Old Navy, OfficeMax to open stores
By Katring Hull

Kansan staff writer
Students looking for paper clips and capri pants soon will have two new suppliers.
Both OfficeMax and Old Navy have signed agreements this month to open stores on South Iowa Street.
The two national retailers have reserved spaces in the Pine Ridge Plaza at the northeast corner of 33rd and Iowa streets next to Kohl's Department Store, 3240 Iowa. Neither store has announced an opening date.
For Maggie Erickson, Old Navy shopper and Houston junior, a Lawrence store will save
her a trip to Topeka or Kansas City to purchase trendy, casual clothing at a reasonable price.
"The prices are better and more affordable for college students," Erickson said. "It's the same variety as the Gap but more affordable." Old Navy is owned by Gap Inc., a San Francisco-based company. At the end of January, Old Navy had 513 stores in the United States.
Erickson said she thought an Old Navy would fare well in Lawrence because it would attract University of Kansas students.
OfficeMax will occupy a space west of Kohl's and just down the road from another discount office supply store, Office Depot, 2525 Iowa.
OfficeMax Inc. is an Ohio-based company that operates 946 stores in 49 states, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Office Depot, based in Florida, operates 829 stores in 46 states and Canada.
Along with value-priced clothing and discount office supplies, the two national chains will bring more competition to the Lawrence retail market.
The Old Navy store will sit north of Kohl's, a department store that sells name brand clothing at value prices. Wisconsin-based Kohl's only operates about 300 stores nationwide.
Phil Dahl, Kohl's assistant manager, said that the Kohl's in Overland Park was in the same shopping center as Old Navy and that
the Old Navy helped to attract more business to Kohl's. However, in Lawrence, the market is more diverse with Wal-Mart, Super Target, Big Kmart and J.C. Penney's all located on South Iowa Street.
"In this case, we already have so much diversity that I can't imagine Old Navy would hurt us any more than the existing competition." Dahl said.
Keith McWatters, Office Depot manager, said that he didn't know what effect more competition would have on the Lawrence office-supply market but that Office Depot had loyal customers.
"All I can say is that competition is always good," McWatters said.

Story by Warisa Chulindra
Biology 100 was one of My Truong's first classes at the University of Kansas.
"It was terrible," said My, a 26-year-old Lawrence senior. "It was in a big auditorium in Haworth with more than 100 people. The professor showed slides and kent talking."
My had more trouble adjusting than most freshmen. She didn't speak much English when she emigrated from Saigon, Vietnam, to Lawrence in 1991 with her parents — Dan Lee Truong and Muoi Chieu — and seven brothers and sisters — Mindy, Wendy, Kevin, Alan, Derek, Andy and Brandon.
There were other problems. In Vietnam, her teachers wrote class notes on the chalkboard. To understand her KU biology class, My was forced to read ahead or be lost. She recorded her classes and listened to them on tape at night.
In 1990, the U.S. Census reported that Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders made up 3 percent — 2,581 people — of Douglas County's population of 81,798 people. Of those 3 percent, 96 were Vietnamese and 1,005 were Chinese.
Between 1990 and 1998, the number of Asian Americans increased by 967 people, while Douglas County's population swelled to 91.093.
In Lawrence, two families — the Truongs and the Chieus, who have both Chinese and Vietnamese ancestry — form a large chunk of the Asian-American community. Following Vietnamese tradition, My's mother kept her maiden name. During the last decade, the two families have helped to build a local Chinese-Vietnamese community that puts education before material possessions, work before play and family before just about everything.
This month, My will walk down Campanile hill with a degree in business administration
with an emphasis in information systems. As a graduate, she'll join her brother Andy, who earned a degree in electrical engineering last year. Her cousin Dung Chieu also will graduate this year. Five of her cousins are following her by attending the University.
Despite My's early struggles, she never
"I're ready to go," My said. "I'm ready to graduate. I felt sad because I didn't graduate when I was younger. Now it doesn't matter because I've got my own knowledge and my own degree."

Police find homeless man dead in alley

Kansas staff writer
A hit-and-run early Friday morning killed a 38-year-old homeless man.
Lawrence police found John Lowe's body around 2:30 a.m. near the Community Garden Project behind the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said the man was struck by a vehicle in an alley behind a brightly painted storage shed and dragged half a block and around a corner.
Lowe carried no identification, Wheeler said, but police identified him by fingerprints.
Wheeler said that because the vehicle did not stop, investigators were trying to piece together what happened.
All the police know now, Wheeler said, is that Lowe was hit by an automobile and dragged to the place police found him - in the gutter along Mississippi Street south of Ninth Street.
Wheeler said autopsy results likely would be available today and might paint a better picture of what happened. Police think Lowe might have been sleeping in the alley at the time.
Tavniah Betts, a manager at Community Mercantile, said that she did not work Thursday evening but that she often saw small groups of homeless people sitting near the community garden.
She didn't know whether Lowe was one of them.
Police don't know who might have been driving the vehicle that struck Lowe. If the driver is apprehended, he or she could face a range of charges.
Wheeler said a murder charge was possible if the driver intended to hit Lowe.

An article in Friday's *Kansan misquoted Provost David Shulenburger. Shulenburger said the University of Kansas was the only Research I institution in the state, a special classification designated by the Cargiegh Foundation based on the number of doctoral degrees, study programs and federal funds a university has. The article also mistreated the number of University of Kansas Medical Center employees ranked in the top 25 highest-paid state employees. Twenty-two of the top 25 are affiliated with the Med Center.

KU students to reuite with Hillcrest graduates
KU journalism students will honor at 5:30 p.m. today Free State and Lawrence high school graduates who attended Hilcrest Elementary School.
Hillcrest and one of the promotional writing classes in the School of Journalism began a partnership in 1987, when this year's high school seniors were in kindergarten. Successive classes of college students followed the Hillcrest students' activities and accomplishments through the sixth grade.
About 50 Hillcrest graduates have been invited to return to Hillcrest and reunit with their former elementary school teachers and meet with KU students who are in the promotional writing class.
The seniors will plant a tree in the Hillcrest butterfly gardens, leave hand prints in a concrete block and donate an item for a time capsule to be opened at a 10-year reunion.
"It will be a great opportunity to see how the students worked with older people," said Karin Borke, a Storm Lake, Iowa, sophomore who will attend the ceremony.

Suspect in killing spree had history of illness
PITTSBURGH — The man arrested in a killing spree that left three immigrants, a Jewish woman and a Black man dead had a history of mental illness and irrational fears that he was being watched, a former friend and his attorney said.
Police searching the home where Richard Scott Baumhammers, 34, lived prior to Friday's attacks also found a three-page manifesto indicating that he was trying to form a political party opposed to immigration, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.
The document, which included Baumhammers' signature as chairman of The Free Market Party, advocated the rights of European-Americans and denounced immigrants from Third World nations, according to a prosecution source whom the newspaper didn't name.
Clinton proposes reforms in information sharing
YPSILANTI, Mich. — American consumers run too many risks as they unwittingly divulge growing amounts of personal and financial information, President Clinton said yesterday as he proposed reforms in the way banks, insurers and other corporations share information about their customers.
"From what I saw and from what I read, it seemed to advocate violence," the source said.
"No one should have to worry that the results of their latest physical exam can deny them a home mortgage or a credit card." Clinton said during a commencement address at Eastern Michigan University.

Giuliani to stay in race despite cancer, aide save
NEW YORK — Rudolph Giuliani's campaign manager expects his candidate to stay in the U.S. Senate race because his prostate cancer has not spread.
"It's not only my hope, but my expectation, that he will run." Bruce Teitelbaum said. "Hopefully he'll pick a course of treatment that will give him a cure, a complete cure and then we'll be able to move forth aggressively, with a winning campaign. That's our hope, and I know the mayor shares my opinion."
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said yesterday that he, too, saw the Republican mayor of New York staying in the race against first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.
"I'm confident that he will be back," McCain said. "The odds are overwhelming that he'll be fine and that he will be very active, and I believe he'll win."
very likely that McCain has offered to campaign for Giuliani while the mayor meets with doctors. But McCain said he's sure Giuliani, who was playing golf yesterday with his son, will be campaigning again soon.
Teitelbaum said the mayor won't make a decision on cancer treatment or the campaign for 10 days to two weeks.
WORLD Israeli-Palestinian talks aim for permanent peace
EILAT, Israel — Israeli-Palestinian peace talks resumed yesterday in this Red Sea resort amid bitter Palestinian protests about the disclosure that Israel intends to build 174 new homes at a Jewish settlement on the West Bank.
A trust-building gesture planned by Prime Minister Ehud Barak — handing Arab suburbs of Jerusalem to the Palestinians — was in doubt as hawkish Israeli Cabinet ministers said they would oppose it. Barak had hoped the handover would show that Israel was serious about the talks. Despite the tense atmosphere, negotiators ended the day's session with a group-collash in the hotel.
WORLD
U. S. Mideast envoy Dennis Ross was to join the negotiators Tuesday, and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was to visit the region in six to eight weeks to push along the lagging talks.
The negotiations are aimed at achieving a framework for a permanent peace between Israel and the Palestinians, along with agreement on the scale and location of the third and final troop withdrawal that Israel has promised to make. Negotiators are to remain secluded in a hotel until a recess Tuesday to mark Israel's national day of mourning for victims of the Holocaust.

Crackdown continues on Iranian reformists
Head of student group two newspaper editors interrogated, put in jail
TEHRAN, Iran — The head of Iran's largest reformist student group was jailed yesterday in a widening crackdown by hard-liners, who reportedly also are seeking to remove two top pro-reform Cabinet ministers.
All Afshari, head of the Office for Fostering Unity, was sent into detention after several hours of questioning by the Revolutionary Court in Tehran, said officials of the student group, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The Associated Press
Conservatives in the Islamic clerical regime have during the past two weeks closed down 16 newspapers, arrested two journalists and questioned numerous reform activists in a backlash to preserve their power against the increasingly strong pro-democracy movement.
it was not clear if Afshari was charged with any crime. Judicial officials were not immediately available for comment.
Newspapers reported yesterday that the outgoing parliament, which is controlled by hard-liners, has summoned Culture Minister Atoailah Mohajerani and Interior Minister Abdolvahed Mousavi Lari, both leading supporters of reform, to face impeachment proceedings.
face impurement proceedings
The student leader Afshari and two newspapers
editors — all staunch allies of popular President Mohammad Khatami — were questioned by the court about their presence at a conference earlier this month in Berlin, where slogans criticizing Iran's religious government were chanted.
The editors — Ezatotallah Sahabi of Iran-e-Farda magazine and Hamid-Reza Jailaipour of the Asr-e-Azadegan daily — were freed after their interrogations. Both of their publications have been banned.
After his release, Jalaipour said the court told him that his participation at the Berlin conference was an act against Iran's security and that he had propagated against the Islamic Republic.
that he阶阶our said the men had tried to defend the ongoing reforms at the conference, but they were attacked by anti-government Iranians in exile.
On Saturday, the same court arrested two women reformists for attending the Berlin conference. A third woman activist, Jamileh Kadivar, the wife of Culture Minister Mohajerani, has been asked to appear in court today for questioning, Jalaiapour said.
"It's a strange situation. Abroad, we are attacked by anti-revolutionaries as agents of the Islamic establishment in Iran, and at home they attack us as agents of the enemies," Jalapour said.

Mohajerani has allowed the pro-democracy press to flourish since Khatami's 1997 election and narrowly survived an impeachment vote last year.

Events raise money to help fight AIDS
By Jessie Meyer writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
About 170 Lawrence residents and KU students joined the fight against AIDS at the 10th annual "Walk for Health" on Saturday morning.
"It was a perfect day all around," said Lisa Miller, co-chair for the AIDS walk, which raises money for the Douglas County AIDS Project. "We had the walkers, we had the support and we got some money. We couldn't have asked for a better day."
The five-kilometer walk, which started and ended at South Park, 1141 Massachusetts St., raised about $7,600 for the Douglas County project, which was more than last year's total of $7,200. But organizers were aiming for $8,000, Miller said. But, she also said late donations could come in the next few days.
Sidney Hardgrave, executive director of the Douglas County AIDS project, said all of the money raised from the event would stay in Douglas County and help pay for the costs of running the non-profit organization.
Many members from the University of Kansas' Greek community participated in the walk, which wrapped up their spring philanthropy event and helped raise AIDS awareness in the community.
"A lot of people came out for a good cause," said R.J. Woodring, Interfraternity Council vice president for philanthropy and community service, whose recent resignation from office will go into effect today. "We've struggled with getting Greeks out there in the past, but this year there were representatives from almost every chapter."
"It was a perfect day all around. We had the walkers, we had the effort and we got some money. We couldn't have asked for a better day."
Lisa Miller Walk for Health co-chair
The main event for the fraternities and sororities was the third-annual spaghetti dinner, where about 400 people were served Wednesday night.
Nicole Schnellbacher, Panhellenic spring philanthropy chair, said last year's dinner raised about $3,500 and the goal for this year was $4,000. Although this year's all-you-caneat dinner only raised about $1,200, Woodring said it was still a success.
"We try to do things to benefit the greek community and the community as a whole," Woodring said. "The success of the spaghetti dinner and the AIDS walk reflects all the things we can do when we focus on the positive things."
All money from the dinner also will go to the Douglas County AIDS Project.
But Miller said the work the greek community did for the Douglas County AIDS Project had much more than a monetary impact.
"It's a big group of people we touch indirectly and directly." Miller said. "People don't often like to think about HIV and AIDS, but it's out there and getting the information out is one of the primary goals."

"I don't want to touch it!" was heard many times as parents urged their children to touch bullfrogs and bobcat pelts at the Baker University Wetlands Field Day yesterday.
The field day, sponsored by Earth We Are, a Baker environmental organization, and the Jayhawk Audubon Chapter, included 16 stations that provided information about the wetlands and the animals that inhabit it.
Children and adults were encouraged to learn about live animals, such as snapping turtles and milk snakes that were caught from the wetlands that morning. Despite one child's fears, the animals were released into the wetlands at the end of the day.

Seventy percent of the Earth's endangered species live in wetlands.
Another station showed potential threats to the wetlands, including a natural gas line that runs under the environs, Gallegos said. Plant growth that is trimmed for the convenience of utility workers can have a negative impact on the wetlands, which the Oregon Trail once ran through.
Not all of the wetlands were lush and green. One area had been burned two weeks ago to encourage new growth, said Marti Schroeder, a biology student at Baker.
dent at Baker:
"If you burn it mid-April, it's the best way to get those warm-weather grasses growing," she said. Schroeder is part of a prairie wetland ecology class that meets at the wetlands one class a week and does extracurricular
work at the wetlands
"We do a lot of maintenance out here." Schroeder said. "We spend a lot of extra time out here."
Although the class learns about all types of wetlands, Schroeder said much of the students' work was focused on wetlands like those in Kansas.
She said this was the eighth year for the field day, although last year's was rained out. Usually about 400 people turn out, Jan Boyd said, and 20 minutes into the event 90 people had walked though the gates at 35th Street and Haskell Avenue.
Although there used to be many, the Baker University wetlands are the last wetlands in the Wakarusa Valley, said Jan Boyd, a librarian at Baker. Boyd said her husband Roger Boyd, a Baker professor, had started the field day because of his interest in the wetlands.
"It's a lot of interest, what's behind those gates," she said. "It's really good for the little kids."

Watkins scholarship hall residents wait for judge's decision in trust case
Thirteen residents of Watkins Scholarship Hall still don't know whether they can take Bank of America to trial for the management of the trust fund that pays for maintaining their home.
Douglas County District Judge Jack A. Murphy heard arguments from lawyers for the bank and the residents Friday and took the case under advisement
took the case. The judge gave the bank 20 days to file a response to the residents' brief, and David J. Brown, the residents' attorney, said a decision probably would be reached in about a month.
Jim Rankin, the bank's attorney, argued that the residents were not beneficiaries of the trust and had no standing to object to how it was managed.
"This is just vexatious litigation," he said. "All this harassment has cost a great deal of money. I can't explain why the bank has been the victim in these
Rankin said activists had been agitating about the management of the trust for years.
years of hostility, but it's time for it to stop."
He asked the judge to order the objecting residents to pay the bank's costs and attorney fees.
Rankin said that Elizabeth Miller Watkins established a charitable trust and that its true beneficiary was the University of Kansas.
"It's a charitable trust only because the beneficiary is an educational institution."he said.
tion. he said.
Rankin said that Kansas law didn't allow members of the public to enforce a charitable trust — only the Kansas Attorney General can do that. Rankin said the reason was to prevent wasting trust money on pointless litigation.
Rankin said that any argument residents might have was with the University and that the University had answered residents' concerns.
Brown disagreed. He said his clients were asking what the bank feared. The bank's annual reports didn't answer their questions, he said. They just wanted to know why the bank was sending trust income to the University, which doesn't even own the buildings.
And Brown said his clients wanted to know why the University deposited the trust income with the Kansas University Endowment Association.
"There's a slush fund of some one million dollars deposited with the Endowment Association," Brown said.
But the buildings are deteriorating, he said, and his clients say to live there.
said, and his clients pay rent to live there. Answering residents' questions would have been far less costly to the bank than a court battle, Brown said.
Residents also may argue that the University is not following Elizabeth Miller Watkins' direction that the halls be operated for the benefit of impoverished students, Brown said.
He said hall residents were beneficiaries of the trust.
Brown argued that Kansas law permitted individuals with a special interest in a charitable trust to go to court to enforce it.
"My clients, as residents of the hall, have a fixed interest," he said. "They live there."
Rankin called a letter to the editor of the Lawrence Journal-World on the issue rude, offensive and possibly actionable.

Kaw River an important resource should be revitalized immediately
Passing from South to North Lawrence on Massachusetts Street involves crossing the Kansas River on a bridge that paints picturesque images of the waters of the Kaw shooting past below.
Below this greeting-card image lies a problem — one that KU Environs addressed at the Earth Day forum on April 20th.
The Kansas, or Kaw, River, one of the state's most beautiful natural resources, is dangerously polluted. As one of the nation's most polluted rivers, activists have worked to enact legislation and bring this problem to the forefront of public and environmental policy.
The river's pollution and the need for this concern to be addressed immediately by Lawrence residents and the Legislature is one that simply cannot
Sand dredging has damaged the river irreparably; further damage is inexcusable
wait, as the correct thing to do is clear. Industrial and agricultural practices cannot stand in the way of the revitalization of the river, which under current conditions is in violation of the Clean Water Act.
Its not a matter of ideals. Its an issue of
legality — a clear and overwhelming
intriguation of our rights to healthy
drinking water.
It's an issue of great resonance in our campus community and nationally. Recently, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., speaking on the KU campus about the need for
persistence in seeking environmental preservation and awareness, encouraged the audience to take stock in one of the state's greatest national resources. Kennedy urged a more fevered environment of legal action against policy makers and pesticide companies responsible for the poor quality and pollution of the river's waters.
In-river sand dredging already has damaged irreparably the Kansas River itself. The atrazines used in certain pesticide practices are ingested through our drinking water at unacceptable levels as runoff from crops empties directly into the river.
KU students and the community in general should take an active and immediate role in the rescue of the Kaw, and the improvement of our water supply.

Drug companies should be evaluated
The idea of a welfare state angers many Americans. Why, some ask, should taxpayers foot the bill for others who can fund for themselves? While the 104th Congress repealed much of the litany of welfare statutes, it allowed corporate welfare to escape its gaze.
In no industry is this more apparent than in the pharmaceutical industry. It makes millionaires out of entrepreneurs and scientists and all the while gets subsidized for its trouble. To be sure, these subsidies need to be reviewed.
A recent New York Times article outlined how pharmaceutical companies have been allowed to reap substantial profits from government-funded research. The common argument to support these subsidies is that they advance scientific knowledge and further the well-being of mankind. While this holds merit, it is important to ask why medicine prices must skyrocket to further our well-being.
For an industry so lucrative, isn't there enough payoff absent government subsidies?
A recent report shows that pharmaceutical prices are outpacing inflation. For an industry so lucrative, isn't there enough payoff absent government subsidies? And if not, why doesn't the United
States get to share in the abundant riches created by subsidized discoveries?
Either way, the drug companies have been allowed to conduct an odd sort of risk-free entrepreneurship. The government pays for the research, and the company reaps all the monetary reward. At the same time, that company gouges the consumer.
The research that accompanies these advancements in the pharmaceutical industry must be encouraged. But can't we hold the companies accountable for setting reasonable prices? In the end, they still will profit. And with these reasonable profits, our tax money will be well-spent.

Student elections have high stakes in Palestine
Political life is buzzing here at Birzeit, Palestine, as the university wraps up the single most anticipated event of the year student council elections. Campus political parties organize elaborate campaigns full of the rhetorical power, mudslinging and fanfare characteristic of many government elections.
Students are free to discuss politics as they wish and to consider the issues most relevant to student life without the fear of arrest by the Palestinian National Authority, which is notorious for cracking down on students who criticize the ruling body. The most active students even temporarily change their place of residence for fear of arrest by the Israeli government. Discussions about the Middle East peace process and

Palestine's future as a state rule party agendas.
State's future as a state rule party agenda.
The elections come at a particularly interesting time as the Palestinian Authority Chairman, Yassir Arafat, just completed a trip to the United States to step up negotiations about the region with President Clinton. Press coverage of the meetings suggested that the results were largely positive and that negotiations are to continue.
For a number of people, particularly Arafat, the trend of students voting for the Islamic Bloc is alarming. (It is even rumored that Arafat pressured the administration to cancel the elections for fear of another victory for the Islamic parties.) I was overwhelmed to hear the Islamic parties chanting "CIA! CIA!" during a debate among the candidates, accusing Shabiba of collaborating with the U.S. secret service. One party from the left wing even went as far as publishing the names of students suspected to be members of Fateh Security Forces, or secret police.
But direct quotes from Washington suggested that the United States is smarting at the Palestinian pronouncement to establish a state throughout the entire West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem, lost during the 1967 war. One senior U.S. official was quoted as saying, "Nobody can obtain 100 percent of what he asks for." Simultaneously, Arafat hopes to declare the existence of a Palestinian state before the end of 2000.
The students of Birzeit University, one of the political hot spots of the Occupied Territories, also are wary of reports that reflect negotiations as outright positive. Students have heard promises about the country's sovereignty in the past. Many students blame the party currently controlling the Palestinian National Authority, Fateh, of which Arafat is the leader, for the lack of an official state.
It is unclear what these voting trends represent in terms of Palestine's future. What the elections do represent, however, is the democratic process at its best. The elections represent a democratic breakdown of votes with seats allocated to parties depending on how many votes each party receives. It takes about 51 votes for a party to earn one seat of the 51 total seats in the Student Council.
Students are compelled by the argument that the status quo will never bring statehood as Arafat consistently buckles down in the face of the United States and Israeli pressure. Students point to the 1993 Oslo Accords as proof of their disappointment, which only gave Palestinians some level of autonomy — but not full sovereignty — within the territories.
In answer, Birzeit students have been increasing their support steadily for the Islamic parties during the last four years. The three Islamic parties have continued to gain more seats in the Student Council, overshadowing Shabiba, the Fatehs youth movement and the left wing parties, which range from the Communist to Democratic factions.
In addition, student elections at Birzeit represent a hopeful future for the nation of Palestine, in which critique of the system is embraced and there always is pressure on those in power to change things for the better. The elections at Birzeit provide the necessary forum to critique the status quo and to dream about how to change the system for the better.

Pets are not textbooks, shouldn't be disposed of
The end of the spring semester marks much more than the beginning of the summer for thousands of University of Kansas students. It's the start of a new career, a departure to a far-away vacation spot or a journey back to the hometown to visit friends and family.
But the exodus from college campuses in Lawrence and across the country marks an end for others, for companions and friends that have seen many students through the academic year our pets
While students countdown to the summer and dream of what may come, employees at humane societies across the country prepare for the worst season of the year that begins in May and ends in October, hitting a peak in the summer, the natural breeding season for animals.
P
Unfortunately, the employees have no reason to believe that this year will be any different than previous years. It's a disgusting, recurring cycle — a form of cruelty to animals students don't often consider. Students finish
Lor O'Toole columnist opinion@kansan.com
their finals, turn in their papers and keys and leave town quickly. And students turn in about 25 animals every May to the humane society while employees find about 25 more abandoned in houses, apartments and yards in the area. Sure, many of these and the average of 700 to 800 other animals dropped off at the shelter find homes. But in Lawrence, about one in four dogs and one in three cats left at the humane society must be killed by lethal infection.
And Lawrence isn't alone. The Wichita Eagle reported last summer that three out of every four unwanted animals dropped off at area shelters were killed — about 9,000 during the summer of 1998. And last year in Baldwin, a town 20 miles away from Lawrence, shelters took in four times as many animals in June and July as they did in January, February and March combined.
For college students, the excuses for giving up their pets during this time of year often include travel complications or parents and landlords
who won't allow the animals in their houses. But the problem exists when there are hundreds of students with excuses like these — however valid they may seem.
This problem could be helped if students who really don't have the means to support pets or can't afford pets would wait until it's more practical to adopt one or more. For example, last summer a co-worker of mine, a recent college graduate, was far away from her friends and family and lonely. So she sucked up the $75 adoption fee — what she believed to be the most expensive part of being a pet owner—and brought home her new 24-hour canine companion.
The same dogs and cats that were irreplaceable companions during the academic year become almost as disposable as unwanted textbooks at the ends of the semester — maybe even more so considering the students can't return the animals in for a small monetary refund.
But her solution to her loneliness may have caused more problems than she realized. The pooch was locked inside a tiny cage during the day while she was at work. And it wasn't cared for as it should have been, as I discovered when I asked her if the veterinarian bills for its required shots were expensive. Battered her eyes at me and said, "They don't really need all those shots and stuff."
Pets not only need those shots and stuff, but they also need to be walked, they need attention and they should be spayed or neutered. They require time and money — two things most college students have very little of to spare.
If you have a pet and are wondering what to do with it this summer, ask around to see if you can find a home for it rather than dumping it off at the humane society or abandoning it in a yard. Lawrence also offers many boarding options for pets. Look under "kennels" in the yellow pages — there are more than a dozen companies listed.
Pets are a financial and emotional commitment. They are living creatures, not a recyclable textbook that can be returned for the next demanding customer.
Humane society employees have a very difficult, disheartening season approaching. It's too bad college students contribute to it as much as they do.

Feedback China doesn't deserve permanent relations
In Wednesday's Kansan the editorial board asserted that the People's Republic of China should be granted permanent Normalized Trade Status with the U.S. He stated that this should be done to avoid a situation similar to that now experienced between North Korea and the U.S., one in which economic sanctions have closed all avenues of communication. This comparison misrepresented the stance of the vast
majority who are against granting the PRC permanent status. The stance of these people, who include myself, is that the U.S. should engage China but not write it the blank check that is irrevocable Normalized Trade Status. We wish that bodies such as the US Congress, who have on several occasions denounced the PRC's human rights abuses, have the power to revue progress in this area on a yearly basis and decide how to proceed from there. Permanent status will allow US business
to reap a windfall of revenue from China (at the expense of unionized American workers) and conveniently ignore human rights issues. We believe this must not be allowed to happen, as it has so many other times and in so many other countries.

Precautions could prevent sun burns
Rays are most intense between 10 a.m.,3 p.m.
By Warisa Chulindra writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
8' NO DIVI
When the mercury climbs and the sun shines, students head outside. But lounging outside without wearing sun block or sun-tanning lotion could have blistering results.
Even spending 20 minutes outside between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.- when the sun's rays are most intense - could lead to burns, said Julie Francis, health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
A KU student lays down next to a pool and enjoys the sunshine. Students should wear sun block or sun-tanning lotion when they are expecting to be outside from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., when the sun's rays are most intense, said Julie Francis, a health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center. KANSAN photo illustration
She said anytime people spent time outside, especially during the peak times, they should apply sun block or sun-tanning lotion frequently.
The sun-protection factor should be at least 15 and provide protection from both ultra-violet A and B rays. Francis said.
Sarah Wiley, Lyndon sophomore and a resident of Sellards Scholarship Hall, said she enjoyed laying in front of the hall on a blanket with her sleeves rolled up. She said other residents often could be found in lawn chairs and on blankets studying and enjoying the sunshine.
But getting sunburned is not usually on Wiley's mind.
"I don't really care because I'm not at the lake," she said. "I don't usually worry about it unless I'm going to be outside for more than an hour."
Wearing a hat and ultra-violet A protective sunglasses also is important because the face receives the most sun exposure. The lips, ears and nose are spots people sometimes forget to protect with sun-tanning lotion.
Preventing sunburns is important not just to avoid pain, but also for long-term health, Francis said.
"The more of a sunburn you have, the more likely you are to develop skin cancer," she said. "Everyone wants to look good now, but in the long run your skin will be leathery."
Legislature ends session with new spending bill
If students get sunburns, over-the-counter medication such as Follie and pain releivers are available to ease the pain. Aloe Vera gel and cold compresses also can be soothing.
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — A budget deal cleared the way for the Legislature's adjournment late Saturday night, after members already had approved prison, open-records and prescription drug legislation.
A conference committee of three senators and three House members reached agreement on the year's last spending bill after three days of meetings. The most difficult issue for them was to how spend Kansas's share of the national tobacco settlement.
The House approved the conference committee's report on the budget, 102-23, sending it to Gov. Bill Graves. Its vote came shortly after the Senate approved the report, 39-0.
Smaller issues continued to pop up, and retiring senators and House members gave farewell speeches. But the budget bill was the key to ending the session.
The Legislature adjourned shortly before midnight, finishing the 89th calendar day of its session.
The spending bill completed work on an $8.78 billion budget for the state's 2001 fiscal year, which begins July 1. The bill is likely to account for between $130 million and $140 million of the total.
The negotiators initially couldn't agree on how to spend $30 million in tobacco funds. They settled on putting some money toward children's health and education programs and some toward programs designed to prevent juvenile crime.
Another priority for legislators was a bill to strengthen the Kansas Open Records Act. It imposes fines for officials who withhold records and increases the power of the attorney general and prosecutors to
investigate alleged violations.
The Senate unanimously approved a compromise version of the bill, drafted by a joint conference committee. The House approved it 123-2 and sent it to Graves.
Legislators also finished work on $18.4 million worth of initiatives to address crowded prisons. The package includes a $6.2 million expansion of the state prison at Ellsworth. However, legislators included proposals to start "day reporting" centers and other changes designed to keep nonviolent criminals out of prison.
Kerr, one of the package's architects, described it as a significant change in policy for dealing with a growing inmate population. Other legislators saw it as a temporary fix to an ongoing problem. The Senate approved the final version of the bill, 36-4. The vote in the House was 69-54.
Graves said he was pleased with the package but took the latter view of its importance, telling reporters during a news conference: "I don't have any reason to believe that we won't be back here next year discussing capacity issues again."
Graves and his fellow Republicans also were pleased by passage of a bill that would create a limited program to help senior citizens nav for prescription drugs.
Democrats derided the bill as a "scam" because the $3.6 million program won't start until next year and will help only 3,000 elderly Kansans. Still, they voted with Republicans to accept the Senate's amendments to a bill they approved earlier this year.120-3.
In response to Democrats' criticism, Graves said he disagreed with the notion that it had to be big and cover everyone before it could justified.
Gay-rights activists march at U.S. Capitol
The Associated Press.
WASHINGTON — Hundreds of thousands of gays and supporters marched yesterday at the Capitol, transforming the National Mall into a sea of multicolored flags and joining hands in a show of unity they hope will transform recent victories into wider protections for homosexuals.
"We're only asking for the same rights as anyone else," said Adam May of Atlanta as he walked with the throngs of marchers. "Depriving one person ... puts everyone at risk of loss."
In a crowd dotted with openly gay celebrities, the marchers celebrated a week of victories that included passage of a new law in Vermont that grants gays marriage-like rights and a renewed plea by President Clinton for a federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
But participants vowed not to rest until same-sex couples got equal rights in all 50 states, and some wore costumes or carried signs calling attention to fights still on the horizon.
One man wearing a Boy Scout uniform held up a sign that said, "Straight Scouts for gay scouts," calling attention to a case heard by the Supreme Court last week in which a Scout leader was fired because he was gay. Others carried signs that said "Stop Hate Crimes" and chanted "full rights for gays."
Clinton spoke via videotape to what was the first gay-rights march on Washington since 1993. His image shown on a giant screen, the president declared he had presided during the most inclusive administration in history, which has appointed more than 150 openly gay people to important government posts.
Also in the crowd was the father of Matthew Shepard, the 21-year-old gay University of Wyoming student who died in Oct. 1998 after being beaten into a coma and tied to a fence.
Dennis Shepard said he met with Clinton Friday and was antimistic the hate-crimes bill would pass.
"If my son was alive, he would be here today," Shepard said. "Gay rights is the civil-rights issue of this century."
Small Business Administration head Aida Alvarez praised Clinton and Vice President Al Gore as true believers in making government represent all groups.

Tough times don't deter student from dream

Her brother Kevin sits on the couch. Looking tired after putting in a full day at the Hallmark factory, he bounces his 5-month-old son, Justin, on his knee.
The television is tuned to a documentary. The volume is low, and closed captioning scrolls across the screen in English. On the walls are wedding photos of My's brother Alan and her sister-in-law Sandy, along with wedding presents—framed Chinese characters of their names and blessings.
My's brother Andy slips off his shoes in the foyer, an Asian custom of paying respect. He walks gingerly into the room, careful not to wake My. He claps his hands and stretches out his arms. He wants to hold his nephew and godson.
Justin, the newest member of the family, is quiet and well-behaved. He rarely fusses and spends the night smiling and taking in everything with his big brown eyes. His head already is covered with thick, black hair. The family helps Kevin and his wife, Linh, care for Justin. My baby-sits Friday afternoons after she goes grocery shopping and has lunch with her mom.
"We take care of each other in the good times and the bad times," Andy said. "That's our family."
As the night progresses, the family comes to life. After a short nap, My retreats to her room to study. About 10, Kevin and Andy begin bustling around the kitchen, gathering food from the refrigerator and cupboards. Water boils in a huge pot, and they toss in noodles,
lettuce, tomatoes, eggs and shrimp.
It's as though the rest of the Truong brothers smell the food. As the dish simmers, they start filing in.
They enter through the door from the garage. First comes Alan, and moments later, the door opens again, and the oldest brother, Quan, enters.
Quan lives down the street with his wife, Lieng, and their two sons, Quan and Hung. The brothers greet one another enthusiastically in Chinese. The first thing each does is clap his hands and hold them out for Justin. They take turns carrying him around on their shoulders and kissing him.
For other family members, the road to the land of opportunities began far away in Saigon, Vietnam.
Searching for stability
The Truongs' journey to the United States was a long one. It took 10 years to complete the immigration paper work. Waiting for them at the other end of their journey was My's older brother Mac, who immigrated to the United States in 1978 following the Vietnam War.
Norman Yetman, professor of sociology and American studies, said the Truongs and the Chieus were classic examples of chain migration — people moving to a different country family member by family member.

grants with special jobs skills and political refugees top the 1965 Immigration Law's list of factors that increase foreigners' chances of immigrating to the United States. The highest priority is family reunification, Yetman said.

The Truongs' immigration was part of the aftermath of the Vietnam War. Before the war, My's father, Dan Dieu, was able to support the entire family working as a cab driver. After the war, jobs were scarcity, and the U.S. embargo placed on Vietnam hurt the Vietnamese economy.
The family repair shop didn't fare well. The Truongs turned to the underground market, exchanging Vietnamese currency with foreigners for dollars, gold and diamonds.
Sometimes the Truongs had no food to eat and relied on the money Mac sent them from Lawrence. But in July 1991, most of the family was reunited at Kansas City International Airport. Quan and Kiem, My's older brothers, remained in Saigon. Because they had families of their own, their immigration paperwork took longer. They arrived in the United States in 1995.
MARRY ME
Life in the United States brought with it cultural shock. It involved learning new customs such as using separate spoons for each dish at dinner rather than everyone using their own utensils to serve themselves. It also meant respecting one another regardless of age and everyone in the family pitching in.
One doesn't show up in a new country and put seven people through college by working 9 to 5. Some Truong family members found a market for their repair skills by working at Marks Jewelers, 817 Massachusetts St.
A few found work at Hallmark Cards Inc., 101 McDonald Drive. Others work at Packerware Inc., 2330 Packer Road.
Supporting a dream
These aren't the highest paying jobs, but they are jobs that can be learned from watching others — without being fluent in English.
Packerware is a place where more than one immigrant family in Lawrence has gotten its start. Five languages are spoken at the factory

— English, Vietnamese, Chinese, Laoican and Spanish.
My worked at the factory when she was in high school. When she began attending classes at the University, she waited tables at Imperial Garden, 2907 W. Sixth St.
After graduating from Lawrence High School in 1995, My started at the University that fall. She took classes at the Applied English Center, which has provided intensive English instruction to nonnative speakers for more than 30 years.
My's family was not only behind her but out in front of her, too. She said she couldn't have made it through college without the encouragement of her family and her older brother Andy, who showed her around campus. When she was discouraged about school, it was Andy who urged her not to give up, she said.
Last May, she watched Andy walk down the Hill. He graduated with an electrical engineering degree and now works for Sprint in Olathe.
"He supported me a lot." My said. "He was my model; he studied a lot. When he went to Watson Library to study, he took me along."
Empowering the next generation In the end, it's the family who profits from investing in the next generation's future.
The key to this family's American dream is higher education, and the Truongs and the Chieus support one another - emotionally and physically.
This is a family where the older members are willing to work and pay the living expenses so that their younger brothers and sisters can focus on school.
"We have no choice," said Kevin, the fifth oldest of the 11 brothers and sisters. "We have to pay rent. We have to pay food."
To avoid distractions and save money, My lives with her brother Alan and his wife, Sandy; and her brother Kevin, his wife, Linh, and their 5-month-old son, Justin. Two years ago, Alan bought a white
house with green shutters nestled in east Lawrence.
"I'm glad to have a big family."
My said. "I'm luckier than other people. I don't have to pay for rent or food."
After graduating, My will work at the processing center at Commerce Bank in Kansas City, Mo., where she intered last summer and now works part time. Her boss offered her a full-time job a few months ago.
In a few years, My said she hoped to get her master's degree in information systems from either the University or Washburn University in Topeka.
Although she will be working in Kansas City, Mo., My will live in Lawrence with her family and commute. She is ready to start a life of her own, and her plans include buying her own home and taking care of her mother.
"The most important thing will be to pay off my loans." My said, laughing.
My has her priorities straight, though.
And when she walks down the Hill. My will remember how she got there.
"Without my family and friends and my own motivation, I wouldn't have made it," she said.
About 50 members of her family will be on hand to watch her graduate. But one family member won't see My graduate. Her father died in November 1988 after battling cancer for two months — seven months before Andy graduated.
"I'm sad he didn't get to see me
and Andy graduate." My said. "But he's always with me."

ADJUSTMENTS
Language acquisition: They relied on My's older brother Mac, who had been in the United States since 1978, to act as their translator. Family members went to the Adult Learning Center to improve their English while the children took English-as-a-Second-Language classes at school. Keeping up with slang also was another challenge. However, they found that watching television was a helpful learning tool.
Learning how to drive: Mac taught several of his brothers and sisters how to drive.
**Dining Etiquette** The family would use their own utensils to put food on their plates. They had to learn to use a separate spoon for each dish.
Teaching Methods: In Vietnam, teachers would write notes on the board as they lectured. In some classes at the University of Kansas, the teacher would not have notes or an outline for students to follow.

Bush-McCain talks could be saved
Top Republicans' agendas clash
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Top advisers to George W. Bush and vanquished rival John McCain hope to salvage a May 9 meeting after the show-of-unity event nearly was scrapped.
Senior McCain advisers said the first face-to-face meeting since Bush drove McCain from the race likely would be postponed — if not canceled. Bush advisers said they were still confident the session would be held. Aides in both camps spoke only on condition not be identified.
In an effort to salvage the event, which is important to the political futures of both McCain and Bush, their top advisers planned to meet today in Washington.
Bush and McCain need a successful

There are downsides for both, as well. Bush is unlikely to gain M c C a in 's endorsement, which he needs
McCain: Top advisers say meeting would be postponed

to help court independent voters. And McCain fears he could damage his political maverick image if he unites with Bush at a meeting that independent voters recognize as, in the words of one aide, a political charade.
"The status of the meeting is tenuous," said McCain spokesman Todd Harris. "We feel that any meeting between Sen. McCain and Gov. Bush should be a substantial one. We don't view a meeting whose primary purpose is to go over once again whether John McCain wants to be vice president — when everyone knows he doesn't want to — falls into the substantial category."
McCain and his advisers have been chafing ever since Bush took the unusual step last week of announcing that he would ask McCain whether he was willing to serve as vice president. McCain has said repeatedly that he does not want the job.
Bush, however, has been under pressure from some Republicans who think McCain's appeal is worth a full-court effort to get him on the ticket.
McCain's advisers were preparing a list of suggested agenda items to submit to the Bush campaign Thursday when a syndicated columnist reported that Bush advisers expected little satisfaction from the meeting and might prefer a short, unhappy get-together in Pittsburgh rather than a long, tendentious partnership.
2000 Race for President
McCain, traveling in Vietnam to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, was angered by the column. He told ales to cancel the meeting unless they could be assured that Bush wanted substantial talks.
The fallout came just as Bush was stepping up his efforts to reach out to McCain and his supporters.
Dominican political parties clash, two dead
The Associated Press
SANYO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Bodyguards of the leading presidential candidate in the Dominican Republic shot and killed a governing party official and another man in what the opposition claimed was a response to an assassination attempt.
The most violent confrontation yet in the campaign was an indication of rising tensions and the high stakes involved in May 16 elections in this Caribbean nation of eight million people.
The opposition Dominican Revolutionary Party said someone shot at the car of its presidential candidate, Hipolito Mejia, Saturday night and that his security guards returned fire, killing two men.
But President Leonel Fernandez's Dominican Liberation Party said Meija's
security guards shot first.
The shooting took place in Moca, 90 miles from the capital, as Mejia's car was passing in front of the house of Luis Terrero Gil, 41, a local official of the Liberation Party.
Terrero, the director of the National Center for Science and Art, was killed, as was Rafael Penalo, 29, who was on the street in front of the house along with other supporters of the Liberation Party.
Francisco Javier Garcia, the Liberation Party's campaign manager, denied anybody shot at Mejia's car and said the killings were a premeditated assassination.
He said Terrero was on the patio when the shooting erupted. Terrero called out to his three children to come in from a small garden in front of the house and was then struck by eight bullets, he said.
Vietnam remembers victory with parade and amnesty
The Associated Press
HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam — Vietnam celebrated its stunning victory against the world's top superpower 25 years ago with a remarkably unwilike parade yesterday and hopes it could battle its way out of poverty in the new millennium.
Aging architects of that victory against the United States and its South Vietnamese allies saluted as thousands of soldiers, students, women in flowing ao dais — the traditional tunic and trousers — and barefooted mountain tribespeople filed past on the grounds of the Reunification Palace.
The day belonged to a man who died three decades ago, independence hero Ho Chi Minh, whose three-story portrait hung from the palace facade. But the mood was more akin to a springtime festival than a remembrance of war.
were assault rifles, and most units marched without them. Patriotic songs like "Uncle Ho Lives in the Great Victory Day," alternated with lifting, dance-like numbers during the parade, which lasted more than an hour.
Also marking the anniversary were the release of more than 12,000 prisoners, including convicted murderers, in the country's biggest-ever ammey and a mass wedding of 25 couples at a downtown park.
The heaviest weapons to be seen
In the day's only speech, Ho Chi Minh City mayor Vo Viet Thanh focused on economic problems in Vietnam, among the world's poorest nations with an average yearly per capita income of $370.
A higher economic growth rate, elimination of corruption and less restrictive policies, Thanh said, were among the city's goals in the 21st century. He stressed that every favorable condition would be afforded to foreign investors.
Guns become focus of school legislation
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats, angry that gun trigger locks and other safety measures remain stalled in juvenile justice legislation, now have a new vehicle big and popular enough to push their cause for weeks: education.
And, as debate begins today, federal school aid programs may get caught in the crosshairs.
"You can't separate safety and security in schools from the issue of the availability and the accessibility of guns," said Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.
On Friday, Republicans and Democrats set up "war rooms" in the Capitol to highlight their differences on who should control $20 billion in federal K-12 grants. The Democrats replicated a classroom with student desks and chairs to hold interviews and Internet chats, promoting class-size reduction and after-school funding. Republicans planned online chats and events to tout the flexibility of voucher proposals and block grants.
"We would hope it could stay a pure debate on education," Karpinski said.
"There is a clear difference between us on who should set the priorities; people are going to want to know both sides," said Joseph Karpinski, a spokesman for Sen. James Jeffords, R-Vt., chairman of the Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee. Jeffords is bringing the main proposal to his colleagues and must oversee the debate. Kennedy is the leading Democrat on the panel.
Kennedy said he and others would be united in making gun-control proposals, adding that guns used in the Columbine slayings were acquired through loopholes in laws governing gun shows.
"When you talk about security and safety in schools, most of us have historically looked at smaller class sizes, after-school programs, and better trained teachers, but part of this whole thing is having schools free from easy accessibility to guns," Kennedy said.
House lawmakers will soon consider a school-safety bill without trigger-lock requirements.
Democrats have long tried to attach gun control to other bills, but they weren't successful until the 1999 renewal of federal grants to states for juvenile-delinquency programs. However, the House and Senate plans failed to match: a Senate-passed bill set a 72-hour background check on gun-show sales and a House bill shrank the wait to 24 hours.
A House-Senate conference committee has been assigned to reconcile differences; normally when there are such differences on complex legislation, members and their advisers meet privately to work out a compromise. But politics intensified disagreements. Democrats unhappy with the pace of negotiations have demanded that House and Senate negotiators meet openly — hoping the public glare will prod them into action.
Meanwhile, Democrats and Republicans have a wide gulf to bridge in rewriting the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, which helps schools pay for programs ranging from boosting poor children's grades and test scores to training their teachers.
It's the first time a Republican led Congress has had a crack at the 34-year old law — often criticized for failing to properly educate the nation's poorest kids. Individual plans to change the bill range from ensuring girls take as many math classes as boys to restocking library shelves.

Cultural exchange
German graduate student teaches English courses
THE MUSEUMS OF CINEMA
By Karen Lucas Special to the Kansan
"She brings in a lot of personal stories that help the class
Six-year-old Andrea Weis loved to sing along in English when she heard songs by Elvis Presley, Carole King and Janis Joplin in her native Germany.
identify with the German culture." said Julie Mohart Overland Park freshman.
"The English language sounded beautiful to me," We recalls more than 20 years later.
That early rapport with English flowed.
After years of formal English study and exposure to American culture while growing up in Germany, Weis not only is fluent in English, but she also is a graduate student in American studies and a graduate teaching assistant in English at the University of Kansas.
That's not all. This semester, Weis is teaching for the first time an English course of her own design and on a
subject close to her heart: German/American Literature and Film. It looks at how various literary texts and films treat the complex relationship between Germany and the United States, with emphasis on World War II and the Cold War.
The course is a section of English 203, a composition and literature class based on special themes.
To compete for a teaching slot, a GTA in English must have a few years of teaching experience and also has to submit a course proposal to the director of freshman and sophomore English, said Richard Hardin, chairman and professor of English.
and she was goad to get due chance. "I can relate to the topic not only on an academic level," she said, "but also on a cultural and personal level."
Weis said she was glad to get the chance.
At the beginning of the semester, the class studied Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse- Five.
Other selected works include Billy Wilder's One, Two, Three, a fictional film that focuses on a Coca-Cola bottling plant in Berlin in 1961, and Bertolt Brecht's play The Resistible Rise of Aruuro I, which Weis said criticized German industrialists for backing Adolf Hitler in his power quest.
How is the course progressing?
"I get the impression it's going very well," Weis said. "I feel good about it because the students seem to be interested in a country other than their own."
In a recent class, Weis and about 25 students viewed a selection from Leni Riefenstahl's documentary film that showed Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympics in Munich. Afterward, they launched into a discussion of how the film related to several articles they had read.
Bubbling with enthusiasm, Weis interlaced her observations with those of her students. Her frequent smiles and positive comments further energized the students.
"I really like this class," said Julie Mohart, Overland Park freshman. "It's different from a lot of my classes because we discuss a lot. She doesn't always know the answers. She really wants our input. I think it's a learning process for her and the class in general."
Weis concluded the class meeting on a triumphant note when she returned a set of papers.
"They were really good," she told the class.
"I was so proud of you."
"She truly cares about people, especially the students," Pence said. "GTAs as a group are some of the most committed people to their students, and she particularly stands out."
Weis also complimented various students as she handed them their pans.
"I like the way she's very open to her students," Ratziaff said. "I went in to talk for 15 minutes about a paper and ended up chatting for an hour and a half."
Ray Pence, Caspar, Wyo., graduate student, knows what a devoted teacher his colleague is.
Erika Ratzlaff, Buhler freshman, said she also appreciated Weis' receptiveness and commitment.
"She brings in a lot of personal stories that help the class identify with the German culture." Mohart said.
Weis likes to resort to storytelling as well.
Weis grew up in former West Germany, which she said was heavily Americanized with McDonald's, Coça-Cola, billboards in English, rap music and Hollywood movies. She also made friends with American
exchange students as well as soldiers stationed at military bases.
As a high school student, Weis began her formal study of English. She said she was more interested in English than French and other foreign languages. Reading literature in English was a pleasurable experience for her.
Weis sampled American culture firsthand in 1988 when she was 18. She visited several Western states with an uncle, who later moved to Oregon and became a horse trainer.
Eight years later, after having made two other U.S. trips, Weis came to Kansas as a recipient of a Graduate Direct Exchange scholarship. Graduate students at the University of Kansas and various foreign universities can participate in the exchange program. When Weis applied, she was studying at Germany's University of Mainz.
Weis liked it so much that she decided to stay after the year of her scholarship and become a degree-seeking student in the University of Kansas' master's program in American studies.
"I felt like the scholarship here was more sound in the sense they used more up-to-date theory and methods." she said.
Todd Starke-Meyerring, a St. Paul, Minn., graduate student who shares an office with Weis, lauded her intellectual ability. He said she was a rigorous thinker who liked to go into depth.
Weis' mastery of English has not gone unnoticed. Faculty members have had much praise for her English skills.
"Both in her written work and in her conversation, I would not pick up that she is not a native speaker," said David M. Katzman, professor and chair of American Studies. "She has a command of idiomatic English that only native speakers have."
Yet Weis conceded that she didn't have a
perfect mastery of English when she came to Kansas.
"It took me about a half year to figure out when it was appropriate to say 'right on,'" she said.
Weis also said that for a while she preferred not to speak German or hang out with other German exchange students but that had changed. Speaking her native tongue is more important to her now.
"It has a lot to do with your identity," Weis said. "There's only so much you can express about yourself in a foreign language."
In addition, Weis has taught German conversation classes to KU students.
As a KU student, Weis has returned three times to Germany. But going back hasn't been easy for her.
Her sister, Susana, has referred to her jokingly as "the American."
Yet a fascination for American culture does seem to run in the family. Another sister, Nora, is into rap music, and her brother, Martin, loves basketball.
Although Weis misses her family, she doesn't plan to leave Kansas anytime soon. After completing her master's in American studies, Weis will go for her doctorate as she prepares for a career in academia.
Weis hopes to land a teaching job at an American university. But she said she would consider teaching in Germany.
“It's most important I get to do something in the English language,” she said. “I like speaking English. I enjoy teaching in English.”

sandwiched a victory between the two losses, defeating Stanford by nearly 4 seconds Saturday afternoon.
Kansas coach Rob Catloth said he was happy with the finish against Southern California, and that the short lapse could be fixed before the Central Regionals in two weeks.
"We were very pleased to be 3 seconds behind a Top 10 team," Catloth said.
"The 100 meters before the 1,000-meter mark is where we fell behind. In a couple of weeks we'll be able to put it all together in one race."
The Jayhawks finished 2 seconds behind the school record against Southern California. Kansas set the record last May in the Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships.
Assistant coach Heather Galvin said she was excited about the times the first varsity had been producing.
"It's kind of nice to see them hitting times like that in the middle part of the spring, when that was where we stood last year when we peaked," Galvin said.

The Jayhawks were more pleased with almost defeating Southern California and Washington State than beating Stanford. The Cardinal weren't expected to give the Jayhawks a race, but Stanford lost by almost 4 seconds.
Still, Catloth said the Jayhawks raced well in the Stanford dual. He also said Stanford must have been gunning for Kansas, as they gave the 'Hawks a much closer race than they had expected.
The second varsity boat outcome was much like the first varsity's. The second boat defeated Stanford, but lost to Southern California and Washington State.
The varsity four defeated Oregon State but also lost to Washington State.
The Jayhawks will have a weekend off before entering the final step before the NCAA tournament, the Central Regionals May 13 in Oak Ridge, Teen. Galvin said that this weekend's results should carry into a strong showing at

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — All the Kansas men's tennis team can do now is wait and hope.
After beating Oklahoma State 4-2 Friday afternoon at the Big 12 Championships and then losing to Baylor 4-0 in Saturday's semifinals, the Jayhawks are left wondering whether they will qualify for the NCAA tournament.
Seth Jones
With an overall record of 10-12, Kansas coach Mark Riley said he hoped that the strength of his team's schedule this season would get them in the tournament.
"We are definitely a bubble team right now," Riley said. "I think we'll probably make the tournament, because we finished fourth in a premier conference like the Big 12 and plaved a very tough schedule."
If the Jayhawks were to have any chance at the NCAA tournament, they knew they were going to have to get past Oklahoma State. They did just that, beating the fifth-seeded Cowboys 4-2.
Kansas got off to a great start, sweeping all three doubles matches for the doubles point. Junior Ed Dus and Sophomore Rodrigo Echagayar led the way for the 'Hawks at No. 1 doubles, defeating Matt Prentice and Eru Lindon. 8-5.
Sophomores Quentin Blakeney and Alex Barragan won their singles matches at No. 3 and No. 6 singles respectively, putting Kansas just one point away from clinching the overall victory. At No.1 singles, Echagaray

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas women's tennis team lost 5-2 to Baylor in the second round of the Big 12 Championships on Friday.
Heading into the match, coach Jenny Garrity said she liked the way the sevent-seeded Jayhawks matched up with No. 2 seed Baylor, but the Bears won four of the six singles matches and needed to win only one doubles match to advance.
After the match, Garrity's sentiment hadn't changed.
"I think Baylor is an extremely beatable team," she said.
Senior Brooke Chiller, in her last Big 12 match, lost to Jahnavi Parekh 6-2, 6-0 at No. 1 singles. Chiller said the team was confident heading into the rematch

Books, not balls, key to success
Just before the shots came around at the Lyon, I felt a pair of large hands grab me around the neck. I turned slowly and saw a large man with long gray hair, a shaggy mustache with a beard, wearing a really loud Hawaiian shirt. His grip wasn't loosening.
It was the end of the semester and the final edition of The University Daily Kansan had gone to press. A bunch of us from the newsroom went down to the Red Lyon to celebrate another semester completed. Chris Fickett was doing his duty as sports editor and buying all the sports writers a shot of Jazmerreister.
"How many times have you been greeted like this by someone who got pissed off by something you wrote?" he asked me.
nat was the first time I met Rick Younger, owner of Rick's Place, 623 Vermont St. It turned out I didn't have to smash my bottle of Bud against his face. Rick was just kidding with me, and he actually is a loyal reader of my columns, not an angry psycho.
my coltins.
Since then, I've frequented Rick's Place for an occasional alcoholic beverage and a fair share of sports wisdom. It turns out that Rick used to play pro baseball — for an entire four games. He also holds two Kansas baseball pitching records from his playing days in 1968-69, when he played at was then Quigley Field, now Hogwil Ballpark.
The other record he doesn't talk about as much. For a while, he had one of the lowest ERAs in Kansas baseball. But he just shrugs and says that it was a long time ago.
He sweeps that he is responsible for all the trees behind the field. "It seems everywhere I played, they had to plant trees behind the stadium to try and knock down some of the balls that were hit off me."
Regardless, Rick left Kansas for the Cleveland Indians and one of the organization's farm teams. That's when Rick went to Elmira, N.Y., the town where his career would come to an end. In his fourth game with the team, Rick left the mound to cover third. When the ball came back to him, he was on the bag and took a pair of sharp cleats to the knee. It happened 30 years ago, but he can still show you two cleat marks in his left knee.
With his athletic career finished, Rick came back to Kansas and got a degree in English and journalism. Then he joined a band and played drums for almost nine years. He gave up drumming in 1980 and came back to Kansas to get a degree in business.
"It it didn't hurt until I made it back to the dugout, and my coach yelled out, 'You still bleeding?' I turned around to see who he was talking to, 'Rick said.' "Then he said 'Younger! Are you still bleeding?' I looked down and my pants leg was soaked with a mix of dirt and blood. That's when it started to hurt."
"I can read, write and add, so I own a bar," he says. "But sometimes, my adding isn't that good."
He grabs a baseball off a shelf behind the bar and gets a serious look on his face. "The best way to bean a guy is to throw right at the zipper on his pants. Then they panic, and turn rather than get out of the way. You hit 'em right in the butt. That's why Jesus gave us all butts, so we don't get seriously hurt from bean balls."
From behind the bar, usually while pouring an ungody amount of Crown Royal into a mixing tin with ice, he talks about how baseball has changed.
"Used to be, a guy hit a home run off you, the next time he got up to bat, you beamed him. It was almost courtesy," he said.
It's been 30 years since Rick threw a serious pitch, but he's more than happy being a bar owner in the same town as the university that he loves. He's built a bar where people can play shuffleboard, to the Beastie Boys, drink some beers or just talk sports.
"I think Kansas athletics are in very good shape right now," he said. "You've got a bunch of coaches who really care about their players, and that's what is important."
"But the most important thing is for these guys to go to class. Someday, you can't throw it past a guy anymore, or you can't put the ball in the hole like you used to. That's why the education is so important."

fingers. Don't let that happen!

Rookie spins out, loses lead and first victory
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — Adrian Fernandez got a victory he never expected when rookie Alex Tagliani — well on his way to winning for the first time in his CART career — spun out with nine laps remaining yesterday in the Rio 200.
"It was a very different day for us," Fernandez said. "We started way back, and we didn't hit the setup the first two days, so I had to work my way through the pack."
Polesister Tagliani was leading the pack when he spun out entering a

Fernandez, who started 16th in a field of 25, assumed the lead and drove his Ford-Reynard to a victory at the 1.864 mile Emerson Fittipaldi Speedway. He covered 108 laps in 1 hour, 37 minutes, 12.490 seconds — getting more out of his car than he had sustained.

OAK BROOK, III. — Anyone interested in buying the uniform Babe Ruth wore in Pride of the Yankees will need a hefty bank account.
The uniform Ruth wore in the movie about teammate Lou Gehrig was made and owned by the Western Costume Co., and returned there after the Samuel Goldwyn film was completed in 1942.
Sometime later, the size-50 uniform disappeared, not once, but twice. It first surfaced in the private collection of a collector-dealer who was the victim of a 1980 underworld hit in Las Vegas. After remaining unclaimed for years in a police property room, it was purchased by a sports-card shop owner from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and stolen again.

HERSHEY, Pa. — Honduras, which nearly dropped out of the Olympic qualifying tournament before it began, beat the United States 2-1 yesterday and won the event.
Honduras beats U.S. in pre-Olympic play
While it was a sensational weekend for the Hondurans, who beat Mexico in a shootout to get to the final, it was a disappointing ending for the U.S. team. Following a 4-0 wipeout of Guatemala in the semifinals, it seemed primed to win the CONCACAF regional crown.
Both teams already had qualified for the Sydney Games by winning in the semifinals.
But the under-23 U.S. team — rules require all players in Olympic qualifying to be under 23 — showed some inexperience. After taking an early 1-0 lead, the team generally was outplayed by the Central Americans, particularly in the second half.
Honduras' players protested a lack of payment for the tournament and almost didn't attend. When the Honduras federation promised the payments were forthcoming, the players came to Hershey — and promptly lost 3-0 to the United States.
They finally made their payments, then went on to stun the highly regarded Mexicans in the semis before knocking off the hosts.

finished off the Cowboys in thrilling fashion, squeezing past his opponent, Prentice, 3-6, 7-5, 7-6 (7-6).
"We knew all along it would be a close match," Riley said. "The key to the match was getting to the third set after several of the first sets. Our freshmen and sophores have been up and down all season, and this time they came through for us."
Senior captain Bryan Maier said the home crowd made a big difference in the match against
Oklahoma State.
"We came out really fired up," Maier said. "It was nice to actually have a home crowd advantage. It was really special for me in particular to have all of my family and friends there."
After beating Oklahoma State, fourth-seeded Kansas advanced to play No. 1 seed Baylor in Saturday's semifinals. But the Jayhawks were swept in doubles play and lost all three singles matches that were played as Baylor won 4-0.
"We lost all of our matches in straight sets, which was really
surprising". Riley said. "I think we were nervous out there, which is disappointing because we had nothing to lose. Baylor played like seniors, and we played like freshmen and sophomores."
Layour was upset by No. 2 seed Texas A&M 4-0 in Sunday's final. The Jayhawks now must wait until May 4 to hear whether they will receive an at-large bid into the NCAA tournament.

