University sell~ birth control implant
By Karen Levinson
1\uisrant ,.,.,.,., Editor
Thursday the university became one of the few
major colleges to offer the female contraceptive
Norplant.. an implanted device which many say is
more effective than the birth control pill.
Yesterday, two university students received
Norplant implants at the Student Health Service at
Laurel Hall.
Norplant is a hormonal contraceptive placed
inside a woman's upper arm, said Dr. Susan
Lowry, gynecologist for Student Health Services.
The contraceptive is an inch and a third long and
has six tubes containing the hormone progesterone,
which leaks out at a steady pace over five years.
"It's good within 24 hours after it 's inserted,"
Lowry said. "The ability to conceive should return
shortly after it's removed."
• See editorial page A 1 0
Lowry said the Student Health Service began
offering Norplant after two students requested the
device.
The contraceptive is intended for women who
want to have long -term birth control which is
reversible when the device is removed, she said.
Hillary (not her real name) was the first student
to havl! Norplant inserted at the Student Health
Service.
"I'm engaged. I will be having kids probably in
five years which is the right timing," she said.
Dana Mitchell (AS JR) said she chose Norplant
because she had forgotten to take birth control pills
in the past.
The pill costs $20 a month, she said. "It adds up,
especially when you ' re a student and you don't
have money.''
Because Norplant is relatively new- it was
approved by the Food and Drug Administration in

ELKTON, Md. - Colby Sewell remembers when
he first went to elementary school in Cecil County.
"When I frrst went to a white school, they called me
nigger everyday," he said mauer of factly.
Sewell, 38, also remembers when he walked around
Elkton and was attacked by whites.
But that was in the 1950s and '60s, and times have
changed. Or have they?
Sewell, who has lived in Elkton his entire life, says
although oven racism, including beatings and namecalling have vanished from Elkton. bigotry continues

At Wednesday night's city council meeting the Ku

demonstrating how this small town is struggling to
shed its bigotry-filled past.
Despite conflicting ideals and preconceived images,
everyone at the meeting stood for the Pledge of

president of the Klan's youth group.
"Just when I thought Cecil County had goucn rid of
its image, this happens," a graying white man says
while watching news cameras hover over the packed

Volunteer flrefiJhter Steve Vasey delivered a
baby In an ambulance Sunday.
It was just another SWlday for Steve Vasey.
The 20-year-old student and volunteer firefighter
arrived at Newark's Aetna Hose, Hook and Ladder
Co. on Academy Street just around lunchtime to
wash the company's firetrucks.
Then. at about 1:15 p.m., the call came in - a
"10-95"- or an emergency maternity call.
Half an hour later, Vasey found himself
delivering a baby in the back of an ambulance.
"Not every time you pull out of the fire house
you get 10 deliver a baby." he said.
But every day Vasey and 14 other student
volunteers at Aetna find themselves helping the
community.
·
While baby delivering and other medical
emergencies are reserved for emergency medical
technicians like Vasey, fires are fought by
volwlleers- often the averqe everyman.
Vasey, a second-year student at Delaware

"I enjoy volunteering, but do not see myself

Medical technology, a program begun

trained medical technologists, found itself
on the brink of elimination in the fall
because of declining enrollment and
university-wide budget cuts.
However, hospitals and medical

To our readers,
Starting with this issue, The Review is sporting a new look. After 11 0
years as the university's student newspaper we figured it was time for
yet another facelift. Although we have changed our look, expect to
receive the same award-winning coverage of the campus and
community. We thought and re-thought how to make The Review not
only a more accessible newspaper but a more enjoyable one as well.
Here is what we came up with. Enjoy.

City Council matches state seat
belt laws with ordinances
Wearing a seat belt became law in Newark
as the City CoWlcil voted unanimously
Monday night to bring city ordinances into
agreement with Delaware state law.
"The ordinance follows the state code
exactly," said City Secretary Susan Lam black.
The law mandates the driver and all front
seat passengers to be wearing seat belts.
The driver can not be pulled over for failing
to comply but may be fined if they are stopped
for another violation and are caught bellless.
The law allows a fine of 40 percent of the
original violation, not to exceed 20 dollars.
Proceeds go toward the Victims Compensation
Fund.
No points are levied against the driver,
however, and the violation does not appear on
the driver's record.
The bill allows the City to handle the
administtation of the law and channel all coun
action through Alderman's court.
Previously, violators and police officers had
to appear in state court.
"It saves time and overtime for our city
police officers," said Lamblack.
The law went into effect immediately,
Larnblack said.

Florida students protest state
budget cuts for universities
A group of 3,000 students marched to the
Aorida Capitol Feb. 4 to protest a proposed $44.6
million budget cut for state universities.
"No more cuts," the students yelled as they
walked three blocks to the Capitol building in
Tallahassee.
The Students arrived by bus and car from as far
away as Miami for the rally, which was organized
by the Aorida Student Association.
Tracey Newman, the student group's chief
lobbyist, said the rally gave students an
opportunity to meet with state legislators to
demand more money for Florida's nine
universities.
Many government and university officials,
including Gov. Lawton Chiles, attended the rally
and joined students in wearing T -shirts that read,
"We're off our duffs- now it's their turn."
The slogan referred to a comment Chiles made
last fall when he urged students to get off their
"duffs" and support his plan for governmental
reform.

You might think twice about giving your ·
sweethean a box of candy for Valentine's Day,
because a Texas A&M psychologist claims
depression-not-adoration may result.
Dr. Larry Christiansen, who has researched the
link between sugar and depression, said he has
found that eliminating sugar from the diets of
depressed people can substantially curb their
depression.
"In terms of mood disorders, particularly
depression, caffeine and sugar can have a
devastating effect in terms of creating
depression," he said.
Many people attribute "feeling lousy" to a
stressful job or marriage, when they could be
suffering from an underlying depression triggered
by caffeine or sugar that makes them feel worse.
Christiansen suggests people eliminate both
sugar and caffeine from their diets, and then
gradually introduce one element back into their
system to watch for symptoms.
"Caffeine is not a stimulant for everyone," said
Christiansen, who found that people are more
often sugar-sensitive than caffeine-sensitive.
He warns that withdrawal symptoms may be
experienced when people drop sugar or caffeine
from their diet.
"They may get shaky," he said, "and the
change may be gradual.

The DART number 314, a JX'Ototype bus which talks to riders

Steve Walsh, DART's assistant administrator for market

"We've gotten some good feedback from those who have used
the bus," Walsh said.
Those who cannot see the destination signs on the front of the

Some problems·may arise in the future if the program is

It Is 8 a.m. on the first day of Spring Semester.
A student who completed Winter Session finals four days before
stumbles to the shower. Her eyes are half-shut, but arc soon wide
open with surprise.
Yes, there is a line. The students who have been gone for si x
weeks are back.
Those who were here for Winter Session have become used to
shon lines, uncrowded dining halls and long showers.
"These are MY showers! This is MY sink! This is MY residence
hall! Oo home!" she exclaimed.
Two students who attended Winter Session make eye contact in
the bathroom and roll their eyes at the Winter Session wannabes.
Residents who enjoyed single rooms for the short term must
now welcome their roommates back to cohabitation.
From the viewpoint of those returning, it is a time of feeling like
an outsider.
"[Winter Session Students] don't actually say they don't want us
back, but you can sense it," a Lane Hall resident said.
"I was glad to be home but I wish I didn't have to miss the fun
here," she added.
A university psychology department representative said the
feelings that students experience when returning from a Winter
Session at home remain unexplored territory.

