ATTENTION
December 15 is your last day for AMNESTY
StarTel has found the abuse of unauthorized long
distance calls is widespread. Startel does not want to dam
age young people’s lives or burden them with a criminal
record; Therefore StarTel has chosen to offer amnesty
until Dec. 15.
Prior to Dec. 15 all persons that contact the Univer
sity General Counsel (845-4334) or StarTel (776-2830)
can receive amnesty by making full restitution for the un
authorized use of our services.
StarTel appreciates the cooperation the University
and the community has given us in helping to prevent
this crime.

SMU names Parker as acting AD
DALLAS (AP) — Southern Meth
odist University officials Thursday
announced the appointment of
Dudley Parker Jr. as acting director
of athletics in the wake of Bob
Hitch’s resignation.
SMU interim President William B.
Stallcup Jr., who made the an
nouncement, said searches for the
positions of head football coach and
athletics director had not yet started.
“Prior to moving on these
searches, I intend to be in discussion
with several university groups con
cerning our needs and interests in
these areas,” Stallcup in a prepared
statement said.
Hitch and head football coach
Bobby Collins resigned last week
amid allegations that football players
may have violated National Colle
giate Athletic Association rules.
Parker has served since 1983 as
senior associate athletics director.
He has been with the SMU athletics
department since 1960.
“We are indeed grateful to Dud
ley Parker for his willingness to serve
the university in this difficult time as
acting director of athletics,” Stallcup
said.
“His knowledge of intercollegiate
athletics, his long experience here
and the respect and confidence he

New York takes steps
to recover from slump
Starter cut in team shake-up
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP)
— Coach Joe Walton has sent a
graphic message to his New York
Jets, who have plummeted in three
weeks from a team with the NFL’s
best record to one struggling to
make the playoffs.
“If it’s not working, we ought to
try to fix it,” he said.
So try he did, cutting one starter
and demoting another as the Jets,
who have lost three straight after a
10-1 start, prepared to play the Pitts
burgh Steelers at Giants Stadium
Saturday.
Despite the losing skein, in which
New York has been outscored 86-16,
New York remains in good position
for the playoffs.
A win Saturday and they clinch a
wild-card spot, take a half-game lead
over New England in the AFC East
and remain in the running for the
home-field field advantage in the
playoffs — their 10-4 record puts
them in a four-way tie for the AFC’s
best reoerd.
ton also announced that starting
fullback Tony Paige will be replaced
by rookie Nuu Faaola to add more
running to an offense that has sud
denly stalled.
But it was the release of Jackson
that got the attention.
“I don’t think he would sacrifice
someone like that just for shock ef
fect, but there’s no question he got
shock effect," defensive tackle Barry
Bennett said.
“If they cleared out about eight
reporters from your newspap>er, it
would get your attention wouldn’t
it?” asked Bob Crable, who is lieing
moved from right inside linebacker
to repilace Jackson while free agent
Kevin McArthur moves into his spot.
The main victim of Walton’s sha-
keup was Charles Jackson, a starter
in all 14 games at left outside line
backer, who was cut along with re
serve defensive end Elvis Franks,
picked up just two weeks ago. Wal-
“It’s meant to get your attention.
If it succeeds, great. We’ll go from
there.”
The game brings together two
teams whose fortunes have change
considerably in the course of the sea
son.
The Steelers are just 5-9 but have
won four of their last seven. One of
those losses was a 13-10 defeat by
Super Bowl champion Chicago and
another was an overtime loss to
Cleveland, which leads the AFC
Central with a 10-4 record.
