Tragedy averted in accidental acid spillBy LIZ FORANAssistant News Editor

An accident a t the Radiation B u ild in g T u e sd a y m o rn in g c a u se d a m in o r in ju ry to a Notre Dame graduate student.

A ssistant D irector of Notre Dame Security Charles Hurley said tha t a t about 11:36 a.m. a 28-year-old g raduate student was carrying a 1 liter bottle of acid when she dropped it. The acid sp la sh e d onto h e r and around the room, causing the entire building to be evacuat­ed d u e to i r r i t a t in g fu m es from the spill.

The student was transported to St. Joseph Medical Center, w h e re sh e w as t r e a te d by

flushing h er skin w ith w ater. She w as la te r r e le a s e d the same day, Hurley said..

Risk M anagement, a division of th e N otre Dam e S ecurity D epartm ent, took care of the spill, according to Hurley.

Tom Quarandillo, captain of the C-shift of the Notre Dame Fire D epartm ent who w as at the scene, said tha t Risk Man­a g e m e n t a p p e a re d to have cleaned up the spill safely and effectively.

“We w ere out th e re about half an hour, ” he said. “It was a very serious incident, but it w as taken care of with m ini­mum fanfare and no addition­al injuries. Everyone involved did a great job .”

HALL PRESIDENTS COUNCIL

Weekend Wheels safe—for nowBy BRAD PRENDERGASTNews Writer

Despite recen t concerns and controversies that threatened to sh u t it dow n, th e H all P re s i­dents Council (HPC) determ ined la s t n ig h t th a t th e W eekend W heels program will continue through this school year.

However, Rich Palerm o, co- ch a irm an of the council, said th a t the HPC will form a com­m ittee to investiga te a lte rn a ­tives in the event that the pro­gram becomes less useful.

“We a re c o n tin u in g i t , ” Palerm o said, “but we are ex­p lo rin g o th e r op tions ju s t in case.”

The fou r-year-o ld p rogram , w h ich h e lp s s tu d e n ts a t off- cam pus bars and parties return home safely, has been plagued by occasional low ridership and abuse of its services.

The HPC vo ted s tro n g ly to m a in ta in W eekend W heels, a sign of the council’s strong en­dorsem ent of the program , ac­cording to T ara Bonner, coor­dinator of Weekend Wheels for the HPC.

“W e’re not concerned about

r id e r s h ip ,” B o n n e r sa id , “because if we can save one life with this, then it’s worth it.”

Ridership has been higher on hom e football w eekends, with a ro u n d 200 people using the service on the w eekend of the M ichigan gam e. However, on o ther w eekends, the num bers have been m uch sm aller. Only 30 people used it on the week­end of Sept. 16-17.

As p a r t of its renew ed su p ­po rt, the council p lan s to in ­crease s tu d en ts’ aw areness of the program .

Advertisem ents aimed at off- cam pus students will increase, and schedules of the bus s e r ­vices will be made available to everyone.

“We w ant people to talk it up in th e ir d o rm s,” B onner said, “and we will also work with the bars, since the service obviously benefits them as well.”

From the increase in advertis­ing, the HPC hopes to establish a w id e r b ase of s tu d e n t su p ­port.

“We w ant to get the program up and re a d y ,” B onner sa id , “and then w e’ll re-evaluate it at the end of the year.”

H ow ever, in th e ev en t th a t W eekend W heels does not be­com e m ore w idely u sed , the council will be p rep a red w ith other options.

“We’ll be researching the al­te rn a tiv es by looking a t w hat other schools around the coun­try are doing, ” Bonner said.

P a le rm o s t r e s s e d th a t no o th e r op tions have b een d is ­cussed seriously yet.

“N o th in g is c o n c r e te ,” he said.

In o th e r new s d iscu ssed by th e HPC in its m e e tin g la s t night:

The HPC is sp o n so rin g the p a in t in g of tw o S o u th B end hom es on S aturday as p a rt of th e N o rth e a s t N eighb o rh o o d Rejuvenation Project.

A ccording to K aren DuBay, coordinator of the project, any­one is welcome to volunteer.

“The project gets Notre Dame s tuden ts involved in the com ­m unity," DuBay said. “W e’re try ing to give a m ore positive im ag e of s tu d e n ts a t N o tre Dame.”

Anyone in terested in volun­tee rin g should con tac t DuBay by Friday evening.

BC’s not the only reason

to hit the road

Michael O ’HaraAssistant Viewpoint

Editor

Here I go again.Ah, autum n. The leaves

lose their luster. The air packs a bit more bite in the morning. The sounds of the gridiron reverber­ate through campus.Spirit oozes from every corner of this campus.

And I once again hit the road. This year off to Milwaukee,Wisconsin. I have seen m ore of this country on w eekend trips in early November than I have on any vacation for quite some time.

This year will m ark my fifth road trip. A trip not for pleasure, but in pursuit of the b rass ring, a goal if you will that has been n ear, but not here.

The first year I got to see Cleveland, Ohio (of all places). Lucky I am from Ohio or the com­m ute would have been m urder. Cleveland doesn’t have much to offer, but w hat city does w hen you’re there for only five hours.

W ashington, D C. was the next stop on my November tours. Monuments, history, cul­ture, and another successful undertaking which turned out for naught.

My next two trips, as this year’s, began from a different locale—here a t Notre Dame. My first stop took me to Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Mall of America was cool, a shopper’s paradise, but the same results were returned as the previous two years.

And then last year. Omaha, Nebraska.W hat can you say about Omaha? I’ll ju st say I stayed in the hotel all weekend. I think th a t’s enough.

