Evan Mecham w ill go before the House select committee today to defend him self on charges that he tried to hide a cam paign loan, interfered with a state investigatioii of death threats in his office and embezzled state funds. Mecham w ill appear at 10 a.m . today and deliver a sworn statement to the six Republicans and four Dem ocrats on the panel. Mecham had asked that he be allowed to address the full House in its cham bers, but committee chairm an Rep. Jim Skelly denied the request, saying the governor w ill appear in the committee’s regular hearing room as other witnesses have. “ I ’ll cover the facts,” Mecham told his fe llo w R e p u b lican s at th eir an n ual convention in Phoenix Saturday. “ I ’ve been tried in the press for the last 3% m onths. . . and I ’ll have my opportunity, and I hope you’ll be tuned in so that you can get m y side of the story.” The governor’s testimony w ill w rap up m ore than a week of hearings on a report by House special counsel W illiam French that outlines the charges. The House is expected to vote on whether to enact articles of impeachment against the governor later this week. Thirty-one of the 60 House m em bers need to vote in favor to begin the impeachment trial. In that trial, the Senate w ill serve as the jury, as Arizona Supreme Court Justice Frank X. Gordon w ill preside. Saturday, Mecham held fast to his vow not to resign when he told Secretary of State Rose M offord he w ill run in the first recall election in Arizona history rather than step down. M offord, who opened the letter at 6 p.m. Saturday in accordance with Mecham ’s wishes, would have assumed the governor’s post had M echam resigned. But the embattled Glendale Republican said he intends to stay. “ I w as legally elected by the people of A rizon a and I intend to fu lfill m y responsibilities as governor of the state until those sam e people vote to rem ove m e from office, whether it be by a recall election in 1988 or in the general election of 1990 if I run for re-election at that tim e,” Mecham wrote. He added, “ I have broken no law s.” M offord said she would order a special recall election for M ay 17. Gubernatorial candidates w ill have to collect 3,336 valid petition signatures between Feb. 17 and M arch 18 to have their names appear on the ballot. Dem ocrat Carolyn W arner, who lost to Mecham in the three-way race in Novem ber 19%, has said she w ill run in the recall election. Form er U.S. House Minority Leader John Rhodes, a Republican, is considering whether to run. The governor, who also faces six felony charges stemming from his failure to disclose a $350,000 loan from Tempe developer B arry Wolfson, filed his 1988 personal finance disclosure statements Friday. The statements list the loan from Wolfson and the names of 13 individuals who signed $50,000 prom isory notes to back the loan. A 14th backer, W arner Stevens, w as not listed on the form.

Babbitt lashes out at Dem ocratic opponents’ policies B y VICKIE CH A C H ER E State P ress Bruce Babbitt, the form er Arizona governor turned presidential hopeful, launched a new attack on the Dem ocratic front-runners this weekencMUst one week before tiie crucial Iowa caucus. “ The risk now is to be cautious,” said Rick Martin, Babbitt’s deputy press secretary in Iowa. “ He who hestitates finishes fourth.” Babbitt needs to finish at least third in the Feb. 8 Iowa caucuses to attract the necessary media attention and financial support needed to continue his bid for the Dem ocratic nomination, political analysts say. Babbitt began his attacks Saturday when he questioned Illinois Sen. Paul Simon’s loyalty the the Dem ocratic party. simnn received the endorsement of the Des M oines Register, the state’s largest newspaper, Sunday. In a speech planned fo r Sunday afternoon, B abbitt planned to question Massachusettes Gov. M ichael Dukakis’ platform and w ill criticize M issouri Rep.

