Give 'em Hell! Go Horns Go! That is the official phrase in the Texas fight song. It is not, however, the one most students attending football games use, and Longhorn Band Director Glenn Richter would like to see that changed. Richter sent a memo Monday to the University's Rally Advisory Committee expressing concern over the use of the phrase "Make 'em eat shit," which some students substi tute for "Go Horns Go." The memo also states that the fight song may be replaced if stu dents do not cooperate with at tempts to end the phrase's use. * "These words are embarrassing for the school, the band and the stu dent body," Richter's memo stated. Richter said he wants the rally committee to encourage students to sing the song as written. "The incorrect w ords m is represent our state, and can be clearly understood over the radio/ TV. Without some measure of coop eration, the Longhorn Band may opt for the trumpet interlude or Grandioso/Calypso/Wabash as the 'fight song,' " the memo states. Richter said he currently is not considering eliminating the fight song from the band's playlist, but that such a move may become an option. "I don't think anybody wants to be in the position of making a choice like that," he said. The use of the term "hell" in the song also has kindled complaints, Richter said, and its use is a "sensi tive issue." f He said he will not make a deci sion about the fight song without the input of students and football officials. John R a in es, Texas th e Cheerleaders microphone leader, said he and other cheerleaders agree with Richter's stance. "We're adamantly opposed 'make them eat shit,' " Raines said. to "We're here to learn and to get an education and to better ourselves and we should try to portray that image," he said. Raines said Richter's suggestion met with approval at a Monday af ternoon rally committee meeting. The Student Involvement Com mittee will issue fliers to students to persuade them to sing the words as written, Raines said. UT officials and student leaders have tried before — unsuccessfully — student attitudes toward the song, Raines said. to change "We plan to get it taken care of once and for all this time," he said. Some students said Monday they disagree with Richter. "That's taking all the fun out of it," said Torrance Kelly, a business sophomore. Refusing to play the fight song would be "kind of like censorship," Kelly said. Melinda Jolly, an art junior, said she believes attempts to stop stu dents from modifying the song are "kind of judgmental." "Everyone who says it knows it's just in good fun," Jolly said. "I think students are still going to use that quote." "I think they should continue to keep playing the song," she said. "It's like a part of UT." Soviets halt Afghan troop withdrawal Associated Press UNITED NATIONS - Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze said Tuesday that the pul- lout of more than 1 tX),000 Red Armv troops from Afghanistan has been suspended because of al leged violations of a U .N .-negotiated accord. In a speech earlier I uesdav to the 43rd G ener al Assembly, Shevardnadze proposed that the five perm anent members of the Security Council meet to discuss violations of the withdrawal agreem ent. "As soon as Soviet troops began to w ithdraw a non-stop production line of violations was set in m otion," he said. Shevardnadze later told reporters the Soviets have suspended their pullout. "We have completed the first stage of our w ithdraw al," he said, speaking through a tnms- lator. "We have not yet begun the second stage of withdrawal questions. Let's wait and see, and I raised several question in my speech today. It is necessary to stop the violations that take place. It is the most im portant thing,” he said. The Soviet Union has filed num erous com plaints to the United Nations alleging that Paki stan is allowing U.S.-backed guerrillas to contin ue launching raids into Afghanistan from bases m Pakistan. "This cannot be allowed to happen. The chain of conflict settlem ent generated by Afghanistan m ust not be allowed to break," Shevardnadze said. "W e're not complaining to anyone. We have the m eans to make things fail into place. But we are responsible to the United Nations, and there- fore are appealing to it," he said. Soviet troops entered Afghanistan in Decem ber 1979 to replace one Marxist governm ent with another. The United States has supplied arm s to Moslem troops fighting the Marxist governm ent of President Najib. Under the accords signed April 14 in Geneva, the Soviet Union agreed to w ithdraw half of its 100,000 troops from Afghanistan by Aug. 15 and the rem ainder by Feb. 15, 1989. The agreem ent was signed by the Soviet Un ion, the United States, Pakistan and the Afghan government. The guerrillas were not party to the talks. Under the accord, Afghanistan and Pakistan agreed not to interfere in each others' internal affairs. Pakistan has denied aiding the guerrillas. Shevardnadze said Pakistan and Afghanistan the proposed Security invited to should be Council meeting. U.S. Secretary' of State George Shult/ told a news conference in New York Tuesday that the Security Council could meet Friday to discuss violations of the Geneva accords, but that the United States does not recognize the Afghan government. Kirkpatrick urges new world role for U.S. By KAREN ADAMS Daily Texan Staff Former U.N. Am bassador jeane Kirkpatrick called Tuesday for the United States to "build a new role" for itself in the world be cause of the rise of other powers. Kirkpatrick, who received three standing ovations from the cam pus crowd of about 1,350, spoke on the changing balance of pow er worldwide and the challenges the United States faces as a result of the power shift. She said that while she does not think the United States is in inevi table decline, she does believe the shift away from a bipolar world focused on superpowers the toward a multi-polar world with multiple diplomatic players is "ir reversible." "I believe our future is ahead of us," Kirkpatrick said. She cited closer U.S.-Soviet rela tions, greater cooperation betw een European powers and economic growth in Asia as indicators of the multi-polar trend. Increased economic cooperation betw een the United States' West ern European allies will potentially create more problem s with trade. "What happens when your best friends form a club you can't join?" she asked. The multi-polar nature of cur rent world affairs also creates de fensive problems not only for the United States and the Soviet Un ion, but also for many Middle Eastern and Third World coun tries, she said in a lecture spon sored by the Texas Union Distin guished Speakers' Committee and the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs. Kirkpatrick used as an example the advances in intercontinental ballistic missile technology and the missiles' potential to deliver nucle ar and chemical w eapons. "ICBMs have rendered our country more vulnerable than at anv time in its history," she said, l he United States and Soviet U n ion recently have engaged in dis cussions about limiting the spread of the technology. " 'Good luck' is my response to said. that new s," Kirkpatrick "That genie is out of the bottle.' At a reception afterw ard, Kirk patrick said she did not think the United N ations would be any more successful in negotiating for 1CBM reductions. "W hat the U.N. is good at doing is helping with negotiations after the parties involved agree in p rin ciple.'' she said at the function sponsored by the ''ioung C onserv the Union atives of Texas and "I don't speakers' committee. think they can bring about an agreem ent." Kirkpatrick's message received mixed reviews. Marc Salomon a governm ent senior, said there was "nothing new " in Kirkpatrick's words. Bill Eason, an economics senior, said he could not believe the Uni versity would "w aste so much m oney" by bringing Kirkpatrick to cam pus for $22,500. "I feel like it was a rip-off,” Fason said. "It sounds like som e thing she could say to the PTA." But Paul Bartley, Young C on servatives of Texas chairm an, said he thought Kirkpatrick "w as well w orth the money " Former U.N.