This year I hope will be different. I w ant to make my goal come to fruition. And Milwaukee may just be the place.Milwaukee’s products are well known, partic­ularly to many a student on this campus. I hope Milwaukee will come through for me.

My desire for money and my need for recog­nition compel me to continue this wild pursuit of a goal very attainable, very profitable.

W hat is this goal you may ask? How wise of you to phrase it in the form of a question. If you said, “W hat is audition for Jeopardy!?" you are correct. In all the press surrounding the new movie Quiz Show I am making my own effort to be a part of the quiz madness.

This year will be different. This year every­thing will change. Things will go in my favor, the call will come, the cash will s ta rt rolling in. A potential payoff of $25,000 or more, plus, a beauty of a trophy not to mention a new car. And then the Tournam ents to come. Not a bad exchange. I give them the years of useless and trivial knowledge I have stored up and they rew ard me handsomely.

And if I don’t get selected again this year? For the fifth year in a row? I’ll have one more year of eligibility. One more chance to show w hat years of public education (and now pri­vate education) have taught me. After that I’ll have to make my claims on the regularly tele­vised program . More money, maybe I should ju st forego my last year of eligibility and head straight into the big leagues. Maybe not.

Think about w hat those dollars could do. I know my room m ates already have, they have been planning for quite some time. Wish me luck, I know my room m ates will be wishing for that and more.

fORLD AT A GlANCm WWUMLU AI A ULAMUC

Appearances aside, suing a company doesn’t guaranteeNEW YORK Schnader, H arrison,

successNEW YORK

Sometimes it seems like suing a com pany is guaran teed to m ake a plaintiff a millionaire.

A secretary is aw arded $7.1 mil­lion in a sexual harassm ent lawsuit against the Chicago law firm Baker & McKenzie, although she worked at the firm for just three months.

An 81-year-old woman receives a $2 .9 m illion ju ry a w a rd a g a in s t M cD onald’s a fte r su ffering th ird - d e g re e b u rn s from th e fast-food chain’s hot coffee.

Big aw ard s like th e se g rab big h e a d l in e s . B ut th e p u b lic o ften hears little about the afterm ath — a ju d g e c u t th e a w a rd a g a in s t M cDonald’s to $480 ,000 , and the Baker & McKenzie decision is likely to be appealed.

The sense from m edia reports is that the num ber of individuals suing com panies and winning is increas­ing and th a t ju ry aw ards — espe­cially in the emotionally charged areas of employment law and product liability — are climbing into the stratos­phere.

The reality, however, is more complex.Yes, juries are sending messages to employers that dis­

crimination and harassm ent a t work are not acceptable. The num ber of aw ards is growing. But th a t’s because ju ry trials and punitive dam ages in such cases w eren’t allowed before 1991 am endm ents to the Civil Rights Act.

“ It took time for those cases to make their way through th e p ip e lin e ,’’ sa id C hris tin e Carty, a litig a to r w ith

Schnader, H arrison, Segal & Lewis who works in employment law.

In p ro d u c t liab ility law , d esp ite some large, well-publicized aw ards, th e n u m b e r of su its h a s a c tu a lly declined since the m id-1980s and co n su m ers a re find ing ju r ie s less sym pathetic to th e ir causes, legal experts say.

Furtherm ore, one in two aw ards is either reversed or reduced by juries or ju d g es, said M ichael R ustad , a p rofessor a t Suffolk Law School in Boston.

State courts, which handle about 100 tim es the case load of federal courts, say that while 18 million new law su its a re filed each y e a r, less th a n 2 p e rc e n t a re to r t c a se s — those involving wrongful acts, injury, negligence or damage.

In federal court, of the more than 200,000 civil suits filed, only about 6 percent are product liability cases.

And product liability filings in fed­eral courts, with the exception of asbestos cases, declined by about 36 percent between 1985 and 1991, according to the American Bar Association. All to rt filings fell by about 20 percent, also excluding asbestos cases, over the same period.

But in d isc r im in a tio n and h a ra s s m e n t c a se s , th e changes in the Civil Rights Act have prom pted individuals and lawyers to file more suits, said Ronald Green, a p a rt­n er a t Epstein Becker & Green, a firm th a t rep resen ts many companies.

Princess and the major: a tale o f a treason? Judge disallows justifiable homicide defenseLONDON

To the establishm ent h e ’s a cad. If the story of a love affair with Princess Diana is true he’s also a traitor under the law and — technically a t least — could face execution. While Maj. Jam es H ew itt ducked the v e rb a l b rick b a ts Tuesday, initial sales of a book alleging he h ad a f iv e -y e a r a f fa ir w ith th e princess w ere brisk, and high society w ondered w here trad itiona l codes of honor have gone. “He has gone too far and I think other officers will be disinclined to have anything to do with him ,’’ said Bob Higson, a spokesman for the prestigious Life G uards, H ew itt’s fo rm er reg im en t. “ P rincess in Love,’’ a work by freelance journalist Anna Pasternak, show s Hewitt to be “ a fully fledged cad ," w rote Niall F e rg u s o n , a fe llo w in m o d e rn h is to ry a t O xford University’s Jesus College, in The Daily Telegraph.

PENSACOLA, Fla.A federal judge refused today to allow a m an accused

of fatally shooting an abortion doctor and escort to use a justifiable homicide defense. “There are legal a lte rn a ­tives, certainly legal alternatives far less intrusive and far less evil” than killing som eone to stop abortions, U.S. D istrict Judge Roger Vinson said The defendant, Paul Hill, had contended he chose the lesser of two evils by attacking a doctor and his escort ra th e r than allowing abortions to be perform ed. Defense atto rney M aureen Duignan argued that Hill had tried legal ways of prevent­ing abortions, including picketing clinics, speaking to doctors, and doing media interviews. She added that o th­ers had tried methods ranging from opening crisis preg­nancy centers to bombing clinics but all had failed to p re ­vent abortions. The prosecution saw it another way. “ He laid in wait and shot two elderly men in the head with b u cksho t and he asks the law to p ro tec t h im ,” said Assistant U.S. Attorney David McGee.