He added that Simon’s social program platform is, “ the most expensive public works project since the Egyptian pyram ids.” P at Mitchell, Simon’s Iowa cam paign coordinator, said, “ Being called unfaithful to the principles of the Democratic party is like being called forgetful by Ronald Reagan. “ Basically, what Babbitt’s doing is trying to deflect attention from his own problem s. Everyone here thinks he’s gone off the deep end.” Babbitt had planned to add some “spice” to his campaign during the last week of cam paigning to go along with a television ad blitz so that the average Iowa view er would see Babbitt cam paign spots six or seven times during the next week. Scott Phelps, a deputy press secretary in Babbitt’s Phoenix cam paign headquarters, said the speech w as not intended to be hostile, but Babbitt wanted to point out the differences between him self and Simon. “ Somewhere along the line what has gotten lost is that a candidate puts all his cards on the table and lets the voters look at them,” said Phelps, who served as Babbitt’s press secretary during Babbitt’s last year as governor. On Feb. 8, about 250,000 Iowans w ill turn out at precinct caucuses to-indicate their preference for president. Robert Beckel, form er cam paign m anager for W alter Mondale and now an analyst with Washington-based National Strategies, said: “ Babbitt is poised to have some significant breakthrough this week, and he knows what he needs to do.

FIJI president hopes to nix ‘Animal House’ image B y S C O T T LU C K State P ress A fter a m assive reorganization that cut A S U ’s P h i G a m m a D e lt a ( F I J I ) fr a t e r n it y ’ s m embership by two-thirds, the F IJIs hope to dispel their “ Anim al House” im age and rebuild a responsible organization. “ W e don’t want to m aintain the im age of an anim al house. W e want to maintain the im age that w e’re a philanthropic house — that w e’re the people who do the community service,” A SU F IJ I President D avid M artin said during an inform al Sunday interview. The F U Is are on disciplinary probation for the next two years and w ill have to move out of their Old Row home June 1 because of hazing violations that occurred (JiefOre M artin assumed the house presidency. A fter m om entarily discussing the mysterious disappearance of the house “ tiki” ornament Saturday night, M artin and active m em ber K arl Roessler, d a d in a “ F IJ I” sweatshirt, departed for a casual breakfast interview at ah Apache Boulevard xestaurant The F U I brothers related how several mem bers broke house regulations last semester,, and 26 w ere subsequently expelled from the fraternity, and many friends of the de-activated mem bers witiidrew, thus cutting the m embership from about 120 to 40, current active Roessler said. M artin, a political science senior, said the fraternity plans on “ beefing up” its m embership hut is shooting for a relatively sm all total of 70 to 80 m em bers, to keep up the unified feeling of the house that w as generated during the hazing investigation. M artin said the fraternity has. experienced the sam e depressed pledge interest that has been evident throughout A SU ’s Greek system during this sem ester’s Rush Week. He added the amount of negative press may have affected pledge interest. Two prospective Jewish pledges decided not to join the house because of reported anti-Semitic incidents, M artin said. The Jewish incidents were instigated by mem bers who w ere kicked out of the fraternity, according to a F IJ I counsel response document to the University’s statement of charges. This semester, M artin said the fraternity would like to attract 15 to 20 “ unique” individuals to join the tight-knit F IJ I fam ily. “ It’s a fam ily feeling because w e’ve been t h r o u g h h e ll t o g e t h e r ,” R o e s s le r , a communications senior, said, alluding to the struggle the fraternity began last January to successfully restore unity after in-fighting separated the house into two factions. “ It w as the worst year of m y life.” M artin and Roessler stressed that the benefits of the reorganization w ere w ell worth losing the F IJ Is’ campus home. Even though the house faced the loss of its registration as a campus organization last sem ester, an evaluator from the national headquarters in Lexington, K y., said that the house had im proved “ 11” on a scale of one to 10 in the past year, M artin said.

M eese, under investigation for corrupt business practices, has been linked to the affair by a 1985 memo from his longstanding friend, E . Robert W allach. In the memo to Meese, W allach, an Am erican Jewish attorney, cited a plan to pay off a top-ranking Israeli official in return for a guarantee that Israel would not bom b the pipeline.

