Rape victim
files lawsuit
against ND
By SARAH HAMILTON
E ditorin Chief
a
A ttorneys for the Saint Mary’s n u r­
sing stu d en t w ho was raped last May
on the road betw een the College
and N otre Dame filed a S3 million
law suit against the University in
federal co u rt in Chicago yesterday.
The suit charges that N otre Dame
did not supply adequate security on
the road b etw een the tw o schools
for the victim and now claim ant
w hose nam e was unavailable as o f
last night
N otre Dame ow ed the w om an
"the duty o f exercising ordinary and
reasonable care to p ro tect h e r from
crim inal activity and harm ," a c c o rd ­
ing to the suit. The University acted
"w antonly, willfully, recklessly and
w ith a conscious disregard for the
rights o f invitees," the suit states.
At approxim ately 11 p.m. May 12,
the student was retu rn in g from
N otre Dame alone along th e road
co n n ectin g the tw o schools w hen
she was attacked from behind. She
said she could not hear h er assailant
approach because she was w earing
earphones and listening to music.
The victim then was dragged into
a w ooded area 180 feet from U.S.
Route 31 w here the assailant b ru ­
tally assaulted and raped h er a c co rd ­
ing to the law suit.
Besides failing to p ro te c t the
victim, the suit alleges that N otre
Dame did not w arn stu d en ts and
patrol the road. The University failed
to provide "adequate p recau tio n s to
p ro tect the safety o f the stu d en ts
and those w ho w ere invited to its
prem ises, such as Saint Mary’s stu ­
dents," the suit states.
In an o th e r
charge, the suit challenges that th e
lighting on the road betw een N otre
Dame and Saint Mary's is inadequate.
The C hicago law firm o f Harvy J.
B arnett and Associates is filing for
$15 million in punitive dam ages
and $1.5 million in actual damage.

‘Humanitas’joins ND publications

E ditor’s note: This article is p a rt
tw o o f a tw o -p a rt series e x a m in in g
n ew N otre D am e ca m p u s p u b lic a ­
tions.
The C ollege of Arts and Letters, in
co n ju n ctio n w ith the d ep artm en ts
o f philosophy. English, g o vernm ent
and the Program of Liberal Studies, is
in the p ro cess o f p rod u cin g th e first
edition o f H um anitas, a once p er
sem ester journal, according to Jo hn
Dettling, editor-in-chief.
"T he idea for the journal was not
an original one," D ettling said yes­
terday. Actually, th ere have been
several proposals in the past for such
a publication, but th e plans had
never been carried out."
D ettling added,“At the beginning
o f this year, I w ent to the Dean o f the
C ollege of Arts and Letters, Michael
Ixtux, w ith my plans He told m e that
if I co n stru c te d a form at for the jo u r­
nal, put to g eth er a staff, gathered
com m itm ents
from
potential
w orkers, and raised som e m oney, he
w ould back o u r efforts financially. ”
As of now, Hum anitas is w orking
w ith an $800 b udget w hich, ac c o rd ­
ing to D ettling, covers the c o st of
p roduction, publishing, and many
o th e r “little things’ w hich are in ­
volved in p u ttin g to g e th e r a publica­
tion.
D ettling also said his staff may
look to o u tsid e advertising to help
su p p o rt th e journal, b u t th e staff
w ould be “ very selective” in ch o o s­
ing advertisers.
At the beginning o f this sem ester,
Dettling, after talking to Dean Loux,
p osted several an n o u n cem en ts e n ­
couraging stu d en ts to get involved
in his p roject. Now, his staff consists
of an Assistant E ditor Brian Ulicny,
Layout Editor, Jean O ’Brien, and six
w riters.
The p u rp o se o f Humanitas, ac­
co rd in g to D ettling,“is to focus on
scholarly essays by stu d en ts and
faculty m em bers.
“T he first issue,” added Dettling,
“will consist o f th ree essays by
faculty m em b ers and o n e essay by a
student. W e will also include a few
features articles and p erhaps som e
book reviews. ”
At th e p resen t tim e, D ettling is
looking for any stu d en t w ho is in ­
tereste d in w riting a "w ell th o u g h t
o u t original essay” to be p rin ted in
the first issue.
“Before H umanitas, th ere w as a