ExPerts say a recent inquiry by the
U.S. Senate into how information was
leaked to reporters during two
congressional hearings last year may
tum into a test of the sLrength of the
First Amendment's power to protect
reporters from revealing their sources.
Last week, the Senate subpoenaed
three reponers to reveal the sources
for their stories. However, the First
Amendment guarantees reponers the
right to gather pews free without
question or intervention from the
government intervention.
The subpoenaed reporters are
Timothy Phelps of Long Island, N.Y.
Newsday, Nina Totenberg of
National Publi c Radio and Pau l
Rodriguez of the Washington Times.
Senate Majority Leader George
Mitchell, D-Maine, and Minority
Leader Bob Dole, R-Kan., appointed
Peter E. Fleming , Jr . as speci al
independent counsel to investigate the
leak.s relating to the Supreme Coun
confirmation hearing s of Judge
Clarence Thomas and the
investigation of banker Charles
Keating.
The counsel plans to ask Phelps
and Totenberg to reveal who leaked
information about Professor An ita
Hill's accusation of sexual
harassment against Thomas.
The counsel is expected to ask
Rodriguez who leaked information to
him about the five Democrats who
passed legislation easing banking
restrictions for Keating.
Because some Republican senators
claim members of special interest
groups who lobbied against Justice
in Review
Thomas' confirmation to the Supreme
Court may have helped disperse
Professor Hill's charges to the press,
Fleming stated he may also subpoena
individu als from those groups as well.
The three journalists said they do
not plan to reveal the identi ties of
th ei r confi dential sources to the
Senate and their employers said they
will support whatever decision the
reporters make.
Kenneth Hanner, deputy national
editor for the Washin gton Ti mes,
said, "Rodrig uez said, ' I wil l listen
carefully to their questi ons and
answer them as truthfull y as possible.
so long as those answers do not
violate the confidence of my
sources."'
In a statement, the Washington
Times said, "We ant icipate availing
ourselves of all rights and privileges,
including th ose under the Fi rst
Amendment."
Eden Laikin, a national desk editor
for Newsday said, "We've run
articles on how we arc going to back
[Phelps] and' don't expect him to say
anything."
Officials from Natio nal Pu blic
Rad io also sai d they will support
Nina Totenberg · s decision not to
reveal her sources.
When gathering news, reporters
are someti mes protected by state
shield laws if one has been passed by
a state judge. These shield laws will
usual iy protect the confi dentiality
between reporter and source.
"Asking these reporters to reveal their sources is
an exercise in futility"
- Mark Goodman,
Executive Director for the Student Press Law Center
Pro fessor Harris Ross, of the
university's English deparunent, said
the bond between a reporter and a
confidential source is allowed to be
broken only when information cannot
be obtained through any other means,
or is crucial to the case or if the
reporter is aware of a criminal
wrongdoing .
"This undercuts the First
Amendment in a big way in regard to
sources taking anonymity," he said.
"U sources are revealed, other sources
will be much less willing to talk."
Ross said this "ripple or chilling
effect" will occur from story to story
and hinder the amount of information
reoorters re cei ve from future
coirlidential sources.
The practice of investigative
reponing would then be hun, he said,
because much of it thrives on leaks
from confidential sources.
However, Floyd Abrams, the New
York
attorn ey
represent ing
Totenberg, said state shield laws are
not relevant to the Senate's inquiry,
which is based on federal law.
Because this case has been sparked
by the Senate, Abrams said, "Our
argument is that reporters are
protected under the FITSt Amendment,
not by any state shield law."
Mark Goodman, executive director
for the Student Press Law Center in
Washington said, "It shows how little
the Senate appreciates the rules of an
independent press.
"Asking these reporters to reveal
the ir sources is an exercise in
futi lity," he said.
"What are they go ing to do, put
Totenberg in jail if she doesn't reveal
her sources?" he said, "because that's
what she said she will do before she
reveals them."
Goodman said he doubts the
Senate exhausted all possible non·
confi dent ial
sources
before
subpoenaing the three reponers.
"They will also have a hard time
proving they need this infonnation,"
he said, "because there has been no
indication of a violation of law by
passing this information to reponers."
Professor M. Dennis Jackson, of
the Engl ish department, said if a
crime has been committed and a
reporter has witnessed it, he or she
has a strict obligation to answer any
subpoena he or she may be given.
However, he said, this is not the
case with the reporters subpoenaed by
the Senate because no crime has been
committed.
"This big, visible, federal case
could effect even the smallest papers
nationwide, and this is not something
that the student press remains
immune from, " he said. "This is just
one more little chip at the freedom of
the press."

Hightimes Magazine rates Newark's

The February issue of Hlghtimes magazine rated Newark 's

In rating America's top weed, the article said the city's pot

totally herbalized. lt also is $125 per quarter ounce.
"Expensive, but worth every peMy," the article reads.
The university has always had a good reputation for its chemical
engineering and an history departments, and now its reefer can be

Perhaps the same students who are in these deparuncnts arc

People pondered why it wu there, but did not really listen to the

Some people tried to make jokes about the hole. One mousehaired man said, ..I wonder if we '11 see China if we look in."
Maybe someone should have pushed him in to find out.

Convicted serial killer Steven B. Pennell restated his desir.e for a swift execution in a mandatory appeal proceeding. Pennell heads back to prison after representing himself before the Delaware Supreme Court.
Convicted serial killer Pennell asks for immediate death
By larry Dignan
Spffiall"signmenl! RPponer
DOVER - Convicted serial
killer Steven B. Pennell reiterated
his wish for a speedy execution
before the Delaware Supreme Court
during his hearing Tuesday.
The hearing was part of a
mandatory appeals process required.
by the state for all capital
punishment cases.
The process ensures that the
oeath sentence is not "arbitrarily or
capriciously imposed."
Pennell was sentenced to die by
lethal injection in October for the
murders of Kathleen Meyer and
Michelle Gordon , two of the five
U.S. Route 13/40 serial killings.
Acting as his own lawyer,
Pennell spoke of himself in the
third person as he described the
mutilation murders with little
emotion.
"She was held captive, alone and
afraid, bound hand and foot and
was tortured and mutilated," he
said of Gordon. "She experienced
terror, fear, pain and hopelessness ."
Marlen'e Simms, mother of
Michelle Gordon, said she was
amazed with Pennell's calm
testimony.
"He seemed calm," she said . "He
talked about mutilation and
murdering like it's something you
·
do every day."
Pennell asked the court for a
quick decision, adding that he
sought the death penalty willingly
and the sentence was an
appropriate punishment for his
crimes.
Court Administrator Stephen
Taylor said a quick decision is
expected because Pennell probably
will not file an appeal with the U.S .
Supreme Court.
If the court affirms the October
death sentence, the Superior Court
will set a new execution date as
early as spring, Taylor added,
making Pennell the first person to
be executed in Delaware since
1946.
But for the parents of some of
the victims, that date will not come
soon enough.
Robert Barlow, father of victim
Margaret Finner, said he wants to
be present at Pennell's execution.
"When you read a book , you like
to read the final chapter," he said.
Although Pennell was never
charged with Finner's murder,
Barlow said his daughter's death
provided a crucial lead in the case
because eyewitnesses spotted her
enter Pennell 's blue van.
Sim ms speculated that Pennell
does not fear his imminent death
and enjoyed representing himself
because it gave him control.
"He wants to go out in a blaze of
glory," she sai d. "He enjoys the
attention."
Defense attorney challenges new death penalty law
By larry Dignan
Special Assignmenr RPpOner
Attorneys for Charles Cohen, the former
university student accused of murdering his parents
in 1988, told the Delaware Supreme Court Tuesday
that the state's new death penalty law is
unconstitutional and should not be apply to their
client's case.
Charles Cohen questioned the constitutionality of
the state's new death penalty law before the
Delaware Supreme Court Tuesday.
Nancy Petrillo, Cohen's lawyer, said the
legislation, which gives judges the power to overrule
juries in death penalty sentencings, violates the
Constitution's "ex post facto" clause and would lead
to an increase in capital punishment.
Before Gov. Michael N. Castle signed the new
death penalty law on Nov. 4 - a day before
Cohen's trial was set to begin- a unanimous jury
was needed to implement the death penalty.
Cohen's trial has been postponed while the state
Supreme Court considers the ex post facto issue.
"The intent of the [new] law is to increase the
number of deaths by increasing the likelihood of
death sentences," Petrillo said.
The ex post facto clause states that a newly·
passed law can not be used on crimes which have
already been committed.
Cohen was captured after a nationwide manhWlt
in May 1990. His lawyers believe the 27-year-old
from Hockessin is constitutionally protected from
being punished under the 4-month-old statute.
Petrillo said she believes the law was passed
hastily because many people resented the fact that
four men were sentenced to life imprisonment
instead of the death penalty for the murder of four
Brooks Armored Car Co. guards.
Attorney General Charles M. Oberly explained
this sentiment in October when he told The Review
that the old death penalty statute was "unworkable.
The public will has not shown through in any" case
involving the possibility of capital punishment.
The jury was one vote short of reaching a
unanimous decision to impose the death penalty in
the News Castle CoWlty case.
No one has been executed in Delaware since
1946, and only one person has been sentenced to
death in New Castle Cowlty since the death penalty
was reinstated in Delaware I 5 years ago. That
sentence was later overturned.
Richard Fairbanks, an auomey for the state, said
the new legislation was constitutional because it
does not affect the basic rights of a defendant.
The Constitution guarantees that a defendant will
be tried before a jury of his peers, not sentenced by
them, he said.
The death penalty law, which is based on a
Florida statute , has been ruled constitutional
numerous times by the U.S. Supreme Court,
Fairbanks said.
His trial was postponed so that the Supreme
Court could determine the law's effects on Cohen
and 15 other death row inmates in Delaware.
If the court declares the death penalty law
constitutional, Cohen could be sentenced to death by
a judge if he is found guilty .

Speaker explores .path
State to redesign curriculum
of Black Americans
By lewis R. Ware
1\uistanr New< Edtrx
Young black adults must build upon
the foundation of racial justice their
parents laid down, said the president of
the National Urban League in a speech
Wednesday.
"None of us can gel to where we
want 10 be without standing on the
shoulders of those who have gone
before us," said President John E.
Jacobs.
He told the audience that while
· African-Americans must seize the
opportunities offered by a university
education, they can not forget their
history.
"When we think about our
forebearers, of the countless millions of
African-Americans who were enslaved
and oppressed and who fought and
who died, they must inspire us to
continue the struggle until racial justice
is secured," Jacobs said.
Since 1965, Jacobs has worked for
the Urban League, an agency with
branches in 113 cities, whose mission
is to promote African-American social
and economic equality.
Jacobs said the di scrimi nat ion
facing blacks today is more subtle and
University research team assists public school system
complex than the oven racism faced by
their parents and grandparents.
"We no longer are dealing with
simple issues like whether or not
people have the right to vote or
whether or not black students can
auend predominantly white colleges,"
he said.
Discrimin a • '~ ~ can be found in
negative stereotypes and public policies
denying opponunities, Jacobs added . .
While racism is alive and well in
America, he said, the need to be able 10
compete in a global market can provide
new job opponunities.
The Urban League has proposed
reconstructing
America 's
transportation infrastructure as a way of
creating jobs for those who need them
most.
Rebuild ing plans should also
inc lude revitalizing the educational
syste m, Jacobs added, making
Ameri cans more litera te and
technically proficient.
"Today countries are measured by
their brainpower, not by their military
power," he said.
"I'm saddened that so many of our
young people have no memory of the
civil rights struggles and very little

knowledge of our past," Jacobs said.
"We need to be fiiTTlly grounded in
our history and our heritage," Jacobs
added, ''for that is the historical context
in which black people must forge their
destinies."
Jacobs was invited· to speak at the
university by the Kappa Alpha Psi
fraternity as part of the week-long
Kappa Konciousness Celebration, said
fraternity president Tony Allen (AS
SR).
The university will create a
new
research
program
designed to help the state
r es tructure its curriculum
within elementary
and
secondary public schools, stale
officials said.
The research would be
bas ed at the university and
would create instructional
programs in basic courses such
as English, science and math,
said Jim Spartz, deputy stale
superintendent.
"What we're trying to do is
build
research
and
development to serve public
schools," Spartz said.
State Superintendent Pascal
D. Forgione Jr. announced the
plan Monday to the Stale
Higher Education Commission
and asked Delaware Stale

program .

