s degree in clarinet performance and isic education. A former student of ASU's tysglas Miller, he performed four works itten by classical and modern composers, i was accompanied by Gregory Morris on o. fcrby began his performance with the modi Time Pieces by Robert Muczynski. Each four movements explored a different mood and technical aspect of clarinet perfor­ mance. The first segment incorporated syn­ chronous clarinet/piano interplay highlight­ ing arpeggiated, oddly melodic runs and syn­ copated rhythms. Kirby's penchants for se­ lecting interestingly rhythmic pieces and for executing each phrase seamlessly and com­ pletely were strong points of the first number and evident throughout the evening. Muczynski's second movement was a mel­ ancholy study in tonal and dynamic control. A nearly inaudiblebeginning snowballed across soundscapes of color, evolving into a beauti­ ful, insistent cadenza punctuated by Kirby's letter-perfect articulation. Only slightly tarnished by instrumental problems, the first selection set an eccentric and highly controlled, yet soulful tone for what was to come. Kirby was joined on the second selection, Bernard Crusell's Rondo for Two Clarinets and Piano, by his former teacher Douglas Miller. The most traditional piece of the evening, the Rondo was performed flawlessly by the duo and impeccably accompanied by Morris, whose playing was flawless throughout the evening. The captivating piece was accented by colorful two-part melodies executed succinctly by the two clarinets. Following a ten-minute intermission, Kirby reentered and performed the evening's most eccentric and contemporary work, Walter Mays' Eight Pieces. The eight short musical excursions were bound by a thread of odd meter and circular thematic statements. Throughout the work Kirby's phrasing, dy­ namic control, and togetherness with the ac­ companist could only have come from as seasoned an ensemble and solo performer as Kirby. Before the fifth of the eight pieces, pianist Morris attached dampers to several of the upper-register piano strings. When played, those notes would make short staccato sounds in opposition to the more sustained sound of the undampened strings. The playful piano and clarinet figures of this piece bounced around the hall like popcorn in a hot air popper. The levels of artistry and intensity that illuminated the Kirby and Morris performances of the Mays compositions could not have been topped by the evening's final Sonata by Francis Poulenc, and it wasn'L However anticlimactic, the three-movement piece was well performed, and featured the concert's most involved accompaniment. Overall, the concert was far more enter­ taining than I expected it to be. Kirby, a doctoral candidate at the Cincinnati College's Conservatory of Music, gave a memorable performance that made me wish I could have seen him perform during his college days. The vitality of this performance has also caused me to consider taking in more perfor­ mances throughout the year by our own student performers. frVeachin' the blues in the past and present ^ BY CHRIS MARTIN REPORTER Blues") pioneered the twelve-bar blues pro­ gression.

Technically, this column—this space— should be used for 'entertainment-related' material—record and film reviews,gallery openings, book reviews, band gigs, those sorts of things. That, in theory at least, is what this page ought to be about. But right now I am up to my eyelashes in topical questions—the lopsided, rhetorical ques­ tions which always manage to make the sky turn metallic shades of gray. When did art become an oil-on-canvas picture-postcard hanging over a suburban hearth, purchased for the purpose of ge­ neric, uninvolving decoration, with the im­ plicit approval of an appointed panel of self-proclaimed government experts? When did the ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness become an exclusive club for only the chosen among us, ma­ nipulated to exclude those elements of our society of whom we don't approve or feel comfortable around? When did the civil rights designed to eliminate"colored" en­ trances, bathrooms and water fountains, along with hundreds of years of vicious de jure and de facto segregation and extermi­ nation, become bad things? When did the luxuries of some classes of people become more important than the basic, human needs of others? When did I acquire the right to foist my approval or disapproval upon the relation­ ships of others—matters which are none of my business? When did women's renun­ ciation of barefoot pregnancies and HoneyI'm-home!-subservience become the end of Western Civilization as we know it? When did the human right of an individual to fall in love become subject to the scru­ tiny of legislative bodies, senate subcomm ittees and total strangers who should mind their own business? When did destroying every living thing—human and other­ wise—on this planet become acceptable as a business strategy, an economic strategy or a personal philosophy? My questions could go on until the sun goes supernova, but I've got to get back to the real world and continue with the busi­ ness of the day. In my head, I've been turning a variety of things over and over— brooding over a number of things which creep around in the world and occasionally surface behind whatever cloak might be convenient at any given moment. Some­ times it's on the front page of the major regional and national newspapers, but on others, it's right in your own back yard. To digress slightly, I am reminded (as I write this piece) of film maker Ingmar Bergman. Bergman, in his autobiography The Magic Lantern, discusses his brief flirtation with—or seduction by—the smoothly packaged fascism of the early twentieth century. Bergman noted that it all sounded good to him at the time— fascism was beautiful and bold, and it was sold to the public as the strident comeback of all that was civilized, noble and moral. He stated that "the surface luster blinded me, and I did not see thedarkness." He also mentioned the feelings of self-loathing and despair that overtook him when World War II ended and the incomprehensible reality of over six million systematically exterminated human beingsslapped him in the face. Bergman—a great artist—real­ ized that, in respect to politics and interpre­ tations of morality, he had been a sucker— guilty by association only, but guilty none­ theless—and the lingering feelings of shame would never disappear completely. I would contrast Bergman's painful re­ membrances with the work of holocaust survivor Primo Levi, in his last completed book, The Drowned and the Saved. Levi, in the first chapter,elaborates some thoughts regarding the state, and it's ability to influ­ ence the opinions and values of the popula­ tion as a whole. Levi states, "The pressure that a modem totalitarian statecan exercise over the individual is frightful. Its weap­ ons are substantially three: direct propa­ ganda or propaganda camouflaged as up­ bringing, instruction and popular culture; the barrier erected against pluralism of information; and terror." Levi, who sur­ vived torture and near-starvation, only to die by his own hand in 1989, knew inticoncludes with the observation that the conditions which nourished the evils of See EUPHEMISM page 6 �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 14 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 6 WE ARE EVERYWHERE!

This year will mark the ninth anniversary the annual Game Ball Run. Just before irise, the brothers begin what will be an allrelay race from Boone to Winston-Salem, ree vans help transport the fraternity while e brother runs alongside the road. The men take turns running and carrying football. Each runs about two miles, but distance varies according to how far he is le to run. The race, which is 96 miles long, irmally over by five o'clock in the after"Sometimes cars even stop and give us ations," said Pete Kindem, the Game Ball nan. "Since this is our ninth year, ople around Boone know about it and come lip us out." |To end the Game Ball Run, several Sigma i brothers run into the stadium for the ASU/ |ake Forest game and hand the ball to the ne officials. | Game Ball Run raises one-third of the The atauga County budget for the American • Society. According to Doug Harris, co-coordinator of the program, the run raised close to $10,000 last year and will hopefully beat that figure this year. Each "Sometimes it's difficult to get Boone busi­ nesses to sponsor us,"said Kindem. "They're hesitant Sigma Nu brothers wait for fellow brothers participating in the Game Ball Run. (Photo courtesy of Sigma Nu fraternity) The day that Sigma Nu runs to Wake Forest has been proclaimed"Sigma Nu Game Ball Run Day" by North Carolina Governor Jim Hunt. Former Governor James Martin started the tradition and has commended the Sigma Nu brothers for their dedication to the fight against cancer. Appalachian's Sigma Nu brothers hope to get more publicity this year than in past years. They hope to have either Chancellor Borkowski or someone from their national headquarters hand off the ball to begin the run. Rich Brenner from television station WGHP will meet the runners and give them some television coverage. The fraternity keeps no part of the dona­ tions they receive. Many things are taken care of for them, including the use of the vans. They hope to have restaurants donate food and beverages for the run. Kindem said that after all of the hard work that goes into the run, the most fulfilling part is the "actual run of the ball." "It's better than Homecoming or any party you could go to," he said. "It's something you'll remember; you can always say you ran a ball from ASU to Wake Forest." This year's Game Ball Run is dedicated to Sandy Walker,Andy Walker,and Chris Clark, three Sigma Nu brothers who died last year. "They were a big part of the Game Ball Run," said Kindem. "Andy even ran the ball into the stadium last year." as each pledges $250. In return, the fraternity pro­ motes the sponsors by printing the compa­ nies' names on T-shirts and included them in radio announcements. munity. "We want people to see that we're doing something good," said Hams. "We're con­ stantly fighting negative publicity, but every­ body is doing good things." Music will be provided by a DJ. Tailgate parties will be a major function for seniors this year. Every home game will be preceded by a party on the Duck Pond Field. The committee also plans Se­ nior Week, which includes added discounts for seniors who visit cer­ tain businesses and restaurants. Se­ niors will receive stickers to place on their identification cards which will indicate their senior status. The senior banquet, the recep­ tion at fall commencement, and the senior class gift are other senior landmarks the committee coordinates. They keep seniors informed through newsletters.

"THIS OLD BO* 1 (hlfcWR, mu,EA 1 \ S Anti-Semitic incidents rise 12% on campuses NEW YORK—Anti-Semitic incidents against Jewish college students increased by 12 percent i n 1992 despite a general deel ine in such incidents as a whole, the Anti-Defama­ tion League reported. There were 114 anti-Semitic incidents re­ ported on 60 college campuses in 1992. Since 1988, the number of incidents has more than doubled. The ADL recorded a total of 1,730 anti-Semitic incidents nationwide,a decrease of eight percent over 1991. 'There is a troubling atmosphere on cam­ pus," said Melvin Salberg, ADL national chair­ man. "Jewish college students are feeling especially vulnerable as they are confronted by an intensive wave of anti-Semitism." The 1992 "Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents" was prepared by the research department of the ADL Civil Rights Division. It is an account of overt acts or expressions of antiJewish bigotry or hostility. Two incidents are reported in a summary of the audit. One occurred at Queens College in New York City when dead cats from an ani­ mal science lab were dropped into toilets in another campus building with a warning writ­ ten on the wall, "We're going to do to Jews what we to the cats." At Brown University in Providence, R.I., clothing in dryers was de­ faced with slogans such as "Jews Go Home" and "No Jews." Although overall reported hate crimes against Jews fell in 1992,Salberg warned that there is still danger. "One year of decline is not a trend," he said. "Unfortunately, we still face a serious problem in our country. Be­ hind each of these statistics lies a community outraged, a family intimidated, an individual humiliated and demoralized." New York led the nation with 325 inci­ dents, down 120 from 1991, followed by New Jersey with 227 incidents, up 32; Cali­ fornia, 210, down 36;and Florida,172, up 81. The league published a security handbook for institutions and a program to combat antiSemitism on campus. The ADL, founded in 1913, is a civil rights and human relations organization based in New York that com­ bats anti-Semitism and all forms of bigotry and discrimination, and promotes harmoni­ ous relations between diverse religious and ethnic groups. —CPS KRISTINE FORREST- EDITOR AMY L. TERRANT - ASSISTANT Bagpipes on the beach KRISTINE FORREST ET CETERA EDITOR Labor Day weekend, I was able to go down to the beach for what will probably be my last vacation of the season. The weather was cloudy, but I was content sitting in my folding chair while listening to the waves and reading a book. Ordinarily, loud noises on the beach don't surprise me. I'm used to screaming children, barking dogs, squawking seagulls, and even jet planes flying overhead. What I'm not used to is someone playing the bagpipes. Everyone around me stopped what they were doing and stared at the man next to me who had been quietly sitting on his towel. There he stood in the sand, his stomach hanging over his bathing suit and green plastic sunglasses sliding down his nose. As he blew into the instrument, Scottish tunes began to drown out the sound of waves. My first impulse was to laugh. I've been going to the beach my entire life, but never had I seen anyone play more than a radio. I assumed that the peoplearound me were just as irritated as I was by the bagpipe music, but gradually a crowd began to gather. Apparently, the notes could carry quite a good distance down the beach. Anyone within earshot came walking in our direction to see where the curious notes were coming from. Bagpipes certainly aren't something you hear everyday. The people seemed to genuinely enjoy the music and after every song they applauded loudly and enthusiasti­ cally. It wasn't until I glanced at the man's face that I understood what wasreally happening: the bagpipe player was completely elated because he was practicing his own, personal art. Not only was he performing for the people standing in front of him, he was also performing for himself. There is an abundance of "personal art" around us constantly, yet we often take it for granted. On warm afternoons, Appalachian students are often serenaded by musicians playing on campus. They sit in the sun strumming their guitars or playing a variety of other instruments. Like the bagpipe player, these musicians are completely immersed in the notes they're producing. It seems to be almost a spiritual experience, as if they never noticed people forming a circle around them. Although I wouldn't quite put them in the same category, people who hum and sing to themselves do it for the same reason the more elaborate musicians do: for their own personal gratification. Even I'll admit that I sing to myself if no one else is around. There's something comforting about hear­ ing your own voice produce notes, as off-key as they might be. Music isn't the only method of expres­ sion that people do just for themselves. One of my closest friends is an artist who can create incredible pieces of work. In high school she spent hours in art class painting canvases to be put on display in the main office. Although she had some beautiful pieces, it wasn't until I saw some of the paintings in her room that I saw her true talent. Her best works were created for herself; she wasn't out to impress anyone and never considered putting them on dis­ play. The only way I could ever relate to these musicians and artists is through my writing. As an English major, my days are full of churning opt papers. Writing for the news­ paper also requires quite a bit of time at the keyboard (especially considering my lack of typing skills, but that's another article en­ tirely). In other words, I'm constantly writ­ ing for other people. It's not until I come home and open my journal that I can completely relax and let the words flow. I don't have to go back and read over anything I've written; I can become obsessed with my own thoughts and what they want to say on paper. There is definitely something liberating about not having to make an impression on anyone. I can't see the bagpipe player ever trying to sell tickets to his "ocean-side re­ vue," yet hisspontaneity and (yes, I'll admit) talent were enough to attract a crowd of 3eople. Not only can we enjoy being creative for oursel ves, we can also get pleasureout of the talents of others. The next time you walk past a man sitting on a bench strumming a guitar, listen moreclosely. Just keep in mind that he's probably not playing for you. �/ TIIE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 14 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 8 Next meeting September 21, 6:30 pm 135 Rankin Science.

Moore said hewas disappointed in his team's offense and did not enjoy the prospects of being 0-2 to start the season. "Next week we'll play our toughest non-conference oppo­ nent of the year and then we start with the Southern Conference. Hopefully we can for­ get all the things we've done by the time the conference season starts." Moore's squad will travel to Winston-Sa­ lem next weekend to face regional rival Wake Forest before opening the conference slate with The Citadel the next week. The status of senior split end Craig Styron was unclearat press time. Styron was to have surgery Monday for a fractured jaw received during Saturday's contest and the football staff did not know whether he would play at Wake Forest next week. ady Spikers go winless in Va. Tech Tourney CHRIS WINKLER REPORTER This past weekend the Lady Apps volleyill squad played their first tournament of ie year. ASU started strong with an opening ame win 15-6 over Montana State. "This was a learning experience,"explained oach Markland. The Lady Apps started the eekend with a 15-6 win over MontanaState 1 the first game of that match. They confin­ ed to dominate the second game with a 15*Mn> 2 win. The third game proved to be the trning point of the weekend. The Lady DG, Bi COMPILED BY PIIIL MCCARN ACTING EDITOR The Lady Mountaineer Women's Club occer team played a scrimmage match against le Winston-Salem Wildcards on Sunday, §1 ePt. 12. The Lady Apps came away on the 'ortendof a 3-2 score, but learned a lot about 'hat they have to do to prepare for the 1993 ^ ;ason opener against Wake Forest. The Wildcards, members of the North Caro^1 "a Women's Soccer League, gave the Lady o/i fountaineers an idea of how experience can r>unt in a close match. Appalachian took an early 1-0 lead on a °al from Aundrea Clark, with an assist from 'eth Erickson, but the Wildcards came back 3 he the match in the first half. The Lady ^PPS took a 2-1 lead when Becca Ransford PHIL MCCARN - ACTING EDITOR Against VirginiaTech, the match went 1215,6-15,7-15. Then Dayton proved to be too much as they swept ASU 11-15,7-15,5-15. Both matches had similar characteristics. The Apps offense was too predictable. "I'm pleased with the great effort," said ment" Markland. "We just needed to mix up our The floor defense proved to be the Lady Apps' asseL Amy Kolomechuk had a team setting and hitters." In both these matches the Apps came across high 17 digs, while Sheri Leverette and two excellent blocking teams. This has been Michelle Wright each had 14 digs. "Our floor defense was outstanding," stated the first time this year that the ladies have seen Markland. Heidi McElhaney provided the this. "Overall we played greatdefenseand passed offense with a hitting percentage of .412 per­ extremely well. We need to take advantage of cent (also a team high). Apps were shut out for the rest of the match, causing them to suffer the loss. Markland said, "I was disappointed in the mental let down in the third game. This proved to be costly the rest of the tourna­ scored after a cross from Carolyn Mahoney. The Wildcards scored twoquick goals withing a two-minute span to pull out the victory. "Our team is very young, with 11 freshmen and eight sophomores, and they are still learn­ ing our system," said headcoach BobGoddard. " John Cox (assistant coach) has them playing a 4-4-2 formation, a change from the 4-3-3 we played in the past, so even our older players are learning a new system." 'The heat in Winston also seemed to affect our players in the second half, and we will work on our conditioning even more this week to overcome our defensive let down in the second half," added Goddard." We have the talent to do well this season, and we can see now what we must do to become success­ ful.." Sunday's match against Wake Forest will be played at the State Farm complex at 2 p.m. all our hitters, especially Deanna Keen, in the middle," added Markland. Keen was named to the all-tournament team for her overall play in all three games. This week marks the first home game for the squad. Wednesday, Sept. 15 is ASU versus W inthrop in Varsity Gymnasium, then the squad the heads to Davidson to open up conference play. The team is still switching setters Kathy Granack and Kim Manis. The seniors again showed leadership and poise. This week is important for the squad as they look to stay above .500 and begin the conference strong. Despite a solid performance from Mattie-Jean Hunt, the Appalachian field hockey team fell to Wake Forest of the Atlantic Coast Conference on Sunday, 3-0. Hunt had 37 saves. Another standout for Appalachian was Megan Corideno who had three of Appalachian's five shots on goal, (photo by Sean Pollock) Seven football teams from the Southern Conference were in action during week two of the 1993 football season. The following are scores and highlights from those games. Georgia Southern 16, The Citadel 6: Georgia Southern capitalized on a Citadel fumble early in the first half. Junior kicker Reed Haley was the star of Georgia Southern's (2-0,1-0), the first ever Southern Conference win with three field goals. The Citadel's (0-2,0-1) single touchdown came from Everette Sands. Georgia Southern will travel this week to take on Marshall and the struggling Citadel will play Western Carolina (0-0, 0-1) in Asheville. East Tennesee State 24, Mars Hill 0 ETSU (0-0, 2-0) quarterback Gabe Berry has every reason to be celebrating after his team's impressive win this past Saturday. Berry threw three touchdown passes while recording 236 yards. This exceptional passing display came af­ ter an equally impressive performance last week where Berry threw for263 yards against Wingate. ETSU will be playing VMI (0-0,0-1) this weekend. Marshall 29, Murray State 3 Marshall (2-0), the Division I-AA top ranked team plowed through an unproduc­ tive first half to decisively defeat Murray State. Sophomore Chris Parker rushed for 160yards which included a 32- yard touchdown play late in the second half. Marshall will square off against the Southem Conference newcomer Georgia Southern this Saturday. Ga. Tech 37, Furman 3 Georgia Tech's running game took a big bite out of the Furman defense by rushing for 347 yards. Senior tailback Dorsey Levens ignited the Yellow Jacket offense by rushing for 112 yards. The Paladins (0-0, 1-1) will be playing Wofford at home this weekend. Mississippi 40, UT-Chattanooga 7 UT-Chattanooga (0-0,1-1) su f fered a deci sive deafeat Saturday despite the efforts ol junior quarterback Kenyon Earl who threw for 149 yards. Gamer-Webb college will be traveling th weekend to meet UT-Chattanooga in the tw team's first meeting.

THURSDAY 9 SEPTEMBER 1993 Community walks for awareness 650 students, faculty and members of the community participated in silent walk BY DANE PERRY STAFF WRITER An estimated 650 students, faculty and community members gathered on Tuesday night to march across campus and through town in memory of Jeni Gray and to take a stand against violence. Jeni Gray was an Appalachian student abducted and murdered on SepL 24, 1989. Since that year the school has sponsored a walk in her memory. This year's walk started at the Dougherty Administration Building and went through town ending at the Lois Harrill Senior Center. The march opened with speeches by Bar­ bara Daye, associate vice chancellor of stu­ dent development, and Jane Nicholson, as­ sistant director of the Appalachian News Bureau. 'Tonight a bell will ring every four min­ utes as a reminder to us that a woman is raped every four minutes," said Daye. "We also have white ribbonsas a sign that we can stop violence and in remembrance of those who have been victims." The walk across campus was conducted in silence. "We ask that you walk in silence so each of you can think about your actions and behavior towardsall people. Do not think in terms of anger but in how you can make a difference," said Nicholson. Once the crowd reached the Lois Harrill Senior Center they heard speeches from Chancellor Dr. Frank Boikowski, Dr. Donald Sanz, director of ASU Counseling Center, and Leigh Cooper Wallace, a student ab­ ducted and sexual assaulted by the same man who murdered Gray. Borkowski addressed the crowd, saying that if we are to move into this world and make it better for the people who must follow us, then we m ust be a part of stoppi ng violence. Borkowski then talked about a new campaign called "Tell Someone." 'This is a campaign to rise over the fear that so many who have been victimized to speak to someone, anyone about it," said Borkowski. Sanz then spoke to the crowd about be­ coming a hero and standing up against vio­ lence. "In four years from the time she was ab­ ducted, she was taken no more than 50 yards from this spoL We still have violence and I challenge you to stop it," said Sanz. "There is risk to standing up against violence, yet it is not right for us to ask women to stop being assaulted. We must ask those who are doing it to stop." Sanz brought with him a message from Jeni Gray's father who told students to "be aware, but do not withdraw from life. Know the basis of your faith." The last speaker was Wallace, who was abducted and sexually assaulted by the same man five days after Gray was abducted. Wallace's main message to the crowd was to talk to someone if you are a victim of violence. "It would be nice if there was no violence, but if you are victimized, tell someone. People 1 knew as well as strangers helped me to my recovery," said Wallace. Wallace is now married and has a two-yearold son and the man who abducted her and murdered Jenny Gray is on death row. After the hearing the speakers, the crowd was led in the singing of "We're Gonna Keep on Moving Forward, Never Turning Back, Never Turning Back." As the crowd sang, students and members of the community put together a puzzle with the message "In vio­ lence we forget who we are," by Mary McCarthy. Daye ended the walk by offering the stu­ dents a message from a speech Howard Thurman gave to students at Spelman College in 1981. "There is something in everyone of us that waits and listens to the genuine in ourselves. It is the only guide we willever have. If we can not hear it we wi 11 all our lives spend our days on the ends of strings that someone else pulls." When asked about the turn out and success of the event, Nicholson said, "I was really pleased that so many groups from campus participated. Their participation is what makes the Walk for Awareness so effective every year." Boone Policeestimated a crowd of650. SGA President J.D. Adams also added, "I though it was very moving for so many stu­ dents to show up. It was impressive and I hope that they take back to campus the message of ending violence." Chancellor Francis T.

ASU forms referendum committee BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER The fates of a new Science/Mathematics complex and AcademicSupport Service Build­ ing for Appalachian State will be decided by North Carolina voters on November 2. This is when a four-part S740 million bond referen­ dum will be decided upon. To help educate local voters on the bond, Appalachian has created a bond steering com­ mittee which is comprised of representatives from the community. The delegation hopes to create a grassroots movement through mass letter writing campaigns and call-in media outlets. The bond package has four parts: S310 million in university improvement bonds, $250 million in community college bonds, $145 million in clean water bonds, and $35 million in state parks bonds.

ASU loan defaulty rate 2nd lowest in system Staff and CPS—A new report by the Department of Education hasstudents concerned over whether their school is on the list of 900 colleges and trade schools that may lose federal loan funding due to high student loan de­ fault rates. For some of the threatened institu­ tions, most of which are two-year,forprofit career schools, it could mean closing their doors, according to Stephanie Babyak.a spokesperson for the Department of Education. The national default rate for student loans was 17.5 percent in 1991, the latest year figures were available, a decline from 22.4 percent in 1990. In N.C. the 1991 average is 17.1 percent "Defaults are one important mea­ sure of a school's performance," said U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley. "This year's overall rate drop shows most schools are taking their jobs seriously, but many others must do better." Appalachian's default rate is 1.8 percent, the second lowest of the 16 state universities. Chapel Hill has the lowest default rate, 1.6 percent. Act­ ing Director of Financial Aid, Robert Feid says that Appalachian's low rate exists for several reasons. "We (the university) attribute the low default rate to students who bor­ row only what they need, the students' strong commitment to repayment, and excellent counseling," he said. Appalachian requires students who receive loans to go through entrance and exit counseling. Before any student can receive a loan, they must attend a loan counseling session, which covers obligations and repay­ ment information. Then, before a stu­ dent graduates, they must go through which again a counseling session emphasises student obligations. A law enacted in 1989 makes it possible for the Department of Educa­ tion toeliminate funding to any school with a default rale of at least 30 percent over three consecutive years. The new report reflects figures from 1989,1990, and 1991. "We want students to know that if they have a loan, and their school is out, they can continue to use that loan," Babyak said. He noted that there are also special programs being set up that allow a student to continue his or her education at a neighboring school should a school close down. The schools can appeal and con­ tinue to receive funding until the ap­ peal is exhausted, Babyak said. "Schools must offer financial coun­ seling. People need to understand their obligations to repay, their rights and responsibilities as borrowers," Babyak said, noting that in certain cases, students have not realized that a loan is not a grant,and that they had to pay back the money. It is also necessary for schools re­ ceiving funding to offer education and training to help students pay off their loans, Babyak said. "Some schools aren't doing this. They rush kids in the door, then ait the door," she said. Officials are concerned that many of the students get the training neces­ sary to hold a job to pay back the loan when they graduate, said Babyak. In addition, colleges and trade schools must also make certain the student will benefit from the educa­ tion. "For example, if a student doesn't speak English well, they need to take English language classes," she said. The department estimates the de­ faulted student loans willcost taxpay­ ers $2.5 billion in the current fiscal year, down more than $1 billion from the 1991 total of $3.6 billion. "By working closely with state agencies, we can better protect the taxpayers' and students' investments in education," said David Longanccker, assistant secretary for postsecondary education. In addition to identifying schools that may be disqualified from federal aid pro­ grams, the department released lender, guaranty agency, and state-by-state default rates for the first time.

Who cares? BY DAVID HUGHES COMMENTARY EDITOR ' nly everyone has seen the extensive mediacoverf Burt and Loni's breakup. This situation rubs me the g way for many reasons. However, in a nutshell, I ly believe that it is a very patheticexample of alues of American culture, headlines have been graphic enough, but the illiterate grocery shoppers out there, tabloid photos have provided an equally ic representation of the tale, some reason,or perhaps for many reasons, divorce of these two very visible stars.of ision and the silver screen has absolutely the attention of our nation. I traveled gh Colorado, Utah, and Idaho, as well as y states between North Carolina and the rican West this past summer. Burt and i's dirty laundry graced the grocery store kout lanes and gas station cash register ters in every state I passed through. What ? Why are Americans so interested in this typical drama? I thought that most people Id get their fill of messy divorce proceed, infidelity, and shallow characters on Days ur Lives! operas are either a symptom of an all-tooIcial American mind-set, or part of the lem. I haveoften questioned the desire of so y people in this culture to watch gore, smut, generally superficial behavior on the tube, of the answer to this question lies in our need xcitement. When there is an accidenton the way, we all look, seeking some glimpse of id excitement to break the monotony of our normal, g, working-class lives. Is this reaction instinctual or just that we are indeed that bored? operas provide us with an escape to an imaginary Id of excitement, romance, lust, courage, wealth, and ss. The average Joe can tune in to watch Luke kick Quartermain butt, a feat that Joe would never have opportunity nor the bravado to attempt in real life, ge Jane can derive some vicarious thrill watching get swept off her feet by some tall, handsome, rich e Charming. When people, no mater how strong personal defenses may be, watch television for hours ry day on their "soap tour," the shallow values exhibby the characters begin to rub off on them. Thus, ugh the show may only function as an escape from ity through fantasy, real people become influenced by se mini moral dramas. Could this be partially respone for a deterioration in family values and thus inditly related to rising divorce rates? Exercise extreme caution, because after the soaps and Divorce Court, it is time to catch the Cops re-runs! I think I will get a bigger gun, like the one I saw on the TV! Another thing that really irks me about the Burt and Loni break up, is the fact that the details of their private lives are really none of my business. In fact, I resent having this garbage forced on my optical senses with large, bold headlines beside vet another nicture of Loni's cleavage! I do not want Burt or Loni to know the status of my personal relationships because in the real world, they are complete strangers. Only one's genuine friends, (or therapist in our sick society), should know the more personal details concerning one's life. At the very least, the scandalous maneuvering of plastic idols should not be left for kids to read right beside the M&M's. The grocery store is a family place, for God's sake! However, as a culture, we have this morbid fascination with the intimate and often gory details of a situation. We watch Beverly Hills 90210, The Young and The Rest­ less, and a whole slew of other shows that allow us to feel this artificial sense of excitement However, these shows are extremely unhealthy. They make us feel inadequate, because our bodies are not perfect, we do not drive BMW's, and we actually have bad-hair days. Thus, people want toknow every gory detail about Burt and Loni because this stuff is even better than a soap opera...this is reality! But is it really? The tabloids make money from the sale of their respec­ tive (but not respected) publications. Therefore, the more din that they can get on Burt and Loni, the more issues they sell, and thus, the more money that they make. We are being duped, people. Did Loni really give birth to a space alien? Well, someone is getting rich making us think so. Watch for the ABC Movie of the Week, interspersed with heavy-breasted beer commercials. Then you will get the real inside story. This obsession with the realm of fan­ tasy so prevalent in our society manifests itself in many very destructive ways. Burt and Loni are real-life symbols of the shallow, materialis­ tic, perpetually "young and restless" values to which the fantasy world of television make us all wish to conform. Look around you. There are far too many men that reject the natural processes of maturity by replacing their thin­ ning hair with expensive hair transplants. Well, that isOK, because Burt wears a toupee to ward off the aging process. Heck, he is a big starand we all want to be successful and famous, just like him....right? Look at all the women today who paid big bucks for bigger breasts through the magic of silicone implants, just to more closely re­ semble the ideal put before us by the media's elite. I have a really hard time with the idea that real women pay outrageous amounts of money to be more like Vanna White and Loni. Sadly enough, this senseless pursuit of vanity and fantasy has maimed some real women in the real world when their silicone sacks ruptured. The moral to this sick tale is that we all need to get real. Burt and Loni are horrible role models to look up to. How long did their marriage last anyway? It seems like only yes­ terday that the same cheesy tabloids published stories about the marriage of this ideal pair. Fantasy is notall bad, in fact,fantasy in moderation can be therapeutic, but when the values of an entire society are directed from the hypnotic effects of the television set, we have a real problem. So get your own real life. Find out what you are about. Explore your own mind and heart and forsake the stereotypic roles put before us on 121 channels of cable TV. Life i&so much more than the outward appearances of receding hairlines, breast size, body fat, wrinkles and fatness of the lower lip. Be creative and be content with yourself. Work toward this goal rather than the superf cial goal of vain beauty. It is hard work to improve upon your own character, and it is very easy to simply turn on the television for an escape. Get out of that lazy rut. When you are old and gray, would you rather be happy, creative, and wise, or do you want to be dissatisfied, insecure, "young, and restless?" The choice is your own.

THE US SHOULD STAY OUT OF BOSNIA To(thc Editor: x' v'xvx; In 1389, Prince Lazar fought a battle with the Ottaman Sultan. On the eve of the battle, legend has it thaithe Mother of God appeared bet ore Lazar, She offered him the choice between a heavenly empire, and an earthly empire. If he wanted the first, he was to prepare himself and his army for destruction. He wanted the second; he was to defeat the Turks. The Serbs lost; and Prince Lazar died on the "Field of Blackbirds". 60 years later the Serbian state was destroyed. The Kosovo battle represented the cata­ clysmic event that led to captivity. History has not been kind to the Serbs and the Croats. Forces have torn the area the same way lions rip the remains of a carcass. Since 284 AD, die borders have shifted to and fro with unbelievable irregularity. Serbs and Croats have been subservient to the Warsaw Pact, Austria, Ottoman Turkey, the Roman Empire and each other. Sarajevo isknown to the world as the location of the Olympics. In 1914, Sarajevo was best known as the location where Arch duke Ferdinand, the heir to the Hapsburg throne, was assassignated. This murder sparked WWf. After WWI, the Treaty of Versailles created Yugoslavia. It was the birth of a new nation, but it was a troublesome delivery. There were di ffcrent dialects,languages, religions, cultures and people. Thediveisemix hada history of not getting along. On December 1,1918, King Alexander declared that the three Yugoslav peoples in his kingdom were one nation with throe names. His declaration created a border, but not a country. He was assassignated by Croatian terrorists in 1934. Since 284 AD. the longest peace that Yugoslavia has seen was that provided by the dictatorship of Tito. He kept the peace with an iron fist Since his death in 1980, there has been no real ruling party in the country. Milosevic is the most popular current leader. On the 600th anniversary of the Battle of the Field of Blackbirds, he went to that field and promised a half a millionSerbs that they would neveragain be beaten. When seven US senators visited the former Yugosla­ via in 1990, Milosevic refused to sec them. The US should stay out of Bosnia. It is perfectly acceptable to drop some pallets of food. That kind of intervention will save lives...or at least postpone deaths. Sending troops to quell the unrest will have no more effect for us than it did for the Austrians. (They sent 100,000 in 1908 for the same reason.) If an outside country sent troops to the north or the south of the US in the year 1860,the onl y result would have been an increasein tensions,mistrust and resent­ ment toward the coutry that sent them. It would not have prevented the American Civil War,or the deaths caused by that calamity. The diversity that exists in the former Yugoslavia has created problems that will never be solved with the application of force.

Concerts are scheduled on the Lsday evening of each month while in session. Both vocal and instrumental selections are performed by faculty members. Trios, duets and soloists perform music by classical com­ posers. Rodney Reynerson, a pianist, will be the performer on Oct. 5. His main selections are works by Beethoven, Chopin, and Liszt He will perform Ravel's "Gaspard de la nuit" Reynerson is a graduate of Indiana University's School of Music and has per­ formed solo literature, chamber music, and piano concern throughout the East. Harbinson descibes him as an "amazing performer." The following month will present "An Evening of Stolen Gems." The production will feature Jon Beebe who defines "stolen gems" as "Masterworks composed for other instruments played on bassoon." Along with pianist Rodney Reynerson and other guest artists, Beebe will perform works by Telemann, Ravel, Schumann, Beethoven, and Rossini. Piano music lovers will have another op­ portunity to hear the instrument again in Feb­ ruary with the production "An Evening with the Piano Trio." Pianist Rodney Reynerson will return with violinist Glenn Muegel and cellist Kenneth Lurie. Works by Beethoven and Ravel will be performed. March brings "An Evening of Originals," which combines works by Bill Harbinson and Scott Meister. Harbinson has written music for soloists and chamber ensembles while Meister won the Hinda Honigman Gold Cup for Compositions. Meister is also efficient with composing electronic music. At "An Evening of Originals" two of the compositions will be premiered. Organist Max Smith will end his perfor­ mance career in the final production, "A Farewell Evening." Smith, a member of the music faculty for25 years, will perform Bach, Schubler, and Leipzig. Smith has been an organ instructor during his time at Appalachian as well as a key performer. The former chairperson and current professor is retiring. "Max Smith is a very important member of our faculty," said Harbinson. Smith's talents will be missed by the fac­ ulty, yet his final performance should leave a lasting impression as it will conclude the recital series. n slaying the angst merchants BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR Jy the Womb, a cassette mailed to the i of the Appalachian, was something of cry item.

But he doesn't get lost up any 'life ' cul-de-sacs either; he tends to zero in lat is—or what could become—human proverbial big city. He doesn't like personal theatrics and melodramatic grand­ standing: people who only wear black ("I am an artistl"), have clip-on ponytails or wear berets ("I don't trust anyone who wears a beret"). His verbal delivery is speed-of-light as he gleefully skewers the alienated youth, the porno cynic, and self-absorbed angst mer­ chants young and old alike. Life should have a point—there are no vuja-de retro recyclings of a past copped from PBS' uncut broadcasts of Woodstock, no trips into an idyllic emerald beyond, the heart of the sun or a pocket full of kryptonite. But there are hazards to be dodged: "We were walking up to Central Park. There's nothing to do at Central Park at four in the morning except get stabbed." The discarded pieces of modern society (shoes, garbage, philosophy books) are to be celebrated. Or they are to be feared. This is the quandary that makes Bomb the Womb fascinating and very funny, that neon laughter where you stop afterwards, and go "hmmm..." Bomb the Womb is a word tape where you watch all the spontaneous retroactive edens invented (ripped jean wearin,' language gyratin' "let me bor­ row five bucks for a double cappuccino and a pack of Gitane" —to paraphrase Andrei Codrescu) and you quiver with delight as they are all blown off the map, straight into some whacked out don't eat the brown acid hell. The tape is filled with weird, contradictory encounters: a tough-as-nails downtown party full of hip, very hip people; an involuntary encounter with the artist in a health food store; childhood tales that didn't make any sense then and still don't years later; the government. I guess the real point behind it all is entertaining storytelling—putting the litter back into literature. It's not exactly a comedy tape either—there are laughs aplenty, but there are also many deep tales of insight and wideeyed youngidealism rammed into 'yeah, right' nonbulls**tisms—you laugh, you get the big­ otry and the crime and smog and garbage, and then you laugh some more. I think this isextremcly noble. Theassumption is that the audience has a sense of humor, some smarts—not any kind of complicated 'intellect,' just some brains, some subtlety, some wit. On Bomb the Womb (the title is an Oedipal thing, he explains as growing up and getting away from home, or from security and safety, however you can, as quickly as pos­ sible) tongue is firmly planted in cheek. This trek into language never pretends to be politi­ cally correct, but if it was, it probably wouldn' t be funny. Or it wouldn't exist at all. Anyway these rants are nothing but short pieces of twisted greatness from the mind of a twenty-year-old who knows how to have fun with language in ways that few of us ever manage: words? fun? c'mon...that's some­ thing you get a gradeon, right? Or something you arrange with care and delicacy so you can sound important (i.e. the article you are reading right now), or so you can get out of some trouble. Right? Well, not exactly. If you've ever been interested in anything at all, at any lime, you know what this tape is about. Cynicism, novelty and fermenting greeting-card brain oozages, bad music, bad movies, traffic jams will all come and go, but Bomb the Womb is what we all know: crazy, neurotic babel that lets us know that the world is weird as hell. But hey,despite it all, life can be cool. Some­ times it'sgood to have a reminder. Bomb the Womb is available from Gang of Seven Records, PO Box 98, Larkspur, California, 94977-9998. Grade:*****(oul of five) - tangents, while addressing other areas of topical concern: political apathy and drug addiction, respectively. Kay wears his Stevie Wonder fixation too close to his sleeve—this shouldn't be a soundalike contest, and it highlights a major annoying tendency of this disc— "Hooked Up" and "Ifl Like It, I Dolt" both manage to (temporarily) override such com­ plaints entirely. Both tracks hint towards where this band could go (if they ever put their Weather Report albums away)—a dense and propulsive mix of eclectic musical influences, all moving swiftly towards substance without these guys seem to put more time and thought into their message and 'influences' than into any major ideas they might happen to de­ velop on their own. But at least the aerobic funk keeps things moving on, helps (on the good cuts) to distract from the constant influ­ ence plundering that is going on here. So, if "Too Young To Die" could be passed off as an outtake from Songs In The Key Of Life, well, at least its' heart is in the right place. sermonizing, challenging their audience to come along for the ride. Both songs are technically stunning—tasteful solos, discombobulated rhythms swirling, key changes and time signature changes popping up all over the place. Funk has rarely gotten as gnarled and knotty as this couple of tracks are, and Jamiroquai manage to accomplish this with some kinda soul, and without falling back on tired, worn-outChili Pepperisms. On these tracks - the two near-perfect ones here -thebanddoesn'thavetoshowoff. They just get your butt from point A to point B— the proverbial bottom line. "Hooked Up" and "If I Like It" are lyrical leaps forward as well—"Hooked Up" man­ ages to combine anti-drug sentiments with some not-so-oblique Sly and the Family Stone references ("dance to the music"). I expect the irony is explicitly intentional. And "If I Like It" addresses legislative homophobia— the lyrics can be read as a protest directed against England's restrictive "Clause 28" (similar to Colorado's crypto-fascist Amend­ ment 2). Both songs are sincere and gigantic progressive leaps forward, and they stand as the lyrical and musical high spots of this disc. However track fiveis where the alarm bells start to go off—it's a six-and-a-half-minute instrumental(uh-oh) called "Music of the Mind"(uh-oh). It reminded me of Weather Report - funky, but not funky enough. Jazzy, but not jazzy enough. And a deadly dose of the dread electronic ivory—is that a mellotron I hear whizzing up, up and away in the background? From here on out, an alarming (and given the quality of the first four cuts, nearly fright­ ening) falloff in quality kicks in. Looks like they stacked the good ones at the beginning of the disc to lure in the unsuspecting. Lyrics begin to unravel—the earlier examples were all well-stated, positive and coherent. But on the last songs ("Whatever It Is I Just Can't Stop,""Blow Your Mind,""Revolution 1993" ) the words become slogans, like Kay ran out of ideas midway into the recording of the disc. "Blow Your Mind" drowns in wave upon wave of bad fusion echoes,climaxing in something that sounds like a cross between Utopia (uh-oh) and Earth, Wind and Fire (yet another uh-oh). And, as for "Revolution 1993,"...I'm due back on planet Earth, OK? Hack off everything else, repackage the brilliant first four tunes, and call it an EP. It would bean absolute mother. Theother tunes manage the dubious accomplishment of col­ lapsing into every cliche the first four man­ age to avoid—in a strange way, a major accomplishment But not the right kind.

Still, it also cuts both ways; I've shopped in far more establishments than I've worked in, and this illuminating avenue into the ethics and philosophies of fence-sitting and drop-dead cynicism reveals a lot. I've gone shopping—on occasion, out of town, the bigger the mall, the better— and provoking the stupidity of some clerks turns into a game after a certain point. I remember one store in Winston-Salem,staffed by fash­ ionable idiots, where the "let's see how long this guy is going to follow me around" threatened to degenerate into a joke. I knew he was following me all over the establish­ ment; I think he knew that I realized this, and I figured "well, hell, let's let the guy earn his pay. I'll walk around in circles,and we'll see if he follows." The reason for his attentive diligence was, of course, fairly obvious. Clerk-in-question was a bigot who sees the world only in solid stereotypes, and since I've worked in retail, probably before clerkin-question even had his driver's license, I had to get out of there before the urge to put the dude in his place kicked in. Now from the other side (i.e. behind the counter), I' ve formulated some other, equally specific theories. I'm starting to believe that lots of people assume that we in the 'retail industry' are frustration toys (like those little plastic chew toys you throw to dogs), that we are blank slates available for any garbage that can bedumped upon us. "Hurry updamnit! I don't have all day. I gotta pick up my daughter from a piano recital," or "Don't give me that song and dance; just give me my damn change." I've grown up to believe that telling total strangers how to do their jobs (with no solicitation) is, well, rude. But, then again, I am a mere retail clerk—I'm not Emily Post. What do I know? Well, I do know that I, and everyone I have ever worked with, have never been paid and never will be paid enough to justify having to take unwarranted abuse from adults who never got the message that 40-yearolds throwing temper tantrums in public places, or private ones for that matter, is not exactly dignified or appropriate. Taking in­ sults ain't in the job description. I have also had a number of encounters with individuals who, before asking me a question, make some obvious generaliza­ tions (almost always wrong) regarding my intelligence, based upon my appearance. I worked in a bookstore for a few years, but there were still a couple of real prizes who were simply too stunned to believe that I could' ve possibly progressed beyondClifFs Notes. The temptation to send particular individuals home with copies of Thomas Pynchon, Roland Barthes, and Michel Foucault tomes was very hard to suppress, and required continual monitoring. And then there was the guy who took it upon himself to explain who George Gershwin and Irving Berlin were, and why I probably wouldalmost definitely not know anything about them. So let's face the music and dance, alright? Blue skies are shining on me—nothing but blue skies...do I see. In other words—there are a great many people in the retail trade who will throw you a blank and disaffected stare if you ask them what year it is or what state they arc in (entropy, perhaps?). However, there are equal numbers who will actually make an effort to provide straight answers to ques­ tions, andwho actually possess the knowl­ edge to back those answers up. We're not all brain-dead morons—trust me. And then there was the fight. This incident happened about a year after started to work (in a Charlotte store). It was Christmas; the place was packed, and sud­ denly a man started screaming and gesticu­ lating in the middle of the store. He was wresded down by the security guard—a big ex-Marine, and they both crashed through a large display onto the floor. Everyone in the store froze in place—a tense hush fell across the room. The guy managed to wiggle out from underneath the security ^uai dentally dropping a number of items See SHOPPING page 8 �THE APPALACHIAN, THURSDAY 9 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 8 Shopping Continued from page 7 (shoplifted merchandise and a bag filled with some variety of drugs) to the floor in the process, and then sprinted toward the front exit. We found his companions, and af­ ter some spirited and creative conver­ sation, we were able to get his name, mailing address and a telephone num­ ber (in case we might have wanted to reach him at home). There is truly no honor among thieves. Some subse­ quent investigating revealed that the thief in question was wanted on a number of outstanding warrants, and on several counts of assault with a deadly weapon. About two weeks later, there was a break in—glass was all over the front sidewalk when I showed up few work, and the VCR and television set were gone without a trace. Rough around the edges of racer rad In sevenor eight retail years(they 're like dog years, I think), 1 have seen windows smashed, lightning and vari­ ous other minor natural disasters, car wrecks in parking lots, adult temper tantrums, vomiting incidents, fight­ ing, harassing phone calls from the American Family Association (hmmm...), couples breaking up in the storeentrance at closing time, you name it. In the meantime, I have also indulged mysecret interest in becom­ ing a valet, a gofer, or perhaps a professional housekeeper—picking up gnawed-upon toothpicks, dirty snotrags, wiping up tobacco juice that has been spewed upon whatever flat surface might have been available at any given moment. Maybe I'll get rich by inventing the self-cleaning retail establishment Perhaps I'll go into business as a travelling bib dis­ tributor. BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR Radio leads off with a tune by a Los Angeles power-pop outfit called Wonderboy; this particular song ("Shouldn't I Know More By Now ) There is a very straightforward con­ cept behind Racer Radio,Vol. 1: start an independent record label (Racer Records), put together a sampler fea­ turing a couple of cuts by all of the artists signed to the label, take out some magazine ads (Utne Reader, Mother Jones, Village Voice ), and offer the sampler disc free of charge to anyone who dials the 800 number printed at the bottom of the ad. So, hey—free stuff. I went for it, and lo and behold, several days later, Racer Radio showed up in my very own ASU box. It was immediately obvious to me that a lot of care went into thedisc—the artwork is immacu­ late, the inner sleeve offers a para­ graph or so of important details about the various artists, along with order­ ing info, and, most importantly, the whole thing is digitally mixed and mastered. For a tiny indie label with a roster of only six artists, this is all very impressive. Which brings us to themusic. Racer has the power part of the equation down perfect, however the pop end of things could use a bit of work more Goo Goo Dolls than Big Star, for in­ stance. Next. Track two, "Rough Around The Edge" by upstate New Yorker Dennis Phelps sets things right, for a while at least This song (and the next—"Here And Now" by Garden Variety) is ba­ sic, rootsy guitar pop—meat-and-potatoes familiar, but still not without its virtues. Crisp acoustic strumming, bluesy solos and smooth, smooth back­ ing vocals make this cut a delight. "Here And Now," by Garden Vari­ ety is another leap forward. Remain­ ing in acoustic territory, this time livein-the-studio, this tune is jazzier than the classic-rocking Phelps, and Garden Variety successfully integrate a num­ ber of folk stylings—unpretentious male and female vocal arrangements, and violin are both prominent. This is alluring, and familiar, but very pleas­ ant in its' down-to-earth spontaneity. SIC Next is Big Umbrella's Bleach The Needle" —a much more dra­ matic slab of slightly retro flavored guitar pop—dark pop,complete with deep, jangling minor chords, suspenseful spaces written into the song, lotsa moodiness about love and desperation and romance and ennui ("I'm broken, I'm broken..."). The contrast of brooding, but tight musi­ cal arrangements and lighter, popstyle vocals (sorta sub-Crowded House vox) make for a near great song, and this is probably the peak of Racer Radio.

Lead singer 1| j mnessy' s voice explodes with 'it;J )tion and anger as he screams lad none of heaven/ had too iell/1 never cared what I did/ bly just as well", and "I'm •n my own trap!". Grinding ind pounding drums provide ical backdrop to this intense ther songs such as "Pansy" d Pig" also showcase this [indignation and power. There er side to "Dragline", also. In ridge", a spurned lover lais fate, while the touching tells the story of a young boy say goodbye to his faithful t . I I I dog before running away from home—"it's cold outside/and I'm not coming home/I don't know where to be/when the morning comes/and J esse you're a good dog/please don't fol­ low me/just go on home." Both songs contain harderguitar and rhythm parts, but soon segue into smoother, more melodic country-ballad interludes. Other examples of Paw's slower songs are "Lolita" and "Sleeping Bag." The title track combines both of these elements into the same song. "Dra­ gline" begins and ends with a burst of guitar noise and some of Hennessy's most inspired bellowing, then half­ way through turns into a gentle bal­ lad. Lyrically, the song is an affec­ tionate view of a small-town boy's relationship with his father. Paw's main strengths lie with their raw emotion and versatility. There isn't a song here that doesn't strike some kind of emotional nerve in the listener (assuming,of course, that they are actually listening). This feat is accomplished predominantly by Hennessy's impassioned singing, and lyrics that run a gamut of human feel­ ings. The wide emotional range is scored by the extremely talented band, with speed, tempo and noise adjusted to fit the overall mood. With "Dragline," the band proves itself to be one of the best bands around, and their music figures only to get stronger. This could change your perception of "alternative" mu­ sic forever. host Stories ming to ASU L.

'si Stories is delivered differrom the traditional typeof play, lay has universal appeal," said Simmons, who plays theTeller, with various other roles. "It theater to its primal roots— Hing." many characters in the play "trayed by only five actors. Each actors are responsible for twoor roles. "It's a great combination ing grandpa telling a story, then out a few characters, and then stories again," said Simmons, e are six scenes in the play j ach scene is based on a different ' by Stephen King. One of the Jfcs, "The Story of Timmy wman," is based on the novel Pet wary, a freaky novel in which 'family pets and eventually, dead ®n family members are brought back to life after burial in the myste­ rious "semetary." The setting of the play is unusual in Ghost Story, varying from stately mansions to broken down pickup trucks (during "UncleOtto'sTruck"). The mixture of set-design, light ef­ fects, and explosions should make a stimulating experience. Since this is a stage production, special effects displayed of the big screen are not possible. That leaves the description of the blood and gore up to the actors and the imaginations of the audience; which could prove to be more frightening. The storytelling effect of the play causes the audience to feel as if they were sitting around a campfire listen­ ing to scary stories. They always believe that they are part of the expe­ rience. "The audience is the extra person sitting around the campfire," Simmons said. "They are always included." Ghost Stories is playing one night only, 8 p.m. on Sept. 16 at Farthing Audi tori um. Tickets are $12 for ad ul ts and $6 for students. This play is not recommended for a younger audi­ ence because of the frightening story content. When you are finally sitting among the other audience members, anx­ iously awaiting the opening of the curtain, remember the words of Stephen King from Four Past Mid­ night: "I hope you are half as happy to be here as I am. Just saying that reminds me of a story, and since telling stories is what I do for a living (and to keep myself sane),I'll pass thisone along."

This is the band's trade­ mark, of course: "That's the price of love," sings Bernard Sumner (Albrecht) during the tersely titled World, but you have to wonder how serious he's being. A complete lack of human affect distinguishes every­ thing New Order does, yet you get the feeling that underneath the house beats and cold, melodic basslines (courtesy of Peter Hook)there lurks actual people who might mean everything they're saying about life and love. Or maybe I'm just gullible. Either way, this is a fine album. Work for The Appalachian, It's FUN!

I Sera e will be looking to Brian Jillings to IV©I te our offense, spark our defense and be r in the midfield," said Rex. "We also have to have production from our younger players," Rex said. Sophomores Jason Flassing, Rob Nance and Jay Lane will be firing it up on the Mountaineer front line. They will be assisted by redshirt Sean Garrett and freshman Allen John. Sophomore midfielder Brett Harrell is ex­ cited about the rest of the season. "We have a strong team with a strong future and we are aiming high," said Harrell. "By October we should be ranked and hopefully receive an NCAA bid." The Varsity soccer team will have a tough schedule this season with games against UNCChapel Hill, Clemson and Wake Forest and "will test the team often," Rex says. "I think that we will continue to be strong in the backfield and will make other clubs work hard," Rex added. "We need to take advantageof every opportunity, and thatcomes by playing our brand of aggressive, attacking soccer. "If we can do that [play aggressive, attack­ ing soccer] then our goais of winning the Southern Conferencechampionship, winning the Southern Conference Tournament and being ranked in the Top 10 in the South can be fulfilled." BY CHRIS WINKLER REPORTER The Lady App volleyball squad overcame youth and inexperience Wednesday to defeat UNC-Asheville in four tight games: 15-10, 17-19, 15-10,15-12. "I was most impressed with the composure the ladies kept in our season opener on the road that got the job done," Head Coach Markland said. The team was lead by seniors Deanna Keen and Michelle Wright. Both had outstanding games. Keen lead the team with a .390 hitting percentage while Wright had the opposing team dodging her powerful .362 percent. Markland commented on the reliable perfor­ mances by setters Kathy Granack and Kim Deanna Keen Manis. Granack started the first two games while Maniscamein for theclosingtwogames. The floor defense by the Lady Apps kept the ball alive which sparked the offense. "We still need to improve our blocking, but overall I was pleased with the leadership of the seniors and the consistant play of every team­ mate," said Markland, now in his second campaign as head coach. The Lady Apps take their winning ways to the Virginia Tech Tounnament this weekend in Blacksburg, Va. Markland hopes that the consistent play of Amy Kolomechuk, Heidi McElhaney.and the all around game of Sheri Leverette will con­ tinue. The starting setting position will be key as will the leadership of Keen and Wright as the season gets into full swing. Michelle Wright PHIL MCCARN - ACTING EDITOR Sports briefs BY PHIL MCCARN ACTING EDITOR APPS LOOK TO LIBERTY The Mountaineer grid squad will look to avenge a 22-10 loss to North Carolina A&T Saturday when they host the Flames of Liberty University.

A great deal of her time has been spent plan­ ning menus and making arrangements for socials and visitors. Mrs. Borkowski, who is the wife of Appa­ lachian State University's new chancellor, Francis T. Borkowski, has many talents and interests. She is also a definite asset to both Appalachian and the Boone community. The former Kay Kaiser grew up in Hamilton, Indiana, a small town that allows her to feel like she's at home in Boone. She glows when speaking of her love for the flute and herchildren,obviously takinggreat pride in each. As a music major at Indiana University, Mrs. Borkowski was extremely focused on her course of study. "For a wind player, the most sought after experience was playing in the University Orchestra," said Mrs. Borkowski. "We would switch from the Symphony Orchestra to the Opera Or­ chestra. The mostenjoyable time forme was playing in the pit for the operas. I had little time for extra things." The most influential people in Mrs. Borkowski's life have been her mother, and her flute professor, James Pellerite. Mrs. Borkowski met her husband at Indi­ ana University, where both were enrolled in a woodwind quintet. She smiles when she tells of his position as principal clarinetist and the music they played together. After graduation, the Borkowskis married and moved to Jacksonville, Florida, where Mrs. Borkowski became the principal flutist with theJacksonville Symphony. Thecouple moved to Morgantown, West Virginia, in 1961, and Mrs. Borkowski had the opportu­ nity to perform in a West Virginia University faculty woodwind quintet and a Baroque en­ semble. After earning a master's in music theory at Ohio State University, Mrs. Borkowski con­ tinued to have many opportunities to play and perform. Borkowski. "I know it is old fashioned to say that the woman should be the home-maker, and at the same lime, I feel that women and their abilities should be allowed to benefit the human condi­ tion." Mrs. Borkowski said she has been very happy in her life and has received great plea­ sure from her three children and her career. Still, Mrs. Borkowski said that at times she wonders how things would have turned out had she not gotten married so soon after gradu­ ation. "I like to think I would have gone to New York and attempted an Orchestral flute play­ ing career. At the same time, 1 know it may have been too competitive, or not the right choice for me." Mrs. Borkowski said she believes things turned out the way they were meant to be. When asked if she would like to make any changes in her life today, Mrs. Borkowski smiled, "Sometimes, 1 think that I might say I would like to have more time to practice, but deep inside I really enjoy having a lot of facets and that has made a very interesting life. It is hectic at times, but then the difficult times pass and you end up having had many expe­ riences." Mrs. Borkowski believes in making the most of every opportunity you have. That is why her advice to Appalachian students is to get involved. "I hope to see students at all the extra­ curricular events on campus, because that will indicate that they are taking advantage of all that Appalachian has to offer, especially lec­ tures and events in the arts," said Mrs. Borkowski. "I am going to want to work with Photo by Amy Beach Mrs. Borkowski the homeless in Boone, maybe Hospitality Mrs. Borkowski said that life has given her "Women bear children and need to nurture House."

When she and her husband lived in West Virginia, Mrs. Borkowski taught the flute part-time in her home. Mrs. Borkowski said that while she was physically present when the children were home after school, she was not mentally there for them. Mrs. Borkowski regrets that she was not actually there tofocus her attention on her children. Awareness Walk COMPILED BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR Every September, members of the univer­ sity and county community come together to raise awareness of violence committed against people regardless of age, gender or color. The fifth annual Walk for Awareness will be held Sept. 7. The walk begins at the administration building, goes through down­ town Boone and ends up in front of the Lois Harrill Senior Center. The Walk for Awareness was established following thedeath of Jeni Gray, a staff writer for the university. Gray was abducted and murdered on Sept. 24, 1989. Gray earned a degree from Appalachian in 1984 and worked for The Mount Airy News and the Watauga Democrat before joining Appalachian's news bureau staff in 1987. Not long after Gray disappeared, an Appa­ lachian student, Leigh Cooper, was abducted and raped by the same man who was later convicted of murdering Jeni Gray. Cooper will speak at theend of this year's silent walk. Although people became more concerned about personal safety and were more careful, their concern lasted only a short time. The silent walk serves as a reminderof the need for personal safety. Since being established as a memorial to Gray, the walk has evolved to include an awareness of violence against women, men, children and the elderly. 'This is not an event to express anger," said Barbara Daye, associate vice chancellor for student development. "The walk honors the memory of Jeni Gray. The walk also rekindles people's awareness for personal safety and is a statement against violence against all people." The walk is different from other events against violence in that it is conducted in silence except for a single beat that echoes throughout the walk. The beat represents the fact that a women is assaulted every four minutes across the U.S. Violence occurs to men, women, children and the elderly every 15 seconds. The walk will begin on the steps of the administration building and participants will walk through campus to College Street, turn left on King Street and proceed to the Lois Harrill Senior Center parking lot at the comer of King and Water Streets. A program of remarks and song concludes the walk. Participants are encouraged to wear light colored clothing and carry a flashlight.

Why does this ground water resurface? Because it cannot penetrate the impermeable horizontal layers of rock just below the surface. Large and beautiful icicles form every winter for hundreds of yards along these small cliff bands. If septic fields are put in just up-slope, these icicles will one day contain a much higher chloroform bacteria count, and probably even raw sewage. I invite you to experience the brief walk, ride or drive up to Howard Knob. Look into the woods past the County Park's boundary, especially to the north. You will notice a thick hardwood forest with a forest floor featuring large dark rocks completely surrounded by wildflowers such as Trilliums, Wake Robins, Mountain Laurel, Jack in the Pulpit, False Solomon Seal, Dog Tooth Violet, Indian restaurants, hotels.

He told me that the lands belong to Him, that no people own the land: that I was not to forget to tell this to the white people when I meet them in council." —Kanekuk Kickapoo prophet SGA Appalachian's Student Government Association rep­ resents the interests, concerns and views of the student body—a difficult task in light of the diversity among Appalachian's students. SGA also acts as a liaison between the students and the University's administra­ tion, bridging a gap that is too often neglected. As the 93-94 academic year begins, the staff of The Appala­ chian considers it necessary to extend a challenge to the new SGA administration. Now that the campaign is over, SGA's responsibility to the student body has just begun. To the new administration, The Appalachian offers this advice: Never lose sight of your platform objec­ tives, always make heard the voices of the students and prove to us all that you are, in fact, "students working for students." President J.D. Adams and Vice-President Edith Featherston presented an ambitious platform to the student body last spring. By electing Adams and Featherston with 62.9 percent of the votes, students indicated that of the three tickets, Adams and Featherston could best represent the interests of the student community. Although some of their platform objectives will require hard work and dedication, stu­ dents put their faith in a new administration. Of the 32 platform objectives, there are 10 goals that The Appalachian considers worthy of priority concen­ tration. • Attend organization and club meetings to receive student input concerning University events and poli­ cies — Adams and Featherston visited various clubs and organizations during their campaign, promising to discuss issues with groups, take their concerns before the Senate, and report back. Clubs and organizations often feel isolated from SGA's activities and deci­ sions. By actively seeking involvement from campus groups, SGA can better represent the diverseconcerns of students. • Establish an Environmental Concerns committee to introduce and implement an Environmental Plan for the university — Appalachian has proven itself to be an environmentally concerned institution. By imple­ menting an organized plan, the university can take greater strides toward conservation now and in the future. • Establish a committee on Minority Affairs within Student Government to promote unity — minority concerns are often ignored on college campuses, de­ spite the diversity within the student body. Appala­ chian needs a committee that possesses the courage to address minority concerns candidly. • Publication of a semesterly SGA Newsletter to be sent to all students in order to keep the Student Body informed of SGA's current projects — a direct line of communication between students and their represen­ tatives does not currently exist. The opportunity to reach students at an individual level must not be ignored. • Increase non-SGA Student participation on Univer­ sity Committee — During the Adams/Featherston campaign, they stressed the need for more student influence in university decisions. By encouraging input from students outside SGA, the university can better understand the needs of a diverse student body. • Confidential and Voluntary AIDS testing available through Health Services free of charge — the plan Adams/Featherston proposes will bring the Watauga County Health Department to campus, allowing stu­ dents easily accessible and confidential testing. • Increase Security foot patrols on campus—students who walk across campus in the dark must fear for their safety. Foot patrols in secluded areas, where visibility from a vehicle is limited, are necessary for student safety and peace of mind. • Allow for tuition to be paid on an installment plan — with recent tuition and fee increases students are finding it difficult to pay theirentire bills in lumpsums. An installment plan will help alleviate the burden of college COSL • Form an ad-hoc (temporary) committee to research the advising program and make necessary changes — students rely on their advisors for guidance and direc­ tion. Are these advisors qualified to give career advice? Are these advisors accessible to students throughout the year, as well as during registration? • Request a stronger emphasis on multi-culturalism to be placed on Appalachian's curriculum — with the recent appointment of Chancellor Borkowski, who made similar improvements at the University of South Florida; curriculum rich in multi-culturalism should not be difficult to achieve at our university. The Appalachian commends Adamsand Featherston for the courage and insight to address issues that will require a great deal of planning, dedication, and hard work. The campaign is over, a difficult journey lies ahead. And The Appalachian will follow SGA's activities with our support, our faith and our everwatchful eyes.

Ehasz-Sanz assists COB students KRISTINE FORREST SISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR Maribeth Ehasz-Sanz plays an integral Appalachian's College of Business. Director of Academic Undergraduate ing, she often makes a significant difin students' college careers. -Sanz sees her job as providing ser­ vices to students. She is available to help students plan their schedules and often finds herself counseling and guiding them. "We want students to come in here and feel comforted and supported," she said. "If stu­ dents are stuck or contused, they can come here for help." As well as advising students, Ehasz-Sanz also works with special programs in the Col- lege of Business. She is involved with Fresh­ man Orientation and meets with parents. She assists the Dean with projects that include the Honors Program and coordinating a scholar­ ship program. Ehasz-Sanz has been with Appalachian for six years although she has worked in aca­ demic advising for twenty years. Ehasz-Sanz believes that the most chal­ lenging aspect of her job is balancing the many roles that she has. She finds it difficult to both encourage people and tel1 people when they simply can't do something. "We help students find other options. Sometimes we help them pick up the pieces." Business majors are not required to meet with an advisor before registering for classes. However, if these students need help planning their schedules, Ehasz-Sanz is there with in­ formation and advice. Getting letters from former students on their own business stationary makes EhaszSanz proud of the job she does. "I enjoy seeing my students finish," she said. 'They gel through the lough times and it's wonderful to see them walk across the stage at graduation." Ehasz-Sanz feels it is important to encour­ age students to focus on academics while at Appalachian. "Life asks a lot of you," she said. "Stu­ dents sometimes don't realize that they'll get beuer grades if they put more time into school." Ehasz-Sanz said that the Business Depart­ ment has high expectations of its students. "When you're a student, that's your job," she said. Students who enroll in the traditional busi­ ness programs often don't realize that the programs can branch into more specialized fields. Ehasz-Sanz said that the manage­ ment, accounting, finance, marketing, and econom ics program s are often the ones which often lead students into more specialized studies. Ehasz-Sanz considers herself to be a "cre­ ative thinker." She is constantly coming up with new ways to improve the Business De­ partment Ehasz-Sanz's husband is the director of the counseling center here at Appalachian. Both enjoy the beauty of the mountains. "We have a common energy that goes to the students," she said. "It's wonderful that we've both been able to develop careers here. We can really appreciate where we are; we've almost become different people since we moved here. We're no longeras comfortable in big cities as we used to be." atherine Wheel's IChrome Injuries' BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR t Jvance word on the latest Catherine Wheel i Chrome, was that they had been catch ing ij1 a variety of m usical flavors of the month the "g" word: grunge), to overhaul the miliar-as-it-will-ever-get shoegazer ck. So why am I having trouble remem_ing a single song off the new, post-overChromc? i s all something we've heard before, y British pop, swirling like dreamy mist ire monochromatic curtains of guitar fccd, accented by shaggy lads who whisper inered and poetic verbiage into micros.

It was nice, short, catchy and it did the job. The end. Jul then there's Chrome. Dig that monolabic title. It has a nice Hipgnosis sleeve mi-naked bodies cavorting in dark blue ler). NEW! from the people who thought the "man in suit shaking hands with aner man in suit, who just happens to be on fire" Concept for Pink Floyd. I put it on the stereo to write this review (I couldn't remem­ ber what any of it sounded like), and it imme­ diately becameapparent that these songs arcn' t really "songs." They're more like four-minute vamps with poems being read, oops, I mean "emoted" over the music. They are simple guitar riffs (two, three, or four chords, maybe the odd key change thrown in for variety's sake) repeated for three or four minutes. Track two, I Confess, shifts into light dirge territory, powcrchords shuddering underneath a confession of something indecipherable. The next selection, Crank, gives us a more developed melody— a worthy follow-up to I Want To Touch You. It would make a great single; I actually made it to die end of the track. Tracks four, six, and seven are fairly inter­ changeable, opening with single guitar notes repeated, then crashing into a post-Zeppelin (actually, post-Kashmir) big beat. Number eight, The Nude, takes us back down into overhauled dirge mode, similar to I Confess, but with a more coherent sense of melody. A step forward. Later there is a song called Fripp. Couldn't be Robert, who created a vastly different variety of 20th century schzoid music with King Crimson, who I am not reminded of once. I did come up with a possible alternate song title though: Waters/Wright/Mason/ Gilmour. The intro had a strong Atom Heart Motherkinda thing going there fora minuteor so. For this offering, a smidgeon of lyric is thoughtfully provided: "There's a shark shaped fin/In the water of my dreams/An alligator screams/From the depths there." I have some questions: 1. Is that a shark's fin? 2. Or is it a fin that is shaped like a shark? 3. Do alligators scream? I'mnotexactlysureon this one, but it just doesn'tsound right, either. I really don't want to be obnoxious. But I've heard this kind of thing before, and after a while you really do want it to go away. You turn on MTV, you turn on the radio, and something hits you with nothing, absolutely nothing, but an overpowering sense of deja vu. And that is truly sad. Grade: ** (out of 5) Dave rules late night TV BY STEVEN MACKAY REPORTER He's been in the news for months, making headlines in major newspapers, endless tele­ vision coverage, appearances in magazines, and much more. Who is it, you ask? Clinton? Gore? Yeltsin? Hillary? None of the above. It's our old friend, David Lcttcrman. How could it be possible that this one soli­ tary talk show host should warrant this end­ less barrage of media coverage? You bet Jurassic. After a long and controversial fight with NBC—the network that literally launched his career—Letterman jumped ship, moving to CBS, a competing network. The reasons for his departure: not enough money, not enough creative control (power, in plain English), faulty GE appliances, and, of course, the cov­ eted 11:30 time slot. Last Monday night, August 30, The Late Show With David Letterman premiered and proceeded to blow away the competition with something that has been missing from late night TV for quite a while: entertainment. The previous occupant of the studio, Ed Sullivan (in the form of spliced footage from his television show) introduced Letterman. The studio audience responded with a lengthy standing ovation. Letterman then jumped intoa caustic mono­ logue loaded with NBC jokes, jabs at the hype over his new show, and much more. NBC's own Tom Brokaw and actor Paul Newman helped him to get the show off to a rousing start A manic Bill Murray was Letterman's first guest. Murray was also the first guest on the old Late Night show. Murray helped Letterman to decipher a number of mutual ego and publicity problems, and then made an earthy and unpretentious contribution to the decor of the set. Billy Joel was the musical guest, offering and energetic perfor­ mance of his single, No Man's Land. The Late Show is extremely funny, and Letterman looks like a million bucks (actu­ ally, more like 14 million bucks—his yearly salary). He is clearly in the prime of his life. A lot of extra work went into the first show to try and hook a strong audience, so this first episode was a slightly bloated version of things yet to come. Still, if future shows turn out to be even half as good as this first one, Letterman will truly be the king of late night. Grade: •*** reshman Seminar offers diverse goals KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR Vcry few classes at Appalachian offer the x>rtunity for students to learn both inside !°utsideof the classroom. Freshman Semi• however, encourages students to go out become involved with the campus. Freshman Seminar course helps stu­ bs make the transition from high school to cge by dealing with the questions and ^ems students may have, he course builds confidence in academic 'ly and competency," said Dr. Rennie freshman seminardirector and history 'lessor. "We teach students that ideas are s and they can develop a whole kit if they [Hge their style of learning." reshman Seminar tends to be more of a llc'Pation class than a lecture class. Teach­ ing the concepts of teamwork and community are among the top goals of the class. The Group Interaction Course is one of the most popular activities the students do in Freshman Seminar. They are able to scale rope ladders and overcome obstacles. These activities are mostly physical challenges that students can relate to in the classroom. The students also discover Appalachian through visiting other students, participating in computer labs, and learning about the Ap­ palachian Cultural Center. "It fills in the gaps," Brantz said. "We ex­ pect someone from high school to have cer­ tain skills. This is the only place that fresh­ men, in an organized way, are introduced to computing, word processing. We need to help students develop skills they need in college." The course also helps students with career and academic planning, time management, and communication skills. Freshman Seminar, which was first offered in 1986, now involves about one-third of the freshman class. Many students arc on a wait­ ing list to enroll in the class. Freshman Seminar enrolls a large variety of students who want to take the class for differ­ ent reasons. 'The class is a good cross-section of our campus," said Brantz. "We have different minorities,genders,and everyone from Chan­ cel lor scholars to those who are afraid they're not going to make it." Faculty who teach the seminar benefit as well. "For someone at my stage in a career the possibility is that you get worn out, you can get bored and you don't do anything," Brantz said. "I found myself doing more and being more interested in all my teaching as a result of learning new things here. It reminded me of how much fun it is to teach." Preliminary studies have shown that Fresh­ man Seminar benefits students who take it. Those who completed the course were more likely to make the Dean's List and less likely to be on academic probation. o Snorkin 1jrb°»o In forch ot lh» grown to «ock di«oppoofonc». DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR KRISTINE FORREST - ASSISTANT Meaningless and subjective top six BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR Running the risk of turning this into a trueconfessions kinda space (Depraved house­ wives tell all! Film at 11! Therapy junkies soon on Donahue! Blah, blah, blah!), I'll make a confession. I had no idea of what to put in this space for this issue of the paper— the swirling vacuum in my head was taunting me, sending out false alarms (@#SR%! AN IDEA!), then spiriting them away to some fifth-dimension happy hunting ground, never to return (you get them back after you die, right along with all the socks consumed by the starving dryers of the world). So, taking a cue from a number of profes­ sional music critics (Griel Marcus, Lester Bangs, Greg Tate, Robert Christgau), and an infinite and undcfinable plethora of rank amateurs (i.e., the author of this piece of improvised blather), I figured I would buy some time and take the easy way out. That's right folks—a list. Why music? Why not. Thus, Dave's Completely Ephemeral and Subjective Listof Cool Stuff that I've stumbled across at some point in the recent (or not so recent) past, a simple survey of musical, and some non-musical discoveries that should be interesting to read about. Their appearance in this space is in no particular order. So here goes: •Miles Davis—Get Up With It (1974, Co­ lumbia Records, out of print). Arguably, this is the high-water mark when assessing Miles Davis' complex and inacessible early 70's work. GUWI includes six unrelcascd tunes of varying natures, recorded from 1970 to 1974. Among these six, shorter composi­ tions are experiments with intercontinental polyrhythms (Mtume), blissedout excursioas into major-league dissonance (RatedX ), and an alluring blues variatioa The two longer cuts-both over thirty nirHUtvs size all of the above, plus more, into sweep­ ing rhythmic suites. •Funkadclic-Maggot Brain (1971, Westbound Records). Where Parliament was George Clinton's funkfest, Funkadelic was his cathartic psychodrama. The stuff here is dark, heavy,loaded withcreeping atmosphere and superdistoried guitar onslaughts. The shorter tunes are rhythmically skeletal, con­ tinually shrouded in guitar noise. The two long cuts (the title track and Wars of Arma­ geddon ) are tours of Clinton's surreal paral­ lel universe, all satire included and all sar­ casm intended. •Can—Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi, Future Days (1971, 1972,1973 Spoon Records im­ ports). Like Miles Davis, these guys were into the synthesis of funk, rhythm and experi­ mental compositional techniques—two mem­ bers of Can were former students of com­ poser Karlheinz Stockhausen. These re­ leases—their best—offer the added bonus of Kenji 'Damo' Suzuki's manic and otherworldly vocals, improvised over a shift­ ing and continuous backdrop of rhythm and atmosphere. •Bonnie and Clyde (Warner Films, 1967). For two generations of film fans, this movie, starring Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty, was—respectively—the end of the world as we know it, or the dawn of reality as we have come to know it. If you've seen it, you already have an opinion of your own, and if you haven't, you are destined to be stunned into silence. Has inspired numerous 'inter­ pretations,' Thelma and Louise included. "Hi. I'm Clyde. This is Bonnie. We rob banks." They do indeed. •Escape(The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes; Driver's Seat by Sniff'n the Tears; Right Back Where We Started From by Maxine Nightingale; Pop Muzik by M (Robin Scott). Like B movies (Plan 9, Food of the Gods, N ighl of the Lepus ), these four memo­ rable slicesof late-70's ugh! arcso bad thy're classics. Of a sort. Some enterprising young band sould cover one (all?) of the above, and blow some minds. •Parliament-Tear The Roof Off (1993, Casablanca/Polygram). This is funk the way it ought to be—Primus and the Chili Peppers don't even register on the same scale. Rather than show off how fast the bass player can get, Parliament preferred complex investiga­ tions of soul, carried by all of the many members of this band. This new compilation offers two discs filled with extended mixes and live stuff, and includesa thorough history of the group (written by Grag Tate) in the booklet. Surreal, and funky enough to send you into cardiac arrest—this reveals the vast majority of today'sLollapaSouthcmCali-bred funk tc be the cocky ego wank that it is. So. It has come to this. A simple Dave's Top Six, offered up as a flimsy attempt at disguising gratuitous levels of mental bank­ ruptcy. ,Film at 11. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY T en Reasons to Visit the Caribbean Z ^ a T ar ^ e r C fz I • frequent Lunch Card 2.

Anyone interested in obtaining further in­ formation may contact Taylor at 262-8789. Women's Volleyball Robin Duke, as well as five key players, will return to the women's club volleyball team this season. Duke will be in her second year at the realm of the program. Key returning players will include Suzanne Brooks, Kristie McConnell, Holley Ryerse, Carmen Arkansas, and Cheryl Jackson. The squad, whose main season is in the spring, is in the process of scheduling some sand tournaments for the fall. At this time, there are approximately 20 people involved but the group is always look­ ing for new members. Anyone interested in becoming involved with the club should contact Arkansas at 2629766. Men's Volleyball The men's volleyball club has recently begun practicing and has approximately 25 members for the upcoming season. The squad has not yet formulated a sched­ ule but will look to compete in five tourna­ ments before the spring season when they are more competitive. Returning players for the squad this fall will include Jonathan Merrill, Matt Biggers, Brad Hargrove, and Darin Gregory. According toclub president, Hargrove,"we should have a real successful year."

Fencing Appalachian State's fencing club, under the direction of president Kevin Taylor, re­ cently held its organizational meeting and is beginning to get things underway for the upcoming year. According to Taylor, the group has around 80 members at this time. However, there is no limit on the number of people thatcan become involved. "I strongly encourage all types of people to come out," Taylor said. "Everyone is wel­ come." The squad practices in Varsity Gym at 5 p.m. on Tuesdays and at 6 p.m.on Thursdays. Sanctioned by the United States Fencing Association, the squad operates totally on a team effort. "Although we do not compete as a team, when we play together there is a total team spirit," Taylor said. "We just like to get out there and have some fun." Both men and women compete with the fencing club as well as novices and profes­ Judo sionals. The judo club will open the season on Sept.

"It is going to be a learning process for everyone. It is some­ thing new and different and we are going to give it a try this season," Zuleba said. Zuleba explained that the men's lacrosse squad will be assisting in the development of the skill of the women this fall before the women begin to compete in the spring semester. "Many peopledown South have not heard of women's lacrosse, but I am from up North and it is really popular up there. It is one of the fastest growing sports and I encourage anyone to come out and try," Zuleba said. Interested individuals may contact Zuleba at 264-4929. Men's Lacrosse The men's lacrosse club began practice last week and at this time has not formulated a game schedule. According to club vice president, Tom Riley, the squad should have a good season.

PHIL MCCARN - ACTING EDITOR Apps fall to NC A&T BY PHIL MCCARN ACTING SPORTS EDITOR Every player on the Appalachian Stale defense wanted to see a lot of playing time on Saturday. They got more than they bargained for, and the Mountaineers suf­ fered a 22-10 loss to North Carolina A&T in the season opener. Appalachian's defense remained on the rain-soaked field at Aggie Stadium for 33 minutes and 58 seconds in a game that saw the Mountaineer offense mass only 79 yards on the ground. Meanwhile, the A&T backs sliced through the mud for 222 yards rushing and 15 first downs. "I'm real pleased," said North Carolina A&T Head Coach Bill Hayes. "We wanted a hot day, but we didn't get it. That shows that we can adjust. Our backs ran hard and Maceo Bolin, our quarterback, made good decisions." Bolin did make good decisions through­ out the game, many times choosing to give it to fullback James White. White carried the ball 21 limes for 105 yards. Appalachian's offense remained stagnant for most of the game, m uch to the surprise of ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore. "That is the poorest we've played since I've been here," said Moore. "I thought our offense was going to be able to move the ball, it was just a lack of mental discipline." Sophomore quarterback Scott Satterfield, playing in only his first collegiate game as a starter, had a frustrating first half. "Some of the things that Scott did were not a result of him," said Moore. "He didn't get a lot of help at times." Another Sophomore, Jason Yaudes, took over for Satterfield in the fourth quarter and hit on six of 15 passing attempts for 109 yards and a touchdown. "I thought that Yaudes was very effective in the fourth quarter," said Moore. The Aggiedefense was responsible for 15 of the 22 total points. North Carolina A&T's Dale Adairblocked a Will Burkett punt with 4:47 remaining in the first quarter, the ball rolled out of the end zone for an Aggie safety. In the second quarter, Curtis Burgins in­ tercepted a Satterfield pass and returned it to the Appalachian three yard-line. The of­ fense took over and scored from two-yards out for an 8-0 lead. The Aggiedefense was not finished, how­ ever, as outside-linebacker Mike Hamilton intercepted another Satterfield pass in the third quarter and raced 44 yards for a touch­ down. The Mountaineers will open its home season in Boone on Saturday at 1:30 in a non-conference contest with Liberty. Women's Soccer BY DUSTIN T. CHOATE STAFF WRITER Appalachian StateUniversity has just an­ nounced the addition of a women's inter­ collegiate soccer program which is sched­ uled to begin play the fall semester of 1994. The team will compete on the Division I level and already has twelve games sched­ uled to play. The athletic program at Appalachian State is excited about the opportunity to add an­ other women's inter-collegiate program to its eight existing women's sports. "Com­ mitment to Title 9 (which calls for fairness in the number and support of men's and women's sports)", Dreibelbis explained, "in women's athletics is testament to the fact that Appalachian State has won the Germann's Cup given to the best women's athletic program six of the last seven years." As of right now, a head coach has not been named. "Plans are," said Dreibelbis, "to advertise through the N.C.A.A. news and to find a coach who meets high qualifi­ cations and who represents the ideals of Appalachian State. Once a head coach is named it will be up to the coach to begin recruiting, much of which will be concen­ trated here in North Carolina. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 7 SEPTEMBER 1993, PAGE 10 KIM BASINGER - VAL KILMER LIQUID PLEASURE 20 guards. 30 tons of steel, A security system second to none.

BY DANE PERRY STAFF WRITER Construction on Justice residence hall scheduled to be complete by the beginning of this semester is still underway, leaving the 270 residents (figure supplied by Resi­ dence Life) with only eight indoor showers and two located outside in trailers. Many students in the building say the scarcity of showers is an inconvenience which can be minimized by a little planning. Ac­ cording to freshman Daniel Sherwell, "It's a lot of waiting around, but it's alright as long as you gel up early or shower the night before." Some students have commented about re­ questing reimbursement for the inconve­ nience, but according to sophomore William McCann the topic has only been mentioned in hall meetings. Dr. Ward Zimmerman, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, said the construction is "going slower than we would like," citing problems with finding acceptable tiling crews. Zimmerman said they now have tilers doing a good job, but are working in small crews. The problems with finding a tiling crew only added to the delay with asbestos re­ moval this summer that put the project three weeks behind schedule. Zimmerman added that he is appreciative of the attitudes of the Justice residents. "I'd like to thank the residents in Justice. Everytime I go there, I see an extremely positive attitude," said Zimmerman.

Red brick has been introduced to campus walkways as part of the overall landscaping for Appalachian, according to Vice Chan­ cellor for Business Affairs Ward Zimmerman. The bricks, which cost approximately $11,000, serve both an aesthetic and practi­ cal purpose,said Zimmerman. After the con­ crete was removed, Appalachian installed the conduit lines for the extensive fiber op­ tics network the university is installing. In some areas, the red brick is now used to identify the path of the network,allowing for easier access to the cables as needed for maintenance. As the sidewalks on campus were repaired, bricks were added to widen the walks for bicyclists and service vehicles. There will no longer be a need for vehicles to drive on the grass. Another reason the semi-permeable bricks were chosen, according to Zimmerman, is because they will be much easier to maintain in the snow and ice season. The bricks are stronger than the previously used concrete and will allow for the use of snow trucks. Zimmerman said using snow trucks will be more cost efficient than hiring workers to shovel the snow. Senior Rick Townsend, a judicial board member, said, 'The bricks are an improve­ ment They look better than the concrete did." Many students are concerned that Appala­ chian may lose its natural appeal if bricks are used in landscaping as they areat schools such as North Carolina State University. When asked about this, Zimmerman said, "We will continue to use the bricks in our design, but I don't think we will ever get into the brick­ yard concept." Diane White swivels around in her big leather chair, singing into the phone. "Let's see if we can do that in B fiat," she says.anddemonstrates exactly what she means into the receiver. The new assistant director of African American Student Development and artist-in-residence is busy contributing her talent to the gospel choir. The gospel choir is not the only organiza­ tion that will benefit from having White as a faculty member. She will also work on en­ hancing African American student life on campus and will head the peer mentor pro­ gram. "I consider it a blessing to be able to help people," White said. "I think that the more we do for others, the more we grow." White comes from an extensive educa­ tional and musical background. She grew up in Washington, D.C., the daughter of a pastor. She began singing in choirs at an early age and was playing the piano and directing choirs at age 10. By the time she was 11 she was arranging music. Music has been a major part of White's life even as she went through school. She spent her undergraduate years at Washington Uni­ versity, went on to study in France, and later received her master's degree from the Univer­ sity of California at Santa Barbara. She is currently finishing her doctorate. White directed choirs throughout her col­ lege education. She has also performed in countries such as France and Spain. "I've directed both small choirs and choirs that are made up of hundreds of voices," she said. "It's something that I feel comfortable with and have done extensively." White also has administrative experience. At Washington University,she was the assis­ tant to the director of African and African American studies. She has also worked with black Christian fellowships. White plans to become involved with the Black Christian Fellowship at Appalachian, as well. "The black religious experience has historically been different becauseof what we grew out of. It's very unique," she said. "I want students to express their religion in the way they're used to." Although her term recently began, White says she is already "impressed with the level of leadership and excellence" she has found with students in African American DevelopmenL She has found students to be intelligent, creative, and motivated. White has both long-term and short-term goals for the African American Development program. Although she plans to wait and see what the needs of the program are, she already has several ideas. "I'd like to increase the amount of diver­ sity amongst guest speakers, not only African Americans, but other people of color," she said. White would also like to see more African American faculty members as well as a larger percentage of students of color. Appalachian' s music department could also use moreethnic diversity, according to White. So far, she has not met any opposition to her ideas. "1 think other faculty members see the need for these changes," she said. "I hope more doors are starting to open and we're able to do some of these programs." White's schedule has been frantic since the moment she arrived, yet she has had time to form an opinion about the students and faculty at Appalachian. "I have been overwhelmed by hospital­ ity," she said. "Everyone has told me about the hospitality of the South and it has defi­ nitely met those standards." AppalCART adds two routes BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER Thursday night, the AppalCART let loose two new routesto prowl the streets of Boone. The Tom Cat and the Night Owl both began this weekend. They are two bus routes that will run until the wee hours of the night. Suggested by the 1992-93 Student Govern­ ment Association with the goal of increas­ ing student safety, the routes will run from 10:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., Thursday through Saturday. The Night Owl will run primarily through downtown Boone with stops at several apart­ ment complexes along highway 421 and the 105 extension. The Tom Cat runs the entire length of highway 321, making scheduled pickups at different restaurants and apartments along the way. Both routes have stops at Hoey Residence Hall, with the Night Owl also stopping at Trivette Hall. Last year's SG A pushed for the program to provide a safe means of travel for students who are out late, and find themselves with­ out a ride home. J.D. Adams, SGA presi­ dent, hopes students will support the routes. "The students stressed to student govern­ ment last year that they wanted the AppalCART hours extended. Now that this has been passed, I hope that students will take advantage of it. It would be useless for us to work for something like this if students don't use it after we work to get it for them." Tom Gates, an operator for the AppalCART, reported that 54 people rode the first weekend. While a low number of riders for late running routes is expected, it is still too early to predict how many riders will be the norm. The Tom Catand the Night Owl are scheduled to run through the Fall and Spring semesters. �HE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 31 AUGUST 1993, PAGE 2 •then came the day Chef Stephen realized he had sold a few too many chicken wings! 150 Wing Night Every Monday after 3:00 p.m.!

The Kes Business Affairs approved iF dosing the Welborn Market, igning the Food Court and ining vending machine prices. Welborn Market was closed L not enough students have been the east campus Market since the Trivette Market opened in the 1992. Vending machine prices, with the exception of the juice machine prices, have increased by $.05. Several ideas for food services were rejected by business affairs: remov­ ing the meal card option from the Trivette Market, increasing prices throughout food services and taking the meal card option off pizza deliv­ ery. According to Zimmerman, a sur­ vey was conducted last year to deter­ mine student opinion about food ser­ vices. The results showed that stu­ dents wanted more variety and thought the Food Court was boring. To ad­ dress this concern, food services added a jukebox, a hoagie shop and new signs to liven up the Food Court Zimmerman also pointed out that food services' competition is from fast food restaurants in town. He said that unlike the university, the restau­ rants are a for-profit only business. "They don't keep their hours open any longer than they need. We do," Zimmerman said. He pointed out that places like the Food Court and Caf­ eteria are also used for socializing and studying. In the past few years, students have been spending more of their meal card money on vending and pizza than on sit-down meals. The food service areas Zimmerman described as being "high margin"areas were the vending machines and pizza delivery. The Food Court, Trivette Hall and the Market were described as break-even areas, while the gold room followed by the cafeteria are loosing money.

KrruP-e pcans> Watauga College defended and praised To the editor, With all the changes happening at Appala­ chian, it's sometimes difficult to understand the university's long-range plans and priorities. Recently, the state legislature responded to voices of students and faculty who were opposed to the construction of the proposed Student Ac­ tivity Center. The construction of this building was effectively postponed by individuals in the university community. Initially, in 1989 and 1990, environmental concerns were the focus of most of the individuals who opposed the SAC. The environmentalist perspective on this issue was well-debated. During 1991 and 1992, the campaign to block the SAC construction turned to the issue of Appalachian's prionties. Individuals opposed to the SAC construction went to great lengths to make their voices heard. A number of students toured the state on bicycles campaigning to heighten awareness about the university's priori­ ties and real needs. Immediately after this tour, Appalachian students and faculty rallied at the capitol building, then lobbied legislators for the remainder of the day. The following day, the funding for the SAC was removed from a pend­ ing bond issue. The same issues that concerned that zealous group last year still face us today. Is it prudent for the university to spend millions of dollars on a sports center whenmany of our existing facilities are so inadequate? Could this money not be better spent elsewhere—more and better resources in the library, perhaps? Currently, Appalachian is seeking to prove a commitment to academics by emphasizing the need for two new facilities: an academic support building and a math and science building. This commitment to academics is called into serious question by the fact that even as our library remains in need of books, journals and equipment, Appalachian's administration is try­ ing to acquire $300,000 to finance a redesigning of the SAC. The university is requesting this money from the N.C. legislature's fund for ad­ vanced planning. The University System's Board of Governors will hold ahearing September 10in Chapel Hill to determine the distribution of state funds among the sixteen universities in the UNC system. This "new and improved"SAC will no doubt be offered up to the community as a valuable and necessary academic resource. Instead of being a sports and special events facility like the old SAC, the new SAC will be touted as an essential revamping of Appalachian's leisure studies pro­ gram. We will be repeatedly told that graduation and convocation ceremonies will be impossible without theSAC, though in light of recent convo­ cations, it's highly unlikely that anything the size of the SAC could ever be required to house them. Is Appalachian's need for a new Student Activity Center greater than our need for an adequate library? Do we need the SAC at all? These are questions the university needs to ex­ amine and answer carefully, before asking for funds to redesign a building that, in the opinions of many students and faculty, is unnecessary? Perhaps Appalachian could better use $300,000 in a study to determine the best way to improve our library. I'm in the Watauga Ereshm&nPrpgram. Close your eyes for a minute and try to picturA what I look like. Chances are, you already have a standard in your mind of what someone who lives in East dorm (as most Wataugans do) and is in the Program looks like. I'm going to let you in on a surprise. I don't always wear long, gauzy skirts or specifically try to look any different than anyone else. Marijuana is not my vice of choice. My hair isn't fluorescent blue, nor is it shaved in any way. I don't listen toany music that one couldn't buy in a major record store. There are no tattoos on my body. I am exclusively heterosexual. If you are like most people at Appalachian you have no clue as to what the Watauga Program is all about. 1 know this because of all the absurd questions I've been asked about it Also, the looks people give me when they find out I'm in the program tell me that they are surprised someone "like me" could be in it Watauga is a full-fledged college at Appalachian. It isn't a program for people who are learning disabled and can't handle "normal" college. It's not just for liberal "pot-smoking hippie freaks," as one young man told me last fall when I inquired about the Program. It just so happens that the people who are open-minded enough to want to participate in such a unique program tend to be a bit different than the rest of the students here. What makes Watauga unique? The entire perspective by which the program was created and still runs today makes it special. Watauga students are invited into the program. The director of our college, Dr. Bud Gerber, and his staff specifically choose a diverse group of students for the program based on academics and other activities. Weall live on thesecond and third floorsof East Dorm. This is really an integral part of the Program as it allows us to bond together and experience deep friendships more conveniently than the conventional dormitory system. Most of our professor's offices are also located in East Wataugans take special classes not offered to other freshman students. There are two basic academic options for Wataugans. We can either take ten hours of Watauga classes or seven. This allows students in the marching band or in other special programs to be involved although they have less academic time available. During the first semester, those of us taking the ten hour Watauga course load take special classes called Tools for Civilization and American Stories. We also choose from a diverse group of classescalled AreaCourses that are like high school elective courses. Some of this semester's choices were the Poetry Writing Workshop, Introduction to Feminist Studies and Hollywood Film and Society. Watauga students also take other courses outside of the Program, for we must meet the course load require­ ment to be full-time students like everyone else. Different is a word I'd use to describe Watauga stu­ dents as far as social and personality aspects go. Unlike some other groups of freshmen, Watauga stu­ dents tend to be liberal both politically and socially. We tend to be concerned with environmental and human rights issues. The level of creative talent surges in our students. On my hall alone, I've met an artist, a fellow writer, a dancer, several musicians, an actress and many other talented women. Somehow, all of us seem to be on the same wave- COMMENTARY EDITOR- DAVID HUGHES ASSISTANT EDITOR- JOSEPH RAYLE length. We all want to get as much out of our freshman year as possible. The majority of us care a lot about our studies. It is extremely apparent that we need a change during our freshman year, a break from more traditional schools of thought than those found in the mainstream freshman classes. I feel a great sense of family building here. I see people in the Program around campus and even if we haven't really met, we always seem to say hello. The women who live on my hall are some of the nicest, brightest, most talented people I've ever met. I can honestly say that I am both proud of and ex­ tremely grateful for my involvement in the Watauga Freshman Program. I just wish that people would wake up and realize that different doesn't always mean bad. In Watauga's case it means better.

There is another, per­ haps more applicable comparison—with clas­ sic Carolina pop groups such as the dB's and Let's Active—I was occasionally reminded of both while listening to Silverbeet. Which brings us to the real topic on hand—Silverbeet. Courage kicks things dening if you insist on dragging out some grand concept to try and explain each and every composition here. About halfway into Courage, I went out for option two: quit thinking and listen. Courage gives way toSighting the Sound, a vague (i.e., explained by a quick scan over the lyric sheet) pun and manifesto. Anyway, by the end of the track, I knew that Robert Scott, in addition to participating in a soonto-be internationally famous (the word 'pop' is turning up way too often here) also enjoys sleep, romance, reading the newspaper in the morning, and being a human being like all the rest of us. He doesn't like airplanes, which in view of what he does like, is pretty much selfexplanatory. Silverbeet never veers from the seduc­ tive kaleidoscope jangle outlined in these first two songs. Many of the tracks feature alluring, fragile-sounding harmonies (Too Much,offering plenty of oooh-ahhh harmony over an insistent rock beat—great driving music), and the balance between well-crafted song writing and intelligent restraint keeps things on track here. Scott's vocals are a bit inflexible on a technical level, but the sound (and the lyrics) convey a tremendous range of human emotion and good-natured charm, so any technical jabs at the singing are, at this point, insignificant kvetching. Scott's lyrics do make it back towards familiar territory often enough for a noticeable and consistent level of environmental concern to become apparent —in particular,Green (more great p* p) addresses the sabotage and destruction of a Greenpeace ship in a New Zealand har­ bor. All gushing aside, Silverbeet is a won­ derful new discovery. The Bats have appro­ priated the tradition of pure popcraft for their own ends, and the world (well, at least me) is better for it To be ignored at your peril. alifornia students earn cash as sperm donors BY LEIGH MORGAN |COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE i)AVIS, Calif.—"Alex" never thought augmenting his college funding in i fruitful way. put after seeing a student on Donahue as putting himself through college by ng sperm, Alex said he remembers thinkspunded like an appealing idea. s $25 or $50 Alex receives for a cupful sperm atUniversity of California-Davis exactly going to solve a student's finanrorries, but it is a pretty simple way to i buck. ilex is one of the many students whose ipation as a sperm donor helps supply a for various ongoing research and fertilograms operating out of the UCD Medienter. lie university regularly buys sperm for ises of artificially inseminating women cannot otherwise conceive a child, acng to Dr. James Overstreet, a professor ; division of reproductive biology and cine.

That's another great thing about this im," 'Alex JU1U. "I »VUliU out that I have •> «VA said. X found good stuff. You know, good testosterone level." Candidates must first undergo an exhaus­ tive screening process which evaluates them genetically and traces three generations of their family genealogy before the program accepts them, Overstreet said. Overstreet added thata candidate's physi­ cal makeup can also be a factor in his eligibil­ ity. "We try to match the physical character­ istics of a donor with those of the infertile couple," he said. "We want a variety of physical characteristics in the donors." Theartificial insemination program main­ tains the anonymity of both the donor and the recipients. "In law, (the donor) is not the natural father of the child," Overstreet said. Alex, however, said he realized that the notion of even indirectly impregnating a woman was troubling to him. "It's not like I firmly thought, 'God, I don't want kids of mine running around out there.' But I was having enough of a problem with it that 1 didn't want to make a decision that I would regret later," he said. Instead, Alex opted to donate his sperm for medical research purposes, a task for which he collects $25. Dr. John Gould, assistant professor for the Department of Urology, said that a donor such as Alex can expect his sperm to be used in numerous clinical studies on male infertil­ ity. "These (research) samples are usually used as controls in a variety of experiments that look at sperm functions," he said. Gould is currently conducting research for a pharmaceutical company that creates a drug used to treat prostate enlargement in older men. "The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of this drug on male fertility— specifically young, healthy, male volunteers," Gould said. Participants are expected to take either the FDA—approved drug or a placebo for a 60-week period, during which they receive $1,000 for providing 21 sperm samples. "Participants get paid for doing it, but they have to meet the requirements," Gould said. Gould said he recognizes the emotional aspect of being involved in any of the sperm donor programs—especially an infertile re­ cipient of donated sperm. "People have difficulty coming in and talking about infertility," he said. "There is a sensitivity to this." For Alex, however, the act of handing someone a cupful of semen over to someone else is no big deal. "You've got to realize these people do it for a job," Alex said. "It's not like you're handing it over to just anyone. They wear gloves and everything." lard Target' not for the faint of heart BY STEVEN MACK AY REPORTER ylvester Stallone's trashy action flick, anger, gave the summer movies a manp start. Now, as summer comes to an Jan-Claude Van Damme's Hard Tarst might give this movie season an iive finale. an Damme is Chance Boudman, a mersailor, who rescues Nat, a beautiful I woman (played by Yancy Butler) from thugs. Nat is looking for someone to cr find her homeless father. Guess who •lunteer is? Chance and Nat discover that her father was murdered. He was the victim of a de­ mented hunting game, masterminded by a local slimeball, one Mr. Fouchon (Lance Henriksen). Fouchon hires homeless veter­ ans as the prey, and the hunters are rich men out to 'prove themselves.' Chance and Nat soon become the prey of Fouchon and his endless army of henchmen. Wilford Brimley co-stars as Chance's adventurous, action-hungry uncle. He helps Chance and Nat fight Fouchon and company. Hard Target is just as trashy and silly as Cliffhanger, but it is executed with an ex­ tremely artistic sense of style. The action scenes are as finely choreographed as a Hard Target was originally rated NCballet. Every fist-fight, gunshot and explo­ 17 (the kinder, gentler X) for its' extremely sion are well-edited and Filmed to perfection. The cinematography is very similar to that of graphic violence.

CHICKCN. : A"::" I DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR KRISTIN E FORREST - ASSISTANT Road-tripping: one of life's simple pleasures BY KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR As beautiful and diverse as our campus is, it can still seem constricting. As days be­ come moreand more routine, it's possible to go weeks without ever seeing the "outside world." Sometimes this campus can become the only world we know. I discovered the pleasure of taking road trips during my freshman year. Several friends and I packed our bags, found a map, and set off for Charleston, South Carolina for a weekend. It was the perfect opportunity to escape our schedulesand habits in Boone. That weekend in Charleston was one of the most memorable weekends I've had since I' ve been in college. We walked around the city thinking we were fearless explorers; we shopped, ate, and took ridiculous pic­ tures of each other posed in front of land­ marks. Taking a spur of the moment trip taught me that I really could be independent. For that one weekend I had no other obligations than to not get lost in a "foreign" city. There is nothing more liberating than driving down a highway with a car full of friends, bound for places you've only seen in pictures. Road trips aren't as exciting if you're simply going home. Being in college is the perfect time to take road trips. Even if you bother to tell your parents where you're headed, they don't have much of an opportunity to protest. There is also a good chance that you know several people who want toaccompany you— who doesn't love weekend vacations? Before you load your bags into the car, ask around to find possible "connections." Perhaps you know someone at another school who would love to have you visit. In my case, a friend's brother let us stay at his apartment in Charleston. Finding inexpen­ sive places to stay seems to make the trip even more enjoyable. ASU offers two opportunities for road trips that most studentsdon't take advantage of. The App Housein Washington, D.C. and The Loft in New York City are two inexpen­ sive places to stay. Make sure you don't spend four years here without taking advan­ tage of at least one of these wonderful oppor­ tunities. The approaching WakeForest/ASU foot­ ball game is also a great time to take a road trip. It seems as if more Appalachian stu­ dents attend this game in Winston-Salem than our own home games. We are lucky enough to be in an area where many attractions aren' t very far away. Many road trips can be taken in just one day. If you have a great deal of studying to do one weekend but desperately need to get away, a short road trip should be the perfect remedy for your stress. One of my favorite day trips is to get a I carload of friends and take off to Hanes Mall in Winston-Salem. Although the mall in Boone serves its purpose, it can't compare to the massive amount of stores in Hanes Mall. The trip only takes about two hours, but make sure you don't speed. I've gotten two| speeding tickets on the stretch of road be­ tween Boone and Winston-Salem. In those I cases, my thrifty daytrip idea became a little| more expensive. North Carolina has many interesting I places to visit that are within reasonable driving distance. The Biltmore House is something that I've always wanted to visit although the admission charge makes me cringe. If you don't mind paying a little extra, Christmastime and Springtime are sup-1 posed to be peak times to visit. There are several surrounding cities I that can be fascinating, especially since we | spend most of the week in a small town. Knoxville, Tennessee is a fun city to I visit. My old roommate lives in Knoxville, and for a three-hour drive we can be in a city with dance clubs and interesting restaurants. Richmond, Virginia is also a great lo­ cation for a road trip. Although I'm slightly biased since I live there, I firmly believe that nothing beats a long night spent at the clubs| in Shokoe Bottom. Whatever location you choose, whether it be Charleston or the zoo in Asheboro, your road trip will be memo­ rable. Feeling adventurous and impulsive? Buy a map, get an oil change, and set off for vour destination. �THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 31 AUGUST 1993, PAGE 8 Mountaineer Health Club 264-6384 We are: Conveniently located Open daily Very well equipped Nautilus, free weights, aerobics We are not: • Crowded • Expensive • For spectators • Closed during breaks Fraternity, Sorority, club, and group discount rates.

Those participating in flag football have rtunity to compete not only at Appalait but also state, regional, and national level titions as well. Each year, intramurals sends top offithe Georgia State Flag Football Champiis, the Southeast Regional Hag Football ipionships, and the National Flag Football pionships.

Not appearing on this season's sched­ ule isRazzle Dazzle. Razzle Dazzle, formerly sponsored by Forrester Beverage of Wilkesboro, lost sponsorship this year due to new sanctions by Anheuser Busch, which places restrictions on competitions which in­ volve an excess of individuals who are under the age of 21. Intramural athletics is also imposing two new rules this season pertaining to captain's meetings and deadlines. First, any team which registers to compete in an activity but fails to have a representative present at the captain's meeting will automatically be re­ moved from the competition. There will be no one week grace period as in the past. Second, sign up sheets will be due at 5:00 p.m.on their designated deadline dates. According to Eubanks, each of these rules will be strictly adhered to this year. Eubanks, Westmoreland, and Dav­ enport each noted that they would be working for increased participation as well as the ut­ most amount of satisfaction from the com­ petitors in regard to the programs. "We are always available to listen to anything that participants have to comment on," Eubanks said. "If they have new ideas or complaints, I urge them to come to me or one of the programmers, because unless we real­ ize that there is a desire for something new or a problem with the current system, we cannot make attempts to change it."

The team can appear on television but won't get any revenue. "The (Pac-10) will continue to allow us to play on television so they can reap monetary benefits as they have been doing because of the outstanding play of our Huskies for many years," James said. In a press statement, University President William Gerberding said the penalties were too harsh. "Neither the university's investigation nor that of the Pac-10 Conference found any in­ stance of willful midconduct by any univer­ sity employee," he said.

(CPS)—Hours after the Pacific 10 Conference imposed sanctions against the University of Washington football team for violating NCAA rules, football coach Don James quit after 18 seasons of coaching the Huskies. The Huskies have been placed on proba­ tion, banned from postseason play for two years and have to give up scholarships and $1.4 million in television revenue following an investigation by the Pac-lOofficials stated in late August. The probe, which lasted about 10 months, goes back to violations made from 1987 to 1991. Jim Lambright, also a defensive coordina­ tor at Washington, was named interim head coach, Athletic Director Barbara Hedgessaid. James was bitter about the sanctions in a press statement, "I have decided that I can no longer coach in a conference that treats its members, its coaches and their players so unfairly," James said in his letter of resigna­ tion. "Therefore, effective immediately, I am retiring as head football coach of the Wash­ ington Huskies." The charges against the Huskies included making monetary promises to prospective student athletes, not controlling accounting of cash for meal expenses during official visits by football recruits, gifts to football LYDIA CRAVER - EDITOR PHIL MCCARN ASSISTANT!

Students tripled up in East due to construction delays BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR Housing is still a problem for many stu­ dents after the first week of school. Delayed construction in Justice Hall as well as renovations in Gardner and Coltrane Halls forced residence life to shift some students to other residence halls. Some students have been tripled up in East Hall, and students are being housed in lob­ bies in Frank and Bowie Halls. There are twelve men in triple rooms in East Hall, 16 men in the seminar rooms and lobbies of Frank Hall and two men in the lobby of Bowie Hall. All these students are men who have been reassigned from the first floor of Justice Hall. After Residence Life completes the "no show" list they can offer most of the students permanent rooms. The students will be given the opportunity to move into a permanent room for the semester or stay in the lobbies until Justice is complete. Some Justice Hall residents have also been reassigned to 40 open spaces in Newland Hall for this semester and will be moved to Justice in the spring. Eight students from Gardner and Coltrane Halls have been assigned to Newland Hall also. Residence Life has identifiedapproximately 60 students that will be leaving after the fall semester due to internships, student teaching assignments and graduation. The spaces left vacant will be taken by students living in Newland Hall, where con­ struction is scheduled to begin in January. Watertank Leaking For 16 Years, Now ^Scheduled For Repairs The watertankon Bodenhiemer Drive by the Broyhill Center, which has been leaking for 16 years, will be ..repaired and moved behind the Broyhill Center next 5year. Dr. Ward Zimmerman, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, said that some pipes and valves are being moved to make immediate improvements. " The watertank has been leaking sinceit was built 16 years ago. Zimmerman said the University has known about the leakage and has been working to make s repairs for some time, but previous attempts to fix the "lank have failed. , The actual moving of the tank will not begin until »next year, said Zimmerman. He said that the Univer­ sity is deciding how to minimize the disruption to .students and that they are "moving as quickly as they K— » i can. "We've let it leak for 16 years and we'll let it leak -for 17," said Zimmerman. ASU Fraternity Receives Excellence Award | Appalachian State University's Iota Pi Chapter of the AlphaTau Omega Fraternity has received the True 1 1 Merit award from ATO national headquarters for the 1992-93 academic year. Each year the fraternity honors a select group of chapters best demonstrating efficiency, excellence ,,, and outstanding achievement in programs, personal »r development and overall operations. Of the 176 ATO wf chapters nationwide, only 12 True Merit awards are given. A national representative will officially present w ASU's Iota Pi Chapter with the award on Oct. 2. iiiii- University Police Prepare To Use Radar According to University Police, they now have g officers trained to use the new radar guns. At this point, the radar guns are not being used; however, Jtl press releases will be given before the University f actually starts to use the radars, ihr «Students Help Flood Victims A group of counseling students at Governors State University did more than watch theRood of '93on TV —they did something to help the flood victims. Professor Michael Lewis' class on group dynamics was looking for a project to test out several behavioral theories. Giving assistance to citizens in one of the "hall Illinois towns devastated by summer floods would teach them about group interaction, they de­ cided. When the professor and 11 students arrived in Keithsburg, 111., they found that 350 residents were homeless after river waterhad flooded their residences aod the tiny business district was submerged under 8 feet of water. The students got to work, filling and stacking sandhags, making sandwiches, washing dishes or babysitting children."I think themost important thing we did was not a physical act," said Janet Engle, a GSU student,"but it was beinga big morale boosterfor •he people."

NEWS DEPARTMENT TOR: USTANT EDITOR: LFF WRITERS: DAWN MCGUTRE AMY BEACH DANE PERRY ROBERT ROBERTSON Some students in East residence hall are tripled up because of construction setbacks in the rennovations to Justice residence hall, photo by John Heisel SGA sponsers registration drive Compiled by The Appalachian news staff Appalachian students can affect the out­ come of both the Boone City Council elec­ tions and the state's bond referendum if they register to vote by Sept.13. Registration has been set for Aug. 26 and will continue until Sept. 13. Sept. 13 will be the last day to register and vote in the elec­ tions. Bring a valid I.D. such as a driver's license or an Appalachian I.D. card. In order to vote on the referendum and local elections, students must register tovote. The Student Government Association will sponsor a registration drive for students SGA encourages new and returning students to register and vote. Boone elections will be held on Oct. 5, when city council will be elected among other offices. Among candidates running in the Boone election is Appalachian student Hunter Schofield, an activist for numerous regional environmental campaigns, a candidate for council. His platform includes such issues as a hillside preservation plan, which seeks to maintain the aesthetic integrity of area coun­ tryside and a rental housing reform, which would include a Better Business Bureau style council to help smooth relations between land­ lords and tenants. The bond referendum comes up for a state­ wide vote on Nov. 2. Included in the bond is money for campus rennovations, a new math and science complex and an academic sup­ port building for Appalachian. "Right now is a very critical time for Boone and the University," said Ray Paschal, SGA director of State Affairs. "The students of Appalachian can make the difference if they get out and vote." Requirements to register are: be a citizen of the United States, be 18 years of age at the time of the next election (Oct. 5), have lived in Watauga County for at least 30 days at the time of the election, and not be a convicted felon. {/«/ a, # THURSDAY 26 AUGUST 1993 Block party ends peacefully BY DANE PERRY STAFF WRITER On Monday, Aug. 23, Appalachian State University students welcomed in the new school year with a block party that slowly moved across town. The party started on Faculty Street at 10 p.m. and slowly moved to Plymouth Trace apartments before ending up on Hardin Street in front of Steeplechase Apartments. The party lasted until around 3:30 a.m. and by the lime it was over there were approximately 3,000 partici­ pants. The Boone Police Department began receiving complaints from residents on Faculty Street at about 10:30 p.m. and moved the people back off the street towards Highway 321. Once on 321 the crowd gathered and refused to move. At that point the Boone Police in conjunc­ tion with the Sheriffs Department and University Police blocked off the road and let the students stay. According toChiefTesterof the Boone Police Department there were only 10 to 15 arrests made but a number of citations were given. There were no injuries to students or police during the incident. At this time university officials, police and the community are attempting to devise alternatives for thestudents so this type of incident does not occur year after year. According to Vice Chancellor of Stu­ dent Development Greg Blimling,,"The chancellor and I have discussed alterna­ tives today and will meet with student development and various student leaders during the fall semester with the hope of avoiding some of the problems we expe­ rienced this year." When asked about the work of the police force in handling the situation Dr. Zimmerman of businessaffairs said, "The Boone and Appalachian police forces worked extremely well together and I have high respects for Zane Tester's discipl ine in containing a situation that could have gotten out of hand." When it came time to clean up after the party, Blimling stepped in along with the help of Barbara Daye, associate vice chan­ cellor of studentdevelopment, and handed out trash bags for the students to clean up after themselves. Blimling said, "Recognizing that the ASU students are concerned about the environment, we knew that if given the opportunity and the means that the Appa­ lachian students would want to clean up any debris they were responsible for. When asked to help, most students were more than willing. In fact they cleaned up about 85 percent of the debris in the area and the rest was cleaned up by the Boone Street Department." Blimling offered an apology to the town of Boone by saying, "I regret that the property owners were inconvenienced by the students and I hope that more suitable locations can be found by the students for these parties in the future." New fee allows ASU students to log on to computer network DANE PERRY STAFF WRITER A new state mandated computer usage fee will allow all Appalachian State University students access to campus computer centers. The $25 per semester fee replaces the user charge students had to pay in previous years. In years past, students paid $15 a semester for the use of campus computer labs. As a result only 55 percent to 60 percent of the student population used the computers. Dr. Deanna Bowman of Academic Com­ puting Services said, "Every student has been sent a confidential document to their ASU P.O. Box. Included in this document £-e the rules and regulations for using the computer labs. With any privilege you are given there are duties and responsibilities one has to assume." The University has not yet added any new computer stationson campus,but the current systems have been enhanced. Bowman said that although all students have access to the computers, the university cannot promise availibility. "Accessibility does not mean availability. Availability means that it is available for you to do what you need to do. There are many computers reserved forspecial usesand classes around campus that cannot be accessed for certain purposes," said Bowman. The current computer labs are the ACS Lab in the College of Business, Belk Library, Belk Hall, Justice Hall, White Hall, Edwin Duncan Computer Lab, Math and Science Lab in Walker Hall and the Computer Information Systems Lab in the College of Business. Each computer lab is now open to all Appalachian students. Labs which contain Macintosh computers are College of Business, Belk Library, East Hall and Walker Hall. photo by Paul Lampe All Appalachian students will be able to use campus computers thanks to a new state-mandated fee. �TUB APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 26 AUGUST 1993 PAGE 2 Campusbii racks chan with the tim NATIONAL BRIEFS COMPILED BY ROBERT ROBERTSON STAFF WRITER JFK PAPERS RELEASED Under a 1992 act of Congress 900,000 docu­ ments from the investigation into the assassi­ nation of President John F. Kennedy were placed on public display Monday. Dozens of journalists, historians,and conspiracy theorists filled the second floor of the National Archives to review the newly declassified photographs and reports concerning the November 22 mur­ der committed by Lee Harvey Oswald in 1963. Among the boxes of material were new details into the activities of Oswald prior to the assas­ sination and various KGB connections he held during his three years in the United States. Some documents suggest a link between Oswald and various informants in Cuba though ques­ tions still abound over their authenticity. An estimated 160,000 pages concerning the case are still being kept under classified status. Speculation abounds that these documents con­ tain evidence ofa link between theOA and the Mafia. Under the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 all files held by the government relevant to the investigation were to be released with the exception of those which pose a risk to national security. FATE OF MARS OBSERVER UNKNOWN ries found Officers Larry Nevers and Walter Budzyn guilty and each face a maximum pen­ alty of life imprisonment in the murder of Green on Nov. 5,1992. The two men repeat­ edly beat Green upside the head with flash­ lights in an effort to make him release some rock cocaine he clutched in his fist and refused to relinquish. An autopsy showed death was caused by at least 14 blows to the head,and the loss of some of his scalp in theprocess. A third defendant, Robert Lessnau,was found notguilty of assault with intent to cause bodily harm, while former SgL Freddie Douglas, the three defendants supervisor on the scene, will soon appear in court charged with neglect of duty. A $5.25 million settlement of civil damages be­ tween the city and Green's familyis still pend­ ing. NASA fears a $950 million mission to Mars is in jeopardy due to unexplained difficulties. On Saturday radio contact with the Mars Ob­ server was lost and as of Wednesday morning a link could not be reestablished. After an 11month, 450 million mile voyage, mission offi­ cials have no evidence that the spacecraft has entered orbit around Mars or if it has begun to pass the fourth planet altogether. There is also the possibility that the Observer was destroyed by a fuel tank explosion during it's refueling this past weekend.

We have s last year between students and the usual number of slumlords. The ords, and about 40 percent of area near the college is full of old homes cut into three or four apart­ ments." Northwest Missouri provides com­ puters in dormitory rooms and other services tocreate incentives to stay on campus, VanDyke said. But many students want to move off campus for various reasons. "Many of them are over the party­ ing frenzy. They haveestablished their freedom and don't have to prove any­ thing," VanDyke said. "They may have a significant other in their lives. That's their business. They're grownups. They want more privacy. They believe they can pool their re­ sources on certain thingsand eat when they want to. It's part of the matura­ tion process in moving from the cam­ pus community, and having activities taken care of for you, to managing on your own." Unlike other campuses, Northwest­ ern Missouri offers no legal aid to students. However, there are lawyers who teach on campus, and students have contacted them when a dispute occurs. Several faculty members wrote a guide for students on what to watch out for entitled "Tips for the Wary Renter." The suggesions include: • Read lease agreements carefully. Before you sign a contract, read every detail. • Investigate. Before signing anything, make an effort to find out the best landlords by talking with people you trust. • Find out what's wrong. Compile a list of pre-existing damages (cracked light fixtures, walls, outlets that don't work etc.) so you won't be charged later. "Be highlvs^sniciousof a guy hav­ ing to promise to fix things. Things should be in good order when they first move in. We have seen some incredible things like a landlord who ran a gas line on the outside of a house," she said. "We've had stu­ dents see a room and be told not to plug so many things into this oudet. That's a fire hazard. When you're 19 or 20 you think you're going to live forever, so it doesn't matter to them. This invulnerability is a problem." Some housing officials also sug­ gest students obtain rental insurance for loss, but find out first whether thefts or damages would be covered by their parents' insurance policies. The community housing office at UCSB publishes a 77-page tenant's handbook for students who are con­ sidering living off campus. Included are lists of responsibilities both for tenants and landlords, suggested remedies for disputes both with landlords and roommates, and safety issues. Karon, at the University of Michi­ gan, said word of mouth is valuable when looking at property. 'Try to find out if the landlord is reputable. Talk to someone who lives in the building," he said."Landlords can be fast talkers and students will accept what they say." He suggested that students look at the apartment they are going to rent and not just the model, and check such items as window coverings, paint condition, bathrooms, the kitchen and electrical outlets and appliances. Additionally, if students don't un­ derstand terms of the contract, they should have an attorney review it. Once signed, the terms of the lease are binding. "Students are somewhat ignorant of their rights. They are away from their parents for the first time to stake some sort of claim," Karon said."Each state is different in landlord-tenant laws. They are exposed to it for the first time." -CPS Leave your car while in class!

[bo much trash, too little respect BY DAVID HUGHES COMMENTARY EDITOR )ne of the best things about living in Boone is the absolutely macular scenery that surrounds us every day. The entire High | area, in fact, is rich with natural beauty and recreational Intry labilities for outdoor enthusiasts of all types. The Blue Ridge itway is a veritable treasure chest of lakes, fields, streams, cascadwaterfalls, trails, bluffs, and panoramic views. Both Linville •ge National Wilderness Area and Pisgah National Forest are ily accessible by car. Grandfather Mountain and its Profile Trail only a few miles from campus. Moses Cone Park and theWatauga er are also within ten-minute drives from Boone. People drive nother statesto take advantageof the area's several ski slopes such leech Mountain, SugarMountain, and Hawksnest. One trip down parkway reveals the magnitude of excellent rock climbing avail! here as well. So whether you prefer skiing, hiking, mountain ng, rock climbing, bird watching, fishing, camping, canoeing >king, or any other recreational activity, there is an ideal outlet your particular interests in this area, laces of such spectacular beauty attract people who come visit to ' part in that beauty in some way. Each fall people migrate in ves 10 the High Country to witness the leaves as they turn their !h colors. I appreciate the fact that this abundant beauty must be rcd with anyone who makes the pilgrimage for the experience. *ever, I get angry when individuals impose on everyone else's to enjoy this natural setting by leaving some little part of pelves behind in some way or another, everyone who hikes has seen an artifact of human plundering. I •ember vividly a carving in an ancient oak that read, "Dwayne loves uny 1987."