60s radical Hoffman
speaks here tomorrow
By MARK PANKOWSKI
Assistant News Editor
Abbie Hoffman, the 60s radical
w h o w as o ne o f the “Chicago
Seven,” w h o has been arrested 41
times, and w ho on ce mailed 3,000
m arijuana cig arettes to random ly
. selected people, is com ing to N otre
Dame tom orrow .
Hoffman, sch ed u led to lectu re at
th e C en ter for Social C oncerns at
12:30 p.m . and W ashington Hall at 8
p.m., “w as right in the m iddle o f it”
during the tu rb u len t 60s, said Mike
Vote, S tudent Activities Board Ideas
and Issues chairm an.
“Hoffman was a big part of it. He
w as going th rough it all,” Yore
added.
Hoffman, w ho is lecturing as part
o f the Future Perspectives Series,
will speak on th e "parallels b etw een
stu d en t activism in the 60s and the
80s, ” said Vore.
He added Hoffman definitely will
address how stu d en ts today are not
as active as th e ir 60s counterparts.
"T he idea for bringing Hoffman is
to look back at the 60s and see w hat
forces w ere influencing stu d en ts
and p eo p le th e n ,” Vore explained.
“T hose stu d en ts o f the 60s are in
p o w er now . They are in positions to
change things,” he said, adding,
“( Hoffman’s le c tu re ) will give us a
ch an ce to see the changes that are
com ing and changes that will o c ­
cu r.”
T ickets for Hoffman’s W ashington
Hall lectu re are free and will be dis­
trib u te d from noon until 4 p.m.
today at Rock du Lac.
Beginning his activism in the early
60s, Hoffman sent the m arijuanna
cigarettes to N ew Y orkers in 1967.
That w as not his only stunt,
how ever, that attracted national
m edia a tten tio n that year.
In April 1967, Hoffman and
several o th e rs th rew dollar bills
o n to th e floor o f the N ew York Stock
E xchange and w atch ed the chaos as
traders scram bled to pick up the
cash. And in O c to b e r o f that year,
during a huge anti-Vietnam War
dem o n stratio n in W ashington, D C.,
he led an effort to su rro u n d the P en­
tagon and levitate it.
An incident o ccu rrin g in August
o f 1968 was not an antic, how ever.
Hoffman and o th e r “Yippics" c o n ­
fronted police d u ring a peaceful
m arch in C hicago to p ro test the
D em ocratic National C onvention.
As a national television audience
w atched, th e police brutally beat the
m archers, arresting several in the
process.
But Hoffman was destin ed to gain
m ost o f his n o to riety from an o th er
incident in 1969, w hen he and seven
o th ers w ere in d icted on charges of
conspiracy and crossing state lines
to incite a riot.
After o n e d efen d an t’s case was
sep arated from th e others, those left
becam e know n as the “C hicago
Seven.” Famous nationw ide, they
called dozens o f w itnesses an. j u t . ,
p ro tested in bizarre ways, including
Hoffman’s dressing in judge’s robes
on o n e occassion.

Federal loan subsidizes
SMC dorm renovation
By KARLA KISSMAN
News Staff
LeMans and Holy Cross Halls at
Saint Mary’s are receiving m uchn eed ed renovation s due to a low
in terest govern m en t funded loan,
acco rd in g to Jason Lindower, C on­
tro ller and Business M anager o f th e
College.
The w ork began o v er fall break
and w ill c o n tin u e until its e x p e c ted
finish in tw o years, said Lindower.
O ver *4 million, he added, has
b een b u d g eted for th e renovations.
A low in terest college housing
g overn m en t loan is supplying $3
1 /2 m illion o f this p ro p o sed budget.
Saint Mary’s had to apply in o rd e r
to receive this loan, Lindow er said.
“The co m p etitio n for th e loans w as
very tough. In fact, th ere w as only
$35 to $45 m illion available for th e
w hole co u n try ,” said Lindower.
In the application process, the
College had to d em o n strate a need
for ren o v atio n in th eir housing for
students. Lindow er said Saint Mary’s
had an easier tim e than m ost ap­
p licants d em o n stratin g need d u e to
“safety reaso n s” and th e great n eces­
sity for repair.
L indow er also n o ted that the
renovations that have started are
progressing nicely although th e
w eath er w ill rem ain a critical factor
in th e p ro je c te d finishing dates.
LeMans and Holy C ross Halls,
b o th o ld er dorm s, have b ee n in
d esp erate need o f repairs, acco rd in g
to Lindow er. The list o f planned
renovations is, therefore, long.
W ork already in pro g ress includes

