Student killed in car accident
By Jason Krall writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas student was killed on his way home for the weekend Friday when his Toyota sedan crossed the median on Kansas Highway 10 and was struck on the passenger's side by a pickup truck.
Jonathan Langdon, Overland Parl sophomore, appeared to be heading east near Kansas Highway 7 when his black 2000 two-door sedan veered across the median and into oncoming, westbound traffic.
Langdon was pronounced dead at The
University of Kansas Medical Center in Overland Park shortly after the accident, which occurred at 11:55 a.m.
The Kansas Highway Patrol is still investigating what caused Langdon's vehicle to cross the median into westbound traffic. The Kansas Highway Patrol report on the accident stated that it is unknown whether Langdon was wearing his seat belt.
Highway Patrol officers blocked both lanes of westbound traffic for more than two hours after the accident.
Todd Cohen, assistant director of University Relations, said Langdon was a painting major in the School of Fine Arts.
Langdon's sister, Kathy Meneely, said Langdon enjoyed channeling his artistic talents through caricatures and cartooning. He held the school record in the long jump at Blue Valley High School in Stilwell, where he graduated in 1998. He was also interested in mountain climbing and snorkeling, she said.
"Everybody loved Jon." Meneely said. "He was a very good friend and very good-hearted."
Robert Cain, 45, Overland Park resident and the man driving the Ford pickup, was listed in fair condition at Overland Park Regional Medical Center. His condition was upgraded to good on Saturday.
After he collided with Langdon, a van
struck Cain's pickup, but that driver was not injured, police said. The Olathe Fire Department assisted highway patrolmen at the scene.
No citations have been issued.
No citations have been issued. Chancellor Robert Hemenway offered Langdon's family condolences in a statement.
"We are deeply saddened to learn of this terrible tragedy," he said. "On behalf of the entire University community, I express our deepest sympathies to Jonathan's family and friends."
Visitation for Langdon will be Tuesday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at W L Frye & Son Mortuary, 105 E. Loula St., Olathe.

Group canoes to increase awareness of Kansas River
Bv Matt Merkel-Hess
Kansan staff writer
The Friends of the Kaw took to the Kansas River this weekend to raise awareness of the limited recreational access to the river and its poor water quality.
More than 350 people participated Saturday and Sunday in the group's sixth annual canoe float from the Perry Dam to Riverfront Park in Lawrence.
Windy conditions didn't stop the kayakers and canoeists from having fun, although most agreed they wouldn't want to get out of their boats.
"It's a sewer," said Richard Gramza of Olathe. "And a shallow one at that."
the group hopes to increase access to the river, which has only three boat ramps.
Sallie and Michael Farmer, Friends of the Kaw members from Emporia, said they enjoyed canoeing the river because it was one of the only places for primitive camping in the state. But they usually have to get on and off at places where bridges cross the river — something they'd like to see changed.
Friends of the Kaw started in the mid-1990s to protest sand dredging on the river. Now
"Sometimes getting to the river is more dangerous than being on the water," Sallie Farmer said.
State senator Sandy Praeger spoke at a sandbar upstream from the Lecompton bridge — one spot the group is eyeing for a boat ramp — during Saturday's float. Praeger, who represents Lawrence and Douglas County, said she'd like to see access to a clean river, and that the two go hand in hand.
"Greater access leads to a greater call for clean water," Praeger said to the group.

American Eagle chooses Ottawa for facility location
Lawrence loses 150 to 300 jobs, $45 million center
By Matt Mermel-Hass
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Plans for a new American Eagle Outfitters Inc. warehouse and distribution center in Lawrence took a turn south last week to Ottawa.
The Lawrence project, announced by American Eagle eight months ago, was estimated at $45 million and would have been the largest private economic development in Douglas County history.
Instead of developing an 88-acre farm field in Lawrence's East Hills Business Park, the company plans to buy the former Our Own Hardware distribution center in
A 402,000 square-foot building was planned to open in May 2001, but delays involving zoning and drainage slowed the project.
Ottawa. The vacant building had been listed at a cost of $6.5 million.
The company planned to start in Lawrence with about 150 employees and expand to 300 — many of them entry-level positions starting at $8.50 an hour.
Ottawa City Commissioner
Blaine Finch said the job market was tight in Ottawa and he hoped University of Kansas students would consider taking the jobs.
Finch said he thought Ottawa was chosen because of its proximity to Interstate 35 and its available work force from nearby KU, as well as Ottawa and Baker universities.
"I don't think 20 miles is out of the question for anybody," he said.
Ottawa made no effort to compete for the distribution center.
"They came looking for us," Finch said.
The 289.200-square-foot building in Ottawa has been vacant for two years. American Eagle plans to
expand it by about 100,000 feet.
The Ottawa City Commission and American Eagle will meet today to discuss a tax abatement.
Marty Kennedy, Lawrence city commissioner, said he thought the move was pure economics.
"They had a piece of property and a building available," Kennedy said. "They could start up a distribution center faster at a more economical price."
Although the distribution center will not be coming to Lawrence, an American Eagle retail store will open downtown in January 2001 at 619 Massachusetts St. after renovations are completed.
WHAT IT MEANS
Edited by J. R. Mendoza
What it means: Lawrence loses the opportunity for 150 to 300 jobs and a new $45 million center.
What happened: American Eagle Outfitters Inc. decided to buy an existing building in Ottawa for its new distribution center instead of building one in East Lawrence.
What's happening next:
American Eagle still plans to open a retail store in downtown Lawrence at 619 Massachusetts St. The store is being renovated and has an opening planned for January 2001.

Students report more respect after weight loss
By Melissa Davis writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
"When I was heavier, people weren't nearly as friendly," he said. "They didn't look with interest. They would look and think. 'Wow, that kid is chubby.'"
Piers Shorrock now gets the respect he has always deserved.
Shorrock, Minneapolis, Minn., freshman, lost more than 50 pounds and said that he was treated better. He said that people would ignore him and disregard what he said and how he felt before he lost weight.
"I started riding my bike every day, and the weight just came off," he said.
Shorrock lost the weight by what he considers an accident.
John Wade, counselor at Counseling and Psychological Services, said there were societal rewards for people who fit the stereotype of acceptable weight. He said overweight people might be discriminated against, which would ultimately affect their self-esteem.
Shorrock is not alone when it comes to being mistreated by society because of his weight.
"Someone who is overweight might have to deal with rejection," he said. "Having to deal with this barrier of being mistreated would be hard to deal with on a daily basis."
"People do have their bias about the overweight," he said. "People look at the overweight, and they think it is their own fault. It would be hard to have to walk around and be judged every day by strangers on the street."
Wade said he thought people discriminated against overweight individuals because obesity was something they could not hide.
Nancy Besa, public relations manager for Weight Watchers, said she thought people who were overweight were blatantly ignored because of the view society had of them.
"People that are overweight are not waited on as quickly and not taken seriously in the business world, as if their opinion doesn't matter," she said.
Besa said that about 55 percent of American adults, or 97 million people, were overweight.
"It's interesting how people can discriminate against the overweight because over half of adults in America are overweight," she said. "It leaves me to wonder, 'Where is this discrimination coming from?'
Joel Hamis, Prairie Village senior, said he thought his recent weight loss might give him an advantage as he looks for jobs after graduation.
"I think employers are less likely to hire people that are overweight because they get viewed as lazy," he said.
Hamis lost more than 50 pounds last year by running and watching his diet. He said that people who hadn't seen him in a while commented on his weight loss.
"When I see guys that were in my (fraternity) house, they make comments like, 'Hey, where's the rest of Joel?'" he said.

Court says professor can withdraw lawsuit
A federal court magistrate recommended that a KU journalism professor be allowed to withdraw his discrimination case against the University, but recommended that he pay nearly $6,000 in trial costs to the University if he decided to refile the case.
Mike Cuenca, assistant professor of journalism, filed a motion in June to withdraw his lawsuit, which alleges that the University discriminated and retaliated against him because of his Filipino-American ethnicity. The University opposed that motion, wanting him to either continue with the case or dismiss it without the option of refiling.
If the U.S. District Court judge follows the magistrate's Sept. 25 recommendation, Cuenca would be able to dismiss the case and refile it later. If he did so, however, he would be required to pay the University $5,882.45 for legal expenses. Cuenca said in an e-mail that he wasn't sure yet what action he would take.
"On the one hand, I'd really like to proceed with it, so if the district judge rules that I have to pay KU's fees, I may exercise my right at that point to withdraw the motion and proceed with the existing case." Cuenca said. "It's all up in the air now."

ROCKFORD, III. — Dozens of antiabortion protesters at a rally yesterday said they supported the devotion of a Catholic priest accused of crashing into an abortion clinic here and chopping away at the building with an ax
Protesters support priest's attack on clinic
"I don't agree with his methods, but I appreciate his heart," said the Rev. David Broom. He joined a human chain of about 1,000 protesters outside a Catholic church.
The rally at Holy Family Church in Rockford had been scheduled long before Saturday's attack. Amid the singing, people could be heard talking about the Rev. John Earl, who is charged with burglary and felony criminal damage to property for the attack Saturday morning at the Northern Illinois Women's Center. He was freed after posting $10,000 bond.
Earl, 32, was stopped inside the building by its owner, who fired two shotgun blasts to scare him away. The clinic wasn't open and there were no injuries.
Police have not disclosed a possible motive for the attack on the clinic.
The Diocese of Rockford said the priest's activities have been restricted while it investigates the allegations.

Residents of Mexico Belize flee hurricane
CHETUMAL Mexico — Coastal residents of Mexico's Yucatan peninsula and northeastern Belize fled their homes yesterday as the dangerous core of Hurricane Keith came ashore, bringing strong wind and torential rain
With the storm packing 125-mph winds, scores of people in Chetumal, a bayside city of 130,000, abandoned their homes. Many live in lowlying areas, in shacks made of wooden slats and cardboard.
Mexican authorities set up 15 shelters and evacuated 800 people from high-risk areas in the region, about 190 miles south of Cancun.
The U.S. government issued a travel warning to Americans in Belize because of extensive flooding, the State Department said. Peace Corps volunteers and U.S. government employees in nonemergency jobs were moved out.
There were no reports of deaths or injuries by midday in the state of Quintana Roo, where Chetumal is located, said Jose Irabien, an official from the governor's office.

Sorority members caught streaking
By Rob Pazall
writer@kanson.com
Kansan stuff writer
Streakers bore all last weekend in Chancellor Robert Hemenway's yard.
The women said they'd lost a bet, the KU Public Safety Office said.
Three members of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority were caught streaking on campus early Sept. 23, and one of them was caught in the chancellor's yard.
Katie Eagan, Kappa Kappa Gamma president and Tulsa, Okla., senior, said she was aware of the event but said it had never happened before at her house.
"We don't condone that type of behavior." Fagan said.
Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office said the women could face indecent exposure charges. He said incidents like this usually involved some sort of a birthday or prank.
“It's something intended to be harmless, but it might offend someone else.” Mailen said.
Sellards Scholarship Hall is located next to the chancellor's house, and its residents know too well about streaking in that area.

"When fraternities have a birthday or a party, naked men will splash in the chancellor's fountain." Hearting said
Hearting said she and other women at Sellards Hall responded to a buzz system. It comes in a series of long and short buzzes that alert them when they have a phone call or when someone comes to visit. But Hearting said they also had a buzz for streakers.
"When a girl sees a streaker, she hits the naked man buzz." Hearting said. "Everyone comes down, hoots and hollers at him, and then goes back to her room."
Hearting said she hadn't seen anything yet this year and she had never seen any female streakers.
"We only have naked guys here." Hearting said.

Boaters say river needs on-ramps
Continued from page 1A
Laura Calwell, president of Friends of the Kaw, compared the three access points for the 172-mile-long Kansas River to having only three on-ramps for the Kansas Turnpike. She said the group would like to see a boat ramp every ten miles.
"The Kansas River is one of the best-kept canoeing secrets in the United States," she said.
"It was fun," she said. "I came because it's the environment and we should take care of our resources."
Luwana Listener, a Haskell sophomore from Alberta, Canada, was on the river for the first time this Saturday.
"There's a perfect opportunity to keep millions in the state." he said.
Mike Calwell, former president of Friends of the Kaw and current president of the Kansas Canoe Association, said that millions of dollars left Kansas for river tourism in states such as Arkansas and Missouri, and that more access would increase tourism.
At the end of the float, KU athletes helped pull the canoes out of the water. On Saturday, eight members of the women's swimming team volunteered their time.
Sophomore swim-team member Kristi Misejka said she volunteered because she wanted to get out in the community and help.
She said the Friends of the Kaw seemed concerned about the water quality of the river — water that she wouldn't want to swim in.
"Everybody is smiling even though the wind has been blowing all day." she said.

Nontraditional students make up 20 percent of the KU student body, but Deena Hardie, Lawrence senior, said it was still easy to feel alienated.
Enter KU Nontrads, an organization for students who commute, have children or are older than the remaining 80 percent of students.
Formerly called the Organization of Adult Knowledge Seekers, the group changed its name last semester to increase recognition.
"We're kind of large but quiet," Hardie said, adding that the group had 400 people on its e-mail list.
Coming back to school after a few years away was difficult.
Hardie said, and it was easy not to feel part of the campus buzz. She said nontraditional students often didn't participate in campus
ADiversity CAMPUS
events, so the organization was a way for them to get involved and connect with the student body and their peers.
Hardie said the goal of the group
was to improve the University experience of nontraditional students.
She said nontraditional students faced challenges at the University, but that the University had recently helped to improve their college experiences.
She said new classes at the Edwards Campus were helpful for Kansas City students who commuted to Lawrence.
Elaine Warren, public relations director for the Edwards Campus, said the campus traditionally had been for graduate students, but that degree-completion programs were in the works.
Warren said if the idea was approved by the Board of Regents for next fall, students would be able to start biology or English degrees at Johnson County Community College and finish the last two years at the Edwards Campus.
Edwards Campus offered four undergraduate classes this semester, Warren said, and planned to offer five in the spring.
The new Hilltop Child Care Center and the increased availability of tutoring services were also improvements for nontraditional student life. Hardie said.
KU Nontrads is primarily a social organization, Hardie said.
The group meets every Wednesday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. for lunch at Alcove E in the Kansas Union. They have a party every semester and also are planning a Halloween party this fall.
In addition, Hardie said the organization also volunteered in the community. It helps sponsor the Hannah's House Foundation, 2518 Ridge Court, which provides a home-like setting for single mothers. Members also are involved in community outreach organizations such as Habitat for Humanity.

Stephens said the number of students using the library between 8 p.m. and midnight had increased from almost none to about 100 people since the new hours began six weeks ago, and expected to see more
"KU students have wanted a late-night study facility for years. I am delighted that the libraries can now offer such a facility," said Keith Russell, dean of libraries.
Alex Tenuta, Chicago junior, said he thought the late-night hours were a great idea and the late hours would allow students to work during the day and study at night.
The money needed to keep Anschutz open 24 hours is provided by tuition dollars intended for library services and collections. Korb Maxwell, last year's student body president, worked with the library administration last year to determine how the library could best meet students' needs.
Late night study was a priority on Maxwell's list.
Kent Miller, library facilities officer, said that providing a safe place for students totudy in the early morning hours had been a top priority.
"Anschutz, with its open floor plan, is the most suitable library facility," he said.
Only the third floor of Anschutz is open between midnight and 8 a.m. The study area has computers, photocopiers, study tables and comfortable seating. The computers are connected to the library's network and provide access to research databases, the Libraries' catalog and the Internet.
While the bulk of the books and journals housed in Anschutz will not be accessible to
late-night scholars, basic and specialized reference books in the sciences and government information are shelved on the third floor.
Between the hours of midnight and 8 a.m., access to Anschutz Library is restricted to current KU students, faculty and staff. Library services such as reserve and circulation are not offered. Although there is no staff available, two security guards are on duty in the building during these hours.
For students who are wary about walking to or from the library after dark, Safe Ride offers transportation from 11 p.m. to 2:45 a.m. every night. Students can call 864-SAFE and must have a valid KUID.

Clarification of U.N.'s role is necessary
That the United States should step out of the United Nations was one of the most radical statements I have read lately. Some students' support of the position surprised me a lot. So let's get the facts — or the history — straight.
The United Nations was created based on the ideal of collective security developed by the German philosopher Immanuel Kant in the 18th century. Coming out of World War I, most of the world's nations wanted to prevent another war; that's why the League of Nations was created in 1920. Why did it fail?
First, the United States didn't join. Second, the League of Nations didn't take a firm stand in the 1930s against the countries that would later be key players in World War II — Japan. Germany and Italy.
The United Nations was created with the same original goal as the League of Nations, the same goal that the League of Nations failed to achieve, and that was peaceful coexistence. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt developed the Atlantic Charter, which was the starting point for what would become, in 1945, the United Nations.

ogonim@aansan.com
Why do you think that the 25 countries that fought World War II alongside the United States — the Allies — agreed to the Atlantic Charter proposed by Roosevelt? Maybe because they wanted the United States to be a member of the newly born alliance.
Every single country knew that the United Nations counted on the United States' presence and participation in order to succeed. They wanted the United Nations to have a different faith from that of the League of Nations.
If you think about that, it isn't such a surprise that the U.N. headquarters are in New York City. The United States did it all. Roosevelt even named this new alliance the United Nations.
Now some people say that the remodeled United Nations would threaten the United States' sovereignty. It appears to me that those people don't grasp the purpose of a Security Council with five countries having veto power. Only the United States, Great Britain, France, Russia and China have this power. If the United States doesn't like something, it can veto it. It is as simple as saving "no" to humanity.
The United States did it in 1996 when it vetoed then-Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali's second term, overruling the other Security Council members, even though the United States' debt to the United Nations was $1.5 billion at that time.
And by tradition, it is a Republican tenet to ignore people's support of the United Nations, claiming that the United Nations will threaten our sovereignty or saying that many United Nations members don't respect human rights. The Republican Congress in 1998 even tried to advance its agenda by attaching anti-abortion amendments to the bill that President Clinton had sent to Congress in order to pay dues to the United Nations.
The Charter for a Global Democracy is just a new excuse by those who never wanted the U.N. to exist in the first place. I admit that some people will buy it, even though this charter will only help in accomplishing the original objective of the United Nations, which is collective security.
But please don't say that Castro is behind this or that the United Nations is a luxury hotel for retired communists — this is a joke. It seems like McCarthyism, a period in which people who didn't have sound arguments to justify their beliefs just had to say that their rivals were communists. Castro is the next in line, so don't give life to someone who's already half-dead.
one who Communism is gone. It is what it is: only history. The United Nations, on the other hand, is the future.

Responsibility is not determined by age
I am 20 years and 363 days old. In two days, something magical is going to happen. I am going to be able to purchase and consume alcohol. Of course, it's not just because I say so, or I won a contest or anything. In two days, I turn 21. It's almost too much to handle.
When I wake up from my slumber two days
from now. I will know so many things. I am
going to know how much I can drink in a specified amount of time. I am going to know when I've had too much to drink. I am going to know how to give my keys to a friend when I know I'm going to drink. I am going to know that I need to behave during a sporting event if I drink. To make a long story short, I am going to know how to be responsible when alcohol is present.
As a 20-year, 363-day-old. I don't know any of
these things. Such things don't exist in my mind. If someone tries to tell me these things, it goes in one ear and out the other. But in two days, it's finally going to stick. And everyone will know it because I am 21. And what a grand day it will be.

I am very tired of hearing people talk, argue, debate about David Pritchett and the Alcohol Beverage Control and the detainment and the charges and the Fourth Amendment and blah blah blah blah blah. Yes, the law says you must be 21 years old to consume alcohol, and those who are underage and get caught will suffer the punishment of disobeying the law. Well, my personal opinion is, you can take that law and feed it to my dog.
When the clock turns over from 11:59 pm to midnight, making someone 21 years old, the Budweiser fairy does not descend from above and sprinkle magic alcohol droplets on you and whisper into your ear, "You will be responsible now!" When a person turns 21, a) he already knows how to be responsible, b) is in the process of learning how to be responsible or c) will learn later how to be responsible. Nothing about your age can determine whether you are ready to experience the life that contains a beer after work and a glass of wine with dinner. What determines it is your maturity, your responsibility and most of all, your common sense.
I have no qualms about arresting people who are drunk, underage and causing disturbances or destruction. They obviously don't have the responsibility to handle what they are doing. That is where the ABC and the University's concerns should lie. To say they want to curb all underage drinking is ridiculous. They need to be looking not for people who are underage but for people who act underage. A drunken 21-year-old is just as likely to be a problem as a drunken 20-year-old. Adding one year to your age doesn't change your maturity level.
As for the ABC and the University, I hope this little rant of mine teaches you one thing. The ID may say 20 years old, but the person in the picture might be more responsible than you. I appreciate the safety you bring to this campus and your concern for our well-being.
So, Mr. Pritchett, I hope all goes well for you in your case at the Kansas Supreme Court. You weren't causing destruction, just drinking a beverage. Good luck to you.
But remember, we students don't always act our age.

Editorial
Language not always the barrier
Both University and students are responsible for enhancing learning.
Language barriers are common between teaching assistants and students in some University of Kansas classes. Although prospective TAs must pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language, a written test of proficiency in English, the Test of Spoken English and the Speak Test, a spoken test administered by the University, some students continue to have problems.
Some TAs are not fluent in the English language, but there are also many instances where students go into the classroom and, without giving teachers a chance, automatically put up a wall simply because they do not speak English on the same level.
Universities throughout the country bring in international students as graduate teaching assistants because, in many cases, a person from another country may have a better understanding of a topic because he or she is from a certain country or region. The university is only trying to heighten the learning experience for students by increasing diversity and bringing different aspects of subjects into the classrooms.
However, when the student is prevented from learning because of a communication problem, the University should take action to correct the problem. There are ways of doing this, such as raising the requirements of the English proficiency tests.
The University takes pride in the fact that it is a diverse campus. There are students and faculty from more than 100 nations around the world. That allows for an outstanding academic experience that one might not have the opportunity to relish elsewhere.
The University should reconsider revising the spoken English language requirements in order to prevent this problem. However, students should realize that they are fortunate to have the exposure to other cultures and points of view and go into the classroom with an open mind.

Letters to the editor
Letters to the editor Abortion comments distract from sexual assault issues
As a member of the KU Choice coalition, I feel urged to write this letter in response to the caller from "Free for All," who so blatantly criticized this organization for participating in the protest against Terry Allen.
The coalition does not "promote the slaughter of millions of unborn, helpless babies," as the caller unintelligently pointed out. What we do support is a woman's right, and when these rights are being taken away, then it is our duty to make people aware of this.
Terry Allen is a good coach, and he is a good man, but his actions last spring were unjust and should offend every woman on campus. How can running extra laps make up for the fact that a woman was sexually assaulted? Shouldn't these football players get a punishment that fits the crime instead of being let off the hook so easily? The young woman who was assaulted had her rights infringed upon, and nobody is doing anything about it.
I find it funny that my father wanted me to go to school at the University of Kansas because of its lack of assaults and violence. Yet when it does happen, people pretend that it doesn't.
Jayme A. Aschemeyer Denver freshman
I am very disturbed by Jay Buzhardt's recent letter concerning Robert Nunley, professor of geography. Not only is Jay ignorant of Nunley's actual policies, but he also clearly has no understanding of the values of education. First of all, how does one make education objective? Tests and quizzes are the obvious answer, but who chooses the test questions? Who designs the grading scale? Perhaps the professor? Literature, history and political science tell us that neutrality is impossible. Educators are subjective. Students must learn not only what is taught but also what is not taught to truly understand a subject.
Professor's methods may seem strange, but they are effective
Secondly, as many disgruntled scholars spout, the purpose of a university is to educate, not to evaluate with grades. Did Buzhardt ask any of the many who have taken a class from Nunley? The class is about learning. Everyone does his or her best job to teach and grow, as well. Few of Nunley's students can claim that they did not receive a grade they deserved. And I doubt anyone has ever failed a course taught by Nunley.
Poor Jay Buzhardt. What would he do if his doctor had earned his or her undergraduate degree from St. John's University? St. John's doesn't teach any "real" subjects but only has students read classical texts and discuss them. Are reading and discussion really what we want in education?
most learned and learning-focused of professors. I can say, quite objectively, that Numley's view of education is infinitely superior to that of Jay Buzhardt.
I, and any student of Nunley, would gladly board an airplane or "get under the knife" of any pilot or surgeon who had taken a class from this

Sen. Sam Brownback claims that media violence is the root problem to be solved.
Guns, not media, are responsible for violence in American society
What makes the American culture of violence unique is not movies, nor music, nor video games. These facets of Americana are, in fact, exported to the four corners of the earth and are increasingly part of the popular culture abroad. Yet this does not seem to pose the same "public health risk" as it does here in the United States. Why? Because the real threat to public health comes not from the media, but from the millions of guns in America that Brownback and his fellow Republicans have refused to regulate.
If Sen. Brownback really wants to "appeal to the better angels of our nature," he should work towards ridding the United States of handguns, not movies and music.

Not all Asian students offended by iokes in Mr. Wong cartoon
I am a full-blooded Chinese citizen who was born in America. I am personally not offended by the Mr. Wong ministeries. I personally feel that the University Daily Kansan needs to collect the opinions of many, not just one person.
If a person can't take a simple joke, then hey, I don't know what to say. I would have to say that the article was blased and to a certain extent stereotypical because the article claims that all Asians are "offended," but I am not. The article did not analyze both sides of the story and is poor journalism. I even have a Mr. Wong poster on my door.
By the way, my last name is Wong.

Cartoon contains stereotypes personally offensive to Asians
The article in the in the Kansan's Sept. 27 issue dealt with a Web-based cartoon strip located on icebeb.com that exploits stereotypes of Asian Americans. This personally offends me because I am a full-blood Vietnamese. I have spent my entire life here in America, and I can tell you that not all Asians are "yellow with a humched countenance." During my lifetime, I have been fully aware of the reactions that some people hold towards people of different ethnicities and race whether it be Latino, African American or Asians
I'm sure other people can relate to when they were teased in elementary school for their appearance; the only difference was that children knew it was wrong to slender an African American and yet failed to recognize the same treatment toward Asian Americans.
The time it takes to end racism and ignorance has been long but it has also progressed since I was a child.
I am supposed to say, "I can understand your point of view," but when it comes to the topic of race, I can't. It's not right to associate certain races or ethnicities solely based on appearances or by what they eat. And to add on to the matter of eating dogs, cats or whatever other four-legged animals, I'll end it right here: Some of us Asians are vegetarians.

Sometimes "intolerance" is necessary to boost tolerance
I am writing in response to John McCool's Sept. 25 column entitled "Tolerance groups foster intolerance." McCool, in a circular and specious argument, reasons that groups which speak out against intolerance are themselves intolerant. In particular, he decries groups which protested the Boy Scouts of America's decision to bar homosexuals from membership. After all, if these groups are so tolerant, they would have allowed the Boy Scouts of America to quietly hold their own opinions, right? Wrong.
If we lived in a world where all actions were considered to be of equal worth, his argument might hold some value. But fortunately, the majority of American citizens recognize that actions that harm the physical, emotional or spiritual well-being of another person or group are not to be encouraged. In other words, there are situations where "intolerance" is not only acceptable: it's an imperative.
Americans hold a variety of religious and personal viewpoints, and we have the legal right to express our opinions, even offensive opinions. That's why hate groups such as the Ku Klux Klan are allowed to rally in public places. However, that does not mean that we should not speak out against actions that we feel are harmful. Although I acknowledge the right of the Boy Scouts of America to limit their membership, I find its decision to ban homosexuals from membership to be insulting and mean-spirited.
McCool would like to pretend that the Boy Scouts' decision is not intolerant but merely an expression of principles. And he laments that gay-rights groups "simply won't tolerate any person or group who believes homosexuality is wrong." Ah, there's the rub! Notice that gay rights groups are asking for respect and equality and are not accusing nongays of being "wrong" or morally bankrupt, as McCool accuses of gays. The first request is an expression of compassion, while McCool's position is definitely, in my opinion, harmful to the spirit.

Interceptions fumbles mar solid first half
By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
NORMAN, Okla. — Just like Kansas' play selection in its 34-16 loss at No. 14 Oklahoma on Saturday, there was very little middle ground for quarterback Dylen Smith. He was either incredibly good or incredibly bad.
Remarkably, Smith managed sometimes to buy time to survey the field when he should have been sacked. But then he would throw an errant pass. He showed his arm strength with deep bombs that sailed high and far, but too often they were intercepted. Smith's gifts often

takes. But everybody made mistakes."

Kansas eventually led 16-10 early in the second quarter, but Smith's accuracy disappeared. He had already thrown his first interception on Kansas' opening possession. Plenty of mistakes followed, and they were costly.
With 11 minutes left in the first half, Smith fumbled on Oklahoma's 12-yard line. The Sooners marched 82 yards on eight plays to take a 17-16 lead.
Smith was quick to accept the brunt of the blame for the turnovers, six of which resulted in Oklahoma scoring drives.
"If we don't have those we're in the game." Smith said. "The first couple, I was trying to forget. But when you have five interceptions and two fumbles, it's kind of tough to forget."
Kansas was obsessed with the long ball. After Ross' touchdown

What Smith will question for a while is some of his choices — he had seven turnovers. Five came on interceptions and he also fumbled twice while trying to scramble. When he was on — which was often in the first half
— he showed an ability to run and pass effectively in heavy pressure and complete critical third-down passes, which kept drives alive and silenced the rambunctious Oklahoma crowd of 74,811.

"We said that we had to go for the big play," Allen said. "That was the nature of their defense."
The nature of Kansas' defense was to not nurrender. There were plenty of times it could have caved for all the time it was on the field. Often it was forced to return to action after short Kansas drives that ended in turnovers. But the defense kept Kansas in the game, even without junior defensive end Ervin Holloman, who left the game late in the first half because of an injured knee.
Oklahoma quarterback Josh
Heupel completed 29 of 43 passes for 346 yards, but he only had one touchdown pass and the majority of the yards came on devious shovel passes and short looks downfield.

Although coach Mark Francis didn't like how the Kansas women's soccer team played Friday, Kansas still defeated Iowa State 3-1 at SuperTarget Field in Lawrence. Yesterday, Kansas performed well against No. 3 Nebraska but lost 3-0, again on the Jayhawks' home turf.
Playing well doesn't necessarily mean winning.
"I was worried about their speed up front but I think I played hard and respected their talent, and we played really well against them," she said. "I'm proud of the team."
But the Cornhuskers, 12-0 and 3-0 in the Big 12 Conference, were too much
"The they are a physical team, very aggressive and very fast," Francis said of Nebraska. "And I thought we really matched that rhythm today."
Sophomore defender Pardis Brown agreed.
Kansas came close to scoring in the 77th minute when senior forward Colleen Colvin fired a solid shot in the Nebraska penalty area, but Nebraska goalie Karina LeBlanc dived and stopped the ball. LeBlanche hasn't allowed a goal in more than 600 minutes.
for the Jayhawks. Nebraska outshot Kansas 25-8, and outcornered the Jayhawks 16-0.
"I like the win, but I didn't like how we played," Francis said. "We've played ten times better than that this season and lost. We've done that two or three times."
Friday's 3-1 victory against Iowa State was the opposite situation — a solid win with poor play.
The first goal came after Colvin went up against the Cyclones' defenders in the Iowa State penalty area and the ball popped in. Senior forward Lindsey Horner was there to finish.
"I was glad to get ahead early especially against Iowa State," she said.
Kansas built a comfortable lead in the first half.
"This is a really important game for our team."
Less than a minute later, Horner sent a cross pass to sophomore forward Carmel Kaplinger, who drilled it into the Cyclones' goal with her head. Colvin, with junior midfielder Melanie Schroeder's assist, added a goal in the 24th minute and made it 3-0.
Friday's victory made Francis the all-time winningest coach in the program's six-year history, with a 14-15-1 overall record. But he said that winning eight games last year and six so far this year didn't represent the success of the program.
"If we win more than eight games this year, then I'll think it was a big deal." Francis said.
Kansas will return to SuperTarget Field this weekend when it faces Texas Tech at 4 p.m. Friday and Colorado at 1 p.m. Sunday.The matches will be the Jayhawks' final appearances to a home crowd this season.

'Hawks lose chance for turnaround
NORMAN, Okla. — Kansas should be 3-1, possibly ranked and in a pretty good position to tackle Kansas State this weekend after its game against Oklahoma on Saturday.
Instead, the Jayhawks are 2-2 and hobble into next Saturday's game against the No. 4 Wildcats in Lawrence.
Kansas was on the verge of breaking a long Big 12 Conference road-losing streak against Oklahoma in the second quarter. The Jayhawk offense was producing early for a change, including a pretty 77-yard, first-quarter touchdown pass from Dylan Smith to Roger Ross. Although Smith's three first-half interceptions didn't help the situation, the Jayhawk quarterback was predominately on target to his receivers before halftime.
The Kansas defense was making its NCAA-leading pass defense ranking legitimate against a potent Sooner offense. Pass-happy Oklahoma had 88 passing yards and just 5 rushing yards in the first quarter. The 'Hawks were still keeping Oklahoma in check in the second quarter when Carl Nesmith recovered a fumble on the Oklahoma 26.
The offense progressed to the Sooner 18-yard line leading 16-10 in the second quarter, and the inevitable repetition of "Boomer Sooner" suddenly wasn't flowing from Oklahoma band instruments.
Then came a Smith fumble. The momentum had shifted, and Oklahoma scored the game's remaining 24 points. That fumble spelled Kansas' fate.
Turnovers were obviously devastating for the 'Hawks. Although the Jayhawks battled the nation's No. 14 team throughout the game, seven turnovers wore them down. Kansas had 216 net-passing yards in the first half, but could only muster 42 in the second half.
Oklahoma was primed to start its return to prominence with its Big 12 opener against Kansas. The 1950 national championship team was honored during the game, as was the 1985 championship team a week ago against Rice.
Even former Sooner coach Barry Switzer, who led Oklahoma to NCAA titles in 1974, '75 and '85, watched the game from the press box Saturday.
Kansas was supposed to be another Oklahoma victim on its way back to the success of the Switzer era. The Jayhawks served that purpose well, but Oklahoma didn't have to put much effort into it. Turnovers ruined a career-high 258 yards for the versatile Smith and an opportunity for the Jayhawks to be noticed nationally.
Now, a wounded Kansas team must regroup and use what tools it had against Oklahoma in the Sunflower Showdown against K-State.
After the loss to the Sooners, the Jayhawks will probably be regarded as just another meal on K-State's menu at Memorial Stadium this Saturday.
But if resilient, the 'Hawks proved against Oklahoma that at least they might give the Wildcats indigestion.

Kansas volleyball falls against stellar Texas Tech team
Two Lady Raiders challenge Jayhawks

Texas Tech found itself head and shoulders above Kansas on Saturday night at Horeisi Family Athletic Center.
The Jayhawks fell in five games to the 15-1 Red Raiders, feeling the sting of Tech's 6-foot-7 Colleen Smith. Smith, a senior middle blocker and outside hitter, recorded a match-high 24 kills.

"You pretty much just have to go around
Myatt played keep-away with Smith all night.
"We were trying to stay away from their tall girl (Smith)." Myatt said. "And she was always hanging around on my side."
Smith's overpowering presence kept Myatt from being a factor in the first game — Myatt found herself with only one kill at the beginning of game two. However, her lone first-game kill proved to be the 700th of her career, and she racked up enough in the next four games to finish with a team-high 19 kills.
But Smith wasn't the lone star for Texas Tech. Sophomore outside hitter Melissa

Ray Bechard

McGehee came off a seriously turned ankle in the first game to pull out 23 kills and a .543 hitting percentage.
"We forced her (Smith) into some errors, but McGehee was the one that really cost us," said Ray Bechard, Kansas coach. "McGehee came back from that injury right away."
Danielle Geronomy, senior middle blocker, agreed that game four was the key.
"We played well and we got an opportunity in game four, but we faded." Bechard said.
McGehee turned in eight kills in game four when Kansas had the game lead at 2-1, putting the match into a fifth game and rally scoring.
"In the fourth game we just couldn't finish," Geronymo said. "We just have to find a way to finish in those difficult games."
"I just want to get well to help the team," Geronov said. "I feel that if I could get a

little bit better then I could help so much more."
Although the 'Hawks now fall to 11-4 and 2-4 in the Big 12 Conference, Geronymo said she saw a solid competitive effort from her teammates during their second five-game loss in three days.'
"I think we did a great job passing, even though they are a strong serving team." Geronymo said. She said it was the tiny errors that hurt the team.
Those tiny errors will have to become even smaller Wednesday when the Jayhawks travel to Manhattan to take on No. 22 Kansas State at 7 p.m. at Ahearn Field House.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 2). You may discover something new in your neighborhood this year. You may also go to visit distant shores. This ought to be interesting! In November, start with a list of things you want to accomplish. You won't have to go far to find adventure in December. Tell someone who knows you well your crazy dreams in February. If you work together, you might make a few come true by June. Mind your manners to gain wealth in July. Keep a secret about money in September.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7.
Having to go back to work on such a nice doy is a pity. If you can find a way around it, you probably will. Take care. There might be something only you can do, so don't drop that out. Don't spread yourself too thin, or you won't do a good job at any of it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6.
A carefully calculated risk could pay off, but your timing has to be perfect. Better late than early, and it's okay if you have to wait until tomorrow. You have a good chance of winning, but the path is full of potholes. Watch where you're going.
Gemini [May 21-June 21] — Today is a 7.
summi (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7.
The problem is one of communication. You think you're communicating well, but somebody else doesn't seem to get it. Instead of doubting your abilities, be patient. The other person is liable to switch to your side just when you least expect it.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
Work looks kind of tricky. A breakdown is possible, so take care. Something you've recently learned may not work as in practice as it did in theory. Don't be too embarrassed. Just make the correction and try again.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
You should do pretty well, although it may not go the way you expected. You're learning all the time, so watch and listen as somebody does a big turnaround. Keep your money in your pocket until after the dust clears.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Home and family require a lot of attention, and that can be irritating. Hold your temper and tongue, and you may learn something interesting. A change you thought would never happen could finally occur. Don't give up hope.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is an 8.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
You're plugging right along, making an even greater impression than you realize. It's not just what you know; it's also what you're learning. You can do just about anything, especially if you can save money and keep a secret.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
Money's available, but it's not steady. Something about it is iffy. You might even think you have more than you do. Better count it before you spend it. You might decide you can do without that new gadget.
*status* (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
You're sensitive and caring, but a little eccentric.
You may not know what you'll do next. You're keeping the others guessing. That's part of the fun,
but show compassion. One person deserves an explanation.

C
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
Recent changes may impact your plans. Review the project before plunging boldly forward. Work you're involved with could bring a lot of revenue, but make sure you're on the right track before proceeding. Better safe than sorry.
Lion
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.
You're fascinating, and you have an interesting person charmed. Actually, you may have two or three. Avoid confusion and keep them as friends. They'll sort themselves out. Hold off on a major purchase. You might change your mind.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.
Expect a little confusion as you're being pulled in several directions. Instead of complying with everybody's wishes, figure out what would work best for you. It might be different than any of the options you've been offered.

Olympic games end; U.S. tops in medal tally
SYDNEY, Australia — Gezhagne Abera of Ethiopia won the Sydney Olympics' final event — the 26.2-mile marathon — striding into the stadium just a few hours before it was taken over by the robots on stilts, the Frankenstein kangaroo and the giant shrimp on bicycles that helped Sydney cap its games.
But there were a few important notes:
The U.S. boxers and freestyle wrestlers found themselves shut out of Olympic gold for the first time in decades.
The U.S. "Dream Team" survived another bad dream to capture the gold in an 85-75 victory against France — two days after beating Lithuania by just two points.
Yesterday, France cut a 12-point deficit to four with four minutes left. But Vince Carter double-pumped before dunking with 1:40 left and the Americans scored nine of the game's final 12 points.
OLYMPICS
Emily deRiel of Haverford, Pa., stunned even herself by winning the silver medal in the first Olympic women's modern pentathlon.
The struggling U.S. user's water team pole lost to italy and finished sixth in the tournament.
Sydney 2000
The United States led in the
final medal tally, collecting 97 (39 gold, 25 silver and 33 bronze). Russia was second with 88 (32, 28) and 28), and China third with 59 (28, 16, 15). Australia was fourth, with 58.
Greco-Roman gold medalist Rulon Gardner, who ended the 13-year undefeated streak of Russian super heavyweight Alexander Karelin, carried the U.S. flag during the closing ceremony.
Olympic rules demand that athletes with international experience must wait three years after changing nationality before competing in the Olympics, or get permission of the country they leave.
Athlete-residency rule could be modified
弓
SYDNEY, Australia — A rule used by Cuba to keep at least five athletes out of the Sydney Olympics may be revised before the 2002 Winter Games, according to top Olympic officials.
The rule is meant to prevent nations from luring away one another's top athletes.
International Olympic Committee vice president Anita DeFrantz of the United States also said the organization would review the rule, as did committee legal director Howard Stupp.
"We want to find a balance between athletes being able to move to new countries ... and athletes moving to another country in an artificial manner," Stupp said.
Many countries routinely waive the
rule, but Cuba used it to keep several athletes out of the Sydney Games.
Volleyball teams surprise U.S. with performances
The women's team finished fourth, its secondbest showing in seven Olympics, next to the bronze in Barcelona.
SYDNEY, Australia — The U.S. women's volleyball team struggled for years in the shadow of the men's team. The Sydney Games changed that dramatically: The women soared beyond everyone's expectations, while the men sank further than anyone imagined.
The men were a disaster, taking 11th place and joining Egypt as the only teams to go 0-5. It continued a distressing trend for the United States, which won gold medals in 1984 and 1988 but fell to bronze four years later and ninth in Atlanta.
BASEBALL
MIAMI — Philadelphia Phillies manager Terry Francona was fired yesterday after a season in which his team finished last in its division and with the second-worst record in the National League.
Phillies' manager fired after another losing year
The team scheduled a news conference before yesterday's season finale against the Florida Marlins.
General manager Ed Wade informed Francona of the decision yesterday, Francona would have managed the closing game.
Francona managed the team to a losing record in each of his four seasons in Philadelphia. He had a 285-362 record entering yesterday's game.

Sooners triumph on Jayhawks' errors
Kansas offensive lineman Tim Bowers can only watch as Oklahoma running back Seth Littrit rellung for a pass late in Saturday's game. The Sooners completed nearly 75 percent of their passes in their 34-16 win against the Javahawks. It was the Javahawks' second loss of the season. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN

A sign at the entrance to Owen Field in Oklahoma's Memorial Stadium warns would-be trespassers that the field is monitored and an alarm will sound and the police called if anyone enters the field without proper authorization.
With 11 minutes to play in the second quarter, the Sooners probably thought about calling the police to evict the Kansas Jayhawks, who were intruding on the Sooner homecoming game and threatening to steal a victory.
The Jayhawks led 16-10 and had just recovered a fumble on the Oklahoma 28-yard line. The Jayhawks had been moving the ball well and were outgaining the Sooners high-powered offense.
But four plays later, the 'Hawks fumbled and Oklahoma recovered the ball.
At that point, Oklahoma regrouped and hand-cuffed the Jayhawks the rest of the game, dominating offensively and defensively and scoring 24 more points while holding the Jayhawks scoreless — pulling away for a 34-16 victory.
The Jayhawks committed seven turnovers in the game, and Kansas coach Terry Allen said the turnovers made the difference between winning and losing.
"Obviously, the turnovers were our demise." Allen said. "We had a chance. We did some good things defensively. Offensively we did some chances."
Junior wide receiver Harrison Hill had a good game, making a couple of nice catches along the sideline and finishing with eight receptions for 144 vards, both team highs for the game.
Allen said the Jayhawks knew they had to perform well offensively because of Oklahoma quarterback Josh Heuel's ability to move the ball.
"We thought we had to put some points on the board offensively." Allen said. "Because we knew defensively, even as well as we could play, that with Heupel back there, they were going to get theirs. The turnovers were our nemesis."
Allen said that as the Jayhawks missed opportunities and fell farther behind, the Sooners were able to concentrate on defending the pass.
"Eventually, they were able to just kind of strictly go to their zone-belt scheme," Allen said.
Sophomore defensive back Matt Jordan made his first start of the season. In an attempt to control Heupel, the Jayhawks used a nickel package — five defensive backs rather than four, with Jordan as the nickel back. Jordan said the 'Hawks used a nickel package almost the whole game.
"I just tried to make the best of my opportunity getting out there," he said. "They were pretty wide-open. We knew they were going to come out and pass."

Jonathan Beasley threw three first-half touchdown passes, and Kansas State (5-0, 1-0 Big 12) rolled to victory against Colorado (0-4, 0-1) Saturday. The Buffaloes only trailed 20-13 in the second quarter before the Wildcats scored three straight touchdowns to put the game out of reach. The final score was K-State 44, Colorado 21.
No. 1 Nebraska 42. Missouri 24
Colorado's highly recruited freshman quarterback Craig Ochs, who didn't want to take a redshirt year, replaced Bobby Pesavento in the second quarter. Ochs completed 15 of 24 attempts, gaining 208 yards with one touchdown pass and one interception.
Eric Crouch ran for 110 yards and a touchdown and threw two touchdown passes, helping the Cornhuskers (4-0, 1-0) hold off the Tigers (1-3, 0-1) Saturday night. Bobby Newcombe set a school record when he returned a punt 94 yards for a touchdown. Missouri gained 492 yards against the Cornhusker defense, but sophomore quarterback Kirk Farmer broke his collarbone late in the third quarter. Missouri kicked a field goal three plays after Farmer's injury, closing the gap to 35-24 but never recovered after Farmer left the game.
No. 13 Texas 42, Oklahoma State 7
Major Applewhite passed for 291 yards and three touchdowns, and Texas (3-1, 1-0) overwhelmed Oklahoma State (2-2, 0-1) Saturday afternoon. Longhorn wide receiver Roy Williams caught a 96-yard touchdown pass, and Kenny Hater yanked for 122 yards against the Cowboy defense, which previously had allowed the fewest rushing yards of any Division I A school — 30.3 per game. Oklahoma State trailed only 10-7 in the third quarter but faded down the stretch.
Texas A&M 33, Texas Tech 15
Texas A&M fullback Ja'Mar Toombs scored two touchdowns in the final seven minutes, breaking open a close game. The Aggies (3-1, 1-1) scored 20 points after Red Raider turnovers. Texas Tech (4-1, 0-1) came into the game ranked No. 11 nationally in passing, but Texas A&M intercepted three Red Raider passes. The Aggies also blocked a punt.
Iowa State 31. Baylor 17
Cyclone running back Ennis Haywood ran for 241 yards and two touchdowns, his fourth straight game with more than 100 yards. Iowa State (4-0, 1-0) led 31-3 at halftime, converting three Baylor turnovers into 17 first-half points. Baylor (2-2, 0-1) has now lost 14 consecutive Big 12 Conference games.

Town displays postcard exhibit
The Associated Press
MONTEZUMA — Giant, multicolored quilts seem to be hanging from the walls as you enter the Stauth Memorial Museum exhibition hall. Apparent though are Decoying
One past winner is Stan Herd, known for his crop art and large murals like the stagecoach scene on the side of a Dodge City bank.
A closer look reveals that they're 600 small paintings by Kansas artists, giving the viewer a unique cross-section of how others see the state.
"Kansas has a lot to offer in landscapes. These are about whatever inspires them," Legeletier said. "The people are extremely talented and creative with what they can do with a small size."
The museum, located more than eight hours away from Lawrence, is showing the Kansas Artists Postcard Series XXIII by the Association of Community Arts Agencies of Kansas. The exhibit opened Sept. 10 and runs through Sunday, Oct. 15.
The work of 16 of this year's winning artists was reproduced on postcards sold by the arts association. Former association director Romalyn Tilghman had the idea years ago after she saw small paintings in big city museums.
It's the only time that this year's 26 winners chosen from 184 entries will be on display with winners of all past years. After Montezuma's exhibit, only this year's winners will be shown in museums and schools around the state.
Getting the nod to host the exhibit this year was a boost for the 4-year-old museum, which has several exhibitions a year plus a permanent collection of objects from around the world.
Museum director Kim Legleiter says the exhibit is a way to get people to come to the museum in this southwest Kansas community of about 900 people. The paintings in this art exhibit are small: 4 1/4 inches by 6 inches, mounted with a white matte and enclosed in a silver frame.
The museum will have wildlife photographs from the Natural History Museum of London next September — one of four stops for the display in this country.

Runners turn in best times
The Kansas men's and women's cross country teams continued to improve with a strong showing at the Oklahoma State Jamboree on Saturday in Stillwater. Okla.
"This was a really competitive race here in Stillwater," said Coach Stanley Redwine. "Both teams ran well, and I feel like it was a total team effort from the beginning of the race to the end. As a team, we ran smart, and I like to see that out of our runners."
In the women's competition, Kansas finished seventh out of 16 teams. Texas Christian took the team championship, while host Oklahoma State placed second and Texas Tech finished third.
freshmen Laura Lavoie, and Lauren Brownrigg led the way for the Kansas women.
For the third consecutive meet.
Both Lavioe (19:02) and Brownrigg (19:21) career-best times in the 5K event. The race's top individual performance was turned in by TCU's Gladys Keitany, who turned in a time of 17:16.
"Once again Laura and Lauren were our top-finishers," Redwine said. "I thought they ran a smart race and I continue to see improvement for us on the women's side."
The men's team, at full strength for the first time this season, finished fifth out of 20 teams. Abilene Christian won the men's team title, closely followed by Arkansas and Oklahoma State.
Redwine said that the men's performance on Saturday was an indicator of a great second half of the season.
Junior Brent Behrens placed 22nd, posting a time of 25:31, and senior Charlie Gruber placed 34th in his first meet of the season.
"It was great to see Charlie back for us today, and he had a huge impact for us as far as our team's score," Redwine said. "It's always good to do well against your conference foes, but to do well nationally was a step ahead for us as a team."
Kansas' next meet will be on Oct. 14 at the Chili Pepper Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark.

All of this hype has come before coach Kelvin Sampson has seen his team practice once this fall, but ESPN said the Sooners have the best backcourt in the Big 12.
Most major sports publications list the Sooners as the preseason favorites to finish second in the Big 12 Conference behind Kansas. The Sporting News has Oklahoma ranked No. 23 in its preseason poll, while ESPN The Magazine has it at No. 21. Blue Ribbon Yearbook ranked the Sooners as the No. 11 team in the country.

Sampson said his team would lean on its guards to carry the load this season.
"We'll replace Eduardo's numbers," Sampson said. "I don't know I've ever coached a kid who anticipated what I was going to do as well as Eduardo did. He had a great grasp of our offense and our defenses. He was unselfish and took that feel and utilized it with some of our new players to keep them out of trouble. That's experience, and I don't know how you replace that."

"Our experience lies in the back-court," Sampson said. "Because of that, I would think that we'll go through our backcourt a lot early in the year."
While Oklahoma is stable at the guard positions, question marks abound surrounding the men in the paint. Third team All-America selection Eduardo Najera graduated after serving as a four-year starter for the Sooners. With his absence, the Sooners lost more than just his 18 points-per-game average. They lost their leader.

Washburn edges Kansas in softball championship

Move over Cardinals-Royals: A new I-70 series developed on the diamond this weekend.
An outstanding defensive effort in the late innings from Washburn propelled the Lady Blues past the Jayhawks 2-1 yesterday at Jayhawk Field in the championship game of the Jayhawk Invitational.
Kansas soophomore right fielder Leah Hansen singled in freshman pinch runner Dani May for the Jayhawks' only score of the day in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Several rallies that would have tied the game or put Kansas ahead came up short, including a basesloaded situation in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Despite the loss, Hansen said the fall exhibition tournament was beneficial.
"The game was good for us because we learned about each
other in our first tournament," she said.
The host Jayhawks opened the tournament with a 7-5 loss to Division II Washburn on Saturday. After gaining a 5-1 lead in the fifth inning, Kansas gave up six runs during the next two innings and lost the game.
The two victories boosted the morale of Washburn, coached by former Jayhawk Kim Newborn.
"Now we've got the whole winter to work on our game," said Newbern, who played third base from 1982 to 1994. "But these wins show us the level at which we are capable of playing."
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said she realized that Washburn, 4-0 in thr tournament, played some quality games, but she also knew that the Jayhawks needed to be consistent on offense.
She said that the fall season was merely a time of learning for the spring, when the 'Hawks will have a
ematch with Washburn in Topeka
"The fall season is about improving each day out," Bunge said.
A series of injuries to junior centerfielder Shelly Musser and senior outfielder Erin Garvey forced the Hawks to rely on letting different players fill a variety of positions.
Kansas was victorious against the Cavaliers of Johnson County Community College in a 5-0 shutout of the junior college powerhouse.
Bunge said she was impressed with Saturday's offensive performances from junior infielder Courtney Wright, junior outfielder Leah Tabb and junior catcher Katie Campbell in an 8-4 victory against Dodge City Community College on Saturday.
Tabb said she was content with the team's 500 showing this weekend.
"It was good for us to play together for the first time," she said. "Overall we did well offensively and defensively."

Number of minority students drops
WWW.KANSAN.COM
Lack of peers adds to decline in many groups
By Laita Schultes writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The student body of the University of Kansas is becoming less diverse racially.
A report released by the Office of Institutional Research and Planning show that the percentage of non-international minority students at the University has declined in the last year, continuing a decline since 1998.
According to the report, the number of Native-American students on campus is down 5.1 percent since last fall, and the number of African-American students showed a 3 percent drop.
Courtney Bates, Chicago sophomore and president of the Black Student Union, said she knew African-American students who entered KU last year and were disappointed.
"Many students felt like there weren't enough Black students," she said, adding that some of her friends left the Midwest bound for Texas or Florida.
As Bates suggested, the problem with minority numbers seems to stem from retention rather than recruitment. The number of minority freshmen this year was up 13.9 percent from last fall.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway agreed and said retention was one of the keys to improving minority numbers.
The University would like to see those freshmen stay through graduation. Season Titus, Newton senior, is the student coordinator for HAWKLink, a recruitment and retention program for minority students. She said this year's freshmen could impact future minority recruitment.
"We have to be concerned about
retention, and we have to do a better job with retention," Hemenway said. He also said that minority students needed to better utilize the services available to them.
Few people would like to see the numbers go up more than Hemenway, who came to KU in 1995 when minorities constituted 8 percent of the freshman class. The number is now up to 9.7 percent of the freshman class, but Hemenway said he still was not happy.
"We want to have a university that is reflective of the population of the state and the population of the country," he said.

Residence halls to enter Revue
Asian
Black
Hispanic
American Indian
By J.D. McKee writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Residents of Templin, Hashinger and Lewis halls are teaming up to enter the traditionally all-greek Rock Chalk Revue, but they'll be facing some additional challenges.
Ann Foltz, Abeline sophomore and one of the project's directors, said she attended last year's show with her roommates and they decided they wanted to participate.
The most daunting obstacle the halls must overcome seems to be history. No non-greek living organization has performed in the show in about 10 years.
"The scholarship halls and residence halls usually don't even try because of the lack of knowledge and funds." McNeil said.
Stephanie McNeil, executive producer of the Revue, said it wasn't common for nongreks to enter the competition.
try because of the lack of knowledge and funds." McNeil said. However, recruiting enough people from the residence halls also has been difficult.
"We haven't openly advertised yet," Foltz said. "It's been word of mouth, but people we've talked to have been really excited about it."
"I would like to have as many as possible," she said. "Even if we had a hundred people, there wouldn't be a cutoff."
Ashley Meagher, Golden, Colo., sophomore and a Templin project director, said about 20 people had volunteered, but she was hoping for more.
Communication among the residence halls has been another problem. Meagher said.
"It's hard because you don't know anybody," she said. "The greek system has chapter meetings and we don't have anything like that. There's never a time when I can say, 'I need somebody to do that.'"
To help this, Meagher said there would be an informational meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday on the seventh floor of Templin Hall for anybody interested in participating.
Money is also an issue for the halls.
"This is something new the halls are doing so there's no money set aside." Poltz said.
Meagher said they planned on keeping costs down as much as possible.
"It's hard going against a living organization with a set thousands of dollars," she said.
"It's something we know we can do a good job at," she said. The show will run March 8 to 10.

Drive entices with burritos, doughnuts
By Melissa Davis
Kansan staff writer
This year's Lawrence Community Blood Center blood drive is giving students that donate some serious incentives.
Those contributing to the drive, which will be today through Friday, will receive a free goody bag with a T-shirt and coupons for a free Chipotle Mexican Grille burrito and a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
Kendra Knight, Baldwin freshmen, said she thought the free snacks were a clever way to attract college students to donate their blood
This year's theme, "We Need You to Bleed Crimson and Blue," is in memory of Laura
"I think it would act as an incentive," she said. "It's good because students don't realize that they're doing a great favor."
Leftwich, the KU student who died in a car
wreck on Interstate 70 in August.
"At each location, there will be cards available for students to sign that will go to the Leftwich family, telling them that so many people valued their daughter," said Amanda Storm, donor recruitment representative for the Lawrence Community Blood Center.
Storm also said she thought the drive was a good opportunity for students to see their blood used in the Lawrence community because the community blood center was the only provider for Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Community blood centers supply 99 percent of blood for Kansas City and Topeka hospitals, she said.
Storm said the center collected about 400 pints of blood from about 600 students last year and hoped to collect even more this year.

Drug and liquor violations rise major crimes fall at University
Bv Rob Pazell
By Rob Pazel
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Although major crimes have gone down, the report said the number of referrals from University officials for drugs and alcohol had gone up. Referrals to the police for liquor law violations had risen from 226 in 1980 to 257 in 1999. Drug referrals also have jumped from 71 in 1998 to 95 in 1999.
The most notable drop was the number of burglaries, which dropped from 343 in 1997 to 188 in 1999. Rapes on campus also dropped, falling from 7 in 1997 to just one in each 1998 and 1999.
The Clery Act Annual Security Report said crimes such as rapes, burglaries and assaults had declined on campus.
Drug and liquor violations have risen on campus, although reports of many other crimes have declined, according to a report released Friday.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, encouraged students to lock their doors to keep their property sefe. He said he was pleased that the number of burglaries had gone down in the residence halls.
The KU Public Safety Office and the Dean of Students Office annually release the statistics for major crimes and arrests in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, which was passed in 1991. President Clinton amended the act in 1988 to include all crimes motivated by hate or bias. The report also includes statistics for the previous three years.
Major Chris Keary of the KU Public Safety Office, said the report gave students, faculty and staff members information they needed to protect themselves on campus.
"The offenses listed in the Clery Act are crimes we are required to report." Keary said. "These numbers are a small amount of what is reported."
Keary said although it was a good resource, the report wasn't complete because it didn't include crimes such as theft or vandalism.
In addition to crime statistics for the Lawrence and Edwards campuses, the report contains information about policies, security procedures and crime prevention services and programs.

Administrator receives award for leadership
A KU administrator who is working to improve Internet technology has been honored with a national award.
Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor for information services, received the 2000 EDUCAUSE award for leadership. He is working to develop Internet 2 technology with the Great Plains Network, a group of research universities in seven states working to build a faster and more reliable Internet.
The new technology will let Internet providers guarantee enough bandwidth for effective video conferencing and other online interaction that the Internet is not equipped to handle, Niebaum said.
"We expect it to be the next big explosion in Internet use," he said.
The award recognizes Niebum's work with the Great Plains Network and his role in creating KANREN, a network that connects Kansas schools and libraries to electronic resources worldwide.
Niebaum served as director of Academic Computing Services for the University of Kansas from 1981 to 1999. Before earning his undergraduate degree from the University in mathematics education in 1961, he worked on the University's first computer system, an IBM system he used to begin studying computer programming.
Niebaum will be recognized at a national EDUCAUSE conference of information technology administrators in Thursday, Oct. 12, in Nashville, Tenn.

Spring break program seeking volunteers
Alternative Spring Break applications for 2001 are available in the Alternative Breaks office or the Center for Community Outreach office at 400 Kansas Union. They also can be downloaded off the Alternative Breaks Web site: www.ukans.edu/~albreaks.
Applications are for volunteers and site leaders for trips focused on issues such as hunger and homelessness, conservation, cultural diversity, health and wellness and education.
The breaks are designed to educate students about different social issues and provide hands-on community service experience.
Holly Worthen, Alternative Spring Break co-coordinator said the program could educate students in a number of ways.
"Alternative Spring Break is a great way for students to learn about social and environmental issues on a national level and then learn how to begin doing
active service in their own communities," she said.
Students interested in learning more can attend information sessions at 7 p.m. tomorrow and Tuesday, Oct. 10, at the English room in the Kansas Union.
Site Leader applications are due at 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 20, and volunteer applications are due at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 10.

Doctors separate twins; surgery lasts 31 hours
SEATTLE — Seven-month-old twins who were born joined from the breastbone to the hip were separated after 31 and a half hours in surgery.
Charity Mae and Kathleen Faith Lincoln were in critical condition yesterday at Washington's Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center following the operation during the weekend.
Dr. Richard Molteni, medical director at the hospital, described the surgery as highly complex. He estimated that the girls had an 85 percent chance of survival in the first month after surgery. Their prospects were expected to improve after that
The procedure involved at least 10 doctors and began at 7:30 a.m. Saturday, Charity was out of surgery at about 1 p.m. Sunday, followed an hour and a half later by Kathleen.
The twins will need more operations to reconstruct and repair portions of their bodies. They are expected to remain hospitalized for about a month.
Their parents, Greg and Vaneice Lincoln of Olympia, have three other children.
Abortion protesters ponder priest's deeds
ROCKFORD, III. — Abortion opponents who gathered for an annual protest were forced to ponder the actions of a Roman Catholic priest accused of ramming his car into an abortion clinic and chopping away at the building with an ax.
The rally Sunday at Holy Family Church in Rockford was scheduled long before the incident, but it commanded much conversation among the approximately 1,000 protesters.
The Rev. John Earl is charged with burglary and felony criminal damage to property for the alleged attack Saturday at the Northern Illinois Women's Center. The clinic wasn't open and there were no injuries. He was freed after posting $10,000 bail.
The attack drew the ire of an Illinois women's organization that said the church and anti-abortion groups must take responsibility for violent acts against clinics and doc
tors who provide abortions.
Majority of new vehicles not very fuel-efficient
WASHINGTON — While a handful of small cars are getting 40-plus miles per gallon, the vast majority of new vehicles coming into showrooms get about half that, the government's latest automobile fuel economy statistics show.
For the second year, a hybrid gas- and electric-powered vehicle — the two-seater Honda Insight — topped the list of biggest fuel misers with 64 mpg combined city and highway driving among 2001 model vehicles.
The luxury sport import Ferrari 500 Maranello was the biggest guzzler (8 city and 13 highway) followed by the Lamborghini Diablo (10 city and 13 highway).
The huge popularity of sport utility vehicles again drove down the overall numbers of the more than 800 cars, trucks and vans listed in the annual fuel economy statistics released yesterday by the Environmental Protection Agency.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Truck and taxi drivers blocked roads and bridges throughout Yugoslavia yesterday to start a protest blitz by opposition forces trying to drive President Slobodan Milosevic from office.
Milosevic's foes have vowed to bring the country to a standstill with general strikes and road blockades. But the buildup to the campaign has been slow and cautious, raising questions about whether the opposition possesses the momentum and stamina needed to carry out their threats.
Milosevic says challenger Vojislav Kostunica failed to achieve an outright victory in the Sept. 24 elections and that a second round is needed. The opposition, backed by the West, insists Milosevic rigged the voting.
Less than a week remains before Sunday's scheduled run-off elections.

Brewery can't revive outside dining
By Matt Merkel-Hess
Kansan staff writer
City officials have asked the Brown Bear Brewing Co. to remove the railing that once surrounded its sidewalk tables, signaling an end to outside dining at the restaurant.
The Brown Bear Brewing Co., 729 Massachusetts St., could not meet a city regulation requiring certain downtown restaurants with outside dining areas to do at least 70 percent of their business in food and non-alcoholic beverages. Thus, the outside dining area now must be officially removed.

"My understanding of the 70 percent rule is that it was placed with the intent of keeping outside dining areas from turning into beer gardens," he said.
COMMISSION MEETING
Most downtown restaurants are required to do at least 55 percent of their business in food and non-alcoholic beverages. Brown Bear has not had outside dining since last summer, when it almost lost its drinking establishment license. The owners admitted they did not meet either the 55- or the 70-percent

requirement.
In order to its license, the restaurant came up with a new business plan and changed the menu. Rodenburg said. Recently, the restaurant opened for lunch.
The food-sale requirement was enacted in 1994 to keep the downtown from becoming a bar district, said Ray Hummert, city clerk.
"The council wanted a mixeduse business district with the emphasis on restaurants rather than just bars." Hummert said.
Establishments opened before the regulation was enacted do
not have to comply, Hummert said.
Rodenburg said he thought the intent of the rule was good, but it hurt businesses opened after 1994.
"I think it's a little unfair that
half the restaurants downtown have to do it, and half are exempt because of the grandfather clause," he said.
Rodenburg said he originally thought it would be hard to meet the requirement, but he's been
pleased with the support for the food menu, especially from KU students.
"We're a brewery and we sell a lot of beer," he said. "But our food side is really strong."

Senate seeks student input in spending reserve funds
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Student Senate has more than $400,000 in students' money, and it's trying to figure out what to do with it.
Senate treasurer Greg Wiley said the Senate reserve account had a balance of $438,861.50 at the end of last year. Whenever a student organization does not use all of the money Senate allocates to it, the leftovers go into the reserve account. The student activity fee provides the money Senate hands out to different groups.
The reserve account has been growing during the past few years. The addition of about $40,000 of unspent money from last year puts the account past the $400,000 mark.
Ben Walker, student body president, said there was a sense of urgency to spend the money because the state of Kansas would keep the interest earned on the account.
"If we kept the interest earned on the account, there would be no necessity to spend it," he said. "I think we need to look at it because students that have been paying into the account the last several years are going to be graduating soon, and they're not going to see the effects of it if we just sit on the money."
Wiley said although Senate was looking to spend the money, it wanted to save some of the funds for emergencies.
"We like to keep a minimum balance of $150,000 for unexpected situations, like a few years ago when we bailed out KU on Wheels because it was having financial trouble," he said.
In Spring 1996, Senate loaned $140,000 to KU on Wheels. Wiley said that was the last time the reserve account was used for anything substantial.
Walker said senators discussed ideas for spending the money at Senate's leadership training seminar in August. Ideas included providing information kiosks around campus, expanding Saferide and KU on Wheels, providing more email kiosks, extending Wescoe Terrace's hours and financing campus-beautification projects, he said.
Walker said that Senate also was looking for input from students about what to do with the funds. Senate will compile a list of ideas and discuss it at a meeting this semester, he said.
"It's not a decision we want to make hastily." Walker said. "We want to come up with some initial
THE RESERVE ACCOUNT
■ What happened? If Student Senate gives money to a student organization and that group does not spend it all, the remainder goes into Senate's reserve account. Last year's unspent money brings the account to $438,861.50.
What it means: The state of Kansas keeps the interest earned on the account — so the University earns nothing by not spending the money.
What's next? Senate is looking for ideas for ways to spend the money and will discuss possible projects at a future meeting.
project, but there will be much more discussion about this."
He said the process for allocating the reserve fund would be the same as the process for allocating money to organizations. Senate would have to pass a bill to finance any projects, and then Walker would have to approve it. Chancellor Robert Hemenway has the final say on any Senate decisions, but Walker said that wasn't usually a concern.
"Everything is subject to the chancellor, but they've never really questioned any of our expenditures of student fees," he said.
Fall in minorities a national trend
Continued from page 1A
While the number of Caucasian students continues to rise — up from 76.7 percent in 1995 to 81 percent of this year's student body—the overall number of minorities on campus continues to fall. The only minority numbers that have increased since 1995 are Asian American, from 2.9 to 3 percent, and Hispanic American, from 2.1 to 2.3 percent.
— Edited by John Audlehelm
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions and scholarships, said the struggles of minority recruitment were not unique to the University but were part of a national trend. He said African-American students especially looked to traditionally African-American universities.
Bates said the University of Kansas' environment, which is different than the high schools or neighborhoods of many minority students, could hurt minority recruitment.
Hemenway acknowledged that minority recruitment was a nationwide problem but said that should not be an excuse.
"I think it's a Midwestern thing," she said. "There isn't much to
"KU shouldn't be saying, We're like everybody else," he said. "KU should be saying, How can we make KU better than other institutions?"
recruit."
Efforts are being made to make the University better at minority recruitment.
HAWKLINK, a minority recruitment and retention program that previously was only a Hawk Week event, now is a year-long program, Titus said. And Cerveny added that a multicultural student recruitment board was being formed and that the search for minority scholarship funding was ongoing.
Hemenway summed up the University's goal.
"We want to see a richly diverse student body," he said. "If we want that kind of campus, that kind of university, then it's everyone's responsibility."

Senate service helps students locate tutors
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Students who want to be a tutor or find a tutor now can turn to Student Senate instead of the Student Development Center.
Senate is initiating a tutor referral service to replace the service that the Student Development Center discontinued in May. The center does, however, provide tutoring for select classes through a new program.
Michael Roessler, graduate senator and chairman of the Senate academic services task force, said anyone who turned in an application to Senate would be put on the tutor list. Applications are available at the Senate office in the Kansas Union.
"We're basically trying to provide a service that's comprehensive, so that a student could find a tutor for any course." Roossler said.
The tutor referral list is not yet available, Roessler said, but will be compiled and published when about a dozen tutors have signed up. Four applications have been turned in so far.
Roessler said Senate would not supervise tutoring beyond providing a list of tutors, so the quality of a tutor would not be guaranteed.
"Anyone that turns in an application will get put on the list, so we're not guaranteeing the quality of the tutor," Roessler said. "But if we get lots of complaints about one tutor, there would be the possibility of removing them for the list."
Rossier said he thought poor quality probably would not be a big problem.
"What I've experienced in the past is that people can't fake it," Roessler said. "Tutors are usually pretty honest about their capabilities."
The referral service recommends that tutors turn in a transcript and letter of reference. The list would reflect whether the tutor turned in those items, but students would not be able to see the documents. Roessler said.
Mary Ann Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said the center decided to replace its tutor referral service with its own tutoring program to reduce confusion. The center now hires and trains tutors for specific classes in chemistry, biology, math, economics and Spanish.
"I was uncomfortable with our office's association with tutors who we had no idea if they were qualified or not," Rasnak said. "If a student had a bad experience with a tutor, they might have thought that we had bad tutors, but really we had no control over those tutors. If they signed up, they were put on the list. It was always a kind of buyer-beware thing."
Rasnak said the center's referral list included about 30 to 50 tutors last year. She said there was no way to know for sure how many students used the service to find a tutor, although about 50 signed an information book that the center kept to assess the program. Providing information to the book was not required.
Roessler said that he hoped to get as many students as possible on the referral list and that he thought two dozen tutors in 30 subjects would constitute an effective program.

Perspective United States needs strong missile defense
If you've read these pages for the past few weeks, it would be difficult not to get the impression that George W. Bush was some gunlsinger with a happy nuclear trigger finger and testosterone squirting out of his well-endowed ears. This is unfortunate.
All one has to do is pick up a newspaper (something people assume writers who write about such topics do on a regular basis) to learn that Bush has proposed that the United States unilaterally
— by itself, without securing commitment to do the same from other countries — reduce its nuclear arsenal. At the same time, Bush has proposed developing and deploying a defense against incoming nuclear missiles as soon as possible.
Such a radical, morally sound departure from Cold War nuclear policies usually would have the folks down at the local chapter of Food Not Bombs jumping in their bare feet for joy. But Bush, you see, is a Republican, therefore students of the self-professed "open-minded" persuasion find their thinking closed on the matter.
They object to Bush's less-threatening, more-protective nuclear posture on the most spurious of grounds:
It would violate the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty — a treaty signed in 1972 with a country that no longer exists (the Soviet Union). Nevermind that the United States could legally withdraw by giving six months notice.
Andrew Marino columnist opinion@kansan.com
It would spark a new arms race. With whom? Russia feeds its soldiers dog food (when not killing them aboard submarines), is ravaged by alcoholism and disease, and nurses a struggling economy the size of Denmark's — all while its missiles rot in their silos.
China (for now), North Korea, Iran and Iraq are on a whole other level. They will attempt to acquire or build their arsenals no matter what the United States does, so we need a defense against them.
These countries could just smuggle a bomb in, using nothing more sophisticated than a suitcase. Granted. But do you see them spending millions developing super-sneaky Samsonites? They do, however, badly want to get missile technology — China just steals it from the United States. If the countries build weapons with the only conceivable purpose being to level or threaten to level American cities, America should build a defense against those weapons.
We should rely on diplomacy instead. This would be nice in Super-Duper Fairy Land, but in our world, bad guys have guns, too. It's possible that people who advance this argument have not done much thinking on the subject at all, so I will do it for them.
What is the point of diplomacy? The goal is to assert our influence and get our way (democracy, human rights, free trade). The object is the same for all other countries. China, North Korea and Iraq want to influence the world around them, to make it safer for their interests (communism, tuggerg, repression).
The reason these countries want weap ons is to make their diplomacy stronger and ours relatively weaker. When China wants to invade Taiwan, or North Korea to attack South Korea, they want a United States free of missile defenses and vulnerable to nuclear attack so that we will think twice about coming to the aid of our allied democracies.
Those against Bush and his foreign policy want the same thing. They see no difference, morally speaking, between U.S. influence in the world and that of our foes. A difference does exist, however. It is large and those who think it silly for the United States to defend itself are wrong.

Perspective
Mr. Wong perpetuates degrading stereotypes
Let's get one thing straight right from the beginning. Don't call me an Oriental. I'm not your damn rug and I do not love you long time.
Sorry if I sound a little harsh, but I'm just trying to break out of my Asian-American "mild-mannered and quiet minority" stereotype. It's that passive nature that icebox.com is relying on.
Mr. Wong and icebox.com are not new things. They have been a topic of discussion within the Asian-American
community for a few months now.
I first heard of Mr. Wong this summer and promptly checked it out. I found the humor not that funny and the whole thing just stupid. I didn't really take it that seriously because that's what icebox.com wants. It is specifically trying to draw attention to its Web site with this controversial character.
The thing that bothers me most about icebox.com is that it doesn't have the guts to go after other ethnicities aside from Asian Americans. It knew that if it had done a similar series with an African-American servant, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the entire African-American community would be pounding down its doors.
I ignored this issue before, but things have changed now. Mr. Wong and icebox.com are on my campus and influencing those around me. The Mr. Wong cartoon series may be stupid, but it's
Binh Thai
guest columnist
oianer@kanan.com
also degrading and outright offensive to me.
I'm from a small rural town in which I encountered ignorance and racism daily. I hoped to get away from that type of childish behavior at the University.
In the Kanson's Free for All section Friday, one individual said, "I don't think the article on Mr. Wong was racial. You see that type of thing on SNL, Howard Stern and John Daley. I find that stuff funny, and they should do more of it."
I'm not going to get into the argument about whether icebox.com has the right to do things like this or if it's okay just because Howard Stern does it. My point is this: Mr. Wong is a step backward in achieving multiculturalism here at the University of Kansas.
This character may be hilarious to some as it elicits "chong chong" noises from them. Some of these same people also believe Asian Americans all talk with thick accents, fight like Bruce Lee and crunch integrals like Einstein.
I'll let you decide for yourself if the Mr. Wong series is inappropriate or just a good laugh, but just remember that this is exactly what the creators want you to do.
For others, material like this makes them go around thinking it's fine to make jokes about other cultures.
Personally, I will tear down and cut up any Mr. Wong or icebox.com advertisement that I see on campus. If no one stops icebox.com from putting it up, no one better stop me from taking it down.
Look at Mr. Wong's unnatural yellow skin, hunchback and buckteeth. If you find a mock menu with cats and pandas offensive, the cartoons are even worse.

"Pass/fail extension aids students
Two-week extension will boost students' overall grade point averages.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway approved the two-week "pass/fail" extension last week. Students now have until Oct. 6 to decide whether to take a course for credit or no credit.
This 14-day extension will greatly help students who are unsure of whether to use the pass/fail option. The extension also will help strengthen the overall grade point average of the University, thereby heightening the University's academic image.
Students electing to take the University's credit/no-credit option traditionally had to do so in the first four weeks of class. At the end of the semester, a grade of C or better results in credit for the class, while a D or lower results in no credit. Whatever the outcome, the student's grade point average is not affected
Most classes at the University follow a similar schedule
Midterm examinations for classes usually are assigned between the fourth and sixth weeks of the semester. With midterms usually accounting for 25 percent to 50 percent of the course's final grade, a high mark on a midterm exam most likely means a high mark for the semester. The new extension now will give students the opportunity to take midterms before deciding whether the option is the best choice.
In addition to helping individual student GPAs, the extension, if used effectively, will help to raise the University's overall grade point average. Overall GPA is taken into consideration by many prospective students and is listed in publications specializing in university rankings, such as Barron's and the Princeton Review. A higher University GPA definitely will improve our school's image.
The two-week extension helps everyone at the University, as well as the University itself, and for that we should all be appreciative of Chancellor Hemenway's decision.

ABC reporter discusses career
By Jason Franchuk
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Even after all the opinions he had offered in a one-hour lecture yesterday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union, ABC reporter John Stossel could not have a moment of reprieve.
Stossel, a controversial reporter on ABC News, had already used time to bemoan lawyers, regulations, liberals and journalism schools to the filled auditorium. Now, he just wanted something to quench his thirst.
On the stage midway through a question-and-answer session, Stossel asked if someone could get him water. He did not notice the bottle waiting for him next to the lectern. When he picked up the bottle and unscrewed the cap, a man shouted from the audience "Is it safe?"
Work as a consumer reporter is never easy.
And neither is life as arguably the country's most outspoken public-service reporter. He poked fun at others in his two speeches, but he also was quick to point a finger at himself.
Stossel used part of his first speech at the Alumni Center, to a group of high school students and KU journalism students, to speak about a highly criticized story on pesticides and organic foods he did last fall. The story was condemned in editorials and by groups as inaccurate, but Stossel stands by his work, except for one sentence that he said might have been inaccurate. He later delivered an on-air apology for what he called a "screw up."
A producer of the story was suspended for a month without pay.
Stossel received no formal punishment, except, he said, to his reputation.
"It damaged my credibility." Stossel said, adding that he'd likely be known for years as the guy who fakes things.
The Princeton graduate also criti- cized journalism schools, saying that 90 percent of the time, getting an education in journalism wasn't worth it. He also poked fun at lawyers, who he said had disproportionate power, and liberals.
Someone in each speaking session asked Stossel how he learned to do his job. He gave the answer of someone who has received numerous threats of death and losing his job.
"I learned through fear," Stossel said.
"People who want to run your life tend to go into politics, journalism and law." Stossel said. "They tend to be liberals."
Stossel came to Lawrence from Cancun, Mexico, where he was continuing a national speaking tour. He was headed to Iowa but used his layover time to lend a favor to a new family member. Kris Pueschel, headmaster of Lawrence's Bishop Seabury Academy, a college preparatory school for grades 7 through 12, has a daughter married to Stossel's nephew.
Pueschel said he thought Stossel's visit warranted a larger audience than just Bishop Seabury Academy.
"It would have been self-serving to keep him to ourselves," said Pueschel, who introduced Stossel as a modern-day Socrates. "I thought it was important enough to involve a major university."

Napster returns to court argues case before judges
The Associated Press
Only hours after a federal judge issued an injunction against Napster, saying it was encouraging "wholesale infringing" against music industry copyrights, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals stayed the order.
SAN FRANCISCO — Napster Inc. is hoping three federal appeal judges will let stand a ruling that keeps the Internet music-sharing service alive — at least for now.
The company was spared in July from a court order that would have shut down the site until the Recording Industry Association of America's lawsuit against the online site was resolved.
The two sides headed back to court yesterday, each getting 20 minutes to argue their case before a three-judge panel of the federal
appeals court.
The three-judge panel has already expressed concerns about the injunction and will try to determine whether it was overly broad, said Marcie Mihaila, an appellate lawyer who has followed the case.
A decision isn't expected for at least a month.
Both sides say they are fighting for their survival.
"This service is causing serious injury to songwriters," said Carey Ramos, an attorney for the recording industry. "It really needs to be restrained. We urgently need relief."
Napster claims its 22 million users are violating no law. It bases its defense on the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992, which it says grants immunity when music is shared for non-commercial use.

Britain enacts new bill of rights
Judges lack power to overturn laws in conflict with act
The Associated Press
LONDON — Britain has a new bill of rights, and there are many questions about how it will affect a range of issues from families to free speech to the legality of measures taken to protect London from Irish Republican Army bombers.
The Human Rights Act, passed by Parliament in 1998 and effective yesterday, incorporates much of the European Convention on Human Rights into the laws of England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Scotland adopted the Convention a year ago.
As in the U.S. Bill of Rights, the Human Rights Act is a written charter of the liberties of citizens. Unlike in the United States, judges will have no power to overturn legislation only to advise Parliament if a law is in conflict with the rights act.
Critics of the act predicted a flood of frivolous lawsuits, but others applauded the act as a major advance for human rights.
The rights enumerated in the European Convention have been available to Britons since it came into force in 1953, but only after the time-consuming and expensive process of exhausting all legal avenues at home before taking their cases to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France.
Rights guaranteed under the act include freedom from torture and killing, as well as the right to liberty, education, fair trial, free expression and voting
Opposition Conservative Party lawmaker Ann Widdecombe predicted the act would encourage a rash of frivolous lawsuits.
Under the Human Rights Act, these issues can be weighed in British courts.
"We have a whole range of what most people would not think were sensible claims that will not only take up a lot of time in the courts but will obviously add to what are already queues for justice." Widdecombe said in an interview yesterday on British Broadcasting Corp. radio.
The new act has inspired hopes and fears of significant changes.
Sebastian Sandys of Stonewall, a gay advocacy group, said it would support cases under the Human Rights Act seeking to establish legal partnerships for homosexuals.
Bert Massie, chairman of the Disability Rights Commission, said the act would be an important tool for asserting the rights of disabled people.
Ruth Lea, head of policy at the Institute of Directors, said the act was bad news for business.
"We fear the Human Rights Act, an unnecessary piece of legislation if ever there was one, will give another major stimulus to the compensation culture," Lea said.
The human rights group Liberty said the act might overrule stop-and-search powers enacted as part of the security cordon around the City of London in reaction to devastating IRA bombings. It also believes that the guarantee of freedom of expression will create stronger rights for journalists and make it easier for them to defend
"We fear the Human Rights Act, an unnecessary piece of legislation if ever there was one, will give another major stimulus to the compensation
tion culture."
Ruth Lea
head of policy at the Institute of
themselfs from prosecution under the Official Secrets Act.
The Apprentice Boys of Derry, one of the largest Protestant fraternal organizations in Northern Ireland, said yesterday it might use the act to challenge the Parades Commission, which has banned some marches through Catholic areas.
British law already has bent to rulings from Strasbourg. In cases going back to the 1970s, prisoners won the right to consult lawyers and sue the government; some interrogation techniques were banned in Northern Ireland; controls on telephone tapping were tightened; and children were barred from being tried in adult criminal courts.
The government has budgeted $65 million to cope with the expected increase in court business.
The Lord Chancellor said, however, that he expected no wholesale changes in British law. Since Scotland adopted the European charter last year, he said, 98 percent of the cases arguing a human rights issue had been thrown out by judges.

Residence hall offers eco-friendly housing
The Associated Press
ASHLAND, Wis. — Resident hall life is a little different for 90 students at Northland College: Their "living laboratory" features a 120-foot-tall wind generator, solar panels, recycled furniture and waterless toilets.
"It's great — it's such a way of life already," said Kelsey Forrest, 19, of Burnsville, Minn. An environmental studies major, she shares an apartment in the residence hall with five other women.
The small liberal arts college near Lake Superior touts its $4.1 million Environmental Living and Learning Center as one of the most advanced "green" residence halls in the United States.
The two-story residence hall features three wings, some with windows facing southward to collect as much solar warmth as possible in a climate where winter normally begins in November and lingers through March. Students can grow plants in two greenhouses.
When Northland began considering a new residence hall several years ago, students insisted it be environmentally efficient.
The residence hall opened in 1998. Among its features:
"Students were saying, 'Don't just teach us. Show us.' said Tom Wojciechowski, the director of student development.
About 8 percent of its electricity is generated by the 20-kilowatt wind tower and three solar arrays.
14 solar panels on the roof preheat hot water, cutting those costs nearly 30 percent.
- Some furniture, including the bed frames, desks and bathroom counters, is made from recycled milk jugs or soybean hulls and newsprint.
Organic-based linoleum covers the floor instead of petroleum-based vinyl.
A handwritten sign above one of the waterless compost toilets would have
'They are on the cutting edge. It
is a living laboratory."

been pertinent decades ago in an outhouse;
"Hey composter: Remember to put a handful of wood chips in and close the lid when done."
Rich Hackner, associate director of the Energy Center of Wisconsin, a nonprofit corporation that promotes energy efficiency, said he knew of no other college residence hall in the United States with so many eco-friendly features.
"They are on the cutting edge," he said. "It is a living laboratory."
The U.S. Energy Department's Center of Excellence for Sustainable Development lists the residence hall as one of 26 success stories for commercial projects in the United States.
Furman University in Greenville, S.C., opened an Eco Cottage this fall. Eight students use only recycled paper products, monitor the environmental effect of their food and toiletry purchases and limit energy and water consumption, in part by using a low-impact faucet.
Christine Ervin, president of U.S. Green Building Council, said the council's 510 members included Northland and 27 other colleges and universities.
"I would be surprised if we did not have another 25 in six months," she said. "The university community is demonstrating some real interest in green buildings."
Forrest's rooming fees are $2,400 for the school year, slightly more than for other residences on campus, but she has no qualms about her choice.
"I am glad I am doing it," she said. "There's a lot more we can do, and I think this is a good starting point."
New cigarette might be safer
Product contains fewer carcinogens company claims
The Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. — A small tobacco company is test-marketing a new type of cigarette in Virginia and Kentucky that it says has lower levels of one type of cancer-causing substance than regular brands.
star Scientific Inc. said yesterday it planned to expand the tests of its Advance brand to other states in a couple of months.
Industry experts are dubious that reduced-risk cigarettes will sell among smokers, and they are particularly skeptical about Advance because of the company's reluctance to market them as less dangerous.
In fact. Advance cigarettes come with a
warning that begins, "There is NO such thing as a safe cigarette," and ends with. "It is much safer for you to QUIT than to switch or smoke."
"We're trying to be very, very careful and as responsible as possible," said Paul L. Perito, chairman of the company.
the company says Advance cigarettes produce 70 percent less than leading brands of the class of cancer-causing toxins known as tobacco-specific nitrosamines. They also come with a charcoal filter to reduce toxic gases such as carbon monoxide.
Perito said it was too soon to claim that Advance cigarettes were less hazardous.
"It will take several years to finalize the research," he said.
That cautious approach led to skepticism by one industry expert.
"It's silly to think that smokers are going to switch if you can't promote it as safer," said David Adelman, a tobacco analyst with Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
Donald Shopland, an expert at the
ON THE NET Star Scientific: http://starscientific.com
National Cancer Institute, said nitrosamines were one of about 50 cancer-causing agents in cigarettes. There is nothing to show whether reducing one carcinogen would make cigarettes less harmful, he said.
"About switching to this product, we would be able to provide no advice whatsoever." Shonland said.
Nitrosamines are formed during the tobacco leaf curing process, and Star Scientific said it had a new curing method that reduced nitrosamine production.
Advance cigarettes are not the industry's first attempt at lowering nitrosamines in cigarettes.
R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. is marketing Eclipse, and Philip Morris Co. is test-marketing Accord. Both reduce nitrosamine emissions by using special heating techniques to produce smoke without conventional burning.
Brazil not meeting electricity needs
The Associated Press
ANGRA DOS REIS, Brazil — When the Angra 2 nuclear plant finally came online in July, Brazil took a giant step toward meeting its electricity needs — of a decade ago.
Billions of dollars above its budget and 16 years behind schedule, the reactor is a nod to an earlier era when the 1964-86 military regime still dreamed of transforming Brazil into a world power.
But as Brazil faces its worst energy crisis in decades, Angra 2's 1,300 megawatts of electricity will be as much help as a glass of water thrown into a raging fire.
Brazil already is using more electricity than its generators can comfortably handle, and with the economy poised to grow a solid 4 percent this year and beyond, the country will have to find new sources of power quickly or risk widespread periodic blackouts.
"Brazil runs a real risk of electricity rationing in 2001," said Marcos Severine, an electricity sector analyst with the investment firm Sudamers.
Sao Paulo's Industrial Federation recently sent a memorandum to its members suggesting they think about building their own electricity generators to ensure an adequate supply. It's a step already taken by Votorantim, Brazil's largest industrial group.
In neighboring Argentina, generators are being built with an eye toward sales to Brazil.
The government has an emergency plan to have 12 natural gas-powered electric plants running by next year. But high interest rates in Brazil, uncertainties surrounding government regulation and worries about its currency are keeping most investors away from expensive power projects.
The immediate problem is Brazil relies on hydroelectric dams for 95 percent of its electricity, and several years of unusually light rains have left reservoirs low.
Analysts estimate Brazil needs to invest $6 billion in electrical generation to meet its needs during the medium term. So far, the government has managed to attract only about $1 billion.
However Brazil squeezes through the crisis, one thing is sure: Electricity is going to cost more.
Brazilian electricity now costs a third less than other sources of electricity. So as the new gas-powered plants go into operation, prices will have to go up.
"Even if we don't experience the lack of energy feared for 2001, it seems inevitable that energy prices will rise sharply in the coming months," said Horacio Lafer Piva, president of the Sao Paulo Industrial Federation.

All they need to know is what you'll have and by when.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is an 8.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 5.
If you're getting chewed out for something that's not your fault, hang in there. Get things going again now, and let others figure out whose fault it is, later. If you keep from blowing up, you'll gain everybody's respect.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 6.
Postpone travel until Friday. Follow an older person's advice instead, to get more work and money. What you thought was going to be difficult is easy, but what you thought would be easy could be way too difficult.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 6. You may have to change your plans to accommodate an older person. Meanwhile, make sure nobody else spends your money. You might not like what they'd do with it.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 6.

Kauffman welcomes die-hard football fans
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The season ended Sunday for the Kansas City Royals, but 4,391 showed up last night at Kauffman Stadium to watch football, not baseball.
The Associated Press
In an attempt to break the National Football League on-site paid attendance record of 90,833, the Kansas City Chiefs simulcast last night's game against the Seattle Seahawks on the Jumbotron at Kauffman Stadium, home of the Royals.
There were 78,502 fans at Arrowhead Stadium, across the
parking lot from Kauffman. The total attendance for the two stadiums was 82,893, but it still fell well short of the record.
Fans were charged $10 a seat to watch the game at Kauffman, although tickets could be purchased for $5 at many area high schools.
"I think there should be more fans here, although granted you are paying 10 bucks to watch TV," said Steve Trimble of Independence, Mo. "There's people that for years sat out in the parking lot with their own
There's people that out in the parking lot with their own TVs, so they might as well get in
here and get the game atmosphere." It was party time inside the baseball stadium. The cheerleaders of the Kansas City Wizards, also owned by Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt, performed before the game on top of the Royals dugout.
"You can be a lot louder out here," said Kevin Wagener of Blue Springs. "We just decided to bring in a whole group of crazy people. We're going to be contributing to the crowd noise."
Many would have enjoyed watching the game from Arrowhead, but
the Chiefs have a waiting list for season tickets.
"You can't get in over there," said fan Melody James of Kansas City, Kan. "We came out to be with the crowd. We are Chief freaks. You should see our houses. Chiefs memorabilia is all over the place."
The Kauffman Stadium crowd did the wave before the kickoff and jeered when the Seahawks' defense was announced, saving their loudest boos for ex-Chief Reggie Tongue.
One fan held a sign reading, "Kauffman beats the couch."
Third-quarter comeback leads Chiefs to win
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — There's nothing like a 73-yard play to snatch momentum away from one football team and give it to the other.
Both teams had won their last two games after losing their first two.
The Kansas City Chiefs, trailing 17-7 and backed up to their own 5-yard-line late in the third period, got a giant spark from Elvis Grbac's big completion to Derrick Alexander and scored 17 straight points to beat the Seattle Seahawks 24-17 last night.
The Seahawks were in control for two and a half quarters. They took a 17-7 lead on a 27-yard field goal in the third quarter by rookie Rian Lindell,
who made his first NFL start.
But four minutes later, Grbac stepped back from his own 5-yard line and hit Alexander streaking down the right side, beating Shawn Springs and going 73 yards before Reggie Tongue dragged him down from behind.
One play later, Alexander beat Springs in the end zone on a 17-yard pass, giving the Chiefs a three-play scoring drive, with Grbac-to-Alexander accounting for 90 of the 95 yards.
After Eric Hicks' third sack of Jon Kitna forced the Seahawks to punt a few minutes later, the Chiefs drove to the Seattle 8, and Pete Stoyanovich tied it at 17-all with a 27-yard field goal with 3:18 into the fourth quarter.
Then, with all the momentum belonging to the Chiefs, Dante Hall sped 22 yards with a Seattle punt, and the Chiefs took their first lead of the night with 4:26 left when Mike Cloud beat Willie Williams to the end zone on a 15-yard touchdown run.
Aided by six penalties against the Chiefs for 32 yards, the Seahawks burned nine minutes off the clock with their first possession.
Hicks, after sacking Kitna for a 10-yard loss, was flagged 15 yards for taunting. Then, a penalty against defensive tackle Dan Williams for having his hands to the face turned Seattle's fourth-and-5 into a first down at the Chiefs 40.
In the second quarter, Grbac was 5-for-5 for 69 yards in an eight-play, 78-yard touchdown drive. On the 15-yard touchdown pass, the ball went through the hands of linebacker George Koonce and into the hands of tight end Tony Gonzalez.
On first and goal from the 1, Itula Mili
In what almost amounted to a one-man, 75-yard drive that gave Seattle a 14-7 lead in the second quarter, rookie Shaun Alexander carried six times for 55 yards and caught an 11-yard pass. He reeled off 17-yard gains on consecutive plays and finished with a 7-yard dash into the end zone, cutting back to his right and through a huge hole in the Chiefs' line.
Coach predicts Pierce will be ready by season's start
The Associated Press
WALTHAM, Mass. — It was 4:30 a.m. when Rick Pitino got the phone call that jolted him out of his sleep: Paul Pierce had been stabbed.
"I did fear the worst," the coach o. the Boston Celtics said yesterday. One week after the attack, Pitino predicted his young star would be ready for the season opener Nov. 1.
obviously he's healed as quickly as any human being could possibly heal."
"If I was a fortune teller, I would say he'd play, knowing Paul," Pitino said, adding "that's up to the doctors and that's up to Paul.
"He was in great shape prior to this happening. Paul is not only tough-minded, tough physically, but
Pierce didn't join his teammates yesterday for the team's annual media day at the start of training camp, but Pitino said he would be there every day even if he didn't participate in drills.
surgery.
The 22-year-old was stabbed repeatedly and struck on the head with a bottle the morning of Sept. 24 inside a nightclub in the downtown theater district, prosecutors said.
Pitino said that after first visiting Pierce, "I just was as disheartened and down as I could be ... seeing how battered he was. And the next day, when I went back and I looked at him, and I saw a totally different person."
Three men were arrested, and Pierce was released from New England Medical Center last Thursday after undergoing lung
The 6-foot-7 Pierce still isn't ready to participate in Pitino's grueling two-a-day practices.
The Celtics are relieved about one thing, though. They know the player that will have a key role in their success this season will be back.
He averaged 19.5 points last season, his second since being drafted in the first round out of Kansas.
But the Celtics were 35-47 and haven't made the playoffs in Pitino's three years as coach.
Forward Antoine Walker said Pierce's health "is bigger than basketball, way bigger than basketball. ... You don't want to rush that situation. You want to make sure he heals properly."
Forward Tony Battle was with Pierce at the club but was reluctant to discuss what happened.
"I'm just glad Paul is doing well right now," Battie said. "He'll be back with us. He's alive. He's doing a lot better. He's in great spirits."

WELL, IMAGINE STARING AT A BEAUTIFUL JAPANESE GARDEN WITH LOVELY SCENTS AND GORGEOUS COLORS...
MTV2 had never played an entire album before but agreed when Radiohead's representatives approached station executives.
"It is unique and refreshing in this day and age that a band is looking at the whole album," said David Cohn, general manager of MTV2. "Many artists probably think they are and probably are writing an album as a whole. But they don't market it that way."
Radiohead is encouraging listeners to treat the album as a unified piece of art. It isn't releasing a single or making a video to accompany any of its songs.
With so many entertainment options competing for attention, if there's no hit single being played on the radio, albums frequently go unheard.
Long popular in Europe, compilation discs that string together hit singles of various artists recently have started selling well in the United States.
The approach is a sign of respect for Radiohead and, perhaps, of a backlash in the music industry against short attention spans and the dominance of hit singles.
The British band's last album, OK Computer, was critically hailed as a rock landmark and, without the benefit of a hit single, sold 1.7 million copies. This week's release of the follow-up has been eagerly awaited.
CD players also give listeners the chance to skip songs they don't like at the press of a remote control button. With records, such a chore required getting up, going to the turntable and moving the needle.
...IN HIROGHIMA AS

MTV2 plays entire album
NEW YORK - For nearly an hour recently, the video channel MTV2 aired a film of something many viewers probably had never seen: a record album spinning on a turntable, the needle inching toward the center.
The Associated Press
About a dozen radio stations also are playing the album from start to finish.
To accompany the visual, MTV2 played *Kid A*, a new album by the rock band Radiohead that arrives in stores today. Not just one song, but 10 of them — the whole album.

Women's doubles teams advance
Two doubles teams from the Kansas women's tennis team advanced to the finals of the University of San Diego San Diego State University Invitational yesterday in San Diego, Calif.
Junior Cheryl Mallaiah and senior Monica Sekulow topped freshmen teammates Courtney and Kristen Steinbock in the finals, 9-8 (4). No team scores were kept in the five-team tournament.
"Our doubles teams really improved in this tournament," said Kansas coach Killenny Waterman. "That is an area that we've been working on."
Malliaiah turned in Kansas' top singles performance of the invitational, reaching Sunday's semifinals before falling 6-2, 6-3 to San Diego State's Katey Becker. Sekulov joined Malliaiah as the only Jayhawks to reach the quarterfinals of the 31-player main draw.

Jayhawks focus on chemistry, preventing turnovers Saturday
Errors plague football team
By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
After last Saturday's game, the Kansas football team returned to campus with chemistry on its mind, just as it has many other times.
The Jayhawks keep returning from road trips searching for team chemistry and positive moments after another road loss, this time a 34-16 loss at Oklahoma.
It might be an old method, but Kansas has been forced to salvage anything good from road games. After a season-opening loss at Southern Methodist, Kansas figured it could have changed the outcome if its special teams played better.
This time, the thoughts are that if the Jayhawks can limit their turnovers — they had seven Saturday — then maybe Saturday's 1 p.m. showdown with Kansas State could be different.
Nose tackle Nate Dwyer summed up Kansas' optimistic thoughts.
"We were there in the first half." Dwyer said. "We stalled a little."
Kansas trailed 24-16 at halftime, largely because of quarterback Dylan Smith's play. Coach Terry Allen mentioned Smith's positives — a career-high of 258 passing yards and a perfect strike to Roger Ross that gave Kansas its first touchdown of the game.
Of course, it wouldn't be a Kansas football road game if there weren't negatives
to balance out the good. Smith was responsible for all seven turnovers — five interceptions and two fumbles — all results of when he tried to scramble.
"Obviously he tried to force some things." Allen said.
The Jayhawks are quick to try to focus on the positives again.
Smith's two fumbles were a result of his trying to elude the pass rush he faced most of the game. Aside from the first interception, Smith's interceptions looked more like good punts than bad passes, and they all came on deep passes.
On one interception, Smith was trying to throw the ball out of bounds over everyone's head. Instead, the Oklahoma defender leaped and made a remarkable one-handed grab.
"That was interesting." Allen said.
That was interesting. In fact, the pass defense, which was ranked first nationally before playing Oklahoma, dropped to fourth after surrendering 346 yards through the air last Saturday. Oklahoma quarterback Josh Heuphrel threw 43 passes and completed 29, but Kansas could not come up with a interception.
However, Heupel struggled at times. He didn't fully take control of the game until the Kansas defense was worn out. The defense had to return to the field immediately after the turnovers occurring early in the Javahaws' possessions.
"It keeps the defense on the field for a long time," Marcus Rogers said of the mistakes. "They caused us to wear down." — Filed by Sara Nutt

Two Oregon guards to attend Late Night
More recruits turn attention to Kansas basketball program
By Michael Rigg
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
By Michael Rigg
on Fridav. Oct. 13.
After a slow recruiting season, things are looking up for Roy Williams and the Kansas men's basketball team.
Greg Hicks and Tracy Pierson of PacWest Hoops reported yesterday that Aaron Miles and Michael Lee — both guards from Portland, Ore. — will attend Late Night with Roy Williams
The Web site reported that Kansas now leads the battle for the two guards.
Curiously, Kansas' interest in Lee arose when it was apparent that Miles was leaning toward Arizona. While Miles is considered one of the top point guards in the nation, Lee - Miles' close friend and summer teammate - wasn't being recruited by any of the nation's top programs.
Kansas leads the battle for Lee among Santa Clara, Nevada California-Santa Barbara and Wisconsin.
KANSAS RECRUITS
CatfTracks.net reported that Kansas had offered Lee a scholarship. Miles, meanwhile, postponed his scheduled trip to
Aaron Miles, Portland (Jefferson) 6-foot 0-point. Also recruited by Aizong

Stanford
Jamal Sampson, Santa Ana, Calif. (Mater Dei) 6-foot-10 center; Also recruited by Saint Louis, California
Arizona to attend Late Night. He was previously scheduled to visit the Wildcats' Midnight Madness the same day.
Because Kansas has suddenly jumped to the lead in recruiting Miles
and Lee, another of Miles' close friends 6-foot-6 forward Josh Childress from Lakewood, Calif. also may become a Jayhawk.
Childress visited Stanford last weekend and told Hicks that he enjoyed his visit, but that he still planned on visiting Kansas for Late Night.
Another Kansas recruit — 6-foot10 center Jamal Sampson from Santa Ana, Calif. — visited St. Louis last weekend but still will be a member of the group of recruits who will spend Oct. 13 in Lawrence for the Late Night festivities. However, Sampson told Hicks that St. Louis and California still were in the lead for his services.

Soccer player earns Big 12 recognition
Sophomore defender credits simple playing for weekend success
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
Brown, a sophomore defender for the team, was named Big 12 Newcomer of the Week,the conference office in Dallas announced yesterday.
Pardis Brown shone in two games this weekend and won Big 12 recognition, all in her first season playing for the women's soccer team.
In a 3-1 victory against Iowa State Friday at the SuperTarget Field in Lawrence, Brown led the KU defense. She helped keep the Cyclones from scoring during the run-of-play, which is when the game runs continuously.
She won the award because of her solid defensive performances against two conference foes this weekend.
Brown said her defensive accomplishments came from playing simply, which prevented her from making a lot of mistakes.
I've had few mistakes. That's really been a big part of the game, I think. Just by playing simple it has helped the overall outcome of the game."
"I think that I have played really well," Brown said. "I think I have been playing simple, and so
In a 3-0 loss to Nebraska at the same home turf Sunday, she helped minimize the Cornhuskers' solid attack that has produced 53 goals in 11 games this season.
However, Brown still remained humble about her honor and passed much of the credit onto her teammates.
A.
Brown: was named Big 12 newcomer of the Week
"I'm really excited about it," Brown said. "I think that as the
defense, we've been working really hard together. For any of us to get recognition, that's really good for our whole team."
Coach Mark Francis said that Brown had two good games last weekend and that she deserved the honor.
"I think our defense has been doing a lot better lately," Francis said. "A lot of that is because of Pardis. She organizes and communicates with the defenders in the back. And she's been doing a good job all year, but I think she really played well last two games especially."
Brown said she was worried about Nebraska's athleticism and speed before Sunday's game, but that the team did a good job keeping up with the rhythm that Nebraska, which improved to 12-0 and 3-0 in Big 12 Conference, created.
"I feel really good about the game," Brown said. "We played really well. I'm really proud of the team."
Brown, a Salt Lake City native,
transferred from the University of Portland before the spring 2000 semester because she wanted to attend a university with more degree options as well as a strong soccer program.
Francis said he had enjoyed Brown's attitude as well as her tough defensive performances.
"Pardis is very intense, and she doesn't like to lose no matter what she's doing — in practice or anything," Francis said. "That mentality is something that we needed."
Brown was a member of the U.S. Women's National Team Pool at Portland from 1986 to 1987 and was named All-American by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America in 1997.
As a Jayhawk, Brown has started all 12 games this season. She was awarded the Defensive Player of the Tournament at the UCL/Nike/Holiday Inn-OC Airport Invitational Sept. 8-10 in Irvine, Calif., and was named to the all-tournament team at the KU Credit Union Jayhawk Soccer Classic.

Olympic policy on cold pills worries writer
I have a confession to make. I've been doping.
I took cold medicine.
I simply wasn't feeling well and wanted to get better. Surely I had committed no crime.
It was purely accidental. Wheat Meet — the intramural track meet and Alpha Kappa Lambda/Chi Omega event raising money for KU cancer research — took place Sunday at Memorial Stadium, and I was competing. I had a head cold, and if I didn't get rid of it, there was no way I could participate. So, I did what any logical person would do.
I went to the meet, ran a few races and ended up winning the long jump. I was happy that I had helped my team and helped raise money for cancer research. Despite throwing up after the 200-meter dash, legs aching from being out of shape and my face being sunburnted to a crisp beet red. I was feeling pretty good.
Then I got home, and for some strange reason, God knows why, I started thinking about Olympic gymnastics. I thought about Andreae Raducan, the Romanian gymnast who won the women's all-around competition only to be stripped of her gold medal when a drug test revealed she had pseudoephedrine in her system.
Raducan had a cold and a fever in the days prior to competition. Her doctor gave her Nurofen, an over-the-counter cold and flu medicine. Pseudoephedrine was its active ingredient, clearing nasal congestion.
International Olympic Committee officials confirmed that pseudo probably did not affect her performance in any way, and they realized it was not her fault but still refused to return her medal.
This is where my concern began. Had my cold medicine perhaps altered my performance? Could I possibly be an Olympic-caliber athlete now that I had taken cold medicine? Of course not, although my time in the 100-meter preliminaries was a mysterious 9.91 seconds, supposedly because of a stopwatch mishap.
Upon this realization, I limped to the medicine cabinet and pulled out my bottle of Triaminic Nighttime cold medicine. Sure enough, it contained pseudoephedrine. My first thought was that perhaps that 9.91 time was legit. No, it couldn't be, because three people beat me when I ran that time and I'm sure they weren't on pseudo.
Regardless, I'm glad Wheat Meet doesn't have its own version of the Olympic committee.
A trip to Dillons brought me instant relief. I searched the entire rack of cold medicines and discovered a shocker. The only cold medicine with a nasal decongestant on the rack that did not have pseudo in it was the Alka-Seltzer brand. Tylenol Sinus, Perfect Choice, Benadryl in pill form, some Triaminic products, NyQuil, Sudafed, Robitussin and Motrin Cold and Flu all have pseudoephedrine as an active ingredient.
With this being the case, there should be about 100 other athletes busted for using one of these products in the weeks prior to the Olympics.
With that knowledge in hand, my guilt wore off. I felt comfortable in my athletic mediocry once again. I packed some more pseudo by taking two Tylenol Sinus gelcaps for my cold and sore legs — and vowed to never run again.

Students view first debate with interest
By J.D. McKee
writer @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students had mixed responses to the presidential debate between Democratic nominee Al Gore and Republican nominee George W. Bush last night at the Kansas Union.
Galen Turner, Lawrence junior, was among about 150 people in attendance and said he had a hard time differentiating between the two candidates.
"They take minor differences and blow them out of proportion to prove they disagree," Turner said. "They answered questions with the same answers and claimed to be different."
Turner, who supports Green Party can
didate Ralph Nader, also disagreed with Bush's proposal to use clean coal.
"There's no such thing as clean coal," he said. "Coal is a dirty fuel."
The Green Party had a table set up during the debate to distribute information about Nader, who was excluded from the debate.
Breeze Luetke-Stahlman, Olathe senior, said she was disappointed that Nader was left out of the debate.
"I think the two party format is ridiculous," she said.
Luette-Stahilman said she thought the topics discussed were important but wasn't impressed by either candidate — particularly Bush.
"I don't see how anyone could vote for Bush after this," she said.
But Bush did find support from Jenny Kaufman, Aurora, Colo., junior.
"He did a fabulous job," Kaufman said of Bush. "He really addressed the issues and responded really well to everything Al Gore accused him of."
Michael Young, Lawrence senior, said he thought both candidates did well, but he said that Gore had a better grasp on the issues of most Americans.
"I was especially heartened to hear the vice president's decisive position on education," said Young, a member of KU Young Democrats. "Especially the college tuition tax-credit of up to $10,000."
Young said he was disappointed with what he called Bush's cheap comebacks and character assassination of Gore.
"Americans and students can see through those cheap attacks," he said.
The Hawk's Nest on the third floor was opened to accommodate the overflow of students. Patrick Waters, forums coordinator for Student Union Activities and Leavenworth senior, said he had expected only 30 to 35 people to attend the SU- sponsored event, but was pleased with the political diversity of the crowd.
"We have Republicans, Democrats and Green Party members in the same place," Waters said. "That's one of the best things about it."
Waters said he hoped the large attendance would translate into large voter turnout among students.

Upgrade may cause fee increase in halls

By Jason Krall
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The price of Internet access in residence halls could increase to as much as five times the current rate as the University struggles to keep up with Internet use that has doubled in the last year, administrators said yesterday.
All students living in residence halls likely would be required to pay the increased rates, regardless of whether they had a computer.
System upgrades are needed to keep up with the pace of Internet use by students in the residence halls on Daisy Hill, scholarship halls, Jayhawker Towers and Stouffer Place, said John Louis, director of networking and telecommunications services (NTS)
Michael Hevel, president of the Association of University Residence Halls, said that, while it seems the fee surely would need to be increased, how much
RESIDENCE HALL INTERNET ACCESS
What's happening: Administrators are considering increasing the price of Internet access in residence halls to pay for system upgrades.
What does it mean: Depending on the upgrade, access rates for students in residence halls could increase from $90 to between $180 and $447 per year.
What's next: The Reskret Advisory Board, which oversees Internet services in residence halls, will propose the fee increase to the Student Housing Advisory Board. Final approval rests with Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
could depend on the extent of the upgrade.
If the University decides, based on student input, to upgrade to an integrated telecommunications system, with telephone, cable television and Internet access all coming through the same digital line, the cost could raise the Internet fee as high as $447, he said. The line would feed directly into a

computer, thus requiring all students to have a computer just to use the phone.
If the University chooses instead to only upgrade the existing Internet system, the fee would rise from the current $90 to about $180, he said.
This year's fee is already twice as much as the fee charged last year.
In either case, the fee likely would become part of the cost of student housing, and students would no longer have the option to choose whether they wanted it. Hevel said.

"If you can't afford a computer, I kind of have a problem with requiring you to pay this fee," he said.
Sarah Coleman, Wichita sophomore and Lewis Hall resident, said she thought either increase might be enough to drive some students out of on-campus housing.
For that reason, it seems unlikely that the larger increase will be approved, he said.
"People live on campus because it's cheaper," she said. "I think that would really cut down on the number of people who want student housing."
Coleman said she was happy with the speed of her connection but would like to have two broadband Ethernet connections in her room so that she wouldn't have to switch off with her roommate.
Louis said either of the upgrades being considered would allow for multiple connections within the same room.
Louis said NTS may poll student housing residents to gauge support for the upgrades. In recent years, Internet activity in the residence halls has doubled about every six months, he said.
Louis said NTS is conducting a study to find out what portion of the Internet traffic in the residence halls is recreational, such as students downloading mp3 files. But he said NTS isn't too concerned with how much of student Internet use is play compared to how much is related to coursework.
"If students want to play, we say that's fine, as long as they're willing to pay for it," he said. "If they're paying for the connection, why should we care what they're doing?"
Danger lurks on two wheels

The accident plays through Brandon Warner's mind like a videotape running in slow-motion.

Motorcycle mishap shows need for safety
Warner, a Leavenworth junior, is riding his motorcycle on an old, country road in Leavenworth. It's a dangerous stretch of highway, with winding curves and loose sand and gravel. Warner leans the bike to make a left turn when something goes wrong.
The rear tire loses grip on the road,
and the bike spins on its side. Warner hits the ground and is sent helplessly
careening toward a wooden signpost sticking out of the ground. The post delivers a crushing blow to his mid-section as his body wraps around it. The force of the impact thrusts Warner's body backward into a ditch. He remains conscious, but the pain is so severe he can't move.
The moment Warner decided to ride a motorcycle, the likelihood of his being involved in an accident increased. According to the Kansas
"You just expect to open your eyes and realize that none of it ever happened and you're still at home," Warner said of the June 18 accident. "It hasn't gone away yet. Everyday I wake up, and it's still there."
It happened in a second but the memory makes it feel like an eternity.
Department of Transportation, motorcycles and other motorized twowheeled vehicles accounted for just .02 percent of all motor vehicles in Kansas in 1999 but were involved in.9 percent of all accidents.
The chances of being injured in a motorcycle accident are high. In the 667 motorcycle accidents in Kansas in 1999, 632 people were injured.
That number wouldn't surprise Brian Hunt, a doctor in the emergency department at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Hunt said that by treating accident victims, he had witnessed first-hand the dangers of motorcycles.

Other schools have struggles with enrollment of minorities, too
By Leita Schultes
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
The number of minority students on campus is down since last fall, but the University of Kansas is not alone in its struggle to maintain diversity.
According to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning, there are 2,299 minority students at KU, down from 2,317 last fall, though this figure may be higher because the race, or ethnicity, of 4 percent of campus was listed as "unknown."
The overall percentage dropped as well. A year ago, minorities constituted 9.1 percent of the student body and are now only 8.9 percent.
Other schools around the Big 12 also have programs to raise minority enrollment.
0. 5 percent Chancellor Robert Hemenway said more must be done to bring and keep minority students at KU.
"We can always do better," he said. "We have to do better."
Iowa State now boasts the school's second highest freshmen minority enrollment and an overall minority enrollment of 6.6 percent.
Compared with other Big 12 Conference schools, the University falls short of Missouri's 15.5 percent of total minority enrollment, but it is ahead of both Kansas State and Iowa State.
HAWKLink, which is designed to assist minority students, became a year-round program this year, said student coordinator Season Titus, Newton senior.
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions and scholarships, said KU faculty also were trying to coordinate individual recruitment and retention efforts.
In an effort to stay ahead, the University has begun to expand its minority student services.
"My goal would be that everyone who enters KU would participate and envision themselves as graduating from KU," Hemenway said.
These programs aim at the chancellor's goal.
Richard Seagrave, Iowa State's interim president, credited out-of-state recruitment as the key for the university's minority enrollment, because Iowa's minority population is just 4.1 percent.
Iowa State has implemented a program of learning communities, which are made up of 15 to 20 freshmen who have similar schedules and live near one another, to aid retention, Seagrave said. The communities are for all students, and 40 percent of incoming freshmen — including minorities — participate. He said the groups had helped raise retention by 10 percent.
Although K-State's minority enrollment is at 7.6 percent, Pat Bosco, K-State's dean of student life and associate vice president for institutional advancement, was happy with the numbers and said they had increased during the past 10 years.
Bosco said recruitment and retention of minority students was difficult, but credited K-State faculty with much of the university's success.

"K-State has a very strong, historical relationship between undergraduate students and our teaching faculty," he said. "I'm not sure that K-State does anything special, other than being responsive."

The Black Student Union is beginning a voter registration drive from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.today at the Kansas Union lobby. The group will sponsor a
table at the drive.
The drive will continue throughout the week, with tables from noon to 2 p.m. at Wesco Beach tomorrow and outside Haworth Hall from noon to 2 p.m. Friday.
Cassandra Young, Black Student Union vice president, said the group wanted to get as many people from different backgrounds as possible registered to vote.
"A lot of minorities don't vote, and we thought that some minorities might feel more comfortable or be more receptive to other minorities saying it's important to vote." Young said.
Young said about 70 people registered to vote at the Black Student Union weekly meeting Monday night.
"We're just trying to get voter awareness out — why you should vote, how many minorities actually vote and how their vote could actually affect the voting process," she said.

Wichita woman files suit against Firestone
WICHIТА — A Wichita woman is the latest to file a lawsuit against troubled tire maker Firestone, claiming the company stalled refunds for its recalled tires.
Michel Barnes has asked the court to order Firestone to reimburse customers so they can replace the tires more quickly.
The Firestone recall was still two months away when the front tires of Barnes' 1995 Ford Explorer shredded in June, she said.
Barnes paid to have the two front tires replaced. But she began worrying about the new tires, as well as the two old ones, when Firestone issued a recall of about 6.5 million tires.
Then on Sept. 1, the National Highway Safety Administration issued a consumer advisory about an additional 1.4 million Firestone tires.
She said she learned it would take up to eight weeks to get new tires, or she could pay for them herself and wait for reimbursement.
Her suit contends such a practice discourages people from replacing defective tires.
Firestone faces more than 100 lawsuits across the nation. The lawsuits need court approval to become class actions, and lawyers say that ruling could be from six months to a year away.
In addition, Nazi flags and more than 10,000 bullets also were allegedly found at Richard E. Schaeffel's home.
Firefighters find skulls, weapons in house
SPOTSWOOD, N.J. — Firefighters extinguishing a blaze at the home of a retired radiologist discovered a cache of rocket launchers, grenades, assault rifles and two human skulls, authorities said.
Schaefle, 54, who earned a Bronze Star for his service in the Air Force in Vietnam in 1967 and 1968, was charged Monday with 10 counts of unlawful possession of illegal machine guns and jailed on $750,000 bail.
One of the skulls came from a hospital where Schaefle was a radiologist and another from an auction, assistant Middlesex County prosecutor Michael Weiss said.
Schaeff's attorney, A. Kenneth Weiner, said his client was just a gun collector and had fired only one — a registered Colt. 44 — at a range twice.
Saturday's fire was reported by a passing motorist and suppressed within 30 minutes. Schaeffle escaped through a second-floor window.
NEW YORK — American and North Korean officials wrapped up several days of talks with both sides saying they had made progress on negotiations aimed at ending a stalemate involving North Korea's development and export of missiles.

Details of the meetings would be announced possibly later this week, said Charles Kartman, special U.S. envoy for North Korea.
Kartman said final arrangements were being worked out for a visit to Washington next week by Cho Myong Nok, the first vice chairman of North Korea's National Defense Commission
President Clinton will meet with Cho, considered second in command to the North Korea's leader, Kim Jong Il, from Monday to Thursday. Oct. 12. The State Department said it was an important step forward in promoting bilateral relations.
The talks come amid slowly improving U.S.-North Korean relations following attempts at reconciliation between North and South Korea.

Commission agrees to walkway

The city commission last night approved plans for an overhead pedestrian walkway that will connect the Sunflower Cablevision building to an expanded Laurence Journal-World building.
The skywalk is part of a four-phase project by the World Company known as the World Company Campus. The World Company includes the Laurence JournalWorld Sunflower
Cablevision, and a press, which prints a variety of newspapers, including USA Today and the Kansan. It also owns the
City Commission
nour buildings that will be part of the project on the 600 block of New Hammshire Street.
The first phase of the project is a renovation of the old post office on the corner of Seventh and New Hampshire streets for a combined print, cable and Internet newsroom. The second phase is a two-story addition to the Journal-World mail room that will provide improved access for distribution trucks.
The third phase is a two-story addition and renovation to the Sunflower Cablevision building and the private, overhead walkway, which will allow World Company
employees easier access to a parking lot on the east side of the street and access to the cable studio. The fourth phase, still under development, could include a parking garage and an addition and renovations to the old Reuter Building.
The city's Historic Resources Commission met in August and approved the project, except for the skywalk, which it determined would damage the environs of the area because of the proximity to two buildings on the National Register of Historic Places — the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., and the Consolidated Barb Wire Building, 8 E. Sixth St.
The project's architect, contractor and a representative from the World Company were on hand to try and prove to the commission that no other alternative existed for the 110-foot-long skywalk, estimated at just more than $367,000.
Bo Harris, from Harris Construction, said a tunnel below the street would cost almost $1.2 million. He added that there could also be problems during construction with existing utilities, cable lines, and digging next to the old post office and below the concrete slab of the Sunflower Cablevision building.
Mike Rundle, city commissioner, cast the one dissenting vote. He said he supported the overall project, but he thought a better alternative to the skywalk existed, such as a pedestrian-activated traffic signal in the middle of the block.
CITY COMMISSION
"I'm very conservative about dealing with historic buildings." Rundle said at the meeting.
What happened: The city commission approved a plan for a skywalk over the 600 block of New Hampshire Street, which the Historic Resources Commission voted against because it would encroach upon the environs of two historic buildings.
What it means: The World Company, which includes the Journal-World and Sunflower Cablevision, will be able to move forward with their comprehensive plan for an entire campus of buildings on the 600 block
What's next: The first phase of the project is an interior renovation of the old post office on the northwest corner of Seventh and New Hampshire streets. The building will house the print, online and cable newsrooms of The World Company
David Dunfield, city commissioner, said although the skywalk would change the environs of the area, he thought it was appropriate for the project. He cautioned against the idea that more skywalks should be built downtown.
"We're talking about a specific situation for a specific use," Dunfield said. "We don't want to set a precedent here of taking retail shoppers off the streets."

University permitted to appeal Watkins suit
By Jason Krall
writer @konsan.com
Kansan staff writer
The women of Watkins Scholarship Hall had mixed feelings about a decision in a lawsuit regarding the hall's trust fund, the women's attorney said yesterday.
Douglas County District Court Judge Jack Murphy ruled Monday that the University of Kansas and Bank of America, which manages the trust, would be allowed to appeal an earlier ruling that required the bank to show the women detailed accounting of allocations and investments from the fund.
However, Murphy also ruled that the 14 women who filed the suit were beneficiaries of the fund. That entitles them to be have their comments heard by a judge each year when the fund is reviewed in court, said David Brown, attorney for the women.
If the appeal succeeds, the bank will not be required to answer questions from the Watkins residents about why the fund's annual
But regardless of the appeal's outcome, the process will likely delay hearings for at least a year. Brown said.
"We're sorry that the University and the bank want to delay this for so long," she said.
But Lynn Bretz, interim director of university relations, said the appeal was a necessary legal process that the University would have to go through to protect its rights concerning the accounting of all its trust funds.
"We hold no ill will toward the students," she said. "We're eager to see this move forward and get resolved."
Bank of America has volunteered to offer more detailed accounting in its annual report to the trust's beneficiaries this year. Brown said. But it has not announced specifically what information will be included, and the more detailed accounting may not satisfy the law.
"We hold no ill will toward the students. We're eager to see this move forward and get resolved." Lynn Bretz

suit's inquiries, he said.
Residents of the two halls have complained that the money had not been used for needed improvements such as central air-conditioning. But the money was used to repair roofing and windows at Miller this summer, according to student housing officials.
Previously, the University had been the sole beneficiary of the trust. But the ruling will allow the women some input on how the trust is managed, even if an appeals court denies them access to records of its investments, Brown said.
Tobacco devices unlawful if used with illegal drugs
- Edited by Warisa Chulindra

writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A run-of-the-mill tobacco smoking device quickly can become drug paraphernalia if it's used for illegal activities, the KU Public Safety Office said.
Sgt. Troy Mailen said that possessing rolling papers, pipes and water pipes became illegal if the devices were used to smoke drugs or if the person was caught with drugs. He said it was up to individual officers to determine whether smoking devices qualified as drug paraphernalia.
"It would be hard to indicate that it was possession of drug paraphernalia without something along with it," Mallen said.
7th Heaven, 1000 Massachusetts St., is one of several
stores in Lawrence that sells tobacco accessories. Eric Mater, manager, said the store listed its products as tobacco accessories and customers would be turned away just for mentioning illegal usage.
"If there's any sort of indication or slang term terminology used, we refuse service and ask them to leave," Mater said.
"The pipes have one use,and generally it's for smoking drugs."
Troy Mallen KU Public Safety Sargeant
The terminology rule is an unwritten one, Mater said. The store can't even post signs to warn customers because it would be illegal.
"If you go to a gun store and say, 'I need a gun to kill my wife,' then the gun store is liable," Mater said. "It's the same kind of situation here."
Mailen said rolling papers generally were less of a problem than pipes because a lot of people used papers to smoke tobacco. Pipes, however, usually indicate drug use.
"The pipes have one use, and generally it's for smoking drugs," Mailen said. "I don't know of any case where a clean pipe was involved."
Mailen said that in one case a man was selling clean, new glass pipes at the residence halls. He was contacted for illegal solicitation, and when marijuana was found, the officer seized the pipes.
"We didn't have a whole lot on him until the pot was found," Mailen said. "Then the officer seized the pipes based on his findings."

Mailen said it was legal to sell clean pipes but that possessing pot made the sales illegal.
"There is no charge of selling clean paraphernalia by itself," Mailen said. "It was the other findings that put him over the gray line."
Ira Frydman, Milwaukee, Wis., senior, said he didn't think having a pipe was a problem if the person didn't have any drugs.
"If it's not being put into use," he said, "I don't see a problem with it."

Limiting housing options unfairly punishes students
Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods: dissenting
If passed, the newly proposed City of Lawrence housing ordinance will drastically reduce students' housing options. By decreasing the number of unrelated residents in a house from four to two, this ordinance would completely reshape the Lawrence community, with University of Kansas students among the most affected. The management and layout of off-campus student housing would become chaotic.
Student renters threaten neighborhood viability
The University is in one of the best college towns in the Midwest, yet the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods points to college students as the problem. The association's proposal would deny most students the right to live in a single-family neighborhood. This violates the city's non-discrimination policy which "assures equal opportunity for all persons within this city in housing..."
The neighborhood association says students' disruptive lifestyles are counterproductive to a family community, but it already enacted a nuisance ordinance June 20. Proper enforcement will do away with the repeat offenders in good time. However, another ordinance is unnecessary.
If enacted, the new ordinance would unfairly discriminate against students, most of whom don't have a family with which to live in Lawrence. Many students would choose three and four bedroom apartments or duplexes, thereby increasing the demand, and causing a rate hike by the landlords. This would nullify the city's commitment to fair and affordable housing.
The city commission notes decreasing elementary school enrollments as a result of more students temporarily renting houses in such zones. Instead, there is a trend toward a suburban lifestyle for raising a family. Old school zones need to change with the times. The demands of student housing naturally contribute to more rentals and fewer families around campus. Therefore, the city should just make zoning adjustments.
Because at least 75 percent of the city would be zoned for single families, students would desperately be looking for apartments and duplexes on the outst town. This bustle would contribute to highly congested roadways as students commute to school by car, instead of simply walking or biking to class.
All in all, how would the city enforce such an ordinance? College students will always find a way to cram into houses and avoid paying high rents.
Lawrence is an extraordinary college town. Student enrollment is increasing. And those students need a place to lay their heads. Lawrence should maintain the diversity of its central neighborhoods.
The more students who protest the vote at City Hall Oct.25, the better. If passed, the student backlash would be tremendous. Students spent more than $156 million in Lawrence last year. Students deserve to be appreciated and respected for this work.
tion without which the Lawrence economy could not survive.
To maintain the personality and character of the Lawrence community, sign a petition this week at the voter registration booths on Wescoe Beach or at the Kansas Union.

During the fall of 1999, 13,764 students (58.79% of the student population) lived in rooms and apartments in the City of Lawrence. During that time period, the elementary schools in the neighborhoods around the University of Kansas lost 47 students. These are trends that have been accelerating during the last decade. University students move in; families and elementary children move out. Are these two trends related? And if so, what does it
Are these two trends related? And if so, what does it mean for the City of Lawrence? The Lawrence Association of Neighbourhoods
are Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods believes that the two trends are related. Under the current city
that the two trends are related. Under the current city zoning ordinance, the city considers four unrelated persons to be the equivalent of a family. This means that they can buy or rent homes in single-family neighborhoods (RS-1 and RS-2 zoning). Since most students rent, rather than buy, this ordinance encourages landlords to purchase homes in single-family neighborhoods and rent them to students.
This is a lucrative business. Groups of students can pay far more in rent than the average single family in Lawrence can afford. As a result, as homes come up for sale, they are often bought by landlords for rental to students. Families are crowded out of single-family neighborhoods because they cannot afford to pay the prices landlords demand for these homes. In addition, when students move into a home in a single-family neighborhood, they bring a lifestyle that clashes with that of the remaining homeowners. Most students have cars, so more cars fill the streets and sometimes yards as well. Students tend to be gregarious, so friends congregate and parties happen. Students go to school during the day, so they party at night.
For families, night time is usually a quiet time. For students it is often play time. The clash of these lifestyles drives families away.
The loss of families and children from single-family neighborhoods harms the City of Lawrence. Neighborhoods near the University become student ghettos. The quality of the housing stock declines and elementary schools may close. At the same time, the cost of living in Lawrence increases. The flight to the suburbs means building new streets, new sewed a female student. The criticism the reader was complaining about wasn't in the content of the news stories, which make an attempt to remain neutral. The topic of Allen's responsibility in the matter came up often in the Free for All opinion line, columns and letters.
...out to the suburbs means building new streets, new sewers, new water treatment plants and new schools. These all
Thus, as students move into single-family districts, the quality of life for families declines, and the cost of living for families goes up.
The Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods wants to reverse this pattern.
Single-family neighborhoods should be for single families. We want to reduce the number of students living in these neighborhoods. We want students to live in environments that are better suited for them and better suited for Lawrence.
Arly Allen for the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods

W when most of you pick up the paper, you're probably looking for something that catches your interest, or maybe you head straight for the crossword puzzle. You probably don't think about the layout of the paper too much, but there is a rhyme and reason to it.
The fourth page of the Kansan is reserved for opinion. Not just our opinions, but yours as well.
Too often, readers confuse what they're reading on page 4A with the news and features on the other pages. The opinions are kept on a page by themselves for a reason — so that readers don't get confused, but that doesn't always happen.
For instance, one reader thought the Kansan was being too hard on Terry Allen's choice of punishment for the two football players who allegedly sexually assault

Other students have told me that they were angered by Andrew Marino's column speaking out against affirmative action. His
views on affirmative action are just that — his views, not ours. If columns and editorials on the opinion page are getting people angry, in a wav, they're doing their job.
The idea is to have an open forum for readers to express different opinions. Getting people riled up is a great way to open a dialogue.
Just look at how many letters came in response to a column about masculinity. It took a highly-opinionated column that many readers disagreed with to get people talking about the issue of gender equality and masculinity in a way the front-page news story about masculinity speaker Jackson Katz didn't. It's hard to argue with a straight, unopinionated news story.
We hope the issues brought up in the news are provocative enough to get readers thinking, but I don't think they move us in the same way as do opinions that often times we disagree with. That's why we love watching Dr. Laura, whether we agree or disagree with her, but we don't really have a strong opinion of Dan Rather.
The opinion page is a forum for everyone, not just the Kansan. That's why we welcome guest columns and letters from students. The editorial board, which speaks for the Kansan, includes students who aren't part of the news staff, many of whom aren't even journalism students.
Take the opportunity to stir up a conversation of your own — the page is yours.

Letters to the editor Fire standards sufficient in KU residence halls
This letter is in response to the Sept. 11 column by Amanda Sears, "Prevention key to hall fire safety." In her editorial, Ms. Sears attacks the safety of students living in campus residence halls in the instance of a fire. I feel it is my duty as a staff member at McCollum Hall to rebut her claims.
Ms. Sears states that there are "students crammed into residence halls — many with mediocre fire safety measures." Well, maybe she doesn't know this, but the university doesn't round up leftover students and force them to live here. The students who live in campus housing choose to do so on their own accord, and KU residence halls never operate above maximum occupancy.
She also makes the assertion about many halls with mediocre fire safety measures — as if the fire procedures differ from hall to hall. While the majority of campus residence halls still don't have sprinkler systems, they all have the absolute best fire procedures available. Students' well-being is always our number one concern.
The title of Sears' editorial indicates that prevention is the key to hall fire safety. This is where she is absolutely correct. The very first program of the year that hall staff put on is the annual fire safety program. Every resident is required to attend this meeting where the Lawrence fire marshal speaks to the students about fire safety issues. Each resident learns exactly what to do and what not to do in the instance of a fire alarm. They learn where the fire exits are and also of the procedures that are required not only of them, but of our staff, too.
When a fire alarm is sounded at a residence hall, a staff member immediately dials 911, and the Lawrence Fire Department arrives, on average, in three to four minutes. A room fire can be contained for 20 minutes when the door is shut. At the same time, residents are required to leave their rooms and exit the building. To make certain that this happens, a staff member keys open every resident's room and checks inside to make sure the occupants of that room have exited. As a matter of fact, it is illegal for any resident to remain in his or her room during a fire alarm. These procedures are also identical in the residence halls that do have sprinkler systems.
Sears mentions the Seton Hall residence hall fire that killed three
students and injured 62 others. This is an example of what can happen when these safety measures are not in place. The fact is that people do die as a result of fires.
Unfortunately, it is also a fact that KU residence halls do have fires. And lastly it is a fact that thanks to the hard work of student housing staff members, KU residence halls have an exemplary safety record in the instances of fires. In fact, during McCollum Hall's first fire alarm, it just so happened that while staff members were doing room checks that one of them found a resident who, at the time, was incapable of being removed without assistance. If it had not been a false alarm and staff members weren't working hard to check rooms, as was the case of the Seton Hall University fire, the outcome could have been disastrous.
Finally, Ms. Sears states that in an attempt to save "precious dollars," sprinkler systems won't be added until each residence hall undergoes a massive renovation. Strange, though; I wonder how massive renovations that will cost millions of dollars for each building are a sneaky attempt for the university to "save precious dollars."
Sears states that in installing sprinkler systems, "The Greek system has set an example for the University to follow." The fact is that those greek houses were unsafe, and they didn't add the sprinklers until they were required to do so. That's some example to follow.
I think it's too bad that Sears and the editorial board harbor such ill will towards student housing when we're doing the best to be the safest place for students to live.

Columnists reveals ideological ignorance
In his Sept. 28 column ("Liberal reveals himself"), John Audlehelm actually reveals little more than his fundamental misunderstanding of liberalism and conservatism.
Throughout, he regurgitates the old lie, propped up and propagated by the mainstream media, that liber als protect the little guy and want to limit the power of government - when in fact the exact opposite is true.
He acknowledges that our "political system is built on the limitation of power" but then blames conservatives for Big Government and charges them with assaulting people's rights. But it's liberals who are trying to destroy our Second Amendment freedoms. It's liberals who daily violate the 10th
Amendment, enabling the federal government to usurp the power of the states. It's librarians who've created the cradle-to-grave welfare state. It's librarians who demand 40 percent of our incomes to fund their asinine social programs. It's librarians who tell us we're too irresponsible to plan our own retirement, too stupid to properly educate our children and too greedy to deserve a tax cut.
Mr. Audleheim has obviously been well-indoctrinated. And as a future journalist, he'll certainly thrive in the left-wing morass into which journalism has sunk, dufitfully serving up liberal legs to legions of unsuspecting readers. New York Times, he's on his way!

Liberal overtones plague entire Kansan
I just wanted to make a few comments on last week's column "Liberal reveals himself" by John Audleholm and the current state of this publication.
First of all, it is completely unnecessary for a member of the Kansan staff to admit to being liberal. Any informed reader can easily detect the extreme liberal views implanted in almost every article.
Even the sports page presents facts without some political or social distortion. When I turn to the sports page on Monday, I want to read about the game. I'm sorry if it isn't very convenient to interview football players but I, who represent the majority of sports fans on campus, would like to hear what the players think. Instead, the readers were forced to observe a column hardly at all about football but about pregame parties. The columnist even went as far to bash some Bush supporters with the unusual liberal propaganda of the fat, rich guy.
It's really no surprise that this staff doesn't want to interview the players or give the football team any good press. Football is extremely competitive and aggressive. Liberals despise both. If it were up to this newspaper staff, the competitive nature of capitalism in America would not exist.
I completely understand Audlehelm's right to be a liberal. Everyone has the right to be ignorant. It is really impossible to make any justifiable case for liberalism, and Audlehelm proves this point again and again.
First of all, it is ridiculous to think liberalism is not accepted here. Liberals are everywhere on campus, and they don't exactly hide either.
tics threaten our civil liberties and that Democrats are fighting that. Excuse me, but last I checked it was liberal Democrats such as Al Gore who want the government to be more powerful, more regulatory and, of course, more expensive. It is the Democrats who want to control health care and control education. Our rights of choosing these things are threatened by Democratic proposals. Also, our natural right to pursue happiness is being increasingly threatened by taxes. Cutting taxes is a so-called "risky scheme" by Democrats.
He says that recent trends in poli-
He thinks that women should have the right to have an abortion. Fine, most Democrats are pro-choice. He says that if a government can keep her from having an abortion, they can make her 'have one as well. That is just insane. First of all, there is a fundamental difference between the two. In most conservatives' minds, it is not the right of a woman to destroy human life inside or outside her womb. It's funny that he brings up how we don't want to go to China when Bill Clinton and many Democrats have put our national security at risk by accepting campaign donations in return for tons of military technology and secrets.
He says that when the government gets too powerful, scary things can happen.
Good point! Vote for Bush and other Republicans to create a smaller government for the people and return many powers back to the state and local levels.
His main point is that he can't stand the moral overtones of Republicans. It is no wonder he feels insecure or threatened when someone would even dare mention something about morals or family values. The leader of the Democrats, Bill Clinton, certainly represents a good moral leader for our country and all Democrats, doesn't he?
Maybe John feels guilty about something but I really think he could someday become an enlightened conservative.

Handbills directed at Allen are justified
In Thursday's editorial ("Handbill accusations off-target"), the editorial board claims that Terry Allen alone was not responsible for the players' punishments, but that is just incorrect.
would be interested to know if the editorial board even saw a copy of the handbills distributed, because all the handbills contained were facts, no real "accusations" other than the fact that the punishment was not appropriate (which Terry Allen seems to agree with). The handbilling did promote awareness of the incident and changed some attitudes, just as the editorial says was the goal of the handbilling, and also criticizes the handbilling for not doing. Finally, the editorial board correctly identified the fact that the issue at hand is a systemic problem and there are many parties to blame, which was one of the messages of the handbilling.
Terry Allen was indeed the person who decided that the punishment for sexual assault should be running stairs (interesting that he assumed the players were guilty). 1
More discussion of these other parties and factors is entirely appropriate. Many students are not going to simply forget this whole ugly incident ever happened.
Students need to open their ears for GTAs
While I applaud the Kansan's editorial board for recognizing that the difficulties between undergraduates and their international teaching assistants often do not originate from differences in English proficiency, I must disagree on the root of this supposed problem, and, consequently, the methods to solve it.
The KU English proficiency exams should not be made more difficult; they are hard enough already. Every graduate student teaching at the University of Kansas knows English very well.
International GTAs must become less apologetic about their English (for the GTAs from Brooklyn, Boston and Louisiana who speak funny yet never have complaints filed against them do not have to apologize) and teach their classes the best way they see fit.
Undergraduate students must realize that English is spoken with many different accents, and if they can not adjust their ears in a university setting, their education and their grades will suffer.
Line University must make it clear that, for those seeking out an excuse for earning a bad grade, international students will no longer be an easy patsy.
Once this happens, there will no longer be any complaints, everybody (including the GTAs) will benefit from the education KU has to offer, and there will no longer be a need for articles about this subject in the Kansan.

Marching band to have first concert
By Meghan Bainum
Kansan staff writer
A new musical tradition is coming to the University of Kansas.
The KU Marching Jayhawks will appear in concert for the first time at 7:30 tonight in the KU "Band Spectacular" at the Lied Center.
Although this is the concert's first year, many, including Timothy Oliver, director of the Marching Jayhawks, have high hopes that Band Spectacular might become as much of a tradition as the Rock Chalk chant or the walk down Campanile hill on graduation day.
"I would like for this to become an annual event," Oliver said. "I think it has the potential to be one more thing to add to the already rich music tradition that is not only a part of KU, but a part of Lawrence."
Oliver said the concert definitely would
KU BAND SPECTACULAR
KU Concert Band will begin the show at 7:30
p.m. tonight at the Lied Center
KU Men's Glee Club will perform at intermission in the lobby
The Marching Jayhawks will perform in the second act.
- Tickets are $7 or $5 with a valid KUID and can be purchased at the Lied Center box office.
"We wanted to create a type of event that would be a mix of not only traditional concert band type of music, but also the type of stuff that one would experience at a football game," he said. "Kind of bring those two ensembles together in one setting."
Bob Foster, director of bands, said the concert would have two distinct parts. He said the first part would be a more traditional concert with a twist of glamour. It
will feature music that blends traditional KU favorites such as "I'm a Jayhawk" with a flashy Hollywood setting.
During intermission, the KU Men's Glee Club will perform in the Lied Center lobby.
Foster said the concert would let students and Lawrence residents experience KU's musical tradition.
The final part of the concert will begin with the marching band "running in" to the center and will feature the color guard, Crimson Girls and mascots.
"People love the music. They love the color, love the pageantry and love the University," Foster said. "It's just a wonderful, wholesome, exciting evening and it's family entertainment. It will be a crimson and blue montage of color and sound."
Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for seniors and KU students with valid KUIDs.

Helmets can reduce risk of motorcycle injuries
Continued from page 1A
among the least safe," Hunt said. Hunt encourages all riders to wear helmets to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
"The No. 1 killer in motorcycle accidents are head injuries." Hunt said. "Helmets protect the skull and cut down on them."
Statistics support Hunt's claim. In 1999, only three of the 16 people in Kansas who died from motorcycle accidents were wearing a helmet, according to the Department of Transportation.
It's hard to say what caused Warner's accident. He wasn't speeding and he was wearing a helmet, protective gloves and protective clothing when he crashed.
"You'd think if I was going to get in trouble, I'd be doing something stupid, but I slid on some sand doing 25 mph." Warner said. "Sometimes, I guess it doesn't matter how careful you are. An accident's an accident."
Warner had a partially torn kidney and internal bleeding near the area where his body collided with the post. He was sent by emergency helicopter to the University of Kansas Medical Center where surgery was performed to repair the kidney.
On Friday, Warner was back in surgery to remove a plastic tube connecting his kidney to his bladder. The surgery required the insertion of another plastic tube to allow blood to flow freely while the injured tube heals. Six to eight weeks from now, that tube will be removed, and Warner's body should be back to normal.
Warner and his father, Joe Warner, both agreed more riding experience could have prevented the accident. Though Warner was only traveling 25 mph, the bike lost traction on a patch of sand when he was attempting a turn. Warner realized he was in trouble but didn't have the confidence to lean the bike far enough to compensate.
"I'm convinced it was not speed as much as it was inexperience," Warner's father said.
Warner had purchased the motorcycle just three weeks before the accident. He had driven his father's bike several times before, but Joe Warner said that wasn't enough.
Warner was planning to take a motorcycle safety course during the summer but couldn't find any openings. Instead, Joe Warner taught his son how to ride. He regrets his decision.
"I didn't say, 'You really should not ride at all until you take the course,' Joe Warner said. "Now I feel somewhat responsible."
But Warner said he'd be back on a bike as soon as the doctor gave medical clearance.
Warner's mother, Susan Warner, doesn't approve of Warner's decision to ride again.
"I'll always be vocal against it."
Susan Warner said. "But there's not much I can do. He's going to do what he has to do. I just might not like it."
Though his numerous surgeries and visits to the doctor have been burdensome, Warner is the first to admit he has been fortunate.
"It took most of my summer, but, at the same time, I'm alive, and I still have both kidneys," Warner said. "If I'd hit that pole with a leg or my neck or something, it could have been a lot worse. All things considered, I was really lucky. To come out of that and be OK is amazing. God was definitely looking out for me."
"Anything like this kind of makes you realize right up close in your face how fragile life is," Warner said. "That's scary for a 20-year-old kid to realize." — Edited by Amy Randolph
Warner's accident has caused him to look at life from a different perspective.
Three professors to receive awards

Kansas staff writer
KU officials will award the 2000 Higuchi/Endowment Research Achievement Awards to three University professors today.
Marilyn J. Stokstad, Judith Harris Murphy distinguished professor of art history; Glen K. Andrews, professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University of Kansas Medical Center; and Rhonda Montgomery, professor of sociology and director of the KU Gerontology Center, each will receive $10,000 to continue their research. Patrick Richard, distinguished professor of physics at Kansas State University, also was a recipient.
Stokstad, who will receive the Balfour Jeffrey Award for research achievement in humanities and social sciences in art history, was recognized for her efforts in textbook writing. She said she was surprised that she received the award.
"I had dedicated myself to teaching and was surprised to be recognized for textbook writing," she said. "It shows the University of Kansas' commitment to students and teaching."
Andrews will be awarded the Dolph Simons Award for research in the biomedical sciences for his efforts in the study of mechanisms that regulate gene expression.
"It's great to be honored by peers." Andrews said.
Montgomery will be awarded the Irvin Youngberg Award for research achievement in the applied sciences. Montgomery could not be reached for comment.
John Scarffe, Kansas University Endowment Association communications director, said recipients had to display outstanding efforts in their research to be considered
"I had dedicated myself to teaching and was surprised to be recognized for textbook writing. It shows the University of Kansas' commitment to students and teaching."

for the awards.
"The research should have an international impact and be characterized as profoundly influencing in the field," he said.
Scarfe added that although the association managed award funds, the chancellor was responsible for selecting the recipients and presenting the awards.
The professors will be presented with the awards at 3:30 p.m. today in the Bruck Miller room at the KU Adams Alumni Center.
the awards were established in 1981 by the late Takeru Higuchi, KU distinguished professor of chemistry and pharmacy and chairman of the department of pharmaceutical chemistry. Those eligible to receive the awards include faculty members at all Kansas regents institutions. The annual awards are named for the individuals who have worked closely with the KU Endowment Association to further the University's overall research program
Recipients can use their awards for continuing research efforts, summer salaries, fellowship matching funds, research materials or other support.

Local Black authors focus of presentation

John Edgar Tidwell knows something few other Kansans know.
"I'm beginning to understand it's a little known fact," said Tidwell, who returned to his native state last year to teach English at the University of Kansas.
He knows that Langston Hughes, Gordon Parks and Frank Marshall Davis — three prominent African-American writers — had Kansas roots. In fact, Langston Hughes even spent his adolescent years in Lawrence.

Tidwell, as a new member of the Kansas Humanities Coun-cil
Tidwild: talks about discrimination faced by authors.
Speakers Bureau, will begin sharing his knowledge of the three authors.
Tidwell's presentation is titled "Against the Odds: Writers Growing up Black in Kansas."
Marion Cott, executive director of the council, said Tidwell had already booked four or five talks.
"There has been an extremely positive response to his topic and the ideas that he has to bring forward," she said.
Tidwell said the title of his speech was self-explanatory and described the focus of his presentation.
In the early 1900s, Kansas was a land of contradiction and uncertainty for African Americans, Tidwell said. He also said his speeches would focus on how the three authors coped.
He said Hughes and Parks remained fairly positive about life despite the trials of segregation and discrimination.
"Davis is another case," said Tidwell, who has edited two books about the author. "He felt the biggest contradiction was between principle and practice."
Tidwell said the Constitution was applied to African Americans in a disproportionate manner during Davis' life. The author became embittered, and he expressed his discontent in his memoir.
Tidwell's topic will be presented to a variety of audiences, such as those at public libraries or churches.
"They're not speaking to college audiences." Cott said. "These are community-based organizations."
Tidwell said it was a diverse audience but mainly consisted of people outside the University.
"It gets us off of Jayhawk Boulevard." Tidwell. "It gives me the opportunity to promote the University in a different way."
The speakers bureau is 12 years old, and has nearly 60 members, nine of whom are from KU. To schedule Tidwell's speech, call (785) 357-0359.

