Meghan Bainum More time to elect class credit option Beginning this fall, students will have more time to decide if they want to take a class for credit/no credit instead of a letter grade. Students must fill out a form for credit/no credit in their dean's office during the fifth or sixth week of a 15-week semester course and during the third week of an eight-week course. For courses of other lengths, the form must be completed during the week in which 40 percent of the class meetings have taken place. If a course is less than a week long, credit/no credit must be elected before the first class meeting. Under the old policy, students had to make a choice during the third or fourth week for a 15-week course and the second week for a summer course. The old policy is listed in the Fall 2000 timetable, but University Council approved the new policy in the spring semester and Chancellor Robert Hemenway gave final approval in June. Eric Snider, Wichita senior, said he was pleased with the policy change. "The new policy gives students a better chance to feel out their classes and make a decision on what they want to do," he said. - Karen Lucas Richard Morrell.

Recent campus growth was the main reason for Clark's promotion. He will help direct that expansion into the new century.

That would have increased the previous year's 34 percent average by 55 percent. The regional numbers in the annual Kids Count data book do not agree with the total, which said more than 53 percent of sixth, eighth, 10th- and 12th-graders surveyed in 1999 had consumed alcohol in the previous 30 days. The actual number of students in the state reporting alcohol use in the 1999 survey was closer to 39 percent a rise of less than 15 percent The error was apparently caused by a mix-up in files. "We're really disappointed because we've been doing this a long time and we work very hard to ensure accuracy," said Tom Gregoire, associate professor at Ohio State University's School of Social Work. Other categories in the book appear to be correct. The data in the book were generated by the Southeast Kansas Education Service Center in Greenbush. The center distributes a "Kansas Communities that Care Survey" to school districts each year, reaching a total of about 55,000 students. In the binge-drinking category, 20 percent of the people surveyed reported consuming five or more alcoholic beverages in a row in the two weeks before the survey.

This lot, designated the A.P. lot, will be available for scholarship hall students and Alumni Center staff. 864-8995 by 5 p.m. on Wednesday.

Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN New garage lottery to select spots Bv Rob Pazell writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The fate of some University of Kansas students' parking will be decided by a draw from a hat. The new parking garage east of Memorial Stadium opened 818 new spaces Aug. 7 for faculty, visitors and the luckiest of students who apply. Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking services, said a lottery system would decide which 200 students would get a permit to park in the new garage, which is located at 13th and Mississippi streets to the west and Oread Avenue to the east. One hundred and one spaces have been allotted to faculty on a first-come-first-serve basis. Five hundred spaces are open to anyone on a pay-by-the-hour system. Hultine said the garage would benefit students who sometimes have trouble finding spots in the lower lots by the stadium. "Normally departments have visitors come in and buy user passes, which takes away parking spots from the students," she said. "We think this garage will get the visitors out of permit lots." Off-campus and scholarship hall students can apply for garage permits at the parking department until the end of business hours Friday, Sept. 1. The lottery will take place after close that "Normally, departments have visitors come in and buy user passes, which takes away parking spots from the students. We think this garage will get the visitors out of permit lots." permit lots." Donna Hultine assistant director of parking services day and the selected students will be notified Tuesday, Sept. 5. Once the 200 are drawn, a lottery will continue for the remaining applicants to compile a waiting list. Students are encouraged to buy supplemental permits until after the lottery because ticketing will start on the first day of classes. Students who get garage permits will be able to park in the new garage or the garage north of Allen Fieldhouse. The permits will cost $80 for students and $110 or $115 for faculty, depending on whether they purchase red or blue permits. where they could park. Garage permits will make it illegal to park in other lots on the north end of campus, including scholarship hall spaces. Scholarship hall students say they might not try for the chance to park in the garage because it would limit "It discourages us from applying," said Scott Chapman, Amini Scholarship Hall resident and Shawnee junior. Visitors can park in the new garage for $1 an hour with the new "pay-on-foot" system. After visitors park, they'll proceed on foot to one of eight computerized stations where they'll enter the number of their parking spot and enough money to park for the amount of time they'll be there. Pay stations and change machines are located in the south stair tower and the Oread pedestrian entrance. Doug Westerhouse, Olathe resident and visitor at the University, said the location of the garage was good but that he had some doubts about its userfriendiness. "They need to make it so it's more convenient," he said. Students living in residence halls are not eligible to buy garage permits. Hultine said the department had oversold residence hall permits and that those students might have difficulty finding parking. She encouraged students to decide whether they needed a car on campus. - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Coke costs creep up to $1 By Karen Lucas writer@kanson.com Kansas staff writer It's smart to use a smart card when buying soft drinks in campus vending machines. While the price of a 20-ounce bottle for those paying with cash rose from 85 cents to $1 on Aug. 1, it's still 85 cents for those paying with a KUID. Soft drinks sold in cans continue to sell at 60 cents. "It gives the students, faculty and staff an incentive to use the smart card," said Theresa Klinkenberg, University director of administration. Yet as of now, the vending machines list only the cash price. Kathy Williams, district manager, for Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Lenexa, said consumers soon would find more price information on the machines. "We are having some stickers created to put on the vending machines to indicate the reduced vend rate for smart card users," she said. Students had mixed reactions to the cash price increase for the 20-ounce bottles. Coca-Cola CAVE AT THE COPA Harsh Singh, New Delhi, India, junior, said it wasn't a big deal. "Somebody who spends like 85 cents can also spend a dollar," he said. Henry Jackson, Wichita graduate student, said he would buy Coke in bulk to avoid the high vending machines prices. "Obviously, 85 cents is ridiculous, but a dollar is even more ridiculous," he said. Klinkenberg said the decision to raise the cash price of the 20-ounce bottles was made earlier in the summer by about 10 representatives from the University of Kansas, Coca-Cola and Treat America, a vending company in Overland Park. Matt Neufeld, St. Louis freshman, buys a coke in Hashinger Residence Hall. Coke prices have been raised to $1 in cash; however, if purchased with a smart card, the price is still 85 cents. Photo illustration by Justin Smidkill/KANSAN Toney Anaya, public affairs director for the Mid-America Division of Coca-Cola Enterprises in Albuquerque, N. M., said for the majority of vendors in the area, the $1 price for a 20-ounce bottle was standard. Anaya also said the price increase would be beneficial. "We see it as more money to the University and more money to the students," he said. "The University under the contract receives a commission from the sale of each product, and so when we go from 85 cents to a dollar, the commission will be higher." received $7 million up front in the 10-year exclusive beverage agreement it made with Coca-Cola in 1997. The total estimated amount the University will receive for the 10-year period is $21 million. Klinkenberg said KU While the contract revenue mainly supports scholarships, some of it also goes to campus recycling, student programming and to reimburse the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation and the Kansas and Burge unions for costs incurred or money lost because of the contract, Klinkenberg said. - Edited by Clay McCusition Welcome back, students!

When permit fees increased in 1997, students and faculty were promised 2,000 new parking spots by this year. And more than 2,000 spots have been created. But a significant percentage of those are metered or for visitors — not spots students and faculty are likely to use. To be sure, it's not easy to run the parking department. As a self-supporting entity, the department has the difficult task of raising money to provide more spaces, keep permit fees affordable and fine parking offenders in a just manner. Responding to increasingly disgruntled student drivers, Chancellor Robert Hemenway unveiled a campus access plan in 1997 to bring 2,000 new parking spaces to the University. He planned to pay for those spaces by raising permit and meter fees and parking fines. Those increases went into effect in fall 1997. Three years later, we have those 2,000 new spaces. Park and Ride now has room for 750 cars in the Lied Center parking lot. The lot south of Robinson has expanded slightly to the east. And the lot east of Memorial Stadium will have more than 200 new spaces, as the meters that once blanketed the outskirts of the lot have been removed. The new $7.5 million parking garage on Mississippi Street, with 818 spaces, accounted for the lion's share of Hemenway's goal. But the meters that were pulled out of the Memorial Stadium lot made the short trip across the street to the new parking garage. More than half of the new garage — 500 spaces — will be metered; about 200 are set aside for students, and about 100 are designated for faculty and staff. To recap: Students, faculty and staff are paying higher rates to park on campus, with greater chances of finding a space. But our money also went toward more meters — which visitors often use, not the people who learn, teach or work at the University. Illustration by Kyle Ramsey Since the 1997 increase in permit fees, rates have remained constant. Compared to the other Big 12 institutions, the University's rates for permits and fines put KU at about the middle. That will change. Donna Hultine, assistant parking director, said the rates would probably go up in the next academic year Did the chancellor's plan actually provide more access to campus? Sure. But the people who paid to get that access won't see all of the benefits. Good intentions manifested themselves in the wrong way. Parking department: Students get their money's worth The next time Hemenway or the parking department comes up with a grand vision to alleviate our parking wees, we — the ones whose wallets get lighter — should at least get what we're paying for. Department fulfills its pledge of 2,000 spots Chris Borniger for the editorial board Did you know that the parking department at the University of Kansas is self-supporting? Though we are a state agency and we follow all state guidelines, we are mandated legislatively to generate our own income through user fees. These fees include parking permits, tickets, meter and garage fees and events. Parking rules and fees are set through a lengthy process that begins with a Parking Board made up of faculty, staff and students, and ends with the Chancellor. Increases in parking rates happen only when there is budgetary need, much as with housing increases. It is not this department's mission to make a profit. The income generated by user fees goes toward parking lot maintenance and lighting, snow removal, staffing and equipment to name a lew. increases In rates are spread to all users so some years there have been permit price increases and some years there have been parking ticket increases. In the 19 years that I've been with the parking department, permit prices have changed from 5 to 7 times (depending on the type of permit). In 1984, permit prices were actually decreased because the department had a larger carry forward balance than was necessary. In 1997, after reviewing recommendations from the Parking Board. University Council, and public responses and recommendations of an Ad Hoc Committee on Campus access, Chancellor remenway made some tough decisions about improvements to campus parking. At that time, the Chancellor reminded the campus community that rates had not been increased since 1993, and that an increase was necessary to create more spaces so supply could meet demand. The Chancellor approved across the board permit and fine increases, but also promised 2000 new spaces by the year 2000. The Chancellor said the allocation of additional spaces created by this work would be intended to primarily benefit students; however, it also would serve to decrease the parking congestion throughout the campus. So the parking department was tasked with reconfiguring and repairing existing surface parking lots and was given permission to proceed with plans to build a new parking facility north of the Kansas Union. The result is 2,246 new parking spaces since 1997. Of these, 1,168 are in student parking lots with another 100 coming next summer, and 479 of the new spaces are designated for faculty and staff use. Of the remaining 599 spaces, 99 are used by the KU Visitor Center. Visitors park in the lot and are shuttled to locations around the campus. Though these spaces might not directly benefit faculty, staff and students, they do take pressure off faculty, staff and student spaces in the heart of campus. Finally, 500 spaces in the new parking facility north of the Union are provided for anyone who desires to use them and can be purchased by the hour. The money generated by these hourly spaces will help to pay off the bond that built the garage, again taking pressure off of faculty, staff and students. These are spaces that will be used by visitors, but they also are spaces that any faculty, staff or student could use if they choose. Providing these spaces also will take the pressure off of student permit lots near the stadium where visitors used to park before the garage was an option. Additionally, once the garage was opened, 231 metered parking spaces were removed from the student parking lots by the Union, returning these spaces back to students with yellow permits. The Chancellor's requested permit price increase amounts to about $2 a month for faculty, staff and students.

That is, we've never had a reader's representative before, and we're not yet sure what to do with one. You bothered to pick up a newspaper today, and that's a start. But what do you read when and that you pick up the paper? The sports scores? The horoscopes? The scoop from Student Senate and city commission meetings? OK, I won't fool myself. As a former Student Senate reporter, I know that most students don't search the paper frantically for those kinds of stories. So what do you read, and why? What would it take to get you to read a story about the city commission or Student Senate? I will meet with groups and people from many sides of campus this semester to Erin R. Barcomb readers' representative readersearch.kursan.com try to answer those questions. As a staff, we've looked at several areas of the paper in which we need to improve. Diversity of all sorts has long been a concern of the staff and of our readers. Although we make a concerted effort to diversify cover age and sources in the paper, including having a multicultural reporter, we realize that we often fall short of our goal. That's why we need students from all backgrounds and lifestyles to tell us where and when we're missing the mark. Our coverage of diversity and cultural issues often scratches the surface. We cover Step Shows and Pride Week. But how often do we talk about issues affecting race, religion, sexuality and living arrangements? Probably not as often as we should. Although our staff includes students, traditional and non-traditional, who live on and off campus and come from various backgrounds and upbringing, the fact is that we can't always see things they way you do. We want to. And because you may not always see things from our point of view, I invite you to ask questions of me. You can ask me, "Why does sports have an entire section to itself?" Or, "Why did a story about a Britney Spears rumor appear on the front page when a story about a greek fundraiser got buried in the middle?" If you don't like what you're reading, we're They're fair questions, and hope my involvement will get more of those questions answered.

She was 18 years old. Leftwich, a Skokie, Ill., sophomore,'died of injuries resulting from a car accident the previous afternoon on Interstate 70 about seven miles east of Lawrence. Police are investigating the accident as a possible case of accident as a possible case of road rage. Funeral services were held Wednesday at Weinstein Family Services in Wilmette, Ill. Andrea Leftwich described her daughter as a "very exciting, vivacious" young woman. I will not answer if you do not provide the text. “Her great passion was music,” she said. “She especially loved to sing. When she was home, the house was always filled with music. It’s very quiet now, that’s hard.” Leftwich: died Aug. 13 in an accident on 1-70. Laura Leftwich was a pas- Larissa Lettwich was a senger in the car of Alex Wolfson, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, when the two were in an accident involving three vehicles about 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 12. Leftwich was flown by helicopter to the University of Kansas Medical Center, where she died the next morning. Wolfson was transported by Leavenworth County Ambulance to Providence Memorial Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., where he was treated then released. Master Trooper Terry Burner of the Kansas Highway Patrol said the accident occurred after an altercation between Wolfson and another driver. According to Burner: According to Berry, Wolfson was driving a 1988 four-door Honda Accord west on I-70 and changed lanes from the left passing lane to allow a blue Geo hatchback driven by Billy Breedlove, 44, of Kansas City. When Breedlove passed, some sort of alteration took place between the drivers. Wolfson then pulled back into the passing lane, and Breedlove braked suddenly. Mo., to pass. Wolfson swerved his car to miss the Geo and lost control of the car, which spun and came to rest in the right lane facing oncoming traffic. The car was then hit head-on by a semi truck. The driver of the semi, Donnie Hogsed, 40, Murphy, N.C., was not injured. The truck jackknifed, blocking westbound traffic for about two hours. Breedlove's car was not hit in the accident, and he left the scene. He then stopped at the East Lawrence turnpike exit and told a toll collector that he had been involved in a wreck. The toll collector told Breedlove to pull over while the collector called for a trooper, but Breedlove drove off. Brewedove contacted the highway patrol the evening of Aug. 13 after seeing a televised report of the accident. Burner said that he was still in the process of conducting interviews and that he would talk to the Leavenworth County prosecutor sometime this week to determine how to proceed and what, if any, charges would be filed. Leftwich was studying political science at the University and was a member of Sigma Delta Tau sorority. Chancellor Robert Hemenway released a statement following Leftwich's death. "On behalf of the entire KU community, I want to express profound sorrow at the death of Laura Leftwich, a bright, promising young woman," the statement said. "We all mourn her loss. I offer our deepest sympathies to Laura's family and friends as well as to Alex and the Wolfson family." Jenalee Berk, Dallas sophomore, was to be Leftwich's roommate this semester. She said Leftwich was an outgoing person. "She would say whatever was on her mind," Berk said. "She always had a lot to say." said, "She always that Leftwich is survived by her mother; father, Jim; sister, Rebecca, 15; and brother, Adam, 12. - Edited by Kathryn Moore By Meghan Bainum writer@kansan.com Kansas staff writer Cynthia Atkinson thinks she found something extra on her Taco Bell chalupa two weeks ago. Woman suspects blood in chalupa It wasn't extra cheese or unwanted sour cream. Atkinson, of Lawrence, said it looked like blood. Atkinson refused to comment further until test results become available and she talked to her attorney Lawrence Police Detective M.T. Brown said the chalupa, which came from the Taco Bell at 1408 W. 23rd St., was tested and a detective was put on the case to follow leads and conduct interviews. But the substance has not yet been identified. "We have run preliminary tests that we won't release, but we have "We aren't ruling anything out—including a possible motive." Laurie Gannon Public relations director for Taco Bell Corp. sent the chalupa to the KBI (Kansas Bureau of Investigation), and they are conducting their analysis." Brown said. Taco Bell has also taken an active role in the investigation. In a written statement, Laurie Gannon, public relations director for Taco Bell Corp., said Taco Bell was cooperating with the police and health department and took the complaints seriously. "While we are anxiously awaiting the test results, we aren't ruling anything out — including a possible motive." Gannon said. Sharon Watson, public information director for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said the health department investigated the restaurant several days after the alleged incident but found no violations. Watson said all workers were wearing gloves, and none had cuts on their hands or arms. Watson said that the health department investigates three or four similar cases each year. She said that after the department investigated this chalupa incident its involvement in the case was over, unless police request further information. Edited by Clay McCuistion Students want to keep Napster Continued from page 1A The Recording Industry Association of America thinks software that lets people download copyrighted music should be illegal. Some mainstream artists such as Metallica agree and have filed suit against Napster. If Napster loses its battle with the music industry, it will have to be shut down. "I believe the Napster technology "I'm going to cry when Napster finally goes down. When I thought it was going down last July I sat and downloaded every song I could think of." "I believe the Napster technology can help everyone involved in music Paul Farran including artists, consumers and the industry," said Napster Chief Executive Hank Barry in a written statement. "New technologies can be a win-win situation if we work together on building new models, and we at Napster are eager to do so." Still, the Napster case is on a fast track to appeals court. According to a Napster official, the site had just begun the appeals process. The RIAA tried to make Napster shut down during the process with a court Wichita junic order, but the site was granted a stay to allow it to stay open. A brief that was due Friday outlined all of Napster's legal arguments. Oral arguments in the case will begin in September. "I'm going to cry when Napster finally goes down," he said. "When I Farran said he is not looking forward to the possibility of life without Napster. thought it was going down last July I sat and downloaded every song I could think of." However, some students like Samantha Montague, Wichita sophomore, think that while Napster should stay on the Web, people should not abuse the free-music privilege. "The more that people just straight download things, the more they are going to restrict it because nobody is supporting the band — and the band has to make money from the music," Montague said. Still, Montague said she did not think bands like Metallica should be suing Napster. "A mainstream band has no right to be upset. They have made their money." Montague said. "But an underground band is not going to be rich and famous, and they rely on you to support their band." - Edited by Erin Adamson Drive half an hour, save a bundle!

D. McKee writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Five University of Kansas fraternities on Stewart Avenue, Pi Kappa Theta, Pi Kappa Alpha, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Alpha Kappa Lambda and Lambda Chi Alpha, closed during the summer. P1 Kiappa Theta rush chairman Tony Berg said the fraternity would not return until next fall because it did not meet its summer deadline to install a sprinkler system. Brian Shimanek, president of Pi Kappa Alpha, said the house members and alumni decided to leave instead of renovating as the city fire marshall required. "We felt it was a good opportunity to move off to new housing," Shimanek said. "For the past few years we've been discussing plans to move." For the rest of the school year, Shimanek and 11 other members of the house have rented out all the apartments in a building on Indiana Street. Shimanek said Pi Kappa Alpha would continue to have its meetings in the Kansas Union. It is against Interfraternity Council rules for houses to set up unofficial chapter houses, so the members of Pi Kappa Alpha cannot hold official meetings in their private residences. ings in their private Sam MacRoberts, Interfraternity Council president, said Tau Kappa Epsilon and Alpha Kappa Lambda have had trouble meeting financial obligations, and they are without chapter houses. Lambda Chi Alpha has moved into the vacant Alpha Omicron Pi house, 1510 Sigma Nu Place, where the members of Delta Chi fraternity lived last spring "If all fraternities continue to work aggressively they'll be able to move back into their chapters." MacRoberts said. he also said that relocation could be a positive thing for the fraternities. "This is a good opportunity for them to refocus on what they need to be doing," he said. "It could be an exciting learning process for everyone involved. It doesn't have to be a bad thing." MacRoberts said he also thought it was important for the University and Greek community to support the temporarily homeless fraternities. "Just because they don't have chapter houses doesn't mean they aren't fraternities," he said. — Edited by Erin Adamson MARGARET AMRIE Residents begin their move into the new Margaret Amini Scholarship Hall last Saturday morning. Margaret Amini has four floors, 16,600 square feet and cost $2.9 million to build. Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN KU women make Amini sister hall home By L. D. McKee writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Margaret Amini Hall opened its doors Saturday to the 50 women who will be its first residents. The hall is next to its brother hall, K.K. Amini, in the 1300 block of Louisiana Street. Megan Horigan, Frankfort junior, said she lived in Douthart Hall last year but jumped at the opportunity to move to the new hall. who had previously lived in a scholarship hall would live in each room, making it an easier transition into scholarship hall living for new residents. "Some of the other buildings are a bit older," she said. "But everything here is brand new. It's really nice." "It's a really exciting chance to get involved." Horrigan said. Horrigan said at least one woman Danica Fri, Salt Lake City freshman, said she was surprised at how nice the hall was. "I've stayed at other dorms for sports," Fri said. "This is a lot more than I expected. It's nice to be first and start new traditions." The new hall will be similar in design to Amini, an all-male residence, and will consist of quadruple-occupancy suites, with separate rooms for living. sleeping and studying and private bathrooms. There also is a common living room and a common kitchen in the hall. Amiini and Margaret Amiini scholarship halls were named after KU alumni K.K. and Margaret Amiini of San Antonio. The Amiini have contributed $2.5 million toward the building of the two halls. K.K. Amiini Hall has been open since 1992. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said the Aminis were easy to work with. The last women's scholarship hall "They are a wonderu couple, they said they wanted to build another hall and left the designs to the University." AMINI FACTS Total square feet (each Amini Hall) = 16,600 Project costs (Margaret Amini Hall) = $2.9 million Construction costs per square foot = $135 ($15 for men's in 1992) $135 ($95 for men's in 1992) Number of floors in each = 4 Number of floors in each = 4 Special features = four-person suit Special features = four person suites Number of rooms in a suite = three Number of rooms in a suit = three rooms for living, sleeping and studying, plus a bathroom and closets built at Kansas was Douthart Hall, built in 1954. School of Education converges under one roof for easier accessibility By Jennifer Valadez writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Former residence hall, Joseph R. Pearson Hall, now is the home of the School of Education. The move to the seven-story building, which took place July 31 to Aug. 3, has created improvements that will benefit not only the program but also its students, faculty and staff. Before uniting under one roof, the school had offices in Bailey Hall, Dole Human Development Center and the Chariton Manley Inc. Building, 211 E. Eighth St., said Jim Hultine, assistant to the dean. He said the new location would help education students access resources because it was the first time the majority of the school would be in the same building. Approximately 4,500 items and 250 staff members made the move. Hultine said. "For the most part, students have only one place to find (teachers)," Hultine said. "As far as faculty, we'll find more ways to interact with each other. It's not as spread apart. This is always a benefit." The new building includes several technological advances including 12 seminar classrooms, a state-of-the-art lecture auditorium and expanded computer facilities. computer "The technology is phenomenal." said Dee Ozment, undergraduate records clerk. Ozment also said the new space had helped make records easier to access. MaryAnn Williams, graduate records clerk, said that the new building was an advantage in itself. "There are new, big, clean classrooms," Williams said. "That's the advantage of moving into a new building." But the entire school didn't make the move. Offices for the health, sport and exercise sciences department will remain in Robinson Center. Williams said that department remained at the location because all of its classes and labs meet there. With the department's advisors also in Robinson, students will be have more footwork between the two buildings, especially during enrollment. Ozment said the conflict would arise with students not having all required authorization, such as an adviser's signature, on their enrollment forms. The building is not the only change in the school. Jerry Bailey will act as the interim dean of the school when the fall semester begins. Hultine, confident with the move, expressed his outlook on what was in store for the coming year in the school. "This was a positive move for the future of the school," he said. "We may not be completely settled in for another six months, but there will be an incredible faculty." — Edited by Warisa Chulindra Red Lyon Tavern 944 Mass. 832-8228 WE'VE GOT WHAT YOU WANT MONEY CHARISMA STYLE Happy Birthday to you.

The two new stops will be at 23rd and Louisiana streets, near Schlotzsky's Sandwich Shop, and the northeast corner of 23rd and Alabama streets. Holly Krebs, KU on Wheels coordinator, said she expected this route change to be in effect for the entire fall semester. Seventh Street is blocked between Maine and Michigan streets, and although the buses will take an alternate route, all the stops remain the same. Krebs said the route would return to normal Sunday, Oct. 1. "I know it might be an inconvenience to some students, but we made the changes this way because we wanted to make sure to get everyone to class on time," Krebs said. Last spring, the transportation board approved the addition of a new route that will serve south Iowa, including a stop at Jefferson Commons Apartments, and the elimination of the route serving West Sixth Street. Buses on the Sixth and Crestline route will no longer stop on Also, a new median placed at 15th and Engel streets to increase pedestrian safety may cause minor problems for buses serving Daisy Hill, Krebs said. She said when buses turn in or out of Daisy Hill, the front of the bus will swing over the median, while the back will run partially over the curb. Schwarz Road, but will loop through Fireside and Gateway courts. Danny Fox, a mechanic at Lawrence Automotive Diagnostics, 2058 Four Wheel Dr., said although running over the curb may not cause immediate damage to the buses, it would probably cause damage in the future. "It's not probably something you want to keep doing," Fox said. "The less contact you have with the curb, the better." Krebs said the median was installed as a safety measure because drivers traveling on 15th Street sometimes can't see pedestrians crossing at the top of the hill. She said there were no plans to re-route the buses picking up students at the residence halls because re-routing would affect bus stops at Jayhawker Towers. Kyle Ramsey/KANSAN "If for any reason this causes any injury or slows down the buses to where we are not serving the students, we would consider re-routing," Krebs said.

City officials have approved a public bus system that would include eight routes, including one that will go through the University of Kansas campus. Karin Rexroad, Lawrence public transit administrator, said she thought the new system would com- "I think a lot of services offered concentrate on getting students to campus," she said. "The new city buses would help students get to other destinations around Lawrence." The new system would also benefit students' pockets. While KU on Wheels is $1 per ride, the new city bus would be only fifty cents. Whether the city will offer bus passes is still uncertain. Rexroad said she thought the two bus systems would go hand-in-hand in offering citywide transportation. Casey Kelley, Golden, Colo., senior, said she thought the new bus system would be attractive to students. "I would use it, especially on weekends when finding a parking space on Mass. Street is impossible," she said. The El Dorado National Bus Company, based in Chino, Calif., will manufacture the buses. Rexroad and other city officials traveled to Chino yesterday to pick out the seat arrangement and color layout of the buses. Funding for the new buses came from a combination of federal, state and local money. The new buses will cost about $2.4 million — 12 buses costing approximately $200,000 each. Some students said they thought the new system would be a good investment for Lawrence. "The system would help students in areas where KU on Wheels does not run anc for afternoons when a student has been drinking," said Brad Durkin. Lawrence senior. City officials aim to have buses made in 12 to 18 months and running shortly after. KU researcher held by Colombian rebels Edited by Kristi Elliott By Karen Lucas writer@kansas.com Kansas staff writer By Karen Lucas Nothing can dim John Lynch's passion for studying frogs in Colombia. Not even encounters with guerrillas. Earlier this month, for the second time in two years, Lynch, a KU research associate and alumnus with a doctorate in zoology, was detained by rebels while doing field research. He said he was detained the first time for a day and a half by the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces 15 months ago. Lynch and 25 other members of a research team of scientists and students arrived Aug. 7 in La Union, Colombia. In a recent telephone interview, Lynch said that what was supposed to have been an eight-hour drive from Bogota turned into a 36-hour drive because roads were blocked. The group was approached that evening by members of a rebel group called the National Liberation Army who recommended the research team leave the area, Lynch said. "They pointed out to us there were frequent assassinations of campesinos (peasants) by the paramilitary," he said. Two days later, Lynch and his colleagues were taken captive by the National Liberation Army and taken to the rebel camp. Lynch said the guerrillas treated the researchers well during their three days of captivity. "They basically seemed concerned about our safety," he said. The researchers were even given permission to go out and conduct their research as long as they were accompanied by a guerrilla, Lynch said. By the afternoon of Aug. 11, the researchers learned that they would be freed. "It was kind of a surprise," Lynch said. "I actually figured we'd be there a few more days." Lynch said his group left the camp with the rebels that afternoon and arrived at an abandoned building in the early evening. After waiting a few hours in the building, they were released by the rebels and met by representatives of the Red Cross, the Roman Catholic Church, the Public Defender's Office and the media. John Simmons, collection manager at the Natural History Museum, said he saw coverage of the group on a Spanish-language television station. "I was v er y relieved on Saturday to see that they were out." he said. William Duellman, a professor emeritus and curator of herpetology who direct Lynch: Taken captive in Colombia during research ed Lynch's dissertation, said he received an e-mail from Lynch three days after his release. "He's hoping to get back into the country where they were kidnapped because it looked like a great place for frogs." Duellman said. Lynch has been living in Colombia since 1997, when he became a professor and the curator of amphibians at the Institute of Natural Sciences at the National University of Colombia in Bogota. Prior to that, Lynch visited the country often. "Twenty-five years ago, I was trying to figure out how to work in Colombia because I figured this place was maybe the richest in the world for frogs," he said. "The frogs were what brought me, and they're certainly what keeps me here." - Edited by Erin Adamson Work On Campus KU Bookstore Information/Candy Counter Kansas Union Catering Student Union Activities Wescoe Terrace Jaybowl Recreation Center Prairie Room Restaurant Union Square Food Services Hawks Nest Custodial Services Visual Arts Snack Bar Burge Union Crimson Cafe Now Hiring Visit the JobBoard Level 5, Kansas Union Outside the Personnel Office CLINIQUE FINE COSMETICS CLINIQUE CLINIQUE clarifying lotion2 CLINIQUE dramatically different moisturizing lotion Weavers 9th & Massachusetts SHOP MONDAY-SATURDAY 9:30-6:00, THURSDAY 'TIL 8:30 • SUNDAY 12:00-5:00 WeaverS 9th & Massachusetts Section A·Page 8 The University Daily Kansan Monday, August 21, 2000 Ben Walker Student Body President Ben Walker, student body president and Marlon Marshall, student body vice president, discuss issues concerning the new school year. Walker and Marshall plan to address issues such as tuition and student services. Photo by Karra Kraus / KANSAN Student execs set year's agenda Fewer tuition hikes among top priorities for Walker, Marshall By Kursten Phelps writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Student Body President Ben Walker and Vice President Marlon Marshall want Student Senate to focus on students — not on bickering. Walker said a main goal for the new academic year was to make Senate a working government body that served the students rather than just a legislative body. "Too often, we have spent our time in long meetings arguing over minor issues that don't really change much," he said. "I think that's a big turnoff to students." Marshall said they had been working on specific programs that would provide concrete services that students want. "My department is more the tangible things, the stuff that students can see and know their student government is working for them," Marshall said. He said work had already begun on an online, off-campus housing directory, and also on a plan for students to use the residence hall meal plan at Wescoe Terrace. Other possible services may include local discount cards, a newspaper readership program that would make national newspapers available on campus, and more ATM machines and copiers in the residence halls. Another big issue for Senate would be tuition, Walker said. Tuition was increased twice this year. It increased 2.5 percent in June 1999, and last December a $3.20 increase per credit hour was approved. During the summer, the Board of Regents approved another increase of 3 percent for resident students, 2.5 percent for nonresident undergraduates, and 2.2 percent for nonresident graduates. That increase will go into effect in Fall 2001. Walker said he was working with the student body presidents of the six other Regents schools to develop and lobby a tuition bill of rights that would establish several laws to limit tuition increases. For example, if tuition was increased by a certain percentage one year, the Board of Regents could not raise tuition for three to five years. Walker also said he wanted to tie financial aid to tuition increases, meaning the Legislature would have to increase financial aid by the same percentage tuition was increased. "All of the student body presidents are on board with this," Walker said. "It would limit the power of the Board of Regents to raise tuition at will." Walker said he was going into the year WALKER AND MARSHALL Title: Student body president Ben Walker Hometown: Hutchinson Major: Political Science Previous Senate experience: legislative adirector, 1994-2000 nunemaker senator, 1997-2000 - From the president - Wants Senate to focus on working for students, not arguing about legislative issues.

"There were some hard feelings left over from the elections, but over the summer there was really good cooperation," he said. "We have a strong, bright, energetic group of senators and a pretty high turnover rate of new senators, so I'm excited to work with all of them." Edited by Shawn Hutchinson Report: students unhappy with campus politicians By Kursten Phelps writer@kanson.com Kansan staff writer Student Senate surveyed students in April to find out what campus issues are important to them. The results didn't reflect well on Senate. Instead, the survey revealed students' indifference toward Senate. Students said that they felt Senate didn't serve their needs, but that they were concerned with tuition, financial aid, parking and online enrollment. STUDENT THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SENATE Ben Walker, student body president, said he hoped to change that indifference. "It reaffirmed a lot of my feelings about students' attitudes toward Senate," he said, adding that a lot of students were anathetic toward Senate. "Hopefully, this will help us in general work to change students' attitudes so that they're less apathetic about Student Senate all the way up to state and local politics," Walker said. The survey research center of the Policy and Research Institute conducted the telephone survey at random. It questioned 577 students at campus issues and their knowledge of University, local and state politics, said Don Haider-Markel, director of the survey research center. "We haven't had time to digest too much of the results," Walker said. "But it gives us an idea of the issues we need to work on." Walker said he planned to review the report with the Senate Executive staff before he would present it to student senators at Senate's Leadership Training Seminar Saturday. Senate plans to release the results to the public within a couple of weeks, he said. "It's in line with our plans for LTS and it will contribute to our group discussions about our constituencies and how we can serve our constituents' needs better," Walker said. "We all have our own ideas of what direction Student Senate should go in, and the survey adds to that and makes a larger voice of what students want to do," said Marlon Marshall, student body vice president. The results were processed during the summer and the Student Senate received the report at the end of July. Haider-Markel said the margin of error was less than 3.4 percent, which is comparable to major national surveys.

The beauty of the campus was named one of the best things about the University of Kansas. Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN Zeke Cunningham, Temecula senior, writes a parking ticket last fall for the parking department. Parking was picked as one of the worst aspects of campus. Kansan file photo 100 KU: the good, bad and ugly By Mandy Symons Special to the Kansan What's the best thing about the University of Kansas? And the worst? First, the bad. KU students and professors rate parking high on their short list of the worst. There's the problem of finding a space when the student lots are full. Then, there's the cost of metered parking. Add that to the cost of a ticket when the meter runs out after a long day of classes. Metered parking costs $1 per hour and expired meters result in a $5 fine. If students park in a lot without the proper permit, they face fines of $20 and to $100. Another thorn in students' sides is enrollment. Students complain because they can't enroll online. Short of that, they say the current system should be more efficient. Several students complained about waiting for their assigned time in long lines and then not getting the classes they needed. Parking and enrollment aren't their only complaints. "I'd like to see more scholarships for average students other than National Merit Scholars and athletes," Erin MLCain, Hutchinson junior, said. Lawrence Wrightsman, professor of psychology, thought students were bearing too much of the financial burden of the University, with tuition rates increasing frequently. On the other hand, the University has its perks, too. High on many students' lists is KU basketball. The best thing about KU is having Roy Williams coaching inside Allen Field House, the greatest place to play college basketball," said Katie Farris, Oswego jumped Liz Snyder, Wichita junior, disagreed. "Everybody makes such a big deal about [basketball], and they forget that there's lots of other cool stuff going on at the University," she said. Many Jayhawks said the support the alumni and students have for the University made KU what it is. "I like how it's a very open campus and how easily things are accepted," said James Oakes, Columbus, Ohio, sophomore. Other students think the best of KU is the campus itself. On sunny days, Wescoe beach is flooded with students sitting, resting, talking to friends or just people-watching. "I think the best thing about KU is the great social scene," said Chris Maynard, Lawrence sophomore. McLain said the University's strength was in its instructors. "What I like best is how willing professors are to help me outside of class," McLain said. Graduation ceremonies vary within conference — Edited by Lori O'Toole By Kyle Burnett Special to the Kansan The image of 4,000 students in caps and gowns walking down Campanile defines the graduation tradition at the University of Kansas. Like Kansas, other Big 12 universities have traditions that make graduation a special occasion. The University of Texas at Austin separates its graduates into three separate ceremonies to accommodate the almost 7,000 graduates, said Jean Griffith, assistant dean of graduate studies at Texas. The traditional procession is in front of the bell tower on campus, beginning with a carillon prelude of bells and ending with everyone singing "The Eyes of Texas." Griffith said. Bill Moyers, an alumnus and Emmy award-winning broadcast journalist, spoke at commencement, and a fireworks show followed to signal the official graduation of the seniors. Texas A&M University's graduation ceremony is slightly different from its state rival in Austin. "We have three different ceremonies, but our main ceremony is much more formal," said Karen Price, assistant registrar at Texas A&M. "The students get their diploma when they walk across the stage." The ceremony begins with the placement of the Mace Standard, a large piece of wood with a plaque on the center. It's carried on stage and placed in its holder by the faculty marshal. Price said. Then the Gonfalonier, the academically outstanding student from each school, carries the flag for each college and places it in its holder on stage. An alumnus usually speaks first, followed by a guest speaker. The identity of the guest speaker is kept secret until there is an official commitment, Price said. Two of the three guest speakers this year were the honorable Francisco Flores, president of El Salvador, and Robert Atwell, former president of the American Council on Education. The ceremony, which is held outdoors, is ended by the singing of the school song. Iowa State University takes yet another approach to celebrating and com mencing with graduation. "Each school has its own individual ceremony," said Debbie Lettow, record analyst in the Iowa State graduation office. The formality of the individual school ceremonies recognizes each individual graduate separately. But there is a larger ceremony for all undergraduates where caps and gowns are worn and a speaker from outside the university speaks. Lettow said. The Sooners at the University of Oklahoma have a parade that precedes the graduation ceremony complete with a pipe and drum corps and color guard, said Jerri Culpepper, coordinator for news and publications at Oklahoma. The long parade along with the international students carrying their countries' flags winds through campus to the football stadium where the graduation ceremony is held. Each student is given a pin when they walk across the stage temporarily erected on the field for the commencement ceremony. "The procession is very formal," Culpepper said. But as is the case at Kansas, graduates at Oklahoma receive their diplomas in the mail. Culpepper said. On the other hand, Kansas State University has no graduation traditions. The Wildcats do not have a university commencement ceremony, but each school within the university has its own graduation for the seniors. The University of Missouri also does not have a campus ceremony. "Each school has its own graduation ceremony," said Gary Smith, director of admissions and registrar at Missouri. "There are two large traditions Missouri has each year — the honors convocation and the fanfare Open House party the alumni hosts the night before." The honors convocation is a ceremony that honors outstanding students, honorary degree students, Latin honors and students with perfect grade point averages. The alumni then host a party for those students and others the night before to celebrate the occasion, Smith said. Each school within Missouri has a speaker at its commencement ceremony, but the speakers tend not to be big-name people. Smith said.

Students and faculty say-few classes go by without irritation. Obvious distractions such as talking during class, reading the newspaper and tardiness are high on their lists of net peeves. However, what professors find annoying is as diverse and varied as the professors themselves. "My number one pet peeve is when students chew gum while they are making presentations," said Linda Davis, associate dean of strategic communications. "It makes me want to run up under their mouths with a trash can." "There are certain things I don't allow, and those are things that I state explicitly in my syllabus," Stull said, mentioning he did not allow hats, conversation, reading, sleeping or noisy electronic devices. "Once my expectations are clear, everything goes OK," he said. said Vicki Collie, Lawrence senior. Lawrence Wrightsman, professor of psychology, said that talking was rare in his classes and that the only thing that really annoyed him was when students came in late. However, students aren't the only ones late to class. "I had a professor that showed up five minutes late to class and made us stay five minutes past," said Michael Puh. Woman, Mo. senior. Students have pet peeves about professors' teaching as well. "I really hate it when they're contemplating a thought and they do that really long two-minute pause," "This one professor I had talked in monotone the whole class," said Josh Bentley, Olathe senior. "You could look around and see all the heads hitting the desks left and right." Many students begin to lose interest in the class when the professor's idiosyncreties become irritating. "I had one professor that looks anywhere but at the class," said Laura Halstead, Omaha, Neb., sophomore. "It kind of makes you space off, too, because he's not paying attention." Professor's lecture habits weren't the only thing that students said annoyed them. Cory Dooolittle, Lincoln, Neb. juniar, said it bothered him when he felt that his professors didn't want to be in the classroom. "You can tell they are here just for research and they regret having to teach you," he said. Getting past all the habits of stu Bubble popping is among the annoyances of students across campus.

Davis said that beyond than her pet peeves, "my students are perfect." - Edited by Chris Borniger Sprint Cell phones come in a variety of different sizes and sport many colors. Photo illustration by Christina Neff/KANSAN Cell phones entice students with array of styles, features By Lauren Lenter Special to the Kansan Cell phones aren't a wave of the future anymore. The tiny, portable phones are here, and they are here to stay. Some teachers ask their students to turn off their phones before class. Others ask students to leave if the phone rings. People look at their cell phones as a necessity. Nicole Anesi, Buffalo Grove, Ill., senior, said that she was usually away from her home phone, so her cell was more practical. "In case anyone needs to reach me, I'm always on my cell," she said. Some top sellers are: The Nokia 5120. Allowing for interchangeable face plates, Nokia offers Big 12 face plates for $19.95, and solid-color face plates start at $14.95. Roughly 30 face plates are available. This model represents three of every four phones sold at the Southwestern Bell Store, 520 W. 23rd St., suite H. The Nokia 5160. This phone looks much like the Nokia 5120 but has a new software package. It's slightly smaller than the 5120 and has both wider range and clearer reception. The Motorola 2200 series. Brand new, fresh and sleek, this phone also has interchangeable face plates. Mark Turner, store manager of the Southwestern Bell Store, said the phone was aimed toward college students. "It provides flexibility, memory and features," he said. Turner said that people were drawn to a unit they could change. This phone weighs only 5.3 ounces and is capable of 100 minutes of talk time. Samsung Dual Band 3500. This phone can receive signals in areas without equipment to relay the signal. Offered by Sprint PCS, the Samsung is popular because of its flip feature and its wide coverage. Mark Brown, store manager of Radio Shack, 601 Kasold Drive; said that the Samsung is Webready and easy to use. - The Motorola I 1000+. Leo Feldman of Midwest Digital, 2201 W. 258 St., suite B, said this phone was quite popular.

Monday, August 21. 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 11 Hawk Week helps new students get acquainted By Veronica Rosas Special to the Kansan Hawk Week, a tradition at the University of Kansas since 1983, offers events with the goal of introducing new students to the campus and giving them the opportunity to see some of the services the University has to offer. The Office of New Student Orientation (ONSO) and Student Union Activities sponsor many of the programs. Chandra Jones, program advisor for SUA, said its most popular events were Movie on the Hill, Beach-N-Boulevard and Floating Flicks. Hawk Week offers events during the day and in the evening. Mary Ryan, director of the ONSO, said the day programs were informational and focused more on familiarizing students with the resources on campus. The early programs also are set up to help introduce students to faculty and to help the students meet each other. Day programs include tours at the libraries, Watkins Health Center and Robinson Center. One of the programs is the personal class schedule tour during which the ONSO staff meets with students and walks the students around campus based on their class schedules. Josh Burdette, coordinator of Hawk Week and Belle Plaine graduate student, said one of the purposes of Hawk Week was to show students a good time. It is a way for students to have fun in a safe environment and get ready for the new school year, he said. Movie on the Hill Here are descriptions and times of popular Hawk Week events: SUA is sponsoring Movie on the Hill at 9:15 tonight on the lawn behind Ellsworth Hall. Students are encouraged to bring frisbees and blankets for the event. Beach-N-Boulevard Beach-N Boulevard, sponsored by SUA, will be at 8 p.m. Wednesday at Wesco Beach. This event is similar to a beach party with games and music. It is good way to meet new students and get the feel of the KU community, Jones said. Floating Flicks The movie Jaws will be shown at 9:30 p.m. Saturday at Potter Lake. If the night is clear, the floating screen will reflect on the water.

Older students who have been there and done that recently offered advice for the newest Jayhawks. Special to the Kansan Michelle Whiteley, Omaha junior, said freshmen need to get in a cycle of going to class every day. Freshmen also should remember to focus on their school work because a low GPA could endanger further academic achievement, said Chris Brink, Wichita senior. "The classes only get harder," Whiteley said. "So you want to build your grade point average before it drops with the harder classes." "One mistake freshmen make would be not being proactive when having problems in a class," Hill said. "I mean going to talk to professors and meeting with advisers. If they let deadlines pass, they could be in for a lot of trouble." Edwin Hill, academic advisor, said that if students found themselves in trouble, they should not hesitate to ask for help. "Since I am going to law school, keeping my GPA high is very important," Brink said. "Freshman need to think about this during their first year so they don't close off the possibility of law school or med school or even graduate school." The University provides many outlets for students who need extra assistance with studies. Hill said. "Get tutoring if you need it," Hill said. "A good thing to do is go to the Student Development Center. It is a great resource for students to use." Joining activities is a good way for freshmen to find friends and immerse them selves into the college lifestyle, he said. "Get involved with extracurricular activities," Hill said. "They help make the transition of KU being home, instead of home being home." The University's best options include sororities and fraternities, sport clubs and Student Union Activities, said Mel Henning. Wichita senior. "SUA is a great way to learn about the campus and different activities," said Henning, a former SUA member. "It is a great way to meet people because you are communicating with a group." "They make the transition of KU being home, instead of home being home." Edwin Hill academic advisor Becoming a member of a sorority or fraternity introduces freshmen to older college students who can help with the shock of moving away from home. "Joining a fraternity made it really easy to find friends." Brink said. "It also pushed me right into the college lifestyle because I was hanging out with an older crowd." "My freshman year was a great time." Brink said. "I met so many different people in my classes and at parties. It was a real mind-opening experience, especially after hanging out with the same group of people in high school for four years." Two-strike rule could curb partiers Edited by Kristi Elliott By Melissa Davis writer@kansan.com Kansan Staff writer A new Lawrence ordinance might make partying more difficult for some college students. City officials adopted an ordinance this summer that penalizes occupants of disorderly residences. was ridiculous. Residents that violate city and state laws for alcohol or disorderly conduct twice within one year have to sign an agreement with the city to resolve the behavior. If the agreement is broken by either tenants or their guests — the city can issue fines, shut off utilities or even evict the tenants. Mike Moriarty, Omaha, Neb., graduate student, said he thought the ordinance "I don't see the connection between shutting off my utilities and me having parties," Moriarty said. Dave Corliss, assistant city manager, said the ordinance came about because of an increase in the number of complaints from Lawrence citizens. Corliss said the city needed to take some action. "Citizens were complaining of late-night parties, unlawful parking and trash in their yards in a traditionally family neighborhood," Corliss said. Jeff Lark, Olathe senior, said he thought the new ordinance would have a domino effect on the University. "Kids go to a certain school for numerous reasons," Lark said. "One deciding factor More information For more on the city party ordinance: See page 11D might be for the party scene, but if kids can't have a party at their house, they might think twice about going to KU." Mike Wildgen, city manager, said most of the complaints stemmed from single-family neighborhoods. "Some areas, like south of campus, have a built-in conflict with single families and disruptive houses living next to each other." Wilden said. He said he didn't know how many students would be affected by the new ordinance. "It is aimed at disruptive houses, not students," he said. "The ordinance is a way of preventing the problem." Moriarty said he thought that house parties were an attractive aspect of college life and that there was a way around the new ordinance. He said the party host should check out who their neighbors are first. "When I throw a party, I always tell my neighbors beforehand," Mortiary said. "That way they are less likely to call the police or at least warn you." Lark said he was relieved that the ordinance only goes into effect if the disorderly residents violated city laws twice in a 365-day period. "At least you can have one big bash a year," he said.

But according to Randall Rock, a Watkins Memornal Health Center physician, that habit can be dangerous to students' health. "Caffeine pills can cause fast heart rate, irritability and sleep deprivation," he said. "I took caffeine pills a couple of times," Kuribayashi said. "At first they were very effective, but then they became ineffective." Under pressure, Kuribayashi popped more caffeine pills to try to make the effect stronger. "Since the regular dose of pills did not work, I ended up taking twice the amount and became very sick," Kuribayashi said. "I felt completely dizzy and could not function. I realized that they were not good for my health and never took the drug again." Kuribayashi used the over-the-counter drug known as Vivarin. A 200 mg Vivarin pill contains as much caffeine as two cups of brewed coffee. Lynn Irvin, staff pharmacist at Watkins, said Vivarin has potential unpleasant side effects. "Vivarin can cause stomach upset, insomnia, restlessness, irritability and nausea." Irvin said. Rock said he had seen several students who had abused caffeine pills. "With the hectic schedules of students trying to balance work and school, it is not uncommon for students to use high amounts of caffeine." Rock said. Rock said he had even seen students who had missed exams because of using caffeine pills. "Some students who have taken a lot of caffeine pills have been unable to sleep before a test, and then they are unable to concentrate," Rock said. "If someone takes too much caffeine, it can be problematic to their performance. Instead of heightening alertness, it can often bring about heightened anxiety and irritability." Rock said that caffeine pills could be potentially dangerous to people with an underlying heart disease and to those who are bothered by caffeine. It especially can affect those with anxiety disorders. Grace Chang, a recent KU graduate, had a bad experience with caffeine pills and was awake for three days. "I took caffeine pills when I was studying for tough exams," Chang said. "The problem with them is that I could not sleep for three days because your body wants to go to sleep, but your mind is awake." Rock advises students to try not to depend on caffeine. "Caffeine is unpredictable," Rock said. "As you are chartering your game plan for success, do not let caffeine be part of it. Instead, focus on time management." — Edited by Erin McDaniel Dangers linked to sleep deprivation Individuals differ, but strict schedules exercise help prevent illness, accidents th "C" wa a de al s Y a "J m w T e fa To set per By Melissa Davis Special to the Kansan Fatemah Yadullah didn't think much of the fact that she was always tired and was having a hard time focusing at work and in her classes. Until one evening when she fell asleep at the wheel while driving home from work. Little did Yadullah, Overland Park senior, know that she was suffering from something more than a little lack of sleep. She was suffering from sleep deprivation. Because not all bodies are the same, some people need more rest than others, said John Wade, physician at Counseling and Psychology Services at Watkins Health Center. Illustration by Kyle Ramsey/KANSAN Wade describes sleep deprivation as a condition in which a chronic lack of sleep affects a person's mood or performance. He said the condition was common among college students. Dustin Shull, Leawood junior, said he wasn't surprised that many college students suffer from sleep deprivation. "College is one of the busiest times of our life," Shull said. "We go to class, then we come home to study. Or we don't want to miss out, so we procrastinate on our studying and go out instead." Sleep deprivation can cause both minor and major problems for students. difficult for students to retrieve and process new information. If students don't catch up on sleep, Lack of sleep contributes to poor concentration and memory, which makes it information in situations where these smaller problems can mowball into illness, depress patients, hallucination and paranoia also have been reported in especially severe cases of sleep deprivation. Yadullah knows firsthand how a lack of sleep can affect her and increase her chance of accidents. "I was driving home from work when I fell asleep and missed my turn. Luckily, I woke up before I wrecked," Yadullah said. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that 56,000 crashes a year are caused by fatigue. To cure sleep deprivation, Wade suggests sticking to a set schedule of sleep and avoiding naps. "Taking naps creates a cycle," he said. "When a person can't sleep at night, they nap the next day, then they don't feel tired the next night, and a cycle begins." Wade also suggests exercising and avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bed. "Alcohol puts the body in shock, then the body has to work extra hard to recover, so you sleep lighter and won't feel as rested," Individuals need different amounts of sleep, Wade said. For example, one person may be getting five hours of sleep and suffer no adverse consequences while another person may be severely impaired by the same sleep schedule. — Edited by Amy Randolph SUNDANCE Comfortable and affordable living.

Students must have an ACT score of 22 and be in the top 50 percent of their high school classes to enter the school. SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING ■ Enrollment: 1,675 in 1999 ■ Degrees awarded: 257 in past year. Ann Barkink, director of academic services in engineering, said that computer science and computer engineering were popular majors. more in computer engineering, said the engineering school was very competitive. "Your GPA has to be before you come to KU," she said. With the advent of the Internet and the World Wide Web, there is a strong demand for graduates in these fields. Bakerink said. Enrollment in the School of Engineering is higher than it has been for 10 years. Enrollment dipped by 1,288 students in 1993, but since computer science moved to the school in fall 1994, enrollment has increased from about 1.5 each year. Graduates with bachelor's degrees in engineering fare well in the job market. In a survey of 1999 KU engineering graduates, recent grads with a bachelor's degree in computer science accepted job offers that paid an average of $43,193, and they received an average signing bonus of $3,650. Requirements: Students must have an ACT score of 22 and be in the top 50 percent of their high school class.

In fall 2000, there were 1,139 applications to the school with 774 students accepted — a 68 percent admission rate. Students who want to major in music or dance must interview and audition before they are accepted. The School of Fine Arts includes the departments of art and design, and music and dance. Seventy-two percent of students in the School of Fine Arts are in art/design. The music department has 24 percent of those enrolled, and 4 percent are in the dance program. Students in the art department study painting, sculpture and printmaking. The design department offers courses in industrial design, interior design, graphic design, metals, ceramics, textiles, theater design, illustration and art education. In addition to music performance, the music department offers degrees in music education and music therapy. In the art/design program, first-year students have to complete basic-studies courses such as design and drawing. After that, about three-fourths go into the design school, and the remaining one-fourth go to the art school. Rita Riley, director of undergradu ate studies, said that space sometimes was an issue in allowing people into the School of Fine Arts.

Photo by Justin Schmidt/KANSAN Sculptures on campus pay tribute to University's history, spirit By Lauren Lenter and Brandy Straw Special to the Kanson The University of Kansas is home to many fascinating pieces of sculpted art that contain the history of both the University and the area. "Uncle Jimmy Green," one of the most well-known sculptures on campus, stands in front of Lippincott Hall and shows a teacher giving advice to a student. The teacher is James Wood Green, who at the beginning of his career taught without pay. the beginning of his career taught without pay. "The inscription beneath says that the sculpture is dedicated in memory of Green, "the Student's Counsellor and Friend." The student's identity is a mystery. "Uncle Jimmy Green" was sculpted by Daniel Chester French, who is better known for sculpting Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. "The Pioneer," also known as the "Corn More information A Lawrence man is sculpting 10 bronze figures for the National D-Day Memorial. See page 3C Planter," depicts a man digging and planting corn next to Fraser Hall. It was given to KU in 1904 by Simeon Bell, a pioneer who settled in Kansas in 1856, five years before it became a state. "The Pioneer," a creation of 18th century sculptor Cato the Younger, was cast that same year in Chicago. Three of the eight gargoyles on Dyche Hall, the home of the Natural History Museum, contain the words of the official KU battle cry. "Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU." Each one has a part of the chant carved into its chest. Joseph Roblado Frazee carved the gargoyles without using a model. The gargoyles have been on campus since Dyche Hall was completed in 1902. Dyche Hall also features "The Victory Eagle." anagle protecting its nest. The sculpture is a memorial to Douglas County soldiers who died in World War I. Its original home was along U.S. Highway 40 on the border between Douglas and Leavenworth counties. "It makes sense to place it here," Brad Kemp, assistant director of public affairs for the Natural History Museum, said. "It's an eagle, and we are committed to maintaining its integrity." The oldest building on campus and the home of the Museum of Anthropology, Spooner Hall, has an owl perched at the top of the roof. It symbolizes the wisdom that is found inside. ^ stone tablet in the entry way reads A stone tablet in the entry way reads, "Whoever findeth wisdom findeth life." Henry Van Brunt, the architect of Spooner, probably designed the owl. Spooner was completed in 1894. The Campanile, KU's World War II memorial and bell tower, houses the "Doors of Memory" and the "Doors of Kansas." The 12 bronze plaques, designed by KU alumnus Bernard "Poco" Frazier, replaced wooden doors in 1955. The "Doors of Memory" represent emotions of humanity at war: sorrow, silence, meditation, aspiration, courage and achievement. Graduating students get to see the doors as they walk through the Campanile to Memorial Stadium. The "Doors of Kansas" represent history and idealism. One bronze Jayhawk sits in front of Strong Hall and another sits in front of Adams Alumni Center. The Jayhawk in front of Strong weighs 600 pounds and is nicknamed the Pterodactyl. Elden Tefft, former professor of art, created it. Peter Fillerup designed the four-foot-tall bird in front of Adams Alumni Center, which weighs 350 pounds. The Jayhawk is a favorite of Pramit Patel, Topeka freshman. "I think it symbolizes school pride and is unique." Patel said. One of the more unusual sculptures on campus is "I-70" near Potter Lake. Richard Hollander, a Kansas City sculptor, welded and painted steel to look like cars traveling down a highway. Regina White, Valley Center senior, said she learned about the artwork at orientation, then forget about it. "The only time I noticed them was when I was at orientation and they were pointed out to me," White said. Not all students forget the sculptures. Alec Miller, Des Moines, Iowa, senior, pays attention to them. "They say that this school cares about culture and the arts," Miller said. Red Lyon Tavern 944 Mass. 832-8228 End your parking woes.

Oread Bookshop in the Kansas Union will undergo remodeling next year. The addition of two entrances is among the changes. One entrance will be accessible from the new parking garage, which is key to the Union being more accessible to students and visitors, said David Johnston, marketing coordinator for the Kansas and Burge unions. The other entrance will be inside the Kansas Union. The main stairway will be moved to a more visible spot from the fourth-floor main entrance, which will lead customers to the bookstore located on the second floor. Andy Wessel, Omaha, Neb., junior, finds books for his classes Sunday afternoon at the Mt. Oread Bookshop in the Kansas Union. In conjunction with the Kansas Union, the bookstore will be making changes to help make its entrances more accessible to students and visitors. The bookstore also make interior changes, moving the textbooks to the area where supplies and greeting cards are now. Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN The bookstores' interiors also will undergo changes. The textbooks in the KU Bookstore will be moved to the area where the supplies and greeting cards are now. This is a better layout for textbooks because it is near the loading door, said Mike Reid, director of KU Bookstores. three times more merchandise will be available in the Mt. Oread At the center of the KU Bookstore will be a convenience-type area that will offer snacks, bottled soda and health and beauty items. Reid said the KU Bookstore and Mt. Oread Bookshop were gaining about 5,800 square feet for a total 30,000 square feet with the changes. changes. He estimated the cost would range from $500,000 to $1 million and said funding would come from internal revenues from sales in the store. No student fees will contribute to the construction, he said. The Mt. Oread Bookshop will be reconstructed first and will have a new lounge area. Reid said he hoped the new location would make it more visible. He said he also wanted to add a coffee shop and a fireplace and have the new bookshop open until 7 p.m. He said it would be easier for people to return to campus because parking would be closer. However, Reid said he still had doubts whether students would use the bookshop if it were open later. "We know students like longer hours," he said. "But are they going to want to leave campus and then come back to campus? Or would they rather leave campus and go to some other place in town?" Tammy Noragan, Topeka junior, sad she thought a new Mt. Oread Bookshop was a good idea, espe cically if there were a coffee house, Noragan said she did not like to study in the library and that the new lounge would be a good place to study. - Edited by Warisa Chulindra Fast food could be added to Kansas Union menu By Veronica Rosas Special to the Kansan By Veronica Rosas The third-floor cafeteria at the Kansas Union may get a fastfood outlet by the beginning of January. David Mucci, director of the unions, said he also was talking with McDonald's. David Johnston, marketing coordinator for the Kansas and Burge unions, said several franchises, including Subway, Summit Subs, Wendy's, Burger King and Chic-Fil-A were being considered for addition to the food menu. "What we are considering doing is bringing in a couple of brands, nationally recognized franchises, or taking our existing concepts and branding them better, giving them a more fresh look and jazzing up our food menu." Johnston said. The decision to add a fast-food outlet was made after analyzing the results from research conducted by an ad campaigns class taught by Robert Basow, associate professor of journalism. The class asked students what they liked to eat. The answers were subs, tacos, burgers and Oriental cuisine. He said research by the class indicated that the Kansas Union is perceived as an unenjoyable dining environment because it is located on campus. The survey asked students where they spent most of their free time and where they liked to eat. The students said they spent most of their leisure time at the Kansas Union, Wescoe Terrace and the libraries. "Food is just half the picture," Johnston said. "A big obstacle for us is atmosphere." The Union loses customers to other options because of atmosphere. The dining areas are dark and not ideal for studying or relaxing. With the renovation of the third floor dining area, priorities will be given to lighting and music. "We'd like for it to be a place that people can come study between classes or just hang out and grab a Coke," Johnston said. Angela Korte, Spring Hill senior, said she agreed with the results from the ad campaigns class. She said that if the Union had a restaurant such as Burger King, it would bring more people to the Union because of name recognition. Korte also said people would spend more time there. - Edited by Kathryn Moore Copyright 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Speaking of young people "tempted as they often are by the illusion of an easy and comfortable life, by drugs and pleasure-seeking," the leader of the world's one billion Roman Catholics repeatedly expressed hope during his homily that his listeners would turn to religion — and many to a religious life. PETER G. WILSON Pope John Paul It: urged youth to embrace religion "May every community always have a priest to celebrate the Eucharist," he said. "I ask the Lord, there fore, to raise from among you many holy vocations to the priesthood." It is an urgent appeal particularly for Catholic communities in Italy, where some villages and towns today have to beg for parish priests. The trend prevails throughout the West. A study presented to the United States' National Conference of Catholic Bishops in June found a 20 percent drop in the number of U.S. priests since 1965, despite overall growth in the U.S. population. For the Rev. Romeo Barrion, a Philippine priest in the audience, it was simple: "When technology increases, faith decreases." The pope and his clerics have pointed to a range of reasons: materialism, secularism and fewer Western parents encouraging offspring toward religious vocations. "Shopping, the beach" distracts people from serious duties like parenthood and priesthood. Barrion said. Youth Day banners urged, "Don't be afraid to be the saints of the new millennium." John Paul sought to drive that message home. "Don't be afraid to be saints of the new millennium." Pope John Paul II But with the numbers entering religious orders plunging in the West, it was the minority of developing-world pilgrims at the World Youth Day celebrations who were most likely to answer his direct call to the priesthood. "It used to be where Europe was the source of missionaries to Asia," Barrion said. "Now it's us in the Third World, sending priests to the First World." The 80-year-old pope, looking tired after a candlelight prayer service that stretched near midnight Saturday, returned by helicopter just eight hours later to send the estimated two million World Youth Day pilgrims home with a closing Mass. But he stayed involved and intent during the service. Privacy concerns Internet users The Associated Press NEW YORK — An overwhelming majority of Americans on the Internet worry about businesses and strangers getting personal data about them, yet few take basic precautions while they surf, according to a study released yesterday. In fact, a majority of Internet users are willing to give Web sites the same information they claim they want to keep private, the survey by the Pew Internet and American Life Project found. Much of the worry stems from a fear of the unknown, rather than a sweeping mistrust of Internet businesses, said Lee Rainie, the Pew project's director. The study found new users more concerned about privacy than online veterans. Many Web sites create user profiles containing such data as e-mail addresses, favorite books or clothing sizes. Some sites also track users' surfing habits, often without their knowledge, to better target ads and products. Internet companies argue that such tracking is often performed anonymously and helps them customize sites and content to match users' interest. But only 27 percent of Internet users accept the industry's claim that tracking is helpful. ON THE NET Pew project: http://peiwinet.org Federal Trade Commission Business coalition: http://www.networkadvertising.org http://www.ftc.aov According to the survey, 86 percent of online users are "very concerned" or "somewhat concerned" about others getting their personal information. But only 10 percent of all users set their Web browsers to reject cookies, the basic tools that sites use to track surfing habits. Fifty-six percent do not even know what cookies are, and only 5 percent use special software designed to permit anonymous surfing. And 54 percent of users have chosen to give personal information such as a name or e-mail address, with another 10 percent willing to do so. Divers find no life signs in submarine Such an "opt in" requirement lets users set the terms for when they give personal information. But sites now generally assume such consent unless users specifically "opt out" of such surveillance. The Associated Press Eighty-six percent of Internet users believe sites should ask permission before collecting personal information. MOSCOW — Norwegian divers struggled to open the escape hatch on a Russian nuclear submarine that sank with 118 men aboard, but they found no sign of life Sunday as Russian officials said most of the vessel was flooded in minutes when it went down. The Russian navy has all but ruled out hope that any of the crew remains alive nine days after the Kursk sank. indication of what rescuers are likely to find, Klebanov said there might be a body in the escape chamber. The Norwegian operation appeared to be the first time divers had descended to the Kursk since rescue efforts began a week ago. Russian escape capsules tried to reach the Kursk repeatedly, but the Russian navy reportedly had no skilled divers. The divers worked for most of the day and well into the night. They tried several times to wrest the hatch open with a crane but failed, Russia's RTR television network reported. With hope for survivors all but gone, officials indicated the emphasis was shifting to what caused the tragedy on the Kursk. The divers found signs that some of the 118 crewmen may have tried to get out but were unable to open the escape hatch, Deputy Prime Minister Ilya Klebanov said on RTR. In a grim A probable scenario was that a torpedo in the Kursk's forward compartment blew up, setting off a much bigger explosion. Klebanov said that a World War II mine or a collision with a foreign submarine were possible causes. Klebanov said there were up to three foreign submarines in the area when the Kursk was lost. Conflict between Arabs, Jews rips West Bank town The Associated Press David Wilder, a Jewish settler, says it began when fruits and vegetables flew out of the market, aimed at Jewish worshipers returning home for a quiet Sabbath meal. Whatever version of Saturday's clash you hear, both sides draw the same conclusion: A recent escalation in violence in this troubled West Bank town was caused by last month's Camp David summit. HEBRON, West Bank — Usam Jabarl, a vegetable vendor in Hebron, says the trouble started when Jewish settlers marched in and overturned market stalls. The ancient town, home to 130.000 Palestinians, is known for its religious fervor. Hamas, an extremist Islamic group, does well in elections here. But Hebron is also home to 400 Jews who see themselves as guardians of Judaism's second-holiest city. Parties that advocate emptying Israel and the West Bank of Arabs do well here. Relations reached their lowest point in 1993-94, the year when a series of Jews was killed, and Baruch Goldstein, a Jewish doctor, gunned down 29 Muslim worshipers in a mosque. That act nearly scuttled emerging peace talks. Still, a truce of sorts has been maintained since 1997, when Israel handed much of Hebron to Palestinian control. Israel still administers the quarter in the center of the city where the Jews and about 30,000 Arabs live. Things began to deteriorate on July 15, when Shlitom Arnon — the 14-year-old daughter of Noam Arnon, the Jewish community's leader — claimed she was sexually assaulted by an Arab. That led settlers to attack Arab passers-by and rampage through the market. Israeli troops separated the sides. Jabari said Palestinian vendors in the market started packing up their stalls as soon as they heard of the hit-and-run, knowing that stall-overturning was inevitable. The pattern has repeated itself. On Saturday, the spark was an Arab cab driver hitting a Jewish boy, injuring his leg, and fleeing the scene. The idea of Arabs starting the provocations made no sense, Jabari said — they had everything to lose. Wilder said the settlers couldn't be at fault. "No one would start this just as the Sabbath lunch is beginning," he said. Wilder said it was hard for settlers to accept that the incidents were not part of an organized effort to "There's a limit to how long people can sit and say 'Maybe he didn't mean it,'" he said.

Last week, the thousands of students who make up the University of Kansas descended upon Lawrence. They unloaded cars, unpacked boxes and filled apartments with threadbare couches, lava lamps and Jimi Hendrix posters. Parents of college students hurried through the mega-stores on Iowa Street searching for the perfect futon. Students followed a few steps behind their parents; looking uncomfortable but continually thinking of extra items their rooms absolutely required. Cars crawled through the streets surrounding the University. The drivers looked moodily out, tapping their fingers and searching for the exact apartment where their friends lived. Cell phones rang and enthused "Whazups?!!" floated through the summer air. Custodial staffs put the finishing touches on apartments, student housing units and campus buildings. Stores loaded their windows with merchandise and proclaimed their sales far and wide. Bars pasted up "Welcome Back Students!" banners and prepared for some hectic back-to-school nights. Students — wave following after wave — kept moving into town. The unpacking, the rearranging, the living continued. A new school year was about to begin.

T. J. Killian, one of the calendar's four owners, said more than 4,200 copies were sold last year, the first year it was published. He predicted that nearly 7,000 copies would be sold this year. The 2001: Women of KU Swimsuits Calendar, which costs $12.99, is supposed to be available in stores this month. The calendar has photos of KU women on a beach at South Padre Island, Texas, taken by Leo Chan, Lawrence graduate student. Four of this year's 11 models appeared in last year's calendar. University Models, a modeling agency in Manchester, N.Y., chose the other seven models from more than 150 applicants. Kelly Newman, Derby senior and one of the returning models, said she thought this year's calendar photo shoot was more organized and more efficient than last year. "They've learned a lot about organization and how the modeling world works," Newman said of the student owners and producers of the calendar. Some students question whether the swimsuit calendar is in good taste despite the expected increase in sales, the improvements in organizing and producing the calendar. Erin Keller, Des Moines, Iowa, junior and part-time fashion model, said she didn't care for swimsuits modeling. "I've modeled clothing before," Keller said. "It has everything to do with the dress. I mean, showing off the latest fashions is one thing, but being some pinup in a freshman dorm room is another, and what good could their families possibly think of this?" Other students expressed concern about treatment of the models featured in the calendar. Kathleen Patterson, Olathe senior, said, "They aren't being paid, just flown to the site of the photo shoot." But Kilian disagreed, saying they did everything to make the models comfortable. "We do a very tasteful job, and nobody has ever come to us and protested what we are doing," he said. Angela Hale, first-time calendar model and Cawker City senior, said she agreed that the photos are in good taste and is surprised that others would have a negative opinion about the project. "I can't understand why someone would have a problem with it, they're real tasteful pics," Hale said. "Besides, everyone wears swimsuits in the summer. They're everywhere. It's nothing we wouldn't want our families to see." Not getting naid didn't bother her. Hale said. "It was something to say we did it, just to have fun, and we didn't expect to get paid," she said. Newman said the experience was fun but also work. — Edited by Warisa Chilindra and J. R. Mendaza HuVee CAPITAL CITY BANK FOOD New Hy-Vee store features organic food the new Hye-Ye at 4000 W. Sixth St. features natural products, food samples and Chinese and Italian food. Photo by Justin Schmidt/KANSAN By Talia Rubenstein Special to the Kansan The new Hy-Vee at 4000 W. Sixth St. has the cheapest meal in town. Free samples of snacks, produce and fresh-baked goods are scattered throughout the store. Customers can virtually snack their way to the check-out line. The store, large enough to fit at least two football fields in its 65,000 square feet of space, is not just a place to buy groceries. A shopper can visit the store to dine on ethnic foods, sample new products and get educated about healthy eating. Similar to the Hy-Vee at 3504 Clinton Parkway, the new store offers restaurant-style seating where a customer can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. Chinese and Italian dishes and other hot foods and cold salads are made fresh daily and are available to eat in the store or take home. In what is said to be a trend in grocery stores, the new Hy-Vee contains an extensive health food section, called The Health Market. The Health Market is a grocery store within a grocery store where customers can purchase a wide variety of natural and organic products Hy-Vee's Health Market Manager, Kristen Fellows-Walker, has 10 years of experience working in the natural and organic foods industry. Part of her job is helping customers learn more about natural and organic foods. "What makes us different from other grocery stores is that we are able to offer people most of the natural and organic products that they want within the convenience of a commercial grocery store." Fellows-Walker said. Fellows-Walker said that while other commercial grocery stores in Lawrence carried natural and organic products, the products were not contained in one area but were scattered throughout the store. She also said that commercial stores rarely employed people who were knowledgeable about natural foods. Denise Donly, Lawrence resident, said that she came to Hy-Vee because it was closer and more convenient than other health-food stores in town, such as the Community Mercantile Co-Op. "I can get organic vegetables from The Health Market and regular milk and cereal from the dairy section all in one store," Donly said. "Also, my kids love to come for the samples." Even though Hy-Vee offers some of the same products, Nancy O'Conner, nutrition educator and marketing director of Community Mercantile Co-Op, said the store had not felt the effects of its corporate competition. "We have a secure customer base because people come here looking for more than natural foods," O'Conner said. "We have more to offer than commercial stores because the sale of natural foods is the whole reason that we exist." Hy-Vee Store Director Shawn Brown said that opening another Hy-Vee in Lawrence was a response to its rapidly growing population. He said the level of service is what sets the new Hy-Vee apart from other grocery stores in town. "What has been missing most in this town is a grocery store that takes care of people," Brown said. "I am making it a goal to go out of our way to take care of customers." Brown said he intended to meet this goal by making special accommodations for customers, such as ensuring that they don't have to wait long to check out. He plans to guarantee that all checkout lines are open during the busiest hours between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Some customers worried that the size of the store may be problematic for people who have trouble walking. Liz Mowefy, a Hy-Vee shopper, said her mother had tired easily after walking from one end to the other. Hereford House to 'steak' claim in Lawrence "The store is really big, and until you get used to it, you do a lot of running back and forth." Mowery said. —Edited by Erin McDaniel By Melissa Freedman Special to the Kansan Lawrence will get a little Kansas City flavor in late November. good food and friendly service,he said. The Hereford House will open around Thanksgiving at 4931 W. Sixth St. Other Hereford House restaurants are located in downtown Kansas City, 2 E. 20th St. and in Leawood, 5001 Town Center Dr. Owner Rod Anderson said he wanted to see the Hereford House come to Lawrence because the city is a vibrant growing market. good food and friendly service, he said. The restaurant will occupy more than 1,000 square feet. It will include a full-service bar, a basement wine cellar, a banquet room seating 250 people, and an outdoor mezzanine, a partial balcony between two floors. Anderson said he thought he could fill a niche with casual, fine dining and quality steaks. The Hereford House prides itself on a relaxed atmosphere, Anderson said the restaurant will employ 40 people. In downtown Kansas City, the lunch menu at the Hereford House has appetizers ranging in price from $2.75 for a cup of soup to $9.95 for shrimp cocktail. Salads range from $3.50 for a house salad to $11.25 for a salmon salad. Main entrees range from $6.95 for a grilled chicken sandwich to $17.95 for a Kansas City strip steak. The dinner menu is more extensive than the lunch menu. Appetizer choices include items such as stuffed mushrooms for those less daring and escargot for those who want to try something new and different. Steaks range in price from $18.95 for a 16-oz ribeye steak to $39.95 for a 9-oz filet and lobster. Anderson said the most popular item was the Kansas City strip steak. Going to dinner at the Hereford House might be expensive, but Tony Berg, Chicago senior, said it was worth it. "I will gladly pay for such a good quality steak with a great wait staff," Berg said.

Amy Watkins, 26, was killed in a robbery as she was walking to her home in the Prospect Heights section of Brooklyn. She was stabbed in the back with a 10-inch kitchen knife on March 8. David Jamison, 27, was charged Aug. 17 with first-degree murder for the allegedly stabbing Watkins. Felix Rodriguez, 20, was charged Aug. 8 with second-degree murder for allegedly helping Jamison. District Attorney Charles Hynes has 120 days from the time Jamison is arraigned to decide whether to pursue a capital case. No date for the arraignment was set. Hynes has sought the death penalty in seven cases. Lawrence Watkins told reporters he wanted a severe prison sentence for his child's killer. "The death penalty would almost be an easy way out," he said. Police said a third man, a Haitian immigrant, was involved, but no charges had been filed against him. Officials said he might be deported. After more than a year on the case, police arrested the three men on Aug. 2 after receiving a Crime Stoppers tip that Jamison had bragged about killing Watkins. Prosecutors said that Jamison agreed, during an interrogation, to give a videotaped confession. Jamison's attorney, Samuel Gregory, said he would challenge that statement and that his client denied the charges. Rodriguez denied the charges as well. According to police: According to police On the night of her death, Watkins "Nothing brings her back, but it's better that they aren't out there preying on people." Alice Lieberman Associate professor of social welfare had taken the subway home from the Bronx, where she was an intern at a community center. As she was walking to her apartment from the subway, Jamison, Rodriguez and the third man saw her and decided she would be easy to rob. One of the men stood as a lookout while the other two approached Watkins. One of them tried to take her handbag, and she struggled with him. Jamison then stabbed her in the back. The men got away with only a few dollars from the robbery. Watkins was raised in Topeka and moved to New York in 1997 after graduating with a degree in social welfare from the University. Alice Lieberman, associate professor of social welfare, said that Watkins was committed to helping others. "You can't describe Amy and do her justice." Lieberman said. "She very clearly saw the inequities in the world and was very committed to doing something about them." Lieberman said she was surprised when she learned that arrests had been made, but that it did not provide a sense of closure. "Nothing brings her back, but it's better that they aren't out there preying on people," she said. Watkins was a graduate student at Hunter College School of Social Work in New York studying community organizing and planning. Irene Schaefer, assistant to the dean at the school, said that a scholarship fund of more than $50,000 had been formed in Watkins' name. The school is in the process of awarding the first scholarship. Derek Prater contributed to this story — Edited by Erin Adamson Series offers leadership training KU Lead aims to unite student organizations By Keeley Thurston Special to the Kansar Students at the University of Kansas who want to develop leadership skills can go to the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center in the Kansas Union for help. "Any person can use the skills taught in leadership training, whether he or she will be a leader or a follower," said Aaron Quisenberry, assistant director of the center. "A person will need them to survive." The Organizations and Leadership Center sponsors three leadership conferences and a lecture series during the academic year. hour programs about every two weeks throughout the year, alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 6 p.m. in the Kansas and Burge unions. The series will begin in October. The lecture series has one- The first of the conferences, the Student Leadership Institute, is a one-day conference for established leaders at the University and will be Sunday, Sept. 3, in Topeka. The conference focuses on community development, and students can learn new communication techniques, attend workshops and expand their network of other KU leaders. The LeaderShape Institute is for students who already have become leaders at the University. Students must apply through the Organizations and Leadership Center. It will take place for one week in January, tentatively set for Sunday, Jan. 7, to Friday, Jan. 12, at the Paul Oaks conference center north of Desoto. The conference emphasizes the key leadership issues of vision, partnerships, integrity and results. The last conference of the year, the Blueprints conference, will be Saturday, March 3, in the Kansas Union. Students can apply for this in the Organizations and Leadership Center. They will learn the fundamentals of leadership, enhance skills they already have and learn new skills. Jacob Eastman, Lawrence senior, and Jeff Geurts, Oklahoma City, Okla., junior, started KU Lead in Spring 1999 after they attended the LeaderShape conference. "These students are the young Jedi," Quisenberry said. KU Lead is an organization in the Organizations and Leadership Center that promotes existing leadership opportunities for involved students and tries to help unite student organizations. "Leadership is a process, not a person," said Diana Carlin, professor in communication studies and dean of the Graduate School and International Studies. Carlin and other faculty members have proposed a leadership studies minor through the Department of Communications Studies. The course of study would emphasize understanding and appreciation of cultural differences. Students would take classes in five areas: leadership studies, communications, ethics, community development and leadership, and diversity and culture. The requirements for students to be accepted into the program would include completing 28 hours of college credit, evidence of leadership interest and potential based on school and university activities, grade point average and an essay. - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Schools expect few changes in standards The Associated Press TOPEKA — The State Board of Education's expected ideological flip-flop on evolution is likely to have limited impact on Kansas' 304 school districts. to undergo a major change for the second time in less than two years. The board's vote a year ago to play down the importance of evolution in public schools was the big issue in the primary election on Aug. 1, but local districts had largely ignored the decision. And now, with the defeat of three conservative GOP candidates in the primary election for state board seats, the board's majority is likely to be made up of moderate Republicans or Democrats who have vowed to overturn the new standards. Five members will be elected to the board Tuesday, Nov. 7. The standards are guidelines for what should be taught in science classrooms and serve as the basis for statewide student tests, scheduled to be introduced next year. And when a new board is seated in January, the standards are expected Mark Tallman, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of School Boards, said he had heard of no school district that changed its lesson plans or science textbooks after the board's 6-4 vote to de-emphasize evolution. After the primary, Marjorie Kaplan, superintendent of the Shawnee Mission school district in Johnson County, said there would be no change in what students there were taught if the board reversed its decision. The evolution debate Kaplan said biology teachers in her district, the state's second largest with 31,000 students, continued to teach evolution. "We're trying to teach what we think our students need to learn," she said. Even the Pratt district, whose school board is considering adopting curriculum standards allowing discussion of alternative theories to evolution, is not worried about having to make changes. Last fall, Pratt's school board considered including as a supplement to its science curriculum a textbook that includes intelligent design, the idea that the universe requires an intelligent creator. Superintendent Ken Kennedy said the district intended to keep evolution in its curriculum. Although the board did not vote on whether to add the textbook, Kennedy said it was considered because of requests from people in the community. After the Aug. 1 primary, Sue Gamble, a moderate who defeated incumbent Linda Holloway, said she already had discussed with other moderates the future of the standards. "We expect to have a very busy January." Gamble said. "This has been a bone of contention among all of us as we've talked over the past several months." - Edited by Amy Randolph Get Connected ResNet ResNet.ukans.edu Who: -KU Residence Hall Students (Towers and Scholarship Halls too) What: -Sign up for Resididence Hall Network Connections for Internet service -Ethernet card sale (necessary for your Network Connection) -RCC's (Residential Communication Consultants) will provide on-site help with your Network Connection. -Information about Campuslink, KU personal long distance calling Where RCC's will be in each Residence Hall move-in weekend from 10am to 7pm & When: -Jayhawker Towers (Hawks Nest) Aug. 17, 10am-7pm -Scholarship Halls (Amini I Lobby) Aug 19 & 20, 10am-7pm Contact RCC's directly @ 864-9320 or learn more at Resnet.ukans.edu BRAIN FOOD Want it?

The Democrats' was not, tensions simmering. President Clinton intruding George W. Bush got a surge in the polls. Two weeks later, Al Gore did, too. It will be midweek before the surveys begin to settle down and provide a reliable late-summer snapshot of the race for the White House. The debates lie ahead. So too, the intensive advertising. "We all better take a deep breath. It's not even Labor Day vet." Bush said as the Bush: The GOP convention showcased a unified party. THE FEDERAL RESERVE campaign left the competing conventions behind and pointed toward the fall. Beyond the pageantry, the two parties staged conventions in different ways as they grappled with different strategic concerns. The GOP program in Philadelphia was meticulously scripted from beginning to end to appeal to voters in the middle. Bush arrived in Philadelphia at the head of a party hungry for victory and unusually unified. He had long ago wrapped up his party's nomination and secured the support of his chief rival, Sen. John McCain. The GOP's conservative congressional leaders played scarcely a role as Bush's convention planners turned the podium over to Colin Powell, a black man widely rumored to be Bush's choice for secretary of state; Condoleezza Rice, a black woman who is his top national security adviser; and Rep. Jim Kolbe, the only openly gay Republican in Congress, who spoke not about gay rights, but free trade. "An inclusion illusion," the Rev. Jesse Jackson sniped from the Democratic National Convention platform a few weeks later. Anticipating Gore's desire to step out on his own after eight years as Bill Clinton's understudy, GOP vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney sought to create a mental image of the two men frozen in time. "Somehow we will never see one without thinking of the other." he said. Two weeks later, in Los Angeles, Gore did what he could to rip that picture in half, without offending the Clinton supporters he will need this fall. "I stand here tonight as my own man, and I want you to know me for who I truly am," he told the delegates and the nation in his acceptance speech. The speech was crafted also to define Gore as the same person he could find. for working families and against the powerful interest, and contained a detailed set of policy differences with Bush for the fall. It was also the final act of a convention where the seams showed. With Gore eager to underscore values, California Rep. Loretta Sanchez had to be pushed publicly by party officials to move a fund-raiser away from the Playboy Mansion. C. H. M. Gore: The hopeful's speech focused on working families. With Gore eager to stress his historic selection of a Jew, Sen. Joseph Lieberman, as his running mate, Rep. Maxine Waters of California questioned the Connecticut senator's support of affirmative action. She later said she was satisfied with Lieberman. Edited by Clay McCuistion Web sites offer votes to highest bidder The Associated Press NEW YORK — Who says money can't buy votes? Six people offered to sell their vote for president on the Internet last week, fetching as much as $10,100 before online auctioneer eBay canceled the bidding. Meanwhile, another site is soliciting undecided voters to offer as a block to the highest bidder for each state. By Friday, bidders already offered $100 each for New York and California, which together have 87 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency. Federal and state laws prohibit the sale of votes, and eBay said it is cooperating with investigators from the Justice Department and Washington state, the home of one attempted seller. "We'd like to think we've got a good sense of humor, ... but these are people who are dealing with violations of federal law," eBay representative Kevin Pursglove said. "It's very serious." An eBay user first notified the company about a sale Wednesday night, Pursglove said. He said eBay found and canceled others on Thursday because they violate company policies prohibiting sales of illegal goods. The site does not preapprove auctions, but will stop them if they violate its policies. One offering under the header "Vote of One US Citizen" received 20 bids, the highest for $10,100. Another individual got one bid for $1, and a third received a bid for 99 cents. Three others had no bids, according to eBav records. Justice Department officials did not return a call Friday about the auctions. Advocates of overhauling campaign finance already believe votes are for sale — to the largest campaign contributors. Sheila Krumholz, research director at the Center for Responsive Politics in Washington, said these attempted sales could be no more than an expression of frustration with the political system. "Choices and votes are being made or at least impacted by money and by moneyed interests," she said. "Everybody knows money has had an undeniable impact in the system today." But Deborah Phillips, chairman of the Voting Integrity Project in Arlington, Va., worried that such efforts undermine trust in elections, even if they are no more than an expression of frustration. "It is just further contributing to this increased sense of cynicism that's so pervasive in America today — that my vote doesn't matter," she said. "It does matter a lot, and ordinary citizens should be outraged by this." Voteaction.com, the site taking bids by state, promises to collect votes by absentee ballot, verify them and mail them "to the appropriate election district." "The election industry is spending hundreds of millions of dollars in an attempt to influence the presidential election," organizers said in a statement. "This system is an inefficient waste of money for the candidates and their supporters." The site aims to improve the system "by bringing the campaign contributors' money directly to the voters." - Edited by Clay McCusition Heat got you down??

The plan, which began July 1, already has around $4 million in 1,500 accounts, which Shallenburger said showed the power of word-of-mouth about a good idea. "We are right on track, and we have done all that without newspaper ads or direct mail," he said. "We have done it all without any real advertising." Shallenburger said the goal of his office, which administers the Learning Quest program, is to have 14,000 accounts established in its first year. He said that college is the second-biggest thing people save for after retirement. "If we can get people to save for college who otherwise wouldn't do it, you get more people in college who otherwise wouldn't go," Shallenburger said. "And that is nothing but positive for the state." The treasurer said he and his staff had traversed the state visiting about 15 newspapers to explain the program to editors. He said more visits with newspapers and civic clubs were planned. "The plan is up and running, and we are going out now explaining it," he said. "You can't market this stuff without getting some ink in the paper. By and large, we are happy that the editors feel it is a good thing to do." American Century Investments of Kansas City, Mo., handles the investment of money and manages the program under a seven-year contract with the treasurer's office. Individuals will have an option of conservative, moderate or aggressive investment tracks. Under the program, a person can put as little as $25 a month into an account for a child's college education. People also can start an account with a lump-sum payment of $500. The law allows up to $127,000 in accounts for a single child, though that amount likely will grow because it's tied to the cost of a four-year college education in the Midwest. In addition, separate accounts can be started by other relatives or even family friends on behalf of the child. Taxes on the earnings from the accounts are deferred until the money is used. Kansans also receive state income tax deductions up to $2,000 for individuals and $4,000 for married couples -- for the amount of money they put into each account. Edited by Kimberly Thompson Kansas outscores national average on ACT The Associated Press TOPEKA — Kansas students scored higher on average than their national counterparts on the latest ACT tests, an annual report by the testing organization said. The report, released Thursday, said the average composite score in Kansas was 21.6, compared to the national average of 21. The highest possible score is 36 on the tests, formerly known as the American College Testing assessments. Education Commissioner Andy Tompkins said that he was pleased with the ACT results but added that the state still needs to address differences in test scores along ethnic and socioeconomic lines. "I love the good news,but we've got to still do better. We have kids who aren't learning well." "I love the good news, but we've got to still do better," he said. "We Andy Tompkins Kansas Education Commissioner have kids who aren't learning well. Over time, I sure wish we could reduce those gaps." With the 21.6 average, Kansas students ranked first among five states where at least 75 percent of the students took the college entrance exam. Education officials say as more students take the tests, a state's average composite score typically drops. In Kansas, 77.5 percent of graduating seniors took the tests, up 3.5 percent from 1999. Nationality, 38 percent of seniors graduating this year took the tests. graduating this year took the tests. The average composite score for Kansas students increased 0.1 in the past year, while the national average held steady. Harold Voth, State Board of Education chairman,'said he was particularly pleased that Kansas scores improved while more students took the tests. "That's great news," said Voth, of Haven. Kathy Toelkes, representative for the Department of Education, pointed out that the number of ON THE WEB http://www.acl.org Kansas students taking the ACT who had completed college preparatory course work increased from 54 percent to 57 percent in the past year. She also said the average ACT score in Kansas had exceeded the national average the past several years. "Overall, it's some encouraging news," Toolkes said. The ACT, which measures skills in English, math, reading and science, is one of two major entrance examinations.

Monday, August 21, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section A·Page 23 Nation/World Final Survivor to be revealed Wednesday The Associated Press NEW YORK — Well, she's gotna be; Rudy, Richard, Kelly or Susan? If you can't place these names, if "Tagi" and "Pagong" don't ring a bell, you must have squandered your summer at the beach, ballpark or backyard grill. On Wednesday, host Jeff Probst will preside over the multiround elimination process that will decide the show's one true survivor — the one who will have a million bucks. Everybody else has been binging on Survivor, CBS' Darwinistic campout. And come Wednesday, after 12 tension-building episodes, the mystery — who won this crazy game show? — will be revealed. It's been a real endurance test, and not just for the 16 castaways who marooned themselves on that island near Borneo. What was it about the show that kept viewers watching all summer? What inspired the viewing parties with tropical drinks and fake bugs in the guacamole dip? The heated weekly debate over who will be voted off the island? One attraction is the ritual punishment of the tribal council vote. Watching someone banished is cruel fun. "People enjoy being mean," says Steven Reiss, professor of psychology and psychiatry at Ohio State University. "It's tough to acknowledge, but it explains a lot of human behavior. And we need relatively harmless outlets for that." Pulitzer Prize-winning TV writer Tom Shales condemned *Survivor* as "a worthless piece of crap." Other critics who decry so-called reality TV, however, make a sporting exception for *Survivor*. They like the eye-popping scenery; the slick production values that juice up the story as it naturally unfolds; the love 'em, hate 'em cast of characters; the psychological intrigue; the subversive alliances. Each castaway must work to guarantee the others' support while contriving to do them in. "This is like an extreme version of an office or a large family," executive producer Mark Burnett said. Survivor started with a bang May 31, then saw its audience get even bigger. Perched in the Nielsen top spot every week since its fourth broadcast, it drew its largest audience yet last week — 28.7 million viewers. Chris Loria was among them. A real estate professional from Riverside, Calif., he loves talking about Survivor at work. He prowls the Survivor Web site. And with his satellite dish, he catches the East Coast feed three hours earlier. As for who won it, that actually was decided back on April 20, the show's 39th and final day on the island. Since then, remarkably, the network has managed to keep the secret — despite no end of attempts, particularly by computer hackers, to unveil it. The conclusion plays out at 7 p.m. Wednesday, to be followed two hours later by an hour-long live union chat with all 16 castaways. "I think the oversell of the drama is part of the fun," said Probst, who will announce the results. Burnett also is developing Destination Mtr, which would blast a contestant into outer space. And in January, immediately after CBS Super Bowl telecast, his Survivor 2 will premiere, taped in the Australian outback. —Edited by Amy Randolph Brown's SHOE Fit Co.