The jury deliberated about 20
minutes before returning the verdict
against Orlando Garza, 24. The pan

Garza had asked the jury for pro

Candle linked
to Houston fire
HOUSTON — A fire that killed
two children and injured seven oth
ers apparently was started by a can
dle used to light an apartment
where electricity was shut off dur
ing eviction proceedings, authori
ties said.
The two-alarm fire sw ept through
the 26-unit Sands A partm ents in
southeast H ouston M onday night,
killing a 4-year-old girl and her 14-
year-old neighbor, Fire Departm ent
officials said.
LaToya Jenkins, 4, and Alicia An-
tonette Brown, 14, were killed and
the younger child^ father and two
sisters, ages 2 and 3, were taken to
Ben Taub Hospital in good condi
tion.
The two children suffered sec
ond-degree bum s, said Fire D epart
m ent spokesm an Mike Warnke.
Four firefighters also were taken
to hospitals, including three treated
for heat exhaustion and D.J. Ko-
phstiner, who was treated for bum s
on his elbows and shoulders.
The fire started in the Jenkins'
ground-floor apartm ent and spread
quickly, W arnke
said. Eighteen
units were destroyed and five more
were heavily dam aged. Damage
was estim ated at $400,(XX), he said.
“ From what we understand, all
the electricity in that apartm ent unit
had been cut off by m anagem ent,"
Warnke said. “The family in A part

had no electricity, so they were us

MONTERREY, Mexico — A six-story ap artm en t
building on a steep hillside collapsed Tuesday, killing
a man and his baby son and leaving at least to u r p eo
ple trapped in the rubble, officials said
Authorities said the building m ay have been w eak

industrial city on Sept. 17 and caused w id esp read
flooding that killed at least 140 peo p le in the area.
The building crumbled at 9 a.m . and part of it
spilled dow n the m ountainside. At least four people
were rescued after the collapse, said state prosecutor
Alejandro Garza Garza.
The lower floors of the 3-year-old building p a n
caked atop one another but the top three levels slid
about 250 feet dow n the hillside.

WASHINGTON — Abu Nidal, after lying low in

Paul Bremer, ambassador-at-large for counterterror

incidents appears to be headed for a record level of
1,000 this year, although the number of Americans
killed in such attacks has fallen.
Abu Nidal, a Palestine-born terrorist w h ose real

sponsoring m achine-gun attacks w hich killed 22 peo
ple at the Rome and Vienna airports in December
1985, Bremer said.

TV debate sponsors snub third-party candidates
T he real gaffe of Sunday's presidential debate
had little to do with George Bush or Michael
Dukakis. Instead, the media themselves com
mitted a blunder so serious that it amounts to an
egregious offense to justice and democracy.
1 he debate organizers' decision not to allow
"third-party" candidates to participate in the nation
ally televised event — and the media's unquestion
ing acceptance of that decision — reinforce the domi
nance of an inherently elitist, unjust and confining
two-party system. It also contributes to the general
lack of intellectual interest afflicting this year's presi
dential contest.
\ et in spite of the two major parties' lock on media
coverage, 1 ibertarian Party nominee Ron Paul cur
rently is on the presidential ballot in 47 states, and
Independent Party candidate Lenora Fulani is on the
ballot in all r^0 states and has qualified for federal
matching funds..From state to state, both Fulani and
Paul have made impressive progress in battling
through red-tape signature and funding laws that
hamper and discourage third-party candidates.
! hat these candidates actually have succeeded in
putting their names on the ballot indicates that
they've legitimately generated enough interest to jus
tify their participation at any presidential debate.
Political analysts say, however, that people who
would vote for Paul or Fulani aren't necessarily sup
porting the third-party candidates, but are merely
voting against Bush and Dukakis. But this is spurious
reasoning.
Yes, dissatisfaction with the two major parties
does indeed translate into votes for third parties, but
this in no way makes third-party candidates less le
gitimate. Nor can this kind of analysis justify the
presumption that voters never support third-party
candidates for positive reasons.
Why not have more choice in our presidential elec
tions? Variety eliminates the "one way or the other
dilemma" and the "I'm voting for the lesser of two
evils" attitude. It also gives more ideological balance
to an already narrowing political spectrum.
The argument that Fulani and Paul are non-candi
dates because they have no chance of winning
against Dukakis and Bush does make a certain sense
— after all, these candidates are never allowed a
chance to compete with the established major parties.
Without media cooperation, they'll never be able to
present their ideas to the millions of viewers the Re
publican and Democratic candidates were able to
reach Sunday night.
Fulani and Paul deserve the opportunity to prove
that there are indeed viable alternatives to Republi
cans and Democrats both economically and ideologi
cally.
But we'll never know if these determined third-
party candidates could upstage Bush and Dukakis,
because they'll never be allowed on stage in the first
place.

Shakespeare at Winedale story demonstrates how facts can mislead
Between The Lines is a column designed to ex
plain unusual or controversial decisions or stories
affecting what UT students read and see each day in
The Daily Texan.
If you read 1 uesday's Daily Texan story about the
Shakespeare at Winedale program's funding difficul
ties ("To be or not to be: Winedale faces debt"), you
probably drew the conclusion that the program, in
which students study Shakespeare plays by perform
ing them, was teetering on the brink of financial col
lapse.
This is not the case. Due to our reporter's misin
terpretation of many facts collected during his re
search, the story misrepresented the financial status
of the program, which is conducted at the Universi
ty's Winedale Historical Center in Winedale, Texas. It
also suggested that Shakespeare at Winedale founder
James Ayres, a professor of English, has serious dif
ferences with UT administrators over the support
they have given the program.
In addition to including some factual errors, which
are listed in the correction box on page one, the story
focused on the fact that the program has operated at
a deficit this year and last year. This made the pro
gram look as if it were treading on dangerous finan
cial ground; the story did not mention, however, that
operating in the red at various times during the year
has long been part of the program's funding cycle.
"The reports of my debt are greatly exaggerated,"
Ayres said Tuesday night in a telephone interview.
Ayres typically divides his attention each year be
tween directing the program and raising funds for it.
The story stated that Ayres' fund-raising efforts this
year were "forced" by lack of funds; in fact, Ayres
does private fund-raising every year.
The story also discussed the program's $230,000
endowment, which was established in 1985 through
private donations and matching UT System funds.
Although the story correctly stated that earnings
from the endowment do not meet the program's ex
penses and that earnings have been lower in recent
years, the recent decline in endowment earnings
poses no unusual threat to the program's existence,
despite what the story implied.
In discussing Shakespeare at W inedale's relation
ship with the College of Liberal Arts, the story sug
gested a difference of opinion between Ayres and
liberal arts Dean Robert King over the relative impact
of declining endowment earnings on the program. In
fact, Ayres agrees with King that the Shakespeare
program faces the same problems of declining earn
ings as other University-endowed academic pro
grams.
"N ot only do I agree with him ," Ayres said Tues
day night, "but I regard what he's done for the pro
gram very highly."
The Texan regrets any misunderstandings this story
may have caused.

