SOMETIMES n TAKES
AN ARMY TO PAY BACK YOUR
COLLEGE LOAN.
Paying back your college loan
can be a long, uphill battle. But the
Army’s Loan Repayment Program
makes it easy.
Each year you serve as a soldier,
the Army will reduce your college
debt by V3 or $1,500, whichever
amount is greater. So after serving just
3 years, your college loan will be com
pletely paid off.
"Vbu’re eligible for this program
with a National Direct Student Loan
or a Guaranteed Student Loan or a
Federally Insured Student Loan made
after October 1,1975. And the loan
can’t be in default.
And just because you’ve left col
lege, don’t think you’ll stop learning
in the Army. Our skill training offers
a wealth of valuable high-tech, career-
oriented skills. Call your local Army
Recruiter to find out more.

Graduates are heavily recruited by
would-be employers, including law
enforcement agencies. The Roches
ter, N.Y., Police Department set up
a recruitment table early this semes
ter.
The school’s alumni include two
dozen to three dozen police chiefs
across the country.
The Criminal Justice Center
housed at Jay is sort of an advanced
cop school, but students don’t take
formal courses. It offers workshops
and seminars on such things as hos
tage negotiation, stakeout and sur
veillance techniques, confidential in
formants, clandestine drug labs,
bomb awareness. The classroom is
often the street.
Forty percent of Jay’s students
come from families that earn under
$12,000 a year. They are older than
most college students and md

their show was a pre-release glimpse
of “Fast Moving Train,” the title and
first single for their next RCA re
lease.
Following “Fast Moving Train”
was “That Rock Won’t Roll,” “a
song for all the ladies in the house.”
The big moment in it was Stewart’s
roam through the audience, from
which he plucked a young, adoring
fan, and subsequently serenaded her.
It was interesting at that moment to
wonder what would have become of
Michael Stipe if he had been so dar
ing a few weeks earlier. I don’t think
he would have escaped clothed.
The half-time show was one of the
more enjoyable segments, although
it did include Innis’ rump shaking.
But it was nice to see that the band
does not take themselves too se
riously. A couple of tongue-in-cheek
covers, a few pranks and good-na
tured jokes, plus bass player Paul
Gregg’s (a snappy dresser in de
signer chaps and black hat) pony
ride, added a nice touch of humor to
the evening.
From then on it was pure Restless
Heart, combining country jams
(“Hummingbird”) with their fusion
of country/pop (“I’ll Still Be Loving
You” and “New York (Hold Her
Tight”)) that sounds more like Toto
or Journey than any true country
band.
When it all was done, including a
two-song encore that started with all
five members wearing A&M sweat
shirts, the band finally received their
standing ovation. At this point I real
ized how eerie country shows were.
Three and a half hours passed before
someone finally stood up and ap
plauded one of these bands.
I guess country is just a different
animal, a quite perplexing one to
me. Some might label it boring, but
you would have been hard pressed to
find anyone admit that Friday night.
I enjoyed Baillie and the Boys and
see no reason why Restless Heart
can’t be the next Alabama. They
have the perfect blend of honest fun.