Baylor coach Dave Luedtke said that Kansas was a very
good opponent and that the Bears' high energy level led to their four singles wins.
Kansas started the tournament well with a 5-0 thrashing of Iowa State in Thursday's first round, and Chiller said that the team's momentum would carry it into the second round.
Now Kansas, 13-12 overall, has to wait and see if its season will continue with an invitation to the NCAA tournament.
A win against the Bears would have helped the Jayhawks' cause,but the they still have a chance. Kansas advanced to the tournament last year with a 13-13 record.
Tournament notes:
Texas won its fourth consecutive Big 12 Tournament title, slapping Baylor 5-0 in yesterday's final. Texas breezed through Colorado, Kansas State and finally Baylor without losing a match.

Bears' pitching dooms'Hawks in sweep
By Amanda Kaschube
sports@kansan.com
Kansas swriter
With the bases loaded in the eighth inning yesterday in Waco, Texas, center fielder Doug Dreher lined a shot toward Baylor third baseman Mark Saccomanno. But Saccomanno snagged the shot, ending Kansas' best chance of avoiding its second conference series sweep.
The 'Hawks stranded nine base runners yesterday in a series that was marked by tight pitching — except when Kansas was on the mound.
The Baylor pitching staff dominated the Kansas offense all weekend, allowing only six runs on 13 hits during the three-game series. The Hawks (22-26 overall), 8-19 in the Big 12
Baseball
Conference) lost 8-1 Friday, 5-0 Saturday and 6-5 yesterday.
Bears pitcher Kyle Evans pitched a complete game in Saturday's shutout, allowing three hits, and reliever Zane Carlson shut down Kansas in the late innings yesterday.
The steady Baylor pitching — the Bears struck out 26 Jayhawks — made beating the No. 5, conference-leading Bears much harder.
"Waco is a tough place to play, and their pitching was a lot better than I expected," said coach Bobby Randall.
"We handled the lefty well, but the two righties earlier this weekend gave us trouble. They deserve to be the No. 5 nationally ranked team."
While Baylor, 39-13 overall, 20-7 in the Big 12, was perfect on the mound, Kansas pitcher Brandon O'Neal was not that stable yesterday.
O'Neal (1-5) allowed six of the eight lead-off hitters on base
and four scored laurel junior gave up six earned runs in six innings and walked four in an outing that Randall said was disappointing.
The walks he gave up hurt him a lot," he said. "The game got away from us early, and we never got it back. We had chances to score with runners on base, but we flubbed on a lot of them."
The flubbing — Kansas stranded nine on base yesterday came from strikeouts. That and a strong center field cost Kansas the game.
But senior Shane Wedd said the three losses weren't because of Jayhawk errors.
■ Kansas has never beat Baylor in Waco. The 'Hawks are 0-10 on the road against the Bears.
"I think what it came down to was that they threw three quality games," he said. "We would have had to have played flawless baseball. It just didn't go our way this weekend." Kansas Baseball Notes
Senior Rusty Philbrick made his 4th career start and became Kansas' all-time leader in games started, breaking David Meyer's record. Philbrick fell to 5-5 on the season after Saturday's loss.

Surprise bunt leads Royals to win against Mariners
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - While home runs are generating all the excitement in Kansas City, sometimes it's the little things that are winning games for the Royals.
Mike Sweeney's bunt single in the sixth inning caught everybody by surprise and helped Kansas City beat the Seattle Martins 6-3 yesterday.
Sweeney's bunt enabled Johnny Damon to speed home from third and break a 2-2 tie, flustering Gil Meche (0-3) and thrilling Royals manager Tony Muser.
"This is a sign of maturity and wanting to win, and learning how to win," said Muser. "That was tremendous. That was what really sparked us and got us into position to do other good things."
It was not a suicide squeeze. Damon had no idea Sweeney wasn't swinging away.
"Johnny came up to me in the second inning and said Meche was falling off the mound toward first base, and my next at-bat I noticed [third baseman Carlos] Guillen was way back." Sweeney said. "So I decided to bunt it."
"For Sweeney to lay down a bunt right there, that's just not something I expected." Meche said.
Jermaine Dye's RBI double a moment later made it 4-2, then Joe Randa tacked on a two-run homer in the eighth as the Royals raised their home record to 10-2.
Jose Rosado (2-2) went 5 and 2/3 innings and was replaced by Jose Santiago after a 50-minute rain delay. Rosado gave up two runs on five hits, with three walks and four strikeouts.
Santiago struck out five batters in 21/3 innings and prompted Seattle manager
"Johnny came up to me in the second inning and said Meche was falling off the mound toward first base, and my next at-bat I noticed [third baseman Carlos] Guillen was way back. So I decided to bunt it."

Lou Piniella to wonder if he wasn't scuffing the ball. Piniella went out and asked the umpires about it.
"Every time Santiago went to his belt buckle, the ball was doing something funny," Piniella said. "I just asked them to check the ball if he went to his belt buckle."
Santiago denied any wrongdoing.
Santiago denied my wrongdoing. "I guess my ball moved pretty good today and he was kind of surprised," Santiago said. "The umpires didn't say anything to me. I asked him if he wanted to check me and he said no."
Ricky Bottalico pitched the ninth for his third save.
Mark Quinn hit a two-run homer in the first and Dye hit an RBI double in the sixth that capped one of the most productive Aprils in team history.
Dye, the first player in major league history to have 10 home runs and 10 doubles before May 1, closed out the month leading the AL with 11 homers. 83 total bases, 12 doubles, 2 extra-base hits and an .847 slugging percentage. His 11

homers and 28 RBI are both club records for April.
Alex Rodriguez hit a sacrifice fly in the third. The Mariners tied it at 2 on an RBI grounder in the fifth by Edgar Martinez.
Johnny Damon reached on a fielder's choice in the fifth and went to second with his league-leading 11th stolen base before Sweeney laid down his two-out bunt.

Royals
Martinez hit his fifth home run with two out in the seventh
I ran with two arms. Meche gave up four runs and six hits in five innings. He walked three and struck out five.
In his five starts, the Mariners have scored just seven runs.
"The runs are just not coming right now," he said. "I'm just not getting lucky right now. But it will turn around. I'll just keep going after them."
- Every Mariner batter struck out one time.
Notes:
The Mariners (13-10) had a winning April for just the seventh time in their history.
After getting swept in three games in Seattle last week, the Royals took two of three from the Mariners.
- Royals 2B Carlos Febles made a fine play in the seventh. With John Olerud on first and two out, Jay Buhner hit a hard smash straight at him. He knocked the ball down, then went to his knees and tossed to shortstop Jeff Reboulet for the force.

Javelin win at Drake Relays propels thrower to 'Triple Crown'
By Sarah Warren
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Scott Russell might as well be a racehorse — though he's built more like a Clydesdale. The 6-foot-9, 270 pound junior, already an All-American and a team captain, completed the Triple Crown of track and field this weekend by winning the javelin at the Drake Relays.
"Back in yesteryear it was big to win the Triple Crown, which is to win your event at the Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays," coach Gary Schwartz said. "I remember when it was a big deal, and I think it is still a big deal and Scott obtaining
TRACK AND FIELD
that is definitely a highlight." The accomplishment was a meet highlight, but not a season highlight, at least in Russell's eyes.
"Honestly, I'm not happy with how I threw," Russell said. "But I can't complain because I did end up winning, and I did complete the Triple Crown."
In fact, Russell threw 231-feet-8, after throwing 239-7 at Texas and 239-0 at Kansas.
"There were two guys there
that could have and should have beat me," Russell said. "I did all right."
Kansas fared well in other throwing events, with sophomore Andrea Bulat placing third in the women's javelin and sophomore Ryan Speers finishing eighth in the men's shot put. Also on the field, junior All-American Andrea Branson placed fourth in the pole vault.
Meanwhile, on the track, junior All-American Charlie Gruber placed second in the 1,500-meter race, missing the win by nine-hundredths of a second. Although he was runner up, Gruber provisionally qualified for the NCAA outdoor meet and ran his second
fastest 1,500 ever at 3:43.59
Because of these high standards, Kansas was unable to field a full team. Those who did not attend Drake headed east to Kansas City, Mo., to compete at the University of Missouri-Kansas City Open.
“Getting into the Drake Relays is an accomplishment; placing at the Drake Relays is an accomplishment as well.” Schwartz said. “It's probably the largest sporting event at Drake, and it is definitely a world-renowned meet among track and field enthusiasts.”
At that meet, the 'Hawks faced more than 400 athletes from schools around the Midwest. There, senior Shanna Shoemaker won the
high jump, while freshman Sarah Schraeder was runner-up and sophomore Jennifer Foster placed third in the disc. Sophomore Justin Stancil placed third in the pole vault, while junior Ashley Pyle and freshman Megan Wray placed second and fourth, respectively, in the women's side of the event. Junior Sherre-Khan Blackmon placed fifth in the 400-meter run, while junior Erika Hamel claimed fourth in the 100-meter low hurdles, and sophomore Derek Lacio finished fifth in the 800-meter run.
The Jayhawks will be in Marietta, Ga., next week at the Life University Series.
Jayhawks drop two to Sooners
By Rebecca Barlow
Softball
Kansan sportswriter
The Oklahoma softball team has pounded the ball all season against its Big 12 Conference opponents — and Kansas was no exception.
no exception.
Oklahoma, 55-6 overall and 17-1 in the
Big 12, outhit Kansas 10-3 Saturday and 11-
6 yesterday, defeating the Jayhawks 11-3
and 6-2 and clinching its second-straight
Big 12 regular-season championship.
The Jayhawks, 30-29 overall and 5-11 in the Big 12, jumped to an early 1-0 lead in the second inning yesterday with a home run by senior first baseman Shannon Stanwix. The Jayhawks didn't score again until the seventh inning, when Stanwix hit her second homer of the game.
"Today we really had some people swinging the bats hard," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "Shannon had two big hits for us. I was pleased with what we did. Scoring runs and getting some kids back on track offensively is what I take as a positive."
Oklahoma retaliated, scoring two runs in the second, one in the fourth and three in the fifth. Sooner outfielder Andrea Davis went 2-3, including four RBI.
Davis went 23,5 hits. Senior Melanie DeWinter started on the mound for the Jayhawks and gave up 10 hits. DeWinter was relieved by senior Sarah Clopton, who gave up one hit and had two strikeouts.
But yesterday was smooth sailing compared to Saturday's game for the Kansas pitching staff. Oklahoma's offense was a nightmare for Clopton and DeWinter in first game. The Sooners collected eight hits and nine runs off Kansas' starter Clopton, and they tallied two hits and two runs off reliever DeWinter.
Lisa Carey, Oklahoma's top hitter at .408,
continued her spectacular season. She hit a three-run bomb in the first inning and followed it up with a grand slam in the fourth, tallying seven RBI and two runs on the afternoon.
"Oklahoma is just a very talented team offensively," Bunge said. "It's not very often you are going to shut a team down like that."
Kansas scored all three of its runs in the fourth inning on a three-run home run by Courtney Wright.
Sooner starting pitcher Jennifer Stewart held the Jayhawks to three hits and notched three strikeouts. Senior pitcher Lana Moran relieved Stewart and allowed no hits or runs and had two strikeouts.
Despite the two losses, the Jayhawks feel they played well against the Big 12's best team.
"It was as positive as you can get with two losses," Stanwix said. "They beat us and we didn't beat ourselves, and that is a big difference."
With the two losses, the Jayhawks will need to take both games from Nebraska this Friday at the Husker Softball Complex to improve their seed in the Big 12 tournament. The Jayhawks are tied with Missouri for eighth in the conference.

Knicks sweep Raptors, will take on Heat
Lucky shot aids third-game victory
The Associated Press
TORONTO — The New York Knicks are marching on to Miami after they got a lucky three-point shot from Larry Johnson and swept the Toronto Raptors.
Jennson banked in a three-pointer from a nearly straight-away angle with 24.2 seconds left yesterday, leading the Knicks to an 87-60 victory against the Raptors in the first NBA playoff game played in Canada.
"Definitely, the gods were with me," Johnson said. "I didn't call a bank on that one."
The Knicks and Heat now will renew their postseason rivalry for the fourth straight season, each of the teams coming off first-round sweeps.
The Knicks had to work hard for this one, just as they did in the first two
games of the series, and the difference came down to which team could make the right decisions and sink the key shots in the final minute.
Allan Houston, who led New York with 23 points, made the first one when he sank a 21-foot jumper with 44 seconds left for an 82-78 lead. After a pair of foul shots by Antonio Davis.
Johnson made the next big play.
KNICKS
His three-pointer slammed off the backboard and went right through the net without touching the rim, and Johnson pointed his first at his right elbow—his
"Big L" gesture that has returned to fashion after a one-year absence. Only this time, the "L" might just as well have stood for "lucky" rather than "Larry."
Vince Carter and Dee Brown missed shots on Toronto's next possession, and Chris Childe locked up the victory by making two foul shots with 11.8 seconds left.
As the final eight seconds ticked off the clock, the Raptors hung their heads and gave up.
Carter had another below-par game, scoring 15 points on five-for-17 shooting.
The Knicks aggressively double teamed Carter in the final minutes, even sending two men out to guard him at half court when he brought the ball up.
After Carter hit two foul shots for a 78-78 tie with 1:34 left, Johnson was fouled by Dee Brown and made both free throws. Charles Oakley then picked up his dribble 30 feet from the basket and threw the ball out of bounds when none of the other Raptors came to help him.
with Toronto double-teaming Latrell Sprewell on the right wing on New York's next possession, Houston was left open. He saw an opening, stepped up and made a 22-foot jumper with 44 seconds left for a four-point lead.
Houston had his highest-scoring game of the series, Johnson added 14 points, Patrick Ewing had 12 and Sprewell 11.
Davis led the Raptors with 18 points. The biggest statistical difference was in
three-point shooting, as New York went nine-for-16 and Torontt was three-for-21.
Carter played only seven minutes in the first quarter and did not score, then sat out the final four minutes of the second quarter in a curious move by coach Butch Carter.
New York missed 10 of its first 11 shots as Toronto started two-for-11, and neither team led by more than five in a first half which ended with the Knicks ahead 46-45. Houston led the Knicks with 10 points, while Davis had 14 for Toronto to make up for a lack of production from Carter and Tracy McGrady.
The Raptors made the first big move of the game midway through the third quarter as McGrady scored eight straight points for a 59-52 lead, but Houston spurred a quick comeback with a steal, a block and a three-pointer as New York ran off an 8-0 spurt to regain the momentum.
Toronto led 68-61 entering the fourth quarter, and each team had a run — 8-0 by the Knicks; 7-0 by the Raptors — in the first six minutes of the final quarter.
Timberwolves stay alive, beat Portland 94-87
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — The only smudge on Terrell Brandon's career day was that it came at the expense of his hometown pal from Portland.
Brandon scored 28 points in his best playoff performance ever and shut down Damon Stoudamire as the Minnesota Timberwolves staved off elimination with a 94-87 victory against the Trail Blazers yesterday.
Brandon, who added 12 assists and seven rebounds, helped hold Stoudamire to two free throws, 14 points below his playoff average.
Stoudamire would just as soon forget about his dismal day. He was zero for eight from the field with one rebound and had as many assists (six) as fouls.
Brandon was 10 of 16 from the field. six of six from the line
"I didn't play tough because this was Portland," Brandon said. "This was do or die. I'll take another 48 if that's what
and had just one turnover while not getting so much as a single breather from coach Flip Saunders.
"It takes a lot of energy to have to guard Damon because he's faster than me."

Flip and the team needs me to do."
Brandon not only handled Stoudamire, who is three years younger, but also his feisty backu-
Greg Anthony, who logged 20 minutes.
"It takes a lot of energy to have to guard Damon because he's faster than me," Brandon said. "Then, Greg comes in and guards me fullcourt and that takes more energy."
Brandon was up to the task. "He played an excellent g
He played an excellent game. Stoudamire said, "I said at the beginning of the series, if he played good for them, they'd win this series."
That's still a long shot, even if Brandon can reproduce one of the finest all-round playoff performances ever recorded by a point guard.
Only four teams have overcome a 2-0 deficit since 1984, when the league adopted the best-of-five format for the first round of the playoffs.
Game 4 is tomorrow night at Target Center, and Blazers coach Mike Dumleavy said he wasn't about to juggle his lineup.
Blazers forward Scotte Pippen said nothing went wrong for Brandon.
"He's one of the top point guards. They're very patient offensively, and he's a great leader," Pippen said. "It doesn't hurt to have K.G. on your team, either."
Kevin Garnett, who has just two triple-doubles in five NBA seasons, had his second triple-double in a week with 23 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists for the Wolves.
Playing just their second home game in three weeks, the Wolves did what they couldn't do in Portland: stifle Pippen (16 points), execute down the stretch and curb their mistakes.
At times in the first half, Smith, who hyperextended his right knee in Game 2, matched up with Wallace, moving Garnett to small forward to try to curb Pippen, who had schooled rookie Wally Szczerbiak and veterans Sealy and
BLAZERS
O
Peeler for 49 points in the first two games in Portland.
Pippen didn't score any points against Garnett, who took the victory in stride, knowing a 50-win season means little if the Wolves don't get out of the first round for the first time in their 11-year history.
"We have no choice but to do this again." Garnett said.
"We wish we could go out and play again right now," Pippen said. "We know we didn't play well. We shot ourselves in the foot today."
The teams combined for just 13 turnovers, tying an NBA playoff record.
Steve Smith scored 22 points for the Blazers, who hit their first 17 free throws. When they finally missed, Brian Grant got his own rebound with a chance for Portland to cut its 80-77 deficit.
But Grant committed an offensive foul with just under five minutes left, and the Wolves would never relinquish their lead.
Strong Kings' bench gives team boost in Game 3 victory
The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Shaquille O'Neal lost his shooting touch. Kobe Bryant was slowed by foul trouble. And, suddenly, the mighty Los Angeles Lakers were not invincible.
Chris Webber had 29 points and the Sacramento bench finally came alive, sparking an 18-4 run in the fourth quarter, as the Kings defeated the Lakers 99-91 yesterday and stayed alive in the playoffs.
The Lakers won the first two games by comfortable margins in Los Angeles. Game 4 in the best-of-five series is tomorrow night at Sacramento.
O'Neal had 21 points and 17 rebounds, but went eight for 22 from the field and five for 14 from the foul line. Bryant, who picked up his fourth foul early in the third period, had 16 of his 35 points in the fourth quarter.
KINGS
Predrag Stojakovic had 19 points, and Tony Dalkel added 11 as
the Kings' self-proclaimed "Bench Mob," which had little success in the first two games of the series, outscored the Lakers' reserves 34-11.
Dell played most of the fourth quarter instead of Jason Williams, who scored 10 points but made several poor passes early in the game.
The Kings still face a harrowing task as they try to upset the best team in the NBA this season. Only 12 teams have rallied to win a series after trailing 2-0, and none since the Houston Rockets in 1995.
The scenario is familiar for the Lakers. In each of the previous three seasons, Los Angeles has won the first two games of its first-round series, then lost Game 3 and wrapped up the series in four games.
The Kings missed 11 of their first 13 shots and fell behind 15-7 midway through the first period. A three-point play by Glen Rice gave the Lakers a 27-17 lead late in the first quarter.
The Kings hit eight of their next 11 shots, responding with a 13-3 run and tying the game at 30-30 on a jumper by Stojakovic, but the Lakers answered with a 9-0 run.
Sacramento opened the fourth quarter with a 7-1 run, taking its first lead of the game on a 3-pointer by Stojakovic with 9:43 remaining after Delk twice kept the possession alive with offensive rebounds. Notes
Notes:
Kings assistant coach Pete Carril was resting comfortably in a hospital yesterday, recovering from a minor heart attack Saturday.
Sacramento reserve forward Tyrone Corbin sprained his left knee while colliding with teammate Jon Barry in the second quarter and did not return.

Reception honors minority students
Event allows interaction with KU administrators

writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
A formal gathering of minority students and University administrators resulted in informal conversation among the groups.
The Chancellor's Reception, in honor of University of Kansas minority students, last night at the Kansas Union was sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center.
"It's a minority reception that gives students of color an opportunity to network with faculty and staff members," said Kelly Martinez, program assistant for the center.
About 50 minority students attended the reception to talk about their experiences at the University and what their respective organizations have done and are planning.
Shelly Bointy
"I'm here because we're a cultural organization on campus, and our numbers are small and visibility is low."
Lawrence senior
The University began having this kind of reception last year, said David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs.
He said he thought there were three or four similar gatherings at Chancellor Robert Hemenway's house last year.
"We had a separate evening for each of the major minority groups," he said. "This works better, though, because it allows them to meet and talk to each other."
Ambler also said the reception gave students a chance to interact with administrators, something all students should have.
"This is also a University retention effort," he said. "Sometimes having a personalized experience will make a difference in how you feel. You can have the best instruction in the world, but if people have a negative outlook, that's their perspective."
Ambler said he had talked to some members of the Asian American Student Union about a trip to a leadership conference they took part in earlier this semester with 15 other universities.
Alton Scales, director of multicultural affairs, said having a chance to meet administrators was one benefit of the reception.

Hemenway:

"People can meet the administrators and see that they're warm people," he said.
He also said it was a chance to recognize what the students had accomplished this semester.
Students shared with administrators and
each other information about what their groups were doing.
Bointy said the reception was a good way to meet with other cultural groups and talk about plans and possible collaborations.
"I'm here because we're a cultural organization on campus, and our numbers are small and visibility is low," said Shelley Bointy, Lawrence senior and co-president of First Nations Student Association, a Native-American campus group.
one said her group already was planning for the Big 12 Native American Leadership Conference at the University next April.
A chance to meet and chat with "the man himself" — Hemenway — also was a reason for students to go, said Conway Ekpo, Lawrence senior and president of National Pan-Hellenic Council.
Hemenway said he talked with students about a variety of subjects.
"This gives me a chance to get to know students better, and there are a lot of excellent minority students at KU," he said. "People appreciate that the Office of Multicultural Affairs cares about students."

A Humble History
An unassuming stone barn stands as the oldest building on campus, but its future remains in doubt
Story by Mindie Miller
A million fragments of University history lie in a mass grave on West Campus.
tory he is a master in the name of progress, Old Fraser Hall, Old Blake Hall and Old Robinson gym were KU's first architectural generation in the late 19th century. They're gone now, dumped in an overgrown ravine west of the Lied Center. Today, the building that once pumped power to them and all of the University's original campus still stands at the southeast foot of Mount Oread. But not for long.
The oldest building on campus could soon join the rubble pile.
soon join the Historians fondly refer to it as the old power plant or the old boiler house. Facilities Operations personnel call it the old stone barn or the gardeners shack. At this point, assigning a name seems superfluous. The University plans
to raze the 113-year-old building as soon as it gets the money together.
Historic preservationists and others affiliated with the University of Kansas don't want to see that happen.
"It's my darling," said Sandra Wiechert, KU alumna and a founding member of the Historic Mount Oread Fund. "It just looks like it holds many secrets and many tales."
the tale of the boiler house begins in 1887, when the University spent $16,000 to replace its first power plant. John G. Haskell, Kansas' first state architect, designed the new building, and a Lawrence contractor built it from Oread limestone quarried on site. The finished structure rose two stories and supported a five-story brick steam tower.
Only a fragment of that original structure remains today. It sits back from the northwest corner of Sunnyside Avenue

On March 22, 1898, lightning struck the power plant, starting a fire that destroyed much of the building's interior. The University reconstructed the building as a one-story boiler house. But its walls are from the original 1887 structure, making it the oldest building on campus.

A study released last week links beer prices with the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Photo illustration by Jason Dailey/KANSAN
Study links cheap beer, STD statistics
Bv Warisa Chulindra
By Wanisa Chukwu
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For many University of Kansas students, living on tight budgets means that when party time comes around, cheap beer is a must.
But a study released last week by the Centers for Disease and Prevention cites cheap beer as the leading cause of the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
The report suggests that by increasing the tax of a six-pack of beer by 20 cents, the rate of gonorrhea could decrease by as much as 9 percent.
The study was based on comparisons of gomorrhea rates and alcohol policies in all states from 1981 to 1995. Researcher's chose gomorrhea for the study because it is one of the most common venereal diseases, long-term statistics were available and the disease is evenly soread among the states.
Out of 36 states that raised taxes on cheap beer, gonorrhea rates among 15 to 19-year-olds dropped in 24. Twenty-six states saw a decline in gonorrhea in the 20- to 24-year-old age group. Rates dropped more among men than women.
Julie Francis, health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said she thought it would take a significant tax increase to affect drinking behavior.
Vanessa Stucky, Newton junior, said she didn't think the study made sense.
"But I don't think a small increase would probably change much behavior or opinion unless it was by several dollars," Francis said.
"It doesn't matter how expensive the beer is," she said. "It's how much you drink and how you handle it."
Larry Johnson, manager at Cork and Barrel Wine and Spirits, 3514 Clinton Parkway, said he thought that the study made a generalization
"People who usually buy cheap beer aren't as classy," Johnson said. "The lower-class person is probably not as hygienically clean and more promiscuous anyway."
keystone Light and Natural Light are two of the cheaper buys, but these aren't necessarily the most popular beers among college students. Johnson said.
Mike Parks, Newton junior, said taste rather than price determined the beer he bought. Parks said that as an employee at Ray's Discount Party Center, 25th and Iowa streets, he knew people sometimes had to change their selection as they were checking out.
"A lot of them come in and try to get Bud Light," Parks said. "But they don't have enough money, so the alternative is usually Natural Light."
Francis said people who drank excessively put themselves at risk of making decisions they normally wouldn't, such as being sexually active or not using protection properly.
Parks said he thought less drinking would lead to fewer one-night stands.
"It doesn't matter what kind of beer you're drinking; it does the same thing," he said. "After three or four beers, it all starts tasting the same."

"Rumors like that fly around all the time, but there's nothing official," Walker said.
Nikki Newland, staff member for KU Info, said that during the weekend, KU Info received nearly 20 calls about Spears coming to Kansas.
"They all said they heard a rumor that Britney Spears was coming to KU, and they wanted to know if it was true,"
Newland said. "One guy that he wished it was Christina Aguilera instead."
Newland said that as far as she knew, the rumor had not been substantiated
A media representative for Spears at her label, Jive Records, could not be reached for comment yesterday.
According to www.peeps.com, a Web site run by Jive Records, Spars is scheduled to appear on The Rosie O'Donnell Show May 12. On May 13, she will be the musical guest on Saturday Night Live. Both shows are filmed in New York.

naid. "I think you did it quite well."
The Student Senate media board allocated funding Sunday afternoon for next year. The University Daily Kansan and KJHK 9.0.7 each will get $62,275. KUJH Channel 14 has said it does not want funding so that it can remain independent of Senate, said Erin Daw, media board chairwoman.
J. D. Jenkins, CLAS senator and board member, said that KJHK and the Kansan had asked that their funding be split 50-50.

The third applicant, the Kaw Valley Independent, was given $5,500 because the alternative media board was disbanded, allowing alternative media sources to ask the media board for funding as well.

LAWRENCE
Two students cited after party blackout
A case of beer and a claw hammer started a chain of events Saturday that ended with Lawrence police issuing notices to appear in court to two KU students.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said a resident assistant at Naismith Hall saw one of his residents at about 11:30 p.m. Saturday carrying a 12-pack of beer toward his room, where he and his roommate were having a party. The RA confronted the resident about the beer, which is not allowed in public areas of the hall.
The resident refused to cooperate with the RA, Wheeler said, so the RA went to the utilities room and turned off the lights to the resident's room. When the resident returned to his room and discovered the power had been cut, he went to the locked utilities room and pried the door open with a claw hammer and turned on the power.
The resident caused $300 damage to the door. Police issued notices to appear on charges of criminal damage to property and disorder conduct to an 18-year-old student and a 19-year-old student, both Naismith Hall residents.
Police still investigating death of homeless man
Lawrence police are asking for help in tracking down the driver in a hit-and-run early Saturday morning.
An unidentified suspect struck John Lowe, a 38-year-old Lawrence transient, with a vehicle about 2:30 a.m. behind the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St.
Police found Lowe's body in the gutter along Mississippi Street where an east-west alley meets the street. A preliminary investigation indicated that Lowe's body was struck in a north-south alley west of Ninth Street, dragged around the corner, and deposited where the alley met Mississippi.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said evidence showed that the vehicle continued north on Mississippi. Police do not know whether the hit-and-run was accidental or intentional and still are trying to locate and interview witnesses.
"It's hard to believe someone doesn't know something," said Sgt. Dave Anderson of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police are asking anyone with information about what may have happened to call CrimeStoppers at 843-TIPS.

needed to keep a man from destroying marijuana, but the man said officers violated the Constitution's Fourth Amendment ban on unreasonable searches and seizures.
WASHINGTON — Taking on a police search and seizure case, the Supreme Court said yesterday it would decide whether officers could keep people from going into their homes alone while police got a search warrant.

Supreme Court to hear search and seizure case
The justices will hear arguments in the case this fall, and a decision is expected next year.
Illinois prosecutors said police
"Police should not be able to detain you and keep you from re-entering your own home," attorney Deanne F. Jones, representing Charles McArthur of Sullivan, Ill., said in a telephone interview vesterday.
However, assistant Illinois attorney general Colleen Griffin said, "There was probable cause to believe he had this contraband in his house."
The dispute began in April 1997 when two Sullivan police officers accompanied Tera McArthur to retrieve her belongings from a trailer home she shared with McArthur, her husband. When she came outside, she told police he had marijuana under the couch.
An officer knocked on the door, and McArthur came outside, denied he had drugs and told police they could not search without a warrant. During the two hours it took to get a warrant, police did not let McArthur re-enter his home except for a few times when an officer accompanied him and stood inside the door.
When an officer returned with a warrant, police said they conducted a search and found marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
Navigation systems to be more accurate
WASHINGTON — Global positioning devices used to steer cars,飞 planes or find missing skiers and hikers will be given pinpoint accuracy previously available only to the military under an order President Clinton signed yesterday.
Until now, civilians using a U.S.-built network of satellites for navigation got a less accurate reading than the military out of fear that potential enemies could use the system to target missiles.
The military still will use an encrypted, highly accurate version of the system for guiding precision weaponry such as the missiles used in the Persian Gulf War and last year's Balkan air strikes.
"Police, firemen, emergency crews will now be able to respond more accurately to exactly where help is needed," said Neal Lane, the White House science adviser.
The change will make satellite navigation devices people already own 10 times more accurate, Lane said, and will not require the purchase of new machines.
The difference will mean satellite navigation can be used to track a missing person to an area about the size of a tennis court. Until now, the area of intense search would have been more like a football field.

Walk to aid multiple sclerosis patients
By Warisa Chulindra writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
People will have the opportunity to raise money to benefit those with multiple sclerosis at the MS Walk from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at "Dad" Perry Park, Monterey Way and Harvard Road.
The event is one of the largest fund-raisers for the Mid-America Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society, which serves 105 counties in eastern Kansas and western Missouri. Similar walks will take place in 13 other Kansas cities and towns.
About 250 people participated in the Lawrence walk last year, raising $16,961. Overall, the branch raised more than $90,000 and hopes to raise $100,000 this year.
"It's raising money and awareness for a disease that they have no known cure, no known cause for the disease," said Emily Fosha, chairwoman for the Lawrence MS Walk. "You can wake up one day and feel tingly and numb and not be able to move your body at the very beginning of your life. It's devastating."
Vicki Collie, Lawrence junior and Hawks for Health coordinator, said the walk was important in raising
awareness.
"I don't think many people know about multiple sclerosis and the widespread effect it's had on community members and even KU students," she said.
About one third of a million Americans have MS. People usually are diagnosed with the chronic, often disabling disease of the central nervous system between the ages, of 20 and 40.
In the 40 counties the eastern Kansas branch of the Multiple Sclerosis Society serves, about 5,000 people suffer from the disease.
Of the money raised, 60
percent will be used locally, and 40 percent will go toward national research, said Sheri Daudet, branch manager of the eastern Kansas society.
"We're just now seeing a lot of promising research," she said. "In the meantime, it's important to support the people with the disease."
Three injections — Avonex, Betaseron and Copaxone — help slow the progression of the disease by 20 to 25 percent.
"This really has been a breakthrough for us," Daudet said. "Twenty to 30 percent may be the difference between walking and being in a wheelchair."
MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
The MS Walk will be from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Dad "Perry" Park, Monterey Way and Harway Road. Participants may choose to walk nine, six or three miles. The three-mile path is handicap-accessible.
Registration begins at 8 a.m.
Participants also may register
for the walk by logging onto
www.nmss.org.
There is no minimum pledge, although $100 must be collected to qualify for a T-shirt. Volunteers also are needed. If interested, call Emily Fosha at 832-1731.

Aurora Marin will travel to Copenhagen, Denmark, this summer to present her research about the diplocaulus amphibian to the American Society of Limonology and Oceanography conference.
Marin. Leoti senior, said she credited the McNair Scholar's Program for allowing her the time to do the research on the ancient animal.
"I just feel like I truly benefited from the program," she said.
Marin and 10 other University of Kansas seniors will be honored at the McNair
Scholars Program Awards and Recognition Banquet at 5:30 today at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
The program allows students from low-income families and minority students who are the first in their families to attend college the chance to engage in research as they would do at the graduate level.
Robert Rodriguez, academic services coordinator, said the idea was to prepare students for the future.
"The goal of the program is to prepare them to enter and succeed in graduate school," he said.
It also provides students with test-taking workshops and tutoring to prepare them
for the Graduate Record Examination. Another integral part of the program is faculty mentors, who work with the scholars when doing their research and help them network in their chosen field.
The program is named for Ronald McNair, who was the second African American in space and was on the space shuttle Challenger when it exploded.
Rodriguez said the program had no set deadlines for applying. He said it was set up for iuniors and seniors.
"The ideal time to enter is at the beginning of their junior year," Rodriguez said.

"All my scores should go up from where they are now," she said.
During the summer, Thomas said she will use the $2.400 the program provides for summer research to survey parents' perceptions of their children with autism.
Rodriguez said everybody involved with the program was excited to recognize the graduating group of seniors because of the level of success they had had with the program.
"We're really proud of this class in particular," he said.
4 students may wax fire trucks for role in courtroom break-in
By Sara Shepherd
Kansan staff writer
An evening at a casino earlier this month may lead to a stint waxing fire trucks for four members of a KU fraternity.
According to an informational report from the KU Public Safety Office, the four students had been removed from the Argosy Casino in Riverside on the evening of April 13 because they were drunk and creating problems.
The KU Public Safety Office was contacted April 14 by an officer from the Riverside, Mo., Police Department for assistance locating four KU students who allegedly were involved with an incident there.
Police transported them to Riverside City Hall to wait for a ride. While there, some of the students were videotaped breaking into the city courtroom, where they stole a flag from behind the judge's bench and a suitcase containing confidential records.
The students later admitted their involvement, saying that it was a fraternity prank and that they wanted some souvenirs, the informational report said.
Mike Shelton, commander of the Riverside Department of Public Safety, said he couldn't release information about the incident because the students didn't commit a crime. No reports were made and no charges were filed, he said.
"Basically, it's just a minor situation that was taken care of," he said. "It was something that was handled internally. We just asked them to correct the situation, and they were kind enough to do that for us."
Shelton said that the students offered to make amends for their actions but that he had not discussed the options with them further.
However, information from the KU Public Safety Office said the four would perform community service by waxing Riverside's fire trucks.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said Shelton contacted the KU department, requesting that they contact the suspects. In turn, the suspects contacted Riverside police. The KU Public Safety Office is not investigating the incident.

Student Senate Judicial Board never has been used, lacks utility
Student Senate has decided to breathe new life into the Senate Judicial Board, but this might prove to be a waste of time. There is confusion about the role of the Judicial Board in campus affairs and about the fact that Senate might be able to spend its resources on other projects.
One of the problems with the Judicial Board is that, year after year, it does not get much support. There seems to be talk every year about making the board do something substantial, but that talk quickly dies down when the school year is under way. This is probably because the board is not useful compared to other parts of student government to which Senate gives more attention.
Evaluation of Judicial Board occurs almost every spring but quickly dies down
One of the possible roles of the Judicial Board is to mediate disputes between campus groups and provide an appeals process for decisions made by other student governmental bodies. This might be the best possible function of the board, if it were workable. It seems fair to offer another-
er appeals process for elections fines and other disciplinary actions. However, the Judicial Board would limit itself simply to procedural questions. For example, this means that if someone could prove that he or she was not guilty, it would not matter because the board only would be concerned with whether the original hearing was conducted properly.
The traditional lack of utility is a good signpost for the potential of this body. It has not had much bearing on campus issues in the past, nor does it seem that it will in the future. Senate can spend its time more profitably somewhere else.
Brett Watson for the editorial board
Parents shouldn't make curriculum
A Lawrence parent organization, Parents for Objective Science and History, made a presentation to the members of the Lawrence school board April 24, voicing its objections to evolution being taught as fact rather than theory at Free State and Lawrence High Schools.
After it reviewed the biology textbook used in these schools, organization members concluded that the book was at some points confusing and that it left certain issues unresolved. The organization decided that a good measure to address these weaknesses would be to draft worksheets and distribute them to teachers. The worksheets would complement the book and clarify points that the organization deems unclear or with which it disagrees.
School boards should listen to parents' suggestions, but there should be a limit
The organization does not view the teaching of evolution in public schools in a favorable light. At best, it thinks that evolution should be taught as theory, and not as fact.
The right of parents to have a voice in issues concerning their children's education can by no means be disputed. If a textbook is considered in any way incomplete or confusing, parents should indeed bring forward their concerns and suggestions.
However, there is a limit to the extent of the influence these suggestions should be allowed to have.
Creating worksheets and determining what exactly students should be taught somehow exceeds this limit. Parents can and should express their objections, but the final decision of what students are taught cannot fall under their jurisdiction. Parents can be a very diverse body. The organization cannot claim to represent all the parents in the area.
It is essential that there be specific standards about what students are taught, especially about scientific subjects as important and as controversial as evolution. Although standards should be flexible and open to parental suggestions, parents cannot have the final say or put together worksheets to be taught in classrooms.

Perspective
Reno's biggest mistake was waiting for too long
It has not been a proud few weeks for the American political establishment. Republicans and Democrats, congressional leaders and administration appointees all have managed to make themselves look like fools because of a 6-year-old boy.
because of a busy boy. Let us begin by examining Attorney General Janet Reno.
Our attorney general has not handled this situation well. Handing over a photogenic child to the Cuban exile community was somewhat akin to tossing raw meat to hungry wolves. Reno is from Miami; she should have known just how fanatical the exiles can be about Cuba.
Mike
Loader columnist opinion@kansan.com
Who urged the Miami family to file for custody? Reno did at the beginning of this
mess. Who gave them advice about how to go about doing it? Reno did.
Having set up the media circus, she then sat on her hands for months. When it became clear that Elian was being used as some sort of obscene political football, when crowds were gathering outside and chanting day in and day out, when there clearly was a dangerous situation brewing
I suspect that the Waco and Ruby Ridge disasters had scared her off, made her willing to try patience instead of force. In this case, she waited too long.
When she did act, however, she acted well. A team of armed agents swept in, took the boy and left. No one was hurt.
The law was enforced. And a young boy was taken away from an exploitative group of political activists and reunited with his father. It could have been done a long time ago with less trauma and hassle, but once it was done, it was done well.
This brings us to the congressional Republican leadership. I cannot recall a time when the party of Lincoln had been cursed with such suicidal
hypocrites to lead what should be the saner, more rational, more moral section of the country. Apparently, it is not American to enforce the law.
Apparently, it is not American for a father to have custody of his son.
apparently, courts, and not ties of blood, should determine the fate of our children.
Apparently, it is a horrifying thing for a 6-year-old to be rescued from people illegally holding him — rescued at the request of his father.
Apparently, police officers and the men and women of the Immigration and Naturalization Services — the people who patrol our borders and keep the nation safe — are jackbooted thugs for doing what the law authorizes and commands them to do: rescue a son at the anguished urging of his father.
These are Republican sentiments? I think not.
That party supports family values. That party supports the rule of law. That party always has strongly advocated parental rights.
Unless, of course, you're Trent Lott. Or Henry Hyde. Or Tom DeLay.
Or Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Penn.), who thinks Congress should examine "the propriety of the federal government breaking into a child's house." Specter felt no such urgent need in 1985, when police in his home state of Pennsylvania fire-bombed a house to flush out a radical group up inside. The bombing killed four children, destroyed more than 50 homes and made more than 250 neighbors homeless. Specter refused to criticize the action. None of the dead children had their very own political lobbies.
"Republicans trust parents and believe that they, not courts and lawyers, know what is best for their children," says the 1992 Republican platform.
Perhaps the attorney general should be more swift to enforce the law. And perhaps the Republican leadership should act like Republicans, instead of like sharks who smell blood in the political waters. They wind up biting their own party and doing everyone a lot of harm in the process.

Feedback
I was disheartened to read the March 31 guest column by Heather Woodson in the Kansan that egregiously misrepresented events that occurred at a local establishment.
Just doing our jobs
Smoke-filled bars, loud music and hostile crowds. Underage drinkers knowingly breaking the law — frequently assisted by adults of legal drinking age. These are just a few of the typical obstacles Alcoholic Beverage Control Enforcement agents face when working to uphold the state's liquor laws.
All too often, underage drinkers accuse big bad enforcement agents of picking on poor innocent minors. Well, the last time I checked, it was illegal for a minor to "possess, consume, obtain, purchase or attempt to purchase alcoholic liquor or cereal malt beverage." State statutes are quite clear. The ABC is responsible for enforcing the law. Our policies are designed and our agents are trained to react with the least amount of force required.
I realize that there are two sides to every story. However, I would like to point out that agents observed the minor in question with an alcoholic drink. Also, patrons who were not involved got involved and made a bad situation worse. During the incident, someone attempted to trip an agent. That type of interference will not be tolerated and will normally result in an arrest.
Many Kansans appear to support underage drinking and portrait agents as the bad guys. That is unfortunate. Our officers are already challenged to enforce the law with far too few resources for the number establishments and violators.
I challenge all Kansas citizens to acknowledge and respect the law while supporting enforcement efforts to uphold it. If citizens of legal drinking age, liquor licensees and law enforcement agents all were cooperating and complying, we never would have situations like the one described in the column.
Robert Longino ABC acting director
Even if there aren't, in the interest of accuracy, I must point out an error in the political cartoon on April 6. Cute, but wrong. Steve Trever asserts that Gore and Bush are the only remaining candidates. Nay, it's not so! Alan Keyes has not withdrawn from the campaign! Let's not expunge his name from the list before he decides to do so. Until then, he deserves a fair hearing.

Missed opportunity
Once again, the Kansan has displayed a lack of equal representation in the coverage of stories at the University of Kansas. The National Pan-Hellenic Council performed its Annual Step Show Friday Night at the Lied Center. Would an article on the front page have been too much for the Kansan to provide? And even though the Kansan did run an article buried within the pages, there was not even a picture of them practicing or preparing for the show.
Rose Wagner office manager, Educational Opportunity Programs
I know that you cannot possibly cover everything that goes on at the University, but equal representation is of what I am speaking. The annual Rock Chalk Revue covered the paper for a full week. The Kansan even had a separate section devoted to the annual show. NPHC students work just as hard on their show as the other students. A whole semester, if not more, was spent to prepare for this great event. This is what would be considered their Rock Chalk Revue.
I realize that many of our readers are registered voters in Kansas, so it may not seem worth the space to print this letter. However, from the allknowing Web, I've learned that there are still presidential primaries scheduled for several states. Are there any students here registered to vote in Indiana, Kentucky, Nebraska, etc.?
Crucial vote coming
The editorial board is incorrect in arguing "human rights violations take place in North Korea on a scale similar to China's." According to Amnesty International, it is difficult to know the level of human rights abuses in North Korea because the "situation cannot be adequately monitored because of government restrictions on access to the country." There are serious human rights concerns in North Korea, to be sure, but not to the extent that there are in the People's Republic of China, where since the end of 1998, "the Chinese government has instigated a massive crackdown on peaceful dissent, resulting in thousands of arbitrary arrests, torture, religious repression and executions." Thus, the United States has been engaged in normal trade relations with China for many years, and despite this cooperation, the human rights situation in China actually has deteriorated in recent years. The government of China has suffered no punishment for human rights abuses and instead has been rewarded with favorable trade relations. At first glance, engaging China might seem like the best way to improve human rights in that country, but clearly this has not worked. History has shown that separating economics and human rights only leads to worsening conditions in China. The House should send a message to the government of China by voting against DPRP with China.
As was noted in an April 26 editorial, there is a very crucial vote coming up in the House of Representatives regarding permanent trade relations with China. First, as a clarification of the editorial, Permanent Normal Trade Relations (PNTR) status for China used to be called Most Favored Nation Status (MFN). Congress has voted in favor of MFN status with China for years now, and if Congress passes PNTR, it just means that MFN status will be locked in for years, without annual congressional renewal. Second, China is very different from North Korea in terms of the human rights situation.

KU scientist examines pesticides
200-foot-deep wells may show contamination
By Jennifer Knopp Special to the Kansan
Martios Sophocleous has dug a hole for himself.
In fact, he'd dug three holes 200 feet deep in western Kansas hoping to discover how fast pesticides contaminate our ground water.
The holes, or wells, drilled in March and April are in the Ogallala aquifer in southern Finney County and the Cimarron National Grasslands in Cimarron County. An aquifer is a geological formation that contains enough water to extract for human consumption. The Ogallala aquifer extends under most of western
Kansas and provides 95 percent of the water used for drinking and agriculture in that area.
Sophocleous, geohydrologist at the Kansas Geological Survey, along with scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory and Kansas State University's Department of Agronomy collected core samples of soil, sand and gravel from the aquifer. These samples will be studied to determine how easily water moves through them.
Sophocleous also has installed sensors called advanced tensiometers to measure the rate pesticides and other contaminants descend from the ground surface into the Oaallala.
"The interesting aspect of this project is that we are using state-of-the art technology," Sophocleus said. "Ten years ago, we could not do this."
The tensiometers, which
Sophocleous will begin collecting data from in May, are on loan from the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory.
Sophocleous said a lot of fertilizers contained nitrogen, which could be harmful to pregnant women and babies.
Terry Shistar, adjunct professor of environmental studies, said that central Kansas had unsafe levels of nitrogen in ground water and that even Lawrence had high levels of Atrazine, a herbicide, in the drinking water.
"This is a matter of controversy." Shislar said. "Though it is considered to be a carcinogen, it is not regulated that way."
Shistar said that the Lawrence water would be easier to clean up because it came from surface waters, not ground water. She said Lawrence got its water from alluvial aquifers, which are fed by the Kansas River.
"If the contamination gets into

the Ogallala, it's down there, and it's going to stay down there," she said.
Sophocleous said that a certain amount of pesticide was acceptable in ground water but that if he discovered unacceptable levels when the study was completed in two years, he would notify local and state agencies.
He said that these agencies would talk to farmers and offer them advice about using fewer pesticides.
Online companies can make job search easier
By Missy Songer Special to the Kansan
With help from the Internet, the job search has become easier for upcoming graduates.
There are more than 100 job search Web sites that allow job seekers to post their resume and search databases for job opportunities. Sites such as Monster.com, Vault.com, CareerMosaic.com, Jobtrack.com, Headhunter.net and CareerPath.com are among the many Web sites that attract both recruiters and potential employees.
Natasha Franz, Wichita senior, thinks that job search Web sites are very helpful.
"One advantage of an online job search is that you can find jobs that are not displayed in the local paper," Franz said. "I pick out specific jobs that I am interested in and cities I would like to work in and search for jobs.
"Monster.com allows you to create your own search agent," Franz said. "You enter what job you are looking for and Monster will search the database for you. You don't
have to be online when it does this.
You can customize Monster to send
you daily, weekly or biweekly
emails telling you about new jobs.
Many of these sites allow the job seeker to store their resume, cover letters and references online. For those new to the job hunt there are sample cover letters and resumes. There also are tips on how to interview and determine what salary to ask for.
Once the job seeker has posted their resume they are able to search the database for job listings. As they find jobs that interest them, they are able to apply with the click of the mouse. There is no need to print off thousands of resumes and cover letters and waste money in postage. The resumes are sent via e-mail.
If the job seekers desire, their resumes can be made public. All recruiters have access to the resume, along with contact information. Resumes can also be made confidential if the job seeker does not want current employers to know they are in the market for a new job.
The University Career and Employment Services has several forms of online job searching available. Announcements of job listing by employers and other university career offices are sent to UCES. These jobs are posted online for students to access. The job bank may be accessed free from the UCES office, but a $25 fee is charged to view the list off campus. Most schools within the university also offer job listings online. There is usually a fee to access the information.
Ashley Hoynowski, Atlanta senior, is looking to relocate to Denver.
"Online job searches allow you to find jobs in other cities that five years ago you couldn't find," she said. "I have had several calls from potential employers that are 500 miles away. I didn't even know these companies existed."
Hoynowski said that online job searches have saved her time and money.
"It would cost me tons of money to send resumes in the mail," she said.
"This way I can get a lot more
"It would cost me tons of money to send resumes in the mail. This way I can get a lot more resumes out in half the time."

resumes out in half the time."
Most places do not charge to search the databases or post a resume. They make their money by charging recruiters to post jobs.
In return, the recruiters are able to view enormous databases of potential employees. "Now what college student turns down something that is free?" Franz said.
Both Franz and Hoynowski have had several interviews with companies that they found online.
"Now that graduation is less than a month away I look to be hearing from more recruiters," Hoynowski said. "At least I hope so."
ABC blacked out for millions because of cable dispute
The Associated Press
Instead of ABC programming,
Time Warner customers saw a
message saying, "Disney has
taken ABC away from you" on
the channel that normally carries
WABC-TV in New York.
NEW YORK — In an escalating corporate dispute, ABC was blacked out in the homes of 3.5 million Time Warner cable customers around the country yesterday — just as the "sweeps" period was beginning and Regis Philbin was about to quiz celebrities on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
Across the country, the only way many viewers could see ABC shows was the old-fashioned way — by disconnecting the cable and rigging up an antenna — or finding a friend with a satellite dish.
The Walt Disney Co., ABC's corporate parent, is fighting over how much money Time Warner must compensate Disney for the right to carry some of its cable channels.
The affected customers were in seven markets served by ABC-owned television stations. About 1.5 million were in the New York
City area, 665,000 in Houston and 440,000 in Raleigh-Durham, N.C.
Smaller numbers of customers in the Los Angeles; Philadelphia; Toledo, Ohio; and Fresno, Calif., markets also lost service.
The blackout was particularly ill-timed for ABC, America's topped broadcaster. Its most popular show, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, began its first celebrity week yesterday. Viewers who saw the opening night of the miniseries Arabian Nights on Sunday risked missing the conclusion.
In the coming weeks, ABC is airing the Kentucky Derby, the Daytime Emmy Awards and virtually all of the season finales of its regular series.
Each side angrily blamed the other for the blackout, and each said FCC law was on its side: Time Warner said it was against the law to carry a station without a transmission deal, while ABC said a cable operator cannot stop airing a broadcast station during
Disney appealed for help from the Federal Communications Commission yesterday.
The sweeps, a period when ratings are used to set local advertising rates, began Thursday and run until Mav 24.
The two sides had no negotiations scheduled but were to meet with FCC staff members late yesterday.
Preston Padden, executive vice president of governmental relations at Disney, said it would be a lie to blame Disney for pulling the plug.
Disney had offered a series of deadline extensions after the original national transmission deal expired Dec. 31. The most recent deadline, offered in March, expired at 12:01 a.m. yesterday.
"These people are arrogant manipulators," Padden said. "Some deranged individual has deprived all of these people of ABC."
"It's abundantly clear to anybody who understands the real situation — this is about extorting money from cable customers," said Michael Luftman, Time Warner spokesman.
Time Warner said Disney's demands to carry the Disney Channel and separate cartoon and soap opera networks on its system would have added $300,000 in costs to its customers; Disney said it had offered a fair market price.
Since the blackout affected less than 4 percent of the nation's 100 million TV homes, the dispute wasn't likely to shake ABC's on the top spot in the season's ratings.,said Jon Mandel of Grey Advertising. But advertisers were expected to demand ABC compensate them for the lost customers, he said.
It wasn't the first time such a dispute had deprived cable customers of their favorite stations, but it was the largest outage, said Simon Applebaum, senior editor of Cablevision magazine. Earlier this year, a fight left some 400,000 Cox Communications customers in the Washington, D.C., area without the Fox network for a week.
ABC filed a petition for emergency relief from the FCC. It was unclear what the commission might do. Typically, the FCC does not get involved in private contractual matters.

Deaths shake University of Georgia
The Associated Press
Memorial service held for 11 students
ATHENS, Ga. — The University of Georgia student newspaper usually is filled on Monday mornings with stories of overzealous weekend partying or sports results. But this semester, death has pushed it all off the front page.
Since January, 11 young students on this campus of 30,000 have died of various causes — a heart attack, cancer, a drug overdose, a wreck on the way home for Easter and a fraternity prank gone wrong.
"This is not a tally sheet. Each one of these people is the most important thing."
The campus has been shaken by so much death among those so young. Three weeks ago, the death toll was eight, and school officials scheduled a memorial service at sunset yesterday. Since the scheduling, three more

"It's profoundly sad," said Rick Rose, an assistant vice president whose job is to offer the university's condolences to parents and friends of students who die.
students have died.
The University of Georgia never has lost more than eight students in one term. Any more than three in a semester is out of the ordinary.
At yesterday's service, the chapel bell, usually silent except for victorious football Saturdays and late-night student pranks, was to toll once for each lost life. "This is not a talot声" Dose

The idea, administrators said,

number.
said. "Each one of these people is the most important thing."
"I still can't get over it," said Travis Denison, a member of the university's student government whose friend Chris Moseley was killed in a car accident March 11.
As the toll climbed late in the semester, he said, students opened the campus paper every Monday almost expecting to read about another death.
"Every weekend they were dying." he said. "It's so hard to believe."
The students left behind mourning families across the state, from the beaches of St. Simons Island to the suburbs of Atlanta
Only one of the deaths received much attention outside this college town: Ben Grantham, a 20-year-old student from St. Simons Island, was killed in a late March car crash that authorities say

was a fraternity initiation prank. Grantham was riding in the cargo hold of an Alpha Tau Omega brother's sport-utility vehicle, handcuffed and possibly blindfolded, when the vehicle flipped and hit a tree, police said.
The most recent death was that of Katie Elizabeth Turner, a first-year graduate student from Columbus who died April 22 of lymphoma — the second student to die that weekend.
"All these students, they don't realize this of course, but we kind of think of them as more than just numbers." Rose said. "More than just names on a transcript. We get attached to them in ways they don't even realize."
Castro leads largest May Day march in years
The Associated Press
HAVANA — Fidel Castro took an active role in May Day festivities for the first time in years yesterday, marching in the parade and ending a speech with a cell phone call to Juan Miguel Gonzalez, who is fighting to bring his son, Elian, home to Cuba.
Castro grasped a Cuban flag and led hundreds of thousands of people through the streets of Havana.
The 73-year-old leader guided the crowd from Havana's Plaza of the Revolution to the U.S. Interests Section almost two miles away.
"Fidel! Fidel!" chanted the crowd, obviously delighted by his participation in the annual march that traditionally involves workers.
Earlier, Castro gave a speech before a crowd of hundreds of thousands. He praised the Cuban people for their tenacity during the fight to bring 6-year-old Elian home.
Despite his years, the graying leader walked briskly to the U.S. Interests Section. Castro spoke with Elian's grandmothers outside the American mission.
Although May Day marches in Cuba regularly draw hundreds of thousands of people, this one appeared to be the largest in years. The turnout reflected the importance the communist government has placed on its battle to bring Ellan back.
During his speech, Castro accused a Cuban-American terrorist mob of fighting to keep Elian in the United States.
Castro said he was not convinced that an appeals court in Atlanta, which has set a May 11 hearing, will rule in favor of Elian's father. Father and son are staying in the United States pending the hearing on a request by their Miami relatives for a political asylum hearing for the boy.
After the speech, Castro spoke by telephone with Juan Gonzalez as the crowd looked on.
"It is Juan Miguel," Castro said.
"On behalf of the children, of all the companions there, he sends a special greeting for all of our people." The crowd roared approval. Many in the crowd wore pictures of a smiling Ellian with his father pinned to their shirts.
C
It was Castro's first speech at a May Day celebration in years. During recent May 1 gatherings, Castro has presided over marches but has left the podium to labor

leaders and other top officials.
Eilan's case has absorbed Cubans and their government since Nov. 25, when the boy was found floating on an inner tube off the Florida coast following a boating accident that killed his mother and 10 others.
The castaway found himself at the center of an international custody battle. His Miami relatives are fighting to keep him in the United States, while his father is demanding to take the boy back to Cuba.
Elian was reunited with his father in Washington last week after a raid of the Miami relatives' home. Armed agents whisked the boy away and flew him to his dad. The raid has been criticized by the Miami relatives and many of their supporters in South Florida's Cuban-American community, as well as by conservative members of Congress.

Preservationists fighting to stop building's demolition

Sandra Wiechert, KU alumna and a founding member of the Historic Mount Oread Fund, is one of many historic preservationists who does not want to see the destruction of the 113-year-old boiler house.

In 1922, University maintenance crews began storing gravel and sand in the building, along with landscaping and gardening equipment. A sign on the building's east wall reads "gardeners."
Tom Lee, who worked on the University's grounds crew from 1963 until 1999, said he remembered when the sign went up in 1968.
"I helped hang that sign," he said. "We just drilled a couple holes in the stone and put some anchors in there. All the gardeners were proud of that."
He said the gardeners used to hang a wreath above the sign at Christmas and take group pictures.
Over the years, water has crept into the limestone walls, eroded the stones and weakened the mortar. Seasonal temperature changes have caused the walls to expand and contract, dislodging a few pieces of stone. A fire in 1990 damaged part of the roof and rendered one of the building's mezzanines unstable.
In 1991, an architectural consultant determined that parts of the building's roof and walls were defective and that it would cost far more to repair the building than to destroy it and construct a new one. The Board of Regents gave the University permission at its September 1991 meeting to tear down the building.
"That would be our yearly picture," he said. "Then we'd back and say 'Are these people still here?'"
Nine years later, the old boiler house still stands. But Mike Richardson, director of Facilities Operations, says it's only a matter of time before it goes.
"There are plans for that to be torn down," he said. "It's been funded twice, and those funds have been redirected to other projects."
A Cinderella story
"I think it's important to keep the oldest building there," she said.
He said funding likely would not be available until at least 2002. That could mean a reprieve for historic preservationists, like Wiechert, who want to change the University's mind about what the building's fate should be.
If the oldest building on campus were Spooner Hall, tearing it down wouldn't even be considered, she added.
In fact, Spooner Hall is the oldest academic building on campus. Wiechert said Spooner always captured attention because people thought it was more beautiful than the Cinderella boiler house.
I just feel kind of sorry for the boiler house because it's not the glamorous building," she said. "But it is the oldest building. Lots of times, University people just don't want to admit it. They say it's just a junk building or it's just for storage. But that's the building
that made everything else happen."
Aside from its importance as a power plant, preservationists believe the boiler house should be saved for what they see as its beauty and because it was designed by such a prominent architect.
Haskell designed Bailey Hall, which just celebrated its 100th anniversary. He also designed the original Fraser and Snow halls and the east wing of the Statehouse in Topeka. Of 35 Haskell buildings built in Lawrence, 10 survive, including the Douglas County Courthouse at 11th and Massachusetts streets.
An architectural gem
When the University tears down Haskell's oldest remaining work on campus, it plans to replace it temporarily with a parking lot. Wiechert said that parking lots were common replacements for old buildings and that the location of the boiler house made it even more imperative that it be preserved, rather than converted to parking.
"It's an ideal location," she said. "It's right at the foot of Mount Oread and the entrance to campus. That's another reason it should be saved and maintained because it's one of the first views that people will have."
Dennis Domer, former associate dean of architecture who was active in preservation projects around Douglas County, said it would be a big mistake to tear down the boiler house.
"To tear down even a fragment of that building - which it is just a fragment - would be a shame," said Domer, now the Distinguished Professor of Historic Preservation at the University of Kentucky. "That fragment is better than any new building on campus, including Dole and the law school. Tearing it down reflects a lack of imagination."
Domer, Wiechert and others want the University to adapt the boiler house and use it as a jumping-off point for another building.
Domer said a good architect could incorporate the building's arched facade into the design of a new building.
"It's a wonderful opportunity to integrate the old and the new," he said. "I think KU should not pass up this opportunity."
The art and design department wanted to convert the current building into studios for art students, but the University rejected that proposal. Future holds
What the future holds
University officials say there just isn't enough money to save the old boiler house.
The University has tried to compromise with those interested in saving the boiler house. Modig said the demolition consultant had worked with the Historic Mount Oread Fund to identify the historic components of the building and preserve them for use elsewhere.
"The demolition plan includes photographing, marking carefully, removing, palletizing and shrinkwrapping components like the arches so that those historical features of the facility are retained
"We're not seeing a lot of funding coming out of the state system right now," said Jim Modig, director of Design and Construction Management. "If funding is very difficult to get, we have to be very cost-effective in how we build our facilities to get the most we can for the funding available."
intact and can be reinstalled somewhere at a later date in the exact same configuration they were removed," he said. "So when we say raze the building, that's not just bulldoizing it down and taking it to the dump."
Domer said this compromise signaled a shift away from what he called the University's bad track record in historic preservation.
"The number of buildings that went down on campus in the '60s
and "70s was just unbelievable," he said. "They just bulldozed them and dumped them on West Campus in ravines. They were dumped over there as if they weren't anything and later buried under dirt. The depth of that rubble over there, which includes a lot of beautiful cut stone, was an incredible waste."
Lee said the gardeners had used some of the stone from the rubble pile to build a stone wall around Spencer Research Library and part of the bridge at the northwest end of Potter Lake.
Domer said that he and Karl Gridley, a member of the Historic Mount Oread Fund, took several beautiful pieces of cut stone off the surface of the rubble pile in the early '05, before the ravines filled with dirt and vegetation. Among the pieces Domer and Gridley saved were two carved lion heads that now reside in Marvin Hall.
But Keith Lawton, who served 34 years as vice chancellor for planning and development, said the buildings the University tore down in the '60s and '70s were stuarting its growth.
"The University had to grow," he said. "There was a main campus planning process in terms of the long-term use of land at the University. It also changed the location of functions on campus in many ways, which brought about the need for those buildings to not occupy those sites."
Modig said that he was sensitive
to the historical importance of the old boiler house but that the University was running out of areas on campus to build. The cost of incorporating the existing structure into a new building would be extremely high, he said.
Wiechert and Gridley would rather see the University practice the same kind of adaptive reuse it did when rebuilding Hoch Auditorium as Budig Hall. The auditorium - used by choirs, lecturers and the Kansas basketball team - burned in 1991 after lightning struck its roof. Most of the walls remained, however, and then-Chancellor Gene Budig led a crusade to preserve and restore the building's facade, which still flanks Jayhawk Boulevard.
But there's no high-profile leader to pick up the banner for the old boiler house.
Despite their efforts, preservationists are pessimistic about the building's future. Wiechert said the Historic Mount Oread Fund would protest its demolition but ultimately would be unable to raise enough money to save the building.
"It's burned twice, the roof has fallen in and the arches have been filled in, but I still think it's beautiful," she said. "It would be a shame to see it go."

