Clement gets nod vs. FSU By LIAM FITZGERALD Sports Editor No matter how the University of Miami Hurricanes played Saturday, the team now must prepare for the clash with No. 1 Florida State University on Oct. 7 in Tallahassee. The team will be without the services of quarterback Ryan Collins, who suffered a third-degree separated right shoulder, forcing him to miss at least a month of action, if not the remainder of the season. The injury to Collins means sophomore Ryan Clement, who has played a total of eight college games, will get the start against the undefeated Seminoles. Clement, who relieved Collins Saturday, completed 13 of 25 passes for 182 yards and one interception. He did lead Miami deep into Hokie territory, but dropped passes, penalties and a late interception negated his efforts to rally the Hurricanes. "Ryan [Clement/ has a lot of confidence in his abilities," UM Coach Butch Davis said. “He didn't use his inexperience as a crutch for not getting the job done. ” Redshirt freshman Scott Covington, who has not played a down at Miami, will serve as Clement’s backup. "Ryan's ahead because of his experience, but that could change the next few weeks,” Davis said. “I'm confident they’ll both play well when given the opportunity."

Today is Jimmy Ryce’s birthday. “This tragic event is something that is affecting the whole community,” graduate student Yatta Robinson said. “The University of Miami’s involvement is a way for the students to show that we care." Posters of Ryce, who disappeared two weeks ago, have been placed on walls and bulletin boards around campus. With the help of Volunteer Services and philanthropists, UM has played a big role in involving itself in the search for Jimmy. "We will be glad to do anything we can to help with the search until he is safely returned,” Mickey Rubenstien, director of Volunteer Services, said. “Our hearts go out to the friends and family of Jimmy.” Jimmy Ryce is believed to have been abducted from the Redlands, a community in South Dade County 15 days ago. FBI agents remain baffled as to his whereabouts. “We are working with Metro Dade Police following up on numerous leads," FBI spokesman Paul Miller said, “but right now there are no viable leads as to Jimmy s location." On Monday, Sept. 11, Jimmy got off his school bus nearly four blocks from his house, but never made it home. Since then, phones have been ringing nonstop at Crimestoppers in Dade County. “We take each call seriously,' said Sgt. John Roper, head of the Crimestoppers division in Metro Dade Police Headquarters. "Even if it turns out not to be a good lead, it s good intelligence information for our detectives to look at." Police say the University of Miami s involvement is greatly appreciated.

Butler said, “I am very supportive. We have had a long-standing program of outreach to the community and 1 think that it is very commendable that the students are doing this.” Students were eager to lend a helping hand to keep the search for Jimmy alive. “We know that this is something that can happen in any of our households so we are glad to do whatever we can,” sophomore Ozzie Marrero said. Jimmy Ryce’s grief-stricken parents are grateful to the students and faculty at UM. “If there is one poster that is not hung up, that might be the one that may have led to Jimmy's safe return,” said Claudine Ryce, the boy’s mother. “We appreciate so much what the students at UM are doing.” “We sure do,” added Donald Ryce, Jimmy’s father. “We can’t give up hope...not ever, but especially not today. It's Jimmy’s birthday.” Anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Jimmy Ryce is urged to call Crimestoppers at 471-TIPS. Fraternity pledge assaulted Sunday By KELLY RUANE and LOUIS FLORES Of the Staff At approximately 1:30 a.m. Sunday morning, a Sigma Alpha Mu (SAM) pledge living at Hecht Residential College was reportedly assaulted by three other UM students. According to the police report issued by UM Public Safety, the victim stated that his attackers were three white males wearing T-shirts with the letters representing Lambda Chi Alpha. Lambda Chi Alpha T-shirts are made every three weeks, said Lambda Chi Alpha brother Barry Benezra. Benezra said that he does not know anyone besides brothers and their girlfriends and other women wear Lambda Chi Alpha T-shirts. Representatives from Lambda Chi Alpha refused to comment on the assault, however. “This student was allegedly assaulted by three other students," Dean of Students William Sandler said. “1 was told that he was a pledge at a fraternity, so I assumed he was a freshman." On Sunday, Sandler said he was informed that the attackers may have belonged to another fraternity at UM. The victim told police that he was walking from Stanford Residential College to Hecht. The victim said he was just beginning to walk up the steps when he heard someone ask him, “Are you a Sammy [Sigma Alpha Mu]?" The victim asked why, and one of the three assailants spun him around by the shoulder and then hit him. The victim punched the assailant and was then pushed against the stair railing. The victim then fell, and the three assailants began to kick him. Sandler said he received a 4:30 a.m. telephone call Sunday morning from the UM Department of Public Safety briefing him on the assault. Sandler said the victim was taken to Doctors' Hospital, after calling the police from his dorm at Hecht. The report stated that the victim, who is a freshman, suffered bruised ribs. “He was taken to a hospital. He had friends with him. He’s back in the residence halls now,” Sandler said. The police report stated that a victim's rights pamphlet was given to the victim, and that he was also advised of the availability of campus escort services. “We would also make sure the student’s psychological well-being is taken care of," Richard Walker, associate dean of Students, said. Sandler on Sunday did not know if the victim had seen a counselor yet. Sandler has been in contact with Joseph Conte, residence coordinator at Hecht. Conte said that the'victim’s residential assistant was made aware of the assault, and that all residential assistants are trained to deal with See ASSAULT • Page 4 V