American youth should read
more news, fewer TV guides
I n the midst of his libel lecture to an auditorium
full of aspiring Daily Texan staffers a couple of
weeks ago, Mike Quinn, assistant dean of the
College of Communication, looked a bit befuddled.
At the mention of several prominent issues of the
day, Quinn was drawing an unsettling number of
blank stares from the large group of students inter
ested in editing and writing for one of the nation's
top collegiate dailies. Finally he was annoyed, or per
haps appalled, enough to stop and ask a very pecu
liar question: "D on't you people read the newspa
per?"
Obviously, there are some who do not. As as
tounding as it seems, a truthful show of hands may
have been even more difficult to bear. How can peo
ple possess the intellectual capacity and academic
credentials to get into the University, vet be so woe
fully uninformed regarding the day-to-day events
that shape our world? By this stage in the education
game, the habit of reading the dailv newspaper
should be as ingrained as going to class, taking some
thing to write with and staying awake.
At a time when high schools across the country are
cutting loose graduates who can't state, with any real
certainty, which continent Austria belongs to or that
the Sandinistas are not a team in the Mexican Base
ball League, the ignorance of current events many
college students exhibit today simply magnifies the
crisis in cultural literacv facing the nation.
In Cultural Literacy, which rocked the nation's edu
cation establishment when published early last year,
E.D. Hirsch Jr. focuses on the dramatic decline in the
cultural literacy of the youth of America. He writes:
"The research I was doing on the reading and writing
abilities of college students made me realize two
things. First, we cannot assume the voung people
today know things that were known in the past bv
almost every literate person in the culture For in
stance, in one experiment conducted in Richmond,
Virginia, our seventeen- and eighteen-year-old sub
jects did not know who Grant and Lee were
He continues: "Second, our results caused me to
realize we cannot treat reading and writing as empty
skills, independent of specific knowledge. The read
ing skill of a person may vary greatly from task to
task. The level of literacy exhibited in each task de
pends on the relevant background information that
the person possesses.” In other words, if you know
more to begin with, it is much easier to acquire and
comprehend new information
Is there anvthing that can be done to initiate a
turnabout? The distinguished American historian
P a t C o sg r o v e
TEXAN COLUMNIST
Henrv Steel Commager, a few years back, proposed
that all students be given a subscription to The Neu}
York Titties over the four vears of their college studies.
"H alf would read it,” he said, "and that would solve
our problems."
While the Board of Regents would probably sooner
okay subscriptions to National Laniftoon
than the
limes. Commager's point is obvious: Students must
seek the information that matters, from the best
sources available. They must eschew television as
their sole source of current events. Simply put, stu
dents must read!
Certainh this all sounds absurd to people who at
least read The Texan every dav on campus, or sub
scribe to the Austin American-Statesman. But for those
who grab a newspaper solely to find out who's play
ing at Antone's Club this weekend or to check the
movie schedule, there is cause for concern. What will
a college degree mean to those who haven't even
managed to reach a basic level of cultural literacy? Far
less than it should.
If it is not vet in the daily regimen, starting tomor
row, pick up the best newspaper possible, and read it
cover to cover It might be hard to find time at first,
but consider it as important as eating right, exercis
ing, paving bills on time and voting. As mothers
would sav "Good habits are often as difficult to start
as bad ones are to break."
But think of the potential benefits, like becoming
exponentially better at Trivial Pursuit. Happy hour
conversational abilities will be elevated beyond the
merits of the latest Beastie Boys album or who Letter-
man savaged
l ast night. There will be less head-
scratching during lectures on events and issues of the
day which have seen columns ot explanation and
analy sis m print And more significantly, by becom
ing an informed member of the campus community,
the door opens to the possibility of knowledgeably
participating in public debate and the exchange of
ideas.
Inquiring minds should strive to know.

tions.
Over the last several decades, the Amer

this "lesser of two evils" doctrine, and
brought into office a generally disliked
president. Though briefly diminished by
the Reagan dynasty of the past eight
years, this phenomenon has been growing
steadily as the Democrats and Republicans
But there is another choice.
The young and energetic Libertarian
Party supports minimal governmental in
volvement in private affairs and the aboli
tion of victimless crimes. According to Li
b e rta ria n s ,
th e o n ly p u rp o se of
government is the protection of the indi
vidual from force or fraud initiated by an
other.
Economically,
this means businesses
should be entitled to free and unrestrained
trade. When two individuals or businesses
freely enter into any transaction, the gov
ernment has no right to interfere. Income
tax, sales tax, trade regulation legislation,
protective tariffs and minimum wage laws
should thus be abolished. The individuals
involved, rather than the protective hand
of the government, should decide the pur
pose and nature of any transaction. To the
Libertarians, the right to free enterprise is
intrinsic within the right to pursuit of hap
On the personal level, the Libertarians
believe the right to self-sovereignty to be
absolute as long as no harm is initiated
upon another. The government has no
right to legislate morality, and any such
existing legislation should be eliminated.
While certain practices, such as gambling,
failing to obey the speed limit or failure to
fasten seat belts, may indicate poor judg
ment, to give the government the power
to regulate these acts is to presume that
"the government knows b est." As soon as
this admission is made, any freedom be
comes subject to the whim of the govern
ment. Clearly, such an arrangement can
not be permissible in a free society.
In the past, the Libertarian Party has
been unable to obtain a foothold in Ameri
can politics because of both bureaucratic
constraints on third parties, and the gener
al unawareness of the American voter.
The argument usually goes: "W hy should

Rape not a m an's right
I was rather surprised to see a person
defending a man's right to rape a woman.
Kevin Fain, in his letter ("Fetus' rights
transcend w om en's," Firing Line, Thurs
day), seemed to feel that any man had the
right, at any time, to suppress a woman's
needs and desires, to take away control of
her own body and to degrade and demean
her into performing a very private and in
timate act that she does not want to per
form. This is rape. Fain also seems to think
it is just dandy that the courts allow men
to do this.
Fain was addressing the issue of fathers'
"rig h t" to a fetus. The original article by
Dee Ann Bullard (" 'Fathers rights' tactic
demeans w om en," The Daily Texan, Sept.
20) quite nicely presented the fact that the
men "raping" women who chose to vol
untarily abort their fetus were estranged
husbands. In other words, the men had
already decided they did not want a family
life with that woman. To come back and
rape her is the final degradation. To get
the courts to agree with the ex-husband is
an abomination.
It should be up to each single woman to
examine her own religious beliefs and
make her own decisions. The man who
walked out on her should have no say. Let
him find some other woman who will tol
erate his genes in her child, if he can.

Wright's revelations right
Thank goodness someone in government
is honest enough to tell the public the
truth about secret wars and plots to over
throw other governments.
I am speaking of House Speaker Jim
Wright, whose revelations about the CIA
instigation of civil unrest in Nicaragua
were given a sudden "spin" by leading
Republicans and their handmaids, the me
dia, who love a tidy press release. We are
to believe, it seems, that it is unpatriotic
and subversive to tell facts about heinous
immorality conducted at the taxpayers' ex
pense — our dealings with Nicaragua are
full of them.
Millions of concerned peace activists,
Christians and skeptics have been follow
ing the real story behind our administra
tion's propaganda for years. To enlighten
the uninformed, attending a meeting of a
group like the Central America Peace Initi
ative or a reading of a book like In Search of
Enemies by John Stockwell, the highest
ranking CIA official to go public with his
story, could do wonders.
Let us hope that the electorate this year
will choose a style of governing which in
forms and educates, as Dukakis' does,
rather than one which hides and lies, as
Bush's does.

looks the recent development of self

this has on the dissemination of diverse
news, information and ideas. The last few
years have seen the local advent of numer

This trend toward media proliferation is
also evident in television. Certainly, more

American politics, and begin to vote on a

its members. Clearly, particularly in this
election, only a vote for one of the major
parties can be considered a "w asted" vote.
And if you still don't think the Libertari