Cultural exchange
German graduate student teaches English courses
By Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
Six-year-old Andrea Weis loved to sing along in English when she heard songs by Elvis Presley, Carole King and Janis Joplin in her native Germany.
"The English language sounded beautiful to me," Weis recalls more than 20 years later.
That early rapport with English flowered.
After years of formal English study and exposure to American culture while growing up in Germany, Weis not only is fluent in English, but she also is a graduate student in American Studies and a graduate teaching assistant in English at the University of Kansas.
"She brings in a lot of personal stories that help the class identify with the German culture," said Julie Mohart, Overland Park freshman.
That's not all. This semester, Weis is teaching an English course of her own design and on a subject close to her heart: German/American Literature and Film. It looks at how various literary texts and films treat it
complex relationship between Germany and the United States, with emphasis on World War II and the Cold War.
The course is a section of English 203, a composition and literature class based on special themes.
To compete for a teaching slot, a GTA in English must have a few years of teaching experience and also must submit a course proposal to the director of freshman and sophomore English, said Richard Hardin, professor and chairman of the English department.
Weis said she was glad to get the chance.
"I can relate to the topic not only on an academic level," she said, "but also on a cultural and personal level."
At the beginning of the semester, the class
studied Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five.
Other selected works include Billy Wilder's *One*, *Two*, *Three*, a fictional film that focuses on a Coca-Cola bottling plant in Berlin in 1961, and Bertolt Brecht's play *The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui*, which Weis said criticized German industrialists for backing Adolf Fidler in his power quest.
How is the course progressing?
In a recent class, Weis and about 25 students viewed a selection from Leni Riefenstahl's documentary film that showed Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympics in Munich. Afterward, they launched into a discussion of how the film related to several articles they had read.
"I get the impression it's going very well," Weis said. "I feel good about it because the students seem to be interested in a country other than their own."
"I really like this class," said Julie Mohart, Overland Park freshman. "It's different from a lot of my classes because we discuss a lot. She doesn't always know the answers. She really wants our input. I think it's a learning process for her and the class in general."
Bubbling with enthusiasm, Weis interlaced her observations with those of her students. Her frequent smiles and positive comments further energized the students.
Weis also complimented various students as she handed them their papers.
Weis concluded the class meeting on a triumphant note when she returned a set of papers.
"They were really good," she told the class. "I was so proud of you."
Ray Pence, Caspar, Wyo., graduate student, knows what a devoted teacher his colleague is.
"She truly cares about people, especially the students," Pence said. "GTAs as a group are some of the most committed people to
their students, and she particularly stands out."
Erika Ratzlaff, Buhler freshman, said she also appreciated Weis' receptiveness and commitment.
"I like the way she's very open to her students," Ratzallz said. "I went in to talk for 15 minutes about a paper and ended up chatting for an hour and a half."
Weis likes to resort to storytelling as well.
"She brings in a lot of personal stories that help the class identify with the German culture." Mohart said.
Weis grew up in former West Germany, which she said was heavily Americanized with McDonald's, Coca-Cola, billboards in English, rap music and Hollywood movies. She also made friends with American exchange students as well as soldiers stationed at military bases.
As a high school student, Weis began her formal study of English. She said she was more interested in English than French and other foreign languages. Reading literature in English was a pleasurable experience for her.
Weis sampled American culture firsthand in 1988 when she was 18. She visited several Western states with an uncle, who later moved to Oregon and became a horse trainer.
Eight years later, after having made two other U.S. trips, Weis came to Kansas as a recipient of a Graduate Direct Exchange scholarship. Graduate students at the University of Kansas and various foreign universities can participate in the exchange program. When Weis applied, she was studying at Germany's University of Mainz.
Weis liked it so much that she decided to stay after the year of her scholarship and become a degree-seeking student in the University of Kansas' master's program in American Studies.
"I felt like the scholarship here was more sound in the sense they used more up-to-date theory and methods," she said.
Todd Starke-Meyerring, a St. Paul, Minn., graduate student who shares an office with Weis, lauded her intellectual ability. He said she was a rigorous thinker who liked to go
into depth.
Weis' mastery of English has not gone unnoticed. Faculty members have had

much praise for her English skills.
"Both in her written work and in her conversation, I would not pick up that she is not a native speaker," said David M. Katzman, professor and chairman of the department of American Studies. "She has a command of idiomatic English that only native speakers have."
Yet Weis conceded that she didn't have a perfect mastery of English when she came to Kansas.
"It took me about a half year to figure out when it was appropriate to say 'right on,'" she said.
Weis also said that for a while she preferred not to speak German or hang out with other German exchange students but that had changed. Speaking her native tongue is more important to her now.
"It has a lot to do with your identity," Weis said. "There's only so much you can express about yourself in a foreign language."
In addition, Weis has taught German conversation classes to KU students.
As a KU student, Weis has returned three times to Germany. But going back hasn't been easy for her.
"The longer I live here, the stranger I feel going back home," she said.
Her sister, Susana, has referred to her jokingly as "the American."
Yet a fascination for American culture does seem to run in the family. Another sister, Nora, is into rap music, and her brother, Martin, loves basketball.
Although Weis misses her family, she doesn't plan to leave Kansas anytime soon. After completing her master's in American Studies, Weis will go for her doctorate as she prepares for a career in academia.
Weis hopes to land a teaching job at an American university. But she said she would consider teaching in Germany.
"It's most important I get to do something in the English language," she said. "I like speaking English. I enjoy teaching in English."

Teams vie for intramural title
Players excited by new location

Kanson Sportswriter
There may not have been too many Mark McGwire-type blasts, but for more than 700 University of Kansas students, the chance to compete for softball pride came last weekend at the Clinton Lake Sports Complex.
Five champions were crowned from the 65 teams entered, but many teams involved in the tournament were there to have fun and enjoy the weather.
Andy Parnell, supervisor for Recreation Services, said he spent about 15 to 20 hours at the tournament
and enjoyed every minute of it. Parnell rated this year's tournament as a vast improvement over last year's.
"It seemed that last year there were a lot of forfeits, and people just made excuses to not show up." Parnell said. "This year it looks like everyone is having fun. Softball is just a fun sport."
Parnell noted that the location of the tournament had everything to do with its success. Regular season games are played at Shenk Complex on 23rd and Iowa streets. The fields at Clinton Lake are equipped with dirt infields, fences, real pitching rubbers and bases. Parnell said the players often made comments about the quality of the fields.
"Having the tournament at Clinton Lake makes this tournament great," he said. "I can remember when the whole tournament was at the fields behind Watkins. It's so much better out here."
Hopefully we'll have it here next year."
The Big Hitter's Club, one of the many intramural squads, went undefeated throughout the regular season and was looking forward to playing on an actual field in the tournament. However, the team played worse under the better conditions and lost in its first game.
"It was so much better playing out at Clinton Lake," said Brian Weiser, Highland Park, Ill., freshman and member of the Big Hitter's. "Honestly, the field we've played on is a dump. It was so much easier to field ground balls. Too bad we couldn't field them today."
"We're going through some changes in our budget, but hopefully we'll be able to have the tournament out at
Jason Krone, assistant director for Recreation Services, said he was happy with the overall participation in the tournament.
Clinton again," Krone said. "Also, I'm real pleased at the attendance this year. We had about 20 less forfeits this year. Plus, the weather was great until late Sunday night."
The championship games were played late Sunday night in steady rain, Krone said.
"It was great to see the championship games play out last night," Krone said. "They were fighting to the end in the rain."
Delta Chi was victorious in the men's greek division late Sunday night, and Parnell said the competition in the greek division this year was intense.
"The greeks earn Hill points from the tournament results, so the action was pretty intense for their championship," Parnell said.
The members of the five championship teams earned intramural T-Shirts for their efforts.

'Hawks look to pass Texas road test
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
The Lone Star State hasn't been kind to the Jayhawk baseball team in the past.
No. 5 Baylor beat up Kansas last weekend, sweeping the 'Hawks in a conference series for the second time this season. And in early March, Kansas won only one game against then No. 4 Texas before losing the next two.
That's just this year. Texas teams lead the all-time series 64-109.
The Hawks haven't stacked up well against the Texans for one reason, coach Bobby Randall said.
"Texas is really a baseball state — they breed baseball athletes down there," he said.
The 'Hawks invade the state again at 7
p. m. tonight, when Kansas (22-26 and 8-19 in the Big 12 conference) squares off against UT-Arlington (21-29 and 9-18 in the Southland conference) in Arlington, Texas.
The Mavericks will be the seventh straight Texas game for the 'Hawks. Last year, Kansas beat UT-Arlington twice, 10-3 and 9-4, in the opening three-game campaign.
But the circumstances are different this year.
KU
Kansas is in the midst of a four-game losing streak — the longest this season
and also is in the middle of a eight-game road stint. The 'Hawks haven't been spectacular on the road this year, sporting a 10-12 record.
Randall is hoping his players won't have an emotional letdown from the Bears' sweep last weekend.
Gremminger: is from the Lone Star state
"This will be a good test for out team," he said. "We've been playing hard all year, and we want to finish the last seven games of the season strong."
The Jayhawk batters must have on their game faces to counter Maverick pitcher Whoa Dill (5-8). Dill's 5.49 ERA is the lowest on the UT-Arlington team.
Kansas has two Texans working in its favor — juniors John Nelson and Jesse Gremminger, who both are from the Lone Star State. Both struggled in Waco, Texas, last weekend, but Gremminger is sure that he'll bounce back.

"We just need to relax and play the
Kansas will send junior Pete Smart, 6-9, to the mound tonight and will use sophomore Dan Olson in tomorrow's 1 p.m. game.
Baseball Notes
The 2000 Kansas squad has five more road wins than last year's team. The Jayhawks' eight-game road trek is the most since last year when Kansas opened the season with 10 straight away match-ups.
Pitcher Rusty Philbrick broke the Kansas record for most career starts last weekend, but he also broke the number of innings pitched with 296 in his four-year career. Philbrick also is second on the strikeout list with 231, seven behind the leader.
Royals fall to Oakland, 7-5

Terrence Long drove in four runs, and Omar Olivares won for the first time since April 5 as the Oakland Athletics beat the Kansas City Royals 7-5 last night for their fourth straight win.
KANSAS CITY. Mo.
Oakland trailed 5-4 in the eighth, then loaded the bases with one out against Dan Reichert (1-1) and tied the score on Eric Chavez's infield grounder. Pinchhitter Olmedo Saenz singled in the go-ahead run, and Long followed with another RBI single.
Olivares (2-3), whose other win was against Detroit, allowed five runs and eight hits in seven
innings. Doug Jones pitched a one-hit eighth, and Jason Irinaushaun got three straight outs for his fifth save in five chances.
Kansas City took a 2-0 lead in the first on Mike Sweeney's sacrifice fly and the first of two RBI singles by Carlos Beltran.
After Long's triple in the second, Ramon Hernandez homeered in the third for a 4-2 lead. Beltran and Joe Randa hit RBI singles in the bottom of the third that tied the game.
Kansas City starter Chad Durbin gave up four runs, four hits and four walks in 61-3 innings.
Notes: The Royals are in the midst of their longest home stand of the year (11 games), while the A's are on their longest road trip (12 games).

KC club offers adults athletic, social outlet
By Scott Kirsch
sports@kansan.com
Kanson sportswriter
People ages 21-34 who enjoy sports and want another social outlet need look no farther than the Kansas City Sport & Social Club, the local chapter of the organization located in 20 cities across America.
Josh Rohr, assistant director of the club, graduated from Kansas State in 1998 and moved to Kansas City last summer. He did not know anyone upon his arrival, which is where the Sport and Social Club came in.
Josh's brother Chris, a University of Kansas graduate, got him started in the club. After participating in the sand volleyball
league, Josh was offered a part-time job running sand volleyball, which eventually led to his role as assistant director. He's been hooked on the club ever since.
"It's a good way to meet a ton of people," Josh said, describing a club that includes 365,000 professional adults nationwide, a number that provides considerable networking opportunities.
Sports Editor Commentary
This social aspect was the biggest plus of the club for Amy Love, who became a member in January.
Love, who graduated from Kansas in 1997, learned about the club from fellow members of the Kansas City Ski Club and joined with her college roommate, Pam Comstock.

Semi-pro teams would benefit athletes,NBA high schoolers
The idea of a semi-professional basketball league scares a lot of people.
It's an idea that has been tossed around by the NBA, the CBA and a variety of other basketball leagues, all of which fancy themselves as a possible developmental league for the NBA.
The proposal? A farm league that resembles Major League Baseball's, where high school basketball players can sign $50,000 to $100,000 contracts and then get called up to the NBA. Any player that comes in loses amateur status but gets rich without ever having to go to school — or having to be thrown into the lion's den that is the NBA. The idea is basketball fans.
The idea spooks college basketball fans.
What should we do? Will it work? No, not yet.
What about my team? Will it be the same?
It frightens college coaches, or, at least,
the big-time coaches who recruit the big-
time high school players.
What about my recruits? How am I supposed to mold these youngsters into men? It terrifies the NCAA
The fans? They'll always be able to cheer for their teams. Otherwise, are they really fans?
But all of these reasons have selfish motivations behind them, because most of these people don't give a damn about the players.
Now who will make us all the money we're accustomed to? The TV networks won't love us anymore!
Forget about the NCAA. The suspensions levied against players like Erick Barkley, Kareem Rush and JaRon Rush made no sense. There was no continuity in the suspensions — all were for contact and possibly for taking money with agents — from an institution that was mad at players for trying to make money for their skills.
The coaches are the ones that stand to lose the most. Some, like Roy Williams, do care about their players and want to ensure that they prosper, both on and off the basketball floor. But some coaches no doubt would be concerned about their large paychecks, which are provided by the performance of their players.
Without athletes who are willing to trade a scholarship — less than minimum wage considering the amount of time put in by today's athletes — for playing time, none of the coaches would have a job.
But that's the beauty of the proposed league. Everyone can win.
Average and above-average basketball players, who normally wouldn't receive a scholarship, now can play in college — acting out the dreams of hundreds of high school students. But instead of the people who use college as a pit stop, student-athletes would be playing college basketball and going to classes. Graduation rates most likely would increase, which would reinforce the true meaning of college — to get a degree.
College basketball will survive no matter what. It was great before TV, the madness still will happen every March and there will be players on teams who actually want to be in college. If a player wants to go to the NBA, why waste time in college working in an academic institution as a means to further an athletic career?
Even the blue-chip players who do attend college no doubt would improve their skills and grow as individuals. Grant Hill always has said that his college experience made him the player he is today. As one of the top NBA players, that's a strong statement for any high schooler thinking about jumping to the NBA.
Go get paid to play.
Bottom line, the athletes benefit. True, the atmosphere in a semi-praleague won't be as coddling as college, but a near six-figure salary would ease those problems. Sleazy agents still would be around, but again, that's the trade-off for making the money.
And, one would hope, some high school players who have NBA potential still would go to college. After all, college teams still play in front of thousands of fans. March Madness is still March Madness, and there's something to be said for experiencing college.
Just ask Grant Hill

The clump of planets and sun in Taurus mean money for you. It's coming in, but you might not be able to keep it. Now, you're supposed to be pretty smart. Use those brains to hold onto what you've already accumulated.
You may feel like you should be doing something right now. You don't want to change, however. You're comfortable. Well, if you get out of that com fort zone for a while, you may discover a way to put your mind to rest. Action is required.
Gemini: Today is a 3.
You may have an opportunity to gather with talkative friends. Usually, you'd accept, but today you may feel like hiding out. A prayerful retreat wouldn't be a step backward. It could help you decide which route to take when you race forward again.
Cancer: Today is a 9.
You may notice you're getting over your shyness. There are lots of interesting things to do, and you want to be in the middle of the action. You might even be chosen for a leadership position. Get used to it! People like your fresh ideas.
Leo: Today is a 5.
Imagine a huge mudslide is blocking your career path. If you're clever enough to find a way around this difficulty, you may look back on this phase as one of the pivotal weeks in your life. Nobody said it would always be easy.
Virgo: Today is a 9.
If you want to invest in yourself, look for ways to fund it with other people's money. An opportunity could arise, requiring you to travel. Or, you may need to get more education. Don't just decide you can't afford it. Seek financial backing.
Libra: Today is a 5.
Scorpio: Today is a 9.
Right now you should study ways to make your money grow. Figure out what will work best for you. Ask other people for advice, but don't just rely on their judgment. You're liable to be good at this once you learn how to do it.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
A powerful, yet practical, person is the best type to have in your life, and one could be nearby. You'll know if the two of you would make the perfect pair. If you would, he or she will be banging your door down, ready to get started!
You're up for a busy day. Squeeze in a few moments for yourself and your true love. The rest of the time, you'll hustle just to keep up with demand. The work's plentiful; a routine makes it doable. Stop arguing with success and follow your plan.
Capricorn: Today is a 9.
图示
You may want to stay home and play. If you've worked enough overtime, you might be able to do that. You can always be counted on to go the extra mile for others. Today, however, you may be forgiven if you place your needs first. Ask.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
You are intelligent, but today you could be awe-
some. You've been thinking carefully, as usual,
before making a big decision. This is good. Make
sure what you do is best for your family. And, if you
can do it from home, so much the better.
2
Pisces: Today is a 9.
Let others know what you've been doing and what you want to do next. If you don't quite know how to do the next job up, don't worry. You'll learn quickly. If you're motivated, dedicated and focused on your goals, you can't lose.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL Ranked guard decides to play with Kansas
Kansas announced yesterday that K.C. Hilgenkamp, a 6-foot guard from Hutchinson Community College, signed a letter of intent for next season.
Hilgenkamp, whose chose Kansas instead of North Carolina, Penn State and Auburn, averaged 14.5 points, 7.5 assists and four rebounds at Hutchinson. The Arlington, Neb., native is a two-time All-Jayhawk Conference first-team selection and ranks as the third best point guard in All-Star Girls Report.
Hilgenkamp is Kansas' fourth recruit thus far. It also has signed guard Shanell Law, forward Dalchon Brown and guard Fernanda Bosi.

United States claims world hockey game
ST, PETERSBURG, Russia — Goalie Bob Esch turned in the best performance of his career as the United States upset Russia 3-0 last night at the World Hockey Championships in a game that ended with fans pelting the ice. It was the second biggest shutout loss for a Soviet or Russian team in

"We knew we had to win, and that was pressure on our minds," Yashin said. "The U.S. team used that very
well. Their win was well-deserved." Before a sellout crowd of 12,350 in the new ice Palace, Jason Blake, Phil Housley and Dave Legwand scored for the Americans, who had only three practices before the championships.
Only 13 NHL players accepted invitations to play for the U.S. team. The rest are minor leaguers, collegians and European-based players.
ATLANTA — Three previous assault charges against NFL star Ray Lewis cannot be used against him in his murder trial, but evidence taken from his home can, a judge ruled yesterday.
Evidence, not charges will affect linebacker
NFL
But defense lawyers Ed Garland and Don Samuel said the assault charges, which Lewis denies, were not relevant. The judge agreed, ruling that they weren't similar enough to the charges Lewis now faces.
The assault charges against the Baltimore Ravens' linebacker, all of which were dropped, stem from cases in 1994 and 1995 in Miami, and in December 1999 in Baltimore. In all three, Lewis was accused of hitting a woman. Prosecutors argued that the cases should be admitted because they demonstrate Lewis' "intent, bent of mind and course of behavior" when faced with a dispute.
"it's the same argument of, 'If he did it before, he'll do it again,'"
Judge Alice Bonner said.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Lewis and co-defendants Joseph Sweeting and Reginald Oakley are accused of stabbing two men to death after a Super Bowl party in Atlanta on Jan. 30.
Lewis maintains he was a peace maker during the street fight in which Jacinth Baker, 21, and Richard Lollar, 24, were killed. Lewis is free on $1 million bond.
Millions may miss Derby because of TV disputes
HORSE RACING
NEW YORK — The stretch run of ABC's 26 years of Triple Crown coverage could be offlimits for millions of viewers.
If the sides don't settle their differences by Saturday, 3.5 million cable viewers in seven markets, including New York City and Los Angeles, won't be able to see the Kentucky Derby unless they rig their TVs to get an ABC station the old-fashioned way — through an antenna.
A dispute between the Walt Disney Co. and Time Warner Inc. over transmission rights left seven Disney-owned ABC stations off local cable systems as of yesterday.
"It's something we have no control over," said Karl Schmitt, senior VP of Churchill Downs Inc., which owns the track and the Derby itself. "We're hopeful it all will be resolved before Saturday at 4:30, when the show goes on the air."
ABC's long association with thoroughbred racing's Triple Crown ends after this year's series, when its current contract expires. Last October, NBC outbid ABC and signed a five-year deal, worth a reported $51.5 million, to televise the Kentucky Derby, Preamness and Belmont Stakes.
Missing superstars return to practices
NBA
PHOENIX — Tim Duncan and Jason Kidd, the missing superstars in the San Antonio-Phoenix first-round series, are back practicing with their teams.
The chance that either would play tonight in Game 4, however, was somewhere between uncertain and unlikely.
Trailing 2-1 in the best-of-five series, the defending NBA champion Spurs must win on the Suns' homecourt or they're out of the
playoffs.

Duncan, due to become one of the most coveted

He was an important offensive weapon for a team decimated by injuries throughout the season. Rogers was the

Rogers was the overwhelming choice for the award, receiving 104 of a possible 121 votes from a panel of sports writers and sportscasters.

Kansas City club is a haven for those seeking excercise, fun
Continued from page 1B
The only sport Love has participated in thus far is bowling, although she said she wanted to give volleyball a try.
However, she relishes the social aspects.
"Socializing is the fun part," Love said. "My bowling score really reflected that."
Some social events offered by the club, in addition to happy hours and traveling trips, are quarterly outings and involvement with local charities. For example, the club took a bus of members to the Kansas City Royals opener and has helped out such charities as KC Cares and Habitat for Humanity.
The lower price also offers an incentive. Anybody who wants to join can do so for $30 — $10 less
In addition to hanging out with league members away from club events, Love also has enjoyed the happy hours that the club sponsors at area Kansas City bars. The next happy hour is May 19, at Harlings at 3941A Main Street, Kansas City, Mo. Cost is $8 for members, and $10 for non-members.
And although the club provides plenty of variety, its most simple goal is to bring back the joy of pick-up games and intramurals and allow young people to get together. Chris said the club was much
Chris said the club was much more enjoyable than intramurals.
than the usual price — any time during the week of May 15.
Members receive a $10 discount in all leagues, as well as deals at happy hour functions.
"This is more consistent since people were graduating or becoming to busy for intramurals," he said. "Here you get to meet people over and over again and develop friends and rivalries."
And many of those people he has met through the club have been Kansas graduates or supporters, although he said he did not know them while in Lawrence.
Chris Finkulet, senior, already has become involved with the club. Finkulet met with a club representative at the Career Fair in January. She now helps the club with its spring softball league that plays on Sundays.
"There are more professional-type people involved here," she said. "I would really like to get a full-time job with them. You don't
really have to be a sports expert; it's a very sociable, personable kind of job."
And jobs still are available for anyone interested, Josh said. The club is looking for interns, while part-time positions are available in all cities the club is located in. Students with sports marketing degrees have an advantage, but it is not a necessity.
Finkulet, a sociology major, thought it was her personality that got her the job.

"They really tried to get to know me first," she said. "The goal here is to get to know people and to have fun."
And for a club that caters to young professionals,fun is an integral part.
"Our national average is 27-year-olds, but in Kansas City it is around 25," Josh said. "And we're getting a lot younger."

NHL Playoffs
Red Wings topple Avs in playoffs
Russian players key in victory
The Associated Press
DETROIT — The Detroit Red Wings turned to their Russian connection for new life in their second-round playoff series with the Colorado Avalanche.
The Red Wings got goals from Igor Larion and Sergei Fedorov last night in a 3-1 victory against the Avs, who eliminated Detroit in the Western Conference semifinals last season.
Brendan Shanahan also scored for the Red Wings, who lost the first two games of the series in Denver.
the best-of-seven series continues with Game 4 tomorrow night at Joe Louis Arena. Game 5 will be Friday night in Denver.
Peter Forsberg scored for Colorado, which had won 14 of its previous 15 games.
The first three goals came on power plays, and Shanah scored into an empty net with 40 seconds remaining.
The Red Wings, who had looked a tad old and a step slow during the first two games against the high-flying Avs, looked more like a team bent on reclaiming the Stanley Cup championship during the first period. Detroit outshot the Avs 36-23.
The Avs had outshot their opponents in every playoff game this season.
but the Red Wings — flashing the speed and precision that made them the top-scoring team in the NHL during the regular season — had a 14-6 edge in shots during the first 20 minutes.
And they also had the lead for the first time in this series.
pa
the le
ng
The Red Wings, scoreless in their first nine power plays of the series, took a 1-4 lead on Larianov's first goal at 9:38 while Colorado forward
Milan Hejduk was off for holding Tomas Holmstrom's stick. The goal was set up by Nicklas Lidstrom who patiently glided through left circle with the puck before passing it to Martin Lapointe near the left post.
Lapointe tipped it to Larionov who had an open shot on the right side before Colorado
was off for holding. Forsberg, taking a pass from Ray Bourque, sent a slap shot over Detroit goalie Chris Osgood's left shoulder.
goaltender Patrick Roy could recover.
Forsberg, who had scored the winning goal in three consecutive playoff games, tied it 1-1 with his fourth goal at 9:38 of the second while Larovion
Bourque, however, bruised his left foot sometime during the period and didn't come out for the third period.
Fedorov's fourth goal, 30 seconds after Shion Podewat was sent off for tripping, gave Detroit a 2-1 lead. Roy, partially blocked by Holmstrom and Steve Yzerman, didn't appear to get a good look at the shot from the top of the left circle.
The Avs, who have scored 11 of their 23 goals on power plays, had the man advantage when Shanahan was sent off for holding Stephane Yelle's stick with 9:08 left in the third period, but they got only two harmless shots on Osgood.
The game was held up for about five minutes at 7:48 of the third period after Larionov was driven into the boards by Avs forward Serge
Devils beat Maple Leafs, take 2-1 series lead
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — If the Toronto Maple Leafs have hopes of ending their 33-year Stanley Cup drought, they better find a way to start beating Martin Brodeur and the New Jersey Devils soon.
Brodeur withstood Toronto's best period of the series and went on to stop 22 shots in leading the Devils to a 5-1 victory against the Maple Leafs last night.
Jason Arnott, Scott Gomez, Patrik Elias, Petri Sykora and Alexander Mogilny scored as the Devils took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal series. Elias also had two assists as New Jersey dominated for the third straight game.
New Jersey easily could have had a 3-1 lead if Curtis Joseph hadn't stolen the opening game with a 32-save performance in a 2-1 Toronto victory.
The Maple Leafs, who generated only a couple of scoring chances in the opening two games at home, had seven outstanding chances in the opening 20 minutes with Brodeur stopping oddman rushes by Wendel Clark, Igor Korenolev and Dmitri Khristich and some good close-in chances by Sergei Berezin and Adam Mair.
Brodeur came within 4:17 of recording a second straight shutout before Kevyn Adams scored a short-handed goal.
Joseph was just as good at the other end for a period, stopping 14 shots. However, he never had a chance once New Jersey got rolling in the
second period.
Mair picked up a four-minute high sticking penalty for cutting Devils defense man Ken Daneyko, and it only took the Devils 37 seconds to cash in. Sykora made a nice play getting the puck into the offensive zone, and Arnott eventually tipped a Bobby Holik shot past Joseph from right in front of the crease at 9:42.
Gomez, who was in danger of being benched for Game 2 despite his rookie of the year credentials, stretched the lead to 2-0 at 15.03. He beat Adams on a face-off above the top of the circle, took a skate pass from Claude Lemieux and beat Josep low to the glove side.
Sykora put away the game at 4:27 of the final period with a tap-in goal set up by Arnott and Elias.

Athlete accuses football players of battery
By Mindle Miller
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence police are investigating a University of Kansas women's soccer player's allegations that two Jayhawk football players sexually battered her in a parking lot in February.
The 22-year-old victim said she waited more than two months to report the battery to police because her coach, Mark Francis, advised her to go to the KU Athletics Department first. But she said football coach Terry Allen only made the players run stairs, so she decided to go to the police.
Allen, Francis and Bob Frederick, athletics director, did not return phone calls yesterday. Doug Vance, assistant athletics director, said the department had no comment yet.
The victim said that she went out with some friends to the Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St., at about 11 p.m. Feb. 26. According to a statement released by the victim, she consumed three drinks between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m., but was not drunk.
One of the suspects walked up behind her twice, grabbed her waist and lifted her into the air. When she protested, the suspect laughed in her face and walked away.
When the bar closed at about 2 a.m., the victim walked to the crowded parking lot with two friends, who left her alone while they went to get a jacket from a car. As she was waiting, the two suspects approached her from behind.
The suspect who had bothered the victim inside the club again grabbed her around the waist and lifted her into the air. Despite her pleas for him to put her down, the suspect threw her on top of a nearby vehicle. The victim said she was acquainted with the suspects, who are 18 and 19, but did not know them well.
They held her down while they touched her between her legs and spanked her, according to her report. They were laughing and saying, "You like that, huh? I hear you like this kind of stuff."
The victim said that she was kicking and screaming but that she did not stand a
chance against the football players, who were both about 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighed at least 230 pounds. The victim said she fought her way free and tried to strike the suspects, who laughed at her attempts.
She ran to where her friends were standing and told them that she needed to leave. One of the suspects approached her again and asked if she wanted to get back on the car. She started to cry and left with her friends.
She said she struggled with what happened for several days, losing sleep and feeling sick. She told her academic tutor about the battery, and he suggested she tell her coach.
She met with Francis on Feb. 29, and he encouraged her not to go to the police before talking to Allen. But he also said that a serious crime had been committed and that talking to police might be appropriate.
The victim and her coach met with Allen on March 2. According to her report, Allen gave her two options:
First, he told her that she could go to police, but stressed that pressing charges would be an unpleasant experience and discourage her from doing so. He added that if she did tell police, he would not punish the players as hard because the criminal justice system would do it instead.
■ Or, Allen said, he would punish the players in an "appropriate way" if she promised she would not press charges. He would not explain to her what he meant by an "appropriate way."
On April 14, the victim's academic adviser told her the two suspects had sexually battered another KU student. The victim said the players should be punished so they could not hurt anyone else.
According to her report, the victim waited almost two months for Allen to punish the players. On April 18, Bob Kincaid, assistant director of student-athlete life, told her the players' punishment had been to run stairs at Memorial Stadium. When she asked Kincaid if he thought that punishment justified what the players had done to her, he asked, "What kind of punishment would you want them to have? What would make you feel better?"
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said police had contacted one suspect, who admitted putting the victim on the car but not to touching her. Police have not contacted the second suspect.
The victim said the athletics department's response made her feel worthless. She said she thought punishments were administered inconsistently for football players.
"Dion Rayford messed up a drive-thru window at Taco Bell but did not physically harm anybody," she said in her report. "He got suspended from the team right away and did not get to play his senior game."
She said the suspects had physically and psychologically assaulted her but still were allowed to play in the spring game and practice with the team.
"The worst part is that I know both (players) are laughing about what happened, and they know nothing is going to happen to them," she said in her report. "It hurts me that these guys have not been punished at all for what they have done to me and possibly other women."
City moves closer to new student issues advisory board

Kansas staff writer
The City Commission last night took the first step toward creating a board that would advise the commission about student concerns.
The second and last hurdle for the Lawrence Advisory Board on University Student Issues will come next week when the commission will vote on the ordinance one more time. The commission must pass an ordinance twice for it to become law. Last night's vote was unanimous.
Michael Henry, former community affairs director for Student Senate and Overland Park senior, has spent this semester advocating the idea.
City Commission
Henry said one issue the advisory board would soon
"We're very excited by this," he said. "This was some of the most enjoyable work I had."
deal with would be coordination of the public transportation system.
He also said he was glad the new ordinance included representatives from Haskell Indian Nations University. Both the University of Kansas and Haskell would have three representatives on the nine-member board.
Students from both universities could address rental property issues, Henry said.
Commissioners thanked the students for their efforts.
Andrew Bailey, Student Senate's new community affairs director and Lenexa freshman, said he was excited to be taking one of the positions.
"We appreciate Student Senate taking the initiative," commissioner Mike Rundle said.
The board will be composed of the Lawrence mayor, vice mayor and city manager or his or her designer; the KU student body president, student body vice president and community affairs director for Student Senate; and the Haskell student body president, student body vice president and another Haskell student senator.
"I've got some big shoes to fill," he said. "I think there's a lot of exciting issues coming up for students."
Rich Barr, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical Department fire marshal, said the department held an annual competition to educate students about fire safety.
In other action, the city commission. Recognized the winner of this year's residence hall fire safety program. Oliver Hall.
In other action, the city commission:
"It's a fire survival program," he said.
The competition was to see which residence hall had the highest percentage of its students attend the program.
Barr said Oliver had 330 students attend - about 57 percent of its 580 students.

Sharp makeover A former barbed-wire factory is polished into a downtown gem
Writer @ kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The old barbed-wire factory on Lawrence's river front is ready to open.
THE BAR
And this time, developer Mike Elwell, who missed his original lease's completion date by seven years and missed a prominent opening last September, wants to open the building to the public this month — and he really means it.
According to his lease with the city, Elwell must get his occupancy permit before June or start to pay $100 a day.
Elwell's last hurdle is obtaining a power connection from a transformer behind city hall.
So he will be done in May — or maybe June.
so he will be done in May—or may be done.
"Unless something else happens," Elwell, 57, said.
"At the rate we're going, it seems like something always does."
Elwell is turning the downtown Barbwire building, the last of Lawrence's old industrial buildings on the river, into a restaurant, bar, coffeehouse and art gallery — a project that has taken him more than a decade.
It started in 1989 when Elwell was looking for a place to display his collection of metal sculptures.
The city didn't know what to do with the rundown building. Developers of the Riverfront Plaza mall, whose time has come and gone as the years have rolled by, just wanted the crumbling building to go away.
So after two years of negotiations with New Jersey-based Chelsea GCA Realty, who owned the mall, and the city, who owns the land, Elwell became the building's long-term lease.
Besides a dance floor and coffeehouse, Abe and Jakes Landing, 8 E. Sixth St., will also have a full bar. The business's developer, Mike Elwell, hopes to open the building, located between City Hall and the Riverfront Plaza mall, by June. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN
He spent three years repairing the crumbling structure and since 1994 has worked to replace bird nests and dirt with an indoor sculpture gallery and a mezanine level built to mimic an English village theme.
Elwell explains the delays by listing the obstacles he has faced—a list that includes two floods, 18,000 pounds of elevator counterweights and pigeons.
Why has Elwell stuck with his vision of a unique place in downtown Lawrence where people could enjoy art, music and drinks and watch the river go by? "You get to a point of no return," Elwell said. "You've come this far, and there's some light at the end of the tunnel."
But Elwell has invested as much emotion as he has money.
He said his point of no return came last year, when the city wanted to renegotiate his lease to protect the city's property and Elwell's investment.
Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community
A building with history
Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., said the Barbwire building began in the 1890s as The Consolidated Barb Wire Co. drawing mill and cranked out wire from steel for seven years.
Since then, it has been used by a variety of industries. It most recently operated as a cardboard factory for the Lawrence Paper Co., which moved in the 1960s. Elwell said the barbed-will mill once was the biggest employer in Kansas, with about 300 workers.
From law to art
Elwell was a Douglas County attorney in the early 70s. His title changed to district attorney during his tenure.
Elwell then became a district judge, retiring in 1985. He said he quit because he got tired of dealing with all "the bad people."
"I didn't get to meet an awful lot of nice people coming through the court." Elwell said.
From time to time, he strayed from a proper judicial demeanor.
Once, during a particularly messy divorce hearing in which the couple was squabbling about every possession they had, Elwell flipped a coin to decide the issue.
Another time, on a boring Friday, Elwell received the case of a man who had been picked up for hitchhiking on the Turnpike but who Elwell said had obviously intended to pick marijuana.
"I ordered him to be hanged by the neck until dead," he said.
It wasn't until then that Elwell realized the man hao a shutter.
"He said, 'B-B-But you honor, they don't h-hang people for hitchhiking in N-N-New York,' he said. "I said, 'We don't either, but from now on, don't hitchhike on the Turnpike.'"
Since he retired from the bench, Elwell has more free time on his hands and sometimes fishes the Kaw alongside men he had sent to prison.
Elwell said the idea to renovate the Barbwire building came in 1989, when he was looking for a place to display his metal sculptures — which he has been

Library imposes fines as methods to get its books back
It's the end of the semester: time for papers, projects, final exams — and paying library fines.
Unpaid fines are one of the loose ends students need to tie up at the end of a semester. General Accounting puts a hold on the records of students with unpaid fines, said Justin Scholtes, student assistant in the Registrar's Office and Overland Park sophomore. Those students can't enroll or get copies of their transcripts until the fines are paid.
"If you owe money to the school, you're not going to be able to take advantage of the
school's services." Scholtes said.
The library system sends out its own overdue and fine notices, but if fines remain unpaid, they are sent to the comptroller's office, said Julia Rholes, assistant dean of libraries. She said that fines hadn't been sent to the comptroller since August because of computer system changes but that now they would be.
Diane Goddard, comptroller, said her office billed students for up to four months. The office won't send students' unpaid fines to a collection agency while they are enrolled. She said the vast majority of students paid their fines while they were students.
"We don't send many of these out for collection," she said.
Samuelson said the record fine included lost book charges.
Big fines are rare. But people can get them selves into trouble by running up fines, said Sarah Couch, head of Watson Access Services
The biggest fine Samuelson can remember was about $2,000, but most students' fines don't come anywhere near that.
Damaged books also generate fines. Gary Samuelson, office specialist in the fines office in Watson Library, said dogs and water were the most common culprits.
Rholes last lost book charges were what produced the big fines. Charges for the cost of replacing lost books can generate three- and
There are fewer excuses for running up big fines now. Since August, most books can be renewed online, Rholes said. Books checked out for six-week or four-month terms can be renewed twice online.
four-figure fines.
"But we don't have lots of these," Rholes said. Students can appeal fines they think are unfair, Rholes said. And sometimes the librarians give people breaks for special circumstances such as illness. But it's not routine, she said.
Rholes said she had no exact figures, but that online renewals had reduced the library's fine revenues. But it's worth it to make library use more convenient, she said.

SenEx names chairman for next year's term
Incoming members of the Senate Executive Committee named Tom Beisecker, professor of communications studies, chairman of next year's committee yesterday.
Beisecker will replace Jim Carothers. Last week, University Council also named Beisecker Council president-elect, a position also held this year by Carothers. Carothers will replace Mary Hawkins next year as president of University Council.
J. D. Jenkins, incoming vice chair of SenEx, said that the new members of SenEx chose Beisecker based on his experience.
"He's served as SenEx chair before back in '91 and '92," Jenkins said. "We felt it was important to pick someone who had previous experience in SenEx, and Tom had an interest in serving as chair again, so we chose him."
As chair, Beisecker will preside over the committee that sets the agenda for University Council. Other incoming faculty members of SenEx are Russ Ostermann, Barbara Romzek, Chuck Krider, Lisa Wolf-Wendel and Bill Tsutsui. Incoming student members are Erin Simpson, Duane Bruce, J.D. Jenkins and Ben Walker, who as student body president will serve as an ex-officio member of SenEx.

Officials investigate Sunday morning fires
Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical personnel are investigating two Sunday morning fires as possible arsons,
An apartment building in the 1700 block of Kentucky Street caught fire about 2:45 a.m. Sunday.
Andrew Graves, Sterling junior, lives across the street from the building. He said the commotion woke him about 3 a.m.
"I looked out my window, and there were flames billowing above the tree tops," he said.
The fire, which firefighters brought under control in 40 minutes, destroyed the top two floors of the three-story building. Nine people were displaced from the building, which is owned by First Management
Fire investigators estimated the damage at $250,000.
A second fire broke out between 5:10 and 6 a.m. in the 700 block of Louisiana Street. The fire started in a detached garage at Stan and Jan
Shumway's residence. Stan Shumway is an associate dean emeritus of fine arts.
According to police reports, the fire then spread next door to a house and its detached garage. Investigators estimated the damage at $57,000.
Firefighters had the blaze under control within 15 minutes.
No injuries were reported in either fire.
Rich Barr, fire marshal, said yesterday that investigators had not determined the cause of the fires or whether they were related.
"We have to eliminate all possible causes," he said. "We have not eliminated arson, but there are not clear indicators that it was arson."

Menninger advocates violence prevention
TOPEKA — Kansas needs to focus on programs designed to prevent violence and other problems among juveniles rather than locking them up, W. Walter Menninger said yesterday.
"Instead of building more and more facilities to warehouse kids, we have to band together for effective programs of prevention," said Menninger, president and chief executive officer of The Menninger Clinic in Topeka.
Meninger, a nationally known children's advocate, bemoaned the Legislature's recent decision to spend about $60 million to build juvenile lockups and only $5 million for prevention programs.
At the first of 10 schools to implement the Menninger Peaceful Schools Project, suspensions have decreased dramatically, and students have a better learning environment, Menninger said.

Teens commit suicide by driving into tree
EAST HADDAM, Conn. — There were no skid marks in front of the tree.
The two teen-age boys who drove a Ford Bronco straight at the giant spruce and died in a fiery crash early Monday had made clear their terrible intentions in cell phone goodbyes a few minutes earlier.
Then — at the same tree where his 15-year-old brother died in a car crash six months earlier — 13-year-old Michael Dombrowski and his 15-year-old friend Jeffrey Barton killed themselves in this town about 20 miles from Hartford.
the elder brother, Jeff, whom friends described as troubled, joined Michael out of friendship.
Friends said a grief-striken Michael had planned his death as a tribute to
The tree was cut down Monday afternoon for fear it would become a magnet for more suicides.
State executes woman for murdering her kids
VARNER, Ark. — A former nurse who asked for the death penalty for drugging and suffocating her two children was executed by injection yesterday in Arkansas 'first execution of a woman in more than 150 years
Christina Marie Riggs, 28, was the fifth woman executed in the United States since the Supreme Court lifted a ban on capital punishment in 1976.
— the same heart-stopping drug used in executions — to kill her children, 5-year-old Justin and 2-year-old Shelby Alexis, in 1997.
She had withdrawn all appeals and chose not to seek clemency from Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Riggs told authorities that she intended to use potassium chloride
She gave the children an antidepressant in hopes it would make them drowsy, then injected Justin with the potassium chloride.
When Justin began crying, Riggs told police, she injected him with morphine left over from a hospital patient and smothered both children.

Rebels make threats to behead hostages
TALIPAO, Philippines — Rebels holed up in the hills and surrounded by troops threatened yesterday to behead two foreign hostages if the military did not back off.
But a government spokesperson said the encirclement of the area would continue.
The rebel threat came as new clashes between government forces and two Muslim rebel groups in the southern Philippines worsened prospects for the release of two groups of hostages totaling 48 people.
On Jolo Island — where extremist Abu Sayyaf rebels are holding 21 hostages, including 10 foreign tourists, at a bamboo hut in the hills
— about 100 rebels with long rifles attempted to escape through the military cordon yesterday. Troops fired at the rebels, and at least one soldier was killed and six were wounded.
The fighting continued yesterday evening, police said. There was no immediate word of casualties among the rebels.
The hostages were kidnapped April 23 from a Malaysian diving resort.

Two Libyans charged with killing of 270
Pan Am bombing trial begins
The Associated Press
CAMP ZEIST, Netherlands — Nearly 12 years have passed since their family members were killed, blown from the sky over Lockerbie, Scotland. Now, as they arrive for the trial in the 1981 Pan Am bombing, relatives of some of the 270 victims see the proceeding as their last chance for justice.
Many said they hoped prosecutors in the trial of two Libyans finally would uncover the full story behind the terrorist plot that killed their loved ones.
The two Libyan defendants go on trial today at a Scottish court
in the Netherlands, charged with murder and many other crimes in the attack that killed 259 passengers and 11 people on the ground.
About a dozen American relatives visited Camp Zeist, an old U.S. Air Force base deemed Scottish territory, for the trial. Other relatives will watch the trial on closed-circuit television in Washington, New York, London and Dumfries, Scotland. Libyan and U.S. government representatives also will attend, officials said.
Last year, Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi and Lamen Khalifa Flhimah were turned in by Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.
After interviewing 15,000 witnesses and collecting 180,000 pieces of evidence, prosecutors are convinced they have the bombers. But defense lawyers have alleged that other terrorist
organizations operating in Europe were responsible for the attack.
Early evidence had supported the theory that Iran, seeking revenge for the accidental downing of an Iranian passenger jet, contracted the bombing out to a radical Palestinian group. Further doubts have been raised by reports of prosecution witnesses changing their testimony and the chief prosecutor's resignation in February.
The court will hold sessions almost daily through July 28 before adjourning Aug. 22. Witnesses scheduled for the early phases include British aviation experts and the investigators who went through the debris of the exploded jeliner after the crash.
The defendants have been kept behind a 15-foot concrete wall topped with electrified wire inside the camp, 40 miles east of Amsterdam. The site was chosen as neutral territory in a compromise with Gadhafi.
ON THE RECORD
A KU student's sunglasses, 70 compact discs and eight text books were stolen between 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Thursday from the 300 block of West 13th Street, Lawrence police said. The items were valued at $2,039.
A KU student's 1999 Isuzu Amigo was damaged between 1 and 3 a.m. Saturday when a package of Winterfresh gum was stolen from the vehicle in the 2200 block of Hartford Drive, Lawrence police said. The damage was estimated at $800, and the gum was valued at $1.

Templin Revolution tries to lure writer to KU
By Erinn R. Barcomb writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Arianna Huffington's new book is right up Templin Revolution's alley.
The student revolutionary organization is trying to bring Huffington, a political writer, to campus to discuss her book, How to Overthrow the Government.
"How to Overthrow the Government talks about grassroots political work, which is very Templin Revolution work," said Brian Bartelt, a member of Templin Revolution and West Des Moines, Iowa, junior. "We're staying away from the Gore-bashing."
According to Huffington's Web site, www.ariannaonline.com, the book is about how Americans can get their government back from special interest groups.
Bartelt said Huffington's book tied in closely with Templin Revolution, whose goals include supporting freedom of expression and other rights. The Templin Revolution Web site drew controversy several years ago because it depicted Templin Hall exploding.
Although the group wanted Huffington to come May 8, she will likely come in the fall because of scheduling trouble and a lack of money. Bartelt said.
The group still is trying to get money from other sources, like the KU College Republicans, to cover Huffington's $4,000 fee.
"She really wants to come, but we haven't found enough money yet," said J.D. Jenkins, Templin Revolution member and Shawnee junior.
Huffington is a graduate of Cambridge University and has written eight books. She has appeared regularly on the ABC late-night talk show Politically Incorrect.
Free anxiety screenings available today

By Warisa Chulindra writer@kansan.com
Anxiety is a common part of college for University of Kansas students. But when it begins to interfere with everyday life, that could be a sign of an anxiety disorder.
For National Anxiety Disorders Screening Day, Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center will offer free anxiety disorder screenings from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. today in its lobby at 200 Maine Street.
Also, Sheldon Whitten-Vile medical director of Bert Nash. will talk about anxiety disorders at noon today at Borders, 700 New Hamshire.
More than 19 million Americans suffer from anxiety disorders, said Diane Whitten, advanced registered nurse practitioner at Bert Nash. It is particularly prevalent among college students, she said.
"People in college have some pretty normal stress in terms of taking tests and studying." Whitten said. "It's when it becomes extreme and interferes with their life is when they need to seek treatment."
Screening participants will view a video and receive information about different anxiety disorders and mental illnesses. After completing a questionnaire, they will review it with a staff member and receive a referral if necessary.
Linda Keeler, psychiatrist for KU Counseling and Psychological Services, said many college students who suffered from anxiety disorders experienced onsets as children but did not seek treatment until college.
Keeler said students sometimes drank alcohol to deal with anxiety. She said drinking was detrimental and evaluating the situation and confronting the cause was a better place to start.
| Anxiety Disorders | Description | Symptoms |
| Panic Disorder | People feel the same emotional and physical sensations they would feel if their lives were in jeopardy. | Feels like having a heart attack, dying or going crazy. Lasts a few minutes. |

Treatment for anxiety disorders vary for each individual. Anxiety disorders often are treated with both medication and counseling. Medication is especially used to treat extreme cases because it begins to take effect quickly.
As a part of its 50th anniversary celebration, Bert Nash will offer all year free screenings for mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders and alcoholism. To make an appointment, call Bert Nash at
843-9192.
KU students also may discuss concerns about anxiety with CAPS staff. The initial assessment is free and additional sessions are $9. To make an appointment, call 864-2277.
Asthma day raises awareness

When he runs or the weather changes, Jeremy Nesbitt experiences shortness of breath.
"It feels like I'm suffocating." he said.
Nesbitt, who's a Manhattan freshman, has had asthma since he was a child, and is accustomed to carrying his inhaler around when he knows he may need it.
Today is World Asthma Day, designed to raise awareness of the illness, in which air passages become inflamed and airways have a difficult time transferring air from the nose and mouth to the lungs.
It is the most common and costly illness in the United States, according to the Allergy and Asthma Network/Mothers of
Rock said daily use of an inhaler might be an indication that additional medication was needed.
Asthmatics Inc. It is not always diagnosed, said Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, and it is important that it be treated. He said a persistent cough and coughing at night or while exercising might be signs of asthma.
He said taking care of asthma symptoms was important to a person's long-term health. He said those who did not control their asthma not only risked their present health but their future health.
Different factors including stress, anxiety, allergies and exercise trigger asthma. People who smoke or grew up in smoke-filled environments are more likely to have asthma, Rock said. Asthma also tends to be hereditary.

City bike lanes bring hope for safety
Lawrence cyclists soon will be able to ride a little easier, because the Lawrence City Commission has approved bike lanes on Naismith Drive and 15th and 19th streets. In light of recent accidents involving cyclists and cars, this move is good and long overdue.
Because Lawrence is a college town with a large population of students who ride bikes to class, it is a wonder that more bike lanes weren't created earlier. Now, cyclists can ride in their own lanes without the fear of being hit and without the constant flow of cars buzzing around them. It also will make it safer for car drivers because there will be a distinct area in which drivers cannot go. They
City Commission has approved bike lanes, street widening to protect Lawrence cyclists
will be able to feel like they are sharing the road, instead of viewing cyclists as nuisances.
To go along with the bike lanes, the commission is setting a great precedent of making Lawrence a more cyclist-friendly city. The commissioners also are planning proposals for bike routes and paths, as well as for the widening of new streets to 36 feet instead of 31 feet to accommodate future bike lanes. This latest move by the commission is encouraging and was made with students' safety in mind.
Not only does the approval of bike lanes provide immediate relief, but it also provides hope and optimism about integrating more bike lanes into the streets of Lawrence in the future. It is hoped that this trend will continue and that the commission will put a bike lane on Ninth Street, which also is a thoroughfare for cyclists.
It is good to know that Lawrence is trying to make students' lives a little easier, and that the commissioners care. It is hoped that they will approve the bike lane on Ninth Street as well.

Real roommate hate? Find out in three steps
I ate my roommate's turtle cheesecake on Friday. And I had more again for breakfast on Saturday.
I had to scarf it down; it was on my side of the freezer. Anything that lands on the left side of Carrie's ice tray is mine; anything to the left is
Tracey's. So when Tracey's dessert was placed on top of my broccoli-and-ch cheese rice, I had no choice.

This is my living situation. I devour her food and she jumps in the shower before I do just to make my shower water cold. When she talks on the phone for four hours per day, I call time and temperature the next day to ensure phone usage.

My roommate situation has turned for the worse and there's no turning back.
signs that your roommate hates you, just as much as you hate him or her.
1. You are restricted in the amount of food you buy at Dillons. Not because you're enrolled in Jenny Craig, but because there's no room in the fridge.
Between my good roommate, Carrie, and myself,
our edibles occupy one out of the three shelves.
Tracey's four loaves of wheat bread (all half full)
sit on the top shelf, while her three orange juice
containers, a gallon of milk and syrup fill the bottom
shelf.
Who keeps Aunt Jemima in the refrigerator? Certainly my half-gallon of milk should get precedence.
So being a lover and not a fighter, both Carrie and I have resorted to buying food that can be stored in the cabinets, our intake of cereal and chips is a normal person's carbohydrate count for an entire month. If we buy extra yogurt or eggs, they will go bad because Tracey's Tupperware of salad holds more importance in the hierarchy of food. She helps us.
2. You spend so much time at Burger King's pay phone that its funky smell doesn't bother you anymore.
For Christmas, I asked for calling cards so that I could spend more time at fast food restaurants — not to pick up an employee, but because I simply can't ever use the phone at my apartment.
The long-distance phone bill is ridiculous: $200 per month, and it's all Tracey's. She calls her family in Dallas and her friends in Boston. But I've figured out that her four-hour calls aren't signs of affection, but parts of a plot to frustrate me.
If someone does call while she's on the phone, I find out about it a week later. I had a hot date with Ben Affleck, but because I called him back a week late, he started dating Gwenyth. She really hates me.
3. And the most obvious: You paid the electric bill on time, but every time you jump into the shower, the water is frigid.
When I get home at 10 p.m., Tracey is on the phone. But the moment I decide to bathe, she has the sudden urge to too. Coincidence? Nope, she hates me.
She also does laundry when I'm in the shower to turn the water from hot to cold. Or she "washes her hair," but later emerges with the same dry ponytail with which she entered the bathroom.
It was funny the first time, but now, I can take a shower faster than a speeding bullet.
These signs are universal. Everyone has roommate troubles, but with these steps, you can identify the problem and start annoying her even more. I have — Tracey buys the best cheesecake.

Kansan opinion editor biased by ties to coalition
In his April 19 column, Seth Hoffman wrote, "If they meant that the Kansan was biased against them, they [United Students] were wrong, because, simply put, we're not." That claim of nonbias as co-editor of The University Daily Kansan opinion page is entirely false. It is almost impossible for someone who is very involved in a specific political organization to distance him or
specific political organization herself from bias when writing about student politics.
ng about student politics.
Specifically, Hoffman's involvement with Delta Force for three years before becoming the opinion page co-editor at the Kansan definitely has colored his columns and, I believe, the opinions of the entire editorial staff. During the recent Student Senate campaign, there were no articles praising United Students student body presidential and vice presidential candidates Ben Walker and Marlon Marshall.

Ohlsen

I
marshall and Walker won the election by more than 400 votes. One would think that with that margin of victory, at least one columnist would have favored Walker and Marshall enough to write a positive opinion. Therefore, I believe that either Hoffman dictated what opinions would be written by the editorial staff, or most writers simply were hired according to their views instead of their writing abilities. Either, of course, would be an indication of severe conflicts of interest.
Neither Hoffman nor anyone else at the Kansan made any effort to contact me, a person referred to in his column, for comment before or after the column ran. Granted, as a columnist, he has the right to criticize the actions of individuals; however, I do not believe that he has the right to sink to petty name-calling. Calling me "some sort of lackey"
The argument certainly could be made that any editor will have his or her personal opinions. That can hold some water. However, even though there are two opinion page editors, hiring even one with blatant public opinions on not just policy issues, but also on individuals, is not a feasible way to maintain disinterest on the opinion page.
It is time for action to be taken. Maybe if more rationality were utilized and opposing viewpoints were expressed, readership would increase. Until that time, we should simply assume we are reading one side of a story, a side seen through the blue and yellow tint of Delta Force.
While I'm on the topic of idocy, I should address the stolen newspapers issue. I do not — I repeat. I do not — condone the actions of those four individuals. However, holding Walker and Marshall financially responsible is absolutely ludicrous. Walker was adamant regarding the newspapers; he insisted that no action be taken. I know; I was with him all evening. The only thing Walker did not do was sit by their bed sides and make sure they did not make any irrational decisions. Holding our new student body president and vice president financially responsible is identical to holding a Democratic presidential candidate responsible for the illegal actions of a fellow Democrat running for a seat in the U.S. Senate. It doesn't make any sense, and the constant rallying of the Elections Commission by the editorial staff indicates personal feelings might play a significant role in what is published on the opinion page.
Ohlsen is a Utica, Neb., junior in political science and journalism. He was a campaign adviser for the United Students coalition this spring.
I would like to commend Lori O'Toole for writing a really well-done May 1 column on abandoned pets. I am a staff member at the University of Kansas, and during the years, I have watched as pets are abandoned in Lawrence when school is out of session.
lacks the journalistic integrity that an editor should possess. Not only that, but the focus of the column was that Hoffman claimed he was victimized last year and that Walker and Marshall should pay reparations for the newspaper theft — a crime they did not even commit. That logic astounds me.
Feedback
Many abandon pets at end of school year
We walk quite often at noon and see students walking adorable puppies, especially Labrador retrievers, and know that they probably will be left behind either at the Humane Society or in the streets or yards in the spring.
I'm glad that someone has publicly acknowledged the problem. Good Job!

Arab leadership halts peace in Middle East
I'm writing in response to the April 20 editorial expressing optimism that the Middle East peace process might be positively advanced by acts of good faith and concessions from both Israelis and Palestinians. I'd suggest, however, that there will never be peace in the Middle East as long as Arab leaders define peace as meaning the destruction of the State of Israel and the eradication of the Jewish presence in the region.
Anti-semitism of the nastiest, most diabolical sort is so deep-rooted in the leadership of much of the Arab world that Israel's leaders would be fools to offer further territorial and security concessions to the very people who plot their destruction. Everything from Holocaust-denial to fabricated stories of Jewish atrocities regularly drip from the
mouths of Arab leaders and are popular topics in the state-controlled media. Consider just one example — among dozens — from the July 2,1998, edition of the official Palestinian newspaper, A*Hayat Al-Jadeeda: "The truth is the persecution of the Jews is a deceitful myth which the Jews have labeled the Holocaust and have exploited to get sympathy."
It gets worse — much worse. Be assured, there are powerful people in the Arab world looking to finish what was begun at Auschwitz and they can't be bargained with, reasoned with or coddled into changing their minds. They must be opposed at every turn. And Jews worldwide must realize that while Yasar Arafat and his ilk might extend a hand in friendship, the other is quite possibly clutching a knife.