PURCELL — BUSINESS MANAGER JENNIFER LONG — PRODUCTION COORDINATOR KARL A SMITH — PHOTO EDITOR LAURA J. KOLB — HEAD TYPESETTER had to sell his Camaro to keep up with the alimony payments. Recently, I saw a spray-paintedmessageon anoverpass which read "Dwayne loves Starla 93." So much for the tree. The point of this clearly sarcasticlittle story is that our presence in this place wecall Boone is a purely temporary condition. In four years,or two years—regardless of the length of our stay—when our brief academic sojourn is completed here, most of us will migrate to some new job, or perhaps to a new school, or another new place for various reasons. Others will come to Boone and will fill the new vacancies found in dorms, apartments, and on the rail at the Klondike. New faces perhaps, but the cycle continues. These new faces will arrive expecting to find a place of magnificent natural beauty, just as we found, and I believe that it is our responsibility to leave this place even more pristine than we found it. A beautiful network of trails just below the Broyhill Center meanders through thickets of Rhododendron and Mountain Laurel. Moss covers the trunks of many trees, and a clear little stream midway between campus and the Broyhill Inn gradually makes its way down slope to a pond. I havewalked these trails regularly during the year that I have lived here in Boone. Yet, each time I pass by that pond, I find extremely intrusive evidence that other people have abused the privilege of experiencing that place. Based on some innate lack of respect, others rave left beer and soda bottles, aluminum cans, candy wrappers, and other various articles of human plundering and insensitivity behind them. This is truly amazing to me. In that weare solucky to have such a gorgeous little spot accessible to us, it is difficult for me to fathom that others do not respect that place, or anyone elsefor that matter, by leaving their trash there plainly on the ground! For a full year now, each time I walk that trail, I carry away at least one piece of garbage that another disrespectful individual has left there. It does not take much time to carry out one bottle or wrapper. The process is simple and slow, but I estimate that most erf that garbage accumulated one piece at a time, and it can easily, if slowly, be removed the same way. Now the obvious flaw in my plan is that the amount of refuse would remain constant if a steady trickle is removed while new icons of insensitivity are deposited at the same rate. The key is, for those of you that have not figured it out yet, pick up your *%A#!@ trash! Get a clue! Does anyone remember the Indian on television who always cried when he saw litter in our streams or along our roadways? What about "Keep America Beautiful" cam­ paigns? Let us all cultivate a level of respect for this place that we call home now, but must pass on to a future generation. I ask you all as members of this community, please do not leave trash strewn about; rather, dispose of it in designated receptacles. Pack out what you carry in, plus an extra piece or two, and do your best to leave no trace of your presence in that space. Practice this philosophy below the Broyhill Inn, along the Parkway, around campus, in the national forests, and in other places that need to be preserved. It all comes back to me now. In kindergarten my teacher Mrs. Mills taught me to always clean up after myself. We should have all learned that lesson already. The recent block party controversy is a symptom of the perpetually strained relationship between the Appa­ lachian student community and the non-student Boone population. The Town of Boone has long given Appalachian students the cold shoulder. At various times, Boone officials and Boone residents have exerted special ef­ forts toensure that students are effectively banned from participation in the local decision-making process. Boone police are not a resource for students. Many students feel that the officers assume an adversarial or even antagonistic role when students are involved. Certainly the treatment of Boone's student citizens is not equal to that of other residents. The message Boone gives to Appalachian's stu­ dents is clear: "We want your money, but we don't want you." While almost nobody would tolerate this attitude from their permanent community, we as Appalachian students tend to accept unfair treatment from our town because most of us know that our individual residency in Boone is temporary. The larger concern for us as a university community is that the student population is not only permanent, but growing. Many students feel that their voices are unimportant in the local political process; this is exactly the attitude that Boone's powers-that-be want us to have. Issues that are of concern to us as students today will certainly continue to be student concerns; when we make decisions about where we should vote, or even if we should vote, we should consider the classes of students who will come to Appalachian after we have graduated. While at Appalachian, weshould take an active role in the politics of this community. Awareness of the political processes which affect us isevery individual's responsibility. For students, this time of our lives is a great opportunity to explore politics, become involved, and gain experience in taking control of our environ­ ments. The first step in making ourselves heard is register­ ing to vote. Once registered, we owe it to ourselves not only as individuals, but as a community—a community with a future—to make our voices heard and vote in every election held while we are students at Appala­ chian. Our readers write... Boone Police insensitive to student community To the editor I would like to inform the entire student body and local community about a situation I believe was handled very poorly by the Boone Police Department.On the evening of Aug. 24,the annual block party held between the Kappa Sigma house and the Kappa Alpha house was "controlled" to such an extent that the event was forcibly directed out into much less suitable, and arguably much more dangerous areas. The party, scheduled to take place between 9 p.m. to 2 a.m., was intentionally supervised by the local authorities due to the fact that between 2,500 and 5,000 students have attended this event in past years. The party was supposed to have taken place in a location that was removed from local businesses, private residences, and major roadways. However, many students feel they were harassed by the police officers on duty in attempts to close the party dowa Needless to say, many students were upset as seemingly trumped-up rules were enforced, such as "no coolers allowed," or "no walking or standing allowed in certain areas." The police officers made at least one critical mistake as they herded the multitudes away from this "no fun allowed zone,"in that the crowd then descended upon the area around the Klondike, Legends, and the baseball field. Think carefully about this one now. The police directed thousands of people out into one of the busiest intersections in Watauga County. The party would have been controlled and out of the way on Faculty street where it was intended to have been held. But thanks to the BPD, roughly 3,000 students were then congregating in local homeowners' yards and trampling their flower beds. It is not hard to figure out which location would have been better for that type of activity. The local community, as well as the students, would have been better served and fewer feathers would have been ruffled on all sides of this issue if the authorities had simply allowed the party to exist in the intended location. The thoughtless decision on behalf of the Boone Police Department resulted in more damage to state and private property,created traffic flow problems and generally showed no regard for the safety of the students involved. Thanks for a job well done, BPD. Please work with us, and we will cooperate with you.

Both 31 inds perform regularly in town, and both jive amassed a significant following. 1 Junkflower's current lineup has been to\ther for about a year. The band is based here j Boone, and features Chris Church on guiicking vocals, Joey Dickson on vocals, Everhardt on bass, John Hawkins on s, and Jimi Robison on guitar. They 3bve a five-song cassette EP (entitled ^tentative" E ^ 'Junkflower"), which will be available lo­ cally in September. Chris Church also has a solo disc out. John Hawkins described Junkflower's sound as "guitar-driven" rock, and he men­ tioned The Replacements, Big Star, Matthew Sweet and The Smiths as influences. The band is planning an eventual CD release. Hawkins and Jon Leeds (of The Pygmies) have established Wee-KneeRecords (PO Box 3414, Boone, 28607) with the purpose of getting their music out to fans and promoting some other area talent. The Chris Church disc and a Flat Earth CD are also available from the label.. The Pygmies have maintained its current lineup since January 1992. The band, cur­ rently based in Boone and Asheville, appears locally on a regular basis and includes Kenan James (vocals), Jon Leeds (drums), Robert Martin (guitar) and Wade Rittenbeny (bass). A self-titled cassette is available, and new releases, including a 7" single, are planned for the fall. Jon Leeds mentioned Primus as a major influence, but generally skirted theinfluences question, emphasizing the band's goal of "doing our own thing." He described the band's sound as "crazy rock-nroll." For Saturday's Pub show, doors will open at approximately 9 p.m. Admission for students is $2 advance and $3 at the door. The price for guests is S3. In addition to the Pub show, both bands have a number of other local appearances planned. The Pygmies will be appearing at the Cellar in Charlotte on Sept. 3-4, and will be at Klondike Cafe on Sept. 30.

The mere mention of she legendary Minneapolis band still inspires twe and giddy nostalgia to many, even three s after their much publicized demise. The band was formed in 1979 by Bob Stinson, younger brother Tommy, and Chris 3Hars (lead singer and songwriter Paul jVesterberg joined shortly thereafter), and :rved as a post-punk Rolling Stones to dis­ sented youth raised on 70's album rock, hey started out as an intelligent punk band id matured over the course of several years ito the best rock'n'roll band in the world, heir critical peak was in 1984, with the Mease of Let It Be. The album showed the Hats wearing their influences well and fusig them into a punk-folk-pop union, which is ternatingly kick-the-door-down raucous and ar-jerkingly desperate. Sire Records quickly signed the band to a tjor label deal, and the resulting album, im, showed the band making no concesons, and generally kickin' butt The 'Mats uch-chronicled propensity for booze,drugs, Jnd all-around "don't give a s***" attitude was catching up with them. Guitarist Bob Stinson was kicked out of the band he formed for being bleary-eyed in a band that hadn't ieen straight since adolescence. Three years later, 1987's incredible 'leased to Meet Me was recorded as a trio. ix-Curtiss A guitarist Slim Dunlap joined the ®nd as a fourth member on asubsequent U.S. °ur. Two more albums, Don't Tell A Soul All Shook Down were recorded with this All Shook Down was a de facto Westerberg soloalbum, featuring session men ® lieu of the 'Mats on many cuts. Drummer -hris Mars, who reportedly played on only w° or three cuts, left the band shortly therefter. Steve Foley replaced Mars on the folOwing tour, which proved to be the last one. After the demise of the band, many were eft wondering what would come next. Aside rom Paul, would any of the other ex-'Mats r arry on? Chris Mars answered that question J-ackly, releasing thecritically praisedHorse°es and Hand Grenades in April of 1992. Although the album was greatly anticipated by die-hard 'Mats fans, not many would have foreseen this fantastic pop gem. Owing more to Ray Davies than Paul Westerberg, Mars wrote all fourteen songs, which re­ call The K i n k s and The Who as well as T h e ' Mats. Mars also plays all instru­ ments ex­ cept bass on the al­ bum. The standouts - Reverse Status, MWUftm Happy Discon­ nections, and City Lights on Mars are guaranteed to hang in your brain all day; if you have one left, that is. Mars followed this up in early '93 with 75% Less Fat, the title showing his continu­ ing disregard for the 'Mats mystique. Al­ though it doesn't quite measure up to the standard set on the debut, Mars still skillfully avoids the proverbial "sophomore slump." Fat is loaded with gritty pop gems, the disre­ spectful No Bands, and the vulgar Car Camping, and it's not always pretty. How­ ever, it is never boring and quite often catchy as hell. Up next in the solo album department was Tommy Stinson. His band, Bash and Pop, which he formed for touring purposes shortly after the breakup, released their debut album, Friday Night Is Killing Me. The band, which includes Tommy on guitar and replacement Replacements drummer Steve Foley, delivers on its' promise with an album the Stonesor Faces would have been proud to call their own. Highlights include the rollick­ ing Never Aim to Please and Loose Ends, the tender Nothing, and the perfect pop of Tiny Pieces. Other high points include First Steps, which just America over pretentious high-brow, overeducated establishment know-nothings. Down Love finishes things off in blistering punk fashion, recalling the 'Mats earlier days. In between these two solid bookends is no m i g h t shortage of quality stuff.

Well, I just lw a movie that knocked my socks off, and P> Prepared to write my first four-star review f ®e summer. I The Fugitive" is the latest old television r*t0 he revived on the movie screen. I was P around when the television series aired, P have not seen it in syndication, 1 entered the movie theater expecting Iher predictible action-type film. I was °n8- I walked out gasping for air. 'The j. Fugitive" is the most exciting, slick, suspenseful and intriguing movie of the year. The movie starts out like the television series. Doctor Richard Kimble is wrongfully convicted of killing his wife. The bus taking him to prison is involved in a freak accident and he escapes. Kimble dedicates himself to finding his wife's real killer, a one-armed man. Nipping at his heelsare federal marshals and the police. Then "The Fugitive" gallops off in a whole new direction, with plenty of plot twists, suspense, intrigue and action. It manages to avoid the traditional action film cliches of excessive violence and predictability (like "Cliffhanger"), and it is far from being just another mystery-suspense thriller, bogged down with so many plot turns that the viewer and the movie itself are lost (like "Rising Sun"). "The Fugitive" has a perfect balance of action and ingenuity from start to finish. The acting is nothing short of spectacu­ lar. Harrison Ford gives what may be his greatest performance. He plays Richard Kimble, not as a superhero, but as a man scared to death, only interested in clearing his name and getting through one more day. His thoughts and fears reveal themselves most visibly in his actions and expressions, rather than in his spoken words. The most surprising thing about "The Fugitive" is that the man chasing Kimble, Deputy U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard, is not de­ picted as a mean, ruthless cop, but as a fair man with a mission that happens to be as equally justifiable as Kimble's. Tommy Lee Jones gives Gerard just the right amount of wit, sarcasm and bravado to make him the most interesting good-bad guy in years. This is one of the only movies where you root for both the protagonist and the antagonist. One of the best scenes in the movie is a spectacular bus and train wreck that will leave you breathless. Incidentally, that scene and much of the movie was filmed here in North Carolina. "The Fugitive" is by far the best movie of the year; it may even knock "Jurassic Park" back to the Stone Age. As far as actionmystery-suspense thrillers go, noothermovie will be able tocatch "The Fugitive" for a long time to come. "The Fugitive" is rated PG-13 for vio­ lence and profanity. Grade:**** DAVID ALSTON - EDITOR KRISTLVE FORREST - ASSISTANT The desire for stability BY KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT-DIVERSIONS EDITOR The same thought runs through my mind every year at about this time, "Is this really what I want to be doing?" While I help move things into my new apartment I watch as my parents put up the posters that belong in my room back home. I realize how much I'm going to miss family cookouts, my cat and reading the morning paper at the kitchen table. After a few years of moving back and forth from home to college I finally realized what it is that I really miss: stability. Being at home seems to make me feel much more secure than being at school. When I'm at home things are taken care of for me; I always know that it's not up to me to find something for dinner or to figure out how the car is going to be fixed. The years we spend in college tend to put us in a strange position. Apartments and dorms are usually only temporary homes, yet we don't live with our parents any more. Our classes and daily schedules change even more rapidly than our residences. Driving through some of Boone's resi­ dential areas will occasionally make me en­ vious of the people who live there. I think of the people who already have jobs and homes. They don't have to worry about writing papers or studying for exams. What could be more satisfying than having a steady pay­ check and spending evenings reading by the fireplace? Actually, there is something more satis­ fying, the knowledge that I'm young and have plenty of time to decide how to live my life. I don't have to worry about house payments or tax deductions. I can take road trips anytime the urge hits me, and the only things I'm responsible for are my fish. These are the years when we are sup­ posed to feel unstable. Being on our own not only teaches us responsibility and indepen­ dence but also gives us years to reminisce and laugh about. Surely one day you can find me in my own house reading by the fireplace, but unti1 then I'11 be perfectly happy not quite knowing where I belong. Stretching your fun dollars BY KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR Appalachian students often complain that there is little to do in the town of Boone. Many would be surprised at what Boone has to offer. It's not difficult to have fun and stay on a budget at the same time. Movies are a popular pastime, yet it be­ comes expensive to keep up with all of the current flicks. Boone offers two theaters that charge only one dollar for admission, a true bargain since the movies are relatively new. The I G. Greer Theater on campus also runs inexpensive movies, including some film classics and occasional foreign films, but the selection is often not as current. Students who insist on seeing newly re­ leased movies can still do so at a lower price. The Litchfield Cinema sells tickets for $4 to students who show their student IDs. The normal adult admission costs $5. Many opportunities are also available for students who enjoy dancing. Legends offers a DJ dance almost every weekend for S1. The lounge at the Quality Inn has a shag club and also allows dancers to practice their Texas 2Step. For those who are willing to spend a 1 ittle more, Shadrack' s offers a buffet and live music for fans of square dancing. Live bands attract many students to restau­ rants and bars in the area. Sollecito's, Klondike, and even Legends are popular places to see bands. Savannah Joe's also entertains bored students. Karaoke is offered twice a month. Performers-at-heartcan sing to popular songs in front of the entire bar. This can be amusing for both the singers and the people in the audience. For those less star-studded, Savan­ nah Joe's has several pool tables available for only a few dollars an hour. It's a shame that Appalachian is known as a "suitcase campus" when the town of Boone offers so many entertainment opportunities. Hopefully, students will stop running every weekend and will start exploring some of the fun and inexpensive things to do here in town. �I HI: APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 26 AUGUST 1993 - -'"•'PAGE 8 Acting cool, living at the movies ancl J i m Carr^ BY DAVID ALSTON DIVERSIONS EDITOR ' sec I he ghosts of my childhood/dressed in blue, ihey irail me in the night/they drive these ears with real upholstery/they trail me until... here comes the night." These lines, about halfway into the sec­ ond cut ( Work, Not Play"), neatly sum up much of Jim Carroll's philosophy, and help to explain much of his lingering appeal. lo otter an introduction to the fascinat­ ing work ot this enigmatic and semi-legend;iry artist, Rhino Records has belatedly as­ sembled a generous best-of: "A World With­ out Gravity- The Best of the Jim Carroll Band. Work, Not Play, one of the band's strongest tracks, is taken from the 1982 re­ lease "Dry Dreams," and stands as one of the high spots of this compilation. As an individual, Carroll has become some­ thing of an underground legend himself. In addition to the three band projects, he has also recorded a spoken word album, reading pieces taken from his four books. The best known of the books, "The Basketball Diaries", first published in 1978, is the actual diary kept by the adolescentCarroll between 1963 and 1966. The book describes, in brutal and explicit detail, Carroll's slide into heroin addiction. Carroll, a gifted wfiter and talented basketball player (he was profiled in Time magazine during the same period) managed to eventu­ ally bring his life back into control, publishing a second diary ("Forced Entries") and two collections of poetry ("Living at the Movies and I he Book of Nods") during the seventies and eighties. Carroll's first manuscript of poems, "Liv­ ing at the Movies", written during his compli­ cated adolescence, was published in 1973— the yearof his northern California detox. This period of time is covered in greater detail in Forced Entries, and in the second volume of poems ( The Book of Nods", published in 1987). His self-reflective comments in "Forced Entries are another key to understanding Carroll s outlook and form a thematic back­ drop illuminating his literary and musical accomplishments. Leaving behind cynical, self-medicated New Yawkeese for the oh-so-mellow Califor­ niaof theseventies,Carroll noted t h a t . m o s t folks in this town (Bolinas) are convinced the sixties never ended... they clutch that notion like an ax, and it's not smart to get within range while offering any dissenting opinions ("Forced Entries")". A group of old friends from New York is thankfully present to help prevent a slide into post-Summer of Love navel-gazing. Not that New York was a whole lot better. "I've become so weary of New York s speed, the ever-accelerating and forced perversity and vacillation." The tension between two extremes—parasitic, "life sucks" cynicism and gratuitous laidbackisms (as in Woody Allen's "If I get too mellow, I tend to ripen... and rot")—energizes Carroll's writing and his music. Both of Carroll's creative vehicles are fueled by a uniquely un-sappy sense of humanity, thankfully short on both hostility and half-baked grooviness. Thus, the music on this generous (eighteen songs, an hour of m usic) overview of Carroll's rock-n-roll history is clean, straight-to-thepoint, stripped of too much punk rancor or too many good vibes lo be healthy. The lyrics are unsentimental and dagger-sharp (reminiscent of musical comrades Richard Hell, Tom Verlaine and Paui Smith), but loaded with revelatory and occasionally inspiring human observations. The most pointed of Carroll's critiques are directed toward both the kamikaze deca­ dence he escaped and the upwardly-mobile I heater addition named for patron BY KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR The Theater and Dance Department will soon have a new facility for their productions thanks to the donation ot a stage actress.

"The Best Of' includes six of its songs. The classic title track (Carroll grew up in a Catholic home) is present, as are "People Who Died and 1 Want the Angel" —two kinetic tunes fired by lyrics that name check various aspects of personal history, while maintaining a for­ ward gaze. That neither of these tunes col­ lapses into canned platitude is another testa­ ment to Carroll's (and his band s) talent.

CRAVER "Our leaders will likely be those with the greatest skill level," Burleson noted. "And that may tend to lean to the sophomore class since we have such a younger squad this year." SPORTS EDITOR £ ^SU Head Coach Cathy Burleson is pleased what she has seen thus far with her field Sckey squad. Id this season. They (the senior players) will definately the ones I go to for leadership on our team leson said. "They have the most experie on the field." iThe squad will welcome the return of sopholores Barry Clyatt, Katy DeMarco, Jennifer lutton, Joyce Hill, Rachael Megee, Elena loore, Ingrid Stamberg, Denise Whyte and indy Wood. In addition, sophomore Leigh Bass will •turn to the program after a brief stint with te Lady Apps last season. Other newcomerswill includeJen Broderick f Waldorf, MD, Megan Corradino of Nortlk, VA, Kris Leskowitz of Gaithersburg, ID, Tara Fachada of Rocky Mount and Katie rookman of Charlotte. Burleson noted that Broderick, Corradino id Leskowitz would "be the strongest to lallenge for starting positions." Burleson has not established a starting line p at this time and noted that therefore it was ifficult to comment on the roles individual layers will be called upon to take. Fairfield, David and Elkins,Richmond, Siena, Louisville, Ohio and Catawba. "We have a very tough schedule this year," Burleson noted. "We will be playing several other Division I schools that are perhapscom­ parable to our skill level." The Lady Mountaineers will open the sea­ son on Sept. 5 with a home match against one of their top rivals in the Lady Wildcats of Davidson College. "We are usually very competitive with Davidson," Burleson said. "I will be looking for a good game and if we have a nice home crowd it could definately work to our advan­ tage." Appalachian State will be celebrating 25 years of hockey at the University on Sept. 45 with a number of alumni players returning to ASU for a banquet as well as the season opener.

Volleyball Schedule The defending Southern Conferencecham­ pion Lady Mountaineer volleyball squad is looking for a repeat of last year's perfor­ mance. The trouble is, however, that they will have to do it without the help of five starters that were lost to graduation. Middle blocker Deanna Keen enters her senior campaign as the only returning starter from last year's squad which went undefeated in the Southern Conference during the regular season. Michelle Wright also returns for her senior year after sitting out most of 1992 due to injury. Seven of the 12 team members on this year's squad are either Freshmen or Sopho­ mores. "Although we will be somewhat young and very inexperienced," said Appalachian head coach Dave Markland,"I don't see this as a rebuilding year. I think we have a talented, versatile group that simply played back-up to an excellent senior class in '92." Several youngsterswill beexpected tojump in and contribute immediately for the Lady Apps. Heidi McElhaney and Kim Manis will both enter as juniors and likely be given the task of filling the holes that are now available on the starting line-up. Coming in as freshmen will be Emily Overcash, April Sorrells, and Jennifer Whitney. "It would be very unfair to expect (our recruiting class) to replace our seniors from last year," said Markland, now entering his second yearat the helm. "But I do feel that we have made positive strides in filling the holes left through graduation." The 1993 schedule features tough non-con­ ference competition and will include the tra­ ditional uncertainty within the SC. "This year's schedule will be even more challenging than in '92," said Markland. "I believe that the Southern Conference will be stronger from top to bottom and we have several key matches on the road. Our nonconference competition includes traditionally tough UNC-Chapel Hill, Virginia Tech, Day­ ton, and UNC-Asheville." This year, for the first time, the Southern Conference tournament champion will re­ ceive an automatic bid to the post-season NCAA tournament, putting an emphasis on improving throughout the year. "In spite of our youth and inexperience, I am really impressed with the aggressive, competitive attitude of this group," said Markland. "I belive that we will show im­ provement throughout the season and chal­ lenge our opposition to play at their highest level." The Lady Mountaineers begin action in Asheville, NC on Sept. 7 against UNCAsheville followed by the Virginia Tech Tour­ nament Sept. 10-11 with the Lady Hokies, Montana State, and Dayton. Appalachian's first home match will be in Varsity Gym on Sept. 15 against Winthrop with game time slated for 7 p.m. 17 HO HI U5 118 119 124 125 128 .8 at UNC-Asheville TBA Virginia Tech Tournament WINTHROP .13 .18 • 22 • 24 • 27 • 29 •31 '.2 '.6 '.7 '•9 '•12 MARSHALL 2:00 pm •-at Fairfield, a Nov. 7 *at Southern Conference Tournament TBA A-at Davidson Tournament TBA Nov. 20 7:00 pm at Virginia Tech Tournament *at Southern Conference Tournament TBA %-at Blacksburg, VA Nov. 21 *at Southern Conference Tournament TBA S-at Salisbury *at Southern Conference •at Greensboro TBA al •at Huntington, WV 7:00 pm at Davidson Tournament TBA at Davidson Tournament TBA 1993 Soccer Schedule 1993 Field Hockey Schedule 7:00 pm UNC-GREENSBORO at South Carolina Tournament at South Carolina Tournament TBA Sept 4 RADFORD at UNC-Asheville 3:00 pm Sept 6 TBA RADFORD 7:30 pm DAVDISON 2:00 pm Sept 8 UNC-GREENSBORO 7:30 pm Sept. 8 7:00 pm Sept. 5 RADFORD 1200 pm Sept 16 at Wake Forest 4:00 pm at Jacksonville Tournament TBA Sept. 12 WAKE FOREST 1:00 pm Sept 19 THE CITADEL 1:00 pm at Jacksonville Tournament .9 .12 Nov. 14 Nov. 19 3 TBA Sept. 20 at Fairfield 3:00 pm Sept 22 atClemson 7:00 pm Sept 21 TBA Sept 26 at Winthrop 1:00 pm 4:30 pm Sept 30 FURMAN 1200 pm Oct6 4:30 pm Oct 10 NORTH CAROLINA AAT7:00 pm Sept 25 •Siena at Davidson ALouisville at East Tennessee State Sept 30 at Catawba at North Carolina State 7:30 pm 7:30 pm « UNC-Chapel Hill 7:00 pm at Marshall 2:00 pm at UNC-Greensboro 2:00 pm FURMAN at Georgia Southern 700 pm at Georgia Southern 1:00 pm Oct 12 LIBERTY 7:00 pm Oct 15 MARSHALL 4:00 pm Oct. 10 OHIO Oct 19 at Campbell at Mia. ti of Ohio 1:00 pm Oct. 22 at Virginia Military 3:00 pm Oct. 19 at Radford 3:30 pm Oct 27 %Davis and Elkins TBA at Davidson 7:00 pm Oct. 23 7:00 pm 2:00 pm 7O0pm at UNC-Chapel Hill Oct. 16 7:00 pm at Radford VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH Oct. 9 12:00 pm 7:00 pm WESTERN CAROLINA Sept 22 Oct 29 at Richmond TBA VIRGINIA TECH Oct 31 UNC-WILMNGTON 1200 pm YDIA CRAVER - EDITOR PHIL MCCARN - ASSISTANT Automatic bid relaxes ASU This season will mark the second for the field hockey program playing on turf surface rather than grass surface. "It is difficult to erase everything that girls have learned to do on the grass for four or five years," Burleson said. "But, that is what we have to do. We are in the process of adapting to the turf and we are learning to play better on it since this will be our second year doing so. It just takes a long time to unlearn what you have been taught and releam skills and tech­ niques another way." The Lady Apps will take on a rather chal­ lenging schedule this fall with such programs as Virginia Commonwealth in the lineup. VCU finished in the top 20 nationally last season. The season will also feature contests with such programs as Radford, Wake Forest, But, a lot of work is cut out for a team iposed of 15 freshmen and sophomores only four seniors. lot of work is cut out for a team that is in midst of the transitional process from lying on grass to playing on turf. ,dd to that one of the more difficult scheds the field hockey program has witnessed i the past few years and you have quite a ,n ahead of you. urleson will look to her lone four seniors ittie Jean Hunt,Tammy Everhart, Melinda igle and Jennifer Roy to take charge on the maf 4:00 pm 4:00 pm at UT-Chattanooga 2:00 pm Oct 30 UNC-CHARLOTTE 7:00 pm Nov. 6 Sat Deep South Tournament TBA Nov. 5 •at Southern Conference Tournament TBA EAST TENNESSEE STATE 7:00 pm Nov. 7 Sat Deep South Tournament TBA Nov. 6 •at Southern Conference Tournament TBA 1:00 pm A Iflmtiwm For the first time in history, the Appalachian State Mountaineer men's soccer squad can set its goal on an automatic bid to the post­ season NCAA tournament. The tournament will now host 32 teams, 16 of which will be auto­ matic bids from the winners of various conference toumments. Appalachian Head Coach Art Rex could not be more pleased. "What that does is," said Rex, "since we now have an automatic qualifier attached to our confer­ ence we no longer have to have a phenomenal year in order to qualify for the NCAA tourna­ ment." Rex is now focusing his atten­ tion on improving throughout the year and preparing for the confer­ ence tournament. Rex's biggest obstacle will be the replacement of two stand-outs from a year ago, Scott Griffith and David Terry. "I think our biggest strength will be our defense and midfield just with the returning players," said Rex. "Our biggest question marks will be the replacement of Scott Griffith and David Terry." Terry will still contribute, but this year it will be from the side­ lines as a Mountaineer assistant coach. With the exception of these players, last year's squad will be basically held intact. "Jason Hockstra returns for us in goal," said Rex. "He got a lot of experience last year. Joel Nesbitt, our sweeper-back returns, Kyle Stam returns, and Ryan Anderson returns. Those are our three starting backs from last year, so that is what gives us some strength there." "Those guys," added Rex, "with the addition of Kevin Turner, a freshman from Pittsburgh, as well as Brett Harrell will make us very strong in the backfield." Brian Jillings comes back to the Mountaineer midfield for his senior campaign after uncertainty surrounding his return. "The key return at midfield, and we were not sure that he was going to come back until a couple of weeks ago, will be Brian Jillings," said Rex. "Without a doubt, I think that he is one of the top players in the conference and we are going to look toward him to handle the pace of the game and for leader­ ship on the field." Other players at midfield that are expected to contribute include Jay Lane, Brian Cone, and Greg Rhinehardt as well as newcomer Mike Moody. "We are going to be a different type of team," said Rex. "We will be looking for a lot of combination play up front. Jillings has said that it will be scoring by committee because we won't have that one guy (Terry) to go to when we need a big goal." The Mountaineers kick off the season on Sept. 4 at the University of North Carolina at Asheville before the home opener against Radford on Sept. 8. �THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY 26 AUGUST 1993 PAGE 12 RECREATIONAL SPORTS GUIDE EVEKYTInnNG YOU NEE® TO KNOW ABOUT HNTKAMIUIRAILS, Till QMNN CENTEK AN® CLOT SPORTS QUINN RECREATION CENTER HOURS OF OPERATION: Facility.

Students shuffle as bathrooms are delayed BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR Construction on Justice, Gardner and Coltrane resi­ dence halls forced Residence Life to reassign some first-floor students, while those students remaining in Justice must make do with fewer bathrooms. Most students scheduled to move onto the first floors of Justice, Gardner and Coltrane Halls were reassigned to Newland Hall, with a few students reas­ signed to Frank and Belk Halls. The University has brought in extra toilet facilities in trailers for Justice residents. Residence Life is working with University depart­ ments to keep student inconvenience to a minimum. As of Monday afternoon, five bathrooms wereopen in Justice. On each floor, the resident assistant rooms, which include a full bath, are unoccupied so those bathrooms are available to everyone on the hall. Dr. Ward Zimmerman, Vice Chancellor for Busi­ ness Affairs, said that bathrooms will beopened as they are completed, and he anticipates two-day intervals between openings. He expects the project to be com­ pleted in two to three weeks. Completion of the construction project in Justice was delayed when asbestos removal took longer than anticipated. Clyde Robbins,Assistant ViceChancellorfor Physi­ cal Operations, expressed frustration with a State De­ partment of Construction regulation that awards con­ tracts to the lowest of three bidders for projects. "The major problem was that we had to take the lowest bidder, which in myopinion was a poorcontrac­ tor," said Robbins. Photo by Dawn McQuire Welcome Home Gardner Residents? N.C. requires all state agencies to get three bidders for a project. Of those three bidders, the state chooses the lowest bidder. Webster Environmental Inc. was the company con­ tracted to remove the asbestos from Justice Hall. When asked about the delay, Pris Webster, co-owner week. Two stipulations apply to the voting process. Before the vote, each of the RSA and Resident Life staffs will provide educational programs addressing issues relevant to the vote. Also, in each residencehall, two-thirds of the students must participate in the vote, and two-thirds of those voting must agree on a single option. If the two-thirds requirement isn't met, the most restrictive option on each ballot prevails. BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR While many students new to Appalachian begin to learn about the campus, newly-appointed chancellor, Dr. FrancisT. Borkowski isalsoacquiringafeelforthe University. Borkowski was approved as Appalachian's chan­ cellor by the N.C. Board of Governors on May 14 after extensive interviews with the Appalachiansearch com­ mittee and UNC system president C.D. Spangler. He replaced Dr. John Thomas, who was Appalachian's chancellor for 14 years. When asked about his goal for Appalachian, Borkowski replied simply, "to make Appalachian a nationally recognized university by the turn of the century." First Borkowski must address a variety of issues facing the University. These issues range from multiculturalism among students, faculty and administra­ tion to the school's rapid expansion.

The commercial was part of a promotion for the Washington State Egg Commission and was designed by Evans/Kraft Inc., whose spokesperson said it was supposed to be taken humorously. According to a Panhellinic advisor, the radio ad depicted a rush party for a fictional "Alpha Omincron Kappa" with "brain-dead" women •flaking comments such as "I love your dress!" and Tour hair is so cute!"

TUESDAY 24 AUGUST 1993 Photo by Keith Jackson Dr. Francis T. Borkowski North Carolina digs deeper into ASU students' pockets BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR Students must now dig deeper into their pockets this year to pay for school because of a $22 increase in tuition, a $173 increase in fees and a $50 increase for room rental, as well as increases in both the standard and low meal options. The NC General Assembly recently approved a tuition increase of approximately three percent for in­ state students. This increase adds $22 to tuition, ' which now costs $740 for in-state students. Out-ofstate students will pay approximately $365 more in tuition this year. The NC Board of Governors approved Appalachian's proposed fee increases,adding $173 to $343, depending on housing and meal option. A breakdown of Appalachian's fees and their in­ creases is as follows: • $50 education and technology fee—This new fee was mandated by the state and will replace most class fees. For example, this fee will cover the cost of supplies for an art course which might have previ­ ously required an additional charge. It also precludes a $15 fee per semester to use computer labs. • $40 increase in atheletic fee—The total fee is now $142. • $37 increase in health services fee—The total fee is $125. • $46 increasein student activities fee—This fee covers several different areas: -$24.98 increase in educational and recreational pro­ grams fee for a total of $93.48. -no increase in intramurals fee for a total of $1.50. -no increase in gym fee for a total of $7.50. -no increase in transcript fee for a total of $3. -$2.38 increase in transportation fee for a total of $12.38. -$5.95 assessed as a new cultural affairs fee. -$12.69 increase in student union fee for a total of $83.69. The total student activities fee is $209. Also included on students' bills is $192.50 for indebtedness fees. This covers bonds the University has taken for facilities such as the Student Union and the Student and Health Services Facility. Also included in on-campus students' bills is a $50 increase in room charges, bringing the total cost of room rental to $1,420 per year. Board was increased $120 for a total cost of $1,120. The $120 comes from an increase in the standard meal option to $560. A lower option of $475 is available for sophomores, juniors and seniors. Fresh­ men must purchase the standard option. The indebtedness fee of 192.50, the $209 student activities fee, the $125 health services fee, the $142 atheletics fee and the $50 educational and technology fee total $718.50. Another of Boikowski's accomplishments at USF was an increase in donations to the University. Borkowski's tenure at South Florida was marked by some controversy, specifically by accusations that Borkowski and the University tried to cover up a rape case involving star basketball player, Marvin Taylor. When asked about the area in which he would focus Appalachian's growth, Borkowski did not reply with a specific area, but said that he was concerned more about the substance of programs than program growth. "I am more worried about the heart and soul of the curriculum. We should be careful in choosing new programs," said Borkowski. "We can't be all things to everyone." Borkowski said he would like to broaden the university's financial support With so many Appala­ chian alumni moving intoleadership positions, there are plenty of resources, according to Boikowski. He said that lobbying state legislators is also an integral part of Uni­ versity fundraising. Borkowski said he is sympathetic to issues facing the To gain a better understanding of the University's role and operations, Borkowski has been meeting with Appalachian's administrators and faculty as well as student and community leaders. Meeting studentsis the"fun" part of thechancellor's job, Borkowski said. He plans on attending many functions and emphasized that he will be very acces­ sible to students. He added that he welcomes invita­ tions from campus clubs and organizations. Borkowski came to Appalachian from University of South Florida where he was president of the Univer­ sity. USF has an enrollment of approximately 34,000 students. It offers a variety of doctoral programs and has a medical school. Appalachian, whose primary mission is to be a teaching institution, has an enrollment of approxi­ mately 11,500 students. Boikowski said that his biggest accomplishment at South Florida was the restructuring of the undergradu­ ate curriculum to incorporate ethics and values into all courses. The new curriculum also addresses ethnic issues with the goal of creating an understanding of different cultures. faculty. "I am really bothered by the lack of resources for the faculty," said Borkowski. "I think the state is taking advantage of our faculty." He was especially critical of our faculty's low salaries. Boikowski stressed the importance of passing the upcoming bond referendum. This bond will provide money to construct a math/science building and an aca­ demic support building.

Boikowski also said that Appalachian should remain aware of its role as a liberal arts college and incorporate a wider variety of classes into departmental require­ ments.

Fence surrounds east campus Access to student union limited to west entrance BY TERRIE BENTLEY REPORTER Students will have a long walk ahead of them if they plan on going to Plemmons Student Union from the east side of campus this year. A fence has been installed around the student union consrtuction area. It blocks off the front of the building as well as the east entrances. The fence also blocks off access to the Cone/Coffey parking lot. Clyde Robbins, Associate Vice Chancellorfor Physi­ cal Operations, said there was "a big need to block access for liability (reasons)." The fence covers such a large area, he said, because the "existing student union has to be renovated." "Is it necessary to block off the whole side when they are only working on one area?" asked David Mann, junior. "It takes away from an area where students hang out." The fence is scheduled to be in place for approximately one year and eight months. Though construction ison schedule, Robbins said that the project began six months laterthan originally planned, due to delays in the approval stages. To deal with the parking crunch this past weekend, the University hired an outside parking management com pany. Usually, assistance outside of the University is not needed. �1 HK APPALACH'AN, TUESDAY 24 AUGUST 1993, PAGE 2 State law reverses strict smoking policy TERRIE BENTLEY REPORTER BY DAWN MCGUIRE NEWS EDITOR designated areas. Appalachian won t be able to implement campuswide smoking restrictions as planned, due to a bill passed by the N.C. General Assembly. The bill requires that local governments set aside 25% of public building space for smokers. This pre­ vents a University policy from taking effect this semes­ ter. The policy was based on a Faculty Senate resolu­ tion calling for a complete ban on smoking in all university buildings and vehicles. Graduate student Derek Meyn says.'T think the change isgreat. I agree with having designated areas for us to smoke in because smokers have rights too." The Faculty Senate resolution banned smoking in all buildings and vehicles except for designated guest rooms in the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center, residence hall rooms, Hawksbill Pub, and Legends. The policy came about after a committee composed of faculty, staff, students, smokers, and nonsmokers speent a year studying theissue of second hand smoke. The committee looked at the entire campus," said Susan Stamper, coordinator of the University's health promotion program. uWe feel we surveyed the entire campus population as well as we could." The committee surveyed 725 persons. Of these, 54% favored a complete smoking ban, and an addi­ tional 31% wanted to ban smoking except in carefully Student Government prepares to tackle platform According to Derek Traughber,senior, "The state's policy is unfair. I'm allergic to smoke and also every­ thing is moving up in technology and the smoke tends to destroy these items." As this year begins the students at Appalachian State University will be represented by a new student govern­ ment. This organization will be responsible for being the students' link to the administration. The committee alsolooked at a 1991 report from the The president of theStudent Government Association National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health this yearis J.D. Adams.

SGA also offers many ways for students to get in­ volved in the governmental system at Appaalachian. Many students paticipate through the Student Senate. There are two senators from each Residence Hall and a total of 39 off-campus senators. Nomination forms for off-campus students will be distributed in the SGA offices. Forms will also be available in residence hall lobbies. All forms must be returned by September 7. A second way for students to get involved is to be placed on University committees.These committees range from Traffic and Safety to Advisory Councils for Resi­ dence Life. If a student is interested in joining a Univer­ sity committee they should stop by the SGA offices to pick up an application. Some of the majorprojects that this year's SGA plans to hold are a "Plant-A-Tree" campaign with clubs and organizations, an "Adopt a Campus Program," and a SGA Newsletter to provide a link of communication between students and SGA. The SGA cabinet, which still has to be confirmed by senate, consists of 13 members, excluding the president and vice president. The chief of staff, Brian Stanley, is responsible for managing the day to day activities of SGA. He is also the chief advisor to the SGA president.

"I tell parents not to even look at completed prefer­ ences cards," he said. • Avoid rooming with a friend. A roommate situation can put a stress on the friendship, and they may not know the other's living habits. • Enter the roommate relationship with a posi­ tive attitude. Students need to be flexible and open to different ideas. If you're positive, your roommate mayreactthesameway.Theinverse also applies, Kneser said: If you're negative, your roommate may pick up on those vibes and act accordingly. • Avoid conflict before it happens. Talk about issues that could cause problems, such as hav­ ing friends over or attitudes about sharing be­ longings. Instead of letting negative feelings build, talk about the problem at the first sign. "If things get to an impasse, get an impartial observer to help mediate," Kneser said. He said there must be give and take with roommates. "I hear about people who can't stand going back to their room," he said. "The ones I hear about are roommates whoare disre­ spectful, have bad social and living habits or personal hygiene, which all can affect people in many negative ways." Salch, at the University of Maine, said most of the institution's doims are not divided by race or interest, but there is one hall that has a floor for science majors, and the school is experimenting with a section for engineering majors.

"Graduated," I thought to myself. It had been a busy day, thousands of people driving iund, ferrying families and graduates to ceremonies, dents packing up and moving out, tourists baffled by general confusion. It wasn't hard to get that sense of of the possibilities and uncertainties new graduates I wondered what the horn-blower was going to do xt. "Now what?" is a question frequently asked by ent graduates. After four years, a lot of people are left th this strange, empty feeling. When asked, "what are u going to do next?" instead of talking about careers, I ar people say things like, "Oh, I've gotten a job for the mmer at a camp/restaurant/grocery store while I look • something permanent," or "I'm going to graduate 100I," or often, "Who knows?" Most of us are heading for service jobs, which are coming less and less adequately paid and increasingly stable. Welcome to the 90's. Welcome to the service onomy. There are all sorts of reasons to get a college degree, nging from simple economics to personal growth. On t economic end of things, there won'tbe much goingfor when we graduate. Over the past ten years, we have seen a lot of jobs appear forever. There has been a decline in financial 1, an increase in student loans, and increasing costs of ending college. Our own legislature is currently conleringadraconian measure forcing students—even those tting themselves through school—to either finish in ar years or face the penalty of tuition increases. The ;ionale for this measure is that students who take longer in four years tograduate are costing thesystem. Saddled th student loan debt after we graduate, it will be almost possible for us to make investments in things like uses and families.

Calling an unemployed poor man lazy is often a case of ignoring the realities of the job market,and, perhaps, failing toconsider the lack of access to educational opportunities and infor­ mation. Kll1C m Labeling a generation living in an increasingly mili­ tarized, polluted and repressive society as "apathetic" or "slack" is ignoring decades of economic mismanagement, social discrimination, declining educational opportuni­ ties, and shrinking economic resources. Those of us now attending universities have the obligation to expose ourselves to diverse ideas and skills so that we may begin to direct the development of our society and culture, rather than passively accept thestatus quo, and the labels passed down to us. A university, if used to best advantage, is a wonderful place for students to expand their range of experiences and abilities. Passive participation without challenging either ourselves or those around us will do little beyond getting us pieces of paper in exchange for a four-year time investment certifying the ability to show up on time, follow orders or cheat effi­ ciently. Believe it or not—our success and survival depend on much more than the right clothes and a GPA. Woodstock, and later the nihilism and narcissism that characterized the seventies and eighties. We're now left with an incredible concentration of wealth held by corporations that have only grown increas­ ingly larger and more powerful during the past two de­ cades.

Our air, land, water and bodies are becom­ ing ever more polluted....all of this dumped on us by preceding generations of short-sighted people who now justify their position and our condition with the term "slacker." In recent decades, social researchers have taken a new lassroom Etiquette 101: Whiners Beware BY DAVID HUGHES COMMENTARY EDITOR I think most students can remember a particular class, a certain teacher that they simply did not like, during ir years of involvement in the educational system. In t, it seems natural to me that because of the great ersity of personalities and interests out there, it is vitable that sooner or later, a student will find some iflict with a particular professor's communication style, approach to the subject matter. I have witnessed in lost every college level class I have ever attended, that re is at least one student in every class who simply does like the course for some reason or another. I have taken random classes just for fun at North olina's flagship university at Chapel Hill,and others at State. I have endured the over-crowded lecture hall, 'A with a mixed bag of receptive students, some of )m are eagerly hanging onto the professor's every 'd. Other students couldn't care less, hence they leave y. draw pictures or simply skip class altogether...To lents at Appalachian this should be a familiar picture. Throughout the years of attending classes at several 'ersities, I have been on both sides of this interest issue, re have been times when I felt a complete and pure lection with the message my professor was attempttoconvey. During those times, my mind felt sharp and r> my blood seemed to flow a little more smoothly and synapses were firing like the engine of a finely tuned ^ri- However, I have also been completely disinterd in some courses, either bored by the subject matter, y the droning of my professor's poor presentation. At e times I have done my share of doodling, practiced t've writing, and I have cut too many classes. In all honesty, I have had only one course at AppalaII that left me completely disinterested. (Graduate lents are not allowed to skip class, so I created some 'y intricate sketches.) It was clear to me that my essor approached his job with little interest, and efore invested little energy or thought into organizaand preparation of his lectures. An attitude of such Merest is not appropriate for any professor; to remedy Problem, I would prescribe a leave of absence, and laPs two years of work in used car sales for this ridual to help put that academic attitude back into Pective. It would be very unfair to judge this entire university on the behavior of this individual and that is hnly not my intention. I have completed 24 hours of luate course work at Appalachian, and am completely led with the level of professionalism exhibited by faculty. Despite a bad experience with one class, the r seven classes and professors have been among the w'th whom I have ever had the privilege to study. The student/teacher ratio at Appalachian is also much " supportive of the learning process than at many highly acclaimed, larger universities. (The university's office of Institutional Research reports that the current ratio is 16.4 to 1, this figure including both the under­ graduate and graduate colleges.) Thus, because a student gets more personal attention from the faculty at Appala­ chian, it can be argued that our students get a better value for their hard-earned tuition and fees dollars than at other institutions. Something I believe to be very destructive to the learning process however, is the constant complaining of one student, or perhaps several students, who are inter­ ested in neither the subject matter, nor the presentation of it I have repeatedly heard statements such as, "I'm not getting my money's worth out of this class", or "I hate going to that class." When one person expresses misery and bitterness regarding a class, several others who might otherwise never find fault with the class begin to chime in and complain as well. Generally, these lateblooming complainers have only marginal interest in the subject matter, and can easily be converted to the cornplainer camp, but they might just as easily have been content without exposure to the negative feelings. Misery loves company, as they say. I have witnessed this process many times. Often at some point, the entire class is suddenly exposed to a level of negativity that can truly impede the progress of the entire group. I understand that not every student will find every class fascinating, but I get frus­ trated when I feel my synapses firing efficiently, in a groove with the subject and presentation, while some unhappy person is incessantly chirping in my ear about his or her misery. My mother taught me that "if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all." The education experience cuts far deeper than the obvious mechanics of taking classes and making certain grades. Even in the one course at Appalachian with which I found considerable fault, there were still opportunities to learn lessons about life, responsibility, passion, profes­ sionalism, and self-motivation. We learn by example. This idea implies that there are both good and bad ex­ amples in the real world, and the bad examples exist to demonstrate to us how things ought not to be. We will all have some course whose structure or professorial ap­ proach just is not presented in a manner compatible with our individual learning styles. But let us all try to not ruin the opportunity for our classmates who are excited about that same material. If the majority of any class agrees that something is drastically wrong with the mechanics or presentation of a course, then the entire class should confront the professor about the problem. If the problem is not resolved, then the matter should be brought to the attention of the department head. But if many of the students generally seem to enjoy the class, and the source of dissatisfaction can be identi­ fied as an individual's lack of interest in thesubject matter, then that person should do everyone a favor and instead of whining, practice some drawing, write poetry, or review notes for another class. The education process leaves precious little room for wasted time, and certainly, none of us want to feel that our money is being wasted on fruitless endeavors. Thus, we should all work hard to ensure that our time is used to its fullest, even if a given situation is not ideal. It is called "self-motivation"... look into it PUBIS SE FiPST. pi N P A p 0 u IT I <-* <•; it by LT. IPe&Q'u'Oe&G, I 5 S Ofc •yoo C * ll I E f TIGM, | l o » ' c t. o n A r*t \ or ^ I fSgoot.

Our university is wrestling with issues of direction, mission and leadership. Even as the university's leadership is being shifted into new hands, Appalachian is being pushed by forces within the university commuhity as well as by forces from outside. Different factions have different expectations of the university; obviously, Appalachian can­ not be all things. Dr. Borkowski now has the responsibilities of evaluating the forces impact­ ing the university, balancing those forces and directing Appalachian along the path that will best benefit our community. We all owe him our support as he takes on this difficult task. Traditionally, one of Appalachian's strengths has been attention to students; this was a par­ ticular matterof pride for our school only a few years ago. This personal touch has been main­ tained through faculty accessibility, relatively small classes, strong advising programs and student support services. During recent years, this attention to students has moved to a lower position on the university's list of priorities. Classes are larger. Faculty are becoming less available, particularly in some departments. The university's recent emphasis on faculty research has pressured faculty to spend more time getting published and less time focusing on their teach­ ing responsibilities. This shift in focus becomes particularly evi­ dent when examining the ambitions of Appalachian's students. In recent years, student ambition has moved appreciably from "getting an education" to "getting a degree"—often stu­ dents come to Appalachian not with hopes of reachingtheirfull potential as individuals, but to participate in a paper chase, thoughtlessly pur­ suing a degree. This change in perspective be­ comes most apparent when examining student attitudes regarding general college requirements. These classes have come to be viewed by stu­ dents as hurdles and barriers, not learning op­ portunities. We should all be grateful that our new chancellor promises to focus much-needed attention on improving and emphasizing Appalachian's core curriculum. Perhaps our faculty can assist Dr. Borkowski in his effort by directing renewed enthusiasm into the presenta­ tion of material in the "dreaded-though-they shouldn't-be" required classes. Students should be encouraged to pursue diverse interests by choosing electives in a vari­ ety of departments. In our increasingly multi­ cultural society, individuals who possess inter­ disciplinary perspectives or a well-rounded edu­ cational background are becoming increasingly valuable to employers. Students, it might not be a bad idea to get that philosophy, psychology or English minor to accompany that business de­ gree. While Appalachian will surely miss Dr. Tho­ mas' strong leadership, the entire university community will benefit not only from Dr. Borkowski's reaffirmation of Appalachian's educational mission, but from his perspective, which is unique in our community.

ALBERT Hurail* BY DR. ALBERT HUGHES GUEST FACULTY COLUMNIST During the summer, while you were out of school doing whatever you did, t ere wt re a few newspaper reports comparing university salaries among our sister institutions. As you might imagine, the articles were not completely accurate^Again, a study in the ignorance of some journalists.)

Thus, when salary raise money is distributed by the state's central administration, Appalachian gets one lumpsum that must be shared by all.

The stress that the ambitious over-achievers of the 80'sexperienced, ruined families,drove many corporate heads to become coke heads, and is the same stress that many young adults fear today. As Generation X prepares to choose their careers and move into the work force, we are reminded of the 80's and shudder in fear Many would regard this as a slacker's excuse to getting out of work. In reality this is a potent, mainly subconscious,force in many people's lives How many times have we all said "I will NEVER grow up to be like my parents"? That is a simple truth. Many of us watched our parents dig their own graves with a shovel called stress, and we do not want to go through the same experience. These people that many label slackers quite possibly just want a life completely different from what their parents had. The very values that today's slackers cultivate are different from those of previous generations, tending more toward personal freedom and personal growth and away from corporate advancement and financial gain. Slackers are not aimless in their ideological pursuits. In fact, I would call this group conscious slackers," because they actively^hoose to reject the L o Across from B.

The slacker movement has been deemed "lazy" and slackers by definition only have time for activities like self-exploration, music, art, and so forth . These same people thus have the aptitude to become great social workers musicians, and artists.

These people, quite frankly, are sick of it all. Sick of the trickle-down economics that may have ruined their parents' lives, sick of the unending abuse of our ecosystems, sick of watching hatred explosions like those in L.A. and Bosnia. This generation may be having a collective nervous breakdown. There is only so much personal and societal deterioration a person can handle before he or she snaps! Many people have snapped and decided not to take part in the lifestyles that they fear. Call it laziness if you must, but it seems to me to be a natural human reaction to something that we fear. A second groupof "slackers"also exists. These are the minorities,the poor , the uneducated. These people had no choice but to be what society calls a slacker. Due to socio-economic reasons these people must "leech" off the government. Now again, people will say "If they had any ambition, they could rise above their conditions." However, as nice as that sounds, it just does not happen. Why do you think so few minorities"rise above"? Because they were lazy?—wrong. Sadly, many minorities are not given the opportunity to rise above in our society and culture. Prejudice is alive and well in our country and it iscreating great rifts between people along lines of race, religion, nationality, and gender. Thus, there is societal pressure that helps produce this generation of slackers.

Maybe u are here to develop necessary skills for a future career, or to prepare urself for a job which holds monetary reward and prestige. It is possible that u simply want to develop a better understanding of yourself and the world ,und you. Perhaps you do not know why you are here, but you were couraged to attend and it somehow seemed the right thing to do. For whatever reason u came, welcome to Appalachian! Now that you are here, the challenge is to „eive as complete an education as possible. Jt what is a "complete education?" Sure, rinalachian hasa fine reputation, but this doesn't can that your role here is to passively consume e facts and information shared by faculty and iff By approaching college in this way, you ght get a degree, but you surely will not get omplete education. For this, it is essential t you engage yourself actively in learning PLEBES >rtunities. Academically, this means to take from your not only what your instructors deem portant, but what may be beneficial for you to ow. Ask questions. Discuss perspectives ith classmates. Meet with your instructors ,ng office hours to explore course topics in ,re detail. Reflect seriously upon yourassignents, finding ways in which they can help you about yourself. Thisactiveapproachtothe oom will bring you more knowledge, and lour serious commitment will most likely result in higher grades. Socially, your options are endless. The temp- Itions to party with friends, visit theBlue Ridge •arkway, take in a meal off-campus or just atch a video are justified desires. Still, many udents become addicted to these and other •isure opportunities to the point of not taking their academics seriously, ortunately, both a strong social life and a serious academic commitment can ie achieved, if you learn how to prioritize, and exercise self-discipline. To gain as much as possible from Appalachian, academic pursuits and eisure activities must be balanced with another crucial area; extracurricular ictivities. Many graduates leave Appalachian believing that they learned more rom this area than from any other. Opportunities exist for every student... Campus Resident Student Association (CRS A) plan programs and activities in the halls,and are involved in improving living conditions for all residents. J ust go toa meeting,and you will be surprised at the many opportunities your RSA will offer you. Within your hall, please get to know your floor and hall communities. Meet other residents, even if at first they seem very different from yourself. Strive to understand differences, and not make assumptions. You will be surprised at how much you share in common with your neighbors, and at how much you can learn from them. While taking in an education, why not give something back to Appalachian and Boone while you are here, (besides your money)? Visit the Appalachian and the Community Together (ACT) office in the student union. There, you can be linked with volunteers from around the area. Ace ALL College couAj'E? TtffcotfcH Another simple way to help is to recycle. Bins exist throughout campus for collection of glass, aluminum and paper products. When you recycle, IVS EASW JUST MOW UO<J|C Ace AH. make sure toclean and separate appropriate mate­ WVTVV coo*, at A pHPAJE YOOk TGVTS. AND ftgPeAT \T. rials. Otherwise, whole shipments of recyclable IrJ VOvJl Te*T|«tftC. sent from Appalachian will be rejected and thrown fH £ P _ S«^e P«DY away. wE I <3? jSKy Beyond the enjoyment you will receive from involvement in university groups and activities, the ways you will benefit Appalachian and Boone, think of how these activities will benefit you: By taking on leadership opportunities, you will develop important skills such as listening and communication, problem solving and decision making, asserti veness, delegation and others. You will also learn how to work with people very different from yourself. The development of these skills will help you gain self-confidence and will assist you in future endeavors, whether jobs or relationships. Hopefully, this column has helped you to real­ ize the true scope of opportunities available to you at Appalachian. Remember, though, that if you are having problems adjusting to college life, or need some extra support in any way, just call on While here, let your voice be heard! Every year, students enact legislation our faculty and staff. We are here to help! The opportunities on campus and through the Student Government Association (SGA) which affects us all. The the support you will receive to encounter them successfully give Appalachian university is here to meet your needs, so if you disagree with something that's its strong reputation. Now, it's up to you to take advantage. I wish you the best happening on campus, express your opinion. There'sagood chance others will of luck in your pursuit of a complete education. For instance, you may wish to involve yourself in one of Appalachian's many student organizations. Groups range from fraternities and sororities to honoraries and organizations affiliated with specific academic majors. You can find groups that plan campus activities and programs, and others that provide advocacy and support for students who are challenged by being different in some way from the majority. Keep your eyes on bulletin boards or call the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership for specific groups and meeting times. by LT, Norton AAEMoRl Z. ATI ON! agree with what you have to say. It is also important that you are active within your living environment— your residence hall. Your hall's Resident Student Association (RSA), and the Gary Hartz is an Area Coordinator in the office of residence life and a lecturer in the department of Interdisciplinary Studies.

Big Slackers: A critical vie Having been able to accomplish nothing of tangible value or of real substance, a group of individuals from —r our generation have chosen to disunguish themselves by calling attenuon to their collective ability to elevate laziness to an art form. Never before in the his tory of our country has a group of young people wasted so many oppor­ tunities. Following in an American tradition that is perhaps even older than America herself, slackers are a new breed of rebel. America has always embraced rebels, even the tragic ones, i such as James Dean, who ascended to perma­ nent godlike status the instant he crashed his Porsche. Dean was the original rebel without a cause, and America loved him anyway—and loves him still. Can America love the slacker, the rebel of the nineties, the Rebel With­ out A Clue? Boone, North Caro­ lina is a Slacker Haven. A walk down King Street practically any time will introduce you to Career Slackers, Slacker Apprentices, and Slacker Wanna-Bes. Career Slackers are those indi­ viduals who have for years chosen to remain non-productive, instead opt­ ing to burden the working segment of our society by sponging money from our government while spending their days bumming cups of coffee, beers, cigarettes and "spare change." Apprentice Slackers are fre­ quently college drop-outs who are learning new and exciting ways to abuse our government's too-gener­ ous entitlement programs.

Well, kind of a new album. Earlier this year, the Velvet Underground reunited, after a series of tenative moves—an impromptu Paris '91 gig, a de facto reunion on Mo Tucker's 1991 solo album, a Lou Reed-John Cale collaboration called Songs for Delia (a 1990 tribute to the late Andy Warhol)— to do a brief European tour, pri­ marily for the purpose of "fun," according to Lou Reed, although opening on selected dates of U2's summer tour of the continent was a secondary purpose. The Velvets' history is a mat­ ter of rock-n-roll myth and leg­ end. The only American history of the group's existance, the meiculous Up-Tight: The Velvet Underground Story (1984, Quill Books) slipped out of print three fears ago, al though European cop­ es can be obtained, and numerous Hher Europe-only histories are still "Print.

Punk and new wave acts—the Clash, Television, Blondie, Talk­ ing Heads, the Cars, the Psychedelic Furs, the Pretenders, REM, and dozens of others began to mention the influenceof the Velvet Under­ ground on the development of their own sounds. By the mid 1980s, the long out-of-print Velvet Under­ ground releases were becoming highly sought-after collector's items. Respond­ ing to public pressure. Polygram Records decided to reissue the first three Velvets releases (Loaded and two live albums were still available on other labels). Two collections of unreleased material, mostly from 1968 and '69,showcased a large quantity of pop-ori­ ented and instrumental mate­ rial. The first of these collec­ tions, VU, became, in 1985, the first Velvet Underground release to hit Billboard Magazine's Top 100. VUand the second collection (An­ other View, 1986) both be­ came top ten college albums. The Velvets' legend con­ tinued to build with Lou Reed's creative and commer­ cial upswing through the80's. After years of poor record sales. Reed man­ aged to sneak three albums into the top fifty (New Sensations-1984, Mistrial-1986, New York-1989). Rumors of a possible Velvets' reunion began to circulate. The "new" Velvet Underground record­ ing, slated for release in mid-October will be a live disc of material taken from this year's European tour. Shows on the tour are re­ ported to have pushed beyond the two-hour mark fairly consistently, dusting off a large body of work for the enjoyment of a totally new audience. At least one new song (which we hope will find a home on the live album) was written and performed on the tour. This live release is an almost guaranteed success—the Velvets' first album finally went gold in 1987—and it will be interesting to see how the still-growing Velvet Underground following (myself included) responds to this new disc. To many of us who discovered this band after the fact, the idea of a Velvets reunion and a new release is almost too good to be true. The forthcoming live album continues a life that many of us assumed to be completed. I, for one, will be eagerly waiting on release day. A big sunken slope of clay and dirt, guarded by unfriendly-looking fences and board barricades is slowly shifted and packed into place by dump trucks, bulldozers and various other unidentifiable pieces of heavy machinery. Boulders are unearthed, and are hauled away. The severed roots of anony­ mous, forgotten bitsof foliage protrude from naked soil, jabbing at theair. Right now, this is the view from the balcony,around the top floor of the student union. Workman Hall is gone. The sidewalk running through the front of the site is mostly covered by dirt; the graffiti (I remember walking past a big "U2" and over some hip and strident radicalisms) has been obscured. Spray-painted slogans always lose their meanings, outliving whatever potential use­ fulness they mayor may not have had. Some­ thing big, new and shiny will replace them. The sound shuddering back up to the balcony is a constant industrial drone, punc­ tuated by the occasional thunder-like crash of debris tumbling into the metal bed of an eagerly waitingdumptruck. Theworkslowly moves forward, taking on its own rhythm— hmmmm, crash, truck drives off, new truck appears, hmmmm, crash, truck drives off. These thoughts come to me as I am work­ ing on the first paper, spending hours at the newspaper office on the top floor of the student union. To escape the sub-Arctic air conditioning, I periodically step out onto the balcony to watch what is going on at the construction site. Over the course of a few hours the side­ walk area is excavated. The middle of the site slowly flattens out. Sidewalk concrete shatters, and the balcony rumbles with the movements of the bulldozers - I can feel periodic tremorsrumbling through the build­ ing. Back in the office, earthquake and bridge-collapse fantasies began to circulate. Off the balcony, dust and exhaust fumes fill the air. The movie Harold and Maude contains a scene which is very similar to this solemn earth moving to which I have become privy. Harold and Maude, enjoying a quaint and placid lunch on a lofty perch on some con­ struction site, discuss and ponder the great mysteries of the cosmos. The death of a building, the turning of the earth, the noise and rhythm and chaos all take on a fascinat­ ing metaphysicalism. This is all hypnotic and interesting to some degree—strange that watching bull­ dozers shove hills of dirt around could ever be relaxing or entertaining. And I did have other, equally significantquestions. I left the building tograb some lunch, walking pastSt Luke's Episcopal Church over on College Street En route to King Street I noticed— as always—the appeal of this attractive and unassuming spot of relative tranquillity in the middle of an occasionally frenzied and constantly growing campus. What will hap­ pen to this building—and this small green space—now that it has been acquired by Appalachian? The university has (in the name of "progress") established a pattern of making construction/destruction decisions without consideration for aesthetics, tradi­ tion or community. Will this space become a place to park more cars, as did the former site of the Dougherty House, home of Appalachian's founders? Or could it instead become a place to slow down, take a break from the garbage of the day, escape from the heat reflecting from expanding plains of asphalt and con­ crete? Will future students watch from distant vantage points as dour earth movers shudder and lurch across yet another plot of land? Or will students and town residents have to suddenly scramble to assemble a "Save SL Luke's" comm ittee, caught near some hypo­ thetical last minute? To lose this fragile spot of shade, reflection and community history would be devastating. This is a small patch of land whose grace is amplified by the sterile power of i ts surroundings—surround­ ings whose impersonality would become obscured with the developmentof this space and the destruction of SL Luke's. See UNION page �Aii interview with Pete ReichL THE APPALACHIAN, TUESDAY 24 AUGUST 1993, PAGE 14 T, BY KRISTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR Dr. Pete Reichle takes his job a step further than simply teaching classes. This Associate Professor teaches classes in both the Interdis­ ciplinary Studies and Social Work depart­ ments and is also a friend and counselor to his students. "I enjoy being with the students," Reichle says. "I like listening to them, helping them, and watching them. I sometimes end up with students in a crisis and it's nice that I'm able to be there and help." Reichle has the ability to understand col­ lege students and often makes a crucial differ­ ence in their lives. In return, students seem to have an intense respect for him as well. In 1989, Reichle was nominated for ASUs Outstanding Teaching Award. To receive the award, nominees were required to write a letter describing why they should receive the honor. When Reichle refused to write a letter about himself, several of his students inter­ vened. "They knew I wouldn't write the letter about myself," Reichle said, "so my students wrote it for me. All I had to do was sign it." THIt T-, 2c fA'2 HEY, JOE! THAT BEER O f tooRS-WMY. IT'S THE COLOR o f U R I N E 1 HERE-TRY A BOTTLE Q E NEW CLEAR BEER! F - * • That year, Reichle won the award. Reichle teaches classes on human sexual­ ity, death and dying, and other social issues. He often incorporates unusual ways for stu­ dents to learn and express themselves in the classroom. For example, "music night" en­ courages students to share songs that are im­ portant to them. Each spring, Reichle also offers a class that studies the Hopi and Navajo communities. Students are able to accompany him on a retreat to Arizona to study Native American ways of life. "It's an opportunity to get to sacred places and be with spiritual people," Reichle says. 'The students are changed in some way when they come back, but they can't tell anyone about it because no one would understand." Reichle says that the trip to Arizona often attracts people who are "at a turning point" He says the students are "often wrestling with decisions and can become immersed in a different culture." Reichle earned his degrees from UNC Chapel Hill. He came to Appalachian 19 years ago after working at an institution spe­ cializing in children's psychological treat­ ment where he found himself working not only with children, but also with their parents. He was amazed at observing the process as W»»L» SAVVY T,MES. AOVECCAN EASILY CREATE A MARKET f o R U S N E C E S S I T Y .

We live day to day wondering how the rent will be paid and tearing open cards from home hoping Mom and Dad sent a few extra dollars. Who hasn't eaten cheap, soggy noodles for several days in a row just because they were among the least expensive items in the grocery store? Ironically, Boone has some of the best restaurants around. This leaves us with two choices: we can either wait for our visiting parents to take us to dinner, or we can find the best bargains at the local places to eat, for the times when the super value menu atTaco Bell just won't do. While some places, such as Klondike Cafe, make up their specials as they go along, other restaurants have set menu schedules to attract regular customers. The Boone Bagelry offers both breakfast and lunch specials. Chicken-wing lovers can truly appreciate the all-you-can-eat specials offered Monday through Saturday. Other specials that the Bagelry offers are written daily on a board in the restaurant Macado's has a specific list of specials for every day of the week. On Monday, "veggie" items are 50 cents off while Tuesday is the famous"HindyNight" The Hindenburg sand­ wich is a three-foot sub that normally costs $10.00. On Tuesdays the sandwich is avail­ able for $5.00. This is a true bargain since several people can split the meal. However, if you don't have quite the appetite for a Hindenburg, visit Macado's on Sunday. A dollar off of all appetizers should hit the spot.

Not that this is a dance -it lacks the requisite speed and minimalist vibe, but a very physical under­ standing of the importance of how a good beat influences and informs everything that goes on throughout Ekstasis, and in the rhythm department, the disc kicks major butt. The grooves here are intricate and international enough to feed—or free—the mind, but they are also capable of making you move—very important indeed. Throughout these intricately developed slices of groove-heavy internationalism, Skopelitis wisely avoids the flash guitar cul-de-sac in which many instrumental guitar releases tend to get lost. The songs on Ekstasis tend to slowly unfold or unravel, in washes of shimmering texture that manage to cover tre­ mendous amounts of sonic terrain through some notably subtle moves. Put simply, Skopelitis isa technical master who gets by on groove and intuition, and his work maintains its unique qualities through this trust in in­ stinct. Whether gliding through a kaleido­ scope of ghaitas - a Moroccan reed instrument (courtesy of Bachir Attar) or careening off of Jah Wobble's rubbery fun, the guitar work manages to remain interesting from start to finish - a rarity with guitar albums. Skopelitis' main weakness is a limited grasp of jazz (or rock) improvisation; these songs are a little more methodical than improvisational in their construction. Rather than risk clichd showoff solos, Skopelitis often lets the ensemble do it all. When listening, 1 get the impression that many of the spaces on this disc need to (or used to) have something going on in them. A few McLaughlinisms here or there would've given Skopelitis' personality a little more presence— Liebzeit, Wobble and At­ tar all steal the proverbial show ina numberof spots. Skopelitis should prob­ ably cut loose a little more often to help add a little more color to these grooves. However this is a fairly minor gripe. Ekstasis generally opens up a lot of new musical territory—the incorpora­ tion of international mu­ sical sounds regularly seen these day soften hasa shal­ low, quasi-new age flavor-of-the-month quality. Many excursions into 'world beat' (the market­ ing term) are overpowered by humorless, overly rev­ erential didacticism, and screaming pretentious­ ness—shades of "saving the exotics in the hot countries," whilst milk­ ing the same cultures for new and improved commercial mother lodes, and newer, more exotic varieties of new age sonic tranquiliz­ ers. On Ekstasis this is never the case—the western instrumentation powers thoroughly non-western musical arrangements, and the oomph obvious in the overpowering basslines that slink and lumber all over this disc are also to be found lurking in the festive reed ca­ cophonies and in the global polyrhythms that occasionally send the slowly unfolding soundscapes of Ekstasis spinning like a vor­ tex of sound straight out of the speakers. rnoto by Keith Jackson Belk Hall welcomes students BY KRJSTINE FORREST ASSISTANT DIVERSIONS EDITOR that "parents like the special attention—it's a special day for them."

Beez Wit The Remedy, the md grows steadily more dense and edgy; austere anti-psychedelia of Blahbludify lies the Maggot Brain-era Funkadelic ted at throughout this disc into a kind of rdless, digital-age literature. On hbludify (and a number of later tracks, to dealt with momentarily), the J. Beez sucjsfully experiment with a.chaotic kind of jirumental, vaguely socio-political satire— r&b stylings. These tracks, about halfway through the disc, camouflage their innova­ tions in more conventional structures: back­ ing vocal harmonies, measured lyrical intona­ tions, posf-Sly Stone percussive shifts, and major doses of humor. J. Beez' recent col­ laborations with ex P-Funk musicians (Bernie Worrell, Fred Wesley, Bootsy) and with Bill Laswell on the Material discThe Third Power may have instigated this loose and playful turn, but the Jungle Brothers also manage to balance humor, history and originality throughout J. Beez Wit The Remedy on their own, and they manage this very well. I'm In Love With Indica —playfully sub­ verting a nice variety of social norms in the process—features the most inventive and imaginative use of sampling on the disc. The source of the sample—Dirt by The Stooges (check out their Fun House for a wild ride) — is one of the more spectacular indictments of the traditional suburban American existence to have ever been committed to vinyl (oops-I mean aluminum), and here the Jungle Broth­ ers arrive at a similar point, albeit by follow­ ing a different route. Meanwhile, there is the sample, looped and repeated, sounding like some possessed siren all the way through Indica. With JB'sComin Through, the disc makes a hard turn back into the chaotic montage style of Blahbludify, with the addition of free style lyrics— the improvisation over a shifting backdrop of funk dissonance sug­ gests a hip-hop update of Sun Ra or Ornette Coleman, pushing the style farther into the avant-garde. The sound form here till the end is a series of dense slice-oflife sonic cut-and-paste jobs, cap­ turing in tremendous detail an al­ most infinite range of moods and, all layered together through each of the last few songs, abandoning traditional structures in favor of radical new forms. The mostly instrumental textures that pre­ dominate this end of the disc sug­ gest, in fleeting shards of sound, much of the history of AfricanAmerican music and culture dur­ ing the twentieth century. These tracks accomplish this feat with­ out imitating anything I've ever heard ('cept maybe Can or John Cage—ironic), and they come off like complex maps into a hypo­ thetical state of future funk. In a year already notable for a number of good hip-hop releases (check Digable Plan­ ets, The Goats' Tricks of the Shade, Basehead's Not in Kansas Anymore), J. Beez Wit The Remedy ups the artistic ante just a notch. Contrary to the opinions of the parental-advisory police who often continue to attack the genre (generally, to the exclusion of all other styles, including a number other styles with equal power and intent to offend, but with less ability or desire to inform), rap/ hip-hop continues to mature and develop, and to offer valid and intelligent opinions, as this disc ably demonstrates, beginning about ten seconds into the first track. Other releases— with new releases on the way from Termina­ tor X, A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul, the year is far from finished—will continue the trend. Continued from page 13 The impersonal environs would, of course, look quite a bit less impersonal if this were to occur, which could eventually become a between-the-lines objective. Maybe not All of this is conjecture, but I hope it is conjecture with a point. Admit­ tedly, I am a little fuzzy on the history of St Luke's (constructed in 1940), and the details surrounding Appalachian's recent purchase of the church (the University acquired it for 5200,400 this February). My reaction is somewhat personal; I enjoy the cool, tran­ quil and shady space. Music often drifts from the church's open windows to the ears of passersby. The building is a striking visual contrast, when compared to the func­ tional but not-especially-attractive buildings nearby: Whitener Hall, Annas Student Sup­ port Center, The Plemmons Student Union. Where the appearance of SL Luke's sug­ gests humanity, the look of nearby structures betray their functionality: hard angular lines, windows that may or may not open, box-like utilitarianism. St Luke's may not be hundreds of years old (53 to be precise), but something of the roots of this community (along with the natural envi­ ronment that accents and energizes this com­ munity) should remain standing, and steps to maintain and establish some kind of a historical identity before the threat of immi­ nent demise is looming on the horizon. Having witnessed, in recent years, the threat of residential development on the north face of Howard's Knob, the loss of the Dough­ erty house (formerly on Rivers Street), and the divisive debacle the proposed SAC be­ came, I don't think I'm being paranoid. When I graduate (and perhaps return to visit), on the most basic level I want to be able to come back and find something that might be recogniz­ able. If, in twenty years, this campus looks like the set from the movie Bladerunner, I will not be a happy camper. As I write this, the Student Union is shud­ dering as if a fault line is slipping away beneath the building; I half-expect to see terror-stricken staffers running through the halls, urging us to leave, please leave the building, and please leave as quickly as pos­ sible—before it's too late! Off to the left, the former staff parking lot between the post office and the former Work­ man Hall is disappearing; asphalt is crinkled accordion-like, it is being bulldozed into the crater that was recently Workman Hall. Meanwhile, St Luke's is still SL Luke's. It remains standing, although the church's con­ gregation will move to a new location early next year. Future uses of the building are still being developed, plans are unresolved; there are a variety of ideas floating around. Making this valuable structure a visible part of the history of this institution and of this commu­ nity should be the most prominent of those ideas. P. S.

The Mountaineers welcome the return of 361ettermen, including 11 starters, from last year's 7-5 squad that finislltd in a two-way tie for second place in the SoJ^hern Conference, made an appearrence in the NCAA I-AA playoffs, and finished the y£ar as the nation's 16th ranked team. Appalachian head coach Jerry Moore, now entering his fifth year at the helm, will have some big shoes to fill despite the return of many of last year's talent. Missing are 24 lettermen, 14 who were starters, and four players who have started in every game since coming to ASU. 'The players we lost take up consider­ able space in our record book," said Moore.

Not quite what you would expect to hear from a coach who has directed the program to seven consecutive SC champi­ onships. Not quite what you would expect to hear about a squad that returns not only the individual conference champion in senior * Carrie Hogg, but also all-conference per- j formers in senior Nicole Disher, junior J Dawn Wehrenberg and sophomoreSuzanne ; Black. "We could finish anywhere between • first and fourth in the league," Weaver said, j "A number of schools in the conference j have had excellent recruiting years and !

Weaver cited Furman, East Tennessee State, and Tennessee-Chattanooga as being the top contenders for the league title this season. "I know that they all have had good recruiting years because they got some of the girls that I was also looking at," Weaver said. "Some of them are also bringing in athletes from overseas on scholarships and it is sometimes tough tocompete with those who have the capability to buy talent." But don't count the Lady Mountain­ eers out of the race. After all, in cross country, it takes five solid performers to win a meet, and the Lady Apps certainly have the resources necessary. Leading the way for ASU will be Hogg SC women's cross country athlete of the year in 1992, Hogg has been dealing with a nagging spastic colon throughout the sum mer. According to Weaver, she remains determined, despite suffering from severe pain after running, and will train on a sched ule centered on biking and swimming to alleviate unnecessary pain. Disher and Wehrenberg will also be frontrunners for the Lady Mountaineers. "Being Nicole's senior year, I am ex pecting a lot of work from her. She came through for us last season and is capable of doing so once again," Weaver said. "Dawn isone of those dark force types. She really hasn't broken through yet as a Photo by Keith Jackson runner butshe has a lot of potential,"Weaver added. with the prospect of the upcoming season.

He has a lot of intensity and will be looked to to provide motivation and enthusiasm for the rest of the team," Fereshetian commented. Junior Jamie Griggs could also be a key for ASU this fall after a notable outdoor track season last year resulting in all-league selec­ tion. "Jamie could make a big impact," Fereshetian said. "He had a little bit of an injury but now he is doing okay and has a solid chance to do real well." Junior college transfer Chris Huffstickler will likely be a top five contender as well. Huffstickler, a junior, will be with the program for his first season after leaving Brevard Col­ lege where he was a junior college AilAmerican performer.

This season should continue to be filled with the success and intensity that hasstemmed from the conference in the past, as defending national champion Marshall is the preseason favorite to win the league, with The Citadel, Georgia Southern, Western Carolina, Furman and Appalachian State also showing possibilities of being strong frontrunners. Here's a quick look at the conference: Glenn Pedro, Chris Deaton, Trevor Thomas, and Will Brown will anchor the offense.

Tiffany Dean, a criminal justice ma­ jor, was selected as director of Moun­ taineer Escort. Adams said that Dean, who has no prior experience withSGA, was appointed because of her sensitiv­ ity to the students who use the service. "Since it is apparent that the univer­ sity is not going to assume operation of Mountaineer Escort, SGA must make it as efficient as possible. The main thing we need to do is keep it staffed and, if possible, extend the hours," said Dean. Current SGA senator Chip Baggett was appointed as administrative advi­ sor. This is a new position created by Adams. Adams said it would be a nonpaid position which would meet with the presidents of clubs and organiza­ tions once a month to inform them of SGA activities andbring theirconcerns to senate. Ray Paschal, currently a SGA sena­ tor, was appointed to the director of state affairs position. The director of state affairs acts as a liaison between SGA and state, local and federal gov­ ernment.

BRANCHEAR Staff Writer Construction to Union delayed See CABINET page 3 By KRISTIN LACIANO Appalachian Staff Writer Construction on the 55,000 square foot addition to Plemmons Student Union, originally slated to begin at the beginning of the Spring semester, has been delayed until as late as the end of June partly due to delays at the Depart­ ment of State construction in Raleigh. The delays in construction "have been through no fault of the university," ac­ cording to Dave Robertson, director of Student Programs. Because of a lack of construction in the state, the Depart- ment of State Construction has had more time to scrutinize the university's plans, according to Robertson. He feels the delays are mostly a result of ineffi­ ciency in Raleigh. One delay thatcannot beattributed to Raleigh is the fact that there were only two bids put out for the mechanical contracts on the student Union. Robertson explained that there are sev­ eral different contracts (electrical, plumbing, general construction, etc.) for each part of construction. For each contract, the state requires that there be three or more bids extended. If three bids are not made, the contract must be advertised again. As a result, all of the construction is held up. Robertson said that this is because they need to be sure that all of the bids for all of the contracts fall within the budget. Bids for the mechanical contracts will be opened today. Robertson said that all of the other contracts are closed. If enough bids are received, the archi­ tects have 30 days to notify the contrac­ tors. The contractors in turn have thirty days to begin work. That puts the start of construction at the end of June or beginning of July. See CONSTRUCTION page 3 The two finalists for Appalachian State University's next chancellor will meet with President C.D. Spangler of the UNC System next week before the final choice for ASU's top seat is made. ASU's Board of Trustees met last Friday in an executive session with members of the Chancellor's Search committee to hear their suggestions for the two names to be sent to Spangler and the UNC Board of Governors. According to Spangler, because the nomination was a personnel recom­ mendation, he, the Board of Trustees and members of theChancellor's Search Committee were"under no obligation" to comment. Spangler said the reason an announcement was not made on Tuesday as originally scheduled was to protect the candidates and their current institutions. "The theory behind the process is for these people that have good jobs,"said Spangler. After Spangler meets the candidates and questions their visions for ASU, he will send a single recommendation to the UNC Board of Governors. He said that ASU's chancellor is expected to be announced after May 14. Rumors circulating around campus say Dr. Paul Marion, President of the West Virginia system, and Dr. Francis Borkowski, President of the University of South Florida, are the twocandidates nominated by the board of trustees. r r o - ;ru- nel (esidents stay for drill IDANE PERRY Writer nts who were found still in tier residence hall after a fire drill C their I.D. cards confiscated for a f wd were given university violason Monday. xven if we were committing viola­ 's, I don't see how they can justify ®g our I.D.s from us,"said resident i Rusch. to I.D.s were taken at 10:30 a.m. "tkymomning. Violators were told 1 could pick up their I.D.s when the "shift R.A. came cm duty. J fWan stated that according to the *ial police report, 19 people failed Wuate the building. The fire de­ nt is very concerned about this but at this time no citations have been issued by the University Police. The drill was set off by a cooking procedure in the building according to Roy Tugman, Director of the Univer­ sity Police. Resident Assistants in the building said that the students would be written up for major violations since they failed to evacuate the building. Many students from Winkler have expressed disapproval of the drill since the firemen entered their rooms with­ out warning. "I think it is an invasion of privacy since they did not knock on our door before they entered our room, espe­ cially with the large number of people who slept through the alarm. It is not our fault if we sleep heavy and can not hear it," said sophomore resident Jeff Katowitz. Appalachian Photo by Karia Smith w Recycling Dorm rooms remodeled, lobbies combined bill passes By DANE PERRY Staff Writer By DAWN McGUIRE Assistant News Editor The Student Government Associa­ tion wrapped up its year Tuesday night at the last senate meeting presenting SGA awards, passing a recycling bill and honoring outgoing chancellor John Thomas by renaming the Senator of the Year award, the John ThomasSenator Polish "hector visits Page 5 ^ook back at foe year In sports > € 'n Riester review ^ge U I j:-:#:-#:1 ti - of the Year. Dan Gurley and Doug Duncan intro­ duced a special resolution asking that the Senator of the Year award be re­ named in honor of John Thomas'' ser­ vice, dedication and love for Appala­ chian State University." The resolution was approved an submitted with acclamation. The Senate also passed a bill calling for bins to be placed on campus for paper recycling during exams The GDS recycling service has alrea y agreed to provide and pick up the bins free of charge. _ f , Gurley also gave his end of the se­ mester state of affairs report, outlm.ng See SGA page 3 When next year begins students liv­ ing in Gardner and Coltrane will be looking forward to a new lobby and room changes. The two dorms have recently started a project to build a lobby that connects the dorms, and the rooms will be redone in a style similar to that of Bowie Hall. Two separate projects arebeing done by two separate contractorsat this time. The first project is going to make a lobby that connects both Gardner and Coltrane and create new entrances into the two dorms. The second project in­ volves all the rooms having new floor­ ing and ceilings as well as having the furniture movable except for the ward­ robe closets, according to Brad Reid, Director of Residence Life. Residence Life says that the new lobby will connect the two dorms but there will be two laundry rooms, two television lounges and two vending ar­ eas. In addition the dorms will stay as two separate dorms rather than com­ bining under one name. One of the biggest concerns at this time is whether or not the building will be safe and ready for students when they return for the fall semester. "The Gardner/Coltrane Lobby Reno­ vation construction is currently going on and the lobby will be opened in November of 1993 but will still be given access to the dorm in August when they return for classes," said Greg Langdon from Business Affairs. Langdon said the construction is ex­ pected to move quickly this summer once the students have left the build­ ings. The rooms are expected to be fin­ ished by the time students return in August. The rooms will be similar to Bowie Residence Hall in that they will have new fluorescent lighting, the beds will be bunkable and movable, and the wardrobes will be bolted in place.

Football At no other time has Yogi Bera's famous saying, "it ain't over 'till its over" been more true than when applied to this year's edition of Appalachian football. The Mountaineers came into the season as the defending Southern Conference champions and with high hopes of a repeat. After a 25-0 sobering at the hands of the Citadel for Appalachian's homecoming and a 16-13 heartbreaker to Furman, the Mountain­ eers stood at 2-2 in the SC with little hope of even making the division I-AA playoffs. But of all teams for the Apps to thank.

Robinson praised the play of Crosby and looks forward to more of (he same next season. "Angela is one of the premier players in the country and I am really eager to see what she docs in the future." Robinson alsonoted her excitement about the team's prospects for next year. "In addition to Angela we will have Shannon Spencer, Penny Roberson and Karolina Karlqvist so I think we should be strong among the top teams in the SC." Robinson assessed her team's late-season performance: "I thought we played really well in spurts, but we lost ourconfidence at the end of the season due to several close losses.

April 29. 1993 Continued from page 7 season. The team improved so much from the beginning of the season to the end. This was truly one of the most fun groups of players I have ever worked with." Baseball This past season in ASU baseball will go down in the books as one of the worst in school history. A 15-25 mark ties this year's club for second on the all-time losses list. Add to this 13 rainouts, eight "home" games being played off themountain at Granite Falls, a ten-game road losing streak to begin the season and two players dismissed from the team in mid-season, and you have all the ingredients for a truly wretched program. There were a few bright spots the team can look at, as they won five of their last seven games and nine of their last fifteen. And granted several of the losses at the beginning of the year game to such teams as Florida State, Clemson and South Carolina. And yes, the weather was a real detriment to the team's play. However, there are still elements of the team's play that were rather horrific. The team ERA was an astronomical 5.34 and the team batting average was a paltry .263. Were it not for a few shining individual performances, it could have been a lot worse. Kenny Osboume led the team with a respectable .344 batting average. Osboume was followed closely in the chase for the batting crown by Scorr McDaniel (.342) and Rich Livolsi (.340). Leadoff batter and CFWill Shellman also posted some fine numbers as Shellman led the team in hits with 46, runs with 36, total bases with 63 and stolen bases with 28. His 28 steals gave him ASU'sall-time single-season theft mark. Right fielder John Bonner, the only Mountaineer to start all 40 of ASU's contests during the regular season, led the team in RBl's with 28 and commit­ ted no errors in the regular season. Catcher Randy DeBruhl led the club in home runs with five but in the pro­ cess set new single-season and career strikeout records for ASU. On the hill. Matt Russell led the team with an ERA of 2.7 togo along with his team high (with reliever Steve Bronack) three wins. The Mountaineers have one last chance to redeem themselves this week­ end atthe SC Toumament inCharleston, SC but barring some unforseen miracle, next year's squad will have no place to go but up. Volleyball The Appalachian State volleyball team had a tremendous season over the past year. The Lady Mountaineers tore through the S.C., regular season schedule and finished with a 7-0 mark and the top seed in the conference tournament. "I am very proud of the girls for winning it (the regular season title)," said first-year head coach Dave Markland. "I am especially proud of them for winning it undefeated." The third time was the charm for ETSU, however, as they defeated the Lady Apps in the tournament after hav­ ing been beaten by them twice in the regular season. The loss denied Appalachian a chance to participate in the National Invitational Volleyball Championships and ended the college careers of six very valuable seniors, including Kim Nelson, Holly Shamburger, Rachel Wade, Joanne Myers, Sandra Love and Carla Andrews. Wrestling Appalachian's wrestling squad, with­ out star competitor, Donnell Rawls, fell in the SC tournament toTennesseeChattanooga by 3.75 points. Rawls, named Player of the year, was allowed to advance to NCAA National compe­ tition on an open bid after being diagnosed with the chicken pox. After the tournament, ASU Head Coach Paul Mance noted that Rawls did not have the chicken pox. In addition to Rawls,Victor Balmeceda, Melvin Crosby and Corey Creech all advanced tothe NCAA tour­ nament. The Mountaineers were regular sea­ son champions, recording defeats over nationally ranked squads including ACC powerhouse Clemson. Soccer The Mountaineer soccer squad fin­ ished at 10-10-1 this season including a win over top-seeded Furman in the SC tournament that advanced Appala­ chian to the final bracket before losing to Davidson who advanced to the NCAA Final Four. "We feel very good about the return­ ing players for next year. It will be a challenge because it is the first time that we will play a straight Division I schedule," ASU Head Coach Art Rex said. Men's Cross Country ASU's men's cross country squad finished second in the league this past season as they compiled 43 points be­ hind East Tennessee State's 23 points. Freshman Tommy Holland led Appa­ lachian, finishing fourth with a time of 25:30 followed by Todd Walters (sev­ enth at 26:10) and Billy Pemberton (eighth with 26:11). All three were named all-league. The Apps finished second at the North Carolina Colle­ giate Championships behind North Carolina-Chapel Hill with Walters lead­ ing the pack at 26:20 for ninth place. Holland was tenth at 26:22 and each of them was named all-state. The squad finished 13th at the NCAA District III Regionals with Pemberton leading the way at 49th place and Holland follow­ ing at 51SL Women's Cross Country The Lady Apps cpatured yet another SC title as they outdistanced second place Tennessee-Chattanooga and Furman by 31 points. Carrie Hogg captured the individual title witha 19:05 pace followed by Julie Cooper, in sec­ ond, at 19:10. In addition to Hogg and Cooper, Nicole Disher and Dawn Wehrenberg were named all-league for their top ten performances. The squad finished second in the North Carolina Collegiate Championship behind North Carolina-Chapel Hill with Disher lead­ ing the way finishing with an all-state time of 18:55. In the regionals, Hogg and Cooper were the only runners to finish inside the top 100 at 78th and 82nd respectively. Men's Indoor Track ASU's men's indoor track squad fin­ ished third in the league behind Virginia Military Institute and East Tennessee State. The Mountaineers was led by all-conference selectionLeander Watts who won the 55-meters with a time of 6.37. There were no other first place finishers for Appalachian State. Women's Indoor Track The Lady Apps continued their track dynasty as they captured their seventh straight indoor title behind the efforts of Performer of the Year Melissa Morrison. Morrison captured the 55meters, 55-meter hurdles, 200-meters, triple jump and finished second in the long jump. The squad outdistanced second place Western Carolina by 62 points.

The rugby team at Appalachian State finished with a loss at the Guilford Tournament to East Carolina Univer­ sity, 13-10 and Guilford College, 10-7. They also played an alumni game that was just for fun and lost that game 32-30 in three equal halves. "We gained a lot of respect through­ out the state," said clubpresident Kerry Putnam. "This is one of the best teams that I have seen at Appalachian at a long time." The judo c'ub will have three more matches this semester including Ft. Bragg on May 1, Charlotte on May 7 and Camp LeJeune on May 15.

Individuals who would like more in­ formation are encouraged to contact the intramural office at 262-2100 or drop by the office in therear of BroomeKirk Gym. Men's Outdoor Track The men's outdoor track squad has been led by the performance of ham­ mer throwers Rich Grant and Eric Roberts who have personal best throws of 174-5 and 168-10 respectively. . Jason Dalton and Watts have also been consistent performers for ASU as they clocked a respective 10.46 and 10.56 in the 100-meters to place first and second on the all-time records at Appalachian. Another steady performer for the Apps has been Alan Wicker who com­ petes in the 800-meiers and on the 4 X 800-meter relay squad. Wicker leads the league with a time of 1:53 in the 800-meters. The squad will defend their outdoor title this weekend as they host the SC Championships.

As a staff we will eventually all go different ways, but shared periences, both good and bad, form a bond that can never be broken. When we met to go to Washington D.C. last July, I must admit 1 was a little ivous. 1 had chosen astaff based on 20-minute interviews, but I really had no idea ho each of you were.

Go to grad school and become a professor - the ~~ir By ROBERT ROBERTSON Columnist The end of the Spring term is upon us and so much has happened since its beginning. Now's the time to reflect on where we've been and what we've done. 1.) The greatest propaganda campaign since WWII made slate news as Liquor by the Drink came up for public vole in January. Fears of higher crime, unfair competition, and probable strip joints aided the first defeat of such a referendum in N.C. Since then, other counties have followed suit and have voted to continue their ban on mixed drinks. The booths on campus featured the only heavy support for LBTD as the people of Boone swayed the vote to the negative and laid down their law. At least there's Blowing Rock and Banner Elk. They'll appreciate the business. 2.) A new president was sworn in during January as well. Love him or hate him, he's ours until *96. Since his first day in office he's done something unheard of in political circles — renege on cam­ paign promises, or did he? He never ruled out a tax increase, his stimulus package and its price tag were well publicized, and he never came out and told the people of Haiti "Come one, come all!** For the most part, the court's still out on Clinton's first report card. The public wants to hear his health care proposals first. 3.) Minority rights have been making headlines. The question of whether acknowledged gays should be allowed in the armed forces took the most attention. Clinton says yes, the military says no, and the public seems split on the issue of who their tax money should pay to defend our borders. The Black Cultural Center at Chapel Hill continues to hit roadblocks as compromises between the administration and students are non­ existent. One wants it built in the middle of campus while the other wants it in about the same approximate area but not to the exact inch. There's no telling where it may end up, if it's built at all. I'm still waiting for a Multicultural Center to be erected, but there isn't much demand for those these days. 4.) In court cases, three marines were acquitted here in North Carolina in the beating of a homo­ sexual. While in Los Angeles, to the disappoint­ ment of the media, two of the four officers in the federal version of the Rodney King trial were proclaimed guilty of violating King's civil rights. Justice is eventually served, given enough chances, so expect a similar case to develop concerning the three Marines in Wilmington. 3.) Arthur Ashe passed away in February. Rarely do people of Ashe's quality come along. He used his status in tennis to give attention to the struggle in South Africa against apartheid by going there himself to witness the atrocities. In the world of college sports his voice was heard slamming such figures as John Thompson of Georgetown and Jon Chancy of Temple for insinuating that black youths weren't smart enough to surpass Proposition 48 standards. It's sad that a disease such as AIDS would be needed for him to receive the recognition he deserved. May he rest in peace. 6.) In sports, Dallas won the Super Bowl, Carolina won the NCAA championship, and the Charlotte Hornets clinched their first play-off appearance ever. Appalachian said good-bye to the high-scoring, high-flying, Mr. Everything Billy Ross, who left behind numerous school records. The NBA might not be too far away. 7.) Toad the Wet Sprocket traveled to Varsity Gym in April, as the APPS program continues to attract great names. I have only one question for some of those who attended. Why do you insist on getting so flat-out, falling down, room spinning, butt drunk? A couple of beers for a nice buzz is cool but to be so intoxicated that you find yourself riding the rear of someone of the same sex that you don't even know is outrageous. Don't you want to recollect whether or not you actually liked, or even heard, the music? All in all you end up with a blank for the evening while ruining someone else's good time. If nothing other than a tank of rum will satisfy you, then sit at home with Toad the Wet Sprocket's CD. You won't be smashing anyone against (he stage or shoving others out of the way. 8.) This semester all students who will return in the Fall will receive new LD cards for the coming years. I know a lot of time and money went into this project, but I'm curious as to why the basic design had to change. We now have generic looking I.D.'s that look like every other schools. Who else had a full background and picture card with information typed on top like the our old ones. We now have the basic, tiny photo design on a striped background made up of what I'm assuming is gold and white. So much for being ourselves. 9.) Overall winter has been the talk of the town. The Blizzard of the Century hit and gave ASU probably its longest spring break ever. And here we are, a month into spring and snow has fallen thrice on the area. April 22 felt more like December 22. For the longest time it's been sun, rain, cold, and snow in no particular order. That's just one of the great things about going to school here in Boone, nothings predictable (except that rain, sleet, snow, or freezing wind, there's always one person in class with shorts on). 10.) Spring '93 is not only the last semester for various seniors but also for our own Chancellor John Thomas. May 4 has been named in his honor and many tears of good-bye will be soon to flow. The campus, as it is today, would not be the same if not for his guiding hand He's made his mistakes (as everyone does), but I for one want to thank him for the great many things he's done right. Chancel­ lor Thomas, may your future be as bright as your past. And the same goes for everyone else too. May your summer be hot enough to warm your winter bones and safe enough to insure your return come Fall, when Jack Frost and a whole new slew of collegiate experiences will be awaiting you. Peace, two fingers, and we're ouita here. pur president is leading America astray By RICKY WELBORN Guest Columnist With the election of Bill Clinton to the presidency of the United States, America has entered anew era. Clinton says that his administration is about change. It's about change all right. It's about firing all 100 U.S. attorneys in one stroke and sending the Justice De­ partment intoutter confusion. It's about pushing a radical gay agenda on a mili­ tary that is almost universally opposed to it It's about changing Washington gridlock into hammerlock by ignoring and alienating the Republicans in Con­ gress. It is not surprising that President Clinton's public opinion approval rat­ ing is the lowestof any president inU.S. history at this point in office. Clinton's liberal agenda could be the source of the early demise of his presi­ dency. Our president's position on the issues of homosexuality,school prayer, and abortion are contrary to sound bib­ lical doctrine as well as hundreds of years of American political and cul­ tural history. From the days of Colum­ bus it has been clear that America was built upon Christian foundations.

Since prayer was taken outof schools on June 25, 1962, homicide has risen 300 percent, suicide has risen 300 per­ cent, andteenage pregnancies ha ve risen 500 percent. Violent crime, drugs, and alcohol abuse all skyrocketed while grades dropped. The U.S. is now #1 in the world in violent crime, # 1 in volun­ tary abortions, #1 in divorce, #1 in teenage pregnancy, #1 in illegal drug use, and #2 in alcoholism. There are now 3 million crimes a day in our schools. 100,000 kids go to school every day with guns. 8,700 teachers are threatened a day. I think it might be a good idea to allow prayer back into the schools. It appears that Clinton is developing his agenda on abortion directly from the views of the National Abortion Rights Action League and Planned Par­ enthood. Clinton supports the deadly "freedom of choiceact" which says that there are no circumstances, either be­ fore or after viability, in which unborn life may be protected This act invali­ dates laws which give a husband the See PRESIDENT page 12 sneakers?

( Apptatrae Letters Continued from page 11 During the 1980's, 18.6 million jobs were created — an all time high. Economic opportunities for minorities increased dramatically during the 1980's. Black unemploy­ ment dropped by 9 percent. For the first time in this nation's history the middle class became the dominant segment in black America. The Reagan and Bush policy of "peace through strength" led to the end of the cold war. Four countries went communist during Carter's four years; under Reagan and Bush the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union became Russia. During the 1980's women's earnings, as a percentage of men's, rose from 60 percent in 1980 to 72 percent in 1990. Lycra, Spandex, and Supplex — made by those dastardly people at DuPont. Finally, all women, especially those determined to expose the hypocrisy of the Tour DuPont, should check their bras. There's a very good chance they're made with a DuPont fiber called Micropolyester. And unless your underwear is unbleached cotton held up with a string, chances are your panties aren't serving the environmental cause either.

This act takes away the right of women to receive the infor­ mation they need to make an informed decision concerning abortion and takes away laws that require parental notifi­ cation or consent The Freedom of Choice Act would require all U.S. citi­ zens to support abortions with their taxes. Clinton has ordered the Department of Health and Human Services to pro­ mote the U.S. testing, licensing, and manufacturing of RU-486, the French abortion pill that has already killed 70,000 unborn babies in France and England.

Clinton also overturned acrucialpro-lifepolicybyinsuringthat hundreds of millions of our U.S. tax dollars will go to organizations that promote the legalization of abortion in Africa, Latin America and other places, Clinton calls these "population control programs." Clinton and Gore have talked a lot about saving the ozone, the whales and the spotted owls. But they have turned their backs on innocent human babies. This country has taken an issue of life or death and disguised it as an issue of "rights" without any consideration for the well-being of the babies. As a result, 28 million babies have been killed in this country since abortion was legal- IF YOU DRINK DON'T DRILL* ized in 1973. It has been presumed that the abortion rate will grow much higher if the policies of our current administration are put into effect. This should not be allowed to happen. Matthew 18:14 says, "It is not the will of your Father which is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." Not realizing that they were forsaking biblical values and Christian heritage, the American people voted for change. In this election, we traded a belief in the sanctity of human life for abortion. We traded family values for homosexual "rights." We traded voluntary school prayer for an open value system. We cannot continue to deny the truthas revealed inGod'sWord and expect our nation to be blessed with prosperity.

The main focus of the march is to make the nation aware of the fact that gays and lesbians are in this nation and they arenot going anywhere, according to Surgeon. In the flyer there are seven major demands that are trying to be achieved. These are: 1) a civil rights bill and end to discrimination by slate and federal governments, 2) a massive increase in funding for AIDS research, 3) legisla­ tion to prevent discrimination in adop­ tion, foster care arid family diversity, 4) full and equal illusion in the educa­ tion system, 5) the right toreproductive freedom, 6) end to all forms of racial and ethical discrimination, and 7) an end to all discrimination and violent oppression based on actual orperceived sexual orientation. The march is the main event of the week and will occur on Sunday, April 25. This march is what the homosexual population hopeswill finally bring them into the civil rights amendments in the United States. There have been two previous marches in 1979 and 1987, but these marches were said to have been self-focuses and lacking moral credibility, according to an article in the March's newsletter. ills passed by faculty ould impact students DAWNMCGUIRE istant News Editor tculty senate passed three SGAMed bills Monday; a final grade Ml procedure, aproposal on student ivement in faculty searches and a posal on additional assignments ing the last week of classes.

Dr. Paul Marion and his wife Susan toured the campus and spoke to faculty and student leaders at Broyhill Inn and Conference Center. Marion's visit gave him the opportunity to visit numerous academic departments and learn about the university and commu­ nity. Dr. Marion is currently chancellorof the Slate College system of West Vir­ ginia. A native of Charlotte, he gradu­ ated from Davidson College in Coun­ seling and Psychology andobtained his doctorate from the University of Colo­ rado at Boulder. "I hope I will be able to use my North Carolina experience," he said. "1 think I can be very helpful to Appalachian State University as it competesin a very tight fiscal market with other institu­ tions in North Carolina to be sure that ASU gets its fair share of the stale resources." Marion said he was not looking for a new job at the time he discovered the opening at ASU. However his memo­ ries of Appalachian's university and community sparked an immediate in­ terest. "When I received the letter of nomi­ nation it took 30 seconds for us to turn it around and accept because ofour love for Appalachian," Marion said. Marion's admiration for ASU not only stems from his previous career contacts but through his wife as well. Susan Mariongraduated from ASU with degrees in elementary and music edu­ cation. "After 22 years it gave me a real thrill to see it (ASU) is just the same yet so different," Mrs. Marion said. "I would relish this role and give back to the community what it has given to me." At the age of 48, Dr. Marion said he has a lot of ideas and energies to chan­ nel into Appalachian State University. He senses the multicultural curriculum is being expanded to broaden the per­ spectives of contributions of cultural and ethnic groups. He said he would like to see a focus on an Interdiscipli­ nary Studies program oncultural diver­ sity. Marion said he would also like to see an expansion of the international stud­ ies program. "We're going to live in a global village," he said. "There's room for more international students at the undergraduate and graduate levels." Marion noted that the university seems to have a lot of needs. He said the See MARION page 6 degree and why states should invest in public education.

As part of their 30th class reunion, the class is asking Appalachian s coop­ i n C o l l e g e Page 3 eration in making theformer highschool a historical building. The Class of '63 is just beginning the process of declaring Chapell Wilson a historical building. Since the former high school isnow an AppalachianState owned building, the university must give the class permission to go ahead with the process. ASU officials are exploring the pro­ posal. The main obstacle to cooperat­ ing with the '63 Class is determining what restrictions the university would have to adhere to if Chapell Wilson is a historical building said Bob Snead, ex­ ecutive assistant to the chancellor. Snead will make a recommendation on whether to support the Class of '63 when he receives information of the restrictions involved. The chancellor will make the utlimate decision, said Snead. Hank Weaver.University Police and university task force member, said that the historical register requires approved buildings not be altered on the outside. With construction renovating the Chapell Wilson theater the back of the building will be altered. Construction will add a back entrance facing West Howard Street to the build­ ing. The front of the building will re­ main intact Weaver explained that the class' de­ sire to mark Chapell Wilson as a his­ torical building is inlinewith the Boone town comprehensive plan. The plan calls for an emphasison historical pres­ ervation under one of its 14 points. A working relationship between Appala­ chian and the town in future planning is also outlined in thecomprehensive plan. Chapell Wilson along with Smith Wright, D.D. Dougherty (the old li­ brary), and Founders Hall were built by the Works Progress Administration under Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal. Chapell Wilson was picked to be con­ sidered for thenational register because it is a WPA building, is an example of mountain architecture in the 1930s, and __rved as the town's only high school before its incorporation intothe univer­ sity. Several Appalachian students were able to stay in school during the thirties because of the four buildings'construc­ tion, explained Weaver. As part of the National Youth Administration, also under the New Deal, students worked on the buildings in a work study pro­ gram. Appalachian has no buildings listed on the historical register. The town of Boone has a void of historically listed buildings as well, added Weaver. Greeks collect over 8,000 canned foods for community fliwentarv By SUZI LANDIS News Editor a p i t a l i s m P a g e Wffii fe:: I: m-mmm. A:-, 7 •Mi Appalachian Greeks were turned away from the Boone Hospitality House Wednesday when they filled the house s basement with 7.500 cans of food The university Greek organizanons filled the storage areas in the Hospital­ ity House, the Hunger Coalition and OASIS, the center for abused and bat­ tered women, as part of the Greek Week activities last week. As a contest to earn points for the week, Greek organizations were asked to bring cans of food to the cafeteria lobby and Cannon and Cone hall Is. Winners of the contest were ranked by the percentage of membership di­ vided by the number of cans collected. The winners are as follows: Fraternities- 1st place Delta Chi with 1,800 cans; 2nd place TKE with 1,340 cans; 3rd place KA with 1,530 cans Sororities- 1st place Phi Mu with 737 cans; 2nd place Alpha Delta Pi with 549 cans; 3rd Delta Zeta with 596 cans A total of 8,630 cans were collected. "It was beyond my expectations," said Stephanie Dare, social service chairman forGreek Week steering com­ mittee. "I commend all the organiza­ tions pulling together to help the Bocne community." Dare believes showing people the community work Greeks do, benefiting the community, and partially obtaining Greek Week points motivated he par­ ticipants. "I hope the focus will be more on social services even if the canned food drive is not a part of the week," said Dare. �The Appalachian. Thursday.

Spring open 'Indecent Proposal' is disappointing house is Sat. By STEVEN MACKAY Staff Writer What would you do if a someone offered you $1 million to spend one night with yourspouse? One couple's answer and its consequences is the premise behind "Indecent Proposal." David (Woody Harrelson) and Diana Murphy (Demi Moore) are a happily married couple who have recently come under some financial strain. Hoping to hit the jackpot, they drive to Las Vegas. During their unsuccessful gambling spree, they are befriended by a mysterious bil­ lionaire named John Gage (Robert Redford). He begins to flirt with Diana and soon leams about her financial situation. During a friendly game of pool, Gage pops the inevitable question to the unsuspecting couple, who turn him down. Later that night in bed, David and Diana debate the moral reasons against and for the offer. They decide on the latter. After the deed is done and they have the one million, their marriage begins to fall apart. David cannot stop thinking about what might have happened between Diana and Gage. Gage re-enters their lives, and shatters their marriage. Gage seduces Diana, she hates it and then falls for it. David tries to go on with his life, but is plagued with the emotions of love lost. "Indecent Proposal" isn't really as bad as it sounds. Harrelson'sand Redford's performances are great. Unfortunately, almost everything else slumps, especially Moore's performance. "Indecent Proposal" ("R": sex, nudity, pro­ fanity) rates ** out of four. Folklorist speaks about life stories Special to the Appalachian For older Americans, telling stories provides a meaningful activity that connects them with friends and relatives, and allows them to create, review and express ideas about self-identity and values. Folklorist Patrick Mullen will discuss the form and role of life stories Thursday, April 22, at 7:30 p.m. in 02 Edwin Duncan Hall at Appalachian State University. In"listening toOld Voicesin the Blue Ridge," Mullen will discusshow peopleuse the perspec­ tive of old age toorganize and structure their past lives through narrative and other forms of folk­ lore in order to give meaning to their present existence. He will discuss life stories collected during the American Folklife Center's Blue Ridge Project along theNorthCarolina-Virginia border. Mullen's talk will focus on stories from Alleghany County, N.C., and Patrick County, Va., which investigate themes of personal suf­ fering, religion, change and humor. Mullen, professor of English at The Ohio State University, is the author of Listening to Old Voices: Folklore Life Stories and the Eld­ erly (University of Illinois Press, 1992), an ex­ amination of how elderly people use folk tradi­ tions to engage others and pass on their wisdom and knowledge to succeeding generations. He also has written"I Heard the OldFishermen Say: Folklore of the Texas Gulf Coast" and, with Timothy Lloyd, "Lake Erie Fishermen: Work, Tradition and Identity." Mullen will also present a classroom discus­ sion on the art of Ed Bell, a Texas tall-tale teller, Thursday, April 22, at 9:30 a.m. in 206 Sanford Hall... Mullen's visit is supported by grants from the College of Arts and Sciences, the North Carolina Folklore Society and the North Caro­ lina Arts Council, a state agency.

Playing only their second game of the year at Lackey Field, ASU's base­ ball team pounded Winthrop 8-1 Tues­ day, despite being outhit by the visiting Eagles. The Mountaineers who took advan­ tage of several Winthrop mistakes, in­ cluding four errors, paced themselves to victory. The Eagles jumped to an early lead when 2B Jay Ostermeyer led off the game with a double and later scored on a infield groundout. The Mountaineers answered the Winthrop call in the bottom of the first on RF John Bonner's sacrifice fly, which scored CF Will Shellman to knot the score at 1-1. Mil KM » If? , // M By DARIN N. GANTT Staff Writer && -r"t BP. Shellman led the Mountaineer bats, going two-for-four with three runs, two RBIs, and three stolen bases. Bonner added two more RBIs to increase his team leading total to 24. Livolsi deserved a "Purple Heart" for his part in the win, being hit by pitches on two separate occasions. Bonner and catcherShane Owenby also were hit by wild pitches. Despite the victory, the Mountain­ eers were outhit by Winthrop 8-6. ASU's team batting average of .257 ranks near the bottom of the Southern Conference. In other action, ASU travelled to VMI last weekend, where they took two of three from the Keydets. ASU lost the first game 5-1, but bounced back in the nightcap to win 2- 1. I '4 " Xi .

This game was the secondof the season to be playedon Lackey Field. The Mountaineers scoring barrage continued in the bottom of the second. Winthrop starter Paul Rehkow walked SS Ed Ewasko and 2B Trent Suggs to open the inning. Then, with one out, IB Kenny Osborne's bunt single loaded the bases. A sac fly by Shellman was followed by singles from LF Rich Livolsi and Bonner, each plating Mountaineer runners to pump the ASU lead to 4-1. That would be all the margin ASU starter Garth Armstrong would need. Armstrong allowedonly six hits over six innings to earn the win. ASU added single runs in the fourth and fifth and two more in the eighth to cement the victory. On Sunday, the Mountaineers put on one of their most potent offensive displays of the season, win­ ning 10-3. One thing that is keeping the Moun­ taineers competitive this season is im­ proved defense, which has been stellar lately, except for five errors last week against Virginia Tech. The team fielding percentage has been raised to .960, up twenty points from last year's .940 disaster. ASU will continue home play Wednesday when they host BelmontAbbey before travelling to Western Carolina this weekend for their Southem Conference finale.

Furman sweeps league golf tournament as ASU finishes sixth PHIL McCARN ssistant Sports Editor TheFurmanPaladins took the SouthConference golf ti tie on Tuesday by toting the second lowest total and * by the largest margin in league Appalachian State finished ving the Paladins in the final ngs wereGeorgia Southern (903), University of Tennessee at oga (903),Marshall (908), East Tennessee State (910), and the Moun­ taineers (917). Rounding out theteam standings were The Citadel, Western Carolina, the Vir­ ginia Military Institute, and Davidson University. Furman's Nick Cifelli captured the individual crown with a three-round score of 212while teammate BradJones was a close second with a 215 for the three day event. Cifelli was named theSouthern Con­ ference Player of the Year following the tournament. Appalachian's Jay Jamieson finished in a two-way tie for fourth place with Georgia Southern's Rick Bash by post­ ing scoresof 71,77,and 72for a total of 220. Jamieson was named, along with the other top five finishers, to the AllTournament team and was selected as a part of the 1993 All-Southern Confer­ ence team. "Jay has been a good player for us all year," said ASU head coach Sam Adams, "so Iwasn't surprised at all that he finished that high. In fact I felt like Jay had a chance to win the tourna­ ment." "Jay is a good player, so he is sup­ posed to play good," added Adams. "There was just a stretch of about three holes that probablycost him the tourna­ ment." Andrew Jamieson totaled the second lowest score for the Mountaineers with rounds of 79, 79, and 76. Jamieson's 234 tied him with Mercer Leftwich of Georgia Southern for 24th. Appalachian State's KyleKauffman followed the Jamiesons with a threeround total of 238. Kauffman started the tournament very strong and ended the tournament very strong with first and third rounds of 74 and 72, but it was his second round of 92 that put him out of contention. "I think it was just a matter of Kyle not finding the golf course in that sec­ ond round," said Adams. "The condi­ tions were not that much different, he just continually hit the ball out-ofbounds." Appalachian's Robert Murreli posted a 240 while Bryan Marshburn shot 85, 88, and 81 for a tournament total of243. Along with Jamieson and Cifelli, the All -Southern Conference team includes Bash, Neil Connolly of UTC, and Eric Shaffer of Marshall. Freshman-of-the-Year honors went to Garrett Willis of ETSU while Furman's Willie Miller received the honor of Southern Conference Coach of theYear for 1993.

The Mountaineers opened the week­ end on Friday with a 7-0 loss to the Davidson's Wildcats. "Davidson is a very tough team," ASU Head Coach Michael Kemodle said. "They are very deep and put a lot of pressure on us. Our guys tried real hard but they just did not play up to standards, and the cold weather was also a factor in the outcome." On Saturday, Appalachian State fell to Tennessee-Chattanooga by a margin of 5-2. "We had a legitimate chance to win this match," Kemodle said. Singles winners for the Mountain­ eers were second seeded Manuel Zapata and fifth seeded Greg Dulin. In doubles, Heath Marston and Zach Sharpe won at the third seed. Bill Plautz and Zapata, playing at first seed, and Ben Gerace and Blake Pendleton, playing at second seed, each lost close matches of 8-6. Had either of these teams won their matches, the Mountaineers would have beat the Moccasins. "I was very pleased with the team's efforts against UTC," Kemodle said. On Sunday, the Apps closed out the Appalachian photo by John Heisel weekend with a 5-2loss to East Tennes­ see State. "I saw some very positive things in LOSES THREE: The merUs ^^^state^^ <QDavidson, H ""•r"T1'ihas thismatch. Theteamplayedveiy well," Kemodle said. In singles play, Plautz won at second seed and in doubles play, Plautz and Zapata combined to win at first seed. "They (Plautz and Zapata) played their best tennis all year," Kemodle said. The second seed doubles also won behind the efforts of Gerace and Pendleton. Kemodle also noted theperformance of Marston, playing at fourth seed, "He lost a close match in three sets but he never gave up and I was very proud of his efforts." In addition, Kemodle noted the play of Gerace, seeded sixth for the Moun­ taineers, "He was down 5-2 in the sec­ ond set and came back to win but in the third set he just ran out of gas. It was a very close match." "If we had won those two singles, we could have won the match," Kemodle said. Despite posting an 0-3 record over the weekend, Kemodle was pleased with his team's efforts. "This is the closest we have ever been to these teams. We are starting to reach our potential and I feel that we are peaking at about the right time. I feel very positive about the upcoming con­ ference tournament," Kemodle said. The Mountaineers will participate in the SC Tournament on April 23-25. "I feel that going into the tournament we could be anywhere from fourth to the sixth seed," Kemodle said. The tournament will be hosted by Davidson in Davidson and will feature squads from all nine of the league uni­ versities. By LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor Intramural activities at Appalachian State are coming to a close for the spring semester as both the men's and women's indoor soccer championship tournaments are underway. The men's tournament, played in Broome-Kirk Gym, began Wednesday and features 19 squads including the defending champions, Reefer Madness. Other teams advancing to the champi­ onship round included Amish Lovechild, Mad Dogs, JVE, Mountain Men, Wanna Be's, Cha Cha Coole', Sigma Nu Hopkins, Rotten P-Knuts, King of P-Knuts, and Lazy Lightning.

Squads participating in the women's champi­ onships include Chi Omega, Delta KMA, Shrinking Violets and Shartkers/ Boozettes. Men's, women's and co-recreational Softball is also underway. Due to com­ plications and delays caused by the weather, a double elimination tourna­ ment is being played.Games are held on Monday through Thursday evenings at State Farm Field at 4:30 p.m. According to team sports coordina­ tor, David Davenport, Softball will con­ tinue through the last day of classes with the championship games bein£ played on May 3. The deadline to enter the final intra­ mural event of the year, May Day, is April 29. May Day, held on Sanford Mall, is similar to the Razzlc Dazzle event held in the fall semester- The event will be held on May 4. "aL �The Appalachian T h u r ^ g y . A n r i l 22 /99?

He said the plan for the potential Student Activity Center is in the pro­ cess of being reworked to become a more multipurpose investment. It may also include such academic departments as recreation and leisure studies, said Marion. He added that he preferred not to comment any further until he became more educated on the issue. Marion proposed three ways he will bridge the gap between students and administration. First he said he will remain visible and involved with the students through informal contact such as dining in the cafeteria once in a while. Second, he said he would like to arrange a monthly student government exchange with the chancellor. Third, he would like to attempt a Student Advisory Council including a wide range of student leadership. Whether or not such a council already exists, Marion has not researched this yet. He merely hopes to maintain face to face contact "with all members of the Appalachian family."

Borkowski said he regretted having to take the steps he took, but he was concerned about student safety. "I was very concerned about indi­ viduals coming on the campus and seiz­ ing the issue to create disruptive activi­ ties. There was an absence of leader­ ship on the part of student govern­ ment," Borkowski said. "You have to understand Tampa. We have had a lot of racial problems in Tampa." He cited the revision of the Univer­ sity of South Florida's undergraduate curriculum as one of his major accom­ plishments. The curriculum was re­ vised so that the general education re­ quirements focused more on valuesand ethics, according to Borkowski. Borkowski said he thought he was chosen as a final candidate because of his 23 years of experience in higher education and unique background in discipline and music.