State Press ____________________________ Monday FebmaiY 1f 1988 ............ P a g e j^ Tem pe p olice ch ief retires after 20 years of se rv ice By MIKE BU R G ESS State P ress A fter nearly 20 years as Tem pe’s top cop, Police Chief Arthur Fairbanks hung up his holster for good on Friday. ■ “ I ’ve been a lawm an for 43 years and it’s just time to retire,” Fairbanks said as he - toyed with a sm all plastic police car during an interview in his second story office at police headquarters. Fairbanks, 63, officially retires in April. He w ill spend the next two weeks aiding D avid Brown,40, the new chief, who served 12 years on the Tem pe force before becoming Yum a’s chief of police in 1980. He said although he is retiring, he doesn’t want to leave law enforcement entirely. “ I want to do some consulting,” he said. “ I hope to do a little w riting also.” Fairbanks, who w as born in Baltim ore and raised in the Valley, cam e to the Tempe Police Departm ent in 1969. Before taking over the reins of the Tem pe force, he spent 22 years with the Phoenix Police department, where he reached the rank of deputy chief. He spent one year as chief in Yum a. Fairbanks, who has done every police job except motorcycle patrol, is the city’s third chief of police. Under Fairbanks the department has grow n from 40 to 250 officers. The d e p a rtm e n t re c e n tly m oved into a m u ltim illio n -d o llar com plex and has adopted a new high-tech communications system. Fairbanks said during his years as chief, crim e in Tem pe has become m ore violent, which he said is caused by the city’s growing population and A SU students. “ The c o lle g e a g e -g ro u p is m ostly involved,” he said. “ The fact is that when you have 40,000 in that age-group like ASU, chances are you are going to have more crim e.” He also said the narcotics business in Tem pe has skyrocketed. Fairbanks’ norm ally reserved demeanor changed when asked about his department’s most publicized case — the 1985 m urder of 13-year-old newspaper carrier Christy Ann Fom off. “ There w as so much conjecture in that case,” he said, partly blam ing the press. “ That bothered m e a lot. It m ade (the detectives handling the case) look like stum blebum s.” Fornoff w as sexually assaulted, strangled and left behind a dumpster in a Tempe apartm ent complex. Donald Beatty, a maintenance m an at the complex, w as convicted of the crim es. During Fairbanks^ years with the Tempe police he has gained a reputation as a disciplinarian. He said he prides him self on the fact that the department has had rally one m ajor scandal under him. In the late-70s two Tem pe police officers resigned after they w ere arrested in Phoenix for soliciting prostitution. Fairbanks’ final year as chief probably w as his most difficult. He lost his first officer in September when Lt. John Bradshaw, a 20-year veteran of the force and father of four, w as killed by M artin J. Curran, a teacher at Tem pe’s Holdeman Elem entary School. Curran w as killed minutes later by three shotgun blasts fired by highway patrol officers after he took a hostage and commandeered a motorcycle. “ I had alw ays hoped that w e’d never lose an officer,” he said. “ It w as one of those things I really wanted to see. I almost made it. It w a s a g re a t tra g e d y to the departm ent.” Besides losing one of his men, Fairbanks w as sued by one of his officers. According to a $27 m illion lawsuit filed in October, Fairbanks and five other m embers of the department allegedly implemented a plan of harassment directed at Officer G ilb e rt “ F ritz ” T u ffli to cause his termination. The defendants falsely set up a perm anent crim inal investigative file charging Tuffli with m aking harrassing phone calls to the police department, the suit states. By KRISTI E L U S State P ress State budget committee calls for funds increase The Arizona Joint Legislative Budget Committee has recommended a 4.8 percent budget increase for the state university system, including a $22 million increase in general funds for ASU. But the joint committee recommendation is still $14 m illion less than University officials say they need to operate the University and implement new program s. The budget, which doesn’t balance, includes an alternative plan which could cost the University $5 million. A budget of nearly $170 m illion for the fiscal year 1988-89 w as recommended for ASU, an $8 million increase over last year’s approved operating budget. A SU W est would Arthur Fairbanks be granted $10.7 million, a $3 million increase from 1987-88. Frank Sackton, chairm an of the ASU budget council, said: “ I think the Legislature w ill be m ore inclined to select the budget prepared by its own staff, the JLBC. Historically, the Legislature has selected the JLBC budget.” The JLBC submitted a $2.97 billion budget Wednesday, requiring more than $248 million in additional funds. Ted Ferris, staff director of the JLBC, said the budget he submitted Wednesday provides a starting point for lawm akers, who must consider raising taxes and other revenues or cutting services.