"Each year, we've moved up within the conference," Bechard said. "And this year we would love to continue our standing within the conference, and the ultimate goal would be an NCAA tournament bid." But in order to make those goals happen, Beachard's Jayhawks have some big shoes to fill. Kansas no longer has the services of Amanda Reves and Mary Beth Albrecht, who ended their careers last season ranking first and second in school history in kills. The Jayhawks lost five players from last season, and Bechard said some players on this year's team would have to step up to fill the void. "This year we have four seniors, some with extensive experience and others without extensive experience." Bechard said. Those seniors — Sara Kidd, outside hitter, Danielle Geronymo, outside hitter/middle blocker, Nancy Bell, outside hitter, and Amy Myatt, outside hitter — along with Molly LaMere, junior setter — should be a solid core for the 'Hawks, who finished seventh in the Big 12 Conference in 1999, Bechard said. And although Bechard said he was pleased with last year's conference finish, he said he would like to maintain the trend of improvement that has come so easily the past two seasons. In fact, moving up one spot and into the top half of the conference would be enough. "The Big 12 is just a premiere conference in the country." Bechard said. "And on the strength of our conference, the six top teams the past two years have gone to the NCAAs." And all it could take to move up into the upper half of the Big 12 is for the team to pull out and win the squeaker matches. "We need to find a way to finish in those close matches, and that could come with a little confidence," Bechard said. "We need to win those matches that could make something happen." Bechard has been brainstorming ways to improve his team's confidence, and during last Friday's practice, Bechard struck gold when he shuttled the team to the Stone Nature Center in Topeka. There, the girls participated in a nature/obstacle course that had them climbing over walls and running a gauntlet of activities designed to improve trust and team work. "It was a really team-building experience." Bell said. "Everybody completed the goal that they wanted to achieve with the help of other people. It was amazing how connected we felt afterwards." ■ Nancy Bell Sr. Outside Hitter 5'10" VOLLEYBALL ROSTER Amy Billings Fr. Setter 5'10" ■ Jordan Garrison Fr.

Photo by Brad Dreier/ KANSAN Assembling the puzzle Kansas football team continues to rebuild By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan Sportswriter It's just puzzling how Terry Allen has his football team talking. new veter but, each Typical pre-game season mantra goes like this: The team is confident. There are newcomers, and there are veterans. It's a long season, but each team swears it will take it one game at a time. Oh sure, some players recite the lines that appear to be out of the Athlete's Bible on How To Talk to the Media. But this year's Jayhawks are entertaining. Allen rubs his head and rolls his eyes sometimes when players boast only of themselves. Still, there's no reason to worry that senior safety Carl Nesmith (aka The Butcher) wants a section of his own where fans wear white aprons with blood (fake, we're still assuming) and clutch meat cleavers (real, we're assuming if it's against K-State). Allen, very quotable himself, wants his players to speak out and be individuals. Show pride in being a Jayhawk and being yourself, he figures, but also don't forget the rest of the team. This is where the Kansas football puzzle comes in, and every player is talking about it. Freshman fullback Daniel Coke is a piece of the puzzle, as is sophomore backup quarterback Jonas Weatherbie. Doesn't matter whether you're a backup or a gamebreaker. "Every player is important on this team." "Every player is important on the field." J The image is a black and white photo featuring a person in a sports uniform, likely from an American football game. The background consists of a pattern of puzzle pieces, suggesting a theme related to puzzles or a jigsaw game. The individual is wearing a helmet and seems to be on the field, although details are not clearly visible due to the overlay of puzzle pieces. The text at the bottom left corner reads: "Inside the hoop." Allen said. "I don't want any one player to think they're bigger than the team because that's not true." and durable. He is still not a bigger piece than any of his teammates, he said. team because that Remember, Allen only said bigger. Moran Norris, senior running back, finally found the position he was destined to play after three years of switches that resulted in more wasted time than MTV. He bench presses more than most of his teammates, and he is also fast But consider Norris and quarterback Dylan Smith cornerstones of this puzzle. They don't Kansas football coach Terry Allen is piecing together his 2000 team. Senior quarterback Dylan Smith may be one of the key offensive pieces in the Jayhawks' puzzle.

Kansas soccer beats up Baker By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter The Kansas women's soccer team punished Baker with 54 goal attempts while limiting Baker's attempts to only one in a 3-0 exhibition match victory Saturday at the Baker University camp in Baldwin City. Despite the domination, coach Mark Francis gave a little homework to his girls. "It was OK. We did some good things," he said. "But finishing wasn't very good today. A number of shots that we had there weren't on target. We need to get more shots on target." Two of the three Jayhawks goals were made by senior midfielder Colleen Colvin. The first came in the 53rd minute, when Colvin's header off senior midfielder Meghann Haven's cross rocketed into Baker's goal. "Meghann and I made eye contact, and she knew where I was going to," Colvin said. "Her cross is usually right on, so it's at the right place at the right time." A breeze assisted her second goal. "I was going to cross," she said. "And the wind just carried it in, and the goalkeeper hit-mit it." it went in." Colvin is third in scoring in the program's history with 22 career points, and eight came last year. In the seventh minute, junior forward Melanie Schroeder made an 18-yard shot that allowed Kansas to play comfortably for the rest of the game. The defenders didn't get much attention Saturday, but Francis didn't forget to praise them, including the goalkeepers. "The keepers didn't get much to do, but they did a good job communicating and organizing the backs," he said. Francis was also pleased with the performance of the newcomers. Although freshman midfielder Maggie Mason didn't score, she kept attacking and threatening the goal until a minor injury forced her to leave the field. "I thought Maggie did well," Francis said. "All new kids did a good job." Kansas opens the 2000 regular season Friday against Northwestern in Evanston, Ill., and Francis said the team had some things to work on based on Saturday's game. "We're just looking to improve this performance for the next game," Francis said. "So just one game at a time." -Edited by Kathryn Moore Basketball players benefit from traveling the world By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter For the Kansas men's basketball team, the summer of 2000 was all about traveling. Not the act of walking with the basketball, but world travel — members of the team traveled to three continents and Hawaii to hone their skills. But the biggest news of all was a trip that didn't take place. On July 6, coach Roy Williams officially turned down an offer to coach at North Carolina, ending a week of speculation that he would take the job. Williams' decision to stay will put an extra spring in the Jayhawk's steps this season, said sophomore forward Nick Collison. "There's definitely an extra kick of excitement," Collison said. "It's almost like we have a new coach, ever though he's staying, because of all the added excitement." Collison said he expected that added excitement to carry Kansas through its off-season workouts to the Jayhawks' first exhibition game Nov. 1. The team returned to campus this week and will begin off-season workouts immediately. The Jayhawks will lift weights and play pick-up games almost daily in preparation for the upcoming season. 'The pressure on the Jayhawks for the 2000-01 season is immense, considering the return of Williams and some preseason rankings that have the Jayhawks in the top five nationally. "We're going to be a lot better," Collison said. "The main reason we struggled last year was inexperience, since a lot of guys hadn't been there before. The fans are definitely going to expect a lot."

LION TRACK Track coach adds five assistants to staff New Kansas track and field coach Stanley Redwine added a brand new set of assistant coaches to his team, replacing former head coach Gary Schwartz's crew of event coaches. Redwine's new staff includes distance coach Doug Clark, horizontal jumps coach Milan Donley, vertical jumps coach Brian Ferry, throws coach Doug Reynolds and multi-events coach Mary Beth Idoux. Clark and Ferry follow Redwine from the University of Tulsa while Donley comes from East Tennessee State University. Reynolds hails from Boise State University and recently finished fourth at the Olympic trials in the javelin. Idoux is a Jayhawk alum, most recently serving as a fitness director for the Athletic Club of Overland Park. — Sarah Warren BASEBALL Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. New recruits hail from nearby areas Out of the Jayhawks' five new recruits, four are from Kansas or Missouri — showing coach Bobby Randall's desire for local talent. "There were not too many kids in the state of Kansas that went to Division I schools, but we got some." Randal said. SOLUTIONS Kansas inked outfielder Kevin Farmer, a junior college transfer from Allen County Community College; Wamego infielder Travis Metcalf; Olathe first-baseman Adrian Jones; Independence, Mo., pitcher David Anderson; and Omaha pitcher Chris Smart. Kansas finished the 2000 season 25-30, with a 10-20 Big 12 Conference record. Amanda Kaschube Smart, a 6-foot-4 right-handed hurler, struck out 61 batters as a senior and walked only 13 in 54 innings pitched. He'll join older brother Pete, who is a senior, on the mound. Pete recorded a team-high seven wins for Kansas last season.

The Associated Press Orlando's kick wins ArenaBowl ORLANDO, Fla. — The Orlando Predators won the ArenaBowl for the second time in three years yesterday, beating the Nashville Kats 41-38 on David Cool's 19yard field goal as time expired. Connell Maynor threw for four touchdowns and Cool redeemed himself with the game-winning kick after missing two extra points and three field goals, helping Nashville stay in the game after a slow start. Orlando, appearing in its third straight Arena Football League title game under coach Jay Gruden, built a 29-7 lead before the Kats scored 23 consecutive points to go ahead 30-29 early in the third quarter. The Predators regained the lead on Cool's 38-yard field goal, but the kicker missed the extra point after Orlando (14-3) scored again to take a 38-30 lead with 12:23 remaining. Nashville set up the dramatic finish with a touchdown and 2-point conversion with just more than five minutes to go. Maynor, voted the game's Most Valuable Player, was 17 of 28 for 202 yards, including four of six for 34 yards on the game-winning 35-yard drive. The Predators ran the ball four straight plays before calling a time-out with 1.7 seconds left, giving Cool the opportunity to become the first player to decide an ArenaBowl on the final snap. The kicker, who earlier missed attempts of 52, 57 and 22 yards, set off a wild celebration among the crowd of 15,989. He was mobbed by teammates, music blared and confetti dropped from the ceiling of the TD Waterhouse Centre. The AFL title was the sixth for Gruden as a player or coach. He won four ArenaBowls as quarterback for the Tampa Bay Storm, and his two championships as a coach ties him for second-place on the career list with Danny White. The Predators beat Tampa Bay in the ArenaBowl two years ago, but lost the 1999 game to Albany. Nashville (12-6) was 8-1 on the road before yesterday's game, but hurt its chances for a third straight playoff upset by allowing a safety and losing two fumbles while Orlando was building its 22-point lead. 5 HEY STUDENTS...JOIN THE HAWK CLUB!

Photo by Brad Dreier /KANSAN New coach in the dark about team's ability By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter About five seconds into his opening cross country practice, first-year head coach Stanley Redwine couldn't help but feel like the new guy in town. With his players waiting patiently in the dark for practice to begin, Redwine could only smile as he unsuccessfully struggled to turn on the lights at Anschutz Sports Pavilion. The men's and women's cross country teams began their seasons early Saturday morning under an entirely new coaching staff. Redwine doesn't quite know what to expect from his teams this year, but he said he was confident that they'd get the maximum performances out of their abilities. "As coaches, we're definitely excited for the season," Redwine said. "We don't know too much about our individuals, but if we work hard as individuals, as well as a team, we should do some things." Redwine took over the head coaching duties in cross country and track at Kansas after six years coaching at the University of Tulsa. Before Tulsa, he was an assistant at the University of Arkansas. During his running career, Redwine was a four-time All-American at Arkansas. His career peaked and ended in 1996 as he finished fifth in the 800-meter run at the 1996 U.S. Olympic Trials. Mike Clark, who served as Redwine's assistant coach at Tulsa, will be an assistant coach for the Jayhawks this season. Brian Ferry also was hired recently to assist the team. Redwine particularly is looking forward to the first few weeks of practice. He said he hoped to use the time as a way to gauge the talent for this season. He said he knew the beginning of the season would be difficult, especially because he had seen so few of his runners in action. “Well, at least after today, we know how to stretch,” Redwine said. “We're all still learning — players and coaches. It's way too early to really determine what kind of team we are going to have. Our coaches haven't seen many of the athletes, so it's going to be tough.” A change in coaching hasn't changed the attitude of most of the runners, said Charlie Gruber. Denver junior. "All of the runners are so excited for the new coaching staff. There's so much excitement here," Gruber said. "The coaches' have been great about talking with the few of us that they've talked to. Everybody's getting a lot of attention." There are advantages to Redwine's inexperience with the team. One of the best perks of being a new coach, according to Redwine, is the fact that he hasn't seen any of the runners yet and has a very objective mind when it comes to this year. "I can't really determine who the leaders are going to be this year or who will step up for us because I just don't know," he said. "I don't want to limit anybody at all. Everyone will get a chance this year." - Edited by Lori O'Toole Seasoned squad gives teams strength By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter And better results come with a better attitude. With more than half of last season's men's and women's cross country teams returning, this year's squad promises to field better results. The new attitude, along with the new coaching staff for this year's squads, has produced a new way of thinking for the season to come. "The excitement around here is big," junior Charlie Gruber said. "We're looking to work real hard this year and have a great season." Gruber, from Denver. Colo., is the top runner returning from last year's men's team that placed 11th out of 20 teams in the District V Championships. The men's team also returns top runners Brent Behrens, Atalissa, Iowa, junior; Pete Prince, Lake Elmo, Minn., sophomore; and Brian Blachly, Paola junior. Gruber placed 43rd in the District V Championships and is looking to improve on his performances from last year. He participated in the U.S. Stanley Redwine "We just need to train hard, and good things will happen for us.I'll have a better idea in a week or so just how good we can be." cross country coach Olympic Trials during the summer and said the summer competition helped to keep him in shape for this year. "The trials are where I really started building up my running again," Gruber said. "It seems like everyone has kept in pretty good shape. It might take a little longer for some of us because all the training is progressive." First-year coach Stanley Redwine said he knew the runners had been active during the summer. He said he was positive the only way to get into shape was to run — and then run some more. "We know that a lot of our runners might not be in the best shape right now, but really it's the same at every school," he said. "It's just that some schools train harder in the season. That's where the difference is." The women's cross country team returns all but two of its top eight runners this season, so expectations are higher. The women finished 20th out of 25 teams last year in the District V Championships. "We just need to train hard, and good things will happen for us," Redwine said. "I'll have a better idea in a week or so just how good we can be." ROSS OZHO Keely Malone. Lawrence sophomore, finished 59th at the District V Championships and leads a potentially great team of six returning runners from last season. Both cross country teams will open up with a home meet at Rim Rock Farm on Saturday, Sept. 9. Redwine said his teams could go as far they wanted to go. "As long as we give our all, we'll have a great season," he said. - Edited by Lori O'Toole 1996 WASHINGTON 1996 Courtney Deutsch, Prior Lake, Minn., junior, goes through extensive stretching before practice starts.

Photo by Brad Dreier/KANSAN Track athlete returns after Olympic trial experience By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com Kansas sportwriter Charlie Gruber gave his family quite the summer vacation—a surprise trip to Sacramento, Calif. In mid-August, the Gruber family headed to the Golden State to watch Charlie participate in the 800-meter and 1,500-meter runs at the U.S. Olympic trials. Gruber, who in his three seasons at Kansas has racked up four Big 12 Conference titles — including two in the 1,500 meters — also gained entrance to the entrance to the trials during a stint in a USA Track and Field developmental group. The group of six athletes competed in the CanAm Series early in the summer. Gruber and his five teammates ran in three of the five series meets in the United States and Canada. Gruber qualified for the trials by running a 1:46.99 in the 800 meters at a meet in Boston and then running the 1,500 meters in 3:41.2 while later competing in Maine. And then it was off to the trials. 'HAWKS AT THE TRIALS For the United States: or the United States: Charlie Gruber ran in the 1,500- and 800-meter but failed to reach the finals. Andrea Branson competed in the pole vault, but failed to reach height. For Canada: Scott Russell placed first in the javelin. Andrea Bulat placed second in the javelin. However, the two athletes did not reach Olympic qualifying marks and therefore are not yet stated to be sent to Sydney as part of the Canadian Olympic team. They await a decision from the Canadian Olympic governing body. "I didn't run very well, but it was a good experience." Gruber said. "It was just something to tuck away and tell stories about 40 years from now." Running at the trials was just the tip of the iceberg on Gruber's cool experience scale; track and field superstars were running rampant. "Everybody who was anybby in USA Track and Field was there," he said. "It was nice to see all the faces that I've read about." In fact, his entire experience became a psuedo-athletic awakening for Gruber. "I think that one thing that going to the trials did was open up my eyes," he said. "There's more out there than the Big 12. I have different expectations of myself now. It kind of made me start looking at track and field after I graduate, rather than looking at my senior year as the end." New track and field coach Stanley Redwine said he couldn't be happier to have an athlete with trials experience running in his cross country and track and field programs. "We're excited about having those Olympic-quality athletes," Redwine said. "Their experience is a great one to bring to the table for the athletes and the program." With his track season just ending, Gruber began cross country practice last Saturday, running 62 miles a week after a short recuperation. "I'm just trying to get back into shape and into a competitive mindset," he said. "And cross country sets up for track season really well." Edited by Lori O'Toole Tan for as little as 50¢ a day!

The Nebruskers, who are returning 20 starters from last year, are expected to continue strong this season. Kansan file photo. Does anyone have any kryptonite hand? sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter By Michael Riga Because that may be the only way to beat the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the 2000 season. 2000 season. Just when everyone hopped off the Cornhusker bandwagon following a 9-4 psuode-debacle in 1998, Nebraska came out of the chutes last season and produced a 12-1 season that culminated with a 31-21 defeat of Tennessee in the Flesta Bowl. What's scary is the fact that the Cornhuskers return twenty — yes, twenty — starters from 1999, including seven preseason All-Big 12 Conference selections. All this makes Nebraska the preseason favorite by most college football magazines from Philadelphia to Puget Sound to win the national championship. "Our focus is on becoming number one," linebacker Carlos Polk said. But the expectations can also become a burden, coach Frank Solich said. "The expectations will be there," he said. "And there is no way to control that. I think our players are confident, but it is impossible to predict how the ball will bounce." Funny, because bouncing balls — or lack thereof — will be one of the themes along Nebraska's run toward the national title. The Cornhuskers averaged more than four fumbles per game last season — one of the nation's worst marks — and played five games where they fumbled five or more times. The pressure to keep the ball off of the ground falls squarely on to the able shoulders of quarterback Eric Crouch, a leagit- mate Heelsman Trophy candidate. He will be surrounded by all ten starters from last season's offense, the nation's top N offensive line and wingback Bobby Newcombe, who also may make a run at the Heisman. This experience helps immensely, Crouch said. "The major difference this year is the leadership," he said. "Everyone seems to be on the same page. This team has a close relationship and we expect a lot from each other and ourselves." And if that's not enough, Nebraska returns kicker Josh Brown and all-Big 12 punter Dadenfeldt. Of course, experience is a major theme on the other side of the ball as well, where the Cornhuskers return NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS Coach: Frank Solich, third year, 21-5 Key Players: QB Eric Crouch, WB Bobby Newcombe, TE Tracey Wistrom, LB Carlos Polk, DL Kyle Vanden Bosch, P Dan Hadenkel 1999 Record: 12-1, beat Tennessee 31-21 in Fiesta Bowl 1000 Prediction: 11-0, Orange Bowl To be successful, the Cornhuskers must not choke. Simply put, the only people standing between Nebraska and a national championship are themselves. seven defensive starters. The only possible question mark could be the defensive backfield. Nebraska must replace Mike Brown and Ralph Brown, who both graduated after scooping up first team All-American honors last season. Still, Polk isn't worried. Wildcats' weapon Allen has eye on backfield position "We feel we don't have any questions on defense this year," he said. "We are still the blackshirts, and we will always be the blackshirts." No questions, eh? How about how cornHusker红 Swimsuits look on the beach? Because, the way Nebraska fans see it, they'll be in Miami celebrating a national title in 2001. By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Kick or punt returns, that is. The move is kind of a surprise. Allen, a senior, has seven career punt returns for touchdowns, which ties the NCAA record. As a rusher last year, he had 74 carries for 364 yards. Allen has gained 970 more yards (1,523 to 553) as a punt returner than as a running back. For Kansas State to stay where it is might depend on who returns. The Wildcats will not have David Allen on special teams to start the season, said coach Bill Snyder. Instead, Allen will focus on being a running back. But Allen is competing for the tailback spot. Senior Chris Claybon will also be righting to save. "I think both of those positions should be extremely competitive," Snyder said. "All the youngsters that are involved with C close positions understand every single day we're on the field they are either going to gain ground or lose ground and probably not stay the same." The other position Snyder referred to was quarterback. Incumbent Jonathan Beasley threw for 1,805 yards as a junior after being relegated to benchwarmer his first two years because Michael Bishop was playing. Beasley started 11 of 12 games last year as the Wildcats finished 11-1 and No.6 nationally. "I feel a lot more comfortable heading into this season," Beasley said. "But I know I still have a lot to improve on so that I can continue to lead this team." KANSAS STATE WILDCATS Coach: Bid Snyder, twelfth season, 8B-40-1 Key players: WR Quincy Morgan, FS Jarrod Cooper, RB David Allen, PK Jamie Rheem, QB Longhann Beasley. 1999 Record: 11-1, defeated Washington 24- 20 in Holiday Bowl —Edited by Amy Randolph For the puzzle to come together, the Wildcats must improve their non-conference schedule. Even though we're beating a dead horse, K-State will be shut out of the BCS year after year until Snyder makes teams like Ball State and North Texas disappear from the schedule. These days K-State expects to win 11 games, and some folks in Manhattan would like to see freshman Ell Roberson get a chance to play. Roberson, from Baytown, Texas, has received favorable comparisons to Bishop, who started the Wildcats' surge to dominance. Wildcats fans — and the rest of the country — should delight in a more stringent non-conference schedule. Sure, the Wildcats will play Louisiana Tech, Ball State and North Texas. But they'll open with Iowa in the Eddie Robinson Classic at Arrowhead Stadium, the same game Kansas played in last year at Notre Dame. Part of the reason Snyder chose Iowa is because he was an assistant there from 1979-1988. "I have a great deal of respect for Iowa, for Iowa City and for the University and have thousands of friends there at this point in time," Snyder said. "As I've said before, I just think this is a great opportunity. They have great fans, we have great fans—we'll fill the stadium. I think it's good for the Midwest." Jayhawks hope to pick up pieces Continued from page 1A look any more ominous than the rest of the pieces, but the puzzle can't be built without a framework. Without players like Nesmith or defense and Norris and Smith controlling the offense, it wouldn't be quite as clear how the other players fit in. Senior running back David Winbush, who will compete with Norris for the position, is the exact 2 opposite of Norris in just about every way: short and swift, a veritable Road Runner to Norris' Popeye. So the running game could determine how the picture develops. Kansas was ranked fourth in the conference and 36th nationally, in rushing offense last season, amassing 171.2 yards per game on the ground. "You can't win if you can't run the football," Norris said. "Everyone knows that." What everyone also knows is that these Jayhawks kind of look like Tom Cruise: Scoring should never be a problem. The big question is whether the defense can not only make the occasional brilliant play, as it did last season, but be better as a whole. Hard-hitting Nesmith will anchor a pass defense that must show improvement. Allen has made strides, adding junior college transfer Jamarel Bryant to try to thwart the attacks that have become more prevalent in the Big 12 Conference in recent years. Kansas ranked last in the Big 12 and 102nd nationally in pass defense efficiency, surrendering 233 yards per game and 18 touchdowns. This year, along with knocking out opposing receivers with Nesmith's vicious hits, Allen knows the cornerbacks and safeties must do a better job of making the routine breakup. "Let's be honest," Allen said. "Our pass defense was pathetic at times last." "Let's be honest," Allen said. "Our pass defense was pathetic at times last. We have to be courageous." So that part of the puzzle is foggy. As is the defensive line, which graduation and transfers tore apart. Only nose tackle Nate Dwyer has Division I experience, and his cohorts will be chosen from a pack of freshman and junior college transfers. The box's contents have been dumped on the floor, but a few of the pieces were already joined. Allen knows what the receivers will be like. Talented last year, the pass-catching posse will be even better with the return of Termaine Fulton and Byron Gasaway, who each sat out last season. Fulton will still be a junior after receiving a medical redshirt that allowed him to retain his year of eligibility. He was hurt in the opening game last season, suffering an ankle sprain that forced him to sit the remainder of the season. Gasaway was involved in a freak weightlifting accident that involved dropping 315 pounds of free weights on his jaw and breaking it in three places. "It'll be great to have those guys back," said wide receiver Harrison Hill, second on the team last year with 29 catches. "I really think it could be a very strong position for us." At this time last year, Kansas was mired in a hot quarterback battle. The problem was that the incumbent, Zac Wegner, could not run the offense, and the new guy, Smith, did not know the offense. But Smith, a junior college transfer, will be sure to start every game of his senior year. After trading off with Wegner to begin last season, he started the fifth game against Southern Methodist. The offense gradually grew comfortable with his versatility and constant scrambling. He passed for 1,599 yards while connecting on 51.3 percent of his passes. Kansas started last year 1-3 before Smith's promotion, and he led the Jayhawks to a 4-4 record the remainder of the season, including a close 24-17 loss to Nebraska. know ent re sa v sa o l l l g n the Allen knows what everyone else en knows what everyone else knows. The Jayhawks have talent at the skill positions. The rest of the positions, as Allen says, are not rocket science. "We have, I guess you would say," Allen said, "the pieces of the puzzle to be a very good team." No one's sure what the picture is yet. It's still early. The defensive line is chock full of inexperience. Allen is also worried, like every coach, about the offensive line. "I've coached for 13 years, and each time it's been the same," Allen said. "You're only as good as your offensive line." Allen is in his fourth year at Kansas. Ultimately, he wants the pieces to come together and produce some kind of bowl. jayhawkheaven.com RUDY'S PIZZERIA Choose from our Classic Spicy Red Wine Sauce or our Homemade Pesto Sauce.

Big 12 Football Section B · Page 5 Texas shrugs off expectations for new season By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportsswitter At Texas, where even the position battles are bigger, the most focus will not be on who plays but rather on who does not. The Longhorns are loaded with talent again this year — maybe too much. Especially at quarterback, where incumbent Major Applewhite and sophomore Chris Simms will vie to lead one of the most talented teams in the country. Applewhite, a junior, led Texas to a 9-5 record last year and a Cotton Bowl berth, where it was defeated by Arkansas. The Longhorns' season had more of a roller- The Longhorns' coaster quality than Six Flags Over Texas. It lost its second game of the season at home to North Carolina State before winning four in a row against weak non-conference teams and Big 12 Conference foe Baylor. A loss against Kansas State sparked a five-game winning streak — including a win against Nebraska — before the Longhorns lost three in a row to finish the season. As always, the rich beds of high school talent in Texas have blessed the Longhorns. The rest of the envious conference might say the Longhorns are groovy, baby. But coach Mack Brown doesn't see any Austin powers yet. "Right now, there's too many question marks for us to be considered a top 10 team." Brown said. "We're not as good as everybody thinks we are." The season will be like 1999 in the sense that the Longhorns will spend a great deal of the preseason warding off expectations. But the team looks great on paper. Applewhite was co-Offensive Player of the Year in the Big 12 Conference last year. Running back Hodges Mitchell was second in the league with 1,343 yards rushed. Just to show the Longhorns aren't focused on one side of the ball, defensive tackles Casey Hampton and Shaun Rogers return after earning First Team All-Big 12 honors last year. TEXAS LONGHORNS Coach: Mack Brown, third season. 18-8 Key Players: BQ Major Applewhite, QB Chris Simms, RB Hodges Mitchell, DT Casey Hampton, DT Cory Redding 1999 Record: 9.5, lost to Arkansas 27-6 in Cotton Bowl 2000 Prediction: 10-1, Fiesta Bowl The majority, however, will be interested in the offense — specifically quarterback. Applewhite still is young. Simms, the son of former NFL quarterback Phil Simms, has shown too much prodigal talent to just sit on the bench, especially after an impressive spring. Brown will have to pick a quarterback and hope the team rallies around him. He also knows that having two of the country's top signal callers to choose from is far from a crisis. For the puzzle to come together, the Longhorns must decide on a quarterback Then, if their special teams don't get kicked around and the entire defense doesn't get injured, Texas may be bustin' open the Tostitos come February "we'll try not to choose." Brown said. "As much as we let them play it out to prove who's better, it will be very competitive. But there's a lot to worry about on this team right now. Not just that." - Edited by Amy Randolph 33 Senior Moran Norris fights for extra yardage against Texas A&M last fall. The Aggies this season hope to overcome off-the-field tragedies and improve on last year's 8-4 record. Kansai file photo Tragedies holding Aggies back Texas sets sights on beating Irish in season opener By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter If football could be the focus for Texas A&M this year, that would be a bonus. The Aggies went 8-4 last season, a down year for a traditionally strong program. But last year was no ordinary season after 12 were killed in the annual bonfire before the Texas game Thanksgiving weekend. When the 59-foot tower of wood collapsed, so did the Aggies. "Last year was a very difficult year for the program and the school." Aggies coach R.C. Slocum said. On top of that, defensive lineman Terry Nichols was killed in a car crash last May. "We will miss him dearly," Slocum said. "And not just as a football player. More importantly, he was an outstanding person." Barring more catastrophes, the Aggies should field a team that can improve on last year's 24-0 Alamo Bowl loss to Penn State. The Aggies return eight starters on defense, including TEXAS A&M AGGIES Coach: R.C. Slocum, 12th season, 102-32-2 Key Players: LB Roylin Bradley, WR Chris Taylor, RB Ja Mar Toombs, SS Michael Jameson, LB Jason Glenn 1999 Record: 8-4, lost to Penn State 24-0 in the Alamo Bowl 2000 Prediction: 8-3, Cotton 2000 Prediction: 8-3, Cotton Bowl For the puzzle to come together, the Aggies must put the hardships of the past year behind them. It all starts with getting off on the right foot in the opener at Notre Dame. A win against the Irish would set the tone. Then, find a new quarterback and run the ball efficiently. linebacker Roylin Bradley, who had seven sacks Offensively, Ja'Mar Toombs returns to run the ball after a productive 583-vard season last y e a r. Picking a quarter- back, just like the o t h e r t h r e e T e x a s ATM schools, will be the problem. Randy McCown is gone, so Slocum will have three chances to fill the void. Sophomores Nick Farris and Vance Smith and freshman Colby Freeman will compete. Chris Taylor, an Aggles wide receiver, is not concerned with who starts. R. C. Slocum Aggies coach "I always like the pressure of a good opening ballgame. It gives the kids something to focus on." "All three can play," Taylor said. "It's just a matter of who gives us the best situation to win." Slocum would rather not shuffle quarterbacks in the opening games, especially with a tough opener at Notre Dame September 2. This year's team reminds Slocum of his squad two years ago that won the Big 12 championship. Playing Notre Dame is a step in the right direction. Slocum said. The Aggies opened the '98 season against Florida State, so he hopes playing another difficult opening game will translate to postseason success. "I always like the pressure of a good opening ballgame," Slocum said. "It gives the kids something to focus on." If only football can be the Aggies' focal point. — Edited by John Audlehelm New Red Raiders coach to change offensive system By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansas sportwriter By Michael Rigg In the spirit of the election year, Texas Tech decided it was not satisfied with the status quo. Coach William "Spike" Dykes was forced to step down after last season despite guiding the Red Raiders to seven bowls in 13 seasons and routinely knocking off Tech's heavily publicized in-state rivals. His replacement is former Oklahoma offensive guru Mike Leach. But bare for Leach in his first head coaching position. First, the Red Raiders are loaded at running back. Ricky Williams and Shaud Williams return. Also returning is highly regarded first-year F starter Kliff Klingsbury at quarterback, who will throw to two returning starters — Tim Baker and Derek Dorris — at wideout. The offensive options please Leach, who was hired mainly on his air-it-out credentials. The Red Raiders ranked 10th in the Big 12 Conference in total offense last season, and Dykes' run-oriented offense came under fire last season. But Leach hasn't had too many problems changing the offense. "During the spring, we established all the systems," Leach said. "Then, we went back and polished them up. I think execution is the biggest thing." Players said they liked the new pass offense. "It will give me a chance to make a long run and will give me fewer carriers, making it easier on my knee," Williams said. "I've always wanted to be that in-between type running back, and now I get that opportunity with the new offense." Unfortunately, Leach will be forced to deal with an inexperienced defense that returns only four starters. But the new coach has brought a new defensive scheme as well, switching to a TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS Coach: Mike Leach, first season Key Players: RB Ricky Williams, RB Shaud Williams, S Kevin Curtis, QB Kilk Kinsaburv 1999 Record: 6-5, no bowl 2000 Prediction: 6-6, no bowl For the puzzle to come together, the Red Raiders must adjust to Leach's new system. Leach changed pretty much everything when he arrived in Lubbock, so it may take a while for the players to buy into the changes. 4-3 front. The switch had plenty to do with the fact that safety Kevin Curtis led the team in tackles last season, which made him an All-Big 12 performer. But having a defensive back lead the team in tackles probably isn't a good fit. "Our setup will be totally different," Curtis said. "I won't make nearly as many tackles, but I'll be blitzing, playing man-to-man and staving in the box." The Red Raiders also benefit from a soft nonconference schedule. A key game could be September 9 when Texas Tech plays Big West Conference opponent North Texas.

Problem is, a lot has changed in 10 years. The Buffers aren't quite the superpower they were back then, when coach Bill McCarthy led Colorado to a national championship and it looked as if the school would stay on at the pinnacle of college football for a long time. CU Two coaches later, Gary Barnett hopes Colorado can use this year's difficult opening six games to mold the Buffs into the caliber of team he saw when he was an assistant there in those prime years. "I really try not to focus on the schedule," Barnett said. "Right now, we're not getting ready for any team in particular. We're just trying to get ready for the long road ahead of us. But we are excited at the chances we'll have." The first three games aren't chance encounters. Colorado opens its non-conference schedule against Colorado State (in Denver) before traveling to Southern California, then taking on Washington at home. The Washington game has Boulder, Colo., fans watching closely because Rick Neuheisel — the coach hired to replace McCartney in 1995 and who left for Seattle two years ago — now leads the Huskies. "To the players, it's really just another game," said Brady McDonnell, Colorado senior defensive end. "But there's no doubt that the fans (in Boulder, Colo.) want to beat Rick when he's there." Colorado played at Washington last year, Neuheisel's first season there, and lost 31-24. The Buffs went 7-5 (5-3 Big 12 Conference) overall last year, but can't be counted out just because of the difficult schedule. Despite a sluggish 3-3 start, the team finished on a high note, winning four of its last six games. The two losses, to Kansas State and Nebraska, could just as easily have gone the other way. The Buffs lost 20-14 to K-State and 33-30 in overtime to Nebraska. Colorado's quick surge late in the season landed the team in the Insight.com Bowl, where it pounded Boston College 62-28. "We definitely need to start the way we finished last year," McDonnell said. "There's no room for error." COLORADO BUFFALOES Coach: Gary Barnett, 2nd season, 7-5 Key Players: TB Corlein Johnson, ILB Jashon Sykes, DT Justin Bannan, WR Javon Green, TB Marcus Houston 1999 Record: 7-5, defeated Boston College 62-28 in Insight.com Bowl 2000 Prediction: 6. 5, Galleryfurniture.com Bowl For the puzzle to come together, the Buffalooes must survive until October. No team improved more in 1999 than Colorado, but a rigorous non-conference schedule in 2000 (Colorado State, Southern Cal and Washington) would make a bowl appearance an accomplishment. After the Buffs' treacherous trio of games are finished, they'll play at home against Kansas State, at Texas A&M and then return home to face Texas. Their seventh game is at Kansas, where they were upset two years ago. "I remember when I was a kid and CU played the best teams." McDonnell said. "I'm a senior, and I want to face the best in the country and get this program where it was."

Kansan file photo Sooners eyeing postseason play Team will attempt to build on last year's accomplishments By Chris Wristen sports@kanson.com Kansan sportwriter They may not be the Sooners of old, but second-year coach Bob Stoops' squad may be one step closer this year. real elusive in the pocket." A bowl drought and loss of national prominence had become the norm in Norman, Okla., during the early '90s, but the hiring of Stoops last year brought some immediate reprieve as the Sooners garnered a berth in the Independence Bowl, losing a 27-25 thriller to Mississippi. "Josh is a much better athlete than he's been given credit for." Stoops said. "He's a great athlete. He runs well and is Eight offensive starters and seven defensive starters return and will aim to build on the success of 1999. Highlighting the returnees is senior quarterback Josh Heupel, last year's Big 12 Conference Offensive Newcomer of the Year and a first team All-Big 12 selection. He was ranked ninth in the nation with 305 yards of offense per game. Also proving elusive is sophomore wide receiver Antwone Savage, last year's Big 12 Freshman of the Year. Savage set an Oklahoma record for freshmen with 31 catches and 426 yards. If the Sooners hope to make a run at the big 12 South Division title, they'll need to fill some holes in their running game. They averaged 105 yards per game on the ground. Putting the rushing attack into perspective. Q conference doormat Baylor rushed for 109 yards per game. However, the Sooners won six more games than Baylor last year with this beleaguered running game. "To be a championship team, you have to be successful running the football." Heupel said. "You look at us last year, and we did not." Defensively, Oklahoma just wants to stay consistent. There's not a whole lot to improve on when your defensive core returns after giving up just six rushing and 17 passing touchdowns all season. Junior and senior linebackers Rocky Calmus and Torrance Marshall will help keep it that way this year. Calmus was a OKLAHOMA SOONERS Coach: Bob Stoops, second season, 7-5-0 Key Player: QB Josh Heupel, LB Torrance Marshall, WR Antwone Savage. 1999 Record: 7.5, lost to Mississippi in Independence Bowl, 27.25. 2000 Prediction: 8-3, Holiday Bowl. No doubt who the necessary piece is in the Sooner's puzzle. Without Heupel, the big 12 Offensive Newcomer of the Year last year, Oklahoma will be jumbled up. second-team All-Big 12 selection, while Marshall was the conference Defensive Newcomer of the Year in 1999. "We had a good defensive year last year," Calmus said. "Defensivewise, we have good expectations for this year." The strength of the returning starters has Stoops believing his team will be in the thick of things when the conference season rolls around, starting with the September 30 match with Kansas. "I don't think we're a whole lot different from the other bowl teams in the conference," Stoops said. "If we work hard and do the best we can do, we can play with the best of them." Edited by Kathryn Moore By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Despite injuries and despite leading a team that has not lived up to expectations the past few seasons, Oklahoma State football coach Bob Simmons is smiling a lot. And why not? Quarterback Tony Lindsay is recovered from a knee injury he suffered in the 1999 season opener, and the Cowboys think they can build on last year's 5-6 finish. The optimism also could be because of the schedule. S i m m o n s would have to fight hard not to smirk at what the Big 12 Conference football gods (or at least the schedule-makers) have done for his team. There's no Nebraska or Kansas State this year. "That's just the way things worked out," Simmons said. "But not having them does not mean Missouri, Iowa State and Colorado are games you overlook." Oh sure, the three games Simmons mentioned all are still losable. But there's no doubt that not having games against the league's two marquee teams will be a major break for a team that has tried to step into the upper echelon of the conference since Simmons arrived in 1995 OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS Coach: Bob Simmons, sixth season, 27-30 Key Players: TE Marcellus Rivers, QB Tony Lindsay, DE Kevin Williams 2000 prediction: 6-5, Independence Bowl If Lindsay stays healthy at quarterback, the Cowboys will puzzle other teams. Oklahoma State needs its play-making skills and versatility to sneak into a bowl game despite having a relatively easy schedule. The other reason for optimism is a return of a healthy Lindsay. He started the season against Louisiana-Lafayette but suffered a knee injury. That injury would keep him out of the next four games. He returned to start against Kansas State and helped the Cowboys to a 21-0 first-quarter lead, but the Wildcats eventually prevailed. He did not start or play the next week at Texas A&M but came back to start against Texas, Kansas and Baylor with Oklahoma State winning two of the three. His 1999 statistics included 61-of-116 passing for 767 yards and five touchdowns, and 69 rushes for 162 yards. "I wasn't healthy after the first quarter of the first game last year," Lindsay said. "But I've been healthy all spring, and I'm ready to go." -Edited by Erin McDaniel PLAY IT AGAIN SPORTS We Buy, Sell & Trade USED & NEW Sports Equipment 841-PLAY 1029 Massachusetts NOW HIRING IN BOUND CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES TO REPRESENT THE LARGEST TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROVIDER IN THE UNITED STATES.

This year, the Bears will try to improve on their 1-1999 season. Kansan file photo Baylor seeks ways to improve By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter As lunch passed and the Big 12 Conference's annual media day was supposed to carry on, people wondered if the conference was going to become the Big 11. Baylor, scheduled to speak in the early afternoon, had not arrived yet. Most coaches wouldn't admit it, but Baylor not participating might not be a bad thing. Baylor, which went 1-10 last year, has been the doormat of the conference since its inception four years ago. As Colorado coach Gary Barnett pointed out, "You can't have a superconference with a team going 0-11." Then again, as difficult as a Big 12 schedule can be, maybe it's not so bad to have the Bears around. Barnett was probably not wagging his finger directly at Baylor, but the message was obvious — the Bears need to improve. Second-year Bears coach Kevin Steele knows that, too. Baylor surrendered 414 points last year while scoring only 137. The Bears, however, had a chance to win their first two games. They went into overtime with Boston College, then had a victory in the bag against Nevada-Las Vegas before an incomprehensible fumble in the waning seconds led to another loss. "The goal of every off-season program is the same — to get better." BEARS tremendous amount of hope." The addition of junior college quarterback Greg Cicero could create a dramatic improvement. Cicero, a 6-foot-4 junior, will compete with incumbent Mike Odum and redshirt freshman Guy Tomcheck for the spot. But consider Cicero the favorite, not just because of his prostyle size, but because of the psychology he brings to the team. "I wasn't part of last year's team." Cicero said. "So I don't know what it's like to lose that many games. I think I can bring a winning attitude BAYLOR BEARS Coach: Kevin Steele, second season, 1-10 Key players: DB Gary Baxter, RB Darrall Bush, LB Kris Micheau, DB Samir Al-Amin 1999 Record: 1-10, no bowl 2000 Prediction: 4-7, no bowl *For the puzzle to come together, the Bears must prevent lastplay fumbles. Seriously, folks, Baylor's better than people think; but 2000 will be just one more year in the rebuilding process.* to the team." Steele and his two players finally arrived for media day, and before Steele oozed with optimism, he shined humor on the trials and tribulations of last season. He just hopes his Bears won't be laughed at this season. "We're not going to look back at the 1999 season and think about payback." Steele said. "Our theme is to pay forward. We want to invest so heavily in work ethic this off-season, spring and summer conditioning, that we have no intent of giving up on our investment." Edited by Shawn Hutchinson Young Tigers face bruising schedule Bv Chris Wristen By Chris Wristen sports@kanson.com Kanson sportwriter 1988 was a great year to be a Tiger. 1999, however, wasn't and don't expect 2000 to be either. After an Insight.com Bowl victory in '98, '98 the '99 season brought high expectations to Columbia. But after a 1-3 start, the Tigers dropped six of their, last seven games and finished in the Big 12 North Division cellar. The 2000 edition team looks promising. The squad lost just 16 lettermen from last year's team. Looks can be deceiving. These Tigers are young — very young. Only 12 seniors return to the squad. There are 24 juniors, 25 sophomores, 22 redshirt freshmen and 23 The lack of numbers for upper-classmen leadership has assistant coach Ricky Hunley concerned. freshmen — eight of whom are académically ineligible — in the roster. "Your confidence can easily be shaken when you're young," Hunley said. " (Last year) we had a redshirt freshman quarterback and a sophomore quarterback. They've taken some lumps." The schedule alone will be bruising. Non-conference games against Michigan State and Clemson may rock the Tigers early. It won't get any easier with a conference opener at Nebraska. A quarterback controversy and an inexperienced offensive line also could create problems. Junior quarterback Jim Dougherty and sophomore Kirk Farmer will battle for the starting nod under center. The defense, headlined by presea- tor All-American candidate and MISSOURI TIGERS Coach: Larry Smith, seventh season, 30-38-1 1999 Record: 4-7, no bowl 2000 Prediction: 1-10, no box Key Players: DE Justin Smith, S Julian Jones, RB Dwayne Blakeley, WR Pati Minaucci 2000 Predation — 1-10, 10-30 For the puzzle to come together, the Tigers must have a miracle happen. Missouri has only one sure win on its schedule — Western Illinois. With this roster, it might not get any more. This isn't just a Missouri thing, either. The Tigers are in trouble in 2000. defensive end Justin Smith, offers some hope. Smith said he expected big things from the secondary. "Our secondary is good," Smith said. "It's no surprise, really, but I think Julian Jones is going to be one of the premier D-backs in the conference." Despite losses, Iowa State closer to its goals — Edited by Clay McCuistion By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan swriter When Iowa State football coach Dan McCarny speaks about his football team, it's easy to think he's going to hold his kielbasa-thick thumb and forefinger an inch apart as if to say, "this close." As in, the Cyclones were "this close" to reaching a bowl game and "this close" to receiving respect in the Big 12 Conference. McCarney and ISU may have been closer than they thought. After all, last year's 4-7 record (1-7 Big 12) was the Cyclones' best under McCarney, who is 13-42 after five seasons in Ames. While the record looks as though Iowa State was mired in mediocrity, a deeper IOWA STATE CYCLONES look shows it was close to a bowl game. After winning its first three games against non-conference opponents, Iowa State barely lost to Kansas State. Nebraska crushed the Cyclones later 49-14, and ISU's morale was shot. The Cyclones did put up a fight. After losing to Nebraska, the Cyclones beat Missouri but then lost to Colorado and Texas. If Iowa State hadn't already dropped four consecutive games before playing IOWA STATE CYCLONES Coach: Dan McCarney, sixth season, 13-42 Key Player:s GQ Bison Sageen, DL James Reed, RB J.J. Moses, DE Reggie Hayward, NG Ryan Harklauw 1999 Record: 4-7, no bowl 2000 Prediction: 4-7, no bowl For the puzzle to come together, the Cyclones must adjust to not having a Davis (Darren or Troy) at running back, and cope with an unexperienced defense. against Kansas, the 31-28 loss might have ended differently. This year, McCarney will have to lead his team without a Davis brother for the first time since he arrived at Iowa State. Darren Davis, who graduated, comprised the majority of ISU's offense. Despite only six starters returning on offence, McCarney can relax knowing at least his quarterback will be back. Sage Rosenfels last year threw for 1,781 yards and 10 touchdowns. McCarney said he didn't feel the heat to produce a winning season. "I don't feel any pressure," he said. "I know that the program has improved a lot. Anybody who's been close to the program knows that."

The Jayhawks open season play Sept. 2 at Southern Methodist University. Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN By Jason Franchuk sports@kanson.com Kansan swordwriter The more things have changed at Memorial Stadium, the more things have stayed the same for the Jayhawks. The latest addition to the field, a new AstroPlay surface, held up nicely in Saturday's Kansas football scrimmage. Coach Terry Allen was pleased with the field's playability, despite rain showers that could have postponed the team's first full-contact practice heading into its first game against Southern Methodist. The dreary day contained several small storms, but Allen continued the approximately 75-play scrimmage. "It was very wet," Allen said. "But (the field) was excellent when it got wet." The field was fine. Since KU switched from its ragged Astroturf, the team has given rave reviews to the new surface. It is like turf, but has a grassy texture that makes landing on it softer. There were concerns how players would keep their footing during inclement weather, but for now, those worries are moot. One part of the game remains constant with bad weather, though. "When the ball gets wet, it's tough to handle." Allen said. Jayhawk starting quarterback Dylan Smith was just as tough to handle, at least for the first-team defense. Smith led his team on a 75-yard touchdown drive to begin the scrimmage, capped by a 25-yard touchdown pass to Termaine Fulton. Smith looked smooth during the drill, easily connecting with receivers, especially on timing patterns which required receivers to go over the middle. "he was a little rough around the edges," Allen said. Smith performed well considering most of his receiving corps did not play. Byron Gasaway is still nursing a bad ankle and Harrison Hill suffered from dehydration. Redshirt freshman Daniel Coke had 6 yards on 11 carries to lead all runners, as Allen was quick to play everyone. There is still plenty to work on before heading to Dallas in two weeks for the season opener, but for now Allen is pleased with at least one aspect of his team. "We avoided all major injuries, which is always a plus." Allen said. The Kansas football team might be California dreamin'. Briefly... Because a game fell through between Missouri and UCLA, the Jayhawks are now trying to line themselves up to play the Bruins next year at Memorial Stadium. The Los Angeles Times reported Friday that the game is all but a lock, but no con firmation came from KU. Missouri was supposed to play a home and away series against the Bruins starting in 2001 but backed out after fearing that next year's schedule would be too difficult Kansas last played UCLA in the 1995 Aloha Bowl, which Kansas won. - Edited by Clay McCuistion Big 12 Conference prepares for new season, challenges By Jason Franchuk sports@kanson.com Kansas sportwriter Here are some notes from Here are some notes from around the Big 12 Conference, at a time when every team is still optimistic. Each team is older and wiser, but also bringing in a group of promising freshmen. And all plan on taking it one game at a time. E Proof that all Big 12 schedules are not equal: Colorado opens with Colorado State, Southern California and Washington. Kansas State finally plays a decent non-conference game, in Kansas City, Mo. against the Big Ten's Iowa. Then don't forget to ice K-State's other three non-Big 12 opponents: Louisiana Tech, Ball State and North Texas. Woody Hayes, the legendary Ohio State coach, once said he hated quarterback controversies because it meant neither option was that good. What that bodes for Texas, Texas A&M, Colorado and Baylor, we'll soon find out. Each school has at least two quarterbacks vying for the starting job, including three candidates at A&M. The Aggies, Buffaloes and no-news Bears may have nothing to worry about, regardless of who is picked. Watch Texas, where incumbent Major Applewhite and sophomore Chris Simms will duel. Applewhite has proven he can win, but after going 9-5 last year, perhaps the nod will go to the prodigal ATM son — Simms is the son of former NFL quarterback Phil Simms — who has too much talent to simply stand on the sidelines. Nebraska coach Frank Solich will not be subscribing to many college football magazines this year. He dislikes the hype being placed on his Cornhuskers. Almost every publication has the Lincoln Logs rolling to a national title. N "I don't like to listen or read that stuff," Solich said. "Because I don't think we're that good yet. We have the potential to be, but it's a matter if our defense can carry us like they did last year." Personality award: Most of the M Big 12 coaches could be confused for R2D2 or C3PO — very robotic. But not Kansas coach Terry Allen or Texas' Mack Brown. Each brought humor and spunk to the annual Big 12 Media Day. Allen was especially perky when the Jayhawks opened media day festivities at 9 a.m. He started by welcoming visiting media to Kansas City and then wished Missouri coach Larry Smith a speedy recovery. KU Smith was in the hospital suffering from heart problems. "Let's be on the ball." Allen said. "And not forget what's important." Brown told a story of how recruiting is different than marriage. "Recruiting is like marrying the girl after one date," he said. - Edited by Clay McCusition Set'em Up Jack's Cold Beer • Great Taste Sports Bar & Grill • Five 6-ft. Big Screen TVs • Mon.-Fri.

Helping lift that inexperience was the summer travel of four Jayhawks. Senior center Eric Chenowith headed to Hawaii last week to touch up his pivot skills at the highly regarded Pete Newell Big Man's Camp in Honolulu. Meanwhile, senior guard Luke Axell is finishing his tour of duty with a team of Big 12 All-Stars in Austria. Axell was averaging more than 10 points a game in Europe before he pulled his groin and was hampered for the remainder of the tournament. The tournament also represented Axtell's first return to action since January. Axtell missed the final two months of last season because of an undisclosed medical condition. Before he left, Axtell he was excited about the opportunity. "This experience will help me prepare for next season in that it's a high level of competition," Axtell said. "I've been playing a lot, though, and I think I'm already in playing shape." Axtell wasn't the only Jayhawk who benefited from international competition. Both Collison and sophomore forward Drew Gooden traveled to Brazil in late July as members of the 2000 USA Basketball World Championships for Young Men Qualifying Team. The team started off the tournament 4-0 before dropping its final game 92-77 to Argentina. "It was a really good experience," Collison said. "But we didn't play as a team and really struggled offensively." Next up for Collision is a chance to compete against the best. Next week, Collision will head to Maul with 11 other collegiate players to practice and compete against the USA Senior National Team — otherwise known as the Dream Team. Collison will practice against the team of NBA stars starting Aug. 28, then the collegians will play the Dream Team in a nationally televised game Sept. 2. "I'll have a lot of fun, and at the same time I'll learn from some of the best players in the world," Collison said. "If it be incredible to be playing against the players on the Dream Team, and I think it will help me prepare even more for the upcoming season." And so, probably, will everyone else's travels — and Williams' lack thereof. ILISAS 0 Drew Gooden slams a dunk over an Iowa State defender last season, Kansan file photo —Edited by Erin McDaniel Knights coach should recruit alumni Hey, Kevin Pritchard, how's about a little love for some of your Javhawks? In case you didn't know, the new Kansas City ABA basketball team, coached by former Jayhawk Kevin Pritchard, is in the process of assembling its roster. So far, the Kansas City Knights have only one other former Jayhawk besides Pritchard on their roster: high-flying Darrin Hancock. Oh, and they got JaRon Rush. He was supposed to be a Jayhawk, but, well, you know his story. so maybe Pritchard should further alienate Jayhawk fans and pick up Jason Sutherland? I'm sure he's not too busy these days. Maybe he's the manager of the french fry grease at a Wendy's in Columbia, Mo. After Sutherland, they could import Ivan Drago from Russia. Add Rush, and there's a team I could totally hate. I know Pritchard's first concern is winning games. But he also needs to worry about putting fans in the stands, and adding a couple of Jayhawks to the roster could help both his winning percentage and his Sports Columnist Seth Jones 103 sports@kansan.com attendance. So let me then say that snagging the rights to Darrin Hancock was a fantastic move. Any true Jayhawk fan can easily close his or her eyes and envision one of the finest moves made by a Jayhawk in recent history. Against Indiana back in 1993, Hancock drives the baseline, jumps on the right side of the rim, cupping the ball, and then ends up slamming the ball on the left side in windmill-like fashion. The camera crew caught it from about three different angles and replayed it in super slow motion for everyone's appreciation of the move. The only dunk I can think of that comes close — maybe — is Raef LaFrentz's left-handed follow-up dunk after Jacque Vaughn bricked a layup. Kenny Gregory has had a couple nasty ones too, but I remember Hancock being downright scary, he jumped so high. Pritchard did score some other good picks. Kansas City native Derek Hood makes for a nice addition. Fred Hoiberg was selected, but doesn't he have an NBA team to go to? And Richie Framm from Gonzaga, who Pritchard is calling "a steal." He might add some points to the board. Pritchard has stated that open tryouts for the team happen in late September. When asked if he's considering any Jayhawks, Pritchard dropped the names of Ryan Robertson, Steve Woodberry, Billy Thomas and Nick Bradford. Don't look for Ryan Robertson to go anywhere. He might be able to stand behind the Sacramento Kings bench for another year for three times the money he'd make from the Knights. Woodberry back in the states playing in Kansas City. He plays pro ball in Australia, and while I haven't seen any Aussie basketball on ESPN2, word is that our man Woodberry dominates the outback. The ABA pays on average between $80,000 to $90,000, so maybe he could be lured from Down Under back to the Kansas City area. It would be great to see Steve Billy Thomas? Well, I've never been a big Billy Thomas fan. If I wanted a streaky three-point shooter who didn't play defense, I wait a year and sign Luke Axtell. At least Luke plays guitar. Will Nick Bradford don a Kansas City Knights jersey? I'd sign him. He's versatile, young and aggressive. He knows how to stay out of trouble. Why not? So, Coach Pritchard, we're waiting to see if you can give all of us in Jayhawkland a little more of an excuse to drive your way and watch this team. Hopefully, by late September we'll see a little more crimson and blue in the Knights. Jones is a Mulvane senior in journalism. Williams proves that he should be trusted From the While You Were Away department ... The biggest news to hit the state of Kansas this summer was the story that wasn't. In case you missed it (perhaps you were studying abroad on Mars or someplace equally desolate Manhattan?), Roy Williams is still the men's basketball coach at Kansas. Sure, there was a serial killer arrested in Overland Park and the WorldCom-Sprint merger was blocked, but ... Roy Williams is still the coach at Kansas! And, oh yeah, he turned down the "Best Job in College Coaching." Williams said no to his mentor Dean Smith and the chance to go home to friends, family and his alma mater. A quick recap: quit occupy June 29 - Bill Guthridge steps down as coach at North Carolina, Williams is assumed to be the leading candidate to take over the Tar Heel program. June 30 — Williams confirms his interest in the job at a news conference. July 3-4 — Williams visits UNC campus and meets with athletics director Dick Baddour and Dean Smith. July 6 - Back in Lawrence, Williams announces he will stay at Kansas, citing loyalty to his players. It sounds simple when put like that, but it was so much more. Rumor, speculation and innuendo dominated the pages of newspapers across the country every day that Williams spent making up his mind. Chat rooms and message boards were packed with fans weighing in on the Roy Williams' saga. The consensus was goodbye Kansas, hello Carolina blue. Sports Columnist How could he not go? Recruiting would be easier. He would have a legitimate superstar (which he lacks at Kansas) in Joseph Forte. Not to mention that he would be going home to live near fam- Derek Prater sports@kansan.com All the signs pointed to Williams leaving. Except for what he kept telling us. ily and friends. His son, Scott, is a recent UNC grad, and his daughter, Kimberly, is a student there. Again and again, he denied reports that he had decided to leave. He maintained that he just needed time to make up his mind. For some strange reason, we refused to believe him. He already had a house in Chapel Hill, didn't he? He had always planned to return to North Carolina some day, hadn't he? He's just giving Bob Frederick time to put out feelers for a replacement, isn't he? And why should we believe him? Sure, he had been nothing but exceedingly honest in his 12 years here, but "anonymous sources" who were "close to the program" at Chapel Hill were cited in North Carolina newspapers as saving it was a done deal. Some of us held it against him, too. Messages posted on Web sites like espn.com referred to Williams as a traitor and a liar. It seemed that for every fan that wished him well whatever his decision would be, there was one that felt betrayed by the coach. But he proved once again when it comes to Roy Williams, there's only one reliable source. Journalists rush to print information from less-than-reliable sources, and fans jump to how-dare-he conclusions. But for the real scoop, only one man could be trusted. And he needed just 2.5 words to state it: "I'm staying." Prater is a Lawrence graduate student in journalism.

Schroeder had one goal during the game. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN JENNA WATSON Soccer team has greater expectations By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter The Kansas women's soccer team has two season goals it would like to score - making the Big 12 Conference tournament and finishing the 2000 season with a winning record. And the goals do not seem unrealistic for this year's team. The Jayhawks enjoyed the most successful season in the program's history last year with a record of 8-10-1 and a ninth-place finish in the Big 12. But they missed the Big 12 tournament, for which the top eight teams in the conference qualified. In this year's team, however, coach Mark Francis sees positive changes that may allow it to achieve both goals. The most notable improvement is the presence of talented newcomers, including three players recruited from abroad who also play with national teams. "For us to be competitive, I have to get the best players," said Francis, who is from London. "And if I can't get the best players from America, then I need to find them somewhere else." Maggie Mason, freshman midfielder from Elmira, Canada, was called in for the Canadian national team Thursday and trained with the team for three days. Layla Young, sophomore goalkeeper from Crawley, England, played for the English National Team Tuesday in Paris. And Jennifer Ray, freshman midfielder from Hillington, England, played with England's under-18 national team last week. "Obviously you want your players to be exposed to the highest level they can play," said Francis, who led South Alabama to a 31-8-1 record in two seasons before coming to Kansas last year. "It's going to make them better players. Then they're going to bring that back to our team and raise the level of our team also." The talented new players' presence affects the returning players. "We have so much more competition for the positions on the team." Francis said. "The players returning from last year, a lot of them have really improved, really pushing a lot more this year than they did last year. We have a lot of good players. We have very good depth in every position." Senior midfielder Colleen Colvin said the team had improved from last year. "We have a very good team this year," she said. "I definitely think we're going to the tournament." Senior forward Hhia Raftaal, from Vantaa, Finland, transferred from South Alabama with Francis last year. She broke Kansas' single-season scoring record with 16 points, even though she was injured in the first game and missed the next five games. "I think I've improved," she said. "I feel like I'm in better shape, not hurting like last year." Because of those improvements, the Big 12 soccer coaches' preseason poll ranks Kansas No. 6 in the conference. Last year, Kansas was near the bottom of the rankings. "It's nice to know that they think we're going to be that much better." Francis said. "But because of that, I don't think we're going to surprise anybody." Edited by Nathan Willis Rowers confident despite departures By Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Kansas sportwriter This year's Kansas women's rowing team finds itself in what many coaches would call a rebuilding process. The Jayhawks finished last spring with a No. 20 national ranking — the program's highest in its five-year existence. But Kansas' first varsity eight boat had eight seniors in its nine-member boat. Gone are Risa Petty, Tara Lynn, Abby Rosdahl, Sarah Canfield, Laura Hubert, Keesha Cravens, Lettie Ebbs and coxswain Nikia Rosenberger, the team's equivalent of a quarterback the last three years. All seniors were walk-on. The first varsity boat finished 0.4 seconds behind Iowa in the Central Regional semifinals in May, just missing the grand finals. Michigan won the other semifinal with the same time as the Jayhawks, and Texas, a team the Jayhawks handled earlier in the season, took second in Michigan's semifinal to advance to the grand finals. Michigan took fifth place in the COMING RACES "We graduated an abundance of seniors,but we have a good development system to fill in spots. We should be as good this year if not a little better."

"We kind of had broken dreams," Gribbin said. "We had big expectations and didn't want to finish on a sour note. But we can focus on the 20th ranking. It will play a part this year." Gribbin also said she wasn't worried about in the first host. "We need to keep up our work schedule," she said. "We aren't expecting any problems. It should be a big year." The Jayhawks have two rowing seasons. In the fall, they compete in head races — three to four-mile regattas with numerous teams in a winding course. Sprint races in the spring are 2,000-meter races, usually head-to-head or no more than eight-lane racing. — Edited by Shawn Hutchinson EDDINGHAM PLACE 24th and Eddingham Dr. OFFERING LUXURY 2 BDRM APARTMENTS AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE KVM 808 W. 24th 841-6080 or 841-5444 LUXURY MENTS TABLE PRICE • Some Pets • Swimming Pool • Exercise Weight Room • Laundry Room • Fireplace • Energy Efficient • On Site Management • Daily 3:00 - 5:00 IN YOUR SPACE Make Us Your First STOP for: Custom Auto Graphics Custom Banners Custom License Plates 1410 N.3rd Lawrence KS graphics 842-3855 FASTER THAN A SPEEDING BULLET...

For those dying to show their athletic talents this fall, the intramural program could be a good way to stay active as well as meet others with similar interests. The intramural program is divided into different categories: men's and women's Greek, men's and women's open, men's and women's residence hall and co-recreational. The intramural schedule of events flier is available at the intramurals office at 208 Robinson Center. The schedule lists the coming managers' meetings that will be held for each team's sport. Flag football and sand volleyball head the list when managers' meetings begin Sunday, Aug. 27. There also are a variety of individual sports offered such as tennis, golf, bowling, eight-ball pool and racquetball. Entries for individual and dual tournaments will be taken at the recreational services office. The hype for the coming flag football seasons already has begun, according to Brian Weiser, Highland Park, Ill., sophomore. "The flag football season is going to be a good time," he said. "I have had my squad set up for a while now." Students involved in the intramurals program advise early planning as well as attending the managers' meeting. Anyone who does not want to compete can participate in the program by becoming an official. Previous experience is not required because "The biggest benefit has been meeting other people and breaking the monotony of just coming to school and going to class." Sean Younger Mulvane senior there are training programs. The officials' meetings for 'team sports have been set up, and the times and dates are available in the recreation services office. Sean Younger, Mulvane senior, participated in football, basketball and baseball in high school and said he wanted to find a way to participate in sports at the University. Through the intramurals program, he has participated in almost every sport and has worked his way through the paid positions to the top student position — program assistant. "The biggest benefit has been meeting other people and breaking the monotony of just coming to school and going to class," Younger said. "If you participate in sports in high school, this is the perfect outlet to get out and do something." "It's a great way to meet people, especially if you are an incoming freshman and need to meet people." Recreation services also makes sure to stress its motto: "Integrity — the right choice."

Edited by Kristi Elliott Kansas swimmers try for Olympic games Former, current Jayhawks make waves during trial competition in Indiana By Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Jayhawks past and present attempted to make September reservations in Sydney, Australia, at the U.S. Olympic Team swimming and diving trials Aug. 9 to 16 at the Indiana University Natatorium in Indianapolis. Michelle Rojohn, who graduated from the University of Kansas in 1996, finished third in the three-meter diving finals and will be an alternate for the Olympic team in Sydney. Rojohn won the 1996 NCAA championship in the three-meter dive. Tyler Painter, who competed at Kansas from 1997-99, placed sixth in the 1,500-meter freestyle finals with a time of 15 minutes, 22.58 seconds. Painter, a three-time All-American as a Jayhawk, also finished 25th (4:31.29) in the 400 individual medley, which consists of the butterfly. PETER BLAKE breaststroke, backstroke and freestyle. Current Jayhawks also participated in the trials. Drew Dischinger competed in the Olympic trials Senior captain Carolyn Grevers was 65th out of 91 in the 100-meter breaststroke. She finished in 1 minute, 14.56 seconds. Grevers holds the Kansas record for that event as well. Kansas sophomore Gwen Haley was in O O O O OLYMPIC GAMES familiar territory at the Olympic trials. Haley's hometown is Carmel, Ind., which is minutes from the IU Natatorium. She finished 28th out of 92 (4:58.22) in the 400 individual medley. She also was 43rd out of 73 (2:22.66) in the 200 IM. Gwen's brothers, Tim, a junior at North Carolina State, and Trevor, a high school student in Casper, Wyo., also competed in the trials. Trevor placed 46th, while Tim was 54th. Haley said that having her brothers and family at the meet was gratifying for her. "Before the 400 IM, I was pretty nervous," Haley said. "I was standing next to Olympians with world titles. Having family and friends there made it comfortable. There was no pressure in that sense." Other women placing were junior Carrie Kirkham, 60th out of 98 (27.07 seconds) in the 50-meter freestyle and Beth Schryer, 74th out of 92 (5:06) in the 400 IM. First-year women's coach Cathy Burgess said she was very pleased with her swimmers' results. "This was great experience for NCAAs," Burgess said.

Recently, members of the Kansas men's and women's club crew teams have been including 45 minutes of stair climbing in the fieldhouse as part of their conditioning program. The teams begin formal practice Thursday, with two-hour practices every day to focus on technique, strength and stamina. Coach Kevin O'Rourke, a former team member and May 2000 graduate, also has planned weight-room training for his men's and women's squads. The men's and women's varsity teams and the novice team, for freshmen and beginners, have fifteen rowers. The crew club, which will begin its season at the Head of the Des Moines Regatta in Iowa on Saturday, Sept. 30, has five eight-member boats and three four-member boats. The fall competitions are different from the regattas that take place during the spring season. "The fall season is comprised of head races, where the teams race against a clock for 5,000 meters, and the team with the fastest time wins," O'Rourke said. "Spring season has boats in seven different lanes for a 2,000 meter race." O'Rourke, who joined the crew team as a junior, is optimistic about this year's team. "We are looking pretty good this year," he said. "We are young, but we have a lot of people returning." O'Rourke would like to see the team compete with Colorado and Kansas State, which the Jayhawks have not done in the past. Tommy Ryan, men's team captain and Leawood sophomore, previously competed as a member of the Kansas City Rowing Club. Ryan gained interest in the sport through his father, who was a member of the Irish National Rowing team. Ryan has found an appreciation for the Kansas team's diversity. "Our team has all different types of people with various majors," he said. "We have people who have played sports in the past and those who haven't." Both O'Rourke and Ryan are looking forward to one of the sea- The regatta, which features some Ivy League squads, is one of the varsity's most competitive meets. "Being competitive at the Head of the Regatta is one of our biggest goals," O'Rourke said. "We need to be in our best shape for that." He would also like to see better attendance and support at local meets. The Jayhawks will be competing at the American Royal on Sunday, Oct. 15 in Kansas City, Mo. The novice squad will take part in the Wichita Frostbite on Sunday, Nov. 5. In addition to the noted meets, the varsity squad will be traveling to Georgia, Illinois and Louisiana for regattas. Laura Platner, Tulsa, Okla., sophomore, will enter her first year as a member of the women's varsity team after spending last year with the novice squad. She said she would like to see her teammates have more cohesiveness and commitment for the upcoming season, specifically in organizing boats, which consist of four- or eight-person teams. "I hope a lot of people stick with it because the more people that we have, the more likely we are to put more boats together," Platner said.

"This is a numbing experience," said the former KU assistant coach. "It's kind of surreal, like you're dreaming, wondering if you're going to wake up." Now, five weeks after he was hired, Doherty feels the weight of the world on his shoulders. And why shouldn't he? He is taking over for long-time assistant coach B i l l l Guthridge, who took the Tar Heels to two Final Fours in his three years as head coach and took over for the win SIR SAMUEL R. BURGESS Doherty: Inherits many players from Final Four team ningest coach in Division I history, Dean Smith. Smith's squads won NCAA titles in 1982 — with Doherty as a starter on the team — and in 1983. Talk about big shoes to fill. All the same, Doherty's not afraid. He knows the successes of the past and is well-studied in the rich Carolina tradition. He just plans to carve his initials a little bit deeper into that family tree. Senior forward Brook Reves battles Loyola Marymount defenders in a 73-58 win last year. This year, Reves and other returnees will be expected to shoulder much of the load in the absence of graduated star Lynn Pride.

If I try to be a Smith or Guthridge, I don't think my players will respect me. I'm going to be Matt Doherty, and I hope that's good enough." so far she's nudged elbows the right way with North Carolina officials, who have high expectations for him. "He maintains the same character, quality and integrity that has always marked Carolina," said North Carolina chancellor James Moser. "He is the right person to keep this program number one in the country." Recruiting has always been Doherty's strong point, leaving him confident he can continue dressing the nation's elite talent in Carolina blue. Most of the key components return from last year's Final Four squad, including sophomore sensations Joseph Forte, guard, and Jason Capel, forward, and senior center Brendan Heywood. I feel like I can coach basketball," he said. "I feel like I can relate to kids and I can recruit. There's no better place in the country to recruit to than 'his place.'" That, however, is no guarantee the name alone will land the recruit. Doherty found that out the hard way last week when prized recruit Jason Parker was denied admittance to the University. He was expected to push Haywood in practice and then challenge for a starting role with the 'Heels. "It's unfortunate things have not worked out with him." Doherty said. "We were looking forward to Jason being a part of our program." Despite the Parker distraction, Doherty plans to move forward with the program and has outlined his primary goals. All are, obvious and relatively cliche, but they work for him: improve every day, take it one game at a time, win the Atlantic Coast Conference regular season title, win the ACC tournament and win the national championship. "Those will be my five goals every year I'm here," Doherty said. "If I start changing those goals, it's time to look for a new coach." — Edited by Warisa Chulindra Season of change in store for Jayhawks Women hoping recruits, returnees ease loss of Pride By Zac Hunter sports@kanson.com Kansas sportwriter Getting to know all the new players may be the biggest challenge for the Kansas women's basketball team in the early part of the 2000-2001 season. Three junior college transfers will join three incoming freshmen in filling out the Kansas roster for the upcoming season. The six newcomers, as well as all the returning players, will be faced with filling the holes left by the departing seniors, especially Lynn Pride. Pride led the Jayhawks last season in scoring, steals and blocks per game, and was selected by the Portland Fire with the seventh overall pick in the WNBA draft. KANSAS 5 KANSAS 34 Kansas coach Marian Washington said the new recruiting class will help fill the offensive hole left by Pride. "I think we've recruited well," Washington said. "We had to find some people who know how to put the ball in the basket." The six new players will be joining a veteran-laden team that finished last season 20-8 overall and 11-5 in the Big 12 Conference. The core of the team will consist of senior guard Jennifer Jackson and senior forwards Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson. The three combine for the bulk of the returning offensive firepower. Both Reves and Johnson averaged double figures in scoring last season, with 12.5 and 12.2 points per game respectively. Jackson averaged 8.2 points. Washington emphasized that the team's success would rely on the consistency of the three seniors. "It's going to be really important for Jennifer Jackson, Jaclyn Johnson and Brooke Reves to have solid seasons." Washington said. The prospect of the three having solid seasons is almost a lock, according to what Washington saw from them in the off season. She said Jackson was feeling good after off-season surgery and hoped she could play a season without pain for the first time at Kansas. Washington said the trademark of this season's team would be its strong defensive play. She said defense would keep the Jayhawks in games and would give them a chance to win. Other players are expected to use this year as a learning experience to become impact players next year. Washington said freshman guard Shanell Long was a great athlete with great shooting range and would be ready to be a major factor next year. Washington was hesitant to "We had to find some people who know how to put the ball to the basket."

Dalchon Brown, a recruit from Independence Community College, said that it was Washington and her philosophy that helped bring recruits to the school. At least, that's what sealed her commitment. "When I met the team and coaches, I just felt like I was at home," Brown said in November after signing with the team. "As far as the atmosphere and the school, education-wise I think it will be really good for me, and I will do well here. I work hard at everything I do, and I can work hard to be a good team leader. I have improved a lot. I can score and rebound, and I am becoming an all-round player." - Edited by Shawn Hutchinson WE'VE GOT THE BEST COMIC BOOKS IN TOWN!

LOUIS — Kent Bottenfield, pitching against his former team for the first time, threw a five-hitter for his first career shutout, leading Philadelphia to a victory against St. Louis.

Los Angeles 6 The Mets, who remained 1 1/2 games behind first-place Atlanta in the NL East, won their eighth straight series. Dodgers catcher Todd Hundley homered twice for his 12th career multi-homer game and second this season. Orioles finally get to Royals BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Orioles struggled for a third straight game against a Kansas City starting pitcher, scoring only one run in seven innings against Jeff Suppan. The Associated Press Then the bullpen door opened, and the Orioles' dormant offense suddenly came to life. Jeff Conine, a former Royal, doubled in the tie-breaking run in the eighth inning, supporting a fine pitching performance by Sidney Ponson and helping Baltimore end the Royals' four-game winning streak with a 2-1 victory yesterday. R Royals The Orioles had scored only two runs in 25 innings against Kansas City starters when Suppan left the game after the seventh. Royals manager Tony Muser turned the game over to Kris Wilson, who hadn't allowed a run in six relief outings since being called up from Double-A Wichita on July 28. The Orioles had Four batters later, the streak was over. The Associated Press Melvin Mora, who scored both Baltimore runs, led off the eighth with a walk. After a sacrifice bunt by Delino DeShields and an intentional walk to Albert Belle, Conine hit a drive to center that bounced over the wall. "When they're intentionally walking the guy in front of you, you want to come up big. I got a good piece of wood on it." Conine said. In his last appearance against the Orioles, Wilson (0-1) allowed three hits in 5 2/3 innings. On this occasion, the leadoff walk to Mora put the reliever in an immediate hole. "That's the last thing I want to do, especially coming in the bottom of the eighth on the road in a 1-1 game," Wilson said. "But it's almost automatically a guy in scoring position if you walk him." Muser lauded Suppan's effort, but said the right-hander had nothing left after his 107-pitch stint. "At that point, we felt he'd expended himself and given everything he had," Muser said. Ponson (7-8), who missed his last turn in the rotation because of tendinitis in his right shoulder, yielded six hits and two walks in eight innings, earning his second win in seven starts. "He was absolutely golden," said Orignes manager Mike Hargrove. Orioles' rookie Ryan Kohlmeier worked a perfect ninth for his fourth save in four chances, capping the team's second win in nine games against Kansas City this season. Jermaine Dye put the Royals up 1-0 in the fourth with his 30th homer and second in two games. It was the 24th home run allowed by Ponson in 25 starts. BOX SCORES "The home run was a changeup in the zone. I hung it and he got to it," Ponson said. AMERICAN LEAGUE Minnesota 201 000 000---- 3 9 2 Toronto 0 8 9 10 3 Milton, Carrasco (7), B.

"None," he said. "But don't think we're the only ones that answer." Well, how many players would make the three-deep roster for the defending national champions? "Four," said Amato, a Seminoles assistant for 18 years who took over the Wolfpack in January. Not exactly an encouraging number for those North Carolina State fans wondering "Why not us?" a season after freshman michael Vick led Virginia Tech into the national title game; Marshall and Tulane produced perfect seasons; and Hawaii turned an 18-game loss streak in the greatest one-year turnaround in NCAA history. The answer might be because Nebraska and Florida State, 1-2 in The Associated Press preseason poll, once again are loaded with talent and set for another charge to the title game, in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 3. So which team out there is ready for a surprising run? While Amato says it will take at least three years to turn a mediocre Wolfpack team into a contender — "it didn't come from Florida State to Nebraska," he said — that's not the case at Clemson, another ACC school trying to challenge Florida State. A bunch of others, including Illinois, Oklahoma and even Texas Christian, might be ready, too. At Clemson, the time is now — in coach Tommy Bowden's second season. The Tigers are No.17 in the poll, their best start since 1992. Alabama, Miami and Texas, ranked third, fifth and seventh, respectively, are expected to be back in national title form, but others are poised for a few surprises. In addition to Clemson, watch out for No. 15 USC in the Pac-10. No. 18 Mississippi in the SEC, No. 19 Oklahoma in the Big 12. No. 21 Illinois in the Big Ten, Pittsburgh in the Big East and No. 20 TCU in the Western Athletic Conference.

Jaguars rookie running back propels victory over Chiefs The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jacksonville may have found a running back. The question remains whether the Jaguars can find an offensive line that will give him room to run and quarterback Mark Brunell time to pass. Shyron Stith, a rookie taken in the seventh-round out of Virginia Tech. Tech, carried nine times for 103 yards, including a 78-yard TD run that catapulted the Jaguars to a 26-22 preseason victory Saturday night against the winless Kansas City Chiefs. But the Jaguars' injury-weekened line allowed three quarterbacks to get sacked seven times. While the Chiefs' offense once again failed to perform, there were bright spots on defense. "Obviously, we had some problems with protection," coach Tom Coughlin said. "We got some people run over. We have to continue to work and lock up those holes in the offensive line." Defensive end Duane Clemsons, signed as a free agent to help supply the pass-rushing void left by the death of Derrick CHIEFS Thomas, had two sacks in the first half. Defensive tackle John Browning also had two sacks for the Chiefs. "This is definitely one of the most talented groups I've ever been on," said Clemons, who had nine sacks last year for Minnesota. "When you look at all the veteran guys with Dishman, (James) Hasty, Donnie Edwards and Lew Bush, the defense is like a who's who of the best guys from around the league." Offense, however, remains in question. The Chiefs' attack has scored only two touchdowns in the past two weeks. "We're battling to get ready for (the regular-season opener) Sept. 3," coach Gunther Cunningham said of the 0-3 Chiefs. "You have to look for areas of improvement, and you have to make a statement at the beginning of the week of what you want to accomplish in the game, and I feel for the most part we accomplished those things." — Edited by Erin McDaniel Buccaneers slip by Patriots, 31-21 FOXBORO, Mass. — Two fluke plays gave the Tampa Bay Buccaneers two touchdowns as they warmed up for their regular-season opener at New England with a 31-21 exhibition win against the Patriots yesterday. The Bucs (2-1) took the lead for good at 17-14 when linebacker Jamie Duncan recovered a fumble in the end zone with 5:52 left in the third quarter after the ball slipped from quarterback Michael Bishop's hand as he brought it up to pass. Brad Johnson and Jeff George each completed a TD pass for Washington (2-1), the preseason favorite to win the Super Bowl. Washington 24, Cleveland 0 CLEVELAND — Skip Hicks scored two easy touchdowns, and Washington's starters pushed Cleveland's first team all around the field Saturday night as the Redskins rolled to a 24-0 victory against the Browns (1-2).

DENVER 30, DENVER DENVER — Brian Griese threw two touchdown passes barely two minutes apart in the second quarter, and Denver (3-0) easily beat Dallas. Clint Stoener, Dallas' fourthstring quarterback, rallied the Cowboys (0-4) to 17 second-half points. Buffalo 31, Saint Louis 27 ST. LOUIS — Kurt Warner's sore shoulder is history. The NFL's MVP was held out of practice for two days following the Rams' Monday night loss at Tennessee, but played most of the first half. He hit Marshall Faulk and Torry Holt for scores of 21 and 27 yards and was 14-for-21 for 196 yards. Buffalo's Rob Johnson also had a big half in an often sloppy game, going 8-for-12 for 237 yards and three touchdowns. Indianapolis 24, Pittsburgh 23 MEXICO CITY — In less than half a quarter, the Indianapolis Colts' Triple Threat scored more points against Pittsburgh than three other teams combined for the entire preseason. Peyton Manning threw two perfect touchdown passes within the first 7:26 of the Colts' 24-23 victory against the Steelers Saturday night.

Instead, the Comets advanced to their fourth-consecutive WNBA finals yesterday with a 74-69 victory against the Sparks, whose 28-4 regular-season record led the league. "We stepped it up a level, and we were able to beat a very good team on their home court," said Comets' guard Cynthia Cooper, who scored 29 points. "It was a tough game. We were felt we were underdogs." cer, Cooper rallied the Comets to a 2-0 series victory after winning Game 1 by 21 points in Houston. That's a role the Comets have rarely played during their four years in the WNBA. They've won three league championships and will go for a fourth beginning Thursday against either the New York Liberty or Cleveland Rockers, whose Eastern Conference finals series is tied 1-1. Game 3 is tonight. "Hopefully, they'll beat up on each other," said Houston's Sheryl Swoopes, who was held to eight points after being sick before the game. Playing one year and one day after her teammate and close friend Kim Perrot died of can- "This was a huge win for us," Swoopes said. "I don't think we thought about what happened in the regular season. We felt we could beat them in the playoffs." Swoopes began vomiting after arriving at the Forum, then got dizzy and had a headache. "There was never a question I wasn't going to be out there." she said. Janeth Arcain added 18 points for the Comets, including their final five. Her running SPARKS "Arcain is a star in Brazil and comes here and plays any role she has to." Cooper said. Mwadi Mabika led the Sparks with 19 points, and Kansas alum Tamecka Dixon added 17. Lisa Leslie had 12 points and 14 rebounds. "I loved our effort," said Sparks coach Michael Cooper, who was honored as WNBA coach of the year before the game. "There were some things that we could have done, some shots that didn't go in that normally fall, but that's the way it goes." In their deathly quiet locker room, several Sparks players covered their heads with their hands. Houston coach Van Chancellor dropped in and silently shook hands with the Sparks. and made shots they normally don't make." "We feel like we did a great job this year and we just really lost to a very good team," Leslie said. "We followed what we needed to for Sheryl and Cynthia to distribute the ball to other players, and the other players played well. They took shots they normally don't take COMETS "Their fans showed up and tried to make a difference and almost did." Chancellor said. "This is a great win for us, especially after they won all three games. That's the happiest I've seen them in the locker room. I don't know if they were that happy after we won the championship." Edited by Erin Adamson Liberty defeat Rockers to prolong series The Associated Press NEW YORK — The New York Liberty's 19-0 first-half run forced another game, but the Cleveland Rockers' strong second half gave them hope for tonight's finale. "It was two entirely different games in the first and second halves," Liberty coach Richie Adubato said yesterday after his team held on for a 51-45 victory that evened the best-of-three WNBA playoff series 1-1. "I feel confident about tomorrow ... but I'm concerned with the way we let down in the second half." "We came out very intense and very aggressive, controlled the backboards and were able to get out and get some easy baskets," Adubato said of the Tamika Whitmore had the first two baskets and the last two during New York's 10-minute run that turned a 7-5 deficit into a 24-7 lead for the Liberty, who first half. "They outre-bounded us by 10 in the second half and had eight offensive rebounds, so we weren't NEW YORK LIBERTY able to run, and consequently we only scored 15 points in the second half." The Liberty, who have won 12 straight at Madison Square Garden, play host for the Eastern Conference series for tonight's finale. The winner advances to the WNBA Finals against Houston, which has twice defeated New York in the final round. Becky Hammon led the Liberty with 13 points, Taril Phillips scored 12 and Whitmore finished with 10. Merlakia Jones led Cleveland with 18 points, and Chasity Melvin had 10. Jones led the Rockers' second half turnaround, scoring 14 points on six of 11 shooting. "I think we have a great chance tomorrow night (tonight)," she said. "I don't think our first half was anything they did to us, and we showed that in the second half." The Rockers, trailing by 19 at halftime, started the second half with an 8-2 spurt to make it 37-25, and a 6-0 run closed them to 45:36 with 6:47 left. But Hammon responded with a jumper and a steal that led to a Vickie Johnson layup, giving New York a 49-36 advantage with 5:51 remaining. A three-pointer by Jones closed the Rockers to 51-43 with 1:53 left, but they missed three three-pointers down the stretch and managed just one more basket with 8.7 seconds to go. The Liberty, who led 36-17 at naftime, outrebounded Cleveland 16-14 in the first half, but the Rockers had a 20-10 rebounding margin in the second half. "It was more our offense than their defense that caused it," said Rockers coach Dan Hughes. "We needed a more assertive attitude. We were a little anxious, playing a little too fast." ___ With the convenience of INDIVIDUAL LEASES live with three of your best friends and worry only about yourself.

All that did was bring out a passion rarely seen and a performance that ranks among his best. In a fitting conclusion to perhaps the greatest summer of golf, Woods birdied the last two holes in regulation and won the PGA Championship in a playoff against Bob May, becoming the first player since Ben Hogan in 1953 to win three majors in one year. This wasn't a runaway like the U.S. and British Opens. Not with the steely determination in his eyes. Not with sweat pouring down the side of his face. Not the way he charged after putts as they fell into the cup, and pumped his fists like never before. The thrills didn't end yesterday until May, the most unlikely of challengers, nearly made a 40-foot birdie putt on the final hole of the three-hole playoff. Woods blasted out of a bunker to 2 feet and made the putt for par. It was the easiest shot he had all afternoon. Woods now has won four of the last five majors, but this was his first in a playoff. By winning at Valhalla Golf Club, he became the first player to repeat as PGA champion since Denny Shute in 1937, and the first since it went to stroke play in 1958. But Woods didn't just win the PGA. He now holds the scoring record in relation to par in every major championship, an 18-under 270 that allowed him to get into the playoff. Last month at St. Andrews, the 24-year-old Woods became the youngest player to complete the career Grand Slam, with an eight-stroke victory. In June, he won the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach by 15 shots. This was no less impressive. "The fireworks started on the back nine," Woods said. "This is probably one of the greatest duels I've ever had in my life. Hats off to Bob. He played his heart out." May tested Woods like no one else in the last two majors, taking the lead with a two-shot swing on the second hole and never giving it up "I think I have a big heart," said May, who closed with a 6-under 66. "People weren't expecting me to do what I did. I think I proved to them that I can play golf. until the end. "If I would have won, it would have been a dream come true." Tied with Woods going to the 72nd hole, May hoaked an 18-foot birdie putt from the fringe that put Woods in a perilous situation — a 6-foot birdie putt to get into the playoff. It curled in on the left side, Woods punching his fist and letting out a roar. Woods took a one-stroke lead on the first playoff hole. No, 16, but not until after May showed he wasn't going away, hitting a 70-yard chip from the rough that stopped inches from the cup. Woods tracked his 25-foot birdie putt, trotting after it and pointing at the ball as it dropped for birdie. Both players made impressive par saves on the 17th, setting the stage for even more drama on the 18th. Woods hit his drive well to the left and into a sycamore tree. It dropped onto a cart path, bouncing so high it hit the tree again before rolling down the path onto some trampled dirt. He hit his approach into the left rough and his third shot into a bunker. After Woods hit out of the bunker to 2 feet, May's only hope was to make a putt that was as long as his chances. It almost went in. But May failed to capitalize. He hit across the fairway into more rough, and his approach caught the ridge on the horseshoe-shaped 18th green, about 40 feet away. But this year — this game -- belongs to Woods. He closed with a 67, his 15th consecutive round at par or better in the majors. He has had at least a share of the lead in 11 of the last 12 rounds in the majors, unprecedented domination. Hogan won the Masters and the U.S. and British opens in 1953. He could not play in the PGA because his legs were too battered from a car accident, and the PGA was held during the same week as British Open qualifying that year. Hogan never won another major. Woods is still getting warm up. Swede snags Women's British Open win The Associated Press SOUTHPORT, England — Sophie Gustafson began the final round of the Women's British Open with a seven-stroke lead and was nine shots in front after one hole. But the championship still came down to the 18th hole yesterday. After giving away nearly all of her lead, Gustafson made a 5-foot birdie putt at the last hole to finish her 2-over-par 75 and wrap up the title by two strokes against a group of four golfers. "This is my biggest thrill in golf, easily, but it is also a big relief," Gustafson said. "It was a bit tougher than I expected it to be but is very nice to have come through to win." The 26-year-old Chicago-based Swede, second at the event two years ago, finished at 10-under 282 on the Royal Birkdale course. Meg Mallon, who won last week's du Maurier Classic for her third career major title, shot a 70 yesterday, tying fellow American Becky Iverson (69), Liselotte Neumann (69) and Kirsty Taylor (67) for second place at 8 under. Laura Philo of the United States finished another stroke back, with Karrie Webb, penalized two shots Saturday for a rule infringement on the first hole alone in seventh place. At the 1st hole, Gustafson hit a 4-iron second shot to within 2 feet and made the eagle putt, while Mallon could only make par. But that nine-stroke lead did not last long. But that nine shot was Gustafson's second shot at the 2nd hole finished in deep rough on the side of a steep hill beside the green. Her first attempt failed to dislodge the ball, so she took a penalty drop at the top of the hill. A chip and a putt from 8 feet limited the damage to a double bogey. Mallon boyedey that hole but then birdied the 4th, 5th and 6th. Gustafson boyedey the 7th, 8th and 9th holes, and her lead dropped to two shots. "I thought, 'Oh my God, what am I doing?'" Gustafson said. A birdie at the 15th hole and six pars seemed to make her safe, but she found a greenside bunker at the par-5 17th, just barely escaped from it onto the fringe, chipped poorly to 20 feet and two putted for another bogey. Then, two 3-woods put Gustafson into the bunker at the last, but she managed to recover. "I decided to go for the green at the last because the shot is easier than laying up," she said. "But I was worrying how I was playing and how the others were playing. I obviously didn't play very well." Mallon, who missed a 15-foot eagle attempt at the 18th, was unhappy to have come so close. "After being nine behind, to come within two shots and have a chance, I am a little disappointed I couldn't close the door," Mallon said. "You have to give Sophie a lot of credit. Her game was going south a little bit, but she never seemed to lose her cool when her game wasn't there like it had been the last three days." — Edited by Erin Adamson Here We "GROW" Again!