The m asonry w o rk is m ostly e x ­

Johansen found th e N otre Dame

This soon led to a conflict w ith
his obligation to baseball, how ever,
so Johansen surveyed his options
and d ecid ed to relinquish the
benefits o f his baseball scholarship
in o rd e r to d ev o te m ore tim e to his
w ork w ith Kohn.
“I learned a lot in those days,”
says Johansen. "I had always d one a
lot o f reading about solar pow er,
but getting hands-on experien ce
w ith a real ex p erim en t d one on
d ec e n t eq u ip m en t increased my
understanding beyond m easure."
Realizing how few o p p o rtu n ities
existed for u ndergraduate research,
Johansen d ecid ed to form an o r­
ganization d ev o ted to providing
o th e r in terested stu d en ts the o p ­
po rtu n ity to do th eir ow n w ork in
th e field, and SPERO w as born.
SPERO officially cam e into exis­
ten ce in January 1983 w h en the
then S tudent Union g ran ted the
club a c h a rte r and a share o f the
stu d en t activity fee incom e. With
this m oney and a grant o r tw o from
various energy research firms, the
m em bers o f SPERO began rese a rc h ­
ing in earn est the co nversion of
light into electricity.
W hen was the last tim e you had a
free hand in any e x p erim en ts o r had
fun in the laboratory?
A ccording to Johansen, "The
o p p o rtu n ities for innovative undergrad research are very lim ited here,
not only by a lack o f hinds, but also
in term s o f the incredibly small
am ount o f free tim e available to the
stu d en ts w ho w ould be interested
in such w ork. ”
The m ajority ofSPERO’s research
o ccu rs in January and February in
o rd e r to avoid conflicts in th e fall
w ith foothall and o th e r m ajor
events.
Johansen m aintains that SPERO is
a very open-m inded g ro u p and
encourages any stu d en t in terested
in any aspect of solar research to
c o n tac t th e gro u p to gain access to
th eir exp erim en tal equipm en t. As
Johansen said, "You can ’t beat
research as a way to broaden your
understan d in g o f th e m aterial you
learn in eng in eerin g classes. W e’d
like to see p eo p le take advantage o f
this ch an ce.”
Any stu d en ts frustrated by w res­
tling w ith all those differential

Johansen a call at 3173 and give
research a try. Maybe y o u ’ll enjoy

The passengers vary from a g ro u p searching

dates that en d w ith the “I have to go to th e
b athroom ” excuse.
W eekend nights are th e p rim e tim e of
sh u ttle riding. T he bus is usually jam -packed.
Friends, ro o m m ates and dates alike can be lost
in th e shuffle. By th e tim e th e bus reach es its

Not wearing seatbelts foolishly endangers drivers
N early every day, peo p le p u t them selves
into situations o f great danger, facing D eath
each tim e. M ost o f the tim e, D eath fails to
cap tu re them , b u t every o n ce in a w hile, he
gets lucky. Every tim e som eone gets into a car,
D eath is w aiting.

g u e st c o lu m n
A utom obiles are dangerous things. W e
h u rtle thousands o f p o un d s o f m etal aro u n d at
great speeds. And, unfortunately, every o n ce
in a w hile, on e com es to a su d d en sto p and
som eone is in ju red o r dies.
This d o es n o t have to happen. P eople can
save th eir lives, b u t m ost d o not. M ost p eop le
do not w ear th e ir seatbelts w h e n th ey ride in a
car. A ccording to a re c e n t study, only 19 p e r­
c en t o f A m erican adults use th eir seatbelts
everytim e th ey ride in o r drive a car. O th ers
adm it to w earing them occasionally, b u t m ost
peo p le n ev er do. Is th e re a reaso n for this?
Why do supposedly in telligent p e o p le do
som ething as foolish as n o t w earing a seatbelt?
Before w e answ er this, let us look at the
facts. Every year, 23,000 p e o p le die in
autom obile accidents. T hat w orks o u t to 63
p eo p le each day. A nother tw o and a half mil­
lion p eo p le are injured each year, o r ap ­
proxim ately 6,050 peo p le each day. And h ere
is an o th er im p o rtan t fact: using seatb elts cu ts
y o u r ch an ces o f becom ing o n e o f th o se statis­
tics in half. And the odds are th at every o n e
w ill b e involved in at least o n e serio u s acci­
d en t in his o r h e r life.
So w hy do so m any peop le ch o o se to ignore
th e tru th and take th eir chances? T he excuses
w e h ear are incredibly inane, m u ch like those
fo und in a th ird grader w ith a dislike for
hom ew ork. Instead o f “I can ’t find a p en cil,”
o r “My dog ate it,” w e get su ch rational
answ ers as “I d o n ’t w ant to w rinkle my
clo th es,” “I always forget,” o r “T hey’re to o u n ­
com fortable."
Let us b e realistic. The seatbelts in today’s
cars are m uch b e tte r designed than th ey w e re
five years ago. All o n e m ust do is take a few
seconds to adjust th em for co m fo rt and so that
o n e ’s clo th e s do n o t get w rinkled. And if you
think a b o u t it, it is likely th a t o n e w o u ld rath er
b e a little u n com fortable than dead. People
look m uch b e tte r w h en they are alive and in a
slightly w rin k led set of clo th es than w h en
they are dead and in perfectly p ressed c lo th ­
ing. And as for p o o r m em ory, every p erso n
m ust make th e conscious ch o ice to buckle up.
People w h o d o w ear th e ir seatbelts for th e
first tim e usually w o n d e r h o w su ch a flexible
device w h ich allows o n e to lean forw ard can
p ro te c t th em in an accident. The seatb elts are
designed for som e freedom o f m ovem ent
w hile th e car is in norm al o peration. But if the
brakes are suddenly applied, o r th e car stops
suddenly, th e seatb elt holds a p erso n securely
in his o r h e r seat. Anyone w h o has rid d e n in an
Audi w ith a seatb elt know s th at they just need
to pull o n th e b elt to o fast for it to lock up.
Most A m erican cars’ belts o p erate o n an in e r­
tia dev ice w h ich locks up th e belts o n c e the
car stops o r slow s suddenly.
Many p eo p le claim th at they co u ld brace
them selves in an accident, and th erefo re they
do n o t n e e d to w ear th e ir seatbelts. Yet in o r­
d e r to b ra c e yourself, you w o u ld n eed to be
incredibly strong. A su d d en sto p from thirty
miles p e r h o u r is roughly eq uivalent to taking
a sw an dive from a th ird story w indow . Even a
crash in a parking lo t can cause facial injury. If
you do n o t believe this, try w alking into a wall
at five m iles p e r h o u r and see if it hurts.
Every o n c e in a w hile, w e h ear a b o u t those
dreadful accid en ts w h ere th e car cau g h t on
fire o r becam e subm erged in w ater. People
use th ese accid en ts as an e x cu se for not
w earing th e ir seatbelts, saying they d o not
w ant to b e trap p ed inside. Yet the facts are
that accid en ts involving b o th fire and su b m er­
sion u n d e r w ate r acco u n t for only o ne p e r­
c e n t of all accidents. And even if you are
involved in su ch an accident, y o u r seatbelt
w ill p re v e n t you from being knocked u n c o n ­
scious so th a t you can escape quickly.
In addition, w e occasionally hear about
so m eo n e’s u n cle w h o was th ro w n from a car
and lived to tell about it. Well, that p erson
m ust b e in credibly lucky, for being th ro w n