Thom pson North American Syndicate "W hen you strike a t a king, you m ust k ill him . ’’ — Ralph W aldo Emerson. The sun comes up late in Phoenix. It w as still 7 in the morning when they threw me out of the Jacuzzi for being naked. I had complained that the w ater w asn’t hot enough, so a man in a brown suit with a heavy R E D voltmeter in his hand cam e rushing through the huge iron gate leading to the pool area and started yelling about all the things that w ere wrong. “ H ow fa r can they push me?” he shouted. “ W ho’s m aking a ll these complaints? Y ou’re naked! The w ater’s too cold, the guests went crazy, some rotten anim al screw-head turned m y lights out and screw ed around with m y tem perature v a lv e s .. . I q u it!” he scream ed. “ I hate my life !” “ Calm down,” I said. “ You’re sick! You’re a wretched lying whore! Y ou’re out ofyourm ind! Get aw ay from m e! Ih av em y own problem s!” I slid up from the w ater and down the cold slab stairs to m y cactus-covered suit on the fa r edge of the parking lot, where the sheriff w as waiting with two other men who said they w ere private detectives. “ These gentlemen want to ask you some q u estio n s,” sa id the s h e riff. “ They represent the Evan Mecham L egal Defense Fund.” “ W onderful,” I said. “ Let’s go outside.” They shuffled out, saying nothing, while I reached into m y golf bag and jerked out a 12-gauge Sm ith— Wesson riot gun, cranked one round of .00 high-brass buckshot into the cham ber and followed them outside. There w as a lot a quick scream ing when they saw the weapon. Everybody ran. I put eight rounds into the front of their rented Buick, and after that it w as quiet. * * * Nobody seemed to notice. These things happen in Phoenix. It is the only town in the w orld where people threaten to kill me every time I come to town. This time it w as beaten to death, which is alm ost mild, in context, or com pared to what happened to Don Bolles. Life is cheaper here than it was during the last days of Phnom Penh. M y bodyguard picked m e up and w e drove downtown to the state Capitol building, Mecham said he would appeal and stay in office forever. And this talk of impeachment w as just another scam to seize his money, ruin his life and make him a slave to pimps and liberals and yuppies. He brooded for a while, then w a it on the radio with a frantic, O ral Roberts-style appeal, begging for at least $200,000 to help pay his huge legal fees. That pretty w ell sums up Mecham’s situation. He is facing a serious recall election, six felony charges and a full-bore impeachment trial between now and June, and the mood in Arizona is vengeful. There is no such thing 'a s paranoia in Evan Mecham ’s life these days. His worst fears and most insane suspicions are a ll true. They really are out to get him. ‘There is no such thing'as paranoia in Evan M echam ’s life these days. His w orst fears and most insane suspicions are a ll true. They really are out to get him .’ w h ere an u gly-tem p ered crow d had gathered in the m ain hearing room in the House of Representatives building to watch the im peachment hearings. They had already hung Mecham sometime around 8 that morning, but the body w as still twitching when w e got there around noon. Some of the governor’s people had posted them selves outside the m ain door, handing out leaflets and crude cartoons about cowards, communists and sodomites. The governor had been arraigned earlier that day on six felony charges. He pleaded “ not guilty.” A fter being photographed, fingerprinted and treated like a common crim inal, be w as quickly led w it of the courthouse and whisked aw ay lin his limousine. When I w a it down to the state Capitol building on Washington Street last week, the atmosphere w as edgy and mean, but there w as nothing uncertain about it. I have covered enough of these things from Nixon and the fiendish Wilbut M ills to Oliver North and Judge Bork to have a pretty good sense of the crowd and the governing mood, as it w ere, no m atter w ho’s on t r ia l.. . And there w as no m istaking the mood of h ard ball finality in the Capitol. The witnesses celled to testify under oath against the governor on felony obstructionof-justice charges spoke with the confident clarity of men who had no fear. They have beat cowed long enough by the threat of Mecham ’s cheapjack vengence, but now he w as on the ru n .. . When he accused his enemies of bugging his office with laser beam