Jimmy, you can hme\ fthat newbtke if you can I (answer just one ?"es'7o?:,A vWho+s -the average raMdIJ in the Amazon Basin if By GARY LARSON 1 I By ERIC RHODES Guest Columnist Recently, the column "Big government can lead to Socialism," April 15, attacked the Clinton Adminis­ tration while fondly reminiscing over the ReaganBush years. The column criticized "Big govern­ ment," and taxeson the rich, while Bill Clinton and A1 Gore are accused of leading America towards that horror of horrors — democratic socialism. I was driven to respond to the editorial's claim that unchecked capitalism is what "made America great." Does this mean that Henry Ford, who enlisted the Mafia to assassinate his competition, or the greedy industrialists whoforced six-year-oldchildren to work sixteen hours a day made America great? I think not. America wasonce known as the great meltingpot, and THIS is what made America great. Yet it is this very strength that is now becoming endangered. If the Republican Party had its way, only the rich white Anglo-Saxon Protestant males would prosper. The Republican Platform, promoting laissez-faire economics, trickle-down taxes (what George Bush once refened to as "Voodoo economics"), and the ever-nebulous family values can be summed up as a Human life begins at conception To the Editor: I am responding to Robert Robertson's column, "It is the couple's right to decide," March 2. This misleading piece of literature defended the use of abortion. To say that life begins at any other time besides conception is merely making an opinion. The fact of the matter is that the beginning of a human life occurs at the moment of conception when the mother's egg or ovum is fertilized by the father's sperm. At a symposium on abortion it was staled, "we could find no point in time between the union of sperm and egg and the birth of the infant at which point we could say that this was not a human life." Countless medical, biological, and scientific writings all agree that life begins at conception. As far as creation is I suggest Waco, Texas as the sight for the next Republican Convention. Our nation was foundedon the premise that all men are created equal. TheConstitution'sgreathypocrisy, its allowance of slavery, resulted in the Civil War, which killed more Americans than any other, pitting brother against brother. Abraham Lincoln had the integrity and vision to disregard his critics (he did not win a single Southern state in his bid for the presi­ dency), and take a pro-active step for the future of America. Had he not opted for change, America as we know it would not exist. conservative, reactive attempt to keep things the way they are — unequal. Conversely, Bill Clinton and A1 Gore propose a pro-active strategy to bring about equality and change. The Republican battle-cry "No Big Government" suggests that the law of supply and demand should be the sole mover of our economy. This same edict was used little over one hundred years ago to support the peculiar institution of slavery. This same edict was used fifty years ago to justify children working in sweatshops. Animals live in a state of economic freedom. In­ jured young are left to die; there is no central govern­ ment to "meddle in their affairs." 100,000 years or so ago, when humankind decided to protect the young and old and prevent injustice, we stopped being ani­ mals. What "No Big Government" really implies is a return to Social Darwinism, a return to being animals. Bill Clintonand A1 Gore want to"make the rich pay their fair share." The key word here is "fair;" raising the taxeson the rich, who prospered under Reagan and Bush, is not punishment. The number of billionaires in America doubled between 1986 and 1988. If you think this is because they worked twice ashard during the Reagan-Bush years, you've been reading too much National Review. There are a greater percentage of Americans in prison than in any other country except South Africa. Studies have shown that the amount of crime in a society is strongly correlated to the amount of eco­ nomic inequality. No wonder that our current eco­ nomic crisis, the result of twelve years of Republican leadership, has set the climate for riots in our inner cities. Then there is the great Republican hypocrisy — family values. While the Religious Right spoke out against a woman's right to choose at the Republican Convention, George Bush vetoed the Family Leave Act. With twenty percent of our nation's children living in poverty, we cannot afford such sanctimony. concerned. Psalm 139:13 says, "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb." Does this sound like something that should be destroyed or something that should be protected? Robertson's column states, 'To sentence the living to death is one thing while the unbom's fate is another." He also states that it is a couple's right "to decide what life is." Again, the existence of life is not an opinion; it is a fact. To give you a working definition of alive, alive means that the being is "growing, developing, maturing and replacing its own dying cells." From concep­ tion, there is a progression from a single cell to a tiny human with all body systems working by three months. The growth of a baby is a continuous development that takes place throughout all nine months in the womb. At just eighteen days, the heart is beating. The brain is functioning at forty days. In the sixth to seventh week, the baby first moves. The baby has its own lifeline, the umbilical cord, through which it receives oxygen and food from the mother. At eight weeks, the stomach, liver, kidneys and brain are all functioning. Similarly, Bill Clinton and A1 Gore seek to make changes in America for the good of her future genera­ tions. Capitalism is a fair economic system only if every American has an equal opportunity to succeed. Today, too many Americans are strangled by the "invisible hand"of capitalism; for every new billion­ aire created in the 80s, there were thousands of poorlyeducated Americans relegated to serving fries at McDonalds. Ronald Reagan and George Bush created wealth for a select few Americans by mortgaging our generation's future. Every child bom today inherits a debt of 16,000 dollars. What a welcoming gift. In addition, they championed a cause that may very well go down as this century's Great Evil — disregard for the environment in favor of short-term profits. Did you know that there are now twoman-made structures visible from space? One is the Great Wall of China, and the other is the New York City trash dump. Is this what we want America to go down in history for creating? Without a fundamental change in the way Ameri­ cans think, the only place our grandchildren will be able to appreciate nature will be zoos and theme parks. What will we say to them when they ask, "Grandma, Grandpa, how could you be so stupid?" The baby moves away from painful stimuli. On ultrasound, I personally saw a baby sucking its thumb, opening its mouth, scratching its chin, yawning, rubbing its face, moving its arm, opening and closing its eyes and sticking out its tongue. All this happens around nine to ten weeks after conception. By eleven weeks, all of the body systems are working. Nothing new develops; there is only growth in size and maturity. At five months after conception the baby is one foot long. Robertson contended that "a nut and bolt joined together do not make a car nor do a sperm and egg constitute a life." Let's expand on this "nut and bolt" theory. Scientifi­ cally speaking, this theory is incor­ rect. Both the sperm and egg each contribute twenty-three chromo. ^mes, forming a creation never to be duplicated again. Once fertilization takes place, the sperm and egg no longer exist Therefore, a nut and bolt joined together may not make a car, but the only two elements necessary to begin human life are the sperm and the egg. Robertson also states that the fetus "can't react to stimuli." But it does react to stimuli. As seen by ultra­ sound, at nine to ten weeks, if you stroke.lhe baby's pa,lm it will make a tight fist. At four and a haJfjuonths, a very bright light on a woman's abdomen will cause the baby to slowly move its hand to a position shielding its eyes. Loud music will cause the baby to cover its ears. Ultrasound also shows that prior to the baby being cut into pieces, it reacts by moving to the other side of the amniotic sac, squirming and trying to push the instruments away. The baby's heartbeat has been calculated to rise to an astounding two hundred beats per minute as it realizes that its life is in imminent danger. There are two lives involved in a pregnancy and convenience does not justify taking another's life. We need to take the responsibility to protect the unborn. Many people speak of the so called "abortion right." But we must instead assert the inalienable right to life. As Deuteronomy 30:19 says, "I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore, choose life, that both you and your children may live."

The trip was sponsored by group B-GLAD, Bi-Sexual, Gay, I Lesbian Association for Diversity -Appalachian. According to co-president of B1LAD Evan Smith, "There was an esited 300,000 people at the march ,rding to the Parks and Recreation jirtment in D.C., while the D.C. olice Department estimated that there (ere at least 1.5 million in attendance, discrepancy in the figures is thought be because the Parks and Recreation bailment only counted the people in ie mall and the police department minis all the marchers at the rally." It estimated that there were at least 100 eople from the Watagua area, includj students and local residents. The main event that the students parSee MARCH page 2 Tuesday, April 27,1993 APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, Boone, NC 28608 Dr. Richard E. Sorensen, the last of three chancellor candidates to visitcam­ pus, emphasized his teaching experi­ ence, administrative experience and business experience for the position of chancellor in a speech last Thursday. According to Larry Nance, a mem­ ber of the chancellor search committee, the committee narrowed the candidates down to two Friday afternoon and for­ warded their recommendations to C.D. Spangler, the president of the Univer­ sity of North Carolina System. How­ ever, the meeting was held in private and the results have not been released to the public. Nance said the three final candidates. Dr. Frank Borkowski, Dr. Paul Marion and Sorensen were notified of the . committee's decision but were asked not to comment on the results, as were committee members. An official announcement will be made by Spangler Tuesday morning. During his speech Thursday, Sorensen toldthe audience it was"good to be home." Before his current posi­ tion as Dean of the R.B. Pamplin Col­ visits, search narrowed lege of Business at Virginia Polytech­ nic Institute and State University, Sorensen was dean of the ASU Walker College of Business for nine years. Speaking of his family's time in Boone, Sorensen said, "We've always liked ASU and the quality of students." Sorensen stressed quality and not quantity in his vision for Appalachian. He was animate in discussing the qual­ ity of the university's library. "The library is not providing a qual­ ity education," said Sorensen. "We need to resolve the problem in the library." Sorensen suggested three possibili­ ties for improving monetary support for the Belk library. Petitioning UNC President C.D. Spangler, lobbying the state legislature, and/or increasing stu­ dent fees were the alternatives. Sorensen comes from the researchbased Virginia Tech with a 4,000 studentCollegeof Business. VirginiaTech enjoys more financial support and leg­ islature support than Appalachian, said Sorensen. Sorensen stated that he had a part in increasing the financial contributions and legislature support during his time at Virginia Tech. He has raised $30 million for thecollege over ten years."I can do the same thing here," Sorensen told the ASU audience. When asked about keeping tuition costs low, Sorensen again stressed qual­ ity and not quantity. Quality of educa­ tion must be in balance with cost, ex­ plained Sorensen. He went on to say that a low-priced education may not be the same as a quality education. In 10 years, Sorensen would like to see Appalachian with the benefits of the present size campus and enroll­ ment, but an increase in the quality of the university. Sorensen added that keeping the university at its present size depended on the state's population growth in 10 years. Sorensen told a groupof student lead­ ers that the university will always have a commitment to undergraduate education,post-graduate and doctorate programs. Attracting students from a broader area would have the positive effect of a wider range of ideas and thoughts and would strengthen under­ graduate education, said Sorensen. Although Sorensen has held an ad­ ministrative position for the 20 years, he can still be seen in the classroom. Sorensen teaches an Introduction to Business class at Virginia Tech and See CANDIDATE page 2 Dr. Richard E. Sorensen Senior class pledges $15,350 to library By COLLEEN ALDRIDGE rjSiaff Writer Appalachian StateUniversity's 1993 senior class has pledged $15,350 to Belk Library for their class gift. In November, the senior committee ;anized a vote, giving each member of the senior class the chance to cast their ballot for the class gift. Out of four tggested ideas, the library fund was chosen. This is the second year in a row that class gift has been given to the library out of the four years the senior ittee has been in existence. "By (donating money to the library, seniors thow that education is a high priority," #td Jeff Reid, senior committee mem­ ber. Unlike years past, the committee ^ed seniors to give a one-time dona­ tion of $25. By asking for a one-lime donation, amount of money pledged will be PV accurate as to how much will actually be received," said Johnny Brendell, president of the senior com­ mittee. "This way seniors give the amount they feel comfortable withnow and don't have to worry about keeping a pledge promise three years after gradu­ ating." Since 1988-1989,statefunding hasn't allowed the library to grow. According to University Librarian Mary Reichel, book purchases dropped from 8,500 to 2,600 in a single year due to a 32 per­ cent increase in the average price of a book. "Most booksnow cost approximately $35 to $50," said Mike Crutchfield, senior committee member. "For this reason, the money donated to the li­ brary will be used primarily for the purchase of new books for all academic areas." The money donated from the pledges made by over 600 seniors will be taken up until May 10, 1993. The Senior Committee will then present a check for the full amount at the Senior Ban­ quet on May 14. rnoto uy Matt Smith ASU students protest Du Pont bike race By DANE PERRY Staff Writer Thirty to 40 people showed up in full-body radiation suits in front of Appalachian's campus Wednesday af­ ternoon in an attempt to raise aware­ ness of ozone depletion and protest the Tour Du Pont bike race scheduled to pass through Boone on May 14. The group claims the ozone is being depleted by chloroflourocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochloroflourocarbons (HCFCs), which the Du Pont company produces. They also claim that Du Pont Report cites building violations intra By DAWN MCGU1RE Assistant News Editor n W-year-old to graduate Page 3 Dr. Richard Howe, director of the equal opportunity program, called a 1992 Education Department report cit­ ing Appalachian with discrimination against people with disabilities "regret­ table." "Appalachian has done a great job of addressing the concerns of people with disabilities and the report cited one building where changes were quickly made," said Howe. The Education Department report s Charlotte Hornets Practice in Boone Pages Momentary diversity "®Rdoms findings, which were printed last week in The Chronicle of Higher Education, included Appalachian with universities that had buildings which did not meet the law's accessibility requirements. According to Howe, the university system had an on-site investigation in February 1992 Violations were in I.G. Greer Hall and Howe said that the in­ vestigators found three or four techni­ cal problems, but the main concern was the entrance. Howe said there were two steps into the building and a door too narrow for a wheelchair. The door was widened and a ramp was put at the entrance. Howe said the university went even further and re­ moved a row of seats in the movie theater to allow easier movement. In July 1992 the university com­ pleted a study on the accessibility of Appalachian's grounds and buildings for people with disabilities. Howe said theUniversity is addressing the study's findings and suggestions based on what is most pressing and the availability of funds. According to Howe, the N.C. Board of Governors asked the legislature for $2 million to meet the needs of the disabled. Appalachian's share of that money would be $175,000. College bans nude models (CPS) Students and faculty had mixed reactions to Baylor University's deci­ sion to ban nude models in an art de­ partment drawing class after receiving hundreds of telephone calls expressing opposition. The class is anatomical drawing, called "Life Drawing," was designed for advanced art students and would have featured nude male models in ath­ letic supporters and fully nude female models. -T-u- would have allowed stu- dents required to have 21 hours of art credits to study muscle mass and bone structure needed for classical drawing exercises. The course was supposed to include lectures from doctors about anatomy. "We have never had a life class here before," said Margaret Pauling, a spokesman for the college. "But we decided not to have it because our Bap­ tist constituency said it would distress them greatly." The university's Board of Regents unanimously voted to cancel the class, previously approved for the fall, after the BaptistGeneral Convention of Texas asked regents to "prayerfully consider the prospect of such a class," according to the "Lariat," Baylor's student news­ paper. "We have heard clearly the voices of Texas Baptists and many others, and we have cancelled any plan to offer the proposed course," Michael E. See NUDE page 2 was the inventor of the chemicals and is the largest producer of them. Protesters claim that Du Pont re­ leases almost a million pounds of these chemicals a day. They said that Du Pont is now trying to clean up their image by sponsoring the Tour Du Pont. Groups such as Sierra Club, Greenpeace, and SEAC (Students En­ vironmental Action Coalition) have started acampaign to makepeople aware of what they claim is Du Pont's respon­ sibility for the ozone depletion. The groups are summarizing their protest with theslogan "Right Race/ Wrong Sponsor." F EPORTS Student assaults officer Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor University Police charged an Ap­ palachian student with assault on a police officer and custodial state employee, a misdemeanor, after the student backed into an officer Thurs­ day. The officer was waiting behind the College of Business for a tow truck to tow the student's vehicle Thursday morning. The owner arrived and left the scene, striking the officer with her vehicle, according to the campus in­ cident log. The officer's foot got caught in the vehicle's tire when the student backed out of the parking space. The officer was taken to the infirmary and re­ leased. A ring valued at $1,000 and a $20 bill were reported missing from a private room in the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center. Director of Pub­ lic Safety Roy Tugman saida woman told police that she left the ring and money in the bathroom. When she returned 20 minutes later both were missing. Police received two reports of sto­ len radar detectors last week. On Wednesday, a person told police a radar detector was missing from a vehicle in the Hoey parking lot. The day before a person reported a radar detector stolen from a vehicle in sta dium parking lot. Last Tuesday, a Frank residence assistant reported a pellet gun shoot­ ing from the residence hall. Police found that missiles were being fired by a manufactured sling shot. The sling shot was confiscated and the shooter was issued a university cita­ tion. Police were unable to locate a stu­ dent reported shooting a B.B. gun from Frank Residence Hall Monday. �The Appfllarhinn Tuesday Anril 27 1QQ1 Fashion Showcase: The Home Economics Department will present its annual Showcase on April 30th in the Pub at 8 p.m. For information call Janice Whitener at 262-2663.

Nude Continued from pagel Bishop, Baylor's vice presidentforcom­ munications and marketing, told the paper. John McClanahan, chairman of the art department, said the course was offered so art students would have a better chance of getting into graduate schools in such areas as medical illus­ tration. Baylor art students who continue their studies in graduate school have been required to take nude figure drawing classes at other universities after gradu­ ation. "In general, not every Baptist on this campus is against this class; in fact, most are for it. They recognize the academic worthiness of it," said Joan Ranton, editor of the Lariat. The university receives funds from the Baptist General Convention, Pauling said. "We're very proud of our Baptist heritage," she said "Baylor is a very conservative school. They do have drawing classes in bathing suits. It's not that they don't have any (classes) at all." The reasons for male models being partially clad and female models being fully nude in the proposed class were unclear. The art department chairman told the newspaper that the practice would mask any"involuntary erections" that would embarrass both the models and students. "I think it is not an uncommon prac­ tice at other schools," said Ranton, the Lariat editor, who was unsure why Baylor officials would require differ­ ent standards for male and female mod­ els. S tudent facul ty reactions ranged from disappointment to support for the regent's decision. Doug Crow, sculptor-in-residence and German professor, told the Lariat, "As a sculptor, I thought it was a good step to have the class because it is important to have knowledge of the anatomy whensculpting any livingcrea­ ture." Alex Lofaso, a freshman art major, said he expected the class to be offered when he enrolled at Baylor. The class would have been offered only to stu­ dents who wanted to learn how todraw the body correctly, Lofaso said. "Baylor ishere toeducate people and not to please the people with the pocketbooks," Lofaso told the Lariat. However, not all students were op­ posed to banning the class. "Ignoring opposition to the art class voiced by Texas Baptist individuals, churches and associations would dem­ onstrate a flagrant disregard for Baylor's Baptist roots," Amanda Sanders wrote in a newspaper column March 23. March Continued from page 1 ticipated in other than the march was the Hands Around theCapitol on Satur­ day morning. According toTroy Sheuer, "There was an estimated 50,000 people at this function that fought for AIDS funding for research and education." The event was sponsored by ACT-UP, AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power. Some other events that Appalachian State University students participated in were a Mass Wedding, a pre-march breakfast, The Forgotten Boy Scouts Beautification Project, aPeople'sColor Conference, and many other confer­ ences and workshops. However, the main event of the weekend was the march to the capitol. This march was the event that the homosexuals hoped would bring them admission to the civil rights amendments in theUnited States. When asked about the march Evan Smith said, "The sense that there is an incredible diversity in the gay and les­ bian population in this country was overwhelming. We have seen the small percentage in North Carolina but at the march there was areal sense of freedom that you can't experience in Boone or anywhere in North Carolina." Troy Sheuer summed up the march as, "a moving experience, possibly the greatest day of my life. The diversity of the crowd was amazing. It was an inspi­ ration to go out and do more and show that gays, lesbians and bi-sexuals are here." Candidate Continued from page 1 taught two classes each semester while dean of Walker College of Business. Sorensen indicated that he would like to continue to teach if offered the posi­ tion of Appalachian Chancellor. Another aspect of increasing the qual­ ity of Appalachian is involving stu­ dents in the university process accord­ ing to Sorensen. Sorensen suggested regular meetings with students and fo­ rums for student input to obtain a accu­ rate representation of student opinion. Sorensen currently sits cm two North Carolina businesses' boards of direc­ tor. He is a director of Brad Ragan Inc. in Charlotte and Plastic Packaging Inc. in Hickory.

This fact should've »med on me when I went to the Gold Room other day to buy a nice, home-cooked , and I found out that the balance on my card was all of two dollars. Of course, meal that I was attempting to purchase was io dollars and twenty-five cents, and the line me was out the door, so I cracked ill of the pressure, dropped my tray, and out the door screaming hysterically. No, really I'm not that strange, but the point I'm trying to make is that summer is here even though the weather does not agree that, and I'm sure that there are a wide ige of thoughts going through everyone's wom-out brains as they shuffle from is to class realizing that finals begin next ilc.

More than 100 Glee Club alumni will join this year's group in rehearsals, fellowship and a concert May 1. The free concert begins at 7p.m. in Rosen Concert Hall. Formore information call 262-3020. For Dr. Philip Paul, directorof the Glee Club, the weekend will be like a family reunion. Paul has directed the singers since 1966. "All these men are like sons to Mrs. Paul and myself," he said. "Directing this group is one of my biggest joys in teaching. It's not just making music. There is a close-knit ensemble whose comararderie spans the years." Paul, who plays French hom, fell into choral directing while teaching in Florida. "I was plan­ ning to be a high school band director but my first job was teaching band and chorus."He has been involved in choral directing ever since. The glee club is comprised of music and nonmusic majors. The group performs music written for male voices. The term glee refers to an 18th century style of chorale music. Paul gleaned through 30 years of concerts in selecting music for the May 1 concert. "I se­ lected songs that have been performed often enough over the years that most alumni will be familiar with," Paul said. Each returning gleeclub member is receiving a packet of music to rehearse on his own prior to group rehearsals in Boone. The program beginswith selections performed by this year's glee club. They are "Break, Break, Break" from "Three Pieces After Tennyson"by Ron Nelson;"Widerspruch" by Franz Schubert; "A Dirge for Two Veterans" By Gustav Hoist; "I'm Building Me a Home" arranged by Uzee See GLEE page 4 GLEE CLUB TURNS 30: ASU Men's Glee Club celebrates their 30th anniversary with a free concert May 11. The concert will take place in Rosen Concert Hall and will begin at 7 p.m. 80-year old woman to graduate in Dec. Special to the Appalachian Like most college seniors, Thelma Raley is eagerly awaiting graduation. Unlike most stu­ dents, Raley waited more than 50 years to complete her education. The 80-year-old grand­ mother from Winterhaven, Fla. and Blowing Rock receives a bachelor of arts degree in English Dec. 6 from Appalachian State Univer­ sity. Raley had completed two years of college when she left school to go to work. Next came marriage, children, grandchildren and the re­ sponsibilities that accompany being a wife and mother, in addition to those of managing the family's citrus groves. "I always wanted to get my degree," Raley said. After two heart attacks slowed her down she decided to enroll in classes to "keep the cobwebs down." Her last class, "Woman as Hero," was taken by independent study with English professor Georgia Rhoades. The course investigates the premise that a woman's self image is affected by the literature she reads. For example, female 19th-century literary heroes were usually killed. That sent a message that women weren't sup­ posed to triumph. One of the assignments in the class was to define what made a woman ahero. Rhoades said that Raley fit the class's definition. "The class decided a woman hero is someone who provides a space that makes it safe for other women to achieve, and by their actions makes it clear that others can do thesame," Rhoades said. "Thelma Raley certainly is a woman hero. She serves as a role model for other women students at Appalachian." Raley took classes in the summers and during two fall semesters at Appalachian, majoring in English with a psychology minor. She was the oldest student in her classes. "It didn't bother me," she said. "I was just another student. I didn't want them to think I was just an old lady eyeing them. They all kidded me and weenjoyed being around each other." Raley chose English because of her interest in writing. She once traveled to Spain to write an article about the citrus industry. She has also written articles for Florida newspapers. After graduation Raley has no plans to write the great American novel. She says she has enough todo as a memberof the board of several organizations in Florida. She wants to continue writing for newspapers, concentrating on Florida's environmental problemsand the state's citrus industry. Benson brings creativity to writing project Special to the Appalchian She'd taught writing classes for 12 years, but something drew Barbara Benson to Appala­ chian State University's Writing Project The former composition teacher at North Carolina State and junior and senior English teacher at Watauga High simply wanted to learn more about writing. And leam she did. In the intensive three-anda-half week session in 1986, Benson learned something that would drastically alter her think­ ing: Kindergarten teachers were teaching the same types of things she taught in high school. She figured out ways to incorporate some of their teaching methods. That year, when her junior English honor students at Watauga were stressed out during exam time, Benson combined creativity with a writing assignment. Juniors used crayons to write a letter to Santa Claus. Benson, who snagged the idea from a writing institute participant, said the idea was a success, because of the students' sense of humor and sarcasm. Her classroom wall was filled with a row of "Dear Santa" letters, colored and deco­ rated like the classrooms at Hardin Park Elementary School. Since then, Benson has expanded her skills to become a part-time national consultant for re­ structuring schools. She travelsto schools across the nation tohelp develop interdisciplinary pro­ grams. Eight counties in North Carolina — including Alamance and Polk — have pilot programs. . Benson credits the Writing Institute as the catalyst which propelled her into her consultant position. "It was there that I first realized that everyone's working toward the same goal, whether it's a kindergarten or a high school teacher. We're all trying to develop critical thinkers and teachstudents how toleam," Benson said. Ten years ago, Appalachian'sWriting Project began training teachers about new writing meth­ ods. Selected as one of eight sites in North Carolina by the department of public instruc­ tion, the project allows teachers to think creatively. "You need to write to teach writing," said project co-director Emory Maiden. "Teachers often forget what writing consists of and they need to be reminded. It's a process involving energy and risk taking." When the writing project begins each morn­ ing at 8:30 a.m., teachers start the day with creative writing. That part of the day was Benson's favorite. Each writing participant or fellow has a sample from the early-moming session published in a small booklet entitled "Writings." When the program is over, they have their own publication of some of their summer work. Since writing projects across the state began. North Carolina's writing test scores have im­ proved. The program is open to any grade-level teacher, which broadens the teaching perspec­ tive. "Most teachers make good, intuitive choices. The writing project shows them there's a theo­ retical rationale and allows them to talk about which practices work," Maiden said. Teachers discuss methods they've experi­ mented with in the classroom and tell the responses. Also, fellows can return to the pro­ gram as consultants, as Benson did in 1990. As a second-time fellow, Benson demon­ strated teaching strategies in the project sessions. She also worked on an independent project. writing to teachers wanting to improve their which was published in an English journal. student test scores. About 25 teachers participate in the project "Appalachian is known as a place where teach­ each summer. In the Appalachian project alone, 238 teachers have been trained.

"It's one school reasons for attending vary from first-year teach­ a lot of teachers can come to which provides a ers who find themselves unprepared to teach huge regional service." �T h e Appalachian TuPsdav A n r i l 27 790?

"Harold has always had tremendous work habits,"said Appalachian strength coach Mike Kent. "His work habits are a credit tohis commitment on and off of the field." For the Falcons, drafting Alexander does not obligate them to keep him on the team. Alexander will have to earn his spot for Atlanta but that is some­ thing that Kent feels will be no prob­ lem. "He has a very good chance to make the team," said Kent. "He is a very coachable athlete so he will listen to what the coaches have to say. His work habits and natural ability should make it no problem for Harold." Alexander will be right at home as the Falcon training facility is only one hour and 45 minutes from Pickens, South Carolina where he grew up.

They will practice at the same times today and will return to Charlotte on Wednesday before Thursday's matchup in Boston with the Celtics. The practices are closed to the public. "We have been playing some intense basketball for the last couple of weeks and coming up here to Boone just gives us a chance to relax," said Charlotte head coach Alan Bristow.

See TRACK page 6 Conference honors decade of women's athletics "HYDIACRAVER •*!P<>rts Editor e Southern Conference first began women's championships in volleyball and tennis in the 1983-84 athletic year following the disbanding of the Athletic Inter-colle­ giate Association of Women (AIAW) in 1982. In December of 1984, the dedication to women's athletics was strengthened as administrators from the SC schools took part in the league's annual winter meeting forthe first time. In the fall of 1985, the first women's cross country championships were held and in the following two athletic years, two more sports were added in indoor and outdoor track for a total of six women's sports recognized by theleague. The Germann Cup, awarded annu­ ally to the conference member with the top all-around women's program was initiated in the 1986-87 season. Appa­ lachian Statehas captured the Cup each year behind consistently strong cross country, indoor track and outdoor track programs. The Lady Mountaineers have also had their share of success in bas­ ketball and volleyball. In 1988, the women's basketball tour­ nament champion began to receive an automatic bid to the NCAA Division I playoffs. In 1991, the winner of the women's volleyball tournament began to receive an automatic bid to theNational Invitational Volleyball Championship. The leaguenow recognizes ten sports including basketball, volleyball, field hockey, golf, swimming and diving, tennis, Softball, cross country, indoor track and outdoor track. In honor of women's athletics, the league has held a number of activities over the past athletic year including a reception for each sport celebrating the 10th anniversary and the SC athletes and coaches of the previous 10 years. Additionally, the league named "a Team of the Decade" for each sport as well as an Athlete of the Decade. Traci Blankenship of ASU was ' named to the volleyball squad while Valorie Whiteside was named to the basketball squad. Appalachian had three representatives on the field hockey squad including Libba Shannonhouse, Sheila McCarthy and Lynn Carrino. Doltie Mochrie, a Furman golfer, was named Athlete of the Decade. The cross country, indoor track and outdoor track Teams of the Decade have yet to be released. ountaineer men's tennis team finishes fifth in league In singles play, David Ray finished sixth at first seed.

"Our goal was to make the playoffs, now we want to make some noise in them." The Hornets are on a bit of a hot streak, having won their last five games including a win over the defending champion Chicago Bulls. The confidence factor associated with that win should be a plus going against Boston. "We are just going to have to go out there and do it," said Hornet forward Larry Johnson. "It s our first time in the playoffs and everybody is going to have to do their job." A Told a piece of tape up to your eyes, dim the lights and try to fill out your taxes.

One reason Monris is excited about his team's chances is improved de­ fense. Save a pair of five-error out­ bursts at home against Virginia Tech and Western Carolina, the Mountain­ eer defense has been superlative in the second part of the season. Last season, ASU finished dead last in conference fielding stats; but this year, Morris's nine have improved to the point where they are hovering near the conference lead in the same category. Morris cited improved weather con­ ditions in his teams recent inspired out­ ings. "Ever since the blizzard, we've been in every single game. We've actually been able to get onto our field to prac­ tice, and that's been a big help to our club in preparing for the tournament this weekend."

THE FAR SIDE blindfold or a last smoke. Politics is not kind to the honest. To pay for our past foolishness and to prevent future transgressions, taxes have to go up. There's no other feasible alternative. Yes, spending should be cut, but where? Cutting the military budget results in the loss of jobs. Education has already been cut enough. Cutting the space program also results in the loss of jobs, as well as knowledge. Our welfare system needs to be reformed, but cuts are impossible. And social security, the golden calf of government expenditures, can't be touched significantly without some damage. In the long run, all these costs will be increased as the population becomes larger and more jobs are It wouldn't be so bad if the money borrowed was needed and demanded. Add to that debts due on Kuwait, Somalia, the S&L scandal, and the various utilized for smart investment purposes, but it natural disasters which have struck our country and wasn't. Education was underfinanced while you have quite a bill to pay. That's the problem modem weaponry made huge advancements in with the deficit. The things we need to be spending killing more people with more accuracy. What do we have to show for our investments now? We can money on can't be accomplished because of past bills. Take the 100 dollar example previously blow a third world country off the map while mentioned — let's say you owe Visa 30 dollars, students graduate with the literacy level of a first Mastercard 40 dollars and JC Penny's 25 dollars. grader.

It will do no good. Republicans blame Congress, Now we have this deficit made up of over 10 and Democrats point to past presidents while digits. Every American owes a share of just over simultaneously the national debt grows larger and 16,000 dollars. The interest due annually on the loans our government made take bigger and bigger public tempers grow shorter. Simply put, it's bites out of the budget. There's a huge mountain to everybody's fault.

Right now Americans want jobs, health care, education, We have no one to blame but ourselves. It's time energy, and everything else which could possibly we the people face the facts, the bills are due and be defined under the term "pursuit of happiness" our names are on them.

A new phrase came into existence then; it's known as the era of "tax and borrow." Govern­ ment revenues fell slightly as spending was increased greatly. Anyone knows you can't spend what you don't have, except evidently, the leaders of our country. If you only make 100 dollars a month, you can't rush out and spend 1,000 dollars in that same thirty-day period. Well, Washington can. They've "maxed" out their credit cards and have over-borrowed from the bank but have yet to realize their error. JONATHAN WATTERSON Copy Editor BRAVER \ Editor r We owe, regardless of who's to blame By ROBERT ROBERTSON Columnist It's a dream come true for most of us — the ultimate college experience. Imagine, if you will, an Appalachian house party consisting of twenty kegs of the finest ale. Ten eight-gallon coolers filled to the rim with PJ. All the latest jams and best of the oldies to shake your rump to, and maybe a few controlled substances here and there to indulge your fancy. All under one roof on a cool, breezy Friday night. Take it a step further and charge only a dollar a head for all you can drink, smoke or dance. Who wouldn't go for this? Who wouldn't want to come? Don't worry about the bill or thef next morning's headache. Live for the moment, have fun while it lasts. Everyone in favor, say "AYE." Any opposed? Let the games begin... For those of you who doubt such a party could ever come about, think again — it already has. Welcome to the hangover known as the Nineties. A wallet aching, deficit regurgitating, "what the hell do you mean I'm fired" kind of time. Last decade's party was the greatest ever. For a while there, you didn't have to worry about interest rates, economic indexes or how much national sales increased last month. No one stopped to think just where all the money came from to have such a gala event. Now we know — our future. In the eighties, the government deficit soared to new heights as did the bank accounts of the upper upper class. Tax cuts for investors (more com­ Our university is reluctant to change To the Editor: This letter is a response to a column written by Robert Robertson, "ASU is having an identity crisis," April 6. The column voiced concerns about how Appalacian State Univer­ sity is slowly, but surely, turning into another UNC-Chapel Hill. To be honest, I did not even know that suggestion was a remote possibility. What Robertson's column does symbolize, however, is how reluctant Boone and our university are to change. Additions to any university, such as fraternity housing and a Student Activity Center, could only have positive results. They both make the university more appealing and add to the students' overall college experience. Robertson was particularly concerned with the possibility of Boone losing its "uniqueness." The "uniqueness" of having to drive ten minutes for a screwdriver and being bored on Saturday nights is an aspect of Boone that I could happily do without. The bottom line is, change and progress are not necessarily evil. I have yet to see the ill effects of moving computers into the residence halls. Likewise, I hardly see a future of uncontrollable, underaged drinkers resulting from LBTD and fraternity housing. Finally, if Appalachian State does progress into a top-ranked and nationally respected university, sister to UNC-Chapel Hill, with national might as well take advantage of this "service." What I found was that the condoms offered more closely resembled weather balloons than birth control devices. Let me give you some background. Condoms, once upon a time, were Jason Morton made from sewn and oiled cow skin. Box 07702 Slowly they evolved into the latex condom as we know it. The first major advances were in the lubrica­ tion of the condom itself (this prevents it from rupturing during use, which would kind of make it pointless) and the addition of various kinds of spermicides, which kill the To the Editor: sperm and many STD's. The condoms I received were nonIf you are one of those people that lubricated and contained no believes anything but hooking spermicide of any sort. Basically they thumbs before a good Christian are latex balloons, which are fine for marriage is punishable by the eternal fires of hell, you need read no further. decorating birthday parties, but serve as no use as a birth control device. This doesn't affect you. Is the University serious about Appalachian State University's offering birth control to its students, Health Services offers a wonderful or is this merely a cheap token effort "service" for those who are too to appear socially responsible? bashful (or in my case, too cheap) to purchase condoms at the normal C.V.Smyth condom getting place.

Members of the task force include Marsha Patterson,Hunter Schofieldand Jim Rice, director of environment and safety at ASU. According to Patterson, a phone sur­ vey was done after Spring Break to determine student support for indoor recycling. Petitions were distributed throughout campus alonig with booths set up around campus. The phone sur­ vey met with a 99 percent positive response. The task force is now in the process of studying other universities with in­ door recycling programs to determine the most effective way to implement the program. Almost all of the UNC system schools have an indoor recy­ cling program, said Patterson.

Wherry was recently elected to serve as president and said that she is still adjust­ ing to her new responsibilities. Jeff Reid, the former president of the ambas­ sadors, has also dedicated much of his college experience to teaching potential students about Appalachian. Both Wherry and he agree that people are mostly impressed with the friendli­ ness of ASU students. "People see first hand that we have a friendly campus," Reid said.

Both groups will be housed in separate Gilded Age mansions but will share meals, recreational activities and learning experiences.

"What the devil do you think you Appala­ chian hillbillies are doing up here in New En­ gland?" "Getting revenge," was the cheerful reply. You Yankees have been studying us for nearly 200years. Now we're going to study you awhilel" Under the auspices of the Appalachian State University department of history the "revenge" have a choice between providing their own trans­ portation and limiting theirstay tosix days (June 6-12), or boarding a university athletic bus and stretching their experience to nine days (June 413). According to trip planner Dr. Bettie Bond, the stretching will include overnight stopovers and tours of Gettysburg, Pa., and Mystic, Conn., the latta featuring a 20-acre museum of ships and working shipyards. On Sunday, June 6, the group will rendezvous with otha participants on the Salve Regina campus and sit down to a traditional New England shore dinner featuring lobster,clams, mus­ sels, com on the cob and rhubarb pie. Throughout the week all adult learners will attend lectures and join tours of such famous mansions as Rosecliff, Marble House, Chateausur-Ma and The Breakers. In addition to scheduled activities, partici­ pants will have opportunities for hiking, biking, sailing, fishing or simply exploring Newport and the surrounding area. Total all-inclusive fee for participants choos­ ing the nine-day experience will be $710. Participants managing their own transportation will pay a charge of $450 for the six-day expe­ rience.

He comes in drunk. She flicks on the ovahead light as you are drifting off to sleep. He plays music of questionable taste at top decible. She smokes; you don't. Your lunch money van­ ishes. There is no more bitta rite of passage than sharing space with a disastrous roommate. Many college students have never bunkedwith a brotha or sister, much less experienced being trapped with a stranger who does things they don't understand. Some first-year students are so distraught over a Roommate from Hell that they pack their bags and call it quits. "Come get me," they tell bewildered parents. Everyone has a horror story. ^ Uanne Call,areporterfor the "Western Star," the newspapa for Western Oregon State Col­ lege in Monmouth, interviewed dozens of students about their experiences for a recent story about living situations that are less than perfect. One student said he found a roommate rum­ maging through his drawers. "I'm just looking for drags," she announced. Anotha student came home to find his roommate having sex with someone—on HIS bed, no less. One unfortunate student reported that his roommate did his laundry only once the entire semester, and aneva-grow ing mountainof dirty clothes threatened to take over the small room. Anotha student said a former roommate hosted a four-day orgy in the middle of finals, made drunken phone calls to 911 and put a vodka bottle full of dimes in the microwave oven. One forma college student recalled an unex­ pected guest for two weeks—her roommate's boyfriend, who camped out on the floor. Then thae was the Irish Setter and his owner, clevaly hidden from the resident advisors, who took up residence in the suite next door. Still anotha nightmare "roomie" had a pen­ chant for making harassing calls to the girlfriend of a policeman for whom she had developed a "Fatal Attraction" obsession. "Learning to live with roommates, to share, is part of the college experience," said Adrian Schiess, director of freshman programs at Xavia University in Cincinnati.

The ambassadors address these issuescarefully, makingsure they don't mislead potential students. "We're always honest," Reid said. "We don't want students to come up here andfind out that we lied; it doesn't accomplish anything. We try to focus on the positive things, like telling people how beautiful it ishere when it snows." "I've never given a tour where stu­ dents are not impressed,"Wherry said. "I always get a good feeling." To help welcome students to Appa­ lachian, several ambassadors have narrated a video that describes the cam­ pus and discusses things like meal options, classes, and residence halls.

The AIDS virus doesn't just attack your body, it destroys that immune system so thai your body is more prone to develop diseases like pneumonia or cancer. CHLAMYDIA: Chlamydia (an infection of the urinary tract and/or vagina) is the most common STD in U.S. This is because it has few or no symptoms. As a result, it's possible to have the disease for some time without knowing it. GENITAL WARTS (HPV): More than 60 different kinds of Genital Warts are associate/with the Human Papilloma virus.

In addition to Roberts and Dalton, the Mountaineers had first place finish­ ers in Garson Hedrick, Jon Fullen and Dennis Gutknecht.

According to Fereshetian, Grant, Roberts and the 4 by 100-meter relay team will be the only representatives for ASU at the prestigous Penn Relays. The Apps will host the Southern Conference OutdoorTrack Champion­ ships on April 30-May 1. "We have a chance to win it but right now I have to admit that VMI is the favorite. They (VMI) have a few events that they should be extremely strong in but on the other hand, they have some they are significantly weak in. We are well-rounded and this could play to our advantage.

Wien the search process began, the committee asked the students, faculty I staff to tell them what the committee should look for in a chancellor.

However, these guidelines were vague.

In its efforts to teach what to think instead of how to think, universities across the country have embraced racially divided programs to appease any and all special interest groups. At the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, administrators have given in to the demands of radical student activists who can't seem to live another day without a free standing black cultural center. In this day and age do we need to further separate Americans in the name of Multiculturalism? I don't think Dr. Martin Luther King would agree. This is just another case of symbolism over substance, as Rush Limbaugh would say. If the liberals at UNC really cared about the progress and advancement of minority students, they would reject the request for a black cultural center, and, instead, place their emphasis on higher learning. University admission requirements have been guided by ill-fated racial double standards (affirma­ tive action) far too long. The dangerous side effects of these policies include renewed racial tensions, reduced standards of performance and psychological scars among the intended beneficia­ ries. These side effects were predicted almost a quarter century ago. But like today, when one speaks out against affirmative action, they are immediately branded a racist. How very conve­ nient for those who are scared to debate the necessity of these failed programs. Affirmative action has simply been a disaster for both intergroup relations and minority students as a whole. Thomas Sowell, an economist, senior NMTINI C0UlWTUJPv\T3 && A W-cAim^ wmv V\ AstihHL -Die ^GWT AfeAitJfbT ute , 3>1 ll I s,r't>uteo by Tribune Media Services M ANDERSON. 1817- fellow at the Hoover Institution and a nationally syndicated columnist cites the University of California at Berkely as an example of this disastrous failure. Berkely, which is well known as the pinnacle of cultural diversity, is experiencing an unfortunate trend towards self-imposed segrega­ tion. This separatism is seen in social settings such as sporting events, dining halls and even the classroom. Despite a high level of multicultural programs and affirmative action admission standards, Berkely graduated fewer blacks in 1987 than in 1976. In fact, 70 percent of black students at Berkely fail to graduate. Is this because black students are inferior to other students? No, only a bigot would believe such ignorance. When standards are lowered to admit a higher percentage of black and hispanic students (quotas), it is the black and hispanic students who suffer the most Universities who accept minority students according to affirmative action policies are systematically mismatching the students. This form of discrimination produces a harvest of failure for minorities, bitterness on the part of those who have been discriminated against, and disappoint­ ment for those who were denied admission to better schools despite their above average high school grades and SAT scores. Affirmative action and other programs set up to help minorities have failed. Unfortunately, these programs have not kept up with the changing times in America. What was once a noble idea has now failed both minorities and America. It is time for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Liberal People (NAACLP) to admit this failure and move on to substantive change. The question is not whether minority students are qualified to be admitted to college or law school, but whether or not they are being mismatched with particular institutions. The best selling author of "Liberal Education: defined in this context, meant that I would not verbally endorse or campaign for any candidate, yet it does not absolve me from a civic obligation to vote. As stated by Vice President Douglas Duncan in the April 8 issue of The Appalachian, I was accused of "volunteering my help" to the Adams/Featherston campaign. In truth, I never offered to endorse or campaign for J.D. and Edith or any other ticket. Instead I In defense of onefs questioned integrity To the Editor: I •I COMMENTARY : Over the past year I have worked tirelessly as Academic Affairs Chair of the Student Government Associa­ tion and served the student body through various committees and in other capacities. Considering my efforts and accomplishments, I find it extremely offensive that I am now called upon to defend my actions and character regarding my recent deposing as Academic Affairs Chair. First, I feel a review of the charges that were leveled against me are in order. The most prominent charge is that of breaking a pledge of neutrality in the recent SGA presidential election. Neutrality, as I felt it was extended J.D. and Edith the same courtesy that I offered the other two tickets — to be a resource person for academic information. I never reached a decision about who I would vote for until I read and reviewed the three platforms. The vote that I cast was for a better future of Appalachian State University, not a personal attack on any of the tickets, as some would have you believe. If casting this vote cost me my job, then the democratic process is more hazardous than I imagined. Mr. Duncan stated in the same article that my loyalty to the organi­ zation was questionable. Who was responsible for organizing the Dead Week bill, working with the Faculty Senate in drafting a Grade Appeal policy, pushing for more student voice in the hiring of professors, and pushing for the inclusion of sexual orientation in the non-discriminatory policy of the university? Who has pushed to increase the library collection through the Adopt-a-Book program and working with Friends of the Library? Who was a founding member of the Appalachian Tradi­ tions Task Force? Who was the only delegate to represent Appalachian on the state-wide level last month? Do these sound like the actions of someone who does not have the best interests of students in mind? Examine the Gurley/Duncan platform planks completed. I feel that my record of loyalty to the organization, whose primary function is to serve students, speaks for itself. While Mr. Duncan also mentions my dismissal was not due to a singular event, he has failed to cite any other examples. However, I believe the incident to which he refers may be my decision not to support the recent cancellation of classes bill. I stated two objections to the bill. First, he wanted it to be introduced during elections. I felt that this was ineptly timed, so as to avoid any political stone walls as a result of the election. I offered to pursue it before or after the election but not during. As for the content, I felt it should have more adequately The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus," Dinesh D'Souza, asserts that schools are using affirmative action programs in search of "proportional repre­ sentation." Their goal, according to D'Souza, is to "get a racial breakdown that represents society at large." This may sound well intended, but it excludes direct competition across racial lines. In an attempt to create a microcosm of our society, universities are not really fighting racism as they would like you to think. They are institutionalizing new forms of racism. Affirmative action has not allowed more minority students into colleges over the past twenty years. Instead, it has allowed a change in location for many minority students; therefore, students who have the capacity to succeed at one school are uprooted and enrolled into a much tougher school. This decline in education is brought to you by affirmative action. If these policies are hurting those they intend to help and are causing a dramatic racial divide, a few important questions must be asked: Is the univer­ sity really trying to build a cohesive unit? How long will we have to wait before these problems are properly addressed — problems like separate dorms and yearbooks based on race, imposed speech codes on many campuses, increased accounts of racial violence, and increased pressure by the "diversity police." All of this in the name of diversity, minority enhancement, racial unity, Multiculturalism and equal rights. As you wade through your final years in college remember the age old adage that I most admire: Question authority! If you learn anything while enrolled in a university it should be to buck the system and question the status quo. In this case the status quo is a declining system of higher education in America. Only by pulling together will this nation see better days ahead, not by pulling apart. For the betterment of your country and all Ameri­ cans, help to stop this growing academic rot. reflected the platform plank on the Gurley/Duncan platform to push for noon class cancellation before all breaks, not just Thanksgiving. I was at this point that I requested that neither myself nor my committee be involved with this bill. If Dan Gurley and Doug Duncan do not look for full resolution of their platform promises, then it is true that I do not wish to be a part of their organization. Since it was deemed by Mr. Gurley and Mr. Duncan that I am of unfit character and lack loyalty to the students, I choose not to reapply for Academic Affairs Chair under their or any future Academic Affairs Chair when one is appointed.

Even though the campaign is over, our work has just begun. In fact, applications for staff positions will go out this week and we encourage anyone who is interested to go by the CSIL office in the Student Union to pick one up. Next fall there will be Senator elections and we would like to see a diverse group of people, with or without Student Government experience, to get involved. We hope that even the students who supported one of the other tickets will still play an active role in this university. We, the students, are the reason the university exists. J.D. and I ask that you work with us to help make ASU the best place it can be. Edith Featherston SGA Vice-President Elect Box 21499 Behind Tour Dupont lies the ugly truth To the Editor: It is important that we all are aware of the Tour DuPont bike race taking place in May of this year. When I look around and see the intelligent good-hearted people who I know of as the American population, I am amazed at the tendency of huge corporations to treat us as if we do not know what happens outside of our door. In 1974, scientists con­ nected the production of Chlorofiuorocarbons (CFCs) to long-term damage of our ozone layer, which filters the sun's ultraviolet-B radiation. Dangerous levels of U V-B cause skin cancer, cataracts, suppres­ sion of the immune system for humans and animals, crop failure, and greater devastation. In 1991, Dr. Michael Kurylo of NASA stated, "Everybody should be alarmed about this. It's far worse than we thought." Twenty years later, DuPont, the single largest industrial polluter in the US, is still producing CFCs and they are not supporting the harmless alternatives that have been discov­ ered. Instead, DuPont is attempting to promote HCFCs as an alternative in hopes that they can take over the 2 billion dollar CFC world market. This substitute, which they want to produce and call a substitute, contains chlorine and is damaging to our protective veil between earth and sun. However, this does not sum up their deceitfulness. They are using the media to provide them with a mask of environmental concern. It is much easier to find out about such activities as the Tour DuPont bike race they are promoting, than DuPont's legacy of environmental destruction. Already, in Chile, case researchers have found budding deformation in trees and plants, rabbits and sheep with deformed eyes and severe sunbums among the native population. This is attributable to the massive ozone loss from the Antarctic ozone hole. We the American people have not yet been blinded. We can see, DuPont; your media hype will not fool us.

See SGA page 2 Race-based scholarship policy to be decided (CPS) After three years of heated de­ bate, colleges and universities should soon know what the federal government's policy will be on racespecific scholarships for minorities. In March, Secretary of Education Richard Riley announced his support for the minority scholarships, awarded solely on the basis of race, calling them "desirable, helpful and encouraged." Despite the new administration's sup­ port, experts say a fierce court battle over the legality of the scholarship is still ahead. Although Riley stopped short of is­ suing formal policy guidelines, saying he would wait toreview the results of a year-long study, he made his position clear in a letter to the nation's college and university presidents. In a March 4 letter, Riley said racebased scholarships "can be a valuable tool for providing equal opportunity and forenhancing adiverse educational environment for the benefit of all stu­ dents." Riley's position, which would re­ verse the Bush administration's policy on race-based scholarships, has been applauded by liberal educators and ad­ vocacy groups. "The new policy is very significant," said Beverly Cole, director of educa­ tion for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "R ace -based schol arships are necessary to encourage diversity on campuses, and that's a major part of what a good education is supposed tobe about. Sup­ porting these scholarships is the moral and ethical thing to do." Unlike minority scholarships, which any minority student is eligible for, race-specific scholarships provide finacial assistance for a single minority group only. For instance, a Hispanic student would not be eligible for the University of Maryland's Benjamin Banneker scholarship program. The race-based scholarship is earmarked for academi­ cally talented African Americans. The number of students receiving such scholarships is small. A 1991 survey conducted by the Washington based American Council on Education reported that only about 1 percent of college students receive aid under mi­ nority scholarship programs, and only 45,000 have race-specific scholarships. Nevertheless, many educators say the Department of Education would be making a strong statement. "We welcome what Riley has done," said David Merkowi tz, director of pub­ lic affairs at the American Council on Education. "His position clearly sup­ ports minority issues." The debate over race-based scholar­ ships began in 1990, when Michael Williams, then-assistant secretary for the Education Department's Office for Civil Rights, warned Fiesta Bowl offi­ cials about contributing $100,000 to each of the schools fielding a team in the annual college football game in Tempe, Ariz. Fiesta Bowl officials planned to con­ tribute the money to the University of Louisville and University of Alabama for a Martin Luther King Jr. scholarship. Williams concluded that the dona­ tion violated provisions of the 1964 Civil R ights Act, and thereforecolleges awarding race-based scholarships would risk losing federal funds, hi a 1991 policy statement, then Education Secretary Lamar Alexander supported the ban on race-based scholarships, but shied away from making it complete, saying the scholarships could be funded using private money. "That policy was in keeping with the Bush admini strat ion's philosophy,"said Cole, of the NAACP. "Those scholar­ ships were developed to increase diver­ sity on campuses. That's what they were doing, so why disallow them? There was no reason to interpret them as against the law. They were never interpreted that way before." The policy caused an uproar in Con­ gress, and, after a House panel branded the policy "legally insupportable," it was put on hold until a study by the General Accounting Office was con­ ducted. The results of the GAO study, which Riley has said he will review carefully, are due to be released soon. Although noofficial policy has been implemented, many officials say they are grateful to Riley for clearing up some of the confusion. Other lawsuits may determine the legality of the schol­ arships. �-» The Appalachian Thursdax.

THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY, April 15, 1993 Appaloosa is Friday By KELLIE WELBORN Staff Writer IS In Three great bands are coming together for what the A.P.P.S. concert council is calling "Appaloosa." The Amateurs and Col. Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit will both open for headliner Toad the Wet Sprocket, Friday, April 16 in the Varsity Gym.

Bruce Hampton, who recorded "Music to Eat" in 1970 under the name Hampton Grease Band, is back dishing out a little more of his twisted and unusual style. His current sound has been described by CD Review as having "ab­ sorbed every style of American music there ever was (blues, gospel, country, jazz, funk, boogie, rock...you name it it's in there)," and gave ARU's new self-titled album a 10 out of 10 rating.

Tickets are $3 for students and $5 for nonstudents and can be purchased at Farthing Auditorium. Formore information call 262-6084. Geary, a Chicago native, grew up in Tulsa, OK. She earned a B.A. degree cum laude in French and literature at Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, Ind., and spent a summer in the French School of Middlebury College in Ver­ mont. Taking her M.M. degree in piano from Indi­ ana University, she studied with Frederick Baldwin, the distinguished chairman of the pi­ ano department. After two years of study in Paris, where she received a French government scholarship, she began a concert career which has taken her across the United States, Mexico and Western Europe. She is widely recognized for her interpreta­ tion of Debussy and Ravel, as well as of their lesser-known contemporary MauriceEmmanuel. Geary is an avid student of French culture in many forms. Under the auspices of the Alliance Francaise in the United States, she has given a series of recitals in French piano music with her Frenchlanguage commentary. Her repertoire, however, is varied and her versatility as an artist has been noted by both the American and European press.

Two career minded young women accidentally meet in the apart­ ment that both rent, unknown to each other, through the unscrupulous machinations of their landlord. Many discoveries follow which take the observer from titters to guffaws. Morton calls the play "a romance in real life." The play is directed by Charlene Lentz. Chrystalollisplays JoanCox and Jenny Norfleet plays Jenny Box. The landlord, Mr. Bouncer, is played by Peter Finnegan. Karen Wilhelm is stage manager. "Watson!" is written and directed by C.F. Morgan III. "Watson!" can be described as a traditional Sherlock Holmes mystery with a twist. Holmes, played by Dave Furr, is a genius at crime investigation, as he should be, but with one endearing quality. He has a tenacity for egotism and superiority. Dr.John Watson, played by Chris Young, on the other hand, tolerates Holmes, but no more. Watson can no longer accept Holmes' treatment and decides to beat him at his own game — crime investigation. The results are high, the wits fly and the egos overinflate in this Sherlock Holmes parody. Other cast members are Jennifer Klein, Dave Early and Scott Stephens. Carol Barlow is stage manager, assisted by Sam Smith. The third farce, "Augustus Does His Bit" by G.B. Shaw, is directed by Robin E. Bates. En­ trusting an important list of gun emplacements to Augustus' high castle was a mistake on the part of the British military. Augustus, played by Jason Stewart, travels to the small town of Pifflington to recruit its inhabitants to "do their bit" for their country. He encounters a woman, played by Maria Smith, who has a bet tocon him out of the valuable list. Adding to his troubles is the hilarious clerk, played by D. Kirk Hewitt, who refuses to be impressed by Augustus' power or position. Intrigue and humor abound in this Shaw satire. Stage manager for the production is Sarah Thomas.

GANTT Staff Writer Appalachian State's baseball team returned from a 4-2 road swing to face Virginia Tech Tuesday, falling to the Hokies in disappointing fashion, 10-5. Tuesday's match-up was the first of the season for the Mountaineers at Lackey Field. Catcher Shane Owenby played well defensively, throwing out a would-be Hokie base stealer and starting a run­ down play with a fine throw to second base cutting down another Virginia Tech runner. Then came the fourth inning, and that's when the wheels fell off for the Mountaineers. Virgini a Tech scored ftve inthe fourth with only three singles, benefitting from some well-placed sacrifices and a wild pitch by Russell. The Mountaineers fought back gamely adding single runs in the fifth and seventh innings to close the gap to 5-4, but VPI added four in the eighth and one in the ninth to stretch their lead to 10-4. First baseman Kenny Osborne opened the bottom of the ninth in dra­ matic fashion, stroking a solohome run to start a modest rally. However, VirginiaTech quieted the ASU hopes, seal­ ing a 10-5 victory. Bonner was the offensive star for ASU, rapping out three hits and knocking in three runs. The loss dropped ASU to 10-22 for the season. Things were better for the Mountain­ Appalachian Photo by Paul Lampe eers last week as they travelled to their SLUGGERS LOSE IN HOME OPENER: The Mountaineers played their makeshift home in Granite Falls on jbneopener against Virginia Tech on Tuesday, falling 10-5. ASUnow stands 10- Wednesday to face non-conference foe Montreat-Anderson. ASU won the first game 4-1, behind an excellent pitching day from Chris Vullo. ASU was equally impressive in the nightcap, winning 4-2 on a combined two-hitter by Freshman Garth Armstrong and Gonsiorowski. Catcher Randy DeBruhl went onefor-two with two RBI and two runs scored. Last weekend, ASU travelled toHuntington, WV to play the Thundering Herd of Marshall. The Mountaineers lost the opener on Saturday 3-2. Marshall opened the game with three quick runs off ASU starter Gary Davis. ASU rallied for single runs in the eighth and ninth, but they could not overcome Marshall's early lead. Davispitched well in defeat, allowing only six hits, while striking out six. ASU won Sunday's opener, 7-2, with five runs in the seventh, capped by DeBruhl's three-run homer. Lefty Scott Musgrave earned the complete game victory, allowing only three hits. Everyone got into theact in the night­ cap, withnearly every ASU starterscor­ ing a run or knocking one in for the 84 victory. The two victories pushed ASU'scon­ ference record to 5-9, good for seventh in the Southern Conference.

By SHANNON McGINNIS Staff Writer The AppalachianState women's ten­ nis team suffered two losses and a for­ feit, bringing their record to 8-11 for the year. The Lady Mountaineers first lost to East Tennessee State University 7-2 on April 7 at the President's Courts in Boone. In singles, the Lady Apps fourthseed Alice Heigerd won her match 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. Kimberly Fritts took the sixth seed singles match with a score of 7-6, 7-2, 6-2 in a match that ASU Head Coach Gene Fields thought was impressive. "This is her senior year, she's going for it," said Fields. "She's doing ex­ actly what she ought to be doing." Heigerd and Fritts boast the two best record for the Lady Mountaineer squad and have the total conf dcncc of Fields. "Both of these girls have played re­ ally solid singles all year long," said Fields. Peggy Wein lost a tough match at third seed singles in three sets 4-6,6-3, 3-6.

Carrie Hogg also achieved a per­ sonal best by ntnning the 800 meters in a time of 2:16.8 and Shari Miller threw the discus 124.7 feet. The rain cancelledseveral of the other events in the meet. "It rained sohard that we did not even let our triple jumpers compete," said Weaver. "With the hurdlers, the rain caused many of themto feel like it was not going to be a very productive situ­ ation, so we didn't make them run. Overall Weaver was pleased with his team's performances in the events they participated in. The Appalachian men also continued to get strong performances despite taking only 14 athletes on the trip. Jamie Griggs broke his personal record in only his second performance in the steeplechase with a time of 9:31:81. Steve Simandle finished the same event at 9:42:53.

Appalachian was scheduled to play Furman on April 18th, but the Lady Apps were forced to forfeit the match due to their late arrival. The win pushed the Lady Paladins to an undefeated season. The Lady Mountaineers lost to Winthrop in Rock Hill, SC on April 13 by the score of 7-2. "We were outplayed in every posi­ tion," said Fields.

'liting Manager may be reached at 262-2157; the editorial stag may be reached at fs time prepare to ,or fall Semester '93 By LORRIE GANTT Commentary Editor As a sincere advocate of individual responsibility and limited government, I find it difficult and painful to witness the deterioration of these and other qualities in America. For the past few months President Bill Clinton has been promoting his economic plan with enthusiasm and conviction, while I have watched and listened with growing alarm. His plans for our future work against the principles that make America great. I have reached the sobering, but predicted, conclusion that President Clinton is not going to lead this nation to economic, domestic and international stability. I would even venture further to say it is my fear that this self-proclaimed "ambassador of change" will lure the United States into the ruinous system of Socialism. America was founded on the freedom of the individual and a limited government that would provide little more than protection from the rest of the world and from those who would break the law. Our government adopted the Constitution as the standard for this nation, and that standard promised no one happiness or success, only the opportunity for individuals to seek personal satisfaction on their own. Socialism, on the other hand promises every one a job, an education, medical attention, and govern­ ment intervention in all aspects of everyday life. People living under a socialist government are not allowed to make individual decisions; they don't have to because the government has control. Slaves ^^ of Socialism and big government are not allowed to Throughout his campaign President Clinton reminded the American people time and time again about our nation's crumbling economy and domestic situation. "We need to reinvest in America," he said. Unfortunately his plan to stimulate our economy and "reinvest" in areas of domestic concern includes redistribution — an obvious characteristic of Socialism. Taxing the rich more because they can afford to pay a little extra is certainly a noble idea; however, it is blatantly unAmerican. Taking more from those who have more so that those with less can have more eventually creates a society where no one has more that any one else. Redistribution destroys our Constitutional right to "the pursuit of happiness" by setting a limit on success. Bitter Americans today, who no longer support our system of Capitalism, eagerly commend our president for his valiant effort to relieve the suffering lower classes. They are people who no longer posses the motivation and confidence to assume individual responsibility; they look to our federal government for whatever kinds of assistance they can wring out of its all-too-accessible and already bankrupt pockets. In a society where citizens are allowed and encouraged to exceed their potentiality there will be a difference in economic classes, for no one possesses the same amount,or exact design, of potential. Winston Churchill said, "Capitalism is the uneven distribution of wealth, and Socialism the even distribution of poverty." Everyone is average; everyone is equal. Many countries throughout the world have tested the effects of Socialism and big government and have found them to be negative and unproductive. Eastern European countries such as Sweden, Middle Eastern countries such as Syria, and several Latin American countries are turning away from wide­ spread government intervention. Their people suffer from the good intentions of Socialist programs. They have proven the ineffectiveness of a government with too much power. And they are taking steps toward privatization and individual responsibility. Though the steps may be as small as allowing a bakery in Syria to break free from the government, nations across the globe are at least headed in the right direction. Why then must America move towards a more powerful government in the face of proven failure? How can 'he people of this nation approve of and accept the direction our current administration is taking us? Yes, the United States needs more jobs, Appalachian prepares fornextyear, the problems oflast year mustbe kept :ly in mind. Appalachian seems to always have a lack of space—residence space, parking space and classroom space just to name a few. When nts return in the fall, the campus will be short one parking lot (Edgewood )and one residence hall (Newland). S ince next year thecampus will beeven r of space than this year, some serious planning must be done. Htsidence Life has a goal of having 100 percentoccupancy by the end of the id week of classes. To work for this goal, occupancy mustbe over-booked 0 to 75 students so that when students fail to show up or withdraw from "1, the residence halls will still be filled.

Affairs, Dr. Ward Zimmerman, that . n'ng is needed to keep these residents out of poor living con i io e- of this state by failing to provide proper and necessary educational resources for its citizens. For the students of today will be tomorrow's leaders, and hopefully those leaders will comprise an educated, taxpaying citizenry. ASU has a library that is consis­ tently rated as one of the poorest in the UNC system, in fact, ranking 16 better schools, as well as a more efficient health care system, but why must we look to the federal government in our time of need? Is it necessary to surrender more of our individual responsibilities and freedoms, and to invite our government to manage and manipulate our lives? The answers to our economic and domestic troubles are not to be found in the White House, or in Washington D.C. The people of the United States have proven themselves capable of creating solutions. But a cloud of apathy and government dependence now hovers over the good citizens of this country, and, unfortunately, President Clinton is ready and willing to oblige. He is all-too-eager to please the people and provide for them, bless his heart. He wants government to become more involved with the well-being of the people; however, his plans only increase the hold that our federal government has on our personal lives, decisions and freedoms. President Clinton wants to provide jobs, educa­ tion, medical attention and government intervention for everyone in need. Imagine the stability and security of knowing that everyone possessed adequate means, that everyone was equal. Then exercise a small amount of logic and think of how powerful the federal government would be if the American people had to depend on President Clinton and Congress for their livelihood. There would be no need for individual responsibility, competition or excellence. The pursuit of happiness would become obsolete, and the shadow of Socialism lurking behind our Republic would materialize and disable the United States of America. In his inaugural address, President Clinton said "There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America." I believe those words with sincere confidence. This nation is great; her people are free to be imaginative and resourceful. And by offering or striving to assume our individual responsibilities the federal govern­ ment insults the intelligence of the people. We are slowly allowing ourselves to be led down the road to Socialism because the road is lined with powerhungry politicians wearing masks of compassion. But the end is ruin. President Clinton's plans for our future will not cure what is wrong with America; they will make our problems worse. The people of the United States are not average. We must prove ourselves worthy of independence and individual freedom. out of 16 in several standard catego­ ries of measure. This must be corrected. In spite of this dismal fact, we have one of the finest universities in the system. Just think where we could go if we were funded fairly and properly, something that hasn't happened in recent years. I ask that you give serious consid­ eration to including monies for ASU's Belk Library in your delibera­ tion of the bond package later this spring. I specifically ask for money for library renovation and acquisi­ tions. The students of ASU are more concerned with what is in the building rather than the size of the building itself. Dr. Mary Reichel, the university librarian, indicated the same to me in a recent conversation. Recently the students of ASU have had to resort to other devices to fulfill the role the state of North Carolina is constitutionally mandated to fulfill. For the past two years, the Senior Class Gift has been a donation to the library. The situation is so bad that student groups have started having fund raisers, not for their own projects, but for the library, and donating any funds generated to help improve our sub-standard library. Our situation has become this desperate. ASU critically needs funds to renovate the existing library and to expand its collections. Ample documentation is available to verify my claims. I sincerely hope you will give consideration to this worthy request as you set about your important work this spring. I suggest you speak to Dr. Reichel yourself for further information. I certainly will be pleased to assist in any manner possible. Thank you.

BRACHEAR Staff Writer Appalachian State University stu­ dents, staff and faculty returning in the fall will have new photo identification cards made to accomodate next year's new card-reading system. Students are required to come April 19-23 and April 26-27 in the East Wing of Welborn Hall from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Faculty and staff IDs will be made there April 28-30. Ron Dubberly, Appalachian's iden­ tification center director said the new card will have many new advantages over the current plastic. Manufactured to American Bankers Association stan­ dards, the new card will be industry standard size, the same shape and size as a credit card. The card will be higher density and more durable. More data can be recorded on the ABA magnetic stripe making the new cards more ver­ satile. Because of the installation of the new card reader system on residence halls information encoded on them will be harder to erase. This will ensure resi­ dents of gaining access into their resi­ dence halls. "This was one of the major deciding factors that we needed to con­ vert the card," Dubberly said. Next fall, card readers wil be in­ stalled at entrances toGardner, Coltrane, and Justice residence halls during reno­ vation between May and August. Other residence halls will receive new read­ ers later, Dubberly said. The current cards adopted in 1981 are 3M size, larger than a standard credit card. The proprietary magnetic Cancellation bill passed, visit announced By MANYA A. BRACHEAR Staff Writer SGA senators passed a bill Tuesday to recommend the cancellation of classes beginning at or after 12 noon Wednesdayspriorto Thanksgiving. The three candidates for chancellorship will visit the campus, said President Dan Gurley. Also, announcement was made of Tom Beaman's dismissal from the position of chairman of Academic Af­ fairs. The request for the calendar change is to provide for safety and convenience for out-of-state students.. SGA Senator Andrew Bauer from New Jersey said,"I believe our safety is a little more important than our calen­ dar. I don't think the calendar is even an issue." Both Resident Assistants and Resi­ dent Directors showed support, as well, due to the inconvenience of students who have classes after the residence halls are scheduled to close. Vice President Doug Duncan said that he had consulted Brooks McCloud of the Scheduling and Calendar Com­ mittee who said that the new schedules had already been decided for the next two years. However, if deemed neces­ sary, Chairman Dr. Doug Jenkins could reconvene the committee for reconsid­ eration of the issue. Duncan said the reasons behind the dismissal of Tom Beaman as Chairman of Academic Affairs was not due to a By SUZILANDIS News Editor Students are now vying for approxi­ mately 6,000 on-campus parking spaces.

Students seeking replacement IDs presently receive two ID cards, a tem­ porary ID and a permanent card about three weeks later. The new IDs will be produced on campus, eliminating the need for temporary cards and saving about half the cost of making the cards. Dubberly estimated the cost of the new system at $25,000. It will be paid for through money saved with the new system over the next two years.

After taking a solid pledge of neu­ trality at the beginning of spring semes­ ter, Duncan said that Beaman volun­ teered his help to the ticket of presiden­ tial candidate J.D. Adams and vice presi­ dential candidate Edith Featherston. "It was that along with events prior to that, that made me question his loyal­ ties to the organization and his credibil­ ity," Duncan said. Beaman said he chose to support Adams and Featherston after reviewing theirplatforms following Spring Break. "I cannot agree with the decision to to relieve me of my duties a month before the year ends. "I chose to vote for J.D. and Edith because of his and her platform," he said. President Dan Gurley also announced that the top three candidates for the Chancellor's position will be on the campus April 19-22. The Chancellor's Search committeewill meet April 23 to finalize their choices for a recommen­ dation to the Board of Trustees. Gurley said that UNC President C.B. Spangler will make a recommendation to the Board of Governors, possibly in the June meeting. Off-campus Affairs Chairman Amy Carver commended Senator Mark Millis on his success in the "Tipsy Taxi" pro­ gram. Millis mapped out the AppalCART stops near apartment com­ plexes, restaurants and popular hang­ outs and presented routes to AppalCART's Chris Turner. Turner's drivers determined the time tables for each route. The bus will run Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights between 10:30 p.m. and 2 a.m. The $25,000 cost for the program will come out of student fees. J �The Appalachian. T h u r s d a y .

It is his job to see that Appalachian students and other Boone residents safely reach their destinations on time. The AppalCART routes often provide public service. Gates picks up those who are physically challenged and those from human service agen­ cies. USA LAUGHLIN l^ttera Editor Gates enjoys this aspect of his job. "I like working with older people," he said. "People don't realize how many people need [the AppalCART service]." As well as driving the buses, Gates is also a driver dispatcher. He helps keep theroutes coor­ dinated, communicates with the drivers, and supervises about 30 employees. It is the supervising aspect of his job that Gates finds the most difficult. He often must juggle many things at once. Gates said that Boone's latest snow storm caused many problems with the AppalCART routes. Several buses were stranded on Beech Mountain, and the drivers and riders stayed in a hotel together. Any suggestionsor comments are welcome in regard to the bus service. They often send out surveys and take requests. One suggestion that iscurrently underconsid­ eration is the Night Owl/Tom Cat routes. The AppalCART drivers would extend their hours Appalachian photo by Randy Keinink and drive routes from 10:30 to 2:30 am. The buses would run from local restaurants and APPALCART DRIVER PROVIDES SERVICE: Tom Gates has been working with the AppalCART Service the past eleven years.

Foundations are set up by wealthy families or corporations. For example, the R.J. Reynolds Foundation is a large supporter of the N.C. arts. Foundations award grants for two reasons according to Poole. Grants are tax deductible and funding non-profit organizations boosts the image of the foundation and gives them a good reputation in the community. Public foundations do not usually set moral restrictions on the awards they grant but if they can retract a grant if they aredissatisfied with the finished product. Private foundations usually specify their demands at the time the award is given, said Poole. According to Poole, a new trend is artists giving their excess money to friends who need funding. This, however, jeopardizes their ever getting another grant. Grant writers find foundations to request money from in the "Foundation Directory" or "Foundations: Grant givers of $100,000 or more," books which contain listings of grant givers and supply a short list of criteria for the grant. In art agencies, grant writing is usually done by an arts administrator who has a master's degree in artsadministration, according toPoole. Few agencies hire an employee to simply write their grants because there is not enough money to do so. According to Poole, most administration pro­ grams offer only one class in grant writing even though 70 percent of an art administrator's job is spent grant writing. "Most universities do not consider grant writing important in being a good administrator, " said Poole, "but this is untrue because without the ability to get funds, there is no agency." Grant writingis also necessary in some public relations positions which do not necessarily require master's degrees. Erica Stacy, director of public relations at Montgomery Memorial Hospital, said that she regrets that she never took a class in grant writing because she has had to pick up the skill on the job. So what is the best way to learn grant writing? A very good way is through courses offered by the Grantsmanship Center in Los Angeles, said Dr. T. J. Aram, an English professor at ASU. The center offers intensive three- and fiveday workshops. The first two days are spent learning prospecting or how to research for See GRANTS page 4 Center helps students make career plans gaining metal that used to be my car. e reached my house, and I ran into my ^ screaming.

Dr. David Ball, the center's director, said "The key to using the center's resources suc­ cessfully is to start early." With that in mind, students can well use the center starting in the their freshman year, when they are exploring career options. Resources in the center enable the student to research career areas that are of interest. Asa sophomore,the student can use the center to decide what area of study best suits his career goals. The center's staff help the student arrange meetings with people in careers that interest him,possibly spending some timeon the job with a person in such a career. As a junior, the student can receive ideas from the center's career counselors on experimental learning opportunities, whether through volun­ teer work in an area of career interest or internships. Seniors can use the center to re­ search prospective employers, to network, to develop an effective resume, and to interview with firms that come to campus. "We try to assist our students in making a smooth transition from academia to the profes­ sional workplace," Ball said. "As you can tell from the services we offer from the freshman year to the senior year and beyond, it is an ongoing process." Kathy Sack, assistant director in career coun­ seling and organizer of the upcoming Governmental Career Fair Day on April 14, recommends that students use the career fair day as "an information-getting device." Twenty- five to 30 different governmental employers will be represented at the fair. Students can use this opportunity to"let the employer know their career interests," Sack said. "The employer is recruiting the student as much as the student is trying to get information from the employer." Sack suggests that students bring resumes to the fair if they are actively looking for employment or an internship, get the business cards of indi­ viduals whose firms interest them and an application if possible.

Anril 8. 1991 Grants Continued from page 3 money while the last three days are spent learning to write grants. The five-day workshop costs around $500 but is highly effective, said Arant. Graduates from the center in the last five years average $150,000 a year. The center offers 40 workshops around the country per year and is holding a workshop in High Point, N.C. in early May. Aside from teaching how to write grants, the workshops are also a good place for those looking for work to network with company executives. An alternative to a degree in arts administration is a master's degree in business administration. Arant stressed that grant writing is not simply asking for money. "Suc­ cessful grant writing is a matter of being able to access an organization's needs and address those needs," said Arant. "Grant writing is very persua­ sive and success comes more with passion. "If you're working for a place you believe in, that is the most rewarding work you can do," said Arant. He explained that grant writers do more than just write if they are successful.

Morris commented that the specifics of the case were held back for the pro- McCraw Cardwell The players then returned to Boone and were informed of the details surround­ ing their suspensions by Morris. The following week, Appalachian's Athletic Department issued a statement that the players were suspended for academic reasons. "The players were in violation of the ASU Student-Athlete Academic Disci­ tection of the players, not for him or ASU's Athletic Department. "I don't want to hurt the future of these men by commenting on the inci­ dents that led up to their suspensions. There are negative factors, but for their sake, I don't want to make them pub­ lic," Morris said. Cardwell said that Morris told him on March 20 that it wasn't so much the failure to report that caused his dis­ missal, but that there were 24 other incidents that he could have been sus­ pended for. Cardwell said he was un­ sure as to why Morris had not previ­ ously alerted him of these incidents. "I think Coach Morris used this as an excuse to get rid of what he perceived as two problem players. I think he just wanted to relieve himself of some pres­ sure, and this was the easiest way for him to do it," Cardwell said. Cardwell, hitting .050 this season, was visibly unhappy about his demo­ tion to the bench early in the season. McCraw was off to one of his best starts in years, but his disciplinary history at ASU has been checkered at best and well-documented. Morris said that the accumulation of charges was a factor in the suspensions, and that he told both Cardwell and McCraw before the season that "they couldn't afford any more strikes against them." Morris noted also that Cardwell's statement about the "24 incidents" was accurate, but he didn't know why Cardwell would want to bring them up.

With eleven seconds remaining in the see-saw battle, Michigan's Chris Webber drove home the nails in the Wolverine coffin by calling a time-out that Michigan did not have. The Tarheels were awarded two techinal free throws, which Donald Williams sank smoothly .Williams was fouled on North Carolina's next pos­ session, and after two more free-throws, the celebration in Chapel Hill began. The title was the first for North Caro­ lina since 1982, when Michael Jordan hit a shot on the same floor to bring home the hardware. Fred Brown, then a Georgetown Hoya, must know exactly how Webber feels after the bluff that could have meant the game. In the championship game in 1982, Brown gave a chest-past to the Tarheel's James Worthy on the last possession of the game. Donald Williams was the key to the North Carolina win, hitting big shot after big shot to keep theTarheels close. Williams finished the game with 25 points and was named the Final Four's most valuable player. Eric Montross, North Carolina's monster-in-the-middle, did his part by scoring 16 points, grabbing five boards, and causing traffic jams in the middle of the Wolverine offense. The inside threat of Montross and the outside sharpshooting of Williams caused too many problems for the Michigan defense. George Lynch finished out his fine career at North Carolina by scoring 12 points and grabbing ten boards. Webber has much more to remember about his experience in the most cel­ ebrated college game than calling an ill-advised time-out. Webber ended up with 23 points and 11 rebounds in what could have possibly been his last game as a collegian. Jimmy King added 15 points for the Wolverines on 6 of 13 shooting. Jalen Rose chipped in 12 points and dished out four assists. The Wolverines' loss was their sec­ ond in as many years in the champion­ ship game and whether or not the "Fab Five" will be intact to make another run in 1994 remains to be seen. he lure of extreme sports like sky diving or spelunking: risk Appalachian pnoto by karla Smith P?JUMPING m BOONE: ASU students paUomz^Bungee Unlim'le (>xirr>ately one year before closing due to ladcoj^^^^ (CPS) The risk factor is usually high and the excitement level near feverish. Poor judgement can mean injury, sometimes even death in hard-core downhill skiing, snowboarding, in-line skating, road luge, sky diving and bungee jumping. Yet, a growing num­ ber of people in their twenties are seek­ ing recreational outlets in such extrem­ ist sports. The extremists generally speak in a language all but unintelligible to the average person. Surfers "get tubed," sky divers make "HALO drops," ex­ treme skiers watch for "decaying corices," rock climbers "place pro," and yet all of them share a love for gutwrenching adventure. "It is only through direct confrontation...only by staring into the naked faceof death that we discover the true nature of self," said Stan Lindemuth, a rock-climbing junior at Clarion Uni­ versity in Pennsylvania. When "the strength of your finger­ tips is all that separates you from a 120foot fall to your death, you start to get rather deliberate," Lindemuth said. This viewpoint reflects the premise of the rock climber. Climbing has moved into mainstream with exposure through movies like "K-2. Extremist sports, Lindemuth said, are "a healthy and socially responsible way of getting high." A growing number of universities throughout the United States have started adventure-based clubs and or­ ganizations. One such group is Penn State University's Outing Club, which sponsors trips for spelunking, sky div­ ing and rock climbing at a Bellefonte, Pa. quarry. Another characteristic of the twentysomething generation is an in­ creased concern with environmental issues. The extremist enthusiasts are no exception to this. "The cool thing about (the quarry at) Bellefonte is that an old environmental scar has been transformed into some­ thing useful," said Andy Amdi, presi­ dent of Penn Slate's Recreation and Parks Professional Society. Members of the Penn State Outing Club have made it part of their mission to maintain the climbing site. Spelunking, or cave exploration, is another such adventure sport that has gained enthusiasts in increasing num­ bers over the past several years. Extremist sports are nota realm where the timid or the reckless can safely venture.

Assistant Coach Troy Heustess said the squad is not showing any ill effects from the loss of McCraw and Cardwell, "We lost a big bat in McCraw but I think the level of intensity among the team has risen. Everybody knows we have to come together and overcome this." There was talk among those involved in the incident about getting a medical or personal redshirt for Cardwell. To be eligible for a redshirt under NCAA sanctions, a player must have played in less than 20 percent of his squad's games. Cardwell played in eight games this season, which means Appalachian would have to play 41 games for Cardwell to be eligible. Not counting a doubleheader with North CarolinaGreensboro that was supposed to be made up Wednesday, ASU will play a total of 38 games this year, weather permitting. It is therefore conceivable that ASU could play the required 41 when the Southern Conference Tour­ nament is included. Whether or not Laney would sign the necessary papers is unclear. Earlier, Laney said that he would not sign any papers that would impugn his integrity. Cardwell appears resigned to the rtP ality of the situation. *• Featuring the 'ffesf Comedians In The Nation MINOR'S PRINTING The, * CoMedY THE ONLY PLACE IN BOONE FOR zme COLOR COPIFr .

If not, drastic cuts will have to be made to adent services. Student fees have been frozen for the last two years, once by the general •ministration and once by the state legislature. The state legislature declared alit would not permit the board of governors to introduce a proposal for an erase in student fees until a study was completed and presented on the lent fee structure of the 16 schools in the University of North Carolina tern. The study is scheduled to be presented to the legislature in May. After presentation, Appalachian can submit a proposal of fee increases to the jd of trustees. Fee increases usually go through at least five different formal steps before -fare finally approved by the state legislature. First, the chancellor and vice :ellors must form a budget. Second, the administration tries to propose the budget to the students through the student government association. Third, ^rd of trustees must approve the fee proposal. Fourth, the board of j makes a request to the general administration for fee approval .Finally, board of governors votes to approve the fees. As it currently stands, student health services is now operating $200,000 in red. If student fees are not increased, there will be severe cuts in health ces to students, probably meaning longer lines and more charges for ceutical supplies.

All of these areas receipt supported, meaning they are completely supported by student fees ^eive no further monetary aid from the state.

LONG Guest Columnist With theelection of President Bill Clinton, who has been touted as a more socially progressive and inclu­ sive leader, it seems that a new era of tolerance has begun in America. Not so, according to North Caro­ linians Against Racial and Religious Violence (NCARRV). During the two weeks of ASU's ex­ tended spring break, the NCARRV flooded the media with itsstatistical findings, which indicate an increase in hate crimes within the state during 1992. This increase occurred despite the passage of the Ethnic Intimidation Act of 1991, a la w intended to punish any crime committed because of a victim's race, religion, or ethnicity. A victim's sexual preference is not included in the act, which evoked criticism from the NCARRV since the largest rise in incidents fell under the category of gay-bashing. The NCARRV also criticized the jus­ tice system for its failure to use this law to the fullest possible extent, citing a mere 24 cases prosecuted during 1992. Judges throughout the state claim that it is far more difficult to prove a crime was hate-related than to convict on the basis of the crime alone. This improves the court's odds on putting a criminal behind bars, and that is the intent after all, isn't it? Proving the motive of a defendant is a complicated task compared to proving that a crime has been committed, as we may soon discover from the outcome of the civil rights trial of the four L.A. policemen who beat Rodney King. The idea that a person should be prosecuted for his motive rather than for his crime is pure folly. What is the reward in punishing one assailant more than another simply because one muttered a racial slur while attacking and the other did not? Both victims are equally injured and should be equally outraged. To suggest otherwise is to infer that one victim is of a lesser value simply because one's feelings are not hurt along with one's body. A hate crime is not a tolerable act, but an injustice Election Committee pleased with debate To the Editor: I am writing in response to the article "Student turnout low for debate," April 1. As the SGA should be viewed as intolerable even where prejudice is not apparent in the perpetrator. The Ethnic Intimidation Act is little more than a new approach toward controlling free speech and acquiring political power by linking undesired opinions with hate crimes. Does any of this sound familiar in the context of collegiate academics? It should. The Ethnic Intimi­ dation Act is no different in principle than the speech codes that some American universities imposed on their campuses in the 1980s, which have since been rejected by the U.S. Supreme Court. The law has now /^n EDiTors, •ms AfPAcAcmAM HI Appalachian cartoon by James A. Long thrust our police and judges into the role of "thought police," judging the citizenry by its opinions rather than by its actions. Fortunately for us, our courageous public servants have thus far resisted the temptation to use/abuse this law to coincide with the standards of the NCARRV. Instead, the task of enforcement has been adopted by the campus elite, the professors and faculty of our universities. Elections Committee Chair, I was responsible for the execution of the debate. As the article accurately reported, the debate had to be rescheduled because of the cancella­ tion of classes. However, I consider the headline and the first two paragraphs grossly misleading. Certainly "approximately 45 students" is not a significant percent­ age of the ASU student body, but by no means unusual or low for the annual debate. In fact, the debate was attended by more students this year than last. This year's debate was also implemented with more order and less chaos. Compared to debates in years past, this one had an average or high attendance, with only four days to plan and publicize. In an interview, the first question During a recent visit to our campus, a representa­ tive of the Washington-based watchdog group Accu­ racy in Academia warned of a frightening future trend in campus speech suppression. Some in our education system have suggested that the Ethnic Intimidation Act should be applied to those who write letters or commentary columns that could be considered offen­ sive to some members of the community. Over the past two months, a healthy and vigorous debate has ensued within The Appalachian's Commentary Page. The subject: the Clinton administration's plan to allow homosexuals in the military. If these guardians of truth have their way, any student who has written a letter to this paper that is in any way non-supportive of the gay community could be charged with a hate crime. Does this also mean that a letter in opposition to multicultural curriculums will attract an arrest war­ rant? Will the next critique of affirmative action result in late-night knocks at the writer's door? The implications of Accuracy in Academia's prediction, if even remotely true, are chilling. If this is allowed, university advocates of speech codes will have no need for them, they will simply defer to the law of the state to intimidate the student body into silence. Equally disturbing is the gall and arrogance displayed by those educators who would propose such persecu­ tion of students for their beliefs. The purpose of the law is to define crime and to determine and administer the appropriate punishment when such crimes are committed. The First Amend­ ment to the Constitution of the United States serves to protect our freedom of self-expression, and to keep what we say from being defined as a crime and from being punished as such. Unless we, as citizens, are vigilant and wary, the abuse of laws such as the Ethnic Intimidation Act will remove this protection and suppress one of our most valuable freedoms. Faculty members of our state college system who suggest the use of the Ethnic Intimidation Act against the free speech of their students deserve nothing less than our contempt and disgust, for their closed-mindedness is a disgrace to their profession. asked to me by Hoyle Koontz, the reporter covering the debate, was "How do you feel about the low turnout?" Though I went on to inform him of the broader perspec­ tives and history of the event, apparently it did not fit into his "angle." This leads me to believe that his story was already written without researching his subject. On a more personal note, I was offended by the assertion in the article that "the candidates coordi­ nated efforts to reschedule the debate." The members of the Elections Committee -Kara Morch, Dawn Fox, Mark Gaines, Marc Millis and myself- worked long and hard to put together a forum so the students would be able to decide who to vote for. Frankly, the candidates, though cooperative, merely showed up when and where we asked them to. The article about the debate did not reflect the tireless efforts of the Elections Committee. In the future, accuracy should not be sacrificed for publica­ tion quickness that lacks research.

Richard Blackwelder and Deidre Martin received 19.6 percent and cur­ rent SGA president, Dan Gurley and running mate David Cox received 17.5 percent. By electing us, the students showed that they are ready for leadership that will bridge the gap between students and SGA," said Adams. Featherston said she was pleased J.D. Adams and Edith Featherston with the support they received through­ out the campaign. "I appreciate all the support we had campus wide," said Featherston. "The hard work has definately paid off." Adams and Featherston won the off campus vote and all the residence halls except for Coffey Hall. Of the 1,625 votes cast, Adams and Featherston re­ ceived 1,022 votes, Blackwelder and Martin received 318, and the Gurley and Cox ticket received 285 votes. Adams said he is now concentrating on selecting a diverse cabinet com­ posed of students withSGA experience and students without prior SGA in­ volvement. The first thing Adams will focus on next fall is increasing the number of non-SGA students on university com­ mittees, one of the Adams-Featherston platform goals. "Students are expecting great things from SGA next year, and I'm looking forward to working to complete our platform," Adams said.

The fundraising «ign, Climb for the Cure, is deted to bring attention to HIV infeciimong young adults. 3imb for the Cure is a result of the igAIDS cases among teenagers and *ig adults according to a letter from American Foundation For Aids wch(AmFAR). TheCongressional M Committee on Children, Youth Families reported a 62 percent in•*in AIDS cases in the 13-to 24B-old age group in the past two tS. Unless we continue to take a stand <W this epidemic, not only will we lany of our brothers and sisters to *se, but our generation will be throughout our life cycle in '8 with the enormous loss both in "•nity and in resources," Climb for Cure Director and Founder gander S. Friedman told AmFAR. ^nine-member climbing team has ^ 0Ver $150,000 of which Time Inc. and The Equitable Foun"icontributed $25,000 each. Other tutors include Merrill Lynch, the New York City law firm of Debevoise and Plimpton, the firm of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, Inc. and American Passage. The students choose to climb Mt. McKinley, the largest peak in North America, as a symbol of the challenge of finding a cure for AIDS. The climb will begin in June and isexpected tolast 30 days. "We are making this climb not only to raise funds for AIDS research and education, but also to let people our age know that AIDS is a serious problem," Friedman told AmFAR. "We want our peers to realize that there are many creative ways to help combat the prob­ lem. Climbing Mt. McKinley is just one of those ways," he said. J. Walter Thompson USA, has cre­ ated a national ad campaign to be launched. The North Face has agreed to providing equipment sponsorship and guides from The National Outdoor Leadership School will lead the hike. APA Travel Center in Beverly Hills, California has donated lodging and transportation for thenine-student team. National Student AIDS Awareness Week, beginning April 12 will be a second part of the Climb campaign. AmFAR and Climb for the Cure hope universities will use the week of April See AIDS Pa8e2 I'! STUDENTS RAISE MONEY: Nine students from Princeton University will climb Mt. McKinley this summer to raise awareness of AIDS and to raise funds for AIDS research. The team hopes to raise $250,000. Students react to service P'an CX^PORTS ; students _A_ New college plan questioned by concerned university (CPS) Students reacted favorably to President Clinton's call for a national service program to pay college tuition, although some tempered their enthusi­ asm with concerns about how the plan track |sts UNCr *otte W Carson an,' e S jj 3Hmentarv $U would be carried out. Questions were raised about the low number of students who would be in­ volved the first year and the cost effec­ tiveness of the plan, which will be in­ troduced to Congress this spring. "We're not saying that the national service program is a bad idea; it s a fine idea. And Clinton's strong emphasis on serving the common good is a welcome change from the dog-eat-dog ethics of the Reagan-Bush era," read an editorial in "The Daily" of the University of Washington in Seattle. "But national service isn't, and couldn't possibly be, for everybody." Clinton, making good on a campaign promise, announced his plan in early March at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, N.J. He called for $7.4 bil­ lion to finance thenational servicecorps over thenextfouryears. Students would earn credit for college money by per­ forming public service. By 1997 there would be approxi­ mately 100,000 students involved in the program. An effort will be made this summer to train 1,000young people for community projects. It is expected to cost $15 million, and Clinton has said he will hold a Youth Service Sum­ mit at the end of the project to get feedback from the participants. Another proposal is to reform the student loan program by allowing col­ lege graduates to pay back their loans based on a percentage of their income. Loans would no longer originate from banks or thrifts, but would be managed by a central government agency. The editorial board at 'The Daily" supported the loan-payback program as a more realistic approach to pay tuition, which is now averaging about $14,000. "It's basically a recycling of one of Michael Dukakis' better proposals:giv­ ing loans to students which are paid back with payroll deductions, the size of which would be based on income," the editorial said. "Dukakis proposed that the deductions continue until re­ tirement; Clinton is thinking 25 years. Either way, the plan would do wonders for the millions of students graduating with large loan debts." Ryan Ravinsky, a junior at the Uni­ versity of Florida in Gainesville, told "The Independent Florida Alligator" he supports Clinton's community serviceplan."Ifpeoplecare enough about their education to apply for financial aid, then I don't understand why they can't work for it," Ravinksy told the paper. Another University of Florida stu­ dent who favors Clinton's plan was Susan Summers, a doctoral candidate in higher education administration."The debt burden is becoming terrific for higher education," she told the paper. "It's time for relief and this program bears a lot of thought." Not all students quoted in the press seemed impressed. Shirley Leung, edi­ tor of Princeton University's "The Daily Princetonian," expressed indifference in "The Chronicle of Higher Educa­ tion." "A lot of people are involved in community service here, but I'm not sure that a lot of students see it as a viable way to pay for college," she said. Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Appalachian police investigated a string of larcencies in Eggers resi­ dence hall Sunday. Money was taken from three rooms in Eggers at approxi­ mately the same time frame said ASU Police Captain Larry Foster. The in­ vestigation is pending, but police have a possible suspect. . A former Appalachian student was arrested and charged with second de­ gree trespassing Friday morning. Last month, police had issued a citation banning the subject from campus for one year. Police confronted the sub­ ject in Winkler residencehall. An April 22 court date has been set. The campus incident log reported vandalism to a vehicle in State Farm parking lot Friday night. A back win­ dow, valued at $200 to replace, was broken out of a vehicle. Nothing was stolen from the vehicle, according to Foster. The investigation is pending. A student was charged with disor­ derly conduct and inappropiate be­ havior after the student was observed urinating on a bike rack. Resident officials wrote up the student and contacted University Police. The stu­ dent had left the area when police arrived. Police issued alcohol violations to three students Thursday night at Leg­ ends. The students were given cita­ tions and referred to student court. An underage drinking violation was is­ sued by police in Winkler residence hall Saturday. Boone police advised University Police to be on the lookout for a mental patient who had wandered away from the mall area Saturday afternoon. The patient was found ap­ proximately 30 minutes later. In other news, police received a report of a stolen wallet believed to have beenstolen from theQuinn Cen­ ter. A magazine solicitor was reported in Winkler residence hall. �The Appalachian. Tuesday.

Gay issues addressed at two universities (CPS) Gay, lesbian and bisexual stu­ dents faced different actions by student governments at two universities, with one giving support to a homosexual wing in a dormitory and another refus­ ing to recognize a gay student group. The Student Assembly at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., voted 11-7 to create a 60-room unit in Clara Dickson Residence Hall. Meanwhile, the Stu­ dent Senate at Ohio Northern Univer­ sity in Ada voted 15-9 to deny student government recognition of the Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Alliance, a sup­ port and educational student organiza­ tion. The issue at Cornell University will be settled by President Frank H.T. Rhodes, who must approve or deny the resolution passed in early March. A decision isexpected in April, according to spokeswoman Linda Grace-Kobas. Rhodes originally received the reso­ lution after the Student Assembly ap­ proved it Dec. 22. However, he had concerns about what the entire student body thought about the issue, how much the makeover would cost and about the safety of the students who would live in the segregated unit. A student referendum was held, and of the 4,500 who voted, 768 said that they would be willing to live in the dorm. The S tudcnt Assembly then voted again to support the resolution March 11. While there has been anti-gay graf­ fiti on campus, no gay or lesbian stu­ dent has beenassaulted thisyear, GraceKobas said. Meanwhile, the Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Alliance at Ohio Northern University began holding seminars and meeting with various student groups after the Student Senate voted 15-9 to not recognize the group. While the group still exists on cam­ pus, recognition would have meant it could have applied to the senate for funds, that it would have appeared in a booklet listing campus organizations for incoming freshmen and would have been covered by the university's liabil­ ity insurance. There are approximately 18 students in the group, and many of them are heterosexual, said university spokes­ man Monte Siekerman. At Ohio North­ ern, an organization first must be recog­ nized by the senate before being offi­ cially designated a student organiza­ tion. Prior to the vote, students, faculty and administration at the United Meth­ 2fc WAYS •feheLpswehie €AfttVtCAU- 18 04 88 8 - 0 - 0 - 8 7 0 odist school debated the issue. While gay and lesbian students gave informa­ tion packets about homosexuality to the student senators, other students went door to door in the dorms to argue against the measure. "Recognition wasan attempt to make a public statement that gay, bisexual and lesbian students should be treated like other people," said Derrick Strobl, a former senate vice president and mem­ ber of the gay alliance. 'The group will continue to function. I would say, on the whole, that thiscampus is conserva­ tive. Information they have is slanted and limited. Even those who said it was a religious issue were practicing covert racism about what it means to be gay." However, opponents said that homo­ sexuality is a sin and shouldn't be con­ doned on campuS. Coffey celebrates 40th By MANYA A. BRACHEAR Staff Writer Coffey Hall, Appalachian State's honors residence hall, celebrates the big 4-0 this week. According to Coffey RSA President Heather Hambrick Coffey hasn't "done bad for being offi­ cially 'over the hill.' " Coffey Hall was constructed in 1953 as faculty apartments. In 1983 the build­ ing was renovated to house the honors program. The honors office moved to the subfloor and honors classes were taught in the downstairs conference room. In addition to guest rooms,100 spaces opened up for honors students. Chancellor's Scholars were given first priority. Other honors students were invited to fill the remaining spaces. In order to live in the building, freshman and sophomore residents are required to take one honors class per semester. Juniors and seniors must take one per year. Each year, potential residents fight­ ing for a space in Coffey can put their names on a waiting list available in the honors office. Although most waiting lists are usually discouraging, spaces in Coffey always open before the begin­ ning of fall semester as students final­ ize plans to move into apartments. Coffey is one of the few residence halls on campus with personal bath­ rooms, dressing rooms and kitchen ar­ eas. Rooms differ in size and number of occupants. Freshmen are usually as­ signed to comer rooms which house four people each. Based on a point system designed by a select committee of Coffey Hall resi­ dents, students with more honors classes, hours and semesters living in Coffey are able to obtain less crowded rooms through a bidding process. "The system is completely student operated, and reflects the students' atti­ AIDS Continued from page 1 12 to bring attention to AIDS through lectures, workshops and fund-raising activities.

Coffey's di­ versity also adds an extra benefit for residents. No matter where one is from or what one likes todo, one will always find someone else who complements his or her style in Coffey Hall. "Coffey may 'creak' in the night or be in for a slight face lift in appearance, but its interesting history along with its diverse residents make for an exciting place to be," Hambrick said. Coffey residents do enjoy the rich heritage their home has acquired over the years. Upperclassmen attempt to scare incoming freshmen with the tra­ ditional Coffey Hall ghost stories. Ru­ mors have circulated for years that the residence hall was built over part of an old cemetery. The figure of a woman has been seen outside a third floor window although she hasn't been seen for several years. Another story focuses on the electrical closet in the conference room where a graduate student supposedly hung him­ self and remains permanently cemented into the wall. Yet, residents' favorite story revolves around "Max", known for haunting Room 311. Max is supposedly an assis­ tant professor whokilled himself in that room. But Max gets around, too. Resi­ dent Dee Bergin said several years ago she and her roommates were minding their own business in Room 201 when the kitchen sink turned on full blast then off again. "Max must have been thirsty," Bergin said. Resident Dave Jones said his past rooms have also been haunted by Max. Windows have been left open, lights turned on, and fans left running. A1though the actual dateof construc­ tion is not yet known, Coffey residents, members of the Appalachian Honors Association and honors faculty will celebrate Wednesday, April 7 at6:30 in the Coffey Hall Conference Room.

As students slide their trays down the metal railing and choose their evening meal, it rarely comes to mind how the food gets there or who coordinates it. Ruby Harper is one of those who makes mealtime at Appalachian possible. She has been with Appalachian for 16 years and has the re­ sponsibility of keeping "the quality of food up to par. She works the front lines as well as super­ vises the staff and student employees. Harper's day begins at 6 a.m. when she un­ locks thecafeteria and makessure that everything is operating as it should. Some mornings, Harper said, are "helter skelter...sometimes there are a lot of different things coming at you." The process of deciding what food will be served is more complicated than one would ordinarily think. The menus are decided in ad­ vance and ordered. The food is kept in a central stock room and brought up the following day to be served. Harper enjoys her daily contact with people. "I enjoy making students feel comfortable," she said. "Students are our customers and it is im­ portant to make them feel welcome." When unexpected problems arise, Harper is forced to deal with them in the most effective manner possible. Shortage in staff due to illness is a problem as well as power failures, which force everything to shut down. Harper has observed that although the menu varies, students still like"the basics." The chicken pot pie and chicken filet sandwiches are popular items. The cafeteria is always open for suggestions, according to Harper. Suggestion boxes are avail­ able and students are asked to voice any complaints. See HARPER page 4 Appalachian photo by Michael Ange CAFETERIA SUPPLIES QUALITY FOOD: Appalachian State University's Food Services strives "to offer variety and quality," says Ruby Harper, ASU cafeteria worker. Students rarely realize the amount of dedication and planning which is necessary to provide an entire campus with a wholesome meal. A different perspective about midwifery By LEAH DICK Appalachian Staff Writer "The birthing stool was the original throne," said Lucinda Flodin at the beginning of her program, "Written in Blood," which took place March 24 at the Broyhill Inn. Lucinda Flodin is a midwife who gives performances that tell the older experiences of midwives and mothers. Besides giving her world premiere performance of "Written in Blood," she also gave facts to the audience about a woman's body. "The uterus exerts 2,000pounds of pressuredownward while the woman gives birth," she said in an amazed voice. Later the audience learned that the chemical solution, when a woman's water breaks is the same solution as the ocean. "Written in Blood" was an empowering eventfor every woman, and perhaps a few men, at the show. Flodin asked for questions and comments after her performance. One woman requested that Flodin put the show on videotape at some point so that it could be shown to those who could not make the show. Midwifery is illegal in North Carolina. "If a woman is caught practicing midwifery she can be fined $250 and put in jail for six months," Flodin said when answering an audience member's question. By performing shows on midwifery, Flodin takes the mysticism of midwifery away from politicians and puts the profession into a healthy light for all inter­ ested. Midwifery is not a cruel and dirty profession; it provides an alternative, healthy way to have a baby if a woman does not wish to give birth in a hospital. If you ever want to have a child, talk to other women about their experiences before you rule out a midwife.

Even today, it is very rare to find Zappa record­ ings at a record store because certain people have deemed his work pornographic. He has been accused of using many drugs, but in reality is drug free and has been most of his life. In fact, he has always ref used to have anyone in his band who has a drug habit. This is very surprising for someone who records music that seems to be drug related, during a time when drugs were very popular. In 1985, Frank Zappa went to the U.S. Senate against the PMRC in the fight against censor­ ship. His appearance at these hearings surprised many because no one expected him to be ca­ pable of handling himself in this sort of fashion. Zappa brought to light many of the problems that involve the PMRC and their insistance on censoring rock music. He is still fighting against censorship today. In the early days of his career, he was consid­ ered a "guitar god." Although he has not played guitar with any serious attempt in a very long time, he is still worshiped by many guitarists. In fact, many of the guitarists who are popular today played with Zappa when they were just getting started. The most noted guitarist who worked with Zappa is Steve Vai, who played with him for several years. Vai was virtuly unknown at this time, but soon after he went to such lucrative gigs as lead guitarist for David Lee Roth, formerly of Van Halen, and Whitesnake. He has also recorded two solo albums, Flex-able,which is very reminiscent of Zappa, and Passion and Warfare, which still has some Zappa influence, but not as much as his first album. Not only is Frank Zappa a tremendous influ­ ence on the rock world, he is also a noted composer of classical music. He has done work with Kent Nagano and the London Symphony Orchestra; he worked with Pierre Boulez, who conducted Zappa's "The Perfect Stranger"; he has performed with Nicolas Slonimsky; and most recently he worked with the Ensemble Modem for a festival in Frankfurt, Germany. His extensive work with these modem classical performers is proof enough that Frank Zappa is talented and well respected. In fact, the abovementioned performers sought him out because they wanted to work him. Nothing to scoff at for a rock and roll guitarist. Not only is his music, "both rock and seri­ ous", complex, but the equipment he works with is very intricate. He is one of only a couple of people in the world who does extensive work with the Synclavier, a high-tech computer syn­ thesizer-type sampler device. Zappa is very selective about who he works with in thestudio because his equipment is so advanced that it can­ not be run by just anyone. He hand picks his crew for its expertise. For those people who may not be familiar with Frank Zappa's music, I would like to rcc- Unique trio presents show in the U.

The best bet is to check out "Freak Out" and/or "Mothermania." As for his solo mate­ rial, I highly recommend"Hot Rats." It is by far one of his best instrumental albums. Violinist Jean Luc Ponty is featured on this album, as well as Captain Beefheart, who does vocalsfor "Willie the Pimp," the only vocal song on the album. If you are in the mood for super weird, then check out his rock opera "200 Motels." If you are into progressive, avant garde instrumental jazz, then listen to Waka/Jawaka, in particular the track "Big Swifty." Some others are "Over­ night Sensation," "Apostrophe" (with "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" and Harper Continued from page 3 - love youR ftgeyetE "Nanook Rubs It"), and "Baby Snakes." For live Zappa, check out any of the "You Can't Do That On Stage Any­ more" samplers (there are six in all), or, if you are willing to risk the money, then check out the "Beat the Boots" box sets that feature live bootlegs of Zappa. Two other intense selections are "Joe's Garage," a concept album, and "Jazz From Hell," which has Steve Vai on rhythm guitar and features a good deal of Zappa's work with the Synclavier. Now, Frank Zappa spends most of his time in the studio working with the Synclavier. Recently, the second in­ stallment of the Beat the Boots box set was released. He also has an album coming out titled Civilization Phase III. Also, on a sad note, Zappa recently brought to the attention of the world that he has cancer. © "We try to take any complaint as a serious complaint," Harper said, "no ^ matter how ridiculous it may seem. ^ Every complaint is answered and posted." 0 Harper finds it frustrating when she works hard to provide a meal for stu- © dents who don't appreciate it.

Alan Whicker took first place in the 400 meters and the 800 meters for the Mountaineers and Fereshetian sees his future at Appalachian as very bright. "Alan Whicker had developed him­ self as one of the toughest kids in the conference," said Fereshetian. "He has really been a huge leader for us down the stretch." Other Mountaineers who took first place finishes included Jason Gibson in the 110-meter hurdles, Garson Hedrick in the 400-meter hurdles, and Steve Simandle who finished first in the3000meter steeple. Appalachian State also won the 400-meter relay and the 1600-meter relay. The Mountaineers willcompete again this weekend at the Dogwood Relays in Knoxville, TN.

In what was probably toughest week of an already tough the Mountaineers went 1-6 non-conference foes Georgia and North Carolina A&T and •hem Conference power Georgia ninth, ASU staged a rally of sorts. Con­ secutive doubles by Shane Owenby and Trent Suggs ignited the Mountaineers and put a run on the board, but Suggs was then picked off third by Tech's AllAmerican catcher Jason Varitek. ASU then returned to semi-familiar territory Friday, playing two against North Carolina A&T in Granite Falls. The visiting Aggies won the first game 5-4 in extra innings. ASU had a chance to come back, with two on and no outs in the bottom of the eighth, but Last Tuesday, the Mountaineers trav­ elled to Atlanta to play Georgia Tech, who had been ranked number one tor the last few weeks before falling to Western Carolina. ASU played the highly-favored Yel­ low Jackets close through the first six innings, but a five-run barrage in the seventh paced Tech to the victory. Georgia Tech took an early 4-1 lead on a pair of two-run homers off ASU starter Scott Heavner. Down 7-1 going into the top of the left the runners stranded. The second game was a more pleas­ ing sight for Mountaineer fans, with ASU winning 8-0 before the "home" fans. Ray Baynard pitched a complete game shutout and Rich Livolsi added two hits and five RBI's to lead the offensive attack. The bus rides continued for the be­ leaguered Mountaineers, back again to Granite Falls for a three-game set with Southern Conference leader Georgia Southern. The Eagles took a 5-2 victory in the first game behind the powerful bat of outfielder Todd Greene. Greene hit two dingers off ASU pitching to continuehis chase for Pete Incaviglia's alltime NCAA home run mark of 100. Greene currently has 82, good for third on the list. In the Saturday nightcap, Scott Musgrave pitched well, allowing only two runs on five hits, but it was not enough as the Eagles won again, 2-0. GSU pitcher Clint Fair, who leads the Southern Conference in earned run average, allowed only four hits and struck out ten in holding the Mountain­ eers scoreless. Georgia Southern completed the sweep on Sunday, posting four runs in the first to cruise to a 5-2 win.

Auburn was third in the event with 36. In addition to Morrison, Appalachian State had two other first place finishers in Cynthia Miner and Precious Quire. Miner took the high jump with a mark of 5-6 while Quire won the triple jump at 38-2 3/4. "I was really proud of everybody," ASU Head Coach John Weaver said. "There were a couple of things that we wanted to accomplish going into the meet and we did. We wanted to com­ pete respectively and we did that by finishing second over Auburn who is a big Division I team. The girls know 'H - : . that they can compete with anyone now. It was really helpful for us to finish so well against two big schools like Au­ burn and Clemson." Sherri Miller captured two second place finishes for ASU as she heaved the shot put 37-1 and the discus 124-4 1/2. Beth Burleson, Alice Vinson and Carrie Hogg also finished second in the meet for the Lady Apps. Burleson finished in the high jump with a dis­ tance of 5-4 while Vinson was close behind Quire in the triple jump with a distance of 37-10 3/4. Hogg clocked 4:50.2 in the 1500 meters for a strong finish. Appalachian's 4 x 100 relay team finished second for Appalachian as well with a time of 47.08.

Alice Heidgerd picked up the only Appalachian singles win in theMarshall match while the doubles team of Amy Parille and Peggy Wein were responsible for the only other Moun­ taineer points in the third seed compe­ tition. The match was closer than the final score might indicate considering that Kim Fritts and Peggy Wein both lost singles matches in the third set. Parille also lost a close match, falling in the number two seed singles bracket 7-6, 7-5. "I think coach (Gene) Fields was proud of the way that we played," said ASU freshman Carrie Burton, " but I am sure he would rather have us win." On Sunday, the Lady Mountaineers picked up a win at the University of Charleston in West Virginia. Parille, Wein, Heidgerd, Fritts and Kendra Stallings all picked up singles wins for the Lady Apps while Burton and Katy Phalin picked up a win in the number three seed doubles match. "I kept watching Amy's (Parille) match which she won in three sets," said Burton. "She was playing on the court next to us and it was so intense that I think it carried over into our match and we were able to win."

Appalachian State's Pershing rifle drill team captured its third national title in four years at the national cham­ pionships recently held at North Caro­ lina State University. The defending championships fin­ ished first in 11 of 17 events, dominat­ ing from the start of competition. The Mountaineers were led by team commander Glenn Schmick, who fin­ ished first in the infantry drill regula­ tion. Schmick teamed with Tim Luper to take first place finishes in two addi­ tional doubles events. David Chaney also turned in an out­ standing performance for Appalachian State, finishing second in the infantry drill regulation. "The team's hard work really paid off. We improved in everything,"Cap tain Mark Jenkins, drill team coach, said. Jenkins noted that the biggest im­ provement was in color guard where the team finished second this year after failing to score last year. Nine universities qualified to partici­ pate in the meet and only the hosting Wolfpack remained close enough for second place.

Coach Jim Morris was disappointed with the loss, but stressed the impor­ tance of future games. "Everyone in the conference is pretty even, except for GSU and Western Carolina (tied for first), and since no one wants to play those two in the first round of the tour­ nament, everyone has to play hard the rest of the way." Also important to the future of the Mountaineers is thestatus of left fielder Rich Livolsi, who will undergo X-rays Monday for a possible fractured hand. "I salute Rich, because he played hurt because he knew it was an important series," said Morris. The next scheduled game for the Mountaineers is Wednesday against UNC-Greensboro. Babb finished at 4:59.9 in the 1500 meters and Disher clocked 10:41.9 in the 3000-meters. Hogg was also a third place finisher in the 800-mctcrs with a clocking of 2:22.

ROBERT ROBERTSUN Columnist I think it's time for ASU to adopt a new nickname. Several colleges have multiple, colorful designations so why shouldn't we? The Yellow Jackets of Georgia Tech answer to the Ramblin' Wreck while the Cavilcrs of Virginia are known as the Wahoos. Sure, "Mountaineers" is great and rich in tradition, but how about another mascot, something truly indicative of the campus and it's culture? How about the "Baby Tarheels", that has a nice ring to it. What do you mean that's silly, just look around you. ASU is just crying to join the crowd and give up all evidence of individuality. We are losing our identity and unique­ ness in the UNC family by trying to be too much like mom. Friends at other colleges usually despise register­ ing for classes, for only through Ma Bell can it be achieved. It's taxing on their nerves to have the exact pitch and tempo of a busy signal forever etched in their memory. When someone is finally home it's not a someone, it's a something programmed to sound like a someone. Answering the following queries brings on a symphony of numeric tones as registration data is transferred and confirmation awaits. Then [ you know that if you accept an internship in Texas for the summer, to > credit at Appalachian, you must still pay the student fees? In other s, you must pay a fee to allow you to participate in activities that occur s of miles away. Why should students have to pay for activities and ;s they cannot use? ent fees pay for a wide rangeof services. For an undergraduate full-time it (12 or more hours) student fees for one semester are S276.75. For a ntliving in Boone, this is a great deal. Student fees include an athletic fee sidize varsity athletics and admit students free into athletic events, a i services fee to cover the services and pharmaceutical items of Student Services, a student activity fee that covers services, activities and ns offered by A.P.P.S., the Quinn Center and other organizations, a H union fee to cover costs of operating the union, Legends, ACT, and or Programs, an indebtedness fee to fund the retirement of various bonds ngs and a book rental fee. i anient could not purchase membership to an independent health club, i services and concert tickets on an individual basis for anywhere^ near the e price the university can offer them through student fees. However, if a To the Editor: Mwere to get sick while while working at an internship in Georgia, he I not likely drive back to North Carolina and up the mountain just to see I am truly impressed with The SGA senator demands equal representation x lents taking zero to five hours must pay S92.25, six to eight hours costs ilsS184.50 a semester and students enrolled for nine to 11 hours mustalso I price of $276.75.

Imagine having to pay a fee to your home town while you eat school. That makes as much sense as asking students to send money "is when they are not here. tent interns and student teachers should not have to pay student fees •hey arc out of Boone. If this is going to be changed, students must take rie to write the business affairs office at Appalachian and their state Ksman. This policy will not be changed unless people protest and change. Appalachian's ability to use halftruths and incomplete facts. It normally takes years for professional papers to master that art! What I'm speaking about is its recent "News Analysis" on the SGA presidential/ vice-presidential candidate's plat­ forms and its coverage of the senate meeting on March 23, in which the proposal to extend the election dates was discussed. It appears that The Appalachian has not done its research. In its "News Analysis," its look at Richard Blackwelder and Deidre Martin's campaign platform consists of several errors. First, The Appalachian never mentions the vice presidential running mates on all three tickets, or "Beep: I'm sorry, the class you have tried to register for has been disconnected, or is no longer in service. If you feel you have reached this recording in error, please check the roster number or try your class again." In my three trips to the I.G. Greer basement here at App, I've never had to wait more than a minute or two in line. When my turn finally comes up and a free hand soars above the field of bowed heads, I suddenly find myself halfway done. On the rare occasion when a class comes up closed, my mentor calmly goes through my alternate classes and checks for other openings on my request. Soon I'm on my way out with a blueprint of my semester to come. Why pay thousands of dollars for a service that isn't needed. Well, Carolina has one... There are also plans for a neighborhood of frater­ nity housing,aFratCourt,if you will. Why? TocoiTal all the underage drinkers on campus into one area? To reward all the contributions various Greek organiza­ tions give back to campus in the way of the occasional weekend band or dance for independents? Yes, I know the fraternities themselves will fund the project with no monetary contribution from others, but, just call me a skeptic. Anyway, if athletes can't live together why should Greeks? The marching band members might desire a place to bond and conduct rituals, so, if they request it, can they build a house as well? Read their lips — they'll pay for it. Don't worry though, no matter the dissent, various fraternities will have their own homesteads in the near future. Why argue, Carolina's frats have them... Then there's the controversial and much debated Student Activity Center, which the top dogs of the Administration seem determined to shove down everyone's throats. The students don't want it, the faculty doesn't want it, Boone doesn't want it; yet Mr. Thomas and his cohorts seem obsessed with having it built. That's all we need — a Dean Dome. There their contributions to the tickets. For Blackwelder/Martin, Miss Martin has made important impacts on the ticket's goal. While Richard is a staunch supporter of Multiculturalism, it was Miss Martin's experience as vice president of the Black Student Association which led to the development of the Student Committee for Diversity Enhancement and a 30-page break­ down of multiculturalism at ASU. None of the other tickets, which claim concern for multicultural issues in their platforms, have any minority connections. Another error is the comment that the Blackwelder/Martin ticket has no plans for implementing their platform points. Apparently, the authors (not journalists; journalists print facts, not fiction) never spoke with the candidates regarding those statements because the Blackwelder/Martin ticket had research teams containing no less than five people who were really isn't any logical reason to have the SAC built. No offense but the ASU basketball games don't draw that much local interest in terms of attendance and graduation is a twice a year event, which doesn't need a house of its own. Due to the current limited, local population and the disappointing loss on January 26 (LBTD), I doubt any major concert or event would schedule a performance in such a dry county. We'd just be digging a hole for a small fortune to sit in and rot. Then again, Carolina has one... In the end, all these proposals are going to cost money. Who is going to be responsible for the money —just go look in the closest reflective surface. At the same time our wallets are shrinking, the population of ASU will be expanding. As more students enter, dollar signs will waltz in the eyes of whoever's king at that time. Textbook rental, already a rare and unique innovation, will become extinct. As residence halls fill with freshmen and the occasional upperclassmen, the excess masses of students will invade the monopoly of highly-priced apartment complexes located in the area. Boone itself will be consumed by the university. King Street will be a haven as the eventual eateries and bars sprout up. Our athletic class will move up to division one, and our academic classes will balloon. Suddenly, viola! You officially have the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in Boone. Appalachian will no longer be a subculture,distinc­ tive in itself compared to other branches of higher learning. In the fast paced, high profit world of collegiate education, the simple, down home plea­ sures which made Appalachian what it is will be replaced by twirling technology and dime-a-dozen, typical features all other colleges now have. I've never been onefor funerals, but the death of the ASU I know and love is fast approaching. Yoscf, I hardly knew ye. knowledgeable in each respective field. Hunter Schofield, former president of SAVE, was consulted on the matter of indoor-recycling, something none of the other tickets did. Mountaineer Escorts was looked into by a former escort, a senior in the Criminal Justice dept., and Roy Tugman, head of ASU Security, as well as others. By claiming that the tickets had a lack of knowledge, research and substantial plans, The Appalachian is in error. In the editorial pertaining to the same subject, the comment was made that Blackwelder was interested in an "expensive computerized registration system." What the editorial failed to mention was that the telephone registration that is currently on the docket to be installed will cost more, tens of thousands of dollars per year, than Blackwelder/Martin's suggested system. Their registration system can be accommodated almost by the number of terminals that we already have on campus. Regarding the article "Elections Postponed," March 25,1question why it is never mentioned that Senator Richard Blackwelder and those affiliated with his and Miss Martin's campaign were a) the only ticket to vote in favor of the exten­ sion, and b) the ticket whose mem­ bers encouraged our esteemed colleague Senator Brian Deaver to bring the vote up for reconsideration. Why were these important facts left out? Personally, I believe that The Appalachian, a name that instills the belief of equal and fair representation on this campus, should present the facts and give proper representation to all the candidates if they choose to present anything at all. To all who agree, please write me or the newspaper to voice your opinion. David Brown SGA Senator Box 15835 C rW up!

The logo was introduced in 1984 and registered with the st&te in May 1985 for sole use by Appalachian State University. We have updated the logo slightly this year (logo to the right), and will be using this logo forfestival activities from now on. It will also be registered with appropriate state and federal agencies as a trademark of Appalachian State University. Over the past several years, the original logo has been used from time to time by other areas for activities unrelated to An Appalachian Summer, appearing on panel vans, tee shirts, fliers and other promo­ tional material.

"The debate was originally scheduled prMarch 17. However, the cancellajoit of school due to the snowstorm cancelled the debate. The candi­ es coordinated efforts to reschedule [^debate to March 29. The questions ranged from asking lie candidates to describe the research iat went into their platforms to how hey would implementmulticulturalism nd improve minority affairs. The candidates were asked how well bey felt SGA senators represent stutaits. J.D. Adams, presidential candibte. said that he felt students were not well represented in SGA. Dan Gurley, current SGA president running for re-election said he was in favor of reducing senate size. Richard Blackwelder, presidential candidate, said that he would like to see off campus senators have more respon­ sibility. Many a Brachear, a panelist from WASU's "Crosstalk", questioned the candidates on providing the university with an efficient early registration sys­ tem as well as a personal approach to registration. Blackwelder responded against the phone registration system adding. Adams responded in favor of the phone registration system, adding that the program should be phased in and reviewed for efficiency. Gurley also responded in favor of the registration system. The panelists for the debate were Lorrie Gantt, from The Appalachian, Manya Brachaer, from "Crosstalk", Mike Harkins of Residence Life, and Amanda Holdan, from WASU.

Students from Students Actively Volunteering for the Environment met on campus with Student Development to write a survey and to randomly call 10 percent of the campus to ask their opinions about the issue. According to Hunter Schoefield, leader of SAVE, only eight percent of on-campus students now recycle, and with indoor recycling, a realistic figure would be 50% of the students recy­ The idea has been floating around since last spring. Schoefield commented on the origination of the idea, "It seemed to be obvious that we needed it (indoor recycling) on cam­ pus. Everyone needs an equal opportu­ nity to recycle." Since many of the students surveyed agreed to pay extra to obtain recycling indoors, the matter of money may not beaslargeof aproblemas some people. There would be costs to pay collectors, but the cost of maintenance would de­ crease. Schofield said he wanted the stu­ dents to know that if they want this system in their dorms, they need to request it from administration and got involved in the establishment of this program. "There are administrativeforces who are hesitant to see this happen, but we have to convince them this is a major concern of students on campus," he said. Petitions will be circulated around campus to educate students about the flaws of the present system and reasons why recycling indoors would produce a better outcomeof saving our resources. "The (current) system has been in place for a number of years and has proved ineffective," said Schoefield. Specific plans on processing the in­ door recyclables are in the making. There are suggestions for having a single bin for each room or a centralized sta­ tion on the bottom floorin the residence hall's trashrooms.

The goal of the trip is not only to prove to the students that they do have leadership abilities, but to encourage them further to develop and use those abilities on campus. As a result, the participants are re­ quired to return, full-time, to Appala­ chian for the 1993-1994 term. They must also "hold or be committed to seeking a position of leadership within a recognized University organization," according to a pamphlet.

Senior Plan­ ner Wayne Herron of the Boone Plan­ ning and Inspection Department said this policy will encourage the reliance on ASU programs that assist the com­ munity. Transportation 'The townshall encourage the develop­ ment and use of park and ride lots at the edge of town. Appalachian Archaeol­ ogy professor Harvard Ayersaddressed the importance of this issue by pointed out the "nucleated" aspect of Boone. In addition to being bicycle and pedes­ trian friendly, othermethods of alterna­ tive transportation should be investi­ gated, such as the AppalCART or other type of mass transit system said Ayers. Housing and Neighborhoods 'Factors in determining preferred lo­ cations for high density residential de­ velopment shall include: close proxim­ ity to the university... Appalachian Ge­ ology professor Dr. John E. Callahan said that before looking to the peopleon this issue, the planning committee should first look at the valley's capabil­ ity for handling an increase in popula­ tion. The development of affordable stu­ dent housing could also arise from this policy. Although the decision is made by the private owners of nearby property.Herronsaidstudenthousing would probably pass more favorably through the process than, for example, high in­ come retirement homes. Community Character •Wise development of tourism poten­ tial. Attracting tourists could be vital to the growth and development of Appa­ lachian, as well as attracting out-ofstate students. This in turn would mean more dollars for the university.

Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Dr. Ward Zimmerman responded to one citizen's concerns that ASU was one of the worst pollutants in the state.

