The grant was presented to University President Father Edward Malloy at a ceremony formally opening the new stu dent computer laboratory in the basement of LaFortune Student Center. The grant was presented by James Buckley, vice president and general manager of central operations for Apple Computer, Inc. “What’s being done here at Notre Dame, with the faculty work stations, the labs for the students ... I think that Notre Dame is at the leading edge of what’s being done with com puters in the United States," Buckley said. “We’re really excited here about the opportunity we have to implement our $18 million computer plan, to provide accesss to computing of the highest quality to students and faculty, to staff and adminis tration," Malloy said.

Several other large carriers considered whether to boost discount fares, too. Competitors of Continental, a subsidiary of Texas Air Corp., were expected to follow suit eventually. “I would be surprised if they didn’t,” said Helane Becker, an airline analyst at Shearson Lehman Hutton Inc. Spokesmen for United Air lines and Delta Air Lines said that the carriers were studying Continental’s move and consid ering whether to follow it. Northwest Airlines partially followed the action, changing around 30,000 MaxSaver fares between different cities, said Northwest spokesman Red Tyler in Eagan, Minn. The Con tinental changes, he said, in volve more than 100,000 such fares. “We continue to review the others,” Tyler said. “There is still indecision in the industry.” Estonian parliament declares sovereignty Associated Press TALLINN, U.S.S.R.- The Es tonian parliament on Wednes day declared the tiny Baltic republic “sovereign” with the right to veto Soviet laws. Before the vote, deputies from the Communist Party and government of Estonia held a debate in which they detailed the republic’s need to control land, factories and laws, saying centralized control from Moscow had been ruinous for both the economy and envi ronment. The vote on the “declaration of sovereignty” was 258-1, with five abstentions. It came after a vote on related amendments to the Estonian constitution that passed 254-7. The amendments include one declaring that Soviet laws will take effect in Estonia “upon their registration by the Presidium of the Supreme So Houston based Continental notified travel agents on Tues day night and Wednesday that it would revamp its MaxSaver program to base fares on the length of a flight. Competition on individual routes, not mileage, had determined the fares in the past. Under the new formula, scheduled to take effect Nov. 23, MaxSaver fares for longer flights generally would be raised while those for shorter hauls would mostly be reduced. The changes appear to have the effect of raising roughly two-thirds of Continental’s MaxSaver fares and cutting the remaining third or so. They fol low by a few days plans in itiated by Continental and matched by other major air lines to drop another category of discount air fares- the “junk fares” available four to seven days before a flight that are used mainly by business travelers. Like Continental’s, most of Northwest’s fare changes were increases, Tyler said. Northwest so far has only matched Continental in the markets where the two airlines compete directly, he said; in other markets, Northwest will wait to see whether the other carriers follow Continental’s lead. The hikes in both advance- purchase MaxSavers and last- minute junk fares reflect the recent trend toward higher air fares propelled by increasing passenger traffic. “Consumers definitely are paying higher prices,” said Andrew Geller, an airline analyst at Provident National Bank in Philadelphia. Airline fares are up an average 8 percent from the same point in 1987, he noted. viet of the Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic in a way reg ulated by it.” That somewhat vague wording was apparently the result of a last minute com promise. The other four amendments add human and civil rights guarantees, claim the land and natural resources of the republic as the property of Es tonia rather than of the “state,” and guarantee the right to hold private property, be negotiated with Moscow to “determine the further status of Estonia in the composition of the Soviet Union.” The passage of such measures by a government body is an unprecedented act of defiance toward central aut horities in a country still feeling its way through Presi dent Mikhail Gorbachev’s policy of “glasnost” or open ness. Malloy looks towards future in St. Edward’s Hall Forum By NATASHA WILSON Senior Staff Reporter University President Ed ward Malloy shared his thoughts and insights into the future of Notre Dame during last night’s St. Ed ward’s Hall Forum. “One of the great chal lenges we face is how to preserve the quality of teaching at the same time we enhance the infrastruc ture of support for education in general,” Malloy said. The university, he said, is encouraging professors to excel in teaching, research and publication and service and trying to recruit more quality professors. As recommended by the recent university task force on teaching, the administra tion is trying to identify the departments which warrant an increase in professors, the president said. Over the last five years Notre Dame has added 100 faculty members to the overall faculty without in creasing the size of the stu dent body in an attempt to reduce the teaching load of faculty in certain depart ments. The professors would thus have more opportunity for research, publication and sabbatical time, Malloy claimed. In an effort to diversify the faculty the university has tried to recruit more minorities and females, he added. Malloy cited the improve ment of the computerization on campus as another priority of the administra tion. “We have a $18 million plan of which will include computerizations, resources for the faculty, a significant improvement in the local capacity of the mainframe computer.” “We’ve also tried to con centrate on our resources in the library. We’ve had to build up, which is a very ex pensive proposition, the periodicals and books in given areas,” said the uni versity president. “Anot her area we are trying to work on is facilities and the laboratory space.” The ad dition to Nieuwland Science Hall, he contends, will sig nificantly improve class room lab space for the physics classes. “We hope to be able within two years to break ground for a new classroom facility (in the Green Field area) if see FORUM, page 6

Darts: the ultimate game for the couch potato

I fell in love the o ther day.Not w ith a person, not w ith a pet or a city

o r a place.I fell in love w ith the g re a te s t g am e ever

c rea ted : d arts .I t began one foggy, ra in y night over Fall

B reak . A friend and I w ere v isiting the U niversity of Illinois, in C ham paign. We dashed into a local w atering hole to get out of the storm . As we passed by the gentlem an a t the door who w elcom ed us, we cam e upon the sight of th a t round piece of corkboard th a t would change our lives. We felt d raw n tow ard it, as if it w ere a p a r t of our destiny.

D arts offers all of the th rills of a rea l sport. The com petition can be intense, w ith the sm all, le thal p ro jectiles flying through the a ir a t trem endous speeds. The danger of in ju ry is ju s t as g re a t as th a t involved in m ore glam orous sports, such as ski jum ping and auto racing . Since the p laying field is usually the back room of a bar, the danger of an innocent b y stander w andering into the field of fire is g rea t. The th row er m ust also contend w ith the very re a l possibility of a stra in ed a rm or a tired w rist.

The skills of the p layers a re am azing. A good “ d a r te r” has to contend with m any outside influences which m ight potentially prove fa ta l to his gam e. Wind, hum idity and a m y riad of o ther n a tu ra l fac to rs all m ust be accounted for before the m om ent of re lease .

O ther, m an-m ade hazzards also affect the throw . P r im a ry am ong these is the alcoholic haze in which m ost d a r t p layers find them selves, but one m ust also account for the slippery floor of the b a r, c ig a re tte sm oke stinging the eyes and popcorn kernels in your tee th throw ing one’s balance off th a t little bit w hich m ight m ake all the difference in the world.

But don’t let th a t sc a re you. D arts is the u ltim ate lazy-m an’s gam e. Think about it for a second. The only possible exertions involved a re throw ing a d a r t and putting down the beer which is m ost likely in your hand betw een throw s.

The only flaw in the gam e, and one w hich I believe m ust soon be rectified if I am to continue on m y quest for the N ational D arts Cham pionship, is the fac t th a t som eone m ust pull the d a rts out of the board. This unfortunate p a r t of the g am e involves som e poor soul, a lread y exhausted from having throw n th ree d a rts , w alking all the w ay over to the d a r t board (a t least 8 feet aw ay!) and perform ing the H erculean ta sk of rem oving the d a rts from the board.

D arts is by no m eans a sim ple gam e. Indeed, th ere a re m any com plex va rie tie s of the gam e, enough to sa tisfy the m ost d iscrim inating of g am ers. The basic varia tion is p lain , sim ple d a rts , w ith the individual p layers try ing to score the m ost points.

