Chart Notes:
   Unlike the other vintage college radio stars who have landed on the
College Air chart of late, Mission of Burma's entrance at #24 cannot be
called a return.  Even the classic "Academy Fight Song" never actually
charted.  The Boston band formed in 1980, but broke up in 1983, more than
twenty years ago.  And so, with "The Setup," Mission of Burma easily
establishes the record of longest wait for a hit song in college radio
history.  (Thanks, Matador, for helping make it possible.)
