In the last few years, fraternities have come under fire from the administration for all sorts of things. From alcohol problems to structural defects in the houses to initiation problems. It always seems like there is a litany of bad news concerning our Greek system. While there have been some problems, it is very unfair to categorize the Greek system as all bad. The Fireman's Ball this past Saturday is just another example of good that the farternity/sorority system can do. It is very exciting to to write about alcohol problems than the Psi-U blood drive or the Kappa Balloon Derby.

Intercut with this is some of their new material, being recorded in the studio. This music, combined 1983 to 1987, is a series of small- animated new entity. The elegance of with the techniques and style, definitely made me want to jump up and dance (or at least tap my foot.) And the scale works fashioned of wood and form and the economy of artifice washed out black-and-white used during most of the film gave the band a very understated, naturai look. It was mounted on pedestals. The works are makes his work stand in the great saying, "Look, these guys don't need much - they just want to play their music." largely abstract, combining curved, tradition of twentieth-century sculp- There are some exceptionally powerful moments.

It is this fascination John Weber Gallery has exhibited with the actual process of sculpture who can mix music and politics; therefore a lot of their ideals come out in the songs. So, from a fan's point of four shows of Kendrick's sculpture view, I was very entertained; it was like seeing the band in concert again, and I loved that! But if you're looking which is most striking in Kendrick's since 1980. In addition, Kendrick has small wood sculptures. from a critical point of view, this isn't a film of substance - and you probably couldn't sit through it if you don't recently held so!o exhibitions at the like U2. In this case, go into the theatre expecting a slick, well-done, two-hour video.

Russ: Once again, I find myself in agreement with Liz, but my usual skepticism left me a little more annoyed than she was. Now, I'm nol a U2 groupie, but I do like their music a lot and I have a great deal of respect for their depth and vision. But a pilgrimage to Graceland? Come on. Tell me it isn't a let-down to know that the drummer for such a politically outspoken band idolizes Elvis. There is a scene where the drummer, Larry Mullen, is sitting describing his feelings for Elvis, saying that in Elvis' movies he didn't just play a gas station attendant, he played a gas station attendant who liked to play guitar. Doesn't this bear a striking resemblance to the drummer in Spinal Tap? This is the man who sits behind the drums while Bono is preaching about Northern Ireland, apartheid, civil rights and whatever else stirs his conscience. Please don't get me wrong; I think Bono is great. The problem is that we hear more from Mullen about Elvis than we hear from Bono (off stage) in the entire film. The argument can be made that Bono probably wanted his message to come out through his music, and it does. As Liz pointed out, however, when what you're watching essentially amounts to a nearly two- hour U2 video, albeit a good one, the very potent message can become garbled. I do have to end this on a good note, however. The bottom line is that I did enjoy this film. This doesn't necessarily mean that Rattle and Hum is a good rockumentary. All it means is that I like U2 enough to sit through it and enjoy the concert and recording footage. Judge for yourself: if you think you can sit through a two-hour video from an extremely powerful, and "heavy" band, see Rattle and Hum. If not, don't.

Dear Sports Department: Congratulations should be extended to all the participants in the first Trinity Day Care Olympics. The games included cycling, tennis ball relays, and an obstacle course that unfortunately didn't work out too well, given the free wills of two-year-olds. Nonetheless, the games provided a day of fun excercise for fiteen tots and some comic relief for the supervising teachers. Special thanks to Sigma Nu brothers Mike Joyce, and Rob Vallette for their volunteer work at the games.

Strengths: Goaltending, Promising young stars, an independent farm team. Housecicaning is needed. Even if the Whale does somehow make their way into the playoffs, they are going to need help soon if they plan on going anywhere. They don't have the horses to run in the Adams Division without getting trampled by the big boys. And now that Buffalo is having a resurgence, and Quebec is packed with young players. Hartford is in trouble. Who Should Go: Joel Quenneville. He's still somewhat effective, but he is slower than slow, and his career is winding down. Brent Peterson. When was his last shot on goal? Even Doug Jarvis. in the same defensive role as Peterson, could put the puck in the net once in a while. There is no room for him. Dave Babych. He has played fairly well, but Babych is in demand, especially from Philadelphia, and a Scott Mellanby or Peter Zezel would be mighly attractive. Sylvain Turgeon. His trade value is still fairly high, and packaging him with Ron Francis for an established star would be a good move. Richard Brodeur. Dead weight keeping young goalies even lower in the minors. Mark Reeds. Paid too much to play in the minors and take up a roster spot. Roger Kortko. Why'.' Dean Evason. He has played alright, but has shown no real improvement following his rookie year. Who Should Stay (no matter what): Kevin Dineen. The heart and soul of the team. Ulf Samuelsson. The best defenseman on the team, and getting better. Mike Liut. Rumors to the contrary he is not losing it and he adds vital leadership. Scott Young. An emerging star. Adam Burt. Youngster with great potential. Jody Hull. Ditto. DaveTippett. Every team needs a Dave Tipped. He works hard, ki I Is penalties, plays every clay, and can score 15-20 goals a year. Greatest Needs: Big. physical center. A sniping winger. A creative center. A younger defensive defenseman. What They Have To Offer (people other teams want): Turgeon. Francis. Sylvain Cote. Ray Ferraro, Babych. Assistant Coach Jack Tannar leads a drill at a recent hockey practice.

All fill needs. Other Problems: The GM. The Emile Francis syndrome has hit the Whalers. It happened in St. Louis and New York. He gets the team to a high level, but never to a championship, only to see them crash and burn. Losing Stewart Gavin in the waiverdraft; protecting Ed Kastelic; the Dave Jobs in Australia Barr, Mark Reeds, and Charley Bourgeois fiascos. Lindsay Carson in the minors.

Bird originally enrolled at Indiana University, but being from such a rural background, could not deal with the big- city college life at IU.

The College View Cafe Scoreboard

Athletes of the Week This week's College View Cafe Ath- letes of the Week are Terry Mc- Namara and Darren Toth. Both play- ers were named to the ECAC Divi- sion III First Team. McNamara, a junior wide receiver, led the Bants and NESCAC with 50 receptions, and was the team's "go-to" guy in clutch situations. Despite some nag- ging injuries, Toth, a junior safety, played outstanding defense all year, and returned punts and kickoffs in a style nothing less than astounding. Congratulations, gentlemen, on your fine seasons!

Good Luck to All Winter Sports Teams! Tuesday is $3 Pitcher Night at The View