Student up for residence hall award
Bv Jessie Mever
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Dedication to the University of Kansas residence halls won Josh Burdette the title of Midwest Affiliate for College and University Residence Halls' student of the year.
Burdette's up for national honors, too, and at the end of the month, he will know whether he won.
Burdette, president of the Association for University Residence Halls, will be up against about eight other students during Memorial Day weekend in Boulder, Colo., for the National Association for College and University Residence Halls honor, said Randy Timm. AURH advisor.
"It looks like he has a pretty good chance," Timm said. "He has done amazing things here at KU."
But Burdette who has lived in student housing for five years and served as AURH president for two, modestly said he was surprised by the MACUR honor.
"I honestly didn't know they had bid me," Burdette said. "I am not a person who is always seeking praise. I wasn't expecting it at all."
Katie Bartlett, resident assistant at McColum Hall and co-president of Kansas Leaders in Progress, said Burdette was the perfect nominee.
"We decided he had a lot of great accomplishments that we could talk about," Bartlett said. "This is a pretty big deal, and
we're pretty proud of him."
Burdette's modesty shined through once more when asked about his chances to win the national title.
"I honestly don't know," Burdette said. "I hope so. But the other people that are going up for this award are equally good individuals and good workers and servants to their resident populations."
But, if he did win, Burdette said the impact of the national award would be much more than a personal honor.
"For me it would be cool to win." Burdette said. "That would be a great honor. And for AURH it would mean a lot because it would make the NACUR take notice of the wonderful things we do at KU."
Burdette will not attend the conference, which will be held May 25-28, because he will not be returning to student housing next fall. Instead, about 15 KU students who will be involved in student housing next fall will attend, and they will accept the award on his behalf if he were to win.
Burdette's involvement in residence life began during his sophomore year when he worked with the McCollum government and extended to AURH during his junior year. These activities have left lasting impressions on him and his life, Burdette said.
"It's been an incredibly huge learning experience," said Burdette, who will begin working toward a graduate degree in higher education this fall. "It's really made me look at things with an educational mind set and get involved more."
I will not share any personal information about you.

Textbook author responds to complaints
By Jim O'Malley
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Members of the school board of Unified School District 497-Lawrence have some more reading to do.
Last Monday, Parents for Objective Science and History, a group of local parents critical of the teaching of evolution in the public schools, presented the school board with an 11-page critique of the biology textbook used in Lawrence's high schools.
One of the textbook's authors has sent a 20-page response to the board.
POSH representative Ellen Barber said her group objected to what members considered a dogmatic approach to teaching evolution in the book. She said POSH presented the board with worksheets intended to balance the book's approach. The POSH critique and worksheets can be found at http://posh.roundearth.net/mis
sion.htm.
According to the POSH document, the textbook may contribute to prejudice against scientists with unorthodox ideas about evolution.
The document also says the book discriminates against some religious beliefs by excluding biological evidence consistent with theistic suppositions.
Brown University biologist Ken Miller is a co-author of Biology, the book the parents object. He spoke about evolution at a scientific conference last month at the University of Kansas. Miller said that after members of Kansas Citizens for Science told him about the POSH challenge to his book, he spent a day-and-a-half writing the response.
Miller said that creationists had challenged his textbook four or five times before and that POSH's criticism was fairly typical. All the criticisms have been circulating in cre-
ationist circles for at least 30 years, he said.
"That's why I was able to write the response in a day-and-a-half," he said.
"They do not explain why they take a special interest in just this one area of biology," Miller wrote, "leaving it to the reader to determine whether they have chosen this area in order to examine our book from a particular religious or political agenda. In their zeal to oppose the teaching of evolution, they have assembled a document laden with half-truths and outright distortions."
POSH's document said students who believed a common creator was the best explanation for similarities
in living things should not be ridiculed.
Miller wrote that nothing in his book called for such treatment of any students and that evolution didn't contradict the idea of a divine creator.
Miller's response can be found at http://www.kcfs.org/miller/analysis.html.
The school board voted unanimously last year to continue the teaching of evolution. School board member Leni Salkind said last week that she had not yet read either POSH's document or Miller's response.
She said the POSH presentation to the board was interesting. POSH members wanted to balance evolutionary theory with their own point of view, she said.
But Salkind said she wasn't sure there was another scientific alternative to evolution.

Cause of bonfire collapse released
Structural problems caused accident at Texas A&M
The Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas Texas A&M University students cut corners in construction and school officials failed to adequately supervise them before the bonfire collapse last fall that killed 12 students, an investigating panel reported yesterday.
Five people who were asked by the school to determine a cause for the Nov. 18 accident cited organizational failures and structural problems with the 59-foot pile of logs, which weighed more than 2 million pounds.
The panel said safe bonfire construction was beyond the capability of student leaders.
The commission said drinking and horseplay were not a direct cause, but were among the problems that led to an organizational failure.
"The most important point is the fact that a combination of factors and not one factor led to collapse."
Leo Linbeck Jr., the Houston construction executive who headed the panel, said a safe bonfire was possible if school officials had taken precautions.
said panel member Hugh Robinson chairman of a Dallas construction management company.
Linbeck made no recommendation as to whether the 90-year tradition would be continued. But his comment that the bonfire could be built safely brought cheers from the crowd of 1,500 students who filed the Aggies' basketball arena to listen to the panel's findings.
Texas A&M President Ray Bowen praised the commission for what he said was its thoroughness and precision, and said, "There's nothing I've heard that I disagree with."
He said he would take about six weeks to decide whether to continue the bonfire tradition.
"If I allow my heart to make the decision, we would continue bonfire," he said. "My heart will not make the decision. My brain needs to make the decision."
The bonfire event annually draws thousands of Aggies to the College Station campus on the eve of A&M's football game against its archival, the University of Texas.
The structure is built during several weeks with stacks of logs the size of telephone poles put in place by cranes, tractors and student workers. The logs are wired together, and the structure — which resembles a tiered wedding cake — is designed to twist inward and collapse on itself as it burns. The center pole consists of two long telephone poles spliced together end to end and buried 15 feet deep. It is held in place by guy wires.
During the collapse, wires snapped and the entire structure gave way. Twelve people working on the stack were killed; 27 others were injured, some seriously. One student left the hospital last month and is partially paralyzed.
Still, many A&M students and relatives of those who were killed in the collapse have said they want the tradition to remain.
The commission determined the structural failure was caused by excessive stresses on the lowest of the four tiers. Those stresses were heightened by excessive wedging of logs from the second stack into gaps in the lowest stack.
The lowest stack, however, had inadequate wiring to hold it together. Steel cables used in recent years were not used in 1999, the commission found.
The panel also found the logs were standing too vertical, the stack was overbuilt and the ground had a slight slope.
Another member of the panel, El Paso real estate executive Veronica Kastrin Callaghan, cited evidence of drinking, irresponsible behavior and hazing by student leaders of the bonfire project.
Callaghan said students and school officials ignored a sharp increase in injuries in recent years and overlooked previous structural problems with the bonfire.
The university should have ensured "controls were in place so if a failure occurred, results would be inconsequential," she said.
"The central message is clear," she added. "The collapse was about physical failures driven by organizational failures whose origins span decades of administrations, faculty and students."
The panel also included the chairman of alternative energy company and the former chairman of Texas Christian University.
"I think there is a lot of relief that the investigation is closed and we now know the truth behind it," said A&M freshman Doug Keegan. "Now we have an idea of the problems, and whether they can be corrected."

Local developer's vision meets many obstacles

both making and collecting for the last 25 years.
Heating the metal is expensive part and limits many artists, Elwell said. But he has a foundry at his home, 1147 E. 1400 Road.
So for 25 years, he has been trading services. Artists come to Elwell with a design, and he makes two metal pieces; one for the artist and one for himself.
Elwell estimates his collection is worth half a million dollars.
"I didn't have any place to display it," he said.
So Elwell, who said he was naturally attracted to the river, decided to see about the old Barbwire building.
"It was an extremely complicated process," he said, "because the land was owned by the city and the building was owned by the mall's owners."
Elwell said he spent two years acquiring the property — by getting all parties involved to agree on a use.
City manager Mike Wildgen began his current post in 1990, when Elwell was working on just that.
"There was no clear direction on what was going to happen," Wildgen said. "It was good timing on his part."
Bob Schumm, who was mayor at the time, said the city was enthusiastic about helping Elwell.
"The building was a total eyesore," he said. "We encouraged Mike to proceed."
But Schumm said he could also understand why the project has taken so long.
"It's a huge, huge building and it had everything wrong with it," he said. "He started from less than rock-bottom."
Elwell said that everybody knew what they didn't want to see go in the building — no food court, no office space, no apartments — and that left very few profitable uses.
Eventually, Elwell said he paid the food court, another business that has come and gone while Elwell toiled, $50,000 for the privilege to sell food in the building. They had not wanted the competition.
"Working it out with the food court was probably the single biggest obstacle," he said.
The project
Elwell obtained a temporary lease from the city in 1991 on the condition that he repaired the building's structure.
He said that three-year process included replacing the windows, reinforcing the roof's support system and tuck pointing the bricks.
Truck pointing means replacing the mortar between the bricks, which by the time he start

Elwell said you couldn't understand how long tuck pointing 100,000 bricks took until you tried it yourself.
ed working, had turned mostly to sand.
But throughout the decades, the building's workers had carved their names and the year into some of the building's bricks — a practice that Elwell said broke up the tedium of tuck pointing.
"It's fun as you go along to see all the differ ent names up and down the wall," he said.
According to one brick on the loading dock wall, BIG SAM worked there in 1855.
Elwell said that replacing the windows also confused some of the building's former residents.
"You'd hear a crash and you'd know a pigeon had hit a window." Elwell said.
This metal sculpture sits on a bench on the Barbwire building's ground floor. The sculpture's metal is melted and formed in a heating facility called a foundry. Photo by Anron Lindbergh/KANSAN
With the pigeons gone, he said, the next task was to clear the building of about 100 tons of industrial machine mounts and a lot of dirt mixed with all the unpleasantness pigeons bring.
Then in 1993, the Kansas River, which originally drew Ellow to the building, flooded leaving 8 feet of water in the basement.
The cleanup cost $5,000.
The 1993 flood and one in 1995 also cut power to the building.
Elwell had an informal agreement with nearby Bowersock Mills & Power Co., the hydroelectric plant on the Kaw River, and was using their power. But when the river level is too high, the plant cannot produce electricity.
But since 1994, Elwalt has been working on what is an almost-ready commercial space—a mezzanine level with rooms built to look like an English village, a dance floor, a pond, a sculpture gallery, a stage, a bar, a deck and a restaurant.
He calls it Abe and Jakes Landing — a reference to two fishermen who once worked the river.
The decor also recycles bits and pieces of the University of Kansas. It contains a door from the fire damaged Kansas Union, a decorative iron railing from the Sigma Nu fraternity house and parts of the old roof of the Delta Upsilon fraternity house.
"We used their old slate roof to decorate the roofs on a lot of the shops." Elwell said.
Kelly Miller, assistant women's soccer coach, worked on the project from 1997 to 1999, helping to build some of the metal parts of Abe and Jakes, including the staircase and deck.
"It was a really exciting project," he said. "He would salvage things and we would have to include them somehow."
Miller said Elwell was also good to work for because he was understanding about time conflicts — allowing Miller to volunteer as a goalie coach for the women's soccer team last year.
Not only had the mall changed owners, but it had also changed content — from an exclusive outlet mall to a building that was part mall and part office space, and will soon be part hotel.
In 1999, the mall changed hands and was bought by Riverfront Limited Liability Corp.
A decade of changes
"That forced us to put in our own elevator," he said. "You don't just find an 8-by-8 space in the middle of the room."
So Elwell decided to take out his freight elevator, which was equipped with 18,000 pounds of counterweights.
So much for the original plan of connecting with the Riverfront Plaza.
"He made requests from time to time about having a common opening between the two structures," he said. "I don't know what purpose that would serve."
Bill Newsome, one of the partners of Riverfront LLL.C., said the idea of connecting the two no longer made sense because of the mall's nature.
One purpose it would have served was that Elwell had been planning on using the mall's handicap elevator.
But to simply remove the elevator in the base
ment would have caused the weights to fall and take half the building with them.
Instead, a crew from Bowersock left the weights on the floor and disassembled the elevator, lowering it piece by piece down the nearly 40-foot shaft.
"The big weights are still in the basement. We couldn't move them." Elwell said. "That's a prime example of just the amount of work it takes to do one relatively simple thing. You multiply that times a couple hundred and that begins to explain why it's taken so long."
Elwell said that removing the elevator cost about $4,000 and that putting in the handicap elevator cost $45,000.
"There's no money in this thing other than my own," he said.
Elwell said that he had paid for the project with all his personal savings and income from local real-estate holdings — including the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St, which he renovated in 1955 and now partly owns.
Miller said that he and Elwell also raised money by creating metal sculptures for clients.
after re-negotiating the lease with the city last year. Elwell almost lost his power from Bowersock again — not because of a flood this time, but because of Kansas Power and Light.
KPL said that Bowersock was a wholesaler of electrical power and because Elwell was a retailer, he should buy power through KPL like everybody else.
So Elwell worked out an agreement with the city. He has rights to a strip of land on city hall property, on which he is laying electrical wire to connect Abe and Jakes to a transformer behind city hall.
"It was not an easy question to resolve," he said.
Elwell said that it would be strange to see the public coming in after 10 years of working on the Barbwire building but that it had been a fun project. He said he would play host to charity events and Sunday brunches in the building, whose specialty item would be Philly steak sandwiches.
"I think the building is incredible," he said. "I think they've done a really, really good job. It's come a long way."
Isaac Hilpman, Lawrence resident, has worked two catering jobs at Abe and Jakes with Liz Karr Catering.
Hilman said that he liked the river view.
DETAILS OF THE DEAL
Starting in Jan. 2005, Elwell's rent is $4,800 per year (he pays about $1 per year now)
Lease goes to April 2007. Elwell has option to renew until 2087.

Kansas signs Nash as only newcomer
Stevenson announces he will declare for NBA
By Shawn Hutchinson sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The decision wasn't really hard for Bryant Nash.
Nash, a 6-foot-6 forward from Carrollton, Texas, came to Kansas on an official visit last weekend. He said he toured the campus, talked to the Kansas coaches, hung out with the players and enjoyed every minute of it.
So on Monday night, Nash decided to prolong the enjoyment.
Nash officially announced that he had given an oral commitment to play for Kansas next season and that he planned to sign his letter of intent soon.
"I think it's been a long process," said Mark Bishop, Nash's high school coach. "From the fall until now he has been pretty heavily recruited. I'm just glad he's decided. He couldn't have done better than Kansas."
Meanwhile, Kansas' other recruit, DeShawn Stevenson, a 6-foot-5 guard from Fresno, Calif., told ESPN.com yesterday that he intended to declare for the NBA draft, despite his parents' wishes.
Projected as a late first-round pick by most analysts, Stevenson would be the first high school shooting guard to declare for the draft since Kobe Bryant, according to ESPN. And it leaves Kansas with just one recruit — Nash.
Nash, who averaged 15 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks on game as a senior last season at Turner High School, said Kansas first became interested in him in January.
Nash took a visit to Memphis last month, and received interest at one time from Texas A&M, Florida and a number of other Texas schools.
Bishop said that Nash played mostly in

BASKETBALL
the low post during high school, but he said he projected Nash would play as either a wing player or a small forward in college.
That's a project that Nash concedes will take some work.
"I just need to practice a lot so I can make the move between power forward to the perimeter," Nash said. "The college game is a lot faster, and you have to get bigger and have more coordination."
In terms of athleticism, Bishop compared Nash to Kansas guard Kenny Greory.
"He's very athletic." Bishop said. "He jumps well, he runs the floor well, he shoots the three well, he's got real long arms and he can give the opposition some trouble.
"He's a great kid. People up there are going to love him."
Another plus for Nash - he has qualified academically.
The same cannot be said for Stevenson, who signed a letter of intent with the Jayhawks last fall but has yet to receive a qualifying score on the SAT or ACT standardized tests.
Stevenson is awaiting the results of his most recent attempts for both tests.
He could come to Kansas as a partial-qualifier, meaning he could practice with the team but couldn't play in games. Stevenson, however, has made it known that he does not want to sit out a season at Kansas.
Darius Miles, a 6-foot-9 forward who played with Stevenson in the McDonald's All-American game in March, announced this week that he would forgo college and enter the NBA Draft. Miles originally signed a letter of intent with St. John's.
The deadline to declare for the draft is May 14.

Walk-ons endure pain, exhaustion for team success
By Brandon Krisztal sports@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
By the end of the week, Randy Withers' neck hurt from the constant pounding. As a backup linebacker he was playing running back for scholarship players during practice. His bones had been jarred so badly that he felt the pain a little more each morning after full contact drills in spring practice.
"It hurt so much that I couldn't even lean my head back in class," Withers, a Shawnee junior, said.
This is the life of a football walk on. They suffer bruises, endure injuries and fight off exhaustion. The reward? Simply the opportunity, with no guarantees, to suit up for home games.
There are about 40 walk-ons in the Kansas program. Coach Terry Allen's liberal walk-on policy — as long as walk-ons make grades and show up for practice they're on the team — fulfills the dreams of football wannabes.
Junior fullback Ryan Currier decided to walk on as a freshman. After his high school career ended in Sedgwick, Currier just could not give up the game.
"I wanted a chance to play Big 12 football," he said. "I could've gone to some of the other smaller schools and done that. But really, the challenge to come in and try to play Big 12 football is really what drove me here."
Currier said he just enjoyed the competition, regardless of the impact he made on the field during the season.
"Playing is fun," he said. "As far as actual game time, it's been pretty limited for me. I got in a few games last year and that was really fun. As far as the other stuff, I just enjoy playing football.
It's just something to keep me busy."
The Jayhawks held their annual spring game April 15. The players, including walk-ons, are still participating in off-season workouts, and many plan to stay in Lawrence this summer to prepare for the upcoming season.
Following the spring game, Allen talked about how much the walk-ons meant to the program.
"We've had a lot of walk-ons play, and play a significant part in the success of our program," he said. "Bottom line on the numbers, we could not get through practice if we didn't have the walk-ons. So we're just grateful to have them out there."
The walk-ons' value to the team is far greater than the cost to keep them around. Walk-ons get no money for tuition, no travel and no room and board. Their only cost to the team is in time from tutors and wear and tear on equipment.

Chenowith vows to dominate, improve in final season
Center to spend summer trying to revive game from sophomore season
To say Eric Chenowith had a good junior year would be a flat-out lie. His numbers dropped, his playing time shrunk. He couldn't even win a Student Senate election at a school where basketball players are treated like royalty by the student body.
From press row during the Pepperdine game, I could see the angest that was in Eric's demeanor. He didn't look like a guy who would dance around and shout "I love this game!" His expression was closer to Elian Gonzalez's when he had the friendly SWAT gry grab him from the closet.
Eric and I sat down the other day to talk about just what happened to his game this year.
Jones: Eric, the season is over, sum up this year for me.
Chenowith: For me personally, it was really frustrating, really hard at times. I remember my sophomore season and I'd wake up and be excited to play. This season, I would wake up and just not want to have another bad game.
Jones: You had a great sophomore season, leading the team in points, rebounds and blocked shots. Junior year, you looked like a different person. What happened in the off-season?
Chenowith: At the end of last year, I was so burnt out, and I wanted to take some time off. That time I took off caught up with me. When you're 20 years old, you don't make the same decisions Coach Williams would make, and I made a mistake and I'm paying for it. I don't think I'll ever be burnt out like that again, because I have such a great opportunity ahead of me. This will be my last year in the Fieldhouse, and I want to get a national championship.
Jones: It seemed that in the stands, every one thought they knew what you were doing wrong. Did you get coached by every person you know?
day, I was in the weight room lifting with the team. Some little 5-foot-2 Asian guy
Chenowith: Yeah, I sit in class, and people would say stuff to me. I think I've gotten more e-mails this year that anyone else at the University. Unless it was a really harsh one, I wouldn't write back. If it was really harsh, I'd write back and tell them that I hope God doesn't judge them as harshly as they judged me. Just the other

there watching us, and no one knew who he was. He walks up to me and goes "Hey Eric, people think you're a wuss." I'm like "What?" He says "You should think about that every time you do a lift. That would motivate me mentally." I said "Who are you?" He said "Nobody" and walked away. The strength coach stopped him and asked him what he was doing and he said "Oh, I'm just trying to give Eric a piece of my mind." Even little guys that have no idea want to give me advice.
Chenwihow: That first article that Derek Prater wrote, I was enraged. I wanted to pull a Manny Dies on him and break down his door. Then the next day you say I'm playing like a Playboy Bunny or whatever.
Jones: What about the stuff the media writes about you?
It's so hard because you work so hard for something, and you just want to have success for the school, then someone rips on you in the paper and it's like they throw it all back in your face. The thing is, I have respect for you because we've talked about it and we can laugh about it now. If you're going to say something about someone, fess up about it and be a man.
Jones: When you got the ball on the low block this year, what was going through your mind? Was it "I'm gonna dunk on this jerk!" or more like "Don't kick the ball out of bounds ...?"
Chenowith: It was "Don't miss this shot, don't miss this shot" more than anything. When I was close enough, I'd try to dunk so I could get a Jonesey Award every once in a while.
Jones: Most commonly asked question about you: Why doesn't Eric Chenowith dunk more?
Chenowith: If I'm close enough, I'll dunk.
Chenwitt: If I'm close enough, I'll dunk.
Jones: There have been times I've seen you where I thought you could throw it down, but you don't, and you put up some floater instead. Wouldn't you agree with that?
Chenwith: No. If I think I can dunk it,
I'm going to dunk it. I think I might miss
a dunk, I'm going to lay it up. I could try to
dunk everything and miss a bunch of
dunks, and embarrass myself even more.
Jones: What are you going to do to come back better next year?
Chenwith: The second week of May, I'm going to go work with my high school coach and team and lift with those guys. I'm coming back for the last two weeks of June. I'll be working Coach's (Williams) camp, and afterward playing pick-up games with a lot of the guys that used to be on the team but are in the NBA now. July, I'll be back with my high school coach again, playing summer league on the weekends. The first week in August, I'm going to work with Tim Grurich, one of the coaches for the Portland Trailblazers. Then I'll go to Hawaii for a week and go to Peter Newell's big-man camp. He's like the guru for big guys. I've been there before, I was actually the first player ever to be invited to the camp while still in high school. It'll be an awesome week.
Jones: So you're coming back next year ready to dominate, right?
Chenowith: This year was a frustrating year, so I'm going to make a lot of sacrifices and come out like gang busters. If I don't have a good year next year, it's not because I didn't work hard in the summer. I'll tell you that much.

Rain postpones 'Hawks' baseball game in Texas
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
Yesterday's Kansas (22-26) and UT Arlington (21-29) baseball game in Arlington, Texas, was halted in the top of the third inning because of rain.
The 'Hawks led the Mavericks 2-0,
after Brett Kappelmann and Doug Dreher both scored in the third
inning.
Kappelmann reached base on a leadoff walk, stole second and advanced home on pitcher Clint Faught's wild pitch. Dreher went to first on the same pitching error, and he later scored from a single off Jesse Gremminger's hat — the sole Kansas
The two teams face off again today at 1 p.m. for game two of the road series. Sophomore Dan Olson (1-1) is scheduled to take the mound for Kansas.
hit.
Junior Pete Smart allowed five hits, fanned three and walked only one Maverick in the three innings played.
Time and weather permitting, the last six innings of yesterday's game will be played at the conclusion of the first game.
Even before the teams met, coach Bobby Randall said the Mavericks would be a good indicator of the 'Hawks' improvement throughout the season.

Dye hits 12th home run leads American League
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Carlos Febles' RBI single capped a three-run 10th inning and boosted Kansas City past the Oakland Athletics 8-7 last night.
Jason Isringhausen, who was 14 for 14 in career save chances, was two outs away from saving the major league record for consecutive saves starting a career. The record is 15 shared by Robb Nen and Greg McMichael.
But Isringhausen (1-1) gave up a game-tying, two-run homer to Mark Quinn. Then with two outs, Rey Sanchez singled and stole second. After Johnny Damon was walked intentionally, Febles lined a clean single into left-center.
It was the seventh walk-off win in 11 home victories for the Royals.
Miguel Tejada and Jeremy Giambi homered
off Ricky Bottalico to open the 10th inning, giving the A's a 7-5 lead. Tejada went three for four with a single, double and three RBI.
Jason Rakers (1-0) got two outs for the win.

Aries; Today is a 4.
Sort, file and put your assets into rows. Do this in private. It's nobody's business but your own. This is good practice, in case you win the lottery. Even if you don't, you can become fabulously wealthy. And, why not? You'd do good things with the money.
Taurus: Today is a 10.
You have the world on a string. You are incredibly powerful; you can have almost whatever you want.
You are the 800 pound gorilla. But, you will have to live with your actions now, forever. So be kind and gentle. Think of others.

You'll get stronger in a couple of days. Meanwhile, stay secluded as much as possible. Consult your most trusted spiritual advisers and rest The conditions in effect today won't happen again. Make the most of this rare opportunity.

Leo: Today is a 5.
Just about everything is in Taurus today, in your Solar 10th House of success. If you take a job today, you'll keep it for years. Negotiate a deal you can live with — even if it's difficult to do.
Virgo: Today is a 9.
Foreigners are playing a more important part in your life all the time. That will be true for a while, so get used to it. You may decide to get another credential, too. It couldn't hurt, and if you have to travel to get it, so much the better.
Libra: Today is a 4.
Scorpio: Today is a 9.
Your lesson for today — and the rest of this year — is about money. Can you make sure you have enough, always and forever? That's what you need to learn. If you're just a kid, so much the better. You'll be a multimillionaire by the time you retire.
Your partner has taken control. You generally don't like to hand over the reigns, but if you've chosen wisely, it'll be OK. If you're hooked up with a person you don't trust, make a choice. Learn to trust or boogie out of there.

Nebraska quarterback to run in track meet
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch has joined the track team to get in shape after spending the winter and spring recovering from right shoulder surgery.

NASCAR fines team for illegal fuel use
AUTO RACING
The Penske-Kranefuss team was hit yesterday with a major penalty by NASCAR, which said the team used illegal fuel during an April 16 race in Tailadega. Ala.
Driver Jeremy Mayfield was stripped of 151 points in the season standings. Michael Kranefuss, who operates the team, which is co-owned by Roger Penske, was fired $50,000, matching the second largest in NASCAR history. Crew Chief Peter Sospenzo was suspended until June 6.
"There isn't a whole lot you can say under the circumstances," Kranefuss said. "Mistakes were made and there were certainly some grave errors in judgment."
Mike Helton, senior vice president and chief operating officer of NASCAR, said today that fuel sam-
plings taken after the race contained a foreign substance.
All the Winston Cup cars used gasoline provided at the track by Unocal.
Mayfield won last Sunday's race in Fontana, Calif.

Blackout lift means events will air on ABC
Time Warner agreed yesterday to return ABC to its cable systems for the time being, lifting a blackout that had threatened to keep 3.5 million people from seeing the Kentucky Derby and NHL playoffs.
The cable company agreed, in effect, to an extension to keep negotiating with the Walt Disney Co., ABC's corporate parent, about transmission rights until July 15.

The dispute left seven ABC stations off local cable systems, including in New York and Los Angeles, as of Monday. The blackout came during a sweeps period, when ratings are used to set local advertising rates. Sweeps began Thursday and end May 24.
The network, in the first season of a five-year, $600 million deal it and ESPN have with the NHL, will air a second-round playoff game Sunday from either the Colorado-Detroit or Pittsburgh-Philadelphia series.

Chiefs hire new personnel director
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Bill Kuharich, the general manager who brought Mike Ditka back to the NFL and then lost his job when they couldn't turn things around for the New Orleans Saints, is joining the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs announced yesterday that Kuharich would be their new director of pro personnel. They moved swiftly to replace John Schneider, who left last week to become the Seattle Seahawks personnel director.
Kuharich, 47, son of a former college and NFL coach, will be reunited with Carl Peterson, the Chiefs president and general manager he worked with in his first pro football job with the USFL's Philadelphia/Baltimore Stars.
"Bill worked very successfully with me during our tenure in the United States Football League." Peterson said. "He was also extremely instrumental in the tremendous turnaround and success of the New Orleans Saints franchise beginning upon his arrival there in 1986.
"Bill is an astute evaluator of talent and will definitely make a valuable contributor to the Chiefs' personnel department."
Kuharich spent 14 years with
the Saints, serving first as player personnel director, then becoming vice president of football operations after general manager Jim Finks died of lung cancer in 1994.
After two years in that job he was named general manager and executive vice president, and he later became president and chief operating officer in addition to general manager.
Ditka, the fiery and outspoken coach who won a Super Bowl with the Chicago Bears in 1986, spent four years as a television commentator after the Bears fired him in 1993.
When Kuharich brought him back to football as head coach of the Saints in 1997, Ditka pledged to take the team to the Super Bowl. But he was 6-10 in both of his first two seasons and then last year the team slid to 3-13, for a three-year record of 15-33.
In January Saints owner Tom Benson, saying he needed to clear the slate, fired Ditka, his entire coaching staff, and Kuharich, who had been given a new five-year contract just last summer.
"Unfortunately in this business if you don't win enough games, there are days like this," Kuharich said.
Earlier Kuarich and Finks turned around a Saints franchise
that hadn't made the playoffs in 19 years. In their second season together, their 1987 team was 12-3 and made the playoffs that year and four times after that.
Kuharich's father, the late Joe Kuharich, was head coach of the Chicago Cardinals, Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles, serving the Eagles as general manager as well. On the college level, he coached at San Francisco and Notre Dame. And when Peterson was player personnel director of the Eagles, the elder Kuharich was a scout for the team.
The younger Kuhrich earned a history degree from Middlebury College and started coaching as a graduate assistant at Brown in 1976, coaching the offensive backs for Hawaii the following year. After working for the U.S. Defense Department, he was an assistant coach at St. Lawrence and Columbia before going to the USFL.
Kuharich has worked with Terry Bradway, the Chiefs player personnel director, as well as Peterson, and said he knew many other people in the front office and on the coaching staff.
Both teams hold their training camps in Wisconsin and have worked out against each other during the summers.

Walk-ons' efforts see little glory
Continued from page 1B
The ultimate payoff both for the school and player may come when a walk-on's work is so noteworthy that he earns a scholarship.
"There is probably nothing more gratifying than a young man that comes in, chooses to come to the University of Kansas, and to have enough success that he earns a scholarship." Allen said. "That's a great story."
The walk-ons dedicate as much time to football as the scholarship players — 10 hours to 18 hours per week in the off season alone. The players commit time to practice, mandatory weight workouts and meetings, and they must work classes around that schedule.
Withers is a junior who played high school ball at Shawnee Mission Northwest. He spent most of his time last fall in the weight room with other walk-ons who were trying to get their weight up before practice began. After putting in the hours lifting weights to increase strength, the coaches allowed Withers to start taking part in practice. After almost two years in the program, the spring scrimmage was the first game action Withers experienced as a Jayhawk.
Like Currier, Withers sacrifices because of his passion for the game.
"This is one of the most important things in my life, probably second only to my family," he said. "It means more to me than anything, just the fact that I'm out here doing something I love so much. Being a part of all this, out here with all the guys, running hard, just trying, that's what it's all about. I just want
to run out of that tunnel once wearing that shiny blue helmet."
After they spend one year in the program, Allen allows walk-ons to suit up for home games. It is only in a player's first season, either as a walk-on or a red-shirt, that he doesn't sit up.
Withers admitted that when reality sets in, all the work and no glory can be disappointing.
"We've sat around and talked about it before," he said. "We all know that you can be here for four or five years and beat yourself
Goodrich: a walk on who should receive a scholarship after his performance in the spring game.
to death and the closest you'll ever come to seeing the field is dressing out on the sideline. It's almost a feeling of blind faith. You just hang on to that shred of hope."
Senior quarterback Dylan Smith said he definitively would not play football if he wasn't on scholarship.
"No way, no way." he said. "There is just no way that I'd play without a scholarship. You have to work harder than the scholarship players, basically get no rest in practice, and the coaches just make you keep going. Plus, there is hardly any recognition or media attention."
Senior tight-end Jason Gulley echoed Smith's sentiments.
"I wouldn't walk on anywhere,
he said. "I'd never be able to afford
college without a scholarship. Football is very time consuming and I think a walk-on has other normal student stuff to worry about — working, classes, whatever."
Junior wide receiver Harrison Hill is on scholarship, but he knows how much the walk-ons contribute to the team.
"I think they're real important," Hill said. "You need them every day in practice, whether they're on the scout team, or whatever they're doing. You need the walk-onts to go out there and make you better. That's fundamental on every team: to have the walk-onts go out there and work hard."
Although Allen's policy may be more liberal than many other Big 12 programs, he is not alone in refusing to cut anyone who wants to work hard and be part of the team.
According to Big 12 media relations director Bo Carter, every program relies on walk ons. No school in the Big 12 cuts walk-ons unless it is under penalty from the NCAA and needs to limit the number of players on its team.
The hard work does have some tangible benefits. The walk-ons are part of the team. They receive the same equipment and use all the facilities, from the weight room to the whirlpool, that the scholarship players do. They also have access to the academic support system, which includes tutors and first crack at classes in enrollment.
The end of the rainbow for a walkon is when he earns a scholarship. More often than some might think, walk-on does get scholarships.
Rob Bolks said there were usually three or four athletes a semester who began as walk-ons but earned scholarships through hard work and improvement on the field. Recent former walk-ons who earned scholarships include senior

game where he led the Jayhawks in receiving with four catches for 54 yards, Goodrich's scholarship may come sooner rather than later.

Goodrich played high school football in Middleton, Wis., and is one of the fastest players on the team. He said he walked on because he thought he could compete at this level and did not want to give the game up.
"It's beneficial all the way around," Goodrich said. "It's enjoyable. I don't regret anything in the past. I just waited on my opportunity. I knew it would come some day and I told myself I'd make the most of it. I just like being part of the team and doing what I can for them. It's always fun to contribute."

Pro players tee off to good beginning at Manhattan's newest golf complex
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Prairie Dunes, the highly regarded country club in Hutchinson, may have some competition as the state's stingiest golf course.
On a dreary Monday morning, pro golfer Jim Colbert sent a drive down the No. 1 fairway of the state's newest golf complex, the Colbert Hills Golf Course on the northwest edge of Manhattan.
"They called for a 50 percent chance of rain today, but that's not so bad, considering when we started this project, people only gave us a 20 percent chance," said Colbert, a 1964 graduate of Kansas State.
Colbert's drive capped nearly two years of work on the $11 million complex, which features a 315-acre, 18-hole championship golf course, a youth golf academy, and a living laboratory for Kansas State students.
Colbert, a leading money-winner on the PGA Senior Tour in 1995 and 1996, said the course was designed as a mix of competitive golf, education and research by Kansas State University.
"It was no surprise everyone came together because of what a fighter Jim Colbert is. Obviously, this is one of the best golf courses anywhere already."
Tim Finchen
PGA Tour commissione
He has said he had wanted to develop a golf complex where people could learn to play the game, students could learn to manage the golf business and environmental research could be conducted to improve the golf course industry.
Just two days old, some of the game's top players already have walked down its fairways seeded with zoysia, a creeping grass.
A lineup including Lee Trevino, Raymond Floyd, Annika Sorenstam and Colbert teed off Monday at the Founders Pro-Am being held at Colbert Hills.
"What an unbelievable effort to attract the commitment and bring all these people together," said PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem, whose organization has labeled Colbert Hills the first "preferred collegiate golf course" in the country.
The course also was designed to play as one of the toughest.
"It was no surprise everyone came together because of what a fighter Jim Colbert is," Finchem said. "Obviously, this is one of the best golf courses anywhere already." Our course also was designed to play as
From the back tees, the course plays 7,525 yards and has been tagged with a stroke average of 77.5 and a slope rating (degree of difficulty) of 152.
Before teeing off, everyone sat in on numerous dedications involving all the entities in the project. Included were the PGA Tour and its First Tee program for disadvantaged and minority youths, and the Golf Course Superintendents Association, which will assist with the golf course management program under Kansas State.
Public play will begin today. Tee times are already being taken.

PITTSBURGH — The University of Pittsburgh will pay a former football player up to $31 million to settle his lawsuit after he was injured during practice and paralyzed from the neck down, a newspaper reported.
Demale Stanley, 23, of Royal Palm Beach, Fla., was injured when he ran into a wall head first during a 1996 indoor spring practice, when Johnny Majors, now retired, was coach.
The Palm Beach Post reported today that the settlement would be $31 million with interest. Willie Gary, Stanley's attorney, did not immediately return a message left for him yesterday by The Associated Press.
practice facility. Doctors fused two of his vertebrae together.
Stanley said he could feel tingling in his legs and feet and had some movement in one of his wrists.
Stanley's attorneys said coaches routinely had Stanley run routes near a concrete wall during the practice and that he had run into the wall the previous day, but no corrections were made to prevent an accident.
Ken Service, a university spokesman, disputed the figure and said it was much less, but would not give an exact amount to the Post. He said the settlement was supposed to be confidential. Service also did not immediately return a message left for him yesterday.
Majors, who was also a defendant, declined to comment.
"Nothing can replace what I lost, but it does bring some closure," Stanley said. "I can focus on getting better and recovering."
Formula One driver survives; pilot and co-pilot are killed
Plane crash injures driver
The Associated Press
LYON, France — A small plane carrying Formula One driver David Coulthard crashed at Lyon's airport yesterday, killing the pilot and co-pilot but leaving the race-car driver with only minor injuries.
Coulthard's fliancee, fashion model Heidi Wichlinski, and his personal trainer, Andrew Matthews, were also on the plane and suffered minor injuries. They were discharged from the hospital.
Coulthard was taken to Lyon's Edouard-Herriot hospital after the crash, but was released later, his race team McLaren said.
Coulthard's team said he was
expected to take part in this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix at Barcelona.
But on landing in the early afternoon, the nose hit the ground and the plane burst into flames.
His plane was flying from Farnborough airport in Britain to Nice, France, when it requested an emergency landing at Lyon airport following engine trouble
The pilot and co-pilot were killed instantly.
French television showed pictures of the plane. The front was completely destroyed, but the fuselage seemed intact.
The 29-year-old driver won the British Grand Prix for the second consecutive time on April 23. He is second in the drivers' standings with 14 points, trailing Ferrari's Michael Schumacher with 34.
Coulthard began his Formula One career in 1994 with Williams and moved to McLaren in 1996.

Bird exemplifies a player's coach
Calm, relaxed he sets the pace for his players
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Swish after swish, the net snapping like a whip, Larry Bird sinks five shots in a row from different spots on the three-point arc, wiping out rookie Jonathan Bender in a game of H-O-R-S-E.
Again.
"I kill him all the time," Bird said with a grin as he walked off the court.
Some coaches might scream at their players after a listless loss in a playoff game. But Bird calmly takes his men through a couple of hours of easy drills and a shootaround that ends with him sinking a few more shots for good luck.
In his last days on a job he never intended to keep past this season. Bird still is the ultimate player's coach, one of the guays.
He's sensitive to what gets under the skin of players when they've been embarrassed, as his Indiana Pacers were at home in Game 2 and on the road in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series
against the Milwaukee Bucks. Although he believes he's not a good coach, he knows not to push them too much.
Here he is close to the end of his three-year tenure on the sidelines, unsure of what he will do next, and he looks neither edgy nor resigned. The situation is tight, but he wants his players to stay loose. He just hopes they will respond with the same intensity he demanded of himself when he wore a Celtics uniform.
And they did respond with intensity in Game 3, beating the Bucks 109-96 Saturday night in Milwaukee and taking a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series despite the absence of suspended center Rik Smits.
Then Monday night in Milwaukee, the Pacers once again lost to the hotshooting Bucks, 100-87, which tied the series 2-2 and sent it back to Indianapolis on Thursday.
Bird didn't rant on the bench or in the locker room this time, either, as his team stood one loss from elimination and he moved one game closer to retirement. Hands clasped like a schoolboy, his expression as stoic as ever, Bird knew his players would respond to wounded pride more than any exhortation he could deliver.
Bird never asked his players to shoot like him, to have his touch or vision, to score and rebound and pass like him, or to come up with the
"If you get the guys to play hard for you, that'll win you a lot of games in this league."
Larry Bird
Pacers coach
big plays night after night the way he did in leading the Celtics to three NBA titles. All he ever expected of them was to play like professionals, with the kind of passion he felt the game deserved.
So he looked puzzled and offended, rather than openly angry, when asked why a veteran team should be lackadaisical in the playoffs.
"I never could understand that," he said.
It was a rare lapse of intensity in the Bird era of the Pacers. In his quiet, dignified way, Bird brought the best out of his players by giving them a balance of guidance, freedom and respect that they appreciated.
Bird, 43, will walk away from coaching with no regrets, despite the fact he may fail to achieve his goal: a bert in the NBA finals and a shot at the title.
"You don't want to let Larry down," Pacers guard Jalen Rose said.
"I enjoy coaching, and it's been
very interesting, but I'm not very good at it. I don't like to do things that I'm not very good at." Bird said without a hint of false modesty.
"I'd liked to have won one once here. But even more than winning a championship, if I thought I was a good coach maybe I would have wanted to stay."
Not very good at it?
What about that NBA Coach of the Year award he won in his rookie season, when he led the Pacers to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals a year after they failed to make the playoffs under Larry Brown?
What about reaching the Eastern Conference finals again last year?
What about a 147-67 record for the best three-year winning percentage in team history?
"Well, I got a lot of good help, and I had a good team," Bird said. "They play hard for me. If you get the guys to play hard for you, that'll win you a lot of games in this league. But I'm not a great coach. I found that out last year, and that's why I said it's one more year.
Bird's highlight as coach, curiously, was not a victory but a loss. One very grudging 88-83 loss to Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in Game 7 of the 1998 Eastern Conference finals.
"I thought we really battled," Bird said. "We finally felt that we belonged.

Athletics Department responds to allegations
By Mindie Miller
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The KU Athletics Department yesterday answered a Kansas women's soccer player's allegations that two Jayhawk football players sexually battered her and that the department discouraged her from reporting it.
In a press release yesterday, Bob Frederick, athletics director, expressed his sadness for the alleged battery and said the department had encouraged the victim to seek counseling at the University of Kansas or elsewhere.
"We will continue to assist her in any way possible," he said. "Our athletics department has always emphasized to our student-athletes the importance of treating everyone with dignity and respect."
The victim said in a statement given to Lawrence police that on Feb. 26 two football players held her face-down on a vehicle in the parking lot of The Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St. She said they touched her between her legs, spanked her and taunted her.
She said she waited more than two months to report the battery because her coach, Mark Francis, advised her to go to the department first. She also said that when she and Francis met with football coach Terry Allen on March 2, Allen told her if she pressed charges it would be an unpleasant experience and he would not punish his players as harshly because the crimi

tice system would do it instead.
"I apologize for and regret the misunderstanding with the young woman that occurred as it related to our conversation," Allen said. "I was not, in any way, trying to make a deal with the student-athlete for her to not report this matter to the police."
But Allen said in a statement yesterday that he told the victim he would support her 100 percent if she wanted to report the battery to the police.
The victim said she went to the police because Allen's punishment consisted of making the players run stairs at Memorial Stadium, which she thought was inadequate.
Allen did not confirm or deny whether he made the football players run stairs, but he said the media did not know about all the actions he'd taken in connection with the incident.
"I have been working with my staff to continue our ongoing efforts to take appropriate action to eliminate unacceptable behavior by any member of the football team," he said. "Furthermore, if either football student-athlete is convicted of any crime related to this incident, that individual will be immediately dismissed from the football team."
Francis said in a statement yesterday that when the victim came to him, he told her she should talk to Allen and should consider reporting the battery to the police. He said Allen told her at their meeting that he would support her if she reported the battery and that he would deal with the accused players.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said yesterday that police had contacted one of the suspects, who had admitted to putting the victim on the vehicle but not to touching her inappropriately. Reporting the battery to the police earlier would have been in the victim's best interest, he said. "The sooner any of these types of events are reported to police," he said, "the better case we have a chance of making simply because evidence can be lost and time blurs people's memories."

BURIAL

A billboard east of Salina advertised the "Indian Burial Pit," which remained open for business until 1989. In 1990, the United States passed the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. The act requires museums and federal agencies that have Native American remains and cultural items in their collections to meet with groups to discuss the return of items.

STORY BY RYAN BLETHEN
Even though the Pawnee presented the white men with their Army scout discharge papers, a shot was fired. A Pawnee fell dead. A running fire fight ensued. When the smoke cleared, all the Pawnee had died and all the whites had lived.
It was February 2, 1869. A group of Pawnee men stopped at a homestead by Mulberry Creek in Lincoln County, northwest of Salina. Suspicious Kansas settlers and United States Army soldiers confronted the Indians. What happened next was a common frontier scene.
The Pawnee scouts were to suffer one last indignity. A surgeon at nearby Fort Harkin decapitated six of the dead scouts and sent the heads to the Army Medical Museum in Washington, D.C. for cranial metric research, a method used in the 19th century to try to prove the superiority of the white race. The skulls ended up in the Smithsonian Institution.
Francis Morris, a member of the Pawnee tribe, said the return of these skulls was important to the Pawnee, even without the rest of the skeleton.
Museums have collected Native American remains since the later part of the 19th century, including the University of Kansas.
"They are each individuals," he said. "Each small bone counts as an individual."
On the bottom floor of a building on campus, kept a secret for security reasons, the University stores its collection of Native-American bones.
Stacked against the two long walls of the 7-by-20-foot room are containers ranging in size from a shoe box to a computer paper box.
Human bones fill the boxes. In one box a skull with a dark hole where a spine entered stares at the top of its container.
Even though the University has only had an anthropology museum since 1976, it collected indigenous peoples' remains throughout the

first half of the 20th century
Now these items will be finding their way back to their tribes, their descendants, their homes.
KU's anthropology museum at Spooner Hall is in the process of returning its collection of Native-American bones and artifacts to 14 tribes who either live in Kansas or have lived in Kansas in the past.
The University is using a $71,270 grant from the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act to identify the museum's "unaffiliated human remains" and "associated objects" from archeological sites in Kansas. Unaffiliated human remains are skeletons or part of a skeleton that may or may not belong to a particular tribe. Associated objects are artifacts, such as necklaces or belts, that can most likely be connected to a tribe.
Maintaining Heritage
The Potawatomi have a word for their deceased: "Pastaways."
Rey Kitchkumme, a tribal council member for the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation and the Potawatomi representative for the KU repatriation process, said the return of his ancestors is paramount to his tribe.
When remains and objects are disturbed they become something they are not meant to be, Kitchkumme said.
"Those Pastaways need to be put back to rest," Kitchkume said. "It is part of maintaining part of your own heritage."
"A lot of those items have spiritual value to our members," he said. "They become material things when they're collected."

Students seek space to meet summer storage needs
By Doug Pacey writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
When school ends in two weeks some students will stuff, pack and force their belongings into boxes to take or ship home.
"I can't take all of my stuff home for the summer because it costs a lot to send it home, and I don't have a car to drive it back either," said Jeremy Ozias, Herndon, Va., sophomore. "I'm taking summer clothes, my computer and some other stuff that I need home. The rest is going to be in storage here."
But for those other students who, for one reason or another, can't take all of their belongings home, they will have to leave some of their stuff in Lawrence.
Students have a couple of options when it comes to storing what they're not taking home for the summer — they can rent a storage unit or leave their belongings with a friend in the area.
Ozias said he and a friend rented a storage unit and were splitting the cost.
St. James Self Storage, 2201 St.
James Court, is one of a six storage buildings in Lawrence that still has available units.
"We're relatively new so we have some openings," manager Wanda Miller said.
Miller said she had rented to
some students, and many others had called and inquired about availability.
"A lot of them said they were going to wait until after May 15 because the month will be prorated then," she said. "I hope they all don't wait until the last minute, though, but I'm going to have extended hours around then because of this."
Marissa Brumley, manager of Parkway Storage, 4921 Wakarusa Court, said her building was almost full and that she had started renting to more and more students in the past week.
"We've rented out to quite a few students already," she said. "It really varies, but I started seeing
a lot of students a few weeks ago, but the first week of May it is noticeable and will be busiest around the 12th and 13th.
Other storage buildings in Lawrence are either at capacity or near it.
Eric Corp, owner of Mail Boxes Etc. in the Kansas Union, said Mail Boxes Etc. had a program tailored for students who needed summer storage in Lawrence.
For $135, the store offers free pick-up, delivery, boxes, tape and 10 cubic feet of storage space.
Corp said the boxes would be stored in a climate-controlled environment with a professional moving company.

The following companies have available storage units for this summer. The unit size, price and availability vary for each.

Men plead innocent in February robbery
Two Olathe men charged with threatening a KU student with a gun in February waived their rights to a preliminary hearing yesterday.
Trent J, Percival, 20, and Kerry M. Duggan, 19, appeared in Douglas County district court before Judge Michael J. Malone. Their attorneys said the suspects wanted to wave their preliminary hearings, and they entered innocent pleas for their clients yesterday.
Percival and Duggan are charged with aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery in connection with a Feb. 22 robbery.
The judge set their next appearance for 9:30 a.m. June 9.
Police said the two men entered the victim's home in the 1100 block of Indiana Street through an unlocked front door. The victim was at home with his two roommates — one a 19-year-old male KU student and the other a 22-year-old male Lawrence resident.
One of the suspects pointed a gun at the 20-year-old student's head, Percival and Duggan were dressed in black and wearing ski masks, police said.
Police said the two men took a metal lock box valued at $16 and left the residence.
Lawrence police arrested Percival and Duggan Feb. 25 with the help of Olathe police. There were released on $25,000 bond each.
Fight about soccer match sends man to hospital
An argument about a soccer game Tuesday sent an 18-year-old KU student to the hospital.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said police were called to a fight at 1:49 p.m. Tuesday in the 2000 block of West Sixth Street.
The fight started because the victim and a 19-year-old KU student were arguing about a soccer match between their two countries, Wheeler said.
Wheeler said police arrested Abdulaziz J. Almousai, Kuwait freshman, on charges of battery.
The victim sustained bruises and a contusion to his forehead, Wheeler said. He was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and released.

Trial starts for 2 Libyans in Flight 103 bombing
CAMP ZEIST, Netherlands — The trial of two Libyans accused in the Lockerbie bombing opened yesterday after 12 years of diplomatic wrangling and painstaking investigations, with victims' relatives here and across the Atlantic watching a video showing the final seconds of Pan Am Flight 103.
The Associated Press
The two alleged Libyan intelligence agents repeated their innocent pleas and sought to shift blame for the Dec. 21, 1988, bombing onto Palestinian militants.
A hush broken by anguished sobs fell over the public gallery, filled with victims' relatives, as prosecutors played a video of the flight vanishing from radar screens.
"I can't face this anymore," said a weeping Susan Cohen of Cape May Court House, N.J., whose daughter Theodora was one of the 189 Americans who died in the explosion over Lockerbie, Scotland. "I don't think I'm going back into the court room."
"It was gut-wrenching," her husband, Dan, said. "I just sat through a session where they described the murder of my daughter as it was happening."
The high emotion in the court was fueled by the
relatives' long search for justice in the deaths of their loved ones.
International sanctions were placed on Libya for seven years in an attempt to force its leader, Moammar Gadhafi, to surrender the suspects, Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi and Lumen Caliph Fume. Gadhafi finally agreed to hand them over a year ago to a special Scottish court sitting on this former U.S. air base.
Investigators named the two Libyans after years of sifting through evidence and following a trail that began with a tiny chip from the bomb found in the scattered wreckage of the flight.
The defendants, who wore traditional white gowns and velvet caps, sat quietly in the dock, listening to testimony with the aid of Arabic translation.
Al-Megrahi and Fume are charged with the murder of the 259 people on the New York-bound jet and 11 people on the ground in Lockerbie. If convicted, the two men could face a life sentence in Scottish prison.
Al-Megrahl's brother, Mohammed Ali Megrahl, said he was convinced his brother is innocent. "We are looking for the truth, and we believe he didn't do it. If we believed he did it, we wouldn't be here, and he wouldn't have come voluntarily," he said outside the courtroom.
ON THE RECORD
A KU student's GT Outpost 21-speed 18-inch mountain bike and Krypton bicycle lock were stolen between 3 p.m. Sunday and 3 p.m.
Monday from the 900 block of West 20th Terrace, Lawrence police said. The items were valued at $379.
The KU Public Safety Office responded to a report of a sleeping man lying with his legs sticking out into the street at 10:38 p.m. Monday in Lot 36, West Memorial Drive. When they finally awakened the homeless man, police found him very inebriated with an open bottle of whiskey in his backpack. Paramedics arrived, but the man
refused treatment and walked toward Potter Lake.
According to the report, it was 50th birthday.
The KU Public Safety Office responded to a report of disorderly conduct at 1 a.m. Sunday in Lewis Hall. A KU student filed the report after someone had written unwanted and alarming messages on her message board.
A KU student was harassed and threatened by phone between 11:30 and 11:45 p.m. Monday in Oliver Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The student had received a phone call from an unknown person who threatened to do her bodily harm.

Former law professor remembered for dedication
By Doug Pacey
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A former baseball salary arbitrator and University of Kansas professor died at Lawrence Memorial Hospital on Tuesday.
Raymond Goetz, 77, of Lawrence, was a professor emeritus of law at the University.
"Students had respect for him," said William Kelly, professor emeritus of law.
Calvin Karlin, Lawrence attorney, said that Goetz received recognition for his work as a baseball salary arbitrator.
He said Goetz arbitrated in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Karlin took four classes from Goetz when he attended the University.
Todd Thompson, Lawrence attorney, was in Goetz's Contracts class in 1979.
"He truly did use the Socratic method," he said. "It always paid to be prepared in his class."
Goetz used the "rolling boulder" method in his classes, Karlin said.
"He'd go down the rows and call on two or three people a class session and have each one describe a case and explore the pros and cons." Karlin said.
Goetz would stick with the "rolling boulder" unless someone came in late or was popping their gum, he said.
"He was never mean-spirited but tough," Karlin said. "You learned a lot, and he was truly a gentleman and a scholar."
He said he remembered when Goetz taught an evidence class for a professor but wasn't entirely familiar with the subject.
"He threw himself into it and learned it himself," Karlin said.
Thompson said Goetz was an excellent teacher and was Kansas's Kingsfield.
Kingsfield, a the fictional professor, used the Socratic method in the book and movie The Paper Chase about the first year of Harvard Law School.
Goetz's family yet has not released information.
KU teachers honored with appreciation banquet
By Ryan Blethen
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Sixty-seven University of Kansas teachers will be honored for their teaching prowess at the Teacher Appreciation Banquet at 5:30 tonight at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
The banquet is sponsored by the Center for Teaching Excellence.
Fred Rodriguez, director of the center, started the banquet in 1998. He said he wanted to do something to honor teachers near the end of the school year.
Honoring teachers is one of the center's goals, Rodriguez said.
"One of the missions of the center is to encourage and support good teaching, and this is a good way to publicly acknowledge their work." he said.
Judy Eddy, programs assistant of the center, said the banquet was a great way to praise teachers.
"The focus is on classroom teaching," she said. "We wanted to recognize outstanding classroom teachers."
the honored teachers were picked by students. Each department chair chose two seniors to pick teachers who they felt deserved to be honored. After the two seniors picked, they then went through the selections with other students in the department. The nominees' names were then passed on to the Center for Teaching Excellence.
Mary Anne Jordan, associate professor of design, said being nominated for teaching excellence was a great honor because students nominated her.
"The most meaningful thing is that it came from students," she said. "I feel extra honored that it came from students."

The University of Kansas honored its top graduate teaching assistants yesterday during its graduate school awards ceremony at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
The GTAs were honored for their skills and dedication to teaching. They also will be recognized at commencement ceremonies on May 21.
Among the honors awarded were the Carlin Graduate Teaching Assistant awards. Francisca Paredes, Lugo, Spain, graduate student in Spanish and Portuguese, and Cotten Seiler, Louisville, Ky., graduate student in American studies and a teacher in the humanities and Western civilization program, were the two recipients of the Carlin award. They each will receive $1,000. The award was made possible by a gift from former Kansas governor John Carlin.
Stephen Goddard, professor of art history, won the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Byron A. Alexander mentor award.
Mark Ashbrook, Glenview, Ill., graduate
student in mathematics, was one of five recipients of the Outstanding Graduate Teaching Assistant award.
He said it was great to be recognized for his teaching because it was such a big part of his stay at the University.
Mark Harpring, Batesville, Ind., graduate student in Spanish and Portuguese, was also a recipient of the award.
"It's a great feeling to know I'm making a difference and helping my students," he said
The outstanding graduate teaching assistant award winners each received $500.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway attended. He said graduate students deserved recognition because they educated future generations and helped make a better society.
Provost David Shulenberger said the ceremony was an opportunity to thank graduate students for helping others advance in their respective departments. He also said the faculty benefited from the graduate students.
The ceremony also included a performance by Bel Canto, a group of graduate students in the School of Fine Arts that sings everything from opera to musical theater.

Government's attempt to break up Microsoft's monopoly is overdue
In the week following the announcement that the government would seek a breakup of the Microsoft monopoly, Microsoft attempted to label the government plan as dangerous. Microsoft is in a fight for its enormous life, and this time it seems as if it might lose. Unfortunately for Bill Gates' billions, the Justice Department's move is appropriate and long overdue.
There does not seem to be much talk from Microsoft that it is completely innocent of the charges that it operates a monopoly. Instead, the brass at Microsoft focuses on the severity of the punishment and contends that it is too great a punishment for the charges leveled against them. The problem is that the government has forced a hand where fines and small regulations do nothing to hinder Microsoft's monopolistic powers. It
Microsoft's kingdom stifles much-needed competition; fines will not do the trick
has been fined in the past, and it is not hard to imagine why fines do not affect the now-second richest man in the world or one of the biggest companies in the world.
Dividing Microsoft into two companies drives at the heart of what the government sees as an unfair monopoly. One company would control Windows and one would manage essentially everything else. For years, Microsoft has been able to bundle software in an attempt to choke competition in other areas such as the Internet and word processing. In computing, compatibility is key and Microsoft has always
wielded its operating system like a spoiled kid. No one gets to play without making nice with the computing behemoth.
Microsoft claims that it is a unique company and that its beauty lies in its ability to push innovation through a synergistic line of computer products. While there is no doubt that this kind of setup allows for innovative Microsoft products, it also stifles much-needed competition. From Linux to Netscape, competing products are crowded out by Microsoft's self-serving innovation.
The breakup of Microsoft still would allow Bill Gates to hold on to countless billions. Two Microsoft companies would continue to compete vigorously in the home-computing market. They would have to compete on a level playing field, though. And this is what Bill Gates is afraid of.

Elian case razes Miami government
The politics of the Elian Gonzalez case have been as out of control as its media coverage. In the wake of the federal seizure of Elian, two high-ranking city officials, police chief William O'Brien and city manager Donald Warshaw, have been removed from their offices in Miami; Warshaw was fired and O'Brien quit. Symbolic situations like this case should not destroy a city's government
These two men have not vacated their offices because of gross incompetence or failure to serve their city. O'Brien's concern was to minimize violence and keep his officers out of harm's way during the seizure. Yet this highly visible, mostly symbolic situation has torn
Situation is political symbolism, but mayor didn't have the right to be informed of federal raid
apart the city's administration.
The real problem here is that political leaders, or in the case of Miami's mayor, political figureheads, should not pander so aggressively. Mayor Joe Carollo's stance was against federal law and it dangerously exacerbated a public crisis. His rhetoric was charged to rally the Cuban electorate of Little Havana.
when a federal operation like the Gonzalez seizure is going to take place. If O'Brien had agreed, it only would have increased the chances of violence.
A city manager's job is to run the daily administration of municipal affairs—not to be the political ax man for the mayor. Carrollo should not have expected his manager to fire the police chief, nor should he have the power to interrupt the city's administration in such a decisive way.
There's no reason why the mayor of Miami should expect to be informed
When it's all said and done, Elian is with his father, and the mayor never had any authority in the decision. It seems pitiful for such serious measures to be taken about nothing at all.