And sometimes a network can just get lucky. The Associated Press That appears to be the case with TNN, a sleepy backwater on cable once known as The Nashville Network. TNN is the unlikely beneficiary of a court decision this summer that enabled its corporate parent, Viacom, to take over cable's most popular programming, wrestling shows produced by the World Wrestling Federation. After the WWF won permission to escape the USA network in favor of a more lucrative deal with Viacom, their signature Monday night entries, Raw is War and Live Wire, were scheduled to switch to TNN this fall. probably in late September. TNN has erased the "Nashville" in its name over the past few years, eager to rid itself of an identification with country music. When that happens, TNN instantly goes from no profile to high profile, and the television world is curious to see whether it can take advantage of the good fortune. "We're going to be changing the image of the network a lot faster than we probably would have if we didn't have the WWF," said David Hall, TNN president. For Tom Freston, head of MTV Networks, who began overseeing TNN after the merger of CBS and Viacom, said it's the first attempt to mold a channel with a more general approach. "We don't know exactly what we're going to do yet," he said. Arguably, TNN as it now exists is a better fit for the WWF than USA, said Larry Gerbrandt, a cable analyst for Paul Kagan and Associates. Because of the court decision, a pro wrestling show will also land on MTV on Sunday nights. That may be more of a jarring juxtaposition for MTV viewers, since the network makes music its centerpiece. Freston said the Sunday wrestling show will have a strong music tie-in.

Ahh, the memories. Godzilla 2000, opening Friday, is the first of the Japanese reptile flicks to play American theaters in 15 years. Distributor Sony is launching the new movie in about 2,000 theaters, hoping nostalgia for one of moviedom's favorite behemoths and interest in Japanese creations such as Pokemon will help fill seats. The idea to return the low-tech lizard to cinemas came when Sony distribution chief Jeff Blake visited Japan last year and saw huge lines for the movie at theaters. "Clearly, the Godzilla myth is downright beloved in Japan," he said. "People here certainly have a lot of recognition for Godzilla. There's some affection for him among baby boomers, and kids may take to it because things like Pokemon have them interested in Japanese product." The monster's first screen appearance came in 1954. Since Godzilla supposedly evolved because of radiation created by humans, some have intellectualized the monster as a cautionary tale about nuclear power and weapons. Others simply found the movies goofy fun. Toho Studios, current producer of the movies, killed off the monster in 1995's Godzilla vs. Destoryar in anticipation of the coming Hollywood version. Though 1986's Godzilla, starring Matthew Broderick, grossed a healthy $380 million worldwide, many fans felt it failed to capture the spirit of the giant reptile, who generally tries to protect humanity despite his destructiveness. his use. For Godzilla 2000, Toho simply picked up the story as if the monster had never died. This time, Godzilla battles a 60-million-year-old meteorite that transforms into a UFO and later another gigantic creature. The theatrical release of Godzilla 2000 is not a huge risk for Sony. The studio acquired the U.S. rights, reedit the movie and dubbed it into English for less than $1 million. Film prints and advertising run an estimated $10 million to $12 million, modest by Hollywood standards. Like previous Japanese takes on Godzilla, the title character is played by a stunt man (Tsutomu Kitagawa) inside an elaborate costume. Instead of the computer-animated effects when Godzilla took Manhattan in the Hollywood version, the creature in Godzilla 2000 runs amok on miniature sets. The effects are a notch above previous Godzilla movies but are still primitive. The movie also features the wretched dialogue audiences love to giggle over, part of the campy charm of a Godzilla picture. "I can't imagine a life form that could survive 60 million years," utters one character. "Good Lord, let's just hope it is friendly." Movie documents life of hippie activist The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Abbie Hoffman is gone, but the hippie prankster's spirit lingers. A new movie tracing Hoffman's 1960s activism, odd romantic life and years as a fugitive, hits theaters Friday. Steal This Movie stars Vincent D'Onofrio as Hoffman, Janeane Garofalo as his wife, Anita, and Jeanne Triplephelle as his common-law wife, Johanna Lawrenson. The movie comes three decades after the Chicago Seven trial and 11 years after Hoffman's death, which was ruled a suicide. The scene outside this summer's Democratic National Convention at times resembled the giddy anarchy in which Hoffman played a leading role during the 1968 convention, with police in riot gear, rubber bullets fired at protesters and officers on horseback chasing off demonstrators. book Steal This Book. "Abbie would be joyous," said Robert Greenwald, producer and director of Steal This Movie, whose title was borrowed from Hoffman's "He would have been dancing down the street, rocking and rolling with Rage Against the Machine, singing backup to Bonnie Raitt, making the puppets," Greenwald said. "He stood for changing the world but having fun while doing it. Making love and still making a revolution." Steal This Movie traces Hoffman's beginnings as a buttoned-down campus activist whose clean-cut look prompts a student to call him a narc, his development into a wild-haired social trickster who organized the "levitation" of the Pentagon by antiwar protesters and the circus-like Chicago Seven trial. In his spirit, the filmmakers have been lending Steal This Movie for screenings to benefit Planned Parenthood. Refuse & Resist and other social groups. "Through that, through the benefit screenings, the movie is trying to do what Abby did his whole life," D'Onofrio said. "He made protesting for social change interesting, he made it exciting."

SANTA FE STATE MUSEUM Section C · Page 2 The University Daily Kansan Monday, August 21, 2000 Campus legal services offers advice Attorneys help solve problems for little,no fee By Veronica Rosas Special to the Kansan Students with legal problems ranging from landlord-tenant relations to drunken-driving charges can find help at Legal Services for Students at 148 Burge Union. Legal Services for Students has three attorneys and six legal interns on staff. The service is usually free. Michele A. Kessler, associate director of legal services, said that the problems students presented usually involved in landlord or tenant conflicts, traffic violations, minor-in-possession citations, drunken driving, and possession or use of false identification. Wendy Rohleder, Plainsville third-year law student, has been a legal services intern for almost a year. She said when a student came into the office, an intern would meet with the student, consult a supervising attorney, then meet with the client again and offer advice and discuss options. In landlord and tenant conflicts, students may have found something wrong with the apartment or may not have received their deposit. If the landlord sues the tenant, legal services will represent the student for a $15 paperwork fee, Kessler said. She said that legal services will represent the student in court for landlord conflicts or consumer-related cases. Kessler said that some cases at legal services were domestic. "With the diversity of the KU population it's not all traditional-aged college students," Kessler said. She said sometimes students needed information on divorce or custody issues. Kessler said legal services also gave advice to student who had been assaulted, but often advised the student to consult a private attorney as well. If a student has been accused of a violent crime, he or she could seek advice from legal services, but the student would be referred to a private attorney. Legal services also ofters advice on sexual harassment cases. Kessler said. Kessler said legal services would provide counsel for writing a will, estate information and third-party medical decisions. It also gives legal advice for taxes, copyrights, patents and fundraising projects. If a student has a conflict with another KU student, Kessler said legal services could not help because it would create a conflict of interest. When legal services cannot represent the student, it helps the student find an attorney if one is needed, Kessler said. Students are referred to the Kansas Lawyers Referral Service, which offers the names of attorneys in the area. —Edited by BriAnne Hess Computers, food to be accessible all night at Union Bv Veronica Rosas By Veronica Rosas Special to the Kunsan Construction of a 24-hour computer lab and convenience store will begin this fall on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. David Mucci, director of the Kansas and Burge Unions, said that the 50-computer, 1,500-square foot lab will be located where the Union's business office is and that the convenience store will replace the Union's candy counter. The Union's plan is to have the computer lab and convenience store operating by spring, Mucci said. convenience store operating by spring, located David Johnston, marketing coordinator for the Kansas and Burge Unions, said that the Union was used a lot when it was open 24 hours during finals but that students did not have access to a convenience store, a computer lab or printing services. Now they will. Mucci said that Mailboxes, etc. also may be open 24 hours. "If people want to study in the lounge they've got convenience items," Johnston said. "They can get Cokes. They can get candy. They can get microwaveable food — whatever. They can have computers accessible 24 hours a day." "It's a nice, central location," Neufeld said. Jesselyn Neufeld, Olathe senior, said the addition of the new convenience store and computer lab was a good idea, especially for finals. When Neufeld worked on group projects during finals, she met her group at the Union. Neufeld said it was convenient when the Union was open 24 hours during finals but that she and her group would have to go off-campus for services such as printing. Building another 24-hour computer lab on campus had been discussed for a few years. One plan that was later rejected was to replace the Union's Jaybowl with a cyber cafe, which would have included a computer lab and a coffee shop. Johnston and Mucci said that another plan was to put a computer lab on the Union's third level at the northeast corner of the food court but that the plan would have been too expensive. The computers for the new lab will be provided by Academic Computing Services, said Silky, ACS help-desk manager and lab manager Edited by Chris Fickett On-campus jobs abound By Brandy Straw Special to the Kansan Sara H. Hill, Arlington, Texas, junior, works in the main reception area for the department of student housing. She said she worked on campus because it was convenient. Her job lets her go to school in the morning, work in the afternoon and study in the evening. Students at the University of Kansas can earn money between classes through part-time jobs on campus. KU jobs include inside and outside work, office work, computer-related jobs and maintenance work. There are hourly positions, work-study positions and some salaried positions. "Everything you can imagine," said Ann Hartley, associate director of University Career and Employment Services. Jobs pay $5.15 an hour or more. A position listed that required computer skills listed in July paid $8 per hour. The employers who hire the most students are the libraries and the department of student housing. Hartley said. The libraries employ 300 students each semester, said Barbara Woodruff, assistant personnel officer for libraries. Students working in the libraries can be found shelving books or behind counters. In the circulation and reserve departments, students check in and out materials, input records onto the library computer system, sort books and help patrons. The fines department hires students to keep records, collect money for overdue books Watson Library has 20 different departments that hire students. and search for missing books. These positions start at minimum wage, but a few pay more because they have more responsibility. Woodruff said. The department of student housing employs students to work in the residence halls, scholarship halls, Jayhawker Towers, Stauffer Place, the dining centers and the academic resource centers in the halls, said Teresa Krambeer, student employment coordinator for the student housing department. Academic resource assistants check in and out library materials and help organize and display library materials. Other student housing jobs are custodial assistants and dining services assistants. Desk assistants coordinate hall tours, answer phones, issue keys, distribute mail and respond to emergency situations. Security monitors patrol residence halls. Skilled-trades assistants work with full-time employees maintaining the halls. They paint, landscape, and repair electricity, air conditioning and plumbing. Dining, custodial and maintenance positions begin at $6 per hour. Other positions with the department of student housing begin at $5.75 per hour. The department of facilities operations hires students in custodial and maintenance positions. Custodial duties include trash removal, sweeping and mopping, and buffing floors. Lawn maintenance workers mow, pick up trash, shovel snow and landscape. Building maintenance workers change incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs on campus or clean and service motor-pool cars in the garage. All positions are paid $5.65 an hour, unless the hours worked are before 6 a.m. or after 6 p.m. Then students can earn $5.90 an hour, said Glennnett Corel, office assistant for the department of facilities operations. Hilltop Childhood Development Center hires students to be teacher aides, assisting classroom teachers with different activities, such as art projects or field trips. The job pays minimum wage, said Sara Barth, program director for the center. On-campus jobs have advantages beyond earning extra spending money. Most employers are willing to work around class schedules and final exams, said Gail Rooney, director of career services. Heather McReynolds, Amarillo, Texas, senior, works as a student assistant for career services. She said the offices were usually pretty flexible. "They'll let you off when you need to study," she said. Career services posts jobs on the web at www.ukans.edu/~upc, and outside its offices at Room 110 in Burge Union. The listings indicate the type of work, qualifications, salary information, number of hours required and whom to contact. If the positions don't seem interesting, don't despair, Rooney said. "I encourage students to keep looking," Rooney said. "The positions are constantly being updated." The final step is to go to the office posting the position and complete an application. Career services has its Student Employment Fair at 9 a.m. Aug. 22 on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. — Edited by Ben Embry Quirky queries rumor control occupy KU info By Nick Krug Special to the Kansan KU Info was swamped. Twenty calls an hour were coming in about Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams. Was he really going? The Associated Press created one of the biggest rumors in KU Info's history when it reported that Williams intended to announce that he was leaving to coach the North Carolina Tar Heels. "When you start getting a few similar calls in an hour, you know that something is stirring," said Jessica Zahn, Wamogo junior and KU info operator. The University of Kansas Athletics Department and Sports Information either didn't know or wouldn't say whether Williams was leaving. susan Elkins, program director for KU info, said she contacted the Laurence Journal-World and CNN, both of whom told her Williams was leaving. "So we were also telling callers that he was leaving." Elkins said. "It wasn't until around 12 noon that we found out that it was all a rumor. We feel badly about helping to create rumors, but we tell what we know." When most people think of KU Info — the University of Kansas Information Center — they think of the easiest means of getting information about the University, answers to trivia questions or other queries that someone might be too embarrassed to ask a friend, such as, "Where is Wescoe Hall?" But KU info's first priority hasn't always been answering quick questions. The information center was created in 1970 — a year when campus shootings, the Kansas Union fire and the Vietnam War were creating student unrest on campus. Now, KU info serves more as an encyclopedia for students, faculty, the Lawrence community and people around the world rather than a rumor-control center. But rumors do present themselves in all shapes and sizes. When a particular calling trend takes place, it is documented on a notecard and placed in the KU Info rumor box for record-keeping. The box contains rumors ranging from student deaths to school cancellations. "People all over the world from other countries call us to find out the basketball schedule or who won the game because KU Info is one of the big phone numbers that everybody remembers after they leave." Elkins said. A recent falsity of devastating proportions to the male population was the rumor that Britney Spears was planning to attend the University next semester. The same vicious lie is floating around Kansas State University. Some rumors are downright horrific. Elkins said, "One of the major rumors that comes about every three to four years is that a Wichita gang will come to KU on Halloween to decapitate sorority girls and then place the heads on the front lawn of their sororities," she said. "Not only students, but many parents have called in concerned about this one." A harmless rumor that generates a significant amount of calls is that the new fall break begins this year. "Although the fall break is not scheduled until the year 2001, we've received many calls from not just students, but many faculty members as well, who are confused about this issue," Elkins said. KU Info has come a long way since its inception. Although its operators may sometimes be misinformed, they remain some of the few on-campus information providers in the country. Have a question?

Brothers, a Lawrence sculptor, was commissioned to make 10 bronze figures for the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va. He said he had seen veterans cry when they looked at the sculptures that were already in place at the unfinished memorial. Brothers' assistant, Ken Wheatley, said his mother cried when she saw one of the sculptures called "Across the Beach." She lost a brother in the fighting in Normandy, France, after D-Day. Brothers said he felt obligated to D-Day veterans to get it right. He has brought pieces of World War II U.S. Army military equipment to his Lawrence studio to use as models. And he has spent a lot of time with D-Day veterans. "We've researched enough with the veterans that we are like channelers for them," he said. "You want to get it right not just for yourself, but for them. These people are my heroes. You want to get it right for them. They come up, shake my hand, and say I've got it. That's one of the rewards of the job." Fifty-six year ago, Allied Forces invaded German-occupied Normandy. By the end of June 6, 1944, 6,603 Americans and 3,000 Allies were dead, but the Allied Forces had a firm foothold in France, and the defeat of Nazi Germany had begun. But it was not until 1996 that a national D-Day memorial was planned. Richard Burrow, president of the National D-Day Memorial Foundation, said the memorial was authorized by Congress in 1996. Fund-raising started in 1997. Since then, the foundation has raised $12.2 million. Construction has begun and dedication of the memorial is scheduled for June 6, 2001. The memorial will include a 44-foot, six-inch granite-covered arch on a plaza surrounded by the flags of the 12 Allied nations, Burrows said. Brothers' sculptures will depict invasion scenes. "Across the Beach," which depicts a soldier dragging a wounded man out of the line of fire, and "Death on Shore," which portrays a dead soldier on the beach, are done. Brothers said "Across the Beach" was placed temporarily at the entrance to the monument, where it is framed by the arch. Brothers said it works so well that it might be kept there permanently, so he could end up creating additional figures for the memorial. Brothers is working in his Lawrence studio on a composition called "The Wall" that will depict four soldiers scaling a wall. He said it would be the centerpiece of the monument. Four seven-and-a-half foot figures made of metal skeletons and foam bodies covered with green clay fill Brothers' Lawrence studio. One is carrying a Tommy gun and throwing a leg over the top of the wall. Another is falling. The third man pulls the fourth up the wall. The piece is based on U.S. Army Rangers' assault up sheer cliffs at Pointe-du-Hoc on D-Day. brothers said one of the inspirations for the piece was August Rodin's "Gates of Hell." "If there ever was a gate of hell, it was that day," Brothers said. "Pointe-du-Hoc was considered a suicide mission." Three-quarters of the 200 men of the 2nd Ranger Battalion were killed or wounded in the assault, according to historian Stephen Ambrose's book, *D-Day*. Other units had heavier losses on D-Day. Company A of the 116th Regiment lost more than 90 percent of its men at Omaha Beach, the site of the fiercest German resistance. Most of the men of A Company were from Bedford. Twenty-one men from Bedford were killed on D-Day. That's why the memorial is in Bedford, said Memorial Foundation president Burrow. Brothers said the models for the figures were 17- and 18-year-old kids from Lawrence. That helps remind us of how young the D-Day veterans were in 1944, Brothers said. Ken Wheatley's son Chris is the model for the soldier at the top of the wall. Brothers said the D-Day memorial was for all World War II veterans. D-Day was the deciding day of the war, and the national World War II memorial is progressing slowly, he said. "This may be the only World War II memorial these guys will see," Brothers said. "They're dying off at 1,000 a day. This is for them all." "It's the most impressive monument I've ever seen. I feel very honored to be part of this. How many people get a chance to do a national monument? I couldn't be prouder. This will be there long after we're dead." Brothers said he was chosen for the project based on Jim Brothers, Lawrence resident, forms the clay on a soldier sculpture in his studio. Brothers was commissioned to make 10 bronze figures for the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va. Photo by Aaron Lindenk / KANSAN his past work. He recently created busts of the Lakota chief Red Cloud for the Nebraska Capitol and the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, and his sculpture "Flight" is dedicated to the kids and teachers who died in the Oklahoma City bombing. Brothers originally planned to be an illustrator when he attended Phillips University in Oklahoma, but a sculpture class got him interested in three-dimensional art. He returned to his native Kansas to attend graduate school at the University of Kansas in 1969 and 1970. "The art business is less competitive in three-dimensional work than in two-dimensional." Brothers said. "Maybe because it's harder. There's a lot of messy manual labor," he said, gesturing with his clay-covered hands. Four Midwest cities top choices for University graduates Bv Melissa Freedman Special to the Kansan The beginning of a student's senior year is not too early to begin thinking about where the student wants to live and work after graduation, said Ann Hartley, associate director of the University of Kansas Job Placement Center. Hartley listed four cities as top choices for KU graduates: the Kansas City area, St. Louis, Chicago and Dallas. Since there is a need for teachers in "Most people want to live in larger cities because of the opportunities," she said. "However, if a person is from a small town, it is likely they will stay in a small town." the Kansas City area, almost 65 percent of students who get their teaching degree from the University will stay in Kansas," Hartley said. Some cities may offer more opportunities for specific job categories than others, she said. Chicago, for example, with its large number of major advertising agencies, may be an ideal choice St. Louis is another popular postgraduation destination for KU graduates. For those Kansas students who want to get out of state—but not too far—St. Louis offers opportunities in the communications and liberal arts fields. for those earning a degree in advertising or a related field. Hartley pointed out that a number of event planning and graphic design jobs have been offered in Chicago. Dallas also offers many opportunities for liberal arts majors. Hartley said. "Texas is a popular state for KU graduates," she said. "The University of Kansas draws students from many big cities throughout the entire United States," she said. "Many students want to go back from where they came. Not many people are willing to take the risk of going someplace where they have no connections and where they will know no one." Hartley also said having basic computer knowledge was important because technology was a part of every day life and work.

Sixth Street Fitness, 2500 W. Sixth St. Total Fitness Athletic Center, 925 low St. Weighty wallet workout By Gina Kohake Special to the Kansan Although students pay $13 in campus fees to use Robinson Center, many also choose to pay about $20 a month to join private health club. Nick Hale, Wichita junior, said, "I don't go to Robinson because it reminds me too much of a dungeon. They don't have the greatest equipment, and you always have to wait in line." Bob Lockwood, Robinson facility director, said the University's workout center didn't have enough space for the number of students who wanted to use it. "The facility is actually set up to teach classes," Lockwood said. "We do well enough with the equipment we have, but no matter what, it is hard to accommodate 25,000 students." Robinson is on the south side of campus. The building houses workout equipment for students, but is also the site of classes, such as aerobics, running and weightlifting. Because classes often are in session during the day, the center is usually open for students who want to work out only in the evening or in intervals between classes. This semester, the hours will be from 6 to 7:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights, and 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays. Robinson also will be open during the day on Satdays and Sundays. Warren Corman, University architect, said the state legislature had approved the University's proposal for a new recreation center. Plans are being discussed for the center, which will be built in the field south of Watkins Memorial Health Center. Other fitness clubs throughout Lawrence offer a range of membership options for students. Nick Hale joined LAC. He said he thought the advantages of a private club outweighed the extra cost. Lawrence Athletic Club and Total Fitness Athletic Center welcome student members. "Lawrence Athletic Club offers a better selection of machines," Hale said. "They are always new too, since LAC leases them." Lawrence Athletic Club has one facility at 3201 Mesa Way and another at 2108 W. 27th St. Hale said he went to the club on 27th because it was a more popular location for students. "I really like it." Hale said. "You are surrounded by a lot of people your own age. It makes working out more interesting." The gym has different rates depending on which facilities — such as the weight room and swimming pool — members want to use. A student gym membership at the 27th Street facility would cost a student around $21 a month, plus a one-time $99 membership fee. Total Fitness, 925 Iowa, is a good option for students because it's open 24 hours, said owner Marty Tuley. "Accessibility is one thing that sets us apart from the rest," Tuley said. "We are open 24 hours, so everyone has time to work out." Amy Miller, Leavenworth senior, said Total Fitness made it a little easier to work out because it provided entertainment — rows of television screens in the aerobic-machine room. "I like the television factor at Total Fitness because you can work out and watch TV," Miller said. "It passes the time." Total Fitness has different plans for students, but Tuley said many students chose the two-year deal, which costs about $25 a month with no joining fee. "This is a great time for health and wellness," said Lockwood, Robinson director. "I remember a government agency saying the other day that the greatest disease is obesity, and the only cure is health. I think students are becoming aware of that and trying to do something about it." - Edited by Mindie Miller KU sorority rush participants to wear T-shirts on first day By Keeley Thurston Special to the Kansas Prospective sorority members will wear Hawk Week T-shirts rather than their own outfits on the first day of recruitment this fall. The Panhellenic Association, the coordinating body of the 13 sororities at the University of Kansas, says it wants sororites to judge women by their character, not by their clothes. "It is not about what accessories a woman has," said Kelly J.Karnes, assistant director of Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center. The recruitment period — or rush — begins August 20 and lasts five days. The University of Kansas is joining other universities who are making the change to wearing T-shirts the first day, including the University of Missouri. About 1000 women are expected to take part in recruitment this fall. On the first day of recruitment, the women visit all 13 sororities. The sororites invite fewer women back each day. At the end of the week, the women visit three sororites and receive a bid from one. Panhellenic says it wants to move to a nofrills recruitment, show the women a united Greek system and make the potential recruits feel] at ease on the first day. The National Panhellenic Conference, the coordinating body of all college Panhellenic Associations, is encouraging other changes at the University, including adding a philanthropy day in which participants perform a community service during recruitment. Many sorority members are in favor of the changes. "It is a positive thing and wearing the same thing brings the pressure down a notch," said Julie Hall, assistant recruitment chair for Kappa Kappa Gamma and Topeka junior. Women participating in recruitment are given a pamphlet that includes the type of outfit they should wear each day. Outfits for recruitment begin with a simple sundress and get more formal each day, usually ending in a black cocktail dress. Edited by Phil Cauthon At a DEAD END?

Richard Clement, Special Collections librarian, said the one major benefit of looking for a book at a non-borrowing library was that the books were always there. William Crowe, librarian, said the library's forbidding architecture and somewhat-hidden location behind Strong Hall could intimidate students, but that students should make the trek and visit the collection. "We can put you in touch with original records of human experience." he said. The library gives people a chance to get their hands on original material, he said, not just a second-hand source filtered through other authors' perspectives.

The program costs $85 per semester. Groups are limited to four students and meet three hours a week. The groups will mainly meet in residence halls. Any student enrolled may sign up. Applications are available in the Student Development Center Office, in 22 Strong Hall. Mary Ann Rasnak, center director, said that all students could benefit from the tutoring program, but that students in transition—freshmen, sophomores, or new students—might find them most helpful. The subjects available for tutoring—biology, chemistry, economics, Spanish and math—are ones that have traditionally given college students a difficult time. given college students a limited number. Rasnak said that in the past, tutoring was available only by referral and that the center had little knowledge of tutors' abilities. And students formerly paid about $10 per hour for the tutoring sessions. The new program will be a better investment for students, and tutors are more accurately screened, she said. Tutors are juniors, seniors or graduate students with faculty recommendations attesting to their academic ability, Rasnak said. Applicants are also interviewed on their communication and people skills. Tutors are trained each semester in recognizing learning disabilities and tutoring strategies. ing usabilities and tutoring. When students have difficulty with academics, Rasnak encourages them to take the Learning and Study Strategies Inventory. The inventory is a computer questionnaire about study habits. The outcome of the test provides a starting point to help students improve their performance. Each semester, the center organizes a series of Academic Success Workshops. The workshops are free. Topics vary from time management to overcoming test anxiety. Information for the workshops is also available in the office. also available in the center. The center is not the only place students can turn to for help. Supportive Educational Services is a program especially designed for students with disabilities, those who need help in getting financial aid or those who are first-generation college students. The program provides small group and drop-in tutoring, foreign language help and counseling. For students struggling with writing or editing papers and essays, the Writer's Roosts could be the answer. The main roost is at Room 4005 in Wescoe Hall. The other roost is on the KU Edwards Campus in Overland Park. Writer's Roosts are free and open to students. For academic advising and enrollment assistance, students can go to the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center. The center is mainly for newer students, but any student can use its services. It provides academic advising, peer advisers, and guidance in choosing majors and classes. Freshmen taste independence, homesickness By Melissa Davis special to the kansan Leaving home and jumping into a newfound independence can be exciting for first-year students. But independence can have a downside — homesickness. independence can have a positive impact. Dr. Frank DeSalve, director of University Counseling and Psychological Services, said many factors contributed to homesickness. But a major cause, he said, was missing the people back home. Students facing a new environment with new freedoms and new responsibilities can feel uncertain and long for familiar faces — parents, high school friends, boyfriends and girlfriends. Ryan Atkinson, LaVerne, Calif., junior, said he thought it wasn't home many new students missed, but relationships with people back home. "I don't miss home," he said, "but I do miss my girlfriend who still lives there." DeSalvo said there were two ways homesickness could occur as students made the transition from high school to college. "Either the student is homesick, or the parent misses the student, so they call, creating a system of the student not wanting to let go of home—or home not wanting to let the child go." DeSalvo said. going to let the child go. Sometimes parents have a harder time dealing with the separation. This was the case for Tony Damiani, Tempe, Ariz., junior. tempta. ARIZ. JENNIFER "I was happy to move away from my parents and have more independence," he said. "My moving away was hard on my mom, not me. She would call every day. If "Some students just don't want to be here, and parents want them here," DeSalvo said. "Some students just wanted to go to a smaller school. Homesickness is a way out for some students from an environment they don't want to be in. A way to excuse themselves from the situation." my thing, she was upset that I wash my homesick. DeSalvo said that homesickness could be a symptom of deeper issues. anything, she was upset that I wasn't homesick." from the situation. DeSalvo said students in this kind of situation should confront their parents and tell them how they feel. He said college students should be learning to make their own decisions. make their own decisions: Homesick students who experience significant changes in sleeping behavior, eating habits or physical appearance may need counseling. DeSalvo said, it could "If symptoms last for longer than two weeks, it could still be homesickness, but might need attention." DeSalvo said. Desalvo said women are both susceptible to homesickness, Desalvo said, but women are more likely to talk about it. This can be a healthy outlet. Men are more likely to deny their feelings. likely to deny their feelings. DeSalvo said homesick students shouldn't be afraid to let someone know they are having a rough time. Denying feelings of homesickness could cause other problems, such as depression and failed classes. Obvious, such as you have a snowball effect," he said. "If you start sleeping more because you are homesick, you miss class; you start to struggle academically." If you miss classes, you start to go to a large Homesickness might not set in right away. DeSalvo said. For some, it starts a month into the semester said. For some, it harms them. "Folks that arrive with some doubts about leaving home, might be successful in hiding doubts but they will start to surface a month down the road," DeSalvo said. start to surface a month down the road. DeSalvo said that the transition from home to college didn't happen overnight. "There is no time limit on homesickness, for some students," DeSalvo said "It could last a couple of weeks, a semester, even a year." Fortunately, there are many ways to treat homeschickness. DeSalvo suggested that homeschick students try new activities that put them with with people who are dealing with the same issues. "By pursuing new avenues they will know that they have something in common with other folks," DeSalvo said. DeSalvo also suggested that homesick students think of the separation as a time to grow, and as an opportunity to try new things. nity to try new things. "So much is learned with every transition." he said. "Homesickness can be useful, because it can teach us how to cope with changes in the future." Disorganization is one reason why freshmen tend to become houseick, DeSalvo said. Freshmen should try to follow a schedule for eating and sleeping. Homesick students could plan a trip home, but not too soon and not too often, DeSalvo said. New students should take time to allow themselves to adjust to the new surroundings. "The biggest thing to remember is that homesickness is normal. Making a transition at any age is hard, not just adolescence." DeSalvo said.

Candy Ruff Special to the Kansan Karen Boyd is making her way through academic challenges at the University of Kansas. A nontraditional student working toward a bachelor of arts degree in sociology, Boyd, Kansas City, Kan., senior, credit an understanding counselor and a student organization with helping her reach her goals. Boyd was in her mid-30s when she arrived at the University with an associate's degree from Kansas City Kansas Community College. She saw only 18 and 19 year olds on campus, and she felt left out. Then she discovered the Student Development Center and happened into Laura Morgan's office. "That visit turned my situation around," she said. The Organization of Adult Knowledge Seekers is for married students, veterans, students with children, students older than 24, part-time students, self-supporting students and other nontraditional students. "Something as simple as providing lockers for us is an issue I have been fighting for. We also wanted a stronger voice on the Student Senate, and we now have four nontraditional students served there," she said. Pushing for better access to childcare touches many of the students with children. The Hilltop Child Development Center, Boyd pointed out, has a waiting list, forcing stu dents to look off-campus for childcare providers. She would like Watkins Memorial Health Center to hire a pediatrician to care for students' children, she said. "It's those type of concerns we are able to bring to the attention of the Student Senate," she said. Being able to stand up and speak out are characteristics new to Boyd. In high school, she did not easily express herself. Her decision to drop out at age 17, she said, was the result of anxiety and self-doubt. "I called her every day for a month, and finally, she told me to come in for an interview. Pushing myself like that was not like me, but I wanted that good job." Boyd said. After an unsuccessful stint at telemarketing, Boyd sought employment at a financial management company in Kansas City, Kan. She telephoned the office manager. The opportunity to improve her secretarial skills increased her confidence, and within seven months, she finished her GED. Her timing in the early 1980s for getting college financial assistance was fortunate, she said. At that time, students under 21 could receive dependent benefits if one of their parents was eligible for Social Security disability. With a Pell Grant and Social Security, she continued her studies, but a change in the Social Security eligibility requirements ended her dependent benefits in 1985. Boyd left school. An opportunity to join a faith-based organization and move to Rhode Island gave her a ticket out of Kansas, which she said she needed just then. Besides her religious obligations, Boyd landed another civil service position at the naval base in Newport, R.I. For a single woman, she said, there could not have been a better place. "My brother encouraged me to take the civil service exam, and I did well. I was thrilled to get a job at Fort Leavenworth. I worked almost three years," she said. "Every year there were 2,400 new officers attending the warfare training school. My job was working for the commander of the school. I loved it and planned to stay there forever," she explained. Her mother's ill health, however, drew her back to Kansas City. Her mother's knee surgery brought Boyd home for six months in 1990. She then returned to Rhode Island. In 1996 her mother contracted leukemia. "I'm the youngest in the family and the one who could more easily relocate. It broke my heart to leave Rhode Island, but my mother needed me. I moved home in March of 1996," she said. Her mother became blind later that year and required home health care around the clock. Cleaning houses was the most flexible job Boyd could find. With the help of Catholic Social Services and in-home nursing assistance, she was able to keep her mother at home until her death in September 1998. She graduated in May 1988 with an associate's degree from Kansas City Kansas Community College. As she faced her mother's death, Boyd took stock of her own life. Her decision to return to Kansas coincided with her commitment to finish school. By the beginning of 1999, Boyd knew she wanted to become a sociology professor. "I took a full schedule at KU in the fall of 1988 and was driving back and forth between KU and Kansas City. I was just overwhelmed that first semester after my mother's death. That is why I was so grateful to find the services for us nontraditional students." Boyd said. "In sociology class I began to face my childhood prejudices. I saw myself change in that class and for the better. You could say I now have a sociology brain," Boyd said. She put that sociology brain to work to became a McNair Scholar. After she receives a bachelor of arts degree in May 2011, Boyd will seek masters and doctorate degrees. Her sights are firmly set on joining a university staff as a professor of sociology. Coach's departure would have been a fashion loss Bv Jennv Oakson Kansan guest columnist When I heard the news on June 30, I shed a tear. Sure, I was hung over, but I cried out of sadness, not pain. Roy Williams was being lured away from Kansas — how could we bear to lose such a fashionable coach? Don't get me wrong. I follow basketball. But, even more so, I follow a man in a well-nut-together suit. I remember a couple of years ago when I spotted Roy on TV at one of the annual preseason Hawaii tournaments. His bronzeed face brought out the white highlights in his Ken Doll hair. His light-colored suit made the opposing team's coach look like a mobster. And he was committing an act more daring than starting T.J. Whatley — he was wearing sandals with a tie. But he could work it. I'm not alone in noticing Coach Williams' (or his wife's) impeccable taste. In Spike Lee's He Got Game, Roy was debonair as he played a less shiny version of himself. Spike knows what's up. Roy's photogenic. Why else would my mom tape the games? It's all about freeze-frame. This past season, Roy showed off his knack for accessoring. His oh-so-Ben-Franklin eyeglasses were not only stylish, but also flattering to his oval face shape. Yes, some ties were hideous, but the man is a risk taker. Anyone can look good in paisley, but how many men can wear a multi-colored, spectrum-themed prop from A Clockwork Orange piece of neck candy? I wouldn't have been so devastated if I had thought potential new coaches could be as suave — oh yeah, and as good at coaching as Roy. But just look at who the candidates were: - That big guy from Utah who always wears sweaters — All I have to say is Mr. Belvedere, Boo-hiss. - Rick Pitto— Make the pass or you sleep with the fishes. This man can wear a suit and gets extra points for cuff links, but is that a pinky ring I see? - Bob Hill — Boring. If this coach were a dish he'd be boiled carrots. I see no flair and lots of earth tones. - Matt Doherty — Hmmm. He reminds me of Sam Malone back in the Shelley Long days of *Cheers*. As assistant coach under Roy for so long, he has definitely learned from the master, but I was worried he would have ventured into pastels. We would have all missed you, Roy. But I would have especially missed your style, baby. Center helps nontrads get settled in By L. Candy Ruff Special to the Kansan Embrace the new technology. Find time to study. Family is important. Don't be afraid to ask for help. These are the messages Mary Ann Rasnak delivers to the 5,000 nontraditional students attending the University of Kansas each semester. Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said nontraditional students should consider the center their anchor. "It's all about connecting," Rasnak said. "We are here for them from the orientation." The orientation at the end of June focused on challenges nontraditional students face when returning to school. students are classified as nontraditional if they are parents, married, military veterans or are three or four years older than most of their classmates. Students who commute more than 10 miles to campus also are considered nontraditional. "It's all about connecting. We are here for them from the orientation." Mary Ann Rasnak Student Development Center Director The center offers assistance to all students. It provides academic advising and support as well as help with financial aid, scholarships and grants. Rasnak said the center also offered help with concerns such as commuting, housing, health and medical services, disabilities and employment and career planning. "Students who are parents find a special welcome because returning to school when you have a child is really a difficult challenge." Rasnak said. KU Hilltop Child Development Center takes children aged 2 to kindergarten and offers an after-school program. Rasnak said the Dependent Care Referral Services at Room 103 Carruth-O'Leary Hall was the place to begin a childcare plan. In addition, her office maintains an active list of childcare providers in Lawrence and Douglas County. Student Financial Aid offers childcare grants during the first two weeks of September at the Office of Student Financial Aid. Lack of funds for childcare should never keep a parent from attending college, Rasnak said. Avoiding the expanding waistlines that often accompany broadening knowledge at college By Stephanie Tweito Special to the Kansan The "Freshman 15" is the dreaded weight gain common among new college students. "Freshman are so excited to be here," said Ann Chapman, clinical dietitian at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "They're meeting new people. It's a new food setting. They are very vulnerable to not using good judgment about their eating or being physically active." Causes of freshman weight gain include insufficient exercise, not enough fruit and vegetables, and increased consumption of fat and alcohol. Exercise can help. Chapman said students should get regular aerobic exercise 30 minutes a day four or five days a week. "And that does not include the walking they do to and from class," she said. "You would think all of these hills on campus would be enough activity, but that's not really aerobic," she said. Many students neglect fruits and vegetables, Chapman said. They should eat three to five servings of vegetables and two to four servings of fruit a day. Fruits and vegetables are 80 to 90 percent water and displace higher-calorie food. Chapman recommended keeping rut and vegetables on hand for snacks and to take the edge off before a big meal. Many freshmen eat out frequently, often on high-fat fast food, Chapman said. Late night eating tends to be the fourth meal of the day. "You're adding another meal which for most of us is going to be five, six, 700 calories above our daily need for fuel," Chapman said. "An extra 500 calories a day would be a pound in a week and 3500 calories are in a pound. So you can get there fast." Chapman said skipping meals led to overeating at the next meal. It is important to set a schedule of three meals a day plus a snack or two in between. Alcohol is high in calories and many student drink more alcohol than they did in high school. Chapman said. She advised students not to drink on an empty stomach. "Drinking on an empty stomach not only sets you up to get drunk, but to then go out at one o'clock in the morning and eat a huge meal That is a fourth meal of your day," she said. She also suggested drinking lower calorie light beer or wine spritzers and ordering mixed drinks with diet pop. Following each alcoholic drink with a glass of water or a caffeine-free soda also helps students avoid getting drunk and dehydrated. Many students blame residence hall food for added weight, but Mindy Pendreigh, Board Administrator for Dining Services said low-fat and low-calorie meals were offered at the halls along with higher-calorie food. "The healthy choices are there but students have to make the choices," she said. "We offer all varieties because some people need a higher calorie base." Residence hall menus include vegan and vegetarian dishes, soymlk, and steamed vegetables without added butter or margarine Chapman said snacking between meals was healthy but that students should avoid the vending machine and eat healthy snacks, such as hot cocoa, granola bars, whole grain crackers, string cheese, oatmeal, cereal, soup and dried fruit. "Stock up on healthier, easy-to-eat-on-the-run snacks that can be kept in their dorm room so that at 10 o'clock at night they don't go and get a candy bar or they're less likely to order a pizza," Chapman said.

Monday, August 21, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section C · Page 13 Once upon a Time KU artist explores dark side of fairy tales 119th century French artist Gustave Dore illustrated the dark side of Tom Thumb. Contributed art. By Jim O'Malley writer@kansan.com Special to the Kansan And the wicked queen was forced to put on iron shoes that were heated red hot and made to dance until she died. "Fairy tales are very dark and sinister." "said painting major Tabitha Morris, Fayetteville, Ark., sophomore. "I really want to explore that side of them." Morris won an undergraduate research award from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to pay for her exploration of the dark side of fairy tales through a series of paintings. She was one of 49 University undergraduates to receive research awards this summer. M. F. H. M. Morris said that people were most familiar with the Disney movie versions of fairy tales, but that the Grimm Brothers' fairy tales, for example, were pretty nasty. Some fairy tales were bawdy and sexually gross, and she considered that as a starting point for her paintings. But because she had worked with sexual imagery in other paintings, she wanted to do something different. Morris said she had started drawing but had not begun painting for the project yet. "I'm still trying to sort out the kind of images I want to present," she said. The wolf threatens Little Red Riding Hood's mother in this illustration by Gustave Doré. Contributed art. Morris said she was looking at the sins illustrated by some of the better-known fairy tales. In Snow White, the wicked queen's sin is vanity, in Cinderella, the step-sisters' sin is envy, and in Hansel and Gretel, the witch's sin is gluttony. Morris said she found it intriguing that the heroes and heroines of the tales committed the same sin as the villains. Dennis Quinn, professor of English, has taught courses in children's literature. The dark side of fairy tales is a popular modern interpretation, he said. There's a dark side to fairy tales because there's a dark side of life. The dark side could be overemphasized, he said. Fairy tales generally have happy endings and a strong sense of justice. But the Disney movie versions were too cute. Quinn said. "What they have done to the classic stories is awful," Quinn said. "It's a great misfortune in American movies. Cuteness is the disease of much children's literature." Morris said she had done a lot of research for the project, reading scholarly books on fairy tales, such as psychologist Bruno Bettelheim's. The Uses of Enchantment. "Just as you wouldn't write a research paper without research, you wouldn't want to paint a painting without research," she said. "I try to read a lot of reminist literature and tie that into fairy tales, which portray the archetypal female roles." Tanya Hartman, assistant professor of art, said research was one of Morris' strengths. "Because she reads a lot, she has a lot she wants to say." Hartman said. Morris has talent, Hartman said. She has a beautiful sense of color and draws really well. But people don't realize how important research is to art. "Everyone thinks you just pull the art out of thin air," she said. Hard work is also important in art, Hartman said. Between moments of inspiration are long periods of hard work. Morris said she had been drawing all her life but had not painted until she got to the University. Then she took Hartman's painting class. "After the first semester," she said, "I really loved it. I really think I want to make this my life's passion. Being able to think about things, to express things, it's priceless to me." LICK IT UP!

Candy Ruff Special to the Kansan Karen Boyd is making her way through academic challenges at the University of Kansas. A nontraditional student working toward a bachelor of arts degree in sociology, Boyd, Kansas City, Kan., senior, credits an understanding counselor and a student organization with helping her reach her goals. Boyd was in her mid-30s when she arrived at the University with an associate's degree from Kansas City Kansas Community College. She saw only 18 and 19 year olds on campus, and she felt left out. Then she discovered the Student Development Center and happened into Laura Morgan's office. "That visit turned my situation around," she said. The Organization of Adult Knowledge Seekers is for married students, veterans, students with children, students older than 24, part-time students, self-supporting students and other nontraditional students. "Something as simple as providing lockers for us is an issue I have been fighting for. We also wanted a stronger voice on the Student Senate, and we now have four nontraditional students served there," she said. Pushing for better access to childcare touches many of the students with children. The Hilltop Child Development Center, Boyd pointed out, has a waiting list, forcing stu dents to look off-campus for childcare providers. She would like Watkins Memorial Health Center to hire a pediatrician to care for students' children, she said. "It's those type of concerns we are able to bring to the attention of the Student Senate," she said. Being able to stand up and speak out are characteristics new to Boyd. In high school, she did not easily express herself. Her decision to drop out at age 17, she said, was the result of anxiety and self-doubt. After an unsuccessful stint at telemarketing, Boyd sought employment at a financial management company in Kansas City, Kan. She telephoned the office manager. "I called her every day for a month, and finally, she told me to come in for an interview. Pushing myself like that was not like me, but I wanted that good job," Boyd said. The opportunity to improve her secretarial skills increased her confidence, and within seven months, she finished her GED. Her timing in the early 1980s for getting college financial assistance was fortunate, she said. At that time, students under 21 could receive dependent benefits if one of their parents was eligible for Social Security disability. With a Pell Grant and Social Security, she continued her studies, but a change in the Social Security ell "My brother encouraged me to take the civil service exam, and I did well. I was thrilled to get a job at Fort Leavenworth. I worked almost three years," she said. gibility requirements ended her dependent benefits in 1985. Boyd left school. An opportunity to join a faith-based organization and move to Rhode Island gave her a ticket out of Kansas, which she said she needed just then. Besides her religious obligations, Boyd landed another civil service position at the naval base in Newport, R.I. For a single woman, she said, there could not have been a better place. "Every year there were 2,400 new officers attending the warfare training school. My job was working for the commander of the school. I loved it and planned to stay there forever," she explained. Her mother's ill health, however, drew her back to Kansas City. Her mother's knee surgery brought Boyd home for six months in 1990. She then returned to Rhode Island. In 1996 her mother contracted leukemia. "I'm the youngest in the family and the one who could more easily relocate. It broke my heart to leave Rhode Island, but my mother needed me. I moved home in March of 1996," she said. Her mother became blind later that year and required home health care around the clock. Cleaning houses was the most flexible job Boyd could find. She graduated in May 1998 with an associate's degree from Kansas City Kansas Community College. With the help of Catholic Social Services and in-home nursing assistance, she was able to keep her mother at home until her death in September 1998. As she faced her mother's death, Boyd took stock of her own life. Her decision to return to Kansas coincided with her commitment to finish school. "I took a full schedule at KU in the fall of 1998 and was driving back and forth between KU and Kansas City. I was just overwhelmed that first semester after my mother's death. That is why I was so grateful to find the services for us nontraditional students," Bovd said. By the beginning of 1999, Boyd knew she wanted to become a sociology professor. "In sociology class I began to face my childhood prejudices. I saw myself change in that class and for the better. You could say I now have a sociology brain." Boyd said. She put that sociology brain to work to become a McNair Scholar. After she receives a bachelor of arts degree in May 2001, Boyd will seek masters and doctorate degrees. Her sights are firmly set on joining a university staff as a professor of sociology. Coach's departure would have been a fashion loss By Jenny Oakson Kansan guest columnist When I heard the news on June 30, I shed a tear. Sure, I was hung over, but I cried out of sadness, not pain. Roy Williams was being lured away from Kansas — how could we bear to lose such a fashionable coach? Don't get me wrong. I follow basketball. But, even more so, I follow a man in a well-put-together suit. I remember a couple of years ago when I spotted Roy on TV at one of the annual preseason Hawaiian tournaments. His bronzed face brought out the white highlights in his Ken Doll hair. His light-colored suit made the opposing team's coach look like a mobster. And he was committing an act more daring than starting T.J. Whatley — he was wearing sandals with a tie. But he could work it. I'm not alone in noticing Coach Williams' (or his wife's) impeccable taste. In Spike Lee's He Got Game, Roy was debonair as he played a less shiny version of himself. Spike knows what's up. Roy's photogenic. Why else would my mom tape the games? It's all about freeze-frame. This past season. Roy showed off his knack for accessorizing. His oh-so-Ben-Franklin eyeglasses were not only stylish, but also flattering to his owal face shape. Yes, some ties were hideous, but the man is a risk taker. Anyone can look good in paisley, but how many men can wear a multicolored, spectrum-themed prop from A Clockwork Orange piece of neck candy? I wouldn't have been so devastated if I had thought potential new coaches could be as suave — oh yeah, and as good at coaching as Roy. But just look at who the candidates were: - That big guy from Utah who always wears sweaters — All I have to say is Mr. Belvedere. Boo-hiss. - Rick Pitno — Make the pass or you sleep with the fahes. This man can wear a suit and gets extra points for cuff links, but is that a pinky ring I see? - Bob Hill — Boring. If this coach were a dish he'd be boiled carrots. I see no flair and lots of earth tones. - Matt Doherty — Hmmm. He reminds me of Sam Malone back in the Shelley Long days of Cheers. As assistant coach under Roy for so long, he has definitely learned from the master, but I was worried he would have ventured into pastels. We would have all missed you, Roy. But I would have especially missed your style, baby. Center helps nontrads get settled in By L. Candy Ruff Special to the Kansan Embrace the new technology. Find time to study. Family is important. Don't be afraid to ask for help. These are the messages Mary Ann Rasnak delivers to the 5,000 nontraditional students attending the University of Kansas each semester. Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said nontraditional students should consider the center their anchor. "It's all about connecting," Rasnak said. "We are here for them from the orientation." The orientation at the end of June focused on challenges nontraditional students face when returning to school. Students are classified as nontraditional if they are parents, married, military veterans or are three or four years older than most of their classmates. Students who commute more than 10 miles to campus also are considered nontraditional. "It's all about connecting. We are here for them from the orientation." Mary Ann Rasnak Student Development Center Director The center offers assistance to all students. It provides academic advising and support as well as help with financial aid, scholarships and grants. Rasnak said the center also offered help with concerns such as commuting, housing, health and medical services, disabilities and employment and career planning.

Warren Corman, University architect, said construction was scheduled to start by next fall and be completed by Fall 2002. "It all depends on how fast the architects can work," Corman said. "We will have the funding by September. We hope to be bidding on construction a year from now." Student Senate passed a referendum last fall for a $49 increase in student fees to fund the project. Kevin Yoder, former student body president and chairman of the senate's recreation task force, said next year the fee would actually only be $15. "We are implementing a stairstep approach to the fees because we didn't want people to be paying for the center who couldn't use it for very long," Yoder said. The state legislature approved the school's proposal to build a $17 million free-standing fitness and recreation center for students. Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said the five firms interviewed were Gould, Evans and Associates, Lawrence; Slemmons Associates Architects, Topeka; Treanor Architects PA, Lawrence; Glenn, Livingood, Penzler and Miller PA, Lawrence; and Ken Ebert Design Group, Manhattan. Corman said the building would probably take eight to 10 months to design. "We don't tell the architects what the building should look like," Corman said. "We would like it to be consistent with the other buildings around campus." The Board of Regents approved the location between Watkins Health Center and 18th Street for the facility. The new center will be situated diagonally from Robinson Gymnasium. "It will be a free-standing building south of Watkins, some place in the big field," Corman said. "It was the most appealing site probably because there was already existing parking and sewer lines. It is a flat site that will be easy to build on." The building will have four multi-purpose gymnasium courts, two racquetball courts, a cardiovascular fitness and weight training center, and an aerobics and dance studio. There will also be a suspended walking and running track, a rock climbing wall, a martial arts studio, an activities lounge, locker rooms and a student service center. Student Senate proposed the center with the intention that it be used in addition to the existing equipment, gymnastiums and racquetball courts in Robinson Gymnastium, Yoder said. "A part of the plan was to use Robinson as well as the new equipment," Yoder said. "The new center will be a vast improvement of what we have had in the past." When it's completed, the build- Chappell said that next semester the weight room in Robinson would be open from 6 to 7:30 a.m. every morning and 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights; and 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It will also be open during the day on Saturdays and Sundays. "The times are only for the weight room. Other areas of the center will be open at different times depending on the classes," Chappell said. "In October, the center will start extended hours and stay open until midnight Sunday through Thursday." Club sports avenue for activity Recreation services offer competitive edge, outlet for former, new athletes By Gina Kohake Special to the Kansan Twenty-five sports clubs are available to KU students during the school year. Some of the teams, like water skiing and sailing, continue during the summer. Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said that club sports were a great way for students to stay active and get involved. "Club teams offer another realm for students," she said. "It is an outlet for some high school varsity athletes instead of college sports. Some students do it just to keep in shape. They are all at a level that a novice can do while at the same time competing with other schools." The levels of competition vary from team to team, Chappell said. "The teams compete mostly with Big 12 schools or anyone else in the region," she said. "Some teams travel more like crew which goes to Princeton, or the K-Alkido team that went to California." Chappell said many of the sport clubs allow students the opportunity to learn a new sport. "Club sports open different avenues that some students have never experienced, such as lacrosse which is a sport played more in the north, like in Michigan," Chappell said. SPORTS CLUBS If you have any questions call Recreation Rock Climbing Services at 864-3546 or stop by Roller Hockey 208 Robinson Rugby-Men and Women Badminton Sailing Crew Scuba Hawks Cycling Soccer-Men and Women Fencing Tae Kwan Do Judo Ultimate Frisbee-Men and Women Karate Volleyball-Men and Women Ki-Aikido Water Polo Kuk Sool Won Water Ski Lacrosse-Women Wrestling Racquetball Chappell said the University had a diverse selection of teams. There are seven different martial arts clubs: Karate, Ki-Aikido, Kuk Sool Wan, Tae Kwan Do, Kung Fu, Wu Shot Tai Chi and Judo. "Some are for self-discipline or some are for combat," Chappell said. "They are a little bit of each other but they all have their own focus." Another option for students to explore is the sailing club, said Liz Riggs, past commodore. "The club is open to every University student," Riggs said. "Its mission is to provide a means for novice sailors to learn and experienced sailors to be continually challenged." Riggs said the team could have a competitive edge if students wanted the challenge of racing against other sailors. We recently have re-energized our racing team and now can offer an experience in nationally competitive collegiate sailing." Riggs said. "On a competitive level, sailing is both athleticly and mentally challenging." For those who aim for higher altitudes, rock-climbing is available. With practice on the 24-foot rock-climbing wall in Robinson Gymnasium, students can be ready for climbing excursions to Arkansas or Texas. "I think it's a good idea for students to get involved in any sort of activity that makes the University smaller and helps them to meet and get to know people." Riggs said. Students can sign up for a club team at 8 p.m. tomorrow during the Beach and Boulevard night of Hawk Week at Wescoe Beach. Chappell said. "There will be 300 groups there that students can talk with," she said. "If they don't make it, a student can also come to the office in 208 Robinson and we will give them a person to contact."

Section C · Page 16 The University Daily Kansan Monday, August 21, 2000 University's unique niches Events, people differ at the ten scholarship halls By Keele Thurston and Brandy Straw. Special to the Kansan Scholarship halls at the University of Kansas are almost as unique as the Jayhawk. Only a few public universities have them. The scholarship hall system at the University began in 1926 when Watkins Scholarship Hall opened its doors to women who wanted a higher education, but needed financial help. Now there are 10 scholarship halls, five for women and five for men. Academic achievement is also important. Residents have to take at least 28 credit hours during the academic year and maintain a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.50. Eligibility for scholarship halls is still based largely on financial need. They are about $1,000 cheaper per year than residence halls. The scholarship halls promote community living. Each resident spends four to six hours a week helping with cooking and cleaning. Menus can be interesting when international students serve on the food board, said Josh Boots, Plano, Texas, junior and All Scholarship Hall President. The scholarship halls provide a good environment for studying and relaxing, Boots said. Each hall has a president and a committee that organizes activities. The hall presidents and two other representatives from each hall make up the All Scholarship Hall Council, which helps coordinate activities for the halls. Each hall has an advisory board that punishes residents who have not worked their cleaning or cooking shifts or have missed hall meetings. They hand out demerits, called J-Boards, and once a resident has accumulated five, he or she could be asked to leave, but Boots said it rarely has happened. The halls have annual awards banquets and movie nights, when residents can meet with people from other halls. All the halls have laundry facilities, a TV and stereo, a piano and Ethernet connections. The floor plans vary, but all halles include sleeping, studying and dins ing areas. Boots said the chemistry of the halls changed from year to year. "Personalities develop each year depending on the make up of the hall," said Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director of housing. Watkins and Miller Watkins and Miller halls have study areas shared by two to four residents and a communal sleeping area. Each student is assigned to one of seven kitchens in each hall, where they determine the grocery bill. Watkins Hall has an annual spring tea, a winter informal and a "Heaven & Hell" party. Almee Cox, Rose Hill senior, said Miller residents have an annual Elizabeth Miller Watkins Appreciation Night and a candle-lighting ceremony, Elizabeth Miller Watkins donated the money that paid for construction of Miller and Watkins halls and that continues to pay for their unkeen. Cox said she chose Miller because of its location on the Hill and set-up. The ability to prepare meals in her own kitchen appealed to her. "You can't beat having to roll out of bed and down the stairs of the hall to get to class all the while watching people struggle up the hill from your windows." Cox said. She said one drawback to living at Miller was that only the sleeping porches and two common rooms had air conditioning. "The study rooms and kitchens are sweltering." Cox said. Douthart and Sellards Douthart Scholarship Hall and Sellars Scholarship Hall are two women's halls, that are divided into suites with two bedrooms and one study room shared by four residents. Each hall has one large kitchen and dining area. Douthart has a winter formal in the fall and Sellards has an annual international dinner, a tropical party and an 80's party. "There is so much of a community, we almost become like sisters," said Katie Bartkowski, Basehor senior, who lives in Douthki. Battenfeld Scholarship Hall opened in 1940 and was the first men's scholarship hall. The hall has two TV rooms and two, three, and four-man suites that have a study room connecting each room. Each year the hall has a casino party. Battenfeld, Pearson and Stephenson Jason Murnane, Spring 2000 KU graduate, lived next to Pearson in Stephenson Scholarship Hall. He said the men of Pearson Hall had the tradition of wishing their neighbors a "Happy Loopy Day" on Thursday nights. When a Pearson resident celebrates his birthday, he usually is thrown into the Chancellor's fountain. Jake Davis, Bonner Springs senior, was able to avoid the trip on his birthday, but did not escape in the end. "I was up there one day and they caught me." Davis said. He said the best part about living in the scholarship halls was that they were close to three bars, The Hawk, Bull Winkles and The Wheel. Pearson and Stephenson have rooms shared by two people. Stephenson men have a reputation for balancing their social activities with their studies. Many residents can be found camping out for seats at KU basketball games, and they are known for the pranks they play. Each semester they adopt a highway to keep clean, Murnane said. Grace Pearson The living arrangements at Grace Pearson Hall are the same as Sellards and Douthart, with suites that have two bedrooms and a living area. It has a traditional karaoke night once a year. "Grace Pearson was a good place to begin my large college experience. It provided more of a family atmosphere and also created an environment that enabled me to remain focused academically," said Jared Comfort, Minneapolis, Kan., graduate student. KK Amini Scholarship Hall, which opened in 1992, is the newest men's scholarship hall. Residents have a Cinco de Mayo party each year. The hall has fourperson suites with have adjoining baths and cable TV outlets. KK Amini "I loved the atmosphere," said Boots, who's an Amini resident. "It is one of the main reasons I stayed at KU. My favorite experience was the second semester my freshman year, when I helped start a program to recognize residents for their work once a month called Schol Hall Member of the Month." Edited by Chris Fickett The newest of scholarship halls is Margaret Amiini, which opens this fall. Like KK Amiini, it features four-person suites with adjoining bathrooms and cable in each room. Margaret Amini THE JOURNAL OF THAILAND'S LITERATURE James Gunn, professor emeritus of English and science fiction author, discusses science fiction novels with students during class. Students in the summer course were expected to read 25 novels and write a paper or a short story. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN Intensive science-fiction class tries to unravel genre's history By Karen Lucas writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Twenty-five novels form the centerpiece of a two-week course on science fiction this summer. "My interest is in providing a background of a genre so that people can read and understand it better when they're finished," said Gunn, who has offered the course since 1974. "In effect, the whole course is an exercise in definition because science fiction is very difficult to define and the best way to do it is to show how it has developed over the centuries." The class began its study of the genre by examining a work by H.G. Wells, whom Gunn described as the founder of modern science fiction. "Without him, science fiction wouldn't be what it is today," Gunn said. "At the heart of science fiction is H.G. Wells' focus on ideas like the time machine and evolution." Another writer whose books were on the course syllabus was Hal Clement, who participated in this summer's John W. Campbell conference on science fiction, which students were expected to attend. The class discussed Clement's novel, Mission of Gravity, which Gunn said depicted a world that was alien to Earth. The course also focused on one of Gunn's works The Listeners, published in 1972. Gunn said he wanted to include his novel in the course because it would offer students a different experience. "In your class work, you often don't get a chance to ask the author why they did that or what it meant or why they wrote that way." he said. Christopher Dick, Hillsboro graduate student and instructor of English at Tabor College in Hillsboro, said that the opportunity to hear his professor talk about The Listeners. was one of the attractions of the course. Another course requirement was the submission of either a paper or a short story. "I think people ought to have the opportunity to be creative," Gunn said. "Most science-fiction readers want to write science fiction. That's one thing about science fiction, it tends to grab readers because it's a literature of ideas and people generally aren't intimidated by it. They want to write it."

The pain shoots out from her lower abdomen — and her pocketbook. Her body has hurt for several months now; she doesn't know why and neither do her doctors. At first, doctors thought the a 26-year-old Roeland Park senior had ovarian cysts. They scheduled surgery to remove them. Doctors opened her up and realized that wasn't the problem. As her pain continues, the bills add up. Surgery. Blood work. X-rays. Emergency room visits. Exams. Painkillers. "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Demerol," she said. But there's a pain Demerol can't help. Oliver doesn't have insurance. She estimates that so far, she owes $6,000 to Lawrence Memorial Hospital. While the severity of her illness may be unusual, the insurance predicament isn't. The American College Health Association estimates that 11 percent of undergraduate college students have no health insurance, and the remaining 89 percent may have less coverage or more restricted coverage than they realize. In addition, 36 percent of college students are covered under their parents' policies, the Association reports. Most of that coverage will end when the student reaches a certain age, usually 24. In Oliver's case, she worked full-time last year and had benefits. When she came back to school to get a second degree, she gave them up. Now she can't afford to buy insurance herself. "And with what's going on now," she said, "premiums would be a nightmare." So she'll just have to pay her bills herself. Specific insurance statistics are not documented for University of Kansas students. But 1,346 undergraduate students are older than 25. Add graduate and law students and that number exceeds 5,000. Not every one of them is uninsured, but the number could approach 1,000 uninsured students. Students such as Oliver are in the dangerous limbo between their 24th birthday and full-time employment. If they get sick, there are only two choices: pay out of pocket or go it alone. It's a lose-lose situation. Some students decide to neglect emergency treatment. Kris Graves, Lawrence graduate student, got food poisoning last month. He refused to go to the emergency room. He couldn't afford it. "I was sick for four days," he said. "It was horrible. I was throwing up every four hours. My girlfriend called Poison Control and helped me out, but I'm sure the ER would have been better." Graves, who was dropped from his parents' insurance on his 24th birthday, thought the emergency room visit would have cost $400 — which is $400 the part-time hotel bellman didn't have. In fact, an average emergency room bill from Lawrence Memorial exceeds Grave's prediction. About $300 is charged for the doctor alone, $100 for the facility and maybe $75 for medicine. A representative in the hospital accounting office said payment plans could be arranged. Patients can divide their total bills into six monthly payments, she said. For the bill above, that would be almost $80 each month. Graham Bailey, public relations director for Blue Cross-Blue Shield in Topeka, said his company usually dropped coverage when students turned 24 or got married. "The idea is that, when you become an adult, you get dropped off your dad's car insurance, your parents' health insurance," he said. "It is a practice that goes on in the industry, but I can see how it could cause some problems." Most colleges offer some inexpensive health insurance plan, and premiums are lower for healthy young adults, Bailey said. Bailey said he understood the dilemma but saw other problems for 20-somethings. insurance." he said. "It's probably no more problematic than someone who gets out and makes $22,000 and their employer doesn't offer health The University of Kansas offers its own plan. For students younger than 25, the yearly rate is $480, which averages out to $40 each month. Students age 25 and older pay $856, or $72 each month. The plan is available through G-M Underwriters. Pre-existing conditions, like Oliver's, require a 12-month waiting period before insurance will pay for any treatment. "The plan wouldn't do me any good at all," she said. "That's 50 bucks a month I just don't have. Especially if it's not helping me." After some significant lobby efforts, the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition secured a health plan for University teaching assistants for the 1999-2000 academic year. The policy is underwritten by Gerber Life Insurance Policy. To be eligible, students must be in a half-time graduate teaching or graduate research position. Because teaching assistants are employees, the University pays part of the monthly insurance fee. A teaching assistant 25 or younger will pay $19.40 each month for the comprehensive plan and $7.25 each month for the basic plan. The plan would cost a GTA between 26 and 30 years old $27.30 for the comprehensive plan and $10.17 each month for the basic. Both plans waive deductible fees if the student is treated at Watkins Memorial Health Center. But Bailey acknowledged that with student loans and low income, even plans like the University's can be too pricey. Oliver isn't a graduate student, and Graves doesn't work as a teaching or research assistant, so neither qualifies for the lower rates. meet those responsibilities." "There's a window in your 20s, I remember being there, where you're losing your youth." Bailey said. "With that comes a whole new world and some whole new responsibilities. Sometimes you're not ready to univer's not. Her livelihood comes from wages earned at a part-time job at the School of Social Welfare and one night each week at The Jazzhaus, 926-1/2 Massachusetts St. This semester, the illness and the stress it brings with it also has cost her a 4.0 grade-point average. She's looking at getting the first two B's of her college career. She says the pain, a dull pain radiating from her lower abdomen, goes on all the time. On a scale of one to 10, with one being a papercut and 10 being sawed in half, she said it averaged a seven. She's trying hard now to wean herself off medication. "No one can know what it's like to live with chronic pain until they do it," she said. "It affects your entire being. You don't like to do any thing. Your relationships suffer. It just takes over your life." They haven't confirmed it yet, but doctors think Oliver has endometriosis, a disease occurring where the uterus lining grows outside the uterus. The growth can suffocate the organs around the uterus, like the varies or fallopian tubes. She might not be able to have children. and also point get- "I The usual treatment for endometriosis is a combination of medication and surgery. In severe cases, doctors may perform a "radical" surgery — removal of the uterus and both ovaries. Oliver tries not to think about the worst-case scenarios. She has bills to pay — about $8,000 of them, and most are due on July 1 e the he Oliver said her doctor's office has threatened to turn her into a collection agency if she doesn't make that deadline. thought if you made a conscientious effort to pay and showed them what you made, they wouldn't turn you in. But they will." she said. She tried to get help through Social Rehabilitation Services. SRS could have helped her if she was poor or pregnant, she said, but for a middle-class college student, there is no help. "There should be help out there for people who are trying to better themselves, trying to do something with their lives." she said. "I'm being punished for not being pregnant." The best solution, she said, would be for insurance companies to extend coverage for students until they graduate. Bailey doesn't think that will happen, though. "The cutoff used to be younger than 24," he said. "There's just a threshold age. There always has been. There probably always will be." GOT BOOKS?

Godinez has retinitis pigmentosa, a type of tunnel vision that affects her peripheral vision. She can see only within a rounded oval. At the edges of that oval, she sees a constant strobe of flashing points of light. To use the Internet, Godinez must use a program called Zoomtext that magnifies the letters on her screen up to 16 times their normal size. Even with this program, surfing the Web can be incredibly difficult. "Colors are a challenge," Godinez said. "It is easier to read with contrasting colors. Light green letters on a white background slow me down because it is difficult to read. Black on white or white on black would be better. Graphics can also be very confusing." People who have problems seeing or hearing,or have limited use of their arms and hands,have trouble getting on the information superhighway. Robert Tabor, a Lawrence claims attorney, is blind. He uses a text-to-speech browser to navigate the Internet. Web designers say too many people see the Web as a visual medium instead of an information medium. The same experts say that information retrieval is the main function of the Internet and that if more designers saw it that way, then everyone would be better off. "But in reality," she said, "that philosophy makes surfing more time-consuming and harder to navigate for everyone, not just disabled people." The browser reads aloud the text and links on a page. But when an image appears, all Tabor hears is "Image." If the page is composed mostly of graphics, he will hear "Image," again and again. Carine Ullom, software trainer and documentation specialist at the University of Kansas, said people often thought visually oriented Web sites were the best. Navigating without seeing Ullom teaches a class to students and faculty about Internet accessibility twice a semester. The class gives an overview of accessibility issues and provides exposure to some of the quick, easy and basic things to do to make a Web site more accessible. the soft- ware, and the page will be much easier to navi- gate." Lynx was developed at the University Last year, Ullom suggested that Academic Computing Services begin including accessibility training in its Web-authoring classes. ACS took her advice. "We teach in order to promote accessible Web sites from the beginning, instead of trying to teach people to retrofit their page later," she said. The class demonstrates what it's like to use a speech-only browser and navigate a Web page with only a keyboard and no mouse. "We try to show how much more time-consuming and frustrating it is to navigate without the use of graphics," said Ullom. "It is very revealing to hear how a browser pronounces words and how a person can tell exactly where they are on the page." Accessibility solutions Internet accessibility became a major issue recently because of the threat of lawsuits against both government and private Web sites. Ben Isaacson, executive director Last November, the National Federation for the Blind filed a lawsuit against America Online, contending that the 'company's online software was inaccessible. As a result, the Constitution subcommittee of the U.S. House Judiciary committee held hearings to determine possible applications of the Americans with Disabilities Act to private Internet sites. The Justice Department has said the ADA ought to apply to commercial Web sites. This interpretation of the law stirred criticism from some business and online groups, which said that Web sites would have to remove images, live video and audio streams to comply. Isaacson told the Boston Herald that because the Internet industry will do anything to gain an additional market share, there was no need for government regulation for Internet accessibility. Photo illustration by Kyle Ramsey/KANSAN Isaacson seems to be right. AOL already has announced that a new version of its software will be released later this year that will improve accessibility for disabled users. This could make the Federation for the Blind's lawsuit moot. Graphics need not be abandoned, Ullom said, because providing alternative text for graphics actually is very simple. "Lynx software (a popular speech browser) will only identify a graphic by saying 'Image,' she said. "With alternative text, the graphic or link can be described by Room for improvement Most Web sites still remain too dependent on graphics and inaccessible to impaired users. The World Wide Web Consortium, which standardizes the web, started the Web Accessibility Initiative. The initiative lists 14 guidelines to make a Web site accessible. "Web sites change so often and vary so much from page to page that a sight-impaired user is often not able to skip through choices they know should be coming," she said. "This wastes a lot of time." The other quick fix, she said, was to make links complete sentences or phrases so that users would have some context to understand where the link leads. Ullom said she would add two additional guidelines to the list. One is keeping the page consistent. "If a user chooses to listen only to the links on a page, it can often be very confusing, especially if the link reads 'click here' or 'info'. If the link takes you to a page about computer class schedules, the link read 'computer class schedule' instead of 'schedule' or just having a link that says 'info,'" Ullom said. Judy Brewer, director of the WA1 International Program office, said that Web accessibility solutions generally were inexpensive and easy to implement and that they represented good Web design. Bright spots on the horizon Designers and Web masters are beginning to take note. Christopher Ryan, creator of the School of Journalism's Digital Jayhawk, is attempting to make the Web site accessible to people with disabilities. "While we are still in the building stages of the Digital Jayhawk and are not completely accessible to the disabled, we are working to separate the presentation from the information," Ryan said. Ryan intends to have an alternative page with a more barebones presentation and to use alternative text for graphics and photos. With the increased government and business awareness and the creation of the initiative guidelines, Internet users like Godinez and Tabor should begin to find the Web an easier place navigate. Johnna Godinez said the site for The Council for Exceptional Children was especially bad, even though it deals with disability issues. But when Robert Tabor went to Amazon.com to demonstrate its inaccessibility, he was surprised to find a page that was laid out simply and was easy to follow. "I guess they have improved it since last time I was here," Tabor said. - Edited by Mindie Miller Still have email on Falcon or Eagle? Exchange is good!

Usually five to 10 students from the University are approved for the academic exchange, said Carol Prentice, assistant to the provost. Some of the classes offered are History of Native American Indian Tribes and Contemporary Issues of the American Indian. Prittice said priority was given to upperclassmen and to those whose studies will be enhanced by the exchange. For example, English literature majors who apply to take a Native American literature class would be given preference over a math major. A student is can take one class a semester at Haskell. Fellicia Mitchell, Topeka sophomore, took Contemporary Issues of American Indians at Haskell last spring. She came across information about the exchange program while surfing the Haskell Web site. Mitchell said she's always been interested in taking classes at Haskell, so she looked into it. "I went in and was told I probably wouldn't get in because I was a freshman." Mitchell said. "But I filled out an application anyway. The office of the provost called and said they'd let me do it." To apply for the program, students apply at the Provost's office in Strong Hall. The decision is made within a week whether he or she will be able to take the class. Once students are granted permission, they are given a closed class opener to enroll in the class. This process must be completed before early enrollment. To take a class at Haskell in Spring 2001, students must turn in a petition early in the fall. The Haskell classes available to KU students are in the timetable under the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and under the subheading Liberal Arts and Sciences. Prentice said the times in the timetable were not correct but were listed so students would know the classes were available. Students who take classes at Haskell pay KU tuition and fees and receive KU credit. "It was a great experience," Mitchell said. "We learned about the relationship of the government to the Native Americans, past and present."

Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN Natural History Museum houses panorama,bee hive By Stephanie Twewito Special to the Kansan Most students don't realize it, but they routinely pass by a 65-foot long sea lizard, a famous horse and live venomous snakes. These creatures are in the Natural History Museum, located on the north end of Jayhawk Boulevard next to the Kansas Union in Dyche Hall. Visitors to the Natural History Museum are met by a more than 65 feet-long sea lizard, or mosaasaur, that hangs from the ceiling above the museum's entryway. It is one of the most popular attractions, according to Jason Wolvington, visitor services coordinator. The mosasaur, which is the largest one of its kind found, lived in Western Kansas between 65 and 90 million years ago, at the same time the dinosaurs roamed the earth. This was during the Cretaceous period when an ocean covered Kansas, Wolvington said. The mosaasaur bones were discovered in 1911 by a KU researcher in Sharon Springs, Wolvington said. Once past the hanging Mosasaur, visitors are surrounded by the museum's Panorama of North America. It is a display of various North American animals, plants and natural environments—from the Arctic Circle to the tropics. The Panorama is a taxidermy display behind glass that follows the length of the museum's west wall and extends three stories to the museum's sixth floor ceiling. The display features dozens of animals, from Arctic walruses and seals to Western moose and bison and tropical spider monkeys. The display also features numerous plants from all different regions and is the largest diorama display of its type. Wolvington said most of the animals in the display were collected and taxidermied by L.L. Dyche, the first curator of the Natural History Museum. Dyche collected and displayed the animals in Chicago during the 1893 World's Fair. "It was a hit at the fair back then, people didn't travel as much and had never seen all the animals," Wolvington said. The building that holds the museum is named after Dyche and was specifically constructed to house the Panorama, Wolvington said. Dyche is also responsible for another of the museum's big attractions; the horse named Comanche. Comanche was the only cavalry horse found alive at the Little Big Horn battlefield. The 1876 battle between George Custer's 7th U.S. Cavalry and Sioux and Cheyenne warriors is also known as Custer's Last Stand. Wolvington said that although Comanche was not Custer's horse, he was a horse in Custer's 7th Cavalry. "When the reinforcements made it to Little Big Horn, the only thing left standing was Manchech," Wolvington said. "When they found him, they treated him like a hero. feeding him the best oats and hay that money could buy." The rumor is that after Comanche died in Fort Riley in 1891, Dyche did taxidermy work on him and when Fort Riley refused to pay its bill, Dyche kept the horse, Wolvington said. the Natural History Museum. Wolvington said that Comanche was now property of If the mossaur, Panorama and Comanche aren't reason enough to visit the Natural History Museum, Wolvington said many people come to look at the live Bee Tree. "It is an actual honeycomb bee hive. There are thousands of bees in there," Wolvington said. The Bee Tree is a six-foot tree cast that has the hive inside of it. Attached to the树 is a clear plastic tube leading to a sixth floor window. "This allows the bees to go outside, find their food—nectar and pollen from flowers—and bring it back to the bive." Wolvington said. Inside the hive is a "live from the hive" video camera that shows the innerworkings of the hive on a TV near the Bee Tree. Just past the bees, museum visitors can be surrounded by 17 live snakes. All of the snakes are Kansas natives and four are venomous. Wolvington said the snakes were a big attraction simply because they were alive. "All of the museum is stuffed dead animals. People associate with the snakes. They are in Kansas and they see them in their backyard or while they are camping or hiking," Wolvington said. "The they are also an opportunity for people to learn about the snakes. They hear about venomous snakes and now they can see what they look like and know to avoid them if they see them," he said.

The Constitution is the fundamental legal framework of the United States and its people. The Constitution is a well-known work of American literature and art. It is often studied in high schools and colleges as a way to understand the origins and development of the United States. The Constitution is also used in various contexts, including politics, economics, and history. It is a model for how the United States government works and how the people are governed. The Constitution is also an important symbol of the nation's identity and spirit. It is a source of inspiration and unity among the citizens of the United States.

The pus, her nose puffed to size. She said, "I want to fall." Other of a city of country. Or of used rings was common. Danceck, piercer Skin illustrations, 740 Massachusetts St., need that piercings could dangerous. But he said prob- "They need to really be certain that the piercing is something they want to do and realize that it probably has long-term consequences." Rock said. He said the number of piercing problems treated at Watkins had risen with the increased popularity of body piercing. Areas such as the tongue, nose and cartilage of the ear run the worst risk of infection. Rock said the safest thing students could do was not to get pierced at all. "I am not aware of any medical reason to recommend piercing," Rock said. "It is purely a cosmetic procedure with risks, and those include infection and scarring. Depending on what area is pierced, it may also potentially impair normal bodily functions." a tongue piercing, which is one of the more popular piercings, can lead to cracked teeth or other complications. Rock said that nipple and genital piercings were especially dangerous and could cause problems with nursing children or sexual performance. Ed Manda, Lawrence dentist, cautioned students about tongue piercing. "If something is big enough and in the way, it can cause damage to the teeth," Manda said. He said that tooth damage from tongue all o f your pierc- ings thoroughly- ly," Kappauf said. "I don't believe their concern is misplaced," Tuck said. "But at the same time, if you take care of your piercing, you won't run into those problems." Tuck said that people encounter problems because they think piercings have healed and simply stop cleaning the area. He said that piercings could look fine within two to four weeks but that it actually took eight to 12 weeks for most piercings to heal. "I had to grab on, find where the already-healed hole was, grab the jewelry, give her a three count, and push it on through," "It won't just heal on its own. You have to get in there. You have to clean it," Tuck said. Sometimes, however, infections and other problems can occur if people go to inexperienced piercers or use the wrong jewelry. Tuck said he had seen several cases of people who had problems because of an unskilled piercer. Tuck said. "It hurt. It hurt real bad." He said a woman who had gotten her tongue pierced in Portugal by a street vendor had problems a week later. The vendor had pierced her tongue with jewelry that was too short. When her tongue began to swell, it engulfed the tongue stud. Rock said students could do several things to avoid bad piercing experiences. The piercing should be done at an established piercing business that has a clean, well-lighted studio. The piercer should be experienced, should take time to explain the risks of the piercing and should offer extensive instructions for care after the piercing Tuck said that educating people about the care of their new piercings was one of the best ways to prevent an infection. "Obviously you have to follow good rules of hygiene, wash your hands before you touch any of your piercings and cleanse "A person who is not educated is going to run into more problems," he said. "They are just blissfully unaware about what can go wrong." Most of the responsibility of having a positive piercing experience is on the shoulders of those who decide to get pierced. Chuck Kappau, Dallas sophomore, has his navel, nipples and tongue pierced. He has never had any major problems with his piercings. But, Kappauf attributed his successful piercing experience to his motivation. "If you want a piercing enough, you'll know what the benefits and consequences of getting that piercing will be," he said. "I didn't do any of my piercings on a whim." Chrissy Heikkila willingly endured a week-long infection so she could keep her tongue ring. She has no regrets about keeping the piercing. "After the swelling and infections went away, it has been really fun." Heikkilä said. "I haven't had any problems with it since then. Basically, I just kept with it because I enjoined it so much." Heikkila said that she would be willing to go through the entire experience again — oozing tongue and all. "It it was gross and really scary, but nothing bad came of it," Heikkila said. "It it was definitely an experience." Edited by Mindie Miller Use a new toothbrush and bottled water to brush teeth and tongue each day during healing. Drink plenty of cold liquids (water, fruit juice), washing out food particles and residues with bottled water after meals and snacks. Do not use toothpaste, mouthwash, peroxides or other oral care products during healing, such products do not aid in healing and may irritate the piercing. Avoid oral contact with anything irritating: alcohol, smoke, spicy, sugary or highly acidic food and drinks. ■ When you have healed and sealed the piercing, change to a shorter post to ensure a good fit that will reduce wear on teeth and gums.

Photo by Phil Cauthon. By Phil Cauthon Kansan campus editor One look at Boomer's penetrating glare and visitors to the exotic cat farm near Oskaloosa will know they are not in a zoo. Though the 400-pound male lion — like all 34 lions, tigers, cougars and leopards on the farm — is doubly secure behind cages much like those in any zoo, Boomer's fierce territoriality is rarely seen in zoo animals more accustomed to the presence of humans. Ken Alvarez and his 2-year-old leopard, Tundra, are an unlikely match. Alvarez said leopards were solitary animals and typically didn't keep company with other leopards, much less humans. However, Tundra is a veterinar of Alvarez's traveling cat show and is quite comfortable even around strangers. And few zoo-goers will ever feel the fear that Boomer's growls and stares arouse in many visitors to Barb and Dick Stephens' cat farm. "Oh, Boomer's all right," Barb Stephens reassures a newly arrived group of visitors. "He just likes to intimidate, don't you Boomer? As soon as you show him you're not afraid, he's just another pussy cat. He's really a sweetheart." As a teen visitor squats within a foot of Boomer's cage, Stephens quickly adds, "You still want to stay plenty back from the cage, sweetie." Stephens bought her first cat — a cougar named Stinky — six years ago for $550 out of the Animal Finders' Guide, the want ads for anything from alligators to zebras. "It's always been a dream of mine," Stephens said. "And now they're mine, and I love them. We love them all." In 1997, Stephens bought Tuffy, her first Siberian tiger kitten, who is now her 750-pound pride and joy. Along the way she has taken on four more cougars and a lioness kitten — all abandoned by their owners and directed to Stephens' refuge by word of mouth. — until it gets to be 300 pounds. Well, somebody still has to take care of them." Neither federal nor state law prohibit Kansans from owning exotic pets, whether toucans or tigers. The City of Lawrence and Douglas County prohibit ownership of most exotic pets, including all big cats. At least eight Kansas counties permit exotic cats, and 14 Kansans own licensed farms like the Stephenses', according to U.S. Department of Agriculture licensing records. Agriculture licensing But there are probably more Kansans than that keeping big cats as pets. Exotic pet owners need licenses only when they breed cats, travel with them or otherwise profit from them, said Robert Bacon, a USDA inspector. Cougars are an exception. Because they are native to Kansas, they are licensed under the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. Exotic cat licensees are subject to unannounced inspections several times a year by Bacon and other USDA officials. "There are people getting into this business who don't know what they're doing," he said. "But many people genuinely care about the animals, and they have good operations and are a credit to the industry." "We go to each site a minimum of once a year," said Bacon, who oversees 21 counties in Kansas, inspecting zoos, kennels, circuses, traveling petting zoos, airports that ship live cargo and farms like the Stephens'. "If somebody is a stripper — and this really happened — and she has a Bengal tiger as part of her act, then we go to where she has the cat — in this case the strip joint — and you do your job and you leave," Bacon said. "We go to some sites three or four times a year, or more for the worst facilities. Those that are more noncompliant get visited more." Bacon said operations like the one in Oskaloosa were as varied as the people who ran them. At a minimum, he said, his inspections check for adequate caging, edible food, potable water, healthy animals and signs of neglect such as scattered bones or old feces. ...Saves the cats Boomer and his cagemate, Madeleine, are Ken Alvarez's lion breeding pair, which he keeps at an exotic cat farm near Oskaaloa. Each year, Alvarez breeds up to four lions or tigers for "picture cats" — young cats that are safe around children and can travel with his exotic cat show. Abandoned animals now comprise less than half of Stephens' cats. In April, her farm's cat population more than doubled when she began taking care of cats owned by Ken Alvarez, who operates a USDA-licensed traveling cat show. By the end of this week — once Alvarez brings his two white tiger kittens — Stephens' farm will house 36 cats and one black bear cub. Alvarez — a 31-year-old manufacturer who lives near Wichita" says he travels with his cats to discourage people from keeping them as pets and to raise awareness of exotic cat conservation programs. Now in his third year, Alvarez has booked several dozen shows, touring the United States and Canada with four or five picture cats, kittens that are just a few months old and safe for contact with children. The $10 he charges for each photo — averaging 300 or 400 photos per show — nearly covers the cost of keeping his cats, he said. And several shows a year are for charity, including benefits for tiger research and conservation. "This has been a lifelong dream and, after starting the show with one tiger, we were able to work up from there," Alvarez said. "It looks like a profitable business, but it's not. We do it because we love the animals." Food alone costs $1,700 a month for the 34 cats — or about $50 per cat each month, he said. Except for a weekly starve-day, his full-grown cats get about 10 pounds of chicken and beef daily. The cats occasional- iy get a treat when the sheriff directs the Stephenses to area roadkill. "It's pretty interesting to watch them eat a deer." Alayrez said. "They tear it to pieces pretty darn quick." Other costs include an average of $5,000 a year in veterinary care for all the cats and $4,000 each year for a million-dollar insurance policy. All things considered, keeping one adult lion or tiger costs Alvarez about $2.000 a year. Alvarez has to breed three or four cats a year to keep his traveling show going. Before they are 2 years old, tigers put on about 300 pounds, rendering them far too large to be picture cats. And Alvarez and Stephens can plan on those costs for 10 to 20 years—the typical life span of a big cat. Not for sale Selling the ex-picture cats would be the easiest way to sustain Alvarez's show, were it not diametrically opposed to his ideals. Not only would he save thousands in costs each year, but he also could earn more than $1,000 for each adult tiger or lion he sold through the Animal Finders' Guide. "If someone offered me $10,000 for a cat, I wouldn't do it." Alvarez said. "These cats are my kids and you wouldn't sell your kids." Alvarez said that if someone insisted on buying one of his cats, he would require that the buyer work with him for several months to prove dedication to the cat. Even then, he said, he would rather not accept money for a cat. Dick Stephens has never sold any of his cats either. He said his work as a federal contractor pays for his exotic pets. But he said he would consider breeding his cougars for sale if the price were to rise substantially higher than the current $400. Endangered species? A reason cited by Alvarez and Stephens for raising Siberian tigers is to help preserve an endangered species. According to National Geographic magazine, fewer than 7,000 tigers remain in the wild. Though Stephens and Alvarez say their cats are all purebred, many farms that claim to have endangered cats really have crossbreeds, which are genetically useless, said Conrad Schmitt, zoological curator for the Kansas City Zoological Park in Kansas City. Me Schmitt said that well-documented bloodlines and breeding records — often only kept by zoos — would be necessary to assure any given genetic strain could survive in the wild once reintroduced from captivity. Tiger numbers continue to dwindle, say researchers, because of poaching in India and China, where a dead tiger can fetch up to $250,000 on the black market. Not only are the pelts extremely valuable, but so are tiger teeth, claws and entrails — all used as aphrodiascars — and tiger penis, which is considered a delicacy in many Asian cultures. Crossbreeding an Indochinese tiger with a Bengal tiger, for example, was no different than cross-breeding a lion and a tiger Schmitt said. Such crossbreeds could not be used in the future to recreate the animals that now roam wild in Asia and Africa. Legal but lethal Schmitt is something of an activist when it comes to spreading his concern that people not equate the legality of keeping big cats with safety. Whenever he gets the chance, Schmitt tells the story of his college roommate — a zookeeper at Miami Metropolitan Zoo for 20 years, who was mauled by a tiger he had been with for several years. "He was dead before he could turn toward the door," Schmitt said. "Our concern is that often people don't know what they're getting into commitment-wise or financially." Schmitt's concern is echoed by the USDA. Its Web site warns that unsuspecting children and adults have been seriously injured or killed, even when the animals involved were only playing. However, the site also notes that the federal government does not regulate ownership and care of large, wild and exotic cats as pets. And that's the way it should be, said Davy Harkins. El Dorado veterinarian and one of the few vets in Kansas who will operate on exotic cats. "We live in America, and in America people are allowed to do a lot of crazy things. I'm not sure keeping these cats falls in the category of crazy things, but as long as the public is safe, they should be able to do it," Harkins said. "As far as I feel, they're one of God's great creatures to be admired and appreciated, and they need care just like a pet dog, a pet cat or a pet big cat." Roy Dunnaway, Jefferson County sheriff, said that nearly all of the county's residents appreciated the Stephens' cat farm and that his office hadn't received a complaint about the farm for years. "There's people that are not comfortable with the cats," Dunnaway said. "But as far as the Stephenses, I think they take good care of them and make sure the public won't be harmed by them." Different than a zoo Visitors to the Stephens' farm frequently will see more than just cats behind cages. If the weather is cool and the cats aren't moody, Barb Stephens can exchange kisses with her tiger Tuffy. Dick Stephens becomes a human gym jungle for his cougars. And, if he's in town, Alvarez will jump in the pool with his tigers or play tackle football with Boomer, his breeding lion, which he raised from a kitten. "He's hurt me a couple times when he's tackled me and hit me pretty good," Alvarez said. "But I've hit him pretty good, too." Barb Stephens watches with a group of visitors as Alvarez enters the cage with Boomer and the lion's pregnant cagemate Sable. Undaunted by the growls of the two full-grown carnivores, Alvarez strides through the cage and wraps his arms around Boomer's mane. "When I see Ken and Boomer together like that, I want to do that, too," Stephens said. "I will. Before I die, I'm going to get in the cage and hug him, at least once." —Edited by BriAnne Hess USUALLY WHEN YOU ROLL SOMETHING THIS GOOD, IT'S ILLEGAL. Chipotle MEXICAN GRILL GOURMET BURRITOS.

Photo by Jamie Roper/KANSAN 10 By Karen Lucas Kansan staff writer Vintage tables, shower curtains, CDs, cars, and the odd double-decker bus are among the hodgepodge that draws KU students to local garage sales. Many sales are held in late summer as students return to Lawrence. More than 60 garage sales were advertised for the last weekend in July in local newspapers On their way to Kansas City one Saturday this summer, Carolyn Richardson, Hutchinson junior, and Steven Stewart, Leavenworth junior, stopped at a garage sale they spotted in the 2000 block of Massachusetts Street. For $30, Richardson bought a red Formica table with chrome legs for her new apartment. "I think it's a good deal," Richardson said. "We saw a similar one at another garage sale that was like $150." At Cheryl Sharp's sale in the 1400 block of Maple Lane in east Lawrence, Jun Zhang, Lawrence graduate student, paid $2 for nine CDs, including songs by Lorrie Morgan and Diamond Rio. Zhang said that even though he had never heard the CDs, he would use them as background music. The CDs were among the many odds and ends that seller Cheryl Sharp said she needed to unload because she was getting married and moving to Bermuda. She was asking $12,000 for a silver '98 Honda Civic with 42,000 miles on it. Two baskets of small miscellaneous items, including plastic drinking cups and a dust pan, though, were free. Lauren MacPherson, Wichita junior, and her boyfriend also came to Sharp's sale. "It's so neat looking at a different stuff because you see different aspects of people's lives," MacPherson Nor did she leave the Maple Lane sale empty-handed. For $1, she walked out with a green velvet magician's hat and silver wand. said. While looking through the sale items, MacPherson raved about a '67 painting of the Sigma Chi fraternity house she got an earlier garage sale. "It would be nice to wear it to the Renaissance Festival." she said. festival, site sale. A KU student and his wife were the first customers at Janet Muggy's sale on 1300 Road North in Eudora. They bought dishes and a shower curtain, but they passed up the most unusual and most expensive sale item: a white '67 Bristol double-decker bus for $10,000. double ducker blower Her husband, Bill Muggy, is owner of the Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road. He said he used the bus for charter trips and to shuttle students from the residence halls to his store, but that it was no longer in good running condition. "It has an engine problem that's going to take about $5,000 to fix." he said. Janet Muggy said she thought someone might be interested in using the bus for a permanent standing business or for advertising. In the 1900 block of Kentucky Street, Jennifer Casey, Wichita graduate student, and her fliance, Brian Olliges, St. Louis senior, had a garage sale with Casey's sister and brother-in-law, both KU alumni. "Since we're poor college students, we're trying to be fair and make everything cheap." Casey said. Among the sale items were a $5 AT&T computer, five-speed women's bike for $15 and a $1 Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner.

