The council consists of a faculty chairperson, the president of United Student Government, an academic dean, three students chosen at random, and two faculty members. The council, which met March 6, was made up of Himmelberg, Shaun Mahoney, CBA'86, USG president, Rev. Raymond Adams, S.J., academic dean, Jennifer O'Leary, FC'86, Kevin Cunningham, FC'89, Peter O'Rourke, FC'87, Dominic Balestra, philosophy professor, and Rev. Francis Canavan, S.J., political science professor. "I thought the council conducted an ex- cellent hearing," McGowan said. "They were very thorough, very attentive to all the parti- cipants and what they had to say." The accused students had three character witnesses appear at their hearing: Elizabeth Kraus, philosophy professor; James Marsh, philosophy professor, and Rev, Ned Murphy, SJ. Peter Cicchino, S.J., acted as their de- fense council. According to McGowan, the students can appeal the decision of the board in writing to the University president, within 72 hours after receiving official notice of the decision of the council. The students can appeal on one of three points: improper sanction, new evidence, or a fundamental application of their due process rights. Although the council announced its decision March 7, three membeis of the nine said they had not received their official notice as of March 10. 4/THE RAM/Thursday, March 13, 1986 American Age and Pax Christi DONT proudly present: MISS Nobel Peace Prize Young Winner Frankenstein Adolf o Perez PartofWACs Esquivel speaking on: Film Festival "Nonviolence and Liberation in Latin America" Friday at 9:00 Tuesday, March 18th at 12:30 in McGinley Center Ballroom Keating 1st

That means the produc- tion company and the director have something to brag about. A film like The Color Purple or Out of Africa is guaranteed to be a success, so motion picture executives spend a lot of money on publicity, to spread the word that something great is coming to the big screen. On the other hand, movies like Friday the 13th, Part VI, Hollywood Vice Squad, or Angel's Revenge are never screened in advance. The reason is simple: the people behind these Macchio is irritating with his "Yo, I'm the best" attitude.

by Lisa Ludvik | Representing small towns all over ! America today, Hadleyville, Pennsylvania is | living through a deep economic depression, ': The town's auto plant has just shut down, and residents of Hadleyville have nowhere to work. In comes the Japanese auto firm of Assan Motors to take over the factory and re- generate the town's economy. Easy enough? No. The invariable struggle between the Japanese bosses from the East and the small town workers from the West results in a clash of style, tradition, and culture that is the theme of Gung Ho, the new movie directed by Ron Howard and starring Michael Keaton. Gung Ho, Japanese slang for "work to- gether," is a topical comedy about East/West differences. Michael Keaton plays Hunt (The Man Who Saved Hadleyville) Stevenson, the once foreman of the now-closed plant who has to go to Japan to convince Assan to come to America. The opening scenes of the film, showing Hunt's experiences in Japan, are hilarious. Hunt obviously talks Assan into coming to America and the movie is under Michael Keaton (center) with co-workers in Ron Howard's Gung Ho. way. The bulk of the movie centers around Stevenson, who is given the position of Employee Liaison after Assan arrives. Hunt's job is to be the mediary between East and Try It, West. As conflicts begin, Hunt is torn between his bosses and his friends. Quickly the movie builds to a head on collision with Hunt as the major casualty. Keaton is perfect in his role as Hunt, the You'll Like It! man who tries to please everyone. Although by Mary Jo Lilly opening song to the accapella finale, the Hunt is essentially a good guy, he sometimes "When you're extraordinary you have young actor expresses on stage the energy appears as a jerk, and Keaton demonstrates to do extraordinary things." and perseverance of the young heir to the versatility and courage in playing a role that Sounds simple enough, right?

For now, that is the sad reality for the Fordham squash team, as its 1985-1986 campaign has come to a conclusion with a solid 13-10 record and a national ranking of fifteenth. Coach Bob Hawthorn was pleased with the performance of this year's squad, which improved on last season's mark of 8-11 ami national rank of eighteenth. "I am very happ> with them because as always, we played against teams that are much more experienced than us," stated Hawthorn. "By and large, I am pleased." According to Hawthorn, who has now been at the helm for thirty years, there were five victories which stood out in his mind. "Columbia, M.I.T., Wesleyan, Bowdoin and Brown were all fine wins on our part this year," said Hawthorn. As always, besides the season's inevitable end, the squash careers for all the senior come to a conclusion. Hawthorn will lose tiu1 players to graduation this season [Tim Gole\, Mark Fabry, Mark Ross, Tim Brown, and Dave Varoli].

Say what you will about Tom Pendcrs and the eccentric tendencies of his Fordham, Rams this year, but keep in mind one thing: he never promised anybody a rose garden. Before the Rams' 13-17 season g0[ underway, Penders knew that he had to till a 54-point per game void which was created by the graduation of seniors Tony Mclniosh, Sieve Samuels and Jerry Hobbie. "Before this season began 1 said that we could go 20-10, 15-15, or 10-20." Pendcrs said. Penders should have an easier time of it next year, as he is only losing two seniors, Goran Skoko and Don McCormiek, who accounted for but eight points per game f combined. Is Penders optimistic about next year? "Some nights we "If we were losing Joe Paterno and Tom Parrotta," Penders said, "then 1 probably were really good, and wouldn't feel so good. But we are only losing two role players and I feel very good about the other nights we future." There is more than one reason why couldn't beat a Penders feels good about next year.