Resources . "But we are better off
eliminating one program instead of
making aaoss the board cuts."
He said eliminating the program,
which has an annual budget of
$200,000, will save the university about
$75,000 a year.
"Two of the three full-time faculty
are tenured so they will stay on,"
The elimination of the program
came with a guarantee thal all currently
enrolled students would be able to

honor that," Doberenz said. "But no

"They've all been very upset for the

could lose over $600,000 in tuition
money if they all decide to go

Doberenz said he proposed the
elimination of interior design last year
when the administration asked for
designers to Delaware is being

option available to students."
Rymer said she and other faculty
offered a counterproposal to save lhe

This proposal, which called for
relaxing the admissions re{juirements
and increasing enrollment, would have
increased revenue by as much as
$500,<XX>, Rymer said.
However, Doberenz said be did not

President George Bush announced a
plan Tuesday that will expedite lhe
phase out of chlorofluorocarbons,

Bush's proposal will prohibit
companies from making )roducts with
CFCs after 1995, five years ahead of
the previous scheduled date.
The President's announcement
followed a unanimous vote by the
Senate last week.
An amendment to lhe energy bill
was proposed which states ozone layer
depletion is happening at twice the rate
previously expected, and is occurring
in both the Norlhem and Southern
hemispheres.
Without the ozone layer, ultraviolet
rays from the sun will go through the
atmosphere and damage the earth's
surface, harming both plants and

humans.
CFCs, which are widely used as
industrial solvents and as coolants in
refrigerators and air conditioners,
contain carbon, fluorine and cb!orine.
The Du Pont Co. in Wilmington is
the largest producer of CFCs in the
world. Cathy Andriadis, public affairs
specialist for Du Pont, said a total
phase out of all CFC production would
be necessary 10 stop the depletion of
the ozone layer.
However, she said, this would be
difficult because most refrigerators and
air conditioners need CFCs to run.
John Burris, senior technical
assistant for Du Pont, said, ·:The
chlorine in CFCs is the bad guy that
causes ozone depletion."
Before Bush's proposal, Du Pont
planned to evenrually cease production
ofCFC's by 1996.
~·o u Pont is the largest CFC
producer, but if we phase out CFCs
that does not mean that other CFC
producing companies will follow ,"
Andriadis said.
ICI America in Fairfax is another
producer of CFCs . Paul Dugard,
regulatory affairs manager for ICl, said
the company is plarming its phase out
ofCFCs by 1995.
"We announced in October that ICI
supponed tougher regulation of CFC
production," he said.
ICI has been aware of the fact that a
phase out of CFC production was
necessary for a long time, Dugard
added.
"We
welcome
Bush's
announcement," he said, "but we were

Before CFC production is stopped,
however, safe and effective substitutes
must be found, Dugard added.
ICI is "real enthusiastic about
producing effective substitutes," he
said.
Andriadis said, "Du Pont has been
looking at alternatives for CFC's since
the mid-1970's."
Geography Professor Brian Hansen
said although the elimination of CFC
production is helpful , the ozone
depletion problem will not go away
immediately because existing CFCs
will continue to damage the
atmosphere.
"Phasing out CFC production will
help," he said, "but people can't expect
the problem to go away over night."
The Senate vote was a step in the
right direction because the problem
will get worse before it gets better,
Hansen added.
The Senate's vote was based on
research gathered by two specially
equipped aircraft that have been flying
over the Arctic periodically since the
fall. Research was also gathered by
scientific instruments aboard the
Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite
which was launched in September.
Political Science Professor Janet
Johnson said the research findings
were instrumental in the Senate's
decision.
"My impression was that the ozone

layer wasn't something pressing to
vote on," she said. 'The research that
carne out last week was the impetus
for Congress to recognize that it's a
problem ."
Both the Senate's vote and the
President's plan have been favorably
received by environmental groups, but
the struggle to save the ozone layer is
not over.
Liz Cook, ozone director for
Friends of the Earth, a Washingtonbased environmental group, said, "It's
helpful to have the Senate backing
initiatives to do something about the
ozone layer, but they have not said
what they want to do about it.
"So as far as I'm concerned," she
said, "they still have lhe same policy as
before."

University group to display portion of AIDS quilt in May
Honor society raises funds to bring memorial to Perkins Student Center
By Andrea Galante
Studenr Affairs Editor
In an effort to increase local
AIDS awareness, a campus honor
society launched a fund raising
campaign this week to bring a
section of a quilt honoring the
victims of AIDS to the university
in the spring.
"Our goal is to raise AIDS
awareness and to help people in
the area that are suffering," said
Christine Buchanan (AS SR),
president of Golden Key Honor
Society, the groilp that is trying to
bring the quilt to campus.
The NAMES Project AIDS
Memorial Quilt was developed in
1987 as a tribute to those who
have died of the disease. The
NAMES Project aims to raise
money for
AIDS
service
organizations and to display the
quilt worldwide .
The quilt consists of almost
15,000 panels ,
each
one
representing a person who has died
of AIDS.
The quill has never been
displayed in the state, but if the
fund raising drive is successful, up
to 24 sections added to the quilt,
representing almost 200 people,
will be placed in the Rodney
Room of the Perkins Student
Center from May 21 through 24.
In order to display the quilt ,
Golden Key must pay $8 ,000 to
cover shipping and other expenses,
Buchanan said.
Golden Key will raise the
money but none of the proceeds
will go toward the group, any
funds that are raised will be used
to bring the quilt to campus, she
said.
In September, Buchanan first
developed the idea of displaying
the AIDS quilt to the university .
She completed the lengt hy
application process in January and
received a preliminary site
approval
by
the
NAMES
foundation .
The final step of approval will
come after a visit from a quilt
display coo rdinator, who will
examine the possible display site.
Once this approval is received,
Golden Key is obligated to provide
the money, Buchanan said.
Several members of Golden
Key made and sold 1,800
chocolate heart lollipops to help
raise the required money .
Universit y Dining Services
donated facilities and chocolate to
the group.
Randy Clay, director of Dining
Services, said he helped Golden
Key because of the enthusiasm
they showed for the project
" They took the initiative and
responsibility," Clay said. "We
just helped."
Marilyn Prime, director of the
Perkins Student Center, is serving
as logistics coordinator for a
committee aimed at bringing the
quilt to campus.
Prime said, her job is to "make
sure we give [the quilt] the respect
it needs," such as proper location
to display the quilt and ensure that
proper security measures are
provided so that the quilt will not
be damaged.
Buchanan said other members
of the university community have
shown enthusiasm for the project
The Professional Theatre
Training Program (PTTP) will put
inserts intQ their programs giving
information on the quilt, Buchanan
said.
PTTP will also have donation
bins where the group's plays are
performed, she said.
Chris Eagan (BE JR), president
of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual
Student Union (LGBSU) is glad to
see a variety of organizations
showing interest in the AIDS quilt.
"It's wonderful that another
organization has tried to take on
this project," Eagan said.
Although all money goes
through Golden Key, the goal is to
bring the quill here, not raise
money for the group, she said.
Prime said, "I think it's going to
be very special to have on this
campus."

Students preach to people of Trinidad
By Natalie Streavig
Sraff reporter
While some students braved
greasy burgers at Harrington
dining hall during Winter
Session, Frank Vari (AS SR)
en-joyed shark sand wiches in
Trinidad to help a good cause.
Breaking away from the
typic,al way to spend the January
recess, six university students
doing
missionary
work
discovered what life is like on a
Caribbean island .
The trip was not designed for
sightseeing, but to help students
learn about another culture and
share their religious views, said
Will Metzger, spokesman for the
Inter-Varsity
Christian
Fellowship.
" We live in a global
env ironment and need to learn
about other people," he said.
Nineteen students from
various universities, including
Delaware , participated in the
program sponsored by the Short
Term Evangelical Missions.
However, prayers alone were
not enough to make the trip a
reality . The students raised
money for their trip through
donations from churches,
friends and relatives .
Cindy Houser (HR SO ), one
of the missionaries, said one
thing she noticed were the
differences
between
the
religions of other people.
" Being a Christian, it was just
very strange for me to see
people praying to plastic
statues," she said, "but I reali ze
people are enti tied to their own
beliefs ."
During their s t ay, the group
visited junior high and high
school students and presented
skits, sang songs and gave
testimonies on being Christian,
Houser said.
"I remember one day when
200 kids were there and each of
us had to give our test imony .
You could really see God
working by how aucntive the
kids were," she added .
Other days were spent
cementing and digging a
swimming
pool
at
the
missionary camp where the
group stayed, Hou ser said .
Vari said the program gave
him a taste of what overseas
mission work is like.
" I may never have another
chance to get a taste of another
culture like this again," Vari
said.
"These were some of the
friendliest people I've ever met
and all the students were really
interested in sharing with one
another," Houser said .
But the excursion was not all
work. The group ended their trip
with a day of sightseeing in Port
of Spain and snorkeling in
Tobago, Houser said.
"We had time to relax too and
spend a day at the beach," she
said . "It was like a dream -
lying in the sun and swimming
in the beautiful blue water."
For these students, thou·gh,
the real satisfaction came from
the religious work they did.
"Being able to go and share
my love for Christ in the
schools made it all worthwhile,"
said Melissa Hogan (AS SO) .