Farmers risk increased soil erosion
Associated Press
DES MOINES,
Iowa — The
drought of 1988, which withered
crops and is reducing fall harvests,
now is leading to warnings of
heightened risks of soil erosion be
fore next spring's plantings.
C om and soybean harvests are
proceeding at a record pace in
Iowa as farmers try to prevent fur
ther dam age to crops that survived
the drought, and conservationists
said Tuesday they are concerned
that will accelerate the schedule of
fall tilling and other field work.
"T here's a definite correlation
between plowing or tilling in the
fall and moisture loss," said James
Gulliford, director of the Soil Con
servation Division of the Iowa De
partm ent of Agriculture. "T h e best
way to conserve that m oisture is
not to till."
Stripping away the residue of
the last crop and turning the dirt
over alw ays carries with it the risk
that wind and w ater erosion will
carry off exposed topsoil.
"B u t this year's drought left the
soil drier than usual. That m eans if
the land is plowed it will be esp e
cially vulnerable to wind ero sio n ,"
said Jim A yen, state resource con
servationist for the Soil C onserva

He said that in addition to unu
sually dry conditions, drought
dam age to crops reduced the resi
due left in the soil after the har
vest, cutting the natural protection
available to soil that is left un

Dry soil also is vulnerable to
greater than usual w ater erosion.
"Each little raindrop is like a lit

he said.
Gulliford said fall field work is
often prom pted by a belief that
some soil types can be better pre

crop residue and turning the soil
over, a practice he does not believe
is supported by research.

Love Canal declared safe after decade wait
Associated Press
NIAGARA FALLS, N .Y . — State health offi
cials declared Tuesday that it is safe for hun
dreds of former residents to return to Love
Canal, the neighborhood that became world fa
mous for chemical contamination.
The state health commissioner, Dr. David Ax
elrod, said most areas of Love Canal contain no
more chemicals than other neighborhoods in the
industrial city.
The long-awaited finding was hailed by Love
Canal residents who feared that the neighbor
hood would not be resettled but would be left
vacant as a symbol of environm ental disaster.
"W e'v e been waiting for this for 10 y ears,"
said Nunzio LoVerdi, w ho lived in a housing
project in Love Canal. "I'll be the first to move
back."
As part of the state ruling, a task force of local
officials will create a plan to resettle the com m u
nity and assist hom eow ners in renovating their
hom es, many of which have fallen into disre
pair.
H undreds of families had been aw aiting the

Official enrollment numbers surpass predictions
T h e Da il y T e x a n
By GENEZ WAITE
Daily Texan Staff
Undergraduate enrollment increased 5
percent this semester despite UT interest in
curbing the figures, according to prelimi
nary 12th-day enrollment statistics issued
Monday by the Office of Admissions.
Total preliminary enrollment this fall
stood at 50,107 with preliminary under
graduate enrollment of 38,144 students,
compared to a total fall 1987 enrollment of
47,743 and fall 1987 undergraduate enroll
ment of 36,195.
The total number of students surpassed
the Office of Admissions' estimate of 49,500
by almost 600 students.
Augustine Garza, deputy director of ad
missions, said the office's first estimate was
low because officials did not have a handle
on the number of continuing students or
the number of students returning from a
previous semester.
"W e knew there were going to be more
new and more provisional students — the
numbers kept telling us th at," Garza said.
The numbers of continuing students and
returning students also increased, helping
account for the unprecedented enrollment.
Although the University would like to
curtail the total number of students, Garza
said he has not been told to limit the num
ber of entering freshmen.
If the University imposes a ceiling on the
number of entering freshmen next fall, Gar
za said students ineligible for automatic ad
mission might be admitted in the summer
under other programs.
Garza also said the University has no
plans to change the provisional enrollment
program, which admits students who
would otherwise be ineligible for admis
sion. "Nobody's going to be told 'No,' " he
said.
Another group that increased this semes
ter was first-time students who started
school in the summer and are now continu
ing at the University, Garza said.
Neil Hartman, associate director of ad
missions, has attributed the rise in enroll
ment to the state's slow economy. He has
said students who would have gone to out-
of-state schools five years ago are now con
sidering the value of education at in-state
universities.
Hartman also said that a new, stricter ad
missions policy caused a temporary in
crease in the number of incoming fresh
men.
The policy allows a case-by-case review
for students who do not meet academic re
quirements for automatic admission. Hart
man said the University was not as strict in
this year's review process as it will be in the
future, because the policy changed in the
middle of the application season.
He said everyone will be aware of the
new criteria next fall.
Demand for
off-campus
housing up
By GERARD FARRELL
Daily Texan Staff
Swelling UT enrollment figures have increased stu
dent demand for off-campus housing, driving the cost
up, Austin real-estate agents said Tuesday.
"Housing prices have gone up; availability is very,
very slim ," said Jody Lockshin, owner of Habitat
Hunters, an apartment locater service. "There's not
much out there for those who are still looking."
Apartment prices have increased by approximately
5 percent since last year, she said.
Lockshin said many students waited until late this
summer to start apartment hunting, rather than pre
leasing in the spring. That decision has left many stu
dents still looking for an affordable apartment, she
said.
‘ Back in June, 75- to 100-unit com
plexes had 30 vacancies. Now they
have five.1
— Thomas Thompson, president
of Thomas G. Thompson Realtors
"They hoped to find a good deal after classes start
ed. Now the selection is not as good,' she said.
'T h ey would have been better off if they had paid a
little more money [by pre-leasing in the spnngj and
taken the place they w anted."
Thomas Thompson, president of Thomas G.
Thompson Realtors, also blamed the problem on stu
dent procrastination. He said many students, saying
they preferred to look around, opted not to pre-lease
before the summer.
"They didn't realize these bargains don't last forev
er," he said.
He credited spring pre-leasing with keeping prices
down through June and July, but said the influx of
students in August drove rates up.
factor," which causes
Thompson attributed the rise in rates partly to "the
bankruptcy
low-occupancy
complexes to decrease rents to attract tenants. "Back
in June, 75- to 100-unit complexes had 30 vacancies,"
he said. "N ow they have five."
But growing student demand is not affecting UT
housing costs, said Robert Cooke, Division of Hous
ing and Food Services director. "W e're not in the
competitive residential m arket," he said.
Cooke said UT housing rates have not increased in
three years. "Through a combination of cost-saving
measures and belt-tightening, we have been able to
avoid an increase," he said.
Those measures included eliminating the room-
only option for housing contracts, requiring all stu
dents moving into UT residence halls this semester to
buy meal plans with their contracts.
The division also stopped providing linens to resi
dents this semester and quit providing telephones last
year.
In response to the greater demand for student
housing, the division has relaxed regulations for stu
dents who want to break housing contracts, he said.
"W e have a situation where just about anyone who
wanted to get out now w ould," Cooke said.
Cooke said the division could permit as many as
100 students to break their contracts, providing there
are enough students to fill the vacancies. He said that
as of Monday, 115 students still were waiting for per
manent space. That number has decreased from 169
at the start of the semester.
Students who break contracts forfeit their deposits
but are not otherwise penalized. Previously, they
paid one m onth's rent and the cost of five days' meals
in addition to forfeiting their deposit.
"As our demand goes down, we can't be as flexi
b le," he said.
Cooke said more student housing is needed, but
the University has no plans to build additional dormi
tories.