Bullfighting in Spain better than Chiefs game
Climbing over cranky women and glaring, cigar-smoking men to get to my designated concrete slab in the rafters of the Plaza de Toros, I knew that no matter what my reaction to my first live bullfight, I was not moving.
Perspective
P
Should I be horrified, there were no aisles down which to run nor a huge mega-screen to distract me from the ring. I was stuck in my leg-cramping spot between a blood-hungry granny and a wrought-iron fence that separated me from the band that played at the beginning and end of each fight. In front of me was the wide back of a woman who would not budge and behind me a row of rowdy male 60-somethings sending cigar smoke and seedy laughter my way.
Emily Hughey columnist
Despite my study of Spanish language and culture since the 7th grade and the bullfight videos Senhora Cardenas showed throughout high school, I think I half-expected it to be like a pro-football game — Spanish style. Thousands of avid fans, high intensity, maybe some beer and a little bit of blood.
However, no one painted his or her body in the colors of the home team, but instead donned expensive suits, silk scarves and party shoes — even in the sunny nosebleed section where I sat. Instead of standing and screaming wildly for the duration of each fight, the voice on the loudspeaker called for complete silence save the occasional "ole" when the torero, or bull fighter, made a daring pass with the bull.
The crowd's concentration reflected the intensity of the sport. The sheer fact that the animals are raised for five years in meticulous conditions so they can be valiantly killed at the hands of a national hero is enough to sober any foreigner. Toreros and fans are so serious about the quality of fighting bulls that they dispose of those that don't meet the standards. One such bull, of the six scheduled that day, had a bad leg. After doing a somersault, it had to be escorted out of the ring by a small herd of cattle. In exchange, an alternate, spunkier bull was released into the ring to fight.
Although there was no beer in the stands like at Chiefs games, cigar smoke drifted from almost every male mouth and has been doing so since the advent of the sport. However, I saw a vendor tossing bags of almonds into the crowd after three of the six bulls had been killed, a halftime of sorts
during which the band played.
Although I've never been head-to-head on a football field, there was more blood in the bullfight than I wanted to believe. At the entrance of the horseback-bound *picadores* who provided the bull's first jab, my stomach dropped. Before long, a bright red shen spilled from the bull's thick neck as it romped around the ring, chasing the flailing the *capas*, or capes, of each *matador*. But it was neither bull's nor horses' blood alone.
It was the blood of unlucky torero. Morantes de la Puebla, released by the last bull's two-horned thrust to his human thigh and stomach. Tossing him 360 degrees around one horn, into the air and on to the ground, the bull stamped around his wounded assassin until the pink and yellow capes of others came to de la Puebla's rescue. Paramedics rushed the matador out of the ring and a new fighter stepped in as though nothing happened. The crowd's silence lasted barely a minute before they were calling ole to the new matador that entered the ring.
I was shocked by the insensitivity with which the crowd dealt with this young hero's grave injury. It just wasn't like the way a football stadium goes silent when the star quarterback lies still on his back after a bad sack. Until he walks, the crowd suspends in sheer terror. Not so in the Plaza de Toros, Incredulous, I asked Javier, the clarinet player beside me, what the deal was to the streaks of blood in the dirt as the dead bull was hauled out of the ring by a team of horses. He explained that danger was eminent in the bull ring and that no one knew it better than the *matador*. When something tragic occurs, it's part of the culture to move on with the purpose of the fight — to kill the bull — instead of allowing it to suffer while the *torore* is cared for. There is an equal amount of respect for the bull as for the torore, and the world does not stop when the bull dies, nor does it for a wounded *matador*.
Although it was shocking and sometimes painful to watch the sequence of events, I made myself take it all in. The trumpets, the whistles, the cigar smoke, the blood. Although not quite like the football game I'd almost wanted to envision, the bullfight ended up being even better. As sickening as it was at points, I ended up seeing not brutality, but a deep reverence for the strength and courage of the bull and its killer.
It even made me wonder what the cigar-smoking "aficionados" would have to say about a profootball game?

Politicians who held pipes should not hold offices
On May 19, 1940, Winston Churchill, the newly installed prime minister of England, addressed a fearful nation on the radio. On that night, he somberly delivered the news that Hitler's German army had just invaded Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and France, winning a devastating victory and beginning World War II in earnest.
He also pledged that regardless of the cost of life, liberty and property, regardless of the horrors that war would surely bring, he never would surrender to the Nazi war machine under any circumstances. He kent that promise.
through the Battle of Britain — England's darkest hour and also her finest. This speech would have been memorable for its content alone, but there was something else unique about it. Churchill was as drunk as a state trooper that night, slurring his words so badly that a listener might think that he was speaking German, which he certainly would have been a few years later if FDR hadn't saved his inebriated bacon.
ALEXANDER
Matt Murphy guest columnist opinion@kansas.com
The point is, even though Churchill is regarded as the greatest prime minister in Britain's history, and perhaps the greatest man of the 20th century, he was a dirty drunk, and he should never have been able to find work in government. Sadly, his story, as well as those of Ted Kennedy and Boris Yeltsin, show how easy it is for an enterprising drug abuser to gain power in this world. And these are just the drunks.
George Washington was known to have grown hemp on his farm in amounts that would land him a lifelong prison term today. And although hemp was an important industrial product back then, Washington's letters show that he painstakingly separated the male and female plants; pointless if you're growing industrial hemp, but necessary in preparing marijuana.
And then there is Oliver Wendell Holmes, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and one of the greatest legal minds in America's history. He was an ether addict for most of his life. One day, after an ether-huffing session, he came up with what he considered an amazing insight into the nature of the world and wrote, "Above all, there is the smell of terpentine."
Now, I ask you, do you really want a man who gets high and writes poetry about organic solvents holding an office as powerful as chief justice? I certainly don't. And yet we have a sitting president who has admitted to smoking pot, and the leading candidate to be our next president was a cokehead! Something has to be done, or in a few years our country will be overrun by an army of junky Congressmen who use their illegal campaign contributions to score smack from Marion Barry. In fact, this could already be happening. How do we know that our representatives aren't already passing more than legislation at their "Joint Sessions?"
The only way we can avoid this coming revolution, aside from declaring Ronald Reagan emperor, would be to require anyone who is elected or appointed to the federal government to pass a drug test. After all, drug tests have been used in sports for years, and they are becoming ubiquitous in the business world as well. Even a few high schools have begun randomly testing their students, bravely ignoring their First Amendment rights in the name of the War on Drugs. So if we, the people, have to be drug-free to attend high school, take dictation, or catch a football, why should the most powerful people in the world be free to pass a crack pipe in cabinet meetings if they want?
Luckily, things seem to be changing. As the recent flap about the president and Monica Lewinsky proves, people are finally beginning to judge their public servants not by their character, accomplishments or sheer ability to do the job, but by their personal habits. A random drug test of all Congressmen and federal judges should be the perfect way to continue this trend.
The modern miracle of drug screening should ensure that there never again will be a George Washington, Oliver Wendell Holmes or Winston Churchill.

Punishment doesn't fit football players' crime
In reference to the May 3 front page article, the Athletic Department's "response" to the alleged sexual assault of a woman soccer player confirms
what most of us already know: that rules of conduct apply in the arena and not off. There are not enough stairs or pushups or sprites in the world to make up for terrorizing a woman and sexually assaulting her. Apparently, Terry Allen believes otherwise, which, in my mind, makes him
as culpable as if he sexually assaulted the woman himself. I wonder what Allen would do if his players raped a woman? Take away their dessert at the training table?

Similar cafe to replace closed Jerusalem Cafe
By John Audlehelm writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff write
The Jerusalem Cafe, 1021 Massachusetts St., has closed but will be replaced by a restaurant with similar food — the Aladdin Cafe.
Mohammed Iskandrani, a Kansas City, Kan., resident who is moving to Lawrence, hopes to have the Aladdin Cafe open by the end of the month.
"It's going to be a lot of vegetarian." he said.
Iskandrani said he was remodeling and cleaning the restaurant before its opening. As a former waiter and manager of the
Jerusalem Cafe in Kansas City, Mo., Iskandarlani said he thought he could turn a profit with Aladdin.
"I hope so," he said.
"That's why I bought it."
"He was the nicest and friendliest guy we've had in five years." he said.
Adel Azzeh, Olathe resident and assistant manager of the two Jerusalem Cafe restaurants in Kansas City, Mo., said Iskandrani was one of his best workers.
Azzeh said that he and his brother Fred, who owns the restaurants, sold the one in Lawrence because they couldn't drive there every day to
manage it.
Dave Courtney, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said that he always had heard good things about the Jerusalem Cafe and wanted to eat there.
"I'm surprised I haven't tried it out vet." he said.
Courtney said the Middle Eastern restaurant would do well downtown.
"That's the place for a restaurant like that," he said. "A little something different every now and then is nice."
Even though Courtney lives in Kansas City now, he still has not tried the Jerusalem Cafe restaurants there.
"I didn't even know they were there," he said.
Metallica sues online service
The Associated Press
SAN MATEO, Calif. — The heavy metal group Metallica demanded yesterday that the online music service Napster cut off 317,000 users who have illegally traded the band's songs.
Lars Ulrich, the band's drummer, and attorney Howard King hand-delivered to Napster Inc.'s headquarters 60,000 pages of names of people who have been trading the band's songs online.
"If they want to steal Metallica's music, instead of hiding behind their computers in their bedrooms and dorm rooms, then just go down to Tower Records and grab them off the shelves," Urlich said.
Napster's software allows computer users to search for songs online and download them directly from another person's hard drive. Metallica is suing Napster in federal court to block its users from accessing the band's music via the company's computer servers.
Napster said it may comply with the band's request to remove users who continued to trade popular Metallica songs such as "The Unforgiven" and "Enter Sandman." Company spokesman Dan Wool said yesterday that the company would release a statement in response to Metallica's action.
Napster's founder, 19-year-old Shawn Fanning, issued a statement saying: "Tm a huge Metallica fan and therefore really sorry that they're going in this direction. If we got the opportunity to explain to the band why Napter exists and why fans enjoy Napter, perhaps we could bring all of this to a peaceful conclusion."
Napster attorney Laurence Pulgram dismissed Metallica's action as little more than a photo opportunity, adding, "It is important to understand that Napster does not itself make available any MP3 materials over the Internet."
While Metallica encouraged fans to record bootlegs of its concerts, the band's members drew a distinction between live recordings and its studio recordings.
"We are going after Napster, the main artery," Metallica singer and guitarist James Hetfield explained Tuesday in an online chat session.
The band said the violations of its copyrighted material were monitored and logged by NetPD, a computer consulting firm that found thousands of Napster users making Metallica songs available last weekend.
Metallica thrust itself into the music down load controversy on April 13, when it became the first band to sue Napster. The federal lawsuit filed in Los Angeles accused Napster of copyright infringement and racketeering. The lawsuit also named three universities that allowed students to access Napster through their servers.
Two of the schools, Yale University and Indiana University, were dropped from the suit after they blocked student access to Napster's Web servers. The University of Southern California also was dropped after it said it would permit students to access Napster only for legal purposes such as chat rooms.
Other schools, such as Northwestern University, have banned Napster because it was so popular it was clogging the computer networks. The University of Kansas allows use of Napster on its server and does not now monitor that use.
Not all musicians agree with Metallica's hard stance on online music trading. Chuck D of the rap group Public Enemy said he sees file-sharing programs as a way to reach new fans.
"We should think of it as a new kind of radio — a promotional tool that can help artists who don't have the opportunity to get their music played on mainstream radio or on MTV," the rapper wrote in an opinion piece Saturday in The New York Times.
Social Security looks to future
Social Security isn't just for old people, says William Halter, deputy commissioner of the Social Security Administration in Washington, D.C.
by Katrina Hall
writer @kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
"It's not only retirement, but disability and survivor benefits," he said.
By Katrina Hull
About one-third of people who receive Social Security aren't retired, including about 95,000 18- and 19-year-old students who acquired benefits in 1998.
Halter said he was concerned college students didn't care or didn't know about Social Security. In response to those concerns, the Social Security Administration has launched a nationwide campaign to inform young people about Social Security.
"The first point that is often lost in the shuffle is that Social Security will be there," Halter said. "And it will be there for my grandchildren."
But the current system, which was established in 1935, does face challenges as the baby boomer generation begins to retire.
In 1960, five people worked for the benefits received by every retiree. Today, three and half people work for every retiree. But by 2037, only two people will be working for every retired person.
Under the current system, Social Security can only provide full benefits through 2037. And these statistics worry many University of Kansas students.
"I am concerned, and I hope that it will be there," said Robert Choromanski, Lenexa senior and a Young Democrat.
Halter said he was confident that Social Security could be saved if the changes suggested by President Bill Clinton in his State of the Union address were made.
Clinton's plan includes using the current Social Security surplus to pay off national debt, eliminating interest payments and strengthening the U.S. financial situation. Without those obligations on the debt, the U.S. would have more money to invest in the future of Social Security.
"Anyone would say that if you live in a family household, you have to take care of your debt first before going on a cruise," Choromanski said.
But while Choromanski supports Clinton's plan, some Republicans have other ideas for fixing Social Security.
"Saving Social Security is a good idea, but I don't think the president's plan is effective," said Casey Connealy, Leawood junior and College Republican.
Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush proposed individual investment accounts, which would allow people to invest a portion of their Social Security payroll taxes in the stock market or other areas.
"Id much rather see individuals have power over their own accounts than have the government legislate my future," he said.
Conneally said that individual accounts were the only way preserve the system.
Halter and Choromanski disagree with Republican goals of individualized accounts, also known as privatizing Social Security.
"Privatization is not the answer." Halter said. "There's a number of concerns about individualized accounts."
a number of concerns about individual accounts. Concerns include the risk of investing in the stock market and the administrative difficulties when setting up the separate accounts.
Moreover, Chorromanski said that private accounts go against the system's purpose, which is helping everybody.
Although he's confident about its future, Halter said he couldn't guarantee Social Security's existence when today's 20-year-olds retire in 2045.
So to combat that, Choromanski said people should simply learn to save money
"Americans are not known to save money," he said. "We like to spend money more than save it."

New device to pump up women's sexual satisfaction
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — After years of advances in helping male impotence, women with sexual problems are finally getting some therapy. The government approved yesterday the first medical device to help women achieve orgasm by pumping blood into the clitoris.
The rationale behind UroMetrics Inc.'s Eros system is that blood flow into the clitoris can be as important for a woman's sexual arousal and satisfaction as blood flow into the penis is for a man.
device. Simply switch on the vacuum, turning it up or down as needed, for a few minutes until the clitoris feels engorged.
Treatment for women with sexual problems has lagged behind therapy for men. For years, men have had options ranging from penile vacuum devices to drug-filled suppositories to the revolutionary potency pill Viagra, which works by increasing penile blood flow.
The Food and Drug Administration approved Eros to be sold, with a doctor's prescription only, to treat female sexual arousal disorder, a female equivalent of impotence.
Until now, estrogen therapy and vaginal lubricants were women's main options. Viagra is currently being tested in women, but results so far are mixed. Other studies suggest testosterone, the male sex hormone that healthy women produce in small amounts, can help some women who lack it.
One recent study suggested that 40 million American women suffer sexual dysfunction at some point: inability to achieve orgasm, lack of clitoral sensation, diminished interest in sex, or vaginal dryness.
But female sexual dysfunction has long been considered a psychological problem, and doctors have only
recently realized that a physical problem may exist as well, said Diane Mitchell, a gynecologist at the FDA.
"It's helping to take female sexual dysfunction into the realm of being a serious medical condition," added Dr. Kevin Billups, a minneapolis physician who also studied Eros.
In the main study, 15 women diagnosed with sexual dysfunction tested Eros. More than 80 percent reported increased sexual satisfaction, and 55 percent achieved orgasm. Also, the women reported greater genital sensation and vaginal lubrication.
University, whose study found the device helped some women.
The FDA approval of Eros is exciting, said Irwin Goldstein of Boston
The study also found no side effects, leading doctors to predict that Eros would be a good choice for women who could afford it. It costs $359, and some insurers are expected to cover it.

Museum works to repatriate Native-American remains
Continued from page 1A
"With Indians, everything means something," Kitchkumme said. "Nothing has no value."
The Act
For years, Native Americans have argued that bones and artifacts should be returned to their rightful place. In 1900, the United States government sided with them, passing the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.
Rey Kikichumme, a tribunal council member for the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation is the Potawatomi representative to the University of Kansas in the repatriation process.

The act requires museums and federal agencies that have Native American remains and cultural items in their collections to meet with Native American tribes, Alaska Native villages and corporations and Native Hawaiian organizations to discuss the return of items.
The act also directs Congress to make grants, such as the one given to the University, to other museums and tribes.
The act falls under the broad heading of repatriation. Repatriation means the process of making amends or doing something to make amends.
Mary Adair, associate curator for the museum of anthropology, said returning the bones and artifacts at the University is what should be done for a couple of reasons.
“It’s the right thing to do,” she said. “It’s also the law. It’s ethically and morally the right thing to do.”
Dan Wildcat, professor in American Indian studies at Haskell Indian Nations University, and a member of the Euchee tribe of Oklahoma, said KU's repatriation process was an important step to take because it lent itself to the healing of old wounds.
"In our own native tradition, this is first an obligation," he said. "We have to make sure that this is done.
"Once that happens, we can really talk about trying to bridge some of the wounds and the hard feelings that have occurred and heal some of those wounds." Wildcat said.
When Native Americans received backroom access to museums they were stunned by how many bones were in boxes collecting dust.
"When we saw this, it really opened a lot of our eyes," Morris said. "It was really a breakthrough for all of us. NAGPRA (the 1909 act) really got things going for the tribes as a whole."
Adair said she would like to see the University and the tribes come to an agreement about what belongs to whom.
Sorting the Collection
This is not the first time the University has repatriated items. In 1996, the University returned three human remains to the Hai Malala I Na Kupuna 'O Hawai'i Nei, an organization that protects and cares for ancestral Native Hawaiian remains. The University also returned eight human remains and 23 artifacts to the Mandan,
"It's almost as if we exist as artifacts, and I think that one of the things that increasingly is being raised by indigenous people is that we're still here."
Dan Wildcat

Hidatsa and Arikara tribes of New Town, North Dakota, in 1997. In those repatriations, the Hawaiians and the Three Affiliated Tribes of North Dakota could prove that the remains held by the University definitely were related to them. The current KU efforts involve bones and artifacts whose lineage is less certain.
The second meeting between the University and the tribes is planned for May 15-16. At the meeting, the University and the tribes will identify what belongs to whom.
Sharon Fixico, associate professor of political science, government and indigenous nations studies, is acting as a mediator.
At the first meeting, Fixico said the tribes had the chance to view KU's collection. In the months since, the tribes have been discussing among themselves what should be done with the remains.
Identifying the remains is more arbitrary than the artifacts. The artifacts can be identified by the differences in design. Decisions about the remains hinge on the information each tribe has about where the bones were found.
"They may have a pretty good understanding of what remains are theirs." Fixico said.
Kitchumme said he hoped that the meeting in May would get his tribe active in the repatriation process.
The involvement of the tribal elders is important to Kitchumme. Even though he is the Potawatomi representative for the meeting, he needs to consult with the elders of his tribe before any decisions can be made.
"As a group we will decide to move forward with repatriation," he said. "I have to know for sure from my tribal elders that that's the direction we want to go in."
The process of going through everything held by the University is a daunting task for both sides. The University possesses 707 artifacts, such as arrowheads and jewelry, and 281 bones from sites in Kansas. The University also has 15 artifacts and 104 bones from sites outside of Kansas.
The artifacts are stored in the basement of Spooner Hall, separate from the bones. Lining the walls of Spooner's basement are 48 Army green metal cabinets that stand

about 9 feet tall. Four of the cabinets house the items that will be returned. Each cabinet has about 20 drawers labeled by names like, "Griffith Site," "Meek Site" and "Floyd and Adah Jane Schultz Collection." These are the sites where the artifacts were found.
A Good Experience
"The program itself has gone real fine," he said.
Morris said working with the University had so far been a good experience.
Kitchumme agreed with Morris that the University had been accommodating.
"It's gone very well," he said.
"Everyone who has an interest in this was given the chance to see the items at different sites."
Morris, who taught junior high school in California, said he understood why universities liked to hold on to remains and objects.
"I realize some of the academic people want to keep them a little longer," he said.
Fixico said that the University was doing the right thing.
MOVE IT YOURSELF WITH RYDER
"It's to the University's credit that they went and got this grant to do this," she said.
Kitchkumme said he harbored no hard feelings toward anthropologists and museums.
"Their job is to collect." he said.
Their jobs to connect, he said. James Riding In, associate professor of justice studies at Arizona State University, and a member of the Pawnee tribe, said not all institutions and museums had done a good job with repatriation.
"In Nebraska in the 1960s, a number of remains were incinerated in a facility that was used to incinerate diseased animals." he said.
There are other museums and historical societies that have not been as forthcoming as the University of Kansas. Morris said.

"There's only a couple of institutions that have dug in their feet," he said. "I'm not going to say their names. They'll get it eventually." Morris said.
Riding In said one of the biggest problems with the National Park Service running the program was the large number of anthropologists who work in the department. He said many anthropologists did not like the idea of returning bones and artifacts because they preferred to study them.
After grants run out, many tribes will not be able to afford to keep the process going. Morris said the Pawnee office for repatriation may close soon because the tribe's grant
ended Jan. 1, 2000. They do not have the financial resources to pay for the office staffing.
"We can't afford to have anthropologists and scientists on the staff." he said.
With all that has been done, Native Americans still detest the fact that museums have thousands of their ancestors' remains and objects.
Wildcat said one of the problems is the way archeology has been practiced throughout the years.
"I think that one of the problems that we native people are very aware of and often restenful of is this notion that people feel like they have to dig up the remains of our ancestors in order to understand us and who we are," he said. "It's almost as if we exist as artifacts, and I think that one of the things that increasingly is being raised by indigenous people is that we're still here. If you want to find something out about Pawnee history or Cheyenne history or Dakota history or Euchee history,
go ask Eueche persons, Lakota
persons, Pawnee persons.
"When you start layering on those levels then you really see why there's an objection." he said.
Returning Home
More and more Native Americans are returning to their tribes, albeit years after their deaths. In the last five to six years, the Pawnee have repatriated around 1,000 remains and artifacts.
One hundred twenty six years after they were killed and beheaded in Kansas, the Pawnee scouts were sent home. In 1995 the six scouts were buried with full military honors in Genoa, Neb.
Riding In said the repatriation of the scouts was extremely important to the Pawnee.
"Most Pawnee can trace their lineage to one or more of these Pawnee scouts," he said. "These scouts are held in high esteem. They were placed in the earth where they belong."

Kansas team to play Wildcats tomorrow
The Kansas vs. UT-Arlington baseball game scheduled for yesterday, and the remainder of Tuesday's game, have been canceled because of wet conditions. The teams will play at Hoglund Ballpark on May 13 and 14.
The Jayhawks, 22-26 overall and 8-19 in the Big 12, play Kansas State at 2 p.m. tomorrow in Manhattan.
High school student sets hitting record
KOKOMO, Ind. — Brandon Boles, a senior shortstop at Taylor High School, has set a national prep record by hitting safely in 52 consecutive games.
His single off Eastern's Rich Lacy in the bottom of the first inning Tuesday broke the former record of 51 games he shared with two others — Stan Brown of Cass High School in Indiana, who set the record in 1985, and Shawn Gallagher of Wilmington, N.C., who tied it 10 years later.
Boles, who started his hitting streak in May 1998, went 2-for-4 with two RBI in the 7-1 victory against Eastern.
"I've been a head coach for 31 years and this is one major accomplishment." Taylor coach George Phares said. "Our old school record was 24. For a school our size (400 pupils) to have a national record is tremendous."
Pitcher suspended for beaning player
Martinez immediately appealed the ruling from Frank Robinson, baseball's vice president of on-field operations.

"I'm hopeful that the suspension will be reduced on appeal," Red Sox general manager Dan Duquette said.
Martinez didn't comment on the ruling yesterday, but said earlier in the week that he did not expect to be punished for his role in two bench-clearing confrontations last Sunday in Cleveland.
HORSE RACING
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Fusaichi Pegasus, the curious colt who likes to look around, will view the start of the Kentucky Derby from the No. 16 post.
Horse racing fans pick their Derby favorites
He also is the early 9-5 favorite to get a good look at the winner's blanket of roses after a full field of 20 3-year-olds contest the 1 1/4-mile Derby at Churchill Downs on Saturday.
The last favorite to win the Derby was Spectacular Bid in 1979.
Trainer Bob Baffert, who won the Derby with Silver Charm in 1997 and Real Quiet in 1998, drew the first pick for post position yesterday, and he selected the No. 8 post for Captain Steve, the third-place finisher in the Santa Anita Derby, who will be ridden by Robby Albarado.
Trainer Neil Drysdale, who calls Fusaichi Pegasus playful, not temperamental, had the 12th pick and chose No. 16 for the bay cott bought for $4 million as a yearling by Fusao Segiguchi of of Japan.
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Minor leaguer Mike Peluso scored the game-winner in the third period as an unbeaten United States squad edged France 3-2 yesterday to clinch a second-round berth in the World Hockey Championships.

The victory enabled the Americans, who shut out Russia 3-0 in the biggest upset in the tournament, to top the Group D standings with a 2-0-1 (won-lost-tied) record.
"We feel very satisfied to have a victory tonight," said U.S. coach Lou Vairo. "We don't feel lucky. We feel we worked very hard and played very well, as they did. We just got one more goal."
France finished 1-2-0.

Quarterback legend dies in Las Vegas at 90
MIAMI — Former All-American quarterback Harry Newman, who
threw the first touchdown pass in an NFL championship game and played with former President Gerald Ford at Michigan, died Tuesday at age 90 in Las Vegas.
Newman, a longtime Florida resident, played for the New York Giants from 1933 to 1935. His 29 yard touchdown pass to Red Badgro gave the Giants a 7-6 half-time lead in the first NFL title game in 1933, but they lost to the Chicago Bears 23-21.
With Newman's help, the Giants won the NFL title the following year, beating the Bears 30-13 for the championship in the famous "Sneakers Game."
NFL
"From a fine field, Newman stood well above the land," the legendary Grantland Rice wrote. "He made Michigan's run of eight successive victories possible with his passing, running and place kicking."
After his football career, Newman had auto dealerships in Detroit and Denver. After retiring, he lived in Pompano Beach, Fla., for 30 years before moving earlier this year to Las Vegas.
OLYMPICS
Khannouchi to skip U.S. marathon trials
NEW YORK — After realizing his
dream of becoming an American citizen, an emotional Khalid Khannouchi decided yesterday to skip the U.S. Olympic marathon trials.
Fighting back tears, the world record-holder in the marathon said he is not fit enough to race Sunday in Pittsburgh, meaning he will not compete as a marathoner for the United States at the Sydney Olympics.
"My heart wants to run, but what can I say?" the Moroccanborn runner said at a news conference.
Khannouchi does hope to compete in the 10,000-meter event in the Olympics. The U.S. Olympic track and field trials are in Sacramento, Calif., in July.
He said he made his decision after speaking with trainer Gerard Hartmann, who advised him not to run because of ankle and hamstring injuries.
"I feel very sorry for the people who have worked so hard for me in this case," Khannouchi said.
Hartmann said Khannouchi would need four to six weeks to recuperate from the ligament damage in his left ankle and the strain in his right hamstring.

NBA not a done deal for recruit
By Shawn Hutchinson
By Shawn Murchin
sports@kanson.com
Kansas sportswriter
DeShawn Stevenson hasn't made his entry into the NBA Draft official just yet.
Stevenson, a 6-foot-5 guard from Fresno, Calif., and one of the most heralded high school prospects in the nation, told ESPN.com on Tuesday night that he was bypassing college and declaring for the draft.
Stevenson was supposed to hold a press conference yesterday to make his declaration for the draft official. But a source from the Fresno Bee newspaper said last night that the press conference was canceled.
That doesn't necessarily mean Stevenson is having second thoughts about declaring.
the source said.
Stevenson, who signed a letter-of-intent with Kansas last fall, could not be reached for comment yesterday. Kansas coach Roy Williams was out of town yesterday and is expected to release a statement today.
Stevenson has long been rumored to enter the draft because he had yet to receive a qualifying test score on either the ACT or SAT.
"It's something that I want to do and it's my dream, and I'm going to go ahead and do it." Stevenson told ESPN.com on Tuesday.
If and when Stevenson does make his declaration official, he will automatically forfeit his college eligibility. Thus, even if Stevenson pulls his name out of the draft for some reason, his college career is finished
regardless.
Stevenson is rated the best college wing prospect in the nation and the No. 3 prospect overall by recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons. Stevenson averaged nearly 30 points a game last season at Washington Union High School, and scored a game-high 25 points on 12-for-19 shooting from the floor during the McDonald's All-American Game in March.
"We are scared for him," Terry Popps, Stevenson's stepfather, told ESPN.com on Tuesday. "I'm not saying he won't do well. The league is very young. I don't think there's enough room for DeShawn."
Kansas' only other recruit is 6-6 forward Bryant Nash from Carrollton, Texas, who gave an oral commitment to Kansas earlier in the week. Nash has qualified academically and averaged 15 points and 10 rebounds last season in leading Turner High School to a 25-8 record.
Mario Kinsey, a 6-2 guard from Waco, Texas, signed a letter-of-intent with the Kansas football team in February. He is expected to take a football redshirt and join the basketball team in the fall as a walk-on. Meanwhile, Chris Zerbe, a 6-5 sophomore forward from Hutchinson Community College, also is expected to walk-on.
The Jayhawks also are expecting the services of two non-scholarship players next season.
Hammering away

Achieving success in nursing school, sport a juggling act for senior thrower
By Sarah Warren
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
In a world of Goliaths, Chris Dunback is easily David.
At 6 feet tall and 210 pounds, the senior hammer thrower is diminutive among Big 12 throwers. A world that includes the likes of Dumback's gigantic Kansas teammates sophomore Ryan Speers, 6-0, 280 pounds, and junior Scott Russell 6-9 and 275 pounds.
And although his size may be lacking, every single inch of Dunback loves track and field.
"He's always out there to do his best," Russell said. "He won't quit until he gets a personal best."
As an exceptional but burned-out high school athlete, Dunback turned down athletic scholarships to attend Kansas. Participating in football, basketball, track and summer league baseball in high school and hitting the books hard enough to be Belleville High School's validictor took its toll. But finding
himself yearning for his former athletic life, Dunback walked on to the track team his freshman year at Kansas.
"September of my freshman year I was sitting in my dorm room, and decided I couldn't stand it anymore," Dumback said. "I came out to practice one day and threw a little, and Lorri (LaRowe, throws coach) said, 'Put on your sweats, you're on the team.'"
Dunback is half convinced it's his academic prowess (he has a 3.9 GPA), rather than his athletic talent that keeps him clad in the pink and blue.
"I always used to joke with coach about how the only reason they kept me on the team is to keep the GPA up," Dunback said. "But she says I'm full of cran."
In fact, LaRowe said that it was all of Dunback's strengths — grades, athletic abilities and dedication — that have impressed her since that first practice.
"I admire him a lot," LaRowe said.
"There are very few athletes that
will make concessions with their lives for a sport. I wish I had more like him."
Two days a week, Dunback attends classes at University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan, where he is in nursing school. Two more days a week he works 12-hour shifts at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. And with the 'Hawks hectic traveling schedule eating up his weekends, Dunback has little time to devote to practice.
And these concessions Dunback makes for this sport make him even more of a track and field oddball.
"When Chris got into nursing school his junior year, we sat down to figure out how to make it work, and I think we've done that." LaRowe said. "He's a senior now; he knows what to do. He just has to come in and work on the technical stuff."
That means Dumback can attend only one official practice a week. He must lift weights on his own time and regularly go out to the field after his hospital shifts and throw until
dark.
"Now, with daylight savings time, I've got a good hour after work that I can throw." Dunback said. "I'll throw until I can't see."
And even though Dunback can self-train well enough to stay competitive, solitude has left him missing his teammates.
"They're my best friends; I miss them a lot," Dunback said. "But, they've been really supportive of me."
During the indoor season, Speers even changed around his schedule specifically to work out Tuesday nights with Dumback. That support not only keeps Dumback feeling like part of the team, but also, according to LaRowe, gives him time to teach the younger throwers.
"He leads by example for them," LaRowe said. "He has a great work ethic, and with what he does, he has to."
And that work ethic has begun to pay off.
Last year, Dunbuck placed eighth in the hammer at the Big 12 Outdoor
Conference meet. And this year he made the trip to each of the "Triple Crown" meets — the Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays — and is chugging right along to this year's conference meet, which will be held May 19 to 21 in Columbia, Mo. graduation weekend.
"I'm only in school once," Dunback said. "I'm never going to be an athlete like this again, and hopefully it'll be worth it come conference. I'll miss graduation, but it's worth it."
Dunback said he would walk down the Hill later — after completing his degree in anesthesia.
So nothing, including graduation, can keep this David from getting his chance to beat a conference full of giants.
"He rises above his size and his hectic schedule, and I think he's really starting to believe that he's up there with the top guys in the conference," LaRowe said. "There's not too many people who can do what de does. His plate is loaded — not with food but with life."
Oakland racks up the hits en route to 14-5 win against Royals
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Terrence Long, Jeremy Giambi and Eric Chavez homered as the Athletics set an Oakland record with 10 hits in the seventh inning of a 14-5 rout of the Kansas City Royals last night.
The A's sent 13 men to the plate against Jay Witaskig and Jason Rakers in an eight-run seventh. Giambi and Ben Greve each had two hits and one RBI in the seventh for the A's, who have won five of their last six games on the road.
Ramon Hernandez was the only A's starter without a hit or an RBI.
Oakland has had nine hits in an inning three times, most recently in the first inning against the Angels on July 5,1996.
The A's had three homers and seven doubles. Seven A's had at least two hits. Tejada had four, and Olmedo Saenz and Frank Menechino had three apiece in the 20-hit attack. Long had three RBI. Tejada, Giambi, Grieve and Saenz all had two RBI.
The A's were leading 4-2 when Giambi hit the first pitch from Witasick for his 11th home run. After singles by Saenz and Grieve, Long hit a three-run homer to make it 8-2.
Rakers relieved Witasick and one out later.
Chavez hit his fourth homer. Ryan
Christenson added an RBI double, Miguel Tejada had a run-scoring single and Grieve capped the inning with an RBI double.
Gil Heredia (3-2) allowed two runs and 11 hits in 6 1/3 innings for the win.
Jeff Suppan (1-3) allowed three runs and six hits in five innings.

Royals
Kansas City's Carlos Beltran left the game with a wrist injury after saving a run with a diving catch in left-center in the third. Beltran, the 1999 A rookie of the year, did a
Sports Columnist
bellyflop catching Grieve's two-out sinking liner and sustained a sprained left wrist and was listed dav-to-dav.
The A's went ahead 3-2 in the fifth on RBI singles by Tejada and Saenz, then scored a run in the sixth on Menechino's RBI double.
The A's got a run in the first on a fielder's choice grounder by Saenz, then Mike Sweeney hit a two-run homer for the Royals in the bottom of the first.
Sweeney added a two-run single in the ninth. He went 3-for-5 with four RBI.
Notes: Johnny Damon's first-imming single stretched his hitting streak to 11 games. He also leads the majors with 12 stolen bases and has not been thrown out.

M
Slap on wrist not enough for assault
My feelings on this issue stem from two points.
The article about a women's soccer team member allegedly being sexually assaulted by two Kansas football players made my stomach squirm and cringe until I almost puked. I felt sick, and I felt angry — make that outraged.
1. I am a normal human being, I think anyone would be disgusted by the alleged behavior of the two football players.
But regardless of my personal feelings, no one deserves to be treated like that.
There is another point that should not go unnoticed: how poorly the situation was handled.
After the alleged attack took place, soccer coach Mark Francis said he advised the player to consider speaking to the police and to meet with football coach Terry Allen.
The meeting with Allen causes the greatest concern.
This crime is extremely serious. Speaking to police is definitely an appropriate course of action. Sexual assault is not a prank, as these football players may have thought. There's nothing funny about this. It is a disrespectful, sick crime and should be treated as such.
Allen said he told her she could report this matter to the police and he would support her. He also said he would handle the matter with his players.
Allen said a misunderstanding may have occurred during the meeting. The assaulted player said Allen gave her two options: going to the police, or letting Allen punish the players in an "appropriate way." She said they agreed on the second option.
Obviously running stairs, and any other punishment Allen may have levied on his players, didn't get the message across. The victim was told on April 14 by her academic advisor that the two football players had allegedly sexually assaulted another University student.
Both coaches seem to have expressed their desire to support the victim and that is honorable. The problem arises with the punishment of the alleged aggressors.
"The worst part is that I know both (players) are laughing about what happened, and they know nothing is going to happen to them," she said.
Allen punished them by having them run stairs, according to the soccer player. What kind of a punishment is that? How is it "appropriate?" Running stairs is a high school punishment for jumping off-sides twice in a row — not for sexually assaulting women. Weighing the two mistakes, sexual assault is by far more serious. It's like comparing robbing a bank and swiping a candy bar from Dillons. The punishment doesn't fit the crime.
She's right, too, and it's a dam shame. While a good person at heart, excellent role model and a very good football coach, Allen lacks in the discipline category. Sure, Dion Rayford received a tough punishment for "The Chalupa Incident," but that made national news so something had to be done. When things are kept quiet, a dunce cap is administered, the player sits in the corner and feels like a chump for 20 minutes. Then it's back to life as normal.
I'm tired of the, the victim is tired of it and you should be, too. My advice: press charges. If the players are found guilty, put 'em in a butter-basted pan and let them fry on a hot open flame. Let them feel the pain and suffering they've allegedly caused.
Crimes like this are premeditated. Allen needs to make his punishments this way, too. Set a standard up front. If the players are guilty, yank their scholarship and kick them off the team. Make a statement and send them to jail.
Otherwise, I'm going to continue feeling sick for a long time.

"One of the things I always associate with summer is outdoor concerts." - Katie Bartkoak, Brooklyn
WEEKEND SHOW

Students ride the music fest wave

Say goodbye to Lollapalooa, Lilith Fair and the concert formerly known as Woodstock.
Bands weren't interested in signing up for the all-day rock 'n' roll fest. Sarah McLachlan took a break because she wanted to start a family, and the Woodstock '99 riots perverted the original festival message of peace, love and happiness.
Outdoor music festivals are not dead, however. In fact, several of them will be coming to the Lawrence and Kansas City areas this summer.
Omega Festival at Clinton State Park kicks off the festivities today at 2 d.m.
Chuck Baker, the festival's organizer, has replicated the old Woodstock atmosphere with camping, bonfires and beer.
Hillary Goldberg, Highland Park, Ill., senior, said the three-day extravaganza was the perfect place to spend the weekend before cramming for finals.
You just listen to music, drink, dance, grill and sleep," she said.
Baker booked national and local bands. The Schwag, ekoostik hookah and the Floodplain Gang will perform along with nine other bands.
But when the music stops, the party is
far from finished.
"The only rules out there are no glass and no unkind people." he said
Baker encouraged people planning on bringing beer to bring kegs.
"They're not going to care what's in your cup," he said. "If they see you with a cup in your hand, they'll come talk to you."
The festival began in 1970 with 20 people loading kegs into trucks and listening to music in the cornfields while roasting a pig. By the late '70s, almost 5,000 people were reinventing their living rooms under the stars.
The festival's name, as well as its atmosphere, has transformed from Big Eat to Omegakager to Omega to today's Omega Festival.
"It is one of my favorite times of year." said Angie Uskokovich, St. Louis, Mo., senior. "The weather is always perfect for camping, and it is one of the few times that you can party like that out at Clinton."
Baker said a chunk of the proceeds were being donated to non-profit and nonpolitical organizations such as Meals on Wheels. He said he expected 5,000 to 8,000 people at this year's revelry.
Tickets for the festival can be purchased before the show at The Phil Zone, 1405 Massachusetts St.
On Saturday, Student Union Activities
"You just listen to music, drink, dance, grill and sleep."
Hillary Goldberg Highland Park, Ill., senior
is sponsoring Day on the Hill with headliner The Urge.
Marie Dispenza, live music coordinator for SUA, said there wasn't really a theme to the University festival.
"A lot of the bands don't sound anything alike," she said. "It's representative of the different types of music that are out there."
She said that although The Urge wasn't SUA's first choice, the organization had gotten a lot of positive feedback from students.
Amber Cuevas, Ottawa sophomore, said she was glad the band was coming to Day on the Hill.
Music genres will range from the hiphop group The Co'op, who won the Battle of the Bands at the the Bottleneck two weeks ago, to country-rock band Rex Hobart and the Misery Boys.
"They're upbeat, jump-around type music," she said.
Day on the Hill started out as the Jayhawk Jam in Spring 1978 on the lawn in front of Allen Fieldhouse. In May 1979, the name was changed to Wheatstock.
Throughout most of the 1980s, the annual music festival was called different names and occurred at different times of year.
But in 1989, the festival became Day on the Hill and students camped out on the main part of Campanile Hill. It has since been moved to the west side of the Hill behind Carruth-O'Leary Hall.
Cuevas said she liked Day on the Hill because it was outside and there was a relaxed atmosphere.
"People were lying on the ground and playing frisbee," she said. "It's just a laidback atmosphere. Indoor concerts are too loud because the sound is so confined."
Part of the appeal is the freedom of the outdoors. Dispenza said.
"I think especially this time of year — it’s spring — nice weather," she said. "They spend the whole winter in smoky bars and it's a good feeling to get out of the smoke-filled bars and have a less-restrictive feel to the day."
Some listeners even bring couches to the hill to sit on while they listen, Dispenza said.
Sandstone Amphitheater in Bonner Springs is another nearby outdoor venue that attracts outdoor music festivals.
Katie Bartkoski, Basee junior, lived close to the amphitheater in high school.
"One of the things I always associate with summer is outdoor concerts," she said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (May 4). You're coming into your own this year. You're increasingly sure of yourself and it shows. Stand up to authority figures in May and they'll treat you with greater respect. Spend money on yourself in June and tune up your image. Learn what you need to do next and how to do it in July. Things should go your way through the summer and fall. Around mid-December you could have a setback, but you're strong and smart enough to handle it. Accept new responsibilities around February.
Aries: Today is a 5
By now you should know how to be thrifty. Don't take risks. Tell people who want your money that you're still thinking about it. Read the fine print and do the homework. Don't be ashamed to make a deal that works for you.
Taurus: Today is a 10
Gemini: Today is a 4
Move quickly. That's not easy for you, but it's time. Take action on something you've thought about for a long time. You have an incredible advantage, but conditions are changing. Grab this chance and make a difference.
You'll come out of hiding by tomorrow. You're almost finished. You're about to have a breakthrough and then you'll want to take action. Don't rush things.
Cancer: Today is a 9
Groups and organizations are important in your life now. You're coming out of your shyness and sometimes that's difficult. You may have to deal with some things you've been avoiding. Don't worry because you're strong enough. Get tough!
Leo: Today is a 5
A lid has been kept on your enthusiasm. You've been playing to a critical audience. That's about to change. By tomorrow you'll be the star of the show. And you'll be better for the lesson recently learned.
You've had some lucky breaks the past few days.
Don't get over confident though. Expect a quiz tomorrow. You may be asked to prove you know what you're talking about. Go over your notes one more time.
Scorpio: Today is an 8
2
Libra: Today is a 6
Capricorn: Today is a 10
If you can't help everyone, you could hire somebody to help. Think about it tonight and call a few people tomorrow. An argumentative person could be perfect. Don't take no for an answer.
iiii
You may have recently discovered that you enjoy budgeting. Putting those numbers into rows is fun. A task that was once drudgery could become a new game. If this is happening, you're learning how to win. Keep at it!
Sagittarius: Today is a 5
You and your partner need to get together and talk about money. How much do you have and how are you going to spend it? This could be a delicate subject, but don't put it off. Concede a point or two to get the agreement so you can go shopping.
Aquarius: Today is a 6
You're still lucky, but don't procrastinate. Make a decision on what you've been contemplating over the past few days. You'll have to get back to work tomorrow so don't wait any longer. Don't spend too much either.
LAWRENCE COUNTY
A lot of activity is going on at home. If you have recently moved, you should be settled by now. You'll have more time for romance and games tomorrow and the next day. Do whatever needs to be done to get things right now.
Pisces: Today is a 10
Focus on the subject you're learning — this is the way to make your dreams come true. Your friends may want you to come out and play, but turn them down. Right now the most important thing for you to do is practice, practice, practice!

Guest choreographers work with KU dancers in diverse performances
By Cassie Holman Special to the Kansan
Naomi Carson, St. Louis junior, is performing in Brooks' dance Open. She worked with Brooks for about eight days, along with the other dancers.
"He really challenged us and got us to work hard," Carson said. "He inspired me to have a stronger work ethic and more discipline."
PISHA
Tonight's University Dance Company performance should appeal to many different tastes and preferences, with styles ranging from classical ballet to traditional modern to contemporary jazz.
The performance, 8 p.m. at the Lied Center, will feature dances by two guest choreographers — Brian Brooks from Donald Byrd/The Group and Krystyna Jurkowski-Hilding, a former dancer with the Joffrey Ballet.
Brooks trained at the Dance Theatre of Harlem and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center before performing with the Philadelphia Dance Company, Joseph Holmes and other companies in Chicago. He joined Donald Byrd in 1986.
Carson said Open was about letting go of false fronts and the masks we wear and opening ourselves up to world.
Jurkowski-Hilding choreographed a ballet titled Potpourri, which uses music
Jurkowski-Hilding has been working with the dancers since mid-February.
from the Waldmeister
Overture by Johann Strauss.
Joan Stone, director of the dance department, also choreographed a dance for the program, titled The Yellow Wallpaper, in which Rebekah Moses, Great Bend junior, will be performing.
Laura Martin, Wichita junior and president of the company, will be performing in *potourri*. Martin described it as a classical ballet piece with several individual variations.
Moses said the dance is about the tension women experienced at the turn of the century. She said it was a very interesting portrayal of the struggle between madness and sanity one woman experienced while trying to break free of the mold society had put her in.
"She coached us in pointe technique, the different ways of maneuvering steps on pointe and making it easier for us." Martin said.
This semester's program is unpredictable, Carson said.
"There is a lot of variety. If you don't like one piece, you may like another." she said.
The program also runs 8 p.m. tomorrow night at the Lied Center. Tickets, $5 for students and $7 for the public, are on sale at the Lied Center, Murphy Hall and SUA box offices.
Kansas museum hopes salt will attract visitors
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Kansas already boasts such oddities as the world's largest ball of twine and the Greyhound Hall of Fame. Add to that list a museum devoted to salt.
Jay Smith, executive director of the Reno County Museum, said Tuesday the project will take tourists deep below ground into salt reserves discovered in 1887.
Fundraising efforts already have begun, and the museum is accepting contributions with the hope of opening in September 2004.
Courtesy could make traffic stops enjoyable
O
Police have no cash to offer for this month-long safety stakeout but say they hope motorists will be encouraged to drive safely.
"Everyone likes a little pat on the back," said traffic Sgt. Dennis Tarsook.
"We're not giving them anything, just saying we caught them being courteous, and we appreciate it."

BEVERLY, Mass. — Sometimes getting pulled over by the cops is a good thing.

given the same words of encouragement — after being handed a $100 fine.
Too much tea lands man in court for DUI
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — Kava drinkers, beware. You may need a designated driver.
Tauful Plutau learned that the hard way after hitting the road following a meeting with friends in which he drank eight to 10 cups of kava tea.
Plutau pleaded not guilty Tuesday in San Matee County Municipal Court in what is thought to be the state's first DUI prosecution for driving under the influence of kava.
The drink, used ceremoniously in Plutaut's native Tonga, is made from a pepper plant called kava-kava. It is known for its anti-anxiety effects.
"He was drinking tea, but he was not guilty for having reduced capacity to drive," said Plutau's lawyer, Scott Ennis "It's like drinking a double capuccino." Prosecutor Rebacle Holt said the state's drunk driving law covers driving under the influence of any substance that impairs muscles, the central nervous system or the brain so that a person cannot operate a vehicle safely.
WILTON, N.D. — The Rev. Paul Schauer says he's not afraid to trv some
Reverend shaves head to reward attendance
thing different to bring people to church
— even if it means losing a little hair.
Schauer told Sunne Lutheran Church members that if attendance averaged 180 people through the five Sundays in April, he would get a haircut after the final service.
Last Sunday's attendance: 189. Pastor Schauer's hair: Buzzed.
"I'm one of those guys who will try weird things to increase worship attendance," Schauer said Monday.
Schauer said he settled on an average of 180 people because it's about half of the church membership. The rural church usually draws about 110 people each Sunday.
On this day, all 189 people stayed in their seats to see the clippers in action.
Prisons make census easier for small town
SUSANVILLE, Calif. — While some California cities are struggling to get accurate census counts, Susanville city administrator J. Newell Howell says his town doesn't have much of a problem.
"We joke that we have the largest gated community in the state," said Howell.
That's because Susanville is home to two prisons.
Small communities like Susanville and lone already have a big share of their populations accounted for because the census counts inmates as residents of the town where they are incarcerated.
In California, each prisoner nets the
city about $70 annually in state tax allocations that are paid on a per-resident basis.
That means lone — where 4,000 of the town's 7,200 residents are housed in the Mule Creek State Prison and the Preston Youth Authority — will get about $300,000 toward a city budget of just $1.7 million.
"Well, if there weren't some advantage to having a prison, what community would want one?" Linda Gage, chief demographer for the California Department of Finance, said last week.
BLOOMFELD, Ind. — It's a dirty job,
but it has its rewards.
Incentive program to promote trash pickup
In an effort to encourage people to pick up roadside trash, the Greene County Solid Waste Management District has hidden more than 200 special prize capsules along county roads.
Each bottle — green, with an orange lid — contains a number that corresponds to a prize. Greene County businesses donated prizes ranging from a $300 electric grill and $200 worth of bowling passes.
One Greene County attorney is even offering to prepare a couple's will as one of the prizes.
According to Debbie Haseman, education coordinator for the solid waste district, there are "thousands of dollars in cash and prizes scattered out there." She said the prize concept seemed like a good way to encourage roadside trash pickup.

Cypress Hill
Snout & Bones
Cypress Hill Skull & Bones
Buy it
No bones about it — the three members of Cypress Hill are kings of the stoned age. But on this, the trio's fifth album, DJ Muggs and vocalists B-Real and Sen Dog put down the bongs and take their distinct rap style to a new level.
Cypress Hill solidified its intensely loyal fan base with 1993's Black Sunday, which featured the smash hit "Insane in the Brain." The follow-up, 1995's Temples of Boom, was considerably darker, a theme that carried over to 1998's IV. The evolution continues, but on Skull & Bones, the group has toned down the pro-pot rhetoric and cranked up the violent imagery of inner-city street life.
Two factors set apart this effort from the group's other releases — it's a two-disc set, and the second disc sees the band replacing its background beats with real drums and crushing guitar riffs. The gimmick even plays into the group's first single, which has two versions: "(Rap) Superstar" and "(Rock) Superstar."
Skull, the rap disc, is considerably less bass-driven than previous Cypress Hill albums. The synthesizers are more evident than before, but that doesn't take away from deliciously funky tracks such as "Highlife" and "Certified Bomb." What's more surprising is that nasal vocalist B-Real is very, very outdone by his colleague Sen Dog, who shows more lyrical punch than in any previous Cypress Hill release.
Bones, the rock disc, sees the band entering new territory. Unfortunately, heavy metal interferes with the band's style, resulting in less-than-innovative tracks such as "Get Out of My Head." ("Rock") Superstar," however, rounds out the second disc nicely.
This is not the same group that made you act a little loco in 1993. Nonetheless, Skull & Bones still makes for some high times.

THE STORYSHOT
[longstoryshot]
Harlem-born poet and English teacher Sekou Sundiata communicates his messages with immediacy and grace on his latest release A Long Story Short. Sundiata speaks his rhymes over hiphop, funk rhythms, but the formula for this album is not as simple as that. Vocal harmonies, mandolin, bass and bouzouki also accompany his poetry, providing a very rich delivery.
A Long Story Short

- Melineh Kurdian
Fortunately for our listening ears, Righteous Babe Records saved this album from getting lost in the corporate shuffle. Ani Difranco, performer and founder of this label, has said that Sundiata was one of her greatest teachers of poetry. The similarities are evident as Sundiata's flow meanders through subjects such as the homecoming of Nelson Mandela and the jazz of John Coltrane and Charlie Parker. His voice, soft, urgent and powerful, is captivating as he claims that "People be droppin' revolution/ Like it was a pickup line/ You wouldn't use that word/ If you knew what it meant" on the track "Droppin' Revolution."
A sense of history and a pure, souful rhythm are well-balanced on A Long Story Short, an album for lovers of poetry and the art of sublime rhyme.

If you are not familiar with Led Zeppelin and are looking for supreme musical satisfaction, go immediately to the music store of your choice and buy one of the Zepplin albums. Buy any of them. Heck, buy this one. Most anything you choose will be fresh blues-rock beauty to your ears.
— Melineh Kurdian
These pioneers of the heavy metal band mastered the art of writing songs that are just as mysterious as they are sexually explosive. The Latter Days, Volume Two of the Best of Led Zeppelin, is an appropriate panorama of their work, highlighting lesser and more well-known Zeppelin classics. Some might find such a two-volume set unnecessary being that the 4-disc box set released in 1990 was so complete. But it can also be said that any Zeppelin is good Zeppelin, and their compositions are just as vital now as they were more than twenty years ago.
Their true beauty is that they can encompass so many styles but never lose their musical focus. "Kashmir" has a middle eastern flavor with sultry strings and incessant percussion that still makes sense when set along side the rocking and rolling of "Nobody's Fault But Mine." Jimmy Page is easily one of the finest, most articulate guitarists that has ever lived. Furthermore, Robert
Plant plays the ideal front man with sass and a uniquely powerful voice. Led Zeppelin blends interpretations of blues, reggae and rock with inspired mysticism (Plant is an avid fan of Tolkien novels such as The Hobbit).
Led Zeppelin has made an indelible mark upon the music world. All you have to do is listen for a few minutes to know why.
Dilated Peoples
ILATED PEOPLE
THE PLATFORM FOR ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The Platform
Buy it
The Platform is the latest release from the L.A.-based rap trio Dilated Peoples. Going back to the basics of MCfng, the boys rap with a relaxed style that is easy to listen to.
The turntable lays down clean hip-hop beats and samples that do the trick, but are in no way ornate. "Drum patterns are primitive/ Evidence the derivative/ Of what the late eighties and nineties had to give," Iriscience admits in "The Last Line of Defense." So, that leaves the words to speak for themselves, and they do just that.
"Years in the Making" is a sort of autobiography, a testament of confidence without being arrogant. "I don't need jewels to shine/ Just bring the flow/ Besides I keep losin' all my rings at shows," one of them states, turning away from mainstream glitz and glamour. There's no hiding behind obscene, pointless stories.
Dilated Peoples makes no assumptions of absurd grandeur, but chooses rather to create rhymes that represent dignity and cleverness. While it seems to never find a true line of lyrical focus, The Platform is still a solid hip-hop album that should get a lot of attention when it is released May 23.

John Oszajca From There To Here
Buy it
On this appealing debut disk, new face John Oszajca crafts 11 tracks blending a folkish pop sensibility with jangly guitars and samples.
The rocker-with-samples thing isn't new — Beck was doing it years ago — but Oszajca's songs are strong enough to survive the trendy production. "Where's Bob Dylan When You Need Him," (besides being a great title) is a witty tune, complete with Wyclef Jean cameo and Dylan sample.
"It Ain't So Bad" is wrapped up in swirling strings and "Bissexual Chick" is funny in a chauvinistic way. Most of the songs are memorable, and Oszajca's voice, while not exactly subtle, is tuneful and appropriate.
The singer obviously has a sly sense of humor, which unfortunately isn't used
JOHN OSZAK
FROM

TO
HERE
that often. Producers Nic Jodoin and Chris Johnson obviously preferred the serious singer-songwriter approach. The result is an album that — while memorable and distinctive — isn't quite a single thought.
Oszajca has talent to spare, however, and From There to Here is entirely worth the hearing. Here's hoping the next album will be even better.

BOONDOCK
The Boondock Saints Release the Hounds
Burn it
In the mood for absolutely disposable, trite and awful hard rock? Then try the Boondock Saints, a new band led by independent filmmaker Troy Duffy.
To say this album has nothing to offer the discerning listener is to praise it far more than it deserves. Duffy's upcoming film starring Willem Dafoe also is called The Boondock Saints, raising the possibility this album is some sort of ghastly marketing plov.
To be fair, Release the Hounds is impeccably put together as a recording, and co-produced by the legendary Steely Dan guitarist Jeffrey "Skunk" Baxter. The guitars roar when they're supposed to, the vocals blend well, and the band harmonizes neatly. Talent is present.
But surface touches can't disguise an album without discernible inspiration, originality or heart. The hardest of rock sits uneasily by acoustic ballads. The slow songs — "Three Stones" in particular — are the only ones to show the barest trace of creative impulse. But they are so out of place that this reviewer kept expecting an announcer to break in and intone: "Every rocker has his soft side."
The album's asinine lyrics are the final straw. One example will suffice. The song "Metal Soul" features these poetic lines: "I heard your daddy raped you/ I heard your mom forsaken you/ You got problems, big problems."
Please — make it stop.

PRESIDENTE ROMANA
Special effects bring the glory of Ancient Rome to the silver screen in Gladiator. Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix star in the story of a gladiator's vengeance upon an evil emperor. Contributed Art
Gladiator no thumbs up, but effects are spectacular
By Todd Halstead
Kansan movie critic
Anybody looking for a mindless revenge flick will enjoy director Ridley Scott's (Alien, Blade Runner) new movie, Gladiator. Anybody looking for an epic Roman tale similar to Sparticus will be sorely disappointed.
Gladiator tells the story of Maximus (Russell Crowe), a Roman general. We meet him as he prepares for battle against a barbarian hoard.
GLADIATOR
The arrival of aliling emperor Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris), alters the course of events. After the battle, the emperor tells Maximus that he fears the glory of Rome will falter if another emperor is appointed after his death. His plan instead is to make Maximus Lord Protector until the Republic is restored.
movies
Acting: A-
Writing: B
Sound: A
Cinematography: B
Overall: B
When Aurelius' shady son and heir, Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix), learns of this plan, he smothers his father and orders the execution of Maximus.
Maximus escapes the execution and ends up in the slave trade where he is purchased as a gladiator. The remainder of the film follows his rise through the ranks of gladiators and his plot of revenge against Commodus.
Scott delivers a beautiful computer-imaged world that gives us a glimpse of how majestic ancient Rome must have been. But he remains loyal to the actors and allows them to carry the film instead of relying on the
special effects. The filmmaking is often breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the battle scenes are disappointing. The visuals during the battle are a jumbled mess and the quick cuts remove viewers from the scene emotionally.
This technique is carried into the gladiator battles, although there are various gladiator scenes that include some attention-getting decapitations.
Gladiator could have been a great film if it had taken a slightly different approach to filming and plot development. That's not to say it isn't an enjoyable endeavor. Many people were cheering by the film's end, but it doesn't live up to expectations.
There are insights into political intrigue and assassination plots, but they are largely underdeveloped. But Phoenix delivers a superb performance as Commodus.

Designer enhances art exhibits
Display cases, banners boost museum shows
By Paula Spreitzer
By Paula Spreitzer Special to the Kansan
As exhibition designer, Klocke is a man behind the scenes. He's usually found on the second floor in his office or in the woodshop outside his door.
There, he might be designing and screen-printing the large banners that hang outside the museum to greet people. Or he might be cutting wood and Plexiglas to create display cases for the museum's latest exhibits.
"He's really changed the way our banners look," Goddard said. "They tend to be much more graphic than
typographic. They're really changing, so we're happy about that."
Case in point the brightly colored banner for Matisse's Jazz exhibit.
But banners aren't the only thing that Klocke creates.
He also works with exhibit curators to design fixtures that will best display the artwork.
"He's a very energetic and keen-minded colleague who likes to come in and see what's going on in the museum." Goddard said.
Working together on the Matisse's Jazz prints exhibit, Goddard and Klocke were faced with some unique challenges.
"That was an interesting situation because we didn't have the work beforehand," Goddard said. "So Richard and I had to be really sure of the dimensions of the pieces so we could create display cases before the work got here."
By the time couriers delivered the work, it was placed directly into the cases Klocke made out of wood bases with Plexiglas cases on top to protect the artwork and allow visitors to
And allowing viewing is Klocke's favorite part of creating the boxes.
view it more easily.
"The fulfilling part is that you're making something look good that can be used to educate people," he said.
Goddard said Klocke is important to the museum because he frames the exhibits in a way that attracts visitors without distracting them.
Klocke's own passion for art gives him an edge for creating. He has a studio at his home where he trains his own art savvy.
"The things I do are kind of a cross between sculpture and painting," he said.
Klocke earned his master's degree in fine arts at the Chicago Art Institute, and he most recently worked as exhibit director at the Kansas State Historical Society.
When the opportunity arose to come to the University of Kansas last June, he jumped at it because it allowed him to deal with art again.