MattGallagherAssistant News Editor

O ther versions of the basic gam e include 301 (counting down from 301 to zero; you m ust reach zero exactly to w in), baseball (d ifferen t a re a s rep resen t base hits, doubles, trip les, hom ers, e tc .) , and a bunch of o ther gam es which a re fa r too com plicated for me to understand .

The com puter revolution has hit the gam e of d a rts full force, and I for one believe this is a change for the be tte r. E lectron ic d a r t boards a re springing up across the nation. These boards, rep lacing the com m on corkboard ones, have two trem endous advan tages, both of which the couch potatos am ongst us respect and app recia te .

F irs t, it is now possible to throw a d a r t and score points w ithout the d a r t sticking into the d a rtb o ard (I guess th e re is som e com puter sensor which th inks the d a r t s tuck). This not only allows one to score points on a weak throw , but also allows a m uch easie r d a rt-re triev a l process, as the d a rts which don’t stick invariab ly wind up rig h t in front of your feet a fte r bouncing off the board.

The second revolu tionary bit of p rogress the electronic d a r t board has brought about involves the en tire scorekeeping process. It is no longer n ecessary th a t a p layer be ab le to add and su b trac t in o rd er to play. Indeed, I believe th a t the whole m ath em atica l aspect of the gam e scared m any people aw ay. Now th a t th is educational im pedim ent has been rem oved, I an tic ipate a w ave of d a r t h y ste ria sw eeping the nation.

“ I think th ey ’re still in negotiations. I ’ve urged them to reach a com prom ise on the ir ow n,” Bayh said a t a S tatehouse news conference.

“ If we reach the organization day and s ta te governm ent is in danger of becom ing dead ­locked. . .1 will have to give serious thought to tak ing som e

action ,” he said.However, B ayh said h e ’s not

su re w hat action he could legally take. His law yers a re re search in g th a t, he said.

The 100-member House is evenly divided betw een the two political p a rtie s for the firs t tim e in h istory. Both the R e­publican and D em ocratic caucuses have nom inated th e ir own cand idates for speaker, the ch a m b e r’s m ost powerful position.

Bayh, in his role as sec re ta ry of s ta te , will call the House into session for its o rganization day next T uesday and p reside over the election of the speaker.

House D em ocratic leader M ichael Phillips, D-Boonville, has pred ic ted he will be elected. Rep. P au l Man- nw eiler, the Indianapolis R e­publican who w as the speaker in the la s t session, c la im s he has 50 solid votes in his caucus.

B ayh said he h as consulted w ith both leaders, u rg ing them to reach an accord by organ i­zation day.

M annw eiler has suggested a pow er-sharing a rran g em en t th a t would equally divide com ­m ittee cha irm ansh ips and give each p a rty num erica l equality on each com m ittee.

SCOTT, A rk.- N ational G uardsm en helped keep o rder W ednesday a fte r up to 10 to r­nadoes churned through A rkansas, killing six people, dam aging scores of hom es and businesses and tem porarily knocking out pow er to 16,000 custom ers.

The tw isters destroyed or darpaged 240 hom es and mobile hom es and eight businesses, said G ary Talley, spokesm an for the s ta te Office of E m e r­gency Services. No m onetary e stim a te of the d am age was availab le W ednesday.

Seven counties w ere declared d isas te r a re a s by Gov. Bill Clinton, who set aside $350,000 in s ta te em ergency funds.

At least 49 to rnadoes touched down in A rkansas, M issouri, K ansas, Illinois and Iowa on T uesday night. A seventh p e r­son w as killed in southw est M issouri. The sam e storm system left th ree people dead

in road acciden ts in Colorado and w as blam ed for the e lectrocution death of a w om an in Illinois.

The N ational W eather S er­vice said the sto rm s w ere caused by a cold front colliding w ith w arm , m oist air.

“ We saw it com ing, but there w as nothing we could do,” said Police Chief D arnell Scott of the cen tra l A rkansas town of Lonoke, w here two people w ere killed and about 30 houses w ere repo rted heavily dam aged .

At the height of the storm , 16,000 custom ers of A rkansas Pow er & Light Co. lost pow er for d ifferen t periods, said AP&L spokesm an Je ro l G ar­rison. By W ednesday m orning, only about 1,000 custom ers still had no pow er, he said.

About th ree dozen N ational G uardsm en w ere called out for sev era l hours W ednesday to look for surv ivors and keep non-residents aw ay from hom es in Pu lask i County. More g uardsm en perfo rm ed s im ila r duties in Van B uren County.

K eegan said th a t Apple donated a n um ber of “ seed ” M acintosh system s to N otre D am e sev e ra l y e a rs ago.

“ The idea of th is p ro g ram is to, w ithin th ree y ea rs , put an Apple M acintosh onto the desks of 80 pe rcen t of the 700-member facu lty ,” K eegan said.

K eegan said the $450,000 g ra n t rep resen ted equipm ent which would be d istribu ted over the re s t of th is school yea r.

“ At the end of this y e a r we will look and eva lu a te w hat we need to do” to com plete the pro­g ram , B uckley said . “ M aybe m ore facu lty investm ent, m aybe m ore s tuden t invest­m en t” would be n ecessary on A pple’s p a r t to com plete the p ro g ram , B uckley said.

“ W e’re hoping we can cap ­tu re the m inds and h ea rts of the s tuden t of N otre D am e with the Apple M acintosh com put­e r ,” Buckley added.

B uckley sa id Apple w as w orking w ith the U niversity to in c rease the ava ilab ility of M acintosh com pu ters to s tu ­dents on cam pus.

Apple C om puter is receiv ing no financial benefit from the g ran t, Buckley said. “ We don’t get any additional financial in­centive from donating these com puters to a school versus giving them to a com pany ,” Buckley said.

He added th a t, p rio r to the 1986 changes in the tax laws, Apple would have received a tax b reak from such a dona­tion. H ow ever, th is is no longer the case.

The o ther purpose of the c e r­em ony w as the ribbon-cutting cerem ony for the new M acin­tosh lab o ra to ry in the b ase ­m ent of L aF ortune . M alloy of­ficially opened the labora to ry , which has been open for s tu ­dent use since F a ll B reak.

“ The opening of the L aF o r­tune studen t c lu ste r is our op­portun ity to m ake com puters m ore accessib le to the student body,” said D onald Spicer, a s ­s is tan t provost for U niversity com puting and d irec to r of the Office of U niversity com put­ing.

The c lu ste r contains 50 M acintosh com puters, Spicer noted. It is open from 8 a .m . to 1 a .m . M onday through T hursday , w ith sh o rte r hours on w eekends.

Cowdery noted th a t the cen­te r is staffed by 23 students. “ The lab has been running for the la s t two or th ree w eeks. . It has been p rac tica lly full ever since it opened,” Cowdery said.

Daniels favored as successor to QuayleAssociated Press

IN D IA NAPOLIS- Mitch D aniels J r . , p residen t of the Hudson Institu te and a fo rm er aide to P residen t R eagan and Sen. R ichard L ugar, R-Ind., is the leading cand idate to fill Vice P resident-elect Dan Q uayle’s Senate seat, a repo rt b roadcast W ednesday said.

WISH-TV quoted a source close to Gov. R obert O rr as saying th a t if D aniels w ants the sea t, he has the support neces­sa ry to get it.

O rr, a R epublican like Quayle and L ugar, intends to m ake the appointm ent before he leaves office a t the end of the y ear and is rep laced by D em ocrat E van Bayh. Quayle, e lected vice p residen t as G eorge B ush’s running m ate, has said he will resign the sea t in tim e for O rr to fill the seat.