They drag equipment into the building, set up drums and sound systems and hook up electric guitars and microphones. After a few microphone checks, they perform practice songs to make sure their sound is right. Ten songs and one hour later, the men reload the equipment, drive home and reassemble it in Clint's living room. They have practice again soon. Before going their separate ways, the men discuss what needs to be done before next week's performance; Update the Web site; send out information about the next show; call the club to make sure everything is set. This is the life of up-and-coming rock performers. They don't have a manager to book gigs and meet their wants and needs. They don't have special engineers to ensure perfect sound at each performance. They don't have anyone wno arrives early to set up their equipment. The ClintK Band does everything for itself. The group — whose members hail from Baldwin City and Lawrence — writes its own music, maintains its own Web site, handles its own promotions and books its own gigs. Last February, it even produced its own CD. Here We Go. The group would like to make it big someday, but it faces one major challenge: It needs a record deal. Clint Kueffer, lead singer and guitarist, said that a small label had offered the group a record deal but that the group had not been interested. "We didn't go with a record label at first because we felt it was too early to make that kind of commitment to anybody," said Kueffer, a University of Kansas alumnus. "We'd much rather do what we could do on our own so that we could do the kind of music we wanted to do instead of what someone else told us to do." Nicholas Gordan, label manager at the Artist-Workshop in Lawrence, said Lawrence was one of the greatest cities in the country for developing artists. "It is very easy to get shows here if you're good," he said. "We have good publicists and good recording companies. Everything a developing artist needs is right here in Lawrence." ClintK Band members are using that accessibility to their advantage. They perform at local venues, such as The Bottleneck and Hashinger Hall. They have played in Kansas City and have dropped CDs at local radio stations and record stores. And now the group has found a faster and cheaper way to market itself: The Internet. Chet Kueffer, ClintK Band bassist and Baldwin City sophomore, said the group sometimes got 30 to 40 e-mails a day. He said it was great being able to tell fans about the band's Web site. Gordon said the Internet was slowly making life easier for lesser-known groups because it offered a worldwide audience and allowed record companies and interested buyers to click on the band's site and listen to its sounds. "People will go there and find out when we play and find out other stupid stuff "There's a whole new realm of exposure that exists now because of the Internet." Nicholas Gordon label manager about us and, hopefully, want to buy the CD," he said. Gordon said the Internet was becoming a huge influence in the music industry. "There's a whole new realm of exposure that exists now because of the Internet," he said. "It combines airplay, live images of the bands, Web casts from clubs during performances, and the best thing is, it's free to get on, so millions of people will see it." Brad Koehler, sound engineer at Mercy Record Studio in Lawrence, agreed. If groups want to make a buzz in the music industry, he said, a Web site is the way to go. "There was a duo in Texas who was trying to get some record companies interested in them," he said. "So they started e-mailing these MP3 files to all these different countries throughout Europe and Asia. Just by selling their MP3 files, they were able to sell 50,000 units of their CDs. They showed the record companies how much they sold on their own, and then they finally got signed." Koehler said the Internet made it easier for unsigned bands to sell products without a record company because it offered alternative venues. "All they really have to do is contact one of the Internet server companies, like the Ultimate Band List or CD Now," he said. "These companies will individually sell your product online for you, or they will link to your site, where you can sell it yourself." The ClintK Band produced 1,000 copies of its first CD for about $1,000. In terms of profit, the group broke even.

The high-tech machine's plush interior is a far cry from the old days of suetling, dust-ridden harvest. An ergonomic seat, A/C, finger-touch shifting and Paul Harvey's "Rest of the Story" on the radio remind the 61-year-old farmer from Kendall how different farming is these days. Perched above the vast stretches of wheat he planted 10 months ago, Lampe pauses before firing up the combine and remarks that the combine — along with other equipment and his land— is just about all he has to show for his life in the field. Dennis Carter — farmer from Syracuse, Kan. — said this year's wheat crop was yielding about 40 bushels per acre. That pales in comparison to last year's 60 to 70 bushel-acres, but may still allow Hamilton County farmers to break even. "Anyone in this business who would've sold out 10 years ago and put the money in the stock market would be a wealthy person today," said Lampe, a wheat veteran of 50 years. "Or at least they'd be a whole lot better off than they are now." Lampe, 61, expects this year's wheat crop — no worse than most of his and other farmers' most recent crops — to yield about a 3 percent return. Armed with more than a million dollars worth of land, equipment and other investments; after months of sweat and incessant worry; even after substantial government subsidies, he might earn $30,000 this year. And that's an estimate, not a salary or wage he can depend upon. That's one reason he couldn't expect any of his five kids to take on the family land as Lampe did after his father retired. In fact, he says he'd probably advise them against it. "Agriculture isn't attracting any youth because of the return on the investment," Lampe said. "Basically you're out here slaving away for peanuts." "My oldest son is working for a communications deal in New York making a lot more money than I'm making. How am I supposed to tell him to come back and farm when I retire? And he'd like to farm, but I don't know if I can recommend it. That's sad. Real sad." Big-time business or buet big time business of it To get the most out of costly machinery — espe: cially given dismally low wheat prices - the incentive is for farmers to take on more and more land, whether by buying the land or leasing it Thus begins a vicious cycle: larger and larger crops — which lead to flooded wheat markets — which lead to perpetually depressed prices. Many farmers, including Lampe, try to stay ahead by cultivating as much land as possible. But more land requires newer and more expensive equipment capable of harvesting more wheat in less time. And the newer the tractors and combines, the less likely Lampe can make repairs himself, adding even more costs when the inevitable breakdowns occur. Other farmers cope with the stingy wheat market by reducing their financial commitments to the farm or getting out of farming altogether. *The fields make more noise when they're dry and ripe. How do wheat farmers know when it's time to harvest? Responses from Hamilton County farmers include: *The wheat heads will lean over when they're ready. *You can bite the berry and if it's soft at all, it's not ready. Dennis Carter, a 56-year-old farmer from Syracuse, gave up farming wheat on 4,000 acres of land that he had rented from an elderly widow in Kansas City, Mo., in favor of planting sorghum on his own 480 acres in Hamilton County. By planting sorghum, a stalky green plant used for feeding cattle. Carter can sell his crop in the field to local dairies. The dairies harvest the crop themselves, allowing farmers like Carter to liquidate nearly all equipment overhead. Carter has found other ways to reduce his family's dependence on the farm's income: by buying the town's liquor store and helping Lampte harvest his wheat every year for two weeks in June. "Out here if you don't have 2,500 or 3,000 acres of wheat, why, it's pretty tough to make it," Carter said. "If you want to keep a smaller farm, you have to supplement your income with something else!" Other farmers sell their entire farms when a seemingly insumountable debt looms. After farming for 14 years, Melvin and Ione Louk sold their land and eventually began work at a grain elevator that they run in Kendall. "I (farmed) because my folks did," Melvin said. "We did well pretty well until the dust bows around 54." From then on it just got to the point where I couldn't afford it. It's probably good we got out when we did." 2 p.m. June 15 - Lampe has harvested about 50 acres or nearly 2,000 bushels of wheat — since morning, running his combine at a brisk 4 mph. Paul Harvey's radio program is interrupted by local news reporting that the county's average yield is just under 40 bushels per acre — not bad by some counties' averages, but not great compared to last year's 60- and 70-bushel acres. The news update also reports a 20-percent chance of rain as a cold front works its way south from Montana. "That's an 80-percent chance of not raining," Lanne remarked, still attuned to the report. Custom cutters As the cost of harvest equipment has crept up, so has an entire industry built around maximizing the productivity of expensive, high-tech combines. Fleets of so-called custom cutters travel from Arizona to Montana, harvesting wheat wherever they can find work. Like any harvest work, custom cutters' hours are from about 10 a.m. or as soon as the morning dew dissipates to several hours past sunset. And instead of the individual farmer's typical two-week harvest, their harvest season starts in early May and doesn't end until late September. But even after maximizing the hours eked out of his equipment, Lon Wurz's custom cutting business has just as tight a profit margin as the farmers themselves. "in the whole harvest industry, everybody's kind of looking over their shoulder as to whether it's time to bail out or if we're going to ride this dead horse into the ground," said Wurz, now on his 28th harvest. "Bailing out is probably the intelligent thing to do. But this is what I am. This is my form of identity. It's what I love. It's what I want to do. But it just ain't working. It takes me a lifetime to figure this out. I know I should quit, but I probably won't." he said. Wurz sees the most viable solution to the American farm's predicament in expanded overseas markets. "When I was a little boy, I remember my dad saying, 'We're the breadbasket of the world. We feed the world, and we need to be proud of that. He was right,' Wurz said. "But the rest of the world is farming now, and if something doesn't change pretty soon, I'm not sure we'll be needed anymore."

Mark Twain's family lived in the rooms above the store for a brief time. Photo by Karen Lucas/KANSAN The riverboat Mark Twain travels down the Mississippi River not far from his boyhood home. Photo by Karen Lucas/KANSAN HANNIBAL, Mo. — On a hilly, brick-covered street, a restored white-frame house has much the same view of the majestic Mississippi River that a legendary American author had more than a century ago. The two-story house with a picket fence about 100 miles north of St. Louis is where author Mark Twain lived as a boy. BOAT 1915 Henry Sweets, director of the Mark Twain Museum in Hannibal, Mo., points as he talks with Susan K. Harris, visiting professor from Pennsylvania State University, and her students in front of Twain's childhood home. Harris' class, which studied selected works by Twain, traveled to Hannibal this summer. "I just think it's a wonderful house, a wonderful place to live," said Oliver Schannath, Paterborn, Germany, graduate student. "I would love to have the experience of living in the place for a week. This house reminds me of the old houses I've seen in German museums of this kind." Schannah was one of seven graduate students who made a one-day trek in July to Humbain with Susan K. Harris, a visiting professor from Pennsylvania State University. Harris taught a two-week graduate seminar at the University of Kansas called "Mark Twain, the Past and the Creation of Regional History." "Why do people associate the Mississippi River Valley with Twinain?" she said. "What is it about his work that is so powerful that he has really come to stand for that region? Hopefully, the trip will answer some of those questions, will give us some immediate contact with the landscape that he describes." In a conversation prior to the trip, Harris said she and her students hoped to learn how Twain had become an American cultural icon. Before arriving in Hannibal at about noon, Harris' class stopped at a museum in Mark Twain State Park near Florida, Mo., which is about 30 miles southwest of Hannibal. The museum's centerpiece is a weathered, two-room wood cabin where Twain was born. Other items on display include paintings, photographs and Twain's handwritten 655-page manuscript of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. "It was fascinating to see his humble beginnings and how he became this larger-than-life character," said Phyllis Copt, an English teacher at Free State High School and seminar participant. Grant's Drug Store in Hannibal, Mo., displays a collection of dusty chemical bottles. Mark Twain's family lived for a brief period in the rooms above the store. The Hannibal tour began in the annex of the Mark Twain Museum, where the class was met by museum director Henry Sweets. After watching a video about Twain's life, the group looked at items ranging from one of the author's trademark white jackets to a typewriter and a high-wheel bicycle, both dating back to the late 1900s. On the wall behind the bicycle, is an inscription with one of Twain's quotations: "Get a bicycle. You will not regret it if you live." "He liked to try out new inventions and machines. He bought one of the first typewriters," Sweets said. One of the more recent display items in the annex is a 300-pound bronze bust of Twain. Its nose has been discolored by tourists who rubbed their hands on it, Sweets said. The next stop on the tour was Twain's childhood home overlooking the Mississippi. Inside the house, the class saw a refurbished kitchen, dining room and parlor on the first floor and two bedrooms on the second floor. At the older museum building next door, the group looked at foreign editions of Twain's works and the gift shop. Sweets next took the class members across the street for a tour of Grant's Drug Store, which has on display countless dusty chemical bottles in a first-floor exhibit. Harris and her students also got a glimpse of the nearby law office of Twain's father. For the museum's biographical video, Sweets and a film crew re-created a scene that took place in the office, which was described by Twain in one his earlier works. The Innocents Abroad. Sweets, who played the part of a dead man lying on the floor, said it was difficult to perform the scene in an unheated building in 20-degree weather. "It was very hard to keep from shivering or breathing too deeply," said Sweets, who was wearing only jeans and a flannel shirt during the filming of the scene. The ripper shot Mark The Riverboat Mark Twain travels down the Mississippi River not far from its namesake's boyhood home in Hannibal, Mo. Twain had a view of the river from his family's house. The final stop of the Hannibal tour was a new Twain museum several blocks away on Main Street, which is lined with shops that play on the Twain theme. Upon entering the museum, Michael Carriger, Ottawa graduate student, reflected on how Twain served as a symbolic as well as a commercialized figure. "He represents more than himself," Carriger said. "He is Americana. He's nostalgia. He's old times. Although you feel kind of 'iffy' about the commercialization of him for everything, nonetheless it brings people here, and it educates them. And that's a good thing." At one of the main exhibits, class members sat on a simulated wood raft while watching a video that showed excerpts from Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain's famous fictional account of a trip down the Mississippi River. In a separate exhibit, the group also observed 15 Norman Rockwell paintings that depicted scenes from some of Twain's novels. Before heading back to Lawrence, Harris said she thought the trip had been a meaningful experience for her students. "They're great," said Jill Blanche, Leavenworth graduate student. "I like that you can see the mischievousness in some of the pictures juxtaposed with the sweetness in the other ones." "It looked like it was highly successful," she said. "People have absorbed a lot of information, and they have lots to think about in the future." Susan K. Harris will give a lecture titled "Love Texts: The Role of Books in the Courtship of Olivia Langdon and Mark Twain" at 7 p.m. tomorrow in 4051 Wesco Hall. The lecture is free. Harris taught the Mark Twain seminar for this year's Alice F. Holmes Institute. The Twain seminar is this year's presentation of the Alice F. Holmes Institute, which is sponsored by the department of English. The institute consists of a two-week graduate seminar that focuses on either American or British literature and is taught by a distinguished visiting scholar, said Chester Sullivan, associate professor of English. By the end of the seminar, Harris' class finished its study of selected works by Twain, including Huckleberry Finn, Pudd'nhead Wilson, Tom Sauyer and The Autobiography of Mark Twinan. In addition to writing a 15 to 20-page paper and keeping a reading journal, students met with Harris for three hours each afternoon during the week to discuss the readings. Blanche gave ringmarks for the class discussions: "They've been really good," she said. "I think everybody in the class has a different focus, which helps bring us the big picture." Harris agreed. That's what makes a seminar work " "The whole class is dynamic," she said. "Everyone is really pitching in there and talking." Schannath said that he had been introduced to German translations of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer while he was growing up, but that this was the first time he had read them in English. "I have to admit that I had as much fun now reading these books as I had when I was a kid," he said. "That hasn't changed."

Many stores on Massachusetts Street have different styles to appeal to any taste in fashion. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN. Varsity Fall fads mix fashion bag By Shawn Kruggel Special to the Kansan A new school year presents the opportunity to reinvent personal style, whether it's prep or punk. Students who feel daring may want to change their looks drastically, while others may want to create a combination of styles. "Lawrence is a great place to break out, start new, and go for whatever you want to do," said Erinn Barr, an employee at Arizona Trading Company, 734 Massachusetts St. Predictions from students on campus and store employees on Massachusetts Street about what will be fashionable this fall at the University of Kansas included: Vintage T-shirts Vintage 14inch Jelly and slap bracelets from the '80s gear from The North Face Basic khakis Jeans, any kind Jeans, any kind Cropped pants, capri pants Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Hunger Sling packs Sling packs 70s and 80s retro Steve McConaughey Steve Madden shoes Cargo pants Clothing store managers also predicted some fashion trends. Gauntlet bracelets Counters, 1013 M.achusetts St., caters to students who prefer a mix of the wild and the basic. Corey Sievers, manager, said the store challenged shoppers to mix it up by adding something old and worn to something more contemporary and dressy. He encouraged a pairing of casual and polished looks to avoid head-to-toe shine. For the fall season, he said to look for 1970s-style vintage corduroy and dirty jeans for men; disco styles for women; and accessories straight from the '80s. Britches, 843 Massachusetts St., offers a clean and polished look for men and women. Craig Randle, manager, said he expected plenty of black and gray from the likes of Tommy Hilfiger, Kenneth Cole and 4U. Those looking to impress professors or hit the bar scene in style beyond typical khaki and plaid might find an edge here. Randle suggested that guys follow the girls' lead and not get stuck in T-shirt-and Jeans mode. Arizona Trading Company offers a little something for everyone. Women can find solid colors and calf-length skirts. And men: Forget baggy pants. Fit is back for fall. Cropped pants are still a safe bet for women and as well as vintage accessories, Barr said. The Buckle, 805 Massachusetts St., offers urban, skate and conservative styles for men and women. The store serves people interested in active lifetyles. Hayden Fowler, manager, said he predicted the return of the turtleneck for the fall, along with nylon and cotton mixed fabrics and raw and synthetic denims. The Buckle still carries baggy pants for men and both flared and nonflared jeans for women. Popular brands for the fall will be Ecko, Polo, Nautica and Lucky for men and Silver, Lucky and Ecko for women. Fowler said. At Sugartown Traders, 918 Massachusetts St., anything goes. Shoppers can punk out with a hipple twist. Dark colors and thick fabrics without added detail or labels abound. Women can find a wide variety of patterns on long sleeve shirts. Shelly Lane, co-owner, said she encouraged customers to experiment with style. "Most people want to be individuals, and what a better time to do it than in college?" she said. Sugartown offers used clothing. The lower prices allow students to mix and match different styles and expand their wardrobes on a budget. Brent Peterson, manager at The Gap, 647 Massachusetts St., said he expected a lot of glues and purplets. The Gap is changing its color palette from the bright colors of spring to cooler colors for the fall. New items include stretch khakis, shirts and skirts, all of which have a more European look. Also from Europe are sling packs, which have recently become popular on campus. But The Gap will continue to carry its classic jeans, khakis, T-shirts and polos. "Customers continue to come back because they know we'll always have them." Peterson said. Gap shoppers can look forward to a remodeled store in November, which will have four times the square footage. Edited by Mindie Miller Recycled clothes ease budget By Melissa Freedman Special to the Kansan 1970 College students on tight budgets can still dress well by shopping at Lawrence's buy-sell-trade stores. There are two stores downtown: Sugartown Traders at 918 Massachusetts St. and Arizona Trading Co. at 734 Massachusetts St. They offer a wide selection of clothing at reasonable prices. Ellen Wise, manager of Arizona Trading Co., said, "The main advantage of buy-sell-stores stores is that good clothing gets recycled." Buy-sell-trade stores are not the same as thrift stores. Thrift stores take donations of almost anything in any condition. Unlike thrift stores, buy-sell-trades stores pride themselves on choosing what they want to buy, Wise said. Erin Adamson, Lawrence senior, said she liked buying at buy-selltrade stores because of cheap prices and wide selections of clothing. Adamson put together two outfits at Sugartown Traders for less than $80. The first outfit was a rust-colored tank top from Abercrombie for $9; black stretch pants from Gap for $16.50; and black sandals for $10. Her second outfit was a pink button-down shirt from Gap for $8; a brown floral skirt for $6.50; and brown sandals for $22.50. Buy-sell-trade stores typically buy clothing that is in season and that is fashionable, Wise said. They buy only items they know will sell well. The stores also make sure that the clothing they are buying is in good condition. Erin Adamson, Lawrence senior, tries on a pair of used shoes at Sugartown Traders, 918 Massachusetts St. Like the Arizona Trading Co., 734 Massachusetts St., Sugartown buys, sells and trades used clothing. Buy-sell-trade stores look for name labels to buy, including The Gap. Abercrombie, Banana Lane said it wasn't easy to get hired as a buyer because buyers have to know today's fashion trends, go through a three-month training process, read trend magazines and travel. It is not an easy job, she said. Shelly Lane, co-owner of Sugartown Traders said the company prides itself on its selectivity in buying clothes. Not everyone who works at Sugartown Traders is qualified to buy clothing, she said. Specific people are hired to select clothing. Republic and The Limited. The stores only buy clothes that are in good shape, but might consider items with minor flaws, such as missing buttons. They will not buy clothing that is out of style. Nor will they buy sweatshirts, sweat pants, pajamas and nighttowns. Sugartown's prices on clothing range from $7.50 to $16.50. Shoes are priced from $8 to $25. The prices at Arizona Trading Co. range from $3 to $15 per item. Buy-sell-trade stores let sellers choose cash at 40 percent of the price the store could sell the item for, or give the sellers 60 percent in a store credit.

Cheap movies and free recreation are offered on campus, and dozens of Lawrence bars and restaurants cater to students and their small entertainment budgets. Daily food and drink specials are abundant. Students can even see a movie for 60 cents or rock climb for free. "The key thing is knowing the specials in town," Mariana Hinojosa, Hutchinson senior, said. "Every day in Lawrence there are good specials. You can eat a lot of good food for cheap, like half-price appetizers and happy-hour specials." Lis Neigert, Caracas, Venezuela, senior, said taking advantage of restaurant and bar specials was a good way to save money. "Lots of times they won't just tell you," she said. "Sometimes you have to ask for the specials." Hinojosa and Neigent both know about specials and deals for almost every day of the week for places other than restaurants. Hinojosa said she got to know the specials after living and working in Lawrence for several years, from Kansan ads and from calling and asking places about their specials. But for those students who are less aware of bargains and student discounts, here is the lowdown on various cheap entertainment options in Lawrence. On Campus Campus offers more than just classes. Dozens of events go on every day and night that don't cost much or are free. Organizations such as Student Union Activities, Recreation Services, the unions and the University's museums provide cheap activities and entertainment for students. "SUA was formed to provide entertainment and involvement opportunities for students," said Leslie Heustead, program director of the Kansas Union. "It definitely is there to offer opportunities for entertainment at an affordable price." FUN FINDING ONLINE For more information on arts, entertainment, recreation and the Lawrence community visit www.lawrence.com. For information about campus organizations, visit www.ukans.edu. Amy Brozenic, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said she saw the movie Gladiator for free last semester at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St. The showing was sponsored by SUA. "It was so much fun to watch a movie with a bunch of college people. Liberty Hall was packed, and it was all students. And it was free, so that was fun." Brozenic said. Recreation Services also offers free student recreation, including weights and exercise equipment, swimming and a rock climbing area. "We provide the equipment and will teach them how to do it for free," said Mary Chappell, director of Recreation Services. Recreation Services also organizes intramural and club sports teams. It offers about 30 individual and team intramural sports. Individual and dual sports are free, and team sports cost $25 or $30 per team, Chappell said. They also have 25 club sports teams, such as badminton, roller hockey, crew, lacrosse and water polo. Club dues range from $5 to $110, but most are no more than $50 per semester. The Jaybowl, on the first floor of the Kansas Union, offers inexpensive bowling for students. Games are $1.50 each and shoe rentals are $1. It's open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and from noon to 10 p.m. Saturday. The University also is home to four museums that are free to students and offer a variety of exhibits: the Museum of Anthropology in Spooner Hall; the Natural History Museum in Dyche Hall; the Spencer Museum of Art, 1301 Mississippi St., behind the Kansas Union; and the Wilcox Classical Museum in 103 Lippincott Hall. Cheap options off campus and around town are plentiful. Around Town Window shopping on Massachusetts Street is an inexpensive way to spend a day Neigert said she sometimes played pool at bars during the day when there were free tables that were open. The Lawrence Humane society, 1805 E. 19th St., is home to dozens of animals that are hungry for attention. Playing with the animals is free. Another one of Neigert's favorite inexpensive outings is to go to Borders Books, Music & Cafe, 700 New Hampshire St. "It's great because you can go in, pick out a book, read it in the coffee shop and put it back," she said. up Other coffee shops in town offer quiet places to read or gather for a cup of coffee and conversation. The Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St., is open 24 hours. "I can go and spend $2 on some coffee and stay for however long studying, talking or whatever." Hinojosa said. Other restaurants — such as Taco Bell, Steak n Shake, Perkins and Burrito King — are open late or 24 hours. These places offer cheap food or just a place to hang out at all hours. Recreation Away from campus and Lawrence businesses are several parks that offer free relaxation. "Or I'll go to Clinton Lake and go fishing. That's a lot of fun, too," she said. "And it's cheap." Hinjoza said she visited the wetlands by Mary's Lake Nature Trail — near Haskell Indian Nations University, at Haskell Avenue and 31st Street — for a refreshing nature walk. Brozenic agreed that taking advantage of good weather and the outdoors provided good entertainment. "Sometimes I'll go for a walk with my friends 'i'm bored and it's nice outside," she said. "And I know there's a lot of great bike trials, too." Lawrence parks have multi-use trails for biking, hiking, jogging and nature-walking. Clinton Lake State Park, west of Lawrence on Clinton Parkway, offers fishing, camping and bike trails. Other bike trails are at Naismith Valley Park, 912 W. 27th St.; the levee along the Kansas River; the Santa Fe Railroad line, which was recently renovated into a hiking and biking trail; and hard-surface walkways along Clinton Parkway. Many Lawrence theaters offer student discounts, making theater outings more affordable for students on a budget. SUA offers discounted movies regularly, and the SUA Movie Card, which costs $35, will give students access to films for There is also an 18-hole disc-golf course at Centennial Park, 600 Rockledge Road. Movies about 60 cents per movie. The movies are usually played at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union, but occasionally play at Liberty Hall, Heustead said.

The broad term doesn't show the diversity of the Hispanic population of the United States, which includes people of Mexican, Central American, Puerto Rican, Cuban, South American, and Spanish background. People of Hispanic origin make up about 11 percent of the US population, and 2.4 percent of the student population of the University of Kansas. "We're all a mixed bunch of people," said Eulalio Munoz Jr., Topeka sophomore. Munoz said he had discovered a variety of Hispanic cultures while attending the University, and that they have broadened his perspective beyond his own Mexican heritage. "There's a lot more diversity here," he said. There's a lot more diversity here. He said. Munoz, the oldest of nine, is the son of a first generation Mexican-American mother and a father who immigrated to the United States from Matamoros, Mexico. Lenexa senior Aida Garcia said, "That would frustrate me when I'd be mistaken for Mexican." Garcia was born in Guatemala City. Guatemala. Hispanic students sometimes encounter a common assumption that all Hispanic people are Mexican. She came to the United States when she was 8. She said that she was commonly mistaken as Mexican, especially because she lives in the Kansas City area, which has a large Mexican-American population. "Instead of getting mad, I just try to let people know I'm not," she said. Garcia said both young people and adults mistakenly assumed she was Mexican. That assumption, as well as her upper-middle class upbringing, made it hard for her to interact with the Hispanic community as effectively as she wanted, she said. She said she felt looked down on when she was working in Kansas City because her appearance was different than the city's Mexican-Americans. "It's frustrating and hurtful because you can't help who you are." she said. Stereotypical Hispanic features are brown eyes, brown skin and black hair, but Hispanics may have blonde hair and blue eyes or features common to African-Americans. "I'd say I'm more Mexican than American," said Jacinta Mendoza, Wichita sophomore. Mendoza, who's half Mexican and half American, grew up in Monterey, Mexico, and attended high school in Kansas. Because of her blonde hair, white skin and blue eyes, Mendoza said others were usually shocked when they learned of her ethnicity. They are also surprised when they hear her speak fluent Spanish. "They think I don't understand," she said. "I make it clear that I'm not grinda." Mendoza also said her bicultural identity made it hard to be fully recognized by both Americans and Mexicans. "It's hard to be accepted in both places." she said. The situation is the same for Stephen Hylton, San Jose, Costa Rica, senior. Hylton carries the physical characteristics typical of African Americans. "People say, 'I would've never guessed you were from Costa Rica.'" he said. "They think that since I'm Black, that means I'm not from Latin America and cannot speak Spanish."

At the University, these four individuals said they took opportunities to learn about and experience the cultural diversity of the Hispanic population. They do this by educating themselves or forming friendships with other Hispanics. "I enjoy listening to salsa and merengue and eating Mexican food." Garcia said. Mendoza said she knew Puerto Ricans, Costa Ricans and Brazilians. Although they have made their own efforts to learn about the diversity of Hispanics, all four said they would like to see non-Hispanics make the same effort to open their minds. "It encompasses more than Mexican, Puerto Rican and Cuban," Hylton said. "Latin America is so huge — get out there, travel and learn." Munoz said looking at Hispanics as only Mexican was like looking at a rainbow in black and white. "You miss out on the beauty and richness of its different colors," Munoz said. Voter registration options abound for KU students Election Day is Nov. 7. Are you registered to vote? By Stephanie Tweto writer@kansan.com Special to the Kansan The registration deadline is Oct. 23. Students can register in Kansas if they are a United States citizen, a Kansas resident and at least 18 years old. Students are eligible to register as soon as they have moved in to a residence hall, apartment or house. All eligible students can register in person or by mail at their home county election office, at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St., or when applying for or renewing a driver's license. The application can also be printed online at www.douglascounty.com/voteapp1.htm, filled out and mailed to the Douglas County Courthouse. Out-of-state students and students who are already registered in another county have two options. They can register in Douglas County, making them eligible to vote in Lawrence on Election Day. Or they can request an advance voting ballot — known in some states as an absentee ballot — from their home county courthouse, which will allow them to vote by mail. The KU College Republicans and the KU Young Democrats plan to hold registration drives and to recruit voters on campus. "A lot of people don't know where to go, or the motivation to drive to the courthouse is not there," said Gavin Smith, College Republicans chairman and Omaha, Neb. sophomore. Smith said the College Republicans were planning a registration drive that would be held for three to four days before the Oct. 23 deadline in front of Wescoe Hall and at the Burge and Kansas unions. Smith said the goal was to get as many people registered and informed as possible and to make registering as convenient as possible. "We get a stack of cards from the courthouse and just try to encourage people to register, he said. Julie Merz, president of the Young Democrats and St. Louis senior, said the group's main focus during election time was to get people aware of and involved in the issues, elections and campaigns. She said the Young Democrats will be on campus during Hawk Week — Aug. 15-20 — to help people get registered and to recruit people interested in helping out with the Young Democrats and with the Kansas Democratic elections and campaigns. Merz also said the group planned to go door-to-door talking to voters and handing out literature that encourages people to vote. "We just want to help people get involved on any level and to facilitate that involvement in any way we can, and we want to have fun, too." Merz said. The advance voting option allows students to vote at their convenience, by mail or in person at the courthouse beginning 20 days before Nov.7. Advance voting has replaced absentee ballots, said Jo Dalquest, deputy county clerk for Douglas County. "Absentee used to be 'out of the county' technically. Now you can be in the county and if you want to vote or if you just want to avoid long lines at the polling, you can go ahead," Dalquest said. She said registration was open at the Douglas County Courthouse from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, except for the two weeks before each election when registration closes so that applications can be processed. Students who want to register in their home counties by mail should contact the county election officer at their home county courthouse for the correct form, Dalouest said. Students who have previously registered to vote but have not voted in a November general election should contact the county election officer at their county courthouse to see if they need to reregister. Dalquest said that when Douglas County voters received their confirmation of registration in the mail, information on locations where they could vote Nov. 7 would be included. Dalquest said that students living in residence halls, Stouffer Place and Jayhawker Towers would be in the precinct that votes at Allen Fieldhouse. Students living north of 15th Street likely will fall in the precinct that votes at the St. Lawrence Catholic Center location, 1631 Crescent Road, Dalquest said.

Graham turned her eyes from the group of about 20 children playing, screaming and wrestling on the playground behind the school and looked down. "Are you coming back tomorrow?" the girl asked, pushing tangled brown hair out of her blue eyes. "Of course," said Graham, Haskell Indian Nations University junior. Being appreciated is one reason Graham and more than 30 KU and Haskell students took part last spring in the after-school program in three east Lawrence schools that serve low-income neighborhoods: Central Junior High, East Heights Elementary and New York Elementary. The program focuses on building relationships and teaching social and cooperative skills to 215 students. Tina Thompson, project coordinator, said that a federal grant — the 21st Century Community Learning Center — allowed Lawrence to develop the extensive after school program in areas designated to be at-risk. According to a study by Unified School District 497, East Lawrence had characteristics of an inner city, which qualified the area for the grant. Lawrence must reapply in 2001 to continue receiving funds. At Central, students are taught subjects such as video production Web design and cultural cooking At the elementary schools, students enroll in general education classes that incorporate arts and crafts recreational and traditional subjects. Although the format varies, the focus on relationship building and social skills is the same. "We attempt to establish a relationship with the kids," said Erica Christy, a Wichita junior who volunteers at East Heights. "We try to incorporate school and fun. We might read a book, but they also learn how to take turns, how to share and how to get along." East Heights faced a special challenge because of the make-up of its student body, said site team leader, Rebecca Goodin. School district data from 1997 and 1998 showed that many East Heights students scored lower on basic achievement tests than students in other Lawrence schools. Goodin said she hoped to overcome these problems by focusing on reading and math and by enforcing the need for discipline and trust between students and teachers. "It is hard for some kids to trust people," she said. "They tend to test the after-school instructors to see if they will hang around since so many people have been in and out of their lives." Site team leader Carolyn Masinton said team teaching was an effective component of the program. "The first several weeks of the program, all of the instructors are tearing their hair out, but with the support of other team instructors, bonds grow throughout the year," Masinton said. The job becomes easier after a student instructor gains the trust of the students, site team leaders said. "The best part of the after-school program are the smiles that I get," said Thad Rawls, Pompano Beach, Fla. senior. "The kids have finally found somebody who cares about them." A student at New York, Katherine Reid, 12, said the program was beneficial. inca. "I've come since the beginning of school because it is more fun than going home," she said. "I don't get bored, and I don't get in trouble. It is definitely worth it." Site team leaders agreed that KU student instructors have been instrumental in the formation of relationships with students. A student told me that he only had two friends," said Libby Blackburn, a Wichita sophomore and East Heights instructor. "I told him that he was wrong. He had four friends: the other teacher and me."

Dog owners more careful about leash law By Lauren Lenter Special to the Kansan A Lawrence city ordinance passed last summer requires owners to leash their dogs on the University of Kansas campus and in Lawrence. Melissa Shaw, Wilmette, Ill., senior, and her dogs Tasha, a Labrador mix she bought a year and a half ago, and Jezebel, a Rottweiler she bought five months ago. Shaw enjoys taking her dogs to Potter Lake, where she and other owners let their dogs play in the water. their dogs off leashes to swim in the lake, they should be more careful about controlling their pets. "It was like a whole other subculture." Shaw said. "If you weren't down there, people would wonder." people would wonder. Although owners probably still can let "Things are different now for dogs and their friends," said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the University of Kansas Public Safety Office, which enforces the city ordinance on the KU campus. Bailey said public safety officers are not out to give tickets to every violator. But they do want students to leash their dogs. If officers see a dog that is not leashed, they will give the dog's owner a flyer that explains the law. A $30 fine is enforced for first-time offenders of the law. A second offense within 12 months carries a $40 fine, a third offense with a year a $60 fine and a fourth offense a $100 fine. If an owner does not pick up their dog's waste, he or she can be fined $10. From August 1999 to May 2000, police issued seven unleashed dog citations on the KU campus. This total does not include warnings. Although no animals are allowed in campus buildings, dogs that aid people who are disabled are permitted. Shaw now keeps Tasha and Jezebel leashed when she takes them to area parks. "I have a job and I'm in school and I have plenty of time to take care of them," Shaw said. "It's expensive. Half of my paychecks go to their care, but it's totally worth it."

On June 20, the Lawrence City Commission adopted an ordinance allowing the city to shut off utilities at "disorderly houses" and to require the eviction of tenants from such houses. The restrictions on disorderly houses — property on which city and state alcohol, noise and others laws are violated twice in a 365-day period require a house's owners and tenants to meet with city officials and enter an agreement to end the nuisance. The agreement may require eviction Erv Hodges of identified individuals, use of leases requiring eviction for criminal activities and improvements to the property. If the owners and tenants fall to meet with city officials or if the nuisance persists after the meeting, the Commissioner "Obviously neighborhoods are negatively impacted when the house next door is essentially an open saloon." allowing minors access to beer. The key registration proposal is also intended to curb large parties by discouraging a party's host from allowing underage drinkers access to keys. But at a June 6 City Commission meeting, that proposal was put on hold until city officials could tailor the ordinance to address several public objections. KEG REGULATION FOES ARGUE: Among the faults some retailers and distributors found with the proposal were - that it could potentially send employees to jail for a clerical error if a retailer's records were found to be inaccurate. - that customers serving alcohol to minors would simply remove the ID tag and steal the keg rather than risk the larger fine and jail time. city can prosecute the owners and tenants of the house. Penalties for violating the ordinance include fines and up to a year of probation. - that retailers would have too much power and responsibility in the application of the keg registration law. David Corliss, Lawrence's director of legal services, said the ordinance gave the city a formal legal remedy against owners who tolerate disorderly tenants. "Obviously neighborhoods are negatively impacted when the house next door is essentially an open saloon," said Commissioner Erv Hodges. "For those houses that every year have weekly parties that last until 3 or 4 in the morning, we need some way to hold those people responsible." Another proposed ordinance would require retailers to trace key sales with a customer file and key ID tags in an effort to discourage buyers from As currently drafted, the ordinance would require keg-selling retailers to maintain a file that lists each keg's ID number with the customers who have used the keg during the previous six months. Each store's file will hold signatures from keg-buying customers acknowledging that they will be held liable for minors drinking from the keg. The penalty for violating the law would be a minimum $250 fine and up to six months in jail. Tampering with the keg's ID tag would result in forfeiture of the sale's deposit. But the proposal ran into stiff opposition from state and local beverage dealers who said the law was too vague. "We appreciate this idea, but it has real problems," said Chuck Magerl, owner of Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St., echoing many retailers' concerns. "The only penalties are likely to be against (liquor) license holders." Corrliss said the city was still studying the proposal at the beginning of August. Help is nearby for sexual assault A man and woman have been drinking together at a bar. Knowing that she is drunk, he takes her home with him and they have sex. She has been raped. Bv Kate Treacy Special to the Kansan Under Kansas sexual violence law, a woman has been raped if she is too drunk to consent to intercourse. "It's never a woman's fault for getting too drunk," said Kathy Rose-Mockry, program director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. Not all sexual assault is rape by a stranger in a back alley. Many students have said 'something felt wrong but I felt I was overreacting. I felt like I was jumping to conclusions, like I was being paranoid," Rose-Mockry said. Short of sexual intercourse, assault includes things like the unwanted touching of another persons intimate parts for the purpose of sexual arousal, she said. Many community organizations provide services to victims of rape and sexual assault, as well as preventative education. WHERE TO GO FOR HELP Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins deals with questions and concerns about assault several times a semester. He said Watkins should be considered a resource for students on several levels. The center gives assault awareness presentations during orientation and provides peer advising as part of its continuing education program. Rock also said students , think they might have been assaulted or slipped a date-rape drug should go to Watkins as soon as possible. "As soon as there is a question, one should present it," he said. "We're here to answer questions. The clock is ticking once you ask that question and you don't need to wait alone." Watkins has been staffed with three physicians who have sensitivity training for assault victims and deal with most assaults, Rock said. He also said that the examination and evaluation after a sexual assault was covered by University health care. Rock said Watkins also referred victims to Counseling and Psychological Services on the second floor of Watkins. Watkins has a supply of clothes for victims whose clothing is needed as evidence. The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, Room 22 Strong Hall: 864-3552 The KU Public Safety Office: 864-5900 or 911. Watkins Memorial Health Center: 864-9500.

Watkins would make accommodations for testing for sexually transmitted diseases and offered treatment to minimize exposure. Watkins also offered a morning-after contraceptive. The hours at Watkins are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday; 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday; and 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday. "We may be more appropriate for a first choice financially and the medical records and experience are kept confidential." Douglas County Rape Victim-Survivor Services provides a 24-hour confidential hotline for survivors of sexual assault, rape and sexual harassment. Service advocates will accompany victims to the hospital, police station or court. They also explain legal options and provide emotional support. Sarah Jane Russell, executive director, said more than half of those seen by the services are college-aged students with a high percentage of freshmen and sophomores. Those incidents are usually date and acquaintance rape and generally involve alcohol, she said. "Students need to know that someone will always be there to help," Russell said. The KU Public Safety Office provides trained officers to assist on-campus victims of sexual assault in reporting a crime, which enables the police to undertake a criminal investigation. The Lawrence Police Department also provides trained officers to help victims of rape and sexual assault report the crime. The Lawrence police accepts anonymous reports and information, but legal action can't be taken until a formal report is filed. "You don't want to wait to report because if you wait a lot of that information will be lost," Detective Catherine Born said. Born heads the crimes against persons unit at the police department. She is paged anytime a victim is treated within 72 hours of the crime at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine St. The Police department offers free self-defense courses for women. The course is informational and focusing on self-awareness and prevention skills, such as hat to do if approached on the street, Born said. Five or more residents can schedule a course through Born at 832-7541. Lawrence Memorial Hospital provides specialized medical care to victims seeking attention. Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners work with the Lawrence Police Department, the KU Public Safety Office, Rape Victim Survivor Services and the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. Nurses' record histories, take head-to-toe assessments, do detailed genital examinations and collect forensic evidence. Nurses are on call at the hospital 24 hours a day. A victim's privacy will be honored on request during initial questioning and medical treatment. Victims may also request to be accompanied through the medical procedures. Someone who is sexually assaulted has many options and methods of treatment and recovery, Rose-Mockry said. A victim over the age of 18 is never required to file a formal police report. "There are no set rules," Rose-Mockry said. "It is important to assess the situation and look at the resources you have." The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center provides information, support and advocacy for KU victims of sexual assault regardless of when the crime occurred. According to the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, rape and sexual assault refer to a range of specific behaviors that are predominantly directed toward women but can be directed toward men as well. All of the community service organizations listed assist women and men. FREE POOL 2-5 p.m. & 10 p.m.-2 a.m. Sun. - Thurs. Sun.-Thurs. 1/2 Price APPETIZERS 4-6 pm & 10pm-Midnight We have NTN!

Scissors Section D·Page 12 The University Daily Kansan Monday, August 21, 2000 Loungin' on the porch steps Outdoor pastime goes way of dinosaur By Jim O'Malley editor@kanson.com Kansan co-editor Before there was air conditioning, there were front porches. Front porches are common in Lawrence's older neighborhoods but are scarce in newer ones. They developed as a way for people to cope with hot summer weather before air conditioning, said Dennis Enslinger, historic resources adviser to the City of Lawrence. Enslinger said porches were in the front of older houses because it was cooler there. "Kitchens were in the rear, and wood stoves were on all day," he said. And back yards were work spaces. People hung laundry, planted vegetable gardens,' and killed and plucked chickens there, so they weren't the most pleasant places to sit and relax, he said. Cathy Amber, assistant director of historic preservation for the Kansas State Historical Society, said people used to sleep on their porches in hot weather. Her grandfather and grandmother practically lived on their front porch during the summertime. She said she still sees a lot of porches used in Lawrence during summer. Dennis Domer, professor of architecture at the University of Kentucky and former KU associ- dean of architecture, said that front porches became popular about 1850. Few houses had front porches before then, but after that, there were hardly any houses built without porches until the mid-20th century. Front porches first developed in the Caribbean islands, where the climate is hot and humid, Domer said. Cultural influences on the development of the porch included Spanish, West African, French and Caribbean island native. Inside and outside Health concerns also made porches popular, Domer said. In the Victorian era, people believed fresh air was important for good health. It was a common belief that it was unhealthy to breathe any air someone had breathed before. Fear of tuberculosis also made sleeping porches on the backs of houses popular from 1910 to 1925. Victorians also believed it was important to connect to nature, and that belief was reflected in the architecture of the time. Porches were transitional spaces between indoors and outdoors. Domer said. Earlier Colonial and Federalist-era houses tended to shut nature out. Private and public "In my 1839 row house, the outdoors is very much closed off," Domer said. Front porches also had a social function. They were a transitional space between private living space and the community, Ambler said. Front porches didn't develop in a lot of European cities, where there aren't front lawns and the living spaces of houses are above street level, she said. The ground floor is often a service area and might have a small courtyard. Without the buffer zone of a front lawn, porches aren't an effective transition between public and private. SUNDAY NEWS Rules of porch etiquette developed in the United States, Ambler said. There were rules for when neighbors could go beyond stopping on the sidewalk and chatting to coming up and visiting on the porch. Juilan Dahl, Lawrence resident reads a newspaper on his front porch and relaxes. As he does most nights, Dahl spent Tuesday evening on his porch. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN Susie McCarthy and her family spend a lot of time on the front porch of their house in Old West Lawrence, the neighborhood of old houses just west of downtown between Sixth and Ninth Streets. She said she enjoyed being outside but having all the comforts of home. "And it's a good way to watch the world go by and see what's going on in the neighborhood," McCarthy said. "You can still feel like you're part of the neighborhood. The porch was a big selling point when we bought the house." The Decline and Fall of the Front Porch "It's just a genuflection that helps everyone remember Few real front porches are built today. Domer said. Many new houses have a vestigial front porch — a tiny roof over the front steps. there's a front door, but it's hardly ever used," Domer said. The prevalence of backyard decks and patios today reflects a very different world view than front porches, Domer said. The rise of the backyard reflects the elimination of formality and the rise of leisure and privacy. But with that comes a loss of community. "Modern Americans have turned their backs on community and stay inside and turn on the TV." Domer said. Harvard political scientistt Robert Putnam has described this modern disengagement from community life in his book. Bowling Alone. "There is probably a connec- Enslinger said privacy fences, a relatively new trend, also reflect a withdrawal from the street and from engagement with the community. The rise of the automobile also contributed to the decline of front porches, Enslinger said. People don't want a social space on a street with a lot of automobile traffic; they want to withdraw from it. And attached garages make it possible for people to enter and leave their houses without ever stepping outside. But he said there was a resurgence of interest in front porches and that some houses were being built with them now. Ambler said the architecture of houses can say a lot about the people who live in them. "When you don't have air conditioning and television," she said, "you're more outwardly focused." Where they exist, front porches still have their special pleasures. McCarthy said she and her family like to sit out on their porch and read. "And it's great to listen to a thunderstorm from the front porch," she said.

John Tyburski, Lecompton graduate student, is known as the "Trail Monger" to many Kansas mountain bikers. Tyburski is the mastermind behind the Trail Monger Web site, dedicated to providing in-depth information to mountain bikers in Kansas and surrounding areas. "As a mountain biker, you hear about various trails around the area, but it's hard to get the specifies," Tyburski said. "I live for riding new terrain that can be accessed in an afternoon or on an overnight trip. Before I created this site, there was no resource for area cyclists to find nearby destinations, so I changed that." The site lists 39 trails located throughout the state and in Kansas City, Mo. Each listing gives a description, directions and conditions reports. Jen Dziuveni, Tampa, Fla., junior, checks the site at least once a month. "The site provides the most extensive list of trails around the Lawrence area that I have seen," Dziuvenis said. "It provides information about the difficulty and hazards associated with each trail, as well as directions to the closest bike shop and local brewer." In addition to the trails listed on the site, there also are tips about bike repair and maintenance, volunteer information, local biking news and events and mountain biking rules. "I can't believe how much time he puts into this site," said Brock Ainsworth, Overland Park senior. "You can find almost anything you need to know about biking in Kansas." Tyburski estimates that about 3,000 people have visited his site. Tyburski said there were several drawbacks to authoring a Web site. "I have been out riding the local trails several times when other riders say, 'Hey, are you the Trail Monger?' I've seen your Web site," he said. "It is very gratifying because I find out that, even though I have a small audience, people are finding and benefiting from the site." "You become somewhat responsible for what people do with the information you provide," he said. "You have to be really careful about legality and accuracy, or you will get complaints." Some visitors expect more than you are capable of providing, he said. "They do not always realize that the site is just your hobby and that you simply cannot dedicate the time necessary for comprehensive and up-to-date material," he said. The need for a Kansas mountain biking guide gave him an excuse to make a Web page, he said. "The opportunity provided a reason to add more than just another goofy personal home page about Frisbee-chasing dogs and Mountain Dew." he said. dogs and Mountain Bears On the Net: Trail Monger Web site: http://falcon.cc.ukans.edu/~tyburski/TrailMonger/TMCore.html Edited by Mindie Miller Eclectic bookstores abound in Lawrence THE BUSY BOOKSHELF IN A NORTHWEST WARE AND EMERGENCY By Karen Lucas writer @kansan.com writer @kansan.com Kansan staff writer Downtown Lawrence offers a slew of bookstores that cater to mystery lovers, popular fiction buffs, antiquarian book collectors, scholars and many others. The Dusty Bookshelf, 708 Massachusetts, St., is one of several downtown Lawrence bookstores. As the name suggests, store sells used books, iPhoto by Aaron Lindbera/KANSAN The Raven, 8 E. Seventh St., specializes in mysteries, fiction, Kansas history and other regional books. Pat Kehde, co-owner of The Raven, said her stock included imported British mysteries that were difficult to find as well as some out-of-print and used mystery and fiction titles. The rest of the shop sells books on subjects ranging from biographies to cooking. Handwritten staff recommendations adorn the shop shelves. A recommendation in the fiction section, for example, says: "Nothing but Blue Skies by Thomas McGuane chronicles Frank Copenhaver's mid-life descent from successful businessman to town kook. He steals cars, chases women and says things you've only ever dreamed about saying to other people. Read this funny book." On a recent Saturday morning, Bud Hirsch, associate professor of English, browsed at The Raven. "it's relaxing. It's fun to buy here," he said. Less than a block away from The Raven is downtown Lawrence's newest and largest bookstore, Borders Books, Music & Cafe, 700 New Hampshire St. With more than 200,000 titles, the store offers new books as well as magazines, newspapers, CDs, videos and DVDs. "One of our strengths is that we offer such a broad selection of things," said Lisa Bakke, Borders manager. "You can get the latest CD you've been looking for, and you can pick up a book that you've discussed in a class recently and take it to the cafe." Another newcomer to the downtown booksellers is The Children's Part of the store --including its cafe and offices -- is housed in what used to be a livery stable. The cafe, which displays works by local artists, often is crowded with students, especially during final exam periods. "We want our store to be a place that's welcoming, whether it's students studying or people browsing." Bakke said. In addition to its collection of children's books, the store's merchandise includes bulletin boards, workbooks and other materials for teaching. Parents also can bring their children to the store for story readings and author book signings. Emily Seaton, employee at The Children's Book' Shop and Manhattan senior, said she enjoyed working at the shop. "A lot of the people I work with are teachers or former teachers," she said. "We all really like what we're doing here. It's relaxing even when we're packed." "It's a good place to find low-priced books for classes," said Tanessa The Dusty Bookshelf 708 Massachusetts St. sells books in many areas from literature to computer science -- which are stacked on shelves and also in piles on the floor and elsewhere. Strotkamp, manager of The Dusty Bookshelf. Customers also can trade their books in or sell them for cash. Strokamp said the store got a lot of books from students. Cat lovers will enjoy visiting The Dusty Bookshelf as well. Alice, a gray tabby, is the shop's cat-in-residence. "The cat lends something to the store, more of the feeling of being in someone's library than in a store," said Sarah Hill. Hutchinson junior. Hill also enjoys shopping at Vagabond Bookman, 1113 Massachusetts St. "It's neat," she said. "It's got more of the older books. It's much more of a collector's atmosphere." Among the store's 20,000 titles are early editions of Baedeker travel guides as well as six books signed by William Burroughs, the Beat writer who lived in Lawrence until his death in 1997. "I hunt the nation for rarer, more collectible items," said Howard Hartog, owner of Vagabond Bookman. Besides books, Hartog also collects vintage single-speed cruiser bikes, some of which are on display in the store. Several blocks from downtown Lawrence is J. Hood Booksellers, 1401 Massachusetts. The store, owned by two KU alumni -- John and Gloria Hood, has 90,000 used scholarly books. browsers wandering through the shop's many aisles of 10-foot-high 'shelves will find titles in such specialized areas as museums, Eastern literature and earth sciences. "It's all well-organized by subject and then by author," Gloria Hood said. While the store is open to visitors six days a week, she said it did as much as 80 percent of its business on the Internet.

Local business owners, such as Win Campbell, have been closing their doors at an alarming rate this year. Small-business owners, long-time residents and members of the KU community fear the recent boom in development both downtown and on the outskirts of town will ruin Lawrence's college town atmosphere. There are some who say expansion projects like "Downtown 2000" are beneficial for the city, but others believe Lawrence is losing its uniqueness with each day. "I think the character of the town has changed," said Kurt Thurmaier, associate professor of public administration. "It's looking more and more like any other town. There seems to be disjunction between the people who live here and sleep here. The town is starting to have two faces." Lawrence has seen a substantial 2.3 percent a year increase in population since 1990, which has caused nervousness among area residents and independent business owners. Campbell, who now owns the Winfield House, a furniture store at 835 Massachusetts St., recently closed his previous downtown establishment. Campbell's Clothing, after 35 years of business. He says it's tough for small businesses to survive downtown. "The economic atmosphere downtown has made it difficult for independents like myself to succeed in Lawrence," Campbell said. "The area is healthy right now, but I would not recommend that any independent retailers move their business here." Campbell said he thought that development projects in the South Iowa Street area initially hurt business downtown but that most places have adjusted to the growth. "What has happened in Lawrence hasn't been enough to derail the city's economic stability," he said. "However, it has really divided the economic pie." Earl Reineman, vice president of Weaver's Department Store, 901 Massachusetts St., said his clothing store had changed to stay competitive in the downtown retail market. Weaver's has been open downtown since 1857. "The growth in Lawrence has caused us to gradually upscale our selection," Reinman said. "We no longer try to be all things to all people." Even though some local business owners dislike the recent increase in national retailers starting businesses downtown, Brian Paley, store manager at Abercrombie & Fitch, 647 Massachusetts St., thinks it's an advantage. "I think we have supportable growth," said Jim Henry, Lawrence The downtown area is growing and expanding, primarily due to the interest of large national retailers. The Gap and Abercrombie & Fitch came to town while other retailers, including Eddie Bauer and American Eagle, prepare to enter. mayor, "To some extent, all of the growth is enhancing the city." "The bigger chain stores bring in more traffic into the downtown area," Paley said. "Companies like Abercrombie are helping the area. It is a lot better for small downtown businesses that we are where we are rather than someplace in south Lawrence." 1205 Retail growth on the 900 block of New Hampshire Street, along Massachusetts Street, and South Iowa Street gets mixed reactions from businesses and residents. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN. The biggest new project beginning in Lawrence is "Downtown 2000." It is a planned redevelopment of almost the entire 900 block of New Hampshire Street. The idea is to make New Hampshire Street similar to Massachusetts Street. The estimated $29 million plan is the largest mixed-use project in downtown since 1863, when Lawrence started rebuilding after Quarill's Raid. New Hampshire 900 "This project ranks right up there as one of the largest ever in Lawrence," said Jeff Schmalberg, "Downtown 2000" lead partner. "If the downtown remained static, then it couldn't compete, but we're lucky there are so many people that care about this area." The "Downtown 2000" project will create a complex of up to 20 street-level retail stores, several professional office spaces, 24 loft-style apartments, a new Lawrence Arts Center and a four-level parking garage with about 540 spaces. we just weren't ambitious enough," Campbell said. "We really weren't doing that badly, but we also weren't changing with the times." While some local business owners are concerned about the closing of places like Campbell's Clothing, Bottenfield said downtown was thriving. Jerry Bottenfield, executive director of Downtown Lawrence Inc., said the project would fulfill the city's needs. He said there were more people than ever coming from Kansas City and Topeka to shop downtown. "A lot of our retailers say that half of their business comes from out-of-towners," Bottenfield said. "We've become a day trip for some people who are looking for a small-town shopping experience." All the growth downtown hasn't been without its victims. Chet Johnson Furniture, formerly at 722 Massachusetts St., closed last year. It was replaced by Danish Inspirations Furniture and a future bistro-style restaurant. The Varsity Theater, formerly at 1013 Massachusetts St., was turned into Urban Outfitters. Also, Campbell's Clothing closed to make room for The Toy Store, a children's shop from Topeka. "Lawrence is one of the fastest growing communities in the country right now," he said. "There are thousands of other cities that would like to be where Lawrence is economically." Growth in Lawrence has not been restricted to the downtown area. South Iowa Street, where the community rejected a proposed mall in 1984 on the basis that it would draw traffic away from downtown, now is home to several large retail shops. SuperTarget, Wal-Mart, Pier 1 Imports, Kohl's, Sears and JCPenney all are located on South Iowa. Old Navy and Office Max are coming soon. "When the box stores out south moved in, it created a traffic pattern away from downtown. That caused nervousness among downtown retailers." Campbell said. "Now those stores are battling each other more than they are downtown businesses." Other areas of Lawrence also are expanding. Three major strip malls have been erected — two in west Lawrence and one in east Lawrence. Greg Cromer, executive vicepresident of American Real Estate and Investment, said the strip malls in west Lawrence were still being filled. However, a jewelry store, an appliance outlet, and the Hereford House, a Kansas City- area restaurant, already have committed to fill the space. "They wouldn't build these new shopping centers if there wasn't a need for them in this city," Cromer said. "There are so many different marketing needs. You can cater to a lot of different clientele and be very successful here." Dennis Enslinger, head of the recently formed Lawrence Design Guidelines Task Force, said the population within a mile of Sixth and Wakarusa streets has nearly doubled during the past decade. Kurt Thurmaier, KU professor. doesn't like the residential changes taking place in west Lawrence either. "people don't have porches out there," Thurmair said. "There's just not the same degree of interaction between residents in west Lawrence as there is in the old part of the city." Henry, on the other hand, said the city's growth was definitely a good thing, but he also has some concerns. "Lawrence is a popular place to live right now," he said. "However, I don't want it to become a true bedroom community."

Monday, August 21, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section D · Page 15 Students can get caffeine buzz, study in Lawrence coffeehouses By Talia Rubenstein and Heather Allison Young Special to the Kansan Not only are Lawrence coffee shops places to kick back and socialize, they serve as primary study spots for many University of Kansas students. Some coffee shops attract students because they serve food all day long. Others offer a pleasant, smoker-friendly atmosphere that serves as a getaway from the monotony of studying at home. Whatever they are looking for, any java junkie is sure to find a study niche. Break. 17 E. Seventh St. Java Break is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Coffee and food, such as sandwiches and bagels, are served around the clock. Smoking is permitted but is allowed only in one of the four, dimly lit rooms. While the hours make it a great study spot for night owls and early birds, late-night, after-the-bar crowds that come in to socialize can distract people trying to concentrate. Milton's, 920 Massachusetts St. The typically bustling atmosphere of Milton's has a reputation for attracting study groups. Functioning as a restaurant, fully stocked bar and coffee shop, Milton's attracts a variety of people coming to eat, drink, socialize and study. Some students find it unappealing as a place to study because it is open until 11 p.m. and the full-service wait staff makes it a more formal setting than most coffee shops. It is a non-smoking facility, and people looking for a place to study on the weekend may want to steer clear of Milton's because it often hosts bands on Friday and Saturday nights. Rob Baumgartner, chef, said students who come to Milton's to study were campers, because they usually didn't eat. They just sat for a few hours, drinking their coffee. Aimee's, 1025 Massachusetts St. A newcomer to Lawrence. Aimee's is located inside an antique store. Smoking is permitted and seating is limited. Its open until midnight on Mondays and closes at 7 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays. Aimee's features a happy hour from 3 to 4 p.m., when espressos are half price. It serves soups, sandwiches and salads. Almee's has been open for two months. Sarah Donegan, employee, said that the shop might expand its hours and add more tables for people to study. Classic Gourmet, 3300 W. 14th St. One of the few coffee shops not found on Massachusetts Street, Classic Gourmet offers a quiet environment for studying. Located in the strip mall on 15th and Kasold, Classic Gourmet is non-smoking and has limited seating. Baked goods are sold. From 7 and 9 p.m., all espresso drinks are half price. It is open until 10 p.m. every night. Borders, 700 New Hampshire St. Because coffee shop customers can view its books and music, Borders has the best resource library in town. Open until 11 p.m. daily, Borders offers a non-smoking study environment. It serves sandwiches and salads. Justin Howard, Liberal junior, said he liked the mellow environment of Borders. "I like studying at Borders because it is too hectic to study at home," he said. The coffee shop invites musicians to play some weekends. "The music and the people who aren't studying can both be distractions," said Chris Rathmel, Wichita, senior, and Borders employee. "Although, there's usually an unspoken contract between people who are studying that they need to be quiet." Java Dive. 10 E. 9th St. Java Dive is open until 11 p.m. during the week and midnight on the weekends. Its capacity to host a large number of people who often come in to socialize, can make it noisy in the front room. People who need a lot of silence can either study in the back room or in an enclosed room further back. Smoking is prohibited and delisstyle food is served all day long. Jared Bartels, Olathe junior, said he liked Java Dive because it was casual. "You can do your own thing without being interrupted too much," Bartels said. There also are a number of places for people to plug in their laptops. A Java Dive employee said that the computer-friendly restaurant attracts a lot of master's and Ph.D. students coming in to write papers. Henry's on Henry Street on 8th, 11 E. 8th St. Henry's is open until 2 a.m. and smoking is allowed. The building is small. Serving sandwiches and sweets, its limited seating often results in having to turn customers away. Henry's is planning on opening up a full bar above the coffee shop. La Prima Tazza, 638 Massachusetts St. La Prima Tazza is nestled between Free State Brewing Co. and Liberty Hall, away from other coffee shops and restaurants. The shop has a large selection of iced coffees to choose from, as well as the usual coffee, tea, and capuccino choices. "If you want a really strong coffee, try ice cold Snow Tiger. It's really strong," said Tina Rigdon, Lawrence junior and employee. Students like going to La Prima Tazza to study because it's small, fairly quiet, and it's non-smoking. Rigdon said she would study at the coffee shop because she liked the atmosphere and smell and it's fun to watch the activity on Massachusetts Street. La Prima Tazza opens early for anyone needing an early buzz or students who want to get an early start at studying. The shop opens at 6:30 a.m. Mondays through Saturdays and 7:30 a.m. on Sundays. The doors close at 11 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays and midnight Fridays and Saturdays. Freshmen more likely to binge drink By Melissa Davis Special to the Kansan Data shows seniors, juniors even out study of college alcohol use Freshmen. Listen up. You run the risk of becoming a binge drinker. Studies show underclassmen are more likely to be binge drinkers than other students. A new Harvard study defines binge drinking as more than five drinks in one sitting for men and more than four for women. Jannette Berkley-Patton, campaign director of the Wellness Campaign to prevent binge drinking, said that the problem with the binge-drinking definition was that it didn't define how long the student had been drinking or if the student drank on an empty stomach. Berkley-Patton added that KU statistics show that freshmen and sophomores tend to drink more than upperclassman. "Recent data shows that incoming freshmen drink at rates equal to and sometimes above the average KU student," she said. "Overall, the average student tends to drink less than our incoming freshmen." Scott Gootee, Overland Park senior, said he was a binge drinker when he was a freshman. "When I first arrived at college, I experienced a new liberation," he said. "I was finally away from my parents. And if you live with a collective amount of people in either a fraternity house or dorm, you get all excited about this new feeling of freedom. I think that one way it manifested itself was through drinking." While some students like to tell "day after" stories. Many college students don't know the dangers involved in binge drinking and how it can ruin someone's college experience. William Dixon, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that a pattern of binge drinking posed great health risks. "Alcohol irritates the esophagus, pancreas, liver and many other vital organs" he said. "It can lead to sexual dysfunction, anemia, loss of testosterone and have a direct effect on the heart and brain. If given enough exposure, other organs start to feel the effects as well." Binge drinking could have short-term effects like missed school or work, which after awhile could lead to other long-term problems, like flunking out or unemployment. Dixon said that binge drinking could also have other long-term effects. "Binge drinking could lead to dependency on the drug which could later lead to cancers of the throat, certain stomach cancers, pancreas cancer and is even directly related to breast cancer in women." There are other risks associated with binge drinking. Students are more likely to have unprotected sex, contract a sexually transmitted disease, be out of control and increase chances of injury to themselves and others. Dixon said. According to doctors and recent statistics, the higher the average number of drinks students consume per week, the lower their GPAs. Binge drinking can even affect relationships and schoolwork. Chris Parra, Overland Park, senior, that said binge drinking directly affected his academic career his freshman year. As soon as Parra began to drink responsibly, his GPA went up. "I got all Cs," he said. "That can be directly contributed to hinge drinking." "When you go out and binge drink, it's always that next day, when you can't function 100 percent because you consumed enormous amounts of alcohol the night before," he said. "Binge drinking the next day is one of the worst feelings because you really regret it. You don't do anything; you skip class and sleep until 2 in the afternoon." To prevent binge drinking, Dixon said students could do a number of things. One would be to avoid drinking games. "People will indulge if the point of game is to take as much (alcohol) as you can," Dixon said. Students can also set limits, avoid drinking on an empty stomach, and recognize patterns and situations where bingeing could occur. Dixon said binge drinking was like putting on an anesthetic mask until you die. Dixon said that if a student was aware of the consequences of binge drinking then he or she was less likely to do it. She said that impairment shouldn't be part of alcohol consumption. While Dixon said that an occasional binge didn't mean a student was an alcoholic, binge drinkers were at risk for becoming one, especially if binge drinkers drank to get drunk. Dixon said that binge drinking affects men and women and that in college, men were more at risk to be binge drinkers. KU studies show that men tend to drink more than females: two to four drinks more per sitting. The purpose of the KU Wellness campaign is to reduce binge drink by showing the fact that not all college students binge drink. According to Wellness statistics, most KU students drink in moderation. "Now, if our freshmen drank in this range we will be encouraged because at least they will be staying safe," Berkley-Patton said.

Vince Krische of the St. Lawrence Catholic Center. By Livi Regenbaum Special to the Kansan Krische said he believed religion should be an important aspect in a student's life. "The spiritual provides for us purpose and meaning in life," Krische said. "Students who become involved in religious activities grow in a positive way. Religion sets standards for students by providing them with moral guidelines to follow. They can apply these guidelines to their experiences at KU." The center, 1631 Crescent Road, is one of several religious centers that serves students. The center provides educational, spiritual and social programs. As many as 900 students are involved in 45 programs at the center. Programs include classes on teaching the faith called the Catechetical Institute. These classes equip students with knowledge The Right of Christian Initiation of Adults is another program that enables those who are curious about the Catholic faith to learn more about it. The Litururgical Music program is an important program at the center. Students learn about the church music and worship and than can participate in church services. of the faith and methods of teaching it to others. The center also participates in many community programs, such as the Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen. Students can volunteer to serve and cook food to distribute to the homeless. In the Students Mentoring Sexual Abstinence program, students teach sexual abstinence to kids in grades five through 12. "Students are always volunteering their time at the center," said Chris Berry, music associate at the center. "Spirituality is a very important part of their lives." St. Lawrence also provides programs which create an environment for friendships to develop including Sunday night dinners, Krische believes the programs have a positive impact on students' lives. barbecues, movie nights, and swing dancing. "The programming appeals to students' strengths," Krische said. "Students involved in these programs do not have a problem with alcohol or drugs." Mass is celebrated five times each weekend between 5 Saturday evening and 10 Sunday evening. The important Catholic holy days are celebrated at the center. Ash Wednesday, which marks the start of Lent, is of central importance to Catholics. "Lent is important because it is where people enter into penitential season," Krische said. "It is a holiday where people give-up something or choose something to make them a better person." The center has grown over the years, as student participation has increased. Kim Tiffany, Wichita graduate student, has been involved with the center since 1993. "My involvement in the center has increased over the years as spirituality became a more important aspect of my life," Tiffany said. "Spirituality is important because it gives me a purpose and a moral daily guide to follow." Tiffany sees the positive effects of religion on other students involved in the center. "Students who have this spirituality have a sense of comfort," Tiffany said. "They are not burdened by a lot of problems because they know God is sharing the burden with them." Troy Hinkel, director of theological education at the center, said that spirituality was increasingly becoming an important part of student's lives. "Spirituality is important to the lives of students," Hinkel said. "Pascal the mathematician once said that 'as humans we have a God-sized vacuum in our soul that only God can fill.' Everyone searches for meaning. We all desire goodness, beauty and truth. These realities go beyond our own material existence. We all desire to be happy and religion makes these desires concrete and attainable." Students share spirituality at Wharf Coffee House Bv Livi Reaenbaum Special to the Kansan The first Friday of each month, Christian students meet at the Wharf Coffee House in Christ Community Church to hear live contemporary Christian music and discuss spiritual issues. The church has recently moved to 1100 Kasold Road. "The coffee house is a place where students can hang out, drink coffee and listen to good music in a non-threatening Christian atmosphere," said Ben Mercer, co-director of the coffee house. "I hope that through this coffee house, God can be glorified." Music styles featured at the coffee house range from acoustic to alternative. The Billions, a Christian trio, played at the coffee house in July. Dan Billen, vocalist for The Billions, said he likes to play at the Wharf. "I am in a setting where people actually listen to the music," Billen said. "it is an environment which is inviting." The Billions' lyrics focus on spiritual issues. Seth Swartzendruber, another independent Christian musician who played at the Wharf, said the coffee house had a positive impact on students and promoted Christian music "My songs deal with pain, but in the midst of that pain, I have the hope that Jesus Christ offers," he said. "The Wharf is a great place because it provides a venue for Christian bands. It is an edifying atmosphere." Students also appreciate the coffee house as a place to discuss spiritual issues with others who have similar interests. Ameisha Tubbs, Lawrence senior, has been a coffee house patron the past year. "I like this coffee house because it is a place to come and hang out with other Christians," Tubbs said. "It is a place where I can let down my guard." Tubbs said she believed students were turning to their faith for support and guidance. "I see students around me having personal relationships with Jesus," she said. "I think it is important for students because it makes living easier. They know where they will spend their eternal salvation." Randall Jennings, Baxter Springs senior, has been a staff volunteer with the coffee house for two years. He said volunteering was important to him because it allowed him to make a difference in the lives of others "Faith provides purpose and meaning in life," Jennings said. "If there is not a heaven, then there is no real reason to live. I think students here are interested in spiritual issues. People often think about the meaning of life." Jennings said the coffee house could change the stereotypical view that some people have of Christians. "I hope that with this coffee house, we can tear down some stereotypes of Christians being brimstone Bible-beaters, and have them realize that real Christians are caring individuals," he said. "Everyone is welcome to come." Evan Morris, co-director of the Wharf Coffee House, agreed that spirituality was an important aspect of college life. "College is a turning point, and it is a time when students discover who they are in terms of relationships, responsibility and a higher power." Morris said. "The Wharf accepts everyone who walks in this door. We hope to share God's love with others." The Wharf Coffee House opens the first Friday of every month at 8:29 p.m. Admission is free. A cup of coffee costs $1 and refills are free. Free and Easy Living Guaranteed in Your.. Sugartown CONFIDENTIAL Free and Easy Living Guaranteed in Your... Sugartown CONFIDENTIAL Questions? Comments?

By Livi Regenbaum Special to the Kansan together. Susan Shafer-Landau, executive director of Hillel, said that Hillel served many purposes. "Hillel is a place for Jewish students to get together whether it be for spiritual, cultural, or social needs," Shafer-Landau said. "It also provides educational and leadership opportunities for Jewish students." As many as 300 students attend events that the organization sponsors. But Shafer-Landau hopes that more students will become involved in Hillel. "Hiliel is not merely a synagogue on campus," she said. "It is also a community and resource center." Will Hiliel, director of out-of- KU's Hillel chapter — part of an international organization founded in the 1930s— is at 940 Mississippi St. and is open to all students for activities or as a place to hang out. Activities range from monthly film nights to discussion groups about issues pertaining to Jewish life. Ilana Reichman, Boca Raton, Fla. senlor, finds Hillel to be a unique and friendly place. "I enjoy Hillel because it is one of the only places on campus where one can feel comfortable with their peers," said Reichman, who has been involved with Hillel for a year. "With the lack of Judaism on campus, Hillel makes me feel more comfortable because it allows me to be in an environment where I can interact with other Jews. I also find the discussion groups to be interesting." Reichman helped coordinate Shabbat dinners, held on the first Friday of every month for students to come together for a meal and draver. Sarah Shik, president of Hillel and Overland Park senior, said there was a vital need for a Jewish organization on campus. opportunity Hiliel also provides community programs, such as serving food to the homeless at the Jubilee Cafe. Hillel's programs include Birth Right Israel, which gives students who have never been to Israel the opportunity to go. "Everyone needs a place where they can express themselves in a welcoming environment," Shik said. "Hillel provides an open, encouraging environment where one can share in Jewish cultural ties with the other." Hillel offers introductory classes on Jewish beliefs for those who want to learn more about Jewish faith and works with the Lawrence Jewish Community Center in planning high holiday services. Edited by Ben Embry Fuel hike affects travel plans Rv Justin Pierce Special to the Kansan Students interested in traveling over spring break should research destinations well and early, said Dorothy Pogge, Carlson-Wagonlit Travel manager, 800 Massachusetts St. Increased fuel costs are forcing airlines to raise prices for popular student destinations even where a large number of students allow travel agencies to get bulk rates. Pogge said the most popular student destinations were generally Mexico, Florida and the Caribbean. "Generally we can offer students good rates going to these destinations, but this year fuel costs are raising prices even if you just want to go to Cancun," she said. "When the airfare price lists for spring come out, we do expect increases somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 percent." Jason Allen, Leawood senior, made plans for his annual trip to the Florida Keys, and said there was a significant increase in the price of his ticket. And travel agents warn that if students wait too long, tickets will only get pricier. Farn Murphy, independ- "I got that ticket even earlier this year, and it cost me a lot," Allen said. "I paid a little over a hundred dollars more than I usually do." dent travel agent, said she doesn't have a positive outlook for airfares in the near future. "Students waiting to make plans, or waiting for airfares to go down are going to feel it in their checkbook come spring if they still want to travel," she said. "Airfares don't appear to be getting any cheaper anytime soon." But there are ways students can save a little money when it comes time to buy that spring break ticket. Pogge said timing was everything. "If you can be flexible on departures and returns, you will save money," Pogge said. "If you can leave early, or come back two to three days early, or sometimes if you are willing to spend a few extra hours flying and reroute through other cities you can save money." Harriet Matthews, owner of River City Travel Co., 3300 W. 15th St., suggested other ways to save money this spring. "If you leave from St. Louis, where there are lots of charter flights to popular destinations, or a bigger city like Denver or Dallas with more departures, then you can save some cash," Matthews said. "But really just book as soon as possible, and try using a package that bundles hotel and other accommodations with airfare to cut costs."

Rowe Associated Press Writer NEW YORK — Get him off his steed and out of his redcoat, and the summer movie season's most cold-hearted villain comes across as the world's nicest guy. 744 Mass. 832-8228 During a conversation, he's sweet, solicitous and speaks softly — about how it's been too long since he visited his parents, how he alienated his longtime girlfriend, and how when it comes to dividing the world between the bullies and the bullied he most assuredly is among the latter. Jason Isaacs plays the baddest of the bad in *The Patriot*, British Col. William Tavington, who has enemy wounded shot and townspeople immolated in a burning church. Even pans of Mel Gibson's Revolutionary War-era action film praised Isaacs. “It’s the best part in the film as far as I'm concerned,” he says more seriously, giving credit to screenwriter Robert Rodat, who also wrote Saving Private Ryan. “It’s all in the writing. So it doesn't go to my head at all.” A movie is only as good as its villain, he notes, because the hero, particularly one played by Gibson, has a certain invulnerability; you have to give him a challenge — raise a little doubt that he might fall. Isaacs frets that his logrolling comments — about how great the movie is, how great it was to work on it, how delightful working with the actors and director was — are going to sound every bit as phony as when others utter them. "It's strange to find myself saying the kinds of things that I read other actors say in interviews, and I know they don't mean it, and I do, and I don't quite know how to express the fact that I mean it." "Tarleton, as opposed to Tavington, was so successful in all of his campaigns — he was a fantastically successful soldier — very often outnumbered 5-to-1, 10-to-1, which told me something. It told me he had a kind of mad death wish. He would ride into battles that he really shouldn't be riding into, and win them." To Isaacs, it also helped explain how his character might cross the threshold and commit atrocities. Tavington is loosely based on the real-life Col. Banestre Tarleton, and studying him helped Isaacs avoid stepping over into cartoon villainy. "He's a man trying to win the war ... And anytime that you get involved in the kind of moral chaos that war is you flick a switch in your head and the enemy is subhuman, and when the enemy is subhuman you can do anything. And like he says in the film, "The honor is found in the end, not the means." But Isaacs would disagree with someone who says his character personifies unadulterated evil. "You see him humiliated by his boss. You see him well up with tears." Historians say there's no evidence that Tarleton was involved in infanticide or incidents such as the church arson and murders, and the savagery of Isaacs' character has drawn complaints, especially in Britain. "You know there are all sorts of glorious, gallant war heroes in America and England whose deeds don't bear too close a scrutiny," he says, citing the example of Arthur "Bomber" Harris, who directed the bombing of Dresden during World War II. "If you ask the residents of Dresden how much of a war hero he is, you have a very different story." While his villainous roles have been most memorable, Isaacs says he's played a broader range of parts than people have noticed. "In Armageddon I was the smartest man on the planet. I saved the entire world. I came up with the plan to blow up the asteroid from the inside. No one gave me a thank-you. Not so much as a phone call, or a bunch of flowers," he jokes. "You go out and slaughter whole villages, and suddenly you get a lot of attention." Isaacs played a priest in The End of the Affair and you can see him as a drag queen in his next movie, Sweet November. His other film includes Soldier. He just wrapped his latest film, which co-stars Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron. "Just hung up my high heels and my bra," he says, drvly. After learning how to load and fire muskets and to ride a horse, he says he had to learn entirely new skills for Sweet November: "It's impossible to pull your pantyhose up with long false nails on. I had to go to the bathroom and I sometimes called for help to be able to pull my pantyhose up. It was very embarrassing." Meanwhile, he says his girlfriend of 12-1/2 years — documentarian Emma Hewitt — is repelled by his shaved chest and underarms and won't go near him.

Luke Axtell might be singing the blues. After visiting a recording studio and recording his first compact disc, a country album titled The River Runs Dry, Axtell, Austin, Texas, junior, hit a bump in the road. The NCAA stepped in citing a rules violation, forcing the young musician and Kansas basketball player to pull his albums from the shelves until after the season, when his NCAA eligibility expires. P NCAA rule number 12-5-1s says "continuation of modeling and non-athletically related promotional activities" denies student-athletes the right to promote products of any sort, including their own non-sports related products. Axtell: music careen puton hold by NCAA rules Essentially, the rule is in place because the NCAA is afraid that any sort of profit made by the student-athlete may be related to their status as an athlete at their respective university. Axtell's CD has been sold from his Web site, www.lukaexell.com, for $12.99, but sales officially stopped at midnight last night to comply with NCAA demands. The Web site focuses on his family life and the production of his album. Axtell was allowed to sell his CD in the summer because the NCAA misunderstood that the CD was an individual release, but the CD will become available again following the NCAA Tournament. Then, the door opens again for album sales. "I think that it's a horrifying thought as an artist to go through the process and then be told that you can not do this," said Brooke Axtell, Luke's sister. Actually, Axtell's CD can be sold during the school year if his picture and name are removed from the album cover. The only other way to continue sales during the season is to challenge the NCAA rule in court, an option family members said they would not pursue. Brooke Axtell also recorded a CD, *Paper Doll*, over the summer. Both had scheduled a promotional signing at Hastings, 1909 W. 23rd St., from 5 to 7 p.m. on Saturday. Although Luke will not appear, Brooke still plans to be there and deliver an in-store performance. The only time the University of Kansas is mentioned is to announce he has played his songs twice at Allen Fieldhouse. "Regardless of the argument a student-athlete might make about the popularity or success of a nonatletic venture ... the NCAA will argue part of the success of the venture is based on the notority of the student-athlete." KU compliance director Janelle Martin told the Laurence Journal-World. "I'm really excited to return (to Lawrence) because I used to be a student at Kansas and I have a heart for a lot of the souls up there," she said. - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Accused player transfers tries out at Garden City By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter While one accused KU football player remains a possible starter this year after an alleged assault on a KU soccer player last February, the other has found a fresh start. The player has transferred to Garden City Community College, where he is walking on to the football team. There is no guarantee of a roster spot, said Bob Larson, Garden City coach, but they will give him a chance. The player could not be reached for comment, but Larson said he was familiar with the player's tumultuous history at Kansas, which included academic probation for the season. Larson declined to make that an issue until formal charges were pressed. The school paper ran a scathing editor- player outside the Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St. Since the police report was made public, Athletics Director Bob Frederick and KU football coach Terry Allen have apologized for their handling of the situation. "He was dismissed from school for academic reasons and could have appealed for reinstatement," Allen said in a written statement Aug. 10. Allen did not renew the scholarship of the player, but he had already been dismissed from the University for poor grades before heading to Garden City. "He's done everything right to be here." "He went to summer school here and passed the required courses needed to play," Larson said. "He's done everything right to be here. If this is just an academics issue, there are plenty of kids who make mistakes and goof around their freshman year. The other player, still in good academic standing, remains at the University and is on probation in KU's football team. His status is ail upon the player's arrival, saying the school "accepted anyone." Larson said he has had no direct problems with the player so far, as Lawrence police continue to investigate. On Feb. 27, two football players allegedly assaulted a Kansas soccer "But if you're suspended for that reason for an entire season, what are you going to do? Go somewhere and pump gas, or go and play football somewhere." Bob Larson Garden City Community College football coach pending the results of the Lawrence Police Department's investigation. If the player who transferred to Garden City is formally charged, he faces a "longterm" suspension by Garden City city rules. "I only get so many out-of-state players, and I am deciding that right now," he said. "And I've got guys with bruises, guys with sprains and a guy who might be charged with assault." Larson admitted the player could be a liability with limited scholarships available, and because the team, by NJCAA rules, is allowed only 12 out-of-state players. "The trial overrides everything," Larson said. "If it comes to be, it overrides football, school — everything." so far the former KU player has impressed on the field, Larson said, but a possible trial would send the player's trek tumbling. Students given 'survival' tips Hemenway urges students to learn in,out of class By Karen Lucas writer @kanson.com Kansas staff writer Instead of staying at home to watch the final episode of *Survitor*, a near-capacity crowd — about 1,800 people, mostly students — attended the 135th opening convocation at the Lied Center last night. "You traded that TV survivorship for an evening surviving the speeches," he said. In his convocation address, Chancellor Robert Hemenway thanked the audience for the choice it made. Hemenay also shared some survival tips with the new students. First, he said it was important for them to get acquainted with and understand their professors. "Get to know the human being in the front of the class." he said. He told students they should not take foolish chances, such as drinking and driving. Hemenway also recommended that students make the most of learning opportunities at the University of Kansas. He urged them to focus on learning inside as well as outside the classroom, by doing things such as voting, participating in a language club or writing for the newspaper. Thomas Beeisecker, chairman of the University Senate executive committee, advised students about the importance of learning and,becoming more globally focused. Ben Walker, student body president, said he envied the new students because they had a wonderful experience ahead of them. PAGE 42 "I wish I could go back and do it all over again," he said. Walker encouraged students to be active and experience new things. "Leave your mark," he said. "If you do, you'll be part of the KU family, and it will be part of you." Chancellor Robert Hemenway smiles as he acknowledges the large turnout at the convocation speech, despite the finale of TV's Survivor last night. The convocation was the 135th opening of the academic year. Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN Provost David Shulenburger mentioned various awards that would be given during the academic year, which he said gave a sense of the kinds of things that the KU community could accomplish. Before the speakers and other University representatives marched in and took their places on stage, the audience viewed a brief video, "Once a Jayhawk ..." which focused on different aspects of life at KU, including sports, Rock Chalk Revue, study abroad and waking down the hill at graduation. The video had shots from the present as well as other periods in KU history. Becky King, Iola junior, said she enjoyed the video. "It had a lot of good information, and it was entertaining," she said. This year, for the first time, Hemenway sent students an e-mail invitation to the opening convocation. "The e-mail was sent by the chancellor to every KU student that the Computer Center was able to place in one group," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor. "This was a new way to invite a broad section of the student body to opening convocation."

Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN A group of students gather to watch the two-hour finale of the CBS series Survivor. About 40 million people were expected to tune in last night. Photo by Christina Neff/KANSAN Survivor fans gather to mourn the ending of captivating series By Meghan Bainum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer No one at Rick Thomas's Survivor party got voted out or had to eat a rat. Thomas, Parkville, Mo., senior, threw the bash with his roommates — Josh Johnson, Excelsior Springs, Mo., senior, and Rick Turvey, Lawrence senior — to celebrate an obsession and to say goodbye to a familiar Wednesday-night companion. "Everyone here is a Survivor fan," Turvey said. "It's a good way for us to get together before school and see everybody — kick off the semester." Survivor is a TV show on CBS that took 16 strangers and marooned them on a deserted tropical island in the South Pacific Ocean. The castaways had to battle mosquitoes and tropical storms and sometimes resorted to eating rats and bugs. During 39 days, castaways were voted off the island until only four remained. That number was narrowed to two. With three TVs, two tiki torches, and a variety of fruity island drinks, the crowd at Thomas' apartment anxiously awaited the final vote to see who would win the cool million and the new ride.

Chino Chapa, senior communications director for the scholarship fund, said 16 KU students received a total of $32,250 last year. Nationwide, more than 4,000 scholars received more than $9.3 million in grants from the fund. The scholarship fund is the largest Hispanic organization in the nation. It has provided scholarships for 25 years to Hispanic-American students pursuing college degrees. Applications are available on the Hispanic Scholarship Fund's Web site at www.hsf.net or at the Office of Student Financial Aid, 50 Strong Hall. The deadline to apply for the scholarships is Oct.15. Leita Schultes ru senators to train at weekend seminar Student senators will get a crash course in student government Saturday at Student Senate's Leadership Training Seminar. The day-long seminar at Camp Chihowa in Perry will train senators in general Senate policies, financial policies and parliamentary procedures. Senators will also learn about Senate's standing committees and services such as the Student Legislative Awareness Board, the chief lobbying group for students; the transportation board; and the Center for Community Outreach, a group advocating volunteer opportunities for STUDENT SENATE students. Group sessions will also discuss how senators can better serve their constituents, how to use reserve account money and the results of the student survey that Senate issued in April. Marlon Marshall, student body vice president, said the main reason for the training was for senators to better understand their responsibilities. "It's a chance to get ready for the upcoming year before we actually get into it and start working," Marshall said. — Kursten Phelps Professor receives grant to spend year in Russia Gerald Mikkelson, professor of Slavic languages and literature, was recently awarded a Fulbright grant to study, teach and conduct research in St. Petersburg, Russia. Mikkelson was the 235th University of Kansas faculty member to be awarded the Fulbright since the award was established in 1946 by the Arkansas Sen. J. William Fulbright. He will be in Russia with 25 professors and 25 graduate students from across the country who were also awarded Fulbright grants. Mikkelsen said he was surprised he was chosen for the grant. "Frankly, I was not terribly optimistic about my chances, but I was very pleased when I learned I was going to be one of them," he said. This will be the third time Mikkelson has taught at St. Petersburg University, but it will be the first time he has gone to Russia as a Fulbright scholar. "Being a Fulbright scholar has a lot of advantages and opens doors that might not otherwise be open," Mikkelson said. Gerontology professor's research lands award He will live in Russia with his wife and teenage daughter during the 2000-2001 school year. Meghan Bainum Susan Kemper, professor of psychology and gerontology and senior scientist at KU's gerontology center, has been named a Roy A. Roberts distinguished professor. The award recognizes "The Language Across the Lifespan Project." in which Kemper researched the effects of aging on language and communication. Kemper, who joined the University as an assistant professor in 1978, said she was surprised and pleased about the recognition. In a written statement, Provost David Shulenburger congratulated Kemper for her achievements. "Her work in the areas of language and aging and the cognitive sciences is known and respected internationally." Shulenburger said. The professorship was established by Roy A. Roberts, a 1905 KU graduate who was a reporter, editor and eventually chairman of the board at The Kansas City Star. — Meahan Bainum KU graduate promoted to top defense position J. Jarrett Clinton, a 1964 KU graduate with a degree from the School of Medicine, has assumed the leading medical title in the U.S. Department of Defense. Clinton was promoted to acting assistant secretary of defense for health affairs. He also will continue in his position as deputy assistant secretary of defense for health operations policy, said Jim Turner, a representative for the Department of Defense. In a written statement, Secretary of Defense Secretary William S. Cohen said he was pleased to have Clinton with the Department of Defense in an expanded role. "The wealth of experience and knowledge he brings will directly enhance the Defense Department's ability to accomplish both our wartime and peacetime health missions," Cohen said. — Karen Lucas Fraternity's furniture stolen from house A baby grand piano, a couch and a wooden table were reported stolen from the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity house at 1941 Stewart Ave. last Thursday. Lawrence Police detective M.T. Brown said the house was closed for fire-code violations when one of the members entered last Thursday and noticed the items were missing. He called other house members to see if someone had moved the items to another location for storage and then reported the items stolen when he could not find any more information. The theft occurred between noon on Aug. 4 and 10 a.m. Aug. 17, and the items were valued at $13,300.

Lewinsky scandal not over yet The Associated Press up," said Rep. Charles Rangel, D.N.Y. WASHINGTON—Independent Counsel Robert Ray is signaling that the Monica Lewinsky scandal is far from over, assembling a new grand jury to investigate the president's conduct, legal sources say. "If Clinton was to drop dead, the Republicans would dig him News that the grand jury was impaneled a month ago reverberated to the other side of the country Thursday, with Democratic Party loyalists at the convention in Los Angeles decrying the story as a political-ly motivated leak designed to hurt Vice President Al Gore. The timing of the news "hours before Al Gore is to give this speech" warrants a federal investigation, said Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill. With the convention in its final day, Clinton was 3,000 miles away at the White House, where spokesman Jake Siewert pointed to prosecutors as a likely source of the leak. Ray's office denied it. The sources telling the Associated Press that a new grand jury was convened 11 in the Clinton-Lewinsky matter are outside the Independent Counsel's office. The sources spoke only on condition of anonymity. The setting up of a new Clinton-Lewinsky grand jury at the U.S. Courthouse in Washington, D.C., follows through on Ray's promise to weigh whether the president should be indicted after he steps down from office next January. A year and a half after Clinton was impeached by the House and acquitted by the Senate on a pair of 50-50 tie votes, a special panel of judges is renewing Ray's mandate for another year. The judges issued a legalistic one-sentence order Wednesday declaring that "termination of the office ... is not currently appropriate." ON THE RECORD A KU student's CD player was stolen between 10 p.m. Monday and 1:30 p.m. Tuesday from the 1100 block of Kentucky Street, Lawrence police said. The CD player was valued at $350.