Art in the Park to display variety of local art
By Michael Sudhalter
Special to the Kansan
A spring tradition that allows artists to show off their works will return to South Park, 11th and Massachusetts streets, on Sunday.
Art in the Park will feature 87 artists with styles including sculpture, pottery, glass art and metal. The annual festival dates back to 1961
Preston Ransone, publicity chairman for the Lawrence Art Guild, which sponsors the event, said he expected 10,000 people to attend the event.
Art Festival."
“Art in the Park captures the spirit of springtime. It is a great combination of art and people,” said Ransone. “I would call the Pops
Pat Ransone, Lawrence Art Guild treasurer, is responsible for selecting the artists who participate in the festival. Ransone selected 87 artists out of about 100 applicants.
"The criteria of Art in the Park is that the art must be original fine art, and if there is any reproduction, it must be identified," said Pat Ransone.
There is an award for $300 for the best piece of art at the show as well as first and second place prizes in the two-dimensional and three-dimensional art categories.
Pat Ransone said musical bands will also play at the festival.
landscape paintings this year. While Copt shows most of his work in the galleries in Topeka, Manhattan and Lawrence, he said he thought that the festival was a great opportunity to reach a different audience.
"At Art in the Park, I am more likely to come into contact with non-gallery customers and expose more people to my work," Copt said.
Copt, who has all of his paintings displayed on his Web site, said that Art in the Park is the only festival that he attended each year.
Preston Ransone said that he expected more community residents than students to attend because of final exams, but a few KU students and alumni will be there to show off their art.
Barbara Jarvis, a 1997 KU gradu
ate in fine arts and painting, will be at Art in the Park for the third year. Jarvis will display a variety of art, including two-dimensional works, mixed media, pastels and lithographs. Lithographs are prints in which images are treated to retain ink, while non-image areas are treated to repel ink.
"I feel as though I sell my art better when I actually meet the people," Jarvis said.
Jarvis, who has been painting for more than 20 years, is also taking part in a Topeka art festival as well as the Riverfest in Salina.
The festival will run from noon to 5 p.m.
In case of inclement weather, Art in the Park will be at the same time on Sunday, May 14.

Story collection stuns readers with Brief sections, humor
By Clay McCuistion
writer @kansan.com
Kansan wire editor
Brief Interviews with Hideous Men is a gloriously uneven book. Some sections of David Foster Wallace's short story collection feel meticulously worked over, others mere exercises in wordplay. Every now and then, the polish and originality combine in the same section to create a stunning effect.
Wallace, the author of 1996's 1,000-plus page opus Infinite Jest, is relatively restrained in the 23 brief sections that compose his fifth book. He doesn't go on at length. He doesn't pursue the deliberate obscurity many modern literary authors cherish.
Instead, Wallace has fun with words. He doesn't treat the English language as a fragile or delicate flower. He roughs up his sentences, sends them flying, putting together his stories in ways that are unusual and exciting. Wallace is not afraid to fail, and on the-edge performances invigorate both his work and its reader.
"Octet" falls on the carefully crafted side. Unfortunately, this series of pop quizzes arranged to tell little stories degenerates into lengthy existential footnotes and explanations from the author about how he messed up writing the story. These authorial comments are part of the story.
He doesn't treat the English language as a fragile or delicate flower. He roughs up his sentences, sends them flying, putting together his stories in ways that are unusual and exciting.
Wallace has courage. But in this case, the piece dies an agonizing death because of his excessive amendment.
The several short sections spread throughout the work, and titled "Brief Interviews with Hideous Men," are less self-conscious and read as though Wallace dashed them off quickly to give the book some continuity.
The sections tend to be quite funny, but all have the same basic message—the male gender is lying, deceitful and only concerned with sex. Wallace's point is well-taken, but it didn't have to be stated quite so often.
When the polished style and exuberant inspiration come together, however, the volume shines. "Tri-Stan: I Sold Sissee Nar to Ecko" is a hilarious crossbreed of the television industry and Greek myth, complete with gods
Stasis and his wife Codependae. Dave Barry could perhaps match the humor but has nowhere near Wallace's style and lavish imagination.
"Adult World" (the story of a woman's relationship with her oft-absent husband) and "The Depressed Person" are much more serious efforts. Both are extended character studies of troubled women and both are totally compelling.
Wallace is not a subtle writer, and those readers who want to figure out things for themselves would be well-advised to stay away from this book. Everything is explained, often from multiple perspectives and in varying voices (with the occasional hefty dose of medical terminology).
Where the volume shines is in sheer outrageousness and fun. Yes, it's challenging. Yes, it's sophisticated.
But most of all, it's a delight to read.

Libraries, Union to extend hours as students study for final exams
By Erinn R. Barcomb
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As final exams approach, some popular study locations are staying open later.
Anschutz and Watson libraries will have extended hours, and the Kansas Union will stay open 24 hours during much of next week.
Mary Rosenbloom, assistant to the dean of libraries, said Anschutz would be open later than Watson, until 2 a.m. Sunday through Thursday, because of safety factors. Since April 28, Watson has stayed open until 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. It is open until midnight on weeknights.
"I think it's felt that Anschutz is a safer library — that it's more opened," Rosenbloom said. "There aren't so many nooks and crannies."
Rosenbloom said Anschutz provided a study space for students but did not necessarily allow students to do in-depth research at the last minute.
"It will just be the main level, level three," Rosenbloom said. "If you're an English major, your books won't be here. It's only a portion of the collection."
LIBRARY TIMES
Anschutz hours: until May 16
Mondays through
Thursdays until 2 a.m.;.
Fridays 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.
Saturdays 9 a.m. to midnight
Sundays 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.

Kansas Union hours:
May 8-11, open 24 hours;
May 14-16, open 24 hours
May 12-13, open until 11 n.m
Rosenbloom said she was interested to see how well the space would be used.She said that in 1993 and 1994, Anschutz was kept open until 2 a.m., and counts were taken on the number of students using the building.
Rosenbloom said the results showed that the numbers dwindled as the night wore on but that about 50 students were left at closing time.
"It will be interesting to see what happens," Rosenbloom said. "As people hear about it, it may catch on."
Similar to last semester's schedule, the Kansas Union also will have extended hours for studying. Gene Wee, Union reservations coordinator, said the
Union would be open 24 hours Monday through Thursday next week and again May 14-16. During the weekend, the Union will close at 11 p.m.
"Not too many people want to come in on a Saturday night," Wee said.
Some kind of refreshments, like last year's coffee and donuts, will be provided. Wee said.
Despite last semester's mediocre turnout, Wee said keeping the Union open was a good service to provide students.
"I remember we had a lot of people the very first night," he said. "As you get farther into the exams, fewer people come."
Jessica Sandifer, a Shawnee freshman who works at Java Dive, 10 E. Ninth St., said the coffee shop also was planning to extend its hours next week because of finals. Instead of closing at 11 p.m., it will remain open until midnight.
'Love bug' bites world's computers
'Veryfunny' virus also found last night
By Chris Wristen
writer kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A phony love note is spreading hate to computer servers around the world, but the Academic Computing Service at the University of Kansas may have caught it just in time.
A computer virus started to spread via e-mail yesterday morning and has crippled computers worldwide. The e-mail bears the title "ILOVEYOU" and spreads itself when its "LOVELETTER" attachment is opened. If opened, the virus is sent to all addresses on the recipient's address list. The virus then downloads
itself onto the user's computer and overwrites files with copies of itself.
"This seems to have just shown up first in Asia this morning," said Mickey Waxman, statistical consultant for the ACS, yesterday. "I've seen some fast-moving viruses, and this beats them all."
Last night, at least one copy cat virus, "joke" with the attachment "veryfunny" left national computer network administrators battling a new problem causing similar damage, according to the CNN Web site. Some administrators predicted dozens more copy cats today. They suggested that e-mail users block all e-mails containing attachments.
Bill Pollack, spokesman for the CERT Coordination Center in Pittsburgh, a government-chartered computer security team, said the center was looking into ways the "ILOVEYOU" virus could have spread. The virus may be transferring
VIRUS PROTECTION
Protect yourself from the computer virus
1. Delete all e-mail with "ILOVEYOU" or
"joke" as the subject line.
2. Under no circumstances open (click
on) an e-mail attachment named "LOVE-
LETTER-FOR-YOU" or "veryfunny".

itself through instant messenging services such as ICQ. The "joke" virus is believed to have transferred the same way.
The biggest concern is the speed at which the virus has gone global.
The University may have caught the bug before the KU server was affected, Waxman said. He said he was informed about it at 7:30 a.m. yesterday.
No one at the University could be reached for comment about the copy cat virus.
One of the University computer servers
was shut down to prevent the virus from contaminating the system. The ACS worked on the server last night, but a specific time when the server would be reactivated today was not given.
Student e-mail accounts were not expected to be affected, but faculty and staff accounts were on the disabled server and were not accessible.
The ACS office was installing software to prevent the virus from infiltrating the system.
Cathy Smith, assistant vice chancellor for information services, said the system was shut down as a precaution.

State disputes drugs alcohol take rural route
- STORY BY ERINN R. BARCOMB *
Despite statistics that indicate teen-age drug use is high in rural Kansas, the numbers may not tell the whole story — at least not in one western Kansas town.
Garden City sits in southwestern Kansas, about 335 miles east of Denver and 200 miles west of Wichita. Its teenagers fit some drug use patterns, according to some surveys, but not others.
It makes a great story — kids in rural areas using more drugs and alcohol than their inner-city peers. A headline in the The Washington Post this year read "Small town teens more likely to have used drugs, study finds," and the Chicago Tribune said this year that drugs were moving "From Manhattan to Main Street."

Although drugs have gotten most of the attention, some statistics about the increased use of alcohol are available as well.

Local police to patrol railroad crossings
By Katrina Hull
Kansan staff writer
Optical illusions of speed and distance make crossing railroad tracks doubly dangerous.
Starting Monday, the chances of getting caught illegally crossing railroad tracks will double as well, Union Pacific Railroad officials and local law enforcement announced yesterday.
Lawrence and Douglas County police will be watching railroad crossings extra closely and ticketing drivers who drive around crossing bars or trespass on railroad tracks.
A train often is traveling faster and is closer than it appears. Simpson said.
"For motorists looking down the track, the parallel lines toward the horizon create an illusion of distance." Simpson said. "Plus, with the size of the train, it's often moving faster than motorists think."
In 1999, 62 collisions at railroad crossings resulted in seven deaths and 36 injuries in Kansas. Since 1995, Lawrence has had only four collisions, but two fatal collisions have occurred in the last two months.
Two KU students and one Lawrence man died in car-train collisions at Union Pacific railroads crossings.
"These crossing collisions can be prevented if people simply follow the signs and signals already there." Simpson said.
Union Pacific trains travel through Lawrence at 40
POTENTIAL FINES
Crossing train tracks that the bars are down is a $35 fine with $22.50 in court costs.
Railroad crossing and trespassing fines
■ Trespassing on railroad tracks, which includes crossing tracks anywhere other than marked, is criminal trespassing and carries a $500 fine and up to six months in jail.

Crossing train tracks when the bars are down is a $60 fine with $46 in court costs.
Trespassing on railroad tracks does not have a set fine but requires a mandatory appearance in court.

miles per hour, crossing city streets at seven intersections all of them equipped with crossbars. Outside of town, the trains travel at 70 miles per hour
At 40 miles per hour, a train needs about one mile to stop. But at 70 miles per hour, it takes about two miles for a train to stop.
Richard Steiner, Union Pacific manager of operating practices, said that when an engineer saw a vehicle or person on the tracks, stopping in time usually was out of the question.
"It's more of a David and Goliath thing, in favor of Goliath." Steiner said.

Sorority raises awareness about Cinco de Mayo
Members of Sigma Lambda Gamma, a historically Latina sorority, hope to raise awareness about Cinco de Mavo today.
Erica Andrade, sorority member and Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, said people often thought Cincio de Mayo was Mexican Independence Day. Instead, it marks the Mexican victory against the French in the La Batallade Puebla War.
Sorority members will hand out information about the holiday from noon to 1 p.m. today at Wescoe Beach. There also will be a party at 6:30 p.m. at the Jayhawker Towers Courtyard. Free traditional sweet bread will be served.

"There were a number of issues that we dealt with that were of great importance," she said. "Some have had action taken on them, others will carry over to next year; but on the whole, we made good progress."
Hawkins singled out several issues Council dealt with this year as ones of importance. Among them were a resolution passed by Council and sent to the Kansas Board of Education stating opposition to the board's teaching of evolution, a resolution sent to the Board of Regents calling for the extension of the board's discrimination policy to include sexual orientation and the revised course repetition policy.
Student issued citation after parking incident
A parking employee got a face full of expectoration yesterday.
According to a police report, the KU parking department towed the vehicle belonging to the date of a KU student about midnight from L10 100 near 14th and Ohio streets. Steven McDermott, Lawrence senior, took offense and called out to two parking employees at the scene — Justin Mullins, Valley Center freshman, and Robert Carl, Prairie Village sophomore
There was a "verbal exchange" between the three, but words weren't the only thing that flew — McDermott admitted to spitting into Mullins' face. He received a citation for battery.
His first court appearance is scheduled for May 17.

STATE
Members of the University of Kansas community who wish to help victims of the tornado that struck Parsons on April 20 can do so in several ways.
Irene Grote, assistant research professor at the Schiefelbusch Institute for Lifespan Studies, set up a box to receive donations of canned food at 4001 Dole. She also is accepting monetary and furniture donations for the victims at the same location.
Terri Pollmiller, city manager of Parsons, said people who wished to assist with the rebuilding efforts could contact the city manager's office in Parsons or the Lawrence chapters of the Salvation Army or the American Red Cross.
No deaths or injuries were reported, but many residents were left without homes, and dozens of buildings were damaged.

Lewis revives traditional 'Lew-wow!' barbecue

Kansas staff writer
By Jessie Meyer
Lewis Hall is going Hawaii.
The Lewis Hall government is sponsoring an end-of-the-year "Lew-wow!" to give students a chance to break away from studying and to enjoy the spring weather.
"It's a big barbecue and picnic and a time to relax before finals," said Katie Mitchell, Lewis Hall president. "It's a full meal and it's free. We have a real roasted pig and we even got garden burgers."
The Hawaiian barbecue, which will be complete with disc jockey, limbo contest, door prizes, water balloons and other events, will be from 5 to 8 p.m. tomorrow on the front lawn near Lewis. Everyone is invited, and all of the events are free.
"I really hope the residents enjoy it," Mitchell said. "I hope people take advantage of it because we are doing it all for them."
Tim Reed, Lewis intramural chairman, said that the luau was a Lewis tradition but one that had been set aside during the recent renovation.
"We're really wanting to re-release the luau," Reed said. "It should be a really good time."
The money used to finance the event came from the Lewis government funds and from

President of Lewis Hall's government
the Association of University Residence Halls, Mitchell said.
"Our budget is $3,900," Mitchell said. "But we're definitely coming in under budget. We'll probably spend around $3,000."
Reed said that each residence hall was allotted the same amount of money each semester and that Lewis had saved all year for this blowout event.
He said the money was well spent.
"We've been saving up to make sure it goes really well," Reed said. "We wanted to have a really good time and have a bunch of people come out. We wanted to do it right."
Mitchell said the event would take place rain or shine. If it rains, the luau will be moved inside Lewis.
"There is enough room inside to pull it off," Mitchell said. "But it's all pulling together, so let's hope for shine."

Police identify suspect in hit-and-run
Cops trace vehicle, run laboratory tests during investigation
By Mindie Miller
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Lawrence police have identified a vehicle and a suspect who they believe was involved in a hit-and-run April 28. Sat., George Wheeler, 67th St.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence
Police Department said police had interviewed the suspect but had not made an arrest. Police impounded the suspect's vehicle for forensic examination.
"We're not going to arrest anybody until we get information back from the crime lab," he said. "We've collected evidence from the vehicle and will send it in with evidence from the scene, and we'll try to get a match."
John J. Lowe, a 38-year-old Lawrence transient, died when a vehicle struck him in an alley near the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St., and dragged his body almost 200 feet. Police
found Lowe's body at about 2:30 a.m. in the gutter where an east-west alley meets Mississippi
A blood trail indicated that the vehicle continued north on Mississippi.
Wheeler said police searched the area, looked for witnesses and handed out more than 300 filers requesting information.
According to a press release, some investigators determined the approximate vehicle size and style from physical evidence at the scene, including wheel base measurements and paint fragments. They looked at more than 50 vehicles that matched the description
before they found the susnect vehicle.
Police had asked the public for help through Crime Stoppers, which offers a cash award of up to $1,000 for tips that lead to an arrest. But Wheeler said none of the calls had led them to the suspect.
"We did get a Crime Stoppers tip that meets with this information, but it didn't lead directly to this," he said.
Information from the investigation will not be turned over to the Douglas County district attorney's office until the forensic examination is complete and laboratory tests are conducted, Wheeler said.
Pre-Law Society drops chapter membership
By Katring Hull
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Pre-Law Society is its losing its Greek letters, Phi Alpha Delta, and saving its members' money at the same time.
When the Phi Alpha Delta International Chapter raised its one-time initiation fee from $50 to $70 in January, the KU chapter decided to reconsider its chapter membership in the law fraternity, said Natalie Vorak, president of Pre-Law Society.
"They don't give us $70 worth of services, and $70 is very intimidating when recruiting new members," said Vorak, a Wichita sophomore. "There's not going to be a change in the organization. We still will provide information, speakers and the social aspect. The only thing different is the name."
However, changing its name to Pre-Law Society extracted a less than pleasant reaction from the international chapter
in the form of a letter.
"I thought the letter was very threaten ing," Vorak said.
Frank Patek, Phi Alpha Delta executive director, sent a letter dated April 12 to all members of the KU chapter and sent carbon copies of the letter to the chancellor, provost and vice chancellor.
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, said that the letter did not violate any KU policies.
"It was rather unusual and inappropriate," he said.
The letter stated in the second paragraph that the change would have little effect on members who already paid dues. But, after listing off the benefits of belonging to Phi Alpha Delta, the tone of the letter changed and threatened expulsion.
"By willingly dissolving your chapter and association with Phi Alpha Delta Law Fraternity you have violated your membership oath," Patek wrote. "As
such, unless we hear back from a representative of your chapter by May 1, all of your names will be submitted to the International Executive Board for expulsion from this fraternity."
Patek said in a phone interview that the membership of past members, or "anybody not a part of this," would not be affected. He said that he would not comment any further about the membership status of current members because membership was a private issue.
Vorak said that Michael Layish, pre-law adviser, still was in the process of negotiating the expulsion and membership status of current, due-paying members. Layish was out of town and could not be reached for comment. Patek did not mention any negotiations.
"We fully intend to disaffiliate with the KU chapter," Patek said. "That was their choice on behalf of the chapter."
Financially, the choice saves new KU members $40 and keeps more money in
the KU chapter. Vorak said next year's initiation fee would be $40, and that all would stay at the University.
In previous years, new members paid $60, of which $50 went to the international chapter and only $10 stayed at the University. With the January increase, members would have paid $80 including $10 for the KU chapter.
Not belonging to the international chapter means little more than returning all Phi Alpha Delta materials, including the chapter gavel, banner and any manuals. KU members also will not be allowed to attend the national conference, which Vorak said no one had attended in the recent years anyway.
Vorak said that no KU members were opposed to dropping the Phi Alpha Delta when the decision was made at a February meeting.
"I don't think that most students care about the name," Vorak said. "But they do care care about the cost."
Students, parents work through news of homosexuality
By Kimberly Thompsor Special to the Kansas
Matthew Skinta, Andover junior, knew he was gay in elementary school, but he did not tell his mother. He kept putting it off until the "right" moment, which did not come until last Easter.
"I told her, 'Well, Mom, I am gay,' he said. "We laughed about it. She said that it had crossed her mind before."
thing was to take a straightforward approach.
Many students come to college knowing they are gay, while some students figure it out later. Not all students who know they're gay choose to tell their parents right away.
Skinta said that if a student decided to come out to his or her parents, the most important
"You have to realize that if your parents ask questions, they're asking because they are ignorant when it comes to sexual orientation," he said.
"Answer honestly. Realize that they're parents expressing concern and showing love."
After Easter, Skinta's mother told his younger brother, who took the news well. His older brother, whom Skinta described as a "butch marine," was not as understanding — they still never have talked about it.
Skinta decided not to tell his parents in high school because he was financially dependent on them and didn't know how they would react.

Administrator accepts post in California

James Kitchen, associate vice chancellor and dean of students, will leave the University of Kansas in July to become the vice president of student affairs at San Diego State University.
Todd Cohen, assistant director of University Relations, said Ambler would appoint someone within the University.
Kitchen could not be reached for comment.
As for his permanent replacement, Cohen said the University probably would not select one until the end of Spring 2001 or the beginning of Fall 2001.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, said he would appoint an interim leader to oversee the department of student life by the end of next week.
"They'll do a national search starting in the fall," he said. "The search will probably take several months."
Ambler said the search would not begin until the fall because so many people in the field were gone during the summer, including KU student leaders.
"We certainly would want to have it at a time that they are here," he said.
According to press releases from San Diego State and Kansas, Kitchen will be one of five vice presidents and a member of the president's cabinet.
Ambler said he was delighted that Kitchen had the opportunity.
"He is a super student affairs professional, and San Diego State is an outstanding university," he said. "I will miss his service here, and I am very appreciative of his many contributions to KU."
Sara Muller Fraunces, associate vice president of marketing and communications at San Diego State, said Kitchen was interviewed along with five other finalists and that he would begin work there in mid-July.
Rick Bay, athletics director at San Diego State and chair of the selection committee, said the committee selected Kitchen because he was articulate and collaborative and had proven himself as an advocate of students.
"Dr. Kitchen is the only person to whom the job was offered," he said. "He was an extremely popular choice."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said Kitchen would be missed.
Kitchen started at the University in 1994 as dean of student life and was promoted to associate vice chancellor and dean of students in 1997 when the division of student affairs was reorganized.
"He's been a very good dean of students," he said. "He's getting a very fine promotion, and all we can do is wish him well."
Before that, he was associate dean of students and director of the student development center at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas.

Self-interest is department's only guide
P lious pronouncements from Athletics Department officials about their support for the female soccer player who reported she was sexually battered by two Kansas football players are nothing more than public relations attempts to rescue themselves from their own callousness and stupidity.
The young woman who was the victim of the attack is a student in one of my classes and has discussed her situation with me at length. In my view, how the Athletics Department handled the attack on her had more to do with the power structure in Kansas athletics than with human dignity and simple justice.
Power sports like basketball and football get the money and attention.
The others — soccer, swimming, baseball, golf, etc. — get the leftovers. Men's sports get the cash and spotlight; women's sports get only what federal law requires.
Is it a coincidence that these factors converged in this unhappy situation and that athletics officials seemed more concerned with protecting two varsity football players from the consequences of their criminal acts than they were
with protecting a female soccer player who was their victim?
Contrary to what football coach Terry Allen said in his written statement, the young woman said he made it abundantly clear in his face to-face meeting with her that he did not want her to report the attack to police, that doing so could get "ugly."
Contrary to the concern he expressed in his written statement, athletics director Bob Frederick did not report the incident to police as the victim said he promised her he

would do after their face-to-face meeting
Contrary to what soccer coach Mark Francis said in his statement about encouraging the young woman to report the attack to police, she said her coach suggested she first should report it to Coach Allen.
Now, why do you suppose a coach for a
women's team in a minor sport might suggest his player first should visit the rather large and luxurious office of one of the two highest paid officials in the KU Athletics Department?
Is the office of a football coach the logical place to report a sexual battery and seek justice?
Well, in this situation, the justice dispensed by this disciplinarian and self-appointed judge was making his two naughty boys run the stairs at Memorial Stadium. If Coach Allen has a daughter, would he be satisfied if someone who sexually attacked her had to run a few sprints to pay for his crime?
Because it was in his own self-interest to protect two players on his team, Coach Allen had a conflict of interest and should not have been consulted about how to handle a serious sexual battery allegation against them.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, told me that the proper procedure to handle a sexual battery alleged by one KU student against another is to instruct the victim how to report the crime to police and refer the individual to rape crisis support groups and the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. It seems simple
enough — think first about justice and human dignity.
In my opinion, the Athletics Department thought first about consulting the coach of the two accused, second about keeping the victim from going to the police and third about keeping the bad news out of the newspaper.
Who was the advocate within the Athletics Department for this young woman? Her parents told me in an email message that they were very disappointed by the lack of support for their daughter within the Athletics Department after she was attacked.
were they so upset? Consider the details of what happened to their daughter outside a Lawrence bar. Two football players she barely knew, both standing 6 feet 5 inches, one of them 235 pounds and the other 275 pounds, picked up a woman not much taller than 5 feet against her will, placed her on top of a vehicle and mauled her. Mauled? This is how she described the experience in the written statement she gave to police:
"I could feel their hands everywhere on my butt, the inside of my legs and up my crock. They were sticking their hands and fingers up my crock in a
The victim says her academic counselor within the Athletics Department told her that her attackers had since been involved in a similar attack on a second woman outside of another Lawrence bar. She also said that Coach Allen acknowledged that fact in the second of two meetings she with him, and that Athletics Director Frederick indicated in his meeting with her that he was aware of that incident as well.
very violent and brutal way. If I would not have been wearing pants, their fingers would have been inside of me. They did not only grab me, they also spanked me. And while they were doing these awful and degrading things, they were laughing and saying, "You like that, huh. I hear you like this kind of stuff." Is running the stairs an appropriate punishment for that conduct?
Did they run the stairs again? If so, these two young rapists-in-training will be in top condition when the football season opens next fall. But should they be representing us and wearing uniforms that say University of Kansas?

'Family atmosphere' not getting job done
It's been a shameful year for the KU Athletics Department. In a normal year, idiotic battles with tow-truck drivers and Taco Bell employees would be the worst athletics director Bob Frederick and his staff would have to worry about. But this year, drug connections, DUIs and charges against swimming coach Gary Kempf of mental and physical abuse are enough for a half hour lowlight reel. Punishments for these transgressions have been mild. In fact, instead of being removed, rebuked or even reviewed, Kempf was promoted.
Unfortunately, it appears that those incidents of bureaucratic incompetence have been trumped. A member of the women's soccer team has alleged that two scholarship football players sexually battered her in a bar parking lot. As she kicked and screamed, one of the two 200-and some pound players lifted her on to the hood of a truck and pinned her down. Despite her pleas for them to stop, they held her

while they laughed, spanked and groped her. It was certainly a shameful event, but even more shameful was the Athletics Department's reaction to her complaints.
The student said that she told her coach, Mark Francis, about the incident, who suggested that they meet with football coach Terry Allen. Why Francis didn't advise her to get counseling or to immediately go to the police is unclear. It's probably a symptom of the KU Athletics' good ol' boy network, which tries to conceal behavior like this to avoid the bad press.
According to University Relations Director Lynn Bretz, the Athletics Department has a "family atmosphere." That's right, and family doesn't let family go to prison for sexual assault. Families conceal their problems so that the neighbors don't suspect anything.
Allen said yesterday that when he and the student met, he did not advise her against going to the police. Apparently though, whatever he did tell the soccer player convinced her that he would take care of the matter. He obviously did not. He made them run more than the other players.
in late April, Bob Kincaid, assistant director of student-athlete life, told the soccer player about the punishment received by the two football play
ers. According to the soccer player, Kincaid then said, "What kind of punishment did you want them to have? What would make you feel better?"
That's insulting. I can't speak for the student, but it's unlikely that any punishment dealt to these players would make her "feel better." It's not about vengeance; it's about ensuring that these players never do this sort of thing again. It's a lesson only the legal system should teach. Even then, no penalty can replace the dignity this young woman lost on the hood of a pickup truck at the hands of two drunk football players.
Running stairs is a punishment for showing up late to practice or mouthing off to a coach, not a punishment for violating a female student. That should require jail time. Allen said that if any "football student-athlete" were convicted of any crime stemming from this matter, he would be kicked off the team. This is confusing. If Allen already has punished these two players, reportedly by making them run at practice, isn't that a signal that he thinks they are guilty? Why wait then? At minimum, they should be suspended from the team until the matter is cleared. At maximum, they should be removed from the team, have their scholarships revoked and possibly be expelled from the University of Kansas. This may seem harsh, but because a second woman has complained that these two victimized her similarly, it's clear that they represent a threat to campus safety.
campus safety. The timing of this matter is unfortunate - because these types of things have a way of disappearing during the summer. There won't be as much pressure for the department to take action, and if it waits long enough, it might all go away. That can't happen. There needs to be an investigation. Punishments are required. The actions of Francis, Allen and Kincaid all should be reviewed by someone outside the Athletics Department.
Department.
It's clear that problems within the Athletics Department are slowly, but surely, damaging the reputation of the whole University. It must stop.
If these incidents are dismissed continually, the problems only are going to get worse.
I would urge the Chancellor, who thus far has remained silent in all athletics matters, to get involved and do whatever it takes to solve it. He and many others are working too hard to improve the national reputation of this University to let these events defile its good name.

The recent allegations of sexual assault strike right at the problem in the KU Athletics Department. If the department tried to cover up this scandal, it raises the question of what else it has silenced.
As a student at the University of Kansas, the Jayhawk Tower D where most of the football players are housed is called the "Date Rape Tower" or "Danger Tower." However, throughout this year, I have seen other atrocities by the department, including the controversy with the Swimming Coach Gary Kempf. He, who had years of allegations of abuse, was promoted to an administrative position in the Athletics Department.
Feedback
KU Athletics need reform
Department there.
The department is a good ol' boy club and it finally has gotten itself into a heap of trouble. The department believes it is fooling everyone, but the cover slowly is coming off and its true colors are showing. The NCAA and the Big 12 governing bodies should investigate and the students themselves should tell the University that it is time for some change. The days of Bobby Knight are finished. KU Athletics Department; Welcome to the new millennium.
Sexual assault is devastating to its victims and leaves wounds that never fully heal. The Athletics Department immediately should have suspended the players, launched a full-scale investigation of its own and thrown their full support behind the victim and her desire to go to the police. By punishing the players, Allen has already established their guilt. By encouraging the victim to refrain from reporting the incident to the police, Allen has created a lapse that seriously will damage her case.
For the staff members in the Athletics Department to assert to a victim of sexual assault that justice is better served by not contacting the police reflects an offensive "boys will be boys" attitude. Sexual assault is a serious crime and should be treated as such; running laps is not the equivalent of a felony charge. It is evident that the Athletics Department is incapable of handling the punishment of sex offenders, which is understandable, considering that it is not the function of its organization. If an employee of the department attempted to dissuade an assault victim from filing charges, disciplinary actions must be taken.
Spoken language cannot adequately convey the outrage I feel in response to the accusations of sexual assault levied against two KU football players. The actions described in the May 3 Kansan sicken me to the core of my soul. Every bit as disgusting as the crime is the course of action recommended to the victim by Soccer Coach Mark Francis and Football Coach Terry Allen's punishment of the players.
This criminal behavior must not go unnoticed and unpunished. I appeal to the student body to educate themselves on this issue and not to allow a horrible crime to fade away during the summer break. Follow this case and make your voices heard. The student body must either voice its outrage about this disgusting crime and its consequent cover-up or passively support a repulsive double standard that destroys women and soils all of us with collective guilt.

Opinions are not subjective
As a long-time afficionado of campus politics and its inherent mischief, I can't stand Seth Hoffman — and I'm sure he feels the same way about me. We spent several years on the opposite side of a bitter political rivalry and we never shared an inch of common ideological ground. We still don't, but if anyone should stand up for Hoffman's right to manage the Kansan opinion page as he sees fit, it should be me.
I was the co-opinion editor of the Kansan during one semester one of those embattled years, and a columnist during the others. I'm sure that Hoffman and his friends of similar political bent hated every word I wrote. I'm sure they derided me for what they perceived as me using the opinion page and the editorial board to further my views. Were they right? You bet.
That was the job, and my views and the experiences that forged them were why I got it. Admittedly, bad press in the Kansan can hurt because everyone on campus reads it. On campus or anywhere else, when your side gets bad ink, the favorite response is to become a journalism critic, to question someone's "journalistic" integrity, ability or even worse, to question their "objectivity."
However, it is the absolute right — and the absolute responsibility — of a Kansan opinion editor to hold strong views about campus activities. To hell with "objectivity" on the opinion page. What's objective about any opinion? And if the editor's views are forged by experience in Student Senate or any other campus institution, be thankful.
Andy Obermueller 1998 KU graduate
If anyone perceives the opinion page's coverage as skewed at any time, there's always a solution; Lend your voice to the debate. Call. Write. Bitch. Cajole. I hated every word of every letter that Hoffman or any of his cronies ever sent me. But I printed nearly every word, every time. That was my job; that was the fight I loved. And I think, as much as I may dislike him, that Hoffman would be glad to do the same.
Celebrate that the opinion page is being run by someone who not only knows about what he is writing, but who also gives a damn. Objectivity is what you attack when you don't like the views of the other side and are unable or unwilling — to do anything about it.
Oh, and this: Never piss off a man who buys ink by the barrel — or who has security cameras on his loading dock.
First, I would like to say that the editorial board refers to him as the "Lord Seth" and we hold candle-lit vigils in his honor at every meeting. As a member of the editorial board, I can testify that all of Ohlens's claims are ludicrous and false. Despite being involved with Delta Force in past years, Hoffman was fair during interviews with this year's Student Senate candidates and he didn't have any influence on the decision of the board. He was simply a moderator, and the endorsements were made only by the editorial board members without any biased input from Hoffman.

I would like to write in response to Eric Ohlsen's May 3 guest column. It was very humorous to me, as he described Seth Hoffman as a manipulative dictator who controlled the thoughts and opinions of the editorial board.
Did Ohlsen stop to think that maybe the editorial board members formed opinions of their own and decided on their own that Delta Force was a better choice than United Students?
Ohlsen also accused Hoffman of dictat
ing opinions written by editorial board members and that members were selected according to their views instead of writing ability. Ohlsen nailed us right on the head! The only way that I or anyone else got on the board was by stating we would endorse Delta Force in Senate elections. We didn't have to fill out an application, go in for an interview or include a portfolio of past work.
All of the members are good writers and have opinions of their own. Hoffman has been fair all semester and has allowed the editorial board members to determine which editorials are run and which side they support.
Eric Borja
Springfield, Mo., freshman and Kansan editorial board member
I would like to respond to Eric Ohlens's May 3 guest column, in which he asserts that the Kansan editorial board did not favor the United Students coalition because Co-Opinion Page editor Seth Hoffman "diated" to them or because they were hired only for their views. As a member of last semester's editorial board who was hired in part by Hoffman, I find this totally inconsistent with my experience. At no time was I told what to say, and I often disagreed with Hoffman. Just as Ohlsen complains of being called a "lackey" without having been contacted, I feel the same regarding his claims about the editorial board.
Paper theft turned off voters
Additionally, I feel that Ohlens should perhaps refresh his memory regarding what an "opinion page" is. By definition, it is not objective. Indeed, one of the things that attracted me to it personally is that it lacks the pretense of being a "final word." I can only see Ohlens's complaints as that of a group so firmly and arrogantly entrenched in their stations in the status quo that to even be questioned is an affront to their essentially authoritarian instincts.
I also wish to congratulate the United Students coalition for its great "margin of victory." In turning so many people off from the democratic process — and thereby keeping people from voting against them and insuring their margin of victory — United Students made sure that people, instead of voting, would be doing other things, like studying. Hundreds of students' GPAs will benefit from their magnanimity.
Erik Goodman Dayton, Ohio, senior
I wish to congratulate Ben Walker, Marlon Marshall and rest of the United Students coalition for only stealing 9,000 copies of The University Daily Kansan. They were generous enough to leave more than 2,000 copies for the student body to read. I hope, and expect, that this generosity will continue throughout their terms in office.
In his May 3 guest column, Eric Ohlsen states that "One would think that with that margin of victory, at least one columnist would have favored Walker and Marshall enough to write a positive opinion," and that "It is time for action to be taken." In writing this letter, I am heading Ohlsen's call to arms.
Good job, and after reading Ohlsen's column, I know that we all can expect a great year from Student Senate.

Tenure system nonretaliatory
I read the column by Cynthia Annett with great interest and believe it requires a response.
I was a member of Faculty Council and the Senate Executive Committee during the 1998-1999 academic year and served as SenEx representative to the University Promotion and Tenure Committee. During my tenure on this committee, Annett's self-nomination for tenure was reviewed — the identical dossier previously had been submitted to the Promotion and Tenure Committees within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the unit, departmental and college levels. My task was, in part, to serve as watchdog for faculty interests and as a witness to protocol and committee procedure. I do not in any way speak for that committee; the committee decision not to recommend Annett for promotion and tenure speaks for itself. I speak for myself in saying that I witnessed no evidence whatsoever of retaliatory practices by Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger, as claimed by Annett.
Her statement of no "functioning mechanisms for investigation or resolution of formal appeals for
relief" is false. There are grievance procedures in place in most of the smaller units of the campus, in all of the schools and at the level of the University of Kansas itself. The ultimate grievance mechanism is a court of law, to which Annett
appealed and which found her case wanting. I believe that Annett is appealing in her column to some kind of guilt by association in reverse. But the findings in the case of Marie Aquilino do not change, in any way, the court's verdict against Annett.

think of faculty governance as a shell game in which the problems of parking and landscaping are placed on the table while real problems such as fairness and equity are hidden from view. But governance, as Tip O'Neil said of politics, is local. Alongside issues such as parking that are of interest to facu-
ty is the issue of promotion and tenure. Consequently, faculty, not higher administration, review promotion and tenure applications and make promotion and tenure recommendations at the unit, school and University levels. Faculty, not higher administration, review any grievances that may emerge from promotion and tenure procedures.
Discrimination exists. It exists in life, it exists in Kansas and it exists at the University. We all, every one of us, suffer from it at some point in our careers. At the quotidian end of the scale, we suffer from elitism and parochialism. At the other, far more serious end are the cancers of sexism and racism. We all suffer from these because if we do not stop them from happening to others, it becomes only a matter of time before they happen to us individually. To all of this we must be vigilant, and I believe that faculty governance is vigilant.
But while prejudice is alive, Elvis is dead: KU higher administration does not engage in retaliatory practices, thanks at least in part to faculty and faculty governance.

Students should voice opinions, regardless of donors' interests
As a major higher education institution with well-known athletics and academic programs, the University of Kansas is the object of many corporations that seek collegiate contracts. The University has contracts with Coca-Cola and Nike. among others.
Every day, students buy Cokes from the numerous machines on campus, and at every athletic event, we see the Nike swoosh on our teams. In spite of this daily interaction with these products, few wonder if these corporations are involved in any potentially unethical practices.
Two weeks ago at the University of Oregon, that changed. The university's student body and student government voted to join the Workers Rights
What should be the relationship between major corporations and the student body?
Consortium, an anti-sweatshop activist group. Immediately, Phil Knight, founder of Nike, reacted by withdrawing his informal $30 million pledge, dealing a serious blow to the University of Oregon's athletics department. It seems that Knight was upset that the University of Oregon also did not join the Fair Labor Association, a government-sponsored anti-sweatshop group that includes 130 universities, including the University
of Kansas. The difference between the two groups is that the consortium does not allow corporations to participate in watchdogging themselves.
This battle of wills makes us wonder: What should the relationship be between a major corporation and a university's student body? Is it wrong for the University of Oregon's student body and student government to voice their opinion in this matter? Is Knight's response the correct one?
Students should have a say in which corporations their university is involved with. While it is evident that universities bank on contracts with corporations, this should not hinder, in any way, students' ability to voice their opinions.
I've danced at the Granada for 6 years. I am a club kid; I am also a woman. Because we get so little recognition, it was exciting to see my crew featured on the front page of Jayplay in the April 27 issue of the Kansan.
Female dancers forgotten in story
After reading it, though,
I felt disappointed. Save
for an unnamed woman,
not one female dancer was
mentioned. Despite our
small numbers, we are not
unnoticed among the
encouraging club crowds.
In her book, Black Noise,
Tricia Rose interviews "Baby Love," a female
brain-dancer who attributes the absence of women
in the media to "lack of exposure and social support."
Women's invisibility in the media continues to negate our community involvement and leadership. Women have been involved from the start. I am proud of my talented guy friends. They encourage us women as much as possible.
But to focus entirely on men, not only in photographs (they took pictures of me dancing, too), but also in the story, misleads readers as to our group's diverse membership. Although it may have been unconscious, failing to report the whole story is bad journalism. The public looks to journalists as society's narrators. I hope the future presents more inclusive reporting.

Former student stars in independent film
By BrAnne Hess

Kanson staff writer
By BriAnne Hess
Two guys, a girl and Thanksgiving break.
This love triangle and all its complications are the basis of the independent film, Love 101. The movie opens tonight at Southwind 12, 2393 Iowa St., and will be shown for one week.
Will Carpenter, former University of Kansas theater major, plays a muscle-bound guy. Steve.
"It's a college romantic comedy," he said. "It's a fun film that makes me laugh."
The movie centers on college roommates, Joe and Steve. Joe is in love with Shayna but too shy to tell her. Steve, who is content and able to have any girl he wants, sieeps with Shayna during Thanksgiving break. The melee ensues.
Carpenter and writer/director, Adrian Fulle, will be at the movie's Lawrence opening tonight to gauge audience reaction. They're on the last leg of their three-month tour through the Midwest to distribute and promote the movie.
Equipped with posters, T-
Fulle said he usually could gauge the audience reaction within the first part of the film.
shirts and an RV, the pair took the nonconformist approach to distributing and marketing their movie.
"The first 15 minutes on the average is when people have laughed," Fulle said. "Will's character, Steve, is kind of an in-your-face guy. He has some disgusting habits."
Love 101
Study Hard.
Fulle and Carpenter said they modeled Steve after some of their goofer roommates in college.
"I knew this guy at Western who would put tubes through his screen and would pee out of them." Fulle said.
Steve's character doesn't opt for the window, but often urinates in cups and leaves them sitting around his residence hall room instead of walking down the hall to the bathroom.
Carpenter said the high points of his trip were the sense of adventure that came from hitting the road and revisiting his old haunts in Lawrence. He also has visited former professors.
Adrian Fulle, writer and director of *The Lodge 101*, left, and Will Carpenter, actor and 1992 KU graduate in the theater and film, stand in front of a sign advertising their new movie. The movie will play at the Southwind 12, 3433 Iowa St., tonight and will continue until Thursday.
Portrait by Matt J. Daucherly/KANSAN
Jack Wright, professor of theater, invited Carpenter to share his experiences with
his acting and auditions classes. And Paul Meier, associate professor of theater and film, said he wouldn't miss the movie for the world.
"It's a very enterprising thing to produce a movie and be on the road to distribute it," Meier said. "That's unusual, but more power to them."
The methods behind their madness are done mostly because of budget constraints. Filming was done at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Ill., in 1997 because they were offered free housing and meals in exchange for the university's final approval of the script. Fulle decided to rent an RV to
distribute the movie because it was cheaper than staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.
And when they were selected to be played at the Cannes Film Festival in France next week, they opted to stay in the United States and save money to use for more advertising.
Bands bring new sounds, CD to The Bottleneck
By John Audlehelm
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Two bands with a new, eclectic rock sound will perform tomorrow night at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
described the band's music as acoustic-groove.
Shaking Tree, one of the bands from the Kansas City area, also will release its new CD at the concert, Matter of Choice, three days before it will appear in any stores.
The second band, Calobo, from Portland, Ore., is in the fourth week of its first nationwide tour. Tomorrow will be the band's second performance at The Bottleneck.
He said that two of the band's singers, David Andrews and Caleb Klauder, recently had started playing the electric guitar. Band members also play the mandolin and piano.
"It creates a pretty unique sound," he said.
Eric Mavers, manager of Calobo.
Mayers said that the band's new songs were structured differently and that the members had learned not to drown each other out.
"The band has been learning to play less to create more" he said.
"It wasn't a sold-out show by any means, but it was a very enthusiastic crowd," he said.
Andrews said the crowd at The Bottleneck two years ago was energetic and responsive to Calobo.
Ari Nisman, manager of Shaking Tree, said the band started in 1997 and immediately began selling out shows in the Midwest.
Shaking Tree did two independent albums before signing with Knot Known Records in November.
Nisman also said the band had been sponsored by two alcoholic beverage companies, Jagermeister and Corona.
"Shaking Tree has been the Corona radio spot all over the nation," he said.
The band will begin selling advance copies of its new CD toomor
row at the concert at a reduced price.
"It hits the streets May 9 in select stores and will be in every store May 30." Nisman said. "They've already started spinning the CD on 93.3."
He said the band, which includes three former KU students, also had a lot of variety in its music.
"We call it an acoustic alterna-pop mixed with Latin, African and Celtic vibes," he said. "Each song combines a little of everything."
Al Jacobsen, manager of the Bottleneck, said he was looking forward to the show.
"I expect a great crowd," he said. "They're both really fun bands — a lot of dancing going on."

Kansans say high marks aren't reality
Continued from page 1A
But other statistics don't paint the same picture. In the Kansas Kids Count survey, sponsored by Kansas Action for Children, a not-for-profit corporation, 30 percent of all youths in Finney County said they used alcohol in the last 30 days, falling below the state average of 35 percent.
But in the same survey, kids in Finney County reported that only 7 percent of them had ever tried drugs, lower than the 12 percent state average.
Ask University of Kansas students from Garden City, and they'll say drug and alcohol use isn't uncommon in their hometown, but it isn't remarkable either.
Nothing ever struck him as drastically different from other places, he said. "It struck me as typical activity." Lightner said.
Jess Lightner, Garden City junior, said he knew kids who did drugs, but he doesn't remember sixth graders sneaking cans of Coors Lite on the playground when he was in elementary school.
A 1999 study by Joseph Califano, president of the national Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, has sparked interest in the idea of rural kids at risk, local experts say.
Califano found that eight graders living in rural America were 70 percent more likely to have been drunk and 83 percent more likely to have used crack cocaine than their urban peers.
Experts in Kansas aren't ready to concede a similar pattern exists in the state. however
The statistics jump around from year to year, so it's hard to know if there is a significant count,"said Gary Brunk, executive director for Kansas Action for Children. "I'd be cautious about any trends. I'm not

sure."
The rural areas highlighted in Califano's study don't necessarily describe places such as Garden City. In fact, the town may not be really "rural" anymore, except perhaps to researchers in New York like Califano.
Lightner said the face of the town had changed drastically in recent years. Between 1980 and 1990, the county's population increased by 10,000.
John Calbeck, director of the Southwest Regional Prevention Center in Garden City, said towns such as Garden City were susceptible to drugs for several reasons.
Methamphetamines have gotten a rap as a rural drug, he said, and Califano's study also targets the use of the drug.
"It's a drug that's easily made in your basement," Calbeck said, "Stuff you can buy at your corner store. And they aren't generated in
urban areas. An old silo is not unusual."
Location also makes towns like Garden City susceptible.
"Garden City and Western Kansas are bisected by Highway 54, 83 and 283," Calbeck said. "There are several different intersections coming from Mexico."
A cultural crossroads is springing up in rural Kansas. Industries like Iowa Beef Processors, Inc. and Monfort, Inc., which produce beef products in Garden City, have increased the population of the town that also is becoming more diverse.
The diversity of the population is beginning to look more like a large city than small town Kansas. Whites are not an overwhelming majority in Garden City anymore — they make up only 68 percent of the town's population. The largest minority group is Hispanics, who now make up 28 percent of the population.
Jessica Ortiz, Garden City junior, said the diverse community was becoming more apparent, especially at elementary and junior high schools.
But Lightner said the increasing diversity played into stereotypes and perceptions about which ethnic groups used drugs.
Despite the findings of Califano's study, counties in Kansas that still fit a typical rural profile show drastically lower numbers. McPherson and Russell counties in central Kansas fall below 5 percent drug usage in comparison to the 11 percent state average and miles away
from Califano's 70 percent.
Thirteen percent of Barton County kids in sixth, eighth, 10th and 12th grade report having tried drugs, but Barton County is home to Great Bend. Although the town's population has decreased in recent decades and doesn't have the same diversity as Garden City, it still has about 27,000 residents. For many Kansans, this is anything but a small town.
Despite growth and diversity in Garden City, students say there still isn't a whole lot to do. Boredom can lead to drug and alcohol use, some students say.
Melissa Wilson, Garden City junior, said there was little to do besides hanging out with a close group of friends from school at places like Hastings Books, Music & Video, their local entertainment store.
"I think sometimes boredom can carry over to doing what big brother or big sis is doing." Wilson said.
Ortiz added students used drugs while cruising up and down Main Street, normally a seemingly innocent activity.
Even if drug use in rural and semirural areas like Garden City is being exaggerated, there's still an effort to curb Finney County teens from getting high and drunk.
Calbeck said Finney County had assessed all of the teen drug use numbers and was working with local law enforcement to create prevention programs. He said results for all counties were available to communities so that they could use them to start their own programs.
Information on most Kansas counties from the Kansas Kids Count survey is available at www.kac.org.
"I'd probably say there's an increased awareness out there." Calbeck said. "I wouldn't take this to mean small towns are bad places to live."

Residents wary of development
Bv Mike Zielke
Special to the Kansan
Clinton Lake State Park's woods and trails may become home to a hotel development within the park's borders, and three environmental groups have been rallying local environmentalists who want to organize against it.
CB Richard Ellis Development Team of Kansas City, Moo., is planning the construc tion of a $21.8 million resort within Clinton Lake State Park. Plans for the development includes a 150-room hotel, tennis courts, swimming pools, boat slips, parking lots and a new access road.
"The development will be in a showcase area of the park called Lands End, a forested point directly across the lake from the marina, and will infringe on one of the most popular camping spots in the park," said Curtis Martell, Lawrence resident and outdoor enthusiast.
Sally Baltes, public information officer with the Kansas Department of Commerce and Housing, said that one of the reasons the state picked Ellis is because they have experience with projects in environmentally sensitive areas.
The Ellis Development team and True North Hotels—the Kansas City, Mo., firm that will manage the hotel and conference center both have extensive experience developing and operating lake-resort facilities at places such as Lake of the Ozarks.
But that hasn't assuage environmentalists. "I go to the park to hike, kayak, camp
or to just drive through and look at the leaves and the No.1 interest of the developers is to make money." Martell said.
The development plan was set in motion in 1998 when a state law was enacted to encourage developers to build resorts at 22 of the 24 state parks.
But what some see as development others see as a disaster.
A meeting in late September among the developer, Kansas Division of Wildlife and Parks and the Kansas Division of Commerce and Housing to discuss development plans was closed to the public and reporters.
"The development would eviscerate the park, destroying it in a way that no nordes of tourists on foot, bike or boat ever could," Ringler said. "Public land will be desecrated by developers bent on making money."
Ringler and his wife have worked for the last 16 years to develop a mountain bike trail that circumnavigates the lake. The trail attracts bicycle riders from Lawrence and around the state.
"The state of Kansas ranks dead last in the nation in the percentage of public land it has set aside within its borders," said Carl Ringler, president of the Kansas Trails Council for the last seven years.
Baltes said that the meeting was just a planning session and that the developer had the right to have some of the information kept private.
"There is good reason for this secrecy," Ringler said. "If the public knew about the plans, there would be controversy. The greed and stupidity involved in this development boggle the imagination."
But closing the meeting only inflamed some environmentalists.
"The developers have several obstacles to overcome before development can begin," said Chad Luce, public information officer for the Kansas Division of Wildlife and Parks.
Obstacles include securing a long-term lease with the Army Corps of Engineers, which currently owns and leases the land to the state. There are also water rights and utility issues that raise additional environmental concerns.
The developers recently completed an economic feasibility study and are in the process of completing infrastructure and environmental studies.
Plans for water use, an access road, how and where the electricity and sewage lines will be supplied for the resort would fill out a bigger picture of the kind of environmental impact a development of this magnitude would have on the Clinton Lake ecosystem.
From these plans, the Army Corps of Engineers and the Kansas Division of Wildlife
Despite obstacles, Dan Carr, co-developer for CB Richard Ellis. said the company hoped to open the resort next year.
"Don't underestimate the ability of a small group of people to make a difference," Martell said.
Resort opponents say it is not too late for the public to be heard.
and Parks will do impact studies. After the plans are accepted by the Army Corps of Engineers and the Kansas Division of Wildlife and Parks final approval must still be granted by the Kansas Legislature.
Martell has started an e-mail campaign to inspire individuals to e-mail concerns to state representatives and local officials.
"When you write a letter it shows you care," Martell said.
Ringler said he thought the land at Clinton Lake was worth more than money.
"There is an immeasurable intrinsic value public lands offer people that cannot be outweighed by the money generated by

Baseball team looks to declaw in-state rivals this weekend
By Amanda Kaschube

Kansan sportwriter
Kansas' chances of earning a berth in the Big 12 Conference tournament are as slim as Dion Rayford's chances getting a job at Taco Bell.
Even if the 'Hawks declaw the Wildcats in the three-game series this weekend and Oklahoma State drops three to Iowa State, Kansas still might miss out.
"We have a real minuscule shot," said coach Bobby Randall. "But even if we don't get into the tournament, we're still playing Kansas State for other reasons. It's all about state pride."
The 'Hawks have dropped the last five meetings to the Wildcats, including a sweep last year in Lawrence. Kansas' last victory came in 1998 $ 0.9 \mathrm{min} $
in manhattan.
But Kansas holds a 160-141
advantage against its instate
challengers, so a win would be a perfect way to end a rocky conference season.
"We've had some frustrating games, and we've played some incredible games," Randall said.
"We haven't been real deep all season, but we want to finish strong

these last seven games. A lot of the guys have put their heart into every game, and I can't ask for any more."
Tonight's starter, Brandon O'Neal, wants more. O'Neal (1-5) was roughed up at Baylor last weekend and, as a native of Olathe, he knows the importance of winning the series.
"I want to beat K-State badly—they are our biggest rival," he said. "But we're only focusing on one game at a time. We just need to go out and play like we know we can."
The bottom-rung Wildcats have been focusing too — they beat Wichita State 18-6 in Wichita. This is proof that Kansas State is preparing for tonight's main event.
- Tuesday's and Wednesday's rained out games against the Mavericks tentatively have been rescheduled when UT-Arlington comes to Lawrence May 13 and 14. Instead of playing one game each day, Kansas will play two double-headers.
"Kansas State has had a tough year, and they aren't going to lay down." Randall said. "This is the last series to resurrect their season, too."
The 'Hawks also will have to deal with fresh Pat Maloney, who leads the Wildcats at the plate hitting. .371 with 24 runs and 29 RBI, and senior pitcher Jason Wells, who has thrown two complete games.
One thing working against Kansas may be the lack of playing time this week.
When the midweek tune-up series against the University of Texas-Arlington was rained out twice, the 'Hawks were stranded in Texas without a game to play.
But Randall won't use that as an excuse for allowing a poor performance this weekend.
"You always face adversity, and this is our adversity to overcome," he said. "I would have preferred not to have the team sit out this many games, but we're going to overcome that. We're better than that."

To nobody's surprise, the best athletic teams at Kansas in 1999-2000 were ... men's golf and women's rowing? Exactly.
For a school steeped in basketball tradition and one that is frantically spending money to improve its football program, the most successful teams this year were a couple of nonrevenue sports. It may surprise those unfamiliar with the little-known sports, but the athletes have come to expect it.
"When we get recognition like that in a basketball town, it's great," said senior golfer Ryan Vermeer. "Since we won the Big 12 Championship a year ago, more people have come up to us and wished us luck — not like it is for the football and basketball players, I'm sure, but it's been nice."
Rowing coach Rob Catloth was pleased but not surprised by his team being recognized as one of Kansas' best of the season.
"Well, hell, I think we are," Catloth said. "It's the atmosphere — the type of athletes we have, and it's a credit to the hard work from our walk-ons."
The men's golf team, which actually had a better year last year winning the Big 12 Championship, placed second this year. Vermeer, junior Conrad Roberts and sophomore Casey Harbour led the way this year, all placing in the Top 10 at the Championships.

After one more practice performance, it's on to the big show for the Kansas track and field team.
The Jayhawks are heading south this weekend for their second, yet final meet in the U.S. Track and Field Collegiate Series, before taking a bye week to prepare for the Big 12 Conference Championship meet May 19-21.
Earlier in the season, the 'Hawks traveled to Clemson, S.C., for the Clemson College Series meet, and this weekend the team heads to Atlanta for the Life
"It's cool to go to another place and compete against other athletes," said Lorri LaRowe, Kansas throws coach. "With a meet like this they won't know what to expect from us, which is fun."

And to be sure, Kansas will be a viable threat with All-American juniors Scott Russell, Andrea Branson and Charlie Gruber in the mix.

"Performance is important, but points

The team is using the Life University meet as a mental and physical gear-up for the conference meet. The personal aspect of getting big marks for the NCAA outdoor meet will just be a side note this week.
"We are looking for this meet to get us in the scoring mode," said coach Gary Schwartz. "Hopefully, this meet can get us in the ready mentally and physically to do well at conference in a couple of weeks."
Kansas women to battle tough Cornhusker pitching, hitting

The Kansas softball team hopes to avoid bleeding Cornhusker Red this weekend.
The Jayhawks, 30-29 overall and 5-11 in the Big 12 Conference, will have a challenge avoiding a Nebraska buzzsaw, as the Cornhuskers, 42-18 overall and 12-2 in the Big 12, are one of the most dominant conference teams.
The Cornhuskers are led by senior infielder Jennifer Lizama, who is batting. 363. She has totaled 53 hits and 45 RBI. Freshman outfielder Kim Ogee follows with a .346 batting average and has tallied 63 hits. Ten Cornhuskers are batting more than 200.
The Jayhawks will have to depend on their offense if they want a win against the Cornhuskers.
Sophomore center fielder Shelly Musser continues to lead the Jayhawks on offense with a batting average of .316. She also leads Kansas with 26 runs and 48 hits, with a hit in each game against Oklahoma.
Softball
Senior first baseman Shannon Stanwix also has been helping out on offense. She went 2 for 3 against Oklahoma, including two home runs.
The Jayhawks will have to keep their offense going, or the Cornhusker pitching staff could be fatal. Sophomore pitcher Leigh Ann Walker leads the Husker pitchers with an 1.43 ERA and a record of 18-5. Jenny Voss also has been pitching well for the Cornhuskers. She has a record of 16-8 and a 1.82 ERA.
"Nebraska might be ranked No. 2, but they are still beatable," said senior pitcher Sarah Clopton. "We have nothing to lose, and it's not a pressure situation. We will use it as a stepping stone for the Big 42 tournament."
The first game will begin at 6 p.m. and the second game will be at 8 tonight at the Husker softball complex.

You may feel slightly confronted, especially if you've recently decided to include somebody else in your plans. Unfortunately, this other person may not want to do things exactly your way. Lighten up. This could be stimulating.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
Have you played more than usual lately? If so, good. It'll keep you young. You may be up against a deadline again. Does this mean you'll have to take work home with you over the weekend? Oh well, it won't be the first time!
Aquarius: Today is an 8.
You're probably feeling better. You might decide to have a few people over tonight. If you do, take care. Something could spill, or someone might get obnoxious. Keep the booze — and the good dishie — in the cupboard!
Pisces: Today is an 8.
This weekend is good for staying home, maybe having a few people over. You also have chores you'd like to get done. If an older person is nagging you to come by, compromise. Spend the extra money for a long phone call, instead.

“It’s very dis-appearing,” pointed Jayhawk tennis coach Mark Riley. “The dis-mal part about it is that if we had beaten Tulsa at home a few
weeks ago we would have probabu-
made it into the tournament."
The Jayhawks had a tough schedule this season, facing 12 of the 64 teams participating in the tournament. Riley said it was the 'Hawks 1-11 record versus those teams that caused them not to make the cut.
I'm sure that is what the NCAA committee was looking at when they were considering us for the tournament," he said. "We had plenty of opportunities this season, and we will have pretty much the same kind of schedule next year."

On the other hand, Kansas had some good news yesterday. Sophomore Rodrigo Echagaray qualified for the NCAA men's singles tournament. Echagaray and his partner, junior Ed Dus, also made it into the doubles tournament. Both events are played at the same time and place as the team competition.

Freshman Eleazar Magallan, who was recently named Region V Rookie Player-of-the-Year by the Intercollegiate Tennis Associations, did not qualify for the tournament. Magallan finished the year with 29 victories, the highest win total since All-American Enrique Abaroa finished the 1997 season with 30 wins.
"Both players have had great season," Riley said. "They will represent our team well."
"Anytime you can win as many games as Magallan did this year, you have to be impressed," Riley said. "It was a pleasure to coach him."