" - : .. ft • • : . . ..
1991.
Officials at P.lanned Parenthood of
Delaware said Norplant is more than
99 percent effective, while the pill is
97 percent effective.
Norplant, like the pill , comes with
cenain side effects. ·
The most common complications
are irregular menstrual patterns such
as missed and extended periods, or
bleeding in bet ween periods, Lowry
said.
Other side effects may include
headaches, dizziness, weight gain,
acne and nausea, she said.
Sue Halton. director of clinical
services for Planned Parenthood of
Delaware, said, "Of the patients that
we have had, they've not complained
of unexpected bleeding."
Lowry said a woman should not
use Norplant if she is pregnant, has
unexplained vaginal bleeding, or has
breast cancer, acute liver disease or
blood clots in the legs, lungs or eyes.
Susan Cruzan, public affairs
specialist for the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), said Norplant
is also an option for women who
cannot take the pill, which carries the
risk of complications associated with
the hormone estrogen.
Lowry said estrogen, found in the
pill, may increase the risk of blood
clots in the heart, head, legs and
lungs .
Other complications include gall
bladder disease, diabetes and high
blood pressure.
However, she said, these problems
rarely occur.
Norplant will probably not
contribute to some of the side effects
associated with a combination pill
using progesterone and estrogen, she
said.
The Student Health Service will
charge $350 for Norplant, which is
the price for the kit only. There is no
extra charge for insertion.
Nancy Oyerly, director of women
and infant's health at the Division of
Public Health, said if a woman goes
to a private physician, she can pay
between $400 and $800.
Although the Student Health
Service offers Norplant at a slightly
,cheaper rate, some women said the
price is still an issue.
Halton said, "The cost will
prohibit it from being used widely as
a form of birth control."
Lowry said the Student Health
Service does not plan to stock
Norplant even though it takes four to
six weeks for the Student Health
Service to order the kit.
"There's not a lot of interest on
the students' part," she said. "I still
don ' t think there will be a great
demand for it."
She said students will probably
use condoms and birth control pills
more often than Norplanl.
Lowry said because a one-eighth
of and inch incision is made, the
procedure for implanting Norplant
requires local anesthesia.
The device is insened soon after
menstruation, she said.
According to Wyeth-Ayerst Labs,
Norplant' s manufacturer, the
contraceptive takes 10 to 15 minutes
to insert and I 5 to 20 minutes to
remove .

"No, just the scruffy ones," he
responds revealing one of the
stereotypes which circu lat ed
throughout the room.
One such rule that existed
Wednesday night was a throwback
to the pre-Rosa ?arks era when black
Americans were forced to si t in the
back of the bus. While the members
of the KKK sat in the ftrsttwo rows
of the room, one seat nearby
remained open.
A black man standing in the back
sat down in the chair to the surprise
of many who noticed.
Stares and dirty looks were
radiating from the ftrsttwo rows.
One man. wearing a jacket with a
nazi symbol on it, frowned at the
black man . Another left his chair
seconds after the black man sa t
down. " I didn 't think about it., I only
thought about sitting down," the
black man said grinning.
Ten minutes into meeting, the
Klan withdrew their petition to
march and the ftrst two rows of the
meeting room emptied. The majority
of lhose in attendance followed them
out lhe doors. Several Klan members
remained outside for about 15
minutes and argued with the others
gathered on the sidewalk . One
member extended his hand to a black
man and tried to convince him he
was not prejudiced.
The black man said he doubted
the sincerity of the gesture.
However, he reluctantly accepted the
handshake hoping that someday the
Klansman would speak genuinely.

is get volunteers to make up the

Applause for Norplant
Decision to offer advanced methods of contraception
i~ commendable, but more education still necessary
Although the atmosphere at
this universi ty may seem like a
throwback: to the d ark: ages with intolerance and small minds
prevaili ng it seem s the
administration at le as t has
become libe ral in th e services
offered to its stud ents.
The Student Health Center has
begun providing a new fonn of
birth control to fe male student
at a drastica ll y red uced price.
Norplant,
.a
hormonal
contracep ti ve implanted in a
woman's upper ann, is a method
of contraception which las ts for
up to ftve years.
By making t hi s service
available to students through the
health center, the uni versity has
demonstrated
a
valuable
commitment t o prov iding the
most
adva n ce d
m e dical
technology to the campus.
It is comme nd abl e that the
health cen ter is offering such
advanced methods, for Norplant
was approved onl y one year ago .
Two stu d e nts have already
received the implants , and others
will probably follow suit, but
even with this safe, convenient
method of birth control, all
students still need to remember
the risks of being sexually active,
and act accordingly.
Simply because this device
prevents pregnancy better than
other methods does not mean it
should replace measures to
prevent the spread of sexually
transmitted diseases.
Pregnancy should not be the
sole concern for a sexuallv active
student, and condoms sho~ld still
be considered a must.
In making this contraceptive
device available to students, the
university has demonstrated its
commitment to public demands.
But the campus community as
well as the administration should
still continue educational efforts
to combat the problems of
sexually transmitted diseases and
pregnancy.
Perhaps if we are not in the
dark about the risks of sex,
enlightenment In other areas will
soon follow.

In April, the abortion rights mess
will once again come before the nine
WJelecLed officials who make up the U.
S. Supreme Court. They will decide for
us, when and if a woman can have an
abortion.
The representatives who fashioned
the law WJder review by the Court, and
the people who elected them, will have
no say in the result.
Difficult, thorny questions of rights,
ethics, and morality will be kept out of
the hands of the people, delegated
instead to the specialized legal elite of
the court system.
The Court will hear arguments in the
Pennsylvania Abortion Control Act
case, and decide which of the law 's
provisions it will uphold or strike down.
The law was a hard-fought
compromise between· pro- and antiabortionists, which imposed resrictions
on abortion, but did not ban it.
Court observers predict the court will
not go all the way and overturn the
1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which
created a constitutional right to an
abortion, and forbade states to regulate
abortion in the first trimester of
pregnancy .
If the Roe decision is still in place,
the Court would retain the power to
pick and choose restrictions on abortion
as it sees fit.
Pro-abortion advocates will cry foul
if the new, more conservative Court
decides to uphold any of the law's
restrictions, as it is likely to do .
They will loudly claim the
restrictions are oppressive and
dangerous to women.
The anti-abortionists will decry the
Court as long as Roe v. Wade stands;
the decision stands in the way of a total
ban on abortion.
.
It is time for the American people to
take the atx?rtion debate away from the
Court and the extremists who control
the agenda.
While the Roe decision remains the
law of the land, while the court sets the
limits of abortion rights, we cannot
meaningfully resolve the question for
ourselves.
Once Roe is overturned, the issue is
thrown on our shoulders. The way
would stand open for us to find a
middle course, as we see fit.
No other issue demands such
reasoned debate and willin~ness to
compromise. Questions such as when
docs life begin, what are the limits of
individual's interest in the fetus, and
how much should women control their
bodies, need our consideration.
More practical issues also must be
given our attention. If we restrict
abortion in some way, do we impose
dangers on women who might obtain
WJsafe Illegal abortions? Should minors
be forced to obtain permission before
abortions are to be performed? Do
casual abortions WJdermine the family?
Each extreme has compelling
arguments to offer us. But we should be
given the opportunity to decide the
merits of·these arguments for ourselves.
Polls indicate the majority of the
Americans are uncomfortable with the
absolute positions given out by "prochoice" and ''pro-life" lobbies and wish
to find a middle way.
Those polls show most Americans
feel abortion should not be used as a
form of birth control, while still
favoring a woman's right 10 choose.
We deserve the right to debate the
questions of abortion, and place them
before our representatives.
It cannot be denied our politicians
seem incompetent to face hard Issues
such as abortion. But we can only
blame ourselves for this condition. It is
our duty to fmd and elect those who can
serve us fairly and make difficult
compromises.
The power given the Court by Roe v.
Wade usurps the power of the people to
decide these matters of moral value for
themselves.
The framers of the Constitution
made a bold assumption. They believed
we, the people, possessed the good
sense to govern ourselves and make
weighty decisions for ourselves.
While the Roe v. Wade decision
stands, nine justices assume they are
more capable of controlling abortion
than we. They deny we are capable of
governing ourselves. The decision must
fall.

