    CU’s Warren not charged;
Boyce faces hearing soon
BOULDER, Colo, (AP) —
Although he could still face team
sanctions, University of Colorado
police say starting tailback Lamont
Warren was not charged with carrying
an open container of alcohol.
Warren, one of four Colorado
athletes arrested Sunday, was not
charged with anything, said CU police
spokesman John Kish. Another person
with Warren apparently held the open
container, he said.
“I don’t believe he had one (open
container),” Kish said. “He was in a
vehicle with an open container. My
understanding was he was very
cooperative.”
While investigating the open
container violation, police discovered
Warren had failed to appear to answer
a charge of unlawful use of a driver’s
license Jan. 29. His scheduled court
appearance on the driver’s license
charge was Feb. 24.
Warren could still face a one-game
suspension on the failure-to-appear
charge, but an open-container
violation could have greatly hurt his
playing status. Coach Bill McCartney
suspended tailback Rashaan Salaam
for last week’s Texas game for a
charge of giving a policeman a false
name last April.
While McCartney said he will not
announce suspensions, Warren
alternated with James Hill and worked
with the first team during Tuesday’s
practice.

S wazwer and Keenan Gardner moved
out of their dorms following expulsion

a separate incident on weapons

Boulder County District Court on
Thursday. Swazer is scheduled to
appear at 9 a.m., Gardner at 2 p.m.
The two also face a review by
Kathy Marquis, CU ’ s student conduct
director. According to Pauline Hale,

Another CU athlete arrested
Sunday, basketball star Donnie Boyce,
has met with coach Joe Harrington.
Boyce was charged with obstructing a
governmental operation following an
incident in which Boulder police
suspected a drug deal.

he will wait for the judicial process to
unfold before taking any action.
Missouri basketball forward
suspended for one semester
COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — A
second brush with the law has
resulted in a one-semester
suspension for Jevon Crudup, a
senior forward on the Missouri
basketball team.
Crudup, a 6-foot-9 starting
forward, was suspended after his
arrest by the Missouri State
Highway Patrol early Tuesday for
driving while intoxicated and
failing to drive on the right side of
the road.
On Aug. 29, he and teammate
Melvin Booker were given
municipal summonses for
disturbing the peace after a fight at
the university's Memorial Union.
Coach Norm Stewart said after
the first incident that he was
considering a one-game suspension
for each player. After the arrest
Tuesday, Stewart said he would
suspend the 21-year-old Crudup
from the team this semester but
could change the punishment when
the cases are cleared.
“1 just feel that at the time, with
everything going on, that we need
to do something, and we’re going
to do it,” Stewart said.
“I’m going to try to do it in
Jevon’s best interest, but we’ve got
the ballclub to think about and all
the other things that are going on,”
he said.
The first semester ends Dec. 18,
and the second semester begins
Jan. 18. If Crudup is kept out until
the end of the first semester, he
would miss four regular-season
games and two exhibitions. If he is
held out until the start of the next
term, he would miss 12 regular
season games, including conference
games against Kansas State and
Colorado.
“As to when he could be eligible
and what game, that didn’t enter
it,” Stewart said. “I don’t know.”
WORK SMARTER.
NOT HARDER.
Engineering student?
Smart.
Math or science
major? Also smart.
On tests, you probably run
equations over again to make
sure they’re right. So you’re
working harder.
You don’t have to do that
anymore. Not when you use
the *11-68 Advanced Scientific
or TI-85 Graphics Calculator,
with their last equation replay
feature — and many other
smart functions.
We’ve spent years with
students like you
and educators like your profes
sors to develop the TI-68 and
the TI-85. That’s why they’re
so highly recommended. ^ '
For engineering students, the
TI-68 solves up to five simul
taneous equations, has complex
number functions and offers
formula programming.
The TI-85 builds on the
power of the TI-68 by adding a
wide range of graphing capabil
ities. Math students can handle
calculus problems more easily.
And technical students can see
the functions for a better
understanding of problems.
The TI-85 also handles
complex numbers. Matrices.
Vectors. Lists. Strings. Plus, it
offers a powerful one-equation
SOLVER.

Wolverines
are picked
to rout Irish
By The Associated Press
Over the last five years, the
Michigan-Notre Dame game has been
decided by an average of four points.
So why are the Wolverines favored by
9 1/2 points Saturday at Michigan
Stadium?
Michigan has a better team, more
motivation and the homefield
advantage.
While No. 11 Notre Dame struggled
to beat Northwestern 27-12 last week,
No. 3 Michigan looked impressive in
a41-14 win over Washington State.
Despite an inexperienced line,
Michigan has one of the best offenses
in the country. Quarterback Todd
Collins has thrown nine TD passes in
three career starts, running back
Tyrone Wheatley is a legitimate
Heisman Trophy contender, and
receiver Derrick Alexander has
Desmond Howard-type skills.
The Wolverines also have a stingy
defense. They held Washington State
to 82 yards rushing, the ninth time in
their last 12 games that the Wolverines
have given up less than 100 yards on
the ground.
Notre Dame's strength is its veteran
defense, which features eight senior
starters. The Irish have a lot of question
marks on offense, which has lost 12
players to the NFL the past two years.
Freshman quarterback Ron Powlus
might have made a big difference, but
he broke his collarbone in a preseason
scrimmage and will be out most of the
season.
i he biggest advantage ior
Michigan is motivation. The
Wolverines are convinced they have
the talent and schedule to win their
first national championship since
1948. They may be right. .