listening devices, the response among political staffers w as to w alk through the halls w earing tinfoil skull-caps and joking about “ warding o ff laser beam s.” It w as like the time Jim m y Carter was attacked in his rowboat by a huge rabbit that cam e out of the w ater and went for his throat like a shark. That incident marked the end of Carter’s effectiveness in the White House, and the laser joke w as a death blow for Mecham. * * * The only problem now is how to make him disappear without heaping more scum and ridicule on Arizona’s im age. Even local Dem ocrats are concerned because what Mecham might do to the hopes and d r e a m s of the state’s first alleged presidential candidate since B arry Goldwater — former Dem o Gov. Bruce Babbitt, who is getting a free ride on the tum brel these days, maybe all the w ay to N ew Hampshire. But Mecham w ill not go aw ay. He is like one of those big pack rats who w ill move into your house and decide to stay forever; he w ill build a palatial nest som ewhere deep in the w alls and spend the rest of his life stealing Bhat chains and gold Rolexes and anything else that g litte rs.. . They have expensive tastes, and the only w ay to get rid of a pack rat is to lure it into the open which is alm ost impossible — and blow its head o ff with a .22 Magnum or a .410 rat gun. But you don’t want to m iss or slightly wound the beast or even poison him because then he w ill slink back into thew alls and die, leaving you with a pile of death and disease and stinking black meat that w ill eventually poison the whole house. Welcom e to Phoenix: This is Mecham country. ---- -RITTER letters Dec. 11th,198Q,, G o o d b y e Jim m y Editor: On Jan 16, Jim m y “ The Greek” Snyder, a 12-year sports commentator, opened his mouth in an interview and the sky fell on him . A fte r m aking som e derogatory rem arks about blacks, he w as fired by CBS Sports. Snyder said that black athletes w ere superior to whites because during the Civil W ar, “ the slave owner would breed his big black with his big wom an so that he would get a big black kid.” He also said that m anagement is the only area of sports that whites dominate. He im plied that whites would lose their stronghold on sports. These hasty rem arks have cost him his career. But who can blam e him? He speaks the truth doesn’t he? Wrong. His conclusion is based on completely false and unsubstantiated facts. But what troubles me the most is that the prem ises for his statements seems so logical. Many blacks, as w ell as whites, have subscribed to this belief. At first glance, it m ay appear true that select mating is the cause of black dominance in the “ lim elight” sports like football, basketball and track. A m ajority of blacks are on the low er economical w age bracket, and these are the most inexpensive sports. You tend to rule your own domain. F or exam ple, im agine a financially disadvantaged black, who has attended inferior schools and deals with the traum a of a ghetto. This child w ill seek out football at an early age, playing every day with the utmost concentration. His role models are Jim Brqwn and W arren Moon, so he plays football — not because he envisions venturing from the ghetto, that would come later with age — but because the child would do what comes easiest to him. That is playing football, fo r it is human nature to use “ Occam ’s R azor” to the shortest and easiest goals. F o r this reason, and this reason alone, have blacks evolved in the “ m edia-hyped” sp o ts. To explain why a progressive civilization like this would have such Neanderthal ideas is sim ply to point to pure ignorance. I am not saying this to attack one person or group, because to be ignorant of the facts is easy when you don’t care enough to logically base beliefs on caicrete facts. The law w ill concur: Ignorance is no excuse. Jim m y “ The Greek” should have been fired for having been ignorant and eliciting his own racial biases on national television. A responsible journalist should not be able to speak, influence or manifest claim s of ignorance and racial degradation to an im pressionable public. The fact is that blacks m erely want a chance to a ll the wealth m axim izing tools that the AngloAm ericans enjoy. Most would concur that blacks have endured enough prejudices and should be allowed to thrive in any chosen field. Anyone who would hold one’s race in contempt for any reason should take a deeper look at him self.

