Senate urges killing Engineering Excellence By Tracy Fletcher Staff writer The Jo in t Legislative Budget Committee adjourned Tuesday night without deciding on the fate of A SU ’s proposed Engineering Excellence program and the 1982-83 univer­ sity operation budgets. Current Senate budget recommendations to cut more than $6 m illion from A SU ’s 196283 operating budget will ax funding for the University’s Engineering Excellence pro­ gram . The Senate Education Budget subcommit­ tee recommended Tuesday that the JL B C give $89 m illion to the University, $3.5 million below the Senate subcomittee’s original recommendation. W The figure is $6.1 million less than that proposed by the House subcommittee. Sen. Robert Usdane, R -Scottsdale, member of the joint budget committee, said all “ decision packages” — new or expanded programs — have been eliminated from the three university budgets. However, Sen. John P ritzlaff, R-Phoenix, chairman of the joint budget committee, said the panel was trying to establish a base figure and now would consider funds available for decision packages. He said some of the packages could be restored dur­ ing the budgetary process. During committee hearings. Monday, Pritzlaff said that “ every dollar spent (dur­ ing the budgeting of other state agencies) would be one less dollar for the univer­ sities.’’ H ie Senate originally recommended $93 million for ASU to include the Engineering Excellence program, the University’s No. 1 priority. The allocation allowed for the crea­ tion of 22 new full-tim e positions to man the program. The Senate sliced $3.5 million off its original request. H ie House recommended the University be given approximately $95.1 m illion, which would include the Engineering Excellence package and the 22 new positions.

The current Senate recommendation is $7.4 million less than that appropriation. President J . Russell Nelson said Wednes­ day any reductions in the legislative ap­ propriation for 1962-83 would slow down the progress of the Engineering Excellence pro­ gram . At that time he was optimistic the University request would be granted. Rep. John Wettaw, R -Flagstaff, said that when the JL B C adjourned at 9:40 Tuesday night, the subcommittees were “ still cutting deals for the university budgets.” The Joint Legislative subcommittees will reconvene at 4:30 today. New hoop coach: Penn's Weinhauer By Je ff Fries Sports writer University of Pennsylvania Coach Bob Weinhauer, a “ dominant, disciplined, extremely competitive m an,” is the new head basketball coach at ASU , Athletic Director Dick Tamburo announced Tuesday. Weinhauer, who took the Penn Quakers to the Final Four of the NCAA tournament in 1979, takes the place of 25-year head Coach Ned Wulk, who was fired March 8 and reassigned to an adm inistrative position. A search committee pared the long list of candidates down to three by 7 p.m . Monday, Tamburo said, and left him to make the decision. “ He (Weinhauer) is a man of charism a and knowledge,” Tamburo said. “ We’re elated to have such a quality guy come to ASU . “ While at Penn and without the benefit of athletic scholar­ ships, he competed with the best college basketball has to of­ fer,” he added. “ He also brings a thorough awareness of the value of academ ic life from his time in the Ivy League. ” Weinhauer’s selection will be announced at a press con­ ference today. Weinhauer, 42, who owns a career record of 99-45 at Penn,, started as an assistant under Chuck Daly in 1973 before suc­ ceeding Mm in 1977. He holds a 6-5 record in NCAA tourna­ ment play. “ He plays 94 feet (the length of a court),” said Herb Hart­ nett, Penn sports information director. “ He likes to play basic defense, a lot of man-to-man stuff. He never waits until half-court to pick up on defense. “ Offensively, he’ll play any way, preferably an up-tempo,’’ he added. “ He’s an aggressive person, and his style is that of an aggressive person. He’s a coach’s coach. ” Tamburo said that Weinhauer’s salary would be approx­ im ately $50,000 annually. Actual terms of a contract will be discussed when Weinhauer arrives today. There was no word on whether assistant coaches Paul Howard and Jim Newman, who were said to be in the running for the position down to the wire, would stay on in their pre­ sent capacities. “ That will be his (Weinhauer’s) option,” Tamburo said. “ He can pick the assistants he wants.” And there is no telling how the returning ASU players, who admittedly wanted to see one of the assistants stay on as head coach, will react to Weinhauer’s selection. “ I wouldn’t expect (unfavorable player reaction),” Tam­ buro said. “ Let’s be positive and get tMngs going. “ Let’s say this is a new era in ASU athletics and go from there.” Weinhauer was named Eastern Coach of the Y ear for tak­ ing his 1978-79 Quakers (25-7), a member school of Philadelphia’s Big Five, to the Final Four in his second year as coach. That year, Penn was awarded the Widmer Cup for being the top college basketball team in the East. Dean of Students investigating possible rape By Phil Roth Staff writer An investigation into an alleged rape at Palo Verde West Residence Hall has been turned over to the Dean of Students Office after the Maricopa County attorney’s office refused to prosecute the case. There are reports that some of those being investigated are ASU football players. H ie name of the alleged victim has not