C URLEY, AND FISHER CHOOSE TO GO ELSEWHERE 6 1 t./Riu CVIJRI1 it\1/iEY. 1 AND Fii 6. 1 VVV /ISHEA.HOOSEfTO GO ELSEWHERE Michigan by Steven Cohen Daily Basketball Writer Michigan basketball coach Steve Fisher may finally have reason to believe that you can't win them all. Yesterday, three recruits that Michigan sought, chose to attend college elsewhere. Detroit Pershing's Lorenzo Orr, a 6'7" forward, selected USC over Michigan and Michigan State. Bill Curley, a 6'10" forward from Duxbury (MA) High School, chose Boston College over Michigan, Villanova, Connecticut and Notre Dame. And Willie Fisher, a 6'7" forward, opted for Jacksonville over Michigan, Connecticut, and Tennessee. As expected, however, 6'9" Rich McIver of Brazosport High School in Texas, 6'4" Jason Bossard of Charlotte, MI, and last year's signee from Kalamazoo, Sam Mitchell, signed national letters of intent with Michigan. Yesterday was the first day of the early signing period which concludes November 15. "(Bossard) can do a lot of things, but what he does best is shoot the basketball, especially the long range three-point shot," Fisher said. "He's an exceptional shooter, a hard-nosed, gritty competitor, an excellent student - we're glad he's coming to Michigan." Fisher also was pleased with McIver's commitment: "He's 6'9", very, very athletic, and was pretty much an unknown commodity until last summer when he burst onto the scene with his play in the summer AAU," he added. "He's a loses out on recruits young man who's eager to learn and will continue to get better. He's a shot blocker, an inside player, and will be a great addition." The 6'9" Mitchell, who averaged 24 points, 14 rebounds, and 4 blocks a game for Kalamazoo's Loy Norrix High School, re-signed with the Wolverines. Mitchell is spending the year at a prep school in New Hampshire. "Tennessee and Iowa called and asked if I had any idea of changing schools. I told them no, that I was waiting for my moment to be coached under Steve Fisher's staff. "I like Michigan a lot. I liked them since I was a younger kid, back in the junior high days." Orr may have liked Michigan and Michigan State, where former Pershing star Steve Smith plays, but he - and his mother, who played a large part in his decision - liked USC more. "Basically he felt that's where he wanted to go," said Pershing coach Johny Goston. "He wanted to leave the city. I think he felt that he wanted to be a part of a new regime. It's a challenge for him. (Deciding on a college) was one of the most emotional, traumatic times for Lorenzo." While the opportunity to start anew elsewhere proved enticing for Orr, the stability of home- state schools was the deciding factor for Curley (who lives 40 miles from Boston), and Fisher. "It was the toughest thing I ever had to do," said the 6'10" Curley, a fourth-team Street and Smith All-American. "I wish I could go to all five schools. "Since I plan on living in Boston after college, going to Boston College will open more opportunities for me." Curley spoke to Coach Fisher on Tuesday night to tell him of his decision. "He was real nice to me, so he made it easy on me and that wasn't too bad. I don't think (he was too upset.) He's such a nice guy. He understands what's best for me." Jacksonville appealed to Willie Fisher for three reasons. It was close to home, his best friend Alonzo Harris plays there, and the level of competition in the Sun Belt Conference should provide him with the opportunity to play right away. According to a source at the Orlando Sentinel, Fisher may not be sorely missed by the Wolverines. "He only scored 15 points a game, 9 rebounds," the source said. "He would never be a starter. He's real slight - he doesn't have the build to play inside. I think he wants to stay in- state, I think he likes the fact he can play right away." Joe Reid, a 6'9" center from University High School in Ohio, is expected to sign next week. He is considering Michigan and Ohio State primarily, according to his coach Jeff Morton. "We're going to sign one more, possibly two more players, before the end of the early signing period," Fisher said. Michigan icer Doug Evans feels more at home at Yost than California. California dreamin' *.Evans home in Yost by Peter Zellen Daily Hockey Writer The climate on the West Coast has a tendency to make sport fans focus on outdoor games, like football and baseball. This was unfortunate for Doug Evans, a sophomore defenseman on the Michigan hockey team. Unfortunate because Evans was born and raised in San Jose, California. "There's no real organization for hockey out there - it's just football, baseball, and soccer," Evans said. "The weather just isn't conducive to hockey." So how exactly did Evans emerge as a hockey player while others played under the sun? "When I was nine, my sister was learning how to figure skate and I tried skating, too, and I liked it," Evans said. "I was a quick learner and I started to develop as a hockey player." When Evans started high school, his talent started to emerge and his coach suggested that he challenge himself and move to a more hockey- oriented part of the country.

The faculty offers graduate research training in a variety of systems, including bacteria, yeast, drosophila, mammalian cells, and the mouse, on DNA replication and recombination, regulation of RNA synthesis and processing, receptors and their role in cell function and differentiation, and retroviruses, oncogenes, and development. In addition to developing their own research project, students are provided with formal training through a core curriculum, advanced courses and journal clubs. The adjacent campuses of the Sloan Kettering Institute, Cornell University Medical College, and the Rockefeller University form an outstanding scientific, medical, educational and social community. A wide variety of seminars and symposia are scheduled at all three institutions throughout the year that bring many eminent scientists from all over the world into the lecture hall. Such distinguished series as the Harvey Lectures and the Enzyme Club are a regular part of our scientific community.