Crowding
spurs conflict, plans
By «HM KENNETT
Daily Texan Staff
Two opposing philosophies are
going head-to-head as the Universi
ty, expanding under the weight of
increased enrollment, battles city
hall and neighborhood groups at
tempting to fend off what might af
fect the future quality of life in Aus
tin.
Charles Franklin, vice president
for business affairs, said the Univer
sity holds the attitude that as a pub
lic institution it must "take care of a
large part of the public and must
look after its needs as well."
But UT officials have had to face a
number of groups that disagree, he
•aid.
"There are some attitudes that the
University should not be buying in
those areas, that it's a moral issue,"
Itesaid.
Two specific areas of concern
have been the Blackland neighbor
hood near Interstate 35, and the
Brackenridge tract in West Austin.
Franklin said the University plans
to use the Blackland areas to house
the University's service offices, such
as financial aid and mail. The Divi
sion of Physical Plant already has
been moved east of 1-35.
The moves will make more space
available on campus for parking,
classrooms and recreational sports,
he said.
Franklin said developing
the
areas is a must because congestion
around the present campus is in
creasing constantly.
"We have about 65,000 people in
an area oí about 160 acres," he said.
"There again, you have to draw
some conclusions about how dense
you can make die campus."
Karen Paup, an Austin citizen
who is helping the Blackland resi
dents with an affordaWe-housing
program, said the growth plan is in
consistent because the University is
leasing the Brackenridge tract to the
city.
"If they need land, why are they
selling land in West Austin? And if
they need to sell land, why are they
buying land in East Austin?" she
asked.
But Franklin said the University
wants to use the Brackenridge tract
in the future as a source of funds.

Minority figures please administrators
By ANDRES EGUIGUREN
Daily Texan Staff
Enrollment figures issued Tues
day show minority enrollment is
up, and UT administrators said
they are proud of that fact. But
some student leaders said while
the numbers are encouraging, not
enough is being done to recruit
minorities.
Ronald Brown, vice president
for student affairs, presented pre
liminary enrollment figures to the
University Council last week that
he said showed the "fruit of some
very extensive work."
The final numbers seem to sup
port Brown: Black enrollment is up
8.27 percent from last fall. Like
wise, Hispanic enrollment is up
10.3 percent, and Asian enroll
ment is up 15.45 percent.
Marsha Moss, director of the
Office of Institutional Studies, said
she was "delighted" with these
figures.
"We do have some really strong
recruitment programs," Moss
said. "With that, we really try to
provide some good financial as
sistance."
But James Aldrete, graduate stu
dent in speech communication
and University Council member,
said the increased number of mi
nority students should be kept in
perspective.
Although the numbers are up,
Mack students still make up only
3.55 percent of the UT student
population, while Hispanics form
9.92 percent of the total.
Aldrete said considering the fact
that Hispanics constitute about 21
percent of the state population
and Hacks about 12 percent, there
is still a wide "representational"
gap to overcome.
Aldrete said the numbers are "a
little more encouraging as far as
when you look at freshman stu
dents."
Gary Speer, executive assistant
to the registrar, said "it's a real
shame" that a school the Universi
ty's size does not recruit more mi
norities.
"I just don't understand why
more [minority] kids won't come
here," Speer said.
Jon Jackson, Black Student Alli
ance president, agreed that more
intensive recruitment needs
to
continue.
"Consistent recruitment is not
something that UT is known for,"
Jackson said. "There still are not
enough Hack and Hispanic stu
dents. There is no optimum num
ber."

Enrollment cripples UT budget
By KIM HORNER
Daily Texan Staff
Because the 1988-89 UT budget
provides for an enrollment of only
48,000, this semester's 2,000 excess
students will severely drain the Uni
versity's supply of funds, a UT offi
cial said Tuesday.
"It puts a great deal of pressure
on our current budget," said Ger
hard Fonken, UT executive vice
president and provost.
The budget, set last January and
based on enrollment figures from
the 1986-87 school year and summer
1987, falls short of the University's
current needs.
"Everyone is affected," Fonken
said. "It's going to be a tight time

for a w hile."
Ken Caskey, UT associate vice
president for business affairs, said
the UT funding mechanism is "one
to two years behind the number of
students."
"It takes about two years to catch
u p ," Caskey said. "It puts you in a
crunch on a short-term basis. We've
got to do with what we've got."
Fonken said the University will
have problems providing its usual
services. Overcrowding has caused
larger classes, lack of new sections
and shortages in supplies and mate
rials, he said.
"The faculty are strained because
there will be more papers to grade,"
Fonken said. "The support staff are
all going to carry a heavier burden."
"It's even going to be harder to
walk across cam pus," he said.
"There will be longer lines in the
bookstores," he said.
Although enrollment next year
"probably won't go down
too
m uch," Fonken said, "w e hope that
it shrinks a little b it." He said enroll
ment will stay near 49,000 to 50,000,
because the number of graduating
students about equals the number
of entering ones.
New admissions criteria in 1989
will result in a smaller new class,
but "it takes several years to bring it
back down to 48,000," he said.
Alan Friedman, professor of Eng
lish and chairman of the Faculty
Senate, said students will "bear the
brunt" of the monetary crunch.

TAs, AIs bemoan freshman class size
By BECKY SCOTT
Daily Texan Staff
Burgeoning enrollment in fresh
man classes has provoked some
UT instructors and teaching assist
ants to say they cannot effectively
educate their students this semes
ter.
"There's no question I'm not as
effective as I could b e ," said Mike
Scioli, a biology teaching assistant
who teaches 20 to 35 students at a
time. "I can't tell if students un
derstand what I'm presenting, be
cause they're afraid to ask ques
tions in such a large class."
Scioli said class sizes make it
hard for him to give students indi
vidual attention.
"I don't know the names of my
students. I used to work at Texas
Tech where you were somebody,
not
just a number. Here, they
seem a lot more content to wash
you ou t," Scioli said.
Richard Day, another biology
TA, agreed with Scioli. Like Scioli,
Day teaches about two dozen stu
dents in each class.
"It's kind of hard to discuss with
so many people — my class ends
lecture," Day said.
up being a
Students need to
know somebody cares if
they are in class. They
need at least one teach
er who knows their
name.’
— Kathleen Hall,
assistant instructor
in English
"With a smaller discussion section
it would be easier for people to
talk. But as it is, a few people
dominate the class and some nev
er say a word."
An ideal discussion class would
have six to 10 students, Day said.
But, he added, " I realize the
University doesn't have the mon
ey to fund that."
Kay Halasek, an assistant in
structor in English, said her class
es — while not overcrowded —
are at their limit, and she wants no
students added to her roster.
But Kathleen Hall, an assistant
instructor in the same department
who teaches freshman English,
said her classes are so large that
she cannot teach effectively.
I
"W hen
first came here,
I
thought I would be able to have a
conference with each one of my
students about their papers." Hall
said. "But now I can barely point
out their errors to them.
"Classes are so large, I have to
rely on the students to understand
the comments I made on their pa
pers," Hall said.
She said the University's size
lets students who are not fully
committed to receiving a college
education fall by the wayside.
"Students need to know some
body cares if they are in class,"
Hall said. "They need at least one
teacher who knows their nam e."
Scioli said the Council of Gradu
ate Students should spotlight UT
overcrowding by presenting the
problem to the state Legislature.
"I'd hate to cut down on the
number of people enrolled at the
University," Scioli said. "The solu
tion seems to be more money for
more teachers, and we need to
take that problem to the public."