been released, but she has reportedly dropped out of school and moved home. The alleged rape is reported to have oc­ curred during a March 6 party on the fourth floor of PV West. University Police investigated the matter and forwarded the findings March 24 to the county attorney’s office for prosecution. ASU Det. Robert Jones said the county turned the case back to University Police on March 29. Jones would neither confirm nor deny that ASU athletes were involved. Deputy County Attorney Wayne Stuart would not comment on the case The case m ay have been handed back to the University because the alleged victim did not receive a physical examination within 48 hours of the alleged incident and therefore her physical evidence would not be admissible in cow t. Manuel Figueroa, assistant dean of students, confirmed the case had been re­ ferred to his office, but would neither release the names of those being in­ vestigated nor comment on the reports that athletes were involved. He said he is in the process of contacting those involved and deciding whether University rules and regulations have been violated. A few weeks after the party, residents on the third floor of the dorm found in front of a black football player’s room a piece of card­ board with a drawing of a castrated, black m ale, the words “ die nigger die” and an in­ dication that the message was from the Ku Klux Klan. A burning trash can had been placed in front of the cardboard. PV West Unit Direct«* Rick C «in ell said the K K K incident may be related to the alleged rape, but did not specify how and added there is no way to verify such a con­ nection.

M iller acknowledged ASA has had a “ hard tim e” working with Cooper this year. He also said ASA is aware of its internal difficulties. For in­ stance, he said ASA has suffered from a lack of commitment because of students’ busy schedules, as well as from poor com­ munication. “ A b ill will be defeated up here and students down at U of A may not know about it till two or three days later,” he said. ASASU President Denise Dreiseszun said ASA could be more effective if there was a stonger commitment from the three universities to work together. ASASU President-elect Neil Giuliano, who served on the ASA board this year, said he would like to see a budget equivalent to $1 per every student enorlled in the state’s three universities. Giuliano added that ASA’s board of directors is too large. “ I definitely think 15 is too m any,” he said. “ There is not wwaigh for an individual board member to do on a day-to-day basis, so we have board members that aren’t working on sipGcific tasks.” Giuliano also said he thinks the board needs stronger direction from its chairm an, and the chairman should have the power to appoint and remove people from committees. ‘ ‘We should redefine the purpose of ASA , come up with a clear mission and statement of what ASA is, come up with a stronger Committee structure and a task-force system ,” he said.

The winner, chosen for her personality, poise and talent, will serve as a representative for the Indian people on campus, on the reservations and in the com­ munity. Rowena M assey, 22, a senior in intercultural communication, has been Miss In­ dian ASU for the past two years. She has also served as M iss White Mountain Apache in 1980 and 1981. Massey will crown her successor at 7 p.m. in the Education Lecture Hall as part of this week’s Cultural Awareness Week, spon­ sored by the Native Am erican Students Association. She stressed the importance of maintain­ ing the Indian culture to her and to the students she represents. “ The sole purpose of the cultural week and one of the main reasons for the pageant is letting people know we’re here, talking about our heritage and sharing it,” she said. In addition to the pageant, the association will host a traditional Indian fashion show, today at 4 p.m . in the M U Pim a Room. Prior to this year, Miss Indian ASU was chosen by NASA in a nomination process. This year five judges will choose from seven candidates, who will each demonstrate some traditional talent at the pageant. NASA has raised more than $700 of the ap­ proximately $850 in total expenses for the event. . Most of the money cam e from private con­ tributions, and Massey said she hopes that the remaining sum is raised by tonight. The P “ I did pretty much what I wanted to do,” she said. “ I traveled to different reserva­ tions, attended different conferences and talked to students on campus. ” Massey is proud of her Indian heritage, but also enjoys talking to other students about their cultures. Most Indians on campus really want to know what’s going on, she said, but it is often hard for the Indian student to fit into the social structure of ASU . “ The reservation life is much different from city life ,” she said. Massey felt that one of the biggest obstacles facing the Indian student was get­ ting used to a new language. “ The difference between the Indian and English language is phenomenal,” she said. Rowena M assey association hopes to give each of the en­ trants $25, and the winner $150. Except for that money, Miss Indian ASU is financially on her own, Massey said. “ It got pretty expensive,” she said. “ I wasn’t paid to attend anything, or for travel expenses, and it was hard som etim es.” During her reign as Miss Indian ASU , Massey said she had no real schedule of events to attend.