O rr p ress se c re ta ry Dollyne Pettingill said D aniels is one of m any people who have been m entioned for the job.

“ But the decision h asn ’t been m ade, and i t ’s not close to being m ad e ,” she said.

O rr p lanned to m eet with L ugar in W ashington today. He m et w ith Quayle th e re M onday and said upon his re tu rn to In­dianapolis, “ This is a very im ­p o rtan t appointm ent. I am tak ing it very seriously and I ’ll do the best job I can to m ake su re Ind iana is well rep re sen ted .”

D aniels could not be reached for com m ent a t his law office W ednesday evening and his hom e telephone num ber is not listed.

O ther cand ida tes for the job include Lt. Gov. John Mutz, defeated by Bayh in the guber­n a to ria l ra c e ; congressm en D an Coats and D an B urton; In ­dianapolis M ayor W illiam Hud- n u t; M arion County P rosecu to r S tephen G oldsm ith ; Edw in Sim cox, a fo rm er Ind iana Sec­re ta ry of S ta te ; and Q uayle’s wife, M arilyn.

N.H. Governor Sununu rumored as Bush’s choice for chief of staff

Associated Press

WASHINGTON- P re s id en t­e lect G eorge Bush asked aides to sign a pledge designed to p reven t leaks and conflicts of in te rest W ednesday and, leaders of his transition team refused to ta lk about the re ­ported selection of W ashington outsider John Sununu as White House chief of staff.

As the cap ita l buzzed about the choice of Sununu, the feisty, conservative governor of New H am pshire , Bush spent the day in se p a ra te m eetings w ith B ritish P rim e M inister M ar­

g a re t T ha tcher and Soviet d is­sident A ndrei Sakharov. Bush will m eet w ith T hatcher again over b reak fast T hursday.

The vice p residen t w as m um about filling the chief of s ta ff’s job, say ing “ no final decisions” had been m ade.

Sources close to Bush said, how ever, he would nam e Sununu to the post. N ext to the p resident, the chief of sta ff is the m ost pow erful person in the W hite House w ith influence over access to the Oval Office, the agenda, scheduling and other m a tte rs .

The o ther contender for the

job w as C raig F u ller, who has been B ush’s vice p residen tia l chief of sta ff for four years.

Sununu, who re tu rn ed to New H am psh ire a fte r a M onday night m eeting w ith Bush, said, “ We’ve had d iscus­sions. . .about th a t job (chief of staff) in p a r tic u la r .”

At a news conference in Con­cord, Sununu said, “ A request isn ’t a fo rm al req u est until the ta ll th in guy (Bush) sings. And the ta ll th in guy h a sn ’t sung publicly, and therefo re I ’m not going to com m ent on this in any w ay a t all.

The un iversity has a lread y broken ground for H esburgh C enter for In ternational Studies and will begin con­struction on a band p rac tice facility and a new ROTC build­ing in the n e a r future.

M alloy also add ressed the tren d s in the m ajo rs of s tu ­dents.

The enro llm en t in the College of A rts and L e tte rs , he said, has been increasing over the past few y ea rs because of the add i­tion of the A rts and L ette rs P ro ­g ram for A dm in istra to rs and the com pu ter science pro­g ram s.

While the Colleges of B usi­ness and E ng ineering have had a stab le population, the num ­b er of s tuden ts in the College of Science continues to d ecrease. The un iversity w ants to a ttra c t m ore studen ts into science m ajo rs.

“ The biggest change th a t I

foresee in academ ics sep a ra te from the com ponent p a rts of the u n d erg rad u a te education will be the concentration a t the g rad u a te level,” M alloy said.

The im provem ents in the g rad u a te school, he said, will include a b e tte r quality of s tu ­dents and a m ore a ttra c tiv e a t­m osphere in which g rad u a te students can live and learn .

“ As we m ove forw ard the quality of the g rad u a te school will enhance the repu ta tion of the u n d erg rad u a te p ro g ra m .”

At the requests of s tuden ts at the forum , M alloy d iscussed the tim ely issue of student housing.

“ I t has been the com m itm ent of the un iversity to provide housing all the u n d erg rad u a te studen ts who w an t to live on cam pus. We have had no lot­te ry for the la s t 10 y ea rs or m ore and have no intention of having a lo tte ry unless no one m oves off cam p u s,” he assu red his listeners.

“ The reaction to the percep ­tion th a t people w ere going to be forced off cam pus shows th a t th e re is som ething positive about the dorm experience th a t people would like to p re se rv e .”

The office of student

residences is p resen tly con­cen tra tin g on im proving g rad u a te housing, M alloy said.

“ We a re exploring now w ays to finance the construction of g rad u a te housing (on-cam pus) as quickly as possib le .”

The un iversity will also con­tinue the renovation of under­g rad u a te residence halls each sum m er, he added.

M alloy also gave his im p res­sions of the genera l c h a ra c te r of the un iversity and its s tu ­dents and how it m ight change in the future.

“ This is the Y ear of C ultural D iversity and I feel very good about w hat w e’ve been able to do a t d iversify ing the student body.” The un iversity p resi­dent said he hopes next y e a r ’s them e of the Y ear of the F a m ­ily will be equally successful.

Graduate students enjoy their anonymityIn recen t m onths, g rad u a te studen ts

have w ritten Viewpoint a rtic le s under the ausp ices of the G rad u ate Student Union In form ation Office. The opinion of the GSU, as suggested by these a r ­tic les, is th a t g rad u a te studen ts a re tre a te d poorly by the U niversity , and th a t m a jo r changes in U niversity policy tow ard g rad s a re needed. Some have bem oaned g rad student “ a p a th y .” R ecently , the GSU suggested th a t g rad studen ts try to becom e m ore like un­d e rg rad s . I am a m em ber of the G rad Club B oard , as well as a fo rm er m em ­b er of the G rad u a te S tudent council of the GSU, and I would like to p resen t an a lte rn a tiv e view, in favor of the s ta tu s quo.

Francis Deckg u e s t c o l u m n

The fac t is, th a t we as g rad students a re not tre a te d all th a t badly by the U niversity . T here can be no doubt th a t we a re tre a te d d ifferen tly than under g rads. Of th is we should be e te rna lly g ra tefu l. But to say th a t we a re “ second-class citizens” and such is hog- w ash.

C urren tly , the rela tionsh ip betw een the g rad studen t body and the U niver­sity can be sum m arized as follows. F irs t, the U niversity leaves the grad studen ts alone. Second, the g rad s tu ­dents leave the U niversity alone. My personal a ttitu d e is th a t w hat the Uni­vers ity does in its sp a re tim e is none of m y business. In genera l, the best th ing the U niversity can do for us is to s tay out of our h a ir and give us som e p eace and qu iet so th a t we can get our w ork done. A fter all, the g re a te s t gift the U niversity can give a g rad u a te s tu ­dent is his ticke t out of here. Of course, to m ake our s tay a t N otre D am e a little m ore en joyable , the U niversity m ight provide us w ith som e social d iversions, but it does th is quite well by providing sp ace for the G rad Club.

Som e g rad s have called for m ore “ rep re se n ta tio n ” a t the U niversity . I ’m not su re exac tly w hat th a t m eans. I have found th a t in the m a tte rs which concern m e the m ost as a g rad student, m y d ep a rtm en t rep resen ts m e quite well. F o r instance , m y d ep a rtm en t sets m y stipend level, and provides m y r e ­sea rch and office space. I t is also m y d ep artm en t w hich is responsib le for th a t huge hole w hich is being dug out­side of L aF o rtu n e , which, when filled

Doonesbury

in w ith b ricks and m o rta r, will give m y re sea rch group even m ore space. T here is p rac tica lly nothing th a t any student organization can do for m e with ten y ea rs of resolutions and m eetings th a t m y advisor or m y d ep artm en t c a n ’t do w ith a single phone call.

