Phyllis Oakley addressed the effects of the migration of refu- gees on US foreign policy in the Olin Center yesterday.

Foreign policy and refugees discussed

b y L A U R A u l ” ” E Daily Staff Writer

Issues of migration and refu- gees are essential in determining foreign policy, according to an alumnus who spoke at Olin yester- day morning.

TheFletcher School ofLaw and Diplomacy alumnus Phyllis Elliot Oakley gave a lecture entitled “Worldwide Migration and Refu- gee Issues,” which was part ofthe Charles Grant Adams Lecture Se- ries.

Oakley discussed how migra- tion and refugee issues have changed over recent decades. She said that such issues have only recently become important com- ponents of foreign policy, noting that it is now almost impossible to cite a foreign policy situation that lacks a humanitarian component.

In 195 1, she explained that the first UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) was ap- pointed to grapple with refugee problems leftover from World War 11. Although the position was originally expected to be tempo- rary, she said since then the office has not only remained in exist- ence, but its responsibilities have increased.

According to Oakley, the U ” C R currently plays a role in assisting more than 22.7 million people in over 1 IO countries around the world. Its budget for lastyearwas$1.2 billion,shesaid.

Oakley cited Rwanda as an example ofa foreign policy situa- tion closely related to refugee is- sues. She called the recent events in Rwanda “the fastest, largest refugee outflow in the history of mankind.” In the spring and sum- mer of 1994, she said, more than two million rehgees fledthat coun- try, pouring into Tanzaniaand east- em Zaire.

Refugee and relief programs which had been set up after World War I1 were inadequate in dealing with aproblem ofsuch magnitude, Oakley said. She added that these programs had been set up to serve individuals, rather than huge mi- grations of people fleeing col- lapsed states.

As a result of this and other similar situations, Oakley said, the UNHCRhasgradually shifted fi-om its original protection mandate to amandate for emergency response and maintenance.

In fulfilling this role, she con- tinued, the U ” C R works closely with many other organizations, including the World Food Program, UNICEF, the International Office of Migration, and the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance.

According to Oakley, much of the money needed for these inter- national organizations is supplied by the United States. The Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Mi- gration, where Oakley works, is a primary source of funding for the U ” C R and many of the other organizations. She said the Bu- reau has the largest operating budget in the State Department which “shows the depth of sup- port on the Hill for humanitarian programs.”

Detailing many of the events during the 1950s to the 1 980s, she said the principles of international law were generally maintained. According to Oakley, the most important ofthese laws is the prin- cipleoffirst asylum. This concept claims that countries have an ob- ligation to receive and protect refu- gees, she said.

Oakley said that another inte- gral component is the principle see PANEL, page 2

Violence targeted against Asian Americans persists across

iscussion is part of Asian American Month by DAVID PLuvIosE

. Senior Staff Writer Most people are not aware that

a great deal of violence occurs against Asian Americans as well as other minorities, said junior Young Paik, one of three panel members who spoke at a presenta- tion entitled “Violence Against Asian Americans” yesterday morning.

According to the panelists, the focus of yesterday’s workshop was to raise awareness of the fact that all types of violence occur against Asian Americans. This workshop correlates with Tufts’ celebration of Asian American Awareness Month. The national Asian Awareness Month falls in May, but Paik said the University celebrates it in November due to the summer recess.

“Violence plays out against all minorities. Itisnotjustablackand white issue,” Paik said. He added that the-purpose of the panel was to bring attention to the fact that Asian Americans have to deal with the same verbal, physical, and emotional abuse that many other minorities deal with.

Paik, an intern at Boston’s Asian American Resource Work- shop, is also a member of Tufts’ Peace & Justice StudentRaculty Board. In his presentation, Paik spoke ofhis youth, explaining that he grew up as a second-genera- tion Korean American in San Fran- cisco.

In San Francisco, Paik said he did not have to deal with some of the racial violence that his parents encountered. He added, however,

that his parents were treated with disrespect on a constant basis because they had Korean accents.

Paik said the main racial prob- lem he encountered in San Fran- cisco was inter-ethnic hostility between African Americans and Korean Americans.

Because the San Francisco area has amuch 1argerAsian American population than most American cities, Paik said he enjoyed much more support there than he did in other cities. While attending high school in Exeter,”, Paik said he encountered many instances of verbal abuse by many ofthe town’s residents. He added, however, that the students in his high school were generally supportive.

