w^-^pff— 0 Oct. 11, 1983 I Letters" Nigeria Semester? Editor. The Collegian: As concerned CSU F students, we feel AS President Andrea Hedgley's pro¬ posed veto of allocation of funds for the London Semester program shows a gross misjudement of the needs and concerns of CSUF students. This program offers CSUF students the opportunity to pursue their educa¬ tion abroad for one semester at a price they would not otherwise be able to afford Ms Hedgley obviously does not appreciate the unique educational expe¬ rience this program offer the many stu¬ dents who have responded. Instead, she has allocated $650 to the Nigerian Stu¬ dent Association for its independence celebration. Weencourage CSU Fstudents to respond to Ms. Hedgley's irresposible attitude and misguided priorities by urging their AS representatives to override Ms. Hedgley's veto,today. We wonder if Ms. Hedgley would have hesitated to allocate funds to this program had it been the "Nigeria Charles C. Kitts Duncan P.

Bulldog coach Jim Sweeney, always one to tell it like it is, was quoted as stating. "If we lose to San Jose, we wont be playing in the Cal Bowl, well be watching it on television." Well, find a comfortable seat guys, and pass the popcorn, because the San Jose State Spartans have done the Bul¬ ldogs the courtesy of warming up the television sets. While it still might be a bit early to declare the Bulldogs' Pacific Coast Athletic Association title chances as legally dead, the fact remains that we have a comatose patient on our hands. Saturday's 41-23 loss to the Spartans left the defending PCAA champs reel- ingwitha I-2 conference mark — or one As San Jose coach Jack Elway noted, "A team with two losses might still have chance, but 1 doubt it seriously." As it stands now, CSU. Fullerton. Long Beach State University and San Jose all have perfect PCAA marks, and Utah Stale University has only one loss on its slate, not to.mention a victory over the 'Dogs'. If Don Meredith were in town, we all know what song he would be singittg. There arc numerous reasons why the Bulldogs, a 2-3 team that never found themselves below the .500 mark last sea¬ son, now find themselves in this predic¬ ament. Here are a few: I. The San Jose State Spartans. Long Beach may have been the preseason favorite, but the fact is that Fresno was beaten by a sound, talented team that is probably the best in the conference.

Dakota Cag 222-6828 for cWtafe The Spartans offense utilizes more variations than the Dallas Cowboys on a g'oodday, and they have the presonnel to pull it off. A shovel pass here, a shot¬ gun formation there, and before you know it, the scoreboard operator has a headache. So does Jim Sweeney. The next two weekends should tell for the Spartans, when they host Fullerton and then travel to Long Beach. By the time this adventure is over, the Cal Bowl picture should be clear, and the Spar¬ tans should be sitting pretty. 2. The Bulldogs arc good, but they're also equally inexperienced. Like Mae West, when the 'Dogs arc good, they're real good. But when they're bad..." Brilliant runs are followed by careless fumbles, steady line play is followed by a breakdown that leads to yet another gainful Kevin Sweeney sack. A picture- perfect Sweeney spiral is followed by a panic-stricken heave into the enemy secondary. If coach Sweeney didn't have gray hair, he would have it by now. This year's Bulldogs could keep Grecian Formula in business by themselves. 3. The Bulldogs' rushing attack, or what there is of it. This might be the era of the pass, but a team still has to pro¬ duce some kind of rushing offense to win. Just ask last year's San Francisco 49ers. If you want a quick glance at the 'Dogs' rushing statistics against the Spartans, you better sit down. Ready? Brace yourselves now. 21 attempts for 26 yards. That sound you hear is Vince Lombardi rolling over in his grave. After, the beating the Bulldogs took. Sweeney is left with the prospect of looking forward to next year, and to playing the role of a spoiler this year. "We're not only looking forward lo next year, but we would like to salvage a winning season from this season and build for next year." said a seemingly relieved Sweeney. "We've got eight star¬ ters back next year, so things look alright." The future does look bright, just as it did for a certain 1981 team that, after a dismal start, won four of its last five games. They also happened to win a conference title the next season. Ihe similarities between the two teams arc striking, except that this year's Bulldog team probably has more raw talent than the previous one. The Bulldogs will go as far as Kevin Sweeney takes them. Sweeney is per¬ haps the Dogs' most talented quarter¬ back ever, but it is rather difficult to pass with three lineman constantly breathing down your face. Jack Elway knows that — his son is going through the same thing. "The kid is taking some shots now." said Elway. "But hell be all right." Coach Sweeney knows it too. but he knows there are other problems. "Kevin has thrown some balls that he could be criticized foresaid Sweeney. "He'sgot to learn that you can't complete them all." As a team, the 1983 Bulldogs have plenty to learn, and the rest of the sea¬ son should provide quite a classroom. Aflcrthal.a berth in Cal Bowl IV looks like a distinct possibility. Spikers travel today The Bulldog volleyball team, 5-7 over¬ all and 0-2 in Northern Pacific Athletic Conference games, will face 12th-rahkcd Cal Poly San Luis Obispo at 7:30 p.m. tonight in Cal Poly's main gym. This week is important for Coach Lei- lani Overstreet's team, as it will also face NorPac opponents Oregon and Oregon State in away games on Friday and Saturday. Get the easiest cash on campus!
