Happy Birthday! tuvu0 X00 Today marks the 200th anniversary of the Bill of Rights, which se- cured perhaps our most precious freedoms. Adopted as the first 10 amendments to our Constitution, the Bill of Rights was far from per- fect; it did nothing, for example, to extend liberty to slaves and women, who were denied basic rights for many more years. For them, the 13th and 19th Amendments were equally, if not more, important than the first 10. But as far as beginnings go, this one was pretty special. First Amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Second Amendment A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be in- fringed. Third Amendment No soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be pre- scribed by law. Fourth Amendment The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be vio- lated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. Fifth Amendment No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infa- mous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, ex- cept in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against him- self, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. Sixth Amendment In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district whereinathe crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.. Seventh Amendment In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of common law. Eighth Amendment Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel an unusual punishment inflicted. Ninth Amendment The enumeration in the Constitution,.of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. Tenth Amendment The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. SPORTS OF THE DAILY: narr One hundred and one years of editorial freedom Duke outlasts Blue Hurley's free throws win it in OT, 88-85 by David Schechter Daily Basketball Writer Vol. CI, No. 53EXTRA Ann Arbor, Michigan - Sunday, December 15, 1991 It almost happened in Ann Arbor. The raw talent of a young Michigan basketball team forced Duke, the reigning national champions, into an overtime dual and almost shocked the world (again) in an 88-85 loss. "At Michiganyou don't have moral victories. We felt we could beat Duke," Wolverine coach Steve Fisher said. "I knew we would have to play very well, maybe catch a break, but we felt that, especially at home, we could beat Duke." After trailing by as much as 17 in the first half, Michigan started the second half with a 24-13 spurt. The Wolverines went from 10 points down at halftime to a 57-56 lead with 8:11 left in the game. Duke went scoreless for 6:22 during that stretch. "I don't want to come up here and say we were hor- rible. When we were bad, Michigan made us look bad," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "In pressure situa- tions, they did not wilt." Rookie Chris Webber scored 12 of his 27 points to spur the comeback. Webber outperformed Duke's cele- brated inside force, center Christian Laettner, who fin- ished with 24 points and eight rebounds. Krzyzewski, who recruited Webber intensely, loved what he saw. "Chris was outstanding," Krzyzewski said. "Forget about 'Is he one of the top freshmen?' because he's just one of the top players. He's beyond his years." Even in victory, the Blue Devils acknowledged the close call. "I think this Michigan team is one of national championship-caliber," Duke forward Brian Davis said. "We could have easily lost this game today." The Blue Devils' know-how turned out to be the de- ciding factor in the game. After being fouled behind the three-point line, point guard Bobby Hurley (26 points, seven assists) sank all three free throws to send the game into overtime tied at 76-76. Hurley continued his free-throw accuracy in the ex- tra period, scoring the last four points of the game from the line. Duke sank 10 of 10 free throws in over- time. "At first I think everybody was a little shocked about how they came at us at the end. But we felt a sense of urgency out there," Hurley said. "We had to S esni on' ENNETH SMOLLER/Daily Wolverines' 88- Michigan's Jimmy King drives in the 85 loss to Duke yesterday. make some big things happen, and I think we did that. We got some steals, and got us in a position to win.". After the game, the players in the Michigan locker- room were noticeably quiet, but their spirits were in- tact. "Duke is the number one team in the country,'' guard Jalen Rose said. "But a couple of plays here, a couple of plays there, and we would have won." Held scoreless with three fouls in the first half, Rose emerged from the intermission to score 18 points. No hype, but still no contest NEW YORK - Last night's announcement of Michigan wide receiver Desmond Howard as the 1991 Heisman Trophy winner was essentially a foregone conclusion, a formality to wrap up Howard's record- setting season. Some four months ago, though, Howard was missing from the annual football yearbooks' preseason award predictions. Defending Heisman winner Ty Detmer loomed as the favorite to repeat, with expected contention from Florida State quarterback Casey Weldon and Michigan State running back Tico Duckett. Their preseason hype matched Phil the predictions. Detmer ended up on the cover of Brigham Young's media guide, and the