The play uses audience participa­ tion to help develop the story. The production begins as an acting troupe of peasants prepares the stage for a play. Once the roles are cast, the adventure begins. The bumbling Baker and his daughter Pa­ tience are visited by the Royal Heraldannouncing the Queen's arrival. As the Queen and Baker choose baked goods for the Queen's party, her son, Percy, and Patience meet. Through the common experience of dealing with less than perfect parents, the two youths find friendship and understanding with one another. The Queen and the Baker return, bragging about theirrespective children. The Baker brags that his daughter can turn straw into gold. The greedy Queen quickly announces that if Pa­ tience can perform this impossible task, then she and Percy will be married. The Queen locks Patience into a room with a pile of straw. A magical dw arf appears and turns the straw into gold in exchange for Patience's firstborn child. A year later, when Patience and Percy have a child, the dwarf returns to collect his payment. Unwilling to give up her child, Patience asks for a second chance. The dwarf hesitantly agrees PLAY FEATURED: Rumpelstiltskin may have gotten more than he bargained for when he tried to trade gold for a newborn baby. Rumpelstiltskin, and challenges Patience to guess his name in based on the Grimms fairy tale, will be performed March 20 and 21 at ASU. The play, presented by the Appalachian Young People s Theater, begins See YOUNG page 6 at 2 p.m. in I.G. Greer Arena Theater. Senior editor at Simon and Schusterio speak ASU News Bureau Gary Luke, a senior editor at Simon and Schuster, will discuss editing and publishing April 1 at the Jones House. His talk, part of Appalachian State University's Visiting Writers Series, begins at 7:30 p.m. A reception follows. Call 262-3098 for more information. Luke, who has also worked for NAL/Dutton and Dcll/Delacorte publishing companies, ac­ quires nonfiction and fiction for hardcover. He has worked with music critic and historian Dave Marsh; novelists Gus Lee, Peter Turchi and David Guy; The Portable Curmudgeon com­ piler Jon Winokur;and humorist Bruce Feirstein. As pan of his discussion, Luke has made available a proposal for a non-fiction book about the Minnesota State Fair and an excerpt from a novel, The Middle of Nowhere, both of which he has recently acquired. He will discuss how and why editors buy what they buy and what they do with manuscripts once they are purchased. Cop­ ies of these materials are available for review at the Watauga County Public Library and ASU's English department in Sanford Hall. Luke's visit is made possible by the generos­ ity of Mrs. Thclma Raley, and funded in part by the Watauga County Arts Council, Grassroots and Initiatives Funds of the North Carolina Arts Council and Friends of Belk Library. Education majors gain experience from the classroom Future teachers observe and participate through four semesters of their major ASU News Bureau Piper Lee was nervous. She was just minutes away from teaching a dance and movement lesson to two dozen very active middle grade students. For 20 minutes she was in charge, explaining concepts, patterns and rhythm as the whirling energyof fifth-graders became focused on creating an original line dance. Lee, like all Appalachian State University education majors, will have lots of opportunity to interact with school students and calm newteacher jitters before entering the teaching profession. Education majors at Appalachian begin ob­ serving and participating in the public school setting in their sophomore year."We try to have students out in the field the second semester of their sophomore year," Dr. Alexander Erwin, director of field services, said. "In Introduction to Teaching, students get their initial entry to the classroom," he said. Students spend 15 to 30 hours observing class­ rooms as part of the course requirements. "This experience continues through their senior years," Erwin said. As juniors, students get in-depth field experience within their discipline. During the first semester of their senior year, elementary, middle school and special educa­ tion majors intern in a public school setting at least once a week for 10 weeks. During the last five weeks of class, they are in the publicschools full time. "This gives students another extended oppor­ tunity to be actively involved in the classroom prior to student teaching," Erwin said. "By the time they graduate, education majors have had four semesters of opportunity to observe, assist and participate in teaching." The result is students feel adequately pre­ pared to become teachers. The state department of public instruction agrees. "According to the state department of public instruction we have not had a teacher rejected during the initial certification period in the last five years," Erwin said. The observation and participation means stu­ dents are also performing better on the professional knowledge section of the National Teachers Exam. Test scores have increased 10 to 20 points over recent years. Erwin would like to add more opportunity for participation. "You cannever say this is enough. We will continue to look for ways to provide experiences so our graduates can be effective in the classroom," he said. ^ >1 Fool's Day doesn't have tomake others Polish.

Funk entered the championship _ . ^ wi[h a flawless record while FJME 101 had recorded one Because the playoffs are double iriation. School Time 101 had to rwo consecutive games, otherwise Funk would be declared undischampions. Ichool Time 101, behind the near fectfirst half shooting of junior Eric rtjock, built a 26-14 lead at the break on to win the first game, 38- 27. Other key contributors for the win­ ning squad included junior Eric Hunsucker with eight points, junior Lynn McDougald with seven and se­ nior Jeff Reid with six. Pure Funk was led by graduate student Lynnwood Robinson with 10 and sophomore Ja­ son Yaudes with-six. In the second game, the two squads seemed to be more evenly matched as control of the game switched hands on numerous occasions. Pure Funk came out on top at the half, 14-12. With:31 remaining to play, Pure Funk's junior Andy Arnold scored a three-point field goal to give his squad a 37-36 lead. At :30, Robinson committed a personal foul that sent McDougald to the line. The leading scorerfor School Time 101 with 11 points, McDougald fell short with both shots. At :23, McDougald committed a personal foul on Jason Yaudes who made the second of two shots to give Pure Funk a 38-36 advan­ tage. McDougald had his second per­ sonal foul at the :13 mark sending Robinson to the charity stripe only to see Pure Funk build their lead to 40-36. McDougald scampered down the court for a three-point basket on School Time 101's next possession with :03 remain­ ing to narrow the margin, 40-39. Hunsucker next fouled Arnold who made the first of two baskets to put Pure Funk up, 41-39 with :02 remaining to play. After a School Time 101 timeout, McDougald rushed back onto the floor, firing a three-pointer which bounced around the rim before falling to the ground, giving Pure Funk their second consecutive intramural basketball championship. Robinson lead Pure Funk in the sec­ ond game with 16 while Amoldchipped in 12. Sophomore Scott Yaudes added six in a winning effort. In addition to McDougald, junior Brian Shipman scored eight, senior Matt Hemphill had seven and juniors Murdock and Hunsucker had six apiece. The women's title was captured by Boozettes/UJB who knocked down Delta KMA, 24-21. Delta KMA, who lead at the half by an 11-10 margin, tied the contest with 7:53 remaining, 16-16, when Trish Boyles made a short jumpshot. On Delta KMA's next possession, Boyles fred up another shot to put her squad up, 18-16. Boozette/UJBplayerKristal Britlon scored for her squad on the next possession to tie the game at 18-18. Boyles was still hot on Delta KMA's next possession, nailing a three-point shot to give her squad a 21 -20 lead with :20 left to play. Delta KMA player Wendy Tonker, playing with four fouls for most of the second period, commit­ ted her fifth foul at the .07 mark on Shannon Warren. Tonker, upset with the call, was slapped with two technical fouls for unsportsmanlike conduct, set­ ting upsix shots for the Boozettes/UJB. After Warren missed both shots off of the foul, Vangie Mitchell approached the line to sink two of four, good enough to put the Boozettes/UJB up, 22-21. Britton capped off the win with a field goal with :02 on the clock to give the Boozettes/UJB the title, 24-21. Delta KMA was led by Boyles with 12 and Tonker withsix while Boozettes/ UJB were paced by Britlon with 11 and Warren with five.

ASU will host UNC- The Appalachian State men's tennis team has suffered a rain-drenched stretch of matches since competing at Georgia Southern on March 24. The Mountaineers have only com­ peted in two out of their last five sched­ uled matches, including an indoor com­ petition at Radford and a home match on Tuesday against the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Despite losing to the Forty-Niners, Appalachian State got strong perfor­ mances from several players. Thenum­ ber twoseed doubles teamof BenGerace and Blake Pendleton picked up a vic­ tory as did the number three seed doubles team of HeathMarston andZach Sharpe. ASU picked up singles' wins from Gerace and junior Bill Plautz. "Plautz and Gerace have been play­ ing extremely well in singles and doubles," said Appalachian State head coach Mike Kemodle. They have re­ ally been playing some strong tennis." On March 28 the Mountaineersagain got out of the rain, this time at the indoor facility on the campus of Radford University. The Mountaineers fell 4-3 to the High­ landers but again got strong individual performances. Doubles play kept the Mountaineers close as Plautz and Zapata, Gerace and Pendleton, and Marston and Sharpe all picked up victories. "I am happy with our doubles play," said Kemodle." I think they have done extremely well considering we have only practiced indoors." Plautz picked up another win at the number three seed singles competition. Marston and Greg Dulin both went three sets before dropping their singles matches. Marston was competing as the Mountaineers' number four seed while Dulin represented seed number five. "We really should have won the Radford and UNC-Charlotte match," said Kemodle. "We are not match tough or practice tough because we have not been able to practice that much (be­ cause of the weather)." Before the trip to Radford, the Mountaineers were scheduled to play two road matches in Lexington, Va. against the Virginia Military Institute and in Blacksburg, Va. against Vir­ ginia Tech. The matches that were scheduled for March 26 and 27 were rained out. The March 24match againstGeorgia Southern was the only conference com­ petition for the Mountaineers thus far this season but was unable to be completed as the rain set in again. The number three seed doubles match that was interrupted will be completed at the Southern Conference Tourna­ ment to on April 6 at the President's Courts.

Minority students have wrongly been granted privileges at many uni­ versities. For example, at Pennsylva­ nia StateUniversity, all black students, regardless of their financial aid status, receive checks for $580yearly for main­ taining a mediocre grade of a C to C+ for anything above that, the booty jumps up to $1,160. How could you blame anybody for being outraged by such a ludicrous policy? How can an institu­ tion claim that it doesn't discriminate on basis of race and then give every­ body whodoesn't have a particular skin color a raw deal? Many advocates escape their conscience by reasoning that the majority simply cannot be dis­ criminated against, but that logic would exclude women from any type of dis­ crimination whatsoever! The number ofAsian students at the University of California at Berkeley is so proportionately high that the univer­ sity has put ceilings on the number of Asian students admitted. This is just one of hundreds of cases where quotas are not there for minorities, but for people whojust are not good enough to make it in the free-market system. is the final day for the Student Government Association elections, but students will not be allowed to vote. Students that must be out of town election must forfeit their right to vote in this election, by-laws do not provide for absentee voting. Even ifa student studies the tes* platforms and decides who to vote for ahead of the election, if they here to vote that day, they can not vote. erous complaints can be heard from senators about the lack of involvein SGA elections. If a student is willing to take the extra time and effort about absentee votingand then vote, SGA should come up with away it likely, absentee voting will only be taken advantage of by one or two a year. This is not the point. If any student wants to vote for their ent, they should be allowed to do so. national government has numerous ways a citizen can vote before the It is extremely puzzling why univer­ if unable to vote on election day. A registered voter can apply for an sities, businesses, and the government ballot up to the day before the election. The voter can then mail it in need quotas when Michael Jordan, e the election or have someone carry it in on election day. If a voter is Charles Barkley, Bruce Smith, and ted and cannot vote for himself, he is allowed tobring someone to vote for c SGA should take notes from the national government and form a way to students to vote through some form of absentee ballot. Although it is too n this election to create an absentee ballot system, when the by-laws are wed at the end of the year, the senators should seriously consider creating visional system. ten the election ends this year, SGA needs to take another look at an absentee ballot system. This may be a lot of effort for only a fulof students, but these students aremembers of the Appalachian student and deserve a vote. A student government should be every student's mment — not every student's but the two or three that were out of town Kirby Puckettdidn'tneed them tomake it to the top. Quotas are justified by the false logic that the population should be represented proportionately. In that case, we must enforce a quota mandat­ ing that 75 percent of the players in the NBA and NFL should be white! Now, the university curriculums are under attack by the multiculturalists demanding quotas and classes. They not only want to change the general education requirements by forcing stu­ dents to take the multicultural curricu­ lum, but also prevent students from majoring in science, engineering, busi­ ness, and other highly promising fields. In fact, the main goal of the multiculturalists is not to make the stu­ dents diverse, but to make them intoler­ ant. After all, it isn't in the best interest of all college professors to have racial tensions eased quickly, since unity among the people wouldundermine the existence of certain social science departments. Much of "research" con­ ducted here is recycled by putting new labels on old theories. It is about time we put our foot down and send a strong message out not only to minorities, but to all the people: Society is not the problem, your skin color is not the problem, and the bil­ lion-dollar corporations are not theprob­ lem—You are your problem. And only when you decide to improve your con­ ditions, not by protesting, burning down cities, or by quotas, but by working hard, getting a real education (not a college degree in basketweaving, and then complaining about the tough job market), and making it happen in a capitalist system, will you start reaping the rewards. Of course there are going to be many obstacles in your path— nothing worth having ever comes easy—but you must overcome them, not use them as an excuse for a failure. In our educational system today, all the way from elementary school up to college, there is too much of an empha­ sis on self-esteem, making high stan­ dards the sacrificial lamb. As a minority, I'm proud of my cul­ ture and heritage, but I don't go around calling peopleracists if they don't know about it. We have been bombarded by civil rights activists preaching to us how important it is to understand ethnic roots if we are to get along with people of different cultures, but to know the person, it isn't absolutely necessary to know their culture. Rush Limbaugh has said, "Multiculturalism is the tool of revenge for those who have failed to make it in the American establishment." That statement hits the nail right on the head. People are always going to have differ­ ences, but we can't attribute all of the them to racism, since the best way get along is to leave each other alone. Necessity By BRIAN WINKLER Assistant Commentary Editor Multiculturalism is something that has always been and should always remain an integral part ofa well-rounded education. A free market of informa­ tion is vital to intelligent decision-mak­ ing, and intelligent decision-making is vital to the continued viability of our nation as a cohesive society that exists to benefit themajority. Multiculturalism taught at the college level supports that goal. Most students entering the univer­ sity environment for the first time have ery rigidly defined and predictable attitudes towards other cultures and other socioeconomic classes in their own culture. These new students fre­ quently have the attitudes and preju­ dices that their parents and friends have given them over the previous 18 or so years. The university should not, and does not exist to change those views per se, but it should and does exist to call every view one has had up to this point into question. Many arguments put forth by role models such as parents and friends have been accepted as mattersof-fact, when in actuality those argu­ ments aremerely the opinions of others thinly disguised. If every prejudice that a person has had throughout life is a result of someone else's thinking, then now can one besure that that thinking is indeed one's own? One may only say that one's thinking is one's own after the fundamental assumptions that one bases those opinions on are examined. Some people who are against multiculturalism take issue with the fact the reputations of men like Ben­ jamin Franklin and Christopher Coumbus are being being tarnished and their importance is being diminished. It is true that men such as these have played a very significant role in the history of the United States of America. Unfortunately, throughout elementary, junior high and high school, the deeds of these men and others like them has been polished with an air of greatness and infallibility that they simply donot deserve. Multiculturalism stresses edu­ cation with a wholer truth, inmore of its many forms, than traditional pre-col­ lege education has stressed. For ex­ ample, it is true that Christopher Co­ lumbus discovered America. It is more true, however, to say that Christopher Columbus discovered America for Spain, and that he was not the first person to discover this land. We also should not be taught that we are better off becauseChristopher Columbus dis­ covered America for Spain. If that is indeed true, we should beable torealize that for ourselves, once all of the rel­ evant facts are presented. Multiculturalism exists to open the minds of bright students by providing them with knowledge of how other cultures have solved the universal prob­ lems humans face under the circum­ stances of each of their differing cul­ tural systems. Some problems Ameri­ cans have solved best, but other prob­ lems have been solved better in other cultures. Education is the key to mak­ ing more prudent decisions in the fu­ ture. Another aspect of multiculturalism is the affirmative access policies of some universities. These programs seek to redress past inequalities in access to the educational system by reducing admissions standards for minority stu­ dents. While these programs may ap­ pear on their face tobe both discrimina­ tory and racist, they do accomplish something very honorable that may be difficult to achieve otherwise. Humans tend to adopt the values of the people they have grown up around. If none of those people value higher education, then the people who grow up in that environment may not see any incentive or benefits to a post-secondary educa­ tion. Even if they do, they may not receive the same support from friends and others to be an academic achiever. Affirmative action programs seek to exist solely as temporary measures to recruit positive role models for lessprivileged members of society. This they do well. Minorities in American culture de­ serve the chance to have their cases presented, and since America is known as the melting pot, they should have a chance tointegrate parts of their culture into ours, as well as integrating parts of our culture into theirs. Most Ameri­ cans believe that America is the best country on this earth in which to live, but they also believe that if things are not going as well in our country, we should have the right to change them. It is cultural pluralism that makes this country the greatest.

By attending the Student Senate and listening to the candidates, Smith proves himself to be a concerned, informed student. Indeed, his observation was correct. Last Tuesday, Student Government looked a little silly. We voted not to change the election dates, then changed our minds. It was reported that I was a Senator who voted against changing the dates. That report was true. In that vote, I want to emphasize one tfiing. There were personal and political motives on both sides of that vote. The Blizzard of '93 messed up everyone's schedule. Upon returning to school, as a. candidate, I knew the election was only a week away, and I was worried that we would not be ready. However, I was prepared to accept the twist of fate and push to get my message out We worked hard from the minute we got back to insure that we would be able to speak to as many people as possible. We had to schedule many meetings with very little time to speak at each. We called all our supporters and urgently requested them to drop whatever they were doing and start getting ready for Wednesday and Thursday. We worked around the clock to make sure that the students could make an informed decision in the time allowed. When told that a proposal would be offered to Student Senate to move the dates back a week, I admit that, as a candidate, I was against this. This proposal would stretch the probable election period to Easter break, creating a total of 18 campaign days. Not only would it require a massive reshuffling of schedules on our part, but to the many people we had already informed about the election, it would cause confusion and uncertainty. I realized, however, that this decision was not one that needed to be made as a candidate, but as a Senator. Every single person who voted Tuesday night had the responsi­ bility to speak to their constituents and find out what they thought about the proposal. It should not have been a personal decision. It should have been one that was made after careful consideration of all the ramifications and a discussion with the students of Appalachian who counted. I truly wonder if a majority of those Senators who voted, on either side, could say they look this sort of consideration when making their vote. I can. You see, I started to realize what a tough decision it was. There were definitely some great reasons for postponing elections, all the ones the Appalachian so aptly mentioned in its editorial. However, I thought there were some pretty good reasons to keep the dates as well. I discussed both alternatives and their ramifica­ tions with more than a few people in my residence hall, and while some were in favor of changing the dates, most of the people I talked to were for keeping them the same. It was pretty well summed up when one of my constituents said, "Dave, anyone who cares enough about their school to vote in this election will make it their duty to be informed on the issues. After 18 days, we're just going to get sick of you all." In answer to other accusations, I would like to point out a few relevant facts. I did not ask anyone to vote for or against this proposal. In fact, anybody who knows can look at the list of people the Appalachian so ably reported and see that very few were my supporters. Indeed, well over half my supporters voted for changing the dates. Also, it doesn't take a "quick-thinking expert on parliamentary procedure" to under­ stand that a vote can be reconsidered again. I knew full well that when I left that meeting with one (not many) other Senator that the vote was likely to be changed. If the Dan Gurley/Dave Cox campaign had wanted to keep the dates, we could have. As sitting President, Dan could have vetoed the change. The fact is that he did not. I can understand the outrage that will occur towards Student Govern­ ment from this mishandling of elections. I would just like to make the plea to all students who care about their University not to be discouraged. Now we have this extra time, make sure you are informed on all the issues and the candidates' records. Examine closely what they have done in the past and examine closely their future goals. And please, vote!

ASU's baseball season started 16, the team has been forced to tule its first twelve home games looding on the field. >ding has been a problem on the 1 field every year for the last 20 said Jim Morris, Appalachian Jachian State University's head baseball coach. "But this year has been the worst by far." The upper-stadium field and State Farm area are two of the prime loca­ tions discussed for a new baseball field by university officials. Both areas would require landscape renovation to either avoid the current problem of flooding or create enough space for the field. For seven weeks straight the baseball team has been unable to practice on the Adams - Featherston field. The season, ending with the Southern Conference Tournament be­ ginning May 2,1992, lasts only10 and one-half weeks and usually includes around 50 games. "We've only been able to practice on the field once this season," said Steve Bronack, a player on ASU's baseball team. "It's extremely hard for the team to play a 50 to 51 game schedule with no field practice behind them." The team is currently practicing in Broome-Kirk Gym until the weather permits them to return to their field. "We're looking at all options that are currently available to us and the costs that would be involved in moving the field to other areas," said Clyde Robbins, associate vice-chancellor of physical operations. "If possible, we would like to keep the baseball field on campus, but as of now, no decisions have been made." Susan Stamper, Director of Health Promotions, updated the student gov­ ernment senate on a proposed campuswide smoking ban. The proposal was formed by Stamper'scommi ttee from surveys conducted on campus and from talking to other North Carolina university sys­ tems. The survey found a majority of those questioned wanted a university campus smoking policy. The proposed smoking policy out­ lines which areas on campus would be desginated no smoking. The policy would go into effect Aug. 23, 1993. Administrative buildings, academic buildings and food services would be no smoking areas according to the pro­ posed policy. Broyhill Inn and Conference Center would have no smoking in public areas including restrooms. Private rooms would be designated smoking or no NEWS ANALYSIS Blackwelder - Martin smoking. University vehicles including service vehicles and vehiclesused forclass and organizational transportation would be designated no smoking areas under the proposal. In an informal poll, the senate voted 18 to29 toexclude the Pub and Legends from the policy and to include a smok­ ing lounge in the library. Thirty-two senators voted in favor of excluding the library smoking lounge, the Pub and Legends from the policy. Vice Chancellor of Student Devel­ opment Dr. Greg Blimling told senate a non-smoking residence hall is a possi­ bility for the future. Preference would be given to non-smokers said Blimling. When the policy was called for de­ bate Senator Marc Millis spoke in favor of the ban. No one debated against the campus-wide smoking ban proposal. Stamper's committee developed the plan from national guidelines and vetilation systems. Stamper presented the committee's Findings to faculty senate Monday night.

Some points addressed in the proposal are summarized below as back­ ground information to the meeting tonight. The summary is a small portion of the proposed comprehensive plan containing the issues that potentially affect Appala­ chian students the most. For more in­ formation attend the town meeting to­ night. Under Economic Development the plan calls for improving area businesses by supporting the tourism trade, "at­ tracting diverse industries,"and "en­ couraging Appalachian to work with local organizations to improve thequal­ ity of the workforce and offerresources to local businesses,"reported theMoun­ tain Times. Along with enhancing the Boone business community, the plan enforces "recruiting and locating light indus­ tries" in the area under industrial devel­ opment, cited the Mountain Times The need for transportationimprove­ ments is reflected in the plan as a major area of community concern. To im­ prove parking and transportation prob­ lems the plan calls for increasing alter­ nate transportation. AppalCART use and planned bikeways and a pedestri­ ans system were emphasized. Thirteen policy statements are out­ lined in environemental quality to en­ sure protection of the area environ­ ment. Increased recycling, supporting waste reduction, and development regluations on ridgetops, slopes and hillsides are discussed. The plan also emphasizes maintain­ ing community appearance, commu­ nity character and the atmosphere of the downtown area. Under improving planning, coordination and public involvement a closer coordination between town government and Appalachian is sug­ gested. Editor's Note:"Boone Comprehensive Plan a Blueprint for the Future" in the March 25,1993 issue of The Mountain Times contributed to this article. Compiled By SUZI LANDIS News Editor "Appalachian police will soon use radar equipment to monitor vehicles on campus," said ASU police Cap­ tain Larry Foster. Four officers are certified to use the equipment pur­ chased this summer and are practic­ ing with the equipment on Rivers Street. The campus police logdocumented officers operating stationary radar from 12:30 a.m. to 3:15 a.m. on Riv­ ers Street. Theofficers were familiar­ izing themselves with the radar equip ment, according to Foster. Foster said the officers haven't of­ ficially started ticketing, but officers can ticket drivers while familiarizing themselves with the equipment. Speeders will be issued state cita­ tions and will be required to appear in court. "It's very dangerous to speed on River Street because of pedestrians," said Foster. "The speed limit is 25 miles per hour on Rivers Street." ^ A painting entitled "The Farm Yard" was reported stolen from the Catherine Smith Gallery in Farthing Auditorium last Thursday morning. The painting, valued at $900, is be­ lieved to have been taken during last Wednesday's performance of "Ro­ mance, Romance," said Foster. The painting was hung in the up­ stairs lobby and owned by Appala­ chian. The investigation is still pend­ ing. Police reported vandalism to a resident's door in Cannon residence hall. "The door was 'totally de­ stroyed' and cost $200 to replace," said Foster. Police are investigating the incident. An Appalachian student was ar­ rested for drunk and disruptive con­ duct at Legend's Saturday night. The student was taken before the magristrate and issued a $300 se­ cured bond. A Sony radio cassette player and earphone set belonging to an East hall resident was taken from the lobby of East residence hall Monday. The equipment is valued at $100.

Reichel is Appalachian's head librarian. Not only does she oversee the activities in Belk library, she is in charge of the music library and the Appalachian Collection as well. "I work withothers to provide services for the campus," Reichel said. One of Reichel's main responsibilities, be­ sides coordinating the library staff, is to oversee Appalachian's library budget. She spends much of her day in meetings discussing issues in policies, collection andservice matters, and how the library might use its resources effectively. Reichel also makes it a point to meet individu­ ally with members of the library staff. This helps the staff to share ideas and allows Reichel to get to know the staff members. "There are a lot of people I wouldn't otherwise come across," she said. Reichel came to Appalachian last August from the University of Arizona. She says that she loves the Blue Ridge Mountains yet appre­ ciates the fact that she can still visit Arizona's pleasant climate. Reichel went to undergraduate school at Grinnell College in Iowa. She then spent some time in Europe where she attended the Univer­ sity of Wales. Reichel finished her education at Georgia State University where she got her Ph.D. in Higher Education. Reichel takes pride in her "ability to interact with people" and can sense that communication Lately, in one of my psychology classes, .'vebeen discussing the many stages of develnent that one goes through.

The exhibition features more than 40 works, including works by American artists Thomas Hart Benton, John Steuart Curry and Leonard Baskin. The gallery, located in Farthing Auditorium, is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 262-3017 for more information. Many of the works in the exhibition are gifts to the university from the collection of Dr. Margaret Poison, a member of the art faculty. The artwork belonged to her parents, who acquired it through the American Artist Society. A major portion of the works is from the art department's study collection. Much of this collection was developed through purchases from the Appalachian National Drawing Competition, a national drawing competition sponsored by the university annually from 1976 through 1983, and supported by the North Carolina Arts Council. The exhibition was organized by students in the art department's exhibition practicum class. Under the direction of gallery director Terry Suhre, the students selected and prepared the art for exhibition, developed publicity and installed the exhibition.

"I enjoy setting the tone in the library for how we communicate with each other and deal with issues," she said. Reichel enjoys the interaction she is able to have with students. She is im­ pressed with the serious attitude that students generally have toward their studies. When not involved with her work, Reichel spends her spare time with her five-year-old son. "1 find myself com­ ing home from different meetings and going straight to Ninja Turtle concerts," she said. Reichel would like to see the library become more involved with educational programs for students. She also hopes that eventually On-Line information will be available in every room for students to have access to. "I'd like to see the collection support most undergraduate research and facili­ tate faculty resources," she said. To be a good librarian, Reichel believes that one must have "intellec­ tual curiosity" as well as the ability to work with a variety of people. "It's important for me and my colleagues in 'libraryland' to be involved in professional and scholarly activities," she said. Continued from page 3 "The Crying Game" has one scene that no other movie has ever done, full frontal male nudity. Oh well, you fe­ males have beensuffering through years of totally nude women; so now it's our turn to say: "Hey! Did they HAVE to show that!!" Neil Jordan's script and direction are more interesting than almost anything Hollywood has put out his year. The performances are superb throughout, especially form Rea, Davidson and Whjtaker. The only problem with this movie is that it is too long, but not boring. For a foreign-made, mystery-suspense drama, this is one "bloody" good flick. Whether or not it will win any Oscars remains to be seen. "The Crying Game"(Rated "R": pro­ fanity, violence and nudity) rates *** out of four.

Because sports teams receive little by way versity funding, the women's ski was sponsored by First Tracks, "Elk Exxon, Ski Country Sports, h-Swiss Ski College, Boone , ASU Club Sports and a number of friends and relatives on theirjourney to the national meet. The squad also participates in several fundraisers in­ cluding the ski swap, held annually." The rifle team captured the Mid At­ lantic Conference title at theU.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD on March Tate Humphries, Jonathan Bagley, Greg Smoak and Chris Willis repre­ sented Appalachian in the meet. The event included the shooting of both .22 caliber rifles and air rifles. Currently, the squad is ranked 16th in the nation and they have been invited to compete in the nationals on July 23-30 in Camp Perry, Ohio. "Because we do not get much from the school, this was a great accomplishment," Willis said. "All of the teams we were up against are very experienced and have high quality rifles, unlike ASU." The judo club will have three more matches this semester including Ft. Bragg on May 1, Charlotte on May 7 and Camp LeJeune on May 15. The men's volleyball club will travel to Auburn April 3 to compete in a tournament with teams from Auburn, Clemson, UNC-Wilmington, the Uni­ versity of Tennessee, Vanderbilt, the University of Virginia, the University of Florida and Florida State. After this event, president Jonathan Merril noted that squad members will participate in doubles events beginning with a tournament in Columbia. SC on April 24. The rugby club will compete in the state tournament on April 2 at Guilford College in Greensboro. The squad will face competition from teams including Guilford, UNC-Wilmington, UNCChapel Hill,North Carolina State, Duke, East Carolina, Western Carolina and Wake Forest. After finishing third in the tournament last year, club president Kerry Putnam believes his squad may go all the way, "We have a pretty good chance of winning the states if things go our way." The squad will have an alumni game on April 17 at State Farm Field.

SU outdoor track squads open season at Raleigh Relays alton leads men with a third place finish in the 100 meters KRISTOPHER FLOYD Writer Tk Appalachian State men's outtack team competed in the RaRelays in Raleigh, North Carolina -Past weekend. The weather was terrible but westill tane good performances," said ntaineer Head Coach Al -hetiaa Jas°nDalton placed third in the 100a time of 10.69 for the Apps, °rmance of which Fereshetian y H ety proud. 'ason really performed well for us, w'th ^Fereshetian. ^nder Watts also faired well in the ^meters with a time ot IU.bd ana of 10.85 and 'itn Brian Miesch completed the500m with a 15.13 time. Alan Whicker turned in strong performances in two events. First of all, Whicker ran the anchor leg of the 4x1500m relay with a time of 3.55. He then came back and ran in the tacti­ cal race and finished with a time of 3.58. Other Mountaineers that turned in strong performances were Ryan Theil, who finished fifth in the high-jump, and Mike Worley who, in his first time in the competition, threw the javelin 163'6". The throw was good enough to place him fifth on Appalachian's alltime list for the event. Garson Hedrick, Paul Stahlschmidt, and Jay McRiggs also had notable per­ formances for the Mountaineers. "We will be a force to be reckoned with in the conference sprints," said Fereshetian, who added, "We will be in good shape if we can just get more practice outside." Fereshetian ispleased in the way that his team has demonstrated the ability to score a lot of points and feels very confident in his team's credentials in the high-jump. Due to the cancellation of theevent at the Raleigh Relays, the Mountaineers sent two athletes to William and Mary to compete in the hammer throws. Eric Roberts finished first in the discus com­ petition with a throw of 143 feet. In the hammmer throws, Roberts finished fourth and Rich Grant finished third. The Apps will host UNC-Charlotte and Carson-Newman this Saturday. Morrison wins both 100 meters and long jump By PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor Appalachian State University senior All-American Melissa Morrison turned in a great performance as the Lady Mountaineer track team competed in the Raleigh Relays this past weekend. Morrison took first place in both the 100-meters, with a time of 13.79, and long jump competition, with a distance of 19'1". Morrison also lead the 4 x 100 relay team to a sixth place finish with a time of 47.89. She was joined by Katrina Lee, Tonie Lazenby, and Alice Vinson in the competition. Weaver felt like his team couldhave finished higher had the weather not hampered the hand-offs. "That was a good time," said ASU head coach John Weaver, "considering that we had terrible hand-offs. Our time could have been much better." "It wascool and wet," added Weaver. "I was pleased with the performance of our team, especially considering the conditions." Other notable performances by the Lady Mountaineers came in the 5000 and 1500-meters. Nicole Disher fin­ ished the 5000-meters in a time of 18:10.7 while Carrie Hogg ran through the 1500-meters in 4:49.4. Precious Quire placed sixth in the triple jump with a distance of 38*2.25". Katrina Lee and Sheree Robbins also placed for the Lady Mountaineers. Next week the Lady Apps will travel to Clemson, SouthCarolina where they will compete in a tri-meet with Clemson and Auburn Unversities. "I like the tri-meet situation because we can put all of our people in their regular events," said Weaver. "I know this meet will be tough,but at least all of our athletes will get to run in races that they have been training for." "I think we should do well in the hurdles and jumps," added Weaver. The Mountaineers are looking for an unprecedented seventh Southern Con­ ference Outdoor Track title in as many years and will host the Mountaineer Invitational on April 17 which will in­ clude a wealth of conference competi­ tion in addition to several nationally acclaimed squads. The league championships will also be held in Boone on April 30— May 1. untaineer baseball team crushes Milligan, splits with Furman SU>s s[uggers travei to nationally ranked Georgia Tech before returning home to host North Carolina A&T and Georgia Southern ^ARIN GANTT Writer Tfc fortunes of the Appalachian State team are finally starting to turn ^|ler a dismal 0-10 start marred by |Jck and yes, rain, the Mountainave won five of their last eight ^ s to pump their record to 5-13.

However, the clouds broke and the Mountaineers split a Sunday doubleheader with Southern Conference foe Furman. The first game began as a classic pitcher'sduel between ASU righty Gary Davis and Furman starter Charles Braswell, each posting goose eggs through four. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases loaded and two out, 3B Ryan Cox' throw went wide of first base and allowed two runs to score. A shaken Davis then surrendered a two-run blast to Furman 2B Jeff Klimek, giving Furman a 4-0 lead. Two more two-run shots allowed the Paladins to cruise to a 8-0 victory. Braswell was superb for Furman, al­ lowing only four ASU hits and a walk, striking out four. The second game was more to the liking of the Mountaineers, as ASU won 9-2 on the arm of Steve Bronack and the bat of Randy DeBruhl. Bronack came on in the third with ASU down 2-1 and essayed five innings of shutout baseball to quiet the Paladins earlier offensive fire­ works. DeBruhl went three-for-four with three RBI in the nightcap to lead ASU. The Mountaineers climbed to a 3-5 Southern Conference mark with the split. Morris has been impressed with the team's recent surge. "We're finally starting to hit the ball the way we can and ourdefense is also improving to the point we'd like it to be." Morris alsocitedhis team's improved confidence. "After all those tough,early road games, we were a little shaky, and losing nine home games to weather that could have been wins didn't help either, but we're starting to come around." The Mountaineers have a two-game set this week at number-one ranked Georgia Tech before returning home to face NorthCarolina A&T and Southern Conference leader Georgia Southern this weekend.

The candidates, however, have done a good job of to find areas that they can work with. Blackwelder wants to support ics, but does not have many definite plans.

My parents didn't have a big party in that decade. They worked hard and improved themselves, not through large government spending and handouts like a lot of folks. Clinton blames the past twelve years for our debt thanks to big republican spending. Look al history and the constitution, Mr. President The Democrats have controlled Congress since 1956, and the Constitution says that all bills for both generating and spending income must originate in the House of Representa­ tives. Finally, I am becoming concerned by the amount of people complaining that the government doesn't give them enough. We need health care, jobs, training, ect. Whatever happened to the rugged individualism that made this country great? The government didn't create the lightbulb, the car or the industrial revolution. People did. Nine years ago, my dad lost his job, and my family was less than well off. Did he sit around and complain that capitalism was unfair and that the government should take care of him. No, he went our, got a job and improved himself. Remember this about a great big wonderful govern­ ment that can give you all you ever wanted; the same government is also big enough to take it all away.

As I also stated, it is not my duty, nor is it ethical for me to request a certain vote on any issue that might arise in senate. That job is to be left to the constituents that elected each representative. The accusation was made that everyone wearing an Adams/ Featherston sticker voted against the voting dates being changed. Again, this is simply not true. In fact, David Cox, a senator and candidate for vicepresident voted against the bill and justified his actions during the meeting as being the request of his constituents.

With this case and all others we will do just that. J.D. Adams Box 12213 SGA's interests and motives questioned To the Editor: On March 23,1993 I attended the SGA meeting in room 1015 of the COB. While I was there I saw some of the most ill-conceived, sloppy actions and deliberate misrepresenta­ tion I have ever witnessed and some of the finest backroom political maneuvering that I have ever heard in my life. Both of these developments were over the upcoming presidential election. There had been an effort earlier in the meeting to push back the election date one week. The effort started around 6:30 and was defeated by 7:00. At 7:011 had made up my mind that I was going to go to the election committee the next day and file a protest to try and see if I could have the SGA charter revoked because it did not represent me and because SGA did not consider it worthwhile to give me enough time to make a responsible choice for president During the question and answer period for the presidential and vice- presidential candidates, after the above vole, I came to the following conclusions about the candidates. Dave Cox and Dan Gurley are out to disenfranchise me because their political campaign workers needed a rest from their hard work; therefore, thfe date should not be changed. l.D. Adams lacks leadership skills because his supporters in the Senate could do whatever they wanted, like vote to give the students less than 48 hours to find out about the candi­ dates, and he admits that he had no influence over them. Richard Blackwelder, while being somewhat sloppy about political timing, does care at least a little about the students, since he assisted in the turnaround vote on the election's date. As I was getting ready to leave, the Senate brought the Enabling Act, the rule setting the date, back up and changed the date. Of course, Dan and J.D. and their supporters had left and were no longer as much of an obstacle. They should learn from the former USSR and the Koreans. You don't leave a meeting before it's over. I do not believe that elections are run for the benefit of campaign workers, nor do I believe that I can support a candidate who does not have influence over his own support­ ers; therefore, I will be voting for Richard. I will not be trying to get SGA's charter revoked at this time, but I will be watching. Russell R. D.

Mackay Appalachian Cartoon by Jaiihrce Hart �8 The Appalachian Tuesday. March 30. 1993 Platforms Continued from page 7 The last topic the candidates chose to address is that of student concerns. Since the topic is broad, the platform issues range from technology changes to ways to get student input to changes in multiculturalism. Almost every year the administration asks the student government to vote to support tuition increases. This is a concern to all students and is one that decides for some whether they can continue their education the next year. Gurley and Adams both oppose all tuition increases, while Blackwelder does not take a stand on this. Blackwelder's platform emphasizes supporting multiculturalism through work­ shops and cultural events — a good idea in itself — but he fails to say who will accomplish this or how it will be accomplished. Adam's platform proposes to design a system for all students to vote on pertinent issues during class registration. This is a good idea, providing that is when the important issues surface to be voted on. Adams' plan to give students doing internships and student teaching the option to waive their student fees would be helpful to many students. To accomplish this would require lobbing efforts at the state level. Creating community publicity boards is also a good idea. If Adams follows his promise of attending organization and club meetings to receive student input and concerning university events and policies and organizing open forums for different student leaders he will provide an important tie between the students and their government. Adams plans to publish a SGA newsletter each semester, but this can only be done if the money is available. Adams' plan to place more courtesy phones in the library would be helpful to students studying late at night so they could call for escorts. Establishing a news stand isalso a good idea. Adams alsoplans to install an electronic information board to publicize upcoming events, but this would again take funds that the university may not have. Adams' proposal for supporting free confidential and voluntary AIDS testing through Health Services is one of the best ideasof all the platforms. Having the tests free and convenient would encourage more students to be tested and may help stop the spread of the disease. Gurley wants to expand the pilot program for laundry facilities, but this is already in the university's plans. His proposal for expanding the use of Express Accounts has also already been adopted by the university and is being planned now. Gurley's proposals for implementing a voice-technology/telecommunications system for student use is also in the plans now. Gurley's plan to organize a voter registration drive targeted at incoming freshmen is a good idea and would help freshmen get registered before the cut-off date of the first vote. This platform also wants to require student involvement in Food Service decisions, howeverstudents are usually consulted before most major changes in Food Services. Gurley also has some plans for addressing multiculturalism by creating a standing university committee and expanding programming and course offerings. However, these issues are already being addressed by the university through various departments and more classes are planned to be offered as soon as the state can provide the funding. His plan to expand harassment education and awareness programs sounds good, but is not backed with who will do it and how it will be accomplished. Gurley also wants to promote theNC Star program, a good program in itself that supports discussions about race relations, citizenship and respect for diversity through volunteer college students talking to public middle and high school classrooms, but he does not say how he will further its promotion. Again, the candidates should be commended for trying to tackle a variety of issues. As a voter, you will have tosit down and decide what seems feasible and then vote accordingly. Beware of words like support and advocate. An SGA president and vice president can support and advocate all they want and never really do anything. When looking at the platforms make sure what they are promising to do can be accomplished and that they have a plan toaccomplish it. Remember, you are hiring these people to work for you. Make sure they have a plan to handle your concerns. In the March 25 edition of The Appalachian, the Commentary page printed an error in the opening line of Rodney K. Duke's letter titled, "Abortion is about K-I-L-L-I-N-G." The correct sentence should have read as follows: "I am writing in response to Robert Robertson's column, 'It is the couple's right to decide,' March 2, which advocated that parents should decide whether or not the child they have conceived should be aborted."

SGA originally defeated a proposal to extend the election dates from March 24 and 25 to March 31 and April 1. A second vote extended the election and set new voting dates from March 24 and 25 to March 31 and April 1. Marc Millis, a member of the SGA elections committee introduced a pro­ posal to postpone the election dates. Originally, campaigning was to begin on March 15. Due to the snowstorm, most students did not return to campus until March.22. This left only two days of campaigning before voting was to begin yesterday. Millis argued that this was not adequate time for students to Appalachian photo by Randy keinink Blizzard of4 93 extends break By SUZI LANDIS s Editor The Blizzard of '93 gave AppalachianState students anextended Spring Break last week. From March 15-19, Mother Nature forced ASU to have the longest cancellation in the university's history. As some students soaked up the Florida sun or relaxed at home, Appala­ chian administrators and staff mem­ bers were preparing for the snow storm ahead. Chancellor John Thomas, Provost Harvey Durham, Vice Chancellor for Student Development Dr. Greg Blimling, and various other university officials met the Friday morning before the blizzard to discuss procedures in case predictions were accurate. According to Blimling, Saturday af­ ternoon Durham recommended closing the university to Chancellor Thomas. The Chancellor makes the final deci­ sion of cancellations after receiving recommendations from Durham and the Vice Chancellors along with safety and emergency agencies. "Our primary concern was the dan­ ger of students coming back," said Blimling. Speed Hallman, director of the ASU News Bureau, notified all major North Carolina media outlets that Appala­ chian would be closed. Since 90 pcrSce SNOW page 2 make an informed decision. Since the proposal would make changes on a previously passed act, it needed a two-third majority vote to pass. The proposal was defeated 29-19. Among those who voted against ex­ tending the elections were David Cox, Vice presidential candidate with Dan Gurley and Georgeann Baker and Brian Stanley, campaign managers for J.D. Adams. "I think the senators who voted against this should be ashamed," said Tina Szelist, director of public affairs. "You know good and well you voted for selfish reasons. I have never before been ashamed to beassociated with this organization, but I am tonight." Later in the meeting, Hunter Schofield, an off campus senator, ac­ cused Adams of influencing senator's votes, saying that most of the senators who voted against the extension were affiliated with his campaign. Adams denied influencing any sena­ tors, and pointed out that not all those against the proposal were supporting his campaign. Wardell Williams, president of the criminal justiceclub, addressed the three candidates, saying he felt cheated by senate's decision not to extend the elec­ tion. "I would have loved for the candi­ dates to have come to speak to my organization," said Williams. "My or­ ganization deserved that." Cox defended his vote against the proposal, saying he did talk to his con­ stituents about the issue and that it was difficult to keep switching the voting dates. "It's far easier on my campaign (to keep the original dates)," said Cox. "Maybe that's a cop out, but that's the way I feel." During thecandidates' address,many senators affiliated with the AdamsFcatherston and Gurley-Cox campaigns left the meeting.

This year the university expanded the annual Women's Week activities to include the entire month of March. Appalachian's Women's History Month will most definitely be an annual event, said Kathy Moore of the Women's Stud­ ies department. Moore said the transition from a week to a month-long event was hectic, espe­ cially because of the snow. Events and programs scheduled for last week will be rescheduled, said Moore. "Images of Women in the Films of Ousmane Scmbcne" presented by Ap­ palachian graduateGinger Walsh Long will be held tomorrow from noon to 1:30 p.m. in Room 224 LG. Greer. Moore encourages anyone interested in public relations, documentary filmmak­ ing and/or journalism to attend the lec­ ture. Dates for the Women Athletes Ap­ preciation Night and the reception for the women's studies writing contest winners will be rescheduled and an­ nounced at a later date. Events for theremainder of the month include a concert in the Pub featuring Liz Brown, a presentation from Mary Lynn Bryan, curator and editor of the Jane Addams papers, and a program on the prevention of sexual assault. Liz Brown will perform tomorrow night at 8 p.m. Admission is $5 at the door. Bryan will discuss "Why Jane Addams?: Editing Women's Papers" at See WOMEN page 2 Secondhand smoke report supports smoke-free campus advocates (CPS) A grim report on secondhand *niokc by the Environmental Protect,0n Agency has armed non-smoking "••dents, faculty and administrators with new information to fight for smokecampuses, a growing trend at U.S. colleges and universities. The EPA report, titled "The Respiral°ry Health Effects of Passive Smok'^Lung Cancer and Other Diseases," confirmed what the medical profess,on has long suspected—that breathsecondhand smokecan be as deadly flighting up. "It's very alarming," said Timothy Hensley, spokesman for the Office on Smoking and Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in At­ lanta. "The report provides ammuni­ tion for students and for administrators to strive for smoke-free regulations in educational settings to protect the nonsmoker from hazardous exposure to secondhand smoke, which can lead to lung cancer." Among the EPA's findings: Secondhand smoke is responsible for 3,000 lung cancer deaths annually among adults in the United States, and is associated with an increase in ail­ ments of the lower respiratory tract, such as bronchitis and pneumonia. From 15,000 to 30,000 cases of res­ piratory ailments in infants and young children up to 18 months can be attrib­ uted to secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke causes an in­ creased severity of symptoms in chil­ dren with asthma. The report estimates that 200,000 to 1 million children annu­ ally get sicker because of exposure to secondhand smoke. "Only about 25 percent of Ameri­ cans are smokers, so it is the majority of Americans who arc victims of passive smoke," Hensley noted. Since the EPA report, first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton has declared the White House smoke-free for the first time in history, and corporations such as McDonalds and Chuck E. Cheese are experimenting with smokefree restaurants. Smoking was banned March 1 in nearly all California state buildings under an order signed by Gov. Pete Wilson, who urged the judicial and legislative branches and the University of California system, which aren't cov­ ered by the order, to do the same thing. "Colleges should be in the lead, be­ cause smoking is lowest in areas where education is highest," said John Banzhaf, executive director of the Washington-based Action on Smoking and Health and a professor of law at George Washington University in Washington. "People form attitudes at the college level," he said. "Ten or 15 years ago, they picked up the habit of smoking in college; now they are picking up the habit of not smoking." Banzhaf counsels campus anti-smok­ ing activists to go all the way to the president of the college or university with their demands. "Tell him, 'You wouldn't put us in a building with asbestos,"' he said. "Tell him we no w know that passive smoke is a class A carcinogen." Administrators say the EPA report will most likely expedite even stricter policies than had existed before. UNC-CH offers rape-free zone seminars on campus.

Throughout the week as well as dur­ ing the 24-hour period of the Zone, students were encouraged to offer si­ lent testimony to the occurrence of sexual violence in their lives by tying red ribbons around a ribbon pole if they or anyone they know is a survivor of rape, assault,harassment orotherforms of sexual violence. These ribbons will be utilized during the empowerment ceremony. Last week, organizers placed card­ board silhouettesaround the UNC cam­ pus to symbolize rape survivors, along with information and literature about rape and other sexual violence. Flyers reading "Police Line Do Not Cross. This is not a rape-free zone." appeared on campus to publicize the event and warn students about the prevalence of rape and other violence on campus. Snow quiets ASU Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Appalachian police spent most of last week aiding emergency person­ nel, preparing the university for re­ opening and telling callers how long the campus was closed for classes. The Blizzard of '93 was the cause for the few reports the campus police did receive. A report of someone yelling for help in the Doughton parking lot on Friday led police to a person who had fallen on the ice and possibly suf­ fered a broken bone. The person was taken to Watauga County Emergency Room by ambulance. On Thursday, March 18 the Can­ non Resident Director reported that the building had possibly lost heat at 1:18 a.m. Appalachian police checked the building and confirmed that Cannon residence hall had no heat or hot water. An accident involving a vehicle and a snow plow was reported that same day. The pool in Broome Kirke Gym was close to overflowing, according to a report at the beginning of the snow week. Police contacted main­ tenance about the situation. A window in Bowie residence fell victim to snowballs last Wednesday night. The RD in Bowie observed the vandalism and reported the vehicle and tag number to university police. The investigation is pending. ASU police received a report of violent and threatening mail deliv­ ered toan off-campus student through the student's ASU box. �T h e A p p a l a c h i a n . T h u r s d a y . M a r c h 2.5. 7 9 9 ?

SGA Continued from page 1 senate, both Adams and Gurley also left the meeting, taking many of their campaign staff and supporters with them. While committee reports were given, several senators and cabinet members were consulting each other and "Robert' s Rules of Order," the guide to parliamentary procedure that senate follows, to find a way to reverse the vote. What they found was that the pro­ posal could be reintroduced if the sen­ ate still had quorum, (a majority of senators present) and if the proposal was reintroduced by a senator whovoted on the winning side. Frank Hal1 senator Brian Deaver, who had prt-viously voted against the exten­ sion, reintroduced the proposal after it was determined that they did still have quorum. With the majority of senators who voted against the extension having left early, the proposal passed 31-4, with one abstention. Many senators cheered the second vote, saying it was a win for the students. "We put people before politics and turned this whole thing around," said Schofield. "The real hero here is Brian Deaver." The elections will now be held on March 31 and April 1, with run off elections to be held on April 7, if neces­ sary.

Snow Continued from 1 cent of ASU students are North Caro­ lina residents, the announcements were focused in the state. Hallman notified the Associate Press to reach out-of-state students. "The snow story happened at the worse time as far as getting the word out [of cancellations].Students wereall over everywhere," said Hallman. "There was no way to get to every­ body. [We contacted] the outlets that could reach a majority of students," added Hallman. The snow possibly happened at the best time for the university, the town, and emergency and safety persons. Al­ though an estimated 160students braved the storm in residence halls on campus, most students were out of Boone, out of the cold, and were not sharing an al­ ready small food supply. Although classes werecancelled, the university remained opened through­ out the week. Staff members stayed on campus theFriday before the storm just in case. As it turned out, the crews that stayed worked 24 hour shifts removing snow while waiting for relief workers who were snowed in. "We were prepared,"said Dr. Clyde Robbins, vice chancellor of physical operations. "We took the forecast seri­ ously. We had all the crews on campus stay Friday and Saturday. We didn't let them go home." Monday and Tuesday workers cleared fire lanes to all buildings and then concentrated on clearing parking lots and sidewalks the rest of the week. "The university was ready to open on Thursday," said Blimling,"but thecommunity was not [ready for students]." After telling callers Tuesday that Appalachian classes would resume on Thursday, the decision was changed to cancel the entire week. Blimling said the change of decision caused some students to come back to campus, but not many. Appalachian decided tocancel classes for the rest of the week to give the Boone officials more time toclear park­ ing lots, to give state police and emer­ gency people extra time to clear roads and assist area residents, and to insure the safety of the students traveling to Boone, said Blimling. More than two feet acculumation of snow cost the university about $12,000 in contracting equipment and labor. Since the university is self-insured, a loss of $15,000 was added when a green­ house collapsed because of the snow. The greenhouse was the only structural damage to the university, said Robbins. Appalachian may receive Federal Disaster Relief Funds for the damages, said Robbins, since Watauga County was declared a disasterarea. Thepaperwork requesting federal funds will be sent in the next two weeks, but a time line for fulfillment of the request is not known, according to Robbins. NAOT > \ hv YALEET 221 E.

The operas will be directed by School of Music faculty member Joseph A may a. Accom­ panist is Linda Jackson. "Three Sisters Who Are Not Sisters" revolves around a murder mystery game. Composer Ned Rorem says "Games are for every age," so Amaya haschosen to make thecharacters young children, ages three to five.

Cast members are Dr. Julia Pedigo, Leanne Webb, Jennifer D. Tiller, Pharis Randall Cooper and Craig Phillips. Gian Carlo Menotti's "The Medium" tells the story of a fraudulent medium, Baba, played by voice faculty member Priscilla Peebles. Baba has been cheating her customers with staged seances by using her daughter, Barbara, and an adopted mute son, Toby, to fool her clients. She continues her charade until something even she can't explain happens during one of her seances. The incident, though minor, shakes her confi­ dence and drives her toover the edge of insanity.

Drawing from sources as diverse as rap and Sesame Street, Marblehead has amassed a faithful Boone following. Peace of Mind is a newer local band. It was formed by Tom Eure,singer and acoustic guitar­ ist, and Joseph Rayle, bassist, both of whom performed in last year's Amnesty concert with the now defunct band Greenhouse. The other partners are Johnny Hollingsworth on drums and Chris White on lead guitar. The band has been playing in Boone nightclubs and the ben­ efit concert scene since Fall 1992. Eure, who also frequently performs solo at beansTalk, writes most of the songs and identifies the band's style as "progressive folk-rock." Their songs are all originals, and the lyrics focus on a message of peace, said Eure. This concert is part of a tradition that beganin 1990, when members of ASU's Amnesty chap­ ter, then in its second year on campus, hosted its first spring concert at the Pub. That event has been repeated yearly since then as the club's one major publicity- and fund-raising event of the year. Amnesty is now in its fifth year at ASU and thrives under the leadership of Carolyn Rose, president. "Amnesty for me has become my little baby," said Rose. Amnesty International is a worldwide peace­ ful movement that works for human rights everywhere. AI's platform is threefold. First, it works for the release of prisoners of conscience, defined asanyone imprisonedfor hisor her race, creed, age, sex or beliefs, or for freely express­ ing opinions, as long as he or she has neither used .nor advocated , violence. AI champions many political prisoners who are jailed for their political affiliation or for participating in peace­ ful protests. Second, AI works for quick and fair trials for all prisoners. The final part of the platform, and themostcontroversial in theUnited States, is an opposition to all torture and execu­ tions. The main method of communication and pro­ test for Amnesty is letter writing. AttheirTuesday night meetings, members of Appalachian's AI chapter write letters to heads of state, undersecretaries, governors and prison wardens on behalf of specific prisoners, whom the club leams about from leaflets sent by AI's main See AMNESTY page 5 African filmmaker speaks on the role of women ASU News Bureau A presentation on the images of women in the films of African filmmaker Ousmane Sembene is scheduled for March 26.Ginger Walsh Long, an Appalachian alumna and instructional tele­ communications coordinator for NCSU ©X> Urn =3 0> <33 <73 ©- < el °"S ©- G i_r ^ u g G ^ 5= a> S o© O jy fclH • G <u> 92-^ -S3 -G 22 C- G 2 <L> G ..

Thursday. March 25. 799? Oscar winners predicted and will be confirmed Monday nigh By STEVEN MACKAY Appalachian Staff Writer It is warm out, flowers are starting to bloom, and Easter is coming. Well, okay, maybe not here, but some place it is spring. This means one thing for me; it's Oscar time! Before I begin, I would like to talk about a movie that has been wronged, "Malcolm X." It was only nominated for lead actor and costumes. How or why this excellent Film was all but ignored is beyond my imagination. I skipped all of the minor categories, "Lorenzo's Oil," "Unforgiven," and but here are some of my predictions for "Passion Fish." A whirlwind of plot the oscars; turns, surprises, and originality will give The nominees for adapted screen­ "The Crying Game" an Oscar to take play are: "Enchanted April," "A River back to England.

I would guess Richardson would win because she is in other mov­ ies that have been nominated. The nominees for best actor are: Denzel Washington ("Malcolm X"), Robert Downey Jr. ("Chaplin"), Clint Eastwood ("Unforgiven"), A1 Pacino ("Scent of A Woman"), and Stephen Rea ("The Crying Game"). Washing­ ton deserves to be recognized for his graceful, powerful performance. He leaves the rest of the nominees in the dust, however they were all great. The nominees for best actress are as follows: Catherine Deneuve ("Indochine"), Mary McDonnell ( Pas­ sion Fish"), Michelle Pfeiffer ("Love Field"), Susan Sarandon ("Lorenzo's Oil"), and Emma Thompson ("Howard's End"). The nominees for best director are: Robert Altman ("The Player"), Martin Brest ("Scent of A Woman"), Clint Eastwood ("Unforgiven"), Neil Jordan ("The Crying Game"), and James Ivory ("Howard's End").

Matt Russell went the distance for the road-weary Mountaineers, earning the first win­ ning decision of the season. The moment in the sun was all too brief, however, as thenext day ASU fell to a powerful South Carolina Game­ cock club, 11-1. "We were simply exhausted from theroad and were happy to be going home after that game," commented ASU Coach Jim Morris. But then, "The Blizzard" hit. What was supposed to have been a well-deserved, nine-game homcstand turned intosix cancellations and a week­ end series with ETSU being moved to Johnson City; all due to the fickle whims of mother nature. However, the Mountaineers stormed into Tennessee with a vengeance.

The Mountaineers rounded out the break in South Carolina with games against USC-Spartanburg and Wofford. The Apps fell 7-0 to USCSpartanburg before defeating Wofford, 6-1. The win over Wofford was the first ever for the Apps. Kernodle noted the performances of Greg Dulin, Ben Geraccand David Ray over the break.

Despite opening with a 2-5 mark and an 0-1 mark in the league, Kernodle is See TENNIS page 8 Appalachian State senior hurdler Melissa Morrison travelled to the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis, IN for the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Cham­ pionships on March 12-13. Morrison, competing in the 55-meter hurdles, finished third in the event with a clocking of 7.68. Morrison's finish earned her Ail-American honors. The University of Florida's Monifa Taylor took first place in the event with a time of 7.53 followed by the Univer­ sity of Illinois' Tonja Buford who fin­ ished at 7.6. According to ASU Head Coach John Weaver, Morrison is the third Lady Mountaineer to finish as high as third in the nationals. No one has ever placed second or first in the NCAA meet. In 1987, Meg Warren placed third in the javelin and in 1990, Whitney Ball finished third in the 5000-meter run. Weaver noted that Morrison did have a distinction from the other Lady Apps who have competed in the nationals. "Melissa is the first one to come away from the NCAA meet with a victory in any event. She won her semifinal heat," Weaver said. Morrison qualified for the event at the beginningof the indoor season when she clocked her personal best 7.66 in the Virginia Tech/Comfort Inn Invita­ tional. Morrison also competed in the USA Indoor Track and Field Champi­ onships in the 60-meter hurdles earlier this season prior to being named Southern Conference performer-of-theyear. "Any time that a member of our program performs as Melissa has, it is great," Weaver said. Morrison will open the outdoor sea­ son this weekend as she and the rest of the Lady Mountaineers travel to com­ pete in the Clemson Relays in Clemson, SC. "Melissa is really motivated for the outdoor season. She feels that she has room to improve and is looking to qualify for the NCAA meet outdoors as well," Weaver said. Weaver continued: "It will be about the same people competing with her in the outdoor season so she will have a good chance." Morrison, a senior, is a graduate of Kannapolis' AL Brown High School where she was a three-timestate cham­ pion and two-time MVP for the Won­ ders. Women's tennis wins four matches By SHANNON McGINNIS Staff Writer Appalachian State's women's tennis squad recorded four wins and dropped three matches on the road over Spring Break. ASU opened at Wofford College and fell short, 5-4. The Lady Apps improved in the sec­ ond match as they defeated Bluffton College, 9-0. Savannah State fell to the hands of the Lady Mountaineers on the follow­ ing day, 7-2 before the squad dropped to Armstrong Slate, 7-2 later in the afternoon. "I was really proud of the way we played against Armstrong State, de­ spite the loss," ASU Head Coach Gene Fields said. "They were ranked in the top five of Division II last year." ASU took down Ursinus College next, 9-0 and knocked off the Univer­ sity of Evansville later in the day, 7-2. Old Dominiondefeated Appalachian on the final day of play, 9-0. "Overall, I am pleased with the way we have played. For this early in the season, we arc doing well," Fields said. Fields noted that there was no one individual who played extremely well in the matches over the break as the team pulled together as one. "One of our greatest assets is our depth. I think it will really help us as the season goes on. Everyone pulled their own weight from a team aspect," Fields said. Members of this season's squad in­ clude seniors Kimberly Frills, Brittany Schwartz andJennifer Krueger; juniors Amy Parille and Julie Sullivan; sopho­ mores Alice Heidgerd and Kendra Stailings and freshmen Katy Phalin and Peggy Wein. "I am sure that they (the ASU squad) are going to make me proud as far as the conference goes. This is an excellent squad and they are very talented."

East Tennessee State continued its recent domination of Appalachian State in the second round of the Southern Conference Tournament. The Bucca­ neers ended the Mountaineers' season with a 97-84 victory. Guards Jason Niblclt and Eric Palmer proved to be too quick for Mounatineer defenders. Niblett finished with 21 points and eight assists and Palmer poured in 27 points and also dished out eight assists to lead the Buccaneer charge. All five ETSU starters scored in double figures. The game was similar to many of the recent Mountaineer-Buccaneer battles. Both teams shot only 39 percent in the first half due to tenacious defense by the opponents. Appalachian trailed at the intermission 34-31. The Buccaneers used a 21-7 run mid­ way through the second half to open up a 17-point advantage. Niblett and Palmer were then called on to dissect the Mountaineer defense out of a spread out offense that capitalized with many By PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor Donnell Rawls has probably never been so sick in his life. The trouble is, he was not sick at all. Rawls, who was diagnosed at the Southern Conference Wrestling Tour­ nament as having the chicken pox, was not allowed to participate and theMoun­ taineers lost the championship to UTC by 3.75 points. What makes the loss so frustrating is that an examination after the tourna­ ment determined that Rawls was not carrying chicken pox. "It cost us the tournament," said ASU head coach Paul Mance. "Donnell would have picked up 14 or 15 points and instead we end up losing by 3.75." The rest of the Mountaineers may have been affected by the added pres­ sure of the absence of their best wres­ tler. Scott Beauchamp defeated Joel Louden of UTC 5-3 in the semi-finals of the 126-pound weight class before losing the championship match to Alan Smith of The Citadel 5-8. Victor Balmeceda captured first place with an overtime win in the 134-pound weight division over UTC's Frank Mathews. Kyle Kuykendall took second place in the 142-pound class. Bill Baker fin­ ished third at 150, and Corey Creech took first place in the 158-pound divi­ sion. Seth Meyerson finished third at 167-pounds. The last three matches saw only one first place finish for ASU as Melvin Crosby took the heavyweight title and John Reynoldsand Shorn an Rozier took second in the 190 and 177 divisions. ASU did send four wrestlers to the nationals including Rawls, Balmeceda, Crosby and Creech. The Apps finished fortieth as a team while all four wres­ tlers finished in the top 16 in the nation. See WRESTLERS page 9 easy baskets. The Buccaneer victory was aided by the superb defensive play of Trazel Silvers. Silvers, who victimized the Mountaineers with two key steals in ETSU's come-from-behind victory in the last game of the regular season, set a new tournament record with eight thefts. Billy Ross closed out his career by leading the Mountaineer scoring with 24 points. He finished his career with 1,656 points, good for fourth on the school's all-time list.

Thursday. March 25. 1993 Intramural update By LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor Both intramural basketball and bowling are in the midst of the playoff series. Two days of play remain before the basketball championships, which will be held on April 30. The men's game will begin at7:45p.m. with the women's game kicking off at 8:30 p.m. Both contests will be held in Varsity Gym Three days of play remain in the bowling championships before the fi­ nals, which will be held on April 31 in the Plemmons Student Union Bowling Alley. The weekend team handball tourna­ ment will be held this weekend in Var­ sity Gym. Softball, volleyball and indoor soc­ cer all begin play on April 29. Softball will be held at State Farm Field while both volleyball and indoor soccer will be held in Broome-Kirk Gym and Var­ sity Gym. Upcoming deadlines for intramural activities include April 8 for weekend wiffleball tournament and April 16 for golf. Anyone interested in becoming in­ volved with intramural activities is en­ couraged to drop by the intramural of­ fice located in the rear of Broome-Kirk Gym or call 262-2100. Sluggers Continued from page 7 Kenny Osborne, to take the Buccaneers 8-6. ETSU staged a comeback in the bottom of the seventh, but Scott Heavner relieved starter Gary Davis to stem the East Tennessee tide and preserve the victory. ASU staged a comeback of its own in the second game, posting two runs in the top of the sixth to win 7-6. Center fielder Will Shellman homered for ASU, and reliever Steve Bronack closed for the win. In an all-too-familiar way, East Ten­ nessee took Monday's game 6-5 with three runs in the bottom of the ninth to avoid a sweep by the visiting Moun- taineers. The forces of naturecontinue to wreak havoc on the ASU schedule, with Wednesday's game at Virginia Tech being canceled and Thursday's game with Milligan being moved to their home field, weather permitting. Next up for the Mountaineers would be (you guessed it) five road games at Furman and number-one ranked Geor­ gia Tech. The Mountaineers' first home game will be Friday, April 2 against North Carolina A&T, provided the weather holds. Everyone should keep their fin­ gers crossed in an effort to get ASU a home game before season's end. Teams Continued from page 7 down nine rebounds apiece while Jeff Williams finished with 14 points and six assists. Ricky Nedd added ten points for the Mountaineers and tied an SC tourna­ ment record with six blocked shots. The Mountaineers finished the sea­ son with an overall record of 13-15 while East Tennessee State advanced to the tournament finals before losing to the University of Tennessee at Chat­ tanooga. The Lady Mountaineers' hopes of a fourth Southern Conference Tourna­ ment Championship in the last five years came to a sudden end on March 11, as they were knocked out in the first round by Georgia Southern 66-56. Appalachian came into the game having won five of the past ten titles, with a streak of three banners from 1990 to 1991. The first round exit, however, was the Lady Apps' second in the past two years. Angie Crosby paced Appalachian with 16 points followed by Karolina Karlqvist who set a Southern Confer­ ence record by connecting on five threepointers for 15 points. Karlqvist gave the Lady Mountain­ eers a six-point lead, their biggest of the game, with 10:46 remaining in the first half. Georgia Southern fought back to take a 30-22 halftime lead, one which they would never relinquish. Appalachian turned the ball over 28 times against the Lady Eagles, some­ thing ASU head coach Linda Robinson knew her team had to cut down on to have a chance to win. Tennis Continued from page 7 pleased with the team's performance. "Right now, what we need is more outdoor time. We have not been out­ side enough but we are playing very well considering that," Kemodle said. The Mountaineers will have their first home match on March 30 as they host UNC-Charlotte at 2:30 p.m. at the Chancellor's Courts behind Walker Hall. "Two things we had to do to win and didn't were turnovers and boxing out," said Robinson. "It is a credit to them to beat us three times this year." Georgia Southern's Janice Johnson led all scorers with 28 points. Andrea Autrey pitched in 17 points in the vic­ tory, but head coach Drema Greer was more impressed with her team's effort on defense. "I felt like our team did a good job of taking away their post game," said Greer. "Any time you hold a team to56 points, that is pretty good defense." Georgia Southern went on to win the Southern Conference Tournament Championship and the Lady Apps fin­ ished the year with a 10-17 overall mark. "We would have liked to put more wins in the win column,"said Robinson. "We feel like we really had a nice team this year, we just had a hard time getting on a role against the tremendous sched­ ule we faced." "I am very proud of the way our team never quit and kept working hard," Robinson added. "We stayed focused on getting better, it just never material­ ized in the win-loss column." The Mountaineers played most of the season without star point guard Penny Roberson, a loss that hurt the team tremendously. "It (Roberson's loss) hurt us a lot," said Robinson. "We were told all year long that we were just one guard short, and we knew who that guard was. We hope to have Penny back full strength for next year and it will also be nice to be getting back the leading scorer in the conference in Angela Crosby."

Well, it is my senior year and I believe I have my story to tell: three feet of snow, military helicopters (complete with bombs) dotting thehorizon, and classes canceled for an entire week to give students a twoweek-long spring break. There was even the great rescue story of when the snowcat from Ski Hawksnest in Seven Devilsdrove down the highway and rescued a man who was stranded atop Rich Mountain in Boone. That trek is a 30-minute drive in a car under optimal conditions! What once seemed like merely a plausible theory has manifested into a prophecy of my future. "Ever hear of the Great Blizzard of '93?" I will ask. "No, I never have," comes the naive reply. "Well, it was my senior year," I begin. "I had gone to Florida to go camping and hang out on the beaches for spring break. It was supposed to end on Sunday, but I ran out of money and came back a few days early, on the Wednesday before." "While my friend and I were refueling just south of Atlanta, Georgia, for thereturn journey, the gas station attendant told us that if we were going to be staying in the area over the weekend, we had better watch out for the snow. Snow? In Atlanta? What were we going to be in for when we got to Boone? If I had only known food court trays in anxious anticipation. The snow began Friday afternoon. Shortly after­ wards, my room became one of many disaster news centers. Friends from far away places called for updates on road conditions. Friends of friends in far away places called for updates on road conditions. "Roads?" I responded curiously. "1 don't think I have seen any roads since midday Saturday. Boone doesn't have any roads anymore. And while I am giving you the lowdown, Boone doesn't have any pedestrian paths either." "As a matter of fact," I continued, "Boone doesn't have any open grocery stores. And no open bars. And no open anything. They're all closed. Boone is closed. Sorry. Come again later." "Is it really that bad?" they ask. "Well, let me tell you how I am getting around," I said. "I have taken two oven racks out of the oven. Using some spare wire I had laying around the room, I have lashed the sides of beer boxes onto the under­ sides of the oven racks to make a firm, wide surface. I have an old pair of hiking boots duct taped to the top of the oven racks for one complete pair of snowshoes. Without them, I wouldn't be able to walk from the student union to the ASU Post Office. That's okay, I guess, because the snow is piled up so high that you can't open the door to the post office anyway." "Wow. That's one huge snow you've got up there," they agreed. "Of course it is," I said. Thinking they might need to be reminded, I added, "After all, it's my senior year." A friend of mine, Lisa Mullikin, has a theory about Appalachian Alumni. Shesays that whenever you talk ; Manager may be reached at 262-2!$7; the editorial oaff may be reached at to an Appalachian Alumnus, sooner or later they will start telling you about the winter of their senior year. She says that all alumni believe that their senior year was the coldest, most foul winter that ASU had ever endured since the beginning of time. "Ever hear of the winter of '71?" they ask. "No," you answer. y night, the student government association came dangerously close "It was the coldest that ASU had ever seen," they etting why they exisit. Originally, student elections were to be held will tell you. "The administration had to cancel y and today, with campaigning beginning on the fifteenth.

Hopefully students will demonstrate their appreciation for support of this type of event by supporting these businesses whenever possible. Prizes were donated by The Red Onion Cafe, Piccadeli Restaurant, Murphy's Patio Pub, 1st Tracks Ski Ship, Farmers Hardware Ski Shop and Ski Hawksnest. Thanks also to all the student organizations who supported the event with their attendance. I thought students might be interested to know that together they comprised the If a student forgets his or her identification card when going to the Quinn Recreation Center, he or she is not permitted to enter. This policy is primarily upheld for insurance purposes. But if a student whd has a physical education class there and forgets his or her identification card, the student is still not permitted to enter the recreational center even if the instructor vouches for the student. A better system would be to have a roster of all the students taking physical education courses in the Quinn Center. If the students forget their identification card then the attendant could look up the student's number just like Resident Hall security does when a student forgets his or her identification card when entering a residence hall after 12 p.m. It is quite frustrating having to walk back across campus to your residence hall or apartment, and then walk back to the Quinn Center to show up for class, in which case the instructor is irritated because of your tardiness and half of the class is already over. The current identification policy of the Quinn Center needs to be reviewed. Too often it is causing I am writing in response to Robert Robertson's column, "It is the couple's right to decide", March 2, which advocated that parents should be aborted. Many people who are more competent than me have argued the case for life. What I want to do is raise two questions. First, why do those who support abortion become so sophistic about defining "human life", as if we all don't really know what it means? They would have one believe that being a "human being" depends on neurological status, viability, usefulness to society, having memories, and having the prospect of a secure and happy life. I would like to come back to my answer to that question after clarifying what L, and I believe most of us, recognize as "human life". When conception occurs, a new living being is created. If she continues to thrive, she is alive. If she dies, she is dead. There is no middle ground. (Regarding abortion, we are not talking about a case in which someone has suffered illness or injury so that the state of neurological development has deteriorated to "brain dead" status. With abortion we are talking about cutting off the normal, natural process of develop­ ment.) Now if that living being was conceived by two humans, the being who has been created cannot be a fish, a cat or a frog. The result of human conception is a human being, a "human life". Yet those who support abortion manage to redefine an unborn human as some sort of non-entity in a manner by which no other unborn being in the animal kingdom would be defined. Why? My answer to the first question is this: Such relabeling makes it easier to kill the unborn child, for it no longer sounds like we are killing. Such relabeling makes it easier to avoid the responsibility of having passed laws which allow such killing. In fact, one's emotional response to the word "kill" in the above sentences indicates just where one stands on the issue. Those who support abortion rankle over the word "kill". But killing is the issue, unless we can define the unborn human being as non-human or non-living (or, of course, unless we simply do not value human life at all). Such labeling is an attempt to escape the responsibility we face. I am calling for some honesty. Abortion involves killing living, human beings. Let's face it. This is my second question: Why do the supporters of abortion base their arguments on rare, exceptional cases and not on what is actually happening in most cases? The vast majority of abortions, 90+%, have nothing to do with health issues, rape or incest. Most abortions are simply for birth control, and many people have more than one abortion for this purpose, not because the unborn child poses any threat to the lives of the parents.

Some students will have the chance to vacation in warner climates while some will have the opportunity to earn money. The library will receive $300,000 from Academic Affairs to buy books and other materials. The money came from over-realized returns from outof-state tuition. Out-of-state student tuition returns were underestimated, leaving the uni­ versity $800,000 more than expected. The money was divided among the five departments according to the department's percentage of the univer­ sity budget. Academic affairs received close to $600,000. During a dean's council meeting Wednesday afternoon, the council de­ cided to give $300,000 of the academic affairs money to the library for books. The rest of the money will be divided among the five colleges for equipment and materials. "It is not a common thing to get over-realized returns.,"said Dr. Wilber Ward, associate vice chancellor for aca­ demic affairs. "It was something unex­ pected" Dr. Mary Reichel, university li­ brarian was pleased that the money was given to the library. "It's wonderful," said Reichel. "The money will be used right away." Reichel said the money would be used for books and microfilm. "The money will be used in ways that will set a lasting contribution, Reichel said. Appalachian and the Community Together offers volunteer services A total of 250 Appalachian students tween the residents of Boone and the students of Appalachian State University by matching students with community service organiz­ ations. currently trained volunteers offertheir time and talents to service janizations in and around Watauga >unty. Appalachian and the Community together (ACT) bridges the gap be­ "ACT...promotes student involve­ ment in the community around the uni­ versity. There are over 30 organiza­ tions that we work with on a regular basis, and all of them need volunteers," , COLLEEN ALDRIDGE ff Writer said Shaun Slatterly, the public rela­ tions officer for ACT. "By volunteeringfor any of the orga­ nizations, students gain many advan­ tages. Working to better the environ­ ment, working with new people and obtaining experience for the future are only a few of the benefits," said Slatterly. "This is a way that one personcan make a difference and see him or herself making that difference." ACT is a liason for many service organizations in Watauga and surround­ ing counties. Students interested in vol­ unteering become involved in ACT for training and placement. During the annual semester day-long training session, students listen to rep­ resentatives of all participating service organizations. The students then choose a program best suited to their needs and abilities. "Volunteers will receive both a gen­ eral orientation to the program and more intensive training once placed with an agency. No previous experience is re­ quired - only a willingness to leam and share your time, your talents and your­ self," said Peggy Setzcr, director of Appalachian and the Community To­ gether. The Watauga Youth Network volun­ teers work with at-risk youths in a Big Buddy program and a tutoring pro­ gram. The Buddy program is a year­ long committment in which a student is partnered with a child and is required to spend a specific amount of time with the child.

The Appalachian is printing summaries of the articles 'th the correct photographs. Adams also cites safety as a pressing issue the university must address. He advocates police foot patrols at night, more blue lights and an the expansion of Appalcart. He feels SG A has let the mountaineer escort service fall to the side and that efforts must be made to ensure the service continues. Environmental issues, especially re­ cycling, is the third issue Adams de­ scribes as most important. He would like to see recycling available inside the residence halls and improvementsmade on and off campus, including plastic recycling. Academics, safety and the environ# it are the three most important isle* facing Appalachian ttc University, according J-D.

He suggests " academic advising be fe a higher priority and lat more multicultural **sscs should be integrated Featherston foe curriculum. See ADAMS page 2 and Adams Richard Blackwelder By SUZI LANDIS News Editor One issue that can be put into effect next year is a student fee increase to support Mountaineer Escort. Blackwelder says he will lobby the administration and the general assem­ bly for a two dollar safety fee per stu­ dent per semester. As a major part of preserving Appalachian's environment, Blackwelder intends to increase indoor and outdoor recycling on campus. If elected, Blackwelder would like to see in-hall recycling replace thetrash chutes in residence halls. Putting trash bins outside residence halls and issuing in­ dividual recycling bins to residents would cut down on trash and encourage a habit of recycling, said Blackwelder. Richard Blackwelder hopes to re­ structure student government if he is elected SGA president. Restructuring student government is one of five issues Blackwelder feels SGA and the university need to ad­ dress. Diversity enhancement, a qual­ ity library, safety on campus, and pre­ serving the environment are Blackwelder's long-term priorities. wide Appalachian should offer range of cultural events, in­ clude co-curriculum alterna­ tives, and recruit minority fac­ ulty in Blackwelder's view. Blackwelder's proposals in­ clude more SGA sponsored cultural events and SGA sup­ port of efforts to attract mi­ nority faculty. Blackwelder wants to see students actively involved in raising the quality of Belk li­ brary. It's a complex matter, but the solution to the prob­ Martin lem is to get money, he says. and Blackwelder Dan Gurley By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor Student Government needs to be proactive rather than reactive, says Dan Gurley, student government president who is seeking reelection. Safety and security, academics and student involve­ ment in university decisions are issues he says SGA needs to address. Gurley says he would like to see more of a security presence walking around campus, particularly at night. Bike patrols could be a possibility. Gurley maintains that Mountaineer Escort is not a SGA role, but a security role and would still like to see the university as­ sume responsibility for theser­ vice. Another issue that Gurley says needs to be addressed is the library. He is more wor­ ried about what is in the li­ brary than the building itself. "Obviously, more funding is needed,"says Gurley. "We are not the only ones in this boat. AlltheotherUNCschool libraries are suffering." Gurley believes the university needs to expand its recycling program to in­ clude plastics. However, he does not favor a broad expansion until recycling is done correctly. He cites several contamination problems in the current program, such as mixing glass colors, as needing improvement. Gurley says recycling education must be expanded before we expand what we recycle. Gurley feelsSGA must lobby against further cuts in the UNC system's bud­ get as well as oppose tuition increases. He did say, however, that fee increases were necessary to provide students with adequate services, such as health ser­ vices.

The businessman hopes others in Wayne County and North Carolina will endow similar scholarships.

Adams Continued from page 1 Adams says the administration and the students are going to have to work together to make the library top prior­ ity. Specifically, that the library needs to spend less on periodicals and more on books and move to a computerized system to get journals according to Adams. With proposed tuition increases and possibility offee increases, Adamssays the university must look at each spe­ cific item. He says tuition increases are not needed right now, however fee in­ creases must be reviewed and justified One area Adams says is deserving of a fee increase is health services, which has not had a fee increase in seven years. Scholarship Continued from page 1 alumnus. He choose to establish the scholarship at the university because "he feels it offers a good basic educa­ tion with reasonable tuition rates," Hammond said. The donor did not select a predomi­ nantly black school because he feels parity and equality doesn't happen in" isolation or by segregation. "It's important to compete academi­ cally with all demographic groups," Hammond said. The winning student must meet all of Appalachian's admission standards and agree to major in math or science. The award is renewable if a minimum 2.5 grade point average is met. The recipi­ ent must also remain a full-timestudent at Appalachian. ACT Continued from page 1 provided homes for residents of Avery County. The Blue Ridge Environmental De­ fense League is an organization that focuses on environmental education, research and action. It is one of the agencies that ACT works with on a regular basis, and one of the many that is in need of volunteers. OASIS, another organization that works with ACT, focuses on domestic violence and sexual assault. Theirneeds are concentrated on volunteers for cri­ sis line work and client advocacy. As do many of these organizations, OA­ SIS has their own training program that prepares their volunteers for situations they may come in contact with. ACT recently formed the Coalition of Service Organizations which cur­ rently involves approximately 20 clubs on campus.

About 380 college students will work on rebuilding 36 homes in two poverty stricken counties in eastern Kentucky, said Ruth Morrison, a spokeswoman for the Lancaster, Ky.based organization. While the project needs volunteers all year, Morrison said it made a con­ certed effort to have student volunteers during spring break. "It's a very good feeling. There's a lot of perks, being able to meet similar students from all over the country," Morrison said. "Plus, the land is breathtakingly beautiful."

Carroll has taught at Appalachian for ten years in both the physics and education departments. He currently teaches introduction to teaching as well as classes dealing with high school and middle school science and math. He has also had experience teaching microcomputers. Before coming to the college level, Carroll taught high school science and math for six years. Four of those years were spent teaching on the Navajo Indian Reservation in Arizona. Carroll considers his Navajo teaching experi­ ence "a gift put into my lap byGod." Carroll was chosen from a search list for the job and re­ mained with the reservation until he married and moved back east. Outside of the classroom, Carroll finds sev­ eral other ways of educating people about science and mathematics. He developed a "High Volt­ age Safety Presentation" demonstration for sixth grade students in the Blue Ridge Electric Mem­ bership Cooperative service area and supervised physics education majors who did the presenta­ tions in the same area. He also is the former director of Appalachian Summer Ventures in Science and Mathematics. Carroll believes that emphasis should be placed on the individualin regard to education and that both the content as well as the composition of the class is important. "When someone asks me what I teach, my response is always that I teach students," Carroll nppaiacnum pnoto oy nanay Keminx DEDICATED TEACHER: Carroll invests his time and energy in field of teaching. For over fifteen years, he has taught high school and college.

March 4. 799? Spring break means follow the rules Carroll Continued from page 2 said. "It's important to keep in mind that it's the students I'm teaching, not microcomputers." Carroll considers Appalachian'seducation program the best in the state. He would like to see undergraduates have more time to work with microcomput­ ers in the future. He would also like the program to become more content spe­ cific and have more time devoted to methods courses. By LISA LAUGHLIN Et Cetera Editor Carroll spends much of his spare time devoted to his two young children but manages to find time for other interests as well. He is interested in what the state is doing in microcomput­ ers reform and also in concepts of passive solar energy. If you plan to be heading to Myrtle Beach for Spring Break, it's a good idea to keep in mind some of the rules and regulations of the City of Myrtle Beach. No open beer cans or wine in public areas or on the beach; no alcohol what­ soever is allowed on the beach.

New York—David Cone will be sorely Gooden on downside of stellar, but uhled career. Defense, the weak link in '92, 1 improve. The Appalachian State men's tennis squad is preparing for what should be an exciting season, according to ASU Head Coach Michael Kemodle. "This is the best team that I have had since I have been here," said Kemodle, who is in his fourth year at the realm of the program. "I foresee a good season for us. The team is very cohesive and they get along so well. I have been thoroughly pleased with their efforts." The Mountaineers will be led by senior David Rea. Rea, who is currently seeded first on the squad, has played in one of the two top slots for the past four years. "David has had some injuries in the past and I feel that this has kept him from playing to his potential. He has really developed lately and is a strong baseline player," Kemodle said. Freshman Manuel Zapata will fill the second seed for the Apps. Zapata, who comes to ASU from Mexico City, Mexico, was the sixth best player in his home nation inhisfinalyearofhigh school and a top doubles player as well. "He is the whole package," Kemodle said. "He is a really quick player and he is very tough. He will be a tremendous addition to the squad." Playing at the third seed for ASU is junior Bill Plautz. Plautz, a co-captain, will team with Zapata for the first seed in doubles. The fourth, fifth and sixth seeds will be filled by senior co-captain Heath Marston, senior Greg Dulin and freshman Zach Sharpe respectively. hxJri Sharpe and sophomore Ben Gerace will team for the second seed in doubles while Marston and Dulin will compose the third doubles team. The Mountaineers also will look to freshman Blake Pendleton for strength. "Although he (Pendleton) is not in our line-up now, he will be essential for us in the future," Kemodle said. ASU will kick off their schedule over Spring Break with a series of games in Orlando and Tampa, Florida. The Mountaineers will play Central Florida and Stetson in Orlando before meeting Pitts­ burgh, Marquette and William and Mary in 4-4 44 Tampa. "These will be tough games for us,"Kemodle 4-4explained. "Last year we barely beat Central Florida and we lost to Stetson. I am not sure about Pittsburgh, and William and Mary will be •. • rr extremely tough. We should be fairly even with Marquette." i i The Apps will then begin their Southern Con­ t Appalachian photo by Randy Reinink ference slate with an away match at Furman.

The Carolina Friendship -.apsycho-social rehabilitation program,needs volunteers to run errands The last line of the poem read at Clinton's inauguration was "Good Morning." It is an often repeated phrase intended to help someone through the torturous process of trying to wake up. Every morning at 8:00 a.m. my alarm goes off and five or six good reasons to stay in bed float through my mind. As I march into the world I hear a litany of much too cheerful voices imploring me to have a "good morning." Waking up is painful, as we are beginning to real­ ize. The approval ratings for Clinton's tough economic plan signal that our sleep has become restless, the alarm has gone off, and we have a big collec­ tive decision to make. Are we going to roll over, shirk our responsibilities, and try to get back to sleep, or are we going to face the day? Let's first look at what facing the day will entail. A new energy tax, which will cost $10 a month for every American earn­ ing less than $75,000 a year. This will make it profitable for our national economy to be more energy conscious, which is in our best interest. Americans expend twice as much energy for each unit of Gross National Product as Japan and Germany, which makes our products five percent more expensive, and our environment that much worse. By discouraging oil consumption wedeflatc the importance of Middle Eastern countries, and encourage the use of cleaner fuels. This tax will also cut 25 percent of the governments $10 billion energy bill. Overall our country will be cleaner, more competitive, less reliant on the largest contributor to our trade deficit (oil), and in better fiscal health. -'P with arts and crafts. , SIS requests volunteers to help with crisis line work and offer shelterand care for women.

Student supports Final Grade Appeal To the Editor: I am writing this letter to express support for the Final Grade Appeal Procedure that is going to be voted on in the Faculty Senate this week. I have reviewed the materials regard­ Never in our history have we had such a disparity in wages. When so few of our citizens have the means to invest in themselves, their children, their busi nesses and their country it hurts every­ one, even the millionaires; therefore, the wealthiest among us should sacri­ fice for the rest of us and for the well being of their country. Don't allow yourself to fall for the Republican rhetoric that we are punishing those who work hard and are productive. Most of our parents earn $25 to $40 thousand a year. They work hard. They are productive. The Japanese and the Germans in­ vest in their country, spending around 12 percent of their Gross National Prod uct (GDP) on themselves. We spend four percent of our GDP on ourselves, to our detriment. As a result we spend less money per student than Japan and Germany, our roads and bridges are crumbling, our employees are undertrained, and our business community is forced to function in this bad business environment. For instance, Japanese industry has access to a population that is almost 100 percent literate, ours is only about 75 percent competitive. Public investment is lower than at any time in modem history, in order to compete. In the global economy we must take good care of ourselves. Our national economy is not a sym­ bolic issue like flag burning or gays in the military, where wecan afford widely divergent opinions. Regardless of who wins these sym­ bolic debates, the country is not vitally affected. But the broad issue of the economy speaks to the heart of our national security, as well as our way of life. We are in a crisis. A $4 trillion debt, declining standards of living, foreign ownership, a deficient educational system, unaffordable health care and a recession all demand action. Young Republicans for our president to put this package forward as a deficit reduction plan. The Democrats in Congress tell us to get behind the president and sacrifice for our country. They say that the Ameri­ can people voted for action this year and therefore the president has a man­ date to act. Is this what the American people voted for? How did Bill Clinton sell his presidency to thepeople? Well, he just told the American people that he was going to tax the rich, and class envy did the rest. "All right! Those terrible rich people are going to get theirs now. Boy I can't wait to see them pay." The problem is, those rich people are the ones who invest in this country and create jobs. Without investors and en­ trepreneurs there will be no jobs for the great middle class of this country. Remember though, when A1 Gore and Bill Clinton attacked Dan Quayle for saying that Clinton's plan would raise taxes on everyone making over $36,000 a year? Do you remember Clinton accusing Quayle of scare tac­ tics and saying that he would only raise taxes on those making over $200,000 a year? Well, now President Clinton is raising taxes on everyone making over $20,000 a year. If we really want to deal with our deficit we should do as Jack Kemp, leader of Empower America, has said. We should set a goal for ourselves to double our Gross Domestic Product by the year 2000. If we had a $10 trillion economy, for example, we gain at least a trillion dollars in tax revenue. If we concentrate on achieving thisgoal while we cut wasteful spending and hold the line on other spending we can certainly balance our budget. At present levels some estimates show that all together, government takes about 50 percentof the average person's paycheck. TheClintonplan ignores this fact and concentrates its so-called defi­ cit reduction plan on higher taxes on hardworking Americans who just can­ not afford to pay any more. The Reagan tax cuts of the early 1980s proved that cutting taxes raises government rev­ enues. The reason for our massive defi­ cit is not too little taxes. As Republican congressmen have been pointing out, it's spending, stupid! By JONATHAN ARROWOOD Special to the Appalachian In spite of one's partisan affiliation, ideology or cynical attitude I think we can all agree that our new president's call for sacrifice was so well delivered that it can only harken back to the brilliant performances by Ronald Reagan and Franklin Roosevelt. The president is right, at least on one point; the American people are willing to sac­ rifice to strengthen our economy and reduce our nation's disgraceful debt and budget deficit. The American people will support this plan if they believe it will accomplish these goals. However, as the details of the plan begin to surface in the form of real legislation I think one thing will become perfectly clear. President Clinton's plan simply will not work. It would be impossible with this lim­ ited amount of space to critique the entire plan, so I will focus on only a few items. First of all, the president claims that we need to grow our economy, and I agree. So, to grow the economy he proposes a stimulus package of $31 billion and then raises taxes by $328 billion. Nowhere in history can you find an instance when raising taxes has helped to grow an economy. Secondly, this plan is being sold as a sacrifice that we must make to reduce the budget deficit. Our deficit is now about $290 billion. By the WhiteHouse estimates that came out last week, if the Clinton plan is put into effect by 1997 our deficit will be $206 billion, and then it will begin torise again. By 1998 the deficit will be $240 billion, and then by 1999 it will be $400 billion. So, the American people will be paying higher taxes and getting a higher deficit. This is absolutely ridiculous. I thought that we had teamed from the 1990 budget deal that was then lauded as a deficit reduction package. The Congress raised taxeson the Ameri Our country is about to make an historic collective decision. Are we can people in an attempt to gain control of the deficit. Instead, the tax increase going to listen to the voices who can deepened the recession and increased give five or six good reasons to stay in our deficit. It is intellectually dishonest bed, or are we going to wake up? ing this proposal. I have found the material to be quite thorough in addressing issues that may arise due to a document of this nature. As Vice-President of the Graduate Student Association Senate, I would like to take this opportunity to urge other students and faculty to support this proposal. As a graduate student and a teaching assistant, I find the proposal quite fair. In a university, we try to I want to urge students and faculty to support this proposal. One way to express support is to contact the faculty senator of their department. They could also indicate their support by writing to The Appalachian. I hope to see this proposal pass this week. It will be a greater step towards furthering fairness and justice at Appalachian State University. convey a sense of justice to our students. We also try to provoke thought among students in the classroom by questioning current issues and raising new issues. The Final Grade Appeal Procedure is not a means in which students will be capable of "bullying" professors into giving grades undeserving of the students. It is a means by which the scales are balanced to provide fairness in the grading procedure. Melissa A.

Greer. The march celebrated African-American culture and marked the end of Black History Month. Approximately 30 students, faculty and administrators marked the end of Black History Month Sunday with "A Journey Continues". The group participated in a march from Whitener Hall to I.G. Greer spon­ sored by Delta Sigma Theta sorority. Tammie Tolbcrt, secretary for Delta Sigma Theta, told the group that the purpose of the walk was to "honor the jeople who have paved the way." Participants walked from Whitener Hall to I.G. Greer singing "We Shall Overcome", "Lift Every voice and Sing", and "I Feel Like Going On". When the procession reached I.G. Greer, Tolbert thanked the group saying that the experience enabled them "to share in some of the things our ancestors shared in. At I.G. Greer, the sorority presented a program including African-Ameri­ can campus leaders and African-Ameri­ can performers and artists on campus. Tasha White, president of the Black Student Association, encouraged the group to recognize their potential and strive to make the most of their abili­ ties. Student Government Vice President Douglas Duncan told the audience to take action to improve unity said Monica Davis, Delta Sigma Theta vice presi­ dent. Other students displayed and/or per­ formed their "hidden talents" according to Delta Sigma Theta soror­ ity Vice President Monica Davis. Singers, dancers, poets and dramatic interpreters highlighted the program. "A Journey Continues" march will be an annual event sponsored by Delta Sigma Theta said Davis. Davis felt the event did okay for the first year, but "it could have been bet­ ter." For next year, the sorority plans to incorporate a broad range of people and talents. Narrations and scenes depicting the African-American heritage will hope­ fully be incorporated in next year's program said Davis. tudent government presidential candidates speak out on issues I. D.

Adams says that academics is the *>st wttportant issue as it is "the reason afe here." He suggests that acac advising be made a higher prior^d that more multicultural classes Id be integrated into the curricu- lum. Adams also cited safety as a pressing issue the university must address. He advocates police foot patrols at night, more blue lights and the expansion of the Appalcart. He also says that SGA has let the Mountaineer Escort service fall to the side and that efforts must be made to ensure the service continues. "I will make sure people are there to drive and answer the phones," s a i d Adams. "I will goand drive my­ self if that'swhat needs to be done." Adams said the service needs to have later hours and supports an IFC-Panhellenic council proposal to staff the service on a volunteer basis. Environmental matters, especially recycling, are the third issue Adams described as most important. He would like to see recycling available inside the residence halls and improvements made on and off campus, including plastic By Dawn McGuire Assistant News Editor Involvement with ASU is nothing new for junior David Cox. However, he says he was taken completely by sur­ prise when Dan Gurley asked him to run for student government vice presi­ dent.

"By the time I get through with SGA it willbemore powerful. It needs to be," said Blackwelder. Student government is an iso­ lated orga­ nization and not effec­ tive, accord­ ing to Blackwelder. He feels communication in the organi­ zation has to increase and be strength­ ened. "Under my plan, I will utilize talents on campus" to structure a student gov­ ernment that will be a sounding board for all organizations, said Blackwelder. Restructuring student government is one of five issues Blackwelder feels See ADAMS page 2 SGA and the university need to ad­ David Cox falls in Richard Blackwelder organization. "If there is a strong student opinion on campus, then SGA should stop at nothing to get things done," said Cox. Cox said SGA's role is to take stu­ dent opinion to the administration and lo have an active role, not a reactive role on important issues. y h&s gone to the administralion with an issue and they do not react, it is SGA's role to become confronta­ tional," Cox said. Cox has dealt with both students and the admii istration through his involve­ ment in a variety of campus organiza­ tions Cox has been involved with CRSA, Coffey Hall RSA, and WASU since his freshman year. Currently a junior, Cox now sits on several univer- dress. Diversity enhancement, aquality library, safety on campus, and preserv­ ing the environment are Blackwelder's long-term priorities. Appalachian should offer a wide range of cultural events, include cocurriculum alternatives, and recruit minority faculty in Blackwelder'sview. Blackwelder's proposals for diversity enhancement includemore SGA-sponsored cult u r a 1 events and SGA support of the Black Student Asocdim's efforts to attract mi­ nority facllty.

Safety and security, academics and student involvement in university decisions are issues he says SGA needs to ad­ dress. Gurley sees major problems with the way secu­ rity is perceived. "I question their priorites," said Gurley. "Security needs to be a lot more visible on campus and I don't mean just sitting in cars." Gurley would like to see more of a security presence walking around cam­ pus, particularly at night. Gurley sug­ gested bike patrols could be a possibil­ ity. Deidre Martin Edith Featherston, student govern­ ment vice presidential candidate, says her experience outside of student gov­ ernment will bring a wider range of student opinions to SGA. "Who is better to represent the stu­ dents than someone just like them," Featherston said. Featherston, who has no previous experience with SGA will be running with J.D. Adams and says they make a ticket that balances SGA experience with student perspectives. "When J.D. asked me to run I was surprised because it was something I'd never thought about before," said Featherston. "I realized what a good team we made, with his experience inside SGA and my experience outside of the organization." Featherston says her inexperience with SGA will not hurt, but will bring in new input. She says that although she has never been a member of SGA, she has a good understanding of how the organization works. Featherston's experience outside SGA ranges from various roles in resi­ dence life to strong involvement in the See GURLEY page 2 By DAWN McGUIRE Assistant News Editor The prospect of addressing multicultural issues at Appalachian contributed to Deidre Martin's deci­ sion to run as Richard Blackwelder's vice president. Although all the issues are equally important, said Martin, multiculturalism has the highest priority because it af­ fects all issues. "Multiculturalism is the annihilation of all ignorance, whether it be racial, sexual or religious, through education," said Martin. Like Blackwelder, Martin feels student government has the potential to have a bigger impact on campus. "First I'd like to see more inter­ action between SGA and other organizations," said Martin. "SGA should be a tree in which other clubs are branches." Students, faculty, staff and commu­ nity should be encouraged tovoice their concerns to student government, ac­ cording to Martin. Two problems Martin would like to address are the lack of understanding and communication between students and the administration and the avail- Gurley maintains t h a t Moun­ taineer Escort is not a SGA role, but a secu ri ty role and would still like to see the univer­ sity assume responsibility for the ser­ vice. Gurley said that SGA has had much success in the area of academics during the past year and has worked extremely well with faculty senate on academic issues. The SGA acadei.Jc affairs commit­ tee has presented and won approval on Edith Featherston By SUZI LANDIS News Editor Gurley also questions the way secu­ rity spends money. "I don't see a more visible presence on campus," Gurley said. "What I do see are lots of new vehicles, several of which are equipped with radar." Gurley docs support IFC-Panhellinic involvement in Mountaineer Escortand says he is encouraged by their offer to volun| teer. See FEATHERSTON page 2 Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Appalachian police arrested and charged an ASU student with check fraud Friday. The student had written a $1700 worthless check to the univer­ sity for tuition costs, said ASU Police Captain Larry Foster. A $2000 se­ cured bond was set by the judge. The case is scheduled for court on March 23. Three Ashe County men were ar­ rested and charged with carrying a concealed weapon by Boone police Saturday night as a result of an inci­ dent reported on campus. Two Appalachian students reported three males following them onto cam­ pus from Brown Heights Apartments early Saturday morning. According to the report, one male appeared to be carrying a sawed-off riffle. ASU police obtained descriptions of the suspects and the automobile. With the descriptions, Boone Police recognized and stopped the car Sun­ day. A Gardner resident admitted toset­ ting off a smoke detector in Gardner residence hall Sunday. The student blew smoke at the alarm causing the device to go off, said Foster. Police issued the student a univer­ sity citation. The Boone fire depart­ ment has requested the student pay restitution of $200 to $300 for the fireman answering the call at 2:00 a.m. University Police identified thesus­ pect that damaged the First Union ATM machine last week. The ASU student has confessed to police and will pay for the damage estimated at $300. A bicycle rack owned by Outdoor Programs was stolen from a vehicle behind the bookstore Thursday. In­ vestigation is pending. Police charged an ASU student with damaging and defacing state property after the student kicked in a door in Cannon residence hall. The door to Room 302had to be replaced at a cost of $165. See CRIME page 2 �2 The Appalachian. Tuesday.

Gurlev Continued from page 1 several issues this semester, including the sexual orientation policy, a grade appeal proposal and a dead week reso­ lution. Gurley said it is important to remem­ ber that SGA is only a recommending body. "People must understand that noth­ ing we pass is binding but by develop­ ing good working relationships with individuals, we can influence the deci­ sion making process," Gurley said. Gurley, a junior has been involved with SGA for three years. He was an off- campus senator his freshman year, director of state affairs his sophomore year and is current SGA president. Gurley said he is running for reelection because he has a "genuine belief he can make ASU better and that his expe­ rience makes him an effective spokes­ man. "By virtue of having served in office before it's a situation of not hav­ ing to learn my way around,"said Gurley. Another issue that Gurley said needs to be addressed is the library. He is more worried about what is in the li­ brary than the building itself. "Obviously, more funding is needed," said Gurley. "We are not the only ones in this boat. All the other UNC school libraries are suffering." Gurley says the library should move to an on-line computer link to other UNC schools. Gurley says the university needs to expand its recycling program to include plastics, however he does not favor a broad expansion until recycling is done correctly. He cites several contaimination problems in the current program, such as mixing glass colors, as needing improvement. Gurley says recycling education must be ex­ panded before we expand what we re­ cycle. Gurley supports the university's plan for phone registration, which would add phone lines but not replace the computerized system. Gurley saysSGA must lobby against further cuts in the UNC system's bud­ get as well as oppose tuition increases. He did say that fee increases were nec­ essary to provide students with adequate services, such as health services. In the area of multiculturalism, Gurley says the university is reponsible for providing students with options in the curriculum. Gurley says SGA has been the most sucessful this year in working withother groups. He cites CRSA and faculty senate as examples. "SGA has worked extremely well with other organizations in cooperative efforts toget things done,"Gurley said. Adams Continued from page 1 recycling. Adams would like to see theAdopta-Campus program reinstated.The pro­ gram hasuniversity organizations clean up areas of campus. He said the pro­ gram should continue and be expanded into the community. "With 12,000 students, we surely should beable to take on a little bitmore than what we're doing now to preserve the environment," Adams said. Another important issue is the li­ brary, according to Adams, who said it is something the university must deal with immediately. "Our library is something that cannot be ignored any longer; funding has got to increase," said Adams. "If there is any place the university cannot afford to cut back, it is the library." The administration and the students are going to have to work together to make the library top priority, said Adams. Specifically, Adams said that the library needs to spend less on peri­ odicals and more on books and move to sity committees, including the influen­ tial academic policy and procedures committee. Cox is also on the library service committee and is on SGA's academic and student affairs committees. Cox is a member of the university traditions task force, which is working toresearch and preserve ASU's history. Cox admits his activities leave him little free time; however, he does make room for fun and relaxation. "I'm not a workaholic, not even close," said Cox. "But my sense of responsibility keeps me involved." Cox said a bigchallenge with SGA is dealing with 75 different people with different ideas of what students can accomplish. Cox said he enjoys work­ ing to form one message tobe delivered to the campus. "Student Government has an amaz­ ing ability to be a positive force," said Cox. "You have to take all thedifferent concerns and make one message. That's a tremendous task and I hope to be a part of it." Cox is majoring in English second­ ary education. He plans to teach high school after graduating and then possi­ bly return for a graduate degree. Martin Continued from page 1 ability of student government to stu­ dents. "We need to stress that SGA is their [students'] governing body,theirvoice," said Martin. As a sophomore from Winston-Salem, Martin has not been involved with Stu­ dent Government. Although she lacks experience in SGA, Martin feels being an active student and seeing the differ­ ent perspectives from her various club and organization memberships will only benefit the things she has to offer to student government. Martin is vice president of the Black Student Association, a student conduct advocate in Judicial Affairs, a member of the Order of Black and Gold, and is in the process of re-opening the campus NAACP chapter. As an honor student majoring in psy­ chology and double minoring in inter­ national business and black studies, Martin hopes to attend Harvard Law School after graduation. As a woman, Martin believes she can represent the voice of women and their needs on campus. Women are misrep­ resented in university committees, even though they are a majority of the Appa­ lachian population, said Martin. Featherston Continued from page 1 Appalachian Ambassadors. Featherston, who is a junior, was a CRSA representative her sophomore year and iscurrently an RA in Dough ton. She has been an ambassador since her sophomore year and is secretary this year. She credits her involvement with the ambassadors with providing her knowledge about ASU. "You have to know a lot about the university," said Featherston. "You learn how to relate well to students and parents." Featherston said she donates a lot of time to working with the ambassador program, but that it would not affect her involvement with SGA. "I spend a lot of time at the ambassador's office, doing whatever needs to be done," Featherston said. "Although ambassadors is a big prior­ ity for me, I probably put in more time than required and can divert that time to SGA." Featherston is an elementary educa­ tion major, concentrating in English. She says she loves children and would like to teach children English overseas. Adams says that the new chancellor needs to be open to student input and faculty and staff. "We need a chancellor who is will­ ing, eager, and determined to listen to the'students," Adams said. "Before agendas are set, the welfare of every­ one that comprises this university must be considered." Adams also said the new chancellor must be committed to educating stu­ dents and accepting of diversity. With proposed tuition increases and possibility of fee increases, Adams says the university must look at each spe­ cific item. He says tuition increases are not needed right now; however, fee increases must be reviewed and justi­ fied. One area Adams says is deserving of a fee increase is health services, which has not had a fee increase in seven years. "We cannot afford to cut health ser­ vices and we must be willing to pay a little bit more to receive these services," Adams said. Adams supports the implementation of a phone registration sv„ concerned that the systi ^ handle student demands » that the university with this issue to avoid other universities face wL ^* istration. "We must make sure we k phone lines to adequately dents and we also need V"* computer registration," said The Student Activity Cent1 not even be an issue right no! ing to Adams.

Adams is double majoring j; cai science and communicant currently sits on several universit,, mittees, such as the traffic ai committee, the residence life committee and the committeefo tutional studies and planning. Blackwelder Continued from page 1 grading the library. He admits the solu­ tion will be a long process of assessing the needs of the library, getting ap­ proval from the administration and then soliciting donations. As with all the long-term issues, Blackwelder feels the groundwork can be laid down by his administration. "Blueprints are the key," added Blackwelder. One issue that can be put into effect next year is a student fee increase to support Mountaineer Escort. Blackwelder said he will lobby the ad­ ministration and the general assembly for a two-dollar safety fee per student per semester. "I feel like the administration cannot give funds tosupport this [Mountaineer Escort]. The general assembly cannot give funds. So it is the responsibility of the students to give something in order to get something out of it [Mountaineer Escort]," said Blackwelder. The fee will allot Mountaineer Es­ cort $48,000 to pay escorts and upgrade the service. The proposal will eliminate the volunteer system that puts Moun­ taineer Escort in jeopardy, said Blackwelder. As a major part of preserving Appalachian's environment, Blackwelder intends to increase indoor and outdoor recycling on campus if elected. The committee member salary that will be available as a result of the combining of two student government committees could be used to make the SGA environmental committee more effective, said Blackwelder. Blackwelder would like to see inhall recycling replace the trash chutes in residence halls. Putting trash bins outside residence halls and issuing in­ dividual recycling bins to residents would cutdown on trash and encourage a habit of recycling, said Blackwelder. Outside, Blackwelder suggests in­ stalling recycling bins similar to those on King Street around ASU. Further­ more, recycling should be integrated in freshmen orientation, said Blackwelder. "None of these [issues] are going to change overnight. That's why I'mdedi­ cated to structuring SGA so these ques­ tions will be addressed when I leave," said Blackwelder. "I know it's going to be a lot of work and take a lot of money and time. I'm not looking for short term issues," said Blackwelder. In other issues, Blackwelder is against tuition increases and phone registra­ tion. He recognizes parking as a prob­ lem, but feels that Business Affairs Vice Chancellor Dr. Ward Zimmerman will correct the problem with the university's ten-year master plan. Blackwelder supports a student ac­ tivity center, if the complex will pro­ vide increased academic space for Health, Leisure and Exercise S department.

I very sincere about that," he said. READY FOR A CHANGE? Come By and See Our Apartments Crime Continued from page 1 a computerized system to get journals. Adams says that with strong leader­ ship, SGA can deal with these issues. He says SGA needs a president who is willing and able to work with the ad­ ministration, yet not afraid to disagree. Adams says he is prepared to take a strong stand for the students. "The SGA president must be willing to make a strong stand when it is neces­ sary," said Adams. Adams has been involved in SGA since he arrived at ASU. An off-cam­ pus senator his freshman year, Adams, now a sophomore, was appointed di­ rector of state affairs for the1992-93 term. He resigned from his position this semester in order to run for election. Adams says he has seen SGA move to a level that is not truly focused on students and describes the SGA's rela­ tions with students as terrible, a situa­ tion he says his administration would correct "SGA needs programs that focus on students," said Adams. "We (SGA) cannot expect students to come to us. SGA has to go to them."

Jeff Reid, a senior at Appalachian, has the job of making this first impression a positive one. Reid is a Student Ambassador, giving tours to potential students and their parents. Reid has been an ambassador for three years and is currently the president. As well asgiving toursto high school students and their parents, the ambassadors are also re­ sponsible for showing alumni the campus and giving special tours to different types of groups such as younger children or senior citizens. "Different groups are interested in different things," he said. "We have to cater the tours to that." Blah. Blah. Blah. It's that time of year Reid and the other ambassadors have to know . That time right before Spring Break as much aspossible about the campus as they art everyone seems to be catching any often asked unusual questions.

The faculty recital begins at 8 p.m. Admission is free. A study in swear words (CPS) Dr. Timothy Jay is called the "Doctor of Dirty Words" and "The Pre-eminent Scholar of Profanity" and says he likes nothing better than a spirited discussion on the cursing habits of the American public. The psychology professor at North Adams State College has written a book titled "Cursing in America" (John Benjamins Publishing Co.) that explores different types of cursing, how children learn obscene words, and how men and women differ in the use of obscenities. For example, women are often insulted by men for openly expressing their sexuality. Jay said. "Men don't realize how offensive some words are to women. Men, on theother hand, get upset when they are referred to as effeminate. That's because themale sex role is still sorigidly defined." Swear words remain fairly stable, Jay noted, with new words appearing from deviant subcul- tures such as music, drugs and prostitution from time to time. Hip new words, however, rarely last. Everyone swears, Jay said, and people have been swearing for centuries. The only two groups who do not swear are some elderly women and the religious right, he's discovered. "I think swearing is important for emotional expression, but every book on language ignores the phenomenon," said Jay, who said he swears much less as a college professor than when he was an ice hockey player and construction worker. Jay's obsession with profanity started in high school whilelistening to comedian Lenny Biuce. The material for the book, which he started collecting in graduate school, look 20 years to compile.

The Mountaineers, after having led 44-31 at halflime, lost the game in the last minute and are now the tournament's seventh seed. With only 33 seconds remaining and ASU on top 78-77 with the ball, Trazel Silvers picked Billy Ross' pocket and converted a lay-up to give the Buccaneers their second lead of the game. Silvers again came up with a steal on the Mountaineers next possession and pitched it a head to Darcll Jones who gaveETSU a three-point lead with seven seconds remaining. "It was a very disappointing loss for us," said ASU head coach Tom Apke. "To have led for 39 minutes and come away with the loss, it was very disap­ pointing." Jeff Williams led the Mountaineers with a career-high 21 points in a perfor­ mance of which Apke was proud. "He did a really good job of running the show and getting everyone in­ Appalachian photo by Stacy Branch volved," said Apke.

Ross finished his last regular season game in an Appalachain uniform with 20 points while freshman Brian Hege chipped in 14. The Mountaineers fell behind early in the contest but used a 12-4 run in the last six minutes of the first half to build a lead. ASU led throughout the entire second half, but ETSU stayed close behind 14 second-half points by Jerry Pelphrey and 15 second-half points by Silvers, including the game-winning play. Pelphrey finished the game with 23 points to lead all scorers while Silvers totaled 20. Eric Palmer chipped in 15 points for the Buccaneers. The Mountaineers finish the season with an 8-10 mark in the SC and 12-14 mark overall. The loss at ETSU put them in a three-way tiefor sixth place in the final Southern Conference stand­ ings with The Citadel and Furman. The Mountaineers were awarded the seventh seed when the conference con­ sidered the three teams' records against each other. The Citadel took the fifth seed and Furman ended up eighth. ASU starts tournament play on Thurs­ day evening at 9:30 p.m. against the tenth seeded Western Carolina Cata­ mounts at the Asheville Civic Center in Asheville, North Carolina. The winner of the four-day tourna­ ment will receive an automatic bid to participate in the 64 team field that makes up the NCAA post-season tour­ nament.

Sunday, the Lady Mountaineers •Oed in one of their most impressive °Tmances of the season, pounding '^tcm Carolina 108-74inCullowhee. ASU's 108 points was the second st total in school history, and the 64 second-half points set a new school record. Angela Crosby paced the Lady Moun­ taineers with 33 points. Regina Ikard added 20, Sheryl Lynch had 14, and KarolinaKarlqvist contributed 13 points and 12 assists. Head Coach Linda Robinson was particularly impressed with the play of Karlqvist. "I don't think they expected Karolina to have the kind of game she did," said Robinson, "but she played great for us and we really were pleased with her ef­ forts." ASU Assistant Coach Barbie Breedlove praised the accomplishments of her squad. Saturday was a different story for the Lady Mountaineers. Furman with four players in double figuresdefeated ASU 92-73. ASU was led yet again by Angela Crosby, who had 27 points and seven rebounds. The Paladins were led by guards Jen­ nifer Jones and Karen Stanley, who contributed 23 and 19 points, respec­ tively. The two shot a combined 8-13 from three-point range. Both the Furman guards performed well above their past performances. Furman's guards were free to take the three-pointers because ASU con­ centrated their defensive effort on Pala­ din inside players, who were thediffer­ ence in the last contest. Breedlove summed up the weekend. "We went to Western and pounded them on Sunday after they had beaten East Tennessee by almost the same margin. So all in all, it was a weird weekend in the Southern Conference." The weekend split pushes ASU's record to 10-15, 4-8 in the Southern Conference. Robinson noted that the team is fi­ nally starting to hit its stride late in the season. "I feel good about the team at this point, because we're justnow start­ ing to play to our potential." Robinson said one reason for the team's improved play was better play from the reserves, most notably Tonya Goins and Kim Pearce. "Al­ though these girls aren't putting up big numbers, they are helping us to win games." ASU will finish up the regular season schedule Wednesday night against nonconference opponent East Carolina at7:00 p.m. in Varsity Gym.They will then prepare for the Southern Confer­ ence Tournament March 11-13 in Johnson City. ^SU sluggers lose two road games Ross named all-conference player ^5 KISTOPHER FLOYD Writer a Mountaineer baseball team again tough weekend on the road, los- * ^inthrop and at UNC-Asheville.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK By PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor Jeff Williams took over as the start­ ing point guard 16 games ago. Since that time, he has developed not only into an effective floor general, but has established himself as a scorer and a defensive specialist On Saturday, Williams poured ca­ reer highs inboth scoring, with 21 points and rebounds with eight in a loss to ETSU. He has scored in double figures in 10of his last 13 games while averag­ ing 14.3 points over his last four con­ tests. "The way that the offense is run, a lot of guys are keying in on Billy Ross so someone has had to step up and score," Williams said. "Jeff has been making some very special contributionsof late," said ASU head coach Tom Apke. "He has be­ come a real leader in running the show and helping other players. He has been recognized as one of the best defensive guards in theSouthern Conference by a lot of different people." Williams is currently ranked as the team's third leading scorer with 9.9 points per game and is second on the team with 79 steals. He has also col­ lected twoor more rebounds and dished out 2 or more assists in his last 22 consecutive games. Williams graduated from Asheboro High School in Asheboro where he started as a small forward. Since com­ ing to Appalachian State, he has made the switch from forward to shooting guard and now, of course, is the team's starting point guard. That is a switch that is not normally made very easily, but Williams has adjusted effectively and handles the ball with brilliance. "Basically, a lot of guys have confi­ dence in me and me being patient with myself has made the transition easier. The coaches have aiso let me take my time to get comfortable," Wil­ liams said. With this season winding down, thoughts are already shifting to next year, when Williams will be called on to lead a team that will have an additional year of experience under its belt. "Nobody has a crystal ball," said Apke. "But with most of our talent returning, we would have to be consid­ ered a legitimate contender and will expect big things from Jeff as the quar­ terback of our team." Williams and the rest of the Apps will travel to Asheville to compete in the league toumey this weekend. "I think it is wide open," Williams said. "We have Western first and we have beat them twice. If we get a third chance at ETSU, I think we can take them." Editor's note .The Athlete of the Week is selected by a panel of sports staff at"The Appalachian." �The Appalachian Tuesday.

The Mountaineers continue to play tough opponents on the road. So far, they have played the top two teams in the Big South Conference and two of the top three teams in the ACC. The lengthy road swing will continue Tues­ day when the Mountaineers travel to Chapel Hill to play UNC.

The view is that no matter what led up to the moment of passion under which the crime was com­ mitted or what future transgressions that person may commit, the criminal must keep his/her life. Does this seem fair? Isn't this person put to death in another sense?

Amy Carver ASU Box 15730 Problem goes beyond vandalism Ignorance about homosexuality breeds fear To the Editor: To the Editor: «8i 1 S YOUR PARKING DE.CAL MAP OF THE STUDENT LOT A DAY'S RATION OF WATER '& START N0W-ITxLL BET Getting dark soon1 I am disturbed at the lack of concern among ASU administration regarding the recent vandalism on campus. It is unfortunate that the women of this campus feel they have to go to such covert lengths to make a point. It is a greater misfortune that the administration focuses on the vandalism rather than the feeling of desperation that has motivated it It is evident to me, and many others I'm sure, that these women were not simply on a mission to mutilate the campus, but to bring attention to a situation which has been neglected. Furthermore, the administration took exceedingly appalling measures to wipe away the painted pleas for help in an attempt to smother the women's movement and push a general awareness of sexism, harassment, and hostility towards women further into obscurity. Another disturbing factor is the thought that such extensive damage can be done without being detected by a single security officer. In the 3.5 hours that the campus was left unpatrolled, a dozen women could have been raped, assaulted or harassed in some fashion. Perhaps some of the money used to purchase campus security's shiny new cars and big scary guns could have been spent on organizing a more effective system for patrolling the campus. My point is simple; hear the messages these women were trying to This is a letter responding to the remarks and ideas made by Ms. Anne Earley in a letter published in the Feb. 16 edition of The Appalachian, "Gays do not belong in the armed forces." Ms. Earley seems to be strongly opposed to gays in the military, which is her right, but she also seems to be very ignorant about human rights. First of all, I don't believe that because you have family members that have served in the military makes you a scholar on homosexuality. If anything, from my experiences, it suggests that you were raised with that notorious military attitude that led to the current beliefs you display. Secondly, Ms. Earley, homosexual­ ity isn't as uncommon as you might like to think. Current studies indicate that 10 percent of all Americans are homosexuals, and the researchers admit that the actual number is probably higher. Ms. Earley, I would hardly say that 10 percent of a society represents a small fraction. It may seem like a small fraction because many homosexuals are forced into silence due to the homophobic attitudes of certain people. Finally, Ms. Earley proposed that if homosexuals were allowed in the military that separate barracks or at least separate showers would need to be built in order to protect the heterosexuals. This is the one statement that really displayed the level of ignorance many citizens Now to turn the subject around. Reverse the above scenarios to abortion and tempers flare. To sentence the living to death is one thing while the unborn's fate is another. Armies besiege clinics while television displays the pleasures white, upper-middle class fami­ lies experience from unexpected and ill-timed preg­ nancies. All to save a life which hasn't truly been created. Like the crash victim there is a body of organs pumping and functioning, yet all on a life support system of an organic design. There are no higher forms ofbrain activity; it can't react to stimuli. And to be taken from the womb results in its physical termi­ nation. As with the man on death row, the past and future need to be weighed heavily, for there may be dire circumstances either way. The pregnancy may be from a moment of loving passion or from one of violence. The future ahead may mirror that of the poor and homeless with a flimsy cardboard dwelling and a back alley wall for everyday shelter. Urban children, whether wanted or not, usually grow up in such surroundings where welfare and hand outs are the norm. Given the possible pain and constant suffer­ ing for the future, should termination before a life begins be as permissible as when it concerns the elderly? It is contended that a nut and a bolt joined together do not make a car nor do a sperm and egg constitute a life. Both only represent processes to construct a shell that will experience life. That's only true if you seelife as being more than a pulsating cardiac muscle sending fluid through miles of tubes to nurture organic cells. I personally subscribe to this view, along with the belief that other lives must be considered. It takes two to create a life, and it depends on the opinions and beliefs of that couple whether or not that fetus' devel­ opment will be allowed to continue into an offspring. It's the couple's right to base their decision on their beliefs and what is appropriate for them. They have to decide what life is. Then the couple must do what they feel is right for them. It is their U.S. right to decide. possess. Currently, as many who keep up with national news know, there is an Airman Apprentice who faces the death penalty for mutilating a fellow gay soldier in Japan. Ms. Earley referred to this in her letter. It scares me to think that this soldier claims to fight for my freedom. More recently, three soldiers in North Carolina have been arrested for attacking and beating a gay man from Wilmington. Again, tliese are the people who claim to fight to protect our rights as Americans. We have two highly visible incidents in which military men have brutally and viciously attacked gay men and Ms. Earley believes separate barracks are needed to ensure the heterosexual soldiers' safety? This blatant showing of ignorance illustrates the basic reason why I felt compelled to write this letter. Ms. Earley certainly has the right to believe and to say what her opinion is on gays in the military. She should feel responsible, however, to first educate herself on the topic she wishes to discuss. Ignorance breeds fear. Sincerely, Alan Sorrells ASU Box 10217 Homosexuals will make loyal soldiers To the Editor: In response to some of the recent comments on gays in the military, I have to express profound disappoint­ ment. I very strongly support President Clinton, our democratically-elected Commander-in-Chief on this issue. Gays who wish to join the military are not doing so to push a radical agenda. They are loyal, patriotic, Americans who are inspired to serve this country and, if it is asked of them, to die for this country. They will be required to meet all therequirements that straight people have to meet. They will be high school graduates, HIV negative, healthy and reasonably intelligent. They will be patriotic and dedicated to the national security of the United States. The only disruption that will occur from ending this purposeless ban will result from those in the military who are bigots and will not accept that different people can love their country. I have been friends with someone who is both gay and in the military (formerly ASU R.O.T.C.) and I have no qualms or fears as to his ability to play a role in the defense of this great country. He loves America and his boyfriend and is willing to put his life on the line, if neces.iry, to protect both. He will also protect me, my girlfriend, all our families, and even those who wish him nothing but ill. The arguments of Jack Daly do not express a real concern for National Security. They express prejudice thinly disguised as concern. Also, as a Christian, I am greatly distressed to see the Bible used to pro­ mote bigotry. Yes, the Bible does say that homosexuality is wrong. But if never having sinned in one's life is a requirement for military service, the Army would consist of exactly nobody. As far as condemning those who are gay, remember "Do not judge others, lest ye also will be judged," and "Love thy neighbor as thy self." Personally, I believe that would include our gay neighbors.