Som e of the g rad s I have spoken to have told m e th a t som e d ep artm en ts do not show such consideration for the ir g rad students. M any of these students have com e from positions of respect and au tho rity in the “ re a l w orld ,” and feel th a t th e ir d ep a rtm en ts tre a t them like children . Such fa ilu re to show p roper deference to the qualifications of one’s colleagues and subord inates is highly unprofessional, and would not be to le ra ted in a co rpo ra te setting . U nfor­tunate ly , th e re is p robably little th a t the U niversity can do to co rrec t this p roblem , since it a rises from the p e r­sonal a ttitu d es of individual facu lty m em bers.

A m a jo r gripe I h e a r about the Uni­v ers ity is th a t it does not provide enough housing to g rad students. H owever, it is h a rd to support the view th a t the U niversity “ ow es” us m ore housing. It is a d ifferen t s ituation for the underg rads, w here the U niversity m ust a c t in loco p aren tis (like a crazy m o ther). Also, keeping as m any under­g rad s on cam pus as possible builds good com m unity re la tions. But m ost g rad studen ts p re fe r to live off-cam pus, and our needs a re quite well satisfied by the com m unity , w ith whom we have a very good relationship . In any event, even if we do “ d ese rv e” m ore housing, all of our begging and p leading won’t m ake the U niversity build anything for us until i t ’s good and read y to.

Some g rad studen ts com plain th a t we a re not w elcom e a t u n derg rad social ac tiv ities. I have driven through the N ortheast neighborhood on F rid ay nights, and the sight m akes m e ill. F ran k ly , m ost g rad studen ts w ant no p a r t w hatsoever in un derg rad social ac ­tivities. M any g rad s a re m arried and som e have kids. W hat need have we for SYRs? As for “ in te llec tua l” activ ities, m ost of us spend fourteen hours a day doing in tellectual ac tiv ities, and the la s t th ing we w ant is m ore of the sam e a fte r a hard day a t work. The G rad Club, w ith its purely social a tm osphere, is ju s t w hat the doctor o rdered .

The U niversity , so I am told, has quite a s tr ic t se t of ru les of conduct. F o rm ally , these ru les apply to g rad s tu ­dents. H owever, the U niversity g ra ­ciously does not push these ru les on us.

If we dem and th a t the U niversity tre a t us like under g rads, they will. The resu lt m ay be unbearab le . As it stands, we a re genera lly trea ted like sta ff o r ad ­junct facu lty m em bers, w ith a few ex­tr a priv ileges, and a few privileges taken aw ay. When we have m inor gripes or problem s, they a re usually taken c a re of righ t aw ay through our individual d ep artm en ts , o r we take c a re of them ourselves.

One should not get the im pression th a t th is is a m inority viewpoint. The v as t m ajo rity of g rad students I have

talked to ag ree w ith m e on w hat I am saying here. Change is not alw ays for the be tte r. P e rh ap s our “ a p a th y ” is a good thing. I t m ay be too la te to tu rn back the clock, but I hope the U niver­s ity ’s trad itio n a l “ hands off” policy tow ards its g rad students will rem ain as long as I am here. As long as the U niversity does as little as possible to im pede m y p rogress tow ard m y doc­to ra te , I will be happy.

D e a r E d ito r:A rriv ing as freshm en in South Bend

from various p a rts of the world, the four y ea rs ahead of us looked like a long s tre tch of tim e. Now as seniors of N otre D am e we realize th a t our s tay here has ac tually been very short. We have had four y ea rs to m ake our im pact on N otre D am e, but we m ust soon leave w ith its influence stam ped upon us and pass our priv ileges onto another fre sh ­m en c lass. As a resu lt of the transience of our s tay a t N otre D am e, students ra re ly m ake an effort to becom e a p a r t of the la rg e r com m unity w hich su r­rounds the student body. Y et the m em ­bers of this la rg e r com m unity rem ain here to g ree t the next group of incom ing freshm en and aid the seniors in re a c h ­ing com m encem ent.

A group of seniors have been working to put together the Senior Block P a rty , an annual event on the F rid ay before the final hom e football gam e of the season. The purpose of th is ga thering is to b ring together m em bers of the South Bend com m unity w ith N otre D am e studen ts in a friendly, fun-filled event. Our goal is to enjoy e n te rta in ­m ent, drinks, and ethnic foods together w ith the la rg e r com m unity of N otre D am e and South Bend.

D e a r E d ito r:The Viewpoint colum n “ D orm quota

system : yet ano ther m istake ” of Nov. 14 sta ted th a t “ the Office of Adm issions has consistently u n derestim ated the m atricu la tion ra te for severa l y ea rs , resu lting in an overabundance of fre sh ­m en .” In tru th , we have u n d eres­tim ated the m atricu la tion ra te for the p ast four y ea rs by a fac to r of 0.0038 which has resu lted in an e x tra seven freshm en p er year. This rep resen ts som e respec tab le estim ating on our p a rt when one considers th a t the ac tual m atricu la tion ra te has varied 0.06 during those y ears , and actually declined 0.02 a fte r last y e a r’s winning football season, quite the opposite of the au th o r’s im plication elsew here in the essay. In any event, the e x tra seven freshm en have not caused the housing d ilem m a.

Until m ore cam pus housing is built or the off-cam pus housing situation im ­proves, th ere will be a need for a policy regard ing the assignm ent of freshm en to residence halls and w ritten procedures to solve the problem s c rea ted if too few upperclassm en choose to m ove off cam pus. I am hope­ful th a t studen ts and rec to rs will work constructively w ith the Office of S tu­dent R esidences to c rea te the best pos­sible policies and procedures for m ain ­tain ing the residen tia l c h a ra c te r of N otre D am e while facing the rea lity of the grow ing desire for cam pus housing.

A fter hearing the o th e rs’ post-break stories about G erm any’s O ktoberfest a tm osphere of beer-toting

frauleins, polka m usic, and cam erad erie , and a fte r seeing the tan s of those who opted for the F rench beaches of Nice, I adm it I w as jealous...bu t I still consider m yself ex trem ely fortunate to have m ade the lo ttery for the Soviet Union trip .

Only 18 of the approx im ately 40 of us who w anted to go had the opportu­nity. With the recen t su rge of in te rest in trav e l to the USSR, the govern­m ent has set lim its to control the in­flux of tourists.

As our Aeroflot flight into L eningrad descended, the cloudy sky

The Soviet people also put up with conditions which, by American standards, would be unbearable.

gave the en tire landscape the g ray and d rab ap p earan ce I had alw ays associated w ith the country. And though, throughout the trip , I rem ained on the lookout for som eth­ing th a t would rad ica lly a lte r this stereo type , I never found it.

The country w as g ray ...an d it w as a lread y cold. On the w ay to the firs t of our “ m em orab le” hotels, we passed building a fte r building of the identical concrete, unadorned a rch i­tec tu re used for ap a rtm en ts . In a city such as L eningrad, with a population of 5.5 million, few people ev er own a home.

E ach person is a llo tted 12 square m e te rs in the governm ent-ow ned fla ts and approxim ately 17 in the privately-ow ned flats. R ent is only 2 or 3 percen t of the av erag e incom e and has not risen in decades. In ­com es range from 250 to 800 rub les a m o n th -m an u a l labo rers earn ing m ore th an doctors.

In tourist, the Soviet Union’s “ trav e l agency ,” fuddled our itin e ra ry . In ­stead of spending all of our tim e in Moscow and L eningrad (as we thought we would), we spent th ree full days in Novgorod. E v e r h ea rd of it? N either had we.