Binci, Wichita junior, planned to attend classes in a wheelchair today after she suffered a broken ankle, a sprained wrist and severe bruising and scrapes in Monday night's accident. Her Honda Civic ran into a KU on Wheels bus that was crossing Iowa Street on 25th Street. Lawrence Police Detective M.T. Brown said the bus failed to yield the right of way. No citations have been issued, but the investigating officers are still reviewing the accident report. It has not yet been determined who was at fault. Binci had a flashing yellow light, and the bus had a flashing red light. Neither vehicle was carrying passengers. "As I approached the intersection and was probably 20 feet from it, a KU bus ped into the intersection from the east," Binei said. "I couldn't go to the right and couldn't go to the left because there was a bus on both sides. I didn't have time to even push on my brakes. The moment I had time to hit my brakes was practically the moment I hit the middle of the bus." Bincl's right leg was pinned, and emergency crews had to cut the driver's side door off of her car and expand the car to get her out. She is not sure why the bus was in the intersection. into section. "It seems to me they thought they could race through the intersection and beat me or that they just didn't see me," she said. "But they continued on through the intersection pretty quickly, so it makes me wonder how much they stopped. I would think the bus would need time to accelerate." Holly Krebs, KU on Wheels transportation coordinator, confirmed the bus was a KU on Wheels bus driven by a KU on Wheels bus driver. The Lawrence Bus Company did not return calls yesterday. — cured by Chris Boringer Ceci Munchini, Asuncion, Paraguay, Watkins Scholarship Hall resident, dices a bell pepper as the clock ticks.

Photos by Jamie Roper/ KANSAN CANADA Watkins women wage culinary war By BriAnne Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan senior staff writer Armed with canned peas, ground beef and other foodstuffs, the Watkins Scholarship Hall women set out to beat the Iron Chef at his own game yesterday. Selena Nelson, Linwood junior and kitchen manager at Watkins, started the competition, which mirrored the Food Network's syndicated cooking show from Japan called Iron Chef. Nelson's goal was for the women in the hall to get to know one another and feel more comfortable in their kitchens, where they will On the show, Japanese cooks compete against three master chefs called Iron Chefs. This was the first year for the competition. be cooking for the remainder of the semester "My mother came up with the idea," Nelson said. "She got the idea from cooking contests and volunteered to put together the sacks so I could participate." The women were divided up into six kitchens, given grocery sacks and were to prepare as many courses as they could in 90 minutes. Watkins residents are required to sign up to be in one of three types of kitchens in their hall: a regular kitchen, which eats together four times a week, semi-independent, which eats together twice a week; or independent, which eats together once a week. All women cook at least seven times in the regular kitchens that have themes, such as gourmet vegetarian and low-fat gourmet. R. Gourmand judges (L to R) Eric Overstreet, Maize junior, Aaron Profit, Overland Park senior, and Zora Mulligan, West Plains, Missouri, Watkins Scholarship Hall director, sample and evaluate the meals. Five teams competed for top honors at yesterday's iron Chef competition at Watkins Scholarship Hall. The winners of the contest overall were the cooks in kitchen one — the low-fat gourmet kitchen — who prepared a noodle knug, made of corkscrew pasta, walnuts, milk, brown sugar, applesauce and raisins; cornbread from a mix with canned corn and green chiles; breadsticks twisted out from canned muffins; and quesadillas. Kitchen three, the gourmet vegetarian kitchen, won the award for best use of an unusual ingredient by using canned peas to make mock guacamole. They also won best salad with a dressing made of applesauce, vinegar and cinnamon. The lone chef in kitchen six won several awards: most surprising ingredient for jalapenos in the lettuce salad; messiest kitchen; and the fire marshal award because she almost set off the fire alarm after burning most of the flour tortillas. The women said the competition was a success. "I'm so glad I'm with you guys because I have no idea how to cook," said Stephanie Bohling, Byron, Neb. freshman, from kitchen one. "I had no idea where everything was — herbs, spices, pots and pans." "We're figuring it out — what everybody knows how to do and how creative everyone is," said Katie Pretz, Osawatomie freshman. "Everything's working out. It's a bonding experience." New service forwards e-mail to alumni J. D. McKee writer@kansan.com writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer University of Kansas graduates soon will be able to keep a KU e-mail address long after they leave Lawrence. The University of Kansas Alumni Association has worked with Academic Computing Services to create an e-mail address that will never change and will forward messages to a graduate's current e-mail address. "It's a wonderful service to provide for alums," said Cathy Smith, assistant vice chancellor for information services. "It's a virtual community for alumni, and we have the unique ability to provide it." "We're winding down testing but we haven't decided when to expand," said Michael Wellman, director of special projects at the Alumni Association. The free service will eventually be offered to all KU alumni, but it is currently only available to a sample group that consists of the class of 2000. And the response has been positive. "The thing I hear from everybody is it will be a useful tool for them," Wellman said. "We're pleased to have the opportunity to work with computer services to implement this kind of service to alumn." Wellman said he had been working with Smith: to set up an infrastructure that would be capable of handling the address for the more than 160,000 graduates of KU. The alumni association is constantly looking for ideas that would benefit KU alumni, Wellman said. "We had heard other schools doing this and we approached computing services about doing it," he said. "We've been really lucky to work with them on this." The service will be available to all future graduates at the alumni Web site at http://www.kualumnl.org. - Edited by Kimberly Thompson NEW TRAFFIC FEES FOR VIOLATIONS Earlier this year, the city commission revived and determined that in order to prevent major disruptions were needed. Fees for tickets and court costs have increased. SPEED LIMIT 15 over the limit $87.50 $77.50 SPEED LIMIT 20 over the limit $72.50 $97.50 NO PARKING no parking to corner $10.00 $20.00 violation of signals $87.50 $77.50 OTHER RISES TO FINES AND FEES: DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT DRIVERS' LICENSE REINSTATEMENT PROCESSING FEED The ordinance would raise the fine for these offenses from the current amount of $15.00 to $20.00. All other traffic violations would be raised to a fine of $50.00. DIVERSION APPLICATION FEE DRIVERS LICENSE REINSTATEMENT PROCESSING FEE The ordinance includes a provision establishing a driver's license reinstatement processing fee of $25.00. This City fee would be in addition to fees collected by the state. City court personal have several processing responsibilities for DL reinstatements, and a local fee is appropriate. While not included in the ordinance, this application fee would increase to $30.00 from the current $25.00 fee, effective Oct. Source: Memo from David Corliss, Assistant City Manager Melissa Carr/KANSAN City increases fines for parking, speeding other traffic violations By Matt Merkel-Hess and Rob Pazell writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writers Lead-footed drivers should pay more beginning Oct. 1 after the city commission raised fines and court costs for speeding, parking and other traffic violations at Tuesday's meeting. The raise in fines, the first since the late 1980s, put Lawrence on a level comparable to other cities in the area. Included are violating a traffic control signal and speeding 15 miles per hour above the speed limit, raised from $57.50 to $77.50, speeding 20 miles per hour above the speed limit, raised from $72.50 to $97.50, and posted no parking to corner, raised from $10 to $20. All other traffic violations will be raised to $50. Also raised were the defective equipment fee from $15 to $20 and diversion application fee from $25 to $30. Downtown parking violations will remain $2. Fines for speeding on campus are the same as fines off campus. Jurisdiction of University of Kansas police officers extends from all KU property plus all streets connected to KU property, according to the KU Public Safety Office. But KU Police always have the power to enforce laws even if the offense occurs off campus. Dave Corliss, assistant city manager, said the fines were raised to the median of similar cities. "We don't want to do this too often." he said. Mayor Jim Henry said increasing the fines was a good thing because of problems with speeding and traffic violations in Lawrence. VARIOUS CAMPUS FINES Moving Violations: - Running a stop sign: $35 plus $22.50 court costs Broken headlight, turn signal: $15.00 plus $22.50 court cost Parking Unpaid parking meter: $5 Parking in an invalid lot: $20 In other action: "There is far too much red light running," Henry said. "And it seems that the yellow light is a signal to step on the gas." - The commission approved the distribution of alcohol tax money. The state imposes a 10 percent tax on alcohol sales, of which the city receives 70 percent. Last year, Lawrence received $1,104,590 from alcohol taxes. The money was divided up among 14 different organizations with 60 percent going toward prevention, 20 percent to treatment, 10 percent to intervention and 10 percent to coordination. The University received $20,000 for organizations and activities. The commission approved a $725,000 increase in the budget for the new Lawrence Arts Center, raising the city commitment to $4.35 million. Members also authorized an expenditure of $790,000 for land purchase and exchange of city land to create the site for the center on the 900 block of New Hampshire St. The land exchange should be completed soon and digging could begin in three weeks. There will be no commission meeting next Tuesday because it is the fifth Tuesday of the month.

For those of you new to campus, the staff and Ivy now Ube. staff and I hope you'll be impressed with what you see. For those of you returning, we hope you'll be surprised. This semester, the Kansan will introduce several new features—the changes begin on this page. If you look down the page, you'll see the Free for All opinion line (864-0500), which you can use to voice your opinion on any topic anonymously. You'll also see other new features on the opinion page, such as a column every Wednesday from Erin H. Barcomb, the Kansan's first readers' representative. Her job is to represent readers' interests, find out what readers do and don't like about the paper and work with groups that have been traditionally undercovered SHAKIRA GUNNAMARTHAN Nathan Willis editor editor@kansan.com to improve coverage. Tell her what you like, what you don't and what you want to see. That's what she's here for. We created her position for the same reason we are making other changes in the Kansan this semester: We want you, our readers, to be more involved in the newspaper. To be sure, the Kansan is a good student newspaper. It has a rich tradition and is relatively well-read among college newspapers. But somewhere along the way, we have alienated some students on campus, largely by not covering stories important to their lives. Our goal this semester is to close the gap between the newspaper and its readers. We've done extensive research on readers' interests in the past few years, and now we're trying to respond to what you told us. You said you wanted entertainment. We started Jayplay, our weekly entertainment section, and now have a comic and crossword every day on the page before classifieds. You said you wanted more news about the state, the nation and the world. So we're devoting more pages to that kind of news. You said Student Senate coverage bored you. We're refocusing our coverage so we can help you understand the impact Student Senate decisions have on you rather than boring you with details of the process involved in creating legislation. You said you don't read long stories. So we're making our writing shorter and crisper. I'm sure that you have even more suggestions about how we can keep you informed. That's why we're putting greater priority on opportunities for you to express your views. The Free for All phone line and readers' representative are two examples. You'll also be able to express your opinion via polls, message boards and live chats on kansan.com. We've also added more contact information throughout the paper — such as the line at the top of this page and others throughout the paper — so it's easier for you to talk to us. We hope you do. The Kansan can be as good as you make it. After all, the Kansan isn't my paper or the staff's paper; it's yours. CRUEL FACT OF COLLEGE LIFE # 852...

Wistful, they think college slipped by in the blink of an eye. They sigh to themselves, wondering, "Wow, these four (or five or six) years went by fast." These are the students that let opportunity pass them by. How could they let this happen? Notice: Underachievers and lazy animals need not read any further. Interested in success at the University of Kansas? Read on. By the end of September, you'll develop a daily routine. Will you maxi- size opportunity and free time or squander your prime non-employed years lying on your back? Consider these possibilities: 1. The Lazy Animal Program (LAP). Too much sleeping goes on around campus. Given that the average adult needs seven to eight hours of sleep, healthy, productive people 1 Scott Kaiser columnist opinion@kanaan.com will spend about one-third of their day sleeping. But I guarantee that if you inspect a residence hall, greek house, library or any place with a modicum of space to stretch out, you'll find sleeping humans everywhere. In fact, you'd think there's a narcosephy epidemic with the amount of napping and otherwise unnecessary resting go on. If you witness a human exhibiting this type of lethargy, then you have found a candidate for the Lazy Animal Program (LAP). Don't give them your pity, but perhaps a pillow. 2. The Sleep Denrived Futility (SDF). dent is so concerned with his academic discipline that he forgets to sleep and more importantly — neglects extracurricular involvement. Often the SDF student overexerts himself to the point that his productivity plummet, falling to match the output of the lowest LAP candidate. Putting off assignments until the last minute or overstudying both cause the SDF to give up out-of-class interests or activities. 2. The Sleep Deprive Futility (SDF). This is the LAP's opposite. The SDF stu- 3. The Balanced Marathon (BM). This routine embraces the if you-want-something done then-give-it-to-a-busy-person philosophy. Balancing school, social and extracurricular is the essence of BM. The successful BM student acknowledges that it is possible to attend all classes and complete all homework by 8 p.m. With academic and other obligations satisfied, the BM candidate relaxes and parties from 10 p.m. to 1:45 a.m. with a clear conscious, his thoughts unharmed by tasks and to-do lists. The BM student has more free time because he plans on having free time. Remember, every job has a fixed amount of time that is required for superior results. With BM time management, you get free time and superior results. If you fail to plan, you will (a) sacrifice your valuable free time by stretching a three-day project into a two-week project, or (b) cramp your style and sacrifice work quality by starting too late. The BM student plans for the inevitable day of graduation as well. Book knowledge and perfect attendance do not usher him to the front of the line, but letters of recommendation do. Develop and maintain relationships with faculty and staff. The time will come soon — sooner than you think — when you will need to have two or three high-caliber letters of recommendation for an internship, job or professional school (law, medicine, etc.). It won't require kneepads; it just takes an extra minute after class to talk to your professor and ask a question or make an insightful comment.

No rules. But no oversleeping! Not unless you want to be a LAP knave. If you follow the honorable ways of the BM, your performance will be sterling. Kaiser is an Overland Park first-year law student. Editorial Zoning ordinance unfair to students Limit on number of unrelated tenants restricts students' housing options. Many University of Kansas students choose to live off-campus in houses, apartments, townhomes and condominiums with friends. Often, they do this in groups of four or more to save money on living expenses. The Lawrence City Commission is considering this change because of several concerns voiced by some residents about the partying and noise from the college students who reside there, and the decreasing number of children attending schools in some of these neighborhoods. The city of Lawrence is trying to lower that number in zones labeled as single-family neighborhoods, such as Centennial neighborhood, which surrounds the Centennial School, 2145 Louisiana St. If this ordinance were passed, no more than four unrelated individuals would be allowed to live in houses in the areas the city has designated for single families. This isn't the right answer to the problem. But college students are everywhere in this town. Lowering the number of individuals allowed to share a home is not going to decrease the noise level or the amount of partying students do. Thanks to more students moving into those areas, fewer families are choosing those neighborhoods. Granted, an environment in which many of the homes are virtually open saloons is not an environment ideal for children. Lowering the number will cause some anguish among students because they are as much a part of the Lawrence community as anyone else. Moreover, many of the houses in the "student ghetto" can hold many more than just four occupants; the housing ordinance, to some extent, would limit students' housing options and punish landlords, who wouldn't be able to market their properties to students. Maybe city commissioners should consider investing more in revitalizing these neighborhoods. That would increase their value and attract a higher caliber of inhabitants — both students and families. It also would improve some parts of town that are basically decrepit and crime-ridden. Unfortunately, it seems the city — amid rapid growth and development — is concerned more with the skyrocketing popularity of the city's outskirts. This ordinance is in the discussion phase at City Hall. And it shouldn't go any further than that.

Bullwinkles, 1344 Tennessee St., had tried to be certified as a drinking establishment — a motion the city of Lawrence refused After first ruling in favor of Bullwinkles, the city went to the Kansas Court of Appeals. The appeals court removed the order requiring the city to certify Bullwinkles. Ed Collister, attorney representing Bullwinkles of Lawrence Inc., said Joe Clausing Wichita junior "The Hawk and the Wheel are next to it and they have licenses. So Why not?" Bullwinkles had asked the Kansas Supreme Court to review the decision of the court of appeals. Bullwinkles voluntarily surrendered its alcoholic beverage license in December 1997 believing it would be able to get another license in the future. But when the bar asked for certification to be zoned as a drinking establishment in 1998 it was refused for violation of zoning ordinances. David Corliss, assistant city manager and director of legal services for Lawrence, said Bullwinkles was in a residentially zoned area and a drinking establishment license would expand its non-conforming use from residential to commercial. "The city received a favorable decision from the court of appeals," Corliss said. "We don't feel the Supreme court needs to review." Kevin Polian of Bullwinkles of Lawrence Inc., has contracted to buy Bullwinkles from the current owner, Jon Davis of Bulls Eye Inc. The contract depends on Bullwinkles winning its license. Polian described the 3-year process as brutal. "We've been mistreated the whole way," Polian said. "It's completely political." Bullwinkles has been a traditional student hangout for many years. Joe Clausing, Wichita junior, said Bullwinkles should have a license because it is near other establishments that serve alcohol. "The Hawk and the Wheel are next to it and they have licenses," Clausing said. "So why not?" Edited by Clay McCuistion Business school welcomes new deans DELL William L. Furst, dean of business, works in his office Tuesday afternoon. Furst is replacing former dean Tom Sarowski. Photo by Carrie J Julian/KANSAN By Jennifer Valadez writer@kansan.com Kanson staff writer The School of Business will begin the new academic year with two new administrators. William L. Fuerst will take over as dean and Keith Chauvin as associate dean. The two are replacing former dean Tom Sarowski and associate dean Howard Svpher. Fuerst, whose duties began July 1, said that his plans for the school were to create a highly productive environment through recruitment and retention of students and faculty. "It is a vision to be a top tier public business school," he said. "In the plan for excellence, we hope to attain that vision." Fuerst said he would achieve this plan by focusing on the range of disciplines in the school such as international programs, marketing, finance, resources and accounting. Before accepting the position at the University of Kansas, Fuerst was the associate dean for academic programs, research and information technologies at the Lowry Mays College and Graduate School of Business at Texas A&M University. He also spent part of his career in computer consulting for Price Waterhouse as a senior manager at the Dallas office. Nicky Foley, assistant to the dean, said she was confident in the qualities Fuerst would bring to the school. Chauvin also said that he was pleased with the selection of Fuerst as dean of the school. "There was a thorough search for the dean," he said. "We are fortunate to get someone of this quality." Chauvin said Fuerst was highly knowledgeable in the area of Internet business, an area being strongly driven in the business field. Prior to filling the associate dean position, Chauvin had been a part of the school's faculty for 12 years. He will coordinate and direct operations for the school's MBA program. "With the growing technology, this is an exciting time for a business school," he said. "There are new, unique challenges, and we must be able to meet the demands." Chauvin said his view for the future of his new position and the school was optimistic. Although Fuerst said he was confident in his relocation, the initial appeal was in the high standards of quality at the University. "I'm impressed with the caliber of the University," he said. "The school has a good sense as to where it's going; the students and faculty are excellent."

Today, Stoll will be sharing her experiences at the Peace Corps table in the Kansas Union From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and at the Peace Corps film show at 4 p.m. in the Walnut Room. She graduated from the University of Kansas in 1991 with a degree in journalism and began to work as a reporter. But the Peace Corps remained in the back of her mind, and after two years reporting she decided to join—and that was the beginning of a great adventure. Stole's interest in the Peace Corps grew when she studied abroad. "I did study abroad my last year at KU, and it turned me on to traveling and experiencing another culture," she said. She applied for eastern Europe, and after three months of training, was teaching English every day in Albania - in a school that had no books. And while in public, Stolle experienced what she called the "fishbowl syndrome." "It was the first time they had any non-Albanian teacher in the school, so I was the object of curiosity for a year," she said. "You get your 15 minutes of fame that last two years. It would be kind of like being a movie star here. You are constantly watched." Although she enjoyed the attention sometimes, other times she simply wanted to blend in with everyone else. "It really opened my mind culturally." Stolle said. "Living in another culture opened my eyes to the fact that there's no right way. Americans are accused of egocentrism, and rightly so, because they see America as the center of the universe. Living somewhere else gives greater perspective." That's one of Peace Corps' three objectives. The group aims to offer technical assistance in whatever the field requests, she said, as well as for their volunteers to show what American culture is like and to absorb the culture they live in. "That's easy, because after two years it becomes a part of you." Stoll said. "You want to tell everyone." You, Stolle experienced this transfer of culture firsthand. When Stolle arrived in Albania, her host family did not celebrate Christmas. When she came back to visit her family the second year, they had a Christmas tree and gifts waiting. "The custom of giving gifts on Dec. 25, they adopted just for me," she said. "They tried to adopt a little of my culture." A few months later, the Marine Corps airlifted Stollie and the 80 others in her group out of Albania because of civil unrest. Stollie said a financial scheme had duped many Albanians, and they were angry at the government for not cracking down on the organization. one moved on to serve another two-year term in Morocco after the airlift, and she is currently working in the Peace Corps' Denver Recruiting office. ps Denver Real during one Edited by Chris Borniger 'Hail to Old KU' STATE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES Friends and fellow Jayhawks participate in the singing of University of Kansas alma mater during Traditions Night at Memorial Stadium Monday.

Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN New dean to lead Graduate School By Jennifer Valadez writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Diana B. Carlin will replace former KU Graduate School dean Andrew Debicki. Carlin served as the interim assistant provost prior to her July 1 instatement as dean of graduate school and international programs. She is also a professor of communication studies. She said she would focus on the international experience, which she found key to the graduate experience. Carlin also said that part of the improvements would be to expand the variety of locations abroad for students to choose from. "Not all students are able to go abroad," Carlin said. "I want to create more opportunities for them to be able to go." we will be working with the Office of Study Abroad to find more schools," she said. Carlin said a fall workshop entitled "Preparing Future Faculty" would be available to help graduates explore reasons for pursuing their respective careers. "This is an opportunity to prepare future professionals and create more University-wide dialogue and sharing of ideas," she said. Linda Mann, graduate teaching assistant in classics, said she hoped the new dean would create and maintain respect for the graduates and keep connections open among the graduate community. "I want the dean to respect the importance of a broad, liberal educa- Carlin: wants more opportunities for students to study abroad. tion and to encourage the breadth of study for all areas," Mann said. "As a GTA, I think it is important that TAS receive recognition for their input and interaction with undergrads." Daphne Johnston, assistant dean of the graduate school, said Carlin would bring strong leadership and creative thought to the school. "This is a positive change that will enhance the programs at KU," Johnston said. "She will do many things that will raise the profile of both international and graduate studies." Anne Merydith-Wolf, project coordinator at the Office of International Programs, said she was confident in the skills and capability which Carlin will bring to the graduate program. "(She) is very energetic and has great ideas for students, faculty and the program at KU," Merydith-Wolf said. "She believes in team work and empowering people."

The University was listed in a recently published survey as one of the top ten "hot" and "trendy" schools. The 2001 edition of the Kaplan Newsweek College Catalog contains a survey of guidance counselors from both public and private high schools across the country. And the survey says that KU is a "cool place to go" because of the majors it offers, its athletics and its family tradition. Carmen Vieyra, Hutchinson sophomore, said she liked the University because students weren't afraid to be individuals. "Students here dress all different ways, but it's an expression of individuality, and that's cool." she said. Counselors surveyed for the publication noted that Lawrence was a unique college town and that the University had something for everyone. Three other Big 12 schools — Kansas State, Texas A&M and Missouri — also placed in the top ten. Kaplan listed 33 universities. The University also was cited as a school that is academically competitive, offers the best value for students' tuition dollars and has the best career services. Alan Cerveny, director of the Office of Admissions and Scholarships, said the "HOT" AND "TRENDY" SCHOOLS (Big 12 schools ranked "hot" and "trendy" by Kaplan Newsweek's College Catalog 2001.1) University of Kansas Texas A&M University reason: athletics, majors offered, "cool place to go," family tradition Kansas State University reason: "Big 12" school, football, alumni ties, academic programs, right price reason: engineering programs, athletics, tradition, "the relationships the school builds" University of Missouri-Columbia reason: academic reputation, athletics, party school *Note: Kaplan did not rank the schools in a specific order University was delighted to be included in Kaplan's latest catalog. "It's further evidence that people across the nation are noticing the great things we have to offer students at the University of Kansas," he said. The Kaplan Newsweek College Catalog reviews and rates more than 1.100 U.S. colleges and universities. The survey data were based on a pure random sample of U.S. public, private and Catholic high schools obtained from Dunn & Bradstreet. The data were divided into regional and national lists, with schools most frequently cited by the counselors appearing on the national lists. - Edited by Lori O'Toole Flu vaccine shortage means delay in dosage by Mansha Davis writer@kansan.con Kansan staff writer By Melissa Davis A nationwide flu vaccine shortage and production problems will delay distribution of the vaccine at Watkins Memorial Health Center. With the flu season around the corner, Watkins is preparing for the shortage by ordering more of the vaccines than normal. Randall Rock, Watkins chief of staff, said the health center ordered 3,000 shots this year - 500 more than it administered last year. Shots will not be available at Watkins until October, which is a month behind the center's planned schedule. The shortage came from an unexpectedly slow growth of one of the vaccine's strains in laboratories. Two of the four companies that manufacture the vaccine have had production setbacks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration are teaming with manufacturers to determine how much of the vaccine will be available this fall. The FDA, CDC and manufacturers of the vaccine say they FLU VACCINATIONS ■ Flu vaccinations will be available at Watkins Memorial Health Center beginning in October. Vaccinations also will be available at eight other campus locations, including Daisy Hill, Greek housing and GS-Pcorin. - The vaccinations will cost between five and ten dollars. are positive that vaccines will be available for people that are at higher risk. These include the elderly and people with weaker immune systems. Rock said he encouraged students to get the vaccine as early as possible, especially if they smoke or have asthma. "These students are at a higher risk to catch the virus," he said. The shots will be available at Watkins and eight other campus locations — including residence halls and greek housing during the fall get the shot as early as possible. "If a student waits to feel symptoms of the flu before getting the vaccine, it is too late," he said. Rock also said students should get the shot as early as possible. Edited by Katherine Moore Norplant may fail, company says Women could need extra birth control by Melissa Davis writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Women using Norplant implants as their primary source of birth control may need to find another source of contraception. Wyeth Ayerst Laboratories, makers of the birth control implants, told doctors to advise patients not to rely on certain lot numbers of the implants made after October of last year. No recalls have been made. In routine testing, Wyeth Ayerst found that many of the Norplant implants sent out after October were not as effective as they should be.

Introduced in 1990, this form of contraception was lauded by physicians for its convenience and its effectiveness. While the convenience is its most appealing attribute, the drawbacks are noteworthy. The initial cost of the surgery may be high for some and Norplant may cause irregular periods. Now add to that list that the less-effective implants. But it's unlikely many at University of Kansas are affected. Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said he had seen about 10 patients who used the implants as their primary source of birth control. The implant was aimed at college-aged women, but the marketing didn't take off," he said. Wyatt Ayerst said the implants may still be effective and the announcement is a precaution to advise users to use an additional method of birth control — especially for women who could face medical problems if they became pregnant. A letter from the company said that women didn't need to be alarmed or have the implants removed. "We recommend taking this precaution while we further evaluate the shelf life stability of these lots of Norplant and any potential clinical relevance of these findings," the letter said. Wyatt Ayerst is working with the Food and Drug Administration to conduct further tests on the implants, expected to take two months. Watkins offers implantation and removal of Norplant implants for KU students. YOUR HEAD Megan Dudley, Lawrence freshmen, thumbs through the channels in her room in Lewis Hall. Dudley is one of the many freshmen who will have to adjust to shared space and life in residence halls. Photo illustration by Selena Jabara/KANSAN Adjusting to Daisy Hill a challenge writer@kansan.com Bv J.D. McKee Kansan staff writer Life in the residence halls can take some getting used to for freshmen. There's the new roommates, the new room and the new bed. Then there's the new faces, among other adjustments. Things can get rather tense. "It was nerve-racking at first," said Andrew Luxem, Topea freshman. "And fun once I relaxed and got to know people." He said the nightly floor meetings at Templin Hall helped him become better acquainted with the people on his floor. He said his resident assistant set up games in the lobby at night so the residents could meet one other. Living with roommates has also been a new experience for Luxem. "It's different," he said. "You have less privacy." Although he knows people from his high school, Luxem said it was difficult to adjust. But he said he was confident he would, eventually. "Once classes start, I'll become more comfortable and get into the groove of school," he said. Megan Priebe, Katie Suenram and Kyle Leif didn't know anyone when they moved into their rooms in Lewis Hall. They all came from out-of-state and were either the only ones from their high school who came to the University of Kansas or were one of a small few. Being away from old friends was also a concern for them. "I miss my old friends, but I know I'll see them on holidays," said Priebe, Omaha, Neb., freshman. Suenram, Lee's Summit, Mo., freshman, said she spent her first day in her room because she didn't know anyone there. "I talked to my roommates and called friends," she said. They said they were becoming better adjusted and enjoying college now that they were getting to know people on their floors, other than just their roommates. "I'm meeting new people, and I can sleep whenever I want," said Leif, Sutton, Neb., freshman. Prize said she thought of school like camp. "I used to go to a camp in Iowa for a month," she said. "I think of it like I'm at camp and can go home after a couple of weeks." Lindsay Hanson, Concordia freshman, also used to go to camp but doesn't think it prepared her for going away from home at all. "There's nothing that can prepare you for college life," she said. Hanson does, however, enjoy being on her own and doesn't feel intimidated about being away from home. But Hanson had the advantage of knowing people before moved to Hashinger Hall. "Seeing familiar faces makes it more like home," she said. — Edited by Warisa Chulindra To Every Generation there is a CliffsNotes Find the CliffsNotes you need wherever books are sold!

Dry weather, wood mulch and cigarettes have combined to spark three fires in two days — two on campus and one at a south Lawrence townhome. KU Public Safety officers responded about 5:10 p.m. Tuesday to a small fire near the east entrance of Strong Hall. Officers believe the fire started when someone tossed a burning cigarette into wood mulch. It took officers just a few minutes to put out the fire with fire extinguishers, but Sgt. Troy Malen said that the fire could have spread to the building. "There's always room for concern, especially when you're looking at possible structure fires," he said. "Strong Hall is a stone building, but so was the majority of Hoch when it burned." Hoch Auditorium burned in 1991 and was rebuilt as Budig Hall. A similar incident occurred Monday near the same place. Employees working in Strong Hall noticed smoldering mulch near the ashtray at the east entrance. They doused the area with water before flames broke out. Kristine Gregory, Lawrence junior, was forced to leave her townhome at 2214 Breckenridge Drive Tuesday afternoon after a fire burned an exterior wall and part of the roof. Rich Barr, fire marshal for Lawrence-Douglas County Fire & Medical, said investigators thought the fire was caused by a discarded cigarette that ignited wood. Investigators estimated the damage at $10,000. The fire department's occupant services and Red Cross workers helped Gregory and her roommates find other housing. Barr said the hot, dry weather made it even more important that smokers dispose of their cigarettes in the proper receptacles. - when the temperature is like it is today - a hundred degrees plus or minus — for combustible materials, if they're outside, their temperature is at 100 degrees," Bar said yesterday. "The amount of heat that needs to be introduced to that material to get it to flame is less than if it's 60 degrees out." on. Barr and Mailen said several fires each year were caused by careless disposal of cigarettes. "Everyone should take responsibility to dispose of cigarette butts properly," Mailen said. - Edited by Clay McCuistion University gets grant to study global warming By Jay Krall writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer A $2.3 million grant will help University of Kansas researchers study new methods for reducing global warming. The answer to reducing global warming may be to trap the gases that cause it, scientists say, and also inhaling the production of those gases at industrial sites. Researchers will study methods for recovering the carbon dioxide released from smokestacks and trapping it in coal beds and abandoned mines in an effort to reduce global warming with the money. "This is a very expensive proposition," said Kansas Geological Survey researcher Tim Carr. "The amount of carbon dioxide we're talking about is tremendous. It's more than all the natural gas we move. Our question is, where is it and where can we get rid of it?" The KU Energy Research Center also will use the grant money to study recycling the gas. When converted to liquid, carbon dioxide can be used for withdrawing oil from rock in oil reservoirs, Carr said. The University will contribute data to the Midcontinent Interactive Digital Carbon Atlas and Relational DataBase (MIDCARB), an organization that gathers information on carbon dioxide emissions. MIDCARB is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy and a group of five state geological surveys, including Kansas. "With MIDCARB, our goal is to gather all the information in one place and put it in a form that will allow planners to make informed decisions about how best to manage CO2," said Scott White of the Energy Research Center. Gases such as carbon dioxide and methane are released in the breakdown of solid waste and fossil fuels, and they contribute to the greenhouse effect. The gases radiate the sun's light energy as heat causing temperatures to increase. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates global temperatures have increased by between 0.6 and 1.2 degrees in the last century. Global warming has occurred most dramatically since 1985, with 10 of the century's warmest years recorded in the last 15 years. Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio will contribute just over $900,000 each in state funds toward the KU project. It also has received $672,000 in federal money. - Edited by Shawn Hutchinson MILKY LYNCH E. J.

"I'm used to it and enjoy working outside." Severin and his wood-cutting partner, E.J.

"It should have been Rich voted off." Thomas said. "We've hated him for two and a half months, and he won." Though emotions ran high at the party, Rob Voelker, Lincoln, Neb., junior, said he was not impressed with the hype. "I feel the people on the show took themselves way too seriously," he said, adding that he'd only watched 30 seconds of the show during the 13-week series. However, Voelker may have been one of the only people not caught up in Survivor mania. Experts predicted that about 40 million people would tune into the final episode, making it the most-watched show on Wednesday night. Survivor is similar to other reality-based shows such as CBS' Big Brother and MTV's The Real World, but it takes place in a more primitive setting. Josh Johnson said he enjoyed watching the castaways use strategy, wit and strength to overcome obstacles. "it's like an athletic event, a game show and a social experience all in one," he said. Though the hosts of the party said they were sad to see Survivor end, they said it definitely had brought them closer together. "We've really bonded over our Survivor experience," Thomas said. san. The first Survivor series ended last night, but a second series in Australia already has been planned. Some fans at the party said they were looking forward to the next season's adventures.

Putin said no changes would be made until there was a full understanding of what happened and whether there were guilty parties. Putin and the government have come under heavy criticism for their slow, contradictory reaction to the Aug. 12 disaster and the botched rescue operation. Many observers expected Putin to respond by firing top brass. The loss of the Kursk, which suffered a devastating explosion during naval exercises in the Barents Sea, has left many Russians in shock, wondering if their crisis-ridden nation will ever return to stability. Putin returned to Moscow early yesterday after a long and emotional meeting with sailors' relatives, who complained about the botched Russian rescue operation and the generally dismal conditions in the Russian navy. "The grief is immeasurable, there are not enough words of comfort," Putin told them. "My heart hurts, but yours hurt even more." Russians assailed Putin for taking so long after the Aug. 12 accident to show concern for the crew and criticized the government for initially resisting international help. The Russian navy is negotiating with the Norwegians for help lifting the submarine — which weighs about 25,000 tons in its flooded state — and retriev- "Until the bodies of our husbands are retrieved, until we see them with our own eyes, we will not mourn." Oksana Dudko wife of deputy commander, Sergei ing the bodies. Such an operation could take months and be extremely expensive. There also is concern about the ship's two nuclear reactors, though the Norwegians recorded normal radiation levels around the Kursk and double-checked its readings with Nordic and Russian sensors. It remained unclear what caused the explosion that crumpled the ship. Government and military officials, stung by public anger, suggested Cold War enemies were to blame. Norwegian officials said there was no sign of a collision. A likely scenario was an internal malfunction and explosion in the Kursk's torpedo compartment. The Russian high command said the most likely reason was a collision with a Western submarine, probably U.S. or British, that survived and escaped. The U.S. and British navies reject the accusations, and no concrete evidence has been provided. Putin was reluctant to assign immediate blame "We could only punish someone from the fleet command if guilt is specifically proven," he told the relatives. New rules set for cell research grants The Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Clinton today touted new federal guidelines allowing scientists to conduct federally funded research on cells taken from human embryos, saying they offer "potentially staggering benefits." The guidelines for the research are vehemently opposed by anti-abortion groups. They set out the criteria the National Institutes of Health will use to consider applications for federal grants to study embryonic stem cells, said an advocate who was briefed on the standards and the schedule for issuing them. At an impromptu news conference, Clinton acknowledged the controversy surrounding this new scientific initiative. Experts believe the cells could be invaluable in treating many serious diseases, such as diabetes and Alzheimer's. But some oppose the research on grounds that to get the cells, scientists must destroy human embryos. But he said: "I think that if the public will look at first of all the potentially staggering benefits of this research, everything from birth defects to Parkinson's, certain kinds of cancer, diabetes, spinal cord injuries ... it's a potential change for the future." Clinton also said it would deal only "with those embryos that are collected in-in vitro fertilization." "I think we cannot walk away from the potential to save lives and improve lives," he said, "to help people get up and walk ... as long as we meet rigorous ethical standards, and I am convinced and (Health and Human Services) Secretary (Donna) A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z. Shalala is convinced that has been done." Clinton: announced new research guidelines The research involves what are called pluripotent stem cells, the foundation cells that give rise to all of the other cells, tissues and organs in the body. Scientists believe it may be possible to use these cells to grow new organs to replace ailing hearts, treat brain disorders, to restore severed nerves in spinal injuries, and perhaps even cure diabetes by growing new insulin-producing cells. Under the guidelines, federal research may be conducted only on cells taken from frozen embryos from fertility clinics — already destined to be discarded. Also, federal funds could not be used to destroy the embryos to obtain the cells — privately funded researchers will have to pass them on to federally supported scientists. Opponents criticize this separation as meaningless. They outlaw payments to embryo donors and keep donors from specifying who should receive their embryo's stem cells. These provisions aim to discourage a market for stem cells and block a woman from creating embryos just to provide treatment for a sick relative. Patient support groups applauded the Patient support groups applauded the new rules. Daniel Perry, chairman of the Patients' Coalition for Urgent Research, told the Associated Press that the federal rules were the safest way to have to conduct research, "rather than being ON THE NET: National Institutes of Health: http://www.nih.gov. driven solely by commercial interests outside of public purview." Opponents have threatened to stop the effort. But scientists say the retrieval is conducted when an embryo is only a week old and is still a microscopic ball of identical cells. Under the new rules, applications for research would have to pass a committee of scientists and ethicists before being forwarded to an NIH scientific review committee, said the advocate. That review committee is scheduled to have its next meeting in January, so the first awards would not be awarded until late in 2001. Perry said that there was bipartisan support for pursuing the benefits of the research, while addressing the legal, ethical and moral issues. "It would be bad public policy to wall off by congressional action any avenue that science might find cure the patient's needs," Perry said. New report calls for U.N. changes defense ministry The Associated Press UNITED NATIONS — The United Nations will face more peacekeeping failures in the 21st century without a major overhaul, said an international panel that called yesterday for the equivalent of a U.N. ministry of defense to bolster the world body. The panel of experts was appointed by Secretary-General Kofi Annan to look at U.N. peacekeeping operations after highly critical reports on the U.N. performance in the 1994 Rwanda genocide and the 1995 fall of the U.N.-protected enclave of Srebrenica, which led to the massacre of thousands of Bosnian Muslims. The 10-member panel did not endorse a United Nations army, but it did encourage the 188 U.N. member states to form several brigade-size forces of 5,000 troops each that could deploy in 30 to 90 days, depending on the complexity of the U.N. peacekeeping operation. The United Nations must be able to address any conflict situation — from prevention to actual enforcement — and at the moment it doesn't have the headquarters staff, the troops, money or the information to properly analyze and plan strategically, said former Algerian Foreign Minister Lakhdar Brahimi, who chaired the panel. The 58-page report called for a substantially larger, modernized, high-tech U.N. peacekeeping department in New York staffed by well-trained military professionals who use information technology and plan operations with a U.N. team including political, human rights, development and election experts. It did not give a price tag. At the moment, the panel said, just 32 officers at U.N. headquarters were responsible for 27,000 U.N. troops from 20 countries scattered across the globe in 14 peacekeeping operations — a staff that no national government would tolerate. Similarly, it said, more than 8,600 civilian police were deployed in U.N. missions with a headquarters staff of only nine civilian police. The report said the need for changes in U.N. peace operations has become even more urgent following the hostage-taking of 500 U.N. peacekeepers by rebels in Sierra Leone in May, and the prospect of expanded U.N. peacekeeping operations in Congo. Annan asked the panel to make recommendations to improve prospects for peace in the 21st century, which he wants world leaders to consider at the Millennium Summit at U.N. headquarters in New York from Sept. 6 to 8.

Although professionals are allowed in the Olympic baseball tournament for the OLYMPIC GAMES inst time, the Sydney Games overlap the final two weeks of the major league season, with all major-league teams unwilling to part with players on their active 25-man rosters. "We would have liked to had players like Mark McGwire, Greg Maddux and Darryl Kile, but this is what was available to us," said Bob Watson, co-chairman of the selection committee. The U.S. team, managed by Dodgers executive Tommy Lasorda will be trying to upset two-time defending gold medalist Cuba in the Olympics. Japan and South Korea are among the favorites. NFL Running back's wife held as murder suspect CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The wife of Fred Lane was ordered held without bond as prosecutors said she could be charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of the NFL running back. Deidra Lane, 25, appeared close to tears as she appeared before Mecklenburg County District Court Judge Philip Howerton.

TENNIS Williams sisters won't face off until finals NEW YORK — There will be no semifinal meeting this time for Venus and Serena Williams. If the sisters, dominating women's tennis this summer, face each other at the U.S. Open, it will be for the championship.

Childress is widely regarded as one of the top prospects in the nation and is seriously considering five schools: Stanford, Arizona, UCLA, Kansas and North Carolina. The Jayhawks are also high on the list of Miles, ranked as the No. 4 point guard in the nation by FoxSports.com after an impressive performance this summer. Miles averaged 12 and six assists per game last season for Jefferson High in Portland, Ore. Miles recently dropped decide among Kansas, UCLA and Arizona. I tink the thing the colleges like most about me is my court leadership, along with my passing ability and my will to win," Miles told The Oregonian. Kansas, however, may lose out on an in-state recruit — Dennis Latimore, a 6-foot-9 forward from Halstead. Ranked as the 27th best power forward in the nation by Midwest Hoops, Latimore is still considering Kansas, but UCLA and Arizona are also high on his list. "I think the thing the colleges like most about me is my court leadership, along with my passing ability and my will to win." Aaron Miles KU recruit The Jayhawks are also on the short lists of Errol Knight, a 6-foot-5 point guard from Seattle, Chuck Hayes, a 6-foot-7 forward from Modesto, Calif., and Chad Bell, a 6-foot-11 center from Los Angeles, who is seen by many experts as a project. Kansas' stock is plummeting in the eyes of St. Louis forward David Lee, who told Kurt O'Neill of ACC Recruiting Update that he would like to play in a more up-tempo offense, such as Duke or Florida. On Lee's short list are Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Duke, North Carolina and Florida. Lee told O'Neill he hoped to have the list cut to three or four by September. The Jayhawks are also in the running for one of the nation's top prospects — South Holland, Ill., center Eddy Curry. Nicknamed "Baby Shaq," Curry is ranked as one of the top three prospects in the class of 2001, averaging 24 points per game last season. Although Kentucky, Memphis, DePaul, Illinois and Connecticut are also on Curry's list, recruiting experts predict Curry will forgo college and head straight for the NBA. Jeremy Tiers of All-Star Report said that NBA scouts have been watching Curry since his sophomore season and that he would be a top three pick if he chose to enter the draft. Cross country teams clean up Rim Rock A day full of clearing trails, picking up rocks and cleaning up trash may not sound appealing, but it took on quite a purpose Monday for the Kansas men's and women's cross country teams. By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter For five hours, the teams prepared Rim Rock Farm, their home course, for competition. Assistant coach Doug Clark said that having a course like Rim Rock was crucial to the program and that keeping a sense of pride for the course was important. "A lot of schools aren't fortunate enough to have their own course, so it's important to take care of it," he said. "Not many schools can say that they have a course that can host the NCAA "It was a great opportunity for runners on the men's and women's teams to interact," he said. "It took a long time, about five hours, so they were together quite a while." while the first few days of practice have been difficult, Clark found that the cleanup was a great way for the members of both teams to work together and bond. tournament." Although the cleaning process was grueling and time-consuming, the players said they realized that having a home course such as Rim Rock demanded respect and attention. "The coaches really stressed to us that this is our home," said freshman Ian McDonald. "It was a long five hours, but it paid off. The course looks good." The Rim Rock course is unique because it can easily host meets ranging from high school events to the NCAA tournament. The Bob Timmons Invitational, the Jayhawks' opening meet, will take place Saturday, Sept. 9. On Saturday, Sept. 16, high school cross country teams from around the Midwest will compete in the KU Invitational. With not even a week of practice under their belt, Clark and head coach Stanley Redwine are becoming a little more accustomed to their teams and surroundings. "We're starting to get a look at who is going to be playing a big role for us this year, but then again we had two more guys walk on to the team yesterday," Clark said. "When we were out at Rim Rock, a lot of the Kansas guys were showing me and Coach Redwine things we "It was a great opportunity for runners on the men's and women's teams to interact." Doug Clark assistant cross country coach hadn't seen before. Everything is still new to us." "The Big 12 Championships aren't until late October, so we have a lot of time to get into shape." Clark said. The next month of practices and meets will be important to the teams because it will give the runners a chance to become stronger and faster. — Edited by Lori O'Toole Woods relaxes for a day, rests for NEC Invitational The Associated Press AKRON, Ohio — Tiger Woods was so drained after his dynamic duel with Bob May to win the PGA Championship that he stayed home in Florida an extra day to relax and recharge his batteries For Woods, that meant lying on the couch with the television remote in hand, going to neighbor Mark O'Meara's house for tacos — and still finding a little bit of time to figure out what went wrong last week at Valhalla. It was a great finish, but not a perfect one. TIGER "As I said, my two drives were a wonderful 3-wood and driver - 50 yards right and 50 yards left." Woods said yesterday. Woods: has shot par or better his last 27 rounds. Woods is coming off perhaps the greatest summer in golf, winning the last three major championships with a record score under par. Yet, he is not satisfied. Woods has finished out of the top 10 only three times this year, and two have come in his first tournament after winning majors. The NEC Invitational, a 37-man field that begins today at Firestone Country Club, should be a little different. For one thing, Woods is only four days removed from a final round in which he played his final 15 holes in 8 under, with birdies on the last two holes to get into a playoff and then one putt on each of three playoff holes to hold off a spirited challenge from May. The stakes at Firestone are high — a $5 million purse in the World Golf Championship event. And the field is no slouch, despite Europe changing its rule and eliminating top players such as Jesper Parnevik and Sergio Garcia. "It makes things a little bit easier to adjust and get your mind ready and focused to play in a tournament, especially in a golf course like this." Woods said. A year ago, Woods had a 62 in the third round to build a five-stroke lead, then hung on for a one-stroke victory over Phil Mickelson. It was the springboard toward Woods winning his last four PGA Tour events of the year. Is he up for an encore? Win or not, Woods has another streak on the line. Dating to a first-round 73 in the Byron Nelson Classic, he has played his last 27 rounds on the PGA Tour at par or better. The record since the tour began keeping such statistics in 1980 is 28, belonging to O'Meara and Craig Stadler. "The year is not over yet," he said. "I still would like to win a few more tournaments this year and play well. I still need to finish out the season." Delgado hits two homers in Toronto's 9-8 victory The Associated Press TORONTO — Carlos Delgado had his fifth two-homer game of the season last night as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Kansas City Royals, 9 to 8.

He'll play. But don't expect to win. "How I play that game is a reflection of how I play on the field," Smith said. Plus, this season is fun and simpler. Smith said this year was starting out easier because he was the definite starter. When the starting spot was finally his for good, Smith loosened up and ran a more explosive offense that opponents didn't expert. "We couldn't ask for much more from Dylen, and what he's done here so far," said Kansas coach Terry Allen. Smith finally earned a start in Kansas' fifth game last year, against Southern Methodist, where Kansas opens this season. He threw 12 touchdown passes last season, the seventh best in school history. And this year, he's one of five co-captains. On a dreary, wet day when it was tough to grip and throw a football, Smith led the offense on a 75-yard scoring drive on his first attempt. He picked apart the defense, analyzed it just like he would the board game and won the battle. He dropped passes over the middle of the field as if they were small plastic discs designed to slide easily into different gaps in the game's playing board. And the game imitates life. On that first successful drive, Smith connected on all four passes. "I will win," Smith said. "I am always going to win." He is talking about Connect Four. He hopes football is that way, too. Edited by Warisa Chulindra Practice schedule, heat take a toll on Hill By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter With a sigh of relief and a gasp for air, the Kansas football team took its final snap of two-a-day practices yesterday. All the while, someone was missing. Junior wide receiver Harrison Hill still is absent from the Jayhawks lineup. He hasn't practiced since Friday and probably won't until he gets his chronic dehydration under control. Dehydration troubles are nothing new for Hill, though, as he has battled them since his high school days at Wichita Collegiate. Coach Terry Allen said that, while Hill hasn't been practicing, he may be an immediate option to play if and when he becomes healthy. "I just want him to get better," said Allen after practice yesterday. "I wouldn't say with Harrison that (he won't play) if he missed another five days or more." Senior fullback Moran Norris echoed Elon's thoughts, but said the offense was moving along without its prime receiver. He said the loss of Hill shook the team up because he played a big role in the offense. "A lot of the guys have really stepped in, though, like Termaine Fulton and Byron Gasaway and Derick Mills and they did a really good job," Norris said. While Hill has suffered dehydration troubles since high school, other members of the football team joined in his anguish during the last two weeks. Norris said that he and his teammates had to take some responsibility in preventing dehydration by drinking plenty of fluids. "Over the course of the preseason, we've had 12 to 15 guys who have had some dehydration problems," Allen said. "Probably 10 of those have had some type of full body cramp. The last one of those was Tim Bowers (on Monday)." "I drink lots of bottled water every morning before I come to practice and then lots of rehydrolytes like Gatorade at night until I just feel full," Norris said. Although Hill has been sidelined for almost a week, Allen said his team is still moving in the right direction. "Physically, I think we're farther along and mentally, we've got some catching up to do," Allen said. "I think we're farther on offensively than we were a year ago." corps which, even with the absence of Hill, is miles ahead of last year's receivers in terms of health. Fulton has returned from a season-ending high ankle sprain from a year ago. Gasaway has fully recovered from the broken jaw he suffered from a weight room accident last fall. That includes at the receiver - Edited by Chris Borniger. The area Allen focused on improving yesterday was the conditioning of his linemen. "The offensive and defensive linemen, today, we had them do some cardiovascular conditioning." Allen said. "I don't think we're at maximum lung capacity. It's not as bad as where (we were last year)." Unselfish athletes fresh change from corrupt players Sports Columnist Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Isn't it good to know there are actually some good people in the professional sports world these days? Last year was not good for professional sports. Players were arrested for financing drug rings, crimes were covered up, ex-wives were murdered — allegedly. There was a lack of respect for the games some athletes claimed to love and a lack of respect for those who made the games great. My friends, it's become an "all-about-me" society. These things don't shock us anymore. We've seen it all before. Being a thug is nothing new. Being a good person is. Being a good person is. That's why we like people such as St. Louis quarterback Kurt Warner, San Antonio forward Tim Duncan and golf pro Tiger Woods. That's why the loss of Chiefs' linebacker Derrick Thomas stung so badly. They were reverent when speaking of their predecessors. They cared about others and they play hard all the time — regardless of contract negotiations. That also begins to explain Mia Hamm. Very few athletes since Michael Jordan have attracted such a crowd everywhere they go. Very few athletes inspire the media to stop dead in their tracks and trool over the opportunity to speak to troel. No other athlete has left this writer speechless during an interview. Hamm does on a daily basis, just like she did at Arrowhead Stadium Sunday when she and the rest of the United States women's soccer team battled Canada to a 1-1 tie. Why all the media attraction? It's the same reason fans flock to her. Simply put, it's about respect. As the greatest woman to ever play soccer and the most prolific scorer, man or woman, in the history of the game, fans and media alike are awe struck by her ability to score and create goals. She has scored 123 career goals and has notched almost as many assists, making her equally dangerous passing the ball as when shooting. You'd think someone with such a nose for scoring would bask in the spotlight like Philadelphia guard Allen Iverson, but again you'd be wrong. Mia does the interview thing because we beg her for it, but she rarely speaks of herself. Why not? She's the best who ever played — the best scorer, best passer — why not brag? Because that's not Mia. She'll tell you about teammates Tiffeny Milbrett or Kristine Lilly making good runs at the goal. She'll talk about the solid play of the midfielders. You'll get maybe two or three words about her to answer your question. Then she'll speak of those who paved the way for her and her teammates to play the game. She'll tell you, "We have a lot to thank for the other women out there in the other sports who had the courage 20, 30, 50 years ago with the LPGA. If it wasn't for women like that who had that vision and perseverance, we wouldn't be able to have this opportunity." Appreciation for the past? Without a doubt. Tiger did the same last week when he and the legendary Jack Nicklaus played 18 holes together at the U.S. Open — Nicklaus final appearance at the Open. Yes, it was a good weekend of sports, highlighted by a few good people bringing honor to their games. I just hope the coming year in sports will follow this same trend.

Unlike last year, Smith won't have to battle a teammate for the starting quarterback position this year. Kansas file photo By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Dylen Smith is practicing, constantly surveying the field, looking for open spots and trying to figure out what the defense is going to do to stop him. stop him. This game is an instinct to him. It comes easily to him. He will not allow himself to be beaten. It's his move now, and he will make the right play. He stares across the defense to see what its next move will be. He will win, anyway, he figures. Doesn't matter whether he plays the red or black checkers. Cueckers? Oh, this is not football. And don't scoff just because he spends his free time playing Connect Four. Almost everyone has a hobby, something to do to avert attention from their pressures. "It doesn't matter what the game is," Smith said. "Football or (Connect Four). I'm competitive. I hate to lose." Some people run extra sprouts or work out until the gym has to be locked. Maybe Smith is on to something with his training ritual. The game moves fast, requires quick mental reflexes and an ability to look ahead of the game. But the game is something more to Smith. He was poised to make a run Just like football. Just like quarterback, which is Smith's position. at the starting spot at Kansas after two years at a junior college in Santa Monica, Calif. Problem was, Smith didn't know the offense. He didn't know anybody. He missed his friends, his beloved Oakland Raiders and the brilliant California sunshine. silly. "I was homesick," Smith said. "I'd like to say it didn't affect me on the field, but maybe it did." Smith was quiet around everyone, which didn't help, especially in football, where he is the quarterback — a natural leadership role. "This season, he has definitely positioned himself as more of a leader," said senior running back Moran Norris. "He is the starting quarterback. He has to be." Smith kept to himself when he first came to Lawrence. He said it wasn't until he got to know someone that he would display his true outgoing nature. "I think being quiet set me back some," Smith said of arriving last year. "I was afraid to talk or to ask questions. When I first came (to Kansas), I didn't know much about the offense or anything. It would have helped for me to talk more." Connect Four, believe it or not, helped him. It allowed him to meet some people. He will take on anyone, including his teammates or the media relations department. See HOBBY on page 13A Coming Home AIRA 9 Molly Scavuzzo, dives for a ball during practice at Horesji Family Center. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN Volleyball transfer is all smiles By Sarah Warren By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter only salt. The rest benedited sophomore is just that centered on he at Kungas. Molly Scavuzzo can't stop smiling. Her accomplishments at Northwest led to heavy courting from Division I volleyball teams, which she narrowed down to Wyoming and Kansas. And when the schmoozing subsided, Scavuzzo's native state came in second. excited to be at Kansas. As a recent addition to the Kansas volleyball team, the 6-foot-2 outside hitter and Overland Park native is finally where she wants to be, athletically and geographically. As a standout at volleyball powerhouse Blue Valley Northwest, Scavuzzo and her teammates dominated her final two seasons, going 83-2 — undefeated in her senior season — and coming away with back-to-back 6A state championships. sure came in second. "Wyoming really recruited me really But their things sank. "Wyoming was really good, but the year that I redshirted they lost a lot of valuable seniors," Scavuzzo said. "They tried to rebuild the program, but that wasn't going so well." Scavuzzo arrived at Wyoming with high expectations for the team, which is historically a volleyball juggernaut but decided to sit out her freshman season as a redshirt and just take it all in. well," Scavuzzo said. "I was being recruited by KU too, but I think I chose Wyoming because I really wanted to go far away." "It it was an unhealthy situation," Scavuzzo said. "Wyoming was not the place I thought it would be. When it came down to it, I wasn't enjoying volleyball like I had been and how I do now." But then things started to change. Off the court, the distance that was so attractive to Scavuzzo began to lose it's charm. Things were so bad that Scavuzzo started to lose her love for the sport. "I have a large family, and I didn't want to be away from them," Scavuzzo said. "It's much better to be 30 minutes away rather than 10 hours." So last spring, she contacted Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard and headed to Lawrence. And the Scavuzzo that he received was definitely an alter-ego of the unhappy redhead smacking down balls for Wyoming just months earlier. "Anytime you come back close to your support system it helps you out," Bechard said. "And Molly is a physical player and gives us depth in her position." Sweetening the transition to Kangas, Scavuzzo's high school coach, Christi Posey, signed on this summer as an assistant coach to Bechard. And ever since, her smile has been a permanent feature. "This is what I imagined college volleyball to be like," Scavuzzo said. "This is just the ideal situation for me." Edited by Kimberly Thompson Tough schedule means challenge for women's team By Zac Hunter sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter A schedule full of strong opponents awaits the Kansas women's basketball team this season. The schedule for the 2000-01 season, announced Tuesday, includes nine members of last year's NCAA Tournament field. Five of those opponents were ranked in the final Associated Press poll. Coach Marian Washington said the Hawks would be challenged early and often, but the adversity would be good for them. The biggest challenge the Jayhawks will face this year will be during the second half of the season, when conference play begins. Last year, the Big 12 Conference sent six teams to the NCAA tournament. Washington said the conference would be much improved, and Iowa State would be one of the teams to beat. The Hawks open the exhibition season November 8 against the Basketball Travelers at Allen Fieldhouse. The first exhibition game will be the first of 14 home games for the Jayhawks. "It will give our fans a lot more opportunity to see our team," Washington said. And judging by the changes the team underwent during the off season, the fans might need those games to become accustomed to Kansas' new players. The Hawks added six new players to the team, including three junior college transfers. Junior shooting guard K.C. Hilgenkamp, a Hutchinson Junior College transfer from Arlington, Neb., said she chose Kansas because she was impressed with the players and coaching staff and that she can't wait to start playing basketball. Along with the difficulty of the schedule comes the promise of notoriety.

Well, it hasn't been that easy — at least not yet.

Josh Childress, a 6-foot-6 swingman from Lakewood, Calif., and Jamal Sampson, a 6-10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., will both attend Night with Roy Williams on Oct. 13. Also planning a visit in October is Aaron Miles, a 6-foot point guard from Portland, Ore. Miles hasn't nalled down the exact date of his visit yet. Since Kansas center Eric Chenowith is a senior, inking a big man is a necessity for this year's recruiting class. That's where Sampson comes in. Sampson is widely known as one of the nation's top shot blockers, and his stock rose over the summer when he was impressive at the Nike Global Challenge tournament. Sampson said Kansas was a definite possibility so far. even said Kansas was a definite possibility." "Right now, Kansas has really shown that they want me," Sampson told Greg Hicks of Pac-West Hoops. "Connecticut is right there, too." Along with the Jayhawks and the Huskies, Sampson is also considering Syracuse and, to some degree, UCLA, Virginia and Saint Louis. It was rumored that Sampson and Childress would like to attend the same school, but Sampson said that was not necessarily the case. Sampson plans on signing in the November early signing period..

It is especially about being able to make a good cocktail even when it is really busy."

Goat 1 iowa man takes stab at eating slab of beef GRIINELL, Iowa — Denny McNurlen said he was willing to sacrifice his body for publicity when he sat down for a free meal to help a restaurant set a world record. The Grinnell man attempted to eat a 205-ounce steak. The massive 4-inch-thick sirloin weighed almost 13 pounds, the size of a small dog. "No brains, no headaches. That's my a lot of times." McNurlen said last week before sitting down with his steak knife at AJs Steakhouse. "I take on some things that I probably shouldn't," he said. "I will bloat myself just to see what I can do, I guess." The odds were against him from the start. McNurlen, who weighed 255 pounds before the feast feat, has lost most of his bottom-row teeth and knew he'd have to use his gums to chew. The restaurant's owners didn't care whether McNurlen cleaned his plate. They only needed him to attempt it, so they would have a shot at the Guinness Book of World Records. The record is 200 ounces. McNurlen took his first bite at 5:05 p.m. "Good." he declared. Good. He describes. He would eat quickly, he said, "so my brain won't have time to tell my stomach I am full." By 9:45 p.m., he took his last bite, finishing 150 ounces in all, or more than 9 pounds. Spanish see red during tomato-throwing fest BUNOL, Spain — Armored in goggles and fueled on wine and beer, some 30,000 revelers got pasted yesterday in one of Spain's most popular summer festivals — the annual tomato-throwing festival. Partiers hurled and kicked truckloads of tomatoes at opponents, lobbing the red fruit at one another and covering the village streets in tomato juice, seeds and slime in the fiesta known as La Tomatina. The festival kicked off with a ham-on-a-stick contest, where competitors raced up a greased pole to retrieve a smoked leg of ham. When the ham was cut down, revelers donned eye protection and cried for tomatoes as five trucks dumped the squishy ripe produce onto the village streets. Some residents covered their homes and businesses with plastic sheets. Others dumped buckets of water onto the revelers. Within an hour, the streets, the partiers and nearby buildings were gooed. The tomato fight in Bunol, some 25 miles north of Valencia on Spain's east coast, has become one of the country's most popular summer festivals, often drawing crowds from abroad. Local lore says the fiesta, held the last Wednesday of August, started in the 1940s when a group of kids threw their lunches at each other one day in a downtown square. They met again the following year, this time pelting passersby as well and creating the tradition. MIMAMBURG, Ohio — Park officials are trying to keep an Indian burial mold nicely groomed by using weed-eaters — the animal variety. Hungry llamas help park deal with weeds Two liamas — pack animals native to the mountains of South America are nibbling away at weeds and other vegetation that grows on the steep slopes of the 65-foot-high monument. "We were having problems managing it with our staff," said Debbie McLaughlin, parks and facilities superintendent. The slope of the mound makes it impossible to use mowers and other heavy equipment. Park workers had to tackle it on foot with weed eaters, shears and hand-held chemical sprayers. That was time-consuming and expensive, McLaughlin said. This year's wet summer caused the vegetation to grow even faster, putting an extra burden on the 12-person maintenance crew that must mow and trim all the city's parks and baseball fields. McLaughlin said city officials looking for a solution first suggested goats. Then, a city worker who knew someone with llamas recommended them because they eat all kinds of vegetation, including poison ivy. The flames have been on the mound for about a month, confined by a fence at its base. "We're really satisfied," McLaughlin said. Eye-popping plot fails to get hitchhiker ride GASTONIA, N.C. — A female hitchiker who said she hitched to attract a ride instead attracted a state trooper who charged her with indecent exposure. The German tourist told the trooper she was hitchhiking from Atlanta to Norfolk. Va. At least eight motorists called 911 on their cell phones instead of stopping, said Ann Reese, an operations supervisor with the Gaston County Telecommunications Center. Trooper K.R. Robinson, who charged the woman, said she was standing at an exit ramp carrying her Oddities coat, a change of clothes and a passport. The woman, identified as 43-year-old Hamza Schwenking-Ben of Nuremberg, Germany, told the troop she'd been in the United States about a month. She said she left Georgia about a week ago and was hitchhiking and walking her way along Interstate 85, hoping to meet a friend who lived in Virginia. Code sparks spirited criticism in Colorado DENVER — Maybe they should have seen it coming. Owners of three shops say they were blind-sided when undercover police stormed in to see if anyone was engaged in fortune-telling, clairvoyance or palmistry. Michael West, owner of Spiritways which offers classes on meditation, said officers came in waving copies of the city's 27-year-old ordinance prohibiting fortunetelling and threatened to arrest violators. "I mean, we need ordinances, but this ordinance needs to be off the books." West said. His shop and two others were targeted during the past few weeks. No arrests were made. The law bans anyone from practicing "fortunetelling, palmistry or clairvoyance" for payment, unless it is for religious reasons exempted by the Internal Revenue Service. Records show the ordinance is rarely enforced. The city hasn't written a citation for it since 1998. Violating the code is a misdemeanor and usually involves a small fine. Denver Assistant City Attorney John Poley said the ordinance is not at the top of the city's agenda. "It's kind of like urinating in public," Poley said. "We don't have a task force for it, but if a police officer saw someone doing it, they'd write a citation for it." Sports Combo Pick Up & Sales Students: Pick up your Sports Combo for 2000!

Photo by Tara Kraus/KANSAN Fest to help strays writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Bv Meahan Bainum If seeing nine bands for $10 and supporting the Lawrence Humane Society sounds like good fun supporting a good cause, head for the inside of The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., Saturday for Pawz Fest. Outside there will be a dog wash and a pet photo booth for $5, a raffle and a Pawz Fest puppy and dog adoption booth. Pawz Fest isn't a usual concert — it's more like an all-day party for people and animals. Amy Tramill, public relations coordinator for the humane society, said the benefit concert would help the humane society build a needed addition. "We have overcrowding like you wouldn't believe," she said. "We have so many more animals coming in, and we just don't have space for that." Tramill said the new shelter would be able to house about 72 dogs and 72 cats She said she also hoped Pawz Fest would help students become more involved with the humane society. students really do make pretty good pet owners, and we have a lot of students that come to volunteer here." BANDS PLAYING Shaking Tree B.L.R.W. Bulldog Front Mustard Couch Celia Kelly's Heraes Jumbo's Killcrane The Roundups Estoric BANDS PLAYING Tramill said. "We want to make that segment of the population more a part of the shelter." She said she didn't want students to be discouraged by the $10 ticket price. Paul Rosen, Topeka senior, is a member of the bands B.L.R.W. and The Roundpins, which are playing Pawz Fest. "If you think about donating $10 to the shelter, it's really not a lot," Tramill said. "You get to see nine bands, and it's fun and for a good cause." stage at 6:45 p.m. The Michael Beers Band, a dance band, will follow at 7:45 p.m., and Kansas City-based funk band Jesse Jackson 5 will finish off the night. Rosen said he had a good experience with the humane society when he took a stray cat to the shelter. Rosen said he felt better when he heard that the humane society would not put the male cat to sleep. An information fair with booths from both on-campus and local organizations will take place before the Lied Center kicks off semester with free outdoor concert He said the band couldn't resist playing for such a good cause. "One good reason to go is that it is free, of course, and that it is a good springboard to get acquainted with the center," said Kelly Furst, bassist from Coyote Project. "Really, it is just a laid back get-together." By Ging Kohake "We're just a bunch of animal lovers deep down inside, so we had a hard time saying no," he said. "The reason we do this every year is because it is so much fun," said Karen Christilles, director of marketing. "It is a way to give back to the community for all the ways they support our programs." The Lied Center tomorrow will play host its 5th Annual Free Outdoor Concert featuring the local bands Coyote Project. Michael Beers Band and Jesse Jackson 5. Edited by Amy Randolph Special to the Kansan Covote Project is set to take the music starts on the northeast lawn of the center. "The fair is a way to get people involved in everything the community and school have to offer," said Ericka Motley, student assistant to the public relations director. "It is also a way for us to get involved in what we have to offer." The center sponsors the Lied Series Productions, which traditionally have been a combination of six kinds of performing arts ranging from concerts to Broadway plays. "For us, the fair is a great way to learn about our season and to buy tickets for the shows," Motley said. "Most of all, it is a opportunity for people to get a foot in the door." Christilles the Lied Center was named one of the top 10 entertaining programs last spring by the International Art Managing Magazine. "We have such a variety of shows," Motley said. "They can be for families, for students or for adults. Personally, I am a lover of the arts, so I know we have incredible things to offer to everybody." Daniel Cage — Loud on Earth As a singer-songwriter, Daniel Cage shows great promise. Loud on Daniel Cage -- Earth is a well-crafted pop album and Cage has scored a minor radio hit with the song "Sleepwalking." He just needs to get away from the subject of relationships. The whole album is the musings of a man looking back on his lost love. It becomes repetitive and tired, although Cage's dedication to the music is obvious. The instrumentation remains fresh throughout, with Cage alternating between piano and organ. The strings on "The First Time" are a nice touch, especially in combination with electric and acoustic guitars. Occasionally he goes unplugged, with great results. The last track, "Fade Away," is soulful with just Cage and his piano. Pop lovers should watch for more hits from him. Lyrics ●●●○○○ Originality ●●●○○○ Instrumentation ●●●○○○ - Malta George Starlight Mints the dream that stuff was made of As confections go, starlight mints always have been one of the trade's most successful creations. Although the name might not ring a bell, if you've A ever grabbed a handful of little pastel-colored candy pillows from one of those ubiquitous crystal bowls found at weddings, you know the sweet, sugary bliss that trickles down your throat leaving your breath as fresh as a young Will Smith on Attoids. Utilizing this same recipe for success, Starlight Mints offers up a cool 1.1 tracks of "the dream that stuff was made of" on its new album of the same name. Perky pop flavors co-exist happily side by side with a few moodier romps through Candyland, which in turn, are perfectly content to be viewed through that same crystal bowl. Songs such as "Submarine #3,""Valerie Flames," and "Cracker Jack" find Sgt. Pepper floating perilously up in space trapped in David Bowie's tin can. To say that the vocals draw simply from the Brit-Pop whine of more well-known bands like Blur and Oasis would be a disservice to the fine range and back-up harmonies of the group. The kitschy frivolity of tracks with lyrics like "Chasing me out with a cup of the ol' switcheroo/ With a box of flash, a major sigh, a tiny submarine/ It's a masquerade, the mousecapade, and a ruby in your twist" do begin to wear on the ear. But the last couple of tracks suddenly change gears, showing us something different in the groups' arsenal. "Margarita," in particular, is propelled by a rollicking drumbeat and fueled by Sonic Youth-like dissonant guitar patterns. Much like the wedding staple, Starlight Mints are fresh and traditional at the same time. They'll appear with Enon and Be Non tonight at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. Lyrics ●●●○○ Originality ●●●●○ Instrumentation ●●●●○ — Derek John STUDENT DISCOUNT?

What Dave thinks makes a good bartender: "I wouldn't be doing it for this many years if I didn't enjoy it. Anyone can learn how to make drinks, but if you get to know people, that is different. You can still be a bartender if you don't know the people, but you are better if you do."

The University Daily Kansas Thursday, August 24, 2000 Movies Section B • Page 5 Bring it On makes you want to turn it off By Clare McLellan 72 28 74 55 13 78 10 44 57 55 49 62 59 Actresses Notina Reed, Brandi Williams, Gabrelle Union and Shamari Fears dance along with a cheerleading team from Rancho Carne High School to prove that the high school stole their cheer. This dilemma drives the plot of the movie *Bring It on*. Concluded photo For a movie that most college students probably do not have one ounce of interest in seeing, myself included, *Bring It On* wasn't the nightmare I expected. Special to the Kansan Don't be mistaken, however. It was not good. Starring Kirsten Dunst (The Virgin Suicides, Drop Dead Gorgeous), Bring it On is perhaps the first film to revolve solely around cheer- leading and all the drama that comes along with it. Rancho Carne High School has been the national cheerleading champion for five years running, and Torrance (Dunst), the new captain of the squad, is determined that the title will not be lost on her watch. Trouble ensues when the African-American squad across town steps in and confronts them with proof of stolen routines and cheers. "You didn't actually think a white girl came up with those moves, did you?" quips Isis (Gabrielle Union), the other squad's captain. The fact that a movie was actually made with this vapid plot is possibly intriguing enough to make one want to see it. Possibly. The truth is, the majority of young girls have dreams of being a cheerleader in high school. Who better than blond-haired, blue-eyed Dunst and her crew of standard, hot teenage girls to play out their fantasies onscreen? In our Britney Spears-out world, saccharin sells, and when the studio execs heard this story, they saw dollar signs. needs to keep it entertaining. The movie was surprisingly funny (and crass) at parts but devoid of any sort of real value. It seemed to be trying for the brashness of *Citiless* but couldn't quite pull it off. The opening sequence jars the audience as Dunst and her squail cheer about how great they are and glorify their status as sex objects. "I'm sexy, I'm cute, I'm popular to boot..." the girls chant proudly. The obscenities fly throughout the movie as do the sexual innuendoes, which give this film its PG-13 rating and the kick it This film is not noteworthy in any regard — what a shocker — but for what it is intended to be, Bring It On doesn't fall completely flat. While the film centers on the girls, the supporting male characters provide the standout performances. The new boy in school, Cliff (Jesse Bradford), does a fine job with his role as the "sit-and-wait-for-the-popular-girl-to-come-around" guy, balanced by his wisp-cracking sister in the film, Missy (Eliza Dushku), who begrudgingly joins the squad to keep up with her gymnastic talent. Torrance's younger brother is the quintessential pest, and her college-bound boyfriend is the quintessential cheesy male cheerleader who makes you want to vomit. Ian, the last-resort choreographer whom Torrance hires to help the squad create a fresh routine, is rather amusing as well. It is disappointing to see Dunst playing this part after proving herself as a fine young actress in earlier roles, most notably as the child vampire, Claudia, in Interview With the Vampire. She held her own on screen with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt at age 12 and now, six years down the road, she's portraying mediocre characters in cheerleading movies. Too bad. But for those out there who are eating up the plethora of teen comedies Hollywood is punching out these days, "Bring it On" is good for a laugh or two. A laugh or two that can certainly wait for video. Acting ●○○○ Plot ●○○○ Cinematography ●○○○ Jesus' Son a waste in the heroin-movie genre By Amy Cummins Special to the Kansan Jesus' Son, the latest film in the heroin movie sub-genre, is neither a well-made film nor an interesting portrayal of the early 1970s drug culture. Jesus' Son is centered around a guy known only as F**head, an appealing ne'er-do-well played by Billy Crudup (Inventing the Abbott, Waking the Dead). He falls in love with Michelle, played by Samantha Morton (Sweet and Lowdown, Under the Skin). Michelle seems to love F.H., yet she invites him into her heroin addiction. The film doesn't include the Velvet Underground song, "Heroin," on which its title is based. The song, written by Lou Reed, describes the experience of getting high: "When I'm rushing on my run/ And I feel just like Jesus' Son/ And I guess that I just don't know." The tension and energies of the Velvet Underground song also are absent from the film. Despite the money spent on special effects, the boring hallucination scenes (talking cotton balls, crucifixes at a drive-in) will disappoint anyone hoping for the standard drug movie gift of great visuals. The random crown-of-thorns imagery and suggestions of religious redemption are never followed through into a message more complex than a movie poster cliché. Even the tone is inconsistent — a mixture of slickness, faux-hipster styling and 1970s naturalism. Perhaps in a reaction against the Quentin Tarantino style, director Alison Maclean puts all the violence in context. But Jesus' Son lacks the arresting tension of a Tarantino film. As for Jesus' Son, wait for the video, if you see it at all. Edited by Warisa Chulindra Now Playing The Art of War — Opens tomorrow.

The movie opened Friday, Contributed photo The Cell is interesting to watch, but it certainly doesn't add anything to the serial-killer movie genre. Vince Vaughn (Swingers) plays FBI agent Peter Novak, hunting mentally deranged murderer Carl Stargher (Vincent D'Onofroi of Full Metal Jacket). Novak tracks Carl down but finds him in a coma. Unfortunately, Carl's latest victim still is missing and has limited time before his automated death machine kills her. In desperation, the FBI turns to Catharine Deane (actress/pop diva Jennifer Lopez), a therapist working with new technology that allows her to enter the mind of comatose patients. As you might imagine, the mind of a serial killer is less than inviting. It's also moderately gory, very strange and exceptionally vivid. Director Tarsem Singh (REM's "Losing My Religion" video) has an engaging visual style that translates well into The Cell, his first foray into feature film. It's truly remarkable to see. Unfortunately, the stunning visuals have a meager plot to sustain them. Combine that with a few implausible jumps in the storyline and an abundance of acceptable yet cliched plot elements, and you end up with a mediocre plot. The acting — sometimes bad, sometimes fine — doesn't do much to support or hinder the story. Lopez, dripping with lip gloss, does a respectable job. Vaughn is flaky early on but settles into the role by the film's end. As it is, The Cell is like a full-size model of a Ferrari sitting in your driveway — it's awfully pretty, but it doesn't go anywhere. — Edited by Chris Borniger Now Playing (continued from 58) Gladiator — Russell Crowe stars as Maximus, a general who is stripped of his rank when Modusmodus (Joaquin Phoenix) takes over the Roman Empire in 180 A.D.

Not just the ones pertinent to the topic, but also the ones that are completely tangential that show professors what a smart little student you are and make your writing enjoyable Chris Hopkins vabeditor@akansan.com to read. For instance, you could quote Ernest Hemingway in a history paper about World War I or find the most up-to-date demographics for Mexico for an essay about contemporary Latin American literature. The easiest way to check these facts is through the Internet — it would be silly to hit the library for a single fact — but wading through the Web can be time consuming. Here are some sites I've found especially helpful. Search engines I usually use Yahoo for my basic searches, but that's mostly out of habit. Most basic search engines like Altavista and Infoseek are pretty much the same as far as I've found. I use askjeeves.com when I don't know what to search for or when the topic is too broad. A couple of other options to consider are www.northernlight.com and an all-in-one search engine. Northern Lights is research-focused, and the rankings are solid, but some documents cost money. An all-in-one engine checks through several basic search engines. I use www.dogpile.com; others are allonesearch.com, search.com, and mamma.com. The world at large For maps, www.mapquest.com is hard to beat. For statistics, the CIA world fact book (www.odci.gov/cia/publications/f actbook/) has almost any number you could need, and all of it is fairly up-to-date. It's the same basic resource the CIA gives to its agents. There are a lot of good reference sites on the Web, but there are three where you'll find a lot of information on one site: www.bartleby.com/reference, The reference section www.funkandwagnalls.com and www.ipl.org/ref. The last, the Internet Public Library, also contains a list of online documents from 250 different versions of Shakespeare plays to two full copies of War and Peace — all 361 chapters of it. It's a good place to check if you're desperate to save money on textbooks. Elsewhere, the Britannica site, www.britannica.com, is as solid as the print version of the encyclopedia, and during my copy-editing internship I must have hit www.m-w.com, the Merriam-Webster site, at least twice a day for definitions or just for fun. For foreign languages, dictionaries.travlang.com covers 16, and www.travlang.com/languages has audio pronunciations of 70 languages. Print versions are still superior, though. Entertainment Possibly the most obsessive site on the Internet, www.imdb.com is a ridiculously thorough database of movie info. It can direct you to audio files from The Usual Suspects or give you a list of movies that were filmed here in Douglas County. There isn't really a similar site for music that I know of. I use www.cdnnow.com. There isn't a clearing house for quotations, either, but you can find the most popular collections at bartleby's and www.quote land.com. If you think I missed anything, email me a link to your favorite site at webeditor@kansan.com, and I may include reader recommendations in a later column. Your First Dance is FREE...

STERN New York Times bestselling author of The Blair Witch Diaries 5 Theatrical Book answers few questions 'Witch' revisited By Clay McCuistion Kansan features editor Blair Witch: The Secret Confession of Rustin Parr D. A. Stern (Pocket Books 151 pages, paperback Blair Witch: The Secret Confession of Rustin Parr is a far better book than it has any right to be. Novels related to hit movies are generally tepid retreads of cinematic experiences, but D.A. Stern crafts a compelling read. How much one enjoys the book is probably connected to how much one enjoyed the horror movie, though. This is certainly not a literary experience, and if you're not interested in books detailing the background of movie plots, this novel holds little worth. The story relates Stern's attempts to discover the real story behind hermit Rustin Parr's supposed murder of seven children in Burkittsville, Md., in the 1940s. Parr's pre-execution confession was given to priest Dominic Cazale, whom Stern befriends while conducting research about the supernatural, especially Burkittsville's fabled Blair Witch. Cazale nearly dies in a fire that kills his wife, and the story just gets better from there. Stern receives a packet in the mail from Cazale (sent before the fire) containing a journal detailing, among other things, the evil forces permeating the town. Cazale's journal comprises a hefty part of the book, and because it is supposedly written by a man going slowly insane, one never entirely figures out what's going on. The author obviously wants to replicate the experience of the movie by never quite revealing whether supernatural forces of evil exist. Unfortunately, while this low-key approach works wonders in the first part of the book, as one approaches the end it becomes clear that Stern has no intention of actually resolving much. Like the movie, one is left with more questions about the book than one has answers. — Edited by Shawn Hutchinson Top Fives "Survior," CBS, 17.9; tie: "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" (Sunday), ABC, and "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" (Tuesday), ABC, both 4.5.

University Theatre encourages auditions for fall performances By Livi Regenbaum Special to the Kansan Auditions for involvement in University Theatre productions begin at 7 tonight in Murphy Hall. All University of Kansas students are welcome to audition. The Pulitzer prize-winning drama Angels in America will open the 2000-2001 season. Angels In America — which opens Oct. 8 — was written by Tony Kushner and focuses on two couples in New York: a gay couple and a straight couple. Katherine Pryor University Theatre associate director, said the play would attract students and open the door to discussions about controversial issues. "Angels in America certainly causes students to think about the issue of homosexuality," she said. "With such a strong theme, we expect to have a solid turnout." The play is one of 10 productions lined up for University Theatre's fall and spring seasons. Other productions include The Call of the Wild, based on a Jack London's book. The University Theatre Fall Season Angels in America, Part I: Millennium Approaches by Tom Kushner Jann Rustle 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 13, 14, 19, 20 and Saturday, Oct. 21 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 22 How I Learned to Drive by Paula Vogel 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 26, 27, 28, 29 and Tuesday, Oct. 31 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 1, Another highlighted play for the season is The Bartered Bride, a classic Czech opera story about young lovers. It will open in the spring during the Lawrence Czech festival. About 6,500 students attended plays and musicals last year, and an additional 1,000 students volunteered to help in the theater. Pryor said. She said KU students had been taking a more active role in the theater activities. "Students are quite sophisticated and are becoming more interested in the theater and are attracted to the arts in general," Pryor said. Delbert Unruh University Theatre director, said the main goal of the theater was to provide appropriate theatrical training experience for KU students. "We are training and supporting the theater artists of tomorrow," he said. Tickets for the fall season went on sale Friday. For more information, contact the Murphy Hall box office at 864-3982 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. — Edited by Lori O'Toole 2,3 and Saturday, Nov. 4 Call of the Wild Original adaptation by Jon Lipsky; based on Jack London's Call of the Wild and White Fang 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 10, 11, 16, 17 and Saturday, Nov. 18 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 19 Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett Samantha Barnes 7:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8 and Saturday, Dec. 9 Come see us Thursday in the Union and Friday at Wescoe Beach to receive a Free T-shirt and $10 for opening a Free checking account $ 711 Wakarusa Drive 841-3600 (In Front of J.B.

Rick's PLACE Snipes movie shows exciting, fast-paced ride The Associated Press Did you know that the United Nations maintains a covert operation that alms to manipulate politics in certain countries? Or that the United Nations can negotiate a trade agreement with China and the rest of the world? No? Well, these and other whoppers can be learned in another slam-bang Wesley Snipes adventure called The Art of War. Snipes plays Neil Shaw, an American whose undercover work for the United Nations is so super-secret that he lacks an identity. We find him first in China, where a tycoon is throwing a millennium celebration in a hotel that rivals anything in Las Vegas. Snipe is there to learn more about the tycoon's plans to disrupt a historic trade compact between China and the world. The scene shifts to New York where Snipes reports to his supervisor, an ambitious FBI officer in charge of U.N. security, Anne Archer. When the Chinese ambassador to the United Nations is assassinated as he speaks at a formal luncheon, the movie moves into high gear. Snipe goes on the lam, pursued by an overzealous FBI agent (Maury Chaykin), the N.Y.P.D. and assorted Chinese snipes. Snipes' only ally is a lovely U.N. translator, Marle Matiko. Needless to say, the plot is more byzantine than a Mission: Impossible movie. Events and characters never turn out the way you expect. Gun battles, explosions, car chases, running races ad infinitum. Also a lot of breaking glass. All of this punctuated by thunderous music and sometimes thunder itself. The dialogue is replete with lines such as, "There is no free lunch; you have to pay the piper," and before an execution. "Whatever goes around, comes around." Snipes is getting to be an old hand at these conspiracy/adventure yarns. He outdoes himself this time, leaping from tall buildings without a net (he does use a parachute on one occasion). The Warner Bros. release, which lists four production and financing companies before the title, was produced by Nicolas Clermont. It is rated R for nudity, language and excessive violence and has a running time of 117 minutes.

James Kitchen, then dean of students, instituted the ban on parties at the Kansas and Burge unions last winter, following a Jan. 23 shooting at the Burge Union during an Alpha Phi Alpha dance party. Bryon Kirtdoll, Topeka, was arrested and charged with shooting Gregory J. Davis, then a KU senior from Denver. The case went to trial but was dismissed this spring when the victim failed to appear in court. The ban on union parties resulted in the cancellation of seven social events sponsored by traditionally African-American Greek organizations. But increased security measures have allowed groups like Phi Beta Sigma to use the union again. The plan to increase the safety of afterhours events was developed by a task force of students and administrators. Danny Kaiser, director of student organizations and leadership development, served as chairman of the task force. "We believe they have the things in place to reasonably have this event," Kaiser said. Kaiser said events must be scheduled two and a half weeks in advance, which allows time to check the backgrounds of disc jockeys and discuss security with campus officials. Groups that wish to hold events at the union are responsible for contacting the public safety office to arrange for security. New safety precautions include metal detectors and searches of attendees and their bags. People admitted to union parties must present photo IDs and cannot leave without paying to reenter. Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said that three officers would be working at tomorrow's event, monitoring both the parking lot and interior of the union. The public safety office provided security services to parties several years ago but then discontinued the practice, Mailen said. Starting up again for Saturday's event will mean extra costs for the fraternity. The officers will work the party at an overtime rate — $26.87 per hour — which fraternity members must pay. Hot weather drives record water demand By Melissa Davis writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Rising temperatures this week spurred record water use in Lawrence, leaving city officials urging residents to shut off their taps. The temperature was so high last week that Lawrence set a new record for water usage — 24.6 million gallons on Wednesday. According to city records, this was 1.2 million gallons more than the previous record, set on Tuesday. Officials at the city's two water Officials at th plants have been able to meet the demands from the increased water usage, but city officials are encouraging residents to conserve water, especially during the hot spell. "With the forecast calling for little relief, we are closely monitoring our ability to continue meeting high water demand," said Roger Coffey, utilities department director. Temperatures in the 100s have increased the chances of other problems beyond CONSERVING WATER TIPS Outdoor tips Water the lawn in the morning and avoid watering pavement. ■ Mulch landscape to reduce water loss. ■ Don't leave the water running when washing car.

"The dry ground has also led to an increase in water main breaks in the city in recent days," said Coffey in a written statement. Conserving water not only helps avoid problems, but also can help save money. Cynthia McCarvel, community relations specialist for Kansas Power and Light, said she thought conserving water could also save on energy bills. "A family of four spends about $24 dollars a month on water heat, which could add up in the long run," she said. City officials advise running full loads of dishes and large loads of clothes to save on water. Officials also have tips for saving water outdoors. They advise residents to avoid letting the水 run when washing cars or excessively watering the lawn. Watering in mid-day heat is discouraged, officials said, because the water will evaporate. They suggested people place sprinklers so that the water doesn't land on the pavement. Jean Thoma, the facilities office manager for the KU athletics corporation, said the sprinklers at the SuperTarget Field ran in the middle of the day because the field needs to be watered between practice times. But in some cases, watering mid-day can't be helped. "The schedule relates to when a team is scheduled to practice," Thoma said. "And to avoid risk of injury." The bottom line, officials say, is to use common sense with water use because there is little relief in sight. According to the National Weather Service, the heat is likely to continue through the weekend, with only a slight chance for evening thunderstorms. — Edited by Chris Borniger Freak out, party on © 1993 ABOVE: After the first day of classes, residents in Hashinger Hall spent the afternoon tie-dying and listening to music during Hippie Freak Fest.

One year ago, the average price for one gallon of Regular Unleaded gasoline in the state of Kansas cost $1.18. One month ago, the price for the same gallon of gasoline cost $1.43, and the current average in the state of Kansas is $1.41. One month ago in Topeka, the price for one gallon of Unleaded gas cost 1.38, and currently it costs $1.40. Jason Elliott / KANSAN Students treated to lower prices at gas stations Meahan Bainum Megan Baltimore writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer According to American Auto Association figures, gas prices in the Midwest dropped 13.9 cents per gallon during the last month. That's a welcome break, said JaneAnn Jensen, Ankney, Iowa junior. After a summer of sky-high gas prices, KU students heading back to school got a lucky break at the pump. Currently, in Lawrence, gas prices are falling to between $1.33 and $1.42 per gallon. Although these prices are more reasonable than summer prices, Cherie Sage, public affairs coordinator for AAA of Kansas, said there was no way to tell what the prices would do next. "Yesterday I filled up for only $13." Jensen said. "This summer I was paying 17 or 18 dollars a time — It was ridiculous." GAS SAVING "You can have all the analysts in the world saying what they think is going to happen, but that isn't necessarily what will happen," Sage said. Sage said because school had begun Consolidate trips and errands to cut down on driving time. Slow down The faster the vehicle travels, the more gas it burns. Keep tires inflated and all systems operating properly. If the vehicle doesn't need premium or mid-grade gas, purchase regular unleaded gas. Avoid quick starts Don't haul extra weight in the vehicle. Use the air conditioner only when needed. If AC is necessary, use the "economy" or "recirculation" setting. Source: AAA Gas Watcher's Guide and the summer travel season had ended, the demand for gas had gone down and prices should follow. Despite the back-to-school price break, students like Jensen said they felt they still had to dig too deeply into their pockets to put gas in their cars. "When I first moved to Lawrence two years ago, I only paid 80 to 90 cents a gallon," she said. According to the AAA figures, gas prices have increased about 24 cents in the past year, but Sage said that she didn't expect any sort of gas price crisis. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, which is in charge of most of the crude oil used to make gas, is willing to keep prices at what it considers to be a reasonable level, Sage said. Still, Jensen, like many students, wondered why that level had to be so expensive. Drew Voogele, Overland Park sophomore, blamed the price increase on OPEC. "Oil should just be dirt cheap — prices shouldn't go up just because they don't feel like pumping it." Voegle said about OPEC. "Gas should cost a dollar." But for now, it costs more than a dollar per gallon to drive in Lawrence. Jensen said that she would try to walk more and carpool when gas prices head skyward. Voojege, however, said he had other ways to get around a possible gas crunch. "I'll continue having my dad pay for my gas," he said. v — Edited by J. R.