Yeltsin: Russia stronger since 1993 rebellion Protecting Western forests a costly affair

MOSCOWAs dem onstrators ringed the old parliam ent building

to m ark the anniversary of a crushed rebellion, President Boris Yeltsin said Tuesday tha t Russia is stronger and m o re c o n f id e n t b e c a u s e th a t “ seco n d O c to b er Revolution” failed. And Yeltsin said there is a new re ­spect for Russia abroad. About 1,500 Communist sup ­p o rte rs form ed a hum an chain around R ussia’s White House, the old parliam ent building, a year after Yeltsin sent in tanks and soldiers to end the rebellion over his disbanding of parliam ent. The dem onstrators observed a minute of silence in memory of the more than 140 people who died in the violence. Yeltsin, too, paid tribute to the dead , “ re g a rd le ss of w hich side they w ere o n ,” and asked the new parliam ent to cast aside "h u r t feelings and petty disputes.”

WASHINGTONThe Forest Service would have to spend $3.5 billion,

roughly its annual budget, to deal with health and wild­fire concerns on ju s t 10 percent of the national forest lands in the West, a congressional report says. Salvage logging, prescribed burning and other operations would probably cost an average of about $250 per acre over the 14 million acres of national forests in the region, the Congressional Research Service said Tuesday. The se r­vice, the research arm of the Library of Congress, also concluded that salvage logging — harvesting dead, dying and burned trees — never produces enough money to off­set the costs to the federal treasury. However, top offi­cials for the Agriculture and Interior departm ents said the benefits of reduced fire th reat and improved wildlife habitat often outweigh the costs.

Espy resigns amid controversy Legal maneuveringsmay delay Rosty trialAssociated Press

WASHINGTON A g ricu ltu re S ec re ta ry Mike

Espy pledged Tuesday to spend his last th ree m onths in office p re p a rin g a m a jo r fa rm bill, although a widening probe into his conduct p rom ises to be a distraction.

A day a fte r announcing his r e s ig n a t io n , Espy w as in Kansas City, Mo., prom oting a m o re e th n ic a lly d iv e rse D e­p a r tm e n t of A g ricu ltu re and sp e a k in g to th e K an sas City Board of T rade about govern­ment policy.

As C ongress w as p o ised to finish work on bills revam ping d isaster assistance to farm ers an d re o rg a n iz in g th e A griculture D epartm ent, some fa rm g ro u p s an d la w m a k e rs q u e s tio n e d w h a t th e loss of Espy will m ean for agriculture.

“ Mike Espy w as a very able s e c re ta ry ,” sa id Don L ipton, director of inform ation for the A m e ric a n F a rm B u re a u Federation. “ He tackled a wide variety of issues. He had credi­bility in the ag community and had credibility, a t least before he got into this mess, with his colleagues on the Hill.”

Espy is leaving before m eet­

ing the ultim ate test: shaping a farm bill that m aps out govern­m ent policy on everything from conservation to price supports for the next five years.

Until he leaves office Dec. 31, Espy m ust look over his shoul­d er a t the squad of a tto rneys and six FBI agents assem bled by D onald C. Sm altz, the Los Angeles lawyer appointed by a three-judge panel to investigate him.

“W e’re going through a very c r i t ic a l p e r io d ,” s a id Sen . Thomas A. Daschle, D-S.D., one of Espy’s most loyal backers in the Senate. “ Mike has been a very aggressive and successful sec re ta ry , and th is tran s itio n w ill have som e effect on our m om entum ."

D asch le a n d Sen . R ic h a rd L u g a r , R -In d ., th e to p Republican on the Senate Agri­c u ltu re C om m ittee , say Espy can use his last few m onths to s ta r t the w ork of m erging de­p artm en ta l agencies and clos­ing field offices.

‘‘A g re a t d e a l o u g h t to be done swiftly,” Lugar said.

S m a ltz , th e in d e p e n d e n t cou n se l, is look ing in to gifts Espy received from individuals and firm s doing business w ith th e d e p a r tm e n t . S in ce th e

inv estig a tio n o rig in a ted w ith th e d e p a r tm e n t ’s O ffice of In sp e c to r G enera l in M arch , questions have also been raised ab o u t E spy’s p e rso n a l use of official travel and vehicles.

Espy, 40, has denied w rong­doing, b u t told d e p a rtm e n ta l employees in Kansas City: “ In politics, perception is reality. ...I have to leave.”

The la te s t tangle involves a $1,200 scholarship his compan­ion, Patricia Dempsey, received from a foundation c rea ted by Tyson Foods Inc., the Arkansas poultry em pire w ith close ties to President Clinton.

A senior adm inistration offi­c ia l in d ic a te d M onday th a t w hile no law m ay have been broken, the incident looked like a breach of ethical standards.

Dempsey’s attorney, Jim Cole, refused to com m ent about the m atter except to say Espy had nothing to do with the scholar­ship and Dempsey ap p ears to face no legal difficulties herself.

“ She is h e r own ind iv idual person,” he said.

D em psey h as acco m p an ied Espy on several trips, including one in May 1993 w hen Espy s p e n t th e n ig h t a t a T yson- owned facility and flew back to W ashington on a Tyson jet.