Volunteers spend vacations serving
By Debra Steele
Special to the Kansan
Derek Helms, DeSmet, S.D., senior, didn't spend last spring break lounging on sunny, sandy beaches. Instead, he spent his time volunteering in a homeless shelter in Alamosa, Colo.
With nine other KU students, Helms participated in the Alternative Spring Break program at the La Puente Home. The students cooked for people staying at the home as well as for people in the community. They also built a new floor in a coffee shop attached to the shelter.
Last year, 120 KU students opted not to hit the beach or the slopes and instead volunteered their time to
Alternative Breaks.
The eight-year-old program sets students up to volunteer for weekend, winter or spring breaks.
This is the first year students can receive one hour of credit for the winter break program.
Jessica Risley, Alternative Breaks director, said students had responded well to the program.
La Puente Home doesn't just give people a place to stay; it helps them get back on their feet by providing services to help them find jobs and low-cost housing.
"Last spring break, we actually had to turn people away," she said. "One hundred and sixty people applied. We could only take 120."
ALTERNATIVE BREAKS
Information session at 7 p.m.
Tuesday, Oct. 10, at the English
Room in the Kansas Union.
more release applications due at 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 20
Volunteer applications due at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 10.
Projects include conservation, education, hunger and homeless, health and wellness, environment and cultural diversity. Sites are spread across the country, with the most popular destinations being New York City and Washington D.C. There also are sites in the Southwest and Florida.
Alternative Breaks receives funds from Student Senate, the School of Education, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Student Affairs, Coca-Cola and through the group's own fundraising.
Helms was so impressed by his experience last year that he wants to be a site leader this spring break.
"We want students to get hands-on experience." she said.
Jennie Gottschalk, director of Alternative Winter Breaks, said the goal of Alternative Breaks was service learning.
"It's just nice to know I spent my spring break doing something worth- while," he said.

Canada mourns former prime minister
The Associated Press
MONTREAL — Thousands of Canadians wept and applauded at former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's funeral yesterday as his son remembered his father's love of country, told the nation to carry on his work and then buried his tearstained face in the flag draping his father's coffin.
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep. He has kept his promises, and earned his sleep," Justin Trudeau said, near tears as he paraphrased the American poet Robert Frost to
close his eulogy. "Je'taime (I love you) Papa."
inside and outside Montreal's ornate Notre-Dame Basilica, dignitaries including Jimmy Carter and Fidel Castro and thousands of ordinary Canadians gathered to pay their respects to Trudeau, the dashing former prime minister who boosted a nation's pride with his charisma, his willingness to buck the United States and his dedication to Canadian unity. Five days of nationwide mourning culminated at the two-hour state funeral. Solemn prayers mixed easily with
tears and applause from the 2,700 mourners inside during the service, conducted in French and English.
Justin, Trudeau's eldest son and a Vancouver teacher, delivered the final eulogy in a voice eerily like his father's and cracking with emotion. He spoke movingly of his father's abiding love of his country and family and of his admonition never to speak harsh words about any individual.
"This simple tolerance and (recognition of) the real and profound dimensions of each human being, regardless of beliefs, origins, or val
ues — that's what he expected of his children and that's what he expected of our country." Justin said.
Justin and his younger brother, Sacha, both wore red roses, their father's trademark.
Trudeau, who died last Thursday of prostate cancer at age 80, served as prime minister from 1968 to 1984 with a short interruption.
Justin Trudeau challenged Canadians to keep his father's dream of a united, tolerant, bilingual and multicultural nation alive, saying: "It's all up to us, all of us now."
Bangladesh, India battle devastating floods
The Associated Press
CALCUTTA, India — Air force helicopters in Bangladesh rushed yesterday to flood-ravaged villages to try to lift marooned villages clinging to trees to safety.
Thousands of people are stuck on the rooftops of their submerged houses or clinging to trees, waiting to be evacuated to safer areas, officials said. Air force helicopters in Bangladesh joined army and navy boats to deliver relief goods and rescue marooned villagers.
Nearly 400,000 people have taken shelter in emergency relief
camps set up on mud embankments or highways, they said.
In Satkhira town, thousands of residents on Monday piled sand bags to prevent floodwaters from gushing through cracks that developed along a 3-mile mud embankment, the Bengali-language daily Janakantha reported.
Some people attacked the car of a district administrator near Satkhira town for delay in providing relief and failing to protect them from looters, the newspaper said.
The fresh rains blocked efforts by relief workers to reach many
remote villages that have been inaccessible for the last two weeks. In some areas, the rain washed out the relief distribution networks.
"The rains are a real setback for relief and rescue efforts." Krishnendu Roy, a relief worker said.
In signs of fraying patience, residents in one isolated village in Bangladesh attacked the car of an administrator because of delays in providing relief, a newspaper said.
Other villagers attacked four policemen who tried to prevent them from cutting a hole in a dike
to divert the waters away from their village.
As flood waters receded from some of the hardest-hit areas, relief workers found more bodies.
"The death toll is rising and the devastation is of enormous magnitude," West Bengal state's chief minister, Jyoti Basu, said in an appeal for help. The appeal appeared in Calcutta newspapers.
Since Sept. 18, floods have killed more than 1,000, swept away millions of homes and left 20 million people marooned or homeless in India and neighboring Bangladesh. The death toll in Bangladesh has climbed past 50.
Israeli-Palestinian cease-fire unravels
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Palestinian gunmen battled Israeli soldiers yesterday at isolated army posts in the West Bank and Gaza Strip that have degenerated into virtual free-fire zones, as both sides defied a cease-fire call on the eve of a U.S. attempt to salvage peace-making.
Yesterday's death toll of five was the lowest since the fighting began last week. In addition, 206 people were injured, according to the Palestinians. Overall, 56 people have died and at least 1,300 have been wounded, the vast majority Palestinian.
"The results have been very painful." Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak said, adding that he had called on Israel's security forces "to make a supreme effort to prevent further casualties."
Barak also was battling for political survival at home, trying to appease Arab legislators who are threatening to topple his government about the harsh crackdown on riots in Israel's Arab towns. The internal rebellion, the worst since Israel's founding 52 years ago, has blocked highways and closed schools, paralyzing large parts of northern Israel.
Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat head to Paris on today in hopes that Secretary of State Madeleine Albright can help end the fighting and revive peace talks.
With the Israeli blasting away with heavy weapons, such as rockets launched from helicopters, and with the Palestinians routinely firing automatic rifles, the intensity of the fighting sometimes resembles a war and has surpassed levels seen during the 1987-93 Palestinian uprising and three days of firefights in 1996.
"I have been dealing with such riots since 1987 and ... there has never been anything on this level
— not when it comes to clashes and certainly not when it comes to the use of weapons," said Yisrael Yitzhak, commander of
Israel's paramilitary border police in the West Bank.
the nearest clashes yesterday were again in the chaotic West Bank and Gaza Strip, where a hastily arranged cease-fire quickly unraveled at a pair of chronic trouble spots.
Palestinian television broadcast an appeal in Hebrew to Israeli soldiers not to open fire, and a senior Palestinian official said an international inquiry into Israel's actions would be a condition of reviving the peace talks.
"We think that the Israeli crimes committed against our people attacked the heart of the peace process," said Nabil Abourdeneh, a top aide to Arafat. But Barak's office said he "totally rejected the call for an international investigation."
At one point late yesterday, the Paris talks were almost called off, after Palestinian negotiator Nabil Shaath reportedly said Arafat had no intention of meeting with Barak in Paris. Barak informed the Americans that in this case, he would not go to Paris, the prime minister's office said.
The prime minister only relented after he was informed by U.S. mediators that Arafat was ready to see Barak, the statement said. Arafat spokesman Nabil Aburdenneh has said that for now the Palestinian leader only planned to meet separately with Albright, but that a three-way session — Arafat-Barak-Albright — was possible.
"The cease-fire does not mean anything to us," said Anwar Takakh, joining stone-throwers in Bethelem. "It is between Arafat and Barak."
Without the backing of 10 Arab lawmakers in parliament, Barak's government could collapse, leading to new elections.
Meanwhile, the Israeli army said a 12-year-old boy killed at Netzarim on Saturday was apparently hit by Israel gunfire. The death, caught on camera, shocked viewers around the world.

Third-party candidates want in
Buchanan, Browne Nader demand inclusion in presidential debates
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Shunned from the presidential debate, three third-party candidates did their best yesterday to keep the Republican and Democratic nominees from stealing the show.
Green Party candidate Ralph Nader even hinted that he might get into the auditorium after all.
"The they have rules and I can't say, but I'm heading directly for the auditorium," he said upon leaving a rally at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Aides said a ticket had been donated to Nader, but a campaign spokeswoman could not confirm that.
Meanwhile, just hours before the debate, a judge
threw out a court challenge filed earlier in the day by Massachusetts Libertarians to try to force organizers to include their candidate, Harry Browne.
"The plaintiffs have slept on their rights by waiting until the last minute to seek relief," Suffolk Superior Court Judge Gordon Doerfer ruled. He said intervening in the debates would deprive the public of information it needs about the candidates.
The lawsuit claimed Browne should be included because Massachusetts, which officially recognizes the party, spent $000,000 to help pay for the debate.
Nader also criticized the commission's decision to limit the debate to candidates with more than 15 percent support in national polls. Only the Democrat, Vice President Al Gore, and the Republican, Texas Gov. George W. Bush, qualified to participate.
"They have the keys. This debate commission is a private company created by the two parties," Nader told about 1,000 supporters. "The thing is, why do
we as a society let them control the gateway? Why don't we have many gateways, many debates?"
As he concluded his remarks some students chanted "Let Ralph debate! Let Ralph debate!"
"I feel like Slippery Rock State Teachers and we made the Four of the NCAAs and they won't even let us in the gymnasium." Buchanan said.
Reform party candidate Pat Buchanan, meeting reporters in his Boston hotel, said he planned to debate Nader on the Fox News Channel after the debate.
Buchanan, who has more than $12 million in federal campaign funds to spend, outlined plans to launch an advertising campaign next week in states he says have been abandoned by Republicans, including California, New Jersey and most of New England.
He is aiming for 5 percent of the popular vote in the Nov. 7 election to guarantee that the Reform Party gets federal matching funds again in 2004. Buchanan said the ads would run mainly on Christian radio stations and would highlight local concerns, such as immigration in California and Arizona.
Veto looms over Kansas projects bill
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., is hopeful that a veto threat won't materialize about the $23.6 billion bill for water and energy programs, which contains about $30 million for flood control and other projects in Kansas.
The Senate approved the measure 57-37 Monday, with Roberts and fellow Republican Senator Sam Brownback voting yes.
It passed the House last week 301-118. President Clinton has promised a veto because it would block administration efforts to allow a springtime rise in the Missouri River to protect endangered fish and birds and help upstream recreation.
The dispute pits barge and farming interests against environmental groups, but it is also a regional issue. Upriver interests in Montana and the Dakota oppose those below, where the 2,500-mile waterway flows past Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas and through Missouri before emptying north of St. Louis at the Mississippi River.
have written the White House urging Clinton not to veto the measure.
On Monday, Roberts released a list of Kansas projects included in the legislation, highlighting a new, $100,000 study on how to reduce flooding in the Turkey Creek basin near the Kansas City area by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
That is on top of $353,000 to continue design on the project, which eventually will modify the waterway's channel, build new drainage channels and raise embankments. Last year's appropriation was $400,000.
Roberts. Brownback and several colleagues
Rep. Dennis Moore, D-Kan., said the project will help prevent flooding in Merriam, Kansas City and Johnson County.
"I am very pleased they have placed a high priority on helping local governments fix the situation."
The largest earmark is $5.1 million to finish levee construction along the Arkansas and Walnut rivers, said Rep. Todd Tiahart, a member of the House Appropriations Committee.
"The levee is now almost complete," Tiahrt, R-Kan., said last week. "And it is time to allow the citizens of Arkansas City to live without

Tiahrt and Moore voted for the measure, while Reps. Jerry Moran and Jim Ryun voted against it.
The bill also includes nearly $25 million for maintenance and operation of 17 Corps of Engineers lakes in Kansas.

Congress agrees to national limit for blood alcohol
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Congressional negotiators have agreed to a tough national standard for drunken driving with penalties for states that don't abide. President Clinton called it a "common sense nationwide limit" that will save an estimated 500 lives a year and prevent thousands of injuries.
Under the measure, states would be required to adopt a 0.08 blood alcohol content standard as the legal level for drunken driving by 2004. Those that don't comply would stand to lose millions of dollars in federal highway funds.
"Congress has realized that what happened to me and what has happened to others is wrong," said Millie Webb, national president of Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Webb lost a nephew and a daughter, and she her husband and her then-unborn baby were severely injured in a crash with a driver with a 0.08 blood alcohol content.
Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., a chief proponent of the legislation, said even a 2 percent loss would be considerable, noting that his state gats $750 million a year in federal highway money.
Lauenberg and House sponsors including Reps. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., and Frank Wolf, R-Va. introduced the legislation three years ago. It ran into solid resistance from lawmakers who said it infringed on states' rights and a strong lobbying effort from beverage and restaurant associations.
John Doyle of the American Beverage Institute said the national standard would "have no impact whatsoever" because the average body alcohol content for drunks involved in fatal crashes is 0.17. Doyle also cites National Highway Traffic Safety Administration figures in saying that a 120-pound woman would reach the new legal inebriation level by drinking only two six-ounce glasses of wine during two hours. "It demonstrates we are not talking about the product abuser," he said.
Under the final compromise, states that don't implement 0.08 blood alcohol content by 2004 would lose 2 percent of their federal highway money, with the penalty increasing to 8 percent by 2007.
Made-to-order baby created to save sister
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — In the first known case of its kind, a Colorado couple created a test-tube baby who was genetically screened and selected in the hope he could save the life of his 6-year-old sister.
The sister, Molly Nash, has a rare genetic disease, Fanconi anemia, that prevents her body from making bone marrow. But last week, doctors gave her an infusion of umbilical-cord blood from her newborn little brother, Adam, to try to correct the disease.
Doctors should know in a whether the infusion is helping Molly develop healthy marrow cells.
Screening laboratory-created embryos for genetic diseases before implanting them in a woman is not new. But this is the first known instance in which parents screened and selected an embryo in order to find a suitable tissue donor for an ailing sibling.
"People have babies for lots of reasons: to save a failing marriage, to work the family farm," said Charles Strom, director of medical genetics at the Reproductive Genetics
Institute in Chicago, where Adam was conceived. "I have absolutely no ethical problems with this whatsoever."

Molly was just beginning to show signs of leukemia, which is frequently associated with the disease, when she had the transplant, said John Wagner, her physician at the University of Minnesota. The infusion procedure between siblings has a 90 percent success rate.

"Molly's doing very well," Wagner said yesterday, although she had a slight cold. She was playing on a computer, he said.
As part of her disease, Molly was born without thumbs, but surgeons built some from a finger on each hand. She also had no hip sockets but now can walk with the use of heavy braces.
Fanconi Anemia Research Fund Inc.: http://www.fanconi.org
Her parents, Jack and Lisa Nash of Englewood, Colo., wanted more children but were afraid to conceive because both carry a faulty version of the Fanconi gene, meaning each child would have a 25 percent chance of developing the disease.

a process called preimplantation genetic diagnosis, or PGD. Embryos were created from Lisa Nash's eggs and her husband's sperm. Fertilized eggs were analyzed, and when one was found to be disease-free and a tissue match, it was implanted. The couple had to try the procedure several times before she became pregnant.
the world with the disease.
Lisa Nash, who works as a neonatal nurse, said she and her husband could not knowingly bring another child into
"We wanted a healthy child," she told the Star Tribute newspaper last month. "And it doesn't hurt him to save her life."
Adam was born Aug. 29. On Sept. 26, umbilical cord blood cells from Adam were given to Molly at the University of Minnesota.
If the transplant doesn't take, the next step could be to repeat the process with Adam's bone marrow.
When Molly is healthy, the Nashes plan to have more children through test tube fertilization. Strom said.
Arthur Caplan, director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, said he didn't see anything morally wrong in the Nash case.

All classes and
More than 800 students are enrolled in professor Craig Martin's Biology 100 class. The course, held in 120 Budig Hall, is one of the largest offered by the University of Kansas.

KU instructors handle both massive and tiny numbers of students
y Warisa Chulindra Special to the Kansan
For that matter, imagine lecturing in front of one
yes, one — student.
Imagine lecturing in front of hundreds of students for 50 minutes. Imagine delivering the class material in such an interesting way that students actually stay awake — putting away their newspapers and taking notes.
Classes at the University of Kansas run the gamut from those stuffed inside huge lecture halls to those that would barely fill a coat closet.
"The wonderful thing about the University of Kansas is the variety of class size," said Sally Frost Mason, dean of the college of liberal arts and sciences. "There's a lot of choice."
It takes a certain type of person to teach the largest classes — someone who enjoys teaching the masses. Someone who can perform. Someone with energy.
Craig Martin, professor of biology, is one of those professors. Three years ago, he decided he wanted to teach Biology 100 in the largest classroom on the KU campus—120 Budig Hall.
He already had taught classes of about 200 students but said he was intrigued to teach larger classes of freshmen and nonbiology majors.
"What intrigued me about doing that was that it forced me to expand the breadth of my knowledge," said Martin, a plant physiology specialist. "It scared me a little, to tell you the truth, but someone had to do it."
Viewing the whole thing
With about 800 students filling the lecture hall, the 11:30 Monday, Wednesday and Friday section of Biology 100 is massive.
As students trickle into the 120 Budig, they hear The Daily Demo, a song relating to the class topic for the day. Friday, it was "Clean up your Heart" by Sizzla, for a lecture concentrating on
human heart
martin has a Daily Demo bag with items relating to the day's topic. Throughout the lecture, he pulls out vials of white, transparent caterpillars and a chunk of wood.
"I like to do funny things." Martin said, chuckling.
"I like to do weird things."
Earlier in the semester, when discussing digestion, Martin pulled out a piece of chocolate, pretended it as feces and ate it.
Some students arrive early to get the seat of their choice in the auditorium, which holds 1,000. The floor seats, particularly those at the front, are among the first the fill.
Also filling quickly are the seats in the balcony that have rails in front of them.
Sitting next to him was Seth Stoner, Topea freshman. The two have biology lab together and usually sit together when they can find each other.
"I want to put my feet up and view the whole thing," said Matt Kolcz, Glen Eilyn, Ill., freshman
Kolez and Stoner said they accepted that large classes were a part of attending a large public university. They noted the advantages: They have no homework or quizzes to worry about because their grades are based on four unit tests; there is no pressure to participate in class; it's a class that can be easily skipped because attendance isn't taken; and the two can always borrow notes from someone else.
Kolcz and Stoner remembered the first day of class.
Added Stoner. "I said, 'wow.'"
Throughout class, students slip into the balcony, and some even leave.
"I thought, 'this is a big room to be in,'" Kolcz said.
Martin said students sleeping, reading newspapers and leaving early didn't bother him.
"I'm always more surprised at how polite 700 to 800 people can be sometimes," Martin said. "It's amazing."
Four feet across from each other
If Fletcher Powell misses his Haitian 230 class, his instructor will notice.
The Wichita senior is enrolled in the smallest class on campus—he's the only student.
The class meets twice a week for an hour and a half in 4048 Wescoe Hall. The room is small and square with five desks, a blackboard and a projector screen.
In other classes, students show up early to claim a favorite seat. But as the lone student, Powell walks in a few minutes before class starts. His instructor, Kiran Jayaram, a graduate student, follows. The two sit about four feet across from each other.
The two talk about their weekend before discussing the assigned readings. Powell asks questions about points he didn't understand, and Jayaram explains, sometimes speaking in English and writing on the blackboard.
"I feel I'm learning a lot more," Powell said. "I think it helps that I like my teacher and look forward to class."
The class is tailored to fit Powell, but there is a downside to that. Jayaram said because Powell was a good student, they often finish lessons early with 30 to 45 minutes remaining. They try to fill the rest of the time by talking about Haitian culture, sometimes taking class outside on warm days.
Not having another student in a foreign language can have its disadvantages.
"The only voice he hears is mine." Jayaram said. "And in learning a language, it's important to accustom yourself to more than one voice to familiarize yourself with the language."
To compensate, Jayaram sometimes invites his Haitian friends to class. Powell said it helped to hear native voices of the language instead of other students like him who were still trying to grasp the language.
Powell has been in large classes and said he didn't pay attention as well. It's a difference he noticed in his Haitian class.
"This way I don't have a choice," Powell said. "I
A goal of informing people
don't really have a choice one way or another if I want to pay attention, which is good."
At KU, introductory classes tend to have hundreds of students while upper-level and specialized courses have single-digit rosters.
College of liberal arts and sciences dean Sally Frost Mason said that large lecture classes were an efficient way to teach introductory classes, and that students could benefit from having a professor teach the course rather than a graduate teaching assistant.
A common concern about large classes is the lack of personal interaction between students and the professor. These classes force students to take the initiative to talk to their professors, Frost Mason said. She has experienced this firsthand, teaching large classes such as Biology 100.
Professors of large classes try to make themselves accessible to students. Biology 100 instructor Martin has Help! sessions twice a week. Students can ask questions or have pointed clarifications.
David Holmes, professor of psychology, teaches the largest class on campus with nearly 1,000 students, a section of Psychology 104. He teaches three other classes — the smallest with 50 students.
During lecture, Holmes projects a picture of himself on the middle screen of the auditorium so students in the balcony know what he looks like. He gets to class half an hour early and stays after class for half an hour so students can ask questions. Holmes said he always was mobbed when he walked in the door.
"As a teacher, my goal is to inform people," Holmes said. "And if I can do it for 1,000 instead of 10. I'm much happier."
Haitian instructor Jayaram said small classes were more laid back and that he didn't have to be as much of an authority figure.
"It's a lot easier because I can get a feel when a student doesn't understand something," he said.

FOOTBALL
In 1973, a soccer player from Mexico made a spectacular save during a match against Brazil. His goal was to prevent the ball from going out of bounds and into the goal. The team won the match by a score of 2-0.
The player's skills were exceptional, and he was known for his ability to control the ball with precision and accuracy. His saves were highly regarded in the field, and they helped to secure a significant victory for his team.

Brothers to face off in intra-state battle

Ervin Holloman, a junior defensive end, plays for the Jayhawks, but his older brother, senior Cliff Holloman, plays defensive tackle for K-State.
This year's Sunflower Showdown does more than just match neighbor against neighbor and friend against friend. This year's Kansas-Kansas State game actually pits brother against brother.
Kansas coach Terry Allen recruited both Holloman brothers, and although he only landed one, he said he was familiar with both.
"Actually, Cliff was always the bigger brother," Allen said. "I think Ervin might be a little faster."
Ervin said that playing against his brother would be a unique experience.
"It's going to be weird because we've never been on different sides of the ball," he said. "We never played on different teams."
However, Ervin said he wasn't certain that his brother would start and that he might be second team now.
"I haven't talked to him about all that," Ervin said. "I don't know what's going on with that. He's been starting the whole season though. I think."
The K-State football Web site lists Cliff on the second team, although he started in 10 games last year.
The Holloman brothers both played at Wichita Northwest High School, where Ervin played one defensive end position, and Cliff played the other.
The brothers then attended Garden City
Community College together. In Ervin's first year at Garden City, he played defensive tackle and his brother played defensive end. The next year, after Cliff left to attend St-State, Ervin played defensive end.
"I liked the coaching staff, and I thought this team had a chance to win some games," he said. "So there was no need to go to Manhattan. They've got about eight or nine defensive linemen already."
Ervin said there were several reasons he came to Kansas rather than following his
brother to K-State.
Ervin and Cliff are the only members of
the family to play a major college sport. One of their younger brothers was a running back at Manhattan High School, but doesn't play anymore. Ervin said that six of his 10 siblings, ranging in age from 36 to 18, would be at Saturday's game against K-State.
Although they share a love for football, Ervin said that he and his brother have totally different personalities.
Ervin said that everybody in his high school knew who Cliff was and probably would have known even if Cliff didn't played football.
"He's more outgoing and very well-spoken," he said. "I don't talk as much as he does. Everybody says he's kind of crazy. I guess you could say he's a little more the wild child."
"I remember one time for Halloween he dressed up like a girl," he said. "He had on some lipstick. He let some girl put lipstick and eye shadow on his eyes. We were in the same class, and I looked over and he had makeup on."
Ervin is recovering from an injury suffered against Oklahoma and didn't practice yesterday. Allen said Ervin had aggravated an old medial collateral ligament strain and bruised his calf.
Ervin said the injury occurred when someone blocked him below the waist from behind.
"I was just running upfield — I was on the back side of a play, and a guy just cut me, and when he cut me, he crawled onto my leg," he said.

Pierce thanks fans for concern, support
By Michael Rigg
By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Former Jayhawk Paul Pierce took time yesterday to issue a thank you to Kansas fans, while the Boston Celtics continued training camp without their star.
"I would personally like to thank all the Kansas fans and the KU family for all the love and support that's been showering upon me throughout this whole ordeal," Pierce said in a statement issued through the Kansas sports information office.
"I'm doing just fine, and I'm on the road to recovery," Pierce said. "I'm looking forward to returning to playing basketball."
Pierce: issued statement of thanks to Kansas fans
ball with the confidence of being better than ever. Thanks again for all the love and support."
Pierce, who plays for the NBA's Boston Celtics, was stabbed outside of a Boston nightclub on Sept. 25. He
was released from the hospital Friday, Sept. 29, after undergoing surgery to repair a pierced lung.
"When you look at getting hit over the head with a bottle, being knocked to the ground, being stabbed multiple times to come out of it in a short time being 100 percent, that's the greatest blessing that any organization can have," he said. "This is tremendous good luck."
Boston police have three suspects in custody in connection to the stabbing. The stabbing motive is still unknown, and Celtics coach Rick Pitino told the Associated Press that he considered Pierce lucky.
Pierce played for Kansas from 1995-98. He averaged 16.4 points per game for the Jayhawks and is fifth on Kansas' all-time scoring list.
"If I was a fortune teller, I would say he'd play, knowing Paul." Pitino said. "But that's up to the doctors and that's up to Paul."
He left Kansas after his junior season and was selected by the Celtics as the 10th pick of the 1998 NBA draft.
Pitino said that he expected Pierce to play in Boston's season opener Nov.1.

'Hawks hope to snap losing skid at K-State
By Sarah Warren

Kansan sportswriter
Mending their broken hearts after two tough five-game losses in a week, the Kansas volleyball team will try to find solace on the road as they board the bus to Manhattan for tonight's matchup against Kansas State.
Kansas (11-4, 2-4 in the Big 12 Conference) fell to Baylor last Wednesday and to Texas Tech last Saturday, succumbing each time to rally scoring in the fifth game. Now the Jayhawks face the Wildcats, who were ranked No. 24 before falling to Missouri in three games Saturday night.
we've had two tough five-game losses and then we'll go play another ranked team," said coach Ray Bechard after Saturday's loss to Texas Tech. "That's how it is in this conference. It doesn't get any easier."
Actually, the Wildcats fell out of the rankings after Saturday's loss to Missouri. But at 9-4 overall and 3-2 in the Big 12, the Wildcats are still a formidable opponent. K-State has won every meeting with the Jayhawks since the 'Hawks won a five-game squeaker at Allen Fieldhouse in 1994. Making things more difficult for the Jayhawks is that they haven't won in Manhattan since 1993.
Kansas, however, has some positives to take into the match, which begins at 7 tonight at Ahearn Fieldhouse.
During last Saturday's match against Texas Tech, Kansas gained 84 kills — their second highest kill total of the season. In the kills category, senior outside hitter Amy Myatt led the Jayhawks with 19 kills, followed by senior outside hitters Nancy Bell with 17 and Danielle Geronymo, who recorded 18 and a career-high four solo blocks.
In addition to leading the team in kills, Myatt recorded her 700th career kill against the Red Raiders. Her career total now stands at 718.
The Wildcats, in comparison, had a pair of outside hitters, junior Liz Wegner and freshman Lauren Goehring, leading them in their match against Missouri. Wegner recorded 17 kills, while Goehring took a career-high 15 against the Tigers in Columbia. Mo.
In devising a strategy for handling the Wildcats, Bechard said he would continue stressing the things he had specifically stressed all season — digs and passing. Kansas recorded 67 digs against the Red Raiders.
Myatt said that in order to beat the Wildcats, the Jayhawks must keep up the high numbers and fight for every dig, block and kill.
"We've just got to get a game plan and keep fighting," Myatt said. "It's going to go our way one of these times."

Columns help in-state rivalry, trash talking just for fun
I'm a little depressed today.
I'm not writing the Kansas State column for the K-State/Kansas sports column exchange this year. If I were normal, I would be happy to have shrugged this duty off to some other columnist. But for some reason, probably pride, I feel as though it's my duty to write that column.
Last year, I received around 150 threatening e-mails after my anti-K-State column ran in the Collegian, the student newspaper for Kansas State University. Got them from both coasts. They were from students, professionals, even professors. One guy told me he was going to drag my dismembered body with his truck. He didn't say what he was going to do with my limbs. Maybe they got the pleasure of riding shotgun in his truck.
Heck, even my own roommate's little brother sent me a message so laced with profanity that I felt like washing my own mouth with soap after reading it.
Jerk.
In most cases, it was laughable. It's a fun rivalry. But after a while, after reading too many threats on my computer, I began to lose faith in our sister university to the west.
How serious do you take this rivalry? Too seriously? If a K-State student wrote something horrible about Roy Williams, would you blow a gasket?
Turns out I may have lost a buddy because of that column. I went to high school with the long snapper at K-State, Neal Gosch. Neal and I, man, we used to play hoops together all the time. Neal's a really good guy. Good ball player, too. My buddy T.J. "T-Love" Lervik told me Neal kind of thinks I'm a jerk now. Maybe I am.
The things I said about K-State weren't meant to be taken too seriously. Yeah, I meant it when I said they play a weak schedule. But when I called them ugly and stupid, I was just having fun with them. You know, a little trash talk for the rivalry. In the case of K-State versus Kansas, you have to talk trash before the game, because once the ball is kicked off, the only team talking is K-State.
If I were to write a serious column to be sent to the Collegian, what would it say? I couldn't do it. It'd be too self-degrading. It'd simply read, "K-State, please don't hurt us."
That column's not any fun for Kansas readers or K-State readers. But a little trash talk, that's fun.
So K-State students, if you are out there, please understand that I really don't see many differences between our two universities. There are the stereotypes: You all are hicks, and we're all preps. But those are just stereotypes.
Please remember, if you get really mad after reading our columnist's Friday column, it's meant to be taken lightly, to keep our rivalry alive. At least, it was when I wrote it. There's no need to threaten anyone's life.
I'm sorry I won't get a chance to settle my old score between us, but life goes on.
And Neal, old buddy, I hope your team loses, but I'm hoping every long snap you have is right on the money.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 4). Flights of fancy capture your imagination this year, but common sense keeps you grounded. Dreams you share with a loved one motivate you in October. Reality rears its ugly head around November. Something new is required, and you'll find it in December. Make the changes you require at home in January. Settle into a routine you can live with and love in February. Travel plans should materialize in June. Do what an older woman wants in July. Do what a little birdie tells you in September.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
Don't try something you just learned, in a work-related setting. Instead, carefully watch what the others are doing. A breakdown is likely, and you'll look better if you prevent it than if you cause it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
Don't let a loved one run off with your money. He or she might spend it foolishly. That includes your kids, of course. You may feel generous, but if the other person's irresponsible, you could end up with buyer's regret.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6.
Somebody you live with could be difficult. Be gracious and forgiving, just because you can. Don't worry about who is right or wrong; try to stay cheerful. That will help you come up with a good idea.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) --- Today is a 7.
Carefully review information you're receiving, even if it's from a reliable source. Catch the error before it gets far, and you could save others' time and money. That could make more time and money for you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
A friend's fabulous scheme sounds great, until you look at it closely. Don't fund it with your savings, or you could lose the money and the friendship! An older person you don't always like could advise you well in this situation.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 5.
Try not to get into an ego battle with the person who signs your paycheck. That's not a good idea, even if you win, you lose. Watch your words and tone of voice, too. This may seem unimportant in a couple of days, so don't quit over it.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
Travel and long-distance communications are fraught with peril. Postpone sending valuable correspondence or packages. Your chances of getting through are better if you start later, even later today. A delay could be a good thing.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5.
Don't trust a friend's recommendation if money's involved. That includes the money you have in investments, as well as the money in your pocket.
What at first seems like a fabulous deal could be a huge disappointment.
Saquittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 5.
Sigmarus (NOV. 22-Dec. 21) is a lady. Some tricky negotiations are going on, and some changes are being made. If you stay on the sidelines, you'll be less likely to make one yourself. An opportunity may open up for you because somebody above you falls flat. Watch out!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
Work could interfere with your travel plans, but that's OK. If you work, you could benefit more than you expected. If you travel, it could cost more than you thought. So keep working and be happy!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) --- Today is a 6.
If somebody at home or a close relative is having difficulties, offer your shoulder to cry on. Don't open your wallet far, however. That might make matters worse.
Don't follow a loved one's financial advice, either.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8.
Pieces (Feb. 19- March 20) — Today is all 8.
If your partner or a close friend is having trouble at work or home, offer support and prayers. Don't get directly involved. You can't fix the situation that way. Besides, this tempest may be past by tomorrow. No point in your getting all upset, too.

KANSAS BASKETBALL
Chuck Hayes scheduled a visit with a Midwestern school with a strong basketball tradition — but it's not Kansas.
Courted Kansas recruit to visit St. Louis Friday
Hayes, a 6-foot-6 forward from Modesto, Cali., told Dave Teepal of Rivals100Hoops.com yesterday that he will visit St. Louis University this weekend. Along with the Billikens, Hayes is being heavily recruited by the 'Hawks, Kentucky, Texas-EI Paso, and California-Berkley. Hayes has stated that St. Louis and California are at the top of his list, even though Kansas and Kentucky have reportedly offered him scholarships.
Hayes made his official visit to Kansas the weekend of Sept. 22.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"He really wants to go to a school where he can develop and work on his shooting," Charles Hayes, Hayes' father, told Telep. "He needs good coaching. He needs to learn about the business of basketball; he himself might want to be a coach someday."
While the scholarship offer to Hayes by Kansas reportedly remains on the table, the Jayhawks are looking at Friday. Oct. 13 as the biggest recruiting day of the season. That Friday, highly touted recruits Aaron Miles, Jamal Sampson, Josh Childress and Michael Lee visit Kansas for Late Night with Roy Williams.

Baseball managers fired as regular season closes
After a season in which there were no managerial changes for the first time since 1942, pink slips are being handed out the off-season.
MLB
Showalter, the only manager in the Diamondbacks' three-year history, won the National League West in 1999, but lost in the first round of the playoffs to the Mets and fell to third place this season.
Arizona's Buck Showalter, Cincinnati's Jack McKeon and Pittsburgh's Gene Lamont were all fired a day after the regular season ended.
Reds general manager Jim Bowden said he would wait until the playoffs end to choose a replacement for McKeon, last year's National League Manager of the Year.
The Pirates (69-93), who finished fifth in the National League Central, 26 games behind St. Louis, will head into a new stadium with a new manager next year.
Tampa Bay's Larry Rothschild won't join the list of unemployed skippers, although three of his coaches were fired — bench coach Bill Russell, bullpen coach Orlando Gomez and hitting coach Leon Roberts.

Runners finish fifth at Jamboree
Team encouraged after senior's return to leadership role
By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswrite
If Saturday's performance at the Oklahoma State Jamboree is any indication of the future, the Kansas men's cross country can expect to improve all of its expectations for this season.
Kansas' finished fifth out of 20 teams at the Jamboree and competed against several ten teams
in the country,
in cluding
Arkansas and
Oklahoma
State, which
finished second
and third
in the tournament.
Cross Country
Junior Brent Behrens was the Jayhawks' top finisher. He said the men's team was on the verge of having a breakout meet.
"We've been waiting for this to happen," Behrens said. "Coming into the year we had high expectations, and Saturday we showed what we can do. We're getting a lot better, and I'm definitely excited about finishing fifth."
"We need to come to every meet expecting to do that well," Redwine said. "If we act like we were surprised by our performance, then we would be bringing down our expectations."
Coach Stanley Redwine said he was not surprised by the men's performance at the Jamboree and added that the men needed to keep expecting to succeed.
The Jamboree's field gave the team an idea of how hard it still needs to work to contend for the Big 12 Conference Championships. Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech were some of the teams that participated in Saturday's meet, and Behrens said that this year's Big 12 Championships should be a lot different from the previous one.
"I'm not going to straight out say that we're going to win it." Behrens said. "But if we keep improving and work hard, I think we'll have a good shot at finishing in the top three."
The Saturday return of senior Charlie Gruber didn't just give Kansas more team points, but he also brought much needed leadership back to the team.
Redwine said that Gruber's presence brings out the best in the entire squad.
"It's always good to get a guy back who can jump into your top five," Redwine said. "But with
"We need to come to every meet expecting to that well. If we act like we were surprised by our performance, then we would be bringing down our expectations."
Charlie, we get leadership, and he's there to pick everyone on the team up."
Stanley Redwine men's cross country coach
Redwine said that he also had been encouraged by the aggressiveness that the men showed in the Jamboree because he said that was something the team needed to improve on to compete with the top powers in the Big 12.
"I was happy with how hard we ran on Saturday, and even when we were making mistakes, they were because guys were trying too hard." Redwine said.
The Jayhawks have one more test on Saturday, Oct. 14 at the Chili Pepper invitational in Fayetville, Ark., before heading to Boulder, Colo., for the Big 12 Championships.

Final home matches
Soccer seniors see one last shot at glory
SUNDAY, MAY 20TH

Their playing styles, backgrounds and memories about the team may differ, but for the seven seniors on the Kansas women's soccer team, this weekend will be their last chance to play in Jayhawk uniforms on their home turf.
After squaring off with Texas Tech at 4 p.m. Friday at SuperTarget Field, Kansas will play host to its final home game this season against Colorado at 1 p.m. Sunday.
"I'm excited, but it's also going to be very sad and sentimental," said senior forward Colleen Colvin. "We spent four years playing on this field, good times and bad times. There are a lot of memories here."
Colvin, who is tied for first on the Kansas all-time goal-scoring chart with 10 goals, said she and the other members had worked hard to build the program.
"We went through a lot of coaches, but we stuck with it, and we're here now." she said. "We have a great coach and a great program, and things are finally coming together. And I'm glad that I stuck through it."
The Minnetonka. Minn., native said her best memory was beating Missouri on Sept. 8, 1998 at home.
"That was a big win for us," she said. "It was the first time we ever beat Missouri."
Senior defender Emma Di Cesare, the co-captain who transferred from South Alabama with coach Mark Francis in 1999, said her best memory was still yet to come.
"Maybe it'll be this year, qualifying for the Big 12 Tournament," she said.
Di Cesare decided to come to Kansas because she wanted to be coached by Francis and compete at the higher level of competition that the Biz 12 Conference offered.
"It was a good decision," she said. "If I had never come here and coach never allowed me to or whatever, I would've always wondered."
Although Di Cesare was named the Jayhawks' defensive MVP last year, she was reserved about her accomplishment with the Jayhawks.
"I was a sweeter last year, so the girls who played in front of me made my job very easy," said the Brampton, Ontario, native. "I don't think I've been playing well. I don't feel like I've
been contributing as much as I can be."
Francis, who took charge of the program after the team finished last in the Big 12 during the 1998 season, said he had enjoyed working with the seniors.
"When I took the program over, it was kind of a hard situation to them because they were recruited by somebody else." Francis said. "Anytime there's changing coaching, it's always tough for players. But they were very open to new things, new ideas, and adapted what we were trying to teach them very well."
Francis said that the departing seven senior players would leave a series of big holes. Besides Colvin and Di Cesare, the Jayhawks will lose defenders Johanna Larsson and Kylie Watts, midfielders Meghann Haven and Katie Lents and forward Lindsey Horner.
"It's a lot of people. It's one-third of our squad." Francis said. "We're losing people from each position. So we're very busy recruiting right now."

Lineman accepts responsibility for six sacks

Six times on Saturday was six times too many for Kansas offensive lineman Marc Owen.
Kansas' senior center thinks a quarterback should never get sacked, especially when it's a quarterback such as Dylan Smith, who is on the move more than a U-Haul.
Owen and the other linemen allowed six sacks in Saturday's 34-16 loss at Oklahoma. A few of the sacks could be attributed to good Sooner coverage down field, Kansas coach Terry Allen said.
"We sometimes held on to the ball too long." Allen said.
Blocking 's a conspicuous art. Sometimes what looks like one player's fault is actually another's. Sometimes plays unravel because of great coverage. If receivers can
not get open, often the quarterback will hold the ball in search of a better opportunity, even if it does not materialize. Other times, the rush simply is too good.
Allen and Owen have different views on what caused the six collapses.
Owen does not straddle the fence about whose fault the sacks were. He was offered a variety of alibis, but he accepted none. The mistakes could have been because of a good defense.or bad receiver's routes or a play that took too long to develop. But Owen, all 305 pounds of him, carries the weight that goes with defending the guy with the ball.
"They were all our fault," Owen said. "Nobody should ever sack your quarterback."
of protection. Because of his ability and tendency to roam, the offensive line must protect in a different fashion than for a drop-back passer who stands in the quarterback's pocket at all times.
Smith, the Jayhawk's senior signi-
cal caller, calls for a different type
"With a quarterback like Dylen, you learn to maintain your blocks." Owen said.
Owen is concerned about Kansas State's ferocious defense in Saturday's 1 p.m. game with the Wildcats — K-State already has garnered 18 sacks. Owen thinks Kansas needs to do something different because the Jayhawks are in for a much bigger battle than the one in Norman, Okla.
"They had a pretty good defense," Owen said. "But nothing compared to K-State's. I won't say we weren't ready for Oklahoma. We just had some things go wrong."

Sand volleyball combines casual with competition
By Aaron Johnson sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
Intramural football has a competitor during this fall season — sand volleyball.
The nature of intramural sand volleyball is casual and laid back, said some of this year's players.
"Sand volleyball is usually competitive," said Tom Turner, Overland Park senior. "Although it is laid back as far as the major intramural sports go."
Jason Krone, director of intramural sports, said sand volleyball usually brought out a casual crowd compared to the more popular sports of flag football or basketball.
Krone said he felt the season had run smoothly thus far, and expected competitive play in each of the divisional playoffs.
playoffs will begin this week, and all 60 teams are involved in the playoff system.
The playoff system works the same as all the other intramural tournaments, where single elimination provides a competitive atmosphere.
"The season has been fairly successful," said Graham Moyer, Overland Park freshman. "The only problem has been the large number of no-shows on game days."
Teams not showing up have also been a concern to Krone, although he made it clear that forfeits were not unusual in intramural sports.
"The league is well run," said Casey Lemos, Derby freshman and member of the Lambda Chi Alpha 1 intramural sand volleyball squad. "I was impressed with the quality of play in many teams."
The competitiveness is not the only thing that draws these athletes to the sand.
"It gives us a great opportunity to come out and have fun and be active," said Steve McGhee, Shawnee freshman. "It's a nice break from partying and attending classes."
Other intramural sports such as floor hockey, volleyball and a best-ball golf tournament are scheduled to start soon. For information check with the intramural office at 208 Robinson Center.

able to play better day against. "I'll be there," he said. "Guaranteed. Somehow. They're getting me a brace to put on it to make sure I don't get hit, so I'll be there."
Allen said that Ervin was a key player in his defense because he helped keep teams from double-teaming nose tackle Nate Dwyer.
"Ervin really helps because of his size and strength." Allen said.

Carolyn Cornelison, who has a doctorate in philosophy and is a speaker with the Anheiser Busch Consumer Awareness and Education Speaker Buereau, shared personal stories to deter students from drinking.
Cornelison said statistics showed that 76 percent of students were responsible, moderate drinkers. However, she said, the purpose of her speech was to reach the 24 percent who were out of control.
Cornelison began her speech with stories of her life as a student-athlete in high school and college. She said her devotion to an alcohol-free life ended when a leg injury sidelined her high school basketball career.
A group of friends from college convinced her no harm would come from a little drinking and clubbing.

Cornellson said her night ended with her head in a toilet.
During her first four years at Georgia State University, Cornelison became an avid partner in her sorority and softball team. Ever the competitor, she enjoyed drinking games and said she was good at them.
Cornelison said 21 drinking-related deaths on college campuses were caused not by vast consumption or certain mixtures, but by people blacking out or passing out and being left alone.
"I liked how she talked about her own experiences," said senior volleyball player Danielle Geronymo.
Cornelison continued through her college life with horror story after horror story of crazy things she had done while under the influence of alcohol. In college, she received three DUI citations, tried marijuana and came close to killing herself and her sister in a car wreck.
Years of advice and fear of losing her job led her to seek help, and February 4.1994, was the last time
she drank. Since then, she has dedicated her time to lecturing student-athletes about the dangers of alcohol.
Cornelison's biggest message was not to drive drunk. She said she experienced most of her problems because of driving intoxicated.
The audience was receptive, and at
times had the full crowd smiling and laughing.
"She took her life and shared it with everyone," said sophomore volleyball player Jennifer Kraft. "And showed that even if you are headed in the wrong direction, there is still a way out."

Big 12 Football Nebraska drops to second in ranking
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — The No. 2 Nebraska Cornhuskers know the only way to get their No.1 ranking back is to win — and win big.
Nebraska (4-0) has only really been pushed once this season, but the 'Huskers haven't really dominated in three games they were expected to. As a result, Nebraska dropped behind Florida State for the top spot in the Associated Press poll this week.
"We haven't been winning like we'd like to be winning and like a No.1 teamat home should maybe be winning," said receiver Matt Davison.
Last week, in a 42-24 win against Missouri, the 'Huskers allowed 492 yards of offense and scored one offensive touchdown in the second half.
The week before against Iowa, the Hawkeyes took the opening drive for a touchdown and were within 15 points for most of the second half, pulling away late for a 42-13 win.
Huskers
The 'Huskers still hold the top spot in the USA Today/ESPN coaches' poll, but Davison said he understood why some questioned whether Nebraska really was the best team in the nation.
"You play a team at home, you should probably put a team away a little bit better than we did," Davison said.
Notre Dame is the only opponent to Notre Nebraska with a winning record this season, and the Fighting Irish took the 'Huskers to overtime in the second week of the season.
Next up is Iowa State, which, like Nebraska, is off to a 4-0 start and is 1-0 in the Big 12 Conference.
"We're anxious to get to Ames to see how good we are." Nebraska coach Frank Solich said.
Nebraska fell from 27th nationally to 54th nationally in total defense at 289.7 yards after the Missouri game. Solich said the "Huskers need to get better on third downs, where opponents are 22-for-61.
"That's one thing that's not been great this year. It's not been a deal where it's been three-and-out," Solich said.
The 'Huskers have only recovered one fumble and have five interceptions.
While the defense stood out last week, the offense also hasn't been overwhelming with 21 offensive touchdowns. Eight have come from Eric Crouch passes and seven on Crouch runs. But after the junior quarterback, the production drops off considerably. Dan Alexander is the only other "Husker to rush for more than one touchdown with
four.
"I know we have very high potential. But more frustrating than what other people are saying about us is looking at ourselves," Alexander said. "We've got to look at ourselves and say, 'Hey, we haven't played our best game yet and we're still not living up to our potential.'"
"For me that's a lot more frustrating than the fans or any poll can say about how good of a team we are," he said.
The 'Huskers aren't going to panic as long as they still hold one No. 1 ranking and remain unbeaten. There are still seven games on the regular-season schedule and a 32nd straight bowl game seems all but assured.
Whether that is the Orange Bowl, which will decide the national championship, is up to the "Huskers. Davison said.
"As long as we keep winning games and stay undefeated I think we understand that we're going to be right where we want to be come January," he said
Undefeated Cyclones prepare for'Huskers
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa — The marketing slogan Iowa State has built around its football team is "Not just another season."
And because the Cyclones are enjoying a season unlike any other in decades, that ad campaign appears to be dead on.
Not only are the Cyclones off to a 4-0 start for the first time since 1980, but when No. 2 Nebraska visits Saturday, both teams will be undefeated, which hasn't happened in 35 years.
Seasons without a loss aren't new to the Cornhuskers, but they're rare in Ames, which is why the Cyclones — 17-point underdogs — are claiming this game as one of the program's
IOWA STATE
CYCLONES
biggest ever.
"It's the game with the most meaning since I've been here," said Cyclones coach Dan McCarney, who is in his sixth season.
"We have an opportunity before us, an opportunity to show that we're different from
the teams in the years past," senior center Bruns said.
However, McCarney made sure to issue warnings that this game is only one of 11 on the schedule, and there's two more months of football left to play -- including six more games in the Big 12.
"This is not the end of the season if we're not able to pull off one of the greatest upsets in college football this year," he said.
"We want to try to turn this game into a good match up
The Cyclones' history against Nebraska has been terrible; the Cornhuskers own the series with a record of 77-15-3 and have won seven straight games. Since the Cyclones' 19-10 victory in 1992, Nebraska's average margin of victory is more than 40 points.
instead of a complete mismatch, which is what it's been since I've been here," McCarney said. "It's never been a four-quarter game, or a three-quarter game. Many of them have been over at half-time."
During yesterday's press conference, the Cyclones paid their respects to Nebraska's deep football tradition, but also dismissed the notion that it would affect their play.
"We don't have to beat everything about them," Rosenfels said. "We just have to beat them for 60 minutes."
"We're not playing 20 years worth of Nebraska, or 30 years, or 40 years," Bruns said. "We're playing the 2000 Nebraska Cornhuskers."

NHL
Dallas, Colorado to rematch in opener
The Associated Press
The first puck of the NHL season drops in Dallas — the same place last season came to a sudden end.
Less than four months after New Jersey's Jason Arnett beat Dallas goalie Ed Belfour in double overtime to win the Stanley Cup, Reunion Arena welcomes the Colorado Avalanche, the team the Stars beat to advance to the finals the last two seasons.
"There is a real respect level between the teams," said Dallas coach Ken Hitchcock. "There is a really intense individual competition."
The Stars and Avalanche, who battled through consecutive sevengame Western Conference finals, will play the NHL opener tonight the only game on the schedule
Tonight's opener starts a season in which Minnesota and Columbus join the league and Mark Messier comes back to the New York
Rangers.
The NHL resumes a regular schedule tomorrow, with Ottawa at Boston, Chicago at Buffalo, Vancouver at Philadelphia, Detroit at Calgary and St. Louis at Phoenix. All 30 teams, including expansion clubs Columbus and Minnesota, will play on Saturday.
Minnesota is back in the league for the first time since the North Stars packed up for Dallas after the 1992-93 season. The Wild start out with a two-game road trip that will take them to Anaheim on Friday and . Phoenix on Saturday. Minnesota will play its first home game on Wednesday, Oct. 11 against Philadelphia.

The additions of Minnesota and Columbus conclude the latest round of expansion, which also
The Blue Jackets play their first game Saturday night when the Chicago Blackhawks come to Columbus.
brought Atlanta and Nashville into the league in the past two seasons. Since the first expansion in 1967, the NHL has grown from the "Original Six" franchises to 30.
While commissioner Gary Bettman welcomes Minnesota back, New York will cheer the return of its captain Messier to the Rangers when they play their home opener Oct. 11. Just as when Messier first came to New York, the Rangers will be on the road for a game (Saturday at Atlanta) before No.11 can pull on his home white jersey.
Arnott's sudden-death goal in Game 6 of the Cup finals ended Dallas' hope of repeating as league champion. The Devils begin their quest for two straight titles when they raise their championship banner at home against the Montreal Canadiens, owners of 23 Stanley Cups, on Friday night.
Nashville and Pittsburgh open with a two-game series in Japan on Friday and Saturday at midnight (EDT).
The Boston Bruins will open a season with Ray Bourque for the first time since he was a rookie in 1979. Bourque re-signed with the Avalanche after he was dealt by the Bruins late last season so he could have a chance to win his first championship ring.
The Avalanche start a countdown on opening night as goaltie Patrick Roy needs only four victories to reach 448 and break Terry Sawchuk's career victory record.
Goalie tries to avoid record-breaking hype
The Associated Press
DENVER — Poised to break one of the most hallowed records in NHL history, Patrick Roy vowed to distance himself from the hype that seems inevitable during the next few weeks.
A
The television news will be limited to current events and a peek at the five-day forecast. The newspaper affords a glance at the stock market, but stories about Roy and the Colorado Avalanche will be avoided.
This is the strategy Roy believes will keep him focused on earning the four victories necessary to pass Terry Sawchuk as the NHL's winningest goaltender.
"I don't want to visualize that." Roy said Monday. "For some reason, it seems very far to me. Every time I is getting close to something really special in the past, it
was taking me forever to get it. I don't want to focus on that."
With 444 career victories, Roy needs three more to tie Sawchuk, who played long before goalies began crouching in the crease wearing intricately painted masks.
Roy, born six years before Sawchuk died in 1971, has made an effort to learn about the goalie's life off the ice out of respect for his accomplishments.
His chase to supplant Sawchuk in the record book starts today when the Avalanche open the season on the road against the Dallas Stars, the team that eliminated them from the playoffs each of the last two seasons.
"He's broke a few records since Ive been playing with him," said Colorado forward Adam Deadmarsh. "He's been pretty much the greatest goaltender of all time. It's been an honor to play with him, that's for sure."
Roy will turn 35 tomorrow but has displayed no sign of deterioration. He lost about 12 pounds during the off season in an effort to add quickness, flexibility and stamina.
"This is the best I've felt for a long time," he said. "The last time I felt like this, I was probably 28, 29. I really feel like I'm moving well, but it's not a guaranteed thing. One year, I came in in very good shape, but I was not as hungry. Right now, I feel
like I'm hungry."
Lord Stanley knows Roy can't get much more consistent.
An analysis of 100-game intervals shows that Roy has won at least 49 games during each of the eight segments. In the 41 games since his 800th, Roy's winning percentage is .641 — one of the best stretches of his career.
Stability in the net is one of several things going for the Avalanche as the team tries to regain its championship form of 1956-96.
On defense, the Avs also have a formidable top duo of Adam Foote and Ray Bourque.
"We have some very high expectations of this hockey club," said coach Bob Hartley. "There's no need to hide anything. Looking at the depth of this hockey club, the skill level, the leadership, we're definitely going to be a very good contender for the Cup."

Theater brings Greek tragedy to America
The Associated Press
ATHENS, Greece — The story may be ancient, but the production is modern. And for the New York audience seeing it this month, the performance will be all Greek to most of them. That's exactly the point.
After awakening Rome's dormant Colosseum from a 1,500-year nap with three performances in July, the Greek National Theater is bringing "Oedipus Rex" to New York today for six shows.
Ancient playwright Sophocles' tale of Oedipus, the tragic hero who kills his father and marries his mother, is the theater's third production in the United States in the last four years.
Performances are conducted in contemporary Greek because even for a native speaker, ancient Greek is something of a foreign language, said artistic director Nikos Kourkoulos.
But for an audience that doesn't understand the language, Greek would be just Greek if translations in the native language of each country were not projected.
"The audience can read what the actors are saying and watch the sentiment out of which everything they are seeing is expressed." Kourkoulos says.
And for most, seeing how the Greeks express themselves is the draw.
Ancient tragedy has given its lights to all the dramatic repertoire since antiquity," says Grigoris Valtinos, who plays the title role in this year's production. "Ancient tragedy is very popular everywhere. I want to believe it also is for the Americans as well."
Kourkoulos said that while the United States, Canada and Australia — countries with large Greek populations — have been stops on the tour, the theater draws many spectators who do not speak the language.
The theater is also preparing for its South American debut, with stops in Mexico, Chile, Argentina and Uruguay from October through November, making 2000 the theater's most prolific year with more than 25 performances on the international stage.
Unlike a traditional musical, though, the chorus only "dance" might be considered a rhythmic stomping of the canes that aided their walking earlier as they flowed around a sea of 40 ghostly plaster figures, the only props flanking a T-shaped, black stage.
"Tragedy has to travel." Valtinos says.

NBA
Jordan seeks success for Wizards
The Associated Press
WILMINGTON, N.C. — Michael Jordan embarked on his first full season as Washington's president of basketball operations yesterday when the Wizards opened training camp in his home town.
This time, there won't be any excuses.
Last season, Jordan arrived in mid-year and was forced to deal in with someone else's cards. This year, he's in charge from the start.
When Washington starts the season Tuesday. Oct. 31 at Orlando, it will be with a
WIZARDS
roster revamped by Jordan, with a coach he hired and a front-office he restructured. This is Jordan's team, and everyone in the organization knows where his standards are set.
"Everybody knows Michael is a very competitive person and he very much wants to develop a
winning attitude with the Wizards," said coach Leonard Hamilton, who was lured away from the University of Miami by Jordan during the offseason. "Everyone here knows he expects success."
Jordan, who grew up in Wilmington and went to North Carolina in nearby Chapel Hill, attended the first day of training camp at North Carolina-Wilmington's recreation center, but opted for a low profile
low profile.
Jordan popped in and out of the morning practice and spent the last half hour watching from a side court. He left as practice was winding down.
and tried to deflect focus to the players when approached by reporters.
Darrell Walker finished the season as interim coach, but Washington limped in at 15-23 and missed the playoffs for the 12th time in 13 seasons. Jordan brought in Hamilton, a career college coach who made his mark with fundamentals and discipline, to change the team's attitude.
Jordan, whose Chicago teams won six NBA championships, became part owner and president of the Wizards on Jan. 19 and two weeks into his tenure fired coach Gar Heard in an effort to rejuvenate his new team. That move turned into a fiasco when the Golden State Warriors would not release Rod Higgins, whom Jordan wanted as his next coach.
"I don't think there's anything magical — I think it's just good old fashioned hard work and execution." Hamilton said. "This is very simple. You roll your sleeves up, go to work and be as sound fundamentally as possible, and that's all it takes."
Addition of players excites Lakers
The Associated Press
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — The Los Angeles Lakers didn't stand pat after winning their first NBA championship in 12 years last June.
Those who remain believe the addition of Horace Grant, Isaiah Rider and Greg Foster will make them better.
"I think they were some nice additions," Shaquille O'Neal said Monday — a day before the league's 29 teams started practice for the upcoming season. "Portland gave us some trouble at the (power forward and shooting guard) spots last year. Now, we're covered."
"I like the team we have here. I think those guys are going to have
Grant will start at power forward
—a clear upgrade at the position.
Rider — a proven scorer — might start, but even if he doesn't, he figures to play extensively.
I like the fact that we got bigger, added a slashing scorer," Rick Fox said, referring to Rider.
"It does feel kind of odd. We have a whole new, different team," Kobe Bryant said. "It's tremendously exciting. You bring in veterans who understand the system, fit in automatically."
Grant and Foster played under coach Phil Jackson in Chicago, so they're familiar with the triangle offense.
Concerning Rider, who has had a troubled past, Jackson expressed optimism.
"We know he has to learn, he has to fit in with this group, he has to adapt," Jackson said. "He's a willing person who really wants to turn things around. He's a scorer, he's a good defensive player when he wants to be."
Rider realizes he'll be under scrutiny.
"I'm nervous to a certain extent," he said. "It's exciting, I'm ready to go. They win here. My main thing is to come here, win, be a piece of the puzzle."
O'Neal, who came within one vote of becoming the NBA's first unanimous MVP selection last season, expects no problems with

have improved with the addition of Shawn Kemp and Dale Davis.
It's as simple as the
word:

Cardinals win despite wild pitching
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The Cardinals opened the playoffs with a wild win, beating the bumbling Atlanta Braves despite the most out-of-control pitching in the major leagues in more than a century.
Rick Ankiel, a surprise game one starter for St. Louis, became the first pitcher in 110 years to throw five wild pitches in one innning, but St. Louis held on to a six-run, first-inning lead and beat the Braves 7-5 yesterday.
"Hey, I guess at least I set a record," Ankiel ioked.
With the help of two errors and a fly ball that Gold Glove centerfielder Andruw Jones apparently lost in the sun, St. Louis got its first five batters on in the first against Greg Maddux, who dropped to 10-11 in postseason play.
"A crazy inning where things kind of went haywire," Braves pitching coach Leo Mazzone said. "I guess that's the best way to describe it."
Placido Polanco hit a two-run single as the Cardinals tied a postseason record for runs in the opening inning. Jim Edmonds added a home run in the fourth.
Atlanta made three errors in all, contributing to two unearned runs, just two days after Chipper Jones' ninth-inning error cost the defending National League champions home-field advantage in the first round.
"A couple of mistakes cost us," said outfielder Brian Jordan.
Mike James relieved Ankiel and got the final out of the third, then pitched two more innings for the win. Dave Veres worked the ninth for the save, allowing an RBI single to Jordan.
"I don't care about the save," Veres said. "I wanted us to score four or five more runs in the eighth."
After a day off today, the series resumes with Darryl Kile pitching for St. Louis against Tom Glavine in a matchup of the National League's only
20-game winners, then travels to Atlanta for the weekend.
Ankiel originally was to pitch in game two, but La Russa made the switch Monday.
Given the 6-0 lead, Ankiel stumbled in the third and became only the second pitcher in major league history to throw five wild pitches in an inning. On Sept. 15, 1890, Bert Cunningham did it for Buffalo of the Players League in the first inning of the second game of a doubleheader.
All but one of Ankiel's wild pitches were fastballs, most of them high over the head of catcher Carlos Hernandez. The fifth was a curve that bounced about five feet in front of the plate.
Hernandez also made a leaping grab to prevent what would have been another.
"He threw some outstanding pitches and he threw some funny pitches," said manager Tony La Russa, who repeated Ankiel is his scheduled starter if a
fourth game is needed.
Ankiel threw 12 wild pitches in 175 regular-season innings. More than half (34) of his 66 pitches yesterday were hulls.
Mark McGwire, limited to one plate appearance per game because of knee pain, pinch hit in the eighth and was intentionally walked.
Notes: The Cardinals never have lost a game in a best-of-five series, sweeping the Braves in 1982 and the Padres in 1996. .. St. Louis had the best day record in the National League at 38-30, including 22-9 at home. .. The Braves, in need of offense, pinch hit Javy Lopez for Bako in the second inning. But Lopez lined into an inning-end double play on a diving grab by shortstop Edgar Renteria and ended up 0-for-4. .. The Braves were 11th in the National League with 129 errors. .. Braves pitchers didn't have a 1-2-3 inning until Terry Mulholland retired the side in order in the seventh.
Athletics upend Yankees 5-3 in AL playoff opener
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. — Even the comfort of the postseason couldn't break the New York Yankees out of their deep funk.
Ramon Hernandez drove in two runs, including a go-ahead double in the sixth inning off Roger Clemens, and the Oakland Athletics defeated the struggling Yankees last night in the opener of their American League playoff series, 5-3.
In a matchup of near-opposites, a small-market A's club making its first playoff appearance since 1992 was patient enough to outlast Clemens and a mega-rich Yankees club trying to defend its two-straight World Series titles.
Overpowered for the first four innings, the A's scored four times in the fifth and sixth off a tiring Clemens — he threw 111 pitches in his six innings. The A's held off the Yankees late and took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five AL division series.
The Yankees stumbled into the playoff this year, ending the regular season with a seven-game losing streak, which was the worst skid ever for a team entering the postseason.
They hoped the postseason would provide a panacea. After all, they had won 18 of their previous 19 postseason games heading into this series, including a record-matching 12-straight World Series victories.
The slump prompted Yankees owner George Steinbrenner to issue a statement earlier in the day about his team.
"Tired? Yeah, maybe. Struggling?
Yeah, maybe. But scared? That word ain't even in our vocabulary," he said.
The A's, on the other hand, won eight of their last 10 regular-season games and overtook Seattle for the AL West title, clinching the division title on the final day. Their 21-7 record in September was best in the major leagues.
Journeyman Gil Heredia, making the first postseason start of his nine-year
major league career, allowed three runs on seven hits in six innings for the win.
Oakland closer Jason Isringhausen got three outs for his first postseason save. The Yankees got only three hits in the last seven innings.
Clemens, who now has a 3-4 record in 13 postseason starts, allowed four runs on seven hits in six innings.
The yankees took their first lead in a week when consecutive RBI doubles by Luis Sojo and Scott Brosius gave New York a 2-0 lead in the second inning. That broke New York's streak of 63 innings without a lead.
Clemens struck out five and allowed only one hit, an infield single by Terrence Long, in the first four innings. But the A's finally broke through in the fifth.
Hernandez and Randy Velarde had RBI singles and another run scored on a wild pitch by Clemens, giving the A's a 3-2 lead.
Oakland regained the lead in its half of the inning on two-out singles by Eric Chavez and Jeremy Giambi and the RBI double by Hernandez. Giambi also tried to score on Hernandez's hit, but was thrown out at home.
on a sacrifice fly by Tino Martinez.
The Yankees tied it at three in the sixth
Oakland made it 5-3 in the eighth when Miguel Tejada moved up on a wild pitch by Mike Stanton and scored on a single by Chavez.
Notes: Oakland's Art Howe won in his first postseason game as a manager. ... The Yankees and A's were meeting in the postseason for the first time since the strike-shortened 1981 season. New York swept the A's in three games in the 1981 AL championship series. ... New York's David Justice appeared in his 78th post-season game, setting a major league record. Justice, who has been in the playoffs with Atlanta, Cleveland and now the Yankees, broke the record he had shared with former Yankees and A's star Reggie Jackson.
White Sox lose series opener to Mariners
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Mike Cameron unnerved his former team with his speed, then Edgar Martinez and John Olerud provided the power for the Seattle Mariners.
Martinez hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning after Cameron's stolen base, and Olerud followed with a home run as Seattle beat the Chicago White Sox 7-4 last night in the opener of their AL playoff series.
The consecutive homers came off Chicago relief ace Kelth Foulke, who'd surrendered just nine home runs in 88 innings all season.
Cameron, traded away by the White Sox two years ago to Cincinnati and acquired by the Mariners in the Ken Griffey Jr. deal this February, singled in the tying run in the seventh.
He singled again to start the 10th. Alex Rodriguez popped out before Cameron, once projected as Chicago' next star, was nearly picked off first.
After manager Lou Piniella came out of the dugout and talked to him, Cameron stole second two pitches later.
Martinez, who led the AL with 145 RBI and had a career-high 37 homers, hit a two-run homer to left field. It silenced a crowd of 45,290 that came to see the White Sox's first playoff appearance in seven years. Olerud followed with a long shot to center.
Jose Mesa, who escaped a jam in the White Sox ninth, was the winning pitcher and Kazuhiro Sasaki pitched the 10th for the save. Foulke took the loss
Game 2 in the best-of-five series will be tomorrow at Chicago.
Notes: The White Sox have five players on their roster with previous playoff experience, and they're all position players. The Mariners have 13 who have been in the playoffs before, including four pitchers.
Backup catcher Mark Johnson was left off the roster in place of Josh Paul, even though Johnson spent the entire season with the White Sox and Paul didn't. Paul is a faster runner and can play the outfield, manager Jerry Manuel said.
Chicago's Mike Sirotka and Seattle's Paul Abbott will start Game 2.

Cool weather takes students by surprise
By Luke Wetzel
Special to the Kansan
"Why the hell does it have to be so cold?" Jeff Brodie yelled, tilting his head back to exhale cigarette smoke into the offending gray sky: Brodie, Prairie Village freshman, folded his arms across his T-shirt yesterday while standing outside the Kansas Union, shivering and waiting for class to start.
"It's cold, cloudy and there's a cold breeze," he said. "I don't particularly like cold breezes."
The University of Kansas may have gotten its first taste of winter yesterday, as temperatures dropped into the mid-50s. The National Weather Service predicts a
high of 60 today, with gusty winds and a 60 percent chance for showers. By the end of the week, temperatures will be even colder, with a low of 25 degrees predicted for tomorrow night and Saturday night.
Brodie was not the only student caught off guard by yesterday's cool temperatures. Students across campus appeared underdressed for the abrupt cold.
Greg Wiley, who was wearing shorts at three in the afternoon, was not one of those people.
"I knew several people who went home to change," said Kim Fuchs, Merriam senior.
"It was like 95 degrees yesterday, and now it's cold," said Wiley, Westwood junior. "I just wish the weather would
Fuchs, however, said she loved the cool weather.
"I'm a winter baby," she said. "I love bundling up and going on campus and watching the leaves change color."
By Tuesday, temperatures are predicted to be back in the 60s, but there's no relief in sight for the weekend.
the cold forecast is reminiscent of the Kansas State football team's visit to Lawrence two years ago — a dismal Halloween afternoon when K-State handed Kansas a 54-6 loss, and Mother Nature brought heavy rain and near-freezing temperatures. No rain is predicted for Saturday when the Wildcats play the Jayhawks at Memorial Stadium, but cold
While the Jayhaws prepare to face the Wildcats on Saturday, the American Automobile Association said students could begin preparing now for cold-weather driving. The AAA Web site suggests testing car batteries before winter to make sure they'll last, making sure antifreeze is mixed with an equal portion of water and exercising caution when braking in freezing weather. The Web site also suggests using a defroster and an ice scraper to counteract fogged and frosted windows.
temperatures have been forecast.
Despite yesterday's harbinger of the cold season, concerns about preparing vehicles for winter and stiff Big 12 Conference football competition, some students found comfort in the cool wind and clouds.
EXTENDED FORECAST
Today: High of 60, with gusty winds and a 60 percent chance for showers.
Friday: Cold and partly cloudy, with a high of 55 degrees.
Saturday: Cold and dry, with a low of 25 degrees, and a high of 50.
Monday: Warming temperatures, with a predicted high of 65 degrees.
"I immediately felt better about my life because the world looked worse," said Stephen Davis, Topeka junior. "I'm digging it."

Female chemistry faculty at the University of Kansas are making headway in a traditionally male-dominated field.
The University's chemistry department ranks second in the nation in female faculty ratio, according to a survey published in the Sept. 25 issue of Chemical and Engineering News.
An article, "Women Chemists Still Rare in Academia," noted that the University's department has six tenure-track female faculty members, constituting 25 percent of the faculty. From the surveyed United States universities, the University was one of only two universities where women accounted for more than 20 percent of the faculty.
Rutgers University was No.1 in the survey with 10 tenure-track female faculty members, accounting for 26 percent of its faculty.
"I suspected we were in the top five," she said. "But it's nice to see it in print."
Kristin Bowman-James, professor and chemistry chair, said that she was aware the magazine was doing the survey and that she wasn't surprised by the results.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said the department did not specifically recruit female faculty.
"We are always looking for qualified candidates," she said. "But it comes down to who is the best chemist."
In 1999, women made up 32.5 percent of faculty on the Lawrence campus, according to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning.
In education, Bowman-James said it was difficult to determine whether the number of female faculty members influenced the number of students entering the department. But she said she had noted a large number of women in her classes.
"Last year, when I taught an introductory graduate class, 13 of the 15 students were women," she said. "That's a pretty high ratio."
"Once you start getting women on the faculty, it becomes more attractive to other women chemists," he said.
That's a pretty huge task. Jack Landgrebe, professor of chemistry, said that he had noticed an increase in women entering the graduate program in the past 10 to 15 years. He also thought the number of women in the department helped draw other women chemists.
The chemistry rating comes several months after a similar accomplishment in the physics department. The American Institute of Physics released a study in June that recognized the University as one of only 17 universities nationwide with at least four female faculty members.

Student reaction to debate mirrors nation

University of Kansas students had similar reactions to viewers around the nation about Tuesday's presidential debate.
Education, abortion, social security and taxes were the most useful issues addressed by the presidential candidates, according to data from DebateWatch 2000, which surveyed more than 2,000 viewers across the country after the debate. The national program is directed by Diana Carlin, dean of the Graduate School and International Programs, and is based at the University of Kansas.
Shawna Smith, Hays junior and Carlin's research assistant, said she
thought the DebateWatch results fell in line with college students' perceptions about the debates.
"We seemed to have a fairly young group that didn't talk much about Medicare, Medicaid and prescription drugs," Smith said. "I also think it reflected that young people didn't care as much about character issues and wanted to get down to the issues."
The "early results of the surveys showed that 21 percent of participants thought that leadership and character issues were the least-relevant issues discussed in the debate.
The results also showed that the death penalty, gun control and international relations were the main issues participants wanted to see addressed more in future debates.
Paul Schumaker, professor of political science, said he thought the debates should motivate and energize students about next month's election.
"Typically, students complain that there's no point to care much because the candidates are so similar and the outcomes are so preordained." Schumaker said. "But the outcome of this election is anything but preordained. The differences between the candidates are quite pronounced and could have rather significant consequences for students and the future."
Brian Thomas, Plano, Texas, freshman, said the issues in DebateWatch 2000 were important to him, but so was the character of the candidates.
"To a degree, welfare and social
security are important to me as a student who also has a job." Thomas said. "Given what happened in the Clinton administration, I think character is an important factor to consider in an election. Both candidates have a similar background and upbringing and seem to have good values and morals."
Adam Obley, Topeka sophomore, said he thought education was the most relevant issue addressed for students.
"I think education hits closest to home for us," Obley said. "I think Al Gore has a good stand on it and is pushing for the vote of people our age with his education theme."

Hobart Jackson, associate professor of architecture, co-sponsored Somers' presentation and echoed the artist's words.
"What you are about to hear and see may challenge your basic assumptions." Somers told about 40 people.
"This is an opportunity to see the artwork of a person who advocates diversity," he said.
Somers exhibited his/her computer and mixed media-manipulated photography. With all else加分he/she shed
light on his/her life.
"At a young age, I was very aware of who I was," Somers said. "I had a dick, which everyone knows is a penis, but I also had other attributes."
Somers said that when he/he reached puberty, he/she began developing breasts. Three years ago, an ultrasound showed Somers had ovaries, a collapsed internal vagina and a possible uterus.
"I could be seen as a poly-homosexual, I suppose," Somers loked near the end of the presentation.
But Somers did not allow labels to limit him/her.
"I do not identify as male," he/she said. "Equally, I do not identify as female. I identify as me."
Identifying as an individual allowed Somers to co-found the International Foundation for Androgynous Studies, based at the University of Western Australia. He/she is in the United States for three months as an artist in residence.
Somers said his/her goal was to engender an understanding about androgynous people.
Much of Somers' art depicts nude models, whose genders are hidden through body position, masks or question marks.
"We often think that sex is between the legs." Somers said. "What you've got down there will define who you are."
Some audience members had no problem doing so.
But Somers urged the audience to move beyond conventional thought and to look more deeply at what it means to be human.
"Almost everything Chris was saying I could identify with," said Jan Nutter, a Lawrence resident who was identified as a transsexual 20 years ago.
Nutter, 53, said that it was difficult to feel integrated in a world where gender was polarized between male and female but that she had learned to accept her sexuality.
"by the time you're my age, you've learned to be in your own right," she said. "Your soul can be a different gender than you who are on the outside."

Cool weather takes students by surprise
Special to the Kansan
By Luke Wetzel
"Why the hell does it have to be so cold?" Jeff Brodie yelled, tilting his head back to exhale cigarette smoke into the offending gray sky: Brodie, Prairie Village freshman, folded his arms across his T-shirt yesterday while standing outside the Kansas Union, shivering and waiting for class to start.
"It's cold, cloudy and there's a cold breeze," he said. "I don't particularly like cold breezes."
The University of Kansas may have gotten its first taste of winter yesterday, as temperatures dropped into the mid-50s. The National Weather Service predicts a

"It was like 95 degrees yesterday, and now it's cold," said Wiley, Westwood junior. "I just wish the weather would

By Tuesday, temperatures are predicted
to be back in the 60s, but there's no relief
in sight for the weekend.
The cold forecast is reminiscent of the Kansas State football team's visit to Lawrence two years ago — a dismal Halloween afternoon when K-State handed Kansas a 54-6 loss, and Mother Nature brought heavy rain and near-freezing temperatures. No rain is predicted for Saturday when the Wildcats play the Jayhawks at Memorial Stadium, but cold

important. While the Jayhawks prepare to face the Wildcats on Saturday, the American Automobile Association said students could begin preparing for cold-weather driving. The AAA Web site suggests testing car batteries before winter to make sure they'll last, making sure antifreeze is mixed with an equal portion of water and exercising caution when braking in freezing weather. The Web site also suggests using a defroster and an ice scraper to counteract fogged and frosted windows.
Despite yesterday's harbinger of the cold season, concerns about preparing vehicles for winter and stiff Big 12 Conference football competition, some students found comfort in the cool wind and clouds.

Today: High of 60, with gusty winds and a 60 percent chance for showers.
Saturday: Cold and dry, with a low of 25 degrees and a high of 50.

Senate approves funds for three organizations
Student Senate committees approved funding for three student organizations at last night's meeting.
The Finance Committee approved a bill allocating $320 to Latin American Solidarity. The bill was approved by the Multicultural Affairs Committee two weeks ago but was put on hold by the Finance Committee.
The Finance and University Affairs committees both passed a bill granting $320 to the KU Chess Club and a bill allocating $297 to the Crime and Delinquency Organization.
Senate as a whole must approve the three bills at Wednesday's meeting.
An additional bill to allocate $153 for postage and office supplies to the Korean Student Association was passed in the Multicultural Affairs Committee. The Finance Committee decided to wait until its next meeting to vote on the bill.
Andrew Bailey, Finance Committee member, argued against passing the bill without hearing a representative from the group explain why it needed the funding.
"Seriously, the point of this group (Finance Committee) is not rubber stamping everything, which is what we have been doing so far." Bailey said.
The committee will address the bill again at its next meeting Wednesday, Oct.18.
Police say football season isn't slowing investigation
- Kursten Phelps
The ongoing football season isn't playing a role in the investigation of the two Kansas football players accused of sexually assaulting a female soccer player, Det. M.T. Brown said yesterday.
"We're writing the reports and going through the process," Brown said. "We don't really care if it's football season or not."
One of the two men accused still plays for the Jayhawks, although he is on probation. If charges are filed before the end of the season, he could be dismissed from the team.
The other player was dismissed from the University of Kansas for poor grades, and Coach Terry Allen chose not to renew his scholarship.
Earlier this semester, District Attorney Christine Tonkovich said she had expected the report on the incident by September. However, she said it was hard to get all of the facts of the case with students gone for the summer.

Man attempts entry into women's apartment
An unidentified man attempted to enter an apartment shared by a 26-year-old KU student and her roommate, a 27 year old Lawrence resident, while the women were sleeping early Tuesday in the 2100 block of Heatherwood Drive, Lawrence police said.
Det. M.T. Brown said one of the residents awoke about 3:20 a.m. to a man with a flashlight rustling the blinds on her sliding patio doors. She then saw an arm come through an opening where the man had pried open the door. She began to scream.
Brown said the man pulled his arm back as the resident ran screaming to her roommate's bedroom. The women called 911.
When police arrived, Brown said, the prowler had already left. Pry marks were evident on the door, and the doors were open. Police dusted for fingerprints but have no suspects.
KU graduate cleared of May arson charges
A University of Kansas graduate has been cleared in an attempted aggravated arson case.
The case against Alex M. McCrery was dismissed yesterday, McCrery, a 2000 graduate, was accused of pouring gasoline on the floor of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity house and pulling out a lighter in May.
The court found he had no intent to set the fraternity house on fire.
During the preliminary hearing, which was continued from two weeks before, McCryer's attorney argued that McCryere repeated told officers last spring that he did not intend to burn the house down and would not hurt his friends.
Douglas County District Court Judge Michael J. Malone dismissed the case.

Now the commission will negotiate with CSX to buy an accompanying 1.9 miles of right-of-way, tentatively priced at $7 million. If the commission does not purchase the right-of-way, the trestle will have to be moved or dismantled at the county's expense.
Arafat requests safety inquiry before talks
WORLD
PARIS — The focus of Middle East peacemaking efforts shifted yesterday to Paris, but Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat demanded two things before he would agree to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Enud Barak; a guarantee of protection for his people and an inquiry into the causes of violence that have swept the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

Arafat told reporters after meeting with French President Jacques Chirac that a three-way meeting with Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Barak was not a sure thing. Albright was in Paris to start talks aimed at stopping six days of violence that have left at least 58 people dead in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank.

Edwards campus to offer another graduate program
Bv Matt Merkel-Hess
By Matt Merkel-Hess
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A new master's program in International Studies will be available at the Edwards Campus in Overland Park for Kansas City-area professionals who want to improve their understanding of global issues.
The 37-credit hour thesis program will start this spring and is the 18th graduate program offered at the Edwards Campus.
Universities in large cities such as St. Louis, Denver and Chicago offer similar programs. Gerner said.
Deborah J. Gerner, international studies program director, said the new degree would be ideal for teachers, business professionals, military personnel, journalists and others who wanted to expand their understanding of the contemporary global arena.
"We felt the need to serve the Kansas City community on both sides of the border because there is no program anywhere near here," she said. "As Kansas City becomes increasingly interconnected with the rest of the world, people need to know about these things."
Gerner said the program would be flexible, allowing students to focus on regions, such as the Middle East, that are not covered by other KU area studies programs. Student in the program could also focus on a general area, such as countries in NAFTA or the Islamic world.
She said the program would start with two classes and was designed for people working full time.
Carl Strikwerda, an associate dean of liberal arts and professor of history, helped develop the program. This spring, he will teach a class for the program about globalization and history.
"We think it's a very exciting degree that's going to have a lot of appeal to the KC area," he said. "We're trying to build on KU's long-time strengths in the area studies program and use that expertise but also add on to it."
Both Strikwerda and Gerner thought most students in the program would have some previous experience living or working abroad and would want to add more depth to their understanding of global issues.
"What I think is really exciting is the people taking these courses will have real-world experience." Gerner said.
He estimated that about 15 students would be involved in the spring, and that the program would have the capacity for a larger future enrollment.
Bob Clark, vice chancellor of the Edwards Campus, said the program would serve businesses with employees working abroad in telecommunications, retail, engineering consulting and other services.
"It addresses the need to prepare our work force to be competitive in the growing global economy," Clark said.

Student runs gymnastics academy
By Loite Schultes
Kansan staff writer
Kelly Dirks likes the Olympics. Every four years, the games draw to a close, he sees enrollment at his gymnastics academy increases.
writer@kansan.com
By Bella Schones
writes@kernberg.com
Dirks is a Lawrence graduate student and co-owner of the Lawrence Gymnastics Academy, 4930 Legends Drive. Although the academy has been at its present location for less than a year, he has been teaching gymnastics since he was an undergraduate student in the 1990s.
He knows how to capitalize on the Olympics. A homemade Olympic torch was located near the front desk. Every week his younger students held it for a picture to take home and stick on their refrigerators.
It gets them excited about the Olympics and inspires them to stay in gymnastics, Dirksa said.
He is working toward a master's degree in sports science at the University of Kansas, and joined forces with David Sakumura six years ago to open their business in Lawrence.
The arrangement worked well, Dirkrs said. Sakumura had starting capital but no time to teach, while Dirkrs had extra time but few financial resources.
"The hardest was coming up with the finances to really set things up and get started." he said.
Bob Lockwood, facility director at Robinson Center, understands Dirks' struggle. He compared gymnastics to in-home dance schools.
"Gymnastics is not a basement activity," he said. "You need too much equipment."
For Dirks and Sakumura, getting started included not only the equipment, but also the construction of a $650.00 building.
Such expenses were covered by almost 500 students who attend the academy. Dirks said beginners paid $85 for eight one-hour lessons.
Michelle Sims, whose 9-year-old daughter Amanda has attended the academy for six years, said the sport could help young children build confidence.
Most people are just paying for socialization and the exposure that participating in gymnastics provides.
"It was really good for her when she was a young kid," Sims said, adding that she chose the academy because of its instructors and small class size. "She was very hesitant and scared to try new things, but once she started gymnastics she liked to do anything."
Late winter and early spring are peak profit periods, Dirks said, and carried the academy through low summer enrollment. Payroll is the academy's biggest expense, and the business usually breaks just above even.
But Dirks said the business still provided a good livelihood.
"I think it's becoming more common for people to make a living at it," he said. "In the past it's been more of a side job."

R.E.
Half of his students are preschool age, and he tries to have only six students work with each teacher — many of whom are KU students who work part time. Most of his students are in gymnastics for recreational purposes.
Lori Tochtrop owns Dance City Performing Arts Academy, 711 W. 23rd St., and has two children enrolled at Dirks' academy. She said recreational gymnasts and dancers usually took lessons for two years before trying a new activity.
The numbers from the academy showed that less than 10 percent of students stayed in gymnastics long enough to reach competitive levels, and that sports such as soccer hurt enrollment.
"It's a sport that has very delayed gratification." Dirks said. "There's a lot of pressure — and exposure in the media — to do team sports."
Still, when high school coaches fill out rosters, former gymnasts often make the starting lineup, he said. Gymnastics is one of the only sports to simultaneously improve flexibility, balance, agility and strength, he said.
Dirks has plans to improve his clients' fitness in other areas, as well. He would like to build an outdoor pool to give swimming lessons during the summer. Putting a rock-climbing wall in the gym is another possibility, and Dirks said a "gym mobile" — a bus stripped of seats and equipped with gymnastics equipment would start visiting day cares in October.
The work of running a gymnastic academy can be challenging, he said.
but usually it pays off.
"Along with that there's a lot of gratification that comes when you do see a kid succeed," he said.

Minorities discuss problems faced on campus
Group talks about stress caused by being different
By Jennifer Valadez
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Gwendolyn Swoope, education specialist at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said that ethnic physical appearances caused most of the stress that minorities experienced, especially when they felt they could not connect with anyone else.
Stresses caused by being a minority student were discussed yesterday at the second session of the Multicultural Resource Center's Brown Bag Discussion Series.
"The only way to overcome that is by demonstrating that you are a capable person," she said. "They're ways of connecting. Students belong because they feel accepted."
Derya Suzen, counseling and psychological services program assistant, led the five-person discussion. She said the minority students' stress could be emotional, physical or mental.
"You can get a very serious illness," she said. "You need to listen to your body and its needs."
Suzen said that such physical problems occurred most often in the African-American and Hispanic-American cultures. She said that African Americans often experienced hypertension and Hispanic Americans could endure heart conditions. Physical reactions to stress can occur across all ethnicities, however.
Suzen also discussed the possible isolation or loneliness that minorities might experience on campus.
"Just not being a majority and being seen as different has kind of hindered relationships because I'm not part of the major." she said.
Sarah Zaragoza. Leawood sophomore, said she had felt detached as part of the small Hispanic-American population at the University. Hispanic American students are 2.3 percent of the KU student body.
The next Brown Bag Discussion, titled "Welcome to my world: A view of working, living and communicating in the world of the Deaf" will be Monday, Oct. 18 from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m. at the Multicultural Resource Center classroom.
Exercise, meditation, reading,
going away on vacation and leav-
ing work at home were discussed
as ways to relieve some of students'
daily stresses.

Local honor society named best chapter in Midwest,world
Bv Jason Elliott
Special to the Kansan
The Phi Beta Delta honor society for international students at the University of Kansas was named best overall chapter in 2000 out of the 120 chapters in the world.
The society was also named the best chapter in the Midwestern region for 1998 and 2000.
To become a member, undergraduate applicants must be a junior and have a 3.25 grade point average. Graduate applicants must have a 3.5 GPA.
"Part of the reason we received the award is for our year after year of high quality work," said Anne Merydith-Wolf, vice-president of the Midwest region and project coordinator for international programs at the University. "We have a fairly large chapter and we do a good job of honoring our members."
Jongdeock Lim, a graduate student from South Korea, received a $500 scholarship and a trip to Kansas City for the national conference.
Lim said the award was a big honor that recognized his services and what he has given to his field.
The University's Alpha Pi chapter of Phi Beta Delta was established in 1992. It has more than 125 members, and the national society has more than 10,500 members.
"It is an honorary society that deals with international activities that bring together students and faculty from both international and local organizations," said Anita Herzfeld, president of Phi Beta Delta.

Perspective University needs new domain name
As the cyber revolution burst forth in the 1990s, schools and Internet companies defied common decency worse than Hustler magazine or Pat Robinson.
They confounded students and customers with mind-boggling e-mail addresses. Who can forget trying to e-mail hip Cousin Fred at 293290218.634@compuserve.com? Maybe M. Orde administrators thought jeojayhawk@ku.edu stunted the neuron growth with its simplicity. Email, family and friends had to email Joe at joe.jayhawk.93@falconcrest.coc.hotelcalifornia.edu. which is just a tad cumbersome.
This year, however, the powers that be came to their senses and allowed all students and faculty to attach a regular "ukans.edu" suffix to their e-mail address.
Please be my Frog.
Unfortunately, this little high was dashed
read in the University Daily Kansan that the school wants to change the domain again. It has become apparent that uksan.edu is neither easily recognizable nor popular with students outside the state of Kansas — or inside the state of Kansas — or at Kansas. That might explain why those "ukans class of 2003" t-shirts and beer mugs haven't been flying off the shelves.
Ryan Dolan guest columnist opinion@kansasan.com
If at first you don't succeed, screw it up again.
Administrators are
Administrators are worried that prospective students outside the state, who may not be familiar with the Jayhawk basketball team (to pick a random sport), would be in the dark about how to get to the University's Web site if it was ku.edu.
Anyone in the United States who does not know what KU means spent this past summer outside the our info junkie country. Roy Williams' week-long decision process to stay at Kansas received more press than the political conventions, Bobby Knight and Wen Ho Lee combined.
Let's say you did want to recruit some out of state computer geeks who couldn't care less about Allen Fieldhouse. It makes sense because the computer and biogenetic industries will drive the 21st century economy. (I've seen the Terminator movies.) If they don't know what KU means and can't figure out how to type "Kansas University" in the search box at yahoo.com, they are idiot savants we can do without. (Besides, the computer labs are already overcrowded.)
A little online research reveals that only four state schools placed the letter "u" in front of the entire state's name on their homepages. Three of those, uidaho.edu, illinois.edu and uiowa.edu, resorted to this nonsense because they were unable to procure the coveted "iu.edu."
Isn't the "u" in ukansas.edu a bit redundant after all? Don't we generally assume that the web address is a university by the ".edu"? (. edu means the Web site is run by an education institution.) The FBI doesn't need to use "gbi.gov" or "usafbi.gov." It is simply "gbi.gov."
The chant does not go "Rooooock.
Chaaaaaalk. Jaaaaaayhawk. Goooo uuuuukansas." Does it?
Lots of schools feel very comfortable using their abbreviations as the address to their homepage, i.e. Kansas State (ksu.edu), University of California Los Angeles (ucla.edu), and Fresno State (unlv.com). Those second-rate North Carolinaians are so brilliant as to have both unc.edu and northcarolina.edu lead to the same site! (It baffles me why it took so long for them to lure a basketball coach to Chapel Hill.)
Which brings up the point: Why can we not use kansas.edu as our e-mail domain address? You can type kansas.edu and bring up KU's Web site.
Sigh dot ugh.
Millions of dollars in school merchandise are sold with the letters "KU" on them. The abbreviation is as common as the hoards of 12-year-olds at Oak Park Mall. KU.edu is the logical choice for a new domain name.
Unless, of course, cokeku.edu would raise a little cash for the school and lower the price of campus refreshments.

Profile of a coffee shop
in nearly every college town lies at least one popular haven for students.
Whether it is early in the morning before a midterm or a relaxed Friday night with a significant other, local coffeehouses create a unique yet eclectic atmosphere.
Most often, students stock to these oases of cocoa to either study or socialize. But regardless of what you are doing there, the college-town cafes display some similar characteristics with their customer base. One night I decided to analyze the people drifting in and out of one local establishment; it was slightly more interesting than my statistics assignment.

Unfortunately, he finds the ambient background noise is a little too much and decides to study elsewhere, but before he leaves, he orders an Italian soda to go.
a small table attempting to hide from the world around them. Isolationists hunt out these spots to think, read or study. Their main goal in coming to the cafe is to break away from the stresses of society and to relax. Those who visit coffeehouses regularly know not to approach them as they are very territorial and typically don't want to be bothered. The Isolationists' drink of choice is a double house special.
The Social Butterfly. Probably the most common visitor of local cafes, these individuals are laid back and out to have some fun.
The Social Butterfly often gathers with groups of friends to laugh, discuss or joke about current issues. His or her favorite drink, a double ice mocha, is usually as cold as his or her manners — the Social Butterfly tends to be loud and boisterous with no regard to those around.
The Intellectual. Coffeehouse originated in the 1800s in Vienna, Austria, as a way for the upper class to mingle with philosophers and scientists of the time. So true to tradition, several tables and couches often are filled today with those who want to discuss issues ranging from politics to the origin of the universe. Those who eavesdrop around them are repeatedly amazed and entertained. The Intellectual likes coffee with no additives, but often his drink gets cold because of the intense nature of conversation.
Servers of Steaming Stimulants. No cafe would be complet without the masterful baristas that serve the world's most popular legalized drug, caffeine. Acting as the heart of the business, these Servers not only pump out a variety of concoctions of coffee, they epitomize the relaxed attitude of the cafe. I find that they are particularly adept, when asked, in recommending special drinks to coffee connoisseurs.
The Anxious Undergrad. The Anxious Undergrad is the one who takes up the most space in any cafe. This is because of an enormous bookbag. Usually, he never quite gets everything done that was intended because of his constant worrying and complaining about the enormous amount of homework. It is not hard to distract him from his studies because he came to the coffeehouse to escape from the distractions at home. There really is no preferred drink for the Undergrad, just as long as it has caffeine in it!
After a long night of people-watching, I never really accomplished much with -my homework assignments, but I was productive enough to write this column. I guess I fit the Anxious Undergrad character perfectly.

Editorial
Lawsuits plague University
Administrators need to review the process by which tenure is granted.
Last April, after a series of complaints and lawsuits from University of Kansas faculty members claiming discrimination, the state office of the American Association of University Professors launched an investigation into University of Kansas tenure procedures.
The results of the investigation were deemed important enough to make their way to the AAUP national office, where they are under investigation. The University will face severe humiliation if the national office determines that there is some reality to the accusations.
The latest discrimination lawsuit was filed less than two weeks ago by Dimitrios Dendrinos, professor of architecture and urban design, who alleges discrimination because of his Greek national origin.
As much as everyone associated with the University would like to believe that the accusations are unfounded, the number of faculty members who have filed discrimination lawsuits and the severity of the complaints can shake anyone's good faith in the University.
This is embarrassing for the administration, faculty and students. We consider our institution to be a multicultural environment, and we claim to embrace and promote diversity. However, at least six faculty members, either women or foreign nationals, have filed lawsuits claiming discrimination and unfair tenure procedures.
University officials need to set the record straight. Several highly educated individuals, people whom the University trusted and appointed to teach students, have allegedly been discriminated against by the University.
If national AAPU officials deem the complaints valid, the reputation of the University will suffer a severe blow. No one wants that.
The administration should review and formalize tenure procedures and become more sensitive to issues concerning racial, ethnic or sexual discrimination.

Gore leads after debate; impressions of Bush rise
The Association Press
WASHINGTON — Al Gore fared the best in instant polls of debate watchers, but George W. Bush apparently helped himself, too, in his confrontation with the vice president.
Gore gave a stronger performance, according to registered voters in three of four polls:
He had 30 percent of all voters in a CBA News poll of 812 registered voters.
The Democrat had 48 percent to 41 percent for Republican Bush in a CNN-USA Today Gallup poll of 435 registered voters who watched the debate.
And 46 percent in an NBC News poll of 563 registered voters said Gore did the better job, while 36 percent said Bush fared better.
The two were close in an ABC News poll with Gore at 42 percent and Bush at 39 percent.
PETER HARDMAN
Sore: Fared better n polls of debate watchers
Women favored Gore; Men favored Bush. One encouraging measure for Bush: A third in the CNN-USA Today-Gallup poll had a better impression of him after the debate, while a fourth had a better impression of Gore. Voters clearly had lower expectations
for Bush against the experienced debater Gore, and his aggressive performance appeared to help him.
Gore's debate performance was seen as generally positive by 56 percent in the NBC News poll, and Bush's was seen that way by 47 percent.
before the debate and the numbers barely budged.
The ABC News poll of 491 registered voters showed no significant change in candidate preference. Voters were about evenly split
mothers barely budged.
Almost all of those polled by CNN-USA Today-Gallup, 96 percent, said the debate didn't change their minds on the presidential race.
The polls have error margins ranging from 4 to 5 percentage points, but they are not considered measures of settled public opinion. They measure instant, emotional reactions that don't always hold up.
C. R. GARRETT
Bush: Fell closely behind Gore in most polls
While such polls give a quick answer on a pressing question in these political prize fights
who won?    there are often longer term effects that don't show up instantly. And true public opinion includes the effects of such debates on all voters, not just debate watchers.
Rainstorm swamps Florida
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Flooding caused by up to 18 inches of rain crippled the Miami area yesterday, closing schools and businesses, stranding thousands of motorists in stinking waist-high water and leaving catfish swimming in first-floor apartments.
Most of the rain had stopped by midday, but three counties remained under a flood watch, and Miami residents were urged to stay home until things dried out.
Tens of thousands of people lost power.
Last year, Hurricane Irene caused millions of dollars in flood damage. This time, there was no hurricane — just a moisture-packed storm that arrived Monday with 3 inches of rain per hour.
The storm flooded homes and turned streets into rivers. Catfish were reported swimming in some apartments.
nearly 30,000 homes and businesses were without power. Some could be without it for two to three days.
Classes for the 360,000 students in Miami-Dade County public schools were canceled yesterday, and some water-damaged schools will be unable to open today.
The low-lying suburbs of Miami Springs and Sweetwater had more than two feet of standing water. Residents used canoes and aluminum boats to get around.
The Miami-Dade County Health Department warned residents that standing water may be contaminated by sewer systems and septic tanks, and people with private wells were advised to boil their drinking water.
Miami International Airport never officially closed, but numerous flights were canceled or rerouted. Service was expected to return to normal by late yesterday.
The storm dumped at least 11 inches of rain on Miami-Dade County, and the airport got 15.3 inches in 36 hours, the National Weather Service said.

Suit was filed in Miami County District Court last week by Lorray McCoy following the fire in February that killed 24-year-old Emily Michelle McCoy and caused $500,000 in damages.
The suit names Whirpool Corp., which made her 1996 Kenmore New Generation dishwasher. The lawsuit contends that Whirpool knew it had manufactured a defective product.
An investigative report from the state fire marshal said the marshal suspected the dishwasher was the cause of the fire.
Whirlpool representatives won't discuss the McCoy fire. Sources involved say Whirlpool is expected to claim that the fire began outside the dishwasher.
the case could have national significance. The Consumer Product Safety Commission worked with Whirlpool in 1996 in a voluntary recall of 500,000 potentially defective dishwashers.
At least six lawsuits now pending against Whirlpool and Kenmore involve dishwashers that were not part of the recall.
School bomb threat sends principal to jail
JOHNSON CITY — An elementary school principal was sentenced to nearly three years in prison Tuesday for phoning in a threat to blow up the middle school.
Steve Nelson was convicted in August for calling in the Dec. 9 threat, made to a convenience store, against the Johnson Middle School. All five schools in the Stanton County School District were evacuated, but no bomb was found.
Nelson, 49, was the principal of the Johnson Elementary School at the time of the threat. After his arrest, Nelson was suspended without pay pending a school board hearing on his job status. The board agreed to delay its review until after Nelson's criminal case ended.
Stanton County District Judge Tom R. Smith refused defense attorney Wayne Tate's request that his client receive probation so that he could financially support Nelson's wife and three children.
Assistant Attorney General Sherri Price said Nelson should serve jail time because he had a relationship with students and staff in the school district.
He has maintained that he is innocent.
Evidence at the August trial showed that Nelson's cell phone records indicated a call was made from his phone to the convenience store at about the time of the bomb threat. Nelson was traveling in a district-owned car with his district-owned cellular phone when the threat was made.
Nelson's professional licenses will be revoked because educators with felonies cannot be employed by educational institutions.
He worked for the school district in Johnson City for eight years, serving as an elementary counselor before becoming principal. Nelson had previously worked for 17 years at schools in Hugoton.

New York ties series 1-1
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif.
Kevin Appier blower over and grasped his knees in anguish after giving up a two-run double to Luis Sojo in the sixth inning.
Appier, in the postseason for the first time in his 12-year career, had blown it, giving up three runs in the New York Yankees' 4-0 victory against the Oakland Athletics last night.
He grimaced.
The loss evens the A's best-of-five playoff series against the Yankees at 1- all. The teams now head to New York for Game 3 tomorrow at Yankee Stadium.
Applier had done everything right. He had thrown five scoreless innings in a game with few offensive fireworks. He had gotten out of a jam in the first inning, when Paul O'Neill popped out with two outs and the bases loaded.
But in the sixth, A's manager Art Howe decided to intentionally walk the struggling O'Neill with two outs and Bernie Williams
on second.
O'Neill had not had an extra-base hit since Sept. 6, and he had been dropped to the sixth spot in the lineup yesterday by manager Joe Torre. He was 2-for-21 against the A's going into the game.
But his bat was still apparently considered enough of a threat for Howe to come to the mound to confer with Applier before the intentional walk.
That brought up Glenallen Hill, a hard-hitting right-hander who singled up the middle to score Williams.
Sojo doubled, scoring O'Neill and Hill. Appier, who had run to back up catcher Ramon Hernandez, slowly began his march back to the mound, pausing and grasping his knees in defeat.
Appier was finished after 6 1-3 innings, allowing three runs and six hits with five walks and seven strike-outs. Appier was 15-11 in the regular season with a 4.52 ERA, one of three A's starters with at least 15 wins this season.

Jayhawks place 12th at Big 12 Preview
The Kansas women's golf team finished in 12th place after the 18-hole final round of the Big 12 Preview at the 5,991-yard, par-72 Ridgewood Country Club in Waco, Texas.
The Jayhawks shot a 316 in the final round combined with a 653 in the first round for a total score of 969, finishing 74 strokes behind first place Oklahoma State.
Senior Ashley Bishop led all Jayhawk golfers by finishing tied for 28th with a final round score of 76 for a total of 233. Heather Rose finished the final round with a score of 79 for a total of 243 and a 51st place finish.
"I'm happy with the way our team played today," said Kansas coach Nicole Hollingsworth. "We played better and had three players in the 70s. We were very close to the point where we were clicking. Now, we just need to rebound and be ready for the Shootout in Indiana."

COLLEGE FOOTBALL
BOULDER, Colo. — Butkus Award candidate Jashon Skys is out of the
Colorado linebacker removed from lineup
starting lineup Saturday for Colorado, which is off to an 0-4 start.
Inside linebacker coach Brian Cabral said the move was meant to challenge a team leader on defense.
"I have not gotten him to play at the level he's capable of," he said. "I'm going to help him. He needs to understand it's a privilege to be on the field."
Sykes has an average of 8.8 tackles, second on the team to safety Michael Lewis, who has 11. He was the second-leading tackler in the Big 12 Conference last season.
But Colorado's defensive unit has plunged to last in the conference and 99th nationally in total defense.
it is 104th nationally and last in the conference in pass defense, and 75th nationally and second-worst in the Big 12 in scoring defense.

SOCCER
Wizards 2-1 Tuesday night in the semifinals of the Major League Soccer playoffs.
More than 20,000 people at the Rose Bowt watch Los Angeles take a 4-1 lead as the team headed to the decisive third game of the best-of-five points series, which will be tomorrow night in Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium.
Califf, who arrived in Los Angeles on Saturday after playing in the Olympics, scored off a corner kick from Cobi Jones, Califf beat Kansas City's Matt McKeon by converting a 7-yard header that bounced inside the left post.
Jones gave Los Angeles a 1-0 lead in the 15th minute. The Galaxy's Ezra Hendrickson eluded Kansas City defender Brandon Prideaux near the right end line and passed to an unmarked Jones, who converted from seven yards inside the left post.
Mckenon tied the score in the 29th minute with a 30-yard free kick into the upper-left corner of the net.
NBA
Knicks sign one veteran, two rookies to contracts
NEW YORK — The New York Knicks signed free-agent center Felton Spencer and rookies Lavor Postell and Pete Mickeal.
Spencer played in San Antonio last season, backing up Tim Duncan and David Robinson. He averaged 1.9 points, 1.5 rebounds and 5.7 minutes in 26 games.
Mariners beat White Sox 5-2; Seattle gains 2-0 series lead
The 7-foot Spencer also played with Golden State, Orlando, Utah and Minnesota, averaging 5.6 points and 5.7 rebounds in his 10-year career.
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Paul Abbott pitched like a playoff veteran, and Seattle's bullpen was unhittable. That's why the road-tough Mariners are headed home with a 2-10 lead against the Chicago White Sox in their division series.
Shutting down Frank Thomas and Chicago's high-scoring offense for a second straight game, the Mariners beat the White Sox 5-2 yesterday, putting the team with
the AL's best regular-season record on the verge of a quick exit. Game No. 3 in the best-of-five series is tomorrow at Safeco Field in Seattle.
"Right now, obviously, we're in some trouble." Chicago manager Jerry Manuel said. "I think if any team can do it, we can. We won 95 games and feel we can find a way to win three more."
The Mariners won eight of their final nine road games in the regular season, including a wild card-
clinching win at Anaheim last Sunday. And now they've carried it over into the postseason.
Seattle's bullpen dominated Tuesday as Arthur Rhodes, Jose Mesa and Kazuhiro Sasaki didn't allow a hit the rest of the way.
"It's everything." Abbott said of the Mariners bullpen. "They've been lights out. You go out there and know once you've done your job, you have three or four guys who are going to come in and shut them down.
Giants win first playoff in eight seasons
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Livan Hernandez was his usual postseason self. Barry Bonds was a different man.
Hernandez limited the Mets to five hits during seven 2-3 innings, and Bonds fought back his playoff demons with an RBI triple and a key single as the San Francisco Giants beat New York 5-1 yesterday in the opener of their NL division series.
Ellis Burks hit a three-run homer as the Giants gave both manager Dusty Baker and Pacific Bell Park their first postseason wins. The new park even played a role in the victory: Bonds' triple took a fortuitous bounce off a low wall in right, while Burks' homer hit the foul pole in left.
Hernandez wasn't dominant, but he picked up
where he left off in the postseason three years ago. Hernandez, the NLCS and World Series MVP in 1997 while leading the Florida Marlins to the title, retired the Mets' first seven hitters and pitched out of two jams, allowing his only run on a sacrifice fly in the third.
Hernandez improved to 5-0 lifetime in the postseason, the same mark as his older half-brother, Orlando, of the New York Yankees.
For Bonds, the three-time MVP whose career has been defined by regular-season prowess and postseason problems, his 2-for-3 performance was an early answer to his critics. He hit .200 in four previous trips to the playoffs, but he had the fourth multi-hit playoff game of his career.
It was the Giants' first playoff victory in eight seasons under Baker, who was the NL Manager of the Year twice.

Women's team hopes to play in tournament
By Michael Sudhalter
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The University of Kansas women's club soccer team has some Texas-size goals this season.
The senior-laden club has a great deal of flexibility, which helps when the team has a shortage of position players.
"We have a lot of talented, versatile players on this team," said Lauren Heyward, Leawood senior and club president. "That helps when you need defenders to play as midfielders."
Heyward and other team members are confident they will compete in the championship bracket of the National Intramural and Recreational Sports Association Soccer Finals in Austin, Texas, Nov. 15-18.
Last year, the Jayhawks competed in the championship's open division in Statesboro, Ga., where they tied a competitive Colorado team 1-1.
While reaching nationals and competing at that tournament has been the
team's main goal, it is developing an unlikely in-state rival.
The Jayhawks reached the finals of the Edward Chartrand Memorial Tournament in Manhattan last weekend, where they lost 3-0 to Drake. However, it was a semifinal 3-2 overtime victory settled by penalty kicks against Wichita State University that may have sparked a new rivalry.
"K-State used to be our main rival, but it looks like Wichita has replaced them," Heyward said.
While the Jayhawks and the Shockers are scheduled to play Saturday, Oct. 21, in Wichita, some team members said they believed that last Saturday's match-up was more of a fluke than the beginning of a rivalry.
“This year's team is spectacular,” said Carlisa希拉Wichita, Bellichia女士。“Wichita State just caught us on a day when we only had 14 players.”
The team's mixture of youthful and veteran talent led to two other victories, both in the first round of the Charttand Tournament. The Jayhawks defeated Kansas State 1-0 and Manhattan Christian College 9-0.
The team's new cohesiveness may prove to be helpful for the upcoming national competition as well as home matches against Missouri this Saturday and Nebraska on Sunday, Oct. 29.

Shoe store discounts put players on bench
The Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin suspended three basketball players yesterday, including two from its Final Four team, for eight games for receiving unadvertised discounts at a shoe store.
Maurice Linton and Travon Davis, members of the Badgers' Final Four team, and women's player Krista Bird must sit out eight games, close their accounts at the store and repay more than $500 in benefits each received to regain eligibility, the school said.
An additional 37 athletes who received extra benefits at the store won't miss any games, but they must close their accounts and repay the amount of the extra benefit to a local charity.
Sixteen of those athletes who received benefits of between $100 and $299 also must perform 24 hours of community service.
the university's action yesterday brings the number of Badger athletes disciplined for receiving substantial discounts on shoes and clothing at the Shoe Box to 88.
The investigation into the store and the athletes began after the Wisconsin State Journal ran a report this summer detailing purchases by eight members of the Badgers' Final Four men's basketball team and 14 players from the Rose Bowl champion football team.
The newspaper reported players received discounts of 25 percent to 40 percent and interest-free credit.
The two men's basketball team members must serve their suspensions within the opening eight games of the 2000-01 season, not counting exhibition games. The university has appealed to the NCAA to allow the suspensions to be staggered over the first half of the season, 13 games.
The school still must complete a report to the NCAA. If the violations constitute a major rules violation, it would be the university's third such infraction within the past decade.
Because Basket was the lone suspended women's basketball player, Wisconsin can't appeal to the NCAA for an extension.

Wildcats use digs to beat Jayhawks 3-0
by Sarah Warren
Sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Sophomore Jamie Morningstar, defensive specialist, led the Hawks with 12 digs, although she only played the first two games. Seven of her digs came in that first game.
"Obviously that dig differential really hurt us," she said. "Sometimes things just don't go your way and it goes the others' way, and they dig and convert."
Surrounded in a purple haze, confusion and uncharacteristic mistakes masked spurs of top-notch play from the Kansas volleyball team last night as they fell to Kansas State 3-0 in Manhattan.
After falling in the first game 15-6,
the Jayhawks put up a fight in games
two and three, losing 17-15 after four
separate match-point rallies in game
two and falling 15-13 in game three.
"We came close in games two and three, but K-State is a good sideout team, and that cost us," said coach Ray Bechard. "You live and die by being aggressive, and we just didn't fight hard enough tonight."
"That's what they do," Bechard said. "They dig and convert. The dig differential is huge."
K-State, now 10-4 and 4-2 in the Big 12, surpassed the Jayhawks in every category with the exception of blocks, which Kansas recorded 13 to the Wildcats' 10. The Wildcats recorded 30 more kills, 31 more sets and 19 more digs.
"That's what they do. They dig and convert. The dig differential is huge."
Ray Bechard volleyball coach
On the offensive end, Kansas State's Liz Wegner, a senior outside hitter, broke the Wildcats' school record, smacking down 29 kills.
However, the Jayhawks had their own killing machine in Amy Myatt, also a senior outside hitter. Myatt batted down more than 20 kills of her own while nursing a chronic shoulder injury and playing every third rotation.
"Myatt had 21 kills." Bechard said.
"Basically it was all Myatt."
The only other Jayhawk to log double-digit kills was freshman Sarah Rome, who recorded 10. Senior Nancy Bell, who is second on the team in kills for the season behind Myatt, was held to just seven after attacking 28 times.
After the match, Myatt's right shoulder was heavily wrapped in ice and an ace bandage.
"I don't think we've ever played a three-game match for two hours." Myatt said.
Kansas will try to end its threegame losing streak at 7 p.m. Saturday when it takes on Texas at the Horese Family Athletic Center.

Kansas feels effects of K-State's court
By Shawn Linenberger sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Kansas State's old barn was a rockin' last night.
But the rambunctious crowd was nothing new for the Javhawks.
The Kansas volleyball team, playing against the Wildcats in Ahearn Fieldhouse, had to handle roughly 2,000 purple-clad fans along with the six K-State volleyball players on the court.
Senior Amy Myatt said other Big 12 Conference schools such as Texas, Texas A&M, Baylor and Nebraska always - had large crowds at their home arenas.
Sophomore Jamie Morningstar said Nebraska's home court was as rowdy as Ahearn.
"It's very similar to Nebraska."
Morningset said about the fieldhouse. "They're very enthusiastic about the home team."
State basketball team, but is now solely home to Wildcat volleyball.
Ahearn once was home to the K
The structure seats 5,000 now for volleyball, compared to the 14,000 it used to seat for basketball.
But no matter the number, fans behind the bench last night weren't pulling for the Jayhawks. About 30 males wearing purple and white tie-dyed T-shirts heckled the Jayhawks throughout most of the match.
The large male contingent is becoming a popular trend in the Big 12. Mytt said other schools have similar sections.
The lively sections and overall large crowds weren't a concern for Morningstar, who said those factors were just part of the game.
"When you're on the bench, you're going to hear it from people," she said. "If you can't handle that, you're going to have problems. It really doesn't affect us altogether. We just play through
it."
Up until last year, the Jayhawks played in Allen Fieldhouse, an arena similar to K-State's Ahearn.
Allen Fieldhouse, however, didn't provide as strong a homecourt advantage as Ahearn does for K-State. The court at K-State is crammed into one end of Ahearn, while the court in Allen Fieldhouse was located in the middle of the basketball court.
Morningstar said the move from Allen Fieldhouse wasn't a problem. In fact, she prefers the 1,300-seat Horeksi Center as the home of the Jayhawks.
The Jayhawks moved into the cozier Horejsi Family Athletic Center last year.
"It's the greatest feeling," Morningstar said about walking onto the court in the Horejsi Center. "It feels so full and energized."

Linebacker eager for Sunflower Showdown
Player discourages fans from assuming an easy K-State win
By Jason Franchuk
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Before confronting Kansas linebacker Dariss Lomax with an opinion about Saturday's game, understand that there are nerequites.
You must not be a member of the media. You must not be a fan of Kansas State or Kansas, for that matter.
You must have shoulder pads.
"This game is not played in newspapers or magazines," Lomax said. "A lot of people are already counting us out. None of them are putting on shoulder pads and playing."
Lomax has heard all the grumblings about how lopsided the Sunflower
Showdown has been the past few years, but unless you happen to be playing in Saturday's 1 p.m. contest at Memorial Stadium, he has no time for your views.
For the Jayhawks, suiting up the past seven years to play K-State has not been a problem. Winning has been.
The past two contests have been particularly memorable for Kansas. There was the 54-6 Halloween nightmare two years ago, in which then-quarterback Zac Wegner was knocked out by a devastating hit that left him with a concussion and a
Since winning at home in 1992, Kansas has lost seven consecutive games and has been outscored 262-72.
shattered finger.
"You can't help but look at it," Lomax said. "But you've just gotta go out and try to beat them on the front line every play." Lomax, who is from Kansas City, Kan., knows plenty about winning the battles up front. He also knows plenty about K-State
Last year Kansas State won again, 50-9.
Despite such recent results, Kansas coach Terry Allen said he always looked forward to this game. As does Lomax.
He originally committed to K-State for his freshman year in 1996 before then-Kansas coach Glen Mason lured him to Lawrence.
Of course, Mason left a year later and Lomax was left with the frustrations of wondering why he did not go to the fledgling Wildcats to begin with.
Lomax said when Mason recruited him, there was never any indication the coach
would be leaving soon. Lomax did not want to discuss why he reneged on his original commitment to K-State, but he said he was frustrated at the situation he was in when Mason left.
"Then, I thought 'Dang, why'd he leave,' Lomax said. "But I've learned it's a business. He had to make a decision. He has to put food on the table for his family."
Lomax said a transfer would have been a waste of time.
"It wouldn't really make a lot of sense," he said. "I didn't want to go somewhere and start over again."
What he would like to start again is winning in this series. Kansas has won more games (61) in the showdown than against any other opponent, and Lomax would like to change K-State's recent winning streak.

Volleyball dangerous for players
I worry too much.
I worry about whether the White Sox can rebound from a 2-0 series slump against the Mariners. I worry about the prospect of having my dirty Wescoe Terrace hot dog react badly with my innards. But mostly, I worry about the well-being of the Kansas volleyball players.
Not so much on the athletic front, because they've shown they can hang out on the big kids' playground. Last week, they pushed two nationally ranked teams, Baylor and Texas Tech, to five games, the maximum number per match. They lost both matches, but they didn't lose their lunch money either.
My concern lay in the dangers of playing the game. I'm surprised more athletes haven't been hurt while competing at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center.
Football players are issued pads, soccer players get shin guards, but little stands between a volleyball player and a humiliating injury.
Don't laugh—I'm serious.
First of all, there's the possibility of a ball slamming into your head at 60 mph. Talk about a bad hangover. No one wants a Nike swoosh tattooed on their nose.
Before the Nebraska bullies came to town two weeks ago, coach Ray Bechard joked that he should borrow football helmets for his players' protection. I'm sure sophomore defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft — who received a ball in the face compliments of a 'Husker spiker' would have appreciated the extra protection.
If you can dodge the flying balls, you've got to deal with the court. It looks harmless enough. But once the players start moving and sweating (yes, girls do sweat), the floor gets slippery, and feet start flailing.
Toweling off the floor can help after the point is over, but I don't want to see our Jayhawks laying flat on their backs because they slipped diving for a ball. Maybe Nike can sponsor a drain-off system to curb this problem.
But perhaps the most dangerous object on the court is the net. What harm could nine meters of interwoven rope do to a player? Plenty — take it from me.
OK, I wasn't playing volleyball, but that didn't change the consequences. My front tooth was ripped in first grade because of a stinky net.
We just finished the volleyball portion of gym class, so the nets still divided the room. The class was running relay races to decide which group would win free candy. My group consisted of most of the top athletes, so we were golden. I was the anchor leg, so only one lap stood between me and the nerds.
Then, disaster struck. I veered to the left, ran into the net just long enough for the netting to wrap around my front tooth, then pulled away and kept running.
Talk about your all-time backfire.
My tooth came out, my 300-pound gym teacher passed out and my Brownie uniform was permanently dyed red.
My dentist used a root canal to save the tooth, but I had to endure years of being called "Blue Tooth." To this day, my childhood friends still find humor in my humiliating move.
So when I see senior outside hitters Amy Myatt or Nancy Bell come inches away from snagging their teeth on the way down from a kill, I worry. I want their teeth to remain fully intact. After all, we don't want them to look like they're from Manhattan.
So to help me sleep at night, pray the White Sox win three straight games and the hot dogs at Wescoe Terrace aren't infected. And please don't let any Kansas volleyball players get hurt in the trenches.

At $22 a shot, $155 a bottle,
Johnnie Walker Blue Label whiskey is ...
top-notch scotch
Johnnie Walke BlueLabel
By Katie Hollar
writer@kansan.com
Kansan senior staff writer
Throughout his bartending career, Jesse Stanley has only poured it eight times.
The first two pours of Johnnie Walker Blue Label went to a pair of local scotch fanatics and regulars. The next five went to some ritzy Chicago visitors.
A Blue Label bottle goes for $155 at Cork and Barrel, 2000 W. 23rd St.
The eighth? To a reporter seeking the most expensive drink in Lawrence. Sales and specials aside, this blended Scotch whisky takes the honor — it sells for $21.90 a shot at Teller's. 746 Massachusetts St.
"I probably sell five or six bottles a year," said Jeff Krug, the store's manager. "It's just expensive scotch." To give some context, one cou-
to give some context, one枕ncle buy eight gallons of Viaka vodka for the price of one bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label.
But for some serious scotch drinkers, it's well worth the price.
"I love it," said Stanley, a Wichita graduate student. "It's a nice, hearty scotch."
According to Johnnie Walker representatives, John Walker first established his business in 1820 in Kilmarnock, Scotland. Malt whiskies and grain whiskies were bottled one at a time, and a market for them barely existed beyond Scotland.
However, as the years progressed, whisky's popularity spread.
Singly bottled whiskies, like wine, can vary from one year to the next. Walker wanted to develop a consistent recipe that would produce the same flavor and quality every time. As he experimented, he discovered that blending produced a richer, more complex flavor.
THE GROUND BREWERY
Later, Walker's son, Alexander, continued the scotch

alchemy, aiming to make the company's whisky the very highest quality available.
Blue Label, developed this century by a Walker master blender, serves as a tribute to the Walker family tradition. Even the square blue bottle bottle was designed with a 19th century feel.
Poured into a snifter, the light-brown liquor has a smoky smell. It tastes sweet on the tongue at first, then tingly and warm as the flavor expands. With the next six, one's lips are pleasantly warmed.
The Beverage Testing Institute offers a more formal description: "Bright orange-amber hue. Medium-bodied with elegant floral and high-toned peaty flavors that persist through the salty-tinged finish. A complex and flavorful whisky."
Behind the bar at Teller's, Stanley does have some rules for serving Blue Label: You won't get it chilled, and you certainly won't get it mixed with Coke.
No $1.50 well can compare to this.
The institute gave the whisky a rating of 93 on a 100-point scale.
"An ice cube or two doesn't hurt," he said, "but you have to be careful not to insult the whisky."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 5). You and a roommate may quarrel this year, but the overall outcome is good. Make your opinion known in October. Listen and learn with love in November. Things may not be as you thought in December. Difficulties at home could motivate you to travel in January. By February you should feel well-connected. A foreigner can forward your progress in June, but a moody woman could slow you down in July. Follow a hunch to gain the information you seek in September.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
Everybody has an opinion about how you should run your life. A little of that goes a long way.
Instead of telling them to shove it, be gracious. It'll be more fun. Besides, you're much better-looking when you're smiling.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
Going out seems like a good idea, but it's not. If chores could interfere with an excursion, let them. You'll do better closer to home. You'll make or save money, too. Let your fingers do the walking. Do business over the phone.
Germany (May 21 to June 21)
Something you and a sweetheart are planning needs work. The way it's set up now is too expensive. Go over your budget with a critical eye.
Discover this error before you spend the money, rather than later.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
Something isn't going well for your mate or partner. Or perhaps a household project of yours has gone awry. Provide comfort and nurturing food.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
Your latest scheme may not work as well as you hoped. Try it on a small scale before you take it public. Romance will go best if you let your sweet-heart take the lead. Listen carefully, and you'll hear what isn't being said.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Does a loved one want something special? Are you tempted to splurge and get it? Do you have a steady income? If not, go for the good job first.
After you get it, you can buy the toy. It'll be part of your celebration.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 5.
scarpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
Better double-check the latest gossip before you pass it on. You wouldn't want to look foolish because of somebody else's error. On the other hand, if you're the one who sets things straight, you'll look pretty good.
**Libra** (29 Oct 21) - Today 19:53
You and a roommate might clash. You can go for a complete victory, but it'll cost you. Work out a compromise instead. Give in on a point you don't care much about, and you'll win more than you lose.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 4.
Something that looks like a good deal may be the opposite. Read the fine print before you sign anything. It won't hurt to wait a little, either. Your chances of success improve the more you learn.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
You and your friends know you're right, but take care. Don't bet more than you want to lose to prove it. An older person may be wrong, but if he or she outranks you, be diplomatic. Keep talking and listening.
2
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6. Hold off on travel for a day or so; you'll avoid some hassles. Finish old business before you launch into anything new. Think about something a quiet woman said, and you'll be prepared for a confrontation.
9
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8.
You're a generous person, and your contributions are appreciated. Don't overdo it, though.
Don't offer your savings account to a good cause unless you'll get a good return. You need to look out for yourself, too.

Education key to healthy diet, exercise
Column
First, dieting can be dangerous and must be approached like anything else concerning your body — with education and devotion. The word "dieting" doesn't mean "stop eating" in some foreign language — that method robs you of all the great vitamins and nutrients that keep you healthy and looking great. That is

Try to eat five smaller meals a day instead of three to keep your metabolism at an even rate, which helps burn calories constantly throughout the day. It takes about six hours to burn carbs, but try not to eat any right before you go to bed or they may settle in the night. Cut back on the amount of soda you drink; too, it really adds up. One 12 ounce can per day equals one pound to burn in two weeks.

Bar's alien apparel probes punishment
RANGELY, Colo. — Even love among
aliens is a touchy subject for this town

When Mark Archuleta printed T-shirts depicting extraterrestrial sex to promote his bar, a waitress told a police officer it seemed like harassment.
The town council got wind of it and banned the propaganda, saying the use of pornographic images is against state liquor laws. The authorities functions of simulat or real sexual acts.
Since then, Archuleta, owner of Where It's At, has dumped the six dozen tops and offered to shut the bar for five days, a week or just first offense or serving liquor to minors.

Man receives $95,000 in whiskey lawsuit
DUBLIN, Texas — A former city manager will receive $95,000 in a settlement of a lawsuit he filed in 1997 after he was arrested for keeping an unopened souvenir bag.
Winder will receive $85,000 from the city and former Police Chief David Johnson, and $10,000 from Malone in the settlement approved by the city council.
The charge was related to a bottle of unopened whisky Winder said he kept in his office as a personal memento. No city law specifically prohibited alcohol in the building,
Tom Winder sued after he was arrested in April 1997 and charged by former police officer C.E. Malone for possession of alcohol in a city building. Winder claimed at the time that he had been drinking with his sons he had made. He was fired in July after threatening to sue because of the arrest.
Winder said he had the bottle on his shelf for 30 years. His father bought him the bottle, and they were going to drink it when Winder graduated from Texas A&M.
"My father died in the meantime, and I've had that bottle in every municipal building in which we've worked," Winder said. "The seal has never even been broken."
Tattoo age may rise, to dismay of teens
FARIWY HEIGHTS, III.  — The rage for body art is not being received well by some factions.
Under a proposed law that pits city leaders against local tattoo-shop owners and teen-agers, the city would raise the state's minimum age for tattooing from 18 to 21.
City Council members say the law is meant to ensure tattooing and piercing is sanitary and performed only by trained professionals. But shop owners say the law will force teens to have piercings done in an unsafe environment.
"If the people can't get it done in a clean, sterile, professional shop, they're going to go to somebody's basement," he says. "The artist at Screamin' dumbo tattoo parlor."
"At age 18, you're an adult, and you can decide what you want," said Rebecca Smith, who was at the Inkwell on Saturday to get her belly button pierced in celebration of her 18th birthday. "It's my right to choose what I can do to my body."
Shop owners say the majority of their

Couple places ad for kidney donor
GREEN BAY, Wi. — Patrick Zelter wants a new kidney for his sister so bad that he wished to have it removed.
If someone comes forward to donate a kidney for his sister, Zeizer and his wife, Jill, promise to each donate a kidney to help save two other people. He placed the ad in newspaper under the simple heading "Kidney Wanted."
"The potential is huge." Zeizer said.
"This is such a giving world. I hope this world has enough."
His sister, Sue Johnson, needs a kidney transplant, but no one in her family is a
It normally takes 18 to 24 months to get a kidney through the United Network for Organ Sharing, the usual means of securing an organ from an unrelated donor. Zelizer is worried that his sister, whose kidneys failed last year, cannot wait that long.
Johnson, 50, was moved by her brother and sister-in-law's gesture.
"How do you respond?" she said. "I was sitting here crying and smiling at the same time. I always say there's a plan out there for me, and I just have to be patient."
Doogie Howser exists at Lovola University
CHICAGO — Like many kids, 9-year-old Sko Yan梦想 of becoming a doctor.
I have dreams of becoming a doctor.
What distinguishes him from other young sters is that he plans to be in medical school within five years.
She ensoled this fall as a full-time student at Loyola University, becoming the youngest president of the university.
After being discouraged by schools because of his age, She convinced Loyola officials that he was ready to handle college work. He hopes to graduate at age 12 and enter Loyola's medical school by 14. She had to fulfill all the university's
requirements for undergraduate admissions, including a high school diploma. He scored 1,500 of a possible 1,600 points on the Scholastic Antitude Test.
"He's got his extraordinary intelligence of a mind, and yet he's a young boy," said the Rev. John Pident, president of Loyola. "It's almost like there another world where children grow up in the same way but they are four times as intelligent, and he's from that world."
Sho, who also is a gift pianist, shrugs off the genius tag.
"I am not a genius," he said. "I am gift ed. Since I have this gift, I may be in some way accountable to God to use that gift wisely without wasting it."

Radiohead — Kid A
Going techno usually sounds a death knell for the bands that experiment with the genre. Just ask the Smashing Pumpkins; 1998's *Adore* cost the band a significant portion of its fan base, and the Pumpkins will retire early by the end of this year.
Don't expect the same result for Radiohead, whose legion of fans has waited three years in rabid anticipation since OK Computer. Its fourth album, Kid A., proves
the band is more than willing to shed its pop skin; and even though it's out of character, Radiohead's experiment with electronica still is fascinating.
This truly is a far cry from the infectious pop
KID A
While Kid A cries out to be heard in its full 45-minute glory, a few tracks distinguish themselves. "The National Anthem" stacks a hypnotic bass beat on top of a rising brass ensemble. "How to Disappear Completely" is the album's climax, as Yorke's trademark falsetro metts perfectly into a string-laden background. And "Motion Picture Soundtrack," an organ-heavy funeral-esque ballad, brings the
he colored The Bends. Listeners won't even hear a guitar until the fourth track. Thom Yorke's vocals are noticeably simple and barely audible. And the dance-grove beats on "Idioteque" will leave even the most hardcore Radiohead fans with their jaws on the floor.
album to a cathartic conclusion. Napster lovers can find an even better acoustic version of the song in MP3 format.
Fans will have mixed reactions, certainly.
But at its core, *Kid A* is no juvenile; it's surprisingly mature and simply beautiful.

Cold — 13 Ways to Bleed On Stage
Somewhere between Cold's 1998 self-titled debut and its latest release, 13 Ways to Bleed On Stage, lead singer Scooter Ward learned how to enunciate. The band's first album showed promise, but gambled lyrics and generic metal harmonies brought down an album with at least three standout tracks.
with it three times around. Two years later, Cold has found a niche in
Two years later, Coin had the metal market, finally finding its own sound. And thankfully, listeners can discern what exactly Ward is singing. The band's second effort, more melodic than the first album, features some solid songwriting.
"Just Got Wicked," now enjoying occasional radio airtime, leads off the album with a heavy crunch. Fred Durst of Limp Blzkit, another band from Jacksonville, Fla., jumps into the producer's seat on "She Said," a wonderfully constructed weave of
paired lyrics and alow, heavy chords. And "Confession" brings the album to a spirited climax, evidence that a metal band can indeed compose catchy music.
A strong sophomore effort is a must for a band chasing success with only a rough debut under its belt. Cold succeeds; 13 Ways makes the grade.

The band's concert with Guster Sunday night at Municipal-Auditorium brought together a mix of cultures that spoke volumes about the infectious tunes and offbeat lyrics that have pushed them off of the fringes of stardom into the limelight.
The two-hour show featured nine songs from its latest album *Maroon* — released Sept. 12. It also covered the classics — "Brian Wilson" and "If I Had A Million Dollars." And there was a man in a baker's outfit playing the tambourine. Interesting.
Barenaked Ladies - concert review
The four-man band could be the best cover band ever.
Trust a band named The Barenaked Ladies never to take itself too seriously.
From keyboardist Kevin Hearn's parody of Britten Spears "Ooops, I Did It Again" to a rockin' medley that stole snippets from Kid Rock, Eminem, Celine Deion and
Madonna — the band kept the crowd laughing and cheering about the current state of music culture.
Luckily, the group has too much ingenuity and creative spark to limit its potential to cover songs — even though the group's version of "Slim Shady" was pretty impressive. The group also used stand-up improv. Lead singers rapped about their trip to Foo's Frozen Custard in Kansas City, Mo. in a song titled "The Foo's Diet."
And the drummer did an impressive solo after the intercom announced that what the crowd was about to hear was NOT a drum solo.
BNL did take the picketeers from Westboro Baptist Church seriously. The "God Hates Fags" signs that are typical of Fred Phlegs' followers struck a nerve, after lead singers Steven Page and Ed Robertson danced and kissed on stage, they dedicated it to the church. During the band's first encore, it dedicated the song, "Good Boy" from Gordon to Matthew Shepard, the 21-year-old University of Wyoming student who was killed in 1998 because he was gay.
The venue, however, lacked atmosphere. The old auditorium was too big for the crowd and lacked the feel of togetherness that a smaller venue such as Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kan., would have provided. To offset the space, the beer was cheap, and a bathroom stall was always empty something that rarely happens at smaller

Thrillseeker survives haunted-house fright fest
Special to the Kansan
Amanda Bealin
Apparently, the edge of hell is in Kansas City, Mo. I saw it, I walked through it and I shrieked like an outdoor audience member on Total Request Live.
The Edge of Hell, 1200 W. 12th St., is one of seven haunted houses in Kansas City, Mo. And with Halloween getting close, it's one you'll want to see for yourself.
The Edge of Hell has been in business for 25 years; its neighbor, The Beast, 1401 W. 13th St., is 10 years old. Both are packed with scream-worthy chills and thrills — mostly in the form of dark mazes, smoke-filled rooms, creepy creatures trailing unsuspecting house guests and ghouls pouncing up out and down.
I was truly frightened, and I clutched my roommate's arm like a kid who's scared of losing her
mother in the airport. You won't appreciate the people you tour the houses with until you lose them in the darkness in front of you.
We began to notice that we didn't just walk through the Edge of Hell, we walked up it as well. Eventually, we were at the top of the five-story building with dizzying thoughts about how we'd get out.
We heard ripping sounds followed by screams. And as we neared the front of the line, all was explained. We were handed freshly ripped wax paper and were told to sit, push forward and enjoy the ride.
We were propelled through a metal spiral slide that hurled us down the building's five flights in about six seconds. Haunted-house employees caught us and lifted us to our feet as we clumsily slid by. The final drop at the Beast, which is one block away from the
Edge of Hell, is a straight slide that hurls people down four frightful flights in four seconds.
My roommate and I were OK,
but frazzled. I only wish we could have been photographed riding the slides like the pictures taken at amusement parks. It would have been a nice memorie from our Thursday-night fright fest.
So, if you're looking for a freaky fright night this Halloween season, check out the haunted houses in Kansas City. Loud noises, awesome theme rooms and scary drifting people await you.
The Edge of Hell and The Beast are open Wednesday through Sunday until Wednesday, Oct. 11, and then will be open daily for Halloween thrillseekers.

Meet the Parents? No thanks
Film from director of Austin Powers falls short with hilarity
Ben Stiller and Teri Palo star in Meet the Parents, a comedy about the trouble Greg Focker (Stilller) goes through when meeting his girlfriend's parents. Contributed photo.
Review
By Clare McLellan Kansan movie critic
The guy who made Austin Powers directed Meet the Parents, so it has to be funny right? Original at least?
Well, apparently not.
The movie, from director Jay Roach, has its moments. But essentially it fell flat in its comic attempts, relying on quite a bit of farce with worn-out jokes tossed in. What's missing here is the writing team behind Austin Powers and its equally entertaining sequel. It seems the director only can do so much.
The basic plot idea is not a terribly fresh theme — guy meets girl, falls in love, has to meet her parents who, of course, are highly protective of their precious little girl for whom no one is good enough. Then guy gets freaked out when faced with overzealous dad, does crazy things to try to impress him, and winds up even further behind in the rat race than before and an even bigger rat in the eyes of the father.
In this case, however, the father goes slightly beyond the average bizarre parent. He taught the family cat to use the toilet, owns a lie detector machine to torment his daughter's boyfriend and has cameras lurking in every seemingly harmless household decoration (part of a new babysitter protection scheme). So there's potential for some funny stuff inherent in these antics.
And you can't argue with such high-caliber actors as Robert DeNiro playing

Jack Byrnes (the dad) and Ben Stiller as Greg Focker (the boyfriend).
Blythe Danner does a perfect job as Dina Byrnes (the mom) and relative newcomer Teri Polo plays Pam (the girlfriend). They all turn in fine performances — for what they had to work with.
There were just too many times in this movie where you could hear pauses for laughter, but it just wasn't that great of a joke. Take Stiller's name — Focker, OK, Ha Ha. Change one "o" to a "u" and we have a cuss word. For most of us whose sense of humor has matured since fifth grade, this bit has been retired. The writers of this film opted to run it into the ground.
The cat using the toilet was amusing.
as was DeNiro's "anti-dog" speech and his refusal to accept anything about Greg. The end of the film offers the most laughs, with scenes allowing Stiller to showcase his gift for frustrated comedy. Stiller shines when placed under pressure and is allowed to rant.
Although DeNiro does a decent job with this role, one might wonder why he was chosen. DeNiro isn't historically a comedian, while he can handle almost any part, he seems a bit out of his element in this film.
He walks the line between being a tough guy and being a goober, and the resulting character is not distinct enough.
Its few moments of true humor aside, Meet the Parents doesn't come close to the hilarity director Roach proved capable of in Austin Powers. It had the potential, but it just fell short in the execution.
Throw those writers a bone here because they just didn't get it.

Titans predictable, entertaining
Review
By Michael Riga
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
1980
Take one part Disney and add one part football and one part Denzel Washington.
Remember the Titans, starring Denzel Washington, is based on the story of a high school football team's struggles during integration. Contributed photo.
The end result, undoubtedly, is Remember the Titans, a predictable and memorable — yet forgivingly short — movie about the trials of a high school football team in the age of integration.
Remember the Titans is set in Alexandria, Va., just outside of Washington, D.C. It begins before the start of the football season of the first year the local high school — T.C. Williams — was fully integrated.
The controversy starts whentenured coach Bill Yoast (Will Patton) is replaced by younger Herman Boone (Washington), who happens to be African-American. Off the bat, the gaping differences between Yoast's and Boone's styles become apparent, as does the cultural differences between the town's Caucasian and African-American communities.
While the team is undeniably divided at the film's start, it quickly gels when it goes through Boone's preseason boot camp.
On one of the last days of camps, Boone calls the entire team out of its residence halls at 3 a.m. to go jogging. The team runs, fittingly, to Gettysburg, where Boone delivers a speech that suddenly makes the kids forget about the racial barriers and instantly become a team. It is a beautiful speech, but I
couldn't help but feel disappointed that it didn't start with "Four score and seven years ago."
After the Titans return from camp, they get on with the business of playing football. First of all, I love football movies — even bad ones, such as The Replacements — so I am a little biased. The only problem I have with football movies is that the filmmakers obviously know little about football, and that is the case here.
Every tackle is a highlight-reel collision. All of the touchdowns are scored off big plays. And all of the games are close.
But the football scenes are watchable and entertaining, and Titans would go down as one of the greatest football movies ever made if it weren't for one problem — the little girl.
The little girl I am taking about is Sheryl Yoast, the daughter of Bill Yeost played by 9-year-old Hayden Panettiere, otherwise known as the most annoying character ever portrayed on film.
For some reason, director Boaz Yokin made Sheryl know everything about football. she watches film with Boone, goes to the locker

toom during games and screams to the team about obscure football references such as "44 stack, 50 monster." That's a defense, I think.
But overall, Remember the Titans is an enjoyable movie, and Washington delivers his usual strong performance, and producer Jerry Bruckheime makes the movie visually pleasing.
Like all sports movies, the plot is predictable, and you can tell liberties were taken with the "true story" on which the film is supposed to be based.
But Remember The Titans is an entertaining way to spend an evening, and its short running time
entertaining way to spend an evening, and its short running time — less than two hours — means you can watch the movie and still have time to hang out with your date or in my case, drive her home.
But please, do yourself a favor. Ignore Sheryl.

Book of narratives captures its readers
By Clay McCusition
editor@kansan.com
Features Editor
Gig tantalizes and excites the reader.
The volume, a collection of first-person narratives devoted to the subject of work, flits from one juicy piece of information to another. Curious about work habits of a super model. Hollywood producer or porn star? It's all here.
Edited by word.com con-
Edited by word.com contributors John Bowe, Marisa Bowe and Sabin Streeter, *Gig* is not designed for linear reading. Few people would sit down and read the entire 548-page volume. It's not
GIG
Interest ●●●●●
Consistency ●●●○○
Thoroughness ●●●●●
designed for that. Instead, the collection is constructed for enjoyable browsing — to be dipped into at will.
Bowes and Streeter have accomplished the remarkable logistical task of interviewing 126 people and boiling down those interviews into concise, two-or-three-page essays. Every story is chock full of interesting tidbits and great one-liners.
in certain cases, though, such as the interview with "Robert G.," a bookie, the volume perpetuates stereotypes. The bookie's interview reads like a third-rate mystery novel, written by a terminally dull author.
But such missteps are few.
"James R.," a high school basketball coach, provides gripping reading as he shows his passionate desire to win. The coach works at a Catholic high school and isn't afraid to reveal his sometimes-underbanded tactics (recruiting a player from Finland, for example).
Perhaps the most intriguing section details the working life of Neal Smither, a crime scene cleaner. Smither's account of cleaning up after brutal, bloody deaths has to be read to be believed. Don't try this one after lunch.
Despite the book's great interest, it carries a darker message. The theme is dissatisfaction. Few of the workers, although they seldom admit to hating their jobs, are truly satisfied with their place in society.
As an objective collection of interviews, however, Gig does little to address the points that these individuals raise. The reader must deal with the array of work, lives and problems and come to his or her own conclusion.

Baryshnikov troupe to perform
Group reflects on controversial '60s-style dances
Katie Nelson Special to the Kansan
When Mikhail Baryshnikov and his modern dance troupe, the White Oak Dance Project, perform Tuesday and Wednesday night at the Lied Center, audience members who expect to see the living legend execute the dramatic turns
and magnificent jumps from his youth may be disappointed.

however, will have a pleasant treat
The 11-year-old White Oak Dance
Project, produced by Baryshnikov
Productions, will perform
PastForward, a collection of modern dance works commissioned by prominent '60s American choreographers. The presentation strives to show how modern dance reflects its complex time of creation and how it has impacted all art forms in the 21st century.
"It was a controversial period of choreography," said Joan Stone, instructor of music and dance. "It is wonderful that the White Oak Dance Project is taking these choreographers so seriously."
The troupe features Baryshnikov, five women and one other man. The performers' backgrounds range from classical ballet to post-modern dance.
In addition to the professional dancers, 45 Lawrence community members also will perform.
"We made an effort to represent the entire community, both the University community and the city
of Lawrence," said Karen Christilles, director of public relations and interim associate executive director of the Lied Center.
A panel, "PostForward Dance from the '60s through Today: Connecting Hudson Church and Mikhail Baryshnikov," also will be offered at 7:30 p.m. Monday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St.
Tickets for the Lied Center performance can be purchased through the Lied Center, the Murphy Hall Box Office or any Ticketmaster outlet.

Those are the sounds of Phalanges, a Christian musical group based in the St. Louis area.
Klank! Ding! Boom! Tap-tap!
Smack!
Its sound resonates from instruments the average person might consider junk — wooden staffs, hubscaps, tic-tac boxes and trash cans — which they use to create a series of rhythms and beats that resemble the Broadway show Stomp.
University of Kansas students Mark Poshak and Andrew Koebbe, Kirkwood, Mo., juniors, are two of the group's three members. The
Band creates unusual sounds spreads Christian message
By Fay Brody
Poshak and Koebbe have known each other all their lives and met Murphy when they were 10. They began performing together in community theater and founded the Phalanges shortly after attending a matinee performance of Stomp. The trio immersed themselves in the music, using brooms and wooden poles, and prepared their first number for a church talent show in 1996 in Kirkwood, Mo.
Special to the Kansan
third member, Andy Murphy,
is a junior at Duke University
in Durham. N.C.
Members of the Phalanges said they believed they had been inspired by God. Not long after they began performing, they were on a mission trip
and were approached by a youth leader who suggested the group include a Christian message in its music. The three men ran with the idea.
Since then, the Phalanges have spent the past two summers touring the country performing at festivals and for youth groups, camps and churches. The group's big break came last January when it performed for Groupworks Camps in front of 2,000 youth leaders.
"The switch to a Christian message was a big thing for us," Poshak said. "The Lord just took it from there."

"We made an effort to represent the entire community, both the University community and the city
of Lawrence," said Karen Christilles, director of public relations and interim associate executive director of the Lied Center.
A panel, "PastForward Dance from the '60s through Today: Connecting Hudson Church and Mikhail Baryshnikov," also will be offered at 7:30 p.m. Monday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St.
Tickets for the Lied Center performance can be purchased through the Lied Center, the Murphy Hall Box Office or any Ticketmaster outlet.

Those are the sounds of Phalanges, a Christian musical group based in the St. Louis area.
Its sound resonates from instruments the average person might consider junk — wooden staffs, hubcaps, tic-tac boxes and trash cans — which they use to create a series of rhythms and beats that resemble the Broadway show Stomp.
University of Kansas students Mark Poshak and Andrew Koebsh, Kirkwood, Mo., juniors, are two of the group's three members. The

Band creates unusual sounds, spreads Christian message
By Fay Brody
Poshak and Koebbe have known each other all their lives and met Murphy when they were 10. They began performing together in community theater and founded the Phalanges shortly after attending a matinee performance of Stomp. The trio immersed themselves in the music, using brooms and wooden poles, and prepared their first number for a church talent show in 1996 in Kirkwood, Mo.
and were approached by a youth leader who suggested the group include a Christian message in its music. The three men ran with the idea.
"The switch to a Christian message was a big thing for us," Poshak said. "The Lord just took it from there."
Since then, the Phalanges have spent the past two summers touring the country performing at festivals and for youth groups, camps and churches. The group's big break came last January when it performed for Groupworks Camps in front of 2,000 youth leaders.

Lawrence expects 15,000 Wildcat fans
By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
If the state of Kansas can prove anything, it's that the combination of the crimson and blue worn by KU Jayhawk fans and the purple of the Kansas State Wildcat fans can make a combustible mixture.
And that mix will be watched closely tomorrow when the state turns its attention to Lawrence for the annual Kansas-Kansas State game at Memorial Stadium.
Lawrence hotels are booked, and local bars are anticipating one of their biggest days as an estimated 15,000 Wildcat fans are expected to make the trip down the turnpike. The prospect of those fans has Lawrence businesses excited and the local police bracing.
Rick Renfro, owner of Johnny's Tavern,
401 N. Second St., said his business was
relying on the influx of Wildcat supporters
tomorrow.
we expect to do two to three times our usual Saturday business," Renfro said. "We usually see a lot of K-State fans."
To help the Jayhawk fan get excited about the game, the Athletics Department and the
City of Lawrence have planned a pep rally — rain or shine — for tonight at 5:30. The rally will be on Eighth Street between Massachusetts and New Hampshire streets and will feature ticket giveaways, an appearance by Jayhawk coach Terry Allen and his players, and a Wildcat roar.
"If we had a winning team, we would have thousands of fans at the rally," said Judy Billings, director of the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau. "But it would be terrific to get students out there."
"Typically, it's a million-dollar weekend," Billings said. "They come in and buy food, gas, extra stuff for tailgates. K-State is a big weekend economically."
But as big as the weekend promises to be for Lawrence businesses, it could be just as emotional for fans who let their emotions get the best of them. The rivalry of the "Sunflower Showdown" and the added number of fans — 50,000 are expected means the Lawrence Police Department will be on the lookout tomorrow.
"We are always concerned with people's safety," said Det. M.T. Brown said, who added that extra officers would be on duty tomorrow. "We don't want people to get too swept up in their emotions."

An estimated 400,000 people gather to hear Dr. Vojislav Kostunica speak from the balcony of City Hall in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. Kostunica claimed yesterday that he is the new President of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Some reports out of Belgrade suggest that Slobodan Milosevic may have fled the country.

Protesters attempt to oust Milosevic
KU students, teachers watch history unfold hope for peaceful end
By Lori O'Toole editor@kansan.com
Kansan wire editor
Uros Petrovic, graduate student grew up in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, and spent yesterday evening trying to contact some of his relatives and friends still there — many of them who he guessed were participating in massive political protests that overtook the city.
He watched news casts and read Internet updates about rioters seeking to topple Slobodan Milosevic. They left parliament and other key Belgrade sites in shambles and flames. The 13-year rule of the Yugoslav president appeared near collapse.
Yesterday mobs swarmed through the capital to demand that Milosevic accept his apparent electoral defeat by Vojislav Kostunica in the Sept. 24 election. As demonstrators charged and riot police cowered behind helmets and shields, the federal parliament building, the state broadcasting center and police stations fell in quick succession.
Petrovic couldn't get in touch with anyone he knew in Belgrade, which had him worried. The 31-year-old is also concerned with the possibility of bloodshed in his former home city.
Petrovic, who spoke of hopes of democracy and a developed and free Europe, said he hoped he was witnessing a new emerging Serbian identity.
"It was about time for Milosevic to step away," he said.
"Sometimes I wish I was there right now to take part in the historical event that just occurred," he

Ron Francisco, political science professor, is likely to mention the protests in Yugoslavia in his Protest and Revolution class today.
He said it follows the classic theory of protest: lots of people will participate if there is a low risk and low cost of protest, and if they feel they can make a difference.
"There was a free election, and elections are powerful, and he refused to acknowledge that he didn't win," said Francisco, who specializes in the study of protests. "That's why it happened."
He said police and army officials agreed with the protesters that Milosevic should step down — leaving the president with a diminished ability to suppress the rioting mobs.
"It's pretty clear to everybody that there's no support for Milosevic," Francisco said.
The government acknowledges that Kostunica outpolled Milosevic in the Sept. 24 election but says he fell short of a majority in the five-candidate race. A runoff had been set for Sunday.
There was no immediate reaction from Milosevic, who has been indicted as an international war criminal for atrocities committed during wars as pieces of Yugoslavia have broken away from the country. His whereabouts were not clear yesterday evening.