In tou rist had prom ised two sched­uled events p er day. N ear the end they had to s tre tch th e ir im ag in a ­tions. We even had a tour of the Nov­gorod lib rary .

Seriously, seeing the E nglish lite ra ­tu re th a t the governm ent did allow proved in teresting . Lots of

H em ingw ay and F itz g e ra ld -b u t F au lk n er seem ed to be the b iggest hit. Obviously, the governm ent would not find his w ork a th rea t.

I d idn’t look a t the book on A m eri­can h istory , but I w as told by those who did th a t although it could not be labeled “ u n tru th fu l,” it w as definitely slanted.

E a rlie r , I re fe rred to our hotels as “ m em o rab le .” Indeed they w ere; a lthough they too w ere m ost often fa irly d rab places. Since In tou rist had to do som e quick shuffling to accom ­m odate us, I feel as though we saw a side of the country not all tou ris ts a re purposely shown.

Our hotel food w as p red ic tab le a fte r our firs t few m eals. Sour dough b read , beets, tom atoes, hard-boiled eggs, and v aria tions thereof appeared rep ea ted ly before us. A nother n o v e lty -little sq u are tubs w ith hooks on the w all for a ttach in g accom pany­ing im plem ents posed as show ers. W ithout show er cu rta in s , ba throom floors becam e g re a t puddles - d isastrous for those la te night tr ip s to the bathroom . M ost m em orable (h a rd est to fo rget), our Novgorod hotel package included bedbugs.

The Soviet people also put up w ith conditions which, by A m erican s tan d ­ard s , would be unbearab le . T heir s to res (based on m y Novgorod expe­riences only) live up to th e ir outw ard ap p earan ces. All window displays look as though th ey ’ve been exactly the sam e for 30 y ears . Once inside, I w as rem inded of a ru m m ag e sale. P roducts w ere of poor quality . V ari­ety b a re ly existed.

G rocery sto res w eren ’t a p leasan t experience e ither: ru sty cans, dusty tins, cloudy ja rs , unappetizing chick­ens. B abies w ait outside. T h e re ’s not enough room in the sto res to accom ­m odate buggies.

People do w ait in lin e s-fo r fish in Novgorod, for baked goods in Mos­cow, assu red ly for m any m ore things of which I do not know.

I t ’s no w onder, then, th a t young people w anting to trad e illegally for m oney or clothes ap p ear a lm ost in­stan taneously w herever A m ericans go. W estern cu rrenc ies can be used in barioshkas, sto res selling goods for to u rists-goods w hich the Soviet people them selves cannot obtain.

We w ent to the Novgorod barioshka tw ice one day. Both tim es a fte r we pulled on the door the w om en a t the desk inside seem ed to be m otioning us aw ay. So tw ice we left. We thought we had com e during b reak tim es. L a te r th a t night, we w ere slightly em b arra ssed to d iscover th a t the wo­m en had sim ply been m otioning for us to push on the second door.

Kids c a rry w ith them collections of sm all pins expressly for gum -trading.

They will trad e any pin they have for ju s t one piece.

I cannot deny th a t the Soviet U nion’s overall a tm osphere w as one of b leakness. However, I also cannot deny th a t b righ t spots did exist.Among these b righ t spots I include the Moscow Circus in G orky P a rk , the s leeper tra in to Novgorod, th a t c ity ’s lovely fall colors, L en ing rad ’s am azing H erm itage m useum , and the horse we n icknam ed Olga and for whom we sm uggled eight su g ar cubes and th ree tom atoes from the Nov­gorod hotel. I also include m y rea liza ­tion th a t com plete freedom of religion ex ists, although p a rty m em bers are d iscouraged from practic ing .

M oscow’s R ed Square is a powerful and in trigu ing setting a t night. The red of the flag w ith its h am m er and sickle m akes a strik ing im age flu tte r­ing aga in st the d a rk im m ensity of the sky. The square , bordered by St. B asil’s ca th ed ra l, L enin’s tom b,______

Despite the stereotype I hold of a gray country,I have come away from the Soviet Union with a colorful sense of the people.________________L enin’s m useum , and G um ’s d e p a rt­m en t s to re (pronounced G oom s-its ap p earan ce is m ore im pressive than its n am e), ra d ia te s the sam e effect w hichever w ay one stands.

I enjoyed the K irov T h ea te r too, even though I had gone expecting the balle t. The heavy w om an a t the ticket window finally conveyed to us th a t it w as not perform ing th a t night. We decided to s tay for the o p e ra -m y firs t opera . Not until 15 m inutes into it, when we h ea rd a d istinc t “ n y e t,” w ere we absolutely su re it w as in R ussian . The production w as e x tra v a ­gan t and well received.

M ost definitely , the Soviet Union’s best a spec t is h er people. I rem em ­ber, though, th a t the firs t person I saw upon deboarding the p lane w as a sold ier a t the foot of the s ta irs . The m ajo rity of older people w ere serious and, I sensed, som ew hat skeptical of us.

H ow ever, the young people whom

we m et could not have been friendlier. Our 21-year-old tou r guide, N atasha , becam e one of our best friends. She felt th a t m any people of the o lder generation a re so full of p a rty slogans th a t they don’t know how to th ink for them selves. As a tour guide, she had been tra in ed to put in plugs for the C om m unist party . A ctually, only 19 m illion out of 286 million Soviet citizens c la im p arty m em bership .

The highlight of the tr ip for m ost of us w as the acquain tance of severa l Novgorod residen ts. We w ere sup­posed to have m et w ith studen ts but m et instead w ith young factory w orkers. At the a rran g ed social g a t­hering (sounds like N otre D am e, huh?), they taugh t us a trad itional dance. We had no choice but to rec ip rocate by teach ing them the hoky poky.

Obviously they w ere im pressed.A group of us m et again the next

evening and spent hours (the m ost rew ard ing of the trip ) d iscussing politics (glasnost, p e restro ik a ), re li­gion (they w ere a th e is ts), exp ec ta ­tions, beliefs, and questions we had for each other. At the end of the night we toasted to friends, took a few group p ictures, exchanged addresses, w alked back to our hotel through wet fall leaves, and said our goodbyes.

I rem em b er the firs t night in Red Square we had asked som e Soviet students w hat new s they heard of the U nited S tates. They knew about un­em ploym ent and about C alifornia’s loose m oral a tm osphere , drunk driving, and needle-shooting addicts. Hopefully, we c rea ted a slightly m ore positive im pression. D espite the stereo type I hold of a g ray country, I have com e aw ay from the Soviet Union w ith a colorful sense of the people.

Once back in London, we took the tube to our usual stop. As I walked tired ly from the station , I w as su rp rised how happy I fe lt to see the neon advertising , the cram ped little shops, the color, and the v a rie ty (the sun !). T hat d irty s tre e t has never looked so good since.

I don’t th ink I ’d choose to re tu rn to the Soviet Union, but I wouldn’t have m issed it for the w orld ...or O ktober­fest...o r the beach a t Nice.

M acon w as nam ed on 30 b a l­lots, while Douglas and Reid each appeared on 23.

King is the leading re tu rn ing sco rer of the group, having averaged 22.3 la s t season while grabbing 8.5 rebounds and blocking 2.6 shots p er gam e. The 6-10 King is considered the top cen ter in college basketball and m any feel King will be p laying the season feeling he has to prove his being cut from the O lym pic team w as a m is­take.

