HOROSCOPES
Aries: Today is an 8.
Travel looks good. You may have to do a few errands close to home, too. Your team backs you up, and maybe even comes along on the journey. Are you going on a road trip? No problem. You're looking good. It'll work out fine.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
You're most likely thinking about money. How to make more and spend less? If you're not already in a creative line of work, maybe you should find a job like that. When you're happy, saving comes easily. Do what you love today, and the money will follow.
Gemini: Today is a 9.
You could have a successful day. There could be a slight ego battle, however. The other person tries to teach you something that you can't see. You're going to be amazed and amused when you figure out what it is. This will be fun, so don't fight it!
Cancer; Today is a 6.
Today serving others is a key factor, as is serving yourself. Are you caring for yourself as well as you're caring for others? Listen to somebody else's advice about what you should do for your own well-being. Put in the correction.
Leo: Todav is a 9.
Your focus is on love. A lot of it's going around.
Everybody wants your attention, and that could cause problems. They're good problems though, so you'll solve them all easily.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
More work may come in, and that's good. It means you get to work overtime, and that could be good, too. Unfortunately, the family misses you! Promise you'll play with them soon and schedule it in!
Libra: Today is an 8.
Education is your upcoming theme. You're interested ed in so many topics that you may not know which to study first. You could be highly stimulated, and also confused! Make an outline first so you can make sense of all this!
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
If you're trying to borrow, you may be able to get some of it from an older relative. Or, maybe you can increase your income somehow. Ask the one who signs your checks. You may encounter difficulties getting a loan, but if you persevere, you can succeed.
Sagittarius: Today is an 8.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
You're in a growth phase. You're taking on more responsibility, and maybe even getting more freedom. Self-expression is a function of responsibility, you know. Go ahead and stir things up. Even if a controversy erupts, it'll be interesting.
You have to pay attention on different levels. There's the hands-on stuff, of course, but there's also a lot of wheeling and dealing going on behind the scenes. You can do well, but only if you watch the overview, as well as the details. Enjoy!
Aquarius: Today is an 8.
Pisces: Today is a 7.
Romance, games and children are in the spotlight for the next few weeks. You might get to take a trip soon, too. Take along the whole gang if you can. You may not be able to do this all day, but have as much fun as you can.
Things are changing, and you're right in the middle of it. You might even be causing some of it. You want to end up with a better arrangement than you had before. You want your dreams to come true. Look for the financing first.

Doug Pacey
KANSAS BASEBALL Missouri standout says he'll play for 'Hawks
The Kansas baseball team must have a thing for pitchers.
Seven players have signed to play for the Jahyah next year, and four
of them were left- handed pitchers. A right-handed pitcher has also signed, as have two infielders.
Tyson Bothof signed his national letter-of-intent to
play for Kansas yesterday. Bothof, a 6-foot4 right-handed pitcher, is a senior at Fort Zumwalt South High School in St. Peters, Mo. While he

boasts a strong arm, Kansas coach Bobby Randall said he recruited him because of his all-around athleticism. He has been a standout athlete, lettering twice in baseball, basketball and football. He was an honorable-mention all-conference selection in football while leading his team to a conference title and two district championships.
"Tyson is a quality three-sport athlete who will strengthen our pitching corps," Randall said. "We are pleased to add another versatile athlete to our list of newcomers."

Allen eager for starting receivers to return
offense.
Allen couldn't help but smile at the thought of the improvement, coupled with 16 returning starters, including most of the skill position players and three of the Jayhawks' fastest wide receivers.
"With the speed returning, if you will, I feel comfortable that we will be able to throw the football." Allen said.
Another year of development for quarterback Dylen Smith will be beneficial as well. Smith couldn't practice with the team until August because he was fulfilling requirements to be
able to attend Kansas. He spent the rest of the season familiarizing himself with the Kansas offense.
"I was pleased with how I did this year, but I think next year with more time I should be even better," Smith said.
Despite being thrown into the offense, Smith completed one of the most successful years for a Kansas quarterback since Mark Williams in 1995. He finished with 1,599 passing yards and 12 touchdown passes, the best totals since Williams was part of 10-2 Kansas team that won the Aloha Bowl.
The emergence of running back
Moran Norris and two redshirt running backs Reggie Duncan and Harold McClendon will make the running back position even deeper than this year, when the 'Hawks had four running backs with more than 400 yards for the first time since 1991.
In all, Allen said it was an up-and-down season, but progression toward becoming a better football team made Allen wish that in a way, the season still was going.
"If we would have been able to have about six preseason games and then start the season, then we probably could have been a bowl team," he said.

Chandler finishes 10th in career receptions

now. He has graduation to think about — and if nothing else, finding a real job.
"I'm not ready for that," he said. "I'll have to start out slow and work into that kind of thinking." And though this season didn't end with a bowl game or a victory against Kansas State — two things Chandler said he wanted out of this season more than anything else — he said he hopes his legacy, and that of the senior class, continues into next year's
football team.
"I hope that once it's over, we're seen as a tough bunch of kids," he said. "Maybe we didn't have the most talent, but we played tough. I think that pushed people to work a little bit harder."
He ends his career with 82 career receptions, tied for 10th all time at Kansas. He is 15th in career reception yardage with 1,050 yards. Chandler said he was happy he could leave with his name in the record books, but he knows some of those marks may not last.
"I told Harrison Hill that he ain't 10th all time yet," Chandler said. "But he'll probably be up there. This group of guys we have right now, they're going to do some things."
Chandler credits football for his sanguine attitude toward his difficulties.
"It makes you stronger and makes you persevere and overcome those bad things," he said. "I mean, for everything that's happened to me, I have no regrets."
