In 1982, Feerick returned to the place he began, Fordham University, by becoming dean of Fordham Law. Feerick says he has always had a special place in his heart for the University, especially since he was born and raised in the Bronx. One of five children, three of whom at- tended Fordham, Feerick claims he chose Fordham because of its close proximity to his home and its well-known reputation in academics. Although Feerick was a "dayhop" (a once common term for commuting students) while he attended Fordham College, he was very involved in extra-curricular activities. Along with being a political-science major, he was involved in the Fordham Club and was also vice president of the Student Government in his senior year. After graduation in 1958, Feerick immediately entered Fordham Law School In law school Feerick was just as popular as he was in college. At Fordham Law, Feerick was chosen by his classmates to be editor-in-chief of the Fordham Law Review, a position considered to be the highest honor a law student can receive. While in law school Feerick concentrated in Labor Law, but also held an interest in Constitution Law and has since become one of the nation's experts on Presidential succession. Feerick became involved in, and helped draft the 25th Amendment to the Constition, an amendment concerning presidential succession; especially, the procedure for replacing the president if he dies or resigns while in office. Feerick received true recognition when the 25th JOHN FERRICK (bottom left) poses with fellow members of the 1958 Ford- Amendment was used in the Watergate crisis during the ham United Student Government. Ferrick was elected vice president. resignation of President Richard Nixon. When Feerick graduated Law School in 1961, he went to work at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher and Flom, a and a few students. The committee screened each person the participation of every living graduate in the eye of the small law firm in New York consisting of approximately 10 who applied and picked a select few they thought would do school."

Stiffer penalties, such as fines, are the best way to try to rid the campus of the offenders and discourage them from repeating their violations. ' We can'I figure out the precise reasons why students persist in their childish and mindless acts, especially when there are a host of other things they could set their minds on. But, it seems that some of us haven't progressed to the point of development where rules are honored. It may seem like a minor point but respect for the rules and others is a virtue (hat should not disappear, even though we are not yet out in the "real world" as some professors like to say. The basic issue is one of respect. No one is above the rules and no one should be above them. Artists should not have to worry that students who dislike their art will vandalize it and the deli should not have to concentrate on shoplifting, as it does now, as Dee Catucci told THE RAM. Although there was only a minor incident of shoplifting (for a Twinkie), the deli has taken appropriate action. Students caught shoplifting will have to pay for the product, donate money to the soup kitchen and work in the deli for five hours. Stricter action for campus rule violators is needed. No one should get off easily from a violation such as the art destruction or vandalism of our security phone system. Service to the University, writing a code of conduct or being put on probation are just not strong enough measures. Fines are the best form of punishment because they hit violators where it hurts—in the wallet. Fines can and should be increased if violators continue to vandalize, steal, falsify or destroy anything on the campus. They are the best form of discouragement for those who would repeat their crimes. Once an offender realizes a fine can and will be increased, he or she will be reluctant to repeal their violations. In this way fines are the most effective and efficient way of discouraging future incidents. The campus will never be completely rid of the ever-present rule breakers. But tougher san- RamOpi ctions, such as fines, should be imposed to deter would-be vandals and thiefs. They would serve to remind people that they won't be freed of their responsibility for their violations. And, it Letters to the EditOF would free various University departments and minds from the worry of vandalism so they can get on with the business of service and education.

John Cougar's American Fool LP was the biggest with Andrew Mold selling album of 1982. It sold over three million copies and according to Billboard magazine, Cougar became the first living male artist in over a decade to have two top-10 singles ("Hurt So Good" and "Jack and Diane") and a number one album simultaneously. He was named artist-of-the- vcar in all the major rock magazine polls. And now Cougar is delivering more in the form of his newest album John CougarMellencamp.,. Uh-Huh. Before you talk about the new album, you have to un- derstand the background of John "Cougar" Mellencamp. Born as John Mellencamp, lie was raised in Seyour, In- diana, a place that he described as "the kind of place kids oiilcln'l wait to get out of." As a teen, lie ran with the ••bad boys" of the town. "We were the ones drinking, the ones fighting, and the ones getting in trouble," he says. l( was as a (ecu that Nklleneamp began fooling around with rock and roll ban- ds, playing guitar and singing. "We used lo play fraternities for $.10 a weekend," he recalls, At 22, he formed his first band, appropriately named ! rash, the members of which dressed so outrageously that nobody would hire them to play live. "We were into a Bowie type of thing but Bowie was too dressed up and our look was more greasy and Mexican," says Cougar. A year later he set sails for New York where a lawyer of a small record company talked a very naive Mellencamp into paying $2000 for a demo tape. Naturally, nothing ever materialized and he was out $2000. With his expensive tape in hand, he began to knock on doors. He eventually was signed by Tony DeFries, who was an assistant to David Bowie's manager. His first record Chestnut Street Incident was considered a very sobering ex- perience that featured renditions of the most bizarre cover songs. Just before the release of the album on MCA, Mallencamp got his name change. "DeFries showed me the album cover which read: '.Johnny Cougar.' He said that he couldn't sell the name John Mellencamp to the public. He claimed he'd made David Bowie successful by getting rid of Howie's real name, David Jones. Then he told me if Cougar wasn't the name on the record, there wouldn't be a record." Despite the name change, the album was panned by the clitics as a monumental flop.

