Cuba approves terror treaties: Paying homage to those killed 25 years ago in the bombing of a Cuban jetliner, lawmakers in Havana on Thursday unanimously signed a series of international anti-terrorism treaties. After the Sept. 11 attacks in the United States, President Fidel Castro said there was “the need to strengthen the authority of the United Nations during the current crisis.” Thatcher criticizes Muslim leaders: Former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher crit­ icized Muslim leaders in Britain, saying in an interview published Wednesday that they had not spoken out strongly enough to condemn the terror attacks in the United States. “The people who brought down those towers were Muslims and Muslims must stand up and say that is not the way of Islam,” Thatcher reportedly said.

A good book takes place in the theater of the mind; adding the audio only sharpens that image.” Of course, the recording of such monumen­ tal moments required a narrator who was passionate and appropriate for such a project. In Garner’s mind, there was little debate as to who should be chosen. “Because I dedicated the book to the fans, I wanted a fan to do the honors of narrating it,” said Garner. “In my estimation, the most famous and most spirited fan is Regis Philbin.” He added that Philbin’s enthusiasm for Notre Dame and its football program is evident in Philbin’s spirited readings. Although selecting Philbin to narrate was relatively easy, deciding exactly which games to include in “Echoes” proved more of a chal­ Dam e lenge for Garner. Although Notre Dame foot­ ball dates back to 1887, nearly a quarter of the games were played before radio broad­ casts. Since Garner wanted to focus on the broadcast era, games from before the 1920s were not included in his book. Also, not all game broadcasts have survived, which left Garner in the difficult position of deciding Great and Memorable how, if at all, to include certain unforgettable games that seemed to require inclusion.

M e n ’s C ro ss C o u n tr y Final piece of the puzzle

♦ Shay returns to Irish after taking season off

By KATIE HUGHES Sports Writer

Sometime things don’t fit together exactly as planned. And sometimes, that’s the best thing that could have hap­ pened. After finishing 10th in the Olympic Trials during the sum­ m er of 2000, senior All- American Ryan Shay decided to sit out last year’s cross country season just one month before the season started. “It was scary [last year],” said head coach Joe Piane. “We were really rolling the dice. Could we get to NCAAs without Ryan Shay?” The Irish finished fourth at last y ear’s Big East cham pi­ onships, behind Providence, Georgetown, and Villanova, and finished ninth in the NCAA championships, without Shay. “I have no doubt that if [Notre Dame] had the NCAA 10,000 champion on their team they would have finished significant­ ly higher,” said Mark Wetmore, head coach at Colorado, which finished second at last year’s NCAA meet, and is ranked first this season. Stanford, Arkansas, and Wisconsin are also ranked ahead of Notre Dame in early season polls. If Shay had competed last season and finished fifth in last Photo illustration by BETH AMER, RICO CASARES, ERNESTO LACYAO and ANGELA CAMPOSfThe Observer Senior Ryan Shay’s return to the Notre Dame cross country team is just one more addition to a potent team that finished ninth see PUZZLE/page 25 in the nation last year.