Ousted Rwandan Hutus demand power sharingBy ANGUS SHAWAssociated Press

But the new governm ent that gained power in July is unlikely to offer concessions to Hutus it w ants tried for w ar crimes.

It sa y s H u tu s o ld ie r s an d civilian militias, spurred on by officials of the ousted Hutu gov­ernm ent, m assacred more than

500.000 people, mostly Tutsis, a f te r th e d e a th of H u tu President Juvenal Habyarimana in a m ysterious April 6 p lane crash.

They have killed and th re a t­ened refugees who w ant to go home and have terrorized relief w orkers. Aid agencies say the intim idation is the m ain factor p re v e n t in g re fu g e e s from returning home.

Aid w orkers agreed Tuesday

to send a sm all staff back into one re fu g e e cam p se ized by Hutu m ilitiam en five days ago, s a id L yndall S ach s , s p o k e s ­w o m an fo r th e U.N. H igh Commissioner for Refugees.

“ The ev idence is m ounting there will be some basis for the Fed raising in terest rates. The econom y is p e rfo rm in g w ell, but there may be a logic in say­in g th is is th e tim e to le a n against the tide,” he said.

PORT-AU-PRINCE Police chief Michel Francois

KITCHEN AYE LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Leaving the unknown alone A liberal education meanstaking responsibility for itW hat m akes humanity so intriguing? Why

do ch am p ag n e bubb les tickle your nose? Why are we the way we are? W hat color will my daughter’s eyes be? W here do we, do I, fit in? How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? These questions, and others like them , a re the questions th a t philoso­phers, theologians, scientists, and other men and w om en of thought have contem plated for c e n tu rie s . Today q u an tu m p hysic ists attem pt to simplify the universe in which we reside to one single, beautiful equation. One relationship that would embody the answ ers to all these questions. The yin and the yang all rolled up into one polynomial.

Frank Cristinzio

Hopefully, through this “polynomial of life” we can come to a b e tte r understand ing of the nature of the universe, the origin of the galaxy and of the hum an species. So far they have come pretty close. The question is do we really w ant to go all the way?

We’re all scientists in one way or another. We are all blessed with trem endous powers of observation. We’re able to take in all the sounds and sights and smells around us and catalog them for fu tu re reference to infer connections betw een them and other sights and sounds and in doing so m ake conclu­sions about the world around us.

When Galileo proved tha t the earth w asn’t the cen ter of the universe, th a t it w as not even the center of our own galaxy, it was a trem endous blow to our pride, as well as our way of thinking. We went from claiming cen­trality in the grand scheme of things to being a tin y sp e c k o f im p e r fe c tio n in an in ­finitesim al and continually expanding un i­verse. Maybe it w as th en th a t we becam e determ ined to discover exactly w here we are in th is in f in ite la n d sc a p e . W e’ve n e v e r looked back.

Yet, tha t’s precisely w hat we did do, look back. Scientists began to look back into the earliest days of the universe. They’ve gone all the way back to the last 10-43 second. Now they’re so rta ...stuck . They reached a point w here they have a cause w ithout an effect. They have to admit that perhaps the simplification toward which they are striving is not that simple, or beautiful. Because life isn’t always beautiful.

Let’s consider for a m om ent th a t maybe w e’re not supposed to know. Maybe w e’re always m eant to wonder w hat happened in the first hundredths of a second of the uni­verse’s existence. Do you w ant to know what you’re getting for Christm as, exactly w hat tom orrow will bring, when you’re going to die? No one w ants to see a movie when they already know the ending. Some things are better left unknown, lest the joy of their dis­covery be taken away.

T here a re some things w e’ll never know the answ ers to. True enlightenm ent comes w hen we keep on looking for th a t answ er. You may never find the answer, but you will learn a lot about yourself along the way.

Personally, I’d like to think that I exist in this ever expanding, tumultuously changing un iverse of ours for a purpose. Perhaps I have to adm it tha t in the grand scheme of things this purpose may not be so grand in the schem e of things. Yet in my scheme of th ings it is certa in ly g rand . B ecause as a good friend of mine often says, life is grand.

So why is life grand? Since I’m asking the questions here I’ll answ er them too. Life is g rand because we never know w hat lurks a ro u n d the co rner. I don’t really w an t to know exactly why I’m here or w hat will hap­pen nex t, or exactly how n a tu re and the world around me all fit together, because it would tarn ish the wonderful luster that not knowing these things lends to life.

1 don’t think I w ant the equation that tells me how life fits together, where the ducks go when it rains, or why nobody likes the black jelly beans. It ju st wouldn’t be as much fun. If I k n ew e x a c tly w h e re I f it in , th e re w ouldn’t be anything left to wonder about. There wouldn’t be any questions left to ask.

Frank C ristinzio is a senior. He lives in Stanford Hall.

Dear Editor:W hat is a liberal education? If you posed this question to Notre Dame

students, how many could m uster a coherent answer? Many of us enter Notre Dame hoping, that after four years, we will leave as liberally educat­ed individuals. We th ere fo re have a responsibility to offer insightfu l responses to this fundam ental question.

Before attributing the degradation of the liberal education to uninspiring professors (“A boring liberal education, ” Septem ber 28, 1994), students m ust claim partial responsibility for its apparent failure. In her column, Meaghan Smith claims that liberal education is the discovery of “w hat per­sonal knowledge can be pieced together through contact w ith diverse studies.” But it is more than this; the liberal education teaches us how to think by strictly disciplining the mind. The University is not obligated to give us anything in term s of education. It is responsible for providing an environment conducive to intellectual and spiritual exploration.