ND student in Mexico describes life after disaster
In the afterm ath o f the tw o earthquakes that
struck h ere last m onth, everyday life for most
o f M exico City’s inhabitants has retu rn e d to
norm al. D em olition team s and bulldozers can
be seen sw arm ing over the rubble, reducing
the devastation to m ere bare p atches w here
tall buildings on ce stood.
Journalists and those o f the international
rescue m issions po in t to th e g o v ern m en t’s
m ishandling o f th e relief efforts. Many claim
co rrectly that the Mexican g o v ern m en t’s role
often has h am pered ra th e r than aided the
rescue operations. Lives w ere unnecessarily
lost, they say.
Chris B ow ler
O ne frustrated rescue w o rk er pleaded
desperately w ith his M exican c o u n terp a rts in
o rd e r to dig o u t bu ried survivors. Reportedly,
the M exican officials w ere anxious to begin
dem olition instead o f saving lives o u t o f the
fear of epidem ics from already-decaying
bodies.

Yet, som e of the 18 million people living in
this cro w d ed capital find their lives altered for
years to com e More than 400,000 M exicans
rem ain hom eless and face the p ro sp ect of
searching for low-cost tenem en ts in a city
w ith ch ro n ic housing shortages.
T housands dem onstrated in front o f the
President's Los Pinos residence last w eek
dem anding m ore governm ent assistance.
With their banners and signs held high, they
claim ed the governm ent has not been doing
enough for the hom eless and the hungry.
A nother rep o rt detailed the activities o f one
governm ent rescue official. After loading his
bus w ith m edical supplies, clothing and food,
he drove to his house and u nloaded the
supplies for personal profit later. Rescuers
assert that n eed ed supplies n ev er reached
th eir in ten d ed destinations. Some are asking
why, yet th e g overnm ent isn’t saying anyth­
ing.
The w ater shortage because of broken
pipelines in the city has strained th e province
of X ochim ilco, M exico’s “Venice," w here
channels feed w ater to lush agricultural areas
and to canals designed for to u rists’ boating
pleasures. Last w eek, farm ers co m plained that
p recio us w a te r left in X ochim ilco had been
d iv erted to w h e re th e to u rists are instead of
th e crops. The low w ater level, they continue,
th reaten s th e survival o f this y ear’s harvest. It
is an o th e r ex am p le o f adm inistrative m is­
m anagem ent at its peak.
The to p ic th at has sparked the m ost c o n ­
troversy is th e g o v ern m en t’s co n stru ctio n of
public buildings th at fell o r sustained heavy
damage. The fact that the m ajority of the
devastated buildings w ere governm entc o n stru c te d raises questions about th e in­
tegrity o f building in spectors and the
possibility o f c o rru p t go vernm ent co n tracters
taking sh o rt c u ts aro u n d the building codes.
The ad m inistration o f P resident Miguel de
la Madrid has p ro m ised investigation and
punishm ents, if necessary, but M exicans
are n ’t h olding th e ir breath.
In the m eantim e, M exico co n tin u es to dig
ou t and rebuild. Every tragedy has its m iracles
and th e d eb acle h e re is no exception. The ac­
co u n ts o f b u ried inhabitants surviving days
after the quakes, such as the new -born infants
pulled from the w reckage of Juarez hospital
inspires h ope am id so m uch destruction.
The way in w hich the w orld resp o n d ed to
M exico’s need proves that international
co operation can o vercom e political and
econom ic differences betw een nations.
Truly th e M exican peo p le dem o n strated
their courage and unity d u rin g this crisis.
They are th e heroes. Like all stories, how ever,
this one has its villains.
Those w h o used th eir positions o r w ealth to
realize th eir ow n personal gain often go u n ­
punished. They m ust b e im plicated. T he fol­
low ing w eeks will reflect the tru e efforts of
the g overnm ent to paint a different p ictu re in
this regard. Already m istakes have been m ade
that have w o rsen ed the effects o f this natural
disaster. The obligation o f the govern m en t is
to make sure that history will not b e repeated.