Entrepreneur to sell
Mantle's home run ball
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Yellowed by age, the baseball Mickey Mantle hit for his 500th home run 33 years ago has landed in the hands of local investors who hope it launches their memorabilia business.
The Mantle ball has passed through the hands of several collectors and was the center of controversy when it was withdrawn from an auction in January of 1999 because the slugger's widow said it was not the real No.500.
Through subsequent investigation, the ball, owned then by Oregon entrepreneur Dale Cicero, was found to be legitimate. He sold it to Bob Przybysz and other members of a local investment group, who hope to make it the centerpiece of their memorabilia company, Prime Global Collectibles.
"We are unsure about what we will eventually do with the baseball, but we needed something big to help with getting our business off on a high note," Przybysz said.
Przybysz refused to reveal the ball's sale price, other than that it was in the six-figure range.

Golf Hall of Fame chooses new members
The World Golf Hall of Fame added five more members yesterday. Former Masters champion Jack Burke Jr, and key administrators Deane Beman and Sir Michael Bonallack were among those elected from two new categories.
Burke, who staged the greatest Masters comeback ever in 1956, was elected from the Veteran's Category, which considers players whose prime came before 1960.
Beman, who managed unprecedented growth in the PGA Tour during his 20 years as commissioner, and Bonallack, secretary of the Royal & Ancient Golf Club until retiring last year, were elected from the Lifetime Achievement category.
Neil Coles and John Jacobs, both credited with forming the PGA European Tour, also were also chosen from Lifetime Achievement.
The election came two days after Judy Rankin was voted into the Hall of Fame by the LPGA Tour. Beth Daniel and Juli Inkster previously qualified.
All eight will be inducted Nov. 20 at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Fla., the largest class in 25 years. That will bring Hall of Fame membership to 84.

INDIANAPOLIS — Larry Bird's coaching career isn't over yet. Reggie Miller made sure of it with the highest scoring playoff game of his career.
Miller scored 41 points, including 18 in the fourth quarter, and Travis Best hit a 3-pointer from in front of Milwaukee's bench for the biggest shot of the game with 16 seconds left as Indiana edged the Bucks 96-95 last night in Game 5 of their first-round series.

The victory extended the coaching career of Bird, who insists he will leave
Pacers
the profession at the conclusion of this season. The Pacers avoided becoming just the third No. 1 seed to be knocked off in the best-of-five first round and moved on to a best-of-seven second-round series against Philadelphia beginning tomorrow.
It wouldn't have happened without Miller, who was unstoppable for a huge stretch of the fourth quarter, or without Best, who shook off a 2-for-14 start to hit the go-ahead basket.
Milwaukee had a chance to
win it after Jalen Rose missed two foul shots with 1.4 seconds left, but Ray Allen could only manage an off-balance 3-pointer from about 28 feet that hit the top of the backboard at the final buzzer.
Bird spent much of the game on his feet in front of the bench, never wandering far as he called out offensive plays and encouraged his team. He said before the game that he was feeling the kind of nervousness that he

It sure looked that
way to Miller, who scored 14 points in less than five minutes midway through the fourth quarter, a burst that ended with a corner jumper from a tough angle for an 89-87 lead with five minutes left.
The Bucks scored the next five points as Miller stopped shooting and decided to pass to open teammates.
Best took several of those shots and missed them all, but the Pacers can only be thankful he never lost the nerve to keep
hoisting them up.
With Milwaukee leading 92-90, Miller got the ball isolated outside the 3-point arc and stared defender Tim Thomas directly in the eyes before quickly releasing a shot that swipped for a 93-92 lead. A 20-footer by Thomas with 50 seconds left gave the Bucks a 94-93 lead.
Best and Davis missed shots before the ball went out of bounds off Milwaukee, giving the Pacers a full 24-second clock with 29 seconds left on the game clock. Best put up a quick shot and missed, but the Pacers grabbed another offensive rebound and found Best alone in the corner for a 3-pointer that made it 96-94 with 16 seconds left.
Allen then missed on a drive and Ervin Johnson was fouled grabbing the offensive rebound, but he missed the first foul shot with 6.2 seconds remaining before making the second. The Pacers inbounded quickly and ran almost five seconds off the clock before the Bucks could foul, which turned out to be huge when Allen had to rush the final shot of the game.
Miller surpassed his previous career playoff-high of 39 reached twice before. Jalen Rose added 14 points, and Dale Davis had 10 points and 12 rebounds.

Kansas athletics down from past years

areas, along with football, men's and women's basketball, track and cross country. And this makes the golf team's placing more impressive.
"With the Texas and Oklahoma schools being in the Big 12, it makes it pretty impressive." Vermeer said. "Anybody that knows anything about golf knows that Oklahoma State has a great team. For us to win it last year and have a respectable showing this year, I think we've solidified ourselves as one of the top teams in the conference."
Although Kansas is one of only three Big 12 schools with rowing, it doesn't take away from what the Jayhawks have accomplished this year. They dominated Texas and Kansas State this season, blowing them away in competition and in the rowing rankings.
And they've been doing it for a while, with minimal space for storage or to workout, namely no boathouse to store their boats. Catloth compared the Kansas rowing area and those of an East Coast school to that of an elementary grade school gym and Allen Fieldhouse.
"We have the gym floor with the linoleum floors that you share with the cafeteria, while they [East Coast schools] have Allen Fieldhouse." Cattho said. "That's no exaggeration; it's relatively the same."
The other Kansas teams haven't fared as well this year. In fact, compared to the rest of the Big 12, Kansas comes close to bringing up the rear.
So how does one determine the best school overall?
There are 12 main sports that most — 10 or more schools — of the Big 12 participate in the "big six" along with volleyball, baseball, soccer, men's and women's tennis and softball. Other sports in the Big 12, such as swimming, gymnastics, wrestling and rowing, have anywhere from three to six teams, while only one or two schools have competing teams in equestrian, archery, bowling, rifle and skiing.
An overall winner was determined by the number of points earned based on where it finished in each sport. If a school wins a championship in football, it receives 12 points because 12 teams compete. If it finishes ninth, it gets four points.
Continuing with sports such as swimming, the top team gets six points, while the top rowing team gets three points. Sports like rifle and archery, with only one competing school, get one point. Nebraska, for instance, has a varsity rifle and varsity bowling team. Because it's the only school with either of those varsity sports, it's unfair to penalize or give points for featuring that sport.
This way, all of the sports are evenly weighted according to overall Big 12 participation.
So, with all but four sports completed, baseball, softball and outdoor track standings are finalized by this month, Texas is winning with 150 points. Nebraska is second with 141, and Texas A&M is third with 109. Kansas is 11th with 75 points, four points ahead of last place Kansas State.
If Kansas is to improve, the outdoor track team has to move up from a 10th and 12th place finish at the Big 12 Indoor and catch Texas Tech, three points ahead of Kansas.
This is quite a change from the 1989-1999 season when Kansas finished seventh overall, just behind Oklahoma State. What changed were both basketball teams performances' and slightly worse placings from women's tennis, softball and both track teams.
Which brings us to the question, what can be done?
Football is on the way up if the $25 million spent on the stadium is any indication. Both basketball teams probably will be consistent winners, and the volleyball and soccer teams have improved since the arrival of their new coaches.
New coaches are on the way for the track and swimming programs - two incredibly successful programs in the
HOW WE DID IT
An overall winner was determined by the number of points earned based on where it finished in each sport. If a school wins a championship in football, it receives 12 points because 12 teams compete. If it finishes ninth, it gets four points.
■ In a sport like softball, with only 10 teams, the winner receives 10 points, while the second place team gets nine points and so on.
past. But it remains to be seen if these sports can compete in a conference that already has nationally dominant teams.
The baseball and softball teams have had the toughest time the last few years, even with new coaches.
Baseball coach Bobby Randall is in his fifth year and is on his way to a second straight 10th place showing. In fact, the most successful year the team has had under Randall was when he inherited a team that went to the College World Series and finished sixth. The next year was the only season the 'Hawks had a winning record
It's softball coach Tracy Bunge's fourth season, but her teams have yet to improve. The 38-23 record and a trip to the NCAA regionals her first year has been her best. Since then, the Jayhawks are 89-93 and haven't finished among the league leaders. For a team that went to three straight regional finals from 1992 to 1994, things have been better.
Can Kansas improve in coming years? There's no reason it shouldn't. The past success of the athletic teams is one indication of how Kansas can compete with other Big 12 teams. The buildings promised to the rowing, softball, track and soccer teams could help bring in more blue chip recruits. Or, this could have just been a down year for Kansas athletics, and the teams might rebound next year.
Either way, the two teams that currently are the best, women's rowing and men's golf, have it together. Maybe the rest can follow.

African American to ride in Derby
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Marlon St. Julien was awakened from a nap by a phone call that lasted only a few minutes but spanned 79 years of Kentucky Derby history.
The caller, a reporter, informed him that he would be the first African-American jockey since 1921 to ride in the world's most famous horse race.
"I just want to be considered as one of the best riders in the country, whether Black, White, purple, blue or brown," he said. "I also want to leave the game with a lot of respect and say I accomplished a lot in my career."
St. Julien, 28, will ride Curule, a 50-to-1 long shot who earned a spot in the 19-horse field Wednesday with the defection of Harlan Traveler. The horse is owned by Godolphin Racing, which represents two sheiks that are members of Dubai's ruling family.
"I get the chills watching it on
TV, so I'll get a lot more goosey bumps coming out there," he said. "I'm sure it'll be a feeling of a lifetime."
St. Julien, from Lafayette, La,
became interested in racing
through three uncles who had
horses when he was young. The 5-
foot-4-inch man who weighs 115
pounds rode in his first race at 17
and won for the first time in 1989.
"I proved them all wrong." he said.
African-American jockeys dominated the early years of the Kentucky Derby. Thirteen of the 15 riders in the first Derby in 1875 were African American, and African Americans won 15 of the Derby's first 28 runnings.
The only discouragement St. Julien said he heard was from other African Americans in his hometown. They told him he would never succeed in the predominantly White sport.
Isaac Murphy was the most successful, becoming the first to win
three Derbies and first to win in consecutive years (1884, 1890 and 1891).
James Winkfield was the last African-American jockey to win the Derby, riding consecutive champions in 1901-02. The last African-American jockey in the race, Henry King, finished 10th aboard Planet, a 81-to-1 long shot.
These days, there aren't many African-American exercise riders, said Cot Campbell, co-owner of Derby horses Impeachment and Trippi.
By the early 1900s, the presence of African-American riders and trainers in the Derby began decreasing, largely because of social and economic pressures that prompted migrations from farms to Northern cities and resentment from the White racing community.
He said he didn't believe discrimination had been an issue for St. Julien, who rode a winner for Campbell last Sunday at Churchill Downs.
Goalie's return helps Wizards' record
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Tony Meola doesn't mind being called a veteran. After all, he has been playing soccer on the international level since he was 20 years old.
Just don't call the Kansas City Wizards goalkeeper old.
"It seems that every interview, especially with the national team, starts out. 'Now that you're one of the older guys ...'" Meola said. "I'm 31. I'm not old, especially for a goalkeeper."
Meola's numbers so far this season back him up.
After sitting most of last season while recovering from knee surgery, Meola now is a major factor in the Wizards' recovery from an 8-24 finish to a 6-01 start in 2000.
WIZARDS
"We have the best goalkeeper in the league, and not only because he flies around like an acrobat back there," said
Kansas City coach Bob Gansler, who also coached Meola in the 1990 World Cup. "He is so knowledgeable about the game, and he is also the best offensive goalkeeper in the league. As soon as he gets the ball he's a playmaker."
Last year, Meola had few chances to make any sort of play. He missed all but nine games after he tore two knee ligaments in the preseason.
Gansler noticed a difference when Meola attended the Wizards' preseason camp.
"I've never seen him this fit," Gansler said. "Ten years ago, his mom was such a good cook and he
never passed up a meal. Now he's chiseled and so focused."
"I remember it used to be that if someone would make a mistake, Tony would tear into them," Gansler said. "Now he's the one to put his arm around their shoulders."
His approach to teammates also has changed.
Meola's injury came just as he was re-establishing himself on the national team with shutouts against Bolivia and Germany.
U. S. coach Bruce Arena said he had talked to Meola about the possibility of returning to the national team as the No. 3 keeper — and he had not been surprised by Meola's return to form.
"It's always been Tony's strength that he's very technically experienced, and that has gotten even better now that he is getting closer to 100 percent."

Summer Volleyball Sunday Sand Court Leagues
Summer Basketball Leagues
Sept. 1, 2009 — The Jayhawk volleyball team beats Missouri-Kansas City 3-1 in the first match played in the Horelski Family Athletic Center, which was built for volleyball practice and competition. It is distinctively louder than where the Jayhawks played before — Allen Fieldhouse.
1. Oct. 12, 1999 — Witt Chamberlain, NBA Hall of Famer and former Kansas basketball player, dies of a heart attack at age 63.
2. Nov. 3, 1999 — Amanda Reves gets her 1,147th kill and becomes Kansas' all-time leader, but the Kansas volleyball team loses to Nebraska 0-3.
4. Nov. 17, 1999: 2:08 a.m. — Kansas defensive end Dion Rayford is arrested after his now-famous Chalupa craving drove him to try to climb through the 23rd Street Taco Bell drive-through window.
3. Nov. 20, 1999 — Safety Carl Nesmith blocks an Iowa State field goal as time expires, a ensuring a 31-28 Jayhawk victory on Senior Day.
Feb. 5, 2000 — Most members of the men's basketball team shave their heads in an attempt to get back on track after losing to Iowa. Coach Roy Williams vows to do the same if the Jayhawks win the Big 12 regular season championship. His hair never sees the clippers.
Feb. 12, 2000 — The Kansas bowling club teams and amateur bowlers across campus breathe a sigh of relief as the Memorial Corporation board votes to save the Jaybowl in the Kansas Union.
March 1, 2000 — Kansas track and field coach Gary Schwartz is effectively fired in his 11th season when his contract is not renewed.
March 18, 2000 — Former Kansas basketball coach Dick Harp dies at age 81. Harp compiled a 121-82 record from 1956-1964 and coached legend Wilt Chamberlain.
5. March 19, 2000 — Freshman Kirk Hinrich's three-point shot rims out in the final 8.5 seconds during Kansas 69-64 loss to Duke, ending the 'Hawks' participation in the NCAA tournament.
March 27, 2000 Swimming coach Gary Kempf is promoted to "director of student-athlete life" and "director of coaches professional development."
Wilt Chamberlain

Allen apologizes for poor decisions
University to hold private investigation of alleged battery
By Mindie Miller
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Kansas football coach Terry Allen apologized Friday to the school's athletic corporation for the way he handled allegations of sexual battery against two of his players.
"The situation that transpired was
wrong," he said. "I feel very,very,very,
very bad about that. I can't tell you how sorry I am."
The Kansas women's soccer player who alleged that the players battered her said Friday that she was disappointed it had taken so long for the department to admit its mistake.
"It's distressing that it's taken so long," she said. "I had to go to the media before
PETER BLAKE
Allen: apologized for the way the allegations were handled
they would do something."
On April 28, the woman told Lawrence police that two Kansas football players had pinned her to the hood of a truck while they fondled and taunted her. She said the attack took place Feb. 26 in a bar parking lot.
The woman said she waited so long to report the battery to the police because her coach, Mark Francis, suggested she talk to Allen first. When she found out Allen's punishment consisted of making the players run stairs at Memorial Stadium, she decided to go to the police.
Bob Frederick, athletics director, admitted that the department made some mistakes in handling the situation.
"It is obvious that mistakes were made when the student-athlete approached members of our staff to report the Feb. 26 off campus incident," he said. "It would also be a mistake if we didn't learn from this situation."
To that end, Frederick announced Friday that Barbara K. Ballard, assistant vice chancellor for the Office of Student Affairs, would conduct an independent review of the department's procedures regarding student-athlete welfare. Ballard directed the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center for 18 years and is an expert in sexual assault issues and victim support services.

University of Kansas graduate Jamie Najim leads a group lesson with her fifth-grade students at an elementary school in Kansas City, Kan. Najim has been forced to use a mix of advice from former teachers and her University of Kansas education because some education majors and their professors say the University isn't preparing its students for real-world teaching.

Students face educational balancing act
Story by BriAnne Hess • Photos by Selena Jabara
First-year teachers weigh KU education vs.colleagues' advice
For her first three weeks as a fifth grade teacher, Jamie Najim used the skills she learned at
the skills she learned at the University of Kansas. She sent personal letters to parents explaining her expectations. Her students worked in groups to finish assignments and help each other. She gave them second chances because she thought they didn't know any better. lasc out of control
Then the class got out of control.
The kids started pushing the limits to see how far they could go. They all spoke at the same time during discussion. One student ran around the classroom with a stool on his head. Another threatened to
hit her.
So Najim turned to her principal—and she put "the smackdown" into effect.
"It's not that I wasn't going to smile until December," she explained. "But I thought I could reason with them—I can't. They need consistency and direct consequences."
She didn't get the strategies she now uses at her Kansas City, Kan., elementary school from the University. She found help in the form of a diary of a first-year teacher and from teachers she has worked with and studied under.
Naiim's storv isn't unique.
KU's student teaching isn't creating ready-to-go first-year teachers, key education majors and their professors say. Some skills the School of Education teaches don't apply in a real classroom. Students also say they get more information than they can remember, and that
KU teaching interns lose momentum when they have to break in the middle of their student teaching to go back to college for 10 weeks.
Now after 18 years, the School of Education is getting ready to revamp its student teaching. The changes won't happen for at least another year—too late for Najim.
More than once, Najim said, she spent hours working on one lesson plan in her education class, only to find out that the lesson or teaching techniques wouldn't work in the real classroom.
Real-world applications
"It wasn't bad stuff, necessarily," she said. "I just found that most of the planning I had to do was more extensive than the stuff I learned from my methods classes."
She said that seeing the lessons in action also helped.
"Now that I am in my own classroom, I am using a lot of the things that I did while student teaching. Also, I have looked through my methods notebooks for ideas or to spark a memory about something, but they are not my key resource by any means."
As a research university, Najim said, Kansas too often focused on what was published in academic articles instead of what worked in the classroom.
"A lot of the professors are very research-oriented and might lack the hands-on experiences in the classroom that might be more helpful. Research doesn't help me make it through the day," she said.
She also said she only learned one method of managing a roomful of kids, and that one didn't work.

Tenure becoming more scarce at nation's universities
By Jim O'Malley
Kansan staff writer
By Jim O Malley
writes@lunen.com
Tenure decisions can make or break an academic career. And tenure may be getting harder to come by, both at the University of Kansas and nationwide.
The number of tenured and tenure-track faculty is dropping. This year at the University of Kansas, the tenure denial rate doubled from 10 percent to 20 percent. The numbers are small — four faculty members were denied tenure in 1999 and eight in 2000. Such small numbers may not be statistically significant, but denial of tenure is significant for the individuals.
So significant, that three assistant professors who were denied tenure have sued the University in the past two years.
Donna Euben, an attorney with the American Association of University Professors in Washington, D.C., said that nationwide, fewer tenure-track positions were available now than in the past. Universities are relying more on part-time and adjunct faculty.
But Sally Frost Mason, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said that in today's booming economy, entry-level tenure-track positions were less scarce than they were 10 years ago.
Three of the eight tenure denials this year were in molecular biosciences. Two other candidates from that department withdrew their applications after encountering difficulty, said Doug Ruden, assistant professor of molecular biosciences. Ruden was one of the applicants who withdrew.
assistant professors who were denied tenure to find other tenure-track jobs, so they are less likely to go quietly when their tenure applications run into trouble, she said.
In his case, denial of tenure doesn't seem to be breaking his academic career. He said that he had been offered a tenure-track position at the University of Houston for nearly double his $45,000 salary at the University of Kansas, and that he would be taking $1.5 million in grant money with him. He's also negotiating with the University of Alabama.

Regulations established, ban lifted on union parties
By Katrina Hull
Kansan staff writer
The ban on late-night parties at the Kansas and Burge unions was lifted Friday.
James Kitchen, dean of students, issued the party ban in January following a shooting in the Burge Union during an after-hours dance party sponsored by Phi Alpha Phi.
New regulations accompanied the resolution of the moratorium, including metal detector use, extra police officers, background checks on DJs and registration of non-student guests.
Quincy Garner, Olathe senior and president of Phi Alpha Phi, said the ban had hindered social events during the semester, but at the same time had given his fraternity an opportunity to focus on other activities, including community service.
"The ban has been long, but we've found other things to do," Garner said.
Typically, late night parties are sponsored by fraternities and sororites that don't have chapter houses.
While these groups found alternatives to social events on campus, a task force discussed the necessary safety measures for future late-night events. The task force included students, KU police, union representatives and University administrators.
Danny Kaiser, director of student organizations and task force chairman, said the new regulations emphasized a joint responsibility between the University and the student organizations who sponsored the parties.
NEW RULES
New regulations for late-night
Attendees must show a college or university photo ID for admission, be alumni of the sponsoring organization or be signed in as guests of students or alumni with a share ID.
All attendees and bags are subject to search or use of a metal detector.
There is no readmission to an event
DJs must be named in advance of events for back ground checks.
Events must be scheduled at least two and one-half weeks in advance
■ Union staffing at events will be increased.
Source: Office of University Relations
"I think that the new regulations will resolve some of the problems," Kaiser said. "But there's no safety bubble over the campus that protects bad things from happening while people are here."
However, for some, the regulations come too late and don't seem to make a significant difference.
Dion Jones, president of Iota Phi Theta, said his fraternity never had held parties on campus because of the hassle.
"The bad thing is that it actually took a shooting to make sure nothing more serious happened." Jones said.
Even Kaiser said the shooting wasn't the first incident to occur at a late-night party on campus.
"We've had situations before," Kaiser said. "This is the first time we've had anybody get shot."
Moreover, Jones said the emphasis on keeping track of non-KU partygoers gave the impression that KU students weren't the problem.
"It's kind of a feeling that KU students don't cause a ruckus." Jones said.
But the new regulations only require KU students to sign in non-student guests and for the guests to have a photo ID.
Jones said a more effective alternative would be keeping the IDs of all non-students during the party. With the new regulations, responsibility rests with the students.
However, Kaiser said joint responsibility was an important aspect of the regulations.
Both the University and the student organizations will share in the cost of extra security, although Kaiser said he didn't know what that would be.
"Everybody has a stake in this," Kaiser said. "If they have a stake, they need to be part of the process."

Million Mom March aims for addition of gun laws
Some people will celebrate Mother's Day a little differently this year.
About 200,000 people will be at the Mall in Washington D.C. for the Million Mom March to push for common sense gun laws, said Katie Bartlett, Wiltmore Ill., sophomore.
She said there would be a rally and speakers at the event.
She said there also would be a march at 11 a.m. May 13, at Mill Creek Park, 47th and Main streets, on the Plaza in Kansas City, Mo.
Non-moms can march, too, Bartlett said.
The event was started by a mom who grew tired of children being affected by gun violence, Bartlett said.
Graves designates May as Beef Month in Kansas
"You certainly don't have to me a mom to march," she said. "All you need is the desire to make a difference and a little spare time."
For some, the warm weather of summer means barbecuing — and Gov. Bill Graves seemed to agree when he made May Beef Month for Kansas.
"We chose May because it's a time when people are getting ready to start summer and they're starting to think about grilling beef and hamburg ers." said Matt Teagarden, coordinator of industry relations for the Kansas Beef Council.
Teagarden said that there was an increase in per capita of beef consumption in 1999. He attributed the increase to the recent information that has been released about beef.
"Some of the myths about beef being unhealthy and bad for you, people are seeing this isn't necessarily true," Teagarden said. "People associate fat, unhealthy and heart trouble with beef, but the industry has put accurate info out there about beef and its nutrition."

He said beef was high in iron, zinc and B-vitamins, something everybody needed.
Fraternity members jog on campus minus clothes
Police stopped three members of a KU fraternity after they jogged down Jayhawk Boulevard Thursday evening — naked.
According to a police report, the KU Public Safety Office was dispatched at 7:50 p.m. to a report of three men
According to the report, it was still daylight when the men ran across campus. There were numerous vehicles and pedestrians in the area, including families with small children who observed the streakers.
— sans clothes — in the area of the Chi Omega Fountain, running east-bound along Jayhawk Boulevard. When police arrived, an officer saw the men running toward Fraser Hall. The officer stopped the streakers in the service drive around the Pearson Fountain.
The three men were issued tickets for indecent exposure. They stated that the sprint was a fraternity prank.
Student rescued by crews after elevator gets stuck
A trip to the Computer Center took longer than expected for one University of Kansas student last week — she spent part of Thursday afternoon stuck in a campus elevator.
Facilities Operations workers arrived but couldn't get the elevator to work. Fire and medical crews were then dispatched to the building, where they had the student exit through the escape door on top of the elevator.
According to a police report, the KU Public Safety Office was dispatched to the Computer Center shortly before 5:30 p.m., where a student was stuck in an elevator.
The student told police she was fine and had no injuries. Facilities Operations workers posted an "out of order" sign and shut off power to the elevator.

E-mail love bug victims send responses to creator
MANILA, Philippines — U.S. government agents are going through logs of angry e-mail messages sent by people victimized by the "ILOVEYOU" computer virus to its creator, who used Philippine e-mail addresses, a
WORLD
Jose Carlotta, chief operating officer at Access Net, said he gave six to seven pages of e-mail logs to FBI agents Saturday.
"A lot of these messages were from irate victims," Carlotta said. "They were either insulting him, or ironically, some were praising him for writing such a brilliant virus. From all over the world this guy was getting both curses and praises."
In Washington, the FBI's Michael Vatis, the agency's lead investigator on computer viruses, confirmed yesterday that the two countries were jointly investigating a single suspect but said no arrests had been made.
"We'll have to wait and see how their investigation progresses before we can say anything," Vatis said.
He did express concern about a weekend delay in obtaining a search warrant from a Philippines court.
"Time is a critical factor in all of these cases, because the evidence is fleeting." Vatis said.
The "ILOVEYOU" virus unleashed a flood of e-mail that hit at least 45 million users in at least 20 countries Thursday, according to one estimate. The virus started with "ILOVEYOU" in the subject line, but several variations appeared soon afterward, including one masquerading as an e-mail joke and another as a receipt for a Mother's Day gift.
IRA lays down its guns in agreement to disarm
BELFAST, Northern Ireland — In Northern Ireland, the past decade's grueling search for peace has produced terrible bloodshed, bold initiatives and repeatedly crushed hopes.
To outside ears, it might not have sounded like disarmament when the IRA said Saturday that it would reveal hidden stockpiles of weaponry but not yet allow the weapons to be confiscated or destroyed.
Now, just as the widely hailed Good Friday peace accord of 1998 was looking like another false dawn, the Irish Republic Army has dropped its biggest political bombshell. It has blown apart the most stubborn obstacle to that accord — its own refusal to disarm.
Britain and Ireland, which for years have pressed the IRA to disarm, long presumed that weapons dumps would be identified but not necessarily given up. And to the IRA, even this least public form of disarmament — letting international inspectors travel in secret to document where weapons lie — represents a fundamental sacrifice of principle.
But the long-sought declaration is as important a step toward Northern Ireland's future stability as was the Good Friday pact itself.

Medical insurance difficult for some students to find
By Warisa Chulindra
writer @kanasan.com
Kansan staff writer
Treating ailments or getting injured is painful enough without having to worry about how to pay the bill.
Most University of Kansas students are covered by their parents' health insurance or receive care at Watkins Memorial Heath Center, which is paid for through student fees. But when students reach a certain age, they must find their own health insurance.
The age that students are dropped from their parents' health insurance varies with health plans, said Graham Bailey, public relations director of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield headquarters in Topeka. He said at Blue Cross and Blue Shield, the typical age was 23 or 24. However, the group the plan is under may choose to lower the age.
The price of individual health insurance plans depends on the coverage as well as how healthy the individual is, Bailey said. Healthy individuals will have more options.
He estimated that individual health insurance plans cost between $100 and $130 a month. However, plans that cost less than $100 do exist.
Maradeth North, Columbus first-year law stu
dent, was dropped from her parents' health insurance plan last year - a month after she turned 22. She said her parents helped her find an individual plan and paid the monthly fee of $70 for her.
"It wasn't too bad," North said. "It was just getting my new plan started before the other one ended."
North said she hoped to get on her fiance's health insurance when she got married in November.
He said he thought most insurance companies took into account the needs of students and tried to accommodate
Bailey encouraged students to check their policies and be prepared. Insurance companies usually notify the parents at least three months before their child's coverage would end.
"The idea is once you become an adult, you should look to support yourself and take care of your own needs," Bailey said. "But we understand that students need the extra help."
Students staying in Lawrence but who aren't taking classes can pay a fee of $49.50 to use Watkins services this summer.
For graduates who are seeking a health care provider, they may continue to visit Watkins for up to a year after they graduate, said Randall Rock, Watkins' chief of staff. The cost is $86 per semester.
ON THE RECORD

Stores brace for buyback
Students to hawk books for dollars
By Wanisa Chulindra
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
As University of Kansas students finish their classes, many will lug their textbooks to bookstores, hoping to exchange them for crisp dollar bills.
Nicholas Beckmann, Smith Center junior, said he looked forward to the experience.
"I paid $500 for books this semester," he said. "I'm hoping for a big payback."
Keith Kielman, textbook manager at the Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, said book buyback was all about supply and demand.
"Supply and demand seem to be dirty words in our capitalist society," Kielman said.
Each department turns in a list of books it plans on using for the summer and fall semesters. The summer semester list was due March 20, and the fall semester list was due April 20.
However, 50 to 70 percent of professors and faculty don't turn in the necessary lists until book buyback begins. Kielman said. That leaves bookstores second guessing, thus
sometimes shortchanging students. He said that on Friday alone, he had entered 25 faculty requests into the computer system.
Jack Porter, chairman of the department of mathematics, said that instructors teaching junior- or senior-level classes might need more time.
Another problem students may encounter is not being able to sell back their books because of new editions. Bill Getz, KU Bookstore textbook manager, said that companies generally changed editions about every two and a half years. But he said more and more departments preferred using editions for longer periods.
Porter said that changing textbooks was not a decision the department made lightly; it forms a committee to make that decision. He said it was not uncommon for the department to change textbooks after two or three years; however, if instructors thought the textbook wasn't meeting department goals.
"When we change textbooks, we usually have particular goals in mind." Porter said.
Contrary to popular belief, new books and used books are bought back at 50 percent of their original values, though the condition of the books is a factor. Getz said.
"We seldom get as many used books

Parking on Oread could be spared
The University of Kansas wants to leave some parking spots on Oread Avenue and Mississippi Street untouched instead of removing them to make way for the new parking garage near the Kansas Union.
Rodger Oroke, director of general services for the University, said that as the July 31 completion date for the garage drew closer, the University realized it would not need the city to remove all the parking it had originally requested.
He said the original request had been made without having a feel for how the project would play out.
The original request was for the city to remove all parking on the west side of Oread, from 12th Street to Baumgartner Drive. Oroke said the University now plans to leave the seven or eight spots between 12th Street and the entry to the garage.

garage area," Oroke said. "We think we've made reasonable accommodations that make sense."
As for Mississippi Street, the University is officially sticking with its original request to remove all parking on the east side.
Oroke said this was necessary to make room for a new left-turn lane into the garage and to ensure that firefighters could reach the fire hydrant on the west side of Mississippi.
But Oroke said the University would be willing to consider leave-

"One car is important if that's the space you're looking for," he said.
The City Commission will discuss the new requests at tomorrow night's meeting.

City manager Mike Wildgen said if the commission agreed with the request, it might become law in two to three weeks.
Wilden said given the short distances at issue, the City Commission might not have much choice but to agree.
Brett Dicus, Overland Park sophomore and resident of the apartment complex at 12th and Oread streets, said he was glad the parking might not be removed.
Erich Bublitz was upset when he learned he was the subject of an investigation by a University committee set up to prevent workplace violence on campus.
Dicus said when the parking had been temporarily removed for construction trucks, he had tried to park in the lot behind his complex.
The Lawrence senior had complained in March 1999 to Tom Sarowski, dean of business, about a dispute he was having with Kay Nelson, then an assistant professor of business. He filed a formal grievance against Nelson in May 1999. As their dispute developed, Nelson came to believe that Bublitz was emotionally unstable and was a threat to her safety.
"I park there all the time," he said. "That's prime parking."
"That lot was really full," he said. "We were short about five spots, basically."
The University eventually decided that Bublitz wasn't a threat and that Nelson should apologize. But no one is happy about the resolution, and the conflict has left scars on the business school.
Business school rattled
"Eirich and Kay certainly had significant disagreements," said Jim Heintz, professor of business. "Gradually she got more concerned about Erich. She was expressing fears for her safety."
Bubbitz learned in September 1999 that the KU Threat Assessment Team, a University committee set up to prevent workplace violence on campus, was looking into Nelson's concerns about Bubbitz. Bubbitz said Nelson's fears were unfounded.
"I've never touched a gun in my life except for a BB gun at scout camp," he said.
Several weeks later, the Threat Assessment Team concluded that none of the incidents reported by Nelson demonstrated a physical threat.
Bublitz said he first learned Nelson was criticizing him in an e-mail that referred to "the Erich problem" that was inadvertently sent to him in February 1999.
The dispute began because of something Bublitz saw when he was working in Nelson's husband's office
Erich Bubltz said the apology was inadequate.
— a form that suggested to Bublitz that Nelson was interested in leaving Kansas for the University of Wisconsin. Bublitz told his father, Bruce Bublitz, associate dean of business.
Nelson's lawyer, Stephen Cavanaan, said in a 1999 letter to Bublitz's lawyer that Nelson considered it an invasion of privacy for Erich Bublitz to read the document and tell his father. He wrote that Nelson considered Erich Bublitz emotionally unstable and dangerous.
Erich Bublitz said Nelson had no reason to tell anyone he was emotionally stable and dangerous. He said he suffered from chronic depression and attention deficit disorder and had told Nelson about it before the dispute began. Erich Bublitz said Nelson took the information and used it against him.
The business' school faculty grievance committee ruled in October 1999 that Nelson had violated Bublitz's rights.
"Some things that were said about Mr. Bublitz ought not to have been said," the committee wrote.
"I apologize if I in any way acted in an unprofessional manner toward you," Nelson wrote in response. "I should not have attempted to address your behavior."
The committee recommended that Nelson apologize.
Nelson declined to comment and referred all questions to Cavanaugh.
Sarowski said he had tried to resolve the dispute through the proper procedures.
"I always encouraged Erich to file a grievance," he said. "I didn't expect to be named in the grievance."
He said he thought the University had given unwarranted credibility to Nelson's statements about him when it allowed her to teach her fall 1999 courses through the Internet from Utah.
Erich Bublitz said he felt the business school hadn't been neutral in his dispute with Nelson. That's why he also named Sarowski in his grievance.
Sarowski was cleared. By the time the grievance process was over, Erich Bublitz had run up $16,000 in attorney fees. His lawyer, Greer Lang, tried to negotiate a settlement with the University. Eventually the University offered to pay $7,000 if Bublitz would agree not to talk about the incident. Lang said.
Erich Bubltz said he rejected the offer because he felt it was more important to talk about it.
Rose Marino, associate general counsel, said she had no comment on the negotiations.
The incident has left scars in the business school.
Sarowski is retiring, and Bruce Bublitz has agreed to become dean of the business school at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Nelson is now an assistant professor of accounting at the University of Utah.
Bruce Bublitz said the University had not protected his son's rights.
"It's not how a great university is supposed to act," he said. "Whether faculty screw each other is one thing, but students should be protected. I'm not sure even a corporation would sink to this level."
Dispute inflated by e-mail
In March, before Erich Bublitz, Lawrence senior, filed his grievance against Kay Nelson, former assistant professor of business, and Tom Sarowski, dean of business, he sent a letter to Provost David Shulenburger complaining about Nelson. Around the same time, Sarowski told Bublitz's father, Bruce Bublitz, that his term as associate dean would not be renewed.
Bublitz said he feared his father's nonrenewal as associate dean was the result of his dispute with Nelson.
"I didn't fire Dr. Bubitz.",
Sarowski said. "I informed him in March that his term would end in June. It was not a nasty kind of firing situation. There was a letter of complaint delivered to my office the day after I visited with Dr. Bubitz."
The dispute widened when an e-mail sent by Sarowski to Bruce Bublitz in January was sent on to other business school faculty. In the e-mail, Sarowki said that the only thing the faculty was good at was bitching and that they were whiny jerks,
"I'm starting to find them all distasteful," he said.
Sarowski said the situation was unfortunate.
"I saw this as a sort of an executive privilege kind of document sent to two higher-level executives," he said. "I didn't sent it to the faculty. It is awfully embarrassing. I apologize to all of our faculty. I've learned my lesson."
Sarowski, who is retiring, said one lesson he learned was that it was too easy to hit the send button after composing a heated e-mail.
Jim O'Malley
dissatisfied with the University's handling of the dispute. He said she thought the business school couldn't be impartial because Bublitz's father was associate dean.
Provost David Shulenberger said he thought the grievance process was fair.
Bublist plans to finish his degree at the University in December.

Saving lives should be first priority in debate about fetal tissue research
Recently, a moral debate about the use of fetal tissue for research has been surfacing more and more in the headlines. There is one side that is advocates the research because of the potential for finding cures to Alzheimer's disease and various spinal cord problems. On the other side are those who feel it is morally wrong to use unborn fetuses as research. Despite overriding moral issues, the potential to find new cures for serious medical conditions makes the use of fetal tissue a good way of testing for possible cures. Like the controversy surrounding abortion, it simply comes down to whether one is for abortion rights or an abortion opponent.
One side views the issue as taking lives
Using unborn fetuses holds potential for finding new cures to serious medical conditions
of the unborn and the other views it as saving the lives of someone else. The promise of using fetal tissue for research is limitless. Using fetal tissue is important because the tissue divides and grows rapidly, therefore it accurately mirrors the effects of human development very closely. Jonas Salk used fetal tissue when he was developing the polio vaccine.
Today, fetal tissue is injected with vaccines to see whether they lead to infec
tions. About $110 million in grants have been awarded in the last six years for fetal tissue research, largely for diabetes study and for research on digestive, kidney and nerve diseases. Those opposed are scared that with all the recent advancements, fetal tissue will become a material used for sale and profit. But federal law prohibits the sale of fetal tissue organs. Also those opposed see it as a lack of humanity because they think the unborn fetus is being used as raw material. But if the cells of something that is not even technically a human can further important medical research, so be it. The lives of millions are more important than the tissue of an unborn fetus.

Our concern for the female athlete who has spoken out about allegations of abuse as well as our concern for all survivors of sexual violence prompts us to write this letter. It takes great courage, even in this day and age, to speak out about such issues. We are reminded when reading the comments during the last few days that sexual violence is profoundly painful and upsetting and may impact all of us in ways in which we are not aware. The impact on those who are survivors is significant. It is common to feel depressed, outraged, demoralized and/or confused. In addition, it is important to recognize the impact sexual violence has on those close to survivors as well as the community at large. On an individual level, these crimes can generate feelings of anger, pain, helplessness and despair. On a broader level, we all are impacted by the climate of fear and distrust that is perpetuated when these incidents occur.
If you or someone you know is
affected by sexual violence, please reach out for help. There are many services on campus and in the community that are here for you. Whether you are female or male, in a gay or straight relationship, a survivor or a friend, we can provide assistance and resources. Some of the on-campus services, available year-round, include the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center at 864-3552, Counseling and Psychological Services at 864-2277, Watkins Memorial Health Center at 864-9500 and the KU Public Safety Office at 864-5900.

Regarding the horrific event that came to light last week, two points need to be brought up. First, the message that coach Terry Allen has sent to all women on campus is alarming. He is in a much larger position of power than he realizes. Sexual misuse is a big problem in our culture. It is men like Allen who can help get the message across to sexually unhealthy young men that this sort of behavior is wrong! Men and women who sexually misuse people need help and worthy punishment. By not stepping in responsibly, Allen reinforced this behavior instead of doing something to stop it. Second, I hope the men in the Athletics Department who do not treat women this way speak out and let their teammates know that they do not approve of that behavior. I am proud to say I go to a University where so many people have spoken up to let this woman know that we do care and that it wasn't her fault.

Pursuit of pop queen ends in bar with glass of scotch
Most of the time, they are nothing more than pranks from overgrown teen-agers. But you have to follow them up, because what if they're true? Then you've missed a great story and your editors are likely to take you outside, tie you to a tree and beat you with sticks.

what she really is, isn't she?) Britney Spears was coming to the KU campus to check out the school.
It all started last Monday. I had just gotten over a fit of inaccuracy, during which I misquoted a senior KU administrator. I walked into the Kansan newsroom and sat down at my desk. I hadn't been there but three minutes before I was descended upon by two savage editors.
"Guess what you get to do?" they asked. When they say that, it's never good.
They handed me the story, "Britney's coming!" they said. Great. I tried to escape, but the whip had already fallen. Sq this was my punishment for the misquote, I thought. Fine. I'll do my penance, write the story and have it done with.
Suddenly, I was the butt of jokes in the newsroom. I was to be the Kansan's new "teen beat" reporter. A colleague came by to tell me he had just been informed that the members of 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys were all coming to the University of Kansas. They were going to start an all-boy-band fraternity. I told him I'd get right on it.
I called Student Body President Ben Walker, who claimed to know nothing. I called the recent winner of the Britney Spears Dance Camp essay contest, Thomas Franklin. Franklin, a journalism student senator wouldn't give me a straight answer.
I must have talked to 50 people that day. Many swore it was true. They had heard it from a friend whose cousin worked at the Office of Admissions. Britney was, in fact, coming to the University. She was going to play Division I volleyball. She was going to coach the football team. She would major in ceramics with a minor in genetics and would do it all tuition-free on the condition that she would perform at all the chancellor's parties.
But when the smoke finally cleared, there was no concrete evidence that Britney was coming. I wrote my article, and on my way home, I
It was all over, or so I thought. I felt as though I'd just been released from prison.
Then Friday came. Someone called. This person said that Britney was coming again this afternoon. Our esteemed journalism student senator, would be giving her the tour.
11:30 a.m. — Entered the newsroom and received the rumor that Spears would be visiting again today. Will this punishment ever end? Placed calls to Walker and Franklin. Neither were in.
stopped at my favorite bar and had a double scotch.
I've always been a fan of film noir and detective stories. It is in that spirit that I wrote the following notes on Friday while searching for the elusive pop queen.
11:50 a.m. — Arrived at the Visitor Center and asked the nice woman behind the counter if Britney was scheduled for a tour. "We have no Britney," she politely replied. She informed me that three female Britney fans came in a few minutes earlier looking for Spears. Is this what I've been reduced to? Feeling like a common groupie?
11:40 a.m. — On the trail of Britney. Mounted a bus for the Visitor Center. Asked the bus driver if he had seen Britney. He replied, "What does she look like?" I resisted the temptation to say, "Like every 16-year-old boy's wet dream."
12:15 p.m. — Back at the newsroom. Walker returned my call and said he didn't know anything about it. Franklin reportedly went home for the weekend. Was it all a clever ruse?
1:30:20 p.m. — Searching. Asking everyone I saw if they had seen Britney. One guy said he thought he saw her at the Spencer Art Museum. "If you see her again, call the Kansan," I replied. He suggested I call him if I 'found Britney. He wanted to ask her out.
2:35 p.m. - Back at the newsroom. Was informed by my fellow reporters who had the luxury of going to The Wheel for a beer that they had seen Walker there, sans Britney.
3:00 p.m. — Got a call saying that Eric Chenowith had just left the Office of Admissions. He said that his friend had seen a limo on campus and wanted to know if Britney was here. Maybe Chenowith and I could pool our resources.
3:30 p.m. — I give up. Back at my favorite bar, sitting comfortably in front of another double scotch.
So that's it. Were the rumors that Britney was here on Friday real? We may never know. But do me a favor: If you see Christina Aguilera on campus Monday, don't call me.

Compostela, where the apostle, St. James (Santiago in Spanish), supposedly is buried. Santiago, a close friend of Christ, was said to have evangelized in the Iberian Peninsula circa 40 A.D. He later was martyred in Jerusalem, and through a series of miracles and the guidance of an angel, two friends are said to have brought his body by boat to the rocky coast of Galicia, and to have buried it a short distance
Although his tomb wasn't rediscovered until the ninth century, the saint quickly became a rallying point for the small Christian kingdoms tucked into Spain's northern mountains. They needed everything they could muster in their battle against the Muslims to the south. As the Christian kingdoms pushed south, the area became safer and pilgrims poured over the Pyrenees to visit the tomb of the apostle and receive indulgences and dispensation.
inland. The burial site was forgotten until a star falling in a field marked the spot, hence Compostela, or Campo de la Estrella, which translates to "The field where the star fell."
O f the 60 million visitors to Spain every year, a growing percentage come to follow a path that has led people to these lands for more than a thousand years.
In the Middle Ages, pilgrims began making their ways to the town of Santiago de
Pilgrims came from all across Europe and from all walks of life, usually making the trip as their productive years drew to a close. The pilgrimage rewarded a long life of toil, was a time to make peace with one's maker and a chance to travel beyond the horizon. At that time, the west coast of Galicia was Finis Terrae, the end of the known world.
After Jerusalem and Rome, Santiago de Compostela became the third most important pilgrimage site in Christiandom. All along the Camino de Santiago (Road to Santiago) churches, monasteries and hostels sprang up, ensuring the physical safety and spiritual guidance of the pilgrims. Many of these buildings still hold some of the wonders of Spain's history, from Romanesque art to stained glass to wonderfully ornate Baroque alter pieces.
This semester, I traveled parts of the
Camino in a small bus with a class that studied the pilgrimage, medieval life and the art along the way. The study tours blew me away with the beauty of the buildings and landscape, the devotion it took to make all these monuments and the importance of the Camino in the history of Spain. The millions of pilgrims who traveled into Spain brought ideas, money and political influence from the north into the kingdoms that eventually became Spain. The Camino is one of Europe's cultural highways, which is why the entire way was named a part of the World Patrimony by the United Nation Education, Science and Cultural Organization.
Today, pilgrims still walk the Camino for religious reasons or just to take a good hike. It's 500 miles across Spain alone, more if you start somewhere in France or beyond. Tens of thousands crowd the hostels in Holy Years when Santiago's feast day, July 25, falls on a Sunday. This is an explosion from just 30 years ago when only a handful walked into Santiago de Compostela with calloused feet, bronzen skin, pack, broad-brimmed hats, staffs and scallop shells — the symbols of the pilgrimage. The Camino de Santiago, like any pilgrimage, whether to Graceland, the Holy Land or to Mecca, forces tough questions. What is your road in life? Why are you following this one? What is your personal "Santiago?"
These are questions that I faced numerous times during the past year while studying abroad. I've seen amazing things, had great experiences and encountered people and ideas that challenged my beliefs – and I came out the better for it. Through it all, I've constantly been reminded of how fortunate my life is and how lucky I am to be able to travel and to have the options in life that I do. It's a feeling most of us as over-privileged Americans should feel when we see how other people live.
The only answer I've found to any questions is to simply follow the example of the multitudes who have spent months crossing Spain's mountains, central plateau and the moist, green valleys of Galicia: Choose a goal, take a step, keep walking. When you get to your destination, a new road will become the right way to go. Follow your dreams. Be a pilgrim.

Women receiving tenure less often
Continued from page 1A
But that isn't always the case. Marie Aquilino, a former assistant professor of art history who sued the University after she was denied tenure, said it would be nearly impossible for her to find another academic position.
Tenure and Gender
In the two tenure-related lawsuits against the University that have gone to trial, the plaintiffs alleged gender discrimination. Figures provided by the Provost's Office show that the number of tenured female faculty is growing but that women are underrepresented among tenured faculty.
The number of female tenured and tenure-track faculty has increased by 104 in 18 years. Provost David Shulenburger said he was proud of the increase.
According to figures from the AAUP, the University of Kansas has the lowest proportion of female faculty of any institution in Kansas. But women are underrepresented in research institutions nationwide, Euben said, and the University of Kansas is the only
Research I institution in Kansas.
A higher proportion of women are in the tenure pipeline now than in the past, up 12 percent in 18 years.
Women hold a higher proportion of nontenure-track faculty positions. In fall 1999, 51 percent of nontenure-track faculty were female.
- Female faculty are denied tenure at slightly higher rates than male faculty. Between 1992 and 2000, 10.7 percent of male applicants and 13.3 percent of female applicants were denied tenure.
■ Tenure-track women may be taking longer than men to reach tenure. Women who entered the tenure track in 1988 took an average of 4.5 years to reach tenure, but women who started in 1992 took 5.6 years.
Frost Mason said several factors might account for this. The University permits faculty members to stop the tenure clock for up to a year for personal reasons.
Junior female faculty often take leave to have children or care for sick family members, Frost Mason said.
Ballard to conduct review of department procedures
In addition to Ballard's review, Frederick said he also had contacted the National Consortium for Academic Sports and arranged for members of its Mentors in Violence program to conduct seminars this summer and next fall for student-athletes and KUAC staff members.
Allen said Friday he had called the soccer player Thursday night and apologized, but he denied allegations that he discouraged her at a March 2 meeting from reporting the battery to the police.
She said Friday that although Allen did not specifically tell her not to report the battery to police, he made it sound like reporting the crime would be more difficult than letting him deal with the players.
"He said he would support me if I reported it," she said. "He also said that if you do that you should remember it would be a very ugly situation with all the media attention."
She said that Allen said if he was allowed to punish them instead, he would make sure it never happened again.
The woman said she heard nothing from the athletics department after her meeting with Allen and Francis until Associate Athletics Director AmPerko contacted her on April 25.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said it would take at least two weeks for the department to complete its inquiries. Allen has said that the players would be dismissed from the team if convicted in connection with the incident.
The woman said Friday that she probably should have gone to the police first.
"It made sense to talk to Allen at the time," she said. "I should probably have pressed charges because the way the athletic department dealt with it has had a negative impact on the case."
She said her teammates and other athletes had been very supportive.
"People keep coming up and telling me, 'You've got guts. You're strong.'" she said. "But it's not even about that. It's about pride now. I can't believe that's all I'm worth is a few extra stairs at the stadium."

NINTH GRADUATION
Education school rethinking its curriculum
Continued from page 1A
Stephanie Klosterhoff, 1997 graduate and first-grade teacher in Lawrence, added that the education classes she's taking toward her master's degree in education seemed more applicable in her classroom than her undergraduate classes.
"Maybe it's because I have a context to use them in now," she said. "I didn't know what to expect as an undergraduate."
Klosterhoff said that she thought some of her education classes were more busywork than useful teaching tools.
Guy Janousek, a student teacher in Lawrence, even said he never learned how to write a lesson plan. "It was mentioned, but no one ever asked me how to do it." he said.
Arthur Sloan, a teacher at Lawrence High School, often works with KU student teachers. He said that they usually knew how to write lesson plans but that they lacked the skills and methods to turn them into effective lessons.
He said classroom teachers gave student teachers a support system while they learned how to convert lesson plans into actual teaching.
Remembering all of the teaching tips and strategies from teaching courses is another problem for teachers. Janousek said that he had taken the methods courses and knew what he was supposed to teach but that he couldn't remember any of the tools he had been taught only a few semesters ago.
"The problem is remembering them," Janousek said. "I don't remember them or think about them until after. There's no question that I have a wealth of knowledge, but my lack of experience makes it difficult to disseminate what I use and when I use it."
Najim also said that student teaching was different from teaching in her own classroom.
"Student teachers use things they learned in school; first-year teachers use things they learned in their internship or from other teachers," she said.
Klosterhoff said that her student teaching year would have been improved if she didn't have to go back to class for 10 weeks in the middle of the first semester. She said she missed parent-teacher conferences, and as a result, didn't know what to expect from parents during her first year.
Possible solutions
Najim's boyfriend, Regan Koch, is in the middle of KU's experimental fifth-year program. He immediately went from teaching at a middle school to teaching at a high school instead of taking the 10-week break. Now he attends classes two days a week at the University and teaches for three.
Najim didn't have that option. "He has loved the entire experience," she said. "I am sure the program is extremely valuable and is probably more relevant to actual teaching and learning than was my experience."
Najim didn't have that option.
"Student-teachers use things they learned in school; first-year teachers use things they learned in their internship or from other teachers."
Jamie Najim
Fifth-grade teacher and KU graduate
Earle Knowlton, associate dean for teacher education and undergraduate studies, said the school had formed two committees to rework the fifth year, the year that includes all student teaching. He said that the School of Education was trying to make a good program the best it could be.
"We realize it's a tall order to produce hit-the-ground-running licensed teachers," Knowlton said. "We could continue what we are doing and all right, but why not make it better?"
Knowlton said the idea behind keeping student teachers in the real-world classroom the entire fifth year was to give them a background for what they were learning in education classes.
"You have to have a context," he said. "You can't sit in a college classroom after teaching in a classroom. It needs to be tied to the experience and the issues."
Mary Lynn Hamilton, director of program coordination in education administration, said the school was working on a new curriculum framework. Once the faculty approves it, it will form sub-committees to work on other changes. Education professors, public school teachers and students will be included in the committees, she said.
She said the school was making changes as a reaction to feedback from students, faculty and the University. Changes won't be made to the curriculum until the fall or spring 2001, she said.
But changes can't come too soon for many teachers.
Her idealism had worn thin by April.
When Najim started teaching in August, she thought she could earn the First-Year Teacher Award.
"I have questioned whether this is something I'm supposed to be doing" she said. "Then there are the days I think that I was meant to do this. It's still a roller coaster for me. I don't blame anyone. It's not me, not the district, not the kids and it's not KU. I don't think 10 years of education could have helped me."

Human gene map nears completion
By Jim O'Malley
writer @kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
The huge scientific effort to map all 80,000 human genes is nearing completion, the director of the human genome project told a crowd of hundreds Friday afternoon at Budig Hall.
Francis Collins, director of the National Human Genome Research Institute of the National Institutes of Health, visited the University of Kansas at the request of Sen. Sam Brownback.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway introduced Brownback as one of the members of the Senate who really cared about biomedical research.
He said the project promised wonderful possibilities, such as the elimination of cancer.
Brownback in turn introduced Collins. Brownback called the project one of the great scientific discoveries of the day.
Collins called the project the periodic table of the elements for biology, but a table with 80,000 entries instead of 103. The periodic table was instrumental to chemistry. Collins said, and the human genome project similarly would be beneficial to genetic research.
Collins said the project had potential practical benefits, such as better analysis of diseases.
"Virtually all diseases have a genetic component," he said.
The project is an immense one, Collins said. There are three billion base pairs in the human genome. The DNA in a single white cell would be two miles long.
But the project is proceeding ahead of schedule, he said. The research centers involved in the project are generating 1,000 base pairs a second.
Collins said all data would be put in a publicly accessible database.
The project assembled samples of DNA from 450 people because variation within the human genotype needs to be cataloged.
"We're particularly interested in the places where people differ." Collins said.
The project is just about complete, he said.
"Now the fun begins," he said.
Collins predicted that advancements in the next 30 years would include gene therapy for cancer and other diseases and understanding of the genetic basis for mental illness.
He also predicted genetic diagnosis of human embryos very shortly after fertilization. But he said he didn't think there would be designer babies. The diagnosis would be a lousy predictor of specific traits, he said.
"But not to worry," Collins said. "The death rate will still be one per person."
Understanding the genes involved in the human aging process was another prediction.
Collins said he expected major anti-biotechnology movements in the United States in response to genetic research. Collins predicted that complete genomic sequencing of individuals would be routine and cost less than $1,000.
"You might want to be careful about who you show it to, though." Collins said.

The project already was looking into the ethical, legal and social implications of the project, Collins said, and had already produced proposed legislation to prevent genetic discrimination in insurance.
But Collins said the project still would leave people wondering about important questions.
"We won't understand what love is all about." Collins said. "Nor will we understand the spiritual side of human beings. But we will understand the parts list."

Neighborhood not fond of renters
Centennial residents seeking city's help
By Erinn R. Barcomb
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ethel DeGraff has seen changes in the Centennial neighborhood in the 40 years she has lived there, and not all of the changes have been good.
DeGraff and other neighbors are concerned about the amount of rental property that has sprung up in the neighborhood, which is bordered by 19th and 23rd streets, and Massachusetts Street and Naismith Drive.
Mark Lehmann, owner of L&S Management Services LLC, said the neighborhood was about 50 percent single-family and about 50 percent rental.

"It's not the most favored location for students," Lehmann said. Even though students like living close to campus, they would rather live in the so-called student ghetto on

Dana Hazels, Leavenworth senior, said she hadn't planned on living in the Centennial neighborhood, but she loved her house at 19th and Massachusetts streets.
"I like it because it's close to downtown and close to campus," Hazels said. "It's not where a lot of students are. With me, the apartment thing didn't do it."
"Lawrence has a great bunker of transient people who don't want to purchase a house because of the University," Lehmann said. He said families might rent because a family member might only need to spend one or two years at the University to finish getting a degree.
borhood that families did.
"You can drive down the street and tell which ones are rental, usually because of the cars and trash," Blank said.
Bob Blank, who built his house in the neighborhood in 1953, said having too much rental property was bad for the neighborhood. He said he was not against rental property or students, but students didn't take the same interest in the neigh-
Of the neighborhood's 625 houses, more than 200 are rental property, Blank said.
Not all of the properties are rented out to traditional students. Some are rented out to families with children.
Rental property also raised taxes in the neighborhood, Blank said, because once a single-family house was made into a multi-person rental property it tended to be overvalued.
To keep large numbers of renters out of the Centennial neighborhood, Blank is working on a petition that will ask the city to make an ordinance that would only allow two unrelated people to live together.
"Since 1946 I've seen what's happened," Blank said. "There used to beautiful homes on Ohio, Louisiana. . . they're practically all gone. They're apartments or parking lots."
Provost boasts of national scholarship winners
Ryan Devlin
Kansan staff writer
writer@kansan.com
As the semester drew to a close, Provost David Shulenburger answered questions regarding his thoughts on the University's accomplishments this semester and what the future holds. The following is a transcript from that interview.
Q: What have been the University's biggest accomplishments this semester?
legislature?
Shulenburger: I believe that the many national scholarships and awards won by students this year is the biggest accomplishment. Obtaining funding for a 5.9 percent merit salary increase was also very important.
Q: How satisfied were you with your efforts and the efforts of others representing KU in the State
Shulenburger: The Regents, the Governor and a bipartisan coalition of legislators generated a significantly higher salary increase
for faculty than for other state employees. I believe that our persistent effort to put before these bodies an accurate picture of our very large salary deficit helped in the case. Over time, the passage of the
Mike Mulvey
Shulenburger:
proud of scholarship winners
Faculty of Distinction bill will be seen as monumental in importance. This bill provides an earnings-equivalent match for endowment gifts of $500,000 or more if the purpose of the gift is to support faculty. The bill clearly increases resources available to recruit and retain faculty, but it also provides a significant incentive for donors to make such endowment gifts.
Q: The University was involved in two trials this semester involving tenure and discrimination. Is this a growing problem at KU?
Shulenburger: I do not believe unlawful discrimination in the promotion and tenure process has occurred at KU. In one case, we were found not to have discriminated, and in the other, the discrimination charge was dismissed by the judge. I am concerned that any faculty member might feel that discrimination is a problem in the promotion and tenure process at KU. Since all the procedure
involved in the promotion and tenure process is a product of faculty deliberation, I would ask that faculty governance consider whether the process might be changed such that the opportunity for individuals to perceive that discrimination is a problem would be minimized. Clearly, we have to have a process for making promotion and tenure decisions that is both fair and is perceived as fair.
Q: What are some of your goals for the future?
Shulenburger; A major goal over the next several years will be to obtain legislative appropriations to continue significant salary increases for faculty such that we catch up to the level of our funding peers. Salaries of both classified and unclassified staff are a significant problem that also must be addressed.

Formula One champ wins Spanish race
BARCELONA, Spain — Mika Hakkinen went to the front during a slow pit stop by polesiter Michael Schumacher, then led a McLaren sweep of the top two spots yesterday in the Spanish Grand Prix.
it was the first victory this season for the two-time and defending Formula One champion, who also won the race last year. It was the second straight McLaren victory following wins in the first three races this year by the Ferrari of Schumacher.
"It feels like it has been a really long time since the last win," Hakkinen said. "I don't know how I can explain how pleased I am. I'm just over the moon."
He finished 16.066 seconds ahead of teammate David Couthard, who raced just five days after being slightly injured in a private plane crash in France that killed the pilot and co-pilot.
Schumacher, the two-time series champion who won earlier this season in Australia, Brazil and Italy, had the lead until a 17.5-second pit stop after 41 of 65 laps. Slow refueling of his car gave the advantage to Hakkinen, who was in at the same time but out in just 6.5 seconds.
BASKETBALL
Former Net says he wants to be NBA coach
NEWARK, N.J. — Former New Jersey Net Rick Barry is interested in becoming the team's next head coach.
Barry, who starred for the ABA Nets from 1970-72, has sent a letter stating his desire to New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, who also is a member of the YankeeNets board of directors.
"I definitely have an interest in coaching the Nets," said Barry, now coach of the Florida Sea Dragons of
the United States Basketball League. "A lot of guys are getting jobs who haven't coached a day in their lives.
NETS
When I hear some of the names thrown out there, mine is never one of them."
So Barry, never shy about taking a shot during his playing career, threw his own name out there. He has been trying to get back into the NBA as a coach for years.
Barry, who spent four seasons in the ABA and then 10 in the NBA, won a spot on the league's 50th anniversary team.