Do you ever say:
''The check's in the mail."
"I'll call you tomorrow."
"Officer, the light was yellow."
"I'm on the pill."
"Officer, I'm on the pill ."
If you do, you're only a fraction of the millions
or people who lie, according to a recent study.
Nincty-{)nc percent of Americans lie. Although
the other 9 percent probably .lied about their lying
on the study, but they are the smart ones, because
the study also indicated that intelligent people lie
more than the average person.
Smart people lie more because they are beuer at
it, researchers say. Other people who are prone 10
lie more than the average person are common
criminals, uncommon criminals and Supreme Court
nominees.
The study also indicated that girls are beuer liars
than boys, something most of us already knew.
Reasons fo r lying are different depending on
which type of person you are, boy person or girl
person. Girls lie to make others feel better, "Yes,
that outfit looks very nice. No, your thighs don't
look chubby."
Boys lie for the simple reason of making
themselves look beuer. Remember the locker room
scene, "I've been with more girls than I can coWJt
on my hands," a hot-buttered seventh grade stud
muffin brags.
Most of us believed the girls when they lied .
Recall fourth grade when the dainty pre-teen stated,
after intertse interrogation, that in 12 years, she had
never broken wind.
As intriguing as this is, it is not the point. The
point is that she lied well, and many boys believed
her and of course felt sorry for her-after all, she'd
missed out on a major fourth grade past-time.
Many of her friends just 10ld her that she •d know
when it happened for the fiTSt time, a phrase women
hear much of their lives, but for a different reason.
Not only did the fourth-grade class believe her,
Letters to the editor
An issue of culture
I was thoroughly disgusted by the
art icle Feb. 27, 1992 headlined
"Carpenters racial hoops tournament."
The whole idea of this racial barrier in
recreational basketball at Carpenter is
bogus.
It' s not a racial issue at all, it's a
matter of preference.
It doesn't mauer who you are, there
is some group that you fi t into; one that
you feel confortable in and one that you
have something in common with the
other members.
Th is group may be formal or
informal . Just because you don't see a
mixture of races in that group, does that
make it racially biased?
I think not.
I don' t care who you are, you are
going to fraternize with those who you
feel comfonab.Je with, whether they be
black, while, Asian, or any combination
thereof.
Another point I'd like to make is that
different people are exposed to different
things.
There are some sports and activities
tha t are more common in other
countries than in the United States.
Then there are some spons that are
more common among some ethnic
groups than others .
It is only natural to be better at what
you have been e~posed to, and to
participate with those of like skill
and/or experience.
Does this mean that the participants
of the particular sport are racists?
No! It's an issue of culture.
What really disappoints me Is the
fact that a newspaper like The Review,
which can do so much good for the
campus community, would print such
garbage.
It hurts to know that with your
"power of the press" you would choose
to ridicule those who participate in
activities with !he people of their
choice.
With all of the racial tension on this
campus we do not need The Review
being partisan to it, not to mention
creating it.
This article is an excellent example ·
or the many types of things that keep
racial issues alive here at the university.
I believe that you owe some people
an apology.
The article was total I y uMecessary.
Yvonne R. Barton
Intramural Program Speclalllt
we thought we were in serious_danger. Twelve
years of unbroken wind is nothing to sneeze at. We
all agreed that most of Burlington County would
lcnow when it happened for the first time.
Some more alarming statistics came from this
interesting research. Forty percent of Americans lie
about se~. 73 percent lie to siblings and 43 percent
lie about their income. So don't let anyone tell you
about income they've earned from having sex with
their siblings, because there is a 156 percent chance
they're pulling your not-so-<:hubby thigh.
Seventy percent of children learn to lie by the
time they're two years old, researchers say. The
other 25 percent don't know how to talk, but do
drool very well. The remaining 5 percent refused to
complete the survey.
Children learn to lie for a few reasons. One,
children learn that when they tell the truth, they end
up geuing pWlished. Two, many children find that
when they lie, they can get what they want and
three, many infants watch "Divorce Coun."
Researchers gave some hints as to how to tell
when or if you are being lied to. First, watch out for
people who say, "I'm a terrible liar." This Is a sure
sign that the speaker Is a very good liar, and has
great potential to be a lawyer, evangelist or member
of the Kennedy clan.
College students tend to lie about a variety of
different things from their OPAs on resumes to
having orgasms. Ironically, few students report
lying about having orgasms on their resumes,
although many did giggle while reading the
question on the survey.
Ninety-one percent of Americans lie. (What a
coWJtry.) We lie to ourselves about the severity of
our poor economy, unemployment rates and
starvation within our own borders. It's all truth and
the world should not be expected to respect us in
the morning.

Racism reality in Carpenter hoops
In her letter-to-the-editor
criticizing my Feb. 7 column
"Carpenter's racial hoops
tournament,"
university
intramural program specialist
Yvonne Barton says that "the
whole idea or this racial barrier in
recreational basketball at
Carpenter is bogus. It's not a
racial Issue at all, it's a matter or
preference."
In the column it was explained
how on weekend evenings at
Carpenter Sports Building there is
a policy of unforced segregation.
For the most part, whites play
with whites, blacks play with
blacks and Asians play with
Asians.
Ms. Barton starts by saying
nothing is wrong with playin.g
only within your own race. It IS
just a matter of choice.
Ms. Barton, what if I CHOOSE
not to sit with blacks at lunch,
simply because I'm more
comfortable with whites.
How about if I CHOOSE not to
speak with minorities, just
because they're different.
What if the aovernment
CHOSE not to allow blacks to
vote, just because their Input lm't
wanted.
Your point, to be honest, is
pointless.
Ms. Barton goes on to say that
everyone has a group they fit into;
one that they feel comfortable in
and have something in common
with the members.
"lust because you don't see a
mixture of races in that group,"
she writes, "does that make it
racially biased? I think not."
Ms. Barton, I think yes. It's not
just a coincidence that there are
all blacks on one court, all whites
on a second court and all Asians
on the third.
These people play tog~ther
because of race: not skill, not
height and not speed . Only
because of race.
Ms. Barton says people have a
tendency to associate with others
whom they'feel comfortable with.
Is that right?
No. As Stanley Herz once
wrote, "People must break out of
their cells."
It's very easy to stay with
people you are comfortable with.
But It's important to branch out
and diveraify.
Stereotypes are a result of
Ignorance.
Ianorance Ia a reault or belna
sheltered.
In her third paragraph Barton
makes her most ludicrous point.
She says, "There are some sports
that are more popular among some
ethnic groups than others . It's
only natural to be better at what
you have been e~posed to, and to
participate with those of like skill
and/or experience ... it's an issue
of culture."
Ms. Barton Is implying that
blacks are better than whites in
basketball, so it's only natural that
they play together.
Another stupid point.
There are many whites who are
better than blacks, and vice vena.
There are also many whites who
have been e~posed to basketball
their entire lives. Who are you,
Ms. Barton, to say that blackJ are
better than whites?
I'd JO so far as to call that
point, uhmm ... racist.
,
Finally, Ms. Barton says that I
owe some people an apoloay, and
she's right.
I'm sorry that people are ao
afraid to hear tlle truth.

ove hovers in the air, sex sizzles on the brain and Feb. 14 's mood
can make individuals insane. But there's a place where this
phenomenon happens daily, hourly, constantly. Stimulated by a
standard decor of beans, flowers, lace and ruffles, people who enter this
domain browse for romantic trappings and wearable sensuality.
Here resides the spirit of love. Her name is Victoria and she has a
secret.

Lavishly Styled in the English Tradition
Each of the more than 450 Victoria's Secret shops- selling
both male and female boudoir wear - hosts a feast for the
senses. Classical music swirls in the ears. Sweet odors of
soap, sachets, cologne and other assorted toiletry goods
cloud together in a heady m~lange that floods the
nostrils.
Soft pinks and roses dominate the floral
wallpaper, plush carpet and prim furnishings
that make up the store's interior decor.
But perhaps the most captivating visions
arc the brightly splashed, preuily printed
and boldly designed undergarments,

Film Review
Plain and simple, this film is a
Party Time, Excellent! (Translation:
Occasion
for
celebration.
Remarkably good.) buddy movie.
Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers)
and his dysfunctional appendage
Garth Algar (Dana Carvey) host a
late-night cable-access TV show
called "Wayne's World."
All is going well for the duo until
their lives are intruded upon by
Benjamin Oliver. a ruthless
producer-type played by Rob "You
are 18, aren't you?" Lowe.
Oliver wants to put Wayne and
his world on network TV and force
the duo to 'become puppets for lhe
show's proposed sponsor.
And that's where the plot of
Wayne's World begins and ends.
The movie is basically a hodgepodge of assorted skits, sprinkled
with liberal amounts of women's
cleavage.
Excellent!
Wayne and Garth play hockey.
They go to Stan Mikita's Donut
shop . They sing Queen's
"Bohemian Rhapsody" in Garth's
Mirthmobile. No story here, folks.
But that's okay. Wayne's World
needs a plot like Telly Savalas
needs conditioning mousse.
The humor is enough to sustain
audience interest. This movie trips
the chuck-o-meter long and hard.
In one scene, Wayne and Garth
vehemently claim they'll never sell
out. Through some strange
coincidence,
Wayne
is
conspicuously consuming a Pizza
Hut pizza.
WHAM! Extreme close-up of
Garth clad in Reebok apparel.
WHAM! Extreme close-up of a
Pepsi can.
WHAM! Wayne and Garth sell
out.
Acting that borders on inspired
also helps to buoy Wayne's World.
Myers moves Wayne Campbell
from
the
one-dimensional
beadbanger of "SNL" to an almostdeep post-adolescent goofball
headbanger struggling to achieve
Nirvana- a 1964 Stratocaster
Guitar and the Tower of Babe·alon,
Cusandra (Tia Carrere), the lead
singer of The Crucial Taunt.
Schwing! (Translation :My
word! She is attractive.)
Also highly impressive is Lara
Flyrut Boyle as Wayne's mentally
deficient (and possibly psychotic)
ex-girlfriend Stacy.
Carvey, whose role is limited,
does the best with the (not) much
he's given. Whereas Wayne's
character at leut goes through the
motions of growth, Garth remains
as li'III1Sp8J'ent u Saran Wrap.
But Wayne's World, u a whole,
is quite aolid. It's warp-speed
humor and excellent babes may
even leave you with a new
perspective on life.
And monkeya might fly out of
your butt, too.