Douglas County District Court Judge Michael J. Malone sentenced Trent J. Percival and Kerry M. Duggan to 30 days in the Douglas County jail and 36 months of probation. Percival and Duggan were charged with aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery. Lawrence police reported that on Feb. 22, Percival, 20, and Duggan, 19, entered a home and threatened a 20-year-old KU student with a gun. The student's roommates — a 19-year-old KU student and a 22year-old Lawrence resident — also were at the time. Percival and Duggan took a metal lockbox valued at $16 and left the home. Lauren Brandenburg String of robberies hits three local businesses Three Lawrence businesses have been the targets of a recent string of robberies. A man robbed the Presto Conoco, 1802 W. 23rd St., at midnight Wednesday, said Detective M.T. Brown of the Lawrence police. The clerk was closing the store and thought he had secured the front doors, but then he heard someone come in. The suspect pushed something into the clerk's back and ordered him to the ground. The clerk couldn't tell whether the suspect had a weapon because the man had his hand hidden in the sleeve of his sweatshirt. The clerk stayed on the ground in the back of the store while the man emptied the register and left. Brown described the suspect as a black male, about 6 feet tall and 150 pounds. Spirit Liquor, 600 Lawrence Ave., and Jayhawk Food Mart, 701 W. Ninth St., were robbed at gunpoint this week. A man carrying a gun and wearing a ski mask entered Spirit Liquor at 8:52 p.m. Tuesday. The suspect demanded cash, ordered the clerk to the floor and fled with the money. The suspect was described as a white male, between 5-feet-9-inches and 5-feet-11-inches tall. At 10:58 p.m. Wednesday night, a man entered Jayhawk Food Mart, made the same demands and left the scene. The suspect was described as a 25- to 30-year-old white male, about 6-feet-tall and 180 pounds. Police did not say whether the incl NATION Reform Party struggles to choose candidates DES MOINES, Iowa — Iowa election officials drew Pat Buchanan's name from a glass bowl yesterday after a raucous exchange between Reform Party factions fighting for a spot on the state's November ballot. Rival John Hagelin was the winner in a film-can drawing in Montana. Buchanan's name was pulled off the ballot in California. Two weeks after the party's national convention was supposed to choose a nominee, the battle continues between Buchanan, the former Republican, and Hagelin, the Natural Law candidate embraced by supporters of party founder Ross Perot. State election officials, facing deadlines for printing ballots, are caught in the middle, sometimes even resorting to lotteries. Tests find combination of rising, falling ability WASHINGTON — America's schoolchildren are doing a little better in mathematics than they were a decade ago, but for many of them reading and science skills have declined slightly since 1992. The government's 1999 National Assessment of Education Progress also shows a widening gap in the test performance of Caucasian and African-American elementary school students on reading, math and science. And African-American 17-year-olds on average are still four years behind Caucasians in their reading skills. Sure to become fodder for the presidential campaign, the report paints a mixed picture of improving and falling test scores and narrowing and widening learning gaps. Plane wreck leaves 143 passengers dead MINA SALMAN PORT, Bahrain — A man's black shoe, a plastic sandal and bits of yellow foam padding bobbed yesterday in the waters off this tiny island nation, where families were burying loved ones a day after Gulf Air Flight 072 crashed, killing all 143 aboard. Bahraini authorities and U.S. Navy divers based in the Gulf recovered both "black boxes" — the flight data and voice cockpit recorders — near where the plane slammed into shallow water off Bahrain's shore. Neither box appeared damaged, according to Bahrain civil defense chief James Windsor, who received the voice cockpit recorder yesterday from U.S. Navy divers. The Associated Press Heating bills may go up CHICAGO — Already walloped by a rise in gasoline prices this year, Americans are now about to face steeper home heating bills, with natural gas and heating oil near historic highs. The Associated Press Energy markets were jolted this week by a combination of developments that sent prices shooting higher — an unexpected drop in U.S. crude oil stockpiles, a pipeline explosion in New Mexico and a hurricane in the Caribbean. Soon the aftershocks will be felt by consumers nationwide. Regardless of whether a homeowner uses natural gas or heating oil, there appears to be no way around prices heading higher than they were last winter. Suzanne deGraff, a natural gas customer from Rochester, N.Y., said she had been told her monthly bill from Rochester Gas and Electric Co. will jump about $26 to $130. If further disruptions or heavy demand drain dwindling stockpiles further, rationing and industrial shutdowns are a pretty good possibility this winter, especially involving natural gas, said Michael Lynch, analyst with WEFA, an economic think tank in Bedford, Mass. Experts said consumers could skate by this winter only if last year's warmest winter on record was followed by one just as warm or warmer. But according to at least some meteorologists, the pattern of historically warm winters is at an end. "If we have a winter that's just normal, we're going to see potentially astronomical natural gas prices much higher than we see today," said David Chang, senior energy trader for Bank of America in New York. Home heating oil prices surged this week to their highest level since the Gulf War, with inventories of U.S. crude dropping to 24-year lows. Heating oil is now more than 50 percent more expensive than a year ago. The increase is blamed partly on a cutback in production by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Natural gas also has rocketed upward as prices have more than doubled in the past year and a hall and reached an all-time high of $4.85 per 1,000 cubic feet this week on the New York Merc.

A sleeping Lawrence resident was awakened at 2 a.m. yesterday when a 1989 Ford Mustang struck her house at 2419 Yale St, "I heard a loud boom, and the house shook," said homeowner C.R. Wiley. "Of course, I was sound asleep. I thought there had been an explosion somewhere, but then my little doggie started barking. I peered out the window and saw a man sitting outside under a tree in my front yard, which scared me to death." Wiley called the police, but her neighbor had already reported the accident. Lawrence Police Det. M.T. Brown said that Lawrence resident Aaron William Catloth, 22, was speeding and turning when he struck a stone wall on Wiley's house. "He came barreling down Rockledge, and my house is right at the corner," Wiley said. "If I hadn't had that stone half way up the front of the house, it would have been in my house." Wiley said the car pushed in the wall of a bedroom and damaged the window but did not damage furniture. Wiley said she would not know any damage estimates until a professional contractor came to examine it. Catloth was arrested and booked into the Douglas County jail on charges of operating under the influence, no proof of insurance and reckless driving. He was released yesterday on $850 bond. A neighbor saw a passenger in Catloth's car flee the scene. Edited by John Auldholm Senate Outreach Week aims at recruiting — Edited by John Audelhelm By Kursten Phelps writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Don't be fooled. Student Senate elections aren't next week, but Senate officials and senators will be camped out at Wescoe Beach. Kim Fuchs, Student Executive Committee chairwoman, said the main motivation behind Senate Outreach Week was to recruit new members for Senate standing committees. "Committees are the main way to get involved at first in Senate." Fuchs said. "We want to give Student Senate some exposure to the student body." Information tables will provide information and applications for the Finance, Graduate Affairs, Multicultural Affairs, Student Rights and University Affairs committees at Wescoe Beach from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. all next week Outreach Week wraps up on Tuesday, Sept. 5, before the first committee meetings and orientation on Wednesday, Sept. 6. "We'll be out there answering questions about what Senate is doing and not doing," Fuchs said. "We're going all the way with it Board will also be available. STUDENT THE UNIVERSITY OF ENGLAND SENATE this year. There's always the image of Student Senate getting out there at election time, but now is the time to serve the students." Fuchs said she hoped that Senate's presence on campus would give Senate positive exposure to students and encourage more committee participation. "It would be ideal if we could be out there every day all year," Fuchs said. "I would love to see record numbers of people joining committees and keeping those numbers high throughout the semester." Fuchs said that although committee recruitment would be a big part of Outreach Week, keeping new committee members involved would be an important issue this year. "we want to keep them engaged in what we're doing. If someone realizes Student Senate's not for them, it's not for them," Fuchs said. "But we don't want them quitting committees because they're bored or because there's nothing for them to do." Erin Day, St. Francis junior and Nunemaker senator, said she thought Outreach Week was a great way to start off the year. — Edited by Shawn Hutchinson "One of the main concerns of the student body is that senators aren't doing enough for the students," Day said. "It's a great way to get the campus in touch with us and us in touch with the campus to hear what issues are really important to students." Egyptian Hieroglyphic Inscription The 3,000 year old Egyptian scroll is made from papyrus plants which were common along the Nile River during the time of its creation. This rare Egyptian scroll, donated to the University of Kansas by Jake Ballard, Overland Park senior, previously hung in the Ballard family's dining room. Photos by Selena Jabara/KANSAN Egyptian manuscript donated by student's family Bv Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer A rare, 3,000 year-old papyrus scroll took another step on its historical journey when it was donated to the University of Kansas last Friday. John Ballard, a 1973 KU alumnus, and his wife Cindy donated the Egyptian scroll, which they bought three years ago at a Kansas City, Mo., public library auction. The scroll hung on the Ballards' Overland Park dining room wall and was a conversation piece until their son, Jake, took the class Understanding the Bible, taught by Paul Mirecki, associate professor of religious studies. After a lecture on manuscripts, Jake asked Mirecki if he would take a look at the scroll. Ballard, Overland Park senior, said. "I won- dered if he could tell us." "We'd always thought it was fake," Jake Mirecki didn't expect an ancient Egyptian scroll to pop up in Kansas. "I knew this wasn't a counterfeit," said Mirecki, who has extensive experience studying ancient manuscripts. "It was a genuine, old scroll." Mireck's further study of the style of writing and drawings dated the manuscript at about 950 B.C. The scroll is a guide to the after-life, known as the "Amduat," which is similar to the book of the dead. Mireck said a new, unstudied scroll like this only turns up every couple of decades. Mirecki has been studying the scroll and using it as a classroom example for more than a year now, ever since Jake Ballard brought it in. After talking with the Ballards, they decided to donate the scroll to the University. "They can put it to better use and value it more than we can," Cindy Ballard said. That makes Mirecki and other professors harry. "Undergraduates taking a 100 level class will not only hear about ancient Egypt but can go into the library and actually see a manuscript," Mirecki said. The scroll will be T Richard Clement, special collections librarian. This is the first complete scroll in the collections. "It's something that I've only been able to talk about or show pictures," said Clement, who also teaches a class on the history of the book. "Now we have the real thing. It makes such a difference." Clement said the library would move the manuscript to a casing appropriate to preserving ancient documents. While there are no plans to add more ancient scrolls to the collection, the Ballards are keeping their eyes open. "We're not collectors of antiquities or anything," Cindy Ballard said. "It's just something that caught our eye. But we'll keep looking." Businesses to accept local currency — Edited by John Audlehelm writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Bv Matt Merkel-Hess William S. Burroughs June 2000 000247 REAL DOLLARS Hold on to your pocketbooks — a new currency is coming to town. Known as REAL money, which stands for Realizing Economic Alternatives in Lawrence, the bucks are already rolling with a $3 Burroughs bill featuring pictures of the late writer and Lawrence resident William S. Burroughs. The Lawrence Trade Organization introduces REAL money to keep Lawrence money in local businesses. Photo by Selena Jabara / KANSAN Made by the Lawrence Trade Organization, the bill is worth three U.S. dollars and can be used at participating Lawrence businesses. The idea is to keep local money circulating through local businesses and service providers, said Kris Olsen, trade organization member. "Everyone who sees or uses the dollars will benefit," Olsen said. "Businesses will benefit because REAL dollars are more likely to be returned to them because they will be spent and used locally." Currently Amazing Grains Bakery, 518 E. Eighth St.; Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.; and Lawrence attorney Bruce Plenk have agreed to take the money. Anyone can trade federal money for the Lawrence cash at Liberty Hall and beginning Friday, Sept. 1, at the Free State Credit Union located in the Community Mercantile Co-Op, 901 Mississippi St. The REAL money can also be purchased from the organization's Web site — www.lto.lawrence.ks.us. Although Amazing Grains has yet to have a transaction with any of the new bills, Honna Veerkamp, a partner with the bakery, said supporting Lawrence was a priority for the business. "It keeps the economy local rather than supporting big corporate chains or the money going somewhere else," Veerkamp said. "It keeps it in the community." The organization is working to expand the number of businesses offering the cash and in September will print bills in $1 and $10 denominations. The new bills will feature Pelathe, a Native American who warned abolitionist citizens of Lawrence about William Quantrill's raid in the 1800s, and Langston Hughes, an American poet who was born in Lawrence. The U.S. dollars earned by selling the REAL dollars will be used to print more money and to produce a semiannual listing of members, Olsen said. The REAL dollars were printed at Kansas Key Press in Lawrence on denim paper donated by Crane and Co. of Dalton, Mass. The denim paper is made of cotton blue jeans scraps and white-cotton underwear trimmings. Crane and Co. also produces the paper used for U.S. currency. The organization will have an educational forum to present the currency to the public at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 9, in the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St. For more information, contact the organization at 841-8796, boog59@juno.com or write to P.O.

Before more than 150 students, Strikwerda learned that he was one of this year's winners of the $5,000 W.T. Kemper Fellowships for Teaching Excellence. “It’s a privilege to teach at KU.” Strikwerda told his audience at the lecture room in Summerfield Hall. “It’s wonderful to get paid for something you love to do.” Cara Nether, Denver sophomore, was excited about Strikwerda's honor. "It's kind of cool that our teacher is recognized by the entire school as a good teacher," she said. "It makes you want to learn all you can from him." Strikwerda said he would use the money to take his wife out to dinner and pay some bills. During a break in the classroom visits. Hemenway expressed his enthusiasm for the tradition of distributing the awards at the beginning of the fall semester. "This is one of the most enjoyable tasks that the chancellor has the privilege to perform every year," he said. Hemenway and the group also visited Mary Lee Hummert's class yesterday morning in Malot Hall. Hummert, associate professor of communication studies, said she felt honored to be selected for the award. "Actually, it's very humbling when you think about how many faculty are deserving of an award like this," she said. "I'm indebted to my department and my students for their support." Paul Friedman, associate professor of communication studies, said he wasn't surprised that his colleague had won the award because she was an outstanding educator. "She's a very dedicated, caring, understanding teacher about whom many students speak very highly," Friedman said. "So the award certainly is well-denured." Ten other faculty members received awards yesterday. Eight more winners will be announced in classroom visits today and early next week for a total of 20 winners. The awards, which began in 1996 as a five-year program, are funded by the W.T. Kemper Foundation- Commerce Bank, Trustee and the Endowment Association. Hemenway said yesterday that the University would have enough money and support to continue the Kemper program. KEMPER RECIPIENTS Yesterday's winners of the W.T.

Did someone say politics? Relax. It's just a mental exercise. Let's start by setting the scene. Let's suppose we're all guilty of subscribing to a particular public university called the University of Kansas. Let's suppose that public universities such as ours have a tendency toward the liberal side of things, meaning that we generally like to recycle old cans and bottles, and that we tend to cringe when we hear things such as nuclear submarine engines leaking radioactive waste off the Baltic coast. We'd be leaning toward the liberal, I'm positing, because we don't feel the terms homosexuality and Christianity are mutually exclusive. You see how these scales are tipped. What's the exercise, you simple enough. The question is, to Green or not to Green? "Green?" you're saying. "But there's no point in voting Green, however disgruntled a voter I might be." Fact is, Nader hasn't got a chance of becoming the next American C.E.O., no matter how refreshing his candidacy is. MARGARET SMITH But as your mental aerobics instructor, you must trust me. I know when the workout begins. What I improve is Ramona DeNies columnist opinion@kansan.com begins. What process has no decision-making process for political lightweight. We've got to think, work those cerebral cortexes. The argument goes like this: Most of us are liberal student types and the "liberal" candidate is Al Gore. No doubt you, too, can overlook those watery, pixelated eyes on screen and believe he's unaffected by corporate interests unlike that nasty Dubya. Having faith in the benevolence of your leaders, that's called. Sarcasm aside, the fact remains that American bipartisanism has become increasingly amorphous. Gore or Bush: what'll it be? Choose your poison, they'll most likely have the same effect. And we youngest of voters throw up our hands. Why bother when the candidates are virtually identical? What does it matter when politics continue ad nauseum, with the leading country of the free world steamrolling its way into the 21st century? The question we must ask ourselves is, do we want to cast our ballots in the hopes that a third political party might gather strength and grow in credibility until it can challenge the antiquated bipartisan system? Or do we wish to simply avoid the inauguration of Bush.Jr.? After all, as the argument goes: If you vote for Nader, you inadvertently vote for Bush. And in detracting votes from the Gore constituency, you fragment the "liberal" voting block, an awful position to be in, involuntarily paving the way for conservative ascendancy. I must admit that I would have buckled and voted for Gore had I not been convinced of the long-term benefits of supporting a party that has recently been snowballing in popularity. You see, when you elect a figurehead leader such as the president, you are, in fact, electing an administration appointed by that figurehead leader. When you usher in one party above another, the actual consequences for the nation reach deep into the roots of government. The question we have to ask ourselves is: Why are we not voting to represent our desire to legislate change? The Green Party currently has the support of more than eight percent of Americans. Only five percent of the general election vote for any party grants that party access to federal campaign funding. Essentially, if we do not vote Green, I wonder what it will take to engender a viable third party in American politics. We have since ceased to believe we are a black-and-white society. Why, therefore, do we persist in promoting a black and white political infrastructure? If that eight percent proves stable, two major things will be accomplished: The Green Party will have proven itself viable to a public convinced it has no options, and it will oblige the reigning politicos to take heed of the radicalizing of the politics of the American people. The question is posed. Sharpen your wits, fellow Jayhawks. Who do you think is thinking if you're not? DeLéon is a Portland, Ore. senior in English and Latin American studies. SUMMER 2000 THE ORIENTAL PRESENTS FIRESTONE FIRESTONE DANA SUMMERS / TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES Heard on the Hill Whose responsibility is campus safety? "The KU security department should be responsible for the safety of students and professors on campus." Usman Murtaza Pakistan junior 10 "I think each residence hall should have someone to help provide for safety, to escort people, especially girls, to their cars or wherever they need to go." Amber Wilson Garrett sophomore 10 "I think people should take personal responsibility to ensure they don't put themselves in a dangerous situation. Maybe they should use something like the buddy system." A Seth Sundquist Moundridge freshman "The KUPD should be held responsible. Students should also take some responsibility on their own, but campus safety is chiefly the responsibility of the KUPD." Genyse Whyte Baltimore junior Perspective Boring elections loom Whenever someone mentions this election season, one word comes to mind: Yuck. My palate for politics is bored. Until now, government always has fascinated me. When I was growing up, one of my primary reading materials was an unabridged Webster's Dictionary with a section containing profiles of all the United States presidents. The first things I read were summaries of their lives and administrations. I was hooked. Something struck me about all the esteem the president commands. I must have read those profiles hundreds of times. Immersed in reverence for the presidency, I memorized every mundane detail about their lives. Many of my friends refuse to play Trivial Pursuit with me as a result. Public service still engages me, but I find myself growing more disenchanted with it. So do most young voters. Just look at the rates of voter turnout for 18- to 24-year-olds. In 1972, half of the voters in this age range voted. Since then, that rate steadily has declined. In 1996, fewer than one in three went to the polls. In 1998, fewer than one in five voted. Those numbers are catalysts for movements such as Kids Voting Kansas, in which I participated as a high school senior. The organizers of this program hypothesized that fostering an interest in voting would increase the likelihood that they would vote when they turned 18. Chris Borniger managing editor editor@kanan.com I still believe in voting. If I don't go to the polls, how can I complain about the people who make the rules? That's a right I wouldn't surrender for anything in the world. But I can already see that I'm going to dread this trip to the voting booth. In this case, it truly is a case of choosing the lesser of two evils. What happened to the idyllic image of democracy I envisioned from reading my history textbooks in grade school? It's been obliterated and replaced with images from CNN and C-SPAN of nonstop bickering, hollow jargon and disturbingly adamant partisanship. On the one hand, there's Al Gore — a walking nap. On the other hand, there's George W. Bush, the one who's financing his campaign with a checkbook the size of the state he governs. Both are sons of prominent politicians. Both are wealthy white males. Yuck, indeed. How do we break the vicious cycle of voter disenchantment? Young people say that they want a voice, that they want lawmakers to listen. Why should I kiss your ass, the elected official retorts, when statistics show you probably won't vote anyway? It's exhausting. The way things are going, we'll need to be bribed with Abercrombie & Fitch coupons. Or with beer. In the political chess game, we're not even relevant enough to be pawns. Frankly, I'd rather play Trivial Pursuit. If only I could find an opponent. Sigh.

Editorial Suspension of players good start Athletics department still needs to do something about accused football team members. Though the athletics department's decision to suspend the two Kansas football players accused of sexually assaulting a female soccer player last spring is a step closer to a resolution, the department has more to do. Though one player had already been expelled for poor grades, the athletics department refused renewal of his scholarship and suspended him from the team. The other player is in academic good standing but on probation pending the results of district attorney Christine Tonkovich's investigation. The department should have acted sooner in dealing with the football players' actions. Action against the athletes was delayed almost six months, a time too long to deal with complaints as serious as the female soccer player's. The athlete who remains at the University will still be eligible to compete this fall. Considering the gravity of these complaints, the football player should be barred from games until Tonkovich makes a decision whether the district attorney's office will prosecute. Doug Vance, assistant director of media relations for the athletics department, said probation was the penalty closest to suspension from the team. According to a statement issued by the female soccer player, both football players touched her inappropriately. Since both men supposedly participated in the sexual assault, both men should receive the same punishment. The remaining football player's inclusion on the team raises questions regarding the convenient academic dismissal of the other player. The KU athletics department's in-house handling of the situation was poor enough to begin with. The follow-up investigation and the football team's disciplinary actions were the department's chance to clear its tarnished image by providing clear closure to the scandal and taking a strong stand against sexual harassment. The athletics department and the football team's actions have not resolved doubts in the back of people's minds about the department's commitment to take sexual assault seriously. Barbara Ballard, assistant vice-chancellor of student affairs, said she was conducting an independent review of the athletics department's off-campus sexual harassment and sexual assault policy. She said that her report would be forthcoming soon. In the mean time, the athletics department should take decisive action by barring the remaining player from games until Tonkovich's decision is made.

McKenna writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The University of Kansas greek community loses one of its leaders today. Bill Nelson will walk out the doors of his office for the last time tonight and head for Ames, Iowa. Nelson, director of greek programs, said he resigned to pursue a doctorate in higher education at Iowa State University. Nelson, however, doesn't leave empty-handed. He takes with him the memory of his contributions to the University of Kansas and the praise of his colleagues Ann Eversole, interim dean of students, hired Nelson in 1992. She cites Nelson for his contributions to the Greek community and the University of Kansas' leadership program as well as other programs. Danny Kaiser, director of the student organization and leadership center, said the greek community improved under Nelson's watch. "We moved from being a university with a good greek community to having one of the best in the country." Kaiser said. Kaiser touted Nelson's accomplishments in helping chapters plan parties and community service events. "He helped with a reduction of after-hours parties, which, if not managed well, are just flat out unsafe," Kaiser said. "Community service has moved to the Nelson said he was proud that many greek organizations had adopted "dry house" policies during his tenure. "The re-examination of the role alcohol plays in fraternities and sororites has been a very meaningful dialogue and has led to powerful change." Nelson said. forefront." Interfraternity Council President Sam MacKoberts, Leawood senior, agreed that Nelson had made a tremendous impact on the greek community. "He created a strong foundation at the University and we're going to keep building on it," MacRoberts said. "We're going to miss Bill's leadership and friendship." Kaiser said he planed to begin interviewing possible replacements next week. He said he was looking for someone with experience from another university or greek system, and someone who has dealt with alcohol-free housing. "We don't want someone focused on problems, but who will bolster our strengths." Kaiser said. Kaiser said he would continue interviewing for several weeks but hoped to announce a replacement by the second week of September. During the interim, Kelly Jo Karnes, assistant director of greek programs, will handle most of Nelson's former duties. Edited by Kimberly Thompson Germ exposure may prevent asthma By Jason Krall writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Exposure to germs in early childhood may be linked to strengthened defense mechanisms against developing asthma, a new study reports. study. The study, which appears in the New England Journal of Medicine, doesn't recommend that parents encourage their children to get sick. But it does claim that children who attend day care, especially within the first six months, are better able to resist asthma because of the immunity they build against germs picked up from their peers. Exposure to older siblings helps as well, according to the study. "For those of us who share the furtive guilt of having left marginally ill toddlers at day care, these findings also offer a sense of relief," says an editorial accompanying the About a half million Americans are hospitalized because of asthma attacks each year, and the disorder causes more than 5,000 deaths per year, according to statistics from Watkins Health Center. Nick Serrault, Omaha, Neb., junior, said his case was an exception to the study. He has had asthma as long as he can remember and he attended day care at an early age and has an older brother. Some scientists are questioning the study's conclusions, claiming that there isn't enough information on how and at what age the critical immune mechanisms are developed. And it's difficult to weigh the health risks of exposing children to germs against the prospect of developing asthma, which usually is treatable with inhaled medication. Serritt said the disease had been little more than an inconvenience. for him. "It never stopped me from doing anything I wanted to do," he said, noting that he has always played sports. Researchers say they made the connection between asthma and germ exposure while studying health problems in Africa. Asthma cases are rare in less-developed nations because such strong defense builds up against infection and disease, the study said. But many other factors can contribute to asthma, said Robert Brown, a physician at Watkins. Smoking, for example, can cause asthma and other respiratory problems in teenagers and adults, or strengthen the symptoms of asthma for those who already have it. "There have been conflicting studies on this," Brown said. "It's too early to form any real conclusions." —Edited by Erin McDaniel Sick of High Prices? Get cured with Dr. Mike!

Put them all on the same day and in a 75-mile radius on a crowded turnpike and you have the formula for gridlock. That's what Kansas Turnpike Authority officials are bracing for this weekend as major events collide head-on with road construction on the key northeast Kansas artery. The three events are the Kansas State-Iowa football game at Arrowhead Stadium and 'yallapalooa 2000 country music concert at Sandstone Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, both Saturday afternoon. Race fans will gather at Heartland Park Topeka the same day for Truckstock 2000. Motorists are being warned to expect rush-hour-style traffic between Lawrence and Topeka and near the Bonner Springs interchange. Both areas are under major reconstruction. "If everything goes normally, we should be able to handle all the traffic through the construction zone without any trouble," said Lisa Callahan, director of public relations for the Turnpike Authority. "But if there is any trouble, like a flat tire or a car overheats, that is what will cause us some problems." The biggest potential bottleneck is near construction of the Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. Traffic is down to one lane east and west on Interstate 70 for about two miles between 118th Street and Interstate 435. The highway is being widened to handle traffic at the speedway starting next summer. Also, five miles between Lawrence and Topeka are reduced to one lane for road reconstruction. "Those events will put a large number of people on the road at a similar time," said Kim Stich, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Transportation. "If you wait to leave closer to the starting time of the events, you could get caught in More information Additional information about how Kansas City is preparing for the large crowds expected for the Kansas State-lowa football game. See page 5B traffic." The turnpike authority and Kansas Highway Patrol each plan additional patrols to alleviate potential snafus. "But once traffic stops, it takes a while to get it started moving again," Callahan said. Highway officials don't know how many vehicles will be on the roadway. "If all the traffic comes at once, you will have a problem." Callahan said. About 45,000 Kansas State fans are expected to converge on Arrowhead, said Carol Adolph, the school's athletic ticket manager. Christiane Miles, theater manager for Sandstone, said an expected crowd of 14,000 was encouraged to take any road but I-70. Gas leak likely cause of blast The Associated Press RUSSELL — Investigators said a natural gas leak in the basement of the municipal power plant was the likely cause of an explosion that destroyed the plant and left 5,000 people in the dark. Stan Morton, an investigator for the Kansas Gas Service, said yesterday morning that a leak in a connection inside the Russell plant was the likely culprit. But it may be several weeks before investigators can pinpoint the source of the leak. A series of explosions just before midnight Wednesday destroyed the power plant, which was built around 1920. Two workers were burned and in serious but stable condition at a Wichita hospital. Wayne Grabbe, Russell County spokesman, said the first blast was around 11:50 p.m. "We had three explosions, and flames were 75 to 100 feet in the air," Grabbe said. "It burned most of the roof off the building." Much of Russell was without power after the blast. Eight central Kansas fire departments helped to bring the blaze under control around 1:30 a.m. Thursday, and power was restored an hour later after the city arranged to connect to West Plains Energy in Great Bend, about 35 miles away. Two plant workers from Russell suffered burns and were flown to a Wichita hospital. Jim Hlaus, 55, had burns on his arms and hands but was listed in good condition. Craig Sanford, 43. was burned on much of his upper body and was in serious condition. Grabbe said. An investigation was under way yesterday morning. "There is still a structure, but it's pretty badly beat up." Grabbe said. "The explosion must have been massive." The plant, built mainly of brick and steel, was renovated in the late 1980s, Unrein said. Twelve to 15 employees will be out of work for more than a year while the plant is rebuilt. Arlin Unrein, Russell public works director, said city officials were meeting yesterday morning to discuss rebuilding options. He estimated the cost at $10 million to $20 million to rebuild, which should be covered by insurance.

Margaret G. Kivelson, a space physics scientist, said the evidence from a magnetic field detection device on the Galileo spacecraft gives the strongest evidence yet that Europa has water below a thick outer layer of ice. "This is not absolute proof that there is a salty ocean there," said Kivelson, a researcher at the UCLA. "The evidence is indirect." But nobody has been able to come up with another sensible explanation." Kivelson is first author of a study appearing Friday in the journal Science. Proof of liquid water on Europa is a good first step toward finding life on the Jovian moon, she said. "It is a long way from finding water to finding life, but it certainly makes it a more intriguing possibility." Kivelson said. Earlier studies of Europa show it with a thick layer of ice. Experts had suggested that there might be liquid water beneath the ice, but until now there was little evidence to support that idea. Kivelson and her colleagues used a magnetometer to take readings while the Galileo spacecraft passed close to Europa last January. She said the pattern of the moon's internal magnetic field was consistent with the presence of an ocean on the Jovian satellite. She said the pattern suggested a body with liquid water at least 4 1/2 miles deep, covered with ice that could be a half a mile to six miles thick. David Stevenson of the California Institute of Technology said in Science that the most likely explanation for the findings of Kivelson and her team was that Europa had a salty, global water ocean beneath its ice shell. Incoming Mexican leader praised The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Mexican President-elect Vicente Fox drew praise from Al Gore and George W. Bush on Thursday, but the two presidential candidates' neighborliness was mixed with reservations — especially from Bush — about Fox's proposal to eventually open the U.S.-Mexican border. On a visit rife with political overtones both north and south of the border, Fox spent an hour with Gore strolling the grounds of the vice president's official residence and then went to the White For Bush, the Fox meeting underscores the one area where the Republican candidate has significant foreign relations experience, in dealing with Mexico as Texas governor.

For Fox, bringing suggestions for improving U.S.-Mexican ties even before he takes office — rather than simply waiting to react to U.S. "Mexico's commitment to the future has changed, and our responsibility is to take all this positive energy to go forth." Fox told reporters at the National Press Club. Gore's foreign policy team had touted the meeting with Fox as an example of his extensive contacts with foreign leaders. "We will never be that good friend, that good neighbor, that good partner, as long as Mexico is lagging way behind in development," he has said. He also has lamented the huge wage disparity between the United States and Mexico.

Authorities lifted an evacuation order for the Florida Keys but continued to watch the former hurricane for signs it might regenerate. Debby's winds dropped to about 40 mph, and, with no identifiable center, the remnants swirling between Cuba and Jamaica were no longer considered a tropical storm. There were still some strong winds in that area, said forecaster Laura Salvador of the National Hurricane Center in Miami. She warned that floods still could hit in Haiti, Cuba and Jamaica. "There is a possibility for regeneration later on," Salvador said. She said forecasters will be watching the system during the next three days in case its remnants rebuild and move toward the Gulf of Mexico. As Debby's center brushed past eastern Cuba earlier, authorities evacuated at least 7,000 people, including Haitians at a refugee camp.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: CALL 864-4264 GOP sends Clinton estate-tax bill The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Republican congressional leaders are sending the White House a bill to repeal estate taxes, inviting another veto confrontation with President Clinton and setting the stage for a September veto override attempt in Congress. The legislation, which would gradually phase out the estate tax during more than 10 years at a cost of $105 billion, passed the House and Senate earlier this summer with sizable Democratic support. But Republican leaders kept the bill tucked away on Capitol Hill, waiting for an opportune time to send it to Clinton. "A veto is a win for big government, high taxes and more stalemate," said Rep. Bill Archer, R-Texas, chairman of the House "The more people learn about the dangerous exploding nature of this tax plan, the less they like it." Jake Siewert White House representative Ways and Means Committee. "A signature is a win for families, small business owners and farmers who are haunted by this unfair tax." The bill was set Thursday to be delivered to the White House by a Montana farmer driving a tractor. House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., also planned an event at a farmer's market in Columbia, S.C., to highlight the effect estate taxes have on farmers, small businesses and hightech entrepreneurs. Under the Constitution, Clinton will have until just after Labor Day to sign or veto the bill, meaning GOP leaders could hold the override vote the first week or two after Congress returns from its summer recess. White House officials said Clinton would certainly veto it, saying it primarily benefits the wealthy and would consume $750 billion of projected surpluses during the 10 years after the tax is fully repealed. Saturday, August 26th "The more people learn about the dangerous exploding nature of this tax plan, the less they like it," said White House spokesman Jake Siewert. "We think you could do more targeted estate tax relief that takes care of the small businesses and family farms." FREE BAR-BQ! 5:30-7 p.m. 100% EVERYONE WELCOME!!

Students return to campus (or begin their college careers) after lazy summers at home watching television and find the usual back-to-school chaos. Stores are packed with college students trying to drain every last drop of money out of their parents before finding themselves on their own, selling plasma for alcohol money. Street, one question fills these despairing students' minds. It has nothing to do with classes or groceries. No, it's much more pressing. As they drag their parents through SuperTarget or down Massachusetts "How do I decorate my apartment?" they ask beseechingly. "What are the absolute college essentials that I should buy before beginning a long and torturous school year?" Well, my friends, I'm here to enlighten you. Gatesco Essential item one: the blender As with most college students, the first thing I think about when stocking my apartment is alcohol. Every good legal-age host should have a few beers to offer a legal-age guest, and every legal-age apartment needs a bottle of tequila or vodka (pick your poison) for when the need arises. volvia (pick your poison) for what you want. Therefore it is crucial to have a blender in a college apartment. Every college student should also have a nice minifrigerator to store beer close to the couch, but because those run $84.92 at Wal-Mart, 3300 Iowa St., a blender seems a little more practical. After all, think about how popular you'll be when your friends come over and you have a pitcher of nice, cold daquiris waiting for them. At SuperTarget, 3201 Iowa St., blenders range in price from $19.99 to $59.99, depending on the speeds (seven through 18 speeds are offered) and whether you want a glass or plastic container. At Wal-Mart,blenders are a bit cheaper,with prices beginning at $14.96. But Mike Ingram,Tulsa,Okla.,sophomore and Wal-Mart employee, said the least expensive might not be the best option. "I wouldn't buy any blender that was less than $29.99 because they probably won't last that long," Ingram said. "But it is important to have one. Blenders come in very handy for college students." Essential item two: the lava lamp Now that we've covered alcohol, let's talk decoration. Have you ever been to a cool party where the host didn't have a lava lamp in his or her living room? I have six in my apartment, and they come in handy in all sorts of situations. These decorations are fun in any mental condition including sobriety and they add color and fun to the living area. Lava lamps come in every color, from bright red to black, and can be purchased at many Lawrence retailers including 7th Heaven 1000 Massachusetts St., and SuperTarget for about $49.99. Alice Tippit, 7th Heaven employee and Kansas City Kan., junior, said the appeal of lava lamps wasn't so much the decoration itself as it was the culture that it represented. "I think people like them for the same reason they like peace signs — because they are like something from the '60s," Tippit said. "It's like something you would see in a crash pad or something."

Essential item three: the storage crate Because college students often are crimped for space any item that can help conserve space is a real treat. That's where college essential No. 3 comes in: storage crates. These handy little blocks can be stacked on top of one another, and because of their small size, they fit in just about any closet. And they are attractive enough that you can use them in your living room as end tables if you lack nice furniture. The best part is that they are cheap. The crates — sometimes sold under the brand name Yaffa blocks— come in packs of four for $12.99 at SuperTarget and $14.99 at Bed, Bath and Beyond in Kansas City, Kan. Kelvie Crabb, Lawrence graduate student, is no stranger to cramped living spaces. Two years after leaving the residence halls, she found herself in an apartment with a bedroom "not much bigger than a closet," as she likes to tell people. "Yaffa blocks were great because I didn't have much space to spare," Crabb said. "My bedroom wasn't nearly big enough to hold all my stuff, and I had to find an efficient way to store it all. Yaffa blocks worked perfectly, and you can get them with drawers." Essential item four: the beanbag chair Now that you've efficiently stored your stuff, added some color to your place and made a pitcher of margaritas, it's time to find a place for your friends to sit when they come over. Beanbag chairs are the perfect college-apartment furniture because they are light and transportable — yet comfortable. It doesn't matter if you spill a daquiri on them because it will wipe right off. You don't have to worry about listening to your mom scream when she sees what you've done to the sofa she loaned you. "They're really popular with college students because they are less expensive than nice chairs, but they are still comfortable," said Ashley Tarman, Lawrence senior. "They are comfortable and light, and they are great for lounging around, watching TV in." Tarman is an employee at Blue Heron, 921 Massachusetts and she said the furniture store often sold out of beanbag chairs. Blue Heron has single beanbags and the love-seat variety beginning at $135. 7th Heaven also carries trendy bean ba $199 for the jumbo leopard print but only $79 for regular ask for the jumbo leopard print but only $15 for Regular. So when your parents come to town to help you settle in remember these four college essentials: a blender, a lava lh storage crates and bean bags. With these fabulous items, y have a start on a great-looking apartment that all of your friends will love. — Edited by Kelly Clasen s P --- Section B The University Daily Kansan Sports They got game.

The game, invented in the 1970s by a group of Ivy League students, is becoming increasingly popular in the Midwest, and the Horror Zontals already have established rivalries with other universities in the area. It's in its 21st year on the University of Kansas campus, and the Horror Zontals currently are ranked second in the Midwest region. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN SUNDAY, JANUARY 15TH 7 Ultimate Frisbee spins into KU Michael Sudhalter sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter A group of University of Kansas athletes has been playing basketball, football and soccer simultaneously without a roundball or a pigskin. The Horror Zontals, the Ultimate Frisbee team that is entering its 21st year on campus, combines many of the elements of these popular and more well-known sports. "We have a lot of catching and receiving as well as a maximum of three steps like basketball," said Peter Hindman, Bartlesville, Okla. junior. "The pace of the game is similar to soccer." Ultimate Frisbee, which features the positions of handler, middle and long, was invented in the '70s by a group of Ivy League students. While the sport gains more attention on the East and West coasts, Kansas currently is ranked second in the Midwest region. The field is 70 yards long with two 25-yard end zones, and single points are received when the frisbee is caught in the end zone. Unlike other sports, Ultimate is played without a clock, and the majority of the games continue until a team scores 13 points. "There is definitely a possibility for growth since the sport isn't very old." --growth since the sport isn't very old." Laing said. "There have been pushes to get Ultimate Frisbee in the Goodwill Games." John Lang Olathe senior John Laing, Olathe senior, said that Ultimate Frisbee could become a game that people would sit down in front of the television and watch someday, given its recent growth in popularity. "There is definitely a possibility for The Horror Zontals already have rivalries with other universities in the region, such as Rice and Washington University of St. Louis. Two years ago, the Zontals won the Midwest region and were invited to the prestigious 16-team College Nationals tournament in Boulder, Colo. The Zontals are hoping to once again compete on a national level during the upcoming season.

Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Expecting another record-breaking season, the Kansas women's soccer team will begin its sixth year on the road, facing Northwestern today in Evanston, Ill., and Illinois on Sunday in Champaign, Ill. "The team is doing very well," coach Mark Francis said. "We are very happy with where they are now." Kansas enjoyed the most successful season in the program's history last year, setting or matching school records in wins (8), home wins (5), conference wins (3), points (87) and assists (29). But having added talented new players from other states and countries, the Jayhawks may rewrite those numbers this season and make their first appearance in the Big 12 Conference tournament. Sophomore forward Carmel Kaplinger played at Louisville last year, and led the Cardinals in scoring. Freshman midfielder Maggie Mason, sophomore goalkeeper Layla Young and freshman midfielder Jennifer Ray played on national teams this summer roughly the toughest — arguably the toughest competition around. competition The newcomers will definitely increase the competition at each position and make the practice environment more intense." Francis said. "The added depth makes our job as coaches more difficult, but that is a great problem for any coaching staff to have." Baker tasted the Jayhaws' strength last Saturday in a preseason exhibition match. Senior midfielder Colleen Colvin said that Kansas boasted many good players this season and didn't have to rely on one or two star players. Kansas fired 54 shots at Baker's goal and limited the Wildcats to only one goal attempt in the 3-0 victory. Northwestern finished the 1999 season with a 4-12-1 overall record and last in the Big Ten. Illinois went 12-8-2 overall and 3-5-2 in the Big Ten. Francis said Northwestern and Illinois would provide a slightly tougher competition than Baker. "We took so many shots, but we didn't score very many goals," he said. Despite the domination, Francis wasn't satisfied with the results. "If we can come back from this road trip with two wins, that will be huge," Francis said. "But more than that, it is going to be how we play." — Edited by John Audelholm By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Norris, 'Hawks pumped for football festivities Before all of the success began arriving at his doorstep, and before he was a key component of Kansas' offense, this was Moran Norris' favorite time of year. An added bonus is that there are no more two-a-day practices, which ended yesterday, just like summer vacation. Actually, it still is. Because he is a good student, he looks forward to the start of school both for himself and the students he tutors. And he will love tomorrow, when the Jayhawks participate in Kansas football's Get Ready Rally at Memorial Stadium. The Rally is in its fifth year and is designed to be a celebration of the beginning of the football season. Families, children and University of Kansas students are encouraged to attend the free festivities, which take place from 6 to 9:30 p.m. In between games, raffles and autographs, from 8 to 8:30 p.m. there will be a football pep rally. "we love it because it's fun to have the support of the community." Norris said. Norris, a senior running back, said he loved the event because of the kids who come to play the games that are set up on the field. Norris, who also is an assistant at Hillcrest Elementary during the season, enjoys signing autographs. And he doesn't get in a bad mood if some small kid comes up and punches him. "Sometimes the kids are a little intimidated by me at first," said Norris, who is 6-foot2, 250 pounds and holds the program's benchpress record (540 pounds). "But after a while, they get used to my size, and some kids will come try to beat me up. It's all a lot of fun." The event should be fun for everyone else, too. Usually held on Sundays, the event was switched to tomorrow night at coach Terry Allen's request to try to involve more KU students. "We want the student body to come out and enjoy this with us." Allen said. "It really is a good time for everyone." The first 2,000 fans receive minifootballs and the first 1,000 get food. There are also games and raffle prizes, and the football team will be there to sign autographs. The Rally also marks the first day students can pick up their allsports combo ticket package, which includes admission to football and men's basketball games. Rick Mullen, Kansas director of athletic promotions, said some of the packages are still available for anyone wondering how to get one. Out of the 6,300 combo passes sold, Mullen estimated that a few hundred remained because students sometimes forget to sign up for them during enrollment. Last year's Rally crowd was considerably low because of bad weather. Mullen estimated between 7,000 to 8,000 fans would show up tomorrow to kick off the season. "We think we'll get a big crowd." Mullen said. "This is the beginning of football season, and there is definitely a lot of excitement surrounding the team this year." — Edited by Shawn Hutchinson Sports Columnist Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Bagel guru's football pick is justified Ah, football season almost is upon us. Although most fans probably have grown tired of predictions about the upcoming college football season, here's how I see it. I'm not the most prolific predictor. An eternal optimist, I usually go into each football season thinking the Jawhayes probably will be in a bowl. But after the Jayhawks lost to San Diego State last fall at home, I became more of a realist. I wondered if the 'Hawks would win another game. Early last season, traditionally struggling Iowa State was building a decent football program, Missouri was fresh from a bowl appearance, and doormat Bavlor appeared to be scrappy. Kansas will end this season 8-3. But gradual improvement and a near upset of Nebraska has paved the way for Kansas' first winning season in the Terry Allen era. Yeah, yeah. How can the Jayhawks go from 4-7 to 8-? An omen. He told me I was more than welcome to join the team. The man wasn't wearing any coaching garb, so his offer seemed unsubstantiated. While getting a drink at a bagel shop downtown on Wednesday, a man approached me. He asked me if I played football at Kansas. I was flattered, but said no. He apparently didn't hear my reply, telling me that it was wonderful that I was playing here. I again said no, I just go to school here. He then asked me what kind of record I thought the Jayhawks would have. "Will they be like 7-4 or 8-3?" he said. Eerie, considering those records were in the vicinity of my prediction. Yeah, it could be a long shot, but the Jayhawks have been tabbed by some as the Big 12 Conference's dark horse, so perhaps my visions aren't too far fetched. Still, if this omen has any validity, the 'Hawks have a few things to take care of. If the Jayhawks can tackle that obstacle, an early schedule without the likes of Notre Dame or a Big 12 opponent would help them gain momentum going into the game at Oklahoma. A 3-0 start is extremely possible, but the first game is on the road and in SMU's new Ford Stadium. The Mustangs hope to climb back into respectability, and a season-opening win against Kansas wouldn't hurt. For the Jayhawks to be successful, they need wins on the road — a place they've only conquered once in Allen's tenure. The Jayhawks have won the last three meetings with the Sooners, but this year's Oklahoma installation is supposed to be tough. Along with winning on the road, the Jayhawks must fill holes in the defensive line. Junior Nate Dwyer is the only lineman with Division I experience. Junior college transfers Ervin Holloman and John Culp, both from Garden City, must produce immediately. A poor pass defense must improve, but another junior college transfer, Jamarel Bryant, should improve the secondary. Having a preseason All-American in senior free safety Carl Nehmith doesn't hurt, either. On offense, receivers must stay healthy this year. The Jayhawks have a strong chance at a very balanced offense if a finally healthy receiving corps can complement the Kansas backfield and solid quarterback Dylan Smith. This sounds like more of a wish list than a prediction, but the Jayhawks are on the verge of a good season in many categories. If the 'Hawks don't attain my lofty prediction, the guy at the bagel shop and I were insane. But a winning season definitely is within Kansas' reach. } Ulsenberger is a Washington, Kan., senior in journalism. 2 1 2B Quick Looks Friday August 25,1999 HOROSCOPES Today's birthday This year you gain through your service to others, and deep friendships are among the rewards.

R O H MEN'S BASKETBALL men's BASKETBALL LION Recruit will choose between two schools One of the nation's top guards narrowed his list to two schools yes terdy — and one of the fihalists was Kansas. Erroll Knight, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Seattle, told Pac-West Hoops that he would decide between either Kansas or Washington. Knight said both schools had their advantages and disadvantages. "The negative for Kansas is obviously the distance," Knight told PacWest. "I wouldn't be able to play in front of my friends and family. But the positives are it's a great school, a top-notch program, and a great coaching staff." Washington's main drawback is the state of the program, Knight said. 芭蕾舞团 "With Washington, the negative is probably just that the program has struggled recently," Knight said. "But the positives are I would be able to stay close to home. I know a lot of the in-state players and there are some good players coming in who can turn things around." Meanwhile, two more recruits added the Jayhawks to their lists of potential schools. Alan Anderson, a 6-foot-5 forward from Minneapolis, Minn., told Insiders Report that Kansas was one of five schools he was considering. Anderson said he was awaiting an in-home visit by the coaches of the schools before making any campus visits.

NFL Rison's legal problems continue, court date set KANSAS CITY, Mo. Oakland Raiders wide receiver Andre Rison was charged yesterday with four counts of passing bad checks totaling V The alleged incidents took place between June 1998 and December 1998, while Rison, 33, was with the Kansas City Chiefs. $158,000, the Jackson County prosecutor's office said. The checks were all written to the same jewelry store, according to the complaint. In the complaint, the store owner said Rison bought jewelry from him on six occasions. The charges cover the last four. Yesterday's charges are the latest in a series of legal struggles for Rison, who was waived by the Chiefs Aug. 14 after three years and picked up a week later by the Raiders. One week before being cut by the Chiefs, Rison was cited by police in River Falls, Wis., site of Kansas City's training camp. In the citation, officers alleged that he lied to them about his name following a bar fight. The offense is not considered criminal — Rison was fined $219.50 and has an appearance in municipal court set for Wednesday, Sept. 13. wite accused of murder Rison is also accused of stealing a $1,000 tape recorder from an Overland Park business.

Flag football season to start soon Weekend meetings to determine schedule By Aaron Johnson sports @kansan.com Kansas sportwriter The first day of class might have been ridiculously hot, but the season could hold enjoyment for those who want to participate in the upcoming flag football season. The flag-football hype begins with the managers' meeting at 7 p.m. Sunday at room 156 in Robinson Center. "It's real exciting on campus," Jason Krone, intramural director, said. "There is a lot of talk about who is on whose squad." He said flag football squads should send a representative to the meeting. They can hand in an active roster, pay the $30 fee and get scheduled ahead of teams that do not attend the meeting. Scheduling and sign-up are Tuesday through 7 p.m. Wednesday. Those who do not attend the managers' meeting have a chance to sign up beginning Wednesday at 2 p.m. "Your team representative should check with your team and come up with three or four times for scheduling," Krone said. "The numbers have always been pretty steady with around 100 teams, so the time slots will fill quickly." Okies begin Feday school. The intramural program provides jerseys, but players must provide the rest of their uniforms. Officials ask that players avoid steel and screw-in spikes in their shoes. The intramural flag football regular season lasts for three weeks and then enters into the playoffs, which splits the men's open division into men's open, men's greek and men's residence hall divisions. The same set-up goes for women. The co-recreational division has its own playoff. Winners of last year's tournament were TFC for the men's open division, Delta Upsilon in the greek division and the Advarks in the residence hall division. There was only one playoff in the women's division last year and the winner was Delta Delta Delta. The co-rec division saw Geriatric Juggernaught victorious last year. "This year is going to be a lot of fun," said Dan Johnson, St. Paul, Minn., sophomore. "A lot of teams pass first and run second and that should provide some exciting games." Another important part of the flag football season is the referees. This year, officials will receive a pay raise of $1.20, making the new rate $6.50 per game. The referees' meeting is at 8 p.m. Sunday in 156 Robinson after the managers' meeting. For those who would rather play in the sand than in the dirt, the sand volleyball season is also approaching. Sign-up is at 7 p.m. Sunday at 156 Robinson. - Edited by John Audlehelm Don't forget the 20% student discount on Kansan classifieds Sports Combo Pick Up & Sales Students: Pick up your Sports Combo for 2000!

It's already been the NFL's busiest division during the preseason, off the field and on. There's been tragedy, with the death of Chiefs star linebacker Derrick Thomas. There's been controversy, with Broncos linebacker Bill Romanowski dealing with an indictment for unlawful possession of a controlled substance, obtaining a controlled substance by fraud and deceit, and two counts of conspiracy. There's been a possible career resurrection by Ryan Leaf in San Diego. Seattle might have found the league's most sensational rookie in running back Shaun Alexander. And the Raiders, well, they've simply been the Raiders, which means nothing is predictable. Nor is the AFC West predictable. It's conceivable that all five teams will go deep into December with a shot at the division title. Only Denver wasn't in a position to make the playoffs down the stretch in 1999, and the Broncos may be the team to beat this year. If they can settle down after the disturbing Romanowski saga, the Broncos should be over the trauma of losing John Elway to retirement. They have Terrell Davis back from a knee injury, and some depth behind him in Olandis Gary. The best receiver in the AFC West for years has been Oakland's Tim Brown, but he's rarely had enough support to get the Raiders into the playoffs. They should have been there last year. All eight of the Raiders' losses came by seven points or less. To cure that and a weak kicking game that cost them field position, the Raiders made Sebastian Janikowski the first kicker taken in the opening round of the draft since 1979. Also at 8-8 last season was San Diego, a surprise because only Cleveland scored fewer points in the AFC. The Chargers' calling card was their defense, paced by the indomitable Junior Seau at linebacker and safety Rodney Harrison. Kansas City had the division in its grasp last year, then flopped down the stretch, as losses to Seattle and Oakland blew a chance at the division title and a playoff berth. Still, the Chiefs were 9-7 in a retooling season under first-year coach Gunther Cunningham. The Seahawks must deal with a late-season slump that nearly kept them from their first playoff berth since 1988. They won the division only because the Raiders edged the Chiefs in overtime in the season finale. Seattle coach Mike Holmgren must decipher whether the real Seahawks are the team that started 8-2 or the one that finished 1-5 and fell at home to Miami in the wild-card round. He also isn't sold on Jon Kitna at quarterback, but seems enamored of the game-breaking skills top-draft pick Alexander brings to the backfield. Prediction: Denver (10-6): Kansas City (9-7) Oakland (9-7): Seattle (8-8): San Diego (7-9) Horror Zontals take game to new heights Continued from page 1B Despite their on-field accomplishments, many of the team members agree that it is the camaraderie and commitment that make the group special. "We get to travel all around the country to warm places such as our ten-day trip to Savannah, Ga.," said Will Griggs, Topeka senior. "The sport helps us to be committed, to work with others and to teach others." While some of the players found out about Ultimate upon arrival at Kansas, others played informally with high school friends. Joe Shoffner, Williamsburg, Va., senior, found out about the sport in an unorthodox manner. "I was on the cross-country team in high school, and our coach made our Friday practices Ultimate Frisbee games," he said. Laing said that he decided he wanted to play Ultimate Frisbee after an encounter with some Horror Zontal members at his residence hall his freshman year. He also had the chance to play the game overseas while he studied abroad in England the following year. The team is open to recruiting players with little or no frisbee experience. However, many of the team members have previous experience in another sport. Brandon Eastland, Topeka senior, said he was optimistic about his first season with the Zontals. "This sport gives us great exercise, and we have a cool team," said Eastland, who played in a summer league. The team has three or four practices per week during which they run drills, scrimage and work on fundamentals. They plan to begin their fall practice Thursday and prep for a themed tournament in Razorback Country. The Zontals will go to Fayetteville, Ark. on Halloween weekend for the Harvest Moon tournament. Unlike ordinary Ultimate tournaments, Harvest Moon requires teams to dress up for the occasion. "Last year, our team had a 'Braveheart' theme," Hindman said. "We played Ultimate in kilts and face paint." — Edited by John Audlehelm Bottleneck 737 New Hampshire Lawrence, KS • (785) 841-LIVE Fri Aug 25 10 pm The Schwag Sat Aug 26 10 pm all ages • from Mudvayne relative ash factory 81 SON VENEZUELA Sun Aug 27 18+ CANNIBAL CORPS1 Nil9 Krisiun Th9 Crown Mon Aug 28 10pm OPEN MIC IMPORT NIGHT Tues Aug 29 Adv Tickets Fu Manchu Speedealer • Workhorse Movement Slurry Providing visual excitement for over 110 years 3rd annual free!

Martinez allowed five runs and six hits in the first inning, his worst opening inning since 1995. But after Mike Sweeney's home run made it 6-1 with two outs in the second, Boston's reigning Cy Young winner retired 18 of the next 19 batters, allowing only a single in the fourth to Rey Sanchez, who was erased on a double play. Andy Larkin (0-3) walked Manny Alexander with one out in the 10th. Alexander stole second and with two outs, Trot Nixon was intentionally walked. Brogna followed with an RBI single, Carl Everett had a run-scoring double and Lou Merloni had an RBI infield single. Royal Impoto Pichardo (5-2), a former Royal, was booed when he relieved Martinez starting the ninth. Derek Lowe allowed an RBI single to Sweeney in the 10th before getting his 30th save. Boston moved a half-game ahead of Cleveland in the AL wild-card race and stayed three games behind the Yankees in the AL East. Kansas City lost its fifth straight game. The Royals had four singles and two doubles while scoring five runs against Martinez in the improbable opening frame. The five earned runs in the first inning were more than anyone had managed against Martinez in an entire game this year. The six hits were just one short of his high in a game all season. In 22 previous starts this season Martinez had allowed only four runs in the first inning. He had not given up five runs in a first inning since June 20, 1995, when he was with Montreal and allowed five to Houston. Martinez gave up a season-high eight hits and six runs in eight innings, with six strikeouts. The six earned runs were the most he had allowed since giving up seven to Florida on July 19, 1999. His major league-leading ERA rose from 1.53 to 1.77. Down 5-0 after one, the Red Sox needed only three innings to catch up against Mac Suzuki and reliever Jerry Spradlin. Suzuki lasted three-plus innings and gave up five runs and five hits and seven walks. Four of the walks scored. Johnny Damon and Rey Sanchez singled to open the game for the Royals. Jermaine Dye and Joe Randa hit RBI singles with one out, and the crowd got into it when Mark Quinn's double made it 3-0. After Todd Dunwoody struck out, Gregg Zaun hit a two-run double to give the Royals a 5 lead. Jason Varitek walked with one out in the second and scored on Manny Alexander's double. In the third, Brian Daubach had a two-run homer and another run scored on Lou Merioni's double-play grounder. Jose Offerman had an RBI single and Carl Everett added a run-scoring groundout in the fourth. Notes: Toronto scored five runs against Martinez on June 25, but only four were earned. ... Shortstop Nomar Garciaparra was held out of Boston's lineup a second straight day with a sore left hamstring. He was available for pinch-hitting. ... Suzuki's ERA went from 3.78 to 4.00. In their last three games, the Royals have squandered leads of 5-2, 8-2 and 6-1.

But the big winner was CBS. The Associated Press An estimated 51 million viewers watched the two hour "survivor" finale in which Richard Hatch was chosen as king of the island, making it the most-watched TV program this season except for the Super Bowl, according to preliminary Nielsen ratings released by CBS. According to the figures, Wednesday night's broadcast won a huge 28.2 household rating and 44 percent share of those watching TV during that period. This compares to the 43.3 household rating and 63 share for this year's National Football League championship. Final audience numbers, to be released by Nielsen later Thursday, may change the picture slightly. In addition, some 36.7 million stayed tuned for the live reunion special after the show. "I didn't think he'd win it," said Andrew Gold, owner of Gold's Wood-Fired Grill & Cafe, where Hatch ate almost daily while he trained for the show. The victor began reaping the spoils of fame even before Wednesday. Hatch will spend next week as host of a morning talk show on a local radio station and he's featured with the final four survivors in a "Got蚊??" mustache advertisement. He has been hounded by autograph seekers and has been inundated with marriage proposals — from men and women. The final choice — between Hatch and Wiglesworth — was handed down by a jury of seven former tribates. Their vote — some complete with personal vitriol — was a squeaker: 4 to 3. "I wouldn't change anything that I did," Hatch told the jury in a final statement. Outlasting Susan Hawk, Rudy Boesch and Kelly Wiglesworth, Hatch became the sole survivor from the original 16 who marooned themselves on the remote tropical island Pulau Tiga at the series' launch in May. The 39-year-old corporate trainer took home the cash prize and a new car, confounding those certain his scheming would cost him in the end. Hatch, who stood out as the only openly gay contestant and was condemned as a snake by a fellow castaway emerged with another label: millionaire.

For decades, no American sailor in the Star class made consecutive Olympic appearances. Then Reynolds came along, and no one else has been able to get in a jib edgewise. Reynolds, one of the old men among the seagoing U.S. Olympians, will have his two-man Star on the starting line in Sydney next month. It will be his fourth straight Olympics, tying sailboarder Mike Gebhardt, who'll also be in Sydney, for the most And it's no surprise that Reynolds goes in as America's best bet for a sailing gold medal, which would be his second. appearances by a U.S. sailor. "It's still special," said the 44-year-old Reynolds, a salmaker, second-generation Star sailor and a protégé of Dennis Conner, who also grew up in San Diego before going on to America's Cup fame. "I just really enjoy sailing the Star boat," Reynolds said. Reynolds won the silver medal in his first Olympics in 1988. He and crewman Hal Haenel saw their bid for gold undone in the final race when a control line failed and their mast came tumbling down. Four years later, they won the gold medal in Barcelona, never finishing worse than third in any race and wrapping up the medal even before the final day of competition. But they finished an uncharacteristic eighth at the Atlanta "I just really enjoy sailing the Star boat." Mark Reynolds After his 1980 Olympic campaign, Reynolds needed a job so he began making saills for the Star, a sleek, 22-foot, 8-inch keelboat with a huge sail area. He continues to make saills for the Star, which are the same boats that he races. Games in 1996. "We expected to do well last time." Reynolds said. "We thought everything was pretty much on track, but it just didn't go well. So I guess that probably drives me a little harder this time to try to come back and improve on that." Haenel retired after '96, and his spot went to Swede Magnus Liljedahl, who became a U.S. citizen in 1994. Although they've been sailing together for just three years, Reynolds figures his experience will give them an edge. He knows what it takes to win a medal. "I probably won't make some of the mistakes the younger guys might make," he said. "In a way, there's not quite as much pressure on me, too. They're looking at it as their one chance to get an Olympic medal. I've gotten an Olympic medal and I'm there to do it again." "So my business is essentially sailing the Star now," he said. Although sailors face an exhausting range of variables, Liljedahl knows that hooking up with Reynolds is the closest he's going to come to a sure thing. "He was the big favorite all along and has the best reputation," Liljedahl said. "If everything goes right, and we have a little ounce of fortune on our side, I think we can win the gold medal pretty handily." Olympic officials unveil drug tests The Associated Press SYDNEY, Australia — The competition won't be only at the track, pool and playing fields during the Summer Games. A fight for Olympic credibility will be won or lost at the training sites, labs and doping control stations. The International Olympic Committee medical commission has approved a test to detect the use of the banned synthetic hormone erythropoietin, or EPO, considered the drug of choice for endurance athletes. For the first time, Olympic officials are conducting unannounced, out-of-competition tests on athletes before and during the games. And independent observers will monitor the entire testing process in Sydney to remove any suspicions of cover-ups. "I don't think we can stand up in front of the world and say, 'There will be nobody at the games in Sydney who has never used drugs,'" said Dick Pound, an IOC vice president and chairman of the new World Anti-Doping Agency. "But I think some of the people who have used them may not show up, and anyone who has done so is at a much greater risk of being detected and exposed." Even Gen. Barry McCaffrey, the White House drug policy director who has clashed with the IOC about its anti-doping efforts, believes important strides have been made. "There's a lot of room for confidence certainly," he said from Washington. "The whole mental dynamic has fundamentally changed in the last 18 months." McCaffrey will travel to Sydney to observe the testing system and meet with WADA delegates, athletes' groups and IOC president Juan Antonio Sanmaranch. "We've come a long way, but we still have a long way to go," McCaffrey said. "We've got to commit ourselves to keeping the IOC's feet to the fire. "We'd be misguided to do anything but measure this by observed results as opposed to rhetoric," he said. Critics remain unconvinced. Charles Yesalis, a Pennsylvania State University professor and author of a book on performance-enhancing drugs, has dismissed the EPO test as a public relations move. "These games are going to be as drug-laden as the rest." he said. Even if the EPO test proves effective in catching or deterring users, there still is no method for detecting two other widely abused drugs, human growth hormone (HGH) and insulin growth factor (IGF-1). Many athletes are believed to have turned to artificial hemoglobin products, which can produce some of the benefits of EPO. These include Hemopure, a drug made in South Africa that researchers say can reduce the need for blood transfusions. EPO, the drug at the heart of the Tour de France doping scandal in 1998, enhances endurance by boosting the production of oxygen-rich red blood cells. The IOC has approved a combined blood and urine test to be conducted on 300 to 700 athletes in Sydney, on top of the 2,400 standard tests expected. It's the first time blood samples will be tested in the Olympics as part of the official doping control program. While the blood test can detect EPO use dating back several weeks, the urine test only goes back three days. An athlete will be considered guilty of a doping offense only if both tests are positive. Jacques Rogge, vice chairman of the IOC medical commission, played down complaints that the system is flawed because it wouldn't catch any athlete who uses EPO more than three days before the test. "We know athletes have to take injections every three or four days," he said. "Since we are also doing out-of-competition testing, there's a good chance you can catch them." Injuries keep Akers from Olympics 1 The Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — Michelle Akers, an original member of the U.S. women's national soccer team, retired from international competition yesterday, less than a month before the start of the Olympic tournament. Akers, 34, a speedy, talented midfielder who battled injury through most of her career, said she was stepping down because of an injured shoulder and a lengthy battle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She said she still planned to play for the new WUSA franchise in Orlando, which starts play next April. "After winning the gold medal in 1996, I promised myself to never again play in the condition I was in during those Olympic games," said Akers, who played in the first U.S. women's national team match in 1985 and was the top scorer with 10 goals at the inaugural Women's World Cup in 1991. "Since then, retirement has been a big issue with me and the decision to continue on with the national team has always been a prayerful and careful one," she said. Akers, one of four players in soccer history to score 100 goals, has had more than a dozen knee operations, and struggled to return from a shoulder injury and ensuing surgery in early April. That injury forced her to miss nearly all of the Olympic preparation matches. She returned to the team in July, but re-injured her shoulder against Russia Aug. 15. "It's been a hard-fought year, and the decision to not go to Sydney was just as agonizing," she said. "But I have huge peace in knowing I fought to the very end and have nothing else to give."

The Delaware Tribe of Indians, of Bartlesville, Okla., may buy an 80-acre farm near the Lawrence airport to build a casino, hotel and convention center. The tribe began to explore construction locations after voting in Feb. 1999 to consider gaming as a means of economic development, said Gary Roulston, public relations director for the tribe. "Everything is just under study," he said. "We're not on a timetable here." Student reaction to the potential Lawrence casino was mixed. "It's too much of a temptation for college students," said Craig Gordinier, Topeka senior. "Five minutes and you're gambling." "It's too much temptation for college students. Five minutes and you're gambling." Craig Gordinier Topeka senior he has been to the boats in Kansas City and said he thought those were close enough. Rob Maddux, El Dorado graduate student, said he would go to a casino if it was built near Lawrence and thought it could enhance the area. "I don't think I'd mind that much if the tax money was going back to the community," he said. The tribe, which currently has 10,500 members, is exploring a variety of economic development projects, including gaming, Roulston said. Lawrence was chosen for legal reasons — except for bingo, gaming is illegal in Oklahoma. The tribe also has historical links to the area. The Delawares lived on a reservation in the Lawrence area from 1829 to 1867. They left their mark with towns such as Fall Leaf and Tonganoxie, both named for former chiefs. Also, after William Quantrill's raid on Lawrence, Chief White Turkey organized a party of his men that chased Quantrill off. Roulston said the Delawares would like to build a center that would be an asset to the community. "We are absolutely opposed to a casino in Douglas Country or as far as any of us are concerned, in any surrounding counties," said Boh Walters, chairman of the group. "It wouldn't be a flashy, neon, Las Vegas structure," he said. "We hope people would be proud to say the Delawares are in Kansas and Lawrence and are friends to the people. The Delaware's full intention if they set up an operation is to be good neighbors, just like their ancestors were." "A lot of the money would stay in the community." he said. The proposed complex would create more than 1,400 jobs, most of them entry level positions that could be filled by college students, Roulston said. Douglas County also would be reimbursed for any lost property tax revenue if the land became property of the tribe. They would also establish educational scholarships in Lawrence. Although the casino is still in planning stages, a group known as the Concerned Citizens for a Casino Free Greater Lawrence, formed this month. The group is currently circulating a petition to measure public opinion. The group is opposed for a variety of reasons. "It it would have a dramatic effect on our quality of life," Walters said. "And it would produce social costs that would be hidden, such as an increased crime rate and gambling addiction." The group hopes to collect more than 5,000 signatures. "We'd like to show that a resounding number of people here are opposed to a casino." Walters said. Besides collecting signatures, the group will gather information and meet with local citizens and business people. Walters said members were prepared to go to Washington, D.C. if necessary. -Edited by J.R. Mendoza Security stifles at Burge party By Leita Schultes writer@kanson.com Kansas staff writer A KU public safety officer, a posted list of rules and a metal detector greeted guests at the Phi Beta Sigma fraternity party Saturday night at the Burge Union.

Andre McCloyn-Fortune, Kansas City, Kan., senior and president of Phi Beta Sigma, said the precautions were probably a good idea, but that many people viewed the added expense as a hardship for the traditionally African-American Greek organizations that hold parties at the Kansas and Burge unions. Terrance Stigler, Waterloo, Iowa senior, waits while, JT Hytton a member of Phi Beta Sigma, scans him with a metal detecting wand. The heightened security at parties at the Burge Union is because of a shooting that occurred last year.

The final report of the survey shows that only 16.5 percent (about 95) of the 577 students surveyed could identify the student body president and 6.9 percent (about 40) could name the student body vice president. Add to that the statistic that nearly 80 percent of respondents said they paid little or no attention to Senate activity, and you have a situation of student anarchy that senators say they want to change. "I think students have a very valid point, and this is pretty concerning," said Nathan Knipp, fine arts senator. "I think the main reason why is because senators only seem to be present three weeks before election time." Knipp, a first-year senator, said that before he decided to run for election, he was indifferent toward Senate, too. "I didn't really care either," he said. "It didn't seem like they were doing much. Now I realize that they do a lot, but Student Senate has to prove to the student body that they are there to serve their needs. Students need visible proof that Student Senate is working for them in a positive way." More Information For the complete results of the survey. See www.kansan.com Laynie Richman, Dallas junior, said she didn't know who the student body president or vice president were. "I don't really have any reason to pay attention. It doesn't affect me at all." Richman said. "Other than parking, I'm pretty much satisfied. I just don't really pay attention to that stuff." Monica Rayford, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said she would care more about Senate if it addressed issues that affected her, such as tuition. "They should definitely do something to change tuition," she said. "Having to pay for every little thing is ridiculous." Jamie Goode, School of Education senator, said she thought students tended to be apathetic toward Senate because they weren't informed about what it was doing in meetings and on campus. Senate Outreach Week, which takes place this week on Wescoe Beach, should help, she said. "Part of Outreach Week is getting other students involved, so they see that we're not an elite group that they can't join." Goode said. "I think things could change. There's always going to be people who don't know who the student body president is, but things could definitely change if we focus on students, not just on meetings." Edited by John Audiolheim Departments to unify in Bailey Bv Jennifer Valadez writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Although the School of Education moved to Joseph R. Pearson Hall, its former home, Bailey Hall has not been abandoned. After Bailey receives a facelift of its own, it will primarily house humanities and social science departments funneled from Wescoe Hall beginning in December. "The provost wanted to keep a percentage of classrooms in Bailey Hall to maintain it," said Erin A. Spiridigliozzi, assistant dean of liberal arts and sciences. She also said the chairpersons from the departments of humanities had been working closely with the provost to determine which departments would benefit from the move. The space created for those making the move would unify some departments for the first time, Spiridigliozzi said. But Spiridigitozzi said there were more accommodations that had to be made in dealing with space issues for some departments that are not in Wescoe but still in need of unification. "It was difficult working through, but the positive result was that we were able to dedicate classrooms to departments for the first time," she said. "This is the upshot of having more classrooms in the building." "We have to determine what kinds of units can make use of the space available," she said. But the structural condition of some facilities in Bailey will cause a space shortage. Mark Reiske, associate director of design and construction management, said although the majority of Bailey would not be remodeled, repairs would still need to be made. "We're remodeling to satisfy codes and the occupants who are moving in," he said. Reiske said the remodeling was being done to meet fire codes and to correct past code citations. Spiridigilozzi said design and construction management would also be responsible for any painting, cleaning and recarpeting that Bailey needed before the new occupants began arriving in December. "The units moving in are feeling good; it will be the first time they will have contiguous space," she said. — Edited by Gleisson Abreu The divisions making the move are Humanities and Western Civilization, Communication Studies, African & African-American Studies, American Studies, Women's Studies, Central Eastern Asian Studies, Latin American Studies, Russian and East European Studies.

The student was walking home from work when a dark-colored pickup truck with tinted windows forced him to step toward the ditch, Det. M.T. Brown said. The truck drove past and then backed up and stopped next to the student, Brown said. The student suffered a broken thumb and injuries to his jaw which will require surgery. Brown said. Three men got out of the truck and started to follow the student, and one of the three began to hit him. The men eventually left in the truck. Brown said police had no suspects. - Lauren Brandenburg LAWRENCE Abortions unavailable as doctor faces hearing Lawrence's only abortion provider's practice is on hold while she faces state medical hearings about the use of mild sedation on patients. The Kansas Board of Healing Arts will decide today whether Kristin Neuhaus can use Ketamine along with Vallium at her clinic at 205 W. Eighth St. The board issued a hold on her practice after she asked for permission to use the sedation. Ketamine and Vallium ease pain, but they are different than general anesthetics because they don't interfere with a patient's res piration. The board issued the hold because it was concerned that Neuhaus would not be well-prepared if an emergency happened because she practices in an office setting. Donald Strole, her attorney, doesn't think the board can establish a permanent hold on her practice. "I don't think the board can establish that she can't use mild sedation in an office setting because several different doctors use it in office settings, like oral surgeons," he said. "Frankly, we are perplexed why this is going on," he said. Neuhua has not performed an abortion since Aug. 12. She has been consulting with patients and was not available for comment. — Melissa Davis WORLD Clinton visits Nigeria speaks about AIDS ABUJA, Nigeria — Africans must "break the silence" about AIDS or risk losing hard-fought democratic and economic gains, President Clinton said yesterday as the White House highlighted more than $20 million in U.S. aid to fight AIDS, malaria and other diseases PETER HUGHES Clinton: Africans must work to solve AIDS problem. devastating Africa. "In every country, in any culture, it is difficult, painful, at the very least embarrassing, to talk about the issues involved with AIDS." Clinton said after touring a health center in the Nigerian capital and hearing the stories of sev eral people living with the disease. Clinton's two-day stay in Nigeria was intended to underscore U.S. approval of the 15-month-old democratic government in Africa's most populous nation, with 123 million people. Along with dealing with the heavy themes of AIDS and debt relief, Clinton used the trip to get to know a country he deliberately bypassed on his last trip to Africa in 1998, when it was under a military dictatorship. AIDS killed 2.8 million people worldwide last year and is now the leading cause of death in Africa. The Clinton administration will spend $9.4 million this year for AIDS and HIV infection prevention and care in Nigeria, $8.7 "We want to help you build your economy, educate your children and build a better life," he told villagers as he wore a cream-colored royal African robe given to him by the village chief. million more for polio eradication and $2 million toward prevention of malaria. In sub-Saharan Africa, 1.3 million children have lost a parent to AIDS, and the disease is reducing life expectancies and dimming development hopes across the continent. Muslim rebel demands millions for hostages JOLO, Philippines — His AK-47 rifle swings awkwardly against his diminutive body as he walks, and Philippine government officials once poked fun at his limited education and country ways. So far, his Abu Sayyaf rebels have received an estimated $11 million for the kidnapping of 21 people on April 23 from a Malaysian diving resort — with several hostages still unreleased. But for now, at least, Muslim rebel commander Galib "Robot" Andang appears to have out-bargained the government by winning $1 million for each of five foreign hostages released yesterday. Although not a senior Abu Sayaf commander, Andang has managed to retain control of the captives since their abduction, earning the ire of four other rebel commanders on Jolo who feel they've been cut out of most of the ransom. The other Abu Sayyaf leaders made lofty political demands, such as formation of an independent Islamic state, early in the hostage negotiations. But Andang soon controlled the talks with a single-minded pursuit of cash, negotiators say. Soldiers die in raid; peace eludes countries ASSIRA ASHMA利亚, West Bank — A botched raid on an Islamic militant hide-out in this West Bank village ended yesterday with three Israeli soldiers dead — all possibly by friendly fire — and Palestinian officials angry at how Israel handles threats to peace between the two peoples. The raid comes a month after Israel and Palestinian negotiators broke new ground at the Camp David summit. The sides still hope to agree on a permanent peace soon, a prospect that has spurred Hamas — implacably opposed to any deal with the Jewish state — to increase its efforts to scuttle the peace. The target of the nighttime raid was Mahmoud Abu Hanoud, a fugitive at the top of Israel's most-wanted list who is blamed for two 1997 bombings that killed at least 21 ISilis. Despite their own failure to capture Abu Hanoud, for whom they'd been searching for years, Israeli officials praised Palestinian security forces and said his detention proved the effectiveness of Palestinian-Israeli security cooperation.

Photos by Nick Krug / KANSAN Pawzfest draws pet, band supporters By Meghan Bainum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Some 200 Lawrence residents and KU students trekked to the Granada Saturday to listen to local bands — and learn about the Lawrence Humane Society. They made the trip to Pawzfest, a benefit for humane society. Though hampered by hot temperatures, the event managed to raise $1,000 for the humane society's new addition, which will help with the overcrowding problem at its animal shelter. Midge Grinstead, executive director of the humane society, said she was excited about the response, especially since this was the first year for Pawzfest. She said one of the main reasons for the event was to attract younger people and students to the humane society, either as volunteers or possible pet owners. Kyle Fisher, Lawrence junior, said that while he didn't know much about Pawzfest, he came to see Shaking Tree, one of his favorite bands. "They are a great band, and I always go see them play." he said Plans already are underway for Pawzfest II. A Kristina Stegman, volunteer coordinator for the humane society, was happy with the first fest, but she said that things would be even better the second time. "I've learned a lot this year, so we can focus on different things for next year." Stegman said. Grinstead said some of the ideas for the next Pawzfest included a later start time, less bands and stand-up comedy between musical sets. Annie shakes off after taking a bath at Pawfest, a benefit for the Lavender Humane Society at the Granada. Along with the dog wash, owners and pets were entertained with music and dog treats. She said she hoped Pawzfest would become an annual event. Erin Paden, Lawrence senior and humane society volunteer, said she was excited about the prospect of Pawzfest happening every year. "I think it's a really good idea, and it's something that needs to be continued," she said. "It's good for the humane society, and it's fun." — Edited by Clay McCuskin New candidates want evolution taught writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Bv Jason Krall Last year, the Kansas State Board of Education fueled a national debate on science education by approving standards that de-emphasized evolution. This year, Kansas' Republican voters have responded by voting for candidates who want to change the standards back. Three of the four candidates who advocated changing the standards to again include evolutionary theory defeated The evolution debate their opponents earlier this month in the state's Republican primary. And because the four candidates all will face Democratic opponents in November who also favor the change, the new board members are likely to reverse last year's controversial decision shortly after they take office. Bruce Wyatt, a Salina Republican candidate, said that, if elected, he planned to move that the board adopt the original recommendations at the same meeting at which he is sworn in. "Our science standards should reflect the consensus of the scientific ic community worldwide, he said, "and that consensus is that evolution is part of science." The primaries were the first chance voters had to show their views on last summer's decision, and they indicated mixed feelings on the issue around the state. While Vice-Cairwoman Linda Holloway was defeated decisively by challenger Susan Gamble, who took 60 percent of the vote, evolution supporter Carol Rupe ousted incumbent Mary Douglass Brown with just 52 percent. Wyatt topped conservative Brad Angell 58 to 42. Yet, the candidate who won by the Voters in Kansas' recent Republican primary voted for three out of four candidates who want to re-emphasize evolution in state testing standards.

Steve Abrams took 68 percent of the vote in District 10, which covers south-central Kansas, including Sumner and Cowley counties.

The board, in a 6-4 vote last August, took macroevolution out of the state's science standards and statewide assessment tests, leaving the decision on whether to teach it with local school districts. The state board endured a backlash from Kansas parents and from science educators nationwide who claim the standards were approved for political reasons and because of religious beliefs. Edited by John Audlehelm Smoking in halls concerns officials By L. Candy Ruff Special to the Kansan Smoking should be banned in all residence halls at the University of Kansas, state and local fire officials say. one fire hazard is always there," said Gale Haag, Kansas State fire marshal. "It is unrealistic to allow students to smoke in their residence hall rooms. That needs to stop." Among KU's seven residence halls, only Lewis, Templin and Ellsworth halls are smoke-free. At Hashinger, Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin, McCollum and Oliver halls, smoking is allowed in students' rooms on certain floors, with roommate permission. Of the smoke-free halls, two have been newly renovated and include sprinkler systems. Only smoke detectors are required in the halls where smoking is permitted. Rich Barr, fire marshal for Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical department, said he was concerned about smoking in residence halls. "The residential halls are the largest concentration of students on campus," he said. "If we had a major fire, there could be a large loss of life." Nearly 2,700 students live in halls that allow smoking. The Kansas Legislature passed a law in 1995 that forbids smoking in any state-owned facility. However, an exception to the law allows Regents universities to set their own smoking policies. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said the decision to allow smoking in residence hall rooms was made to accommodate on-campus students who smoke. The University thought those students might otherwise choose to live off campus, leaving residence hall rooms — a loss of revenue for the school. Of the state's five Regents universities, only Pittsburg State prohibits smoking entirely. Only seven percent of students applying for housing last year identified themselves as smokers. Seventy-two percent said they wanted a smoke-free environment, citing secondhand smoke and safety as reasons. Smoking is the housing department's biggest headache. Stoner said. "Of the complaints we receive, we hear about smoking more than anything else," he said. "Students don't like secondhand smoke, and they complain about roommates who smoke." A complete ban on smoking would end the complaints. It might also have prevented a fire that blazed Jan. 18 in McColum Hall. Barr said that when firefighters arrived, they found that students disposed of their smoking material in stairwell trash chute. Within 24 hours of the fire, a fatal residence hall fire at Seton Hall University in New Jersey took the lives of three students and injured 62. Because a sprinkler system would have prevented such a disaster, New Jersey lawmakers passed legislation in July mandating sprinkler systems in all residential housing at state and private universities. The lack of sprinkler systems in the residence halls at KU where smoking is permitted concerns fire officials. Depending on smoke detectors is not enough, Barr said, because sprinkler systems put out fires at their source, which prevents fires from spreading. Renovations are planned for the five residential halls without sprinkler systems, said KU architect Fire safety article promotes legislation "Burning Issues," a publication of the National Fire Safety Association, reported that nationwide, from 1990 to 1994, there was a yearly average of 1,437 residence hall fires at universities and colleges. On average, one person died and 54 sustained injuries each year. These fires did an average of $5 million in property damage each year. The installation of automatic fire sprinklers in residence halls would greatly reduce the amount of property damage, injuries and deaths, according to the publication. Sprinkler systems were present in only 28 percent of the residence halls where fires occurred. A fatal fire Jan. 19 at Seton Hall University in South Orange, N.J., prompted the state's lawmakers to respond. In the next four years, each college, university, and boarding school will be equipped with sprinkler systems. Gov. Christie Todd Whitman signed the legislation in July that established a $50 million fund for low interest loans. The Pennsylvania legislature held hearings July 21 on a bill that would require all existing college and university residence halls as well as all newly constructed buildings to have fire sprinkler systems within five years. The bill set up a loan fund of $100 million. Illinois lawmakers also responded with similar legislation. A fatal fraternity house fire in June at Millinik University in Decatur, Ill., killed one student. The building did not have a sprinkler system. The Illinois Legislature planned to have hearings in early 2001. In April, federal legislation appropriated $100 million from 2001 to 2005 to install sprinkler systems in the nation's colleges and universities. Grant awards come only with matching funds from each institution. Edited by Gleisson Abreu Warren Corman, and sprinklers will be added. "We can put the sprinkler system right into the new construction at a cheaper cost," he said. "It all comes down to the money." Haag said. "Because there is a lot of money involved, they will wait to do it. But you will see the bodies of dead students stacked up in front of a burning building before anyone is willing to make a move." Rep. Henry Helgerson, D-Wichita, said he would sponsor legislation that bans smoking in all the buildings at the Regents universities when the State Legislature convenes in January. "No smoking in state buildings means all state buildings," he said. L. Candy Ruff was a Reporting II student this summer. She is also a democratic Kansas state representative from the 40th district. Ruff may support legislation to ban smoking in residence halls.

Rather than dwell on the prosperity of the past eight years, they would prefer to pontificate on the particular deficiencies of the Clinton era, namely things such as honor, purpose and values. George W. Bush's speech accepting the Republican nomination laid out his vision to renew America's purpose, warning that the current good times could act like "a drug in our system — dulling our sense of urgency, of empathy, of duty." Al Gore promised many times to fight against powerful forces and interests and for "families who are struggling with things that money can't measure" in a "culture with too much meanness and not enough meaning." As a nation born of a political philosophy whose tenets are captured as self-evident truths in the document declaring independence, the last thing America should endure is a sense of purposelessness. Sadly, it does. Abraham Lincoln, our greatest president, was so precise because he understood in thought and demonstrated in deed that this was a nation dedicated to "the father of all moral principle" — that "all men are created equal." PETER PARKS Northern victory in the Civil War and subsequent adoption of the 14th Amendment formally incorporated the principle of equality in the operation of government. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 which completed Andrew Marino columnist opinenko.kansan.com 1854, when the victory of Lincoln's thought, sought to regulate the private behavior of individuals — to inculcate a moral sentiment — and is, perhaps, the most successful attempt to legislate morality ever undertaken in America. The present conduct and oratory of the two major parties and their candidates calls into question whether they continue to be dedicated to the equality of man. Gore's Democratic Party explicitly endorses affirmative action that manifests itself in practice as nothing more than preferential treatment—and therefore discrimination—on the basis of race. One will search in vain for a reasoned, principled defense of it anywhere in Gore's rhetoric or the party platform. Preferential treatment is instead sold to the public as an innocent expansion of opportunity to historically disadvantaged minorities. The other party, Bush's, sells out the sound principles consistent with the Declaration's view of equality on the advice, given by consultants and its left wing, that minority groups will not vote for its candidates unless they cease their opposition to preferential treatment. The most egregious example of this whipped-dog approach to electoral politics occurred during Gen. Colin Powell's lecture to the Republican convention. The good general chastised his fellow Republicans for not carrying the mantle of Lincoln while proceeding to demonstrate his ignorance of the man's thought. Republicans created cynicism, he said, because some "miss no opportunity to roundly and loudly condemn affirmative action, but you hardly hear a whimper when its affirmative action for lobbyists." The argument makes no sense because A has nothing to do with B and because, in the context of the speech, one has no business evoking Lincoln to promote a program of racial discrimination. What's missing from the case for affirmative action is an explanation of how one can extend preferential treatment on the basis of race to one human without discriminating against another human. Such a practice conflicts inherently and directly with the moral lesson our civil-rights laws attempt to teach. In May 1854, Sen. Stephen Douglas of Illinois, Lincoln's opponent in a series of famous debates during the 1858 U.S. Senate campaign, helped pass a law that taught citizens that slavery was so morally inconsequential, the settlers of Kansas and Nebraska should decide the fate of slavery in their midst The law sparked a mini-civil war in Kansas between pro-slavery and free-state settlers, including the sacking of free-soll Lawrence. So why should we, who sleep, shop and sometimes even study as equal citizens of that town, in that state, in that nation — all dedicated to that proposition tolerate politicians who are not?

Perspective University experience is more than classes Someone recently said to me, "So you can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Aren't you happy to be graduating?" Although I will be very happy to graduate next spring, barring a disaster during my final two semesters, I honestly don't think I would have been able to get this far without becoming immersed in the campus and the community. Initially, it is important to recognize that the modern university setting offers students many electronic academic opportunities and activities. Take advantage of this. Of course, we all try to have a master plan as to why we are at the University. Graduation is generally the ultimate goal, but who says we can't make a few spontaneous choices to explore things that we are interested in as students? The experiences we gain inside and outside of the classroom are essential to success in a career and in If your goal is to graduate in four years with a bachelor's degree in business administration, why not diversify your academic experience by taking an obscure film course or a social welfare class? It may not be the reason you get hired to an upper-level management position, as your degree will speak life. Too many students today do not stray from the paths set forth for them by course requirements and peer interests. It is far too easy as students to be so intensely focused that we don't expand our horizons. Corey Snyder columnist opinion@kansan.com Similarly, the activities we engage in outside of the classroom have a large effect on what we will do in life and even reflect on our personalities. Volunteering in the community is a unique way for students to delve into new situations, which can lead to possible career choices or interests. Volunteering also increases social consciousness, whether it be from working for a recycling drive or with the homeless. With the University's large student population, participating in a club or student group is not difficult, as there is something for nearly everyone. Even if the club is purely for recreation, the connections you will make are a good way to network. for itself, but those classroom experiences could be helpful in a crucial conversation during an interview. The first few weeks of the fall semester are great because campus organizations hold meetings and set up information tables. Take a few extra minutes on your way to class to stop by a table and find out what a group is all about or how you can get involved. It won't hurt your college experience. In fact, it's more likely to enhance it. Regardless of the choices you make during your time at the University of Kansas, realize that the opportunities at the end of the tunnel are always a little brighter if you get involved. Perhaps if you are especially daring, you'll just say "the heck with school" and take the often-shunned semester off. Frankly, there is nothing wrong with missing four months of college to travel, work or explore who you are. This time away from school can help you recognize what you need to do to prepare yourself for the future. Synder is a Topeka junior in pre-physical therapy. Editorial Rush week time slot must move Sorority recruitment prevents women from concentrating on class. Although sorority recruitment can be a positive experience for college women, the week when they are recruited into sororities should not overlap with the first week of classes at the University of Kansas. For all the women who participate in Fall Formal Recruitment, the recruitment distracts from the purpose of attending a university the first week. Fall Formal Recruitment, which overlaps with the first two days of classes, requires women to wait two days to find out which chapter they will be a member of and distracts them from focusing on academics. Although the actual recruitment process is complete Wednesday evening for prospective members, the rigorous schedule leading to Friday keeps women from having time to find and prepare for their classes and purchase books ahead of time. Though already adjusted to college life, returning members have an equally demanding schedule. Most chapters require their members to attend workshops and meetings from early morning to late at night the week before recruitment. All-chapter sessions sometimes last for hours after the last party during recruitment week. Recruitment should not force members to divide their time between preparing for classes and selecting the organization that will be part of their lives for years. Though the National Panhellenic Association reduced the length of recruitment from five days to four this fall—a change for the better—it should now consider moving recruitment to a different time in the school year. Other schools hold recruitment later in the fall, when women's schedules, goals and priorities are more established. Other universities begin and end the recruitment process a week before classes even start. The University should examine the possibilities of repositioning recruitment so both active and prospective members can focus on the academics that bring them here.

Republican vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney said yesterday. He admitted, however, that major cutbacks in the military began on his watch as the first post-Cold War defense secretary. And, in response to an irate letter from a Democratic senator, Cheney refused to back down from a campaign statement depicting Gore as being "AWOL" on veterans' issues. Cheney said he had not seen the statement and until he does, cannot say whether it was appropriate to use the acronym that means "absent without leave" to describe Gore. But, he said to Meet the Press host Tim Russert, "I have not used that word. I don't think it's appropriate of you to attribute it to me." Cheney discussed military readiness on three Sunday talk shows. Cheney said on NBC that the military had trouble with morale, recruiting and retention. On ABC's This Week, Cheny said that while the United States had a great military, it was headed in the wrong direction. Gore campaign representative Douglas Hattaway said the Republicans had lost all credibility on defense. "Cheney already admitted that military downsizing began under the Bush-Quayle-Cheney administration," Hattaway said. "So either Cheney doesn't know what he's talking about, or they can't get their story together on the military. I think it all shows that Bush is not ready to be commander in chief." George W. Bush raised the issue of military preparedness last week in a speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in Milwaukee. "I think if you match our forces today up against any others around the world, we've got the best force," Cheney said on NBC. "The problem is it's in decline, and this administration has done very little to reverse that decline." Cheney said that as defense secretary in '89, he was faced with the Cold War. But now, he said, the cuts had gone too far. Jewish groups demand restitution WASHINGTON — The international reckoning over the evils of the Holocaust is about to come home to America. The Associated Press "There are things that have to be faced up to," said Elan Steinberg, World Jewish Congress, executive director. The country that would prefer to be known more for its World War II heroism will take its turn in examining how some in corporate America and official Washington also failed Hitler's victims. In four years of lawsuits, soulsearching, revelations and armwisting, the United States has led in promoting Holocaust truth-telling. And it has helped Jewish groups wrest billions of dollars from European governments, companies and institutions that profited from Nazi Germany. In the coming weeks, Jewish "There are things that have to be faced up to." World Jewish Congress executive director organizations plan to push for payments from dozens of American corporations that they accuse of using forced labor. “It's their turn,” said Steinberg. “American companies were collaborating with Nazi Germany at a time when we were at war because there was an ethos that demanded huge profits at the expense of everything else.” At the same time, a presidential panel will report on what the government did with valuables that were stolen from Holocaust victims and came under U.S. control before, during or after the war. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce announced May 1 that it would organize a Holocaust fund. But it hasn't received a single pledge, and officials said the effort was stalled on individual companies' legal and public image concerns. "We're trying to do the right thing," said the chamber's Stephen Jordan. With 1,000 aging survivors dying each month, Jewish organizations said they would appeal directly to corporations. "We are looking at this as an issue to bring up with these companies in September, and we intend to bring it up very firmly and very decisively," said Gideon Taylor of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. "The issue is really whether America companies will face up to their historical responsibility in a way that is moral and proper." Taylor said. GET INVOLVED!