Tracey Tsugawa, executive di- rector of Boston’s Asian Ameri- can Resource Workshop, echoed the sentiments of the other panel- ists saying Asian American vio- lence is alive and well in the United States. Tsugawa related one story about a Chinese man who was killed because his murderers thought he was Japanese, and therefore responsible for stealing theirjobs. She saidmanyattackers of Asian Americans either get off free or serve little time for their crimes.

Assistant Dean of Arts and Sciences Jean Wu, the thirdmem- ber ofthe panel, explained that she spends a significant amount of time in her Asian American stud- ies courses addressing the issue of violence against Asian Ameri- cans.

“The historical piece is impor- tant in understanding contempo-

.

rary social issues that we are deal- ing with,” Wu said. Wu not only reviewed the particular historical roots ofanti-Asian American sen- timent, but also addressed what she termed the “invisibility” of any sort of dialogue discussing Asian American issues.

To illustrate her point aboutthe lack ofdialogue concerning Asian Americans, Wu asked all of the faculty and students in the room to tell of the number of instances that they had seen an Asian Ameri- can issue being represented in ei- ther a movie or a class. Approxi- mately halfofthe audience, which was comprised of mostly Asian Americans, had been exposed to dialogue discussing Asian Ameri- cans.

The presentation was spon- sored by Tufts’ Peace and Justice Studies program, directed by Dale BlVan.

Apple donates its history to Stanford

University Los Angeles Times-Washington

Post News Service PAL0 ALTO, Calif. -Stanford

University said Tuesday it ac- quired thousands of pieces of memorabilia and artifacts that chroniclethe unique2 I-year his- tory of Apple Computer, Inc.

Henry Lowood, library cura- tor for the history of science and technology collection at Stanford, said Apple made a gift to the university of its museum and his- torical collections, which filled about 2,000 boxes.

The donation, which com- prises documents, hardware, soft- ware and other items, portrays the culture and history of the iconoclastic company that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak started in agarage in 1976.

Lowood said that although he had only looked at about one percent of the collection, the na- tureofthe items ranged from rare to quirky to cheeky.

He said an Apple I computer and prototypes for several other computers that never made it to the production line were among

the more uncommon items. “It’: really a longitudinal picture o Apple from its lifetime,”Lowooc said. “From what I’ve leamec through my contacts at Apple they were very interested in do. ing something with this collec. tion because it just seemed likc the stuff was in danger from sit. ting around in storage.”

The collection, which has beer managed by Apple staff member5 since the mid- 1 9 8 0 ~ ~ was intendeo for an Apple museum that was never built.

Low ood and his colleagues w i 11 spend the next 12 months sifting through the collection and draw- ing up a detailed inventory tc facilitate future research. . Stanford said the donation wa a significant addition to its col lections on the technological an( business history of Silicon Val ley.

Stanford already posesses thc papersof William Shockley, whc helped invent the transistor, anc Russell and Sigurd Varian, earlj pioneers in the semiconductor in dustry.

Letters to the Editor Back page a joke To the Editor:

Since one of the great comic stips of all time, “Calvin and Hobbes,” was retired from comic strips across the country, I feel that the back page of the Daily has not been the same. “Calvin and Hobbes” was that ray of sunshine on a Monday morning, that littlepick-me-upaftera long exam. People would hang them on their doors, show them to friends before class, even joke about the classics over a couple of cold ones. Immediately after the end of “Calvin and Hobbes,” people attempted to fill the void. “Dilbert” had potential, but let’s face it, there isnocomparison. I mean, we get the idea. Dilbert’s boss is amoron. It is for these reasons that I would like to request some new comics on the back page. I know that there are still some “Dilbert” fans out there, and “Doonesbury” is considered a classic, so you can keep those. Instead ofthe other cartoons, though, I would like to see the all new “Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist” comic strip, which is modeledafterthe popular Com- edy Central TV show. Also, I think that good old Gartield would be anice addition. We all remember Saturday morning cartoons with Garfield-he’s the best! Imean, you never get sick of seeing Garfield kick Odie off of the table. It’s hilarious! What will that crazy cat think of next? You just never know.