We m ust stop denying or a t least ignoring the p lain tru th : we a re responsible for our own education. Despite our valiant a ttem pt to deny and/or mitigate the harshness of reality, the intellectual freedom allowed by “contact with diverse studies ” cannot be divorced from responsibility. This denial m anifests itself in the popular yet insidious dichotomy between the lecture hall and the residence hall—the classroom and our real lives. There exists a dangerous tendency around campus to believe that learning occurs exclusively in the classroom. Any honest professor would respond by saying tha t knowledge is earned by thoughtful engagem ent of a text outside of class. A meaningful classroom conversation, based upon careful study and m editation upon a text by professor and student, functions as a point of real life intersection, not departure. So before bemoaning the m is­erable state of the liberal education, we must ask ourselves if we are living up to our end of the bargain.

Band de Soleil’s debut C.D. exhibits new rock focus

By ROB ADAMSMusic Critic

Although The Indigo Girls are the band th a t everyone w ants to see tom orrow night, two opening acts will also be pro­viding en terta inm en t: Band de Soleil and Janet McGlaughlin.Band de Soleil’s form ation in June of

1993, took place in Atlanta ending the so m e w h a t su ccessfu l solo c a re e r of M ichelle Malone, who had previously released three solo albums by the age of 26.These days, however, she is joined by

D anny B igay on d ru m s a n d M ike Snow den on bass leaving h e r ea rlie r acoustic stuff behind and focusing more on improving her guitar expertise and writing some hard-edged rock-n-roll. M alone, singer, songw riter, and gui­

ta ris t, is the driving force behind the band’s debut, Redemption Dream.

“When does the nightm are stop/When does the dream begin,” asks a desper­ate Malone on the title track . Funky w a h -w a h p e d a l rh y th m b e g in s “R edem ption D ream ,” the track title ,

also the open ing song of the a lbum , le a d in g in to th e p o w erfu l vo ca ls of Malone — scorching through a Southern fried rock extravaganza.“G a th e rin g ” is a soft, soulful ballad

concerning, ironically enough with such a s u b tle b e a t , a c a ll fo r e v e ry o n e , reg a rd less of race , c lass o r creed , to com e to g e th e r and p a rty w ith them . Quick pickings on an acoustic guitar are smoothed out over the laid-back drum arrangem ent.

A psychedelic keyboard in troduction o p en s th e so n g “H ollow D ay .” The dram a is heightened as the end-of-the- road guitar riffs surface and the cym­bals rise and even tually lead to . . . M alone. H er su ltry voice com pletely m akes the song an extrem ely w o rth ­while listening experience.Band de Soleil is one band that will def­

initely sound exciting live. Their thick riffs and traditional rock arrangem ents will only serve to challenge Malone and her wonderful vocals. More than likely, she will handle the task with fluid con­sistency, proven by her successful past experience

Bell balked at Kansas, one of the m ost successful p rogram s in the country in recent years and Gottlieb said no to UCLA w here he could have played in f ro n t of m om and dad every night.

But comparisions, particu lar­ly to Keith Tower, are unfair to a th le te s w ith a full season of high school competition ahead.

“ We try to sp en d as m uch time as we can, or a consider­able am ount of time, with our players in the preseason trying to school them on how to a d ­dress the press and how to in­telligently answ er questions,” Cooper said Tuesday during his w eek ly n ew s c o n fe re n c e . “ C erta in ly , I d o n ’t th ink any coach likes to see any kind of bu lletin -board m ateria l as far as the other football team .”

Tepper is a prime example.“ I’m really disappointed that

he said tha t,” Tepper said in a conference call about Howard’s rem ark. “ I w asn’t aw are of that until he apologized to the team after practice (Monday). I don’t ’ th ink it w as a very team -con­scious comment. I think it was a com m ent out of frustra tion . And the only thing he can guar­antee is the way h e ’s going to p lay . B ut he is n o t th e spokesman for how our team is going to play.”

After m aking the guaran tee, H ow ard ad d ed , “ Hey, if you w ant to tell them that, you can tell them , but th a t’s my s ta te ­m ent. T h a t’s the way I feel. It

might be locker room m aterial or whatever, but we’ll win this w eekend.”

Cooper said he w asn’t sure if he would clip Howard’s words and put them up in the locker room. He said it m ight not be necessary.

“Our players down here have obviously h ea rd about it,” he said.

Neither team is in a position to guaran tee much based on last S a tu r d a y ’s p e r fo rm a n c e s . Illinois (2-2 overall and 0-1 in the Big Ten), leading the nation in d e fe n s e , lo s t a t hom e to Purdue 22-16.

T he B u ck ey es h a d b e a te n Northwestern the last 18 m eet­ings by an average score of 45- 10.

“ It m ight have been an ugly victory, bu t it w as a v ictory,” Cooper said. “ I’ve been coach­ing long enough to realize that you take ’em any way you can get ’em. We dodged a bu lle t, sure, but we still won the ball- g a m e .”

It w as C ooper, sp e a k in g a t Ohio S ta te ’s football b a n q u e t last December, who guaranteed th e B u ck ey es w o u ld b e a t w h o m e v e r th e y p la y e d in a bowl game.

NCAA coaches address sportsmanshipBy JIM O ’CONNELLAsaociated Press

HOUSTON The N ational A ssociation of

Basketball Coaches started the discussion about sportsm anship long before its issues sum m it began Tuesday.

The o rg an iza tio n ’s p u b lica ­tion , “ C ourtside ,” had a full- page color cover photo of two coaches shaking hands with the head lin e : "S p o rtsm an sh ip . A quest to restore college basket­ball’s good nam e."