E llio tt d idn’t m ake the O lym ­pic team eith er despite his being considered a versa tile p layer so n ecessary in th a t s it­uation. He, too, will be on a team h u rt by g raduation as E l­lio tt and Anthony Cook a re the only s ta r te rs re tu rn in g from the W ildcat team w hich held the No. 1 spot for six w eeks last season. E llio tt av erag ed 19.6 points and 5.8 rebounds last season while shooting 57 p e r­cen t from the field, 47 percen t from 3-point range.

F e rry is looking for his th ird F ina l F ou r tr ip in a storied ca re e r a t Duke, the No. 1 team in the p reseason poll. The 6-10 son of the W ashington Bullets general m an ag er w as nam ed A tlantic Coast Conference p layer of the y e a r last season a fte r averag ing 19.1 points, 7.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists.

Reid is the only O lym pian on the p reseason All-A m erica team . The 6-9, 250 pounder suf­fered a foot in ju ry in Seoul and m issed th ree gam es there . He broke a bone in his o ther foot during p rac tice a t N orth C arolina la s t m onth, under­w ent su rg e ry and is not ex­pected to re jo in the T ar Heels until conference p lay begins a fte r the firs t of the year. He averaged 18 points and 8.9 rebounds la s t season while shooting 61 p ercen t from the field.

The 6 foot D ouglas will once again be running the show for the O rangem en. He averaged 16.1 points p er g am e la s t season but his 8.2 assis t av e rag e shows how im portan t he is, especially th is season when S yracuse could see fre sh ­m en playing a key ro le in the offense.

Hoopscontinued from page 16having N otre D am e acqu ire the benefits of a tough, conference type scheule while re ta in ing in­dependent s ta tu s.

“ Since w e’re not in a confer­ence, we figured w e’d p lay the best schedule we can by playing two team s from every conference, w hich will be our co n feren ce-o u r 28 g a m e s ,” said the a ll-tim e w inningest N otre D am e coach. “ Then, th a t will condition us for w hat w e’re try ing to do in M arch .”

The im proved schedule has the p layers excited as well.

“ It w as h a rd to keep your m enta l a ttitu d e high la st y e a r when we w ere on such d ifferen t k ee ls - in the w eekend playing a Duke or K entucky, then p lay ing a w eaker team on a T uesday or T h u rsd ay ,” said F red rick . “ This y e a r we have to be m entally in it each night. We c a n ’t go down the schedule and say , T h e re ’s a win, th e re ’s a w in ,’ we have to prove our­selves every n igh t.”

Second, the freshm an c lass: led by 6-9 forw ard LaPhonso E llis, the N otre D am e C lass of 1992 has been ra ted as one of the best in the nation.

“ I think once these guys ad ap t to the concentration a t th is level as well as the con­cepts a t th is level, com ing out of high school and going into college, we ll begin to m ake s trid es as a basketball te a m ,” said Phelps.

E llis, a firs t-team selection on the 1988 P a ra d e All- A m erican team , led E a s t St. Louis (111.) Lincoln High School to the 1987 and 1988 Illinois s ta te titles. He av erag ed 18.9 points, 18.8 rebounds and 7.3 blocked shots for Lincoln.

“ I think LaPhonso E llis is every th ing we thought he w as going to b e ,” P helps said. “ I d idn’t w ant to put any p ressu re on him , I ju s t w ant him to blend in.

“ H e’s got to s tay out of foul trouble, know when to block shots and when not to, and h e ’ll be an ag ressive p lay e r inside a t both ends of the floor. H e’ll s ta r t, h e ’ll p lay. L e t’s see how he does.”

Two high sco re rs from T exas add to the highly touted fresh ­m an c lass. Point gu ard E lm er B ennett, T ex as’ M r. B asketball in 1988, av erag ed 35.8 points and 6.2 rebounds for Houston B ella ire High School. D aim on Sweet, a 6-5 off-guard, was

nam ed the MVP in the Texas high school a ll-sta r gam e.

O ther freshm en include 6-2 K eith Adkins, a th ree point shooter from Pain tsv ille , K y .; and Keith Tow er, a 6-11 cen te r from Coraopolis, P a .

Tow er su rp rised Phelps w ith his su rp rising p lay on the front line, which includes E llis and re tu rn in g p layers Scott P a d ­dock, a 6-9 junior, and Keith Robinson, N otre D am e’s top re ­tu rn ing sco rer and rebounder.

Robinson has ju st re tu rn ed to p rac tice following an ankle in­ju ry suffered early in the school year.

“ (Robinson) has got a lot of catch ing up to do ,” Phelps said. “ H e’s picking up things in review as fa r as the system , so h e ’s playing catch-up. I don’t know how m uch of a fac to r he’ll be a t the ea rly p a r t of the season.

“ I think Tow er is the su rp rise ,” Phelps said, “ because I d idn’t think h e ’d do as well as he is doing. He picks up the concepts rea lly well and h e ’s a good p layer. H e’s going to help us a lo t.”

Sophom ore K evin E llery adds depth to the Irish frontcourt.

F red rick , Jackson and point guard Tim Singleton bring ex ­perience to the Irish backcourt. F red rick re tu rn s a fte r av e ra g ­ing 7.7 points p er gam e his sophom ore year. Jackson , last y e a r ’s defensive p lay e r of the y ea r, scored 5.3 points per con­te s t and added 49 assists, p laying in every Irish gam e.

At point guard will be soph­om ore Tim Singleton and B en­nett. Singleton had 38 assists in 28 gam es la s t season, playing m ostly in defensive situations.

The la rg e num ber of guards

m ay cause one of the p layers, perh ap s Sweet, Jackson or F red rick to see tim e a t sm all forw ard.

“ As fa r as the sty le of p lay ,” Phelps said , “ w e’ll try and p ress full court as m uch as we can. We’ll p lay 10 guys the firs t half, w e’ve got th a t ta len t, and keep the hea t on the opposition. Obviously, we w ant to m ove the ball down the floor.

“ We ll m ake m istakes early , but once th is team com es on, th ey ’ll be able to com pete aga in st anybody.”

Planner nips Pangborn in Interhall soccerBy CHRIS FILLIOSports Writer

The in terhall soccer cham pi­onship has finally been n a r­row ed down to the la s t gam e of the season, to be decided in ton igh t’s season finale betw een P angborn and P lanner.

T uesday night a t Moose K rause S tadium , the u p s ta rt te am from P lan n er forced a final cham pionship g am e by defeating P angborn 1-0 in a rough and physical m atch . As the team from the lo se r’s b rack e t, P lan n er needed to win th a t gam e in o rd er to force a one-gam e all-or-nothing con­tes t for the in terhall cham pion­ship.

And th a t is exactly w hat they did.

“ I d idn ’t th ink th a t we played very w ell,” sa id P angborn co­ach D erek Weldon. “ O ur of­fense w asn ’t there . We had one fo rw ard in ju red e a rly in the gam e, and ano ther one d idn ’t a rr iv e until la te r .”

U nder w arm but b lustery conditions, the only goal in the gam e cam e m idw ay through the firs t half. Going ag a in st the wind, a shot on goal by F lan n er fo rw ard G arth B ehrje got held up by the wind ju s t enough to cause som e indecision and con­fusion on the p a r t of P an g b o rn ’s defense. The ball w as deflected out fron t and p rom ptly deposited in the net by F lan n e r m idfielder Dave Neidell.

D espite an overw helm ing num ber of shots by P angborn , they could not cap ita lize when it counted. A nother s te lla r p e r­fo rm ance by F lan n e r goalie Tom M alone m ade the only goal of the g am e a w inner.

P angborn will a ttem p t to rebound and cap tu re the title in ton igh t’s gam e. The two team s will sq u are off a t 7:30p.m . a t Moose K rause S tad ium to decide th is y e a r ’s in te rha ll soccer cham pions.

