Judge to rule today on gag order
By FRED BAYLES
Associated Press Writer
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. An attorney for a
man charged in a barroom gang rape asked a
judge yesterday to continue a gag order barring
publication of a newspaper's interview with his
client.
The lawyer said the story would have "an
emotional impact" on the case.
But an attorney for the newspaper said the
story holds no revelations and presents no danger
to the defendant's right to a fair trial.
Superior Court Judge Gerald F. O'Neill Jr. said
he would rule today whether he would continue
the order he issued preventing The Standard-
Times of New Bedford from publishing an inter
view with Victor Raposo.
Raposo, 23, is one of four men charged in the
March 6 rape at Big„ Dan's Tavern in New
Bedford. Police reported the woman was raped

Two other men were charged with being acces

on bail awaiting an Oct. 11 trial.
The newspaper said it received a letter from
Raposo asking to tell his side of the case. Assis
tant City Editor John Impemba conducted the
interview over two days last week at the Bristol
County House of Correction.
Attorney Harry Bello went to court at week's
end, seeking a restraining order preventing pub
lication of the Interview which he said damaged
his client's chance for a fair trial.
O'Neill issued a temporary restraining order
Friday. An appeal by The Standard-Times was
turned down by a. state appeals court justice,
pending O'Neill's decision on issuing a perma
nent restraining order

interviewed Raposo.
"The newspaper is saying that it is defending
the public's right to know," said Bello. "But they
also are saying our commercial instincts tell us
that publishing an interview with Victor Raposo
is going to sell a tremendous number of newspa
pers."
Bello said the extensive publicity the case has
already received would make a fair trial diffi
cult, but he said the interview "is likely to create
an emotional impact much more than what's
been written about it in the past."
Three attorneys representing other defendents
in the case also presented brief statements claim
ing their clients would be hurt by publication of
the article.
Bello gave O'Neill a written synopsis of what
his client said was in the interview. The judge
impounded the affadavit. But after reading the
document, Standard-Times attorney Thomas
Crotty said it contained nothing new.

Man confesses to a
1 5-year-old murder
By The Associated Press
DETROIT A 30-year-old man
walked into police headquarters, suit
case in hand, and confessed to killing
an elderly businessman 15 years ago
to get money to compete in the Junior
Uympics, police said.
Robert Garth, who authorities said
had no permanent address, said he
has had nothing but bad luck since the
killing and wanted to clear his con
science.
Garth turned himself in last week,
telling officers about the Aug. 21,
1968, murder of Joseph Moceri, 67.
Garth, who was 15 years old at the
time of the slaying and has had no
run-ins with the law since, was
charged Monday with second-degree

Kimber said Garth walked into
police headquarters toting a suitcase
and said, "I came in here to tell you I
killed somebody, and I've had noth
ing but bad luck since it happened."'
Garth told police he beat Moceri to
death with a pipe during a $62 rob
bery at Moceri's business. Garth was
trying to get money to go to the Juhior
Olympics in St. Louis, where he com
peted in track and field events.
Moceri, of Grosse Pointe Farms,
was well known and liked in the
Detroit neighborhood where he oper
ated the AAA Store Fixture and
Equipment Co., police said.
Kimber, said Garth finished telling
his story by saying, "Boy, do I feel
better now."

Cornhuskers earned more than just revenge

It had that certain kind of ambi
ance.
Even though the First Annual
Kickoff Classic did not have the
competition that it expected, the
Meadowlands Complex and the sur
rounding area was treated to an
atmosphere that reminded every
one of one of those high class post
season bowl games.
There were many different things
that led anyone to believe Monday
was Jan. I.
First of all, the amount of dollars
and cents of a bowl game was pre
sent at this pre-season game.
Both teams could receive close to
$700,000 when everything is count
ed, which rates with some of the top
bowl games on New Year's Day.
Along with any bowl game comes
a huge amount of press coverage—