The headline was brought up

a few tim es in the 90-m inute session on sportsm anship and ethical conduct.

“ I have a problem w ith the headline on our pub lica tion ," Air Force coach Reggie Minton said. “ It should say re ta in not restore our sport’s good nam e.”

Taunting, fighting and crowd conduct and con tro l all w ere brought up and discussed, but M inton w as the sp e a k e r who sum m ed it up for the coaches and a d m in is tra to rs in a t te n ­dance.

"Everybody better understand sportsm ansh ip is p a r t of your

job, no one else 's,” he said. “ It is com m on sense, good taste , b e n c h d e c o ru m , a ll th o se things. You m ust dem and, ex­pect and set certain goals and tak e n o th ing less ju s t as you would on the court."

The issues sum m it w as the second held by the NABC and the first a ttended by its black m em bers as the Black Coaches Association called for a boycott of th e in a u g u ra l m e e tin g in Charlotte, N.C. The leadership of the BCA m et instead with the Black Congressional Caucus to voice displeasure over the loss

of a scholarship and academ ic en tran ce req u irem en ts based on standardized test scores.

Initial eligibility will be a ses­sion topic W ednesday and it’s expec ted to be w e ll-a tten d ed and heated.

“We will have a written posi­tion on initial eligibility,” NABC executive d irec to r Jim Haney said. “ It’s a subject that the o r­g a n iz a tio n fe e ls s tro n g ly about."

Missing from the discussion on sp o rtsm an sh ip w as any m en ­tio n on c o ach vs. co ach b e ­h a v io r . I t s e e m e d lo g ic a l it

would come up following a sea­son that saw a num ber of con­fro n ta tio n s b e tw een coaches rep ea ted over and over again on highlight shows.

" I w as s u rp r is e d it d id n ’t come up and I w as su rp rised the role of officials w asn’t ad ­dressed ," Haney said. “This is a topic th a t has so m uch gray area. I was waiting for an ad ­m inistrator to bring up the sub­ject of coaches but it never did. We w ill go b ack an d d ra f t a gam e m a n a g e m e n t m a n u a l with recom m endations in these areas."

"I could have spent my summer on the beach,

but I decided it would be better spent in the field."

“T h ere ’s no substitute for real experience. At least, that’s my opinion.

And it’s obviously the opinion at Ernst & Young. My nam e is Craig

Hallenbeck, and I’ve just com pleted what I can honestly say is one of

the most satisfying and growing experiences of my life: A summer

internship at Ernst & Young Chicago.

It lasted only three months, bu t in that short time, I gained

more technical know-how and business savvy than I ever could in a

classroom. But that’s only part of it. T h e opportunity to work side by

side, out in the field, with E&Y professionals, and to deal directly with

clients from several large companies, instilled in m e the feeling that I

belong here; that this is exactly what I want to do. I t’s something I was

never completely sure of until I arrived here.

At every turn I felt as if my opinion counted for something.

Everyone I m et encouraged m e to learn as much as I could, to take the

initiative in finding original solutions to problems that I hadn’t known

existed. From working on audits for manufacturing firms to researching

the casino industry for Special Services, I discovered that no solution is

a hundred percent infallible. Every person at E&Y continuously strives

to find one better.

This ‘find a better way’ attitude seems to perm eate even the

most personal aspects of the firm. Special arrangements and flex sched­

ules for em ployees are commonplace. T h e people at E&Y work very

hard. But it’s understood that each of them has a life outside the office.

Adjustments more for personal needs are viewed as a resource, not a

liability. How many firms have the vision to realize this, and more

importantly, act on it?

I guess you can tell I ’m impressed. Everything I saw had a

positive effect on me. And if I had to make the choice all over again, rest

assured,my sunscreen would stay exactly where it’s been all summer:

Sitting comfortably in my cabinet at home.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL S T . MARY'S VOLLEYBALL

Despite Hawkeye woes, Fry optimistic

Belles dumped in five games

By GREG SMITHAssociated Press

IOWA CITY, IowaAnyone thinking Iowa football

co ach H ayden Fry w ould be glum after the Hawkeyes’ third s t r a ig h t lo ss la s t w e e k e n d should have been at Tuesday’s news conference.

H e’s no t exactly a th re a t to David Letterm an, but Fry was in an uncommonly jovial mood as he poked fun at columnists, beat reporters, players — even his choice of ties.

“ I h a d to b o rro w one of Philip’s ties this m orning,” he said, referring to sports infor­m a tio n d ire c to r Phil H addy. “ It’s got flowers on it. I wanted a daisy; forgot my earring,” Fry said.

A rep o rte r asked him about S atu rday’s contest against the Hoosiers of Indiana.

“H ooters?” Fry said.Well, then, w hat about Bobby

Diaco, the team ’s leading tack­ier who has had to play nearly e v e ry dow n b e c a u s e th e H aw k ey es a re th in a t l in e ­backer?

“ He’s got Italian blood lines. Every time I walk in the locker room I look to see if he’s got his violin case or no t,” the coach said.

D o n ’t fe e l b a d , B obby. M ich igan ru n n in g b ack Tim B ia k a b u tu k a go t th e sam e treatm ent when Fry referred to h im as , “ th a t Ir ish m a n , you can’t pronounce his nam e.”

W hen Fry m oved on to the su b jec t of football, one topic w as con sid erab ly less funny: defense.

Although the Hawkeyes’ pass d e fe n se is fo u r th in th e Big Ten, its rushing defense is last, allowing 217.6 yards per game. W hat’s worse is Iowa defenders a re second-to-last in the con­fe rence in tu rn o v e r m arg ins, ahead of only Minnesota.