Parents ask railroad to help prevent deaths
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
William Mitchell misses his son.
He knows his son should not have driven around the crossing gates last April, but he wonders why there were not more preventative measures.
Mitchell's son, Jeffrey J. Mitchell from Beresford, S.D., was a University of Kansas freshman last year. He died after he drove around a gate at a railroad crossing just east of Lawrence and was hit by a train. His roommate, Ryan J. Travis, was pronounced dead at the scene. The third passenger, a 20-year-old Johnson County Community College student, Nathan C. Roy, lived.
Mitchell wonders what could have been done to prevent the tragedy.
"I'm not out for vengeance or revenge," Mitchell said. "All I'm asking is why can't we put gates that go all the way across the road. I just don't want to see any more young people die."
Mitchell said he knew of Chicago suburbs where gates covered the entire road.
Mitchell was outraged last spring when he visited the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad crossing, near where 15th Street turns into North 1500 Road. Mitchell and his wife had traveled to the University to empty their son's room in McCollum Hall, and they visited the scene with Travis' parents.
"Just as we arrived, the gates went down, and a train came," Mitchell said. "It was a joke. While we were standing there, we watched cars go around the gate. They didn't even have to go around it. All you have to do is get in the other lane, go straight across and just get back into the other lane on the other side."
Peter W. Balgemann, vice chairman of the Public Works and Buildings Committee for Elmhurst, Ill., a suburb of Chicago, said his city had gates installed at five railroad crossings three years ago.
The city did not choose gates that would cover both lanes because of the expense. Instead, it chose one-lane gates and installed orange pylons down the center line — starting 50 to 75 feet before the crossing — to prevent cars from driving around the gates. He said the 3-foot-tall pylons did

Students to lose jobs at Sallie Mae
Almost 50 area college students will be looking for new jobs this winter.
By Theresa Freed Special to the Kansan
Sallie Mae Student Loan Servicing Corporation, 2000 Bluffs Drive, is closing its Lawrence office after 16 years and moving to Indiana. The office's last day of operation will be Friday, Dec. 22. Last month, the company announced the termination dates for employees in its Lawrence departments.
Elaine Nelson, Sallie Mae's vice president of Kansas operations, said the company was interested in keeping a full staff until the last day.
"We want to keep spirits up, and we want people to work until we close," Nelson said. "We want to make this a win-win situation for the company and our employees."
But KU students who will be losing their jobs are having a hard time seeing much win in the situation.
Valerie Stone, Lawrence senior, has been with the company for almost a year. She knows it will be tough to find another job that pays as well. Liaie Mae's starting wage is about $10 an hour for most positions.
"Many places don't want to hire students due to their schedules," Stone said. "And when a job is actually found, it will take a while to build seniority and the most desired shift."
Jason VanBlarcum, Lawrence junior, is also disappointed about the news that Sallie Mae will close.

Fraternities to run for leukemia benefit
Members of the Lawrence and Manhattan chapters of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity will run the game ball for the Kansas-Kansas State University football game from Manhattan to Lawrence in the 27th annual Phi Gamma Delta Run for Leukemia today.
The run begins in Manhattan early today and ends at the Phi Gamma Delta house in Lawrence tonight.
The two Phi Gamma Delta chapters organize the run each year in memory of Rod Morgan, a fraternity brother who died of Leukemia in 1974.
All proceeds are donated to the Kansas Chapter of the Leukemia Society of America.
A check will be presented by the fraternity to a representative of the Morgan family during halftime of the game.
Last year, the run generated $39,000 for cancer research.
a ceremony to dedicate a news van to the School of Journalism will be at 2 p.m. today on the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall.
School of Journalism to dedicate news van
A brief gathering is scheduled to honor Barbara and Bud Weir for donating the van that will be used by KUHK, the student radio station, and KUJH, the student television station.
Brandon Stinnett
Max Utsler, associate professor of journalism, said the van was designed with "production in mind" and would serve as a valuable resource for journalism students covering University events.

Senator wants to avoid lawsuit in water dispute
TOPEKA — U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts doesn't like talk by two environmental groups about filing a federal lawsuit involving water quality standards for Kansas.
Roberts said yesterday that he thought state officials and the Environmental Protection Agency can work out their differences involving standards proposed by the federal agency.
The senator contends a lawsuit would make finding a compromise more difficult.
Critics, including state officials and agriculture groups, contend the EPA standards would be too burdensome, require too much paperwork and force local communities to spend millions of dollars. The EPA has portrayed the cost of its proposed standards as minimal.
The Sierra Club and the Kansas Natural Resource Council notified the EPA on Wednesday that they plan to file a lawsuit if the EPA does not put its proposed standards into effect by Sunday, Dec. 3. The groups contend the standards should have taken effect Sunday under the 1972 federal Clean Water Act.
"I would hope we could work something out," he said. "If we're just granted a little more time, we could get past this."
But Roberts said the EPA has expressed a willingness to work with Kansas officials.

Company wants time to switch area codes
Southwestern Bell has asked the Kansas Corporation Commission to reconsider its schedule for putting the 620 area code into effect. Under the commission's plan, a period of "permissive" dialing, where people could use either the old or new area code, would be in effect from Jan. 1 until March 31.
TOPEKA — The largest local telephone service company in Kansas is worried that state regulators haven't given it enough time to prepare for a new area code in southern Kansas.
The commission's plan would split the Wichita area from the rest of the state covered by the 316 area code. The Wichita area would keep 316, while other communities would have 620.
The new area code will be the state's fourth. The
785 area code, for northern Kansas outside the Kansas City metropolitan area, took effect in 1997. The Kansas City region kept the 913 area code
Each area code has nearly 800 three-digit prefixes available. Each prefix can have 10,000 numbers. That means an entire area code has about 8 million seven-digit numbers available.
Under the commission's decision, the 316 code will cover most of Butler, Harvey and Sedgwick counties and small pieces of Cowley, Reno and Summer counties. Besides Wichita, it will include Augusta, Derby, Newton, Haysville and El Dorado
The 620 area code will cover the rest of the territory now covered by the 316 area code.

KJHK to broadcast from Kansas Union
By Luke Wetzel
By Luke Wetzel
Special to the Kansan
Beginning next semester, KJKH 90.7 FM will broadcast from a second location.
The station will expand into a new studio in the Kansas Union — a more central location than the main studios at Sudder Annex, northwest of
Memorial Stadium.
The studio, which will consist of little more than countertop and a glass partition, will be in the atrium south of the Hawk's Nest on the third floor.
an officer of the Haverssas offi ce of the U.S.
Pat Beard, building services director for the
Union, said the site was chosen because it was
available and faced Union traffic.
"I'll be a man-on-the-street type thing." he said.
"It significantly increases our visibility," he said. "We have to get our dial presence out there."
Gary Hawke, KJHK general manager, said the studio would help connect the station with students.
Marle Dispenza, JKH station manager and Lee's Summit, Mo., junior, said the new studio would benefit talk shows the most but would not be limited to them.
Dispenza said individual disc jockeys would decide whether to air their shows from the new studio.
"We'll have a variety of shows," she said. "It will probably be the same as the regular schedule."
Miles Bonny, Teaneck, N.J., sophomore and host of the 2 to 4 a.m. Sunday rock rotation, said he hoped the new studio would deter students from thinking of KJHK as a little shack in the middle of nowhere.
Beard said the studio would bring traffic to the Union — something David Mucci, Union director, would like to see.
"The goal of the unions is to be the living room of the University," he said.
"I get the feeling that people have heard of KJHK but they don't really know what it is," he said. "I think it'll be real cool."
The idea for the satellite studio grew from discussion between Mucci and Hawke when the now-defunct cybercafe idea was first presented.
"I had talked to him about having more of a KJ presence," Hawke said. "It will be really great for both of us."
Other traffic-builders planned for next year include a 40-station computer lab and a convenience store-style information desk.
"We weink we can open it up to a much larger market," Beard said of the planned convenience store. The computer lab, however, will be for student use only.
The Union studio will be completed during winter break and will be ready for the spring semester.

Jewish students to celebrate Yom Kippur
By Jennifer Valadez
Sue Shafer-Landau, Hillel adviser,
said that Yom Kippur occurred on
the ninth day after the Jewish new
year, Rosh Hashanah.

Kansan staff writer
Sunset on Sunday marks the beginning of Yom Kippur, a time when the Jewish community will observe a solemn period of forgiveness.
Translated from Hebrew as "Day of Atonement," the Jewish holiday ends at sundown Monday.
"It is a time to reflect on the past year and to ask forgiveness from others," she said. "It's a time to clean the slate for the next year."
Jews also traditionally commemorate Yom Kippur by fasting and asking for forgiveness from God.
"It's considered to be the most solemn day of the year," Shafer- Landau said.
Heather Karlin, Atlanta junior,
said it was a time she could spend
with family and friends as she
repeated for her sins.
"Also, it gives me a feeling of comfort knowing that I can pray freely in synagogue and be proud of being a Jewish person," she said.
Andrew Zidel, Minnetonka, Minn., junior, said the fast was symbolic of humankind admitting imperfection.
"It's symbolic because the fast is cleansing of the soul," he said. "It's a time to prove to God that you're

Mara Reichman, Overland Park junior, said a prayer called the Kol Nidre, was recited three times on the holiday. The prayer, which is an introduction to the holiday, is one in which forgiveness from God is humply requested. Reichman said
"I think about what I have done wrong during the past year and how I can improve myself in the year to come," she said.
Yom Kippur was a holiday that became more meaningful to her as she matured.
Scholars program retains minorities

Renate Mai-Dalton, director of the Multicultural Business Scholars Program, tries to personally know every student she works with.
Such a statistic is unusual for the University of Kansas, which, like many universities, struggles with minority retention. The number of minority freshman enrolled at KU is up 13.9 percent, from 360 students last fall to 410 students this fall. But total enrollment of minority students has dropped consistently during the last few years and is now at 8.9 percent of the student body.
It's this kind of interaction with students that has helped maintain the program's retention rate at nearly 85 percent in its eight years. Mat-Dalton said.
Mai-Dalton said she thought the program, which was unique to the business school, offered a solution, at least for minority students majoring in business.
"We are widely successful in terms of retention," she said. "Once they come with us, they usually are successful."
Successful means a group GPA of 3.1. During the last four years, that number hasn't fallen below 3.0, Malai-Dalton said, and it's never been below 2.8.
The program began in 1992 with seven scholars, but today 34 students participate. Maidalton, associate professor of business, said she would take applications at any time. During the last four years, two of the business school's top graduates have been members of the program.
Mai-Dalton attributes success to many factors. Need- and merit-based scholarships of up to $2,000 help students with finances, Mai-Dalton said. In addition, she and 15 other faculty members provide extensive mentoring

major advantage. Meetings with Mal-Dalton and other professors allow problems to be solved in their early stages.
"I think what makes her program successful is the individual attention students get," said Adrienne Rivers, an associate professor of journalism who is developing a similar program in the School of Journalism.
In addition to mentoring, Mat-Dalton requires students to attend monthly group events, including operas and art shows — even eating out.
"It's all part of a good education," Mai-Dalton said. "I'm here to educate them for life."
Sigala said the program exposed her to new ideas.
"I know that a lot of things we've done I never would have thought of on my own," Sigala said. "I think it's sort of to prepare us for the real world."
In addition to exposure, the events have provided a way for students to meet each other.
"It feels so much more comfortable when you know people in the class," Mai-Dalton said, adding that unity within minority groups was important. "It feels comfortable when we are with people who have a similar view of life."
Mai-Dalton said she hadn't heard about a program like hers on any other campus. The keys to its success, she said, are unconditional acceptance and a belief in excellence.
"I wish we could have a program like this in every single department," she said.

Physicians, victims emphasize need for early breast cancer detection
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"Her cancer was so scary," Rios said. "For a while there, we didn't know if she was going to make it."
Lore Rios, Mission senior, knows a lot about breast cancer. Her mother was diagnosed two years ago, and both of their lives changed dramatically.
Her mother's cancer spread fast, and within two weeks of diagnosis, she had received a double mastectomy.
Breast cancer is the most deadly cancer for American women,
killing an estimated 44,000 women in America this year. And the number is increasing. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the University is doing its part in educating students about the disease.
Myra Strother, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said it was important for women to get breast check-ups because the disease could spread rapidly and could be deadly if untreated. The American Cancer Society recommends that women get clinical
"Women should be doing a monthly check, right in between your cycle, so the breasts aren't tender."
breast examinations by doctors every year and perform self-examinations monthly.
Strother said. "If they see any mass, get it evaluated. Don't just ignore it."
Strother also said it was never too early to start examining for breast cancer. Even though the cancer is more prevalent in older women, she said, younger women also are susceptible to the disease.
Rios said her mother's battle with the disease led her to notice more information about the cancer in the media.
"It's good to see a women's health issue be brought to the public eye," she said.
It's not just a women's issue, however. Strother said men could be affected by the disease, too.
"It is rare, but we do see men with breast mass," Strother said. "We encourage males with mass to come in and get evaluated."
According to the American Cancer society, about 400 men die from breast cancer each year. Strother suggested that both men
and women take steps to detect and prevent the disease.
Strother said there were factors that might lower the risks of cancer and promote overall health.
"Not smoking and a diet high in fiber and low in fat may reduce the chances," she said. "But for women, just being female and heredity and aging are unpreventable factors, so we more importantly encourage early detection."
Rios said she thought her chances of developing breast cancer were high.
"Cancer is so prevalent in my family," she said. "I think it's just
a matter of time before I end up with cancer."
Jayhawk Communications, a student-run public relations firm on campus, is sponsoring Lee National Denim Day today. Denim Day is a fund-raising day of education about the disease and research. The group's goal is to raise enough money to fill a pair of Chancellor Robert Hemenway's jean shorts.
Donations will be collected at a booth, which will also provide pink ribbons and breast cancer information, on Wescoe Beach from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Risky tax cuts could hurt U.S. economy
The good news is that at least one presidential candidate has outlined a plan that will pay off the national debt in only 12 years. That's great, because eliminating the debt helps our economy and keeps interest rates low. Poor college students like low interest rates because they could save thousands of dollars on loans, whether it be for tuition, cars or houses.
The bad news is that candidate — George W. Bush — could get elected and screw things up. Bush wants sweeping tax cuts to give the projected budget surplus "back to the people so they can decide what to do with it." Who could possibly not like that?
First, most Americans agree that paying off the national debt should be a higher priority than tax cuts.
Because of the great economy, most Americans are doing fine. Sure, they don't like paying taxes, but they know that paying off the debt is important.
Americans also are more concerned whether Social Security and Medicare will still be around when they retire.
Second, big tax cuts would negatively affect our economy. Even Federal Reserve
Chairman Alan Greenspan warned Congress last July against going on either a spending or tax-cutting spree. Why? When the economy is bad, we often increase government spending or cut taxes to increase consumer spending; people with more money will buy more things. The result: the economy grows. But right now, our economy is already growing and almost too fast. If we increase consumer spending now, that could cause the prices on everything to increase (inflation).
David Grummon columnist opinion@kansan.com
JACK PATRICK
What happens if we cut taxes and flood the economy with more money? People will spend it, creating more "demand" and inflation will skyrocket. That will mess up the good economy, and that's the last thing we want.
Third, cutting taxes now would go further to complete the not-so-hidden agenda Republicans in Congress have pursued since Newt Gingrich ran the House of Representatives. While trying to balance the budget, many programs designed to help the poor, elderly, disabled and lower middle classes were cut to the bone or eliminated, such as job retraining, child nutrition, and investments in education and infrastructure. Cuts had to be made to balance the budget, but most of the money for these important programs never was restored once the budget was balanced and we started running surpluses. Republicans in Congress never intended to restore their funding. Now that they've slashed and burned such programs, Republicans want to cut taxes to keep that money in their pockets.
I understand that individual control of your own money is a central theme of Republican philosophy. And I'm not opposed to the idea of cutting taxes itself. What bothers me now is the size, the timing and where the tax cuts are proposed. If it is true that proposed elimination of the so-called marriage penalty and the death tax (which only affects the largest estates) actually results in subsidizing only the wealthiest of Americans, then it's hard to believe such cuts are necessary or beneficial.
A more sensible approach has been proposed by Kansas Congressman Dennis Moore. He supports using half of the budget surplus to pay off the debt, which will lower long-term interests rates for home buyers, saving them thousands during the long run. This helps the middle class, helps the economy and doesn't rip off the poor simply to help the rich.
When former Kansas Sen. Bob Dole tried to save his slipping presidential campaign in 1996 by offering a huge tax cut for all Americans, we saw it for what it was: A desperate attempt to get votes. Four years later, I'm hoping Americans again can look past that temptation. Big tax cuts now, as Bush has proposed, wouldn't help those who need help and would screw up our economy. To all the rest of us, that's really bad news.

Dissection imperative to learning anatomy
Sometimes personal motivation confuses me. It happens, and I normally just let it slide. However, on occasion an issue crops up that exasperates me so much that I am forced to come out of my lab to comment on it. After careful contemplation of last Thursday's headline article, I have come up with two options for Janice Manuel: Take the damn test or find a new major.
Okay everybody, take a few deep breaths. Don't get mad now, I've only begun. I'll explain myself, I swear.
Dissection is not for everyone. In my opinion, if you are not a biology major or are not in the pre-medical program, your position on dissection is your own business. It doesn't adversely affect anyone; therefore, I can respect your choice not to dissect. However, if you are a biology major, especially if you are pre-medicine, dissection shouldn't

My argument is about the quality of education for KU biology students, particularly those who are preparing for medical school. There is no possibility to learn about mammalian physiology without at least some dissection. The student in question and her advocates show their short-sightedness through several assertions that exhibit a distinct lack of familiarity with rigorous pre-medical preparation. I believe that dissection is an integral part of this preparation, and efforts to substitute it will be either unviable or educationally worthless.
even be an issue; it should be an understood part of the curriculum. You shouldn't ask not to dissect if you decide to major in biology.

There are several animated, semi-interactive dissections on the Internet, as well as one frog dissection walk-through that is photographed. Honesty, I feel that these are a total waste of time. Let me ask everyone a question: How much pressure does it take to cut through skin, muscle or bone? How do you hold a scalpel to make your incision as straight and controlled as possible? What does a computerized dissection simulation tell you about these things? Nothing. Are they important? Absolutely, if you want to be a physician. You want good surgeons, right? Me too. I want them to have had lots of practice with a knife. You should, too.
Many of the Pre-Allied Health students are required to take either a human dissection or dissection observation lab. In fact, the Division of Biological Sciences restricts these labs to those majors because there just aren't that many cadavers to work with. This is one reason why the rest of us use animals to dissect instead. Anyone who claims that animals offer no benefit or perspective on human anatomy has obviously never dissected one. The fetal pigs that are dissected in BIOL 152 show a striking similarity to human physiology, which is (I'm assuming) why they were selected in the first place. Just one of the benefits of common descent.
2) Human cadavers are hard to come by, especially for undergraduates.
So that's it, Janice. I'm not trying to change anyone's belief system — that would violate my own. However, I am asking you to consider the ramifications of your current actions. I also am asking you to consider changing to a discipline where the course work does not conflict so directly with your beliefs.
Even if you win this round, I can guarantee that this will not be the last. I also can guarantee that medical schools will not be nearly as accommodating as your professors have been.

Editorial
Alternate oil source necessary
Dipping into country's oil reserves reveals a poor energy policy
Some people might find it puzzling that Clinton released oil from the strategic reserve so close to the election, but the decision is not purely political. Despite the necessity of the release, we need a better energy policy that emphasizes renewable and energy efficiency.
Clinton has made the election of Al Gore a major part of his presidential legacy. It's no wonder the oil release looks suspicious a month before the election. A series of factors beyond control made the release necessary. OPEC is producing less oil, and meteorologists predict that this will be the coldest winter in ten years. We need the oil in the market to keep homes heated.
Will 30 billion barrels of oil bring gas prices down so low that the average American doesn't hold it against Gore at the polls? Probably not. The entire country consumes 18 billion barrels of oil per day.
Don't forget that Gore loses from the release as well. Whether gas prices go up or down in November, the release can be perceived as collusion, and that makes Gore look bad. The release gives something Bush and Cheney can use as political fodder for their campaign.
If we are going to criticize Al "Earth In the Balance" Gore, it should be for his sloppy work with alternative energy. Dipping into the country's strategic petroleum reserve every time OPEC cuts production reveals a poor energy policy.
What we need now is emphasis on renewable energy sources, hybrid cars and regulations on energy efficiency. It's not fair to criticize only Gore on this issue because Bush isn't advocating a viable energy policy. Whittling away the reserve a billion barrels at a time will have to work until a candidate voices a strong opposition to oil dependence.

Book sale liquidates library's literary gems
Bv Katin Teako
Special to the Kansan
Students looking for cheap Christmas presents, cookbooks or textbooks may want to check out the 28th annual book sale at the Lawrence Public Library, which opened last night to the Friends of the Library and will be open to the public tomorrow through Tuesday.
"This is a great place for Christmas shopping for students on a budget," said Sandra Wiechert, community relations coordinator for the library. 707 Vermont St.
The book sale is the library's biggest fundraiser of the year. The money buys books and needed equipment for the library.

Throughout the year, as people donate books to the library, volunteers from the Friends of the Library sort the books and price them. The group then gets first crack at the books before the public has a chance to buy on Saturday.
Wiechert said that most of the books were used but that some were new.
The Friends of the Library sell more than 100,000 books a year. The group raised more than $45,000 last year.
Norman Saul, president of the group and professor of history at the University of Kansas,
said the sale usually attracted about 2,000 to 3,000 people.
This year, many of the popular categories of books romance, mystery, science fiction and fiction cost 50 cents per book. With the purchase of four of these books, buyers receive a fifth free. The sale also includes cookbooks, large "coffee table" or "gift books" and some textbooks.
Wiechert encouraged people to continue coming through the last day of the sale because the group constantly was bringing out new boxes of books. She said a process would be announced for the distribution of leftovers.
The sale will be today from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Books will be halfprice from noon to 9 p.m.
Monday. Tuesday, the last day of the sale, will
be Bag Night. People may purchase a bag for $5
and take home as many books as they can fit.
Membership forms for Friends of the Library are available at the circulation desk of the library. The membership fee is $8.
The library will have another book sale in February.

The center will present 10 meetings for freshmen and two for sophomores from Monday to Thursday, Oct. 19. The meetings will offer information to help students choose spring semester classes and guidance for students who haven't declared a major.
The Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center has scheduled meetings at four residence halls, Margaret Amiini scholarship hall, Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity and Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. Advising begins just as permits to enroll are about to hit students' mailboxes, which should happen sometime next week, said Gloria Flores, associate director of the center.
Marissa Heffley, Atchison freshman, said she hoped to find out more about majoring in strategic communications in the School of Journalism.
"I want to go and make sure I've got all my requirements in," she said.
Flores said advisers are taking the meetings into student housing for the first time to give freshmen guidance on what requirements they need fulfill.
Advisers will discuss requirements for professional schools and understanding the Academic Records Tracking form.
"Freshmen, in particular, just came from new student orientation, where enrollment was tailored for them," Flores said. "Now, they're a little bit more on their own, so that's why we're going to them."
The two sophomore meetings will be geared toward preparation for declaring a major.
"We know sophomores understand the system," she said.
"What we're going to talk about with the sophomores is exploring majors."

Word of mouth boosts Writer's Roost usage
By Cassio Furtado
Special to the Kansan
Writer's Roost, a service created in fall 1988, has several tutors and campus locations to assist students in writing papers — and students are using it more and more.
When the time comes to write an essay, University of Kansas students are not alone in their quest to fill a blank page.
"We have been steadily growing and served over 2,000 students last year," said Michele Eodice, director of Writer's Roost. "In addition, we meet with thousands of students in class visits each semester."
The roots assisted 129 students during the first four weeks of school this fall, up from 34 during the same four weeks last year, she said.
Nancy Copp, Lawrence graduate student, said the Writer's Roost, which has several locations on campus, was a great service to students.
"I'm finding it very helpful, and it's free. I plan to continue coming here," she said.
Eodice said the roosts helped students with writing skills needed for more than 70 majors.
"We are truly responding to writing from all across the campus," she said. "We see freshmen in English 101 and doctoral students working on a dissertation."
Writer's Roost has opened several new locations this fall. It now has sessions in Watson Library, Templin Residence Hall Applied Resource Center, Gertrude Sellards Pearson Residence Hall, and at Room 4005 in Wescoe Hall.
"Our program is catching on with students, mainly because instructors are very supportive, but also because the student word-of-mouth to peers is very positive too," Edode said.
Students can also check the Writer's Roost online at http://www.ukans.edu/~writing.

Big Brothers/Big Sisters recruits student volunteers
By Amber Huntzinger Special to the Kansan
An area volunteer program enables students to replace tests and papers with Barbie dolls and video games for a few hours a week.
Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas County pairs adult volunteers with children ages 5 to 17.
"Right now, we need volunteers desperately," said Mary Beth Karlin, co-director. "Fifty kids are waiting, and we need to bring that list down."
The activities the volunteers and children do together vary from playing sports and shopping to playing computers and gardening, depending on their interests, Karlin said.
"We just want them to spend quality time together," she said.
E. J. Reed, a Topeka senior who volunteered as a Big Brother last year, went in-line skating and watched hockey games with his Little Brother.
"You get to interact on a personal level with someone you would have never met at KU." Reedy said, adding that he thought his Brother benefited from the interaction as well. "He got a lot of exposure to KU. He'd never really been up to campus, so he got to see a different world than he'd lived in."
Becky Price, co-director and volunteer, is matched with a girl she and her family call Kit Kat. During the summer, the Price family and KitKat go to McDonald's, the pool or just hang out together.
Karlin said some programs catered to students' schedules.
"We offer the First Friends program, which

is geared toward university students who may leave for the summer," Karlin said. "In order to utilize students, we ask for six months of their time."
Although a lapse may occur during the summer, the volunteers and kids often keep in touch, Karlm said.
The process of becoming a Big Brother or Sister starts with attending an information meeting at 5:15 p.m. each Tuesday and noon each Wednesday at the Big Brothers/Big Sisters office, 211 E. Eighth St.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old and willing to spend a minimum of three to four hours with their brother or sister each week, Karlin said.
The children are either products of single parent homes, juvenile offenders or siblings of juvenile offenders, Karlin said. The group also has started pairing pregnant teens with female volunteers.
Price said that being a Big Sister was a good experience.
"It is a joy to see the basic skills Kit Katz gets out of the time we spend together." Price said. "I definitely recommend becoming a Big Brother or Sister to university students."
Rock Chalk's entertainment benefits more than spectators
By J.D. McKee
wrter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
— Edited by Erin McDaniel
The Rock Chalk Revue is best known for its glitzy performances, but the true objective of the event is community service.
Mandy Pitler, community service coordinator and Wichita senior, said the purpose of Rock Chalk was for students to contribute to the community.
"It's a reminder of how important community service is and to give back to the host community while we're here." Pitler said.
Last year, Rock Chalk participants accumulated 28,113 hours of community service and raised $36,500 for the United Way of Douglas County. Pitler said the goals for this year were 35,000 hours of community service and $50,000.
Jo Bryant, executive director of the United Way of Douglas County, said the money went into their general fund and was then distributed according to need among the 29 service programs for which they help fund.
"We have an allocation process to decide what the need is for the community." Brvant said.
One of the programs that receives funds from the United Way is Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas County. Becky Price, co-director of the program, said the group received about $40,000 a year from
the United Way, which accounts for about 20 percent of its funding.
price said that most of the money was used for overhead costs, such as utilities, rent and supplies because other funds couldn't be used for those things.
"So much money is allocated toward new programs just because that's what people like to fund." Price said.
Pitler said not many individuals volunteered for Big Brothers/Big Sisters because of a one-year commitment but that there were other alternatives to individual volunteers.
Another group that benefits from Rock Chalk through the United Way is Women's Transitional Care Services, Inc. The Lawrence service provides a refuge for battered women and their children.
"Sometimes an entire group will sponsor a kid for a day who's been on the waiting list," she said.
Sarah Terwelp, executive director of WTCS, said much of the funding was used for basic operating services like office space, staff and utilities.
"We receive funds from the attorney general, but that's limited for direct service," Terwelp said. "That leaves all those things uncovered."
Pitler said the Rock Chalk Revue was open to the entire University. Those interested in volunteering should contact her at 864-4033.

Social welfare state receive project grant for Web site
By Jason Krall
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
University of Kansas researchers are teaming up with a state agency to help child welfare managers make the transition to a new set of federal guidelines for adoption and placing children in foster homes.
The Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services and researchers and faculty in the School of Social Welfare received a $261,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The team began a three-year project this week to develop a Web site with information on the new rules and write a curriculum for youths going to foster care.
Since the Adoption and Safe Families Act was passed in 1997, it has taken child welfare agencies almost three years to reorganize and begin handling cases under the new guidelines.
The law is designed to allow managers in agencies such as the Department of Family and Children's Services to make the best decision for a particular child. It cuts out much of the red tape that has always been associated with the foster care and adoption processes, said Beth Roberts, program assistant and project manager for the Web site.
"For the first time in child welfare, the legislation reinforces best practice instead of meeting all these paperwork oblizations." she said.
The law's most significant change is that it is making foster care more of a short-term solution. In most cases, judges now are required to either return a child home or begin the adoption process after 12 months in a foster home.
"There's some evidence that states are achieving higher adoption rates since this legislation was enacted," said Tom McDonald, professor of social welfare. He also is working to develop the Web site.
Jamie Carter, Topeka sophomore, was adopted three days after she was born and said she was wary that the law could cause more children to be returned to abusive parents. Educating child welfare providers through efforts such as the KU project could help prevent that, she said.
"Sometimes the biological parents cannot be exactly what they seem to be," she said. "They can put on a good act to get their kids back."
The bulk of the grant, about $176,000,
will be used to develop the Web site.
Another $84,000 will be used toward
work on the curriculum.
The site also will offer information on counseling and parenting classes that can prevent problems of abuse or neglect so that a child never has to be placed in foster care, McDonald said.
"The idea is to keep them from having to go into placement at all," he said. "You try to provide services within the home, and when that's not possible, then go to adoption."

Drivers ignore warnings

the same thing as a concrete median for less cost.
Keith Browning, engineer for Douglas County, said that the county had not looked into a similar system but that it might be something to pursue as traffic grew.
Mitchell said he wondered what 19-year-old wouldn't have driven around the rate.
"I don't know what his thoughts were that night, whether he was tired, whether he wanted to get home fast." Mitchell said.
A Douglas County Sheriff's deputy who worked the accident said he was informed that a car behind Jeffrey Mitchell's drove around the Mitchell's car and through the intersection without incident. That's
when Mitchell made his attempt.
"I don't hold the railroad responsible because our son chose to drive across the tracks when the gates were down," Mitchell said, but added that the railroad company needed to take preventative measures before anyone else was killed.
Three weeks after the accident, a 35-year-old Lawrence man died at a Union Pacific railroad crossing northeast of town.
Steven Forsberg, general director of public affairs for Burlington Northern Sante Fe, said railroad employees gave 8,000 presentations a year about how to be safe near railroad crossings. He said the problem was not with the railroad but with drivers who ignored warning signs.
"The most disturbing thing is when there are active gates and
lights, and someone looks down the track and sees a train and thinks, 'I can beat it.' They are taking their lives and the lives of their friends into their own hands."
Forsberg said engineers could do nothing more than lock on the brakes and blare the horns
He said Burlington Nothern Santa Fe worked with states to reduce risks by rerouting roads to keep them from crossing railroad tracks. However, Forsberg said, drivers who go around the gates are breaking the law.
Mitchell said some people would argue that it costs a lot of money for gates across all those roads.
"But it all goes back to which is more important," Mitchell said. "It costs a lot of money for funerals, too." — Edited by Kathryn Moore

Merger prompts SallieMae to leave

pays well and is sympathetic to the college student's schedule is highly impossible," he said.
The decision to close the Lawrence office was made largely because of Sallie Mae's June merger with USA Group, another player in the student-loan game. Employees were told that some of the facilities would be closing because of the 20 percent overlap in departments between the two companies. Sallie Mae, however, didn't announce that its Lawrence office would close until late August.
Nelson, who has been at the Lawrence office since its opening, said the decision to relocate to Indianapolis was based on the ability to expand USA Group's existing facilities in Indiana, not on Lawrence Sallie Mae employee performance.
"This operation closed because of redundancy in operations and is no reflection of staff here in Lawrence." Nelson said.
going to be laid off by Sallie Mae.
Nelson said the Sallie Mae building was expected to sell by Jan. 1 for about $6 million. She wouldn't disclose possible buyers but said she had received about 15 inquiries from interested buyers.
Nelson said she hoped a business would move in that could help employ the 300 employees who were
Nelson said the company was sympathetic to the needs of all its employees and would offer a substantial severance package that included a 401(k) plan, stock options and a minimum of four weeks' pay after the last day of work. She said the severance packages were unusually extensive but well-deserved.
To help those being laid off find new jobs, Sallie Mae will hold meetings between more than 30 area businesses and Sallie Mae employees. The company also is offering classes
to its employees that focus on resume writing and Internet job searches.
Nelson said that she wanted the job search for Sallie Mae employees to be as effortless as possible but that she didn't expect those being laid off would have difficulty finding new employment.
"Our employees are PC literate, have good customer interaction and should be good for jobs like banking, mutual funds and other back-office services," she said.

Middle East clashes scrutinized
The Associated Press
SHARM EL-SHEIK, Egypt — After two days of summit talks on two continents, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright yesterday called for a fact-finding committee to investigate the causes of deadly Israeli-Palestinian clashes.
Moving to curb the bloodshed, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat ordered their military commanders to separate their forces at three points in the weeklong confrontation, and there were signs of compliance on the ground.
But efforts to move a Paris round of tri-lateral talks to the region failed when Barak reversed a decision to join Albright and Arafat at the Egyptian resort town of Sharm El-Sheik.

Working to end the violence and restore peace talks, Albright called for a committee that could "build a bridge between where we are and where we need to be."
No agreement has been reached on such a committee. The Palestinians have called for an international investigation into the violence. A senior U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Israel wanted a joint Israeli-Palestinian investigation.
"There should be a fact-finding committee that looks at causes of this crisis, what has gone wrong and how we can ensure that it never happens again," Albright said after the talks.
In Washington, President Clinton said Albright's talks with Arafat and Barak were productive.
"The most important thing is to stop people dying and then to get back to the negotiating table," Clinton said.
Bomb survivors want answers
The Associated Press
OMAGH, Northern Ireland — A father's angry plea for justice marked the end Thursday of a monthlong coroner's inquest into the car bombing of Omagh, an atrocity that left 29 people dead, shattered a community and raised questions about the price of Northern Ireland's peace process.
Victor Barker, whose 12-year-old son, James, was killed in the 1998 attack, condemned the British government for failing to crack down on the Irish Republican Army dissidents responsible.
"I find it inexcusable that the government of Great Britain has only chosen to give us pieties about the hunt for the Omagh bombers and has singularly failed to deliver any form of justice to the innocent victims, especially the children whose lives and bodies were shattered.
The 500-pound car bomb blew up in the midst of a crowd of shoppers on Omagh's main shopping street. The 29 dead and more than 300 wounded — many of whom lost limbs, suffered extensive burns or were blinded — made it the bloodiest terrorist strike in Northern Irish history.
including that of James," Barker told an Omagh press conference.
In response, the governments of Britain and Ireland passed emergency legislation designed to make it easier to convict those suspected of planning and carrying out the Aug. 15, 1998, attack.
The dissidents, who oppose the IRA cease-fire of 1997 and have been dubbed the Real IRA by Irish media, are based mostly in border areas of the neighboring Irish Republic. Police believe they have identified most of those involved, based chiefly on telephone records that aren't admissible in court.

Students react to VP debate
By Kursten Phelps
writer.kanson.com
Kansen staff writer
The Kansas Union lobby wasn't overflowing last night, but some University of Kansas students still watched the vice-presidential debate between Republican Dick Cheney and Democrat Joseph Lieberman.
Although there were no large debate-watching events like Tuesday night's Pizza and Politics sponsored, by Student Union Activities, members of the College Republicans and KU Young Democrats gathered informally to see the two main vice-presidential candidates face off on the issues.
Chris Pavlack, Topeka freshman, was one of about 10 Young Democrats members who gathered to watch the debate. He said it might not have been as important as the presidential debates, but students should still pay attention.
"It's still very critical, because in case the president gets incapacitated, the vice president will be the person running the country," Pavlacka said. "As young people, we should make sure that the vice-
presidential candidates agree with what we believe in. I think more people should watch them. I think everyone in America should watch them."
Joe Walberg, College Republicans vice chairman and one of about 10 members of the group watching the event, said many people didn't watch the vice-presidential debate because they could assume the candidates were closely aligned with their running mates.
"Overall, I'd like to see people having more political interest as a general rule," said Walberg, Shawnee senior. "I don't think for college students it's as important to watch the vice-presidential debate as much as being aware of the political climate around them."
Gavin Smith, College Republicans chairman and Dallas sophomore, said he was impressed by the candidates' civility during the debate.
"The candidates definitely didn't waste a lot of time over petty things and bringing up each other's past," Smith said. "They discussed more what's coming up for the future. It was a very substantive debate, which is extremely important for college kids."
Julie Merz, Young Democrats president and St. Louis senior, said she thought Lieberman addressed several issues that would affect college students.
"I think the way Lieberman reinforced the message that his ticket is clearly the only pro-choice one was important," Merz said. "He also touched on environmental issues, which is an issue for students. Even though he didn't touch a lot on the college-loan program like Gore did the other night, I think he obviously showed their education-spending priorities."
Walberg, however, said that the issue of oil prices was one of the more important topics addressed by the candidates for college students, who are affected by gas-price increases.
"Gore and Lieberman have a very short-term focus on gas and fuel prices," Walberg said. "They want to open up the reserves, Bush and Cheney are both old oil men and know what they're doing. They have a very good long-term strategy, which is key for securing good oil prices now and in the future."

Cheney, Lieberman disagree civilly
The Associated Press
DANVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Republican Dick Cheney and Democrat Joseph Lieberman disagreed firmly but politely Thursday night about military readiness, tax cuts and the future of Social Security in a gentlymanly debate of campaign understudies.
In a debate that ranged broadly about campaign issues, Lieberman, a two-term Connecticut senator, said Republicans want to "raid the Medicare trust fund to pay for their tax cuts." But Cheney said there was more than enough money to go around, and it is "totally reasonable" to give relief to all taxpayers.
scheduled encounters.
The two men sparred as they sat together for their only debate of the fall campaign. The atmosphere on a specially constructed stage at Centre College was far more relaxed than Tuesday night when presidential candidates Al Gore and George W. Bush in met in Boston for the first of their three
But even good-natured comments reflected the widely differing views the two men hold about the role of government in the 21st century.
Pointing to a strong economy, Lieberman said most people would say they are better off than they were eight years ago. "I am pleased to see from the newspapers that you're better off than you were 8 years ago too," he said to Cheney, a reference to the multi-million dollar separation package the former oil services company executive received when he left to join the GOP ticket.
"And I can tell you, Joe, that the government had nothing to do with it," Cheney said — a remark that overlooked that his firm had received more than $2 billion in federal contracts for support of American troops on peace-keeping missions.
Asked by moderator Bernard Shaw about a public uprising in Yugoslavia designed to force out Milosevie.
Lieberman and Cheney both said they hoped he surrendered power, but ruled out the use of American troops. Lieberman said a U.S.-led bombing campaign last year had halted Milosevic's aggression.
When it came to defense readiness, Cheney said there has been an erosion during the eight years of the Clinton administration, and the Pentagon was "overcommitted and under-resourced."
Of five high school and college debate coaches who judged the debate for The Associated Press, three declared Lieberman the winner, one said Cheney won and the fifth scored it a draw but said, if pressed, he would judge Cheney the winner.
They judged the event on six criteria — reasoning, evidence, organization, refutation, cross examination and presentation — awarding from one to five points in each. On that basis, with 150 a perfect score, the five judges gave Lieberman a total of 130 points to 122 for Cheney.

Teaching by Sight

Limited hearing doesn't limit student-teacher in classroom
By Jason Krall writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
"Which U.S. track star retired his gold shoe at the Olympics?" student-teacher Beth Yoder asks a ninth-grade civics class at West Junior High School.
Nearly every hand shoots up.
Yoder points to a student at the back who has already collected a couple of candies from the reward dish.
"Michael Johnson," he answers.
The other students groan as Yoder smiles and gestures to the dish. It would be hard to tell for someone who walked into class at that moment, but Yoder is deaf.
The Lawrence senior will collect her degree in elementary education next spring. And despite her disability, she has excelled at something many educators with hearing impairments never attempt — teaching a mainstream class.
Carolyn Derusseau has watched Yoder lead the class's weekly current events trivia games for the past six weeks. She said Yoder was the first student-teacher with a hearing impairment she has worked with and that Yoder was better organized and more assertive than any student-teacher she's ever had.
"Of all the student-teachers I've had, Beth, more than anyone, sees what has to be done and does it," Derusseau said. "She manages the classroom so well. And I couldn't ask for anyone who was as hard a worker or more observant."
Yoder will leave the class next week and return to her classes on the KU campus.
Several ways of communicating
For Yoder, communication is a combination of lip reading,
sign language and asking people to write things down.
She wears a hearing aid that allows her to pick up some sound, although it does not allow her to hear clearly enough to understand by sound alone. Without it, she's unable to pick up anything other than someone screaming in her ear, she said.
Yoder's parents began to notice that she couldn't hear when she was 3 years old.
"When I was 3, I just stopped talking," said Yoder, who speaks with only a slight speech impediment. "They couldn't figure it out. It just happened. I hadn't been sick at all."
Doctors never identified a cause for her hearing loss, which has grown worse as she's gotten older, she said.
Soon after her parents discovered her hearing impairment, they enrolled her in lip reading and speech classes. She said it was easier to read the lips of people she knew than strangers.
And men with beards and mustaches are a real challenge.
But taking words in context helps, especially when she has trouble seeing the difference between certain sounds, such as Bs and Ms.
"They look exactly alike," she said. "But I know you probably said, 'Let's go to the mail,' not, 'Let's go to the ball.'"
Yoder has two sisters, 21 and 15, neither of whom have hearing disorders. But both can sign better than their parents, so the girls sometimes used sign language when they didn't want their parents to know what they were talking about.
Yoder said she was never teased about her hearing as a child. In elementary school, she wore an amplifying device that
required anyone who wanted to speak to her to use a special microphone. Her classmates often invited her to join them for group work because they liked to talk into the microphone.
One afternoon in the cafeteria at Lawrence High School, where she was a student, Yoder decided she had to start asking people to write things down for her when she didn't understand. A boy she didn't know came up to her and said something.

She couldn't read his lips.
He repeated it several times, and Yoder still couldn't understand him. Just as she was about to ask him to write it down, he gave up and walked away.
"It was a bad experience," she said. "I was upset because I wanted to know what he said. After that I started asking people, 'Please write it down.'"
Because many deaf people can read lips, Yoder said there was no reason to be afraid to approach deaf people and talk to them.
"I've had a lot of experiences where people don't come up to me because they are uncomfortable and they're not sure how to talk to me," she said. "They just need to remember to talk like they normally do. Don't overexaggerate your words."
M
Even if a deaf person has an interpreter nearby, talk to the deaf person, not the interpreter, she said. Yoder has an interpreter with her when she teaches, and sometimes students talk to the interpreter instead of her.
"People go up to the interpreter and say, 'Tell her that I need to borrow your book,' or whatever they need, and I'm standing right there able to understand them," she said.
Yoder has battled her difficulties in speaking and hearing with an army of instructors, speech therapists and interpreters. She said the different styles of interpreters she's worked with have changed the way she hears what is going on around her.
"I've had so many different interpreters," she said. "Some just interpret what the answers are in the class, others will interpret the conversation going on in class."
But she has had problems with teachers who didn't respect her need for an interpreter. On occasion, teachers asked her interpreter to go make copies or run errands during class.
A role model
Yoder plans to begin graduate school at the University next fall. After obtaining her master's degree in the education of deaf students, she hopes to teach at the Kansas School for the Deaf in Olathe, she said.
She said she decided she wanted to work with deaf students after serving as a counselor at a week-long camp for deaf children the past several summers. The summer camp, which was in St. Joseph, Mo., brings students from the Olathe school together with students at the Missouri School for the Deaf.
Mary Lynn Hamilton, director of education administration, and Yoder's academic advisor, said Yoder has worked hard to overcome her disability.
"She's very determined," Hamilton said. "She works hard to do the best she can, which is always fabulous."
Yoder said deaf students often got trapped into thinking they couldn't go on to college and lead successful lives. That's one of the reasons she's hoping to inspire students at the school in Olathe to set high goals and pursue them.
"I knew a deaf student in high school who said, 'My teacher said I wouldn't make it in college,'" she said.
But Yoder never doubted that she would obtain a college degree because her parents encouraged her early on. They've also helped her overcome her difficulties with speech.
"My parents have been very supportive in everything I've done," she said. "My mom always helped me by taking notes for me in church so that I could understand what the sermon was about."
Yoder said she hoped to visit one of her favorite ski spot this winter — Keystone or Copper Mountain, Colo. She plays pick-up volleyball and frequents an Olathe movie theater that offers screenings with closed-captioning.
Yoder said she was looking forward to the start of the KU basketball season. She can sense the energy inside Allen Fieldhouse the same as any other lifelong Jayhawks fan.
"I like the atmosphere there," she said. "I can hear and feel what's going on in the crowd."

POUND THE PUSSIES
Soccer team approaches home finale
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa
Kaisan sportswriter
This weekend's games at SuperTarget Field will be daily doubles for the Kansas women's soccer team — especially for the seven seniors on the team.
The first reason for the extra incentive to win is that winning those two conference matches-against Texas Tech at 4 p.m. today, and Colorado at 1 p.m. Sunday would bring Kansas closer to the Big 12 Conference tournament, for which the top eight finishers in the conference qualify.
Another reason is that victories would provide life-long memories for the senior Jayhawks, who will make their final appearances before a home crowd Sunday.
"It will be very emotional. I will think about all of the memories, both good and bad," senior defender Kyle Watts said. "My greatest memory is beating Missouri 1-0 at SuperTarget Field our sophomore year. I scored the goal on Haven's cross. We relive that moment all the time."
Senior forward Colleen Colvin also said this weekend would be emotional.
"It's the last time playing at SuperTarget Field and the last time we play in front of our fans. It's definitely going to mean something." Colvin said. "I'll miss playing at home, Kansas fans are best."
But as in the game show, Jeopardy!, scoring a daily double won't be easy for the Jiahwaks.

High noon for Hawks
The other seniors are defenders Johanna Larsson and Emma Di Cesare, midfielders Katie Lents and Meghann Haven and forward Lindsey Horner. The senior players will be recognized in a short presentation prior to the 1 p.m. kick off.
Texas Tech (4-8, 2-1 in the Big 12) is heading into the game after beating two conference foes — Oklahoma (2-1) and Oklahoma State (4-0) — last weekend. Junior goalkeeper Brittney Peese gave up only one goal during those two games and was the co-defensive player of the week in the Big 12.
Sunday's bee, Colorado (5-7, 1-3 in the Big 12), has beaten Kansas in each of the past two seasons. Senior forward Melissa Cartmell leads the Buffaloes with five goals and two assists.
"There'll be two tough games. The two teams have been playing well lately," Francis said. "I think (our) players are very excited this week end playing on own field again. After this, our next four conference games will be on the road. So it's going to be very important for us to make the most these two home opportunities."

o understand the Kansas-Kansas State showdown, think cowboys.
Dream about the wild west. Envision stare downs, gunslingers and riding off into sunsets. Imagine John Wayne and the Lone Ranger.
K-State can be John Wayne. Rough, durable and long-lasting. Kansas is the Lone Ranger. It's a recognized name, but the question for the Jayhawks in tomorrow's Sunflower Showdown is whether they will have enough horsepower.
The showdown between the Wildcats and Jayhawks tomorrow at 1 p.m. at Memorial Stadium will be no different than the showdown between the cowboy hero and the villain who rides into town to take the loot. In cowboy movies, the fights are about women or territory. In the Sunflower Showdow, the motive is the desire to be the top team in the state. The top cowbys want to be in your corral. The winner is the talk of the town at the local saloons.
"A lot of people already have the score set," said senior linebacker Dariss Lomax. "And we're down 200-0."
Think about the two coaches. Imagine them beginning back-to-back, anticipating the shootout about to happen. The theme
from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly"
starts.
They walk ten paces in the opposite direction before turning around. Kansas coach Terry Allen and K-State coach Bill Snyder would say something heard in those old westerns.
This place isn't big enough for the both of us ...
"I've always said that you can't have two ten-ten teams here." Allen said.
The simple fact is Kansas is not a hot bed for recruiting compared with California, Florida or Texas. Getting two premier teams in one state could be difficult. There is not enough talent in the area to feed both programs.
The obvious solution would be to recruit out-of-state. Both teams, of course, do this. But the number of football players make that concept tougher than usual. Kansas has as much reliance on Texas as George W. Bush — 32 players hall from the Lone Star State. The Jayhawks have 37 Kansans, but only four of those start. The Jayhawks also have tried to make inroads with Kansas junior college players.
"The numbers game in this state catches up with us." Allen said.
K-State has seven native Kansan starters. Snyder, however, said he was impressed with how Allen had strengthened in-state recruiting.
classes," Snyder said. "They have some guys over there we were very interested in."
The two teams have similar roster numbers, but this series has almost always been lopsided. The only exception to this rule came when the two teams both happened to be bad, which was common in the 1980s. And when one team has enjoyed national status, it usually has been at the other's expense. Five years ago, however, was glorious for both programs. Both teams were ranked in the top 15 when they met in 1995.
The 98th meeting tomorrow might not show what the total series proves. In the series, Kansas defeats the Wildcats by an average score of 18.7 to 12.1. The Jayhawks have won 61 times. But Kansas State has won the last two games by a combined score of 104-15.

Biases exemplify competitive spirit
Imagine my horror (well, at least my highly exaggerated facsimile of horror) when I recently learned that one of my colleagues was — gasp — a Pinko!
In Wednesday's letters to the editor, a hypervigilant reader revealed the liberal — perhaps even communist — conspiracy under way at the Kansan. In a sharply worded, callow bombast, the reader pointed out that the insidious liberal plague had spread all the way to the Kansan sports page.
Fellow sports columnist Seth Jones, it would seem, has taken to subverting the competitive nature of capitalism in the United States. The evidence?
When he wrote a column about the Kansas-Southern Illinois football game, Seth chose not to interview the football players. Instead, he focused on pregame parking lot activities and even went so far as to give a good-natured ribbing to some George W. Bush supporters. Thus, our reader asserts, Seth infused political and social distortion to his column and managed to eliminate themes of competition and aggression — which liberals like us here at the Kansan despise.
Call me naive, but I don't think that undermining the American way was Seth's intention. In fact, I think this is just another case of confusion about what it is that sports columnists should do.
Our quurulous reader, who purports to represent the majority of sports fans on campus, believes that our job should be to simply relay the their feelings and thoughts.
For example:
"We've just got to go out there and make plays ... take it one game at a time... come together as a team ... etc."
Here at the Kansan, we'd like to think that readers enjoy an alternative to the conventional sports platitudes. So our columnists try to find different, interesting angles on sporting events and personalities. Admittedly, we sometimes miss the mark completely. But on occasion, we provide insight, humor and maybe even a little wisdom (or at least a few new words to step up your vocab).
Another misconception often associated with sports columnists is that we should abide by the journalistic ethic of objectivity. On several occasions I've received emails (usually with subject headings such as "Your stupidity") which berate me for my obvious biases.
But here's the thing — sports columns are meant to have bias. They are meant to agitate. They are meant to provoke. That's part of the fun, and — I would argue — that's part of the competitive spirit of sports.
Well, I wouldn't want to let a whole column go by without at least one mention of actual sports (it might be misconstrued as un-American).
So check out this little tidbit: Despite the amazing tenure of Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder, the Wildkitties still have lost 158 more games than they're won in the history of the program. Next time some hick from Manhattan compares their football program to our basketball program, drop that one on him.
And to all my fellow travelers... um, I mean sports columnists — fight the power.
Friends to tangle in volleyball match

Danielle Geronymo really wants to play Texas.
A lot is at stake for the Kansas senior middle blocker when the Longhorns storm the court tomorrow night at Horejsi Family Athletic Center. Not only has the volleyball team failed its last three matches — fighting more than two hours before losing each heartbreaker — but it has fallen to ninth place in the Big 12 Conference standings. one place below the Longhorns.
And besides the team's sliding standings, Geronymo has a more personal wish to beat Texas; her best friend is Katia Lara, a junior outside hitter for the Longhorns.
She really wants this one. She wants to win
—big,
Geronomy and Lara have known each other for six years, meeting when Geronyo joined Lara's club team in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

"We won the championship of the state of
The pair played together as middle blockers in Brazil with aspirations of doubling up later for a career in professional beach volleyball. That was, until 1987, when Geronymy was scouted by coach Ray Bechard and given a scholarship to attend a school in the United States — Barton County Community College in Great Bend.
"We played together and even went to school together for two years," Lara said. "Then I didn't get to see her for another year because she came to the United States."
inneed, Lara began playing in junior high.
"I started playing early because all of my sisters played." Lara said. "I was 12."
That was until Lara received a call one day early in 1988 from her best friend.
"Coach Bechard said at the end of the season, 'Danielle, do you want to bring a friend from Brazil to play volleyball?'" Geronymy said. "So of course I called her."
Lara enrolled at Barton in 1986 and moved in with her best friend. Geronymo had decided
However, at the end of that 1998 season, Geronymo left Lara for Kansas and her former coach Bechard, and her two-year community college stay came to an end.
ed to stay at the community college rather than follow Bechard, who had been given a coaching job at Kansas that year, so she could play alongside Lara. During the '98 season, which Barton finished 66-4, Geronymo played middle blocker and Lara flanked her as an outside hitter. That year, the pair led the Cougars with .389 and .355 hitting efficiency, and Lara led with .361 kills per game and Geronomyo followed with 2.91.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 6). You're in love — or soon will bet You're lucky, too, so what will you make happen? Relax in the warm glow this October. Open your heart but keep your pocketbook closed in November. Suddenly you understand in February. Follow an old foreigner's advice to gain abundance in June. Your mom probably knows best in July, and your conscience is your guide in September.
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.
Instead of taking the lead, follow. Let your friends and a partner or mate teach you something. Ask questions but don't offer much of an opinion, yet.
Give yourself time to understand what they're talking about.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
Choose your words carefully, and you might profit. Something needs to be said, but something else shouldn't be mentioned. You might get good at walking that fine line, with a little practice. And now is as good a time as any.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
Travel will go better now than during the weekend. If you've planned a project, stock up on supplies. If you need to visit somebody, do that now, too. You may not have time later. Something unex pected could interfere.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) is 6'7"
A crowd might gather at your house. You and a loved one do like privacy, however. You may have to ask one guest to leave, or you won't get to sleep before morning. Let them know when it's time to go home.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
You're a leader, not a follower, most of the time.
A person with a different expertise can teach you something, though. You'll help the most today if you show you're a good team player. For once, let somebody else be the captain.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 7.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6.
There’s plenty of work and money. If it’s not head ed toward your pocket yet, you’re not in the right location. You’re loyal, but business is business.
Make sure you’re getting paid what you’re worth.
You've got a clear shot at your goals. Give somebody else a boost. A loved one's dream can inspire you to try something bold. It doesn't have to cost you much. A little thoughtfulness can light up another person's eyes.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
This is a good day to tidy up your closets and make your home look better. You may find something you forget about, and it will come in handy. You'll finally know why you've hung onto it for all these years!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
You're known to be honest and fair. Today, you could earn a new reputation. Your research could provide the answer everybody's sought. You could be seen as a great intellectual. And it's all true, of course.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
It'll be slightly easier to go along with an older person's silly whims. Knowing that it's Friday helps. You might even get a bonus for work done over and above the duty of duty. And, if so, it's a sure bet you've earned it!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.
You should feel confident and look great. You're attracting admirers from farther away than you realize. Romance is possible, and another dream could also come true. Dare to ask for what you want.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.
Irises (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.
Something you're after is slightly out of reach.
Don't worry. You still have a lot of preparation to do. Start by making lists and setting priorities. Work out the big problems on paper, and you'll be closer to getting there.

MEN'S BASKETBALL

One Kansas recruit heads to California-Berkeley while two recruits head to Lawrence as the recruiting battle heats up before the start of practices.
In-state recruits Jeff Hawkins, a 5-foot-11 guard from Kansas City, Kan. (KC-Sumner High School), and Jamar Howard, a 6-foot-4 guard from Shawnee (Bishop Miege) will visit Lawrence this weekend, although it is rumored that Kansas has not offered either player a scholarship.
Kansas recruits visit; one looks at California
The visits of Hawkins and Howard overlap with the recruitment of another Kansas prospect from California. Jamal Sampson, a 6-foot-11 center from Santa Ana, Calif., will be on the Cal-Berkley campus this weekend to look at the Bears' program.
Sampson said although Cal was one of his top choices, Kansas still remained in the hunt, and he said he wouldn't make a decision until after he visited Lawrence for Late Night with Roy Williams next Friday.
SENATE
Sampson also is interested in St. Louis, Virginia and — to a lesser extent — Connecticut, although Sampson is not very high on the Huskies, according to Sullivan.
Chuck Hayes, a 6-foot-6 forward from Modesto, Calif., said Kansas led the hunt for his services. Hayes also is considering Kentucky, St. Louis, Texas-E-Paso and Pepperdine, but the Jayhawks are the definite leaders.
Kansas had the chance to make an impact with another recruit last night. Josh Childress, a 6-foot-6 forward from Lakewood, Calif., had his in-home visit with the Jayhawks yesterday.
"I loved Kansas," Hayes told Insider's Report. "The academics, [coach Roy] Williams, the players, the support they have."
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be for entertainment purposes only.
Childress will be at the University
in one week for Late Night with Roy Williams.
The Kansas men's basketball team will offer walk-on tryouts starting at 10 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 15 in Allen Fieldhouse.
Any KU student interested in participating should stop by the men's basketball office at 250 Wagonn Student Athlete Center between Monday, Oct. 9 and Thursday, Oct. 12 to fill out paperwork.
Walk-on tryouts start a week from Sunday
Students also must bring proof of health insurance and proof of a physical exam taken within the past year.
Students can receive physical exams at Watkins Memorial Health Center.

Prime-time ratings for Olympics down
OLYMPICS
NEW YORK — The prime-time ratings weren't NBC's only problem during the Sydney Games. The Olympics weren't a hit during weekday mornings, weekend afternoons or late at night, either.

The network averaged a 5.6 rating Saturday and Sunday afternoons, plummeting more than 50 percent from Atlanta and 47 percent from the 1992 Barcelona Games.
The prime-time average for 17 days of Sydney telecasts, with all competition except 11/2 hours aired on tape, was a 13.8/24 — 36 percent lower than for Atlanta, 21 percent lower than for Seoul. That average was even further below what sponsors were promised, prompting the

NFL
St. Louis' offense won't slow down, coach says
ST. LOUIS — The NFL is about to find out if a week off can slow down the prolific St. Louis Rams' offense. Coach Mike Martz is confident the answer is no.
The Super Bowl champions entered their bye week on a record pace, averaging 43.4 points. The offense was nearly perfect in a 57-31 victory against the Chargers last week, scoring on their first 11 possessions and even getting a 5-for-5 game from kicker Jeff Wilkins. Their 614-yard output was second-highest in franchise history, trailing only their record 735-yard game against the Giants in 1951.
"I've never seen an offense like this," Chargers safety Rodney Harrison said. "I've never seen a team like this."
So Martz, who delivered on his promise to give the team a midseason vacation if they beat San Diego, isn't worried about a letdown when they return. The Rams meet the Falcons for the second time in their next game, Sunday, Oct. 15, at the Trans World Dome, where they've won a franchise-record 14 in a row.

AUSTIN, Texas - For 100 years, the Red River Shootout has been a border war, played during the hoopla of the Texas State Fair in a stadium evenly divided in Texas orange and Oklahoma crimson.
Home field advantage doesn't exist in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.
Depending on which team you root for, it's either Texas-Oklahoma or Oklahoma-Texas. The preferred team comes first. Always.
In its heyday, winning was considered key to recruiting the top high school talent. It could make or break a program's future.
But it's been a long while since the game meant much to anyone outside of Big 12 country. Saturday's matchup will be the first time since 1984 in which both teams are in the top 15, with Oklahoma (4-0)
Oklahoma (4-0)

and Texas (3-1,

threes 1900, before Texas was known as the Longhorns and Oklahoma was still called the Rough Riders. Texas leads the series 55-34 with five ties. Nine times, either Texas or Oklahoma has come in ranked No. 1 in the nation.
Texas cornerback Roderick Babers learned that last year when he played Oklahoma for the first time.
attention," said Texas coach Mack Brown. "And now that both programs are improving, I think it will be good to get it back on the national level."
Q
"When little old ladies are giving you the bird, that's when I knew there was some bad blood in this game," Babes said.
The fans, however, never wavered. The October game brings out their best, or perhaps their worst.
Fourteen years since he last laid out a Longhorn, Brian Bosworth still gets worked up about Texas.
Ask him about playing the Longhorns and the former Oklahoma All-America linebacker starts talking faster and louder.
"I lived and breathed that rivalry," said Bosworth, a Texan who crossed the Red River to play for the Sooners.
"It was good vs. evil ... And you know who was evil."
Never one to mince words — he once referred to the Longhorns' color as "puke orange" — Bosworth sounds like he's love one more game in the annual Red River Shootout.
His first came in 1984, when Texas was No.1 and Oklahoma No.1.
3 — a game that ranks as one of the oldest ever.
Texas had walloped Penn State 28-3 two weeks earlier, and Longhorns fans were talking national title.
Rain fell, players slipped and slid about on the field's artificial turf, and the teams combined for just 347 vards of total offense.
After Oklahoma took a safety to make it 15-12. Texas got the ball back with 2:10 left to play.
The Longhorns drove the length of the field looking for the winning touchdown. But after a pass into the end zone failed — Sooner fans insist to this day it was intercepted by Keith Stanberry — Jeff Ward kicked a 32-yard field goal in a downpour on the final play for the tie.
"I have never seen or heard a crowd like that. The end of the game was just surreal." Ward said. "Oklahoma fans were mad. Texas fans were mad. Everybody was shouting."
The tie didn't feel good in the Texas locker room either, Ward said, remembering the actions of coach Fred Akers.
"Akers jumped up on a bench and says, 'I don't like it either. If I could, I'd go out and meet them in the parking lot.' Ward recalled.
By playing favored Texas to a tie, the Sooners set the foundation for their great teams of 1985-1987 that won one national title and played for another.

Offense: Kansas has shown it can make plays. Dylan Smith had a career-high passing day in last week's 34-16 loss at Oklahoma. Problem is, he also accounted for five interceptions and two fumbles. The only way the Jayhawks have a chance is if Smith can keep the turnovers down, Kansas State brings a strong attack, led by quarterback Jonathan Beasley. Advantage: Kansas State.
Defense: So Kansas showed it can stop the pass against a real team — kind of. Sooners quarterback Josh Heupel threw for 346 yards, and Kansas coach Terry Allen has expressed concern that Kansas State will be more difficult because it mixes things up more. Advantage: Kansas State

K-State chasing national title
By Allan Davis
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas State, one win from the national championship game in 1998 and last year, rolls into tomorrow's Sunflower State Showdown at Memorial Stadium trying to stay undefeated, maintain its position in the polls, stay atop the league standings and keep the Governor's Cup.
The Wildcats (5-0, 1-0 in the Big 12 Conference) are ranked No. 4 in the nation and once again are contending for the national title.
K-State has been an offensive powerhouse in its first five games. The Wildcats lead the nation in team scoring offense, averaging 51.2 points a game. They are eighth in the nation in yards per game, averaging 473.
K-State can run and pass, averaging 236 yards rushing per game and 237 yards passing. But the Wildcats have run the ball 239 times in their five games while attempting only 111 passes.
Senior quarterback Jonathan Beasley, much-maligned in the past, ranks No. 1 in the nation in passing efficiency. Against Colorado, Beasley completed 15 of 25 passes for 293 yards and three touchdowns.
K-State averages more than 18 yards on its 65-pass completions, and senior wide receiver Quincy Morgan's seven touchdown receptions ties him for the national lead.
scoring defense, allowing only 9.6 points per game.
The Wildcats are dominant on defense as well. K-State is third in the nation in team total defense, allowing only 228 yards per game. The Wildcats are seventh in passing yards allowed one spot better than the Jayhawks, who are eighth. K-State is tied for seventh in team
They have also won their last seven games against Kansas by an average score of 37-10 and have won the last three times they came to Lawrence.
Notes: Wildcat Cliff Holloman, a senior defensive tackle, will be on the opposite side of the field from his younger brother, Jayhawk junior defensive end Ervin Holloman. However, Cliff Holloman said it wasn't really a special event.
"I just take it like it's another game." Cliff Holloman said. "Everything is intense anyway."
The Holloman brothers aren't the only ones having a reunion tomorrow. Jayhawk junior wide receiver Roger Ross, and Wildcat cornerback Dyshod Carter both attended the same high school, Thomas Jefferson in Denver.

Colorado, which has struggled through a challenging early season, will play another tough opponent tomorrow when it faces off with Texas A.M. Colorado's first four opponents have a combined record of 14-2, which is a big reason the Buffaloes are 0-4 and 0-1 in the Big 12.
Aggies quarterback Mark Farris has completed 64.6 percent of his 19 passes, the best in the Big 12. Running back Ja'Mar Toombs, a 275-pound junior, is averaging 10.5 points per game, sixth in the nation. The Aggies (3-1, 1-0) returned seven defensive starters, but injuries have taken their toll.
No. 2 Nebraska at Iowa State.
The Cornhuskers are third in the nation in total offense, averaging 486.8 yards per game. Nebraska fell to No.2 in the Associated Press poll after winning 42-24 against Missouri.
Nebraska (4-0, 1-0) will give Iowa State (4-0, 1-0) its toughest test so far this season. The Cyclones are averaging more than 400 yards per game in total offense.
Oklahoma State at Missouri
Missouri (1-3, 0-1) must rely on redshirt freshman quarterback Darius Outlaw to replace starter Kirk Farmer, who suffered a broken collar bone last Saturday against Nebraska.
The Cowboys (2-2, 0-1) are eighth in the nation and lead the Big 12 in rushing defense, giving up only 74 yards per game.
No. 10 Oklahoma vs. No. 11 Texas at Dallas
No. 10 Oklahoma (4-0, 1-0 in the Big 12 Conference) and No. 11 Texas (3-1, 1-0) both appear to be back on the path to becoming challengers for the national title. Oklahoma quarterback Josh Heupel and Longhorn quarterbacks Major Applewhite and Chris Simms can be expected to put on an entertaining passing show.
Baylor at Texas Tech
The Red Raiders (4-1, 0-1) have beaten the Bears four consecutive times. Baylor (2-2, 0-1) ranks 10th nationally in turnover margin with a +1.5 advantage.
Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury has thrown for 1,411 yards and a total of nine touchdowns in five games, with a completion percentage of 62.9.

Kansas football rivalry has departed from wild past
By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas versus Kansas State football game was once a bloodthirsty rivalry, but times have changed.
it began as a quiet match-up in 1902 between Kansas and what was then the Kansas State College of Agriculture. By 1936, the Kansas vs. K-State game had grown into a full-fledged war. Pranks ran rampant leading up to the big game. Seasons were determined solely on who won the Sunflower Showdown. Quite simply, fans cared.
The first game ended in a 16-4 Kansas win and had only five paragraphs of mention in the old *Kansas University Weekly*. The game took almost 20 years to grow on fans.
The rivarly picked up steam in the '20s when Kansas students sheared livestock in Manhattan. The '40s and '50s brought more pranks, but the rivalry was just heating up.

In 1971, 13 students snuck to Manhattan
"It it used to be a lot different back then from today," said Robert Foster, director of bands and former director of the Marching Jayhawks. "It's because they've had more success than before. They learned how to win."
and struck K-Hill, a hill bearing a giant KS. The students blotted the "S" and changed it to a "U" so the hill read KU. It was repeated in 1976.

SAYS!
POUND
THE PUSSIES
Repeated in 15-16.
Two weeks later, four students flew over the K-State campus and dropped 150 pairs of red and white underwear.
Things got ugly in 1982. The Kansas band was pelted with bottles, grapefruits, tennis balls and oranges during K-State's 36-7 win. The band had instruments damaged and members injured.
"We used to literally get students hurt down there," Foster said. "We've had equipment damaged and stolen, and we've had to hold six buses while some of our kids had to go to the emergency room."
Problems continued in 1984 and 1986 with riots in Manhattan's Aggieville after K-State home victories. Police arrested 24 people, and 26 went to the hospital in '84.
More vandalism occurred in the '90s, when 11 K-State students were caught trying to paint the Kansas Union purple in '94. In '98, K-State fans spray-painted messages on the sidewalk at Memorial Stadium.
"There's less vandalism now than there used to be." Foster said.
There's been an absence of pranks following seven straight Kansas losses, except for the purple dye, which is added to the Chi
Omega fountain annually. Kansas hasn't had a winning season since 1995, while K-State has emerged to be among the nation's best. Kansas leads the series 61-31-5 but has been slaughtered — by a combined score of
152-31 — in the last three meetings. The one-sidedness has taken its toll.
K-State junior Brian Karlin said the mystique surrounding the game had been absent from Manhattan this week.

"There hasn't been much talk of the game," Karlin said. "People have talked about Oklahoma for next week and a little about Nebraska."
He said the pranks had been missing for a reason — students had changed.
"I don't know whether the rivalry has died out or if legal action has gotten in the way. Down here, police have cracked down a lot," Karlin said. "This is also a different time period. Kids are a lot more mellow and apathetic."

Friends put positive spin on volleyball match-up
Continued from page 1B
1999-2000 school year. In fact, the last time the two met was this August when Lara visited Kansas on a recruiting trip.
"When she came this summer we stayed up the entire night talking until three in the morning," Geronymo said. "I was like, Katia, I have to go to sleep! I've got volleyball camp tomorrow, but we stayed up because it's just so nice to talk in person."
However, talking in person became a lot harder when, just after Lara's summer visit, she chose to don the burnt orange of the Longhorns rather than Jawhawk crimson and blue.
"I don't like cold weather, and Kansas is cold," Lara said. "Even though every time I hear about Kansas I get really excited. It's like my second home."
Although Geronymo admitted she was upset Lara passed up Lawrence for Austin, she said she didn't want her friend to be unhappy just so they could be together.
"She didn't want to stay in Kansas anymore," Geronymo said. "And I just want to see her happy."
That is, except if her grin comes from a Texas win Saturday night, and Lara feels the same way.
"On the court, she'll be the person I hate the most, but that's just because I know her," Lara said, laughing. "After the game we'll be friends again."
And obviously, Lara and Geronymo won't be the only ones fighting for a win tomorrow.
"Texas is a team with a lot of history. I'm not sure if we've ever beat them," said Bechard, whose Jayhawks are 0-11 all-time against the Longhorns. "We've got to go out there and take a game from somebody."

Friends put positive spin on volleyball match-up
Continued from page 1B
1999-2000 school year. In fact, the last time the two met was this August when Lara visited Kansas on a recruiting trip.
"When she came this summer we stayed up the entire night talking until three in the morning," Geronymo said. "I was like, Katia, I have to go to sleep! I've got volleyball camp tomorrow,' but we stayed up because it's just so nice to talk in person."
However, talking in person became a lot harder when, just after Lara's summer visit, she chose to don the burnt orange of the Longhorns rather than Javhawk crimson and blue.
"I don't like cold weather, and Kansas is cold," Lara said. "Even though every time I hear about Kansas I get really excited. It's like my second home."
Although Geronymo admitted she was upset Lara passed up Lawrence for Austin, she said she didn't want her friend to be unhappy just so they could be together.
"She didn't want to stay in Kansas anymore," Geronymo said. "And I just want to see her happy."
That is, except if her grin comes from a Texas win Saturday night, and Lara feels the same way.
"On the court, she'll be the person I hate the most, but that's just because I know her," Lara said, laughing. "After the game we'll be friends again."
And obviously, Lara and Geronymon won't be the only ones fighting for a win tomorrow.
"Texas is a team with a lot of history. I'm not sure if we've ever beat them," said Bechard, whose Jayhawks are 0-11 all-time against the Longhorns. "We've got to go out there and take a game from somebody."

Web domains could include .kids, .sex
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — As the Internet becomes increasingly clogged, Web users digging for family friendly sites might one day be able to type kids instead of .com. More lurid material, on the other hand, might be found after a search of the suffix .sex or .xxx.
The new dot addresses could be in use early next year. The organization handling the expansion expects to announce the list of new suffixes by Nov. 20, marking the first major growth in more than a decade.
Adding suffixes to the Internet is akin to adding area codes to the national phone system to accommodate the growing number of customers.
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, selected by the federal government in 1998 to handle address policy for the Web, said Tuesday that it has accepted 47 proposals for new domain-name suffixes. The bidding process ended Monday.
Anyone can register a name ending in com, net, or org if it is not already in use. Four other suffixes are reserved for specific groups, such as edu for educational institutions. There are 244 regional suffixes, such as fr. for France.
Internet registration companies had to pay a nonrefundable $50,000 application fee, which they would, in theory, recoup through fees charged to register Web sites with the new suffixes.
Nineteen companies, including Internet registration leader Network Solutions Inc., submitted a plan for three new suffixes, .info, .site and .web, as global alternatives to .com, .net and .org.
Other plans proposed splitting the Internet into separate channels for kids, businesses and nonprofit groups.
Register.com and Virtual Internet submitted a joint bid to create .pro for professionals. Physician John Doe, for example, could register as johndoe.med.pro. If John Doe were a lawyer, he could register as johndoe.law.pro.
Under that proposal, doctors, lawyers and accountants, for example, would have to prove their professional status to win .pro registration. Existing .com, .net and .org addresses do not require that documentation.
Four companies separately proposed a_kids extension. The _sex and _xxx suffixes were in a number of bids.
War on drugs chronicled
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — After three decades, the war on drugs is largely a bust.
That's one finding of Drug Wars, an epic exploration into the United States government's battle to stem the flow of illegal drugs.
Examinations of the drug problem are usually framed from the perspective of the users or the cops who bust them on the street.
The four-hour Frontline report, which PBS airs Monday and Tuesday at 8 p.m., lets viewers hear from high-level government officials, traffickers, drug agents and drug lords — including men who once headed Colombia's notorious Medellin cartel, which the
film identifies as the world's largest ever criminal syndicate.
Drug Wars takes an inside look at the drug business, including footage of the ambush of an entire division of Mexico's federal drug police by a unit of the Mexican army protecting a drug operation.
The U.S. prison population has doubled since 1994 to nearly 2 million inmates - half of whom are jailed on drug-related charges. Meanwhile, the global narcotics business is worth an estimated $400 billion, and rapidly expanding.
"Have we really looked this situation straight in the face," Bergman muses, "where we can figure out what to do?"

Life, television blurs in Ray Romano sitcom
BURBANK, Calif. — Ray Romano, comedian, family man and acid coeler has a twain in his back.
Driving a golf cart from his office to the set, Romano, 42, reflects on the slow journey to full-fledged success.
The Associated Press
"What happened at the Emmys is just perfect for me," he says, "because I need, especially as like a comic, to be recognized, which I think I was there. But I also need to be a loser. To have both those things going on at the same time."
Listening to his riff, you feel certain that his mother or his wife will pop up, as they do in the sitcom, and nag him about his attitude. Even in the face of fame, Romano believes in the value of self-deprecation and doubt.
The aptness of the show's title is apparent to cast and crew, who suggest various remedies for his pain.
"We thought we were going to be canceled, and then no one was watching, and then a couple of people were watching, and then more, and then we didn't get nominated (for an Emmy), and then we got nominated and nobody won, and now we got nominated and one person won, but we still feel like we are fighting against not enough notoriety."
Ray Barone, sportswriter and family man, feels that twinge as he bends down to look under the couch in search of a missing hamster.
Audiences also seem to love Raymond. The sitcom about the pressures of close family ties is now in its fifth season on CBS, airing Mondays at 8 p.m. Nominated for nine Emmys this year, including an acting nod for Romano, it received a best comedy actress win for Patricia Heaton, who plays Raymond's long-suffering wife Debra.
"I want to keep it real, keep it organic, but little by little. Ray Barone is becoming his own freak. We originally had a contest of who was stupider, Ray Romano or Ray Barone. Ray Barone is winning now," the comedian says, his slightly foovy "huh huh" laugh serving as punctuation.
Will that little ache show up on-screen? Maybe, if it adds to the humor. Probably not, if it doesn't.
The fine line between the real Ray and the character he plays has often been so blurry as to confuse even Romano.
Romano had tweaked a muscle hitting a bucket of golf balls before coming to work this morning at Warner Bros. studios, where his sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond is filmed.

Pitching woes sink Braves' playoff hopes
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Another of the Atlanta Braves' golden arms left Busch Stadium badly tarnished, putting the St. Louis Cardinals within one win of the National League championship series.
Tom Glavine was pounded for seven
his shortest outing in
seven years — and
the Cardinals beat the
Braves 10-4
Thursday, taking a 2-
0 lead in their best-of-
five NL playoff
series.
Will Clark overcame a 20, first-inning deficit with a three-run homer, and Mark McGwire, limited to one at-bat per game because of knee pain, limped out of the Cardinals dugout in the eight to hit a pinch homer against Mike Remlinger.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
Darryl Kile limited Atlanta to two runs and four hits in seven innings, striking out six and walking two.
The reeling Braves, in danger of failing to make the NL championship series for the first time since 1990, head home hoping Kevin Millwood (10-13) can win
Game 3 on Saturday at Turner Field. Garrett Stephenson (16-9) is likely to start for the Cardinals.
St. Louis essentially is in the same position it was in 1986, when it took a 3-1 lead against Atlanta in the best-of-seven NLCS, then lost three straight.
After Clark's three-run homer started the comeback, Carlos Hernandez had a solo shot in the second and St. Louis added three runs in the third on Ray Lankford's two-run double and Eric Davis' sacrifice fly.
Atlanta's top pitchers, Greg Maddux and Glavine, who have combined for six NL Cy Young Awards, have given up 12 earned runs in 61-3 innings, a 17.05 ERA.

Mets edge Giants, NL series tied 1-1
The Associated Press
AN FRANCISCO
SAN FRANCISCO
Armando Benitez turned toward the foul pole and waited. When he saw J.T. Snow's homer curl into the right-field bleachers, his body sagged. It was a sinking feeling he has known many times before.
The New York Mets' closer came into last night's playoff game against the San Francisco Giants with a 4-1 lead, and needed just three outs to get a save and finish off a magnificent pitching job by Al Leiter.
Instead, Benitez once again blew it — allowing a three-run pinch homer by Snow that sent the game into extra innings.
The Mets got a run in the 10th to defeat the Giants 5-4 and tie their best-of-five NL division series at 1-1, but that did not erase the pain for the Mets' closer — who had 41 saves this season.
Benitez had been through
such troubles before.
As a member of the Baltimore Orioles in 1997, he allowed a three-run homer by Cleveland's Marquis Grissom in the eighth inning of Game 2 of the American League championship series that gave the Indians a 5-4 victory.
That was the first of three game-deciding hits allowed by Benitez during that series, which the Orioles lost. One of those was a game-winning homer by Tony Fernandez that broke up a scoreless tie in the 11th inning of the series finale.
And in 1996, Benitez allowed one of the most infamous homers of the '90s. He was on the mound for the Orioles in the AL championship series against the Yankees when young New York fan Jeffrey Maier reached over the outfield fence to grab a ball hit by Derek Jeter — giving the Yankees a key homer.

Fair-weather Kansas State fans forget past |'Cats the beginning of Jayhawks' demise
The Sunflower Showdown is here, and so are unfamiliar faces in the Collegian and Kansan with the yearly "column swapping."
Too many columnists before me have reached into the bag of Jayhawk and Wildcat stereotypes to dog the opposing school, but I'll not travel down that beaten path. With that in mind, you won't see any Silo Tech versus Snob Hill, or Wranglers against Abercrombie and Fitch. K-State fans also won't be reminded to purchase tickets for next summer's Inbreed Stampede —er, Country Stampede — near Manhattan. I won't even tell Wildcat fans that chewing tobacco in Memorial Stadium is frowned upon. That goes for you, too, cheerleaders. And why not write about the
Instead, why not write about the obvious — football.
Once again, the Wildcats are potential national-title game participants, while the Jayhawks aren't. But before K-State fans assume another easy victory and make a toast with some Natural Light, perhaps they should pay attention.
Kansas went to Oklahoma last weekend and should have defeated the Sooners, but continuous turnovers didn't help the Jayhawks' cause. Oklahoma joined K-State in the Top 10 Sunday and could end up in the Big 12 Conference title game against Nebraska.
The Jayhawks also played better on the road, a place that hasn't been kind to the 'Hawks lately.
Kansan sports columnist
Shawn
Linenberger
arts@kansan.com
Memorial Stadium has been, and that happens to be the venue for tomorrow's Sunflower Showdown.
Yes, K-State has owned Kansas the last few years, but they sure don't have the stranglehold Nebraska has enjoyed for pretty much 30 years on both the 'Hawks and the 'Cats.
And let's not forget the past. Many Wildcats who have proclaimed they bled purple in the fall seasons during the '80s probably don't even remember Wildcat quarterback Jason Smarglasso spending most of the 1992 Sunflower Showdown on his back. Kansas won 31-7, and K-State registered negative yards rushing.
The past is just that, but it's reassuring to know that Kansas still leads the series 61-31-5. Well, somewhat reassuring. Losing seven straight to K-State isn't such a grand feeling, especially when K-State's bandwagon gained a large number of passengers.
K-State's slogan is "Everyone a Wildcat." Well, when K-State is playing well, of course everybody's going to be a Wildcat. The life of a K-State football fan is pretty much fair weather, especially in January. I wonder how many K-State fans still have "I'm a Stan Fan" buttons for
Bill Snyder's predecessor, Stan Parrish. Yeah, that's what I thought. Most K-State fans didn't know college football existed until 1993.
Most Wildcat players and fans probably don't consider the Jayhawks rivals right now, but beating Nebraska once at Manhattan two years ago doesn't really constitute a rivalry, either. K-State beating Nebraska was great for Wildcat fans, but for now, K-State should label Nebraska as its most-hated opponent.
But back to Wildcats and Jayhawks, here's your rundown for Saturday's game:
K-State breezed through their schedule thus far, and what team wouldn't. The Jayhawks haven't. Advantage: K-State. The Wildcats haven't lost to Kansas since Papa Bush was President. Advantage: K-State. The game is at Memorial Stadium, not the stadium next to the mistake known as Bramlage Coliseum. Advantage: Kansas. The Jayhawks have played a Top 15 team; the Wildcats tussled with No. 112. Advantage: Kansas.
When the smoke clears, the winner will be Kansas, 31-17. There you have it.
And just think: All you Wildcat fans making the trip to Lawrence this weekend will get a great chance to do some shopping at Abercrombie and Fitch.
Linenberger is a Washington, Kan., senior in journalism.
"Rivalry" is often the first term that comes to mind when thinking of a grueling Sunflower Showdown between K-State and Kansas. At least it used to be.
In fact, this Saturday's football game in Lawrence is far from it. Break out the feather pillows and a good book (for those Jayhawks who can read) — this weekend's gonna be a snooder.
Keep in mind, it's not the fourth-ranked Wildcats' fault there won't be a worthwhile game to watch. Kansas is really just that bad.
So far, the 'Hawks season is highlighted by a 42-0 win against Div. I-AA Southern Illinois and a 23-20 squeaker against Alabama-Birmingham (a real title contender), while losing their opener by two touchdowns to Southern Methodist and getting downed 34-16 by Oklahoma last weekend. Rock chalk Jayhawk, baby — that's an impressive start.
Now, I already can hear the rebuttal from the crimson and blue. "KState has the weakest non-conference schedule in college football," they claim. Maybe there is some truth in that assertion. I'll admit Iowa, Louisiana Tech, Ball State and North Texas are far from college football powerhouses, but at least we can win the weaker games on our schedule, unlike the boys down Interstate 70.
Regardless, just looking at K-State's win last weekend should silence critics. The Wildcats went into Colorado's house, the legendary Folsm Field, and dominated the Buffaloes 44-21. Enough said.
Kansas State Collegian sports columnist
Derek Boss
dsnb8765@ksu.edu
At the Burabas, What was that? Did I just hear somebody in Lawrence try to downplay that victory, too? No. I didn't personally hear anything, but I'm willing to bet somebody over there is saying, "Man, Colorado hasn't won a game yet."
Granted, the Buffalofoes are 0-4, but three of those losses came to Top 10 opponents, namely USC, Washington and K-State. It's unfair to judge a program's record with such a difficult schedule to open the season. Besides, I'll put down money that come Saturday, Oct. 21, the Jayhawks will be crying when they get stomped by the Buffers.
In fact, there'll be a whole lot of crying in Lawrence this season. After Lawrence's precious 'Hawks get decimated by K-State for the eighth straight year Saturday ('I'm predicting something along the lines of 55-6), I'm willing to bet that Kansas doesn't win a game the rest of the season.
At Missouri — The Tigers gave Nebraska a scare last week, so a win against the 'Hawks on their home field won't be much of a problem.
Just look at their schedule:
Colorado - As I already said,
Buffs win big.
Texas Tech—Possibly the Jayhawks' best chance at a win. The Red Raiders didn't look too impressive against Texas &M in their last outing, but Tech should prevail in a tight game.
At Nebraska — Not many win at Memorial Stadium, and the 'Hawks will be no exception. They shouldn't even expect to score on the Big Red. Texas — Kansas will have a Major problem, and his name is Applewhite.
At Iowa State — The Cyclones are playing some of their best football in years, starting the 2000 season with a 4-0 record. They'll get their first loss this weekend versus Nebraska, but their regular season finale with the 'Hawks should determine whether they get a bowl berth. In other words, put your money on Iowa State.
So there you have it, Kansas fans — I'll pause and give you a moment to grab a Kleenex; I know it must be hard to face the truth — your season is basically finished.
At any rate, there is one single element of interest in this weekend's ball game. I'm curious to see if the 'Hawks really do bleed crimson and blue.
Never mind. I guess I could just ask Zac Wegner.

Natural gas prices on the rise
By Meghan Bainum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Increasing natural gas prices are going to hit KU students where it hurts — in the pocketbook.
According to figures from the Energy Information Association, gas prices are expected to increase 29.5 percent from last year. Natural gas cost $6.61 per mil

casting for the EIA, said there was nothing that could be done about higher prices.
"It's just going to cost you more money to heat this winter," he said. "And that's something you really should be thinking about right now."
Students like Brian Adams, Overland Park senior, haven't figured out how to pay for the rising cost.
"We can't afford that, so most likely we
would do something—take different measures," he said. "We'll use space heaters or sleep at other people's houses."
The only thing they could do to keep the house at a comfortable temperature was to overheat, something that Adams said they couldn't afford to do — even when natural gas prices weren't as high.
But Adams said heating the Vermont Street house he and his three roommates lived in was always expensive. He said the house was old and didn't have insulation.
"We can't keep it warm enough." he said. When we work on our computers our hands get numb.
Kendell said the reason for the increase was that the amount of stored gas available was unusually low. He said that while this winter's prices would be high, prices should come down after the next heating season has passed.
"We're not running out of oil and gas," he said. "We're running out of people's willingness to pay for it."
Kendall said the biggest cost-savers were to set back thermostats, which could be set
Although gas prices will be higher, he said students could maximize the efficiency of their furnaces and save money.
WAYS TO SAVE MONEY
To minimize natural gas prices, students should:
- Get furnace checked and tuned by a professional.
- Install a setback thermostat to regulate temperature.
- Keep the thermostat set at 68 degrees.
- Close storm windows tightly. If the house does not have storm windows, put plastic across the windows.
Purchase a 90 percent-efficient furnace.

to run at a lower temperature during the day and at night when students aren't in the house. Caulking cracks in houses, keeping storm windows closed and making sure gas heaters are running properly will also help keep costs down.
Randy Ortiz, president of Advantage Heating & Air Conditioning, 406 N. Seventh St., recommended yearly furnace service. He said it was dangerous for students to service their furnaces by themselves.
Natural gas price increase
"If you clean your furnace annually, you can get a better burning efficiency rate."
Experts predict nearly a 30 percent increase in the price of natural gas in parts per million this winter. This means increased costs — and decreased comfort — for KU students living in apartments and older houses.

Carbon monoxide found in many homes
By Melissa Davis
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
What you don't know might kill you.
Jill Thummel, Overland Park senior, bought a carbon monoxide detector last year, just to be safe, and was surprised when it started going off.
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, poisonous gas that many people don't realize is leaking into their homes. And if it goes undetected, it could have deadly consequences.
"I plugged it in, not thinking it was a big deal, then it went crazy by the furnace," she said.
Thummel called a gas company, and a serviceman came out the next day and confirmed through a test that her apartment had a carbon monoxide leak.
Randall Ortiz, president of Advantage Heating & Air Conditioning, 406 N. Seventh St., said he offered the landlords of apartment complexes in Lawrence free carbon monoxide tests. But only one responded. Ortiz said he thought this was a sign that many landlords didn't care about the safety of their tenants — especially students.
"I think a lot of the landlords don't care about students, they just want their money," Ortiz said. "It's going to take a death to make an ordinance so people will take this seriously."
Ortiz suggested students buy digital carbon mon

"Of the apartment complexes we have looked at, at least 20 percent of them have had carbon monoxid
CARBON MONOXIDE FACTS
- Carbon monoxide is a byproduct combustion formed by incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels such as oil, propane, natural gas and wood.
Carbon monoxide is produced when there is not enough oxygen mixed with fuel.
When carbon monoxide is inhaled, it is absorbed into the bloodstream, taking the place of oxygen in the blood cells.

ide leaks," he said. "That is an incredibly high amount. Everyone should get a test because you can die within a matter of seconds."
Patty Dunn, registered nurse at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said symptoms of the poisonous gas were flu-like but could have fatal outcomes. She said carbon monoxide gas was dangerous because it prevented the blood from carrying oxygen to muscles and the brain.
Dunn also said she didn't think Watkins had ever seen a patient because of the gas, but suggested students educate themselves about the poisonous gas. "If a person becomes unconscious they could die," Dunn said. "Or if a patient recovers there could be nervous system involvement like blindness, spasms, or twitching."

Student denies sexual battery charges, faces upcoming trial
By Rob Pazell
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Kevin J. Hoskinson will stand trial in December for a crime he says he didn't commit — and the victim's not so sure Hoskinson's the right guy either.
But KU Public Safety Officers arrested the 22-year-old Garden City junior in September, accusing him of kissing and fondling a female KU student as she slept in the sixth-floor lobby of Hashinger Hall.
Hoskinson is charged with one misdemeanor count of sexual battery.
The victim, who wished to remain unnamed, said she and five other residents were asleep in the lobby early Aug. 26. She said a male friend who had a build similar to the suspect's had been sleeping next to her — so she didn't suspect any trouble when, in the groggy stage of wakefulness, she saw a man beside her.
But she woke up when the man pulled her on top of him, kissed her and touched her breasts.
"The guy said, 'It's okay, it's ok', but I jumped up, grabbed my keys and ran into my room," she said. "My roommate went out to check, and he was gone."
The victim said she never got a good look at her attacker. However, she provided enough details to the public safety office for them to sketch a composite drawing of the suspect.
Hoskinson said he was asleep in his room when the attack took place. He said he didn't even know about the battery until he saw the Crimestoppers alert the following week. He was caught off guard when officers showed up at his fifth-floor room in Hashinger to arrest him.
"I was in my room doing my homework when the cops came," he said in an interview four days after his arrest. "They had a warrant, and they arrested me, but it really didn't look like a warrant to me."
Sgt. Troy Mailen said tips from informants who recognized the composite drawing of the suspect led to the arrest. Hoskinson was ejected from Hashinger a week later.
The victim said police had kept in close contact with her immediately after the attack, but once Hoskinson was arrested, contact tapered off. She said friends had pointed out Hoskinson as the man

Israel insists fighting end; peace talks in jeopardy
By Lori O'Otole editor@kansan.com

Israel yesterday pressed its ultimatum to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat: order an end to the violence within a day or the peace talks are over.
But Abdullah Alshamrani, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, freshman, doesn't think the ultimatum will bring peace.

be enetered, he said. I don't imam that it's going to be ended soon. I think it will be later, but I don't know when later is. They can live peacefully with each other, 'but they ignore humane relationships and just fight each other."

"They have been talking for very long that it's going to

human.
In Jerusalem, Israelis settled down to fast through Yom Kippur wondering whether their Day of Atonement, which ends at sundown today, would carry echoes of the same terrifying day 27 years ago when a surprise Arab attack launched a Mideast war.
The days of rage that have consumed Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip since Sept. 28 have spread elsewhere: Israel was building up its forces on its northern border after Lebanese guerrillas seized three Israeli soldiers, shattering the calm that has prevailed there since Israel withdrew from Lebanon in May.
The Iranian-backed Hezbollah militia dedicated Saturday's operation to the Palestinians who have
died in the recent clashes. The fighting has claimed 82 lives so far, most Palestinian.
Sue Shafer-Landau, Hillel adviser, said the conflict involved a struggle for power and autonomy and that both Jews and Muslims valued Jerusalem.
Barak's Cabinet secretary, Yitzhak Herzog, said Clinton had invited the sides to a summit tomorrow. U.S. officials said they knew of no such invitation.
"It's the holiest spot for both people," Shafer-Landau said. "They need to realize this is an incredibly important spot for Jews as well as for Muslims."
In one conciliatory sign, senior Israeli and Palestinian officers met under U.S. auspices in the Gaza Strip and agreed to coordinate security issues — restoring a degree of the cooperation that existed before the violence began.
President Clinton scrambled to prevent the crisis from escalating, calling Israel Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Arafat throughout the day.

Israeli soldiers yesterday found the body of Americanborn Rabbit Hillel Lieberman, in a cave near West Bank. The victim could be a distant cousin of Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Sen.

Female student reports early morning rape
A 19-year-old female KU student reported being raped at 3:32 a.m. Thursday at a friend's apartment, Lawrence police said.
Det. M.T. Brown said the female student had called a male KU student to go to a bar earlier in the evening. Both met friends and drank alcohol. After the last call for alcohol, the two left and returned to the man's apartment.
Brown said the woman asked if she could stay at the apartment because she could not drive, and the man agreed. The man gave her clothes to wear after she became sick, and they both went to bed in his bed.
The man then touched the woman and attempted to penetrate her vagina with his penis, Brown said. She pushed him away, ran down the hall, grabbed her purse and ran out of the apartment. She then called friends and the police from her cell phone.
No charges have been filed yet in the case, which is being reviewed by Douglas County District Attorney Christine Tonkovich.

New toll plaza opens to provide for racetrack
BONNER SPRINGS — The Kansas Turnpike Authority has closed the Bonner Springs toll plaza and opened a new one eight miles to the west.
Lisa Callahan, director of public relations for the Kansas Turnpike Authority, said the authority built the new toll plaza because of the Kansas Speedway racetrack and the large volume of traffic it is expected to attract.
The racetrack, which is under construction near the intersection of Interstate 435 and Interstate 70 in western Wyandotte County, will have its first races next year.
The new toll plaza opened Wednesday. Callahan said crews would be dismantling the old toll booths for the rest of the year.
The new $8.5 million toll坡 has six exit lanes instead of five, and three entry lanes instead of two. There is one designated K-Tag lane in each direction for electronic toll collection.
"We have routed traffic around the old toll plaza while crews are doing the work," she said. "They will be trying to remove them as quickly as possible."

Shuttle cleared for liftoff after fuel tank repairs
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — After an intense weekend of repairs and
reviews, NASA cleared space shuttle Discovery for tonight's liftoff on a space station construction mission, but gusty wind threatened to push the launch later into the week.
Meteorologist John Weems said there was a 70 percent chance that stiff crosswinds would prevent Discovery from taking off on NASA's 100th space shuttle mission on Monday and Tuesday.
Discovery was supposed to depart for the international space station last Thursday, but was grounded by concerns over bolts on the external fuel tank. In addition, a sluggish valve in the shuttle's engine compartment had to be replaced.
Shuttle managers wrapped up the bolt issue yesterday and declared Discovery safe to fly.
The main concern last week was that a protruding bolt could put a spin on the 153-foot, rust-colored tank and cause the tank to slam into the space shuttle. Such a collision could be catastrophic.
Police corruption trial may set legal standard
LOS ANGELES — The first trial in the city's largest police scandal may determine more than the fate of the four policemen charged with framing gang members for crimes they didn't commit.
Legal observers say the chances of convictions are slim. And acquittals could make prosecutors reluctant to bring more corruption cases to trial, intensifying already solid public cynicism about whether police officers are immune from the justice system.
The defendants are four veteran policemen — 'Sgt. Edward Ortiz, Sgt. Brian Liddy and officers Paul Harper and Michael Buchanan — who are accused of planting evidence, filing false police reports and committing perjury in order to frame gang members. In one instance, a gun was allegedly planted. In another, a reputedly false report alleged assault on police officers.
Neutral ocean conditions limit forecast accuracy
LOS ANGELES — Floods in Southern California? Blame it on El Nino. Drought from the Great Plains to the Southeast? Sounds like La Nina. Nervous climate forecasters? Must be "La Nada."
For the first time in three years, the tropical Pacific Ocean isn't running unusually hot or cold, and the neutral conditions are leaving climatologists with fewer pieces of the puzzle. Gone are the days of confident predictions months into the future.
That means the effects of relatively small forces such as the moisture of an individual storm could determine whether an area is wetter or drier or warmer or cooler than usual.
Forecasters are having to focus on historical records and weaker signals

two more earthquakes shake western Japan
TOKYO — Two fairly strong earthquake rocked western Japan yesterday, two days after a more powerful quake buckled streets, knocked down houses and paralyzed traffic for hours in a nearby region.
A magnitude 5.4 earthquake struck yesterday afternoon and was centered six miles beneath eastern Shimane prefecture, located 380 miles southwest of Tokyo, the Meteorological Agency said.
About eight hours later, a 5.2-magnitude quake hit at about the same location, the agency said. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
Though at least 120 people were hurt in Friday's quake, none of the injuries were reported to be life-threatening. Main transportation routes were almost fully restored to the area by Saturday evening. Of the 2,000 homes damaged, only 2 completely destroyed.
Of the 2,000 homes damaged, only two were completely destroyed, Shimane police said.

Anti-demonstration law prompts mass protest
HONG KONG — Daring the police to arrest them, more than 1,000 people marched Sunday to protest a law that prohibits public demonstrations by more than 30 people without police permission.
The protesters, including lawmakers, students and an 85-year-old woman escorted by two teen-agers, rallied in a playground before marching to the government headquarters near downtown Hong Kong.
They carried banners and placards that read, "The law is not a tool for political oppression," and "Uphold assembly freedom." One protester carried a picture showing scenes from Beijing's crackdown on the pro-democracy movement in the mainland 11 years ago.
The government said last week it would not prosecute students arrested in an April demonstration, but police were still considering prosecution against those participating in a June demonstration.
Police representative Cynthia Au said Sunday's protest had been unauthorized, but she declined to say whether any arrests would be made.

Queers and Allies struggling to fill some officer positions
New group members can be apprehensive about participation
By Leita Schultes
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Queers and Allies has some fresh faces this semester and its members are facing new challenges.
Still, Andy Anderson, the organization's new director, said despite regular meeting attendance of about 30 people, officer positions had been difficult to fill.
"I think people don't realize that in order for this resource to be available for them, they have to be active participants in the organization." Anderson, Stillwater, Okla., junior, said.
The group is also waiting for a new resource coordinator to be selected for the homosexual community. Matthew Skinta, facilitator of the Queers and Allies support group, said there had been some concern among students that a new job description would not include advocacy of the homosexual community.
In the past, the position involved educational efforts, informational meetings and speaking engagements, said Skinta, Andover senior. Students feared changes would lead to a less active coordinator who served only as
a resource when students needed help.
"My biggest concern was the advocacy line," Skinta said. "Which I've been told has been added back."
Despite organizational changes, the group has managed to serve the homosexual community with events and support.

people to publicly state their sexual orientation, was usually recognized with smaller, evening celebrations. This year's event, he said, would show that Lawrence welcomes the homosexual community.
The group also celebrates Gay Pride Week in April, complete with a parade on Massachusetts Street and the Brown Bag Drag Show, which Anderson said usually had a very positive response.

Some general meetings are just for fun, Anderson said, such as the queer trivia event planned for Thursday, Oct. 19. Others are more informative, such as last month's presentation on safe sex. But they all provided a way for members of the homosexual community to socialize and learn about campus events, she said.
"It is supportive to be around people who don't have any judgmental issues about you and your sexuality," Anderson said.
Skinta said the homosexual community had a good relationship with the student body last year, but the relationship could change quickly and was influenced by campus media.
"While I've been here there's certainly been some pretty bad points," he said. "It seems like it's too early this year to tell."

Textbooks remain elusive for some students, stores
Even as midterms begin, some students still are having trouble hunting down textbooks for classes at the University of Kansas.
books for classes at the University of Kansas.
Luke Pech, Overland Park sophomore, said he had been waiting for a copy of the textbook for his Fundamentals of Physical Anthropology class to come in to the Kansas and Burge Union bookstores all semester. He finally tracked down a copy at University Book Shop, 1116 W. 23rd Street, on Wednesday, just in time for his Friday test in the class.
Graduate teaching assistants have complained about problems finding the book as well, he said, but clerks at the union books stores told him to keep checking in every few days.
"They kept saying, 'Check in some time next week, and it should be here,' and it never came in." Pech said.
The University Senate Executive Committee
Keith Kielman, textbook manager at Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, said that his bookstore requested textbook orders from faculty in April for the fall semester and October for the spring semester, but many don't turn in orders until just before the semester begins.
The University Senate executive committee — a group of faculty and student senators that review matters that come before the University Senate — has recognized the problem. It will discuss ways to ensure that textbook orders come in on time with managers of the Kansas and Burge Union Bookstores at a meeting next week, said Lisa Wolf-Wendell, associate professor of teaching and leadership and member of the committee.
"The vast majority don't turn that information in until a couple of weeks before the semester starts," Kielman said. "A lot of professors don't understand that when information is turned in that late, it's very difficult for us to go hunt those books down."
Kielman said several students still were coming into the store periodically to see if their textbooks had arrived, but the store was already starting to send back books that were over-ordered to make room for next semester's stock.
The bookstore studied trends from previous semesters to determine how many books to order for a given course, Kielman said. If students seem not to buy books for a certain course or for courses taught by a certain faculty member, the store orders less. In general, the store orders one third as many books as there are students enrolled in a class, he said.
"You're working with guesses," he said. "It depends on the history of the class and the instructors."
Peter Doddema, textbook manager at University Book Shop, also reported problems with late orders.
"We do have a real problem with professors putting in book orders a week before class," Doddema said. "This semester we had about 500 textbook orders in the last two weeks before class."
Wolf Wendell said that while some faculty did turn orders in late, others turned them in months ahead of time. And when faculty want to restructure a course for the coming semester, it's often difficult to get orders in early.
"If you want to make substantive changes to a course, the time to do that is the down time in the middle of the semester," she said. "If you don't get to it until Thanksgiving time, that's going to be too late for the bookstores."
Jayhawker Towers suffer through cold without any heat
- Edited by Clay McCuistion
By Jason Krall writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Students in Jayhawker Towers endured a weekend of temperatures dipping into the 20s, while students in KU residence halls had heat.
The decision came after weather forecasts predicted a cold spell.
The Department of Student Housing decided early last week to shut down the air conditioning in the residence halls and the towers. Only residence halls, however, had their heating systems switched on.
Omega Tadesse, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, junior and president of the Jayhawk Tower Tenants Association, said that when temperatures fluctuated from high to low, it was easier to keep warm without heat than it was to keep cool without air conditioning.
Phil Garito, associate director of student housing, said the air-conditioning units that deliver 40-degree water to cool the residence halls on Daisy Hill, as well as Oliver Hall, GSP-Corbin Hall and the towers, were shut down on Wednesday. That gave the network of pipes that deliver both hot and cold water to those buildings a couple of days to adjust before the system was filled with hot water from the heating system on Friday.
"You can't be dropping 100-degree water into a system that's used to 40-degree water." Garito said. "You'll have problems with breaking pipes."
Though they won't be able
to switch back to air-conditioning, Garito said the department could shut down the heat again this week because temperatures were expected to return to the 70s and 80s.
"In fall and spring, it gets kind of touchy. Sometimes we just have to deal with that few days where it's a little warm in there," he said. Scott Lowe, Virginia Beach, Va., graduate student and resident's assistant in McCollum Hall, said the temperature in McCollum was pleasant this weekend.
"I haven't heard any complaints one way or the other," said Lowe, who also is an online production assistant for the Kansan.
Case Collard, proctor for Pearson Scholarship Hall. said it was cold there this weekend, but with a forecast for warmer temperatures later this week Pearson residents weren't ready to ask for heat quite yet.
Stouffer Place is not connected to the central heating and air-conditioning system, and residents there can turn their heating on any time of year, Garito said. Scholarship hall residents decided for themselves when to have their heat turned on for the winter, he said.
"My room's pretty cold right now. It isn't that big a deal," said Collard, a Leavenworth sophomore. "Once we turn it on, we can't turn it off, and if it's going to heat up again, it would be roasting in here."

arrested in connection with the attack. But when she saw him moving his belongings out of Hashinger, she began to doubt that he was her attacker.
"It was him and me on the stairwell. He looked up, then looked away really fast," she said. "He just didn't look like the picture I had in my memory."
Hoskinson told officers that on the morning of the attack, he had been sleeping in his room, tired from a day of riding slides and diving into the pool at the Lawrence Aquatic Center.
"I was in my room sleeping," Hoskinson said. "I was dead tired that night because it was Hawk Night."
Hoskinson said he told officers he knew nothing about the attack or the victim except for the color of her hair, which Hoskinson claimed he was told by an officer.
"I couldn't tell them this lady looked like," Hoskinson said. "And I have no recollection of being on the sixth floor."
Hoskinson said the questions the police asked and the way they treated him made him uneasy.
"A couple of officers made me feel uncomfortable," he said. "I felt like they were trying to make me do something or admit to something."
Lt. Schuyler Bailey said he didn't know what could have made Hoskinson feel uncomfortable. Investigators were just trying to figure out what happened, he said.
"We were conducting a criminal investigation," he said. "We just wanted the truth."
Hoskinson agreed to take a lie-detector test and said he scored a .13 when he needed a .26 to pass. He said wasn't
worried because the test would not be admissible in court.
"I took the test and failed it," Hoskinson said. "Then again, what does a lie-detect test prove?"
Bailey defended the professionalism of the officers. But Hoskinson maintains his innocence and said he wasn't sure the investigators were trained to do their work.
"I know my innocence," Hoskinson said. "I didn't commit sexual battery, and they were trying to convince me that I did."

Candidates blend issues with hostility
like millions of other Americans, I sat down before the TV Tuesday and watched Bush and Gore try to verbally disembowel each other.
It was a pretty good fight. Jim Lehrer was suitably neutral, and asked some tough, pointed questions. We learned that Bush and Gore, knowledge aside, share the same tailor.
My roommate and I were disappointed that the debate did not include a Steel Cage Match, which would have been both amusing and a clear message to rogue dictators that our next president will be tough.
From the look of things, the candidates were wishing that they could engage in a little of that themselves. The two were openly hostile in a civil manner — a good thing, in my opinion.
There were several points that stood out, both high and low.
■ Shame on Fox and NBC for not carrying the debate. Their refusal to set aside 90 minutes to help Americans make an informed choice on the next leader of the free world is a petty, selfish, despicable show of amoral greed. It is especially galling in light of a recent bill, a Congressional giveaway

networks, on the caveat that they use it in the public interest.
It is safe to say that presidential debates are in the public interest. Yet Fox thinks that an overdone drama series is more important
— because it makes the network more money. Such a lack of patriotism and public interest, not to mention the executives' casual disregard of the nation's trust in them, should be remembered the next time a similar bill comes to Congress.
Congratulations to Lehrer, Bush and Gore for a debate focused on issues. Both men showed a refreshing lack of sound bites, even though each candidate did feel compelled to repeat his main theme again and again like a religious mantra. Their exchanges were spirited and vigorous, and both men gave the electorate something to be proud of.
electronic sorts Just in case you thought Al Gore didn't have ice water in his veins: Apparently his team requested that the temperature in the hall be a balmy 50 degrees. The Bush side understandably refused.
"And so that's my plan, Jim."
And so that governor Bush, why don't you respond to the vice president while I try to burn my podium for warmth?"
"Mah hands are blue! Ah can't speechify with blue hands!"
**Silly rhetoric was a repeated feature. For Gore, it was his "keep fighting for working families" pledge. Al Gore the Populist is a new and puzzling beast, only recently arrived on the political scene. Who knows when it'll vanish?**
For Bush, it was the rather whining accusations of "fuzzy math." There was nothing fuzzy about it. Gore may be wooden, uninspiring personally and pretty wokish, but he can handle a calculator. So can I. "Fuzzy math" apparently means "correct math that I don't like you telling people about." Name-calling as a defense of your budget proposal is weak and petty.
Bush came out the winner on style in several questions, most noticeably "snap decision in times of crisis" and "use and funding of the military." His delivery was superior to Gore's in those areas and probably sold people.
On reflection, however, Bush's example of a snap decision was the release of flood aid to Texas communities.
Texas communities.
Ahem. Sending relief aid to a devastated town in your state is hardly a tough decision for a governor — and the vice president's example, the risky involvement of the Russians in the Kosovo crisis, stands as a much harder choice under much greater pressures. Similar factual problems stood behind the military issue — Bush sounded better, but Gore promised twice as much money and more sophisticated weapons.
the winner? None. Both men handled themselves well. Gore did a better overall job, but with the lowered expectations for Bush, the governor scored a victory by just showing up and not drooling.

Cheese inspires change
Cheese. I never thought that a simple dairy product could change my outlook on life in one night.
At 20 years old, I found myself feeling as though I was in a rut, as though I wasn't moving forward in my life. I'm young. I work hard, have great friends and plenty of fun, yet somehow I felt alone and wanted more. I just didn't know what.
So I left. I left Lawrence and took a long weekend vacation to Colorado, and it was one of the best decisions of my life. In Colorado, I
felt like I really discovered myself and figured out that it was where I needed to be at that point in time.
But I came back. Back to Lawrence, a city I love dearly, but at a time when I needed to decide whether to stay here and be comfortable or to take action and get out, I stayed.
Amy B
Then I got a package in the mail. Out of the blue, a friend sent me a book called Who Moved My Cheese? I set it on the
bookshelf and didn't think twice. Last night, I decided to pick up the book. I read it front to back in 30 minutes.
Jennifer Dartt guest columnist opinion.com/kanan.com
Sniff and Scurry put on their running shoes and enter the maze in search for New Cheese. Hem and Haw feel cheated and wait for the Old Cheese to return.
The book is a fictional story about four mice looking for cheese, and it meant the world to me.
Sniff, Scurry, Hem and Haw walk the same path of a maze every day to get to the "cheese" that they think makes them happy. One day the cheese is gone.
The cheese represents anything in life that you think makes you happy: a job, a relation.
ship, school, anything that makes you feel stable and safe. In my case, it was everything
Each character can represent how a person reacts to change or how each reader can find a combination of all four characters inside themselves. I realized that I was made of all four, but Haw and Hem were the biggest contributors, the ones afraid of change.
Haw eventually sets out in search of New Cheese. He realizes that the maze has changed since that last time he was in it. It is long, uncertain and scary. But he learns to laugh at his own fears of leaving the Old Cheese. Once he can picture himself being happy with New Cheese, the maze becomes easier, and even a little fun.
Hem never stops waiting for the Old Cheese to come back and make him feel comfortable again.
Whether I will find it if I pack up and move to Colorado, I don't know. I may find my New Cheese right here in Lawrence. But I have no excuse not to find out if it is waiting for me somewhere else.
Why my friend decided to send me this book now, I will never know. But I have taken it as a sign to get myself in gear and stop living life every day "comfortably."
The Sniff and Scurry in me are already there, helping me picture myself enjoying life with something new. The Haw in me is hesitant but willing to try.
I have a need for change in my life and I know there are others out there who feel it, too. My advice: Leave the Old Cheese, search for the New. If you don't abandon what makes you comfortable, you will never know if there are other things out there that make you even happier.
Unfortunately, the Hem in me is still there, so comfortable that he will do anything to keep things the way they are.

Students, fans should support homecoming
Students should show their school spirit for this year's Homecoming.
In years past, Homecoming at the University of Kansas has been more of an afterthought than the celebration it is intended to be. This apathetic situation needs to change.
Homecoming is a time of parades, alumni returning to their alma mater and a time when young and old Jayhawks can celebrate their time at the University together.
This year's Homecoming, when the Jayhawks play the University of Colorado Buffaloes on Saturday. October 21, the University community needs to be more enthusiastic than in the past.
At many other Big 12 schools, Homecoming is a huge event. Other schools have parades in their cities that go through the downtown areas and are packed with screaming fans on both sides of the street.
Here at the University, people are involved in the Homecoming festivities but not nearly to the extent they should be.
Students, professors and alumni should be standing alongside Jayhawk Boulevard for Friday afternoon's parade. People should be there to show support not only for the football team and the KU Band but also for the University as a whole.
However, school support should not end Friday afternoon. Other Big 12 schools customarily tailgate before games, making Homecoming a special event. Everyone should get out on Saturday to show support for the University.
Let's show the other schools in the Big 12 that even though we may not be a football powerhouse, our fans are the best in the Big 12.

Students can't shoulder network fee increase
I am appalled by the administrative attitude demonstrated by the new proposed network upgrades ("Upgrade may cause fee increase in halls," Wednesday).
The Internet is an important part of most students' lives. We rely on it for research, recreation, news and keeping in touch with friends and family. This is the computer age, and the University's inability to cope with its expanding network should not be laid at the door of the students who have always had the Internet. Upgrades are unavoidable, but the cost of an ethernet connection has already doubled from last year. The University has a monopoly on Internet connections. If it wants students to use the ethernet, that's understandable, but connection is none too affordable as it is, and students struggling financially, as I am, should be upset with NTS for wanting to double or even quintuple the rate for Internet service.
In addition, the idea of requiring students to have a computer even to use a phone or a television is truly ludicrous. Many students
— though by no means the major ty — neither have nor want nor have the means of purchasing a computer. Besides which, the Internet connection fees "likely
would become part of the cost of student housing" regardless of whether the student owned a computer, or connected to the Internet. Imagine paying $447 a semester for Internet service when you don't have a computer and are unable to use a phone or a TV without it! The University is busy worrying about the enrollment of minority students, but if this trend of jacking up the prices (tuition, housing costs, food, Internet) continues, it had better start worrying about the enrollment of middle class students.
Wednesday's article says that N(u)U "may poll student housing residents to gauge support for the upgrades." Let me be the first to say, "Under no circumstances will I support such a hefty and biased fee."

Columbus Day hurts indigenous peoples
Since Cristóbal Colón was not European, the "fun" a small number of European Americans have with him annually as a fabricated ancestor must be entertainment delivered at the expense of indigenous peoples and our non-Indian allies.
Colón claimed he was Genoan; if so, in the words of Kirkpatrick Sale, "it hardly registers on his soul." According to Sale, Colón never knew a settled life or identity. Little wonder he is the hero of individuals who Luther Standing Bear in 1931 characterized as not understanding "the Indian for the reason that [they do] not understand America." Those people, in Standing Bear's words, were "too far removed from its formative processes. The roots of the tree of [their] life have not yet grasped the rock and soil."
Columbus (read Happy Invasion, Merry Genocide) Day is an annual reiteration of psychological colonization, an honoring of interminable conquest among a small group of lost individuals who, like Colon in 1492, do not yet today know a settled life or identity. Plain and simple, this what it is: a celebration that dances on the ruins and the trauma of the colonizer's ongoing crimes.

Chancellor approved "pass/fail" in June
The Oct. 3 Kansan editorial "Pass/fail" extension aids students" said the chancellor had approved the extension the week before.
I think it is important to recognize the role students and faculty play in changing academic regulations and am writing to provide more information about the process. The University Council, composed of elected faculty, staff and students, is responsible for formulating or amending academic
rules and regulations for the campus.
Recommendations of the Council go through an established review procedure before they are adopted. In the case of the extension of the "pass/fail" (credit/no credit) deadline, the Committee on Academic Procedures and Policies recommended that the Council approve amendments to the University Senate Rules and Regulations 2.2.8 concerning the credit/no credit option.
The University Council approved those amendments on March 9, and on March 21 sent them to the University Senate with the instructions that any petitions for further Senate review be submitted by April 7. No petitions were submitted, and on April 11, Mary Hawkins, president of the Council, and James Carothers, chairman of the Senate Executive Committee, forwarded the amendments to the provost and the chancellor for their review. The chancellor approved the amendments in early June. The amendments are incorporated in the current edition of the University Senate Rules and Regulations. The University Timetable of Classes for the fall already had gone to press by the time the amendments had been approved, so the University Registrar's Office posted signs to inform students of the change.
Perhaps this led to the fals impression that it had been approved only recently.

Unique class studies Internet interaction
Course focuses on how the Internet is helping harming modern society
By Jennifer Valadez
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The entire world is virtually a mouse click away, and with 55 million Americans using the Internet daily, a whole new system of communication has been established.
As this Internet community continues to grow, the problem of social isolation has become the center of numerous surveys and studies.
A June 2000 CNN.com article cited a 1999 American Psychological Association survey on Internet isolation. Six percent of the 1,700 surveyed Internet users fulfilled the following criteria defining addiction: feeling a building tension before the act, a rush of relief afterward and distortions of mood and bingeing.
The same article cited a Feb. 2000 issue of American Psychologist as stating many people found counsel in anonymous discussion groups, which are in abundance on the Internet.
Nancy Baym, assistant professor of communication studies, said Internet isolation and its validity were discussed in Coms 460, a course that was started at the University of Kansas last spring on a trial basis.
"It's a topic that carries a great deal of controversy," she said.
Baym said the studies conducted on Internet isolation included an atypical population which was not necessarily an accurate example of the overall population of Internet users.
"My experience is that people automatically assume it," she said. "Every student in my class uses the Internet, but they surely don't become socially isolated as a result of it."
Keith Yuen, St. Louis senior, took the class last semester and said he enjoyed it.
"I liked the information because it's a new subject," he said. "It gets away from traditional classés because it deals with communication on a modern basis."
Yuen said he had benefited from
- 24 million have used the Web and e-mail to locate or hunt for long-lost family members or friends.
Internet usage facts
- An average of 55 million Americans log on to the Internet each day.
- 84 million Americans have used e-mail.

learning how the Internet effected culture and the everyday atmospheres of Internet users. He said the class looked at possible online-inspired ways of life, such as online presidential elections.
"For the way that society is heading, it's important to have this class for the future," he said. "Society is moving toward technology and the class will teach how it will effect it."
Robert Rowland, chair of communication studies, said the course had received approval College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and would be offered as Coms 320. Rowland said he was unsure if the course would begin being offered next fall.
"The teachers have not assembled their work loads for next year," he said. The course introduces social and communication issues in the context of online interaction.
Baym said the course discussed some of the social aspects of online relationships, including numerous ways in which Internet users identified themselves online, the online community and the possibility of a digital divide that could be created by online interpersonal communications.
Baym said the course, the only one of its kind at KU, offered students a different perspective.
"It is something different that makes people more aware of what's online," she said. "It may find students spending more time online and becoming more involved in online relations."

Committee seeks guidelines for allotting computers
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Student organizations that want their own computers may soon find it easier to obtain Student Senate financing.
A finance subcommittee has developed a series of recommendations which could lead to a set of guidelines for financing computers and technology for student organizations. Such guidelines would make it easier for Senate to determine which groups should get computers.
The subcommittee determined that instead of allocating money to groups for purchasing computers. Senate should purchase up to four new computers a year for the Organizations and Leadership Development Center in the Kansas Union. All student organizations will continue to have access to the computers in the workspace.
With the addition of new computers, a registered student organization could request a computer for its exclusive use. Senate would then determine which groups would receive a computer, and
those groups would get a computer for four years, said Lisa Braun, a member of the Technology F u n d Subcommittee.
The subcommittee
STUDENT
THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
SENATE
The subcommittee was commissioned in the spring, in part because of a conflict that arose last year. OAKS, a non-traditional student organization, requested funding to purchase a computer. Korb Maxwell, then-student body president, vetoed the bill granting the money.
Braun said the new proposal represented the best possible compromise.
"In the best-case scenario, we would have an infinite budget, and everyone who wanted a computer would come and get their own." Braun said. "Since we don't have an infinite budget, this is our best scenario."
The recommendations would also require an organization requesting a computer to have occupied an on-campus space or office for at least one year. The group also must be able to keep the computer in a secure location. Using a
professor's office would not qualify, however.
Justin Mills, subcommittee member, said the requirements for obtaining a computer weren't intended to exclude organizations that didn't have an office.
"I'm sure some groups won't be happy about that, but there has to be some accountability and some compromise." Mills said. "We don't want to give a computer to the office of a professor because it could be used for other things. For the most part, groups that need a computer are going to be larger groups that already have space in the Union or other departments."
Mills said he thought the recommendations, if adopted, would benefit students.
"I definitely believe it will be more productive. Before, there was no policy, and a lot of times it was cause for debate." Mills said. "With OAKS, part of the problem was that there was no real guideline for the funding of technology. The proposal given to Finance should alleviate most of the problems we have with groups wanting technology."
Other recommendations proposed by the subcommittee included contracting
STUDENT SENATE
What happened: The Student Senate Technology Fund Subcommittee proposed recommendations to the Finance Committee regarding financing computers for student organizations.
What it means: Registered student organizations may be able to request computers from the Organization and Leadership Development Center as they become available.
What's next: Senate will introduce legislation in the future to implement the recommendations.
with the Union so registered student organizations could use Union audiovisual equipment for free, establishing a storage server for the Organization and Leadership computers, and hiring a computer support person.
braun said the next step was for the Finance Committee to address legislation that would put the recommendations into effect. Bills dealing with the issue could come as early as next week, she said.

Some airlines hoping to add Internet access
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Hoping to soothe delayed passengers, several airlines want to install wireless Internet access in airport terminals that will allow travelers to work, surf the Web or even watch digital movies to pass the time.
Delta Air Lines is already offering the service at its terminal in Vancouver, British Columbia, and plans to have it available by the end of next year in its main hub cities Atlanta, Cincinnati and Dallas-Fort Worth.
United Airlines, which had the worst on-time performance in August among the major carriers announced plans to start its

Passengers will need only a computer with the right wireless modem — the latest laptops are equipped — and a few dollars to pay for access.
Frequent filers will be able purchase an unlimited access account for $40 to $60 a month. David Stempler, president of the Air Travelers Association, a travel advocacy group, said he saw the

"As passengers experience more delays and cancellations, they find themselves in the waiting areas longer than they're used to," he said. "Clearly, to make that time more productive, it's a tremendous benefit for passengers."

"Wireless access would be dynamite," said Derrick Gurski, a national sales manager at a Chicago lighting company, while he waited for a flight at Washington's Reagan National Airport. "The more I can stay in contact with my factory and my sales people, the better it's going to be."
Delta and United are partners with Aerzone, a San Francisco company backed by major electronic industry players like Nokia and Cisco, to provide wireless local area networks, or LANs, at airport lounges, gates and terminals.
With a properly equipped computer, travelers will be able to connect to their office computers through the Internet, check and send e-mail or shop on the World Wide Web.
For those looking for something a bit lighter, the wireless pipeline to the Internet is expected to be large enough to allow passengers to download a DVD movie in three minutes or watch full-screen television.
The plans come at a time when relations between airlines and travelers are frayed over delays. Only 70 percent of planes are making their schedules, the Transportation Department said. United Airlines came in last among the 10 large carriers in August, with just 42.7 percent on-time arrivals.
While the new technology promises possibilities for passengers, it will not erase all their problems.

Government works against resistance
New president's regime must peacefully include Milosevic supporters
The Associated Press
BELGRade, Yugoslavia — Fresh from engineering the ouster of Slobodan Milosevic, backers of President Vojislav Kostunica wrestled yesterday with a new daunting task — creating a government free of powerful Milosevic allies without alienating them.
Even though Kostunica's authority was cemented by his inauguration as Yugoslav president Saturday, potential resistance to him remained on two levels: from Milosevic appointee still in place in federal ministries and from the powerful government of the Serbian republic.
Serbia, one of two Yugoslav republics, makes up 90 percent of Yugoslavia's population of 10 million. Its pro-Milosevic president — who by law has more powers than Kostunica — controls about 100,000 police, and indirectly much of Serbia's economy.
In addition, the Yugoslav army, whose top leadership switched loyalties to Kostunica on Friday, obliquely criticized the unrest that helped bring him
to power.
The statement issued after a meeting between Kostunica and army leadership yesterday indicated that the military was abandoning the role of complete subservience that it played under Milosevic for the more traditional role of a pillar upholding law and order in Yugoslavia.
How to keep the state running on near-empty coffers was another problem — Yugoslavia is bankrupt after a decade of stifling international anti-Milosevic sanctions and widespread corruption.
A top economist said to become the new central bank governor said yesterday a further blow to the country's economy was narrowly averted in the dying days of the Milosevic regime.
Mladan Dinkic, who heads the team of Kostunica's economic advisers, told a televised phone-in program that hackers of the new
M. R. SMITH
president turned off the central bank's computer system to prevent raids on state coffers by Milosevic cronies.
Milosevic: might face charges from state prosecutors
Dinkic said Milosevic's associates tried to take away at least $22.5 million electronically and in cash.
Earlier, Dinkic demanded that Milosevic be prosecuted for vote-rigging in the controversial Sept. 24 election.
"We now expect state prosecutors to bring charges against Shibodan Milosevic." Dinkie said.
Yugoslavia suffered a decade of international sanctions under Milosevic meant to punish him for starting four Balkan wars that were accompanied by a string of atrocities. The sanctions — and rampant corruption ascribed to Milosevic cronies — have left the country bankrupt.
A human rights group in Yugoslavia, the Humanitarian Law Fund, also demanded punishment for the ousted autocrat, issuing long lists of his alleged misdeeds.
Milosevic himself has vowed to try to stage a comeback and said he would remain in Yugoslavia as a political force. Kostunica has refused to extradite Milosevic to the U.N. war crimes tribunal in The Hague, which indicted him last year for atrocities committed by his forces in Kosovo.
Kostunica scored a stunning upset over Milosevic in the presidential election. The strongman's attempt to deny Kostunica's victory sparked a national uprising, and Milosevic conceded defeat on Friday.
Kostunica, a 56-year-old legal scholar, has promised to return Yugoslavia to "the family of democratic nations," secure a lasting peace and end economic devastation that marked the 13 years of Milosevic's rule.
Plan to infect cats in HIV study sparks outrage
The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A researcher's plan to infect 120 cats with the feline version of HIV and then inject them with methamphetamine to study the effects has outraged animal rights activists and is raising questions about the need for the federally funded study.
Ohio State University professor Michael Podell received a $355,000 grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse, part of the National Institutes of Health, for the first year of what he expects to be a five-year study costing $1.68 million.
"We want to understand more about HIV and drug abuse in people," said Podell, associate professor of veterinary clinical sciences. "One of the ways to do that is to develop an animal model that has similar characteristics."
Podell also is interested in the drug's effect on the nervous system. Methamphetamine speeds up neurological degeneration — something Podell said
was becoming more of a problem because people with AIDS are living longer because of improved drug treatments.
Podell said feline immunodeficiency virus and human immunodeficiency virus had similar effects on the immune and neurological systems of their respective hosts. Cats' response to methamphetamine also is similar to the way people respond.
Peter Wood, a spokesman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, attacked the study as cruel, wasteful and bizarre. He argued that HIV and FIV aren't similar enough for the research to transfer to humans and that the social pressures that would lead a person to take methamphetamine can't be replicated with cats.
"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know meth use will have an adverse effect on your body so the disease will be promoted more vigorously," he said. "Our limited resources would be better spent on teaching people how to avoid contracting HIV or on

drug prevention."
Podell defended the study and said the National Institutes of Health had a set amount of money earmarked for AIDS research.
"The NIH has predetermined how to proportion their funds into basic science, clinical science and prevention programs," he said. "The NIH has a very large budget for drug abuse prevention. There's already a tremendous amount of funding for that and it's not a situation where they'd take these funds and use them for a prevention program."
Clinton reflects, voices regrets about tenure
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Reflecting on nearly eight years in office, President Clinton said his tenure began with grand ideas, such as health care reform, that fell victim to political naivete, and his presidency would end with a graceful step to the sidelines in January.
"I don't think the new president, whoever it is, will have problems with me acting like I wished I were still president." Clinton said in the New Yorker magazine released yesterday.
If given a second chance, Clinton told political writer Joe Klein, he would do some things differently, from health care reform and U.S. involvement in Somalia to his personal life and Whitewater.
Of the health care effort led by Hillary Rodham Clinton in 1983, he said his administration's agenda was too crowded with other priorities such as
Clinton: Said the new president wouldn't have problems with him wishing he was still president
an economic package for the United States.
"I was trying to get as much done as quickly as I could and also trying to learn the job, learn how to get the White House functioning," he said.
Another early challenge was Somalia. Clinton said his decision to try to capture warlord Mohamed Farah Aidid was based on the advice of Gen. Colin Powell, who retired as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff soon after the operation began. Hundreds of Somalis and 18 U.S. soldiers were killed.
He said his greatest achievements were dealing with impeachment and the government shutdowns in 1995 and 1996.
Clinton described 1988, the year of his impeachment and the Monica Lewinsky scandal, as both painful and pleasant.
"I had made a terrible personal mistake," he said. But the year also offered healthy economic indicators convincing Clinton his policies of deficit reduction, welfare reform and support for free trade were going well.

Soccer splits season's last home games
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Even a special day like Senior Day couldn't stop the Kansas women's soccer team's inconsistency.
For the seventh weekend in a row, Kansas split its weekend games. The Jayhawks defeated Texas Tech 1-0 Friday at SuperTarget Field in Lawrence but fell to Colorado 1-0 yesterday — and couldn't celebrate Senior Day with a victory.
The irony is that Kansas played poorly in Friday's game but still won, and played well in yesterday's game but suffered a shutout loss.
"For the second half, we played really well," said Kansas coach Mark Francis after yesterday's game. "I think we did everything except score."
Although the Jayhawks outshot Colorado 17-11 and created more scoring chances than the Buffaloes, Kansas' only big mistake in the game decided the winner.

In the 32nd minute, a back-pass to goakeeper Layla Young was stolen by Colorado forward Melissa Carmell, who touched it past Young and hit it to the Kansas goal.
"The goal we gave was terrible." Franchis said. "It was a miscommunication or no communication in the back."
"We played well. It's just very disapointing to lose on a bad mistake."

"It was emotional, but at the same time, we did have a big game to play," she said. "We played well. It's just very disappointing to lose on a bad mistake."
The situation was reversed in Friday's game — a big win with sloppy performances.
"It was ugly." Francis said of Kansas's performance against the Red Raiders. "Today, we were about 60 percent."
When it seemed that the game would go into overtime, two Kansas senior players stood up.
From the beginning, Kansas kept attacking the Red Raiders' goal, outshooting them 15-8. The game, however, remained scoreless until the final minutes and became more and more physical as both teams got frustrated. The teams committed a total of 23 fouls.

Ryan Lynch has played his tuba enough, and seen enough Kansas football, to know that change does not always come easily.
In his 10th year as a University student and band member, Lenexa native Lynch knows that "I'm a Jayhawk" will be played regularly at sporting events.
Lynch will not be around to find out whether the Jayhawks can sing a different tune against Kansas State any time soon — after the Wildcats shellacked them 52-13 Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
Kansas looked like a start-up band when the game started. The team nearly lost the conductor of its offense, senior quarterback Dylan Smith, when he was leveled on the game's third play. Smith rolled out to pass and never saw Chris Johnson charging at him. Smith fumbled, leading to K-State's first touchdown, and he missed two series to get X-rays.
"I was hoping it might turn out different," he said after performing at halftime, when Kansas trailed 38.0.
"It made me kind of nervous," Smith said.
There were plenty of reasons for Kansas to be apprehensive. Kansas State quarterback Jonathan Beasley ran an eclectic offense that kept Kansas guessing. Beasley completed 12 of 18 passes for 235 yards and one touchdown before he was removed in the second half.
K-State rushed for 217 yards, including nine rushes for 22 yards by David Allen, who returned for his first game since injuring his ankle in the season opener against Iowa.
Kansas coach Terry Allen summed up Kansas State's performance bluntly.
"We got beat by a very good foot-ball team," he said.
Unlike Kansas, at least Lynch and the band had fun. Even when the game was far from winnable for the Jayhawks, and wisecracks rang from the purple crowd that surrounded the band, Lynch kept his humor.
It's his last season, so he's going to enjoy every game — regardless of the outcome. Besides, he's also in the basketball band, which will tune up Friday at Late Night with Roy

Williams.
Lynch stuck around Lawrence to earn two degrees. He has one in civil engineering, which he earned in 1955 — Kansas' last successful football season.
"That was a fun year," he said. "It'd be nice to get football back to that level here."
He was at Kansas in 1992, when Kansas last defeated the Wildcats. Nobody, Lynch said, could have expected to see such a discrepancy between the two programs created since then. Of course, not many college students get to analyze so many years in person.
It doesn't seem Kansas will defeating the Wildcats anytime soon. The 'Hawks have lost the last three games against K-State 54-6, 50-9 and now 52-13.
Lynch said he wouldn't wait another 10 years for a turnaround — at least not as a student.
"I'll be in the stands," he said. — Edited by Clay McCusition
Longhorns edge by Hawks in five games

Despite positives, 'Hawks still lose fourth straight
Bv Sarah Warren
After seeing both school's football teams get thumped Saturday afternoon, the Texas and Kansas volleyball teams seemed to keep things as close as possible Saturday night when Texas came to the Horejsi Family Athletic Center.
Games two, three and four were each two-point decisions, dragging the match out into five games. However, the Jayhawks dropped their fourth-straight match, losing 11-15 to the Longhorns in the fifth game. It was the third of that streak to go into five games.
"Rally can go either way," said Kylie Thomas, sophomore middle blocker. "It's the mistakes you make that can finish it for you."
And with the rally scoring used in game five, the team who has the better numbers, like Kansas, doesn't always win.
With Saturday's heartbreaker, Kansas dropped to 11-6, 2-6 in the Big 12 Conference, while the Longhorns improved to a seemingly mediores 4-10, 3-4.
"We had a higher hitting efficiency, more blocks, but they played well in the end," Kansas coach Ray Beachard said. "They stepped it up a bit in game five."
"Their record certainly isn't an indication'of their team if you look at some of their previous opponents," Bechard said. "This is a team that won at Baylor."
Kansas failed to do the same, starting its four-game losing streak.
And although the Jayhawks dropped the match, the 'Hawks

Meanwhile, junior setter Molly LaMere broke her own record in the five-game set assists category by recording 84 for the Jayhawks.
Senior middle blocker Danielle Geronymo recorded Kansas' first triple-double since joining the Big 12 in 1996, by pulling out 21 kills, 18 digs and 11 blocks against the Longhorns and long
time friend Katia Lara, a Texas outside bitter.
Three Jayhawks, in addition to Myatt and Geronymo, recorded double-figure kills. Outside hitters senior Nancy Bell notched 16 and freshman Sarah Rome had 14, while Thomas smacked down 12 of her own.
But what made the difference in the Kansas/Texas squeaker wasn't Kansas' ability to make the kills, but rather the play of a formerly injured Longhorn.
"Gipy Duarte was the difference. She had 22 kills," said Beachard of Texas' junior outside hitter from Lima, Peru. "She's coming off an injury but she really came back tonight. If Texas would have had her in some of their earlier matches this year, she definitely would have made a difference."
Kansas will hit the road to take on Missouri at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Columbia, Mo.

Jayhawks rolled over for Wildcats
A quick history lesson:
In ancient times purple dye was extremely rare and thus very expensive. Only kings and noblemen could afford its use, and therefore purple became the color of royalty.
Nowadays, to Kansas fans' chagin, the color can be generated easily through chemical processes and is available in mass quantities to the dull denizens of Manhattan.
The sole method for obtaining purple dye was to extract it from marine gastropod mollusks — basically, tiny shellfish. So to color, for instance, a single king's robe, thousands and thousands of these shellfish were harvested from the sea and crushed for their colorful innards.
That purple — which now denotes football royalty in the state of Kansas — is sustained not by crushing shellfish, but by crushing cream-puff football teams.
We here on Mount Oread love to disparage K-State's football greatness by reciting the litany of non-conference ninies that Wildcat coach Bill Snyder lines up every year. But, and I hate to point this out, no team has rolled over for the Wildcats more readily the last several years than our own Jayhawks. And this weekend was no exception.
The 'Hawks looked more defenseless than shellfish sans shells in Saturday's 52-13 crushing. They put up no more fight against K-State than did Louisiana Tech (54-10) or North Texas (55-10).
Even the most optimistic Kansas fan didn't really think the team could actually win this one. Kansas coach Terry Allen had spoken more about "closing the gap" between the two programs. The gap appears wide open.
Allen insists that Kansas has better athletes than in previous years. To some degree, that's true — although K-State's team speed made the 'Hawks look as though the new turf was sticking to their cleats.
But the real problem is simple: K-State's coaching is vastly superior to ours. Allen just can't compete with Snyder's monomaniacal approach to the game. Snyder is relentlessly meticulous and has unsurpassed football acumen, as evidenced in his team's execution.
Kansas' execution, on the other hand, has rarely been sharper than that of a butter knife. Turnovers, missed blocks, kicking gaffes, etc. have plagued the 'Hawks even in their wins. And it doesn't help that the offensive play calling has all the imagination of this year's presidential debates.
"We run draw plays and prayers," one astute observer pointed out at Saturday's game.
Anyone who has watched Kansas this year is familiar with the draw-play reference — certainly opposing coaches are. The prayers were Dylan Smith's long pass attempts that required divine intervention just to avoid a desperate interception.
And desperation may be the theme for the rest of this season. It's unlikely that Allen's team will be favored in any game for the remainder of the season (with the possible exception of Oct. 28's game against Texas Tech). A 29 record with a big goose egg in the conference should be unacceptable to all the boosters who invested in turning this team around.
Playing jester to the purple here in Kansas is one thing, being the doormat to the entire conference is something else.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 9) This year you can be a big help to somebody in need. Formal education may be put on hold for a while, as you concentrate on a different kind of lesson. You attract attention in October and money in November. Don't let hurt feelings slow you down in December. By February you should be full of great ideas. In March, listen more than you talk. By June you should have gained a new perspective and by November a new sense of determination.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
Atlanta (March 21- April 19) — Today is a 5.
This is not a good travel day for you. The good news is that your friends and partner are eager to help. You might not have to run all over town to get what you need. Ask them to get it for you while they're out.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6.
A fool and his or her money are soon placed. That could happen to you if you take a friend's advice. This person is kind, sweet and gentle, but not your best financial adviser. Following emotions when betting won't work on your well, either.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5.
You may feel like you're in a teater-tocker.
Somebody else is making changes that affect you, but you're not sure they're changes you want. Speak up. Share your experience so the other person does it to learn the hard way — like you did!
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
Lots of things are unsure today, but one thing's
certain. If you travel far, your odds of taking a
detour or suffering through traffic are high. Do
yourself a favor. Make a phone call instead. If you need
something, have it delivered or mailed to you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
Lao (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
Although a loved one or good friend suggests a long shot, decline. A risky proposition is not likely to benefit you. It could cost you a lot. Instead of speculating, study. That's an excellent investment of your time.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — today is a 7.
You're good at setting priorities and staying on schedule. You'll be a big help to others. Somebody who goofs up could actually do you a favor. Keep the boss's interests in mind and be ready to move quickly. More responsibility could mean a fatter paycheck.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 5.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
BURR jasper 20-6-27 Tuesday at 8 a.m.
You may wish you could stay in bed, and that's not a bad idea. Keep travel to a minimum. Keep in contact with your sweetheart even if it's electronically. That'll keep your spirits up.
Jacob (Oct. 20, 2017) 19:54
A romantic rendezvous is liable to run into difficulties. For instance, you could commute for an hour to make the date, and then realize you're on the wrong train. Stay home. Schedule your date for tomorrow.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Today is a 4.
An annoying person could make your life miserable.
This yahoo keeps arguing with you. Even worse, quite often he or she is right. If you're wise, you'll give up and take notes. Save your pride for later.
C
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 5.
You might come through a difficult situation smelling like a rose. If you do, it's because you've learned not to become emotionally attached to money. Either that, or you have the good sense not to bet any more than you can afford to lose.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
Avoid a difficult situation by staying out of the way. Don't offer helpful suggestions, either. A new idea of yours could backfire and make a bigger mess. Let somebody else do it.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
Pictures (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
Others may think you have more going on than you can handle. From your point of view, it's not that bad; you have a friend you can call in times of need. You might want to place that call early. Make it as easy on yourself as possible.

Pitcher to miss playoffs for fractured kneecap
SEATTLE — Jamie Moyer's playoffs with the Seattle Mariners are done before they begin.
The 37-year-old left-hander has a hairline fracture in his left knee. He will miss the American League championship series and, if the Mariners make it, the World Series.
Manhers made it the WORK Series.
Moyer, a 13-game winner, was struck in the knee by a line drive off the bat of Chris Widger in a simulated game Saturday at Safeco Field. X-rays yesterday revealed the injury.
Moyer didn't pitch in Seattle's division sweep of the Chicago White Sox. He was scheduled to be the Game 4 starter for manager Lou Piniella on Saturday.
Moyer will need four to six weeks to heal, and his knee will be placed in a splint for seven to 10 days. He will be with the Mariners on the bench throughout the playoffs.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
If he continued to pitch, the crack in his kneecap could widen and he might need surgery.
M
for the American League Championship Series will be left-hander John Halama and right-handers Freddy Garcia, Aaron Sele and Paul Abbott. Abbott, who started Game 2 in Chicago on Wednesday, was going to be in the bullpen for the series before Moyer's injury.
No. 3 Virginia Tech 35, Temple 13 BLACKSBURG, Va. — Freshman cornerback Eric Green intercepted two passes and Virginia Tech held Temple to 116 yards.
Green, making his first start, intercepted a pass and returned it 41 yards to set up a touchdown that gave the Hokies (5-0, 3-0 Big East) a 28-13 lead. He also intercepted a pass in the end zone with nine minutes left to play.

Final home loss emotional for senior soccer players

Kansan sportswriter
The largest senior class in Kansas soccer history bid farewell to SuperTarget Field yesterday, but it wasn't on the happiest of terms.
Kansas lost 1-0 to Colorado on Senior Day, the final home game of the year, and fell to 7-7 for the season.
Colvin wasn't the only one who had chances to score. The Jayhawks had their chances, placing 9 or 17 shots on goal, but never converted.
"It would've meant a lot (to win), especially if I would have put one of those three shots that I had in," said senior forward Colleen Colvin.
"It's not like we didn't have opportunities to score," Kansas
With 12 minutes remaining, junior Natalie Hoogveld drove a pass across the front of the goal to Colvin, who slid for the shot but sent it wide to the left. Junior midfielder Melanie Schroeder dribbed around the defense and fired a shot just high and right of the net with six minutes left. Schroeder lofted a corner kick in front of the goal with three minutes left. Peterson deflected the ball and Hoogveld drilled a shot that was deflected by a Colorado defender.
coach Mark Francis, "Their goalkeeper (Whitney Peterson) played really well. She was a big difference in the game, but still, with one-on-one's with their keeper you should put those away and we didn't today."
Despite the loss, Colvin said Senior Day was still a sad and special farewell for her senior class.
"I got pretty emotional after the game." Colvin said. "This is it. It's the last time we get to hear the warm up tape and play in front of our fans and friends."
Each senior was recognized in a pregame ceremony and then all seven were inserted into the starting lineup and played together for the first 17 minutes of action.
The loss of the seniors, Johanna Larsson, Kylie Watts, Emma Di Cesare, Katie Lents, Meghann Haven, Lindsey Horner and Colvin, will leave large holes to fill across the field.
Haven and Colvin are the top scorers in program history and Di Cesare is a co-captain and was last year's defensive Most Valuable Player. Larson is a threat on offense and defense. Horner is the program career leader in game-winning goals with four, three this year. Lents is a co-captain and the emotional leader. Watts is a threat

from the back, scoring five career goals as a defender.
Although Kansas lost yesterday, Friday was a different story as two seniors combined to save the day. After 88 minutes of a scoreless tie, Haven sent a cross pass to Horner who collected the ball and drilled it into the back of the net to secure the victory.
The Jayhawks stand 3-3 in the Big 12 Conference and a conference tournament berth, something Kansas has never attained, is still within reach. Their home games completed, the 'Hawks will have to earn that berth on the road in Texas.
Mets head to National League Championship
Colvin said she hoped her final days in a Kansas Jersey would lead to that appearance in San Antonio at the tournament.
"I'm looking forward to the rest of our season. We have some good games coming up," she said. "Hopefully we will get some wins out of it and get into the post-season."

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The New York Mets didn't need any more late-lining dramatics.
They scored early this time, and Bobby J. Jones did the rest to finish off the San Francisco Giants and put the Mets back in the National League championship series.
Jones pitched the sixth complete game one hitter in postseason history and Robin
Ventura gave New York all the offer it needed with a two-run homer in the first inning as the Mets eliminated the Giants with a 40 win in Game 4 of their division yesterday.
Jones limited the Giants to a clean, fifth-inning double by Jeff Kent, helping the wild card Mets win the final three games of the series and avoid a cross-country trip and a decisive Game 5 in San Francisco.
Bonds dropped to 0-5 in playoff series — three with Pittsburgh, two with the Giants — with a .196 batting average overall. Fittingly, the three-time MVP made the final out of the series, hitting a fly ball to center field that left him 3-for-17 against the Mets.
The Giants (97-65), who finished with the best record in the majors, had their magical season end with a whimper, in part because Barry Bonds was a postseason bust again.
New York earned themselves two days off before opening the National League Championship Series in St. Louis on Wednesday. The Mets were 6-3 against the Cardinals this season.
Jones, in his first career postseason start, made quite a name for himself.
Known as much for being one of two Bobby Joneses on the Mets as for his own pitching.
Jones etched his place in Mets postseason history.
Shea Stadium still felt the electricity of Saturday night's 13-inning 3-2 Mets win. Fans chanted Benny Agbayani's name as he stretched before the game, about 18 hours after his homer had brought the Mets one win away from the National League
Championship Series.
That used New York's fifth straight
That was New York's fifth straight postseason win in the last at-bat, including a 5-4, 10-inning victory in Game 2 at San Francisco.
Mets fans didn't need to wait as long this game. Jones struck out Bonds on a high fastball to end the first, drawing an ovation from a crowd ady for another celebration.

bar and infirm the scoreboard Ventura, who had been just 1-for-12 in the series, rounded the bases as fireworks shot up behind the center-field fence and fans threw confetti from the upper deck. The Mets poured out of the dugout to greet Ventura, a team leader who had struggled much of this season.
After struggling to a 1-3 record with a 10.19 ERA after eight starts, Jones was banished to the minors. He returned two weeks later and won 10 of his final 13 decisions.
Jones wasn't even certain to start in this series. Manager Bobby Valentine toyed with the idea of starting Mike Hampton on three days' rest or using left-hander Glendon Rusch in Game 4, but stuck with Jones.

Soccer repeats split-game pattern
Continued from page 1B
Less than three minutes before the buzzer, midfielder Meghann Haven's cross pass found forward Lindsey Horner, who collected the ball, turned and buried it to the Texas Tech goal.
"We played a sloppy game today. We were lucky to come away with a win."
"I was glad. I definitely didn't want to go into overtime in this weather." Horner said.
The goal was her third game winner this season, but Horner didn't seem impressed with her own accomplishment.

really kind of got going," he said. Having split its last home games this season, Kansas (7-7, 3-3 in the Big 12) may have to win one more conference game on the road to qualify the Big 12 Tournament.
"It didn't look like either team
But the team is already determined to collect victories on the road.
"We've got a lot of tough games to play," Di Cesare said. "But there's no doubt in my mind that we can compete with anybody in our conference so long as we show up to play on any given day."