Reporters from Florida, New
York, California and yes, The Daily
Collegian, were covering this game
giving it all the pre-game hype
that anyone could get sick of. If it
wasn't one pre-story it was another,
and when Nebraska Head Coach
Tom Osborne stood at the podium
for a press conference a day before
the game, not one question was
asked.
"I'm kind of all talked out," Os
borne said. "I appreciate your si
lence."
Not only was Osborne talked out,
but the press was questioned out.
There was just nothing new to write
that hadn't been printed at least a
month prior to the game.
When all the press conferences
were over, finally it was time for the
coin toss. There were no more ques-

controversial loss to Penn State at Beaver
Stadium.
The Huskers' omnipotent offense took
over right where it left off last season.
Nebraska scored early and often, utilizing
the many talents of senior quarterback
Turner Gill. Gill, along with tailback Mike
Rozier, wingback Irving Fryar and a rebuilt

offensive line, moved the ball at will against
a fired up Penn State defense.
"I figured that we would win by two or
three touchdowns," Gill said. "I never
thought that we would just blow them out
completely like we did."
Although everyone on the Husker offense
made his presence known, the experienced
tions to be asked, just the final score
and who was a better football team.
All the stories had been covered.
There was a huge sigh of relief in
the press box when the co-captains
approached midfield for the coin
toss.
' But wait of course for a bowl
type game this was not going to be
any normal coin toss. The coin used
was the commemorative coin of the
1984 U.S. Olympics printed by the
U.S. Department of the Treasury to
raise money for the the for 1984
Games. ~
Oh yeah I forgot to mention the
paratroopers dropping into the sta
dium from high above before the
game. Something that probably was
not reported was that one of the
paratroopers made a perfect land
ing while the other one tumbled to
the ground.

And then finally the kickoff of the
First Annual Kickoff Classic. Ev
eryone was waiting for it, but per
haps the Penn State squad was
waiting a bit too long.
The Cornhuskers dominated the
Lions 44-6 and all those questions
and I mean, ALL THOSE QUES
TIONS asked time after time
about revenge were answered. Ne
braska got enough revenge to last a
lifetime by dishing out the worst
loss Penn State has had since 1966.
Another thing I forgot was the
halftime show. What's a big time
bowl game without a big time half
time show? After the Blue Band
played, which made many feel at
ease that things are still normal, on
came the cavalry.
The halftime show consisted of all
different facets of the army, navy,
air force, marines (sorry to get
carried away). It was another one
of those interesting and somewhat
different spectaculars that bowl
games are noted for.
I
locc.
And when the game was completed
again came the questions in an
interview room where 200 members
of the media tried to cram into 40
seats.
When that steam bath was over,
many questions were answered and
as usually a few were unknown.
. But even though it seems a lot was
made over nothing for this game
there was an overriding positive
note left over from this one. •
In a day and age where everyone
seems to make a big deal over
anything that will make money, this
game seemed to go beyond the
dollars.
Sure the Penn State team looked a
bit unprepared and never really
made a game of it but everyone
hopes it was a true learning experi
ence.
And for Nebraska everyone got
a preview of the No. 1 team this
year that could be the next national
champion.
And even the press, besides losing
a few pounds in the steam bath, got
its pre-game, pre-season, pre-year,
pre-month hype out of the way.
So when the Kickoff Classic was
all over, it really did serve its in
tents and purposes.
There was no promise of a fantas
tic game, but there was a promise of
opening the collegiate season the
same way it ends with a lot of
fanfare and a lot of hype.

Gill was the glaring difference in the game.
In fact, Nebraska coach Tom Osborne had
the luxury of giving his starting quar
terback a breather midway through the
second quarter.
Nate 'Mason was the replacement and all
he did was come in and cap a 66-yard
scoring drive with a 20-yard scoring pass to
tight end Todd Frain.
On the night, the Penn State quarterback
tandem of Doug Strang and Dan Lonergan
completed 13 of 39 passes while throwing for
one touchdown and one interception which
resulted in a touchdown jaunt for Nebraska
linebacker 'Mike Knox.
On the other side of scrimmage, Gill and
Mason combined to complete 12 of 16 passes
for 178 yards and two touchdowns. They also
combined to rush for 102 yards.
"I thought that if we played well and they
played well, it would probably be a five to a
seven point game," Osborne said. "I
thought maybe we could win it strictly on
the basis of Turner Gill being experienced."
Despite the exploive performance of Os
borne's offense, he was more impressed
with the play of his defense.
"I think the defense was a tremendous
factor in the game," Osborne said. "The
interception by Mike Knox just kind of broke
their ( Penn States) backs."
Knox's interception gave the Huskers a
27-0 lead at a point in the third quarter that
looked like the Lions might put something
together offensively, but Knox stepped in
front of a Strang pass in the flat. Suddenly,
going down the stretch, the Huskers really
had the Lions by the tails.