In all seriousness, I do believe that the comic strip has gone downhill since the end of “Calvin and Hobbes,” and I think it’s time to spice it up a little. I look forward to opening the Daily to some new comics in the near future.

Tickets are not fine .

To the Editor: I am writing to express my concern over the

parking situation on campus and the role ofthe Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) in general. On Wednesay morning, Ireceiveda$65 ticket for parking in the driveway next to Stratton Hall. This ticket is obnoxious not only because of the ridiculous fine it imposes, but because there was no clearly posted sign regarding parking regulations anywhere in the area where I received the ticket.

Given the lack of parking on the Tufts campus, TUPD could try to be more accomodating. The fines levied with tickets are absolutely ridiculous and need to be lowered. Also, as most of us with cars realize, the ratio of faculty parking spaces to student spaces is outrageous. I always wondered about the rationale of having faculty members, who spend the majority of their time at Tufts in the daylight, park right on Professors Row, and having students walk home from Cousens in the middle of the night. And I don’t think anybody understands why exactly it is that nobody is supposed to park in those faculty spaces between 1 a.m. and 8 a.m. .

Finally, I cannot help but notice that while TUPD cannot seem to find the time to ensure safety on campus, they seem to have plenty of time to write parking tickets. Maybe if TUPD spent more time securing the safety of this campus and less time writing tickets, then actions such as the proposed social policy change would not be necessry to help ensure the safety of Tufts students.

that states should not send people back against their Will.

“People have a right to remain where they live,” Oakley said.

Oakley questioned the role of the international community in Bosnia, where civilians were being forced to leave their homes as part of the ethnic cleansing. Refugee organizations had two options, she said. If they chose to help evacuate civilians, they would be abandoning one of their major prin- ciples, as ‘well as helping the Serbian soldiers to achieve their war goals. If the organizations did not

- gating a violent fleeing of civilians, she said.

She added that the calamity would most likely lead to death and family separation.

Oakley said that complex dilemmas, such as those in Bosnia, illustrate situations in which the interna- tional reliefcommunity is faced with conflicting moral principles. While acknowledging the difficulty .of such situations, she said that the guiding principles must remain those of first asylum, voluntary and safe re-patriation, and re-settlement only when necessary.

A 1957 graduate ofFletcher, Oakley is currently the Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration in the State Department. She also served as the deputy spokesman for the

Daily comic relief on TUTV’s schedule

by MELISSA BRODER Daily Staff Writer

Last year ameningitis outbreak occurred in the town of Woonsocket, R.I., and the suburb

Woonsocket TUTV, Channel 43 8 p.m. and 12 p.m.

was suddenly thrown into the spot- light. Soon after, as if in a parallel universe, Woonsocket, TUTV’s first televised comedy show in 20 years, was conceived. It was fate.

When asked about a particular goal for the sitcom, actor Chris Christoudias remarked, “TO give people a hernia.”

Apparently, the hopes of the other actors are just as high.

“I’m just glad they gave a blind kid a chance,” said thespian Jason Shuchman, referring to Woonsocket ’s equal opportunity efforts as one ofthe reasons for the show’s cultlike appeal on campus.

“I’m just doingthisaspart ofmy work release program,”jokedwriter ChrisPape. However, remarks from the station’s programming director Dave Perry, reveal a higher level of

enthusiasm behind the show. Perry spoke of Woonsocket’s

writers, Tim Golden, Dave Linden, and Pape.

“These guys were a dream- come-true last semester. We were just getting started at TUTV and I got a call from them saying that they wanted to do acomedy show. They said that they were ready to ‘start today’ ... they had been ready to start yesterday,” Perry said. L‘We’ve been working for a year now and it took us half a semester to get one show out, but they’ve been creative and professional throughout the whole thing.”

The cast can’t promise much variation, though. Only one epi- sode has been taped so far, but cast and crew feel that even that is a vast improvement over the blank screen that TUTV was onlyashort time ago.

“It was just a pile of boxes and [sturn likethat,”remembered Pape.

