...order. However, HUPD claims that it doesn't even receive enough money to pay for one more escort car. When the safety and well-being of the student body are at stake, it is hard to believe that the University can't find a little extra in its pocket for campus security...
...Star Tamara McKinney, who broke her leg three months before, fell on the first run. Two other convalescing U.S. skiers, Diann Roffe and '84 Olympic GS Gold Medalist Debbie Armstrong, could do no better than twelfth and 13th. Now came Fernandez-Ochoa.
