Lebanese pick new president, plan for peace
The Associated Press
KLEIAT, Lebanon — Lebanese lawmakers yesterday elected a Christian president and approved a peace plan designed to end 14 years of civil war, despite threats by a Christian general to punish them for "conspiracy."
Parliament elected deputy Rene Mouawad, a 32-year veteran of Lebanese politics and a 64-year-old Monrote Christian. Legislators first stripped the president of some power, giving more authority to Muslim leaders.
Fifty-two of Parliament's 73 surviving lawmakers voted for Mouawad in a second ballot of the special session. Six members abstained.

Drive for memorial kicks off
By Stacy Smith Kansan staff writer
The ROTC units kicked off a fund-raising drive on Saturday to collect money to build a Korean War Memorial at the University of Kansas.
Cadets and midshipmen from the three ROTC branches took donations after the Kansas-Oklahoma State University football game to raise money for the memorial.
The fund-raising kickoff was part of KU ROTC Day, which also included a fly-by of four F-16 fighter planes before the game, a pre-game march and rife team demonstration by the three ROTC branches.
"Our goal is to try to have a memorial in place within two years on Veterans' Day Nov. 11.

Page says she could go overseas and play if she wanted.
Arnold is not just waiting for her career to end, however. She still has some goals to accomplish.
"It would be something different," she says. "I still have a semester left, though."
"I want another Big Eight ring," she says. "I hope my fondest memory is this year. I want to win (the Big Eight) again and go on to do the best any team has done."
