Contra attacks push Ortega to stop cease-fire
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica - The Nicaraguan contrasts, weakened by a Central American peace agreement and reduced U.S. aid, may have lost their military and political momentum but not their determination to overthrow Daniel Ortega's Sandinista government.
Ortega's plan to break off a ceasefire with the contras disrupted Costa Rica's celebration of 100 years of democracy and led President Bush to hint Saturday about the possibility of using U.S. military aid for the rebels.
President Bush belittled the leftist Nicaraguan leader as "this little man — showing up in his military uniform at a democracy meeting," and said Ortega "looks like that unwanted animal at a garden party."
Ortega said he was ending the 19-
ragua on Feb. 25, Bush said, "The people of this hemisphere know the difference between real elections and sham elections, and the hemisphere will not settle for anything less than free and fair elections."
Five Central American presidents agreed Aug. 7 that the contra should be disbanded in exchange for democratic reforms in Nicaragua. The two presidents' contris to be voluntarily repatriated to their homeland by Dec. 8.
The contrasts, in turn, vowed not to disband quietly. They left their home bases in Honduras and began marching back into their homeland, carrying old weapons and dwindling stocks of ammunition.
"We're sure we'll be able to make sure the Sandinistas can't live in peace," said contra army commander Israel Galcano in a late August.
Galeano said then that the rebels would launch no offensive operations
Job scene looks OK for grads
By Stacy Smith Kansan staff writer
The job market looks fairly good for seniors graduating with degrees from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in December 1989 and May 1990, said James Henry, assistant director of the University Placement Center.
"It doesn't look too bad. We've had 40 or 50 companies come to interview this fall, and we expect 60 to 70 to come in the spring," he said. "Unless something drastic happens, I expect there to be a big job market in the future."
Henry said that all majors were in demand but that an ability to communicate well was the most important quality employers were looking for.
"The employers look beyond majors. They're looking for people with communication skills," he said, as he showed an apparent themselves during interviews."
Rivalry has produced many memorable moments

Kansas defeated Kansas State 55-0 in 1947 in the most lopsided game between the two rivals since the series began in the early 1900s, but the rivalry has produced many other memorable games.
The rivalry dates to 1902. Kansas and K-State have met every year except 1910 when Kansas considered dropping its football program in consideration of rugby.
This year's game in Manhattan will be the 87th meeting between the two teams and is the 15th longest series in Division I football.
Kansas enters the game with a 58-23-8
loss to Cincinnati. The team has won six
from the past 10 and tied once.
The Jayhawks have a 2-5 overall record and 0-4 in the Big Eight while K-State is 1-6 and 0-4.
The Wildcats first victory was not until 1908 when K-State won 6-4 at Manhattan.
"You have friends up there and they have
down here down there," he said, a fun,
baking song for doth schools.
Hon John Hadi, Kansas coach and former All-America running back and quarterback at Kansas, said that the rivalry was just as strong when he played from 1959-61.
The next Wildcat victory in the series was not until 1924 when the Jayhawks went 2-5-1 that season and lost to K-State 6-0 at Manhattan.
In the first eight seasons up to 1910,
Kansas lost just one game.
Bob Nelson, program manager for conferencing and programming in the Division of
The first game between the two schools was in 1902. The Jayhawks won at Lawrence 16-0.
Continuing Education, has seen more than 40 of the K-State-Kansas football games in the last 50 years.
Nelson said three games stood out in his mind. A loss in 1933, a tie in 1966 and a win in 1982.
The 27-6 loss in 1939, Nelson remembers because it was the first K-State-Kansas game he watched. The Jayhawks won just two games that season.
longest run in Kansas history, Riggins rushed for 189 yards in that game.
The first game in Memorial Stadium, Oct.
29, 1921, was a 21-7 Kansas victory against
K-State in 1921.
The single best rushing performance against the Wildcats was by Kerwin Bell in 1980. Bell rushed for 216 yards helping Kansas to a two point victory 20-18.
The best total offensive performance by

The game in 1839 ended in a 3-3 tie because of a last minute field goal by Kansas kicker Thermas Butler. With four seconds remaining, Butler kicked a 38-yard field goal.
"I don't know why he went in to kick," Nelson said. "I think it was the only field goal he ever kicked."
The memorable victory for Nelson was in 1968 when John Riggins was the Kansas running back and Pepper Johnson was the coach.
That team went 9-2, won the Big Eight Conference and went to the Orange Bowl where the Jayhawks lost to Penn State 15-14.
Kansas against K-State was 615 yards in 1950. The Jayhawks rushed for 417 yards and threw for 148.
The best defensive performance was in 1961 as Kansas gave up just 35 yards. The Wildcats rushed for a -10 yards and threw for only 45.
Against the Wildcats in 1968, Riggins produced the longest rush from scrimmage in a K-State-Kansas game.
The rivalry perhaps took on a different meaning when then Gov. Robert Docking established the Governor's Cup in 1969. The winner of the annual K-State-Kansas game.
The run of 83 yards is also the fourth
Kansas has claimed the trophy 13 times to the Wildcats' six. The cup went unclaimed in 1985 when the two teams played to a 17-17 tie.
"That game, (in 1885) was the biggest nothing game I ever saw." Nelson said.
"Neither team was very good that year, and both teams made a zillion mistakes," he said.
Perhaps even bigger nothing games were in 1916 and 1923 when both zames ended 0-0.
The riots that surrounded this annual game have been prevelant longer than just the last few years Nelson said.
It is apparent the Manhattan is getting ready for another riot as police forces are preparing to deploy the force.
The biggest riot in recent years occurred in 1986 when K-State pulled off an upset, winning 29-12.
That riot ended with Aggleville, a shopping and adjoining to U-State's campus in Springfield.
"It just goes to show you what this game means to students at the two schools," Nelson said.
K-State coach Bill Snyder said that "it is the nature of a Saturday afternoon in Bldg 710."
Kansas coach Glen Mason is a little tentative about going to Manhattan for the annual rivalry.
"They just don't put up riot fences for nothing." Mason said. "I tell ya, I'm a little scared to go over there. I'm going to ask my equipment manager for a helmet."
Snyder, in his first season with the wildcats, said he was unsure whether he would win. The defense was good.
"Every game is important for us at this stage in our program," he said.
"I'm not sure I understand it." Mason said. "There are those certain built in rivalries, and this is one of those rivalries. But, reporters don't ask so many questions about it if it wasn't a big deal."
Coach Hadl said it was no different as a player then as a coach. "The feeling is the same. It is exciting to be a part of it.
"It is sort of like a brotherly fight," he said.