In terms of programming, how- ever, the show has been approved assafeandaccessible indaily doses. TUTV’s magic channel number is 43, and Woonsocket is on twice a nightat 8p.m. and againat 12a.m. for those who caq’t get enough.

unteers serve up a meal Shelters have Thanksgiving feasts for those in need

by JASON SALTER Daily Editorial Staff

With the holidays nearing, we generally start thinking about be- ing with families and friends to- gether in celebration. For some homeless or elderly people, though, this holiday season only brings back feelings of loneliness and sadness. Nearby shelters, however, offerthese peoplewith a meal and company at the same time as reminding us of the true meaning of this holiday, giving thanks.

For many people, Thanksgiv- ing is not only a time to be spent with family and friends, but it is also a time to reach out to the communities we live in, andgivea littleofourtime to helpingothers. In the MedfordlSomerville area, there are numerous shelters that offer traditional Thanksgiving meals for anyone who has no- where and nobody to spend the holidays with.

This daunting task of prepar- ing, distributing and, serving hun- dreds of needy people doesn’t happen without the help of many volunteers who give up a part of their day to lend a hand.

The largest Thanksgiving day project in the area will be at the Lincoln Park Community School, where close to 200 people are ex- pected to show up for a free feast with “all the fixin’s.”

“We need people for every- thing,” said Lee Davidchick, the congregate coordinator ofthe Lin- coln Park Community School project (628-2601). “We need people to deliver meals, assist the elderly, chop everything, put to- gether baskets. There’s never a shortage of things to do.”

On top of the 200 expected to show up at the school, Davidchick said that close to 400 meals are being prepared and distributed to the home-bound elderly. The meal is sponsored by the Somerville/ Cambridge Elder Services and Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare.

“This agency cares about people. Forpeople whodon’t have a family, this provides them with one. They deserve to have iust as

know our volunteers before Thanksgiving, so that it feels more like afamily. We welcome people to start volunteering now for Christmas, though,” said Angie Brenner, volunteer coordinator at Shelter Inc. in Cambridge (547- 1885).

“We hear a lot of bad about people, but there are a lot of good people out there that may not be as well off. but still they deserve to

’ enjoy these holi- 7 days,” said Davidchick.“Wedo this because we

J pliers. At most shelters, the food is prepared by a cook who returns every year to do this feast.

“In some ways, it’s a way of giving thanks for what you have. We can say it, but this really puts it into action. It feels good to help people,” said Linda Wood-Boyle, executive director ofthe Somerville HomelessCoalition(623-6111).

At the Adult Shelter of the SHC, Sharon Ryan (623-2546), director of the shelter, says that their operation is only asmall one with only eight or so guests and only five volunteers. Ryan says that many shelters have an abun- dance of volunteers during the holidays, but need more during the off-times.

“We are a pretty small group, and we like to have our guests

I numbers of vo< unteers at this

time, but stillmore is needed.

“We never have enough tur- keys, or socks, or toys, or hats, or coats. I have flocks of people com- ing in for help. Sometimes thecom- munity is very giving, but other times, there are other pressing is- sues,lguess.Formethisismyjob, 1 love it,” said Ellcock. “People have good intentions in their hearts and they help out, we’re grateful for that.”

Whether you are staying in the Medford/Somerville area for Thanksgiving or heading home, takesometimeto pickupthe phone and call your local shelter to find out what you can do to give thanks for what you have.

It wasn’t her curvaceous hips. Or her Scarlett O’Hara- esque waist. Or even her unnaturally voluptuous bustline. The only things that bothered me were her feet.

Those tiny little plastic feet were bent up in this perma- nent high-heel position that was extremely aggravating, because I could never getthose itsy-bitsy high-heel pumps

to stay on. Ah, but the handsome Ken, he had these big, wide, “manly” feet that were perfectly flat. Those sensible shoes never fell off.

Poor Barbie, on the other hand, never got to wear shoes in my house.

To my dismay, the Mattel toy company has not yet announced

whether they will bring in theirpodiatry experts toexamine 38-year-old Barbie’s feet before her upcoming surgery. Ear-

lier this week, the company told the world that the shapely Barbie is scheduled for some extensive nips and tucks: a wider waist, slimmer hips, and a smaller bustline. She’s even getting a new face, minus the toothy grin.

