PAGE6/RAMSP0RTS BASKETBALL PREVIEW New Face: Coakley EnjoysYaBaiiheVRecruiting Yea Meet the "new" Lady Rams. This year's new recruits are considered by many to be the best freshman class Fordham women's basketball has ever had. Their mere presence has elevated the Lady Rams from a 7-19 squad last year to a preseason favorite to contend for the Metro Atlantic Conference Title. "I'm very pleased with each one of them, as both players and people," says Coach Cathleen Coakley. "They've meshed into our system very quickly. They also complement our returning players extremely well. I'm expecting them all to play a great deal." Coakley and her two assistant coaches, Joe Buckley and Debra Eckstein, logged many overtime hours last year in order to bring the best high school players in the East to Fordham.

The house went dark, the stage went dark, switched to deep purple lighting and a lone spotlight on Keith Richards. And you couldn't help but be in awe of this guitar genius as he took control and let loose on the song, one of the greatest rock numbers ever written. And that song— until Mick got in the cherry picker—became everything Madison Square Garden represents. It was the archetype of what rock and roll is, was, and was meant to be. But two minutes of magic can't make up for 118 minutes of nothing. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but if a band is going to go around calling itself the "World's Greatest," I feel I have every right to expect more than a musically good show. The Stones worked hard—very hard, in fact— but they just don't mean it any more. A true rock and roll show would leave you mentally and physically drained—but totally exhiliratcd. And I felt nothing. Well, that's not totally true. During the encore, a perfunctory "Satisfaction," hun- dreds of balloons fell from the roof of the Garden onto the audience and the stage, where Mick and Ron ran around breaking them. And as I stood there, watching the crowd leave, I felt like one of those balloons. 10/THE RAM/NOVEMBER 19,1981 The General Hospital Syndrome Hits Fordham Continued from page 1 Girl."