There can also be a lot of prejudice on both sides, and often they don’t even know it.” As a general rule, Massey said most In­ dians return to the reservation to help the tribal people. However, the decision often requires a lot of “ soul searching,” since highly educated Indians may sometimes be rejected by fellow tribe members, she said. “ I want to get together with other Indian students attending college from my reserva­ tion,” she said. “ I want to get them together and help to raise more money for the students.” After she graduates she hopes to eventual­ ly counsel Indian students, as well as help the students get financial aid. Wednesday, April 14,1982 State-Press Page 11 N ew cheering team seeks ASU recognition By Jim Austin Staff writer A student cheering squad that plans to restore ASU’s lost spirit will submit a constitution to the Dean of Students in an attempt to receive on-campus recognition. Je ff H iller, coordinator of the group “ D evil’s Dominion,” said by gaining on-campus status they will be eligible to publicize for membership on campus and obtain a budget from Associated Students of ASU . Once the organization increases its membership and receives money, he said it hopes to have a section in the Sun Devil Stadium where students hold up cards to form large patterns, pictures and words. “ We hope to raise student spirit for school sport events, and start a tradition," H iller said. Manuel Figueroa, coordinator for student organizations said a group must have a constitution, an ASU faculty or staff member for an adviser and be registered with the University to be recognized as an on-campus organization. “ We’ll review and make sure there is no violation of University law s,” he said. “ There are numerous organiza­ tions like this, s o l don’t expect any com plications.” H iller said the m ajor problem of the Devil’s Dominion will be soliciting membership. He said the group wants to increase its present member­ ship of 100 to 1,000, through banner advertising and other methods, in order to make the card section a success. “ I ’m sure if we advertised, we’d get more than enough response,” he said, “ especially when the new freshmen come next fa ll.” H iller said the group has communicated with the Universi­ ty of niippis, Michigan State University and U CLA for advice and recommendations. University of Illinois students said it costs them $2,000 a year to maintain a card section. However,. H iller said the first year will take about $3,000-4,000 for the cards, advertising and administration. Allen Frazier, assistant dean of students, said ASU had a card .section in 1964 that was “ very successful,” but was discontinued for a number of reasons. He said the Vietnam War era, A SU ’s growth and lack of cooperation with the students all influenced its discontinua­ tion. . The idea was reintroduced in 1975, but only lasted for one game because of lack of cooperation with the students, which caused a safety hazard, Frazier said. “ To be successful, they need to build on a feeling of unity of spirit to promote A SU ,” he said. “ They need to find enough students to build their support base. ’ ’ However, he said “ there’s no guarantee of the students’ cooperation.” N e w student technical publication pushes for engineering excellence By Beth Kilgore Staff writer In a continuing effort to make excellence a synonym for engineering at ASU , the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences began distributing its new m agazine, Technical Horizons, throughout the campus qnH rmnmimity this week The tochnipnl m agazine will be published each sem ester and is supported almost entirely by advertising. The purpose of the magazine is to serve as a communication link between the college and the community, said' Keith Roe, associate professor of engineering communications and m agazine adviser. “ It is to let alumni and industry know what we’re doing at the school,” said Paul Birmingham, engineering junior and staff writer for Technical Horizons. Students complete all work on the publicstion including business affairs, writing and editing, with support from the engineering faculty and adm inistration. . «We tried to encourage it, but didn’t.want to be out in front. We thought it should b e « student effort,” said Clovis Haden, dean of Angiflooring The college did, however, make a loan available from some private funds to get the magazine started, Haden said. Carolyn Brown, College of Engineering administrative coordinator, said the $13,000 loan was comprised of “ local funds” and will be nearly repaid through $12,475 received from first-issue advertising, The magazine deals with activities and research within the college, and informs readers of technical innovations and study in the various engineering departments, The publication also serves Valley industry by publishing articles and advertisements aimed at recruiting quality personnel and presenting company policies to faculty, students and alumni, Haden said he was pleased with the first issue and felt that it had accomplished its purpose. Birmingham agreed saying, “ Actually, I was a little bit surprised by it and I am really pleased." Getting Technical Horizons started was the most difficult aspect of its two-year planning period. “ The decision was finally made by the Engineering College Council when it was clear there was enough student support,” Haden said. The magazine staff is composed of engineering and journalism students, but Haden encouraged interested students from all disciplines to get involved with the new publication.