In five games, Iowa has seven takeaw ays, including five fum­bles and two interceptions. The to p te a m , M ich ig an , h a s 13 takeaways.

“ W e’ve got to s ta r t getting m o re tu rn o v e rs on d e fen se . This is the w orst team I’ve had defensively as fa r as g e ttin g tu rn o v e rs ,” Fry said . “ W e’re not creating them.

“W e’re fighting for our lives try ing to survive ra th e r th an knocking the ball loose.... We h a v e n ’t g o tte n a ro u n d to c o a c h in g k n o c k in g th e b a ll loose yet. W e’re still trying to teach them how to tackle.”

The Hawkeyes also have given the ball away 13 times, six on fum bles an d seven in te rc e p ­tio n s by q u a r te r b a c k R yan Driscoll.

“Frankly, w e’ve stopped our­selves as m uch as anybody,” Fry said. “ If we don’t quit m ak­in g c r i t ic a l tu rn o v e r s a n d p en a ltie s , w e ’re no t going to w in.”

T urnovers and p en a ltie s — Io w a is th e m o st p e n a liz e d team in the Big Ten with 41 — h a v e led to lo sse s to P en n S ta te , O regon an d M ichigan after opening the year with vic­to rie s over C en tra l M ichigan and Iowa State.

Injuries forced Fry into sta rt­ing three new defensive players in last w eek’s loss to Michigan.

This loss brings Saint Mary’s to a 7-6 reco rd bu t the team w ill a g re e th a t , d e s p ite th e score, the game was not a total loss.

“I think it was the best m atch w e’ve played, ” said freshm an Kelly Meyer. “The ta len t level was pretty even so it was a toss up as to who would win.”

The experience on the o ther

Gordon remembers kick0 COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Miami’s Sapp will be key against FSUBy STEVEN W INEAssociated Press

CORAL GABLES, Fla.W a rre n Sapp say s F lo r id a

S ta te n e v e r h a d a c h a n c e against the Miami Hurricanes.

The ju n io r defensive tack le and Outland Trophy contender was once a top prep prospect so u g h t by b o th sc h o o ls . He chose Miami and hopes to pnake Florida State regret his decision Saturday w hen the two team s meet in the Orange Bowl.

Sapp grew up in Plymouth, an u n in c o rp o ra te d to w n n e a r Orlando w ith ju s t one re s ta u ­ra n t and 3,200 re s id en ts . He m ad e a r e c r u i t in g t r ip to Tallahassee, then elim inated it from contention.

“ I didn’t like it at all,” Sapp sa id T u e sd a y . “ I 'm fro m a small town, so I didn’t w ant to go to a small town. T hat’s like being at home. ...

“ I’m an o ra n g e -a n d -g re e n m an, not a garnet-and-gold . I don ’t like a sp ea r on my h e l­met; I like that ‘U.’ I like sunny w eather; it’s cold up th ere in T a llahassee . 1 d o n ’t like any­thing about it. T here’s nothing to like.”

While Sapp might be guilty of u n n e c e ssa ry ro u g h n ess , p a r ­t ic u la r ly c o n c e rn in gTallahassee’s w eather, Florida State coach Bobby Bowden has only good things to say about the H urricanes’ star.

“ W hen you look a t th e U niversity of Miami, the first guy that catches your attention is No. 76 ,” Bowden said. “ He definitely belongs in the honor roll of the many great defensive linemen they’ve had. He might

be better than all of them .”Miami defensive tackles in the

p as t decade inc luded Russell Maryland, Cortez Kennedy and the late Jerom e Brown, each a f irs t- ro u n d d ra f t p ick in th e NFL.

Sapp, fast and overpowering a t 6-foot-3 and 284 pounds, is just as dom inant as his p rede­cessors. This season he has 29 tackles, three sacks, one fumble fo rc e d an d tw o fu m b le s r e ­covered for 13th-ranked Miami (3-1).

“ He’s kind of a starting point of their defense,” Bowden said. “ He’s the guy th a t can intim i­date, the guy tha t can destroy, the guy th a t can ru in a gam e plan. You’d better block him.”

Sapp has been double-team ed most of season and invites the same challenge against Florida S ta te , b e c a u s e he k n o w s it w ould m ean one less b locker for his team m ates to deal with.

“Go right ahead and double­team m e,” Sapp said. “ I’ve got­ten pretty accustomed to going against two people. I know how to get out of it.”

But while Sapp sounds confi­dent and slams the Seminoles, he a lso r e s p e c ts th e m . T he M iam i-F lo rida S ta te gam e is always circled on his calendar.

“ T h e re ’s no t a day I d o n ’t th ink about i t ,” he said . “ It’s w hat you live for. It’s w hat men are made of. You have to be a re a l m an to step on the field an d go fo u r q u a r t e r s w ith Florida State.”

Of course, the Seminoles could have eliminated Sapp as a con­cern by luring him north with a scholarship.

BOSTONThey knew David Gordon in a

small Wisconsin town where he worked at a sum m er camp for kickers. He’s seen his kick re ­played maybe 10 times on tele­vision.

Now, h e a d in g in to B oston C o lleg e ’s re m a tc h S a tu rd a y w ith e ig h th - r a n k e d N o tre D am e, G ordon is re liv ing his 4 1 -y a rd , la s t-p la y field goal that ruined the Fighting Irish’s n a tio n a l cham pionship hopes last year.

He’d ju s t as soon slip out of the spotlight.“ I just answ er questions about

th e gam e an d w h a t w en t on last year,” he says. “But when I step on the p ractice field this year, all I th ink about is this year and p rep arin g for Notre Dame.”

