San Francisco Foghorn/.1! Friday, February 7, 1986 EDITORIALS Editorial

ix weeks is a long time. Time to catch your breath, to relax, to let biochemistry, or ethics of the Western world or Scollective bargaining drop from your mind. It's a refresh­ ing pause, one that allows you to charge batteries. Now, we're back. Time to pick up the books and go to work. But, it's a new semester. The drossage of the fall, with its term papers and finals and-grades is behind us all. Many of us would hate to admit it, but deep down,-just a little bit, we're happy to be back. The Foghorn is certainly glad to be back, and we're sure there is a lot that is going to happen. We ha\je-a chance to improve that which was less than magnificent last time, and continue excelling in our strong areas. And the weight of the last few weeks of the semester is far off. Our friends are back to help us, and for a few weeks we feel somewhat at peace with the world. Welcome back. Int Foghorn hopes that the semester is the best for everyone.

Friday, February 7, 1986 San Francisco Foghorn/9 SPORTS ROBERT CONRATT Grudge Matches on Agenda Echoes From the Hilltop Dons in Dire Straits he college basketball season is in high gear and the big news isn't being generated by the powerful teams ofthe ACC and Big TEast conferences. This past week, the media focused its atten­ tion on the Midwest. On Friday. Januarv 24th. three members ofthe University of Minnesota basketball team were arrested on sexual assault charges. Sophomore forwards Mitch Lee and George Williams and junior forward Kevin Smith were charged with second-degree sexual assault. Lee and Smith were also charged with first-degree sexual assault. All three have pleaded not guilty to all charges. Thursday night, the Gophers had downed the University of Wisconsin 67-65 in Madison. Wisconsin. The next morning, a man identifying himself as Lee telephoned the hotel where the Gophers had stayed, claiming to have left his billfold in his room. When a hotel employee searched the room for the billfold, she found an 18-year-old woman wrapped in sheets and. as a police officer put it. "pretty well out of it." The woman, a student at nearby Madison Area Technical College, claimed to have been raped by two men for 2 1/2 hours the previous night while a third man was in tne room. Rounding out the weekend, head coach Jim Dutcher resigned on Saturday and the Gophers forfeited their game against Northwestern on Sunday. Despite some outside pressure to forfeit the remainder of their schedule, the university decided to play the season out, promoting assistant coach Jimmy Williams to Dutcher's former position. Not surprisingly. Williams vowed to impose a '-stricter code of conduct" on the remaining team members (besides Lee, Smith and Williams, one player is academically ineligible and another is red-shirting). On the following Wednesday, Williams suspended guard Todd Alexan­ der and forward Terence Woods for violation of undisclosed team rules.