Many who felt that the pop icon Barbie doll upheld an unrealistic standard of beautyare hailing Mattel’s decision tomake her look more likeareal woman. And thatherhighly unrealistic 38-1 8-34 figure (according to some estimates) gives girls a negative body ideal from a young age. ‘‘I actually think it’s healthy, because we are surrounded by cultural icons that create unrealistic expectations in adult women ... Barbie’s change is a wholesome step in the right direction,” retired plastic surgeon Sharon Webb told the FostonGfobefI 1/19)

F- I;

FEATURES! I’m a Barbie girl

I don’t know about you, but for me, Barbie was always, well, adoll. When Barbie’s skinny plastic legs popped out of their sockets, I knew she wasn’t real. When my friend Lauren’s bratty, semi-cannibalistic six-year-old neighbor chewed off Barbie’s foot, and Barbie kept up that same cheerygrin, I knew she wasn’treal. I neverdeludedmyself into thinking we little girls were supposed to grow up to have 38-18-34 figures. My mom didn’t look like that. My teenage sisters didn’t look like that. NO women I knew looked like Barbie. She was fun. She was a fantasy.

And she sure did have some nice clothes. I’ve always been a big fan of Barbie. I’m not alone.

According to M.G. Lord, the author ofForever Barbie, the average American girl owns eight Barbie dolls. Eight gals, that is, to “one pathetic, overextended Ken,” she says. That was the case with me, although I think the number far exceededeight. I don’tremernberal1oftheir‘‘offkial”names anymore, but I remember many in the lineup: there was punk-rocker Barbie; bride Barbie; “Day-to-night” Barbie (her outfit converted from a work-suit to evening wear, tres yuppie ’80s); the Barbie that came with an assortment of “fashion wigs”; .the Barbie with the funky hair-curler; birthday Barbie; ballerina Barbie; and, my favorite, perma- nently-puckered kissing Barbie, who, at the push of a button on her back, would give Ken a big smooch. I was very upset when Barbie’s “kissing button” stopped work- ing. Looking back on it, I realize perhaps she just didn’t like Ken anymore.

My Ken was a busy fella. He was forced to play the boyfriend, brother, father, husband, “insert male role here” role in every one of my Barbies’ adventures. What a nice guy.

And, oh, those adventures. I could dress her in fancy

clothes and send her on a romantic date with Ken, give her a bath in my Barbie bubble bath, put her to bed in the Barbie dream house (I didn’t actually have one, but I could pretend). It was a fantasy.

“I mean, they say Barbie is unrealistic. But she’s got a Ferrari, a Malibu dream house, and big plastic boobs. Here in LA, you can’t get more realistic than that,” said late-night TV host Jay Len0 earlier this week.

Don’t get me wrong. I do understand the concern many have with Barbie’s current look. And, although her incred- ibly unrealistic body image did not affect me consciously as a child, there is a good chance it did affect me uncon- sciously. There is no one cause ofthe obsession with body image in this country and the rampant eating disorders young girls and women develop. While I place more ofthe blame on unattainable images of sickly-thin women in advertising, movies, and television for the perpetuation of unrealistic standards of beauty, I must say that, despite my love for the Barbie I grew up with, Mattel is makingthe right move. If it helps one girl to not internalize the ridiculous ideal of big-busted thinness as perfection, it’s worth it.

But, I ’ l l neverforgetmy Barbie. Even Christina Hoff Sommers, the author of a book

entitled Who Stole Feminism told the Globe, “The new Barbie is moreattractive, andshedidneedamakeover. But I didn’t mind the fact the older one reflected earlier ideals of feminine beauty. I liked Barbie as a child. She was glamorous. Andpartofbeingachild is fantasy andplay,not anexerciseinself-esteem”(ll/l9).

In the end, she’s a doll. A fantasy. An un-anatomically correct piece ofplastic with aridiculously extensive ward- robe.

And funny feet.

Now, they’re sending Erica back to live with Dylan in Hawaii. It’s a solution everyone seems to be happy with; Kelly even gets anew position working as an administrator in the foundation’s free clinic out of it!

David foolishly kicks offthe episode by assuming that Donna was the one who paid off his loan. Although David felt stupid, we at least got to laugh at him! David then manages to accidentally set his office at the club on fire. Since the writers used up all oftheircheating, drinking, and drug related storylines, I guess they had to bring back another old favorite -fires. Unfortunately, the club’s landlord finds out about the fire and David gets kicked out.

