GorJtJA dessert." Modern child-raising manuals probably frown on the age-old use of threats, preferring parents to deal as diplomats, not Ger dictators, but that requires more patients than many of us regularly possess. We threaten, hoping that word alone will make our offspring behave. And if they don't? Our children are grown now, but we remember all too well the agony of the follow-through. Twenty minutes later, the spinach is still on the plate, and the prospect of a screaming fight over dessert is more than your frayed nerves can take. You're reduced to pathetically trying to save face, "Eat two bites of spinach, then you can have dessert. "The kid spreads the spinach around the plate, pretends to swallow a bit and you both subscribe to the fiction that your authority has been upheld. But the child, and any siblings, know that, in fact, you've been had. A few nights later it's broccoli that's at issue. Then another child makes a successful attempt at vegetable-avoidance, and before long it's a full-scale rebellion at the dinner table.

" With four minutes and fifty-one seconds left in the third quarter of Saturday's against Western State, senior running back Shawn Jones broke the game wide open with an 81-yard touchdown run. Jones' run ignited the team which led to the Thunderbirds' first win of the '94 season. It may very well turn out that that's what SUV fans can expect this year. Jones, who wears number 24 on game days, is a physical education major and is a man of many talents. When he's not in his foo tball cleats, he's in his running spikes as a member of the SUV track team-he runs the 100- and 200-metcr dash and is hoping to make the NCAA championships this year.

Jones describes his fa mily as a very athletic one. His mother was a track star in college and one of his brothers has gone from foo tball to amateur boxing.