Staff members of financial aid, stu­ dent development and admissions, an SG A representative and a graduate stu­ dent make up thecommittee. This com­ mittee, along with Associate Registrar Don Rankins, are responsible for re­ searching and reviewing information about the Voice Response System. If this committee along with the univer­ sity decides to move forward with this proposal, the system will be imple­ mented and in use for the Fall 1993 semester. Rankins said he wants this system to be student-service oriented. With the system, a student will be able to acquire admissions information, financial aid information and account blances. The second function of the voice system is to allow a student to register for classesby telephone.Students would be assigned a specific day and time to call in to register for classes. The walk-in registration will remain in effect for students with special situ­ ations such as written permission by a professor to add a class, and for those students who prefer registering by the walk-in system. The length of walk-in registration will not be as long with the addition of phone registration, said Rankins. Rankins added that he does not want to take any options away from the stu­ dents.

Robbins was also asked about the future of the baseball field. He told SGA that the current plans were to close the field and turn that area into a park. The creek along Rivers Street would also be opened so that when it rains, parts of the park would be a natural "lake." Robbins said that a location for the new baseball field has not been chosen. Robbins also discussed the possibil­ ity of turning Rivers Street into a park­ way. The parkway would have a land­ scaped medium and bike paths for bik­ ers. Robbins said the goal was to make Rivers Street safer and that whatever changes were made would include "as many new ideas as possible."

David Chun, who served last year as chairman of the Undergraduate Assembly's budget and finance com­ mittee, detailed his allegations in an editorial column that appeared in The Weekly Pennsylvanian, a publication of The Daily Pennsylvanian. Chun called for greater safeguards on student government spending. "There were no major incentives not to make personal long-distance calls," Chun, a junior in political science and psychology, told the newspaper. "And there wereno immediate pressures from the veteran UA members to stop mak­ ing them. It was a general consensus that that was a perk of being on the UA." According toChun, the Undergraduate Assembly budgeted money tocover the personal telephone calls out of its $25,000operating budget, which comes partly from a $695 general fee that all students have to pay. The assembly controls a total budget of $650,000 that funds various student activities. "The phone bill every year is more than $700. I know that more than 50 percent of these calls were personal. I should know—I made some of them," Chun wrote. Student government officials also used leftover funds to buy an expensive leather couch for the office and to have the offices painted. In the editdrial column,Chun said he felt compelled to tell students where their money was going. He also called for greater safeguards on student gov­ ernment spending. "You see, the UA is like a kindergar­ ten kid. When provided with free cray­ ons and pencils—or in this case, more than half a million dollars—they will collectively find creative methods to abuse them," he wrote. �2—Ih£.—Appalachian Thursday.

The History department issponsoring a trip to New­ port, Rhode Island,called "Summer by the Sea," for just such an adventure. Twenty-five to thirty students will be picked to stay at Salve Regina University for five weeks of classes and activi­ ties. Various courses will be offered in many dif­ ferent areas. Sailing, taught on the Narragansett Bay; history and architecture of the area; and landscape painting, taught by Noyes Long, are among the many courses offered. Also taught here, in one of the original thirteen colonies, is nineteenth-century American literature, which is similar to learning about Shakespeare in En­ gland. Up to seven credit hours may be earned, and interships in almost every field can be taken advantage of.The faculty is contibuted to by the English, Art, P.E., and History departments. Classes make up only part of the Rhode Island experience. The campus is walking distance from both the Narragansett Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, though most who go on the trip bring bikes. John Bond takes students on biology walks around the island, and field trips are offered toSalem, Boston, Lowell, New Bedford, and Providence, Mass. Volleyball, jogging, and tennis are also available. In addition to being a great place for new experiences, it is also a great opportunity tomeet new people. There are one-week sessions for adults going on at the same time as the students' five-week session, though they live in different dorms and take different classes. Every Sunday, the students make a lobster dinner to welcome the incoming adults, and the two groups often participate in activities together.

Now, step into his laboratory in "The Vanishing," a new film starring Jeff Bridges, Keifer Sutherland and Nancy Travis. Don't be fooled by the film's trailer.

Jeff Bridges plays the role of Barney, a chemist and family man. He believes that the only way to understand the goodness within him is to explore the darkness. So Barney meticu­ lously prepares his experiment, an experiment that will change someone's life. Enter Jeff Harriman (Sutherland)—copywriter and aspiring novelist While vacationing in Washington, Harriman and his girlfriend Diane stop for gas. Re-enter Barney. You've undoubt­ edly seen the readers digest version of this scene in the film's ads. If not, you must know that Diane (Sandra Bullock) disappears. The next edit finds Harriman three years older. A former non-smoker, he is strung out on nico­ tine and caffeine and still searching for Diane. In his exhausted and hopeless condition hestumbles upon Rita, a role passionately played by Nancy Travis. Jeff gives up hissearch for Diane in light of his new-found love. His obsession, however, must be rekindled. Why? Because finding out what happened to Diane is what this story is all about! "Vanishing" is based on the book "The Golden Egg" by Tim Krabbe.

Character development extends only s far as the situation at hand. The exception, ho •>ever, is screenwriter Todd Graff's work on Barney. This character is calculating, warped, and realistic, and Bridges is masterful. If you like itches that are hard to scratch, you will probably enjoy "The Vanishing."

Chancellor Thomas gave a short and concise speech about some of the characteristics of a good leader. Spe­ cifically, he mentioned five character­ istics. He began his speech by con­ gratulating the leaders on the good work that they have done in the past year. Also, knowing what highly motivated self-starters our leaders are, he advised them to eat right and get adequate rest. Health is necessary to manage extra­ curricular activities as well. Five characteristics he attributed to good leadership are unselfishness, dedi­ cation to the organization, resistance to the worship of power, the ability to Tour music capitals ASU News Bureau Viennese waltzes and Hungarian rhapsodies come alive in July as Appalachian State University'sSchool of Music sponsors an 11-day tour of European musical capitals.

Appolcorps leaders needed By LISA LAUGHLIN Et Cetera Editor Applications are now being taken for Appol Corps leaders. Appol Corps lead­ ers welcome incoming freshmen dur­ ing the second phase of orientation, lead small groups tours, and make sure freshmen are where they should be.

At least 100 people are needed for Appol Corps. Training is required and you must be able to arrive two and a half days before freshmen move on campus. RA's are not able to apply since train­ ing will overlap. Anyone interested must have a 2.0 GPA or better.

Did you know that over half of your body's heat leaves through your head? listen and a sense of humor. "There are leaders in all shapes and sizes, but in every good leader there is an unselfless desire to lead," Thomas said. His ad­ vice on dedication and organization was for the leaders to rise above their personal desires, for them to subjugate themselves totheir organization's goals, even though they may not be congruent to their own. Chancellor Thomas even suggested a prayer for leaders who are confused over which goal they should pursue. The prayer reads: "Dear Lord, detach me from this chair, help me make deci­ sions good for the people I represent, not for what I represent." The third characteristic that he men­ tioned, resistance to worship of power, can be easily corrupted. Chancellor Tho­ mas said that in order to be a good leader, you must have the ability not to feel to power of your position. "With­ out this ability, absolute power corrupts absolutely," said Thomas. As seen in the news, many people who move into powerful positions fall in love with the feeling of power, and therefore it be­ comes abused. The ability to listen to your peers is also a very importantcharacteristic of a leader. Thomas stated that "the higher you go up in rank, the more people say 'yes' to your ideas. He said that a leader has to train his or her ear to listen to people who are not afraid to tell you 'no'." Thecharacteristic sense of humanity.

The upset-minded Lady Apps claimed the lead for most of the contest, before finding themselves down by one with :43 remaining. ASU's Angela Crosby was fouled and hit the one of two free throws to notch the score at 67 with 29 seconds left. Reynolds'game-winner came with just 15 seconds to play. The Lady Apps took a quick time out but could not come up with the magic play that would have completed the huge upset. Crosby finished with 22 points and 10 boards for the Lady Apps. She was followed by Beth Kilby with 18 and Regina Ikard who chipped in 13 points. Georgia Southern, who now stands at 8-2 in the Southern Conference, placed four players in double figures including Kim Brown who finished with 14, Tammy Dowdell with 12, Jan Cameron with 11, and Reynolds with I»ME T» Ml •« "I % ts 10.

The Lady Mountaineers fought back from a 14-point second half defi­ cit to take the lead on an 11-footer by senior Sheryl Lynch at the 5:39 mark. The Lady Moccasins staged a late rally to hold off the Lady Apps for the eight point victory. Crosby again led the Mountaineers with 17 points and 14 rebounds. Ikard again scored in double figures finishing with 13; Kilby chipped in 10. The Mountaineers shot a mere 38 percent for the game and were outrebounded by a 54-37 count The Lady Mountaineers turned the ball over 21 times compared to UTC's 12 turnovers. The Lady Moccasins were paced by Jill Dunn who finished with 15 points, Andrea Autrey with 14 points and 13 boards, and Janice Johnson whochipped in 13. UTC hit 50 percent of their threepoint attempts and accumulated 11 steals in the contest. The Lady Mocca­ sins arenow 13-10overall while Appa­ lachian is9-14, including 3-7 in the SC. The Lady Mountaineers will travel to Furman on Saturday for their next contest beforeheading toWestern Caro­ lina for the regular season finale on Feb. 28.

"Those guys are an absolutely great offensive team, maybe the best in the country," said Mortis of thevaunted Tiger squad. The totals were downright scary: 18 hits and three home runs combined with a freshman pitcher who held the Mountaineers hitless through five in­ nings. The Tigers jumped on ASU starter Chris Vullo (0-2) early, and did not relax their pressure, scoring in each frame but the first and seventh. ASU shortstop Ed Ewasko broke up the no hit bid by Jeff Sauve (1-0) with a sinking line drive to center to start the sixth. Two outs later, Johnny McCraw hit his second home run in three games for the Mountaineers only runs of the game. Morris described the game as "bi­ zarre," with several pop-ups to the out­ field being blown back into the infield and ending up doubles for Clemson. "There were some strange plays, but that's not why we lost," said Morris. "They just hit the ball well and when our pitchers got behind, we were in trouble." Right fielder John Bonner added two hits for the Mountaineers and freshman first baseman Kenny Osborne added one. Morris added that Osborne could have had even more hits. "Kenny was really crushing the ball, but he was hitting it right at them." The Mountaineers are now prepar­ ing for an extended road swing with visits to North Carolina A&T(doubleheader), Winthrop, and UNC-Asheville. "Most teams would dread a trip like this, but I think it will help us in the long run," said Morris.

Harder added eight assists and went 12-13 from the free-throw line to pace his team. The Mountaineers, who trailed for the entire game, closed an 18 point lead to 73-68 with a little over four minutes remaining in the contest. That was as close as the Apps would get, however, as Harder scored eight points to lead a 10-0 Furman run that would put the game out of reach. Furman sealed the victory down the stretch by hitting 14 of 15 free throw attempts. The Paladins were led in scoring by Harder's 29 and also got 17 points from Pat Marshall.

This entire situation is making a travesty of justice but not for the reasons you may think.

Policies of this nature for the following reasons: ive worked well for other schools; we should give it a try.

Yet in a society such as ours that cherishes the indi­ vidual andconcepts such as due process, if one student is denied adequate due process when attempting to address concerns over final grade assignment, this is one student too many.

Am I supposed to teach them that students do not have a right to due process and that they can be denied due process due to perceived discomforts caused by a due process appeals measure where students are allowed to appeal a final grade that was awarded capriciously and without justifica­ tion?

'V';) i'i'i'i'i'i'i'i'i'iwi'i'i'i Awareness of assaults urged To the Editor: A recent Tuesday morning there seemed to be quite a bit of talk in Sanford about apparent activities that had gone on the night before. I had to glean what I could from a variety of conversations going on around me. I sensed confusion as well as anger, amusement as well as disbelief. On my way to Sanford in the morning I had noticed some graffiti in front of the adminsitration building, then as I went to pick up my mail I noticed more graffiti in front of the student union, and in front of the post office. The message seemed clear—"women empower yosef'—and as I walked the message seemed to be in a variety of locations. When I entered Sanford is?.? there were men on their hands and knees scrubbing. A strange smell permeated the air, and the people milling around seemed very curious. I went up to a group of students and asked what had happened. A few of them told me that there had been some vandalism in Sanford the night before. One student told me that they were cleaning everywhere in Sanford and I assumed the damage must have �10 The Appalachian. Thursday. February 25. 1993 APPS FILMS PRESENTS: Letters Continued from page 9 been fairly extensive. As a woman 1 think about the fact that I am often afraid to walk alone on campus. Let's face it, the world is not always safe and women are often the target for very cruel actions. There seemed a frustration in that action of vandalism that was very real. I, as a woman, wondered what the person(s) were trying to get across with their messages. Thursday when I read The Appalachian I was amazed that there was nothing mentioned about the incident. I had expected there to be a piece describ­ ing the incident, or perhaps letters in response to the actions. Since The Appalachian is the newspaper that serves as the voice of the Appala­ chian community, it is the duty of The Appalachian to see that issues of disturbance are brought to the attention of the entire community. It seems that as an instrument of responsible journalism The Appala­ chian must strive to be at the forefront of creating awareness concerning issues on campus. I, as a woman and as a student, feel this is a grave issue that needs to be ad­ dressed. I wonder how a person or persons could enter the campus and vandalize so extensively, not only on the campus itself but inside a building. There seem to have been no responsible parties apprehended and I wonder how this can happen. Where was campus security while these activities were being carried out? I am sure we would all like to feel as though it were safe to walk around campus at night, but do we? This to me seems to be an issue not just of vandalism plain and simple, but also of safety. If such an event can occur on campus without detection, could not a woman be assaulted? I do not feel safe and I do not have faith in the systems that we have created to make ASU a safe environment. By the middle of the morning I noticed that most of the graffiti seemed to have disappeared. But there are still conversations lingering in the air, the message is clear. How many assualts need to take place before effective action is taken? the Democrats to stand up and admit their mistakes (the Congressional check scandal for one). There is no longer a Republican president to hide behind. MO* MONEY Jonathan Hayes Box 15917 Sarah Cohen ASU Box 12099 Democrats should admit mistakes To the Editor: I would like to commend Russell Meyer on his column in the Feb. 11 edition, 'The Republican Party is under attack." For the first time I can recall, there has been a commentary that has been both informative and truthful, and without the liberal slant that has become so common with the paper. It seems that in order to receive positive press a person has to be "Politically Correct." Republicans have been the object of most newspa­ pers' attacks for years, and yes, they have made their fair share of mis­ takes. But let's not forget that the Democrats controlled Congress during this time as well. It is time for Thurs. Fteb.25 Waterbury's art recovered To the Editor: I am writing to update you concerning the outdoor sculpture installation by Jonathan Water bury. On Friday, Feb. 12, a student phoned the Art Department with information concerning one of the stolen elements from this piece. The call was forwarded to my office and I was informed that the missing work was in the bushes near Belk Residence Hall. I retrieved the object and notified the artist I am most grateful, as is the artist, for your efforts on behalf of the gallery in retrieving the missing sculpture. 7 & 9:30 p.m. SI Starring: Damon and Marlon Wayans, Mo Howard, Mo Bandy, and Mo Bettahblues!

AIRNESS. ACCURACY AND PUBLIC mm Traditions documented By MANYA A BRACHEAR Staff Writer Appalachian file photo PLEASURES: One of the attractive qualities of Boone is the mountain environment Students and tourists alike flock to Boone for the majestic view. The University Traditions Task Force started its trip down memory lane this semester. As part of the Student Government Association's goal to boost student pride, the task force will document uni­ versity traditions dating back to the beginning of the college and share the results with future Apalachian fresh­ men as well as upperclassmen. The committee's goal this year is to produce a tangible publication to dis­ tribute to every student in which they can find stories and traditions about Appalachian. "For example, we want to present a day in the life of a student in 1930," said SGA Senator Dave Cox. "We want to get a sense of pride and tradition in this school that is not present." Among the task force's longterm goals is to implement their discoveries into freshmen orientations and fresh­ men seminar courses. SGA Academic Affairs Chairman Tom Beaman said he also hopes tomake Phase II Orientation for freshmen a little more interesting. Further implementations include pro­ grams through residence life and work­ ing with Appalachian Ambassadors to include university traditions as part of their tours. "Students should take immense pride in the university they 're attending. Fac­ ulty should take immense pride in the university at which they're teaching," said Beaman."Appalachian's traditions help strengthen the Appalachian com­ munity while instilling that neededsense of pride." Eight faculty and student members make up the task force committee. They are Beaman, Cox, The Appalachian Managing Editor Canda Smith, SGA Senator Stacy Iler, ASU Ambassador Kelly Burton, Hank Weaver of Univer­ sity Police, Dr. Jim Jackson of the De­ partment of Leadership and Higher Education and Executive Assistant to the Chancellor Bob Snead. Each member was selected on the basis of his or her involvement in preSee TRADITIONS page 3 ppalachian influenza epidemic exaggerated, say officials of class cancellations at Appalachian and other VNC universities proved wrong as ASU health services reported 252 flu cases. A BRACHEAR Writer that influenza infected 40 t of the Appalachian campus ation and possible cancellation of proved to be wrong as students up classes Friday afternoon, week ago Monday, ASU Health reported 242 cases of the flu in office. Director of Health Services illiam Derrick Jr. reported to the State Board of Health Friday that the number had decreased to 151 and that the outbreak was subsiding. Dr. Greg Blimling, vice chancellor of student development, said he and Derrick were closely monitoring the situation. Blimling saw no warrant to cancel classes with only 242 out of 11,500 students sick. Contrary to popular rumors, the uni­ versity does not have a policy stating classes will be cancelled if 45 percent of the student population reports to health services. If a dangerous situation was to arise that would call for class cancellation, Derrick would advise Blimling, and the decision would be made by either Chancellor John Tho­ mas or Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs Dr. Harvey Durham. According to Edith Fuller, director of nursing in the infirmary, cancelling classes would not prevent the spread of disease on a college campus as well as it would in a high school or elementary school setting where parents are re- sponsible for keeping their children at home. "The flu did hit Appalachian hard this year with an estimated IS percent of the campus contaminated," said Der­ rick. The figure includes those students who chose to doctor themselves instead of seeking aid from health services. Compared toother area colleges, Ap­ palachian was hit more severely with the flu epidemic. Director of Nursing at North Carolina State University said that only a few positive Type A and Type B cultures were diagnosed A representative for Western Carolina Health Services said the most they had seen in oneday was 170 cases. Despite rumors, their classes were not cancelled either. "Our classes were not cancelled and I haven't heard any rumors about a flu epidemic cancelling classes," said UNC-Chapel Hill sophomore Liz Gibson. Another rumor claimed that a rare and fatal complex of the flu, Type A, was circulating the campus. "Type A is far from fatal," said Derrick. The pathogen usually affects the respira­ tory system with a slight possibility of complications evolving into pneumo­ nia. Fever, aching, cough, runny noseand sore throat characterize Type A flu. Type B usually affects the gastrointes­ tinal tract causing nausea and fatigue. Both cases last 24 hours to 72 hours, during which Derrick suggested plenty of liquids, Tylenol and a lot of rest. Non-residents choose ASU By SUZILANDIS News Editor Slightly over 10 percent of Appala­ chian undergraduates are out-of-state residents. What attracts students to a small mountain town thousandsof miles from home at almost twice the cost of in-state tuition? Appalachian has a positive academic reputation, a friendly atmosphere and an attractive environment, said Direc­ tor of Admissions Joe Watts. "We hear those things over and over again,"said Watts. Georgia and Florida are ASU's pri­ mary feeder states, meaning a majority of out-of-state students come from those areas said Watts. For Fall 1992, how­ ever South Carolina ousted Georgia from' the top of the list with 207 resi­ dents enrolled compared to the 169 Georgians. Florida numbered 256 stu­ dents. According to the Appalachian Fact Book for the 1991-92 academic year, Appalachian students came from allover the UnitedStates along with 65 students from foreign countries. This year, the admissions office has received the larg­ est pool of out-of-state applications, making up 25 percent of the freshmen applications for next year. A statewide policy limits out-of-state1 enrollment to 18 percent of the Fresh­ men class, said Watts.The rule, though, ECONOMIC IMPACT: Appalachian students act as an economic resource for the Boone community.

CHANGES OF SEASON: Out-of-state students cite the changes of season as a primary decision in choosing to attend Appalachian. Floridians, especially areuirJ to the Boone climate. tn Alumnus Robinette serves university By JASON BALDWIN Staff Writer Editor's note:The Appalachian wanted to uncover why ASU alumni come back to serve the college and the Boone community .FredRctmette's personal story help&Hottfimer tKafqi&stioh. Fred T. Robinette's love for Appala­ chian State University is as gracious as the sunrise over a mountain captured in a photograph behind his desk. His plaques for significant contribu­ tion to Appalachian, appreciation from the Yosef Club and recognition as a member of the President's Committee hanging beside his desk express Robinette's commitment to ASU. Even the Appalachian pillow that sits under his computer desk and the cross-stitched Mountaineer that sits on top of it symbolize Robinette's affection. Twenty-three years of service as Director of Development for Walker College of Business and ASU alumni shows Fred Robinette's com­ mitment to ASU. Robinette oversees all fund raising activities in the College of Business, concentrating on major gifts from busi­ nesses, business leaders, corporations and foundations. "People don't realize that there is as good a quality of student here as you can find anywhere in the state of North Carolina," said Robinette. Walker Col­ lege of Business is the second most applied to business college after Chapel Hill, added Robinette. Robinette came to Boone in 1962 to earn a bachelor of science in elemen­ tary education. He taught for threeyears, became principal of an elementary school near Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, and later held a princi­ pal position in Morganton; but Robinette soon came back to Boone. "The people are warm, friendly and care about one another and their com­ munity. They care about what they do. Mountain people are proud people," said Robinette. He went on to explain that Boone's location allows its resi­ dents to "live in a garden spot of the world." "The only thing I'm concerned about is Boone's growth," said Robinette. He smiled as he explained that he was afraid that too many people would find the solace that Boone residents and Appalachian students have found. "One of the greatest things to happen to Ap­ palachian was choosing to locate in Boone," added Robinette. Robinette has always wanted to work for his Alma Mater. Four years after graduating from ASU, Robinette re­ turned to continue his education. In July 1971, Robinette took the po­ sition of Director of Alumni Affairs. During his 10-year reign as Alumni Affairs Director, Robinette started such organizations as the Yosef Club, the Alumni Rally Program and the Class Reunion Program. But it is the ASU Ambassadors program that Robinette is most proud of starting. "Of all of the groups that could liter­ ally touch thousands of lives, who could be better to show prospective students and faculty around the campus? The students are the university aind when you go across campus, the students are going to let you know what it's ail about," said Robinette. Robinette said very passionately," I love what I do. It is unusual to find anyone to stay in development for 23 years when the life span of this job is usually five to six. I'm a bit of an unusual character in that respect." Unusual perhaps, but Robinette does his job with enthusiasm and joy. Smil­ ing he said, "We are involved in a first time fund raising campaign for ASU. Our goal is to raise $21 million for faculty, students and program projects. Eighty-five percent of that goal has been reached and we are going to ex­ ceed it, no doubt about it." "Appalachian's greatest future lies ahead of it," Robinette added. "It is a more respected institution. Our name and reputation is more renowned than it was 26 years ago. It has grown up to be one of the most respected institutions in all of the Southeast. I have been very fortunate in my life to have worked for, beside and with many outstanding co­ workers here whose goal and mission has been just like mine- to make Appa­ lachian the best it can be."

The Boone Fire Department re­ sponded to a fire alarm in Doughton at 12:23 a.m. Friday morning said University Police Captain Larry Fos­ ter. After checking the building, fire­ men discovered the sixteen residents still inside Doughton. The fire started from a newspaper that was set on fire in the second floor lobby. The investigation is pending said Foster. A microscope valued at $743 was reported missing from Room 266 Rankin Science Building Friday.

I've been able to recall more vivid snories of my undergraduate days." Over the years, Snead has observed a dramatic change in student lifestyle, rules and regulations. He can remem­ ber when freshmen women had 7:45 p.m. curfews. Only if they made a "C" average or above during first quarter (ASU operated on a quarter system then) could they have a later curfew of 9:15 p.m. The curfew gave plenty of time to walk back from the 7 p.m. flick in Boone's only movie theater. Parking was not a problem during the 1950s. Students were not allowed to have cars on campus. Kraut Creek, lo­ cated where the College of Business now stands, was a demarcation line over which girls could not cross with­ out stiff penalty. 'Dr. Dougherty was a bachelor and very conservative in how he thought children should be raised,"Snead said. Although the school was always a state institution with no religious affili­ ation, students attended chapel every­ day at 10:10 a.m. where attendance was taken. ASU enrolled more conserva­ tive Baptists than any other institution in the state including Wake Forest Uni­ versity.

Watts believes that ASU's academic reputation, small classes and access to faculty, and competitive costs along with ASU's various recognitions at­ tract out-of-state students. "Appalachian has a friendly and per­ sonal campus," said Floridian senior Ashley Mitchell. "I enjoy the change of seasons and the beautiful mountains. Being from Florida, I love the cool climate and the gorgeous scenery." "I hate Florida. I use to live out West near the Rockies, so I came here be­ cause of the mountains," said senior Ann Schyck.

February 23.1993 Gray travels, but considers Boone home By CHRISTY LOHR Staff Writer My first encounter with Dr. Richard Gray was one evening last year. I attended a SAVE program he led that compared the atmospheres of neighboring planets to our own. As I sat in a darkened room of theStudent Unionand watched a slide show of Venus and Mars I thought about how this man reminded me so much of Carl Sagan. Although Appalachian's physics and as­ tronomy professor, Gray, may not be as big of a celebrity as Carl Sagan, he certainly has made several notable accomplishments throughout his career. Gray obtained his masters from the University of Toronto. From there he went to Africa where he taught math and physics at the Cameroon College of Arts, Science, and Tech­ nology in Cameroon. While in Africa, he lived in the moderately remote mountain village of Bambili. This was a traditional African village where he could observe the people's ancestral prac­ tices. Gray feels that this was the ideal way for him to experience the continent of Africa. He admits that as a simple tourist one does not get an opportunity to become personal with the people who have so much to offer and who are so accepting of people with a desire tocontribute to their society. He remained in Africa for seven years. When his work there was complete in 1982, he re­ turned to Canada and the University of Toronto. He was granted two fellowships for work at the GRAY CONSIDERS BOONE HOME: Dr. Richard Gray has taught in Africa, Canada and Denmark but likes the small town atmosphere of Boone. See GRAY page 6 He also enjoys the intellectual stimulus the university offers the town. ASU students who grew up in Boone comment By KRISTINE FORREST Staff Writer FRIENDS AT ASU: Close friendships in high school are difficult to maintain when people go in different directions. However, somepeople do keep in touch, and it is easier when friends are close by. To many of us, the town of Boone is an area in which we will spend only a short period of our lives. We come here to attend school, meet people, and enjoy the benefits of the natural scenery. Some students, however, have spent most or all of their lives in Watauga County. They spent time on the campus as children and grew up in the natural Appalachian environment. Meredith Byerly, Christine Clinebell and Dwaine Cook are all Appalachian juniors who grew up in this area. They remember having their high school prom at Legends, having soc­ cer and football games at Appalchian's stadium and graduating from Watauga in Appalachian's gym. "Our lives were always connected with the university," said Clinebell. "We always used the facilities." Native Wataugans are resentful when people from other areas come here and "act like they own the town."Students are sometimes deroga­ tory to the area that the people who live here love and appreciate. Cook also believes that people from Boone are stereotyped as "backwards hill­ billies." There are many advantages that students have if they both live and go to school here. They get home-cooked meals, free laundry, are familiar with the back roads and know many of the professors. According to Byerly, they also"know where all the good parking places are." Despite all theadvantages, people from Boone often regret having few places togo to get away from the town. They aren't able to go home to other areas like other students from out of town. "I can get tired of it since I've been here all my life," Cook said. Byerly, Clinebell and Cook all agreed that if they were back in high school and had to make the decision over again, they probably would not choose Appalachian to go to school. Although attending college in their home town is eco­ nomical, they would prefer colleges out of the area. The students also agree that they probably^ won't stay in Boone once they graduate from college. "It's a good town to grow up in," Cock said. "You can go camping and feel safe. But twenty years is long enough to be here!" Byerly agrees that Boone was a great place to live as a child, but she says, "I don't ever see myself moving back here." One aspect of Boone that many of us are beginning to realize is that the town has a ten­ dency to grow on you. It has a charm and uniqueness that appeals to visitors, students and people who have lived here all of their lives. 'The older I get, the more I appreciate Boone," Clinebell said. Many of us cherish our high school memories, yet those who grew up in Boone can brag about their experiences in the Appalachian mountains. Few people can claim that they skipped school to go hiking at Grandfather Mountain or spent their Spring Break canoeing down a local river. "Most of my best memories have to do with nature," Cock said. ^oone. like that old saying goes, "you don't j _ ^"hat you've got until it's gone."

Would you continue on your way, or trace your steps backward to eliminate any chance of bad luck? Do you believe that if a groundhog sees its shadow there will be six more weeks of winter? Did your mother or grandmother pass along quilting skills and techniques, or a quilt itself to you? These are allexamples of folklore, things with which most are familiar. Folklore plays a major part in the lives of native Appalachians. "It is difficult to simply define folklore be­ cause there are so many variables," said native North Carolinian Donald Davis, traditional sto­ ryteller and author of "Jack Always Seeks His Fortune: Authentic Appalachian Jack Tales." "It is what you learn apart from 'formal' educa­ tion in school, passed on from generation to generation. It is oral tradition, made up of many different things like language, social customs, legends and stories, popular beliefs and super­ stitions." On and around the campus of ASU, folklore continues to thrive. According to Rogers Whitener, former educator in ASU's English Department, director of Cultural Affairs, and writer of the newspaper column "Folkways and Folk Speech," Folklore has existed longer here largely because of its oral nature. The moun­ tains were isolated from the rest of the state, from the rest of the United States, for so long.

February 23. 1993 Feghali admires beauty of ASU Gray Continued from page 5 By JESSICA SCHRIDER Staff Writer For some professors, Boone has turned out to be the ideal place to both teach and raise a family. Take Dr. Maksoud Feghali, for instance. He has been a French professor at Appalachian for over four years and is thrilled with both the university and the town. He was lucky enough to have his interview for his present position on a beautiful, sunny, fall day in 1988. Feghali was impressed on his ride in from Hickory with the changing colors of the leaves. "It was like a beautiful painting in the high country," he re­ called. Feghali was further impressed by the beauty of the campus, the warmth of the administration and the quality of the students. "I knew that if I taught here, the students would give me their best shot," he said. Before he taught here, Feghali was a professor of Arabic language and cul­ ture as well as a faculty trainer at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California. While there, he taught some of the soldiers that fought in Desert Storm. However, he felt the environment was too structured forhim. " I was seeking academic freedom to leach in my field. I was willing to trade my job security as a tenure professor at DLI to take the job here," he said. Feghali felt that Boone was an excel­ lent place to raise a family. With three sons that are 4,6 and 7, where to bring them up was a very important consider­ ation. He and his wife, who is a lecturer in the math department, both felt that this was an good moral environment to raise their children in. Feghali enjoys what he feels is the uniqueness of the Appalachian com­ munity. "This is one of the few univer­ sities where students and teachers live in the same community in harmony.

"A major ingredient in folklore is haunted, both of which are examples of the recalling and retelling of mountain folklore. stories where people gather together, "Through the work of the Appala­ whittling and spitting, at places like the chian Consortium and educators at drugstore or the gas station."

"[These tales] are a at ASU, mountain lore is waiting to be carryover from the tales of witchcraft told, heard, and told again. IF YOU DRINK DON'T DRILL * •or operate any other dangerous machinery while under the influence We are all dedicated to quality educa­ tion," he said. Feghali was bom in Lebanon and did his primary and secondary schooling there. He lived in France for several years before coming totheUnited States. He did his undergraduate work in French and premed at Cleveland State in Ohio. He received his master' s degree and his Ph.D. in French Literature and Arabic Linguistics from Wayne State Univer­ sity, also in Ohio. He speaks French, Arabic and English fluently, and has a working knowledge of Spanish. He also reads Latin and Aramaic. Boone reminds Feghali of his home. "Boone is very much like the moun­ tains of Lebanon. People care about each other, and it snows a lot," he said. Feghali loves it here. He feels a large amount of job gratification at ASU. "I have the opportunity to grow intellec­ tually in a nice academic environment. The salary is not the best, but the grati­ fication from the students is worth it." WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CALLED YOUR MOTHER? University of Copenhagen, and in Den­ mark he worked for a few years at the Copenhagen University Observatory. It was here that Gray began to make a name for himself in the world of as­ tronomy. From Denmark he returned to North America where he worked in Washington State for one year. In 1989, he was interviewed for a position in thedepart­ ment of physics and astronomy here at Appalachian. He says that he was immediately impressed with the har­ mony and cohesion that existed among the faculty of the physics and astronomy department. He knew that he would work well in that atmosphere. Also, he was informed of the university's plans to purchase and install a new thirty-two inch telescope. This is to be placed in the nearby Dark Sky Obser­ vatory. Gray's accomplishments do not end here in Boone. This past summer, he was invited to attend an astronomical conference in Trieste, Italy. His trip was funded in part by the Vatican. Gray humbly attributes this tohis friend and colleague, Chris Corbally, a Jesuit priest working with the Vatican Observation Research Group in Toucson, Arizona. Gray's few years at Appalachian have been an asset to more than just the people dwelling in the depths of Rankin Science building. When he first came to the school, he immediately became involved in the organization SAVE (Students Actively Volunteering for the Environment). He recalls his first experience with the group: being an eager environmentalist, he went to a meeting and by the end of the night was adopted as the group's new faculty adviser.

The High Country area is unique as it offers several skiing opportunities that are unavailable elsewhere in North Carolina. Appalachian Ski Mountain, located between Boone and Blowing Rock, was the first ski resort in the area.Opened in 1963, Appalachian is the home of the French-Swiss Ski College. Under the direction of Jim Cottrell, the college operates ski lessons forcommunity us­ ers as well as students from Appala­ chian State University who choose to enroll in skiing for spring semesters. Currently, Appalachian has a 58-inch base with eight slopes open including three advanced, three intermediate and two beginner. "The only bare spots you'll find are in the woods. The moun­ tain looks exactly the way it should this time of year. This is the peak of the season—lots of snow, great skiing," Assistant General Manager Brad Moretz said. Lift ticket prices for adults are $18 on weekdays and $13 on weeknights. On the weekend, a day lift ticket runs $27 while a night lift ticket is $14. Rentals range from $6-$10 depending on the session one is skiing. Ski Hawksnest, closed last season, reopened this season and has been serv­ ing the area for 12 years. Hawksnest also currently reports a 58-inch base with seven slopes open. Two advanced, three intermediate and two beginner slopes are available at Ski Hawksnest. "It doesn't get any better than this. We have the best conditions and the most snow we've had all season, and with these beautiful sunny days and cold nights, we've had hundreds of hours of snowmaking—a tremendous recovery since warm, rainy weather temporarily closed us down a month ago," General Manager Tom Gidley said. Operations at all of the area facilities are upbeat now, but rain and unseasonably warm weather forced them all to close for nearly one week in early January. Adult lift tickets at Ski Hawksnest are $18 on weekdays and $12 on weeknights. Weekend tickets for lifts are $28 on Saturday days, $25 on Sunday days, $15 on Friday and Saturday nights and $12 on Sunday nights. Rentals are $10 every season, excluding Saturdays when they are $12. Hawksnest offers a spe­ cial night session, Nighthawk, on Sat­ urday nights from 11 p.m. - 4 a.m. Nighthawk lift tickets are $16. Every Tuesday night at the resort is "Locals Night" for Watagua, Avery and Ashe county residents. Lift tickets are $10 on this night. Sunday through Thursday nights at Hawksnest, students with valid identification ski for only $8. Ski Hawksnest is located in Seven Devils, between Boone and Banner Elk. Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, located in Banner Elk, has been in operation for approximately 24 years. Offering a 2050-inch base, Sugar Mountain has fif­ teen slopes in operation including one advanced, eight intermediate and six beginner. "We have the most terrain open we've had all season," Marketing Director Andrew Corpening said Day lift tickets at Sugar Mountain are $25 and $35 for weekdays and week­ end days, respectively. Sunday through Thursday night lift passes are $14 while Friday and Saturday night lift passes are $18. Rentals are $8 at night, $12 on weekdays and $14 on weekend days. Ski Beech, located in Beech Moun­ tain, currently offers a 25- 50-inch base with fourteen slopes open. These slopes include four advanced, seven interme­ diate and three beginner. "The skiing is ungodly great out there, packed powder surface, tons of snow. The mountain is buried," said Marketing Director Sheila Fletcher. Ski Beech lift ticket prices are $25 for weekdays, $20 for half-day weekdays, $25 for twilight and $13 for weeknights. Weekend day lift tickets are $33, twilight tickets are $28 and night tickets are $18. Rentals at Ski Beech range from $10 to $20 depend­ ing on the session. All of the High Country's ski slopes close in mid-March.

Appalachian indoor track squads compete at league championships Melissa Morrison leads Lady Apps to sixth straight title By LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor Senior Melissa Morrison captured four events as the Lady Mountaineer indoor track squad soared to their sixth straight Southern Conference Indoor Track and Field Championship this past J weekend at Virginia Military Institute 1in Lexington, VA. I Appalachian State accumulated 154 I points to second place Western Carolina's 91. Furman finished third with 64 followed by East Tennessee State with 46. UT-Chattanooga was fifth with 41, Marshall was sixth with 37 and Davidson finished last with 1. Morrison, named women's outstand­ ing performer, led the Lady Apps win­ ning the 55-meters, 200-meters, 55meterhurdles and triplejump. Morrison clocked 6.98, 25.69 and 8.09 in the ntnning events and set a new league moord in the triple jump with a mark of 40-11.5. The former record was 40-11.25. Morrison also finished sec­ ond in the long jump with a mark of 1910.75. "We were very happy to have won another title," ASU Head Coach John Weaver said. "No" matter what type of regular season we have, our girls al­ ways seem to rise to the occasion and they are prepared to give it everything they have got." The only other first place finish for Appalachian State came from the mile relay team with a pace of 4:06.51. Members of the relay included Tonie Lazenby, Beth Burleson, Jessica Parkan and Katrina Lee. Lee also set the pace for the Lady Apps in two other events where she finished second. Lee clocked 7.21 in the 55-meters and 25.83 in the 200meters. Lazenby finished second in the 400 meters with a time of 1:00.51. Sheree Robbins earned the Lady Apps only other second place finish with a time of 8.52 in the 55 meter hurdles. Third place finishers for ASU in­ cluded Precious Quire, Cynthia Minor, Carrie Hogg and Charlotte Redden. Quire finished 38-4.5 in the triple jump and alsoplaced sixth in the long jump at 17-8.75 while Minor finished at 5-4 in the high jump. Minor also finished sixth Florida State beats ASU DARIN GANTT St*ff Writer Appalachian State's baseball team ^Pped apair of games on the road last Week to tenth-ranked Florida State.

A double, followed 'id pitch, an infield hit, an error, ,Sacrifi tee and a steal of home was all rense the Seminoles could muster in the third. FSU added another run in the eighth to extend their lead to 3-0. John Bonner broke up the shutout attempt by sewing from third on a wild pitch by FSU reliever Phil Olson. The Mountaineers could not add to their score, losing 3-1. Morris was philosophical about the setback after the game. "It'sdiscourag­ ing to lose the way we did, but we were playing one of the top programs in the nation, and to play them as close as we did gives us some hope. They have an advantage over us due to their weather, which enables them to get mwe quality practice time in." Morris also cited the exceptional quality of Florida State's pitching. "These guys (FSU) have the deepest, most talented pitching we've seen in quite a while, and I hope we don't see any better." Morris was particularly impressed with their staff's ability to throw their breaking balls consistently for strikes this early in the season. "Our guys have only been hitting batting practice fastballs (due to practice in the gym) and their pitching threw us off balance." This was confirmed by the perfor­ mance of FSU freshman pitcher Jonathan Johnson. In his first collegiate start, Johnson struck out 10 and al­ lowed only two hits in seven innings. Morris also added that 14 of FSU's 18 newcomers were selected in the major league amateur draft. in the triple jump at 34-10.5. Hogg clocked 5:12 in the mile and also fin­ ished fifth in the800-meters with a time of 2:24.84 while Redden set a pace of 8.59 in the 55-meter hurdles. All competitors who finished in the top three in an event were named allconference. "Everyone did as good as we ex­ pected for them to and this was quite pleasing," Weaver said. Other strong performances for the Lady Apps came from Alice Vinson, Nicole Disher, Beth Burleson and Sherri Miller. Vinson finished fourth in both the 55-meters at 7.21 and the triple jump at 38-4, while Disher finished fourth in the 5000-meters with a time of 18:18.13 and fifth in the 3000-meters at 10:38. Burleson was fifth in the 55meter hurdles at 8.75 and sixth in the high jump with a mark of 5-2. Miller finished fifth in the shot put with a heave of 38-4. Julie Cooper, Dawn Wehrenburg, Angel Miklovic and Parkan also did well for ASU. Cooper placed sixth in See TRACK page 10 Leander Watts captures lone first place as men finish third Second place finishers for Appala­ chian State included Alan Whicker and Dennis Gutknecht.

The Mountaineers finish the year with an 11-4 record. "This night was for our seniors," ASU Head Coach Paul Mance said. "We moved some guys up in weight class to try to make this a big match for them. This was their final home match, and we wanted to give them one last chance to compete here." Six Appalachian seniors recorded vic­ tories in the match. Campbell wasforced to forfeit three matches, aiding the Mountaineers to victory. Seniors Donnell Rawls, Scott Beauchamp, Victor Balmeceda, Bill Baker, Corey Creech and Melvin Crosby secured wins for ASU. Rawls, wrestling at 134, defeated Bryan Miller on a technical fall while Beauchamp pinnedJeff Cody in3:51 at the 142-pound weightclass. Balmeceda won in the 150-pound weight class with a 13-8 decision over Rob Richards and Baker pinned Dan O'Cone in 1:06 at the 158-pound weight class. Creech defeated Dave Grieve, 8-7, in the 167pound weight class and Crosby, wres­ tling at heavyweight, took down Dan Osboume, 8-1. Mountaineer wrestlers Todd Miller (126), Shomari Rozier (177) and Seth Meyerson (190) won by forfeit. "I was glad to win the last match at home," Mance said. "They gave us some good battles, but just lost all of them. All of the close matches just seemed to go our way. The kids did a really good job." Rawls, ranked fourth by Amateur Wrestling News at 126-pounds, ran his overall Division I record to 58-4 with the win over Miller. Rawls is 25-2 this season.

"We are trying to get ready for the tournament. We should win it, but we must be physically and mentally pre­ pared," Mance said. "Our biggest chal­ lenge will come from UT-Chattanooga.

This ma­ terial was created by Adbusters Quarterly, a pub­ lication billed as "the journal of the mental environ­ ment." Their piece, entitled "Absolute Nonsense" depicted the oft-parodied bottle of Absolut Vodka, and copy that read "Any suggestion that our advertis­ ing campaign has contributed to alcoholism, drunk driving, or wife beating is absolute nonsense. No one ile most Boone residents like the town, putting feelings into words pays any attention to advertising." Adbusters cam­ ps many people. Most would agree there is something special about paign to "take back our mental environment," no ,e, but not everyone likes Boone for the same reasons.

Yes, Absolut does manufacture an alco­ holic beverage, and yes, individuals sometimes drive drunk and batter their wives while they are inebriated, but Absolut holds no monopoly on the production of alcohol. Any blame mistakenly placed on alcohol manufacturing companies must at least be placed "Basically Boone has a small town atmosphere Uiat e. oone is a q ]iy Adbusters attacks a producer well known for "/jjful area with neat people — all the same old things most people like it —Bob Mowery, owner of Our Daily Bread D e guess because in 15 minutes you can be on the top of a mountain, hiking " the woods, or knee-deep in the Watauga River fly fishing.

YandaUsm highlights shortcomings Perfect place. 56: - LL Appalachian Cartoon by Jaishree Hart Absolut's advice to consume their product "as a reward and in moderation," surely Absolut cannot be held responsible for the actions of the consumer; and, even more surely, Absolut cannot be held responsible for the drunken actions of all consumers of alcohol as Adbusters seems to suggest in "Absolut Nonsense." So what was theintent of Adbusters campaign? Do they seek to abolish alcohol advertising? Surely, they can't expect that the prohibition of beer commercials or Absolut ads will cause the liquor cabinets and the pocket flasks of America to run dry. Americans drink because they like the taste, or because it is the socially correct action, or because they enjoy the numbness of inebriation; not because of slick ads or bikini-laden television spots. Americans develop an addiction to alcohol because of its nature as an intoxicant, not because of what they read or watch. Prohibition of advertising for these products falls near book-ban­ ning and warning labels on record albums on the censorship scale. Is it their aim to abolish alcohol again? The eighteenth amendment to the Constitution of the . United States was repealed in 1933 because Prohibi­ tion simply did not prohibit anything. It did not work then, and cannot work now. Certainly Adbusterscan't be suggesting alcohol is the root of all our societal problems, but honestly, their campaign reeks of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, and seeks to protect American consumers from themselves and from the decisions they make. Certainly, we need to "take back our mental envi­ ronment," but abridging free speech in alcohol adver­ tisements because alcohol is a secondary or tertiary cause of many terrible societal maladies is not the winning battle plan. We will take it back when parents are strong enough to teach their children about the manufacturer of a handgun for the suicide of its value of moderation and reasonability. We will take it owner. Obviously, the intent of Absolut Vodka is not back when individuals are strong enough to drink to promote drunk driving, wife beating or alcoholism without being drunks. We will take it back when our through their advertising. It is, as it would be for any society progresses past the covert desire for addiction, other product, tomake Absolut Vodka more attractive but we were given the freedom of speech, and that can to the consumer. If the individual does not heed never be taken back. " v»u - voil n * T3V9 -vari I larll y^rlotert' < •t i e. t, "NT S| ..MM. ... ... M. ~ ..MM .MMI . • gjjji I We would like to make it clear that we do not condone or participate in illegal activities. However we recognize that these acts were symptomatic of a larger problem. We feel it is our responsibility as women to expose problems with existing sexual harassment policies here at ASU. The following four shortcom­ ings require immediate attention on the behalf of students, faculty and the administration: 1) It is obvious to us that the person(s) responsible for vandalizing the campus were acting out a sense of frustration. Many women on campus feel that sexual harassers do not receive appropriate punishment when con­ victed. In order for women to utilize the appropriate procedures for reporting sexual harassment, they must have faith that the system will work for their protection. These desperate acts represent a failure on all of our behalves to respond to the needs of women on campus. 2) Due to the widespread incidents of vandalism, these person(s) apparently remained on campus, undetected for some time. Perhaps long enough to have raped, beaten, or otherwise assaulted numerous women. We are deeply concerned with the apparent lack of security on our campus. 3) Clean up on behalf of the adminis­ tration was however, an amazing feat. By 9:00 a.m., what seemed to be the entire Physical Plant staff was busy at work with their steel wool and sane, quickly removing any trace of the vandalism. If such an effort was applied to on-campus security, the problem, not just the symptoms, may have been addressed. 4) As an issue that concerns all students we are appalled at the lack of responsible journalism on the part of The Appalachian. At a time when plans for a new bike rack make front page headlines, we feel as though issues of public safety are at least deserving of coverage. As a student newspaper, The Appalachian has the responsibility to serve as an instrument of awareness for the entire Appalachian community. We trust that the staff of The Appalachian will work to correct this shortcoming immediately. We encourage all concerned parties to immediately initiate constructive dialog concerning sexual harassment and campus safety issues. Campus Women's Collective ASU Box 12099 New basketball coach needed To the Editor: I am an avid college basketball fan and have faithfully followed the Mountaineers throughout my four years at ASU. The Mountain­ eers have always had reasonable talent and have been exciting to watch. However, one thing has remained painstakingly constant and that is the suspect, often poor coaching by Head Coach Tom Apke. This year alone, I have seen the Mountaineers battle back and forth with ETSU in the first half. The starters were then benched for eight minutes, only to return down by 18. In the second half they battled back to a tie only to see the subs placed in for eight more minutes, thus allowing the Buccaneers to build a 20 point lead. By then it was too late to recover. : \ However, I am still planning to attend as many games as possible and to continue supporting Mountaineer athletics. I can only hope another Cleveland State will come along soon and give coach Apke an offer he can't refuse. Randall Teal ASU Box 13194 Losing ASU Loft would be tragic To the Editor: The loss of the New York Loft or even the Washington, D.C., Appalachian House would be a terrible tragedy to this campus. I had the opportunity to visit the Loft in New York over Fall Break with the Department of Theater and Dance and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

According to the report, $45 worth of beer was stolen. The police report stated that Blackwelder was apprehended on a bank behind Tumbleweed. The other ac­ complices were not found at the time. According to Blackwelder a second person was later charged. Blackwelder worked as a chef for the Tumbleweed restaurant the summer prior to the incident. Blackwelder said that theowner of the Tumbleweed, Bart Conway, called police to drop the charges; however, the state refused. The Appalachian was unable to reach Conway for a comment. Blackwelder said that the incident never would have happened had he not been drinking. "I was completely drunk," Blackwelder said. "I was doing some­ thing stupid and reckless." Blackwelder was taken to the Boone Police Department and arrested for breaking and entering. Blackwelder was given a deferral agreement, which allowed him to do community service and remove the arrest from his record. Blackwelder currently has a lawyer working to clear the charges from his record. "A lot of people don't think before acting and I made a mistake" said Blackwelder. "If you don't learn from your mistakes, you don't learn at all." The two other candidates for SGA president, J.D.

By KELLIE WELBORN Staff Writer Although minority studentshave made gains in college enrollment, their progress has been jeopardized by re­ ductions in state and federal funding that limit their access to higher educa­ tion, a new report says. The status report by the American Council on Education also concludes that minorities are still "far underrepresenled" in higher education in most states when compared with the states' racial makeup. The council's annual report on mi­ norities in higher education charts na­ tional data on high school graduation rates, college participation, enrollments and degree attainment. From 1980 to 1990, Hispanics re­ corded a nearly 66 percent enrollment gain nationally and African-American enrollment jumped 22.6 percent. Mi­ nority enrollment in professional and graduate schools also rose consider­ ably in the last decade, according to the report. The report found that in 1990 and 1991, minority enrollment saw limited progress because of widespread state budget cuts, which reduced funding for higher education and forced many uni­ versities to raise tuition rates and more students to seek financial aid, including loans. "Access by minorities to higher edu­ cation is in peril," American Council on Education President Robert Atwell said. "The growing imbalance between federal grants and loansalready has put many minority students at a disadvan­ tage." Atwell said an upcoming cut in the maximum Pell Grant from $2,400 to $2,300 will exacerbate the situation. He also predicted that state fiscal con­ ditions will not improve soon, which he translated to "continued hardship for many public institutions." While the report's results were dis­ appointing to college officials nationSee MINORITIES page 11 (CPS)—With the resurgence of in­ terest in preserving the environment, college students are choosing conser­ vation careers that combine classroom theory and practical work outdoors. Job analysts say there are growing opportunities in the environmental and natural resources fields that are wellsuited to students who have science backgrounds and who want to work with people. Part of the new interest in so-called "green jobs" has todo with the political atmosphere, officials said. While inter­ est was high in environmental work during the 1960s and '70s, it plum­ meted in the 1980s. However, Presi­ dent Clinton and Vice President A1 Gore have made the environment a priority in their administration, and many college students and graduates are heavily involved in the movement. Some of the majors needed to be considered for green jobs include range management, parks or recreation, enviromental studies, oceanography and marine science, hazardous waste man­ agement and forestry. Officials said that getting an envi­ ronmental job is tough, and initial sala­ ries tend to be low- ranging from about $13,494 to $17,270 for federal jobs to $18,000 to $22,000 in the private sec­ tor. The Student Conservation Associa­ tion, SCA, based in Charlestown, N.H. fosters the development of young people and adults through conservation ser­ vice opportunities on federal public lands. The program for college students involves them working in three-month internships in national parks and wil­ derness areas, land managed by the Bureau of Land Management and other public land under federal jurisdiction. The SCA was able to put 1,000 vol­ unteers to work in Yellowstone Na­ tional Park after the devastating fires in 1988, and has sent volunteers to Ever glades National Park in Florida after Hurricane Andrew struck the area in 1992. About 7,000 college students apply annually for the 1,200 positions nationwide offered by SCA, said Destry Jarvis, executive vice president of SCA. The internship, in which the students receive room, board and travel expenses, lasts three to four months. About 70 percent of the program's participants go into environ­ mental jobs when they graduate from college. "There is a clear pattern and trend across the country to both give some­ thing back in general to the country and in particular, there is very strong envi­ ronmental awareness and feeling for the earth that is engendered in college students," Jarvis said. �2—The Appalachian.

February 18.1993 . By KATE HESS Assistant Et Cetera Editor The idea of traveling West appeals to a great many people. It is the idea of venturing into the unknown land, full of different cultures and people. Thoughts of mountains, deserts and In­ dian reservations produce images of freedom and adventure. At AppalachianState University, these dreams have become a reality for some students. They are able to enroll in classes where they study about Indian life and life in the western part of the United States, and then receive the opportu­ nity to travel these lands and gain hands-cm experience. The classes are only offered in the spring semester, and fall under different departments. Some of the departments include anthropology, and human development and psychologicalcoun­ seling. The class currently being taught incounseling is entitled "Indian Spirituality," and is only taught to graduate students. Dr. Sally Atkins, in counseling, and Joan Walls, in psychology, are the instructors of the class this spring, which is held on Monday evenings. The focus of this counseling class is on learn­ ing more about the Southwest Indian culture, and its traditions and beliefs about arts and religion. The students will watch films that show the terrain that they will be traveling on for twelve days over spring break. While in Arizona and New Mexico, the students will get to visit Zuni pueblos, Indian reservations, and plateaus, and actually speak with some of the Indians W m K about their lives and the environment in which they live. This program was begun in the 1970s, and the counseling part of it has been going for its fifth year. Dr. Harvard Ayers, professor of anthropol­ ogy, is the primary force behind both theclasses and the trip. Right now, the eleven students that will be going on the trip with the Indian Spirituality class are trying to raise money for two different Native American projects and the actual journey out west. They discovered the projects when they were out there in years past. The money raised at the various fund-raisers goes to the Southwest Native American Arts Foundation and to Annie Pablito, a 10-year-old Indian girl who lives on the Zuni Reservation, who is in need of a lung transplant. Her parents do not have adequate funds for medical treat­ ment. In order to help create an awareness of the Indian arts culture, Zuni painter Alex , Seowtewa presented his slides and a lecture on Feb. 9 in Edwin Duncan Hall.

It is the story of a family's struggle to survive within the separateness they've created out of their own illusions.The play is narrated by Tom Wingfield, played by Jason Gilbert. Tom, a would-be writer with a job at the Continental Shoemakers Warehouse, is obligated to support his mother, Amanda, and his sister, Laura. He has been the family's supporter since their father left them sixteen years earlier. Amanda, played by Molly Anne Tyson, is described as a woman clinging to the romantic past of the South.

But Laura, overwhelmed with the stress and pressure, gets sick atschool anddoesn't go back. If Laura cannot have a business career, the alternative Amanda sees is for her to get mar­ ried. So Amanda begins the plans of redecorating the house, buying clothes for Laura, and pres­ suring Tom to bring "some nice young man (home) from the warehouse." Tom obliges his mother and invites Jim O'Connor, played by Russell Poole, home to meet his sister. Jim is described as a "nice, ordinary, young man." Laura discovers that the "Gentleman Caller" is the same boy she had a crush on in high school and falls ill at the prospect of facing him again. Through his w armth and winning charm, Jim is able to briefly coax Laura out of her fragile world, only to have her world shattered again along with her little glass unicorn. Tom, no longer able to deal with the pressure of his mother's expectations, abandons his family and follows in his father's footsteps "as far as the system of transportation reaches." Teresa Lee, assistant professor in the Theatre & Dance department, is director of the show. She has directed past productions of "Tartuffe," "Children of a Lesser God" and is director for the Appalachian Young People's Theatre. Of the play, Lee says, "Williams' masterpiece drama still touches audiences after nearly a half-century. It reveals a universal human condition few of us cannot identify with — that of shattered dreams and unfulfilled expectations."

The Mountaineers posted a 4-0-0 mark in league dual competition and stand at 10-4-0 overall for the 1992-93 season. The only points for the Wildcats came at the 118 pound division via an Appalachian forfeit. Three Mountaineers moved up in weight class for the match, including All-American Donnell Rawls (134), Scott Beachamp (142), and Victor Balmeeeda (150). All three wrestlers collected victories in the match. Rawls won 21-5 over Sean Harvey, Beachamp took down Francis Mitchell on a technical fall and Balmeeeda de­ feated Derek Spencer, 21-9. Two App rriatmen started for the first time in dual competition. Mark Lesh won in the 158 pound weight division with a default over Jared Glick and Duke Howell pinned Osrie Prioleau at the :37 mark of the heavyweight division. In the 167 pound weight division, Bill Baker won by pin. Baker toe* down Davidson's Robert Brandsard at the 1:33 mark. Other Appalachian State wrestlers who claimed victories were Mike Orris at 126 pounds, Seth Meyerson at 177, and John Reynolds at 190. Orris won by forfeit while Meyerson toe* an8-l w in over Tom Greene. Reynolds won 130 over Bo Bartholomew. "The team did really well," ASU Head Coach Paul Mance said. "Davidson wrestled well. They (Davidson) are not really a powerhouse wrestling school and they are just getting their program started. We didn't use four or five of our usual starters and we moved everyone up a weight class," Mance said. Mance recorded his 210th victory with the win. The win was the ninth consecutive victory over the Wildcats in as many meetings. The Apps have held Davidson to under 10 points in seven of those nine matches. The Mountaineers will return home for the first time since their win over the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga on Thursday to take on Campbell University to close out the regular season.

The problem is that security is not being essed with the urgency it needs. Instead it is being buried. Vithin the past few months, a woman was raped, guns were found in dorm ins, numerous areas on campus were spray-painted, a man was shot and i things that are bolted to the wall have been ripped off, yet the level of irity appears to remain unchanged and even unquestioned, s possible to walk from Cone Residence Hall to Edwin Duncan without ^crossing a street, yet we still do not have adequate foot patrol. How can an icer in a car stop an assault or vandalism when a majority of the campus is accessible by foot or bicycle? The answer is it can't be done, prime seems to be on the rise on campuses across the state. The University North Carolina at Chapel Hill stepped up security on campus alter a series es last summerand one last fall. The dorms on campus remain locked 24 s a day. Residents have access to their dorm by either individual keys to ' frontdoor or access cards. The campus policealso increased the foot patrol well asroad patrol. One officer patrols on foot and one in a vehicle at all times lition to having a police-run student patrol. NC-Chapel Hill makes our attempts at an escort service look like little more nagoodwill gesture. The campus boasts of both a student run escort service "ell as a university run van shuttle for everyone's use at night. Instead of owing their lead, our administration still refuses to take responsibility for 1 small escort service that is on campus, leaving late night walkers without r form of escort service at all. North Carolina State University also maintains a 24-hour lock-up on dorms fckey and card access for residents. The university police patrol the campus li officers in cars and on bicycles as well as a student foot patrol. The !*6rsity police also offer a student escort service. university has chosen to hide behind the words "small town" and"small N*is" implying there is little crime on this campus. Wake up! There is crime Wscampus and it is not going to go away. Twoother UNC-system schools ^ increased security, yet Appalachian lags behind. Security needs to be psod quickly before more problems arise. P* ASU Police should not be held totally responsible for not providing more Nty. The problem runs deeper. If security is going to be stepped up, the Pinistration and the Board of Trustees needs to increase the funding, loping crime will go away is not the answer. Boone and ASU are growing, ' so far security on campus has not kept up. Crime can not be completely N°ut, but more of an effort needs to be made. Let's dig ourselves out of and try harder. THE^^FAR SIDE By GARY LARSON "A Louie, Louie .. - wowooo gotta go now .. we By ROBERT ROBERTSON Columnist A few weeks agosomeone must have found a whole bunch of extra pads full of parking tickets. Excited beyond their wildest dreams they hunted for some way to rid themselves of this excess inventory, and yet turn a sound profit at the same time. Suddenly it hit them— attack the commuters at South Parking Lot (Broyhill Inn). First came a wave of white warnings followed quickly by a squadron of yellow violation slips which waved at the returning students as if to say, "Hi, I'm from ASU Police, and just how fat is your bank account?" The hideous crime against humanity: park­ ing above the fence and taking away from the parking available to the millions of patrons to the Broyhill Inn. I for one have yet to see a mass influx of travelers to this once respected establishment. Maybe they're all driving Stealths or some other invisible craft. Pres­ ently those who do commute have to parte at the verrrrry end and walk alllll the way up to the shelter. When you see a desolate parking area, yet you have to bypass it to park a fooball field away, it tends to bring out some bitter emotions. You tend to hateCampus Police, the drivers who store their cars there for the week, the Appalcart people, and God, for the current weather conditions. It's bad enough that a sticker costs the same for everyone whether their cars are there all week or for just a few hours a day, but the lot isn't even paved! State Farm costs half the priceof South and they don't have to worry about mud slides or going off a cliff. Don't tell me people at South are paying fifty dollars extra to get an Appalcart every fifteen minutes versus once an hour at State Farm. This brings me to another dilemma. Parking on campus is bad enough on weekends without certain people, for some unknown reasons, retrieving their cars on Friday to let them sit, unmoving, in a space until Sunday, when they take it back to some automo­ tive corral off campus. Why do they to this? I actually know people who belong to this fanatical suit and even they can't answer me. If you don't need your car, don't go and get it. Fight whatever compulsion falls upon you at the end of the school week. Let someone who works or has responsibilities outside of campus use the space. Also, why do people park perpendicular to parked cars, thus blocking them in? Ever witness the Lovill lot on Friday and Saturday nights? This is crazy. Somewhere on campus there's a person who owes a friend of mine a favor. He physically detained me from etching my initials into their illegally placed car which just happened toimpede my exit from Doughton lot. Rarely do I see a yellow flag waving at me from beneath the windshield wipers of these callous fiends. They must save those tickets for commuters. So how about everyone writing in solutions or talking to your senators about these problems, for I know they upset a lot of people. If you feel the Appalcart shelter should be moved at South, let the adminstration know. If you think there should be more parking available, where should it be, and who should use it? Should we follow other collegiate examples and prohibit freshman from having cars altogether? With ASU attracting more students annually, something's going to have to be done sooner or later. There's plenty of money for research. If ASU will actually pay $12,000 for bike racks, who knows what they'll pay for asphalt? Credit cards operate as legal thieves By BRIAN WINKLER Assistant Commentary Editor I had wanted to do this for quite some time. I dialed the phone excitedly. A young man answered, "Thank you for calling Visa Cardmember Services, how may I help you?" "I would like to cancel my Visa card please," I told him. | "Well sir, you know that your Visa card is accepted at more locations world­ wide than both American Express and MasterCard, and it can be used to help you out in emergencies all over the world. Aren't you sure you would like to keep your card?" "Quite thecontrary, sir. I would like to cancel my Visa card, cut the thing into little tiny bits, and hope that I never have to use another credit card as long as I live." Senator defends his past To the Editor: In response to the article "Blackwelder confirms charges" on the front page of this issue, 1 would like to address the current issue surrounding my campaign for SGA President. In the realm of politics, there is and always has been an enigma as to whether public servants' personal and past actions are relevant to the manner in which they govern. What I believe is not relevant to that question; however, what you, the people, believe is. Because in the final analysis, you will have to decide the outcome of that political enigma. Taking that particular attitude in relation to my past experiences and the current affairs and concerns that are guiding this campaign, I would like to speak with you on this matter. On Labor Day, 1991,1 spent the day with a group of friends. We played, we partied and we celebrated late into the night. In fact, we partied well past 2 a.m., and we all know that you can not buy beer past that time. Well, we were out of beer and wanted some more. If anyone is familiar with the Tumbleweed Bar and Grill, they know there is a fenced in area on the side of the restaurant. That is where they keep an old-timey, slide top cooler, full of beer, which, by the way, has a better locking system. Now, I was employed by the Tumbleweed as a cook that summer and had just quit to go to school. I knew where to get more beer. During this completely stupid and illogical act, someone called the Boone police and I was caught. "Well sir, may I inquire as to the reason you are dissatisfied with your card?" "Sure," I said, "I think it costs too much." The man on the phone then asked, "Could you be a little more specific, sir? What do you mean when you say it costs too much?"Obviously, the thought that interest rates and annual fees build up into piles of money had never crossed his mind before. "Well," I told him, "the interest rate is too high, and I am tired of paying the annual fee." I heard computer keys click­ ing on the other end of the phone. After a slight delay, he said, "Sir, our records show that you are a Valued Customer, and you are eligible to have your annual fee waived." "You mean I don't have to pay the annual fee any more?" I asked. "Never again, sir," came the reply. I thought for a minute. My heart charged with breaking and entering and larceny, and spent two and a half days in the Watagua County jail. All over a beer and an immature and intoxicated mistake. Bart Conway, the owner of the Tumbleweed and a friend of mine, wanted the police to drop the charges, forget the incident and let he and I work it out. Because of Bart Conway's and ultimately the court's attitude about that incident, the case never went to trial. It was dismissed and I served 60 hours of community service in the Appala­ chian State University Philosophy and Religion Department. As I stated earlier, 1 did spend two and a half long and very frightening days in jail. And let me tell all of you reading this letter, it was hell. Spending time in confinement is not normal and when you are in, there is nothing to do but reflect and evaluate. Not many people can tell you they have had a clear and singular pivotal point in their life that changed the way they live it, but I can. Those two and a half days forced me to look at myself and my reckless youth and to evaluate myself as a person and as a member of society. That one particu­ lar incident completely changed the way I live my life. What I did was wrong and extremely disrespectful to Bart Conway, his business and to myself, and I am deeply ashamed of that past action. Because of that night, I have learned that if you cannot respect other people and their interests, then you cannot respect yourself, and a lack of respect results in an incomplete person. I feel that I am now a more complete person because of that knowledge. Those are the facts and that was my action. I am not proud of what I did, but I am not regretful either. I was faced with a decision and I acted pounded. "What about theinterest rate?" I queried. I heard more computer keys clicking. "Sir, our records show that you are a Valued Customer, and you are eligible for a new, lower interestrate," came his programmed response. "Oh, that does sound inviting. No more annual fee, and a new, lower in­ terest rate. Sotellme:iflhadn't wanted to cancel my card,would you have ever told me about the annual fee waiver and the new, lower interest rate?" Apparently I had him stumped, be­ cause I could hear no computer keys clicking and he wasn't saying anything. Finally, an answercame. Hesaid,"Well, actually sir—no. No, wewouldn't have ever told you about the Valued Cus­ tomer Retainment Plan." "Oh," I said, "In that case, my records show that I have already given your company enough money. Pleasecancel my card." "But sir," he protested, "Life on Earth without a Visa card will be a very bad life indeed." He made his final offer, "Maybe we can just forget we ever had this little conversation." "No sir. Just cancel my card, and I will be happy." I must have worn him down, because he finally gave in. He said, "Well, if you insist, sir. Your card is canceled effective immediately." Some computer keys clicked onhis end of thephone and thai he said goodbye. without"thinking. I made a grave mistake and 1 paid the price for that mistake. But at the same time I was given a unique opportunity to change the way I live, to evaluate myself, my way of thinking and to learn from my mistake. I have to refer to my parents, who stood by me throughout this ordeal, and specifically my father, who has given me his simple, yet invaluable philosophy. Learn from everything you do, especially your mistakes, and you will be a better person. That returns us to the political enigma that abounds the individuals who choose the responsibility of serving the people. Will that incident adversely affect the way I wish to serve you, the students, and lifeblood of this university? The answer is no, it will not, and those of you reading this letter who know me know that is true. I only hope that those of you who do not know me yet believe that it is true also. Because you have chosen me to be your representative in the SGA Senate and because I want to serve you as your SGA President, I know that my actions are the concerns of this university, the issues are your concerns and serving you in the best manner I can. I would like to thank the Appala­ chian for the opportunity to speak with you and I want to thank you for your time and understanding. If any one of you wish to speak to me about this matter or any other matter, please feel free to call me, day or night, 2653734. If someone had told me about the Valued Customer Retainment Plan years ago, I would have already saved hundreds of dollars. With all of the friends I have who owe their souls to their plastic, I thought I would share my new wisdom with as many people as possible. Call your credit card companies to­ day.

In 1991, more than onepj of all 18- to 24-year-old whites enrolled in college, compared with 6 percent of African Americans and ttj•percent of Hispanics in the same age Because of limited budgets, many states are turning their attention to twoyear colleges. While this practice may increase enrollment, the report states that the trend could "affect the future pipeline of minority professionals, since the two-year/four-yar transfer rate for minorities remains especially low." Minority enrollment at two-year col­ leges rose by 13.4 percent between 1990 and 1991. Between 1989 and 1990, the number of bachelor's degrees awarded to mi­ norities rose 5.8 percent, compared with 2.7 percent for whites. It s clear from the data that, while minority students are enrolling in col­ lege in large numbers, many are not completing degrees," said Deborah Carter, co-author of the report. "Institu­ tions need to consider the range of factors that contribute to students re­ maining in college, from financial is­ sues to environmental considerations, in crafting better retention strategies." Minority enrollment in professional schools increased by 80.7 percent and in graduate schools by 52 percent be­ tween 1980 and 1990. In contrast, en­ rollment by whites decreased by 10.4 percent in professional schoolsand grew by 19.5 percent at the graduate level. tenor i tinued from page 4 ,al opera star who comes to Clevelfor his American debut in a proction of Verdi's "Otello." lie local impresario has sold thouids of tickets at outrageous prices for iat is supposed to be the greatest jhl in Cleveland's history.

Effie McClain ASU Box 14710 Gays should stay out of military To the Editor: Concerning gays in the military: everyone admits that there are already gays in the military, so let's simply legalize it. Let us use this line of thought and really effect some social change. Everyone admits that there are already thieves, drug abusers and murderers in the military, so let's legalize them also. Concerning gays in the military: Harry Truman integrated the races in the military. It worked, so let's integrate sexual preference. Harry Truman was a great innova­ tor. Let's use some of the thousands of finely constructed atomic weapons that he used. Lets see: one for the Toyota plant, one for Bosnia. Come on, Harry used them...let's push some buttons. Concerning gays in the military: there are gay veterans who served honorably. Service should not be based on sexual preference. The military should be the cutting edge of a changing social structure. This is wrong. Those "honorable" veterans violated their own Uniform Code of Military Justice. At the very least, their honor is suspect. The military is and should be the arm of political structure that lets us sleep soundly at night. The military should concern itself with simultaneously preparing for war and preventing it. The task is so challenging that Albert Einstein said that it could not be done. If there is ever a social change in the military, it should be for two reasons. One reason is to enhance the fighting capability of the military. READY FOR A CHANGE?

Any­ thing else that the military does is counterproductive, and eventually will cost lives. It is easy to watch M.A.S.H. and laugh at the curious political arm that keeps those doctors chest deep in bodies. It is quite another matter to be on one of those gumeys. There are already enough atrocities in war. Do not suggest another misguided social policy that will multiply their numbers.

"I hope this is an isolated incident," said Rupp. "I respect the integrity of my students and I hope they respect mine." "We will do everything we can to deal fairly with everyone concerned," said Ward. "We are concerned about the feelings motivated by the vandal­ ism, but we cannot permit this behav­ ior." The Campus Women's Collective was questioned by officials about a possible involvement in the vandal­ ism, said a member of the collective. The collective was concerned about rumors that pointed them out as the vandals. The collective denies involvement with the graffiti. "I want to state my unequivocal opposition to these and all such crimes," said Chancellor John Tho­ mas. "An individual'slight toexpress strongly felt opinions is not the is­ sue—that is one's constitutional right. However, acts of anonymous vandal­ ism foster suspicion andhostility, pre­ venting people from working together for change." The Campus Women's Collective also stated they do not condone the vandalism act, but they do realize there is a problem to be addressed. "This (vandalism) is a symptom of a much1arger problem," said Women's Collective member Wendy Tonker.

Political correctness discussed Visitors shot n campus By DAWN McGUIRE Assistant News Editor Three Duke University professors addressed the issue of political cor­ rectness during a panel discussion at Farthing Auditorium on Thursday. However, the three lengthy speeches left some members of the audience confused. "Could you all break your speeches down into a one minute summery, asked one ASU student, during a ques­ tion-answer session. "I really couldn't understand a word some of you said." The professors focused on political correctness at universities, especially in the area of what type of literature is taught. Although the professors dis­ agreed on minor issues, all said that they did not feel that there was a specific, organized political correct­ ness movement on college campuses.

RIME Graduate students speak out CpEPORTS m Warrant issued By SUZILANDIS News Editor Appalachian graduate students are pushing for a larger input at ASU. a year of reorganizing,the Gradu­ ate School Senate is asking for more say on where their fees are spent and for improvements in graduate pro­ grams and gradute life. "We want to raise student aware­ ness " said Melissa Mummey, vicepresident of GSAS. "Graduate stu­ dents have special needs. Last spring, the senate addressed fee concerns in a survey questioning how much graduate students use the facilities their fees support. Out of the 900 graduate students, 134 responded to the poll. Of those participants, 89 percert were full-time students, 11 percent were part-time students and 60.4 percent received some form of After taineer's lose o over the 7 ammentary I V . J^he l o f t financial aid. The majority of responses to atten­ dance of athletic events and student activities (such as shows in Legends) and use of health services stayed in the "occasionally,""hardly ever," and "never" categories. Participants indi­ cated that P.E., recreation and athlet­ ics facilities were usedmore than other areas. Graduate students would like to have a choice to pay fees for what services they use, said Mummey. "I feel that graduate fees should be used directly for some aspect of gradu­ ate education, such as thelibrary. This would be a far better place to spend funds that come from the pockets of research-oriented students," said one response to the survey. The survey also asked if graduate students felt they needed a representativeon theBoard of Tmstees. Ninetyfour percent of the participants be­ lieved there was a need for a represen­ tative. Without a direct member on the Board of Trustees, graduate students must convey their needs to the SGA President who then relays the infor­ mation to the Board. Mummey finds a flaw in this process. If a board mem­ ber was to ask the undergraduate rep­ resentative to elaborate on the need, the person would not be equipped to reply, said Mummey. The Graduate School Senate is also wanting more funding for their inter­ est. Mummey explained thatthe gradu­ ate senate receives a very small amount compared to SGA. The $6000-8000 allotted for GSAS is spent on research grants and travel. Thesenate does not have money to focus on graduate stu­ dent life like SGA does, said Mummey. TheGS AS budget has not increased in three years and stipends for assistantships have not increased in three years, said Mummey. Mummey added that the budget problems are not all attributed to the university. Most of the money allottment is established by the state. Another issue tackled by the GSAS is representation on the Chancellor Search Committee. "It was an over­ sight to leave out graduate students," said Mummey.The executive council of the Graduate Senate has written a letter tothe search committee express­ ing their concerns on the lack of rep­ resentation. Many of the issues raised by the GSAS are also acknowledged in the SeeGRADS page 2 Compiled by DAWN McGUIRE Assistant News Editor Appalachian police issued a war­ rant Thursday for the arrest of a Lenior resident charged with mak­ ing obscene telephone calls to an ASU student. Police hope to make the arrest by today. The person will be charged in the Watauga County Court. An unlocked vehicle parked in the Baptist church lot was entered Monday, Feb.8 and $75 worth of personal items were stolen. University police are investigat­ ing a case of indecent exposure that occured in East residence hall Sunday. A black male pulled his pants down, exposing himself to residents of East. A description of the subject was obtained and an investigation is pending. A licence tag was stolen from a car in the State Farm parking lot on Sunday. An investigation is pend­ ing. A student was taken to the Watauga County Hospital emer­ gency room Friday after falling down thestairs at thestudent union. The student suffered swelling in the right leg and ankle. University police were requested to fill out a report Saturday for an unauthorized entry into a room on the third floor of East. There were no signs of a forced entry and noth­ ing was stolen. The resident re­ ported that the door was locked when she left. Upon return, the resi­ dent noticed someone had been in the room. An elevator panel that had been stolen from Coltrane residence hall last week was returned to a fifth floor RA's door. The panel was found infront of the RA's door and returned to the elevator.

Continued from page 1 Collective member Wendy Tonker. Members of the Women's Collec­ tive met with Chancellor of Academic Affairs Dr. Harvey Durham last week to discuss their concerns with the lack of coverage in The Appalachian, se­ curity on campus, and sexual harass­ ment cases involving the professor named in the graffiti. "We were concerned with the story being covered up,"said Tonker. "We wanted to let him (Durham) know we were concerned." Durham assured the group that theadministration hasnoth­ ing to do with what's printed in The Appalachian, said Tonker. The collective questioned the abil­ ity of a person(s) to paint a mass amount of graffiti on campus without security's knowledge. "We Medeeply concerned with the apparent lack of security on our campus" the collective said in a letter to The Appalachian. According tothe campus police log, Sanford was secured at 12:15 a.m. Tuesday morning. At 3:53 a.m., po­ lice reported the black painted mes­ sages in Sanford and the surrounding areas. Police are uncertain how the vandals gained access to Sanford. Foster suggested that either the vandal(s) had a key to the building or someone left inside the building let the subject(s) inside. Tonker expressed her disturbance over the possibility that a rape or as­ sault could have taken place between the three and a half hours the vandal­ ism took place without police know- D ( ing. Most of the graffiti was cleaned up early Tuesday morning. Foster esti­ mated the cost of clean-up including labor and materials between $2000 and $3000. Physical plant personnel assisted with the cleaning, but the Sanford housekeepers were respon­ sible for most of the cleaning, said Foster. The collective questioned the ur­ gency used in cleaning the graffiti. "It's sad to me that they [administra­ tors] can come up with the resources to clean the graffiti, when the addition of one or two officers might have stopped" the graffiti in the first place, said Tonker. The collective was told by Durham that the clean-up was done quickly to prevent possible libel actions by the professor against the university. Ward, however, said legal actions did not prompt the clean-up. Since student recruits are touring the university and the graffiti was so visible, actions to wipe off the graffiti were taken. ASU police welcome any informa­ tion regarding the vandalism. Persons with information will be kept confi­ dential, said Foster. Thomas also ex­ pressed the desire to hear from con­ cerned faculty, staff or students. "Ad­ ministrators in theoffices of academic affairs and student development are prepared to meet with members of the university community todiscuss these issues," stated a memo from the ASU News Bureau.

The Black Student Association is an active part of Appalachian that is often misunderstood. Tasha White, the president of the BSA, says that the organization is "an active voice for African American students," yet most people don't realize that the BSA also stresses multiculuralism and diversity enhancement. "Different nationalities tend to back off be­ cause of the name 'Black Student Association,"' White said, "but we always invite other nation­ alities." The BSA is combined with the gospel choir. The two organizations support each other with events. White said that the gospel choir recruits white students and currently has five or six in the group. According to White, the Black Student Association started 17 years ago as a result of a "heed for a centralized place" for minority stu­ dents. "It's a central ground in meeting other students," she said. "It's a home base away from home." Willie Fleming is the current director of the association. White said that she has developed much respect for Fleming while working with him. "It's nice to know that black administrators do care; there's someone you can talk to when times are rough," she said. The association has about 35-45 members and 100 people in the choir. It is not a national organization, but White said that there are usu­ ally similar organizations on other campuses. Appalachian Photo by Randy Relnink BSA PRESIDENT REFLECTS. Tasha White, president of the Black Student Association, has many events planned for Black History Month. White hopes that BSA will become more culturally diverse in the future.

The program was an appropriate accent to Unity Month, dialogues for the healing of rac­ ism, going on through March, 26 at the center. Chuck Donoghue, a local musician, orga­ nized the event. "This is to let people know about Diz and the concept of international unity," said Donoghue. The program also highlighted the work of Roan Orloff Stone,a worldrenownes teacher of Esperanto. A tireless performer, Gillespie spent his life promoting the oneness of mankind through his music. His international sound touched thelives of people worldwide. The walrus-cheeked, polyrhythmic Gillespie performed many world tours as Ambassador of Jazz for the state depart­ ment. He died of pancreatic cancer on Jan. 6 at age 75. Bom in Cheraw, S.C., John Birks Gillespie developed his unique style of composition from the piano. He arrived in New York in 1937 and played his first concert at Carnegie Hall just 10 years later. Dizzy's trademark bent trumpet came soon after. "My real love for Dizzy comes from his commitment to live music," added Donoghue. Keep in mind that this was a man who felt that the best way to reach people was one on one. From his birthday anthology "Dizzy's Dia­ monds" to the more contemporary sounds of "Afro-Cuban Jazz Moods," Gillespie's music spoke to people in many different languages.

Fads come and go, but traditions are actions and beliefs that are passed from one class to another, a uniting bond that brings a singular identity to students and alumni. Tradition is a common thread that binds the past and present together, knowing that in the future, students and faculty will participate in the same stupid, time-honored thing that you did. Some schools perpetuate tradition through animal acts, unusual initiation ceremonies, canceling classes on a whim, students who expose themselves in various inventive ways, and, yes, even wedding dresses at graduation. In the 1920s, Antioch University, in Yellow Springs, Ohio, got a new presi­ dent. Arthur Morgan, so the story goes, didn't have a college degree so he couldn't wear a cap and robe at his first commencement exercise. "The faculty was concerned how he was going to present himself," Antioch spokesman Jim Mann said. "He de­ cided he was going to wear his best brown suit, and the faculty ruminated about this, and they decided to wear their best brown suits." And so a tradition was born at Antioch: Students and faculty mem­ bers present themselves in whatever manner they chose at graduation. This code swerved wildly during the years, when sometimes a traditional gradua- tion was held, but since the 1960s the liberal arts school has held steadfast to an informal celebration of graduation. A couple of years ago a male student wore a wedding dress to his own gradu­ ation. "That was his choice," Mann said. But even at a non-traditional tradi­ tional event, the date is always thesame for graduation at Antioch: the third Saturday in June. At least the student wore clothes. Sophomores at Princeton University in New Jersey take their clothes off and streak around the university and town during the first snowfall. It's gone on since the 1970s, said a university spokes­ woman, adding the practice is not sanc­ tioned by the school. Last year charges were brought against 39 students, who had to serve community time. The local police de­ partment videotaped the whole thing, the spokeswoman said, and the univer­ sity promised consequences for future streaking. In early December, there was a re­ peat performance and tradition was upheld. During a major snowstorm, about 250 students ran naked through the university and town, with about 50 nude students running through a restau­ rant and 75 running amok in a conve­ nience store. Two students were arrested in the store and charged with lewdness, disor­ derly conduct, possession of stolen prop­ erty and shoplifting, police said. Whitman College in Walla Walla, Wash., and Kalamazoo College in Kalamazoo, Mich., both have traditions that revolve around the everyday com­ mon rat. Actually, Whitman's custom involves a more exotic species of rat than your everyday, common rodent: the Kangaroo Rat, or roo rat for short The Roo Rat Society was formed 25 years ago by science department fac­ ulty and science students as an exercise to show how studentscan be kind to lab animals. It evolved into an environ­ mentally conscious group. Whitman spokeswoman Lenel Williams said. "For students to stay in (the Roo Rat Society) they have to do something environmental once a year," Williams said. "It's sort of neat and quirky.Espe­ cially for a serious small liberal arts college." On the appointed night, usually in the fall or spring, a group of Roo Rat wannabes drive to Wallula Gap, about 40 miles from the school, with Roo Rat alumni. They drive up a gravel road, stop their vehicles and leave the lights on. The roo rats will start dashing across the light beams, or more specifically, hop to and fro. (That's why they're called roo rats). Students, faculty mem­ bers and other college employees try to catch a roo rat, and once caught, they let it go. That's how you join the society. It's apparently not easy catching a roo rat. "They're very quick," William said. "Once you catch them, sometimes they sitonyourarmandstareatyou." There's a theory that the same roo rat, if in a good mood, will let itself be caught from year to year, thusleaving theother roo rats to do whatever roo rats do at night in peace.

"It's a continuous re­ minder of my social responsibility." The association has planned several events to help honor Black History Month. The events include work­ shops, lectures, a ladies' forum and a fashion show. An African American spirituality and personality work­ shop will also be included, which ac­ cording to White will help improve self-esteem and dismiss some of the myths about African American his­ tory.

GANTT taff Writer ASU suffered another disappointing Sunday afternoon,falling to SouthConference foe Georgia Southern 2-84 for their fourth straight loss. The game was close throughout, but difference forGSU was senior point uard Charlton Young, who shot an ible 8-11 from three-point range totalled a game-high 29 points. Billy Ross performed his usual ofive fireworks, scoring 23 points, oss and fellow senior Joe Sabato were • ibly disappointed with the loss in final home game at ASU. "It hurt not having a better going way present than this," said Sabato, ho had three points in his farewell to Mountaineers' home floor. ASU coach Tom Apke was also disrtened by the loss. "This one hurt a because we played with pride and a of extra effort today," said Apke, Our problems were that we may have ed too hard, which led tosome impul­ se turnovers by our young guys in the raid half." ASU also had trouble with Georgia Southern's physically imposing front line. Starters Chad McClendon, Ricky Nedd and Ross each fell intofoul trouble in the second half, which forced Apke to goto a three-guard lineup for most of the second half. As a result, the Mountaineers were out-rebounded 38-37, marking the twentieth time in 23 games the ASU cagers have been beaten on the boards this season. ASU took a47-46 lead into the locker room at the end of the first half. The game remained a back-and-forth duel, with neither team leading by more than four points for most of the second half. However, Kevin Washington's 21footer at 4:28 gave the visiting Eagles a 80-78 lead which they would maintain for the duration of the game. Nod Carter's three-pointer at 3:27 closed the GSU lead to 82-81, but ASU could not overcome the deficit. Free throws in the waning moments iced the victory for the Eagles. Ross seemed to sum up the collective feeling of the Mountaineer squad. "We're really frustrated because this is a game we should have won. Wemissed some big shots that could've given us a win we really needed," said a melan­ choly Ross after the game. On Saturday, the Mountaineers dropped another heart breaker, this time to The Citadel, 75-71. Ross, who leads the Southern Con­ ference in scoring and is twelfth in the NCAA with a 24.3 average going into the weekend, shined again offen­ sively, shooting 72 percent from the field for 27 points. William Cook added 11 points and Chad McClendon contributed seven points and nine re­ bounds. ASU led by as many as 16 points in the first half, and took an eight point lead into the intermission. However, a technical on the Bulldog bench at the break seemed to inspire the gritty Citadel squad. The Bulldogs chiselled away at the Mountaineer lead, tying the game at 44 with 13:15 to play. The game remained close the rest of the way, with no team taking more than a four point lead. At 1:58, freshman guard Brian Hege was whistled for a personal foul and a See EAGLES page 8 Appalachian photo by Paul Lampe FAREWELL TO ROSS: ASU senior standout Billy Ross played in his final home game this past Sunday.

MARLEY taff Writer Appalachian State's wrestling came away big this past weekwith a 32-9 conference win over he Citadel Bulldogs on Friday End a first place finish at the South[astern Invitational on Saturday. Both events took place in Charleston, pC. The wins improved the Mountain­ eers' record to 9-4 overall. ASU is undefeated in the Southern Conference. "We figured we were going to win the match. We were a better team than they were," said ASU Head Coach Paul Mance. We knew that there were four or five good matchups that would give us a battle and they had some weak spots where they would give up six points," he added. At the dual meet, Appalachian cap­ tured eight of the ten weight classses while The Citadel only picked up the 134 and 190poundweightclasses. Alan Smith, wrestling at 134 pounds, skated by Scott Beauchamp with a 6-5 score. Vince Crum defeated Seth Meyerson by a technical fall. Appalachian earned three victories by one-point margins, two by pins and three by exceptional point margins. Mike Orris, wrestling at 118 pounds, edged out Citadel's Tony McKay 7-6. Donnell Rawls, wrestling at 126pounds, put away opponent Chris Mattioni with a pin in 6:51. Victor Balmaceda got a 21-6 major decision over J ames Phil lips. Kyle Kuykendall, wrestling at 142 pounds, edged a 2-1 decision over Bill Berry. Corey Creech, wrestling at 158 pounds, got a 16-5 major decision over Bob Stephenson. Shomari Rozier, wres­ tling at 167, edged out Rob Reaves with an 8-7 score. It took all of one minute for 177-pounder Bill Baker to put aw ay Darrell Wiggins. That was Baker's 20th career pin. "I think that I have wrestled pretty well considering the year that I've had," commented Baker. "I'm looking to do well this week and plan to finish up hard in the conference." Heavyweight Melvin Crosby won 21 in double overtime against Sean Begley. Crosby now holds the number one ranking in the conference as a result of defeating Begley twice. Both were tied for first until the weekend'sevents. "We (Begley) have wrestled each other so many times, we know each other's style. Who ever has the better day will win," Crosby commented. "You are going tohave to kill me to beat me since this is my last year of eligibil­ ity." In preparation for the league tourna­ ment, ASU competed in the Southeast­ ern Invitational.The Mountaineers cap­ tured the tournament with 111.5 points. This was the fifth consecutive year that ASU won the first place trophy. The Citadel finished second with 54.25 points. Five teams competed in the See WIN page 8 Lady Mountaineers run past Marshall 80-47 B\ LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor pARIN GANTT ptaff Writer Appalachian State's women's bas:etball squad turned in anamazing overpi performance this past Saturday, nishing Marshall, 80-47 at home. Angela Crosby led the Lady Mounnineers with 24 points and six rebounds, pegina Heard also played a key role in Fe win as she added 17 points and pven rebounds. "We finally played the entire forty nutes, and we concentrated and ex­ ited our game plan effectively," ASU Head Coach Linda Robinson said. "It •y be the best game we have played s season." The Lady Apps used a 20-1 run in the second half to secure a lead that they would not give up. Robinson's squad took an impressive 45-21 lead into the locker room at the half. A13-0 ASU run midway through the second half added emphasis to what was by that time a foregone conclusion for the visiting Lady Herd. Robinson noted that the two keys to the Lady Mountaineer victory were her team's ability to handle Marshall's full court pressure and the excellent perfor­ mances turned in by her post players, Crosby and Heard. "We attacked their press calmly, which enabled us to reduce the amount of turnovers that we committed against them last time," Robinson said. "Also, (Shannon) Spencer grew up a lot and handled the pressure very well." Robinson also praised the perfor­ mances of Ikard and Crosby, "Angie and Regina playedmagnificently.They were able to create their own shots despite the fact that they were doubleand triple-teamedthroughout thegame." The defense of ASU was also a key, holding Marshall to only 30.5 percent field goal shooting for the game. "If we play good defense like we did tonight, we can play with anyone in the conference," Robinson said. The Lady Mountaineers fell to East Tennessee S tate's Lady Bucc aneers last Wednesday evening, 94-91 in Varsity Gym. Appalachian State took a 91-90 ad­ vantage with just under two minutes remaining in the game with a basket from Spencer. Lady Buccaneer Jenni­ fer Seaton responded with a shot to put ETSU ahead, 92-91. After Spencer missed her next shot, ETSU's Keisha Pilgreen scored on a driving basket to give the Lady Bucs a 94-91 advantage. With :42 remaining to play, Spencer tried tolie the game with a three-pointer but the shot was off. The Lady Apps got one more opportunity to score after ETSU's DeShawne Blocker missed on a one-and-orte, but ASU could notscore. Spencer led the Lady Mountaineers with 18 points. ASU had four other players in double figures including Karolina Karlqvuist (16), Crosby (15), Sheryl Lynch (11) and Beth Kilby (10). Crosby led the squad in rebounding with seven while Lynch led in assists with six. ETSU wasled bySeaton who chipped in 25 points and eight assists. Pilgreen and Blocker added 20 each while Blocker had 16 rebounds. Appalachian State will entertain Georgia Southern andTennessee-Chattanooga this weekend on Saturday and Sunday respectively. Both games be­ gin at 2 p.m. LADY APPS ROLL PAST LADY HERD: Appalachian's women's team took a lop-sided victory over the Lady Herd of Marshall University. App State will take on Georgia Southern in their next Southern Conference tilt. ATHLETE OF THE WEEK By PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor Appalachian State wrestler Donnell Rawls pushed his overall record to 564 this past weekend with pins at The Citadel and the Southeast Invitational, both in Charleston, SC. On S aturday, Rawls won twomatches including a pin over Adam Rothman to take the individual championship in the 126-pound division of the Southeast Invitational. The two wins follow an­ other Rawls pin, this time over Chris Mattioni of The Citadel on Friday. Rawls came to Appalachian in 1991 from Winston-Salem State University. The transfer came as a result of WSSU dropping its wrestling program making Rawls immediately eligible to wrestle at any other school. According to Moun­ taineer head coach Paul Mance, Appa­ lachian State got lucky. H;TSU EDGES LADY APPS: Appalachian State dropped a 94-91 decision to East _cnnesse State University on Wednesday Feb. 10. "Appalachian is very fortunate to have gotten an athlete of his caliber," said Mance. "He is sort of a golden child in terms of his ability, and for someone of that stature to come to a school like ASU is very unusual." Since coming to ASU, Rawls has been nothing short of incredible. He is a two-time All-American in division I wrestling and has lost only four matches in his stint at this university. Currently, Rawls is ranked fourth in the nation in division I wrestling and is 23-2 in 1992-93 with four pins to his credit. He lost his first tournament match since coming to ASU on Dec. 30 at theSunshine Invitational anddropped his first division I regular season tilt on Jan. 19 to the defending NAIA national champion. Since that time, Rawls has won four straight contests and is making stride in the right direction in the run for a na­ tional title. "I believe that Donnell has got an excellent chance, and will become a national champion this year," said Mance." He is the first kid since I came to Appalachian that has had all of the ingredients to become a national cham­ pion. He worksextremely hard, has the desire, the motivation and puts forth the extra effort that is needed." Mance also attributes some of the success of other wrestlers to the leader­ ship of Rawls. "His career at Appalachian has been unbelievable," said Mance. "He is a great motivator and he helps the other guys by showing them what it takes." Rawls and the Mountaineers will compete again tonight at Davidson and then on Feb. 18 at home against Campbell in the regular season finale.

Ross cut the lead to 70-68 with a driving four-footer; but the Bulldogs took advantage of ASU's subsequent pressure by hitting Chad Leonard, breaking upcourt, with a baseball pass for a lay-up and a 72-68 lead. However, in his typical heroic fash­ ion, Ross hit a 21-footer with :33 re­ maining to close the gap to 72-71. ASU had a chance to win the game in the closing seconds, but Ross, sur­ rounded by three Bulldog defenders, walked, sealing thevictory for The Cita­ del. Ross later dispelled any doubts about what many deemed a questionable call. "1 travelled; but I was carrying three of their defenders who were scratching and clawing at me." Apke was particularly disappointed with the loss because his squad was "outfought, outscrapped andouthustled by a team we should have beaten." Senior guard Joe Sabato allowed that -maybe we looked past the Citadel toward a tough Georgia Southern „ club. , Ross was also feeling a bit of outside pressure before the game.

Wars are not won by individuals or individual behav­ ior. Wars are won by group activity and unit cohesion. Who knows what's best for the military? General Colin Powell, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff? Or are we going to look to Bill Clinton, Pat Schroeder and Jane Fonda; one of whom evaded the draft while the other two participated in Vietnam, simply on the wrong side. I am a disabled American veteran. I served as a cavalry scout in the United States Army. I know from first hand experience that military life is not compat­ ible with homosexuality. First, let me say that the military is a selective service. The military has the right to discriminate against anyone it deems unfit for its mission. It discriminates against people who are physically dis­ abled, fat, skinny, tall, short, nearsighted, flat footed or have personality disorders, etc. No American citizen has a constitutional right to be in the military. A soldier forfeits the luxuries of privacy and free expression that civilians enjoy. Conformity is essen­ tial. Every soldier must have his head shaved. The Jewish soldier can't wear his yarmulke. The Muslim cannot drop out of formation to pray on his knees. The military is special and unlike any civilian institution because it alone can tell its members what to wear, say, and do twenty-four hours a day. No one's civil rights trump national security interests. National security is the one thing that always justifies prior restraint. There was only one reason why the United States military defeated the world's fourth largest army in just three days. It was order, discipline and morale. Morale was the difference between the victorious Americans and the demoralized Iraqis wandering in Appalachian may soon lose one of the most valuable educational opportunis the university has to offer. This March, the university must decide whether renew its lease on The Loft in New York. If the contract is not renewed, ASU " likely lose The Loft forever. The university does not operate The Loft to make money; instead, The Loft ves students the opportunity to participate in the culture offered by the :ers, museums, symphonies and exhibits in New York. Without The Loft, st students could not afford a trip to New York. The high price of motel s in thecity would force many students to stay home, whereas the $ 18 The ft charges for one night makes it possible for students to get a clean, fortable and safe room without taking out a loan. Appalachian undergrads are not the only ones who benefit from The Loft fessors and graduate students stay in The Loft while doing research, "izing the more extensive libraries found in larger cities. Without The Loft The App House in Washington D.C. many professors would have to verely limit their research options. The App House and The Loft are considered satellite campuses of ASU. In don to offering professors and graduate students opportunities for exi research, some classes are held in The Loft. Dr. Larry Keeter offers a called The City asText where the studentsare exposed to various aspects New York and expected to respond to them.

The removal of this element not only diminishes the integrity of the art work but also the integrity of our community. The person(s) involved are asked to return the sign to either the Art Department in Wey Hall or the Catherine Smith Gallery. No questions will be asked. However, failure to have this issue resolved in a timely fashion will force the gallery to vigorously pursue those respon­ sible for the crime through all means at our disposal.

This is the primary soldiers will die as a result When push comes to reason that male and female soldiers live in separate shove, the reason a unit accomplishes its mission is quarters.

What behavioral characteristic is more housing behind one of the new homosexual domestic partnerships? Does this mean we're going to let a fundamental than sexual identity?

I genetic like race. There is nothing wrong with being shudder to think what it will mean when we extend black. Conversely, a majority of Americans have special rights to the other sexually perverse deviants. good reason to view homosexuality as unnatural, Are we going to recognize the special rights of immoral, abnormal or even an abomination in the eyes pedophiles, necrophiliacs, those people who practice beastiality? Where will it end? of almighty God. It isnot an exaggeration tosay that America is in the The military does not exist for purposes of social experimentation. The military is charged with the midst of a cultural war. A call to arms has been issued defense of this nation's security. Even the proponents to those God fearing Americans who still know the of homosexual rights concede that most Americans difference between right and wrong. I'm 33 years old, not thirteen. I served in the U. S. Army as a journalist, which required a little more than average intelligence. It isn't difficult to understand most of the university's policies. However, the policy regarding parking on campus is (at least) vague. I work two jobs at the university. Although my hours are limited, I must still report to work on time. I live off campus, but not too far away. It isn't a problem for me to walk or take the Appalcart. However, when the weather is not cooperative, I simply DO NOT want to walk. I work as a cook's aid at the Gold Room located in the student union. I hardly believe it is appropriate for me to show up soaked from the rain. The other job I perform is copy editor for The Appalachian. It would not seem professional for me to appear before my co-workers dripping with water. I feel that any student who performs a service for the university should have a place to park near their jobs, especially those students who live off campus. Why does the current policy FORCE us to pay if we want a place to park? If the students didn't get involved with the various functions of the university, who would do them? The university would have to hire "real" employees at much higher rates (think of that, you members of the board). Now, let's turn back to my question. I'll tell you why. MONEY! It's as simple as that. I just recently discovered my co-workers at the Gold Room (regular full-time employees) also have to pay the $70 parking fee, and then must search for a place to park. The faculty and staff also pay the fee. I just about gave up all hope for salvatioa It was the first time in my life I ever heard of an employer charging its employees to come to work. What the hell is going on here? Another problem that concerns me is the number of people who get away with parking where they don't belong. I guess I just don't know the right people. I have seen several incidents where people don't get tickets only because they knew "the ticket giver." The people who park in the handicapped zones are the ones who anger me the most. One of these days those people may need the zone and someone (who doesn't) may be parked there. "What goes around comes around." And how about those idiots who park beside the post office and generate needless traffic jams? I haven't seen any tickets on their windshields (I forgot; they have their blinkers on). Think of the revenue which the parking situation brings into the college. Over 5,000 students and almost 1,500 faculty and staff members pay the fee. You don't have to be an Einstein to figure at $70 a pop, plus tickets and fines, the university hauls in over $400,000 a year in fees. The big question is, "where does this money go?" It goes to sidewalk and road repairs, surveillance equipment, and compen­ sation to the security employees. Those are all good area of expendi­ ture, but come on, $400,000 a year! I think the university should consider building parking decks and add more parking soon. The money ASU students pay to park should be used to further the needs of the students. What do you think? Robert Williams Box 6883 Gays do not belong in the armed forces Clinton doesn't plan to implement a ban on questioning sexual orientation. He did — last week. Now let's get to the heart of the issue. The servicemen are not, as Robertson stated, members of a democracy; therefore, it is not a necessity for the rights of homosexu­ als to be considered in the service as they are in society. The military is not a social institution that promotes individuality. It is instead an organi­ zation which has found that the loss of individuality in a combat or combat related environment promotes * unity and togetherness which will spare lives in the long run. If homosexuals were permitted to join the military and expose their sexual preference, then not only would the sense of togetherness be lost but the homosexuals would also be in danger. Look at the violence that has surfaced as a result of simply changing the recruitment question­ naire. An admitted homosexual was beaten so severely by other service­ men that he was identified only by his tattoos. There would be an increased expense to the defense budget (which everyone claims is too high to begin with), for it would become almost mandatory to have separate barracks or at least additional shower facilities.

The outdoor section that lizedmulLi-colored woodensigns was noved after pieces of the work were ;en from campus. A wooden sign with the words BE jd SAME was taken from its place uar ihc Broyhill Music Center two Leks ago. The artist requested The lord Project piece be taken down after [other sign was removed. [Director of theCatherine SmithGalery Terry Suhre feels that the theft of he sign was probably a prank by somelc who didn't realize the intent of the iwork or the seriousness of the larny act. "The intention of the artist in the [eation and careful placement of The lord Project was for the purpose of stimulating inquiry and thought," wrote luhre in a letter to The Appalachian. Juhre continued to point out that the jheft of the piece diminishes the integ- rity of both the artwork and the commu­ nity. As a result of the theft, the university is in the process of negotiating a com­ pensation for the artist for his stolen work. The piece was not owned by the university, but on loan from the artist for the exhibit. The Word Project is an example of a contemporary American trend thatuses the environment to display art and pro­ voke thought. Appalachian, however, may not be the site of future outdoor art projects like Waterbury's. "We probably will not pursuesimilar artworks," said Suhre. The Gallery cannot guarantee to the artist the safety of outdoor structures and artworks. "Our campus and com­ munity is no different from others. We have the same risk of vandalism," said Suhre. Vandalism has been a part of the Rose? Sculpture Display, but not to the degree of theft, added Suhre. Though the sculptures are victims to vandals, the university has been able to remove See ART page 2 ART REMOVED: A piece of The Word Project, photographed here by the artict Johnathan Waterbury at Wake Forest University, was taken from the Appalachian exhibit. As a result, Waterbury requested the outdoor artwork be taken down. Liberal Arts Week held Chase researches alcohol laws J" ~ ** By JONATHAN WATTERSON Copy Editor If | The controversy surrounding Inuary's Liquor-By-The-Drink referfldum uncovered for Boone residents I tangled web of politics concerning phol distribution. Now Saul Chase, tic town council member who introiced the referendum bill, is attemptg to pick through that web and make use of it. Chase is in the process of a searching mission to discover the fron­ ts of alcohol control between the and the state. "It appears, as I leam more about tthol legislation, that the city has B' little control (over distribution)," id Chase. For example, the state rearcs that businesses selling alcohol, eh as grocery stores, be allowed to [y open until 2 a.m. Chase considers 'spolicy not severe enough. Also, the rrent brown-bagging policy, which lows people of age to carry liquor into staurants, cannot be modified by the *n. This imbalance of power, according to Chase, is unnecessary. He stated, "The state's control over alcohol is excessive, and it is not necessarily ad­ vantageous (to the town). Different places have different needs." Laws ap­ propriate for Boone might not beneeded in a place like Charlotte, he said. Chase confirmed that this research is a reaction to the LBTD debate. The issue of alcohol control in general came up in town council after the referen­ dum. Somecouncil members,however, were simply tired of discussing alcohol after that seemingly endless contro­ versy. Since Chase introduced the LBTD issue, he agreed to handle the research. His goal is to educate the council and the public about the juris­ diction of alcohol laws. The referendum may have lost be­ cause of its state-mandated wording, according to Chase. "I think the refer­ endum lost because of two words: 'pri­ vate clubs,"' said Chase. The town coun­ cil was not allowed to modify the refer­ endum to apply only to restaurants. Thus, fear of private clubs and factors associated with them, such as public drunkenness, were a major issue ad­ dressed by the opponents of LBTD. One of the most feared prospects which concerned LBTDopposition was topless bars. Ironically, according to Chase, some evidence shows that inci­ dence of nude entertainment has little to do with liquor by the drink. According to Chase, the toplessness issue is one alcohol-related area over which thetown may have some control. There exists a broad-ranged obscenity .ordinance in Boone with a clause cov­ ering "commercial nudity." It has not been determined whether this law can legally prevent toplessclubs from open­ ing, but if it cannot, a more specific bill can be proposed. Sucha bill, said Chase, would only cover commercial nude entertainment. In contrast, Chase is making no ef­ fort to address another worry of LBTD opponents —the possible influx of chain restaurants.

Young, who is director of the Paul Roberson Cultural Center at Pennsyl­ vania State University, discussed and remembered the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He used examples of prominent African-Americans such as Arthur Ashe, Maya Angelou, and Thurgood Marshall who receive little recognition for their part in American history. 'Thou shall know the truth," Young told the audience after describ­ ing the people. Remembering the struggle is essen­ tial to remembering the dream, said Young. "If there is no struggle, there is no prog'ess," explained Young. He emphasized that black students must work hard for what they want?or they will receive nothing. Youngalso pointed out that black Americans must know their roots and be proud of them.

Junior Michelle Beddingfield returned to her Plymouth Trace apartment Monday afternoon to find her first floor home in flames. Boone Fire Chief Reggie hassler said the department received the call from Plymouth Trace apartment complex at 2:37 p.m. After firemen extinguished theblaze, further assessment of the scene proved the fire to be accidental in nature. The cause is believed to be an electric blan­ ket left folded on the bed. Elements were apparently compressed inthe blan­ ket which lead to the ignition of the sunrounding sheets and covers. Structural damage to the apartment amounted to $15,000 in addition to $7,500 in property damage. Beddingfield who has returned to her family's residence in Southern Pines was unable to be reached for comment. Plymouth Trace apartments are located at 117 Oak Street across from Hoey residence hall.

They've already planned > travel distant places to see boyfriends or ttfriends, or go home to celebrate with Some of the nation's most exciting summer theatre employmentopportunities exist far from the major population centers. They are with the country's outdoor historical dramas. From JOURNEY TO THE PACIFIC in Seaside, Or­ egon, to THE LOST COLONY on Roanoke Island, North Carolina, these original plays, based on actual events and performed where the events took place, now number more than 90 nationwide. Each summer, some 4,500 actors, singers, dancers and technicians, most of whom are college or university students, find jobs in outdoor drama. On Saturday, March 20, eleven outdoor his­ torical dramas from five states will be on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill auditioning college and university student performers and technicians for summer jobs. The auditions,sponsored by the Institute of Outdoor Drama, are open to anyone at least 18 years of age with previous theatre training or experience. Outdoor historical drama is rich in opportuni­ ties, for performer and technician alike, to hone special skills. Stunt and combat professionals train and rehearse actors whose safety depends on intense concentration, meticulous blocking, and rigorous rehearsal. Pyrotechnicians, artifi­ cers trained to handle period weaponry and explosives, horseback riders and wranglers, fight directors, historians and speech consultants are among those contributing special expertise to productions. The design, installation and main­ tenance of sophisticated equipment for sound, voice reinforcement, special effects, and light­ ing all require skilled staff and state-of-the-art technology. The ranks of the superstars who started their show-biz careers inoutdoor drama include Andy GriffithJThe Lost Colony, NC), Denzel Wash­ ington (Wings of the Morning, MD), Kathleen Turner (We, The People,MD) and Goldie Hawn When I was younger, Valentine's Day around j iy house was almost like Christmas day. In some outdoor dramas, the setting itself plays a major role. At the Waterside Theatre on Roanoke Island in North Carolina, the audience at THE LOST COLONY looks over the stage and out to sea, watching with the actorsfor ships from England. At Ohio's TRUMPET IN THE LAND, the church is set ablaze; and in TECUMSEH! battle scenes are staged onhorseback in the surrounding forest. Employment for students in anoutdoor drama requires a 9 to 12-week commitment, including two weeks of rehearsal and 8-10 weeks of per­ formances. Companies may offer additional productions, experimental theatre and work­ shops, children's theatreproductions and college credit programs. Some of the major companies offer subsidized or paid housing, or will assist in locating housing for company members. Actors present a one-minute prepared mono­ logue, and may be asked to perform another at callback interviews. Singers prepare one song, with a one-minute time limit. Dancers are led through warmup, assorted combinations, and across-the-floor routines using ballet, modem, and folk choreography. Technicians are inter­ viewed in the afternoon. As of mid-January, the following outdoor historical dramas plan to attend: •ELIZABETH II HISTORIC SITE (Manteo, NC) •HORN IN THE WEST (Boone, NC) •THE LEGEND DANIEL BOONE (Harrodsburg^KY) •THE LOST COLONY (Manteo, NC) See OUTDOOR page 6 OUTDOOR DRAMA TRY-OUTS: Looking for a summer job?

Competing for the attention of the audience with tree frogs, heat lightning, and that bane of the outdoor theatre, the sudden summer storm, are all part of a night 's work! The outdoor setting also poses a unique set of technical problems for which imaginative, creative solu­ tions must be found. The National Theatre of the Deaf sheds new light on one of Shakespeare's most mysterious and compelling characters. Obie award-winning playwright Jeff Wanshel cre­ ated the play withdirectors Will Rhysand Robbie Bamett (of Pilibolus Dance Theatre) under the artistic direction of Daniel Hays and Julianna Field. The production takes Ophelia, a minor char­ acter from "Hamlet," and places her on center stage. Removed from the male confines and conventions in "Hamlet," she is able to explore a world beyond thenarrow hallsof Elsinore. The play combines superb acting with unique char­ acter studies, illuminatingShakespeare's brilliant language into three dimensions. The National Theatre of the Deaf received a Tony Award for Theatrical Excellence in 1977 and the Connecticut Commission on the Arts Award in 1979, and was selected to perform at the Los Angeles Olympic Arts Festival in 1984. The company toured the People's Republic of China in 1986 and was the only U.S.company to perform at the first Tokyo International Theatre Festival in 1988. The company has made 27 foreign tours, given more than 6,000 performances, and is the only professional the­ atre company to have performed in all 50 states. Their performance is made possible in part by contributions from the Southern Arts Federa­ tion, the National Endowment for the Arts and the North Carolina Arts Council. ;al i ze a ' lTi Need a summer job?

Camps love to come here and recruit, not just students majoring inrecreation and outdoor pro­ grams, but those majoring in business and biol­ ogy." For anyone interested in attending a summer camp, the fair is the perfect time to scout forone. "The camp directors welcome the opportunity to meet potential campers and parents. Any camp you can imagine will be there," said Binning. "When choosing a summer camp, it's impor­ tant to consider a child's personality, interests and needs," according to Binning.

While their pampered, millionaire, tjor-league counterparts prepare for ! season in the tropical climes of rizona and Florida, Appalachian ite's baseball team has conducted sir "spring training" in the frigid baseill winterlands of Boone, N.C. Coach Jim Morris is openly optimisabout his team's chances for imivement. That improvement is quite ;ely, since last year's injury riddled taineers limped to a 17-34 record, 14 in the Southern Conference. This will be a very young team, with newcomers to the ASU program, ever, it is an extremely talented p ("the best we've had in years," Morris), which combined with 12 lining lettermen should produce le pleasantly surprising results. The pitching staff lost over half of its ings pitched from last year. Starting ies will beheld by junior righthander Vullo (fastball in the mid-80's, Icellent split-fingered fastball), junGary Davis ("a very strong arm," Morris), seniorDaveGonsiorowski hard slider, good change-up), a pair of freshmen, lefty Scott Ausgrave (all-state NC last year) and ife/it/iandcr Garth Armstrong (strong fxing arm from Florida).

The Golden Eagles, of the Ohio Val­ ley Conference, got 33 points from se­ nior forward John Best and 20 from junior guard Maurice Houston in the win. Rob West, who came into the game averaging 28.3, added 19 points in front of 2,700 fans at the Elben Cen­ ter in Cookcville, Tennessee. The Mountaineers led by as many as 14 points in the first half and held a 3221 advantage with 6:55 remaining be­ fore intermission. West scored 11 points in the next four minutes to lead the Golden Eagles on a 19-6 spurt and a two point advantage. Tennessee Tech led 47-46 at the break. "We came out and played really well in the first half," said Appalachian as­ sistant coach George Morrow."We just had a couple of key turnovers and some missed assignments on transition de­ fense during that stretch." The Apps regained the lead at 52-51 with 17:44 remaining toplay, but lost it for good when Houston converted a reverse-layup at the 14:45 mark. Junior point guard Jeff Williams scored 16 points for the Mountaineers as did Chad McClendon. McClendon also pulled down 13 boards for his sixth double-double of the sea­ son. William Cook played well for the second straight game and added 14 points for ASU while Ricky Nedd chipped in ten in the balanced attack. "We, as a coaching staff, are really excited about the way we have been playing," said Morrow. "Our situation is that we need to tighten up on defense and just continue to play as well as we have been." The Mountaineers, now 11-10 over­ all and 7-6 in the SC, will get their chance again on Saturday as they host The Citadel. When the Apps and the Bulldogs last met, the Mountaineers claimed a 69-53 victory. Georgia Southern, who defeated Appalachian 103-76 in the first half of the conference schedule, comes to Boone on Sunday for the home sched­ ule finale. Alabama's Lady Crimson Tide rolls over Lady Apps, 94-64 ^dy Mountaineer players Angela Crosby, Regina Ikard and Beth Kilby score in double figures in losing effort y SHANNON McGINNIS Wf Writer The AppalachianState women's bas­ eball team lost to the University of labama on Feb. 8, 94-64. At the end of the first half, AppalaNt trailed Alabama 52-33. Paula Crowe described the game, "The score was pretty bad. It got out of hand at the end of the game." Junior forward Angie Crosby was the leading scorer for ASU with 21 points. Senior forward Regina Ikard followed close behind with 16 points. Sophomore guard Beth Kilby scored 10 points. The high rcbounder of the game for ASU was Ikard with four. High assists for Appalachian be­ longed to freshman guard Shannon Spencer with three assists. Crosby had the most field goals with eight attempted and seven successful. In spite of their loss, most of the team was pleased with their performance against the highly competitive Crim­ son Tide. Senior guard Sheryl Lynch com­ mented, "It was a good experience." According to Lynch, the team had "Nothing to lose and everything togain" against Alabama. Senior forward Paula Crowe agreed. "It (the loss) won't hurt us conference- wise. Many of the team members also feel that playing Alabama will have direct effects on the upcoming game against Marshall. "They (Alabama) are probably the best full court team we've played," commented Lynch. Good full court playing is also evi­ denced by Marshall. ASU Head Coach Linda Robinson also commented on the upcoming game. "The experience of playing such a pressure team (Alabama) will also help us against Marshall." ASU will entertain Marshall's Lady Thundering Herd this Saturday in a contest that begins at 1 p.m. ntramural hot shot winners declared yLYDlA CRAVER P°rts Editor 'Palachian State's intramural de­ cent held the basketball hot shot :st on Feb. 4.

Closing for the Mountaineers will be junior south­ paw Steve Bronack (good location, keeps ball down), and righthanders Johnny McCraw and Trent Suggs, both hard throwers. Morris says the team will miss the contributions of freshman Will Reeves, who will undergo arthroscopic surgery on Wednesday. Morris says the biggest challenge for his pitchers will be mental. "With our tough schedule early, I worry about the confidence of our young guys. Our first road trip (which lasts nearly a month and features visits to perennial powers Florida State, Clemson and North Caro­ lina) will be a good barometer of how these guys can pitch." The catching is the most solid in years, ledby 1992 all-Southern Confer­ ence and 1993 pre-season all-SCselec­ tion Randy DeBruhl. DeBruhl has im­ pressed pro scouts with his strong arm, running, and leadership abilities. Sophomore Scott McDamel can also catch, and will see playing time at DH and the outfield. Both have good bats and can provide power in the middle of the lineup. Morris is also pleased to have landed two promising freshman catchers, Danny Allard and Shane Owenby. "Both these guys could have gone elsewhereand started this year, so I'm ecstatic tohave them," said Morris. Both show good offensive skills and may earn playing time elsewhere in the lineup. The outfield is also solid for the Mountaineers. Junior Will Shellman, the leading returning hitter from last year (.322 avg.) gets the nod in center field. Senior Johnny McCraw ( a tre­ mendous power hitter who was redshirted last year) will play in left when not called on to pitch, and sopho­ more John Bonner will get the call in right. Juco transfer Rich Livolsi, a good bat handler and runner, will also see significant playing time. The infieldis the areain which Moms expects to see the most improvement. Brent Cardwell will get the chance to start at first base due to his strong per­ formance at the end of last year. Sec- ond base will be covered by sophomore Jody Boyles, a good bat handler and bunter who is also very solid defen­ sively. Ryan Cox, who missed last season due to injury, is back and will start at third. Transfer Ed Ewasko is penciled in to start at shortstop. Trent Suggs (2B/SS), Kenny Osborne (IB), and Rick Ammons (utility) provide good insurance in case of injuries. Morris sounds genuinely excited when he talks about his offense. "We have a lot of good bat handlers at the top and bottom of our lineup, we also have some good power in the middle with McCraw, Cardwell, DeBfuhl and Bonner." Morris' main concern is that the tough early schedule will affect his team's confidence. "Ushittingtheroadtoplay Florida State, Clemson, South Carolina andNorthCarolina before our first home game would be like Coach Apke begin­ ning the season with Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, Indiana, NorthCarolina and Michigan—all on the road." This team should be an exciting one to watch. After a early schedule that only the Houston Astros could fully appreciate, the team will return home Saturday, March 13 for a doubleheader with Southern Conference foe Davidson. Everyone should take the opportunity to go see the team in ac­ tion; come March, they will deserve all the support they can get.