'Hawks look to regroup, try to focus on positives

Although a large number of Kansas State supporters made it through the gridlock on the Kansas Turnpike and sat in close proximity to Kansas fans, the Wildcat and Jayhawk fans didn't show as much hostility toward each other as they could have.
Kansas coach Terry Allen, unlike some coaches, didn't publicly blast his team for a lackluster performance, quitting, failure to perform as required by the game plan or missing assignments. He was nice about what happened and said the Jayhawks needed to regroup their forces for Saturday's game against Missouri in Columbia, Mo.
"We need to build on what we've got, repair some egos and head on over to Columbia and play," he said.
A couple of areas that need building on come to mind. The Jayhawks were 2 of 15 on third down conversions and K-State recorded six sacks.
And in the Kansas locker room after the game, everybody was as nice as they could be after losing 52-13.
Senior quarterback Dylan Smith said the offense didn't play well and K-State was prepared for whatever the offense ran.
"I don't think anybody played well, to lose by 39." Smith said. "I can't speak for the (Kansas) defense, but (the K-State defenders) were calling out our plays when we came to the line."
The Wildcat football team was also cordial. With the exception of a personal foul, the K-State football team was politely efficient, particularly in the second quarter when it scored 31 points.
On the third play of the game, Smith was injured and had to leave the game for two series.
Senior fullback Norris norris said he was apprehensive about Smith's injury
when it happened.
"It was very scary," he said. "I was worried for Dylan's health. It appeared he was hurt pretty bad, but it really shows how strong of a competitor. he is for him to come back."
Smith said that the hit he took worried him, too.
"My neck was bothering me in the morning," Smith said. "So it kind of made me nervous when I took that hit. I wasn't expecting to take a hit like that that early in the game."
A bright spot for the Jayhawks was
junior nose tackle Nate Dwyer, who received credit for seven unassisted tackles, the most of any Jayhawk. After the game, he said a lot of things went wrong offensively as well as defensively and a performance like this couldn't get the job done in the Big 12 Conference.
"We're definitely frustrated," he said.
"But at the same time our confidence is down, also, but we just have to go back and watch film and focus on the positive things that we did and take care of the negatives."

Cornhuskers, Wildcats top AP poll
Conference rivals are No.1 and 2 for first time since'80s

After making it through the weekend unscathed, Big 12 Conference North rivals Nebraska and Kansas State are now ranked No.1 and No.2 respectively in the nation by the Associated Press.
This is the first time two teams from the same conference have been ranked No. 1 and No. 2 since 1887, when Big 8 power Oklahoma was No. 1 and Nebraska was No. 2.
No. 8 Oklahoma 63, No. 25 Texas 14
The Wildcats and Nebraska will meet Saturday, Nov. 11 in Manhattan. K-State plays No. 8 Oklahoma Saturday in Manhattan, and Nebraska plays Oklahoma Saturday, Oct. 28 in Norman, Okla.
It was billed as the Red River Shootout. However, Texas forget to bring its guns, and the Sooners (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) humiliated the Longhorns (3-2, 1-1) Saturday at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.
The Longhorn defense, ranked 13th in the nation before the game, was no match for the Oklahoma offense. The Sooners scored
touchdowns on their first five drives, and linebacker Rocky Calmus returned an interception 41 yards for another score in the first half.
The Sooners led 42-0 at halftime. Oklahoma running back Quentin Griffin set a school record, scoring six touchdowns rushing. Sooner quarterback Josh Heupl, who played until midway through the fourth quarter, was 17-of-27 for 275 yards.
No.1 Nebraska 49, Iowa State 27
Cornhusker quarterback Eric Crouch ran for 138 yards and a touchdown, and Nebraska (5-0, 2-0) pulled away from Iowa State late.
The Cyclones (4-1, 1-1) actually led 14-13 at halftime but couldn't handle Nebraska in the second half, yielding five touchdowns. "Husker running back Correll Buckhalter scored two touchdowns."
Buffalo freshman quarterback Craig Ochs passed for one touchdown and ran for another in his first college start, and Colorado (1,4-1) snapped Texas A&M's 22 game home winning streak. Ochs, the third Colorado starter at quarterback in six games
Cyclone quarterback Sage Rosenfelts completed 22 of 42 passes for 346 yards and two touchdowns, Iowa State is the third straight team to pass for more than 250 yards against the Cornhuskers. But the Cyclones, who came into the game averaging 227.5 yards per game rushing, couldn't run the ball and finished with only 37 yards on the ground. Colorado 26 Texas A&M 19
Colorado 26, Texas A&M 19

The Aggies (3-2, 1-1) rallied from a 12-0 deficit to lead 13-12 at halftime. But Buffalo Cortland Johnson scored on a 1-yard run and a 52-yard touchdown pass, and Colorado built a 26-16 lead early in the fourth quarter and held on for the victory.
this season, completed 15 of 25 passes for 239 vards and did not throw an interception.
Texas Tech 28, Baylor 0
Red Raider Ricky Williams ran for two touchdowns, and quarterback Kliff Kingsbury passed to Derek Dorris for two more, leading Texas Tech (5-1, 1-1) past Baylor. Kingsbury completed 33 of 50 passes for 322 vards.
Missouri quarterback Darius Outlaw, a redshirt freshman making his first start, threw for one touchdown and ran for another, and the Tigers (23, 1-1) beat the Cowbys (23, 0-2). Outlaw completed 14 of 27 passes for 191 yards.
Baylor (23, 0-2) used three quarterbacks trying to fill the void left by an early season injury to starter Greg Cicero.
Missouri 24. Oklahoma State 10
Tiger running back Zain Gilmore rushed for 169 yards on 27 carries, and Antoine Duncan had two interceptions in the third quarter to stifle Cowboy comeback attempts.

Holloman Update
"It was pretty nice to see Cliff play again," said Ervin, who played with his brother at Garden City Community College two years ago. "He looked big, I never saw him on the field, so we were basically just watching each other."
there's no question which Holloman is on the better team, but Cliff (Kansas State) and Envin (Kansas) played even compared with each other. Envin, a junior defensive lineman, recorded one tackle. Cliff, a senior, had none.
Field of Dreams
Kansas State barely had to work for some of its touchdowns. The Wildcats scored on first-half drives of 16, 20 and 30 yards.
Strong Words
Kansas' Daris Lomax was barely heard from defensively during the game — he had no tackles — but the senior linebacker hopes his teammates heard him afterward. He called the Jayhawks' last two losses "embarrassing," and said, "This is a waste of time right now. We're working too hard during the week not to reap the benefits on Saturday."
Point of No Return
Kansas travels to Missouri on Saturday, and Kansas coach Terry Allen can only hope the Jayhawks listen to a mom's sage advice: It's not nice to point. After losing two consecutive games, Allen has concerns about who might be blamed for the losses.
"We are going to regroup the forces," he said. "This was a devastating loss and we have played two good football teams in the last week and taken our lumps. We'll see how we bounce back,
"The important thing right now is our confidence level. We are going to build on what we have and repair some etos."
Bad Things Come on Thirds
The third play of the game has not been kind to Kansas the past two games. At Oklahoma, quarterback Dylan Smith threw an interception that led to a score. This time he fumbled on a sack, which led to KState's first score.
Where's Roger?
After a stellar game at Oklahoma, where he had three catches for 11.7 yards, Kansas wide receiver Roger Ross was on the bench more often than not.
"I'm shocked," he said. "I wanted to be out there making plays for my team. I love pressure situations like that. I had a good week of practice, I know all my plays. I don't understand what was going on. But I guess my coaches know what's best for me."
Did It Really Matter?
Kansas State coach Bill Snyer, as usual, was blasé about his team's performance, especially after the Wildcats already led 38-0.
"Maybe we didn't play as well in the second half as we would have liked." he said.
The Final Word
Allen emphasized all week that Kansas was much better off for this game than its past three games with K-State. He was, however, disappointed that nothing panned out.
"I still believe we have better athletes than we did before." Allen said, "Was it demonstrated today? No. Do I still believe that? Yes."

Remaining unbeaten teams vie for No.1 spot
The Associated Press
Will the real No.1 team in the nation please stand up?
Florida State sat down for now after losing to Miami 27-24 Saturday, allowing Nebraska to step right back up to No. 1 again a week after relinquishing the top seat to the Seminoles.
The Cornhuskers (5-0), though, have to be considered a shaky No. 1 at best after another less-than-overpowering 49-27 win against Iowa State in which the Cyclones led by a point at halftime.
N
With just seven of 115 IA teams unbeaten as the season reaches halfway, there are others poised for a shot at No.1, starting with Nebraska's Big 12 rivals — No.2 Kansas State (6-0) and No.8 Oklahoma (5-0).
K-State beat Kansas 52-13 and has outscored its first six opponents by a combined 254-51; Oklahoma beat No. 25 Texas 63-14 in the second-most lopsided
outcome in the 95-year history of the Red River Shootout.
Virginia Tech (5-0), which played for the national title a year ago, slipped to No. 3 this week after a 35-13 victory against Temple, with No. 5 Clemson (6-0), No. 6 Ohio State (5-0) and No. 12 TCU (5-0) the other undefeateds.
Several one-loss teams, led by No. 4 Miami, also have dead aim on No. 1. Others include Florida State, now No. 7. No. 9 Oregon, No. 10 Florida and No. 11 Washington.
Folks at Nebraska feel like this: "No doubt about it. If we're not No. 1, I don't know who is." Correll Buckhalter said after running for two touchdowns against Iowa State.
together, the computer could spit out a few surprises.
While the polls give fans a good idea of the best teams, it's the Bowl Championship Series standings that determine who plays in the national title game — this year in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 3. The first Bowl Championship Series standings will be released Oct. 26, and when the polls, schedule strengths and computer ratings are crunched
Commentary
Until then, a conference-by-conference look at why the second half of the season promises to be better than the first half —
and why it's possible there may be no unbeatens left when it comes time to pick the top two teams:
ACC
ACC Clemson (6-0, 4-0)
visits Florida State (5-
1, 3-0) in Bowden
Bowl II on Saturday, Nov. 4. And this time, both teams might be playing for a spot in the title game, not just Bobby's Seminoles. Last year, Tommy's 'tigers nearly spoiled the Seminoles' perfect season before FSU prevailed 17-14. Florida State also plays Florida Saturday, Nov. 18.
Big East
Virginia Tech (5-0, 3-0) and Miami (4-1, 2-
0) meet at the Orange Bowl on Saturday, Nov. 4, with not only the Big East title at stake, but also a shot at the national title game. Miami coach Butch Davis is 0-5 against the Hokies. The Hurricanes lost to Washington on Sept. 9.
Big Ten
Ohio State (5- 2, 0) is the Big Ten's lone unbeaten, although the Buckeyes are a half-game behind surprising No. 17 Northwestern (5-1, 3-0). The Wildcats and Buckeyes do not meet, but anything can happen in this league where each of the other nine teams have at least two losses. Ohio State finishes against No. 18 Michigan on Saturday, Nov. 18; Northwestern plays host to the Wolverines on Saturday, Nov. 4.
The wacky Pac-10 ran out of unbeats when Washington held off No. 23 Oregon State 33-30 late Saturday night. Two teams
Pac-10
- No. 22 Arizona (4-1, 2-0) and Oregon (4-1,
  2-1) are left unbeaten in league play.
The Wildcats are at the Ducks on
Saturday, Oct. 21. Don't count out the
SEC
beavers (4-1, 1-1) or the Huskies (4-1, 1-1)
in the Rose Bowl race.
The SEC is out of unbeatens, too, after No. 15 Mississippi State's 17-10 victory against No. 19 Auburn on Saturday. The SEC East looks like it will be decided when Florida (5-1, 3-1) and No. 14 Georgia (4-1, 2-1) play on Saturday, Oct. 28 in Jacksonville, but don't forget about No. 24 South Carolina (5-1, 3-1).
Lou Holtz's Gamecocks, who have beaten Georgia, play at Florida on Saturday, Nov. 11. The SEC West is wide open with Auburn (5-1, 3-1), Mississippi State (4-1, 2-1) and Mississippi (4-1, 2-1) leading the pack.
TCU, led by Heisman Trophy hopeful LaDainian Tomlinson, remained unbeaten with a 41-21 win against Hawai, and the team has a clear path to an 11-0 season. However, a weak schedule will hurt the Horned Frogs in the BCS standings and probably keep them out of the title game even if they are the only team left without a loss.
Miami upsets No.1 Florida State
The Associated Press
MIAMI — After 1,013 yards, 100 passes and 51 points, Florida State-Miami came down to Wide Right III.
When Matt Munyun's 49-yard field goal attempt sailed wide right as time expired, No. 7 Miami had a 27-24 victory against No. 1 Florida State on Saturday, derailing the Seminoles' national championship run and putting itself back into contention.
"I watched it, I watched it," said Miami receiver Reggie Wayne. "The only thing going through my mind was wide right one, wide right two, and I was hoping there would be a wide right three."
There was, much to the dismay of Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden, who lived through wide right field goals in 1991 and 1992 against Miami that probably cost his team a pair of national titles. The Hurricanes went on to win the national crown in '91.
U
"Wouldn't you know it?" Bowden said. "He's been wide left all year, and then that happens. We had him out there pretty far, though."
Even the Orange Bowl scoreboard carried the message: "WIDE RIGHT III" lit up as the crowd of 80,903 filed out of the stadium.
1 got all of it. I hit it hard. It just went right," said Munyon, who missed two of three field goals against Miami and is 3-of-8 on the season.
Until the frantic final minutes, Miami (4-1) had an answer for everything Florida State (5-1) tried. Four times in the first half, the Seminoles failed to score from inside the Hurricanes' 26-yard line. Twice, quarterback Chris Weinke threw interceptions on plays designed especially for this game. Two other times, Florida State passed on easy field goals and came up empty — once on a failed fourth-down run from the 16 and the other on an incomplete pass from the 13.
"We put some plays in that would have been touchdowns," Bowden said. "They didn't fall for them. They ate them up. I should have kicked."
Miami was glad he didn't as the Hurricanes won their biggest game in Butch Davis' six years as coach. Miami finally displayed its title form of years ago after five years of rebuilding from NCAA sanctions that stripped the school of 31 scholarships.
"It's huge for the program," said linebacker Dan Morgan after leading the "Canes with 15 tackles and an interception. "This is definitely going to put us in national contention. There's no telling how good this team can be."
The Seminoles fell behind 17-0 at the half, but they staged a rally in the final minutes behind Chris Weinke, who was 28-of-59 for a career-high 496 yards and three touchdowns — the final one a 29-yarder to Atrews Bell with 1.37 left that put the Seminoles ahead 24-20.
But Ken Dorsey answered for Miami, which took over on its own 32. Dorsey hit 6-of-7 passes, including hook-ups with Santana Moss for 13 yards, with Wayne for 17 yards and with Moss again for 19 yards to the FSU 8. A delay of game penalty moved the ball back 5 yards, and then Dorsey hit backup tight end Jeremy Shockey with a 13-yard scoring pass with 46 seconds to go.
Now, Florida State will have to win out and hope for help if it wants to defend its national title. Defensive end Roland Seymour walked around the locker room telling his teammates "we're going to bounce back, don't even worry about it."
Yankees trump A's in last game of series
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. — The New York Yankees, tired of being eulogized as fallen champions, broke out of their offensive malaise for a half inning and then barely held on for a series-clinching win against the Oakland Athletics.
Chuck Knoblauch's return to the lineup sparked a six-run first inning, leading the Yankees to a 7-5 winnereasy in the decisive Game 5 that completed a Big Apple playoff sweep of the Bay Area.
The Yankees, trying to become the first team in a quarter-century to win three straight World Series titles, wrapped up the division series less than five hours after the New York Mets completed their ousting of the San Francisco Giants.
The Yankees, forced to fly across the country early yesterday morning to finish the series with the A's, headed back to New York late last night to prepare for Tuesday night's American League championship series opener against the Seattle Mariners.
The wild-card Mariners were 6-4
against the Yankees this year.
Yankees starter Andy Pettite was pulled after 3 2-3 innings, but the New York bullpen picked him up. Playing for keeps, manager Joe Torre even brought in Orlando Hernandez for his first professional relief appearance.
Mariano Rivera got the final five outs for his 16th postseason save, breaking the record he had shared with Dennis Eckersley since Friday night.
After ending the regular season with seven straight defeats, the Yankees were written off as over-the-hill champions when they started this series with a loss at Oakland. An embarrassing 11-1 loss at home in Game 4 led to more condolences.
It took a half-inning, lasting 26 minutes, to lift the gloom.
Knoblauch, back in his accustomed leadoff spot after being benched for three games, lined the night's first pitch to right for a single. Derek Jeter walked and Paul O'Neill's high-chop single loaded the bases.
Bernie Williams drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, David Justice walked and Tino Martine doubled
in three runs with a drive off the center-field wall that Terrence Long broke in on. Jorge Posada's infield single chased losing pitcher Gil Heredia.
Luis Sojo greeted reliever Jeff Tam with a sacrifice fly on which Long again broke the wrong way, and singles by Scott Brosius and Knoblauch made it 60. A routine toss from catcher Ramon Hernandez forced Tam to dive for the ball for the flustered A's.
Both teams had gotten to bed about 4 a.m. — 13 hours before game time — but the aging Yankees were buoyant and the youthful A's were wining sleep from their eyes.
Oakland finally woke up an inning later, getting Randy Velarde's two-run single. An RBI double by Eric Chavez in the third pulled the A's within three runs.
Justice homered in the fourth, giving New York a 7-3 lead, but Oakland got two more in the bottom half on sacrifice files by Jason Giambi and Olmedo Saenz — knocking out Pettitte, the winner in New York's 4-0 victory in Game 2 but ineffective yesterday on three days' rest.

NBC recruited a former Friends producer to take over on Cursed after its co-creators left with bad feelings. New writers were brought on, the show changed its name from The Steven Weber Show and a handful of episodes already filmed were thrown out.
First-time fall TV shows experiencing problems
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A new fall television season is a lot like opening day in baseball. Some new television series seem to start their runs with two strikes against them.
The original producer leaves the series, miffed at the network's meddling. Half the cast is fired. The show changes its setting, or its title. Writers doctor the script.
The executive producer of Fox's Freakylinks left, citing creative differences, after he was ordered to inject more levity into the dark drama.
This year, the red flags are flying over four shows in particular.
NBC's The Michael Richards Show has received a complete makeover. After NBC discovered that the former Kramer on Seinfeld had trouble carrying a series on his own, it beefed up the cast with the addition of actors William Devane, Amy Farrington and Tim Meadows. Now, like Seinfeld, it's more of an ensemble.
Normal, Ohio features John Goodman as a middle-aged divorced man who comes out of the closet as gay. It was originally set in Los Angeles co-starring Anthony LaPaglia. But LaPaglia was axed, the changed settings to middle America and now it is more of a family comedy than originally envi-
sloned. Oh, and the title was changed from *Don't Ask*.
It's possible for a series to work through the bad times. The pilot for the current critical and commercial favorite Buffy, the Vampire Slayer was thrown out and some of the actors recast before the show got on the air, said Gail Berman, Fox's entertainment chief, who was in charge of Buffy when she ran Regency Television.
Every one of the shows she's been involved with has been revamped to some extent in the early days, she said.
"These are situations that have gone on always," Berman said. "It's just that we hear more about it because everybody is looking for a story."
There are few things more frustrating — and panic-inducing — to a network executive than the realization that a concept that looked good on paper isn't working on tape.
The Michael Richard's Show is "300 percent better" because of the extra work put in, said Garth Ancier, NBC entertainment president.
"I think it's going to be a decent "i" show," he said. "Decent to good. The most important thing is to put the best show on the air for the public to see. The last thing you want to do is go on the 'a' and say, 'Only kidding. We're going to go away for four weeks and do it differently."
The proliferation of choices for viewers means that a series has to be special to work. Ancier said.
"They can't just be good," he said.
"We're way beyond the period when
'Hello, Larry' was good enough to be
on the air."

Sloppy style mars Stallone's revised drama
The Associated Press
The credits for Sylvester Stallone's new movie Get Carter list three producers, three co-producers, six executive producers and one associate producer.
So what do these high-paid people do? Who's minding the store? How does a numbing mishmash of a movie like this get made?
This is the third time around for Get Carter. Adapted from Ted Lewis' novel Jack's Return Home, it first resulted in a smart, touching 1970 British melodrama directed by Mike Hodges and starring Michael Caine. Two years later it was converted to a blaxploitation film, Hit Man, with Bernie Casey and Pamela Grier.
The latest version opens with Stallone beating up a helpless man who failed to pay off his debt to a Vegas casino. He is a hired enforcer, though he prefers to call himself a "financial adjuster." He tells his victim: "My name is Jack Carter, and you don't want to know me."
By the end of the movie, the audience doesn't want to know him either, though he is on the screen most of the time. He might as well be the Man with No Name, who bursts in and out of people's lives, often leaving them disabled.
Carter has a mission. His brother, whom he hasn't seen in five years, has died in a Seattle car accident, reportedly having driven drunk. Carter needs to know more, so he leaves Las Vegas for Seattle, where most of the action takes place (though of course, because of money matters, the movie was shot in Vancouver). He travels by train, since his hardware wouldn't pass pre-flight inspection.
Arriving in Seattle (Vancouver), Carter attends his brother's funeral and is rebuffed by the widow (Miranda Richardson) for his long neglect. His niece (Rachel Leigh Cooke) is not much help either. He starts sniffing around the city and encounters an underworld type and old acquaintance (Mickey Rourke), who has entered the Internet world with a porno dot.com.
All of this might have made for passable melodrama if the plot had been presented in an understandable manner. But David McKenna's script seems like an unconnected series of vignettes, and the dialogue is standard tough guy with abundant expletives.
Much of the film's failure must be attributed to the director, Stephen Kay, whose only other feature was the forgettable The Last Time I Committed Suicide. Like many new directors, he seems determined to put his directorial imprint on the film. The result is quick cuts, slow motion, white flashes and other techniques long ago discarded. The excitement of two lengthy car chases is deadened by split-second editing, close-ups and other distractions.
actions.
Stallone has been a long time gone from the screen, and Get Carter is no way to get back in the flow. With a trimmed goatee, dark glasses and classy suits, he makes an impressive presence, as always. Happily, he has three more projects in the works, so maybe one will connect.

Events teach risks of abusing alcohol
Bv Melissa Davis
Kansan staff writer
Keith VanHorn, Wichita senior, likes to have fun, but he doesn't need to drink to have a good time.
VanHorn, McCollum Hall president, is in charge of Club Mac, a Thursday-night event at McCollum that offers nonalcoholic beverages and dance music. Club Mac is part of the University of Kansas Alcohol Awareness Week, which began yesterday and is dedicated to educating and informing students about alcohol.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said this week's events were important because alcohol was prevalent on campus.
"Without a doubt, alcohol is the most common drug on campus," he said. "And we see more bad trips from alcohol than any other drug."
Rock said alcohol could have adverse effects on the body. It can impair functions such as alertness, coordination and judgment, he said.
And students who drink irresponsibly can cause problems for those around them, Rock said.
"If you look at things that take students' lives and things that occur or assaults and altercations, you can start to get a picture of what a problem alcohol is," he said.
Rock said Watkins had seen numerous patients who were sick or injured because of excessive drinking. Problems have ranged from students who were vomiting or were dehydrated to students who were asking for emergency contraception, treatment for sexually transmitted diseases or broken and sprained bones. Students also have come

in with sunburns because they drank too much and passed out in the sun, he said.
Rock said that many students drank too much to relax but that the consequences of such a practice far outweighed the benefits. He said long-term alcohol abuse could lead to stress and anxiety related to poor academic performance.
"If you think about all the potential risks that open one up to allow judgment to become impaired, it isn't worth the effort of drinking." Rock said.
VanHorn said Alcohol Awareness Week was a reminder to people who don't often think about the consequences of their drinking habits.
"I don't think some people know the implications of their drinking," he said. "They think short-term, but they don't think long-term."
He said this week's activities were intended to raise awareness on campus about the effects of alcohol abuse.
"You definitely can have fun without alcohol," VanHorn said. "This week is a great example of how you can do that by getting together with friends and having a good time."

Agents continue to issue citations
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Alcohol Beverage Control agents issued 16 citations for minors in possession of alcohol during the weekend in Lawrence.
Scott Holeman, communications director for the Kansas Department of Revenue, said agents visited 16 bars and 18 liquor stores in the area, and three-fourths of the citations were given at catered events and bars.
Brett Logan, Olathe graduate student who is of age to purchase alcohol, was asked for identification this weekend while buying rum at a liquor store.
"After the agent checked my ID, he asked how old I was, scanned the ID through his card scanner and said 'thanks.'" Logan said.
Although Logan did not receive a citation, Holeman said ABC agents could stop anyone, anywhere, at any time.
"If they believe someone is underage and breaking the law, they can ask to see ID." Holeman said. "It is reasonable to ask someone for ID."
He said if someone refused to show identification, it automatically provoked reasonable suspicion. The person then
can be retained, and it could lead to an arrest.
A case now is awaiting decision in the Kansas Supreme Court on whether agents can force someone to show identification.
In the case, KU student David L. Pritchett, then 19 years old, was asked for identification at a catered party in August 1999. Pritchett told an officer he did not have his identification and was leaving the party, said Pritchett's attorney, Donald Strole. But the officer said he would hold Pritchett until his identity was determined.
The Kansas Supreme Court heard the case, and a ruling is expected in about three weeks.
Strole argued that Pritchett's young appearance was not enough for an ABC agent to detain him.
Holeman said the ABC continued to operate the same as usual — according to the law — as the case waited for a ruling.
Officers tend to look for cues in deciding who to stop, Holeman said, such as how a person carries himself and if a person seems to avoid an agent. He said agents also noted if a person did not make eye contact while talking to an agent.

Parking department meets goal for game
By Rob Pazelli
Garage fills 818 spaces makes $10,680 Saturday
by Kyle Pazzi
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The KU Parking Department met its goal of selling all 818 spaces in the new east garage during Saturday's Kansas-Kansas State football game.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said the department made approximately $10,680 for the weekend.
which brought many K-State fans to Lawrence.
The parking department hoped that by charging $10 for football parking per game, along with a garage toll of $1 per hour, it would help pay for the garage. The department must pay close to $1 million a year during a 15-year period to pay for the revenue bond it bought for the garage.
"K-State came and took over everything," Hultine said "I know from noon to game time there was a steady stream of traffic across campus."
Hultine said even though the department had a big day Saturday, it was not expecting the same size crowd for Kansas' final three home games.
"Parking may not be able to make the payment based on just garage income," Hutine said.
Generally, the parking department gets most of its revenue from permits, tickets, meters and parking for events.
Don Kearns, director of parking, said if the department didn't have the revenue to pay for the garage now, it would cut into the $300,000 set aside for capital improvements rather than raise fines or rates.
"We were planning on improving Lewis (Hall) lot next summer," Kearns said. "But we'll know by the first of the year if we need that money."
In terms of fines, Kearns said that the parking budget committee of the parking board looked at the financial picture to determine if fines needed to be raised next year, but that it was ultimately up to Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
"The chancellor has the final decision on rates, changes,
everything," Kearns said.

Kansas places top nationally for technology
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Advances in Internet and computer services at the University of Kansas have helped Kansas to a top national ranking in higher education technology.
The nine universities governed by the Kansas Board of Regents tied for first place with public universities in South Dakota in a poll by Government Technology magazine. The two states each received a perfect score on a 100-point evaluation.
Marlu Goodyear, vice chancellor for information services, prepared a report on technology use at Kansas universities that was evaluated by the magazine. She said KU services such as online access to class schedules and grades contributed to the ranking.
Other factors were the speed of the "backbone" network that connects Internet services among buildings on campus, as well as the new payroll and financing software programs being used in administration.
The magazine also commended the University's online courses and resources such as Web Course in a Box, which faculty have used to provide course syllabi, homework and discussion questions via the Internet. That service has since been succeeded by the Blackboard server, which links to more than 1,000 courses on campus through http://courseware.ukans.edu.
"They were impressed not only with what we had, but with the way we implemented it." Goodyear said. "We did it at a much lower cost than many other universities."
A KU Medical Center database with information on the practices of Kansas health professionals also earned high marks.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in a written statement that the ranking indicated the University's dedication to technological methods for improving education.
"The survey reaffirms KU's commitment to being a leader in information technology for the state of Kansas, the greater Kansas City area and the region," he said.
State officials accepted the award at a ceremony two weeks ago in Baltimore.
Arizona, Montana, Utah, Washington and Alaska tied for second place with 93.3 points.
States that are home to other Big 12 Conference universities landed further down the list. Nebraska and Texas were among seven states that tied for 17th with 73.3 points. Missouri came in 24th with 66.7, and Oklahoma was No. 42 with 40 points.
The polls' results are published in the current issue of the magazine. Overall, the Kansas state government finished second in information technology.

Conference to focus on children's education
The annual conference of the Kansas Association for the Education of Young Children will be Saturday in the Kansas Union, with additional activities in Smith and Fraser halls.
The featured speakers for the conference include KU faculty and other child care providers.
Alita York Cooper, professor emeritus in the department of human development and family life, said she encouraged students with majors that dealt with human services such as sociology, education or nursing to attend the conference. She said the conference would deal primarily with children from infancy through 8 years old.
"Hands-On Science," a preconference workshop, will be at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Burge Union. The workshop will conclude with a tour of the University's new $3.3 million Hilltop Child Development Center.
Parking for the workshop will be available at the Burge Union and the Hilltop Child Development Center.

Cancer research group given $9.9 million grant
The National Institute of Health has awarded a $9.9 million Center of Biochemical Research Excellence grant to a cancer research group that will be led by KU scientists.
The five-year grant will join researchers from the University of Kansas, the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas State University and Emporia State University to form a Center for Cancer Experimental Therapeutics.
The COBRE grant will fund the cancer research efforts of junior faculty members from each institution.
Lester Mitscher, distinguished professor of medicinal chemistry, said the grant money was a tremendous aid for the researchers building their expertise through the project.
"Having this money at a critical
stage is extremely valuable," said Mitscher, who will serve as a mentor. "In addition, it gives them a chance to interact with a variety of senior faculty; the networking and collaboration can be very useful in that sense."

The group of 19 scientists will conduct research through five projects dealing with lung cancer, ovarian cancer, a strain of childhood leukemia, tumor growth and methods to improve the delivery of anti-cancer drugs.

Space shuttle launch delayed again to today
NATION
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Gusty wind forced NASA to call off last night's planned launch of space shuttle Discovery on a space station construction mission.
The flight was already four days late because of mechanical problems. Launch managers said they would try again today, even though wind weather could still be a problem.
Discovery's seven astronauts will attach two new segments to the space station: a gyrder-like truss that holds motion-control gyroscopes and antennas and a shuttle docking port. Four walkaleks are planned on four consecutive days.

Monthlong event celebrates Hispanic-American culture
By Leita Schultes
writer @kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
The past few weeks provided many Hispanic-American students an opportunity to demonstrate their culture as part of Hispanic Heritage Month.
The events will come to a close this week.
The celebration started Sept. 15, said Gloria Flores, associate director of the Freshman Sophomore Advising Center and staff adviser for the Hispanic American Leadership Organization.
It starts midmonth because most Latin-American countries celebrate their independence on Sept. 15 or 16, she said. Because the date symbolizes independence, it also has become symbolic in promoting the Hispanic culture.
Alexander Morales, Kansas City, Mo., senior, helped plan the month's activities.
"It's really a celebration of where we're at, what we're doing," he said. Morales said celebrating culture and diversity provided the entire campus with an opportunity to learn what it meant to Hispanic. A Fashion Finale will hit the run.
A Fashion Finale will hit the run way at 7 p.m. Thursday at the
Kansas Union Ballroom. Mica Rosales, Olathe senior and event organizer, said the goal was to mix traditional fashions with contemporary styles and showcase the beauty of Latin women.
Along with the fashion show, 10 dancers with the Ballet Folklorico of Topeka will perform.
An art show sponsored by the Hispanic American Leadership Organization also is new this year, and Morales said about 10 Hispanic artists displayed their work at the Student Union Activities Gallery in the Kansas Union. The display will continue until Friday, Oct. 20.
Other activities were repeats from past years. Flores said Latino literature readings on Wescoe Beach had been part of the celebration for several years. Other activities included potlucks, making traditional Hispanic crafts at the organization's meetings and movie showings such as Stand and Deliver.
Morales said he thought event participation had been good, but Rosales said she thought more publicity of Hispanic Heritage Month could have increased participation. For example, posters advertising the events were posted late, she said.
HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH
The awareness month will end
Make Mexican Sugar Skulls to celebrate the Day of the Dead: 6 p.m. today at the Pioneer Room in the Burge Union.
Fashion Finale: A Night of Latin Beauty at the Kansas Union Ballroom: 7 p.m. Thursday at the Kansas Union Ballroom
Community service with Habitat for Humanity: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Latino Cultural Art Show, all day until Friday, Oct. 20, at the Student Union Activities Gallery in the Kansas Union.
Call the office of Multicultural Affairs at 864-4351 with questions
Sunday, but Flores said students still would have a chance to learn about Hispanic culture.
"We're trying to balance our Hispanic heritage activities throughout the year," she said, adding that the month provided an emphasis, but not an end to recognizing different cultures.

City raises downtown trash issue
Complaints about trash along Massachusetts Street have the sidewalk vending window of Pyramid Pizza under scrutiny from the city.
By Matt Merkel-Hess
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Pyramid Pizza, located inside Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St., opened the window about two years ago, said Kathryn Dodson, who owns the business with her husband Mark.
She said without the outside window, they would not be able to keep the business open.
"Eighty percent of our sales are through the outdoor window," she said. "It turned out to be an incredible success — that's why we keep that business open over there."
Dodson, who works at the Massachusetts Street location on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, said she made sure the sidewalk in front of the store was cleaned when the establishment closed at 2:30 a.m. In addition to cleaning up pizza plates, she said she often picked up beer bottles, cups and litter
She said Pyramid brought its trash cans inside at night, but a permanent city trash can could be used by the people who were usually still hanging around after 2:20 a m
from other businesses.
"I can't force kids to use the trash after we leave," she said. "I say on customers to help me out a little bit. It common deceynity not to litter, but I can't force them. There's not a lot of control after everything is closed."
Kennedy said the city permitted the outside dining/vending area with the understanding that the business would keep the area clean.
Marty Kennedy, city commissioner, said the issue was raised when upon review of the file for sidewalk dining, the city discovered the business had not provided a copy of the Kansas Food Service Establishment License, proof of insurance or the $147 fee for 1999 to 2000.
"We're probably just going to visit with them to see how they could assist the city and other businesses in keeping our downtown clean and keep plizza plates off the streets," he said. "We've had some problems with that."
CITY COMMISSION
Edited by Casey Franklin
6:35 tonight
City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St.
The commission will receive a staff report concerning the sidewalk-dining license for Fatso's and Pyramid Pizza, 1016 Massachusetts St. The city has received complaints about trash in front of the business.
A report on traffic control on Louisiana Street will be presented. The report contains a five-year phased plan that the commission could follow, which includes building medians, roundabouts and additional sidewalks. Both the
Traffic Safety Commission and the Planning Commission said they felt implementation of the whole plan was premature. The Planning Commission made no formal recommendations, but the Traffic Safety Commission recommended implementing phases one and two, which would mean the additions of a sidewalk between Parkhill Terrace and Eighteenth Street, and a roundabout at 27th Terrace and Louisiana Street

Perspective Third parties deserve more recognition
The existence of a multiparty democracy only helps solidify U.S. politics. Many of us may not support Ralph Nader, Pat Buchanan or any of the micro-candidates such as John Hagelin, Harry Browne or Howard Phillips, but we need to support the opening of the system to all parties.
In most of Europe and Latin America, we see so many political parties that we can barely distinguish their platforms. Here it's just the opposite. We see two main candidates with totally different and contrasting projects.
We can't choose anyone with realistic chances of winning and who has some democratic and some republican values. It's either one or the other. It's either the
donkey or the elephant. No other animals are allowed into this private zoo that's American politics. How about someone who supports abortion and the privatization of Social Security? Maybe a candidate who wants to bolster Medicare and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from abroad?
The candidates running with a minor party ticket may have some of the weirdest ideas I have ever
Cassio Furtado columnist
gonion@kansan.com
heard, but at the same time they make us think about issues that Al Gore and George W. Bush neglect. Some third-party candidates know that their ideas are not going to be accepted by the majority of the public because some ideas are radical. But at least they make us aware of many facets of the U.S. government we wouldn't otherwise be aware of.
Last Monday, just one day before the Bush vs. Gore debate, both Nader and Buchanan were on CNN's Larry King Live.
Nader then admitted what we already know: that he will lose. He said he was running to make a stand. He wants to extend the ideas of his Green Party to more voters, and unlike some analysts suppose, Nader is not stealing many votes from Gore. People who will vote for him wouldn't vote at all if he chose not to run.
Buchanan is a totally different case. He didn't choose to run because he wants the American people to be aware of some issues or anything of that sort. Let's face it: The guy is running because he can't live without being in the spotlight.
As you know, both Nader and Buchanan weren't able to join the debates because the bipartisan Commission on Presidential Debates set the standard of public interest for the candidates to be 15 percent. This commission is composed of members of both Democratic and Republican parties. Don't you think that's unfair that a commission chaired by the two parties decides if any third-party candidate will be allowed to participate? That needs to change.
Earlier this week I signed a petition proposed by the Green Party so that it can be recognized statewide. I will sign any other party's, even if I do not agree with its ideas. That's not the point. The point is allowing all parties to be part of the process.
Look back eight years and compare the structure third parties had with today's. We all benefit from being exposed to more ideas. This logic goes back to German philosopher Georg Hegel, who advocated that we all benefit from the confrontation of ideas, having a thesis and an antithesis, leading to a synthesis.
The next president won't be from the Green Party, the Reform Party, the Natural Law Party, the Libertarian Party, the Constitution Party or from any other third party. The next president will be Democrat or Republican.
That's just logical and predictable. Third parties still have a long way to go before they can be real challengers to Democrats and Republicans.
What's at stake today is not this year's election, but the future of the entire political system.

Perspective
RU-486 helps control expanding population
Holy contraceptives, Batgirl! The FDA's approved an abortion pill! What's next, a pill that kills fully grown
What's next—a pill that kills fully grown people? Open trade in weapons of mass destruction? One might almost think the human race was inherently self-destructive ... but let's retread.
We're talking controlled propagation of the species, not modern warfare.
Yes, we numans have a problem — ourselves. We just seem to be too many. By way of experiment, I once stared out my airplane window for the entirety of a nighttime flight from Houston to Portland, Ore. I was waiting for a vista of blackness to open up beneath me, a scene where no human activity was visible. It never happened. Approximately
2,000 miles of the United States' more unpopulated terrain was pock-marked with clusters of artificial light, as big as Dallas and as small as a Rocky Mountain truck stop.
It was beautiful and yet frightening. What other species can compare with the handprint humanity has left on this planet? Human civilization is the most visible faunal aspect of the earth's topography, and we ain't a very pretty one at that. Yet we go forth and multiply.

Contraception is a wonderful thing. It means we can
Ramona
DeNies
columnist
opinion@kansan.com
I felt rather choked up over the controversy this latest debacle in contraceptive history has stirred up. When language is used to inflame, the wider picture gets lost, and that is exactly what many fail to recognize in the abortion debate. Are we talking about quality or sheer quantity, and for whom do we presume to speak on "moral grounds"? Embryos? Women? Future generations? Our supposed constituencies?
decide whether we can personally support an addition to the human population. Individually, we can slow the growth rate of the human population by controlling pregnancy. And need I reiterate just how vastly beneficial effective control of pregnancy has been for women in larger schemas?
And speaking of moral grounds, a recent editorial in the Vatican newspaper, thought to reflect the beliefs of Pope John Paul II, refers to the pill as "the pill of Cain: the monster that cynically kills its brothers."
"Oftentimes," according to Steve Sanborn, representative for the American Life League, "women will be expelling their own children in their own living room or their own bathroom and sitting there faced with that baby. I can't imagine what kind of 'convenience' that's going to be for them."
Scott Weinberg, representative for the American Life League, states, "We have the FDA involved in abortion providing. We have the Supreme Court effectively legalizing infanticide. I mean, for crying out loud, what is going on in America?"
Such statements attempt to make the personal decision of child-bearing and rearing a public obligation upon insemination. In the United States, such public control over the functions of a woman's body can be seen as the antithesis of democracy. If the ability to control that most fundamental feature of a woman's body — her reproductive ability — is removed, women will be left with very little personal autonomy.
In late 1988, Rousseau Uclaf, the pharmaceutical company responsible for RU-486, withdrew the drug from the French market where it made its debut because of death threats several members of its personnel had received. The French government soon after mandated the rerelease of the drug, calling RU-486 "the moral property of women, not just the property of the drug company."
Perhaps we should remember that contraception in its many manifestations is as old a practice as cultural landscaping, with snakeskin condoms, pessaries of acacia and honey or the all-too-recent wooden diaphragms of Victorian society — later banned as implements of torture. Aren't we lucky that contraception has achieved unprecedented levels of efficacy, safety and comfort at the point when we need it the most? ___
Morality sure is a sticky issue. All I know for sure is that from Houston to the shining sea of Portland, Ore., humanity has scarred the earth. Does anyone actually want to test the premise of dynamic equilibrium on a human scale?

Editorial
Holiday offensive, inaccurate
Columbus Day shouldn't be celebrated in a society of diverse perspectives.
We should stop recognizing Columbus Day as a national holiday. Not only is the holiday historically inaccurate, but it also offends a large number of indigenous people.
Columbus hit the Bahamas on Oct. 12, 1492, and swore to his dying day that he'd reached the East Indies. The Columbian Order began to officially celebrate his blunder in 1792 and, 100 years later, President Harrison made the first Monday in October a federal holiday.
The Columbian Order celebrated Columbus as the discoverer of America even though it was Amerigo Vespucci who really opened both continents up to Europe. Celebrating Columbus for discovering the New World is like celebrating the Apollo 13 mission for discovering the moon — both just got close.
After Columbus and Vespucci landed. Europeans and the natives clashed. That's why not everyone is elated by Columbus Day. For some, the day symbolizes a great sense of pride, especially among the Italian-American population, but for others it symbolizes being conquered by foreign invaders.
Since 1991, Berkeley, Calif., has celebrated Indigenous Peoples Day to raise awareness of the different cultural perspectives on this issue. Others propose a simple Discoverers Day, such as the one held in Hawaii, where Hawaiians recognize the triumph of Europeans entering this hemisphere.
But even a Discoverers Day is a bad idea. When our country says, "Today we celebrate the discovery of America," we don't mean the native people crossing the Bering Straight. Rather we refer to the point when Europeans came, thus suggesting the place was undiscovered and somehow unused until they got here.
The landing of Europeans in America is not a cause for great celebration, not for an enlightened society like ours. It is just something that happened, with good and bad effects. It is worth our sober consideration but not worth closing down the banks.

Three win Nobel in medicine
The Associated Press
Two Americans and a Swede won the Nobel Prize in medicine yesterday for discoveries about how brain cells communicate — research that laid the groundwork for Prozac and other drugs for depression and Parkinson's disease.
Arvid Carlsson, Paul Greengard and Eric Kandel will share the $915,000 prize for pioneering work that could lead to new treatments for schizophrenia. Alzheimer's disease, addiction and other mental disorders.
"The payoffs are potentially enormous." said Dr. Stephen Hyman, director of the National Institute of Mental Health.
Carlsson, 77, is with the University of Goteborg in Sweden. Greengard, 74, is with Rockefeller University in New York, and Kandel, 70, is an Austrian-born U.S. citizen at
Columbia University in New York.
They illuminated a key type of communication — called "slow synaptic transmission" — in which chemical messengers carry signals from one brain cell to another. The work has been crucial for understanding how the brain works and how diseases can arise when the system goes wrong.
The three winners worked largely independently.
Carlsson was honored for work in the late 1950s that showed a substance called dopamine was a key messenger between brain cells. He realized the implication for Parkinson's disease, which later was shown to result from a dopamine deficiency in part of the brain.
Greengard was honored for showing how brain cells reacted to the arrival of dopamine and other chemical messengers.
ON THE NET
Nobel Prize site: http://www.nobel.se
Kandel's work focused on the biology of learning and memory. It demonstrated that changes at synapses — the places where chemical messengers pass between brain cells — were crucial in forming memories.
The winners of the prizes for physics and chemistry will be announced today, with the economics prize tomorrow and the peace prize Friday. No date has been set for the literature prize.
The awards will presented Sunday, Dec. 10, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death in 1896. The Swedish industrialist and inventor of dynamite established the prizes in his will.
RAMALLA, West Bank — Amid the violence that has swept the West Bank and Gaza Strip, many Palestinians are expressing bitterness toward the United States — sentiments that could complicate the American bid to broker a Mideast peace.
Israel is the primary target of Palestinian fury about the clashes that have left dozens dead, most of them Palestinians. But the United States, as Israel's closest ally, is seen by many Palestinianians as bearing a share of responsibility for the methods Israel has used to try to quell the violence.
The Associated Press
Israel has said its tactics were necessary. Israeli officials point out that Israeli military outposts have come under attack from enormous mobs, and that Palestinian gunmen sometimes use rock-throwing rioters as cover.

Surveys omit prostitution
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — For years scientists have been puzzled about why surveys show that the overall population of men has more sex partners than does the women's population. It should come out even.
"Each new partner for a man is also a new partner for a woman," said Devon D. Brewer of the University of Washington. "So, in reality, it must be equal — by definition."
The General Social Surveys, conducted by the University of Chicago, and the National Health and Social Life Survey, financed by private foundations, found that men were claiming up to 74 percent more partners than women.
Brewer said social scientists suggested one of two basic problems — survey subjects were lying, or there was some fundamental flaw in the way the data was being collected.

Clashes blamed on U.S.
But a study Brewer co-authored in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, which appears today, says the biggest cause of the discrepancy is that the surveys ignored the professionals.
Brewer said the national surveys sought answers from people who lived in "households" and left out dwellings where prostitutes were more apt to be. To find people in the households, the surveyors rang doorbells during times when most prostitutes are working. Brewer said.
From Brewer's studies, it was found that there are about 23 prostitutes for every 100,000 people in American, and the average prostitute had 694 male partners a year.

Until yesterday.
If there is a panic button available to the Kansas football team, the Jayhawks sure hadn't acted like they needed to reach out for it.
After an a typical Monday practice, Kansas coach Terry Allen said that his team had a "whole new attitude," and that the "slate is clean." Allen also said that there would be some changes this week as to how Kansas prepped for its Saturday game at Missouri. Some position changes are possible. he said.
No matter what the changes are, it would seem that if the Jayhawks have any plans of playing in a postseason bowl game, winning Saturday at Missouri is a must. With a record of 23, the Jayhawks need four more wins to qualify for the postseason.
"We still have six games left," said quarterback Dylan Smith. "We just have to win four."
Kansas, of course, can afford to lose two games. But Missouri does not appear to be one of those games. After Missouri, the Jayhawks still must play at Nebraska and
Iowa State. Mix in home games with Colorado, Texas Tech and Texas, and it appears that Kansas cannot delay winning anymore.
Kansas is 1-17 in road games under fourth-year coach Allen.
"There's probably a little bit more pressure since we didn't get the other two road games," Smith said, referring to losses this season at Southern Methodist and at Oklahoma.
Allen expressed more dis appointment about losing at home to Kansas State than he did after the loss at Oklahoma.
In response, the Jayhawks practiced yesterday. Typically they are given Monday off, but Allen said the team needed the extra time to prepare for Missouri.
The extra day off might have helped convalesse wounds from Saturday's 52-13 loss at home to K-State. Smith's ribs and back still hurt from a sack he took on the game's third play, he said.
Running back David Winbush is recovering after he was tackled and the ball was slammed into his throat.
"I think we're both doing better." Smith said.
Missouri is without its quarterback, Kirk Farmer, for the rest of the season because of a broken collarbone. Smith said there was no more pressure to defeat Missouri for any other reason than it's the Tigers.
Smith said. "It doesn't matter if they're ranked or not. That makes it an important game for us."
"This is a rivalry game."
In addition to the extra practice time, players were in meetings until 7 p.m. The music was not on in the locker room. It was a much
quieter atmosphere than had been heard after previous practices.
Yesterday was Columbus Day.
In honor, the Jayhawks have started exploring for answers.

Club runners escape monotony

The idea that started the Kansas Running and Jogging Club came from students taking part in a onecredit, Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences course titled 10K Marathon.

A new club at the University of Kansas has provided runners and joggers with some competitiveness as well as a daily outlet from the stress that college life can present.
Michael Rossler, St. Louis graduate student, and Patrick Brady, Overland Park sophomore, are co-founders of the Running and Jogging Club, which meets daily outside of Robinson Center.
While taking the marathon elective course, Rossler and Brady said they thought about the many people running by themselves on campus.
"It's better to work out with others," Brady said. "Besides, it's boring to run by yourself."
Although the club, which typically runs between 3-7 miles, now is recreational, Rossler said he was considering several events for members of the group to compete in.
"We might run at the 'Boulder Boulder' in Colorado or the St. Patrick's Day Marathon in Manhattan, Kan." Rossler said.
While several of the group's members are serious and intense runners, the group would like to see more of a turnout from the jogging portion of the club.
"People often get scared away because they think some of the club's members are faster than them," Rossler said. "There is no ability needed to join this group."
On most days, the club splits into different groups based on how much and at what speed the individuals want to run. Many of the competitive runners were cross-country and track athletes in high school.
Preethi Chandrasekharan, Wichita sophomore, and Jason Shimanek, Wichita freshman, were cross-country and track competitors at Wichita's Northwest
High School.
Chandrasekharan said she was
happy with the group's consistency.
"It is cool that there will be a group to run with every day," Chandrasekharan said.
Kansas misses one recruit, draws four others for Late Night
Bv Michael Riaa
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Sometimes in the crazy game of recruiting, the expected actually does happen.
Such is the case with Dennis Latimore, a 6-foot-8 forward from Halstead. Since the Jayhawks landed Leavenworth's Wayne Simien, it was widely rumored that Latimore would commit to Arizona.
Yesterday, those rumors became truth.
Latinimore told Rob Matera of All-Star Report that he had given his verbal commitment to the Wildcats and coach Lute Olson. Even though Latimore won't visit the Arizona campus until Friday for Midnight Madness, the Wildcats' version of Late Night, he wanted to end the speculation early.
Latinmore — who lived in Arizona until his sophomore year of high school — also considered Kansas, Stanford and UCLA.
Halstead coach Mark Fox told the Arizona Daily Star that Latimore would be a huge asset for the Wildcats.
"He's got the athletic ability to play out on the wing by the time he's a junior or a senior there," Fox told the Star. "The biggest thing that impresses me is his athletic ability for his size and his ability to face the basket."
Latinore's commitment was a giant leap for Arizona but only a small step backward for Kansas. The true test for the Jayhawk recruiting season comes Friday, when high school players Aaron Miles, Michael Lee, Jamal Sampson and Josh Childress plan to attend Late Night with Roy Williams.
As far as that group of recruits is concerned, Sampson appears to be the one least likely to attend Kansas. Sampson, a 6-10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., told The Hartford Courant that he still was considering Connecticut, St. Louis and California-Berkeley.
Sampson visited Cal last week.
"Cal was cool," Samson told the Courant. "It was a good trip, about what I expected. But I liked all the trips I took, and now I have to reevaluate everything, visit Kansas, and go from there."
Two of Sampson's friends — Isaiah Fox and Ricky Porter both are considering playing for the Golden Bears. Still, Sampson said their decisions would have
RECRUITING UPDATE
Kansas solid commitments:
Wayne Simien, 6-8 F,
Levenworth
**Kansas targeted recruits:** Josh Childress, 6-6 F, Lakewood, Calif. Chuck Hayes, 6-6 F, Modesta, Calif. Michael Lee, 6-2 G, Portland, Ore. Aaron Milis, 6-0 G, Portland, Ore. Jamal Sampson, 5-10 C, Santa Ann, Calif.
**Kansas lost recruits:** Alan Anderson, 6-5 F, Minneapolis, Minn. (Michigan St); Cedric Bozeman, 6-6 G, Santa Ana, Calif. (UCIA); Errol Knight, 6-5 G, Seattle (Washington); Dennis Latimore, 6-8 F, Halstead (Arizona); David Lee, 6-8 F, St. Louis (Florida).
"It would be a good thing if we could play together, but I'm not going to let that affect my decision." Sampson said.
little bearing on where he goes.
Kansas reportedly leads for the services of Miles, a 6-0 point guard from Portland, Ore., and Lee, a 6-2 shooting guard, who also is Miles' teammate. Internet rumors have surfaced that both will give their verbal commitments to the Jayhawks this weekend, with Lee possibly taking a football scholarship.
Childress, a 6-6 forward from Lakewood, Calif., will reportedly choose between Kansas and Stanford with Arizona still a distant possibility.
The distance between mile marker 53 on I-70 and the bright lights of Allen Fieldhouse may seem like a sizable leap, but one junior college recruit is looking to make that jump.
Larry House, a 6-4 forward from Colby Community College, visited Lawrence for the Kansas State game along with several of his teammates.
House hasn't been offered a scholarship and is widely viewed as a "plan B" player if one of the Jayhawks' top recruits decides to head elsewhere.
Also grouped in plan B are guards Jamal Howard from Shawnee and Jeff Hawkins from Kansas City, Kan, who both also visited Kansas last weekend.
Senior guard Kenny Gregory is being treated for minor back snaps.
His practice time will be limited, but should recover by Nov. 2 for the season opener

Big 12 Conference names week's players
DALLAS — Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch, Oklahoma linebacker Rocky Calmus and defensive back J.T. Thatcher are the Big 12 Conference's players of the week
ference's players of the week.
Crouch earned his second offensive honor for gaining a careerhigh 302 yards of total offensive in the Commhusers' 49-27 victory against Iowa State. Crouch gained 138 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries and completed 7 of 17 passes for 164 yards and a touchdown.
Calmus earned defensive honors for the second time this year, in part for his 41-yard interception return during Oklahoma's 63-14 victory against Texas. Calmus also had four solo-tackles, two pass deflections and a sack.
Thatcher received his second consecutive weekly honor and his third of the season. He had three punt returns for 65 yards, including one of 53 yards, to earn special teams honors. Thatcher also had an interception and two tackles on Saturday.
Shoulder injury ends quarterback's season
STILLWATER, Okla. — Oklahoma State quarterback Tony Lindsay will miss the rest of the year due to a shoulder injury suffered during a pre-season scrimmage.
Lindsay had struggled with his passing in the first five games. The Cowboys have totaled just 23 points
in the past three games, all of them losses that have dropped OSU to 2-3 overall, 0-2 in the Big 12.
"That's not the Tony Lindsay I know and have been around," coach Bob Simmons said Monday. "I just think mentally it continued to wear on him."
Simmons said Lindsay apparently hurt the shoulder while making a tackle in a scrimmage Aug. 26. A doctor in Colorado will do the surgery in the next few weeks.
The injury continues a string of bad luck for Lindsay. A year ago, he injured a knee in the season opener and wound up playing in just six games.
Missouri, Iowa players recognized this week
Jansen, a senior from Sioux
Center, Iowa, accounted for 270 all-
purpose yards Saturday as No. 1-
ranked Northwest Missouri beat
Missouri West 46-27. He rushed
for 225 yards and two TDs in 30
carries, and caught three passes, one
for a touchdown.
OVERLAND PARK — Running back David Jansen, who scored three touchdowns for Northwest Missouri State, andake Willich, a Truman State linebacker who had eight tackles and an interception last weekend, have been named football players of the week in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association.
Wilrich, a sophomore from Grimes,
Iowa, had six solo tackles in Truman
State's 28-14 win against Central Missouri State. He stopped a late drive by Central Missouri when he forced a fumble after a pass reception at the Truman State 8 with about five minutes left in the game.
Westwood wins sixth tour event this season
VIRGINIA WATER, England — Lee Westwood dethroned Colin
Montgomerie at the World Match Play Championship. Now he's set to end Montgomerie's seven-year reign as Europe's top
KU golf
monev winner.
The sudden-death victory Monday was Westwood's sixth win on the European Tour this season. He made a 20-foot birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff to beat Montgomerie in a tournament that was continued a day because of heavy rain Sunday.
Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faido and Montgomerie are the only others to have won six European tour events in a season.
With three events to play,
Westwood has a chance to make
European history by winning at least
seven tour titles. He's also in strong
position to break Montgomerie's
stranglehold as Europe's No. 1
money-winner with $362,500.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 10).
Use your intuition at work this year for a tidy profit. Don't tell all you know or guess in October. Keep secrets in November. Somebody else reveals too much in December. A loved one brings a pleasant surprise in February. A coworker needs extra assistance in March. Compliments come from afar in June.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 4.
Confusion today involves your work. You may be anxious to get started, but don't jump the gun. New information could change the way you do the job or even the job you do. Take those phone calls personally. You want to know.
Taurus (April 20-Mav 20): Todav is a 7.
The best intentions in the world won't make up for common sense. Your friend has loads of the former and not much of the latter. You could spot a bad deal in the making, so speak up. Don't assume everybody is as savvy as you are.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Just when you thought things were settling down, something else flares up. The good news is there's a happy ending. The bad news is more work needs to be done first. Yes, it's only fair to get the one who made the mess to help clean it up.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is an 8.
Things are likely to turn upside down. Something that you thought wouldn't work will, and something that you thought would work won't. Luckily, love is on your side. With that going for you, who cares about that other stuff?
Today's worse for gambling than yesterday — in the morning, anyway. Stand pat until the dust clears. Real estate or items for your home could be a good deal, but you'll make the better deal by waiting.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 4.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You might find your forward movement thwarted, but don't give up. A recent difference of opinion may have shaken your confidence. Instead of worrying about who's right or wrong, find that kernel of valuable advice.
Libra (Sept; 23-Oct 22): Today is a 5.
Postpone travel plans until later. Ask your friend to visit you instead. You may have to work up to the last minute. It would be nice to relax with somebody you can talk freely with later — somebody who can keep a secret.
Scarpio (Oct, 23-Nov, 21); Today is a 7.
Somebody you care about might need a shoulder to cry on. You're great at that job. Your helpful advice ought to be right on target, too. This other person can't see the forest for the trees. For you, it's easy.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 4.
A lot of talk is going on, and you'll be tempted to participate. If you can control the urge, do so. Your better tactic is to find out what they know.
Things may not be as you thought they were. Stranger things have happened.
Capricorn (Dec, 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18); Today is a 5.
Capitron (Dec. 22-31, 1974). You could run every which way, trying to keep up with a tough schedule. Your communications network should work well, so use it. Call a friend who can call a friend. Networking is a lifesaves today.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today it's 6:30.
This isn't just a tough day for you; it's tough for everybody. Don't feel too sorry for yourself if you run short on funds. You still have plenty of love, and that's the more important commodity by a long shot.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Your biggest annoyances are the distractions. They could keep you from doing the most important thing. First figure out what that is. Then do it. After that, who cares? Actually, you may need the whole day to get it done.

Corporations pay millions for spots in Survivor sequel
The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Va. — Corporations that want to be part of the next edition of CBS-TV's smash television hit Survivor are paying big money for the privilege.
According to a report in yesterday's USA Today, Visa, General Motors and Anheuser-Busch are paying about $12 million — or roughly triple what they shelled out last time — for their advertisements on the show.
The price works out to more than $450,000 for a 30-second ad — comparable to the rate for such lucrative series as Friends and Monday Night Football.
CBS is looking to sell eight or nine total sponsorships, and USA Today says the openings could spark a bidding war.
Survivor: The Australian Outback is scheduled to premier after the Super Bowl, Sunday, Jan. 28. The network plans to use spots before and during the game to promote the first episode.
"For the first time, there may be as much hype for the show after the Super Bowl as the Super Bowl itself," said Joe Abruzzese, the network's president of ad sales.

Tuesday, October 10, 2000 Today's sports quiz answer is ash
Cunningham draws on past hardships for strength
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Nothing seems to come easy for Gunther Cunningham, the hard-driving Chiefs coach loved by players and puzzled over by fans.
There is an explanation for his outlook on life.
Born in postwar Germany, Cunningham grew up about a mile from the Dachau concentration camp. He once cut his foot on glass from a broken window there. Dachau was one of Hitler's deadliest camps from 1933 until it was liberated in 1945.
A childhood near such an awful place has a lot to do with his famous capacity for working himself to exhaustion.
"No doubt," he said. "I've gone through tough weeks every week in 54 years of life and 32 years of coaching. If you came from where I came from, you'd know what I'm talking about.
"You never take 'no' for an answer. If I took 'no' for an answer, I wouldn't be sitting here. I wouldn't have come to this country. I wouldn't have had a chance to
CHIEFS
go to college or any of those things." Cunningham, who never knew his father, was born into poverty in 1946 in Munich.
As he was growing up, Cunningham would hear people speak in hushed tones about the Holocaust. But the little boy did not begin to realize the magnitude of the crimes until he discovered pictures and stories that his grandmother had hidden in a drawer.
The memories still horrify him.
"I'm very conscious of it and ashamed of it" Cunningham said.
When he was 10 his mother married Garner Cunningham, an American soldier who moved his new family to Massachusetts. Barely able to speak English, Gunther never backed down from any kid who taunted him.
After graduating from Oregon, he began coaching there, starting a football
odyssey that included stops at Arkansas, Stanford, Baltimore Indianapolis and San Diego.
He came to Kansas City in 1995 to work under his old friend, defensive coordinator Dave Adolph.
"He promised he'd never leave," Cunningham said. "The night I signed my contract, he left for San Diego."
But then, finally, a break. Head coach Marty Schottenheimer retired after the 1998 season.
While awaiting a decision from Chiefs president Carl Peterson, Cunningham got a call from a well-meaning but mis-informed friend who said, "Gun, you're not going to get the job."
Crestfallen, Cunningham called the high school sweetheart he'd been married to for more than 30 years.
"Honey, we'll never have a shot at it," he told Rene.
He was wrong. On Jan. 22, 1999.
Cunningham was hired as head coach.
He went 9-7 last season, missing the playoffs and the AFC West title by one
"He's not going to tell a player one thing in the locker room and then go upstairs to a coaches' meeting and say something else. You know he'll never lie to you."
Eric Hicks defensive end for the Chiefs
victory, and is 3-2 so far this season, with his team enjoying its bye on Sunday.
Despite what Cunningham has gone through in his life, one of the cruelest blows of all came in February. His star linebacker and close friend Derrick Thomas died after a car wreck.
"Sometimes I still can't believe he's gone," Cunningham said. "He used to call me in the office at midnight and tell me I was working too hard."
Indeed. For example, from Monday night when the Chiefs came from behind to beat Seattle through late Wednesday afternoon when they ended practice, Cunningham slept a total of maybe four hours.
On the practice field, he'll be in a player's face one minute and give him a reassuring pat the next.
Win or lose, they all seem to have complete faith in him.
"I wouldn't want to play for anybody else," said defensive end Eric Hicks. "He's not going to tell a player one thing in the locker room and then go upstairs to a coaches' meeting and say something else. You know he'll never lie to you."
No matter how hard he works or how much he achieves, however, there still will be the kid who cut his foot on glass from Dachau and found those horrible pictures.
*Johnstown since 1993*
He seems to be on a mission.
"I need for what Gun does to be good," Cunningham said. "Whatever I do needs to be good. That's all I care about."

Students pitch ideas for new rec center
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Planners of the new student recreation center wanted to know what students thought the center should be like, but only about 10 students showed up last night to tell them.
The Organizations and Leadership Lecture Series sponsored a town hall meeting last night in Elsworth Hall for students to voice their opinions to the Recreation Center Program Planning Committee.
The discussion ranged from the type of equipment that students wanted to suggestions about landscape and design.
The development of a new recreation center started in April 1999 when the student body approved a referendum to construct a new building. In January, the Board of Regents approved the $17 million building and its location south of Watkins Memorial Health Center.
The Kansas Legislature in May approved the proposal, including the $15 student fee increase that went into effect this fall.
In July, the Ken Ebert Design Group of Manhattan was selected to design the building. Construction is set to begin this summer or next fall, and the building should be complete in Fall 2002.
The students who attended the meeting said they would prefer a more health club-style environment*
RECREATION CENTER
warner happened; In January, the Board of Regents approved a $17 million recreation center to be built south of Watkins Memorial Health Center. In May, the Kansas Legislature approved the project, and an architecture firm was selected in July.
What it means: Students paid $15 more in required fees this fall to pay for the building. Next fall, the fee increases to $34.
What's next? The Recreation Center Program Planning Committee will meet and begin designing and planning the building. Construction is tentatively set to begin this summer or next fall and be completed in Fall 2002.
than Robinson Gymnasium provided.
"What's lacking in Robinson is that you really can't relax there and sit back over a juice until you recover before going home," said Nathan Bliss, Lawrence junior. "If you're going to have it truly for students, then by God, have a section with a juice counter, where you can watch ESPN and play checkers if you want. That's a recreation center."
The consensus from the students was that space should be dedicated to free weights, cardiovascular machines and other exercise equipment. The machines in Robinson, they said, were inadequate.

Health center to receive flu vaccine late
Kansan staff writer
By Jennifer Valadez
As flu season approaches, a nationwide delay in distribution of flu vaccines has left Watkins Memorial Health Center without any of the vaccines.
"We're not sure when the shipment will be in," he said. "No one in town has received their ships either."
But Bill Smith, health educator at Watkins, said that although he was uncertain as to the vaccine's exact arrival date, it should arrive at the end of this month.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently issued a formal recommendation for health care providers to focus vaccination efforts on high risk individuals because of the delay.
Those considered at high risk include people older than 65, the chronically ill and health care providers who administer the shot.
Smith said he didn't know if the delayed shipment to the University of Kansas and the Lawrence community was the result of the CDC recommendation.
"I don't think that's the case," he said.
"They're trying to get the young vaccine distributed to as many providers as possible. Once we do get the vaccine, we'll schedule clinics to get them to the students. We're not sure if we're getting the full amount requested, either."
Smith said once the vaccine was available it would cost $5 for students.
he said that no cases of the flu had been reported on campus but urged students to take the necessary precautions. Although the shot is the best way to prevent contracting the flu, Smith said students should wash their hands regularly, avoid sharing items with others that could pass germs and avoid smoking and second-hand smoke. They should also cover their mouths when coughing and sneezing and avoid alcohol use.
Jesse Bobbett, El Dorado junior, said he had received his vaccination before coming to the University this year. He also said it was important that the current shortage be taken care of as soon as possible.
"Avoiding contact with others is kind of hard in the university environment when you're in classes with everybody," Smith said.
But he said steering clear of the flu could be difficult.
Smith said according to CDC reports, approximately 80 to 85 million doses were produced last year for distribution in the United States, and this year's numbers were uncertain.
"I definitely think it's important because it can be spread very easily," he said. "They need to do something about the shortage because there's going to be a lot of sick people."
"They will continually assess that as they progress through the season," Smith said.

Residents want 2-for-1 permits at Sunflower, Stouffer Place
By Rob Pazell
Trisha Kroll was frustrated because she and her husband were paying for two parking permits to park at Stouffer Place and Sunflower apartments.
She went door-to-door at the apartments with a petition, trying to gain support for what she thought was the only fair option for the nontraditional student families on a limited income who live there — two parking permits for the price of one.
"A lot of people that live here don't have incomes," she said. "It's a huge extra expense that doesn't seem necessary."
Kroll, president of the Stouffer Neighborhood Association and a student assistant for housing maintenance, has been trying for three years to convince the parking board to allow Stouffer/Sunflower residents to purchase two-for-one parking permits. A single permit costs $75. She presented a petition to the parking board at its first meeting Oct. 3.

"The parking department didn't feel we had much of a voice." Kroll said. "So we went around the neighborhood, presented a petition and sent it to parking."
student Senate passed a resolution Oct. 5, 1990 requesting two-for-one parking passes for married housing. The resolution said that requiring residents to buy two passes incurred unnecessary expenses and created a situation contrary to the mission of Stouffer Place and Sunflower apartments.
Kim Fuchs, Student Executive Committee chairwoman, said that because the resolution was nonbinding, the parking board wasn't required to make any changes.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said two-for-one permits had come up as an issue for both the 1979-1988 and 1988-1999 school years. She said it never got out of the rules committee because parking is self-supporting and it costs the same to make a space for each and every student.
Fuchs said that many students had approached Senate to inquire about the progress of the resolution, and that Senate would reiterate its support by writing another resolution. The parking department has the final say, however.
"Even though we feel that the parking department must do it, they don't have to," Fuchs said. "We can't make them do anything."
"There are students who would like it to happen," Fuchs said. "But ultimately, it's not our decision."
Morris Faiman, chairman for the parking rules committee, said the committee planned to discuss the resolution at its next meeting.
"It has ramifications across campus," Faiman said. "I can assure you it will be discussed, and something will be done."
"If the committee allowed that to go through, there's so many other arguments that people can make," Hultine said. "They just didn't want to set a precedent for giving free passes for the inability to pay."

International students watch election closely

More than six percent of students on campus won't be eligible to go to the polls this November. But they are just as interested in the political process as many of their voting peers.
They are the international students who come to the University of Kansas, immersed in a new culture under a new political system. And although they view campaigns and debates from the fringes, they do have opinions.

Some international students know more about the U.S. political system than their American peers, said Leonardo Villalon,
Frances Tan, a senior from Malaysia, agreed.
"I follow the political stuff." "Dan said. 'But you know what I can't do anything about it.'"
Villalon said international students,such as Tan could find campaigns different from their expectations.
"What frequently surprises international students is how little choice there is," Villalon said.
He said politicians in some foreign countries had very distinct platforms, while presidential candidates in the United States aimed for middle-ground policies that appealed to
Some students, though, just are happy to be in the United States during such a politically

the entire population.
"For us, I think it's more of a contest because your whole government is on the line," she said.
"That's a bit of disillusionment for some," he said.
Villalon said the power of money also surprised international students. They often don't realize that wealth helps a candidate win an election.
Kondwani Kankondo, a graduate student from Malawi, Africa, said he had been following the campaigns in order to feel competent as a journalist.
"To understand the people, you need to know what governs them, what drives their societies," he said.

Kankondo said the campaign had been relatively positivo this year, and he did not understand the reasons behind voter apathy, a common problem in the United States.
.
But in at least one way, Kankondo is like many other people in the United States the few weeks before the election: His main interest is who will win.

Senate meets tonight in McCollum Hall lobby
Daisy Hill residents will have easier access to Student Senate tonight because its meeting has been moved to McColum Hall.
Marion Marshall, student body vice president, said moving the meeting from the Kansas Union aimed to get more students involved and interested in Senate.
Marshall said tonight's meeting, which starts at 6:30 in McColum's lobby, would probably be the only Senate meeting outside the Kansas Union this semester. In the spring, he said, there would be one or two meetings at campus housing.

Kansas Union rally supports coming out
KU Queers and Allies will celebrate National Coming Out Day at the Kansas Union plaza from noon to 1 p.m. today.
"it's more of a recognition of coming out and what it means to the community," said Jeremy Wolff, speakers' bureau coordinator for Q&A.
The Douglas County AIDS Project will hand out condoms and information. Queer-friendly businesses will join the festivities. Henry's coffee shop will serve free coffee, and Lunaria Holistic Health Center will provide free massages.
Despite the name of the event, tomorrow isn't necessarily a day for members of the queer community to "come out" to their friends and family.

Foundation donates to young entrepreneurs
Students can apply for up to $250,000 to start their own business through the school of business.
The Rudd Foundation, a private organization set up by the Rudd family, has announced it will make $1 million available for student entrepreneurs at the University of Kansas, Kansas State and Wichita State.
The funding is available to all KU students, and students are invited to apply individually or in teams, said Sanjay Mishra, associate professor of business, who is coordinating the application process for KU students.
Mishra said that the growth of the national economy made now an excellent time to start a business.
"With this funding, a student could take a semester off, take their business to the next stage, come back to school and have a much better idea of what they want out of school," he said.
Mishra will help students develop their ideas and present them to the foundation. Applications will be evaluated on probability of success, originality and the applicant's determination, he said.
Interested students should contact Mishra by Oct. 29 at 864-7528 or smishra@ukans.edu.

Comedian honored for civil rights activism
WASHINGTON — Civil rights activist and comedian Dick Gregory was honored at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
In the 1960s, Gregory was an overweight, chain-smoking comedian who helped open doors for black entertainers. He also took part in civil rights marches and demonstrations, went on hunger strikes for various humanitarian causes and became an advocate for good health and nutrition.
Last year, Gregory, 67, was diagnosed with lymphoma. His friends decided to honor him with Monday night's gala.

Yugoslavia reaches for Western assistance
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — After shunning America during the election campaign, President Vojislav Kostunica's allies are reaching out to the West as they seek to rid the government of the last remnants of Slobodan Milosevic's regime.
Kostunica shunned contacts with the United States during the campaign for the Sept. 24 election because of Serb anger over last year's NATO bombing campaign.
Kostunica planned to meet yesterday with French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine, who will be the first cabinet minister of a NATO country that bombed Yugoslavia to visit Belgrade after last week's uprising.

New arts building will house gallery
By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Students will have an expanded opportunity to get their creative juices flowing when the new Lawrence Arts Center is completed.
The city commission awarded the bid for the new building to Altmar, Inc. of Topeka, which had the lowest bid of $5.5
million. The new center will be built in a vacant lot on the 900 block of New Hampshire Street.
City Commission
Ann Evans, executive director of the center, said the building would be complete in two years and will
offer a larger gallery space, classrooms and a 300-seat auditorium. She said the auditorium would give organizations such as West Side Folk or the Lawrence Chamber Players another option for performances.
"It will complement the other auditoriums that are in town," Evans said. "We were real careful when we designed and determined the size of our space."
The new building will be around 40,000 square feet — four times as large as the current arts center. The estimated cost of the entire project is $7.1 million, and the arts
center already has raised $2.5 million of the $3 million it committed to the project.
"It will be great for KU students," Evans said. "A lot more of them can participate because there will be more opportunities."
In addition to taking classes, Evans said students currently do theater productions, gallery exhibits and work at the center. She added that some of the teachers at the center were KU professors or graduate students.
Brian Daldorp, professor of English,
has taught creative writing classes at the
center for eight years. Currently, his
classes are at the Senior Center because there
is not enough space.
"We've been needing this for a long time, and it will allow us to do our job better," Daldorph said. "For a community this size, we just really need these facilities."
Daldorph said he hoped more professors would teach at the arts center.
"I think community-based education is so important," he said. "For me, it just puts me in contact with a different group of students than I teach at KU."
Although the Lawrence Arts Center is a private organization, the city owns the center's current home, the Carnegie Library, 200 W. Ninth St. The city has the same arrangement for the new building.
Evans said it was unusual for a private organization to enter into an agreement for a city-owned building.
Sketch comedy comes to college
A discussion about downtown trash problems ranged from pizza plates to feces at the city commission meeting last night.
Jerry Bottenfield, executive director of Downtown Lawrence, Inc., said he hoped nighttime establishments could work together to clean up the trash other business owners face in the morning. He said feces and the smell of urine were not uncommon on Massachusetts Street or in
Kathryn Dobson, owner of Pyramid Pizza, 1016 Massachusetts St., and Brett Mosiman, owner of the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., said they made sure their employees cleaned the areas around their businesses at closing time each evening and said the trash was from patrons who hung around after hours. Both said they had not received any previous complaints.
"I know for a fact that I never leave the establishment if there is trash to pick up," Dobson said.
"It's a problem that continues to get worse," he said. "We ask that we don't have to look at the aftermath of the bar scene every morning."
Trash plagues local businesses
City officials said they had received complaints about trash generated at night. The discussion focused on the 1000 block of Massachusetts Street.
Erv Hodges, city commissioner, questioned why the Granada had not joined Downtown Lawrence, Inc.
Hodges also said he thought the outside vending window at Pyramid Pizza should be closed to reduce trash. That motion was defeated 3-2.

Bottenfield said that the group generally focused on daytime issues and only a few bars were members.

All parties agreed that something should be done to keep the area clean. The commission asked nighttime business owners to contract an early morning cleaning service and asked that Downtown Lawrence, Inc., Pyramid, the Granada and other business owners report back on their progress in 30 days.
Mosiman said he wanted to be a good neighbor to the other businesses in the area and that the Granada would join the downtown group. He also asked people to be conscious of disposing their waste.

Marty Grusznis wants to bring a blockbuster sketch comedy group to Lawrence and the University of Kansas.
Grusznis, who is the producer of the Sketch Comedy Club, decided that in order to have an award-winning sketch comedy show, the University needed a sketch comedy organization composed of about 20 comedians, writers and producers who would spend the rest of the semester working up sketches.
"KU needs fun stuff like this," Grusznis said. "We just want to give students a creative outlet. Plus, who doesn't want to be on TV?"
Next semester, Grusznis said the comedy group would have a televised show on a local Lawrence channel. To help with money, Grusznis said the Sketch Comedy Club was going to Student Senate this week.
"I wanted to make a show for KU because I knew KU hadn't had a student-run show in a long time," said Grusznis, Chicago senior. "I talked to people about stuff we could do like a talk show and finally decided that sketch comedy is really a lot of fun and probably would be able to get the biggest reaction out of the students."
"The guy I auditioned with was about as funny as a swift kick to the groin," Hardaway said.
David Hardaway, Dallas freshman, was
one of the first to audition. Although his audition was less than stellar, he was accepted into the organization
The audition was rocky, but Hardaway said people should try out if they thought they had what it took.

"Anybody who feels they are a funny person and is looking for a creative outlet — it's definitely something to give a try," he said.
Grusznis said the sketch comedy organization needed more people than just actors to make the show.a success.
"We're looking for fun people who want to learn some stuff because obviously there is a lot to do involving producing, editing, directing and acting," he said. "There's a lot that goes into a production like this."
"I'm a full-time student and have full-time work," he said. "I figure if I have something to do I can leave it all behind."
Auditions for the Sketch Comedy Club will be:
■ Tonight at 7 at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
Dustin Hall, Baldwin sophomore, was excited about trying out for the comedy organization. He said comedy relieved stress in his hectic life.
Although the organization may seem all fun and games, Grusznis said students who were accepted into the organization should be prepared for an intense comedic experience.

Coordinator wants to unite KU students
Bv Jacob Roddy
Special to the Kansan
Laurie Sisk hopes that, in her new position, she will be able to help students deal with queer issues in the University of Kansas community.
Sisk was hired last week as KU's lesbian, bisexual, gay and transgender resource coordinator. This position used to be called the graduate liaison for LBGT concerns and has been vacant since the start of the semester.
Sisk graduated from Pittsburg State University and now lives in Lawrence.
Although Sisk was still familiarizing herself with her new office Monday, she had several ideas about directions she wanted to go as LBGT resource coordinator.
"I'd like to get the straight community more involved with gay issues," she said. "Who out there doesn't have a friend or a relative who is gay or bisexual? These issues affect everyone."
She also said she wanted to work with organizations such as Quers and Allies, the student organization for issues in the queer community, and the Oread Rainbow Alliance to provide a broader web of support for queer students.
"There's a lot of promise with the organizations that are in place to be a great sup
port," she said. "While I'm not a leader in those organizations, I'll get to know about them and direct students to them."
Marshall Jackson, assistant director of the Student Development Center, said renaming the position better defined Sisk's role in the KU community and made her more accessible to students.
Jackson added that Sisk was the best match of all the applicants for the job.
Jackson said Sisk's position provided support and guidance to students in the queer community, helped connect students with services that might help their individual needs, and developed and maintained information about queer issues.
"We're really pleased with Laurie," Jackson said. "She brings a wealth of knowledge and personal experience that relates well to issues that gay students may be experiencing."
Although it's her first semester at KU, Sisk said she was confident she could help students here who have concerns with queer issues.
"Being a lesbian, I know and realize that it is a struggle being a gay college student and dealing with issues in the classroom, in the dormitory and in a new city," she said. "I think it's my job to help smooth that road."

Forum discusses new rec center
Continued from page 1A
Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said the committee had considered bringing various machines into the Kansas Union Ballroom and gauge student opinion of all the equipment options.
"I hope that once we get the new pieces in, you'll be amazed," Chappell said. "There's been a lot of technological advances."
The students also approved of having a suspended track, saying that it should be designed so runners could see other activities going on in the center while using the track.
The proposal is for a two-story building that will be open 18 hours a day for student use, Chappell said. The building would not have a swimming pool, but the Robinson pool would still be available for student use. Everything else about the facility is up for consideration, she said.
"We have not had one planning committee meeting yet," Chappell said. "We wanted to find out what students wanted first."
Steve Brinker, Washington, Mo., senior, said the new building's design should have more personality than Robinson Gymnasium. "Robinson's kind of like a brick monster," he said.

Editorial board: RU-486 increases freedom of choice
Mifepristone offers women a safer option
T the approval of RU-486 was a sound decision that should perhaps have been taken a few years earlier.
On September 28, the Food and Drug Administration approved mifepristone, most commonly known as RU-486, for the termination of early pregnancy.
RU-486 has been legal and in use in France since 1988 and also is legal and available in 10 other European countries.
RU-486 can terminate a pregnancy in the first nine weeks. A woman can receive the drug as soon as she knows that she is pregnant. It is administered orally, under the supervision of a physician, and requires no surgical procedure.
Since abortion has always been and still is a source of great controversy in the United States, it is not hard to understand why it has taken us so much longer to legalize an abortion-inducing drug. However, RU-486 gives women who decide to have an abortion the option of a much easier and safer procedure. The drug also may be effective in treating a range of serious diseases, most of which particularly affect women. In February 1991, the American Association for the Advancement of Science endorsed the testing and use of RU-486. However, anti-abortion politics in the United States not only prevented its use as an abortion inducing-drug, but also forestalled most of the clinical trials of RU-486 as a treatment for serious diseases. Such diseases include meningioma, endomitrosis, fibroid tumors, breast and ovarian cancers and Cushing's Syndrome.
- Opponents of RU-486 claim that it is less safe than a surgical abortion and that chemical abortion is more emotionally traumatic for the mother.
It is true that the drug, just as every drug, cannot be used by all women, and that in certain cases, such as ectopic (tubal) pregnancies, the use of RU-486 is prohibited. It also is true that in about 2 precent of the cases it can cause severe bleeding. But under the terms of FDA approval, the drug will only be distributed to physicians who can accurately determine the length of the pregnancy, detect an ectopic pregnancy and provide surgical intervention in cases of incomplete abortions or severe bleeding.
On the other hand, women who undergo surgical abortions run the risks of scarring, infection or even permanent infertility. If a drug can achieve the desired effect in an almost risk-free manner, there is no reason why that drug should not replace the surgical procedure when possible.
As far as the emotional side is concerned, an abortion, by definition, cannot be a trauma-free experience, whether it is performed surgically or chemically. It is not conceivable how one procedure would cause more emotional trauma than the other. Thus, if a woman chooses to do it, she should be able to choose the procedure that incurs the least risk upon her physical health.
Since abortion is legal in the United States, it is inconceivable not to give women the option of a safer procedure when such a procedure is available.
KU Students for Life: RU-486 is not a viable solution
Illustration by Kyle Ramsey
Abortion pill tarnished by a dangerous reality
The FDA approved the distribution of the abortion drug RU 486 last month in the United States. Pro-choice advocates are rejoicing, claiming that now women can have easier, safer and more private abortions. KU Students For Life disagrees, based in part on the dangerous reality of the RU 486 experience described below.
dangerous reality of the RU-486 experience described below.
ee y
First, a woman finds that she is pregnant. Scared and possibly alone, she visits the doctor to discuss her options.
bly alone, she visits the doctor to discuss her options. The doctor counsels the woman to use RU-486. The promises of ease and privacy convince her that this is her best option. At this visit, the woman takes the first set of pills, mifepristone, which blocks the progesterone needed in pregnancies. This drug was tested in the U.S., but according to the New England Journal of Medicine, women with many different conditions were excluded from the test, including women with allergies and asthma, women younger than 18 or older than 35, and women who had used an IUD or oral contraceptive in the previous three months.
Two days later, the woman returns to receive the second pill, cytotec. This drug induces the contractions needed to miscarry the child. Searle, the manufacturer of this pill, which is usually used to control ulcers, has vehemently warned against the use of the drug for an unintended purpose, namely abortion. Searle warns that severe vaginal bleeding, shock, pelvic pain, and uterine rupture requiring hysterectomy can occur when cytotec is used for abortions.
If the delivery does not occur in the next four hours, the woman leaves the office still pregnant. The miscarriage can then occur at any time, anywhere (store, dorm room, restaurant) in the next 14 days. This is where the true emotional danger enters. The woman sees the child that is miscaried, who may already have developed a head, arms legs and a beaten
child that is miscarried, who may already have developed a head, arms, legs and a beating heart. If you don't believe this will be traumatic, ask any woman who has had a miscarriage. The emotional stress could haunt her the rest of her life.
Considering that RU-486 may cross the blood follicle barrier and enter the woman's eggs, the effects on future "wanted" pregnancies could be devastating.
That makes three trips to the doctor, two doses of pills, and one miscarriage — maybe. Not to mention a medical profession that increasingly devalues life and a culture that, despite lofty rhetoric to the contrary, still does not welcome all children into the world.
Those concerned about women need to let the government know that they have made a grave mistake. E-mail kusfli@raven.cc.ukans.edu to find out more and how to help.

Kansan tries to focus on student-related news
Have you noticed anything different about the Kansan lately? In the last week, we've included international news on the front page. That's an unusual diversion from the front-page news we usually include, which focuses more on students and campus issues. We try to play up issues that hit close to home such as minority enrollment, campus crime and lighthearted stories of interest to students, such as mega-fans of Phish.
Judging from the buzz in my classes, many of you weren't as interested in a story about women living together who menstruate together. We may not always be on target, but for the most part we

If we could afford to send someone overseas to cover the Middle East or Eastern Europe, I'm sure we'd have tons of reporters lined up. But if we're going to start foreign bureaus, the ad staff better start some massive sales campaigns.
That's why we leave the national and
international news up to the Associated Press and CNN. It seems like students would read the Kansan to get local news and go to USA Today or broadcast television for national and international coverage.
For many of you, though, we may be your main source of national and international news. The perception that college students don't care about what's going on in the country and the world, aside from what bar has the best drink special tonight, obviously is a fallacy.
Studies and research say young people aren't reading newspapers and are getting their news in different ways, if they're getting news at all. Judging by the interest KU students have for national and international issues, maybe there is hope after all.
This year, we've tried to include more off-campus news, and lately, it's been making the front page.
When possible, we localize international stories. For the story about Slobodan Milosovic's resignation, we found Yugoslavian students to comment. The better national and international coverage is that which is relevant to students.
We also try to devote an inside page to national and international stories when space makes it possible. We didn't decide to make that effort on a whim. You told us that's what you wanted.
So keep looking. We may just surprise you.

Letters to the editor Standards for nation's leaders should be higher
It is a sad state of affairs when presidential candidate George W. Bush only has to not "screw up" in order to have a "successful" debate. Could you imagine if all you had to do to have a successful day is not screw up? Have our standards for a national leader come down to this?
Conversely, Vice President Al Gore only had to restrain himself from mudsling in order to have a successful debate. I suspect Al Gore had to bite his tongue several times during the debate. But can you blame him? Governor Bush's political career has largely been a spoonfed failure. After obtaining an education from Yale and Harvard (did his father have anything to do with this?) Bush made an unsuccessful bid for Congress in 1978. His first political experience came 10 years later as an aide to President Bush. This was followed by his present position, since only 1994, as governor of Texas (his father had everything to do with this).
Under Governor Bush, Texas leads the nation in pollution and hazardous waste, touts an education system that is mediocre at best, largely ignores public health, has some of the highest rates of poverty yet spends the least amount on social welfare, and either incarcerates people or executes them. Hey, but you can carry a gun. Is this what we can expect from Governor Bush if he becomes our next president? I don't think this is the vision that most Americans have for the United States.
Governor Bush has had his entire, albeit limited, political career handed to him, yet failed to make positive changes. I suggest we elect someone who has the experience to lead our nation down the right path.
And what can we expect from someone with such limited political experience? As a governor, how much of a relationship does George W. have with members of Congress, much less world leaders and diplomats? Al Gore was dealing with U.S. and international policy makers even before Bush was hunting for oil or playing with his major league baseball team.

I'm glad to see that Ramona DeNies thinks that children should be controlled and harvested like some sort of crop. "Controlled propagation of the species?" What are we, farm animals? Should we start hunting people like we do deer to keep our population in check? No, of course not. But for some reason, we can justify killing a tiny human with a pill. Abortion does not kill an embryo; it kills a baby. From the moment of conception, a human life is present, and it scares me to think that the life of a child has become so meaningless that we can end it with such ease.
Population argument neglects rights of unborn
So many people are against the government interfering in the life of a child, but if the courts were to decide that Dr. Kevorkian was right all along, what kind of an uproar would that cause? Society takes life for granted, whether it is the life of an unborn child or the life of a terminal-ill senior. DNies' column perpetuates the societal belief that the rights of the living take precedence over the rights of the unborn and those who can't speak for themselves.
for comments, call 864-4854 or e-mail opinion@kansan.com
So, Ms. DeNies, if you think that the landscape of Earth is more important than the life of a child, more power to you. But there are some of us out there who disagree — for the sake of the unborn children, who are screaming to be heard.
Jayhawker Towers should provide residents with heat
Collette Pomeroy
Topeka freshman
I would just like to inform you about a current inhumane practice to which students at the University of Kansas are being subjected.
I live in Jayhawker Tower A, and along with my roommates and the rest of the building. I'm freezing. These brick walls act as a refrigerator holding the cold inside. My sweat pants, sweat shirt, socks, a quilt and a comforter were not enough to keep me from shivering all night long. How is a person supposed to sleep in these conditions?
I'm sure the people making the decision to not turn the heat on go home to toasty warm houses, but we are stuck here to suffer. My roommate ate her breakfast this morning in front of our oven that we have had to open and turn up to 500 degrees just to help us shew the ice that has formed on our eyelashes.
Apparently, the rationale for not giving us heat is that the weather may yet turn warm and we might want to use the air-conditioning. This is not going to happen! Even if the weather does warm up for a few days, it will still be cold in here. No one will want air-conditioning for the rest of the year.
This kind of abuse would not be happening in any other kind of apartment living in Lawrence. Why does the University think that this behavior is acceptable? Does the University do just whatever it thinks it can get away with? I would like to know the temperature right now in the Chancellor's home, or is he waiting for his heat to be turned on too?

Conservatives falsely claim to stand up for 'little guy'
In his letter "Colummit reveals ideological ignorance," John McCool attempts to point out the differences between liberalism and conservatism. He charges that in actuality, the conservatives "protect the little guy," meaning that the Republicans are supposedly standing guard against the interests of the common citizen against the bleeding-heart liberals and all their government interference.
This argument, of course, falls flat on its face when looked at through the lens of reality. Conservatives regularly vote against such measures as minimum wage increases, which are designed to give aid to "the little guy." Why? Because of corporate interests. Conservatives also have a pattern of voting against strong anti-HMO measures, and only under the mounting pressure of this election-fever did the conservative Congress adopt anything resembling HMO reform. Why? Because of corporate interests. The conservatives can't have it both ways, and it's clear to anyone with a modicum of political insight which ideology speaks for the little guy, and which one speaks for the big money.
McCool goes on to cite violations of the Second and 10th Amendments. Let it be clear: handguns and assault rifles exist for no other reason than the taking of human life. The Second Amendment is an antiquated statute that was drafted to protect citizens from the abuses of government through the use of possible insurrection. While a critical right at the time, the idea of an armed uprising in America now is laughable. And there are enough violations of the 10th Amendment on both sides of the fence to render this issue moot as a differentiating topic between the two ideologies.
All this aside, the most iniating statement by McCool is his reference to liberal "asiine social programs." Is Social Security an asinine social program? What about financial aid for college tuition? Heating the homes of those who can't afford it? How about food for parents who cannot feed their children? Is it
Generalizations, of course, are just that. These sorts of characteristics do not fit to all conservatives, nor does the title "bleedingheart" do justice to all liberals. However, I take issue with the statement that conservatives stand up for the "little guy." They are the voices of the privileged; those who can afford to criticize social programs that yield benefits that they have never tasted. They represent a small minority of Americans who through providence, privilege or pedigree have managed to secure a future for themselves. And they are, most assuredly, not the patrons of the "little guy."
asinine, sir, to make medical care a right and not a privilege? Perhaps you would prefer we let the sick die in the street.

Vagina Monologues' answers bring about more questions
Says here in a college newspaper some woman wrote a whole play about vaginas, The Vagina Monologues. Spent three years traveling the whole world asking women about their vaginas. Must have been some sort of medical experiment, or maybe one of those ideologically crazed feminists we read about.
Says here the play posed questions, like what would a vagina say if it could talk. Well, it can't talk. That's why it's called "monologues." Not that a lot of people try that.
The play also explored "where the vagina is." Well folks, where I come from we have no problem on that. Fact is, half the people in town have one, everyone knows where it is and seems the other half of town is always trying to get their hands on it. And nobody is confused as to what it is for.
Our president thinks its for storing cigars, but folks in my town say it's for making babies. "Look at it cross-eyed," they say and "yup, a small replica of yourself will emerge into your area of responsibility." And you know what that means — slavery.
Nor do the vaginas in my town seem to need much "empowerment." Seems to me they're the most powerful things in town. That's why they keep them hidden — so no one can steal them.
The play also explored "why it is so seldom talked about." Now that is serious. I'm simply stunned at how women clam up when I ask, "How is your vagina today?"
"Our sexuality is very important and something we should acknowledge," says the play's coordinator. Oh boy! No problem there in my town.
But that was all back in the days when vaginas were reasonable. Nowadays, just to look at one you have it all in writing and notarized.
There are some things about vaginas the play left out. Probably not "vaginally correct."

Critical Mass crossed the line
As I picked up the the Kansan , I read in shame about the actions of the Critical Mass bike ride. I can understand how a group of cyclists could become frustrated with the City Commission about a lack of bike lanes in Lawrence.
I'm an avid cyclist myself. In fact, I raced in the Junior National Olympic Team Qualifying race in 1996. What I can't understand is how some of the cyclists could commit the actions in the article.
The actions of those cyclists who violated the law by crossing the center line of traffic and riding more than two abreast holding up traffic are defeating the basic premise of the ride to begin with: safe cycling awareness.

Freshman class elections begin today
By Kursten Phelps writer@kansan.com Konson staff writer
The national elections are still more than three weeks away, but freshmen will get their chance this week to elect their class representatives.
Freshman class officer elections for the Board of Class Officers will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today and tomorrow in front of Strong Hall. Students must present their KUIDs to vote.
Two coalitions — Campus All-Stars and
Us are running in the election.
Blake Adams, Tulsa, Okla., Campus All-Stars candidate for freshman class vice president, said he got involved in the election to stay involved in student government.
"I'm just looking to make freshmen more aware," Adams said. "A lot of freshmen don't know about this at all."
He said the coalition wanted to make freshmen feel more comfortable at the University and possibly establish a hot line to answer freshmen's questions.
Kendra Knight, Baldwin City freshman, who is running for treasurer with the ✔ Us coalition, said the class officers could be an outlet for students' voices to be heard.
"I think our coalition wants to take on more responsibility and designate some projects that maybe haven't been explored before." Knight said.
Knight said she thought it was a great opportunity for the freshman class to put its ideas into action.
Brady Rodgers, Oklahoma City senior and current senior class secretary, said the board selected and presented the senior class gift to the University each year. He said it also was involved in the presentation of the Excel and HOPE awards — which are given to an outstanding faculty member and student each year
and the Campanile Award, which was the senior class gift last year and honors one student from any class that has done something exceptional.
"A lot of people don't know about BOCO, but I think it's an important group because it's small enough to get things done." Rodgers said. "We're here solely to represent our class and see that the issues that are important to each individual class are addressed."

Scholarship rewards community service
By Amy Riscoe
Special to the Kansan
This is the 25th anniversary of the Lynn Leban scholarship, which rewards community service and involvement.
Lynn Leban was fatally injured in 1975 in a car accident. To honor her life, Leban's family and friends wanted to give back to the community, just as Lynn did. They set up the scholarship to reward community service.
"It is not like any others," said Audrey Leban, Lynn's mother. "It is for those who go above and beyond of what is expected of them."
Melanie Hepburn, assistant dean of School of Social Welfare, said Lynn Leban went beyond what was expected of her and was dedicated to the community.
"She was a very dynamic individual." Hepburn said. "She was very involved and
The scholarship is administered through the School of Social Welfare and is awarded yearly. The only requirement is that students must make a commitment to helping others. "They must have social justice and civil responsibilities." Audrey Leban said.
The scholarship committee also looks for previous community service.
Unlike many other scholarships available, grades are not the main requirement.
gave back to her community."
"Grades count for to certain extent," Audrey Leban said. "We just need to feel that the applicants will be able to successfully carry out their college career."
The recipient will be awarded $2,000 for the academic school year.
Any student involved in the community should apply for the scholarship at the School of Social Welfare by March 15.
RU-486 tests notification laws
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S.C. — A growing number of states plan to apply parental notification laws to the abortion pill RU-486 before it is given to girls wanting to end pregnancies.
Thirdy-two states have laws requiring at least one parent be notified before a minor has an abortion. So far, state officials in Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Nebraska, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia have said their notification laws likely would be applied to RU-486.
"I know the parents of South Carolina would want to be notified whether it's an office procedure or a pill." South Carolina Attorney General Charlie Condon said yesterday.
Condon plans to ask the South Carolina Medical Association to remind doctors that at least one parent or legal guardian has to be notified when a girl voucher than 17 seeks an abortion.
The association has no problems with Condon's request, said general counsel Aaron Kozloski.
"South Carolina law clearly defines what an abortion is," Kozloski said. "It does not distinguish between a chemical and surgical procedure."
RU-486's approval brings a whole new dimension to the abortion debate.
The pill, which will be sold under the brand name Mifeprex, blocks a hormone vital to sustaining a pregnancy. It works only during the first seven
ON THE NET www.fda.gov
weeks of pregnancy and requires three trips to the doctor but doesn't involve surgery. It is expected to be available nationwide in October.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America is against parental notification laws in general, said Chris Jueschke, chief executive of the Columbia clinic of Planned Parenthood of South Carolina. But he said his clinic would follow the law.
"There is no question that Mifeprex is medical abortion," said Glenn Mones, a spokesman for Planned Parenthood Federation of America. "We understand that it would be viewed as such in many states that regulate abortion."
"We're still in the process of legal review," said the organization's vice president Loretta Kane.
The National Organization for Women said it is considering legal action in Virginia and South Carolina.
Ed Szymkowik, national director for Stop Planned Parenthood International, based in Stafford, Va., agreed with the interpretation by Condon and other attorneys general.
The Food and Drug Administration studies have shown RU-486 to be between 92 percent and 95 percent effective in causing abortion. Researchers say complications are rare, with serious bleeding in 1 percent of women.

Fraternity rebounds from slim numbers
By J.D. McKee
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Two years ago, Theta Chi fraternity was without a chapter house and down to five members.
Now, the group has 60 members and a new house. Fraternity member Ryan Gerstner, Frankfort senior, said Theta Chi hoped to reach a membership total of 80 men by the end of the year.
The rejuvenation of the chapter did not come easy.
The problems began in the mid- 1990s, said Kris Smalley, a member of Theta Chi.
"The members got lax with recruiting and didn't do a good job recruiting guys out of high school," said Smalley, Shawnee senior.
The numbers eventually dwindled down until there was only a handful of members left.
"It was no longer economically viable to keep the house," said Lindsay Olsen, an alumnus of the house.
In the fall of 1997, the alumni of the fraternity decided to reorganize the chapter. They gave the five remaining members a chance to stay with the fraternity by allowing them to interview about why they wanted to remain with Theta Chi. Several declined. Only one person became part of the rebuilding fraternity.
Olsen said that as the number of people in the house began to decline, the problems started to snowball.
"Once the size gets to be that small, the attitudes become depressed," he said. "And it's difficult to attract new members to that situation."
The alumni brought in members of the national headquarters to help with the reorganization and to help recruit new members. They placed ads, put filers in dorms and held informational meetings. They attracted seven or eight people, one of whom was Gerstner.
"The members got lax with recruiting and didn't do a good job of recruiting guys out of"
high school."
Kris Smalley
Shawnee senior
Gerstner said he joined Theta Chi because of the leadership opportunities that were available.
"It was pretty hard at first," said Gerstner, who joined the fraternity during his sophomore year. "We didn't really recruit that first summer."
"It's a lot of fun to start a new group," he said.
But the fraternity still was without a house. Gerstner said they held the chapter meetings in the Kansas Union that first year.
"We had people living all over the place," Gerstner said. "But we were still able to do all the things other houses do."
But being without a house was a detriment to recruitment.
"It definitely made it more of a challenge." Gerstner said. "We were able to overcome that obstacle, thank God. It wasn't easy.
Smalley also joined as a sophomore and was in the recruitment class after Gerstner. He said he rushed other fraternities as a freshman but found them too big and too difficult to get involved in.
Theta Chi now is renting the former Alpha Xi Delta house, with a capacity of 32 people, leaving some as out-of-house members. The group entered the house last fall.
Chris Claus, Belton, Mo. sophomore, said the fraternity members were weighing their options as to whether they would buy the property from Alpha Xi Delta or wait for another property to open up.

Gun locks found defective Federal agents subpoena media consultant's records
Police discover safety devices can spring open
The Associated Press
STAMFORD, Conn. — A nationwide program to distribute free gun locks to protect children has been suspended after police discovered the devices can spring open.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation, a trade group based in Newtown, Conn., distributed 400,000 cable locks through more than 300 law enforcement agencies before police in Knoxville and Chattanooga, Tenn., reported the problems last week. Agencies in 360 other communities have signed up for the free program, but the locks were not yet distributed.
The foundation said yesterday that no more locks would be given out until extensive testing is done.
"We've informed all of the municipalities that have already distributed locks of the potential problem and have asked them to send in a sampling of locks they may still have so that we can do a test," said Robert Delfay, the group's president and chief executive.
Delfay said a decision on whether any of the locks would be recalled would be made after the tests.
Project HomeSafe began about a year ago, with the foundation promoting it as a way for gun owners to feel sure that their weapons are safe from children.
But a Knoxville officer discovered one of the locks would spring open when bounced in his hand. Police found the trait was common after testing the 3,000 locks they had planned to distribute.
The cable locks, which differ from trigger locks, are pulled through gun handles or barrels to prevent the weapon from being fired or loaded. Some of the nation's largest and most violent cities — Houston, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia among them — participated in the project.
Bill Brassard, the project's coordinator, said the locks were made overseas but he didn't know by whom. Officials are checking to see whether the flaw is common to
ON THE NET http://www.projecthomesafe.org
all of the locks, or whether the ones in Tennessee were just a bad batch.
Foundation officials said the failures reported by Tennessee police were the first they had received.
Police in the Tennessee cities said they were concerned gun owners might have a false sense of security about the locks. Delfay said the foundation shared the worry and recommended that all weapons be stored in safety boxes. He said the locks never were meant to be foolproof.
"These locks are not intended to defeat all attempts to open them or destroy them by force." Delfay said. "They're supposed to discourage unauthorized use."
But he added: "Even if it opens easier than someone might hope, it is still more effective than no lock at all."
The foundation represents about 1,800 gun and accessory manufacturers. When the program began, some gun control proponents called it a public relations ploy to defuse criticism and lawsuits filed against the gun industry over the rash of gun violence across the country.
Leaders may have ordered shakeup
NEW YORK — An organizational shakeup among the Jehovah's Witnesses may have been ordered by the faith's leaders to shield themselves from lawsuits concerning the group's religious practices.
The Associated Press
A representative for the group denied the allegation.
The Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania, as the group is officially known, had been run by the Governing Body. But on Saturday, president Milton Henschel, 80, and the six other board members resigned, and it was announced that religious and administrative duties would be divided with three newly formed corporations running U.S.

operations.
Though the Witnesses say no important cases are pending, defectors from the religion have talked about suing the society, headquartered in Brooklyn, because of various grievances.
Those could include lawsuits concerning church members who died or suffered because the denomination opposes blood transfusions. Also, the organization could
face lawsuits because of its practice of expelling members.
Raymond Franz of Winston, Ga., the only Governing Body member ever to quit and write about the religion's inner workings, also noted that France had a a new law that targeted religious organizations accused of mind control, while German law required severance pay for church workers who leave.
"They are trying to find means to protect themselves legally," Franz said.
An official statement said decentralization would also allow the Witnesses to keep pace with growth. The Witnesses reported 5.9 million active members as of last year, 980,000 of them in the United States.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Corporate and campaign records related to George W. Bush's media consultant and his staff have been subpoenaed by federal agents investigating the anonymous mailing of Bush debate materials to an aide to his Democratic presidential rival.
FBI agents have focused primarily on these staffers and are trying to determine whether their explanations hold up, a senior federal law enforcement official said Monday, requesting anonymity.
N.Y. governor
The case began with former Rep. Tom Downey, who was helping Democrat Al Gore prepare for debates with GOP opponent Bush, received a package Sept. 13 containing documents and a videotape that appeared to show Bush's debate preparations. Downey gave the material to the FBI, which has since begun a criminal investigation
Bush: investigators subpoenaed records of his debate material
The material was mailed Sept. 11 from
Austin, Texas, where Bush's campaign is headquartered. The FBI obtained a videotape from a surveillance camera at the post office where the package was mailed.
The tape showed Yvette Lozano, a lowlevel employee of Bush's media firm, Maverick Media, mailing a package at a time that corresponded to when the debate package was mailed, law enforcement officials have said.
Lozano has said she was mailing a pair of khaki pants to The Gap for her boss, Mark McKinnon, who supported her story by producing a pair of replacement khakis. Lozano said the FBI took her fingerprints and her computer.
At The Gap, spokesman Jack Dougherty said the company was subpoenaed Sept. 26 to turn over all records of McKinnon's transaction. Dougherty said the company complied with the subpoena on Sept. 29 but
would not say what records were turned over.
"We have a strict privacy policy so we don't disclose details about any customer to the public." Dougherty said.
However, The Wall Street Journal reported that The Gap did not receive the khakis until a week after the Sept. 11 date on which Lozano said they were mailed.
FBI agents expanded their inquiry more than a week ago to see if someone directed or assisted Lozano, law enforcement officials said.
McKinnon said FBI agents asked him whether the mailing was part of a Bush campaign trick to sabotage or delay the presidential debates.
A Bush official told The Associated Press, on condition of anonymity, that the campaign had received subpoenas from a federal grand jury. All the material covered by the subpoenas was information already given or offered by the campaign, the official said.
ABC News quoted an unnamed Bush representative as saying the campaign was subpoenaed for its contracts with Maverick Media and any confidentiality agreements between them. Newsweek magazine reported that the government also subpoenaed Maverick Media's records.
In all these instances, investigators were seeking "routine records," a federal law enforcement official said Monday.
Investigators, meanwhile, still are searching for a motive in the case and as a result have been unable to settle on any of five possible statutes that might have been violated, a senior law enforcement official said.
The statutes are: interstate transportation of stolen property, theft from a federally funded activity, mail fraud, lying to an FBI agent and a Watergate-era law prohibiting someone working for one campaign from posing as a member of another campaign.
The FBI also has interviewed some Democrats, including Downey and Michael Doyne, a Gore staffer in Tennessee who was suspended by the campaign for claiming to know of a "mole" in Bush's camp.

Church settles sex abuse case
The Associated Press
"This settlement ends half a century of fear, secrecy, silence and shame that protected Father Grammond," said David Slader, lawyer for the plaintiffs.
PORTLAND, Ore. — The Roman Catholic Church apologized yesterday for one of the nation's largest cases of sexual abuse by a priest and agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to 22 men who said they had been molested as far back as 50 years ago.
The men charged that the Rev. Maurice Grammond enticed them to engage in sexual acts between 1950 and 1974.
The amount of the settlement was kept confidential by both sides. The men had sued for $44 million.
No criminal charges against Grammond are possible. The statute of limitations has run out,
and the 80-year-old priest is in the Alzheimer's unit at a retirement home.
In addition to the apology, the church agreed to head a task force to recommend policies to avoid abuse. And it will review files of active priests who have been subjects of child abuse complaints and offer counseling to other victims. The apology is to be read in every church in the archdiocese
"To any person who has suffered from abuse by any personnel of the Archdiocese of Portland and to their families, I express my deep regret and ask for pardon and forgiveness," he said.
In Oregon, Grammond served at a home for troubled and abused boys in Portland and in parishes in the coastal town of Seaside and the logging community of Oakridge. Most of the plaintiffs had been altar boys in Seaside, where Grammond spent 20 years before his retirement in 1985.
The plaintiffs, who had kept quiet about the sexual abuse for decades, mostly live in Oregon and range in age from 39 to 61.
The lawsuits accused the archdiocese of failure to notify parishioners of Grammond's past molestations of boys, failure to monitor his activities and advise authorities and failure to have other adults accompany Grammond on camping trips and other youth activities.
The first lawsuit was filed last year by Joe Elliott, who grew up in Seaside. After that, more plaintiffs came forward.
The nation's biggest known priest abuse case involved the Rev. James Porter of Massachusetts, who was accused by 99 people of molesting them while they were children in the 1950s and 1960s. He pleaded guilty in 1993 to molesting 28 children and was sentenced to 18 to 20 years in prison.
Matriarch's death mars violent Sri Lankan vote
The Associated Press
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — As Sri Lankans waited for the results of an election that could stop the 17-year civil war, they also grieved for Sirimavo Bandaranake, or "Mrs. B," the matriarch of the nation's politics.
Bandaranaike, 84, died yesterday after casting her vote.
Shelling by rebels, election-eve killings and the death of Bandaranake, the world's first female prime minister and the mother of the current president, overcast the parliamentary elections. The government imposed a curfew in Colombo between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m.
A bomb exploded minutes after voting ended, wounding 32 supporters of President Chandrika Kumaratunga's People's Alliance party.
National Party comes into power, it would immediately de-escalate the fighting in the northern Jaffa Peninsula and then negotiate with the rebels.
Police blamed the attack on political rivalry between Kumaratunga's party and that of her chief rival, the United National Party of former Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe.
Wickremesinghe has said that if his United
Kumaratunga's People's Alliance took an early lead in postal ballots, which came from people living in areas where they were not registered to vote, the Election Commission said.
The commission said it counted 46,500 postal ballots. People's Alliance got 21,500 votes against 15,907 by the main opposition United National Party.
Just after the polls closed, the two leading parties leveled accusations of vote-rigging.
The independent Center for Monitoring Election Violence urged the Elections Commissioner not to count the votes in at least 210 of the country's 9,500 polling centers.
Two attacks left three people dead on the night before the voting, police said.
sixty-six people have been killed in election violence since campaigning started five weeks ago.
Space shuttle liftoff delayed a third time
The Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — With the weather forecast improving, astronauts boarded space shuttle Discovery yesterday for an evening liftoff on a flight to the interplanetary space station.
However, a problem cropped up in the final hours that could force another delay for NASA's 100th space shuttle flight.
Workers conducting a routine inspection of Discovery noticed a metal pin on the liquid-oxygen line between the shuttle and its external fuel tank.
Engineers were trying to determine whether the pin might be blown into the shuttle during liftoff and, if it did, whether it would cause any damage.
At the late stage of the countdown, no one could get to the pin.
Meanwhile, meteorologists were growing more optimistic that the weather would cooperate. Strong winds and low clouds remained the main concerns.
The attempt was NASA's third in less than a week to send Discovery and seven astronauts on the critical space station construction mission. Mechanical problems scuttled last Thursday's launch attempt, and gusty wind prevented the shuttle from lifting off on Monday.

GENDER DIFFERENCES
Women may become more intoxicated than men after drinking the same amount of alcohol because:
- Women have less body water and more body fat than men, so the concentration of alcohol in a woman's blood will be higher.
- Women are usually smaller than men, so alcohol is less diluted when it reaches the brain.
- A woman can get intoxicated more rapidly right before her period. Also, using birth control pills will cause alcohol to metabolize slower, leading to quicker and longer intoxication.

Coyla Ezell, a 50-year-old fifth grade teacher at Hillcrest Elementary, 1045 Hilltop Drive, shows a student her Cattie ampersand tattoo on her outside right ankle. Ezell has had the tattoo for two years and said she never has felt pressure to hide it from students and coworkers.
o tattoo or not to tattoo, that is the question.
Or at least that's the question that's been on my mind ever since I came to Lawrence four years ago. I was walking down Massachusetts Street when I saw my first tattoo shop. As I peered inside the window, my conscience — or my mother's voice — kept saying: "It's forever!
"You could get a disease!
Blood oozes everywhere.
"Did I mention? It's forever!"
So I put the tattoo notion in the back of my head and got my freshman rebellion phase out of my system by double-piercing my ears. I know, I'm wild. When that backfired on me — my earring got sucked into my ear and required medical attention from the folks at Watkins — I decided injecting ink into my skin probably wouldn't be the best form of self-expression.
But lately the idea of has resurfaced. I went back to the tattoo parlor and pondered designs that could be embedded into my lower back. A ladybug (a symbol of good luck), a Chinese character with my name or a panda all seemed like reasonable and socially acceptable images for my body.
So I talked about it with my mom.
After she first suggested money with wings on it ('cause that's what her money would be doing after I got tattooed), she rationally said she'd give me her blessing when I turned 40.
So sweet.
I won't take her design advice, but even with the design in limbo, there are still other factors, besides my mom, curbing my tattoo enthusiasm:
The social repercussions
Would future employers not hire someone who had a naked woman tattooed on their forearm? Might they
prefer a delicate butterfly in hiddest view on an ankle?
Marile Lyddon, a secretary at a temp agency Adecco, 100 E. Ninth St., said such preferences would be discrimination and therefore illegal. But she said the tattoo still could hurt a person's reputation in the business world.
"On a daily basis in an office, having one wouldn't come across as being professional — even at 20 years old," she said. "It plays a part in how you present yourself. But you could cover it and no one would ever know."
Some places, such as
schools or restaurants, might not care as much as a law firm or doctor's office, Lyddon said.
Coyla Ezell, a 50-year-old fifth grade teacher at Hillcrest Elementary, thought about getting a tattoo for five years before she finally committed two years ago to a Celtic ampersand on her inside right ankle. The school and her coworkers didn't mind the design, and she said she's never felt pressure to cover the design up.
But she's not running back to the tattoo parlor either.
"I only wanted to get one because I hate when people mix themes," she said. "If you have one cartoon character, stick with cartoons. If you like Chinese characters, do all Chinese characters. It's that easy."
"It if was rude or unsighty, it would bother me," said Debbie Fey, a manager at Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St. "I wouldn't want to see a naked woman on a sever's arm."
Some businesses base their tattoo policies on whether the design might offend someone.
Joe Flannery, the president of Weaver's Department Store, 901 Massachusetts St., felt the same way.
"Normally, a tattoo is not an issue. But if it was on a forehead, that might be a concern," he said. "It totally depends on the business, but it's all the rage today."
So if my decision is to be based on my future profession, I should be in the clear. As a future sports journalist, most of the athletes I encounter are tattooed from head to toe.
Score one for getting a tattoo. But what about:
The permanency issue
concern.'
What if I decide I don't want my grandkids to see my tattoo? Should my wedding plans include a scheme to hide the heart with "I Love N'Sync" on my shoulder?
The whole "it's forever" thing has been my main concern. And my mom has pounded that idea into my head again and again.
"Normally, a tattoo is not an issue. But if it was on a forehead, that might be a concern."
Granted, removing tattoos now is a lot easier because of laser technology. In the past, sanding the tattoo off or using a scalpel to remove the skin were some painful options for removing that skull and crossbones.
Joe Flannery president of Weaver's Department Store
But now, lasers offer bloodless removal with little side effects.
Ruth Perry, a certified ESC Systems Operator at the Jones Family Practice in Wellsville, sees about three to four customers a week for tattoo removal. She uses an IPL (Intense Pulse Light) that removes or fades the tattoo without damage to the skin. The treatment costs anywhere from $150 to $700 depending on the size and color of the tattoo.
So what's the most common reason for getting that tattoo removed?
Maybe I should reconsider that N'Sync tattoo then.
"People will have a memory of the tattoo to someone they don't like anymore," Perry said.
So, with the advice of schoolteacher Ezell, I'm
Should Amanda get a tattoo?

supposed to think long and hard before forking over the money for a tattoo.
That's what Jay Lovett, Hillsboro junior, did before selecting a tribal symbol for the middle of his back last month. He traveled to different tattoo stores to find the perfect design that would remain on his body for eternity. he doesn't regret it, and neither does Jen Van Ruyen. The St. Catherines, Ontario, Canada, sophomore, tattooed a Jayhawk on her lower back the day she signed her letter of intent to be a KU rower. But she'll only get tattoos in easily hidden places, including a possible "Made in Canada" logo on her derriere.
"I don't want to get one too visible because I don't want it to show when I wear my wedding dress,"
If I can find a decent design, tally another one for the protattoo side. But there's yet another issue:
Mv low pain threshold
If I cry when I get my finger pricked, how am I going to handle twenty minutes of needles going in and out my skin?
I admit, I'm a wuss. I cry at Disney movies and my stomach turns flips every time I see a needle. So to prepare for my tattoo, I participated in the blood drive last week. I didn't puke, or pass out, at the sight of my own blood, so I think I can handle some suffering.
At least the today's tattoo artists have better resources than in the past.
According to Howstuffworks.com, many tribes of the Arctic and Subarctic, people made needle punctures through which a thread coated with pigment was drawn underneath the skin. In Polynesia and Micronesia, pigment was pricked into the skin by tapping on a tool shaped like a small rake.
Ow.
But everyone I've talked to who has undergone a tattoo artist's needle said the skin normally goes numb after a few minutes.
Coyla described the process as "poking yourself with a toothpick over and over again. But it's fun." If that's fun, maybe I should just go to the dentist and get a root canal.
So one point for a tattoo-free Amanda.
So that's a 2-1 lead for getting a tattoo. But my mom's veto adds another anti-tattoo vote to the argument. So in a 2-2 tie, I'm undecided. That's why I'm letting Kansan readers decide my fate. At www.kansan.com, in the features section, you'll be able to vote whether or not I get a tattoo.
So cast your vote online, and check back next week to see the results!
And mom, you can only vote once.

Allen will return for fifth season
By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
There's $35 million invested in Terry Allen as Kansas' football coach and don't expect Kansas to abandon ship anytime soon.
Kansas athletics director Bob Frederick said yesterday that Allen would be the coach at least through next year.
"I fully support coach Allen," Frederick said. "We're going to stay the course."
Since Allen arrived at Kansas in 1997, the program has received several upgrades in order to compete for recruits and remain formidable in the Big 12 Conference. Memorial Stadium got permanent lights for night games in 1997. The concourse got a facelift, and a spacious new locker room was added in 1998. A new press box and luxury suites were
added in 1999, and new artificial turf was installed for this season.
Part of the reasoning behind the improvements was to keep up with Kansas State, which has turned into a national power and won the last eight Sunflower Showdowns.
I
With all the renovations, however, not
Terry Allen
much has changed in the record books for the Jayhawks. It could be argued that the program has regressed since Allen's arrival. After a promising 5-6 record in 1997, Kansas has gone 4-7 and 5-7 the last two seasons.
In Allen's first season, Kansas defeated Oklahoma and Texas Christian, which are
now ranked eighth and 12th, respectively. In 1988, Kansas defeated then-ranked Colorado, which is Allen's only victory against a top 25 opponent. That same year, the Jayhawks won at Alabama-Birmingham, which remains Allen's lone road win.
Allen labeled last year's squad as a possible bowl contender before the season started. This year he was optimistic, but Kansas started with a demoralizing season-opening loss at Southern Methodist, which has dropped five in a row since.
Frederick, however, said that a main reason to keep Allen was his ability to recruit the past couple of years.
"Our last two recruiting classes are very promising," Frederick said.
This year, Kansas is 2-3 overall and 0-2 in Big 12 games after losses to Oklahoma and Kansas State, both of which are ranked in
the top eight nationally
Despite losing to a pair of national championship contenders, Allen was perturbed with his team's 52-13 loss Saturday to Kansas State. He said he felt the need to intensify practices and possibly make some personnel changes.
Allen was particularly upset with sporadic play against the Wildcats.
"Some guys played hard one play then they'd take three plays off." Allen said.
Nose tackle Nate Dwyer said the team's attitude had been different since losing to Kansas State.
"After the game, people had some stuff to say to each other." Dwyer said.
Dwyer said there were arguments in the locker room as players vented frustrations. The last two practices have been more aggressive than earlier this year and Allen has been more of an "in-your-ear"
type coach. Dwyer said.
"There were a lot of fights out there," Dwyer said. "But guys get it out of their system, and when we're done with practice we're friends again. We needed this."
There had been talk from a few players, who wished to remain anonymous, who were concerned that Allen's job status was not safe if the Jayhawks did not win at least one "big game," referring primarily to games against ranked opponents such as Nebraska and Texas.
Some critics have argued that winning the Missouri game Saturday is do-or-die for Allen's job, but Frederick said that was not true.
'Hawks want elusive win at Missouri
"Absolutely not," Frederick said. "I would never make a decision on a coach based on one game."

Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard has been waiting for that turnaround win.
His team goes to practice — killing, blocking and digging just as it did when it was a record setting 9-0.
Now 11-6, 2-6 in the Big 12 Conference and reeling from losing four straight matches, the Jayhawks are looking for an answer to their problems: their three five-game conference losses; their multi-record breaking season; but multieror
games; their
seemingly sud-
den loss of
snark.

voleytball.
"We won game five against Colorado. but
since then we haven't been able to do it," said Bechard of Kansas' first conference game of the season.
Bechard said beating Missouri would be difficult.
At 7 tonight, Kansas faces Missouri (14-2, 5-2) in Columbia, Mo. Missouri has been surprising Big 12 teams all season, posting a 7-0 home record. All of this after 10-21, 4-16 conference records in '99.
"We're playing well, we just aren't finishing," said Kylie Thomas, sophomore outside hitter. "We just need to keep pushing ourselves when we're ahead."
Pulling out a win tonight would tie the Jayhawks in the schools' all-time series, which Missouri leads 31-30.
However, Missouri, now ranked No. 24 in the nation, won't just lay down tonight for the sake of series balance. And the "Hawks know this, as they beat Missouri twice last year, with the second match going to five games.
"We're going to go out and play our best," Thomas said. "That's all we can do."

The Kansas football team received a welcome surprise yesterday when Fox Sports Net announced it planned to broadcast the Saturday, Oct. 21 Jayhawk homecoming game against Colorado. To accommodate Fox Sports, the game is scheduled for 11:30 a.m.
For a team reported to be a bit down on itself, a television date can't help but make it feel better, even if it is earlier than the usual early afternoon or evening kickoff times.
play a morning game than sit around waiting for a 6 p.m. game.
"I feel early games are better because you leave the hotel when you wake up, eat breakfast ... wake up ready to go — (and) don't have to wait until 6 o'clock games," he said. "Those are pretty much harder."
Senior free safety Carl Nesmith, also a co-captain, said he didn't have a problem starting a game at 11:30 a.m.
"I don't see any difference," he said. "I get up early anyway for game day. It just takes a little time off, and (you) get ready for the game a little faster."
Oddonetto was sick and missed practice yesterday because of what he said was the stomach flu. He will, however, play Saturday.
Senior co-captain Moran Norris, a fullback, said the important thing was being on television — not what time the game started.
"It's cool. It's on TV — get national exposure," he said. "I guess being a senior, you like playing on TV, so you can catch other people's eyes. They might see something they like."
Coach Terry Allen said Saturday after losing to Kansas State that the Jayhawks would build on what they have, repair some egos and prepare to play Missouri, which last week beat Oklahoma State 24-10. This week, he put that plan into action.
The Jayhawks want to show TV viewers and fans a better performance than they have in the last two weeks.
"We'll have to see how we react to all of this," Allen said. "Momentum and confidence is pretty critical, also. And obviously, it was a big win for Missouri last week. They come in with some confidence, and our game — obviously, it was a disheartening loss for us that led us to do something a little bit different.
"Hopefully, they respond from what we're doing. Obviously, we're changing our routine up because we saw some concerns."
Allen said that the running game and offensive line were struggling and that the offensive line needed to perform well

Coach must turn program around this season to salvage his job
Kansas football coach Terry Allen is approaching a fork in the road of college football coaching. Take the right path, and prosperity could await. But choose the wrong one, and it could spell the end of his Kansas career.
who is the beyonder.
Bob Frederick, Kansas athletics director,
announced yesterday that Allen would return
as coach of the Jayhawks next year, quieting
the speculation that Allen could be fired after
this season. But it seems as though Frederick
is giving Allen an ultimatum — win, and win
now. Or else.
For Allen, Saturday's game against Missouri is more than just a match-up of two college football rivals that are mediocre at best. It's the game that will define his career with the Jayhawks.
Win on Saturday, and this season won't be a total bust. The 'Hawks will be 3-3, and while a bowl bid is out of the question, a victory
against the Tigers could add a bright spot in the middle of a bleak Big 12 Conference schedule.
But lose, and it could spell the end.
Many people don't have a fond opinion of Allen right now. After yet another shellacking by Kansas State, who can blame them?
It doesn't help Allen's case that a number of formidable opponents loom on Kansas' horizon. The 'Hawks still must play Colorado, Nebraska and Texas — three teams they cannot beat. These games will only add fuel for Allen's critics.
And, really, the 'Hawks can't be expected to hang with teams such as Nebraska and K-State right off the bat. Judging by Kansas' level of play this season, the Jayhawks can't currently expect to be among the Big 12's leaders.
Sports Columnist
But improvements must take place for Allen

to keep his job at Kansas. He must prove the team is making strides to be able to compete with the "Huskers and Wildcats of the world." Getting blown out 52-13 against K-State is hardly an improvement from past years, and the Nebraska outcome could prove uglier. While it is unrealistic for Kansas to immediately be able to beat top teams, improvement must occur and it hasn't.
Allen also must prove he can mentally prepare his team. The botched punts in the Southern Methodist game, the five interceptions against Oklahoma and the first-drive fumble against K-State are mental mistakes that shouldn't happen. Good coaches instill mental toughness in the minds of their players, and Allen has not done that.
Allen must become a better recruiter. Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A. isn't exactly the center of the Earth, and top football recruits tend to head to more pleasant, sunny locales like Florida and Texas. How Bill Snyder gets top players to come to Manhattan may be a mystery, but Allen needs to find out how to recruit those same players to Lawrence. Two-year eligible junior college transfers such as Carl Nesmith and Dylen Smith are not the answer. Recruits need to be instilled with Allen's ideals from the moment they arrive
on campus, and stick with it for four or five years.
Allen is at a crossroads in his coaching career. The status of his future with the Jayhawks is dismal, and there is a definite end in sight. He must quiet the critics and prove he is a winner. He must prove he can recruit, train and produce top-notch, NFL-quality players. He must prove that Kansas football is heading in the right direction and not floating in a stagnant pond of constant failure. If he can't, Frederick should reconsider his decision and Allen should be fired.
Choose wisely, coach Allen. Saturday at Mizzou is the kind of game that can make or break a career. And if the 'Hawks can't start winning, yours at Kansas should be shattered.

Dig for buried treasure in December. Make plans for the future in February. Join up with your opposite in April. An old place seems brand-new in June. Kom knows best in July. Pay the piper in September.
To get an advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day. O the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
You should be in a feisty mood. A delicate, intellectual type could find you fascinating. You have a certain animal magnetism that's hard to resist. But, don't let it run rampant.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5.
Things may move a little too fast for your tastes. You might feel like the reuterie at a ping-pong tournament. Follow your routine and make sure the regular chores get done. Ignore whatever else is going on.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
Finally, some relief. A friend's eager to help you, but you'll need to maintain some control. Let this person know what to do to make sure you both end up winners. Your friend has the energy, but you've got the experience.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
The game board's changed. Now you have to contend with somebody who wants to be obeyed. Instead of resisting, have this work to your advantage. Figure out what this person wants or needs and find it. This could be quite profitable.

Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 5.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — today is a 5.

Today you may want to let your partner take the lead. Make sure you're both headed in the right direction. You're full of great ideas but may find it hard to choose among them. Let somebody else.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 4.
Hold your tongue around an irritating co-worker.
You may not have a chance to get a word in edgewise, anyway. Go along with the other person's agenda, for now. You can fix things later.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is an 8.
Love's on your mind, and you're not the only one
Stars could be in your eyes before this day is finished. If you've already got somebody in mind,
make the call. If you don't, a sporting event would
be a good place to find one.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
all it takes is a little work and a lot of money, or
the other way around. You can have your house
ready for company even if it's all torn up. Setting
priorities is a good way to start, and you're naturally
good at that.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 9.
Dreams come in all shapes and sizes, but this one looks fun. It can be done on a weeknight, too, not necessarily in the privacy of your home, either. How about booking a suite at that luxury hotel? They're sometimes cheaper on a Wednesday.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.

You can find a way to get what you want. It's complicated, but if it were easy, you would have done it by now. Private information leads to the money you need. Make sure you have a way to pay it back and that the interest rate's not too high.

Two qualify for main draw of tournament
Quentin Blakeeny ended a fourmatch winning streak yesterday, losing 6-3, 6-3 against Illinois' Philip Stolt at the Men's All-American Championships. During that streak, Blakeeny lost just one set en route to the qualifying round, including a 6-0, 6-3 win against North Carolina State's Ryan Boward in the final prequalifying match of the tournament, held in Stone Mountain, Ga.
Kansas' only other player at the tournament, senior Ed Dus, lost 6-0, 6-1 yesterday to Notre Dame's Javier Taborga.
Blakeney also teamed with sophomore Pete Stoeror for a doubles match yesterday, but lost 8-5 to Scott Bart and Takeshi Itoh of New Mexico.
"Quentin has had a terrific run to this point," Nwachukwu said in a statement, "He steamed the
Despite the losses, coach Ross Nwachukwu was pleased with Blakeney's play.

Undefeated Minnesota not afraid to mix it up
MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota
Vikings are 5.0 but still will tinker
By playing Randle at end, Tony Williams and nookie Chick Hovan were able to start together at the tackles. Green credited the move for holding the Bucs to 63 yards rushing; many stops came on key third downs.
The Vikings' biggest switch Monday night in a 30-23 victory against Tampa Bay was moving John Randle from defensive tackle to end.
He said opponents not knowing whether Randle was playing inside or outside was to their advantage.
Randle's first sack came on Monday night's next-to-last play. He still thinks Randle, who is constantly double-teamed, will join Reggie White as the only player to record 10 sacks in each of nine seasons. Randle would need nine sacks in the Vikings' final 11 games to get there.
Though Randle's move was considered a success, Green said he thought the defensive line needed to put more pressure on Tampa Bay quarterback Shaun King. Talane Sawyer recorded the Vikings' only other sack.
"We did not get as much pressure as we wanted to." Green said.

Rugby team defeats ranked opponent
By Michael Sudhalter
Kansan sportswriter
sports@kansan.com
The Kansas Club Rugby team had a weight lifted off of its shoulders this weekend when the team won the Heart of America tournament in south Kansas City, Mo., for the first time since 1985.
The team reached its pinnacle in the championship game with a 19-18 squeaker against long-time nemesis Truman State.
Truman State has three All-American players on its roster and is ranked nationally in the Top 20. The Jayhawks' victory was their first win against Truman State since 1993.
Jason Ahrens, Oakley senior, scored two trys, — the rugby equivalent of a touchdown — for the Jayhawks. Danny Kehr, Prarie Village junior, scored the winning try with three minutes remaining in the game.
"As a young team, this game made us realize that we have the ability to compete with anyone," said Rocco Danna, St. Louis senior
The Jayhawks intend to prove
that their victory against Trumar State was not just luck when they travel to Kirksville, Mo., on Saturday, November 4 for a match.
The team has newly found confidence because of its victory.
"We are gonna stick it to them," Danna said.
Other members of the team said they were completely suprised by the victory against the perennial Heart of America champions.
"I thought this would be more of a rebuilding year," Ahrens said. "We were able to find the right mix of people who played the hardest they ever played."
Danna compared the victory against Truman State to what a football victory against a Big 12 Conference powerhouse would mean to the Kansas football program.
"Like Nebraska in football, Truman are the golden boys of our league," Danna said. "They are bigger than we are but we just wanted it more than they did."
Before the win against Truman State, but it had to pull double duty Saturday with first and second round games on the same day.
In the opener, the 'Hawks defeated Missouri 18-6 with trys from Ahrens; Jason Daal, Wichita senior; and John Davidson, Olathe senior.
The victory against the Tigers set up a matchup with Nebraska, a competitive team that gave national rugby powerhouse Wyoming a scare. The Jayhawks defeated the 'Huskers 22-13 with points from J.P. Davies, Overland Park junior, Daal and Ahrens, who scored on a breakaway run.
Because of their stellar performances, six members of the team will be heading to Dallas this weekend to compete with the Heart of America All-Star Squad. The participants are Davies; Ahrens; Kehr; Kurt Whittington, Lawrence senior; Kacey Slusher, Leavenworth freshman; and Matt Kenney, Park Hill, Mo. sophomore.
Overall, the team was pleased with its performance this weekend.
"This weekend was amazing and euphoric," Ahrens said. "It was a great team effort."

KC basketball team to feature former Jayhawks
By Michael Rigg
sports@kanson.com
Kansas sportwriter
Kansas City's latest professional sports team definitely will have a Lawrence flair to it.
The Kansas City Knights will begin play on Dec. 26 as part of ABA 2000, the nation's latest venture into minor-league basketball. And while the Knights' official colors are silver, green and purple, the team might as well add crimson and blue because of its Jayhawk connections.
Knights coach Kevin Pritchard was a point guard at Kansas from 1987-90 and a starter on the 1988 national championship team. Already, Pritchard has used his Jayhawk ties to sign 2000 Kansas alumnus Nick Bradford to a contract. Bradford participated in the team's open tryouts in the last week of September and was offered a contract last week.
Pritchard said he was impressed by Bradford's all-around game.
"We had those open tryouts, and he played extremely well," Pritchard said. "He actually shot the ball well, and we decided to sign him."
Pritchard also has been in contact with 1999 Kansas grad Ryan Robertson. Robertson played for the NBA's Sacramento Kings last season, but told the team he didn't plan to return.
"We've been talking to Ryan, and it's just a matter of hammering it
out." Pritchard said.
The Kansas ties and the proximity of the Lawrence campus had helped the team immensely, Pritchard said.
"Right now, I'm just trying to get the best team together," Pritchard said. "Fortunately, KU is very close, and we're looking forward to getting more of those players."
Briefly:
Open tryouts for the men's basketball team begin at Allen Fieldhouse Sunday.
All Kansas students need to do is bring a proof of a physical exam and proof of health insurance to the men's basketball offices at Wagnon Student Athlete Center by today and they are eligible for the tryouts.
The walk-on candidates will be supervised by assistant coach Ben Miller. Miller said that he expected about 60 students to attend the fourday tryout and that a player being added to the team from the tryouts was a definite possibility.
"I think this year is pretty wide open," Miller said. "To be honest, last year we had 14 players returning on the team, so it wasn't really a possibility."
This season, 12 players already are on the Jayhawk roster, but Miller said he would have to wait and see if any walk-ons were worthy of being added to the roster.
Miller said the coaches looked at several different aspects while evaluating a player.
"We do breakdown drill work, we see if they're coachable and then we
BASKETBALL TRYOUTS
What: Kansas men's basketball tryouts. The first tryout session is Sunday, with the number of prospective players being cut to about 25 on Monday. Any walkons approved by the coaching staff will be notified later in the week.
Who can try out: Any student with proof of both a physical exam and health insurance can participate. The proof is due today at Wagnon Student Athlete Center.
Chance of making the team:
Kansas assistant coach Ben Miller said that the team had returned only 12 players this year and that it was possible for walk-on players to be added.
scrimpine and see what kind of game shape they're in." Miller said.
Miller said the coaches didn't have a particular type of player in mind.
"This year, we could be looking for a number of things." Miller said. "We could be looking for someone on the perimeter, someone who can handle the ball, and we could be looking for someone with size. Coach (Roy Williams) says if you see someone who can really help us in practice, then we need to take a long look at them."
Miller said the 60 players would probably be cut down to around 25 Monday. Players will find out by nest Wednesday or next Thursday whether they have made the team.

team chemistry.
When Stanley Redwine became the Kansas cross country coach this year, his main concern was becoming comfortable and acquainted with both the men's and women's teams.
"Our largest improvement has been the team working together," Redwine said. "We could only look at potential at the start of the season. The teams are enjoying one another while working toward a goal."
Redwine said the runners had a different attitude at the start of the season. By changing their attitudes, Redwine said, the runners had blended into a strong nucleus.
"At first, our runners were worried about where they were going to fit in on the team," Redwine said. "But now, everyone wants to contribute and make the team better."

Junior Brent Behrens, who Redwine said was the men's most consistent runner, said he was not
"We're a really close group," he said. "We've all been together for the past couple of years and we've continued to work as a team. We're always there to help each other out."

Redwine said he anticipated a strong finish out of his players, but they must work extremely hard to succeed at the Big 12 Championships. Redwine said Saturday's Chili Pepper Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark., would be an indicator of the steady improvement the Kansas runners have made.

for the offense to succeed.
"I've always believed that the offensive line is the key to a successful offense," he said.
"This week, we just made everything live," he said. "Everything's full-speed blocking. The only thing you can't do is tackle. (We) try to get used to playing at the higher level — do that, and hopefully, we'll play better Saturday."
The Jayhawks normally don't practice on Mondays, but they did this Monday in an attempt to improve team performance and get the team focused on what's ahead. Oddonetto said the practices also included more contact than usual.
Nesmith said the Jayhawks shouldn't be down — they should recognize the ability of the last two teams they played and look to the future.
"First of all, the last two weeks we played two Top 10 teams," he said. "We haven't played well and performed like we were supposed to as a team, but the confidence hasn't gone down that bad because even with all the mistakes we made, we can still make up for them. We've got a six-game season ahead of us."
Norris said that as a co-captain, he could bring a more positive attitude to the team.
Nesmith said the Jayhawks would beat Missouri on Saturday.
"Just tell the guys out there to relax," he said. "Don't put too much pressure on them. Tell them to relax. Some guys can't play under pressure, and some can."
"We're going in with a lot of confidence, and we could beat them," he said. "We beat them last year, and they're looking for a little revenge, but we're going in with the focus on winning the game."

College Football Nebraska's trials are self-inflicted
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — No. 1 Nebraska has found a way to win the few times it has been tested so far this season.
In the recent games, the tadpoles run buoys.
win the few times it has been tested so far this season.
In its second game, it took a touchdown run by quarterback Eric Crouch in overtime to finally defeat Notre Dame. Last week, the "Huskers rallied from a halftime deficit and scored four fourth-quarter touchdowns to beat Iowa State.
Coach Frank Solich wished his team would find a way to win a little earlier in each game.
"When they have been against the wall, they have generally responded," Solich said yesterday. "We also want to respond when our backs are not against the wall."
The 'Huskers (5-0, 2-0 Big 12 Conference) are happy to be back on top of the polls after spending a week at No. 2 in the Associated Press Top 25. However, they say they haven't been playing up to their potential.
Iowa State contained Nebraska's offense until the second half, when the 'Huskers eventually wore down the Cyclones and consistently moved the ball.
"That's one thing that I'd like to see change." Crouch said. "I'd like to come out in the first half and dominate right from the beginning.
"We can do that. We're the type of offense that can put away games early," he said.
The 'Huskers have made fewer errors each week. In their season opener against San Jose State, they couldn't seem to tackle in the first half. Then the special teams fell apart against Notre Dame, allowing two
returns for touchdowns.
Once the kicking game was fixed, the defense gave up nearly 500 yards to Missouri.
Last week, the offense took a half to get it together. Solich said the 'Huskers stopped themselves with major breakdowns on 14 plays.
"We scored a fair number of points, but if we were really operating at great efficiency
N
fukers
we would have scored quite a few more points," he said. "That's the thing we want to try to make sure we get corrected offensively.
"As experienced as we are, you can't expect to throw 14 plays down the drain and expect to get the production that you feel you should have," he said.
Still. Solich felt Saturday's win against Iowa State
was more complete than the team's wins against Iowa and Missouri. That number was balanced out by 'Tuskers holding the Cyclones to only 37 rushing vards.
"It's kind of nice, but I don't feel like it affects me or the team that much," he said. "That's one of the reasons we stay focused each week. We don't think about the polls or any of those ratings."
The Iowa State win and Florida State's loss to Miami put the "Huskers back at No. 1, considerably ahead of second-ranked Kansas State. Crouch said Nebraska didn't get too stressed when they fell to No. 2.
Nebraska plays at Texas Tech (5-1, 1-1) on Saturday The Red Raiders' offensive scheme is nearly the opposite of the 'Huskers' passing the ball 64 percent of the time and averaging more than 303 yards per game in the air.
Solich said Nebraska's defense will continue to focus first on the run.
"When they get you spread out, it just takes a small crease for one of their great backs to pop through and make a big play on you," Solich said. "We're really concentrating hard on stopping or slowing down the running game, then from there controlling what they do best."
Georgia coach accused of mistreating player
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Georgia Tech had just finished a routine practice when coach George O'Leary decided to teach a hard lesson to a second-string offensive lineman who was struggling to make his blocks.
O'Leary handed 314-pound Dustin Vaitekunas a football and told him to stand alone against four defensive lineman coming at full speed. The coach said the foursome wasn't supposed to hit Vaitekunas, only give him an idea of how a quarterback feels when blockers miss their assignments.
But Vaitekunas was pummeled by at least two of his teammates, leaving him sprawled on the ground for several minutes, gassing for breath.
Vaitekunas left Georgia Tech the following day and vows never to return, and his mother is threatening to pursue criminal charges against O'Leary. The coach said it was simply a breakdown in communication and he would never do anything to harm a student athlete.
"I think the whole thing is getting blown out of proportion," O'Leary said Tuesday. "My track record is pretty good with my players. I coach hard but I coach fair."
Still, the case comes after Bob Knight lost his basketball coaching job at Indiana after striking a player in the
"I see this as assault and battery. I want O'Leary arrested." Wanda Charpring, the player's mother, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in a story published Tuesday. "He tried to kill my son."

Braine conducted his own investigation of the Sept. 25 practice and found no reason to discipline O'Leary. Thompson did not immediately return a message left at ACC headquarters in Greensboro, N.C.
athletics director Dave Braine and David Thompson, the Atlantic Coast Conference's assistant commissioner for NCAA compliance.
"George is not a brutal coach," said Braine, adding that he watches at least two practices a week. "He did not intend for that kid to get hurt."
At first glance, the incident seems tame in comparison to the harsh treatment doled out by old coaches such as Bear Bryant, Woody Hayes and Vince Lombardi. But times have changed. Coaches are expected to treat players with a degree of civility and respect. Blatant physical punishment is off limits.
"You can't put George O'Leary in the same league with Bobby Knight," Braine said. "He's never had anything like this happen before. He's never had a complaint. He's trying to do the right thing."
Vaitekunas said he thought the drill was an attempt to make him quit the team because he wasn't playing up to O'Leary's expectations.
"You expect to get hit. That's football." Vaitekunas told the newspaper. He said what O'Leary did crossed the line.
Charpring and Vaitekunas did not immediately return a message left by The Associated Press at her home in Chapin, S.C.
"He just stood there," Gathers said. "I don't know if he was fatigued or what. But he didn't protect himself."
Defensive end Greg Gathers was one of the players who took part in the drill. He said O'Leary yelled at the last second for the defensive linemen not to hit Valitekunas, but only two of them — Felipe Claybrooks and Nick Rogers — had time to pull up. Gathers and Merrix Watson went through with their hits.
"He was a very soft person. He didn't have a lot of heart." Brown said. "It was nothing excessive. He hasn't been practicing very well or playing very well. It was just a little discipline thing."
"He's a human being. Some people are probably going to look at coach O'Leary and say he's a sick man," Gathers said. "But that's not the case. Coach O'Leary said to pull up, and some guys pulled up."
Gathers was more sympathetic.
O'Leary pointed out that Vaitkeunas wasn't the only offensive lineman who took part in the drill. Another backup tackle, Jason Kemble, faced the same four rushers, but only after they were told explicitly to avoid any contact
The coach said he was "annoyed" with the players who struck Vaitekaunes.
"I wanted to show what a speed rush looks like from the quarterback's stand-point," O'Leary said. "I didn't expect those guys to tackle him. That was my mistake. I should have communicated better. But we never tackle the quarterback in practice. I was surprised it happened."
Coaches center of Kansas State Oklahoma game
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — The focus this week as No. 8 Oklahoma prepares to visit second-ranked Kansas State has centered more on the coaches than the teams.
"That your job, to create interest for people who grab the paper and pick it up and read it, or for someone calling your radio show, and stir up emotions." Stoops said at his weekly news conference yesterday.
Bob Stoops, who hired three K-State assistants after becoming Oklahoma's coach, said the media have things all wrong.
"But as a staff, I think there's mutual respect. I've always said I loved my time there. I wouldn't trade it for anything."
Stops spent seven years as an assistant under Bill Snyder at K-State before leaving to become defensive coordinator at Florida. After three years with the Gators, he was chosen to take the top job at Oklahoma.
Q
Shortly after, he hired his brother. Mike, along with
Brent Venables and Mark Mangino, all of whom were K-State assistants at the time.
"This is a great school, and to be loyal to my family and to Oklahoma, I need to hire the best coaches I can find." Bob Stoops said. "To me, that's doing the job and being loyal to what you're doing now. All I did was offer some guys some jobs and they accepted them."
The defections stung some K-State fans, however. Mike Stoops and Venables, who were defensive coaches at K-State, accepted their Oklahoma jobs within days of the Wildcats' loss to Texas A&M in the Big 12 Conference title game. It was arguably the toughest loss in school history — a victory would have sent them to play for the national championship. Instead, they wound up in the Alamo Bowl.
Mangino, who had been recruiting coordinator and run game coordinator with the Wildcats, was offered the Oklahoma job shortly after the Big 12 championship game but didn't accept it until after the bowl game.
Bob Stoops said it would likely feel different walking in the visitor's locker room on Saturday afternoon. But he said the game wouldn't be more emotional for him than any other game Oklahoma would play.
Sooner Notes
"The programs are more important than anything personally," he said. "It has nothing to do at all with the football game. It's about our players."
Stoops said Ron Calcagni, who had been working as a graduate assistant after being fired last year as Oklahoma State's offensive coordinator, has left to become offensive coordinator of the New Jersey franchise in the XFL.

Negative responses not representative of K-State
I read last Friday's column in the Kansan about the Kansas State game. As a K-State alum, I would like to think that the e-mails you received after last year's column were not real K-Staters, but some simple-minded Nebraskan posing as a 'Cat. But I realize there are a few, probably from both universities, whose family tree does not have any branches on it, and those people have to be taken as who they are and not as representative of the entire student-fan-alumni base of each school.
I also would like to assure you that the vast majority of K-State fans do not preach violence against the media, unless your name is Brent Musberger or Terry Bowden. I truly enjoy the light-hearted exchange before the annual Sunflower Showdown and most of us see it for what it is — fun. Please tell the columnist of this year's exchange that most K-Stater's realize it's in fun, so please, bring on the trash talk!

School rivalry should be bold in the spirit of fun
I am a 41-year-old hybrid: K-State undergraduate and KU law school graduate. You need to know that I bleed purple, especially in football season, and used to hate everything about KU and Lawrence. Then I spent three years there and came away feeling that KU and Lawrence (or the "Flaw on the Kaw," as my Dad used to say) were not really that bad after all.
I have three daughters and if they were to tell me that they want to attend KU instead of K-State, I would tell them to go ahead.
I read the column before the K-State game and couldn't have agreed more. The rivalry is supposed to be fun. That's what a rivalry is. That's why I read the *Kansan* that day: to see what was being said.
How boring is it if nothing inflammatory is written? Back in my day, it seemed that the rivalry was a little more rabid, perhaps because both teams stunk, but all the taunting seemed to be in fun.
There were some great signs hanging all across Lawrence when K-State came to town and vice versa in Manhattan. My personal favorite from Lawrence was, "K-State: where men are men and sheep are nervous."
But I digress. Back to the point.
Keep trying to keep the rivalry alive.
Keep stirring the pot. But be nice.

Column is welcome fuel for traditional rivalry
First of all, smile!
As a Wildcat alumnus, I have always enjoyed the rivalry between KU and Kansas State. Shawn Linenberger's column last Friday in the K-State Collegian was quite the piece of work. There were only two truths in it, the advantage you gave to K-State in the two rather intagible areas, but the rest, as usual in the spirit of the rivalry, you totally distort or misrepresent
But more importantly, I enjoyed the reading. Glad to see this thing being carried on. Nothing like keeping the showdown in perspective, or lack of it in your case.
Keep it up! It's all in vain, but keep it up!

