2B Quick Looks --- Monday February 1, 1999 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (February 1) Work with a partner this year and you'll get more money than you ever dreamt possible. Try to do it alone and just the opposite will be true. February is best for making plans and inventing new products. March is for love and abundance, not necessarily in that order. In April, watch out for accidents. You don't want to learn things the hard way. The money will become available around September, and in November a career opportunity pops up. Investment is required for December. Aries: Today is a 7. Curb the urge to be impetuous today. Your lesson to be learned right now has to do with structure, discipline and obedience. If you choose that on purpose now, the rest of the week will be a lot easier. Taurus: Today is a 5. Don't take you for an answer, especially if it's the firs answer you get. You're known for your persistence, and today that's your winning attitude. A partner will also come in handy. He or she will be able to get through where your path is blocked. Don't give the valuables to somebody you can't trust. Gemini: Today is a 6. There's something at home you could do yourself and save quite a bit of money, if only you knew how. Well, guess what? You can learn — and soon. Today, get a good book on the subject. Cancer: Today is a 6. You're getting a bulwark concerning your career. A friend could give you a push in the right direction. You'd never ask for it, but you might as well accept it if it's there. You'll have to make an investment in your own future. Leo: Today is a 6. The competition is so tough today, you may want to compromise. Perhaps you can enroll your competitor into helping you. Sheer flattery could work wonders. The other person is apt to fall for just about anything you say, as long as it promotes and exerts his or her ideas. Virgo: Today is a 6. Sagittarius: Today is a 6. Scorpio: Today is a 6. You're better than most at keeping to your schedule, but complications beyond your control could prevent that from happening today. Try not to let somebody else's emergency get you rattled. The best you can do is exert your influence to make sure that everyone stays happy. Capricorn: Today is a 6. Libra: Today is a 6. It looks like just about everybody wants to tell you what to do. A little of that goes a long way with you anyway, but today you'll be in a rather testy mood. Who do they think they are, anyway? Who do they think you are, a servant? There will be lots of competition for your time today. Somebody you care about would love to dominate it, and you wouldn't mind that either. But there's work to be done. How about delegating some of your responsibilities instead? There could be a slight difference of opinion today between two people you respect. They're both very intelligent, but sometimes they can't see their own way out of a paper bag. Today, you're the referee. You get to help them come to a compromise and see the obvious. Aquarius: Today is a 6. Watch your money today. Don't let somebody talk you out of it without getting the very best possible deal. The better fight you put up, of course, the more likely that to happen. Don't feel like you'll make enemies by driving a hard bargain. Confer with your partner today about a purchasing decision. Figure out what you'd like, what you need, what you can do without, and ask your friend to do the same. By the time the meeting is through, it'll be clear what you can afford and where you should go next, which is the objective, of course. Pisces: Today is a 6. Your work may seem overwhelming today, but don't despair. You're learning lots of important things that you'll be able to use later, and something you're learning is going to lead to a lot more income. It's tough in the beginning, but the more you practice, the better you'll get at it. SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES The Jayhawk swimmers were defeated by Nebraska Friday night in Lincoln. The 15th-ranked Nebraska men defeated the Kansas men 144.5-98.5, and the Kansas women fell 152-89 to the eighth-ranked Nebraska women. Jayhawk swimmers toppled by Nebraska Despite the loss, the team had some top finishers. The men's team, now 0-3 in conference competition, had a win from junior Tyler Painter in the 500-meter and 1,000-meter freestyle. Sophomore Will Bernhardt took first in the 200-meter backstroke. Both Painter and Bernhardt had season-best times in the 1,000-meter freestyle and 200-meter backstroke, respectively. Second-place finishes included junior Brandon Chestnut in the 200-meter breaststroke, senior Trent Hartl in the 200-meter freestyle, junior Brian Klapper in the 200-meter butterfly and sophomore Jon Reves in the 1,000-meter freestyle. Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. The Kansas women, 2-1 in the Big 12, had two individual first-place finishers. Kerri Pribyl, junior, won the three-meter dive, and Adrienne Turner, senior, won the 200-meter butterfly. The 800-meter freestyle relay team also took first. Members were freshmen Carolyn Howitz, Molly O'Connor, Kim Waite and Turner, Kelley Smith, sophomore, took second and had her personal best time in the 1,000-meter freestyle. Senior Quincy Adams, after sitting out the Jan. 16 meet against Southern Illinois because of a hamstring injury, captured second place in the 200-meter breaststroke. Both the men and women will compete again at 2 p.m. Saturday in Robinson Natoratitor against Big 12 opponent Iowa State. It will be the last home meet for the women, but the men have a dual meet against Iowa at 2 p.m. Feb. 13. Emily Hughey Michael Allen, senior safety, was named Most Valuable Player at the Jayhawk football awards banquet Friday night after leading the team in total tackles for the 1998 season. Senior outside linebacker Patrick Brown was honored with the Don Fambrough Award. Captain awards were presented to Allen, Brown, Justin Glasgow and Zac Wegner. Michael Allen named team MVP at banquet The team co-captain had 120 tackles last fall, the second-best season total by a defensive back in school history. Allen also received the Willie Pless Tackler of the Year Award. Women's tennis match was a family affair Jenny Garrity, the Kansas women's tennis coach, and her sister, Kris Sell, the Kansas No. 1 singles player, couldn't rally the team to beat younger sister Kathy Sell and her Duke Blue Devils teammates. In the Jayhawks' spring season opener, Kansas was shut out 9-0 by the second-ranked Blue Devils. Duke improved to 1-1, while Kansas fell to 0-1. "We started off slow," Garrity said. "But we did a good job of not letting the first set bother us." Yesterday the Jayhaws played No. 10 William and Mary, which upset Duke Friday. Results were not available at press time. Kansan staff reports BOSTON — Don't get carried away by Boston's 2-0 record. After all, the wins came in exhibition games. The way Paul Pierce played in those games is a different story. In the two wins against Toronto, the rookie from Kansas had 35 points, 19 rebounds and nine steals. In Friday night's 120-99 victory, he had 21 points, 12 rebounds and five steals. And the Celtics open their season next Friday against the Raptors. Pierce shines in Celtics' first exhibition games "He's the truth — the real deal." Celtics point guard Kenny Anderson said. "The Raptors are a good team." Pierce said. "I know they were trying to play their entire roster. I'm sure next Friday they'll be a lot tougher." Pierce: Scored 35 points in two NBA exhibition games. They will still be facing an improved Celtics team that drafted Ron Mercer in 1997 and Pierce in 1998. And the fans should be more animated than the calm crowd that got free tickets and filled about three-quarters of the FleetCenter on Friday in the Celtics' first home game since the lockout ended. "Compared to last year in preseason, I think he's far ahead of me," Mercer said. "He's adjusting well to what we're doing." Pierce, the 10th player drafted after being projected to go as high as second, outplayed Toronto rookie Vince Carter, who was taken fifth. Carter had 20 points, but 13 of them came after Boston had taken a 103-78 lead. As a rookie, Mercer averaged 15.3 points and 3.5 rebounds per game. Pierce could surpass that. Pierce didn't focus on the comparison between him and Carter, but said, "I feel like I should have been one of the top players (drafted). So I want to go out and show them that this is what they're missing on. This is what you could have had." Jazz, Nuggets game: NBA Jayhawk reunion SALT LAKE CITY — At the same time the Utah Jazz lost the LaPhonzo Ellis free-agent derby, they showed why they might not need him after all. Ellis called Jazz owner Larry Miller during the first quarter of Utah's 108-90 exhibition win against Denver on Friday night to tell Miller he had decided to sign with the Atlanta Hawks. and strong in Western Conference titles. Former Jaihawks Greg Oostertag and Jacque Vaughn made limited contributions to the Jazz's effort. Oostertag was 1-1 from the field and finished with two points. Vaughn was 1-3 from the field and 2-2 from the free-throw line and finished with four points. But jugging from the Jazz's steady effort against an improved Nuggets team, Utah already has the chemistry to go for its third straight Western Conference title. The game was the beginning of a new era for the Nuggets, who likely will return only five players from last year's 1.1-7.1 team. Nick Van Exel, Chauncey Billups, Raef LaFrentz and Keon Clark all played their first games in a Denver uniform, and Mike D'Antoni made his coaching debut. LaFrentz: Scored four points in first NBA game. The debut of LaFrentz, a former Jayhawk, was unsteady. The third overall pick in last year's draft was 0-for-8 from the field, but he led the Nuggets with eight rebounds and was 4-4 from the free-throw line. Billups was just 2-for-9, but he have a teaching five sessions. The two teams will conclude their exhibition seasons with a rematch in Denver today. had a team-high five assists.