Somehow, David and Val have become friends again. Val decides to tell David about Noah and Donna. As usual, we know Val is up to no good when she takes it upon herself to find out who paid off David’s debt. Ifthereismoney involved,andalotofit, youknow Val isdefinitelygoing tobe interested. When shefindsout it was her precious Noah, she has the audacity to go to his boat and slap him for lying to her. Excuse my French, but what a bitch. Donna takes the news from Noah a little bit better. She agrees to go out to dinner with him, and even ends up kissing him goodnight.

Steve’s parental fiasco continues. He throws a tem- per tantrum at Jody, he’s not sleeping, and he even has aheart-to-heartwithhis own father aboutthe possibility ofbecoming a father himself. Ofcourse, Steve decides to do the right thing and promises to be a good father, ifthe kidis his. Carly agrees tostickby hisside andeven comes with him to get the DNA test results. The tests show he has a one in five billion chance of being the father.Needless to say, he spazzes atJody fornot telling him about the lover she had right before him.

Meanwhile, David is bitter about Noah moving in so fast on Donna-even though Noah bailed him out from the loan shark. Trying to be afriendly guy, Noah decides that to tell David he will buy back the club for him. David, ofcourse, tells him to keep it and storms out of the room. Noah seems upset that his “money is ruining everything.” I don’t feel bad for him though. If 1 were harboringmillions, I wouldn’t go around buying buildings for people that didn’t even likeme.

Drew Bledsoe and Patriots take a dive byADAMKAMINS Daily Editorial Board

The wildest football week in years saw a winless team conquer the Super Bowl champion. a con-

ference champion looking like its best years were decades ago, a division being won in the middle ofNovember, and for the first time since the 1989 season, a tie.

When the 1997 season is ana- lyzed and dissected, many experts may decide that Nov. 16 was the day when everything changed.

The biggest statement of the week was probably made by the AFCChampionNew England Pa- triots. After apparently righting hissinking shipa weekearlier with a 3 1 - 10 trouncing of the offense- less Buffalo Bills, quarterback Drew Bledsoe made the biggest dive of his young career.

Unfortunately, it came from the stage during an Everclear concert, andresultedinaninjurytoawoman in the crowd. Bledsoe, along with teammates Scott Zolak and Max Lane, was crucified by the Boston media and apparently could not overcome such adversity, having been a local hero for much of his career.

On Sunday, against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he was unable toleadhisteamtoafirstdownuntil the third quarter. Bledsoe man- aged just 1 I7 yards on the after- noon, threw two interceptions, and could not get the Patriots any points.

Bledsoe deservedly took the fall for the game, which left the Patriots in third place in the AFC East, behind both the Miami Dol- phins and New York Jets. An- other aspect ofthe Patriots demise has become painfully clear: they should not have let former coach Bill Parcells get away.

After a honeymoon period that encompassed a 5-1 start, head

coach Pete Carroll has become the target of jeers and taunts previ- ously reserved for the now-hated former coach. When owner Bob Kraft decided to part with Parcells because there was not enough room inFoxborofortheirtwoegos, most people thought that the easy- going Carroll would be the perfect successor. The players could flour- ish without the pressure ofa wrath- ful coach, and everything would be just fine. Players like Bledsoe went out of their way to bash Parcells, and some made it sound as if they had just been released from prison.

But, just as his Jets quit on him after a loss to Miami during his othercoachingstint in 1994, Carroll seems to have lost control of the Patriots. They have lost four of their last five, and it has become apparent that a combination of overachieving as the result of su- perior coaching and good breaks (see the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 30-27 win overtheheavily favored Denver Broncos in the playoffs a year ago), allowed them to win the AFC a year ago. Nobody disputes that Carroll has a great mind for football, especially defense. But having led one team from a prom- ising start to a disastrous finish, and seemingly on his wayto doing it again, Carroll is solidifying his reputation as a fine defensive co- ordinator who amounts to little more than a high-priced cheer- leader coach.

There was plenty of other fall- .out from the week that was. The previously winless Indianapolis Colts shocked the football world by conquering the reigning cham- pions, the Green Bay Packers, 41-38. The Pack still can win a championship, but they appear to becompletely unfocusedattimes.