Canada in contention for World Championship
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Canada routed Italy 6-0 yesterday, showing greater composure and helping its chances of advancing to the quarterfinals of the World Hockey Championship.
Mike Sillinger of the Florida Panthers scored twice for Canada to back the shutout goaltending of Jose Theodore of the Montreal Canadians.
Russia again self-destructed before angry home fans, losing 1-0
The Canadians had backed themselves into a corner, losing opening round games to Norway 4-3 and reigning Olympic and world champions Czech Republic 2-1.
to the former Soviet republic Belarus in its fourth consecutive defeat.
But the Canadians began their long climb back into contention with a 5-1 win against Finland on Friday, Mike Johnson, Steve Sullivan, Peter Schaefer and Adrian Aucoin also scored yesterday for the Canadians, who for the second straight game clicked on the power play and took few penalties.
KENTUCKY DERBY Derby winner poised to take Triple Crown
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — After being bothered by flies on his walk to the paddock, Fusiahi Pegasus took flight in the Kentucky Derby, the first step of what some trainers think will be a Triple Crown journey.
"That's a Triple Crown horse right there," said Jinene Sahadi, trainer of The Deputy, 14th as the second favorite in a field of 19 at Churchill Downs.
"If you ask me, he's a Triple Crown winner," said Alex Hassinger, trainer of Anees, the 1999 2-year-old champion who finished 13th.
Trainer Neil Drysdale, however, refused yesterday to commit Fusaicha Pegasus to the Preakness.
Told that Drysdale was undecided about the May 20 race, trainer D. Wayne Lukas, whose three starters were not among the first 10 finishers, said, "Count Neil in."
Fusaihi Pegasus can get feisty but was a cool professional in becoming the first favorite to win the Derby since Spectacular Bid in
1979. He did kick up his heels in front of the stands on his way to be saddled.
"He got a little hot going over," Drysdale said. "Some files got on him, and he got irritated with the flies. I threw a fly sheet over him and it annoyed him, so I took it off."
The coil finished 11/2 lengths ahead of Aptitude. The time of 2:01 for 11/4 miles tied the sixth fastest in 126 Derbys.

'Huskers trounce 'Hawks
By Rebecca Barlow

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team saw nothing but Cornhusker red last Friday in Lincoln, Neb.
The Conrnhuskers swept the doubleheader, beating the Jayhawks 10-0 in the first game and 4-1 in the second.
It took Nebraska, 44-18 overall and 14-2 in the Big 12 Conference, only four innings to put away the Jayhawks, 30-31 overall and 5-13 in the Big 12, in the first game. The 10-run rule, when a team automatically wins if it leads by 10 after the fifth inning, was employed.
Kansas pitcher Melanie
Dewinter took the loss for Kansas,
giving up six runs and six hits in
two innings. Kelly Campbell
pitched the final two innings,
allowing four runs on four hits.
"We just didn't play well," DeWinter said. "We didn't score, and we weren't aggressive."
Heather Sims singled and then advanced to second base on a single by centerfielder Shelly Musser. Sims then took third on a passed ball and scored on a wild pitch.
Pitcher Sarah Clopton held the 'Husker scoreless until the sixth inning when Jamie Fuente hit a solo home run. Nebraska took the lead two outs later when shortstop Amanda Buchholz belted a three-run home run. Kansas was unable to answer in the seventh.
Kansas will face No. 8 seed Missouri, 31-25 overall and 6-12 in the Big 12, at 5 p.m. Wednesday in Oklahoma City, Okla. The winner will play top-seeded Oklahoma Thursday.
The Jayhawks bounced back in the second game, taking a 1-0 lead in the first inning. Catcher
Clopton pitched all six innings, giving up eight hits and striking out five.
Next up for the 'Hawks is the Big 12 tournament where they are seeded ninth out of 10 teams.
"We had so many expectations of this team leading up to this year, now we just have to forget all of that and put everything we have into the tournament," DeWinter said.
Rowers fight to earn championship ranks
By Shawn Linenberger
By Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas rowing team is racing in arguably its most important event in the program's short varsity history.
After Saturday, a selection committee picks 15 teams to advance to the NCAA Championships May 28 through 31 in Camden, N.J.
The No. 22 Jayhawks, in their fifth year in varsity competition, will compete in the Central Regionals near Oak Ridge, Tenn., Saturday. Some of the teams the Jayhawks will race include No. 8 Michigan, No. 9 Michigan State, No. 13 Ohio State and No. 17 Iowa.
The Jayhawks have a 14-3 record this year, including a win in the Knecht Cup against then-ranked Massachusetts. Their only losses have been to No. 12 USC, No. 16 Washington State and No. 17 Iowa.
Despite close losses to USC and Washington State, the Javahwks
haven't gotten many accolades in the polls, which irritates the Kansas rowers.
Still, the Jayhawks haven't defeated three teams hovering at that 15th and final NCAA spot.
Senior coxswain Nikia Rosenberger said the losses were rough, but the team's outlook was positive.
"We're frustrated we haven't beat them." Rosenberger said. "But we're not down by it because the things that hurt us in races, we know we can fix."
So do all of these factors signal the biggest race in the program's history? Yes, if one asks Rosenberger.
“It’s the most important for us,” Rosenberger said about her and her fellow seniors’ last race. “It’s now or never in Tennessee. There’s no next year to see if we can come back and do it next year. There are no re-rows.”
The Jayhawks hope to contend this weekend, but Rosenberger said the rest of the country's perception of her team depended on Kansas' performance at Centrals.

Best, worst in sports get Joneseys, Wojos
As inevitable as your finals ... As blockbuster as the X-Men movie will be this summer ... It's the third annual Jonesey and Wojo Awards.
In case you're not familiar with them, the Jonesesys are awards of merit I've named after the author, me. Yes, I'm an egomaniac. Deal with it. The Wojos are awards of shame I have named after former Duke point guard and the most annoying man to ever play college basketball, Steve Wojciechowski. And the winners are.
The Baby I Got Your Money, Don't You Worry Jonesey goes to the HAWK Club. At the spring football game, the HAWK Club presented Bob Frederick with a big fat $1,000 check. And it was seriously one of those Bob Barker-sized checks, too. Now the HAWK Club isn't just Helping Athletics Win at Kansas, it's also helping pay its lawyer fees.
The Viva LaFrentz Jonesey goes to Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich. These two fabulous freshman reminded us that not everything from Iowa sucks. Of course, Marcus Fizer and Larry Eustachy reminded us of that, too.
The Jayshocks Jonesey goes to Mark Turgon, a former Kansas basketball player. Turgeon signed on to become the new coach for Wichita State, replacing Randy Smithson. Now maybe we'll see a renewed rivalry between the Shockers and the Jayhawks. Of course, that would require us to play down at Henry Levitt Arena, a place Kansas hasn't been interested in for a while. The sweetest thing about this deal is for Shocker fans. If you know a die-hard Shockers fan, you know that they hate Roy Williams and Kansas basketball. How great is it that one of our own will pull the Shockers from the dumps that they've been in for so long?
The first ever Provisional Jonesey goes to Eric Chenwith. Eric doesn't really deserve a Jonesey because he sucked this year. But we made an agreement that if he comes back and has a great season next year, I'll give him an award this semester and next. Eric is possibly the biggest fan of the Jonesy awards (and definitely the
Sports Columnist

tallest), and he always is asking me what award he's going to get. As important as the Joneseys are to Eric, this ploy might actually work.
And the Wojo winners are ...
The moment of silence Wojo goes to former Kansas State coach Tom Asbury, who created a home court advantage for the Hawks at Bramlage Coliseum, and for former Nebraska coach Danny Nee, who has reportedly moved back to Transylvania. A moment of silence for these coaches who have left our league and made winning so much easier for Kansas.
The Stroke! Stroke! Stroke! Wojo goes to the idiot who has been stalking the rowing team. It's tough enough when your sport doesn't have many fans, but can you imagine how bad it would be if the one fan that comes to your practices wears a ski mask and turns out to be a pervert? Go rent a video, man.
The Too Much Crap Wojo goes to Indiana coach Bob Knight. he's been accused of strangling some players and showing others his used toilet paper. Not only does the General deserve to be fired, he deserves to be institutionalized.
The Slow Down and Think Wojo goes to the people who want to name a strip of highway in Kansas City after Derrick Thomas. Thomas died after an accident in which he was speeding in poor road conditions and lost control of his car. Of the three in the car, only the one wearing his seat belt survived. I'm sorry, but naming a part of a highway after Thomas is like naming your boat after the captain of the Titanic.

Portland, Pippen blaze past Utah in game one
PORTLAND, Ore.— Scottie Pipen sensed the Utah Jazz were fading, and that's when he and the Portland Trail Blazers went on the attack.
The Associated Press
Pippen scored nine of his 20 points during the final nine minutes as the Blazers pulled away for an easy 94-75 victory yesterday in Game 1 of their best-of-seven Western Conference semifinals.
Utah has lost its last 12 playoff games in Portland, dating to the 1991 conference semifinals.
The Jazz were playing on less than two days' rest after strug gling past Seattle in Game 5 of their first-round series Friday night. The Blazers had four days off, and Utah's exhaustion showed.
The Jazz missed nine of their first 10 shots in the fourth quarter
BLAZERS
and shot 33 percent for the period — slightly worse than the 37 percent they shot for the game. The Blazers led 65-61 to start the fourth quarter, but Pipen's aggressiveness helped put the game away.
Karl Malone scored 22 points for Utah despite injuring his left knee on a freak play late in the second quarter. Malone was sitting on the bench when teammate Armen Gilliam dived for a rebound and crashed into Malone's chair. Malone came or
limping slightly in the third quarter, but played the rest of the way.
Sannon Stoundamire added 14 points as six Blazers scored in double figures. Arvydas Sabonis had 14 rebounds and Brian Grant added 10.

'Hawks slide past Wildcats
WWW.KANSAN.COM/SPORTS
Team claims state bragging rights with wins
By Amanda Kaschubi
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
MANHATTAN — After the fifth inning yesterday, the Kansas baseball team's matchup against Kansas State looked as though it would be smooth sailing.
Kansas had scored 11 runs, thanks to an eight-run fifth inning, and junior Pete Smart was throwing a hitless game, allowing the Wildcats only two walks.
So coach Bobby Randall wasn't planning on the outcome of the next few innings.
"We had a no hitter and 11 runs — that's a big lead," he said. "I never would have imagined something would happen with Pete on the mound. Good thing we had a lot of runs scored."
Good thing.
The Wildcats scored 13 runs in the next five innings, but the 'Hawks' run cushion propelled them to a 16-13 win. Kansas won the series 2-1, after taking
"Winning Kansas is a fun title. Do we win a red slipper?"
Bobby Randall
baseball coach
Friday's game 7-5 in extra innings but losing 6-4 Saturday.
Despite not qualifying for the Big 12 Conference tournament, the 'Hawks won bragging rights for best team in Kansas, because they beat both Wichita State and Kansas State this season.
And that title is good enough for second baseman Casev Spanish.
"It's a big deal for all of us," said Spanish, who went four for six yesterday. "For us to win the state is a big step up for us. We got some runs on the board that helped out Pete. He's such a fiery competitor that we know we'll be in every game if he's on the mound. And it's just another day on the mound for him."
However, Smart (7-9) didn't have his best day — he allowed six runs in fewer than two innings after his shutout came to an end in the fifth. After throwing flawless pitches in the first four innings, he lost his mental concentration.
"I had my fastball and my splitter, but then I mentally lost it," he said. "They hit a couple good pitches, but I just lost my focus."
Randall placed blame not on Smart's pitch selections but on overextending his lefty starter.
All that offense earned Kansas a win in its final conference series of the season. And although the 'Hawks didn't earn a tourney berth, they did win a big privilege
Fortunately the Kansas batters supported Smart and reliever Jeff Davis in yesterday's win. First baseman Shane Wedd and designated hitter Brandon Smith combined for six RBI, five hits and four runs. Third baseman Ryan Klocksien laced two doubles, while shortstop Nelson Johnson stole four bases, boosting his total to 39 this season.
"He's never pitched this much in one season," Randall said. "It's been a long week for him—he pitched three innings against (University of Texas) Arlington on Tuesday and another two-thirds innings this Friday. He's just tired."
"Winning Kansas is a fun title," Randall said. "Do we win a red slipper? I wish we got something better."
Baseball notes
Rusty Philbrick tied Kansas' all-time strikeout record Saturday. His seven strikeouts on the day tied him with
Chris Corn for the school career record of 238.
- Kansas continues play when it plays host to UT-Arlington Saturday and Sunday. The 'Hawks will honor their five seniors: Brett Kappelmann, Ryan Schmidt, Duane Thompson, Wedd and Philbrick.

Outstanding senior class recognized at rowing team's sentimental banquet
MISS UNIVERSITY
By Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter
Catloth's prediction was accurate, as awards and speeches were mixed with hugging, tears and laughter at the Lawrence Holiday Inn Holldome Friday evening.
When Kansas rowing coach Rob Catloth welcomed guests and rowers to the fifth annual Kansas Rowing Awards Banquet, he warned that the event could turn into a "love fest."

Awards were presented in various categories, including the recognition of 11 seniors. During the senior recognition, Catloth spoke about attributes each senior brought to the team.
Senior awards put lasting marks on the rowing team academically and athletically. Student support advisor Laura Rudicil presented team academic awards and announced that the Team Academic Awards would become the Class of 2000 Team Academic Awards because of the high academic achievements the seniors had reached. Seniors Risa Petty, Laura Hubert, Abby Rosdahl, Lette Ebbs and Ellen Remsigned academic awards.
Senior coxswain (COX-son) Nikia Rosenberger was named outstanding coxswain for this year and beyond — Catloth announced that the plaque would be presented as the Nikia Rosenberger Outstanding Coxswain Award in the future. Rosenberger has been the Jayhawks' varsity coxswain, the quarterback of rowing, for four years.
"She's been a very hard competitor in her four years," Catloth said of Rosenberger during the awards ceremony. "She's the cornerstone of our team. She's a second coach."
Rosenberger was amazed at having
her name as part of the award in the future.
"I'm still in shock," Rosenberger said. "Being a coxswain has been my life. It's the biggest honor you could possibly get."
Senior Risa Petty presented Tara Lynn with a Most Inspirational Award, trying to fight back tears as she gave Lynn the award.

Media guides dish the dirt on celebrities
How could we not laugh?
now how we can work at the Admissions Office thought it was funny enough to call the newsroom and give us the scoop. Apparently, Eric Chenowith took it upon himself to get to the bottom of this whole Brittney Spears thing.
On hearing a rumor of a limo spotted on campus Friday, Chenowith stormed the Admissions Office demanding to know. "Where's Britney?"
It's true, the thought of our own Eric Chenowith, a Britney Spears groupie — it's just priceless. I immediately began formulating a column based on a scene involving Chenowith and a horde of 12- and 13-year-old girls hopping up and down and screaming to have Britney sign their copies of 'Tiger Beat.' But then two thoughts stopped me cold.
First, I wouldn't want Chenowith to go Manny Dies on me. On me, and second, who am I to talk? Sportswriters are, after all, just a bunch of athlete groupies. We base our existence on following the lives of these celebrities, and some of us like to try and hang with them.
Media guides dish the coolest inside 411 on all those hunky basketball playing studs and sassy soccer kickin' gals. Learn all about the hippest, hottest jocks and jockeytees in their media guide personality profiles.
Media guides allow sportswriters like me to get to know what my fave athletes are really like. Check this out:
Ever wonder who Jeff Boschee's fave cartoon character is? (Gargamel from the *Smurfs*). How about Jennifer Jackson's method to get psyched up for a game? (Eating five orange Tic-Tacs).
Everything you need to know about Lester Earl can be summed up by his favorite "other" sports — wrestling (I'm not sure if that's WCW or WWF) and NASCAR.
Melissa Downing, a midfielder on the soccer team, lists her hobbies as poodle grooming and flossing her teeth. (She also has webbed feet!)
In Lindsay Horner, a forward on the team who goes by Tap, lost all her possessions but one, she would keep her lucky leopard thong. (Strangely enough, Katie Garrity, a goalkeeper, also listed Tap's lucky leopard thong as the one thing she would save).
Bob Schmidt, offensive lineman, wishes he were better at talking to girls (which shouldn't be a problem in the movie of his life, because he would be played by Brad Pitt).
But without a doubt, the coolest athlete at the University another offensive lineman, John Oddonetto, as evidenced by his choice to play him in the movie of his life — porn legend Ron Jeremy (who I'm sure the people at Sports Info must never have heard of).
Media guides are packed with cool stuff like this to keep us sportswriters up to date on the hottest athletes at Kansas. It may seem sometimes like all we do is criticize athletes to try and make names for ourselves, but the truth is that we're just a bunch of groundies.
How else would I know that the one person in history that Chenowith would most like to meet isn't Britnev Spears... it's Jesus Christ?

Track team readies for Big 12 meet
By Sarah Warren
Kansan sportswriter
Two weeks from now, the Jayhawks will conclude their two-season rollercoaster year with a trip to Columbia, Mo., at the Big 12 Outdoor Conference Championships May 19 through 21. There, the team hopes to pull off a showing it deserves after a season of ultra-highs and ultra-lows.
The Kansas track and field team goes into its final meet of the season with motion sickness like none other.
The season saw poor team indoor conference performance — the men finished 10th and the women finished 12th — and the non-renewal of coach Gary Schwartz's contract, but also saw junior All-Americans Scott Russell and Andrea Branson ranked one and two, respectively, in the javelin and pole vault, and the
triumphant return of the Kansas Relays.
And you won't catch Schwartz judging his final season as track coach by the points accrued in Columbia.
If the Jayhawks' final meet before conference — the Life University Series meet, held this past weekend in Atlanta — is any indication, the 'Hawks best chance to earn points comes from the field, as that's what carried the crimson and blue to a second place men's finish and a third place women's showing.
"I'm not one of those people who sits around for hours thinking about where we're going to score," he said. "The kids are going to determine that."
In Atlanta, Kansas swept the men's throwing events as Russell and sophomore Ryan Speers each won two throwing events. Russell won the javelin and the hammer, while Speers out-threw his competitors in the shot put and the discus.
TRACK AND FIELD
"I was just two inches away from qualifying provisionally for the NCAAs in the shot put," Speers said of his 58-foot-10 throw. "The spector (the throwing area) was an incline. Had the field been flat, my throw would have been over 60."
Meanwhile, for the women, sophomore Andrea Bulat won the women's javelin. And Branson, competing at nearby Georgia Tech because of a lack in pole-vault facilities, won the pole-vault competition.

Athletics director Bob Frederick also announced St. Louis based Astro-Play as the provider of the new turf at Memorial Stadium. The turf, which is supposed to arrive by July 4, will cost $345,000. A hybrid of the surface at Memorial now, the new turf is longer and softer than normal turf, resembling grass instead of carpet.
The board also rejected a motion to issue a resolution opposing a proposed 12th game for the 2002 and 2003 football seasons, saying that a 12th game would not be student-athlete friendly. Kansas had already scheduled a 12th game of the '02 season against Northwestern.

Foreign students note differences in traditions of U.S. graduations
By Jill Pittman Special to the Kansan
Most students don't question the process of going to college, graduating and getting a job. However, for some international students who will graduate from the University of Kansas May 21, these assumptions and traditions seem . . . foreign.
"College graduation is the big thing at home," said Juliana Moreira, Petrolina, Pernambuco, Brazil, senior. "Here it's high school."
Moreira attended the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco in Recife, Pernambuco for one year before coming to Lawrenche. She said the traditions of colleges in Brazil made American graduation seem very commonplace.
"They try to make it very glamorous, with ballroom dances and prom dresses where you have to dance with your dad if you're a girl," she said. "They have Mass for graduation, and it's all organized by the school."
Every student is called by name and crosses the stage to receive their diploma, and graduates number in the thousands, Moreira said.
"My mother is blackmailing me," she said with a smile. "She said she'll come if I come home to Brazil."
Laure Losey, Dijon, France, graduate student, said one of the main differences in French and American ceremonies was the apparel.
"I'm the only one in my family with a university degree, and they're very proud of that." Losey said.
See FOREIGN on page 2B
"What shocks everybody is the black attire we have to wear," she said. "To me, it's more like funeral wear. My mother saw us in black and thought it was terrible."
Moreira may not be so lucky.
Her parents attended her undergraduate commencement at the University in 1997. Though she will not walk down the Hill this year, her parents will come for her convoocation at the School of Education May 20.
Tradition trademarks ceremony
Guests to benefit from renovation of the stadium
By Sarah Warren Kansan staff writer
This year, commencement promises to have few differences from those of recent memory.
Yes, the graduates will still walk down the Hill as their mothers and fathers snap roll after roll of film. Yes, it will be nearly impossible to find a hotel room or parking space in Lawrence during the three
days of festivities — May 19-21. Yes, the parties will start as soon as the caps fly through the air.
Rather than forcing change upon tradition, Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, said just a few minor changes would be made to update commencement for the year 2000. These shifts include full use of Memorial Stadium, which has been under construction for the past two years, and the added dimension given by the stadium's video board.
"The stadium is, of course, complete and we will have full use of all of the facilities, rest rooms and concessions," Weinberg said. "The only thing different this year will be the
use of the new video board before, during and after the ceremony."
According to Weinberg, there will be a high number of guests this year because of a large graduating class.
"Close to 4,000 students will walk down the Hill this year," Weinberg said. "And there will be close to 30,000 guests in the stands. Many of the students who graduated in December are returning to walk down the Hill with their class."
And it is University Marshal Stephen Grabow's job to make sure everything runs smoothly when those 4,000 students descend Mount Oread at 2:30 p.m. May 21.
"What the marshal does is preside over convocation, hooding ceremonies and commencement and lead the procession down the Hill," Grabow said. "I introduce all the speakers and basically keep the thing moving."
"Close to 4,000 students will walk down the hill this year."
Jeff Weinberg
Assistant to the chancellor
To do so, Grabow enlists the help of a group of associate marshals to help him keep the ceremony on schedule. In fact, up
until this year, Grabow was an associate marshal himself until he was tapped to become the university marshal, a job that changes hands every three years.
"Basically there are 30 marshals and there are 5,000 people in the cast who have no rehearsal," Grabow said. "The only people who really rehearse are the marshals."
Which makes each commencement a little different, even if tradition is the same.
"There have been times in the past when there was construction going on in Memorial Stadium, but this year will be a traditional commencement in every sense of the word," Weinberg said.

The family and friends that attend graduation might worry about getting a glimpse of their graduate among the other 4,000 seniors, but they may have less to be concerned about this year with the addition of the video board at Memorial Stadium.
After the stadium was renovated last year, a new video board was installed at the south end to display messages and video replays during football games. This year's commencement on May 21 will make good use of the video board by displaying the ceremony live on the big screen.
Gary Hawke, general manager of KUJH-TV, KJHK radio and the Digital Jayhawk, and Mike Lickert, video production coordinator for the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation, will work together to make this added feature possible.
The video board at Memorial Stadium will broadcast graduation ceremonies this year, making it easier for people in the crowd to pick out the graduate they are looking for. The broadcast will also be available on the Digital Jayhawk at www.digitaljayhawk.org. Photo by Jamie Roper/KANSAN
Memorial Stadium has four cameras with the ability to capture various shots of the field and grandstands. One camera sits on top of the press box. Another is located in the grandstands and two are on the field. Lickert said all four cameras would be used but their exact positioning had not been decided.
Lickert said he hoped to direct the cameras at the 50-yard line and at the end of the double line of professors and teachers as the graduates walk through.
"We hope to get a majority of the graduates' faces by using the field cameras," Lickert said.
The press box camera will give a wide overall view of the stadium. One camera will be pointed toward the platform where the speakers will stand to give their speeches.
Lickert said the display would be very similar to that at a football game. The screen will show one shot at a time, comparable to a television show. Lickert will pick the shots that best fit and display them on the video board during the ceremony. He is working with a staff of freelancers and students to make this possible.
Hawke said that another benefit of the video board was that the full ceremony
"I think it's a great idea," said Michelle Brown, Salina senior. "With so many people at commencement, it's hard to see everything, but this will make it much better."
Arne Kirschbaum, Sassnitz, Germany.
would be aired on KUJH-TV at 7 p.m. May 21 and 22. The broadcast also will be available on the Digital Jayhawk, which will allow people around the world to view the ceremony at any time. A tape also will be sold for about $20 and will be available from the School of Journalism after graduation.
senior, agreed that the video board was a good idea.
Kirschbaum said the athletics department is putting its facilities to good use. "It's a nice asset to graduation, and
"It will be exciting to possibly see my face on the big screen," Kirschbaum said. "My parents are coming all the way from Germany just to see me walk down the Hill. It will be nice if they actually get to see me on video rather than hunting me down in a crowd of 5,000 people all wearing the same thing."
everyone will benefit from it during and after the ceremony." Kirschbaum said. "It will be great to have a video as a good memory of commencement."
Fun and entertainment, as well as convenience, are the main reasons for having the video board, Hawke said.
"It will give the audience a better perspective of the whole ceremony," said. "They are able to sit in one seat and see different views without moving."
Graduation parties provide one last time to celebrate
By Elizabeth Benson Special to the Kansan
As seniors say their last goodbyes, many will plan graduation parties to celebrate their years of friendships at the University of Kansas.
Terry Stewart, owner of Southern Accent Catering, is preparing a Southwestern party for her customer.
Southern Accent Catering,
1620 E. 652 Road, is catering a party for a graduate who will be
celebrating with friends and
family at home.
Catering companies already have been preparing for one of their busiest times of the year.
"We are setting up a tent in our customer's backyard with decorations," Stewart said. The catering company will also be serving Mexican food, she said.
Having a party catered allows family and friends to focus on the occasion, while the company takes the worry and stress off of their hands. Stewart said.
Several seniors have made arrangements at local bars to
kick off their celebrations. Louise's West, 1307 W. Seventh, said it was willing to go the extra mile for some seniors.
"I ifwe have people ask, then we will have a graduation party for them," said Cody Adair, Wichita senior and assistant manager of Louise's West.
Most bars don't rent the entire building because owners think it is important to have space available for the public, she said.
"We need a big turnout so business will remain the same as on a typical night," Adair said. "We are willing to accommodate up to 73, which is maximum capacity."
Shea Furlong, Dallas senior, said she planned to have her graduation party for her friends and family at Louise's West. She said she and her friends had shared several memorable nights there.
"West is just the right size for what we are looking for to celebrate with friends and family," Furlong said. "They are allowing us to keep a tab in addition to the
keg, which is not something that they typically do," Furlong said.
Tom Fimmen, Overland Park senior, plans to celebrate with his fraternity brothers at the Delta Chi house, 1245 W. Campus Road.
"We are putting up a large tent in front of the Delta Chi house after graduation," Fimmen said. "Our moms have spent several hours on the plans for the party."
Fimmen said that both alcohol and food would be served at the party.
"It is our last time for people to bid us farewell and to say goodbye for now to close friends." Fimmen said.
Regardless of the alcohol, Fimmen said the party would be a last chance to see his friends before graduating.
"The moms are gathering the food, which will consist of sandwiches, pop and cake, and the dads are in charge of the alcohol," Fimmen said. "The dad's want us to have alcohol, but the moms are not in complete agreement with the idea."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You're smart, lucky and thrifty this year, but your love will take you the furthest. Use it to make a wise choice in May. Move quickly to get the best deal in June. A neighbor teaches you a valuable lesson in July. Rest in August and play in September. Use your wits instead of money for the perfect December surprise. Be respectful in February and win respect.
Aries: Today is a 5.
You need to watch your money. A good deal could become available. You can get more for less if you're willing to shop for bargains. Are you going to spend more, just to look good? If so, guess again. You won't look better by spending more.
Taurus: Today is a 10.
You have been so strong lately, you may have convinced yourself you know it all. Even if you do, thinking that way is a mistake. Instead, let a friend teach you something. Having as wide a perspective as possible is wise, you know.
You may feel stuck between a rock and a hard place. The rules and regulations may be driving you berserk. Luckily for you, you're about to come up with a brilliant idea. This could help you make a fortune, so watch for it and write it down!
Cancer: Today is a 10.
You've got your team's support, and that's marvelous. You're not alone in trying to carry out your scheme. A lot of people do like you! And, that's about as good as it gets.
You may want to make a move that will increase your security. Ask a friend to put in a good word for you. Having somebody else vouch for you could tip the scales in your favor. Don't toot your own horn; that would have the opposite effect.
Leo: Today is a 5.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
Your Cancer friend can be insightful, if somewha confronting. If one gives you unsolicited advice today, listen carefully. This may not be pleasant, but it could save you money. Be nice even if you don't feel like it.
Virgo: Today is a 10.
You're attracting a lot of attention. This might inspire you to make a few changes, too. Your work environment is most likely where this transformation will happen. You could get some nice compliments, too. You earned them, so let them in!
Your intuition is working well again. If you have been negotiating an agreement with someone, ask for an older person's advice. The compromise you've both sought is nearby, but an objective person might have to see it.
Libra: Today is a 5.
2
Capricorn: Today is a 9.
Aauarius: Today is a 6.
This is a good day to discuss a delicate subject. You may have tried to keep this secret, but don't bother. Once you bring it into the open, you may discover that your partner knew all along. This con fession won't be as hard as you thought.
男女
Pisces: Today is a 10.
The people you work with will be eager to follow your lead, especially if it's for a good cause.
Need more helping hands? More money in the account? Both of those are available. All you have to do is ask.
You've been working hard and studying. You may have qualified for a promotion, without even knowing about it. That's the best way to get it, of course. You have an advantage when they ask you!

More than 51 percent of all University of Kansas students receive a form of financial aid, and the average graduating senior leaves school $17,863 in debt, according to the 1999

payments begin when a student leaves school. No interest is added for nine months, but then a 5 percent annual interest rate is added.
"I already have a job with an architecture firm in Kansas City, Missouri." Leyendeker said. "I am not worried."
For some seniors with loans, paying them back will not be a problem right away.
Brenda Maigaard, associate director of Student Financial Aid, said the University offered services to graduating seniors with
Other forms of financial aid that don't have to be repaid are scholarships and grants. The two most common student loans are the Federal Direct Student Loan and the Federal Perkins Student Loan.

Federal Direct Student Loan payments begin after a student leaves school. A variable interest rate is on the loan, but it is never higher than 8.25 percent.
With loan payments due soon, Boyer said she knew the importance of finding a job.
Jennifer Boyer, El Dorado senior, has student loans to help pay for college.
"It will be a hassle for me," Boyer said. "The payments will have to be figured into my monthly expenses."
"The better job I get, the less of a hassle the loans will be," she said. "If I start out making a decent salary, there won't be a great problem."

Foreign students consider future plans

Though she smiles, the statement is not much of a joke. Moreira is unsure what lies ahead, and her family's wishes play a big part in the decision.
"I got a job offer this week in New Delhi, India. It's crazy," she said. "It's not that I don't love Brazil — I do love Brazil, but Brazil's always going to be for me."
Much like many other graduates, Moreira is not yet able to support herself financially. Because of her international situation, finding employment is complicated, and she has had to look internationally for jobs.
In contrast to Moreira's situation, Losey's post-graduation plans are stable. She has been a U.S. citizen since 1988 and has been married to a Wichita native since 1984. Losey, her husband
"I can't afford the plane ticket to India; I need my parents' help, but they don't know," she said. "They really want me to come home to Brazil. The future's really up in the air right now."
and her daughter live in Lenexa, where she teaches French full time and Spanish part time at Shawnee Mission Northwest High School.
Despite differences in plans, Moreira and Losey said they felt the same on one point.
"Even though I am an American citizen," Losey said, "I feel I will always be a foreigner in this country."
Moreira said, "I'm always going to be the foreigner, no matter what."
Because they have seen alternatives, both have a greater appreciation of the opportunities offered by attending Kansas.
"I really feel that in this country, if you're not lazy, you can make it." Losey said. She explained that the education system in France was more selective, and that even those who earn a degree upon graduation face a 15 to 16 percent unemployment rate nationwide. Losey, who returned to graduate school as a mother, also said she appreciated the opportunities for nontraditional students to earn a degree.
"It's more expensive to go to school here, but
here you have the opportunity to go to college in your early 30s, which is very difficult to do in France," she said. "I'm not even sure it's possible."
Moreira's experience with the Brazilian education system has helped her appreciate KU as well.
"In Brazil, teachers will do everything they can to give a bad grade," she said.
It can even be a challenge to earn the opportunity to get those bad grades, she said, because of difficult entrance exams.
"I have friends that have been trying to get into college for three or four years," she said. "In a way it is a very middle-class dream because not everyone can go to school."
Realizing that "middle-class dream" will be a welcome relief, and Moreira expressed sentiments about graduation that can be understood worldwide.
"I'm so ready right now," she said. "Ready to go home for weekends and not have homework—not think!"
Credit cards leave seniors with real-world problems
By Craia Hartman
Special to the Kansan
Justin Harrington, Topeka senior, didn't plan to move home after he graduated.
Credit cards can be temptations to college students strapped for cash. But for some University of Kansas seniors, that temptation has landed them in a world of problems.
"I have been on my own for four years now." Harrington said. "The last thing I planned on doing after college was moving in with my parents."
Harrington faces the same problem many KU seniors confront near graduation — How do you get rid of credit card debt?
"I owe almost $6,000 on four different credit cards," Harrington said. "They just added up so fast."
Harrington said he initially planned to have only one credit card, which was to be used only for emergencies.
so he could pay off his credit cards. He added that because all of his cards had at least a 19 percent interest rate, paying them off would be more difficult.
Harrington said the increasing bills started making it difficult to pay his other monthly bills. He said that several times he paid one creditcard bill with one of his other cards.
Harrington said he would be forced to live at home for a while after he graduated to save money
"It might take me some time to pay them off, but there is no way around it." Harrington said.
"My mistake was that I started using it for food, new tennis shoes, and worst of all, bar tabs," Harrington said. "From then on my financial situation got worse and worse."
Jeff McCoy, Overland Park senior, said he also had accumulated a fairly large amount of credit-card debt throughout his college career.
"It all started on Wescoe Beach when I applied for a credit card just so I could get a free candy bar," McCoy said. "When I got the card in the mail a few weeks later, I treated it like it was free money, but of course it wasn't."
VISA®
MasterCard
McCoy said that he had only one other credit card in addition to his first but that they were both at their maximum limits.
"What is really killing me is that I am only able to pay the minimum payment each month," McCoy said. "The debt just is not going away."
McCoy said he was unsure how he would handle his payments after he graduated but that it would probably make his paychecks seem smaller.
However, students who want to get rid of credit card debt have several options. Organizations such as Consumer Credit Counseling Services offer free
help to people trying to pay off credit cards. They will send proposals to creditors to get better terms for debtors, such as reduced monthly payments and reduced or eliminated interest and late fees. Quite often they can consolidate all of credit-card payments into one easy monthly payment.
Sue Rocha, a representative from Commerce Bank, said that the bank directed all delinquent customers to Consumer Credit Counseling Services. If the customers are accepted into the program, Commerce Bank lowers interest
rates and stops all penalty pricing against the customers. Once three consecutive payments are received, Commerce Bank reconfigures customers' three-month history to show they are working with the debt service. As long as the customer maintains payments, Commerce Bank tries to lower payments if necessary, she said.
Rocha said that customers in the program would be reported to the credit bureau as being with Consumer Credit Counseling Services rather than as being delinquent.

Area businesses prepare for graduation weekend
By Amber Huntzinger
By Amber Hummingger Special to the Kansan
As graduation approaches and students scramble with last-minute preparations for commencement, area businesses welcome the graduation crowd with advertisements, specials and plenty of graduation necessities.
On graduation weekend, which this year begins May 19, Lawrence usually is bombarded with people from across the country. Businesses open their doors to the crowds, hoping to profit from the extra shoppers.
"The revenue helps because it is a slow time of year," said Cinda Garrison, owner of Prairie Patches, 821 Massachusetts St. "It is important for spring sales."
Area restaurants also are affected by the visitors who pack their businesses every year during graduation time. For the weekend, restaurants boost their staffs, bulk up on preparation work and get ready to serve drove of hungry people.
Kris Kaminsky, assistant manager at Mass. Street Deli, 941 Massachusetts St., said the restaurant usually had to deal with customer increases in big groups.
Fifi Piden, owner of Fifi's, 925 Iowa St., said that graduation was the restaurant's busiest period, with the exceptions of New Year's and
Valentine's Dav.
This time of year, many students are getting ready to head out of town after graduation.
"They pack up to leave and come for breakfast," Eric Cleveland, general manager at Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St. said.
To attract visitors, businesses place advertisements geared toward graduation in local newspapers and display their graduation products and specials.
Megan Morris, an employee at Johnny's Tavern, 401 N 2nd St., said the establishment usually had some drink specials.
Chad Wilkerson, manager at Jayhawk Spirit, 935 Massachusetts St., said that the business took out advertisements both in the Laurence Journal-World and the Kansan.
Paden also said she usually placed ads in both papers and also urged people to call Fifi's for reservations if they had not already.
Prairie Patches sets up displays with graduation gift ideas that can take students into the real world or serve as moments.
Garrison said, "We try to get parents in and to remember where we are."
Because advertising doesn't always reach the right audience, Prairie Patches is starting Jayhawk Heaven, an online store. Garrison
said she hoped Jayhawk Heaven would be a good reference for the out-of-town graduation crowd in the future.
"We sell many graduation gifts because we do a lot of custom things." she said.
Wilkerson said that Jayhawk Spirit sold graduation necessities such as diploma holders and announcements, but that gift items such as frames and T-shirts also were popular this time of year.
Marian Wroczynski, manager at Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, said that the store sold caps and gowns throughout the year, as well as souvenir tassels and autograph books. She said Jayhawk souvenirs were the store's trade.
To prepare for the increase in big groups, Mass, Street Deli may put its cheesecakes on sale along with a new sandwich that feeds five people.
Ryan Rodenberg, co-owner of the Brown Bear Brewing Co., 729 Massachusetts St., said that the establishment played host to many private graduation parties, and that booked bands for the parties upon customer request.
Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St, caters to alumni by putting an "old favorite" on special.
Fifi's offers a special menu.
Paden said, "It is condensed for us to serve people faster."
Few vacancies remain at area hotels
By Jaclyn Johnson
Special to the Kansan
"We've been booked for about four months," said Judy Price, manager of Westminster Inn, 2525 W. Sixth St.
There's no room at the inn.
Anyone trying to get a hotel room in Lawrence for graduation weekend probably will be turned away.
Running out of rooms seems to be a common problem at hotels throughout Lawrence. Some guests of graduation will stay in Topeka, Kansas City or with graduates during graduation because of the shortage.
"We've been booked for at least three months, and we've been directing people to Kansas City and Topeka for that weekend," said Mary Baxka, manager of the Bismarck Inc. 1130 N. Third St.
"I think my parents are going to stay in Topeka because everything out here is full," said Jay Jones, Independence senior, said.
Making reservations early, as much as a year in advance, seems to be the only way to get a room in Lawrence. Hotels in Lawrence will accept reservations for next year's commencement ceremony as soon as this year's commencement ends. Next year's ceremony is scheduled for May 20.
"People start making reservations a year in advance," said Chris Graves, manager of the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St.
"My parents are smart," said Yani Sherar, Philadelphia senior. "They made reservations at the beginning of the school year so they are staying in town."
Most hotels raised their prices in expectation of the
flood of people coming for the celebrations.
The Westminster Inn's prices rose from $61 to $71, and the Eldridge Hotel increased from $100 to $157. Those increases are typical of the price changes being made for the special weekend.
"Rates go up for the weekend," said Beth Nichols, manager of the Hampton Inn, 2300 W. Sixth St. "We know people have to stay and are willing to pay just about anything."
Graves also said that it seemed everyone was willing to pay the higher prices.
Nichols said, "Last year was a mess, people were walking in at the last minute wanting a room."
Jody Flaugher, manager of the Super 8 Motel, 515 McDonald Dr., said, "We already people who are making reservations for next year's graduation."
People who don't have a room yet still have some hope. Sometimes there are a few last minute cancellations, but they get snatched up quickly.
"Last year, we had some cancellations on the last day, but they were filled the same day." Graves said.
"We are usually full every weekend, but we filled up a year early for graduation weekend," said Rochelle Bailev, manager of the Halcyon House.
A bed and breakfast also is an alternative to a hotel or motel. They have fewer rooms, and generally fill up more quickly. The Halcyon House Bed and Breakfast, 1000 Ohio St., and the Victorian Veranda Country Inn, 1431 N. 1900 Road, are two Lawrence options.
Karen Walker, Victorian Veranda employee, said,
"Rates go up, and we have a minimum three-night stay for the weekend, but that doesn't seem to faze anyone for graduation weekend."
The University has made arrangements and accommodations to handle the large number of people expected to arrive May 21, graduation day. Park and ride arrangements have been made for the public. And for those not able to get to graduation, arrangements to see it at home also have been made. The campus television station, KUJH, will broadcast the ceremony live on channel 73.
Ellsworth to house graduates' guests
By David Winbush
Special to the Kansan
Graduation brings thousands of people to Lawrence to see their children, relatives and friends make that monumental walk down the Hill. To help solve some of the overcrowding problems, the University of Kansas is turning Ellsworth Residence Hall into a temporary hotel.
Because all the Lawrence hotels are full for the weekend, the University has created another possibility for families and friends. Ellsworth Hall will be available for families and guests to stay in Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, May 19-21, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
Many students said that the residence hall accomodations would be useful if they had know about the option. Rooms in Ellsworth have been available during graduation for 12 years, and organizers said that the option had helped to alleviate some accommodation problems.
Matt Ostmeyer, Oberlin senior, said his family was not staying in Ellsworth, but he said they might have considered it if they had known of the offer.
"My family have had reservations at the Ramada for a while," he said. "I don't know, maybe they would have used Ellsworth if they had known about it. It would have saved them money."
Rooms are still available in Ellsworth Hall.
"All of Elsworth is available, but so far this is probably going to be the lightest turnout in the all the eight years I've been here," said Randy Timm, student housing conference coordinator.
Timm said he thought that the small number of reservations was because of the increase in the number of hotels in Lawrence.
Ellsworth will be the only hall available. Rates are $36 per night for double occupancy and $29 for single occupancy. Rates include one meal in the Ekdahl Dining Commons for each night. Additional meals may be purchased.
reservations should be made by phone in advance by calling Randy Timm at (785) 864-4560.

Past graduation ceremonies known for traditions, pranks
By Luke Wetzel Special to the Kansan
In its 127 years of commencement ceremonies, the University of Kansas has had a colorful history of pomp, circumstance, tradition and even disruption. And it all began with a dancing skeleton.
been borrowed from the zoology department.
The prank took place during the first commencement in June 1874, when graduation was a several-day affair. According to University Archives, students lowered a skeleton over the speaker's head and made it appear to dance while the band played. The skeleton had
The tradition of walking down the Hill began in 1924, when the University began conducting commencement in Memorial Stadium. Previously, commencement was in a giant tent for lack of a building large enough to hold 3,400 students and spectators.
At the 1974 commencement, students Jerry Meinert and Dennis Smarker streaked into fame. Just as Chancellor Archie Dykes finished his speech, they cast off their gowns and ran the length of the football field, buck naked. They
were arrested by police and taken to jail where they spent a few hours before posting $250 ball. Charges against the students were dropped.
Probably the biggest disruption in KU commencement history came when a 1980 banner-waving display led to the arrest of 11 students. "Get out of South Africa," read one student's banner, protesting an $8 million investment by the KU Endowment Association in the then-apartheid nation. When the students refused to turn the banner over, seven police officers confiscated it. Other students in the north end of the stadium simultaneously unfurled a banner that said "Help, we're being arrested." KU policy forbids display of political banners at nonpolitical events.
December 1983 graduates, the self-dubbed "Class of 1983 1/2" staged their own unofficial commencement ceremony. Adorned in bathrobes and baseball caps, the fall graduates were handed unofficial diplomas congratulating them on being the first December class to walk down the hill. Fall graduates had grown tired of not having their own ceremony, according to an article in the Laurence Journal-World.
Benches, sundial are options for senior gift
By Courtney Craigmile Special to the Kansan
As graduation day approaches,the graduating class of 2000 must decide how it wants to be remembered.
"We want to do something more because we are the class of 2000," said Jonathan Alt, Winnetka, Ill., senior and class president.
The senior class doesn't formally announce its class gift until the Chancellor's Lunch on May 21, Commencement Day. However, it has narrowed the gift selection down to two choices, Alt said. This year's ideas include benches near Potter Lake or a sundial serving as a time capsule donated to the class of 2050.
Donna Neuner, director of membership services for the Kansas Alumni Association, said the class gifts had a lot of significance.
"Not all these gifts last forever, but they are important at the time." Neuner said.
bronze Jayhawk that sits in front of Strong Hall, given by the class of 1956. Other gifts include the bronze University seal in front of Budig Hall (1997) and the landscaping and plaque at the Lied Center (1992).
The selection of the class gift begins the first semester of a class' senior year and becomes formalized during the second semester. Alt said.
Alt said money was always a big factor in choosing class gifts. Barbara Ballard, vice chancellor for student affairs said money came from donations to the class gift fund, which was done by checking the optional fees box during registration.
rerhaps the most famous class gift is the
The total fund ranges from $8,000 to $12,000 yearly. Ballard said she advised the senior class to look at gifts between $500 and $8,000, enabling them to leave about $2,000 for the next class.

Neuner said money shortages prevented some classes from leaving a gift. Often these classes will donate a gift in conjunction with a class reunion.

KU graduation less important than high school for some
By Jay Ferguson
Special to the Kansan
"My parents didn't even walk down the hill when they graduated," Cameron said.
It may seem odd, but some graduating seniors say they view their high school graduations as more important than commencement at the University of Kansas.
Spencer Cameron, Danville, Calif., senior, said he didn't know if he was going to walk down the hill. He said the ceremony was not important to him or his parents, who will be in Lawrence during the weekend of graduation.
For some students, the college ceremony doesn't have as much prestige these days.
"The ceremony is not going to be that special to me or probably even my family," Coulson said.
Other students have different opinions about why the ceremony means so little to them. Chris Coulson, Mission Hills senior, said he believed that walking down the hill was just taking care of the formalities.
However, some to-be graduates consider the ceremony to be the largest leap of their lives.

Karen Ebel, Hiawatha senior, said that college graduation was more important to her because she had to work hard for her degree, unlike her high school diploma. Even though she views college as the most important ceremony, she said her family thought her high school graduation was more important.
Ebel said that more of her family members attended her high school graduation than will be here on May 21.

Commencement ceremony is a team effort
By Rachel Fox
Special to the Kansan
Getting ready for graduation can be an exhausting task. Imagine all the University has to do to make sure the final march, is a grand march.
"KU is known for our smooth and timely commencement ceremony, especially without a full practice," said Jeff Wienberg, assistant to the chancellor.
To ensure a smooth ceremony, a graduation committee meets year round to discuss problems and changes.
"Everything gets done, everyone on the committee is someone who has been with graduation for at least
three or four years," Wienberg said.
"These people are in charge of making sure the job is done or finding someone else to get the job done."
Weinberg said that all the duties happened automatically because people were used to getting the job done.
Some of the busiest people on graduation day are the people on the phones at the KU Information office in the Kansas Union.
"That is the busiest day for us," said Susan Elkins, director of KU Info. "If anything happens we are the first ones told because everyone calls us to find out information."
Elkins said the information line played a vital role in directing peo
ple to all sorts of places.
"We are asked where to land planes, alternate driving routes to Lawrence, and most importantly timing and weather changes," she said. "We even get calls from graduates asking where they can get their gown because they forgot it, or from teachers asking where they are supposed to line up."
The Public Safety Office and Parking Department also will be really busy.
"Besides worrying about heat and the elderly visitors, traffic control is our biggest job," said Chris Keary, assistant director of public safety.
Parking Department employees agree that the day gets very long
dealing with a lot of traffic.
"Commencement is a different but pleasant experience, it's fun but long," said Rita Jordan, field and office supervisor.
Those three departments are very busy for one day. But one department spends all year getting ready for the big day. Facilities Operations spends the whole year planning and preparing the stadium and campus for the commencement ceremony.
Bence Williams, assistant director of administration and personnel of facilities operations, said employees groom the campus and make sure that all equipment is working properly for the ceremony.
Economy provides healthy job market for graduates
Bv Jared Webb
Special to the Kansan
Spring graduates should have little trouble finding a job if they take advantage of a healthy job market, said Gall S. Rooney, director of University Career and Employment Services.
College graduates have enjoyed an excellent job market because of the good economy, and she said there should be no change for this year's graduating class.
"There are a lot of opportunities out there," Rooney said. "If they do their work and come to us to help them, they will find a job."
According to a report released by the National Association of Colleges and Employers last fall, overall hiring is expected to increase by 14.5 percent. The entire job market has seen an
increase, but the service and technical industries are seeing the biggest increase, Rooney said, adding that service-industry hiring was expected to increase by 17.5 percent.
Amanda Romek, Englewood, Colo., graduate student in the School of Business, will receive a master's degree in accounting and informational systems. She said she had had a job lined up since last August.
"It was not very hard for me to get the job," she said. "It stemmed from the internship I had last summer."
Kim Wilson, Independence senior and chemical engineering student, said the job market for chemical engineers was very good.
"I will probably have a job after graduation," she said. "I am not too worried about it. Not to sound arrogant, but I don't believe it will be a
problem."
Some students become worried once graduation grew near, and they do not have a job lined up yet, Rooney said. She said one of the biggest problems she had was that students came in panicked, thinking there were no positions out there for them.
"The problem is not that there are not any jobs out there," she said. "The problem is the students do not have a plan and have not done any work to research companies that they may be interested in working for."
Lisa Leroux-Smith, director for Business and Engineering Career Services, said problems many students had when looking for a job were the lack of focus as to what they wanted to do.

As graduation approaches, most seniors are preparing for the big day. However, some University of Kansas seniors are busy making other plans.
By Ayisola Abegunde
Kansan correspondent
Athletes pick sports or graduation
Members of the softball, golf, tennis and track teams are busy planning for the biggest week of their seasons — the Big 12 Conference and NCAA tournament week.
The tournament dates clash with the May 21 commencement ceremony, which poses a dilemma for some senior athletes who are forced to choose between walking down the hill and their teams.
tournaments are May 18-28.
Golf and softball tournaments are May 17-21, Big 12 track starts May 19, and the men's and women's tennis
Ryan Maier, Winfield senior and men's tennis team member, said it was a difficult choice.
"I would probably miss the commencement if we go to the NCAA tournament," Maier said. "I feel it's a big thing after all the work I've put in the past four years. Tennis is a big
Other seniors, however, said the choice was not as hard.
"From most people I've talked to, the commencement is an all-day event, and I would rather have my family and relatives watch me at the most important meet of the year than spend the whole day on campus," sald Kevin McGinn, Emporia senior and track team member.
thing too, because I've also put in a lot of work."
Track and field coach Gary Schwartz said he wished the athletes didn't have to choose.
"Personally, I think it's a real struggle for me to have our kids miss graduation." Schwartz said. "Kevin is going to make the final in the 1,500 meters, and that's on Sunday. It's a frustration to me. I hate to ask the kids to make that sacrifice."
However, some athletes, such as golfer Jake Istnick, will be able to participate in both the commencement and their athletic event.
"We will be playing that weekend, but we'll be back just in time for the commencement," said Istnick, Tulsa, Okla., senior.
Nooner, Bradford to make final farewell
By Selena Scott
Special to the Kansan
Being a men's basketball player may make it especially difficult to graduate in four years.
But players Nick Bradford, an economics major, and Terry Nooner, an African-American studies major, have beaten the odds. The two seniors will take four years to get their degrees and will graduate May 21.
Nooner said graduation was especially meaningful to him because he was only the second person to graduate in his family and the first to do so while playing a sport .
"A student athlete can graduate in four years if they take 16 hours per semester," said Dino Bell, degree and career counselor at the Athletics Department. "But with travel constraints and practice schedules, it gets hard to do."
"I am trying to set an example for the younger children in my family to show that they can do it," he said.
Nooner said that because he was one of the first in his family to graduate,he was motivated to finish school and make everyone proud.
Bradford said he was inspired by the ... and father to finish school. He said that some
names he felt like giving up, but that he focused on getting past the obstacles instead of dwelling on them.
"It is crazy and it feels good to know that I have put all that work in and have finished college," he said. "It feels real good to accomplish my goal of graduating from college."
A. BELLEAU
Nooner and Bradford said basketball had been a very important part of their lives.
"Basketball has really taught me time management, how to be on time and how to communicate with people from different walks of life." Nooner said.
But the game of basketball might not b tral in their lives after graduation.
"I am not playing bass
nooner said. "I am just
ready to start something
new by moving to Dallas,
finding a job and taking on
a new challenge."
Bradford said he would know this summer whether he would continue to play.
Nooner and Bradford both will take their final bows while walking down the Hill, saying farewell to Kansas basketball and to the University of Kansas.

Seniors evaluate time involvement at college
By Cherie Schulman Special to the Kansan
As graduation nears for University of Kansas seniors, some ponder what they might have done differently during their time at college.
"Looking back, as graduation is coming up, I wish I had made more use of all this University has to offer," said Allison Deutch, Des Mines, Iowa, senior. "This school had so many wonderful speakers and SUA events that I know would have helped me out in the long run if I had only just attended."
Jodie Ednick. Dallas senior, agreed.
"I would have gotten more involved on campus," she said. "After four years here, I have learned that one opportunity leads to another."
Some seniors said they had regrets about how much effort they put into studying during their freshman year.
"I if I had only put more effort into my basic classes freshman year, I might not have been so lost in my upper-level courses," said Tyra Leopold, Leavenworth senior.
She said she didn't know how to study and should have taken notes in lecture classes. Cooper also said she should have paid close better attention to her professors.
Linda Korr, Deerfield, Ill., senior, said, she would have made adjustments in her major and faculty guidance.
"If I had to start over again I would have chosen a major outside of liberal arts and changed my adviser too," Korr said. "I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in the future until it was too late to change majors."
She said that, as a senior, she wondered what she would have chosen if she had spent more time choosing her career, rather than rushing into a decision.
Deutch was not concerned about her major.
"Stressing over a major was a complete waste of my time," Deutsch said. "If I should have worried less about what I wanted to be in the future and paid more attention to enjoying my college experience."
Seniors also reflected on the classes they had taken.
"I wish I hadn't have left all of my major courses for my senior and junior years, because I feel like I am never going to be done with school." Korr said.
"As I know that I am getting ready to walk down that hill soon, I am amazed that I have come this far," she said. "I made so many mistakes while I was here, but now that it is almost over, I know that I have gained experience that I will never forget."
Graduation expenses can mount for seniors
The price of graduation can be overwhelming.
By Leah Glaser Special to the Kansan
Seniors who plan to participate in commencement must purchase or rent their caps and gowns. The cap and gown price for a student receiving a bachelor's degree is $20 at the Kansas Union. The Jayhawk Bookstore offers caps and gowns for $18.95. The rental price is $13 for the gown, $4 for the cap and $3 for the tassel at the Union.
In addition to the cap and gown, seniors also have the option to purchase announcements. This can increase the cost of graduation. Sara Murphy, Crystal Lake, Ill., senior, said it could be pricey to send out announcements.
"I had to make a list of the people who deserved announcements." Murphy said.
Personalized announcements at the Union Bookstore start at $37.40 for 25, while traditional announcements start at $1.10 for 10.
The Jayhawk Bookstore offered coupons for announcements until the end of April.
Jennifer Johnson, Overland Park senior, agreed that the cost to graduate could be high.
"Just when you think you're done, you need to spend more money," she said.
the money. The Alumni Association also offers a free six-month membership and the option to join at a discount rate of $25 for three years. The regular rate for three years is $40.
Shelia Immel, senior vice president of membership, said the benefits were wonderful.
A membership keeps you connected and informed with the University of Kansas," she said.

Oldest,youngest graduates helped by family support
Rv Kritie Tatke
Special to the Kansan
Reaigan Fisher and Lucinda White do not consider themselves unusual graduates. Fisher likes to dance and travel. White enjoys playing golf, reading murder mysteries and bowling. But they are different.
FILIPPIA LOPEZ
On May 21, Fisher, 20, and White, 58, will walk down the hill as the youngest and oldest members of the graduating class of 2000.
Fisher, Wichita senior, has been ahead of the game since elementary school when she skipped fifth grade. After graduating from Andover High School at age 17, she attended Oklahoma Christian University in Oklahoma City for one semester. Then she transferred to the University of Kansas to concentrate on broadcast journalism.
Fisher said that she never planned to graduate early.
"I just took classes during high school and always took classes over the summer," she said. "I always did better with more hours and I never dropped a class."
White, like Fisher, attended other colleges before coming to the University—six, actually—including Johnson County Community College, Georgia State University, Avila College in Kansas City, Mo., and the University of Minnesota.
White also had been a KU student. She took one semester of classes at the University before she met and married her husband when she was 18 years old. Because they moved a lot, White took classes part-time for her elementary and middle school education degree.
Five years ago, White and her family returned to Lenexa. A semester later she resumed classes at the University.

"Most of my experiences have been very good," White said. "Most of the teachers in education really encourage the students."
White and Fisher said they enjoyed their time at Kansas.
White said that even though she was older than most of the other students, her teachers helped to make her feel comfortable.
Fisher credited Adrienne Rivers, associate professor of journalism and her adviser, with helping to make her time worthwhile.
"She just helped keep me focused and kept me informed of my options," Fisher said. "She has not only been a professor and mentor but also a good friend."
100 YEARS OF CHILDREN'S WORLD
Fisher also said her mother, who graduated from college in three years, and her father helped her.
Fisher and a group of students went to Ghana with Rivers last summer for a study-abroad program.
"Mom helped me stay on track and stay organized," Fisher said. "She was a pretty big influence on my education. Mom and Dad both have given me a lot of encouragement, love and support."
But Nicole Edwards, Wichita junior and Fisher's friend, said Fisher didn't need much help.
"I've never met anyone with such determination," Edwards said. "She always stays on task. When I'm ready to quit, she keeps going."
White said that her family also helped

her through college. She said that she came from a long line of KU alumni, including her husband, father, brother, sister and daughter.
"My husband has been very supportive and encouraging, and Mom always encouraged me to finish," White said. "She was a great KU fan and supporter. It has been kind of a life-long dream for the family that I would finish at KU."
After graduation, Fisher has an internship in Los Angeles at a Good Morning America bureau.
Fisher said she also planned to pursue acting in Los Angeles and eventually hoped to end up at a news station.
White said she might study computer science.
Korean War veteran gets second chance to walk down the Hill
By Adriane Roberts
Special to the Kansan
It was 50 years ago when Herbert Cohen graduated from the University of Kansas, but something was missing in his life.
"It just didn't feel right." Cohen said. "But I thought I could graduate in 1951."
He didn't take the traditional walk down the Hill in 1950. Cohen, who lives in Springfield, Mo., was an accounting major and graduated from the School of Business. He could have walked down the Hill, but he had to finish summer school.
When the Korean War began in 1950, he was drafted into the Army Reserves for active duty. This caused him to miss the graduation ceremony. Once the war ended in 1953, Cohen didn't think about returning for graduation.
Cohen said he thought now was the time to return to the University.
"I came back home to Kansas City and got with my wife." John said.
"I felt that something was missing," he said. "This is my 50th anniversary."
Cohen has arranged to join the graduates in the University's 128th annual commencement May 21.
"KU has meant a lot to me," Cohen said. "Whatever I got out of life, I owe to KU."
Cohen will not walk down the Hill alone. He asked his roommate from college to walk down with him. Portor Mitchell, who lives in Denver, agreed to join him because he always wished to
A. R. WILSON
Cohen: Graduated 50 years ago but couldn't participate in ceremony
because he also missed walking down the Hill.
"I thought it was important to Herbert that I go," said Mitchell, who also went to high school with Cohen. "Most of us have a soft spot in our hearts for the school we received our degree from."
"Two former 1950 graduates coming back shows that the walk down the Hill is important," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor. "Walking down the Hill has been here at KU over many generations."
Cohen has been a part of the University for many years. He has season tickets to football games and tries to make it to the basketball games.
Cohen was not the only one who never got to walk down the Hill.
"I was a rain-out grad in 1981," said Jennifer Sanner, senior vice president for communications and editor of Kansas Alumni magazine. "We had to have commencement in Allen Fieldhouse."
Cohen said walking down the Hill would be very emotional for him.
"I can't describe the emotions," he said. "I expect to be choked up once she start the Rock Chank chant."