Maybe in the future we should only accept artwork that is firmly try, yet now they occupy prominent places in society ^ to the ground. (that isn't to say equal places in society). Despite their that only states can vote in Congress. These places do not even pay federal taxes! Not surprisingly, all five representatives are Democrats. Look at the unfair treatment of President Bush by the press during the campaign. The media talked glumly of how this was the worst economy in fifty years. Then, suddenly and within 24hours of Clinton's victory, NBC, ABC, CBS, and CNN declared that not only was the recession over, but that it had been over since March of 1991. Why, we just had the best holiday season in 4 years. I even saw a headline in a December edition of the New York Times that read "Clinton recovery strong so far." Wasn't Clinton inaugurated only a few days ago, in January? He hadn' t even been in office and he was a lready America's savior. Unemployment is down, inflation is down, housing starts are up, GNP is up dramatically, con­ sumer confidence is up and retail sales are up—all thanks to Clinton. Isn't it wonderful? I never really believed that there was a media conspiracy to cover up the good economic news. Lately, though, I have been becoming suspicious. In the last two months I have seen five front page stories (three in the Charlotte Observer, one in USA Today, and one in Newsweek) andseven editorial stories (two in theCharlotte Observer, one in Time, two in theNew York Times, one in the Watauga Democrat, and one in USA Today) on how there was no press cover-up. Seems fishy to me, all of the trouble being gone through to show there was nothing going on. We all heard about how Bush yielded to special interests and never changed. What has Clinton done thus far? Remember that he said his cabinet was going to "look like America." At first he looked out over America and obviously saw a bunchof old whiteguys. Then he got pressure from women's groups on how not enough women were inhis cabinet. Twodays later (by coincidence I'm sure), three women were ap­ pointed. Also, Clinton campaigned on change. Out of the blue there were four former Carter aides in the cabinet. This doesn't make me feel real secure. There was also former Admiral William Crowe, who campaigned for Clinton becausehe was"the best man for the job." How many of you out there have heard the press mention that Crowe now occupies a newly created government position? Then there was the economic conference in Little Rock that Clinton heldright after the election. He said he'd produce a solid plan. Excuse me, but didn't he have a plan before theelection, oris that now nogood? Bush was scrutinized for a month for his education conference because he was supposed to have a plan before coming to power. Clinton whines that the deficit is bigger than first estimated, despite that it is still $10 billion below the figures he predicted in his proposal. Senator Bob Packwood received tonsof press about the allegations of sexual harassment, as he should have. These were very well-documented and substan­ tiated claims, and he should have been kicked out of the Senate. Clarence Thomas is still getting coverage over allegations that most Americans believe were falsely made, thanks to Anita Hill's inconsistent testi­ mony. But what about Senator Ted Kennedy? This is a man who could write books on sexual harassment and how to get away with it. But thepressquietly looks the other way. We all know that the Willie Horton advertisement in the 1988 campaign was race baiting and was big­ otry. We never hear that Willie Horton killed a man and rapedhis wife as the man watched while he was on furlough. We also don't hear that the first person to bring up Willie Horton was then presidential candi­ date A1 Gore in the New York primary. I'm not asking the American public to shun Repub­ lican mistakes, for there are many out there. However, I would like the same treatment be given to Democrats as is given to Republicans. They are far from virtuous. Homosexuals are already in the military Why are we so afraid of the possibility of what is, in fact, reality?* THE FAR SIDE By GARY LARSON 5-Z | © '991 Umvtftti Pf»$« SyndKlM WELCOME ZIPPER CC success, the news airs tales of urban violence night after night, while the successful black man receives nothing close to that kind of coverage. No one cares when people arejust doing theirjobs, whether they are white or black. But blacks and other minorities have made advancing strides in America, overcoming mon­ strous ordeals. Now thehomosexual community faces those same ordeals: segregation, persecution, vio­ lence, distrust and lack of understanding. Because of the current controversy over integrating homosexuals into the military, people are suddenly expressing their opinions and passing judgement. Do these people, especially those making the most violent and aggressive stands against lifting the military ban, even know any homosexuals? Probably they know several, but aren't aware of it. The other men and women whom they trusted their backs to in the Gulf War will openly declare their homosexuality. Will they maintain their anti-gay stance even after a homo­ sexual has proven his or her worth in battle? Would the average person remain biased if they found they had been friends with a closet homosexual for years? The question has to be explored by those to whom it applies. Homosexuals have also proven their worth in society. They live everywhere, in and out of the closet, paying taxes, raising families, working civilian and military jobs just like everyone else. The opponents of lifting the ban say that doing so will disrupt the morale and efficiency of the aimed forces. It is already plain that homosexuals can do any job equal to a straight and they're already in the military, so what's the problem? The problem is this: the homosexuals are not disrupting anything, the straights who discriminate against them are. Why is that a homosexual can do a job, but a straight can't work with one? Reasons given by straights typically run along a narrow path, but it all comes down to fear. A straight is scared what their friends will think, what God will think and what they, might think to themselves. But others have already overcome those fears and survived. It isn't a question of how to accept homosexuals, but when. A straight understanding his or her fear, overcoming it, learning that people's personal lives are their own, and living and working alongside those that are different from oneself go a long way in making an inevitable transition easier. To bar a straight from military service because he might favor kinky sex practices with his wife would not stand because of privacy laws. To exclude a minority from service based on race would violate civil rights laws. The same standards should be ap­ plied togays and lesbians. It is so easy to turn the tables on those persecuting homosexuals that it is short sighted of them to raise such a furor when the sights may be on them one day for promoting discrimination against a group of people who want to be treated with respect while living on the same planet as the rest of us, and who have earned their place in the military by simply enlisting like anyone else. illiltllis v.-VHCHSBBSS Andre Kole did not have a hidden agenda To the Editor: "Walt a minute, friends ... Frank Stevens in marketing — you all know Frank — has just handed me a note ..." This is concerning a commentary piece in the Jan. 28 edition of The Appalachian ("Illusionist: Kole's arguments weak"). A response to a performance was ihade that I feel was remarkably one-sided and weak. The performance in question was that of Andre Kole, a world-renowned illusionist and investigator of psychic phenomena. In the piece, Assistant Commentary Editor Brian Winkler outlines how he received a flyer in the mail advertising the show, and noted the fact that the Campus Crusade for Christ was sponsoring the program. Mr. Winkler .obtained tickets to the performance despite this, and was dismayed to leam that a portion of the program was of a Christian nature. Add to this the fact that Kole also performed illusions which seem to disprove the very basis for the "New Age" religions, and Mr. Winkler was ready to leave. He stated, "I didn't care what good tricks I was going to be missing, I decided that in order for me not to lose my cool, I would have to be one of the people who would have to leave during the 15 minute intermission." Correct me if I'm wrong but, Campus Crusade for Christ is known for it's support of positive Christian entertainment, and the flyer's banner line read "Andre Kole Challenges and Exposes The Mysteries of the New Age." Kole performed a show filled with some of the most spectacular illusions in the world today. He made it a point to state that everything he did was of a natural nature, and mimicked the "powers that New Age religions claim we can attain through reincarnation." Kole stated that he provides the 15minute intermission for people like Mr. Winkler "who don't feel comfortable with the spiritual portion of the program." In stating this fact Kole attempted to explain that if New Age phenomena existed, he was willing to both endorse and pay anyone who could legitimately demonstrate such phenomena. Mr. Winkler affectionately called this explanation a "mini-spiel" which caused him to "lose [his] cool". Mr. Winkler suggested that future publicity flyers for Andre Kole carry the following warning label: "Warn­ ing: The advertised show will contain one-sided arguments based upon unsound logic and erroneous suppositions in attempt to further the beliefs of Christianity. Any person lacking finely honed critical thinking skills should attend only with extreme caution, lest brainwashing may occur." The question I wish to put to Mr. Winkler is that if he knew that the performance was sponsored by a Christian organization, and would show a magician's point of view toward "New Age" religions, why would he attend in the first place? Besides, as Mr. Winkler suggested "Any person lacking finely honed thinking skills should attend only with extreme caution." Very well, Mr. Winkler, consider yourself warned. Joseph Daniels ASU Box 11928 Full story needs told in assault To the Editor: I was both appalled and disgusted to read in your Jan. 28 issue about the homosexual student who attempted to fabricate a hate crime under the guise of gay bashing ("Student Assaulted"). Apparently, this student thought he could take advantage of the rampant homosexist sentiment on this campus. The police report indicates that this student made unwanted sexual advances and physically molested an innocent patron at Savannah Joe's before he was subsequently assaulted by the genuine victim. Thankfully, the Boone Police Department and youreditorial staff were not hoodwinked by this perverted bugger's charade. Keep up the good work!

Robbins noted that "we must make sure that the 10-inch concrete slab pool bottom is safe from a structural standpoint." Prior to last Christmas the windows in Broome-kirk blew into the pool leaving shattered glass in the water. The pool was subsequently drained and the glass removed.

The Appalachian student body includes496 African-American students, approximately 4 percent of the whole student body. There are seven AfricanAmerican faculty and 21 staff mem­ bers. "Black History Month will encour­ age the self-esteem of African-Ameri­ can students. In the news, we hear very few positive things about our culture. Many limes students never learn about contributions of their culture. For one month, they get to hear good things about their community," Fleming said.

An AIDS task force has set up a satellite office in Boone. The office is a result of a rising demand for service outside of the main office in Forsyth County. The AIDS task forceout of WinstonSalem is a support organization for those infected. Established in 1985, the organization exists to provide aware­ ness for the community and services to those who need them. Monica Ferguson, Mountain Area Coordinator, is the one full time mem­ ber of the satellite organization located on the third floor of the First Baptist Church. Monica works with a group of about 15 volunteers headed by Brian Dew, a graduate student in counseling at ASU. The AIDS task force provides educa­ tion, transportation, lecture and finan­ cial services to all those in need in Watauga and Avery Counties. The task force provides services to about 10 people at present and all is held in a confidential and professional manner. "The task force is committed to edu­ cating the community about AIDS and precautions that will lessen its dangers" according to a statement of purposes. "In a community where you have a college or university the risks of trans­ mission would be significantly higher due to sleeping patterns of the stu­ dents." said Ferguson. An estimated 10 to 12 million people are infected with HIV worldwide. Or­ ganizations have been set up around North Carolina to offer support and education for the twenty thousand North Carolinians infected. The AIDS task force has been active ever since their arrival in Boone with the sponsorship of World Wide AIDS day on Dec. 1 and the red ribbon project which raised over $300 for AIDS. This year the AIDS awareness week is from April 26-30. The center uses a system of one on one counseling that is called the"Buddy System" where one councelor is paired up with someone who needs help or just See AIDS page 2 138 applications/ nominations received by committee ^ with only one vote against the mmendation.

See PHRASE page 2 By SUZI LANDIS News Editor The Chancellor Search Committee has received 138 applications and/or nominations for the Appalachian Chan­ cellor position. The committee met Fri­ day to discuss applicants and to move forward with the screening process. Since the applications have been sub­ mitted, the committee must now nar­ row down the selection to the most qualified persons. Student Govern­ ment President Dan Gurley said the applications represented a diverse geo­ graphical, employment andeducational background. Gurley said he expects a large group of applicants will be re­ moved in the first round of screening because of qualifications. Search Committe Chairman Tom Chandler says the screening process will last several months.. Eventually, the committee will submit two names to UNC President C.D. Spangler. Spanglcr will then recommend one name for the position of Appalachian State Chancellor to the UNC Board of Governors.

Students and non-students join pro­ fessors of the art/history and popular culture/sociology departments of Ap­ palachian from May 20 to June 18 at Franklin College in Lugano. "You just can't beat it," said Dr. Larry Keeter, one of the sociology pro­ fessors leading the trip. "Our program was found to be the most cost efficient available." The program cost is estimated at $3,450. This includes roundtrip airfare, tutition, program-related travel in Swit­ zerland and Italy, lodging, two meals a day, a Eurail Flexipass for train travel, required insurance, a Swiss student permit, Franklin College laundry fee, and an ASU adminsitrative fee. For students who qualify, financial aid is available. Franklin is a fully accredited Ameri­ can college with campus residence halls close to academic and dining facilities. Each room provides two or three beds, a private bath and kitchen. Participants have the choice to study the art and history of the Renaisance period and how artists were affected by their environment or the popular cul­ ture in Europe with European ap­ proaches to social problems. Tentative plans for the trip include a weekend in Paris, France, followed by special trips to Florence and Rome, Italy. Half-day trips will bemade in and round Lugano during the week, and two weekends will be allotted for stu­ dents to travel Europe on their own. Twenty spaces are available for both the art and sociology departments. Many spaces have already been filled, said Keeter. Enrollment is on a first comefirst serve basis. To receive an application through the art department contact trip leader Barbara Yale-Read at 262-2255 or Dr. Ira Read at 262-2397. To participate through the sociology department con­ tract trip leader Dr. Larry Keeter or Dr. Stephen Hall at 262-2293. Davis addresses PRSSA By LARA ADAMS Staff Writer Fredrick "Mike" Davis, APR, chief of staff in the North Carolina Attorney General's Office, discussed politics and public relations to members of Public Relations Student Society of America, PRSSA, last Wednesday. Davis focussed on his role in Gover­ nor Jim Hunt's gubernatorial campaign last year. Davis headed the campaign and outlined his main objectives in the campaign to the audience. 'To win the primary big, win in the general elec­ tion, shorten length of campaign, rein­ troduce Jim Hunt to voters and not make any mistakes," were goals achieved in the campaign, said Davis. "In politics, you are always working yourself out of a job," Davis told the audience. Because his candidate won, Davis will continue towork in the North See DAVIS page 2 have a timeline to complete the pro­ cess. "I feel very good about the applica­ tions. We received a number of quali­ fied applicants both male and female," said Chandler. The committee will continue screen­ ing applicationsuntil a"workable"num­ ber is achieved for telephone interviews, according to Gurley. A workable num­ ber could be anywhere from 8 to 15 depending on the quality of the appli­ cants. Decisions on who will conduct the telephone interviews and how the interviews will be conducted are not available. Chandler said that the committee will use all available means including teleSee APPLICATIONS page 2 EPORTS _ HR! Larceny reported Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Larceny in Coltrane residence hall has caused $2900 in damages and an inoperable elevator. The control panel was removed from the Coltrane el­ evator early Thursday morning. The elevator will be down until the con­ trol panel, valued at $2900, can be replaced. An investigation is pend­ ing, said Police Captain Larry Foster. Stereo parts valued at $344 were reported taken from a Justice resi­ dence room Saturday. An unknown person entered the room through a window, police said. A female student reported an as­ sault Wednesday evening. The woman told police a white male grabbed her coat as she walked be­ tween Rankin Science and Edwin Ducan. When she pulled away, the man grabbed her coat again and asked for a light. The woman pulled away again, threatened to scream and walked to her dorm room. An inves­ tigation is pending. Two vehicles were vandalized Fri­ day. A vehicle in State Farm parking lot was struck from the top causing $150 worth of dents. Tires were cut on a vehicle in Stansbury lot causing $70 in damages. A third automobile was vandlized Saturday morning.The back passenger windows in a vehicle in South Lot were broken out with damages estimated at $120.

The search committee is scheduled to meet Thursday, Feb. 18, to continue the screening process. "The committee will not have a regular meeting time," said Gurley. Meeting times will depend on how much the committee accom­ plishes in the previous meeting. Also, because many commi ttee members live out of town, meeting times will depend on the availability of those members. "Confidentiality of the applicants for chancellor is a top priority of the com­ mittee," said Chandler. The committee is not required to give out names of applicants until the final two names are selected. The committee does not want to jeopardize an applicant's current employment position. Because of the confidentiality of the search process, the committee has been given a secure meeting place. The Broyhill Inn Alumni Suite has been converted to a office for the search committee. After appl ic ations are narrowed down and telephoneinterviews are conducted, the committee will narrow down the selection again and hold face-to-face interviews, said Gurley. Details of the interviewing process are not available at this time. Although the committee is not work­ ing with a timeline, Spangler told the committee at its first meeting that he hopes anew chancellor will be selected by July 31 when Chancellor John Tho­ mas retires. If achancellor is notelected by that time, Spangler has the authority to appoint an acting chancellor. "Our goal is to have someone ap­ proved by this summer and in place by next fall," said Chandler.

If you nt a mile in the opposite direction, you would d cow pastures, silos and deer crossing signs, n in that in-between area of not quite city girl d not quite country girl. My parents are still liting to see which way I'll lean. My parents were living in Raleigh when I was imsincemy dad was attending N.C. State.

Many of you e probably never heard of the town near called Cedar Falls. To the untrained i there's not any reason to make a real point go there. There's an old mill where a covered Ige used to be, there's a piece of land surby water that I used to walk over to and ly refer to as my island, and there's a big Victorian house high up on a hill. These can be found in almost any small town part that makes these things so special are stories behind them all.

Yet, everyone must admit, in the back of his mind, he is thinking "How much does this recycling really help the environ­ ment?'"!^ answer isif you recycle correctly itcan make a huge difference. However, In Boone, so many people are recycling incorrectly that the program may be shut down. I am not trying to discourage anyone from recy­ cling. By all means, I wish everyone would do it. If you have ever gone by the landfill in New York while trying to get to the JFK airport, you know what I mean. In 1988, glass and newspaper make up 7.5% of landfiUed municipal solid waste, and in 1990 aluminum made up 1.4% of this unrecycled landfill mass. The average American uses 176 glass containers and 364 aluminum cans per year. While people have begun to recycle more, others do not recycle at all or pay attention to what they are doing and recycle incorrectly. The above fig­ ures may not mean much until you realize that if we do not start recycling and doing it correctly, one day the dump may be your back yard. In Watauga County, there are many places to recycle. On campus outside of every residence hall, there are recycling bins for glass, aluminum cans and newspaper. Most academic buildings also have containers for aluminum cans. For those living off campus but within city limits, free weekly recycling pick-ups can be made by encour­ aging your landlord to get involved with the program. Have him/her contact General Disposal Services at 264-3689 and ask for Jamie Perrin. If you live in a house inside city limits, all that is needed to begin your free weekly pickup is your consent. The blue residential bins distributed by CDS currently accept the following items: alumi­ num and steel cans, glass bottles and containers, Appalachian Photo by Randy Rcinink RECYCLING IS NECESSARY: Junior Tamara Eller realizes how important recycling is to the white ledger paper, and newspaper. Plastics and environment. Even recycling one can makes a huge difference. cardboard arc not accepted. If you live outside city limits, Watauga County and Boone have seven container sites for recyclables. All sites listed below accept newspa per; clear, brown, and green glass; aluminum, steel, and tin cans; and corrugated cardboard. Magazines are not accepted. The seven locations are: Hom Avenue, beside Horn in the West parking lot, open 8 ajn. to 4 pro. every day; Highway 321 across from the main post office open 24 hours Monday through Friday (cardboard not accepted here); Highway 421 West in Valle Crocis, beyond Mission school; Highway 421 West, Silverstone Road.Zionville; Highway 194,1/2 mile past Green Valley School,Green Valley; Highway 321 beside Aho Road between Boone and Blowing Rock; and Highway 421, Landfill Road, beside the Nissan dealership. If you would like for more information about these locations, call Mark Combs at 2645305. Now knowing where you can recycle, please recycle correctly. Glass needs to be separated by color. Lightly tinted glass should not be placed in the clear glass containers. For example. Clearly Canadian bottles are more a blue color than clear. These bottles, along with Bacardi bottles and some Gallo bottles should be placed in the green glass container. If you have a problem distinguishing the color of the glass, please do not put it in the clear glass container. When melting mixes colored glass together, it produces off color bottles and can lead to a foaming action in the furnace. Efficient and economical mechanical systems for color separa­ tion are currently nonexistent. As a result, glass must be color separated by hand which becomes expensive and time consuming. If we do not start putting our colors together correctly, the glass recycling program could be shut down completely. Only food and glass bottles can by recycled in glass containers. Mirrors, ceramic cups and plates, crys­ tal, light bulbs, and drinking glasses cannot be recycled. If the glass is contaminated, please rinse it out. If it cannot be uncontaminated, throw it Sec RECYCLING page 4 New campus magazine keeps alumni informed By KATE HESS Assistant Et Cetera Editor Some alumni may have been surprised this January when they went to their mailboxes and saw that they had received a new magazine from Appalachian State. Instead of their regular issue of Focus newspaper, they were able to leaf through "Appalachian Today"and enjoy a wide variety of articles about current events at ASU. Appalachian Today is a new idea that was started in the beginning of January by the News Bureau on River Street. It is an updated way to get the message out about student achievements, research, and services that the university pro­ vides to a diversity of people. The new magazine is sent to students who graduated within five years, or to other alumni that contribute at least $25 to support campus activities. This magazine hasrelpaced the Focus newspaper because a reader survey showed that many of the issues were not being read com­ pletely by the people who received them. Mark Levine, Assistant VC of Public Affairs, realized two years ago that there needed to be a better way to reflect the many changes at ASU, but that it had to fall within the budget perimeters of the Focus newspaper. To do this, the fre­ quency of the magazine would have to be de­ creased as would the number of people that it reaches. The Focus paper was sent four times a year, while the new magazine will only be sent out twice a year; in January and July. Levine, along with fellow staff members, de­ termined that the alumni of five years and those contributing $25 are definitely interested in the happenings at ASU. "We have to service those people who have made a commitment to the university," said Levine. There is a smaller newsletter called "The Appalachian Update" that will be sent to the alumni or friends of ASU that do not receive the magazine. This update is sent out every Novem­ ber and also informs people about changes and events at ASU. The magazine's main goal is to reflect the central idea of ASU, which is to serve the people of North Carolina, especially Northwest N.C., with education and research. Appalachian To­ day will contain articles with major themes, articles covering sports events, changes, and everyday life at ASU. The sports articles will focus primarily on student athletes and their accomplishments both academically and athletically. These articles may be in the format of personal profiles, which will also be a section in the magazine. The first issue featured a prof,le of Dr. John Thomas in an effort to reveal more about the man behind the title of Chancellor. Some upcoming articles in the magazine may be considered controversial because they will cover subjects such as gender stereotyping and concentration camps. Each issue will also con­ tain a list of the upcoming events, including the alumni affairsevents planned, incase alumni are planning to visit the Boone/ASU area. The articles are written primarily by the News Bureau staff and members of the faculty who specialize in certain areas of knowledge. For example, the cover story of the first issue, about the Soviet Union, was written by Peter W. Petschauer, a history professor on campus. See NEW page 4 Ambler protects and teaches about the environment By KRISTINE FORREST Staff Writer Chase Ambler, a recent graduate of Appala­ chian, has found a career that most college graduates only dream about. Instread of work­ ing behind a desk dressed in a suit all day, Ambler makes his living in the wilderness. Ambler has lived in western Carolina most of his life and has always been involved with the outdoors. After graduating from ASU, he took an instructor's course at the National Outdoor Leadership School in the western part of the US. Patience and hard work paid off for Ambler, and he was offered an instructing job at NOLS. Positions for instructors are competitive; very few are actually able to work on contract with the institution. Ambler is involved with the Whitewater raft­ ing sections of the program. He had also been part of the Whitewater rafting program at the Rocky Mountain Outdoor Center. The National Outdoor Leadership School of­ fers programs in rockclimbing, camping, mountaineering, caving, and other outdoor ac­ tivities that teach people how to survive in the wilderness for an extended periodof time. "The mission of NOLS is to protect the envi­ ronment," Ambler said. "We teach people how to takocarc of the wilderness without hurting it." NOLS operates on government land, so stu­ dents generally experience the same places. However, Ambler points out that no trip is the same. Most of the locations are in the western United States, yet some programs bring students to other countries. The cross-cultural aspects of the program allow students to interact with Africanor SouthAmerican ways of life. A month-long course with NOLS costs ap­ proximately $2,000. No experience is needed to take a course. Many people who desire to be­ come instructors take a NOLS course first, yet Ambler went directly intothe instructor's course. "If you can prove yourself capable, you can go right into the instructors course," he said. Most students enjoy the NOLS experience because of the direct interaction with the envi­ ronment. While out in the wilderness, people are pushed to their own limits and don't have to deal with society. "You learn things about yourself, but it's not the mission of the course," Ambler said. "It's not contrived." Nine Inch Nails has staying power By CHRIS MARTIN Staff Writer The hard-hitting industrial band Nine Inch Nails has finally released its much anticipated follow up to it debut album "Pretty Hate Ma­ chine." It is called "Broken," and it is a worthy sophomore album for Trent Reznor, although it is much too short. "Broken" is more of an EP,or a mini LP, rather than a full length album. This is very disappointing because the new songs on "Broken" are incredible. Admittedly, I am not super familiar with Nine Inch Nails, but I know what I like, and I really like this tape. It is fast, heavy and full of powerful lyrics. "Broken" is much heavier than "Pretty Hate Machine." This new tape is more along the vein of Ministry and the Revolting Cocks, whereas Reznor's debut was a little more on the techno side. Trent Reznor has a knack for coming up with some really cool riffs, and the songs on "Bro­ ken" are no exception. The tape opens up with "Pinion" which is more or less an intro for the newest single "Wish." Although I have seen this video on MTV's Headbangers Ball, which is surprising enough, this is one of my favorite tracks from "Broken." The lyrics spin an image of hatred and bitterness towards the world. Reznor sees nothing worthwhile in the world, which is made obvious in the chorus when he sings, "Wish there was something real/ Wish there was something true/ In this world full of you." I guess whoever he wrote these words for really pissed him off. The next song is"Last," a very cool tune with a grooving riff, about how he messed up his life, and there is nothing he can do about it.

Recycling Continued from page 3 away in a regular trash can.. Contamina­ tion of any sort of recyclable causes a large portionof the total recyclables to be thrown away. On glass bottles, make sure the cap has been taken off as well. Paper labels may be left on. For newspaper and paper, do not tie them up or put them in plastic bags. Although inserts included with your newspaper can be recycled, magazines, junk mail, andshiny papercannot. Please do not put cardboard six-pack carriers with the newspaper. Because of glue, which causes a huge problem in the pro­ cess of recycling, mailing labels and sticky envelope closures need to be re­ moved from mail. If you do not want to tear or cut out these parts of paper with glue on them, do not recycle them. In the long run. they slow down the entire recy­ cling process, and a load of paper can even end up in a landfill. Post-it notes can be recycled by tearing off the sticky part before recycling. It has glue on it, re­ member? If you are really into saving our earth and wish to recycle cardboard, take it to the Horn in the west recycling center on Horn Road. Along with aluminum cans, soup and vegetable cans. Chef Boy-ar-dee cans and steel cans can be recycled. The lids are just as recyclable as the can. Remem­ ber to make sure to rinse out whatever you recycle. As for plastics, right now they are not recyclable in Boone. If you think we should begin to recycle itas well,encour­ age Boone Town Council members to support a plastic recycling program. Hopefully in the future a program will be started. Besides recycling, precycle. Stop get­ ting junk mail by writing to: Mail Preference Service. Direct Marketing Associates, 11 West 42 Street, PO.Box 3861, New York. NY 10163-3861. Give them your address and ask them to stop your name from being sold to large mail­ ing lists. Support existing recycling programs by buying recycled materials. When buying groceries, take a big cloth bag or your backpack for your groceries instead of using paper or plastic bags. If you forget your special grocery bag, re­ GIVE A HOOT! DON'T POLLUTE New cycle the plastic and paper bags at the grocery store. Buy an Appalachian mug and use it on campus as well as at places where disposable cups are used. Buy re­ chargeable batteries. Buy products in bulk. Reuse plastic zip lock bags, alumi­ num foil and cellophane. When photocopying, use both sides of the pa­ per. If you have a garden, save money by mulching and composting withgrass clip­ pings and leaves instead of synthetic fertilizers. There are other things we can stop doing. Stop buying products harmful to the environment such as aerosol hairspray. Exercise your fingers by using hairspray with a pump. Even better, stop using hairspray. Stop using plastic bags when buying loose fruit or vegetables. Last, but not least, stop buying dispos­ able products like paper plates and paper cups. Insteadof using paper napkins, buy a few cloth ones to use over and over. Every item you recycle makes a differ­ ence. In most academic buildings, I see aluminum cans in the trash becausesome­ one was too lazy to walk down the hall and throw it in the recycling bin. How much effort does it take to hold on to a can until you encounter a recycling bin? Until all of us care enough to recycle everything possible, landfills will keep being dug up and filled until one day, your back yard becomes the landfill. Start precycling and recycling today. Continued from page 3 The News Bureau staff, headed by Speed Hallman, Editor, gets together to plan each issue of the magazine and brainstorm on which faculty members could help in the upcoming issue. The staff plans to have a theme-oriented issue out next, focusing on the diversity at ASU. Mark Levine believes that the pro­ duction of the magazine shows how dedicated the staff is, for theyreceive no extra compensation for the extra effort they have put into the production. "The magazine is a tribute to the students, teachers, and administration," said Levine. Levine is very excited about the posi­ tive response that he has received about the first issue. 98 percent of the alumni that saw the magazine said favorable things about it, and Dr. Thomas is in support of it as well. If anyone is interested in obtaining a copy of the first issue of Appalachian Today, Levine says there are extra cop­ ies in his office on River Street. Call the News Bureau at 262-2092, or stop by the office. Hey "Fish Freaks" Pro Pet has added additional 200 gal freshwater fish an and an additional gallons of marine invertebrates.

ASU will rel to Tennessee Tech on Wednesday before returning home on Friday- THE APPALACHIAN TUESDAY, February 9,1993 Moccasins nip Apps, 87-85 By DARIN N. GANTT Staff Writer and PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor A frantic second-half comeback fell just short Sunday as Appalachian State lost 87-85 to Southern Conference leader Tennessee-Chattanooga. Billy Rossled theMountaineers with 39 points, 20 straight coming in the dramatic second-half surge. Chad McClendon added 17 points and 14 rebounds. The visiting Moccasins were led by senior guard Tim Brooks with 29points and 5 assists while junior guard Gary Robb added18 points and 11 rebounds. ASU led for most of the game until the 10:02 mark in thesecond half, when UTC forward Brandon Bom's threepointer gave the Moccasins a 57-55 lead which they would not relinquish. The Mountaineers drew close in the waning moments of the game due to the hot shooting hand of Ross, but they could not overcome the advantage the Moccasins had built. A three-pointer by Ross which would have tied the game at85-85 with 20 seconds remain­ ing was wide. Two subsequent free throws by Brooks pushed the UTC lead to 87-82. A 21-footer by Jeff Williams closed the gap to 87-85 with two seconds re­ maining, but, with no timeouts remain­ ing, ASU watched helplessly as UTC held the ball out of bounds as time expired, preserving the victory. The Moccasins were able to take the lead in the second half by virtue of a trick defense that slowed the Moun­ taineer attack. The box-and-one de­ fense employed by UTC was designed to slow Ross, which it did successfully in the decisive middle stages of the second half. "The box-and-one confused usearly, but my teammates did a good job of getting me the shot later in the game," said Ross. ASU Coach Tom Apke echoed Ross's assessment of the effects of the UTC defense. "We were impatient and did a lot of impulsive things with the ball as a result of their pressure," said Apke. Point guard Jeff Williams further stated ASU's troubles. "Their boxand-one disrupted our ball movement See NIP page 6 Appalachian photo by Haul Lampe ROSS SCORES 39: ASU's Billy Ross totalled 39 points this past Sunday against Tennessee-Chattanooga, but it wasn't enough as the Moccasins slipped past the Mountaineers, 87-85.

This is my next favorite track it is so powerful. The lyrics ng to mind the ignorance of racism m asatirical toungue-in-cheek fash­ ion. The title alone proves this because there is no happiness in any form of slavery, be it from a point of view of race, sex, religion or self. Reznor screams, "Don't open your eyes, you won't like what you see," which is so tnie. If people would wake up and realize what is going on in the world, then humankind mightstrive a little bit harder to make things better because they will not like what they see going on in the world around them. The final track on the tape is "Gave Up," which comes off as Reznor's conclusion to the decadance in the songs before. He sings, "Give it to me I throw it away/ After everything I've done I hate my­ self for what I've become/ I tried, I gave up/Throw it away." It is not a very positive message but very true because this is how most people deal with their problems. They feel that there is no point in trying because it will be smacked down by the hypocrisy of the bureaucrats. "Broken" was influenced by Trent Reznor's live band on the 1991 Lollapalooza tour that featured Rich­ ard Patrick, Jeff Ward and Jame Woolley. This tour brought Nine Inch Nails into the spotlight, re-vamping people's interest in "Pretty Hate Ma­ chine," even though it had already been out for over a year. Unlike many of the bands that were featured on this par­ ticular Lollalpalooza tour, I feel that NIN has made a lasting effect on the music world and will be around for a long time to come. It took me a while to gel into indus­ trial music, bu now I think it is one of the newest styles of music on the scene that is original and innovative. With bands like Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, Revolting Cocks and 1000Homo DJ's, industrial music is going tobe a force to reckon with very soon. In fact, I will go as far as saying that industrial is a sign of where music is going in the future, and the future sounds awesome.

How many of you have ever seen the photo of the Chinese youth, all by his lonesome, bringing to a halt a unit of tanks?

That appears to be what is happening now. inting names of victims and suspects of crimes has been a topic of long Military men are simply and suddenly...afraid. I Editor L antes in the news: tough decision ite in the field of journalism. Every reporter must decide where to draw the between what the public needs to know and what may be emotionally ing to those involved. This is a very personal decision and is one that is made without much consideration and debate. lercommon debate occurs over the purpose of a newspaper in reporting . Many believe that a newspaper's sole purpose is to inform. However, argue that in the process of informing, a paper should take some ures to protect the victims involved. The main way to do this, they argue, withhold the names of victims of personal crimes. Still others argue that ly by printing these names, can the social stigma associated with personal s like rape be removed. Since the printing of names has so many different aspects to consider, every tpcr mustestablish guidelines to handle various situations. Some newspapers re chosen to set up a policy regarding when to print names and when to Ihhold them. The Appalachian debating the need for such a policy, ivery story is different. The rules and guidelines that may have applied rfectly to one story may not be applicable to the next In many cases, such as e campus police logs, The Appalachian does not have access to names, and erefore, can not print them. Only when the local police become involved or xrson involved with the crime contacts the newspaper, can the paper get the itim's or accused's name. The individual reporter's discretion has just as much to do with choosing to nt names as the newspaper policy. A newspaper policy is only used as a final de in making tough decisions. Journalists are ultimately the only ones responsible for the decisions they ake. While a newspaper may have a policy of printing or not printing victims Bties, it is up to the reporter to decide how aggressively they want to pursue e story. A journalist who does not think it is right to print names can be very iccessful in this by not ever finding a name. Religious tolerance is something we need Humanity should be more human To the Editor: This is a response to the article about the student (myself) that was assualtcd (Jan. 28, "Student As­ saulted"). Unfortunately, all of the people of the world cannot understand the sexual orientation of another. It has become a war between our people. Should we accept another person's sexual orientation or should we repress it? The answer lies on our faith in the human race. • I am personally upset by this incident. I am also appalled by the motions carried out by the Boone Police Department. Falsehoods are generally a sign of ignorance and lack of self-respect. How can we consider ourselves "above" someone else? Is it not faith that brings man together? All people of the world need to form a unification of humanity. If not, we will repress ourselves back into the "closet." beginning this year, The Appalachian now has access to the campus police me logs as a result of the passage of the Buckley Amendment. The campus lice do still maintain the right to withhold the names of students associated ith crime on campus. In addition to looking at the crime logs on campus.

Even worse, I have a B.A. and soon will have a M.A. from this university and I still haven't become agnostic, despite my liberal education. The Jan. 28 edition of The Appalachian contained two articles that have prompted me to write. First was Lisa Laughlin's article, "Reli­ gious Tolerance," in which she apologized for wishing readers a Merry Christmas. Then, Brian Winkler's article "Illusionist: Kole's arguments weak" referred to Kole's performance as "brainwashing." I found it funny that Ms. Laughlin was so quick to voice her support of a fellow student when he stood up and said he was Buddhist, but then was ashamed of herself for making what is, at best, a mild Christian aversion when she wished readers Merry Christmas. Mr. Winkler's article was even more distasteful because of his purported supposition that anyone who went to Mr. Kole's performance and believed what he said was being brainwashed and also lacked critical thinking skills. What proved more hysterical was his belief that his own arguments against Mr. Kole were supposed to be more sound. Christian students of being. How many atheists do you know who are willing to go to church or read the Bible? I know none, but wonder why they don't want to broaden their knowledge of a church system they so adamantly oppose. How often do they condemn people with strong beliefs for making broad generalizations about a particular issue or group but turn around and heap these same generalizations against Christians? I find it almost funny that he does not consider his own philosophical agnosticism to be the product of the same brainwashing process that he condemned. He has fallen to the objective, open-minded conscious­ ness of personality that now gives him a license to label a person who stands up for his Christian beliefs as a I can understand disdain for some brainwasher.

Potential campaign issue??? I think not. The committee is already formed and they are ready to begin work. As for that ludicrous editorial slating that all involved with this have "gotten sidetracked with creating an elaborate bike rack design to enhance the University's environ­ ment," all I can say is wrong, wrong, wrong!!! When this project took off, it was the primary objective to get not just more bike racks, but ones that would hold more bikes, yet not be cumbersome. That is still the focus for this project. I really don't know where you got those oddball visions of gold bike racks or ones with card readers on them but I would suggest you increase your intake of a potent drug known as reality. When anyone in the organization decides to take on a project, I always encourage them to take things in a step-by-step manner. This is a mature and logical way of going about doing things and for you to have described the attitude taken by the organization as "irresponsible and childish" was a slap in the face and leaves me infuriated. Finally, I feel that it is more than appropriate to inform everyone that I have already made the decision not to run for re-election as SGA Vice President nor for any other office in the organization. I am also not writing this in support of anyone's campaign. I am writing this letter strictly as the current Vice President of an organization that has been improperly characterized. There have been two things that I have thoroughly concentrated on while holding this position. The first thing I wanted to do was avoid, and in fact destroy, the idea that we are some sort of lapdog for the adminis­ tration. But from reading your editorial, that is what people will think about us because of the creative, yet very erroneous, writing. The second thing is to accomplish all* of the things we (Dan Gurley and myself) told you we were going to accomplish. It is important to know and understand that this organization is made up of students, here because of the students, and here to do the best for the students. This is not the Administrative Government Associa­ tion, it's the Student Government Association. And don't you forget it!

"I want to get people involved in articulating their own visions, thus cre­ ating a positivefuture," said Mankiller. She spoke of self-help combined with interdependence as a means for revitalization of her culture. Being indepen­ dent of government intervention within Cherokee society is a goal worth striv­ ing for, since the government has of­ fered no help in the past, explained Mankiller. However, housing, healthcare and further economicdevel­ opment are hard without government help. Mankiller described Cherokee youths as "our best bet" in preserving cultural identity. The young people of the nation realize the importance of their heritage and culture Mankiller said. They will be the educators of the next generation and will allow the American public to leam about the culture of the native whose culture was almost iost, added Mankiller. Diffusing negative stereotypes is es­ sential in understanding individuals and creating a nation of more openminded people. This applies not only to the treatment of Indians, but other mi­ norities as well. In understanding all people the veil must be lifted and the mind opened to acceptance, said Mankiller. .obbies closed after urniture duct taped alltlfl i to ha )AWN McGUIRE stant News Editor ram pi "» n >bbies on some floors of Frank Hall g hot® locked by residence assistants in fort to reprimand students for duct ig sixth floor lobby furniture to the >g- lier in the semester, residents of floor Frank, found their lobby itore duct taped to the ceiling.

Freshman Chad Collins, who lives on sixth floor Frank said that students on the floor had talked to the residence director, Scott Gluntz, who gave them three options for reopening the lobby. According to Collins, Gluntz, who could not be reached for comment, said that if the sixth floor residents painted their lobby, it would be reopened. The other two options were to reopen the lobby but if the hall received another collective damage the lobby would be closed permanently or to open the lobby from 7 p.m.-midnight when an RA was on duty.

Librarian addresses SGA on expansions By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor Dr. Mary Reichel, university librar­ ian, toldstudent government senate that in order to get a library expansion in 68 years, plans would need to be made now. Reichel spoke to SGA at Tuesday's senate meeting and said that due to the time framefor approval and the number of stages necessary to get funding 8 years was a reasonable estimate of when an expansion effort would be completed if it were begun now. When questioned on why it would take so long, Reichel said first you must get administrative approval, then plan­ ning money and then hire an architect firm, all of which take time. "If we started planning now, it would be some years before ground would be broken," said Reichel. "If we went as quickly as possible, it would still take at least 6 years." Reichel said she has already submitted a preliminary proposal for building needs which includes more space for collection and group study, as well as room for electronic resources. Reichel alsoaddressed collection and information resources, saying that the library might have to cancel someserial subscriptions, as the current cost of subscriptions accounts for 75 percent of the collection budget. Reichel did say that she is looking into alternatives to expand the serial collection, such as computerized jour­ nals. Reichel said she would compare the costs of a computer accessed sys­ tem with the cost of buying subscrip­ tions. When asked how our library com­ pares to others in the UNC system, Reichel said that funding is an issue. "We're never going to be a UNC at Chapel Hill or an N.C.State, the system doesn' t need another research 1ibrary," said Reichel. "But we don't have the funding that comparable universities have." Dan Gurley,president of student gov­ ernment, updated the senate on tuition increases proposed by a state auditing committee and outlined four courses of action to oppose the increase. "First we must oppose any tuition hike and make our opposition known," Gurley said. "If we come to realize there will be an increase, we most nego­ tiate for the smallest possible increase and a corresponding increase in finan­ cial aid." Gurley also said that the state should end subsidies to private college stu­ dents, which amounts to about $38 mil­ lion. According to Gurley, the state subsidizes private college student approximately $1095 and public col­ lege student approximately $6700 per year. See SGA page 2 Smokin (CPS)—The U.S. Department of Edu­ cation estimates that 16.1 million stu­ dents will be enrolled in colleges and universities by 2003, up 14 percent from 14.2 million students in 1991. At the same time a congressional commit­ tee has addressed the need to expand financial aid tocover the growing num­ ber of students reported The Charlotte Observer. The congressional committee found that financial aid is the second highest cost to family budgets. Only house and mortgage costs outrank financial aid cost. The committees proposals to in­ crease financial aid to alleviate college cost will be submitted to the Senate and then to President Clinton within the next few weeks. The enrollment projections are in­ cluded in the department's Projections of Education Statistics to 2003, which includes estimates on elementary, sec­ ondary andpostsecondary education.

Professor two-times UNC-Charlotte (CPS)—A professor of Judaic studies at the University of North CarolinaCharlotte resigned after it was discov­ ered that he was secretly holding two full-time teaching positions at two dif­ ferent universities whilereceiving sala­ ries in the amount of $146,400. Tzvee Zahavy, a nationally known Talmud scholar, was hired by UNCC last year as a result of a two-year na­ tional search to fill the Isaac Swift Distinguished Professorship in Judaic Studies. UNCC was unaware that at the same time, the professor was still holding his previous position at the University of Minnesota. At UNCC beginning in October, Zahavy taught a class titled "Judaism in the Time of Early Christianity" for two hours on Mondays and Wednesdays, then wouldfly back toMinnesota, where he taught two of the same classes on Thursdays. The 1,000-mile commute allowed Zahavy to pick up the hefty salaries from both universities. He also received an advance of $5,000 from UNCC for moving expenses, which he never used. In December, just two months after Zahavy's arrival, UNCC Chancellor Jim Woodward asked Zahavy to resign and requested that he reimburse the univer­ sity $5,000. Zahavy recently agreed to pay back the money. The University of Minnesota hasalso requested the professor's resignation. "The commitment of thestate of N.C. is to the public institutions, not the private institutions," said Gurley. In a committee report, chair of the student affairs committee, Chad Schneckenburger responded to an article in The Appalachian, which reported the ASU business affairs plans to expend approximately $12,000 to add new bike racks on cam­ pus. Schneckenburger, who researched possible locations and is on the bike rack committee, defended his committee's work on the bike racks, saying that the $12,000figure suggested by ASU business affairs was not defi­ nite. "We don't want to spend $300-5600 on bike racks," said Schneckenburger. "There is a lot more that goes into this [planning and placing new bike racks] than people think." Schneckenburger also said he plans to look into why students are no longer allowed to use Broome-Kirk Gym at their convenience and the purpose of the construction outside the post office. Amy Carver, chair of the off-campus affairs committee toldsenate that arental fair will be held Wednesday, Feb. 10 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. in the pub for students interested in living off campus next year. Lobbies Continued from page 1 "We decided to paint the lobby be­ cause we want our lobby back," said Collins. Mike Poteat, sixth floor Frank RA, refused to comment. Reid said that it is a bigger problem than duct taping the furniture and that other incidents had occurred involving the floor. Collins acknowledges that the floor has had some problems. "Our floor has had a lot of collective damage," Collins said. "It is a problem in the whole hall." According to Collins, the sixth floor lobby will reopen in a couple of weeks. Corrections The Appalachian apologizes for inaccurate information printed in the Jan. 26 crime reports. The gun found in Cone residence hall was not in plain view. It was found by the roommate in a personal drawer. Brian Stanley's quote in "Bike racks planned"should have read "To put all of this time and money into designing and building new bike racks seems to be a waste, when the old ones work just as well."

Reid said that locking the lobbies was not a fire hazard since the doors would open from the inside. Reid explained that since the collec­ tive damage policy is no longer in ef­ fect, residence life must absorb the loss. The policy allowed residence life to charge all students on a floor for dam­ ages that could not be attributed to one person. Other procedures are now needed to help vandals come forward and alleviate damage cost. "The higher the damage, the less money we have to put into productive areas," said Reid.

February 4 1QQ1 Awareness Art Ensemble comes to ASU By KELLIE WELBORN Staff Writer ASU has got something for those students who need a little of the islands in their lives. Art Awareness Ensemble (AAE), one of the country's most con­ sistent and popular reggae bands, will be performing at Legends Satur­ day, Feb. 6. AAE from Richmond, Va., has ap­ peared several times for ASU students, and hasalways been very well received. Many students like the reggae sound, often lost in the shuffle of the. many college bands which frequent the area. AAE is a Richmond, Va., based band that has been highly acclaimed in the U.S., particularly within the southeastem region. "AAE offers audiences the perfect reggae mix. Its original songs and spirited renditions of reggae clas­ sics provide for high-energy performances," says Night Life maga­ zine. Tickets for AAE are on sale from 11 a.m. to3 p.m. at the student union ticket office Thursday and Friday. Tickets are $4 for students and $5 for guests, in advance, and $5 at the door the night of the show. Doors open at 9 p.m. Small sings of peace and respect By WILLIAM FARRELL Staff Writer Fred Small, folk singer, song writer performed in concert at the Wesley Foundation Thursday, Jan. 28.

Small combines humor, acoustic picking and audience participation to perform a delightfully good show. His original and witty lyrics keep smiles set and allows everyone to relax and enjoy each others presence. His songs are about peace and human respect. Fred wants people to realize how special we each are and how each individual plays an important role in theimmediate com­ munity, and how this community bond leads to an entire society of loving more aware people. The audience participation was fun and everyone at one point or another abounded with laughter. The audience was split and half pretended to be frogs, the other half the concerned citizens. Apparently the Boston Globe had printed a story last year about radioac­ tive frogs that were in Tennessee and were causing Geiger counters to set off uncontrollably. The left side of theroom had it easy they were the frogs and said 'URIBrr and the right sideof the room threw their arms into the air and said "AAAHHH." Take Continued from page 3 northern states. Recently, they per­ formed in Charlotte and were very well received. They will continue their tour of the United States until March, when they will tour Europe. Up With People has been performing for 27years, and this is their second stop in Boone in the past four years. "We really want to get our message to the students of Appalachian," said Warburton. "That message is simply that the youth of the world can come together and recognize differences be­ tween each other and celebrate those differences," he said. The full cast will be arriving in Boone today and will be staying with host fami­ lies. Tomorrow, Feb. 5, the cast of Up With People and anyone who would like to join them will be going on a hike up Snake Mountain at 12:30 p.m. They expect the hike to last until 4 p.m. Other songs were based on events such as the Rodney King incident, in which all the lyrics were King's own words, and child abuse by parents who had adopted children, but found no love in the relationship. A song about a Russian cosmonaut, who because of the new republic was left in space. His old homeland as he knew it no longer existed, and the country did not have the funds to land Sergie's space­ craft. The concert left everyone wide-eyed and energetic, a warm feeling could be felt. Small's concern for both commu­ nity and the environment is apparent in his music. He educates people in a very special way that allows true radiance to stem from ones heart instilling smiles and happiness. Up With People will be performing their show in Farthing Auditorium on Saturday at7 p.m. Student tickets are $5. Before the show, from 3-5 p.m., the cast will be having a backstage tour for all interested people. The cast would like to thank Gamma Beta Phi, their on-campus sponsor, for all of their help.

SMITH Production Coordinator IACRAVER letic COMMENTARY Sex is no game; the risks are real Indifference towards the dangers of unprotected sex can be deadly By ROBERT ROBERTSON Staff Writer "Come on man do it, its fun." ROBERTA. WILLIAMS I looked at their f aces as Fred offered the revolver to Copy Editor Jenny. She and I were virgins to this game of LAURA J. KOLB chance which was being offered to us.

With hands that danced as if to a waltz he gingerly unlocked the cylinder and displayed the five empty chambers as he caressed the hard still tip of the one bullet. Then slamming the cylinder back into place Fred spun it with his free hand and quickly placed the 4*1 *«y fe* v 262-1IS?; the editorial daff may be reached at long stem of the gun to his temple. Everyone froze. "This is the fun part. You don't know what will happen. Maybe something bad... maybe something good. That doesn't matter though. It's the pleasure that counts. Live for the moment. Get the adrenalin pumping, the heart pounding, the juices flowing then ... click. Instinctively everyone drew back but nothing had occurred. Death had been stood up on what was a most promising date. Fred had his eyes closed as he slowly lowered the gun, quivering from the excitement the climax of his game had given him. "Ohhh man, that was the best. Here, Jenny, your turn." Her small hands fumbled at first with it as if not sure ice Residence Life changed its policy on collective billing, the innocent of herself. Then, assuring herself that it was worth a nts in a residence hall can no longer be charged for the damage done by try, she finally took a firm hold on the butt of the Head Typesetter n rank lobbies damaged; inocent punished s. However, they seem to have found a new way to punish the innocent, the beginning of this semester, the furniture of the Frank Residence Hall floor lobby was taped to the ceiling.

When was the last timea whole town was _ shed' shed when a murder occurred and no one confessed? ie lobbies on the other floors are now open or will be opened soon with the lelobl ption of the sixth floor. These residents will still be punished for a crime other students may have committed. In order for them to get access back eir lobby, they have been given three options. They can have the lobby lened with the condition that if the floor receives another collective damage ;e the lobby will again be closed, they can have the RA open the lobby een the hours of 7 p.m. and midnight when a resident assistant is on duty, ley can paint the lobby.

If Residence Life does not really believe the innocent should be punished, it should not require the residents to orm tasks to get back the use of their paid for lobby.

Her eyes met mine as she slowly felt the warm hard surface of the chambers and rolled than tenderly with ha fingers. "That's it There's nothing to it Isn't the rush starting yet? The thrill of life itself is yours to command. Trust me. I would never hurt you." Jenny's attention was on the revolver as she brought it up to ha head. She was wet with sweat, and the pumping of her heart was quite noticeable by the violent upheavals beneath ha blouse. "Everyone is doing it. There's no cause for alarm. Just close your eyes and enjoy it. The pleasures all for you. Trust me." With her hand squeezing the handle and ha eyes welded shut, the tip of the gun was put on even level with her temple. Ha mouth grimaced as ha finger numbly drew the trigger back, not knowing what would come. She was scared, but this was what the guys wanted. To be accepted she had to do this. She took the plunge and pulled the trigger back ... BLAM. The very foundation of earth and time came to a halt as Jenny's right ear spewed a milky mixture of life from the interior of her being. As if in slow motion, I watched as the gun somehow won the race to the floor as the shell of the soul known as Jenny Neibors met with the forces of gravity. Fred nonchalantly stepped over the body and retrieved the smoky object. He quickly placed another charge within. "Sometimes you win; sometimes you lose. She's a loser, I guess. No skin off my teeth. Your turn Robbie. Believe me, you'll love it." "Are you crazy?!" I gasped,"A person just died and you want me to play your stupid game? I'm outta here." "Come on Rob, the odds are with you.There's only a one in six chance that you'll lose. Sure sometimes the odds are beat, but it's worth the risk. Henry and Jake do it all the time and they're still here. I myself have done it dozens of times with several different people and I'm OK. At least try it once, for me. I promise you'll love it. Trust me." "How about protection, in case it does go off? I've heard that..." "Aw comeon. It's just not the same as going natural. It's better to feel the cool shaft against you. If you insist, here's a steel cap to put ova the eye of the gun. Nothing beats the real thing, but if you insist." I watched as the cap was placed over the weapon and the butt was offered to me. As my hand met with the chamber's curves I felt a tingle of excitement run rampant throughout my body. With a shaky grip I raised the revolver tomy skull and bracedmyself. I felt more alive than at any time in my whole life. There was no other thought pulsating through my mind than of the thrill of what might happen. Suddenly I shot erect and pulled the trigger...click. Oh God! As Fred would say, what a rush! I casually sighed as if, being Atlas, the world was taken off my back. I had dodged a bullet; had stopped death. With a quiet ease my eyes uncrossed and my body lost all substance. I felt like I had just fired a last second shot to win the game. I could grow to like this. "So how'd you like it? It's the coolest, huh?" "The best man. I shouldn't have doubted ya. So what do you call this game anyway?" "Sex in the Nineties, what else?" Open mind needed for proper critique Crusade for Christ not brainwashers To the Editor: You walk in closed minded. You walk out closed minded. Unfortu­ nately that's how Brian Winkler walked into Andre Kole's recent performance. The first thing that came to mind after reading his editorial is: "Of course Campus Crusade for Christ is going to mention Christianity. After all, that's the whole purpose of the organiza­ tion!" In fact, that's why the name was printed on all pieces of publicity (except some blackboards). Campus Crusade didn't want to give the impression of a "bait and switch." There was nothing secretive or covert about it. A note of correction, although it's minor, is in order. Kole gave two intermissions. The first was 15 minutes and the second, prior to the final act, was when Kole gave people an opportunity to leave. I thought it was very courteous to do so. He could have continued on without the chance to duck out. Ultimately the decision to leave or stay belonged to Winkler. Pertaining to his comments on Andre Kole's logic, I'd like to know where the faultiness comes in. It's perfect logic to assume that after millions of years of reincarnation we would find someone who has reached perfection (of course, some pockets of reincarnation believers propose people reincarnate into other worlds). Honestly, though, I give Winkler the benefit of the doubt and assume he wants to be intellectually honest about seeking the truth. Therefore, I hope he'll take the time to research Kole's credentials and claims as it pertains to his travels and research into such trickery as psychic surgery and levitation. Those credentials are not to be laughed at. By the way, I doubt anyone who is able to levitate would turn down $25,000 even though it seems paltry to Brian. Finally, what about Campus Crusade's motivation to bring in Andre Kole? It wasn't financial! I work with the organization and know the final cut. It wasn't to embarass or ridicule those involved in new age thought. Really! It wasn't to "brain­ wash" inductees into our group (that's the paramount of illogical thinking if you understand our purpose). The real motivation and our purpose: To explain how a loving, merciful and just God has extended His forgiveness to a rebellious people. It is possible to know God personally and experience his grace. He has initiated the relationship and has made it possible through the selfless act of Christ dying on the cross for our rebelliousness. He offers an abundant, purposeful life here on earth and eternal life beyond this world. What kind of logic would it be to reject an offer like that? date by which our undergraduate degree programs will generally be required to comply with the 128 maximum-hour policy. Second, at the present time; Appalachian has ndt • committed itsdfto requesting the formal designation of any program as a "five-year" one. Because of curricular complications within the five specific programs listed in your story, they are being permitted additional time to come into compli­ ance with the 128-hour maximum; but it remains our objective to have them also conform to the policy as soon as possible. Thank you for the opportunity to offer these clarifications. Harvey R. Durham Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Bias existed against male assault victim To the Editor: Your article on Jan. 28, 1993 entitled "Student assaulted" gave the actual name of an assault victim while protecting the identity of his alleged assailant. Not only are the journalistic ethics of your writers questionable, but they have exposed the victim of an apparent hate-crime to the very real possibility of repeated harassment and violence. For years women have had to fight for identity protection in cases of rape and other physical violence. This Neale Davis student is no less deserving of this Campus Crusade for Christ Staff anonymity and protection because he ASU Box 8935 is a male victim of assault. Just as no real or perceived attack justifies a response of violence, the satisfaction of public curiosity in no way justifies the violation of the victim's privacy. To the Editor: It is long past time for the pendu­ lum of protective rights to balance In an otherwise very informative between preserving the rights of story which appeared in the Jan. 26 criminals and eliminating the rights issue, "UNC system receives high of victims. Public and journalistic marks and addresses graduation rate," responsibility by "The Appalachian" there appear two inaccuracies which I staff would be a welcome move in believe it is important to clear up for that direction. the benefit of the campus community.

ALE officials randomly checked identifications of restaurant patrons. Los Arcos was cited for selling alcohol to minors. Five students and one Los Arcos employee were cited by the Alcohol Law Enforcement Agency (ALE) Sat­ urday, Jan. 23, at Los Arcos Mexican Restauant on Depot Street in Boone. A large crowd, mostly Appalachian students, had gathered at the restaurant to hear a live band. The ALE entered at 11:18 p.m. todo a routine check for any violations occurring concerning alco­ holic beverages, said ALE officer Rick Wiseman. "I was standing outside around mid­ night with 30 or so people when they all pushed inside before the ALE stopped letting people in. They had shut the bar down and the band had already stopped playing,"said ASU student Sue Allran. Wiseman reported three students charged with possession of a malt bev­ erage while under 21 yearsof age. They were Kimberly Scruggs, Jason A. Flassing, and Brian C. Daniel. "I thought it was unfair the way they (ALE) picked people randomly. I didn't have a beer in my hand, but when I walked outside they [ALE] gave me a breathalizer test," said Flassing. Justice J. Miller was cited for giving an alcoholic beverage to someone un­ der the age of 21, and Jason L. Wheeler was cited for purchasing a malt bever­ age while under 21 years of age. The hand stamps that those under the age of 21 received at the door made it easy for them to be served inside, ac­ cording to Wiseman. "All they had to do was wipe off the stamp." Los Arcos employee Luis Albersto Soto Mamyo was criminally charged with selling a malt beverage to a minor. This resulted in a violation being filed against the restaurant's ABC license, said Wiseman. Depending on the judge's decision, Los Arcos can be fined and/or have their ABC license suspended or pcrmenantly revoked. Wiseman said he felt that if the ALE had stayed longer theycould have given a significantly larger amount of cita­ tions for the possession and selling of alcoholic beverages. Rumors that Los Arcos is closing because of the incident are not true, said a restaurant employee. "It would be hard for us to close because we have a five-year lease," said the employee. Libertarian Party surveys students' political views By ADAM HATCH Assistant News Editor Appal achian students were polled last week to determine if students are lib­ eral, conservative, libertarian, authori­ tarian or centrist. Joseph Knight, a representative of the Libertarian party conducted the poll outside the Sweet Shop Thursday. Twenty-five of the 130 participants were classified as Libertarians, while the majority of the students were con­ sidered centrists or political moderates. Conservatives ranked last in the poll. The survey was conducted on the basis of response tostatements given in survey form. Participants answered the statement with a yes, no or maybe. Answers were given a point with the higher values associated with the Lib­ ertarian party. Questions included: People are bet­ ter off with free trade than with tarriffs, ' Military service should be voluntary, Drug laws do more harm than good. End taxes and payfor services with user fees. The results were of the survey were: LIBERAL 27 CENTRIST 64 CONSERVATIVE 03 AUTHORITARIAN ... 11 LIBERTARIAN 25 Knight, who has visited many col­ lege campuses around the country, has said in the past that any form of govern­ govern- ment can be an abusive one, even a democratic system, government by defi­ nition is the use of force. Libertarians believe the Democratic and Republican parties have only in­ tensified problems such as higher taxes and political gridlock. The Libertarian is classified as an enemy of big governemnt like a Republican and also believer in individual freedom above all. Libertarians believe in the repeal of sexual conduct legislations between consenting adults. They are in favor of Europe and Japan paying for their own defense, and the repeal of the drug laws saying, "they do more harm than good." Libertarians bill themselves as high on civil liberties and high on free mar­ ket economics. Libertarians also advo­ cate the limited involvement of America overseas and the removal of restric­ tions on entrepreneurs. See LIBERTARIANS page 2 Service program being considered for loan payments ~ By LARA ADAMS Staff Writer President Clinton is developing a National Service Program to enable college students to pay back loans through community service. The pro­ gram has not been completed, but the recent appointment of Education Sec­ retary Richard Riley brings the pros­ pect one step closer. Before hiselection toEducation Sec­ retary, Riley proposed to "promote greater student access to America'scol­ leges and universities and link two is­ sues important to youth education and national service" according to the ColCol­ lege Press Service. "No student should be disallowed from going to college because of costs," said Riley. Now elected, Riley is working inde­ pendently and jointly with Clinton on this matter. His education agenda would affect thousands of college students throughout the country. A section of Riley's agenda focuses on the repayment of government loans either through performing communityservice work jobs such as teacher or police offersor through a percentageof their income after graduation. Perma­ nent decisions on the payback proce­ dure have not been made. The national-service plan would cost approximately $2 billion and only as­ sist about 150,000 individuals. Frank Slobig, director of policy and programs at Youth Service America in Washing­ ton, D.C., said he was disappointed in the policy because Clinton campaigned on a larger effort reported The Chris­ tian Science Monitor last week. Slobig believes the program will be a very finite, limited program in scale and scope. Furthermore, questions on how to divide the pie in relation to the avail­ able budget will surface. Advocates say that in order for this proposed plan to be a good national- di­ service program, there should be a diversity of participants with different economic, racial and ethnical back­ grounds. Riley supports race-based scholarship as legal if promoting diver­ sity, not discrimination. The Clinton administration's national service program plans are uncertain. The proposed plan'seffects on Appala­ chian are also uncertain. Financial aid officials at ASU know little about the program and how to react to it. The loan repayment system with n< na­ tional and community service in ex­ change for government loans or college tuition is not a new concept. Under President Franklin Roosevelt a Civil­ ian Conservation Corps was imple­ mented as one of the largest successful national programs in the U.S. Lyndon Johnson and John F.Kennedy initiatied two other national programs, Volun­ teers in Service to America (VISTA) and the Peace Corps.

Appalachian Police received the report Monday and are investigat­ ing the case. A student was assaulted in the Wey Hall traffic circle 11:50 p.m. Mon­ day. The man was in his vehicle when two other men approached the car on bicycles. The alleged attacker hit the student twice, spit on him and broke his glasses, said Police Captain Larry Foster. Descriptions of the alleged attackers wereobtained and an inves­ tigation is pending. Over the weekend, four students and three non-students were issued citations for possession of marijuana and possession of drug parapherna­ lia. The Gardner residents were is­ sued citations Sunday and referred to student court. Policeconfiscateddrug^ paraphernalia and marijuana from Gardner residence hall. The three nonstudents were issued citations at Leg­ ends over the weekend after being discovered with marijuana and drug paraphernalia. The gun possession case in Cone residence hall last week uncovered extenuating circumstances. The stu­ dent cited for possession of a 25 caliber gun was not the owner of the gun. The student's father had accidcntly left his gun in the room after visiting. The student will not face usual sanctions for weapon posses­ sion. In other news, a vehicle was re­ ported vandalized in thestadium park­ ing lot area. The driver's side of the car appeared to be kicked in. A vacuum belonging to a staff member was reported stolen from the Gardner residence hall office. Foster said the vacuum was taken over Christmas break, but the report was not filed until last Thursday. �The Ann(liar hi(i Tuesday February) 2. 799?

He said that the current racks are at least 23 years old and are not designed for modem bikes. According toSchneckenburger, bikes can easily be stolen from the current racks due to the quick releasewheels on many bikes. However, some student senators insist the racks work fine be­ cause most students know the bikes can be stolen that way anddo not chain thenwheels to the rack. Instead, most stu­ dents lock the frame of their bike to the top of the rack. To put all of this time and money into designing and building as well," said off- campus senator Brian Stanley.

What ever i22 Zaphon Wilson never considered getting a Ph.D. until professors at Appalachian State Uni­ versity encouraged him to apply to a doctoral program. Now, in addition to teaching political science at Appalachian, Wilson is working to increase the number of minority faculty on cam­ pus. He is the special assistant to the vice chancellor of academic affairs for minority con­ cerns. "Appalachian ranks last in the UNC system for the number of minorities on its faculty," Wilson said. "We have no where to go but up." After receiving bachelor's and master's de­ grees from Appalachian, Wilson earned his doctorate from Atlanta University. "It was the first time I had ever seen that number of black professors with Ph.D.'s and master's degrees. I was like a duck in water. It was the most enlight­ ening, exciting education experience I ever had." Wilson is now one of six minorities on Appalachian's faculty. Many factors hinder efforts to increase minor­ ity faculty on campuses. Competition from the private sector and a decline in the number of blacks earning doctorates means a reduced ap­ plicant pool. "The pool was never large to begin with," Wilson said. "Many feel they will have a better quality of life it they go into the business sector." Because of competition from business, some universities feel they can't afford to hire black faculty. "We need to get out of the notion it costs too much to bring in a black Ph.D.," Wilson said. "It's time to quit dwelling on the negative aspect. It's just an excuse for not doing anything." \ / THE APPALACHIAN TUESDAY, February 2,1993 profile: Zaphon Wilson Wilson believes Appalachian and other uni­ versities should take a different approach when recruiting black faculty. He said hiring expecta­ tions for blacks and others are often ambiguous. He suggests universities become more flexible and creative in their hiring practices. "We need to change requirements that call for the tradi­ tional doctorate degree," he said. "We need to be more willing to accept a combination of experi­ ence, professional activities and educatioa "Our traditional approach to hiring has yielded nothing," he said. "We've maintained the same number of black faculty for 15 years." Wilson is compiling an applicant pool to share with deans and department chairs when faculty positions become vacant. Information about the university is advertised twice a year in publications targeted to black scholars. Wilson also contacts deans of graduate programs at black institutions asking them to encourage doc­ toral candidates to submit applications. His goal is to have at least one AfricanAmerican faculty member in each department on campus. "That's not asking a whole lot," he said. White as well as black students benefit from the differing views minority faculty bring to an academic climate, he said. "We need minority role models for all students. They are only see­ ing minorities in subordinate roles, or when black entertainers come to campus." Without these role models Wilson fears stu­ dents won't be equipped to deal with ethnic and cultural differences when they leave the univer­ sity because of preconceived notions with stereotypes. "Students need to begin todemand diversity," Wilson said. "If we expect our student body to be diverse, how can we not expect our faculty to be diverse?" WILSON INCREASES MINORITY FACULTY: Zaphon Wilson is working to increase minority faculty on campus. ASU ranks lowest in the number of minority faculty members. Wilson would like to see at least one African-American faculty member in each department.

The composition process began in the fall. Meister and the students took pictures as they shot video of the sculptures. The students used the pictures as they composed their works and in some cases, returned to take measurements and note how sculptures were placed in relation to other objects. "What's fantastic is that in the instances where students chose the same sculpture, they com­ posed totally different music," Meister said. "Each one saw and heard something different" Panic hits Appalachian CANDA F.SMITH Managing Editor Last Thursday night, Legends hosted a grand sell-out affair. Widespread Panic performed for over 1000 people that night. The show sold out the day before the concert. Not since Blues Traveler and the Indigo Girls has their been a sell' out that far in advance,commented Randy Kelly, manager of Legends. This concert was in so much demand that one person paid $60 for a scalped ticket outside of Legends. Kelly also said that over 200 people were outside Legends trying to find tickets. A.P.P.S. was even offered bribes for admission and their phone rang constantly for two days with people inquiring about the concert. The question is: was the concert worth all of this hassle and demand? Yes, yes, and again, yes! Widespread played so well; I didn't want it to end. I haven't seen such a great show with such a relaxed atmosphere since Blues Traveler was here last year. The audience wasn't falling down drunk and fighting with the security guards as I had witnessed the previous Thursday night. The people were relaxed; having fun. Some sat, some danced and some stood in line for the bathroom all night. People who I talked to enjoyed the atmo­ sphere that the music produced. The lights were also a spectacular part of the performance.Their is no argument that Widespread Panic has a similar sound to the Grateful Dead, but I have always found their music very individualized. They have always had their own sound. The mix of the songs made the concert a success. The tour promoted new songs that will be released on the next album. The encore, "Space Wrangler" was the final touch to a great concert. The Connells will be at Legends on Feb. 19. Danny Lloyd's composition is based on "The Relentless Buzzsaw of Time,"located in front of the College of Business building. This sculpture conjured sounds of machinery for Lloyd. "When you walk up to it (the sculp­ ture), it looks like a giant machine with lots of working parts." He also felt the piece has a dark side or science fiction aspect to it. Lloyd uses synthesizer and sampled sound in his composi­ tion to voice the sounds of machinery. Jason Smith also based his composition on "The Relentless Buzzsaw of Time." In Smith's case, the sculpture called to mind a machine's repetitive movement. His fast-paced composi­ tion features a lot of movement and repeated notes. "When I heard his piece, I thought of the bigwheeled sculpture immediately," Meister said. Jason Graves' composition is based on "A Novella Of Angels,"located on thesteps leading to the College of Business. He describes his slow-tempo composition as "angelic, peaceful and tonal." Chris Benton chose "Lance," sited in front of Tomlinson Park, for his composition.

"The match itself is very important because we have an edge in going into the conference. If the kids wrestle well here then they are going to get a higher seed for the conference tournament. I was pleased with our performance," ASU Head Coach Paul Mance said. The win was just the second for the Mountaineers in the last nine tries against the Moccasins. The last Appa­ lachian win was in 1990. The match was pretty close through­ out, however, Appalachian tied up the match at 15-15 with Shomari Rozier's victory at the 177-pound weight class. Rozier took down Chad Dennis, 5-2. The Mountaineers secured the victory when John Reynolds pinned Gerald Canin 2:54 at the 190-pound weight class. Heavyweight Melvin Crosby wrapped up the competition as hedefeated Steve McMillian, 6-0. "Reynolds really came through for us," Mance said. "He is a great wrestler and he has got a lot of ability. If he wrestles and goes after it, we know he can be in the match with anybody." The two squads exchanged the lead four times and were tied on three occa­ sions. Appalachian and TennesseeChattanooga were never separated by more than three points until Reynolds" pin late in the match. Appalachian won six of the 10 weight classes for the win. Other individual winners included 126-pounder Donnell Rawls, 142pounder Victor Balmeceda and 158pounder Corey Creech. Rawls pinned Joel Loudon in 5:31 for the win while Balmeceda got past Kevin Emily, 12-6. Creech defeated Mike Newman by a 6-2 margin. Tennessee-Chattanooga captured the 118, 134, 150 and 167-pound weight classes. David Barden defeated ASU's Mike Orris, 9-4 at 118 pounds. Frank Matthews pinned Mountaineer Scott Beauchamp in the 134-pound bracket while Guy Harris won over Appalachian's Kyle Kukendall, 11-5. Ben Baumer captured the 167-pound class with a 7-4 overtime win over Appalachian's Bill Baker.

Point guard Jeff Williams added 13 for the Apps, while Nod Carter pitched in 12 in a game that pleased head coach Tom Apke. "I told our team that we really came of age on Sunday," said Apke. "Our effort, intensity and poise is a good sign that we are growing and maturing as a team." ASU led 59-49 at the 11-minute mark of the first half, but the 'Herd came thundering back with an 11-2 run that put them in front 66-65 with five min­ utes remaining in regulation. Ross' two free throws were the only Mountaineer points in the last two min­ utes of regulation. The Thundering Herd just outlasted Appalachian in the overtime period. The Mountaineers shot only 17 per­ cent from behind the three-point arc and collected only 11 offensive re­ bounds. The Apps were out-rebounded 54-36 for the entire game. Tyrone Phillips who,along with Ross, is one of the SC's top scorers finished with 32 points and 13 rebounds for Marshall. Malik Hightower added 19. On Saturday, the Mountaineers were on the other side of things, as they claimed a 64-55 victory over Virginia Military in Lexington, Va. The Mountaineers came from be­ hind toclaim their second straight league win after a victory at Western Carolina. "I thought we really played with poise," said Apke."VMI gives you a lot of different looks defensively and I thought our execution on offense against them is a sign of a really good team." Ross, as he has done several times this season, had a dismal first half with only three points but finished the evening with 23 in 37 minutes of play. Chad McClendon added 12 points and 12 boards for the Apps, Hege chipped in 11, and Williams had 10. The Mountaineers, as a team, shot 35.7 percent in the first half of play but rebounded nicely in the second 20 min­ utes by hitting 50 percent of their shots. Jonathan Penn led the way for the Keydets with 15 points. Preston Lewis chipped in 10 points and grabbed 17 rebounds in the loss for VMI. The Keydets shot only 36.1 percent for the game and committed 16 turn­ overs in the contest to leave the door wide open for Appalachian State. ASU will venture out of the Southern Conference on Wednesday night when they return home to take on the Univer­ sity of North Carolina at Wilmington. The tip-off is slated for 7:30 p.m. in Varsity Gym. The Mountaineers return to SC ac­ tion when they host the Catmounts of Western Carolina on Saturday, Feb. 6 at 3 p.m. The Apps will then turn around on Sunday and host the Moccassins from the University of Tennessee at Chatanooga in another 3 p.m. start. Appalachian is currently insixth place in the league with seven conference tilts remaining on the schedule. The Southern Conference tournament will begin in Asheville, N.C., on Thursday, March 4. Lady Apps split pair of league contests By SHANNON McGINNIS Staff Writer Appalachian State's Lady Mountain­ eers split a pair of Southern Conference games this past weekend at home as they fell to Furman 85-81 on Saturday before bouncing back against Western Carolina on Sunday, 88-80. The Lady Apps are now 2-4 in the league and 8-10 overall. Appalachian was led by junior center Angie Crosby against Furman. Crosby totalled 25 points and 11 rebounds for the Lady Apps. Sophomore guard Beth Kilby added 20 points while junior for­ ward Regina Ikard had 14 points. Preseason player-of-the-year, Rushia Brown, led the Lady Paladins with 35 points and six rebounds. JenniferJones, Kristi Creamer and Latoya Armstrong were also in double figures for Furman with 15,14 and 12 points respectively. The Lady Apps rebounded on Sun­ day against Western Carolina with Crosby leading the way with 21 points and 11 rebounds. Kilby added 17 while Ikard chipped in 15 points and 12 re­ bounds. Sheryl Lynch and Karolina Karlqvist were also in double figures for ASU with 11 and 10 respectively. Hie Lady Catamounts were led by Angela Rown and Lori Lyons who ac­ cumulated 29and 19points resepctively. Appalachian State will take a break this weekend before travelling to Ala­ bama on Feb.8. The next home contest will be on Feb. 10 as the Lady Apps host East Tennessee State. Athlete of the week: Melissa Morrison By LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor Appalachian Photo by P*u] Lampe °Y APps SPLIT: The Appalachian State women's basketball squadsplit a pair COfiference matches at home this past weekend. Senior Melissa Morrison became the first member of the Lady Mountaineer indoor track squad to qualify for the NCAA National Championships two weekends ago as she clocked 7.66 in the 55 meter hurdles at Virginia Tech's Comfort Inn Invitational. The automatic qualifying time for the event is 7.68. The nationals will be held on March 12-13 in Indianapolis, Ind. In addition to qualifying for the NCAA championships, Morrison has also qualified for the USA Track and Field Championships to be held on Feb. 26 at Madison Square Gardens in New York City. "Melissa is a highly motivated com­ petitor. She does a real good job train­ ing and is very receptive to what you ask her to do," ASU Head Coach John Weaver said. "She always does her best and if she loses, she uses it to her advantage to become better prepared for her next race." Morrison is in her third year with the Lady Mountaineer track program and is looking for her third Southern Con­ ference title in the 55-meter hurdles as well as the 100 meter hurdles this sea­ son. Morrison has captured each event for the past two years. In her junior year, Morrison com­ peted in the nationals in the 100 meter hurdles in Austin, Tx., so it is not as if she will be on unfamiliar ground this March. With a clocking of 13:38 in the event, she finished 15th in the nation. Morrison went on to compete in the Olympic Trials in New Orleans, LA, however, she suffered from a pulled hamstring and was unable to compete after the first heat See ATHLETE page 6 Melissa Morrison �6 The Appalachian. Tuesday. February 2. 1991 Athlete Continued from page 5 Morrison came to Appalachian State from A.L. Brown High in Kannapolis where she was a three time state cham­ pion in the100-meter hurdles and a four time all-conference selection. She was also named Most Valuable Player for her final two seasons at A.L. Brown. Morrison and the rest of the Lady Mountaineers are gearing up for the leauge championships which will be held in Lexington, Va., on the campus of Virginia Military Institute on Feb. 19-20.

KC.. 2Sm ' By JONATHAN WATTERSON Staff Writer " THt Appalachian or, those of individual columnist, and not necessity The Supreme Court of the United Stales that Reagan and Bush spent twelve years shaping in their image has this week stricken a severe blow against human rights and for totalitarianism. Their decision Monday pushed the U.S. criminal justice system another notch away from fairness and toward mob justice. The case was that of Leonel Torres Herrerra, con­ victed and sentenced to death ten years ago of murder­ ing two Texas police officers. He has since produced sworn statements stating that his late brother commit­ ted the deed. TheCourt voted 6-3 that Herrerra, and all death row inmates who present new evidence after the 30-day appeals limit, may not have a new hearing in a federal court. iecommon complaint among students isadministrative overspending. Yet His life is forfeit on a technicality. faced with the same options, students seem to be just as willing to spend, Three justices—William Rehnquist, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas—asserted that no matter how , spend. We can not afford to be hypocrites. fipalachian Business Affairs has agreed to set a budget of up to $12,000 to clearly innocent a prisoner is, the doors of the federal arch, design and place new bike racks around campus. However, research courts are forever closed after thirty days. They stated by a member of student government shows the racks can be designed and that executive clemency, the traditional last chance of death row inmates, is sufficient for cases such as i for under $5,000. The catch here is that SGA seems to be buying into the inistration's habit of overspending. Although SGA originally only ex- Herrerra's. The ruling was part of an effort to reduce the work led about $6,000 for the project, they now seemed convinced it will cost load of the federal courts. It was also intended to speed e to the $12,000 suggested by Business Affairs, up murder trials and have them out of the way. All this tudent government, and seemingly everyone involved with this project, is in the name of more efficient government. gotten sidetracked with creating an elaborate bike rack design to enhance You know what the most efficient government of the University's environment when all student want is a safe and sufficient * twentieth century was? Nazi Germany. to lock their bikes. This is an irresponsible and ttondish attitude, Justice is by nature aninefficicnt process. It requires ints abound when students perceive the administration has spent "too rigorous skepticism, in a nation in which (supposedly) yUing Manage, may be reached at 262-2157; the editorial naff may be reached at Ve must break the adition of waste £ i" on a project, yet the student government seems to plan to do the same ivably it could cost $12,000 to build these bike racks, but think about we would get for our money. Maybe a gold leaf bike rack with an lie alarm system that would cause the rack to shoot out into space, bikes I, if someone tried to steal a bike. Or maybe black racks with separate tents for each bike with parking gates set to open with special gate would better suit the needs of ASU bike owners. Let's get back to reality, we need are simple bike racks that are as unobtrusive and easy to use as sible. SU needs bike racks and it needed them last semester. Let's get on with this spend as little as possible quickly. the administration really believes it will cost the full $12,000 to build these racks, they have obviously not done enough research. The racks can be on campus for a fraction of what it would cost to order the racks ready The administration and SGA should strive to spend as little as possible these racks. Set cuts start small. Only when people realize that every department to make more of an effort to cut out unneeded spending will we be able :1 more funds into areas students think need more support. We will not to improve the library until we stop spending more than we need on things. bike rack is a fairly simple design. They do not need to be elaborate and a largeprice tag. Students listen to yourselves. Don't just spend the money tse it is offered. Instead shop for the best bargain and spend only what is ed. we are all innocent until proven guilty. "Prove" is a much stickier concept than many believe. In the com­ plex real world, the only way to prove anything is to attempt, in as many ways as possible, to disprove it. If you cannot do that, you may consider the proposition "proven," for the moment. Death is the ultimate punishment. Unlike any other punishment allowable in our country, it is irrevocable. Therefore, in death penalty cases, the government must be willing to subject this grim decision to every test available. To "prove" the defendant's innocence with a measure of certainty even approaching the finality of the punishment, we must be willing to attempt to disprove it any way we can. Richard A. Samp, chief counsel of the Washington Legal Counsel, writes in defense of the ruling, "We must, of course, always bevigilant against the possibil­ ity that innocent people will be executed. But no one executed since the death penalty's 1976 reinstatement has been even arguably innocent." He needs to look further back. A Tufts University study identified 23 people in this century who have been convicted of murder and ex­ ecuted—then subsequently found innocent. That is 23 too many. Among the 327 luckier convicts who were found innocent before their death dates was Joseph Brown of Florida. In 1983, federal courts agreed on the day of his planned execution to consider new evidence of his innocence, including his accuser's confession of per­ jury. The innocent man became a free man. Had today's Supreme Court seen his case, he would be mouldering underground, his name in disgrace. Let me iterate: this week's decision is not about justice. It is about laziness on the part of the courts to perform one of its essential duties—identifying and protecting the innocent at all costs. It is also about the deep-seated and detestable lust in our society for re­ venge. If an atrocity is committed, we want to see someone pay for it. Anyone will do, as long as we can pretend that it is the responsible party. The phlegmatic appeals process in death cases is frustrating to the public, for it wants not to see justice be done but to see someone fry. And this week's decision is another bone tossed to that seething public. The logical conclusion of it is that it isOK for the federal court system to knowingly send an innocent person to his or her death. The American judicial system was commissioned as a safety net to protect all of us from the mobmentality. The other two branches are beholden to the electorate, so they are just extensions of the mob. The courts are so removed from the public precisely to temper that populism that, though essential, occasionally becomes destructive. Executive clemency? Anyone who thinks that's a fair venue for claims of innocence has his head firmly entrenched in the sand. Governors are much too pres­ sured by public opinion to worry about justice, and those struggling to depict themselves as "tough on crime" will be reluctant to grant clemency to any inmate, regardless of the evidence. No one person should have that much arbitrary power over another person's life. Justice Harry Blackmun, a dissenter in the case, said, "The execution of a person who can show that he is innocent comes perilously close to simple murder." In his tact, he needlessly qualified his statement. To send an innocent person to death, or even one whose guilt is in question, is murder. M-U-R-D-E-R. Period. Samp writes further, "Our real concern ought to be in placing realistic limits on what is now an endless appeals process." This assertion is dangerous poppy­ cock. There should be no "realistic limits" on the burden of proof for a punishment that has no limits. Yes, death penalty cases seem to last forever. Yes, they arc more expensive than an entire lifetime in prison. This is absolutely appropriate. It must be difficult to execute an inmate. When imperfect people seek to exact a perfect punishment, they must be willing to go to any length to demonstrate their case. Must it take the sacrifice of an innocent person to convince the courts Of the necessity of their interven­ tion? If you want quick, efficient punishment, move to a totalitarian state — and hurry, for they are going out of style. In a nation based on justice, limited trials arc acceptable for prison sentences, in which the convict can be pardoned and released if need be. But to send someone to death without weeding out every single possibility of his or her innocence is barbarism. Are we to blame the. innocent for their fate? Reader upset with coverage To the Editor: This past weekend ASU hurdler Melissa Morrison qualified for the NCAA National meet, yet I saw no mention of this achievement in The Appalachian on Jan. 26. It's not as if Melissa merely beat a few good competitors or ran a good time. She ran a great time and qualified for the NCAA National meet! This is BIG NEWS. Why wasn't any information concerning this outstanding achieve­ ment included in The Appalachian as soon as possible? Surely this accomplishment is newsworthy; athletes from ASU don't qualify for national competition every day. When they do, as Melissa Morrison did this past weekend, they deserve prompt, timely and sizeable recognition from the campus community—most notably from the campus newspaper. It may be traditional for The Appalachian to run track articles in Thursday's edition but an accomplishment of this magnitude warrants coverage as soon as possible. We should also be tipping our hats to several other ASU tracks and field athletes such as Eric Roberts, Leander Watts, Brian Meisch, Billy Pemberton and Jason Gibson who all ranked among the top three in the Southern Conference in their respective events. These guys are performing great and have yet to receive their proper due from The Appalachian this semester. Somebody needs to get off of his heiny over there in Plemmons and hoof it over to the track and field offices and give some of ASU's fine athletes their deserved and proper press coverage. Geoff Masanet ASU Box 6985 AIDS not fully behavior dependent To the Editor: James A. Long's letter, "AIDS is a behavior-related disease," Nov. 24, expresses his extremely ignorant opinion about the disease. He expects to stop AIDS by singing the song of universal abstinence. Life is not that simple, James. Tell your story to the rape victim on the front page of the same paper who will now live every day wondering and waiting to find out her fate. Consider the countless number of women who have been date-raped and have contracted this deadly disease. Is that the behavioral choice you are refering to? The front page article of the Nov. 24 issue contained valuable statistics: over half of 7,000 women surveyed reported they have been sexually assaulted. Surely even by your standards this number could not be considered "extremely rare." I cannot help but wonder if Mr. Long would feel the same if someone close to him contracted this fatal disease. Think of the incredible price rape victims pay for this "free love." Worn i play Russian Roulette every day, for everywhere we look there is a fully loaded gun aimed at us.

Appalachian student Paul Dodson assaulted last Wednesday at Sainah Joe's Billiards Foods & Spirits 1 at the ASU infirmary according to one police and ASU police reports, dson described the incident as a "gay ihing," but has declined to press •ges against his alleged attacker. 'This happened to me because I am ly," said Dodson. : Savannah Joe's owner Joe Todd said ItK incident did not occur as Dodson jjjtoorted. Both accounts of the incident differ in details from Boone police and iU police reports. The Boone police report states that ion had asked a white male, who lice will not identify, about sexual 'ors and the alleged attacker refused, report says that Dodson grabbed he man in the groin. The alleged at­ tacker then hit Dodson with his fist according to the police report. Dodson refutes the report, f "The police report is incorrect and Ijfender," said Dodson. "I did not sign he report and neither myself nor the Itacker were present when the report •as filled out." J Boone police officer, W.D. Byrd, the Officer who compiled the report, could tot be reached for comment. 1 Dodson says he was playing pool irhen the alleged attacker propositioned him.

By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor 66 Appalachian Photo by Randy Rcinink REFERENDUM REJECTED: Appalachian students were not able to upset opportunities of liquor by the drink at the polls. Boone citizens decided mixed drinks will not be served in Boone. The issue can be brought to a referendum again in three years. Voters reject Liquor By The Drink By SUZILANDIS News Editor Boone citizens decided Tuesday that Boone will remain without liquor by the drink. Thirty-seven percent of the population decided to not allow mixed drinks by a 310 vote margin. The final voter tally was 1,793 against and 1,483 for the Liquor-By-Thc-Drink referen­ dum. As was expected, ASU students car­ ried 657 votes to 503 votes on the two university election sites. In order to vote, students had to have been regis­ tered in Watauga County by early De­ cember of last year. Polls closed at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday night, but by 8:45 the results were still too close to call with seven of the eight precincts counted. At that time the ref­ erendum was be defeating by400votes. However, people in favor of the refer­ endum were hopeful because the Col­ lege of Business precinct was not yet tallied. ASU students were able to help close the difference, but not pass the referendum. The vote ended a heavy campaign on both sides of the liquor issue. Oppo­ nents of the referendum feared the li­ quor by the drink would have a nega­ tive effect on the town. Groups such as Friends of Boone advertised the possi­ bilities of big chain restaurants taking over the small businesses in the area. Others were concerned about an in­ crease in growth, commercialization and crime. Advocates of the referendum cited the probability of increased revenue and control for the town of Boone. Town council member Saul Chase led the cause for liquor by the drink, by researching similar towns that recently added liquor by the drink. Chase found that those towns felt liquor by the drink had a positive not a negative effect on their town or city. The Town of Boone will have to wait three years before considering liquor by the drink again according to the state alcohol law. For now, those who wish to purchase a mixed drink will have to continue traveling to Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Seven Devils or Beech Mountain. 99 Blackwelder declares candidacy By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor Off campus senator Richard Blackwelder announced his candidacy for student government president at Tuesday's Student Government Association (SGA) meeting. Dan Gurley, current SGA president and J.D. Adams, former director of state affairs announced their candidacies last week. Blackwelder outlined several issues that he felt SGA should address includ­ ing multi-culturalism and recycling. "The administration forces students to handle their own safety and maintain the library," said Blackwelder. "As students, this is not our job." Blackwelder also said that students do not know anything about student government and that SGA should try to make more students aware of what stu­ dent government does. Blackwelder's running mate will be Deidre Martin, vice president of the Black Student Association. Martin em­ phasized the need for more diversity and multi-culturalism on campus. "We must get rid of ignorance," said Martin. "In order to understand and appreciate our differences, we must learn about each other." In other business, the senate elec­ tions committee was sworn in. The elections committee is responsible for ensuring fair and impartial campaign­ ing and election. Members of the committee include Keith Van Wagner, currently the chair of the SGA rules committee, Kara Morch, assistant rules chair, Mark Millis.off campus senator, Dawn Fox, off campus senator, and Mark Gains, off campus senator. Also, Greg Blimling, vice chancellor of student development, spoke to sen­ ate on the possible changes in residence hall visitation policies. Students who live in residence halls will be able to vote on possiblechanges to upgrade the visitation option. A B+ option (Sunday-Thursday until midnight and 24 hour visitation Friday and Saturday) and a B-H- option (Sun­ day-Thursday until 2 a.m. and 24 hour visitation Friday and Saturday) will be considered. Don Rankins, associate registrar, addressed senate on implementing a university telecommunications system. Rankins said the university is consider­ ing implementing a system that would allow students to access financial infor­ mation, upcoming events and service information. See SGA page 2 Appalachian photo by Karl* Smith SENATOR ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY: Off-campus senator Richard Blackwelder announced his candidacy for SGA president at Tuesday's SGA meeting. Faculty approves SGA resolution ASG passes resolution opposing tuition hike By DAWN MCQUIRE Assistant News Editor and DANE PERRY Staff Writer The Faculty Senate Committee passed a resolution to add a sexual orientation policy to the Equal Oppor­ tunity and Non Discriminatory Policy of Appalachian State. According to Tom Beaman, chair of the academic affairs committee of Stu­ dent Government Association (SGA), the bill was brought forth because as of yet the university has no protection policy for people who have been dis­ criminated against due to their sexual orientation. North Carolina has the highest rates of hate crimes against the gay and les­ bian population. As of yet there have been no reports of discrimination to­ wards gay or lesbian faculty or students at Appalachian State University. The Student Government Associa­ tion put forth the bill on the idea that education and employment should be passed on a persons ability and qualifi­ cations and not on factors that do not directly effect their job performance. The policy would restrict Appala­ chian State University from discrimi­ nating against someone on the basis of their sexual orientation in the educa­ tional or employment areas. However, it does not keep the university from setting up relationships with outside companies that may not follow this policy, such as ROTC. In other Faculty Senate business a grade appeal policy passed by SGA last semester was considered. Thecommit­ tee agreed to send the issue to a faculty referendum. After considering the re­ sults of the referendum senate will vote on the policy. By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor The University of North Carolina Association of Student Governments (UNCASG) passed a resolution Jan. 15 opposing the tuition increasesproposed by the Government Performance Audit Committee (GPAC). GPAC has proposed a 25 percent tuition hike for undergraduate students and a 50 percent for graduate students to improve to aid in the cost of state operations and raiseadditional revenue. "This tuition increase could discour­ age out of slate students and possiblj decrease enrollment across the board,' said J.D. Adams, UNCASG vice presi dent for legislative affairs. UNCASG plans a letter writing anc phone campaign to state legislatures tc oppose the tuition hikes. UNCASG also passed a resolutior supporting the proposed bond referen dum for the UNC system.

Todd said that since the assault he has received numerous calls question­ ing Savannah Joe's policy toward gay people. "We [Savannah Joe's] have nothing against gay people," said Todd, "as long as they don't push their preference on others." After the assault at Savannah Joe's, Dodson says he was followed to the ASU Infirmary and assaulted again. According to Dodson, he called Uni­ versity Policefrom Savannah Joe's and was driven by police to the back en­ trance of the ASU Infirmary. However, according to the University Police re­ port, Dodson walked to the ASU Infir­ mary by himself. According to Dodson, when he went inside the building, the same man fol­ lowed him in and hit him again. Dodson was then taken to the Watauga Emergency Room and treated for a concussion and cuts on his face. Dodson does not plan to press charges for the assault. "I was afraid he would find me and come after meagain. Even if I had made remarks or gestures to him, I should not have been hit," said Dodson.

It's a job she relishes. Barth has been named coordinator of the office of women's concerns at Appalachian State University—a job she has held on an interim basis for the past 18 months. Barth says the office is often like a lightning rod, attracting anger and skepticism from those who dismiss the value of any kind of women's activities. "It's not correct when people think this office promotes a specific political focus or agenda," Barth said. The office of women's concerns has a global focus, she said. "If it's an issue relating to women—students, faculty or staff—then we're interested in it." During the past 18 months the office has sponsored workshops on self-image and sexual harassment, conducted programs for Women's Equality Week, begun discussion groups on gender issues and helped establish a support group for single mothers. Future programs will address the legal rights of single mothers, do­ mestic violence and midwifery. The office alsoadministers the women'sstud­ ies academic program. Barth serves as the office's coordinator on a half-time basis. The rest of the time she can be found in the department of English, where she has been on the faculty since 1982. Her family background led to her interest in women's issues. "I was raised in a nontraditional family of strong women," Barth said. Ker .grandmother was a homesteader in Washington and her mother started college at age 16. "My parents made no gender distinction about what I could or couldn't do," Barth said. "The only thing they insisted on was that I go to college." Barth can point to no magic turning point when she realized she was a feminist. "A lot of women aren't even aware that they are femi­ nists," she said. "A lot don't start out being drawn to women's issues, but when they enter a See BARTH page 4 Appalachian Photo by Karla Smith COORDINATOR NAMED: Melissa Barth was recently named coordinator of the office of women's concerns.

Farthing displays work of Chicago artist ASU News Bureau ART DISPLAYED: Farthing Auditorium's Catherine Smith Gallery will feature the work of Jonathan Waterbury beginning Feb. 1. Chicago artist^Jonathan Waterbury's works will be on display Feb. 1 - March 12 at Appala­ chian State University. The exhibit will feature sculptures, wall pieces and paintings in Farthing Auditorium's Catherine Smith Gallery, and an outdoor installation along campus walkways. Gallery hours are weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 262-3017 for more information. Waterbury developed his style in the '80s. As a result, his early work has a distinctive postmodern flavor. Photographs and appropri­ ated texts in the style of corporate logos influenced his art, and like many of his contem­ poraries, he used familiar imagesfrom the public domain. The exhibition's outdoor installation, "The Word Project: 26 Signs/52 Words," was first presented in 1992 at Wake Forest University. The work consists of 26 wooden signs posi­ tioned along selected campus pathways. The ...VOUR If COPE TO THE FUTURE signs, painted to resemble camouflage, have a word painted on each side. The signs are not intended tochallenge the viewer, but as a curios­ ity and mental exercise are designed to bring a myriad of subjective associations. "Blue Nine Cubic Foot Volume with At­ tached Surfaces" contains glossy, acrylic ovals attached to a matte wood surface with metal bolts. The ovals represent'mirrors or faces. The obvious hardware and ponderous groupings of cubes anchor the work as a solid, three-dimen­ sional construction very much in the temporal realm. "It's Massivel" aggressively enters the viewer's space with its metal basement-window well. "Diamond" is a gilded diamond floating on a red background. The work appears strictly formal and pictorial, communicating no con­ crete information. Any meaning is left to the viewer to define.

Its area is 218,178 square miles (565,078 sq. km.), nearly as large miles (565,078 sq. km.), nearly as large as the state of Texas. The east-west distance across the sea is about 350 miles (563 km.) and north-south it is more than 600 miles (966 km.). Located roughly between 52 and 60 degrees north latitude, the North Sea is frequently buffeted by severe winter storms. Most such storms are associ­ ated with winter cyclonic weather sys­ tems steered by the middle latitude jet stream. These counterclockwise-rotat­ ing storms are of the same type that pound the Pacific Northwest coast of the United States during the winter. The North Sea is one of the world's By NEAL G. LINEBACK Staff Writer A disaster struck the Shetland Is­ lands recently when an American tanker was blown aground, spilling crude oil onto one of the world's pristine ecosys­ tems. The tanker was of Liberian regis­ try, carrying Norwegian petroleum from the North Sea to Quebec, Canada. Al­ though this was clearly a classic inter­ national disaster, many wondered what an American tanker was doing in the North Sea. The North Sea is located between the island of Great Britain and Norway and Artist leading fishing grounds, as well as a a major petroleum producer. Most of the countries around its margins are en­ gaged incommercial fishing, and many commercial fish farming operations occur around its shores. In the 1960s petroleum production began from offshore rigs in the North Sea, accelerating rapidly in the 1970s and '80s. This development brought the United Kingdom and Norway from total dependence on foreign oil and gas to total self-reliance. The producing fields are mostly in two regions: one lying north-south near the center of the sea, and theother located between Great Britain and the Netherlands.

The men's club soccer team will travel to Warren Wilson College this weekend to compete in an indoor tour­ nament. "We have a pretty good pro­ gram. If we could just get some solid commitments and a 'real' coach it would really help," club president Mick McGuire said. McGuire commented that the team is currently coached by Aaron Bachertheimer and himself, bath of whom are Appalachian students. "It gejs kinda hard sometimes because I am only 19 years old and 1 am not exactly an authority figure. A realcoach would help us so much," McGuire said. The squad currently has 30 members and is still accepting anyone who is interested in playing. Other opponents this semester will include North Caro­ lina State, Wake Forest, and UNCGreensboro. Women's club soccer posted a 9-6 overall record last semester and a 3-1 conference record. The squad will travel to Warren Wilson College this week­ end tocompete in an indoor tournament and will also play at Brevard and Ten­ nessee-Chattanooga on February 1314 and February 26-27 respectively. With approximately 14 members, club president Erica Freas commented, "We hope to be good this season." The squad is coached by Dr. Bob Goddard. The men's club volleyball squad will host a tournament this weekend begin­ ning at 10 am on Saturday in the Quiim Recreational Center. Around 2 pm, the tournament will be moved to BroomeKirk Gym. Teams competing will in­ clude Auburn, Vanderbilt,Duke, UNCWilmington, and UNC-Chapel Hill. "We would really appreaciate any fan support this Saturday," cltib president Jonathan Merril said. Because no uni­ versities in the South have men's var­ sity volleyball, approximately 25 uni­ versities have formed the Southeastern Conference. In addition to Appalachian, the conference includes such schools as Auburn, Florida, Florida State, North Carolina State, and Tennessee. The squad is led by senior setters, Alan Hahn and Wade Hewitt andJoel Denny, who plays in the middle. Both Merril and Matt Biggers are strong for the squad on the outside. These five play­ ers have been together for three years. The men's volleyball team will also travel to Duke, Kentucky, and UNCChapel Hill for games throughout Feb- , ruary before heading to the nationals in Austin, TX on April 15-17. The squad finished 33rd in the nationals last sea­ son in a field of 72 teams. The women's club volleyball team recently finished second in a tourna­ ment in Durham, NC. The squad, which has approximately 7 members, will re­ turn to Durham on February 6 before heading to Gastonia on February 20for tournaments. "We are hoping to host a tournament, but if we do, it will be over spring break," club vice president Carmen Arkansassaid. Althoughmembers have dynamically decreased, the squad has gained a coach.

By SHANNON MCGINNIS Staff Writer and STACY BRANCH Staff Writer U 77 Personal bests achieved By PHIL McCARN Assistant Sports Editor Six men achieved personal bests on Jan. 22-23 as the Appalachian State men's indoor track team competed in theMarriott Invitational in Blacksburg, Va. The Mountaineers competed in the 30 team event that included excellent competition from schools such as UNCChapel Hill, North Carolina State Uni­ versity, Wake Forest, VMI, Clemson and Hampton University. Eric Roberts had a tremendous per­ formance in the meet by capturing fourth place in the 35-pound weight throw. Roberts 55'10" throw was good for his own personal best as well for placing him fourth all-time in ASU history. "This meet wasconsiderably tougher than last year," said ASU Head Coach A1 Fereshetian." Last year Eric won the 35-pound weight throw with (a dis­ tance of) 52 feet. This year he threw it over 55 feet and only finished fourth," Fereshetian added. Kevin Gladden, Ryan Thiel and Leander Watts also scored personal records for theMountaineers. Gladden did so by throwing the 35-pound weight 47 feet whileThiel recorded a leap of 6' 6" in the high jump event. Watts advance to the semi-finals of the 55 meter dash with a time of 6.38. Paul Stalschmidt also recorded his personal best with a lime of 53.1 in the 400 meters. Tony Turner followed Stalschmidt for the Apps with a time of 54.1. Appalachian was represented by Ja­ son Gibson in the semi-finals of the 55 meter hurdles. Other Mountaineers who performed well include Brian Miesch, with a 15:25 in the 5,000 meter event. Billy Pemberton also did well with a time of 15:28 in the same event.

On the back of the brochure, at the bottom of the page, I read that Kole's appearance was sponsored by the Campus Crusade for Christ. Why would the Campus Crusade for Christ be sponsoring the appearance of an illusionist, unless that illusionist had some sort of sermon included as part of his appearance? The answer: they wouldn't. After fooling the audience with illusions for about an hour, Kole stopped the show. We were about to enter the third and final part of the show, he said. He explained to us that the third part of his show was the spiritual part of the show, and that anyone who would feel uncomfortable with his forthcoming sermon would t is so great about Boone, N.C.?

"d your letters to The Appalachian, Box 9025, or stop by the office on the second * of the Student Union. human beings, eventually reaching a state of perfec­ tion. This was all a hoax, he said. Kole asked the audience, "Do you not think, that as long as humans have been on the earth, that by now there would be at least one person who has been reincarnated enough so that they would now be per­ fect?" Kole told us that his next illusion was a seeming feat of levitation, which any god-like person in New Age religion should easily be able toperform. He then told us that he was offering a $25,000 reward for any person, the worldover, that could really perform an act of levitation. Kole's reasoning was then revealed: if New Age religions really are worth their salt, a god-like human being could simply show him an act of levitation and prove it to everybody. Then, that god-like human could collect his reward money and be $25,000 richer. I thought about this a little bit. If I were a god-like person in a New Age religion, why in the world would I want to put myself up as a museum exhibit for just a paltry $25,000 of worldly money. My reasoning: I wouldn't. If I had indeed reached the perfection of a god, I would care for nothingmore than to be left alone by non-believers like Kole. Kole seemed to dismiss this point. From now on, I suggest publicity flyers for Andre Kole carry the following warning label: "Warning: The advertised show will contain one-sided argu­ ments based upon unsound logic and erroneous sup­ positions in an attempt to further the beliefs of Chris­ tianity. Any person lacking finely honed critical thinking skills should attend only with extreme cau­ tion, lest brainwashing may.occur." Readers urge responsibility and tolerance Toleration of sexual orientation needed . To the Editor: Students and Faculty: have a chance to duck out and of the auditorium during 15-minute intermission. As a last-ditch effort to per­ suade people who didn't want to hear his spiritual message to stay, Kole then tempted us with a list of all of the good tricks that we would be missing if we did indeed chose to duck out now. I didn't care what good tricks I was going to be missing, I decided that in order for me not to lose my cool, I would have to be one of the people who would have to leave during the 15- minute intermission, before Kole was supposed to go into his spiel. While I waited for the lights to come up, Kole prematurely went into a mini-spiel, causing me to lose my cool any way. Kole told us that he had traveled around the world seeking answers to the questions of supernatural real­ ity, but the only answer that he had found was that they were all a hoax. He had heard of tales of levitation, reincarnation, and other so-called "New Age" phe­ nomena, but when he arrived to investigate these reports firsthand, the only thing that he saw was powerful people deceiving less powerful people through illusion. Kole even immodestly told us that if we really wanted to see how wrong all of the New Age religions were, we could buy a copy of his book, on sale in the lobby for a special show price of only five dollars. Kole explained New Age religions like this: They are religions which claim that people are their own gods, and that people can do god-like things if only they can get in touch with their god-like existence. In the New Age religions, people believe that when they die, they will be reincarnated as slightly more perfect It is January, and the year is 1993.

It was a very special A.A. because this particular meeting was in honor of sobriety milestones reached by several members, among them, my mother. My sister and I proudly stood and presented our mother with her "seven-year chip," a token represent­ ing outstanding achievement. You see, eight years ago my family was almost destroyed by alcholoism. Mother was a "closet drinker." But soon the monster of alcoholism outgrew the closet and threatened our family with certain destruction. We are now indebted to the A.A. program and the people who make it work. As I sat at this meeting, I looked around thankfully. People from all walks of life were there—workmen. still wearing dusty boots, business­ men, school officials, church elders and infants. College graduates, bearing their class rings from a generation ago, were there as well. I suddenly struck me how inevitable the passing of time is, and with it our certainty of aging. I wondered to myself how many of my college buddies would one day be here, picking up the pieces of families torn by alcoholism and reminiscing about the younger days when drinking was nothing but fun. I continued to watch and listen as this group humbled themselves before each other, giving and receiving the love and support vital to their victory over alcoholism. I was so deeply moved, I felt an urgency to return here to ASU and issue a plea to each of you to drink wisely, or do not drink at all. Be careful! There is much more at risk here than a hangover in class tomorrow. No one ever plans to become an alcoholic when he or she takes that first drink. My mother certainly didn't. Remember that decisions you make now are very important to your future. Not just those big decisions, like choosing a major. But also those little decisions, like taking one too many drinks. Not only do we owe it to ourselves to be careful, but we also owe it to our families and friends. As each A.A. member thanks his or her "higher power," I thank my higher power, Jesus Christ, for my mother's seven-year sobriety birthday. And for all of you who have a loved one in the A.A. program, keep taking it one day at a time. Please take advice from a survivor of the life-threatening disease of alcoholism, and reconsider your drinking habits. Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.

Plans call for grading to :completed by April for the facility, Ihich will be located off Bodenheiiricr Drive around the former Edgewood parking lot. Construction is scheduled to begin sometime in late spring. The addition of this building will add ap­ proximately 300 new housing spaces for students. the renovation and expansion of Newland Hall are set to begin in May. The new facility and the expansion of Newland will allow ASU to house 43 percent of its students, up from the current 28 percent. Two other projects, the renovation of Gardner and Coltrane lobbies,and "I think the addition of the new building is a great idea,"says freshman Carlota Clevenger. "It is so frustrating having to live in the dorms when they are so overcrowded." Overcrowding was a problem last semester when lack of spaces caused some students to be housed in lobbies, and some students to have to live three to a room. A student forum on residence hall visitation policy change was held Sun­ day night in the Pub. The forum washeld to allow students the chance to speak out about the pro­ posed changes in visitation for next year. After the forum, the CRS A mem­ bers voted to accept the current pro­ posal to extend visitation hours. The proposal introduced two new options, B+, which extends visitation until 12 A.M. Sunday-Thursday, and gives 24hour visitation on weekends, and B++, which extends weekday hours to 2A.M. and gives 24-hour visitation on week­ ends. The proposal allows current C option building to remain as they are, but allows theother buildings to vole on their visitation options. Lovill, Bclk, and Frank hallswill beallowed tochoose from B, B+, and B++ options, while the other buildings will be able to choose from B+, B++, and C options. Each building would conduct voting around the third week of the semester, and 2/3 of the building must vote for an option in order for it to pass. Both Rick Geis of the Office of Resi­ dence Life, and Vice-Chancellor for Student Development Greg Blinding were present at the meeting. During the debate Geis said the new options would not be implemented thissemester. Geis told the group that the timing was not right to implement a pilot project this semester. The majority of the students said they were unhappy with the current visitation options, and seemed in favor of the more liberal options. "College is supposed to be a place where we come to grow and learn", says junior Jennifer Roy. "By not allowing us to make our own choices, they aren't giving us a chance to learn." Geis and Blinding both addressed the audience, reminding them that al­ though many people were in favor of extending visitation, they must remem­ ber that it is important to make sure that everyone's rights are protected. Stu­ dents were also assured that their opin­ ions were heard and would be taken into consideration.

The accreditation *aluates the university's undergradule. master's and specialist degree pro­ as well as the university as a 'hole, The UNC system and the federal nent require universities to be dited every ten years. Without acditation, universities are not eligible for federal student loans. "If you're not accredited, you're out of business," said Dr. James Smith, directorof theSAC self-study and math­ ematics chairperson. Denial of reaccreditation was unlikely for Appa­ lachian added Smith. The accreditation process begins with a self-study of the university involving faculty, administrators and students. Committees evaluated various areas and departments of the university through­ out the two-year study. Smith described the process as a chance to "look at ourselves and improve the univer­ sity." Catalogs and research findings were sent to SACS periodically. Once the self-study was complete, a 19-member SACS committee visited the university to verify the self-study. From Aug. 31Sept. 3,1993, the committee evaluated areas of institutional purpose andeffec­ tiveness, theeducational program, edu­ cational support service, administra­ tive process and financial health at the university. "In many ways this visit was a model exercise in accreditation. The univer­ sity offered an exemplary self-study," the SACS report said. "What is equally clear from the self-study and the visit is that members of the faculty and staff take high pleasure in their association with the university." Along with the evaluation, SACS made 14 recommendations for ASU. They include:implementing assessment procedures to assess educational out­ comes and improve institutional effec­ tiveness; remedy unevenness in plan­ ning and evaluation across the institu­ tion; use evaluation results more effec­ tively to improve programs, services and operations; regularly evaluate li­ brary services and collections; and de­ velop and implement a plan to ad­ equately support library collections and data bases. The recommendations will be ad­ dressed said Smith. Some will take longer to implement than others. Along with the recommendations were 17 suggestions by SACS. Those included: study the particular needs of graduate students, and make appropri­ ate changes; continue to m ake strenu­ ous efforts to hire and retain minority and women faculty members and ad­ ministrators; and consider means to provide expanded computing resources for faculty and students, and ensure more uniform access. "I came away with a reinforced feel­ ing that this [Appalachian] is a good university and a good place to work," said Smith. The accreditation is an ongoing pro­ cess for the university. Even though SACS accredited Appalachian, the university is required to send yearly progress reports on the recommenda­ tions made by SACS. After five years, the university will send an extensive progressive report to SACS. Three years later, the process begins again. The SACS report is available to the public.

Jhe number of students receiving ^al assistance to pay for college increased significantly between 1970 and 1990. "In constant 1990 dollars, student borrowing under the guaranteed loan program more than tripled, from $4.3 billion in 197071 to $14 billion last year," the report said. Grants more than doubled over the same period, from $5.7 billion to $13 billion. "Twenty years ago, more student aid was given in the form of grants than in loans, but today the reverse is true," said Charles Andersen, a senior staff association with the American Council on Education. Nor is the situation expected to im­ prove. The 1992 amendments to the Higher Education Act raised annual and cumulative loan limits for students borrowing under the federal guaran­ teed loan programs, and also changed some income limits to make more middle-class students eligible for grants.

The second annual, General-Assemblymandated second annual report card commended the public university system for increases in retention rates and Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores. The report also pointed out deficiences in graduation rates in the system. The UNC system had an 83 percent retention rate of freshmen in 1990 compared to 76 percent in 1980. Appalachian'sretcntion rate was above the system's average at 86.3 percent in 1990. In other figures, transfers from com­ munity colleges to the UNC system rose 26 percent from 1990 to 1991. Also, freshman SAT scores are steadily increasing each year in the universities. Appalachian's average SAT scores for Fall 1991 were 971. The study cited a 28 percent fouryear graduationrate in the system, mean­ ing university students do not complete a degree within four years. As a result the UNC Board of Governors passed a resolution making it easier for students to obtain a four-year degrej. " The Board of Governors are requir­ ing universities to limit hours needed for a degree to 128. If a department feels they cannot limit their hour re­ quirements to 128, the board must ap­ prove the specific program and the pro­ gram must publicly announce that it is a five-year program. Appalachian passed a similar resolu­ tion last spring. "We [Appalachian] were a step ahead of the Board of Gov­ ernors," said Durham. The university should be in compli­ ance with the Board of Governors' reso­ lution by next fall, said Durham. However, five degrees associated with teacher education preparation will not be limited to 128 hours. Degrees in business education, health education, industrial arts, physical education and vocational education will be classified as five-year programs by the university. The departments felt the hours could not be cut without losing needed courses, explained Durham. The resolution is intended to increase the graduation rate and to cut cost asso­ ciated with five-year students. Gradua­ tion rates have been a continuing prob­ lem for the legislature, the Board of Governors and the universities said Dr. Harvey Durham, Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs.The legislaturehas a primarily economic concern in the is­ sue added Durham. $2,200. "With continuing pressures on the federal budget likely to restrict the size of increases in federal grant programs, it seems likely that significant growth in federally funded student aid pro­ grams will be found only in the loan programs," the report concluded. A greater reliance on borrowing could make it harder for minority and lowincome students to attend college, the report said. "The trend toward increased borrow­ ing by greater numbers of students will pose a major challenge to President­ elect Clinton as he seeks to reshape the federal loan program," said Robert Atwell, council president. F EPORTS HR! Weapons confiscated Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Appalachian police confiscated a 25 caliber automatic weapon from Room 204 in Cone residence hall Sat­ urday afternoon. A resident reported the weapon belonged to her room­ mate. The roommate was out of town, but left the weapon in plain view ac­ cording to police. University police issued the out-of-town roommate a campus citation and referred the per­ son to student court. Further investi­ gation is pending until the alleged owner comes back to town and speaks to police said Captain Larry Foster. Another weapon was confiscated by police Wednesday. An anonymous caller told police a resident in Room 331 Justice Hall possessed a B. B. Pellet Gun. Police approached the resi­ dent, issued a university citation and reported the incident tostudent court. An ASU student was assaulted Wednesday at Savannah Joe's and at the ASU infirmary. The white male was hit by another maleat the bar and then followed to the infirmary where a similar incident occurred. The stu­ dent was treated at the infirmary and released. Boone police filed an as­ sault report for the Savannah Joe's incident The student, however, did not want ASU police to charge the alleged attacker. A Coltrane resident was taken to 24 hour lock-up shortly after mid­ night Saturday. Fifth floor residents contacted police to assist an "out of control" resident. Police found the student intoxicated and with abra­ sions on his face. The student refused medical attention and was charged See WEAPONS page 2 �2 The Appalachian Tuesday. Januar\ 26 /9Q?

Knutson has taught at Appalachian since Janu­ ary 1991.She had previously been a professor at several schools in the midwestern part of the United States, such as the University of South Dakota and the University of Minnesota. She enjoys the East Coast, however, appreciating Boone's beauty and climate. Knutson presently teaches "Argumentation and Advocacy" and "Interpersonal Communi­ cation" in ASU's communication department. She considers teaching one of her best accom­ plishments. "I enjoy working with students," she said. "It's nice to watch them develop academically and personally." Besides teaching, Knutson is also the director of forensics at Appalachian. The forensics pro­ gram is a long time tradition as it is in its fifty-third year at the university. It includes debating competitions as well as individual events, such as competitive and extemporane­ ous speaking. The forensics team travels all over the South­ east to compete. Knutson helps the students prepare for competition and accompanies them as they travel. According to Knutson, the forensics team offers "good educational and social training." Any student is welcome to participate in the program regardless of experience or amount of time the student would be willing to devote to the team.

Students amazed by illusionist Andre Kole By JOHN HEISEL Staff Writer In a bellow of smoke and lights, the stage of Farthing Auditorium transformed on Wednes­ day night to a realm of fantasy and illusion. Andre Kole performed his world famous illu­ sionist act before the packed audienceof dazzled students, parents, children and the sponsoring members of Campus Crusade for Christ. He shrunk a woman down to half her size, jumped into a revolving fan, produced coins from the air, condensed two people into a single box, levitated, lowered into an occupied box and vanished a miniature model of the Statue of Liberty. I was amazed by his illusions of thesupernatu­ ral world and a bit perplexed in not being able to figure out any of the tricks. Nevertheless, the magic appeared real and convincing. Beyond the challenges and exposes, Kole transformed the auditorium into a sanctuary during the final acts through prayer and the preaching ofhispersonalfeelings towards Chris­ tianity. He spoke of how "true Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with God. Christ is not what man does for God but what God does for man." Through his positive message of magic and faith, Kole inspired and astonished members of the audience by praying and reading from the Bible. The words of Christ and the Bible are signifi­ cant, yet should not be taken as fact but meta­ phors for understanding the great mystery of the universe, according to Kole. All religions interrelate through their com­ mon archetypes and themes, and one should not overlook the religions of Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Islam and the other thousands that all worship similar gods through different names and beliefs. The unity of all things is the answer to the mystery which Kole presented through his preachings of Christianity and New Age beliefs. Furthermore, Kole presented an astounding, almost unbelievable show of illusion, magic and wonder, causing one to question the reality of the supernatural world.

Quotes are often used to introduce a poem or an entire section of poems. Some poems show Southern dialect so that the reader can get a sense of how it would actually sound coming from a Southerner. Herdman also uses an "echoing effect" almost like a song's refrain to merge together two different thoughts such as in her poem "Spotting." Paren­ thetical inserts are used to show an after­ thought from themes ranging from childhood to old age. Herdman's sense of humor isdefinitely one of her strongpoints. From her poem titled"Sleepin' All Alone in My Big Brass Bed Ain't Near' As Bad As Mama Always Made It Out Ta Be"to her source of inspiration she defined as "having a deadline," anyone who has grown up in the South can see the realism.At the same time, she allows the readers to laugh at themselves in a non-demoralizing way. Herdman uses little rhyme or crafted poetic techniques, yet her work still captures the imag­ ery necessary for a good poet. Her work speaks especially to Southern females, yet anyone in­ terested in the Southern way of life can catch a glimpse of how it really is in the South by reading Herdman. Her poems focus on real life situations seen through the eyes of a naive child and continues throught the life of a woman up until old age. Her themes are universal, yet are sprinkled with the spice of the south. Herdman currently resides in Savannah, Geor­ gia. "Sunday's Child" is published by Xanthus Press.

There were no really fresh ideas. Everything was either a remake, sequel orripoff. Some movies were really good, but none of them were exceptional. I tried to think of the ten best films of the year, after a serious migraine, I settled for the top five. Keep in mind that I did not see every movie that came out, if I did then I couldn't afford to go here. 5. Micheal Mann's stunning "The Last of the Mohicans" is one of the best historical adventure films to come out in recent memory. Daniel Day-Lewis gave a wonderful performance as Hawkeve. WesSn,Hi 2! Hawkeye. Wes Studi had the role of the psychotic Magua andhedelivered dead on. A treat for the eyes, ears and mind. 4. Robert Altman ("M*A*S*H" the movie) bit the hand that feeds him and laughed his head off. The hand belongs to Hollywood, a place that is of dry ideas. "The Player" stars Tim Robbins as a crass and self-centered but interest­ ing movie executive who gets into all sorts of trouble. Moviestars make cam­ eos throughout, most notably Whoopi Goldberg, Bruce Willis and Julia Rob­ erts. A comedy, drama, murder mys­ tery and spoof all in one great movie. 3. Disney just can't seem to fail. They had hits with "The Little Mer­ maid and Beauty and the Beast," now they have "Aladdin". This masterpiece has a boy,'a g*': ""S10 carPets. villains "!*. . V ! girl, magic carpets, villains and lots of talking animals, the basics for an animated movie. There is one extra treat: a big blue genie with the voice of Robin Williams. This great actor steals the show and has outdone almost every other performance of the year, just by using his voice. I wish half of the movies were this fun. 2. He's baaack. No, not Arnold or the brat from "Home Alone," but Clint Eastwood. His comeback is the mor­ bid drama-western "Unforgiven". Eastwood directed, starred, produced and composed a portion of the music score (Eat yourheart outKevin Costner). We are shown a dark and often violent west. One of the most powerful scenes r c ::=;;r:rrrr g ; in the movie is when Eastwood's char­ acter, a bounty hunter, shoots a thug, 0nly only to realize that he is a teen-ager. Excellent performances through out, especially Gene Hackman's demented "justice"-serving sheriff. 1. When I leave the movie theatre the only thing on my mind is usually "Where's the car?". Only one movie this year still had me in its trance when I was in the parking lot. Spike Lee's long, moving, spectacular "Malcolm X" was the most thought provoking movie of the year. I learned more about American society and views in three hours then I did in 12 years of school. Denzel Washington ("Glory") plays Malcolm X with grace and coiled an­ ger. A great historical bio-epic that will be rememberer! for vears. Unfortu­ nately, come Oscar time "Malcolm X" will not be a big winner. You know Hollywood's motto: We don't know Hollywood s motto. We don t know talent from a hole in the ground, money on the other handHonorable Mentions: "A League of Their Own", "A Few Good Men" and Bram Stroker's "Dracula". The worst of the year were a lot easier to pick. "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" was about as much fun as having a stake driven through your heart. I can't be­ lieve Donald Sutherland went from "JFK" to "Buffy". It tried to be a horror, comedy and spoof all at the same time, but the combination backfired. Everyone knows I am a big fan of "Twin Peaks" the television series. I was excited about the movie "Twin kkes?