There have been moments when the Packers have looked in- vincible, like duringtheir Monday Night rout of the Patriots about a monthago. But,unlikeayearago, Green Bay is playing to the level of its opponents. They have been

unable to dispatch of lesser teams with ease, and have only showed flashes of their champi- onship form when playing qual- ity clubs.

The reason for the loss this week is simple: the team did not care. They, in spite ofthe warnings of coach Mike Holmgren, looked ahead to their upcoming show- down with their arch rivals, the Dallas Cowboys. Green Bay just left its heart and desire at Lambeau Field.

The Pack can still make a play- off run, and another champion- ship is not out of the question. If they keep playing down to lesser teams, they will be forced to go on the road during the key playoff games that couldget them back to the big show.

In their opener, when the San Francisco 49ers lost to the Buc- caneers, lost Jerry Rice to an ap- parent season-ending knee injury and Steve Young to yet another concussion, it appeared that this one-time dynasty was dead. With an inexperienced new coach, Steve Mariucci, the loss of the greatest receiver ever, and a great quarter- backmulling retirement, the Niners looked like they might miss the playoffs for the first time since 1991.

All they have done since is win ten games in a row and lock up a playoffberth earlier than any team sincethe 15-1 1985ChicagoBears. They did beat up on weak divi- sional foes, but going 8-0 against any division, whether the ECAC orNFC West, is impressive. They beat the Dallas Cowboys in a ba- rometer game that many people expected them tolose. Andnow, at two games ahead of the next best record in their conference, San Francisco appears on its way to home-field advantage and a pos- sible return to the Super Bowl.

This will be yet another key weekofN.FLgames. The AFCand NFC East divisional races should begin to make a little bit more sense when Sunday is over. To predict a

few of the key games, the much- anticipated Green Bay-Dallas showdown will be won the by Packers, who will have to over- come a rough start, and pull it out late..The Minnesota Vikings will win big in amatchup with the Jets, who arewithout new starting quar- terback Glenn Foley.

I’ll go with the Miami Dol- phins to roll over the Patriots this Sunday, and deliver a major blow to New England’s playoff hopes. And in what is probably the real game of the week, in terms ofdivisional significance, the Washington Redskins should beat the New York Gi- ants, who despite their first-place status, have not beaten a win- , ning team all year.

BRISTOL, Conn. - With as many as 50 millionbelievers across America, itqualifiesasamajorreli- gion, but what the faithful seem to lovemost about ESPN is that it has stayed true to its roots as a cult.

rants, video games and who knows what other ventures. Brand exten- sion is never a zero-risk strategy. For a niche player such as ESPN, one potential danger arises from what might be called the Grouch0 Paradox, basedonthefmousMarx remark “I don’t care to belong to any club that will accept me as a member.”

A sense of exclusivity gives the brand p q of its zest, and how exclusive can it be ifevery toddler atthe mall starts sporting an ESPN golfcap? But partly because ofthe involvement ofDisney - the king of brand extension - experts say the downside is limited. “Unless they were to have a major fiasco that wouldreflect backonthecore property, the risks are primarily financial,” says Stephen A. Greyser, a marketing professor at HarvardBusiness School. In other words, even if the side ventures lose money, there should be little threat to the main broadcasting business. What a business it is. With estimated net advertising revenue of $440 million this year, ESPN is “the most economically successful franchise in the his- tory ofcable TV,” declares analyst Jeff Flathers of Paul Kagan Asso- ciates. Its penetration among young, upscale males is tops in the industry. “They’re an advertiser’s dream, which is one reason why people pay top dollar to be there,” Flathers says.

Disney Chairman (and sports- nut-in-chieQMichael Eisnersaid as much when he called ESPNthe key to his 1996 purchase of its then- parent, Capital CitiedABCInc. Wit) Eisner looking overtheir shoulders, everyone involved in the ESPN brand extension is being carefid to milkthiscash cow gently. “We won’t do anythingwithout quality,”vows ESPN President Steve Bomstein.

On the other hand, the company can’tmovesodelibetatelythat it lets its well-fmanced rivals gain ground. Fox SportsNet, News Cop’s re- gional sports network, already reachesnearly50miliion households and is growing fast. And Sports Illustrated - the main target of the ESPN magazine slated for launch next Mmh- is nipping at its rival’s broadcast heels with its CNN-SI cable sports channel.