HOLY CROSS BROTHERS

By BRIAN O’GARASports W riter

It all s ta r ts tonight for the N otre D am e w om en’s bask e t­ball team .

The Irish tak e to the court in an exhibition m atchup w ith the M exican N ational T eam tonight a t the Joyce ACC to open the 1988-89 season.

“ We’re anxious to see som e new fa c e s ,” said second-year head coach M uffet M cGraw. “ I t ’s h a rd to tell rig h t now how good w e’ll be and th is will be a good te s t for u s .”

M cG raw is still juggling lineup options for the Irish who look to im prove upon last season ’s 20-8 record . Senior co­cap ta in Heidi Bunek will anchor the m iddle, sophom ore sparkp lug K aren Robinson will s ta r t a t point guard , but beyond th a t nothing is se ttled heading into ton igh t’s m atchup .

“ We rea lly haven’t m ade any decisions yet on s ta r te r s ,” said M cGraw, “ so tonight will be a good opportunity to look a t people in gam e situations.

“ This team from Mexico isn ’t very ta ll, but th ey ’re fast. T hey’ve had a few in juries so th ey ’re only playing about eight people. But like m ost in­te rna tiona l team s, th ey ’ll move the ball well and get it up the court quickly. It should be an uptem po-type g am e .”

T hat su its K aren Robinson ju s t fine.

“ W e’re supposed to be a ru n ­ning team and this will be a good challenge for u s ,” said Robinson. “ I t ’ll also be nice to play ag a in st som eone other th an ourselves like we do in p rac tice and did Sunday in the Blue-Gold gam e. This will be a good te s t of our p rogress so f a r .”

The Irish a re en tering the ir

firs t y e a r as m em bers of the n ine-team M idw estern Col­leg iate Conference, which in­cludes D ayton, M arquette and Loyola. In the pre-season coaches poll the Irish w ere picked to win the conference by all seven of the coaches who voted.

Bunek, who av erag ed 17.9 points and 8.8 rebounds last season, w as also picked as a pre-season conference first- team A ll-Star. The Irish also re tu rn L isa Kuhns, a senior co­cap ta in who is deadly from the p e rim e te r and av erag ed nine points p er outing la s t season.

A fter m eeting the M exican team tonight the Irish will trav e l to N orthw estern on No­vem ber 29 for th e ir f irs t regu ­la r season gam e. Following the V irginia T ournam ent the next weekend, N otre D am e’s first hom e g am e will be Dec. 7 aga in st M arquette.

A nother top incom ing p layer is Todd M artin of N orthw estern who cap tu red the N ational G rass Court Cham pionship in 1987.

“ The tou rnam en t has the top freshm an in the coun try ,” said Bayliss. “ It is as good a regional tou rnam en t as you can h av e .”

The open draw singles and doubles com petition w inners and runners-up will advance to the national Rolex com petition. In the singles com petition, 16 of the 96 p layers will be seeded by a selection com m ittee. The 32 tandem s in the doubles com ­petition will not be seeded.

“ I hope we m ake the s trongest showing possib le,” said Bayliss. “ Our top four p layers have dem onstra ted th a t they can do som e d am ag e .”

SPORTS BRIEFSMcGuire happy to be hereFrosh center leaves Southeast, bolsters offensive line

B y S T E V E M E G A R G E EAssistant Sports Editor

You wouldn’t think the Deep South could ask Gene M cG uire for any m ore favors.

While playing a t Mosley High School in P a n am a City, F la ., M cG uire earn ed firs t-team All- A m erica honors from P a ra d e and USA Today. The M osley Dolphins, a 1-9 team w hen he w as in 10th g rade , w ent a com ­bined 17-3 during his final two y ea rs a t the school.

But when M cG uire m ade his decision to a ttend N otre D am e, severa l people from around the F lo rida P anhand le did all they could to m ake him change his mind.

“ I got a lot of p ressu re to stay in the s ta te to p lay football, and A labam a w as rea lly close, but m y m om and dad w anted m e to go to N otre D am e,” said the freshm an cen ter. “ This w as the firs t p lace I v isited , and a fte r I cam e here I d idn’t w ant to go anyplace else.

“ A labam a respected m y decision, ” M cGuire continued. “ I still got a lot of p ressu re from F lo rida and Auburn. They w ere kind of rude about it, but they w eren ’t going to change m y m ind .”

E ven a fte r he com m itted to N otre D am e, rum ors w ere ra m p a n t th a t M cGuire even tu ­ally would decide to s tay closer to home.

“ About two w eeks before sig ­ning, som ehow a ru m o r got s ta r te d th a t I d go to A la­b a m a ,” said M cGuire. “ Both m y b est friends from high school w ere going to A labam a. I w as rec ru ited w ith both of them , and we took num erous tr ip s to A labam a to see them play. People thought I ’d go with m y friends, but no, th is p lace is w orth it.

“ E ven a fte r I signed, there w as a ru m o r I ’d go to A labam a. I had to go on the news and rep o rt it w as fa lse .”

M cG uire has d em onstra ted th is fall ju s t why so m any schools w ere a fte r his serv ices. The 6-5, 265-pounder has taken ad v an tag e of a young offensive line to w ork his w ay to second on the depth c h a r t as a cen ter.

M cG uire h im self w as a little su rp rised a t how ea rly he received play ing tim e.

“ I rea lly d idn’t know w hat to e x p e c t; I cam e into frehshm an cam p, and th a t w ent p re tty well,” said McGuire. “TTien, I

saw the u pperc lassm en com e in and it w as like ‘Geez, th ey ’re big boys.’ Then we saw them run and lift w eights and saw how fast and strong they w e re .”

A guard in high school, M cG uire sam pled th ree d iffer­en t positions during the p re ­season drills. He s ta rte d a t quick guard , then m oved to quick tack le behind Andy Heck, and finally a rriv ed a t c en te r when Tim R yan w as m oved to quick guard .

“ The cen te r s ta r ts the whole offense function ing ,” said Irish offensive line coach Tony Y elovich. “ He contro ls 10 o ther people, so he has a lot of re ­sponsibility.

“ Gene is w orking and has been very conscientious in lea rn ing his ru les and assign­m e n ts ,” Yelovich continued. “ I t ’s alw ays difficult for a fresh m an to ad ap t to ev e ry ­th ing th a t tra n sp ire s on the of­fensive line. With the depth problem s we have, h e ’s stepped into a position w here he can co n trib u te .”

M cG uire has not had too m any difficulties m aking the ad ju stm en t of going from a high school A ll-A m erican to a college second-team player.

“ My lOth-grade y e a r we ran a lot of sp rin ts , and football w as m ore conditioning than it w as lea rn in g ,” said M cGuire. “ W e’d run 60 sp rin ts a day som etim es before and a fte r p rac tice . When the b ran d new coach cam e in, it w as a com ­ple te tu rnaround .

“ I rea lly w asn ’t very good in jun io r high a t all. I w as a la te bloom er. I had been about 225 to 230 pounds, kind of ta ll and skinny. My stren g th coach, Bill G raff, rea lly got m e s ta rted w ith running and lifting w eights and built m e u p .”

In fact, M cGuire still psyches h im self up for gam es by rem em bering the m otto his team had in high school.

ND basketball team will try to ‘make the impossible happen’By T H E R E S A K E L L Y S T E V E M E G A R G E EAssistant Sports Editors

When each N otre D am e m en’s basketball p layer heads to daily p rac tice , he firs t hits a sign which read s, “ M ake the Im possible H appen .” The front of it says, “ B attle to S ea ttle ,” re fe rrin g to the s ite of the 1989 F inal Four.