The audience cheered when Glenn Super ( “ M r. Bullhorn” ) opened the show, but the feeling throughout w as excited anticipation of the outrageous George Carlin. That anticipation w as w ell rewarded. Carlin opened his show by focusing on “ people I can do W ITH O U T.” He rattled off a list of generic brands such as “ any man who mentions Jesus more than 300 times in a two minute conversation,” and quickly had the audience laughing at their own personal experiences. Carlin held the crowd captive from the moment he appeared. His mere presence on the stage was enough to fill the theater with excitem en t. In stan tly his a b ility to transform the mundane into the hilarious concerts turned a room full of adults typically consumed with everyday routine into a room full of giddy children completely at his m ercy. His deliriously funny perspectives never failed to keep the crowd in tears, laughing at themselves and things they had experienced but had never before seen as quite so funny. And that ability to make the common, not to mention the em barrassing, appear funny is the true secret of his appeal. Is there anyone w ho h asn ’t experien ced the uncomfortable feeling of creeping B V D ’s? It’s that ability to poke fun at everyday occurrences that has made Carlin a standup hit, back from the the days when he am used college campuses with stoned analogies to his current more middle-aged, and even political, hazing. He hasn’t gotten softer, but only older, and wiser. And more observant. Who else could m ake driving a car sound so incredibly crazy but Carlin, with a face sc re a m in g p a ra n o ia , d e sc rib in g the George Carlin “ automotive harrassm ent squad” that waits for him to hit the road. “ OK, he’s pulling out of the drive w ay now, everyone in position!” He touched on everyone’s fantasy when he imagined saying to the cop who pulls him over “ Hey, don’t I pay your salary? Y ou’re a public servant, get me & glass of w ater.” F or close to two hours, Carlin never let his audience relax, but kept them laughing until bellies ached and delirium prevailed. He stayed loosely with tradition and satisfied his devoted fans with parodies on dogs and cats and actually m anaged to introduce new and more outrageous words to his famous “ dirty w ords list.” George Carlin w as at his shocking best and left his audience satisfied as they poured out of the theater feeling “ high” and refreshed. Fans who missed the show Friday night w ill surely hear echos of it for days to come. Rural Rd.

In fact, there’s not a fish to be seen in M iram ax Film s’ latest release, “ I ’ve H eard the M erm aids Singing” . There are, however, some slim y octopus guts, which the klutzy protagonist sends flying across a Japanese restaurant. But no m ermaids. W hat this movie does have is one Polly V a n d e rsm a (S h e ila M c C a rth y ), an “ organizationally im paired” tem porary w ork er who lives alone in a sm all bachelorette apartment, which is in a constant state of disarray. There are characteristic crum bs of food on P olly’s furniture — and face — at all times, usually p.m . M ondays. Turn to Spot«, page 12. etc . . . caused by some omnipresent saltines (Polly w anna cracker?). H er w ardrobe m akes her look a s though K -M art threw up on her. Her electric-red tousled hair is scream ing for a keg of shampoo. A ll in all, Polly is a sweet, fem ale version of “ The Odd Couple’s ” Oscar. Enter Felix. Polly gets a temporary job at an art gallery, and is immediately taken with her new boss, Gabrielle St. Peres (P au le B aillargeon), who is often refered to sim ply as ‘the Curator’. The Curator is the epitom e of sophistication; her entire lifestyle is comprised of nothing but the best. Polly is intrigued and infatuated with G abrielle, awed by everything from her fashionable style of dress to her insightful analyses of art. This attraction is furthered when Polly discovers that G abrielle is involved in a lesbian affair with a much younger woman, M ary Joseph (Ann-M arie M acdonald). After a few weeks of working together, the Curator, who has grown fond of P olly’s “ I’v e H e ard the M e rm a id s S in g in g ” ★ “ W e had problem s with this movie, but tonight I think w e did it right.” ★ ★ (out of four) X Mirimax Film s presents a Patricia Rozema picture, starring Sheila McCarthy, Paule Baillargeon, and Ann-Marie McDonald. Pro­ duced by Patricia Rozema and Alexandra Raffe. Screenplay by Patricia Rozema. — U2 lead singer Bono, following the band’s last show in Tempe’s Sun Devil Stadium last Decem ber, which was film ed for a spring-release concert movie. Rated A A (all audiences) P olly (Sheila M cCarthy) has superhum an dream s in the m ovie “ I’ve Heard the Mer­ m aids S in gin g.” quirky ways, offers her a permanent position. This; proposal is m ade in the aforem entipnedf jap an ese restaurant. At this point, the octopus takes flight, landing with a graphic g litch ! on the floor. With that, Polly cheerily accepts. The women’s friendship strengthens, and one night, while in a slightly drunken state, G abrielle confides in Polly that