Winter movie wrap-up
Avnet's directorial
debut a bit 'Green'
Stellar acting keeps 'Tomatoes' from spoiling
fried Green Tomatoes
Universal Pictures
Director ................. ..... .]on Avnet
B·
~rmJ~;;~can Harris
A plate of fried green tomatoes
hardly sounds like a culinary
. delight. Hearing that this dish is a
restaurant's specialty may just be
enough to keep customers away.
Hopefully, however, audiences
won't distance themselves too far
: from the interesting taste of the
. film Fried Green Tomatoes.
Producer Jon Avnet (Risky
Business), making his directorial
debut, has put together a stellar
cast in his adaption of Fannie
Flagg's novel "Fried Green
Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop
Cafe."
Fried Green Tomatoes pairs
the Best Actress Oscar winners
from the past two years for an
effective combination. Kathy Bates
(Misery) plays a grumpy,
dissatisfied Alabama housewife,
and Jessica Tandy (Driving Miss
Daisy) porQ"ays the nursing home
: resident Bates befriends and grows
· to love.
Bates' Evelyn Couch, who's
caught in a boring life and a failing
marriage, remains unhappy
throughout the film. She seeks
solace in Tandy's tales of growing
up in Alabama during the 1930s
and '40s.
Her stories center on two
headstrong
women,
ldgie
Threadgood
(Mary
Stuart
Masterson) and Ruth Bonnell
(Mary-Louise Parker), who ran the
. Whistle Stop Cafe before World
·. War II. The place, a trainside dump
serves the "best barbecue in town ."
Masterson plays a free-spirited
tomboy risk-taker who's never
·ashamed to say what she thinks or
feels. Parker's character is the
: more passive, self-doubting one' she's trapped in a terrifying

and forth between the poverty and
spirit of the 1930s women and the
more liberated situations of the
1980s.
The film would have worked
better had Avnet stuck to the
relationships and connections of all
four women. Instead, he gets mired
in plot developments, many of
which make no impact.
For a first·time director, getting
bogged down in plot is
understandable and almost
excusable. Audiences should be
able to forgive Avnet because he
draws strong performances from
his cast, most notably the fiery
Masterson.
As Idgie, she's both superb and
radiant, the fast-talker willing to do
anything to achieve her goals. An
often
overlooked
actress,
Masterson (Some Kind of
Wonderful) shines, distinguishing
herself from the rest of the fine cast
with a hard-driven, Oscar·quality
performance.
Parker gives a more reserved
performance as Ruth, but is
nonetheless effective. Known
primarily for her Tony-winning
stage work in Broadway's Prelude
to a Kiss, she's also giving
appealing screen performances in both this film and the current
Lawrence Kasdan concoction,
Grand Canyon. Unfortunately,
fans of both Bates and Tandy will
be disappointed by the pair's lack
of individual and paired screen
time.
Tandy, a legendary actress,
proves a magnetic screen presence.
She seems to get beuer with every
part, this one included.
Avnet's Fried Green Tomatoes
isn't a female gossip movie .
Instead, it tells a compelling story
of the changes these women
undergo.
It's not easy for a director to
achieve this his first time out.
Next time, maybe Avnet can
avoid the excess plot and serve the
audience something even tastier.

Set in the jungles of Venezuela,
Medicine Man is a visual delight. At
every opportWlity, the camera glides
across lush panoramas.
Although breathtaking, the scenery
serves as a crutch . For the sole
purpose of popping the audience 's
eyes, Connery and Bracco make a
pilgrimage to the top of a very large
tree.
As the duo pop their heads above
the foliage, oohs and aahs abound.
The plot doesn't budge one single inch
during the entire scene .
When the plot does move along,
though, it ' s usually because of
Connery. He dances through his role
with considerable grace, and his
confrontation with a tribal shaman
saves this movie.
Unfonunately, Connery is teamed
with Lorraine Bracco who, as Dr.
Crane, is the thespian equivalent of a
colostomy bag.

Her thick Bronx accent clashes
distastefully with Connery's smooth
Scottish drawl. With every scene she
becomes more and more annoying
until her performance extends itself
beyond the range of human tolerance.
Her whining grates on the
eardrums. Her mail-order acting
offends the senses. Nothing more will
be said about her.
This is a good thing.
Medicine Man is a "check your

too hard and the movie loses its

Get past the plot and the film's
banal "don't screw with the

Victoria's Secret sells in grand style.
Sight may be the sense most
piqued, but according to Esther C.
Fan (AS JR), a fonner employee of
the Concord Mall Victoria's Secret
located outsid e Wilmington, few
people leave the store without
touching something.
Signs on the drawers - the
bureaus, not the boxers - invite
customers to explore. Most do,
especially when the pieces being
pawed and perused will eventually
become gifts.
Todd Land, regional marketing
director at Christiana Mall, says the
Newark store- the only other one in
Delaware - was added to Christiana
Mall in 1990 to help give the
shopping cemer a more upscale air.
Despite the store's bath comer and
men's area, he says Victoria ' s
Secret's target market is women
between the ages of 25 and 42 , a
group that accounts for 80 percent of
the store's sales.
But Fan says a variety of
custom ers vis its th e store. While
man y of them, especiall y women,
shop for their own temp ting and
titillating goodies, Victoria's Secret
serves pri marily as a gi ft shopespecially around romantic times like
anniversaries, Christmas and, of
course, Valentine' s Day.

One sales assis tant at the
Christiana Mall helps a man choose a
gift for hi s wife. By her own
an armoire. Reaching into its depths,
she retrieves a sheer white gown
trimmed in lace, and sighs audibly in
appreciation as she caresses its filmy
folds .
"I like this," she decides.
"It's awfully see-through," her
offspring protests mildly.
Mama becomes rather peeved.
"It's supposed to be," she snaps.
Another shopper at Victoria's
Secret, "Kristen," a university
employee, wants to keep her real
name as private as the items slie
purchases. She likes the concept of
going to one place and geuing a wide
variety of lingerie in an elegant
setting.
"I love the sizes because they're
cut so big that they make me feel
really small," she says. "I got this big,
fluffy pink robe that's so warm, soft
and pretty. I love it."
She adds mischievously, "My
boyfriend likes it, too."
Though extravagant, Victoria's
secrets aren't always excessively
priced, Kristen says.
"Every two to three months, I get
going on these underwear binges and
just go to Victoria's Secret. That's
when the sales are good for," she
explains.
Fan agrees to some degree. She
says she's seen similar items sold in
other stores at higher prices.
"I wouldn't say Victoria's Secret
charges fair prices, but they're not
outrageous either," Fan says .
"Besides, most people buy this stuff
as an indulgence."

points out.
"But I ' m scared to get him a

wicked giggle.