I t ’s all p a r t of the new a tti­tude p reva len t around the Irish basketball team . No longer will 20 wins and an NCAA to u rn a ­m ent berth be good e n o u g h - this yea r, the Irish a re setting m uch loftier goals.

“ I t’s rea lly w eird. In the past he (Coach D igger Phelps) has alw ays s tressed a 20-win seaso n ,” said Irish co-captain Joe F red rick . “ The a ttitu d e now is i t ’s not going to be a suc­

cessful y e a r unless we m ake the F inal F o u r .”

The Irish will be en tering the ‘B attle for S ea ttle ’ w ith a se ­v ere sho rtage of experienced w arrio rs. With Sean Connor sw itching sports (to football) and M ark Stevenson sw itching schools (to D uquesne), N otre D am e en te rs the season with no seniors.

But Phelps is confident in the leadersh ip of jun io r co­cap ta in s Ja m e re Jackson and F red rick .

“ I think Ja m e re and F red rick a re g re a t le a d e rs ,” said Phelps. “ I think th ey ’ll have everybody playing to th e ir potential, and th ey ’ll take c a re of the ups and downs of the seaso n .”

The two asp ec ts of the Irish basketball team th a t have d raw n the m ost a tten tion ,

how ever, a re the upgraded schedule and the ta len ted freshm an class.

F irs t, the schedule: it in­cludes five p reseason top 20 clubs in Duke, Louisville, S yracuse, G eorgia Tech and Tem ple. O ther highly reg a rd ed team s th a t ap p ea r on the Irish schedule include Indiana, D ePaul, Southern M ethodist (under new head coach and fo rm er Irish a ss is tan t John Shum ate) and UCLA.

“ E v ery com p etito r’s d ream is to have th a t challenge to go out aga in st a h igh ly-regarded team and see w hat you can do ,” said Ja m e re Jackson , the o ther Irish co cap ta in . “ If we w ere sca red of the best team s, we w ouldn’t be co m petito rs .”

Quick, nam e the sta rtin g cen­te r on the num ber one ranked college football team in the na­tion!

Give up?Well, if you m eet the 6-4, 260

pound one-tim e F lo rida s ta te heavyw eight w restling cham p, you won’t soon forget him.

Mike Heldt. W rite it down. N um ber 55. H e’s been the re g ­u la r s ta r te r all season long and will be a fix tu re th ere until graduation day.

H eldt excels a t a no nam e po­sition, but he doesn’t mind.

“ Somebody has to do i t ,” said the seem ingly alw ays-happy sophom ore. “ They told m e one d a y - 'y o u ’re a cen ter now -so th a t’s w here I am . I like it; i t ’s a challenge.”

A th ree-sport s ta r a t Leto High School in T am pa, F la ., H eldt chose N otre D am e over F lo rida and F lo rida S tate. He sa t la s t y e a r behind All-

A m erican Chuck Lanza, but w as penciled in the sta rtin g role la s t spring.

“ I t ’s an honor,” said Heldt of sta rtin g as a sophom ore. “ I ’m playing as well as I can, try ing to get bigger and b e tte r .”

H eld t’s back-up experience la s t season m akes him one of the elite “ re tu rn in g p lay e rs” on a line filled with new com ers to the college trenches.

“ We have to play as a fam ily inside ,” noted Heldt of a line which has su rp rised m ost with its perfo rm ance. “ If you play next to som eone else, i t ’s to­ta lly d ifferent. We’ve got g rea t chem istry . I t ’s a lot of fun .”

T hat chem istry and the effec­tiveness of the young offensive line will be challenged by Penn S ta te ’s defensive lin e -a group w hich stuffed the running gam es of all but W est V irginia. And H eldt ce rta in ly isn ’t ex­pecting an easy S atu rday a f te r ­noon.

“ I t ’s gonna be a tough one. (Penn S ta te ’s) faced w ith a losing season, th e y ’re playing num ber one w ith a chance of hum iliating us. We re gonna b a ttle up fro n t.”

As for ano ther b a ttle - th e M iam i W ar-H eld t w as m ore than e lated with the v ictory. He w as relieved, too.

“ I can go hom e now. Their s ta rtin g m iddle linebacker (junior B ernard C lark , 1988 O r­ange Bowl M VP) is a good friend of m ine from high school. It w as g re a t to play aga in st him . It w ouldn’t have been as g rea t if we had lo st,” added Heldt w ith a laugh.

And Heldt will be going hom e w ith m ore than ju st a M iam i victory in his pocket. H e’ll know th a t he’s a key m em ber of the Irish offense, and m aybe h e ’ll have a N ational Cham pi-

Football team loose, well-rested for Penn StateThe verd ic t is in on the n e a r two-week layoff for

the N otre D am e football team , and Irish coaches and p layers a re sm iling a t the resu lts .

“ I t ’s definitely re la x e d ,” senior tri-cap ta in M ark G reen said. “ We feel good about ourselves and about w hat we re doing. The a ttitu d e is outstanding. Now it’s ju s t a m a tte r of going out and doing it .”

Coach Lou Holtz gave the team a th ree-day pass last w eekend. While the p layers w ere resting , Holtz and the coaching sta ff poured over gam e film s to try to avoid last y e a r ’s th ree gam e slide th a t began with the Penn S ta te gam e.

The Irish re tu rn ed to the p rac tice field w ith zest M onday, p rac tic in g unusually long and h itting un­usually hard for the firs t day of the week. Holtz saw p ro g ress a fte r the layoff, although he d idn’t expect sub stan tia l im provem ent.

“ We had som e good crispness to d ay ,” he said a fte r the M onday p rac tice . “ W e’re too banged up to get a lot b e tte r .”

Holtz is 1-1 a fte r open d a tes w ith the Irish . L ast yea r, P ittsb u rg h downed the Irish 30-22 and N otre D am e defeated N avy 33-14 in 1986. In the 1980s, the Irish a re 4-3 a fte r an open date , including a 44-7 win over the N ittany Lions in 1984.

S a tu rd ay ’s gam e will be the last in N otre D am e Stadium for the Irish seniors.

D uring th e ir four y ears , the seniors have com ­piled a 19-4 ledger a t hom e, including th e ir cu rren t 11-game hom e winning s treak . Penn S tate w as the la s t team to defeat N otre D am e a t hom e, 24-19 in 1986. The four home-field losses w ere by a to tal of 10 points.

“ They ra ised m e ,” Holtz said.Some thoughts on going through the tunnel one

la s t tim e:

T ri-cap tain M ark G re e n : “ I rem em b er the firs t day, the firs t gam e against M ichigan S tate . You could look up and see the s tands full, the glowing gold helm ets and the band playing loudly. I ’m glad about the situation. I c a n ’t think of a b e tte r w ay to go ou t.”

T ri cap ta in Andy Heck: “ The four y ea rs have

certa in ly gone by fast. I t rea lly h a sn ’t hit hom e. I don’t get rea l em otional about these things. I ju st w ant to be 10-0.”

Holtz says the Irish kicking gam e will be back a t full s tren g th ag a in st the N ittany Lions a fte r a series of changes in the p as t few gam es.

Reggie Ho will handle the field goals and e x tra points, Billy H ackett the kickoffs and J im Sexton the punting chores.

“ We re back a g a in ,” Holtz said of the kicking gam e. “ We’ve got H ackett s tra ig h t and R eg s tra ig h t.”

In ju ries shouldn’t be a big problem for the Irish in S a tu rd ay ’s gam e.

Offensive guard Tim G runhard rested T hursday as did fu llbacks Anthony Johnson and B raxston B anks. All th ree should be able to play aga in st Penn S tate. F re sh m an tigh t end D erek Brown has been sidelined throughout the week w ith a case of the flu and freshm an running back Rod Culver is nursing a so re shoulder.