it is her dream to create something beautiful that would last forever. She dismisses her own paintings as ‘simple-minded’, but is still obsessed with the desire for talent. Polly convinces G abrielle to show her the paintings. What she sees takes her breath away. N ever at a loss for words, she exclaim s, “ It’s so. . .it’s s o .. .nice!” She sneaks one home, and then into the gallery, where a critic sees it and writes a rave review about it. This brings G abrielle the praise and adulation she had alw ays wanted — but for some reason, she doesn’t seem as happy as she should be. The m ystery is eventually revealed to Polly, and her idol is inevitably knocked off her pedestal. So where do the m erm aids fit in ? Before she met the Curator, Polly, who often indulges in vivid daydream ing (the depictions of which are the most worthwhile parts of the m ovie), relates the beautiful voices of m erm aids to the contentedness of her life. She loses this feeling under the Curator’s influence, then regains it, along with her own identity, after seeing G abrielle for what she really is. In a time of overdone themes, overt sex and stale predictability in the cinema, “ I ’ve H eard the M erm aids Singing” is fresh, new, and eccentrically humorous. Elat your heart out, Hannah. M cCarthy’s got the corner on the fish market. ,S V r5 il8 lvii4 ia B # 5 '5 5 B 'i$ 8 4 S llliil8 !$ i$ 6 $ '.i.* . 3 ! ^ s 0 S N E A u m E ia ? f i^ r to .r T m a x m m t& L <00 MEAN A00DTPETE OF 1H E W ft, WANT$*E> on m z o k #c .

SA N D IE G O (A P ) — Doug W illiam s, Timmy Smith and Ricky Sanders ripped apart the Denver defense with a record 35-point, 356-yard second quarter as the Washington Redskins won the Super Bowl by routing the Denver Broncos 42-10 and shutting down John Elw ay. Washington spotted Denver a 10-0 lead, then cam e from behind for the seventh time in 14 wins this year to give the N F C ,its fourth straight lopsided victory in the N R L ’s championship gam e. It w as the Redskins’ second Super Bowl victory in five years. And it w as an eerie reprise for the Broncos, whose coach, Dan Reeves, said they.w ere haunted by their 39-20 loss to the New York Giants in last year’s gam e, a contest in which they led at halftime then were outgained 200-2 over the next 20 minutes. If that w as a haunting, this one w as a possession. Consider this: •W illiam s, the M V P, w as playing less than 24 hours after root canal on a m olar, and set a Super Bowl record with 340 yards on 18-of-29 passing, 306 in the first half. Only six other quarterbacks have passed for 300 yards in a full Super Bowl.

But then cam e the boom, an offensive noise louder than the noise from the formation of jets that flew over Jack Murphy Stadium at the d ose of the national anthem. It w as equaled by a defense that limited E lw ay to two completions in 15 attempts during that period, sacked him four times and picked off three of his passes. Fifty-three seconds into the second q u a rte r, W illia m s threw an flfo-yard touchdown pass to Sanders. Less than four minutes later, it w as a 27-yarder to G ary Clark, followed by a 58-yard T D run by Smith, his first pro touchdown; a 50-yarder to Sanders and an 8-yarder to Clint Didier. It hardly looked like that at the start. Beginning with the 56-yard touchdown pass from E lw ay to Nattiel on their first p la y from scrim m age, the Broncos befuddled the Redskins in the first quarter with just about everything in their diverse playbook. But the Broncos couldn’t finish off what they started. Sun Devils fight off late rally to down Utah By CHRIS D O RSEY State P ress A slight glim m er of light shone through the dark cloud that has rested above the A SU basketball team Saturday night after defeating Utah, 62-60. The Sun Devils (12-7,5-4 in the Pacific-10) w ere able to muster only their second win in the last six gam es. But the Utes m ade ASU earn the victory as they challenged the Sun Devils until the final horn sounded. “ W e have really pushed them in the last 48 hours and they have responded,” Sun Devil Coach Steve Patterson said. “ Tlie antedote for depression is hard work. You can’t sit back on yoqr heels and cry. You’ve got to buckle down.” It appeared in the early going that ASU had not recovered from its 40-pbint thrashing at the hands of No. 1-ranked Arizona after falling behind to Utah by five points, 13-8, with 13:48 left to play in the first h a lf But E ric Holloway (13 points and 10 rebounds) began to bring A SU back and, with the help of Trent Edw ards off the bench, the Sun Devils regained the lead and never relinquished it. A SU changed defenses to keep the Utes . off-balance and the transition resulted in an 11-0 run by the Sun Devils. “ W e played predom inate man-to-man but threw enough zone in there to keep them off-balance,” Patterson said. “W e showed w e have the ability to bounce > back whether it is a one-point loss or a 40-point loss,” Holloway said. The win w as needed to gain momentum going into two conference gam es this weekend with Stanford and California on the road. Turn to B A SK ETB A LL, page 17.

