Graduate dislikes Reagan's role in Guatemala

HENRY E. HARDY Staff Writer

The Reagan Administration has been supporting corrupt and brutal dictatorships in Central America, according to Grand Valley Alumnus Mamie Graiiano. Graiiano taught fifth grade at the American School of Guatema^ in 1980 and 1981. Guatemala is in the midst of a violent civil war Graiiano says. She remembers one government attack on a house allegedly owned by members of the resistance forces. ~We were having our usual school day.’ she said, and at about 11:30 a.m. somebody ran into the room and yelled to evacuate. We assumed that it was just an earthquake practice. We ran out either door, and were getting ready to get our children down on the ground. All of a sudden, we started hearing shoot­ ing and bombs going off." Over 1000 elementary, high school, and university students took refuge in the middle of the school compound, Graiiano Big concert said. "We eventually got centrally located in an outdoor area in the middle of the school." she said. Everybody is down on the coming soon ground. Kids are crying. It was that type of a panic situation. It was 45 minutes before we knew what was happening. Eddie Money and support band S A G A will rip apart the Field see Guatemala page 2 House's stillness on December 3.

How would you describe coach Giesey'1 debut as aLakerHead Coach? Lackluster? Disappointing? Frustrating? Any of these terms could be used to describe the 1983 season. A season in which the Lakers stumblad early, got rad-hot, and then just had plain bad luck as they slipped to a 4-6 record and fourth place In the GLIAC. It was a season that lived up to no one's expectations, especially Rookie Lsker Head Coach Bob Giesey. "I do not feel happy with thi* season,” he said. "I think the players responded tremendously and there was a good attitude on the whole team. I do think, though, vve would have won more if we had more confidence.” It's hard to define what went wrong with the Lakers this year. It seemed that the Lakers took some of their opponents too lightly and played accordingly. Central and Wayn* State are excellent examples of this.