School rivalry kept alive with T-shirt collection
Shawn, I enjoyed your column and opinion. I attended K-State from '84 to '88, and yes, I do still have a "I'm a Stan Fan" button, a Lee "Moon the Sooners" homecoming shirt and a "You can beat our Wildcats but you'll never Lick our Dickey" shirt as well. I love the rivalry. Oh, I forgot to mention that I also attended the Toilet Bowl tie between our teams back when we went 10-1-1, and I also breathed the tear gas at the Aggieville riot. I'm wearing Wranglers right now.

Fan thinks Kansan column displayed respect, pride
Hello, my name is Eric Stafford and I am a junior in public relations at Kansas State University. I am writing regarding the written article by Seth Jones in the *Kansan* last Wednesday about the KU/K-State rivalry.
My girlfriend of two years goes to KU, and I get to see the best of both worlds as the saying goes. I am not writing to badmouth the University of Kansas nor the writers at the Kansan. I am writing because I thought that last Wednesday's page was a great display of respect, courage and pride and
I would like to commend you for that.
I remember clearly how upset I was after I read the article last year as Mr. Jones appeared as a guest columnist in our paper. As my girlfriend read the article that appeared in today's paper to me, I found myself with a great feeling of respect for Mr. Jones. In fact, just the other day, a writer from our school wrote an article about the KU/K-State rivalry and I was just as upset as I was last year. It wasn't just the fun trash-talking that fans do. The writer took the same cheap shots toward us last year, such as stereotyping students and listing "10 ways that KU students are jealous of us." I can only think of one, our football team. I don't want the memories of my college years to consist of the ignorance that plagues many of the students who I attend this prestigious institution with. I am willing to bet that most of our students don't go to Lawrence on a regular basis, so they really don't have an idea what they are writing about. It is all stereotypes on both sides.
It takes a lot of strength to write what you did, Mr. Jones, and I commend you for that. Maybe the small number of us that sees the world the way that you and I do can fix the way our rivalry is played out. I think that something needs to change because it is the best damn rivalry in the whole country.
Whoever receives this, I would like to get a reply just to make sure that me and my fellow Wildcats are heard. Thank you for the article.
Kindest Regards.
Eric Stafford K-State junior
'Cats fan thinks column supported stereotypes
I hesitate to write you because by doing this, I'm giving you exactly what you want: a response.
1. K-State = Hick school.
I'm only going to comment on a few things about Shawn Linenberger's column on Friday.
If you are going to bust out the stereotypes, then let's not forget the Phish-following, acid-dropping, rainbow-happy, liberal hippies running around in Lawrence. I'll take a tobacco-chewing K-State girl any day of the week.
You slip this into your column ever so craftily. I bet you assumed KU would beat Southern Methodist too, right?
2. Nebraska = Big 12 North Champ
Ok, this is just bad journalism. It's "Every Man a Wildcat."
3. "Everyone a Wildcat."
I remember what home field advantage did for KU on a wet, rainy day two years ago. I doubt Zac Wegner remembers anything at all from that day. Is it still considered a home game when the stands are filled with the visiting team's colors? I was just wondering.
4. Memorial Stadium = KU advantage.
5. KU has played a top-15 team. They can add getting spanked by a top 5 team to their resume after Saturday.
Jeff Elliott K-State senior
'Hawks disappointing with poor sportsmanship
To the school down I-70: Another Sunflower Showdown in the books, and although history is on KU's side for the total number of victories in the history of the event, it's time to look to the future. As a Wildcat alumni, I know the competitive spirit between the two schools in everything between the two schools — not just football.
But there is a difference between our football team and yours. In interviews after the game, Wildcat players had good things to say about the KU team, which played much better against us this year than last. They didn't say it was easy, or that Kansas was a terrible team. Respecting one's opponent is a sign of a class-act program — one Bill Snyder has built from the ground up.
However, I saw several interviews with KU football players who said the Jayhawks should have won, and that KState is not a high-caliber team. In my book, I'd call them sore losers. It takes courage for a player to admit he or she was outplayed on the field, apparently something Kansas has failed to admit for some time now. What concerned me the most was how the Kansas players have somehow fallen into the "victim mentality" when it comes to their losses.
"We should have been able to get it into the end zone."
"We could have made those catches."
"If we would have done this or that."
Could have / should have / would have. If you should have been doing it, then correct your mistakes and execute your game plan.
Everyone has mentioned the weak K-State non-conference schedule. Well, we're into conference play, and we are 2-0, both wins being sizable margins, and both on the road. And something
about K-State, each week they fine tune the plays and get better and better.
As for the comments about not being a national champion contender, I'd say our chances of getting to the big game in January are better than KU's basketball team getting past the second round of March Madness.
But the best thing that could happen for the state of Kansas would be for both schools to work on their other sport — K-State on basketball and KU on football.
As for the rest of the season for KU give 'em hell and hope you make it to a bowl game! As the Wildcats bowl bound for sure — and with recent losses in the Southeast Conference, our chances for the Bowl Championship Series Big Dance are getting better.

'Cats should have kept Ahearn and school spirit
Shawn
Being a student at K-State and a Wildcat fan, I can't say as though I agree with your prediction for Saturday's game, but I would like to agree with you on one point—"the mistake known as Bramlage Coliseum." I know that it won't mean a great deal to you coming from a stupid K-State freshman, but thank you for pointing out what is painfully obvious to everyone in the state except the "powers that be" at K-State.
Notice the connection between K-State's last highly competitive basketball team 1987-88 (also the year Kansas won the national title), and the last year playing in traditional Ahearn Fieldhouse.
Coincidence? I think not. For all its niceties, Bramlage has no atmosphere, and any home court advantage is gone. If K-State was smart it would move back into Ahearn and blow up Bramlage. If KU's administration has anything between its ears at all, it will continue play in Allen Fieldhouse until the place literally falls in on top of Roy Williams and his team (maybe K-State would have a shot against KU that year).
Sorry to waste your time, but I thought your article was interesting and well written, except for the sub liminal messages about silos and chewing tobacco, and of course your prediction for the game. It was nice to see that someone else agrees with me about Bramlage.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas Against Colorado, Texas A&M's special teams couldn't even count on what they usually do.
Texas A&M hadn't had a punit blocked since the 1999 Sugar Bowl against Ohio State, but Colorado did just that Saturday, setting up a touchdown and denting the Aggies' invincibility at Kyle Field with a 26-19 victory.
It broke a string of 702 consecutive accurate extra points, field goals and punt snaps for Aggie snappers. It was the team's first home loss in 22 games.
Despite the miscues, coach R.C. Slocum isn't having tryouts this week.
"We inexplicably had a difficult time snapping the ball," Slocum said. "If we don't have that problem, then we win the game period."

dnesday, it was business as usual.
"We've been so good at it, it's a big deal when we miss," Slocum said. "In 12 years, we've
ATM
never had one single punk that was bad because of a bad snap. That's a phenomenal record."
A bad snap in the first quarter by Chance Pearce cost the Aggies a safety and a blocked punt caused by a bounce snap set up a 4-yard drive to the go-ahead touchdown and a 19-13 Colorado lead with 2:09 to go in the third quarter.
The Aggies never recovered.
"Someone pointed out if you play catch from five feet, sooner or later, someone will miss. That's just the way it is," Pearce said.
Rain and wind persisted through most of the game, but Pearce didn't take that out.
"On that play, everything just flew out, I lost all focus and concentration." Pearce said. "It's you and the punter out there. Believe me, it's something that I will never forget."
Kicker Terence Kitchens hit 5-for-6 on field goals until he missed two field goal attempts and an extra point against the Buffaloes
He missed field goal tries of 45 and 50 yards and also missed an extra point after A&M's second touchdown.
The Aggies had rain for the first time this season, breaking out of a long dry spell.
"The conditions definitely were a factor, especially for the snappers," Kitchens said. "The ball was very slippery to snap and I had to adjust
too. I had to be more over the ball because of the wet field."
Special teams coach Shawn Slocum blamed the weather conditions on Kitchen's missed 45-yarder.
"He told me on the sidelines he hit it right where he aimed it," Shawn Slocum said. "It's like in golf going for the green with the wind. You aim for the sand trap and the wind pulls it back. This time the wind stopped and he hit the sand trap."
Kitchens' missed 50-yarder was a rush play as time ran out in the first half. He had just enough time to get the ball off but missed.
"I'm not going to make it bigger than it is," R.C. Slocum said. "When you have the same guys doing something as long as he has he doesn't just all of a sudden can't do it anymore. We'll just continue to give it attention."

Defense, special teams key to win
Chiefs, Raiders to play for lead in AFC West
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Returning from their bye week, the Kansas City Chiefs went to work on two of the most disappointing phases of their game — run defense and lack of big plays on special teams.
In their first five games, the Chiefs (3-2) have failed to block a kick or get a big return on a punt or kickoff.
The Oakland Raiders (4-1), who come to town Saturday in a showdown for the AFC West lead, have blocked two kicks, including the potential game-winning field goal in an overtime victory last week against San Francisco.
"I think they've been magnificent," said Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham of the Raiders. "The one (against San Francisco) shocks me. You don't let a guy jump through the tight end gap. They've done a great job. They've got a lot of speed on their roster to do that."
The Chiefs are hoping their return game will be enhanced by rookie Dante Hall, who missed the first four games with an injury.
"With the addition of Dante being well, sooner or later we're going to have a breakout where we score a touchdown or get a big return on a punt return or a kickoff return." Cunningham said. "What happens, whether it's offense, defense or special teams, a big play catapults you to the upper echelon of those areas."
Hall, who was drafted mainly as a replacement for departed kick returner Tamarick Vanover, finally was able to play when the Chiefs played Seattle at Kansas City on October 2. He did not break one, but he showed promise.
"On a kickoff return, there were five guys who missed him clean," Cunningham said. "What the blocking unit needs to do is see that and get their timing down. When you change returners, the timing is not there. That's what we're trying to improve on."
While the defensive line has been effective rushing the passer, accounting for all but one of their 17 sacks, the run defense has been soft. Through five games they have allowed 140

yards on the ground each game, which places them 25th in the league.
we're missing some gaps and a couple of times — more than a couple — our young defensive backs are not getting the call quickly enough," Cunningham said. "The adjustments are not quite there. And those are the things you have to go through with the youth and change we have on defense, and moving players around. All those things are causes for the defense to break down. I think we're going to correct it in time."
Cunningham took issue with the suggestion that his youthful secondary, which sometimes includes three rookies, has been the major problem on run defense.
"It's more of a mental process you've got to go through," he said. The defensive line has made a couple of errors. The linebackers have been involved in breakdowns, and the secondary has. But it's all correctable. It's going to take a lot of hard work by the players and coaches."
Arizona player determined to beat cancer
The Associated Press
TEMPE, Ariz. — The lines seem so tired and phony. A college basketball team is a family. A coach is like a second father.
For Justin Allen, a 19-year-old sophomore at Arizona State, the sentiments are as real as the cancer discovered in his body 3 1/2 weeks ago.
Doctors say the odds favor a full recovery, and Allen and his family have decided that his bond with the Sun Devils' program is so strong that he should stay in school and with his teammates while he fights the disease.
"It's more than just a team," Allen said. "We're a family. When I came out here, I adopted new brothers. The coach is like my parent. His wife is like my mom. She brought me tons of cookies in the hospital. I love it out here."
Allen left a small high school in Malta, Ill., an hour's drive from Chicago, to join the rebuilding effort of coach Rob Evans in Tempe. He was one of seven freshmen who played for the Sun Devils last season, averaging 2.9 points and 1.9 rebounds per game.
"I've been trying to fight some battles to get out of a small school and get to a big program, then once I get there this happens," Allen said. "But it's one more hurdle that's going to make me stronger."
During the summer, Allen had beefed up his 6-foot-7 frame to 230 pounds.
Then in late August, while working out in Illinois, he felt what he thought was a pulled stomach muscle. Back at Arizona State, the team trainer noticed Allen was lethargic and losing weight.
On Sept. 15, he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease, one of two types of lymphoma, a cancer that attacks the lymph system.
The disease was detected early, and doctors gave him a 90 percent
"I was scared at first, but with all the support I have everyone's got my back I know that I'm going to get through it."

"I keep thinking about Mario Lemieux and Andres Galarraga," Allen said of two sports stars who successfully resumed careers after cancer treatment. "They came back and had great years. I just want to get through this and go for it next year."
chance of recovery.
Allen said his mother initially wanted to take him home to Illinois.
"Once she came out here, she saw the support I had from everybody, saw the doctors I had, she said there was no way she would take me home because it's such a
great situation out here," he said. The night Allen was diagnosed, Evans held a team meeting in the room of player Chad Prewitt.
great situation out here," he said.
"It was a very tough night talking to those guys about it." Evans said.
"A lot of tears because these guys are very close. But after that we talked about making sure we were here for him, we strong for him and certainly these guys will be."

Allen has lost 30 pounds in the past few weeks. He began chemotherapy treatments last Friday, and they will continue every two weeks for four to six months. That will be followed by several weeks of radiation treatment.
In the meantime, he plans to enroll in school and take 12 or 13 hours of credits. He wants to attend every practice, every game.
"I was scared at first," Allen said, "but with all the support I have — everyone's got my back — I know that I'm going to get through it. I've just got to keep a positive attitude, and I'll be fine.
"I know I'm going to beat it.
There's no doubt at all."

Movie portrays political scandal
The Associated Press
As Laine, Allen plays a fiercely intelligent, liberal-minded Democratic senator tapped by the president (Bridge) to replace his deceased vice president. Oldman leads the opposition, which is trying to derail Laine's nomination.
If only the political leaders who criticize Hollywood for a lack of positive role models had just a fraction of the virtuous, unimpeachable nature of Laine Hanson, the political role model extraordinaire in the riveting White House saga The Contender.
Opponents use Laine's abortion-rights stand and her disdain for religion as ammunition, but their main weapon is a group-sex encounter she supposedly had in college. Offended, Laine refuses to answer questions about her sexual past, insisting "It is simply beneath my dignity."
Most important, The Contender has timing. This tale of a vice-presidential hopeful caught up in lurid innuendo about her sex life comes as the nation prepares to move on from years of lurid innuendo under Bill Clinton.
Thoughts naturally turn to the Clinton investigation as the likely inspiration for The Contender. Writer-director Rod Lurie says he actually drew more from the Clarence Thomas hearings for the Supreme Court, since those also dealt with unsubstantiated allegations of past sexual behavior.
The movie has plenty going for it: a terrific cast led by Joan Allen, Jeff Bridges and Gary Oldman, a captivating story line and a sharp script.
In contrast to the pettiness that characterized impeachment attacks on Clinton and his own linguistic legerdemain during the Lewinsky sex scandal, the movie gives us the nobility of Laine Hanson (Allen) and her commitment to personal ideals at any cost.
The son of political cartoonist Ranan Lurie, the director obviously relishes both the subtleties and the bluntness of insider politics. The Contender clips along with the bawdy, tawdry energy of fine palace intrigue.
Allen delivers with passion and sophistication. But Laine is like an idealization of a leader from Plato's world of forms, set against real political hacks from the world of shadows. She is perhaps too good to exist and thrive in the real Washington. But it sure would be nice.
Distributed by DreamWorks, The Contender runs 126 minutes and is rated R for sexual content and language.

Toronto manager among those fired
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Jim Fregosi was fired yesterday as manager of the Toronto Blue Jays after two seasons of third-place finishes.
The decision came after a season in which Toronto finished 83-79. Fregosi's contract expired at the end of the season.
General manager Gord Ash was in Florida to meet with Fregosi, who had a gut feeling that he would be told his two-year term with the club was finished.
"We had a good two years. Toronto is a great city and was a lot of fun." Fregosi said from his home in Tarpon Springs. "There was a decision from an organizational standpoint that they didn't want me back."
Fregosi is the sixth manager to be fired since the season ended, joining Terry Francona (Philadelphia), Buck Showalter (Arizona). Gene Lamont
(Pittsburgh), Jack McKeon (Reds) and Davey Johnson (Los Angeles).
BLUEJAYS
Fregosi said he would not be interested in another position within the Toronto organization but he would like to remain in the game.
"We'll wait and see what happens," he said. "But yes, I would like to continue to manage."
two members of Fregosi's coaching staff, Bobby Knoop and Lee Elia, also will not return. Ash said he had spoken with them and had been told they did not wish to remain with the Blue Jays if Fregosi was fired.
The other coaches, including former manager and current hitting coach Cito Gaston, are believed to be safe. Gaston managed the Blue Jays to two World Series titles.
The Blue Jays set up a media conference call for later in the day with team president and CEO Paul Godfrey and Ash, who was given a three-year contract extension earlier in the day.
Fregosi, who also has managed the California Angels, Chicago White Sox and Philadelphia Phillies, compiled a 167-157 record with Toronto. Lagging attendance reportedly was one of the reasons the front office was contemplating a change.
Fregosi became manager of the Blue Jays with 13 games remaining in the 1999 spring training schedule after Tim Johnson was fired for lying about serving in Vietnam. The Jays finished 84-78 that season.
Top candidates to replace Fregosi reportedly include former Blue Jays star Paul Molitor, broadcaster Buck Martinez and one-time Toronto catcher Ernie Whitie.
Mariners bullpen exhausts Yankees
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Freddy Garcia and Seattle's bullpen put the New York Yankees right back in their postseason funk.
Garcia pitched 62-3 innings in a six-hitter, and Alex Rodriguez and Rickey Henderson supplied the offense, leading the Mariners to a 2-0 win last night against New York in the opener of the American League Championship Series.
Garcia, one of the young pitchers obtained two years ago from Houston in the Randy Johnson trade, allowed just three hits, struck out eight and handled the two-time World Series champions like an old pro.
The 24-year-old right-hander let runners reach third base in the third and fifth innings and escaped a two-on, no-outs jam
With the crowd on its feet, Mariners manager Lou Piniella stayed with Garcia, who struck out Paul O'Neill and Bernie
in the sixth.
Williams, then retired David Justice on a flyout Mike Cameron caught one step in front of the center-field fence. Jose Paniagua, Arthur Rhodes and Kazuhiro Sasaki combined for three-hit relief, with
SUNNY VALLEY

Sassak getting three outs for his third save of the playoffs
With the crowd again on its feet, Williams singled leading off the ninth as Sasaki repeatedly stepped off. Justice struck out, and Tino Martinez signed up the middle to
bring up Jorge Posada, who homered off Sasaki twice in three at-bats in the regular season.
But Sasaki got Posada to fly to right, and Luis Solo filed out to center to end it.
Seattle pitchers struck out 13, including Derek Jeter three times. The Mariners bullpen has pitched 14 scoreless innings in the postseason.
New York, which hit just 244 and scored only 19 runs in its 3-2 win against Oakland in the division series, was 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Sojo and Chuck Knoblauch had two hits each.
After taking a 6-0 lead over the Athletics in the first innning of Game 5, the Yankees have scored one run in their last 17 innings, looking like the tired, old team that lost 15 of its last 18 games during the regular season.
MARINERS 1,
YANKEES 0
What happened: Seattle pitcher Freddy Garcia pitched nearly flawlessly, giving the Mariners a 1-0 lead against the New York Yankees in the best-of-seven American League Championship Series.
What's next: The two teams play again this afternoon at 3 p.m. at Yankee Stadium in New York, Leffhander John Halaime, 14:9, will start for Seattle against Yankees right-hander Orlando Hernandez, 12-13.
Where you can see it: The game will be televised on NBC, chan
Kidney still ails Mourning
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Ailing Miami Heat center Alonzo Mourning, still weighing medical options and hoping to avoid a kidney transplant, visited practice yesterday for the first time since his illness was discovered.
"He's upbeat," said coach Pat Riley. "He walked in and lit the place up."
The prognosis remains uncertain, Heat officials said. A course of treatment for Mourning's apparent kidney disorder will likely be determined by next week after he has finished consulting with doctors, Riley said.
MIAMI HEAT
Mourning's foster mother. Fannie
Threat, said he had a rare kidney ailment that could require a transplant.
"He just said, 'Oh, it is bad, Mom. It is bad," she told The Palm Beach Post for yesterday's editions. Threet, interviewed by telephone from her home in Chesapeake, Va., raised Mourning from the time he was 12.
Threet said she spoke twice with Mourning since the ailment was discovered during a routine physical. She said
Mourning told her that doctors were hopeful they could find a kidney if it was necessarv.
When reporters pressed Heat players for information on Mourning's condition following practice yesterday, team media relations director Tim Donovan intervened.
is," Donovan said. "We're not lying to you." Mourning, 30, became a father for the second time and helped the U.S. Olympic team win the gold medal in Sydney last month. He was expected to lead a revamped Miami team widely considered the Eastern Conference favorite this season.
The All-Star center hasn't appeared in public since Oct. 3, when he attended Heat media day. Training camp began without him the following day.
Mourning spent about 90 minutes at the Heat's closed practice session yesterday. He met with Riley, stretched with teammates and rode a stationary bike long enough to break a sweat.
"I'm going to tell you: Don't be having a long face around him," Riley said. "He'll kick your rear. He's about attacking it and finding a plan, and he doesn't want to be around anybody who is feeling sorry for him."
The Heat departed for their first presseason game today at New Jersey. Mourning remained in Miami.
Expectations worry Cardinals
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Jim Edmonds,
whose bat propelled the St. Louis
Cardinals' surprising first-round
sweep of the Atlanta Braves, has
been worrying himself to sleep
these days wondering if he'll be
able to keep it up.
"My biggest thing is I have that fear of having three good games, and coming out here the next time and not doing well." Edmonds said. "This is something I've got to carry on for the next 10 games or however long we play. There's always the pressure on me to not live on what I did last week."
Edmonds had an MVP-caliber season in his first year. He had career bests in home runs (42), RBI (108) and runs (129), and played a Gold Glove-caliber defense in center field.
Against the Braves, he went 8-for-14 with two homers and seven RBI, and turned in a highlight reel over-the-shoulder catch at the warning track in Game 2. His two-run home in Game 3 off Kevin Millwood was perhaps the big blow of the clinching 7-1 victory.
Now, the slate is clean again as the National League Central champions prepare for Game 1 of the NL Championship Series against the New York Mets Wednesday night.
"Shoot, now that I'm here,
Atlanta was easy," Edmonds said.
"The whole series was easy just
because it's over.
"But I think that fear of not being able to do it again is what I think drives this team."
Manager Tony La Rusa likes it when his first-round big star is far from smug.
“It’s a great series to pat him on the back and talk about it in November,” La Russa said. “I'm glad fans who hadn't seen us very much got a chance to see how great a player he is, but I'm like our fans. What do you do next?”
Defense could be at a premium in the series, with both teams anticipating low scoring.
Game 1 matches Cardinals 20-6 game winner Darryl Kile against Mike Hampton (15-10). Kile could go twice on three days' rest in Games 4 and 7, if needed.
"He's our best guy, just like Bob Gibson or Dave Stewart," La Russa said.

Residence hall Web fee may hit $120 next year
By Jason Krall
By Jason Kraal
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
` Residence hall Internet upgrades won't cost students as much as earlier proposals estimated, University administrators said yesterday, but fees will still increase.
Fees could increase from $90 to about $120 next year, with an additional charge of $37 for students in halls where computer networks are to be rewired.
Original estimates had been as much as $447.
Student Housing Advisory Board will formally consider the proposal at its meeting at 3:30 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 19 at the Student Housing Department in Corbin Residence Hall. The proposal is intended to help the University of Kansas pay its Internet bills and upgrade services in the neediest halls.
Administrators have not yet decided which halls will be rewired with faster connections to manage Internet use that doubles every six months, said Marilu Goodyear, vice chancellor for information services.
Michael Hevel, Association of University Residence Halls president, had said the Internet fee could climb to $447 per year from its current $90. But Goodyear said no increase that high was being proposed.
"That's what it would be if we tried to do everything all at once," Goodyear said. "That's not going to happen."
A one-time $37 fee will be charged to all students in halls that receive upgrades. McColum Hall is in the greatest need, said John Louis, director of Networking and Telecommunications Services. Wiring and hubs there are six to seven years old, he said.
"We're saturated there," Louis said. "We can't keep up." Ellsworth, Oliver, GSP Corbin and Hashinger halls need similar attention, he said. Louis said that Lewis and

would include a $37 fee for students in halls that receive computer network upgrades.
Source: University administrators
Templin received updated electronics during their recent renovations.
Increasing bills from the University's two Internet service providers, Qweet, Inc. and Sprint Co., are the cause of rising Internet fees for students, Goodvear said.
In the 1999-2000 school year, NTS charged students $45 for a year of Internet access in their residence hall rooms. This year, that fee was doubled to $80, or $10 a month. Goodyear said the fee would increase to $13-$14 a month next fall, for an annual cost of $117 to $126.
Erin Osbourn, Olathe sophomore, said most students on her floor in Hashinger have computers in their rooms and would benefit from the upgrades. But it's unfair to have current residents bear the cost for those who will enjoy the improved connection in the future, she said.
"People who live there now will be paying for future students," Osbourn said. "I'm not sure that's fair."
Earlier proposals that called for larger increases had called for integrating telephone service, Internet access and cable television into one broadband connection. But the University has a long-term contract with Sunflower Cablevision that will prohibit it from moving forward with that plan for the present, Goodyear said.
NTS is seeking feedback on the proposal. Students with comments should contact Anna Hines, associate director of NTS, at 864-9311 or anna@ukans.edu.

The report was compiled by Barbara Ballard, associate vice chancellor for student affairs. Last May, Ballard was asked by Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Athletics Director Bob Frederick to review the reporting procedures of the accusations and the department's response.
During her investigation, Ballard interviewed 36 people, including the victim and all head coaches. She reviewed University of Kansas and Athletics Department documents and guidelines. She surveyed the department's. Student-Athlete
Advisory Committee.
Among her findings:
The Athletics Department policies already in place failed to specifically address sexual assaults or how to effectively handle such allegations.
- Many people involved with the alleged sexual assault tried their best to address the situation appropriately, but lacked the supervision, direction and consultation to do so.
The department failed to connect the student-athlete victim with counseling and other available services in a timely manner.
In response to these and other findings, Ballard offered 12 suggestions

Queers celebrate Coming Out Day
By Jacob Roddy
Special to the Kansan
Amid an array of colorful balloons, Queers and Allies celebrated National Coming Out Day at the Kansas Union yesterday with an information fair.
KANSAS
Representatives from Queers and Allies; Headquarters Counseling Center, 1419 Massachusetts St.; Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.; and the Douglas County AIDS Project, 2518 Ridge Court, were available with information about queer issues at the University of Kansas and in the Lawrence community.
"The goal is to give people an opportunity to see that there is a queer community here that can be a support," said Jennifer Parson, events committee chair for Queens and Allies and KU graduate.

Parson said that coming out could be difficult but that with the support of friends, family and the community, coming out could increase the quality of one's life.
"I know a lot of people after coming out who feel a. lot of freedom," she said. "When you're really honest with yourself, you're going to approach life from a new viewpoint."
Andy Anderson, director of Queers and Allies, said that coming out was important, but that queers should still consider their families' reactions.
"You need to consider how this is going to affect the relationship with your parents and how you are going to pay for school." she said.

Anderson said that although religious groups were usually considered intolerant of those in the queer community, that wasn't always the case.
"ECM is here to emphasize that all religious groups aren't homophobic and that being gay in no way means you can no longer practice your
religious beliefs," she said.
Parson, who organized the event, said the information fair was a success for the several students who stopped by but that progress needed to continue.
"I think KU and Lawrence do a fair job of supporting the queer community," she said. "But there's always more that needs to be done in Lawrence, in the state of Kansas and across the entire United States."

Profane messages removed from sidewalks
By Jason Krall
Kansan staff writer
Messages chalked on sidewalks and buildings around campus encouraging students to be open about their sexuality were removed yesterday morning.
Some of the messages were removed because they were profane, including "Pussy Power" and "It's a lot sweeter when both have a pet."
Other chalkings were announcements of an event organized by Queers and Allies yesterday afternoon in the Kansas Union in celebration of National Coming Out Day. Some of those were removed as well.
Messages on Wescoe Beach were removed as part of a routine cleaning, said Doug Riat, director of Facilities Operations. Facilities Operations usually cleans Wescoe Beach on Wednesday mornings, he said.
Wayne Pearse, building engineer for the
Kansas and Burge unions, ordered that profane messages be removed from the plaza in front of the Kansas Union.
Pearse said he was concerned that buses of school children who were dropped off in front of the Union for tours of the Natural History Museum would see the profane messages. Also, some of the messages were written on the building, and University policy prohibits writing on

Universities investigated for not reporting rapes
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The U.S.
Department of Education will investigate complaints that California's public universities are underreporting campus crimes, including rapes.
The investigation follows a report by
The Sacramento Bee that found the University of California underreported assaults on the nine UC campuses.
Education Department officials said they also expected to review the 23 campuses of the California State University system.
The 1.0-year-old federal Clerk Act requires annual reporting of data collected by several school authorities, including campus police.
There have been about 10 indepth reviews under the act, said Education Department officials.
The newspaper found that two-thirds of UC schools did not ask for rape statistics from sources other than the campus police.
Harvard Law School to consider changes
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Complaints that classes are too big and grades too arbitrary have prompted Harvard Law School officials to make some costly changes.
The school intends to spend $20 million next fall to shrink introductory classes from 140 to 78 students and to create colleges within the school to give students more one-on-one attention.
Officials also are considering a new grading system — replacing the traditional A's and B's with a scale limited to high honors, honors, pass and fail.
Under consideration, too, is a curve system requiring set percentages of students to receive certain grades.
The grading proposal will be voted on by Harvard Law faculty within the next few weeks, said representative Michael Armioli.
Parties spend most on candidates' ads
WASHINGTON — For the first time, the Democratic and Republican parties are on pace to spend more on TV ads than their presidential candidates, a watermark in how campaigns are funded.
The Republican National Committee is set to spend at least $60 million on "issue ads" promoting Texas Gov. George W. Bush and bashing Vice President Al Gore.
The Democratic National Committee is prepared to spend at least $54 million on pro-Gore, anti-Bush commercials.
By contrast, Gore and Bush each are expected to spend about $45 million of the $67.6 million in federal tax money they received for the fall campaign on television advertising.

Judge orders recall of faulty Ford vehicles
OAKLAND, Calif. — In an unprecedented move, a state judge ordered the recall of as many as 1.7 million Ford cars and trucks yesterday, accus-
Superior Court Judge Michael E. Ballachey said Ford knew the vehicles were prone to stalling, especially when the engine was hot, but failed to alert consumers.
The automaker already is involved in the recall of 6.5 million Firestone tires, which were standard equipment on some Ford trucks and sport utility vehicles.
Yesterday's ruling was based on a class-action suit filed on behalf of 3.5 million current and former Ford owners in California. The plaintiffs claimed the vehicles stall because wrongly placed ignition devices were exposed to excessive heat and stress.
Ballachey said Ford repeatedly deceived federal regulators by claiming there were no problems with its ignition devices in vehicles in the 1983-95 model years.
Israeli leader meets with U.N. secretary general
WORLD
JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak held a surprise meeting yesterday with U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, who is trying to mediate a truce and help win the return of three Israeli soldiers captured by Lebanese guerrillas.
Israel's army chief, Lt. Gen. Shaul Mofaz, said the Israeli-Palestinian violence was ebbing, but could erupt again.
Overnight, there were sporadic incidents. In Jerusalem, six Jewish youths were detained for throwing bottles at Arab homes. In the Israel city of Acre, masked Arabs rioted and burned property owned by Jews. Shots were fired at Israeli troops in the West Bank, and stones were thrown at cars with Israeli and Palestinian license plates.
New president wants to secure army loyalty
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — New President Vojislav Kostunica is seeking to ensure army loyalties amid resistance by Slobodan Milosevic's allies to attempt to push them from power.
Kostunica was slated to meet with top arm brass yesterday. The army leadership grudgingly has accepted him as new president and commander in chief, but some doubts remain as to where the army really stands after a decade of loyalty to Milosevic.
In a further show of foreign support after strong European Union backing of costunica, the United States announced plans to quickly reopen its embassy in Belgrade and re-establish formal diplomatic relations.

Phish splits — for now
The Associated Press
The Burlington, Vt.-based rock band has split up for a while in the midst of the biggest year of its career.
MONTPELLIER, Vt — Phish apparently has decided to take a break.
The group has no concerts scheduled and no albums planned. The band members plan to go their separate ways, The New York Times reported Tuesday.
The band's manager, John Paluska, said "everybody just hit an undefirable point of exhaustion at the same time" and wanted to
be with their families
The band performed their last concert — at least for now - in Mountain View, Calif., on Saturday.
Members of Phish declined to comment on the temporary breakup.
Phish held the largest New Year's Eve concert in the world this year, drawing 80,000 people to Florida's Everglades.
The quiet goodbye was a surprise coming from a group that loves grand events,from its annual New Year's Eve shows to its sleepover summer concerts for tens of thousands of fans.

Subscriptions sold to students could be a scam
By Katie Teske
Special to the Kansas
Students who wrote checks Tuesday to college-age vendors claiming to be selling magazines for a competition may have been scammed.
The vendors, who weren't authorized to be on campus or several Lawrence apartment buildings, attempted to solicit subscriptions for $20 to $40 each.
Ashley Wann, Lindsborg junior, bought a magazine subscription from a woman who came to her residence on Crestine Drive. Later that evening, a man also tried to sell her a subscription.
"Their approaches were very similar." Wann said, adding that she planned to put a hold on her check.
I called every one should, and I thank him for shaping him on how he check Danny Kaiser, director of the Organizations and Leadership Center, said he had no record of scheduling space for the vendor on campus.
"I didn't know anything about him, so I can't say if these people are going to get their magazines or not." Kaiser said.
The Lawrence City Clerk said that neither company had a license to sell magazines in Lawrence.
Kaiser said anyone who wanted to have a table at Wescoe Beach or the Kansas and Burge unions must first be sponsored by a group or organization and pay that sponsor a fee. The sponsor also must be present at all times because he or she is responsible for the vendor's actions.
Furthermore, a University Events form requesting space must be filled out and approved by the Events committee.
Kaiser said even though the magazine seller was not approved, he should not have been on campus in the first place.
"Even if you don't reserve the space, you still can't use state property for personal gain," he said.
The receipt one of the vendors handed out provided an Indiana address. The Better Business Bureau confirmed that the company, American Community Services Inc. Clearing House, was a member. However, American Community Services Inc., said the vendors did not work for it but for independent contractors.
Information on the back of Wann's receipt listed things salespeople were not allowed to say. The vendors that approached Wann violated several of the rules, including saying they were from a disadvantaged background, that magazines purchased could be distributed to a hospital as a gift or that they were participants in a contest working for prize awards and not solicitors working for money compensation.
An American Community Services Inc., representative said that if students decided they didn't want the magazines, they could cancel their orders within three business days of buying the subscription by mailing a signed and dated copy of the cancellation notice attached to their receipt.
Miller advised students to check their receipts before purchasing a subscription.
"It's the student's responsibility to read the fine print." Miller said.
Interstate Certified Publishers, another company that was selling on campus Tuesday, provided a Web site and Reno. Nev., address but no phone number. It asked that customers make contact only by mail.
The Better Business Bureau in Reno said Internet Certified Publishers had an unsatisfactory reputation because of unanswered complaints.
Blood drive collects more than last year
By Jennifer Valdez
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The Lawrence Community Center last week collected more than twice the amount of blood it collected in last year's blood drive, helping to alleviate a blood shortage in Lawrence.
About 1,400 University of Kansas students and faculty turned out for the Lawrence Community Center blood drive Oct. 2. A total of 868 pints of blood were donated, surpassing last year's total.
Amanda Storm, donor recruitment representative for the center, said the results were impressive.
"In the past, the most we had was 600 donors and"were able to collect 400 pints," she said.
This year's drive, called "We Need You to Bleed Crimson and Blue," was dedicated to Laura Leftwich, the KU student who died this year in a car wreck on Interstate 70. Rachel Greenberg, Sigma Delta Tau social chairwoman and San Antonio, Texas, junior, said the sorority, of which Leftwich was a member, was sending cards to her family that donors had signed during the drive.
"It's important to keep Laura's memory alive not only through our sorority, but through campus as well," Greenberg said. "It's a great chance for her family to know she's still remembered."
As part of the drive, a donor competition took place between sororities, fraternities, residence halls and scholarship halls. The winners in each category were: Grace
Sellards Pearson residence hall's 4th floor west, with 42 percent participation; Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, 40 percent; Sellards Scholarship Hall, 38 percent; and Beta Theta Pi fraternity, 32 percent participation.
John Cathcart-Rake, Salina fresh man and member of Beta Theta Pj, said the fraternity's victory in blood donation represented the importance its members placed on community service.
"I think we go above and beyond to participate in community service, which is a major part of our house," he said.
Ambriel Renn-Scanian, president of Sellards and Topea junior, said participation from scholarship hall residents was proof of their willingness to help and become involved in the community.
She said it was more convenient for students to donate this year because the drive didn't run too closely to the Red Cross Drive.
"Last year, this blood drive and the Red Cross drive were too close together and people couldn't donate," she said. "This year was different. It was more convenient that way."
Storm said she appreciated the participation of all those who donated blood and the businesses that contributed to the drive and donated awards to the winners.
"We truly appreciated them coming out; it was such a tremendous turnout," Storm said. "We hope to continue partnering with Krispy Kreme and Chipotle for the spring blood drive."

Gore mellows, Bush provides specifics in second presidential debate
By J.D. McKee
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Republicans liked George W. Bush, Democrats liked Al Gore and Green Party supporters didn't like either candidate after watching last night's presidential debate.
The debate, held in Winston-Salem, N.C., was a more informal and civil affair than last week's debate in Boston
Allen Cigler, professor of political science, said he thought the candidates paid attention to the critique
from the last debate.
"Gore softened his image with slowing his speech and not attacking as much," he said. "Bush was in a situation where he had to prove he's smart and intelligent enough to be president."
Cigler said he thought Bush succeeded in doing so by making a point to provide specific details about his policies.
The candidates agreed on many major points during the first half of the debate, which covered topics such as foreign policy and civil rights.
Catherine Bell, Coffeyville freshman, said she was more impressed with Gore.
"Although Bush and Gore agree on foreign policy, I think Gore shows more competence in international affairs," she said.
"Bush is doing better than anyone expected because he's been made out to be an idiot," he said. "But Gore is showing much more expertise."
Mark Goode, Littleton, Colo., sophomore, said he was surprised at how well Bush did.
Mike Yimer, Lawrence freshman,
said he thought it was a good debate but found Bush to be more in tune with his beliefs.
"I agree with Bush because he believes in less government, and he seems like a nice guy," Yimer said. "Gore is too liberal and seems too much like an attack dog."
Yimer also said that the two candidates sounded similar on foreign policy, but that he liked Bush's views on education.
"I think education works best at the state level instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to fix the problem," he said.
Green Party supporters were disappointed once again that Ralph Nader was excluded from the debate.
"The debate lacked for absence of third-party candidates," said Daylin Cook, Colorado Springs, Colo., sophomore. "People have a right to know what the third parties sand for."
Cook said she didn't think the debate settled any questions people had about the two major-party candidates, but she said she thought Gore came out on top.
"The group that loses out the most is the American people," Cook said. "They shouldn't be forced to pick between the lesser of two evils."
Cigler said it was too soon to tell what kind of effect the debate would have on voters.
"It's more important what people will say in three or four days," he said. "I suspect there will be no major movement in the polls."
The third and final presidential debate will be Tuesday in St. Louis.

Sports fans should try loving soccer
For hard-core sports fans, as well as those who just follow sports occasionally, the fall is a confusing time.
Every October, the focus of sports has no set direction. Football, baseball, basketball and hockey all are competing for the spotlight. This is especially true locally; when the Kansas City Royals have just finished their season, the Kansas City Chiefs are beginning theirs. The college basketball season kicks off at midnight tomorrow. However, with all the anticipation and excitement of the new sports seasons and playoffs, one sport has been neglected in this area.
GGGOOOOOAAAALLLLLLL!!!
The Kansas City Wizards, Western Division Champions in Major League Soccer, are heading to Washington, D.C., in an attempt to win the fifth annual MLS Cup. Hold on, before all you football and baseball fans groan and turn the page, show me one other local sports team that shooting for that kind of accolade. While I've always been a Royals fan, and although they were

pretty darn exciting to watch this year, finishing 18 games back and being behind the Detroit Tigers doesn't make a successful season in my book. As far as the Chiefs are concerned, they may have won their last three games, but they have a long way to go before they are a solid NFL team or threat to win the Super Bowl.
Now is the time to get excited about soccer and the Kansas City Wizards. Not only are the Wizards enjoying playoff success, where they defeated the Los Angeles Galaxy in a minigame semifinal playoff, they were the regular season champions of the MLS. This earned them the No.1 seed in the playoffs and the coveted Supporter's Shield, a trophy given to the champions by various local fan clubs. Eleven Wizards players have been nominated for postseason awards, which include Most Valuable Player, Tony Meola; Defender of the Year, Peter Vermes; Rookie of the Year, Nick Garcia; and Coach of the Year, Bob Gansler. What is most impressive about the Wizards' success is that last year, they finished in last place in their division and had the second-worst record in the MLS.
The Wizards also are very active in the local soccer community and with social services. Each summer, the team plays host to of soccer camps for children of all ages and skill levels. Area youth are exposed not only to the world's fastest-growing sport, but they also are witnesses to some of the world's best players and athletes. The players and staff of the Wizards also are active in the Kansas City community and raise money for a various charities. The Kansas City Chief players also are well-known for their involvement in charities — and, unfortunately, run-ins with the law.
An additional reason to check out the Wizards, for those of you who have never witnessed world-class soccer, is the players' amazing athletic ability. Football players claim that soccer players aren't rough enough. Baseball players claim soccer requires little thought or skill. Have you ever tried running for 90 minutes? Sure, that's not that impressive, but then try jumping to smash your head into a ball travelling at 40 miles per hour in an attempt to score, all while being crushed by a 6-foot-1, 200-pound goalkeeper. There truly is a unique combination of strength and endurance required to play soccer.
If I haven't persuaded you to get excited and watch the Kansas City Wizards in the MLS Cup at 12:30 p.m. Sunday, I'm sorry.
Thanks anyway for letting me indulge my sports enthusiasm on the opinion page. I think we all could be inspired by the entertaining and professional way in which the Wizards represent the area on and off the field.

Alcohol Awareness Week. In an attempt to curb alcohol abuse, the University has planned a week-long series of activities to raise awareness about the effects of alcohol. Remember, only you can prevent rampant inebriation.
Coming Out Day. Yesterday marked the annual coming-out celebration for gay, bisexual and transgendered people nationwide.
Fail:
L. Frank Baum. Baum, author of The Wizard of Oz and racist editorialist, called for the annihilation of Native Americans, according to a recent article in the Lawrence Journal-World. Are you a good witch or wicked witch?
Columbus Day. The annual celebration of Christopher Columbus as discoverer of the New World is not only historically inaccurate but offensive. It is time to put the traditions of a colonialist past where they belong: in the past.

Fast checkout nice but lacks personal touch
school.
I've never trusted self checkout machines. I first encountered one at my hometown library in Topeka when I was in high
It was supposed to be faster and more convenient, but I often had a book that wouldn't scan, and I'd end up joining the line of people waiting to have their books checked out by an employee.
But my roommate, Amanda, recently
introduced me to the self express checkout at the grocery store, and I was hooked.
We had gone to the grocery store to get dinner. A few people were milling around the checkout lanes as we approached with our salads, crackers and drinks. Then, the four lit-up empty self-express checkout cubes caught our eyes.
P
"Have you tried these before?" Amanda asked me.
For some reason, I had thought that you had to pay by cash, and I make it a point not to carry cash with me because I know how quickly I spend it. Whenever I go to the grocery store, I always write a check, even it's only for a few dollars.
Amanda assured me that the self-express checkout machines accepted all methods of payment and told me there was nothing to it. She had used them before. Few people were
I find caught a gimppe of them walking by or stared at them longingly as I waited in line, wishing I could be one of those people scanning their groceries and sacking them. I saw these self-express checkouts this summer when I was in Wichita.

around, so I thought it would be the ideal time to try the self-express checkout. It went without a glitch. I inserted my $10 bill and received change. I left a happy customer.
The sign above one of the self-express checkouts puzzled me, though. It read: "Job Opportunities Start Here! Apply here!"
In a later trip, I asked the employee monitoring the self-express checkouts if he thought it was odd that the sign was there. He didn't seem to be as amused by it as I was.
Funny. One employee watches over the four self-express checkout machines. It seems to me that fewer job opportunities would be available because of these machines.
Unfortunately, these lanes are closed at night. Imagine my disappointment when I stopped by to pick up milk and bread, and the lane cubes were turned off. I wasn't the only one. A group of students saw the lines and headed to the self-express checkouts then turned around, grumbling.
He glanced at the sign and said, "Oh, never noticed that. That sign was there before those checkouts were."
Since then, I've gone through the express self-checkout several times. I shop at three different grocery stores depending on my mood, but now I go to the grocery store with the self-express checkout.
The cashier smiled at me and asked, "How are you doing today? Did you find everything you needed?" After she finished ringing up my items, she handed me my receipt and said, "Have a nice day."
I waited in line, and that night I was reminded of what I didn't get from the self-express checkouts.
The self-express checkout is nice, but maybe I don't have to use it every time. Some things are worth standing in line for.

Editorial
Third-party ban mutes key issues
The absence of third parties in the debates is a mockery of democracy.
Just minutes before last week's first presidential debate, Ralph Nader, ticket in hand, was rejected at the door.
Not only was he not allowed as a participant in the debate as the Green Party candidate, but he could not even view from the audience seats — no doubt a discriminatory and offensive gesture of the debates. Those waiting to hear of Nader's third-party issues and solutions have to find another medium.
As the debates go on, Bush talks about "fuzzy math." Gore answers questions not asked, and neither attacks any strong issues. Both candidates are hesitant to discuss topics such as gun control, against which Nader speaks passionately and provides remedies for.
Another forbidden candidate is Harry Browne, of the Libertarian Platform. On his home page, harrybrowne2000.org, he states more about his gun control plan than Gore ever has. With the National Rifle Association already hot on Gore's back and Bush busy attacking Gore instead of issues, the ones giving specific answers are not being televised.
In 1992, Ross Perot became the first third party candidate to become a participant in the presidential debates. His follys demeanor and laughable presence aside, he tackled the two biggest issues of that debate: the national budget and federal government gridlock.
Now, Nader makes clear his stances on this election's hottest issues: education, health care and gun control, as well as the growing issue of foreign policy.
Given a list of hard-hitting issues, a compiled rally schedule, organization, volunteers and a significant number of Nader-backers, why is Ralph Nader not involved in this year's election? It's overwhelmingly obvious that he is prepared to at least debate the issues. And if he can't debate the issues, he should be able to sit in and view them. The presidential debates are beginning to restrict freedoms, and it is what voters don't see that is cheating them.

vertical surfaces. The clean-up was not intended to suppress the group's message, he said.
"It if was just on the plaza and it was clean language, I don't care what the content, we wouldn't have touched it," Pearse said.
Andy Anderson, Lawrence junior and director of Queers and Allies, said members of the group had chalked the messages. But at meetings, the organization had planned only to chalk announcements of the event.
"KU Queers and Allies takes full responsibility for the statements chalked around the campus by members of our organization. However, these statements in no way reflect the mission of Q&A, which is to provide a community for queers and queer-friendly people, not to create an atmosphere of hostility." Anderson said in a prepared statement.
Announcements about the group's celebration in the Union were removed by a Facilities Operations staff member who did not speak English and did not understand directions to remove profane messages only, Pearse said.
Provost David Shulenburger said students were free to chalk messages on sidewalks around campus that were not libelous, and the University rarely removed chalk messages because of their content.
"We very seldom get into removing messages chalked by students." Burlesn burger
said.
Ted Frederickson, professor of journalism, said the University did not violate students' First Amendment rights by removing the profane messages but that announcements about the event should not have been removed.
"The profane ones are on the edge. I think they're probably justified in removing those," said Frederickson, who teaches First Amendment and Society. "I think it's too bad they did that. It's unfortunate because it perpetuates a stereotype that being gay is all about sex, and it's not—it's about relationships and love."
Joey Kerns, Topeka sophomore and member of Queers and Allies, said he and other members of the group chalked announcements for yesterday's Coming Out celebration in at about 5:30 p.m. Tuesday. Some members of the group returned about midnight to chalk the messages that were considered offensive, he said.
Jennifer Parson, events committee chair for Queers and Allies, said the offensive messages were not consistent with the group's objectives, and she had no objections to their being erased. But announcements for the group's event should not have been removed, she said.
"I wish that the legitimate chalkings about our event hadn't been washed off," she said. "I also didn't want the inappropriate chalkings to reflect on our organization as a whole, and I'm afraid that's already happening."
Counselor named to assist athletes

experts to serve as consultants.
She commended the department for its willingness to help her assess its policies.
Now, she said, the challenge was for the Athletics Department to live up to its "appropriately high standards."
In a statement, Frederick said he would implement all 12 of her recommendations as quickly as possible.
He has named Amy Perko, associate athletics director, as the person to whom student-athletes should report sexual harassment, sexual assault, violence or other problems.
Perko said she would prepare for the job by becoming familiar with all the counseling resources on campus, such as the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and Counseling and Psychological Services.
"I don't have to be an expert counselor," she said. "Those individuals are trained counselors, and that's their job. My role will be to be a point person."
In the report, Ballard specified that the point person be a female. Perko agreed.
"In some cases, a female athlete may feel more comfortable coming to talk to a female administrator about it," she said.
Moreover, a proposed student-athlete conduct code will be presented to coaches on Oct. 18 and to the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee on Oct. 24. After input is received from those two groups, the code will be voted on by the KU Athletics Corporation Board of Directors Nov. 17.
Within one month, Frederick said, he planned to select several consultants for coaches and administrators about serious disciplinary decisions.
Frederick said the department also would continue its mandatory programs on sexual assault, violence and alcohol.
"We all need to take to heart the need to be better informed about violence against women and be better prepared to deal with serious incidents like this should they occur in the future," he said.
— Edited by Kimberly Thompson
As noted in Barbara Ballard's report, the Athletics Department should:
BALLARD'S REPORT
Use the University's code of student rights and responsibilities to handle on-campus violations, and the department should develop its own code of conduct to address off-campus violations.
Establish policies to ensure timely notification of the athletic administrators whenever a serious matter regarding the behavior of a student-athlete emerges.
- investigate each and every complaint in a timely manner and encourage student-tailors to report such incidents.
- Communicate the expectations for student-athletes regarding mutual respect and dianity.
- Develop a policy manual that clearly states reporting procedures within the Athletics Department and the expected response time to any complaint.
■ Ensure that studentathletes, administrators, staff and head coaches are fully informed about the range of student support services that is available on campus.
Make known policies and procedures regarding sexual assault and violence against women.
- Continue to require athletes to attend programs that address sexual assault, violence against women and alcohol.
Train coaches about sexual assault, violence against women and alcohol.
Consider designating a female administrator in the department to whom a student-athlete could report sexual assault, sexual harassment, violence against women and other serious behavior.
- Appoint a consultant to provide objective and unbiased counsel and guidance to coaches and their supervisors when serious disciplinary decisions need to be made.
- Include the Student Athlete Advisory Committee in the discussion of student-athlete issues and concerns.

Trivia answer: The New York Giants.
Tiger fans heckle volleyball players
By Shawn Hutchinson sports@kansan.com
Kansas writer sport
COLUMBIA, Mo.— Anyone who doesn't think there can be trash-talking in volleyball should attend a match at Missouri.
The Kansas volleyball team was greeted with a black and gold dose of hostility last night at the Hearnes Center, as a crowd of 1,148 — the second largest in Missouri volleyball history — watched as the Jayhawks dropped a 3-1 decision to the No. 24 Tigers.
The crowd, composed mostly of Missouri students seated directly behind press row, berated Kansas for the duration of the 2 hour and 10 minute match. Every errant serve, every bad bounce, every service error and every missed opportunity for Kansas was saluted with heckles from the Tiger fans.
"They were louder than I can remember," said Nancy Bell, Kansas senior outside hitter. "I had more comments come my way than I can remember. But I try not to think too much about it."
"Rock Chalk All-Talk," one fan screamed at Kansas during the fourth game.
The Jayhawks found themselves down 11-1 in the first game but eventually found their way to within 14-13. But a Kansas attack error soon ended game one. The 'Hawks fought their way to a 15-11 victory in game two, but Missouri rebounded for a 15-12 game-three win
and a 15-8 game-four win.
Through all four games, the Missouri students were heckling, and the Missouri band was blaring. It got louder when the Tigers won the first, third and fourth games, and it topped down when Kansas pulled off the second-game upset. But through it all, the fans kept nagging on the 'Hawks.
"I think our fans are classy," said Kansas freshman Jordan Garrison, referring to the fans who occupy the Horesei Family Athletic Center during Kansas' home matches. "They aren't going to go out there and taunt you. They're just just to watch the game."
Kansas coach Ray Bechard acknowledged that the Hearnes Center was livier last night than the previous two times he had coached there. But Bechard said the crowd noise didn't factor into the outcome of the match, which dropped Kansas to 11-7 overall and 2-7 in the Big 12 Conference. The Tigers, meanwhile, improved to 15-2 and 6-2, which includes a spotless 8-0 record at home.
"I think that late in the games, when the crowd sensed that something was going to happen, it got louder." Bechard said.
Bell said she didn't think the crowd noise had anything to do with Kansas' loss either. Even with the disappointment of the loss, though, she still managed to flash a smile when thinking about the Missouri fan base.
"Crazy fans," Bell said. "Just something you have to ignore."
Soccer player shares Sunday spotlight
Couple forced to miss each other's games

Edited by Kimberly Thompson
After playing a big game herself, sophomore defender Pardis Brown will have yet another game to worry about this weekend.
On the same Sunday when the Kansas women's soccer team will square off against Texas at 1 p.m. in Austin, Texas, her husband's team, the Kansas City Wizards, will battle for the Major League Soccer Championship against the Chicago Fire at 12:30 p.m. at Washington's RFK Stadium.'
"It's unfortunate that it's on the same day as our big game," Brown said. "I wish I could be there."
Even though they won't be able to share their moment of either joy or disappointment Sunday, the couple will have plenty of chances to share their interests and affect each other's careers.
"Being married to someone with the same interest and same talents really helps me because he helps me with my weaknesses and understands my travel schedule and I understand his," Brown said. "It's just nice to have somebody that I can speak to who completely understands my life."

"His experiences really help me develop as a player," she said. "He stands behind the goal and tells me what I need to do better. He is definitely a good coach for me."
Brown's life seems to revolve around soccer, which is not new to her because she grew up kicking a soccer ball.
She was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, and after graduating from Brighton High School, where she was named Utler Player of the Year in 1998, she was a member of the U.S. Women's National Team Pool from 1996-97. Brown joined The University of Portland in Oregon in 1998, but a broken leg forced her off the field that year; while the Pilots went to the NCAA Final Four, Ironically, the injury brought her close to Chris Brown, who then was a senior forward at Portland.
"We met actually in a training room," she said. "I was rehabbing an injury. He helped me rehab. We hit it off immediately, and we've been together since."
As her future husband launched his professional career in 1999 in Kansas City, Brown, who would marry Chris later that year, looked for a school in the Kansas City area with a speech pathology major and strong soccer team. She decided on the University of
Kansas and transferred before the 2000 spring semester.
"I love the team," she said. "The diversity of the girls and the friendships that I have I never would have been exposed to at Portland."
Kansas coach Mark Francis said Brown not only influenced the team's mentality, she also helped improve the defense.
"She organizes and communi
cates with the defenders in the back." Francis said. "We put her on sweeper so that she can cover for the other defenders, and she has been doing a good job."
Brown said her team needed to win one of its next two games to make the Big 12 Tournament, but a perfect Sunday wouldn't be complete without a Wizards' victory, too.

Kinsey hopes to compete on field, court
By Jason Franchuk sports@kanson.com Kanson sportswriter
Mario Kinsey strolls a hallway at Allen Fieldhouse, heading toward his first photo shoot, and he appears to be relaxed — for a young man who has his hands full.
He has a football in his right hand and a basketball in the other. This is what sets the freshman apart from most college athletes.
The photo op calls for him to hold each of the balls because he plans on playing both sports at Kansas. But Kinsey's athletic circus will not turn into a juggling act yet.
Kinsey, a Kansas quarterback, will redshirt this season. Football coach Terry Allen and basketball coach Roy Williams devised a plan for Kinsey's services. Tomorrow, at Kansas basketball's Late Night With Roy William, the Waco, Texas, native will become a basketball player again and practice with the hoopsters.
"It's been fun for me," Kinsey said. "I've really enjoyed myself."
Life is all about enjoyment for Kinsey right now. He gets to play football, for which he is on scholarship. He tries to squeeze in some time to shoot baskets, usually on Mondays, when the football team does not normally practice. He's jovial at football practice, laughing, talking trash to teammates, as he tries to help out the team as a wide receiver in some practice drills and as a quarterback in others.
"He's a gifted athlete," Allen said.
His future as a two-sport athlete is in the air. With the graduation of current quarterback Dylen Smith, whom Kinsey compares himself to athletically, Kinsey can expect to be in the mix for the starting job next fall.
He said he needed to get in "basketball shape," which means to have more endurance than the constant lulls that football provides. But until then, his focus is on the first sport.
"I'm going to concentrate completely on football until I'm told I can play basketball," Kinsey said.
From high school, Kinsey brings the credentials for succeed at both sports, which was his plan all along. He wavered between Kansas and Baylor, two schools that offered him the opportunity to play two sports.
He was selected the Class 3A Texas player of the year as a junior in football. He fared similarly well in basketball, averaging 16.3 points and 6.2 assists last year while leading his team to a 34-4 record and a state championship.
"I think I can," Kinsey said,
"if I work hard enough."
There are questions Kinsey will have to answer in the coming months. What if he fares better in one sport than the other? Will he be shortening himself if he tries to play two sports? He claims he can succeed in both.
There have been a few close calls during which he was almost called into action, thereby eliminating the redshirt status. Against Kansas State last Saturday, after Smith was injured on the Jayhawk's first drive, Kinsey was told to warm up with second-string quarterback Zach Dyer.
It was on the sideline, however, where Allen saw Kinsey display his greatest act of confidence.
At Oklahoma, Kinsey mockingly encouraged the Sooners fans to start cheering by waving his arms in the air. A few fans retorted, yelling at Kinsey to enter the game, even though Kinsey was dressed in jeans and only his jersey top.
"He told them, 'the name's Kinsey,'" Allen said, telling the anecdote with a smile and a few dramatic pauses. "Remember it."
Kinsey wants fans to know who he is. Coming to Kansas gives him two ways to do it.

Record Tigers crowd goes home happy
By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
COLUMBIA, Mo. — The happiest moment in the Kansas volleyball team's trip to Missouri was the post-game Papa John's pizza.
The Jayhawks feasted after they lost three games to the Tigers and beat the home team in the second game, 15-11.
"Yeah, I'm not too happy right now," said Nancy Bell, senior outside hitter. "I think we weren't executing any of our game plan."
The 'Hawks marched into the Hearnes Center, knowing that they had a fight ahead
For Kansas, senior middle blocker Danielle Geronymo was the most solid player, knocking down 17 kills and pulling out seven digs. Senior Amy Myatt, outside hitter, was second for the 'Hawks batting down 15 kills and also bumping seven digs. Bell was third in kills with 11, and junior settler Melly LaMere had an unusual seven
of them. A border war does exist, even in volleyball, as the second largest crowd in Missouri volleyball history — 1,148 goldcid fans — taunted the "chicken hawks."
But it seemed that the Tigers' Lisa Morris proved the most disturbing to the Jayhawks. Morris racked up 23 kills and three service aces for the Tigers.
kills and 12 digs in addition to her 48 set assists.
"I thought we played well," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "We really hung in there. They just did an excellent job."
However, the Tigers may not be as deadly when they play the Jayhawks Nov. 18 at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center. While leading the 'Hawks in the first game 1-11, Kristen Johnson — who is second in kills for Missouri on the season — went down with a twisted knee. Johnson returned the court on crutches with a MRI scheduled for today.
The Tigers are now 15-2, 6-2, while Kansas falls to 11-7, 2-7.
Missouri only had seven blocks, even
though it is No. 2 in blocks in the Big 12 Conference, while stuffing 14 its own. Jordan Garrison, a freshman middle blocker, scored five of those blocks and batted down eight kills of her own.
Garrison said that the Jayhawks would use their off weekend for recuperation and preparation for next Wednesday night's home-court battle with Oklahoma.
"I think with how many games we've played this season, this is a really good time for us," Garrison said. "And, hopefully, we can come out to practice next week and concentrate and play as a team and get ready to go."

Slap on wrist lets player off the hook
There are those dark moments in sports than seem to overshadow and put a damper on all the positive aspects of the game.
When Shaquille O'Neal donned a turban and stared in *Kazam*, a movie that turned the Los Angeles Laker into a genie who could grant wishes. I shinned the game of basketball for two weeks. I was ashamed to be a fan.
When minor league pitcher Ben Christiansen fired a ball into the on-deck circle, beaming the opposing player in the eye, I shivered that someone could be so heartless. But now, Marty McSorley has lowered the standards on one of my favorite sports
— hockey. I have no problem with fighting in hockey; that's one of the best aspects of the game. That's the highlight of any Chicago Blackhawks game.
But when McSorley, a 17-year veteran of the game, whacked Vancouver Canucks' Donald Brashear last season with his stick, I was shocked. McSorley missed the final 23 games of the season as punishment from the NHL and was later charged with assault with a weapon.
Does the court want hockey to turn into a death match? That's the stupidest idea I've heard of since Arena Football.
But here's the real problem — even though McSorley was found guilty last Friday, he won't be sent to jail, he won't be fined and he won't have a criminal record.
McSorley claims he deliberately skated up the ice, looking for trouble, missed the shoulder and bonked Brasher on the right side of the head with his lumber. A veteran hockey player can't discern a shoulder from a player's head?
Maybe McSorley needs to retake grade school biology. Or instead, he should be booted out of the NHL and spend a few nights in jail.
Judge Kitchen dismissed that claim, saying "a housekeeper swinging a carpet-beater wouldn't miss. An NHL hockey player would never, ever miss."
It wouldn't be the first time a hockey player has spent a few hours in the slammer. In 1988, Dino Ciccarelli received a one-day sentence and was fined $1,000 for a stick-related offense against Toronto defenseman Luke Richardson.
But McSorley was handed an 18-month conditional discharge, meaning that he has no participation in any sporting activity with Brashear during the span. I guess ABC won't be featuring a one-on-one competition between them any time soon.
McSorley is a deviant to the game. He didn't choke his coach as Latrell Sprewell did or throw beer bottles at the KU crowd as the Missouri did two years ago. But by slapping him on the wrist instead of cutting off his hands, the court put every hockey player in danger by letting McSorley's behavior fly.
Now if Dallas Star Brett Hull is upset at Colorado Avalanche Joe Sakic for being more attractive, Hull has the permission of the court to take a swing and not worry about any stingy repercussions.
That's an NHL that I don't want a part of. A fistfight, OK. But not using an opposing player's head as a batting tee.

Losing team leaders won't deter Jayhawks
By Zoe Hunter
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Media day is nothing new to Kansas women's basketball coach Marian Washington.
She is entering her 28th season as head coach, but this media day might have been her most difficult. She introduced six new players to the press and spoke at length about team chemistry and how the team was coming together.
"This group seems to like each other." Washington said. "There is no question they respect each other."
She said that the respect factor was the first step in gaining complete team chemistry. This year's team is different because it lacks a go-to player. Without Lynn Pride or Suzi Raymant, who finished their last season of eligibility at Kansas last spring, more emphasis will be
placed on working as a team offensively.
Because of this, Washington said outsiders would view Kansas as underdogs, and most people would think they were at least a year away from making any noise in the Bie 12 Conference.
After Washington finished speaking to the media, the players conducted one-on-one interviews. The seniors were surrounded immediately and offered their own views.
But Washington said she would not let the new faces on the team cloud her view of what her team could do.
"We might be able to surprise some people," she said.
Senior guard Jennifer Jackson said that this year's team was hungry and that the team's speed would make up for any loss the team suffered offensively.
"On any given night, any one of us is going to score 25 points," she said.
Jackson also talked of the team's goals, adding that she would like to add a couple more banners to the Allen Fieldhouse rafters, possibly one that reads Final Four.
"We're very lacking in jewelry," Jackson said.
"And I think that we'd like some."
After the interviews, the players — already suited up in their home uniforms — headed downstairs and posed for the team picture.
Instead of spending the time sitting on the bleachers between photos, the players gave observers a sneak peak of Late Night with Roy Williams at Allen Fieldhouse tomorrow night. But they made sure not to go give a way too many of the skits and dances before the actual event.
Sophomore guard Kristen May said the show would be one that added "some flava to the mix."

clothes but are restrained by a basket weaver's budget or are standing shoulder deep in a closet full of the same mundane winter attire they've worn since high school. It's a case of wardrobe neglect.
There are alternatives, however, to trekking three miles to class sporting 10-inch crocodile skin stiletto and Chanel-printed tights that dotted the fashion runways.
Most college students said that reinventing, revamping and rediscovering previous fashions was what today's style was all about.
“Casual but fun — whatever makes me feel comfortable in my environment,” said Sarah Harrington, Topeka junior. “If I feel good about what I’m wearing, it affects my mood too. Like bright colors and funky shoes.”
Here are some fashion guidelines to see you through the fall:
■ Style is best defined as who you are and how you project your energy into the world. NOT about what you wear.
■ Style should be fun, entertaining and comfortable.

For most KU students, fashion isn't about scanning the Parisian catwalk in search of the latest Prada handbag or Gucci dress. If a girl showed up for an 8:30 class in anything hipper than pink running shoes and jeans, she'd be laughed out of the classroom.

man sim. "When I go out, like to look elegant and classy." Lawrence style is based on individuality and comfort. This fall, the casual street scene is ruling the runways, and vintage styles are more popular than ever, creating this fall's fashion theme: making something old new again. Pick a decade and lose yourself in the many thrift stores, specialty shops and boutiques in Lawrence and the surrounding areas.
The goal is to put an edge on clothing from years past — particularly the late '70s and early '80s. Tweed, plaid, crocodile print and leather pieces can be paired with brown or black high-cut boots. Dark denim, faux fur-lined coats and long, lean turtleneck sweaters are reliable fall basics.
Jennifer McKnight, an owner of Arizona Trading Co., 734 Massachusetts St., said long turtlenecks, skinny belts and clean lines were sure bets for fall.
"The early '90s killed fashion, but finally shoes are looking better," McKnight said. "Bell bottoms, cargo pants and the whole athletic and tech look is being replaced with very long and lean-cut clothing. Everything is super tight.
"I see color coming back in style. I also think that people aren't as afraid to wear color anymore. Pinks, reds and purples are all really popular now."
Women can compliment warm wool sweaters with flashy, gold hoop earrings and bracelets. Antique brooches or pins give an outfit the individual touch.
Belts are an essential classic. Skinny leather, studded, gold-linked or thick and chunky designs all will do. Drape a fringed scarf or wear a flirty colored hat to keep you warm on the way to class.
Fall is a time of bountiful color. Cozy browns, burnt oranges, maroons, golds and dark greens all welcome the upcoming season.
Here are some tips to keep in mind when choosing what to wear for fall:
Never buy clothing of a certain color just because it's in. It could make you look washed out or just flat-out unattractive. Hold up the garment to your face and make sure it complements your skin and hair tones. There is a difference between dressing up and looking like you're headed to a Halloween party. Soul diva Mary J. Blige has said, "I like to look sexy but not trushy. But if I throw it on, I want to throw it on real hard."
- Don't wear so much pleather that people start to think the rumor about Britney Spears coming to the University is true. There is a difference between buying something cheap and looking cheap.
Don't worry about finding every one of the "10 must haves" of the season, especially if they don't appeal to you. If you are self-conscious about what you're wearing, people will sense that you are trying too hard.
A word of caution for all thrift-shop kings and queens in search of flashback fashion: Forking out $55 for a leather jacket that you know has been cozy on someone else's body may not be a wise investment. It is often easier and equally satisfying to shop at a national chain store.
This is especially true if you are looking for a classic item or you cower at the thought of wearing other people's clothes. Plenty of name-brand chains are trickling into Lawrence. Mix a fitted vintage blouse and splurge on a pair of soft leather pants, and you'll be set for the season.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 12). You're persuasive this year. Win a prize by choosing your words carefully. You've got everybody's attention in October. Rake in the coins in November. You'll be surprised all what you find in December. A fantasy comes true, but not as expected, in February. Your partner's hot in April. Gain from distant elders in June. Be graceful and succeed in July.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
A long-distance connection you make soon could be the start of something big. Excitement, new experiences — maybe even a new language to learn. Why not? You hate limits, so break through a few by taking on a whole new world.
raurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5.
Offer to take over chores for a person who's too busy. For relatively little effort, you could become even more indispensable. Listen at keyholes, too. That way, you'll know what needs to be done.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) --- Today is an 8.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
You're the brains behind the operation, so speak up. You're usually verbal, but around some people you can get a little tongue-tight. Don't let a flamboyant person intimidate you. Your idea might be the one everybody's been waiting for.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 4.
New information could cause a flurry of activity. Make sure you stay up to date by asking leading questions. They don't need to know what you know, as much as the other way around. Don't worry; they'll talk your ear off
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 9.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 9.
You're looking good, and so is somebody else The attraction's mutual and could lead to great ideas. A partnership? Perhaps. The two of you bring out the best in each other. This is a relationship definitely worth developing.
Virao (Aua. 23-Septh. 22) — Today is a 4.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — Today is a 4.
Somebody else's idea of a great adventure could give you the heebie-jeebies. Stay calm, or at least look like you are. Don't let anybody gamble with your money. Conditions are changing too fast. What looks like a sure bet now could fall flat tomorrow.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is an 8.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is an 8.
A relationship with a different kind of person could turn out well. There's something fascinating about this individual. Even if you never fully understand him or her, it's never boring to try. Ask questions, and you'll gain insight.
The money could be good, but not steady. The work requires lots of energy, and it may not last long. If you can do a job matching this description, it should be a good deal. You could make enough to get that thing you've wanted for the house.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is an 8.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
A treasure you discover in a closet or attic could be the perfect thing. With a little paint and some imagination, voilà! You'll have something good enough to sell so you can buy the thing you really want.
You're so cute. Your wit is sparkling, and even you don't know what you'll come up with next. You might surprise yourself and blurt out a commitment. It might as well happen sometime, and now is as good a time as any
Acuarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6.
C
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6.
A friend makes an interesting suggestion. Well, why not? What could go wrong? That is the pivotal question. Don't cram too much into your schedule because if anything can go wrong, it will. Something that looks easy could be impossible.
2
LIVE
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
Continue with negotiations cautiously. Something that looks too good to be true is. A job you're counting on may not pan out, so don't rely on any one thing too much. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Student appears in look-alike contest
entertainment briefs
During Erin Taggart's first day on campus this fall, a parking department employee thought Taggart looked like actress Drew Barrymore.
Notes: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
When the Overland Park sophomore handed over her driver's license, the worker still thought Taggart was enrolling at the University of Kansas under an alias.
Taggart is taking the similarity to a new level by participating lookalike contest sponsored by Countdown Productions.
The Web site, www.countingdown.com, features a contest for women who look like Barrymore, Lucy Liu or Cameron Diaz in the movie version of the 1970s television show Charlie's Angels.
Taggart said that the winner of the contest would be flown to the premiere on Nov. 3 and will get to meet the actresses.
The online votes will be counted Sunday.
"Even my own parents can't seem to tell us apart," Taggart said. "Just yesterday my father pointed to a picture of Drew and said 'What the hell are you wearing in that pic ture?' and I was like 'Dad ... that's not me!'"

Police may fine $1,000 for wild house parties
EUGENE, Ore. — The campus parties may be over, or maybe just more expensive. The council is made up of the at least 1,000 forks who throw wild parties.
Under the proposal, police must show up at a home at least twice in 90 days before they levy the fine. Two or more people must be issued tickets; party guests must total no less than 10. The fee would cover police overtime.
"I'm not a rich kid," said University of Oregon student Zack Schleifer, 19. "This fee would just make a million college kids crazy. There's no way they could cough up that much money."
Woman works despite piercing termination
LOS ANGELES — Refusal to remove a pea-sized, flesh-colored stud on her longue cost Mary Haudenschild her wounds. A lawyer swallowed the cost of a legal settlement.
Haudenshield has accepted an offer of reinstatement to her apartment-leasing job, along with the equivalent of six weeks paid vacation and a company turnabout on what's considered appropriate in the workplace.
Haudenshield said her job performance and speech aren't affected by the stud, and it's not visible unless she sticks out her tongue.
County celebrates Oktoberfest sans beer
CULLMAN, Ala. — An Oktoberfest
without beer?
Cullman is proud of its strong German heritage, and it celebrates Oktoberfest in many of the usual ways — from wearing lederhosen to eating bratwurst.
But root beer is about the only liquid flowing from kegs because the city and county have been dry for decades.
The lack of beer bothers some Oktoberfest revelers. Connie Haynes compared a beerless Oktoberfest to the Fourth of July without fireworks.
But not all Oktoberfestgoers are complaining about the absence of

Company creates everyday coffin uses
TERRE HAUTE, ind. — An online company is digging for Holloween business with a line of furniture that would make the Addams Family envious.
Your Coffin Company builds and sells coffins to consumers eager to give their home decor a distinctive flair. The company has devised 101 uses for the average wooden coffin — aside from the usual purpose — including as a coffee table, wine rack, bookshelf and entertainment center.
"We decided ... this was the ultimate conversation piece. We have a motto that you should get to know your coffin before you're buried in it," said Brad Miller, co-owner of the online company.
The coffins, made from oak or maple wood, start at $389 for a basic, no-frills model.
Garages may have room for planes
OSHKOSH, Wis. — A proposed subdivision near Wittman Regional Airport would offer residents ample bedroom space, a sunny family room, a quaint front porch — plus a garage for two cars and the family airplane.
The subdivision proposed by developer Tom Shepeck would have about 35 upscale homes, complete with the hangar-sized garages.
It would be linked to the publicly owned airport by a shared, 40-foot wide, 300-foot-long taxiway.
"There is an endless list of reasons why pilots choose to 'Live with their Planes' including convenience, economics and pure emotional pleasure, and the concept is growing." Shepeck wrote in his proposal.
Mom mascot attacked by rival school's fans
HORTON, Ala. — A mom who dressed as an eagle mascot called the cops after being stabbed in the back with pins or needles by rival fans at a homecoming football game.
Kim Harms, 33, said she was wearing Douglas High School's red-and-white bird costume during a game at Leedens on Friday night.
About 15 students swarmed her twice, she said, first punching her in the arm and stomach, and later stabbing in the lower back with a pointy object.
As of Tuesday, police had no witnesses or suspects.
Leeds won the game 40-0.
Oddities
WISCONSIN RAPIDES, Wis. — The great pumpkin poll is on in Wisconsin.
Voting to begin for presidential pumpkin
Two 500-pound gourds carved with the likenesses of presidential candidates Al Gore and George W. Bush have been made by artist Antoinne at Attenborough's Country Gardens.
People who buy a pumpkin from the 7-acre patch can throw poker chips into plastic jack-o-lantern pads beside the face they like best.
Voting started Saturday when Chicago sculptor Steven Dahlke carved the 4-foot tall pumpkins for a weekend harvest festival. The winner will be announced Oct. 31 — Halloween.
Cadillac devotion:

CLINTON, Ky. — Every Cadillac dealer in the world would love a few customers like Marian Emerson.

"I just like Cadillacs," said Emerson, who turned 82 on Tuesday.

She doesn't much remember her
first one except that she got it in
Memphis and it was yellow and gold.
She raked up 19,059 miles on her last one — a 2000 Sedan Deville.

Musician takes pride in unusual sound
Thursday, October 12, 2000
By Meghan Bainum
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Guitarist Ian Moore is not from around here. He's not from around anywhere, really.
The former Texas guitar god who opened for acts such as ZZ Top and Bob Dylan has gone back to his more eclectic, multicultural roots with his new album And All the Colors.
Moore, who lives in Portland, Ore., is front man for The Ian Moore Band, which is appearing at 8 tonight at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire. St. Tickets are $8.
Moore is promoting his album, which features a folk- and blues-based guitar sound. He released And All the Colors on his own Hablador record label and said that he didn't fit in with the indie rock or the young punk rock scene. He said that he considered his music to be an eclectic mix all his own and that he used a variety of instruments such as guitar, violin, bazuki and sitar.
Although he started his career as a mainstream musician, Moore has carved out his own niche in the music world.
What is the hardest part about
being a non-commercial musician?
Really physical survival, like actually paying your bills are the trials. I think that the most interesting thing right now, being someone that works on the periphery (of music) is just getting my music out. There's such a huge gap between commercial music and good music.
You play so many instruments. Do you have a favorite?
I love the guitar, although I went through a period where I was down on it. I think the guitar is such an unexplored instrument. There are so many young people that come up and are so sample oriented that they don't realize how trippy a guitar can be. But, I'd have to say that my voice is my favorite instrument. Nobody has the same voice as anybody else. Everyone is completely different.
What is your goal when you play for an audience?
I just want to connect with people I relate to, that's all. I prefer smaller crowds that are keyed into where I'm coming from and open to what I'm doing to a huge crowd standing around not listening.
Are you happy to be playing in Lawrence?
There's about 15-20 cities where I feel like I'm in my environment, and Lawrence is one of them. Lawrence is quite a bit cooler than most college towns. I always feel comfortable where there's restaurants, good coffee ... It's cool to play in a club, walk around the corner and meet somebody you'd be interested in talking to. What is it like when you go on
What is it like when you go on tour?
We travel in a van with a trailer — busses are too expensive. If you don't have tour support, it's almost impossible to have tour busses because they are $1000 a day. There are four musicians, a sound man/tour manager and sometimes two crew guys if we can afford it. It's almost impossible to pay a band a salary that is above the poverty level and make it work and have crew guys. We're going up to Lubbock, Albuquerque, Denver, Lawrence and then to Chicago.
When you do a six-week tour, by the end of it, you are in a weird space. You've been living out of a van, in a different town everyday, been sick; but as long as there are people coming out to the shows, that validates everything.

Indigo Girls
Retrospective
Instead of a greatest hits, the Indigo Girls released a Retrospective of their career — which fits the group's unassuming style.
The 18-track CD features hits such as "Gallileo," "Kid Fears" and "Power of Two."
which offer the same emotion and powerful lyrics as the original songs.
The CD also has two songs, "Devotion" and "Leaving," that were recorded for Retrospective
Retrospective.
The Indigo Girls will perform at 8 p.m.
Saturday at the Lied Center with Shawn Mullins and Indigenous as part of their Honor the Earth Tour.
It's classic Indigo Girls — with songs that draw on the women's own experiences. "Least Complicated" touches on relationships and tells the story of one of the band members who was ridiculed in grade school for giving her crush a ring.
If you don't have the other classics of the Indigo Girls — Rites of Passage or Swamp Ophelia — Retrospective is a great CD to get your collection started.

Maceo Parker — Dial:
MACFO
"Maceo? Can I take 'em to the bridge?"
James Brown used to feverishly call out before imploring his ace alto saxophonist
to "Lend Me Your Horn." And, of course, Maceo always did. Just when it seemed that the sound of the JBs, James Brown's legendary horn section, was somehow already tighter than their matching leisure suits, and the rhythm section, in the process of digging even deeper into the pocket, couldn't get any funkier, Maceo Parker simply blew.
And, oh, did he blow like no one else in his day. In doing so, he provided the most important ingredient for The Godfather of Soul's patented musical recipe.
This is why, in light of his past accomplishments, this latest offering on W.A.R.P.? Records titled Dial: MACEO is such a perplexing disappointment. In the liner notes to this album, Maceo champions the fact that he's still hanging after all these years, and to his credit, his stamina appears undiminished. Yet, he seems to be mellowing with age and, unfortunately, the tunes on Dial: MACEO sorely reflect this trend.
The album's lineup is solid, but they can't hold a candle to James Brown's original JBs. Not that this comes as a surprise, but the musicians jack feeling and
prise, but the musician more distressingly, even, soul. It also does not help that many of the tracks are safe, light covers of '70s R&B classics or that
1. （    ）
the album is silkly produced, almost to a fault.
But the fact that most of the compositions draw heavily on the latest smooth grooves of contemporary, department-store jazz is inexcusable.
No matter how wistful and wily Maceo's winding sax solos still are, when presented within this context, the whole affair
becomes a farce nearing a fiasco. Unusual guest appearances from Prince, James Taylor, Ani DiFranco and Sheryl Crow serve no purpose and only distract from Maceo's unique sound.
In all fairness, Maceo — in the tradition of his former band leader, the hardest working man in show business — does put on a blistering live show.
He cooked for almost four hours the last time he was in town. Therefore, mark your calendars, because Maceo is coming back and appearing at Liberty Hall Friday, Oct. 20, with Blackalicious. But on Dial: MACEO; the man seems to completely lose sight of what makes his live shows so great.

A — A vs Monkey Kong
It's the British Invasion! Most bands from the United Kingdom attempt to conquer America and A is no exception.
The band's United States debut, A vs Monkey Kong, has a good mix of hard-driving tunes and fun pop songs that show remarkable depth. The opening track, "For Starters," is obviously a song to get the crowd moving, with walking guitars and not much for lyrics.
"Here We Go Again (I Love Lake Tahoe)"
refers to reviever at a famous vacation spot,
and doesn't forget to mention that "Here's where Sonny Bono died."
The title track brings back a hallmark of Generation X's childhood, the Donkey Kong video game as the game's voice makes a guest appearance.
"Old Folks" explores a topic not often
seen in rock — facing one's mortality. Not to worry, though. A handles the subject lightly.
The instrumentation is not especially impressive or creative. It's just plain old guitar rock, which according to Decca when they rejected the Beatles, "...is on the way out." A definitely could use snappy guitar solos or have different instruments to color its sound. "Jason's Addiction" is the one bright spot, with a muted trumpet adding an unique element. A does rely heavily on synthesized sounds spliced into its tunes, unfortunately to little effect.
*A is made of brothers Adam and Jesu (juvenile) and Diane (adult).
*A is made of brothers Adam and Jason (twins) and Giles Perry with friends Daniel Carter and Mark Chapman. With a guy named Giles, where else could a band be from but the British Isles?
Check A out at the Granada on Oct. 14 for a break from midterms. Watch A try to win over our Yankee hearts. They win hands-down for the strangest song title ever: "Hopper Jonus Fang."

Lyle Lovett — Dr. T & The Women soundtrack
a mixed bag. The
Movie soundtracks are genre began well, with Simon and Garfunkel's The Graduate soundtrack being the first time rock music accompanied a movie.
More hits came with the Rocky and Top Gun soundtracks. Today, every music star is
The Women
**12.** $A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}, B = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}, C = \begin{bmatrix} -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
**13.** $D = \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix}, E = \begin{bmatrix} e & f \\ g & h \end{bmatrix}, F = \begin{bmatrix} g & h \\ e & f \end{bmatrix}$, $G = \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix}$, $H = \begin{bmatrix} e & f \\ g & h \end{bmatrix}$
**14.** $P_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}, P_2 = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}, P_3 = \begin{bmatrix} -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
**15.** $Q_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}, Q_2 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}, Q_3 = \begin{bmatrix} -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
every music star is jumping on the soundtrack bandwagon, but with uneven results. Lyle Lovett produces an average soundtrack for the upcoming release of Dr. T & The Women, starring Richard Gere and a number of today's leading actresses, notably Helen Hunt.
The album is entirely Lovett's specialty, a mix of honky-tonk and blues with a little jazz thrown in for fun. The instrumental selections work well — evocative yet not overpowering. The fiddle playing of Stuart Duncan stands out from the rest. The slower piano tunes don't work as well as the up-tempo band tracks. Lovett does not seem as comfortable writing for individual instruments.
Three songs that appear on this album are not always effective. Two of them, "You've Been So Good Up To Now" and "She's Already Made Up Her Mind," originally appeared on Joshua Judges Ruth.
The ballad, "She's Already Made Up Her Mind," aacks a natural quality; the lyrics don't work as written. Lovett doesn't have the voice for that type of music. "You've Been So Good Up To Now" is a great blues tune, with well-crafted lyrics and fabulous solos.
The new song for the movie "Ain't it Somethin'" is the weakest of the three. The lyrics are repetitive and don't say much for all the times they are said. Lovett fans are better off sticking to his solo albums.
The movie, Dr. T & the Women, opens nationwide tomorrow.

Book offers simplistic view
By Michael Newman Kansan book reviewer
Kansas is hard to market.
Although sunflowers might have universal appeal, Oz doesn't. And recent news coming out of Kansas — Fred Phelps and evolution controversies — is enough to defeat even the most brilliant marketing strategist.
So it is no surprise that Brent Green, marketing strategist turned-novelist, retreats to the radical late 1960s at the University of Kansas in his novel, Noble Chaos, to portray Kansas in a more progressive light.
It is about that time when Green's novel begins — it's also about the time when Green's nobility ends.
The novel's October release mirrors the 31st anniversary of the Oct. 15, 1969, student moratorium march when students wearing black arm bands marched down Jayhawk Boulevard in protest of the Vietnam War.
From the outset, it's easy to see that the transition to novelist is not an easy or straightforward one for the author. Although Green's prose shows he has a vast vocabulary, he has not learned to use it comfortably within the context of a novel.
Similarly, Green has not fully considered the boundaries between historical fact and fiction in his novel, which is set on the University of Kansas campus in 1969 and 1970.
In addition to the literal rendering of place, Green renders people and their personal details in an equally basic sense.
People are largely characterized in terms of their jeans, bell bottoms and dingo boots — the same stereotypes many of us hold, without reading 256 pages of prose.
While the use of campus landmarks may be interesting to KU students, his embellishment of historical events is misleading to the extent that it is requires the warning that this book is not history in any sense — reconstructed or not.
When Green delves into ideas, he unleashes the same well.
worn arguments that have come down to us through the 60s-stereotype mill, along with LSD and long hair. He has done nothing for fair representation of the Vietnam War generation and its ideas
Noble Chaos leaves Kansas where it already was — unkindly viewed.

Party indulgences could hinder fitness training
By David Pilarim
Kansan fitness columnist
The weekend is just around the corner, and you might be planning to attend a big party or go clubbing. The last thing you want to worry about is fitness.
You should take a look at that hard-earned muscle in the mirror before you leave — it might not be around for long.
Studies suggest that as many as two-thirds of all alcohol abusers lose up to 20 percent of their entire muscle mass because of continuous alcohol consumption, a condition called alcoholic myopathy.
If you're trying to add muscle and lose fat, these shifts in your
endocrine status could lead to an abrupt halt to your gains in the gym.
THC (the chemical in marijuana responsible for its effects) has been shown to inhibit various cellular processes of the
Alcohol also causes excretion of body fluids and electrolyte stores, which can lead to dehydration and rapid muscle fatigue. Increased calorie intake from alcohol consumption also can contribute to weight gain, hence the "beer belly."
As for other festive substances, arguments about whether marijuana use has negative side effects are ongoing. Some health problems have been found, though.
testes — including testosterone synthesis, nucleic synthesis, local protein synthesis, sperm motility and production.
Quite possibly the most devastating effect on physical training from marijuana is the decrease in testosterone production and the altered balance between androgens and estrogens.
Because adequate testosterone levels are necessary for recovery and repair of muscle tissue between workouts, a marijuana-induced decrease of these levels will decrease your ability to recuperate.
On the other hand, the increase of estrogen caused by marijuana will cause an

Limp Ladies' Man fails to satisfy
By Amanda Kraschube
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
He's the Ladies' Man.
But like most men, he starts out strong and fades fast at the end.
Radio talk show host Leon Phelps (Tim Meadows) is looking for love, but what he needs instead is a job after he and Julie (Karyn Parsons) are fired for their "frank" cander on air. Leon's unique blend of sexual advice to the men and women of Chicago may be offensive at times, but it always provides a laugh.
While Leon claims that he is not a psychologist or psychiatrist, he is a self-proclaimed sexpert, and he has a large black "book" to prove it.
Most of the jokes in the beginning are sexual innuendoes, stemming from pila colada love lotion to the water bed that provides the motion to his ocean. Even Leon's own house — a love shack on the water
When Leon and Julie are fired from their late-night spot, they are forced to shop around for other stations that aren't bothered by the Ladies' Man's raunchy poems. Even when Leon tries to clean up his act for a religious station, a 50-year-old nun spills his fun when she talks about doing missionary work in Bangkok.
- raises eyebrows with a "70s-themed decor complete with a shag rug and disco mood lighting.
But Leon thinks his job search is over when he receives a letter from "Sweet Thing," an old sexual conquest who promises him money and much more. But because Leon is the Ladies' Man, all of the women blur together and he can't remember
Ladies' Man
Acting ○○○○○
Plot ○○○○○
Cinematography ○○○○
(but I liked Baseketball)
who or where "Sweet Thing" is. His search is further complicated when a posse of cuckolded husbands determined to take their revenge on him for seducing their wives.
Meadows' character has been a permanent fixture on Saturday Night Live since 1997. SNL producer Lorne Michaels urged Meadows to create a feature film with the Ladies' Man, obviously hoping for the success that Mike Myers endured with Austin Powers.
But unlike Austin Powers, the The Ladies Man cannot keep the punches rolling and opts instead to end the story in a mushy embrace instead of lewd humor.
The movie brings back two familiar leading ladies in Parsons of Fresh Prince fame, and Tiffany Thiessen of Beverly Hills, 90210 and Saved by the Bell. While Thiessen only graces the screen in the last 15 minutes, Parsons' character stabilizes Leon throughout the movie, saving him from the deranged husbands led by Greco-Roman wrestling fanatic Lance, played by Will Ferrell.
The Ladies Man provides sporadic sexual humor at first, but tapers off at the climactic moment when Leon finds his "Sweet Thing."
Like my ex-boyfriend, The Ladies Man left me wanting more.

Lost Souls will find terrified audience
The Associated Press
"They had their 2,000 years; now it's our turn." Those are the words of the forces of the Devil, and their plan for taking supremacy of the world is downright diabolical.
Lost Souls, a classy thriller miles above Nightmare on Elm Street, is well plotted, with a first-class group of actors and sure-handed direction by Steven Spielberg's favorite cinematographer. Janusz Kaminski.
An Oscar winner for Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan, the Polish-born Kaminski puts his visual imprint on the movie, his first as a director. Naturally, it opens on Friday the 13th.
Winona Rya stars as Maya Larkin, a serious-minded woman with a troubled past. Her childhood travails had led to demonic possession, from which she was exorcised by a kindly priest (John Hurt). She lives among a gathering of Catholic priests who believe that the Devil himself will return in human form to gain dominance over the world. Ryder shares that belief.
Ben Chaplin, as Peter Kendell, a polished member of the literary world, writes best-sellers about the most vicious of criminals. He refuses to believe that real evil hovers over human beings. He had a harsh childhood — both parents were murdered — but he seems to remain unscarred.
Rvder claims to have evidence that the Devil's
takeover is imminent. Most people view her as a nut, including Chaplin — until compelling evidence appears.
Pierce Gardner wrote the screenplay from a story he devised with Betsy Staly. It is a cunning piece of work, almost an intellectual exercise with the chilling surprises diligently spaced.
As you might expect from a world-class cinematographer, *Lost Souls* is visually striking. Kaminski's cityscapes are splashed with shades of sepia. Many of the scenes are monochromatic. Color appears sparingly, and not in primary hues. New York City never looked so threatening. The direction is also compelling. Kaminski keeps the suspense building, without overplaying his hand.

Seattle searches for new sounds; grunge is history
The grunge exhibit takes up a few display cases in the museum.
SEATTLE — It's a pretty good clue that your music is "over" when it becomes a museum exhibit.
The Associated Press
The section's final exhibit is a video screen that shows clips of some current Seattle bands and asks which will be the next defining Seattle sound. The display, like most observers, can't hazard a guess.
Crumpled, hand-scrawled lyric sheets are displayed alongside battered, sweatstained guitars, and fliers for small-club shows featuring grunge bands that hadn't quite mastered their instruments but would go on to sell millions of CDs.
Many of the beer-soaked relics of Seattle's grunge-rock heyday are now captured under glass at the new Experience Music Project.
But just because grunge is part of a museum, it doesn't mean that the Seattle music scene is dead. In fact, the disappearance of the flannel-shirt-and-cutoffs crowd has cleared the way for a vibrant, eclectic mix of new sounds.
"In some ways it's great, because without that national spotlight beaming on Seattle, people don't have to be so self-conscious," said Joe Ehrbar, editor for The Rocket, a weekly that covers Seattle's music scene.
"Remember, the kind of music that came out of here was something that no one had ever heard," he said. "Now, with the Internet especially, everyone knows what's going on. I think it's going to happen somewhere else, if it ever happens again, and it's going to be a totally different kind of music."
Seattle will continue to produce high-profile bands, Ehrbar predicted, but it's unlikely to become the center of the rock universe again.
Those seeking a window into the lost world of grunge can pay the $20 admission price at Experience Music Project, a pet project of local software billionaire Paul Allen.

Internet helps find car facts
Online Producer
Scott
Lowe
sports@kansan.com
Not so long ago, the process of buying and owning a new car was akin to being stuck with rusty needles. Potential buyers always were fearful of being cheated by the salesman, paying too much for service or not knowing a critical fact until it was too late.
Thankfully, the Internet has evened the scales, and now consumers are more informed and are paying less than ever before. New car services, online car clubs and message boards are available for even the most obscure make and model.
Here are just some samplings of the resources:
www.blueovalnews.com
This site is run by the controversial Robert Lane, who has several reliable (and anonymous) sources inside Ford Motor Company. These sources, including company documents, give Lane the inside track to some of the best insider info in the industry.
Want to know Ford's future plans? What the Mustang will
look like in 2003? How they are handling the Firestone recall behind the scenes? What else might soon be recalled? Even though he just focuses on Ford, this site has a wealth of information.
www.edmunds.com
Edmund's is the standard by which most new car resources are judged.
www.autoextremist.com
In this site, you can find impartial reviews, road tests, option prices and even the true market value of the car you're looking for. There are also links to price out insurance, tips on how to get the best price and a message forum.
This site was made for the true enthusiasm. It's another site with loads of insider info, and it lambastes the whole auto industry. Their motto is standing up for the "bare-knuckled, unvarnished, high-octane truth."
Autoxtremist.com is mainly a huge editorial with long-winded rants on the car industry just doesn't get it. The site helps give an outlet of frustration for consumers who feel ignored by automakers (i.e., all non-SUV drivers). Naturally, the site is a hit with hardcore car nuts and is the scourge of automakers.
www.driveoff.com
Driveoff.com is a complete online car buying service. Don't have the stomach for a marathon
session of haggling or excessive dealer markups? Driveoff.com allows you to choose and option out your car and calculate price with monthly payments. The beauty of it is that you pay the manufactured suggested retail price no matter what, which is helpful when trying to find high-demand cars.
Wandering the Web
This site has a partnership with many dealers across the nation, so it's pretty easy to find one within 100 miles, no matter where you are.
www.fool.com/Car/Buyinga Car.htm
Okay, I know the Motley Fool isn't exactly a car site, but its founders have compiled the best steps to take when buying a new or used car. They've been helping people save money in every form of business, and the car industry is no different.
Credit, personal finances, insurance and monthly payments are all taken into consideration. To top it off, some of the methods they suggest can put all of the power in your hands, while the salesman tries to figure why his profit margin was so low.

Contender can compete at movies
By Ryan Dolan
Kansan movie reviewer
"I'm not confirming a woman just because she's a woman," says Gary Oldman as Sen. Shelly Runyon in the political thriller *The Contender*, which opens in theaters tomorrow.
That's just the beginning of the troubles for Sen. Laine Hanson (Joan Allen) as she tries to climb the political ladder.
as she tries to climb the political ladder. President Jackson Evans (Jeff Bridges) needs to appoint a new vice president. Evans belies popular sentiment and picks Hanson to be the first female to fill the office. During the confirmation hearings, Hanson steps into a political blitzkrieg orchestrated by the frumpy but vicious Westwestern, Sen. Runyon.
Runyon wants another governor to be the next veep and threatens to reveal a past sex scandal of Hanson's if she proceeds with the hearings.
"The American people will believe what I say about you," says Runyon, "because I'll have a big microphone in front of me."
Hanson refuses to capitulate, arguing that public service and one's private life are separate entities. Runyon enlists a naive congressional newbie, Senator Reginald Webster (Christian Slater), to smear Hanson into Betty Crocker
domesticity.
both sex and politics sell movie tickets, but The Contender doesn't just go for the cheap thrill. Writer/director Rod Lurie scores his first big Hollywood hit. Lurie underlies his film's tense power struggles with insight and irony about the ideals and realities of American politics.
A West Point grad and former L.A. based movie critic, Lurie used to be despised in Hollywood for his acerbic film reviews. He channels this wit into cutting dialogue, where every character, including Hanson's 6-year-old son, cracks a joke or zings a one-liner. Pundits believe Lurie and several members of the cast will be up for Oscars.
As the wily Sen. Runyon, Gary Oldman thankfully shies away from his recent over-the-top villain roles. He plays the former Nixon cronie with a repressed bitterness, which borders on the pathetic. You almost feel sorry for the guy as he attempts to rip Hanson's life apart.
Bridges' President Evans exudes a Clinton-esque, "Aw, shucks, let's eat some pie and discuss this" persona. His laid-back demeanor masks his motives and integrity from his friends and foes alike. Bridge's Big Lebowski co-star Sam Elliott shaves his white, bushy mustache and delivers a breakthrough performance as Kermit Newman, Bridge's
The Contender:
Acting ●●●●○
Plot ●●●●●
Cinematography ●●○○○
chief of staff, Christian Slater gives a solid performance as Sen. Webster, but with his past drug problems and jail time, it is hard to swallow his character's naive.
Lurie penned *Contender* specifically for Allen, but he could not get a major studio to finance the film because the former Oscar nominee wasn't an A-List actress. But Dreamworks smelled a political gold mine and decided to distribute the movie during election season.
Allen succeeds in her portrayal of the flawed yet virtuous Hanson. Her moral decisions become somewhat unbelievable as the movie progresses, and The Contender almost falls into a fairy tale. Despite that, the underrated Allen definitely deserves an Oscar nomination for her role.
Some critics are going to argue that Lurie cannot credibly straddle both cynical and idealistic extremes. As any politician knows, you can't be all things to all people, but the ideological mix with a few twisted ironies won my vote.

Sigma Nu ready for a ghostly visit

By Meghan Bainum writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students living in the Sigma Nu fraternity house aren't worried about Friday the 13th bringing them bad luck—they're worried about it bringing out the house's ghost. Virginia.
Mike Sharp, Overland Park freshman, said the ghost stories he had heard from long-time residents of the house told that Friday the 13th was a particularly gruesome anniversary.
"A lot of guys in the house say that's the anniversary of the day she killed herself," he said.
Though the story of Virginia has never been confirmed, the legend has been passed down by members of Sigma Nu for about 60 years.
Virginia was Virginia Rackham-Stubbs, the adopted daughter and personal assistant of then-Kansas Governor George Roscoe Stubbs.
Virginia, died in the house about 1911. Gov. Stubbs found her hanging from a third-floor balcony.
Sigma Nu legends say that Virginia was buried above the main fireplace of the house. Her burial place was marked by a plaque bearing the words: "The world of strife shut out, the world of love shut in."
But many in the house say Virginia doesn't always stay shut in — and that the ghostly activity could increase today.
Vince Dean Jr., Leawood sophomore, said he was going to wait and see what happened.
"I think it'll be interesting," he said.
"People will just freak out a little bit and stay away from the room."
"The room" is the room closest to the place where Virginia died. Although staying away from the room might be an option for some in the house, David Fitterling, Joplin, Mo., freshman, lives there.
Though he said he has had a couple of minor incidents involving his phone ringing when it was off the hook, he has not seen the famous ghost. Still, he said it's a bit strange living in the room.
"I didn't know anything about it until everyone told me that that's the room she hung herself in," Fitterling said. "Then I got scared."
He said that while he believed in ghosts, he thought some of the "haunt-
ings" were all in peoples' imaginations. But when asked if he would stay alone in the house today, Fitterling took a less lighthearted tone.
"I would never be in this house alone — I don't care if it's the middle of the day." he said. "It's a really big house with a lady that hung herself here."
Still, Fitterling said that Virginia — despite doing things like slamming doors and turning on appliances — has never hurt anyone in the house.
This has made some people in the house a little less worried about a possible Friday the 13th Virginia sighting.
Andrew Crouse, Sigma Nu president and Waterloo, Iowa, senior, said the day might be better if Virginia showed up.
"It's more funny for most people here," he said. "I think it would be more entertaining if something did happen."

Art supplies stolen from building
By Rob Pazell
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Art and Design Building's open door policy to students could mean free stuff for others.
Four blank, framed painting canvases were stolen between 9 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. Tuesday from the painting room in the Art and Design Building, which is open all night.
Joel Pfannenstiel, Wichita junior, said he has had canvases stolen on two different occasions. He said that the painting room was open at all hours so students could access their materials but that the 24-hour room had caused theft problems.
"It's kind of a trust issue," Pfannenstiel said. "We trust each other with our supplies."
But he said the Art and Design Building's open doors may have attracted the thief.
"We try to think of how this is happening." Pfannenstiel said. "Some think it might be a former student who might treat it as their own store."
Pfannenthel said his canvass, which was stolen in September, was worth $60. Other smaller canvasses can cost between $10 and $40, depending on size.
Because Pfannenstiel didn't have enough money for new ones, he made the canvases with the help of his father who drove in from Wichita.
"It really sucks for me because I'm poor," Pfannenstiel said. "I really don't know what to do."
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said there were officers on foot patrol at night and noncommissioned
security officers who did building checks. Security officers lock the other buildings on campus at night, but the Art and Design building is open all night.
"Because it is open 24 hours, they're not going to lock anything down," Mailen said. "It up to the student or Art and Design to lock up or do personal checks."
"A lot of people work late because they run out of time to finish projects," he said. "If I'm up there late, it's so I can get something done fast."
Mailen said it was difficult to find thieves in 24-hour buildings because officers didn't know exactly what to look for unless the crime was taking place.
But for many art students, such as Joel Carlson, Lenexa senior, keeping the building open all night is beneficial.
"When you have students there around
the-clock, it's hard to detect somebody," he said.
Mailen urged students to put a marking or engraving on their property.
"We stress that they mark it in some way," he said. "Unless they take the step to do so, it's hard to say who the owner of the property is."
Judith McCrea, chairwoman of the art department, said that she was sad the canvases were stolen and that the department would take measures to solve the problem.
"I am very concerned for the students over this loss," she said. "The department will resolve this issue."
"We are going to put up posters and fliers," he said. "Maybe then people will be less inclined to do it."
Pfannenstiel also said he would take action on campus.

Chancellor discusses raising funds
By Jason Krall
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Doubling the number of endowed professorships to about 120 was atop a list of objectives for the next major funding campaign for the University of Kansas.
This was one goal Chancellor Robert Hemenway outlined in a meeting with University Council yesterday. He also discussed his efforts to gain more control from the state about how tuition is allocated.
The University will seek money for the campaign from private donors through the Kansas University Endowment Center Association beginning next fall. The money will also be used for a new undergraduate science building, an addition to Learned Hall and scholarships for students.
Those goals are aimed toward making the University one of the top 25 public universities in the nation, Hemenway said.
"That's an achievable goal, considering all of the programs that we have are already in the top 25 in their fields," he said.
But Hemenway said that would be up to the private donors, some of whom insist on donating money to a particular school.
The University also needs to separate the use of its tuition dollars from the state appropriations process, he said.
1ne University forwards its tuition revenue to the state's general operating fund, and the money is allocated back to the University when the state budget is approved each year. That means the more money the University brings in through tuition, the less it gets from the state.
Instead, tuition revenue should stay within the University budget, and state funds should come through a block grant, he said.
The Kansas Board of Regents is proposing the change to the state legislature for fiscal year 2002, and so far, state legislators have been supportive. Hemenway said.
In other action, University Council approved a resolution to include student and faculty representatives on the Coke Partnership Council. The move comes after the partnership council approved an increase in the cash price of bottles of Coke products on campus from 85 cents to $1. Marlon Marshall, student body vice president, will serve as the student representative.

FUNDING CAMPAIGN
What happened: Chancellor Robert Hemenway outlined his goals for the University of Kansas' next major funding campaign in a meeting with University Council yesterday. He also discussed his efforts to gain more control from the state about how tuition is allocated.
What it means: The campaign is intended to make the University one of the top 25 public universities in the nation. Controlling tuition means more money from the state.
What's next? The University will launch the funding campaign publicly next fall. The state legislature will consider changes in the way tuition is handled for fiscal year 2002.
Conference to examine 1886 court case
Supreme Court decision about Native Americans to be re-enacted tomorrow

By Leita Schultes
When a Canadian murders another Canadian in Canada, the United States minds its own business, said Robert Porter, professor of law.
So when a Native American murders another Native American on an Indian reservation, which is independent of the U.S. government, the same principle should apply.
That's the premise behind United States v. Kagama, a Supreme Court case that will be reargued at 2 p.m. tomorrow during the Tribal Law and Governance Conference at Green Hall.
the case concerns whether the U.S. government has the power to interfere with sovereign Native-American affairs.
Unless it's 1886.
Nations Supreme Court during the retrial, which will have no immediate legal impact but will raise awareness.
rorter, a member of the Seneca tribe, will serve as presiding justice of the American Indian
He said the original decision gave Congress the power to interfere in Native-American affairs.
"Not because of anything in the Constitution, which is problematic, but because of this trust responsibility," he said.
This trust responsibility was based on the perception that Native Americans represented an inferior race, said Keith Harper, an attorney with the Native American Rights Fund. He will present the argument for Kagama.
The case utilizes the enumeration of powers concept, Harper said, which means Congress can only exercise powers outlined in the Constitution.
but in the Kagama case, the Supreme Court found that even though there was nothing in the Constitution that said Congress could interfere in Native-American affairs, its action was justified because Native Americans were a weak race dependent on the U.S. government.
"The decision is, in my opinion, without any legal support." Harer said.
Shawn McCarthy, an attorney with the Minnesota Attorney General's office who will
represent the United States in the retrial, said government interference in the sovereignty of Native-American tribes might be in those tribes' best interest.
"The United States has an obligation to look out for the better interests of Indians and Indian tribes." he said.
The case is significant because it still shapes policies on both trust responsibility and plenary powers — Congress' power to exercise full control in Indian affairs.
"I expect this will be a good opportunity to further examine the underlying theoretical issues relating to the tribal-federal relationship," McCarthy said. "It's an opportunity to revisit the rationale employed by the United States Supreme Court and to weigh its relative merits in light of recent Constitutional law developments."
All parties agreed that the trial would be a learning experience.
"The judgment is not going to have any immediate effect," Harper said.
Porter agreed.
"The short-term goal is to have an enjoyable argument," he said. "The long-term objective is to reshape thinking and maybe the law."

Dance director to perform march to honor woman
A lecturer and political orator, Annie Diggs, who lived from 1848 to 1916, spoke for women's suffrage, the Farmers' Alliance, populism and political campaigns.
Joan Stone, director of the division of dance, will perform "The Populist March of Annie Diggs" at 2 p.m. Sunday in the courtyard of the Spencer Museum of Art. The event is free.
To demonstrate that Diggs was always on the move, Stone will be using a marching step throughout her program and dance forms of that era, which includes the waltz, polka, square dance and the wedding march.
"She was the most fascinating woman of the late 19th century," Stone said. "She paved the way for a lot of political activists of the 20th century."

month in honor of the release of The Beatles Anthology, the first authorized history of the band.
The book was released Oct. 5 and contains previously unpublished documents, more than 1,300 photographs and detailed, personal stories from each band member about his life as a Beatle.
Hilary Morton, Lawrence junior, has worked at Borders for a year. She said that as part of Beatles month, Borders is displaying numerous books about the band, playing Beatles music throughout the store and selling the anthology for 30 percent off the regular price of $60.
Morton said that Beatles month is scheduled to conclude at the end of October but that Borders might extend it as long as it keeps promoting high sales.
"Despite the price still being pretty high, it has been the No. 1 selling book this month," she said.

Gumby's driver robbed while delivering pizzas
A Gumby's Pizza driver was robbed as he attempted to deliver a pizza at 2 a.m. yesterday to the 1400 block of Apple Lane, Lawrence police said.
Det. John W. Lewis said the driver, who is in his early 20s, noticed a car following him on the way to the residence. When he pulled into the parking lot, the car blocked his car and two men walked up to his door, reached in and grabbed him by the throat and demanded money.
Lewis said the driver gave the men his money bag as one of them decided they should get the pizza, too. The men left with the pizza and money, but the delivery driver got their tag number and called police from a nearby gas station.
Lewis said the pizza order appeared to be legitimate.
Lewis described the suspects as white males, 18 to 25 years old, 6-foot to 6-foot-2 and about 160 pounds. Police are investigating the robbery.
Haskell students arrested after doughnut, juice theft
Two Haskell Indian Nations University students were arrested yesterday morning on suspicion of stealing doughnuts and juice from Dunkin' Donuts, 521 W. 23rd St., Lawrence police said.
Det. John W. Lewis said Darla Jean Howard, Shauna May Thompson and a friend were eating at the store when one of them walked behind the counter and took a large amount of doughnuts. Another one of the women took several juice drinks.
Howard and Thompson left their friend behind at the store, and she helped the employee gather information.
A surveillance camera caught the thieves in action.
Police eventually located the vehicle with Howard and Thompson inside, Lewis said. The women were arrested on charges of theft and interfering with the duties of a law enforcement officer because they led to police, Lewis said.
Lewis said an employee making doughnuts in the back saw the thefts on camera and ran out in time to get the fleeing women's tag number.
Howard was released yesterday morning from the Douglas County Jail on $300 bond. Thompson also was released yesterday morning on the authority of the judge to appear at her court date.

Bill aims at reducing auto safety problems
The bill, which the House and Senate passed and sent to Clinton on Wednesday, prescribes jail terms for officials of automakers and parts suppliers who withhold information about safety defects from government regulators.
WASHINGTON — President Clinton is expected to sign a bill aimed at strengthening auto safety in the aftermath of 101 U.S. traffic deaths linked to Firestone tires.

It also requires more stringent reporting of possible safety problems, new government testing to determine vehicle rollover risk and installation of systems in new cars that warn motorists about under-inflated tires.
Middle East strife deflates Dow
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Dow Jones industrial average plunged 379 points yesterday, almost dropping below 10,000, as violence in the Middle East and soaring oil prices compounded worries about weak company profits.
The Nasdaq composite index fell to its lowest close this year, extending a post-Labor Day slide dominated by fears that technology companies aren't growing fast enough to justify lofty stock prices.
"In an already nervous market, this is all we didn't need," said Al/ Goldman, an analyst with A.G. Edwards & Sons Inc. in St. Louis. "A terrorist attack, increased hostilities in the Middle East and a spike in oil prices — shake it all up and you get blind dumping of stocks."
Conflict between Israel and the Palestinians escalates, and an explosion rocks a U.S. military ship in Yemen. See page 940.
More Information
See page 5A
The apparent terrorist attack on a U.S. military ship in Yemen sent oil prices up as much as 10 percent, helping to re-ignite inflation fears. And Israel combat helicopters rocked Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's residential compound in the Gaza Strip as well as a West Bank town in retaliation for the brutal slayings of three Israeli soldiers.
Home Depot led the Dow's decline, its fifth-largest point drop ever, after the retailer became the latest blue chip company to warn it would not
meet third-quarter expectations.
The Dow closed down 379.21,
or 3.6 percent, at 10,034.58,
the lowest it has been since March.
The news sent other retailers down as well, including Wal-Mart, which fell $1.19 to $44.13. Financial stocks, which tend to be sensitive to inflation concerns, also suffered.
Fears that higher oil costs would hurt airlines sent Continental Airlines down $2.75 to $41.19. Airplane manufacturer Boeing fell $4.06 to $61.13.
Technology stocks were mixed. Chip maker Advanced Micro Devices rose 31 cents to $22.13 after reporting earnings ahead of Wall Street expectations late Wednesday. Intel rose $1.75 to $37.13. But Yahoo tumbled again on worries about future earnings, falling $8.75 to $66.43.

Politics part of Indigo Girls' concerts
Musician answers Kansan's questions
By BriAnne Hess
writer@kansan.com
Kansas senior staff writer
The Indigo Girls will bring their political views and acoustic sound to Lawrence at 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Lied Center as part of their Honor the Earth Tour.
The duo of Emily Saliers and Amy Ray have been touring in Montana, Utah and Arizona to raise money and spread awareness about indigenous tribes.
The Kansan spoke yesterday to Ray, who was in Denver, by telephone.
How did you get involved with the
Honor the Earth cause and the tour?
We started seven years ago with a group of Indian activists. We had been active in environmental work like that for a long time and some of the most effective work was going on in the indigenous tribes.
We created Honor the Earth, which gives grants to indigenous tribes and
toured in '83, '95, '97 and now. We go for three to five weeks to raise money and political awareness.
We give out political action cards during the show and do a letter-writing campaign, which we've found has been an effective tool. Speakers come to talk on specific issues, and we play on reservations.
Do you have a cause in Lawrence?
We're trying to encourage Haskell students to be at the show. We're working specifically on Leonard Peltier and trying to get clemency from the president.
The time before Clinton leaves office is really important. It's important to focus on that and try to get action. We'll find out at noon today if we can visit him (Peltier).
A lot of our board members are friends of his and were with him when he was arrested in 1975. Our stand is that he did not get a fair trial, and he's been in there for 24 years, and now his health is failing.
It's a human rights issue for us. A lot of people don't know about it and those who do have become tired.
We're trying to invigorate them.
How do you stay inspired in your causes and your music?
This tour really energizes us when we go to the reservations and talk to them. We see what we're working on and are put in those situations.
As far as our music — we love playing music — we've been playing together for 20 years. This tour is always cool because Jackson Brown was with us earlier and Bonnie Raitt.
You'll be playing with Indigenous?
Yeah. They're like rock stars on the reservations and even off of them. We open for them on the reservations though — they're fans are rabid. They're a Native-American blues group — Yankton Sioux from South Dakota.
What's one song we can count on hearing at your concert?
"Galileo" — because people always request it, and we never get tired of playing it.
In the liner notes of Retrospective,
you write about how words are resistant to death. What would you want your words to be?
Probably the more recent stuff I've written I like better lyrically because I think I've gotten better.
The earlier stuff was just me emoting. The song "Go" is one I'd like to have to be left behind — maybe none of them.
It is nice to think there is something left of you in art, but I think I know my place, and it's a tiny little speck — I'm not one of the greatest of the greats.
Plans for a new album?
We've been on tour for over a year so we have to take a few months off. From January to April we'll write. Then on May we'll start to record. It will be an acoustic record, and we'll have an accordion player with us. It will be out in a year.
Do you and Emily work together when you are writing?
It's a solitary process. We often don't see each other for months at a time. The one space we really give each other is songwriting as far as our career goes.

Green Party gets preachy on the stump
S
omeone is going to pay for this. Oh, I know they probably thought it was funny. "Let's put that Republican guy on the Nader mailing list." So to
whomever you are out there: I now exact my revenge.
Like manna from heaven, the envelope came promising solidarity and enough activism to give my life meaning again. Inside it was a letter announcing that the Green Party and Ralph Nader, its presidential candidate, had heard the people's "cry that we have become a nation of the corporations, by the corporations and for the corporations."
This is certainly true to a degree. But those are not cries of protest I hear; those are cries of glee. Half of this country's citi-
zenny now own stock in those corporations. During the last 20 years, the ranks of Americans holding stock have increased by roughly 50 million. Richard Nadler, president and founder of the nonpartisan American Shareholders Association, notes two more facts indicating the convergence of Wall Street and Main Street. From 1989 to 1995, the number of shareholding manual laborers increased 197 percent

and more than half of all shareholders now earn less than $50,000 per year. Americans have seen their lives improve on the backs of these corporations.
But I read on, determined to find some reason as to why Nader's merry little band of followers fights on with such fervor. When a Naderite bravely pipes up to mention her champion in a political science class discussion focusing exclusively on Gore and Bush, she is either not heard or ignored. Greens hold tables in the Union and protest students gathering to watch the presidential debates. Perhaps our protesters find inspiration in a quote from Cicero, the Roman statesman, that can be found in the brochure. "Freedom is Participation in Power," it says. One problem: these poor, plucky souls have no power – and they badly wish to rule.
For they do have opinions, strong ones, most of which involve large changes in what is clearly considered the decadent lifestyle of average Americans. We should, the literature proclaims, adopt "alternative institutions" and "ecological lifestyles" based on "community-focused economics" and "ecological wisdom." Wisdom. The birth of the Green Party postdates my own by six years. Yet it confidently asserts the wisdom to tell us how to live.
Here, I admit, I may be a bit misleading. It is true that Nader himself has been a consumer crusader on the public scene for four decades. Although it remains unclear whether it is the consumer's interest he has in mind, he certainly doesn't care much for the choices they make.
"The consumer," (i.e. the average American) "must be protected at times from his own indiscretion and vanity." This was Nader circa 1959. His view has not changed.
Nader became most famous after attacking the automobile industry for "negluct" of safety. The industry was, you see, making cars that were less safe than ones that they could have been making. To Nader, this was sin. To reasonable people, it was just practical. Sure, the automakers could churn out invincible tanks for use on the road. The fact that no one would be able to afford them probably matters little to Nader anyway.
Detroit listened to some degree, however, and now sells high-dollar, gas-guzzling, outrageously safe SUV's. Of course, Nader doesn't like those either.
In fact, after a closer look, one begins to suspect that the Greens and others of like-minded philosophy would be perfectly content to tell you what cars, houses, groceries or underwear to buy — or, better yet, issue them to you from some "community-focused" location.
So remember the next time you pass a Green Party table or protest, they may look cute, young and energetically devoted to their purpose — telling us all how to live.

Letters to the Editor
Suggestions should include reporting assaults to police
KU's Athletics Department will be well served if it follows Barbara Ballard's suggestions for handling future sexual assault complaints from athletes.
But she left out one crucial first step for sexual assault victims: Report the incident to police immediately — before reporting it to the Athletics Department.
The Athletics Department has a built-in conflict of interest when one athlete is assaulted by another. That conflict was apparent in the case of the soccer player who was sexually battered by a football player. She first reported the crime to soccer coach Mark Francis, then to football coach Terry Allen, then to Athletics Director Bob Frederick none of whom contacted police or suggested that she do so.
As one of her professors, I was the first KU person outside the Athletics Department she told about the assault nearly two months after it happened, and I drove her directly to the police station. Designating Amy Perko, associate athletics director, as the person to whom sexual assault complaints can be made makes sense only if the athlete is counseled to first report such crimes to police.
Ted Frederickson Professor of journalism
The natural inclination of the University or any other institution is to contain unflattering news about itself. In fact, after the soccer player took her complaint to police, she was warned by Athletics Department officials to stop talking to the media about the incident.
Gay rights deserve attention, but not with obscenities
The gay rights movement has been here for more than 20 years. They stand up for good principles, good rights and good ideals. I admit that the battle for equality has been long and difficult, and the battle still rages onward today. That still doesn't change the fact that we stepped on the word "vibrator" Wednesday on our daily trek home from classes.
The obscenities printed boldly on the sidewalks of our campus today pushed the bounds of human decency. All the talk about gay rights is good, but the methods employed by the writers of those messages were just wrong. We just don't want to deal with learning about other people's sexual fetishes on the way back from class. Slogans like "Equality for All," and "Gay Rights Now" are fine by me, but phrases like "Spread the Word and Spread your Legs" just don't ring well in our ears. So intermingled among chalk drawings of the human anatomy and lude phrases, our decision was made. Rights movements are necessary, but they need to be executed with tact.
We believe that the obscene chalk writings hurt the cause of gay rights more than they helped it. For instance, our respect for the backers of the cause was severely diminished this morning upon seeing the creative new spelling of Dyche Hall, or the newfound use for the Vs on crosswalks. If we, as straight males, were to inscribe our beloved streets with sexual innuendoes, we would be looked down upon by the public. Why should the standards be changed in the case of gay rights?
In closing, we feel that equal rights for all are vital to society. However, expressing a need for equality in a sexually lude manner is simply inappropriate.

Editorial
Alcohol tragedies must end
Students should take time to learn about the dangers of alcohol abuse.
Alcohol remains the leading factor in motor vehicle deaths. In 1999, 537 people died in traffic accidents in Kansas. Of those deaths, 186, or 35 percent, involved alcohol. These are frightening statistics.
This week was Alcohol Awareness Week at the University of Kansas and, upon the conclusion of the week, students should take some time to examine these statistics and think about the consequences of driving under the influence. Drunk driving can result in injury to oneself or another driver and, most tragically, in death.
Designating a week for alcohol awareness on campus is necessary to inform students about the many effects of alcohol abuse. According to statistics on the Mothers Against Drunk Driving Web site (www.madd.org), between 240,000 and 360,000 of the 12 million undergraduates in the United States will eventually die from alcohol-related causes. More students will die than will earn a master's or doctoral degree.
Unfortunately, drunk driving is an issue that needs to be dealt with all the time, not just during Alcohol Awareness Week. Drunk driving is common on college campuses. Driving drunk is a felony in Kansas, as well as in many other states. People caught driving under the influence can face time in jail, revocation of their licenses or a variety of other punishments.
Students should take some time to learn more about alcohol and the affect it can have on one's life if used improperly.
The next time you think about driving home from a bar or from a party after having a few drinks with your friends, think about the consequences that you, your parents and your friends will have to face as a result of your actions.

I don't think I should pay the $34 campus fee next year because I'm not even going to be around when the rec center opens in 2002.
I think the only thing good about the Kansan is the Free for All.
True success should not be gauged in financial terms. It should be purely based on personal happiness.
Although baseball is the national pasttime, The Simpsons is the national cartoon and Jeopardy is the national trivia show, both of which have been cancelled because of baseball, and I think that's bad.

Explosion kills U.S. sailors
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a sinister slip through Navy security, suicide bombers in a small boat tore a gaping hole in a U.S. warship yesterday at a refueling stop in a Yemeni harbor on the Arabian Peninsula, U.S. officials say.
The blast killed six members of the crew, injured 35 and left 11 missing.
The crippled ship was tilting slightly in the harbor at Aden, Yemen, but the Navy said it was not in danger of sinking.
No one has claimed responsibility, Defense Secretary William Cohen said.
A shaken President Clinton said the attack on the USS Cole, one of the world's most advanced warships, appeared to be an act of terrorism, the worst against the U.S. military since the bombing of an Air Force barracks in Saudi Arabia in 1996 that killed 19 troops.

He dispatched to Yemen investigative teams from the FBI, the State Department and the Pentagon.
Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh talked with Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, pledged his cooperation in the investigation and visited some of the injured who were hospitalized locally. He insisted in a CNN interview that his country did not

narbor "terrorist elements" and said, "I don't think it's a terrorist attack."
The Cole is a $1 billion guided missile destroyer home-ported at Norfolk, Va. It had sailed through the Red Sea and was en route to the Persian Gulf where it was to perform maritime intercept operations in support of the U.N. embargo against Iraq. The ship has a crew of about 350 people.
Navy medical teams were en route to the scene yesterday to treat those injured in the explosion, Pentagon officials said. U.S. aircraft capable of evacuating the injured were also scheduled to fly to Aden.
Israeli rockets hit Arafat's compound
The Associated Press
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — In a day of incendary violence that left Mideast peacemaking in ashes, Israeli helicopters rocketed Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's compound yesterday in retaliation for the mutilation of three Israeli soldiers by a mob of enraged Palestinians.
The day began with U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan and CIA chief George Tenet trying to broker a truce to end two weeks of daily fighting. But it degenerated swiftly, with both sides unleashing pent-up rage.
The Palestinians inflicted the worst losses yet on Israeli troops, while Israel's combat helicopters staged unprecedented attacks on high-profile Palestinian targets and tanks rumbled to the outskirts of Palestinian cities.
skirts of Israelian cities.
One Israeli rocket struck 150 feet from Arafat's seaside residential headquarters, with the Palestinian leader inside at the time, his aides said.
"This is a declaration of war — a crazy war," sait Saeb Erekat, a senior Palestinian official.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak said Arafat does not appear to be a partner for peace at this time. Barak said he held Arafat's government indirectly responsible for the killing of the soldiers.

A freshman’s
Fourth-generation student Melissa Holland faced appendicitis and surgery all in her first month of school
By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
It started at 4 in the morning.
Peta read it in the morning. Melissa Holland's stomach hurt. She was nauseous. She couldn't sleep. Holland tossed and turned for the rest of the night on Wednesday, Sept. 13.
"I didn't think much of it at first, but it just continued to get worse," she said. "It felt like I had a big bribe in my stomach."
This wasn't what Holland, Iowa City, Iowa, freshman, had planned for her first semester of college.
But she was stubborn — it would be eight hours before she saw a doctor and appendicitis was diagnosed. The pain she felt that morning resulted in an overnight hospital stay and almost a week of recovery.
Holland shares a room on the third floor of Hashinger Hall with Michaela Smart, Omaha, Neb., freshman. Holland had already missed her first class when Smart woke at 9 a.m. Holland told her about the pain and Smart recommended that she go to Watkins Memorial Health Center. Holland said no, still unsure what was causing the pain. She tried to eat a little and then went across the hall to take a shower.
As she returned to her room, she doubled over in pain, unable to stand. "I told, 'OK, you've time to go to the doctor.'" Smart said.
Holland wanted to first talk with her resident assistant, Patricia Moore, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore. Moore convinced her that she had to see a doctor.
"She's the most stubborn girl on this floor, except maybe me," Moore said. "That's how I got her to go."
Smart and Moore took Holland to the health center and waited with her. By noon, doctors made a diagnosis: appendicitis. Holland needed immediate surgery to remove her inflamed appendix.
Stopping the pain
The appendix is a small, finger-shaped pouch of intestinal tissue between the small and large intestine. Once inflamed, it must be removed as soon as possible before it bursts and spreads the infection to the rest of the abdomen. Without surgery, the patient can die.
When she found out she needed surgery. Holland tried to call her mother, Jan Locher, a social work specialist in the bone marrow transplant unit at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. Locher and her husband, Steve, who is the patient coordinator for the unit, were unavailable.
Smart and Moore took the ailing freshman to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where she was examined by a surgeon and scheduled for an appendectomy at 8 p.m. Smart, who had missed two morning classes, left to take a math test.
Holland eventually reached her father, Del Holland, a high school teacher in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and told him what was going on.
"My sister had her appendix out, so I knew it wasn't that big of a deal," she said. "But I was worried about her."
"I was worried because I hadn't talked to my mother yet," she said. "I'd never gone into surgery, and I had no idea what was going on with my body."
Once again, Holland tried to reach her mother but was told she had already left work.
Then, a call came. The Lochers, who had spoken with the doctor at Watkins, had booked a flight to Kansas City, rented a car and were supposed to be at the hospital by 6:30 p.m., just in time for Holland to go into surgery preparations at 7 p.m.
Her mother said her first instinct was that they had to go.
"We wouldn't want her to go through this by herself." Jan Locher said. "We wanted to be there for her."
RA standing by
But Melissa wasn't completely alone — she had her RA nearby throughout the day.
"Doctors' offices and hospitals are really, really boring." Moore said. "I did anything I could keep her amused."
The jokes almost backfired.
"She kept me laughing, which was funny because it hurt," Holland said. "She made light of it, but at the same time she kept it in perspective."
In the afternoon, Moore alerted her co-RA on the third floor, Michael Payne, that Holland was now at the hospital. Payne, Colorado Springs, Colo., sophomore, and other students from the third floor came to the hospital for the afternoon.
Around 5 p.m., Holland was taken in for an ultrasound to examine her appendix. Her friends went to dinner and bought Holland a coloring book and a stuffed blue dog, which Holland later named Appendiblue.
When they returned around 7 p.m., Holland's parents had not arrived as scheduled. She didn't want to go into surgery without her parents, so her surgeon, Patty Tenofsky, agreed to push back the surgery.
At 7:30 p.m., her parents arrived. Surgery preparations began at 8:15 p.m.
"It didn't hit me until they came in with the cart," she said. "I started crying as soon as they laid me down on the surgery board. I was thinking, they're actually going to cut me open."
When she was taken into the brilliant white operating room, the nurses asked her what kind of music she liked.
"I told them, 'Anything but country,'" Holland said. "But they laughed and said, 'That's all we have.' And that's all I remember."
A changed attitude
"When it's your child, it's. 'Are you going to do everything right?'" she said. "But I felt very comfortable there."
Jan Locher said having her own child in surgery was different from her work as a health professional.
When Holland woke from anesthetics after the hour-long surgery, she saw her parents, RA and roommate. Locher said she was impressed with the dedication of Holland's RA and friends.
"They were wonderful," she said. "This is the thing that's really important—her RA stayed with her the whole day."
After the surgery late Wednesday night, Holland spent Thursday recuperating at the hospital and was released around 6 p.m. She stayed with her parents at their hotel to recover. By Friday, she could walk short distances.
Holland, a fourth-generation KU student, followed her parent's footsteps to Lawrence when she received a National Achievement Scholarship, similar to a National Merit Scholarship for minority students. Her mother also started her college career living in Hashinger.
Holland was not used to having difficulty walking - in high school she ran cross country and track and was a state champion in the 100 relay.
"I felt like an old lady because I had to sit on a bench and w halfway," she said.
Slowly, Holland recovered. By Saturday morning, her parents had left and she was back at Hashinger.
and she was back at Haskinger.
HER RA said the whole experience helped unify the floor.

spend four to five hours a day together.
Holland said that although she was tully to attend the University, she had a here. But experiences such as her recent attitude.
"The people have been great," she said. ates that fact."
APPENDICITIS
Appendicitis peaks in the late teens and early 20s. More males than females are affected.
- One of the most common causes of abdominal surgery in children.
- Appendicitis usually follows the obstruction of the appendix by feces, a foreign body or tumor.
Symptoms include abdominal pain, high fever, reduced appetite and nausea
If the appendix ruptures, abdominal pain may disappear for a short period, and the patient will feel better. In a short period, however, peritonitis (infection within the entire abdominal cavity) will set in, and the pain return.
There is no test to confirm appendicitis. The doctor must diagnose the condition from information reported by the patient and his or her own observations.

Late Night to follow Friday the 13th theme
By Zac Hunter and Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriters
The stars are aligned just wrong for this year's Late Night with Roy Williams.
It's Friday the 13th, and Allen Fieldhouse will be awash in a full moon. Still, the Kansas basketball players can't help but be excited about tonight's official start to the basketball season — even with its superstitious overtones.
"All I can guarantee is that everyone will have a good time," said sophomore forward Drew Gooden.
Because of the date, all skits will be centered around the theme,
"Surviving Friday the 13th on Phog Island." The central theme will be similar to the hit television show Survivor.
"Some people might get voted off," said junior guard Jeff Boschee. "There might be a couple of punishments."
Maintaining the popular culture theme, the senior women, Brooke Reves, Jennifer Jackson, Nikki White and Jaclyn Johnson, will perform a Charlie's Angels number, and they are confident that the act will be a crowd pleaser.
"We've been working real hard at it, and it's going to look good Friday," senior guard Reves said.
Although the seniors were more
than willing to share their skit ideas, younger players kept a tight lid on their act.
"It's a surprise," Juniors Nikki White and Fernanda Bosi and sophomore Kristen May said in unison.
But the biggest crowd pleaser of the night could come from the musically minded seniors on the men's team. Center Eric Chenowith's rock band -- fittingly entitled "Blink 7-foot-3" -- will take on guard Luke Axell's country singing in a "Battle of the Bands."
"We're actually going to compete against Luke," said junior center Jeff Carey, who will play in Chenowith's band. "And I urge the crowd to vote for us."
Axtell, meanwhile, was a little more tight-lipped about his performance tonight.
Axtell maintained the veil of secrecy surrounding tonight and said he didn't know if he would play his guitar. "I don't think we're allowed to talk about it." he said.
Another highlight will be Carey's rumored haircut. Carey hasn't cut his hair in months, so his locks now drape slightly above his shoulders. The long hair didn't pass the inspection of coach Roy Williams, who insisted Carey must cut his hair before the season started. But the haircut could come sooner than that.
"There could be some hairstyles changing," Carey said. "I won't name any names."
LATE NIGHT
When: Doors open at 5 p.m. tonight; entertainment begins after 10 p.m.
Where: Allen Fieldhouse
Where: Allen Hunt
Theme: "Surviving Friday the 13th on Phog Island"
Will it involve Carey?
"It might," he said. "I don't want to be too specific."
The finale of the night will be at midnight with a dunk contest and scrimmage by the men's team. But perhaps the best dunker on the team — senior guard Kenny Gregory — won't participate in the dunk-a-thon. Gregory said he would sit out the contest because of his lower back, which he strained Monday.
"I don't think I'm going to be dunking," Gregory said. "I'll do the little skits. I might play in the scrimmage. I don't know yet. It just depends what coach Williams wants me to do."
Williams could be at the center of attention, as well. Tonight will be Williams' first public appearance at the fieldhouse since he turned down the coaching job at North Carolina in July.
As a result, Williams is returning for season No. 13, which may or may not turn out to be a lucky number for the latest season of Kansas basketball.

Fans won't see volleyball this year
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
By Michael Riga
Tonight's Late Night with Roy Williams festivities will have a Survivor theme, so the fans who go might want to bring a tiki torch and hiking boots.
But they might want to bring some good books, too.
By virtue of the Big 12 Conference scheduling gurus, the Kansas volleyball team will not be playing a game at 7 tonight, as it usually does before Late Night. With the doors at Allen Fieldhouse swinging open at 5 p.m. and the festivities not starting until after 10 tonight, the fans waiting inside the Fieldhouse will have only themselves for entertainment.
That could leave a lot of bored basketball junkies. And Rick Mullen, director of promotions, said that fans couldn't expect very much entertainment ahead of time.
"We might have a couple of contests or something, but we're really not planning on starting things until later." Mullen said.
The reason behind the lack of bumps and spikes tonight is the Big 12. The teams in the conference rotate taking weekends off, and this is the Jayhawks' scheduled by weekend. Also, the conference dictates that all conference games take place on Wednesday and Saturday, so the only way Kansas would be able to play tonight would be if the Jayhawks brought in a nonconference opponent.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said
the chances of that happening in the future were very slim. Still, Bechard said the change in schedule wasn't necessarily a bad thing for him and his team.
"This is actually a great chance for me to actually enjoy the Late Night festivities and not have to worry about a game," Bechard said. "And I think the team feels the same way."
Still, Bechard said his team usually got pumped up for the large crowd. In fact, before Late Night in 1994, a crowd of more than 14,000 watched the volleyball match — a mark that still holds as the largest crowd ever to watch a collegiate volleyball game.
"I think obviously it's a good opportunity for the team, but it's out of their control," Bechard said.

The Marlboro Man could love this game.
The border war, the annual clash between Kansas and Missouri, means one football team's season is about to get smoked. If either team has any hopes of reaching the postseason, then this game would appear to be a must-win. But each team shies away from the hyperbole.
"We're not trying to look at the game as a do-or-die," said Kansas senior linebacker Tim Bowers. "We have enough pressure on us already. We don't need to add any more."
Similar to last year, tomorrow's game at Faurot Field in Columbia, Mo., could indicate how each team will finish the season. Kansas won last year's game in Lawrence, 21-0. The next week the Jayhawks lost at home to eighth-ranked Nebraska, but they showed a higher level of confidence than before the Missouri game. The Jayhawks won two of their last three games and finished the season with a 5-7 record.
Missouri, however, slumped after last year's defeat to Kansas. The Tigers, who finished 4-7, beat Texas Tech the following week before losing their final three games — two of which were shutouts.
Both teams' coaches have been scrutinized heavily the past couple of years for lackluster seasons. It would appear that this game could be a chance for Terry Allen and Larry Smith to prove their critics wrong.
More information
For a statistical breakdown of tomorrow's game,
See page 68
Allen, in his fourth year at Kansas, has been criticized for not being able to win road games — he's 1-16 away from Lawrence. Smith, in his seventh year at Missouri, revived the program momentarily, as it finished in the Top 25 in 1997 and 1998 — the last time it defeated Kansas.
But the loss to the Jayhawks last year fueled more skepticism, and Smith has responded oddly at times. So far this season, he has chastised fans who boo and scolded a student-run newspaper for publishing injury reports.
Last year, both programs were nearly identical, and each team is 2-3 this season. Allen said he tried not to look at the game as a battle between himself and Smith, each of whom has faced a plethora of public criticism.
"It's tough at Missouri and Kansas right now," Allen said. "We're both trying all do the best we can with our teams."
The game also marks homecoming for Missouri. With it comes pageantry and pride to defeat a team it will play for the 108th time, with Missouri holding a 50-49-9 lead.
"I've always big arch-rival games are big emotional games," Smith said. "I think it's better during the week to practice and prepare for your opponent and not run around like a chicken with your head cut off."

Jayhawks look for Big 12 berth
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
Even though the Kansas women's soccer team has never defeated its next four conference foes on the road, the team is confident it will earn respect and its first berth in the Big 12 Conference Tournament — as long as the players come out to play.
After concluding its home schedule, Kansas (7-7, 3-3 Big 12) will enter a five-game road swing at 7 tonight against Texas A&M in College Station, Texas. The Jayhawks will then travel to Austin, Texas, to face another conference team, Texas, at 1 p.m. Sunday.
"Being on the road is tough, but we're more than capable of getting the job done and doing what we need to do to qualify for the tournament," said Kansas coach Mark Francis. "We are definitely going to have to play well to win."
The road looks tough for the Javahaws.
Against its next four conference opponents — Texas A&M, Texas, Baylor and Missouri — Kansas is 1-14-1 all time and 0-8 on the road. Assistant coach Donna Holyman, however, said the record meant little for this year's squad.
Sophomore defender Nikki Wahle agreed.
"Our team has improved a lot since last year," Holyman said. "So we are looking to change that. We can beat anybody if we come out to play."
"I think there's a good chance going to the tournament," Wahle said. "I think our team can win the next five games if we show up ready to play."
But there's a problem: Kansas isn't always ready to play.
"Sometimes, unfortunately, we don't show up, and we don't play as a good game as our team can play." Wahle said. "I don't think there's one reason for the inconsistency. But we definitely need to come in the games more ready to play, more motivated, more enthusiastic and ready to have fun. And I think any team is beatable."
Kansas will need to be prepared this weekend because the two Texas teams won't be kind enough to provide a lucky victory for the 'Hawks. Texas A&M (9-5, 3-2 Big 12) is ranked 12th in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America national poll. The Aggies averages 2.6 goals per game, which exceeds the Jayhawks' 1.71. With then-junior forward Nicky Thrasher's hat trick, Texas A&M beat Kansas 4-1 last year at SuperTarget Field in Lawrence. Unfortunately for the Aggies, Thrasher won't be able to play today because of a fractured fibula.
Holyman said the Jayhawks' poor scoring percentage might have been one of the reasons for the inconsistency. In the past three games, Kansas, while taking 40 shots, registered only one goal.
"Our finishing hasn't been good at all," Holyman said. "We've been working on that in practice a lot, so hopefully that will prepare them."

Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 5.
A difficult situation should ease up. That's the good news. The bad news is that there's still a lot of uncertainty. If you like action, you should enjoy this show. It's hard to tell which way you should go, however. Stay on your toes.

You may feel stuck between a rock and a hard place. But, there's work to be done. Instead of worrying, just do it. Everybody has an opinion about how you should spend this paycheck, but don't listen. Hide it away, instead. Then, take some time to think — in private.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.

BASKETBALL Late Night a showcase to impress, snag recruits
While Kansas coach Roy Williams insists that tonight's festivities at Allen Fieldhouse are mostly for the fans, it is also a big night for the team's recruiting efforts.
图
Four recruits will attend tonight's Late Night with Roy Williams — a ceremony that officially marks the start of basketball season — all with plans to commit to a college within the next three weeks.
The influence tonight may have on the future of Kansas basketball is huge. Aaron Miles, a 6-foot guard from Portland, Ore., is ranked as one of the top five guards in the nation.
Joining Miles tonight will be Jamel Sampson, a 6-foot-10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., and Josh Childress, a 6-6 forward from Lakewood, Calif. Both Sampson and Childress are among the top 25 high school players in the nation, according to Rivals.com.
Also making the trip is Michael Lee, a 6-2 shooting guard who happens to be Miles' teammate. Lee said Kansas definitely led the battle for his school of choice.

Coach Marian Washington is hoping for a reversal of fortune this year. Last year, none of the recruits who came for Late Night signed with Kansas. This year Washington has three players in town, and she's hoping to see them in Jayhawk uniforms next year.
Of the three, Washington has her sights set on two of them who would provide great depth to the Kansas frontcourt.

Kim Gipson and Shauntinke Polk are touted as two of the top three post players coming out of high
吉pson and Polk are making the trip to Lawrence from the basketball-rich state of California. Gipson currently plays at West Chester High School in Los Angeles, and Polk plays at Hanford High School in Hanford.
both players would create an imposing force down on the blocks with Gipson measuring 6-foot-5 and Polk coming in just a shade shorter at 6-4.
The third player making the trip is 5-foot-9 guard Jennifer Sullivan from Jonesboro, Ark. Sullivan would add more depth to a backcourt that is already stocked full of guards.

Chili Pepper to offer tough competition
CROSS COUNTRY
The Kansas cross country teams will be in action tomorrow in the last tune-up before the Big 12 Conference Championships.
The teams will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., to participate in the Chili Pepper Invitational, and coach Stanley Redwine said the competition in tomorrow's meet would be tough.
In addition to Kansas and Arkansas, the Chili Pepper involves teams from Baylor, Oklahoma State, Tulsa, Memphis, Southwest Texas, Southwest Missouri State and Louisiana Tech.
"The competition at the Chili Pepper will be good," Redwine said. "It will be interesting to see how our two teams fare against teams from the southeast conferences. We need to have closer packs on both our men's and women's sides, and if we do that, we will have a great race."

Novice boats to race in Kaw River regatta
Kansas assistant coach Heather Galvin said the regatta would give the younger rowers their first experience against other teams.
The regatta will wind around turns and under bridges on the Kaw River.
"It's a great opportunity to race locally against people at their level," she said. "It will also be close, so their families can come see them. Everyone will get exposure."
The Jayhawks will send three novice boats carrying eight people each and two novice boats carrying four people each. Kansas will compete at the regatta for the first time in five years.
The variety rowers will be back on the water Sunday, Oct. 29 at the Head of the Iowa Regatta near Iowa City, Iowa.

Late Nights rare in Big 12
By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
When the Allen Fieldhouse lights come on tonight and the Late Night basketball spectacular begins, Lawrence won't be the only town celebrating a return to the hardwood.
Two other Big 12 Conference teams, Missouri and Texas Tech, kick off the basketball season with a practice at midnight tonight.
Midnight madness is nothing new to Kansas The Jayhawks have celebrated Late Night with Roy Williams since 1988 and played host to similar events with former coach Larry Brown. On the other hand, Missouri is still relatively new to the event.
The Tigers will have Mizzou Madness tonight. It is the second year of the event and organizer Nathan Maxcey, Missouri marketing associate, said he expected another big turnout.
"Everyone I've talked to said they loved it and had a great time," he said. "Last year we had about 5,000 people, and we are expecting a similar turnout again."
Missouri's madness starts at 10 p.m. with students and the band meeting on campus and marching to the Hearnes Center. Once inside, the crowd can try to catch free T-shirts, participate in a dunk contest or play games with free pizza and lottery tickets as prizes. A scrimmage will follow at 12:01 a.m. Unlike Kansas, there is no autograph session following the scrimmage.
Another significant difference between the two is that Missouri charges $1 admission, while Kansas' is free.
Kansas State does not have a midnight madness celebration, but it does have a scrimmage, which is open to the public, on Halloween night called Fright Night. Oklahoma State used to have an open practice two weeks into the season but has canceled it the past two years because of construction to Gallagher-Iba Arena.
Texas Tech offers a change of pace to latenight practices, featuring a scrimmage with members of both the men's and women's teams at midnight tonight. Doors will open at 10:30 p.m.for an autograph session. Like Missouri, the Red Raiders will have a dunk contest and will also give away free food, drinks and T-shirts.
Most conference schools don't have madness festivities because they won't draw a crowd large enough to make it worthwhile. Colorado tried to have Midnight Madness, but just a handful of people showed up.
Although Kansas does not charge for admittance, it does support a charitable cause. Jayhawk fans are encouraged to bring canned goods to Allen Fieldhouse to donate to area food shelters.
"Nobody ever went to it," said Tim Bush, Englewood, Colo. junior and former Colorado student. "It was basically the same stuff as here. There just wasn't a lot of support up there. Football was the big thing there and basketball was kind of a joke."
"There've been free tickets available as giveaways on radio stations, but it's $1 at the door. That money goes to benefit the Boys and Girls Club." Maxey said.

Tiger fans excited about mediocrity
As Kansas and Missouri prepare for their annual fall football squareoff, it might be enlightening to pay a cursory consideration to the nature of rivalry and just what constitutes a good one.
Border-war animosity dating back to the Civil War and more than 100 years of football battles certainly would segn to be the basis for a great rivalry. In fact, Kansas-Missouri is the second most-played football rivalry in the NCAA.
But for Kansas and Mizzou, mediocrity also seems to be the basis for this rivalry. Missouri's all-time record is now 541-462-52. Kansas is at 513-490-58. Though Show-MeStaters can crow about their superior record, neither program rivals the leaders of the Big 12 Conference.
Historically, the series has been closely contested (Mizzou leads 50-49-9), and that's largely because neither team has ever distinguished itself as a football power. This combined lack of accomplishment tends to dull the rivalry's shine.
What's interesting is the zeal with which Missourians embrace such mediocrity.
Football aside, this is a community where aesthetic expectations rarely rise from the gutter.
The Missouri media guide, for example, boasts the spectra of cultural events and activities that have graced the Columbia community. Such intellectual entrees include — get this — Coolio and WWF.
You've heard of the wine-and cheese crowd? This is the Natural Light-and-Cheetos crowd.
Perhaps this explains how a middling football team can inspire its fans into a liquor-bottle-and-battery-throwing frenzy. I guess Tiger fans can get a little restless having to wait all week until SUNDAY,
Kansan sports columnist

SUNDAY, SUNDAY! for the monster truck show. They just have to loose a little on Saturday.
Kansas fans, some would say, should try to emulate the enthusiasm (though not the hooliganism) of Missouri fans.
You'll have to forgive Kansas fans if they have problems getting excited about a football program that lingers in the shadows of one of the richest basketball programs in the country.
country. But one football game that Kansas fans can get excited about each year is the showdown with the Show-Me State. And this game should be a good one because both teams have plenty on the line.
Both Terry Allen and Larry Smith should look at this game as though they were auditioning for their own jobs.
For Kansas, this game is a chance to even up the overall series at 50-50-9 and to right a sinking ship.
For Missouri — well, we've already established that it doesn't take much to get people excited in Columbia. And one thing they always get excited about is a chance to beat Kansas — it's often enough to make a whole season at Mizzou.
When it comes down to it, maybe that's what a real rivalry is all about — one game that can transcend a whole year's worth of crap.
Prater is a Lawrence graduate student in journalism.
In battle of the bad, Mizzou will triumph
When Missouri plays Kansas at Mizzou's Homecoming tomorrow, you can throw out the record books. In fact, do that. Please
It's no secret that neither team is very good. Missouri has lost its starting quarterback, Kirk Farmer, and its backup quarterback, Jim Dougherty, to injuries. Wide receiver John Dausman tore his ACL two weeks ago, and No. 4 wide receiver Brandon Barnes is done for the year.
The Tigers' primary wide receiver, Travis Garvin, was kicked off the team two weeks ago for failing more drug tests than he did math tests, which is hard.
Missouri's new pass-happy offense, which at times utilizes five wide receiver sets, is in trouble, one would think, when it's being run by a third-string quarterback throwing to two wide receivers who started the season on the two deep roster.
So that's our excuse. Our guys are hurt, and even with them healthy, the Tigers weren't going to scare many teams.
But do y'all (they say that in Kansas, don't they?) want to know something astounding? We can still beat Kansas.
Maybe that's what makes this rivalry great. You suck, we suck.
It's like when the two fattest kids in your third grade class would race to see who's not the slowest kid on the schoolyard. Small consolation, but still competitive.
Kansas fans, this is the one game you have to cheer about all year long. Same goes for us Trumans here in Columbia.
So, you Rockin' Chalkin'
Squawkin' eatin'at-one-of-the-18
Taco-Bells-in-Lawrence KU fans,
make the road trip.
Actually, first go to Late Night with Roy Williams and pray for another second-round loss. Watch Roy read "Top 10 Reasons For Luke

And as you and 12 buddies are crammed into the flatbed of that '74 Chevy pickup — an upgrade from the John Deere you usually take road trips in — say hello to your gorgeous state landscape for me.
You may get bored, so ponder this:
If Kansans don't believe in evolution, how did the Jayhawk get his shoes? Seems to me he got tired of stepping on broken bottles of homemade corn squeezings and grew some Pumas.
And when you finally make it to Columbia, tailgate a bit and come into Faurot Field. Take your seats in the end zone and close your eyes. Imagine, just as Tiger fans will, that you're at the Orange Bowl or in Pasadena on New Year's Day. Get nervous. Pretend this game has more post-season significance than the Bud Bowl (which it doesn't).
And when the coaches and teams take the field for the Pink-Slip Bowl
— "losing coach gets fired, winning coach probably gets fired" — all will be right in the football world for three hours or so.
We may throw empty booze bottles; we may not. But we'll know, just know, that we can beat Kansas. And for two bad teams, that's worth all the hoopla.