Commission sued over AIDS case delays
By MIKE ERICKSON
Daily Texan Staff
A law suit filed in state District
Court Tuesday may help A ID S
sufferers who look to the Texas
Commission on Hum an Rights for
relief from employment discrim ina
tion.
The lawyers filing the suit against
the agency say it does not pursue
complaints quickly, and that delay
can cause A ID S patients to lose their
day in court.
"Fo r persons w ith A ID S, the com
m ission's pattern and practice can
result in a fatal d elay," the suit
states.
"It's a life-or-death m atter," said
David Horton, an attorney for Texas
Rural Legal Aid Inc., w hich filed the
suit. " It cannot be ignored."
Elaine Romberg, another T R LA
attorney, said because individuals
who want to pursue legal action af
ter being turned down by the com
mission must do so w ithin one year
of the original incident, any delays
can cost them their right to legal ac
tion.
Under state law , an individual
has 180 days after a discrimination
incident to complain to the commis
sion. The commission then has 180
days either to file a lawsuit on be
half of that person or issue a letter
perm itting the person to pursue
other legal action.
But an individual may not pursue
independent legal action without
that letter.
Romberg and Horton said the
commission usually takes
longer
than 180 days, a process that jeop
ardizes a person's right to file a law
suit w ithin the one-year deadline.
As part of the law suit, Romberg
and Horton want County Court-at-
Law Judge M ichael Schless to issue
a tem porary restraining order forc
ing the commission to act faster.
The attorneys also said people are
sending letters of com plaint to the
commission, believing they have
met filing requirements, only to
receive a letter from the commission
stating that they must file on a spe
cific form.
James Todd, an attorney repre
senting the commission at the hear
ing for the restraining order, said
the commission does log complaints
received in the mail but has to have
them on a proper form because of
federal regulations.
Blackland group supports challenger to Delco
By SARAH KUCHELMEISTER
Daily Texan Staff
In response to what they believe
is a need for better representation,
members of the Blackland N eigh
borhood Association said Tuesday
that they plan to run their own can
didate for state representative.
The group announced Mable M y
ers, a retired schoolteacher who
lives in the East Austin neighbor
hood, as a write-in candidate for the
District 50 seat. The seat includes
the U niversity and is occupied by
W ilhelm ina Delco, D-Austin.
Charles Sm ith, a member of the
neighborhood group, said the deci
sion to run M yers came out of frus
tration w ith what members thought
was unfair representation for the
low-income area, which is populat
ed largely by blacks and the elderly.
Smith pointed out that Delco rep
resents not only Blackland but also
the University, which
is buying
property in that area against the
neighborhood association's wishes.
"W h e n you're representing two
parties, and one is donating and
one is not, who is going to be better
represented?" Sm ith asked.
M yers said she plans to run a
"coin-purse" campaign and has
vowed not to accept contributions
from special-interest groups.
Elliott Naishtat, who worked w ith
the Blackland group before he be
came a staff counsel for state Sen.
Gonzalo Barrientos, D-Austin, said
of the announcem ent,
"I'm not
surprised. They've been quite dis
appointed with Representative Del
co."
Delco was unavailable for com
ment Tuesday.
M yers, who received a master's
degree in education from the U n i
versity in 1957, wants to rescind the
U niversity's power of eminent
domain, to divest from investm ents
in South Africa, to raise public con
sciousness about affordable housing
and the homeless, and to promote
m inority business enterprises.
" I shall use my candidacy prim a
rily as a means of holding forums to
discuss vital, grass-roots issues,"
M yers said.
M yers said her prim ary interests
are related to the U niversity's buy
ing of Blackland property.”
"Because of past unfair practices,
I shall w ork untiringly for the repeal
of any grievous law that allows en
croachment upon neighborhoods,"
she said.
She stressed that she is not run
ning against the U niversity, how ev
er.
"1 have spent many pleasant
hours in the libraries and class
rooms of the U niversity of Texas, so
I believe strongly in higher educa
tion and the University im age," M y
ers said.
But she added, " I don't believe
one should focus so strongly on
higher education that he or she
should forget civil rights."

City accepts $13.4 million in FAA grants
By ALAN HINES
Daily Texan Staff
Postponing all other action, the
City Council voted unanim ously
Tuesday to accept $13.4 million in
two grants from the Federal Avia
tion Adm inistration for the new
M anor airport.
The first grant — totaling $10
million — is earmarked for land
acquisitions for the planned air
port, while the rem aining $3.4 mil
lion will be spent on airfield and
terminal im provem ents at Robert
Mueller M unicipal Airport.
The $10 million grant is the first
installm ents
of five $10 million
from the FAA to finance the new
airport. The next four installm ents
will be paid to the council over the
next four years.
Councilrnem bers Robert Barn-
stone, Sm oot Carl-M itchell, Max
Nofziger and Sally Shipm an ap
proved the grant acceptance.
Councilrnem bers George Hum
phrey, M ayor Lee Cooke, and
Charles Urdy were absent from
the work session.
The council approval cam e one
day after the FAA issued a report
that stated the airport would cause
“no significant im pact" on the sur
rounding environm ent.
M onday's report calls for som e
environm ental changes, but a list
of those changes will not be made
available until
som etim e next
week.
The report m eans further envi
ronm ental study in the form of an
environm ental
im pact statem ent
will not be necessary. An FAA rec
om m endation
for further study
would have delayed the first grant
installm ent until further study was
com pleted.
The council put off action on
two other item s until its regular
m eeting Thursday.
C o u n cilrn em b ers
p o stp o n e d
paym ent to three com panies w ho
worked on A ustin's proposed civic
center earlier this year. In June,
the council had ordered the com
panies of G ilbane Building, Page
Southerland Page, and C oopers &
Lybrand to cease w ork on the
project because of budgetary con
siderations.
The three com panies have re
quested city reimb irsem ent for ex
penses, said actir * City M anager

ing but the m em bers' good will that
they w on't go back and change that
am o u n t," said Dave M ason, w ho
represents Pickle.
Sem atech, w hich is m ade up of
m ore than a dozen private com pa
nies, has a w orking partnership
with the D efense D epartm ent to do
sem iconductor research. The con
sortium announced its decision to
locate in Austin last year.
O nce the bill com es out of confer
ence, it must receive approval from
both houses before going to Presi
d ent Reagan. C om m ittee mem bers
w ere expected to hash out their dif
ferences by late Tuesday.
"T h ere are indications that the
president will be willing to sign it
this tim e," M ason said. President
Reagan vetoed the defense bill earli
er this year.
Late M onday, U .S. Senator Lloyd
Bentsen, D-Texas, said the com m it
tee had agreed to the $100 million
am ount.
"1 am assured that the House and
Senate conferees on the defense ap
propriations bill will provide the full
$100 million for Sem atech, rather
than the $45 requested by the ad
m inistration," Bentsen said
in a
statem ent.
"I fought for the full $100 million
not only to keep the Austin facility
on schedule, but also to speed the
day when America can regain its
high-technology com petitiveness in
sem icon d u ctors," he said.
M ason said both B en tsen 's and
Pickle's offices have pushed for the
higher am ount.
M ason said he is not sure why
Reagan proposed $45 million
for
Sem atech. "1 don't know if there
w as ever an adequate ex p lan atio n ,"
he said.
But, M ason said, Reagan may
have been advised by D efense De
partm ent and O ffice o f M anage
m ent and Budget officials
that
Sem atech did not need the full $100
million because the consortium had
not used its current budget.
"T h ere was concern
that there
th e

w a sn 't
p ro ject," M ason added.
co m m itm e n t
a
The funding procedures are par
ticularly urgent now because the bill
m ust be signed by Reagan before
the new fiscal year begins O ct. 1,
M ason said. If the bill d oes not m eet
that deadline, Sem atech will oper
ate on its current funding level until
the process is com pleted, he said.
"M r. Pickle's feeling is that it's
it's o v e r," M ason
never over till
said.