ARIZO NA 8 5004 I Page 12 State Press Wednesday, April 14,1982 Bumper crop NFL draft signifies Invest time' at ASU's football factory By Pete Prisco Assistant sports editor On many a scorching autumn night, Sun Devil Stadium , the home of the Arizona State football team, has been the scene of a fine football extravaganza. A t noon, however, on this April afternoon, the stadium sits dormant but for a few sunners and Joggers trying to inch closer to that perfect summer look. But directly beneath the mammoth sc w e board that has flashed countless Sun Devil victories, a clinking — as in the banging of weights— can be heard ringing throughout the stadium like wind chimes. The clinking is interwined with grunts and groans — of the human kind — and it’s all coming from inside the building that houses the ASU football team ’s weight training facility. The structure (equipment included), on most days, has a value of approximately $100,000. But on this day the value has soared considerably. No, Reaganomics has not come out of its embryonic stages. And no, the folks over at Fort Knox haven’t decided to temporarily house some of their goodies there. The reason for this marked increase in value is the work of the [Residents of ASU’s football factory for 1961, R iggs, Weathers, M eyer, Pagel and Bell’ In case you haven’t heard of these execs, they just happen to be the nucleus of possibly the finest bunch of senior talent on any one team entering the April 27-28 N FL draft. President Riggs is fullback Gerald Riggs! President Weathers is halfback Robert Weathers. President Meyer is offen­ sive tackle John Meyer. President Pagel (he used to be a field general) is quarterback Mike Pagel. And President Bell is tight end Jerry Bell. A ll are predicted to go in the first three rounds of the draft. All of them will probably be able to wallpaper their living room w alls with the money they will make in their careers. Several ASU vice-presidents will also pro­ bably hear their names tabbed on April 28— in the later rounds. These VPs are cornerback Kendall W illiam s, linebackers Joey Lumpkin and Darren Comeaux, wide out Bernard Henry, running back Newton W illiams and offensive linemen Tony Loia and Darryl Mueske. Together the two groups have the N FL scouts drooling. “ It’s as excellent a group that I have seen this year,” said Seattle Sea hawks’ Director of Player Personnel D ick Mansperger. “ I don’t know one school that has more pros­ pects than ASU . Those players as a group rank right up there as one of the best, if not the b est” “ They are a very strong group, there’s no doubt about it,” said Minnesota Vikings Director of Player Personnel Je rry Reichow. “ ASU is always a m ajor producing college that every scout goes to,” said Tampa Bay Buccaneers Director of Player Personnel Ken Herbeck. “ It’s not like some, where you go some years and others you don’t. You always go to A SU , and this year they are ex­ tremely strong.” It’s quite obvious that ASU has quite an assembly line turning out players. The following is a synopsis erf the “ elite.” Gerald R iggs: Sitting cm the 50-yard line at Sun Devil Stadium , Gerald Riggs was reminiscing about his playing days in the ASU backfield. “ This place still holds a lot of memories for m e,” said the 6-foot-l, 235-pounder from Las Vegas. “ It’s not like 1 was a star here, but I really remember a lot about this place. When I sit here all kinds of things come through my mind. I just sit here and let my mind go.” R iggs’ mind be a mad jum ble of bits and pieces when he does look bade — he has so many things to remember, like his 207-yard performance against Colorado State in 1961. But regardless of his performances the past four years (2,066 yards rushing), Riggs still has not received the publicity of his counterpart at USC — Heisman Trophy win­ ner M arcus Allen. “ When I was in high school, I was a Mar­ cus Allen as far as getting the ball 30 to 40 times a gam e,” Riggs said. “ But with all the talent we have h o e a t running back, there was no way I would get the ball that much. “ But I really don’t need the publicity that those other guys get,” he added. “ I don’t thrive off that stuff. I know what I can do. I don’t need to hear and read it.” But he’s hearing a lot of it now. In fact, he is being talked about as being a higher selec­ tion than such other notable running backs like Allen, Stanford’s Darrin Nelson, continued psgs 13 Realizing they’re a little bigger and trattar in the NFL, John M eyer w ork* out with the weights lour times a week.

