...whatever reason, Silber doesn't mince words. Responding to charges that he denied salary increases to political science professors Howard Zinn and Murray Levin because they are among his most outspoken critics, Silber said they simply do not deserve higher salaries: "They are not regarded in high esteem generally--Harvard has never offered them a professorship; neither has Yale. If these people are so worried about their salaries, why don't they get an offer someplace else? The answer is no place else wants them...
Islamic militants at the embassy said they would release black and women hostages "whose espionage has not been proved," and freed 13 last week. Friends and former classmates of Swift said yesterday they believe the students decided not to free her because of her high-ranking position in the embassy. State department officials refused to identify Swift's position in the office, but a former roommate said yesterday that Swift has been stationed overseas for several years...
Faust runs an offense that is as sophisticated as those of most colleges. Among other things, it features passing plays devised by one of the coach's friends from a rival Cincinnati high school, a rather competent quarterback named Roger Staubach. College coaches value especially the precise execution that Moeller players learn. Woody Hayes made three recruiting trips to the school in his final year at Ohio State, and U.S.C.'s John Robinson, Penn State's Joe Paterno, Michigan's Bo Schembechler and Notre Dame's Dan Devine are regular callers...
Moeller also plays a little better than anybody else. The Moeller monolith not only bowls over all local opponents but dispatches out-of-state challengers as well. This season, Moeller crushed a perennial Detroit schoolboy power, Brother Rice High School, 33-14, then took on the flagship school of the tough western Pennsylvania mine country, Penn Hills High; score: Moeller 30, Penn Hills 13. The Crusaders' final regular season game against Mount Healthy was typical. Despite a driving rain that turned the field into a swamp, the flashy Moeller offense still operated in high gear, rolling up five touchdowns...
Faust, 44, a gravel-voiced six-footer, is second-generation football. His father, Gerard Sr., now 72, coached for 20 years in Dayton, where young Jerry was an all-state quarterback. After starring at the University of Dayton, Faust joined local Chaminade High as a backfield coach. Hired in 1960 by Moeller to start a freshman football team, Faust first fielded a varsity in 1963, and the Fighting Crusaders dynasty was born...