Texas-Oklahoma rivalry remains favorite for CBS national telecast
By JERRY GERNANDER
Daily Texan Staff
OU tickets left, page 12
It w ould h av e been easier to stop S her
m an 's m arch th ro u g h G eorgia than it is to put
a halt to national telecasts of th e an n u al Tex
as-O klahom a football gam e.
The annual g ru d g e m atch h as not been
close the past tw o years (47-12 an d 44-9), and
both team s w ere blow n out in their m ost re
cent ap p e ara n ces on national
television.
N onetheless, CBS will broadcast the gam e at
1:30 p .m . CDT O ct. 8.
After also c o n sid e n n g broadcasting th e Au-
burn-LSU an d N otre D am e-Pitt gam es, the
n etw o rk officially decided to go w ith th e Tex-
as-OU gam e M onday, w hen it a n n o u n c e d its
in ten tio n s to b oth schools' athletic directors
"T he fo rtu n e s of both team s, obviously, we
w atch very carefully ," said Len DeLuca, d i
rector of p ro g ram m in g for CBS Sports. "T he
o p p o rtu n ity to get Texas on is im p o rtan t to
us.
"C learly, w e got a little bit n e rv o u s after the
Brigham Y oung gam e [a 47-6 Texas loss].
Clearly, we w ould have p referred O klahom a
to com e in u n d efe a te d . But Texas-O klahom a
is so m ew h at like A rm y-N avy or A uburn-A la-
bam a. The p eren n ial rivalry an d au ra of the
tw o schools' nam es also plays a significant
p a rt."
Both team s are 2-1, w ith th e L onghorns
having w on tw'o straigh t gam es since losing
to BYU in a gam e televised b\ ESPN. The
Sooners w on their first tw o before losing 23-7
S aturday in a gam e televised by ABC
"H a d CBS not picked it up. I'm sure ESPN
w ould h av e," Texas A thletic Director DeLoss
D odds said of the OU gam e.
The gam e will m ark the 15()th tim e the
L onghorns have played to a tele\ ision a u d i
ence an d the 36th telecast of the Texas-OU
gam e since 1948. The gam e has not been tele
vised at all just five tim es in that period —
1954, 1960, 1961, 1974 a n d 1975. In '74 an d
'75, th e Sooners w ere on probation.
"I think it's really im p o rta n t," D odds said
of the gam e being on national television. "It
helps the im ages of both in stitu tio n s to be on
national TV. It's im p ortant to the conference
to have a conference team be on a national
CBS gam e for the conference ex p o su re."
D espite th e lack of success Texas has had
against O klahom a in recent years, D o dds said
it is still good to have the gam e televised, re
gardless of the result.
"I see being on TV as an a d v a n ta g e ," he
said. "W e've beaten O klahom a m ore th a n
th e y 'v e beaten u s." Texas o w ns a 47-31 a d
vantage in the series, w ith four ties, alth o u g h
the L onghorns have not beaten the Sooners
since 1983.
From CBS vantage poin t, the g am e's result
in recent years has not dim in ish ed the im por
tance of the gam e.
"T h a t's w here the fact it is a natural rivalry
kind of balances it," said DeLuca. "I'd kind of
be h ap py if it w a sn 't 44-9, w h e th er it w as Tex
as or O klahom a w ho w o n ."

It w ould also place him in the

Lady Longhorns look to dethrone top-ranked Bruins
By RAY DISE
Daily Texan Staff
When the UT volleyball team ar
rives in San Antonio for its match
with No. 1 UCLA, one of the Lady
Longhorns will be right at home.
For freshman outside attacker
Annette Garza,
the 7:30 p.m.
match, billed as the Reebok Show
case I, in the Recreation and Convo
cation Center on the campus of UT-
San Antonio will be the first time
she has played at home since join
ing the team in August.
The Reebok Showcase II will take
place Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the
Erwin Center.
“I'm excited," said Garza, a South
San Antonio High School graduate.
“It will be exciting to see all of my
family and relatives and friends. We
are going down to practice, and I'm
nervous just to be practicing, but we
will get a chance to find out about
the court down there and that
should make everyone feel OK."
This will also be the first time
Garza's whole family will see her
play for Texas. With three other
children to worry about, Garza's
parents haven't had much opportu
nity to see many matches. On
Wednesday, they will.
“My family
is really excited,"
Garza said. "It's a big change from
high school to college but they un
derstand the change and they are
still excited."
Garza was all-district and all-city
her last three years at South San.
She was also named to the Volleyball
Monthly Fabulous 50 list along with
fellow Longhorns Nikki Busch and
Janine Gremmel.
Because of sophomore Quan-
dalyn Harrell's inconsistency and
because Gremmel is suffering from
a back
injury, Garza may start
against the Bruins.
"It's going to be tough," Garza
said. 'T hey aren't number one for
nothing. It will be really tough and
there will be a lot of pressure. Mick
[Haley] puts us in to do something
right and playing UCLA just makes
the situation more tense."
Texas, 10-1 and ranked No. 5 in
this week's American Volleyball
Coaches Association poll, must play
its best match of the year if the Lady
Longhorns hope
top-
ranked UCLA.
to upset
The Bruins enter Wednesday's
matchup with 9-0 record.
"We hope to come in and play as
hard as we have been and do as
well as w e have early in the sea
son," UCLA Coach Andy Bana-
chowski said. "We've played a lot
better than we thought we would
early in the season. We figured to
work early and be better later in the
season."
is
Banachowski said his team
blocking well and added other
teams have commented that they
are digging much better this year.
The Bruins, who lead the series
with Texas 10-1, are led by junior
middle blocker Daiva Tomkus and
freshman outside attacker Elaine
Youngs.
Tomkus leads the team in hitting
with a .380 percentage and is sec
ond in kills with 108. Tomkus is
most known for her top-spin serve,
which gave the Longhorns some
problems in the two matches the
teams had last season.
Youngs is the team leader in kills
is right behind
with 112 and
Tomkus in hitting at .348.
Texas must have good play out of
seniors Dawn Davenport, who was
named Southwest Conference Play
er of the Week last week, and Stacie
Nichols and sophomore Dagmara
Syzszczak if it is to expect success.
"We have to serve well, neutral
ize Tomkus' serve and have good
ball control," Haley said. "We have
to hit the ball well both nights, it's
the only thing that UCLA respects.
The theme for our team is to play
offensively, be the aggressor, and
not play defensively. If we do that, I
feel that we will have a nice team,
but it's something we have to do
and do it every week."