Duckett Dock- ett, a Michigan State public rela- tions release, tried to highlight Duckett's weekly accomplish- ments. th During the summer, everybody knew the Wolverine offense would be explosive. But this was Michi- gan - no individual stars. The Wolverine receiver for the1 Heisman? Absurd. Preposterous. If anybody had a shot, it would have to be the Wolverine tailback. After all, Michigan was in the Big Ten, home of three yards and a cloud of dust. But while most of the country ignored Howard, Wolverine fans in Ann Arbor and across America knew his penchant for the big play. They had seen it against Michigan State, Oct. 13, 1990, with his 95-yard, fourth- quarter touchdown kickoff return. Although the Spartans squeaked out a one-point victory on that day, Michigan fans knew they had a star in the making. Howard reminded many of Notre Dame's Rocket, except Howard wasn't just a great returner - he was a great receiver, too. "He's an athlete. He could do it all, with a basketball or a football," Howard's high school coach Bill Gutbord said from the Downtown Athletic Club yesterday. "His hands and timing were amazing." Howard jumped onto the scene in a hurry this year. With his 93-yard touchdown kickoff return and three scoring grabs against Boston College, Howard gave himself instant national exposure. His dramatic fourth-and-one lunging touchdown reception to seal Michigan's victory over Notre Dame launched him See GREEN, Page 2 h by T Daily NI no on Desm Heisr Dowi York finish tancir Floric He Wolv the a Harm said. they r Heisn beaut "It tory, goes. my lii He had a aware Dame "It becau day i Howa He first-I Simp 1968. wides points Br Detm and N Steve Althof emon expec "I Blue icers buck Broncos, 5-5, 7-2 Yesterday, Desmond Howard became the second player in Michig an football history to win the Heisman Trophy, which honors the nation's top collegiate player. Moeltier, AndersA-on share i~n excite-ment by Andy De Kotte Daily Hockey Writer The Michigan hockey team heads into the holiday break on a cheery note, courtesy of a 7-2 victory over Western Michigan last night. After a hard-fought 5-5 tie Friday evening, both teams laced up their skates yes- terday determined to win the next contest. But Michigan prevailed. Friday night's scoring came in streaks: Michigan scored the first three goals, Western countered with two, the Wolverines echoed with another pair, and then the Broncos scored three unanswered goals to es- cape with the tie. Last night, how- ever, was all Michigan. "I thought tonight was more typical of our team," Wolverine coach Red Berenson said. "All of our lines were clicking; it was good to see (Mike) Stone get one and (Mike) Helber. We need to keep getting the balanced play.... Our power play was more deadly, and our penalty killing was a lot better tonight as well." Stone's first goal of the 1991-92 campaign, a breakaway set up by Helber, opened the scoring at the 2:22 mark of the first period. A power play goal by David Roberts, followed by a goal from Denny Felsner 10 minutes later, put the Wolverines up by three 12 min- utes into the first period - a minute quicker than the night before. "It seems like we always start bad right now," Western defense- man Andy Suhy said. "We really need to focus on playing 60 minutes, not start playing in the third period." When Bronco Colin Ward scored his CCHA-leading ninth power play goal, it seemed that WMU might work some comeback magic again. But by the time Keith Jones scored WMU's second goal at the 9:16 mark of the third period, Wolverines Brian Wiseman, Helber, and David Oliver had all scored to dispel any comeback notion the Broncos might have had. Felsner capped the Michigan scoring with a power play goal with 5:27 left in the game. In the last -10 minutes of the game the Broncos committed five penalties for 31 minutes, including 10-minute game misconducts for Broncos Jones and Suhy. by Jeff Sheran Daily Football Writer; Michigan football coach Gary Moeller sat on the hardwood at Crisler Arena watching, wide receiver Desmond Howard accept the Heisman Trophy yesterday. He was about to praise Howard on national television, but the ecstatic crowd behind him,, watching the ceremony on Crisler's wide-, screen televisions, precluded Moeller's ap- pearance on NBC. However, Moeller spoke after the presen- tation, and his words were complimentary. "I think it's a very-special day and year in the history of Michigan football," Moeller said. "I am relieved, happy, and proud for Desmond and for the University. But I'm glad, it's over with."1 All season, Moeller had been wary of the attention the Heisman race had placed upon Howard. But yesterday, the smiling coach con- ceded the hype may have worked to Howard's advantage. "If it would have hurt his play, it would have been a bad award," Moeller said. "In this case, I think it motivated him to a higher level of play." Also on hand at Crisler was Michigan linebacker Erick Anderson, winner of this year's Butkus Award. Anderson appreciated Howard's acceptance speech, in which he dedi- cated the trophy to all of his teammates. "He deserves all the credit for the award," Anderson said. "But to hear him speak, it gives us a feeling that we had a little bit to do with . .. . A J