Indulge in Extravagance
Followed closely by her daughter,
an older woman glides into another
part of the store over the floral
bouquet carpet.
Pausing to stroke a peignoir draped
on a dressmaker's dummy in the
comer, the lady leads her daughter to
Tom Abdou (AS SR) thought of a
rosy way to surprise the girl he was
seeing.
"I had a friend of mine dress up
like a delivery boy to give my
girlfriend a rose," he says. "I gave him
a clipboard and told him what to say. I
wanted it to look really authenti c
when she answered the door."
When she left her dormitory room
to get the rose. Tom says he went into
her room, laid a blanket on the floor
and set up a diMer of Oriental food
and champagne.
"It wasn't for a special occasion it was just something ).wanted to do,"
he says. "We shared egg rolls, sipped
champagne and watched Robin
Hood."
The bright lighL~ of a big city and
the calmness of the waves at the
beach both attract people who enjoy
romantic atmosphere.
Because his girlfriend's favorite
movie was Pretty Woman , Evan
Kahn (AS FR) took a tip from
Richard Gere and Julia Robens and
took Tara on a surprise trip to the
opera in New York City.
He says Tara was wearing a red
evening gown when he picked her up
to go out to diMer and then to the
Metropolitan Opera to hear Pavarotti.
Afterward, he says the two took a
carriage ride through Central Park.
"It was the most romantic
moment," he says. ''The aj.r was chilly
but it was a clear March evening and
all the stars were out. It was like a
scene out of the movies."
James Baldwin (AS JR) was
treated to a night out at the Inner
Harbor in Baltimore, Md., by his
girlfriend Abbey.
"She wouldn't tell me where we
were going," he explains. "She just
told me to dress nicely."
Abbey picked James up and took
him to an expensive Italian restaurant,
where they shared three bottles of
wine and had chicken pannigiana.
It was a warm August night, so
after dinner the couple took a boat taXi
around the harbor, he recalls.
"The idea of a girl spending money
on me because she wanted to was a
nice feeling, " he says.
Mike Coats (AS SO), also wishing
to enjoy the ambience of the water,
took a date to a secluded beach in
Ocean City, Md., for a picnic.
"I put the top down on my jeep and
drove Amy out to this little spot I
found on the bay side," he says.
They ate deli sandwiches, drank
wine and listened to music while
watching the sunset, Mike says.
" Actually , I did the same thing
with another girl I was see ing . It
worked very well - both times," he
says . "The girl was impressed and
doing something like that made me
feel like Don Juan ."
Instead of buying dinner for her
boyfriend, Ci ndi Kelley (HR SO)
attempted to make a romantic dinner
for two .
"I'm not the world's greatest chef,"
she says, "but I thought I'd make Bill
filet mignon just to do something nice
for him."
Cindi started cooking early in the
afternoon and even made her
boyfriend's favorite dessert chocolate mousse.
"Unfortunately, I didn't watch the
meat closely enough and it came out
looking like a shriveled-up baseball,"
she says.
So instead of filet mignon, the
couple called Domino's and enjoyed
pizza and chocolate mousso by
candlelight, she explains.
Romance doesn't require spending
money, because often th e little
thoughtful things "lean the most.
Bob Schwanz (AS SO) didn't
spend a fortune to surprise Shari
Baumganen (AS SO), but he certainly
guaranteed that when he was out of
sight, he would never be out of her
mind.
While in a creative mood one day,
Bob decided to hide 23 slips of white
paper with messages written in red
pen throughout Shari's room.
"When I came back from the
bookstore," she says, "the whole place
was contaminated, with reminders of
him everywhere- and I only left him
alone for 15 minutes!"
Messages were placed in her hairspray bottle, box of paper clips, Pop
Tans box·, in her sweaters and socks
and on the phone, she says.
"I remember finishing a box of
cereal one morning and having this
white slip of paper fall out," Shari
says. "It read, 'Congratulations, you
found this one. I wanted to start your
day out right."'
Shari says she found them weeks
later. In fact, she's still finding them
after a year .
"I like putting a smile on her face
and catching her off guard," Bob says.
"She still hasn't found all of them."
Shari says : "It's unique. It didn't
cost anything and the thought lasts a
long time."

February 14, 1992 • THE REVIEW.
85
Student, 65, has super seniority
By Caroline Shimp
51118Rrpotte.
Unique.
That is how Lucy Kajec, a
secretary for university housing,
describes 65-year-old DeSales
Be:ro(ASSR).
"He is definitely the only person
at or anywhere near that age who is
taking classes and living on
campus," she says.
Wearing an apple-red collared
shin unbuttoned at the neck, Bero,
a Wilmington native, says, "I'm
living on campus and wouldn't
have it any other way. To me,
getting in my car and driving down
for classes every day isn't going to
college."
In the Spring of 1946, Bero
graduated from Salesianum high
school in Wilmington. This Spring,
exactly 46 years later, he will
graduate in the univenity's class of
1992 with a degree in political
science.
"When I was younger I felt that
I was cheated out of college," he
says. "It wasn't really encouraged."
Looking quile scholarly with his
slicked-back silver-grey hair, Bero
says he had always wanted to
auend college. Instead. he pursued
a career working on the
Pennsylvania Railroad for 40
years.
"I lost trace of my desire to go
back to school earlier," he says.
"Oetting a paycheck each week
kept me woridng."
However, he says he retired
early, at SS, to come back to
school.
Upon graduation, Bero would
like to continue on to law schoOl if
his health remains good or if he
feels restless. He says he would be
interested in specializing in
Delaware law.
Bero was 61 as a freshman. "I
didn't know how I was going to be
able to study for it, but I was
motivated," he says. "I did it for
the social education, and because
all my friends from high school
went."
Because he attended college
four decades afler his high school
friends, Bero was once referred to
by Ouy Alchon, a history
professor, as "an echo from the
past."
THE RfVIEW I Pamela Wr;ry De Sterano
After leaving his Pencader dorm room, 65-year-old DeSales
Hero (AS SR) walks to classes like other on-campus students.
Bero's past is a life as one of 13
brothers and sisters. "We went
lhrou~ the Oreal Depression," he
says. 'Everybody was poor, but
with World War II we came back
fmancially. It was tough."
Bero says, "I can't blame my
parents for not pushing me to go to
college. I should have just taken
the bull by the horns and went
down to school with the rest of the
guys."
Bero never settled down to
marry and raise a family. He says
he was "married to the railroad."
"My life was productive on the
railroad," he says. "I felt that I
didn't have enough to offer a
woman and a family."
Though 45 years older than the
traditional 18-year-old freslunan,
Bero says he has met many
"wonderful young people here."
He respects their commiunent and
motivation to go on to medical and
law schools, among other careers.
Jennifer Welsh (AS JR), a
friend of Bero's since her freshman
year, says: "He's the nicest guy in
the world . We havo a lot of the
same classes together."
Welsh says Bero is not at all a
father figure. "When you talk to
him, he's 20 years old. He comes
over sometimes to hang out and
drink a few beers."
Bero says, "I used to go to
parties, but the age difference is
there.
"It's a different way of thinking.
Their problems don't seem as big
to me, but I remain sensitive."
Bero admits these past four
years have been tough on him. "I
tell you," he says, "today they even
add and subtract differently."
Welsh says, "He studies 24
hours a day , but maintains an ·
average C, which makes him feel
bad."
However, Bero says, "The
benefits of college far outweigh the
negatives. It's changed my life by
broadening my horizons.
"I can't say I've been a great
student, but I've tried. The memory
isn ' t so great when you get up
around65."
Richard T. Sylves, professor of
politkal science, says there is an
"immediate affinity that draws
professors and students of Bero's
age together."
Sylves says people in today's
THE REV1EW I ~a Wr-r De Stefano
DeSales Hero (AS SR), once called "an echo from the past" by a
professor, adds his unique perspective to class discussion.
generation need to sympathize with
older people because they tend to
say things "generationally," which
causes laughter from other
students.
" Sometimes he intends for
laughter," Sylves says, "but at
times the students are not always as
kind."
Bero says, "I can see why older
people don't go back to college.
Most feel they won't do well, and
some have medical ailments that
prevent them."
Sylves agrees, saying that "older
people are afraid to make changes.
They are embarrassed about how
younger people will see them."
Laurie Taylor (HR SR), Bero's
resident assistant. agrees that it's a
difficult situation. "Many students
ask who he is. They don't realize
that he lives in their dorm."
Sylves would like to have more
students like Bero, and hopes to
see him again in the future. "He
brings a reality to the students"
Sylves says. "He adds perspective I
don'thave.
"People have to look at
returning students as a resource.
They provide the perspective that
students won't have for another 20
years."
Sylves says he wishes that the
university's Wilcastle campus in
Wilmington, with a strong
continuing education program, was
not so far away.
"Students would be seeing a lot
more people Bero's age on campus
if it weren't for the separation," he
explains.
Bero enjoys attending sports
events and is a member of the
Return ing Adult Students
Association (RASA). "I help the
older students adjust at the
univenity," Bero says.
Because of the age difference,
however, Bero admits, "It does get
lonely sometimes."
However, he adds, "I'm
satisfied with my life. I've made
my contribution to society.
"If I graduate this spring, and it
looks good, I'm gonna be the
happiest guy in the world. I really
am. I could pass away tomorrow
and I'd be happy."

Coming to America
In the university's English Language Institute program, foreign students live with host families or in dorms to break cultural barriers
By Dara Rheinhardt
Si;,/ffleporter
Carlos Milani says that in his
country women wear women's
clothes and men don't wear earrings.
Milani says he likes the United
States, although the people are
different than those in his native
Brazil.
One of nearly 140 students in the
university's English Language
Institute (ELI) program, Milani says
he needs to know English in order to
get a good job in Brazil.
Foreign students study English 20
to 30 hours a week in classes ranging
in level from I to 6, with 6 being the
closest to English 110.
"Each level of teaching in the
program has its own challenges," says
Joe Matterer, an instructor of English
as a second language. "At times it can
be amusing when they mix words,"
he explains, "but everyone has to
learn to laugh at themselves in a nice
way."
The -ed and -ing endings usually
cause the most confusion, he says.
For example, he recalls, "A student
was talking about a party he had gone
to over the weekend, and when we
asked him if he had fun, he replied ,
'No, I didn't like it. I was very
boring.'"
Ell students are encouraged to live
with people of other cultures to keep
from using their 'native languages.
Besides the 60 spaces available in
Pencader and Ray Street dormitories,
students can be housed with host
families.
The Host Family Coordinator and
a host herself, Joan Skilton, explains
the bond she has with Yonil Jeong, a
student from Korea.
"I was in the ELI office one
afternoon and Yonil needed
emergency housing," Joan Skilton
recalls. "He lived with us for a little
over a week when I told him that
although we would still be his host
family, he couldn't live with us unless
he had a car because we lived in New
Castle.
'The next day Yonil went out and
bought a car and is now residing with
us."
Both sides of the arrangement
think it is beneficial. "It's a wonderful
way to bridge the cultural gap,"
Skilton says.
"I think the host families are one of
the best parts of the Ell program,"
Jeong says. 'They are so kind."
Jeong says he likes the ELl
program but that there are too many
students from too many countries
trying to learn English.
" I know there are about 40 other
Korean students here," he says, "but
I'm trying to avoid them to keep from
speaking my native language. I would
like to meet an American friend
because I feel this would help
improve my English."
Bob Scott (AS FR), a resident
assistant in Pencader Hall L, agrees
that the ELI students are determined
to learn English.
He says, "I've noticed that even
when spoken to in their native
language, a lot of students will only
respond in English."
Scott says, "A lot of the lower
level students get frustrated, but then
later agree that it has helped improve
their English."
Scott says he usually understands
the ELI students, but sometimes must
repeat questions.
Scott adds, "Most of the time I
have t6 try and figure out for myself
whether or not the students
understand me. The Japanese students
are so polite that sometimes they'll
just nod and say yes even if they
didn't understand what I was saying."
Despite this language barrier,
Pencader Area Coordinator John
Lund says , "The resident assistants
and I have been having a lot of fun
with the ELI students, being able to
teach them about our holidays and
everyday customs."
He adds, "You never really think
about how much we take for granted
until you have to explain something
as simple as a hayride."