Lyle wins Phoenix Open in sudden death SCOTTSDALE (A P ) — Scotland’s Sandy Lyle made two bogeys on the 18th hole of the T PC at Scottsdale Sunday. But the first one, on the 72nd hole of regulation play, w as good enough to force a sudden death playoff for the $117,000 first prize in the Phoenix Open G olf Tournament. And the second bogey, on the third hole of that playoff, was enough to beat Fred Couples. “ He kind of gave it to m e there at the end,” Lyle said. Couples said nothing at all. At least, not fo r p u blication . H e fle d the course immediately after the playoff and w as not available for comment. “ He w as a bit unlucky,” Lyle said. “ With the pressure on, he got his right hand over a hit and pulled it.” He did it twice.

S u n D e v ils c o n t in u e u n d e f e a t e d w it h s w e e p By DEAN G YO R G Y State P ress The Sun D evil baseball team continued their winning ways over the weekend, sweeping two gam es from Cal-Riverside and raising its record to 5-0. Steve W illis and Kevin Higgins homered in Saturday’s gam e to lift the Devils to a 4-3 win. On Friday, Linty Ingram pitched a five-hit shutout for his second victory of file young season. Saturday’s gam e provided some anxious moments for the 1,563 fans in attendance. The Highlanders (0-2) got file tying run to third base with two out in the ninth before left-hander Rusty K ilgo cam e in and put out the fire. “ A gam e like today w e get a lot of satisfaction from ,” W illis said, “ because w e had to fight for everything w e got.” Cal-Riverside sent their first hitter of the gam e around to score, but W illis brought file Devils even with his secondinning solo shot to left-center field. W illis also doubled deep to left in the sixth, showing some of the power he posseses. “ They w ere breaking balls,” W illis said. “ I do try to turn on that pitch instead of taking it the other w ay, because you can’t create any pop that w ay.” W illis has hit safely in all five gam es this year. Higgins m ade the score 3-1 on the wings of his second home nm of the year, a momentous blast he sent sailing toward R ural Road. Tim Spehr singled through a drawn-in infield in the sixth to produce the fourth D evil run of the game. A SU starter Kurt Dem pster (2-0) had control trouble early, but eventually found his rhythm and looked strong. He pitched seven innings, giving up four hits and walking four. With F riday’s shutout, Linty Ingram (2-0) has now pitched 18 innings without yielding an earned run. “ E very time Linty goes out, no m atter who w e’re playing against, he has the potential to throw a shutout.” W illis said. “ H e’ll be an All-Am erican this year.” Ingram breezed through the innings, facing 31 men, just four more than the minimum 27. “ Some gam es ifyou ’re not going real smooth you just try to get through the nine innings,” Ingram said. “ But today I w as A S U 's Steve W illis awaits the throw on a pickoff attempt during Saturday’s 4-3 victory over Cal-Riverside.

B urrola’s injured back took him out of left field this weekend. Coach Jim Brock made him the designated hitter, a spot where he feels “ very com fortable.” But the m ove did require some mental adjustment. “ You have to stay a little more involved on the bench,” Burrola said. “ Out there in the gam e, you’re into every pitch.