Experts describe the discovery as possibly opening a new door into the role of pheromones in human development. In animals, researchers have documented how pheromones trace complex neurological paths to stimulate parts of the brain that are deeply rooted in instinct. Researchers have long believed that humans also communicate through pheromones, but until now they had been unable to find any of the equipment needed to detect these potent molecules. Now, in experiments at Rockefeller University and Vale, neurogeneticists have isolated a human gene, labeled V1RL1, that they believe encodes for a pheromone receptor in the mucous lining of the nose. A receptor is a patch on the surface of a cell that binds with specific molecules, like a lock that accepts only a specific key. "This is the first convincing identification of a human pheromone receptor," said University of Colorado biochemist Joseph Falke. Humans share the V1RL1 gene with rodents and other mammals that rely heavily on pheromone cues to survive. However, it has not been determined whether the gene is active in humans or which behavior the gene might induce. "The ultimate test will be Nature Genetics: http://www.nature.com /ng ON THE NET to find a pheromone that binds to the receptor and triggers a measurable physiological response," Falke said. The research was published in the September issue of the journal Nature Genetics. Researchers took samples from a gene bank and scanned them for matches to the rodent genes from the Vir family. They found eight matches in human genetic material. Further testing showed that seven of the eight human Vir genes are inoperative. The potentially functional gene subsequently was found in 11 out of 11 randomly chosen people from varying ethnic backgrounds, researchers said. While rodents and other creatures essentially are reactive animals that depend heavily on pheromones for behavioral cues, humans use their larger brains to rely more on judgment and complex sensory cues, such as vision. "In mice, we think there are more than 100 functioning genes in the V1r family," said Ivan Rodriguez of Rockefeller University, lead author of the study. "But in humans, V1RL1 may very well be the sole functioning gene in the family." "Why has it hung around all this time?" said Charles Wysocki of the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia. "It must be very important if it has outlived all of its predecessors." New rules exclude non-KU students, partygoers claim Continued from page 1A for each of approximately 300 guests made the party the fraternity's chief annual fund-raiser. McCloyn-Fortune said the cost to rent the union also increased this year, from $60 to $65. A new requirement — hiring someone to be "on call" during the event — was another $65. Besides the expense, McCloyn-Fortune said new check-in rules changed the party's dynamics. Students had to present KU or other college IDs before being admitted. Non-college guests had to have their IDs photocopied and be accompanied by a college student. "It's really slowing everything down, and it's really taking away from our friends," McCloy-Fortune said of the party's registration requirements. But some who attended the party were able to overlook the inconvenience. LATE-NIGHT EVENT RULES Accompanying guest of one-of the above must register at a check-in table where photo ID will be copied Admission requirements KU or other college photo ID, KU Alumni or sponsoring organization membership ID and photo ID Jacqueline Martir.

"They're glad safety precautions are here," she said. "It just makes everyone more comfortable." Enjoli Dixon, Jefferson City, Mo., junior, agreed. People were upset about the new rules, she said, but they appreciated the added safety precautions. "It itd not make me nervous to come back because I knew it wasn't a KU student," she said of January's shooting. "It was an outsider who didn't go to college." Dixon said most schools made a habit of checking IDs at parties to discourage the attendance of troublemakers. "I think right now it's probably the best policy," she said.

The virus is usually spread by Viral meningitis, a complication of common viral infections, isn't highly contagious through normal contact and is usually transferred though respiratory secretions. Most people who become infected with the viruses that cause viral meningitis don't become sick. shaking hands with an infected person or touching something an infected person has handled, then touching the nose, mouth or eyes. Common symptoms include fever, severe headache, stiff neck, drowsiness or confusion, nausea, vomiting or sensitivity to bright lights. Lannie Zweimiller, director of the Lafene Health Center at Kansas State, said viral meningitis should not be confused with bacterial meningitis, which is highly contagious. Rare rhino born at Kansas City Zoo The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — She came into the world at 65 pounds. Her significance in the animal world is even bigger. one is 65 pounds of eastern black rhinoceros and is part of an international effort to preserve a critically endangered species. Born at 4:40 a.m. Saturday at the Kansas City Zoo, the as-yet unnamed rhino is believed to be just the 661st eastern black rhinoceros in the world, according to the International Rhino Foundation. "She follows mom around, and妈调 adjusts her height to allow the baby to nurse," said Conrad Schmitt, zoor curator. The main threats to the species are poaching and loss of habitat. Conservation officials are especially pleased that this baby is female. In recent years, births among captive eastern black rhinos have been disproportionately male. The rhinho mother, named Luyisa, was brought here from Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa in 1997. Zoo keepers had ON THE NET Kansas City Zoo: http://www.kansascityzoo.org/ ■ International Rhino Foundation: http://www.rhinos-irf.org/ http://www.rhinos-irf.org/ developed a trusting relationship with Luyisa, who allowed veterinarian Kirk Suedmeyer to take regular ultrasound readings of the fetus. Kansas City's baby is scheduled eventually to be transferred to the Cincinnati Zoo, which is developing a rhino program. Penguin Short on Cash?

At the annual Get Ready Rally to celebrate the beginning of the Jayhawks' season, there were games that tested athletic skills. The bungee-cord pull tested agility, "Dart Man" and the dunking booth tested accuracy. The golfing range, to estimate how far one could hit a golf ball, tested strength. Cheerleaders helped children dress up in shoulder pads and helmets for pictures. A small, Jayhawk decal on the cheek was as close as kids got to having a tattoo like some of the players. But if fans wanted to see what it felt like to be in the Big 12 Conference, they headed toward the closed end of the horseshoe Memorial Stadium. That's where kids played "king of the mountain" on a gray tower shaped like the Pentagon building in Washington, D.C. And king of the mountain is exactly what Kansas wants to be this year. "it's cool to have a lot of fans out here,' senior wide receiver Termaine Fulton said. "We definitely appreciate the support." Fulton, from Topeka, was one of the more popular Jayhawks. But fans attended the rally for plenty of other reasons. Students also could pick up their football and men's basketball tickets. The football field was swarmed by freshmen, who found the rally a good place to meet new people. Kansas officials estimated the rally to be bigger than last year's crowd of 6,000. "What a great night, what a great turnout," Bob Frederick, athletics director, said to begin the pep rally that occurred halfway through the evening. Freshman Melissa Lindsley went to the rally with some friends from Ewellsworth More information Additional photos from the Get Ready Rally. See page 3A Hall. Although a jayhawk fan before she enrolled at Kansas, Lindsay was caught off- guard by one new renovation to the stadium; the new field. "I went to a few games here last year," she said. "But I didn't even know about this." The new AstroPlay field, which bears more resemblance to grass than the typical artificial carpet, had little kids catching passes and diving on the field to test it out. New college students stood in a long line to retrieve their football and basketball tickets. This year, students who forgot to purchase them could stand in another line to do that. Last year, students had to wait until the Monday after the rally to buy the sports package, but Rick Mullen, director of promotions, figured more students could be attracted to the rally if they were able to buy them then. See STUDENTS on page 3B Alumnae get swept but enjoy reunion By Sarah Warren By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com Kansas Sportswriter Freshman Sarah Rome had her first taste of collegiate volleyball action Saturday night with some people who know how the game is played. Rome, an outside hitter, manned the left side in the first two matches for the Jayhawks as they took on former team members in the annual Alumnae vs. Varsity match. After a close first game, the 'Hawks dominated, sweeping all four games, 17-15, 15-6, 15-6 and 15-5 against the alumnae team, which included May 2000 graduates Mary Beth Albrecht and Anne Kreimer. "It was good to get into the gym and play against somebody besides ourselves," Rome said. For the Jayhawks, senior outside hitters Nancy Bell and Amy Myatt led the team with 12 and 11 kills respectively, while Rome added nine. Junior setter Molly LaMere also contributed offensively with 37 assists. "We're playing against a team that is a bit unorthodox because they haven't played in a while, and so you see things you don't normally see," Bechard said. "It gives us a chance to tune up for Friday's matches and see what things we still need to improve on." Coach Ray Bechard agreed, saying that the alumnae team provided a nice practice match to keep his players on their toes for their first season match this weekend at the Purdue Mortar Board Classic in West Lafayette, Ind. One of the needed improvements that Bechard cited was the total number of digs recorded by his team. "I don't think that 46 digs is enough for a four-game match," Bechard said. This season he wants his team to average more digs and become more defensive. "We're playing against a team that is a bit unorthodox because they haven't played in a while, and so you see things you don't normally see." KU Volleyball Coach However, the technical side of the alumnae match was a side note for Bechard. "tonight was a great way to honor some of our former players and coaches," he said. "It was very enjoyable for our kids to play against such quality people." Enjoyable was also the key word for the alumnae, many of whom hadn't set a competitive foot on the court for some time. same time. "You have a lot of fun," said Leslie Berens, a 1999 graduate and former outside hitter. "But it's serious because you haven't been competitive for a while." berens, now a volleyball coach at Blue Valley Northwest High School, said the annual alumnae match was a wonderful way to get the current 'Hawks ready for the season as well as a platform for a team reunion. "It's a good scrimmage forum," she said. "It is good for them to see another team before the season starts. And seeing all the old players is cool too. I mean, I saw girls tonight that I haven't seen in four or five years." In that spirit, the alumnae grinned their way through the four tests, laughing off mistakes as well as pain from lack of knee pads. "Yeah, I need about 20 ice packs right now." Berens said. "I'm definitely going to be sore tomorrow." —Edited by Erin McDaniel KANSAS JAYHAWKS Sara Rome, freshman outside hitter, blasts a shot over the net in an exhibition match between the Jayhawks and Kansas volleyball alumnae.

The Jayhawks kicked off the 2000 season strongly last Friday, beating Northwestern 3-0 in Evanston, Ill., but suffered a 4-0 loss to Illinois Sunday in Champaign, Ill. "We played very well in the first half and created a lot of chances," coach Mark Francis said after Friday's game against Northwestern. "Our finishing was good compared to the number of shots we took, and the chances we didn't put away didn't" F. B.

Northwestern came out the second half Haogveld: scored the first goal of the season Friday. with increased intensity, but Haven's second goal of the game in the 77th minute gave the Wildcats a finishing blow. "We came out a little lax in the second half." Francis said. "We picked it up in the last 25 minutes and dominated the game again as we did in the first half. We gave up only one clear scoring chance and did very well defensively." Sophomore goalkeeper Layla Young, the current backup goalie for the full English national team, made her first collegiate shutout. But yesterday's game against Illinois was a whole different story for the Jayhawks. "We did not play very well at all today," Francis said. "They are a pretty good team, but we made them look a lot better than they are today." Illinois took 22 shots throughout the game and scored two goals in each half, while Kansas made only nine goal attempts. Hoogveld led the 'Hawks with three shots. "We never could get anything going today," Francis said.

Mendoza Seth Jones sports@kansan.com Freshmen: live college to the fullest Are you serious? Monday classes? Already? Can someone tell me what happened to the summer? So freshmen, now that I've confessed that you're all little 18-year-old heroes to me, I want to pass along some wisdom. Humor me, I just complimented you. Here we go again. Freshmen scurry to classes, searching for unfamiliar buildings. They're such an inspiration to me. They aren't burnt out; they're excited. I need to be more like them. The University of Kansas will be whatever you make of it. If your only desire is to play computer games, KU will become a thousand dollar experience of you sitting in your cramped room, setting new records for yourself on Madden 2000. "Hey, I rushed for 352 yards yesterday! Wonder how I can do tonight ..." But I don't think you want to be the leading rusher of your bedroom football league. And flag football season is right around the corner. As far as sports go, the potential to be crazy here knows no bounds. Come March Madness, why not throw a blanket, a big bag of Cool Ranch Doritos and all your Pearl Jam Dins in your car, find a buddy, and drive wherever the Jayhawks are playing their first and second round games? I decided as a freshman in college that every semester here I would try a new adventure, something I'd never done before. Nothing harmful, mind you. But the time I went to Mexico City to watch 14 soccer games in ten days I did think that I was going to die from Montezuma's Revenge. Why not try a sport you've never played before? Fencing comes to mind. I've always wanted to try it, but I've never done it. But if I wanted to, I could get one of those masks and go down to Robinson and become a fencer, or whatever it is they call people who fence. This brings up my water polo story. Forgive me if you've heard it before. My first new adventure as a freshman here at KU was a two-week tour of the KU water polo club team. Back at my high school, all they offered for sports were the basics. No tennis or soccer teams were available at Mulvane High. So I came to KU and thought that maybe water polo was a sport I could excel at. It was the hardest sport I'd ever played. It was such a hard work out that one night, while sleeping in my bunk bed at Oliver Hall, a body cramp hit me. They're more common now that athletes are using Creatine. Your body is so dehydrated and your muscles are so strained that your body just suddenly curls up like a ball and all you can do is shout expletives. At least, that's what happened to me. They hurt and are rather embarrassing if they strike when you're in a public place. After the body cramp, and after we started scrimmaging in practice, I decided it was time to quit. Sadly, I never got to scrimmage. When that time came up, I left for the shallow side of the pool and worked with my own coach. He worked with me, trying to teach me the proper way to swim. If I would have wanted to stay with it, the guys would have been more that happy to help me. But I was out of my league. Still, at least I tried it. G crazy while you're here. Get your degree. But get the experience of college as well. Jona is a Mulvane senior in journalism 1 2B Quick Looks Monday August 28, 2000 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (Aug. 28). You have superhuman powers this year.

C WOLF COLLEGE BASKETBALL Guard Miles to choose Kansas or Arizona soon Palm trees or wheat? Lake Meade or Clinton Lake? Roy Williams or Lute Olson? These are the questions facing highly-touched guard Aaron Miles from Portland, Ore., who will choose between Kansas and Arizona, according to HighMajorHoops.com. Unnamed sources on the Web site said that the Jayhawks and Wildcats are in a dead heat for Miles' services, with UCLA running a distant third. Miles has said that he would like to choose his school during the early signing period in November. Last season, Miles averaged 15 points per game for Jefferson High School. The Jayhawks have five scholarships available for the 2001 school year, but one is already tabbed for Leavenworth forward Wayne Simien. Simien gave Kansas an oral commitment at the beginning of the summer.

While there were against New Mexico Saturday night. In their first game under Leach, sophomore Kliff Kingsbury completed 21-of-47 passes — bettering last year's single-game highs of 15 completions and 32 attempts — for 186 yards and two touchdowns. The Red Raiders were only credited with 24 rushing attempts, and four of those were when Kingsbury was sacked. This was only game one in a vastly different Tech offensive system. The Red Raiders ran two-thirds of the time under former coach Spike Dykes. DENTON, Texas — Junior Richard Bridges has maintained his role as the starting quarterback for North Texas. Texas Tech's remaining three-game non-conference schedule will be played at home before their Big 12 Conference opener Sept. 30 at Texas A&M. Coach Darrell Dickey said Bridges, who started the final six games last season, will start Thursday night's season opener at home against Baylor. Sophomore Spencer Stack or freshman Scott Hall will be the No. 2 quarterback. i anticipate that we might play more than one quarterback against Baylor and that all three will get a chance to play early this season," Dickey said. In his first start last season, Bridges led the Mean Green to a 17-10 victory against Boise State, the Big West Conference champ that didn't lose another game in the Big West. Then came five straight North Texas losses.

Wearing denim shorts and his Kansas football jersey, he flashed his smile to fans who wished him a better season. As Gasaway signed autographs, he was happy just to talk at all. Last year's season was shattered when Gasaway broke his jaw in three places in a preseason weightlifting accident. His jaw was wired shut for last year's rally, leaving Gasaway sounding like a novice ventriloquist. "It's nice when people come up to me "It don't have to mumble," he said. Although Gasaway still lifts weights with the same ferocity, he said he appreciated football more and some foods less. He lost 25 pounds as his jaw healed and he could only consume liquids. "I can't eat that stuff anymore," he said. "Had too much of it." Gasaway said he does not take anything — even Kansas' two-a-day practices in sweltering heat — for granted. Gasaway now avoids sports drinks and Campbell's soup. "I enjoy the game a lot more because I had to stay away from it for so long," he said. But injuries continue to plague the wide-receiving squad. Gasaway has had a sore ankle; Termaine Fulton a heat-related illness; Barry Goodrich a pulled hamstring; and Harrison Hill dehydration. Yet as the Jayhawks prepare for Saturday's opener at Southern Methodist, it looks as though all receivers but Hill are a go. "It's definitely been frustrating for everybody." Fulton said. "We all want to be out there and make an impact and help this team out. But these things happen." Gasaway retained his sophomore year of eligibility because of the injury. He showed promise in 1998 when, as a freshman, he played in all 11 games, started one, and caught 11 passes. A toddler approached Gasaway on Saturday at the rally, held out his pen and shyly asked Gasaway for an autograph. Gasaway obliged, and the child's father asked Gasaway how his health was. The ankle is healthy. He can walk the walk. "I'm ready to go," Gasaway said, looking up and smiling again after finishing the signature. The jaw is healed. Gasaway will talk the talk - Edited by John Audlehelm Tigers facing shortage of players for the season By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter The season opener against Western Illinois Saturday is beginning to look much tougher for the Missouri Tigers, now that they have dwindling numbers. The most recent loss came this past week when junior quarterback Jim Dougherty, once considered a candidate for the starting job, tore ligaments in his right elbow. He will undergo surgery next week and will miss the season. To make matters worse, Coach Larry Smith announced in a press release that two more Tigers had been suspended last weekend. The players, sophomore wide receiver Travis Garvin and redshirt freshman offensive tackle Cliff Young, were suspended for what Smith described as team rules violations. Both will miss Saturday's game but will be eligible to play Sept. 9 at Clemson. Smith would not elaborate as to the specific cause for the suspensions. These suspensions are just the latest for the Tigers. Sophomore cornerback John McPherson was suspended July 27 and then excused from the team a week later, following his arrest. During a traffic stop, police pulled McPherson to the side of the road and found 100 pounds of marijuana in a shoebox in his trunk. In other Big 12 Conference football news, Kansas State opened its season with a 27-7 victory against Big 10 Conference doormat Iowa in the Eddie Robinson Classic. The Wildcats were not satisfied with the win, and with good reason. All-American kick returner David Allen, who also starts at running back, suffered a twisted left knee on a punt return in the fourth quarter. In addition to Allen's injury, K-State struggled with holding onto the ball. The Wildcats had four fumbles but lost only one. Quarterback Jonathan Beasley also threw two interceptions. Read more Big 1.2 football news, including more highlights of Saturday's K-State game. See page 8B More information "On the (first) one the guy made a great play. The other, I didn't even see him," he said. Defensively the Wildcats were superb, holding the Hawkeyes to 156 total yards and seven points, scored on a touchdown by Ladell Betts, junior running back. They were the first points given up by the Wildcats in the third quarter for more than a year. —Edited by Glisson Abreu Students get pumped at Get Ready Rally Continued from page 1B "This is our big push." Mullen said. it's going to "be" a dramatic incident, senior running back Moran Norris said. Konner "This is our big pusit, Munir saath." After most fans received their football tickets, they listened as a few of the captains addressed the crowd. "It's going to be a fantastic, fabulous season." Everyone healthy — Kansas' football team is finally healing now that two-a-day practices are finished. Several players missed action because of the heat. Junior wide receiver Harrison Hill is the only one still ailing. Senior safety Carl Ne Smith is back after suffering a second-degree concussion last Saturday in Kansas' first full-contact scrimmage. Passing grades — Coach Terry Allen also announced Friday that all of the Jayhawk newcomers have been declared eligible by the NCAA. "We are always positive about this situation, but it is a relief when we found out for sure," he said. Thank the Lord for the nighttime — KU had a night practice under the lights at Memorial Stadium for the second straight evening Friday. The team played a situational non-contact scrimmage. "Tonight we tried to give them more of a mental scrimmage," Allen said. "There were some mistakes, but that's to be expected. Overall, we were relatively sharp on what we were looking for." All five quarterbacks on the Kansas roster saw action during the scrimmage. Senior starter Dylan Smith completed five-of-10 passes (three drops) for 49 yards. Redshirt freshman Zach Dyer went five-of-five for 41 yards, freshman Kevin Long was two-of-five for 38 yards, sophomore Jonas Weatherbie finished two-of-four for 10 and freshman Mario Kinsey completed three-of-five attempts for 21 yards.

Lawrence Athletic Club 3201 Mesa Way 785-842-4966 New coach is old hand Softball assistant was manager, married pitcher sports@kansan.com Special to the Kansan money so I applied." By Ryan Dolan The Kansas softball team announced the addition of a new assistant coach, Aaron Clopton, last week. Like any basketball player that grew up in Kansas, Clopton wanted to walk on to the Kansas basketball team and play for Roy Williams in front of thousands of screaming fans in Allen Fieldhouse. But Clopton never made the team. "New" is a relative term. "I saw an ad when I started my sophomore year to do fieldwork on the softball diamond for ten bucks an hour," Clopton said. "I thought that was pretty good Shortly after he was hired, the softball manager resigned, and Clopton started to perform the duties. That same spring a softball player named Sarah Workman redshirted because of an injured elbow. Consequently, Workman and Clopton spent a lot of time together during practice. we started dating and a couple of months later we were engaged," he said. "It was that fast." The Andover native managed the softball team for three years before graduating in 1999. Clopton and Workman married that summer. "Softball has been good to me," Clopton said. "It's given me a wife and it's given me a job to pay for the wife." Clopton's softball career has paid off for Kansas softball coach Tracy Bunge as well. "The thing about Aaron is that he's a high-quality person and has a tremendous knowledge of the game." Bunge said. "Aaron was always around. He helped out with hardcore meetings and sat in on Clopton's duties will include recruiting, coordinating team travel plans and hitting instruction, as well as working in the field with the position players. A sports junkie who played baseball, football and basketball growing up, Clopton said he always wanted to coach at the collegiate level. strategy sessions." "I always thought it would be in basketball, not football," he said. "I think it's something I'll stick with for a very long time." Clopton started coaching the Ottawa University basketball team in 1999 before deciding to return to his managing post with the softball squad. "I love learning and studying about sports," said Clopton, who is currently studying for his masters in sports science at the University. "Sociology and psychology are big aspects of coaching. I feel learning makes you a better person and a better coach." - Edited by John Audiehelm Royals beat Red Sox, heat The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Dave McCarty and Jermaine Dye each hit two-run homers and Dan Reichert won his fourth straight decision as Kansas City beat Boston 11-7 yesterday in withering 100-degree heat. The official temperature in downtown Kansas City in the sixth inning was 102, while the thermometer at a hotel across from R Royals Kauffman Stadium read 103. Reichert has not lost since July 16, the date of Boston knuckleballer Tim Wakefield's last victory. Wakefield (6-9), who began the year 7-2 lifetime against Kansas Reichert (8-6) got his fourth win in five starts, giving up three runs on six hits with five strikeouts and two walks in 5 2-3 innings. City, lost to the Royals for the second time this month and fell to 0-4 during his last eight starts. He lasted five innings and was charged with nine runs — seven earned — on eight hits, striking out five and walking three. The Royals jumped on Wakefield for three runs in a second inning that had Boston manager Jimy Williams yelling at home plate umpire Pat Spieler. After Wilson Delgado's basesloaded RBI single, Jeff Reboulet hit a tapper back to the mound. But Spieler ruled that McCarty was safe coming in from third because catcher Scott Hatteberg's foot was not on the plate when he took Wakefield's throw. Johnny Damon added a sacrifice fly, then Dye made it 5-0 with his two-run homer in the third, his 31st. In the fifth, Mike Sweeney hit an RBI single and later scored from third on an unusual fielder's choice when Lou Moriani caught Mark Quinn's foul pop behind third base and threw to first in a futile try for a double play. McCarty hit Wakefield's next pitch for a two-run homer, his 11th, and a 9-1 lead. Merloni had two sacrifice flies, then ignited a four-run eighth inning against Chris Fussell with an RBI double. Trot Nixon, who had an RBI single in the sixth, added a sacrifice fly in the eighth before Mike Lansing's RBI single. Boston cut it to 1-17 when Damon bobbled Jose Offerman's single to center. The Royals got two runs in the sixth on Dye's sacrifice fly and Quinn's fielder's choice.

Monday, August 28, 2000 Defense saves Wildcats against Iowa Hawkeyes The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. - David Allen's injured ankle was in a cast yesterday, but Kansas State coach Bill Snyder insisted he was not worried about his star kick returner and running back. "Not a break," Snyder said. "He has been casted for precautionary measures." After viewing films of No. 8 Kansas State's 27-7 victory against Iowa on Saturday in the Eddie Robinson Classic, Snyder also changed his mind about the illegal block call that nullified what would have been an NCAA-record eight touchdown punt return for Allen. At the time the 86-yard return was called back. Snider was furious. "There was no penalty," Snyder said. "And that's unfortunate. I feel bad for him (Dyshod Carter) because that had to rest on his mind." The final score in the heat-drenched game might look respectable enough. But with five minutes left in Arrowhead Stadium, Iowa trailed the heavily favored Wildcats only 17-7 and was driving. Then came the interception when a pass bounced off the receiver's head. A moment later, it was 24-7, but Kansas State had little to boast about other than a gritty effort by the defense. But Jerametrius Butter picked Scott Mullen's pass off the helmet of Kevin Kasper and brought it back 32 yards to the 15. A few minutes later, senior quarterback Jonathan Beasley squeezed into the end zone for an 8-yard touchdown run. The final score came with 1:38 left on a Jamie Rheem field goal. "We played well defensively." Snyder said. "We gave up seven points, and those seven points came off the offense and the turnovers." Iowa, coming off a 1-10 season, managed just nine first downs and 158 total vards. Mullen hit 10 of 26 passes for 76 vards and was intercepted once. The Hawkeyes, who have to play at No. 1. Nebraska in a couple of weeks before plunging into their rugged Big Ten schedule, had nothing to be ashamed of. "We didn't come down here to be a scout team," Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. "That wasn't our goal at all." "We certainly would have liked to move the ball better." Ferentz said. We also knew that Kansas State had a pretty good pass defense." Bears' Cicero wants second quarterback, Big 12 chance WACO, Texas — Greg Cleero had anticipated being a starting quarterback in the Big 12 Conference by now. He just expected the circumstances — and the team — to be different. The Associated Press Cicero would probably be in the battle to be the starting quarterback for seventh-ranked Texas, the league's South Division favorite, if not for a serious injury he suffered while with the Longhorns before the 1998 season. Instead, he is about 100 miles north of Austin as a junior college transfer and the hand-picked starter for coach Kevin Steele at Baylor, which has lost 13 straight 12 game and has won just five games since 1996. "I did expect probably different things when I first went to Texas," Cicero said. "I thought I'd be starting at least by my second year. I'm not worried about the Texas thing as much as I'm looking forward to getting back in the Big 12." Cicero's chance to start at Texas, where he was a highly touted recruit out of California, never came. Cicero tore knee ligaments and fractured his left leg on the final play of a scrimmage just before the 1998 season. He was forced to sit and watch as fell redshirt freshman Major Applewhite — his friend and roommate the previous summer — settled in as the Texas starter. Cicero will finally get his first Division I-A shot Thursday when Baylor opens its season at North Texas. Two months later, on the last Saturday in October, the Bears travel to Austin and he gets a chance to finally play a game there. While Baylor was struggling to a 1-10 record in Steele's first season and Applewhite was setting records at Texas as a sophomore last season, Cicero was passing for 2,800 yards and 33 touchdowns at Palomar Junior College in California. At that same time, Steele was looking in the junior college ranks for his next quarterback. "We went out and canvassed the country to try to find a guy that we thought fit our system ... and be a starter immediately." Steele said. Steele had a list of about six possibilities. Cicero became the top candidate, especially after the coach became aware of the Big 12 connection and the understandable reason for his departure from Texas.

Extreme temperatures and high humidity have posed the threat of heat exhaustion or heat stroke to joggers. Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN BONITA FONTANE Record heat can exhaust students By Melissa Davis writer@kanson.com Kansan staff write Record high heat in Lawrence the past two days has left some students wilting in the summer sun. The National Weather Service said temperatures soared to 109 degrees yesterday, tying Sunday's mark, which set the national high for that day. With the sweltering heat comes the risk of heat-related illnesses. Though physicians at Watkins Memorial Health Center have not yet treated anyone for serious heat-related afflictions, they have seen students with mild symptoms, Myra Strother, a Watkins physician, said. She said there were three types of heat-related illnesses; heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. These illnesses most often are caused by dehydration, loss of electrolytes — the chemicals needed for cells to function — or failure of the body's cooling mechanisms. The most common of the three — heat cramps, or muscle cramps caused by hot temperatures — usually develop after exercising in the heat or because of loss of fluid. If heat cramps continue, they may develop into heat exhaustion, she said. Heat exhaustion occurs when the body heats up because of exercise or environmental changes but the body is too exhausted by the heat to keep in with its own cooling process. "The body overheats because of certain regulatory mechanisms," Strother said. "If it is really humid out and you are losing water rapidly, it throws off electrolytes, putting the body out of regulation." See HEAT on page 6A EXHAUSTION TIPS What to do if you or someone you know might be suffering from a heat-related illness: - Cool off in the shade - Drink plenty of water or other noncaffeinated fluids - If possible, move the person to an air-conditioned room with a fan - If the person is unconscious or vomiting, seek medical attention immediately Drivers charged in accident that killed KU student By Derek Prater writer@kansan.com Kansas senior staff writer A University of Kansas student and a Kansas City, Mo., man were arrested during the weekend and charged with vehicular homicide in the death of KU student Laura Leftwich. Master Trooper Terry Berner of the Kansas Highway Patrol said both Alex Wolfson, 19, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, and Billy Breedlove, 43, voluntarily turned themselves into the Leavenworth County Sheriff's Department. Wolfson was released on a $5,000 bond, and Breedlove still was being held as of yesterday morning. yesterday morning. Frank Kohl, Leavenworth County prosecutor, said vehicular homicide was a misdemeanor that carried a sentence of up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Leftwich, a Skokie, Ill. sophomore, died Aug. 13 from injuries sustained in an accident the previous day on Interstate 70 about --- seven miles east of Lawrence. According to Berner: Wolfson was driving a 1988 four-door Honda Accord west on I-70 with Leftwich in the passenger seat, when he changed lanes from the left passing lane to the right lane, allowing a blue Geo hatchback driven by Breedlove to pass. When Breedlove passed, an altercation took place between the drivers. Wolfson then pulled back into the passing lane behind Breedlove, and Breedlove braked suddenly. Wolfson swerved his car to miss the Geo and lost control of Lefwifin: died from injuries sustained in an Aug. 13 car accident on l-70 it. Wolfson's vehicle spun and came to rest in the right lane facing oncoming traffic. A truck then hit the car head-on. Wolfson was transported to Providence Memorial Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., where he was treated and released. Leftwich was flown by helicopter to the University of Kansas Medical Center, where she died the next morning. Breedlove's car was not hit in the accident, and he left the scene. He then stopped at the East Lawrence turnpike exit and told a toll collector that he had been involved in a wreck. The toll collector told Breedlove to wait for a trooper, but Breedlove drove off. He contacted investigators Aug. 13 about his role in the accident. In addition to vehicular homicide, Breedlove was charged with leaving the scene of an injury accident, a misdemeanor that carries the same sentence as vehicular homicide, and two traffic infractions: following too Wolson also was charged with following too closely. closely and failure to give proper notice when reducing speed. Kohl said that both Wolfson and Breedlove were scheduled for first appearances in Leavenworth County Court either yesterday or today, depending on how fast other cases were handled. Legal representation is determined at the first appearance, and the judge will set a trial date once each defendant has a lawyer present.

Jerry Little, Douglas County assistant district attorney, and his family were in the house at the time, said Debi Moore, who lives across the street. She said all the family members were asleep but were able to get out safely. Her 15-year-old daughter said she thought she saw flames coming from a tree in the Little's yard as she was getting ready for bed, Moore said. Moore said she then looked out the window and saw flames coming from the roof and called 911. She then tried to call the occupants to make sure everyone was safe, but she said the line already was dead. "My husband went running across the street, but he couldn't get past the driveway because it was so hot," Moore said. cul-de-sac to wake them up. "It's an awful thing," said Mark Moore, neighbor.

Firefighters and other emergency personnel were dispatched at 10:50 p.m., said Jervv Karr, battalion chief. Karr said the damage was extensive, but there was no known cause or estimation of the damage yet. He said the fire seemed to be on the east end of the house with a lot of damage to the roof. "We heard almost an implosion." Moore said. "It was like something collapsed in the house. It could have been the deck, the roof. There was a noise, and the flames billowed up." Moore said it was hard to see the house because there was so much smoke. Speaker urges men to be aware of gender-violence prevention Jackson Katz refers to a list of suggestions of ways for women to protect themselves from assault that was given by members of the packed Lied Center audience during his speech last night. Katz's speech focused on breaking down stereotypes about "womens issues" and "gender-specific issues." Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN Camping a cell phone Don't let strangers stay your curbs Don't walk alone at night Kick your doors creeping Russ hands and ready to a wagon taking us headphones while running your drink always let people kiss curtains when you go in when you can talk in Jackson Katz said gender violence was not only a female issue but encompassed all of society. By Rob Pazoll writer@kanans.com Kansas staff writer In his presentation, "More Than a Few Good Men: A Lecture on American Manhood and Violence Against Woman," last night at the Lied Center, Katz said violent crimes against women also affected the men who cared about them. "A vast majority of violence against women are perpetrated by men." Katz said, "Rape as a woman's issue shifts focus away from men. Oftentimes, we hear gender and think woman — as if men don't have a gender also." Katz, founder and director of the Mentors in Violence Program, said he had problems with gender violence being tagged as just a women's issue. Katz presented an exercise that asked the female audience members what they did to protect themselves against strangers. After this exercise, he warned females to be careful of who they dated, who they socialized with and who they married. He said gender issues could be problematic for some males who dismissed it as a female problem if the word gender was involved. "Every issue that affects women affects men, too." Katz said. "It's usually not some nameless, faceless psycho," Katz said. "It's usually a husband, a boyfriend or somebody close." Katz put an emphasis on the male role in gender-violence prevention, telling them not to be silent. "Being silent is a way of being complacent with the situation." Katz said. Student-atheletes were required to attend the lecture. Gary Kempf, director of Student Athlete Life and Coaches development, said “It's usually not some nameless, faceless psycho.It's usually a husband,a boyfriend or somebody close." Jackson Katz director of violence awareness program the Athletics Department wanted athletes to develop total personal skills as well as athletic and academic skills. "This is just like a team meeting," Kempf said. "We're trying to educate them and give "If we can get guys with status, they can affect a larger sphere of influence," Katz said. In his presentation, Katz used male student-athletes as an example of a group who could have an impact on reversing gender violence. them an alternative way to handle difficult situations." Ann Waddell, Minnetonka, Minn., junior, and volunteer for the event, said she was impressed with the turnout. "I know a lot of people were required to be here," Waddell said. "But even if they were or weren't required, I hope the message will sink in." — Edited by Warisa Chulindra 4 2A The Inside Front Tuesday August 29, 2000 News from campus, the state, the nation and the world LAWRENCE LOS ANGELES ABUJA CAMPUS Seminar guarantees students 4.0 GPAs Donna O.

Sixth St., at about 11:25 p.m. friday, Lawrence police said. Detective M.T. Brown said an employee behind the counter saw the two men come in. Two other employees were working at the time. One of the suspects walked behind the counter, pulled a handgun from his waistband and stuck the gun in the employee's ribs.

Clinton was flying to Tanzania yesterday, where former South African President Nelson Mandela and other mediators have tried for weeks to craft a cease-fire in Burundi's seven-year civil war. ON THE RECORD - The Associated Press On the eve of the hoped-for agreement, rebels fired on Bujumbura, Burundi's capital. The administration, noting that some rebel groups have not come to the negotiating table, declined to connect Clinton's visit to a signing ceremony and cast it instead as a show of support for Mandela.

The larger building would allow the Merc to stock a greater selection of fresh foods and compete with other natural-food chains. Photo by Carrie Julian/KANSAN Merc could move to old IGA location By Matt Merkel-Hass writer@kansasan.com Kansasan staff writer The Merc is seeing green on a move to a larger store in a new location. The board of the Community Mercantile Co-op, 901 Mississippi St., voted unanimously last week to pursue a lease for the former Alvin's IGA building in the Hillcrest Shopping Center at Ninth and Iowa streets. The building's owner set a Friday deadline for a decision. case agreement is in place. "We'll be able to offer more, which Remodeling would begin once a lease agreement is in place. is great for students," said Nancy O'Connor, the Merc's marketing director. "I think we'll be real strong with the deli because we'll have better facilities and more to go food." The new location has twice as much space as the current store and will allow the Merc to stock fresh meat, vegetables and other items typically found in supermarkets. Marina Cuevas, Malaga, Spain junior, shops at the Merc and said she liked the idea of a new location. "I live in the Hillcrest area, so it would be great," Cuevas said. "I don't think the Merc will lose its integrity or anything, and the qual- itv will still be intact." O'Connor said the board and management team decided to move in an effort to stay competitive. it was a very thoughtful decision," O'Connor said. "We are trying to be forward-thinking because of growth in Lawrence. This cements us as a leader in natural foods." If everything goes as planned, the new location could open in early spring. O'Connor said expansion and growth had been the norm for independent co-ops across the country. Increasing competition from natural food chains such as Wild Oats and Whole Foods or natural foods sec tions such as the Sixth Street HyVeet's 10,000-square foot natural-products section are making it harder for independent co-op to survive. "Co-ops are either expanding, changing or growing, or they're not surviving," O'Connor said. Alvin Schmidtberger, the former owner of Alvin's IGA and owner of Alvin's Wines and Spirits, 901 Iowa St., said he thought the new anchor store would improve Hillcrest. "I think it's going to be fantastic for the shopping center and fantastic for the Merc," Schmidberger said. "I can't wait for them to move in." — Edited by Casey Franklin Recruitment changes attract more women Kansan staff writer wrinter@kanson.com By J.D. McKee Sorority recruitment this year yielded a higher number of pledges than in previous years, possibly because of changes made in the recruitment process. The length of the recruitment period was shortened to allow the girls to focus on school, and participants were given the same shirts to wear during the process. "The number of women placed is a bit more than last year," said Kelly Jok Karnes, assistant director and coordinator for Greek programs. The number of women who signed with sororities reached 667 this year. Karnes said. The recruitment period was different from previous years in that it was altered to last four days, for 12 hours each day. The reason for the change was so the women wouldn't be distracted from school. "Last year, preference day was on Friday," said Erin Bandy, Panhellenic Association vice president for public relations. "This year, it's on Wednesday. It puts more emphasis on school, and we thought it went better." Karnes said it also allowed the women to enjoy Hawk Week and other University of Kansas activities. Andrea Hughey, Overland Park freshman, said she thought the extended days were tiring, but worth it. "it's better we got it all before classes start," she said. Hughey said the T-shirts were equalizers. The women also were given plain shirts this year instead of wearing their own apparel. "It starts everyone off on the same basis," Hughey said. "This takes the pressure off the women from feeling like they were being judged by what they wore and focus on personality." Bandy said. The men's recruitment process also was changed from last year. Formal recruitment was held before school started this year rather than in the fall to speed up the pledging process. "Some [who had signed in the fall] weren't able to be pledges until the next spring," said Ryan Gerstner, Interfraternity Council vice president for recruitment. More than 500 men have signed so far. Gerstner said. "It's been an exceptional year," he said. "Overall, the chapters are a lot happier about the move." Although formal recruitment has ended, Gerstner said the IFC still had groups that recruited throughout the year. Those interested can contact the IFC at 864-4961. Summer enrollment increases by 4 percent at Lawrence and Edwards campuses — Edited by Amy Randolph By Kursten Phelps writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The official enrollment for the University of Kansas for the 2000 summer session topped out at 10,526 students, which was an increase of nearly 4 percent more than the 1999 summer session. while enrollment at the Med Center decreased by 53 students. That number, up from 10,128 students last summer, includes all students who attend the University's Lawrence and Edwards campuses as well as the University of Kansas Medical Center. the Lawrence and Edwards campuses increased by 451 student- an increase that Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost for academic services, said was significant. "We've seen a lot of growth at the Edwards Campus," McCluskey-Fawcett said. "We started offering undergraduate classes there this summer, and there was interest from students that were in the greater Kansas City area during the summer." Although the official numbers for credit-hour enrollment at the Edwards Campus were not available, Sally Frost-Mason, dean of "Summer school is always very carefully planned so that there's enough space." Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett Associate provost the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said she was pleased with the undergraduate turnout at the satellite campus. "It was an experiment this year, and it seemed to work well," Frost-Mason said. "There were students taking everything from biology to philosophy." McCluskey-Fawcett said although enrollment increased significantly, there were no problems with space or class availability. "Summer school is always very carefully planned so that there's enough space," she said. McCluskey-Fawcett added that although there was a significant increase for the 2000 summer session, it was difficult to predict if that trend would continue in the future. "You never know year to year," she said. "It depends on the economy and the courses offered — factors we can't control."

Gone are his attempts to champion workplace safety, corporate accountability, and workers' rights. He has turned savagely against them. He is now the hired gun of the Green Party, and his enemy is ... Al Gore. Normally I'd be thrilled by the prospect of trouble for Gore, who is as charming and likable a man as week-dead haddock. But the alternative this election year is Dubya Bush, who makes the haddock look downright attractive. Why couldn't the Republican Party have nominated a brighter, less shallow candidate? Like Mike Loader columnist opinion@kansan.com It's enough to drive a good conservative to a third party, just as Gore is enough to drive liberals screaming into the arms of Nader. say, the chimpanzee of your choice? Don't do it, folks. I know it's tempting, but voting for a third-party candidate is almost as meaningless an act as not voting at all. If you vote for Nader, Bush and his oil companies will beam in delight. If you vote for Buchanan, Gore and the Buddhist temple of the week will offer up mantras for your soul. Third-party candidates have never done more than briefly highlight the narrow cause they champion, usually damaging it in the process. And why would you vote for these people anyway? Nader is a natural watchdog against consumer endangerment; his record in that regard is admirable and to be applauded. But a president cannot be a man with only one issue. The commander-in-chief must wear many hats, and should be not only well-versed but also genuinely interested in all the facets of running the greatest country on the planet. Nader cannot. He is obsessed with his crusade to the exclusion of most of the rest of the world. As for Buchanan, well, what can you say about a man who combines the best features of Hitler, Stalin, and Neville Chamberlain? My ballot is still up in the air. The thought of voting for Gore makes part of me recoil in horror. But the more I examine Shrub Bush, the more frightened I become. Like many conservatives, I believe in character, hard work, initiative, self-sufficiency and moral strength. George W. Bush has proven himself sadly deficient in all of these areas. I used these pages to condemn him during the Republican primaries for grievous defects in character and conduct. I see no reason to change my tune just because he won. Two unappetizing choices. But sometimes that's what life gives us. My vote will go to one of them because I want my ballot to make a difference. Tough choices can never be solved by retreating into a more pleasant mental delusion, whether it goes by the name of the Green or Reform Party.

Legal or illegal, Napster, a popular MP3-sharing program being sued by the Recording Industry Association of America, deserves support. It is single-handedly saving music from the corporatization that has overtaken the recording industry. Although corporate labels appear to be looking out for artists' financial well-being, they are really motivated by the drive for profits. Napster's power is its ability to introduce many listeners to artists without the use of a record label. For an organization that claims to be acting on artists' behalf, the RIAA's members are anything but unified in support of artists. The companies behind the RIAA straddle the fence, spouting double talk about piracy while subtly encouraging participation in illegal MP3 trading if there's a profit in it. Sony Music Entertainment Inc., Sony's conglomeration of music subsidiaries, is one of the record labels leading the charge against Napster. Meanwhile, Sony's consumer electronics division is busy churning out portable MP3 players, sold for a hefty profit to Napster users on the go. Similarly, Time Warner Inc.'s subsidiary, Warner Music Group, backs the RIAA lawsuit while its Internet subsidiaries, Road Runner and America Online (pending federal approval), simultaneously make millions of dollars providing an infrastructure that makes file transfers possible. Corporate schizophrenia aside, it's clear that this isn't a battle about property rights or artists' well-being. This is a battle about corporate profits. Shawn Fanning, Napster's creator, beat the major labels to the online music revolution, and they're bitter that they didn't get their slice of the pie. The fact that Fanning has achieved the consumer base to make millions in profit and continues to offer music for free must only infuriate record executives more. In an industry where CDs are made for less than $1 and then sold for $15 and up, profits are enormous While artists can, and do, gross large profits from CD sales, the real money is being made by the record labels. Whether deciding which bands get radio promotion or how much to spend on marketing, these labels exert enormous leverage on artists, trapping them in a no-win situation — play by our rules or never make it big. "An increasing number of young people don't buy albums, so we are not only losing that immediate revenue ... They are growing up with a notion that music is free and ought to be free," he said. Richard Parsons, president of Time Warner Inc., put it bluntly in a recent issue of The Los Angeles Times. Napster's promise lies in its ability to cut the labels and corporations from the equation. In a world where any artist can distribute his or her music directly to an unlimited audience without getting trapped by the record moguls, musicians can truly thrive. Regardless of the legal technicalities, Napster deserves our respect. It's moving us from a recording "industry" toward an era of true musical freedom. Joe Jarvis for the editorial board Editorial Banning Napster would end piracy The program's users are greedy and steal money from artists. Many musicians have found themselves fighting against Napster, a company that enables computer users to download MP3 files onto their hard drives and CDs, and for good reason. Greed is the overwhelming drive of most Napster users. If you support an artist, go out and get the album. Snagging it from Napster doesn't pay them a cent, and as Sheryl Crow put it, is nothing more than the theft. College campuses, traditionally where CD sales thrive, are now where Napster use is the highest. According to www.stopnapster.com, CD sales where Napster is most common dropped 4 percent this year. The users cannot blame the industry for costs. The high-cost argument would hold water only if Napster were the only way to hear music cheaply. Why not listen to the radio or buy the CD used? From an artistic point of view, Napster takes an endless amount of emotion and purpose from music. Rarely are songs meant to stand alone. Albums are put together in a sequence, where one song is intended to be heard after another, whether they are related in subject or not. A considerable amount of time is spent on song placement on an album, and Napster nullifies this album effect. But the most faulty argument for Napster's existence is that the bands and the music labels already have enough money. Who are we, as consumers, to decide when an artist has earned enough money? Isn't that the band's decision? Plenty of people would say that some college students or computer users have too much money, but that does not give them the right to steal from artists. While an immediate answer may not exist, a possible solution to this music downloading is to alter the make-up of CDs, if the artists so desires, to prohibit the creation of an MP3 of one of their songs. This would also benefit the smaller bands who rely on MP3 swapping because only their MP3s would be available for download. Although it is unlikely both sides will agree on a solution, stealing or cheating others out of their reward is unfair and should be put to an end.

Call 864-4924 or e-mail opinion@kansan.com I'm a moderate sports fan with a small gripe about the way certain sports are covered in the journalism world. It seems that there are some major problems in sports, according to a lot of journalists. The problem is with the conduct of many players, some might even say they are selfish. My problem is that only basketball and football players are targeted by these objective journalists. They have problems with players hogging the ball or celebrating after a sack or, God forbid, talking about themselves. But the conduct of hockey players never seems to come up amongst these reporters. Hockey players beat each other senseless. Are these people not thugs? They fight until they hit the floor. When they get done fighting, they go sit in the penalty box for a number of minutes while their team struggles because it is lacking a player. So in hockey, not only is fighting brutal, it is selfish. The whole team has to suffer because certain players can't put their team before their own need to prove their manhood. Since when has basking in the spotlight become worse than bashing somebody's face in? I guess it all depends on who's doing the bashing and who's doing the basking. Joe Carter South Bend, Ind., senior Democrats wrongly point fingers in leak On August 24 the Kansan reprinted an Associated Press story ("Lewinsky scandal not over yet") in covering the "leaked" news that Independent Counsel Robert Ray has impaneled a new grand jury to investigate President Clinton's possible perjury and obstruction of justice during the Lewinsky scandal. Unfortunately by then, that piece already was a week old and contained only half the story. On the 17th, Democrats and their media allies scrambled to accuse Republicans of strategically "leaking" the news in order to disrupt Al Gore's acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention. Surely, it had to be those mean, low-down Republicans who played this political dirty trick, right? Dan Rather sure thought so, the White House sure thought so, and every Democrat who could find a TV camera that day was willing to bet his/her last dime that Republicans were to blame. By the 20th, though, the truth was out: Federal Judge Richard Cudahy, a Carter appointee and one of the three overseers of Ray's investigation, inadvertently gave the information to a reporter. So, the presumptuous charge of a Republican dirty trick is as baseless and silly as the Democrats' predictably sanctimonious rantings. By the way, the leaders of the accusatory mob, Reps. Charles Rangel, (D.N.Y.) and Jesse Jackson Jr., (D.-C.) have yet to apologize. John H. McCool Evansville, Ind., graduate student It's easy voting Green In response to the question to Green or not to Green ... If you're from a regressive, conservative state that can't even decide whether to teach basic science like evolution, such as Kansas, then by all means, Green, Green, Green! Al Gore doesn't stand a snowball's chance in the August Kansas heat of winning this state. Because we elect the president by our winner-takes-all electoral college, a vote for Al Gore is the truly wasted vote. On the other hand, a vote for Ralph Nader helps the Green Party reach the 5 percent minimum nationwide needed to receive federal matching funds in the next election. So while voters in battleground states that could go for either Bush or Gore may have a tough choice to make, the answer in Kansas is clear: This year, it's easy voting Green. Besides, as much as Gore may speak of fighting for the people instead of the privileged, he won't seriously challenge the control that corporations have grasped over American society and government.

According to an advertisement that Hunsaker, Lawrence sophomore, read in the Aug. 21 issue of the Kansan, all incoming students had received $5 from Coca-Cola on their KUIDs. After picking up his KUID at the Card Center in the Kansas Union late Friday morning, Hunsaker headed to a Coke machine. Yet when he put his new card into the machine, he discovered it had no value. He said two other students also shared the same frustration while he was there. "I just was surprised it was zero," he said. "I thought maybe the Card Center had forgotten to credit $5 on the smart chin." But Hunsaker learned that the Card Center had not ered. Diane Goddard, assistant associate provost and comptroller, said that only new students who had received their KUIDs at summer orientation sessions in June and July had the $5 promotional bonus, which she said could be used on soft drinks, photocopying and some other products sold on campus. Hunsaker, a transfer student who did not attend a summer orientation session, said the advertisement should have explained the terms and conditions of the promotion. Matt Fisher. sales and marketing adviser to the Kansan , acknowledged the misleading ad. "Apparently, there was a little bit of miscommunication within the ad, and it wasn't as clear as it could have been," he said. Fisher said that after members of the advertising staff had received copy and materials from Coke, they designed the ad and sent it to the company for proofing. But Kathy Williams, district manager for Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of Mid-America in Lenexa, gave a different account of the proofing. "We actually didn't see a proof," she said. Williams also said the company regretted the misunderstanding in the ad. "Unfortunately, the ad did not capture exactly what happened," she said. — Edited by Kimberly Thompson Lawrence Athletic Club L.C.

Smith has been suffering from heat- and flu-related symptoms and may not start in Saturday's game at Southern Methodist. Redshirt freshman Zach Dyer may start for Kansas, playing in his first game since his senior year of high school. Kansan file photo By Jason Franchuk As football practice dragged on in the suffocating heat, Kansas coach Terry Allen saw an athletic trainer fiddling with an electronic thermometer. kansan sports writer sports@kansan.com Allen asked the athletic trainer how hot it was. The response, 108 degrees with 26 percent humidity, made Allen take off his hat, rub his forehead and mutter to himself. But he did not need to know the heat index to realize how much trouble the Jayhawks are in — especially at quarterback. Practice had barely started yesterday when Kansas' starting senior quarterback, Dylan Smith, left and vomited on the walkway in between the two practice fields. Smith also left practice early Saturday and missed the "Get Ready Rally" that night. Allen reported at the pep rally that Smith had been admitted to a hospital for heat-related fatigue, but that was not the case. Allen said, at the time, Smith's woes were not serious, and everything being done was precautionary. "It's more flu-related," Allen said of Smith's symptoms. "He just said 'it's coming up, and coming up quick.' You can figure out what that means." Along with Smith, third-string quarter-back Jonas Weatherbie left practice early suffering from the same illness as Smith. That leaves Zach Dyer, a redshirt freshman, as a possible starter if Smith does not recover in time for Saturday's opener at Southern Methodist. Assuming Smith does not heal, "Zach would go," Allen said. "But I'm not excited for him to go." Smith, who transferred from a junior college in Santa Monica, Calif., last year, started the final eight games last season. He threw for 1,599 yards and 12 touchdowns and entered this season as the nodoubt-about-it starter. However, as Smith alls, Dyer has received the brunt of the practice repetitions. "It's tough sometimes," said Kansas quarterbacks coach Jay Johnson of the quarterback situation. "But it allows the younger guys to get some opportunities. We've not a good supporting cast." "He's got good athleticism, and he can run well," Johnson said of Dyer. Johnson said he thought Dyer would be ready, even though Dyer had not played in a game since his senior year at Oathe South. Although Dyer, at 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, is two inches and 20 pounds bigger than Smith, Johnson said their abilities were comparable. Still, some players limped off the field, victims of the heat wave. Because of that, Allen moved today's practice to 6:45 p.m. at Memorial Stadium. He saw no point in continuing to fight the conditions. Head athletic trainer Lynn Bott said there was no time frame for Smith and the others to recover. Once the symptoms — headache, dizziness and vomiting — arrive, there's no telling when good health will return. Bott said. It varies from player to player, and Bott said he was surprised by who had been affected. Bott is just as concerned, however, about making sure the epidemic does not get worse. Kansas' athletic trainers tried just about everything to reprieve the team from the heat. Two tents and several enormous fans were placed in a couple locations. Water and ice were accessible to the players, who were given a five-minute water break an hour into practice. "Hopefully, everybody's eating breakfast, lunch and dinner," Bott said. "I'm literally telling them all the time. That's just as important as water." Redshirt ready for action - Edited by Warisa Chulindra Freshman running offense for ailing quarterback Smith By Jason Franchuk Kansan sports writer sports@kansan.com Zach Dyer does not want to be treated like a fourth-grade. He's ready to play football after red-shirting last season. The last year he didn't play was in fourth grade, which was also the first year he played. Dyer, Olathe sophomore, has been talked about this season as the redshirt-freshman kid who should be learning the offense while senior quarterback Dylen Smith plays. Smith, who is suffering from the flu, did not practice yesterday. He vomited on the field before retiring to the locker room. He also left practice early Saturday and does not appear to be getting better. Dyer is trying to seize the opportunity to show that Kansas' success does not hinge solely on Smith's participation. "I think I'm doing pretty well." Dyer said. "I've gotten quite a bit more confident with the offense." But Dyer may get his chance to grow up. Football coach Terry Allen has been consistent in saying that the back-ups are not prepared to play. Dyer objects, saying he is ready for action, and not in the sense that he thought Smith would eventually get hurt or he would wish some voodoo curse upon him. It is not uncommon for major college teams to require backups at some point, Dyer said. Even though there was no question when practices began that Smith was the starter and Dyer was the understudy, Dyer said his mental approach has been the same. "My mindframe has to be that I practice as if I am going to play." Dyer said. "Anymore, it's not uncommon for major college quarterbacks to go down." Quarterbacks coach Jay Johnson said he felt comfortable with Dyer playing. Smith may be considered the Jayhawk's undisputed leader, but Johnson said he thought Dyer could fill the role. "Anytime you're a quarterback, that's part of your responsibility," Johnson said. "You have to show you have confidence in yourself to be successful." Dyer admitted that while he understood what the offense was doing, he was still learning what attempts the defense was making to stop the plan. Because Smith and third-stringer Jonas Weatherbie did not practice yesterday because of dehydration, "My mindframe has to be that I practice as if I am going to play. Anymore, it's not uncommon for major college quarterbacks to go down." Zach Dyer Kansas back-up quarterback Kansas back-up quarterback Dyer took the majority of the snaps with the first team offense. Dyer doesn't think that the offense will have to change much if he starts instead of Smith. He says the two have similar styles. He also brags that his time in the 40-yard dash is faster than Smith's. Smith has brought mobility to the Kansas attack, but Dyer feels he can duplicate it. "In high school, I had to scramble around quite a bit," Dyer said. Dyer also has devised a better strategy than the coaches, trainers and players — especially the quarterbacks — to ward off effects from the heat. His words of wisdom sound like someone prepared to be a leader and someone who will not let his abilities slide. "You've just go to drink," Dyer said. "You can't wait until practice. I bring a water bottle to all my classes." - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Williams to visit homes of four local players for 2001 season By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Williams has deemed four Kansas recruits worthy of in-home visits. He will head to Halstead to visit with highly regarded Dennis Latimore, 6-9 forward from Halstead High School and to Kansas City to make his pitch to Jamar Howard, 6-6 forward from Bishop Miege High School in Shawnee Mission, and to Jeff Hawkins, 5-9 guard from Sumner High School in Kansas City, Kan. Throw Next summer, when repairs on the Kansas Turnpike have traffic backed up for miles, weary travelers can thank Roy Williams. After all, with all the turnpike recruiting the Jayhawk coach is doing this year, Williams can probably fund repaying from Emporia to Wellington. in the oral commitment that Leavenworth's Wayne Simien has already given the Jayhawks, and the 2001 recruiting class could definitely have a turnplike feel. Of course, Williams will also make his rounds to California and the Pacific coast, which can make his total in-home visits as high as 15. He also said that he would like his five scholarship players to fill all positions on the court, ranging from point guard to center. "This is as good a year in this area in a long, long time." Williams said. "I can never remember a year I've gone into four homes of local kids." Williams might visit even more players if he chooses to recruit on the east coast, where he has tried and failed before. "The largest factor in recruiting is KANSAS IN-STATE RECRUTING Name Height Pos. City (high school) Wayne Simien 6-8 F Leavenworth (Leavenworth)* Dennis Latimore 6-9 F Halstead (Halstead) Jeff Hawkins 5-9 G Kansas City, Kan. (Sumner) Jamar Howard 6-4 F Shawnee Mission (Bishop Miege) *already verbally committed KANSAS IN-STATE RECRUITING Sports Columnist geography." Williams said. "Why would a kid fly over schools like Syracuse and St. John's to come here?" Williams would know, because he tried recruiting eastern talent like Felipe Lopez and John Wallace in the past, only to see them sign elsewhere. So Williams will stick to where he's had success—the Pacific coast and the Sunflower State. Run, Crider, Run If last week's 12-minute run was any indication on who is in the best game shape, expect junior guard John Crider to run circles around the competition this season. Crider totaled eight and one-third laps to win the event for the third straight year. Sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich finished second, and senior guard Luke Axtell finished third. Williams said that Axtell's showing at the event proved that Axtell was well on the road to recovering from a groin injury he suffered while playing with a team of Big 12 Conference all-stars in Europe almost two weeks ago. Shawn Hutchinson Edited by Erin Adamson sports@kansan.com NFL's criminals could enliven voyeur TV shows for next season Here comes the confession. But the truth is, I predicted the outcome weeks ago. I was, um, one of the few people in the known universe to, um, you know, miss the finale of the television show, Survinor. I've been watching the World Wrestling Federation ever since I was 11 years old, so I know how these things work. The fat guy with no shirt, hairy chest and loose-fitting shorts almost always wins. Seriously, though, does anybody else hear the clock ticking on all this Survivor craze? Sure, 16 people stranded on an island is a novelty the first time around, but by the time Survivor II rolls around sometime next year, it's going to get old pretty fast. I think we all have learned this lesson from MTV's most recent installment of The Real World. So how is it possible to keep the freshness of the Survivor genre intact? I have the answer. namely those current and former NFL players who have been convicted of, charged with or associated with . Just hear me out on this one. How about next time around, instead of having normal people as the castaways, we include celebrities that we can relate to namely those can be convicted of players who have been convicted of, charged with or associated with a crime? Think about it. Marooning them on a deserted island out in the middle of the South China Sea would not only make for interesting viewing, but it also would mean the crime rate in the continental United States would drop considerably. I know I could definitely stand a joyous 39 days without having to read in the newspaper how former Chief Andre Rison was charged with passing $158,000 worth of bad checks. The list of potential castaways would be easy to assemble — Rison, Rae Carruth, Mark Chmura, Sebastian Janikowski, Bam Morris, Tamarick Vanover, Bill Romanowski, Michael Irvin, Lawrence Taylor, Ray Lewis and O.J. Simpson. Once all of these castaways pass physicals, and some check with their parole officers, off they would go to the island. Of course, each of the castaways would be allowed to take one "luxury" item with them. For example, Rison may want to take a fire extinguisher just in case his girlfriend decides to burn down his bamboo hut. To the winner? One thousand hours of community service. Every week we would watch the NFL players adapt to the island around them. Vanover, who earlier this year pleaded guilty to a federal charge of assisting in the sale of a stolen car, could use those skills to his advantage on the island. Just think of all the havoc he could wreak by stealing other castaways' coconuts and reselling them on the open market. Must see TV, indeed. NFL Survivor would possess this kind of excitement every week. And just like the original Survivor, I have already predicted the outcome of NFL Survivor. The final four castaways will consist of Rison, Vanover, Morris and Romanowski. Why? The "Three-Chief Alliance," made up of Rison, Vanover and Morris, will certainly team up and vote off the majority of the other castaways. Denver linebacker Romanowski, on the other hand, always seems to stick around long enough to be a thorn in the Chiefs' side. But Romo quickly gets the boot, and Rison gets disqualified after his girlfriend burns down his bamboo hut. Vanover stole the fire extinguisher in episode three. And Morris will be tossed off the island just because he always seems to screw something up. So that leaves the big winner to be Vanover, who 'once was my favorite football player but is now merely the butt of all my jokes. Hutchinson is an Overland Park senior in journalism. --- 2B Quick Looks Tuesday August 29,2000 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (Aua. 29). You have the wit and the charm. All you need is a big prize worth fighting for, and watch out, world! How about your boss's job? Set your goals in September. Get more money in October. Study tactics in November, and discover the truth in December. Rattle a few cages in February, and pay back old debts in April. By June you should be ready to take on new responsibilities. This leads to a new opportunity by next August. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day. O the most challenging. Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 5. The details are important, especially when you are caring for other people. Put your needs aside for a while. Whatever others require is more important now. You'll have more time for what you originally wanted to do later. Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is an 8. Conditions are excellent for love but not too great for money. You and somebody you care about could argue about money. If the other person has a good argument, be persuaded. Get good reasons and maybe a payback commitment. Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 5. Your home is probably full of family, which should be fun; however, somebody you know and love only wants to do things the same old way. Argue your position, and you may cause a few cracks in that stone wall before morning. Cancer (June 22-July 22), Today is an 8. You're always pretty smart, but today you almost have a photographic memory, so use it. Read up on a topic that will help in the future. Don't waste this rare phenomenon on fluff, study the facts and figures Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 5. You might balance your checkbook down to the las penny.

Then you won't have to do everything by yourself anymore. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Today is a 4. You may be a little worried. If you have some time to think, you should figure it out. The problem may be that you have to do something again. That's the only way it will be excellent, instead of just good enough. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Today is an 8. If you play by the rules today, your team could win the big prize. You'll put on the best performance or have the best presentation. Sometimes people lose the game on a technicality. Today, having the details down pat will give you the winning edge. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 5. Although you're a freewheelering spirit, that's not a good image to project. Instead, be neat, clean and wrinkle-free. Spit-polish those boots and snap to attention. The impression you leave now could make a big difference later. --- Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 9. You're in the mood to try something different. Could you get a job that would be more fun if you had more education? Of course you could. That's a no-brainer. Your supplies of brains and imagination are excellent now, so use them. 2 Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 5. Your investment could grow through the addition of somebody else's contribution.

Take notes. This may not be much fun, especially if your instructor is using a nagging, critical tone. You might learn something you can use, however.

K-State coach Bill Snyder said on Sunday that the bone was not broken and that Allen's ankle C was in a cast for "precautionary measures." Allen was injured Saturday as No. 8 Kansas State defeated Iowa, 27-7, in the Eddie Robinson Classic in Kansas City, Mo. He was tackled while returning a punt in the second half and was helped off the field. Earlier in the game, an illegal block call nullified an 86-yard punt return for a touchdown that would have been the eighth of Alien's career, an NCAA record. Allen also rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. He started the season 172 yards shy of breaking the NCAA record for punt return yardage.

Miami player impatient; wants to switch teams NBA LAHAINA, Hawaii — Upset at being the only unsigned Olympian and growing more impatient, Tim Hardaway now says there's a 50-50 chance he'll leave the Miami Heat and play elsewhere next season. The Indiana Pacers wasted no time MIAMI HEAT yesterday seeing if Hardaway was bluffing, placing a call to his agent. Hardaway, an unrestricted free agent, is seeking a three-year contract from the Heat. But he says he will consider signing a one-year deal with Indiana for the mid-level salary cap exception of $2.5 million. The Heat can pay him much more, but Miami president Pat Riley and Hardaway's agent, Henry Thomas, have made little progress toward an agreement. With three months having passed since the Heat was eliminated from the playoffs, Hardaway has lost his patience. Donnie Walsh, president of the Pacers, placed a call to Thomas after hearing of Hardaway's dissatisfaction. Indiana plans to move Jalen Rose to the point-guard position after losing Mark Jackson to Toronto on the free-agent market, but the opportunity to sign Hardaway could alter those plans Hardaway also said he would consider signing with the Chicago Bulls, who have enough cap room to outbid the Pacers. Hardaway is from Chicago and played for Bulls coach Tim Floyd at Texas-EL Paso. OLYMPICS Committee approves drua testing for EPO OLYMPIC GAMES ing program in Olympic history won final approval yester day. LAUSANNE, Switzerland — The centerpiece of the biggest anti-dop Olympic Games OLYMPIC GAMES The International Olympic Committee approved tests for the banned drug erythropoietin, or EPO, to be conducted at the Sydney Games next month. The move is considered a breakthrough in the fight against one of the most powerful and abused performance enhancers in sports. A combined urine and blood test for EPO was backed earlier this month by the IOC medical commission and outside scientific experts. But final authorization was required by the IOC's legal commission and executive board. 10C medical commission chairman Prince Alexandre de Merode said at least 400 EPO tests would be conducted from Sept.2, the day the athletes' village opens in Sydney, until the close of the games on Sunday, Oct.1. A total of 3,200 drug tests — including 2,000 standard in-competition urine tests and 400 out-of-competition controls — will be carried out before and during the games, the IOC said. Urine samples taken as part of the EPO procedure also will be used to test for substances such as anabolic steroids. Also yesterday, the IOC's executive board trimmed a preliminary field of 10 candidates for the 2008 Summer Games to five finalists — front-runner Beijing; Paris; Toronto; Osaka, Japan; and Istanbul, Turkey. The 2008 host city will be chosen by the IOC at its session in Moscow in July 2001.

LUCKY, WITH THE WHOLE INTERNET, I'M SURE WE CAN FIND YOU A GLIY! I'VE TRIED, HELEN! AH, REMEMBER... "DO OR DO NOT! THERE IS NO TRY!" SO HE'S GONNA LOOK LIKE YODA? I DIDN'T SAY THAT! Jayhawk Bookstore Your academic developing & film source at the top of Naismith Hill 1420 Crescent Road843-3826 AH, REMEMBER... "DO OR DO NOT! THERE IS NO TRY!" B A girl smiles. A minor surprise is the reissue of "Lennon Remembers," Lennon's famously bitter, marathon interview with Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner, given just as the group was breaking up. Lennon had agreed to the interview on the condition that Wenner not put it out in book form. When he did so anyway, Lennon was enraged and spoke bitterly about Wenner right until the end of his life. But the publication arrives with the approval of Ono, who contributed a forward. Material originally edited out has been restored and some lyrics never recorded will be included. In addition to the Beatles, books about the Clintons and the upcoming presidential election will abound in stores this fall. "I remember being at the booksellers convention a couple of years ago and Linda McCartney was there to promote one of her vegetarian cookbooks," said Constance Sayre, director of Marketing Partners International, a publishing consultant. GO HES GONNA LOOK LIKE YODA? I DIDN'T SAY THAT! The publisher gave a party and you should have seen the lineup of people to shake Sir Paul's hand. You've never seen such a crowd. The Beatles are certainly a big deal with booksellers." "The Beatles Anthology," an oral history assembled by the three surviving Beatles and Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono, has advance orders of more than 1 million and will be published in at least eight languages. NEW YORK — Thirty years after their breakup, and 20 years after the death of John Lennon, it's time yet again to meet the Beatles. At least nine titles related to the Beatles are expected this fall, from the authorized "The Beatles Anthology" to a biography of their late manager, Brian Epstein. Other books include an illustrated volume of Paul McCartney's paintings, a reissue of Lennon's collection of verse, "In His Own Write," and a look at the Beatles' time in India with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. While a generation has been born and raised since the Beatles were together, the band remains a major moneymaker and cultural presence. The band's albums sold more than 50 million copies worldwide during the past decade. Dozens of Beatles fan clubs still exist, from Australia to Russia to Brazil. Fall brings crop of Beatles books The Associated Press This time in bookstores.

The Associated Press School officials said the two fatalities took place in a second-floor faculty office in Kimpel Hall. "We believe the two persons killed are a faculty member and a graduate student, but that remains to be confirmed," said Chancellor John White in a statement. The statement did not indicate what department the victims were believed to be from, but that section of the building houses offices for the English department. Students and faculty were evacuated from the building after the shooting around 12:20 p.m. "We're trying to deal with a situation that seems horrific and trying to control everything we can and bring this to resolution as quickly as possible," said university representative Roger Williams. Journalism department chairwoman Patsy Watkins said many of Kimpel Hall is shaped like a T, with classrooms along the long end of the T and offices across the crossbar. The building houses faculty in a number of departments communication, drama, English foreign languages and journalism, Williams said. "We're trying to deal with a situation that seems horrific and trying to control everything we can and bring this to resolution as quickly as possible." the 50- to 60-student classrooms on the floor would have been filled at the time. Students left the building in an orderly fashion, saying they had been told to leave, Watkins said. "All we've been told is that shots have been fired," Watkins said.

MASON WWW.KANSAN.COM No relief in sight for heat wave By Lauren Brandenburg writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer With yesterday's high at 96 degrees, a representative for the National Weather Service joked that there must be a cold spell going through Lawrence. But the National Weather Service said the heat index remained in the triple digits — at 105 degrees — because the humidity was hovering around 50 percent. And the higher the humidity, the higher the heat index, said Don Rogers, meteorologist for the National Weather Service. Even after today's heat break, Randall Rock, chief of staff for Watkins Memorial Health Center, encouraged students to drink plenty of water. "This week has been extremely difficult for individuals to stay adequately hydrated." Rock said. Students continue to go to Watkins this week with heat-related problems, he said, and some have required intravenous fluid drips to get rehydrated. Michelle Lauerman, Lenexa sophomore, said she carried a water bottle around with her to make sure she did not become dehydrated. Lauerman said she walks up the hill on 14th Street More information Provost David Shulenburger issued restrictions on University water usage.

Although the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical Department responded to grass fires on campus Monday, a battalion chief reported that there were no heat-related fire or medical emergencies at the University of Kansas yesterday. The National Weather Service predicts no relief for the rest of the week, with today and tomorrow hot and sunny with highs between 100 and 105 degrees. For the weekend, the National Weather Service predicts "dry and unseasonably hot daytime temperatures," with highs between 95 and 103 degrees. "People should take temporary permission to be couch potatoes," Rock said. "Or at least to avoid exercising in direct sunlight with the heat." — Edited by John Audlehelm Students sweat out warm weather woes The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN By Melissa Davis writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Nora Wood's roommate came home Sunday to find her passed out on the floor of their apartment in Jayhawker Towers. Wood, San Luis Obispo, Calif., junior, said she had fainted from heat exhaustion because her air conditioner was broken. She said she had got up to answer her phone and then blacked out. "I was sitting on the couch when I heard the phone ring. I got up to answer it, and that's the last thing I remember," she said. Wood said that since June 4 — when she moved in — the air conditioner in her apartment had gone out five times, sometimes at the hottest part of the day. "This time, the air has been broken since Tuesday," she said. "They told us that the air was to be working 100 percent, but it hasn't, and I haven't slept two nights in a row because it is so hot." Wood said she thought the housing department was neglecting the welfare of students. "The housing department is giving me the run-around," she said. "She nobody wants to accept responsibility for this. This is like a big slap in the face. They don't care about our welfare." She said that it had been a week since she complained about the problem and that maintenance still had not been to her apartment. "This doesn't happen off campus because they know they wouldn't get away with it." Wood said. Phil Garito, associate director for housing maintenance, said the housing department was working to solve the air-conditioning problem. "the air conditioners in the towers are at maximum capacity," he said. "They were not designed for 100 plus-degree weather." Garito said he had been informed that the air conditioners needed to be updated but that it would be a tricky procedure. "The downside to replacing all the air conditioners would be shutting down all See SCORCHING on page 6A Engine fire destroys car in new parking garage By Karen Lucas Kansan staff writer One car was destroyed and another damaged in a fire late yesterday morning in the new parking garage next to the Kansas Union. No damage estimates were available for the fire, which apparently started in the engine compartment of a car parked in the garage at 10:38 a.m., said Sgt. Troy Mallen of the KU Public Safety Office. There were no injuries and a preliminary investigation indicated that the fire likely was accidental. Mailen said the More information Unextinguished cigarette butts have sparked six small fires on campus.

"Someone said a red Blazer was parked next to the car on fire, and it was my car," she said. "I honestly couldn't do anything but laugh. I just had my whole brake system fixed two days ago, so it's just sort of ironic." Emily Derusseau, Lawrence senior and owner of the sports utility vehicle, said she saw fire coming out of the parking garage when she arrived there. A sports utility vehicle parked next to the car on fire sustained heat damage and had to be towed. "I was flagged down on the street and told there was a car smoking on the lower level of the parking garage," he said. Mike Norris, student parking officer, said he was working in the parking booth near the Union when the fire broke out. Norris said he then drove into the garage, and as he was entering the lower level, he saw the fire. Several other vehicles had minor smoke damage. Mailen said. Firefighters enter the recently completed parking garage near Memorial Stadium. The car fire yesterday destroyed one car and damaged another.

Motorists had to use the Oread Avenue entrance because the first level was inaccessible. "The flames were clearly visible from my position, and the entire lower level was full of smoke," Norris said. Mailen said the entrance would remain closed until investigators could assess the structure and clean up. It would be at least this morning before first-level parking would be available, he said. — Edited by J.R. Mendoza City plans to limit student housing By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Staff writer Oit-campus student housing could be limited under a proposed change to city housing ordinances. The proposal would reduce the number of unrelated people who could live in single-family homes in single-family neighborhoods from four to two. Affected areas include East Lawrence and the Centennial and Pinckney elementary school neighborhoods, 2145 Louisiana and 810 W. 6th St. respectively. "We find it a problem that the Properties rented to unrelated people — students or otherwise are causing a variety of problems such as party houses, displacement of families and declining enrollment at citycenter elementary schools, said Lawrence resident Arly Allen, who is leading the proposal. Allen said he thought students should not live in single-family homes or neighborhoods. We find it University has abdicated its role in providing housing," Allen said. "The bulk of students are forced to find City Commission their own accommodations wherever they can. And the behavior pattern of teen- to 24-year-olds is different from the behavior pattern of their parents." Groups of students can afford to pay more for housing than families can, Allen said, displacing families to areas such as West Lawrence. Fewer families means fewer children at center-city schools, which could result in school closings. Holly Krebs, chairwoman of the Student Senate student rights committee, said the proposal was unfair to students and the links between students to the problems mentioned were tenuous. "Students are not the only ones who have unusual life schedules," Krebs said. "There is a huge expansion of West Lawrence and Southeast Lawrence where the homes have bigger yards, newer schools and less traffic. There are tons of reasons why families are leaving the city center." Krebs said not all students were disruptive and that the new disorderly house ordinance should be given time to take effect to see if problems diminish in neighborhoods. Other cities such as Lincoln, Neb., Stillwater, Okla, Columbia, Mo., and Ames, Iowa — all hometowns of Big 12 universities — already have ordinances limiting unrelated people in single-family homes to two or three persons, said David Corliss, assistant city manager. "Courts have given city commissions and city councils room to establish their own regulations." Corliss said. Allen said the proposed ordinance change was not aimed at students and that two unrelated people could still rent homes in single-family neighborhoods. "When you have two students or two people in a home they don't behave like a group," Allen said. "The behavior is more like a single family." The draft ordinance will be presented to the Lawrence City Commission Tuesday. - Edited by Clay McCusistion 2A The Inside Front Wednesday August 30,2000 News from campus, the state, the nation and the world LAWRENCE CAMPUS Lottery for garage spots might not be necessary Student spaces still are available in the new east parking-garage at 1261 Oread Ave., north of the Kansas Union The KU Parking Department made 200 spaces available to students, who would be granted a permit if chosen via a lottery on Friday. Because only 100 applications had come in by yesterday, a lottery may not take place, said Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking. The students who have applied will receive their permits Tuesday. The rest of the permits will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. If the garage fills, remaining students will be placed on a waiting list. Cigarettes cause fires near campus buildings Six small fires on campus were reported between Aug. 21 and Monday on campus because of smokers' carelessness. Four fires at Strong Hall, one between the Dole Human Development Center and Haworth Hall, and one at Twente Hall have been attributed to cigarette butts being tossed into mulch or dry shrubs, said Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office. He urged smokers to be more careful when disposing cigarettes in the hot, dry conditions. Football fans can park at new east parking garage "It's extremely hot, and the grass and mulch are extremely dry and susceptible to fire," Mailen said. "We're asking people to be very cautious with these conditions." Jayhawk football fans will be able to park in the new east parking garage at 1261 Oread Ave. on game days, said Donna Hultine of the KU Parking Department. The new garage, with 818 spaces, is located near Memorial Stadium with entrances at Oread Avenue on the east side and Mississippi Street on the west side. Visitor parking will cost $10 on Saturday game days, which are scheduled for Sept. 16 and 23; Oct. 7, 21 and Nov. 11. Hultine said that regular permits for the garage would be honored on game days. - Rob Pazell Student awarded $7,500 to study highway system A KU doctoral student has won a $7,500 Dwight Eisenhower/Clifford Roberts fellowship to study the cultural history of the highway system. John Seiler of Louisville, Ky., is writing his dissertation on how the Cold War environment of the 1950s gave rise to the Interstate highway system created by President Dwight Eisenhower's administration. Eisenhower envisioned the system as a key to national security that would make it easier to move troops around the country. But Seiler said the interstate also represented deeply-rooted American values. Mobility and the freedom of the open road were values that distinguished America from its Cold War enemies, and those values persist today. Seiler said. "People are now talking about the information highwayusing a lot of the same rhetoric as they did for the Interstate system," he said. Seiler is one of four recipients of the fellowship nationwide. "I think we will learn a lot about the way the nation thought and what defined the nation," said Barry Shank, associate professor of American studies and Seiler's dissertation director. Professor receives grant to research materials' use A KU assistant professor in engineering has been awarded $200,000 to research the use of composite materials in civil structures. The National Science Foundation will finance the research of Guillermo Ramirez, who specializes in civil and environmental engineering. Ramirez will work to better understand how pressurized composite materials respond under impact. Composite materials offer an alternative to structural steel in some civil engineering projects, including bridges. They are made up of resins and fibers — often carbon, graphite or fiberglass. "This results in lighter structures," Ramirez said, "so composites are excellent to use in offshore platforms, where their tolerance to environmental damage is greater than that of steel." Remirez also is working to develop tools that students can access through the Internet to perform virtual testing of structures made with composite materials. The foundation's financing for the project will be spread across the next four years. The Kansas Department of Transportation has installed three experimental bridge decks that use composites and is studying their long-term behavior, Ramirez said.

The fire broke out at 10:45 p.m. Monday in the 3400 block of West 24th Street. Jerry Little, Douglas County assistant district attorney, and his three family members made it out of the house safely. "We believe that it started on the exterior of the building," Barr said. He said the damage was listed at $125,000. Battalion Chief Jerry Karr said it took the fire department 40 to 45 minutes to gain control of the fire. — Lauren Brandenburg Repetition policy to be modified By Karen Lucas writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Proposed changes to the course repetition policy for undergraduates have run into a stumbling block. After discussing a memorandum from Provost David Shulenburger, in which he expressed reservations about the changes, members of the University Senate Executive Committee voted yesterday to modify the policy. Chancellor Robert Hemenway, in his own memorandum, said he agreed with Shulenburger. SenEx oversees policy at the University of Kansas between sessions of University Council. The changes, which were approved last spring by University Council, would permit students receiving a D or F to repeat a course and have only the second grade entered into their grade point averages. This option would apply to as many as five courses per student. Students, however, could not repeat courses in which they had committed academic misconduct. In his memorandum, Shulenburger said the revised policy would be hard to carry out because there were not records of all cases of academic misconduct. He also said the policy changes would cost the University more. "In general, it wasn't something we felt we could implement fairly," Shulenburger said. Erin Simpson, member of SenEx, said that although she agreed with the provost's position, she thought the proposal could become feasible if his concerns were taken into consideration. Ben Walker, student body president and SenEx member, expressed a mixed opinion about the provost's response to the proposal. "I'm just disappointed that the policy wasn't accepted," he said. "But I think we can come up with something new this year to satisfy the provost's concerns." SenEx also approved a new ad hoc committee that would look at how parking is dealt with on campus. Members of the committee will be appointed at the next meeting of SenEx on Tuesday. - Edited by Kathryn Moore ON THE RECORD A vehicle hit another parked vehicle at 5:20 p.m. Monday in the west Jayhawker Towers parking lot, the KU Public Safety Office said. A KU student's dinner was lost or stolen at 10:55 a.m. Friday in the Gertrude Sellade Pearson-Corbin Hall cafeteria, the KU Public Safety Office said. The purse and its contents were valued at $200.

Wednesday, August 30, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section A·Page 3 CEAR UNIVERSITY Lawrence resident John Long performs his nightly ritual of walking his dog Bailey around campus. LDOGS, the Lawrence Dogs and Owners Green Space organization, is lobbying for an off-leash area at city parks so dogs such as Bailey can run free. Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN City to mull dog park plan Dog owners want free space for pets By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansas staff writer Lawrence dogs could be released from their chains if a released iron proposed offleash area is built in the city. A group of dog owners, the Lawrence Dogs and Owners Green S p a c e (LDOGS), will LAWRENCE DOGS & OWNERS GREEN SPACE LDOGS present its recommendation for an area where dogs could play without leashes to the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department in a week or two. "We're trying to get an idea of what's already out there and where the city would have to do the least work possible," said Stephanie Smith, LDOGS representative. Smith said the organization formed from a group of dog owners that had used Potter Lake as an off-leash area, but they stopped when the lake was contaminated by an oil spill and campus security began enforcing the Lawrence leash law. She said that walkers at Potter Lake routinely conversed about raising dogs and that she'd like to see the camaraderie of that area transferred to another park. "An offleash area would make people more aware of what it takes to be responsible dog owners," Smith said. "It would also be an easy way a lot of elderly and handicapped people could exercise their dogs." senior, got her first dog on Aug. 15 and said she would use an offleash area. Kristina Haynie, Omaha, Neb. "I think it would be great because it'd be a good place to take my dog, a safe area," Haynie said. "I think students would go for it." After the group gives its recommendations to the parks and recreation department, the city will decide if the idea is feasible and the money is available to create a park, said Fred DeVictor, director of the parks and recreation department. He said it also could reduce the frequent complaints about dog sanitation. "We see some benefits that if more owners take their dogs to that area, the spin-off might help us with sanitation and that sort of thing," DeVictor said. "We see this as a positive for the overall parks system." Edited by J. R. Mendoza KIEF'S Audio/Video 24th St in Iowa, Lawrence, KS 842-1011 Big Sale Now! TV &DVDs KIEF'S Audio/Video Big Sale Now!

But the new regulations are more likely to strain the relationship between students and the city than achieve their intended effect of stopping students from partying. On June 20, the Lawrence City Commission amended its Disorderly House Nuisance Ordinance that allow the city to shut off the utilities at houses it deems disorderly and require that the tenants be evicted from the premises. The city defines a disorderly house as property on which city and state alcohol laws or noise laws are violated or any felony or misdemeanor arises two or more times within a 365-day period. These violations may be committed by the tenants of the property or by any person attending events sponsored by the owner. This basically places more blame on the person or persons throwing the party at the disorderly house. The tenants and owners of such houses are required to meet with the city commission in order to make an agreement to end the nuisance. The agreement may require the tenants to move from the premises. If the tenants and owner fail to meet with the commission, the city can prosecute the tenants and owner. The penalties imposed by the city for violating its ordinance include fines and up to one year of probation. Although this new ordinance may seem appeal to families who choose to move into mainly student-occupied areas, it is not necessary for the city to increase its watch over student parties. There are already laws that deal with issues such as excessive noise and serving alcohol to minors. These additions to the existing laws are just another way for Lawrence to play Big Brother and keep an increasingly watchful eye over everything. If families choose to move into the area of Tennessee, Ohio and Kentucky streets between 9th and 15th streets, they should realize that this area is zoned by the city for student off-campus living. Most of the houses in that area have been converted into apartment-style living for students. Knowing this, these families should not be surprised that the area may be a little louder late into the night than other outlying areas of the city. Beyond this fact, the idea that the commission gives multiple chances to tenants and owners before a residence is deemed a nuisance shows that apparently this issue is not as important as it might like the students to think. Although the city commission may have good inten- The punishments for violating these laws are not very strict and may not stop people from breaking them, and they will definitely not stop students from partying. It is true that measures must be taken to control certain people who continually violate laws and are not respecting those around them. There are already laws in place that do this, and the addition of these new regulations will only City of Lawrence: Complaints spark change in law cause more conflict between students and the city. New rules will curb irresponsible behavior Responding to neighborhood and public safety concerns, the Lawrence City Commission in June adopted an ordinance defining and regulating disorderly house nuisances. Commissioners and citizens expressed concern about ongoing activities at specific The ordinance, patterned after a similar one in fellow university town Manhattan, is a response to house party problems in the community. Tsk Tsk... Lawrence Illustration by Clay McCuistion Katie Hackett for the editorial board sance can take place inside or outside on a particular property. Occupants, including tenants and their guests, and owners can be cited. The focus is on habitual disorderly conduct at private homes or rental properties. Owners, occupants and their guests are subject to possible prosecution when a property is the site of repeated crimes or code violations, a combination of two or more felonies or misdemeanors, alcohol or other city code violations within 12 months. City legal officials will determine whether a property is a habitual nuisance. Suspected property owners and occupants will be required to attend a nuisance abatement conference with city staff. The two parties will discuss the facts and attempt to agree and produce a written action plan, including deadlines, to remedy the situation. Nuisance abatement agreements, which can be amended if both parties agree, extend two years from the date of the original plan. Abatement plan agreements may include tenant eviction, written notification to individuals who are prohibited from entering the property, written leases requiring eviction for criminal activity, property improvements such as fencing, security devices and lighting, and other conditions. Suspected owners and occupants have two days to review abatement agreements, sign the documents and return them to the city. Prosecution is an option for individuals who do not respond to the agreement process. Violators include those who do not attend an abatement conference, fail or refuse to sign or comply with the agreement. With reliable information that the property remains a disorderly house nuisance, the city could evict the owner or occupant, file criminal proceedings against the owner or declare the property uninhabitable and terminate utility service. The ordinance also allows for additional penalties for those found guilty. Under a one-year probationary period, property owners or occupants may be required to make property improvements to lessen criminal activity, use written leases that require eviction for criminal activity, submit tenant lists to the police department, post cash bonds, and meet other reasonable conditions. Property owners and tenants with comments or questions should contact Dave Corliss, assistant city manager and director of legal services, 832-3403, city hall, docrillor@c1.lawrence.ks.us. Gayle Martin for the city of Lawrence Subtle stereotypes creep into Kansan coverage Stereotypes pop up in unsuspecting places. While some can be dangerous, others are just befuddling, like the stereotype I encountered last week when I was told I didn't look like a journalist. Ironically, the stereotype couldn't tell "Diversity" and "stereotypes" are words that get thrown around a lot these days. Even though the words tend to lose their meaning as many Americans grow weary of "political correctness," the fact of the matter is they are important. me what exactly a journalist looked like, though. POLICE Our story about the party at the Burge Union sparked some controversy, partially because of the picture that ran with the article. The photo showed an African-American student being swiped with a metal detector as part of increased security at Burge since a shooting last year. Although pictures don't lie, they don't tell the whole truth, either. I don't think anyone will dispute the fact that students at the party were being checked for Erinn R. Barcomb readers' representative readeruser@hanan.suan.com weapons at the door. The story confirmed this. Out of context from the story, however, the picture could misrepresent African-American students — implying in some way that African-American students are more prone to carrying weapons into parties. As readers, I encourage you to look at what you see with a critical eye. Piece together the photos, stories and captions before making assumptions about what you see — or think you see. As journalists, we need to be more selective of the images we use, recognizing that not everyone is going to take in all the information on the page at once. Along the same lines, last week, a column in the Kansan addressed the perception that liberal tendencies prevail at public universities. One student reminded me several days later that not all university students, and not all students at this university, have a liberal political sway. Even though the University is home to organizations such as College Republicans and the more extreme Vietnam Veterans for Academic Reform, which criticizes liberal tendencies at the University, the image of the tie-dyed, longhaired 1960s university protester won't die. In a way, the ideals of that image persist on the Hill through groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union and Delta Force. And I think most would agree that in largely-conservative Kansas, Lawrence and the University are islands of a more left-wing outlook. I've been reading a book about stereotypes that prevail in the media. One essay states that in journalism, laziness and stereotypical thinking go together. Travis Linn writes, "The more questions asked, the more observations made, the more concrete and particular the reporter's notes, then the more the journalist is focusing on a person, a family, or an incident, rather than taking a face and a name and plugging those into a set of assumptions." But too often those are the only images projected by those outside the University, and sometimes those at the University as well. So if we make incorrect assumptions or present misleading images about your views, attitudes and lifestyles as students, call us on it.

Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN Directors promote diversity By Leita Schultes writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer A new semester has brought two new resources for multicultural students at the University of Kansas: Santos Nunez and Angela Nwachukwu. Nunez came from Iowa State University in June of 2000 and is assistant director for Multicultural Affairs and coordinator of the Multicultural Resource Center. Nwachukwu, who moved to Lawrence a month ago from Canisius College in Buffalo, N.Y., is interim assistant director at the Office of Multicultural Affairs. The two women brought new diversity programs for students. One of Nunez's goals is to focus on the diversity, rather than just the ethnicity, of campus. 1920-1986 Nunez oversees traditional diversity programs, such as Students "Diversity is not necessarily what your ethnicity is," she said. "It's also what your beliefs are, where you grew up, your socioeconomic background. I want to emphasize that all students are welcome here." Together Excelling in Education as Peers and The Diversity Peer Education Team. Nwachukwu: Aims to familiarize more students with KU But Nunez said she planned to create new programs addressing diversity of religious beliefs, sexual orientation and disabilities. She said that a possible program included a Muslim woman speaking about the functions of the hijab, or veil, which some Muslim women wear. "That's something different than having a speaker come in and talk about Black and White awareness in America." she said. Nwachukwu said the diversity of people in the MRC allows the OMA to focus more on helping students find both their places in, and ways around, the University. One of the programs used to accomplish such goals is Training Interpersonal and Professional Skills. The program is new this year, Nwachukwu said, and teaches students to be leaders, run organizations and eventually apply leadership skills off of campus. An offshoot of TPPS is Presidents Caucus, which will have its first meeting tomorrow and will meet monthly. Nwachukwu said the caucus is a discussion forum for leaders of minority organizations. "We come together and ask, what are you guys doing?" Nwachukwu said. "What do you guys need?" The final program Nwachukwu oversees is HAWKLink, a recruitment and retention program for students of color. Nwachukwu said the program helps students orient themselves to KU by working with other campus offices. "We've found that students who are involved in HAWKLink are more successful than those who aren't." Nwachukwu said. "It links the students with already existing programs." Nwachukuw advises incoming freshman that getting linked is crucial for student success. "Get involved," she said. "That's the only way you're going to fully appreciate and attain the best educational experience here at KU." KIEF'S Audio/Video 24th & Iowa, Lawrence, KS. 842-1438 Big Sale Now!