By KELLIE WELBORN Staff Writer Dillon Fence As rave takes over fashion with clogs and Theater internships < platform shoes, many wonder if it's just a fad professional experier (C*DC"\ \\T (CPS) Want •„ 1 *1 first on your to be the c campus to set the trends? Well, take a power nap, down a smart drink, slap on your clogs and prepare to "rave on" in 1993 to the newest fads springing up around the nation. One of the most intriguing trends sweeping the nation is the new night life off-campus. Raves have blossomed at warehouses and other large hide­ aways as spontaneous underground parties that are often advertised on fli­ ers just hours before the fun begins. Party promoters, known as "crews," put on shows featuring hypnotic, pul­ sating music, ranging from hip hop to house to techno music. The trend, which originated in En­ gland, has spread to the West and East Coasts and other major metropolitan cities in the United States. While many ravers simply dance and enjoy the music, others combine the experience with the illegal psychedelic drug called ecstasy. The drug suppos­ edly adds to the atmosphere of theevent, which can befairly bizarre. Often, raves can last all night long, with the dancers spinning themselves into a state of al­ tered consciousness. In fact, some ravers use the word "spiritual" to describe the group experience. "This one rave I went to was called 'Shiva's Erotic Banquet,"' said Tina Farahnik, 18, a sophomore at Califor­ nia State University, Northridge. Farahnik paid $20 for the experience. "There was a whole bunch of people. There was a dance room, strobe light rooms, a body paint room, a Timothy Leary reading. There were people go­ ing around trying to feed you fruits and Ever Get A Pol Med? htih cJl/(rs U "HAS,!!! fBIEWDS Don 111 FRIENDS DRIVE DRUNK. U.S. Department of Transportation T 111 W' grapes. Raving apparel may vary, although stocking caps, whistles around theneck, black outerwear, bell-bottom jeans,plat­ form shoes—anything with the '70s look—are common. The experiences may be hard to recall in the morning. "I went to (a rave) that was outside at a farm," said one student, who asked not to be identified. "I think there were cows or something. I really don't re­ member much." Raving is not the only fad to surface recently. To help rejuvenate those memory cells, young people have be­ gun to guzzle "smart drinks," a new trend in beverages that contain amino acids and other natural ingredients de­ signed to induce chemical reactions in the brain that are supposed to make you think clearer. While some dismiss the idea as a "pet rock" type trend that will fade, others are taking it more seriously. "I have a friend who wants toopen a'smart bar,'" said Beatrice Makabeh, 19, a student at Cal State, Northridge. Another new drink that is appealing to student's natural instincts is "Zim'a," a clear, filtered malt liquor that tastes like citrus-flavored mineral water. Perhaps the best thing about many of the new trends is that they don't cost a lot of money. Many are new twists on "reverb" (reverberation) trends from the past. Fashion is one of those categories, particularly when it comes to shoes. While shoe stores across the country are ordering Birkenstock sandals to catch up with last year's trend, some females are digging into their parent's closets and pulling out their old plat­ form shoes, go-go boots and clogs from the 1970s. "The '70s is totally in now," says Brooke Haber, 19, a Cal State, Northridge student who sports a black winter coat to match a sexy "beatnik"style long black haircut and rose-col­ ored lipstick. For futuristic-minded pedestrians, rollerblades not only remain popular, they have evolved into a sport. Rollerblade hockey leagues are spring­ ing up on California campuses. And if that's not enough of a kick for an athlete, fans of "hackcy sack," a melonsized wicker ball, may soon have something to jump for joy about—again. Sepak takraw, a Far Eastern game of hackey sack volleyball, is drawing in young athletes. Played with a low net, the game lets players literally kick with their feet, butt with their heads—what­ ever it takes—to get the ball over the net without using hands or arms. Another foreseeable trend is less pain­ ful and more practical. If you are one of those who has problems reading your own class notes, get ready for the next brainstorm in artificial intelligence. Available sometime in 1993, students can buy a small, portable electronic notepad that translates your scribbles into the English language. It even trans­ lates graphics for those pie charts your instructor always draws on the chalk­ board. "I think that's going to be a killer item. It's one of the things I think stu­ dents are going to like," said Danny Marder, 22, a salesman at a computer store that caters to Students in L.A ¥)u're smart enough to write about AliceWalker's use of African storytelling traditions. And you're still smoking? . Sometimes, translating notes is not half as hard as translating the trendy, new slang words. Some California stu­ dents provided us with a taste of slang words that are now catching on, al­ though, thanks to MTV, yoiMriay have already heard some of them. The new slang could be particularly handy for social occasions. Beautiful women, for instance, are now complimented as "nectar." Handsome males are "fine" or "freaks." Unattrac­ tive people are "to the curve." Flirting is "workin* it." Making out is "mash­ ing" or "grinding." The new slang words also describe good and bad events. Good events or things are "dope." Bad events or things are "weak sauce.""Right on" is "that's sweet." "That's awesome" is "that's the bomb." "That's awful" is "that's trifling."People who"got dogged" had an embarrassing moment. When some­ thing is stolen, someone "jacked" it. If this trendy forecast feels too over­ whelming to remember it all, don't get "frusty" (a new slang for frustrated). In fact, there s a new California trend that help you cope with this stress, as well as many of the other stresses of being a student. It's called the "power nap." "Power-napping is a big thing," said a 21-year-old student at California State University, Chico, who identified him­ self only as Jason. Taking 15- and 30-minute snoozes during the day is definitely a trend, according to Jason. "You've been in class, you've got a break, you go home and take a nap, you feel better. That's along the wellness theme. That's defi­ nitely a '90s type of thing." ASU News Bureau Theatre majors at Appalachian State University nqw have thechance to work with a professional theatre company, thanks to internship opportunities with Charlotte Repertory Theatre. Through an agreement between Appalachian's department of theatre and dance and the Charlotte theatre company, junior and senior theatre majors can intern in the areas of direct­ ing, stage management, design, drama­ turgy and business management. Stage management interns can earn member­ ship candidacy status in Actor's Eq­ uity. Appalachian has had an association with the Charlotte theatre company for the past five years. Several graduates have worked as actors, designers and technicians with the company. It also regularly performs in Boone as part of An Appalachian Summer. A resolution adopted by the board of trustees of the repertory theatre says, This program will serve as the prototype by which other professional the­ atres in the region w: cooperative ventures and. nerships with colleges ties."

Brandon Bom led UT-C with 20 points, while Gary Robb was good for 18. The Mountaineers returned home on Saturday for another league tilt with East Tennesse State University. The Buccaneers, who shared space with Georgia Southern on top of the SC going into the game, scored a98-79 win at Varsity Gym. Ross again led the Mountaineers in scoring with 24 points and 10 boards, followed by Jeff Williams with 15 points. The Bucs went on a 14-2 run at the 9:52 mark of the second half to blow the game open after leading by only five points at the intermission. "We are disappointed in the game," said Apke. "We did not play as badly as the score would indicate, we just couldn't get them to miss and we had trouble hitting our shots." The Mountaineers shot only 33 per­ cent in the second half, including a mere 11 percent from three-point range. ETSU, on the other hand, hit 56 per­ cent of their shots in thecontest, includ­ ing half of their three-point attempts for the game.

Appalachian State started off the weekend at Hanner Fieldhouse in Statesboro, GA where they were de­ feated by Georgia Southern, 96-77. Junior forward Angela Crosby led ASU with 31 points. Sophomore guard Beth Kilby added 17 points for ASU while senior forward Regina Ikard chipped in 12 points and six rebounds. Freshman guard Shannon Spencer added ten assists and six rebounds for the Lady Mountaineers. Despite the efforts of the Lady Apps, the Lady Eagles' scoring attack was simply too strong. Georgia Southern was led by junior forward Monique McClelland with 21 points and six rebounds. Four other players were also in double figures for the Lady Eagles. "They did not miss any shots so it was cliff cult for us to get any rebounds," ASU Head Coach Linda Robinson said.

After falling to Georgia Southern, Appalachian State travelled to Maclellan Gym in Chattanooga, TN hoping to rebound from a loss in Statesboro. The Lady Mountaineers came up short as the Lady Moccasins took the game, 84-77. Senior guard Sheryl Lynch led the Lady Apps with 20 points while Ikard, Crosby and Kilby also placed in double figures with 15,14 and 11 respectively. Ikard added 10 rebounds for Appala­ chian while Crosby chipped in an addi­ tional seven. The Lady Mocs were paced by the scoring of senior forward Kim Brown who accumulated 21 points and eight rebounds and junior forward Tammy Dowdell with 19 points. The Lady Apps were picked to finish third in the conference behind Tennes­ see-Chattanooga and Furman. ASU defeated UNC-Greensboro,9161 last Wednesday evening in Boone. Lynch led the team with 23 points while Crosby chipped in 21. Spencer led the team in assists with nine while both Lynch and Ikard had eight rebounds for the Lady Apps. ASU will host Furman and Western Carolina this weekend in games slated to begin at 2 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday in Varsity Gym. .PoosfT *T* tin' v ASU beats No. 18 Clemson has scored in double figures in every contest this year. This past week was no different. In a win against Davidson on Sunday, Jan. 17 Ross over­ came a one-for-ten shooting performance in the first half to pour in 26 points. On Jan. 20 at UT-Chatanooga, he was good for 28 points and in Saturday's loss to ETSU, Ross played all but one minute of the game while scoring 24 points and pulling down 10 rebounds. "I think Billy Ross has worked very hard during his four years at Appalachian," said Mountaineer head coach Tom Apke. "He has definately developed into a premier player in the Southern Conference and is getting some attention from some organizations in the NBA." "Billy was a high school center," added Apke, " and he really had to develop his game facing the basket. Now, I believe, that he is the best three-point shooter in the league." Ross also leads the SC in three-point goals per game, has the fourth best three-point shooting percentage in the league, and ranks fourth in free-throw percentage. The Mountaineer line-up included Ross in all but 14 minutes of action last week. A sign that Apke s confidence in him is very strong. Ross takes his show to Cullowhee, NC on Wednesday as the Apps take on the Catamounts of Western Carolina, then its back home for a rematch with UT-C. By KRISTOPHER FLOYD Staff Writer The Appalachian Slate wrestling squad took down the 18th ranked Clemson Tigers, 21-16 this past week­ end in Clemson, SC. The win was the first ever for the Mountaineers over the Tigers in a se­ ries of 10 matches. "This was a very big victory for us," said ASU Head Coach Paul Mance. "To defeat a nationally ranked squad on the road is great. Everyone put forth a solid effort and I am really proud of the entire team." Appalachian State's John Reynolds captured the 190-pound title by defeat­ ing Scott Engel, 3-0 to put the Moun­ taineers ahead by a 17-16margin late in the match. ASU sealed the win when heavyweight Melvin Crosby took a 101 victory over Trey Gardner. Ranked third by Amateur Wrestling News (AWN), ASU's Donne11 Rawls came back after last week'sdefeat as he took down Troy Bouzakis, 9-2. Bouzakis is currently ranked eighth by the AWN. Other winners for the Mountaineers included Victor Balmeceda, Corey Creech and Bill Baker. Balmeceda took the 142-pound divi­ sion with a 13-5 win over Mike Veech. Creech won the 158-pound division as he slipped past Chris Donegan, 4-2. Baker defeated John Gardner, 9-3, in the 167-pound division. "The kids really did well. A couple of our guys lost to some of the top wrestlers in the nation, but everyone gave it their all," Mance said. Clemson took an early lead in the match when Sam Henson, ranked third in the nation in the 118-pound division, pinned ASU's Mike Orris. The win was the 21st consecutive win for Henson this season.

In many cases, this situation causes barriersamong family mem­ itkT' bers because the kids do not understand that their parents are trying to provide for them; they don't understand how tough it is for their parents. Children tend to end up feeling that their parents do not care about them, which in most cases is not true, so the children take the well-worn path of rebellion. Children, in most cases, are the root of the problem in lack of family values. They havelittle, if any, respect for their parental units until they are older, which often times is too late to salvage. Now, I am not saying all children, but a good many of them do feel this way. Of course, it is not the children's fault, but it has to do with influences such as television. Children's program­ ming tends to be misleading and very far from the truth. For instance, on one side of the coin you have The Smurfsland Gamp Candy, where a problem arises, and myim mthtdm the etajfmty U tmcM M uition increases hould support INC schools 1 loncy spent to pay for a college education should pay for the college cation, not roads, hospitals and jails. However, if the North Carolina ;islature approvesa proposed tuition and fee increase, students may substanly increase their monetary support of these areas. Tiere is one big problem with this increase. Tuition and fees students think for their education does not all go toward education. This money is put in leral fund for the state that pays for road improvements, hospitals, health and the penal system. iparently legislators have thrown the state constitution idea of a"free as far actical" higher education out the window, saying students already have a Irgain" in education. Many legislators believe they are justified in raising ion and fees to compare with other similar states, itthe state legislature's request a team of auditors completed its audit of the th Carolina government to try to determine how it could cut costs and ance revenues. The team recommended increasing undergraduate tuition fees 25 percent and increasing graduate and professional school fees 50 cent. Undergraduate students in the UNC system currently pay $819 on ;rage in tuition and academic fees each year. If the increase is approved, this nber would raise to an average of $1350 over the next five years. Raising tuition and fees is not a problem if the money then goes toward 'roving the schools, not paving a road.With asmany complaints as thereare budget short cuts and loss of funds for supporting a university, legislators mid realize that any new money raised from students should be used to help students. before raising tuition and fees, legislators should reconsider their options, basing tuition without a corresponding improvement in schools does not aefit anyone. When fees are raised and taken out of the university system ne students will not be able to afford a college education, while the students Q remain will not receive an improved education. Legislators should be ^ing to create better quality universities, not use students as a sponge for funds. -'is proposal should be carefully reconsidered before it is adopted. If fees st be raised, they should go toward supporting the colleges and universities e North Carolina system, not be buried in a general fund. by Scott-Allen Pierson 3rave New Whirl SMOK/NG] 0 SECTION! o u u> l/l pa Distributed by Tribune Media Services ASU The Pos -r OfR'te. <Wl (,'• no mduv go** be r* 0,r in half an hour they come out with a candy-coated happy ending. On the other side of the coin, there are the terribly violent cartoons like G.I. Joe and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which give kids the impression that war and killing are good. In the middle of the coin are such cartoons as Ren and Stimpy and The Simpsons, which are close facsimiles of reality, but are geared for adults and controversial to some. Since children spend most of their time in front of the idiot box, their realities are so distorted that they do not know how to feel. This causes great problems with family values because children are more or less car­ toons themselves, unable to relate properly with their parents. Also, the education system does not do a good job of promoting family values. Of course, school is not the place to learn about family, but the school could operate as if they were a home, enforcing rules from more of a parental stand point, rather than that of a prison. Instead of causing neutrality by going against the parents, educators should work as surrogate par­ ents. I am not suggesting the removal of discipline, because discipline is needed in the schools just as it is in the home. But schools need not be so strict. For example, many schools enforce dress codes and do not allow fraternizing in the halls between classes. If the parents allow them to wear certain clothes, or hang out with their friends at free times, then so should the schools in order to promote consistency and prevent confusion. In the recent presidential election, there was a good deal of emphasis put on family values. Big deal! How can one trust politicians when they have lied to us so often in the past? It is time for change, as each candidate stated, but how can we be sure that change will occur? I do not want to seem skeptical, but after the heaping helping of horse manure that George Bush has fed us, I can not help but be a little skeptical. Hey Bush, read my lips, "No More White House". I hope that Bill Clinton will be as good a president as he thinks he will be because the morale of families in America can not handle another four years of Bush or Reagan in sheep's clothing. The government has overlooked the people far too long, and it has taken its toll on families everywhere. I know that I am not always the perfect child. I try to help my parents, but nowhere near as much as I should. I do realize the situation my parents are in, and have known this for a very long time. Sometimes they donot realize that I know and understand, but then again, maybe I do not show it well enough. Yet, I feel that my family has many strong values. They struggle to pro­ vide my sister and me with whatever we need. They support all of our endeavors, and they are proud of us no matter what the outcome happens to be. We have a very true and deep love for one another, even though we may not show it all of the time. Each of us tries to do whatever we can for the other, because we realize that we all must work together. Although my family may not be perfect, I hope that someday we will be a sign of the times; that more families will take heed of what I have said and strive to make their families strong. What can be done to save family values? Well, the most important thing is to work together. I realize that it is sometimes hard to obey your parents, and parents have problems understanding their children, but all you have to do is work together. If parents overlook their children, and kids insist on rebelling, then family values will definitely be a thing of the past. But if parents and children put away their petty selfishness, instead, and end the hopeless struggle for power, then family will once again be the stronghold of the Ameri­ can Way. Are women really fit for armed forces? No hysteria needed in liquor vote To the Editor: The last weeks I have read so much Vote No propaganda regarding the Liquor-By-The-Drink Referendum that I thought it might be a good time for a little reality check. The Vote No coalition has taken on this Stalin-like logic trying to disillusion residents and students. They make it sound as if LBTD will have these profound, horrid effects on Boone. In the town where I am from, Pinehurst NC, the addition of LBTD had a major impact in making it one of the nicest golf resorts on the East Coast. And LBTD has hardly made Blowing Rock a town notorious for its topless dancers and prostitution. All in all, the Vote No people have gone entirely overboard. Their facts are often baffling. Repeatedly they have claimed that LBTD will directly cause police officers to work overtime chasing drunk drivers. Well folks, I know it is no news flash, but alcohol is alcohol is alcohol and drunk is drunk. It does not matter whether ypu are intoxicated off eight beers or eight shots, no one has any business driving a car. A breathalizer does not discriminate between beer and liquor. Anyway, if Vote Noers were really concerned about excessive drinking they should actually support LBTD. With LBTD, a bartender then has control over the amount of liquor consumed and can cut an individual off anytime he/she feels it is neces­ sary. Without LBTD we have the popular practice of brown bagging your own liquor, in which the bartender reserves no right to cut anyone off from his/her beverage. In fact, many consider it a good idea to finish off the fifth or whatever they bring into an establishment, because if they leave with a broken liquor seal they are then subject to tickets, fines or even arrests. This example is to plainly illustrate how LBTD can be about control. And finally, if more bars come into the area, good for ASU students and their social lives. You rarely hear any complaints about Chapel Hill's Franklin Street. Boone functions off two primary variables - the students and the tourists. If we both want mixed drinks let us have one. It is not that big of a deal. Things will not change that much. I can promise you people will not flock from all over just to drink a screwdriver in Boone. And LBTD will not turn Boone into some smog capital of North Carolina as one Vote No person so scientifi­ cally suggested in a letter, 'We need to preserve our "natural" Boone', Jan. 19. This is no Los Angeles, pal. Have liquor and control it. Please Vote Yes Jan. 26. Jason Morton Box 07702 Women bear burden of proof for military service To the Editor: This letter is in response to Brian Winkler's column, "U.S. Military will "protect" the weak," Nov. 17,1 served for 10 years plus four years in the U.S. Army Special Forces, and six years in various infantry units in the Marine Corps. I served on land, ships, and in 17 foreign countries. I jumped out of airplanes, helicopters, trucks and trains. I have been shot at, gassed, walked through mine fields and had grenades thrown in my direction. I want Winkler and everyone who reads this to realize that a military commander's responsibility in combat is to accomplish the mission and care for the lives of the Ameri­ cans that are in his command. His ideas of equal opportunity must end at the line that diminishes the combat readiness and survivability of his unit. Any sailor, soldier, airman or marine that hurts morale, esprit de corps or the cohesiveness of a military unit must not be in that unit. What matters is that all men and women in a unit can contribute without jeopardizing that readiness or capability. I honestly think that all Americans should serve their country at some time, in some capacity. I can also say that there are some heterosexual men in military units that cannot perform their duties. But with the mission in mind, and the life or death situations that are routinely a part of the military experience, any change in the makeup of the military MUST be justified by an improvement in its fighting capacity and surviving capability. Walking into Iraq, I had on my back the following items: One explosive charge _ 181bs, one rifle — 7 lbs, two anti-bunker rockets — 28 lbs, one anti-tank rocket — 14 lbs, one pistol — 3 lbs, three mortar rounds — 10 lbs, rifle ammunition — 12 lbs, pistol ammunition — 3 lbs, water (four quarts), — 8 lbs, and clothing, sleeping bag, pack, com­ pass, map, etc. — 42 lbs. The total equaled about 155 lbs. I carried this weight for about 18 miles over hills and through water. It is more than I carried into Panama, but less than I have carried at other times. In addition to the physical exertion and stress, I was personally responsible for 12 lives. I left two of them to work at a supply point because they were not mentally or physically capable of completing the mission. The job of peacetime military is to be strong enough to deter war, ready to fight war and capable of winning war. The best way to be prepared is to simulate war. This means physical and mental stress in large quantities. I have seen more soldiers, sailors and marines die in military training than in war. Parachute, live fire, ranger, jungle, mountain, desert, cold weather, hand-to-hand, bayonet and other kinds of training I could list comprise the activities of peacetime service. If I had 12 marines, I would not want to consider the consequences of leaving two behind and face a peacetime charge of discrimination later. It is hard enough to care for the mission and those working under you without having to worry about whether female soldiers or marines would crack under pressure or distract other service members. There are also staggering supply and logistical problems with a female/ male integrated combat unit. It may seem trivial, but a man can whip it out and urinate or dig a hole and squat, and the presence of other men doesn't matter. Separate bathrooms sleeping, changing and living areas would be the least of the worries and considerations for the commander of such a unit. Keeping women out of combat is not a gender issue. It is an issue of whether having women in certain parts of the military will enhance the capability of it or jeopardize it Discrimination is not a word that belongs in the argument. The only determining factor should be the question of improvement of the capacities and capabilities of the military. Integrating a combat unit for integration's sake is wrong and will ultimately increase the casualty count. I do not wish to suggest that I am blind, or that I live on an island. I can feel that winds of change. I only say that we should be prepared. Any other superpower or two-bit country will not hesitate to make a 100 percent effort in a war against us. We will lose precious lives, both male and female, when we implement a "sex doesn't matter" policy within the military and fight by our rules against the military of a country that doesn't abide by any. John H. Akerson Box 18504 Chase's stealth tactics appropriate for CIA To the Editor: Saul Chase's political gamesman­ ship reminds me of the CIA motto: "Admit nothing. Deny everything. Make counter-accusations." Mr. Chase won't admit that liquor-by-thedrink guarantees trashy nightclubs and lounges. Boone boasts the same number of restaurants as Hickory — 40. Hickory has 19 trashy clubs. Do you want 19 similar trashy clubs in Boone? Under our present program, Boone is totally free of these toxic waste dumps. Mr. Chase's self-conducted survey of North Carolina town managers continued his denial campaign. He dismissed photocopies of actual small-town newspaper accounts: shootings, stabbings, murders and even a riot in Chapel Hill. All of the above occurred at the trashy clubs which he would bring to Boone. And yet he flippantly quoted; "No problems." Mr. Chase would not admit that topless bars are a possibility in Boone. He said that only military bases and large metropolitan areas have topless bars. Not true! Southern Pines, an up-scale golf resort town with 10,000 residents — 45 minutes from Fort Bragg — has a topless bar. Monroe and Hickory also have topless bars on the outskirts of town. Make no mistake, these places can (will?) come to Boone with a yes vote for liquor-by-the-drink. Mr. Chase wouldn't admit that Boone is a throughfare for 1.5 million free-spending visitors a year. Boone's true numbers can support corporate chains. These chains kill unique local restaurants. Do you want to under­ mine your neighbor's businesses which have contributed so signifi­ cantly to Boone's ambience? Mr. Chase denied the hard facts from the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles; Drunk driving arrests, accidents, and deaths rise dramatically after passage of LBTD.

High S f ACCURACY AND PUBLIC SERVICE SINCE 1934 fx-:':1:1:1:1: . • APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, Boone, NC 28608 oone citizens vote on Liquor By the Drink Tuesday ues of economy and possible town changes are at the heart of the liquor by the drink referendum LLEEN ALD RIDGE friter 26, 1993, Watauga County will have the opportunity to ballots either for or against , TheDrink (LBTD). If passed, adum would allow hotels,resjrivate clubs, community theconvention centers to sell nks. 5 who registered to vote in County by Dec. 28,1992 are »vote in the referendum. Polls will be open from6:30 a.m. to7:30p.m. next Tuesday. Since the Boone Town Council voted to offer the issue to the community in the form of a referendum, citizens have organized various groups to persuade others to vote for or against liquor by the drink. The major issues involve the possibilities of change LBTD will have on Boone. Advocates of the referendum feel legalizing liquor by the drink will en­ hance Boone's economy, while oppo­ nents of LBTD say it will cost Boone more to allow mixed drinks. A Con­ gressional Study by the National Insti­ tute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism says communities can expect to spend $4.41 for every dollar earned by liquor by the drink. However, Mayor Don Michalove of Hendersonville says, "Economically liquor by the drink has had a good effect. It hasn't caused any real problems." "I believe that Watuaga County resi­ dents would benefit greatly from the money brought into Boone by passing Liquor-By-The-Drink," said Boone Town Council member Saul Chase. "That extra revenue would help with the repairs and development of side­ walks and bike trails,as wellas propertly maintain and those already used." Another question posed is whether Boone's small-town atmosphere will be harmed. Those against liqour-bythe-drink argue that the atmosphere and natural beauty of Boone would be destroyed by passing the referendum. An organization called "Friends of Boone" believes legalizing liqour-bythe-drink would cause a great deal of growth. In turn, locally owned busi­ nesses would be forced out of operation and theeasy-going, community lifestyle in Boone would be upset, says the group. Some citizens fear liquor by thedrink will attract chain restaurants and top­ less bars. Boone Taxpayers for Re­ sponsible Control says Boone's popu­ lation is too small for most corporate restaurants. Most chain restaurants re­ quire a population of50,000 to 100,000 in a five-mile radius. Examples of topless bars that came to LBTD towns used by opponents cite bars in thecounty, not necessarily in the town or city. In one case, the topless bar used as an example was in the county rather than the town and did not serve alcohol. Chase feels that legalizing liquor will give more control to restaurants than to the brown-bagging laws now in effect. "Liquor-by-the-drink would, in most cases, give the restaurants the power to limit or even cut off someone drinking in excess," said Chase. Both sides of LBTD back up their arguments withstatistics. The challenge for voters will be weeding through the statistics and voting on Jan. 26,1993. If the referendum does not pass Tuesday, the LBTD issue will have to wait at least three years before re-surfacing. dams, Gurley will run for SGA president WNMCGUIRE nt News Editor ait Government President Dan announced he would run for on and J.D.

Advocates and opponents of the referendum differ in their views on the effects of legalizing mixed drinks. Businesses voice their views on LBTD By KARLA SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer One of the issues addressed in the Liquor-By-The-Drink referendum is whether or not large restaurant chains would run small restaurants in the area out of business.

A lot of people are misquoting a lot of the facts. Liquorby-the-drink won't hurt me because I'm a theme restaurant and not a bar. It will change Boone and I'm not ready for the change. The town council isn't capable of planning for the growth it's going to generate." -Stephen Minton, owner Ptccadell Cafe "I'm for it. It is totally an issue of control.

McKinnon connected her personal experiences growing up in Greensboro in the midst of thecivil rights movement with King's dream of peace. McKinnon told the audience of her family's struggle to support King while keeping the family together. Since bothof her parents were teachers, one parent would march in support of the movement whilethe other parent had to continue to work. The family could not risk both parentsbeing in jail because of marching. With the need for financial assis­ tance increasing, Appalachian State University has purchased a scholarship database to help students find financial aid and to attract more students to the university. Student Aid Research Through Technology (START) began assisting students with scholarship in­ formation last semester. The $2000 a year program provides a list of local, state and national scholar­ ships available to students free of charge. To use the database, students fill out questionnaires obtained in the admis­ sions and/or financial aid offices. The Office of Student Development enters the information into the computer and matches students with possible schol­ arships. Student Development sends students a packet with a personalized letter, the search results listing, and suggestions for applying for scholar­ ships. Students who wish to take advantage of the scholarship search should be aware of the services time table. Mark Williams, Coordinator of Student Life Research, pointed out that most of the scholarships for the 1993-94 academic year had a Jan. 15 deadline. Students should be considering searches for scholarships for Fall 1994. START was purchased not only to help students find financial assistance and to attract potential students, but also to protect ASU students from fraudulent, private scholarship search companies. Williams suggested the search ser­ vice after reading of indictments of private search services."Many of these businesses have been investigated for misrepresentation and mail fraud and judgments have been awarded against some," stated Mark Williams in the Scholarship Search Service proposal. "In short, victims of these programs are getting "ripped-off." Unlike private search companies, ASU's service is free to students and the scholarship information is updated four times during the year. If any infor­ mation in the database is incorrect, the Sarasota company that owns START will offer scholarships to ASU. Williams pointed out that the university's database is not completely comprehensive. Community scholar­ ships such as church scholarships are not listed. �The Appalachian. Thursday January 21 190?

New financial aid laws explain By KRISTIN LACIANO Staff Writer The financial aid season has just be­ gun. A mandatory meeting of those who wish to apply for financial aid for '93-'94 academic year was held Tues­ day night. Financial aid officials dis­ cussed new laws that have changed the assistance program for the upcoming year. Patsy Braxton, director of finan­ cial aid, took time to discuss some of the recent changes with The Appala­ chian. Q: Approximately what percentage of Appalachian State students currently receive some sort of financial aid? A: Well, if you consider the grants, the scholarships, campus employment and student loans, then we feel we've got around 65-68 percent of our students involved in that process. Q: What form of financial aid do most of the students use? A: Our largestprogramrightnow, both in the number of students and dollars, would be the Federal Stafford Loan program. Q: Due to the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act (HEA), there is a new law requiring that the form used to apply for financial aid be free to stu­ dents. How does this work? A: We had previously been using the Financial Aid Form (FAF); it's the need analysis document that was provided by what's called a Multiple Data Entry Program. You could take that one docu­ ment andsubmit it and beeligible for all the programs available. The concept hasn't changed in relationship to filing one form and being eligible for all pro­ grams. But the new law requires that in order for a student to apply for federal dollars, they do not have to pay to have the form processed. The emphasis be­ hind moving toward the free form is that the law no longer will allow any agency to charge a student if they are seeking federal dollars. Q: Also, the definition of an indepen­ dent student has changed. The law now states that students who are under 24 and unmarried will no longer be con­ sidered independent except in special cases. Is this going to hurt a lot of students who are currently considered independent underthe old laws but don't meet the new standards? A: I think we will have a substantial number in that category. Graduate stu­ dents won't be affected because even if they're 21, they'll still be an indepen­ dent student. We had around 940 un­ dergraduate students [to apply as inde­ pendent] and that s a substantial num­ ber of aid applicants. I would say a substantial numba of them will not qualify under the new definition. That doesn't mean they won't be able to get funding, but it does mean that they will have to apply on the basis of their parent's information. Now that might mean that they are not eligible, but we've found a lot of cases where stu­ dents who try to be independent would actually be better off, and receive more dollars, were they considered depen­ dent on their parents. So being an inde­ pendent student does not automatically qualify you for more dollars. An independent student is put into a whole new formula and as a result they are expected to make certain contribution levels to their own living costs.

Hege comes to ASU from Ledford High School in Thomasville, NC. By PHIL McCARN ByPHILMcCARN Assistant Sports Editor A change in the starting line-up proved to be effective for the Appala­ chian State men's basketball team. The Mountaineers got back on track after an upset loss to VMI last Wednes­ day by claiming back-to-back Southern Conference wins over Furman and Davidson toFinish the week at 4-2 in the league. The loss to Virginia Military came last Wednesday, Jan. 13 when the Keydets improved to just 4-6 overall with a 93-86 victory over the Moun­ taineers in Varsity Gym. The Mountaineers, after leading throughout the entire first half, were outscored 21-10 in the final 7:59 of the period to trail 37-35 at intermission. "We did some great things in the first 10 to 12 minutes," said Mountaineer head coach Tom Apke. "They are an athletic team with physical people in­ side. They shot the ball exceptionally well from the outside." The Apps could not overcome the deficit in the second half,dropping to22 in the SC. The Mountaineers were paced by Billy Ross, who finished with 19points. Chad McClendon and Jeff Williams added 15 a piece for ASU while Brian Hege chipped in 14. Apke changed the starting line-up for Saturday's game against Furman, a move that seemed to be just what the Mountaineers needed as they defeated the Paladins 81-77 to improve to 3-2 in the SC. Brian Hege, a freshman guard from Winston-Salem, NC, played a huge role in his first career start at the colle­ giate level. Hege finished with21 points on seven of ten shooting from the field and nine of ten from the charity stripe. "I just wanted to comeout and play a solid game,"said Hege of his first start. "I wasn't neccessarily worried about scoring a lot of points." The Mountaineers overcame an eightpoint deficit with 7:30 remaining in the contest, taking the lead on a Billy Ross jumper at the :28 mark. Hege then came up with the big play, drawing a charge on Furman's Brian Edwards, a call that could have gone the other way and given the Paladins a chance to win. "This was a big win for us," said Apke. "Jeff Williams pressure on their point guards enabled us to do some See APPS page 6 Appalachian photo by Paul Lampe WILLIAMS PLAYS A KEY ROLE: Junior Jeff Williams also moved into the Mountaineer lineup in the Furman game, replacing senior Joe Sabato.

Marshall's Lady Herd hands Lady Mountaineers first league loss fiy LYDIA CRAVER Sports Editor The Lady Mountaineers suffered their •nt Southern Conference loss this past Weekend, as they fell to theLady Thun­ dering Herd of Marshall in Huntington, WV,71-61. Appalachian State falls to 1-1 in the 'eague and 6-7 overall with the loss while Marshall improves to 2-1 in the SC and 9-5 overall. After trailing Marshall by only two at the half, the Lady Apps came out after, the break with somewhat of a mental lapse, according to ASU Head Coach Linda Robinson. Appalachian allowed Marshall to build a 16 point lead before beginning to cut the margin. Despite their efforts, ASU came up short, never coming within ten points of the Lady Herd for the remainder of the contest. "The opening of the second half re­ ally made the difference in the game," Robinson said. "Marshall came out really sharp and we could never catch up." In addition to opening the second period witha sluggish attitude, the Lady Mountaineers were plagued by turn­ overs. Appalachian committed 31 in the game which is "way to much if we want to win," according to Robinson. The Lady Apps were also somewhat shafted at the free throw line. While Marshall shot 32 free throws, Appala­ chian was only granted eight. "We felt like we really got banged around an awful lot," Robinson said. Angela Crosby led ASU in scoring with 19 points. Sheryl Lynch was the only other player for the Lady Mountaineers in double figures with 14. Appalachian State will play a pair of conference road games this weekend beginning with Georgia Southern's Lady Eagles on Saturday and ending with Tennessee-Chattanooga's Lady Mocs on Sunday. Tennessee-Chattanooga is currently first in the conference with a perfect 3- 0 record and 7-6 overall while Georgia Southern is 1-2 in the league and 8-5 overall. "This will be a huge weekend for us. Both Tennessee-Chattanooga and Geor­ gia Southern are playing well," Robinson said. The next home game for the Lady Mountaineers will be when ASU hosts Furman's Lady Paladins on Jan. 30 in a 2 p.m. contest in Varsity Gym.

Then, all (Bedard) had to do was just hang on to the lead. He stayed away from us and wouldn't let Donnell get in close enough to get a shot off." Bedard's win over Rawls inspired the Carson-Newman squad. "It gave them a good charge, but the kids came back and wrestled well when we needed to," Mance said. The Mountaineers were paced by senior heavyweight Melvin Crosby and junior 190-pound John Reynolds who both secured wins by pinning. Crosby took down Malt Galosi while Reynolds pinned Robert Tucker. Other winners for Appalachian State included sophomore Mike Orris who defeated Doug Badia, 9-6 in the 118pound class and senior Victor Balmeceda who took down Tim Pittman, 7-2, in the 142-pound class. Senior Corey Creech and junior Shomari Rozier also secured wins for the Apps. Creech won the 167-pound class by a technical foul as he recorded 19 points to Brian Nunley's three.

Next up was the Davidson Wildcats on Sunday, Jan. 17 in the Apps third game in five days. The Mountaineers responded with a 78-69 victory behind 26 points from Ross, including 23 in the second half, and a tremendous effort from Will­ iams. "Jeff is really effective on the inside with his athletic ability," said Apke. Williams finished with 14 points, things defensively that we don't nor­ mally do." Williams, who also started for the first time, collected four steals in the contest to frustrate the Paladin ballhandlers. McClendon led all scorers with 23 points while suffering from a sore ankle. "Chad (McClendon) played a great game," said Hege, "and that was a key four steals and five assists including four points during an 8-0 Mountaineer run that tied the game at the end of the first half. "It was what we did on the defensive end that made all the difference in the world," said Apke. Ricky Nedd finished with 12 points, five blocked shots, and three assists. The Mountaineers now stand 7-5 overall and, more importantly, 4-2 in the Southern Conference.

C. o. FOR AGAINST Questions and Answers (About Liquor-By-The-Drink) f%n If we decide we don't like Liquor-by-the-Drink can't we vote it out in 3 years? I've heard about topless • bars coming to Boone. Can this really be true? A: Don't be deceived. This almost never happens because once Maybe. Hickory, Asheville, • and Tryon already have them. REGARDLESS of whether they come, we know there will be a large influx of PRIVATE CLUBS (nightclubs and lounges). They will have no food sales required (not even a bag of chips). They can be unsightly and create areas for crime and violence. businesses become established a Town Council is unlikely to sponsor a vote that might put even private clubs out of business. IT'S A ONE TIME DECISION. ANGEm /V ^1 I've heard police enforcement costs would increase due to liquor-by-the-drink. Did this happen with beer & wine? Yes. The Boone P.D. has added eight officers since the 1986 vote for beer and wine and annexation. This cost taxpayers a total of $320,000 annually. (1991 revenue for beer and wine approximately $250,000.) At least three new officers will be needed if LBD passes ($120,000 annual cost). Since revenue from LBD will only be $100,000 it makes common sense to VOTE NO. PRIVATE GLUBS /U. PRIVATE CLUBS AND TOPLESS BARS ARE CONTROLLED BY THE N.C. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE COMMISSION. The Boone Town Council will have no say over what establishments a r e licensed and opened. "In a fairly recent period of time, we have had one person shot, one with his throat slit, and one with his nose and cheek bone broken. The negative effects of Liquor-By-The-Drink on the town of Tryon have far outweighed the benefits, and if I had it to do over again I would definitely vote no." BobNeely, Mayor of Tryon, NC (population 2500) PRIVATE CLUBS (NIGHTCLUBS, LOUNGES) ARE COMING TO BOONE, THE QUESTION IS HOW MANY. These establishments are often unsightly, promote the degradation of women, and are usually the scene of a communities most violent crimes. "This is my biggest concern" - Councilman Saul Chase, introducer of the Liquor-By-The-Drink Referendum. DON'T BE NAIVE! These establishments do not have to meet any required food sales. Their motives a r e solely to sell liquor and make a profit. Don't let the tragedies like we have seen and heard in other towns b e repeated in our community. THIS IS YOUR TOWN. TAKE PRIDE IN BOONE AND VOTE. $$$ ECONOMY $$$ ANGE BOONE WILL LOSE MONEY! Towns are spending up to $16.28 (police services, highway safety, criminal justice process, etc.) for every $1.00 earned from Liquor-By-The-Drink sales.

Many supporters believe Boone will only change for the better Ih the convenienceof liquor by the drink and the increase of Boone's income m liquor sales. By BRIAN WINKLER Assistant Commentary Editor At noon yesterday, the highest governing office in these United States changed hands. No longer when we say "Mr. President" will we mean George Bush. Now that distinction belongs to a younger, more moderate man by the name of Bill Clinton. Last year during the campaign season we were told that a vote for Clinton was a vote for change, while a vote for Bush was a vote for "four more years" of no change. Not being able to tolerate the erosion of individual liberties that took place during the Reagan-Bivsh years in the name of the almighty "War on Drugs", and not being able to stand the head-tuming that went on while businesses both big and small were not compelled to take the initiative to stop poisoning the environment that must sustain us all, I eagerly cast my vote for change. Now that 3UISNESS Clinton is our new leader, what kind of change can we expect? We can probably expect not much. Already Clinton seems to have reneged on at least one of his campaign promises. While courting the homo­ sexual vote, he promised that gays would be allowed into the military. Now that he has the post of commander-in-chief of the armed forces, he could see to it that gay men and women were admitted into military service by simply issuing an executive order from his presidential desk in the Oval Office. Suddenly, though, Clinton has become a real politician. He has turned to the usual Washington analysts and political foundations and all of the other lobbying groups for so-called "expert" advice. What do the experts say? Basically, that military people are not of the intellectual capacity to exhibit tolerance of admitted homosexuals. Are we supposed to believe that this thought never occurred to him while he was busy making promises? I don't believe that he didn't smoke pot, and I don't believe he didn't think of this stereo­ typical view of military enlisters when he made his promises. Why can't politicians simply live up to their promises? Maybe not filling campaign promises is how people get to be politicians. I remember way back when I was a young whippersnapper in high school, I was running for the position of Secretary of my class in our student government. I was uncon­ tested, so I knew I would be elected, but I was expected to give a speech before the elections anyway. During my speech, I told everyone how I would work to insure that we would have lots of school dances and free pizza during school events. I knew I could never get these things done, but I liked making up the promises anyway. After my speech, an assistant principal came up to me and told me that I would make a great politician some day. "Promising things you can't do," he explained. "That's the way real politicians do it." At the time, I thought he had given me a compliment. Since then, I have gotten older and wiser. Our new leader has a monumental task in front of him. Following 12 years of Republican presidency, Clinton's job will be to re-orient social programs and business policies in order to balance the scales that weigh real working-class people against big businesses. Although it sounds contradictory, there are ways to do both at the same time, and that is the ideal path Clinton should strive to find. Clinton will have to be very cautious during his reign. A Democrat-controlled partisan Congress sending bills to a president who is also a Democrat can easily turn into too much of a good thing. Congress, in concert with our new president, must strive to maintain control over their new coopera­ tive power. During campaign season, Clinton was portrayed as a liberal for liberals, a moderate for moderates, and a conservative for conservatives. Only time will tell what his final label will be. If Congress and Mr. President are not careful, however, it may just simply be "Bad President." Thoughts on Liquor By The Drink issue Topless bars: The Big Lie Since both sides spout such conflicting "facts," it is difficult to sort through e information to find some resemblance of the real truth.

In all six cities the topless bars preceded LBTD. There are NO medium-sized or small towns with LBTD that have a topless bar. The one you've heard about in Tryon was only open for about a year and is closed now. I don't know where all the topless bars are in North Carolina. That's because there seem to be so many that are not in places with LBTD. I've heard of some located OUTSIDE Jacksonville, High Point and Fayetteville, Elizabeth City and Hickory. Of course, these places aren't serving mixed beverages. They can't. The Big Lie adds that while topless bars may not come soon, they're bound to come. Chapel Hill, Wilmington, Hendersonville, Conover, Hickory, Greenville and many other towns have had LBTD for over ten years now without topless bars. If you end up voting against liquor by the drink out of fear for something that happened in ONE little town that borders South Carolina instead of considering what has happened everywhere else, then The Big Lie has worked. Topless bars are the "Willie Horton" issue of this election. I have spoken with or written to -THAT ok Appalachian Cartoon by Steven D. Mackay mayors and town managers from 20 small and medium-sized towns in North Carolina that have LBTD. Every one of them spoke favorably about LBTD. If you find that hard to believe, it's because the Big Lie has worked so well. Don't let the politics of fear win another election. Vote "Yes" for LBTD. Saul Chase Boone Town Councilmember Lighten up, Boone, Listen to reason To the Editor: I am a native of Boone, as well as a student at ASU, and I am tired of the half-truths and false assumptions that are being forced upon the less informed voters. People campaigning against the Liquor-By-TheDrink(LBTD) referendum have stooped to using enviromental and moral scare tactics to ensure success for their personal beliefs. For 23 years I have gazed lovingly at the mountains. For 13 years, I have lived in and loved Boone. Boone is not a pretty city. Route 105, with its brand new Winn Dixie and stripped corner at the bypass, is an ugly road. Where are the beautiful spots you mourn? The highway sides are already stripped, and where it is not stripped the beautiful Route 105 fourlane will soon bulldoze through. This is not a viable excuse for opposing LBTD. Route105 is being developed under your noses. Liquor in Boone will have no effect. Secondly, the tourist trade. Don't worry. An increase in tourism will happen regardless of whether LBTD passes. I doubt that tourists are waiting, with bated breath, at the bottom of the mountain. People will not travel to a town with night life as dead as Boone's just to drink pina coladas. The increased tourism argument is weak, illogical and based on assumption, not fact. This brings me to the next assump­ tion, topless bars. I doubt that a heathen place of immorality would stand a chance at profit gain in Boone. With the 51-49% food to Alcohol sales law, no one with any business sense would even attempt to plan such an endeavor. Posh dinner in a strip joint? How are they going to make their food sales quota? Now, for the traffic increase. Students, who add an estimated 9,000 plus cars to our town, should speak carefully! As I remarked before, LBTD is not going to invite an incredible swell in tourism. There are no smoking Fords, full of tourists who are hungry for Jan. 26 outcome, lurking below the mountain. In fact, liquor in Boone would decrease the traffic cm the Boone-Blowing Rock • section of U.S. Highway 321. As a waitress in an all night diner in Boone, I was astounded and fright­ ened by the number of drunk Boone residents and ASU students that had driven from Blowing Rock liquor bars. Crime increase: Any person with common sense knows that if more people are put into an area, the likelihood of bad apples in the lot increases. Boone's crime has increased with its size. Also, it costs approximately $45 in a bar to purchase the same amount of alcohol that $8 or $10 will buy at the liquor store. No one in this town can really afford to be naughty in a bar. What started as an age old issue of 'to drink or not to drink' has been turned into a moral issue hidden by enviromental and societal jargon. People who have not lived here for at least 5 years really cannot comment correctly on the enviromental and business directions of this town. Who remembers the beautiful green fields that once lay where New Market center now bustles? That was all in the name of big business, which opposers to LBTD so ardently reject How many of you do-gooders opposed the destruction of that pretty field? Give me a break. I do not like watching a decision on whether someone has the right to drink a Bloody Mary turn into a crusade-for-the-day affair. Frankly, I do not care whether LBTD passes or not. I cannot afford mixed drinks at $3 a pop. Boone, however, is my home. I will never be tolerant of those who argue for causes with their heads between their knees, desiring fame for causefighting with statistics and assumptions rather than facts and logic. Jamie Goodman Box 9578 Boone has liquor Why not LBTD? To the Editor: On Jan. 26, the citizens of Boone will go to the polls to vote on the sale of mixed beverages (Liquor-By-TheDrink) in the town of Boone. We shall decide whether "to permit the sale of mixed beverages in hotels, restaurants, private clubs, community theatres and convention centers."

They dropped the clause after complaints that it alloWfed too many dependent students to qualify as independent. Under the more restric­ tive laws of "independent," unmarried students younger then 24 could qualify for financial aid only in special cases.

Ward Zimmerman, vice chancellor of Business Affairs, said that the re­ quest and proposals were taken before the administrativecabinet who decided that ASU Police should not take on the responsibility. The cabinet also said that ASU Police did not have adequate staff for the service. "The state typically does not fund security operations to run escort ser­ vices," said Zimmerman. Zimmerman added that he thought the service was a good program and that the cabinet wholeheartedly supported the service. SGA suggested the move See ESCORT page 2 By SUZILANDIS News Editor Phase I construction of Plemmons Student Union is one inspection away from being officially completed. The Student Government Association, The Appalachian, the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership, the Black Student Association, Peer Career, Greek life and Outdoor Programs have moved into their new offices on the second floor of the student union. The Gold Room, bowling alley, and Alpine Lounge, formerly the Skylight Lounge also opened to students. David Robertson, director of the stu­ dent programs, said final inspection will be after minor change orders are finished. Pre-final inspection was con­ ducted New Year's Eve. "I think everyone was ambivalent, trying toget all of Workman inhere (the student union)," said Dino DiBemardi, director for the Center for Student In­ volvement and Leadership. "But I'm pleased with the transition." "I think the atmosphere in the new offices in the student union are more professional," said The Appalachian's Business Manager Lori Patterson. "However, I do miss the abundance of outside windows in Workman, which the new offices lack." Renovations for Phase I began with the pre-planning stages five years ago.

The proceeds from the Senior Gift will be used to buy books, periodicals and equipment for Belk Library. Each item will be identified as having been donated by the Class of 1993. The committee has developed a new way for seniors to pledge money for the fund. In years past, seniors were asked to donate a large amount which would be paid over the course of several years. This year, seniors will be asked to donate a set amount to be paid all at once. The Senior Committees have found it hard to collect pledges from gradu­ ates in the past.

The codes, regulations and laws were passed between the architectural drawings and the actual renovations. "Renovations are always tougher," said Robertson. "You never know what you will find." "Structurally, the building is good for 200 years," added Robertson. Phase I went $85,000 over the bid price. DiBemardi pointed out that the total renovation cost with the added $85,000 was under the original projec­ tion cost of approximately $900,000. "It's a student building so we want it to be functional and what the students want," said Robertson. "I think it's (new offices) great.

"The man, who is not an ASU student, entered the residence hall through a back window at Room G1D and removed a stereo system from theroom on Dec. 19,1992," said ASU Police Captain Larry Foster. The Winkler Residence Director ob­ served a white male carrying a stereo from the back of Winkler. The suspect ran as the RD approached him. The man ran into the woods toward the Chancellor's house when ASU Police arrived on the scene. Boone Police were then called to assist with the search. A Boone Police dog tracked the man to a Plymouth Trace apartment. The man was arrested for drug possession after Boone police observed marijuana and drug paraphanalia inside the apart­ ment. The man confessed to breaking and entering and larceny at Winkler after questioning by ASU police. The sus­ pect was held for a $26,000 bond. The man made his first appearance before the court yesterday on two counts of breaking and entering, one count of second degree buglarly, and one count of possession of burglary tools. The next court date is set for Jan. 26. A Taylorsville teenager was charged with possession of alcohol and posses­ sion with intent to sell/deliver a sched­ uled one drug by ASU police last Mon­ day. Police officers observed the sev­ enteen-year-old male carrying a bottle of alcohol in front of Wey Hall New Year's Eve. Officers took the suspect to be ques­ tioned and found a pill box containing some type of drugs on a square white sheet said Foster. The SBI lab in Asheville found that the substance was LSD. Foster obtained an arrest warrant and called the juvenile's mother in Taylorsville. The mother brought the suspect to Boone and turned him in to authorities. The court issued a $2,500 bond and released the suspect to the custody of his mother. On New Year's Day police investi­ gated a report that tools and equipment were piled behind the fence of New River Light and Power. "Two-thou See LARCENY page 2 �The Appalachian. Thursday.

Juniors and seniors can pick up applications in the Dean's Office, Reich College of Education, Room 222 Edwin Duncan Hall and must be submitted by March 15. Gurley said that although SG A feels the service is important and wants it to continue, ASU Police are better trained to run Mountaineer Escort "SGA doesnot have the proper train­ ing or resources to operate or staff the escort service. Security would know better what to look for in an applicant and how to screen applicants," Gurley said. Another concern is that currently.

"With a volunteer organization, you can only work with what you've got. Sometimes it's hard," said Gurley. SGA hoped that the ASU Police would be able to pay escorts and recep­ tionists, providing student jobs and bet­ ter qualified workers. Gurley said that SGA will maintain the service, but will continue to look for other ways of moving the service to a more appropriate jurisdiction. "People who use Mountaineer Es­ cort must understand that it is strictly volunteer and if there are no volunteers, it can't function," said Gurley. "If students want the service to not only continue, but to thrive, they will have to put out some effort."

Not only is it a new year, but it's a chance to see if you can get the classes you need to graduate and also a chance to see how fast you can escape the notorious Drop/Add line. This semester we will not witness the array of falling leaves, but we will find ourselves shedding wool socks and sweaters once the first warm breeze of spring embraces campus. Once again people will be­ come recognizable from afar as they take off hats and scarves and return to the Mecca of Sanford Mall with frisbee in hand. Spring is still a few months away and while the flowers continue their slumber before blos­ soming, spring semester is underway as classes begin. By now you should have a good idea of what your schedule should be for the rest of the school year, and while some may be struggling with the prospect of an eight o' clock, others rejoice that their earliest class isn't until noon. If you kept with the tradition and made reso­ lutions for the new year, you probably resolved tomake better grades this semester. While grades 1 «re nothing more than a numerical representa tion of how well you can cram, they are nonethe­ less what parents look at to see how well their money is being spent. Rather than saying "I'll do better," and then realizing in April that you have to make an "A" on the final to pass, why not try more realistic goal setting? Resolve instead to show up for class everyday, or do your homework every night. "Doing better" can't help but come from good study habits and discipline. Susan Golden has been reading a lot of children's books lately. Golden, children's li­ brarian specialist at Appalachian State University, is one of 15 people serving on the Newbery Award selection committee. The Newbery is awarded annually by the American Library Association's Association of Library Services to Children for the most distin­ guished book for children. Nominees must be written by an American author and published in 1992. Golden is the only representative from the southeast serving on this year's committee. It's the third time a professor from Appalachian has served on the awards committee. "I've read hundreds of books," Golden said. Her office in Belk Library holds five shelves of children's books. Two more boxes are at her home. The post office and UPS deliver boxes of books from publishers almost daily. While it's an interesting experience, Golden will be glad when the winner is named in Janu­ ary. "I can't wait to read an adult book and mysteries," she said. "It's (serving on the com­ mittee) very time consuming. I read all the time at home." Her family is quick to remind her of her Newbery assignment when she picks up a magazine or newspaper. While Golden is the only member of the selection committee from North Carolina, oth­ ers in the area are lending their eyes and input to Special to the Appalachian People materializing, dematerializing, disin­ tegrating, it's all part of the Andre Kole magical spectacular. Internationally acclaimed illusion­ ist Andre Kole will be in Boone on Wednesday, Jan. 20, at 7:30 p.m. at Farthing Auditorium. During this colorful full-stage production, Kole combines his performing skill with an extensive background as a psychic investigator and inventor of magical effects. Says Kole, "As an illusionist, I do not waste be announced in Jan. my time trying to accomplish that which is possible, but rather I concentrate on that which is 'impossible.' " As a usual feature of his show, Kole draws on his research as a psychic investigator to "bring out the truth behind communication with the dead, transcendental levitation and other psy­ chic phenomena, as well as the Bermuda Tri­ angle and psychic surgery." Several years ago while he was touring in the Philippines, Time Magazine asked him to inves­ tigate "psychic surgeons" there who claimed to perform miraculous operations without the use of any medical instruments or anesthetics. Subsequently, KoJe testified in court in the United States on behalf of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in the commission's efforts to halt the promotion of psychic healers in this country. In addition to holding the highest award from the Academy of Magical Arts in Hollywood, Kole is a creative consultant for David Copperfield and Doug Henning, probably the two best known magicians in the world today. A number of years ago Kole was challenged to investigate the miracles of Jesus from the view­ point of a professional illusionist. Sharing the discoveries he made during the investigation is also a part of this fast-paced production. Andre Kole is a specialist traveling representative of Campus Crusade for Christ International. This special appearance of Andre Kole is sponsored locally by Campus Crusade for Christ. Tickets are$5 for students and $7 for others and are available from Farthing Auditorium or by calling 262-4046. Because of anticipated re­ sponse, advanced ticket purchase is recom­ mended.

A group of par­ ents, teachers, librarians and others meet weekly to discuss the nominated books. An informal panel of children also voices likes and dislikes. A reader of children's books for 20 years, Golden has seen several changes in the genre. "When I first started reading children's litera­ ture there was a real breakthrough. People were writting about divorce and other unpleasant situations," she said. "It was a new age in frankness." No w the move is to multiculturalism. "Our multicultural society is more accurately reflected in children's books," she said. "There are still not enough minority writers, but there are more than there were." Books submitted for this year's Newbery included biographies about African-Americans and books about African-American and Viet­ namese children. While a shroud of secrecy envelops the selec­ tion process. Golden is permitted to talk about her favorites, which include "Missing May" by Appalachian writer Cynthia Rylant,"Sing tothe Sun," a collection of poetry by Ashley Bryan and "Somewhere in the Darkness" by Walter Dean Meyers. In mid-January the committee will meet in Colorado to discuss the top nominees and vote on the winning book. "Every book being con­ sidered is literally laid on the table," Golden said. Although there is no last minute filibuster­ ing for favorites, committee members can make School of Law in 1978.

Dead Can Dance is the result with which many are already familiar. If you are among the number who have never sampled this group's unique sound tapestries, "A Passage In Time," the 1991 release on Beggars Banquet Music Ltd./Momentum Music Ltd. is a good place to start. "A Passage In Time" is a wonder­ ful compilation, plus two previously unreleased bonus tracks. The first song, "Saltarello," is an authentic sixteenth century Italian dance, and so is their song "Song of the Sybil." These songs are not geared for the strictly medieval jsunong us. The sound of Dead Can Dance is ethereal, mysterious and grand. Their integration of synthesized sounds from anitquity like lutes, dulcimers, harpsichords, and bells, with various types of drums and organic sounds is truly marvelous. The use of the human voice is also interesting. Many times Dead Can Dance uses the device of layered voices chanting subtley, with a primaryvoice to carry themelody in a manner that is quite effective in creating a powerful whole. Each song has a different flavor from the others. In "The Garden of the Zephirus" there are only flutes, tambourines, chimes, birds ahd water that evokes the feeling of a primeval forest. "Wilderness" is completely acapella, and "Bird" takes you to a deserted plain where women are chanting with all their heart. The lyrics give the songs a mystical, eerie touch, KALEIDt S T h u r s .

Vaughan, and his band Double Trouble, touched the lives of millions for well over twelve years. His tragic helicopter crash came as a ter­ rible blow to his fans, friends and fam­ ily all over the world. Stevie Ray Vaughan had played music all his life, all the way up to the night of his terrible death. Although he is gone, his music still lives on. There have already been several albums released since his death, and they are all superb examples of his exquisite craftsmenship on the guitar. Vaughan's latest posthumous release is called In the Beginning, and lives up to its name. It is a live recording of Vaughan and his band from Austin, Texas on April 1,1980. This show was what brought him into the spotlight. It comes before the release of his first album, before his brief stint with David Bowie and before he became a house­ hold name. In fact, it was before he was known with the Ray in his name. Al­ though it is early on in his career, it is still chock full of incredible guitar stylings from the master. Stevie Ray Vaughan took the simple twelve-bar blues progresssion, made famous by musicians such as Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, andexpanded on it unlike any other guitarist. His quick fingered licks and brilliant phrasing, that made him a legend in his own time, are all over this tape. Even if the song has no words, his '59 Sunburst Stratocaster cries out the blues with its own voice. As if his guitar playing was not enough, Vaughan has one of the most soulful voices. Emotion pours out of his music, abandoning the usual Top 40 garbage to play tunes that need no technological advancements to make it better. It is simply amazing that three guys could make such incredibly emotive music. The concert starts off jamming and does not stop until the final note is played, from the first note to the last, this tape is full of rockin', good time blues and jams. Vaughan wastes no time after his introduction and jumps right into a searing cover of Freddie King's "In the Open." This is a ripping instrumental that is no holds barred. He follows this up with a rare and priceless original entitled "Slide Thing." Vaughan rarely played slide guitar, and I can not understand why. He is an awesome slide player. Next, he goes into a killer version of "They Call Me Guitar Hurricane," which is the first track that he sings on. Stevie pours out his heart and soul through this song, becoming a "guitar hurricane" during the solo. He goes into yet another cover "All Your Love I Miss Loving," origi­ nally done by Otis Rush, and later re­ corded by Eric Clapton. This is one of my favorite tracks because: 1) my former band used to cover it; and 2) it totally rocksmy butt off. Side two opens with "Tin Pan Alley," which later ap­ peared on the 1984 album Couldn't Stand the Weather. This song is the blues. From his soulful vocals to his excellently executed licks to his incred­ ible solo, this song stands as one of the finest tunes Stevie Ray Vaughan has ever recorded. Even today, "Tin Pan Alley" is noted as just about any Vaughan fans favorite song. The next two sons, "Love Struck Baby" and 'Tell Me," are both featured on his 1983 debut album Texas Flood, and are seering blues rockers that became his classic anthem songs for live perfor­ mances. "Love Struck Baby" is a song that contains lyrics that are the antith­ esis of most blues tunes. Instead of telling about a lost love, he sings about someonehe is very much in love with. "Tell Me" is an awesome version of Howling Wolf's classic song, which Stevie acknowledges at the end of the tune. The last two songs on the tape leave the listener begging for more. "Shake For Me" is a boogie woogie, rockin' blues tune that the listener can not help but want to shake their booty to. The last song is a wonderful rare s track that any Vaughan collector would want to add to his/her collection. It is entitled "Live Another Day" and is the original version of the Sevie Ray Vaughan classic "Pride and Joy." In this version, it has a few lyrical discrep­ ancies and is missing the intro riff, but is still recognizably the timeless classic that the fans have come to know and love today. Backing Stevie Ray Vaughan in the show is Double Trouble. In this incar­ nation, Double Trouble features Chris Layton on drums and Jackie Newhouse on bass, who was later replaced by former Johnny Winter bassist Tommy Shannon. Neither of the two are phe­ nomenal musicans,but hold a very tight rhythm section. Continued from page 3 McE lion to writing full time." What makes a good children's book?

One not need understand the words to com­ prehend the sentiment in the work of Dead Can Dance. It is easy to feel the passion of the music, and its gothic, wild, mournful or inspiring message. The heavenly essence of Dead Can Dance can easily become a favorite because itcan beenjoyed in a variety of ways: studying, eating or just sitting comfortably and meditating on what you hear. I would recommend "A Pas­ sage In Time" to anyone who is tired of the same old thing every time you lode at your CD rack. "A Passage In Time" is also a goodone to have if you already appreciate Dead Can Dance, as a sam­ pler of their work through the years.

"This was st time that they had Southern ence back-to-back home games trday and Sunday. The emotions teirfans, students and their playvery high." ty capitalized on that emotion and had several players that are not normally good outside shooters to hit some shots and they were able to get some easy dunks and lay-ups," added Apke. Ross had another big game in the loss with 27 points, while Nedd added 20 points and seven boards. Ross had the biggest game of his career with 41 points in the Mountaineer's 111-92 victory over Marshall to open the SC season on Jan. 6. He became the first Appalachian player to score 40 or more points in a single game since 1974 and is one of only four players in ASU history to reach the 40-point plateau. "Ross was a most important key (in the victory)," said Apke. "He was due to get on a role, we're just glad it has come at the start of the Southern Con­ ference schedule." The Thundering Herd is one of the top contenders to win the SC title with the most returnees than any other team in the league. The Mountaineers got off to a slow start, but held off Marshall by scoring the most points in an SC game in ASU history. " A key to the game was the first five minutes of the second half when we were up seven and pulled away after a Marshall timeout with 15 minutes to play," added Apke. Sophomore shooting guard William Cook scored 23 points for the Moun­ taineers. Chad McClendon added 13 points and seven rebounds. The Mountaineers also went through a tough non-conference schedule over the holidays with games at nationally ranked Nebraska, in Charlotte against Clemson and UNC-Charlotte, and at home against East Carolina. "We tried to look at these games as a learning experience," said Apke. "This was our first real road trip of the year, and the first road trip ever for most of our players." On Dec. 19, the Mountaineers trav­ eled to Nebraska to take on the nation's number seventeen ranked team and nearly cameup with the upset in front of 13,641 fans. The Mountaineers trailed by only one point with three minutes remaining in the contest, before Nebraska pulled away to an 93-83 win. "We didn't play great," said Apke. "We learned a lot and this game was definitely a confidence builder for our team." Cook led the way for ASU with 21 points, while McClendon scored a ca­ reer high 20 points and pulled down a career high 17 rebounds against the Thundering Herd. McClendon's re­ bounding performance is good for ninth best on the Appalachian all-time list. The Mountaineers traveled to Char­ lotte on Dec. 28 to participate in the first-annual Coca-Cola Classic at the Charlotte Coliseum. The event, which some called the ACC-Southem Confer­ ence Challenge, featured Davidson against Wake Forest and the Mountain­ eers against the Clemson Tigers. Despite leading by as many as six points in the first half and taking a onepoint advantage to the lockerroom at halftime, the Mountaineers dropped the contest 91-73. "Appalachian shot threes very well in the first half," said Clemson Head Coach Cliff Ellis. "Our defense in the second half shut down their three-point shot." Sharone Wright scored 16 of his 25 points in the second half and proved to be the difference for the Tigers inside. "We outplayed Clemson in the first half," said Apke."

Donnell Rawlsfinished second over­ all individuallyin the126 pound weight class by posting a 5-1 record in the tournament. The loss was the only regular season defeat ever suffered by Rawls since coming to Appalachian. Victor Balmaceda also faired well in the tournament by posting a 5-2 record at the 142 pound division and Corey Creech, at 158, went 5-1. The loss for Creech came in overtime in the finals of his weight class. The tournament was the first action that ASU had seen since the Rochester Tech Invitational on Dec. 5, a layoff of 25 days that had a tremendouseffect on the performance of the team. "It is hard to keep going after a lay­ off like that," said Mance. "The kids can't practice against the caliber of wrestlers that we have in our room and it is very hard for them to stay in wres­ tling shape." The Mountaineers' next tournament was the Peach State Duals in Atlanta, Georgia, on Jam 2 where they managed a 3-2 record, winning their division. "We weren't real pleased with losing those two (matches)," said Mance. "We were still beat up after the Sunshine tournament." The ASU lossescame to Indiana Uni­ versity, 22-18, and Clarion 23-13. "Our toughest match of the year was against Clarion," said Mance. Appalachian defeated Simon Fraser, a team from Canada, 27-16, Douglas, another team from Canada, 33-10, and Slippery Rock, 34-9.

"We still hopeto put five or six of our wrestlers into the nationals," said Mance.

The ASU Police are tion. Providing a student escort service is important on a college I and should be part of the protection police provide. [past, the Student Government Association has sponsored andmanaged It escort service. Although the service has worked well so far, the SGA [nlly concerned that they are not capable of adequate training and jig of the escorts, and rightfully so.

SGA has admitted not adequately screen and train the escorts. In order for this service to fit to students, faculty and staff, only qualified people should be •ed as escorts. The ASU Police force is better capable of selecting escorts and then training those escorts. past few years, the number of people using the escort service has . Most likely this is because the students have no real assurance that itaineer Escorts are any safer than strangers they may meet on the What good is an escort service if people are afraid to use it? Only "ftW/ce can give a better guarantee that the escorts will be professional, members should be applauded for recognizing their inability to ue to run the escort service without further help. ASU Police and the rsity Administration should recognize this call for help and provide this teeded service. If the police would run the service, more people would d benefit from a campus escort service. i the growing recognition of crime on college campuses, the ASU Police ignore the need for an escort service. c Under normal circumstances I try to refrain from making good intcntioned promises to myself assoon as the new year begins. This year, however, I have been inspired to compose a resolution that will require sincere effort not only for 1993 but for the rest of my life. I hearby resolve to be responsible for myself, my life's direction, and my shortcomings as well as my successes. I sincerely believe that by upholding this pledge I will improve my personal state and, at the same time, the economic and social environment of the United States as a whole. You see, I, like Rush Limbaugh, am of the persua­ sion that "too many Americans now automatically think the government should help them when they have a problem." I also believe that too many people are allowed to take advantage of governmental aid pro­ grams designed for those citizens who really need assistance. I'm talking about health care, unemploy­ ment, research grants and education. I'm talking about any other outlet of federal funding that is being sucked dry by those who are capable of inventing a more creative solution to their dilemma than the almighty government buck, and yet they chose the "easy way out" of their circumstances. I know there are instances where people have used their creative abilities to cheat the government — unnecessarily. A cancer patient on Medicare support should be ashamed to use her assistance to pay for her daugter's expensive Norplant operation. A healthy, capable young man whopurposely attempts to get fired from his job so that he can draw unemployment is not exactly a productive model citizen. And furthermore, people who bum down and destroy their own neigh­ borhoods and expect the government to rebuild are asking too much! You might say that the above instances involve extenuating circumstances. You might even say that these are just a few isolated cases in which excuses for the subjects are justifiable. And after all, they are only hurting themselves. Idisagrec. There are just too many of these "isolated cases" and too many "extenuating circumstances" that add up to too much money in the wrong places. People who never pay back their student loans, people who constantly badger the gov­ ernment for grants then use the money carelessly, and anyone else who wastes the entitlements that Uncle Sam is all-too-ready to hand out make life harder for every responsible member of society. Someone has to pick up the tab, and sooner or later that someone is you and me. What people don't seem to realize is that while they accept the "goodwill" of the government they empower the government. Unnecessary dependency on federal and state funds constitutes the surrender of self-reliance. Gerald Ford recognized this truth during his speech at the 1992 Republican National Convention. He stated with conviction that "a federal government big enough to give you every­ thing you want is a federal government big enough to take away everything that you have." I agree. America was founded on principles of selfreliance. There is evidence throughout The Consti­ tution and documents like The Declaration of Independence that citizens of The United States are to be responsible for themselves. It is not the concern of our government to ensure the individual success of the people. Despite what a few Utopianminded folks might think, our country is not the land of pleasant ease and instant gratification; America is the land of opportunity. Thomas Jefferson made it clear that we are all entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and that our government must protect these rights. The difference, however, between the right to happiness and the opportunity to pursue happiness is responsibility. Unfortunately, too many Americans are presently depending on assistant programs, and not enough people are fending for themselves. Ralph Waldo Emerson expressed his belief in the importance of individual responsibility in an excellent piece entitled "Self-reliance." Even in the 1800's he recognized "that a greater self-reliance must work a revolution in all the offices and relations of men; in their religion; in their education; in their pursuits; their modes of living; their association; in their property; in their speculative views." I wonder what he would say in 1993. I know that there are people suffering from want in the U.S., and there are people who genuinely need assistance. But fairy tale solutions such as taking from the rich and giving to the poor aren't really sensible remedies. Taking money away from the self-reliant and giving to the government dependent is not equality or justice or whatever some chose to call that kind of nonsense. Taxing the rich and making them pay "their fair share" discourages their investments and does nothing for the motivation of the needy. These kinds of policies just empower the government and disable the people. It's about time our government concentrated less on punishing the successful and more on providing opportunities for the dependent to pursue selfreliance. A nation-wide effort to achieve responsi­ bility is needed to bring America the prosperity she is searching for. We must all exhaust our physical, intellectual and creative abilities to stop the epi­ demic of government dependency, for sooner or later those infected will effect everyone of us. And so, I have made a resolution to do my part — starting with myself. Students say 'No' to Liquor By The Drink Boone must balance growth and restraint To the Editor: On Jan. 26, a crucial referendum will determine whether liquor should or shouldn't be allowed to be served c ^ i in local restaurants. The result ofSSia - -Sean Martin vote will be a major determinant in Box 21357 the future of Boone. It is crucial for you to understand the dimensions of this issue and why it goes beyond mere convenience in obtaining a mixed drink. To the Editor: Boone is an integrated community The issue of LBTD is more than money of long-standing local residents, ASU students, vacationers and tourists. The integrity of this town as well as the qualities that attract people here are being threatened by impending growth. Are we willing to lose our identity as the "Boone Community" to the whims of outside businesses? If Liquor By The Drink (LBTD) is passed, the tight-knit, small tradi­ tional characteristics of Boone stand to be lost. First of all, LBTD is an incentive for many of the corporate chain restaurants to move into Boone. This will result in the removal of local Mom and Pop restaurants who invest in the community but would not have the money to compete. As corporate restaurants come in, our dollars will go out. Corporate restaurants do not re-invest their profits into the community, they send them back to their shareholders. Other problems likely to occur with a yes vote would be the intensity of-, drunkenness in town. With LBTD a local option, intoxicated individuals would be more apt to drive home after a few drinks than call a taxi. This would make driving more of a risk. Another oroblem is that anv I want to ask you how much you really know about this Liquor By The Drink (LBTD) proposal? I am new to the Boone area and when I first heard there was even a question about whether or not bars and restaurants should be allowed to serve liquor, my first opinion was why is this even a question? It seems obvious to me that any bar or restaurant would want desperately the opportunity to serve mixed beverages, because in the service industry alcohol sales provide the greatest profit gain. Not only that, but what government agency does not shake with anticipation at the tax revenue that is available from liquor sales? The local restaurants, bars and economy would probably see a marginal increase in profits if the LBTD measure is passed. For as long as this LBTD idea has been debated, it has not been obvious what the potential development could have on the "ambiance" of Boone. I have a feeling that if this bill is passed, things are going to change in Boone. I want to scare you by asking you to imagine what Boone would be like as North Carolina's version of 1 did not come here for the singular purpose of being able to drink a martini with my hamburger at the local pub/restaurant. It's not like Boone is a teetotal ing kind of town. This is the first town I have ever been in where the local restaurants allow you to bring in your own liquor! If you ask me, I think that is a pretty nifty and economical idea. If you have ever run up a hefty bar tab at a restaurant you know what I mean, because you can spend $25-$30 on drinks that didn't even take half a big bottle of liquor to make! Enough of my opinion. What I really wanted to do is get you to use your noodle a bit and think about the effects your vote will have on the town of Boone and its permanent residents. Sometimes the things that go on are not just about money and your own personal satisfaction. They involve other people and things that are affected by your actions and decisions. Act responsibly and in a non-selfish way. Please. , Stefanie Barker Box 16219 We need to preserve our 'natural' Boone To the Editor: Mixed drink enthusiasts, please be educated. Boone is a place that �The Anpalachian. Thursda\ January 14 19Q? Letters Continued from page 7 The advent of mixed drink availability on the widest scale will no doubt bring forth new corporate restaurants and eventually commer­ cial businesses in general. These new businesses will require vast unvegitated land areas such as parking lots and access roads; in other words, relentless strip-develop­ ing, like U.S. Highway 321. What does all of this mean? Plenty! It means more traffic from an influx of tourists. More traffic means more incomplete combustion of fuels producing lethal carbon and nitrogen oxides for us and the wildlife to breathe. Strip developing will induce accelerated run-off of precipitation, flooding and polluting our streams. Most frightening of all is the possibility that these effects can culminate in what scientists call the urban heat-island effect. The more buildings that go up in a valley like Boone's, the more the air currents are obstructed and absorbed. Cars, parking lots, highways and buildings produce a concentration of heat and pollutants while cooler air from outlying areas forces it upward. Here it will stay, re-circulating within the valley, becoming more and more foul. The grim scenario is this: As you and your friends go hiking one warm summer day, and you finally reach the top of your climb; you'll look out over the town of Boone and discover that what was once a clear, lush, green valley, is now blanketed by an orange soupy haze. I ask myself and all of Boone, are mixed drinks really worth that? coamcLOtt OB BOOM 600 camps in the USA, Russia, and Europe need you this summer.

To the Editor: The issue ofliquor by the drink (LBTD) is back in Boone, and this time the students will decide the future. It seems easy enough. You want to be able to go to local restaurants in Boone and order a mixed drink, right? It would be convenient, and it would be a nice change for Boone ... or would it? Let's think about Boone. Not tomorrow, but 10 years down the road. What wouid happen to this quaint, mountainous town that so many of us have become attached to if something as simple as LBTD became legal. What about the intimacy of our university town, which is the reason so many of us chose Appalachian State in the first place. The locally-owned restaurants and stores, along with the town's strong cultural and historical ties make Boone a place we can all be proud of. Well, let's look at the issues and you can decide for yourself. Let's say that LBTD does get passed. Liquor is a big money maker, and combined with our tourism, it is a wonderful reason for corporate restaurants to come to Boone. Well, what could be wrong with that? First of all, the corporate chain restaurants can afford to lowed their prices and have a slow season, or two or three. They have the capacity to hold out for the growth of the town to catch up with them. But how about the locally-owned restaurants? How long can they last while the corporates take away their business? Can they afford to lower prices to compete with these new restaurants? No. More importantly, these corporate businesses will be profiting the shareholders outside the community, instead of putting the money back into our own families and commu­ nity, as do the locally-owned restaurants. With the continuous influx of corporations who can out-do the locals in advertising, promotion, and financial support, we will see the erosion will occur, by cutting into our hills and mountainsides (like U.S. Highway.-321). Boone's infrastruc­ ture: water treatment, landfill and roads, which are already overex­ tended, will by no means get better. Traffic will be even more outrageous than it is now, with 105/321/421 being a deadlock. We would have to widen our roads, cutting into more of our precious environment. And what also increases with growth? Crime, and lots of it. J Mountaineer v Escort is accepting volunteers for Spring of 1993. If you are interested, please see Eric Swortzel at 21A Workman Hall, or see an escort on duty. PLEASE, we need your help But what about Blowing Rock? They have LBTD and they are still small and quaint. They have not been taken over by the corporations. The biggest difference here is that Boone is a college town, aiW during the off tourists seasons, the town is still supported by the college. Blowing Rock, however, depends only on it's tourism, having approximately 1,200 residents, compared to Boone's 20,000+. There is no reason for corporate restaurants to go to Blowing Rock, there is nothing there to support them. So, all I'm asking is for everyone to educate yourself on the issues, and decide for yourself what is best. And don't forget to think about what is best for Boone.

Cottom wants to construct vOunit hotel and add cross-country-ski ils with snow making on the golf course, i expand the ski area itself. Keypersonnel frompreviousyears will ad the staff for this new year. Veteran iployees include Lyn Herrick as head the professional ski patrol, and David wers as ski school director.

"We've got a really strong group of »* agree will ople that have worked together for so ig it's a family," said general manager am Gidley. Cottom declined to discuss the details the purchase agreement with the previ­ ous owner, Jon Reynolds. "One offer was made and one offer was accepted," said Cottom. Hawksnest will continue packages that have made the resort popular among the area residents and tourists alike. Programs like "Nighthawk" will continue with state-of-the-art equip­ ment like snow-making machines and lifts. The construction of an "intermediate range goal" will help to change the per­ ception that Hawksnest is an advanced level slope. "The good news is that the equipment, the chairlifts and everything is in good shape. We've been working on it for the past three months, since early Septem­ ber." Last season was the best in three years for skiing in the high country because of fine snowmaking weather, with several consecutive weekends of cold weather and a snowy spring. Hawksnest firstopcncd in winter19661967. The resort was the area's third lodge along with Appalachian Ski Mountain and Hound Ears. The Hawksnest symbol will be re­ tained because "it is a very popular con­ cept."

The policy is designed to protect stu­ nts and faculty as they go to class, and eonto campus from their homes.The time classes were cancelled at ASU ts three years ago when temperatures =rvice. H>oc.l re 25 below and the wind chill factor as 60 below. The temperature, wind chill factor, and parking lot conditions are judged four senior staff members. The team adand - I iixjNn' t ol r»o state l'ccs a rcport to the chancellor who tounces a final decision, he four senior staff members are the chancellor for business affairs, the 'fciate vice chancellor for physical ^*hons, the director of public safety and the director of health services. Upon decision of the chancellor, the vice chancellor for academic affairs de­ cides if classes will be cancelled for half a day or a full day. He must make this decision by 7 a.m.The Appalachian News Bureau is notified and in turn notifies local radio stations and television outlets. Several areas of the university, such as the cafeteria, must run regardless of the conditions. In that case those employees that can make it into work should do so but others are welcome to stay home. Dr. Derrick of the infirmary has said the most important things to do arc to remember to cover up and be insulated. The first warning signs of frostbite and hypothermia are numbness and paleness. The most important thing to remember when it is too cold is to make frequent stops along your way to your destination, cover your head and remain insulated. The most common areas for frostbite are nose, fingers, carlobes and feet. Coffey Hall residents no longer have to worry about receiving shocks from their kitchen stoves. One day after the danger­ ous appliances were reported, the Physi­ cal Plant checked each kitchen in Coffey and fixed all of the defective stoves, ac­ cording to Stewart McLaughlin, the di­ rector of mechanical engineering of the physical plant. "It is my understanding they are all fixed," McLaughlin said. McLaughlin said the Physical Plant workers took voltage readings between zero and 60 volts. The problem, accord­ ing to McLaughlin, was due to improper installation of the stoves. "There was a grounding strip that ap­ parently was not installed as it should have been," said McLauglin. When the grounding strips were in­ stalled, the appliances gaveoff the proper reading of zero volts. McLaughlin said he had not heard of any other reports of appliances giving off shocks on campus. "It should be a one time deal," McLaughlin said. "It would be extraordi­ nary for it to happen anywhere else." ASU group provides help for the needy Soup kitchens and simple hospitality will help the homeless this holiday season Special to the Appalachian With the holiday season approaching, many cf us turn our thoughts to gathering with family and friends in a warm home with good food. Unfortunately, there arc people who do not have either of these. A group of Appalachian students. The Providers, have come together to try and solve some of the problems facing the homeless. The group of students includes mem­ bers of Appalachian Popular Program­ ming Society (A.P.P.S.), Black Student Association (BSA), Lambda Chi Alpha, and the Political Science Society. The Providers focus their attention of the Hospitality House, which is a non­ profit, private crisis intervention facility assisting adults and families in homeless situations. Since 1985, the Hospitality House has sheltered more than 2,000 adults in need of temporary housing. The facility pro­ vides a system of counseling reviews with each guest to determine specific needs and develop a plan of action to resolve that individual's. The house is also the community soup kitchen. Local sources prov ide 80 percent of the Hospitality House's financial support. The remaining twenty percent comes from federal and state FEMA and ESGP grants which come through an annual, formula grant application process. The Providers are working together with the Hospitality House tocollect food, clothing blankets and other items from area churches and local citizens. Contriubtions or donations should be sent to the Political Science Society, ASU Box 8981, Boone, N.C., 28607. Nonperishable items should be taken to the Hospitality House at 410 E.King Street or to the BSA office in Room 219 Workman Hall. For more information contact the Hospitality House at 264-1237.

Page 7 The Student Government Association, (SGA), passed three bills: a dead week resolution, a grade appeal policy and a sexual orientation bill during the senate's last two meetings. All three bills were presented by the Academic Affairs Com­ mittee. Sexual orientation The sexual orientation bill was passed at Tuesday's SGA meeting. The bill states that sexual orientation should be added to ASU's discrimination policy for University protection. "Currently, there have been no docu­ mented cases of sexual orientation dis­ crimination on this campus,"said senator David Cox, of Coffey, one of the present­ ers of the bill. "We think this is because there is no recourse for protecting any complaints," Cox added. Cox said that he believed the bill was a "logical progression" of the University's discrimination policy, which currently protects discrimination on the basis of race, religion, sex, national origin, color, age or disability. Off-campus senator Bjarne Berg ob­ jected to the bill stating that close contact with homosexuals might make some people uncomfortable. "A teacher is a role model and should be unifying students, not splitting them," Berg said. Keith Van Wagner, assistant chair of the rules committee, responded saying that all minorities should be protected and that civil rights was an issue "on which one has to be brave." There were no further objections and the bill passed 41-5 with seven absten­ tions. Grade appeal A policy designing a formal university grade appeal proce- appeal system. The bill passed 41 -2 with one abstention. Dead week The student senate also passed a dead week proposal at the Nov. 24 meeting, calling for an academic and social dead week prior to final exams. Under this bill instructors could not give exams, projects, or papers during the final week of classes unless it was the fi­ nal for the class. Also, no university sponsored clubs or « /\ teacher is CI role model , . ... ...

The bill sets up a committee in each college to hear complaints. The decision of the committee would be final and binding, which has caused resistance from some faculty. "The faculty who vote against this will be the ones the bill was designed to pro­ tect against," said Tom Beaman, chair of the academic affairs committee. Currently ASU has no formalized grade organizations could hold mandatory meetings and no uni- versity sponsored social activities, --Bjarne Berg such as movies or dances, could lake place. The bill was in­ troduced to allow students more time to prepare for exams, according to the academic affairs committee. It passed unanimously. In other senate business, senator Kara Morch of East, was appointed assistant rules committee chair. The appointment was made because Van Wagner, the as­ sistant chair will takeover as chairperson next semester when Meagan Jones, cur­ rent chairperson, takes a leaveof absence. o Compiled by SUZI LANDIS News Editor Appalachian police and the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) are still investigating the rape that allegedly occurred on campus Nov. 22. Police did consider a connection with the Boone incident and the Gastonian minister, Lippard, arrested on rape charges in that area. Captain Larry Foster of the ASU police said Lippard has almost been ruled out. Police are talking to people who fit the suspect's description and checking leads, said Foster. The case will be kept open until a suspect is arrested or the charges aredetermined unfounded, added Foster. A mountain bike estimated at S500 was stolen from the bike rack in front of Bowie residence hall Nov. 24. An­ other bicycle was taken from the Doughton bike rack Nov. 20. Both bikes were secured by U-locks. Two days before, ASU police charged a student with possession of stolen property when another student identified his stolen bike near the Col­ lege of Business. The student con­ fessed to stealing the bike, valued at S464, from an off-campus location. The student was referred to student court. Boone police were contacted because the theft occured off-campus. The student was charged with larceny by the Boone police. A swastika was spray-painted on a vehicle in the Horn in theWest parking lot Thanksgiving Day. The vandalism was similar to an incident at the Watauga High School. Boone police and ASU police are investigating the situation. A woman was issued a citation for sell ing perfume in Hoey residence hall. Police informed the woman of thecampus solicitation policy and told the woman she could be charged with tres­ passing if she continued to solicit on campus. A Cannon resident reported threat­ ening phone calls on her answering machine last Monday. Police are in­ vestigating the incident.

ASG passes student representation bill By DAWN MCGUIRE Assistant News Editor The Association of Student Govern­ ments (ASG) for the University of North Carolina system unanimously passed a bill presented by Appalachian State Uni­ versity, which calls for student represen­ tation on all faculty and administrative sM-ch committees. sWhe bill would effect all sixteen UNCsystem universities ifit is approved by the state Board of Governors. Currently, none of the universities have a policy requiring students to be placed on faculty and administrative search committees. The unanimous vote was a strong show of support," said J.D. Adams, ASU stu­ dent government association director of state affairs."Appalachian was the first to take a stand and it sets a good example." ASG also passed a similar bill regarding chancellor search committees. This bill calls for equal representation of students. The Board of Governors will have to approve this bill also. Student representatives discussed whether to support a black history requirement or multi-cultural history options. Adam said he would talk to SGA and take student surveys on the issue before supporting either pro­ posal. GET MONEY FROM YOUR UNCLE INSTEAi Your Uncle Sam.

THE APPALACHIAN THURSDAY, December 3, 1992 Walls is proud of Appalachian's program in psychology. "It's a diverse department," she said. We offer a sound curriculum for work in psychol­ ogy." She also commented that Appalachian has a very large program; there are many students striv­ ing for either a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Sciencedegree in psychology. A graduate program is also offered. This is Walls 16th year at Appalachian, and she has seen the program change considerably. "It has definitely become more academically challeng­ ing," she said. "It has also increased in majors." Appalachian's psychology department always has room for growth and improvement, and Walls would like to see the honors program flourish and more faculty and student interaction on projects. She also hopes that eventually professors will be able to teach special topics either annually or biannually on subjects that interest them. Walls graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill with a major in psychology. She has always been inter­ ested in the subject, and remembers an 8th grade class trip to a psychology clinic to explore jobs in that field. "From that lime on, I wanted to be a psychologist!" she said. In her spare time, Walls enjoysjiiking, dancing, listening to music and traveling. She spent a year in China and has been out west to study Native American culture.

Spike Lee's new film 'Malcolm X' raises eyebrows By STEVE MACKAY Appalachian Staff Writer Spike Lee, like Oliver Stone, loves to stir up trouble with his films. Last year, Stone grabbed the media by it's throat with his film "JFK". This year, it's Lee's "Malcolm X" that will be grabbing throats and not letting go. Ironically, "JFK" and "X" have both been on the covers of "Newsweek." - • i nam "Malcolm X" is a glorious, chilling, and long biocpic of the controversial Wack leader; from his childhood to his violent death. We see Malcolm metamorphose from a hustler, to a convict, to a scholar, to a preacher, to a father, husband, and finally to a leader. The film starts out with Malcolm Little as a crook without a care in the world. Sent to prison for robbery, a man named Baines (Albert Hall) converts him to Islam and teaches him about the injustices inflicted upon blacks by whites. Onceout of prison hededicates himself topreach­ ing and teaching the word of Allah. He stirs up trouble with the police, even though he never really docs anything wrong. Malcolm joins the Nation of Islam, only to break with its leader (A1 Freeman Jr.). He starts his own organization, the Black Nationalist Movement. At first he hates all whites, but eventually comes to realize that we must all work, together. DECEMBER Campus Paperback Bestsellers Malcolm's marriage to Betty Shabazz (Angela Basset), a fellow Muslim, is beautifully realized. We feel for both of them and their children, as they are terrorized by bigots, cops and members of the Nation of Islam. This leads to his assassination in 1965. Denzel Washington plays Malcolm with passion, grace and ease, he's like a coiled snake waiting to spring out and attack. Washington won an Oscar for his role in the excellent Civil War film "Glory". 1 strongly believe he will be standing, once more," at the famous accepting podium at next year's Oscars. Spike Lee, the director, had a lot of trouble making this film even before the cameras started to roll. The problems ranged from too little financial backing, people yelling at him over how to portray Malcolm, and who knows what else. Lee overcame those ob­ stacles with help from friends and prayers, and he delivered. During the course of the film we get to travel from Boston to Harlem and even to Mecca. The film runs three hours and twenty-one minutes, but you won't notice it and it's worth every second. Lee does take creative licens­ ing in the film, but no more than any other historical • * .mfrrir" Everyone, no matter what race, color, sex or age, can learn something from this film.

(Avon, $16 00) Sweeping history of Ihe European conquest of the dork continent from 1876 to 1912 bringing to life a remarkable tableau of explorers, politi­ cians, merchants, military men and heroes By STEVEN MACKAY Appalachian Staff Writer Once upon a time, a movie producer was in his office trying to think of anew idea for a blockbuster film. Suddenly it hit him. "One man has to fight a groupof bloodthirsty terrorists, all by himelf. Now, where should this take place? An office building? No. How about an airport or a school? Or maybe a battleship? AJih, the hell with it, the American people will never buy it!!" Well, as the old saying goes; that was then, this is now. We have seen this scenario many times, there have been high points ("Die Hard") and low points ("Toy Soldiers"). The newest entry, "Pas­ senger 57," falls somewhere in between. The only fresh element in this carbon copy flick is that our hero is black, an ideal long overdue from Hollywood. Wesley Snipes, who has proven him­ self quite well in comedy ("White Men Can't Jump") and drama ("New Jack City"), jumps into the action genre with ease. He clearly shows that he can play hardball with likes of Steven Segall and Bruce Willis. John Cutter (Snipes), an anti terrorist expert, just happens to beon an airplane destined for hijacking. Bruce Payne (cute name) plays the terrorist, who is notorious forsky-jackings. He has the usual mob of grueling, drooling thugs to help him out. In the beginning, the terrorists are mean sharp-shooters, but once Cutter makes his appearance they turn into blundering idiots. Payne, a prisoner, is being transported by the U.S. government. Why they would put an infa­ mous sky-jacker on an airplane full of civilians is beyond me. He takes the plane over and Cutter is there to save the day. The action starts in the plane, then somehow moves to a carnival-fairground, then ends back in the plane. The plot is really inept and predictable down to the last second. There are enough coincidences to make the Warren Commission jealous. Mostof the action scenes are well done, and the special effects are good. The main attraction is Snipes' energetic performance. If you really want to see a good film about disaster in the air go rent "Airplane!;" it makes a lot more sense. "Passenger 57" ("R": violence, profanity) rates ** (out of four). P.S. To the people who really love this stuff; "Die Hard 3" is coming out next year. I can't wait. �-The Appalachian Thursday Perrmhrr 1 jO07 Don't let the final exams get you stressed do our work. What's wrong with us? Why do we do this? What's the real rea­ son we came to college anyway? By CHET LONGLEY Appalachian Staff Writer Folks, I've been having a crisis lately. That's right, a perfectly sane human be­ ing who is satisfied with his life and whose worstproblem in the w orld usually is what to do instead of his school-work. 1 m restless. No matter how constantly enjoyable and satisfying my life could be, I never feel I have achieved much. Let's look at the details here. My friends, job and education are more than enough to keep me incredibly busy. The fact of the matter is, I think 1 have more homework than I can finish in two months to do this week alone, butl don't want to do it. I love my job, I get to hang out with the people I like best and get paid to create things, solve weird problems, teacher others what I know while learning myself (I'm a car­ penter for the scenic shop at the Depart­ ment of Theatre and Dance.).I don't have , the motivation to do anything. That does seem to be a bit on the weird side, huh? We are all here to make our selves better in some way, but we are completely reluctant, in fact, we hate to Do you sec the process? This happens every time I sit down to try and make sense of this feeling that occurs at the end of each semester. I feel trapped by educa­ tion. No way out. Everything is due to­ morrow. I m so behind, that there seems no human way possible to escape. (Insert primal scream here) I'M TIRED! Maybe I should go to bed. A good night s sleep would do me a lot of good — I said that last night to myself and I ended up lying in bed thinking about unneces­ sary things, irrelevant things. Well, as you can see, all of this undefinable stress had led to a very annoying result; unstop­ pable, pointless and annoying complaints. It will start off simply. Each person will take their turn at expressing themselves. We will all sympathize with each other and the room will fill with compassion for the fellow stressing student. Then a com­ mon thread will emerge, one person's thoughts transitions smoothly into another's — the conversation starts to build momentum. Ugliness prevails. The room goes weird with the release of pent up frustration.The subjects turn to friends not present, scapegoats for the pointed anger that accompanies the ex­ plosion of the accumulated negative emo­ tion of the past few weeks. Electricity sparks between people as the potential energy converts into the power of cruelty. You are responsible for the destruc­ tion, and the power that you have to hurt another has surfaced — and you like it. Tonight I decided to harness that power and write a column. To all those that have been sitting around using the power of complaint and gossip, realize its destruc­ tive potential and its power to hurt your­ self and those you love. Get your butts off the couch and shut up. I'm gonna go do some homework. N T 24 HOUR CRAM-A-THON Poromount Porks, formerly Kinn< Productions, :• LJJ:..

The loss came in front of nearly 4,000 shivering fans and marks the third con­ secutive loss for the Mountaineers in the opening round of the 1-AA playoffs. "We just started off in a hole and couldn't get out of it. We weren't real effective on either side. That was largely because of them, but part of it was that we seemed to have no emotion early on," ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore said. The Blue Raiders got on the board just 28 seconds into the game when Moun­ taineer quarterback D.J. Campbell threw an interception which was picked off by MTSU linebacker Jabbar Trouiman who returned the ball 12 yards to the ASU 15. Fullback Walt Crowder rushed straight up the middle on MTSU's first play from scrimmage to put the Blue Raiders up, 60. Garth Petrilli's kick was good for a 70 advantage. Two possessions later, the Blue Raid­ ers drove 64 yards as tailback Brigham Lyons scored on a 14-yard run to give MTSU a 14-0, lead, with 5:09 remaining in the opening period. Lyons, a true freshman who is listed third on MTSU's depth chart, led the team with 114 yards rushing as the Blue Raid­ ers outgained ASU 434-256 in total yard­ age. ASU punt returner Anthony Smith fumbled the ball at the Appalachian 24. Lyons struck again seven plays later, scor­ ing on a leap from the two-yard line to put MTSU up 21-0. MTSU advanced to a 28-0 lead with 6:03 remaining to play in the half after ASU punter Harold Alexander gave MTSU the ball at the Appalachian 44 on a 23-yard punt. Quarterback Kelly Holcomb hit flanker Cory Simpson with a 44-yard touchdown pass on the opening play. The Blue Raiders held ASU to just 45 yards in offense in the opening half to their 271. The Mountaineers managed to cross midfield just once in the half. Campbell completed only 1 of 11 passes for minus 4 yards. Appal achian scored itsonly touchdown in the third period as tailback Chip Hooks caught a 4-yard pass from Campbell with 4:35 left in the third quarter. JayMillson's kick was good to put ASU on the board, 28-7. Campbell went on to connect with Smith for a 46-yard gain to set up the Apps' only other points which came from a 27-yard field goal by Millson early into the final period toclose the gap to 28- 10. Crowder rushed for 32 yards with 10:28 remaining to play to wrap up the scoring and put MTSU at the final 35-10 margin.

Appalachian State capitalized on 16 UNC-A turnovers in the first half to build a53-27 advantage at the intermission. The Apps built their lead steadily with the outstanding play of an intense defense ami the sharpshooting of a powerful offense. The Mountaineers shot an incredible 55 percent from the floor in the first half, including 50 percent from three point land.

The common people cannot give and care much more than they already have By RUSSELL MEYER Appalachian Columnist Are you, the American common people, as angry as I am? No, I'm not talking about the poor. Most Americans do not consider themselves poor. Besides, wc have the richestpoor in the world. Nor am I talking about the rich. Most Americans may aspire to have a lot of money, but many of us will never see riches. I am referring to the middle class, the truly oppressed in this nation. I am sick of turning on the TV and hearing that everything is my fault. The AIDS crisis is my fault because I don'tcare enough. The plight of the homeless is my fault because I haven't given enough. The past oppression of people is my fault because of my ances­ tors, and world hunger is my fault because 1 live in a capitalist society. In this 500th anniversary year of Columbus, I am tired of hearing him get dumped on. Some places are even putting him on trial for mass murder. Frankly, I don't care if he gave a few Indians diseases against which they were not immune. We can't change that, we're here. How many out there packed their bags and moved back to Europe when they found out what a terrible man Columbus was? I didn't see massive boatloads of people heading east. I'm sick of turning on the TV and hearing how bad things are going to be this holiday season. The news media tells us that "The American public is watching their money this season." How many people do you know who walk into a store and say, "Well, I've got plenty of money this year, so I guess I'll just spend it all foolishly." I don't know any. We hear from Congress that we expect too much from them. Truthfully, I wishCongress would leave me alone.

Like Rush, Lorrie is almost always right. Almost. In reading her column, "All in favor of pure democracy, think again," Nov. 12, I could not help but notice that Lorrie contradicts herself. She first expresses concern at the recent challenges to the First and Second Amendments, then goes on to sound the alarm on special interest groups. The irony of this is colossal, since one of the most prominent and powerful defenders of Purity is something that Appalachian has always taken seriously. How- the Second Amendment is the Nation Rifle Association, which epitomizes the 't is time to evaluate the advantages of foot patrol over vehicular patrol. public view of a special interest group. lmPus that is only half patrolled is not a safe campus. Special interest groups are beneficial rather than harmful to our democratic process. They provide the citizenry with a voice in government between the elections, rather than leaving the job of government entirely to the professional Noted and Quoted THE FAR SIDE politicians. Special interest groups represent those concerned citizens who are willing to research issues that they consider neglected by government agencies. Special interest groups also educate the general public, most of whom cannot take the time from their everyday lives to examine the numer­ ous and complex issues within American politics. In this way, special interest groups bridge the gap between the highly educated and informed elected officials and the indifferent (by nature) electorate. In general, most special interest groups represent large constituencies rather than a few wealthy individuals and are therefore fully justified in their support of political candidates who support their causes. Every government official past and present, including George Bush and president-elect Bill Clinton, have been and will continue to be very selective of which special interest they entertain in their adminis­ tration — rather than trying to be all things to all men. It is not the special interests themselves, but their demise through political censorship, that threatens our republic. James A. Long Box 15430 Women should not be allowed in combat To the Editor: Once again Brian Winkler has skimmed the top of popular culture for another column.

That is far from the case. From 1982 to 1992 Appalachian grew at a rate of only 1.5 percent a year. The rate in the last few years has been even slower: over the last three years we have grown at a rate of less than half a percent (about 50 students) per year. Other similar schools have grown much faster. East Carolina is up 33 percent, UNCC — 52 percent and Wilmington — 48 percent from 1982 to 1992, compared to 15.9 percent for Appalachian. The entire University of North Carolina system has grown by over 22 percent in the last 10 years. The university plans to grow at a rate of about 50 students per year. Doing this requires predicting how many of the students we admit will actually come and how many present students will return. Since people are unpredict­ able, there will always be some difference between what we try to do and what happens. For example, of the new students that we admitted this year more actually came than we expected, so we were a bit over in enrollment. There were surprises in other years as well, but Appalachian has hit its enrollment targets quite well lately. Appalachian has recruited better and better students over the last few years and about the right number of them. 1 think that on this issue the chancellor and the university deserve credit rather than blame. Jimmy Smith Mathematical Sciences America's youth must practice abstinence To the Editor: I just finished reading Tracy Tarleton's column, "Students are failing Sex Education", Nov. 19. Her comments were right on target, and 1 wholeheartedly agree with her that abstinence is the only safe way to prevent the spread of sexually transmit­ ted diseases. It is beyond my compre­ hension why educators will not emphasize abstinence in sex education programs. I wish Tarleton's article could be read by every teenager in this country; I intend to share copies of it with my two teenage daughters and their friends. I hope that many of the students here at Appalachian read the column and will take it to heart. I would like to thank her for speaking out on what young people need to hear about "safe sex." In an ill-tempered essay in the Appalachian on Sept. 29, 1992, entitled Lois Evans Student Development SSG Randall Reinink U.S. Army Reserve D Co. 2/518th V08th Infantry Div. Box 10503 "—Oscar Penegar, Jr., after receiving the Episcopal Church s Distin8lushed Commuinicant Award for the Western North Carolina Dionece. Penegar teaches that if man was endowed with the right to dominate the Earth, he was also endowed with a responsibility not to manipulate and exploit history in his Nov. 17 column, 'U.S. military will "protect" the weak,' to argue that women are ready for combat. Winkler treated the issue in his usual flippant style. But this topic is one of life and death, not for him, but for the soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines of the United States of America. I've served in the Army, and I've seen women perform their duties. By and large they do well. As individuals they do no better or worse than men. But as a group they have one serious drawback: Women are not as strong as men. Sure, women can shoot a rifle just as easily as a man. But can she carry the equipment over the terrain in the time necessary? Try carrying a 60pound pack over hills or swamps for 15 miles in a couple of hours. It's even worse if you're carrying the M-60 machine gun (about 23 extra pounds of deadweight). Even the Army's Physical Readiness Test is slanted to favor women. This test has three events: the pushup, situp and two mile run. As a 29-year-old male I have to perform a minimum of 38 correct pushups. A 29-year-old woman has to do only 15. That's less than half! For the situps I'll have to do 42.. . she'll need only 40. And the 2milerun? I need to run it in 17:18; she can saunter in about 2 and a half minutes later at 19:42. I'd like Winkler to try this simple test. Put on a full combat load: uniform, ammo, gas mask, canteen, helmet and "flak jacket," Let him play the part of the wounded "hero." Have Lisa Mullikin drag him to safety — for about 50 meters — while someone shoots at them. I think he'd figure out very quickly why strength is important. Strength is one reason why women don't need to be in combat. But some women are determined to get into the combat arm, and I'll tell you why. Promotions are quicker in the combat specialties. The combat jobs are dirty jobs. They require long hours of unpleasant training, and their mission is to KILL. Gel that through your noggin. The military is around to kill people and break things. It's not a convenient organization used to perform social experiments in equality. Finally, ask yourself this question: will the cause of equality be served by having women come home in body bags? To the Editor. "—Michig'an State Rep. Joseph Palamara, after the Michigan House passed a bill that would make it a felony to help someone kill, themselves. The bill, which still needs approval by the Michigan Senate, was passed shortly after Dr. Jack Kevorkian assisted in a sixth suicide. rilan>s didn't care enough. Check the numbers, folks. If Snyder is right, that's 23 million homeless dying each year. I confess that I haven't seen a massive influx of the dead. We're doing things to raise awareness rather than to fix the problem. The "hunger strike" was a novel idea, butnot one homeless person got off the streets as a result. Notice how every time a job training program is put forward to train them, a few people scream that we're taking advantage of the homeless? We are pelted by somber stories the first freezing night when a homeless person is found dead. A few days later, after the autopsy, it is revealed that his bloodalcohol level was .18, and he died from cirrhosis of the liver. All of this is the fault of the inequitable distribution of resources under capitalism. We're told that's the prob­ lem. Wrong! If there were more capitalism, there would be less shortages. If capitalism is so bad, how is it that the United States is able to feed almost all our people and much of the world as well? If the eighties, said to be the greed driven decade of capitalism, was so uncaring, why did charitablecontributions risedramatically during that time? People need to start shouldering their share of burden in this country. When the people who are being bled dry say, "Enough," they arc called selfish. The tax eaters will soon outnumber the tax producers. Maybe people should remember lack Kemp's famous saying, "Com­ passion should not be measured by how many people need a government check, but rather by how many no longer need one." Finally, we are being told that the American safely net has too many holes in it and people are slipping through. To quote Dr. Rush Limbaugh, "The problem is not that the safety net has too many holes. Theproblem is that too many people are using that net as a hammock." Combat is a matter of survival, not equality ie Appalachian campus has evolved from a small college where a stranger be spotted a mile away into a much largercampus where the majority of the ents are strangers to each other. With this shift to less familiarity comes a of some security. ppalachian currently has a drive-in security force. When a crime is tmitted, the ASU Police will drive up to the scene of the crime. Rarely do see officers walking around at night trying to prevent crime. Instead the ice drive around campus confined in their cars. ippalachian needs more police patrolling the campus on foot. A police cer walking around campus would be much more likely to hear someone am than an officer enclosed in a car. Someone contemplating committing ime would probably fear someone quietly walking up behind them more noisy police car driving up. The ASU Police should consider taking the ninutes it would require to cover campus on foot, ne strong argument for police patrolling in cars is the speed it would give to get to a crime scene. However, with the Appalachian campus, traveling ar is not always the fastest option. For example if a cri me occurred in Cone idence Hall and the closest officer was between Varsity Gym and the teria, it would be faster to travel by bike than to drive a car. igh crime areas have police forces that operate both patrolling vehicles and or bike patrols. Police on fool or on bikes are more capable of covering the talleys and secluded places that cars cannot get to. What good is patrolling irea, when the officer can only see part of it. stronger escort service is needed in addition to foot patrol. For years the ent government association has operated the Mountaineer Escort Service 'alk students across campus after dark. The escorts have provided a vital 'ce to the campus, but as the SGA recognizes, they are not qualified to screen their escorts. The ASU Police are qualified. ASU Police could ,er serve the campus and provide more security by operating an escort ice. The service is needed every night between dusk and dawn. With the ted manpower and expertise of the current Mountaineer Escort Service, can not provide the quality of service that the ASU Police would be able ffer. peacetime tax increase in history, saying it would help reduce the deficit. The deficit has hit S400 billion a year and Congress is screaming for more taxes. Dan Rostenkowske, the House Ways and Means Chairman, said, "We'll all have to sacrifice in order to fix our problems." What does he think we've been doing because of his policies? Then there's AIDS. Don't get me wrong, it is a terrible disease, but it is also 90 percent behaviorally spread. Yet, even though we are spending more on AIDS than cancer, and more people died of the flu last year than of the AIDS virus; we are told that we aren'tdoing enough. There's one thing people could do: STOP AROUND! Instead, children in most school districts (84 percent of which the parents aren't given any say about it) are handed condoms and told that since we can't stop them, have a condom. While we're at it, we can't stop kids from using drugs, so why don't we hand out clean needles and purified drugs in homeroom? Honestly, if you knew someone had aids and you had only a condom to protect yourself, would you still have sex with them? We're teaching our kids in school about primitive Africa instead of Aristotle. Everything else is going down the tubes. Our kids are scoring lower and lower each year and falling rapidly behind kids from backwater European and Asian countries because we're caught up in leaching feel good nonsense rather than giving a real education. We all know Ronald Reagan created the homeless and George Bush perpetuated the problem. According to homeless rights advocate Mitch Snyder, the homeless, as they are now called (when my dad was young, they were called bums), are now at 3 million and 45 die every second.

No weapon was report­ edly used. Appalachian police continued its in- The campus police log described the alleged attacker as a husky white male with dark hair wearing a red jacket and blue jeans. A residence assistant in East residence hall told police she saw a per­ son fitting the description walking up Howard Street toward the ASU post of­ fice at 12:06 a.m. Monday morning. Campus police called in extra officers Sunday night to secure the university and notified Boone Police of the incident, said Director of Public Safety Roy Tugman.

The alleged "Calling in the SBI is not procedure but a long-standing policy when a serious crime has been committed,"said Tugman. When asked about the chances of find­ ing the attacker Tugman said, "We are investigating. We are optimistic we will catch someone." Tugman, however, described the crime scene as "very destructive" due to the heavy rains Sunday night. "Residence Hall staff took the woman to the hospital between 6:30-7:00 p.m. Sunday night," saidTugman. The woman was treated and released that night. ASU police procedure states a counse­ lor is called to assist the victim when a rape is reported. In this case, the woman was enroute to the Watauga County hos­ pital when police received the report. SBI officials have provided a compos­ ite of the alleged attacker. T ugman would not release the woman's name, but described her as a while female student approximately 23 years old. The reported rape is the first report of a sexual assault this year, said Tugman. If the alleged assailant is arrested and charged with rape/sexual assault the case will be heard in the Watauga County Court. When asked if the woman will press chargesTugman said, "she is assisting us in this investigation so I presume she will."

More students take part in hearings By SUZI LANDIS Appalachian News Editor The Chancellor Search Committee heard input concerning the criteria for selecting a chancellor from students, fac­ ulty, staff and community last Thursday. The meeting was the last of two open hearings to establish guidelines for se­ lecting a new chancellor. The committee heard approximately three times the number of speakers com­ pared to the first open hearing, said Dan Gurley, Student Government Association President and committee member. "For the most part we had to cut back speaking time from ten to fiveminutes,"said Gurley.

"We do have a responsibility now... to support this committee." ASU student Christopher Dodd, offcampus senator and member of the judi­ cial board, shared a survey completed on the criteria for a chancellor by off-cam­ pus students. The survey concludes the students desire a chancellor committed to growth, is honest, trustworthy and nonbiased and has a strong academic and business background, said Dodd. Dodd challenged thecommiltee to make public next January issues that the com­ mittee is discussing without compromis­ ing individual persons."The key to this is that the committee holds another open meeting in which to discuss these issues," said Dodd. A chancellor who promotes diversity throughout the campus was another com­ mon topic for student speakers. Dr. Zaphon Wilson, assistant political sci­ ence professor, spoke during the 3:004:15 p.m. time slot on the lack of black faculty representation. Wilson asked the committee to reconsider its composition and recommended expanding the com­ mittee to represent Afro-American fac­ ulty. Wilson pointed out that the committee did not represent the diversity of the uni­ versity. Wilson suggested that the com­ mittee publicly announce that adding a black faculty committee member was not important to the process as an alterative to expanding the committee.

"We hope to inconvenience students as little as possible," said Parker. "We will do everything in our power to make it safe and usable." Parker also said that parking will be less of a problem due to the Whitener lot. Construction is scheduled to begin in early January.

Parker said it is a possibility that stu­ dents will be able to take classes not available at ASU through the system. " The system will enable students who have to attend meetings away from cam­ pus, to take part without even leaving the university," said Parker. The 24-hour study room was chosen to house the system due to its location in the library. Also, lines are already in place to hook up the system to the library. The new study room will be moved to Whitener only temporarily since the new (CPS) George Bush, U.S. president, Republican, Yale '48, will be out of work on Jan. 20, 1993.

A 10-person search committee is look­ ing for a replacement for former Yale President Benno C.

Senate will hear grade appeal prop By DAWN MCGU1RE Appalachian Staff Writer The Student Government Association Senate will consider a grade appeal pro­ posal tonight which would provide stu­ dents a means to contest an unfairly given grade. Currently, Appalachian has no formal process by which a student can appeal a grade, one of the few schools in the sys­ tem without an appeals process. The bill, sponsored by the academic affairs committee, forms a committee in each college which would hear complaints and outlines the following guidelines to appeal a grade. The grade must be a final semester grade and the student must first address the instructor about the grade. If the instructor and student can not resolve the dispute, the student must present a written appeal to the department chair­ person. If the dispute still can not be resolved by the chairperson, the student can file an The faculty bill, which has not been appeal with the committee of the college.

Chancellor Continued from page 1 Dr. James Winder, professor of his­ tory, outlined criteria for a chancellor as a person who has a commitment to aca­ demics, recognizes a need for research and a need for teachers active in their fields, insists on foreign language require­ ments, and has a commitment to increas­ ing diversity and creating tolerant gradu­ ates. Henry J. Weaver, ASU policeman and alumnus, acknowledged a need for diver­ sity, but insisted on a chancellor that was committed to Appalachian's roots when he addressed the committee. As a staff member, alumnus and resident, Weaver stressed a chancellor's need to serve the region, be asteward of ASU heritage, and balance competing interests. All speakers, except Wilson, gave the Chancellor Search Committee their best wishes and appreciation for the job ahead of the committee. Thomas Chandler, chairman of the committee, thanked the speakers for their comments and ad­ journed the hearing to a closed session for the committee members. The recommendations and criteria heard by the committee Thursday will be compiled by a committee within the search committee. The compilation will then be incorporated into criteria for selecting a chancellor by the search committee. The committee hopes to have two candidates picked by April or May. UNC system President C.D. Spangler receives the two committee recommen­ dations and chooses one candidate to be approved by the Board of Governors. Spangler told the board of trustees that he hopes to have the process completed in time to have a new chancellor when stu­ dents return to classes next August.

The biggest holiday season is approaching, and ii seems like just yesterday we were moving back up to Boone in shorts and T-shirts. Thanksgiv­ ing is in just two days, and most people have been planning for "the biggest meal of the year" for weeks. "Thanksgiving" is a good name for the time before Christmas, because we should actually look at what we are thankful for before we get caught up in the Christmas rush. When I was growing up, I always thought of Thanksgiving as such a pain. It was an awful time. I had to get all dressed up in some prissy dress and sit at a table with all of my relatives. I would've rather been playing outside with my cousins. We had to travel so far to meet up with our family, that I couldn't understand why my mom would not just let me enjoy my time. The worst part of it was when my mom or "grandma" would make us go around the table and name one thing we were thankful for. To be honest, at the time, the only thing I could think of was that big pumpkin pie topped with whipped cream sitting in front of my face. Usually I was so incredibly hungry by the time we sat down to eat our Thanksgiving dinner, that the only thing I could possibly think ofwas food. With all the dishes sitting out on the table, it was very hard to think of anything else that I was thankful for. Anyway, now that I'm a little bit older and a little bit (not much) more mature, I see the significance of this incredible meal. There's a feeling that goes along with the holiday, no matter where you are or who you are celebrating w'th. People seem to be somewhat nicer to each ether, a little more caring and understanding around Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is like a small relaxation time rfore the chaos of Christmas shopping begins. a break before people begin to freak out over lank statements, check books and gift buying. This madness begins the day after Thanksgiving. I think Thanksgiving is a time to get away from material things, even if it's only for one fay- If you think about it, the food you eat had issentially been grown from the earth, even if it "as bought at the local Harris Teeter. There are 110 gifts given at this meal, no fighting with siblings over who got the biggest package, and no rea' worries over expenses yet. This peacefulness is something to be thankful or at Thanksgiving. Unfortunately this never 0c°ured to me when my mom asked us all to jaame one thing we were thankful for. Maybe ' use it this year. As I m on the subject of materialism, why has tostmas become the materialistic holiday that "has.' Why does it focus around shopping days, 1 wrapping, card buying, and basically money, money and more money? Is this what it is all about? To children, I think it is. They're innocent ^ know no better than to look forward to what ""'a Claus will bring them, and whether it will 'gger and better than what their other friends Allen had been a vital part of Appalachian's faculty for over twenty years; however this semester, he did not return. In the spring of last year, Dr. Allen developed vision problems resulting from glaucoma. The condition in­ creased until, in August, he was forced to have eye surgery. Glaucoma is an optic condition that affects the amount of fluid pressure in the eyes. It is caused by interference with theflow of the "aqueous humor," an optical transparent fluid. The fluid pressure in the eye becomes abnormally high causing the fluid to enter the 'eye too quickly or not drain well at all. The elevated pressure distorts the cornea in a way that bends light away from its original path. If left untreated, glaucomacauses a gradual narrowing of the vision. Allen is presently recuperating at his home. He still has some vision problems, but is not certain if they are simply a result of the surgery or a carry­ over from complications that he had before. His impaired vision makes reading difficult which natu­ rally affectshis job. Dr. Joel Thompson, chairperson of the political science department, assures that Allen is on a temporary disability leave only. He, as well as many others including Allen himself, hopes that Allen will be able to return as soon as possible. Dr. David Sutton, political science professor and long-timefriend of Allen, feels that with Allen's absence the school is missing more than just a good professor. Hestates,"Dr. Allen represents what the old-fashioned idea of college is all about. He is a student-oriented professor who really makes a dif­ ference in students' lives." He recalls one instance when Allen ran into a former student and not only remembered her name, but recollected her seat in the class as well. Students are Allen's top priority. Allen has won several awards for his excellence in teaching from student organizations such as SGA and the Alumni Association as well as the political science department. In teacher rankings, he comes out on top time and time again, and his classes are almost always filled. Sutton also adds that whenever he meets affiliates of Appalachian or alumni, they undoubtedly ask about Allen. Kenny Kidd, a former student of Allen, comments that what impressed him most about his class was that Allen knew everyone's name and background within a matter of days. He always appeared early for class so that he could talk with the students before the lecture began, he consistently spoke happily to those he knew and ran into around campus. He stressed an open-door policy for both his office and his apartment in Coffey Hall. Because he lived on campus with the students, Allen was loved and accepted even more. Once faculty apartments. Coffey Hall was home to Allen long before it housed the honor students. The school's administrators allowed Allen to remain there after its renovations because his vision made it slightly difficult for him to get around Boone. The residents of Coffey Hall took pride in their "resident professor" and welcomed him out into See ALLEN p,gc 4 %»feaa4P8j' r f DR.

You've eliminated any interrup­ tions or distractions. We have come to visit you in peace. This is a world of control and intuition, of placebos and zombies. The CD is called Satryricon (no real connection with the Fellini flick of the same name); the group is a techno pioneer calling themselves Meat Beat Manifesto. Conflict is what holds this disc together. The lyrics take on a world where free thought and individual action shift and bend under the gaze of society (the front cover shows the band members reflected in a funhouse mirror). Of course this is not an original theme in any way; it's almost a cliche but what is interesting here is how its own audience is not entirely excluded from the discrete critiques embedded within these seamless grooves. The music throughout Satryricon is fascinating, a wildly original backdrop for this lyrical control theme. The juxtaposition between sensuality and paranoia, a requisite for full-blown ravemania, is to be found here, in abundance. More importantly, the best never lets up (well, there's track 15, a raveresponse to John Cage—you knew his name had to come up before long). Jack Dangers, the prime architect of the Meat Beat sound, is out to prove that electronic music is just as valid as anything else, and musically Satryricon is a dense and com­ pelling collage of sounds in an alluring state of flux. Ain't nothing predictable going on here. And just to prove his "chops" ("pay his dues," "make his boldest creative assertion ever," etc.) the stream of sonic images is accented by mellolron, bass and some inhumanly distorted lap-steel guitar. All the fave primetime videohead soundbytes are present as well. A partial Chanel commercial has been delicately stitched into the guts of one song. Dan­ gers is a DJ/conceptualist/musician in a thoroughly post-MTV-post-mod way who knows what he is doing here, and maintains an awareness of the limitations of his genre. So he decides to play it for all the humor and/or satire it's worth—tongue-incheek whenever possible, and the results are a highly entertaining aluminum disc that shakes the mind AND the body. Now, just to get the official bottom line outta the way: this is a dance record. If you are diametrically opposed to the existence and the continued prolif­ eration of dance music quit reading immediately. "Mindstream," "Original Control" (both versions) and "The Edge of No Control" are all primo buttshaking material—heavy on atmosphere, way up on the beats-per-minute. but for quieter, at home listening, Satryricon delivers on its contrived premise surprisingly well. "Potsounds" is a soundby te from the life of the ritualistic stoner, and "Placebo" promises *bmethitjg (.hat w.ill "put you in Disneyland..can makeyOiir mitid expand,"keep­ ing in mind what a placebo is, of course. "Mindstream" even nudges toward popsong singalong. And the momentum and flow is not reduced one iota. Tongue-in-cheek or not, the main importance in a disc like this is not the lyrics; it's the music, which is fine enough. Satryricon is over one solid hour of great dance music (Meat Beat Manifesto's earlier releases Armed Audio War­ fare/1989, and 99%/1990 are also worth checking out). So, as George Clinton once proclaimed: 'Free your mind, and your a** will follow."There...you have it. Extreme's new release keeps band rockin' By CHRIS MARTIN Appalachian Staff Writer Extreme, the same band that brought MTV the hits "More Than Words" and "Hole Hearted," are back with their latest album "III Sides to Every Story." This album is a departure from their last two albums in that it is full of diverse musical styles. They have a little bit of everything from heavy hitting hard rock to metallic funk to orches­ trated ballads. Extreme is one of those metal bands that has been overlooked until they released a beautiful ballad that thecommercial audience would eat up, and did. Yet, to the surprise of those easy listening people that bought Pornografitti, they quickly found out that Extreme is more that meets the eye. Their third release does the same thing. This album is broken down into three sections. The first section is called Yours, and contains the heaviest songs on the album. The first track is entitled "Warheads" and has a good balance be­ tween heavy metal with a pop feel. The pop feel comes from the harmonized vocals and the singalong rhythm_of the words. The catch is that the lyrics are a biting commen­ tary on war. The first lines are biting enough when Gary Cherone, vocalist wails, "Hey kid,/ Wanna have some fun?/ Choose a side/ And here's your gun."The song is a definite cry out to the world that war isstupid. The next track, "Rest in Peace,"is the first single/video from the album, and it pay's homage to the late great Jimi Hendrix with the riff similar to that of the Hendrix classic "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" in fact playing the riff after the solo. This song starts off with strings, moves to the heavy rockin' riff, and ends with a beautiful acoustic part with vocals. The third track is "Politicalamity," another po­ litically oriented song lyrically, backed by some funky guitar work from Nuno Beltencourt, lead guitarist. The lines, "Rich 'n' poor/ Salute your country s colors/ less is more/ When one oppresses the other/ Pride 'n' power/ Decorated upon collars" is a biting commentary on the state of the Armed Services. The next track, "Color Me Blind," opens with a cappella harmonies, then breaking into a romping heavy metal tune. This song takes on the problem of racism saying, "I had a dream/ Last night I was blind/ And I couldn't see/ Color of any king. Cupid's Dead" is another funk song that has almost a rap feel to the vocals. The final track on the Yours section is "Peacemaker Die," another song about war, a weak track that is a cross breed of metal, blues and pop. The highlight of the song is a snippet of the infamous "I have a dream" speech from Martin Luther King Jr. The next section is called Mine, and it contains the mellow, more dramatic songs. It begins with 'Seven Sundays," a soulful power ballad, that has a gospel feel to it. This song contains some decent piano work from Bettencourt, which show thai he is a relatively talented individual. The next track is "Tragic Comic," which is a bluesy acoustic song reminiscent of "Hole Hearted" from the last album. The lyrics are hopelessly cheesy, about how he is a tragic comic because he does not know how to say I love you. Please! The next song is "Our Father" and is a slow grooving metal song with a very odd rhythm. This song is about a young man sad Sec RX I KEMK page 4 T 0 me ,1 look at Christmastime for the feeling "• For the atmosphere that it creates rather fian the ijj — Presents I will receive.

