Costello gives Bulldogs a muddy miracle

LONG BEACH — Should the CSUF
football team ever lose quarterback
Kevin Sweeney to injury, they need not
fear — Rocky Costello is ready, willing
and able.
After Saturday's shocking 7-3 win
over CSU, Long Beach at a local swamp
known as Veterans Stadium. Costello.
u ho also works as a placekicker for the
Bulldogs, had put together some glittering passing statistics.
A look at Costello's career collegiate
passing statistics reads like this: One
attempt, one completion, 39 yards, and
one highly improbable touchdown.
With just over five minutes left and
the Bulldogs trailing the Niners by three
points in a steady downpour. Costello
lined up for what would have been his
school record 16th field goal of the
season. And then the elements took
over Darryl Laramie's snap from center
bounced into a swamp of mud directly
in front of holder Rip Fril/er. and the
senior split end picked up the ball with
his mind apparently set on running.
After realizing how difficult that might
be. Krit/er flung the ball in the general
direction of Costello. who calmly rolled
right and heaved a perfect spiral to
Mark Bebout. who was all alone at the
Niners' 10-yard line When Bebout slid
into the end/one. the Bulldogs were well
on their way to a 5-5 record. 2-4 in the
Pacific Coast Athletic Association The
loss dropped the Niners' mark to 6-4.
1-3 in the PCAA
Thanks lo a heavy rain that never let
up all afternoon, a battle between the
top two passing teams in the PCAA
never materialized. Instead, quarterbacks
Kevin Sweeney and Todd Dillon suffered
through long afternoons that saw their
passing statistics butchered and their
punters kept busy. Sweeney finished
with just six completitions in 30 attempts, good for 80 yards. Dillon fared
a bit better, completing 13 of 29 for 123
yards. Neither passer was as busy as
Bulldog punter Mike Mancini, who
booted 13 punts in the afternoon mud-
bath.
While the 49ers and the Bulldogs
were busy playing for pride, two other
teams took huge steps toward a berth in
the December 17 Cai Bowl at Bulldog
Stadium.
In Fullerton, the CSU, Fullerton
Titans saw their Cai Bowl hopes suffer a
major blowas their downslide continued
University Nevada-Las Vegas Rebels.
The loss was the third straight for the
Titans, who dropped to 7-3, 4-1 in the
PCAA. the win gives the Rebels, 7-3.
4-1, the inside track to the Cai Bowl.
Should the Rebels defeat Long Beach at
home next week, they will be the new
PCAA champs. If the Rebels lose ortie.
the Titans will be the PCAA's Cai Bowl
representative.
Northern Illinois University put itself
in the Mid-American Conference driver's
seat with a 26-10 victory over previously
unbeaten Toledo University in Dekalb,
III. The Huskies are now 8-2, 7-1 in the
MAC, and can clinch a Cai Bowl berth
with a.win over Ohio University next
week in Dekalb. Should the Huskies
lose, the Rockets, 9-1, and 7-1 in t|ie
MAC could represent the conference in
the Cai Bowl.

Mello predicted a larger intervention
into El Salvador or Nicaragua.
"We're not sure which," she said. "I
think the main motivation is national
security. The ecomonic interests in El
Salvador arc practically nil to justify
what the U.S. is doing in El Salvador.
"They view the Central American
regions as strategic because of its placement geographically to the U.S. So we

they are trying to establish in El Salvador will threaten that national security."

Organized opposition to the demonstration, numbering approximately 8Q

across Wilshire Boulevard at the final

The police managed to keep control
over the crowd. Demonstration monitor Dave Brown thought the behavior of
the protestors was "excellent." He was.
however, disturbed by one incident where
the police, on horseback, surrounded
the march from both sides.
"I don't appreciate the police keeping
us in one little lane in the middle." he
said. "It was was very difficult with the
number of people we have. I think they
were looking for us to react, but we jusl
didn'l take the bait and kept our discipline. It could have caused a problem."
Actor David Clennan. who appeared
in the movie "Missing." introduced the
guest speakers at McArthur Park, in
addition to addressing the crowd himself.
"We're way ahead of where we were

Clennan said that at that very moment
there was a "position paper"circulating
around the State Department, examining the feasibility of an invasion of
Nicaragua.
"There .are two questions that the
paper asks." Clennan said. "What will

"in their opinions, invasion was inevitable."
"But." Kaku said, "if the U.S. ever
invades, there will be a groundswell like
no one has ever seen before in the U.S.
And we are part of that groundswell at
this very moment." The crowd roared.
Kaku told the crowd that his relatives
were killed at Hiroshima, and that the
people who invaded Grenada were the

that when he visited the leadership of
Grenada, before the invasions, they told
him "all reactionaries are cowards, "and
that they anticipated the invasion.
"But they told me. 'You go back to
America, and you tell the people that
you can kill revolutionaries, but you