GOODCENTS • EXPIRES 9/30/2000 Three steps to a 4.0 GPA By Laita Schultes writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Almost 200 students at Alderson Auditorium learned how to get 4.0s last night. Donna O. Johnson, founder and president of the Guaranteed 4.0 Learning System, said more than 60 percent of those students in attendance would improve their grades. She said follow-up workshops resulted in 90 percent of students improving their GPAs, by the program's third appearance, the statistic was up to nearly 99 percent. The 12-year-old program also gives $100 to students who do not earn a 4.0 after going through its three steps. "If you want to get As,you need to go to class," Johnson said of the first step. She said not going to class was like paying for food at a restaurant and then not eating. Johnson said students should sit in the front row so they are distracted less and get to know their teachers more. The second goal for students should be to know their professors — they are regular people and could be both friends and the keys to a good education, Johnson said. The third step was keeping up with class. "Do what you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do it," Johnson said. "You're going to read the material at least 24 hours before you go to class." Richard, Stephens, Sterling freshman, said curiosity and a willingness to be challenged brought him to the seminar. He said he was not as skeptical of the program as he was its users. He said he was skeptical that students could actually follow the strict regimen required by the program. But students such as Deirdre Garry, Kansas City, Mo., junior, planned to do just that. She said she would make an honest effort to bring her grades up. An honest effort was all Johnson asked. "Whatever you do, do it 100 percent," she said. The seminar was sponsored by HAWKLink, a retention program for minority students, as part of Hawk Week. — Edited by John Audlehelm WATER RESTRICTIONS As the triple-digit heat wave continues in Lawrence, Provost David Shulenburger has announced steps to conserve water at the University of Kansas. This week, the city asked major users of water to voluntarily reduce their water-use rates. In response to this request, Shulenburger said water conservation was necessary. He sent out a memo yesterday asking that the following steps be taken at the University to help relieve the strain on the city's water supply, purification, distribution and treatment facilities. Until further notice, the following steps are being taken; 1. Water to various fountains on campus will be shut down by Facilities Operations. These include Chi Omega, Murphy Hall, scholarship halls and Continuing Education fountains. 2. Lawn sprinklers will be shut off at the Pioneer Cemetery, Youngberg Hall, Watkins Memorial Health Center, Campanile hill and Anschutz Science Library. 3. Flower beds will stop being watered with the hope that the perennials might go dormant and survive. 4. The Department of Athletics will reduce water consumption where possible, without sacrificing the safety of student athletes as they practice and compete on the athletic fields. 5. Student housing and the Alumni Center have discontinued watering lawns and shrubbery with the exception of the new plantings. 6. Plantings at the parking garage near Allen Fieldhouse will not be watered. 7. Motor pool will reduce the washing of University vehicles, and Facilities Operations trucks and equipment will not be washed. 8. All residents in student housing are asked to report water leaks in sinks, showers and baths; turn off water while brushing teeth, shaving or shampooing; and wash only full loads in the washing machines. 9. Unit heads are being requested to turn off water faucets, both hot and cold, and to report all leaks directly to Facilities Operations at 864-4770. 10. Faculty and staff using equipment requiring water for cooling should strive to use the minimum amount of water required and should cut the water supply off when not in use.

Wednesday, August 30, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section A • Page 7 Nation For comments, contact Lori O'Toole at 864-4810 or e-mail editor@kansan.com Murder-suicide still a mystery The Associated Press FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Police said Tuesday they are still uncertain who shot whom in an apparent murder-suicide at the University of Arkansas Monday involving an English professor and a graduate student who was recently dropped from a doctoral program. Both died in the shooting. English professor John Locke, 67, and James Easton Kelly, 36, were found dead Monday in Locke's office. People nearby said they heard the men arguing before three shots were fired. University police Capt. Brad Bruns said a 38-caliber revolver, which belonged to Kelly, was found between the men. "We don't want to say it was one way and it turn out to be a different way. With the location of the gun and the two bodies, it was not obvious at the scene," said university police Lt. Gary Crain. Bruns said four empty shell casings were found in the gun, which Kelly bought at a pawn shop five years ago. Kelly was dismissed from the doctoral program Aug. 21 because he habitually enrolled in and then dropped classes. The university said a committee of six professors voted to drop Kelly from the program. Locke was on the committee but abstained from the vote. The committee allowed Kelly to continue his studies as a non-degree student. Kelly had scheduled a meeting with Locke, his adviser, who was reluctant to meet the student in private. Bruns said police had a brief conversation with one of the men before the final shot was fired. The man told him he was injured and that he did not want them to enter the office, Bruns said. Bruns said a police negotiator never got a chance to talk with anyone in the second-floor office. "I heard one gunshot followed by a man's voice saying, 'No, I didn't do anything,'" said Bethany Edstrom, a graduate student who was in a nearby office. "Then I heard a second shot." Student Drew Terry said he was sitting with friends outside Kimpel Hall, a classroom and office building near the heart of the 15,000-student campus, when people fled from the building around noon. "People were scattering everywhere. The whole area was full of people running around out here," he said. Chancellor John White said Locke enrolled as a doctoral student in the university's English program in 1990 and later switched to comparative literature. "All of us at the university are all deeply upset," White said. Locke was interested in oriental mythology and religions and studied Zen Buddhism, said James Whitehead, professor emeritus of creative writing. Whitehead and others said Locke's death was unfathomable. "It's as if he was walking to school on a cloudless day and got struck by lightning." Whitehead said. In a statement, President Clinton said the situation struck a particularly sad cord for first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton and him, who both taught law at the university in the mid-1970s. *The American Institute of Engineers Red Lyon Tavern COMMUNITY MERCYTILE CO-OP Lawrence's Friendly Full Service Natural Foods Grocery THE MERC! 944 Mass.832-8228 IMPRESS YOUR PARENTS BECOME A LAWRENCE BUSINESS OWNER!

Rice has found many outlets for involvement at the University of Kansas from acting in plays to performing in drag shows. Portrait by Jamie Roper/KANSAN Xavier Rice, superstar Student finds bounty of opportunities in Lawrence as singer, actor, RA and drag queen By Derek Prater Kansan senior staff writer avier Rice can barely keep still when he talks. Xavier Rice can barely keep still when he talks. His hands spiral and gesticulate for emphasis. His face beams ebullently as he sinks his teeth into a subject. He feels compelled, he said, to perform. And sometimes, he just can't contain himself. "If you've driven around Lawrence and you've seen this Black guy dancing and singing on the street with nobody around, that's me," said Rice. Roeland Park senior. Rice, a vocal music and theater and film major, says that ever since he was in West Side Story in high school, performing has been in his blood. Somewhat to his surprise, the University of Kansas has provided Rice with a bounty of opportunities, roles and experiences both on the stage and off. He has worked with renowned performers and directors; he has performed in shows ranging from opera to You're a Good Man Charlie Brown (as Snoopy); and he has performed in roles on campus ranging from a resident assistant at Oliver Hall to a drag queen at the KU Queers & Allies' Brown Bag Lunch Drag Show. "The range of talents that he has is amazing," said Kim Fuchs, a Merriam senior who has known Rice since they both attended middle school. "He has so much energy, especially when he drags." A Little Pearl in Lawrence Rice said that back in high school, he didn't know much about KU. And he didn't think that it would be a place where he would flourish as a performer. "It's in the middle of Kansas, so just by saying that you don't neces sarily say much, even though I was raised in Kansas," Rice said. "But KU is just this little pearl, I have found. I have had an opportunity to work with, at all levels—theater, music, my studies—some of the most intelligent, popular professors." "I was like, 'I want to be a performer. I want to go to New York. I'm not staving in Kansas,'" he said. But the cost of living in New York outweighed the benefits, and Rice decided on Lawrence. Maribeth Crawford, associate professor of music and dance, has worked closely with Rice in his vocal studies and said he had benefited from the depth of instruction available at the University. "He has a real respect for the art," Crawford said. "I think he has serious intentions and respect for what it takes to be a professional performer." Rice, she said, may be playful, charming and carefree, but he is also very serious about performing and has many gifts. The Awful Truth Rice also is getting some unique opportunities and the kind of exposure that could help his career. Last year, he worked with two nationally known artists: transgendered actor, novelist, playwright and activist Kate Bornstein and political activist and filmmaker Michael Moore. Bornstein worked with the cast when the University Theatre put on a production of her play *Hidden: A Gender* last April. Later that year, Rice answered a casting call to appear in an episode of Moore's television show The Awful Truth on the Bravo network. Rice and three other KU students, along with area gay men, traveled around Topeka in the Sodomobile, a pink RV, making stops at the Fred Phelps compound, the Capitol site and other spots. Rice said that the group, which was outfitted in stereotypically homosexual garb, sang along with Phelps' group and got them to do a chorus line dance. "You can get them to do really dumb stuff easily, and that's what we did." Rice said. The point, he said, was to find hateful, bigoted people and undermine their message with humor. mingle their message with each other. As for driving around in the big, pink Sodomobile, "I crown that as one of the things that I will look back at when I'm 30 and laugh at," Rice said. To some extent, Rice's love for performing stems from his gregarious nature. Never a Stranger "He was alway an outgoing individual," said his mother, Ann. "There was never a stranger." "I have a real desire to perform," he said. "I love to be in front of people and I love to make people laugh and I love to sing." There was never a stronger. Performing is one way that Rice connects with people And there are few roles that Rice will turn down when he has the chance to perform. He's played serious roles in operas. He's played more lighthearted roles such as the World War I flying ace, Snoopy, and a singing piece of legislation in School House Rock. One role in particular seems to follow him wherever he goes on campus. His drag queen character, Kahlua, has made him a recognizable face on campus since he began dancing at the KU Queers & Allies' Brown Bag Lunch Drag Show. Rice said that he was a little afraid that people might come to associate him solely with the drag queen character, but that he had no regrets about giving life to Kahlua. "Some people get into drugs when they're in college. I got into drag," he said. "It will totally be a Kansas-KU thing." Performing allows Rice to connect with others, but it also is a highly personal experience for him. "The thing I love about performing ... it gives you the opportunity to take your life experiences and put them to different uses," he said. "All the characters I try to play are parts of me, parts of people I've come in contact with, parts of stories." This semester, Rice is looking to take on new characters and new experiences.

Portrait by Jamie Roper/KANSAN Xavier Rice, superstar Student finds bounty of opportunities in Lawrence as singer, actor, RA and drag queen By Derek Prater Kansan senior staff writer avier Rice can barely keep still when he talks. His hands spiral and gesticulate for emphasis. His face beams ebulliently as he sinks his teeth into a subject. He feels compelled, he said, to perform. And sometimes, he just can't contain himself.

Exactly two months ago today — June 30, to be exact — Williams announced he was considering taking the head coaching job at North Carolina. Five days later, he announced he was staying at Kansas. So what changed because of the announcement? Absolutely nothing, according to Williams. Has he received any financial compensation for his loyalty? No. New parking space? Certainly not. Even the recruits have yet to be banging down Williams' door, as the Jayhawks have only one oral commitment for next season. "It was a very hectic summer to say the least," he said. "It didn't get off to the best start. It was a very relieved feeling to get that over with. Then, after that, I got out on the road and stayed there until Aug. 1." Basically, it's just been an average summer: two months of 24-hour recruiting and an occasional vacation. "I just caught my breath," Williams said last week, chuckling in front of the small gathering of reporters in his office. The last time Williams met with the media, he was a sleepless, weary man, finishing up a week that he called the most stressful of his life. Williams recruited like a credit card representative on Wescoe Beach, calling recruits every night and visiting various summer camps. When Williams announced his intentions to stay, people closely associated with the program — such as former players and Bob Frederick, athletics director — seemed to feel that the nation's top recruits would practically fall into the Jayhawks' laps. Not so, insisted Williams. "Bob Frederick made a statement that I probably would not have made, and that's that we would take recruiting to a new level." Williams said. "It's not going to happen. We've never lost a prospect because of the rumors about North Carolina. It's just a question that I've had to answer. It's eliminated one question, and it's eliminated something the other coaches have used against us." Then, with a long breath, Williams explained his recruits' mindsets. "The Kansas people — the people who love Kansas basketball — thought that we could rise to that level. The people in the coaching profession — Bill Snyder; John Wooden, Pete Newell — dropped me a note that would say good things. But prospects don't understand that. They think, 'Coach Williams was recruiting me before for Kansas, and now he's still recruiting me for Kansas, and I'm glad I don't have to think about him leaving.'" However, Williams said not every coach's reaction to his staying was completely positive. "The reception of the coaches themselves is strange because they say, 'That's really something, you must feel good about yourself,'" he said. "Then the next response is, 'Are you crazy? North Carolina is an easier place to recruit, an easier way to the Final Four and the national championship.'" While the results of Williams' staying haven't been felt in the influence of future Jayhawks, it has helped motivate his current players. "We've had this extra kick, and it's all because of Coach staying," said sophomore forward Nick Collison. "You know, I was just like everyone else — not knowing whether he was staying." While the summer has been spent trying to fill his five scholarship spots for next season, Williams did get in some vacation. On Aug. 3, Williams headed to Hawaii for a Nike Camp. Upon his return from the islands, he and wife Wanda drove their daughter Kimberly back to — where else? — North Carolina. Then Williams kept up his Tar-Heel-themed summer when he helped coach at Michael Jordan's basketball camp in Las Vegas. See WILLIAMS on page 3B Transfers confident they can replace big scorers 01 6 8 Bv Zac Hunter sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Since its double-overtime loss to Vanderbilt in the NCAA tournament last season, the Hawks have undergone nearly a complete overhaul. The Kansas women's basketball team is going to have a new look this season. When the team takes the floor for its first exhibition game against the Basketball Travelers on Nov. 8, there will be six new players on the roster, half of whom come from community colleges. KC Hilgenkamp, Dalcon Brown and Fernanda Bosi — three junior college transfers — will join the Jayhawk women's basketball team with expectations of filling holes left by graduates. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN Junior guards Fernanda Bosi and KC Hilgenkamp will add depth to the backcourt that was depleted by the loss of versatile players like Lynn Pride and Suzi Raymant, who combined to average nearly 28 points per game. Bosi will definitely help fill the vacancy left by Raymant beyond the three-point arch. Raymant led the team in both three-point attempts and percentage, hitting 41 percent of her 103 attempts. Bosi said her best attributes as a player were her ability to play defense, penetrate and dish the ball off, and shooting from the outside. A native of Sao Paulo, Brazil, Bosi played for the Brazil Junior National Team and played at Western Nebraska Junior College, where she averaged 15 points and 16 rebounds per game. Hilgenkamp will be called on to be more of a combination guard and will be filling in at both the point and shooting guard positions. One problem all junior college transfers face is the increased talent at the Division I level, but Hilgenkamp, a Hutchinson Community College transfer, said she was not worried about the change. "She just really brings versatility," coach Marian Washington said. "She can help us bring the ball up the floor and she is a great shooter." Apparently, Washington was not the only coach to think highly of Hilgenkamp. Her talents were sought out by Penn State, North Carolina and Auburn. "KC is one of the finest junior college players that came out this past year." Washington said. But she also said that there was nothing she could do but put for maximum effort and that everything else would take care of itself. Junior center Dalchon Brown was signed by Kansas out of high school but spent the last two years at Independence Community College because of academic reasons. While two of the players will be manning the perimeter, the third will be banging down on the blocks. Washington said it was very important to bring Brown in this year because there was some uncertainty regarding the health of some players on the front line. Brown, a native of Virginia Beach, Va., was rated the number one player in the state coming out of high school and was a preseason junior college All-American last year. If the returning players stay healthy, Brown may not play many minutes, but she said she wasn't very concerned with that. I'm just coming in to play and do the best I can," she said. Edited by John Audiehelm Sports Columnist n Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com 12-minute run tests endurance for basketball it's just 44 days until Late Night with Roy Williams, so I have to get ready for basketball. Walk on tryouts are just around the corner, and I have to be prepared. Sure, I'm just 5-feet 8-inches tall, but height isn't everything. I also know which basketball weaknesses I can try to improve over the next six weeks: shooting, passing, dribbling, putting on my uniform. While my skills may be lacking — slightly — I am pretty quick, I play with heart, and I have excelled at cheering for the Jayhawks since I was born, so I make a great addition beyond the end of the bench. I can jump up and down, yell and scream, and make cool posters to offer support. While my heart gives me an edge, my greatest ability is the 12-minute run. The men's basketball team ran it last Thursday. Now it was my turn. Coach Williams said if you could run at least six-and-a-half laps on the Memorial Stadium track in 12 minutes, then you were in decent shape to play Division I college basketball. Since birth I've dreamt of playing for the Jayhawks, of running onto the Allen Fieldhouse floor in front of 16,300 screaming fans. So, I braved the 100-plus degree temperatures and took the challenge yesterday. I ran the 12-minute run. I donned my old high school basketball practice shorts to get me in the "trying out for the basketball team" mood, strapped on my sneakers and took off. The first three laps came easy; I just found my pace and settled into cruise control. Then the ungody heat set in D. dagbit, was it hot. Boy, was I a moron for attempting this. I'd consider it all worthwhile, though, if I made the team. My friends, I'm pleased to inform you today that the dream is still alive. I am a contender. I ran six and seven-eighths laps. I nearly died, but I made it. I've survived the endurance cut at this point. I haven't been kicked off the Make-the-Basketball-Team Island — vet. jean, junior guard John Crider ran circles around me with his eight and one-third laps. So did sophomore point guard Kirk Hinrich. Heck, even senior center Eric Chenowith kicked my tail by running seven and one-quarter laps. But freshman forward Bryant Nash should be hearing my footstans because he barely broke seven. While everyone who ran did beat me, I still believe I am a competitor. I know I've got a chance. I ran more laps than freshman guard Mario Kinsey, who would compete with me for playing time. Of course, he couldn't do the run because he is in the middle of football season right now and was at football practice. But regardless, I did run more laps than someone on the team roster. I also won't be able to walk for the next week. That said, my conditioning may be just a little behind the guys on the roster, but I've still got a few weeks to catch up. How hard can it be? Just trade a few pints for some pounds; a few late nights for some long jogs. If I do that, then I should be caught up in no time. Now, if I could just acquire some basketball talent during the next few weeks. Wristen is a Leawood senior in journalism. Sidelined Smith returns as football team practices in evening to avoid heat By Jason Franchuk Kansas sports writer sports@kansas.com By Jason Franchuk As Dylen Smith sat on the field stretching prior to yesterday evening's practice, it seemed that all of a sudden, he transformed into MacGyer. After leaving practice early Saturday and Monday because of fun-like symptoms, Kansas' senior quarterback returned and participated in the entire two-hour practice at Memorial Stadium. As Smith stretched, he slipped a hulitewarm sports drink. The tape placed on his knee just before drills started was typical procedure for him, and it proved he was going to stay for a while. surely you remember the cult TV hero who could get out of any jam with a few household items. For Smith, they were a sports drink and tape. "As practice went along, I got my energy back," Smith said. Smith was one of a handful of players who have been sidelined because of either dehydration or flu-like symptoms during the recent heat surge. Smith left practice Monday after a brief appearance when he vomited on the field, and coach Terry Allen grew more concerned with Smith's status for Saturday's season opener at Southern Methodist. After losing only two or three pounds, Smith said he was feeling a lot better after more rest. "The doctors did a good job on me," Smith said. It also helped that yesterday's practice was moved from 3:30 to 6:45 p.m. under the lights at the stadium. Just as practice started, shade enveloped the field, creating slightly cooler temperatures. Allen said he did not like having his team getting home at 9 p.m., but there was no alternative until a cool spell hits. The Jayhawks will practice at the same time today. "Unless you can give me that kind of weather at 3 p.m." Allen said about the evening practice. pil... Under the circumstances, Smith's performance pleased Allen. Smith did not go full-speed, but instead relied on a few breaths here and there to delay fatigue. Backup Zach Dyer will continue to prepare just in case, but Allen was happy with Smith's sudden progress. "He got out there a bit today and that was good." Allen said. "I'm confident we'll be able to increase the (repetitions) through the week." Along with Smith, third-stirring sophomore quarterback Jonas Weatherbie also practiced. He too missed Not everybody was so lucky. Junior wide receiver Harrison Hill continues to battle chronic dehydration problems. He visited a specialist in Kansas City, Mo., on Monday, and Allen said that Hill would not play for at least the first game. Sophomore wide receiver Byron Gessaway, who is still healing an ankle injury, and senior wide receiver Eric Patterson will take his place. Briefly. Monday's practice because of flu-like symptoms.

Pistons trade Laettner; Mills to Dallas Mavericks DATRAS MAVERICKS DALLAS — Christian Laettner, who almost went to the NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers in a proposed four-team deal, instead was traded yesterday by the Detroit Pistons to Dallas. Laetner and Terry Mills, another veteran forward, are going from Detroit to the Mavericks in exchange for forwards Cedric Bebalos and John Wallace, guard Eric Murdock and cash. This deal is much less involved than the proposed megadeal earlier this month in which Laettner would have gone to the Lakers. That deal, which fell apart last week, also would have involved the SuperSonics and Knicks and included Patrick Ewing, Glen Rice and Vin Baker among at least 11 players. Detroit reportedly killed what would have been the largest deal in NBA history and then reached an agreement yesterday with the Mavericks. Laetner, a 6-foot-11 former first-draft pick from Duke, averaged 12.2 points and 6.7 rebounds as he started all 82 games last season for Detroit. In his seven NBA seasons, he has averaged 15.7 points and 7.6 rebounds. "This is another piece to our puzzle," said Don Nelson, Mavericks general manager and head coach. "We felt that getting another big player was a priority this summer." Laettten, who will split time with center Shawn Bradley and play forward in Dallas, was in the last year of his contract in Detroit. SCORPIO "Christian is a proven contributor who can bring rebounding, scoring and depth to our front court," said Mark Cuban, Mavericks owner. His contract is worth $6.7 million this season. More TV viewers watched golf match than football NEW YORK — Maybe ABC should consider putting Tiger Woods in the "Monday Night Football" booth. PGA Big audiences tune in to watch the world's best golfer, no matter the setting — and his match-play outing against Sergio Garcia pulled TORRIDGE Tiger Woods: draws in audience with "Battle at Biahorn" in better ratings than comedian Dennis Miller has produced in his three NFL telecasts. ABC's broadcast of Garcia's 1-up victory against Woods in last night's live, prime time, made-for-TV "Battle at in better rat- Bighorn" garnered a national Nielsen rating of 7.6 with an 13 share. That's an increase of 10 percent over the 6.9 rating and 12 share that ABC drew for last year's match-play contest between Woods and David Duval, who at the time was ranked No. 2 in the world. That "Showdown on Sherwood," which Woods won 2-and-1, was the first live network telecast of a golf event in prime time. The Woods-Garcia exhibition drummed up better ratings than the 7.2 the network's "Monday Night Football" averaged for its three preseason games with Miller. Garcia got the nod because of the animated way he often plays, such as in the 1999 PGA Championship when he ran across the fairway and leaped into the air as he chased a shot on the final day. He lost the PGA to Woods by one shot. Qualifier upsets Kuerten; Williams. Davenport roll NEW YORK — Qualifier Wayne Arthurs pulled off the first big upset of the U.S. Open yesterday when he knocked off second-seeded Gustavo Kuerten 4-6, 6-3, 7-4 (6), 7-6 (1). TENNIS Kuerten became only the second No. 2 seed to lose in the first round of the U.S. Open since 1956, when the present system of seedings started. The only other time it happened was in 1994 when second-seeded Goran Ivanisevic was ousted in his opener. Ivanisevic lost another first-round match on Tuesday. Arthurs pounded out 26 aces, the final one a 1.34 m-blazer on match point. Kuerten was the second seeded player to tumble out of the tournament on the second day. Earlier, No. 16 Julie Halard-Decugis fell to Miriam Remans 6-3, 6-4. Defending champion Serena Williams and 1998 women's champion Lindsay Davenport had no problems at all in their opening matches. Williams beat Tina Pisnik of Slovenia 6-3, 6-2, and Davenport crushed Gala Leon Garcia of Spain 6-0, 6-1. Other seeded players to win yesterday included No. 4 Mary Pierce and No. 10 Anke Huber in the women's singles, and No. 7 Thomas Enqist and No. 14 Nicolas Kiefer in men's play. PARK CITY, Utah — Former giant slam world champion Sandra Van Ert and X Games halfpipe medalist Tommy Czeschni headline the 2001 U.S. snowboard team that was announced yesterday. OLYMPICS Coach Peter Foley is looking to improve on the 60-plus podium finishes the team posted last season as it heads into a world championship year and the final warm-up sessions before the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. U.S. Olympic snowboard team members selected Team selection was based on results from both domestic and international events. O O O O OLYMPIC GAMES SYDNEY, Australia — More than a third of the 75,000 tickets sanctioned from the failed Premium Ticket plan for Olympics sold out within hours of going on sale yesterday. Olympic tickets sell out; 30.000 sold in first batch The first batch of 30,000 seats, originally earmarked as Premium Tickets, was sold out by the after noon. Organizers scrapped the Premium Ticket packages last year after complaints that the program put tickets in the hands of bigwigs, instead of the general public. The remaining Premium Tickets, including those for the track and field finals, will be sold in stages. Sydney organizers estimated that about 1.25 million general tickets remain unsold with about two weeks remaining before the opening ceremony, the Australian Broadcasting Corp. said.

Stein allowed five hits in six 2-3 innings, and the Kansas City Royals used two big innings to beat the Minnesota Twins 7-3 last night. Mike Sweeney had a two-run double in a four-run third inning against J.C. Romero (2-4). and Jermaine Dye added a two-run double in a three-run fifth. Sweeney's hit extended his hitting streak to 15 games and tied him with George Brett for the fourth most RBI in a season for R Royals Kansas City with 118. Stein (5-3) cruised through the first six innings, giving up only three hits and not facing more than four batters in an inning. But he gave up solo home runs to Matt Lawton and Corey Koskie in the seventh before being relieved by Kris Wilson. The Twins took the lead in the second inning when Koskie singled with two outs, stole second and scored on Torii Hunter's RBI single. Kansas City took the lead with four runs in the third. Hector Ortiz led off with a walk, and Wilson Delgado followed with a single. Rey Sanchez was hit by a pitch, loading the bases. Sweeney then doubled to right field. Ortiz and Delgado scored on the hit, and Sanchez came across when Lawton's throw from right field got away from second baseman Jay Canizaro for an error. The Royals extended the lead in the fifth, Sanchez led off with a single, and Sweeney followed with a walk. The Twins brought in reliever Jack Cressend, who promptly gave up a two-run double to Dye. After Quinn struck out, Joe Randa singled in Dye, giving the Royals a 7-1 lead. The game was played in front of 11,931 fans, a season-low for the Royals. Royals notes: Royals second baseman Jeff Reboulet was scratched because of a bad back. He was replaced by newly acquired Wilson Delgado. Royals centerfielder Carlos Beltran, who has been on the disabled list since July 5 because of a bruised bone above his right knee, was in Kansas City on Tuesday for an MRI. He was scheduled to report to Triale A Omaha today. ■ Kyle Snyder, the Royals' No. 1 pick in the 1999 draft, has been sidelined for the season because of a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow. He is scheduled for "Tommy John surgery," Sept. 7 and is expected to be out for approximately a year. The Twins have hit 101 home runs in 132 games. They did not hit their 100th home run in 1999 until the 152nd game. The Royals have allowed 202 home runs, the most in the majors, and tying the club record set last season. Randa's RBI in the fifth inning gave him 85 for the season, one more than his previous career high set last year.

"He was very supportive," Williams said of Jordan. "He understood the whole thing." In the camp, Williams led his team to the championship game, where Williams' team of computer technicians lost to former NBA coach Mike Fratello's team. While Williams' summer P.N.C. — post North Carolina — took him all across the country and kept him in contact with all kinds of fans and colleagues, Williams said an encounter he had in Hawaii with NBA All-Star David Robinson proved to be the defining moment of his summer. "He grabbed me this summer to tell me how impressed he was, and I told him that the biggest reason for going was to realize my dream," Williams said. "And then he said the great thing about life is that dreams change." Williams stared down at his desk, glanced out his window, then flashed his defining smile. "I thought that was a pretty good line," he said. Then again, to Kansas fans, so were the words. "I'm staying." - Super Mario With senior quarterback Dylan Smith still suffering from flu-like symptoms, the likelihood increases that freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey will not redshirt this season. Although still improbable, if he doesn't redshirt, it will pose a problem for Williams. Williams plans to have Kinsey walk on to the basketball season when practice starts on Oct. 13. effectively ending his season with football coach Terry Allen's team. But even with Smith ailing, Williams knows it will work out. "If anything were to happen, coach Allen and I have a great relationship, so we'd sit down and whatever is needed to be done will be done." Williams said. "Nope, didn't happen," Williams said. The Old Course At his office last week, Williams showed off pictures from his latest golf travels. During the summer, Williams, Allen and a group of friends traveled to Scotland to play the Old Course at legendary St. Andrews. Unfortunately, Williams didn't accomplish a goal of his — a hole in one. But he did note that Allen is currently at a personal-best 10 handicap. - Edited by Erin McDaniel Javelin thrower to miss Olympics Bv Rvan Malashock By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter If there was ever a time to refer back to the childhood saying "life's not fair," that time came this summer for Kansas track senior Scott Russell. The Victoria, British Columbia native capped off three years of preparation with a national championship in the javelin at the Canadian Olympic Trials. Normally, one would think that placing first in a nation's Olympic trials would merit a berth in the Olympic Games in roughly two weeks at Sydney, Australia. Unfortunately for Russell, Canada's Olympic Federation set the qualifying mark for the javelin higher than Russell's career-best. Therefore, Russell will not go to the Olympics, despite his first-place finish in the trials. "The meet was so much fun," he said. "There were so many people there, and it was a great atmosphere. I'm just really upset with how things worked out." Russell said representing Canada in the Olympic Games had long been a goal of his. "Not going really bothers me because it would have been a great experience and I really got the minimum qualifying throw," he said. "I think it would be especially great because track is probably the biggest sport at the Olympics; there's so much tradition." The explanation for why Russell will be staying home this September is complex. When qualifying for the javelin, there is an "A" standard qualifying minimum and a "B" standard qualifying minimum. Some countries, including the United States, take qualifiers from both the "A" standard qualifiers and the "B" standard qualifiers. For the Sydney Olympics, the "A" standard qualifying throw was 82 meters, and the "B" standard 78 meters. Russell's longest career throw is 78.9 meters. Canada's Olympic Federation made the decision before qualifying began that the country would only be taking "A" standard qualifi ers. This year, in the javelin, there were none. Jayhawk assistant coach Doug Reynolds said he was upset by the decision to keep Russell home. "I'm confused by the whole thing, and I definitely disagree with it, but I'm sure Canada has their reasons for doing this," Reynolds said. "It would be pretty hard for them to bend the rules at this point, but it would've been great to see Scott in the Olympics." Russell sees missing the Olympics as a starting point rather than an end. He's looking forward to the NCAA Championships, the 2001 World Championships in Canada, and ultimately, the 2004 Olympics. "If my body allows it, I'm going to give it all I have to make the next Olympics," he said. "I'll just be starting right over with another four-year training cycle. I'm hoping to do well over the next few years, but everything I've got goes for making it in 2004."

After the Republicans lost several seats in the 1998 elections, Gingrich goes on camera to accept his share of the blame, but even in the walk to the interview room, he tries to cast the losses in the best possible light, explaining to his advisers that most GOP incumbents were victorious. Throughout the film, Pack reveals the fierce rivalry between Gingrich and Clinton, whom, the speaker says, he found "routinely unreliable." Gingrich's slide captured in film When Pack's cameras started following the Georgia Republican in September 1998 during a dinosaur bone search in Montana, the intent was to contrast this moment of relaxation with an otherwise hectic schedule. Gungrich even concedes conviction in the Senate probably wouldn't have been the correct response to the allegations. Such doubts could have been a prime weapon for Clinton defenders had they known about them at the time. The Associated Press Perhaps the documentary's most stunning revelation was the presence of cameras during sensitive closed-door leadership meetings, when Gingrich and his allies hash out how to punish a president for lying about a sex act under oath. "The way Starr wrote the report was much too sex-oriented, and not legally oriented enough," Gingrich said. "On the other hand, do you believe the American people ought to have the right to have information about their government?" In an interview with Pack the following March — after Clinton's impeachment and Gingrich's resignation under fire — the former House speaker seems to criticize independent counsel Kenneth Starr's graphic report to Congress. It's tough to tell who got the better end of a pre-taping arrangement: Pack's behind-the-scenes access to fascinating political theater or Gingrich's assurance the footage wouldn't be made public until well after the fact. Little did he know how vivid the contrast would turn out to be. Soon, the House would ponder whether to impeach President Clinton, and Gingrich's grasp on one of the country's most powerful posts would unravel in lightning speed. Pack's 90-minute retelling, "The Fall of Newt Gingrich," airs at 7 p.m. on PBS stations.

Kansas will take on Saint Louis on Friday. Kansan file photo Coach Mark Francis couldn't believe what he saw. "They were the same players," he said. "But they didn't look like the same players." Just two days after the Kansas women's soccer team strongly opened the 2000 season with a 3-0 victory over Northwestern last Friday in Evanston, Ill., the Jayhawks suffered a 4-0 shutout loss to Illinois on Sunday in Champaign, Ill. It was as if some other team — a less effective team, of course — showed up on the field and played in Kansas uniforms. "they were not able to run. We stepped too slow," said Francis, who guided Kansas to eight wins — the most the team has won in a season — as a first-year coach last year. "We didn't do anything well. We played that bad. "Illinois was pretty good. They were a lot better than Northwestern. But we made them a lot better than they were. If we'd played as well as we did on Friday, it would've been a pretty even game, I think." The question is: what happened to the Jayhawks Sunday? "I don't know," Francis said. "People played the whole game on Friday, and some people looked a little tired (Sunday). I think maybe that's a part of it. We'll do a lot of fitness in practice (this week). I think we need to be a little bit sharper." In soccer, a 4-0 game would be as one-sided as a 10-0 game in baseball."Four-nothing is pretty much slashing someone," said Francis, a two-time Big South Conference Coach of the Year at Southern Alabama. "We got beaten so bad. We were horrible. I think players were disappointed in not just getting beaten. ("But) I think it'd be good for us. Getting beaten that bad so early in the season, I think, made them realize that we still have a lot of work to do," he said. Emma Di Cesare, senior defender and the team's co-captain, agreed. "I think we can just learn from it," she said. "If it wasn't mental breakdown, we were physically tired. And now we know we can't start off a game like that." Unlike Sunday's game, Kansas looked impressive last Friday against Northwestern. Offensively, Kansas fired 18 shots at the Northwestern goal and three of them went in. Defensively, the Jayhawks kept pressuring the ball, especially midfield, and didn't give the Wildcats many scoring chances. "When we had the ball, we did a good job keeping it and switching the ball," Francis said. "Switching the ball allowed us to get in behind the defense a lot. We created a lot of scoring chances, and finishing was very good." Kansas (1-1) will play its third game this season Friday against Saint Louis at Herman Stadium in St. Louis. And hopefully for the Jayhawks, the Kansas team that beat Northwestern last Friday — not the exhausted team that lost to Illinois — will show up. Edited by J. R.

Lawrence's recent string of 100-degree plus temperatures may have caused an increase in domestic crimes among spouses and roommates, said Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County district attorney. She said hot temperatures could cause aggression in close quarters because people may not want to go outside. "The confinement along with heat irritation may cause increases in domestic crimes," she said. BLAZING TEMPERATURES IN LAWRENCE Sunday: 109 Monday: 109 Tuesday: 96 Yesterday: 107 Today: 105 Heat also can cause an increase in other aggressive behaviors. Chris Crandall, associate professor of psychology, said that while theft and car accidents tended to decrease in hot weather, assaults, murders and rapes tended to increase. "High temperatures make people angry, hostile and physiologically aroused," Crandall said. See BEATING on page 3A Chancellor addresses fire danger Chancellor Robert Hemenway sent an e-mail yesterday to faculty, staff and students urging everyone on campus to take extra precautions to avoid starting fires. Hemenway also noted that parking or driving in short grass is liable to start a fire involving the vehicle. Citing lack of rain and high temperatures, Hemenway wrote that careless disposal of cigarette butts had been the cause of five fires on campus in less than a week. "Please make sure that everyone, especially students, is aware of the need to be particularly careful during this period of heat and drought," Hemenway wrote. J. D. McKee Laser equipment may deter speedy drivers JOHN M. HARRIS Jack Thompson, Rocky Mountain Regional Sales Manager and D.O.D. representative from Laser Technology Inc., teaches the KU Public Safety Office about the new laser equipment. Photo by Tara Kraus/KANSAN Detectors to give better accuracy, enable research Bv Rob Pazell writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The chances that speedy drivers will be nabbed on campus increased yesterday when KU public safety officers learned to use new speed-detecting laser equipment. The office bought the two laser units and a speed statistical package from Laser Technology based in Inglewood, Co. Jack Thompson, regional manager, said the lasers were designed to hit one target, as opposed to other radar-detection systems, which can pick up several targets. Thompson compared the jump in accuracy with the difference between a shotgun and a rifle. "When there's a cluster of vehicles, it's harder for an officer to pick up the specific speeder on radar," Thompson said. "With the laser, they can pick out a target and pull the trigger." Thompson said the laser units also contained devices that could measure distances at accidents and crime scenes. Officers can shoot reference points of ranges up to 4,000 feet and put that information into a palm-held calculator. The unit also can measure anything as small as 2.5 centimeters. This can cut time at the scene in half. Thompson said. Interferences like radio waves could limit radars,but not lasers, he said. "The only real limitation on lasers is extremely inclement weather, such as a blizzard." Thompson said. The laser units were purchased as part of a federally funded Local Law Enforcement Block Grant, which was written and administered by Sgt. Rose Rozmiarek of the KU Public Safety Office. Rozmiarek said the lasers were a specific goal of the grant. "The laser gives us increased speed detection on campus and the capability to run studies on specific intersections." he said. The officers who trained with the lasers put them into action yesterday and will continue to train other officers, Rozmiarek said. "Hopefully this will give the University of Kansas the knowl edge it needs to deal with traffic and pedestrian traffic," he said. - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Police search for suspect in battery case By Rob Pazell By Rob Pazell writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The KU Public Safety Office is searching for a male suspect accused of sexually battering a female University of Kansas student Saturday in a residence hall. The battery took place between 3:30 and 4:20 a.m. while the woman was sleeping in the sixth-floor lobby of Hashinger Hall. Police said the suspect lay next to the student, kissed her and touched her breasts as she slept. The student awoke and confronted the suspect, who then left the area. The public safety office has issued a Crime Stoppers alert with a composite drawing of the suspect. Lt. Schuyler Bailey urged students to be careful about where they go to sleep. "We discourage people from sleeping in public areas," Bailey said. "We encourage people to go to their room and lock their doors." Bailey urged students to help in any way they can. The public safety office offered these tips: "If anyone sees someone or something suspicious, please call us." Bailey said. Do not sleep in areas accessible to the public. For safety and security, sleep in your locked residence hall room. - Lock your residence hall doors at all times, even while occupying the room. If you find yourself in a similar situation, clearly say "No," leave the area immediately and notify the police. Report to the police anything or anyone that seems suspicious or out of place. Be alert and aware of your surroundings as well as the locations of the KU campus emergency phones. Anyone with information about this crime or any crime can contact the KU Public Safety Office at 864-5900 or call KU Crime Stoppers at 864-8888. Callers may remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash award if the information provided leads to the apprehension of the suspect. - Edited by Gleisson Abreu Organization helps provide support for international students Special to the Kansan By Livi Regenbaum Students from around the globe gathered Friday for the kickoff International Friends dinner.

The commission said yesterday it would begin the revocation process after company executives refused to honor subpoenas requiring them to appear at a commission hearing. The company has 30 days to make a formal request for a full hearing. The company's casinos could not be closed until after a full hearing was held. The commission scheduled yesterday's rare public inquiry to take testimony about a $500,000 bonus Station Casinos paid to St. Louis lawyer Michael Lazaroff, who has raised questions of influence peddling. Lazaroff testified yesterday morning for about three hours. Eight employees of the company, including top executives, were subpoenaed earlier this month to appear before the commission. The company issued a memorandum Tuesday saying its employees would not honor the subpoenas. Lazaroff pleaded guilty in federal court in St. Louis earlier this year to multiple felonies, including misappropriation of more than $800,000 in law firm expense account funds and other payments that included Station's $500,000.

Bush spent $43 million reaching primary voters BARRY PATTON WASHINGTON — George W. Bush spent more than $40 million trying to reach voters through advertising and by mail and telephone, nearly as much as Al Gore doled out for his campaign as a whole during the presidential primaries, an analysis of campaign spending records show. The study of campaign spending through July 31 shows that Bush, the republican presidential nominee, spent $43 million — nearly half of his record-shattering $100 million campaign treasury — on efforts to reach voters, including $25 million on television and radio ads. Bush: spent $43 million on efforts to reach voters Democrat Gore spend just $14 million on similar voter-targeted activity. Campaign strategists say the spending spree should give Bush an edge with voters for the fall campaign, when each candidate will be limited to spending $67.6 million in federal funds.

Billy Breedlove, 43, of Kansas City, Mo., is scheduled to make his first appearance Sept. 13. Both appearances were postponed so that the defendants' attorneys could be present, Marrs said.

Lefwich: died after an Aug. 12 car accident on l-70 Breedlove, driving a Geo, passed Wolfson, and Wolfson pulled behind Breedlove, who then braked suddenly. Wolfson swerved his car to miss the Geo, spinning out of control and coming to rest in the right lane facing oncoming traffic. Wolfson's car then was hit by a semi truck. Breedlove left the scene and contacted investigators Aug. 13 about his role in the accident. In addition to vehicular homicide, both men were charged with following too closely. Breedlove also was charged with leaving the scene of an injury accident and failure to give proper notice when reducing speed. Vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of an injury accident are both misdemeanors that carry sentences of up to a year in jail and up to $2,500 in fines.

"We suggest that students don't wait until the last minute to do this," said Karen Huettenmueller, assistant director of undergraduate services. "We really want to see them midsemester of the semester before they plan to graduate." She also said that an average of 1,000 applications for graduation are filed for spring graduation, which typically sees more graduates than the fall. Huettennueller said spring graduates should meet with a graduation adviser to complete paperwork such as an application for degree, a major certification sheet and a Board of Regents survey. During this time, the adviser will review the student's academic record to make certain that credit hours, grade point average and major requirements are fulfilled. "The real problems are for those who don't come in at all after having filled their file out and receiving a letter in the mail," said Chris Bishop, graduation adviser. "It's certainly not the best way or timely way to find that out." Natalie Lucas, Kansas City, Mo., senior, said she had already met with an adviser. "In essence, I feel more academically prepared," she said. "My adviser mapped everything out for me. If I hadn't gone, I would have been clueless as to what I should do." Regardless of professional school, all students need to fulfill the requirements set by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences before graduation, said Pam Houston, director of the undergraduate services. Huettenmueller added that seniors would benefit from making certain everything was planned out, down to the last class. "Some students see this as a checklist," Houston said. "We really want them to see is as an intense advising. The adviser in the office looks at the whole picture. By coming in, the student will have the time and flexibility to have adjustments made." Kathy Mason, director of the graduate division of the college, said that most graduate students' pregraduation requirements included completion of either a master's thesis or dissertation for Ph.D., which are due by May 2. "Of course, that's a pretty major thing," she said. In addition, Mason said that master's students must complete a departmental final exam, while doctoral students are required to schedule a presentation of dissertation. Mason said that graduates did not typically complete these tasks during the fall, but that being on task is kev. "They need to be doing this no later than February," she said. "However, it doesn't hurt to think about it the semester before." - Edited by Shawn Hutchinson HARRY POTTER Shawn Pence, Lawrence senior, heads to his locker after a class in the new Murphy Hall addition. After more than a year of construction, the Murphy Hall addition is open for classes. Photo by Heather Young/KANSAN Music addition pleases students administration By Jennifer Valadez Kansan staff writer writer@kansan.com A 52,000-square-foot addition to Murphy Hall is music to the ears of students and administrators in the School of Fine Arts. The addition, which was built to fulfill space and facility needs, houses three rehearsal halls, a music and dance library, multiple classrooms and offices, a computer technology center and expanded storage for musical equipment. "This has definitely been long awaited," said Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of fine arts. "It has been a big plus for the students." Montgomery said that before the addition was completed, musicians rehearsed in the Lied Center. Daniel Berghout, music and dance administrative aide, said students, faculty and staff had made positive comments about the new facility. "It's been a morale booster," he said. "It's state of the art, one of the finest in the Midwest." The addition is already being used by students and faculty for classes and rehearsals. "All of my classes are here except one," said Becky Harris, Gardner sophomore and drum major for the Marching Jayhawks. "It's nice not to have to walk from Murphy to Bailey." Patrick McCarty, Emporia sophomore, said the building was a positive asset to the fine arts program. "This is an outstanding facility to be working in," he said. "There's a lot of places that don't get this opportunity." The addition expanded rehearsal space for the 250-piece marching band, as well as other "It's been a morale booster. It's state of the art, one of the finest in the Midwest." Daniel Berghout Music/Dance administrative aide instrumental ensembles and music education classes. Room-to-room fine tuning created acoustic and soundproofing control, so classes can take place without being disturbed by rehearsals in the next room. Berghout said this was a huge benefit. "As with other programs at the University, they need labs," he said. "These are our laboratories." Montgomery said the addition, which was scheduled to be dedicated in February 2001, had yet to be named. "We're looking for a donor to dedicate the addition to," she said. The space that became free in Murphy Hall after the move is being renovated to house the music education and music therapy departments, which now are in Bailey Hill, Montgomery said. "This will be the first time they will join their music colleagues," she said. "They can now feel part of the department community." Montgomery said the addition, along with the new School of Education, would be one of the last facilities on campus to be built using state funds. "This says that these are programs that are, in the University's eyes, important," she said. "We are very thankful for that." - Edited by Kimberly Thompson Lawrence abortion provider's business may be hurt by ruling writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Bv Melissa Davis Lawrence's only abortion provider may not be able to keep her business open because of a state medical ruling. The Kansas State Board of Healing Arts has prohibited Kristin Neuhaus from using conscious sedation, which eases pain but does not interfere with a patient's respiration, on her patients until she can prove that she abides by national standards for that type of anesthetic. The order is enforced until the entire Board of Healing Arts, which distributes licenses and regulates doctors, can meet again, said Donald Strole. Neuhaus' attorney. The board is not scheduled to meet again for two months, which could hamper Neuhaus' practice. But Strobe said he thought he would be able to get an earlier board date. "We are going to submit a request for a hearing officer and hopefully get her back in business," he said. Neuhaus refused to comment, but Strole confirmed the ruling. For now, Neuhaus still can perform abortions using only local anesthesia on her patients until the board decides on the future of her office. Because of the decision, Neuhaus will have to refer patients who want general anesthetics to other doctors, which may force her to shut down her practice because of lack of business. But Neuhaus is the only abortion provider between Kansas City and Wichita. The ruling follows a hold the board issued earlier this month on Neuhaus' practice after she asked for permission to use Ketamine in conjunction with Valium on her patients. The board issued the hold because it was concerned that Neuhaus would not be well prepared if an emergency occurred, Strole said. The board decided Tuesday that Neuhaus would have to follow national guidelines and improve her record-keeping and then prove to the board that the improvements had been made. Tuesday's decision followed the testimony of a Kansas anesthesiologist, James Glenski, who said poor record-keeping could reflect the level of care patients received. Strole said that Neuhaus had never received any complaints from patients and that he thought she would be capable of handling emergencies. Neuhaus has records showing no patient complaints and no emergencies during abortions, but her records were not adequate to the board. Megan Murphy, a member of the University of Kansas pro-choice coalition, said she fully supported Neuhaus. "We, as a group, support Dr. Neuhaus," Murphy said. "We understand that her services are important and valid. We will do our best to ensure that she will be able to provide services in Lawrence." — Edited by Warisa Chulindra Beating the heat causes crabbiness in living quarters Jackson said the heat had sparked her temper when others failed to do their chores.

The majority won because most southern political leaders had been part of the Confederate government and were banned from holding public office. Regardless of whether they were qualified, the newcomers were shoeins. Naturally, Southerners welcomed these usurpers with all the warmth they might give a leftover bowl of grits, affectionately calling them "carpetbagers." Like a rash that won't go away, carpetbaggers still are around and still are met with some resistance. This year's most famous carpetbagger is first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is running for a New York Senate seat after making a down payment on a house and registering to vote in that state. Hillary was to face Rudolph Giuliani, the controversial Republican mayor of New York, but Giuliani dropped to fight cancer. I respect Giuliani for that decision, but it's too bad. The fight for the New York Senate seat promised to be the most exciting race this year. Now Hillary faces the less-than-famous New MELANIE BORNARD David Grummon columnist opinor@kansan.com York Congressman Rick Lazio, a.k.a. "what's his-name" or "that other guy running against Hillary." So long as Hillary's opponent was a well-known heavyweight like Giuliani, the fact that she's not from New York didn't bother me much. Now that Hillary faces "that one guy" instead of Giuliani, the race isn't quite as even, and Hillary's carpetbagging annoys me a little more. One way to look at the question is to imagine our electoral system without the residency requirements candidates have to get around to place their names on a ballot. Why not have a system in which anybody could run for office anywhere? If voters from a state or district agree with a candidate's views, does it matter where the candidate is from? Why should anyone care about carpetbaggers? That's not what the founders of our country intended when they wrote our Constitution. We are a republic. Rather than having the entire population vote on every national decision, the people living in each state or district elect individuals to represent us in government. We trust them (in theory, anyway) to vote as we would or in our best interest. But inherent in this design is the assumption that representatives actually represent us, know our concerns and share our beliefs and values. For this reason, a representative should actually be from the state or district he or she is to represent. If anyone could run anywhere, someone with enough fame, money and resources could simply search for a weakly contested district and bulldoze his or her way into office. Can a stranger represent a community as well as a long-time citizen? I doubt it. Could a "Los Angeleno" be sensitive to land issues in Wyoming? Could a New Yorker really understand Arkansans, Missourians or Nebraskans within a year of showing up and registering to vote? Can an Arkansas really know the minds of New Yorkers without living there a while first? I seriously doubt it. To me, carpetbaggers run not so much to serve their new constituents, but to advance themselves. Carpetbagging candidates usually claim they've learned the minds of their constituents while campaigning door-to-door during several weeks (never mind that it takes the rest of us years, if not a lifetime, to become so enlightened) and whad'ya know, their new constituents' minds just happen to coincide with their campaign platform! I would like to see candidates actually — oh, I dunno — live in and become a part of a state or district before they claim to represent it. Don't get me wrong; I actually kind of like Hillary. Nevertheless, she should have to do more than rent an apartment or buy a house before she can run for office there. Then again, I'm not from New York.

Only you can prevent campus fires. Perspective Gore's political stances change with the times n 1988. Sen. Albert Gore Jr.. D-Tenn.. In 1988, Sen. Albert Gore JR, D-Tenn., announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. And, honestly, if I'd been politically astute and not 12 years old, he may well have earned my support. You see, when Gore entered Congress in 1977 (and until he became Clinton's running mate in 1992), he was a fairly conservative Democrat on many issues. His views on abortion, gun control, the tobacco industry and gay rights were remarkably similar to those of his opponent, George W. Bush. So what happened? Before speculating on why the changes occurred, let's focus on the changes themselves. First, writing to a constituent in 1984, Gore said: "It is my deep personal conviction that abortion is wrong." From 1977 to 1984, he received an 84 percent approval rating from the National Right to Life Committee. Now, he supports abortion rights, defends ghastly partial-birth abortions and opposes laws that would require underage girls to obtain parental permission before having abortions PETER WILLIAMS Grummon is a Belolt law student. Second, in 1994, the National Rifle Association wrote: "Since being elected to Congress in 1976, Al Gore has been there each and every time sportsmen and gun owners have needed a friend." John McCool guest columnist opinion@kansan.com From 1985 to 1990, Gore voted for the NRA 75 percent of the time. Now, he's among Washington's most fervent gun-control advocates and tries to force constitutionally dubious new restrictions on law-abiding citizens With friends like Gore, who needs enemies? Third, in 1988, Gore told tobacco farmers: "Throughout most of my life, I raised tobacco I want you to know that with my own hands. In 1900, six years after his sister died from smoking-related cancer, Gore still was accepting campaign contributions from tobacco companies. Now, Gore heads the Clinton Administration's assault on the so-called "Big Tobacco," which imposes oppressive new taxes on smokers and extorts as much money as possible through bogus lawsuits against these legitimate American businesses. all of my life ... I’ve hoed it, I’ve dug in it ... stripped it and sold it.” Finally, Gore told the *Manchester Times* in 1981: "I think [homosexuality] is wrong. I don't pretend to understand it, but it is not just another normal, optional lifestyle." In 1984, he told the *Tennessean* he'd refuse campaign contributions from homosexual groups and opposed "the so-called'gay bill of rights'" Now, Gore claims to support gay rights and accepts tremendous sums of money from gay-rights groups. However, when Gore spoke to the *Texas Triangle*, Gore lied to his interviewer: "I hope people realize that my positions stem from deeply held personal conviction. Lesbians and gays are part of my vision for America ... and always have been." Always? As I see it, you Gore supporters must ask yourselves one question: Do you feel lucky? That is, are you willing to bet that the "real" Al Gore is the one we see today, or is the '90s Gore the genuine article? Will he someday betray and abandon you and your beliefs, just as he betrayed and abandoned anti-abortion supporters, gun owners, tobacco farmers and so many others? Maybe, maybe not. In a 1988 presidential primary debate with Richard Gephardt, Gore lectured his rival: "I'm going to lay it on the line, Dick ... The next president of the United States has to be someone the American people can believe will stay with his convictions." I couldn't agree more. Editorial Retail chains will destroy downtown Lawrence should preserve Massachusetts Street's small-town characteristics. However, as the town grows and develops, large corporations such as Gap Inc. and Abercrombie & Fitch have joined local businesses downtown, setting the stage for other such stores to move in as well. The movement of corporate retail chains to Massachusetts Street is contributing to the deterioration of the charming downtown that people visualize when they think of Lawrence. Downtown Lawrence is known for its unique character and atmosphere. Massachusetts Street's blocks of family-owned mom and pop shops, unique coffee houses and bars bring a flare to downtown that should be preserved. It is not a bad idea for these large chains to open elsewhere in Lawrence, because it is inconvenient to have to drive to Kansas City to find popular brands. However, the city should restrict what is allowed on Massachusetts Street to preserve its small-town appeal. Both Eddie Bauer and Talbots clothing stores soon will be moving into the three-story building west of Free State Brewing Company, 636 Massachusetts St. What will happen to stores such as Weaver's that have been around for several years? Some owners of these mom and pop shops have made their livings off the business of tourists and residents for years, and it isn't right to let major chains take away from their profits. University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents take great pride in downtown Lawrence. Massachusetts Street is a perfect place to take a morning walk or go for a night on the town. Lawrence would not be the same without the flavor of its local businesses. To commercialize downtown anymore than it already is would be a bad idea. It would be a shame to see big business smother the rich, small-town scene that Lawrence offers. City commissioners should reconsider their decision to allow businesses such as Eddie Bauer and Talbots to set up shop on Massachusetts Street or adjacent streets. The merchants would be just as successful in another part of town, whereas most shops on Massachusetts Street depend heavily on location for their prosperity.

Parker, a North Carolina reject, was scooped up and welcomed by the University of Kentucky yesterday. Parker had been denied admittance at North Carolina last week because of discrepancies in his SAT scores. After Parker was released from his letter-ofintent to North Carolina, Kentucky looked deeper into his numbers. Those numbers were not points-per-game or rebounds; they were grade point average and high school curriculum. Kentucky found that Parker took an accelerated curriculum during high school but wasn't given full credit for the courses he took. The corrected credit raised his high school GPA, nullified the SAT scores in question and made him academically eligible to play for Kentucky this fall. Parker sat out last year at Fork Union (Va.) Military Academy in hopes of earning qualifying test scores. As it turned out, that time was wasted. His scores were good enough from the beginning. "This is one of the most complex cases our compliance office has ever handled," said Kentucky Athletics Director Larry Ivey in a statement Tuesday. "Sandy Bell, our assistant athletics director for compliance, has worked closely with the NCAA Clearinghouse to ensure that Jason gets credit where credit is due. His corrected GPA combined with previous test scores from last winter, which have not been challenged, allow him to play for the Wildcats this season." His grades are fine, and Parker now is happy to be a Wildcat. "I'm just excited and thrilled to be in school here at Kentucky," Parker said in a written statement. "I looked for four things when choosing a school: a great basketball tradition, a great coach, a chance to win a national championship and strong academics." He found all of those at North Carolina, but unfortunately for the Tar Heels, things just didn't work out. In a statement, Kentucky coach Tubby Smith said he was happy Parker would be joining the Wildcats. At Carolina, Parker would have pushed senior center Brendan Haywood during practice and seen minutes as a power forward. At Kentucky, the 6-foot-8-inch, 250-pound forward will contend for a starting role immediately by battling sophomore forward Marvin Stone and junior forward Jules Camara in practice. "We're very excited that Jason's going to live out his dream," Smith said. "I'm glad he's getting the opportunity to do that at Kentucky. He will add a real presence and some much-needed depth on the front line." — Edited by Amy Randolph Royals beat Twins, Sweeney nears record The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Mike Sweeney hit a three-run double to give him 121 RBI, second most in Royals history, and Kansas City held on to beat the Minnesota Twins 8-7 yesterday in 100-degree heat. The official temperature in downtown Kansas City in the seventh inning was 104. The Royals closed the sun-baked upper deck and let everyone move down to lower-level seats, many in the shade. A water main break that disrupted water service at Kauffman Stadium about two hours before the game, added to the crowd's discomfort. Service was restored about 15 minutes after the game started. But the club said all tickets, used as well as unused, could be redeemed for any other home game this season Ricky Bottalico came in and allowed singles to Midre Cummings and pinch-hitter Jay Minnesota trailed 8-0 after three innings but drew within one on Denny Hocking's three-run homer in the ninth against Jerry Spradlin. Canizaro, before getting David Ortiz to hit into a double play and Torii Hunter to ground out. Sweeney's double against Mark Redman stretched his hitting streak to 16 games and keyed a six-run second inning as the Royals swent the two-game series. With 30 games left, Sweeney is 12 RBI short of the club record of 133 set by Hal McRae in 1982. Mac Suzuki (8-7) gave up two runs and nine hits in seven innings, lowering his ERA from 4.00 to 3.94, sixth in the American League. Redman, the AL's rookie leader in wins, striketeux, ERA and winning percentage, gave up six runs and seven in two innings. Kansas City's Mark Quinn, hit his 19th homer leading off the third against Johan Santana. Quinn, along with Redman, is one of the contenders for the American League Rookie of the Year award. Jermaine Dye, who was three for four, singled leading off the second and went to third on Quinn's double. Joe Randa and Dave McCarty had RBI singles, and Luis Ordzad had a run-scoring groundout. Coaches association to make home in KC The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Some day Kansas City may be to basketball coaches what Cooperstown is to baseball players. Seeking to expand its voice and presence, the National Association of Basketball Coaches announced yesterday that Kansas City will be its permanent home. In addition, the NABC hopes to sponsor a 16-team tournament in Kansas City beginning in the 2001-2002 season and to build a coaches hall of honor with annual inductions. "The NABC is going home," said Purdue coach Gene Keady, NABC president. "Municipal Auditorium is recognized by our association as one of the birthplaces of the college basketball coaching profession." "There have been more national championships played in Municipal Auditorium than any other building in the country," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "You can walk in there and almost hear the voices of the past." Kansas City has agreed to provide about 60,000 square feet of space for the NABC offices, the hall of honor and an interactive fan event. Williams said there was talk of having one of the three local college teams — Kansas, Missouri and Kansas State — in the NABC tournament each season. The format and number of teams has not been decided. "We're talking about something along the lines of the NIT, a 16-team tournament," said NABC Executive Director Jim Haney. "In time, Kansas City will be synonymous with basketball coaches," said Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson, a member of the NABC board of directors. "The Basketball Hall of Fame is in Springfield (Mass.), but this will be to honor coaches — not just college coaches but high school coaches and coaches at different levels." The NABC, which has maintained offices in suburban Kansas City, has basically been a lobbying group for college coaches within the NCAA. But coaches are moving to expand their influence. They announced they are moving their headquarters into historic old Municipal Auditorium, site of 10 NCAA Final Fours. The coaches also are hoping to have more influence over NCAA rules.

Dwyer, a junior, has played 23 games (starting seven) so far as a Jayhawk, but this year his presence is more pivotal because he is the only Kansas defensive lineman with Division I-A experience. His experience has turned him into an adviser and confident to the new crew up front. The line's relative inexperience — at least in terms of major college football — has not dampened Dwyer's enthusiasm. "I'm more excited now than ever," he said. I'm more excited now than ever, he said. Dwyer may be the lone defensive lineman with major college football experience, but it did not take him long during two-a-day prac tices to realize that the new guys might be enough to improve the defense. A bevy of junior college players have made an impact already heading into Saturday's season opener at Southern Methodist. "The first thing I noticed is the speed of these guys," Dwyer said. "All of them were fast and big and aggressive." Dwyer has been particularly impressed with Ervin Holloman and De'Nard Whitfield, both of whom are expected to start Saturday. Holloman, a transfer from Garden City Community College, is a 6-foot-4, 285-pound left end. Whitfield, who arrived at Kansas this year from Fort Scott Community College, measures 6-4, 240. Combined with Dwyer, the three are expected to get to the quarterback faster than last year. whenever Kansas' secondary was criticized for questionable play last year, Dwyer took the criticism to heart. He said he figured that if the lineman did a better — and faster Job of getting to the quarterback, then the last line of defense would be able to perform its assignments more efficiently. "I take a lot of responsibility for a lot of the secondary's problems," Dwyer said. "We've made some adjustments for this year on the line to help out. We've made it a lot easier system so that we can have no confusion. It's not a thinking game for us. We just need to attack and be aggressive." Heading into the first game of any season, a coach has concerns. A big one for Kansas coach Terry Allen was the defensive line because of the overhaul from last season. Besides Whiffield and Holloman, a junior college All-America last year, three other linemen transferred to Kansas this year from junior colleges. That leaves seven juniors and freshman redshirt Tony Strickland available. Despite all the turnover and youth, Allen likes what he sees. "I was pleased with the way they initially came in," he said. "Two guys inside — Dwyer and Holloman — have the respect of their teammates. Holloman is a pretty steady force." Briefly... Senior quarterback Dylen Smith has been recognized as one of 23 candidates for the Johnny Unitas Award, presented to college football's top senior quarterback. Other Big 12 Conference candidates are Josh Heupel (Oklahoma) and Sage Rosenfels (Iowa State). Several Jayhawks have been nursing minor injuries, but only wide receivers Algen Williams (knee) and Harrison Hill (chronic dehydration) will not play at SMU. Wide receiver Byron Gasaway has been nursing an ankle sprain, and several Jayhawks have been recovering from flu-like symptoms and dehydration.

Geronymo is expected to be in top shape for the coming season and is looked upon as one of the more versatile players for the Jayhawks. Geronymo began her college volleyball career at Barton County Community College but transferred to Kansas last year. Photo by Brad Drier/KANSAN Blocker jazzes up volleyball team Injury forces dancer to trade in her tights for spikes at Kansas By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Danielle Geronymo dreamed of being a dancing queen. Studying jazz as a child in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Geronymo saw her future in the theater. Tall and lanky with an incredible smile and emotions on her sleeve, she seemed to have what it takes. That was until she suffered an injury to her foot and her talent took a back seat to aliment. Surgery was performed but to no avail. Geronymo was forced to turn in her tights. Dejected, Geronym began just going to school and hanging out with friends to pass the time. "And then one day I saw an ad on TV and it said 'tall girls wanted for volleyball,'" Geronymo said. "It was for a club volleyball team and 2,257 girls tried out and 23 made it, and I was one of them. That was in 1995. Now Geronyo is a middle blocker at the University of Kansas, ready for her senior season and eager to finish up her degree in humanities next year. But the University wasn't where the Brazilian blocker began her collegiate career. "I recruited Danielle to Barton County Community College when I was the coach there," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard, referring to the school located in Great Bend. "I learned of her through a contact, a coach on the Eastern coast." "I had never touched a volleyball before." The 6-foot-2 Geronymo had exactly what Bechard's Barton County program needed. "We just knew it would be a good "We just knew it would be a good opportunity to get a middle blocker with her skill level, and there wasn't one in the state of Kansas at that time," Bechard said. Bechard left Barton for Kansas after Geronymo's freshman season, but Geronymo didn't trail right away. "My sophomore year my best friend from Brazil came to play with me at Barton," Geronymo said. "Now she's at Texas, so we'll play against each other." Completing junior college, Geronymo was courted by Division I powers from Nevada to Hawaii. "I wanted to see more of the country than Kansas," Geronymo said. "I was clueless of where I wanted to go." Bekhara. "When she came here she was pretty shy at first," said Amy Myatt, a senior teammate and outside hitter. "I think it was really hard for her to come to such a big school, especially from a school where everything was more one-on- Eventually loyalty sent her back to Bechard. Geronymy is still on the quiet side, she never has been inept in showing feeling. In fact, she prefers raw emotions to words. English or Portuguese. one." "She has good technical skills, but part of the attraction with Danielle is how much emotion she plays with." Bechard said. "I still remember her first kill, it was that emotional." Besides emotion, Geronymo came accessorized with all the skills that made her an international prospect to begin with. "She's a middle blocker, and so you'd think that she'd just block balls, but she can go to the back row, she can dig balls and pass, and that's special," Bechard said. "It's really refreshing to see someone of her size that has all the skills necessary to perform well." And luckily for Bechard, she's giving command performances in the Horejsi Family Athletic Center instead of the Lied Center. - Edited by Shawn Hutchinson Club works to promote crimson and blue spirit sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter By Aaron Johnson In a school where many think basketball is life and where football is ever increasing its popularity, the Hawk Club has become an important promoter of these sports at Kansas.

A two-year letterman and offensive lineman at Highland Community College, I played in the school's annual alumni game last Saturday night at Highland. After last year's game and the soreness that followed, I repeatedly thanked the genius who created Advil. I also vowed then that I would train this summer for Saturday's game. Still, I wasn't in absolutely horrible shape. The following schedule illustrates my "season": Rumors floated around my hometown of Washington that a weight room and track existed there, but unfortunately I couldn't find either in the town of 1,200 residents. 7:08 p.m. — Kickoff. We elected to receive and started the game on roughly our own 25 yard line. 6:00 p.m. Arrival at Highland. Alumni pre-game wutions traditionally occur at Ernie's, the one bar in Highland. I chose to warm up on the field, but during the second quarter I was pondering what beverage — other than water — I would consume after the game. 7:14 p.m. Interception. The only thing standing between the inceptor and the goal line was me. I was an obstacle for roughly 1.6 seconds. HCC 6, Alumni 0. 7:52 p.m. — The alumni offense drove 70 yards with a smaller line and mostly passing. I wasn't in the lineup. Crimson-and-Blue-bleeding former coach Don Fambrough could lead the alumni. Former quarterbacks Chip Hilleary, Nolan Cromwell, Mike Norseth and Mark Williams could share time as signal-callers. Backs L.T. Levine, Tony Sands and June Henley, along with receivers Isaac Byrd and Ashaudiad Smith could highlight the receiving corps. Former Jayhawk Keith Loneker could lead the offensive line, while Gilbert Brown and Dana Stubblefield could command the D-line, along with Tony Blevins in the secondary. Although Kansas probably won't have another alumni game, wouldn't it be great to bring back some Jayhawk greats to tangle with the current team? Linebackers playing could include Willie Pless, Ron Warner and Keith Rodgers, who would make for an intimidating presence. The rest of the game wasn't important. The referees were kind enough to let the clock run continuously in the final quarter, and the varsity won 19-6. I improved as the game progressed in the second half and was bracing for prolonged post-game pain again this year, but exerting less energy during the game helped reduce any aches or pains. 7:56 p.m. — The heftier starting line, including me, was back in, and on the first play inside the 10, we scored on a run. HCC 12, Alumni 6. While at Northern Iowa, Allen said the Panthers had a yearly alumni game, and he played on the alumni side a few times. All of this got me thinking: Why doesn't Jawbay football have an alumni game? Alumni games had been played at Memorial Stadium until roughly 15 years ago. Kansas coach Terry Allen said he wasn't sure if NCAA rules prohibited such games, but he said a risk of liability stopped the annual game. While the current Jayhawks would probably win — they'd have two weeks of two-a-days under their belts — the Alumni's talent would definitely pose a challenge. The Alumni, on the last play of the game, from their own one yard-line, put in Gale Savers for the first time. Sayers, the NFL Hall-of-Famer, takes the toss from Williams, fights to the outside and scamper 99 yards for the touchdown. *You never know* You never know. 1 Linenberger is a Washington senior in journalism.

But with so many to choose from, college students often are left clueless at the grocery store frozen-foods aisle. We surveyed a panel of 15 (sober) KU students to find the best pie for the price, judged by sauce, crust, cheese and overall craving satisfaction. Here's what we found. Red Baron Four Cheese Pizza $5.19 22 fat grams, 420 calories for 1/4 pizza With mozzarella, cheddar, provolone and Parmesan cheeses sprinkled with basil, the Red Baron pizza is inviting to the eyes as well as to the stomach. This pizza was the most popular among tasteesters. Brian Cooper, Overland Park senior, said the cheesy pizza went down smooth and looked enticing on a plate. He wasn't impressed with the thin crust, but said the proportional amounts of cheese and zesty sauce made up for the defect. Freschetta Four Cheese Pizza $4.09 14 fat grams, 390 calories for 1/2 pizza This pie got the award for the Most Misleading Pizza. It looked good frozen, but taste-tasters were highly disappointed with the baked product. The folks at Freschetta couldn't combine four cheeses proportionately to the inadequate amount of sauce. Joel Worthington, Overland Park freshman, said the sauce simply wasn't as zesty as the box claimed. Worthington also said the pizza's aftertaste made Natural Light beer taste like an expensive import. Totino's Party Pizza 61.50 14 fat grams, 320 calories for 1/2 pizza What do you expect for $1.59? While it's easy on the checkbook, Totino's leaves the stomach growling, tasters said. Marissa Fagan, Overland Park senior, declared the pizza "unfinishable" and compared the pie's taste to the cardboard it came on. With plastic-like cheese and bland sauce, most of the Totino's ended up in the garbage can. DIGIORNO RISING CRUST Pizza DiGiorno's Four Cheese Pizza with rising crust $3.99 9 fat grams, 280 calories for 1/3 pizza As the commercial promises, DiGiomo's pizza looks like it came from the delivery man, not the frozen-food aisle, and it tastes almost as good. The ladies dug the thick crust, while the guys enjoyed the tangy sauce. For once, the people in advertising were telling the truth. Tombstone Pizza Photo illustration by Salena Jabara/KANSAN $4.99 15 fat grams, 350 calories for 1/4 pizza What do want on your tombstone? How about a glass of water to follow the spicy sauce. Tasters liked the thin crispy crust but thought the sauce had too much of a kick. For the tree huggers in the group, the environmentally friendly, non-cardboard packaging was a plus. Although the price is a little steep, a Tombstone pizza wouldn't be a bad last meal. 5 fat grams, 330 calories for one pizza For a low-fat pizza, even the doubters, particularly the guys, changed their minds after a taste. The Healthy Choice Supreme French Bread Pizza $2.29 gles, sausage and pepperoni were supported by a boat of bread that never got soggy. If you don't grab the carton of Ben & Jerry's while you're waiting the 30 plus minutes to bake the pizza, a tasty Healthy Choice complements your diet well. Toaster Breaks Pizza Pockets $2.79 for six pockets 8 fat grams, 170 calories for one pocket A Pop-Tart with cheese and sauce rather than icing and fruit filling, the Toaster Breaks pizza pockets were the biggest surprise of the test. For a meal-on-the-go, the pockets are a nice choice at a cooking time of under two minutes in the toaster. However, Heather Budig, Great Bend junior, said she wouldn't substitute the pockets for a traditional pie. Tasters did enjoy the flaky coarsen-like pocket crust but were a bit put off by the sweet sauce. Maybe it's not unlike a Pop-Tart after all. - Edited by Clay McCuistion sauce crust cheese overall Red Baron Freshcheta Totinos Diglornos Tombstone Healthy Choice Toaster Breaks Pizza --- --- --- --- JAYPLAY inside Horoscopes .2B Fine Arts ...6B Crossword .4B Classifieds ...5B Music .3B The Real Thing MTV's The Real World domi- nated the Kansan.com poll for best reality TV show.

Former hacker to be employed by victim GREENVILLE, N.C. — A former East Carolina University student who was arrested after hacking into the university's computer network has been hired by the school — for his computer expertise. Nolan Waithe Grant was hired Aug. 16 to work at the university computer system's help desk at a salary of $21,626. Three years ago, he pleaded guilty to hacking into the school's Unix computer network. Jeff Huskamp, the university's director of computer and information systems, confirmed Tuesday that Grant was an employee. He would not say whether he knew of Grant's hacking history when Grant was hired. "That's going into personnel things that I can't discuss," Huskamp said. Grant was the best qualified candidate to apply for the job, he added. Grant pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts of accessing a computer without authorization and derying computer services to an authorized user after hacking into the school's system in 1997. He declined to comment. The university has since beefed up its computer security. COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Six chimps have a great new reason to monkey around. They're fithy rich. An 83-year-old Danish woman who Woman leaves money to zoo's chimpanzees had no living relatives has bequeathed $60,200 to the half-dozen chimpanzees at the Cochenhagen Zoo. inner will, Elsebeth Christensen donated the money to the animal park with a specific requirement that the money benefit the zoo's chimps. Christensen included the monkeys in her will in memory of her daughter, who suffered a fatal illness 50 years ago and spent her last weeks visiting the chimps at the zoo every day. "We will use it to make improvements and modernization of their cage," the zoo's financial manager Soeren Glud said yesterday. Judge Christian Notleyen read the will to the present occupants of the glass and concrete cage — Jimmy, Trune, Fifi, Trine, Grinni and Gigi — on Monday after he had informed zoo officials. The apes watched the judge with curiosity, but they rapidly lost interest. The heirs, however, behaved better than many people Notlevsen had seen in court during readings of wills. "They didn't start fighting," the judge said. A Jefferson County judge had ordered the release of Parks and another man Wednesday, the same FORDYCE, Ark. — If only inmate Sherman Lee Parks had known what was going on in a nearby judge's office, he might not be behind bars today. Prisoner escapes jail on date of release day the 50-year-old inmate escaped from jail, authorities said. "The judge ruled that since they had been locked up for nine months to let them out," said Dallas County Sheriff Donny Ford. Parks had served nine months for burglary. Parks, now wanted for an escape attempt, was re-arrested early Thursday morning, a sheriff's department dispatcher said. He was back in the Dallas County Jail. Rare lobster saved for scientific studies AMAGANSETT, N.Y. — All the other lobsters must be green with envy. A live 3-pound lobster was rescued from becoming a tasty dinner when a seafood market manager noticed something unusual — its shell was blue. The rare royal-blue specimen was one of 50 Nova Scotia lobsters delivered to Stuart's Seafood Market last week. Owner Charlotte Klein Sasso was thrilled. "I just started yelling, 'Don't touch that lobster,'" said Sasso. "If I didn't spot him when I did, he would have wound up on someone's plate." The genetic coloring variation occurs in about one of every 3 million lobsters, scientists say. Lobsters come in other colors, too, such as yellow, black and green. White lobsters, one out of every 30 million, are the rarest. the blue lobster, named Frank after blue-eyed crooner Frank Oddities Sinatra, was stored in a tank. It was headed Tuesday to the Marine Science Institute in Montauck, N.Y. It will be studied, not eaten, promised marine biologist Anthony D'Agostino, the founder of a privately funded 30-year-old research effort called the Blue Lobster Project. Taxpayer dedicates life to support tax GREEN BAY, Wis. — John Tomasich wants to pay local taxes. Really. In fact, the Green Bay Packers fan is so much in favor of a sales tax to renovate the football team's home at Lambeau Field that he gave up his life in California to lobby for it. "Once I decided that this was an important issue to me, I decided I was either going to do this all the way and in overdrive, or I wasn't going to do it at all," Tomasich said Sunday. Earlier this month, he and his wife quit their jobs, sold their house in Long Beach and moved to Brown County so he could personally campaign for the proposed half-percent sales tax. Between now and the Sept. 12 referendum, Tomasich, 41, plans to lobby ceaselessly for the tax, distributing homemade pamphlets and talking with as many people as possible about a cause that has changed not only his lifestyle but his life.

Threads 'n Tunes is located at 1410 Kasold Drive, Suite A-6, in the Orchard Corners shopping center. It is the only used clothing or CD store west of Iowa Street, said Chelan David, store owner and 1994 University of Kansas graduate. "We're really pleased with the location," David said. "The biggest challenge is that not everyone knows we're here yet." David said he thought the ease of parking and proximity to where many students live was an advantage for the store. The store sells CDs and consignment clothing from name brands such as the Gap, Banana Republic and Abercrombie & Fitch. "It's an upscale consignment store," David said. "It's very good quality for a fraction of the price you'd pay for it new." The store will have a grand opening Saturday, Sept. 9, with refreshments and prizes donated by other Lawrence businesses. David said this was the first store in Lawrence to combine used clothing and CDs. "I'm always looking for a deal," Snider said. "What better for students than a place that has both used clothing and CDs?" "It's almost like having two stores in one," David said. "It's a good mix for younger people." Eric Snider, Wichita senior, said he had chopped at used clothing stores downtown and would probably visit the new store. Threads 'n Tunes buys CDs for $3 outright or $4 in-store credit. People who bring in consignment clothing will sign an agreement to initially keep 45 percent of the sale price. If the garment doesn't sell, the percentage earned Store info: Threads 'n Tunes 1401 Kasold (Suite A-6 in the Orchard Corners Shopping Center) Hours: Tuesday - Saturday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday 1 -5 p.m. www.threadantuner.com David and his wife, Kimberly, will manage the store, which has been in the planning stages for two years. will decline during a 60-day period, after which the consignor can pick up the item or the store will donate it to charity. "This is a dream I've had," David said. "It's probably the best decision I've ever made." Edited by Amy Randolph Band to exhibit unique sound at Bottleneck By BriAnne Hess By BriAnne Hess Kansan senior staff writer layplay@kansan.com Sister Seven is bringing its unique sound to The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., Wednesday. Hal Sutton, guitarist, took some time at the start of the band's tour in Nashville to answer questions. The band has performed in Lawrence several times in the past four years. Sutton also either co-wrote or wrote several of the songs on the band's new album, Wrestling Over Tiny Matters. What is the best compliment someone could give you about your music? "I guess, usually when someone can feel something; if it moves them in some way, you can usually tell by the look on their face." Your favorite song on the CD Wrestling Over Tiny Matters? "This One' because of the lyrics and stuff. It's a song I wrote three or so years ago, and it means a lot. It's my least favorite to play. 'Polishing the Looking Glass' is my favorite song to play." How would you classify Sister Seven's sound? "We're definitely a rock band — guitar rock. I guess it's not the hippest thing right now." What are you listening to right now? "Jeff Buckley's Mystery White Boy. He died a couple of years ago. It's a great CD. De La Soul — most of which is great. And I'm always listening to Bob Dylan. Every year I buy a new Bob Dylan album." Edited by Sara Nutt The New Amsterdam— Never You Mind This is straight-from-the heart music. The New Amsterdam's spare, uncluttered sound gives them an earnest quality that has wide appeal. The harmonies aren't complex, nor are the melodies especially intriguing, but the band is talented and plays with great enthusiasm. The best tracks are the slower, more reflective songs such as "Idaho," "Goodbye," and "When We Two Parted." The opening to "When We Two Parted" is clever, with wailing guitars that sound like someone crying. However, the band's up-tempo songs need more depth. "Every Double Life" is a good beginning for a song, but it ends too soon. Many of the songs on Never You Mind are rather short, so the musical ideas don't get developed or explored fully. The instrumentation is fairly basic throughout — just guitars and drums. "Never Treat Others" is a nice exception, with a Hammond B3 adding some color. Matthew Pryor, lead guitarist and singer for the New Amsterdamdams, belongs to another group called the Get Up Kids. The Get Up Kids will perform tomorrow at the Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St. The emotion will be the same, but expect a less unplugged feel. Lyrics ●●●○○○ Originality ●●●○○○ Instrumentation ●●●○○○ — Melitta George Damian Worley's debut album, *Hard Rain Don't* *Last*, is heaven to the ears of country music pursue everywhere. the tall Tennessee native may also gain some attention from some fringe country fans with his strong lyrical presentation of tender ballets and up-tempo honky-tonk. AMAZING JOURNEY The opening track on Worley's album, "A Good Day to Run," makes the listener want to leave everything behind and drive down a wide-open road. Worley who co-wrote 10 of the album's 12 songs, is enjoying the success of his first single, "When You Need My Love." The song describes the situation of a man who is romantically involved with a woman only when her other relationship is rocky. While songs with traditional country themes may seem strange to listeners of new country, Worley's music is reminiscent of a bygone era in country music, with the ever-present sounds of fiddles and steel guitars. Worley's album also should keep the country-line-dance crowds happy with a trio of lyrically cute songs: "If I Could Just Be Me," "Sidewaws" and "Too Many Pockets." Worley will perform tomorrow night at The Beaumont Club, 4050 Pennsylvania, in Kansas City, Mo. Lyrics ●●●●○ — Michael Sudhalter Lyrics ●●●○○ Originality ●●○○ Instrumentation ●●○○ Sister Seven — Wrestling Over Tiny Matters What sets Sister Seve pop rock bands is its lead singer, Patrice Pike. Pike's vocal talent is apparent after hearing the first track; her voice has an unique quality that is edgy but sincere. Pike is assisted with well-written material. Each band member shares the songwriting credits with the producer, John Shanks. The lyrics cover the usual subjects such as love and relationships, but they also explore topics such as religion and gun control. The album's title comes from the song "Elijah," in which "Elijah weeps to the pavement, hands outstretched and wom." The first track, "Fallen Angel," gives instructions on questioning salient figures: "But don't ask for truth and conscience, don't ask why Eve was an angel." The playing is competent from guitarists Pike and Sutton. Musically, there is not much that is incredibly special, but there are a few noteworthy tunes. "Elijah" is a hard-driving song with a cutting guitar line. The solo on "Loaded" is emotional, somewhat reminiscent of Hendrix in its intensity. The best part is that each song has a different mood and theme. "Kiss Me Baby" has a fun, breezy feel unlike any other track on the album. Sister Seven will perform Wednesday at The Bottleneck. The band has been around for nine years playing clubs in Austin, Texas, so their show should be well done. Lyrics ●●●●●● Instrumentation ●●●●○ Originality ●●●●○ Dillinaer Four — Versus God The title of Dillinger Four's newest release hints that the group is taking on its biggest challenge yet. The group uses this new album to question life's meaning and purpose and consequently finds itself provoking a relatively powerful adversary — God, in this case. Utilizing punk rock and its close cousins' well-worn tools of the trade, Dillinger Four meshes her heretical message with its music in an appropriate fashion. Rabid electric guitars, skittering bass lines and angry drum beats are more than enough to effectively punctuate songs with titles such as "Who Didn't Kill Bambi" and "Maximum Piss & Vinegar." 10 But his holiest isn't the only one here to draw the wrath of Dillinger Four. On "Define 'Learning Disorder,'" the Four lashes out at misguided school guidance counselors. And the cleverly titled "Let Them Eat Thomas Paine" features a certain social consciousness that heartbreak back to the original punk scene. "But we act like we didn't know, then kids shoot kids or community defies its role/Then of course it's everyone's fault except anyone we might know/Tell me are the colors of the flag much prettier to see when viewed from the requisite comfort of the knees." The extensive liner notes, which accompany the album, are useful for two reasons. They contain the noteworthy song lyrics that can be difficult to make out when sung above the music. They also show the individual group members in some hilarious poses giving the whole affair an ironic, tongue-in-cheek effect. cheek quality — not a bad idea, if one ever finds himself up against God. Lyrics ●●●●○ Originality ●●●○ Instrumentation ●○○ Derek John Yve Adam — Fiction Fiction is an album where the mood is more important than the music. The lyrics aren't catchy or striking, but it doesn't matter because the soundscape is unique. The title track begins with synthesizers evoking images of India, then switches to the cool voice of the lead singer, Yve. Guitarist Adam Popowitz combines different guitar distortions to create an uncommon sound. With the dreamy lyrics, the overall effect is transcendent, otherworldly. The same can be said of the other tracks, with "Fiction" being the most successful at setting the mood. Another contributor to Yve Adam's unique sound are the diverse instruments it brings in to assist it. The trumpet solo on "Far Behind" gives the tune a jazzy feel. Yve Adam picks an idea up from the Beatles with the double string quartet on "Personal Universe" and "Pandora's Box." Instead of playing the usual dance music at your next party, try putting on Fiction, and give the atmosphere a sophisticated feel.

The story spread through the Internet, bringing a lot of traffic to kansan.com. It also reconfirmed the site's status as the online leader in chalupa news — a position it first won with coverage of my biggest fan. Dion Rayford. As a chalupa, I'm curious about the sort of Web sites interested in news about my south-of-the-border flavor. These evaluations come from the bottom of my seasoned ground beef. http://www.obscurestore.com http://www.obsscrew.com There aren't many pictures on this site but a whole lot of links to generally weird stuff. All of it is taken from real newspapers from around the country, so it's all clean, safe and for the most part, real. Plus, there are links to numerous gossip columns, Associated Press news wires, and you can buy assorted weird and obscure magazines. http://www.dontblow.com Unlike the previous site, this site is not clean, safe or for the most part, real. This site is nasty and quite proud of the fact. It makes an honest, God-and-digestion-fearing chalupa ashamed to be related to such a site. Although that's not to say I contain blood as the chalupa in question may or may not have been. No sir, I'm full of sour cream, lettuce and tomato goodness. In any case, this is not a family site. http://www.fark.com This is my personal favorite from the list. It's not as well organized as it could be, but each of its links is categorized. It draws stories from CNN, Fox and other capable news locations. It also introduced me to satire sites other than The Onion — Satyr and Satire Wire. Of all of the bloodychalupa-linking sites out there today, this is the yardstick by which to measure the rest.

Monday: All Actors Theatre of Louisville in the Labor Day Special with the English Alternative Theatre. 8 p.m. at Swarthout Recital in Murphy Hall. Free. Festival to feature international performer Special to the Kansan By Amy Cummins "Holy Sh'tt Janice Perry is coming to KU!" is the hot topic for students interested in contemporary performance artists. The department of theater and film's Performance Resource Center and Laboratory has brought Janice Perry for a week-long residency. Perry, an internationally acclaimed performer, is the focus of the third annual Labor Day Festival, sponsored by the organization, the Hall Center for the Humanities and the English department. The highlight of the week will be Perry's live performances at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow and Saturday at the Inge Theatre in Murphy Hall. Perry will present "Holy Sh*t! Stories from Heaven and Hell," which she describes as a humorous journey through western spiritual life via Aphrodite, Joan of Arc, Andrew Lloyd Weber and the Lone Ranger. The performances of Perry, who has been touring in Europe and the United States since 1982, should both entertain and challenge the University audience. A German reviewer described Perry as "a hurricane onstage." Her work integrates such diverse elements as American vaudeville, cabaret, stand-up comedy, opera and popular music within a framework of European-style "kabaret." Students also have a chance to work one-on-one with Perry. A writing-to-performance workshop with Perry, "Larger Than Life: Creating Autobiographically Based Performance," will be held Saturday at the Inge Theatre. Fourteen students, half from outside the theater department, will take an originally written text to the workshop and work with Perry to create a two- to four-minute performance piece. Sharon Sullivan, a doctoral candidate and lecturer in theater, is coordinating enrollment for the workshop. Sullivan said Perry was approachable, down-to-earth and loved teaching and talking with students. The third event in conjunction with Perry's residency is a "Kabarett Kafe Klatch" From 4:30 to 6 p.m. tonight at the Inge Theatre. Perry will be present while Angellika Czekay of the University of Wisconsin at Madison speaks on "Janice Perry's Cabaret in the Context of Contemporary Feminist Performance." Czekay will show videos of Perry's performances, offer commentary and engage the audience in conversation about feminist performance and Perry's work. Tickets for "Holy Sh*t!" stories from Heaven and Hell" are available at the Murphy Hall Box Office at 864-3982. Tickets are $6 for students and senior citizens; $10 for public. — Edited by Warisa Chulindra 1000 Contemporary performing artist Janice Perry will be at the University of Kansas to present a series of workshops and performances through next week. Contributed photo English Alternative Theatre to kick off season with short plays By Amy Cummins Special to the Kansan The English Alternative Theatre begins its season with a Labor Day Special. The free event will involve a staged reading of eight 10-minute plays from the Actors Theatre of Louisville. The special, directed by Paul Stephen Lim, English professor, takes place at 8 p.m. on Monday at Swarthout Recital Hall in Murphy Hall. One of the eight plays is Making the Call, which features Jim Hartman, English department chairman, and Megan Dillingham, Overland Park graduate student, the 1999 winner of the Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship and the National Acting Champion at the Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival. The second event in EAT's season will be the production of new one-act plays by KU students, from Sept. 22 to 24, at the Lawrence Arts Center, a co-production with the Card Table Theatre. Bunnies was written by Michael O'Brien, Winnetka III., senior. O'Brien described his one-act play as an entirely fictional company looking back at what Hugh Hefner might have been like as a naive young man, before he started Playboy. The Man Play was written by Matthew Gaus, Lawrence senior, and will be directed by Will Averill, Lawrence senior. Gaus said his comedy was about a guy named Tom, living with the manliest man in the world. The man teaches Tom lessons about manhood that affect his relationships with his best friend and with women. These two participating entries in the American College Theatre Festival were originally written in Professor Lim's Plawwriting II class last spring. the production of Whiteout, a full-length play by Alan Newton, Montgomery, Ala., doctoral student, will be from Oct. 19 to 22 at the Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St. Whiteout, which is also a participating entry in the festival, was first seen in a staged reading in April. Newton said Whiteout involved a reunion of three people in their thirties who were high school friends at an all-white private school in Alabama. "They get trapped in a freak southern snowstorm and revelations ensue," he said. EAT will also be busy during the spring semester. Lim will direct the annual "Final Four" competition, with one-act plays by KU students. The "Final Four" takes place in March and allows audience members to vote for their favorite plays. Tennessee Williams' classic play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof will be produced at the Lawrence Community Theatre in April, under the direction of Piet Knetsch. - Edited by Gleisson Abreu Solid Hardwood $199 FUTONS $199 Steel Futon & Frame = $139 --- Bunk Futon & Frame $239 Abdiana 816-421-5577 2001 Grand Ave. Kansas City MO (20th & Grand) 913-642-8500 8871 W. 95th St. Overland Park (95th & Antioch) 913-451-2552 7579 W. 119th St. 119th & Metcalf (North of Super Target) BROOKLYN HOTEL 20th & Grand • 816-421-5577 Spicy Red Wine Sauce!!