Senator points to CLC
and its shortcomings
D ear Editor:
I w ould like lo clear up the confusion about
th e Cam pus Life Council that has c lo u d ed the
issue o f disbanding the Student Senate.
First, the CLC cannot serve as a voice o f the
student body because it is not designed to do
so. The com position of the CLC is eight stu ­
dents, six recto rs and tw o faculty m em bers.
The students do not even have a m ajority o f
the scats. Do recto rs o r faculty m em bers
express the "legitimate ”voice o f the students?
Second, the CLC is far less accessible than is
the senate. Student governem n t’s co n stitu tio n
states clearly that the senate will m eet o n ce a
w eek during the school year. This enables any
student to bring an issue that c o n cern s him
w hile it still affects him. However, the CLC,
w hich has m et less than ten tim es in th e last
four years, does not have any such provision,
and th ere is no reason to assum e that it will
make one.
Finally, the pro p o n en ts o f the d isbandm ent
state that anything the senate d o es needs the
approval of the CLC. This is sim ply not tru e
The CLC docs not approve delegations sen t to
the trustees o r approve cabinet positions. It
d o es not w atch over the funds o f the stu d en t
body or question the prerogatives of the stu ­
d ent leaders; rather, the senate perform s these
needed functions.
M oreover, w hy should w e stop at just dis­
banding the Senate? We should disband the
CLC, too. Anything it approves can be vetoed
by Father Tyson and that falls in th e line w ith
the prevailing logic: if you cannot have your
way, you should quit.
I hope that the CLC is clearer now , and that
you realize that the CLC is n o t th e panacea
that has been described.

Basketball team loses
due to lack of tickets
D ear Editor:
N otre Dame constantly em phasizes th ro u g ­

tim e w h en NBC gave th e stu d en t body the

enthusiasm d u rin g th e broadcast o f o n e o f the
N otre Dame basketball games.
Too bad n o t all the stu d en ts will get to give
the team th eir su p p o rt this year.
The w hole distribution o f basketball tickets
was a farce. Even as I stood in line, it w as an ­
n o u n ced that all peo p le holding four ticket ap­
plications o r less w ould be able to receive
tickets. This p roved w rong. 1 step p ed up to
the w indow , b u t m anaged only to get one
ticket book for m yself and tw o friends. I
w alked o u t o f the ACC furious, bu t luckier
than most.
My p ro b lem is not w ith the c o n tin u ed
prom ises o f ticket availability. Rather, it is
w ith th e failure o f the adm inistration to
provide for th e stu d en t body, even though the
team has b een ranked in th e to p 20 by several
m ajor publications.
Several pro b lem s n eed to b e addressed
regarding this situation.
The adm inistration claim s th ere n ev er w as
such a g reat in terest in th e past in basketball;
therefore, th ere w as no way o f know ing that
the dem and this year w o u ld b e so heavy. True,
bu t tickets always should be reserv ed for stu ­
d en ts first. W hatever is left over c o u ld th en be
sold.
After all, w ho is it w ho stands th e w hole
game cheering? C ertainly n o t th e alum ni o r
the citizens o f South Bend. It is th e students.