MY QUESTIONS WERE ON THAT THE PRISON FLEW OUT OF MY POCKET PROTECTOR!"
YOU'RE KIDDING.
THEN WHAT?
John and Lenny both have a crush on Hedy (Gretchen Mol), a beautiful nurse in the neighborhood who used to be a bra model. They hatch a scheme to spy on Hedy having sex with her doctor boyfriend. Madcan hilarity ensues.
All these prepubescent high jinks feel contrived, and the characters two-dimensional. By talking and thinking about sex all the time, Lenny is just plain boring. So when the film takes a serious turn toward the end, and Lenny learns the hard way that adults can be ugly sometimes, it's hard to care.
Uncle Phil is an Italian stereotype, who cheers for Italian baseball players and walks around the house singing songs from Italian operas.
His mother (Patti LuPone) thinks it will be good for him to spend the summer in Queens with his pregnant Aunt Norma (Iiana Levine) and her Italian husband, Phil (Peter Onorati).
And what a waste of Patti LuPone. The woman won a Tony Award for *Evita*. What is she doing here? Actually, she's barely in the movie, but she gets top billing.
Lenny doesn't want to go. But once there, he becomes friends with John (Joseph Franquinha), the next-door neighbor who's also curious about sex. John invites Lenny to join the "sex club" he's in with two girls from school. They don't actually do anything. They just talk about it, which provides ample opportunity for forced wackiness.
Alexander fails in Just Looking
The Associated Press
Jason Alexander apparently is trying to channel Neil Simon in Just Looking.
The second directorial effort from the former Seinfeld star is like a reheated version of Simon's Brighton Beach Memoirs. Only this version plays with the forced chirpiness of a sitcom.
Alexander's vision of the Bronx in the summer of 1955 is idyllic. First-time screenwriter Marshall Karp, a former advertising executive and TV writer, said the story is semiautobiographical. In his childhood memories, Bronx streets bustled nonstop with girls skipping rope, old men gabbing on stoops and women buying produce from sidewalk stands.
He tells the coming-of-age story of a 14-year-old Jewish boy named Lenny (Ryan Merriman), who is obsessed with sex. Lenny's father has died, and he works at a butcher shop owned by his new stepfather (Richard V. Licata), whom he doesn't trust.

Duel continues border war
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Last Saturday it was the Sunflower State Showdown. Tomorrow it's The border war, when the Kansas football team meets its other major rival
- the Missouri Tigers.
The Jayhawks and the Tigers have been serious rivals long before K-State was as good as they are now.
The 108-game Kansas-Missouri rivalry is the oldest football rivalty west of the Mississippi River and the second oldest in the nation. Dating back to 1891, the series is remarkably close. Missouri holds a 50-49 edge, and there have been nine ties. The battle begins anew tomorrow at 1 p.m. at Faurot Field in Columbia, Mo.
The Tigers have suffered from the injury bug this year and are down to their third-string quarterback. Returning starter Jim Dougherty, a junior, is injured and out for the season. He has a torn ligament in his elbow on his throwing arm and may
never play again.
Sophomore Kirk Farmer earned the starting job this year but suffered a broken collarbone two weeks ago against Nebraska — leaving the quarterback job to redshirt freshman Darius Outlaw.
Outlaw, 6-foot-4 and 194 pounds, will be making his second start of the season when he lines up to face the Jayhawks. If Outlaw gets injured, quarterback-turned-wide receiver Justin Gage, who served as the backup last season, will become quarterback.
The Tigers can be expected to try to run successfully and take the pressure off Outlaw. Junior Zain Gilmore, 6-1 and 220 pounds, rushed for 169 yards on 27 carries against the Cowboys.
Junior defensive end Justin Smith, 6-4 and 270, leads the Tiger defense with 27 assisted tackles and shares the team lead in sacks with three. Smith has 222 career tackles and 14.5 sacks. His eight sacks last year tied
the single-season record at Missouri.
Missouri coach Larry Smith said that the 'Tigers' biggest problem defensively would be Kansas quarterback Dylen Smith.
Justin Smith said that the Tigers focused on the rivalry between the two teams and planned to be ready.
"He's a very mobile quarterback, and he has a very strong arm and moves around a lot," Smith said. "He runs the ball and won't hesitate to tuck the ball and run. He knows how to throw the deep ball 65 to 70 yards."
"KU has always been a big rivalry for MU," he said. "They always get up to play us, and we always get up to play them. We got shut out [last year], and we weren't even that bad of a team. We need to put that behind us, and we don't expect that to happen this year."
The Jayhawks won last year 21-0 at Memorial Stadium. After the victory, KU fans stormed the field and tore down the goal post.

Sooners charge into tough match-up
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
In the premiere Big 12 Conference game of the week, No. 8 Oklahoma travels to Manhattan to tackle No. 2 Kansas State, which won't be an easy task.
The Sooners (5-0, 2-0 Big 12 Conference) are riding high after routing Texas 63-14. The Wildcats (6-0, 2-0) haven't really been challenged this season and lead the nation in scoring offense, averaging 51.3 points a game. K-State is also No. 5 in the nation in scoring defense, yielding an average of 10.2 points a game.
No. 25 Texas at Colorado
The Longhorns (3-2, 1-1) will be seeking to rebound after No. 8 Oklahoma pounded them 63-14 last Saturday. Texas is 15th in the nation in passing offense, averaging 289.2 yards per game.
Colorado (1-4, 1-1) won its first game last week after losing the first four games of its difficult schedule. Colorado freshman quarterback Craig Ochs made his first start last week against Texas A&M and is expected to start tomorrow. Texas A&M at Baylor
The Aggies (3-2, 1-1) are seeking to extend a 14-game winning streak against the Bears (2-3, 0-2). Aggie running back Ja'Mar Toombs has eight touchdowns and leads the team in scoring.
No. 1 Nebraska at Texas Tech
Baylor quarterback Guy Pomchek has only a 43.4 completion percentage, and the Bears are No.10 in the Big 12 in passing offense.
The Red Raiders (5-1, 1-1) have a good record, but they haven't faced a team of Nebraska's quality. 'Husker running back Dan Alexander averages 112.6 yards per game, and Nebraska quarterback
Eric Crouch averages 95.6 yards per game.
Nebraska yields an average of 214.8 yards passing per game, but that may be because its opponents have been behind and had to pass.
Texas Tech sophomore quarterback Kliff Kingsbury averages 288.8 passing per game. He also averages almost 48 passing attempts per game.
Iowa State at Oklahoma State
The Cyclones (4-1, 1-1) have already won as many games as they did last season. The Cowboys (2-3, 0-2) will play without starting quarterback Tony Lindsay. He tore a muscle in his shoulder, and Aso Pogi will start at quarterback.
This game features the top two rushers in the Big 12. Iowa State's Ennis Haywood, a junior, averages 128.4 yards per game. Oklahoma State's Reggie White, also a junior, is averaging 117.6 yards per game.

Student health fees could rise
Bv Melissa Davis
by Michelle Davis
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students may be paying more for health care next year.
The University Student Health Advisory Board, a Student Senate subcommittee, along with Watkins Memorial Health Center, is proposing a price increase from the current student health fee of $69.50.
Jacob Eastman, Mission senior and advisory board chairman, said the amount of the fee increase had not been decided because the committee didn't want to increase health fees, which are included in students' campus fees, without looking at future needs for the health center.
"We are still in the early stages, so there is no exact number," he said. "We want to create a long-term plan."
Eastman said the increase would be decided within the next month and it was necessary and overdue.
"The last increase was in 1990," he said. "And I give credit to health center officials that they have gone this long without an increase."
WHAT IT MEANS
What's happening? The University Student Health Advisory Board and Watkins Memorial Health Center are proposing an increase from the current student health fee of $69.50.
What it means: Students will soon be paying more for health care costs. The amount of the fee increase will be decided within the next month.
What's next: The fee would not go into effect until next year. It would need to be approved by both the Senate Finance Committee and Student Senate as a whole. It would then go before University officials and the Board of Regents.
Eastman said Watkins did not receive state money and without an increase, Watkins would exhaust its reserve funds.
Randall Rock, Watkins chief of staff, said since the last fee increase in 1990, the increasing cost of providing health care had surpassed the amount of money coming in from student fees.
"In general, our income depends on the number of people enrolled," he said. "That hasn't changed enough to keep up with the cost of providing services."
Eastman said the increase would not take place until next year at the earliest because the proposal had to go through a series of approvals Senate Finance Committee, Student Senate, University officials and the Board of Regents.
Eastman said the money would finance services already available.
"The last couple of years, Watkins has been operating at a loss," Eastman said. "An increase is needed to continue to provide quality services."
Lea Martinez, Salina sophomore, said she didn't think a fee increase would turn students away from Watkins.
"I don't think students would notice an increase because Watkins is a primary source for us and it is convenient," she said.
Eastman said he had studied other health centers and the University of Kansas had more staff than both Nebraska and Kansas State, and was cheaper than both. He said he thought an increase was appropriate for what students received.
"Our health center is one of the best in the country for what students get," Eastman said. "We have it amazingly good."

Play challenges students' ideas of AIDS, religion
By Meghan Bainum
writer @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The University Theatre production Angels In America Part 1: Millennium Approaches is an in-your-face look at a controversial topic usually left in the closet and out of the spotlight.
Tony Krushner's Pulitzer Prize-winning play is about the 1985 AIDS epidemic. It confronts the audience with a raw look into the lives of people struggling to understand AIDS, homosexuality, death, religion and politics.
Rebekka Brossemer, Emporia sophomore, said all students needed to think about the topics, and although the play was set in 1985, the issues still affected the lives of people today.
"The reality of the themes of the show really set it apart from any America has ever experienced," she said. "I applaud KU for taking a step forward when there's so many people that are prejudiced against the homosexual community."

Panel members discussed how far the fight against the disease had come, but also told a group of about 30 people that 49,000 people were infected with HIV last year.
Brown said he hoped audience members realized AIDS kills heterosexuals and homosexuals alike.
"People have started to be less safe these days because they're like, 'we have all these treatments, all these cocktails,'" he said. "You have two people in the show you know of that have AIDS and are suffering from it. You really see the horror of it."

Businesses can't find sidewalk cleaners
By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
It's late night on Massachusetts Street. As the bars close, the outside vending window of Pyramid Pizza becomes a magnet for the swarm of revelers on the street.
Pyramid, 1016 Massachusetts St., is one of the few food establishments open for the after-hours crowd, providing take-out slices on paper plates.
It's these paper plates, beer bottles and cups littering the street that have drawn complaints from other businesses and have brought Pyramid's vending window and bars such as the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., and Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St., under city investigation.
Owners of these establishments have said they cleaned the streets at closing time, and it was the crowds after 3 a.m. causing problems.
Last Tuesday's City Commission meeting ended with an agreement that the bars would hire a service to clean before businesses opened the next morning.
Kathryn Dodson, owner of Pyramid, said of the 10 cleaning services she contacted, none would clean streets in the morning.
Three of the five late-night businesses in the 1000 block — Granada, Fatso's and Pyramid — had agreed to pay for the possible cleaning, she said.
The owner of Harbour Lights, 1031 Massachusetts Street, told Dodson he would not contribute any money, she said. Louise's Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St., had not responded by early westerday.
Until owners find a cleaning service, Dodson is cruising the streets and alleys until 3 a.m. around her business, picking up trash. She said not all of the refuse was from her business.
"I picked up five paper plates and four armloads of other people's stuff," she said of her sweep last Friday
Dodson said that she and her staff always cleaned their side of the street and until two weeks ago, she was not aware of any complaints from other business owners.
"I agree that I'm obviously a minor part of the problem," she said. "I want to prove to everybody now that I am aware of the problem, and I'm going to do everything I can to solve it.
"So far it's just a one-man army."

Caller ID likely for student housing
By Jason Kral
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Students are looking forward to the convenience and administrators are touting the increased security that caller ID would provide in KU student housing next fall.
The Student Housing Advisory Board will hear a proposal Thursday to introduce the service for $8 a year in University residence halls, scholarship halls and Jayhawk Tower.
Marliu Goodyear, vice chancellor for information services, said besides the convenience of caller ID, the service offered students security from harassing phone calls. Administrators were attracted to the idea after a man in New York made threatening phone calls to residence halls and scholarship halls last October. The man also had made calls to university campuses in South Dakota, Tennessee and Washington and was prosecuted by the FBI.
Sarah Homan, Overland Park sophomore, said she would like to have the service to screen her calls.
Anna Hines, assistant director of Networking and Telecommunications Services, said NTS could provide caller ID display units for a slight additional charge. However, students would be encouraged to bring their own units.
Sgt. Troy Malien of the KU Public Safety Office said caller ID would make investigations on prank calls easier because officers wouldn't have to search phone logs to find a call's origin.
"Being in college, it's a very social environment, and you get people calling you who you really don't want to," she said. "Especially since it's so easy to get someone's number."
To pay for the service, the annual cost for phone service in the halls would rise from $64 to $72. The fee, now included in student housing payments, would be separated on students' bills next fall, Goodyear said.

INCOMING
WHAT HAPPENING
University officials are considering installing caller id systems in University hallways, scholarship halls and Joyawater towers next year.
WHAT I NEEDS
Caller ID would allow students to ignore calls from people they didn't know or who had placed a harassing call to them in the past.
WHERE MESSY
The service would raise the annual cost for phone service in the halls from $64 to $72.

Mount Oread Program announces scholars
The Mount Oread Scholars Program recently announced the names of 320 freshman who are this year's Mount Oread Scholars.
This year had the most scholars since the program began in 1996. The program has grown by 100 students since last year.
The program offers opportunities to first-year students who graduate in the top 20 percent of their high school classes and earn scores of 28 to 30 on the ACT.
Students who were chosen as Mount Oread Scholars received personalized advising during summer orientation and the option to enroll in smaller classes taught by experienced faculty members. They also were given advisers in the academic field of their choice.
Sponholtz said the program, which was part of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, had been highly successful in serving students.
"We're trying to attract academically capable students who don't automatically qualify for admissions to the honors program," said Lloyd Sponholtz, program director.
"It has been successful in attracting high-caliber students and definitely successful in retaining them," he said.

Man receives probation for sexual battery
A 21-year-old Leawood man who pleaded no contest in September to aggravated sexual battery for touching and kissing a female KU student at a 1999 Halloween party was sentenced to three years probation Friday.
Andrew Lowe will spend three years in community corrections, which includes community service as one of its provisions. He also must register as a sex offender.
"You've done quite well up to this point in time, and this is one of the milestones," Michael Malone, Douglas County District Court judge, told Lowe during the sentencing. "I don't want you to consider this the end of the road."
Low enrolled in a long-term treatment program in Arizona on his own
in November 1999, his attorney said Friday, even though Lowe was not formally charged in the battery until February 2000.
Lawrence police said there were two victims in the battery, which took place at a party in the 1600 block of Tennessee Street. Lowe only was charged in one of the cases.
Neither of the victims was present at the sentencing because they had chosen to move on, said Angela Wilson, Douglas County assistant district attorney.
Man arrested after robbing delivery driver
Lawrence police arrested a man Thursday who was believed to have robbed a Gumby's pizza delivery driver at 2 a.m. that morning.
David Roubison, 20, was charged with robbery Friday in Douglas County District Court and was still being held yesterday in the Douglas County Jail on $10,000 bond.
Det. M.T. Brown said Roubison was believed to be one of two men who followed a pizza delivery driver to the 1400 block of Apple Lane, grabbed the driver's throat and demanded money and the pizza the driver was delivering.
Police said that two men had instigated the robbery but that the second had not yet been arrested.
Brown said police were close Friday to the other's arrest and were working with the district attorney's office to obtain a search warrant.
Brown said police were able to find Roubison because the delivery driver got the car's license-plate number.

Judge says Clinton influenced his decision
ALBUQUERQUE — A federal judge who sentenced a convicted perjurer to one year in prison instead of the recommended five said he based his decision partly on the fact that President Clinton asked for leniency when facing perjury charges.
Chief U.S. District Judge James Parker told prosecutors it seemed "terribly unfair" that the Department of Justice was trying to "pillorize" Ruben Renteria Sr. when Clinton was asking for leniency, according to the Albuquerque Journal.
Clinton was found in contempt of court and fined $90,000 by a federal judge in Arkansas for lying about his affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky in the Paula Jones sexual-harassment case. A state court panel has recommended he be disbarred.
prosecutors later charged him with perjury after he denied signing a consent form that gave investigators permission to search his property.
Parker imposed the 15-month sentence again, saying Renteria had served the original sentence and that Clinton's pleadings were the "icing on the cake."
He was convicted of perjury in 1996, but the 15-month sentence Parker imposed was thrown out on appeal.
Astronauts connect space-station cables
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — With a joyous whoop, two astronauts floated out of space shuttle Discovery yesterday and hooked up cables and antennas on the newest addition of the international space station.
Renteria, 49, was acquitted of drug-conspiracy charges in the 1990s, but
In the first of four spacewalks planned for this ambitious space station construction mission, Bill McArthur and Leroy Chiao connected a series of power and data cables between the aluminum framework, a girder-like truss and the space station's Unity module.
The men also rearranged two antennas on the truss. They attached the more powerful dish antenna to the end of a 12-foot boom and gently swung it out.
To NASA's disappointment.,hardly any of the spacewalking work was seen down on Earth.
Astronauts never have attempted four spacewalks before on a space station mission. The most spacewalks conducted on a single shuttle flight is five; that was for critical repairs to the Hubble Space Telescope.
Women march protests poverty, mistreatment
WASHINGTON — Thousands of chanting women marched yesterday through downtown Washington past the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund in a protest against world poverty and the mistreatment of women.
The Washington rally, which brought women from around the world, was a culminating event of the World March of Women 2000, which began in March in Geneva, Switzerland.

Student Senate may fund political, religious groups
Supreme Court case allows universities to allocate money
By Kursten Phelps writer kanson.com Kanson staff writer Kanson staff writer
Campus political and religious groups may be able to get student money that previously has been kept away from them.
Student Senate's regulation that prohibits funding for those groups may change because of last year's Supreme Court decision that said individual students could not dictate which groups received money from the fees they paid.
Five University of Wisconsin-Madison students sued the Wisconsin Board of Regents for violating their First Amendment rights. They objected to the university allocating required student-activity fee money to student organizations with contrary political beliefs. The Supreme Court upheld
the university's right to require all students to pay certain fees and to determine which student groups would receive that money.
STUDENT

SENATE
Ben Walker, student body president, said the implications from that ruling might mean that Senate needed to relax its funding regulations. He has contacted the University General Counsel for advice on what changes are necessary to comply with the ruling.
"It's an interesting issue because we're having a little bit of trouble getting specifics from general counsel," Walker said. "They've got a lot on their plate right now. They're in a transition period, and they've been a little bit slow. We need to talk with them before we make any changes."
Walker said if the regulations were amended, Senate likely would allocate money to religious and political groups for things like postage, office supplies and copying expenses. Senate still would not fund things like bringing speakers to campus.
"I don't think we've ever felt disadvantaged by not ever having funding from Student Senate. But if they did offer it,it definitely is something we

"In my opinion, it's a good thing," Walker said. "We're sitting on a $242,000 reserve account, so anything we do to make the finance guidelines less restrictive and allowing more money for our student groups is a positive thing."
Walker added that Senate probably would write in a provision prohibiting funding for student coalitions running for Senate elections. Those groups are now classified as partisan, along with groups like KU Young Democrats, College Republicans and the KU Green Party, which may benefit from possible changes in allocation rules.
Lisa Braun, Senate Finance Committee chairwoman, said the idea of funding religious and political groups would be a difficult adjustment for some committee members.
"I think that everybody has developed into the habit where we don't fund those things, so it will take time for them to adjust," Braun said. "I think everybody knows if it happens, it will be almost like a new law, and we don't have a choice. Once they realize that, they'll be excited."
Lindsey Chalfant, St. Louis senior and president of Campus Crusade for Christ, said she didn't have a problem with the rules. But if the requirements were relaxed, she said her organization would consider requesting money.
"I don't think we've ever felt disadvantaged by not ever having funding from Student Senate," she said. "But if they offer it, it definitely is something we would consider. It would be foolish not to look into it."

Even with U-locks, bikes aren't theft-proof
By Rob Pazell
Kansan staff writer
Adam Petticep thought his bicycle was safe. After all, it was locked up with a U-lock, a lock recommended by the KU Public Safety Office.
But when Pettipie walked out to the bike rack at the Computer Center, his bike was nowhere to be found. "I was very surprised," said Pettipie, St. Paul, Minn., senior. "They're the best locks around."
But according to the Public Safety Office, 10 bikes were stolen last year on campus, and at least three have been taken so far this year.
PREVENT BICYCLE THEFT
Research and invest in a good quality bike lock.
After his bike was stolen, Pettipiece heard that the U-locks could be broken if a screwdriver was jammed hard enough into the area where the straight bar and the U bar connected. But Pettipiece said he still intended to continue using U-locks because they were the hardest to break.
Although the U-locks can be cut, the Public Safety Office still promoted the lock because they were more difficult to cut than the chain locks, said Troy Mailen.
"In most cases it's the cable- or chain-style lock that's been cut," Mailen said. "Very seldom do you see

the U-lock cut. It's generally the hardest lock to secure."
Mailen said that because the U-lock took longer to cut through, more attention could be brought to the potential thieves.
Zak Sears, a salesman at Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 802 Massachusetts Street, said people tended to buy U-locks, but the shop promoted the cable locks because of their accessibility.
"You can lock up more of the bike with the cable lock." Seans said.
Sears said locks were good security measures, but bikes still could be stolen.
"If someone really wants to get your bike, they'll get it." Sears said.
Mallen said most of the new bikes
had quick-release components, which are parts that can be removed from the bikes' frames that make it easy for thieves to take away just the parts.
"We've had cases where a thief will just take a seat or wheels and leave the frame," Mailen said. "People should pop those items off, put them in their backpack and take them to class."
In addition to buying a good lock,
Mallen said it was important to register bikes with the city so the bike could be tracked down if it was stolen.
"Registration acts as a deterrent against theft," Mallen said.
Mailen also stressed a students' eyes were an important asset in finding their own bikes.
"Often times, the bike may be in use on campus," Malen said. "We've had a number of students in the past that located their own bicycles."

Perspective
Vouchers may hurt private, public schools
I would probably be more amused by the different ideas non-education professionals come up with to reform education if it weren't for the fact that those individuals often end up in power and try to implement their wacky ideas. I seem to be fresh out of chuckles when I hear politicians talking about trying to reform schools with vouchers.
There are many varieties of the proposed "voucher" system. The general idea is the same, however. Instead of funding public schools directly, the government would give each family a document representing a set amount of money to be spent on each child's education. The idea is that parents who are dissatisfied with their kids' school could use this "voucher" to pay for tuition at another school, be it public, private or parochial. This would force public schools to compete for
their students and presumably improve.
Not surprisingly, the idea is supported by many conservative businessmen and economists who envision the transformation of our primary school system into a vibrant capitalist marketplace — their preferred remedy to almost any societal problem.
I am so proud of you.
Proponents of vouchers say this reform would improve test scores and allow those parents who their kids are trapped

in bad schools to move them to better ones.
in bad schools to move them to better ones. My first concern with such a proposal is that it interferes with the separation of church and state. From the state's perspective, this means some public money would fund religious schools, not a role government should play.
From the perspective of private and religious schools, state and federal funds might open them to unwanted lawsuits and/or government regulation in such areas as outcomes, curriculum or their selection processes. Vouchers might have the effect of eroding the freedom and autonomy of such private institutions.
My greater concern is the potentially negative effect on public schools. The voucher system would drain money away from public schools that, in many cases, are already underfunded. Schools already in trouble would hurt even more when parents remove their children and the accompanying government funds.
The business types certainly will argue that the schools that lose droves of students would simply be natural casualties of the new survival-of-the-fittest primary education industry. Could public schools even hope to compete on a level playing field in such an industry? Public schools generally have to accept and accommodate everybody, including students with behavior disorders, multiple handicaps, learning disabilities and bad home environments.
Private schools usually don't have the facilities, personnel or the obligation to deal with such students. Private schools, by their very nature, can exclude whom they want, usually by cost. In that case, higher tuition surpassing the amount of vouchers could simply subsidize those already able to attend while barring those who can't afford to.
The easily taught students will be able to go to school anywhere, while those with educational difficulties will be left in greater concentrations at the public schools. Without "problem" students to tax their time and resources, higher test scores at private schools would become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Sadly, the more obvious educational reform, making education a spending priority by giving schools the funding, personnel and resources they have long needed to improve, really hasn't been tried. I find that odd, since most Americans prefer improving existing schools to providing vouchers, according to a recent Gallup poll.
I agree wholeheartedly that throwing money at problems in public education won't fix it, but draining all its funding won't be helpful either. Will vouchers help improve the test scores of some individuals? Maybe. But sacrificing public schools and risking the autonomy of private schools is too high a price to pay for an idea with so little chance of improving education for everyone.

Our United States of America is a nation of immigrants. We are truly the melting pot of the world. So, me being your average red-blooded American, you can imagine my reaction to an advertisement in the Tuesday edition of the Kansan from the American Immigration Control Foundation.
After my initial shock at knowing our paper sells space to an organization such as this, I examined what the ad said, and the complete pack of lies that this ad amounts to is what
prompted me to write this column. All of the following quotes are verbatim from this ad.
Now, before you right-wrink cranks start yelling about illegal aiens, here's a disclaimer for you all: This ad mentions nothing about them. If you want verification of this, please refer to page 3A of the aforementioned Kansan.
Quote: "Immigration can make —or break—a country."
Where is the evidence to prove this statement? Did
This statement, apart from being totally
the massive wave of immigration to our shores at the turn of the century break America as a nation? Absolutely not. If nothing else, it enriched our country in every way conceivable. The list of notable contributors to American culture and industry whose families have come from overseas is endless. If, as this ad suggests, current immigration levels are sending our nation down an apocalyptic path, then why is our economy the strongest it has been since World War II?
Quote: "Of special interest to college students; Current immigration policies may keep you from getting good high-tech jobs after you graduate."

Goode

inaccurate, serves, I believe, to inflame ant-immigrant feelings. There is no shortage of high tech jobs in this Information Age economy of ours. The only reason there is a perceived shortage of jobs is because not enough people are trained to perform them. Just give our education system time and money enough to remedy this, and it will no longer be a problem.
Quote: "The U.S. Census Bureau projects that U.S. population may double within fifty years — to more than half a billion — if the current unprecedented levels'of immigration continue."
There is nothing true about this statement. First, according to the Census Bureau, the rate of national population growth has been declining since 1960. The statistics speak for themselves. The population grew by 18.9 percent from 1951 to 1960, and by 13.3 percent between 1961 and 1970. It grew by 11.5 percent from 1971 to 1980 and by only 9.8 percent from 1981 to 1990.
Now, what do these statistics mean? They mean that despite the dramatic rise in the number of legal immigrants since 1960, the rate of population growth for the nation has steadily dropped. Therefore, immigration is not the problem when it comes to controlling the growth of the American population.
Couple those statistics with the trend in net immigration during the same period, also from the Census Bureau: From 1951 to 1960, net legal immigration was just less than 2.1 million. That number grew to 2.4 million for 1961 to 1970, more than 3.3 million for 1971 to 1980, and zoomed to more than 5.7 million for 1961 to 1990.
If immigration is not the problem, then, by process of elimination, the problem must be that the birth rate is too high. Contraception and abortion are effective ways to lower the birth rate, but that's another column.

Editorial
Regulations will inhibit researchers
New laws will be detrimental to the quality of University research.
Recently, the University of Kansas made it a requirement that any research being performed by KU professors must follow guidelines that may not apply to their field.
Normally, only projects that are being funded by the National Institutes of Health need to follow these criteria, but to the disappointment of many researchers, the University of Kansas is making those guidelines required for all studies.
Many researchers are upset with this change in procedure. The Advisory Committee on Human Experimentation must now approve every project on campus, but the University stands behind its new procedure, stating that it now applies the same standards to all projects.
Many say that short notice has been a problem. The mandate was decided in June.
Most, however, are upset with the fact that all research, regardless of topic, will have to follow this criteria. Whether it is performing medical research, merely observing students or asking questions, a 160-page presentation must be viewed and completed. This is a waste of researchers' time.
Although each side has proposed a valid argument, the committee is working toward correcting something that does not need fixing. If certain committee members are unhappy with how some projects are turning out, it should be remedied on a case-by-case basis, not by punishing those who have done campus research for decades.
The NIH criteria only needed to be followed by those projects that are being funded by NIH dollars. Is the tail wagging the dog?
Studying 160 slides of Power Point style information is clearly not an easy operation and is especially unfair to graduate students who are conducting research.
Furthermore, being overloaded with such information is designed more to make the researcher burdened than excited to gather data.
If this change in research procedure is being made to make all data presented in the same format and to the same standards, different methods of training need to be implemented.

Letters to the Editor
Chalk messages contradict Queers and Allies' purpose
As director of KU Queers & Allies, I was dismayed and disappointed by the statements by a few members of our organization. Many of these chalkings were not endorsed or approved by the organization of the whole, nor do they reflect the intentions of Q&A in publicizing National Coming Out Day events.
By presenting negative and offensive statements, these individuals managed to defeat the day's entire purpose: to celebrate and find joy in our individuality and in our lives.
The chalkings directly contradicted Q&A's purpose: to provide support services, educate about queer issues, sponsor social activities for the queer community, encourage the reform of discriminatory laws and policies, and most of all, to provide a friendly and accepting atmosphere for all.
We also want to promote the understanding of differences among individuals and groups in the queer community. While recent events amply demonstrate these differences, Q&A has resolved to accomplish its goals in a positive manner. Certainly, most of the statements chalked around campus failed to do so.
I would like to emphasize that the queer community is about the understanding and celebration of differences. We encourage people of all different political beliefs, ethnities, races, religious beliefs, ages, abilities, appearances and gender identities to participate in Q&A. However, we are not a political organization and we do not advocate offending those with whom we communicate or those we wish to educate.

Columnist's Boy Scout argument founded on bigotry, segregation
As a former Scout and troop leader, I've been saddened and embarrassed by the Boy Scouts of America's decision to discriminate against gay members. Thus, upon reading "Tolerance groups foster intolerance" (Sept. 25), the usual scratch of the head I give to John McCool's logic this time broke the skin.
According to McCool, those who have publicly criticized the Boy Scouts (radicals!) or encouraged corporate sponsors to withdraw funding are guilty of the same intolerance the Boy Scouts has shown in banning certain people from its ranks based on the irrelevant issue of sexual orientation — irrelevant, that is, to camping and good citizenship. So, if you're attacked and defend yourself, you're morally on par with the schoolyard bully! Logical?
McCool seems to be calling for turning the other cheek, an argument I'd come closer to tolerating if it came from someone whose beliefs on this issue weren't based on the uncivil and indecent qualities of bigotry and segregation.

this matter. It refreshes me to know that these individuals care about the well-being, livelihood and safety of both unexpectedly pregnant women and their developing children.
Both editorsials Wednesday proved that abortion is not a safe surgical OR chemical procedure. As a female, I shudder at a society which leads women to believe that suffering the physical, psychological and emotional trauma of abortion is their only choice when facing an untimely pregnancy.
Emily Vieyra Marysville senior
But at least those women on tables enduring the deepest violation and degradation of their life-bearing capacities and their own offspring are suffering in controlled medical settings with doctors present. I wonder, will women who take RU-486 experience the drug's severe short- and long-term complications easily, safely and/or privately? I think not.
Letter oversimplifies issue of helping the 'little guy'
This is in response to Brandon Bell's Wednesday letter to the editor "Conservatives falsely claim to stand up for 'little guy.'"
Mr. Bell makes a very simple argument: The issue of helping the little guy is handled by the liberals. Simply utilize the government to give the little guy more money/health care/college tuition and the problem is solved. Simple, right?
Anyone with "a modicum of political insight" can plainly see that conservatives who vote against these programs serve only big corporate interests.
It follows from this argument that every single conservative Republican in America is either brain dead or interested only in the wealth of corporations. Certainly, they can have no concept of morality.
Seeing the problem in such simple terms shows that Mr. Bell isn't interested in both sides of such complex debates. To take just one example: Look more closely at the minimum wage issue.
A higher minimum wage is not free money. It creates a surplus of labor (unemployment), because it fixes the price of labor above the market price. If the government were to declare a high minimum price for apples, there would be a very high supply (lots of people willing to grow and sell apples) and a very low demand (few people willing to buy apples at the higher price.) Why is labor any different?
Additionally, a minimum wage necessarily increases the price of commodities. If an apple picker is paid 15 percent more, there must be a resulting rise in the price of apples because of rising labor costs. What good are higher wages if everything costs more? For those who disagree, take your beliefs to their logical extreme: $50 per hour minimum wage. Then we'd all be rich, right?
Every issue has complications such as these. By not acknowledging them, Mr. Bell assures us that his "lens of reality" sees only in black and white.

I want to applaud the women and men of the University of Kansas Students for Life organization for their defense of women and children in Wednesday's Kansan.
Abortion pill fails to solve emotional, physical trauma
Exchanging ideas is the hallmark of college life
First I wanted to say how good I think the Kansan does. Lately I've heard complaint after complaint about how liberal the newspaper is. Being very conservative myself I have accepted that KU is a very liberal campus. It is impossible to deny that.
So, I just want to say that going to college is about learning from other people and sharing new ideas. It isn't about saying who is right and who is wrong. Acceptance, acceptance, acceptance is what it is all about. Instead of bickering about how liberal or conservative things are, learn from each other instead of complaining week after week. It gets old, and it doesn't get anything done.
Disgustingly enough, before this factual editorial on RU-486, I'd not read in this newspaper of any person, female or male, voicing concern for women's physical and emotional health in

Palestinians deserve a defense after coverage
University sends wrong message by cleaning up sidewalk chalk
After all the sidewalk chalk messages that have been written already this semester, the chancellor and this University decided to send the water truck out to wash off the messages about Gay Pride and National Coming out Day. What a great message that sends: It's National Coming Out Day. Guess what? The University of Kansas doesn't want you to.
Katie Griffiths Lawrence senior
I am responding to the deplorable coverage that the Kansan has given to the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. Not only has there been a blatant disregard of the issue, when the conflict is brought up it is considerably biased for the Israelis. Although I believe that there is fault on both sides, I think the Palestinians deserve a defense.
My husband and I have a satellite that broadcasts several Arab stations. The coverage of this conflict has been extensive. Although I don't understand the language I understand the visual images. I understand the young man with blood dripping from his face onto the pavement as he tries to stand and fails. I understand the vision of 12-year-old Muhammad huddling in his father's arms before he is fatally shot. I understand the other film of other children with bullet holes in their legs and chest and feet.
As an American, I understand the Palestinian protest marches, so similar to those that have always taken place in this country but have rarely been confronted with live ammunition fired into a crowd of men, women and children. This is what I see taking place in Palestine. These people are marching on their land. They are not invading Israel. They are not attacking Israeli civilians. The rocks being thrown at Israeli soldiers are in response to the occupation that Israel has set up in Palestine.
These rocks are being answered with bullets and armed helicopters paid for by the American government. According to a Nightline report, America gives $4.1 billion in aid to Israel while Palestine receives $75 million. Meanwhile, Clinton tries to convince Palestine that America respects both nation's rights equally. This doesn't make sense and the Palestinians aren't stupid.
I understand that both Israel and Palestine have legitimate concerns regarding their places in the Holy Land. I wonder, though, how much more blood can saturate the soil of the Holy Land before it ceases to be holy.

University of Kansas students who don't have time to stop by Writer's Roosts can have most of the advantages of a tutoring session at home.
By Cassio Furtado Special to the Kansan
The Writer's Roosts, which assist students in writing papers, began accepting online submissions during Spring 2000. When the service was created in Fall 1998, it offered tutoring only at specific campus locations.
Rhonda Sharp, Writing Center office manager, said the online submission idea was tried first with Edwards Campus graduate students.
"Many of those students do not visit the campus often, work and live far from KU, and have few oppoortu-

nities to meet faculty and writing consultants for face-to-face feedback," she said.
Sharp said that the Writing Center decided to open this option to all students this fall because of the positive response from graduate students.
However; more than half of the students submitting their work online are still graduate students.
Kristy Powell, Denver graduate student, is one of them.
"I think that the convenience of being able to do everything from home is great," she said. "Being in
grad school leaves very little time to make trips to the campus."
Writer's Roosts accepts a maximum of 12 pages and limits the submissions to one per student during a week. It also requires students to meet one time with a writing consultant before submitting a paper and to ask three specific questions to prompt the writing consultant.
"We like to read and respond based directly on the students' concerns and questions," Sharp said.
Students can visit them through Stop Day, Wednesday, Dec. 13.

Couple to talk about AIDS
Speakers to address impact of HIV virus in their relationship
By J.D. McKee

Kansas st writer
Shawn Decker and Gwenn Barringer are not like most couples: One of them has HIV.
Decker, a hemophilic, contracted the virus from a blood clotting factor used to halt his frequent nose bleeds during sixth grade.
The couple will speak at 7 tonight at the Lied Center about AIDS prevention and the affect the virus has had on their lives and relationship. The event is free and open to the public.
They now live together.
"We started talking to people
They met last year when Barringer, a case manager for an AIDS organization in Virginia, tried to find a speaker for an educational program about living with HIV.
Though Decker didn't fit her specifications because he hadn't contracted HIV through sex, the two became friends and started dating soon after.
After the HIV was diagnosed,

He dealt with the situation through denial and didn't talk to anyone about it for nearly 10 years.

"That may have been good for him at the time, but it had its setbacks," Barringer said.
Barringer said. When Decker was 20, he decided that he should talk to other people about AIDS, Barringer said.
"He didn't go to college because he didn't know how long he would live," she said. "He didn't know what to do with his life."
Decker said his decision to share his experience with other people has had a positive impact on his life.
"What would I be doing if I wasn't forced to ask myself the deeper questions?" he said. "Playing Nintendo and watching the WWF probably."
Barringer became interested in AIDS prevention when she was 18 and a 22-year-old woman with HIV spoke at her sorority.
"I thought, "This woman is like us," she said. "Why do we think we're exempt from this?" None of

Officials detail USS Cole attack
Experts continue search for clues missing sailors
The Associated Press
ADEN, Yemen — A blast more powerful than TNT buckled the USS Cole's deck and turned the attack boat into confetti-sized pieces that rained down on the destroyer, officials said yesterday in accounts that shed light on the devastation of the bombing.
The details, provided by senior U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity, also raised questions about the level of security in a port selected last year as a key refueling point for U.S. warships traveling between the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf.
There has been no credible claim of responsibility from Thursday's attack, which killed 17 sailors, wounded 39 others and punched a 40-by-40 foot chasm in the hull. Yemeni security forces have detained more than a

"Now exactly who was behind it, what their motivation was and how they were able to arrange it, that we can't speculate on," said Barbara Bodine, the U.S. ambassador to Yemen.
On the listing deck of the Cole, crew members gathered for religious services for their dead shipmates — some still wedged behind contorted metal

Also yesterday, the plane carrying 33 injured crew members landed at the Norfolk Naval Station in Norfolk, Va., while the other six injured remained hospitalized in Germany. The bodies of five of the sailors killed arrived back on United States soil on Saturday.
Meanwhile, experts began scouring the ship for clues and the bodies of sailors still missing.

— and, sometimes, human excrement. She keeps a garden sprayer filled with bleach water by her back entrance for cleanup.
"All I want is some type of reciprocal arrangement for the bars that are bringing in these kids," she said. "I just don't want to spend an hour cleaning up my sidewalk because they didn't."
Nancy Ness opened her store, Carmesi, 1012 Massachusetts Street, four months ago. The store is an art gallery, furniture shop and interior design center that caters to an upscale crowd.
Ness, who has lived in Lawrence since 1967, said people needed a place to buy food and go out downtown.

We encourage you to ask questions and be careful. When invited to participate, ask about the group, its history and its purpose. Ask about their expectations of members. Legitimate religious groups have nothing to hide and are clear about what is required to be a member.

COFFEE WEEK
Consider, for a moment, the cup of coffee.
As cold temperatures, midterms and late nights writing papers loom, the cup of java in a quaint bistro looks more and more attractive. After all, where else can students go to hobnob with friends, quaff beverages and still look as though they're doing something productive?
Consider for a moment, the cup of coffee. Bitter, yet soothing. Calming, yet loaded with caffeine. Dark and steaming, yet occasionally topped with frothy milk. The perfect weeknight drink for the college student.
This week, Hilltopics celebrates the coffee culture of Lawrence — the shops that dot downtown, the establishments' unique patrons and the special men and women who brew the cups of life-saving liquid stimulant.
On Wednesday and Friday this page will feature profiles and information about Lawrence coffee shops and the people in them. But for today, we thought it appropriate — as October chill filters into the air — to show these shops and their customers without much additional explanation.
One can find bars and liquor stores in nearly every city. Fast food restaurants are numbing in their ubiquity. But quirky, independent coffee shops are the specialty of towns like Lawrence. And that's worthy of celebration.
Or at least a shot of espresso.

'Hawks win illustrates Tigers' new ineptitude

COLUMBIA, Mo. — This was not the homecoming Missouri fans expected.
Columbia, in all its dreary glory, was bathed in black and gold on Saturday in anticipation of a Tiger triumph. Nearly every car was adorned with either a tiger paw sticker or a silly tiger tail fluttering from its bumper.
About 60,000 Missourians all thirsty for blood — flooded the stands surrounding Faurot Field.
But rather than feasting on Jayhawk, Missouri was forced to eat crow — and plenty of it.
Not even the usual array of Kansas mistakes could keep this game close. And the game wasn't even as close as the final score — a 38-17 drubbing — suggested.
Take away the 11 Kansas penalties for 92 yards and the three turnovers — one a fumble in the end zone that Missouri recovered for a score
— and Missouri starts to look as inept as Division II Southern Illinois, which the 'Hawks beat 42-0.
Jayhawks thrash hapless Tigers
It's tough to pick just which statistics best describe the Kansas domination. Perhaps it's the number of first downs Kennege 25 Missouri 11.
Or maybe it's Kansas' 453 yards of total offense compared to Missouri's 247.
Or, for pure in-your-face manhandling, it could be Missouri's 26 rushes for a total of 10 yards (that's .38 yards per carry).
It was probably a bit of both,
combined with a dash of history.
Watching the game, one wondered just how Missouri had been tabbed a seven-point favorite. Had Kansas been underestimated? Or had Missouri been overestimated?
After all, the Jayhawks hadn't won a Big 12 Conference road game since 1996. They hadn't won in Columbia since 1994.
But the 'Hawks threw all that baggage out the window for this one. The behind-the-woodshed whipping K-State gave them last weekend? Forgotten.
Yes, Kansas ran its usual array of draw plays — but some of them actually worked. Dylan Smith broke loose on draws for 35 and 34 yards, both of which almost went for touchdown<sup>e</sup>.
Coach Terry Allen changed practice routines, last week leading up to this game, and his players responded with their best effort yet. The plays that looked desperate against K-State looked unstoppable against Missouri.
While nearly everything Kansas ran was working, Missouri's offense looked anemic. Soon-to-be-former Missouri coach Larry Smith employed a gaggle of fancy formations and trick plays, but the only eggs laid were rotten.
And, all due credit to the Jayhawks, the biggest impression from this game was just how rotten Missouri is. By the middle of the third quarter, even the Missouri fans had figured it out as they funnelled from the stadium, off to drink away their sorrows.

By the end of the game, Kansas fans and players were the only ones celebrating, revealing in the pleasure of being a homecoming wrecker — a role they've long been denied.
Kansas excited for next game after big victory

COLUMBIA, Mo. — The fall foliage peeked over the south stands of Missouri's Faurit Field on Saturday, showing just how much change is taking place now.
Kansas' football team members didn't notice the leaves' brilliant shades of red and yellow. But their 38-17 win against Missouri showed that they're not ready to be dismissed like summer and let basketball become the only talk of the town.
"It's a whole new season now," said Kansas junior wide receiver Roger Ross. "We're 0-0 now, and we think we've given the fans something to come watch us for."
Kansas coach Terry Allen called it his most emotional win with the Jayhawks, and Kansas played like it. Fueled by a disappointing start and a humiliating loss to bigbrother Kansas State last weekend, Kansas played with vengeance and a mission.
The extra day of practice Monday and additional challenges in the more-physical sessions left the Jayhawks invigorated about a season that, up to this point, was widely considered a flop.
"It was the best week of practices we've had since I've been here," said Kansas junior cornerback Andrew Davison. "We have to keep doing it. We have to keep going with what's working for us."
Numbers were not on Kansas' side initially. Sensing that he was taking too many players, Allen cut the travel roster to 64 players from 85. Few Jayhawk fans sprinkled the stands, and the band did not travel.
But despite these obstacles, the win offered a feeling that the Jayhawks would like to bottle up themselves.
man Marc Owen. "That's what we've been looking for.
"It felt like we were really together as a team," said Kansas senior offensive line-
"God, we needed this road win so bad." Kansas ended a 14-game conference road losing streak and won for the first time in Columbia since 1994. The Jayhawks improved to 3-3, and 3-1 against Missouri with Allen as coach.
"It's our homecoming next week, and we're 3-3," Allen said of the upcoming game against Colorado. "But in our players' minds we're 1-0."
Davison and his teammates in the secondary were major factors. Kansas had four interceptions, two by Carl Ivey. Tim Bowers returned his pickoff 32 yards for a touchdown that ran Kansas' lead to 17-7 midway through the second quarter.
Allen said he was thankful for the faithful who made the trip to Missouri. After the team's prayer, Allen and the team crooned the Jayhawk chant to the crowd near Kansas' sideline. Running back Moran Norris introduced a more modern tune. "Who Let the Jayhawks Out," a spoof on the popular song.

Players display dance moves acting abilities
By Chris Wristen sports@kanson.com Kansas sportwriter
Instead of a nightmare, Friday,
Oct. 13th was fun for the Kansas
men's and women's basketball
teams.
Late Night with Roy Williams kicked off the season for both teams and consisted of skits to the theme "Surviving Friday the 18th."
"I enjoy seeing the guys acting crazy, watching the women's team and the men's team do those things that they normally don't get a chance to do," coach Roy Williams said. "I've always enjoyed Late Night just for having a chance to watch them, seeing Bryant Nash see if he can dance."
Players performed dance routines and parodied the movies I Know What You Did Last Summer, Charlie's Angels, The Blair Witch Project and JAWS while a guy in a Missouri Jersey wearing a Jason mask a la Friday the 13th lurked in the shadows.
Seniors Jennifer Jackson, Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson did a seniors' dance as Marian's Angels. The women's team performed a dance routine to TLC's song "Waterfalls" before coach Marian Washington took center court for a dance to "I Will Survive."
Senior Kenny Gregory stole the show as Michael Jackson, silver glove and all, with the women's team strutting in zombie fashion for a rendition of the classic "Thriller" video.
The men emerged from the northeast tunnel to the tune of "Kokomo" by The Beach Boys.
"They had me as Michael Jackson even though I didn't
A Battle of the Bands competition ensued. Juniors Jeff Boschee and Jeff Carey and senior Eric Chenowith performed a bottom-of-the-charts cover of Blink 182's "All the Small Things."
know what I was doing." Gregory said. "I had a lot of fun."
Outduelling them was senior Luke Axtell, who performed an original country song he had completed that day, bringing the crowd to its feet.
Axtell's prize for winning was ordering Carey to get a haircut; Carey hadn't cut his hair since March and was sporting a mop style shag. All that remains now is a shiny, clean-shaven scab.
"He said he was going to do it,
but I didn't believe he was going
Williams received the biggest ovation during a presentation about him prior to his dance. Sound clips of past games and interviews during his "I'm Staying" summer brought the crowd to a minute-long standing roar.
"It felt very good. It reminded me of 13 years ago," Williams said of the beginning of his Kansas career. "Coaching at Kansas is very special."

Scrimmage shows strong hustle but was marred by mental errors
The annual scrimmage following Late Night with Roy Williams was like a teenager's first car: a tad on the unaesthetic side, but able to get the Jawhests from Point A to Point B.
"It was pretty ugly, actually," said senior forward Kenny Gregory.
While there were some occasional rays of light in the blue team's 28-24 victory early Saturday morning, most of the contest was a scattered

that scriffimage, to say the least. Other than that, it gives them a chance to go up and down the court, test their legs and see what it looks like to be in basketball shape."
After the sloppy scrimmage, increased hustle was about all the 16,000 fans could take home.

That is exactly what senior guard Luke Axell was trying to do, leading the blue team with eight points.
Late Night Notes:
Friday was the first time Axell played in front of fans at Allen Fieldhouse since January, when he cut his season short because of an undisclosed medical condition.
He also noticed the Jayhawks' increased hustle.
■ Gregory said Thursday he wouldn't participate in the pre-scrimmage dunk contest and might not even play in the scrimmage. He said his back, which he hurt in his apartment on Monday, would be bothering him too
He said he was surprised with the fans' reception.
"I didn't really know," Axell said. "Dropping out of basketball like last year, coming back, and then getting that kind of reception — you don't get that at most places."
"That's something we're definitely going to do this year," Axell said.
much to play much of a role on Fridav.
He was wrong.
Thanks to what he called peer pressure from his teammates,
Gregory awed the capacity crowd with an assortment of
dunks before the scrimmage, then played a hey role in the practice game. Still, Williams wasn't exactly thrilled with Gregory's exploits.
"He's so wacko," he said. "I said, 'Don't go crazy out there,' and he said, 'I'm only going to dunk one or two,' then all the sudden it looked like he was flying through the air."
Because of his back, Gregory will be limited this week in practice.
One of the loudest ovations came when all four of the Jayhawks' recruits entered the fieldhouse.
Kansas welcomed Josh Childress from Lakewood High in Lakewood, Calif. Michael Lee and Aaron Miles from Jefferson High in Portland, Ore., and Jamal Sampson of Santa Ana High in Santa Ana, Calif. They walked onto the court to a standing ovation and were presented with Jayhawk jerseys with their names and numbers on them.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7.
Just because you think you're right, doesn't mean you are. Somebody else may still disagree with you—and with good reason. Yeah, you're cute, but when you listen and put in a correction, you'll look even better.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
You'd like your sweetheart to love everything you do — and all your friends, too. That may be too much to ask. If a loved one begs off on your excursion, don't worry. It's OK to have your own interests.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
If you get a bonus or find an extra stash of cash in an old purse, should you spend it on treats for yourself now or save it for some emergency later? If you have to ask, you probably ought to save it.
Sugartius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
If you hold out for what you want, you might get it. Be as unreasonable as possible. Act a little crazy and unpredictable. Don't do this with your boss or a cop, however. Only do it with the competition or your mate.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
All heck could break loose at work. Something you thought was fixed could fly apart. Pay attention to what you're doing and to what everybody else is doing, too. Prevent a mess and be the hero.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 9.
How about starting off your week with a bit of romance? A delicious encounter with your soul mate on a Monday? Sounds crazy, but you love being different. Either early or late should work marvelously.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 7.
Call and let the boss know if you're gonna sleep in or want to leave early. Be supportive. He or she needs all the help they can get. Don't be a distraction even if you have problems of your own. Offer a solution instead.

Kansas loses twice in Texas
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa

Kansan sportswriter
For the first time this season, the Kansas women's soccer team didn't split its weekend games, but the outcome wasn't the way the team had expected.
The Jayhawks (7-9, 3-5 Big 12 Conference) fell to two conference foes in the Lone Star State this weekend — suffering a 3-0 shutout loss against Texas A&M Friday in College Station, Texas, and a 5-2 defeat against Texas yesterday in Austin, Texas.
Texas forward Abby Gutowski completed a hat trick and midfielder Lauren Field added two goals as the Longhorns whipped the Jayhawks.
"We did not play very well today, and they did," said Kansas coach Mark Francis after yesterday's game against Texas. "They are a very good teamWe have to regroup and bounce back next weekend."
Kansas' first goal came after Gutowski made the game 2-0 with her first two goals. Just minutes before halftime, senior midfielder Katie Lens buried a shot on junior forward Natalie Hoovegd's assist. The goal was Lents' first this season.

Texas A& M coach
After Texas added three more goals, senior forward Colleen Colvin scored her fourth goal this season with senior forward Lindsey Horner's assist. The goal made Colvin the all-time leading goal scorer in the program, with 11.
Freshman goalkeeper Sarah Gonzalez made her fourth start this season and stopped eight shots in the losing effort.
Friday's game was also nightmare for Kansas but blissful for Texas A&M freshman forward Kristen Strutz, who scored two goals — including her first with the Aggles — and added an assist during a 3:18 span in the first half.
"It was important that we were able to score three goals in the first half," said Texas A&M coach G. Guerrieri. "It allowed us opportunity to rest some of our players that have been getting most of the minutes."
Strutz's first goal came in the 21st minute, when she collected Texas A&M forward Heather Ragsdale's pass and drilled it to the lower-left corner of the Kansas goal. Less than two minutes later, Strutz scored her second goal on Amber Childers' cross pass. Strutz then set up a scoring chance about a minute later, feeding Ragsdale, who touched the ball past Gonzalez and tailed it into an empty net.
Although Kansas held the Aggies scoreless for the other 86,42 the 'Hawks didn't really have a chance to strike back. The team managed only five goal attempts, while Texas A&M fired 20 shots at the Kansas goal.
With the weekend's two losses, Kansas' first berth in the Big 12 tournament remains uncertain. The berth depends on the other conference teams, but the Jayhawks may need one more win against a conference foe. They have to finish in the top eight in the conference to earn a tournament berth.
Kansas will return to Texas this weekend, playing against a non-conference team, North Texas, Friday in Denton, and a conference foe, Baylor, on Sunday in Waco.

Jayhawks run well, continue to improve
The Kansas cross country teams' season-long trends continued Saturday at the Chili Pepper Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark.
Freshman Laura Lavoie and junior Brent Behrens were once again the top finishers for the Jayhawks, and both the men and women improved on their team performances.
"I continue to see great improvement in both our men's and women's teams every time we race," said Kansas coach Stanley Redwine. "Our athletes
continue to work hard and when one runner doesn't run well, another seems to step up for our team."
The Kansas men finished sixth out

or 23 teams in the men's team standings, while Abilene Christian, Arkansas, and Iowa rounded out the top three.
Saturday was the Kansas men's first experience in a 10K race this season.
Redwine said earlier in the week that Saturday would be a grueling test on the men's endurance.
Behrens' time of 31:18 earned him 27th place. Juniors Brian Blachy, Mark Menefee and senior Charlie Gruber all finished within five seconds of each other, just behind Behrens in 38th, 40th, and 41st, respectively.
"We ran a really competitive race on
the men's side." Redwine said. "We packed well as a team and our goal is to continue working our way up in the pack."
The Jayhawk women placed 9th out of 25 teams Saturday, and Lavoie sustained her streak of being the top finishing Jayhawk woman in every meet this season.
Lavioe finished 32nd individually,
posting a time of 22:54 in the 6K race.
Sophomores Katy Elsemager,
Bridget Morrisie and Eve Lamborn
also placed in the top 60 for the
Jav Hawks.
"Laura did an excellent job today," Redwine said. "The pack was close, but we need to be a little closer to the front. I feel Katy Eisenmager stepped up for this team today and ran a fine race."
Saturday's meet was the final competition for Kansas before the Big 12 Conference Championships. Redwine said the Chili Pepper Invitational was great preparation and the Jayhawks were in their prime for the Conference Championships.
"This was a good tune-up for us before conference," Redwine said. "We beat a few conference teams today and that should give us confidence in two weeks. This team, both men and women, will be ready for the conference meet."
The Jayhawks will have two weeks to prepare before heading to Boulder, Colo., for the Big 12 Championships on Saturday, Oct. 28.

Doubles team edged in finals
By Brandon Stinnett
Special to the Kansan
One match separated two Kansas men's tennis players from a championship trophy on Saturday in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association All-American Championships in Stone Mountain, Ga.
The doubles team of junior Rodrigo Echagaray and senior Ed Dus reeled off three straight victories Friday and Saturday, advancing to the finals of the consolation doubles bracket.
But Baylor's Reiner Nuerohr and Mark
Williams foiled the team's title bid, handing Echagary and Dus a 7-5, 3-6, 8-3 defeat.
"It was really close," Ehagaray said. "It could have gone our way, but they played well at the end of the match, so they deserved to win."
KANSAS
TENNIS
After losing in the tournament's first round on Friday, Echagaray and Dus rebounded with a 6-4, 6-1 straight sets victory against Georgia's Chad Carlson and Bo Hodge. They followed that with a tough three-set victory, 6-4, 3-6, 6-4, against Stanford's team of Ali Ansari and Scottie Scott in the quarterfinals Friday night.
"The opening match today was a big win," said Kansas men's coach Ross Nwachukwu. "That will help their rankings — they beat a very strong team. The second match was tougher, but our guys figured out a way to win the big points when it mattered. Any win against a team from Stanford, the defending national champions, carries a lot of weight."
Kloppert and Jean Simon on Saturday morning.
Echagaray and Dus advanced to the finals with a 7-6 (6), 6-3 win against Texas' Ronald
nwachukwu said Echagaray and Dus deserved credit for bouncing back with three wins after the first-round loss.
"Of course they're disappointed about losing to Baylor," Nwachukwu said. "But that's no reason to hold their heads down. They played a great tournament."
Echagarray advanced to the second round of the singles bracket on Friday before losing in straight sets, 6-2, 7-6 (6), to James Shortall of Mississippi, the nation's 19th-ranked player.
Kansas competes in the ITA Region V Championship this weekend in Tulsa, Okla.
"The other guy played well, so there was nothing I could do," Echagaray said. "He served very well."
The Kansas women's tennis team also was in action this weekend as freshman Emily Haylock captured the No. 4 singles flight title yesterday in the eighth annual Hurricane Tennis Invitational in Tulsa.
Haylock breezed through the competition, losing just one set in three matches. She defeated Tulsa's Mariana Barrios 6-3, 7-6 (4) in the finals.
Haylock won another title in the tournament as well. She and sophomore Kim Lorenz teamed up and won the No.2 doubles crown on Saturday by knocking off Tulsa's Bianca Posada and Aleksandra Durska, 8-4, in the championship match.
"Emily really came into her own and didn't lose a match in either singles or doubles," said Kansas women's coach Kilmeny Waterman. "This will be good for her confidence and a great jumping-off point for the rest of the season."

Goalkeeper helps Wizards win league
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Kansas City Wizards scored a clumsy early goal, survived some strange bounces and rode the play of goalkeeper Tony Meola to their first Major League Soccer championship.
The Wizards beat the Chicago Fire 1-0 yesterday, winning the league Cup. Miklos Molnar scored in the 11th minute and Meola added the game's MVP award to the season MVP trophy he won Friday.
After the final whistle, Meola fell on his back, hands to his face, while the rest of the team jumped on him.
"We came out determined to win," he said. "We knew we had a team to win."
Meola made 10 saves, three in the final 10 minutes. He dived right to stop John Wolff in the 82nd, cradled a close-range attempt from Dema Kovalenko in the 83rd and got his chest in the way of a 13-yard bullet from Hristo Stoitchkov in the 86th
WIZARDS
It was the record fifth shutout of the playoffs for Meola, the U.S. national team goalkeeper at the 1990 and
1994 World Cups. Meola also set league records with 16 shutouts during the regular season and a scoreless streak of 681 minutes over eight games.
The game pitted the league's best offense (Chicago) against its best defense (Kansas City). Predictably, Chicago outshot Kansas City 22-6, but the Fire couldn't get a shot past Meola.
This was the first Major League Soccer Cup without three-time champion D.C. United, making RFK Stadium a neutral site. Still, the game drew 39,159 fans.
Like many soccer finals, the game was mostly tight and tense and hardly a showcase of great plays. Molnar's goal wasn't exactly a classic, while teammate Chris Klein botched a 'breakaway that could have made it 2-0 in the first half.
One of Chicago's best scoring chances resulted from a misfired shot, and another came on a funky bounce after a blocked free kick.
Molnar's goal came after Klein made a nice run down the right wing. Klein's cross was fanned by Kansas City's Preki, then Chicago's Jesse Marsch had the ball on his foot but didn't clear. With the ball rolling in the box, Molnar finally pushed it off the right post and into the net for his fifth goal of the playoffs.
Stotttchkov, the fire's flamboyant Bulgarian star, called for the ball early and often and argued with the referee when calls didn't go his way.

Defense flags Jayhawks' victory
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
By Allan Davis
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Rebounding after sub-par performances against Oklahoma and Kansas State, the Kansas defense stiffed Missouri's attack on Saturday, particularly in the second half.
The Jayhawks came home from Columbia, Mo., with an unexpected Big 12 Conference road triumph, dominating the Tigers 38-17
Kansas coach Terry Allen said he was pleased with the defense's performance.
"I thought our defense played exceptionally well," he said. "Our defense totally controlled the football game, and then we stayed
together as a football team."
Allen added that the key to the lopsided score was a strong finish as the Jayhawks physically dominated the Tigers in the second half.
"One of the things that we were critical of ourselves about was that we weren't physical enough, and we weren't tough enough," he said. "We were the more physical and the tougher team in the second half today."
Carl Nesmith, senior free safety and co-captain, said this week's practice prepared the Jayhawks to stop the Missouri offense.
"We pretty much knew, coming into the game, (if) we could stop their rushing game we would be successful because they had a
freshman quarterback," he said. "We didn't think that he can win by throwing the ball. So we figured if we could stop the rush, then we had a good chance to win."
Nate Dwyer said the defense thought they could stifle the Tiger attack.
"We knew they couldn't run against us, and we knew they couldn't pass against us," he said. "And I think they kind of knew it, too. You could see it in their eyes just coming out on the field. They were hesitant, and they were scared. So I think we had them beat from the get-go."
Dwyer said the defense had studied the Tiger linemen and worked on tactics to handle them.
"We studied a lot of tape on their offensive linemen and things we can do to beat them, and it worked," he said. "All the studying paid off."
Senior linebacker and co-captain Tim Bowers, who intercepted a pass and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown, said what he learned in practice prepared him to make the interception.
"I saw a guy run across my face, and what we go over in practice is the majority of the time, if somebody's crossing your face, somebody else is coming behind you," he said. "So I just happened to (be there) at the right time and got lucky and caught the ball."

No. 3 Oklahoma 41, No. 10 Kansas State 31
No. 3 Oklahoma 41, No. 10 Kansas State 52
No. 8 Oklahoma (6-0, 3-0 Big 12 Conference)
built a 38-14 third-quarter lead against No. 2
Kansas State (6-1, 2-1) and withstood a late
Wildcat charge, winning 41-31 at Manhattan.
The Wildcats closed the gap to 38-31 early in
the fourth quarter but could get no closer.
Sooner quarterback Josh Heupel solidified his bid for postseason honors by completing 29 of 37 passes for 374 yards and two touchdowns.
Bill Snyder's K-State teams are now 1-18 against top-10 teams.
No. 1 Nebraska 56. Texas Tech 3
The loss dropped Kansas State to No. 10 in the Associated Press poll and improved Oklahoma to No.3.
Nebraska (6-0, 3-0) jumped out to a 28-0 halftime lead against the Red Raiders (5-2, 1-2) and coasted to victory in Lubbock, Texas.
Texas Tech came into the game allowing an average of only 9.8 points a game, but they
couldn't keep up with the Cornhuskers.
Nebraska's Dan Alexander ran for 120 yards, and Corrall Buckhalter added 113. The Cornhuskers gained 540 total yards.
Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury was 20-of-37 for 165 yards, but the Red Raiders could muster only a third-quarter field goal.
Texas 28, Colorado 14
Longhorn quarterback Major Applewhite threw three touchdown passes, two of them to - freshman receiver Roy Williams, and Texas beat the Buffaloes in Boulder. Colo.
Texas (4-2, 2-1) held Colorado (1-5, 1-2) to 22 vards in the first half.
In the third quarter, Buffalo Zac Colvin, the starting quarterback at the start of the season, replaced ineffective freshman Craig Ochs, who failed to put any points on the scoreboard.
Despite the win, Texas dropped out of this week's Associated Press poll.
Iowa State 33, Oklahoma State 26
in Stillwater, Okla., Cyclone quarterback Sage Rosenfels connected with Lane Danielson for a game-winning, 33-yard touchdown pass with 18 seconds remaining.
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Oklahoma State (2-4, 0-3) had tied the game on a 34-yard field goal by Seth Condley with 2:41 remaining in the game.
Iowa State (5-1, 1-2) took advantage of three Cowboy turnovers to score 13 fourth-quarter points.
Cyclone freshman Michael Wagner ran for 170 yards and three touchdowns. He was subbing for Big 12-leading rusher Ennis Haywood, who sat out because of bruised ribs.
Texas A&M 24, Baylor O
Aggie quarterback Mark Farris passed for 311 yards and a touchdown, and Texas A&M (4-2, 2-1) shut out Baylor (2-4, 0-3) in Waco. Texas Farris completed 22 of 40 passes.
Bear freshman quarterback Kerry Dixon, making his first start, completed 11 of 27 passes for 107 yards and threw four interceptions.

Perhaps Republicans could pass emergency legislation requiring all Americans to watch the debate or risk stiff penalties. An alternate proposal for Democrats: Enact a law providing generous tax incentives to everyone who tunes in.
Viewers will face temptation yet again from Dark Angel, as well as from The WB's teen drama Angel and countless other diversions lurking elsewhere on broadcast and cable channels.
YOU, TOO,
BABE!
This threat continues with the final face-off between Bush and Gore (airing at 8 p.m. tomorrow on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, Fox News Channel, MSNBC and C-SPAN).
Humdrum debates drive away viewers
At the last minute, NBC gave its outlets the choice of carrying the debate or the baseball game it had originally scheduled. Fox went ahead and aired Dark Angel, a sci-fi drama about a sexy superwoman in a fetching cat suit.
NEW YORK — With only one debate to go between Al Gore and George W. Bush, another debate goes on: What good are these presidential face-offs?
This posed a terrible threat to the republic. Although the debate was carried live on at least three broadcast networks and four cable outlets, viewers felt the lure of all that other, noncivic-minded fare. Millions, helpless to resist, fell prey to temptation.
The Associated Press
But before the first debate had aired, it was already at the center of an uproar. That happened when NBC and Fox announced their intention not to carry it live. They were shirking a fundamental obligation, as FCC Chairman William Kennard scolded.
Overrehearsed, unrevealing, boring — those are some of the complaints lodged against them, as if somehow the debates should bear the blame for the debaters.
But could it be that, if they're really so dull, the debates are serving their purpose very well by revealing the candidates as formula-driven, overcautious and, other than those irrevocable differences in personal style, blandly interchangeable.
Who says a presidential debate must be gripping to be worthywhile?
CBS News anchor Dan Rather, for one. It was Rather who proclaimed long stretches of the first Bush-Gore encounter pedantic, dull, unimaginative, lackluster and humdum. Odds are, he spoke for many.

Section B · Page 7
Washington pleased following intense practice
By Zac Hunter
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The Kansas women's basketball team worked hard on its performances for Late Night.
And after all the fun and games Friday night, what did the Hawks get as a reward? A big dose of reality in the form of a three-hour practice Saturday afternoon, officially starting the season.
Marian Washington, starting her 28th year as coach, said she was happy with the way her team practiced and maintained its intensity.
After the practice, Washington credited her veteran players for establishing that intensity.
While Washington was complimenting her veterans, senior guard Jennifer Jackson was giving credit to the five newcomers
for keeping up with the fast pace and adjusting to the practice style quickly.
Jackson credited part of their success to the new training regimen started in the off-season.
The players did catch a little bit of a break because of some leftover props from Late Night. Some candle wax had spilled onto the court, prohibiting Washington from running a more intense, full-court practice.
Kansas' first practice also gave the recruits that visited for Late Night an idea of what life would be like in a Jayhawk uniform.
"They got off the hook," Washington said. "We couldn't go like we wanted to with some of the condition work."
tinuously supported one another and cheered one another on.
What they saw was an intense practice in which the players con-
While Washington won't know if any of the recruits will commit until at least November, she seemed confident at least one of the three recruits would participate in next year's first practice.
"You never know, but at least with all three of them we really relate well." Washington said.
Although Washington would like to have any of the recruits, there are two who would provide depth to Kansas' frontcourt.
Kim Gipson, West Chester High School in Los Angeles, and Shaunntinke Polk, Hanford High School in Hanford, Calif., are versatile post players with good hands. The third player visiting the weekend was defensive specialist Jennifer Sullivan,
Jonesboro High School in Jonesboro, Ark., who would deepen an already stocked backcourt.
"Hopefully, we'll have three new Jayhawks in uniform next year," Jackson said.
After the practice, Washington and the team took the recruits on a tour of the team's training and playing areas.
Washington said she hoped the magic of Late Night would be a determining factor in that decision and that she anxiously would await hearing from the recruits in November.
She credited Kansas' basketball fans for making Late Night such a success by being very knowledgeable and appreciative.
Huntington said, "They had to." — Edited by Erin McDaniel

Students take on daily uphill battles
By Leita Schultes
writer @kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
For about 500 University of Kansas students with disabilities, college presents various types of challenges.
Rachel Magario, a blind sophomore from Brazil, stood on Jayhawk Boulevard yesterday afternoon, waiting for a ride from the University's transportation system.
It's a big problem, she said. If she has to stay late or talk to a professor after class, she has to cancel her ride the day before. If she doesn't, it's a no-show, and three no-shows mean no more rides.
Then there's Brenda VanHyning, who says being a student with a disability can mean lower grades. VanHyning said she was usually an A or B student, but during Fall 1995, she didn't have note-takers and her graded skipped to C's and D's.
"I was frustrated, all because I didn't have the help I needed," she said.
The office of Services for Students with Disabilities tries to provide that help. The office's director, Lorna Zimmer, said its relationship with the University's nearly 500 students with disabilities was not a one-way street.
"I think this is all a partnership, and not just between our office and the students, but also with the faculty," she said.
When 'sick' means more than missing class
Zimmer has faith in the office to help University students with disabilities, but she said there was room for improvements. VanHyning agreed and said those improvements needed to be campus-wide.
At 36 years old, VanHyning has had 34 surgeries on her right hand and 14 on her left. Doctors have performed 16 procedures on her stomach and esophagus, and during the summer, doctors removed a malignant tumor from her body. While they were operating, they found skin cancer on her back.
VanHyning, Lenexa senior, has a progressed stage of gastro esophageal reflux disease, which was diagnosed in 1996 and causes the reflux of stomach contents into her esophagus. The debilitating results of a 1981 car accident don't help her physical condition.
VanHyning has a hard time writing and can't keep up taking notes in class. Her thought processes are a little slower than most students' because of a 1997 stroke, and she has struggled to get tests done in time. Her immune system is

Assault victim agrees with report
Professors doubt new procedures will be adequate
By Katie Hollar and Lauren Brandenburg writer@kansan.com

The soccer player allegedly assaulted by two Kansas football players last spring agrees with Barbara Ballard's assessment of her situation.
ations.
In a report released last week, Ballard, vice-chancellor for student affairs, said the Athletics Department tried its best to handle the assault, but didn't have the policies or knowledge to do so. Ballard outlined 12 steps the department could take to properly handle any similar situ-
The victim said she liked Ballard's ideas.
"All I'm hoping right now is that something good will come out of this," she said. "If something similar ever happens again to someone else, it is my belief that the department will handle it much differently."
But report aside, she said that what happened to her could never be undone.
The department has said it would follow the procedures suggested in Ballard's report, but Ted Frederickson, professor of journalism, who took the soccer player to the police station last spring, said he did not think it was enough.
"I have two opinions." Frederickson said. "One, they really need to have policies and procedures, and I think Barbara Ballard has provided them with some good ones. But there is one glaring omission: They needed to say that the athlete who's been sexually assaulted go to police first. She has them going to Amy
Perko [an associate athletics director], and I think anyone within the Athletics Department has a severe conflict of interest when any athlete is sexually assaulted by another athlete."
Frederickson said his concern was that the Athletics Department still had room to keep the complaint within the department.
"I don't think sexual crime is the business of the Athletics Department," Frederickson said. "I don't think a system that makes sexual assault the business of the Athletics Department is a good system. I'm probably the first person outside the Athletics Department that she talked to, and I took her to the police station."
Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism, spoke out against the department last spring for its handling of the soccer player's situation.
Holstead said the department took a step in the right direction by asking Ballard to look into how the department handled the incident, but she said she still could recognize "what might be perceived as a loophole."
After reading the report, she said she shared Frederickson's concerns.
Frederickson said he still thought the female soccer player's complaint had been overlooked.
"As for her case, I don't think they've really handled that case," he said. "The player who did this is starting for the football team every Saturday, and as far as I know, the only thing that's ever happened to him is he's had to run stairs at Memorial Stadium."
"The mentality the Athletics
Department has shown is to keep things under wraps," Holstein said. "No one wants to reveal embarrassing incidents, but what happened last spring was way beyond an embarrassing incident. A law was broken. It was not handled anywhere near sufficiently."

Missouri governor Carnahan feared dead in plane crash
The Associated Press
GOLDMAN, Mo. — A plane believed to be carrying Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan crashed about 25 miles south of St. Louis last night, the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department said.
"We believe that it may be the governor's plane," said Sgt. Ed Kemp, of the department. "We're still searching."
Earlier in the evening, Jerry Nachtigal, the governor's spokesman in Jefferson City, refused to comment on televised reports that Carnahan was on the plane.
"A plane has crashed in Jefferson County, and that's all we know," Nachtigal said.

debris from the crash was scattered making identification of the plane difficult.
Around 12:30 a.m., authorities said they had called off the search for the night because it was too dark and too dangerous, and they have secured the area around the crash.
"It's a very rural area, heavily wooded with rock bluffs," Kemp said.
McDonald said the governor's security staff was on site because they had not heard from Carnahan and tensions were high that it was the governor's plane.
The plane went down about 7:30 p.m. in an area near Goldman in Jefferson County
"We have found some remains we cannot identify at this point."
Sgt. Ed Kemp Jefferson County Sheriff's Officer
The area is thick with trees, scattered farmhouses and fields.
"We found wreckage in very small pieces spread over a large area," Kemp said. "We have found some remains we cannot identify at this point." He said it was unclear if the remains were those of one or more people.
Carnahan, who is completing his second term as governor, won the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in August and has been engaged in a heated battle with Sen. John Ashcroft, R-Mo., a race considered one of the top ones in the nation.
According to Carnahan's travel schedule, the governor was traveling to Parks Bi-State Airport in Illinois across the river from St. Louis.
He was to leave from there and head to New Madrid County Memorial Airport to attend a southeast Missouri Democratic minority coalition rally at 8 p.m.
Police said Lambert Airport was tracking the plane, which took off about 7 p.m. from Parks. It went off the radar screen at 7:33 p.m.
Jefferson County Sheriff Oliver "Glenn" Boyer said several witnesses reported a low-flying plane about 8 p.m. and a short time later heard what they thought was a plane crash and explosions.
Both Carnahan and his son, Randy, are licensed pilots. Randy Carnahan normally flies the campaign plane on political events.
KU Green Party will make St. Louis trip in protest of debate

Members of the KU Green Party will travel to St. Louis tomorrow to participate in a protest of the final presidential debates.
The protest will take place in a park near the Washington University campus, the campus on which the debate will be held. Nader is scheduled to speak to the crowd at 5 p.m.
The party is protesting the exclusion of Ralph Nader, the Green Party presidential candidate, from the debate.
"We were planning on going anyway," Hoskinson said. "But the Kansas City Green Party said they were renting a bus."
Members of the Kansas City Green Party organized the trip, said Sarah Hoskinson, KU Green Party president and Burton junior.
Hoskinson said she expected about 25 University of Kansas students and about 15 members of the Kansas City Green Party to attend.
There also will be a smaller protest on the campus of Washington University, but Dalyn Cook, a member of the KU Green

Party and Colorado Springs, Colo., sophomore, said the group would not attend.
"There's a lot of rules for it," Cook said. "There's going to be a lot of police and it's going to be a very tense situation."
Members of the KU College Republicans and KU Young Democrats said they would not go to St. Louis for the debate.
Joe Walberg, KU College Republican member and Omaha senior, said there would be a rally for Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush, but the group decided not to go.
"The Secret Service requires tickets and background checks," Walberg said. "It's for good reason. It's to protect the candidates, but it's not feasible for an organization like us."

ACLU officer to speak about racial profiling
Lisa Nathanson, legal director for the Kansas City branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, will speak about racial profiling at 7 tonight at the Kansas Room in the Kansas University.
Phi Beta Sigma fraternity is sponsoring the event.
Mike Conley, the fraternity's chapter adviser, said the issues had both national and local implications.
"I think racial profiling is an issue wherever you go," he said. "It's really hard to say, without being biased ... but I think that the practice as a whole is nationwide. It is a genuine issue here in Lawrence."
Conley said racial profiling involved investigating minorities based only on skin color. Nathanson's presentation will include background and roots of the problem as well as the frequency with which it occurs.
Conley said he was expecting a good turnout for the event and that all students should be interested.
Law enforcement officials stepping over boundaries in one area can lead to a more widespread abuse of power, he said.

Second suspect charged in pizza robbery case
A second man was arrested yesterday and booked in the Douglas County Jail on suspicion of helping in the robbery of a Gumby's Pizza delivery driver last week.
Michael Blanck was booked yesterday on charges of aiding and abetting in a robbery, a jail employee said.
Lawrence Police Det. M.T. Brown said Blanck was believed to have been one of two men who robbed a delivery driver Thursday as he was making a delivery in the 1400 block of Apple Lane.
The two men grabbed the driver by the throat, demanded money and pizza, and fled. The driver got the license plate number of the car, which aided police in their investigation.
The other man, David Ray Roubison, was arrested in conjunction with the robbery Thursday.
Blanck's bond was set at $5,000.

There are also 21 counts of breach of landlord-tenant laws pending against Lemesany, who is a co-owner of Parkway Terrace Apartments, a five-building complex at the 2300 block of Murphy Drive. The 21 counts are from earlier in the year.
Those suits alleged that Lemesyan drilled holes and viewed tenants from closets that connected to residents' bathroom and bedroom walls.
The suit also alleged that co-owner Mary Lemesy knew what her husband was doing.

Price of college degree continues upward trend
NEW YORK — The price of a college degree continues to rise faster than inflation, with tuition and fees at public four-year colleges up an average 4.4 percent and even more at private schools, the College Board reported yesterday.
its survey also found that loans provided a growing chunk of the extra money students need to pay for college degrees.
Average in-state tuition and fees at public four-year schools this fall is $3,510 per year — $148 more than last year, according to the survey. On campus room and board now averages $4,960, up 5.1 percent.
At private four-year colleges, tuition and fees average $16,332, up 5.2 percent from last year. Room and board on campus is now $6,209, a 4.2 percent increase.
Only public two-year schools, chiefly community colleges, stayed below the current inflation rate.
Chevron to buy Texaco in a $34 billion deal
SAN FRANCISCO — Chevron Corp. is buying Texas Inc. in a $34 billion deal that is likely to run into tougher-thusual antitrust resistance because of high gas prices lately.
The deal, announced yesterday, would create the world's fourth-largest oil company.
Analysts expect ChevronTexaco Corp. to win regulatory approval in six months to a year, but only after it sells several refineries and hundreds of gas stations, primarily in the West and the South.
Without such divestitures, the combined company would control 40 percent of the West Coast retail market and one-third of the region's refinery capacity.
Through most of this year, oil prices have been climbing steadily, driving gas prices to record highs in some parts of the country and increasing pressure to get things under control.
Spain owns wreckage appeals court rules
NORFOLK, Va. — Finders keepers
— the principle that keeps treasure hunters looking for riches at the bottom of the sea — has taken a broadside hit in court.
A federal appeals court ruled during the summer that Spain owns the wrecks of two Spanish warships that sank off the Virginia coast two centuries ago.
Some say that if the ruling is allowed to stand, it could put countless shipwrecks and perhaps billions in booty off limits.
The treasure hunter at the center of the case plans to appeal to the Supreme Court this week.
Traditionally, owners of sunken ships who didn't look for them within a given amount of time gave up their rights to the ships, said Ben Benson, the disappointed owner of Chincoteague-based Sea Hunt Inc. This ruling changes that by saying that a shipwreck has to be explicitly abandoned in order for someone else to salvage it.
Benson found what he believes are the wrecks of the two ships, and he obtained salvage rights from the state of Virginia in return for 25 percent of any profits.
In 1998, however, Spain claimed ownership of the vessels — the first such claims the country had made in hundreds of years. The U.S. government supported Spain, arguing that allowing the salvage of foreign warships would subject U.S. vessels to the same fate.
Million Family March converges on capital
WASHINGTON — Following the call of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, thousands were meeting at the capital yesterday for the first Million Family March on the National Mall.
The march comes on the fifth anniversary of the Million Man March, which was also spearheaded by Farrakhan, who has been accused of anti-white and anti-Semitic sentiments.
But unlike the 1995 event, which was aimed at black men, people of all faiths and races were invited to participate in the march by Farrakhan, who has been trying to make his image more mainstream of late.

Fraternity organizes camp for Homekoming week
By Jennifer Valdez
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Members of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity kicked off their Homecoming 2000 week yesterday by giving back to the Lawrence community.
The traditionally African-American fraternity held its first Kappa Alpha Psi Achievement Boys & Girls Basketball Camp for children in the Lawrence community.
J. R. Roland, fraternity member and camp coordinator, said the camp would become part of the annual Kappa week because it provided Lawrence children with a venue for achievement.
"It's a way to give more time back as students," said Roland, Grand View, Mo., senior. "It's important that the kids know that people are out there and willing to give their time to them. I hope that every kid leaves feeling better about themselves."
Members of Black Student Union also are volunteering at the camp, which also will be held today and tomorrow at the East Lawrence Recreation Center, 1245 E. 15th St.
Al Harris, a volunteer for the organization, said he hoped the camp would build stronger ties between the University of Kansas and the Lawrence communities.
"Hopefully, parents and other members of the community will see our efforts in giving back to the community," said Harris, Kansas City, Mo., senior.
Roland said approximately 40 grade-school children had registered to attend the camp, which runs from 5 to 6:30 p.m., but he said he wasn't sure how many actually would attend. He said that more participants were welcome and that they could get more information about the camp by calling the recreation center at 832-7950.
The camp was the first event of the week, which will end Saturday with a non-greek step show at Swarthout Auditorium in Murphy Hall at 7 p.m. and a Homecoming party in the Burge Union at 10 p.m.
Kappa Alpha Psi Homecoming events run during homecoming week at the University because it gives students more entertainment options. Roland said.
"It's a time to give students another venue to have fun during homecoming week." Roland said.

Courts' flaws call for ban on death penalty
The rising number of death row inmates who are being freed after being found illegally convicted and innocent has finally begun to put executioners in the unemployment line.
In February, citing his state's "shameful record of convicting innocent people and putting them on death row," Gov. George Ryan, an Illinois Republican who had always supported capital punishment, issued an order invoking the first state moratorium on executions. Illinois courts have found grounds to exonerate 13 death row inmates, more than the 12 they have executed since 1976.
A state commission in Illinois will review a record of injustice that has belatedly freed death row inmates for crimes they did not commit. Ryan called that a record "close to the ultimate nightmare, the state's taking of innocent life."
Movements for a capital punishment moratorium are afoot in 12 of the 38 states that apply the death penalty.
In January, the Louisiana Bar Association passed a resolution calling for a moratorium there "to ensure that no person is put to death without having their legal claims properly presented to the courts."

prison is the alternative — is only one force behind a slowly gathering movement to end the death penalty or at least to impose an execution moratorium until there is better citizen understanding that it is a brutal form of retribution, if not mindless vengeance, as currently applied.
The Supreme Court has agreed to rule soon on an effort to end executions in Florida's antique electric chair. It has required repeated high-voltage shocks to kill, sometimes shooting blue and orange flames from behind face masks and covering the smoldering victims with hemorrhaged blood. According to death penalty abolitionists, the continued use of Florida's flawed electric chair imposes such bloody disfigurement and torment that it amounts to "cruel and unusual punishment," prohibited by the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution.
Beyond inflicting death by high-voltage electricity, the full scope of other states' options ranges from electrocution to asphyxiation in a gas chamber to lethal injection, a hangman's noose or a firing squad's bullets. Since 1976, Delaware has hanged one convict, and Utah has executed two by firing squad. To make matters worse, in the 38 death-penalty states, 26 apply it to the mentally retarded and 23 to juvenile offenders.
The belated recognition that many Americans have been wrongfully sentenced to death has moved Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., to propose swearing reforms designed both to make trials fairer and to compensate the innocent victims of injustice.
The Innocence Protection Act would require states receiving federal grants to improve the DNA testing used in criminal investigations and prosecutions, to provide competent and well-paid defense counsel for defendants who cannot afford their own lawyers and to require that all juries in death penalty cases be informed that an alternative to execution is life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
But it remains to be seen what, if anything, will become of the Leahy bill. Until then, state governments should mandate a moratorium on all executions, for the taking of one life is one too many. As an editorial in the *Washington Post* put it, the states "should not have the authority to act as a killer has acted and to take a life for a life taken."
Given the inherent vagaries of the judicial system, it seems self-evident that the death penalty is an unjust and paradoxical practice. As statistics show, capital punishment does nothing to reduce violent crime, and it costs more money than lifetime prison sentences. The recent police scandals in Texas and California, in which more than 90 convictions have been overturned because of massive police corruption, are part and parcel of the need to mandate a federal moratorium on the death penalty.
In the meantime, death penalty advocates mete out an ironic form of justice in which we condemn murder by donning the executioner's mask and becoming murders ourselves.

Guitar amp restrictions muffle students' music
Department of Student Housing Handbook: amplifiers. Page 32 of the hand-book decrees, "Residents may not play amplified instruments in their rooms." At best, this rule is pointless and laugable. (And it really sucks if you play rock guitar.)
B between "Alcohol" and "Assault & Battery" resides a new addition to the growing list of taboos in the growing list of Student Housing
Upon initial examination of the statute, I wondered why the geniuses at student housing contrived their new law on the basis of amplification. I couldn't figure out why they banned electric guitars and keyboards when they could have banned bagpipes and accordions. Alternatively, why didn't they ban woodwinds? The statute could have been crafted to read, "Students may not play reed instruments in their rooms." Instead, clarinetists and oboists play on, while guitarists and keyboardists suffer new persecution.

Patrick Bollig

opinion@kansan.com
An acoustic drum set is not an "amplified instrument." Perhaps I will retrieve mine when I return home to wash laundry. Even though it's not an "amplified instrument," the folks at student housing would probably not allow me to play drums in my dorm room because the volume levels would disturb my fellow residents. Effectually, what sudent housing means is, "Residents may not play loud instruments in their rooms." However, because of the vague definition of "loud," the adjective "amplified" was arbitrarily substituted, resulting in a nonsensical and unfair law.
Under the new statute, a polka band could (theoretically) rehearse their set in a residence hall room, as long as they didn't plug in. However, I am directly forbidden to jam along with Metallica's "Master of Puppets" on my practice guitar amp. Any policy that explicitly prohibits my practice session and ostensibly allows the polka rehearsal is seriously flawed.
This leads to a ridiculously obvious conclusion: The no amp rule is unnecessary. Most students would agree that excessive noise is annoying, whether it comes from a guitar amp, a stereo or a woman's pharynx at 3 in the morning. Therefore, student housing simply ought to outlaw unreasonable noise, not amplified instruments. To this end, page 33 of the handbook outlines the noise statute: "Noise should be kept at a level that does not infringe on fellow residents' rights." Notice that this rule alone is sufficient to prevent loud rock guitarists from annoying everyone. The caveat is that reasonably quiet amplified musicians should be able to practice their art in the privacy of their own rooms.
Bollig is a Silver Lake sophomore in music.
Todd E. Sullivan, assistant professor of music at Indiana State University, wrote in 1998 that "the electric guitar provides a modern high-voltage equivalent to the violin." It is a versatile instrument, which is frequently played very loudly (and often poorly), yet nonetheless has the capacity to elicit passionate music. Neither the electric guitar nor its amplifier is the culprit of loud, disruptive noise. It is true that amplifiers can potentially disturb neighbors, but so can stereos and all sorts of other devices. Similarly, razor blades can facilitate smoking a line of cocaine, yet no one suggests their abolition. To encourage musicality and creativity in residence halls, student housing ought to reconsider its policy concerning amplified instruments.
Editorial
Network fee increase needs input
The University should consult students before upgrading its network.
As internet use on campus has doubled in the past year, now is the time to upgrade the campus network, and the University of Kansas appears to be taking the right path toward this goal.
Improvements are needed to reinforce the current, aging system. Several options have been proposed, from a simple upgrade of the existing system to the installation of an integrated telecommunications system.
Whichever solution is selected, it is likely it will hit students in their pocketbooks. The new fee likely would be incorporated into student housing payments, no matter whether students chose to use the network. Although this may seem unfair to some students, the university must fully adjust to the demands of the Information Age, which requires everyone to contribute.
The University can make the upgrade a more pleasant experience for students in several ways. The University seems to have rejected the idea of an integrated system that would raise rates from the current $90 to $447 per year — a good step because that is simply too much to ask a student without a computer to pay.
One option further in the future would combine phone, cable and Internet access into the same line. The line would feed directly into a computer and thus require any student simply wishing to make a phone call to have a computer. This is absurd. For now, though, the University's contract with Sunflower Cablevision prevents that option.
A more modest upgrade, raising rates from $90 to $120 per year, is probably the best solution. This option would still allow for multiple Ethernet connections in the same residence hall room, a feature desired by many students forced to switch off with their roommates. It would carry a one-time $37 fee for students living in halls that received the upgrade.
Network and Telecommunications Services should poll students to measure support for the proposed upgrades. If students are going to pay the price for the network upgrade, then they should have input in the final decision.

Office working to improve service
Student with disabilities offers tips
Continued from page 1A
weak, and her weight is low. Sometimes her throat tightens, and she turns blue from lack of oxygen.
"I can't really pinpoint when it happens," she said. "It just happens."So she carries medication and instructional cards in her book bag.She tells professors about her condition and advises them to call an ambulance if she is unresponsive to questions.
VanHyning said most professors understood the difficulties faced by students with disabilities. But the grade she gives the University of Kansas as a whole?
Ask and ye shall receive
Zimmer said students with disabilities needed to be proactive, requesting the appropriate type of help as soon as they were aware of a problem.
"It's my general understanding
that faculty members certainly understand what this is all about
... but it's never convenient," she said, adding that implementing services takes time. "Our system is really, I think, pretty capable if people are doing things in a timely way."
Capable means that the office arranges for students to have notetakers or extra time on exams. The office also is working on improving adaptive technology services and developing a Web page for students with disabilities.
"The law is to provide an equal chance for people with disabilities to compete with their peers." Zimmer said. "So we need to know what the disability is and how that creates an inequity."
VanHyning agreed that the office was not solely to blame. Instead, she said, the University as a whole needed to improve.
She said students with disabilities needed to receive maps detailing handicapped entrances.
She also suggested that the parking department keep a closer eye on people who abuse handcanned snots.
said an idea she hoped to implement would require students with disabilities to register with the parking department and receive a second car permit.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of the parking department,
VanHyning's final suggestion was more accessible entrances.
"You have to push this button," she said. "Then you have to wheel backwards before the door opens and catch yourself and then push yourself in before the door closes."
Zimmer said the University abided by architectural codes for handicapped entrances, but added that the University was an old campus and that improvements took time and money.
Lending a hand
More than anything,
VanHyning stressed the importance of help from able-bodied students.
"It only takes a minute of someone's time to lend that hand out and say, 'Can I help you up that hill?' VanHanning said.
Emily Ross, Columbia, S.C., sophomore, said she often felt insecure offering help.
"People will feel hesitancy to help someone because they feel it might be interpreted wrong," she said. "The person could think you
just feel sorry for them."
VanHyning said she understood that perspective but disagreed.
"The student in the handicapped position — in the wheelchair — is not really going to be offended, but if that comes up, I would say it was worth my while to say, 'Can I help you out,'" she said.
Jeremy Bennett, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said he also understood Ross' point. Bennett recently intermed at SuperTarget and led the American Disabilities Act training of employees. He said the internship made him more aware of the difficulties faced by disabled people.
"I would never hesitate to help someone if they needed help," he said, adding that offering help doesn't offend disabled people if they are approached in the right manner.
Ross — who loaned Magario notes for a class they took together — said it was important for students to overcome their uncertainty about offering help.
"Because they are handicapped, you can't do everything that a non-handicapped person can do," she said. "So it's only reasonable that people should help them."

Five cars burglarized at Templin Hall
Thieves smash windows, take stereos, CDs
By Rob Pazell
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Friday the 13th was unlucky for five Templin Hall residents whose cars were broken into and burglarized.
Templin parking lot. Thieves targeted stereos and CDs after smashing the cars' windows.
The KU Public Safety Office reported that five cars were burglarized between 6 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. Saturday in the east
"Windows broken out indicate a smash-and-grab situation," sald Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office. "They smash the window to gain access and take loose articles like CDs or stereo equipment."
Elisa Hudson, Pittsburg freshman and Templin resident, was one of the victims. She said she was surprised that her car, parked in the front row, was broken into in such a well-lit parking lot.
"You always hear about it happening to someone else," Hudson said. "You never think its going
to be you."
Hudson said her driver's-side window was smashed, and her detachable CD player face, which she keeps in the center console, was lying in the passenger seat. She credits her alarm for saving her stereo.
"If my alarm hadn't gone off, they would have probably taken it," Hudson said. "I learned not to keep my face in my car, but I usually don't keep anything in there just to be cautious."
Mallen said the Templin lot was well lit and near a major intersection. He also said officers periodically checked these lots to look for anything out of the ordinary.
But Mailen also said having loose items, such as CDs in the vehicle, could attract burglaries, regardless of the safety of the lot.
"Don't leave those items laying around," Mailen said. "Anything that is easily seen is prone to become targets for others."
Mailen said having serial numbers for stereo equipment and lists of CDs were instrumental in recovering the stolen items.
"Iitems are entered into a pawn log, then officers can check the local pawn shops," Mailen said. "It is very important that owners have their serial numbers and itemized lists of what is taken so we know what to look for."

SECURITY TIPS
- Secure all loose valuables. Don't leave items laying around.
- Remove detachable face plates,
or the stereo if it can be
detached, and put them in the
trunk or take them with you.
Use well-lit parking lots whenever possible.
Write down serial numbers, and keep a composite list of items in case they do get stolen.

Water Polo Club makes a splash

The Kansas Water Polo Club is proving that the sport is no longer just a game for California people who don't feel like surfing.
The 16-member co-educational team is comprised of players with extensive swimming backgrounds who are beginning to learn the fast-paced game of water polo.
there are six players in the water and one goalie on each team. Two points are awarded for goals beyond seven feet, while teams receive one point for goals within that range.
Loudis was on his high school swimming team and decided water polo might be an exciting challenge. He said the unique rules of the game enticed he and others into participating in the sport.
"Water polo is a lot like soccer and rugby in the water," said Barry Loudis, Springfield, Mo., sophomore.
The club competes in the Midwestern Conference, which includes Nebraska, Washington University-St. Louis, Minnesota and several schools in Illinois.
Anne Wolf, Wilmette, Ill., junior, has been with the club since her freshman year. Unlike many of the other club members, Wolf had experience in the sport prior to attending the University. She still strives to improve her skills.
"I enjoy learning the game," Wolff said. "And with more tournaments, our players who aren't as experienced will catch on to the game."
Jake Pueschel, Lawrence sophomore,
joined the team last year.
"Water polo is one of the most intense games around," Pueschel said. "It is also the most physically exhausting game I've ever played or seen."
Eric Borga, Springfield, Mo., sophomore, said the level of competition in the Midwest was gradually increasing.
"Judging from the tournament at Western
Illinois, water polo in the Midwest seems to be catching on," Borja said. "Players are deciding to play on club teams closer to home rather than Division I schools in California."
Borja said he was optimistic about the team but said it needed to increase practice time and commitment.
"This is a team of mostly former swimmers," Borja said. "This is a whole different sport."
Because the Jayhawks lost six seniors, Londis said he hoped to rebuild the team.

Jayhawks get day off from practice despite wishes of players

Most of the players wanted to, but Kansas football coach Terry Allen resisted the temptation to practice yesterday.
After Kansas' 38-17 win at Missouri on Saturday — its first Big 12 Conference road win under Allen — an informal poll suggested that last week's extra day of practice might have been the reason for Kansas' newfound success.
"I think it helped us get our focus back," said Roger Ross, junior wide receiver.
The Jayhawks typically get Mondays off from practice, but they practiced last Monday following a blistering loss to Kansas State. Allen's mantra became "drastic time call for drastic measures" after the loss, and he thought that the Jayhawks needed to put more effort and emotion into their practices.
Allen must have liked what he saw Saturday against Missouri, because yesterday was an off-day as usual. Allen also noted that practicing Monday was difficult because of all the class conflicts. Besides, the Jayhawks put on a clinic of their own Saturday against the Tigers.
"It's not necessarily the days of practice." Allen said, "more the approach."
of them coming on rushes. Quarterback Dylen Smith controlled the game with his arm, completing 10 of 30 passes for 234 yards and one touchdown pass.
Kansas had 219 yards rushing, its highest output this season. Running back David Winbush led with 182 all-purpose yards, 89
"It was a good game," Winbush said. "It
felt good to get out there and get all the problems we had in the past out of the way."
When Winbush scored Kansas' last touchdown on a 12-yard scamper late in the third quarter, it was arguably the most euphoric Kansas has been in a long time. After the score, the Jayhawks erupted on the sideline with applauses and howling. Winbush kneeled and prayed until some of his teammates tackled him in the end zone to celebrate.
"It was an awesome feeling," Winbush said.
Kansas will practice today and prepare for Saturday's 11:30 a.m. home game against Colorado at Memorial Stadium. The game, part of Homecoming weekend, will be Kansas' first on television this year. Allen said preparation would include more physical practices, with lots of hitting
After declining to single out individuals for good performance after last Saturday's embarrassment against K-State, Allen and his assistants were more than happy to make selections this time
Smith, offensive player of the game; Tim Bowers, defensive player of the game; Marc Owen, special teams player of the game for filling in for Bob Schmidt at long snapper; Ross and the punt return team, play of the game for Ross' 62-yard punt-return touchdown; Bowers, hit of the game for his hard hit on a kickoff return; and quarterback Kevin Long and defensive lineman Travis Watkins, scout teamers of the week.

Basketball recruit might help draw others to team
Bv Michael Rigg
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas Jayhawks are hopping their latest basketball recruit will institute the buddy system.
That is, with the commitment late Sunday of Portland, Ore., shooting guard Michael Lee, the Jayhawks are hoping his teammate, point guard Aaron Miles.
that also will follow suit and become a Jayhawk.
Lee committed after attending Late Night with Roy Williams on Friday night.
Lee is considered a "diamond in the rough" recruit, who was mostly being recruited by schools such as Santa Clara and Oregon.
Miles, meanwhile, is a consensus tqp-25 player who is considered one of the nation's top point guards and, is in deciding between Kansas and Arizona.
Miles made the trip to Lawrence with Lee and said he definitely was favoring Kansas. He added that the commitment of Lee would help him reach his decision.
"With him committing to Kansas, Kansas' chances are much higher now," Miles told Insiders Report. "When I first started out on my visit to Kansas, it was 50/50 for both Kansas and Arizona. But after my visit, I am leaning to Kansas."
Still, Miles said he would wait until he visited Arizona on Oct. 28 before he made a decision.
Joining Miles and Lee this past weekend were Josh Childress, a

6-foot-7 forward from Lakewood, Calif., and Jamal Sampson, a 6-foot-10 center from Senta Ana, Calif.
"It was sweet," Childress told All-Star Report of his visit. "I really like the coaching staff and the family feeling at Kansas. If you play for the Jayhawks, you are like a celebrity there. The only down side is 'the distance from home.'
Both Sampson and Childress said they enjoyed their visits to Kansas and were nearing their decisions as well.
Childress said he would choose between Kansas and Stanford. He also said Lee's commitment, coupled with the possible commitment of Miles and Sampson, could play a factor in his decision.
"I won't base my decision on what my friends do, but I could definitely see myself playing with those guys," he said.
As for Sampson, he told Pac-West Hoops that he enjoyed his trip to Kansas but that he might visit to UCLA before making a
decision.
Hayes visits Kentucky
Sampson also is considering Saint Louis and California-Berkeley.
Kansas recruit Chuck Hayes visited Kentucky on Friday for the Wildcats' version of Midnight Madness.
Hayes, a 6-foot-6 forward from Modesto, Calif., told All-Star Report that he enjoyed his visit to the Bluegrass State and now is nearing a decision.
Sports Columnist
Hayes said that he was considering Kentucky, Kansas, Texas-El Paso and Saint Louis, and that he might have a decision by the end of the week.

Win against Tigers could ignite streak, bowl chances
The only important history lesson you'll learn all week is this: It all starts with Missouri.
The football team has wasted its talent with silly mental errors, which have led to pathetic losses. I've been more embarrassed to mention that I watched some of its losses than I am to mention that I actually paid to see *Mafia!* while it still was in theaters.
In the 38-17 thrashing Saturday at Missouri, the Jayhawks finally played with the flair fans expected at the beginning of the season before the curl-up-and-die losses to Southern Methodist and Kansas State. The Jayhawks had a pulse in their 21-point win against Missouri.
That 21-point victory should put a frost on Buffalo fur as Colorado prepares for Kansas this week, and if history repeats itself, expect a Jayhawk victory against the Buffs Saturday.
After limping to a 2-5 start last year, Kansas shut out Missouri 21-0. Fans torw down the goal posts, and the 'Hawks went on to take Nebraska to the wire and finish their season strong. The reason was newfound confidence from a game against the Tigers.
The Jayhawks blasted Missouri again this year and suddenly have a swagger in their steps. Colorado looms ahead. Kansas stands 3-3 and sounds confident that it can topple another team.
"In our players' minds, we're 1-0." Allen said after the win.
If that isn't enough history for you, then here's another fun fact about Terry Allen's tenure at Kansas. Kansas has never lost a homecoming game under Allen.
Of course.
In addition to the spark-plug win against Missouri, history favors the 'Hawks against the Buffaloes. The last pairing of the two teams on homecoming came in 1998, when the Buffs boasted a No. 17 national ranking. Kansas belted them 33-17 on Fox Sports Net. This year's game is the 'Hawks' first televised game of the season and, fittingly, will be aired on Fox Sports Net.
Can the historical aspects of Kansas football really play a factor this weekend? Definitely.
Coincidence?
The reason the past can affect Saturday's Kansas vs. Colorado game is simple. During the middle of past seasons, Terry Allen and his team finally learned what they had to do to get the job done. They just ran out of time to make it to a bowl. Solve the problem early, and the 'Hawks could be bound for postseason play.
A loss this weekend would put a dagger through any postseason dreams for the Hawks, but a win against the Buffaloes would make their chances good. Texas Tech definitely is beatable, and Texas has been a question mark all season. Iowa State has surprised its critics, but if the Jayhawks have five wins heading into the last game of the season against the Cyclones, then I'd like their chances of winning.
Allen needs to maintain the vigorous intensity he instilled in his practices last week. He must keep chewing players' ears if they screw up. He must keep his players hitting one another harder and harder in practice.
Kansas has not been to a bowl since winning the 1995 Alhoa Bowl against UCLA, 51-30. A bowl bid still is far off but not out of the question — not yet, anyway. Kansas must win three of its last five games to be bowl eligible. Their opponents are Nebraska and Iowa State on the road, and Colorado, Texas Tech and Texas at home.
I like the Jayhawks' new belief in themselves, and like all Kansas fans, would love to see a win this weekend. If the Jayhawkes lose, their season is toast. But if they win, look to see Kansas make history by playing in the inaugural Galleryfurniture.com Bowl on Dec. 27 in Houston.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Rich Gannon lived well at his former team's expense.
The Oakland Raiders, who once suffered through an 11-game losing streak at Arrowhead Stadium, haven't lost there since signing Gannon — the loser of Kansas City's quarterback derby with Elvis Grbac — as a free agent in 1999.
In Sunday's 20-17 win against the Chiefs, in which the Raiders came back from a 17-7 deficit, Gannon was unflappable and all but unsackable. Often scrambling out of heavy pressure, he threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns and led the Raiders on a late drive that culminated in Sebastian Janikowski's 43-yard field goal with 25 seconds left.
The victory lifted the Raiders to 5-1, giving them a commanding lead in the AFC West against Kansas City (3-3), which had won three in a row.
"Rich Gannon was brilliant," said Raiders coach Jon Gruden. "This is the best game that he has played since I have been with him."
The Raiders started the winning drive at their 11 on the last play before the 2-minute warning. Gannon completed five straight passes for 49 yards and carried
twice for another 15 yards to set up Janikowski's winning kick.
"I moved around a little bit, to our benefit, obviously," said Gannon, who was 28-for-33 and also run eight times for 38 yards. "They are a great defensive team, but I was able to move around, find some lanes and get some yards."
Gannon's biggest gamble came on the drive that tied the score at 17 in the fourth quarter.
On fourth-and-1 from the Kansas City 35, Gannon scrambled and hit Tim Brown for 32 yards to the 3. After a false-start penalty, Tyrone Wheatley caught Gannon's 7-yard pass in the end zone with 9:25 left, capping an 80-yard drive that took more than eight minutes.
"I thought we had him sacked, and then he throws up a duck that Tim Brown makes a great play on," said Chiefs linebacker Donnie Edwards. "That's what Rich does. He's able to go out there and make something out of nothing."
Grac threw for more yards — 288 — than Gannon and threw first-half touchdown passes of 27 yards to Tony Gonzalez and 15 yards to Tony Richardson. But a hotly contested call after one of his completions killed Kansas City's best chance to break a 17-all tie midway through the fourth quarter.
Rookie wide receiver Sylvester Morris took a pass and lost the ball
at almost the same instant his knee hit the ground. The ball was recovered by Charles Woodson on the Oakland 12 with 7:09 left, and referee Tony Corrente upheld the fumble call after the Chiefs' challenge.
"I felt like I was down," Morris said. "I felt my knee had touched. Woodson made a great effort at getting the ball, but I felt I was down, and the referees felt otherwise. Nothing I can do about it."
Janikowski, a rookie, had no history with the Chiefs in the teams' bitter AFC West rivalry. Still, the winning kick provided a much needed shot of redemption.
Before hitting a 47-yarder to slice Kansas City's lead to 17-10 five minutes into the third quarter, the rookie first-round pick was 0-for-2 for the game and 0-for-6 from beyond the 40. He was wide left on attempts from 47 and 59 yards in the first half on Sunday.
"The media was putting a lot of pressure on me," he said. "I needed to get off by myself and figure out what I was doing wrong. I figured it out. I was kicking on the snap. That's why I was missing."
Chiefs kicker Todd Peterson hit a 27-yard field goal in the second quarter, but missed from 44 yards in the first.
"The bottom line is that we needed it and it was a miss." Peterson said. "That's why we lost by three points."

Civil Engagement in 21st Century
Many see the current college climate as unstable. These
young people need to be equipped with their services to help
communities than any of their predecessors, yet, their levels of participation
the formal processes, civil engagement, as are now
extreme low. Do these proper forms of civic engagement matter or are
outmaded, having been overtaken by the Internet's global village, on
a one hand, and grass roots volunteerism, on the internet's lecture aims
continuing our mission of creating a community.

Movie-like WWII documentary hits big screen
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Mark Jonathan Harris, already the winner of two Academy Awards for documentaries, may have come up with that rarest of the rare: a documentary that Americans might actually see in theaters.
By feature-film standards, Into the Arms of Strangers: Stories of the Kindertransport has performed modestly. The documentary has opened in nine U.S. and Canadian cities in the past few weeks.
But documentaries and feature films inhabit parallel universes, and just playing in theaters is a big deal for a documentary.
Harris' film — about the children who fled Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia without their parents in the months before World War II — may be benefiting from a wave of popular acceptance for documentaries, helped by the profusion of cable channels on television.
"We are in the midst of a breakout time for documentaries," said Amitai Adler of the Los Angeles-based International Documentary Association. "Ten years ago there were only two to three cable channels, and now they cannot buy documentaries fast enough."
Adler estimated that more than 1,000 documentaries a year are made for television. An additional 30 to 40 documentaries a year appear in movie theaters before being shown on television, thus meeting the requirement for Oscar eligibility. Adler said.
Harris says he deliberately set out to give Into the Arms of Strangers the story-telling power of a commercial film, it focuses not on the Holocaust, but on the universal pain of parents and children separated by war.
"Documentaries are often full of good information, but they go down like spinach and castor oil: good for you, but hard to swallow." Harris said during a break in a week of interviews.
Although this is a documentary, it's structured in the way a film is structured," he said. "You don't know who is going to meet their parents again."

Heat star battles kidney ailment
The Associated Press
MIAMI — A common but serious kidney ailment will keep Alonzo Mourning sidelined for the entire season, depriving the Miami Heat of their biggest star and the key to their quest for an NBA title.
Doctors said Monday that the illness, first spotted just after Mourning helped the U.S. team to the basketball gold medal earlier this month, was focal glomerulosclerosis, which leads to kidney failure in about half the cases.
They said there were no immediate plans for a kidney transplant or dialysis.
"I feel great right now. We've pretty much got a hold on it, the whole situation right now." Mourning said at a news conference in which he discussed his aliment publicly for the first time. "The main objective is to get me healthy so I can live my life normally, so I can see my babies grow up, and so I can enjoy my family.
"And, at the same time, possibly do the things that I know and love
— and that's the game of basketball. But the key right now is to get me healthy."
MIAMI HEAT
Pat Rilev. the Heat coach who
spent the offseason signing free agents and redesigning the team to complement Mourning's talents, said his star center was following the proper course.
"Alonzo Mourning will not be playing professional basketball this season, and we're totally convinced that the only thing that should be on his mind is getting healthy." Riley said.
The 30-year-old center made his first public appearance since Oct. 3, when he attended the team's media day. Training camp began without him the following day, and he has not practiced because of his condition, which was discovered during a routine physical two weeks ago.
Dr. Gerald Appel, of Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York, said the disease causes the kidneys to leak protein into a person's urine. Without treatment, filters in the kidneys eventually become scarred, cease to function and a transplant is needed.
The origin of Mourning's condition is unknown. Some forms of the disease may be more common in African-Americans, but the statistics aren't clear, said Columbia kidney specialist Dr. Leonard Stern.
Mourning will be placed on a six-month treatment trial. He will take medication in hope of reducing the swelling in his lower body, stopping the kidneys from leaking proteins and controlling his blood pressure and cholesterol levels. He also will follow a strict low-sodium diet.
The drugs cause side effects, Riley said, which would make strenuous exercise unsafe.
"He wants to play, but he can't." Rilev said. "He's not that sturid."
But even with treatment, about 50 percent of cases develop chronic renal failure, Appel said. The kidney disease used to be the fourth-largest cause of death in the United States.
He was expected to lead a revamped Miami team widely considered to be the favorite to win the Eastern Conference. Without Mourning, the outlook would change drastically.
Mourning finished third in voting for the NBA's Most Valuable Player last season, when he averaged 21.1 points, 9.5 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game. He has missed only seven games the past two seasons.
Soccer league seeking larger audience
The Associated Press
the future."
WASHINGTON — Each year, Major League Soccer tinkers with its product, trying to make itself more popular. Each year, the result has been the same: attendance down slightly, profits nowhere to be seen.
After five years, the league is pretty much where it began. There's a solid corps of fans and several committed investors, but they don't seem to be growing. An impressive neutral-site crowd of 39,159 watched Kansas City's 1-0 victory over Chicago in the championship game, for most of the United States the event was at best a footnote on an NFL Sunday.
"I am disappointed that our attendance did not increase," said commissioner Don Garber, citing the small drop in the leaguewide average from 14,282 to 13,756. "This is a major focus for us, and we must show increased numbers in
After trying a few gimmicks to Americanize the sport, this was a back-to-basics year for MLS. Shootouts were eliminated; a game could actually end in a tie. The official time was kept on the field and not on the scoreboard, the way it's done by the rest of the world.
Aging European superstars Lothar Mattheae and Hristo Stoitchkov joined the league, while younger and younger American players were recruited through the Project 40 rule, which offers incentives for postponing college. Bobby Convey became a regular starter for D.C. United at 16.
"The level of play has been tremendous this season," said Kansas City city goalkeeper Tony Meola, who won the MVP awards for both the regular season and the MLS Cup title game. "If we bring in half the players next year that we did this year, the league's going to be unbelievable. If we continue
Next year, there will be more tinkering. The schedule will be reduced from 32 to 28 games, and this year's confusing playoff format might get an overhaul. More games will be on Saturdays, when attendance is best, and teams will have more time to schedule games in various international tournaments.
Such changes come too late for ABC, which is dropping four games from its six-game MLS package because of poor ratings. Ratings on ESPN were unchanged from 1999.
There is good news. The league has been able to retain its major sponsors and attract new ones. And while MLS hasn't attracted any new investors in recent years, the ones it has are deep-pocketed and promise to stay for the long haul, even though the league has lost a reported $100 million since its inception.
to do that, this will one day be the place everyone wants to play."

With the presidential election just three weeks away, and the race too close-to-call, the last presidential debate once again yielded mixed student reaction.
About 500 students filled the Kansas Union ballroom to watch the final debate last night and to discuss the issues presented. Debate Watch, a national project based at the University that studies nationwide voter reaction to the debates, sponsored the event.
Shawna Smith, an assistant to Debate Watch director Diana Carlin, said the out was about.
what the group had expected.
"We're probably hosting the largest debate watch in the country," said Smith, Hays junior.
More information
Last night's debate targeted undecided voters.
See page 8B
Danielle Willey, Junction City sophomore, said she didn't know much about politics, but she thought Al Gore, the Democratic presidential candidate, did better than his Republican counterpart, George W. Bush.
"He tried to get Bush to admit things, but Bush talked around the issues," Willey said. "Gore made his points more clear."
Willey said that although no one issue was the most important to her, education was a major priority.
"Gore wants more teachers," she said. "I've had classes with hundreds of students, and I didn't feel part of the class. We'd all get better learning experiences if we had more one-on-
one teaching."
Heather Fuqua, Olathe freshman, said she had to go to the debates for an English class and had no opinion beforehand. After the debate, she said she liked Bush better than Gore.
"Gore was defensive on the issues," she said. "Bush was really calm about waiting his turn to answer. Gore would jump up and say Bush was wrong."
Fuqua added that health care was the most important issue to her because of her family
background.
"My family didn't have health care until the state paid for it," she said. "If families go without health care, it's not a good situation."
Ray Miller, Wichita sophomore, said he thought this debate was similar to the previous two debates in that neither candidate wanted to answer the questions.
He also thought Gore was too liberal with his spending plans.
"It seems like Gore is spending money in every one of his solutions," Miller said.
"He's like a teenage girl who found her dad's credit card."

Crime worries Orchard Corners residents
Violence, burglaries plague complex some students say
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
One of the clippings is about the two amps and subwoofers that were stolen from Lakin's car last week.
Chris Lakin and his roommates have a bulletin board to hang all the newspaper clippings about the criminal activity this year at Orchard Corners apartment complex.
Lakin, Lake Quivira sophomore, only has lived at the complex since August, but he said he would not live there again next year.
He said he chose to live in the Orchard Corners apartments at 15th Street and Kasold Drive because he heard it was a nice
place to live, it was on the bus route, and there were parties.
“It’s a good place to live during the week, but on most weekends it’s a big party scene, and it becomes trashy.” Lakin said.
Jared Langford, Tecumseh sophomore, attended an Aug. 20 party at the complex where shots were fired during a fight in the parking lot. Langford said two uninvited men and two uninvited women showed up at the party to beat up a woman who was there. A fight began between the uninvited guests and about 20 people at the party. One of the uninvited men fired shots into the air, trying to protect his friend.
The people who held the party did not know the four people who showed up, Langford said.
Langford said this was not the first time problems had started at an Orchard Corners party. Langford has gone to about 15 to 20 parties at the complex and said things had gotten out of control
during, at least half of them especially on weekends.
"It's usually pretty well known that Orchard Corners' parties get pretty wild," Langford said.
two people were stabbed in the parking lot during a party on Oct. 1, Lawrence police said. Kenneth Berry, an 18-year-old Johnson County Community College student, was stabbed in his lower back.
Berry said he and his friends had been in the parking lot getting ready to leave when six men showed up and began making gestures and comments at him and three other people.
"two of them jumped my friend," Berry said. "I pulled them off, and that's when I got stabbed."
Berry said no one at the party knew who the six were.
Bobbie Wintle, Mastercraft manager, said the complex management was aware of the situations that occurred.

place," Wintle said. "Unfortunately, we have had situations that are nonrelated to our residents. We put out fliers to notify our residents or put it in our newsletter to make them aware of
the situation and tell them things they can do to protect themselves."
Wintle said management had done some internal checks that

Veterinarians treat drunken, drugged-out pets
Special to the Kansan
By Chrissy Bowers
University of Kansas students may be responsible drinkers, but what about their pets? Yes, their pets.
Local veterinarians say they see drunk dogs more often than they would like — and those pets often belong to students.
"We see situations where college kids feed beer to their animals, mostly dogs, and will get them drunk," said Kristi J. Bradley, a yet at Free State Veterinary Hospital.
She said that too much booze could lead to alcohol poisoning and possibly death. But there are long-term effects as well.
Lawrence veterinarians say they see an abnormally high number of pets who are under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Drugs and alcohol have the same effects on animals as humans. Photo illustration by Christina Neff/KANSAN
"They become wobbly and weird," Bradley said.
"I don't know that dogs can become alcoholics, but they do have the potential for liver or kidney damage," she said.
The short-term effects are similar to those experienced by humans. Bradley said.
Alcohol isn't the only source of animal inebriation that veterinarians witness.
"We do see dogs that eat marijuana," said William Bayouth, a veterinarian at Animal Hospital of Lawrence.
The common scenario is where the owner leaves out a stash and the dog eats it, Bradley said.
She said the reactions varied from hyperactive pets to nearly comatose pets.
H. D. Lewis of the Lewis Veterinary Clinic said that in the cases he had seen, "The dogs are basically stoned."
Again, there are long-term effects with animals that consume marijuana, including damage to the nervous system, liver and pancreas, as well as death if they eat
enough, the vets said.
The cases get stranger.

Robert Warren, Overland Park junior,
recounted the days of living with his ex-
"My roommate would blow marijuana smoke into the cat's ears everyday," he said. "The cat would become very docile at first and then get an ungally'amount of energy."
Warren said he didn't know his roommate's motivation.
rhe seemed to think the cat liked it," he said. One dog took on more than he could handle. Bradley said.
"I had a Chihuahua who had had multiple drugs, including cocaine," Bradley said. "He was agitated and began having seizures. His respiration was badly affected."
The owners had to put the dog to sleep.
The owner's had to put the dogs out. But by far the worst cases any local veterinarian had witnessed were with the weight-loss drug Metabolife. People have accidentally left out bottles of the drug and dogs have eaten the pills. Metabolife increases animals' blood pressure, causes immediate seizures, and depending on the number of pills consumed, can kill a pet, Bradley said.
she said the reactions were so intense and rapid that it was almost impossible to save the animals.
Perspective pet-adopters might worry whether their new animal has been abused with drugs. Midge Grinstead, the Lawrence Humane Society's executive director, said that the society had no way of performing drug tests.

Planning, sleep help students to minimize midterm stress
By Meghan Bainum
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
It's that time of year again — midterm time — and a lot KU students, men and women alike, find themselves suffering from PMS — Pre-Midterm Stress.
Even though Carver has learned ways to better handle the stress — like going to class everyday — he said he wasn't quite sure how he did on his midterms.
Mike Carver, Chicago sophomore, said he could tell when his stress started because of a feeling he got in the pit of his stomach.
But, with the exception of 'un in
inout', others aren't as lucky.
"You never really know how you did until you get it back," he said.
"Right now, I'm procrastinating hardcore," she said. "I'm spending a lot of time outdoors and napping."
Shik said that she had a sure fire way to get everything done — not sleeping.
Sarah Shik, Overland Park senior, has two midterms and two papers to turn in within the next week. Still, she hasn't started working on anything.
"At this point, if I don't do it, I'm
going to fail,
she said. "You
get to the end
of the line, and
nothing is
left."
Shik is not the only student suffering from PMS. The libraries are packed late into the night, and many students are stumbling around campus with glazed eyes and bewildered expressions.
Avoid all-nighters
STAYING HEALTHY
Keep sleeping and eating schedules as regular as possible
How to stay healthy during midwives:
■ Plan ahead.
Avoid excessive use of coffeeine
When finished with finals, don't go out and party. Take time to catch up on sleep.
Be safe on camp at night. Use Saferide, or walk with friends.
Source: Randall Rock, Watkins' chief of staff
stressed-out and sleep-deprived might be compromising more than their 8 hours of rest — they might be compromising their health.
"Some amount of stress or deadlines can be motivational and give us the strength and endurance we need to finish projects or prioritize," Rock said. "But in excess, stress can compromise efficiency and may take a physical toll."
Rock said that prolonged stress could make the immune system less efficient, and therefore, make students more susceptible to sickness.
Rock also said that art and architecture students experienced a special midterm danger.
"Late nights on projects and Exact-o knives are a combination that occasionally result in injury," he said. "It potentially puts the project at risk of contamination as well."
Rock said that the best way to get through midterms with all fingers attached, as well as the least amount of stress, was to plan ahead, eat right, sleep well and make sure to keep caffeine consumption down to a minimum.
Some students, such as Brandon Schminke, Dodge City sophomore, have conquered midterm stress problems by keeping up in all of his classes.
"The sooner I get it done, the easier it'll be," he said. "I won't get as stressed, so I just kind of sit down and make myself do it."
Students don't get much of a break before finals. That, said Jenny Griffiths, Leawood junior, is something she doesn't want to think about.
"I have to get over the whole midterm stress thing before thinking about finals," she said.

Students to prepare dinner for the elderly
Students involved with the Intergenerational Program will put on a special dinner this weekend at Brandon Woods Retirement Community.
Members will decorate, help prepare a dinner and assist Brandon Woods residents in looking their best by doing hair, make-up and nails.
Intergenerational Programs is a volunteer program through the Center for Community Outreach. About 40 KU students are involved.
Christina Poell, co-coordinator of the program, said the group's goal was to get KU students involved.
Volunteers go to different retirement communities around Lawrence and work with the elderly. Activities include delivering meals, light housekeeping, taking residents to the grocery store or visiting with them. The program also puts on events such as movie nights and bingo for the residents. Volunteers can work one-on-one or in groups.
"We want to decrease the generational gap between students and the elderly," she said.
This year, the program is putting together a cookbook to raise money. It is a year-long project of compiling recipes from college students and the elderly.
"It will be interesting to see the differences in the recipes of the two generations," Poell said.

Settlement reached in L.A. transit strike
LOS ANGELES — Negotiators reached a settlement yesterday in the month-long transit strike that has stranded nearly a half-million bus and subway riders and hit Los Angeles' working poor particularly hard.
The settlement, which was to be presented to the union rank-and-file for ratification yesterday evening, could have buses rolling today and subways back in service tomorrow.
The 4,300 bus drivers and rail open ators represented by the United Transportation Union walked out Sept. 16 against the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
The breakthrough came after an allnight bargaining session assisted by the Rev. Jesse Jackson.
The walkout sent 450,000 dailyiders scrambling to get to work, school, doctors' appointments and grocery stores. People drove, bicycled, got rides from friends or took advantage of illegal rides offered by entrepreneurs.
Ford recalls Focus cars with possible defects
DEARBORN, Mich. — Ford Motor Co. said yesterday that it was voluntarily recalling more than 350,000 of its popular Focus subcompact cars with at least one of three suspected defects.
There have been no reported accidents resulting from any problems with the vehicles' suspect parts; cruise control cables, rear wheel and brake drum assemblies or A-pillar interior trim. Ford said.
The recall involves a total of 351,102 model-year 2000 Focus cars, whose owners are being asked to upgrade the vehicles to meet new federal standards for protecting passengers against head injuries.

Firestone to lay off 450 workers after sales lag
NASHWILLE, Tenn. — Bridgestone/
Firestone Inc. said yesterday it would lay off 450 workers at its Decatur,
The company said decreased sales and high inventory dictated the move.
In August, Bridgestone/Firestone recalled 6.5 million ATX, ATX II and Wilderness AT tires, many of them standard equipment on the Ford Explorer. The tires are under investigation in connection with at least 119 deaths and 500 injuries in the United States.
"Production of replacement tires related to our safety recall will continue uninterrupted," said John Lampe, chairman and chief executive of the Nashville-based company.
The layoffs at Decatur — where many of the recalled tires were made — affect about one-fourth of the workforce at the plant.
All three plants will scale back production for two weeks, then shut down for two weeks during the Christmas holidays, with full production resuming in January, the tiremaker said.
Clinton carries dialog between Barak, Arafat
WORLD
SHARM EL-SHEIK, Egypt — President Clinton carried his drive for an accord to end Middle East violence into a second day, shuttling between Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat in an atmosphere undermined by mutual mistrust.
Then, after a few hours of sleep,
Clinton conferred with the host,
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak for
20 minutes. An Egyptian official, Nahil
Osman, said the seven leaders participating in the summit would gather together again late yesterday. The discussions, lasting more than 1.4 hours Monday and into yesterday, prompted Clinton to extend his stay rather than departing on Monday night as planned.
NATO troops practice at Puerto Rico base
BOARD THE USS NASSAU — Guns boomed off the coast of a disputed Navy training ground in Puerto Rico and tens of thousands of troops prepared for a massive amphibious landing as NATO began its biggest exercise there in four years.
The monumental show of force on Monday by 50 vessels, 31,000 U.S. soldiers and an undisclosed number of other Western troops comes despite fierce protests during the past year against military exercises on the island, called Vieques.
The forces are simulating a NATO-led U.N. peacekeeping mission, Navy spokesman John Kirby said, Yesterday, thousands of troops were to "invade" a beach on the island's eastern end, the Naw said.

Obessive-compulsive disorder can affect students differently
Bv Melissa Davis
Kansan staff writer
When he was 5, Andy Gassaway would wash his hands 25 times before touching his favorite books or toys.
In high school, he checked his alarm clock at least 10 times a night and spent hours contemplating math concepts.
Even though Gassaway was a bright student, his concentration was taking a beating. His parents told him to "knock it off," but he couldn't.
Doctors determined that Gassaway, Neodesha junior, had obsessive compulsive disorder. He is not alone.
John Wade, counselor at Counseling and Psychological Services, said that OCD was the fourth most common psychiatric disorder.
But David Holmes, professor of psychology, said explaining obsessive-compulsive disorders could be tricky because the symptoms were often eccentric.
Amy Ellis, Kansas City, Kan, sophomore, once had OCD and now said her rituals were bizarre.
"I would wear the same shirt everyday or at least
carry it with me — everywhere," she said. "I was afraid if didn't carry it something bad would happen to me."
Ellis said she was also afraid of odd numbers.
"If I listened to a CD, I would have to listen to each song twice, because one was an odd number," she said.
But Ellis didn't think she had a problem. She thought she was just superstitious — until a counselor accidentally diagnosed the disorder.
"I went to a counselor because I was doing bad in school, and I took a personality test when I was there, and they told me I had OCD," she said.
Ellis was given Zoloft, an antidepressant, and since then has had no occurrences of the disorder. She even put the shirt away.
"I told myself I just needed to get a grip," she said. Holmes said it was important to distinguish between obsession and compulsion.
A compulsion is a behavior that an individual feels driven to perform again and again, whereas an obsession involves persistent ideas, thoughts, images or impulses individuals could not get out of their head.
rhotomes said people possess different obsessions.
"Common obsessions include fear of contamina

tion or constant wondering whether you have hurt an individual." Holmes said.
Wade said the difference between quirky superstitious personality traits and OCD was whether an obsession or compulsion significantly interfered with a person's life.
Holmes said there were many different causes for the disorder. He said contributing factors could be low serotonin levels, which is a neurotransmitter in the brain, brain damage or inappropriate learning.
Holmes said there were two types of treatment. One exposes people with the disorder to their ritual or situation, but prevented them from doing it, or antidepressant medications.
After Holmes lectures on the disorder, students often think they have some symptoms.
"Every year when I lecture on OCD, my office is flooded with people weeks after," he said.

Audience claims racial profiling
By Leita Schultes
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
About 40 students said they had been stopped by police based on the color of their skin in a discussion about racial profiling last night at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
The students went to the Union expecting to hear a representative from the American Civil Liberties Union speak on the issue. But when the speaker failed to show, the event turned into a town meeting — with most of the audience members identifying themselves as victims of racial profiling.
Andre McCloyn-Fortune, president of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, which sponsored the event, said he was stopped almost monthly in both Lawrence and Kansas City because he was an African American.
One time, McCloyn-Fortune said, he was questioned for entering his own house, which is in a primarily white neighborhood. His car was parked behind his house, but he forgot something and ran in the front door. The officer stopped him and said he looked suspicious.
suspended. "And pretty much there's nothing you can do because anything is reasonable cause," said the Kansas City, Kan., senior.
"Basically you just have to sit there and take what they say." he said.
what they say, he said.
Law students who attended the town meeting disagreed. They said students did not have to answer questions or consent to car searches.
"You also do not have to cooperate with the police like you think you do," said Chris Howard, a third-year law student and Lawrence resident. "If he has an idea that you know something about the law, he will back off."
Most students agreed that racial profiling was not something done just by white police officers. African Americans do it too, said Leigh Ann Lawrie, Kansas City, Kan., senior.
They just kind of fall into the same frame of
mind," she said. "I do know that Black cops do it."
Students said they understood that most police officers were "good cops" trying to do their jobs. They also agreed that perceptions were influenced by the media.
Look at the television show Cops, one audience member said.
"When they're in Kansas City, you think every minority is doing something wrong." he added
"Prosecute them as coldly as they are willing to prosecute us." Dale McCormick, Lawrence resident, said of prosecuting police officers. "A few successful lawsuits for this kind of thing will have more effect than anything else you can do."
The evening ended with students discussing how to solve the problem. Most students said ramifications for police officers needed to be tougher in Kansas.

Organic food at root of grocery competition
By Courtney Smith Special to the Kansan
Organic grocery competition is heating up in Lawrence.
Food store chains have added aisles of organic food to their stores and the Community Mercantile, Lawrence's only completely health food grocer, is moving to bigger quarters.
The Merc, located at Ninth and Mississippi streets, will relocate to the corner of Ninth and Iowa streets next April. The Merc has survived in Lawrence for 26 years.
Jeannie Wells, general manager at the Merc, said there was no space left to expand. The store needs more room for parking, along with fresh meats and seafood.
"Most people say 10 parking spaces for every $1 million you make in sales," Wells said. "We are at $4.5 million. We simply need more room."
The new location in the former Alvin's IGA building in the Hillcrest shopping center will mean more space and more jobs.
right now we have 80 employees." Wells said. "Half of them are part-time, and the others are full-time employees. When we move to the new store, we will probably have over 100 employees."
Two Hy-Vee stores, 3504 Clinton Parkway and the new store at 4000 W. Sixth St., have jumped into the organic food competition in Lawrence.
The new store location houses an organic store within a store. More than 3,000 organic products line the aisles in one corner of the mega grocery.
Chain grocers are adding organic products to their aisles, too.
Kristen Fellows Walker, health market manager at Hy-Vee, said the demand for organic foods was on the rise.
"Most people think that organic foods are only purchased by the hippie type of person," she said. "I have

all different types of people in my aisles. I have mothers wanting to feed their kids nutritious food to elderly people who want to be in control of their health, instead of it being in control of them."
The Merc's research shows the same trend.
Nancy O'Connor, nutrition educator at the Merc, said the store's own marketing surveys showed that the Merc held the upper hand in the organic food industry in Lawrence.
"Our survey shows that 20 percent of our customers come from outside the Lawrence area," she said. "People drive from Topeka, Kansas City and other outlying farm towns to buy our foods."
Chad Wells, assistant grocery manager at Super Target, 3201 Iowa St., said the organic food craze was not all that new to him. His store has offered organic food since it opened five years ago, he said, and the demand has increased in the past few years.
"We get a lot of people who are generally very specific with regards to organic foods. They seem to know exactly what they want when they come in," Wells said. "We have seen more KU-aged people interested especially in the vegetarian areas, meatless and vegan foods."
O'Connor said there was no doubt that Lawrence's college-town atmosphere had contributed to the shift toward organic foods.
"I think the influence of the University can only help our town," she said. "Lawrence is an unusual community that supports its businesses, and that can only help the organic food industry continue to expand."

Editorial board: University should provide free forum for speech
Erasing sidewalk chalk stifles free expression
National Coming Out Day became Go Back In Day last week when sidewalk chalk messages were erased from campus.
The University deemed offensive some of the chalk comments written by a few members of Queers and Allies. In response, KU mandated that the writing be erased.
This suppression of speech was justified by the subjective standard of profanity. The messages written on campus last Wednesday were not profane and should be protected as free speech.
The standard by which we judge profanity or obscenity is whether an average person, using community standards, finds a message prurient. Our campus is a diverse community including straight and queer people, and every one's views should be included in that standard.
In addition, all comments were erased instead of just the "offensive" writings, thus eliminating all Queens and Allies sidewalk speech.
The queer community has a freedom of speech that is as important as any other group. They've used their speech to assert their sexuality and create a world where they are accepted, not misunderstood.
Some might say people who wrote the comments made things worse by being so provocative.
Despite the flavor of the messages, they have a significant social message. Homosexuals are constantly surrounded with heterosexual innuendo that is almost perceived as invisible.
Commercial messages that use straight sexuality are everywhere on our campus and in society. It's fair to say that Coed Naked and Big Johnson tee shirts are just as provocative to homosexuals as the chalk scribbled "Pussy Power" to heterosexuals.
Selectively enforcing the standard of obscenity unfairly suppresses speech in a hostile way. Facilities Operations did not use an objective standard to determine the profanity of those homosexual messages.
They washed them all away after a knee-jerk reaction to their content. The worst part is they erased some purely informational messages that contained no provocative sexual content.
It appears hostile to queers to erase their self-expressive messages on National Coming Out Day. In the end, it makes the University of Kansas seem like an unfriendly environment for diverse people.
To correct this situation, the University and Facilities Operations should formally apologize to KU Queers and Allies.
Not only did they indiscriminately eliminate all of the Queers and Allies messages, but they also infringed upon the First Amendment rights of every student at the University.
Brett Watson for the editorial board
Editorial board: University was correct in erasing messages.
Profane messages don't belong in public view
Many sensitive students, faculty and visit ing grade schoolers were offended by the explicit. homosexual propaganda
1V1 the grade schoolers were offended by the explicit, homosexual propaganda which covered the sidewalks of the University of Kansas last Wednesday.
n spite of apparent First Amendment freedom of speech restrictions, the University should not condone profane, vulgar and overtly sexually offensive messages on campus.
The University appropriately and quickly washed away messages such as "Don't eat cow, eat pussy," but also accidentally washed many legitimate announcements about National Coming Out Day. I
In America, it has ironically become politically correct to tolerate anything one says, since it is their opinion.
Although "It's a lot sweater when both have a peter" expresses the opinion of some Queers and
Allies, the sexually vulgar meaning was far from what our country's founders considered a freedom when they adopted the Bill of Rights.
In the majority of people's minds, it does not seem that the University is becoming too powerful when it washes away the profane, vulgar language on our sidewalks.
Lesbian propaganda like "Pussy Power" can be considered slander by the heterosexual community. "Spread the word, spread your legs," would have been considered blasphemous by our country's founders.
In the past, the government more conservatively protected its citizens from explicitly offensive and profane language: "The corruption of the public mind, in general, and debauching the manners of youth, in particular, by lewd and obscene pictures exhibited to view, must necessarily be attended with the most injurious consequences" (Commonwealth v. Sharplev 1815).
GAY AND
Proud! KU will
NOT Ignore
Unfortunately, our new liberal approach to the "freedom of speech" clause has gradually led to the demoralization of society. The parallel is real. The University should not condone such lewd, profane dogma that most people don't want to see. To prevent any further censorship controversies, KU should develop a speech code prohibiting hateful, violent and overtly profane messages
Specific messages from last Wednesday should serve as examples of profanity and guide us against similar speech. Such guidelines need to be included in the Student Handbook.
Therefore, students remain responsible and respect others when chalking on the sidewalks - especially because young, impressionable kids visit this campus. Because we don't know exactly who to blame and castigate for the inappropriate messages, we urge future chalkers to use tact when scribbling on University sidewalks. Even Queers and Allies deemed such chalkings inappropriate.

Reporters learn as they go, appreciate feedback

Last month, we did a spory about National Merit Scholars at the University of Kansas and those who go elsewhere. As we saw it, there are some discrepancies between the National Merit Scholars who attend the University and those who go to other universities. In fact, if one student on our staff would have gone to another university, he wouldn't be called a National Merit Scholar at all. Because the University

those at Ivy League schools.
Furthermore, Britz thought the story implied that merit scholars who attended other universities were more worthy than our own.
From our perspective, the article wasn't intended to critique the University, but to show some discrepences we saw between ourselves and other universities. Although we don't feel like our information needed correction, Bretz brought up valid points, which she plans to address in a column.
Although no newspaper wants to make mistakes, when a clear error has been made, it usually responds by letting go of its ego and making a correction. But what if, from the newspaper's perspective, there isn't a clear error? Fortunately, Brite came in to talk to us about the story and explain what was wrong from her point of view.
But if we don't think a correction is warranted, how should we address the discrepancies?
She knows the process better than we do. In fact, most sources know more about the subject of a story than the reporters do. Why do we bother with reporters, then?
In my opinion, the best way is having her use her own words to interpret the complex and sometimes confusing process of selecting merit scholars and bringing them to the University.
The main reason I can think of is that reporters provide a more unbiased view than the source could. In some cases, reporters are better able to put into words what sources who are so in depth with their subject can't articulate.
Fortunately, the Kansan has readers such as Bretz who read the paper with a critical eye, because we need to be thinking more critically, too.

Race to the finish
In one of the closest presidential races in decades, candidates offer clear choices
by Luke Wetzel Special to the Kansan
In one of the closest presidential races in recent history, students are looking to a few key issues to differentiate between Democratic candidate Al Gore and Republican candidate George W. Bush.
"Gore has moved to the left as the more aggressive, liberal candidate. He views the role of government as protecting the disadvantaged."
Paul Schumaker
chairman and professor of political science
"I realize its neck-to-neck," said Jon Sternberg, Topeka senior and secretary of KU College Republicans. "A lot of people think the candidates have no differences."
"Gore has moved to the left as the more aggressive, liberal candidate," he said. "He views the role of government as protecting the disadvantaged. Bush is running as a contemporary conservative, emphasizing the failure of government programs to successfully help people."
These opposing stances have manifested themselves in several key issues such as abortion, education and social security.
But Paul Schumaker, chairman and professor of political science, said the candidates held distinct ideologies. Those beliefs indicate the types of decisions they would make as president, he said.
Aravind Muthukrishan, Manhattan senior and issues coordinator for Student
Legislative Awareness Board, said Gore's abortion-rights platform and Bush's anti-abortion philosophy could be the defining issue for some voters.
"People may follow all of one candidate's issues, but they if disagree on abortion, that could cause them to change their vote." Muthukrishnan said.
Jesse Oehlerh, Haven junior and secretary of KU Young Democrats, said he was paying the most attention to Social Security and education.
"Education is something that affects us right now," he said. "Social Security will affect us in the future."
Gore has proposed a "lockbox" approach to the Social Security surplus, while Bush wants to free it up for private investment.
As part of his education plan, Gore has called for better teacher requirements and a tax break for college students. Bush supports standardized testing and promotion by grade level instead of age.
Sternberg said he thought Bush's character made him the best choice for president. "I feel that Governor Bush is an honorable man," he said. "We need someone with morals and honor in the White House."
Desyny Deitch, Manhattan freshman,
said she supported Gore because she
agreed with his position on abortion, education and health care.
"He focuses more on the facts," she said. "It's important for people to get out and vote because this president is going to be selecting Supreme Court justices."
Preston Quick, Topeka freshman, said that he hadn't yet chosen a candidate but that he did plan to vote in the election.
"The last debate will probably sway me," he said.
One candidate who wasn't able to sway voters through the debates was Green Party candidate Ralph Nader. Despite Nader's exclusion from the debates, the KU Green Party sent about 25 students and supporters to St. Louis to protest Nader's exclusion.
"Nader is the only candidate who has demonstrated through his words and actions a sincere belief in putting people before profits," said Sarah Hoskinson, Lawrence junior and president of the KU Green Party.
Hoskinson said she thought if Nader were elected, he would offer universal health care, alternative energy development, publicly funded elections, a living wage rather than a
"Bush is running as a contemporary conservative, emphasizing the failure of government programs to successfully help people." Paul Schumaker chairman and professor of political science
minimum wage and a clean environment. "I think that students should thoroughly investigate the views of all the candidates and support the person they truly believe in." she said.
n. she said Schumaker said the race depended on whether swing voters — and students — would turn out.
"Students are the least likely group to vote," he said. "If they turn out in large numbers, they could very well turn the tide one way or the other."

Registation drive tries to get students to vote
By Jacob Roddy
Special to the Kansan
National and local elections are less than three weeks away, and to follow up its voter registration drives, the Student Legislative Awareness Board plans to further promote student voting.
Andrew Bailey, the board's community affairs director, said SLAB would send letters reminding students who registered with them to vote. The letters will also tell students where and when to vote.
He said fliers and posters would also be posted in campus buildings, fraternities, sororites, scholarship halls and residence balls.
"I think it is important for students and
people our age to get involved in democratic processes like voting early, so as they get older, they're familiar with it and feel less disenfranchised," Bailey said. "Also, by voting we'll be respected more by the elected officials in Douglas County, and they'll know that we care about the KU and Lawrence communities and what goes on."
Bailey said SLAB had worked with a variety of student organizations, such as Black Student Union, during the voter registration drives and that they planned on continuing a collaborative effort to get students to the polls.
students to the polls.
Courtney Bates, president of Black Student Union and Chicago sophomore, said the group planned to discuss ways to get more
"We will be pushing it in our next few meetings, reminding students to get out and vote," she said. "Even though Kansas is a traditionally Republican state, it's important to vote so that you make your voice heard."
On Election Day, Bailey said SLAB members and other senators would be on campus encouraging people to vote.
Chris Hill, an Olathe senior who has been registered to vote since he was 18, said he thought SLAB's efforts, especially being on campus Tuesday, Nov. 7, to promote the student vote, were good.
"I think that will be effective because for some students, it's like they're out of sight, out of mind," he said. "And having people remind them would help get them to the
polls."
Heather Wigart, an Edina, Minn., senior who hasn't registered to vote, said she would like to see Student Senate provide students with objective information about each candidate.
"I haven't registered because I don't feel like I know about the issues and wouldn't have an educated vote." she said.
Bailey said that the last day to register was Monday, Oct. 23, and that students who didn't registered could do so at the Senate office on the 4th floor of the Kansas Union; at the Spahr Engineering Library on the second floor of Learned Hall; or at the Multicultural Resource Center.

Competitive U.S. House race heats up
Candidates focus on government spending, education
By Rob Pazell
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The heated race for the U.S. 3rd Congressional District has been one of Kansas closest campaigns this fall.
Incumbent Democrat Dennis Moore, who won the seat in 1998, is running for reelection against Republican Phill Kline and Libertarian Chris Mina.
Kline, who has been a member of the Kansas House of Representatives since
1992, said the student vote was important and urged students to vote so they could be heard on issues such as Social Security, which they would want in the future.
"Decisions we're making have a big impact on the lives of students and on any other voting population," said Kline, who earned his law degree from the University of Kansas. "They need to engage themselves so they can be heard."
"We have to realize government is spending more," Kline said. "I support setting aside Social Security, a growing government and putting the surplus back into tax relief."
Kline said he supported many tax cuts in the Kansas House and planned on putting the projected $1.3 trillion federal surplus to the task of relieving taxes.
Moore, who won the 3rd District seat in 1998, disagreed with Kline on what to do
with the federal budget surplus, favoring debt reduction over a tax break.
"We should use roughly half of the true surplus for debt reduction," said Moore, who also is a KU alumnus. "If we can substantially reduce the debt, then we can drive down interest rates."
Moore also said that he was a strong believer in local education but that the federal government must also play a role in getting more technology into classrooms.
"I think the federal government should be a strong a junior partner and we need to have schools modernized." Moore said.
Kline said he advocated local control of schools, with the federal government playing a limited role.
"We must have local control," Kline said. "We must block grant money back so that local teachers, parents and administrators can decide for the students."
Mina, who is vice chairman of the Kansas State Libertarian Party, said he would work to eliminate the federal income tax.
"There's no reason you can't pay for government with excise taxes and tariffs," Mina said. "I would legally abolish the IRS."
Mina said he would also remove the government's hand in schools.
"It ties the university's hands and makes it spend money on administration and not students," Mina said.
Mitch Trope, Overland Park junior and moderate Republican, said it would be tough for him to vote.
Irrelevant issues keep young away from polls

In 1971, 18-year-olds were granted the right to vote.
But in 2000, fewer than half of American adults ages 18 to 24 said they would cast their votes in the presidential election, according to the Associated Press.
Mark Joslyn, assistant professor of political science, said young voter apathy was the result of candidates not focusing on the 18-to-24 age group.
"The candidates know what part of the electorate votes, and it happens to be the older and more educated," he said.
Sjoslyn said candidates' platform issues were a substantial contributor to the low interest of young voters.
"Iissues like Medicare and Social Security are pointed at baby boomers," he said.
"When someone 18 to 25 watches the debates, they tend to think, 'Why should I care?' They see no reason to go out and participate because no one is talking to them."
On the local level, Douglas County records showed that in 1996, 702 out of 1,399 registered KU students voted in the presidential election at the Allen Fieldhouse precinct, which typically serve student voters living on Daisy Hill and in Jayhawker Towers. However, more students may have voted at other locations. Records from 1998 showed that 118 out of 1,034 registered students voted in state government elections.
Jo Alquest, Douglas County clerk, said presidential elections typically saw higher voter turnouts.
"They'll be heavy for the presidential election and very light for any other election," she said.
Liz Prosser, Lawrence sophomore, said she thought most candidates weren't concerned with addressing the college-age group.
"As far as presidential and more important leaders, you never see or read about them coming to talk to us," she said.
Nationally, 1996 election results showed that one-third of adults between 18 and 24 voted, and one out of five cast ballots in 1996's midterm elections.
Joslyn said that issues candidates could address to attract the young vote included financing university education and issues regarding employment after graduation.
"Whoever is sitting up there in the presidential spot reflects me
as a voter, and if there's someone who doesn't reflect me, it's my fault."
Lanard Paden Kansas City, Kan., sophomore
Joslyn also said that young voters showed interest typically for politicians such as President Bill Clinton and Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura, who were highly exposed to young voters. He said Ventura's former professional wrestling career undoubtedly contributed to his success.
Lanard Paden, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, said he saw larger efforts being made to attract young voters in national programs such as MTY's Choose or Lose and at universities with student organizations holding registration drives.
"In past years, the reason why a lot didn't vote was because no one publicized teens to
vote," he said. "They've come a long way in registering, but they will not know until the next step is taken and people start voting."
Joslyn said the 2000 presidential candidates showed little concern about young voters compared to Clinton in the '96 elections.
"I don't think they stimulate a lot of the attention that Ventura and Clinton did," he said. "The issues of today are not pointed at that part of the electorate."
Christopher Kennedy, Effingham sophomore, said the issues candidates addressed didn't immediately affect young voters.
"Issues like gas prices are what we care about because it affects us now," he said. "But issues like social security we'll care about later when we're more active voters." Kennedy said he voted in the past and
Kennedy said he voted in the past and saw it as his patriotic duty to cast the ballot.
"I see it as something you have to do to make the country run." he said.
Despite young voter apathy, Paden said voting was important.
wnoever is sitting up there in the presidential spot reflects me as a voter, and if there's someone who doesn't reflect me, it's my fault," he said.