Notre Dame had just come off a d ra m a tic w in over F lo rida S ta te a n d re p la c e d th e Seminoles as the nation’s top- ran k ed team . Boston College, the Fighting Irish’s next oppo­nen t, w as expected to be less competitive, especially at South Bend, Ind.

But the Eagles led 38-17 be­fore a fourth -quarter rally put N o tre D am e a h e a d 3 9 -3 8 . Boston College got the ball back at its 25-yard line with 1:01 left

Associated Press

MIAMIAt least two conference com­

missioners in the bowl alliance w ant the Orange Bowl Classic to move to Joe Robbie Stadium so that the game is assured of a neutral site.

The University of Miami plays its home gam es in the Orange

and moved to the Notre Dame 24 with five seconds remaining.

“ The crow d really w a sn ’t a fa c to r th e r e , " G ordon sa id . “ W h erev er I k ick, I’m rea lly good at blocking out the crowd and any distractions.

“ W h e th e r I’m k ick ing an e x tra p o in t o r a field goal, I trea t every kick the same. I go out there and say, T w ant to be o n e-fo r-o n e . I w an t to m ake th is k ick .’ I don’t th ink about the consequences.”

N o tre D am e w as 10-0 an d playing its last regular-season gam e. Boston College w as 7-2 and on a seven-gam e winning streak . With five seconds left, the walk-on placekicker whose f a th e r , R ic h a rd , ow ns th e Hartford W halers, walked onto the hallow ed ground of Notre Dame Stadium.

Q uarterback Glenn Foley set th e b a ll dow n. G ordon, w ho m ade ju s t 7 -o f - l l field goals last year, blasted it through the uprigh ts w ith plenty to spare , giving Boston College a 41-39 win.

He was an instant celebrity.“This sum m er I worked at a

camp in River Falls, Wis., and it’s am azing how the cam pers re a c te d to w ard m e ,” G ordon s a id . “ I d id n ’t r e a l iz e how m uch national attention I c re ­ated over this one kick.

“My life hasn’t really changed too m uch,” he said. “ I’ve kept

Bowl and has played in the New Y ear’s n igh t gam e four tim es since 1984.

Commissioners say the Orange Bowl Committee m ust decide by n e x t W ed n esd ay w h e th e r to move the gam e in 1997, and they are expecting the commit­tee to do so. Committee m em ­bers have scheduled a vote on the question for Tuesday.

pretty much the sam e low pro­file tha t I’ve always had. (The kick) has helped me on the field as far as being a better p lace­kicker. I’ve worked a lot harder this year (on) improving my ac­curacy and distance.

“Last year I felt like 45 yards w as a very com fortable range for m e,” he added. “Now I feel like 50 yards for me is like an extra point.”

Gordon has m ade ju st one of th ree field goals this year, but coach Dan H enning is happy w ith the senior. He points out th a t one o f th e m is se s w as blocked and the other came af­t e r a p e n a lty n u llif ie d a successful kick.

“ I w ish I could h av e m ore field-goal attem pts to prove I’m n o t ju s t a o n e -k ic k g u y ," Gordon said.

“David Gordon is the kind of k icker I lik e ," H enning said . “ He d o e s n ’t say m u c h . He doesn’t look like he gets ruffled. He d o esn ’t seem to have any highs and lows. ... He’s one of the m ost ev en -k ee led peop le I’ve ever m et.”

“ I don’t think (the kick) has a ffec ted him a t a l l ," E ag les t ig h t end Pete M itchell sa id . “ He know s th a t the situ a tio n m ight com e up ag a in and he needs to make it again in order to keep that reputation going.”

A lot has changed since tha t famous kick.

“This is not a minor issue — it has to do w ith n eu tra lity and f a irn e s s ," sa id Roy K ram er, c o m m iss io n e r o f th e Southeastern Conference.

Since 1984, Miami has won all four of its games in the Orange Bowl C lassic by a co m b in ed score of 96-47 , w ith th re e of the victories clinching a nation­al championship.

If a majority of the 198 voting com m ittee m em bers choose to stay in the O range Bowl after its s ta d iu m c o n tra c t e x p ire s Jan. 2, 1996, the game could be dropped from the alliance and replaced by the Gator Bowl.

“The key to all of this is w e’re no longer in control of this situ­a t io n ," sa id K eith T r ib b le , Orange Bowl Classic executive director.

Irish injuries demand leadership changesBy TIM SHERMANAssistant Sports Editor

Senior leadership, experience, and ability to protect the ball. These are th ree of the many

qualities that Notre Dame head coach Lou Holtz feels are vital to his team ’s success.Lee B ecton and Ray Z e lla rs

Becton or Ray Zellars will be able to play,” Holtz announced. “Lee thought he could practice (on Monday), but you could see he was greatly handicapped. It may be a week or two before he is ready and Ray w asn ’t even out on the field.”If that turns out to be true, the

“Going into a hostile environ­ment, you’d like to have a little b it m o re s e n io r le a d e r s h ip , named from those people hold­ing the ball,” Holtz said.H ow ever, H oltz h a s b e e n

have been play ing very , very well,” Holtz said, nam ing Oliver G ibson, B rian H am ilton , and Justin Goheen, am ong o thers. “Those seniors have really been there each and every day and have provided great leadership for our football team thus far.”In a d d re s s in g th e B oston

College game a bit more specif­ically , Holtz su rp r is in g ly , or maybe not so surprisingly if you con sid er the so u rce , avoided the topic of revenge as a moti­vating factor.“Our football team will trea t it

The Notre Dame m en’s soccer players are packing their bags in preparation for their trip to Illinois w here they play Loyola tonight a t 6:30 p.m.