active re p re se n ta tio n o r to find alternative
leadership th at w o u ld actively re p resen t the
stu d en t voice. O u r efforts have n o t failed. We
have achieved o u r goal. The c u rre n t lead er­
ship has v ow ed to actively and aggressively
rep re se n t th e stu d en t view.
T hrough o u r efforts, th e c u rre n t govern­

creative w ays o f rep resen tatio n . W e feel that
th e stu d e n ts w h o su p p o rte d th e recall effort
have show n th at they d o have a voice. We will
co n tin u e to have a voice, and w e feel the best
m eans is th ro u g h th e c u rre n t leadership.
Active re p re se n tatio n can only co m e about
w ith th e creativ e co n c e rn of all students, w ith
many voices ch an n eled thro u g h an effective
leader.
W ith stu d e n t activism as a driving force, the
c u rre n t stu d e n t g o v ern m en t can b e the ef­
fective lead ers w e need. Healy and Law rence
have already sat dow n w ith us to plan effective
m eans o f p ro test. W ith this idea in m ind, w e
have d ec id e d to disband th e c u rre n t recall ef­
fort. H ow ever, to co n tin u e active student
rep resen tatio n , w e urge that ev eryone vote in
th e referen d u m o n Tuesday. T he stu d en t
senate is a vital voice in stu d e n t governm ent.
It is the only truly rep resen tativ e body co m ­
prised solely o f stu d en ts that w e have. We can­
not co m p ro m ise this voice. To v o te in favor of
disbanding the senate w ould be to vote away
o u r voice in stu d e n t governm ent. Please vote
“n o ” on T uesday in o rd e r to preserve o u r
voice.
The recall effort was com prised not only of
us, but o f th e over 800 people w ho signed the
petition. Since 800 people cannot effectively
decide w hich d irectio n to p roceed, w e feel
this to be th e best recourse. The issue is not
dead. O u r fight will continue, albeit trans­
form ed. Feel free to call on us as w e pledge to
fu rth er voice legititim ate student concern.
We do not m ean to ignore the stu d en ts w ho
did sign in h o p e for a recall. If you feel strongly
enough, again, please call on us and w e will
reco n sid er o u r position.
Thank you for your su p p o rt and co n tin u ed

felt th ere w as a log jam. W ith Mark’s
natural abilty, w e had to find so m e­
w h ere for him to play. W e did the
sam e thing w ith A lonzo and felt sure
that it w o u ld w o rk w ith Mark as
w ell."
Indeed, it has w orked. G reen has
already seen action in five gam es and
has caught eig h t passes for 104
yards. In addition, h e has ru n th e ball
o utside on th re e occasions, picking
up 54 yards, in cluding a 40-yard
gainer in Saturday’s gam e against
Navy.
Did G reen have any idea he w ould
b e carrying as m u ch playing tim e as
he has?
“N ot at all. N ot by any m eans, ”
G reen explains. “I w as really
surprised becau se 1 d id n ’t think I
w as going to play m uch at all. I had
to change to flanker to stay o n th e
travelling squad and, hopefully, to
play. As it tu rn e d out, becau se of in­
juries (in particu lar to receiv er Tim
Brow n), I got th e chance.
“(T h e first re c e p tio n ) w as th e
best feeling I’ve ev er had in my life, ”
he continues. “And th e feeling really
never changes. W h en ev er I have the
o p p o rtu n ity to g et in th e re and th e
ball com es to m e I’m ex cited . ”
C oach Stock has n o th in g b u t
praise for th e freshm an, and rem ains
u n d ecid e d as to w h e th e r G reen w ill
m ove back to th e tailback p osition
n e x t season.
“H e’s d o n e a g reat job, ” Stock
says. “W e th o u g h t w e ’d give him a
ch an ce to g et his feet w et, and h e ’s
just played above all ex p ectatio n s as
a freshm an. H e’s very easy to coach.
He w orks hard, has d o n e a g reat job
adapting, and is learning as he goes
along.
“W e’ll w o rry a b o u t n e x t year
w h en it rolls around. T h ere are
m any factors to b e co n sid ered . As
for now , h e ’s d o in g an outstan d in g
job w h ere he is. ”
But ev en w ith G reen ’s natural
talent, step p in g in to th e football
program at N otre D ame w as by no
m eans easy.
“I found it to u g h co m in g in as a
freshm an and trying to c o n trib u te ,”
G reen says. “It gets b e tte r, though.
O nce you get used to th e system and
settle dow n, you start sm iling again. ”
If G reen ’s early play is any indica­