It's obvious which of these musicians will
make it and which ones w on't. The confi
dence of the musicians who seem destined
for stardom can be amusing, but when
manifested in those w ho will almost cer
tainly fail (and most of these must — the
music industry can only support so many
bands), the self-assuredness is almost trag
ic.
In contrast to her grittier explorations of
punk, including The Decline of Western Civi
lization and Suburbia (a fictional drama that
starred real punks and runaways), Spheeris
directs The M etal 'Years in a style as slick,
calculated, glitzy and self-indulgent as her
latest subjects.
Freely admitting a preference for the doc
umentary format, she clearly seems at
home in this production. Her interviews
have prodded a remarkable story from
these young people, and she treats them
sympathetically because of it.
When Spheeris pokes fun at her subjects,
she does so withoút malice. As ridiculous
as the teenyboppers screaming for the lat
est band may look, they aren't nearly as
laughable as the anti-metal authority figure
in her high-rise office explaining that the
two raised fingers kids often wave in the air
at metal concerts (a gesture that looks ap
proximately like the Hook 'em Horns sign)
actually symbolizes the devil.
I'm not much of a heavy metal aficiona

for high-gloss showbiz, and I love to root
for the underdog. And these guys (and, oc
casionally, gals) certainly qualify as the ulti
mate flash-and-trash underdogs.
Basically, it's easy to make fun of heavy
metal for being nine parts style and one

"Rock 'n' roll is more than m usic."
The grinning, long-haired young owner
of a heavy metal-oriented Los Angeles club
says a great deal when he makes this casual
observation. Sex, pow er, fame, flash, style,
fashion, escapism and money all play their
parts in rock 'n' roll. But the music also
serves as an incredible bond and a means
by which many young people have broken
away from underprivileged backgrounds.
It's also one of the last professions where
you can still do things your own way.

It’s easy to make fun of heavy
metal for being nine parts
style and one part substance,
but can a nation that elected
Ronald Reagan president real
ly complain about overem
phasis on image?
So when filmmaker Penelope Spheeris
set out to document the world of hard rock
in The Decline o f Western Civilization Part II:
The Metal Years, she faced an interesting di
lemma.
She could examine the hard rock counter
culture as a serious smial phenomenon.
She could glorify the overblown demigod
images these rock stars already have. She
could just out-and-out make fun of these
drugged-out freaks in spandex and leather.
Or she could do all three.
By choosing this last option, Spheeris has
come up with an amazing and insightful
documentary. Humor, information, glam
our and pathos all wind their wavs through
the concert footage and
interviews with
club owners, metal fans and scores of musi

cians that make up I'he Metal Years.
Spheeris concentrates on the high-octane
heavy metal scene in Los Angeles, and she
speaks to several generations of metal-
heads to give us a clear perspective on the
business and the fans.

F-rom the youngest kid trying to start his

Second City laughs at tradition
Famous improvisational troupe hopes to maintain quality of legacy
By JOE SIMS
Daily Texan Staff
It won't be reputation or tradition
getting laughs for The Second City
Comedy Group Wednesday night
Even though it can boast of gradu
ates such as Bill Murray, John C an
dy, Alan Arkin and Rick Moranis,
the troupe won't be counting on
history for a good show.
"W e 'v e got to try to live up to the
n a m e," Second City performer Tim
othy Meadows said in a recent inter
view. "T h e audiences expect a lot
because the group has had so much
success in the past. So we can't just
lay back, we've really got to work.
Of course, in a way, it's a little easi
er because people know our reputa
tion."
The name might get a few people
to the show, but it's not going to
make them laugh. No, the perform
ers are on their own in that respect,
and only individual talent will make
the show enjoyable. " I think we've
C om edy
got a prettv good group, Meadows
said. "W e 'v e gotten some very posi
tive responses on this tour and 1
know we re all enjoying it. That al
ways helps the sh o w ."
The show will, like Saturday Night
Live, SC LV and the local outpost of
topical satire, Esther's Follies, co n
sist of a number of sketches. While
many are classics that have been
used in previous years, some of the
skits have been written by the cur

The majority of the scenes are ei

looks at everyday
happenings, common problems or
politics. "A lot of people laugh at
strange things that they've done be
fore. We try to exercise daily life be
cause it s such a basic thing," Mead
ows said.
The show will also include a good
deal of improvisation, Second City's
forte, and the most difficult and
consuming of comic approaches.
"Y o u can't use old material. It has
got to be fresh or you'll lose the
spontaneity of it all. You can't try to
force anvthing because that's too
obvious. You have to be totally in
volved in what's going on.
"It's like meeting someone for the
first tim e," he continued. " If they're
going on about the coffee shop, you
can't say, T h i s isn't the coffee shop,
it's my living room.' You are creat
ing another world and, for the audi
ence to buy it, you've got to be
doing everything in sy n c."
Meadows also noted that, with
improvisation can't
out creativity,
work. "Y o u 'v e got to play off the
top of your head and always be
thinking, or else nothing will hap
pen. You try to be quick and off
beat without going too far out. Ac
tually,
it's basically like speaking
through a character. They're your
ideas and the more honest you are,
the better it'll w o rk."
Improvisation may the most chal
lenging aspect of comedy but, ac
cording to Meadows, writing is far
more important. He noted people
like Arkin and Harold Ramis — who
wrote, did improv and acted — as
examples of who gets ahead.
"It takes an ability to w rite," he
said. "T h e people who weren't writ
ers weren't creating material every
night and were handicapped later.
A writer is the best thing to b e ."
Meadows also noted the advan
tages of being able to perform in a
city like Austin where, because of
the Follies, comedy isn't too for
eign. "W h en e v er the audience has
been exposed to our type of come
dy, they know where it's all coming
from and they know what to look
for. It helps the audience as much
as it helps us."

Tattinger's is an offbeat comedy-
drama about a handsome-but-tough
restaurateur and his socialite ex-
wife. It comes from the makers of
St. Elsewhere, and the characters are
engaging, though the show needs
to find its voice.
This year, ABC starts the season
with one sure winner, Roseanne, a
sitcom with something to say, from
the producers of NBC's biggest hit
ever, The Cosby Show. Knightwatch is
murky film noir set around a Guard
ian Angels-type law enforcement
group. And the network's Murphy's
Law casts George Segal as a seedy
insurance investigator in a plodding
crime drama.
CBS, third in the Nielsens last
season, seems to be trying. Murphy
Brown, a sophisticated comedy star
ring Candice Bergen as a TV report
er who just got off the bottle, shows
promise and has a decent time slot
on Monday night.
But CBS also fell into nostalgia by
teaming Dick Van Dyke and Mary
Tyler Moore — in separate shows
on Wednesday night. Things don't
look great so far for either project:
the producers were so unhappy
with the pilots that both are being
redone. The original pilot
for
Moore's show was mediocre. Critics
haven't
seen anything of Van
Dyke's show yet. CBS was also in
spired by a popular movie and
made Dirty Dancing into a series. Its
pilot,
is being redone and