If the Aqua Rams can improve on their success this year, look for them to battle the Navys and Bucknells next year for Eastern supremacy. CLASSIFIEDS

THE RAM/THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10,1983/15 On the Sidelines Alaskan Adventure with Mike Sheridan "Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to find a way to get to Alaska to cover the Great Alaska Shootout for The Ram," stated Ram Editor-in-Chief Bob Ponichtera. "There is one catch," he continued, "you'll have to get there without any funds from the newspaper. Good luck!" The wheels began to turn in the old mind. I would need help if 1 was to pull this off and Ponichtera offered me the services of any two staff members. My first selection was my co-sports editor Jim Smith. Though labeled a sex-starved zealot by some, Smith was a' varsity high school football player and could provide some muscle. He's no Mr. T., by any means, but what other choice did I have1* "1 had always wanted to go on assignment for The Kam and the only other alternative Ponichtera offered me was a MAC-SAC weekend," said the senior. Next, we needed to choose a photographer. Smith and 1 tabbed Melissa Goodman for this assignment. She had said she wanted to go on a trip and hey, if you can't have the Bahamas, why not Alaska? The only problem with this was we only told Melissa that we were going for three days at a plush oceanfront site, where the nights seem to live forever. After selecting my squad, we went about tackling the problem of how to get there. My first thought was to stowe away in the team's equipment bags. 1 dismissed that idea simply because the airlines seem to lose as much luggage as the postal service does mail and with my luck I'd end up in some closet at the Calgary airport. The next idea was to travel by mass transit. The only problem with this one is that we would get to Alaska in about the time it takes for some Ram reporters to write an article. BARONOF The breakthrough came when we learned the Air Force Wrar would be ferrying supplies to a base in the direction of PRINCE OF WALES Alaska. We made arrangements to be aboard that plane. i/ For security reasons, the names of those involved in getting us on that flight cannot be released. We departed Fordham in the dead of night for Dover Air Force Base in New Jersey. We boarded the plane with the face.

Canisius Routs Rams, 26-7

by Michael Zuccarello For those who remember War Memorial Stadium in Buffalo, Saturday's Canisius- Fordham football game brought back fond memories, memories of the days when O.J. Sim- pson owned the gridiron and rambled over op- ponents lor the Bills. Like the theme of Bernard Malamud's The Natural, which is now being filmed at War Memorial with Robert Red ford as New York Knight baseball star Roy Hobbs, the old hero is replaced by another hero. The knight in shining armor for the Golden Griffins was freshman Mike Panepinto who galloped and lanced his way for a school-record 179 yards lo lead Canisius lo a 26-7 victory over the Rams. The running game, long synonomous with .a Memorial, once again prevailed. Fordham nad its own hero in Chip Kron who rushed for 100 yards even. Bui victory for the Rams escaped them!'with each fallen opportunity in the second half, as the defenses and mud from (hawing snow combined lo turn the contest into a stalemate. All the scoring took place in the first half. Coach O'Neal Tutein went into the lockerroom al halftime hoping to stop Panepinto. "We did all we could," he said. "I was a lil- tle annoyed at them, but we made a few adjust- ments. We played two deep instead of three deep and added an extra man on the line. We focused stirs with on stopping the run and rolling our secondary toward (heir Ail-American receiver (Tom Schott)." On this particular clay, nothing was going lo stop Panepinto. "We didn't do anything too well to stop him. He's very deceptive. He's not loo big or fast. Just mentally, we weren't well-prepared," Seven&Seven Tutein said. The Rams moved the ball well in the second half, but every lime they were within striking . distance, a turnover resulted. Late in the third quarter, Fordham look a punt lo its own 42-yard-line and drove to the Canisius 40. The offense was stifled at that point, and Fordham lined up in punt formation. Punter Scolt Atkinson faked Hie punt and threw a perfect pass to Joe Griffith, who carried the ball to Canisius' 24-yard line.