Men’s hoops ready to rumble Team hopes for yet another outstanding season

by JORDAN BRENNER and WVEKRAMGOPAL

Daily Editorial Board With time running down in the

men’s basketball team’s season- ending second round NCAA loss

I Men’s Note book

~- ~

last March, then-junior Dave Cunningham drained a three- pointer. Itmeant little in what ended in ablowout 83-63 victory for Sa- lem State, but for those who be- lieve in such things, perhaps it was a sign.

Cunningham’s three capped the most successful season in Tufts history, where they won an NCAA game for the first time and fmished with a20-6overallrecord. It may also have been a sign of things to come. Cunningham re- turns as a senior tri-captain on a team that is poised to make an- other NCAA run this year.

Featuring a lineup that returns three starters, last year’s top three reserves, and a strong recruiting class, coach Bob Sheldon has rea- son for optimism. Sheldon said that his expectations are higher for the team than a year ago.

“We hope to get back to where we weee,” Sheldon said. ‘‘It’s kind of like we’ve had a taste of real success and winning a game in the NCAAs ... so that has become a goal of ours. In the past, it’s just been getting into the post-sea- son, and now we would like to get into the post-season and do some damage.”

Sheldon has the tools to do just that. Seniortri-captain Joe Donroe is the team’s top returnee, after leading the Jumbos in scoring and rebounding a year ago, averaging

14.0 points and 8.4 rebounds per game.

“We want a double-double (double figures in points and re- bounds) from him 24 times,” Sheldon said, referring to the fact that Tufts needs a solid perfor- mance from its starting small for- ward every night to be effective. “We’re not asking him to increase [his performance], we just want him to be more consistent.”

Consistent play from Donroe should help ease the loss of three seniors from last year’s squad. Guard Dan Ragsdale and forward Dave Sullivan were both starters last season, while forward Jon Carroll saw quality minutes off the bench.

“I don’tthinktheirnumbersare going to be missed ... but their per- sonalities and them as people are going to be missed,” Sheldon said. “Rags wasaleader, Sully didall the little things, and JC was very vo- cal, so it’snottheirbasketballthat’s going to be missed, it’s their pres- ence.”

Last season, Tufts upset sev- eral top-ranked teams such as Amherst and UMass-Dartmouth. This year, people know how good Tufts is. “Every team will be ready for us,” Cunningham said of tRat fact. L ‘ N ~ game will be a cupcake for us, but we will be ready for every team too. This will work to our advantage knowing that this will be one ofthe toughest sched- ules in the country.”

Donroe, Cunningham, and tri- captain Brian Skerry, the starting point guard, will all hope to fill the leadership void as senior starters. Sheldon expects his senior backcourt of Skerry and Cunningham to log major minutes this season. “I look at them as kind of like Travaieso and Padilla at

UMass,” Sheldon said, referring to one of Division 1’s top backcourts of the past few sea- sons. “We’regoingtotrytoget40 minutes from them.”

Sheldon does expect to give them some rest, and will look to 6’4“ senior Mark DeBevoise to provide support off the bench. “He’s been playing great,” Sheldon said. “He’ll be our first two-three man off the bench.”

Tufts should be strong on the perimeter, then, as Sheldon called the trio of Skerry, Cunningham, and Donroe “the best 1-2-3 group in New England.” In addition to DeBevoise, Sheldon expects se- nior Jon Mugar and freshman Bobby Mpuku to add depth in the backcourt.

Up front, meanwhile,Tufts will face the difficult task of trying to replace injured junior center Sebastien Saylor. The Jumbos’ sec- ond-leading scorer and rebounder a year ago will miss the first six weeks of the season with a broken hand that he suffered last week. In his absence, Sheldon will rely on several fieshmento fillthe big shoes ofthe 6’8“center. The team is look- ing for Saylor to return for the UMass-Boston game Jan. 15.

“Sebby’slosswill definitely not help our cause,” said Skerry. “The fieshman have to step up, and they definitely have the talent to do that.”

Sheldon referred to the seven first-year players as “probably the best freshman class we’ve had since I’ve been here.” Six-foot, six- inch Tom Bernier is expected to step into the starting lineup to re- place Saylor. Six-foot, seven-inch Dan Flaherty and 6’5“ Fred Pedroletti are also expected to see major minutes up front, and must help pickup the slack on the boards.