Dreltel University's Physical
Education Athletic Center was
buz zing with excitement last
Saturday.
The hometown Dragons were set
to battle with their longtime rivals,
the Delaware men's basketball team,
in a key North Atlantic Conference
game.
Questions filled the air from the
Drexel crowd.
"How's the freshman playing?"
and "Is he having a good season?"
were among those asked .
They were referring to Hens
freshman point guard Brian Pearl,
and after his 10 point and 12 assist
performance in Delaware's 69-66
win, Dragons supporters were
probably left with a favorable
impression.
The highly-recruited Pearl was at
his best midway through the first
half when he penetrated by the
Dreltel defense for a basket.
The freshman received the ball at
midcourt and made his way to the
Dragons' foul line. Drexel senior
guard Terrence Armstrong caught
the 6-foot, 2-inch Pearl there and
appeared to have good defensive
position.
But Pearl drew the 5-foot, tOinch Armstrong into the air with a
head fake, and lofted a left-handed
jump shot which hit nothing but net.
Later in the half, Pearl was setting
up Delaware's half court offense
when senior guard Mark Murray
flashed open under the Dragons'
basket.
Murray made eye contact with
Pearl and suddenly the ball was in
the senior 's hands for an easy score.
Despite
Pearl ' s
stead y
performance, which also included
three steals and four turnovers, he
was disappointed.
"I'm satisfied that we won, but
personally it was one of the worst
games I've played this year, " said
Pearl following the game.
More often than not , it ' s been
Pearl's consistent play at the point
guard position which has helped the
Hens to a 17-3 overall record .
Since his arrival at Delaware,
Brian Pearl has more then lived up
to his high school billing.
Last year while playing at York
(Pa.) Catholic, Pearl was named
honorable mention All-America by
USA Today and second team AllState in Pennsylvania.
Th is season , Pearl has started
every game for the Hens and has
stabilized Delaware's offense after a
shaky start.
"It was real difficult at first, at
times even frustrating," said Pearl,
who has twice been selected as the
NAC's Rookie of the Week.
"Coming off of the summer I
thought I was playing well.
"In pre-season I really didn't play
well at all. I learned that I couldn't
. do a lot of things I did in high school
right off the bat," he said.
Since adapt ing to the college
game, Pearl has gone on to average
JO.B points and 4 .5 assists per game
for the Hens. He also leads the team
in minutes with 31.B and his B3 .1
percent free throw shoot ing is
second best in the NAC.
"A lot of the seniors stood by my
side," said Pearl. "They said, ' It' s
hard to come right out of high
school and adjust to the college level
right away.'
"It helped me out a lot that they
weren't ready to give up on me.
They stuck right by me," he said.
Delaware coach Steve Steinwedel
said Pearl 's greatest improvement
this season has been in his decision
making.
"He sees the game and
understands the game pretty well,"
said Steinwedel.
When watching Pearl quarterback
the Hens' offense, what's most
impressive is the poise he displays .
The freshman appears like a
seasoned veteran on the court and in
the Dreltel game, it seemed as
though he had dueled wi th
Armstrong for four years, when in
fact it was the first meeting between
the two .
"We knew he had that kind of
ability when we recruited him and
we had seen that kind of poise in
high school," said Steinweidel.
For Pearl, his high school career
may have actually began before he
entered siltth grade.
That's when Pearl attended the
summer basketball camp of York

have come in last and had a good
jump than come in last and have a
bad jump."
For the men, senior Rob Graham
launched 23-feet, 4 3/4-inches to
win the long jump and qualify for
the IC4A Championships. Junior
teammate Randy Lambert finished
fifth with a 22-feet, 4 1/4-inches
effort.
"I had hoped to go a little more in
finals, but I was tired after trials,"
said Graham . "Nothing in particular
stands out about the winning jump,
it was decent."
Junior Mark Fields smashed his
own school record in the 200-meter
dash while qualifying for IC4As
with a 22.4B clocking, and fellow
junior Tim Jacobs smoked out a 6.4B
in the 55-meter dash to set a new
school indoor mark.
"Tim Jacobs and Fields gave us
really strong performances in the
sprints today," Delaware men's
track and field coach Jim Fischer
said. "They both put out impressive
efforts."
The most impressive distance
performance for· the Hens was given
by sophomore Steve Argentiero,
who came within a second of
breaking the Delaware indoor 1,500meter record with a time of 3:57.9.

"When she's in, she pushes up

junior forward Molly Larkin. "Sara
sees the whole court, and makes
some great passes. She reminds me
a lot of (former Delaware point

Three years later, Pearl earned a
starting position for York Catholic
during his freshman year.
Pearl credited Keesy and his
father with helping him develop his
poise.
"Coach Keesy gave me the
confidence coming out of grade
school by letting me start on a high
school team that had just previously
won the state championship," he
said.
Keesy said Pearl became a team
leader during his junior year when a
senior teammate was injured. The
coach went to Pearl and asked him
to take a more assertive role. Pearl
responded and led his teammates to
a state championship.
Pearl finished his senior year as
the all-time leading scorer in York
County with 2,175 points and many
scholarship offers.
Rutgers
University,
the
University of Richmond and James
Madison University were among the
co lleges pursuing him , but
Delaware's situation was the best
one for Pearl.
"I looked at it realistically and
said where is the school that needs
me the most," said Pearl. "I just
wanted to go in and contribute as a
freshman."
And he has.

"In high school I was told by
people that I could only play

"But I took those lillie quotes

dwell on. It's a sood feeling coming

she said.
Now, despite limited minutes and

"I'm not soins to be able to

Gledzinski said.

Crossword puzzle
Hello. Allow me to introduce
myself, my name is Aunt Evvie
Spumoni. Whose aunt, you ask?
Everyone's.
My nephew Elmo attends this very
university. Maybe you've seen him,
he's an English major. I'll tell you
more about him in the next issue. It'll
be a tribute to the common ma:n.
If life were simple, I'd own
controlling interest in IBM . I could
spend my time knitting sweaters and
baking my famous Spumoni
chocolate-chip fudge cookies. On the
Riviera, no less.
But life is not simple, we all know
that. That's where I come in.

Plain and simple, I am here to help
you . If you have any sort of problem
or question, write it down and send it
to me, care of The Review.
With any luck, The Review will
also spring for some letter-boxes to
be put in the Scrounge and the
Morris Library Commons.
But first, a few ground rules. I am
riot allowed to answer your letters
unless you sign your nante and phone
number to them . This is for
verification only.
Letters on I y, please. I am not
allowed to answer phone calls .
Besides, I'd talk your ears off if you
gave me the chance.
I will respect all requests for
anonymity. Of course, if you want
me to print your name, that can be
arranged as well.
You will learn that I can be
sarcastic at times. Be assured that if
you have a serious problem, it will
receive a serious response.
And if something is above my
ability to answer, I promise you I
will get the information from an
expen. Or at least someone who can
fake it really well.
•
While I'm waiting for your letters
to arrive, I'll take some time (and
space) to tell you about myself, my
nephew Elmo and exactly what I
think about this panicular university.
Hey, it's Valentine's Day, so
that's as good a place as any to stan.
Listen to your Aunt. Take some
time out to tell that special man or
woman, boy or girl you care about
them. Write them a note. Send them
a fax. Anything.
Valentine"s Day is a wellspring of
opponunity, a day in which all things
are possible.
Go forth, and ask that pretty girl in
your math class on a date. If you're
female, g~ up to that strapping
bohunk and tell him he's cute.
On Feb. 14, most of all, you have
nothing to lose and everything to
gain.
Seize the day. Send in those letters
and I' ll see you on the funny pages.
Letters to Aunt Spumoni can be
sent via campus mail to:

Richard Jones, th.: editor of this
paper, is a good friend of mine. He
came to me the other day and asked
if there was anything we could do to
make The Review a better paper.
"Advice column," I said. "Your
paper doesn't have an advice
column."
"Isn't that a little amateurish?" he
asked, smoothing out his mustache.
"Amateurish? Is that what they
call helping people these days?" I
replied.
"Uhhh," he said. Nice boy,
Richard. Good newspaperman. A bit
silly, though.
"Besides," I added, "Don't the
Philadelphia Inquirer and thousands
of other 'respectable newspapers' run
'Dear Abby'?"
"And didn't you do some work for
the Inquirer?"
And Richard said, "So, who do
you think we should get to write this
column?"
