WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME TO CALL YOUR BOYFRIEND? a) When the president of Phi Gamma Delta asks you to Saturday night's Fiji Formal.

b) After raquetball class, to tell him that the instructor with the Australian accent and those blue eyes did wonders for your serve.

c) When you just feel like telling him you miss him after all.

Maybe you shouldn't tell him everything that's going on. But if you still care about him, why not call and whisper some sweet things he'll never forget? Like why you call using AT&T Long Distance Ser vice, and why you trust AT&T's high quality service and exceptional value. When you tell him that AT&T gives you immedi- ate credit if you dial a wrong number, he won't be able to get you out of his mind. And telling him you can count on AT&T for clear, long distanc connections will drive him crazy, All of which will prob- ably inspire him to drive out for the weekend, giving you an excuse to blow off that silly frat party after all.

uring their playing days at Fordham University, Tony Mclntosh and Jerry DHobbie handed out more than 700 as- sists to their teammates. This season, just one season removed from their college playing car- eers, the familiar backcourt combo is handing out an assist of a different kind—as assistant coaches. It was no coincidence that during their : \. * four years here, between 1981-85, the Rams, On the Sidelines 0^^ J?!J* with Mclntosh and Hobbie taking care of business in the backcourt, had four of their - t M most successful seasons ever. Fordham com- piled a 75-49 record over that span, earning four consecutive National Invitation Tourna- ment bids. Although Mclntosh and Hobbie graduated in the spring of 1985, never having reached the more prestigious NCAA tournament, the two departed Fordham with a great fondness for the University and for bas- ketball. So it was hardly surprising that when new head coach Bob Quinn suggested that they return to Rose Hill as his assistants, they answered the call. Mclntosh, who hasn't lost his soft-spoken manner and friendly smile, said the opportu- nity to coach at Fordham is a chance to say After a brief stint with the Westchester Golden Apples of the USBL and a tour of English ball, "thanks" to the University for what it did for Jerry Hobbie has returned to the fold of the Fordham Rams. him.