The Final section of the album is entilled The Truth, and is a combination of all of the musical styles on the whole album. This section is one song, "Every­ thing Under the Sun. broken down into three sections. The first part is "Rise 'N' Shine has very dramatic orchestration, acoustic guitar and beautiful vocal har­ monies. The lyrics are about how tomorrow is a new day and that there is something to look forward to The second pat is called Am I Ever Gonna Change," which starts off as a folk tvpe song and goes into a metal song, with a sermon in the middle This song is about how he wants to change because he is tired of the way he is, almost giving a "Go withGod" message. The final part is "Who Cares," which is the most dramatic song on this album. This one part contains everything trom the ballad feel, orchestration, and hard rock. This section brings to 1 ight the religious overtones and is almost like a confirmation of his religious be­ liefs. Overall, 1 feel that this album has some­ thing to offer everyone. It is full of uncompromised musical talent, some of the best vocal harmonies in a metal band, beautifully orchestrated music, and very hard hitting and important messages to take heed to. Extreme is one of the few metal bands that havea safe enough sound to appeal to even the most stodgiest crit­ ics. This is definitely and album worth listening to. Love Your Mother...

"I was concerned about Western Caro­ lina all week, but 1 felt that we were ready," ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore said. The Mountaineers took the lead in the fourth period with 8:32 remaining to play as the offense drove97 yards and quarter­ back D.J. Campbell rushed six yards for the touchdown. Jay Millson's extra point was good to put the Apps up 14-12 over the Catamounts. ' This was the crucial point in the game. 1 felt that we had to score at this time, and it gave our defense a rest, both physically and mentally," Moore said. The Apps' scoring drive was led by fullback J.K. Reaves who gained 26yards on a fourth-and-1 play before Campbell scored. Reaves accumulated a seasonhigh 134 yards rushing on the day. The Mountaineers scored on their first possession of the game as Reaves ran up the middle, running 65 yards for a touch­ down. Millson's extra point was good to give the Apps a 7-0 advantage. Early in the second quarter, Western Carolina scored afterscampering 77 yards on 11 plays as quarterback Lonnie Gallo­ way capped off the drive with a 4-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Kerry Hayes. Mountaineer Sean Swoope stepped in to block the extra point by WCU kicker Phil Shirley to allow his squad to hold on to a 7-6 lead in the contest. After the Apps took a 14-6 lead over Western Carolina, the Catamounts rallied back to score on an 80-yard, eight play drive. Galloway, the Division 1 -AA leader in passing efficiency, found Craig Aik^n in the end zone for an 11-yard touchdown pass to bring the score up to 14-12. The Catamounts attempted to tie the game with a two-point conversion play, butASU free safety Kenny Bright knocked away a pass that was intended for WCU's Brendan Fitzpatrick to keep the Apps ahead. The following drive began with ap­ proximately four minutes remaining on the clock and included a controversial pass fromCampbell to wide receiverCraig Styron. Styron and WCU comerback Willie Williams ran down the field after the long pass and a penalty flag was thrown by the officials after the ball fell incomplete. Officials called pass interference against Williams, and while Western Carolina got the ball back with 43 sec­ onds remaining in the game, the call lost them nearly three minutes in possession time. Williams believed if there was any interference it was against Styron as he See ASU page 6 Appalachian photos by Keith Jackson and Paul Lampe JNTAINEERS KEEP OLD MOUNTAIN JUG: ASU's 14-12 win over WCU allowed them to keep the Old Mountain Jug for the eighth consecutive year.

The Citadel wins conference title By STACY BRANCH Appalachian Staff Writer The Citadel captured the Southern Conference crown in the final week of league football as they ran past Furman, 20-14, last Saturday in Greenville, SC. The Bulldogs were led by fullback Everette Sands who rushed 120 yards and scored a touchdown. Quarterback Jack Douglas added 93 yards rushing and an additional 27 yards in passing. The conference title is the first for The Citadel since 1961. Bulldog Carl Tremble set two records on the day as he became the SC's leading rusher inhistory with 4,645 yards to break the eld record established by ASU's John Settle. Tremble also broke fellow Bull­ dog Stanford Jenning's single-season rushing record for The Citadel as he to­ taled 1,555 yards on the season. The Citadel, 6-1 and 10-1, will play against North Carolina A&T in Charles­ ton, SC, this weekend in the first round of the Division 1-AA playoffs while Furman's Paladins stay at home with a 43 and 6-5 mark for fifth in the SC. Appalachian State finished in a "true" second in the SC as they slipped past Western Carolina, 14-12 at home. The Mountaineers finish the season at 5-2 and 7-4, to match conference stand­ ings of both WCU and Marshall, both of whom ASU defeated this season. The Apps will travel to Murfreesboro, TN, this weekend to challenge Middle Tennessee State in the playoffs while the Catamounts closed their season with a 74 record for third in the league. Marshall routed East Tennessee State, 49-10, as quarterback Michael Payton threw for three touchdowns for the Thun­ dering Herd in JohnsonCity, TN. Marshall finished the year in fourth place at 5-2 and 8-3 while the Buccaneers finish at 2-5 and 5-6 for fifth place. Marshall will host Eastern Kentucky in round one of postseason play this week­ end. Virginia Military Institute edged past the University of Tennessee at Chatta­ nooga, 37-34, in a battle of pride.

There is now a bill Ifore the SGA and faculty senate that will give students a way to contest what y believe to be an unfairly given grade. he proposal before the SGA would set up a committee in each college that uld be composed of three undergraduate students, three faculty, and one iduate student. The committee would be able to screen complaints based on guidelines and the decision of the committee would be binding. The proposal that will be considered next semester by the Faculty Senate iuld include three faculty, one undergraduate student and one graduate adent. Thedecisions made by this committee would not be binding and would ly be a recommendation to the professor. If this policy is going to work, the decisions made by the committees must binding. A decision that ultimately still rests on the professor that gave the adein the 1 irst place is useless. Why would a professor go through the whole ipeal process just to turn around and say.he or she gave the wrong grade after Most likely the professor will uphold the grade given to begin with. Appalachian is one of the last universities in the North Carolina system to insider the adoption of a grade appeal policy, according to SGA Academics lairs Chairman Tom Beaman. Beaman also said that in all other UNCstem schools the decisions of the appeal committees are binding. This grade appeal process is important because of all of the different things it can be responsible for getting an undeserved grade. The professor could tvesimply recorded the grades wrong or misplaced a grade. A few students vepersonal problems with a professor that they believe becomes reflected in irgrade. With the policy proposed by SGA, a student will havea means to ve an unbiased judgement made on the fairness of a grade received. This policy is not an attack against professors, but is a safety check on the item. At the moment, for some departments there is a way to challenge ades, but it is not formalized and not always done. With the adoption of a new hey, students will have set in writing exactly what they can do to protest a ide. Although there are many checks on the system to make sure that the appeal ttess is not abused, students must realize that this should be taken seriously. Appeals processshould be used to protest unfairgrades, not unwanted ones. Policy will only work if the decisions are binding and it is taken seriously. NEVER 1 vi/ 1 By ROBERT ROBERTSON Appalachian Columnist There have been a plethora of opinions and controversial stories circulated in the news as of late, and being the opinionated person that I am, I fell the desire to comment on the following issues. 1.) Why are so many people still badgering President-elect Clinton on avoiding the draft? It is impossible for anyone in this day and age, who wasn't a part of the era known as the Vietnam conflict, to say what they would and would not have done in Clinton's situation. It is easy to take the patriotic route and proclaim yourself as a sacrificial lamb for the United States when it is purely a hypothetical question. Besides, what is more important, giving one's life for your country or giving one's income to that same country? Those people who claim they would gladly and blindly give their lives to the government complain about the possibility of higher taxes. I, for one, don't rank money so dear in comparison with my life. 2.) It seems that Superman was impervious to any and all attacks except that of capitalism. His final issue will most likely surpass the sales record of 80 million copies, set by X-Man. Instead of the clean­ shaven, moralistic soldier he is now, expect to see a darker, more violent symbol of heroism. This new image, will hopefully raise sales. 3.) Is it just me, or is Rush Lintbaough simply Morton Downey Jr. with a higher budget and less tolerance? ormal grade appeal \ystem needed cowdom Fall '92: A melting pot of controversy PHIL McCARN Asst. Sports Editor nirnentary Editor «aw7lZhZi'n The ApPak,ch'an are TUESDAY, November 24, 1992 TERESA SMITH Production Coordinator i 4.) The gay rights movement has suffered a setback due to the voters in California, who barred homosexu­ als from protection under discrimination laws. Though no homophobe, I do have a hard time thinking that being gay is normal behavior. To say that someone is bom a certain way disturbs me. Would this theory mean that criminals as well as valedictori­ ans are bom or fated that way? Most diseases and sicknesses (cancer, AIDS, Parkinson's) occur naturally; should we strive to create cures to heal them? Is the fact that I'm attracted to blonds instead of brunettes an in-born trait that I can never change? How can homosexuals be a race when they cannot naturally reproduce? I consider these to be simple and intelligent questions and not just ignorant, prejudiced ramblings. I have never heard them answered without being labeled a hatemonger or some equivalent. 5.) Speaking of prejudice, go see Malcolm X. You may be surprised at what you learn (from Spike Lee's and Alex Harvey's point of view). Malcolm X states that African-Americans and European-Americans will never get along until each group first gets along with themselves. Believe me, it's worth the three hours and four dollars you spend whether your complexion happens to be black, white, red, yellow, a slight beige, pink, etc. 6.) It's not even Thanksgiving yet, and already I've grown accustomed to the early Christmas sales and displays in the local shops. So much for a Christian society where God comes first. As always, money makes the world go round. 7.) How about giving your professors a muchneeded confidence boost. Twice I've heard various students put down their instructors for not being easier. Hey, this is a university, not a high school. If you're having problems in a class handle them with maturity. There are students in your class who might aid you as well as various tutorial programs available on campus. The instructors arc all expected to post office hours and abide by them. There's simply no excuse to openly embarrass a professor in class due to your own failings as a student. Here's to you Schaffer, keep up the good work! 8.) 1 still find it hard to justify paying Alon/.o Mourning all that money before he even steps onto the court. Not only did he break several promises made to fans but he ignored the fact that the Hornet players did everything they could to sign him (five players deferred money). If the Hornets reach the play-offs, whoopee for you Alonzo. But if you bust, there will be hell to pay, Mr. Rookie. 9.) Getting closer to campus, why all the fuss about what we, the students, are looking for in a new chancellor? How many generic terms can you give for: open to students needs, energetic, educated and willing to work to better the university? I'm sure whomever the committee picks will be a fine choice. I doubt they'll appoint a two-time convicted murderer with no formal education, who is also a registered Republican. 10.) Why the criticism of the students for the Second Annual Run for the Braves? It's hard to get that kind of atmosphere after our 1:30 p.m. football games with parents and faculty around. All the Run did was give students an excuse to party on an otherwise boring, weekday night. Yes, tearing down the goal-posts was uncalled for, but the energy generated from the game was phenomenal. It was a game all youngsters dream of — two outs, two strikes, in the bottom of the ninth of the league championship. Suddenly, out of nowhere, some obscure batter smacks a hit which resulted in a daring slide into home-plate. It wasn't the fact that the Braves won; it was how they won. I just found it funny that the writer who blasted the crowd for beating dumpsters and taking a swim seemed like they wouldn't mind if students did these things for Appalachian's sake. 11.) Finally, how come more students don't voice their opinions in print? The Appalachian is your newspaper. If you have something to say, then say it. College is supposed to be the stomping ground of controversy and new ideas. If you disagree with an article, state your opinion and send it in. All points of view are welcome and encouraged whether liberal, conservative, environmental, personal, local, world wide, or just how you perceive an event, idea or moral. You just might change someone else's point of view or spark an intellectual debate. You never know until you try. Class of '93 can change future Alumni need a place they can call "home" fjloV<r Seniors should vote for the Alumni Center To the Editor: The Class of 1993 is about to cast a ballot for their Senior Class Gift, and I urge the seniors to vote for the proposed alumni center. I am a 1980 ASU graduate and I lake great pride in my diploma and my alma mater. My husband, another fellow ASU alumnus, and I make frequent trips to"the mountain." We love to roam the campus and reminisce about our days at Appala­ chian. Our visits to campus have always been special, and the many alumni events fill us with a renewed sense of nostalgia. There is something missing, however, and that is a single place to call "home." Perhaps a true appreciation for such a haven can only come about when one finally leaves or returns to Appalachian as an "outsider." The Class of 1993 is about to join our alumni ranks. Please join the efforts of your fellow alumni as we raise $1 million to create our dream — an "Alumni Center" we can ALL call home. Diana Williams Faison ASU Class of 1980 To the Editor: Class of 1993, consider making a mark on your future. . . As an Appalachian Alumni I want to encourage you to support the Alumni Center. The entire Appalachian family needs a home and it is important to have the Class of 1993 as a part of the support­ ing foundation to build this fine facility. It will be the central gateway to campus and will be a home where you can come back to meetings, socials and just good ol' visits. It will be the hub of Alumni activity where you as future Alumni will always be welcome. Jeannine Underdown Collins ASU Class of 1989 Chairperson, Class of 1979 Reunion Alumni Center will be a gateway to ASU Open Letter to Seniors: As representatives of the more than 58,000 proud alumni of Appalachian State University, we are asking for your con­ sideration regarding the disbursement of your Senior Class Gift. We ask that you consider designating the funds now being raised to help build a new Alumni Center at the entrance to our university on High­ way 321 and Rivers Street. The new center will house not only the ASU Foundation's offices but those of OFF TOPAY WHAT YOU CAN DO NEXT PUT Alumni Affairs and the Student Ambas­ sadors as well. A large reception area for entertainment and conference room fa­ cilities are called foAo accommodate the needs of students, faculty and staff, in addition to alumni events. Through the volunteer efforts and the leadership of alumni across the nation and you, the members of the Senior Class of 1993, the Appalachian Stale Univer­ sity Alumni Center will be a flagship for the university and a symbol of its future. The Senior Class gift is a part of that future. We ask that you favorably vote to designate your funds to the new Alumni Center. N. Bradley Thompson ("82) Chairman, Fundraising Committee Robin A. Talbert ('82) Chairman, Architectural Committee AIDS is a behaviorrelated disease To the Editor: Robert Schmoll ("Clinton: guilty until proven innocent," Nov. 12) has missed the point entirely regarding criticisms of the Clinton administration's AIDS policy. No one has ever suggested that AIDS research is not a worthy investment, only that its goals are obviously misguided. The United States currently spends more money on AIDS research than on cancer, which kills over four times the number of citizens per year. AIDS is primarily contracted by sexual intercourse and intravenous drug abuse. Contraction of AIDS by other means isextremely rare, .making AIDS a primarily behavior - T e lated disease. ( Admit tedly.Ytlmc cancers are caused by tobacco products, but the behavior of smoking is rapidly on the decline and cancer is not.) Thesolution to AIDS does not lie in throwing massive amounts of money at finding a cure, but like most medical problems, in preven­ tion by way of changing one's behavior. Condoms and other forms of contra­ ception, while reducing one's chance of infection, are not sensible modes of pre­ vention against a disease with an eventual 100 percent fatality rate. This past election day, I overheard a young woman scoffing the Republican Party for having a platform based on religious views and traditional family values, asentimcnt that iscommonly over­ heard in discussions of any political issue in which morality is concerned. It is my contention that it is this "hopeless atti­ tude" that we should be concerned about rather than any differences we may have with a politician's platform. In the nine­ ties, our "progressive" attitudes towards sex and commitment seem to rival those of the si xties, but thanks to AIDS, we now know that even "free love" has an incred­ ible price. Our brain is the largest organ of the human reproductive system. Let's start using it instead of a condom. Rus­ sian Roulette is no fun when the gun is fully loaded. James A.

THE FAIRNESS, ACCURACY AND PUBLIC SERVICE SINCE 1934 .67 No. 22 APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, Boone, NC 28608 Thursday, November 19, 1992 SU Christmas vents cancelled DANE PERRY '' ppalachian Staff Writer Two Christmas events at Appalachian, „ Appalachian Christmas and the Mad;il Feaste, have been cancelled this v. 'Money is the reason for the cancellalof An Appalachian Christmas," re­ nted the Watauga Democrat. The event a been at Appalachian since 1987 and originally sponsored by the AppalaAian Slate Unij^rsity Women's Club. 1After the first year, the university took Iter the program. ASU would loan the Bsiival money for the program. The fesiil would pay the university back with - hatever money was taken in. 'For the past three years the festival essentially broken even," said Dr. hales Watkins, director of the festival. Tiere is some disagreement between the livcrsity and festival organizers whether not the festival broke even, depending t how unsold inventory is counted. "What may be seen as a $100 loss on iper can be a financial gain later if a parent has attended acultural event and is attracted to the campus and sends his or her child to Appalachian State Univer­ sity," said Watkins. The second event cancelled was The Madrigal Feaste, sponsored by the School of Music. The event includes an Elizabe­ than dinner where all the workers dress in Elizabethan outfits. "Bad timing is the culprit in the cancellation of The Madri­ gal Feaste," reported the Watauga Demo­ crat. 'The problem with holding The" Mad­ rigal Feaste this year is that a new choral director was hired at the end of the sum­ mer and he did not have time to prepare al I the music and singers for the event,"said Dr. Art Unsworth, dean of the music school and head of The Madrigal Feaste. The School of Music also said the can­ cellation of The Madrigal Feaste is partly because, "with the semester ending in early December the event would have to run the kids into exam week after Thanksgiving and having it before Thanksgiving seemed ridiculous," ex­ plained Unsworth.

Each choice is still in the idea stage. Several possibilities exist for each choice. Help for Appalachian's handicapped could be broken down into two aspects. Money raised could be used to purchase hearing impaired devices and folding and/or motorized wheelchairs. Also, money could be put in an endowment fund "to continue support for the handicapped into the future" explained the senior committee's flyer to the se­ niors. The outdoor amphitheater project is an enhancement to a planned amphitheater as part of the addition to Plemmons Stu­ dent Union. The seniors would provide money for construction of a cover to the amphitheater and artwork displayed in the surrounding area.

Computer technology links ASU to schools By KARLA SMITH Appalachian Staff Writer Through the Distance Learning Pro­ gram in the College of Education, stu­ dents at Appalachian State and three local schools can leam together using com­ puter technology. The distance learning lab is set up with 20 computers capable of using phone lines to communicate. Watauga High School, Parkway Elementary School and Blowing Rock School are equipped with the samecomputers. Thestudents can use the computers to study together. "The program is designed to use ad­ vanced communication capabilities in an educational setting," said Dr. Richard Riedl, educational foundations pro­ fessor. Another computer in the lab is capable of scanning images or graphics and transmilting them to the other labs. Students can write on the images, and each lab shows the work simultaneously. Students are also able to use the com­ puter lab to communicate by video. The video conference can expand the tradi­ tional classroom setting. Students leam and communicate from separate locations. Using the video conference, ASU faculty can work with student teachers, and high school students can work with elemen­ tary students. "The video conference technology is as simple as using a phone line," Riedl said. ASU has recently joined an after-school program at the elementary schools. Stu­ dents in the Introduction to Education class can leam while helping elementary students with homework by using the computer system. "Educators are just beginning to real­ ize the powerful teaching tool they have in computers," said John R. Craft, tech­ nology professor. The distance learning technology pro­ gram started in March and is still in the beginning stages. Next semester, the lab will have teachers who can spend more time developing the program. "It has taken time to make things hap­ pen," said Riedl. "The program has worked, because people have dedicated their extra time to it." The distance learning technology pro­ gram is the result of a partnership be­ tween ASU, AT&T and Bell South. Each partner looks for ways to contribute to the program. Senate appoints election committee after questioning By DAWN MCGUIRE Appalachian Staff Writer kte. jji''ng classes Hlered fee 3 'fruits N men's and f°men's ^.batt squads ^Pcoming seasoi Jllloentarv Pregnancies, ^nd AIDS The Student Government Association Senate approved election committee ap­ pointments Tuesday night, after exten­ sive debate and questioning of the candi­ dates. Mark Gaines, Dawn Fox, Marc Millis and Keith Van Wagner were approved to the committee, which is responsible for seeing that election rules and procedures are followed and addressing any viola­ tions., Senators questioned the candidates on their experience and understanding of the election rules and by-laws. Keith Van Wagner was questioned about his objec­ tivity, as he had campaigned last spring for Dan Gurley and Doug Duncan, cur­ rently student body president and vice president. "First, you are assuming the Dan and Doug will run again, which they have not indicated," said Van Wagner. "However, even if they do run, I feel strongly that I can and will maintain objectivity and would not accept the position if I thought I could riot." Van Wagner, who is the assistant rules chair, said the by-laws give him a seat on the committee, but the wording required him to receive senate approval. The stu­ dent government election by-laws indi­ cate specific roles for the assistant rules chair on the election committee. Debate alsosurrounded Fox, with sena­ tors focusing on answers she gave during a screening interview by the rules com­ mittee. During the interview. Fox said she "wasn't sure of the specifics"of some election procedures. "I have read the by-laws and do under­ stand them," Fox told senate. "Maybe I didn't clarify myself enough during the rules interview." All four candidates were approved by the senate; however Gaines' and Van Wagner's appointments were objected. In other business, the dead week pro­ posal which was planned to come before senate was tabled in the rules committee, which screens bills before they are pre­ sented to the senate. The proposal calling for an academic and social dead week was tabled because some members of the rules com­ mittee felt that there had not been enough input from clubs and organiza­ tions. "There was a lot of study done on faculty and student opinions, but we felt more research was needed on clubs' and organizations' opinions," said Meagan Jones, chairperson of the rules commit­ tee. Gurley and Duncan spoke to senate on suggestions for streamlining student government, including reducing senate size, combining the off-campus and community affairs committees, and ask­ ing security to take over Mountaineer Escort. "We want to look at the questions of 'Does SGA work?' and 'How it can be improved?'" said Gurley. Gurley also read a letter from Tom Chandler, chairperson of the Chancellor Search Committee, responding to a sen­ ate resolution asking that additional stu­ dents be placed on the committee. Chandler placed the resolution before the committee and the committee voted to remain with 16 members, according to Gurley. Chandler added in the letter that students could have input tJtrough Gurley and Duncan, who are committee mem­ bers. In committee reports, Chad Schneckenburger, student affairs com­ mittee chairperson, said he had given information to Jim Rice on adding more bike racks and expects new racks to be out soon. Also, the Academic Affairs Commit­ tee is planning to form a university tradi­ tions task force, which would promote education of ASU's history. Amy Carver, off-campus affairs com mittee chairperson, told senate that the committee is planning to hold a rental fair sometime in February in which students can meet with apartment housing man agement. The Senate expects to hear a bill on grade appeal at next Tuesday's meeting. Hepatitis B cases rise (CPS)- Health officials are worried about a surge in hepatitis B cases among col­ lege-age people. The nation's rate of infection has doubled in the past 10 years, with cases among heterosexual young adults up 77 percent. More than one-third of the 300,000 Americans infected each year with hepatitis B are college-age adults, according to Atlanta's Centers for Dis­ ease Control. Appalachian's infirmary has not seen a rise in hepatitis B cases, according to Edith Fuller, R.N., director of nursing for the medical center. "It's important to get hepatitis B vaccinations. We don't want to wait until an increase in cases hap­ pens," said Fuller. The ASU infirmary offers vaccinations to employees only. "It's a lot of trouble getting the vaccination for the employees," said Fuller. The cost of the vaccination is an obstacle for offering the vaccination to everyone explained Fuller. A hepatitis B vaccination series cost the infirmary $90. Fuller hopes the price will decrease next year, making it pos­ sible to offer the vaccination to stud Students will be required to pay fo vaccination if it becomes available, has not yet been determined. A nationwide program to make yi people aware of hepatitis B was laun Oct. 30 at a college media conven with MTV-like posters and educat brochures urging vaccination again.' highly contagious virus.

Money for a library fund, which was last year's class gift, would enable Belk library to purchase new books, equipment and periodicals. "The library is much too small and illequipped in comparison to the size of the university, so I would vote for a library fund," said senior Denise Pryor. "Out of our choices, I feel the library fund would benefit the school in the fu­ ture," agreed senior Amy Michel. Since ASU has acquired the old McDonald's as a new alumni center, the seniors will decide if the class gift should be used toward renovations of the build­ ing.

While this may mean travel home and reminding yourself that you still have unity, it is also a time to give thanks and for most us catch our breath and grope for that second to finish out one more week of classes and dure finals.

By ROBIN MARTIN Appalachian StaffWriter The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says on the average, each person in the United States accumulates about4 poundsof trash per day. That means Americans throw away about 180 million tons of trash a year. The community of Boone has decided that this trash situation is unac­ ceptable. Various V.I.P.'s of the community of Boone have made a "Recycle Boone" commercial that is running on High Country Cable. Individuals featured in the commercial include the mayor of Boone, Appalachian's Chancellor Thomas, and students such as Hunter Schofield who is involved with SAVE (Students Actively Volunteering for the Environment). Last year a little over 2,400 tons of trash went into Watauga County's landfill from Appalachian State University. The campus has already recycled over 172,000 of the two million beverage cans generated each year. But Schofield feels that stu­ dents can and should do more to become involved in improving our environment. Schofield says the challenge for the recycling program on campus is to make it more convenient to students. Currently there are recycling bins outside every dorm on campus and trash recepticles located inside the dorms. SAVE is hoping to change this situation by bringing the recycling program inside the resi­ dence halls. Surveys will be appearing in residence halls soon to measure the amount of student support there would be for a more convenient recycling program. Schofield says students can show their support through the surveys in addition to voicing their enthusiasm for the program to Residence Facilities and Residence Life representatives. According to SAVE the show of or lack of support in the surveys will either make or break the move­ ment for more convenient recycling programs on campus. One of the main problems with the current recycling program is the problem of contaimination. If items other than what is speci­ fied are thrown into recycling bins, the bin is contaminated and the whole bin gets trashed. For example, many people putClearly Canadian bottles in with the clear glass containers which causes contamination. The Clearly Canadian bottles are considered to be green glass due to their slight tint. If you are interested in finding out more about the recycling situation and how you can become more involved, go by the Plemmons Student Union where SAVE has set up a booth to address ques­ tions and problems of the current program. Hunter Schofield says that each individual should con­ sider the impact they can makeon our environment. He also urges students "to take advantage of the option (to recycle) while we have it because some­ day the choice will be taken away." Schofield urges each student to do his or her part and to become involved.

The current recycling program suffers from contamination when recyclable objects are not sorted properly. SAVE is one group on campus hoping to make recycling easier and more available. Redford's new film insightful but not high action By CANDA F. SMITH Appalachian Managing Editor "A River RunsThrough It" is a lively tale of two brothers and their experiences growing up together in Montana. The story is directed by Robert Redford based on the novel by Norman Maclean. The movie never has an explosive climax with blood, guts and sex but, rather, it has an underlying theme only for the viewers to figure out for them­ selves. For people who have a difficult time sitting down through movies, I do not suggest this film. However, for viewers who enjoy peaceful and simple entertainment, catch this movie before it leaves the box office; it's worth four dollars. Craig Sheffer and Brad Pitt are the only children of a Presbyterian minister (played by Tom Skerritt) and his wife (Emily Lloyd.) The story takes place in the years 1910-1935 around breathtaking nature scenes. Fly fishing becomes the theme in the mpvic. When the family experiences tumultous times, fly fishing is the sport and the art that brings the brothers and their father back together. Through the camera, Redford captures the true essence of the sport and portrays it as an art, just as the movie suggests. The motionsof the fishing line move like a paint brush gracefully plunging into the creek seizing its victim. Redford is so conscious in his environmental efforts that he makes sure none of the fish in the film were actually killed. The natural scenes were tremendous, although the plot and the characterization are aspects of film- making that Redford needs to perfect. Certain aspects are never madecompletely clear in the film. While Brad Pitt, the cowboy from "Thelma and Louise," is the rambunctious journal ist who drinks and gambles himself to his death, he never~sKows any outward signs of corruption. He always appears unrealistically pristine and selfconfident during adulthood as if he was still 16. Craig Sheffer plays the more practical and pre­ dictable older brother who goes to college and ends up as a professor at the University of Chicago. The book is based on a true story, and in reality, the older brother ends up staying at the university and is known as a hero, very well-liked and respected. Sheffer'spcrsonality isassumed to be less than that of his younger brother, and one would predict that the more dependable brother would be dull and unentici^g. However, Sheffer is so sexy and allur­ ing in this movie that he picks up the screen and puts it in his back pocket. The movie could be accused of being dull and uneventful to viewers accustomed to high-action films, but if you are a person interested in expand­ ing your mind, this film will be the most insightful film you will see all year.

Most of all be the light is not too far ahead. One very popular class surrounded by miscon­ ceptions is theskiing courseoffered by the university that is taught at Appalachian Ski Slopes. The director of this course, Jim Cottrell, is disturbed by the misconceptions about his course. "People are telling the freshmen that there's no room foT them in skiing and that it is a highly demanded course." he said. In fact, because of the previous high demand for the skiing course, Cottrell has opened several other sections so that skiing is now offered on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights. "We have expanded enrollment spaces from 300 to 1500in the past three years,"said Cottrell. "There are still plenty of spaces available." Another misconception is that intermediate and advanced skiers have nothing to gain from taking a ski course. Cottrell stresses that this idea is wrong. "There are two section numbers for skiing, and the second number [1046] is for intermediate to advanced skiers. In fact, a race training program is offered to advanced skiers on Thursday nights," he said. The final misconception that Cottrell wanted to address is that once students take intermediate skiing they are ineligible to take beginning skiing. "This idea is false," says Cottrell. "If you have already taken intermediateskiing and would like to take part in the race training or advanced skiing instruction, you can sign up for beginning skiing and get advanced instruction," he said. Also, the price of the course is accessible to almost all students. For one indoor lesson and five lessons on the slopes, the price is S99. This price includes the instruction, the equipment, and the lift pass for the five on-s!ope lessons. If equipment is not needed, then the price is S94.

Six of the ten matches in Appalachian's nnual Black and Gold inner-squad wrestoumament were decided by two Joints or less last night to determine the eam's starting line-up. The Black team Seated the Gold 24-10. •'We knew at the beginning of the match ,ere would be a lot of close matches, lecause there is a lot of talent on this eam/'saidheadcoach Paul Mance. "Most f the matches came out the way I exected them. Some of them I couldn't ave called anyway." Bobby Holliday defeated Troy Williamson in the 118-pound division to ike the first win for the Black team. Other winners from the Black team Klude All-American Donnell Rawls, like King, Chad Collins, Bill Baker, eth Meyerson and John Reynolds. Gold winners were Victor Balmaceda, orey Creech and Melvin Crosby. 'The second-string kids are very good Testlers. When you've got kids that are lat close talent-wise, and they have to Testle each other every day, the matches re going to be close."

ASU will kick off the season at the Carolina Open on Nov. 21 Mountaineer basketball squads gear up for exciting seasons Vien to feature new style of play with shorter, quicker lineup Ym^CARN achian Assistant Sports Editor 199 m The Mountaineer men's basketball sam will be running and gunning in their 992-93 campaign with a new style of lay that promises to be an exciting tranition from years past. "We have really changed our style of hy." said seventh-year head coach To m ipke. "We have traditionally been an 'sideoriented, power team. This year we E looking to run a lot more, shoot quicker td shoot more threes." The Mountaineers are forced to get "ay from the post-oriented style of play *10 the loss of two key big men in S teve WlockandTim Powers. Spurlock, a6'forward, was twice named to the allauthern Conference team and scored at 14.3 point per game clip in his senior ason. Powers, a 6'-9" center, chipped in '•3 points per game and added 6.1 re­ funds a year ago while providing con•tent play in the middle. The lossof starting point guard Rodney will also be a question mark for the young Apps. Peel contributed 10.6 points per game and added nearly five assists a contest. To compensate for these losses Apkc has installed an up-tempo philosophy that will utilize the quickness and sharpshoot ing of his talented crew. Returning from last year's squad (1514 overall, 9-5 in SC) is 6'-6" senior Billy Ross. Ross led the Apps by averaging nearly 16 points a contest and should fit right in to the Mountaineer's new style of play. "Billy will get another five or six shots a game," said Apke. "I feel like he could lead the league in scoring." Ricky Nedd is the only other returning starter for the Mountaineers. Ncdd, a 6'7" junior from New York city, averaged 7.6 points per game a year ago and is considered one of the most versatile big men in the league. Also returning from last year's squad is 6'-7" sophomore Chad McClendon. McClendon was named to the SC's allfreshmen team last year despite seeing limited action. Jeff Williams, ajunior from Asheboro, N.C. and Joe Sabato, a senior from Weehawken, N.J. wi_U be called on to replace Peel. "Our point guard play is going to be crucial," said Apke. "Both of these guys have played well and they will both play a lot throughout the season." Tony Thompson, a 6'-4" guard, was expected to return and play a key role in the new system but was suspended indefinately due to academic reasons. "We are going to miss Tony," said Apke. "He is a really good player that scored 43 points in one of our inner-squad scrimmages." The absence of Thompson will open the door for six-foot sophomore William Cook and 6'-3" freshman Brian Hege. "These arc good young players," said Apke. "They arejust abit inexperienced." The Mountaineers will begin regular season play on Dec.l against Lander in Boone. "We're excited," said Apke of the up­ coming season. "We need the students and local fans to come out and see us run, jump, and shoot from way outside. It is gonna be a fun team to watch." Ladies will look to Roberson, Ikard and Lynch to lead the way By LYDIA CRAVER Appalachian Sports Editor The Lady Mountaineer basketball squad is gearing up for what should be an exciting season in 1992-93 as ASU re­ turns a number of key players from last season's roster and adds several promis­ ing newcomers. "I am thrilled about the upcoming sea­ son. We are very optimistic about this year and this is a realistic way to feel. We have so much more depth than in the past and we are a lot faster paced as well. Our increased offensive and defensive pres­ sure should also be a main factor for our success," ASU Head Coach Linda Robinson said. Coming off of the worst season in the last seven years, this season's squad will rely on the talents of 1991-92 all-South ern Conference picks Penny Roberson and Regina Ikard. Roberson, a junior guard/forward, averaged 14.7 points per game (ppg) and "is stronger and quicker than ever," according to Robinson. Ikard, a senior center, averaged 13.0 ppg and7.4 rebounds per game (rpg) and will be looked to for leadership. Senior guard Sheryl Lynch will also be a driving force for the Lady Apps. Lynch, ASU's most aggressive player, averaged 10.4 ppg last year. Other key returners for the Lady Apps will include senior forward Paula Crowe •who averaged 6.0 ppg and 4.1 rpg and senior forward/center Kim Pearce who averaged 3.5 ppg and 3.4 rpg for ASU. Sophomores Beth Kilby and Tonya Goins, who filled the roles of guard and forward/center, respectively, will also provide depth for ASU. In addition to the seven returning play­ ers, Appalachian's roster will feature five newcomers. Leading the way will be junior college transfer Angie Crosby. Crosby, a for­ ward/center, has "a great possibility of starting," according to Robinson. Averaging 18.0ppgand 12.3 rpg at Ander­ son Junior College in Anderson, S.C., Crosby was a high school all-American selection. Karobna Karlquist will offer a spark to the Lady Mountaineers as she comes to the program from Helsinki, Finland. A former member of the Finnish National Team, Karlquist averaged 19.9 ppg and could possibly see some considerable playing time early in the year. Shannon Spencer will be pushing for playing time as well. A guard, she comes to ASU from Newton-Conover High in Newton, N.C. where she averaged 19.0 ppg, 6.1 rpg and five steals per game to lead her squad to a state champi­ onship. Amber Burgess and Leigh Jones are other additions to the Lady Apps' roster. Burgess, a graduate of Erwin High in Asheville, N.C., has made "tremendous progress," according to Robinson and totalled 97 blocks in a season in prep ball. Jones, who is working off of an ankle injury, averaged 20.0 ppg at West Wilkes High in Millers Creek, N.C. The Lady Apps will play an exhibition game against Russia's Team Volna on Nov. 23 before opening with UNCAsheville on Dec. 1.

Along with this increase came a cry for sex education programs in junior high and high schools. These programs promote "safe sex" by teaching stu­ dents about contraceptives and venereal disease preven­ tion. Some schools distribute birth control, usually condoms, to students. The concept of sex education programs sounds ideal — teach kids how to protect themselves and they won't get pregnant or catch sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Since 1970, the federal government has spent $3 billion promoting this concept. My question is, what have we gotten for our money? The Federal Centers for Disease Control estimate that there are one million casesof HIV infection nationwide. One in every 100 students who visits the infirmary at the University of Texas carries the deadly virus. Three million teenagers are infected with STDs every year. Sixty-three percent of all STD cases occur among those under the age of 25. Ten to 30 percent of 15 to 19-yearolds are infected with chlamydia, a disease that causes scarring and infertility. Over 20 different STDs are rampant among young people. Other problems associated with promiscuity — babies bom with birth defects, abortions and infertility — have taken their toll among teenagers. Epidemiolo­ gists say we've only seen the beginning. And school officials are promoting something called "safe sex"? Why isn't it working? Condoms, the most popularly distributed formof birth control in schools, have a failure rate of at least 15.7 percent, 36.3 percent in some cases. If condoms are this much of a failure at preventing pregnancy, are they successful in preventing disease? The HIV virus is one twenty-fifth the size of a sperm cell. Researchers studying latex gloves found that chan­ nels of five microns were able to penetrate the entire glove. HIV measures .1 microns. Relying on a condom as sole protection from AIDS is like wearing a bullet­ proof vest made from notebook paper. Our S3 billion hasn't done a whole lot of good.We need to change the sex education programs in high schools to promote an old-fashioned but tried-and-true value: abstinence. The Christian doctrine states that sex is best saved for marriage. Even for non-Christians, however, abstinence is no longer a moral issue; it's a safety issue. The only way to achieve "safe sex" is to wait for a monogamous relationship with a lifelong partner. Our government spends $450 million every year to try and prove this old-fashioned notion wrong. The failure of "safe sex" programs has proven it right. Our tax money has gone down the drain. Those against abstinence programs claim that kids won't listen to anyone preaching abstinence. Who says? Sixty-five percent of all high school females are virgins. Besides, according to Planned Parenthood, the major reason teens begin having sex is peer pressure. Since the federal government began its "safe sex" and contraception program in the 70's, teenage pregnancies have increased 87 percent. This is not to say that all teenagers will stop having sex if we begin teaching them that abstinence is the best method. However, fewer of them would begin if we stopped telling them that it's perfectly OK and everyone is doing iL Let's face it, America. There's only one solution left — the one so many people have been trying to avoid because it might cramp their style a little bit and cause them to actually have to live by some rules. But isn't saving the lives and health of our teenagers more impor­ tant? We must teach our high school students to save sex for the person they plan to spend the rest of their lives with. eniorsshould vote Chancellor selection must involve students to give scholarships SGA cannot take full responsibility for all Outof the five choices for the senior gift, a scholarship fund is the best option, scholarship in the name of the Class of 1993 would mean more to future udents than the other choices given by the Senior Committee. I Seniors have the chance to vote for one of five choices for a senior gift. The Itoices are: help for Appalachian's handicapped, additions to an outdoor jnphitheater, a library fund, funding for an alumni center project and a Iholarship fund. All of the choices are worthwhile, but the scholarship fund *ould give the Class of 1993 Seniors a chance to really help other students in die future. (( This scholarship would be the perfect way for the seniors of today to do thing for the seniors of tomorrow. The scholarship fund should be set up that it will continue indefinitely every year. The scholarship should go to five l-lime seniors every year and be performance based. The students should that they are involved in campus activities and have a good grade point wage of 3.0 or above. This does not need to be a full scholarship, but a reward" for becoming involved with the university and through that involve­ ment making it a better place. The money could be divided into five different holarships with one going to someone in each college. By the time students reach their senior year, they have invested a lot of time id money into Appalachian. This scholarship would be one way for the '93 "iors to say"thank you" to students who work hard to improve Appalachian, person who has been able to successfully juggle involvement in theclubs and tivities with keeping up a strong GPA deserves to be recognized. A scholarip would be a perfect way to do so. While the other choices for the class gift are all worthwhile, they each have eir own drawbacks. Helping ASU's handicapped is a nice thing to do, but it •w not offer the chance to help everyone. Building a cover and providing twork for the proposed outdoor amphitheater would certainly look nice, but ould not really help anyone. Another problem with this idea is that the iphitheater is still only"proposed". If money runs out, it will not be built. Yes, e alumni center probably needs money and it will be our future tie with the 'iversity, but there are other means of funding the renovations to the new "'ding. The final option is the library. There are two problems with the library oi«; one, that the Class of 1992 donated their gift to the library already, and 'o, that the library needs serious help that the Class of 1993 is not equipped handle, Eniors, consider the seniors of the future.

To the Editor: I would like to respond to several of the statements in The Appalachian editorial on Thursday, Nov. 12, 1992. Both Doug Duncan, the SGA Vice President, and I were disappointed in the lack of student participation in the recent Chancellor Search Committee hearing. Perhaps some of the lack of interestcould be attributed to failure of the notification to appear in The Appalachian until the Thursday before the Friday hearing. However, The Appalachian isn't the only source of local information. The announcement did appear in the Watauga Democrat on Monday before the hearing, was announced on WASU and was displayed on the ASU bulletin board over Appalnct. There were also posters advertising the hearing in high traffic areas around campus, including the Sweet Shop, Cafeteria and Post Office among others. The dates of the past hearing as well as the one on Thursday, Nov. 19 have been public knowledge since the announcement of the committee on Oct. 24. There have been several articles concerning the committee published in The Appala­ chian since then, but none of them carried dates. Why? To the credit of committee chairman, Tom Chandler, the floor was opened to all students present at the past hearing whether they were scheduled to speak or not. Only three chose to do so, and there were more present, some having been present through much of the day. With regards to SGA's efforts in the process, several items need to be mentioned. The hearings have been announced at every SGA meeting since Oct. 24. SGA senators are required to attend RSA meetings and to brief them on SGA activities. They were all encouraged to discuss the hearings at these meetings. SGA Senate meetings are televised over Appalnet on Wed. at 2:00 p.m., Thurs. at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. and Friday at 10:00 a.m. Doug and I have been visiting RSA meetings for the past several weeks, being at a number of them prior to the hearing. While accomplishing a campaign promise with these visits, we both took the opportunity to encourage student participation in the hearings, not only as individual students, but in the time slot open for campus organizations as well. Sadly, only one group spoke at that time. While SGA needs to do its part in this process, it is not the responsibility of SGA to be the communication link for the search committee. Students must take the initiative to speak out. SGA will do all it can to support student's efforts to be heard. Doug Duncan and I continue to invite your input on this entire process. Dan Gurley SGA President Faculty opinion is respected at ASU To the Editor: As we move the wheels of decision making and solicit job description characteristics to guide selection of a new chancellor, it may be appropriate to examine the track record of the incumbent with a short historical and comparative review, especially regarding the consultative role of the faculty in decision making. From 1968-70,1 was a faculty member at a public institution in a neighboring state. The administration there was very paternalistic and would not allow me to conduct a survey of faculty opinion regarding the establish­ ment of a faculty senate. They argued that faculty opinion about such matters was not relevant. All campus publica­ tions, including the student newspaper, were tightly controlled for conformity with official policy positions. In response to this intellectually restrictive atmosphere, I undertook to solicit written statements on university matters from faculty and produced a monthly newsletter which I assembled and duplicated off campus. There was no doubt that the administration was happy to see me leave as I sought a better academic climate at Appalachian State University. Shortly thereafter, the institution earned a well-deserved place on the national censure list of the American Association of University incident that occurred while I was employed there. In 1970 ASU was beginning to broaden the scope of faculty input with a recently formed Faculty Senate. As a member of this body in the early 70's I can recall its reluctance to pass any resolution that was thought to disagree with or present an alternative to a policy position of the chancellor. This timid attitude gradually changed so that by the end of the decade ASU was in the forefront of the sixteen member institutions of the University of North Carolina system pushing for a faculty voice in decision-making both here and in the UNC Faculty Assembly. Much of this transformation occurred while our current chancellor, John Thomas, was Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and it benefitted from his understanding and assistance as an ex-officio member of the Faculty Senate. As a member of the UNC Faculty Assembly I was amazed to learn of the restrictive atmosphere on a number of other campuses regarding faculty governance opportunities. My resolutions calling for the use of roll call votes, as we do here on the ASU Faculty Senate, were routinely voted down by faculty who dared not let their opinions be revealed to the home campus administration. These perceptions of restrictive decision­ making styles were reinforced by testimony received by committees dealing with expansion of faculty governance across the UNC system. As a career long member of the AAUP I have also heard firsthand testimony from faculty at a number of private colleges in the state where faculty input is little used or encour­ aged. Some of the testimony was given at semi-annual state conference meetings. Others were given to me personally during campus visits as a representative of the state conference inquiring into specific needs. Compared to all the other public and private post-secondary institutions in North Carolina, ASU is second to none and the envy of many in providing opportunities for faculty governance. In the past fifteen years there have been several revisions of senate organization and procedure, of faculty involvement in personnel decisions, and of due process rules. As we now stand, I know of no national standard of the AAUP which ASU does not meet or exceed. While these changes were underway there was a marked decline in perceived need by ASU faculty for external standard review of administrative decision-making style. The evidence for this is the steady decline in AAUP membership from over 100 in the late 1960's to 10 in 1992. Those of us at ASU still paying AAUP dues do so mostly as an academic duty to assist others less fortunate than ourselves and to give support to national standards when hard economic times prompt undisciplined retrenchment and calls to abolish tenure as has already happened at a number of institutions. The fact that appropriate decision making procedures are in place does not guarantee any particular final decision result. All campus decision groups are recommending bodies to the Chancellor and Board of Trustees. The final decisions made at the lop levels will not always be agreeable to a majority of faculty or students. Mistakes have been and will be made. But by and large the most decisions at ASU have been acceptable even if they were not in perfect agreement with resolutions passed by recommending bodies. Decisions that are objectionable have been freely challenged in a variety of campus forums and publications at ASU, including the "Faculty Voice" at university expense. 1 happen to agree with those who would not want a new Student Activities Center to have priority over academic needs. As the politically aware understand, however, there were and are appropriate ways to challenge a political decision without falsely painting the chancellor as a villain. Opportunities at ASU to participate in the decision process and to freely raise prolonged objection to decisions made belie the assertions said and printed that Chancellor John Thomas is Machiavelian, authoritarian, autocratic or a dictator. I have worked under an academic dictator. I have heard testimony about dictators. I have witnessed the damage dictators can do I have opposed and defied dictators. I know the national standards used to judge dictatorial behavioT. John Thomas is not a dictator. Dr. Thomas does not need my statements about his record while at ASU. But I think the record needs a comparative review before we lurch too far afield in our expectations as we go about selecting a new chancellor. We could very easily do a lot worse, and we are unlikely to do any better. The standards of faculty governance were well respected during the Chancellor­ ship of Dr. Thomas. We will all be grateful if his successor does as well. Dr. Roland F. Moy . Political Science Dep. The headline, AppalCART extends schedule," for the Nov 17 editorial implied th; the proposed plan has been implemented.

THE APPALACHIAN FAIRNESS, ACCURACY AND PUBLIC SERVICE SINCE 1934 67 NO. 21 APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, Boone, NC 28608 Tuesday, November 17,1992 tudents shocked usamullikin ipalschian Editor-in-chief Coffey Hall residents who simultaously touch the stove and a grounded , such as the adjacent water faucet, ght receive an electrical shock. Resi­ ts have been complaining for years, nothing has been done so far. The tics vary in intensity from sensations nging from mild tingling to severe jolts. Heather Hambrick has lived in Coffey Bidence Hall for three years and for the three years has complained to unifsity authorities that a potentially dansous situation exists. Hambrick, Coffey Resident Student tsociation President, said that she has [eived electrical shocks whenever she iches her sink and her electric range. "We put in a repair request one time, _ t nothing was ever done about it," unbrick said. "It has happened to my animates, too." | stoves are not properly grounded If the lean produce an injurous or life-threat- ening shock, according to Gene Howell, an ASU technology instructor. Howell said it would be a rare situation for the shock to be lethal, but it is a distinct possibility. 1 measured voltages between thestove and the water pipes in seven rooms," said electronics student and Coffey Hall resident Brian Winkler. "If everything was working correctly, the normal reading would have been zero volts. Only two of these seven rooms measured zero volts. In the other rooms I took measurements ranging from 1.8 to 57 volts. Fifty-seven voltscould have severe effects on the human body if someone were to touch that stove while they were wet." Hambrick is not the only student who has been shocked in her kitchen. Many other students have complained of being shocked when they were taking reason­ able preventative measures. "1 think all of them do it," said Coffey resident Ginny Ehasz. "The room I had last year was really bad." Director of Residence Facilities Doug Canipe said he did not remember a com­ plaint about the kitchens before, but his maintenance supervisor remembered a complaint from a few years ago. Neither of them remembered what might have been done to investigate and did not re­ member which room it was in. According toCanipe, preventivechecks are not done and the kitchens will only be checked on a complaint basis. Residence facilities will not check rooms in which residents have not complained about a problem. "If a student calls and complains I'll be happy to check it," said Canipe. "We'll try to correct it and if it can't be corrected, we'll shut it down." Stewart McLaughlin, director of me­ chanical engineeringof the physical plant said he had never hear of any complaints from Coffey residents. "If someone has complained, we'll cer­ tainly address it," McLaughlin said. "We'll get a work order and get it fixed. That is if there is a problem."

Homeless Week observed Special to the Appalachian Active Students for the Community (ACT) is sponsoring activities through­ out the week to draw attention to National Hunger and Homelessness Week. "We are trying to raise awareness"said Karen Lawrence, ACT member and one of the organizers for the event.

Participants drew numbers to represent various coun­ tries. They were then given meals that would be served in the countries they picked. A 24- to 50- hour fast will begin today at 3:00 p.m. Participants raise money by Habitat for Humanity, the Hospitality House and the Hunger Coalition by re­ ceiving sponsors. Students are given a nickel or dime per hour guideline for sponsors. Interested person can obtain precautionary guidelines and sponsor sheets at the ACT office in room 113 of the Plemmons Student Union. Last year, the fast raised $1,500. ACT is also sponsoring a Sleep Out on Sanford Mall Wednesday night. For the last two years 15 to 25 persons have attended the sleep out. ACT has always encouraged persons to join the activities of ACT in its community service but this is the first event that is university-wide and promises to draw a large crowd ac­ cording to event organizers. Participants for the sleep out are asked to meet on Sanford Mall at 5:30 p.m. rain, shine or snow and to bring a sleeping bag and dress warmly according to the weather. An informal program will begin at 7:30 p.m. Booths will be set up outside the cafeteriafor moreinformation about Watauga County homeless and worldwide chari­ ties.

Kappa Sigma must present three awareness pro­ grams in the spring. One of the programs will be open to all greeks. Privileges for the fraternity have been reduced. Kappa Sigma is allowed one alcoholic and one non-alcoholic function in spring 1993 and two alcoholic and one non-alcoholic so­ cial function in fall 1993. The chapter will lose rush privileges for the spring and fall of 1993. If the fraternity has a satisfactory recruitment program. IFC advisor Jim Street can approve rush for fall 1993. Kappa Sigma appealed the ruling on concerns of restrictions on accepting new members. There was no substantive due process violation and/or excessive pen­ alty/sanction in the IFC hearing that would warrant an appeal, according to DiBernardi. In addition to the IFC sanctions. Kappa Sigma was placed under an alumni board of control by its national headquarters. The alumni board has set educational and disciplinary goals for the chapter. Kappa Sigma is required to work with women's studies and the counseling center, raise academic standards, and have a written program for pledges. Also, an alumni will be present at all Kappa Sigma activities. "I hope that Kappa Sigma will learn from this experience and become a belter chapter as a result," stated DiBernardi in his letter to the chapter. "The challenge is yours and one I am confident that the chapter has the ability to address."

"In reviewing the minutes of the judi­ cial proceeding, your appeal and the letter of explanation received from the chair of the judicial board, I cannot find any justi­ fication for overruling, changingor modi­ fying the board's decision," stated Dino DiBernardi, director of the center for stu­ dent involvement and leadership, in a letter to the Kappa Sigma chapter.

Angel Tree event will begin this Thursday. The An­ gel Tree will be in the West Wing of the Welbom Cafeteria through Nov. 25. Paper ornaments with names of chil­ dren and senior citizeas will hang on the tree. Students, faculty and staff are asked to sponsor a child or senior citizen by picking an ornament and buying that per­ son a holiday gift. Once a name is picked, the sponsor should bring the omamentby the A.P.P.S. office. The office can tell the sponsor what the person needs or wants as a gift and relevant sizes and measurements of the person.The office will also keep track of who has been picked and who volun­ teered to sponsor a name. A.P.P.S. is not limiting sponsors just children or senior citizens. The program will send letters to campus clubs and organizations asking them to sponsor whole families. "We hope people will accept wholefamilies," said SusanOdom, A P P S. Print Public Relations." Usually children and senior citizens go first and families are left" Whole families might be too much for a single sponsor so A.P.P.S. is targeting clubs and organiza­ tions, said Odom. Names for the Angel Tree are provided by Boone Social Services and are from the Boonearea. A.P.P.S. hopes tosponsor 75 names before the season is over. The tree will start with 30 names. As names are picked, other names will be filled in. Odom stressed that the event is getting a latestart. Mostorganizationsdoing simi­ lar events have until Christmas. Because the semester will be ending in midDecember, A.P.P.S. must have an earlier deadline. Nov. 25 is the last day presents will be taken by A.P.P.S. Families and individuals that are spon­ sored will receive a letter by the A.P.P.S. office. On Wednesday, Dec. 2 and Thurs­ day, Dec. 3, the families or individuals bring the letter to Broyhill Inn and Con­ ference Center to pick up the gifts. Santa Claus will be there to entertain the chil­ dren while the parents and A.P.P.S. vol­ unteers load the presents.

SGA to hear proposal Committee will submit dead week policy By DAWN MCGUIRE Appalachian Staff Writer The Student Affairs Committee pre­ sented a dead week policy to the Student Government AssociationSenate last night . The resolution calls for an academic and social dead week the last week of the semester before reading day. No tests could be given during that week unless it was the final exam for a class. Also no projects could be due. The policy also includes a social dead week, in which university sponsored ac­ tivities, such as movies and dances, could not be held. "The idea behind dead week is to give students more time toprepare for exams," said Tom Beaman, chairman of the aca­ demic affairs committee. The bill stresses the use of the final exam period even if the final exam has already been given. The bill states that the time could be used to review the class or hold a class meet­ ing. Surveys taken by the committee show overwhelming student support for the policy. Faculty reaction, however, has been mixed. Angel "I've got some reservations, but I'm basically for it," said Bettie Bond, assis­ tant professor of history. " There are still some details I think need to be worked out" In a memo to Beaman, Dr. Terry Cole, chairperson of thecouncil of chairs, voiced several faculty concerns made during a September meeting of the council. "In sum, the chairs present would strongly oppose any policy that would deny a professor the right to make final projects, papers, reports, speeches, pre­ sentations, ect. due during the final week of the semester,"Cole states in the memo. If the policy is passed, it will have to go through Faculty Senate for approval.Then the bill would have to pass the academic policy and procedures committee. If en­ acted, the policy will take effect next fall. In Oct. of 1985, SGA passed a resolu­ tion stating that professors could not as­ sign a test or project not included on the syllabus during the week before reading day. However, students have found that they still do not have sufficient time to prepare for final exams. "One day is not nearly enough time to study for final exams. Dead week is a good idea, because you want all that time to study," said sophomore Chris Carr.

Students Continued from page 1 A person will be shocked when there is a difference in voltage between himself and whatever he touches. When an appli­ ance is not grounded properly or there is a problem with the equipment, the volts produced from the appliance will travel through a human body if the person touches the appliance and something that is grounded. There are two possibilities for reasons for this problem, according to Howell. There could be a fault inside the equip­ Two Plays in the famous London Theater District. ment or a problem with the building's circuit ground. Under normal conditions this is not a problem because the appli­ ance would be grounded and in most kitchens the sink and oven are not in a position where a person can touch both at the same time. "Most major appliances should definitely be grounded," Howell said. "It is a concern if you are measuring 57 volts. How dangerous the shock is depends on how much current passes through the body and where it passes through. A strong currentcan interfere with thenatural elec­ trical signals a body produces to regulate a heart beat and the diaphragm. If a person is wet or barefoot standing on conductive surfaces, the bodies natu­ ral resistance to the current decreases. For example, if a person is hot and sweaty, he or she will get much more of a shock than if he or she were dry. Students should report any electrical appliance that produces electrical shocks. If the appliance is in a residence hall a repair request form should be filled out and sent to Residence Life. COST: $2495.00 Applications available in the College of Business Dean's Office.

We to direct our focus around our own little world full of friends, social functions, and classes. Granted, not everyone is this i, but most of us can admit that we have a ard lime finding time to sit and watch the news read the newspaper as much as we should. Let's imagine for a moment that we are not on lis campus. Let's imagine having no dorm jom to sleep in (although we may hate it) and iving no meal card to take care of our eating rpenses. Imagine sleeping in an alley undereath a wet cardboard box, and never knowing rho may harass you or steal what little belong ;s you own while you sleep. A trash can holds your meals, which consists leftovers, and maybe you find a blanket or a arm hat to wear since you are wet and freezing in a while you may visit the soup kitchen, here you are served a nutritious meal; however, lines are so long and you are so hungry that 's unenjoyable. You keep warm in doorways, by a fire built with old trash in that alley. No arm showers are in this picture, no soap, and 10 shampoo. The idea of television or a radio existing is foreign, for you have too many other immediate problems to deal with. Okay, now put yourself back on campus. Back in your warm dorm room, or in the Food Court grabbing a bite to eat with some close Wends. As you hand over your meal card to pay for your food, you probably don't even pause king enough to think about what you would do if you couldn't afford to eat anything at all. The scenario I created above is extremly unpleasant; however, it is a way of life for more *ople in this world than we realize. There are men, women and children in this world with freams and aspirations just like ours, but they ""e no home to live in, no real family for ®Pport, and no good meals to eat. They are part of the homeless population that itinues to grow, not only in this country, but 'others as well. There are food shortages in *°nd and third world countries and they eat "ngs that we cannot imagine, just merely to five.

It was a time for some to reminisce about the past, and it was a time for others just to enjoy good music. Broome-Kirk Gym packed people in, both students and guests, for the eagerly awaited performance of James Taylor. The crowd was diverse; it seemed as if quite a few parents and alumni had come into town for the event. Taylor walked quietly on stage around 8:45 to a standing ovation. He picked up his guitar and began to play, without acknowledging the shouts and hollars of the audience. The opening songs were off of his most recent album, "New Moon Shine," and although the audience enjoyed them, they were obviously not as familiar with them as some of his older, more popular songs. The audience was very responsive, at times the hollering was almost out of place, for Taylor gave a very relaxed, almost mellow performance. He made small comments into the microphone, which added humor to the performance. He introduced his band members and back-up singers halfway through the concert, and it was obvious that he See TAYLOR page 4 * 4 « #5 im Appalachian Photo by Kandy Reinink JAMES TAYLOR IN CONCERT: Singer James Taylor performed for crowds in AS U's varsity gym last Friday.

On Monday, November 16, a Hunger Banquet was held at 7 p.m. at the First Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. This banquet was held to show how the distribution of food between the first, second and third world countries differs and affects the citizens of these countries. Students were sectioned off into groups and were given labels as citizens of one of these coun­ tries. The first world people were given food that is common in the United States, such as hamburgers, vegetables and fruits. Second and third world people were given lesser amounts of food, food not comparable to the standards set in the U.S. This banquet was an effort to make students aware of the unfair distribution of food throughout different countries. ^ Another major activity will begin Tuesday at 3 p.m. This is the fast, which lasts from 24-50 hours, according to what the participant desires. Informa­ tion about the fast and sign-up sheets are available at the booth located in the cafeteria. The goal of the fast is to get people to sponsor the people involved and to raise money. The participants will be wearing green ribbons to show their activity. Last year's fast raised $1300. The money raised through the fast is donated ?o Habitat for Humanity, the local Hospitality House, and the Hunger Coalition. These organiza­ tions all help with hunger and homelessness within the community. Any canned goods and clothes donated at the booth are given to Ram's Rack thrift store and hungry families for Thanksgiving. On Wednesday, November 18, a sleepout will be held on Sanford Mall, and all are welcome to participate. It will begin at 5:30 p.m. and at 7:30 p.m. there will be an informal program, probably with a speaker. Everyone is asked to bring a sleeping bag to get the full effect of having no shelter. According to Kelly Griggs, the co-president of ASC, the main goal of the week is to create aware­ ness of the problems in the world today. It is the main project of the club for the fall semester, and a Hunger and Homelessness month will follow in March. Many organizations around campus have been asked to participate, and all individual stu­ dents are strongly encouraged to take part.

This is one band that is world renowned for putting on thegreatest live shows and this particular Friday was no exception. Although the show was not sold out, the people there defi­ nitely got their money's worth. The show was arousing mix of classic Kiss tunes with newer songs to boot. The show started off with the song "Creatures of the Night," which they have not played since the Animalize tour in 1984, which they followed almost immediately with the classic song "Deuce,"off of their self-titled album"Kiss." Next, they played "I Just Wanna" and "Unholy," off of their most recent release, "Revenge." To digress for a moment, this new album is the best album that they have released in the last ten years. It is by far the heaviest album they have done for awhile, which is thankful to the production work by Bob Ezrin, the same guy who produced the classic album "Destroyer." Not to mention the fact that GeneSimmons, bassist and founding member, has said in many interviews that they had strayed form their roots, and felt that it was time to record and album that was as heavy as their old albums. Now, back to the concert. They proceeded to play "Parasite,"a song I have never heard live, and must say that it was one of the highlights of the See KISS page 5 i Tuesday, Nov. 17 Rosen Concert Hall - "Native Americans and Hispanics," L.W.

After receiving a master's degree in communication disorders and a basic cer­ tification, students may get jobs in a varietyof areas. Jobs may befound inschools, hospitals, rehabilitation centers or a pri­ vate practice may be set up. "There's a lot of flexibility in this area," Michael said. "There's a shortage across the country of people in communication disorders, so there's a demand for people in these professions." Michael has been the director of the clinic since this past summer. She had spent some time at Memphis State Uni­ versity, but has been "in and out" of ASU's communications program. In the future, Michael hopes the pro­ gram will become more family based, "centered around the family as well as the individual " She also hopes that "the community and the students here will be more aware of the services we provide." Taylor Continued from page 3 had a great deal of respect for their musi­ cal talents. Taylor had three female back-up sing­ ers and a male back-up singer, who added a lot to the show. The male singer was especially popular with the audi­ ence, and his voice was very strong in supporting Taylor's lyrics. Right before intermission, Taylor played "Fire and Rain," which is an older song, off of his greatest hits album. The audience sang along with Taylor through­ out the song. The intermission lasted probably fif­ teen minutes, and the lines were so large at theconcession stands and therestrooms that it was frustrating. The gym was also very warm, and most of the audience was dressed in sweaters, due to the cold weather outside. Taylor was refreshed when he came back after intermission and played more upbeat songs. This got the audience clapping their hands and swaying to the music. "Steamroller" was a song that Taylor performed with a lot of energy, for it was requested by the audience. Taylor tried to fulfill the requests he received from audience members throughout the evening. It was obvious that Taylor thought very highly of his guitarist, for he re­ ferred to him as "the world's greatest guitarist" during introductions, and he gave him the opportunity to perform a few solos throughout the concert. Taylor gave off a friendly air to the audience, and he seems like a very laidback performer who really enjoys his music. Being a North Carolina native, Tay­ lor saved "Carolina in my Mind" for last, and got a great response from the audience. He performed this song slower than usual, but it still had all of the elements that made it a hit years ago. The audiencegave Taylor a standing ovation, and he came back out to play "You've Got a Friend," another song from his greatest hits. People put their arms around each other and sang the words with a lot of emotion. It was a great ending to a two and a half-hour show. Taylor's voice was strong through­ out the entire show. He performed the majority of his most popular songs, along with some recent ones off of his latest album. The audience was very responsive, almost too much at times, but it was obvious they all enjoyed the show.

The laser and light show was by far the best Kiss has ever put on, and gave any other laser light show a run for its money. Another impressive facet of the show was the sound system. Of course, since Kiss has been touring for as long as they have, they are going to have the best sound crew, but their sound was incred­ ibly clear for the volume they were pushing. It was very rare to not be able to understand what they were saying, which is always a bonus for those people that may not know the words to the songs. As for the audience, even though it was not sold out, the crowd was still worked up about the show. There is always a certain camaraderiefor the Kiss Army, as they refer to themselves, and no matter how many times they have seen Kiss live, it always feels like the first time. This was my seventh time seeing them in con­ cert, and I was just as excited as 1 was my first time. That is the charm of a Kiss show because the crowd never knows what to expect. Even if Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons were to forget the words to all of the songs, the crowd could sing the words for them because they would already be singing along anyway. This tour has held special meaning to the crowd and the band because this is the Thursday Nov. 19 For those of you Kiss fans from the seventies that gave up on Kiss when they look off their make-up, you do not realize what you are missing by seeing them live now. Granted, the guys are getting old and their popularity is waning, but if you want to see the greatest concert that you will ever see, then you need to check out Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Bruce Kulick and Eric Singer live because they live up to those famous words, "You wanted the best, you got the best.

Carr's death was greatly overshadowed by the death of Freddie Mercury, vocalist for Queen, because Carr died the day after Mercury. Carr had joined Kiss in 1980 on the lesser known album "The Elder,"replacing original drummer Peter Criss. Carr was the drummer for Kiss longer than Criss, so he held more mean­ ing to the band and the fans. This concert was a veritable test for Singer, and he passed with flying colors with his har­ monica solo, which he then followed with a ripping drum solo. He definitely adds a new touch to this veteran band. 3 z MINISTRY YHHOULII WUSIC" (71 STAGE SHOW PRODUCTION 264-6830 HWY- 105 EXTENSION VzWAY BTWN 421 & 321 SENIOR WEEK Tfianksgivin MeaC November 1992 NOVEMBER 18, 199Z FresH Roasted Turkey Breast 'koiee of Vegetable •nbread Dressing tetGravy ierry ReCisfi Roll Presented by Appalachian Food Services Macados - 5% off food Pepper's - 10% off South's - 10% off non-sale items Sports in General - 25% off everything except Oakley Sunglasses Sub Shoppe -10% off food Tumbleweed Grille - 10% off food Twiggs - 10% off food MONDAY 16 MACADO'S - S2.50 pitchers LOS ARCOS - $3.00 pitchers HIGH COUNTRY INN - $25 for Double (2people) - SI off any entree/2 for 1 entry to Laugh Tracks SENIOR T-SHIRT SALES ('92 & '93) - front of cafeteria THURSDAY 19 SOLLECITO'S - SI.00 Buckets - S3.00 Band - Derek Trucks - ($2 off) HIGH COUNTRY INN - Same room,meal & comedy special APPS - "Cry Freedom" 7pm & 9pm Seniors Free (Pub) APPS - Christian Band "Matt Tyler" SI off (Pub) "DONT FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID*** DON'T FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID Only $2.95 AVAILABLE AT: Cafeteria, Food Court & Park Place Cafe Appalachian Acessories -10% off The Coffee Cottage - 10% off Duck Head Outlet - 10% off non-sale items Eckerd's - 10% off school supplies & Eckerd brand Farmer's Ski Shop - 10% discount 1st Tracks - 15% off sugg. retail price on ski coats 1st Tracks Ski Team - 20% off ski tune-ups GNC - Free Gift w/ Senior ID Haircut 101 - 10% off His Image - 10% discount K-Mart Eatery Express Hamburger Combo - $2.50; Hotdog Combo - SI.50; Free Popcorn w/Icec; Dozen Gourmet Cookies - S2.50; Small Nachos - $.75 Los Arcos - 5% off food WEDNESDAY, J WEEK-LONG DISCOUNTS AT THE FOLLOWING WITH YOUR SENIOR ID TUESDAY 17 SAVANNAH JOE'S - $1.50/hr/person for Pool -S3.50 pitchers LOS ARCOS - $3.00 pitchers HIGH COUNTRY INN - Same room, meal & comedy special SENIOR T-SHIRT SALES ('92 & 93) - in front of cafeteria ***DONT FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID*** laduw n FOOD SERVICES WEDNESDAY 18 FRIDAY 20 WAREHOUSE - 10% off 6-pack Bud -10% off 12-pack Miller Lite -10% off 6-pack Warsteiner Import *** »*» DON'T FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID SATURDAY 21 Appalachian vs. Western Carolina football game LOS ARCOS - $3.00 pitchers APPS - DJ Dance at Legends - Seniors Free HIGH COUNTRY INN - Same room, meal & comedy APPS "Flat Duo Jets' - Si adv/S2 door (Pub) special Senior Game Ball Raffle (Announced at gamei SENIOR T-SHIRT SALES ('92 & '93) - in front SENIOR T-SHIRT SALES (92 & 93) Stadium of cafeteria before game EVERYONE WEAR YOUR SENIOR T-SHIRTS TODAY *** *** ***DONT FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID*** DON'T FORGET TO SHOW YOUR SENIOR ID �1L The Appalachian.

"I am especially proud of them for winning it undefeated." Sandra Love led the way for the Lady Apps with 17 kills and 13 digs in the clincher with a .480 hitting percentage. Rachel Wade hit.400with lOkills. Deanna Keen and Kim Nelson folio wed with nine kills each. Joanne Myers, who leads the league in assists added an amazing 47 against Davidson. Joanne is the most underrated player in the league right now," said Markland. "We have four people hilling over .200 right now, so that tells me that she is picking the right hitters at the right times." Markland also credits his seniors for the success of this year's team. We have been led by our seniors throughout," said Markland. "We have been able to pick up each other's slack when someone is not having a good match and our confidence has grown." The Mounaineers continued its win­ ning streak by defeating rival East Ten nessee Stale University in Johnson City last Friday 15-3, 15-12, 15-11. Holly Shamburger had a solid perfor­ mance for the Apps by hitting at a .417 percent clip. "Holly had a great game," said Markland. Kim Nelson led the way with 13 kills and Sandra Love had 15 digs. Markland voiced Ms confidence in the team not to let down after securing first place. "1 wasn't afraid of a letdown," said Markland. The girls see them (the Lady Bucs) as a rival and that excitement al­ lowed us to do the things necessary to win." The Lady Appsrounded out the regular season by outlasting Marshall on Sunday 7-15.15-13,15-8,15-6. "We were a little flat in this match," said Markland. "Marshall look the game to us early and we had the ability to make some plays when we needed them. Nelson played a key role in the Appa­ lachian victory with 17 kills. "Kim turned the match around and we were able to take control in the last two games," said Markland. The Southern Conference tournament begins on Friday with the Lady Apps as the number one seed. Markland feels thai his team has its work cut out for them in the tournament. "There is a lot of parity in the league this year," said Markland. "The lop four teams will be very tough and the lower teams have taken their matches to four and five games consistently." ASU will begin the tournament on Friday, Nov. 20. Southern Conference ASU whips 1-AA 17th-ranked N.C. A&T, 42-6 champ to be decided By KRISTOPHER FLOYD Appalachian Staff Writer Appalachian State kept playoff hopes alive this past weekend as they pounded the 1-AA 17th-ranked North Carolina A&T Aggies, 42-6 in front of 12,687 at Kidd Brewer Stadium. "What was important to us was to have an authoritive win in order to help our chances for the playoffs," ASU Head Coach Jerty Moore said. "Playing well against a ranked team is the way to base a playoff berth." "In order to impress the people that do the polls, I think that we needed an im­ pressive win. That is the 17th-ranked team we just defeated and we defeated them handily," ASU tackle Avery Hall said. The Mountaineers improved to6-4 with the win while the Aggies fell to 8-2. The game opened with the Mountain­ eers driving 81 yards in ten plays to take a 6-0 lead on a two-yard run by Johnny Smith. Jay Millson's kick was good to put ASU up 7-0. After an Aggie punt, the Mountaineers look over at their own 39 and six plays later, D.J. Campbell connected with An­ thony Smith for a 21 -yard touchdown and Millson's point was good to put the Apps ahead, 14-0. The next score came as Campbell made an amazing pitchout to Johnny Smith over an Aggie defender for a score on a 3yard run. Millson's extra point made it 21-0. State falls to 2-3 in the conference and 54 overall for sixth place. Appalachian State picked up a key win over North Carolina A&T, 42-6. Johnny Smith led the Mountaineers with two touchdowns.

By STACY BRANCH Appalachian Staff Writer The half ended as the Aggies got into ASU territory for the first time. James White ran the ball for North Carolina A&T for 37 yards to the ASU 3-yard line before Larry King scored on a 1 -yard run to put the Aggies on the board, 21-6. The extTa point failed. After the Mountaineers received the ball first to start the second half, they went 61 yards to score on a 21 yard pass from Campbell to Chip Hooks, to cushion their lead to 28-6. Another big play came when the Apps punted and recovered a fumble at the Aggie 26-yard line. Three plays later, Campbell connected with Craig Styron for a 15-yard touchdown pass. Millson's kick made it 35-6. Reserve quarterback Andy Arnold re­ placed Campbell late in the third quarter to carry the Mountaineers to their final scoring dri vc from their own 42-yard line. Arnold capitalized on a touchdown early in the fourth quarter with a 12-yard quar­ terback draw for the Apps final score, 426. "They (ASU) are a good team, maybe event the best I have seen since I have been at A&T. I regret having to play them this late in the season with so much on the line," A&T Head Coach Bill Hayes said. Campbell completed 8 of 15 passes for 150 yards on the day while Hooks and Arnold combined to total 148 in rushing. The Mountaineers totalled 416 yards to the Aggies' 147, including a mere 28 in rushing. "I expected a tougher time. I saw them practice a little while and I thought they ran extremely well and they were a little bigger than I had thought. Yes, I thought it would be a tougher ball game," Moore said.

The Mountaineers will battle for the Old Mountain Jug this weekend as they host Western Carolina. The Catamounts are currently tied for first in the league at 5-1. If the Mountaineers are able to win over Western Carolina and if Furman beats The Citadel, the Apps would wind up in a five way tie for the league crown. This position would give the Mountain­ eers a shot at the SC's automatic playoff berth. Appalachian State must win over the Catamounts if the squad is to be consid­ ered for an at-large berth (assuming that The Citadel beats Furman). The selection process for these teams is entirely up to members of the 1-AA polls. "I think that if we beat Western, we should be in the playoffs because of the tough schedule we have played. We have one of the toughest schedules in 1-AA football," Campbell said. Q. Toj&SL HIGHWAY 105 SOUTH ACROSS FROM THE WATERWHEEL AT HIGH COUNTRY INN CAROL GRAY FEATURING BREADS, ROLLS.

A plan was introduced to SGA to extend the AppalCART route to run in Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. This would give people who want to lrink a safe way home and also provide a safe way home for people who would | itherwise have to walk alone at night. A few years ago, Appalachian sponsored a service called "Tipsy Taxi" to I ransport students home after they became inebriated. The service was disconjinued since not enough people used it. Since the AppalCART is already a amiliarmode of transportation to students, they would be more likely to use t lis program. This plan has great potential. However, before we make a large investment n its implementation, some problems need to be considered. To begin with, it ( will cost money to operate the additional hours. If the funds are not available in the current budget, AppalCART should consider charging all riders to use the service. Most people would not mind paying a little bit of money to ensure a safe trip home. Asecond problem that will need to be addressed isthe number of AppalCARTs needed. One or two will probably not be sufficient to transport people from all of the locations where alcohol is served to back home. The AppalCARTs will also need to run lateronthe weekend nights than itdoesduring the week. People lb not normally begin their voyage home until at least after midnight, so the AppalCART will need to run later than 12. If the program is going to work, it needs to be done right. In order for people J oalways think to use the system, it needs to be convenient to use.This program great potential to lessen the number of drunk drivers on the road and people ng alone at night. With a little planning, this could be one of the best s Appalachian has started in years.

Isn't this exactly what they have been doing to roles. men from the time we started having wars? Do they think I truly feel sorry for the people who wish to serve that women are just too weak? I stand in firm opposition this country to the best of their ability, but are told to this belief. instead that they must only serve tea. Why? Because Military leaders have also issued their concerns for they were born without the genitalia of a man. This the safety of men when women are on the battlefield. should not be a gender issue. A presidential commission investigating the feasibility of allowing increased combat involvement for women in the military has just completed its seven month, $4 million study of the current restrictions placed on women in the military. The current restrictions mandate that although women may be assigned to combat-support activities, they may not actually be assigned to combat duties. The committee reaffirmed the restriction. Thus, women in the military may not fly fighter planes responsible for engaging the enemy in aerial combat. Women may march in land units in order to set up or repair war camps, but they may not join the infantry to fire and be fired upon by war-time opponents. They may drive tanks in order to load them onto cargo planes or to test their performance after a repair, but they aren't allowed to drive tanks into enemy bases and fire missiles.

Being a new transfer student here, I have often relied upon The Appalachian to provide me with accurate information. This particular column, however, was one of the most unprofessional and inaccurate pieces I have ever read. AIDS is a matter of life and death. AIDS testing is not a game to be made fun of by "silly" armband ideas. The purpose of the mandatory AIDS testing would not be to deny acceptance based on a positive result, but rather to inform the incoming freshmen of their situation. The AIDS tests would be performed after the student was accepted to Appalachian. I suggest Mr. Winkler check his facts before he starts condemning and ridiculing an issue he knows nothing about, thus printing his ignorance to his readers. If someone is HIV positive and doesn't realize it, the situation can become very deadly. An individual who doesn't know they are infected can unintentionally pass the virus on to others. The mandatory AIDS tests would be an attempt to prevent this kind of disaster. Hopefully, once a student is aware that they are HIV positive, they will take actions to prevent the passing of the virus to someone else. The mandatory testing proposal is not an attempt to discriminate against AIDS victims; it is an attempt to save the people who test negative for HIV from becoming victims as well. Susan D. Del Sarto Box 09728 Avoiding the draft: Cowardice or conviction To the Editor: In response to Adam Hatch's column on Bill Clinton ("Don't be fooled, you will be sorry," Nov. 10),, in which he called the president-elect a coward for not going to Vietnam, I would like to defend Clinton and any other man who chose not to go fight a stupid, senseless war, whatever their reasons may have been. I am not supporting anyone who acted dishonestly in order to avoid the draft. Yes, all citizens have a moral obligation of serve their country, and even those who don't agree with a particular war should not do something dishonest to get out of fighting in it I don't know how Clinton avoided being drafted. But not everyone who didn't go to Vietnam is a coward. My father is one of the greatest men I know. He taught me to love God and to love other people, and he taught me right from wrong. Killing innocent people is wrong. Sending thousands of American boys to a slaughter in some foreign country just because our government doesn't like their govern­ ment is wrong. ( When my father graduated from college in 1971, his draft number was 29. A draft number that low meant he could go ahead and pack his bags — he was going to Southeast Asia. My father is a strong Christian and could never bring himself to kill anyone. He felt that he could better serve his country by saving people rather than by killing. He entered Officer Candidate School in February 1972 and served honorably in the Coast Guard from 1972 to 1975. The other part of this story is that my father had just gotten married in the spring of 1971, just before he gradu­ ated, and I was bom the next winter. When the Vietnam War was over, my father was still here, and has been here for me for the past 20 years. My heart goes out to those whose fathers, brothers, husbands and boyfriends went to Vietnam and never made it back. I am grateful to God that my father chose to serve his country here in the United States rather than in Vietnam. My father is no coward. He is brave enough to stand up for what he believes is right. Tracy Tarleton Box 12839 Cyclists, beware to reduce drunk driving lAjarv-VC-fi+o ViS•4" 'jrti *>1 oo few s'Hl ». rt qi On Sept. 23, at 4:50 p.m., Aaron Thomas, a student at ASU on his way from classes, was detained by Officer Wilson (#221) of the Boone Police for failing to stop at a stop sign. Aaron was riding a bicycle, and no traffic was in sight in either direction. At the court hearing, Aaron was ordered to pay $60 in court costs and a $15 fine (which was not indicated on the citation), which led us to believe that he had to appear in court. Had he known the amount of the fine, he would have mailed that amount and saved court costs and the court's time. This citation indicated no breach of conduct, which the officer added at the time of the hearing. We have not found anyone who has ever heard of a fine given to cyclists and certainly not in the amount of $75! The image of the police in general, the Boone police in particular, has not been enhanced by this incident. Surely the Boone Police have more important or criminal matters to engage in. Surely taxpayers would be better served by efforts against burglary, robbery, rape and murder. Or do these crimes not exist in Boone? Are we to understand that the police have the community's support to harass students on their way to and from their classes? May we have the response of the Boone Police? Robert E. Thomas C.

"I'm sure Kappa Sigma did not purposely mean to degrade anyone, but they were walking a fine line with their actions." "I agree with the actions the Alpha Phi sorority took. I would hope that any soror­ ity would have done the same thing if it had been them," said Shannon Fox, ASU student and Chi Omega member. Afterreceiving the complaint, IFC sus­ pended all Kappa Sigma activies until a hearing could be conducted. The IFC judicial board heard the case a week ago Monday and found Kappa Sigma guilty on all charges.The various fraternity presi­ dents, who compose the judicial council, deliberated sanctions for the charges. Because the case is under appeal, Dino DiBemardi, director of student involvment and leadership, declined to specify on the sanctions. The sanctions do include dis­ cipline and education, said DiBemardi. "We (IFC) don't want to just punish a group and make it difficult for the chapter to survive," said Street. "We want to help the chapter change." Some sorority members were con­ cerned about an all-male council hearing a case involving sexual harassment. Since the complaint was brought against a fra­ ternity, IFC was the ruling body, ex­ plained Street. The procedures for IFC judicial hearings include a board of the fraternity presidents.

Former directorof student publications Mary Ann Sabo also took part in the draft of the handbook. Three publications have been combined into one for this book. Those three com­ ponent books were the Leadership Hand­ book, the Mountaineer (Student Hand­ book), and the Residence Life Handbook. The new book also contains a statement of the new academic policy. New topics addressed in the current handbook are the use of university facili­ ties, campus security, alcohol policy and hazing. (CPS)- If President-elect BillClinton holds to his campaign promise, gay and lesbian college students will be able to enroll in ROTC programs and not be forced to hide their sexual orientation. Clinton has vowed to do away with Department of Defense policy that bars gays and lesbians from being in the mili­ tary. This practice also applies to Air Force, Army and Navy ROTC units on college and university campuses. "I have to believehim," said NealSnow, a University of Maine senior who was recently dismissed when he told Air Force ROTC officials he is gay. "If Clinton had said it just once, I would have questioned it, but he said it many times." President Bush, before and during the campaign, said he would maintain cur­ rent policy, which states, in part, that "homosexuality is incompatible with mili­ ASU discontinues laundry service By JOHN HEISEL Appalachian Staff Writer and ADAM HATCH Assistant News Editor grapplers Pare for coming season u ^Bitten tar v believe in Won? tary service. The presence of such mem bers adversely affects the ability of the Armed Forces to maintain discipline, good order, and morale." The current policy is likely to remain intact until Clinton alters it by executive order. The next step is up to the new administration. The military's ban on gays and lesbi­ ans oftenconflicts with universities' equal opportunity policies regarding race, reli­ gion, sexual preference and other factors. "The armed forces now exist as the only sector in which this discrimination exists. The armed forces remain the only holdout," said Robert O'Neil, a law pro­ fessor at the University of Virginia. "It doesn't make sense. It has remained in­ tractable, but with a Clinton victory it may become moot." "We've never had a problem. I don't think we will [in the future]," said Ll. Col. John Marsh, ASU ROTC. "We respect their [gays and lesbians] rights of sexual preference." Anyone is welcome to join freshmen and sophomore level classes and clubs associated with ROTC, said Marsh. Jun-, lor and senior level students actually sign contracts with the government, then RQTC must abide by the Department of Defense regulations, explained Marsh There have been movements at schools nationwide to get rid of ROTC units be­ cause of the gay and lesbian policy. When Snow was dismissed from the Air Force ROTC unit, the University of Maine Faculty Senate voted to support Snow's right to remain in the ROTC pro­ gram. The school also wants the armed forces to alter its policies regarding people with physical limitations who are not al­ lowed in the military. "We have a strong policy of non-dis­ crimination at the university, and Depart­ ment of Defense policy is in clear con­ flict," said University of Maine spokes­ man John Diamond. "Wc arc actively lobbying to change policy that affects ROTC programs." Snow was the fourth-highest ranking cadet in the corps, a student senator and belongs to an honorary society for service to the school and academic achievement. "He is well-known and well-respected," Diamond said. "People respect the fact he's had the courage to come forward." Snow said this fall he had to sign some paperwork vowing he was a heterosexual and decided he couldn't lie about his sexuality. He told his training officerSept. 21 that he was gay, and disenrollment proceedings began that day. �The Appalachian. Thursday. November 12 199?

SGA seeks student representati «i By DAWN MCGUIRE Appalachian Staff Writer The Student Government Association Senate unanimously passed a resolution of support for student representation on faculty and administration search com­ mittees, at Tuesday's SGA meeting. The bill calls for students to be voting mem­ bers on the committees. "We want students to have input and a vote on the hiring of faculty and key administrative personnel," said Tom Beaman, chair of the Academic Affairs Committee. "This resolution does not apply to standing committees, such as the chancellor search committee." The resolution does not specify how committees should choose student repre­ sentatives. "There is no reason to set numbers for each department's committee. If a prob­ lem arises, we will deal with theissue at that time," said Beaman. The resolution includes a sunset clause which allows for review and changes af­ ter four semesters. The bill was passed with no objections. Off-campus senator Hunter Schofield told the senate that the student activities center (SAC) was back up for consider­ ation on the state bond referendum. The senate applauded Schofield's re­ marks that "Chancellor Thomas andcrew have started the blind sightless process again" and warned senate that " they're gonna get you if you don't watch out.' In other business, Chip Baggett, presidentof the Coordinating Council of Clubs spoke to senate about the goals of the council. "We are hoping to start an archives for clubs and organizations, which would hold records of the clubs' history," said Baggett. The council is also working on a news­ letter, a resource library and a speaker bank. Senate also voted to support the possi­ bility of including a multicultural history course in general college requirements.

Homeless students juggle classes, despair (CPS)- When John boards the bus af­ ter a long day of classes, he often falls asleep, not bothering to tell the driver to awaken him at the stopnear his home. It's not because he doesn't care about getting home; it's because he doesn't have one. John's situation is not an isolated case. Across the country, a growing number of college students are finding themselves in the ranks of the homeless, forced to juggle their dreams of success with the reality of survival. • "You have to go slow," said John, an auto mechanics student in his mid-30s at Santa Monica Community College in southern California. John, who holds a part-time job at college, doesn't want his real name used because he doesn't want people to know he's homeless. "Sometimes I sleep on the bus, taking the bus all the way into downtown L-is Angeles and come back in time for classes in the morning. Sometimes I live in a motel for a week when I get paid. Some­ times I live on the streets. Sometimes I stay with a friend if he has a car." Although there is no official number of homeless students in the United States, estimates of the total homeless popula­ tion range from a conservative figure of 500,000 to 3 000,000, according to advo­ cacy groups. •„ Even with such a large number of stu* dents needing so much, only a few col• leges have addressed theproblem directly. I One of the largest efforts has taken J place in Florida, where the state legisla" ture passed an amendment earlier this * year that exempts homeless students from • paying laboratory and instructional fees J-at state-supported community colleges J- and universities. While Hurricane Andrew added a sig­ nificant number of students to Florida's f homeless ranks, college officials said the new law and Florida's sunny climate had £ already attracted many homeless people £ who want to be students. "Our percentage of homeless is higher £ than the general population. We have > about 100 (homeless students) here," said £ George Young, vice president for student i affairs at Broward Community College, - which has about 50,000 students on three « campuses. j Efforts to help the homeless are also i taking place in Massachusetts. Last ' month, Suffolk University in Boston » awarded a homeless man with a four-year •; scholarship. Kevin Davis, 31, began J studying finance this fall under the priI vate university's annual Homeless Stu- have a wonderful opportunity to build a new future." Students are also pitching in to help other students. At Michigan State Uni­ versity in East Lansing, students have joined with a local philanthropist to open a food bank for students who may live off campus and who are having financial problems, including any homeless stu­ dents. To encourage participation, 20 percent discounts at the bookstore are being offered to donors, while recipients can receive food without having to prove their need. Despite these efforts to help homeless students stay in school, rising tuition, cost-of-living increases and continued low wages areforcing more students tochoose between attending classes and having a place to call home, For example, John is on his third ven­ ture as a homeless student since moving to California from New York. He became homeless each time because he could not afford to pay for housing. "I had found a two-bedroom apartment with a South African student. He rented me aroom for S280 and we split utilities," recalled John, who holds odd jobs and receives financial aid. "When the student finished the four years at UCLA, he was supposed to leave the country. I didn't have enough money to keep paying the rent." With only $400 a month in income from a part-time job and financial aid, John said he has just enough to pay for food and bills, such as storage for his belongings, a student bus pass and, ironi­ cally, a Visa credit card obtained at a student rate. The inability to pay for housing is so serious that some college officials are opening the. doors to their homes and offices to keep students in school. "The economy is stressing them," Young said. "I had a student body presi­ dent who slept in the student body office for a month because he couldn' t pay rent. We've let them take showers in the gym and sleep in the gym and the locker room. I've got people on my staff who will take people home with them." Some students decided they would rather go homesless than sacrifice a qual­ ity education. For some homeless people, however, college may be the last chanceof a normal life. "The two places I have lived, I found • dent Scholarship Program. • "I always wanted to go to college and tJirough school. In school, I found some kind of income," said John, who dreams of opening an auto shop one day. "If it weren't for school, I'd be on the street. I J now I can," Davis said in a statement. "I found people who cared." HOMELESS ON THE MALL: The annual sleep-out on the mall will mark homeless week ne»r week , „ , < Mall. nometess week next week. Last year, students and community marked the event on 5 Georgia fraternity suspended for racial slu (CPS)- A racial slur in a pledge pam­ phlet has resulted in a fraternity being suspended fvm the University of Geor­ gia campus for an indefinite period. University officials discovered that a printed pamphlet for Pi Kappa Phi frater­ nity contained the phrase "no niggers." An investigation revealed that some fra­ ternity members knew about the slur and chose to do nothing about it. More than 1,000 students signed a pe­ tition demanding that the fraternity be ousted from the campus. Thepetition was started by the university's chapter of the National Association for the Advance­ ment of Colored People. The suspension resulted from an Oct. 22 hearing in which the fraternity exer­ cised its option to have the case heard by an administrative officer rather than a student panel. The fraternity can apply for reinstate­ ment during the summer of 1993. "I intend the time during this suspen­ sion to be spent learning and teaching the value of diversity in a modern university and to satisfy the expectations announced by your national organizations and your local alumni," wrote William Bracewell, director of judicial programs who served as hearing officer on the case. Pi Kappa Phi president James "Tripp" Ackerman HI appeared at a recent meet­ ing with the Black Greek Council and read a statement of apology bv the pamphlet's author, and said the fraternity did not condone the material. "The offensive statement was not con­ doned by the chapter president or the brotherhood," Ackerman said. "I regret that this situation may have caused others to form negative opinions about the Lambda chapter, the Greek community or the University of Georgia community as a whole." The Greek organizations at C sity reacted strongly to the inn c cials said.

"It was very mature." The Panhellenic Council was not in­ volved in the case, but discussed the issue and is waiting for the outcome of the appeal. Some sororities have individu­ ally decided to cancel social activities with Kappa Sigma, explained Street. "The system works," said DiBernardi. "IFC addressed the complaint head-on as did the sorority and that's a real plus." "My gut feeling is this [sanctions] could make Kappa Sigma a strong chapter," said Street. "They're forced to be a stron­ ger chapter. This is a growth opportu­ nity." "They [Kappa Sigma] put the entire Greek system in the hot seat and from now on all fraternities will have to watch what they do to prevent any further inci­ dents," said Salvatore. Kappa Sigma will be working with Alpha Phi and the campus on programs dealing with sexual harassment, said Kappa Sigma President Eric Bassett.

Perhaps you are standing wide-eyed in front of your closet first thing in the morning wishing your mother still dressed you (then again, maybe not). This is certainly a bigger dilemma for those of us who live off campus. If you underdress, you can't skip back to your dorm room for that jacket. On the other hand, if you overdress you end up stripping in the bathroom of Rankin Science Building and carrying around two tons of clothing all day and resembling a pack mule. Perhaps you had a hard time deciding whether or not to come to Appalachian. Maybe you've been undecided about what to do after you graduate. You may be unsure as to whether or not the person you're dating is Mr./Mrs. Right or just a leech. If you voted last week, you had to decide who you thought would be the best president to run our country. In this world of uncertainty, each decision we make, whether it's to go to class unprepared with a good excuse, or to skip and come up with an even better excuse tnakes a difference on the rest of our life. Suppose you have the chance to move to New York and perhaps make it big as a writer. What will you do? How often I wish for a crystal ball to gaze into and see the best path to take. Decision making comes into play even in polite conversation. Surely you've have been in a situation where it's your turn to say something, •ndyou wonder, "Where's my script?" You don't want to say the wrong thing, but at the tame time you are unsure as to what the wrong thing is. One thing I had to deal with growing up was *hen making a decision, do I listen to rpy heart "nty head? There was always that third option if letting someone else tell you what to do. I cannot begin to count the times I have run to my father for advice. Yet, then I had to make the Vision as to whether or not to take the advice, 'hich has often made the problem more implicated than it already was. lis hard to know if the advice you are given is lid advice. Some say that if you plan to go to fJd school, take the GRE your junior year, hers say take it as a senior. When making visions that will affect the rest of your life, the essure only adds to your confusion as you Elgh every possible route to take. A good thing about my parents is that if I ske the wrong choice, after yelling me for "Me my father will ask me "what did you from this?" Lately when I mess up, even "h little things, I ask myself this: What have I ""ed from going to Appalachian, besides the JV|0Us answers of what I leam in class. I have "led what it is like to live two hours away °m Mme and not be able to run to Mom when Jjiething goes wrong. I have learned about • Mis, and more bills. After having my own im for eighteen years, I was forced to leam to e"to people I didn't know at all, and that •"Mimes you have no choice but to get along.

We have an obligation to FIELD TRIP: Eight honor students recently participated in a field trip to Battery Creek High School in Beaufort, S.C. Advisors attending were Cecelia Conway and Nicholas Biddle. Themes the students learned about included teenage pregnancy, apathy, and racism. For undergraduates at Appalachian State Uni­ versity a trip into the past, that is, back to high school, can reveal insights never pondered in the days gone by when once we roamed those hal­ lowed halls (with and without hall passes). Eight students and two professors participating in a General Honors course entitled "The Human Future" took that trip recently, and found the rev­ elations intriguing. Members of the group included Travis Howell, Dorotee Ingebord-Brantz, Jemy Isaacs, Geoff Raynor, Rick Rivera, Sherrita Rob­ erts, Rob Robertson, Maura Sheahan, Professor Cecelia Conway and Professor Nicholas Biddle. We traveled to Battery Creek High School in Beaufort, S.C. where we joined roughly 120 stu­ dents in a symposium on the challenges of the future. The format was informal. We, as older college students, presented ourselves as a panel leading open discussion with Battery Creek stu­ dents. Politics, jobs, education and civil rights were among the topics addressed. What does the future look like? How can we make a difference in the world? What arc the biggest problems we face? Do you have faith that we will solve them? Are you optimistic or pessimistic? These kindsof questions provided the framework for discussion. Certain themes stood out: teenage pregnancy, apathy, and racism. They are familiar topics to us all, but rarely do we talk about them in large groups to people we don't know. The Battery Creek stu­ dents responded with sophistication. Some pointed out that government is secondary, that its promises or obstacles should not matter much because hap­ piness comes from within, not from the state. Almost everybody recognized the risks we face. We can graduate from college and get no better job than working at McDonald's, no better job than we can get today. The environment is damaged, many people have no homes, there is danger in the streets. "Drugs and too many people," one Battery Creek student explained, "arc the problem. How are you going to solve that?" he asked. The most interesting discussions concerned lo­ cal issues. Battery Creek High School is nearly brand new. The old school sits five miles away, abandoned. It was smaller and it had no windows. No windows, can you imagine? Did you go to a school with no windows? Most of these students did, and their relief at being in a new school building with windows positively changed their lives. A couple of us were surprised at how impor­ tant windows were to student attitudes. One of us remarked, "So environment affects us internally. If all of Los Angeles had new schools, would they have rioted?" Take time for a snooze says university president (CPS)—Go ahead. Put your head down on your desk. It's okay to take a 10- to 15-minute snooze during class, the president of Teikyo Marycrest University says. Students, staff andfaculty at the Marycrest and Westmar campuses need to take naps—or at least rest for a few minutes during the middle part of the day, said Joseph Olander, president of the school. In his first directive after taking over Oct. 1, Olander pointed out that Latin, Asian and Mediter­ ranean cultures have known for a long time that naps are good for people"spiritually, mentally and physically." "Therefore, I should like to encourage each of you, sometime between 1 and 2 p.m. every day, to take a 10 to 15 minute nap. Please take time away from work to refresh yourself by this simple Small factors like windows mean a lot, at least according to the discussion. Some of us worried that these students aren't thinking globally, that perhaps they are narrow-minded because only their hometown seems to draw their attention. Others of us thought, instead, that since "the world isjust full of small places, these small places make up this world." And certainly, the conflicts faced here are similar to those faced in any community, even in the cities. Racism, for instance, was a daily con­ cern. The majority of Battery Creek students are black. Generally, black and white students at the school get along well. They did admit that some­ times fights break out across racial lines, but such hostility is rare, especially compared to the past. Nevertheless, there is an inconsistency in race relations in the school and in the town. Theoretically speaking, students all agreed that people are equal regardless of skin color. That is the easy part. One white girl said, however, that each time she talks to a black friend of hers, her white friends call her a"wannabe." Once this term was mentioned, others chimed in. A black student described how whites sometimes wear certain clothes that follow the style of black students. When they do, some black students talk among themselves. They say the white is a "wannabe." This is true for both blacks and whites. If whites don't walk like whites.olhers think they "wannabe" black. If blacks don't talk like blacks, the same insult arises. What arc the implications of this pattern? Racism remains central. Students now in the second generation after desegregation worry about crossing race lines. According to one student, par­ ents still counsel separation and worry that their daughters will date a boy with a different skin color. Are there political solutions, we asked? In short, had while and black students considered joining together to accomplish tasks which might draw attention to their bi-racial cooperation. "Not really," came the answer. As with government, race relations seem an individual challenge. When our symposium ended, we reflected on its meaning. Some were buoyant "Sometimes1 think kids are smarter than adults," beamed one among us, "and this was one of those times." A sense of commitment circulated to "community — small, local, individual perceptions as opposed to the macro question." Nevertheless, "people need to take a chance," because it seemed that too many students felt "inadequate or unable to make a difference in society." This became the central dilemma: what is more important, the "immediate surrounding or the rest of the world?" In either case, we all agreed that we "don't ever want to lose the passion for life" which we felt that day. James Taylor concert Fri. 'wellness' program," the memo said. "I would like to encourage faculty who are teaching during that hour to ask students simply to lower their heads at their desks with them and take a nap," Olander wrote. Responses from students, faculty and staff have been mixed, although Olander says reactions have been mostly favorable. "We want to build an international university. A 15-minute nap actually increases productivity, and it will give students a truly global understanding," he said. Marycrest College was founded in 1939 as a private women's college and became co-educational in 1966. The 1,400-student campus was affiliated with the Teikyo University Group of Tokyo last year.

Geography in the news: The Great Smoky Mounta By NEAL LINEBACK Special to the Appalachian Fall colors draw incredible numbers of tourists to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Great Smoky Moun­ tains, located along the North CarolinaTennessee border, are one of many tourist destinations in the southern Appalachians. Some tourists, however, remain uncer­ tain about the location and distinctive characteristics of the Smokies, often con­ fusing them with the Blue Ridge Moun­ tains. The Smokies are actually quite small in area. Consisting of about900 square miles (2331 sq. km), the Smokies occupy parts of two counties each in North Carolina and Tennessee. Opera to be performed The Smokies are named for the bluish haze that often shrouds the mountains. This smoky haze is actually very moist air combined with naturally occurring hydrocarbons. The humidity is derived partly from the Gulf of Mexico and partly from transpiration by forests on the mountain slopes. Trees produce the natural hydrocarbons, but in recent years anthropogenic (human-produced) hydrocarbons are being added, making the Smokies even smokier. The Smokies are a very small part of the Appalachian Mountains. The Appala­ chian Mountains extend from southern Pennsylvania to northern Georgia. The Blue Ridge Mountains are located on the eastern edge of the Appalachian Moun­ tains, while the Smokies occupy a small area on the western side. By ERIC RHODES Appalachian Staff Writer The sound and fury of America's po­ litical machinery has subsided to a dull roar, the red tape of the bureaucracy is being rewound, and born-again FOBs are hastily mailing off resumes to Little Rock. The end of election-year hoopla has most Americans breathing a sigh of relief. As I cast my ballot last Tuesday, I felt as if I had battled Goliath and won. I was a (CPS)—The average student at a fouryear public institution willpay a whopping 10 percent more for tuition and fees in 1992-93, according to anew survey from the College Board. impact on state budgets, many people expected muchlarger increases this year, particularly in the public sector," said Donald M. Stewart, president of the Col­ lege Board. The average tuition fee andcharges for in-state students was $2,315 at public four-year colleges and universities, the survey said, which comes to 10 percent more than in 1991-92. The survey also states that tuition and charges at two-year public institutions averaged $ 1,292, which also reflects a 10 percent increase. Stewart pointed out that last year pub­ lic colleges raised their tuition and fees an average of 13 percent.

Today, the Smokies are densely cov­ ered with mature trees, representing one of the most diverse middle latitude forests in the world. More than 200 tree species are represented in distinctive mountain vegetation zones. These zones correspond to tempera­ ture bands around mountain slopes.

Voting process a let down after all the hoof Increase in tuition may cost students At private institutions, tuition and fees average $10,498 at a four-year college or university, and $5,621 at a two-year col­ lege, increases of 7 and 6 percent respectively over last year. The increases were not as high as an­ ticipated. Because of multiple uplifts over a long period of time, the geology of the Appalachians is very complex. Compli­ cating the situation also has been the lengthy erosion process that may have removed as much as 30,000 feet (9,144 m) of rock from parts of the Appala­ chians. their rocks were thrust northwestward over existing sedimentary rocks. The overthrust, or stacking effect, shoved the Smokies upward to perhaps two or three times their present elevations. Erosion then lowered the mountains and even cut through the overthrust materials to expose limestone on the floors of isolated mountain coves (Cades, Wear and Tuckaleechee). The Smokies have some of the highest peaks east of the Mississippi, but Mt. Mitchell, located in North Carolina's Black Mountains, is the highest (6,684 feet, or 2037 m above sea level.) Clingmans Dome, located in the Smokies, is the second highest east of the Missis­ sippi (6,643 feet, or2,025 m). The Smokies contain a total of 16peaks over 6,000 feet I Special to the Appalachian The Western Opera Theater's produc­ tion of "La Boheme" will be presented Nov. 12 at Appalachian State University.

The Appalachian uplift — when the North American plate collided with Af­ rica and Europe — culminated about 280 million years ago. This mountain-build­ ing episode was a complicated, multiphased process. The collision folded, fractured and shoved the rocks of the Appalachians westward, similar to the front of an auto during a head-on acci­ dent. While the College Board survey represents what students areactually pay­ ing, Peterson's,' a Company that specializes in information on American colleges and universities, recently an-, nounced that colleges are charging an average of 11.7 percent more in tuition and charges.

My battle against the political system began at an early age-birth. Given a social security number, I was guaranteed the right to pay taxes but not the right to vote. As soon as my eyes could focus I was placed on the couch to be baby-sat by the television set. Curiously, no show en­ couraged me to turn off the set and go participate in the political process. At age sixteen I was given access to my age group's top killer, the automobile. Unlike my European counterparts, 1 was not automatically registered to vote. As graduation approached I received a plethora of college propaganda, along with a postcard from Uncle Sam. With a stamp, signature, and check mark I be­ came officially eligible to be United S tates cannon fodder, though beer was still offlimits. I waited but no voter registration card arrived; presumably, voting requires more responsibility than dying. Against all odds I managed to register to vote as a freshman at ASU.

Crosby came to Appala­ chian last year after competing on the junior college level his first two years where he became a national champion as a sophomore. He has tremendous ability," said Mance. "He certainly has the ability to do real well if we can gel him in condition." John Reynolds, Corey Creech, and Victor Balmeceda are also expected to be among the nation's top wrestlers. Reynolds is coming off shoulder sur­ In my opinion we have four or five kids that could end up in the top eight wrestlers in the country," said Mance. "It just depends on them."

Rawls finished fourth in the NCAA tournament last year while posting a 33-2 overall record. "Donnell will definitely be a leader," said Mance. "He's got unbelievable abil­ ity. He is looking to become a national champion." ehelm. Mance, coming off a remarkable 15 3 ecordfromayear ago, will send several gery and looks very strong in the pre­ season. Creech posted a 24-6 record last year on route to the Southern Conference championship, and Balmeceda went 28-7 losing in the conference semi-finals. Several newcomers are expected to do well for the Mountaineers in the upcom­ ing season including Eddie Clark out of Avery High School, Josh Klein, a state champion out of Cary High School, and Chris Townsend from High Point. The Mountaineers' main obstacle will be to replace key losses from last year's team. Adrian Hines will be among those _. „ losses, a kid that Mance feels is hard to replace. "This isone of those kids that you don't replace," said Mance. "He is one of the best athletes that Appalachian has ever had." Also missing is Chris Sanders from the 190-pound weight class. Mance will miss his dependability. "This is one of those kids that we will miss because we could always count on him to win," said Mance. The Mountaineers will kick off its sea­ son on Nov. 17.

VSU athletes shine in soccer, cross country and field hockey By LYDIA CRAVER Appalachian Sports Editor A number of outstanding competitors in the Appalachian State athletic program deserve recognition for their effort, ac tomplishments, and hard work in the fields of soccer, cross country and field hockey. Appalachian State senior soccer player David Terry has led the Mountaineers in scoring for the past three years, earning him fourth place on ASU's all timescor * ing chart with 43 goals. Terry, a graduate of Appolo High in Owensboro, K Y, came J to ASU as a two-time all-state selection in " Kentucky. Terry has earned three letters and been named team co-captain for the past two seasons. Afterplaying ten games as a freshman and scoring one goal, Terry began to emerge as a sophomore as he racked up 33 points off of 14 goals and five assists. He started in 21 of 22 con­ tests in the year. Among Terry's goals was the winning goal for the Mountain cers over the Furman Paladins in the 1990 Southern Conference Tournament. In his junior year, Terry chipped in with a team igh 12 goals for 27 points, playing in all 18matches, and earning all-league titles. In his Final year at ASU, Terry accumu 1 Vated 16 goals and eight assists for 40 points to lead Appalachian. Terry was named all-league again in his final year with the Mountaineers. A biology major, he played as a forward for the Apps. Tommy Holland came to the Appala chian State cross country program after graduating from Princess Anne High in Virginia Beach, Va. and spending a year post-graduate study at Fork Union Military Academy. In high school, he unished as high as third in the stale com petition, once placing on the heels of Mountaineer teammate Billy Pemberton. ^a freshman at ASU, Hollandslatcd the highest-ever finish by a freshman in the WicrnConferencechampicrnshipsplacngfourth overall. Named all-SC for his tetformance this year, Holland should f'ld into a leader on the Mountaineer T°sscountry squad within his upcoming our years. According to ASU Head •oach A1 Fereshetian, "Tommy has el­ evated the entire squad's level of think­ ing. He places no limits on himself and is a real believer. He is gutsy, tough, and determined and I am real excited about the upcoming years he will spend at Ap­ palachian. Holland's best time of the season was 24:57, also a record-setting pace for an ASU freshman. Senior captainTodd Walters hasearned three letters and been dubbed an all -league example and is so exciting to watch," Fereshetian said. "Todd sets the tone for everyone. He trains well physically and mentally, is open to ideas, and is very coachable." Walters holds the freshman record in the steeplechase with a time of 9:23, established in 1990. A business major, Walters will be looked to as a team leader in the upcoming track seasons as well. his three years with the AppalachianState program. Earning two letters, Watkins has been at the top of the Mountaineer rankings each of his years on the squad. "Brian has been the most improved ath­ lete in the past year - both mentally and physically. Hehasadaptedtooursugges­ tions and hasbecome a real positive influ­ ence for the team," Fereshetian said. Watkins, a senior, represents the cross Smith has earned all-Deep South honors since her sophomore year. A senior for­ ward, she started in 17 games this season and scored a team-high ten goals, chip­ ping in with three assists. Her thirty-goal total makes her fourth all-time on the Appalachian Slate scoring list. "She is a very fine player and has worked hard the past two years that I have coached her. She has been a true pleasure to work k Holland Smith performer three times in his stint with the Mountainer cross country and track pro­ grams. Described by Fereshetian as "the best leader our program has ever seen," Wallers came to ASU as a standout at Sun Valley High in Monroe. "He leads by HogR Brian Watkins transferred to ASU from Brevard College after graduating from Potomac High in Triangle, Va.

Team captain Shannon Smith has been a leader on the Lady Mountaineer field hockey squad for three years. A graduate of North Stafford High in Stafford, Va, with," ASU Head Coach Cathy Burleson said. Junior Carrie Hogg led the Lady Moun­ taineer cross country squad to a confer­ ence championship this season, finishing firstoverallintherace. Named all-SC for her performance, this year marked Hogg' s first full year in the program due to prior injuries. A graduate of Garner Senior in Raleigh where she was the only female runner on her squad, ASU Head Coach John Weaversighted Hogg's accomplish­ ments despite some physical troubles. "Canie was advised by adoctor not torun because she has such fragile bones. We modified her training, so that she swims and bikes a lot, and she has made it work for her. She is an ovcrachiever," Weaver said. Hogg was named all-conference in outdoor track in 1991 for her winning performance in the 1,500 meters. Hogg' s top lime in the 5,000 meters is 18:52. Senior Julie Cooper is another example of an overachiever on the Lady Moun­ taineer cross country squad. After spend­ ing one year with the program during her freshman year. Cooper exited the pro­ gram only to return in her senior year for another slab at the sport. 'To be out of cross country for two to three years and come back in and do so well tells about the maturity one gains. Julie trained well over the summer and prepared herself for a successful season," Weaver said. A team leader, her top time is 18:53. Cooper, from Leavenworth, Kan., is the sister of former Lady Mountaineer standout Leigh Cooper Wallace. Junior Nicole Disher has earned one letter with the Appalchian State cross country program, recording a personal best clocking of 18:48. A11-conference in 1991 and 1992, Disher comes to the Lady Mountaineers from Wolfson High in Jack­ sonville, Fla. Florida cross country is naturally much flatter and only covers a two-mile distance. "Nicole has devel­ oped well since coming to Appalachian. She is in the spirit of the sport and has best utilized her talents to be the best that she can be," Weaver said. Weaver alsonoted Disher's improvement in the league, as she finished fifth this season after a tenthplace finish last year. Hogg, Cooper, and Disher will all be looked to in the upcoming track seasons. "They each have track potential. It is just a matter of finding the right event and putting them in there," Weaver said. \SU falls 1-3 in Deep South STACEY stills Wachian Staff Writer Lady Mountaineer field hockey in the Deep South Tour "J0" this past weekend at Catawba e8e in Salisbury. e Wentl-3 ^Palachian opened play with a 2-1 s 10 the hosting Lady Indians on FriLady Mountaineers regrouped and 'back to take a 6-1 victory over °int on Saturday morning. e ter in the day, ASU was shut out by the Lady Hokies of Virginia Tech, 2-0.

"We were not consistent at all and we did not play aggressive field hockey. This was not a very good way for us to bring the season to a close," Burleson said. Davidson captured the championship as it advanced to the finals to defeat Davis and Elkins 2-0. Following the tourney, five Lady Mountaineers were named to the All- Deep South first team, and an additional three were named to the sec­ ond team. Senior forward Shannon Smith, senior link Melissa Puckett, senior link Sara Hopkinson, junior goalkeeper Mattie Jean Hunt, and freshman defensive player Denise Whyle were all named to the first squad.

(CPS) In a decision that could have ramifications in college sports through­ out the country, a federal judge recently ruled that Colgate University must pro­ vide female students with an equal oppor­ tunity to play hockey at the varsity level because the school has a men's hockey squad. Judge David N. Hurd ruled that the New York university must promote the women's hockey team from club to var­ sity status in order to comply with federal antidiscrimination regulations. The ruling further clarifies Title IX of the Federal Educational Amendments of 1972, which states that any school receiv­ ing federal aid must provide equal ath­ letic opportunities for members of both Hurd ruled that there is no requirement for the funding to be equal, but the oppor­ tunity and benefits must be the same. This "gender equality" issue has been closely scrutinized lately. According to Sports Illustrated, while more than half the college students in the country are women, they make up only about one-third of college athletes at Di­ vision I schools, and not much more in other schools. Additionally, women's athletic programs get only one in five dollars from athletic departments. This past summer, an NCAA task force stated that gender equality means that if a certain amount of money is spent on a men's team, the women's team - or an equivalent sport — should receive the same funding.

The Chancellor Search — immittee held an open hearing last Friday for students to address the mmittee and share their concerns. Students were asked to tell the committee tat qualities they thought the new chancellor should have. Only three Intents spoke at the hearing. Ten other students had agreed to speak but did I" t appear when their names were called. Inresponse to having only two students on the search committee, the Student of i ivcrnment Association passed a formal resolution that calls for equal student im ireseniation on the committee. The resolution was passed 44-16 with three stentions. SGA president Dan Gurley handed the resolution to committee airman Thomas Chandler on Friday. As Gurley handed over the resolution fm Chandler, only three students sat in the audience to back him up. •• This resolution has been under discussion since the formal announcement of 3»mmitteemembers two weeksago. This discussion was accompanied with the ^formation about the scheduled open hearing. Where were the rest of the 44 WGAmembers who voted to support more student input? The committee gave •e students a chance to voice their opinions, and the students responded with fbarely audible whisper. Why should the committee even consider placing students on the committee when those same students can't show up to for 10 minutes? We, as students, just sent a loud message to the mittee — we don't care. Or was the problem a lack of information? The Appalachian received notice the open hearing the Monday afternoon before, too late for press time. By the lay paper, the 24-hour registration deadline to speak had passed and a reorganizing had to be done on Wednesday to allow students a chance to Posters were not hung around campus, nor were flyers placed in student office boxes.

SCHMOLL Appalachian Columnist disagree with everything you say, we'll print it anyway. The nan is your voice." pPQlachu -Commentary The victory of the Bill Clinton/Al Gore presidential ticket, and the wholesale exchange of power in the executive branch is a watershed event in recent American politics. Some, including Adam Hatch in his commentary piece last Tuesday, have already written off the next four years of the American journey as a disaster of great proportion, as a titanic failure. It is possible, though, to refute Hatch's claims based on same criteria he, himself, set forth. It seems, upon close examination, that hostility to the new administration before that administration has gained power may be part of the bigger problem with American politics, and stand in the way of progress for the people. I suggest that concerted disdain for the president elect stems from a deep ideological difference—a sour reaction to the necessary shift of power in Washington to individuals who, in fact, do not align themselves with conservative political convictions. Many are disturbed by "the rhetoric and promises of Bill Clinton." I do not believe them so naive, though, as to overlook this very same rhetoric in not only the Bush and Perot campaigns, but in every other political contest up and down the ballot from governor to the non-partisan school board seats. Rhetoric is simply discourse. Bombastic or empty as his rhetoric may have been this election year, Clinton was certainly not alone in his guilt. Promises, like rhetoric, are an integral part of the election process. We would never, and should never, elect a candidate who speaks of "some passable ideas" and who "might get some things done, but might not." There will almost definitely be broken promises during the Clinton era, but Bush's failed "No new taxes" pledge erodes much of his credibility as well. Many who seek to destroy faith in the Democratic Party dust off aging memories of the Jimmy Carter years and "the last time a Democratic-controlled Congress worked with a Democratic president." This would be a fantastic argument if only Jimmy Carter were the president-elect instead of Bill Clinton. It remains incomprehensible to me that Carter and the Congress of 1976 represent for anyone a fair or valid prediction of the Clinton administration's potential as a governing body. Any criticism concerning Clinton's position and actions in the Vietnam era is problematic as well. "And what exactly does William know about the military other than he wants to take it apart and cut $90 million by 1997. Maybe Bill is just upset that he had such a hard time getting out of the draft that sent thousands of American boys to their deaths in Southeast Asia. Some call him smart; I call him a coward." Is this a suggestion that defense cuts coming at the end of the cold war and in the absence of either another military superpower or a legitimate global threat to the socio-economic well-being of the United States are actually a product of pent-up hatred of the military establishment on behalf of Bill Clinton? Again, I do not believe people can be so naive. Perhaps Clinton found it more cowardly to die in a war he did not believe in than to remain true to his convictions. It was far braver for him to avoid an armed conflict propagated by a handful of elderly politicians and patiently weather the deluge of insults during a political career for which Clinton seemed to be forever preparing. AIDS is a virus, that is true. Hatch says, "In the history of mankind there has never, ever, been a cure for any type of virus." That may be true as well. But some time soon, when eveyone has a friend, acquain­ tance, teacher or relative who is in the agonizing process of dying of the AIDS virus (and statistics suggest that it will happen), will AIDS research continue to be a "liberal, spend-now, pay-later problem?" Often, people make the mistake of disassociating themselves from the AIDS epidemic even though it continues to ravage arbitrarily the populations of the world. Being heterosexual is no guarantee against AIDS. Avoiding intravenous drugs is no insurance policy. Giving up on its research for fiscal gains is an inhumane and nonsensical approach to the problem, and a sad, fatalistic resignation of American will. To take the argument to the logical extreme, should we cease research into all currently terminal diseases? Who will tell researchers at MIT and Harvard that their grants for investigations into medical mysteries will not be renewed because "we haven't figured it out yet, so why bother?" Who will volunteer to tell cancer victims, "We're not going to even try to help you because it just costs too much money?" The greatest shame in such combative discourse is that it runs counter to the compromise of shared responsibility and reward that makes American government what it is. In effect, its employment distances the speaker from any failure the Clinton/ Gore administration may incur, hoping to feed later like a vulture on the rotting corpse of a failed presidency. Individuals who think like this have accepted neither President Bush's nor Dan Quayle's advice to accept the Democratic newcomer and have met our president-elect with insults and a position more productive of further polarization of the American populace than the position of shared sacrifice that was such a prevalent theme this election year. Hopefully it is not too late for them to reappraise their position concerning the next four years and work for a better America instead of tearing down the reputation of the president-elect with sour insults and irrelevant accusations. AH in favor of pure democracy, think again The influence of special interest groups in America poses a threat to our Republic By LORRIE GANTT Commentary Editor Think back to elementary school, when you had to stand by your desk in the morning, place your handover your heart, and recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Now focus in on that particular line that goes "and to the Republic for which it (our flag) stands." Now, all in favor of chang­ ing "republic" to "democracy" say, "We want puppets for government officials." Although the U .S. hasdemocratic char­ acteristics, our nation's system of gov­ ernment remains a republic. We voted on Nov. 3 to elect Bill Clinton as our new president — an act of democracy — but our president and all other elected offi­ cials are required to stand by the United States Constitution as a standard for gov­ ernmental policies. If America were a pure democracy, the people would have the authority to question and change our Constitution. But we are arepublic, thank God. We elect leaders with the wisdom and strength to uphold our written stan­ dard. Or do we? Think, for a moment, of the United States as a house for its citizens. When our Founding Fathers wrote the Constitu­ tion they laid the foundation and built a sound structure to protect our basic nghls. Our government is responsible for pro­ tecting our constitutional rights and pun­ ishing those who violate the rights of others. It is the responsibility of the people, not the government, to decide what kind of carpet, what style of furniture, and what pictures go where in the house. The people are in charge of arguing about, as well as payihg for details. When the people involve the government in deci­ sions that are insignificant to the structure of the house, the foundation is neglected and weakened. In other words, as members of a repub­ lican system of government, our leaders are required to uphold our Constitution and Bill of Rights. They are not respon­ sible for GIVING the American dream to the people; they are in office to provide the opportunity of success for those will­ ing to WORK hard — those who do not expect handouts or special treatment. In many ways, however, America ap­ pears to be a democracy. James Madison said that "democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have alwaysbeen found incompatible with personal security or the rights of prop­ 8cfore.-Hx.e- elec+Ln erty; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths." Are we not experiencing turbulence in the U.S.? People have be­ gun to question our First and Second Amendment rights. These laws were not meant to be questioned by"the majority." How many of us feel that our personal security in completely in tact? The L.A. riots would have made democracy proud. As citizens of this great nation, we are entitled to possess a voice; however, it is not our role to whine and complain about circumstances of society, then expect government to resolve our inconve­ niences. Americans should not expect government tosurrender itself as a puppet in the hands of the people any more than they should expect government to take advantage of its authority. Cicero said that "without checks and balances. . . democracy becomes mob rule, chaos, and dictatorship." If our leaders listen to every special interest group and give them what they're asking for, our republic becomes mobocracy. Alexis de Tocqueville states that if the people expect the government to give them everything they ask for, then the power of our government "covers the whole of social life with a network of petty, complicated rules thai are both minute and uniform." The U.S. government has no business sticking its nose into our social and pri­ vate lives. Special interest and lobby groups don't realize that the more hand­ outs they receive from government, the more power government has over them. As soon as our president starts giving in to the demands of countless interest groups who see only themselves and not our nation as a whole, our president becomes a puppet, our republic is violated, and America loses her focus amidst unneces­ sary confusion. People seem to think that we need to focus on specific issues of concern to Americans. I say let the people worry about the specifics of their social lives and let the government worry about up­ holding our Constitution. I hear people say that America's house is being de­ stroyed from within, and that our nation's infrastructure is crumbling. Perhaps this is because our leaders have become dis­ tracted by what kind of wall paper the people want instead of maintaining the foundation. Benjamin Franklin said,"We have given you a Republic, Madam, if you can keep it." Wake up, America — we're losing it. -4-fler 4he elect 'oo>... IP �The Appalachian. Thursday.