Irish retain hope after
losing weekend match
B y CHUCK EHRMAN
Sports Writer
The N otre Dame volleyball team
lost to DePaul last Sunday in
Chicago, b u t it’s n o t th e en d o f the
w orld. At least th a t’s acco rd in g to
Irish head coach Art Lambert and his
players.
A lthough d ro p p in g th e m atch
w ith the Blue D em ons in four gam es
(15-10, 1511, 7-15, 15-10) disap­
p o in ted L am bert’s troops, th e 9-16
Irish still have h o p e because they
may get an o th e r shot to play c o n ­
ference foe De Paul in th e upcom ing
N orth Star C onference tournam ent.
Before the Irish play in any
tournam ents, how ever, th ey m ust
face Valparaiso Thursday at 8 p.m. at
the ACC. After this and a Nov. 12
m atch w ith Purdue, th en N otre
Dame can w o rry about th e NSC
tournam ent.
W hile th e Blue D em ons clin ch ed
th e to p seed in this to u rn am en t w ith
Sunday’s victory, N otre Dame fell to
5-2 in the con feren ce, good enough
for a seco n d place tie w ith Loyola
and Butler. And Lam bert isn’t c o m ­
plaining m uch ab o u t that.
“O bviously I w as really disap­
p o in te d th at w e lost, ” said Lambert.
“But it’s n o t like w e d o n ’t have a
great o p p o rtu n ity to tu rn things
aro u n d w h en it counts, and th a t’s at
th e league to u rn am en t. ”
At th e NSC to u rn am en t, w hich
will take place Nov. 15-16 in St.
Louis, Mo., it’s a w h o le n ew balIgame. M uch o f w hat o c c u rre d
du rin g th e season, good o r bad,
really do es n o t m atter e x c e p t for
p u rp o ses o f seeding. This is good for
th e Irish, for they may get th e ir w ish
o f an o th e r ch an ce to d e th ro n e c o n ­
ference king DePaul from its pedastal.
But, again, any visions of
c o n feren ce glory m ust co m e after
th e Valparaiso m atch on Thursday.
The Irish w ill b e looking to im prove
th e ir season m ark and stay in to p
form for any future m atches they
may play. H opefully for Lambert,
they will get th e ir w ish against Val­
paraiso, w h ich finished last y ear’s
season w ith a 6-27 record.

Farley and P.E. win games, set up Sunday final
B y FRANK HUEMMER
Sports Writer
If the playoffs are any indication of
w hat to exp ect, th e w o m en ’s flag
football cham pionship gam e this
Sunday at 2 p.m. in N otre Dame
Stadium should be a real b a rn ­
burner. Farley and Pasquerilla East
will m eet in th e finals after w inning
close gam es o v er Lyons and
Pasquerilla W est respectively.
Farley im p ro v ed its rec o rd to 8-0
w ith a 14-8 o v ertim e win. Lyons
jum ped o u t to an 8-0 lead by scoring
w ith less than o n e m inute rem aining
in the first half. Farley cam e back to
tie the gam e at 8-8, how ever, w h en
Joanna Branick to o k a pass from
q uarterb ack Marilu Almeida and
raced 40 yards in to th e en d zone for
th e score.
In the o vertim e, b o th team s got
o ne ch an ce to sc o re from th e five
yard-line. Farley receiv ed th e ball
first and sc o re d as Almeida ran th e
ball aro u n d end. Lyons th e n to o k
possession o f th e ball b u t failed to
sco re as th e Farley defense m ade a
goal-line stand.
A lthough his team cam e away
w ith th e victory, Farley co ach Pete
Janicki praised Lyons’ perform ance.
“You can ’t take anything away
from Lyons, ” said Janicki. “They are
a very good team and d eserv ed to
have a lot b e tte r re c o rd than they
d id .”
He later ad d ed that th e Farley fans
played a big role in th e game.
“The fans o n th e Farley side really
m ade a difference in helping us play
b e tte r in th e seco n d half,” said
Janicki. “They riled us up and go t the
w hole team pum ped. They really
help ed to change th e m o m en tu m of
th e game. ”
M eanwhile, th e seco n d c o n test on
th e day’s sch ed u le featured many
shifts o f m o m en tu m as P.E. w as able
to outlast P.W. by a score of 26-22.
P.W. sco red th e first tw o to u c h ­
dow ns o f th e gam e to take an early
16-0 lead. P.E. sto rm ed back,
how ever, b eh in d the right arm of
q u arterb ack C olleen D onnelly w ho
fired tw o long to u c h d o w n passes to
run n in g back Annie Schrenk to make
it 16-14 at th e half.
In the seco n d half, P.E. again w as
led by D onnelly w h o tossed a to u c h ­
dow n pass to w ide receiv er Regi
R ichter to m ake it 20-14. P.W.
regained th e lead soon after, though,
scoring to m ake it 22-20 in its favor.
Still, P.E. w as n o t to be d en ied the
v ictory as th e gam e w inning score
cam e on y et a n o th e r pass from D on­
nelly to Richter. This one forged the
26-22 final.
W hen it w as all over, it was again a
case o f th e w in n in g co ach heaping
praise o n th e losing team . East’s
coach Dave H aimes felt P.W. played
a tough gam e thro u g h o u t.
“I can ’t com plain, ” said Haimes.
“P.W. really played a great game.
They have an explosive offense that
gave us a lot o f trouble.
“Any team could have w on that
game today. We just happened to
have o n e e x tra big play. ”
Later, H aimes praised his team ’s
offensive perform ance
“O u r offense definitely carried us.
It w as o u r best offensive p erfo r­
m ance o f the
year
C olleen
(D o n n elly ) m ust have throw n for
500 y a rd s .”
“The
defense
finally
cam e
through w h en it c o u n ted ,” c o n ­
tin u ed Haimes. "N ow, w e need to
keep up th e m om entum into the
cham pionship gam e.”
M om entum should not be a
problem for eith e r team in the final
o n Sunday, for the cham pionship is
w hat b o th team s have been w orking
for all season.
"I’m looking forw ard to playing I
P E ,” n o ted Farley m en to r Janicki.
“D efensively they are very sim ilar to I
us. Offensively, they have th e best
offensive line o f any team in th e |
league.
“H ow ever, th e ex citem en t a n d l
enthusiasm in Farley is becom ing a n l
unstoppable thing. O u r girls really#
w ant to win, and playing in th e !
stadium will be w hat w e’ve w orked |
all year to do.”
Pasquerilla East's co ach Haimes,]
m eanw hile, is p rep arin g his team for ]
an upset o f u n d efeated Farley.
“Everyone has picked Farley to ]
take it all,” said Haimes. “They have a |
lot o f talent, b u t w e will be p ractic­
ing real hard. O u r team will be ready
to m eet the challenge
Ready o r not, this show dow n will I
be a very in terestin g m atchup and |
should provide a lot o f excitem ent.
He makes necessary adjustments
Freshman Green answers questions