Kansas Democrats struggle for votes
Special to the Kansan
Democrats in Kansas are a perennial but feisty underdog.
If history holds true, Democratic candidate Al Gore has a tough task in Kansas.
Not since 1964 have Kansas' electoral votes gone to the Democratic candidate. That year, Lyndon B. Johnson won 44 states including Kansas, which he won with 54 percent of the vote.
John F. Kennedy couldn't crack 40 percent of the popular vote in the republican stronghold of Kansas; Bill Clinton no better.
"If you want a political career in Kansas, you're better off being a moderate Republican," said Donald Haider-Markel, assistant professor of political science.
There is no Democratic candidate in the 1st Congressional District this election year. The district stretches across more than 75 percent of Kansas' area.
Haider-Markel said Democrats in Kansas were more moderate and presented their messages differently from other Democrats.
And although Lawrence has traditionally been one of the rare Democratic strongholds, the city's suburban sprawl may be strengthening the Republican vote.
"Because of a change in demographics, more people not associated with the
University live in Lawrence". Haider-Markel said. "They're people from Kansas City and Topeka who are relatively young urban professionals who tend to vote Republican."
Haider-Markel also said polls showed that student voting had tilted toward the Republican column in the last 20 years.
"Democrats are more organized and enthusiastic in Kansas," Merz said. "There's an interesting dynamic; you have to try a little harder."
Julie Merz, president of KU Young Democrats, said Kansas Democrats found strength in adversity.
Troy Findley, the incumbent Democratic candidate for the 46th District seat of the Kansas House of Representatives, beat the odds. He said his party had to be enthusiastic.
"We've got to campaign harder and answer no doubt about it." Findley said.
Although it takes hard work, Democrats have won high seats in Kansas government.
"No one expects that in the last 50 years there would have been a Democratic governor in Kansas," Findley said.
But instead, no Republican governor except for Gov. Bill Graves has been re-elected in more than 30 years.
Findley traces Democratic support in Lawrence to the rise of former Gov. George Docking, a Democrat and Lawrence businessman who won the governor's race in
Alice Lieberman, associate professor of social welfare and Douglas County Democratic Party chairwoman, said she was confident of her party's ability to win.
1966. His son, Robert, was a Democrat who served as Kansas' governor from 1966 to 1974.
"You recognize that every race is that much harder because you start at a disadvantage," she said.
Kansas voters sometimes follow party lines less closely as they hug the political middle.
"When you have a very, very conservative Republican and a moderate Democrat, (voters) feel more ideologically close to the moderate Democrat." Lieberman said.
Presidential candidates George W. Bush and Gore have avoided Kansas.
Tucker Poling, Lawrence senior, said he was thinking about voting for Harry Browne, the Libertarian Party candidate.
"Both campaigns have written off Kansas because one, Bush wins and two, Kansas is small." Merz said.
Sometimes voters in Kansas vote for third party candidates instead of either the Republican or Democratic choices.
"Everyone assumes that Kansas will vote Republican and voting is a waste of time." Poling said. "Sometimes people are more likely to throw in a protest vote for a third-party candidate."

Record number of early votes may sway close races
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A record number of Americans will vote before Election Day this year, a phenomenon that's transforming the parties' get-out-and-vote drives and could affect tight races for president and Congress.
Oregon is holding the nation's first all-mail balloting, and millions more will vote absentee in states such as California, Washington, Nevada and Arizona, where control of the House and Senate could be settled.
The numbers keep rising as states make it easier to vote ahead
of time.
Washington, where the absentee vote is expected to top 50 percent, has three competitive House races, a key Senate contest and a tight presidential battle. The state counts all absentee ballots postmarked by Election Day, so votes will still be coming in after Nov. 7.
"If it's a close election this time, it's possible we could have to wait a week to find out the winner," said Bryan Jones, a political scientist at the University of Washington.
spen the difference in control of Congress. Nevada, where absentee and early voting accounted for more than 40 percent of the 1998 vote, has competitive Senate and House races.
California, where more than 1 million absentee ballots won't be counted until after Election Day, has five House races that could
Both parties are maneuvering to turn the early voting into a political advantage.
"We're doing mail, phones, door-to-door canvassing, and we've got our precinct organizations in place and our grass-roots organizations in place," said Ryan Erwin, executive director of the Republican Party in Nevada, where early voting begins Saturday.
"My pledge to voters is we'll quit
bugging you when you vote," he said.
In Oregon, Vice President Al Gore's campaign also is kicking off its get-out-the-vote effort this week, when voters start receiving ballots in the mail.
"We're going to focus on making sure our voters turn in their ballots in time for them to count," campaign spokesman David Chai said. "We're going to make sure we go to every single household in our base and to independents and some Republicans as well."
Republicans historically have benefited more from absentee votes because "it's the upscale people and
the people who are more regular voters who avail themselves of these things," said Curtis Gans, director of the Committee for the Study of the American Electorate.
"More than likely now, it's going to fairly accurately reflect the public at large in those states because the process has been so simplified and made as convenient as possible," he said.
But Doug Lewis, who heads a Houston-based association of election and voter registration officials, said the liberalization of absentee and early voting rules during the past decade may have eroded that GOP edge.
That's what happened in Washington, one of the few states that record the differences between absentee and election day voting.
In 1992, when 18 percent of the vote was absentee, President Clinton defeated former President Bush 44 percent to 31 percent among Election Day voters, but just 41 percent to 36 percent among absentees.
Six years later, when almost half the votes cast in the Washington Senate race were absentee, Democratic Sen. Patty Murray defeated Republican Linda Smith, winning 58 percent on Election Day and 59 percent of the absentees.

Faculty member pursues fifth term
By Jason Krall
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Barbara Ballard hopes to use a fifth term as 44th Dist. Rep. to ensure continued success for education reform and social programs she's already begun.
But that doesn't mean Ballard, associate vice chancellor for student affairs at the University of Kansas, intends to rest on her laurels.
The Democratic candidate hopes to promote legislation that would provide need-based financial aid to students at Kansas universities, helping offset rising tuition at institutions such as KU.
"When we raise tuition, we have to put money there for students who may not be able to afford it." she said.
"I'd just as soon have someone in there who cares about me as a student," he said.
I am the author of the book "The Psychology of Love" and its sequel, "The Psychology of Happiness." I also wrote a memoir, "A Memoir of My Life," which was published in 2016.
because she was a KU administrator with the University's interests in mind.
Ballard: Hopes to be elected for a fifth term in the Kansas Legislature.
Andy Bean,
Menomonie.
Wis., sophomore, said he

as a candidate
Ballard said she would continue to support funding for child exchange and visitation centers, which she introduced as a social program in Kansas four years ago. The centers supervise exchanges of children between divorced parents who have joint custody, as well as children's visits with parents who do not have custody. The supervision reduces the potential for confrontations and even violence between parents. A program known as FARM performs those services in Lawrence.
As a member of the house appropriations committee, Ballard said she would continue to focus on making sure social services, including assisted living programs, such as Meals on Wheels, received increased funding to meet their growing needs. She hopes to expand programs financed by the Neighborhood Improvement Youth Employment Act, which she sponsored in 1994. The law provides funding for youth mentoring programs around the state, including a program at the Pelathe Indian Center in Lawrence that pairs low-income high school students with adult mentors.
Ballard also hopes to promote tourism throughout the state. Though she voted to allow officials in DeSoto to explore the possibility of the controversial $284 million Oz amusement park project, she said she would rather use state funds to promote Kansas' existing attractions.
But education remains Ballard's top issue. Bringing salaries for faculty at KU up to those of its peer universities is one of her main objectives.
"In some cases we compete with business for faculty, and we can never compete with the salaries businesses can offer," she said. "But we can try to offer a higher salary, if their love is higher education."

'Once in a lifetime'
Student spends semester at Gore campaign headquarters
Carly and John
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Annie Hedricks is enjoying her semester working at Vice President Al Gore's presidential campaign headquarters.
Not many students answer the phone at their jobs and have Vice President AI Gore on the other end of the line — but Annie Hendricks does.
But Anne Henderson,
The Clinton, Mo., senior is working at Gore's campaig
headquarters in Nashville, Tenn., this semester
as an assistant to Gore's chief of staff.
Hendricks, a journalism major, said she never was terribly interested in politics, but when the opportunity to intern for the campaign during the summer arose, she took it as an experience that doesn't come around very often.
"I never really was that interested." Hendricks said. "I voted and everything, but now that I'm on the campaign, I am more passionate about the election. I just thought it would be a great opportunity. My first choice was to work in the communications department, but I got placed in management. I decided it was a once-in-a lifetime opportunity, so I went ahead and took it."
Apparently, she had what it took to do the job and was offered a paying position as Chief of Staff Chip Smith's assistant for the remainder of the campaign.
Hendricks said her job responsibilities included a little bit of everything. She helps keep Smith, who answers to 150 employees, stay on track with his schedule. She also proofreads press releases and tracks General Election Accounting Fund money, which is the money Gore would use for legal expenses during his term if elected.
She also gets to see campaign commercials before they're broadcast, helps with polling and often types up speeches for the campaign.
And then there's the routine office tasks, such as answering the phone.
"Al Gore calls all the time," Hendricks said. "I'll pick up the phone and hear, 'This is Al Gore calling for Tad,' who's a senior adviser on the campaign. It's not a big deal. It's kind of cool that Al Gore calling seems normal."
"It's a real learning experience." Hendricks said. "Where I'm at, I get to see all the inside stuff. It's very exciting. I see how brilliant they are with strategy and how their minds work."
Her position has also allowed her to go behind the closed doors of the "war room" the conference room where campaign big shots plan their strategies. "The War Room" documentary about Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign made the room famous.
The excitement of being on the front lines of a presi-
dential race has its price, though. While her fellow KU
students are cramming for midterms and blowing off steam at local bars, Hendricks works 12-hour days, six days a week.
"The campaign office is open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and that when we're there," Hendricks said. "It's really long hours but it's exciting. But I do cherish my Sundays."
"There was this energy there, with all the delegates and exciting speakers and so many important people there supporting Al Gore." Hendricks said. "There were a lot of famous people."
One of the highlights of her experience, Hendricks said, was attending the Democratic National Convention in August.
Although she is enjoying her experience at campaign headquarters, Hendricks said she didn't foresee a career of campaign-hopping.
career of campaigns app. "I would never work for a campaign where I didn't believe in the candidate," Hendricks said. "I really think it's essential that Al Gore wins."
And she said she believed Gore would win the race, which has proven to be one of the tightest contests in recent history.
"He has amazing ideas about social security, health care and prescription drugs." Hendricks said. "His interests are working families, which is a majority of the people in the U.S."
On a more personal side, Hendricks said the Gore family was easy to get along with.
"Al and Tipper are great parents, and they all are really down-to-earth and fun," Hendricks said. "And Karina is doing a great job of trying to impact the youth vote. She travels around and reaches out not to just students,but young professionals,too."
Hendricks said a campaign doesn't have a lot of money to pay its workers, so the workers tended to be young people without families and other responsibilities.
"It's good though, because you get new ideas," she said. "Young people are fired up to make a difference and to have an impact. We have a different insight than older people and kind of give a fresh look at issues that interest us."
interests us.
Hendricks said she earned about $1,600 a month,
which is enough to pay rent and her living expenses.
She'd make more, she said, if she had a degree.
Hendricks decided to apply for the internship at the recommendation of a friend who worked on a previous campaign. Her uncle, who is a lobbyist on Capitol Hill for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, helped her get a foot in the door.
Patty Noland, career development coordinator for the School of Journalism, helped Hendricks with the online application, her resume and cover letter. Noland said Hendricks made a good choice in deciding to work for the campaign this semester instead of coming back to school and graduating in December.
"To work on a presidential campaign is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that can lead to further connections to great things." Noland said. "The networking she can get from this is amazing, I encouraged her to do it." Noland said Hendricks had the right type of personali-
one's very enthusiastic and very energetic." Noland said. "She's a hard worker and it 24-7 on a campaign, so you need to have that kind of temperament. She worked for free for two months, and because she worked hard and did a great job, they offered her the full-time position."
Kerry Benson, lecturer in the journalism school, had Hendricks as a student in her business writing class and said her personable character suited the job.
"She is tenacious and knows no strangers." Benson said. "I think she's particularly suited for Gore's campaign because she's from a small town in Missouri, so she can relate to the issues he's addressing and really knows what he's saying."
Hendricks will return to Lawrence next semester to complete her education. She said this experience had opened her mind to the different options available.
"I don't know for sure what I'm going to do when I come back," she said. "I might intern at a PR firm in Kansas City. I'd like to see different aspects of what I can do. But this has definitely opened my mind to things that I hadn't considered doing."
Law student running for Kansas House of Representatives
Candidate focuses on salaries, tuition
By Jason Krall

Kansas staff writer
If you think cramming for midterms is tough, try balancing a grassroots, door-to-door campaign with the workload of a second-year law student.
the 46th District of the State House of Representatives, is doing just that.
Running against an incumbent who has gone unchallenged in the last two elections, Democrat Troy Findley. Hunter is driven by campus issues like limits on tuition hikes and tuition breaks for graduate teaching assistants. He's also strongly opposed to $284 million in state funding for the long-bated Oz amusement park in DeSoto.
Pete Hunter, Republican candidate for
Hunter is calling for a bill to put a three-year cap on tuition increases at Kansas universities.
"We need to tie the Board of Regents' hands." Hunter said. "I don't want the crown jewel of our state university system to be inaccessible to middle-class and lower-middle class families in Kansas."
He has proposed that GTAs from out of state be offered in-state tuition rates.
"It's time to reward the people who do a lot of the heavy lifting at this University," he said.
during his childhood. Since the privatization of child welfare services in 1994, adoption agencies have begun to encourage foster families to adopt their foster children. The practice takes foster families out of circulation for children who need temporary homes.
Hunter also advocates foster-care reform. He grew up in Olathe, where his parents took in seven foster children
"When we had foster children, we knew that it was always temporary, even if it was for two years," Hunter said. "Now you don't know that anymore."
Though most of the 46th District encompasses the KU campus and student neighborhoods, it also includes southeast Lawrence. Hunter said his stance on issues like the Oz amusement park and his call to eliminate sales tax on food should appeal to those voters.
Taylor Duncan, Winfield sophomore, said he'd be more likely to vote for Hunter because he was a KU student with a strong higher education platform. "If he's trying to help out the University of Kansas, I'd most definitely vote for him," Duncan said.

Perspective
Messages weren't part of Coming Out Day
As a gay man and a member of Queers and Allies, I feel compelled to address the obscenities displayed on campus. First and foremost, the obscenities were not from the official Queers and Allies organization. We do not condone or encourage such behavior. The obscenities that a very minute percent of our organization chose to write shocked and abhorred all of us. Their actions are being dealt with and punished within the organization.
Secondly, the official plan was to advertise the National Coming Out Day events that were taking place at the Kansas Union. Those sidewalk messages were done on Tuesday evening at 5:30 by a group chosen by Queers and Allies. Then, a few people not affiliated with the 5:30 group chalked campus around midnight. These people did not notify Queens and Allies of their plans. However, the organization is taking responsibility for these members. We also took on the responsibility to help clean the obscenities from campus.
Finally, civil rights and respect are very important to us. The progress has been slow but rewarding. We do not want to stunt the growth of progress nor do we want to offend anyone. Those that were offended have my sincere apology.

Columnist's perspective on Green Party flawed
It is clear from Andrew Marino's Perspective piece that he lacks even a vague sense of what the Green Party's agenda is, or for that matter, what is at stake in the coming election. Rather than "telling us all how to live," the Green Party is an expression of modern day populism. People are tired of being pushed around by a complex bureaucracy and the economic/political weight of the Fortune 500, always up against a mountain of paperwork and unable to match the funding of the big boys.
A major first step toward restoring a more equitable distribution of political power would be to ban soft money, large campaign contributions from corporations and trade unions marked as "party building" funds. By effectively making corporations and unions play by the same
rules as ordinary citizens, is it not a fair assumption that the people's interest would be addressed more fairly than it is now? While both the Republicans and Democrats talk about campaign finance reform, they continue to accept soft money contributions. To me, this says neither takes this issue very seriously, and by not taking this issue seriously, they do not take the citizens they "represent" very seriously, either.
Marino also misses the point about when he mentions how people benefit from the proliferation of corporate America. Do people benefit when they are downsized out of a job? Do people benefit when one company basically establishes a media trust i.e.
Time/Warner/AOL)? Even though the GNP and per capita income are at all-time highs, Americans now work on average 45 hours per week; this is over 150 more hours than the Japanese work annually. And finally, what about a single-payer system for health care? It's about time the United States caught up with the rest of the world on that one. I must ask again, are these really benefits? If your name is Bill Gates, I suppose they are.
Also, a note on Nader's crusade for safer automobiles. If Marino had ever bothered to read Unsafe at any Speed, he would know that GM knew the Corvair's suspension buckled on cornering several years before the car was produced, but did nothing. He would know that seat belts and safety glass were proven lifesavers as early as the 1920s, but that automakers refused to implement them because they interfered with styling. He would know that low emissions equipment has existed since the late 1940s and that smog has been linked (and continues to be linked in the year 2000) to chronic asthma and other health problems. Is avoiding death and dismemberment not in the interest of the consumer?
In closing, all I have to offer for prospective voters is this: Please know how all the candidates stack up against each other. Do not vote blindly.
immigration helps to serve the nation
I am the president of Alesec, an organization at the University of Kansas that not only sends KU students on international internships, but brings students from other countries to the Lawrence/Kansas City area to work at paid internships.
I would like to offer a couple words of agreement with Mark Goode's opinion piece about the anti-immigration advertisement in
the Kansan.
In the experiences the members of our organization have had dealing with major corporations, we have found that immigration actually helps to create more jobs in the United States. Like Goode pointed out, many technology companies need a lot of high-tech employees but can't find them in the U.S. So that leaves them with two options:
1. Keep the company in the United States and bring international talent to these positions that can't be filled by U.S. employees.
2. Move the company to areas where there is a lot of high tech talent such as India, which produces much of the world's leading high-tech talent, or to the potential high-growth market of China.
By importing international talent, more jobs are kept in the United States and these companies can continue to innovate and fuel the U.S. economy. Closing our borders would force a lot of companies out of the U.S., causing a lot of jobs to go with them.
Our country was made by immigration; nowadays immigration reinforces it.
Coverage should focus on real news
"news"paper) should be required to take a class that teaches them how to discern news from drive.
Now, I'm no journalism major,
but I am a veteran of the United States Military. This may make me biased, but I'm pretty sure that the deaths of 17 United States sailors is a bit more important than a rumor about a frat house ghost. On Thursday there was a tiny story (with no photo) about the attack on the USS Cole on page five, but the story about a ghost in a frat house was on page one with a huge headline and a big color photo of two frat guys, neither of whom, by the way, were ghosts.
If the purpose of the School of Journalism is to prepare students to be journalists, why aren't we teaching them to print news on the first few pages of the newspaper and save the goofy ghost rumors and other crappy stories for the back page? I think journalism students (or at least the ones who lay out the

Religion neutrality unfortunate for society
On Oct. 16 David Grumman wrote: "My first concern with [school vouchers] is that it interfes with the separation of church and state. From the state's perspective, this means some public money would fund religious schools, not a role government should play."
The idea of separation of church and state is not in the Constitution. Furthermore, the idea that the government should not pay money to religious schools simply because they are religious is without precedent. The truth is that state money is already being given to many religious organizations. State scholarships pay for students to attend private religious schools. Government programs like Medicare and Medicaid pay for care at both religious and secular hospitals. Please tell why state money can pay for college education and not primary and secondary education.
I suspect the reason that you really do not want state money to go to these schools is that you do not want to have the state directly or indirectly teach children about our spirituality. The truth is that public schools tacitly, if not overtly, teach that religion is irrelevant. Religion is not an issue on which someone can be truly neutral. You can actively promote it or you can subvert it by saying it is not important enough to be discussed. Either way you have taken a side. Thus, the state is already teaching our children about religion, by saying it is irrelevant.
The attempts our society has made to be neutral about religious values in the public sphere has, in fact, neutralized religion. Without religion we have no place to look to find value outside of ourselves. Any other place we look for value will be devoid of any true meaning. Just as a counterfeiter knows that the money he makes is really worthless, so the meaning we create for ourselves apart from a transcendent God will also be meaningful.

International decoration food highlight restaurant
By Matt Morkel-Hess
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A new restaurant is bringing the flavor of the Middle East, Persia and North Africa to Lawrence with a twist — it has an indoor tent where customers can sit on cushions at low tables.
Casablanca Cafe, 2223 C Louisiana St., opened four weeks ago and business has increased steadily, said coowner Rabih Baddoura.
"Nobody has the same decoration in Lawrence," he said. "It's something different that no one has tried."
Baddoura said the tent was from Saudi Arabia, the cushions Syria and the rugs Turkey. The restaurant also has regular seating and booths.
Casablanca Cafe also imports all of its spices, which are ground fresh every week.

restaurant."
Safouane Elmansour, Rabat, Morrocco, senior, is a walter at the cafe and said he enjoyed the restaurant because many of the employees were students. He also said that large groups of people often ate in the tent and then hung around and enjoyed the atmosphere.
"We bring something that the other Middle Eastern restaurants couldn't, which is atmosphere," he said. "On top of that, the food is great."
Baddoura said the gyros, shawerma, tabbouleh, falafel and other items on the menu were similar to home-style cooking he had at his parents' home in Qatar, which is one
reason why he wanted to start the restaurant.
"I was really missing the food," he said. "The food we do here is the same quality you would have in a home."
Baddoura came to Lawrence in January 1997 to study aerospace engineering but is taking a break from school to focus on the restaurant. He said planning began almost a year ago, when he and co-owner Ahmed Alrumaith talked about opening a sandwich deli.
But their plans changed when they found the current location and realized they could open a full-service restaurant.
"You can never tell how plans will change," he said. "I'm really satisfied with the response we've been having with the customers."
Baddoura, 24, said he hadn't planned to open a restaurant when he came to Lawrence, but he thought it was good to take the risk when he was young and didn't have much responsibility.

Residents fear crime at complex
Continued from page 1A
revealed that no current or past residents were involved. She said the crimes were not related to anyone in the complex, citing last week's robbery of a Gumby's pizza delivery driver as an example.
"We called Gumby's and spoke to the management and the man who was assaulted," Wintle said. "He admitted he was followed down 15th. When he stepped out of the car to deliver his pizza, that's when they jumped him."
"We cooperate as much as we can," said Lawrence police Det. M.T. Brown. "We are more than willing to cooperate with any complex managers."
Brown added that the police department would be willing to answer any questions the complex managers presented.
Brian Hanni, Topeka junior, who has lived at the complex for just more than a year, is one of the complex's concerned residents. He said he had been more cautious since two of his friends' cars were burglarized.
"I used to leave the face on my CD player and all my CDs in the car," Hanni said. "Since then, to this day, I won't leave the face on and I conceal anything of value."
Det. Brown said the area was prone to auto burglaries.
Chase Pettus, Fayetteville, Ark., junior, left his car parked under a light in the lot for about 24 hours when he traveled with Hanni to St. Louis for a Cardinal's game in August. When he returned from his trip, he found someone had broken into his car.
"They broke in my window to get into the vehicle and messed up the dashboard trying to get the CD player out," Pettus said. "They also messed up the frame of my door trying to get in. It was around $1,500 to get it fixed. But they left my Bible." — Edited by Erin McDaniel

Researchers creating bio-database
By Travis Reed Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas' Natural History Museum looks like any other building on campus: constructed of limestone with a rust-hued top that blends inconspicuously into the background with the onset of fall.
But inside, what University Biodiversity Center researchers are doing render the building behind the times — in more ways than one.
University researchers are spearheading an effort to change the way species diversity is researched and legislated.
"Basically, what we're doing is leading a national and international initiative to access all of the information associated with three billion plants and animals in the world's museums that've been collected in the past 250 years," said Leonard Krishtalka, director of the Biodiversity center.
The idea of the project, funded largely by $3 million in federal grants, is to create a comprehensive online database of species records.
The data will be used to predict how independent variables like climate change, invasive species and communicable diseases will affect a community. The information is available now, but it's disjointed and must be accessed manually.
If researchers wanted to predict how a phenomenon would affect a population without the software, they would have to visit each museum and search manually through its book of cataloged species, document the results and make predictions independently.
But in a few years, with the software being developed by KU researchers, they could access that information with a few clicks of a mouse.
Townsend Peterson, associate professor of biology and co-director of the program's development, said the country might have been saved from invasive species if this technology had been available years ago. These invasive species devastated industry and upset the equilibrium of their particular ecosystems. Medical researchers might have been pre-equipped to handle diseases such as the West Nile
virus; and the national landscape might be dandelion-free.
"It would be taking points where a species is known and relating those points to the geological and ecological background across the continent and asking what's special about these points that are known." Peterson said. "Once it has the model, we can predict things."
The hard part could be compiling all the information into a single comprehensive database. Peterson said the software had cataloged about 14 million specimens from 15 data sources. Another 30 sources are waiting to be connected, which would add about 36 million more species to the record.
Kristalka said he expected the database to be running at a fairly comprehensive and user-friendly level within a couple years. By that point, he said even lay persons could take advantage of the software for their own queries.
"Ultimately, we want to turn this Web facility into a public facility," Kristalka said. "To be a knowledge server for the public so they can, for example, type in their zip code and get an instant reading of
the animals and plants they should expect to find there."

832-8228
University researchers have garnered national acclaim for their work in this arena, and their proficiency has landed them space in many of the most well-respected scientific journals since the project began in 1997.
"Between 30 and 50 universities in the country have natural history museums of one kind or another," he said. "None of them have this kind of an informatics research initiative. And very few of them are even close to us in the very basic research of the composition and relationships of the animals and plants on the planet."
Krishtalka said he and other University researchers would be meeting in December with officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to step up efforts in predicting the intrusion of foreign disease, and they are working on recently received grants from the Environmental Protection Agency to explore the prediction of invasive species and analyze optimum areas for wildlife conservation.

Coffee craftsman COFFEE WEEK
By Sara Shepherd Special to the Kansan
For award-winning barista Clint Idol, it's not just about the caffeine
Laptop computers, books and a game of backgammon are strewn over the tables in the coffee shop at 11 E. Eighth Street. A light breeze blows through the open front door, and the whir of a blender, the whoosh of the espresso machine and the clanking of ceramic dishes being dumped into a tub intermittently interrupts the blaring music.
More than half of the seats at Henry's are full on a sunny Thursday afternoon.
In between surges of customers, a single barista — Clint Idol,
Topeka junior — quickly replenishes the stacks of plastic to-go
lids, straws and napkins.
"Taste OK?" he calls to an exiting customer.
Feat, it is good, comes the reply,
"Are you sure?" Idol asks again.
Obviously a friend, the patron says, "If I thought it sucked, I'd make you make me another one."
make you think Idol started working behind the counter of the Eighth Street coffee bar when it opened about two years ago. After taking second place in a national coffee competition in the spring, he's had job offers from a few other shops across the country, but for now, Idol said he was enjoying what he was doing in Lawrence.
A new scene
Idol, a confessive coffee addict, said he usually drank a four-shot latte before class in the morning and another cup of coffee later. But once he starts his 4 to 9 p.m. shift at Henry's, keeping track becomes tricky.
"I might as well have an intravenous drip or something." Idol said, "It's just like a constant supply."
But for Idol. coffee is not just about caffeine.
Idol's interest in coffee started early, around age 13. He said he first got hooked by the coffee house ambiance when his stepfather took him to a poetry-reading.
"It was a new scene," Idol said. "The atmosphere probably started it; I think that was the draw."
After frequenting PT's in his hometown of Topeka, Idol got his first job behind the counter there.
"It started out just really liking coffee and the art behind it," Idol said. "Now it's more of a social thing."
Henry's owner Dave Boulter described Idol not only as modest, gracious, dedicated and honest, but also as "incredibly personable" — an essential trait for getting along in the social atmosphere at a downtown Lawrence coffee bar, where patrons come dressed in anything from suits and ties to piercings and tattoos.
"when you're working behind the counter, you certainly can't have any types of prejudices," Boulter said.
The best espresso
Boulter, who said he had sipped coffee all over the world, recommended 100ml-made brew over anything else.
"I really think he makes the best espresso that I've ever had anywhere," Boulter said. "He's a master of detail when it comes to making it."
So what is Idol's secret to pulling a quality shot or pouring a quality cup?
"How do you make a good cup of coffee? It's kind of like asking somebody, 'How do you blow smoke rings?' Idol said. "Out of 100 people, you'll get 100 different responses."
Idol said there was a standard method of measuring and using the machines that required a surprisingly high level of timing, precision and practice. After that, it depends on the barista's personal style — and his or her love for the job.
style and his love of coffee. "He [Idol] looks at this as an art, not just a job in a coffee shop," Boulter said. "He's great with coffee because he has a passion for it."
Idol, who also trains new employees at Henry's, said new employees were usually surprised at all they had to learn.
"When I train people, they look at me like they're just dumb-bounded," Idol said. "It gets really technical."
Idol, a purist, said his favorite drink was a straight shot of espresso or a very short double latte.
"The more milk—it mars the flavor," he said.
All for fun
Idol was one of six baristas chosen nationwide from a pool of more than 200 applicants to participate in a national coffee competition last April. The sponsors flew him to San Francisco, where the competition was held as part of an annual coffee conference, Idol said.
To compete, Idol made coffee on command in front of a panel of six judges, as well as an audience of friends, family, and other conference-goers.
Baristas were judged on qualities such as personal style, technicality, precision, personality and efficiency — all reflected by a strategically placed mirror above the coffee bar.
Though some of his jitters were caffeine-induced (free coffee was abundant that weekend), Idol said he was a bit nervous. But in spite of the seriousness of the competition, he said his main goal was to have fun.
Idol's second place prizes included an aluminum trophy, $100, T-shirts, and a new espresso machine.
it's really pretty," Idol said. "But I never use it."
Idol said it just wasn't usually worth the effort to make coffee at home.
"I just don't even bother," he said. "I just come here."
A very diverse person
Making coffee isn't the only thing keeping Idol busy. He also works the door at Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., plays in a band and hopes to someday teach English.
"He's one of the most unusual and one of the most dynamic people I've ever met in my life," said Margot Angles, Idol's roommate. "He's a very diverse person, just in terms of his likes and dislikes."
"He's a very diverse person, just in case Angles met Idol several years ago when they worked together at Henry's. She said Idol didn't talk much about work when he came home. The two, and a third roommate who also works at Henry's, are friends and usually talk about what is going on in their lives, she said.
"All three of us have or have had the same job, so we know what's going on," Angles said. "We've all been there."
Boulter said he thought Idol's ability to make good coffee stemmed from his general passion for whatever he did — whether it be playing in a band or working at Henry's.

Academics accentuate linebacker's performance
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Last Saturday, Tim Bowers, senior linebacker and second-year co-captain, had the kind of game most athletes dream about. He intercepted a Missouri pass and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown and also recovered a Tiger fumble.
Bowers, a fifth-year senior from Columbus, Ohio, came to Kansas as a safety but was a redshirt before moving to linebacker in the spring of his first year at Kansas.
He started 10 of 12 games as a junior and earned honorable mention All-Big 12 Conference honors. This year he has started all six games and was selected by the Kansas coaches as Jayhawk defensive player of the week for his performance in the Jayhawks 38-17 win against Missouri.
However, Bowers is more than just a good football player; he's also a top-notch scholar with a lengthy list of awards.
school With a劲意! Bowers was a first-team Academic All-Big 12 Conference selection as a redshirt freshman, as a sophomore and as a junior.
He earned NCAA District VII Academic All-America honors as a sophomore. As a junior he was named to the District VII Academic All-America second team.
Bowers also was named to the Big 12 Conference Commissioner's Honor Roll, and he has been recognized twice as a University of Kansas Black Faculty and Staff Council Scholar.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said the rest of the football team appreciated what Bowers brought to the team.

attitude about classes.
"I try to keep it as not being a task to do my work," he said. "I just make it a habit. Just like it's a habit to go to practice Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday; it's a habit to go to class. It's just something you've got to do while you're here.
Success in the classroom is important, but Bowers, 6-foot and 230 pounds, said Saturday's victory at Missouri also was important to him and the team.
"It was a road win. It was a Big 12 road win, and it's Missouri," Bowers said. "It means a lot to this team. I think it gives us some momentum going into the Colorado game."
Bowers is a political science major but said he also has done a lot of premed work.
He said that after graduation he would like to work for a pharmaceutical company or perhaps attend medical school or business school.
"There's just a lot of different options right now," Bowers said.

Trainer pumps up 'Hawks

Kanan sportswriter
Don't be surprised if the Kansas women's basketball team spends a little extra time in front of the mirror this season. Don't blame it on vanity; blame it on reality.
Don Collins is our head coach.
The Jayhawks are primed and in great shape for the season, thanks to Kevin Coleman, director of strength and conditioning for Olympic sports at the University of Kansas.
uffering for Olympic sports He worked with the women's basketball team all summer, and said they had shown great improvement in their quickness and mobility.
"Basketball's more of a game of acceleration," Coleman said.
So that's what he focused on. Coleman said he worked to get the players' agility and quickness to a higher level. "I really worked more on the changes of direction,
which is really important," he said.
Coach Marian Washington said she could tell during the year's first practice that Coleman's efforts had paid off. She said her players were strong and intense for all three hours. Coleman said that when he heard those compliments he took pride in doing his job right.
we took price in seeing it. "It's a nice feeling to see that your hard work is appreciated," he said. "As long as I see these athletes receiving results and are happy with what's going on, I can do it all day long."
"Most importantly, the athletes have to want to better themselves, and that's exactly what women's basketball has done," Coleman said. "They want to succeed and they want to get better."
He said he sometimes had to slow down some of the players who had nagging injuries.
players who had begun "For me as a coach, it was exciting because I've got people that are injured who were trying to push themselves to do more," Coleman said.
Senior forward Jaclyn Johnson said that his summer training routine had slimmed her down, preparing her to play the faster style the 'Hawks plan to run this season.
"Jaclyn may be in the best shape she's been in." Washington said.
A strength trainer must have strength, and Coleman certainly has that.
certainly has that. He was a two-time national shot put champion at the University of Nebraska, where he got his masters degree in health education. He was also a weight-lifting alternate for the United States team in the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. Coleman was the strength coach with the Cornhuskers when their football team won two national championships in the early 90s.
Coleman said seeing his athletes succeed on the field is what gives him his greatest thrill. . .

Jayhawk sophomores mature

This season, the nucleus of the Kansas Jayhawks definitely will have a canine feel.
Forwards Nick Collison and Drew Gooden, along with point guard Kirk Hinrich, have shed their freshman puppy labels. Because of last season — when all three routinely set and nearly guided the Jayhawks past top-ranked Duke in the NCAA tournament last March—the three aged in the basketball equivalent of dog years, as opposed to the slower rate of most freshmen.
"We got so much more experience than most freshmen," said Collison, who was third on the team in scoring in his initial campaign. "Because of that, we may feel a lot older than most returning freshmen."
The experience paid off, as Gooden and Collison were named to the Big 12 Conference All-freshmen team, and Hinrich won the team's most improved player award.
Now, the challenge is to retain that knowledge and keep up the frantic pace of a year ago. Unlike last season, during which all three were being led by blind faith, this year all three would know what was coming, Gooden said.
"Last year gave us a great advantage."
sand Gooden. "Now, we know what to expect."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said the biggest thing Gooden had to get adjusted to was the length of the season.
"Drew was just shocked at the end of the year last year how tired he was come tournament time and how everyone else just raised the level of play." Williams said.
Indeed, Gooden faded in the NCAA tournament, as he averaged only six points per game in the two tournament games nearly half of his season average.
Williams promised such declines would

Late Night should heed advice, make skits exciting for fans
It doesn't take a whole lot to keep me entertained. For example, when I actually go to my classes, I usually find my professor's lectures somewhat interesting. Honest.
that's why it baffles me that something like Late Night can bore me to no end. Let's face it, this past Late Night may have reached a new low in entertainment value. It was simply awful.
For those who were fortunate enough to have missed Late Night, allow me to summarize: Women's basketball team jumps around for an entire song. They stop. Quick break into Survivor theme. Women's team dances more. Stops. Survivor. Dance. Stops. Men's team enters, dances. Stops. Survivor. Everybody dances. Stops. Survivor.
Oh, I forgot. Jeff Carey got a haircut! Seriously, 16,000 people sitting in Allen Fieldhouse for hours just to support this team, and they make us watch some guv
Get the picture?
get a haircut? What's the next? Brooke Reeves
get her nails done at midcourt?
I thought about the lack of entertainment at Late Night, and I wondered how I would have done things differently. If this were my world, here's how things would have gone down at Late Night.
Blair Witch Project skit:
Yeah, I know, they did one. But it was weak. My version — three Jayhawks go searching Allen Fieldhouse for... Marlon London! Dramatic peak hits when the lights go out, come back on, and (gasp!) a bundle of twigs are found at midcourt. Inside.. sweet Jesus, no! Are those Marlon's transfer papers??
Interlude: Crimson Girls (they CAN dance).
Considere Theory starring Kirk Hirsch:
The story of how Kirk Hinrich single-handedly kept the Duke Blue Devils on hand in last year's NCAA tournament. The hook of the story is the unbelievable shadow-foul that was called on Hinrich, which took him out of the game.
Interlude: more Crimson Girls.

Interlude: más Crimson Girls, por favor.
Missed Lesson
A quick-paced story, Luke Axtell is wheeled in on a stretcher, suffering from a mystery illness. Doctor Roy cures Luke, and all is well. But wait! This story has an additional surprise happy ending! While
To calm the crowd after the ER drama, we do a Howard Stern spoof. Jeff Bosche, sporting a long-haired wig, sits behind a microphone and tries to convince three Crimson Girls to take their tops off.
Interlude: Crimson Girls (like Jello, there's always room for more Crimson Girls).
Judge Judy:
For this one, we have to fly in super tough Judge Judy herself. In this skit, football players face charges from a soccer player regarding sexual assault. Rather than drawing this case out for eternity, Judge Judy settles the case in nine minutes, doing a service to Jayhawk fans everywhere.
The dramatic conclusion comes when Roy Williams, Kenny Gregory and Drew Gooden march out to mid-court, all decked out in Run DMC gear. I'm talking Adidas everything, shoes with no laces, and lots of gold jewelry. The one time we see dancing that doesn't involve the Crimson Girls, Roy and the guys lead the men's and women's basketball teams in a rip off of Run DMC's classic, "Who's House?"
And of course, this would be the new version of the song, where the answer is, "Roy's House!!!"
Conclusion:
OK, so I'm probably not the guy who should be writing the script for Late Night. But whoever gets the job next year, please, I beg you, make it less painful!

New York awaiting next Subway Series

Two years later, O'Malley drew the wrath of an entire borough by moving the Dodgers from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Eisenhower was soon replaced by JKL, Elvis starting hitting the fried peanut butter sandwiches, and two generations of New York fans waited in vain for a Subway Series to call their own.

Jaguars try to avoid panic against Redskins
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — It's panic time for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The one-time Super Bowl hopefuls don't score much, don't make enough big plays, can't win and, at 2-5 with a four-game losing streak, don't seem anything like a playoff team.
Nobody seems ready to concede the season yet — at least not pub

One bit of hope: Jacksonville was 4-7 in 1996, before making a remarkable run to the AFC title game.
Jacksonville is on its first fourgame losing streak since its 1995 expansion season. The Jaguars have four losses in the AFC Central, with little chance of capturing any tiebreakers should they get back in the playoff picture.
Their loss to Tennessee provided the sharp distinction between a championship-caliber team and everybody else.

Two gold medalists named to hall of fame
INDIANAPOLIS — Olympic gold medalists Chandra Cheeseborough and Arnie Robinson were among four athletes elected to the National Track and Field Hall of Fame. Joining them were two other Olympians — Bill Dellinger and Maren Seidler.
Cheeseborough was a member of Olympic teams in 1976, 1980 and 1984. At the 1984 Los Angeles Games she won gold medals in the 400-meter and 1,800-meter relays and got a silver medal in the individual 400. Robinson won the Olympic long jump in 1976, four years after having won the bronze medal.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Mike Tyson's new medication seems to have him in an upbeat mood, so far.
Tyson snapped at a couple of questions and once mocked opponent Andrew Golota at a news conference yesterday, but he wasn't the glaring, surly presence he's been at past media gatherings.
At a public workout Monday at the Brewster Recreation Center in Detroit, the former undisputed heavyweight champion was downright relaxed.
Tyson claims he does not know what medication he is taking in place of the antidepressant Zoloft, and the people around him aren't saying.
David Sebastian, chairman of the Michigan Boxing Commission, knows what the medication is but said it's up to Tyson to reveal it. Whatever it is, Tyson can fight against Golota on Friday night in the Palace at Auburn Hills while taking it.
"The medication is not performance-enhancing or impairing," Sebastian said. He said he talked to various doctors and they "insured me it was a non-issue."
When Tyson was using Zolof, he was taken off it before fights.

Al Certo, Golota's trainer, said,

takes to kill somebody.
At one point, Golota, who had little say, laughed at something Tyson said.
"He's over there laughing." Tyson said. "This is serious stuff. He won't be laughing Friday night."
As in all Tyson fights, the question of intimidation came up.
"That's his problem," Tyson said. "I don't have anything to do with that."
"I'm always afraid for any fight, this is boxing," said Golota, acknowledging the risks involved every time a boxer steps into the ring.
While Golota, who wore sunglasses throughout the news conference, appeared tight, he displayed humor while sitting in a dressing room waiting for Tyson to appear at the Palace.
Certo. a longtime trainer who also is a tailor in Secaucus, N.J., noted some thread unraveling in the right cuff of Golota's sports jacket.
"It's that cheap suit you wearing," said Certo, adding he could have done a better job.
"You can't make me a fighter, but you can make me a suit." Golota said.
The 10-round fight will be the featured match on a pay-per-view (SET) card beginning a 8 p.m.
The Tyson-Golota match, expected to start about 11:30 p.m., will be immediately preceded by an IBF junior welterweight title defense by Zab Judah of New York against Hector Quiorz of South Calif. Also to be televised is a 10-round lightweight bout between Alex Truijlio of Puerto Rico and Jose Juarez of Mexico, and a six-round women's bout between Muhammad Ali's daughter, Laila, of Los Angeles, and Kendra Lenhart of Lenoir, Teen.

Jayhawks' Smiths feast on competition
By Jason Franchuk
Kansan sportswriter
When Kansas offensive lineman Nick Smith struts around the hotel room in his boxer shorts, his roommate doesn't appreciate it. But Nick has his own gibe for his fellow lineman and travel roommate.
"I can eat more than Bob Smith can," Nick said.
I can eat more than Bob orders. I'm a Nick plays center while Bob plays left guard now, after a recent switch because of another player's injury. They're also dining buddies, eating together at various local restaurants, both having an appetite for hamburgers and for anything else that finds its way to their table.
The two may disagree about who can pound down more ground beef, but the fact is, together they devoured Missouri last Saturday in Kansas' 38-17 victory.
"They played well," said Walt Klinker, Kansas offensive line coach. "The guys were able to step in and cover their assignments."
Nick, a Dallas sophomore, made his first career start in place of injured fifth-year senior Bob Schmidt, who is listed between questionable and probable by Kansas coach Terry Allen for Saturday's 11:30 a.m. game against Colorado.
Bob Smith, typically a tackle, played all but the first series at left guard. He said the switch was troublesome at times because of the different footwork that is required, but he thought the "Smith brothers," as some jokingly call them, had good unity.
"That's the main thing; They have to be able to
work together," Klinker said. "They have to know what the other guy is going to do."
What the two did together was help Kansas amass 219 rushing yards. More importantly, according to both, they kept another Smith — senior quarterback Dylen — from having to pick himself up off the ground. Dylen was sacked only once against the Tigers after suffering 12 sacks against Oklahoma and Kansas State.
Allen joked that the whole situation against Missouri played like an Abbott and Costello skit. Smith and Smith protected Smith from — you guessed it — Missouri's Justin Smith. The Big 12 Conference sack leader a year ago managed only one assisted tackle.
"We felt like we improved a lot in the last week because of how much harder we were working in practice." Bob said. "We also think we can get even better."
better. Considering how much time the two spend together, Bob and Nick said they get along well. Playing side by side is terrific. Rooming is great. Except, said Bob, when Nick roams around in his unmentionables.
"That's a bad sight," Bob said.
Of course, 280-pound Nick feels he has bragging rights over 755-pound Bob at the dinner table. But don't expect newcomer Nick to buy his buddy burgers anytime soon.
"Oh, man, if we started doing that, we'll all go broke." Nick said. "But maybe if we had people buying us burgers, we'd play even harder."

Oklahoma basketball teams have different expectations
By Chris Wristen

Kansas sportwriter
The loss of key players to graduation had opposite effects on the Oklahoma Sooners and the
Oklahoma State Cowboys.
The Sooners lost All- Americans guard Eduardo Najera, a four-year starter, to
Q
graduation, as well as forward Renzi Stone. In response, The Sporting News listed Oklahoma as the 23rd-best team in the country and Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook tabbed the Sooners at No. 11. Most major publications pick the Sooners to finish second in the Big 12 Conference behind Kansas.
Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson said he wasn't surprised by the expectations, even after the loss of Najera.
"When you lose a senior class like we did last year and have people say that you're going to be good again, that's what I'm proud of." Sampson said. "We've been consistently good."
Most of that strength is in the backcourt where Sampson's squad returns its starting guards. Senior three-point specialist Tim Heskett returns, along with sophomore point guard Hollis Price. Junior guard J.R. Raymond will play the two-man as the team's leading scorer.
Sampson said the team needed improved defense from Raymond this year if the Sooners were going to win some games.
"He's a performer, a lights guy," Sampson said. "He has great quickness, is a good ball-handler and passer. But we need J.R, to step forward this year and become more of a defensive stopper."
On the other side of the ball, Oklahoma State is picked as a middle-of-the pack team in the Big 12 and has been absent from any
preseason polls for the first time since 1993.
The reason for the omission likely is that the Cowboys return just

ers, All-Conference forward Desmond Mason and point guard Doug Gottlieb, last year's NCAA leader in assists.
Those experienced players are junior center Fredrik Jonen, sophomore forward Andre Williams and junior center Jason Keep. Between them the three averaged a combined 12.7 points and 12.1 rebounds per game.

not be tolerated this year as he vowed last week he would be tougher on the sophomores than he was last season. That's OK with Gooden, especially considering the Jayhawks have Final Four aspirations.
"Coach has had two seasons in a row with double digit losses," Gooden said. "He's let it go the last two years but not this season."
Kansas Basketball Notes
High Expectations Most preseason magazines are on the bookshelves, and all have a high opinion of Kansas.
The Sporting News ranked the Jayhawks seventh in the nation, Blue Ribbon Magazine has Kansas sixth, and Street & Smith's thinks the Jayhawks are the nation's eight best.
However, both Basketball News and ESPN: The Magazine have Kansas in their four team teams and predict that it will be heading to Indianapolis for the Final Four in March.
Robertson played for the Jayhawks from 1959-59 and last season was on injured reserve with the NBA's Sacramento Kings.
Robertson Gets Knighted The Kansas City Knights have added another former Jayhawk to their roster. According to WHB-AM radio in Kansas City, the Knights have come to contract terms with former Kansas guard Ryan Robertson.
Kansas City recently signed former Kansas forward Nick Bradford to a nonguaranteed contract.
All Quiet on the Recruiting Front The Kansas basketball community remained in a holding pattern as the Jayhawks awaited word on four of their recruits.
That word didn't come yesterday, but Jamal Sampson, a 6-foot 10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., told Insider's Report that he was "50/50" between Kansas and California-Berkley.
Ballard Hangs Around Walk-on guard Brett Ballard continues to practice with the Jayhawks even though he is not yet on the official roster.
Kansas assistant sports information director Mitch Germann said the coaches told Ballard he would practice with the team through this week, and he would know by next week whether he officially would be added to the roster. The Kansas coaches also will know by the end of this week whether they will add any players from this week's open campus tryouts, which finish tomorrow.
Ballard is a junior who played at Hutchinson Community College last season.

Intramural teams begin, finish play

Kansas sportswriter
Kansas intramural sports are in full swing and as many teams are looking for playoff winners, others are just beginning their seasons.
"There was good competition and it was well run," he said.
Graham Moyer, Overland Park freshman and sand volleyball participant, said he enjoyed the fall season.
Sand volleyball and soccer have each completed their seasons and the winners will be posted within the next week at 208 Robinson.
twenty participants competed in a two-person scramble tournament at Alvamar Orchards Golf course to complete the intramural golf season. The scramble format allowed each golfer to tee off and the team could then use the best shot.
Although the flag football playoff season has been hampered by rain delays, Jason Krone, director of intrumurals, said he expected the season to wrap up by Wednesday, Oct. 25th.
The indoor volleyball league will have some different rules this year. Six players will be allowed on the court instead of four, two people will referee instead of one, and new rules will apply to legal-hitting techniques.
"Indoor volleyball always shows more participants," Krone said. "You can always expect an exciting season."
Krone said floor hockey was also making news this intramural season because of a rule change.
"We are trying a new ball in floor hockey, as opposed to a puck." Krone said. "Reason being the new ball does not bounce, which will be good for the league."
This also marks the inaugural season for a women's division in the floor hockey intramural league, and as many as eight women's teams have signed up for the season.
Several other intramural sports are beginning in the upcoming weeks;
Students can sign up for bowling on Monday, Oct. 30; eight-ball pool on Monday, Oct. 23; and racquetball on Monday, Nov. 13.
Krone expects the highest turnout will be for the pre-holiday basketball tournament, the weeks before Thanksgiving break.
"There were about 85 teams in the tournament last year," he said.
Krone said students interested in officiating fall intramural sports could stop by 208 Robinson for more information.

Walk-on runner Jayhawks' fastest

Kansan sportwritter
After his senior year of high school, junior runner Brent Behrens couldn't have expected to be the top men's runner for the Kansas cross country team.
But Behrens overcame the lack
At that point, he wasn't even sure if he would be running cross country and track for a Division I program.

of recruiting interest, walked on to the Kansas cross country and track programs and hasn't looked back.
The Atalissa, Iowa, native almost stayed in his home state for school.
"I was decent in high school, not great, but I wanted to run at a Division I school, and when I visited I got the right feel about Kansas," Behrens said. "I was looking at Iowa, but that was too close to home, but I wanted to get away."
Behrens has come a long way since his first race in seventh grade. Behrens said he tried out for the track team because it was something to do.
His laid-back attitudte escalated into a distinguished high school career at West Branch High School in Atallisa. Behrens was a three-time conference champion in the 3,200 meter race, and he holds school records at West Branch in the 1,600 meter and 3,200 meter races. He was also a member of the 1997 Iowa State
Cross Country Championship Team.
Behrens said he has learned that cross country brought out his competitive side
"I've found that the longer the distance, the more competitive I get," Behrens said. "I like running in a big group of people."
Kansas coach Stanley Redwine said Behrens' performance this season had been remarkable.
"Brent has done an excellent job for us this season." Redwine said. "We gave him a chance to contribute this season, and he's just been getting better and better. Brent's improving day by day, meet by meet."
Behrens got off to a strong start with a fourth-place finish at Kansas' home meet, the Bob Timmons Invitational — and he hasn't tailed off.
Behrens has been the highest- placing Jayhawk the past two meets.
"Brent can determine just how much better he can get," Redwine said. "If he maintains his work ethic, he's got unlimited potential in my mind."
Behrens said he hoped to continue his successful season with a high finish at the Big 12 Conference Championships.
"I'm aiming for all-conference, which is finishing in the Top 15 at the conference championships." he said. "I didn't think that I could get that at the start of the season, but my outlook has changed."
Behrens and his dayhawk teammates have one more week to prepare before heading to Boulder, Colo., on Saturday. Oct. 28 for the Big 12 Championships.
Competitive team means captain sees less playing time

Soccer midfielder remains positive

Senior midfielder Katie Lents needed only one minute and thirty-three seconds to score a goal against Weber State on Sep. 5, 1999, but her first goal this season didn't come until Sunday, when the Jayhawks played the season's 16th game against Texas in Austin, Texas.
The reason is simple: She hasn't played many minutes this season.
Katie Lents, senior midfielder, passes the ball downfield during a scrimmage against Baker. Lents, a co-captain, scored her first apail this season against Texas Sunday. Photo by Aaron Lindberg/KANSAN
Lents, the team's co-captain, played every game last year, but her appearance has been limited in nine games, including only one start, because of increased competition within the team.
"I know I only have a little bit of time," she said. "I know I don't get to start and get to play very much. It's really discouraging."
Despite the limited opportunities, the Overland Park native remains an emotional leader and contributes many things to the Javhawks.
"It's frustrating, but I'm the captain this year," she said. "So I have to keep my head up, keep cheering everybody else on. I'm a team player, and as long as people out there on the field doing their job and doing right stuff, I'm fine."
"She's a very good leader on and off the field," Francis said. "A lot of games she came in, I think, she raised the level of intensity."
Coach Mark Francis said Lents was a good captain and had done a great job in the games she played.
Lents attributed the success as a
reserve to her involvement in the game.
"I don't just sit on the bench and talk to my friends about what was going on the week," she said. "I keep my stuff involved in the game and look what's going on, what's going right, what's going wrong. And once you get a chance, you know how to improve it."
The 5-foot-6-inch captain's best attribute has been described as the ability to make people laugh.
"She kind of has timing," said assistant coach Donna Holyman.
Lents said that characteristic had always helped her be a good leader.
"I've just been really outgoing," she said. "I remember just being a leader just like when I was in high school. I think a lot of people find it easy to talk to me."

Maybe now is the time Kansas needs a plaver like her. Having

"I have to start here, make sure we all get our work done on the field and practice," she said. "And hopefully, we can just carry it on the game."

Jayhawks want to end losing streak
By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
The Kansas volleyball team hopes that tonight will be the skid snapper.
The Jayhawks will take on the Oklahoma Sooners at 7 p.m. in the Horesi Family Athletic Center in a match that, for the winner, will end a five-game losing streak while sending the loser into a six-skid game.

game Jake
The Jayhawks are 11-7, 2-7 in the Big 12 Conference, while the Sooners stand 6-11, 1-8. Both teams have dropped their last five matches and are looking for a turn-around win.
The Jayhawks have won the last four matches against the Sooners, the last win coming at home in five games. However, Oklahoma leads the all-time series with Kansas 37-14, and the two teams are tied at 4-4 since the formation of the Big 12.
both teams' last win came against Iowa State, which still stands winless in the conference.
"I'm sure they're wanting to get on track and get some things turned around," coach Ray Bechard said. "This match is very important to both of us."
Nancy Bell, senior outside hitter,
said Oklahoma was a quality team.
"Their record is not indicative of how well they have played," she said. "We can't look past any teams

The Sooners' are lead by Cathy Cook, a senior middle blocker who averages 4.59 kills per game and leads the team with eight solo blocks.
"Cathy Cook, their middle blocker, is one of the best in the Big 12," Bechard said. "Their team is pretty physical."
In preparation for the physicality of this game, Bechard made sure his team used this past weekend — its first weekend off this season — to rest and recuperate after 18 matches so far. However, the team's weekend off meant no volleyball game would be presented before Late Night with Roy Williams, as it has been in the past
conference team to play in the middle of the season and on a Friday night," Bechard said. "And we needed a couple of days off. We really encouraged them to rest up and get reenergized."

Along with rejuvenated players, Beachard said he hoped tonight could mark the beginning of a new season for the Jayhawks.
"It's really difficult to find a non-
"Even though this match finishes our first half of the conference, we're looking at this as a start for a new season," he said. "We're hoping this will be a turnaround."
Bell agreed.
"I think we have a great opportunity," Bell said. "If we play well to come away with a win."

Mets breeze past Cardinals 7-0
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The St. Louis Cardinals, front runners all season, are out of the postseason because they had to play catchup.
The New York Mets' three-run first inning in Monday night's game clinched the pennant in a 7-0 victory against the National League Central champions. In the opening inning of the five games, the Mets scored a total of 12 runs on 14 hits with six walks in the five games.
"It's important to get ahead, and they did it," said pitching coach Dave Duncan. "We didn't pitch well. It happens sometimes. It's too bad."
During the regular season, the first inning was the best for the Cardinals, who outscored their opponents 147-90. The trend continued in the division series, when they opened with a six-run first in game 1 against Gree Maddux.
But after outscoring the Braves 10-3 in the first during a three-game sweep, they managed only four runs in five games in the National League championship series. Thus, the springboard became a nightmare.
The Cardinals scored two runs in the first against Rick Reed in game 3, an eventual 8-2 victory that cut the Mets' series lead to 2-1.
In games 4 and 5, St. Louis allowed seven runs in the first.
Five of the first six Mets doubled in a four-run
first in game 4 against Kle, and six of the first seven Mets reached in the first inning of game 5 as New York took a 3-0 lead.
Hentgen blamed location.
"Unless you throw 100 mph,
it's always location." Hentgen
Mets
said. "I walked a lot of guys and had the count in hitters' favors. When you spot a guy like Mike Hampton three runs, it's tough."
The Cardinals made 10 errors in eight postseason games and didn't help themselves with more uncharacteristic fielding lapses.
Catcher Carlos Hernandez tried to catch Mets lead offitter hitter Timo Perez stealing and bounced his throw into center field. First baseman Will Clark dropped a double-play relay after second baseman
Fernando Vina mishandled Todd Zeile's grounder.
"We've been a good defensive team all year," Vina said. "That's the way the game is. Some days you make some tough errors, some days you play real well."
Two errors, one throwing and one fielding, by third baseman Fernando Tatis led to two insurance runs in the sixth inning of game 4, a 10-6 victory.
"I think they've proved the course of the season and the postseason we're a very good defensive club," manager Tony La Russa said. "I'll take our two guys up the middle with anybody."
The score was 60 after the Mets chased Hentgen in the fourth, and the hole seemed deeper given the Cardinals' season-long weakness against left-hand pitching. La Russa usually fields a lineup with five left-handed hitters and they were 17-23 against lefties with a 255 average, 21 points lower than their average against right-handers.
"In a short series, it comes down to pitching," said Mark McGwire, who grounded out in the ninth as a pinch hitter for Edmonds. "They shut us down."
Yankees win American League series
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — David Justice's home run soared toward the outfield bleachers, and New York will have its Subway Series.
Fighting off weeks of doubts, the New York Yankees followed the Mets into the World Series, rallying from a four-run deficit to beat the Seattle Mariners 9-7 last night and win the American League championship series 4-2.
Despite his worst October outing, Orlando Hernandez lasted seven innings and became the first pitcher ever to go 8-0 in postseason play.
With Seattle ahead 4-3 in the seventh inning, Justice lined a pitch from Arthur Rhodes into the right-field upper deck for a three-run homer. Paul O'Neill added a two-run single and Jose Vizcaino, whose infield single started the inning, hit a sacrifice fly for a 9-4 lead.
Alex Rodriguez, in perhaps his final game for the Mariners, homed leading off the eighth and Hernandez left after a walk.
Mariano Rivera relieved and allowed an RBI double to John Olerud, then a two-run double by
Mark McLemore that hit off first base bag as two more runs scored, ending his postseason scoreless streak at 33 1-3 innings over three years.
But Rivera held on in the ninth as the Yankees won their record 37th American League pennant and their third in a row.

series at Shea
Stadium, which is
about 8 miles
away, the final out of the Yankees' tense season ended when Edgar Martinez, 9-for-11 against Rivera in his career, grounded to shortstop with a runner on.
A half century after Willie, Mickey and the Duke dominated baseball, it will be Bernie, Benny and El Duque at Yankee Stadium starting Saturday night.
Seattle stormed to a 4-10 lead against the two-time defending World Series champions, getting consecutive RBI doubles from Alex Rodriguez and Martinez in the
first, and a two-run, upper-deck homer from light-hitting Carlos Guillen in the fourth.
But John Halama, a Brooklynite who blanked the Yankees for six innings in Game 2, was chased in the third, when Jorge Posada hit a two-run double and Paul O'Neill, fighting the biggest batting slump of his life, singled in a run on the next pitch.
Hernandez and Mariners reliever Brett Tomko both escaped jams in the middle innings, getting defensive help from their All-Star short-stops, Rodriguez for Seattle and Derek Jeter for New York.
And then the game turned in a 39-minute seventh inning — roughly the time it takes to go from Yankee Stadium to Shea, if the change of trains at Grand Central Terminal goes smoothly.
Tomko didn't allow a hit in two 2-3 innings, but he threw 51 pitches, a high amount for a reliever, and Jose Paniagua relieved to start the seventh.
Vizcaino, one of the seven players on the postseason roster the Yankees added during the season in an effort to stay on top, started the inning with a perfectly placed
single in the hole between first and second base.
Second baseman Mark McLemore got to it, but his throw from the right field grass was just a little too late.
Chuck Knoblauch sacrificed him to second and Jeter singled just between Rodriguez, his rival and pal who had four of Seattle's 10 hits, and Guillen at third.
Seattle manager Lou Pinelli,
who like Rodriguez may have
spent his final night in a Mariners
uniform, then brought in Rhodes.
In Game 2, the Yankees trailed 1-0 and been shut out for 21 innings when Justice doubled off Rhodes, sparking a seven-run eighth inning that gave New York a 7-1 win and tied the series.
In that game, umpires angered Justice by ruling he didn't check a swing on a 1-1 pitch.
This time, he got the call on a close 2-1 pitch.
Fans were on their feet, even Mayor Rudolph Giuliani applauding with his glove-covered hands. The upper deck swayed back and forth, and Justice sent the ball on an arc, a no-doubt homer from the moment he hit it.

Debate targets undecided voters
The Associated Press
ST.LOUIS — Three weeks from judgment at the polls, Al Gore and George W. Bush tried to gain the favor of crucial uncommitted voters last night in the third and last of their presidential debates.
The night was beginning in silence, a moment of tribute to Gov. Mel Carnahan of Missouri, killed in an airplane crash the night before as he campaigned for the Senate.
The presidential nominees and their voter-questioners were pausing in Carnahan's memory before the climactic 90-minute debate on the campus of Washington University.
While the television audiences for this year's debates have not matched those of past presidential campaigns about 37.6 million saw the debate last Wednesday night — Bush and Gore were still playing to more people than would watch them again before the election.
After two debates without decisive moments, it was a chance perhaps to break out of the virtual deadlock that
pollsters see them in now.
concentrating as the campaign days dwindle toward Tuesday, Nov. 7. In the latest national polls on issues that have been argued in the debates, Gore has

the advantage on the economy, health care and education, while Bush is preferred on the question of trust and honesty. Bush also has a narrow edge on leadership skill and likability.
Along with those topics and traits, there were crises abroad for the debaters to deal with — the Israeli-Palestinian strife that sent President Clinton to an emergency summit in Egypt, which ended with the two sides agreeing to try to end 20 days of violence, and the terrorist attack on the destroyer USS Cole at a refueling stop in Yemen, which killed 17 sailors.
The debate finale was in a different format, with the audience, rather than the moderator, Jim Lehrer of PBS, putting most of the questions to the candidates. The potential questioners were voters from the St. Louis area, selected by the Gallup organization as uncommitted between Bush and Gore. They were among about 600 people in the debate theater.
The exclusion of minor candidates from the two-way debate led to another court challenge, by Ralph Nader, the Green Party nominee, who argued that his rights were violated when he was ushered out of the Boston debate even though he had been given a ticket.
Nader and Reform Party candidate Pat Buchanan both have sued the commission sponsors for keeping them out under a rule that excludes candidates who do not have at least 15 percent support in the national public opinion polls. Both Nader and Buchanan are far short of that.

GOLDMAN, Mo. — Gov. Mel Carnahan's death in the crash of a small plane, piloted by his son, plunged Missouri into mourning for the beloved politician yesterday and cut short one of the hardest-fought Senate races in the nation.
The cause of the crash was not immediately known, and National Transportation Safety Board members combed the crash site throughout the day yesterday. The bodies remained in the wreckage.
The twin-engine plane went down Monday night in rainy, foggy weather south of St. Louis on the way to a campaign rally, killing the 66-year-old Carnahan, his 44-year-old son Roger and an aide, Chris Sifford. 37. No one else was on board.
Mourners gathered at the governor's mansion in Jefferson City shortly after daybreak as the news spread.
"He did so much for our state," said Susie Shultz, a state employee who brought red chrysanthemums. "Mel Carnahan was the education man. He was for the right things."
The two-term Democrat was locked in a tight and sometimes bitter Senate race with Republican Sen. John Ashcroft, who suspended campaign advertising and other operations after the crash.
"Obviously this is not a time for politics. This is a time for the state to come together," Aschroca said.
"Gov. Carnahan served the people of Missouri with dignity and honor for more than four decades. I will remember him and all of Missouri will remember him for that exemplary public service and for his dedication to his family, as a husband, as a father and as a grandfather."
There was talk of postponing the third presidential debate between Vice President Al Gore and Texas Gov, George W. Bush in St. Louis last night. Carnahan's wife, Jean, insisted it go on. She said her husband would have wanted it that way.
In a statement, Bush praised Carnahan as "a thoughtful, distinguished man who was dedicated to quality education and excellence in public service." Gore, who wore a black ribbon in his jacket, said he

was deeply saddened and hailed Carrahan's work on education and other issues.
In 1988, Carnahan was elected lieutenant governor. Four years later, he won the governor's office in a landslide and was re-elected in 1996. He was barred by state law from seeking a third consecutive term.

Congress approves tribal land settlement
Santo Domingo Pueblos consider territory sacred, pledge not to build casinos
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Congress has approved giving a New Mexico Native-American tribe $23 million and about 4,600 acres to settle lawsuits concerning land the tribe claimed under a grant from the king of Spain more than 300 years ago.
The Santo Domingo Pueblo argued that it was the rightful owner of 52,000 acres of federal, state and private land near its reservation between Albuquerque and Santa Fe in northern New Mexico. The area included shrines and other religious sites, which are considered sacred by the 4,600-member tribe.
"I hope we have finally come to an end on this long, long discussion of the land deal."
The House approved the settlement on a voice

vote yesterday, sending it to the White House for President Clinton's signature. The Senate approved the deal earlier this month.
"I hope we have finally come to an end on this long, long, long discussion of the land deal," said Benny Atencio, the tribe's secretary and representative.
The deal, which does not require private landowners to sell or give their property to the tribe, also gives the tribe the option to use $3.7 million of the settlement money to buy 7,355 acres of

National Forest Service land in the disputed area. That plot, and the 4,577 acres of Bureau of Land Management land the tribe will receive, will be used mainly for religious purposes, Atencio can
"We're glad that some of our land will be returned back to us, even though we will have to pay for it." Atencio said.
The Santo Domingo Pueblo will not build casinos on any of the land, Atencio said.
The Santo Domingo Pueblo's land claim stemmed from two transactions: a 1689 land grant from the king of Spain for the tribe's reservation and the tribe's 1748 purchase of a neighboring tract called the Diego Gallegos grant. Congress agreed to honor such land grants in 1858 in a law finalizing U.S. control of the Southwest after the war with Mexico.

Lead could explain Beethoven's ailments
ARGONNE, III. — An analysis of a lock of Ludwig wigan Beethoven's hair shows lead poisoning could explain the erratic genius' lifelong ailments, his strange behavior, his death and maybe even his deafness.
The Associated Press
inkerpie. The Health Research Institute scientists said that Beethoven's lead exposure came as an adult, but that the source of the lead was unclear, though one possibility was the mineral water he swam in and drank during his stays at spas.
Beethoven was prone to towering rages, and sometimes had the look of a wild animal, with his long hair unkempt and his appearance filthy.
The four-year analysis of the hair — apparently snipped after the composer's death at age 56 in 1827 — has turned up a concentration of lead 100 times the levels commonly found in people today, according to researchers at the Health Research Institute in suburban Chicago, where the hair was tested.
That means it is all but certain that the composer suffered from lead poisoning, also known as plumbism, the researchers said.
"If you asked friends, they'd say he could be gruff but he had a great sense of humor." Meredith said. "Others say he was unpredictable — very erratic behavior — that you'd never know what to expect when you'd visit him."
Lead poisoning may also explain what some described as dramatic mood swings on Beethoven's part.
the researcher's said:
"It was a surprise but it stood out like a sore thumb in the analysis," said William Walsh, director of the institute's Beethoven research project.
Scientists initially searched for mercury, a common treatment for syphilis in Beethoven's day. The absence of mercury supports the recent consensus of scholars who believe Beethoven did not have syphilis.
He said he hoped further testing would be done on other locks of hair from the Beethoven house in Bonn, Germany, which has several strands that were taken five or more years before he died.
in rare cases, lead poisoning causes deafness, but scientists remain unsure if that was what caused Beethoven's hearing loss.
"So that's really the million-dollar question," said William Meredith, director of the Center for Beethoven Studies at San Jose State University.

Floods threaten historic Italian sites
The Associated Press
PIACENZA, Italy — Italy hurried more than 15,000 people from the path of two raging rivers yesterday as flood waters that brought death in Alpine towns bore down on the medieval villages and cities of the northern Italian plains.
resterday, emergency crews evacuated whole villages in the paths of the Po, Italy's longest river, and the Ticino that feeds into it from the Alps.
"Even those who were reluctant to leave their homes, like the elderly, eventually were convinced," said the Rev. Pier Luigi Rossi, one of a few people still in the riverside village of San Rocco al Porto yesterday afternoon.
water was climbing within inches of the sandbags lining the Po, a few steps from Rossi's
The death toll in Italy and Switzerland rose to 25, with the mud-caked bodies of a 1-year-old Italian boy and a woman believed to be his mother among the latest uncovered. A total of 21 people in the two countries were missing and feared dead.
The Po divides the rich agricultural regions of Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, emptying into the lagoons of Venice. Yesterday, it hit its highest level in at least a half-century; its height at Piacenza was the highest ever recorded there.
The Po had already burst its banks at some points. By last night, the flood crest was passing the old trade town of Piacenza, home to columned Romanesque churches and a Botticelli painting*

While there has been some flooding of churches, where much of Italy's cultural patrimony is
In both countries authorities said overall damage would be in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Officials were thinking of opening upstream dikes to ease the threat to communities downstream, said Nerio Nesi, public works minister.
"We are in a state of anxiety, of high emergency," Nesi told reporters, adding, "The situation now could become very dangerous."
WHO SAYS HALLOWEEN IS JUST FOR KIDS?
Along the Ticino, water lapped at the third floors of evacuated palazzos in the Roman-era Lombard town of Pavia. Firefighters ferried food and clean water to the few holdouts who refused to leave.

The floods and landslides started Saturday in southern Switzerland and northern Italy after days of pounding rain. Flood water roared out of the Alps and brought Lake Maggiore, on the Swiss-Italian border, to its highest level in 160 years.
Ebola claims 37 in Uganda; more likely infected
"We are in a state of anxiety, of high emergency. The situation now could become very dangerous."
The Associated Press
GULU, Uganda — Dressed in surgical gowns, flimsy masks and knee-high rubber boots, the nurses at Locar Hospital know that with each day that passes they have a greater chance of becoming infected with the deadly Ebola virus.
One doctor and two nurses were among the 37 who have died so far from the terrifying hemorrhagic fever that can be passed through a simple handshake — including two more victims who died Tuesday. And with 10 more suspected cases identified each day, their workload will only increase.
Okat Lokach, acting director of health services for Gulu district, said the outbreak has so far been traced to a housewife who died around Sept. 7. She was buried according to local tradition, which involves the ritual cleansing of the dead by family and friends. The next two victims were her daughter and mother.
Other health workers have fanned out across the countryside, where officials suspect Ebola has already infected more than 81 people.
Other mourners returned to their villages, fell ill and infected their friends and family. It wasn't until Oct. 7 that the first case was seen in a hospital. But Lokach said the search for who infected the housewife was still on, and the disease may have surfaced even earlier.
There is no blood test for Ebola, and a case can be confirmed only through sophisticated blood analysis requiring special equipment not available in Uganda. Health workers have begun quarantining anyone complaining of flu-like symptoms, diarrhea or vomiting, the earliest signs of exposure. Some 90 percent of confirmed Ebola victims die.

Amini halls may pay higher rates
By J.D. McKee
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some scholarship hall residents are enjoying a higher quality of living, but they are paying the same fees as students in less-equipped scholarship halls — and the discrepancy has some people crying foul.
The All Scholarship Hall Council decided Tuesday night to recommend to the Student Housing Advisory Board that the two Amini
Scholarship halls — K.K. Amini for men and Margaret Amini for women — pay a higher rate than the other halls. K.K. Amini opened in 1992, and Margaret Amini opened this fall.
The Student Housing Advisory Board will discuss the recommendation at its meeting today.
The council recommended that Amini residents pay $7 more next
SCHOLARSHIP HALL RATES
year than residents in other scholarship halls,
with another $57 increase the next year.
What happened? The All Scholarship Hall Council voted to recommend to the Student Housing Advisory Board that the two Amihi Scholarship halls pay higher room and board than the other scholarship halls. What it means: Residents of the Amihi halls may have to pay $57 more next year than residents in other scholarship halls, with another $57 increase the next year. What's next: The council will forward its recommendation to the advisory board for discussion at its meeting today.
Alicia Ellingson, vice president of the council, said the increases for the Ambri halls were called for because the two facilities were newer, had more amenities and were more expensive to maintain.
receive funding from the Elizabeth M. Watkins Trust Fund. Women in those halls pay $742 per year, compared to the $2,794 the other eight halls pay per year. Proposals at Tuesday's meeting would have increased those rates to $780 and $2,908.
"They have air-conditioning, and not all the halls have that," said Ellison, Milford, Neb., junior. "They have cable in their rooms and ports for individual Internet access in every room."
Those proposals were rejected, however, because some members weren't sure the proposed fee hikes accurately reflected increased inflation rates and cost of natural gas, which were cited as reasons for increasing the rates.
The council said extra expenses in the Amira halls amounted to about $170 more per person than the expenses at other scholarship halls, not including Miller and Watkins, which
The Amini halls have four washers and four dryers a piece, and each suite has its own bathroom, making the water bill higher in those halls.
In contrast, Douthart Scholarship Hall has only two washers and two dryers. Ellingson lives there and said that something had been wrong with at least one of the washers and dryers since the semester started.
"People have had to take laundry to laundromats or friends' apartments," she said.
Stephenson and Pearson Scholarship halls don't have air-conditioning.
Wilbur Nether, who lives in Stephenson, said he didn't favor paying a reduced fee in exchange for not having air-conditioning.
"Paying less is paltry compensation," said Nether, Plano, Texas, sophomore.
Diana Robertson, associate director of student housing, said it wasn't possible to install air-conditioning in the two halls now because the infrastructure was outdated and wouldn't support it.

Forbes publisher pushes technology industry jobs
By Jason Krall
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Bright and talented young people will continue to be in high demand as the information technology industry continues to grow, Forbes magazine publisher Rich Karlagaard told University of Kansas students last night.
Sporting white tennis shoes and a blue sport coat, the journalist and Internet entrepreneur told students to seek jobs with young technology companies instead of large corporations upon graduating
"Let them treat you with the dignity and respect you deserve," he said. "They really need you."
Karlgaard's lecture was part of the Anderson Chandler Lecture Series, spon
sored by the School of Business. Karlgaard impressed the packed auditorium in Budig Hall with examples of new technologies that will hit the consumer market in the near future. Some companies are experimenting with fiber optics that can deliver 800 trillion bits of memory per second, making possible space age technologies like
in-home hologram displays for entertainment and even personal communication, he said.
"It won't be in Radio Shack in time for Christmas," he said. "But this stuff exists. It's going to take a little while to roll out."
The drop in information technology stock prices in April doesn't signal an end to the boom of Internet and technology start-up companies that defined the market in the four years before that, Karlagaard said. In fact, cash for young innovators will become more plentiful in the new economy. Venture capital has increased 50-fold in the last 10 years, and should reach $1 trillion globally in the next 10, he said.
"Your opportunities going forward
are much more likely to be in the entrepreneurial sector than in the incumbent companies," he said.
Technology will become more and more important in industries like dynamic pricing, Karlagaard said, which had been pioneered by online companies like priceline.com. One innovation will make it possible for telephone to find the cheapest long distance
service for each individual call within seconds

Penny pinchers Students budget for necessities, pleasures
By Meghan Beinum
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Elijah Moore knew things were bad when he got down to one box of macaroni, one bag of Ramen noodles and his car was broken down.
To make matters worse, all the money he had was being saved for rent.
VIRGINIA
What can a poor college student do? Moore, Dodge City junior, said his money-saving ventures started with his trips to the grocery store, where he bought whatever was cheapest.
"Usually, I buy the Hy-Vee generic brand," Moore said. "I eat oven-baked pizzas — the ones that are a buck a piece. I have those for lunch everyday. And mac and cheese. I have that a lot because it's a dollar a box."
Moore said he was in such a financial pinch that he was thinking about selling plasma again like he did his freshman year. The only thing stopping him, he said, was the fact that he needed his car to get to the place he sells plasma. But he needs the money from selling plasma to fix his car.
"I just grin and bear it," Moore said. "I plan ahead, budget myself, bum money from people and promise to pay them back when I can."
Although Moore receives financial aid and has student loans, the money he gets is barely enough to keep him going. Moore said that to make more money he would have to work full time — and just isn't an option.
Moore is not alone. Many KU students struggle with paying for living expenses, food and tuition. Add a beer or two at the bars or the expenses of some other form of stress-relieving entertainment, and many students are rolling in it — debt, that is.
Robert Baker, a consumer credit counselor for the Lawrence area, said it wasn't unusual for him to see college graduates with $20,000 to $30,000 in student loan and credit card debt.
Money for college has to come from somewhere, and sometimes students are surprised at how much college can cost.

Brenda Maigaard, associate director for the office of student financial aid, said the average cost for an instate undergraduate student at the University of Kansas was $10,982 a year. Fifty-one percent of students in 1999 received grants, loans or work study to help pay for school.
Katie McCloskey, Atchison junior,
receives financial aid, but even that
money combined with her $40 to $150
per week income at her 30-hour-a-
week job as a waitress isn't always
enough money to get her through the
month.
To save money, McCloskey started inventing cheap dinner delicacies.
"Saltines and cheese — shredded cheese melted in the microwave."
She said, "Kind of like nachos, but better."
But McCloskey admitted that the money she saved on food is usually spent in other places. Though she tries to hide her credit cards, sometimes the cravings for spending gets the better of her.

Plasma donors often in the red
Physician urges students to be aware of dangers

Bryce Richardson was happy to donate plasma. It saves lives, and it pays well.
"I needed money, so I donated twice," said the Prairie Village junior about donating during his freshman year. "I got $20 each time. I think more people should give. It's not that bad, especially if you need the money."
October is National Plasma Donor Appreciation month. But Randall Rock, chief of staff at Warkins Memorial Health Center, warned students that the money they make might not be worth the health problems and medical

Senate proposes to pay $1,500 audio visual fee
Student organizations may get to use audio visual equipment for free after the Student Senate Finance Committee approved legislation that would change the procedure for renting the Kansas Union's equipment.
Currently, student groups must pay to rent items such as portable sound systems, televisions and VCRs for events they sponsor at the Union. Under the new proposal, Senate will pay an annual $1,500 fee to cover those costs and student organizations will be able to use the equipment for free.
The bill must be approved by Senate at its next meeting Wednesday.
In other business, the University Affairs and Student Rights committees passed a resolution requesting the Parking Board to grant "two-for-one" parking permits for residents of Stouffel Place and Sunflower apartments.
Stouffer Place provides on-campus housing for students who are married or single parents. Sunflower apartments provides housing for faculty and graduate teaching assistants.
Bills to finance the Center for Community Outreach, the Sketch Comedy Organization and Colors of KU also were approved by Senate committees.

Engineering professor receives NASA award
Glenn Prescott, professor of electrical engineering and computer science, was awarded the NASA Special Service Award for his involvement in establishing the NASA Earth Science Enterprise Advanced Information System Technology program.
The program annually awards up to $15 million to researchers whose work helps NASA's Earth Science Enterprise to better understand changes to global environment from natural and human activities. Prescott worked for the enterprise from May 1999 to mid-August 2000.
Prasad Gogineni, distinguished professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences, said his colleague was a worthy recipient of the NASA honor.
"It has been a pleasure working with him; he's an excellent researcher as well as teacher and I'm glad to call him a colleague," he said. "He's always done more than what is expected of him. He did that at NASA and too, and that's what got him the award."
Prescott also received the Terra Award, which is one of the highest honors given by NASA.

Professor recommends teachers in the field
A school district classroom setting better prepare students to apply concepts learned in college to careers in teaching.
That's the message Nona Tullefon, the 2000 Gene A. Budig teaching professor, will present in a speech today at 3:30 p.m. at 150 Joseph R. Pearson Hall.
Tollefson, professor of education, is proposing that the School of Education integrate more of students' time to the school district setting.
Tollefson's recommendation stems from research she has done with KU graduate students and Lawrence and Kansas City, Kan., teachers. She will summarize experimental findings from a program introduced by the KU Professional Development Schools Alliance.
Tollefson has been part of the KU faculty since 1967. Her primary research interests include classroom assessments, student motivation, program evaluation and teacher preparation.
The Gene A. Budig teaching professorship is awarded to a person in the

Housing hearing moved to meeting on Nov. 1
The controversial housing ordinance that would reduce from four to two the number of unrelated people who can live in a single-family home will be the subject of a special hearing Wednesday, Nov. 1.
The proposal was originally scheduled for the Wednesday, Oct. 25, monthly meeting of the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission. Because of interest from students, landlords, neighborhood residents and other renters, the topic was moved to a special meeting at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 1 at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St.
The proposed ordinance would change the definition of family, thus limiting the number of unrelated people who can live in single-family neighborhoods.
Holly Krebs, Student Senate Rights Committee chairwoman, said Senate leaders were working to get as many students at the meeting as possible.
"On one hand, we're somewhat disappointed with the change because we've been telling people Oct. 25 for a month," she said. "But we're glad they're recognizing that it's important."

Scientists baffled by dead sharks on beaches
PANAMA CITY, Fla. — Hundreds of dead sharks have been washing up on beaches along the Gulf of Mexico, and officials are baffled by what is causing their deaths.
"We really have no idea," said Jack Mobley, a wildlife biologist at Tyndall Air Force Base, where about 50 sharks, mostly blacktips, have washed up.
Officials estimate between 200 and 300 sharks have died. Traces of blood reported on nostrils and gills of some sharks suggests an infection might be the culprit, said Mike Brim, an ecologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The sharks, which were up to 5 feet long, started showing up Monday in waters off the Florida Panhandle.

Dow drops 400 points, recovers
NEW YORK — Stocks dropped sharply in volatile trading yesterday, slicing more than 400 points off the Dow Jones industrials before bargain hunters moved in and helped the market recover most of its losses.
The Associated Press
Investor despair about a generally bleak earnings outlook brought the Dow to its first finish below 10,000 since March 14, although the blue chips managed to regain more than 300 points of their early loss. The tech-focused Nasdaq composite index also ended the day with a loss, but it also rebounded smartly from its lows for the day.
"I think we are near the bottom, but this is a bottom that's going to need some credibility," said Brian Belski, a fundamental market strategist at U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray, who also bargain hunting, not any resolution of market problems, was responsible for the upturn. "There are still doubts about earnings growth rates and there are going to be doubts about the rally and reversal today."
The Dow closed down 114.69 at 9,975.02, according to preliminary calculations, largely because
of a huge drop in IBM. An earlier decline of more than 433 points sent the blue chip index to its lowest intraday trading level since March 24, 1999.
The Nasdaq fell 42.58 to 3,171.40, bobbing in and out of positive territory after rebounding from a nearly 188-point slide in the first hour. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was down 7.86 to 1,342.11, having recovered from an early drop of 44 points.
Market activity wasn't expected to end with the close of regular trading. With the third-quarter earnings season at its peak, investors were waiting for results from Microsoft and Apple Computer.
Declining issues outnumbered advances by about three to one on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume was 1.17 billion shares, well ahead of the 906.67 million shares Tuesday.
ON THE RECORD
The market opened on news that consumer prices jumped 0.5 percent in September, the biggest advance since June, as energy prices rebounded sharply. The increase renewed fears that the Federal Reserve would keep interest rates unchanged, rather than lowering them, at its next meeting in November.

Lack of weather pattern makes predictions difficult
By Nathan Dayani Special to the Kansan
While KU students, faculty and staff prepare to combat the heating cost hike this winter, they might have to reset their thermometers on a day-to-day basis as well.
This year's lack of two major climatic patterns. El Niño and La Niña, will probably make it difficult for scientists to predict the weather.
David Braaten, professor of physics and astronomy, said scientists observed these natural weather patterns to help them make predictions. During the past few years, the patterns have helped scientists make accurate predictions.
"In the past, when we've had an El Niño or La Niña, these predictions have been pretty good because these features tend to have a strong statistical relationship to certain climatic patterns," Braaten said.
Last year, scientists predicted that La Niña would bring a warmer and drier winter. Braaten said.
Cody Walters, Onaga senior, said those predictions were accurate.
"It seemed like it has been a lot more mild than in years past," he said. "I didn't mind the temperature, but I wanted more snowfall to make it feel like a real winter."
However, this season's weather will be difficult to predict, Braaten said.
"Right now, neither of those conditions — no La Niña, no El Niño — is going on," he said. "Therefore, it's much more uncertain in terms of making these climate predictions."
Zack Lerner, Prairie Village junior, said he thought that one of the few predictable characteristics of Kansas weather was its unpredictability.
weather was no problem.
"I've lived in Kansas for 20 years," he said. "For the first 10 years of my life, it snowed every winter, and there was always a big snow. But for the last 10 years, you never know what's going to happen. The variance is unpredictable."
Lerner recalled a blizzard five years ago in the Kansas City area, which knocked power out for three days and was accompanied by a 50-degree change.
Braaten said predicting the winter weather would be a challenge.
"The view of the community — the atmospheric science community — is that these are really tough times to forecast when there isn't an El Niño or La Niña." Braaten said.

KU students save, scrimp to avoid debt
Continued from page 1A
"I do get a little crazy sometimes," McCloskey said. "And my roommates have threatened to limit my privileges at the Gap, but for the most part, I do OK."
The secret, she said, was to prioritize, even if the priorities were a little strange.
"Rent comes first, water bills, stuff like that," she said. "I know I've lost control when I spend my food money on beer."
Baker said many students struggled with budgeting so they would have money for necessities as well as entertainment items such as beer.
He said it was important for students to make a budget of what it costs to live and then to not spend more than the budgeted amount.
Students can budget, and they can scrimp — but sometimes there is just no money left. Or, there is just that one dollar.
McCloskey said if she had one dollar left, she would spend it on something she enjoyed.
"I would save it until Tuesday and buy a bottle of beer at The Crossing," she said. "If I had $2. I'd wait until Thursday and buy a pitcher."

BUDGETING TIPS FOR STUDENTS
1. Estimate your available income including savings, financial aid, money earned from jobs and financial help from parents or spouses.
2. Estimate expenses including tuition, school fees, board, transportation and personal expenses.
3. Keep a record of your actual expenses in a notebook or ledger. Try listing expenses by categories.
4. Plan your budget. Forms for this, as well as more in-depth budgeting information, can be obtained at the Office of Student Financial Aid.

Invest early, retire rich and be happy
By the headline, you might suspect this column would be long, complex and require so much space that the worthy Free for All section be postponed today. But it's not. The simple fact is that the United States is enjoying unparalleled prosperity that presents more opportunities than our forefathers could have imagined. Today, it is possible for the average college graduate to realize phenomenal financial success.
When you graduate, you can plan on retiring with more than $1 million. Time and compounding interest make this millionaire mission possible. As a young adult, the recent college grad has
more time than older investors to reap the benefits of compounding interest. Sooner, not later, is the time to think about retirement, especially because our generation probably will live longer and require more retirement savings.
Three recent KU grads — Sarah, Gina and Matt — each invest part of their paychecks in a Roth
Scott Kaiser columnist opinionkansan.com
Individual Retirement Account, Sarah will retire at age 65 with $1 million if she invests $2,000 each year for a mere six years from age 23 to 28. Her Roth IRA allows her money to grow tax-free and escape taxes when she withdraws at 65. Assuming a 12 percent rate of return
65. Assuming a 12 percent rate of return — which historical data suggests is a reliable long-term rate of return Sarah probably will retire at 65 with $1,075,000.
Gina copies Sarah's plan, except she starts 10 years later, thinking that the $2000 will be easier to part with then. When she retires at 65, she won't even have $350,000. Gina's 10-year delay will cost her over $700,000.
Matt takes a different approach. He sees Gina's results and decides that Gina should have invested longer than six years. Matt invests $2000 each year for 32 years from age 33 to 64; he will retire with less than $700,000.
From these examples, it is clear that the early years are critical. Sarah, through six years of investing, has raised more than Gina and Matt combined, through their 38 years of combined investing.
If you miss the opportunity to invest, you'll never get it back. Many recent grads fail to set aside part of their paychecks for saving or investment. They spend their entire paychecks on new cars and luxuries, saving nothing. They squander their paychecks. This is why many people never realize this Millionaire mission.
They start too late or not at all.
Perhaps they count on Social Security, a
gamble our generation cannot rely on.
One need not be born with money to retire comfortably. The bottom line is that you must first discipline yourself and save, then learn to invest. History has shown us that within investment horizons of 20 years or more, stocks will always outperform bonds and CDs, usually by huge margins. As an investor in stocks, you are being compensated as a part owner of a company.
Average stock returns have historically been three to four percent higher than average bond returns. One reason for this is that stockholders are compensated for the extra risk they take on. In the short term, stockholders must endure more price fluctuations. In the long term, with diversification, these risks vanish. Therefore, long-term stockholders are compensated for risk they do not have to endure.
Get a job, save, invest early and be rich.

Letters to the Editor Columnist offers skewed view of Green Party initiatives
First of all, the KU Green Party has never protested students gathering to watch the debates, as Andrew Marino asserts ("Green Party gets preachy on the stump," Friday). We did, however, set up an information table at the Union during the first debate. Most people can discern the difference between passing out information to interested students and protesting their choice to watch the debates. Because this was lost on at least one person, though, I am happy to clarify it. We would have had to protest ourselves as well, given that most of the KU Greens watched the debate along with everyone else.
Secondly, Marino offers as an example of Green powerlessness the image of a "Naderite" in his political science course being ignored when she attempted to offer her opinion. This illustration proves nothing in terms of what kind of impact Green ideas have upon the world. What it does prove is that there exists in Marino's political science course — and probably others — a strong bipartisan bias that stifles alternative viewpoints. Thank you for bringing this problem to light, Mr. Marino.
If the Greens are hungry for anything, it is justice — not control over their fellow citizens' lives. We question why there is still no universal health care in this country, why our environment is being sacrificed daily, why politicians are allowed to take massive amounts of money from corporations, why serious development of alternative energies is absent, why nine million children in this country live in poverty, why we can't have a minimum wage that matches the cost of living, why human rights in other countries are ignored and American jobs are exported under the auspices of NAFTA and the WTO, and most of all, why none of this is being solved by the two major parties. It's something to think about when Nov. 7 rolls around.
I write in response to your editorial "Regulations will inhibit researchers" (Monday). In it, you take issue with the fact that every campus researcher involved in a project is now required to view a presentation about the foundations of human subjects protections.
Editorial overlooks importance of campus research requirement
Sarah Hoskinson Burton junior
"This is a waste of researchers' time." Ben Tatar writes.
I would contend it is not a waste. I would contend that learning about the foundations of human subjects' protection is an important part of the acculturation of all researchers so that they are sensitive to the rights and issues involved.
Should you ever be a subject in an experiment, I think you'd want to know that the experimenter shares a common set of standards and understandings with colleagues campuswide about what is and is not ethical.
Beyond the protection of subjects, I think that learning about some of the more egregious failures to protect human research subjects can lead to more thoughtful design and implementation of research projects.
your editorial states, "The Advisory Committee on Human Experimentation must now approve every project on campus." That's not new, and it's not news; the committee has been responsible for approving all KU human subjects research for more than 20 years.
What is new is the tutorial requirement. Please test it out at www.research.ukans.edu/tutor. Most of the 160 pages contain a few easy-to-understand sentences. Those who take it may quit at any time and return to their original place to resume.
Because the University receives federal funds, we have to review and approve human subjects research. But more than law is involved. We have a duty to teach students, faculty and staff about the rights of human research subjects and the responsibilities that researchers have to them.
Past education has involved classroom visits and meetings with department faculty and chairs. This mode of education is still offered to both students and faculty. Visits between and among us are a benefit not only to the researchers. They also help educate me about problems the researchers face.
Dialogue is important to knowing the rights of research participants and to understanding the difficulties faced by those who wish to conduct such research, and that's why I'm writing in response to the editorial board of the Kansan.

Editorial
Vote wisely; learn about the issues
Before casting ballots, students need to know where candidates stand.
To vote wisely in the upcoming election, voters should know where the candidates stand on important issues. Students should take it upon themselves to learn about each candidate.
Knowing which candidates want to make abortion illegal or propose a National Tuition Savings Program for higher education could mean a difference in your vote. Getting this information means doing some research before heading to the polls.
Promises made by candidates at press conferences or during debates are helpful, but a responsible voter will look for more information. Where do the candidates stand on issues of funding for higher education? How will their views affect the economy and the job market? The most important question is how their views on certain issues will affect you.
Most cringe at the thought of researching anything apart from homework, but electing a candidate that does not match your ideals is far worse. Researching for a 30-page paper may be more difficult than finding information about a candidate. The information about the issues is at the tip of your fingers. By surfing the Internet, watching television or chatting on the phone with friends, there are ample opportunities to find out about candidates
When you check your e-mail, take a moment to look at www.msnbc.com. This site provides updated daily information about candidates. If you're flipping channels for a good television show, linger a while on CNN, a station with "round the clock coverage" on campaign news. You can find information by phone at 1-888-VOTE-SMART where you can ask any question about candidates running for president, governor, House and Senate seats.
Sense seats. Above all, U.S. citizens should vote in the upcoming election, and those voters should know what they are voting for when they go to the polls. Get to know the candidates' issues before Nov. 7.

Photographers snap pet photos
Animal lovers show off pets with portraits
By Michael Rigg
sports at kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Tracy Rasmussen has seen it all. From dogs and rabbits to snakes she can't remember all of the animal lovers that have dragged their pets to Insight Photography, her small northwest Lawrence photography studio.
Tracy Rasmussen has seen it all.
"I get a new pet in here about every month or two," said Rasmussen, who has been a professional photographer since 1983. "About the strangest thing I've photographed was my neighbor's snake. I thought that was pretty weird, but it was fascinating."
For as little as $12 per photo, pet owners can snap a photograph that can last a lifetime. But the reasons behind the owners' desire for pictorial mementos are as varied as the pets themselves.
"I think people bring in their pets because they love them so much," she said.
Animal owners increasingly are taking their beloved pets to photography studios to immortalize the animals on film. Contributed art
but Kate McCarty, Overland Park junior, disagreed. McCarty bought her rabbit two weeks ago, and taking the bunny to Rasmussen's studio was just an excuse to show it off.
"It gave me an excuse to take it out and play with it," McCarty said. "I just got it, so I wanted to show it off. I'll probably send these pictures to my parents."
---
Still, some pet owners are less convinced about the necessity of pet pictures. Ashford Galbreth, Troy, Mich., junior, said he would never let his pet ball python or his pet tarantula near a studio.
"I don't think other people realize how cool they are," he said. "I think if I decided to picture pictures of them, my friends wouldn't understand the beauty. Plus, taking pictures of your pets is just stupid and pointless."
Rasmussen said taking a picture of a pet was just like taking a picture of another small family member.
"It's just like photographing babies," she said. "You just have to be very patient."
And patience is a virtue that could pay off if people want to photograph their pets. Besides Rasmussen, 17 other Lawrence photographers take pictures of pets. Still, it's not always easy to get an appointment.
"We're pretty much booked," Rasmussen said. "I have a friend who does it, and he's full all the time, too."
Once pet owners make it to the studio, their requests are as different as the animals they own. Rasmussen has a picture of a kitten wearing a wedding dress and a dog dressed as Santa Claus.
"We get some pretty strange requests." Rasmussen said.
McCarty decided not to get that crazy. She just wanted to sit with her rabbit on a bench.
"All these other pictures, they just looked so stupid," McCarty said. "I just flipped, the easier the better."
Despite all the pet photo shoots she does, Rasmussen can't remember an animal ever attacking her or her equipment.

NEW YORK — The Mets and Yankees don't harbor the same animosity that existed between the New York baseball teams the last time there was a Subway Series.
The Associated Press
Mets, Yankees pal up
Today's players pal around at the city's hot spots, hold charity events together and have friendships off the field. Not quite Billy Martin and Sal Maglie.
Or is it?
"We actually like their team," said Mets backup catcher Todd Pratt. "Well at least 24 of the guys."
Now, who would that 25th player be?
"We all lost some respect for Roger (Clemens)." Pratt said. As much as both teams might try, the match-up between Clemens and Mets catcher Mike Piazza will dominate talk around the first Subway Series since 1956.
"If anybody thinks it's the most important thing going on, they're incorrect," said Mets manager Bobby Valentine. "If they think it is forgotten about, they're also incorrect."
Piazza is 7-for-12 off Clemens with three memorable home runs. That success, say the Metts, prompted Clemens to drill Piazza in the helmet with a fastball on July 8 at Yankee Stadium.
the tensions have cooled, but they are not totally forgotten. The Mets, who didn't let the Yankees use their weight room at Shea Stadium the following day, won't ban the Yankees next week.
"I put it behind me already," Piazza said. "It is irrelevant. My feeling is we are trying to win the game. We've moved on. That's history."
However, no one expects any retaliation, even if Clemens happens to pitch — and bat — at Shea, which is not expected to happen.
"To me this is only about winning," said Mets general manager Steve Phillips. "It's not about ill will or revenge. Every decision we make will be with the thought of trying to win the game. Nothing else."
The Mets began preparations yesterday for their first World Series since 1986. The clubhouse still reeked of champagne from Monday's celebration after winning the NL pennant, but the players were rested from a day off.
Some spent Tuesday watching the Yankees beat Seattle to give New York its first Subway Series since the Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers 1956. Manager Bobby Valentine watched most of the game surrounded by Yankees fans at his Connecticut restaurant.
A win against the Yankees will quiet all the critics.
For the Mets, who have played second fiddle to the Yankees in New York the past six years, this series is as much about being the best in the city as it is being the best in the world.
"The Yankees are definitely the team of the city," said outfielder Jay Payton, whose swollen left eye was back to normal after he was hit by a Dave Veres pitch Monday night. "This is our chance to get a place on the map. Whoever wins can walk around with their chins high and have bragging rights for a long time."
That's why the most of the Mets were so happy to see the Yankees win. Some people tried to cheapen their NL pennant by saying they didn't win the division and didn't need to beat the Braves to make the World Series.
"If they beat us, they have the three-beat," Pratt said. "If we beat them, we get their rings. If we do that, Atlanta can't say anything. They had their chance against these guys and couldn't beat them."
Leg surgery will sideline double athlete
By Michael Riggs
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Mario Kiney will have to wait a little longer to become the next Charlie Ward, a former Heisman Trophy winner and a NBA player.
Kinsey, a redshirt on the football team and a walk-on for the basketball team this year, had surgery on his lower right leg yesterday and will miss the next two to four weeks.
The surgery corrected Kinsey's Anterior Compartment Syndrome, a condition that is the result of an abundance of exercise and stress on the leg. Kinsey left the football team on Oct. 13 to practice with the basketball team.
Despite the procedure, Kansas football coach Terry Allen said he wasn't concerned with the stress both sports had on Kinsev's body.
"I'm more concerned with the academic allotment of the time constraints of playing both sports." Allen said.
Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams said in a statement that he planned to limit Kinsey when he returned.
"We're disappointed that this has happened to Mario," Williams said. "He was doing very well in practice, and he has shown that he can help this team. We will be very conservative with him when he gets back."
Kinsey, a freshman quarterback and point guard from Waco, Texas, hasn't played in a football game all season. He made his basketball debut last Friday for Late Night with Roy Williams, when he tallied one assist, one block and two steals in the team's intra-squad scrimmage.
While the added pressure of collegiate athletics contributed to Kinsey's condition, Allen said the fact that he played two sports made him popular in the hospital.
"I don't know if any other athlete has had a football coach and a basketball coach at the hospital with him at the same time," Allen said. "Hopefully, he'll be back as soon as he can."

KANSAS TENNIS
Tennis team eager for tournament win
There's little doubt that the Kansas men's tennis team is the overwhelming favorite heading into the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Region V Championships in Tuhsa this weekend.
The Jayhawks swept both the singles and doubles crowns at the event last year, and coach Ross Nwachukwu said he expected his players to come into the tournament wearing targets.
"It just means that we're going to have to be ready for other teams to put forth their best performances against us," Nwachukwu said. "I know my guys are ready for the challenge."
The Jayhawks' toughest challenge may be playing against each other. Sophomore Eleazar Magallain captured the singles title a year ago by defeating teammate Rodrigo Echagayar in the finals.
Nwachukwu said his players realized facing each other was a real possibility this weekend.
"I have five players in the draw," Nwachukwu said "In my opinion, they're all favorites to win if they play well."
Echagaray and senior Ed Dus captured the doubles championship last year. Echagaray, Dus and Magallan all will defend their titles when the main draw of the tournament kicks off today.
of the tournament kicks on today.
"We are definitely the team to beat."
Iwachuluw said. "Everyone will want a piece of Kansas."

Coaches vote for Kansas as No.1 team in Big 12 poll
By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Kansas coach Roy Williams said last week that he expected his team to be picked to win the Big 12 Conference.
Yesterday, his peers agreed with him. For the second time in as many seasons, the Big 12 coaches picked Kansas to win the conference. The difference is that it's unanimous this time, as the Jayhawks accumulated 11 first-place votes to finish on top of the poll (coaches were not allowed to vote for their own teams).
Oklahoma was picked to finish second in the poll, while the Jayhawks' turnipke neighbor — Kansas State — rounded out the bottom. Missouri was tabbed to finish third, and reigning conference champion Iowa State was picked for fourth.
"We're pleased and honored to be chosen as the preseason selection to win the league," Williams said. "But we also realize that last year, Iowa State was picked No. 6, and they ended up winning. What you do out on the court is actually the only thing that matters."
The good news continued for Kansas yesterday as sophomore forwards Nick Collison and Drew Gooden both were named to the coaches' all-Big 12 first team. They were joined on the team by Iowa State's Jamal Tinsley, Missouri's Kareem Rush and Nebraska's Kimani Frietle.
Gooden's off-season work was probably one of the factors figuring into his selection.
sensation.
"I had a tremendous off-season," Gooden said. "Mentally, I learned a lot."
Williams also said he was satisfied with the honors given to Collison and Gooden.
"I'm very pleased that the coaches feel that Nick and Drew deserve this kind of recognition," Williams said. "It will be a challenge to them to work as hard as they can in the preseason and see if this comes to fruition at the end of the season, because, again, that's when it's most important."
Collison said he was ready for the challenge.
"I feel that I am a lot stronger this season, and I am trying to play a lot more physical than I was last year," he said. "I hope to be a better rebounder this season and contribute more at the defensive end of the floor. Offensively, I have been working on the outside shot and hope I can bring that to the table."
Gooden ranked second on the team with 10.6 points per game last season, while Collison was Kansas' third-leading scorer with 10.5 points per game and second-leading rebounder with 6.9 rebounds per game.
Collison also started all of the Jayhawks' games last season, with the exception of senior night.
Kansas opens its exhibition season on Wednesday, Nov. 1, against the California All-Stars.

'Hawks snap losing streak
Kansas disposes of Oklahoma in three games
By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswritetr
Little girls and assorted Kansas athletes waited outside the Kansas locker room last night, lining up for the autographs from a brand new Kansas volleyball team.
The Jayhawks shut out the Oklahoma Sooners 3-0 at the Horesei Family Athletic Center, snapping a five-game losing skid and handing the 6-12, 1-9 Sooners their sixth straight loss.
"It's a joyful relief," said coach Ray Bechard. "If you go a couple of weeks without that feeling, you begin to doubt yourself."
However, Kansas didn't do much doubting against Oklahoma, pounding out scores of 15-8, 15-11 and 15-5 in a little more than an hour and a half.
we executed our game plan really well." Bechard said. "Although there were a lot of broken plays, we managed to win the rallies."
"We had eight aces to their five," Bechard said. "I thought that was really important because they're ranked second in aces in the conference."
The game plan seemed to be quite simple shut down the Sooners at the serve. Oklahoma is ranked second in the Big 12 Conference in service aces, with sophomore defensive specialist Jessica Barney ranked second individually.
Barney didn't serve an ace all night.
However, Sooners' senior setter Carolyn Kittell was deadly behind the line, taking a match-high four aces. But Jayhawks' Jennifer Kraft, sophomore defensive specialist, and Danielle Geronymo, senior middle blocker, were close behind, acing three and two serves respectively.
Senior outside hitter Sara Kidd had her first start of the season, stepping in for freshman phenom Sarah Rome on the right side, recording 14 digs.
Kylie Thomas didn't start, but the sophomore middle blocker made her mark, downing eight kills and recording a. 467 hitting percentage, while Kansas' total hitting percentage was .263. Her play earned high-fives from Big Jay, and a pint-sized volleyball player asked for an autograph.
"Kidd's finally getting healthy, and so we wanted to put her in there," Bechard said. "And she did a good job. Fourteen kills is really good."
really help."
"We have to take advantage of the opportunities we're given, and if we do that, we could go to Colorado and get a win that would

"I think this was a great start for the rest of the season," Thomas said. "As far as we're concerned, this is an 11-game season, and that was our first win."
Next, Kansas 12-7, 3-7, faces game two of its revived season — a match against the Colorado Buffaloes at 7 p.m. Saturday in Boulder, Colo. When Kansas last met Colorado, it was in its first Big 12 match of the 2000 season on Sept. 13, and the 'Hawks pulled out a 3-2 home victory against the Buffaloes. They hope to do it again.
"We have to take advantage of the opportunities we're given," Thomas said. "And if we do that, we could go to Colorado and get a win that would really help."

Female kicker shouldn't place blame on Duke
When it comes to women athletes, I'm all about supporting them — we stick together.
I've been reporting in the male-dominated sports field for almost four years. I'm one of three women who filter into the football locker room every week, I was the only female reporter at the baseball games last season, and this year, I'm the only female columnist at the Kansan. I know what the stares mean and, yes, I do know the difference between a cornerback and a quarterback.
I write with the boys, so I can only imagine what it would be like to play with them. Kathy Ireland tried in Necessary Roughness, but recently two women tried to do it in real life. One even made it out to the sideline with pads on. The other received a healthy dividend for alleged discrimination.
First, there was Katie Hnida who, in 1999, became the second woman to dress for a Division I-A football game for Colorado. She wasn't asked to kick any PATs, as Colorado steamrolled Kansas, 51-17. But on Tuesday, Hnida asked to be released from the Buffaloes in order to find richer pastures to kick in. Everyone wins — for now.
But that all could change thanks to last week's ruling in the Heather Sue Mercer vs. Duke University case. Place-kicker Mercer went up against the big bad wolf and went home crying when she was cut after the team's year-end scrimmage. So she sued and was handsomely rewarded like Road Rules but with more crying and drama. Duke paid Mercer $1 for compensatory damages and the rest of $2 million just for being a mean old boy. That was wrong.
Mercer chose to compete in a male sport, so she should have known the biases she would face. She shouldn't have been surprised that she was left off the starting roster for either not being good enough or because she's a girl.
because he knows that it's not pro-feminist of me, but it's reality. Just as it's terrible that Michael Jordan doesn't play basketball anymore, it blows that women can't play on the same field as men right now.
That might change in the future, but Mercer shouldn't have been rewarded for a stereotype set in motion years ago. When she was cut, she should have practiced harder or transferred schools. She shouldn't have blamed Duke for society's standards.
While it ticks me off that I still get asked the stupid questions — "Do you actually write your own stories, or do you have a man do it for you?" — I accept it and move on. It's their problem, not mine. And maybe it's Duke's loss for not using Mercer in a game situation.
But don't sue and give men the satisfaction of winning — stick with it and stick it to them in the end. That's what I plan on doing.

Jayhawks look for home victory; bowl contention at stake
By Jason Franchuk sports@kanson.com Kanson sportwriter
By Jason Franchuk
At practice Tuesday, assistant coaches cailed the players who had gotten their machismo back after a 38-17 win at Missouri. Coach Terry Allen wandered toward his wife and three children, who were enjoying a picnic in the sunshine.
The Kansas football coaches continually call the players men at practice, but sometimes lessons meant for children can apply for big jayhawks, too.
As Allen approached, he noticed two of his children climbing on a blocking apparatus. He told them, "Be careful; Don't fall."
The same message applies to his football team, which is looking for another strong week of practice to keep its confidence high going into an important game at 11:30 a.m. Saturday against Colorado.
the lack of ambition after a landmark win, but Allen said he was pleased with the team's effort.
at 11:50 am. The hardest game for a team is usually the game it plays after a high-pressure game. There is the fear of a letdown and
Allen has a team rule — the 10 o'clock rule. Each player is allowed to savor a win until 10 a.m. Monday, but then it's on the challenge that lies ahead. The Jayhawks still pucker at last year's sour 51-17 loss to Colorado, which is 1-5 this season. The game was Kansas' Big 12 Conference opener, but more importantly, it was supposed to be an opportunity for Kansas to prove that it could compete in the Big 12 Conference.
"It's pretty good," Allen said. "The kids are trying to stay at the same level of focus."
"Last year they outcoached us, outplayed us, out-everythinged us," Allen said.
Colorado and Kansas' seasons have enjoyed one major similarity so far. Two weeks ago, Colorado faced a must-win, desperation game at Texas A&M, and Kansas' game at Missouri last week
Colorado, however, returned home last week and lost to Texas. Unlike Colorado, the Jayhawks still are in bowl contention at 3-3 and cannot afford the same fate of returning home to lose.
Ted hung home to rook.
"This game is even bigger than the Missouri game," said senior quarterback Dylen Smith. "I think there's more at stake for us to win this game. We're at home, it's homecoming and we have a chance to go to a bowl."
earned must-win desperation status.
Both teams won their games.
Of course, Allen was the first to admit that if Kansas did not win last week, all of this bowl talk would be a moot point. The tricks the Jayhawks tried last week worked, though. Allen's players practiced an extra day. Sessions were longer and harder. This week he has cut back some, saying his team has gotten the message.
"Fortunately, with the victory last week we think we're getting better," Allen said. Edited by Writer Chilngra

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 19). Use your brains to increase your income. You can do it with a combination of talent and sensitivity. The person who's most annoying in October could be your guide to success. Learn a new role in November and be well-rewarded for it. Study something you love in December, and romance could be a byproduct. A game could lead to a commitment in February. Dip into your savings to make yourself look better in May. Abundance comes from far away in June, and somebody who nags you is your best coach in July. That burr under your saddle keeps you going in September.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
Your mind's probably on a domestic matter, no matter where your body is. Go over your scheme during your coffee break. If you've already figured out your plan by the time you get home, the job will be a lot easier.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8.
If you're single, a close friend or your favorite sibling might find you the perfect mate. If you're committed, double dating with that same sibling or close friend would be fun. Right now can be better than the good old days!
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5.
Deep down, you're lucky. You express yourself well, and that doesn't hurt. Don't become too talkative. Don't pass along the news you just got from a co-worker. Keep doing your job. You'll make a better impression on those who already know.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
You're anxious to get going today. The information you're seeking is there, but you'll have to dig for it. Being angry about that isn't bad, by the way. It gives you more energy.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
Resolving an old issue is worth the effort. It may take longer than expected, though. Once the cat's out of the bag, you could learn all sorts of interesting things. Keep asking and listening.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is an 8.
Have you felt thwarted lately? Held back?
Unable to unleash your full potential? Conditions are improving for your personal growth. Finish that degree. If you already know it all, teach. Now that's a learning experience.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
**Scorpio** (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
A distant friend or relative could come up with a fabulous scheme. If it involves a reunion with the old gang, the timing's perfect. Volunteer to be in charge of the mailing list. You'll be great at tracking everybody down.
Did somebody promise you money and never pay up? Remind them. That goes for the boss who owes you a raise, too. Unfortunately, what goes around comes around. You may need the money because somebody's bugging you!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
Your luck's getting better. Venus, symbol of good luck and love, is coming into your sign. Don't race off and do something foolish, however. Other indicators advise discretion. As you know, that's sometimes the better part of valor.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.
Move quickly on an idea you want to push through. Getting your way is going to be more difficult for a while. Line up your team so you won't be working alone. You always do better with a few friends on your side.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8.
The grapevine works well for you. Need an attor
ney? A friend of a friend could be the perfect
person. A recliner for the living room? Somebody
may be about to toss one out. Call around and let
people know what you're after.

Ritual Chinese dance tells tale of Buddha
entertainment briefs
Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan will perform "Songs of Wanders," a modern dance performance, at 8 tonight at the Lied Center.
The company, founded in 1973 and consisting of 24 dancers, is led by artistic director and founder Lin Hwaimin. The dance company is renowned in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia. The company has performed at venues such as the Kennedy Center and the Sydney 2000 Olympics Arts Festival.
The name comes from a 5,000-year-old ritual Chinese dance. It is the first contemporary dance company from a Chinese-speaking community. The company's roots stem from Asian myths, folklore and age-old beliefs.
the featured dance originated from a trip that Hwaimin took to Bodgaya, India. Bodgaya is the place where, according to legend, Buddha attained his enlightenment. Hwaimin created the work in an effort to illustrate the quest for quietude and to take the audience through a cycle of spiritual searching, cleansing and renewal, said Karen Christiles, interim associate director and director of marketing for the Uied Center.
*waimin studied Chinese opera in his native Taiwan, modern dance in New York and classical court dance in Japan and Korea. He is best known for blending traditional theater elements with Western dance techniques, Christies said.*
Hwaimin will give a pre-concert lecture from 7 to 7:30 p.m at the Oldfather Studio.
Tickets are available through the Lied Center box office at 864-2787 or any Ticketmaster outlet. Prices are public $27 and $22 for the public, $13.50 and $11 for students, and $26 and $21 for senior citizens.

Concert to benefit local women's shelter
— BriAnne Hess
Local bands will play for a cause at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 25, at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
Meg Hooper, Burtlington junior and member of Muddie Mae, said the "Escape Into to the Night" benefit was being held to raise money for the Women's Transitional Services, a shelter that helps women escape abusive home lives.
Single calls Celia, Sheri Martin,
Stephanie Hewett and Julia Peterson;
and bands PSO, Sturgeon Mill,
Muddie Mae and headliner Soulmatic
will perform.
"Our goal is to raise enough money to help make the WTCS shelter less drafty," Hooper said. "Winter is coming, and a lot of the women have small children who get sick easily."
"Being in an abusive situation is a catch-22 because society thinks that these women are dumb for staying and that they shouldn't get any help because they choose to stay," she said. "However, many of the women who are at the shelter here in Lawrence do not have the financial means or family support to leave."

Stand-up comedian to perform on campus
$6 for 18- to 20-year-olds
"if I ever had twins, I'd use one for ports."
Such is the act of Steven Wright, the frizzy-haired comedian whose delivery is comparable to Ferris Bueller's teacher calling roll.
Wright will bring his deadpan act of offbeat oneilers to campus at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Lied Center. Tickets are $26.50.
Wright has been touring the United States and Canada with his comedy routine. Last July, he traded his one-lineers to write, direct and star in One Soldier, a short film about a man obsessed with the unanswerable questions of life.
Wright's beginning as a standup comedian in Massachusetts soon propelled him toward comedy and movie stardom. He performed on the Tonight Show With Johnny Carson in 1982; within a week, Carson invited him to appear again. Appearances on Saturday Night Live and an appearance on Late Night with David Letterman followed, which paved the way to two HBO comedy specials.
In recent years, Wright has starred opposite Mike Myers in So I Married An Axe Murderer, and has roles in Natural Born Killers, Reservoir Dogs and HalfBaked.
GQ released "The Comedy issue" in June 1999 with five of Wright's oneliners among the 75 funniest jokes of all time:
"I've been getting into astronomy, so I installed a skylight. The people who live above me are furious."
"When I was a little kid, we had a quicksand box. I was an only child ... eventually."
Wright continues to appear regularly on latenight shows with David Letterman, Jay Leno and Conan O'Brien.

DENVER — Abner Youts may be singing the blues after getting nearly four years in prison for stealing and wrecking a train — but at least the judge suggested a few tunes he could use.
Youts asked the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn his 1994 conviction for hijacking two Union Pacific railroad locomotives in Wichita and then derraling them at full throttle after hopping off.
One locomotive wound up on a city street, and the other was on another.
The federal court turned down Yout's appeal. But Chief Judge Stephanie Seymour of Tulsa, Okla., delivered the bad news Tuesday in a ruling sprinkled with lyrics from two songs and footnote references to four others.
"He made that freight train boogie, as he rolled down the line," Seymour wrote, opening her summary of Youts' misadventure with a line from John Denver's version of "Choo Choo Ch'Boogie."
Youts was sentenced to 46 months in prison and ordered to pay $234,000 in restitution.
Seymour also turned to the Grateful Dead's version of "Tons of Steel" to describe the derailment: "Nine hundred thousand tons of steel, out of control ... These wheels are bound to jump the tracks before they burn the ties."
Racy photos adorn university directory
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Samford University's student directory is called "Faces," but the new issue has generated a buzz because of other body parts — the cover features a mosaic of hundreds of tiny images featuring nude women and sex acts.
The Baptist-affiliated school distributed thousands of the 100page directory last week.
Sharp-eyed students quickly informed school officials that the cover mosaic over an image of model Christy Turington contained pornography.
The cover's artist, senior graphic design major David Carrigan, said he took the uncopyrighted mosaic from a Web site and blurred the images with a computer.
Coke winner ineligible for $20,000 award
DELAFIEL, Wis. — An 82-year-old man who found a winning chip worth $20,000 in a 12-pack of Coca-Cola had his fizzles fizzle when he learned that his part-time job as a food-store bagger made him ineligible for the prize.
"What really hurts is that I promised six of the girls working as scanners at the store each $100, and I feel so badly for them because they're such nice girls," Stanley Iracki said
Saturday.
Iracki also acknowledged he could have used the $20,000. He said he received no retirement benefits other than Social Security, and he exhausted his life savings during a long illness suffered by his wife, who died seven years ago.
He works 18 to 24 hours a week at the store to make ends meet
Game officials told Iracki he was ineligible to win because he works at the Pick 'n Save store.
Pick 'n Save was a co-sponsor of the game, and the rules state that employees of participating retailers, wholesalers and distributors are not eligible to win.
Volunteers clean lint from dirty caverns
CARLBAS CAVERNS NATIONAL PARK, N.M. — It's a dirty job, but people actually volunteer to do it: cleaning lint from one of the state's largest tourist attractions.
When dirt covers the formations, carbonic acid in the water that forms the cave becomes trapped and begins to erode the formations, said camp coordinator Pat Jablonsky.
About 20 guests participated this year in the Carlisbad Caverns National Park Lint Camp — gathering about 30 pounds of lint.
Oddities
"It's like in your house," chucked Linda Schumann of Denver. "In the cracks and crevices, you always find more."
The pickers use brushes to gather lint with static, naturally. Gloves keep away oil from human hands, which could stop the formations from growing, park officials said.
Bull moose takes dip in residential pool
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — It took heavy construction equipment to extricate a wayward 850-pound bull moose that took a dip in a backyard swimming pool.
Hulda Jowett looked out her bathroom window and saw the moose standing up to its thighs in water, calmly taking a drink.
"I closed my eyes, opened them again and said," Omigod, there's a moose in my pool." Jowett said.
She called police, who arrived with wildlife officers, firefighters and a city crew with a bucket loader.
After being shot with a tranquilizing dart, the large bull moose hopped nimply onto the pool when it appeared to fail into a doze.
but as workers were slipping straps under the moose to lift it with the bucket loader, the animal awoke, stumbled to its feet and toppled into the deep end of the pool.
The moose was hauled out of the pool with the bucket loader and released back to the Berkshire woods.

Evolving Pearl Jam rocks live
By Chris Barniger
Kansan managing editor
My, how things have changed. Back when baggy flannel shirts and tattered jeans were all the rage, Pearl Jam reigned supreme as the poster band for grunge.
Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder sends an intense stare out to the crowd during "Do the Evolution." Thursday's concert at Sandstone Amphitheatre in Bonner Springs helped promote the band's release of several live shows recorded over the summer. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN
That genre may be dead, but the band that took grunge to the mainstream is far from it. The evidence: Pearl Jam's performance Oct. 12 at Sandstone Amphitheatre in Bonner Springs.
I'll just stick to what's clearly visible. The text is not there.
The image contains a blurry, monochromatic portrait of a person. The face is in focus, and the person appears to be singing or speaking passionately. The background is indistinct and dark, providing no additional context about the location or event. There are no discernible features such as clothing or accessories that can be described. The image does not contain any text that can be transcribed accurately without loss of detail.
In the nine years since the band released its blockbuster debut, Ten, Pearl Jam has done a lot of growing up — as has its legion of fans. Eddie Vedder and company are hardly the group of young faces from Seattle that found huge commercial success in 1991. Most of them cut their hair, and Vedder now sports a thick beard.
Factor in the considerable sonic evolution from Ten to Binaural, which was
released this spring, and the addition of drummer Matt Cameron (of fellow Seattle band Soundgarden, another casualty of grunge's demise), and it's clear Pearl Jam is a totally different band.
It's the diversity of songwriting with a Pearl Jam concert truly exciting to see. Songs such as the band's first single, "Even Flow," contrast beautifully with more recent efforts such as "Nothing as it Seems." The roller coaster of energy this dynamic creates takes the audience on one hell of a ride.
Surprisingly, Pearl Jam's performance was packed with hits from earlier albums instead of tracks from Binaural, which received justifiably lackluster reviews. The band kicked off its performance with "Release," a serene track from Ten, before launching into the hard-rocking "Do the Evolution" from 1989's Yield.
An onslaught of the band's greatest songs followed in the next two hours, including "Black," "Jeremy" (with Vedder fumbling the lyrics), "Animal," "Rearviewmirror,"
"Corduroy," "Red Mosquito"
"Given to Fly."
Noticeably absent, however,
were "Alive" and "Not for You."
Just listening to studio
albums robs listeners of the Pearl Jam experience; this is a band that demands to be heard live. But leave your flanned shirt at home.

Indigo Girls strike a chord with environmental message
Indigo Girls Amy Ray and Emily Sailors perform at the Lied Center Saturday night. The duo encouraged the audience to fill cut cards protesting the slaughter of wild buffaloes in Yellowstone National Park and the dumping of nuclear waste on Native American land. Photo by Jaime Roper KANSAN
By Emily Hughey
Kansan editorial editor
It's nice to know celebrities are out there who crusade for worthy causes. It's even nicer when fans can support those causes simply by being entertained by their favorite artists.
Such was the scene at the Indigo Girls' Honor the Earth concert Saturday night at the Lied Center. Along with Shawn Mullins and Indigenous, the Girls strummed their guitars and wailed into microphones to stop environmental injustices against Native Americans.
Though the benefit concert was complete with messages encouraging activism against nuclear waste on native lands, the slaughtering of buffalo in Yellowstone National Park and clemency pleas for Leonard Peltier, music ruled the show.
Indigenous, a blues/rock band, took the stage first. The band's smooth guitar licks, paired with the deep, rich vocals of lead singer, Pte, set the audience swaving.
Even Shawn Mullins, who followed Indigenous, commented on the band's performance by confessing he was backstage dancing throughout the first set. Mullins, long-time friend of the Girls and native Georgian, brought an entirely different sound to the center. His smooth acoustic sound and low, raspy voice poured out like honey from the stage. He ended with his hit single, "Rockabye," an on-your-feet prelude to the Indigo Girls' opening
rendition of "Redemption Song."
Following their respectable folk/rock interpretation of Bob Marley's classic, the Indigo Girls matched both the energy of Indigenous and the personality of Mullins.
They seemed to hold nothing from the audience—except perhaps a few more hours of their music. The cathartic chorus of Emily Saliers' high and Amy Ray's low resonated in the Lied Center to favorites such as "Closer to Fine," "Power of Two" and "Galileo," among others.
In addition, the duo performed some songs off their new album, Retrospective. And after every tune
came a gracious "thanks y'all" from both musicians and a request or "I love you" from the audience.
After about an hour and 30 minutes of playing, the Indigo Girls' harmony came to a close with "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee," during which both Indigenous and Shawn Mullins shared the stage with the headliners.
Though benefit concerts often have a tendency to be laden with moralistic rhetoric, the Indigo Girls' Honor the Earth concert conveyed its intended messages while entertaining and energizing the audience.

Play champions political choices in United States
By Amy Cummins Kansan theater critic
It is fitting that a play as political as Angels in America: Part One, Millennium Approaches is being performed by the University Theatre in the weeks before a United States presidential election.
Tony Kushner's play, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1993, represents progressive political activism.
The full title of all of Kushner's Angels plays is A Gay Fantasia on National Themes. This play, set in 1985, is very critical of homophobia and discrimination against gays.
The performance on Saturday in Murphy Hall's Crafton-Preyer Theatre revealed the far-reaching implications of decisions made in the voting booth. The character of Martin Heller, played by Kristen Bush, celebrates the "dawning of a genuinely American political personality, modeled on Ronald Wilson Reagan" and praises corrupt lawyer Roy Cohn as "a saint of the Right," while the play exposes hypocrisy and the hollowness of political rhetoric.
Angels requires a versatile set of actors to play multiple roles. The University Theatre's entire cast is outstanding. The players work skillfully with an expert production crew and director Jack Wright, professor of theater and film.
Angels also points out that economic prosperity in the 1980s was gained at the expense of people who suffered from oppression and discrimination. However, this play seems to be popular among theatergoers of all political leanings.
Through the use of split scenes, the play emphasizes the way the seemingly dissimilar characters are interconnected. The character of famous power broker Roy Cohn, played by Ryan Colwell, Leawood junior, embodies the ironic contradictions of his era. The character, who has symptoms of AIDS, will not accept the diagnosis or the truth about his sexual orientation.
Angels continues tonight through Sunday. No one should miss it.

Writing plays wasn't what Alan Newton came to the University of Kansas to do. It did, however, influence his original decision to come.
Play nominated for festival
By Katie Nelson Special to the Kansan
"I came here during my spring break while I was living in Michigan," said the Montgomery, Ala., doctoral student. "I got the opportunity to attend one of the Final Play Reading Contests that the English Alternative Theatre does here. I was amazed that an English department had its own theater company."
Although he has no prior theater experience, Newton has written two plays. His second, Whiteout, will be performed tonight through Sunday at the Lawrence Community Theatre. 1501 New Hampshire St.
The English Alternative Theatre nominated this play in the original-scripts division of the Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival. Judges from the organization will attend performances tonight and tomorrow. If the play is selected, it will be performed at the regional festival at Johnson County Community College. About 130 to 160 plays are submitted each year in the University's eight-state region. Six to eight plays will be performed at the regional festival. The final step of the competition takes place at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.
The play is about three friends who reunite when they become trapped in a small-town
cabin in northern Alabama during a sudden snowstorm. Mark, the owner of the cabin and manager of a small grocery store, is a self-proclaimed redneck. He and his two friends, Cathy, an English professor from Michigan, and Brad, an accountant living in Alabama, are in their early 30s.
While a wild snowstorm builds outdoors, heat builds inside. Arguments about social, sexual and racial beliefs ensue.
"Although the situation is entirely fictitious, the people are based on friends I knew." Newton said of the three Caucasian characters. "Even though it is set in the South, it's not just a play focusing on southern racism. I wanted to show how racism hurts them just as much as the objects of their attacks."
Pat Knetsch, director and designer, said the play dealt with the theme of racism and the prejudices that were harbored within each of the three characters in varying degrees
Whiteout features actors Megan Dillingham, Overland Park graduate student and winner of the 1999 Irene Ryan National Acting Competition; Ryan Westhoff, Lawrence senior; and Andy Stowers.
Tickets for Whiteout still are available.
Performances are at 8 p.m. tonight through
Saturday and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $5. Call 864-3642 for reservations.

Blair Witch 2 wastes time, film
Review
By Ryan Dolan
Kansan movie critic
(1)
In the Blair Witch Project sequel, *Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows*, five nineteenthens takes a hike into haunted woods. Contributed art
Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows director Joe Berlinger once wrote of filmmaking, "Real success can only be achieved by creating your own path instead of following the path of others."
Berlinger should have heeded his advice.
Artisan Entertainment plans to release the sequel (or BWZ) on Halloween to capitalize on ghoulish moods of ticket buyers.
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown exudes more suspense and tension, than this Firestone-blowout of horror flicks.
The primary blame for this 35 mm catastrophe lies directly on Artisan, BWZ's production company. Artisan was a struggling but respectable movie distributor when it bought the original Blair Witch Project from young filmmakers Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez for $100,000.
The film eventually grossed more than $100 million.
Myrick, Sanchez and Artisan created a revolutionary Internet campaign — including a Blair Witch mythology that many young Web surfers thought was true.
Artisan has generated a clever online campaign for *BW2*, which includes a three-day "Blair Witch Webfest" that began yesterday. Despite that, the buzz about the film is a fraction of the original. More importantly, Artisan wasted any mystical aura that remained around the Blair Witch phenomenon because of a greedy, rushed production. The fact that Myrick and Sanchez did not write or direct, but merely provided consultation damages BWZ's credibility. Apparently, the pair will write and direct Blair Witch 3 sometime in 2001.
But *BW2* is a blot on the resumes of all concerned. The dorm-wall-thin plot? Five twenyethomings hike into the

haunted woods near Burkitsville, Md. They make it out alive, but they've brought something back with them.
Vanishing, ghosts, orgies and gore ensue. Poor Eric Leerhem
playing the token Wiccan prances around half-naked for the last 45 minutes. Metaphors dealing with the destructive power of law enforcement and the press in the last 15 minutes fail to halt the debacle.
If you don't know what to do this Halloween, find yourself a nice pumpkin patch and a blanket. Waiting for the Great Pumpkin would definitely elicit more thrills than watching this film.

Pay it Forward warms hearts
*Pay it Forward*, starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, Haley Joo Osmet and Jon Bon Jovi, is a thoroughly entertaining film that exudes a pungent air of feel-good morality.
Not only will you be entertained — any viewer with an iota of heart will walk out of the theater affected — you'll sport a bit more hope
than you walked in with,
and most likely you'll have an itch to help someone.
Barring pernicious aliens,
planet-rocking explosions
and gratitulous sex, what more can you ask for from a movie?
Indeed, this film could be
son. And best of all, it refrains from breaking down into a lecture. Instead, it tells us a wonderful, involving story about a little boy and his social studies assignment.

seen as a retort to the governmental accusations that Hollywood is about nothing but sex and violence. Pay it Forward attacks the issues head on: substance abuse, domestic violence, child abuse, societal apathy, intimacy versus sex, guns in schools — and this is just the beginning. It portrays people of a variety of races and social classes in a fair and hopeful way. It offers a solution to the world's problems that doesn't require a superhero; it claims a solution can be found in every per-
The success of this film relies on a multitude of factors. First and foremost is the writing. The screenplay, by Leslie Dixon (Mrs. Doubtfire), was based on the book by Catherine Ryan Hyde and is largely why this film works. A great story will go a long way. This film has no shortage of great actors. Haley Joel Osmet (Sixth Sense) stars as Trevor McKinney; Helen Hunt (As Good as it Gets) plays his mother.
Arlene McKinney; and Kevin Spacey (American Beauty) is Eugene Simonet, Trevor's teacher. These three Academy-adored thespians really don't need to be critiqued—their mere presence in a film should say enough.
Top the mix off with director Mimi Leder, who directed Deep Impact, and you've got a recipe for a worthwhile cinematic experience.
So go on, make your plans and get your tickets. How else are you going to be entertained and improve your karma for less than 10 bucks?
And while you're at it, get your friends to go see Pay It Forward, too. If enough people see it, who knows. It just might change the world.

Professor, KU disagree about guest lecturer
By Leita Schultes

Kanson staff writer
Ray Pierotti sat down in his Biology 414 class yesterday, giving lecture responsibilities to his wife. She's qualified, and she's a good teacher, Pierotti said — but the University of Kansas is not happy with the arrangement.
Only a few moments before class started, Rob Weaver, associate dean of liberal arts and sciences, and Ed Wiley, associate chairman of the ecology and evolutionary biology department, had entered Pierotti's classroom. A brief, but heated, conversation ensued.
"I would prefer if he left the room," said Pierotti, associate professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, pointing at Wiley. "If one of my students complains to you that I am not
covering my classes, then you have a right to intercede."
Pierotti had surgery on a detached retina two weeks ago and a second surgery Tuesday. As a result, he has a hard time see

ing and can become dizzy. His wife, Cynthia Annett, has given four guest lectures in the past two weeks.
Annett is a former KU instructor who taught Biology 414 when she worked at the University from 1992 to 1999. She left the University after she was denied tenure, but not before she and her husband filed a lawsuit against KU for discrimination.
Pierotti, who is Native American, claimed the University discriminated against him because of his race by not giving him equal resources. Annett said the University denied her tenure because of her gender. The University won the lawsuit in March.
Pierotti said the University's objection to Annett teaching was based on resentment from the lawsuit.
"I believe they're retaliating against Dr. Annett and for filing lawsuits and complaints against them," Pierotti said.
He said Annett's rejection Wednesday morning of mediation with the University about some of those complaints could have instigated the investigation into who was teaching his class.
There was no other reason for the University to care, he said. Pierotti had not heard any complaints from his students. They are having a good time in class and earning good

University buys vacant homes
By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The Kansas University Endowment Association has purchased one property and has contracted for five more on the 1300 block of Ohio Street.
The purchase was made at the request of the chancellor's office, said Daryl Beene, senior vice president for property with the Endowment Association. The amount of purchase was not disclosed.
This property at 1323 Ohio, along with four other houses soon will be purchased by KU Endowment Center for future use by the University. The buildings currently are vacant and will be demolished once all properties are purchased by the Endowment Center. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN
"Our mission is to serve the University and, in this particular case, the chancellor requested that we purchase these properties for future use by the University." Beene said.
The properties purchased are at 101, 1321, 1323, 1329 and 1333 Ohio St. A vacant lot between two of those properties also was purchased. The buildings on Ohio Street are vacant and will be demolished once all properties are purchased by the Endowment Association.
Warren Corman, university architect, said definite plans had not been set for the properties.
"Whenever property that close to campus comes for sale, the endowment tries to purchase it," Corman said. "It seems like we always need more space."
Corman said the campus master plan announced in the fall of 1997 showed possible areas for expansion but any construction would depend on private gifts to the Endowment Association and what the gifts specified.
"Almost every building on the campus has some needs for renovation, expansion or improvement," Corman said.
Josh Boots, president of the All Scholarship Hall Council, said he thought the area could be used to expand the scholarship hall system.
"There's definitely room for more scholarship halls," said Boots, Plano, Texas, junior. "We always have more applicants than we can take."
Boots also said he would like to see the scholarship halls become more involved in the Oread neighborhood and with the neighborhood association.
"We are part of that community and we want to be part of the neighborhood," he said. "We want to see positive interactions with the community."
Janet Gerstner, president Oread Neighborhood Association, said she was sad to see the neighborhood lose the character of old homes and she was
worried about the purchase of old, blighted homes by the Endowment Association and the message it would send to other landlords.
"Does this encourage surrounding landlords to not maintain their property and let it get rundown, and then someday sell it to the University for the large profit?" she said.
Gerstner said she understood the University's changing needs, but she would like to see the neighborhood,
city and University work together to counter blight, make the area around campus attractive and safe.
She said the recent purchases were met with concern by the neighborhood association.
"We're wondering how much further they're going to come," she said. "With KU encroaching there's a powerless feeling, and there's nothing we can do to stop it."

Stephenson Hall float removed from parade
Officials say entry was not sponsored by hall's residents
By Chris Borniger editor@kansan.com
Kansas managing editor
was a Stephenson resident.
Organizers booted the third annual Stephenson Hall "Float of Doom" from the Homecoming Parade lineup yesterday, claiming the float failed to meet parade guidelines.
Chandra Dunbark, program adviser for the Kansas and Burge Unions and homecoming co-chairwoman, said the float was not sponsored by Stephenson Hall and the student who registered the float no longer
But that student, Isley Unruh, Valley Center junior, said the float was removed because officials from the Department of Student Housing objected to the float's content. Plans for the Float of Doom depicted a car with a giant penis attached to the rear of the car, a buffalo head at the front that converted into a vagina and a sign aloft the car with the words "penis" and "vagina" on opposite sides.
"It might not be appropriate, but that depends on your point of view," said Unruh, who planned the float with seven other current and former Stephenson residents. "It's more of a statement about obscenity."
Jennifer Wamellink, assistant director of student housing, said some Stephenson residents had complained to her about the float. She then notified Dunbar, who decided that the float's planers' application to be in the parade was invalid.
"We were most concerned about the possible misrepresentation of students living in Stephenson Hall," "Jamelink said." "Content was a secondary concern."
This is the second year the Float of Doom has been removed from the parade. Last year, Student Union Activities coordinators deemed the float in poor taste. It consisted of a truck covered with signs with such messages as "Damn the Man." It also featured a large fist attached to the top of the cab, with the fist's middle finger out stretched.
In 1998, the Float of Doom was in the parade. On the outside, the float featured spirited pro-Jayhawk messages. While traveling down Jayhawk Boulevard, hall residents ripped off the outer layer, raised a pirate flag and put on masks.
The decision to remove this year's float was based only on eligibility rules, Dunbar
said. But had the group been eligible, she said, the float would have had to meet the goals of homecoming. She said those goals included sticking to the homecoming theme, "Passport to the World," and making a positive impact on the University.
"Content had nothing to do with this. If they could have justified how the float met the goals of homecoming, it would have been OK," Dunbar said. "But I assume it would have been difficult to justify that."
Jon Breeding, Springfield, Mo., sophomore and one of the Float of Doom's planners, said he thought that homecoming organizers overstepped their bounds.
"What better venue than homecoming, this all-American, wholesome venue, to challenge people's notions of obscurity?" he said. "We weren't even given a chance." Today's parade will be at 2:30 p.m. on Jayhawk Boulevard.

While students wave the wheat at tomorrow's Homecoming football game, they might have to strain their ears a little
"It's absolutely ridiculous because my freshman and sophomore years, the band was right next to the student section," said Nate Stange, Wichita senior. "I've never heard a reason why they moved them."
to hear the marching band's music. The Marching Jayhawks last year were moved from seats adjacent to the student section of Memorial Stadium to the curved area of the stadium, and some students say that's a problem.
-
Darren Cook, director of facilities for the Athletics Department, said the band was moved because the current location provided the loudest effect for the majority of the stadium, but some students still complain that the band is harder to hear in its current location.
"It's a tough situation," Cook said. "Where I sat at the K-State game, the K-State band was louder, but then again, I sat right across from them. It's all relative to where you're sitting in the stadium."
Timothy Oliver, director of the marching band, said that the Athletics Department controlled where the band sat, but that he wanted the band to be located in a spot that best met everyone's needs.
"We want to be located where we can provide the maximum amount of impact for all the fans and the football team." Oliver said. But Brian Heinen, a DeSoto junior who plays altoxophone for the band, said he didn't like the move.
"In years past we've been very visible, but now it's like we're tucked away and ignored," Heinen said. "During the K-State game, it was as if we were playing to the K-State fana."
"The band can take the team in one direction or another. It can boost the team's spirit and get the fans going." Heinen said. "I
Heinen said the band was an important component to football games and that its influence was better when it was located next to the students.

think we did that best when we were in the student section."
Ben Walker, student body president, said he had-received complaints from students about the current situation and had contacted Pat Warren, associate athletics director, to discuss moving the hand back to the student section.
"I think it's actually a big issue, not only for the marching band but for students," Walker said. "It seems kind of strange that the K-State band was closer to us than the KU band."
Cook said the Athletics Department would be willing to discuss the situation, and Stange said he hoped the band would be moved back.
“It's hard to get pumped up for the fight song when they're down at the other end of the stadium and hard to hear,” Stange said.

Students for a Free Tibet sponsor clothing drive
Students for a Free Tibet kicked off a two-week clothing drive for Tibetan refugees yesterday with a lunch at Ecumenical Christian Ministries. 1204 Oread Ave.
Ben Burgen, president of Students for a Free Tibet, said the group hoped to collect clothing in all residence and scholarship halls for Tibetan refugees in Nepal.
"People flee Tibet because of the political and social situation, and usually have to hike through the mountains to get to Nepal," he said.
Burgen said that even though the people who will benefit are half a world away, students should still try to help.

Chinese immigrants found in shipping box
WORLD
HONG KONG — Inspectors discovered 26 illegal immigrants from mainland China hiding in a shipping container bound for the United States after instruments showed carbon dioxide emanating from the container, authorities said yesterday. The men got into the container in Hong Kong and were supposed to be shipped out today en route to Long Beach, Calif., Customs and Excise Department spokesman Peter Tui said.
The men had suffered no injuries and had basic necessities, including drinks, canned food and instant noodles. The immigrants were believed to have come from mainland China's Fujian Province.

Instruments suspect in Carnahan crash
GOLDMAN, Mo. — Safety investigators will look at whether a potentially faulty dashboard instrument played a role in the plane crash that killed Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan, his son and his top adviser.
The Associated Press
While recovery of pieces of the plane continues at the crash site, the focus of the investigation moves to analyzing what went wrong, officials said yesterday. Pieces of the wreckage are being moved to a National Guard armory in Festus, not far from the crash site near this small town about 25 miles south of St. Louis.
National Transportation Safety Board member Carol Carmody said an expert on the plane's technology will lead a new group of investigators. One thing they'll look at is the plane's artificial horizon, also known as the primary attitude indicator.
Roger Carnahan was plotting the plane Monday night that also carried his father, the 66-year-old governor, and Chris Sifford, 37, Mel Carnahan's longtime aide. The plane crashed shortly after 7:30 p.m. in a hilly, heavily wooded area amid rain and fog. It had taken off about a half-hour earlier from a suburban St. Louis airport, headed for a fundraiser for Carnahan's U.S. Senate campaign in New Madrid, Mo.
Citing air traffic transcripts, the NTSB said Roger Carnahan told controllers he was having problems with his primary attitude indicator, used to help maintain level flight.
Investigators will also look at the plane's vacuum system, the weather and other potential factors.
Twelve minutes later, the twin-engine Cessna 335 plummeted 3,200 feet before disappearing from radar, investigators said.

While recovery of pieces of the plane continues at the crash site, the focus of the investigation moves to analyzing what went wrong, officials said yesterday. Pieces of the wreckage are being moved to a National Guard armory in Festus, not far from the crash site near this small town about 25 miles south of St. Louis.
National Transportation Safety Board member Carol Carmody said an expert on the plane's technology will lead a new group of investigators. One thing they'll look at is the plane's artificial horizon, also known as the primary attitude indicator.
The Associated Press
Roger Carnahan was piloting the plane Monday night that also carried his father, the 66-year-old governor, and Chris Sifford, 37, Mel Carnahan's longtime aide. The plane crashed shortly after 7:30 p.m. in a hilly, heavily wooded area amid rain and fog. It had taken off about a half-hour earlier from a suburban St. Louis airport, headed for a fundraiser for Carnahan's U.S. Senate campaign in New Madrid, Mo.
Citing air traffic transcripts, the NTSB said Roger Carnahan told controllers he was having problems with his primary attitude indicator, used to help maintain level flight.
Investigators will also look at the plane's vacuum system, the weather and other potential factors.
Twelve minutes later, the twin-engine Cessna 335 plummeted 3,200 feet before disappearing from radar, investigators said.

Web site offers crime stats
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Tuition. Location. Majors. Student life.
Now students can add crime to the list of things to consider when looking for a school.
The U.S. Department of Education has started an online database that people can search to find university crime statistics. The Web site went up late last month with about 3,200 schools and should be finished late this month, with about 6,000 mandated to send in data by Tuesday.
The site includes statistics from the last three years about sex crimes, burglaries, murder and auto theft, among other things. People can search by different categories, such as region, state, type of institution, majors offered and student population. The site also breaks down where on campus the crimes occur — in residence halls, noncampus buildings or public property.
According to the site, crimes such as burglary, rape and assault have decreased for the past three years on the University of
Kansas campus, Kansas State and Iowa State reported increases in each of these categories between 1988 and 1999. Other Big 12 schools did not show consistent patterns.
The Web site is a product of the Clery Act, which requires all campuses that receive federal funding to report crime statistics. The act is named after Jeanne Clery, who was murdered by another student in 1986 while attending school in Pennsylvania.
Chris Keary, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, said the University had sent its statistics in last week.
"We have been complying with the requirements of the Clery Act ever since it was put out," Keary said. "This is the first time the Department of Education has ever asked for statistics in this manner."
Statistics for the city are not available on the Web site. Keary said the Lawrence Police Department could not provide the University with the information asked for, which would include crime statistics for streets and sidewalks next to campus, in public property around the University and in fraternity and sorority houses.

www.ope.edu/go/security/ search.asp.
Students also can check out a daily log of crimes, crime alerts and other crime-related information for KU at www.ukans.edu/safety.
Audrey Snyder, Shawnee freshman, said she definitely would have looked at the Web site if it had been available during her college search but was not sure it would have changed her mind.
J. J. Dane, Iowa City, Iowa, freshman, said she would not have changed her decision based solely on crime statistics either. But she said she would have checked it out.
Dane said she might encourage her friends who were looking for schools to take a look at the Web site.
Dane said she felt safe on campus, although she was a little concerned with the rape at the beginning of the year.

Advisers have in-depth training before working

Kansan staff writer
Bobby Beachy felt overwhelmed at fresh man orientation.
Like many of his classmates, the Prairie Village freshman had questions about enrollment and what classes to take.
His adviser wasn't much help, he said.
"I had so many questions, I had a hard time making decisions on classes," Beachy said. "You'd ask them some questions, and they'd always refer you to someone else."
As freshmen and sophomores examine the spring timetable in preparation for upcoming advising sessions, some have specific questions about courses, major requirements and the enrollment process.
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center, said the center's advisers were well-versed in KU procedures and course requirements.
Most of the center's advisers are familiar with KU classes from a student perspective as well. The majority of the center's advisers have master's degrees from the University, Tuttle said. New advisers receive training on reading the timetable, advising students about deadlines for adding and dropping classes and other enrollment procedures.
A new adviser's training begins during freshman orientation. New advisers work
in group sessions with incoming freshmen led by experienced advisers, Tuttle said. They don't begin to work with students one-on-one until they have been observed and approved by another adviser, she said.
Lynn Mosteller, academic adviser in the center, organizes programs to educate advisers about student issues. Advisers meet for 90 minutes once a month to hear speakers on the specific concerns of a variety of student groups, including students with disabilities, minority students and student athletes.
Students are always free to request a new adviser, and students occasionally do that. Mosteller said. The requests are always granted, she said.
"It doesn't have any negative repercussions for the student at all," she said.
Tuttle said the center hadn't received more than a couple such requests per semester since its opening two years ago.
The center has seven full-time advisers, seven faculty advisers, two part-time advisers and three part-time graduate student advisers.
Volunteers help educate community about pets
Tuttle said she would encourage students who felt their advisers couldn't answer questions about a particular school or major to talk with advisers or faculty in that area.
"Students should always feel free to go beyond their adviser to look for those answers," she said.