Even though the Husker offense compiled
500 yards in total offense, the Penn State
defense could hardly be faulted considering
Nebraska's field position as well as the
amount of time the Husker's were in posses-

takes time.
The players kn6w it and the
coaches know it.
, It's just hard for the fans and
everyone else to realize it.
After the worst loss in the foot
ball team's history, a 44-6 romp by
Nebraska over the Lions, two
quarterbacks realized success
doesn't come overnight.
Alumni Chuck Fusina and Todd
Blackledge had to go through their
trying moments before they got
the recognition. But for junior
quarterbacks Doug Strang and
Dan Lonergan, those trying mo
ments are even tougher to wake up
to the next morning.
And it is mainly due to the
success of their predecessor and a
national championship season.
Both Strang and Lonergan
opened up with what best can be
called dismal performances.
Strang threw two completions in
10 attempts for 22 yards and Lo
nergan, who played more in the
second half, threw 11 completions
in 29 passes for 205 yards. But that
was mainly the Cornhuskers' sec
ond string defensive unit.
After the game Strang faulted
himself with a good deal of the
offensive failure.
"I didn't come through when the
pressure was on," Strang said.
"I'm very disappointed with the
way I played."
Although Penn State Head
Coach Joe Paterno said the offen
sive line is going to need some
work, both quarterbacks said they
had the time but could not finish
the play.
"I think as far as passing-wise, I

sion of the football
"You don't beat Nebraska with defense,"
Penn State Head Coach Joe Paterno said.
"You have to score some points. Nebraska
was a great team tonight. I certainly don't
want to take anything away from them."
Although the impressive play of the
Busker defense was a surprise, the fact that
the outstanding play of the Nebraska of
fense came as no surprise.
One must wonder if there is any stopping
the triumvirate of Gill. Rozier and Fryar.
"Our goal is to score 35 points a game
against any opponent," Fryar said. "We
know we can score points."
Nebraska could probably score a lot more
points if the rules would allow for the use of
a couple more footballs.
And if those three aren't dangerous
enough, fullback Mark Schellen also hap
pens to have 4.5 speed in the 40-yard dash
while also possessing a majority of the
Nebraska weight room records.
Those credentials simply qutilify him to
block for Rozier, the Huskers' most keyed
upon player.
"Everybody wanted to hit me tonight,"
Rozier said. "Every-time they faked to me,
everyone went to my side."
Rozier finished as the game's leading
rusher but he was well below everyone's
expectations amassing 75 yards on 16
carries.
Rozier has been chosen as the Husker's
recipient of the Reisman Trophy hype. Even
Fryar thinks Rozier will win.
"Mike will probably win the Heisman,"
Fryar said. "But I'll he pushing him. If
people want to vote for me, that's fine with
me." ' •
All that any of the Huskers really care
about is holding on to that precarioug No. 1
ranking.
had all the time in the world,"
Strang said. "I overthrew them
and I underthrew them.
, "It gets kind of frustrating when
you pick the right guy out and you
can't get the ball to them," he
said. "You're trying to figure out
what's going on and it gets
worse."
For Strang the situation did get
After the Penn State defense
held the Nebraska offense in the
beginning of the second half,
Strang returned to the ball game.
On a third and two from his own
28, Strang threw an interception
that was run back for a touchdown
by Cornhusker linebacker Mike
Knox.
"It was a great sign of an inex
perienced quarterback," Strang
said.
For Lonergan, things did get
better as the game went on, but
early he was unable to find receiv
ers and often miscued on patterns.
Lonergan was a bit more opti
mistic about the team's perfor
mance last night.
"It was a learning experience,"
Lonergan said. "We missed a lot
of passes and rushed a lot of
things. But we've got to come
back.
All-American flanker Kenny
Jackson, who had four passes for
54 yards, agreed it will take time.
"A game situation makes a
player great," Jackson said. "It
takes more than one game. Ne
braska was able to take advantage
of a lot of things."
The situation before the game
did not let either quarterback rest
easy either.
Paterno made his final decision
to start Strang the day before the
game .
