moments In one scene an
almost bottomless crevice
opens spewing snow and ice
The scene proves so spec
tacular that there is no way
that it could have been
faked The scene was shot by
placing charges over a huge
snow-covered crevice and
when it blows, the result is
quite impressive
John Lone stars as the
Iceman, whose role calls for
a very primal approach to
his character. In this, he
tackles it well
The real story of the film is
Hutton, who has become one
of the most impressive of the
crop of young actors that
have recently hit the screen
He proves that his fine
performance in “Ordinary
People" was no accident by
putting in another great
performance here
Hutton's performance is
very important to the film
because his character is the
film The point of the picture
is to see what he sees and
feel what he feels And
because Hutton performs so
well, "Iceman" is very good

Model U.N. delegation wins award
Bv RUSTY CARTMI1 I A— 7
By RUSTY CARTMI1.1.
KH an. Black Vaalalaat \m foliar
If the Model United
Nations were a World Series,
ihe University would have
won it this year
Preparation and team
spirit last week powered the
University's Model U.N
delegation to its fourth first-
place finish in the last seven
years, according to
delegation members and the
delegation's leader, political
science professor Robert
Clute.
Approximately 160 other
schools across the nation
competed
Not only did the University
delegation take one of five
Outstanding Delegation
awards, but it also won the
moat individual honors at Ihe
conference, held in New
York City from April 17 to
April 22
The University’s 13-
momber delegation, selecled
by Clute, represented the
Western African nation of
Sierra Leone Clute said the
University delegation, which
has represented other
nations such as Chad, Kenya
and Ghana in the past,
represents an African nation
each year because of
superior library resources
and expertise on the region
within the political science
department Clute credited
work and preparation for the
University's first-place
finish
"We're better prepared
and we work harder," he
said Wednesday “Ivy
League schools tend to run
on reputation We run on our
expertise, and w e whip them
every time ”
Each fall, the University's
political science department
advertises for candidates to
be delegates. Clute said
Prospective candidates, who
do not have to be political
science majors, send Clute a
resume and are sometimes
called in for interviews
Student Activity Fees fund
transportation and hotel
expenses for the trip to New
York, but delegates must
pay all other expenses. Clute
said
Jeff Felson. a delegate and
University political science
major, said that he enjoyed
participating in the con
ference, as well as seeing
New York for the first time
Felser was one of eight
members in the University s
delegation elected to head
key model U.N committees
He credited Clute's ex
pertise in African affairs and
aggressiveness on the part of
the team for the University's
sweep of top awards in both
major categories
"We were really
cohesive.” Felser said T
think other people were out
for themselves "
“It was fun," he added
One experience I had was
we got on a subway and
headed to Chinatown I
stepped off the subway and it
w as like I was in Asia "
As Chairman of the Third
World bloc of the 35-member
ad hoc commiltee on
Terrorism, Felser said that,
in addition to discussing
already-scheduled issues
about terrorism, his com
mittee was briefed by a U S.
military adviser on last
week's standoff at the
Libyan embassy in London
Although committee
members discussed the
situation, the full Model U.N.
did not have time to pass a
resolution on the matter.
Felser added
"They really went all out
to make it seem like the real-
world situation." he said
Students chosen for the
delegation met weekly for up
to four hours winter quarter
to prepare for the con
ference. Felser said
Clute said the major
problems faced by Sierra
Leone, which include
overpopulation, overur
banization. low income and
high foreign debts, parallel
problems faced by other sub-
Saharan African nations He
added that, as director of the
“home office" for English-
speaking sub Saharan
African delegations, he
helped supply information to
other delegations
“One of our major
problems is that we worry
about unprepared
delegations that don't lake a
realistic stand," Clute said
Felser said that, although
it involved more work and
research, representing a
lesser-known Third World
country gave the University
an advantage since student
delegates had few precon
ceived notions about Sierra
Leone's concerns and
positions
"It gives us an extra
variable - a wild card,” he
said
The United Stales was
represented at the con
ference by a delegation from
the U S Military Academy
at West Point, which also
recieved an Outstanding
Delegation award, Felser
added
other committees chaired
by University delegates
included the committee on
Peaceful Uses of Outer
Space, the Non-Aligned
Conference, the Population
Commission and the General
Assembly's African Bloc
"The success of the
Georgia Model United
Nations team has the
National Board shaking
their heada," Clute wrote in
a prepared statement.
"Meat other schools attend
several regional com
petitions which give them
experience before attending
the National
"Due to budget limitations
the Georgia learn goes
straight to the National
without any previous ex
perience, but with good
preparation and expertise,”
he said “Georgia library
holdings and staff assistance
are an essential part of the
team's success."
Clute added that the
University's delegation was
selected for lop honors by
polls of delegation directors
and delegates He added that
the University supplied
materials thft helped other
delegations representing
African nations in their
presentations al discussions,
which had topics ranging
from overpopulation to
protectionism in trade
Felser said that the
University's delegation won
only a certificate for its top-
place finishes at the model
UN. which is sponsored
annually by the National
Model United Nations, a non
profit organization
"Really and truthfully it's
just the prestige of winning
out of 160-odd schools," he
said. "Students here were
very aggressive. We had a
huge desire to keep up our
reputation.
"I'd say the team was just
darn well prepared The
directors said afterwards
that there wasn't much
discussion, and it was
practically unanimous (hat
(the University) was the
most well-prepared."
Clute: ‘We whip them every time’
