Compiled from staff reports

Producers working on Marshall film title
Producers of a feature film about the
1970 Marshall University plane crash are trying to work out details that
will allow the movie's title to be taken from a school cheer.
The Parthenon, the Marshall student
newspaper, reported Tuesday that the Warner Brothers film will be called
``We Are ... Marshall.'' The campus paper cited a source at Warner Nrothers.
``We Are ... Marshall'' is a potential
title but the film's producers have said there are legal issues preventing
the cheer's use, according to WSAZ-TV.
``Once you see the movie you will
understand why Warner Brothers would want to call it 'We Are ...
Marshall,''' Marshall Vice President H. Keith Spears told The Parthenon.
The plane crash is considered the worst
sports disaster in history. Seventy-five players, coaches, supporters and
flight crew members were returning from a football game at East Carolina on
Nov. 14, 1970, when their chartered jet crashed short of the runway at
Tri-State Airport in Kenova.
The film deals with how the community
rebuilt after the tragedy, said producer Basil Iwanyk.