Gerald is one of our top people.” But were it not for an incident with former ASU head coach and current Baltimore Colts head man Frank Kush as a freshman, Riggs may not be getting this golden oppor­ tunity. “ I thought about leaving my freshman year,” he said. “ One tim e I was so low, I ended up being a half-hour late for practice. I figured when I got there Kush would give me a tongue-lashing. B ut, when I got there he said he understood and I didn’t even have to practice. In fact, he sat down and talked to me like a father figure. It was at that time I realized when things change, I ’ll have to accept it.” . For his decision to stay, Riggs was rewarded with Freshm an All-Am erica ac­ colades. In the following seasons, Riggs’ rushing totals increased each year as he rushed for 363 yards in 1979,422 yards in 1980 and 891 yards in 1981. A ll the while attract­ ing scouts’ attention. And how is the man with the 28-inch thighs —that resemble logs— taking all this? “ Ju st the other day was the first day it hit m e,” he said. “ I said to m yself, ‘Oh, here it com es.” And Riggs isn’t kidding when he says here it comes. Because if the scouts’ assessments of him are correct, what will be coming is a flood of green—as in money green. Robert Weathers: A writer for a national magazine recently described the Riggs-Weathere running back tandem as the, “ Who are they backfield?” Obviously, this fellow doesn’t pay much at­ tention to scouts. The scouts are very high on W eathers, but they all expressed concern about an injury that kept tom from playing in the last four regular-season gam es, as well as several post-season all-star games. “ Weathers has an awful lot of natural ability,” Reichow said. “ But he really didn’t get a chance to show it with the injury last year. He’s the type of kid who could bust out in the pros.” “ Weathers has not had the success that Gerald has had, but he has had little control over the things that have happened to him ,” Mansperger said. “ I really do believe his best days are ahead of him. ” Though some of the scouts are concerned, Weathers said they really need not worry. “ I had a slightly sprained knee,” he said. “ It hurt and I felt it to my best interest not to play. As for toe all-star games, I didn’t feel I could do my best, and I didn’t want the scouts to remember me by my last gam e if I were to do bad.” Although he did miss the last four con­ tests, Weathers still managed to gain 711 yards, and totalled 2,158 for his four-year career. But if it wasn’t for a phone call from the University of Florida after the 6-feot-l, 217- pounder graduated from Central High School in Fort Pierce, F la ., he might be toting machine guns for the U .S . Army in­ stead of footballs. “ After not playing my senior year, I wasn’t recruited out of high school right aw ay,” he said. “ I was all set to enlist in the arm y, when the day before I was to go, Florida called. Then ASU got interested and I decided to come here.” But once again, the career of Robert Weathers was alm ost shelved when he didn’t return for the spring semester of 1961. And be dam near alm ost never cam e back because of some problems on the home front. But things seem to have worked out for the better for the always cheerful Weathers. Currently, he works out during the week, and more times than not his nine-month old son, M ike, can be seen not too far away. “ I’ve never been one to play for the peo­ ple,” he said. “ I ’ve always played for God. But now, I ’m more motivated to play because of M ike. He won’t understand it for a while, but when he does I’m going to get very excited about playing for him .” Several teams have shown interst in Weathers, but he said it really doesn’t mat­ ter, although Tampa Bay or M iam i “ sounds pretty good.” “ I’m not worried about the round or anything like that just as long as I get pick­ ed,” he said. That just may be the understatement of the year. There's no doubt Weathers is get­ ting picked. H ie only question is, in which round— the first or toe second? John M eyer: Three years ago, John Meyer was a for­ ward on the Glendale Community College basketball team. Today, he is being touted as one of the top collegiate offensive tackles in the country along with M ichigan’s Bubba P aris, Texas’ T o r y Tausch and U CLA ’s Luis Sharpe. A strange fate for a player who once opted for two-shot fouls instead of 15yard holding penalties. “ I was more recruited for football than basketball after high school (Phoenix Alhambra High School),” Meyer said. “ But I really didn’t like football at that tone. So, I decided to play basketball. My basketball background has helped me as far as pass blocking goes.” It’s Meyer’s pass blocking prowess that has opened some scouts’ eyas to the 6-foot-6, 260-pounder. Some of them, however, have expressed concern with his basketball-like fram e. “ I think John has been handled beautiful­ ly ,” Mansperger said. “ The way ASU throws toe b all he has had a lot of work on pass protection. The John Meyer you see to­ day is not the sam e person you’ll see in three years. He’ll get much bigger through a weight program .” “ Meyer looks to be an outstanding player,” Herbeck said. “ I compare him favorably to Atlanta’s All-Pro M ike Kenn when he came out of M ichigan.” Looking at M eyer, it’s hard to figure out why anyone would possibly want him to put on weight. He looks to fit toe perfect mold of a fine pass-blocking tackle, although he surety doesn’t resemble some of the N FL tackles that need a Wide Load sign on their backs when they walk dowm toe street. “ A lot of teams have told me that I need to put on weight,” Meyer said. “ But in the last three years, I ’ve put on 10 pounds a year.