F reshm an fla n k e r M a rk G reen h a s le ft f e w q u e stio n s a b o u t h is
a b ility to c o n tr ib u te to the N otre D a m e fo o tb a ll team desp ite his
su d d en p resea so n p o sitio n sw itc h fr o m ta ilb a c k to receiver. M arty
Strasen fe a tu r e s the versatile a th le te a t right.
W hen Mark G reen w as recru ited
by th e football staff at N otre Dame, a
n u m b er o f q u estio n s rem ained u n ­
answ ered. And w hile som e have not
yet b e en solved, the freshm an’s
future w ith th e Irish looks b rig h ter
every tim e he steps o n to th e field.
T he 6 foot, 183-pounder was
am ong th e to p 100 incom ing fresh­
m an in th e n ation acco rd in g to The
Sporting News, and w as nam ed to a
n u m b er o f all-America team s after
his sen io r year at Riverside Poly
High School in Riverside, California.
G reen w as a stan d o u t receiv er
during his high sch o o l career, and
decisions had to be m ade w h en he
w as re c ru ite d by th e Irish as a tail­
back.
“Flanker w as my position in high
school," says G reen. “W hat h ap ­
p e n e d was th at I ran the ball q u ite a
bit on reverses, c o u n te r traps, and
things like that. I’d d o a lo t o f outsid e
running, b u t I n ev er played tail­
b a c k .”
The sp e e d ste r certainly took full
advantage o f his o p p o rtu n ities to
ru n w ith th e ball, averaging o v er 11
yards p e r carry during his junior and
senior years and com piling 1,035
and 1,384 yards respectively. G reen
was th e Big Five C onference player
of the year in 1984 and a tw o tim e
All California
Interscholastic
Federation, all-county, and all­
co n ference player.
To add to th e confusion for c o l­
lege coaches, G reen p ro v ed to be a
solid defensive back during his high
school career. His 10 in tercep tio n s
in a season and 21 c a reer pick offs
set school records.
“C oach (R o n ) H udson had been
recru itin g m e all along,” notes
Green. “They got the w ord about me
as a defensive back, b u t Coach H ud­
son review ed som e films and said
that I w as a b e tte r offensive player
than I w as defensively. N otre Dame
and N ebraska w ere th e only schools
that told m e that ”
This seem s surprising in light of
his perform ance th u s far at N otre
Dame, as w ell as th e fact that G reen
w as invited o n recru itin g visits to
strong football schools like Was­
hington, UCLA, and USC, to nam e a
few. But the decision to offer G reen
a position on the Irish offense
becam e unanim ous w hen head
coach G erry Faust w atched him
scam per for to u ch d o w n s o f 70 and
50 yards in a playoff gam e last year.
“They re c ru ite d me, m ore o r less,
as an athlete, and let me make up my
m ind w h e th e r I w anted to play of­
fense o r defense,” says Green. “They
told m e they w anted m e to com e
and give tailback a sh o t and that if I
d id n ’t like it I could m ove over to
the secondary. In th e m iddle o f the
sum m er 1 said, T w ant to give tail­
back a shot.’ 1 figured it w ould be
easier going in as an offensive player
and sw itchin g to defense than it
w ould be going in as a defensive
player and sw itching to offense.”
A nother sw itch w as still ahead for
G reen, how ever. The decision to
m ove him to flanker was finalized
tw o w eeks before the Irish o p ened
the season at Michigan, and has since
proved advantageous to both G reen
and N otre Dame. Offensive c o o r­
dinator Mike Stock can attest to that.
“He w as an outstanding all­
p u rp o se player in high school,”
Stock says. “To have Allen Pinkett,
