Cimino, 37, broke into movies as a writer for Clint Eastwood. After directing the promising Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, he spent four years on various scripts before joining forces with De Niro on The Deer Hunter. Here Cimino creates a portrait of the war that beggars logic and is boundless in terror. An early Viet Nam sequence, in which imprisoned Americans are forced to play Russian roulette by their Viet Cong captors, is one of the most gut-wrenching ever. With Peter Zinner's virtuoso editing, an agonizing sound track and Vilmos Zsigmond's fiery cinematography, Cimino creates...
DEFENSIVE LINE--Yale had the toughest defense in the league this year, so it's appropriate that three of the five linemen are Elis: end Clint Streit, tackle Bob Skoronski and sophomore middle guard Kevin Czinger (Princeton's Pete Funke will have to wallow on the second team).

Hurdle ended up with a triple, and after a crash-bang play at the plate for the second out, Patek hit Tidrow's final pitch out of the park...
...best and the brightest the country has to offer, seemed quite impressed with this Hollywood portrayal of college life. In fact, most of these guys were so well nurtured on T V that they idolized, and even impersonated, many of the celluloid heroes. Starsky and Hutch and, of course. Clint Eastwood seem to be quite popular with the class of '82. But don't jump to conclusions. Not all the freshmen emulate these macho studs. No, it's a well diversified and varied class. Many of them emulate comedians. In one hour I met six "wild and crazy guys" doing...