Playful dogs and lazy cats keep Amy Tramill and her volunteers company throughout the day.
About 550 animals fill the pawpainted Lawrence Humane Society building, 1805 E. 19th St., said Tramill, humane society volunteer coordinator. The humane society takes care of animals from rabbits and gerbils to dogs and cats until they are adopted
Volunteers do more than just play with the animals. Tramill said.
Suzy Kujawa, Atchison sophomore,
recently became a volunteer.
"Some animals eventually retreat to their cage," she said. "Volunteers can sit in a chair and brush them, walk them, bathe them or whatever they want to do."
"I have always liked animals," she said. "I want to help make them more comfortable while they are waiting for a home."
"They bring animals to Hastings book readings, nursing homes, Borders or to any of the many places we have open invitations," she said.
The humane society also provides pet facilitators to make it known to the community there are pets available for adoption. The facilitators also answer questions about adopting pets.
Kujawa said that of all the jobs offered to volunteers, she was most interested in taking animals into the community.
"It is important because it gets the word out," Kujawa said. "If people are informed, then they will be more likely to adopt one of the animals."
Tramill said education and raising money were also important jobs for volunteers.
The humane society has numerous fund-raisers, Tramill said. They include the Pawsible Dream Auction, The Mutt and Strutt Walk and Santa Paws Pet Pics, plus other smaller events to raise money throughout the year.
For those who enjoy speaking in the community, there is a position Humane Educators, Tramill said.
The position entails representing the shelter in schools, area outreach programs, information booths, satellite adoption programs and other areas around the community, she said.
Tramill recommended that students become volunteers.
"We are like their little refuge," she said. "It makes them feel good that they made an animal's day."
It is also a great way for students to get involved in community service, Kujawa said. Volunteers are not required to work a set number of hours each week. Tramill said volunteers could come in anytime they wanted.
Kujawa said she was amazed at the variety of jobs offered to the volunteers.
"We have people that come in once a month, a couple of times a year or sometimes four or five times a week," Tramill said. "It is really up to the volunteer."
"I don't see animals anymore that are homeless," she said. "I see animals that are going to get a home."
Volunteering can put things into perspective, Tramill said.
Practice can help conquer fear

When Matt Bloom speaks in front of a crowd, he doesn't feel well. His heart beats fast, his hands sweat and he can barely talk
Bloom. Middletown, N.J. senior, like many, is afraid of speaking in public.
"I was giving a speech about the effects of Ritalin and I couldn't talk," he said. "The teacher had to turn off the camera three times, I said 'I need to go outside to breathe' and I barbed—everywhere."
Ryan Spaulding, graduate teaching assistant in communications studies, said the fear of speaking in public was stronger than the fear of death. He said people could overcome the fear in various ways like listening to relaxing music, not stressing about it and saying the speech out loud beforehand. The latter line is practice.
"The bottom line is practice, practice, practice," Spaulding said.
Paulding also tried to ease students' minds by putting a chair near the podium in case a
He said he saw a lot of students the first day of class who were nervous to speak, so Spaulding did various things to try to help.

"There is no perfect situation,
but I try to help." he said.
But a chair wouldn't help Bloom and neither would-practicing, so he made the commute to Johnson County Community College just to take a speech class hoping it would help his fear—but it didn't.
Bloom said last year during his speech on Ritalin he had to leave the room because he felt physically sick to his stomach.
"I did a few speeches earlier in the semester and I was pretty good," Bloom said. "The class even laughed. But when I did a serious subject, I got sick."
He said he got sick because his speech was personal and he wanted to do well.
Brenden Yeager, Blue Springs, Mo., sophomore, said
Spaulding said he hadn't seen anyone vomit in his class but thought students shared a fear of speaking for a number of reasons. He said students often dreaded speaking because of lack of experience or they might feel nervous standing in front of their peers, fearing they are being judged.

Many students misunderstand music therapy
When I say I study music therapy at the University of Kansas, people always ask me the same question: "What is there to cheer about? Many students at the
music therapy?" Many students at the University are not aware that such a degree is offered. Surprisingly, many of them have never heard about music therapy before.
One cannot describe music therapy without a definition of music. Music is a series of sounds and silences organized through time, defined by humans as music. One of the most important characteristics of music is its pervasiveness in our daily life. Everything we do involves music in one way or another. We listen to music when we drive, clean the house, exercise and study. We also use it to mark important events when we sing at football games, at weddings and funerals.
Music brings mean-
Music brings meanings to certain circumstances. For instance, sound and musical effects always accompany the visual effects in movies. Consequently, the availability, accessibility and familiarity of music in our culture are what make music therapy powerful and nonthreatening. Incorporated with applications by a qualified professional music therapist, it becomes a viable and effective therapeutic medium.

So what exactly is music therapy? It is an established health profession similar to occupational therapy and physical therapy. Music therapists are board certified professionals who use music in therapeutic interventions to change behaviors. The goal of music therapy is to enhance the quality of life by developing, maintaining or remedating physical, psychological, cognitive and social functioning. Music therapists work with persons of all ages across a range of abilities and disabilities. They design their programs based on individual assessment, treatment planning and ongoing program evaluation.
KU has a long tradition in music therapy. It began in 1946 with the first graduate music therapy program in the United States. The faculty members are all renowned researchers here and abroad. All of them are active members of the national professional organization, American Music Therapy Association. The association is a new organization resulting from the unification of the American Association for Music Therapy, founded in 1971, and the National Association for Music Therapy, founded in 1950.
Getting a degree in music therapy is not an easy task. The curriculum is very demanding. Students have to take several courses that examine the influence of music on behavior. In addition, they take classes in music theory and history, conducting and instrument performance. They learn how to play guitar, percussion and band instruments. Moreover, music therapy students have to take courses in the biological and behavioral sciences. One of the degree requirements is that the students complete four semesters of clinical work and a six-month clinical internship upon completion of all required coursework. At the end of the clinical internship, the students qualify for taking the music therapy board certification exam.
The music therapy students at the University have their own music therapy organization, called Music Therapy Student Association. The purpose of this group is to expand the knowledge and awareness of music therapy to the KU student body and the Lawrence community through related activities. The group is open to all KU students who are interested in promoting and learning about music therapy. The members organize many activities such as outreach community projects and local performances. Activities planned for this semester include performance recitals and singing carols at local nursing homes. The group invites and plays host to guest speakers who make presentations that are open to the KU community at large.
The group has its own Web page, which includes information about the music thera py program at the University and about future group projects. In addition, it includes links to other music therapy sites. The URL is http://www.ukans.edu/~mtsa. The group's officers are always willing to answer questions about music therapy.

Mask alters interaction at party
I did a little experiment last weekend. I went to a Masquerade Ball wearing a mask. Okay, so maybe you, the insightful reader, are saying to yourself, "Big friggin' deal!" Normally, I'd agree with you and scream at this piece of newsprint while I eat my corn flakes at 2 p.m. on a Wednesday. But, here he's the funny part — I was the only one! So, maybe I get a little too excited
when it comes to parties ...
especially theme parties ...
especially theme parties with
beautiful women. Yes,
I kept my precious mask on
and had a riot.
PETER KELLY
Now, I wasn't wearing just any mask, you see. My "magic mask" (as I like to call it) was gold and sparkled with only two eye holes and a small slit for the mouth. It turned out to be the perfect size to slip a cigarette through (which made my night), and I could drink my gin and wore through a straw. I also wore a black
bolo hat, so all you could see was a little blonde hair and my sideburns. This mask had no facial expression. It was a blank slate, giving absolutely nothing away about my face or personality. It was rather disconcerting for my mom, who could hear my voice but not see my wonderful, smiling face (OK, so those are her words). That moment, when I was cheerfully talking to an uncomfortable-looking Mom, was only a hint of what the remainder of my evening would be like.
Eric Ohisen
guest columnist
opinion@khanan.com
After walking in to the party and getting myself a drink, I went over to one of my buddies and introduced myself to the two young ladies he was speaking to. They both had slightly blank looks on their faces and shuffled their feet, afraid to maintain eye contact — the only part of my
face they could see — but also not knowing where else to look. After enjoying this for a moment or two, I raised my mask, smiled and quickly lowered it again. They both smiled back and looked considerably relieved.
Oddly enough, after showing my face only twice, I was accepted and treated normally by all of the friends of the three women on the dance floor. However, it was rather difficult to communicate with people. On the dance floor, I could use only body language. Facial expressions meant nothing; they were covered by the magic mask. Speaking to people posed another problem. I could use vocal inflections, but words took on multiple meanings without facial expressions to help communicate my intent.
Continuing on my merry way, I wandered down to the dance floor and up to three young ladies. At first they shied away, but after I started dancing and raised my mask for a moment, they became much more comfortable. We danced for a while, and more people joined us. I began dancing with one very attractive young lady, and, for the first time, I did not see an uncomfortable expression on her face. We danced for a while and spoke words of true love: "So, uh, what's your name? Oh, cool. I'm Eric. Um, where are you from?"
I met a lot of people that night, but it does me no good now. I saw one yesterday on campus, and I tried to say hello. She just gave me a blank stare, as if she'd never seen my face before. Of course, she hadn't. I even got the phone number of a certain young lady that night. However, I'm sure you're asking yourself the same question I'm asking myself: "Is it because of the mask, or is it because she couldn't see my face?" I guess I'll find out when I pick her up this weekend.

Editorial
Diversity is more than numbers
Universities must focus on diversity's real merit.
Earlier this year, the University of Wisconsin at Madison doctored a brochure cover photo by inserting the image of an African-American student into an all-white crowd — a sobering reminder that universities across the nation are pursuing an image of ethnic diversity for the wrong reasons.
Multiculturalism should be promoted for the sake of multiculturalism, not for the sake of image. Diverse ethnicity undoubtedly benefits a student body by bringing a wide variety of opinions, customs and backgrounds together. However, more than a few universities use the idea of diversity primarily as a selling point when recruiting new students.
In the case of the University of Wisconsin, the Office of University Publications spent the summer looking for photos that represented diversity in the student body before settling on a cut and paste portrayal. Unfortunately, the student body at the university lacks the diversity that the brochure cover sought to show. Fewer than 10 percent of the school's 40,000 students were non-white in the fall of 1999, and only a little more than 2 percent of the student body was African American. This blatant manipulation of the truth indicates a larger trend among competitive universities toward an obsession with statistics.
The University of Kansas, for example, promotes itself as an ethnically diverse institution with students from every state and 100 nations. The University's Web site and promotional brochures picture students of various ethnic backgrounds smiling and laughing. Campus, therefore, looks and appears to be diverse, but how diverse is a student body in which two of every three students are from Kansas?
Statistics on minority enrollment have become a major selling point in the sales pitch universities give to prospective students. The focus needs to shift back to the primary reason multiculturalism enhances an academic institution
— that students benefit from exposure to perspectives, ideas and cultures different from their own.

New library offers more resources
By Katie Teske
Special to the Kansan
The new Music and Dance Library isn't just for music and dance majors.
With a new music listening system and one of the leading music collection in the Midwest, the library offers something for everyone.
Located on the upper level of the south addition to Murphy Hall, the library is about three times the size of the former Thomas Gorton Music Library. It contains about 111,000 scores, books, sound recordings, videos, microforms and serials. The library also offers access to sophisticated research sources, including CD-ROM periodical indexes and dissertation abstracts.
"A lot of people have been really impressed with how much we've grown," said James Abraham, Lenexa senior and library employee.
Abraham said although he was not a music student, he had used the library for personal interests, such as looking at biographies and
ancient Greek music.
Abraham said the biggest advantage of the new library was that it gathered music materials, which had been in 11 different locations, into one place. Dance materials also have been added.
"The overall environment is much more conducive to study," said Vic Cardell, music and dance librarian, adding that the library had good lighting and offered more study areas than the old library.
The library holds the leading music collection in the Midwest—the Thomas Gorton Music Collection. This collection is named for Thomas Gorton, dean of fine arts from 1950 to 1975. The library also has an extensive collection of performance and study scores for voice, solo instruments, and large and chamber ensembles.
A new media system, the Hale Media System, allows remote-controlled listening and viewing from 30 locations within the library, including the seminar room, the group study room and 28 media
MUSIC AND DANCE LIBRARY
Students and faculty are invited to attend public meetings to discuss the future of the library. Meeting times are listed on the library's Web site at http://www2.lib.ukans.edu/strate.mnibrary.unl.edu/form

carrels. The media system is named for Joe and Joyce Hale, who donated money to the KU Endowment Association.
The Hale Media System has a staff-controlled media console containing playback components for DVDs, CDs, LPs, videos, and audiotapes, and a computerized switcher to allow one or several users to enjoy the same material simultaneously. The 28 media carrels are furnished with MIDI music keyboards, computers with music and dance software, and computer and video monitors.
Abraham said some students didn't like that the new media system was staff-controlled instead of self-controlled. Also, there had been some bugs in the system, but he said once students adapted and the bugs were worked out, students would be just as comfortable with the new system as the previous one.
Another change from the old library is the reference service. Cardell said lack of space had prevented the library from having a reference desk before.
"There's been a significant increase," Abraham said about student use of the library. "It's usually so busy, student assistants don't have time to reshelve materials."
The formal dedication of the Murphy Hall addition, including the Music and Dance Library, will be in February.

"I think she's an excellent teacher," said Swain Adam, Iowa City, Iowa, senior. "I understand what she is doing really well."
Pierotti said it was his understanding that professors were to find their new replacements if they could not teach for medical reasons.
"She's as qualified as anyone else
in this department to teach this course," Pierotti said of his wife, adding that another qualified professor in the department had a time conflict and couldn't teach the class.
The faculty handbook, however,
states that professors who are
unable to teach their classes must
communicate any arrangements to
the dean or chairperson of the
department.
"Such arrangements are subjec
to the approval of the appropriate chairperson or dean," the handbook stated.
University officials declined to comment on the situation, but Pierotti gave his version of their position.
"Their official thing is that they're concerned about my health, and they want to make sure my classes are covered," he said.
Pierotti said he didn't believe that was the real reason.
"I have a distinct feeling that this is an attempt by the University to harass and intimidate me." he said.
harass and intimidate me," he said. Pierotti said he had used three guest lecturers for three weeks during the spring.
"The administration said nothing," he said. "Now after a week and a half, they're harassing me about Dr. Anne giving lectures."

Ambassadors aid in campus visits
Bv Debra Steele
Special to the Kansan
Nicole Mohman walked backward down Jayhawk Boulevard, rattling off KU trivia as she led a group of wide-eye high schoolers and their parents around campus.
Mohlman, Beloit sophomore, is one of 80 KU Ambassadors— volunteer students who give prospective students tours of the University.
"This is my first semester giving tours," she said. "I was a little nervous at first. I haven't tripped yet. That is my biggest fear."
Ten tours are given each week. Each ambassador gives at least one tour a week. Throughout the semester, ambassadors also work on question-answer panels and help with junior and senior visitation days.
After students are accepted as ambassadors, they receive a binder containing information about campus buildings and organizations.
"We work with some of the best and brightest students on campus," said Kelly Burnley, assistant director for On-Campus Programs and one of the supervisors of the KU Ambassadors. "Each ambassador goes through two sets of interviews. They are chosen because of their
enthusiasm and love for KU."
The ambassador program was started in 1980 by Paul Buskirk, who is now the associate director of the Athletics Corporation. He worked with former Chancellor Gene Budig to create a program that would get KU students involved with prospective students and their families.
In the fall of 1998, KU Ambassadors became a registered student organization with the KU Organizations and Leadership Office. The program is supervised by a graduate assistant and the assistant director for On-Campus Programs, but is a student-run organization.
Last spring more than 5,000 prospective students participated in campus tours. More than 60 percent of new KU students have had one of the tours.
"The Office of Admissions and Scholarships depends on the energy an dedication of the student ambassadors as part of our recruitment program," said Lisa Pinamonti, Associate Director of Admissions and Scholarships. "They are the key to the campus visit."
Students interested in becoming KU Ambassadors may call the office at 864-5819.

Experts arrive in Uganda to help fight Ebola virus
The Associated Press
GULU, Uganda - The highly contagious virus that has killed 41 people in Uganda has been identified as a strain of Ebola last seen in southern Sudan in 1979, U.S. experts said Thursday, raising speculation it may have been brought by Ugandan rebels based in Sudan.
pierre Rollin, the leader of a U.S. Centers for Disease Control team, said the virus was Ebola Sudan, one of three strains of the deadly hemorrhagic fever.
At least 41 people have died of Ebola and doctors fear 70 more may be infected, said Okat Lokach, the Gulu district health director.
Doctors and nurses immediately took steps to minimize infections and a radio campaign targeted the largely rural and illiterate population, informing them of what precautions to take.
Since then, experts from World Health Organization, aid workers from Doctors without Borders and investigators from the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have advised the Ugandans.
Four epidemiologists and two microbiologists from the Atlanta organization brought laboratory equipment to separate those infected from people with similar symptoms, and to try to determine the source of the outbreak.
Three American women injured in Sri Lanka suicide bombing
There is no cure for Ebola, but patients treated with aggressive rehydration therapy have a chance of survival, Dr. Guenael Rodier, the World Health Organization team leader, said. Typically, between 80 percent and 90 percent of Ebola victims die, but Rodier said as many as 50 percent of the patients in Gulu may recover because of good, early medical attention.
The Associated Press
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Shortly before her new Cabinet, a suicide bomber blew himself up yesterday, killing two other people and wounding 21 — including three American women.
The military said the bomber was a Tamil Tiger rebel who hoped
to attack members of President Chandrika Kumaratunga's Cabinet. The president campaigned for the Oct. 10 parliamentary elections on a promise to crush the Tamil rebellion.
"From now on you may see more and more rebel attacks in Colombo," Harry Goonetilleke, a former air force chief, said after
the bombing.
The bomber triggered explosives wrapped to his body after a police patrol challenged him. He died immediately, while a policeman and a civilian died later, said Dr. Hector Weerasinghe, director of the National Hospital.
The wounded Americans were identified in hospital records as
Pat Monteleone, Nansie Jubitz and Barbara Barker; Weerasinghe said they were out of danger. He said Barker suffered a chest wound, while the others suffered minor injuries.
Two of the women were volunteers for an American technical aid program, and the third was the wife of an official involved in the
program. Hospital records did not show the women's hometowns, and the U.S. Embassy declined to give any details.
"We saw a soldier with a rifle pointing to the park ... and then two seconds later there was a massive explosion and we were all hurt," Jubitz told local television. The bombing occurred near
Colombo's main recreation park in an area with popular tourist shops and office complexes. It is about two miles from where the Cabinet was sworn in.
Kumaratunga, whose People's Alliance won the parliamentary elections, went ahead with the installation of her 43-member Cabinet despite the bombing.

Clinton warns Cole bombers: We'll find you
Tribune Media Services
NORFOLK, Va. — Flanked by giant warships as gray as the sky above, President Clinton paid tribute to the USS Cole's 17 dead and 39 injured sailors Wednesday as victims of terror who "rose to freedom's challenge."
At a somber ceremony in which some of the wounded watched as they lay in hospital gurneys, the
PETER M. BERNARD
Clinton: honored the USS Cole's 17 dead and 39 injured sailors Wednesday
"You will not have a safe harbor." Clinton warned "We will find you. Justice will prevail."
Defense Secretary William Cohen called it "an act of pure evil."
Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh provided the first sign that such talk may be more than just bluster. In an interview televised by a Qatar satellite station, he said his investigators have found the rented house of two men "who carried out the crime" by steering a boat laden with explosives alongside the destroyer last week.
In his television interview, Yemeni President Saleh was asked about reports that the two men he believes were involved in the attack might have been Saudi citizens.
"One witness said the accent was a Saudi accent," he said. "They had to be Arabs because witnesses said they were performing (Muslim) prayers. They may be Yemenis or other Arabs."
General defends refueling decision
Middle East port had best conditions out of all choices
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Middle East port where the US Cole met disaster was the best place to refuel Navy ships in a region full of terrorist "rats' nests," retired Marine Gen. Anthony Zinnia said yesterday.
"It was my decision," the former commander of the region told senators a week after the bombing in Amen, Yemen, that killed 17 sailors. "I pass that buck on to nobody."
Zinnia, who retired earlier this year, was commander in chief of US. Central Command in December 1998 when the Pentagon contracted for refueling services in the Yemen port.
He was the first witness in a two-day hearing by the Senate Armed Services Committee to review how the Defense Department, State Department and other agencies came to approve use of the port of Amen, despite its reputation as a safe haven for terrorists.
"The American people are entitled to know the facts and understand how these decisions are made," said the committee's chairman, Sent John Warner, R-Va.
"The one question I keep hearing from the families of the crew of the US Cole. is: 'Why Yemen?'"
Zinnia said he and the rest of the American government were aware that terrorists use Yemen as a transit route.
"Their coast is a sieve," he said.
Yet there was no better alternative for ships that have to refuel while moving to and from the Persian Gulf, Zinnia said, listing some of the other options the Navy had.
"Sudan? Obviously not," he said. "Saudi Arabia? Back in 1997, when we were making this decision, we had just had two bombings in Saudi Arabia. We lost 24 people."
"I don't want anyone to

Africa and just across the Gulf of Amen from Yemen, had been used. But that refueling contract was terminated in 1997 because the facilities were unsatisfactory and the threat conditions were far worse.

US. intelligence had not detected specific threats to American interests in Amen, and the threat conditions in Yemen, he said, were actually better than we had elsewhere, including Saudi Arabia.
Zinnie told the committee that he checked on the refueling arrangements in a series of visits to Amen between May 1998 and May 2000.
Each time, Zinnia said, it was clear to him that the Yemen government was sincere in wanting American help in controlling its coastline and fighting terrorism.
He said he would oppose any suggestion that US. withhold aid from Yemen unless it is certified to be cooperating in the investigation of the Cole bombing.
In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, the United States gave Yemen roughly $3 million for military training, preparation for the planned 2001 election and removal of land mines from its civil war — plus $20 million worth of wheat flour and other commodities, the State Department said.

terrorists: Afghanistan with the Tailbone; Sudan; Somalia," he said. "We don't need Yemen to become another one. We need to provide every incentive to make sure they don't."

He emphatically denied, however, that the military overlooked security problems because it wanted to improve relations with the government of Yemen.
"I don't want anyone to think we ever, in any instance, took a risk for the purpose of a better relationship with a country and put a soldier, sailor, airman or Marine at risk for that reason." Zinnia said.

The Navy announced it recovered the last four bodies of sailors killed in the Thursday, Oct. 12 blast. Thirteen bodies already had been flown to the United States, and the final four will be returned home soon.
FBI director Louis Freeh, who was in Yemen for talks with President Ali Abdullah Saleh, toured the crime scene, calling it a "tangled mess of metal and wire."
- The Pentagon named two men as co-chairs for an independent investigation into the bombing, with emphasis on improving security. They are retired Army general William Crouch, whose last job was vice chief of staff of the Army, and Harold Gehman, former commander of Joint Forces Command at the Cole's home port of Norfolk, Va.
Attorney General Janet Reno told a news conference that the United States is doing all it can to help the Yemeni police in their investigation. She would not say whether any eventual prosecution might take place in Yemen. The United States apparently has no arrangements with Yemen to extradite suspects, but could still seek to prosecute anyone arrested for involvement in the bombing.

Subway Series hearkens history
World Series
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The last time there was a Subway Series, tokens cost 15 cents instead of $1.50, and the underground ride between ballparks took a little longer than it will startling Saturday.
Ebbets Field in Brooklyn is gone, and so are the Dodgers. But 44 years ago, they played one last memorable Subway Series against the New York Yankees — punctuated by a perfect game, the only no-hitter in World Series history.
That series ended one of the most memorable eras in baseball history.
Seven times in 10 years from 1947 to 1956, the World Series was played entirely in New York, the Yankees against either the Giants or Dodgers. The city was wired for those confrontations but not nearly as hyper as it seems for the one coming up between the Yankees and Mets.
"When I was a kid, it was always a New York World Series, mainly the Dodgers and the Yankees but, on occasion, the Giants and the
Yankees," said Yankee manager Joe Torre, who grew up in Brooklyn and got 1956 World Series tickets from his brother, Frank, then playing for the Milwaukee Braves.
"I was at the last World Series
I was at the la that the Dodgers and Yankees played here in 1956, and it was crazy, but it's much more crazy now," Torre said. "This
is much different than it was 40 years ago because the media is so much greater and the game has taken on a much larger meaning.
"But I have a feeling this city is not going to be the same for the next 10 days and maybe for some time after that."
Don Zimmer, now Torre's bench coach, was a member of those Dodger teams.
"I felt when we teed it up in spring training, we'd win the National League and they'd win the American League and we'd get at it in the World Series," he said.
"It worked out so much that when I got here in '96 I was not aware of the fact that the Yankees had not won a World Series in 18 years. They were in it every year."
That was how Torre remembered it, too.
"The Yankees won every year," the manager said, "and everyone was trying to knock them off their pedestal."
The Dodgers finally succeeded in 1955, winning the seventh game on a 2-0 shutout by Johnny Podres. A year later, they were back for another shot. Zimmer was an observer, on the Dodgers bench recovering from a beaning. Brooklyn got permission from the commissioner's office to allow him to be in uniform.
"I called myself a professional cheerleader, like I am today," he said. "It was a tremendous time. It was something very special."
In Game 4, the Yankees used home runs by Mickey Mantle and Hank Bauer to beat Carl Erskine 6-2. Now the Series was tied, and the stage was set for one of the most memorable games in baseball history.
Stengel chose to start Larsen, the gangly right-hander the Yankees called "Gooney Bird." in the fifth game against first-game winner Sal Magle. "I hope I don't screw it up like Game 2.' I went out and warmed up, wondering 'Why me?" Larsen remembered thinking.
Larsen sailed through the Dodgers' lineup, 27 batters up, 27 batters down. Pinch hitter Dale Mitchell was the last batter.
"My legs were shaking." Larsen said. "I thought, 'Just get me through one more.' To get that close and mess it up, they'd run me out of the ballpark."
The Game 7 victory. by the Yankees was a masterpiece overshadowed by Larsen's perfect game.
After his 97th pitch, Berra bounced out from behind the plate and leaped into his arms to celebrate perfection.
Mets' pitcher gets nod for series opener
"Nobody had ever done that before," said Yankees pitcher Johnny Kucks. "That was the No. 1 item in that World Series."
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Al Leiter took his Game 1 starting assignment for the Subway Series in stride, and that was as big a reason as any that the New York Mets tapped him for the duty.
"Maybe I'm missing something," Leiter said yesterday. "It's certainly an honor to pitch Game 1. But my belief is that if you pitch any of the first three games, you're scheduled to get two starts. It's nice to pitch the opener, but I don't put much credence in it."
The fact that Leiter isn't overwhelmed by the assignment, as well as his obvious talent, contributed to the Mets' decision.
"He's been there," pitching coach Dave Wallace said. "He has the experience. He knows what it's about, and he's relishing the opportunity."
Saturday's opener.
Mike Hampton, who started the opener in the first two postseason series, will pitch Game 2. Rick Reed and Bobby J. Jones will once again be scheduled to start Games 3 and 4.
Hampton went 2-10 in 16 scoreless innings to win the National League Championship Series MVP against St. Louis. He threw 120 pitches in Monday night's clincher and would be on regular rest for
"My dream was always to pitch in the World Series, not pitch Game 1 of the World Series," Hampton said.
Leiter hasn't pitched since Game 2 of the National League Championship Series on Oct.12, giving him eight days between starts. That factored into manager Bobby
"Al has followed Mike all year and Mike pitched the last game, so it is Al's turn to pitch." Valentine said. "Dave thought one more day would be a long time for AI."
tored into manager Bob Valentine's decision.
Mets
Leiter's big-game experience also factored into the decision. He pitched in the 1993 World Series with Toronto and in 1997 with Florida, when he started Game 7.
His postseason numbers aren't overwhelming — 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA — and his only victory came in relief. But his teams have won six of his nine starts and blown leads by the bullpen have cost him a couple of victories.
Leiter has also won in front of sellout crowds at Yankee Stadium the past two seasons and has a 2.99 career ERA against the Yankees.
"Obviously, AI has been in this position before and not been overwhelmed by the crowd, the pressure or the situation," said reliever Dennis Cook, a teammate of Leiter's in Florida. "Actually, I think he thrives on it and feeds off it."
Leiter will tap into that experience when he takes the field Saturday night against the team with which he made his major league debut in 1987.
"There are a lot of extraneous distractions with all the passion and the fans and the media," said Leiter, who has been inundated with ticket requests. "But you have to tune all that out and focus on how do I get (Chuck) Knoblauch out, how do I pitch to (Derek) Jeter, what do I throw (Paul) O'Neill on 3-2. Your whole mindset has to be on the game plan."
This Series has a deeper impact on Leiter, who grew up in Toms River, N.J., cheering for the Mets. He was drafted by the Yankees in 184 and played parts of three seasons for the team.
He came back to New York before the 1988 season, when the Marlins traded him to the Mets in part of their post-World Series salary purge.
"It'll be even more special because I started my career there and got traded here," Leiter said. "My career has come full circle. It's exciting. I understand the emotion of the fans and how they feel."

Jayhawks dive into season today
Swimming alumni invited to cheer team during annual meet
The Kansas men's and women's swim teams dive out of the blocks for the first time this season in the annual Crimson and Blue Meet at 5 p.m. today in Robinson Natatorium.
To add a little ripple to the festivities, the captains split the squad into two teams. Each team will choose what races the other team will swim.
In addition, coinciding with Kansas homecoming weekend, the Kansas swimming alumni have
KU SWIMMING
been invited to attend the meet and root on their Jayhawk brethren.
The alumni may compete in a few separate races after the standard 13-event program.
Aside from the festive atmosphere, the swimmers' performances will help determine which events they compete in when the Jayhawks play host to Texas A&M in a dual meet Thursday and the Big 12 Conference Relays a week from today.
Both first-year men's coach Doug Dickinson and third-year women's coach Cathy Burgess field young teams this year.
Dickinson takes the reins of a team that includes 12 freshmen on its 29-man roster. Sophomore standout Brian Soria swam the 50- and 1,500-meter races at the U.S. Olympic Trials at Indiana University in August. Senior Rob Kelly and senior co-captain Jon Reyes will provide leadership and experience in the backstroke and freestyle.
Burgess' squad is headlined by the return of four swimmers, including senior co-captain Carolyn Grevers, who also participated in the U.S. Olympic Trials. Their experience will be needed with the addition of nine freshmen to the 26-person squad.

No.1 Cornhuskers battle Bears
By Allan Davis

Kansan sportswriter
Baylor (2-4, 0-3) at No. 1 Nebraska (6-0, 3-0)
LA PARRILLA
This game matches possibly the worst team in the Big 12 Conference against possibly the best. The Cornhuskers are No. 1 in the nation in rushing, averaging 366.5 yards per game. Dan Alexander is No. 2 in rushing in the Big 12 with an average of 112.7 yards per game. Eric Crouch is No. 4, with 88.3 yards per game, and Correll Buckhalter is No. 5, with an average of 79.8 yards per game. Baylor starts 10 freshmen and sophomores and is No. 93 in the
Baylor starts 10 freshmen and sophomores and is No.93 in the nation in rushing defense.
Last week, the Big 12's leading rusher, Cyclone Ennis Haywood, sat out with an injury. His replacement, freshman Mike Wagner, rushed for 170 yards on 26 carries — a tribute to the Iowa State offensive line.
LATIN AMERICAN CUISINE
Texas A&M quarterback Mark Farris threw for 311 yards last week against Baylor. Farris has completed 113 of 183 passes this season, but running back JaMar Toombs shouldn't be overlooked. Toombs has eight touchdowns this year.
Missouri is seeking to rebound from last week's loss to the Jayhawks, but it might not be able to do that at Texas.
**missouri** (2-4, 1-2) at Texas (4-2, 2-1)
Missouri wide receiver Eric Spencer had eight catches for 153 yards and a touchdown last week against the Jayhawks. He gives quarterback Darius Outlaw a second target to go with leading receiver Justin Gage.

Texas held Colorado to 133 yards total offense last Saturday, and Major Applewhite had 308 yards passing. The Longhorns should be a tough fight for the Tigers.

Last Saturday against Oklahoma,
Jonathan Beasley tied the K-State record for touchdowns at 14 but had his worst day of the season passing. K-State needs to put together a string of victories if it is to climb back into contention for a BCS bid.
Last Saturday against Nebraska,
Red Raider quarterback Kliff

only 165 yards passing. He will
attempt to take advantage of the K-

Kansas ranked fifth in Big 12 poll
By Zac Hunter
By Zac Hunter
sports@kansas.com
Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas women's basketball team is starting out in unfamiliar territory this season — the team isn't ranked in the ton four.
Big 12 Conference coaches preseason rankings came out Wednesday, and the Hawks are ranked No. 5, one spot below where they finished last year.
Coach Marian Washington said that her team might be able to sneak up and surprise some teams this year.
"We will take this opportunity as
underdogs and let it help motivate us throughout the year," she said.
However, Washington's players don't see themselves sneaking up on anyone. Instead, they see themselves imposing their will on other teams.
"I think we're going to be able to run it up and down the floor really quickly and push the tempo," said senior guard Jennifer Jackson. "I think we're going to kick some butts."
In addition to the relatively low rankings, no Kansas players were on it. The closest was senior forward Jaclyn Johnson, who received votes for the
team.
Johnson is the team's top rebounder from last season with 8.1 per game, complementing her 11.2 points per game. Johnson is working on adding another dimension to her game - the outside shot.
Washington said that if Johnson could hit from the outside, it would open up the offense and possibly help make up for the loss of outside shooting that 2000 graduate Suzi Raymant contributed to the team.
'Leading the pack again this year in the coaches' poll is Iowa State. Iowa
State was the Big 12, along with Oklahoma and Texas, and won the Big 12 tournament.
Iowa State's position at the top of the poll is because of preseason Big 12 Player of the Year Angle Welle. She is the conference's returning leading scorer and rebounder, averaging 15.4 points and 8.6 rebounds per game last season.
Kansas starts its exhibition season Wednesday, Nov. 8 against the Basketball Travelers and kicks off the regular season Saturday, Nov. 18 against Grambling State.

Buffaloes yearning for victory
With 1-5 record Colorado in danger of losing bowl bid
8v Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
In the recent past when Colorado and Kansas have met, it's been the Jayhawks who were desperate for a win. This year it's the Buffaloes who are in dire straits.
Kansas' opponent, recently a consistent Big 12 Conference power, is mired in a 1-5 record, 1-2 in the Big 12. It's true that the Buffaloes have had a difficult schedule the fifth-toughest schedule in Division I-A.
toughtest schedule in Division I-A. But no matter the reason, a 1-5 record still generates criticism. A 1-5 record is particularly unappreciated at Colorado, which had the 10th best Division I-A record in the '90s at 87-29-4 and claimed the national title in
1990.
However, this year the Buffaloes are in danger of missing out on a postseason bowl bid. They need to win all of their remaining games to manage the 6-5 record required to earn a bowl bid.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said tomorrow's game was a crucial game for Colorado.
"Everybody can put the numbers together," he said. "Colorado had a very strong bowl history, and this would make six losses. So you know that this is an extremely important football game for them because I'm sure that they feel as though on paper they could win out to the Nebraska game for a bowl ride, if they were to beat Kansas."
Part of Colorado's problem this year is that it is 111th in the nation in passing defense, yielding 282.3 yards per contest. Any quarterback would love a 282 yard day. Texas' Major Applewhite had 308 yards passing against Colorado last Saturday.
The Buffaloes also have offensive problems. Last Saturday, Texas held them to 133 vards total offense.
The Buffaloes have a three-way quarterback controversy. Three quarterbacks have each started two of Colorado's six games. Zac Colvin, a sophomore, started the first two games but was relieved by junior Bobby Pesavento in both games, both of which the Buffalo losst.
More information
Read more about the homecoming game.
See page 1B
A statistical breakdown of the game.
See page 9B
More Big 1.2 football.
See page 10A
Pesavento started the next two games, both of which Colorado lost. True freshman Craig Ochs started the next two games, winning at Texas A&M but being relieved by Colvin last Saturday against Texas after completing only 11 of 32 passes for 69 yards and two interceptions. Ochs is tentatively scheduled to start tomorrow.
Colorado coach Gary Barnett said that his
team was hindered by injuries.
"We've got a lot of injuries, and we're pretty banged up right now," he said. "We had a number of injuries, especially on defense, during the course of the [Texas] game that really handcuffed us. We were put together with tape and tried to get a secondary together. Let's put it this way: The team we take to Kansas will be a lot of young guys, and most of them won't be shaving."
In addition to the injuries on defense, Colorado's top two rushers have both been hobbled by injuries. Corten Johnson, who leads the Buffs in total rushing yards and averages 88 yards per game, has a shoulder contusion and turf toe. He is listed as questionable for tomorrow's game. True freshman Marcus Houston, who is averaging 110.3 yards per game rushing, has a hip injury and will not play tomorrow. He has already missed three games.
Houston and Kansas junior wide receiver Roger Ross attended the same high school in Denver.

Big 12 berth on line in Kansas soccer's Baylor Bear battle
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
With its first-ever berth in the Big 12 Conference tournament still remaining, the Kansas women's soccer team is entering what coach Mark Francis calls a crucial weekend in the Lone Star State.
The weekend begins when the Jayhawks play a non-conference game against North Texas at 7 onight in Denton, Texas, tonight before squaring off with a conference foe, Baylor, at 1 p.m. Sunday in Waco.
Francis said the game against North Texas would be crucial for the team's morale.
"We can win that, then go into Sunday with more confidence. I think if we win one more, we can go to the tournament," he said.
As Francis emphasized, confidence may be the key factor for Kansas because the Jayhawks have lost their three previous games.
"We came off a rough, disappointing weekend," assistant coach Donna Holyman said. "We've just been trying to get our confidence back."
Freshman midfielder Maggie Mason said the last two games were productive.
"If we can keep playing the way we've been playing in practice, we'll do well." she said.
"I'm looking forward to the next three weeks, the last three games of the season and the Big 12 Tournament, because I know we're going to do well," she said.
She said although Kansas needed to defeat one more conference foe to make the tournament, what the team really wanted was concluding the season with three consecutive victories.
North Texas (11-4, 3-1 Sun Belt) and Kansas have met three common opponents this season and had similar results. Both teams beat Texas Tech and lost to Texas A&M and Texas, showing they are at the same level.
But the main difference is finishing. Whereas the Eagles have produced 52 goals this season, Kansas has managed only 26 goals. Freshman forward Marilyn Marin, among the top scorers in the country, leads North Texas with 17 goals.
But this weekend's opponents don't look easy for the Jawhaws.
Baylor, is 4-0 all-time against Kansas. In their last meet,
the Bearers defeated Kansas 2-1 in Waco.
Baylor senior goalkeeper Dawn Greathouse leads all Big 12 goals in total saves with 105. With her performances against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State last weekend, Greathouse was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week during the week of Oct.9.

Jayhawks hope to muffle Colorado for second time
By Sarah Warren
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team is hoping the terrible twos won't be too terrible tomorrow night.
The Jayhawks play their second match against the Colorado Buffaloes and the second match of their "new" season. The match begins at 8 p.m. tomorrow in Boulder Colo.
In actuality, the Jayhawks are 12-7 overall and 3-7 in the Big 12 Conference. But Wednesday night's 3-0 home victory against Oklahoma snapped a five-match losing skid and gave Kansas a new outlook on the season.
In snapping that skid, the 'Hawks are only looking forward — one match down, 10 matches to go — with no looking back.
"We were never out of it," said Kylie Thomas, sophomore outside hitter. "But, to us this is a new
to us, this is a new season."
Although their mental slate may be clean, the box score from the Jayhawks' initial meeting with the Buffalooes still remains.
Kansas won a 3-2 decision last month in Lawrence, which gave the Jayhawks their first win against Colorado since 1987.
"It's a different environment, a
different altitude and a different ind of team from the last match."
Ray Bechard KU volleyball coach
In snapping a 25-match losing streak to Colorado, senior outside hitters Amy Myatt and Nancy Bell knocked down 22 and 18 kills, respectively, while freshman outside hitter Sarah Rome dove to 17 digs. The Jayhawks fought for more than two hours, eventually sending the Buffaloes back to Boulder with a Big 12 season-opening loss.
"It's a different environment, a different altitude and a different kind of team from the last match," Bechard said. "But I think it could go into five games again."
"I think it's going to be a tough match," he said. "I think you've got to prepare yourself for a two-to a two-and-a-half hour match."
Kansas is betting on another close one, this time in front of a Boulder crowd.
A long five games.
And this time, of course, Kansas is hoping the home team will suffer defeat.
"We know it's going to be a tough match, but all of our matches have been close," said Sara Kidd, senior outside hitter. "All of those close matches are winnable, we just need to take those games."
That's easier said than done, however, as the Biz 12 enters its second half of play.
"All the teams are trying to move higher into the standings," Thomas said. "All the games are going to be close."

Woman ready for position in pro female football league
I had a dream the other night that I played wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings. I was hauling in one-handed catches, dragging my myos as I laid out for hair marys in the end zone — even Randy Moss was impressed.
But Denny Green wasn't. He yanked me out of the game after my third touchdown, and I had to sit on the bench with a "No Girls Allowed" sign around my neck. Even in my dream Denny shot me down.
So now that I am awake, I'm considering moving on to bigger and better things. I am thinking about trying out for the Minnesota Vixens, one of 11 teams in the Women's Professional Football League that kicked off their first round of games last weekend and will play the second this weekend.
Yeah, you read that right: Women's pro football.
Thanks to a group of women who started brainstorming last year, women no longer have to settle for pompoms and an occasional powder puff game.
This is the real thing.
They started the league in the great state of Minnesota, which, with its array of women's sports ranging from professional basketball to college hockey, is almost more well-known for its women's sports than its 10,000 lakes — though I would argue that the Minneooota oos are a close third.
Well, with a slightly smaller ball and a rule banning blocking below the waist, it's the same old game. Each team plays a 10 game schedule and the best two advance to the championship game on Sunday, Feb. 4.
Maybe they won't hit the field and play as well as Minnesota Vikings stars Robert Smith or Cris Carter, but, after all, most will never have played organized football before heading to the pros. But at least they now have the opportunity — an opportunity they've deserved all along.
This is not the first time women have pushed for pigskin equality, wanting to grace the football field in pads and spikes instead of little leotards and out-of-control makeup.
There have been spurs of the league since the 1920s when women used to play during halftime of men's games. Between 1965 and 1970, when Patricia Barzi Palinkas became the first female to play on a men's semi-pro team, the WPFL expanded to include eight teams. But the league never really caught on and after slowly fading away, it finally disbanded in 1989 because of financial problems.
And it's not going to be easy to keep this league around either.
The women will have to gain some respect and break through the stereotypical chuckle that most people — namely men who still believe that the only reason women watch football is to check out the quarterbacks' butts — let out when they hear about women playing football because the league will rely on ticket sales and sponsors for funding.
However, gaining that respect shouldn't take too long because, coming from a former neighborhood football superstar, I can assure you that women can play ball.
I'll admit, it might take a while to get this league going, but once it does, watch out — the little girl next door might knock you down repeatedly, leaving you picking grass out of your teeth.
As for me, as soon as my bench max is up to 200 (what ... I'm a little scared of the bigger women), I am going to show off my mad football skills on the field in Minnesota.
So sorry, Denny.
You should have snatched me up when you had the chance.
Meyer is a Burnsville, Minn., senior in journalism.

Senior running back David Winbush eludes a Notre Dame defender. Although Kansas lost to Notre Dame at the beginning of the 1999 season, Winbush enjoyed a much better game against Colorado during Kansas' homecoming in 1998. He piled up 268 yards in Kansas' upset of the No. 17 Buffaloes. Kansan file photo
Memories a rush for Winbush
By Jason Franchuk
Kansan sportswriter
David Winbush remembers, and so do those teammates he has bragged to. The big question is whether Colorado still remembers, too.
Winbush has not looked at the tape of the 33-17 clobbering of Colorado during Kansas' homecoming two years ago for awhile. He does not want to think karma has brought him to this point, the final match-up between himself and the Colorado defense, who have tried to ransack each other the past two years.
Is he supposed to avenge his struggles of last year — what he calls the year of the fall of David Winbush — by having another big game at home against Colorado?
If Winbush was a deer against Colorado in 1996, running swiftly past the Buffaloes for 268 yards, then last year he was running through the forest with a fluorescent orange
vest on as the opposition hunted him down.
"I got them that year, and then they beat me up pretty good last year," Winchub said in the locker room after Kansas defeated Missouri last Saturday and improved to 3-3. "Now we'll get one more chance to see each other."
Two years ago, Winbush had a breakout performance. Winbush, then a sophomore, enjoyed his finest game, capping his 268 with three touchdowns as Kansas defeated the No. 17 Buffaloes. Those stats are even more amazing considering that in the 15 previous games of his college career, he didn't hit the century mark in yardage once.
"Hoies, touchdowns," Winibush said of what he remembered from the game two years ago. "The mindset of knowing when I got the ball. I'm going to get positive yards."
Nobody knows this as well as Dylan Smith, the Kansas quarterback who wasn't even a Jayhawk during the game of lore.
"I talk to him all the time, and that's all he's talked about," Smith said. "Two-hundred sixty-eight or whatever, and how he was just running wild."

Sea name SB
But in college football, most defensive players are not only as big as elephants, but they remember as well, too. At Colorado last year, Winbush had 11 rushes for 12 yards. His first attempt was a fumble. Already suffering from degenerative ankles, Winbush was removed with a concussion in Kansas' 51-17 loss.
The question now is whether each side will let the issue rest. Winbush isn't so
"They tried to knock me out," Winbush said. "And they did."
sure Colorado will use two years ago as motivation.
"It's different people, a different game plan, different coaches," Winbush said.
Colorado has changed. Rick Neuheisel was the coach when the Buffaloes lost in Lawrence, which remains Kansas coach Terry Allen's lone win against a ranked opponent. Gary Barnett is the new coach, and this year the Buffaloes are 1-5 overall.
Winbush said he was trying not to turn the 11:30 a.m. meeting tomorrow at Memorial Stadium — Kansas' first game on television this season — into an individual battle. He said he hoped he didn't catch the grief of the Colorado defense. He wants things to be like two years ago, Kansas' finest hour under Allen's watch.
The situation this year is eerily similar. It's October. It's homecoming. It's Colorado. And as far as he can see, Winbush is on target.

Football, parades, royalty, reunions and house decorations are just a few of the images conjured up when people think of homecoming weekend in years past.
During the years, traditions have come and gone for students attending homecoming games at the University of Kansas.
KU alumna Karen Vice Irey was the homecoming queen of 1963, when homecoming took place in late November
"It was the times that stick out in my mind," Irey said. "The football game, the fall air, the Christmas spirit."
Irey said she was overwhelmed when she was crowned.
"It was the most wonderful thing that ever happened to me," Irey said. "The game had a special meaning at that time. It brought everyone together."
The tradition of electing a homecoming queen began in 1925. In 1970, the homecoming committee voted unanimously to end the reign of queens. The committee felt that electing one queen did not represent a diverse university.
Jerry Nossman will be attending his 40-year class reunion this year,and said he remembered the elaborate house decorations from
homecoming games in his years at the University.
"All living groups on campus would decorate with things in their yard," he said. "Cars would line up."
The movable displays were controlled by ropes that students took
turns pulling.
"They were more elaborate and bigger than the floats." Nossam said.
ger than the floats," Nossaman said. On Friday nights prior to homecoming, traffic jams cloged the streets of Lawrence as local residents, alumni and students viewed
the house decorations.
Roger Stanton, vice president of the class of 1960 and chairman of this year's reunion, remembered many events of past homecoming weekends.

To kick off the University of Kansas' traditional homecoming parade, students, faculty and staff will take a 'Passport to the World.'
Parade floats carry tradition of diversity

Kansan correspondent
Campus-wide organizations will march with floats and banners displaying school spirit at 2:30 p.m. today. The parade will begin at the Chi Omega fountain, move along Jayhawk Boulevard and end at Adams Alumni Center.
With 30 to 40 entries in this years homecoming parade, there were more entries this year than ever before, said Leslie Heusted, Student Union Activities director.
Bob Foster, professor of music and this year's Grand Marshall, will direct the floats and marching bands during the parade. He retired this year as director of the marching band.
Homecoming festivities will continue after the parade with a party at the Kansas Union Plaza. Some student organizations will provide tables with food, drink, and live music. Student-run radio KJHK, 90.7 FM, will announce the winners of the float competition at 5 p.m.
Student Union Activities hopes that homecoming will build excitement about the University of Kansas
"We are KU's largest residence hall and, like the
homecoming theme Passport to the World,'we wanted to promote our diversity."

The Hawk Club entered the homecoming parade for the first time this year and will drive a vehicle displaying the Hawk Club spirit banner.
The Greek community will contribute 12 of the participating floats. Meg Peterson, vice president of Kappa Delta sorority and Shawnee junior, said the float her sorority worked with Kappa Sigma fraternity focused on community involvement.
Jennifer French, Salina senior and
Kappa Delta homecoming representative, agreed.
Several residence halls have also entered the parade. McColum Hall residents will march with their spirit banner.

that experience has led him to want to help others on campus.
"I want to get them involved so they can do great things here," Sloan said.
He said one of his favorite things he's done on campus is his service for the International Student Services.
Sloan proposed a mentoring program for the service, which matches international and domestic students in order to help foreign students adjust to life in the United States.
"He truly had passion for his services for international students," Berberich said.
Diana Carlin, dean of the graduate school and the national director of Debate Watch, has Sloan in class and has worked with him in the office of new student orientation and for Debate Watch, a national organization centered out of the University that studies viewer reaction to the presidential debates.
"Curtis is an incredible ambassador for the University," she said.
Carlin also said Sloan had actively participated in Debate Watch.
"I've given him a lot of responsibility and he's taken care of it," she said.
Sloan said he planned to attend law school after he graduated next year.
"Georgetown is at the top of my list because they have a good public service program there and I'd be able to work part-time on the Hill," he said about the university in Washington, D.C.
Sloan worked as an intern last spring for state representative Barbara Ballard, who is also associate vice chancellor for student affairs at KU.
Sloan and Fuchs will be recognized formally for the award tomorrow during pregame ceremonies at KU's homecoming football game against Colorado. The game starts at 11:30 a.m..

Kimberly Fuchs credits her success to failure.
When the Merriam senior arrived at the University of Kansas, she used every opportunity to get involved on campus. She was used to being able to participate in numerous organizations and projects, but soon realized that, at the University, it wouldn't be as easy.
"I'm a firm believer in learning from failure," she said. "The things that don't show up on the list of things I've done are what
I've learned the most from."
Fuchs is one of two recipients of this year's $500 Ex.C.E.L. Award for Excellence in Comm uni t y, Education and Leadership.
The award, given annually by Student Union Activities and Board of Class Officers, goes to a male and female student who have demonstrated exceptional leadership and communication

Fuchs' involvement includes Student Senate Executive Committee chairwoman, president of Mortar Board and numerous community service projects through her sorority, Chi Omega.
She said, however, it was the times she failed that made her the leader she has become.
what interests me is how we develop as people in regard to how we lead friendship circles and families, how it contributes to our wholeness as people," she said.
"When I first got to KU, I applied and signed up for a lot of things, but I didn't get them all," she said.
"That made me realize that I needed to keep my eyes and ears open to a lot of things."
Fuchs said leadership also served as an opportunity for self-improvement and a call to serve others.
taking on leadership roles came from her interest in learning how involvement shaped individuals.

Black Student Union leaders want to see student, alumni involvement
By Saiu Na'alla
Kansan correspondent
Black Student Union selected Destinee Maxwell as its homecoming queen Monday night as part of its homecoming activities. The tradition of selecting a homecoming queen goes back almost 10 years, when Tanya Sanchez was the organization's first homecoming queen.
Black Student Union is the only organization on campus that still continues the tradition of a homecoming queen.
DESTINEE
"For most people, homecoming queen goes hand in hand with homecoming," said Courtney Bates, president of the Black Student Union and Chicago sophomore. "It is just a tradition that is carried over from our high school days and is fun for the students."
Black Student Union had its homecoming queen pageant Monday. Maxwell, Kansas City, Kan., freshman competed against fourteen other women to win the crown. The contestants had to choose a song and dress and explain to a panel of judges the significance of their choices. The contestants were also given questions to answer.
Maxwell will be the centerpiece of the organization's float in the parade this afternoon.
Unlike Maxwell, Tanya Sanchez did not win her homecoming crown in a pageant. Sanchez said when she went to KU, winning the crown was more of a popularity contest and candidates were voted on.
Bates said the change from students being voted on to a pageant system was made to level the playing field. She said outgoing and popular students had the advantage under the old system of selection.

"We decided to change the criteria so that there would be more emphasis on the character of the girl," Bates said.
Sanchez said that was not the only change she had noticed in the Black Student Union. Sanchez, a '93 graduate who teaches at Lawrence High School, said during her years at KU, African-American students were quick to protest against social injustice on campus.
"It was a very exciting time for Blacks, because we decided that we were going to stir things up on campus, to make KU more suitable for Blacks," Sanchez said.
Bates said, at this point, she was concerned about the recruitment and retention of African-American students. She said BSU's main role was to provide services to help African-American students succeed in their college careers and to provide a social outlet.
"But if a situation comes up that warrants political action, BSU is well prepared to take such action," Bates said.
Bates said Black Student Union was still an influential part of KU. However, Bates said she did not expect a great number of African-American alumni to come back for homecoming.
"Unfortunately it does not seem to be a high priority of the Black alumni to come back to KU," she said. "We have virtually no interaction with them."
But the organization is not suffering, she said. Bates said the alumni could be beneficial, especially as mentors and advisers.
"But we understand that once you graduate you really don't want to come back," she said.
Although homecoming is not a big event for the group. Bates said the members were looking forward to participating in the parade.
"We are a big part of KU," she said. "So we will be out there showing our KU spirit."

Spirit of homecoming has withered away
KU students less involved than those at other schools
By Maggie Koerth
Kansan correspondent
The goal of homecoming, according to the Student Union Activities information packet, is to "build excitement about the University of Kansas in the spirit of community with both campus and Lawrence constituents."
But what does SUA do when football games, parades and spirit activities seem unable to induce any kind of excitement in the better part of the student body?
Roy McLellan, Stillwell senior and vice president in charge of alumni relations at Phi Kappa Tau fraternity, said homecoming attendance was down because "people just don't get excited over all the hoopla any more."
McLennan said some KU students were too self-absorbed to pay attention to their school activities and were too trendy to show their school spirit.
"You go to K-State, and everywhere you go you see nothing
but purple," he said. "The only people who really wear school colors much around here are the athletes themselves."
Many students echo McLellan's feelings, at least in action, considering the small percentage of students who turned out to watch last year's parade.
However, student apathy at University has not always been so prominent. John Mullens, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, remembers a time when most of the student body was involved in activities that went beyond the parade. Mullens was a KU student beginning in 1967.
At that time, rather than having a parade, students in greek houses and the residence halls built huge yard displays. The displays were two or three-dimensional, often with moving parts.
"I imagine that you are an alumnus coming to the college to reconnect with your youth. You wouldn't want to see this much apathy,would you?"
At that time, from 6 p.m. until midnight, the display route would be full of cars and pedestrians as spectators went from residence to residence viewing the displays. Visiting alumni could attend numerous programs and dinners.
"I remember that year in McCollum, we built a display that took up the entire yard." Mullens said.
Roy McLellan
Stillwell senior
The University also sponsored a concert in Allen Fieldhouse after the game. The featured artist John Mullens' freshman year was Louis Armstrong.
"We almost didn't get to see that," he said. "It sold out real quick. Luckily, they decided to have two shows, and we got tickets to that one. But it sold out too as I recall."
Artists who came to the fieldhouse in other years included Bob Hope, Elton John and Alice Cooper.
Other colleges still have such activities.
Leslie Heusted, program director for the Kansas Union, said that at the college she used to work, homecoming activities included a formal dance, pep rallies and a bonfire in addition to the traditional football game and parade. Large groups of students were involved in the planning and carrying out of festivities,
Heusted said that the biggest reasons behind KU students' apathy were their willingness to let someone else organize events and belief that there was room for them to be involved.
"I've talked to very many students who said that they were interested in homecoming but who don't know how to get involved," she said.
Jonathan Sternberg, Leawood sophomore, said that many students didn't participate in homecoming activities for the simple reason that they didn't know what was being offered or where. He said he did not know where the parade took place. Sternberg also said that homecoming would garner more attention if the University had a better football record.
For next year's homecoming,
Heusted said she wanted to
McLellan agreed.
organize a planning committee soon and work toward the reinstatement of past activities or the creation of new ones.
"Restarting the lawn displays would really raise participation," he said. "It would tap into our campus' feelings of individual expression and get people involved in homecoming activities who otherwise would just not care."
Although at least 13 floats have signed up for the parade along with the KU Marching Band and numerous small floats and banner carriers. Heusted would love to see even more participation from the student body and the Lawrence community.
So would McLellan, even if for no other reason than to make the campus look good.
"Iimagine that you are an alumnus coming to the college to reconnect with your youth," he said. "You wouldn't want to see this much apathy, would you?"
Anyone interested in joining the homecoming 2001 committee should contact Leslie Heated at 864-2436.
"The more people we get involved, the better our ideas will be, and the better our homecoming will be," Heusted said.

Bar Band boosts school spirit
Ry Joanna Miller
Kansan correspondent
The Lawrence Bar Band will travel from bar to bar tonight in hopes of boosting school spirit and homecoming enthusiasm for the University of Kansas.

By playing traditional KU songs and other upbeat tunes, the band gets people excited about KU football and the University.
"It's all about coming out and getting a little rowdy before the game," said Randy Foster, Lawrence senior and the director of the band.
The Lawrence Bar Band plays the night before every home football game. Tonight, band members will play at a new bar about every half-hour.
Many students out at the bars Oct. 6, before the home game against Kansas State University, agreed that the Lawrence Bar Band helped promote team spirit.
"I like coming out when they play because it brings the school together," said Jordan Crow. Seattle sophomore.
The band began playing in 1996 and used the slogan "We play for beer and the blue team." The band now uses the chant "Beer makes the band play." The Lawrence Bar Band is not affiliated with the
university of Kansas because of the University's alcohol policies. Band members wear T-shirts provided by their sponsor, the Sandbar, 117 E. Eighth St.
"The Sandbar is our home," Foster said.
The band originally played only at the Sandbar, but has slowly increased its route to three to four bars per night.
When the band arrives at The Hawk tonight, they will not only be playing for regular patrons, but also for a special alumni group. The K Club, a group of men and women who have lettered at the University of Kansas, will visit The Hawk tonight. The Lawrence Bar Band has been playing there since 1997, and has played for the K Club's event each year.
John Heleniak, owner of The Hawk, said he loved the music.
"The alumni love it too," Heleniac said. "It brings back the good old days when everyone was up here at school."
Katie Hackett, Oklahoma City junior, said she hoped the band could bring back memories of times past and also increase enthusiasm for this year's homecoming.
"It's a good time to get everyone pumped up for the game," Hackett said. "I think that homecoming is going to be a
bigger deal than it ever was in the past, and maybe the Bar Band can help that."
Foster said it was hard for the band to cover more than four bars a night because some of the members participated in the Marching Jayhawks and had to wake up early to play at football games.
Although band members are fans of all KU sports, they especially want to encourage support for the football team.
"It's way too easy to be a basketball fan at KU. Try being a football fan — that's what tests you." Foster said.
Foster said that the band did not regularly play during the basketball season but that they

had considered adding some basketball events to their schedule.
"I'd like to pick it up and do some basketball things," Foster said.

Homecoming is a purely American tradition.
To a foreign exchange student, more or less new to American soil, this event may seem strange — even confusing.
A football team playing in front of a legion of screaming fans who return home each year to visit their alma mater is almost as American as apple pie.
Beverly Daniels, junior from Stirling University in Scotland, said she was awed by the treatment of sports teams in this country.
- Edited by Amy Randolph
"I always get impressed how everyone here goes about supporting teams," Daniels said. "It just seems like it is on a larger scale here than it is in the United Kingdom."
Daniels, a basketball player at Stirling, said she saw an obvious difference between the ways sports teams were treated at Stirling and at the University of Kansas.
"My university is big on sports, but we don't usually support our teams in quite the same way." Daniels said.
"At the end of the year, we have a sports unions ball where we review the season and recognize the teams," Daniels said.
Though her university's sports teams tended to keep to themselves, they did have recognition events at the end of the season. Daniels said.
David Boothby, Nottingham, England,
sophomore, also sees major differences between sports in America and in his country. In England "football" is soccer
— the country's most popular sport.
the country's most popular sport.
"In England, you may find 30,000 people watching a football game," Boothby said.
The concept of a festival atmosphere coupled with a sports team, such as homecoming, seemed a little strange to Boothby.
"The youth in England get big DJs, and we party to that," Boothby said. "But that sort of thing isn't usually connected to a sport."
Boothby said he saw a parallel between homecoming and the English Festival of Fire on Guy Fawkes Day.
Guy Fawkes was a British extremist who once tried to destroy the houses of Parliament in 1605. He was caught before he could be successful, and a festival celebrating his failure occurs every Nov. 5.
"We go to a bonfire party and watch the fireworks," Boothby said. "Everyone seems to take part in the bonfire night."
Boothby said he was eagerly awaiting the homecoming festivities.
"I am looking forward to the football game and seeing how the people celebrate it." Boothby said. Daniels pointed.
Daniels agreed.
"The whole point of being an exchange student is to experience things," he said. "It's a part of university life."

The musical group's schedule for homecoming weekend will include performances during the homecoming parade, the pre-game show and the halftime show. The band will be adding a twist to this year's homecoming theme, "Passport to the World," with its musical selections.
During the halftime show, the Marching Jayhawks will perform songs in "A Tribute to International Espionage," said Timothy Oliver, marching band director and assistant professor of music.
Songs for the halftime performance, chosen by Oliver, will include themes from international spy films and other related music.
The show will begin with the song "Beautiful Stranger" from the movie Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Then, the band will continue to set the mood by playing the theme to Mission: Impossible.
However, the group won't be the only musical performers in the halftime show.
This year will be the 28th Alumni Band Reunion at the University of Kansas since the band's founding in 1892.
The two bands will finish their halftime performance by playing a medley, which includes the James Bond theme and the theme from the Bond film Goldfinger.
Oliver said performing with marching band alumni has made past homecoming performances special for everyone involved.
the Alumni Band will gather for refreshments early tomorrow morning for a pregame rehearsal, and then it will rehearse with members of the band.
The Marching Jayhawks put on a new performance for each home game, so homecoming rehearsal is not out of the ordinary for them, but some members feel added pressure to do well because of returning alumni members, Oliver said.
Homecoming gives alumni a chance to relive the experience of being involved in a

university-caliber marching band.
Aside from performing in the halftime show, alumni will be participating in the homecoming parade.
"You get this thing in your blood, and it is still there," said Tom Stidham, associate director of bands, referring to the excitement of performing music for a stadium filled with people.
Alumni will not be marching with the band, but representative members of the Alumni Band will ride on a separate float.

The parade will begin at 2:30 p.m. today, and the route will come through the center
Carrie Cook, Overland Park junior and Marching Jayhawks member, said she enjoyed playing with the group at homecoming.
"It gives people who don't normally get to hear us a chance to hear us if they are out or on campus," she said.

Greek alumni welcomed for homecoming events
By Joanna Miller
Kansan correspondent
The University of Kansas greek community will attempt to bring enthusiasm and alumni to this year's homecoming festivities.
Many chapters invite alumni to return during homecoming to reminisce about college years and view chapter life.
"We have very strong alumni support," said Chris Adams, Leawood junior and president of Beta Theta Pi fraternity. "They do a great job of staying involved after they leave the chapter."
Adams said the chapter expected between 30 and 50 alumni and their families to visit during homecoming.
"We love having them back," Adams said.
Beta Theta Pi and other fraternities and sororites plan to entertain returning alumni.
Adams said Beta Theta Pi would have an alumni brunch tomorrow morning before the game at the fraternity's house, 1425 Tennessee St.
After the brunch, alumni and their families are invited to
"I think homecoming is a great idea, but it is not played out to its full potential."
Sarah Hineman Delta Gamma president
attend the game with members of the fraternity. Adams said his fraternity would also encourage alumni and current members to attend a tailgate party near the stadium.
Adams said his fraternity invited alumni to return for other events as well. The fraternity has a similar alumni brunch for every home game.
"I'm sure it's going to be great." Adams said.
Courtney Rowland, Wichita senior and president of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, said she would like homecoming to be a bigger tradition on campus.
Alpha Delta Pi also invited its alumni to return to the chapter for a morning brunch before the homecoming game.
ni are invited to take a tour of the house, attend an alumni brunch and watch the game as a group with Alpha Delta Pi members. She said recent alumni often go out in Lawrence with active members after the game.
Rowland said returning alum-
"Alpha Delta Pi alumani really like coming back," she said. "The game brings back nostalgia."
Sarah Hineman, Dighton senior and Delta Gamma sorority president, said alumni support added to the excitement of homecoming.
Hineman said she thought that homecoming floats and decorative banners in the stadium helped to increase homecoming support on campus, but that having more activities during the week or a pep rally earlier in the week might encourage student involvement.
Hineman said she was excited about the banners, but it still might not be enough.
"I think homecoming is a great idea," she said. "But it is not played out to its full potential."

African-American community prepares for dance, step show
- Edited bv Sara Nutt
Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity plans to celebrate 'Homecoming with celebrations and a dance, while the Zeta Phi Beta sorority is hoping for more African-American Greek involvement in homecoming celebrations.
"Homecoming is for everybody," said Norman Bouwle, Wichita junior and president of Kappa Alpha Psi. "So with our activities for that week, we hope to involve as many people as possible."
Alberta Wright, advisor to the National Pan-Hellenic Council and assistant director of the office of multicultural affairs, said the fraternities and sororites both take their stepping seriously.
The highlight of the week could be tomorrow night at the annual nongreek Stepping Show. Bouwie said the show is for nongreek students who would like to perform a step routine before an audience. Stepping is a part of the African-American Greek system that is meant to bring members closer together.
"It is like a tradition," Wright said.
"The moves, formation and routines are unique to each greek organization. Each fraternity and sorority has its own style of stepping and can
be traced back many years.
it brings about such closeness when members of a Greek organization learn a stepping routine and are able to perform with such style and grace," Wright said.
After the Stepping Show, Kappa Alpha Psi will have a party. The Black Student Union's Homecoming queen be there, as well as students and alumni.
"We expect a lot of people at this party, an extremely good mix of people." Bouwie said.
Wright said it was at the party that individuals who are not familiar to the African-American Greek system would see why the dance routines are so important to the various members. She said members of Greek organizations would form lines and move around the dance floor doing different routines. Each fraternity and sorority would have their own stroll, and no one outside the membership could join the stroll or even try to break it by walking through.
"Strolling is taken very seriously." Wright said. "It is how members both old and young identify with each other, and it how the Black greek alumni are brought closer in touch with the new members."
Zeta Phi Beta is the only African- American greek sorority sponsoring activities for Homecoming.
Lakeshia Jackson, Norcross, Ga.
senior and president of the sorority,
said she hoped this year more
African-American Greek organization would take part in homecoming celebrations.
"Last year, we were the only Black greek organization to take part in the homecoming parade," Jackson said. "We did not mind, though, because we were hoping that it would encourage the others to join us next year."
She said she was disappointed that her sorority would be the only representative of the African-American greek system, but excited about taking part in the parade.
"We as KU students and as members of Zeta are looking forward to be in the parade to show not only our school pride, but also to show our pride in our Zeta Black alumni, whom we have so much to thank for." she said.
Jackson admitted that Zeta does not have the money or the resources to make an elaborate float, but said the sorority would make a strong showing with a colorful banner and well-decorated car.
Irae Beta has been a part of KU since 1979," she said. "So one way or the other, we are going to take part in that parade."

Homecoming themes started in the 1950s
"In those ancient days there were floats, parades and lots of alumni." Stanton said.
Continued from page 1B
An important part of homecoming had always been the reunions, open houses and receptions, Stanton said.
"All the living groups had big plans to welcome alumni back," Santon said.
Themes for homecoming began in 1956. The theme that year was "Songs for Victory." That year, winning displays were based on songs such as "You'll Wonder Where the Yellow Went," and "Too Pooled to Pop."
The theme for 1966 was "Husker's Last Stand," for the game against Nebraska. Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall won its third decorations competition award that
year with its mechanical "Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show."
Stanton recalled the homecoming games scheduled against Nebraska.
"They were the easiest team to beat back then," Stanton said.
Beginning as early as 1914, other popular events included rallies, bonfires, pep meetings, torch light parades, dances, mixers, senior student and alumni class barbecues.
In 1970, the HOPE award was created to honor outstanding faculty members nominated by students. The award which continues today, is presented during halftime at the football game.
Some extraordinary events stick out in the time line of past homecomings. In 1918, the homecoming game was canceled because of an influenza epidemic.
A tradition of Olympic events began in 1921. The intramural turkey run on Saturday mornings was a popular event.
In 1951, a team of 13 committees decided to spend the house decoration money to clean up after a flood. Sonny and Cher performed at the University Theatre musical during homecoming 1973.
Irey said an important part of homecoming games was the wide diversity of people it brings together on campus, and the emphasis on house and hall decorations had been moved to community service and charitable projects.
"I think homecoming was one of those things that built a sense of community and belonging," Irey said.

Association links alumni to University
By Cassandra Taylor Kansan correspondent
The University of Kansas Alumni Association is the primary link between former students and the University, keeping history alive by staying in touch with more than 310,000 KU alumni and friends.
The Alumni Association helps alumni play a special part in celebrations for homecoming, reunions, game days and commencement. It also recognizes exceptional academic and humanitarian achievements.
Jennifer Jackson Sanner, senior vice president for communications of the Alumni Association and editor of Kansas Alumni magazine, said her involvement in the Alumni Association and seeing its effect on people had a positive impact.
"No matter how far or how long students are away, they can always be reminded of their KU bond through the Association," Sanner said.
A current goal of the Alumni Association is establishing a permanent address for all alumni and providing e-mail forwarding to new addresses.
"No matter what e-mail you have, it will ultimately get to you." Sanner said.
The Alumni Association encourages all seniors to contact them and provide contact information before graduation. New graduates are offered a free membership to the Alumni Association.
AWARDS/HONORS
Membership dues to the Student Alumni Association help the University and alumni honor the top 10 percent of high school seniors statewide.
The University's highest honor is the Distinguished Service Citation. This award recognizes the achievements of KU alumni or friends for the betterment of society on behalf of humanity.
The Fred Ellsworth Medalion solutes individuals who have provided significant services to the community
KU honors volunteer service through the Mildred Clodfelter Award.
After e-mail registration, they can have messages forwarded to them regardless of e-mail address changes. Three issues of Kansas Alumni magazine are sent and a reply card has to be mailed in to continue a subscription. Members also have access to health insurance, calling cards and a Jayhawk credit card.
Kansas Alumni is an award-winning, bimonthly publication about campus events and alumni news.
Sanner said student volunteers were always welcome to become members of the Student Alumni Association, the Jayhawk Tradition Keepers. This group sponsors and helps host events for community service projects and alumni activities.
"Being an active alumnus was the farthest thing from my mind when I was a student," Sanner said. Kendra Young, 2000 graduate, said she wanted to stay involved with the University
Kendra Young, 2006 graduate, said she wanted to stay involved with the University.
"I plan to stay connected and always make sure they can contact me." Young said.

Homecoming has evolved through years
Kansan correspondent
By Louise Stauffer
Kansas correspondent
During the years, enthusiasm for homecoming and the number of homecoming activities has waned at the University of Kansas.
"Homecoming isn't homecoming anymore," said David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs.
Ambler has been at the University for 24 years and has seen homecoming activities change in his time.
"Now, homecoming is just another theme for a football weekend. It hasn't been a big deal like it is at football powerhouse schools," Amber said. "I think that the biggest contributors to homecoming spirit are the Greeks because they are more competitive in spirit."
Laura Henry, Fort Scott sophomore and member of Chi Omega sorority, agreed.
"Since football isn't a big thing here, greeks are the only ones who really do anything," Henry said. "There's a large part of the student population that doesn't do anything. The only reason you want to go to the parade is so you can be late to class."
Some activities that used to take place to motivate the student body for homecoming weekend have changed.
"The kinds of activities that go on during homecoming have certainly changed over the years." Ambler said. "When I first came here, rather than floats and a parade, the
greeks decorated their houses. The decorations were really elaborate, and gave the campus a very festive feel."
Ambler said the tradition was put to rest because it took too much time. During the years, other homecoming activities — such as the homecoming dance and electing a homecoming court — have also ceased.
"I'm not really sure why the social activities like the dance stopped," he said.
Spirit has changed, and so has the actual meaning of homecoming. In the 1950s, the homecoming queen nominees were outfitted with fur coats and accompanied by their own ROTC escort.
"I think the stop of the homecoming queen at KU started in the '60s and '70s with the women's movement," Ambler said.
The definition of homecoming changed during the years, and depends on whether a student is greek, a color guard member or just your average student. To some, homecoming is just another football weekend. To others, it is a weekend of activities planned to the minute.
Cassie Cool, Wichita freshman, is a color guard member. Despite changes to KU traditions, she said she liked the University's attitude.
"I think that homecoming here is bigger than it was in high school," she said. "It's not a popularity contest anymore. I think the spirit is stronger in general."

Guest Columnist
Amanda Wolfe
Attending the University of Kansas was my destiny. It was all planned out, before I was even born.
I can imagine my parents talking about it:
"Our child must carry on the tradition. She will be a Jayhawk!"
I am a third-generation student who comes from a strong line of Jayhawk fans. My whole family has its roots in Kansas. Not only did my grandparents and parents attend KU, but aunts and uncles from both sides of the family also matriculated here. My cousin is a sophomore. One of my uncles graduated.twice from KU — once with his bachelor's degree and again when he received his master's.
The fact that almost my whole family attended KU heavily influenced my decision to come to Lawrence.
I never questioned my parents' influence either; I just allowed it to happen. I began to see how a love of KU infused my family and slowly that same love spread to me.
When I was younger, on cool fall weekends, my parents and I would visit Lawrence and walk around campus. I remember so many things about the surroundings that drew me in. I was intrigued by the mystery of the Phog, curious about the odd structure of Wescoe and amazed by the chimes of the Campanile. When I visited the campus I immediately knew I belonged.
Being such a big KU fan, I also grew up with a hatred for Kansas State and Missouri. My parents never encouraged me to check out the Jayhawks' archrivals in Manhattan or Columbia.
I'm not sure what would have happened if I chose another school. I'd probably never hear the end of it from my parents. They would wear those "A House Divided" shirts all the time.
So I knew that considering another school was not an option. But those other schools weren't important to me — they lacked the significance that KU had in my life. I did

n't ever apply to any other schools. I knew KU was where I wanted to be.
Now that I'm a freshman here, I still have all of the same feelings I did when I was younger. I walk around campus as a student now, feeling as though I'm among others brought up the same way. I'm experiencing the traditions and history of KU, and it reminds me of all my relatives who have passed through the Campanile on their graduation days.
Someday, my own kids will be brought up as I was, with an appreciation for our family's love of KU.
They will become fourth-generation students, carrying on the tradition, whether they like it or not.
Because anyone born into this family is destined to be a Jahawk.

Homecoming crowd brings cash, sales to local businesses
Bv Andrea White
Kansan correspondent
University of Kansas alumni are not just bringing their school spirit back with them for Homecoming; they are also bringing their checkbooks.
KU alumni will return this weekend to see the football team face off against the University of Colorado and to see old friends and classmates. The Alumni Association could not estimate the number of visitors coming to Lawrence for the weekend, but class reunions, fraternity reunions and a pregame buffet sponsored by the Alumni Association are expected to draw people into the area.
Judy Billings, director of the Lawrence Convention and Visitor's Bureau, said this weekend would likely be a Big Blue Weekend — one in which people spent at least $1 million in Lawrence.
"It will bring visitors into town who will spend money and generate local spending as well," she said.
She Lawrence residents would join alumni and visitors in spending money for tailgating and parties.
Hotels and restaurants are among the many Lawrence businesses expected to benefit from the extra visitors.
"We will definitely be full homecoming weekend," said Steven Horton, general manager at the Holiday Inn Holdome, 200 McDonald Drive.
Billings said there would be little difference from any other weekend with a home football game.
"Homecoming doesn't boost the impact any bigger than the K-State game or Parent's Weekend." Billings said. "There is only a finite number of hotel rooms and such."
Horton said he agreed with Billings.
"for most of the football games, we will be sold out." he said. "This one will just be earlier."
Along with the added business came added traffic, said Det. M.T. Brown of the Lawrence Police Department.
Department There is an increased crowd at any home football game, but it is a bit more than normal for homecoming with the alumni," he said.
According to Brown, the majority of the police force would be out tomorrow directing traffic, issuing parking tickets and looking out for people who consume alcohol in an irresponsible or illegal manner.
"Because there are more people, there is also a likelihood of more accidents," he said.
Brown said that people should allow plenty of travel time because of the increase in traffic.

Kansan correspondent
Homecoming atmosphere not only dominates the University of Kansas campus and Memorial Stadium, but it also spills into the shops that line Massachusetts Street.
Stores that feature KU clothing and memorabilia attract more fans during football weekends.
"It's probably one of the biggest selling days," said Willie Wilkerson, manager of Jayhawk Spirit, 935 Massachusetts St. "If they're winning, we packed."
Stores selling KU merchandise are not the only ones preparing for a busy weekend.
Josh Shepler, women's clothing manager at Urban Outfitters, 1013 Massachusetts St., said the store would have additional employees working to handle the crowd.
"It's a big event and people plan for it and want to look good," he said. "People come in from out town for the games and they shop."
Some stores' homecoming preparations also include the
outside of their buildings.
He said several merchants decorated their windows in a contest. Kansas football coach Terry Allen or one of his advisers will choose the best display tomorrow.
"Last year we decorated our windows for the game," Wilkerson said. "We painted wildcats burning in a tailgate cookout. This year, we'll use Colorado scenery."
Some stores will feature special sales and promotions to attract more customers this weekend.
Other stores will not have sales that cater specifically to the homecoming weekend.
For example, Wilkerson said Jayhawk Spirit would have sales on KU sweatshirts.
Eric Mater, manager of 7th Heaven, 1000 Massachusetts St., said the store had sales throughout the entire month of October.
"We call it Rocktober and we have stuff on sale from different departments," Mater said. We do it every year to clear out for Christmas."

**Offense:** Dylan Smith seemed to find his game during Kansas' crucial win last week against Missouri. Colorado's quarterback situation is a lot like the Rocky Mountain weather, if you don't like what you see, wait 10 minutes; it will change. **Advantage:** Kansas
Defense: Considering its schedule, Colorado has played better football than it would appear, especially considering the offensive struggle. Same with Kansas "D," which wasn't on the field nearly as long at Missouri because the offense was able to move the ball. Advantage: Even

The Associated Press
AND?
Harold Ramis, director and co-writer of the comedy Bedazzled, which opens today, said the current crop of satanic flicks may be a carryover from the millennium fever last year, when such end-of-the-world movies as End of Days and Stigmata came out.
LOS ANGELES — Hollywood is playing devil's advocate. With Halloween approaching, a rush of films starring the Prince of Darkness is hitting theaters, from apocalyptic thrillers to lighthearted romps.
Or it could be just coincidence.
Bedazzled stars Brendan Fraser as a techno-nerd who strikes a deal with a voluptuous Satan (Elizabeth Hurley) for wealth, power and the love of a beautiful coworker. The movie is a remake of the 1960s comedy starring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.
Adam Sandler stars as the devil's son in *Little Nicky*, starting Friday, Nov. 10. The movie co-stars Harvey Keitel as the devil, Rodney Dangerfield as Grandpa Lucifer and Patricia Arquette, who starred in *Stigmata*.
"We were very determined to come out before the Adam Sandler movie." Ramis joked. "We didn't want to be the second devil comedy this year."
Other devilish fare: The new cut of *The Exorcist*, featuring Linda Blair as the head-spinning, soup-spewing girl possessed by Satan, came out last month and has exceeded box-office expectations. And the 1970s flick *The Omen* recently came out in a DVD box set with its three sequels.
On top of the new crop of devil movies, the horror sequel Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 starts next week, while Wes Craven Presents: Dracula 2000 arrives in December.
Then there's Lost Souls, which opened last Friday. The film had been scheduled for release last year but was delayed because of the crowded market, the filmmakers say. The movie stars Winona Ryder as a zealot on a crusade to convince a nonbeliever (Ben Chaplin) that he has been chosen to be the earthly incarnation of Satan.
Moviegoers' appetite for all things hellish seems strong. Distributor Warner Bros, expanded *The Exorcist* last week to 1,655 theaters, up about one-third, pushing the reissue's gross to a healthy $30.5 million in just more than three weeks.

Yale uses anniversary to reflect on change
The Associated Press
NEW HAVEN, Conn. — It's a good time for a 300th anniversary celebration: Yale University never has been bigger, richer, more influential.
Alumni of the nation's third oldest university are running for president (George W. Bush) and vice president (Joseph Lieberman), leading top corporations, writing prize-winning books and plays and making breakthrough discoveries in medicine and science.
A year of reflection officially begins Saturday with a campuswide open house that offers the public a glimpse into one of the country's elite schools.
It is also a time for Yale to think about its future as the fields of science and technology blossom on a campus traditionally strong in the humanities.
"We want to invest in the strength of our programs and the excellence of our faculty so that in the next 100 years Yale will make as great a contribution to the nation and world as it has in the past." President Richard Levin said.
Today's Yale has 11,000 students, 3,300 faculty and a $10 billion endowment. Tuition, room and board cost more than $3,000 annually.
Graduates include conservative author and TV personality F. Buckley Jr.; actress Meryl Streep; Bill and Hillary Clinton; Frederick Smith, founder of Federal Express, and New York Gov. George Pataki.
Yale's founding began with a group of Connecticut clergymen, who donated 40 books toward establishing a school to train
ON THE NET
http://www.yale.edu/yale300
young men for "employment both in Church & Cxilg State."
An act of the Connecticut Legislature in October 1701 sealed the deal. The original name, the Collegiate School, was changed in 1718 to honor a donor, Elhu Yale, an official with the East India Co.
The price of eternal fame? A box of books, a portrait of King George I, and various goods from the East India Co.
For decades, the school maintained its conservative and religious roots. Women undergraduates were not admitted until 1969, few blacks or Asians were on campus and Jews were admitted only in limited numbers.
Today's Yale is far more liberal — graduate students are trying to unionize and students protest big banks and sweatshops.
But while the student body has become more diverse, women and minorities remain under-represented on the faculty.
"As long as institutions such as Yale don't tap that pool for professorial appointments and restrict themselves to white males, they're going to lose out on a lot of talent," said Elga Wasserman, a former assistant dean and a graduate of the law school.
Yale has just begun a $1 billion expansion of its science and medical schools, to better compete for federal dollars and pursue advanced research. That effort already has benefited the local economy; dozens of scientific research projects have spun off into corporations based in and around New Haven.
MANHATTAN — Aggieville, the bar and shopping district near Kansas State, has been a social mainstay of students for years.
The Associated Press
Oldest Pizza Hut turns 40 in Aggieville
And since October 1960, students have visited the Pizza Hut restaurant on Moro Street — making it the longest-running Pizza Hut in one location.
Bernie Butler has owned the franchise all of those years, which also makes him the oldest franchise holder in continuous operation.
"In the beginning it was a rough ride," Butler said.
The owners had bought the restaurant's equipment from other locations around Manhattan and were doing the renovation work themselves.
"Then we ran out of money," he said.
"So our partners got together and
decided that we needed to start doing business that night. So we called some sororities and fraternities and put out a discount.
"Then we swept the sawdust to the side, opened the doors and we were swamped."
The restaurant's actual anniversary was Tuesday — that date based on a recently discovered health inspection certificate dated Oct. 17, 1960.
Butler owns other franchises around the country, from southwest Missouri to North Carolina. With about 2,200 employees, his is one of the largest groups of franchises in the Pizza Hut system.
Cheryl Sieben, who once worked at the Aggieville Pizza Hut and is now director of the Aggieville Business Association, planned a surprise party with the help of Rose Pritchard.
Butler's longtime office manager.
Butler appeared at a loss for words when his friends and family sprung the surprise at a nearby bar and grill.
Butler had originally planned to retire at age 30.
"I'm 30-plus years past that, but why should I stop when I like what I'm doing?" he said. "It's still fun to me."
But with a grin, he recovered quickly. "You should come down to the store," he said. "We're having a promotion, you know."
One of Butler's partners, Jim Nellis of Topeka, has been with him all 40 years but was unable to attend the party. Another of the original partners, Roger Sink, was on hand.
"Bernie's a legend in Aggieville," Sink said. "He's always been in Aggieville and will always be in Aggieville."
Wireless Internet allows online admissions
Tribune Media Service
Central Carolina Technical College in Sumter, S.C., has become the first in the country to have wireless Internet access through such gadgets as cellular phones and electronic schedule-keepers.
Now students can apply for admission, read the college course catalog and call up faculty and staff information online.
Within months, they'll be able to drop or add courses — as college Web
The technology is available, but students don't use it in great numbers, Lucas said. Not enough of them own cell phones or Palm Pilot-type devices.
"Right now its reach is probably more global than it is regional," Lucas said.
developer Mark Lucas said Tuesday — "walking up and down the halls of the school or Wal-Mart."
Wireless technology still is relatively new to the Sumter area; companies are just beginning to come in.
ting on top of the mountain and have people climb up to us," Lucas said. Another is to expose students to technology they'll use in the workplace, even if they can't use it now.
Still, the college offers a number of computer-oriented certification courses online, Lucas said. That means someone in, say, California, could find a course he wanted to take at Central Carolina then register on his cell phone or electronic scheduler — and take the course by Internet — and never set foot in Sumter.

Pay increase rate unfair, staffers say
By Jason Krall
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The University of Kansas recommends an 8.2 percent faculty pay increase by 2002, but some KU staff could be left out of the deal.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway has recommended that the Kansas Board of Regents request the increase for fiscal year 2002. But more than 700 members of KU's Unclassified Professional Staff Association are not included in the proposal.
The group receives a lower percentage increase than teaching faculty. Members received a 2.5 percent pay increase last year, while faculty got a 5.9 percent increase, said Sandra Wick, president of UPSA and associate director of the University Honors Program.
"Topeka will say that we're administration and not directly involved in the mission of the University," Wick said. "We're trying to make the case that we are."
UPSA members included University administrators, program and department directors, many of whom teach at least one course, Wick said. They also included researchers in programs like the Kansas Geological and Biological surveys, she said.
Hemenway's proposal would increase his salary because he is a teaching professor of English, Wick said.
Hemenway's salary is $207,489 this fiscal year, and would increase to $224,503 if the Legislature approves the 8.2 percent increase.
UPSA members and faculty members, referred to collectively as unclassified staff, are paid through the Board of Regents. Wick said she hoped to meet with Duane Goossen, state director of the budget, to discuss including UPSA members in the pay increase.
Classified staff includes maintenance staff members, who are paid directly out of the state budget.
SALARY INCREASES
Mike Auchard, president of Classified Senate and general
What's happening: Chancellor Robert Hememway is proposing an 8.2 percent salary increase for faculty. The pay raise would not include some administrators and researchers, known as unclassified professional staff.
What it means: If approved by the Kansas Board of Regents and the State Legislature, the raise would go into effect in 2002.
What's next: Administrators hope to convince state officials to include unclassified professional staff across the state in the staff, including more than 700 KU staff members.
maintenance and repair technician, said that the state's direct control of classified staff made it hard for the chancellor and the regents to influence the size of their raise. But classified staff should receive the same percentage increases as unclassified staff, he said.
"We don't think our 2.5 percent is fair, equitable or even reasonable," Auchard said. "But whatever raises we get are the same as those for all the workers in the state civil service system."
Hemenway told University Council in a meeting two weeks ago he had asked the Board of Regents to push the 8.2 percent increase in the spring legislative session. The pay increase would make KU faculty salaries comparable to those at peer research universities, he said.
"We're trying to get faculty salaries caught up with what our peer institutions are," Hemenway said. "Right now, we're near the bottom of the list of the major research universities in this country."
The proposed increase is supported by a law, passed in May 1999, to redefine the authority of the Board of Regents. The bill increased state funding for faculty salaries by about $26 million over the next four years.

Abortion pill sources will be limited
Bv Meahan Bainum
By Meghan Bainum
write @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Instead of having to dodge protesters at abortion clinics, women could receive RU-486 from private gynecologists.
The approval of the abortion pill mifepristone — known as RU-486 — was supposed to give women a private way to end their pregnancies.
But in Lawrence, as well as other Kansas communities, it appears women will have few choices of where to get RU-486.
A representative for Kristin Neuhaus, the only abortion provider in Lawrence, said Neuhaus planned to prescribe RU-486 from her clinic at 205 W. Eighth St.
but women who want to get the pill still will have to deal with protesters who regularly gather outside the clinic, said Mike Caddell, security chief for Neuhaus. He said new protesters had been showing up since the approval of RU-486 was announced.
Michele Carlson, medical assistant for Lawrence gynecologist Stephen L. Viierthaler, 346 Maine St., said Viierthaler did not plan to prescribe the drug.
According to the Federal Drug Administration, doctors who prescribe RU-486 must meet certain qualifications such as the ability to date pregnancies accurately with ultrasound equipment and the ability to provide surgical abortion procedures if the pill does not work correctly.
RU-486 causes abortions by blocking the action of progesterone, a hormone needed to support pregnancy. Three visits are necessary to complete the procedure. During the first visit, a woman would take three mifepristone pills by mouth. Two days later, if the woman were still pregnant, she would take a different pill to induce contractions. If medical abortion has not occurred 12 days after the second visit, a surgical abortion would be required.
Though Watkins will not be offering RU 486, Rock said physicians there would counsel students about its use.
"As we inform students about options with regards to their personal health, that will be part of the discussion," Rock said. "Our responsibility is to inform people

Marijuana use higher at colleges
By Melissa Davis
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ryan Walters is an engineering student with good grades. Walters, Lawrence senior, leads a normal college life — a life of studying, going to class and, like many other students nationwide using marrijuana.
2017
According to a recent National Household Survey on Drug Abuse, marijuana use among college-aged students 18 to 25 years old has increased 28 percent during the last two years, and many KU students fit the statistic.
Nick, a Lenexa sophomore who refused to give his last name because of legal consequences associated with the drug, said he was not surprised by the new statistic.
According to Do It Now, a national health education organization, marijuana is the most widely used illicit drug in the United States and in most of the rest of the world. The group's 1998 national study found that more than 71 million Americans had tried marijuana, and about 11 million used it regularly — and those numbers are rising.
"There is an increase because it is the best stress reliever," he said. "I bet around finals, the whole campus is lighting up."
And another study supports Nick's prediction.
Walters said he thought the number was rising because people were realizing the propaganda associated with the drug.
"Prohibitions are historically ineffective." he said. "Organizations use fear to try to stop marijuana because it is
Marijuana use by students on campuses is on the rise, according to a recent poll taken by the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse. The survey claims that marijuana use by college students aged 18 to 25 has increased 28 percent during the past two years. Photo illustration by Anra Lundberg/KANSAN
Nick said he thought marijuana was popular because people were more likely to grow dependent on other drugs and pot was a "safer" alternative to other legal drugs.
their only weapon. But people are realizing that it's not addictive."
"I have never heard someone overdosing on pot, but you hear of people
But many students might be overlooking the consequences of the drug. According to educational promotions from Watkins Memorial Health Center on marijuana, the complications associated with the drug include impaired driving, reduced sperm count, lack of motivation and memory impairment.
dying from Valium, alcohol and getting lung cancer from nicotine all the time," he said.
But Walters said any drug, including legal drugs, could have consequences if used improperly.
Paul Brown, Overland Park junior, said he knew people that didn't smoke cigarettes but did smoke pot because it was easier on their bodies. He said he thought that cigarette smoking was worse than marijuana and that cigarettes maybe even contributed to its popularity.
"I personally think smoking pot isn't as bad as cigarette smoking because pot smokers usually don't chain smoke," Brown said.
"There is a huge stigma attached to illegal drugs, especially marijuana." Walters said. "This stereotype is supplied by the mass media to say drugs are the root of the problem. Marijuana doesn't create issues, people create issues."
Gerry Riley, counselor at DCCCA, a Lawrence drug rehabilitation center, said American culture scapegoated behavior on substances rather than personal actions.
"Our culture is different in the U.S. We try to make drugs the problem, not the behavior." Riley said. "There is nothing wrong with feeling good, but if a person is so out of it, that's irresponsible."

Renovations would include expanded social, study areas
By Matt Merkel-Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A computer lab, a convenience store with coffee and a redesigned lounge will be added during winter break, said Pat Beard, associate director of the Kansas and Burge unions.
Clattering keyboards and study groups all swirled in the aroma of coffee will be available at the Kansas Union next semester.
The changes are being made to offer students a central location for studying and to make the Union a destination point. 24-hour service for the lab and a convenience store were under consideration, Beard said.
"We're looking to give students another option where they don't have to necessarily go downtown," he said. "We want to be a place where people want to and need to go." Plans for the unions include:
A fourth-floor computer lab with 35 to 40 stations will occupy the current location of the Kansas Union's business offices, which will move to the third floor.
- The information and candy counter will be expanded into a convenience store with more grab-and-go items, coffee and possibly Javahk clothing.
The Kansas Union lobby will be redecorated to create a more comfortable atmosphere. Beard said data ports could be added in the future so students with laptops could
A convenience store will be added to the Burge Union Bookstore at the currently unused east entrance. The convenience store will have later hours than the bookstore.
What happened: A computer lab and a convenience store will be added to the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. The food court and lobbies will also be renovated. A convenience store will also be added in the Burge Union.
What it means: Students will have another study option on campus, which could possible be open 24 hours.
UNION RENOVATIONS
What happens next: The computer lab and convenience stores will be added during winter break, and should be ready by the beginning of the spring semester.
Beard estimated the renovation projects, which will be paid for by the unions' operating budget, would cost between $200,000 and $250,000.
use the lobby
Jim Breckenridge, Waterville sophomore, was working on a group project in the Kansas Union lobby yesterday. Breckenridge said he typically ordered pizza and studied in his residence hall room or went to coffee shops, but expanded services at the Union would be beneficial to students.
The Kansas Union's third-floor food court also will be renovated for the first time in 12 years. More lighting and new food options will be added, but final plans have not been made.
"The Union is a good place to study because it's a central location for students," he said.
Breckenridge, a resident assistant at Oliver, said he noticed many freshmen were unaware of the computer labs on campus, and the unions would be visible alternatives to studying in the residence halls.

KU group to protest School of the Americas
Latin American Solidarity members will read the names of victims killed by graduates of the School of the Americas today from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall.
School of the Americas, located in Fort Benning, Ga., has taught Latin American soldiers combat and counter-insurgency techniques.
The victims of the school's graduates include Archbishop Oscar Romero and 900 civilians killed in the El Mozote Massacre.
Anna Wagner, co-president of Latin American Solidarity, said she and many others felt graduates of the School of the Americas were responsible for human rights abuses in Latin America, and students should be aware their tax dollars pay for the school.
"Part of the name reading is to raise awareness on campus and get some support locally," Wagner said.
She said members of the organization would also be going to the protest at Fort Benning, Ga., which will be Nov. 17 through Nov. 19.

Student shot in arm after being followed
LAWRENCE
A 22-year-old male KU student was shot in the arm early Friday morning in the 3500 block of West Sixth Street, Lawrence police said.
Lawrence police Det. M.T. Brown said the student was at the Kwik Shop, 3440 W. Sixth St., when he saw two males with whom he had a confrontation this summer.
Brown said the student reported he was followed by a dark-colored Blazer when he left the convenience store. The student believed the Blazer's occupants were the two men he had seen in the Kwik Shop.
The student pulled over into a parking lot to see what the men wanted. Brown said. He was getting out of his car when he was shot in the arm. He then drove to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and released.
Brown said the investigation continued Friday. The victim did not know the suspects' names.

Residence burglarized while student is home
Someone broke into a 22-year-old KU student's residence early Thursday morning while he and his 5 roommates, who all attend the

Brown said police did not have any suspects.
Student finds neighbor masturbating at dog
A 20-year-old KU student discovered her next-door neighbor masturbating in plain view in the neighbor's backyard at 5:45 p.m. Thursday when she went to call her dog back inside. Lawrence police said.
Lawrence police Det. M.T. Brown said the student saw the 30-year-old man masturbating at her dog. She called for the dog and yelled at the man, but the man only turned towards her and continued.
Brown said the man admitted to the act. He was given a notice to appear in court.
Student victim identified in September battery
Lawrence police have identified the victim of a September battery as a 22-year-old KU student, Lawrence police Det. M.T., Brown said.
Brown said police were called Sept. 22 after a man was knocked unconscious by a rubber-wrapped copper cable when he was leaving a bar at 14th and Ohio streets.
Witnesses told police the man was pushed by a group of people. He pushed back, and someone struck him with the cable. Other patrons picked the man up and drove him to the hospital.
Police did not know the victim's identity until he came into the district attorney's office wanting money for his fractured jaw, Brown said.

Yugoslavian president meets Bosnian leaders
WORLD
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina — Yugoslavia's new president averted a diplomatic debacle yesterday by meeting Bosnia's political leaders, defusing anger spawned by his decision to use his first trip to the country to attend a ceremony that some said had ethnic overtones.
Vojislav Kostunica's visit was the first a Yugoslav leader has paid to Bosnia, a former Yugoslav republic, since the war there ended half a decade ago.
Sarajevo for the meeting.
Kostunica's stop in Trebinje seemed simple enough. He was attending a reburial service for a Serb poet.
He spent part of the day in the town of Trebine before flying off to
But in Bosnia — which fought to separate itself from Serb-dominated Yugoslavia in 1991 and was ripped apart by ethnic warfare between Serbs, Croats and Muslims — the visit caused an uproar.
The Croat and Muslim members of Bosnia's presidency considered it an insult that the new Yugoslav leader, who is a Serb, would choose an event with nationalistic Serb overtones for his first visit.

JERUSALEM — Ehud Barak called for a peace "time-out" and Yasser Arafat told him to "go to hell."
The Israeli and Palestinian leaders seemed further than ever yesterday from the peace their U.S. and Egyptian sponsors have tried to salvage.
The violence in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip showed no signs of abating, and the cease-fire called during last week's peace summit was little more than a memory.
Four Palestinians died in clashes yesterday. The death toll from three weeks of violence now stands at 121, most of them Palestinians.
"We need to have a time-out to reassess the peace process," Barak told his weekly Cabinet meeting yesterday.
A statement issued by Barak's office did not say how long the time-out would last.
Israeli negotiators would refuse to meet with their Palestinian counterparts until the time-out was lifted.
Arafat said the Palestinian state would come — with or without Barak's approval.
"Our people are continuing their road to Jerusalem," he said. Whether Barak accepts that or not, "let him go to alma." Arafat said.
The intensification of the rhetoric came despite efforts by Egypt and the United States to salvage the peace process.
Egypt and the United States convened the summit last week at the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh that ended with a cease-fire declaration. The Americans said they would continue to work toward bringing the sides together.
President Clinton is still focused on getting the parties to stick to the Sharm el-Sheikh agreement "to get us past the immediate violence," spokesman Elliot Diringer said.

Program needs volunteers to encourage young voters
Students interested in more than just voting on Election Day can help spark an interest in the political process among Lawrence schoolchildren.
The Center for Community Outreach and the Roger Hill Volunteer Center are looking for more volunteers to staff polling sites in Lawrence and Douglas County for the Kids Voting USA program.
About five million students participate in the program, which increases voter turnout among parents by 5 to 10 percent, according to the Kids Voting USA Web site.
Michelle Heller, manager of the Roger Hill Volunteer Center, said about 5,000 Douglas County students were expected to cast ballots this year. About 100 more volunteers are needed to staff the polls.
The program aims to increase voter turnout by increasing voter education among elementary school children. The students then can cast their own ballots at a kids' booth at official polling sites.
Michelle Black, Center for Community Outreach co-director and Lawrence senior, said the program was a great way to get children in the habit of voting and to motivate their parents to vote.
Volunteers will work at a polling site during one of three shifts — 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m., 3 to 5:30 p.m. and 5:30 to 7 p.m. The shifts were designed for children to vote before and after school, said Heller.
Volunteers will give students their ballots and instructions on how to fill them out, she said. They will also give the young voters an "I voted" sticker and an official Kids Voting pencil.
"I think children look for role models closer to their own age," Heller said. "It's nice to see kids interested in voting. As a kid, adults are always telling you what to do, so it's nice to see younger people getting involved as role models."
Black said the Center for
KIDS VOTING USA
Kids Voting USA is a program that educates elementary school children about the candidates and election process. Those students cast ballots in a mock election similar to the regular election.
- To volunteer to work at a polling site, contact Michelle Black at the Center for Community Outreach at 864-4073, or Michelle Heller at the Roger Hill Volunteer Center at 865-5030.
Community Outreach had been contacting people on its volunteer list and various campus groups to recruit volunteers.
"It's not something just groups can get involved with, but individuals as well. We're really trying to reach out to people that would get excited to get involved with the program," Black said. "I think we can all learn from participating, whether it be a KU student or a community member."
Week's events tackle myths about sexual assault
Rv Leita Schultes

Kansan staff writer
It's a dangerous fact to overlook, she said.
Up to 90 percent of rapes are committed by acquaintances, friends, dates — even spouses, said Laura Montgomery, coordinator of the Sexual Assault Prevention and Education Program.
"It's really dangerous for women to believe that their main concern is the guy who's going to jump out at them from behind the bushes," Montgomery said.
Because many women do not recognize acquaintance rape as a crime, many of those assaults are not reported. In fact, there has been only one rape reported on campus this semester.
Starting today, activities planned for Sexual Violence Awareness Week will attempt to disbelieve myths.
Although last year the awareness week was in September, Montgomery said she planned this year's event to coincide with the Take Back the Night March.
She said the march provided a physical connection among women, many of whom were afraid to go out alone at night.
"It has a lot to do with empower-
ment," Montgomery said.
Amy Wolf, director of Rape Victim Survivor Services, added that the march was for men as well as women.
"I think it's kind of an empowerment for anyone who cares about violence against women," she said.
Men were more involved in raising awareness than they had been in the past, Montgomery said.
In fact, new this year is a men's issues group that will discuss how to reach and involve male students.
"I think there are definitely
some great men out there," Montgomery said. "On the other hand, there are other men that become very defensive when you start talking about sexual assault."
The men's issues group is working with student focus groups that will meet tonight. Other activities during the week will cover incest, domestic violence and child abuse.
A rape poster project entitled "This is Not an Invitation to Rape Me" will be displayed throughout the week. Wolf said the thought-provoking images included everything from a stripper to a couple on their wedding dav.
"Basically, it's just saying no one deserves to be raped," she said.
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center also is using the week as an opportunity to introduce its Stalking Resource Kits. Montgomery said they would be available in 22 Strong Hall.
Sexual violence was often a silent issue, Montgomery said. Rape is a charged word, one people do not associate with themselves.
"Rape victims are the people on the other side of the wall," she said.

Nontraditional students: Get involved at KU
M y first semester just more than two years ago was the absolute worst, but two things saved my sonity. The first was finding
and getting involved with the nontraditional student organization here on campus, now called KU Nontrads; and the second was discovering the McNair Scholar Program.
These groups not only gave me access to a social life here at KU, but will also help me reach my future goals. Once I receive my degree, potential employers will be looking for involvement in extracurricular activities, and these two groups provided a means to that end.
Initially, I couldn't see how I could
find time for anything other than my studies, my job, and my daily commute from Kansas City, Kan. But because of my desire to really experience college life, I decided to test the waters and get involved a little bit at a time. In most of my classes, I was the only person older than 30, including my professors. I felt a bit out of place. I knew that this was where I needed to be, and

what I wanted to be doing, but feeling alone made it more difficult.
Meeting some of the other nontraditional students on campus definitely helped me to see that I was not alone and I could make valuable contributions to campus life for others. KU Nontrads is a great organization that makes social ties with others in similar situations easier. The brown-bag lunches each Wednesday at Alcove E in the Kansas Union have provided a kind of home base to check in and see friendly faces in my peer group.
The other organization that has been invaluable to me as a nontraditional student is the McNair Scholar Program. Although not strictly geared for nontrads, the program provides assistance to many students who are members of a group that is underrepresented in higher education or who are first-generation college students meeting certain income guidelines. McNair helps students who plan to continue their education at the graduate level by providing tutoring, GRE test preparation courses and the opportunity to participate in the program's Summer Research Institute. The program, located on the third floor of Pearson Hall, always is looking for potential scholars.
Other things to remember as a nontraditional student:
1. Not all your classmates under the age of 25 are majoring in alcohol poisoning. I have met and befriended a lot of young people who are very responsible with their lives and are very serious about their studies.
2. The Student Development Center in Strong Hall provides many services of use to all students, but has a great deal to offer nontraditional students in particular.
3. We nontrads now have four seats in Student Senate, so if you have any concerns or ideas, you can contact those senators: Deena Hardie, Brent Wallace, Amber Rattliff and Mike Roessler.
4. Many of the younger students may not even know you are nontraditional. I have found many of them to guess my age at least 10 years younger than I actually am — a definite perk!
5. Your professors realize experience and hard knocks bring depth to classroom discussions. Take advantage of that and be vocal in class; it makes an impact on both your professors and other students.
6. It is up to you to not be invisible on campus. That is one of the biggest complaints I have heard from nontraditional students. Get involved, voice your opinions and have fun!

Retirement investment tips helpful but assume incorrectly
Columnist Scott Kaiser (October 19) writes that a disciplined investor who starts young can save a million dollars for retirement at age 65.
This estimate requires certain assumptions, including a 12 percent lifetime rate of return on investment, but I agree that it is generally a good idea to save for retirement.
Toward the end of his confidently knowledgeable argument, Kaiser advises grads to save because Social Security is "a gamble our generation cannot rely on." That's a terribly careless thing to say.
If nothing is done to change the program, fairly conservative projections show Social Security paying full benefits until 2037, and then paying 70-75 percent of promised benefits thereafter. Is that absolutely guaranteed? No. But is Scott Kaiser's 12 percent rate of return over the next 40 years guaranteed? No, again.

Students and families should peacefully coexist once again
The use of family homes for owner-unoccupied multiple rental units is not a student problem but a landlord problem. Students will live where they can.
Students and families used to live together. The student in every garret enjoyed a cheap room and helped pay for upkeep. The owners raised children, grew flowers and fixed the plumbing.
Let's encourage an owner-occupant to accommodate a student. Loss of irreplaceable historic dwellings begins when the whole home is given over to unrelated renters.
Stop mutilation of houses. Block by block, reclaim homes by zoning down when they sell. Embrace the Kansas Neighborhood Revitalization Act, about to be introduced by neighborhood associations
to reward restoration.
Ann Goans Lawrence resident
Rezone the heart of Lawrence back to its original intent and families will flock to these one-of-a-kind homes.
Q&A's stance on chalkings not reflective of all queers
Let's get one thing certain: A few members of KU Queers and Allies do not speak for the entire group.
Q&A's position with the University of Kansas is entirely on the director's terms and accord. In fact, I completely disagree with the director's alliance with the University. Because the director, and thus the organization, took responsibility for and condemned the October 11 chalkings they have sent the message and set the example for anti-queer assault.
Not only have they allowed an open attack on the queer community (by some of the members themselves as well as some of the student population,) they have also silenced the majority of its members.
As an active member and participant in Q&A, I also refuse to let this incident divide or discourage us. Most of us have common goals and similar beliefs that override differing opinions about sidewalk chalk. I do not feel threatened by contrary opinions or disagreements.
Our chalkings should not have been erased; we did nothing wrong, and I refuse to remain the silent and submissive little queer everyone wants me to be.
What most people do not know is that the night of the chalkings, police officers stopped and checked what we were writing. They found nothing wrong with our messages and let us continue.
KU Queers and Allies and the University do not define who I am, and I will not be made to feel ashamed of my decisions.
Tara Wolfe Lawrence senior
Editorial
Sexual assault handling is for the authorities
Ballard report should have demanded staff and coaches consult authorities
The Barbara Ballard report suggests positive reforms for the Athletics Department. It will improve the responsiveness of the department, but in the end, serious sexual assault cases should be a matter for the authorities.
Establishing protocols for assault claims and appointing Amy Perko to receive these complaints are good ideas. They can effectively deal with some incidents and prevent serious assaults from being addressed slowly and inadequately.
The Ballard report suggests that many students in the department are likely to turn to coaches or staff members when they have these kinds of problems. Requiring staff and coaches to have training for these issues can help fulfill their primary obligation to the students.
But there is only so much the department can do in truly serious cases. The bottom line is that sexual assault is a crime, whether it occurs on or off campus. Student-athletes should report to the police or other law enforcement if they think a crime has been committed against them. It's the best way to preserve their rights and the rights of those who are accused
It's also unfair to require student-athletes to attend programs on violence against women and alcohol if they've never manifested problems in these areas. There's no reason why athletes have a greater predisposition to these problems than the general student population. Athletes may be role models, but that doesn't justify reforming their behavior when they've done nothing wrong.
By accepting the Ballard report and promising to follow its guidelines, the department will avoid failures such as the one it has recently experienced. The department needs to ensure that it doesn't bury sexual assault claims. Coaches and staff members should be trained to support students and urge them to report criminal cases to the police.

Holiday event enriching for international students
By Rob Pazell
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
By Rob Pazell
International students can experience American traditions off campus by participating in the Betty Grimwold Thanksgiving Homestay.
Moussa Sissoko, new director of the program and a 1988 participant, said the homestay cleared up his perception about America when he stayed in a rural town.
"It was really great for me because I had no idea of America out of the university setting." Moussa said. "It not only skyscrapers of New York and Chicago but rural people who have the same interests."
The program allows first-year international students to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with host families in urban, rural or Lawrence areas. Student Senate passed a bill naming the program after Betty Grimwild, whose family started the program in 1945. She died earlier this year.
Students who signed up at orientation will receive an invitation by mail, but International Student Services also sends e-mails to all students eligible for the program.
Sissoko said students filled out applications selecting an urban, rural or Lawrence area family. They also choose to either stay just for the Thanksgiving evening or for the entire holiday weekend. Families fill out family data sheets listing preferences, if any, on students and the duration of the stay. Students will be matched with the families after all applications have been turned in. The deadline is Wednesday, Nov. 1.
Angelina Bezrukova, Fulbright visiting scholar
from Abakan, Russia, said she wanted to find out how people lived in America.
"Its an opportunity to go and see something else," Bezrukova said. "I'm very interested in relations between parents and children, families and communities, other people's lives. Not just students."
Eula Mae Goodfellow and her husband Don, of Lyons, have been hosts for students in the program twice when their children were growing up and will participate again this year.
"Now that we have grandkids around, we thought that it would be fun for them to experience an international person." Goodfellow said.
She said the student would go with them to family dinner for Thanksgiving and spend the weekend sightseeing. The Goodfellows live on a farm 30 miles from the Cosmosphere, a space museum in Hutchinson, and two miles from the Santa Fe Trail Museum.
"We like to show them the history of the Indian settlement." Goodfellow said. "They have a grass hut there which can show them how the Indians lived." Goodfellow also invites students to their small country church.
"We want to let them see how we live," Goodfellow said. "We also like to have them go to church."
Sissoko said the homestay worked well because it was a cultural exchange.
"It is the essence to provide international students with the opportunity to experience American culture," Sissoko said. "Families share the opportunity to host an international student."

Prescription sites limited for abortion pill
Continued from page 1A
of their options."
Options which Sally Puleo, coordinator of the KU Pro-Choice Coalition, said were being limited by Lawrence doctors' refusal to prescribe the pill.
Puleo, St. Charles, III, senior, said when the pill was first approved, she thought it would give women more options and make abortion more accessible. She said the reason so many doctors would not provide the pill was a direct result of the amount of harassment abortion doctors have received.
"There is no reason this should not be provided by gynecologists who have the necessary equipment," she said. "Abortion is legal, and doctors are too scared to provide legal health services."
Scott Wallisch, KU Students for Life cochairman and St. Louis senior, said he predicted local clinics would have the drug soon.
"Before too long, the Planned Parenthood here will be prescribing it because they have facilities in Kansas City in case a surgical abortion is needed," he said.
wallisch said the FDA was overlooking the pill's many dangers and a limited number of prescription sites might help limit the number of RU-486 induced abortions.
"It will be safer for them not to have the option readily available," he said. "It will give them more time to think about it."

Professor remembered for devotion to research
By Megjan Bainum
writer @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Friends described Roy D. Laird as a man who had a passion for his family, truth and research.
Laird, professor emeritus of political science, died Saturday after an extended illness. He was 75.
He arrived at the University of Kansas in 1957 and retired 33 years later. His scholarly emphasis was in the field of Soviet studies, specifically Soviet agriculture.
was his life."
Paul Schumaker, professor of political science and government, worked with Laird for about 25 years and said Laird was an intensely committed scholar as well as a devoted father and husband.
"He was just an incredible family man, very, very proud of his wife and his children," Schumaker said. "His family, along with his profession,
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, worked with Laird for 20 years.
"He had a real passion for what he did," Cigler said. "He probably had the most extensive research record in the political science department in terms of amount of activity."
Cigler said Laird's devotion to research and the University was tireless.
"He never quit," he said. "He actually did research after he retired, and he regularly sponsored a brown-bag get-together every week until very recently."
Laird often returned to KU after his retirement to do research and to mentor graduate students.
He wrote and co-wrote 16 books and monographs, more than 80 articles and book chapters, and numerous book reviews and newspaper articles.
He founded the International Conference on Soviet and East European Agriculture at KU in 1962 and was known nationally and internationally for his research.
In addition to his scholarly pursuits, Laird enjoyed fishing, hunting and sailing.
Memorial contributions can be sent to the Kansas University Endowment Association for the Roy and Betty Laird Russian and East European Studies Essay Competition, P.O. Box 928, Lawrence, Kan., 66044, or to the Willa Cather Pioneer Memorial, 326 N. Webster, Red Cloud, Neb., 68970.
He is survived by his wife, Betty Ann Olson; two sons; a daughter; a sister; and four grandchildren.
A wake to celebrate Laird's life will be at 3 p.m. Saturday at the Smith Center, 4703 Brandon Woods Terrace.

Menninger leaves a legacy
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Roy Menninger has seen the Menninger Clinic through its most prosperous years.
Changes in health care for the mentally ill forced Topeka's Meninger Clinic to move to Houston in partnership with the Baylor College of Medicine and Methodist Health Care System, Meninger said.
Meninger, founded the clinic, colleagues said. Roy Meninger left a legacy during his 26 year tenure as president and chief executive officer.
"Stand-alone health-care systems cannot survive," Menninger said in a recent interview with The Topeka Capital Journal. "They have to be affiliated with not just larger systems, but larger educational systems. Our training programs need that. We can benefit from the synergy from a major research program that we could never afford."
Roy Menninger was elected president of an organization in chaos in 1967 after Karl Menninger was asked to step down and Will Menninger had died.
But seeing the clinic leave Topeka by 2002 will be difficult for Menninger. Though his father, Dr. Will Menninger, and uncle, Dr. Karl
Roy Menninger immediately took steps to convert the governing style from an autocratic top-down approach to a democratic style. He empowered department heads to take a more active role in developing and managing programs.
With his leadership in the 1970s, the organization added group psychotherapy, family therapy, biofeedback, the first halfway house, short-term treatment, and the alcohol and drug abuse recovery program.
He supported Menninger's Community Service Office, which served mentally ill people who couldn't afford treatment in Topeka.
The office, which lost money every year, closed earlier this year.
Perhaps most significant of all, Roy Menninger and his wife, Bev, were successful fund-raisers, acquiring gifts from small amounts to millions of dollars at a time, while expanding national support.
Roy Meninger was keenly aware of his father's philosophy, "Brains before Bricks" — investing in people, not buildings. But in the 1970s, the old Meninger hospital was near the end of its useful life. He raised $23 million for the construction of new hospital buildings on the west campus, which Meninger had owned since 1960.
The new white-brick buildings provided a serene home-like atmosphere for patients.
When planning began in 1975, Roy Menninger was convinced that this move to the west campus would position the institution for another 50 years.

Albright plans historic trip to communist North Korea
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — When Madeleine Albright traveled to the no-man's land buffer zone between North and South Korea in February 1997, she peered through military binoculars into the mysterious, reclusive North. Nothing could have foretold the historic diplomatic foray about to unfold.
Albright flies to North Korea on Sunday, becoming the first American secretary of state to visit the communist nation since it was formed 55 years ago by Kim Il Sung, the Soviet-trained ruler who became known to his people as the Great Leader. His son, Kim Jong II, now holds the reins of power.
These talks could pave the way for President Clinton to visit — an idea that was unimaginable just a few months ago.
Some, in fact, think the administration is moving too quickly and the North Koreans should be expected to demonstrate a more peaceful intention by first pulling back some troops and weapons from the Demilitarized Zone, the 21/2-mile wide buffer that is among the most dangerous patches of land on Earth.
"What is bothering me is that I have seen no change in their military capabilities or disposition," said Robert Riscassi, a retired Army general who commanded U.S. forces in Korea from 1990-93. North Korea still posed a serious threat to the South and the 37,000 American troops there, he said.
At the top of the Clinton Administration's agenda for North Korea is to constrain its buildup and export of ballistic missiles, especially the medium-range
Taepo Dong I that threatens Japan, and the Taepo Dong II, which North Korea has never test-fired but which is believed capable of reaching American territory.
Besides the ever-present possibility that North Korea's million-man army could suddenly invade the South and reignite the Korean War, the great American fear is that North Korea would arm one of its long-range missiles with a nuclear warhead and threaten to fire it — or perhaps actually launch it — at an American city.
These concerns are driving the Pentagon's effort to develop a multibillion-dollar weapon system for shooting down long-range missiles in flight — a defense system capable of dealing with multiple missile threats, but clearly aimed at the potential one from North Korea.
Agencies track Internet visitors
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Despite a White House prohibition, 13 government agencies are secretly using technology that tracks the Internet habits of people visiting their Web sites, and in at least one case providing the information to a private company, a congressional review has found.
The agencies range from the Federal Aviation Administration to the federal offices that provide disaster relief and administer Medicare, the General Accounting Office found in a study obtained by The Associated Press.
"How can this administration talk about protecting privacy when its own agencies jeopardize some of the public's most private information?" asked Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., chairman of the Senate
Governmental Affairs Committee.
At issue is the use by the 13 government Web sites of small text files called "cookies" that record information about an Internet user's browsing habits when they visit a site.
In June, the White House Office of Management and Budget advised all federal agencies they were not allowed to use such text files without approval from the agency head. If they are used, Web site visitors must be given notice.
But the GAO found 13 agencies were using the technology to track visitors, although their formal Internet policy claimed they weren't, and none of the Web site visitors were advised the technology was being used.
The study found all 13 tracked consumers' paths during their visits to the site, and some were
employing text files that could be read for years after the initial visit. The U.S. Forest Service's International Programs site was found to be using "third-party cookies" that transmit the visitors' activities to a private company.
The other agencies found to be using the "cookies" software were the U.S. Customs Service, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Federal Emergency Management Agency, Office of National Drug Control Policy, Bureau of Land Management, Central Federal Lands Highway Division, the Energy Department's Ames Laboratory, National Park Service, Office of Personnel Management, the U.S. Trade and Development Agency and the Health Care Financing Administration, which runs Medicare.

Six cups of cappuccino. Three hours.
That was the task I set for myself Tuesday evening on a whirlwind tour of late-night coffee shops in downtown Lawrence. I spent time in a couple of them, but perhaps I was missing the very best atmosphere, the very best group of people or the very best cup of coffee.

In one evening, I decided to sample all the Java emporiums in the Massachusetts Street area. I would have the same drink - a small capuccino - at each.
This is the account of my evening's travels. The different shops are not rated in any numerical, or particularly logical, system. Instead, I've assigned each emporium a descriptive adjective that describes the essence of my experience there. Additional information is attached, depending entirely on my whim.
Bourgeois Pig 6 East 9th St.
I began here at 7:45 p.m. with high expectations. I'd heard the name of this combination coffee shop and bar bandied about and was looking forward to experiencing the ambience.
The coffee looked great, and was in a stylish little black mug. But there were grounds in the brew, which gave it a distressing texture.
The inside of the shop was small, but the bar area was attractive, and the bartender/barista sported a pompadour, beard AND sideburns. The cappuccino was the most expensive of the nights' -$2.75 for a small cup. Kudos to the music selection though, which included Neil Young, the Beatles and Bruce Springsteen.
"You won't get better than this," the server told me after passing me the cup.
I certainly hoped I would.
Descriptive adjective: Gritty

Java Dive
10 East 9th St.
Taking a cue from Perkins, this shop was brightly lit, cleanly furnished and stuffed with prepubescent looking undergrads.
That's also why it was disturbing
Coffee shops, at least in this reporter's mind, aren't meant to have bright paintings on the walls and studying taking place. Cigarette
quiet, rilet yet study big taking place. Sugar eat smoke is supposed to billow across the room, choking anyone who dares to inhale deeply. The tasteful, smoke-free Java Dive just seemed way too normal.
While waiting for my cup of cappuccino (the longest wait of any shop I visited in the evening), I ran across Kansan sports columnist Chris Wristen, who was there for some coffee and study. The Dive is Wristen's shop of choice, for the same reasons it unsettled me. For some reason, he likes a quiet, positive atmosphere in which to do his homework.
The coffee itself was pleasant and foamy — an entirely competent cup. And I can't dislike any store that tapes up a Hilltopics page (last week's photo essay about coffee shops, to be precise).
Wristen wished me luck, and I moved on.
Descriptive adjective: Perky

Henry's
11 East 8th St.
My coffee shop of choice. That probably disqualifies me from providing a truly objective review, but Henry's offered a nice combination of style and substance.
Chatters can chat, students can study and the strange old men can regale each other with strange, half-remembered anecdotes. Exemplary
baristas brew their concoctions with the concentration of fine artists, and European-style furnishings litter the shop's cozy interior. Plus, lots of people I know go there.
The coffee was the smoothest I'd had to that point, a pleasant blending of the espresso and milk necessary for a good cappuccino, topped with the thickest layer of foam yet. Unfortunately, I was beginning to overload on caffine by that point and spent most of my time in the store writing notes about the brands of cigarettes customers were smoking.
I spent a good deal of time speaking with Stan Handshy, Erie sophomore (who happened to be smoking Marlboro lights). He was drinking straight black coffee from a mug the size of a backyard swimming pool.

The drink tasted oddly nutty, but not unpleasantly so. I took a sip and
The cafe contained six Internet-ready computers,free for customers' use. Generic alternative rock music played at a low volume. Lamps on the tables were iMac-translucent. The place only lacked regular customers' — an obvious crowd to define it. This unassuming business had much potential.
Or so it seemed to me.
In the interests of full disclosure, however, I must admit my jitters were pretty bad by this point. The three previous cups of coffee weren't making me perky, but instead nervous and paranoid. Being only two-thirds done with the journey, I considered calling it quits. In the interests of science and a complete article, however, I steeled my nerves and continued.
Descriptive adjective: Translucent Preparation time: Two minutes and five seconds
Java Break
17 East 7th St.
This is the coffee shop you should go to if you want to feel cool. Of all the shops I visited, the Break — more than any other — reeked of alterna-hipness. There was an odd assortment of rickety furniture, old concert posters on the walls and cases full of mismatched paperbacks.
My coffee was produced more quickly here than anywhere else — probably because the shot of espresso already had been made. It was hot, foamy and beginning to be indistinguishable from every other cup of coffee I'd had.
Multiple rooms were the Break's main drawback. A visitor couldn't instantly see who was there — one had to walk around the three different rooms and endure the cold stares of those who wanted to be left alone. The shop also attracts a younger crowd — thanks both to the coolness factor I mentioned and being open 24 hours a day.

hyperness.
La Prima Tazza 638 Massachusetts St.
A pleasant end to a night full of caffeinated
I was rattled by the time I entered the store. It was 10:30, and five cups of charged cappuccino were blazing their way through my system. The experiment, such as it was, needed to end. Right there.
Thankfully, La Prima Tazza was the last open shop I could find in the downtown area. Any more might have driven me irrevocably bonkers. As it was, the brightly lit and spotlessly clean store soothed my frayed nerves.
I ordered my sixth and final cup. I sampled it and nodded agreeably as instrumental jazz played over the store's speakers. Any powers of comparison I may have had were weakened by the coffee-flavored fuzz coating the inside of my mouth.
Three other customers — working on math homework— were in the store. I sipped on my cappuccino and smiled. I had survived the night. I had survived the coffee. I had survived crowds of angst-ridden twenty-somethings.
But most importantly, I'd seen a cross-section of late-night coffee culture in Lawrence.
Had I learned anything?
Absolutely. Drinking six cups of cappuccino is insane.

Bigger win needed before fans tear down the goal posts
Terry Allen, next time I hope you use a cattle prod.
If that's the only way to deal with stupid fans, then by all means do what you have to do.
in case you missed what transpired following the conclusion of the Kansas-Colorado football game at Memorial Stadium on Saturday, here's the gist of it. The Kansas football team had just defeated the Colorado Buffaloes, 23-15. It was Homecoming. The victory improved Kansas to 4-3 and edged the Jayhawks closer and closer to a possible bowl game. Life was good.
That is until 15 to 20 fans ran out onto the field in a moronic gesture and attempted to tear down the goal post.
Yeah, I'm not joking. They were hard to miss. The same people who probably celebrate and tear up their apartments each time Full House comes on TV were out there attempting to tear down the goal post in the south end zone after the Jayhawks beat a 1-6 team.
Most of the 32,600 people in attendance booed, players shook their heads and the public address announcer told them to get down. Allen, Kansas' fourth-year coach, finally went into the end zone and talked to them himself.
"I didn't physically pull anybody off, but I did tell them to get down," Allen said in his post-game press conference. "Hopefully, we're beyond celebrating when we beat a 1.5 football team. We love the enthusiasm, but let's be real, too."
To those 15 to 20 fans who made the jaunt out to the end zone and attempted to tear down the goal post: The message that your little antics sent out to other schools across the country is sad.
Sure this was Colorado, a big-name school who was favored by one and a half points. But the fact is that the Buffaloes aren't that good this year. They are in a transition phase with a freshman quarterback and only have won one game all year.
The Jayhawks should have won this game. So act like it.
By going out and attempting to tear down the goal post, it sends the message that Kansas fans will settle for anything. Let's aim a little bit higher. When the Kansas basketball team beats Kansas State in Allen Fieldhouse, no fans storm the court. Let's try and create that same atmosphere in Memorial Stadium.
I went into the Kansas locker room after Saturday's game to ask some of the players what they thought. While most of them appreciated the fans getting excited, they also looked at the bigger picture as well.
"It was pretty funny," said senior quarterback Dylan Smith. "But they were 1-5. If we beat Texas in a couple weeks, then that might be a reason to tear down the goal posts."
Yes, tearing down the goal posts after a victory against Texas is probably warranted, but I like junior defensive back Quincy Roe's idea even better.
"Maybe we should wait," Roe said. "Wait until we go to a bowl game. That would be nice."

Jayhawks hold on to stomp Buffaloes
By Allan Davis

In recent memory, when the Kansas football team plays Colorado, the Jayhawks usually come away unhappy.
The Buffalooes didn't give up or go down easily. They played with the desperation of a team that saw its bowl hopes going up in smoke after a sixth loss but couldn't quite catch the Jayhawks in the fourth quarter.
But this year, after Kansas' 23-15 victory Saturday, the shoe is on the other hoof.
With 8:47 to play in the game, Jayhawk redshirt freshman Reggie Duncan scored on a six-yard run that gave Kansas a 23-12 lead. The Buffaloes tried to recover but could only muster a field goal, closing the gap to 23-15 with 6:45 to play.
Colorado got the ball back with 237 left to play and a chance to tie the game with a touchdown and a two-point conversion. The Buffaloes were forced to play beat-the球 and came up short when, with 1:18 remaining. Colorado quarterback Craig Ochs' fourth-and-18 pass from the Jahaywack 22-yard line was incomplete. Then the 'Hawks ran out of the clock.
The Jayhawks held the Buffalo offense to three field goals, and Colorado's only touchdown came on a 66-yard punt return by Roman Hollowell.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said the defense did an excellent job keeping Colorado out of the end zone.
"They made it happen when they had to," Allen said. "That's an outstanding effort. They did a nice job. We were in a lot of man coverage. They completed the passes in there, but we didn't let them get in the end zone."
Marcus Rogers, junior linebacker, led the Jayhawks with 11 tackles. He said the Jayhawk offense made the defense's job easier by controlling the ball.
"They were clicking the whole game and kept us rested in the end," he said. "They had

good time of possession, so they took advantage of the clock and were moving the ball at the same time. So they helped a lot."
On offence, Kansas quarterback Dylan Smith's mobility bought him time to scramble and find open receivers downfield or take off downfield himself. He was also able to successfully run the quarterback draw and finished with 84 yards on 11 carries.
One of Smith's receiving targets was senior running back David Winbush, who, in addition to his 84 yards rushing, also had five receptions for 97 yards.
Kansas and Colorado each made field goals on the game's first possessions, but the Jayhawks dominated the first quarter — with the exception of one play: the 66-yard punt return for a touchdown by Hollowell with 2:29 remaining in the first quarter. However, junior defensive back Jamarel Bryant blocked the extra point, and Colorado led only 9:3.
On the first play of the second quarter, Winbush scored on a three-yard run. Senior place kicker Joe Garcia added another field goal with two seconds to play in the half.
Trailing 13-9, Colorado opened the second half by driving to the Jayhawk two-yard line, but the Buffaloes were forced to settle for a field goal. The Jayhawks got the three points back when Garcia, with the wind at his back, hit a 52-yard field goal, and the Jayhawk lead was back to four, setting the stage for the dramatic fourth quarter.

'Hawks can't repeat earlier season win

The Kansas volleyball team's lone win in 25 matches against Colorado earlier this season seemed to be just a bip on the screen as the Buffalo roiled against the Jayhawks Saturday night in Boulder, Colo.
The Jayhawks fell in three games to the Buffaloes, 15-11, 15-12, 15-11, at the Coors Event Center. The Buffaloes improved to an even 9-9 on the season and 5-6 in the Big 12 Conference, while the 'Hawks drop to 12-8, 3-8 in the conference.
"We came out pretty strong at the beginning of all three games," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "However, we didn't play well at the end of each game to finish them off."
Kansas downed Colorado in their first Big 12 meeting of the season Sept. 13 in five games at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center, ending a 13-year losing streak in a two-hour struggle. But this time around, the Buffaloes disposed of the Jayhawks in just an hour and 35 minutes.
"I don't know if we're timid on the road or what, but we weren't intense enough to win that night," said Nancy Bell, senior outside hitter.
Kansas' senior outside hitter Amy Myatt had a game-high 18 kills, but it was Colorado's junior outside hitter Sonja Nielsen and her 15 kills that made an impact.
"We didn't execute our game plan —
Volleyball: Colorado 3, Kansas 0
(15-11, 15-12, 15-11)
our game plan was to stop her (Nielsen)
—and we just didn't do it and she hurt us
a lot," Bell said. "We weren't digging her,
or blocking her, we were just letting her
swing."
In fact, digging seemed to be Kansas' major fault. The Jayhawks' dived to only 54 digs compared to the 70 recorded by Colorado. The Buffaloes' sophomore middle blocker Meghan Barkman had a game-high 15 digs.
Blocking also became a problem for the 'Hawks, who recorded 10 to the Buffaloes' 15.
"We blocked some balls that were in good coverage by them," Bechard said. "They were more aware of the ball coming off the blocks."
However, the 'Hawks weren't pushed around by the Buffaloes the full span of the match. The Jayhawks led during both the second and third games only to fumble when the games entered double digits.
"It was back and forth for a while, but they always came back," Bell said. "It wasn't lack of desire, it was lack of execution."
The Jayhawks will regroup for a matchup against Texas A&M at 7:06 p.m. Wednesday at the Horejsi Center. The game will be televised on Fox Sports Net on Friday.

Kansas ends three-game losing streak with two Texas ties

The Jayhawks, who entered the weekend after a three-game losing streak, came away with two ties against two highly regarded teams in the Lone Star State despite rainy conditions. After snapping the losing streak in Denton with a 2-2 tie against North Texas on Friday, Kansas again tied Baylor 1-1 yesterday.
A splash of mud stained the Jayhawk uniforms as well as their record, but battles in the rain didn't spoil the Kansas women's soccer team's self-esteem.

"The point we got was actually two points that we didn't get because we dominated the game and should have won," said Kansas coach Mark Francis after yesterday's game. "They felt lucky to get away with a point, and we were disappointed with the tie. But it's certainly better than nothing."
Conference.
Sophomore defender Brianna Valento scored the first goal of the game in the 24th minute, when the Baylor defense failed to clear a blocked shot in front of the Bears' goal.
After Baylor managed to equalize the game, Kansas, despite playing on the muddy field, had at least two scoring chances. But Baylor goalkeeper Dawn Greathouse, who was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week the week of Oct. 9, made two spectacular saves and helped the Bears avoid their first-ever loss to Kansas.
Freshman goalkeeper Sarah Gonzalez made the fourth consecutive start and registered eight saves, including two in overtime.
"We should have won," Francis said.
"You have to play well and get lucky sometimes to win. We played well but were a bit unlucky tonight."
Throughout the game, Kansas handled
"That really summed up the overtime for us." Francis said.
Unlike for Francis, the tie was acceptable for North Texas coach John Heldund
But what Kansas didn't have Friday night was, as Francis said, luck. In the second overtime period, the Jayhawks fired seven shots, but four of them hit the woodwork on the Lady Eagles' goal.
"Both teams had their chances, but with the conditions the way they were, it's probably best that it ended in a tie," said Hedlund. "It's just hard to get anything going in these conditions. I can't remember a field being this bad."
rainy conditions relatively well, outshooting North Texas 26-10 and outcornering the nonconference foe 7-0.
Kansas went up 2-1 in the 38th minute on senior forward Colleen Colvin's team-leading fifth goal of the season. Colvin pushed the ball into an open net just after North Texas goalie Monicain Poudresdent lost control of a loose ball in a puddle of water.
Kansas' first goal came in the 20th minute, when sophomore defender Pardis Brown buried a shot from deep in the right corner and tied the game at 1-1. The goal was Brown's first with the Jayhawks.
"Both teams played well considering what they had to play in." Hedlund said.
Kansas will wrap up the 2000 season Friday as it faces Missouri at 4 p.m. in Columbia, Mo.

According to Internet reports, Kansas has fallen in the eyes of Aaron Miles, a 6-foot point guard from Portland, Ore., and Josh Childress, a 6-10 forward from Lakewood, Calif.
Several recruiting sources said during the weekend that Kansas had fallen behind Arizona in the race for Miles' promise. These same sources stated last week it was almost a sure thing that Miles would become a layback.
Meanwhile, Stanford is reportedly in the lead for Childress, *Pac-West Hoops* reported that while Childress likes Kansas, he is leaning toward becoming a member of the Cardinal because of the school's proximity to home and its academics.
Another of Kansas' recruits, Jamal Sampson, was supposed to make a decision during the weekend, but didn't. Sampson, a 6-10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., was supposed to choose between Kansas, Connecticut, California-Berkley, and Saint Louis by yesterday, according to The Hartford Courant.

'Hawks win doubles title
Section B·Page 3
By Brandon Stinnett Special to the Kansan
For the second year in a row, Kansas men's tennis player Rodrigo Echagaray emerged as a doubles champion from the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Region V Tennis Individual Championships in Tulsa.
Only, this time around, Echagaray, a junior, was paired with a different partner. Sophomore Eleazar Magallan stepped in for Echagaray's usual partner, senior Ed Dus, who did not make the trip with the team.
"It is awesome to win this again, this time with a different partner." Echagaray said. "It was the first time that Eleazar and I had played together, and we played really well. It is a great accomplishment for the two of us."
Despite limited experience playing together, Echagay and Magellan powered through the competition, compiling a 5-0 match record. The team defeated Drake's Tim Miller and Stephen Killian 8-5 in the finals.
Coach Ross Nwachukwu said the
pair played well together, despite their lack of experience playing together.
"I'm proud of them because they overcame adversity and performed beautifully together," said
Nwachukwu. "As
KANSAS
TENNIS
a coach, I'm very proud."
proud.
Another Kansas doubles team made waves in the tournament.
Junior Quentin
Blakeney and sophomore Pete Stroerow three straight matches before bowing out to Miller and Killian. 8-4 in the semifinals.
Blakeney and Stroer's run to the semifinals was highlighted by a first-round upset of second-seeded Maciej Dilaj and Mirko Jovanovic of Colorado, in a match Nwachukw said was one of the highest-quality doubles he had ever seen.
Things didn't go as well for Kansas on the singles side, where no Jayhawk reached the finals. Echagaray came the closest after defeating Blakeney, 6-1, 6-1, in the quarterfinals. But Echagaray's run
ended in the semifinals with a 7.6,75 loss to Oklahoma State's Matt Prentice.
Blakeney's loss to Echagaray snapped his string of three consecutive victories.
Magallan, the tournament's defending singles champion, was eliminated in the second round by Nebraska's Lance Mills, 3-6, 1-4, 6-4.
Freshman Andrew Metzler made his presence felt in the tournament by winning four matches, including a surprising upset of 11th-seeded Love Brajovic of Indiana State in the first round.
Metzler used a pair of victories in the qualifying round on Thursday to advance to the main draw, where he defeated Brajkovic and Evansville's Anthony Wollschager in the second round. But his winning streak ended in the round of 16 with a loss to Prentice, the fifth seed.
"Im impressed with Andy in the respect that he has come in here and showed upperclassman qualities," Nwachukwu said. "This will be an incredible learning experience for him."

Swim team diving into season
By Ryan Dolan
A walk-on freshman and 2000 Olympic trial swimmers highlighted the 13-event Kansas intrasquad swim meet that kicked off the season Friday at Robinson Natatorium.
Special to the Kansan
Team captains split the squad into two teams, the Crimson and the Blue, to compete against each other. The Crimson swam to victory with 120-94 for the men, while the women's Blue team won 56-48.
The meet had two goals: prepare the swimmers for competition and provide coaches with a framework to place them.
"He was born a distance swimmer. He just never ever gets tired." said men's coach Doug Dickinson
The sole male KU swimmer to compete in the 2000 Olympic Trials, Brian Soria, won the men's 1000-yard and men's 500-yard freestyle events Friday.
about the Sahta Fe Springs, Calif., sonhore.
Carrie Kirkham, Houston, Texas.
Junior, sprinted to victory in the 50-
yard freestyle in 24.44 seconds and in
the 100-yard freestyle in 53.09.
Kirkham returns this year as one of
four women Jayhawks who swam in
the Olympic Trials last August.
Although her 50 freestyle time was a full second slower than her best time last year, women's coach Cathy Burgess said she thought Kirkham gave a solid performance.
"She'll be faster next week," said Burgess, referring to "Thursday's dual meet with Texas A&M and Friday's Big 12 Conference swimming relays, both at Robinson Natatorium.
Walk-on Brian Brown, West Hills, Calif., freshman, went relatively unrecruited out of high school. He won the 400-yard individual medley by four seconds, with a time of 4:10.03, just weeks after trying out for the sound.
Kristen Johnson, Wichita freshman, stood out among the nine freshman women by winning the women's 200-yard breaststroke and finishing second in the women's 400-yard individual medley.
"I see good things for him," Dickinson said. "I feel lucky just that he walked in my door."
Dickinson said the team still needed to improve for this week's meets.
Texas A&M, who comes to Kansas on Thursday for the dual meet, will play host to the NCAA championships this year and should be one of the top squads in the conference and the nation this year. Texas, one of the five other Big 12 schools that field swimming and diving teams, participate in the Big 12 Relays on Friday. The Longhorns won the men's NCAA 2000 championship and sent five swimmers to the 2000 Olympics in Australia.

Big 12 Football Kansas' bowl hopes alive
By Zac Hunter sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
After a week one loss to Southern Methodist, the Kansas football team was down.
were talking about after the game.
This time, it was dead in the water. But now, after two straight conference wins and a record of 4-3, the Kansas ship has not only regained full power to its engines, it now has set its course for a bowl game.
After the Oct. 7 disaster against Kansas State, it was dead in the water.
So where has the confidence come from to turn the season around?
It comes from coach Terry Allen and his pounding the idea of a six-game season in the heads of his players. And the message is getting across, considering that's what Allen and his players
Despite being undefeated in the "new season," Allen won't let his team forget that the next game on the schedule is more important than a bowl game.
"We are now 2-0 with four games to go." Allen said. "It's a new season."
"We have to be concerned with the next game and take it one game at a time," he said.
While Allen wants to keep his team focused only on the next game, it is impossible to keep the players from looking ahead to a bowl game that is just coming into view on the horizon.
"We need two more (wins) for a possible bowl game," said senior running back David Winbush.
Senior quarterback Dylen Smith agreed.
"We're not out of it by any means."
The two wins might have to come in three games, even though there are four to play. In two weeks, the 'Hawks head to Lincoln to play the No. 1-ranked, undefeated Nebraska Cornhuskers, who seem to be hitting their stride.
he said.
But first, Kansas has to beat Texas Tech on Saturday, a task its players think they are up to.
"We've been practicing our butts off," Garcia said.
Senior kicker Joe Garcia credited the Jayhawk resurgence to a new mentality in practice. After the Kansas State loss Allen instituted a new, more physical practice regiment.
Garcia added if the Jayhawks just kept working hard, everything in the bowl picture would take care of itself.

Cornhuskers annihilate Bears, 59-0
Bv Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Cornhuskers (7-0, 4-0 Big 12 Conference) scored on their first nine possessions and set a school record by scoring 38 points in the first quarter.
Nebraska outgained Baylor (25, 0-4)
189 yards to one in the first quarter, and
Nebraska led 52-0 at halftime at Lincoln,
Neb.
'Husker quarterback Eric Crouch played just the first quarter, and the only starters to play in the second half were the offensive linemen, who played the opening series of the third quarter.
K-State's Jonathan Beasley scored his 15th touchdown of the season, breaking a school record. Beasley also was sacked for a safety.
Baylor finished with only 84 total yards, five rushing. The Bears have now been shut out in three consecutive games.
The Wildcats led 14-9 at halftime and never led by more than 12 points. K-State running back John Scooby scored with 3:52 to play, making the score 28-16.
No. 10 Kansas State 28, Texas Tech 23
The Wildcats (71, 3; 1, 1) had a tougher time with the Red Raiders (5, 3; 1, 3) in Manhattan than most people expected.
Texas Tech's Shaud Williams scored with 31 seconds to play, but K-State recovered the ensuing onside kick.
Red Raider quarterback Kliff Kingsbury passed for 302 yards and a touchdown but also was sacked four times. He threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter.
Texas 46, Missouri 12
The Longhorns (5-2, 3-1) led the Tigers (2-5, 1-3) only 17-12 in the third quarter at Austin, Texas. But after Missouri downed a punt at the Texas one-yard line, the Longhorns took control, driving 99 yards for a score and winning going away.
Texas' Hodges Mitchell finished with
151 yards rushing, including a 41-yard touchdown run.
Major Applewhite completed 20 of 31 passes for 277 yards and three touchdowns, breaking the school record for touchdown passes. He now has 55. Texas A&M 30, Iowa State 7
In Ames, Iowa, the Aggies (5-2, 3-1) dominated the Cyclones (5-2, 2-2) defensively, shutting them out until 2:36 remained in the game.
Texas A&M quarterback Mark Farris completed 16-of-27 passes for 248 yards and two touchdowns.
Iowa State, which had been averaging 446.5 yards per game offensively, finished with only 293 yards total offense. Iowa State's Emis Haywood, the leading rusher in the Big 12, carried 14 times for 75 yards — 53 below his average.
No. 3 Oklahoma (6-0, 3-0) and Oklahoma State (2-4, 0-3) did not play this weekend.

A star of the future?
Minor Injuries
I can step up and run the ball. So I think it keeps them on their toes and helps our team make plays."
Double threat
Senior fullback Moran Norris came up limping on the third play from scrimmage and had to leave the game. Norris came back in on 'kansas' next series, ran twice for 10 yards, then left the game and didn't return. Norris said he thought his injury, a sprained左刃骸, wouldn't keep him out of next week's game against Texas Tech. They 'X-ray it, and it wasn't broken or anything,' he said. "Hopefully, I can get back next week to help the team. I came
"I think it keeps them from blitzing a lot,
he said. "If they stay back, a hole's open."
Redshirt freshman running back Reggie Duncan gave the fans a look at the Jayhawk future when he broke free for a 38-yard run in the fourth quarter. Two plays later, Duncan scored from six yards out, putting Kansas ahead 23-12, Duncan, who plays behind senior David Winbush, finished with 42 yards rushing.
Keeping the defense honest
Senior quarterback Dylan Smith said his mobility and running ability forced the defense to alter its strategy.
back in, but it was still hurting."
Senior offensive tackle John Oddonetto also suffered a sprained left ankle.
Double threat
Winbush, who had fiveceptions, said he enjoyed catching passes as well as rushing. "I like to take pressure off my quarterback." Winbush said. "I like to be a safety valve for him. I enjoy catching the ball."
nansas coach Terry Allen said Winbush was an important part of the offense.
"I thought the key to this game was David Winstubin getting the football in the open field and making receptions," Alien said.

Man braves wild to uncover site of Survivor II set
NEW YORK — CBS is finding some people willing to go a lo-o-o-o-n way to spill its Survival II secrets.
An Australian adventurer says he nearly got run off the road and had to battle nettles and mites just so he could post a map on his Web site to what he says was the TV show's secret set.
The directions, to a remote gorge about a four-hour drive from the northeastern Australia city of Cairns, correspond with other published reports of the Survivor II location. Media magnate Rupert Murdoch's Australian newspapers have published aerial photographs of the area.
The series, being filmed this fall, will premiere after the Super Bowl.
the latest alleged security breach came from a fellow called Tim "The Yowie Man," an Australian tour guide who saves him is a "mystery investigator."
He said he attempted to drive on to the compound but two trucks with security guards nearly forced him off the road. He drove about 20 miles away, ditched his vehicle and walked along a river to the site.
He foraged for berries, bush bananas and fish, and said the forbidding territory was home to crocodiles, leeches and the unpleasant mites.
"I wanted to see if I could survive looking for the Survivor site." Tim said.
He said he saw a tent city for crew members and what looked to be a set for a tribal council meeting. A large platform jutted out from a cliff near a waterfall, he said.
CBS, which has tried to keep its outback location under wraps, wouldn't comment on "The Yowie Man's" directions.
"The Yowie Man" said he wasn't spotted by anyone, and left after an hour because he was afraid of being subject to a fine if captured.
"We will continue to let erroneous information be published about Survivor, not only in the print media, but online as well," CBS representative Gil Schwartz said Friday.

Warner sideline in Chiefs victory
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kurt Warner, last season's NFL and Super Bowl MVP and the league's leading passer, sat out the second half of Kansas City's 54-34 victory yesterday because of injuries to both hands. How long he'll be sidelined was not immediately known. Elvis Grbac injured his right elbow at the end of the third
Warner broke the little finger on his right hand on a fumbled snap at the end of a first half in which the Chiefs (4-3) took a 27-14 lead. The Rams (6-1) also said Warner jammed his left hand earlier in the half on the team's first game this season on a grass field.
Grbac was hurt when he was tackled by Leonard Little. His status is unknown.
Trent Green came into the game trailing 34-14 after the Chiefs scored on their first possession of the second half. He was 15-of-21 for 206 yards, with one interception and three TDs.
Grbac was replaced by Warren Moon, who hadn't appeared in a game since Nov. 7, 1989. Moon was 3-for-3 for 78 vards and one TD.
In their first three possessions, the Chiefs got the ball on the St. Louis 25, 49, and 38, and came away with Frank Moreau's 2-yard touchdown run and field goals of 20 and 34 vards by Todd Peterson.
The next time the Chelfs touched the ball, Mike Cloud scoped up a blocked punt on the 6-yard line and ran into the end zone, shocking the Rams with a 20-0 lead with almost three minutes remaining in the quarter.
Grbac's 30-yard TD pass to Derrick Alexander put the Chiefs on top 84-14 on their first possession of the second half.
Then Green connected with Roland Williams for a 31-yard scoring strike.
Kimble Anders' 69-yard run from scrimmage set up Moon's 8-yard TD pass to Troy Drayton. The Rams' last TD came on Green's 4-yard pass to Isaac Bruce with 2:53 to play.
Yankees ride Clemens to hold off Mets again
NEW YORK — Roger Clemens didn't throw a ball at Mike Piazza this time. Just a bat.
And when the benches emptied in the first inning, it was clear this Subway Series had a definite mean streak, fueled by a beaming that was for from fortune.
The Associated Press
far from forgotten.
Vanities
Clemens set the tone right away and pitched eight shutout innings, and the New York Yankees held off the Mets' five-run ninth for a 6.5 victory, yes.
terday and a 2-0 lead in the World Series.
Piazza seemed to unleash all his fury in the ninth, hitting a two-run homer off reliever Jefferson. Jay Payton hit a three-run homer off Mariano Rivera, but it could not stop the Yankees from posting their record 14th-straight World Series victory.
Ever since the Mets-Yankees matchup was set, the whole city wondered what would happen when Clemens faced Piazza for the first time since hitting him in the
head with a fastball in an interleague game July 9. Boos filled the ballpark at Piazza, 7-for-12 with three home runs lifetime against Clemens, slowly walked to the plate.
Then all the tension that had been brewing suddenly blew up.
Pizza shattered his bat on a foul ball, and the barrel went skittering toward the mound. Clemens instantly reacted, grabbing the broken piece and furiously slinging it in Piazza's path as the Mets star jogged toward first base.
Plazza stopped with the bat handle in his hand, looked at Clemens and took a couple of steps in his direction. As plate umpire Charlie Reliford rushed between them, players from the dugouts and bullpens ran onto the field.
There was some pushing, but no punching, as Clemens and Piazza were kept apart and order was quickly restored.
His cap pulled down low and his glove held high to shield all but his eyes, Clemens the Mets to two singles. Throwing 97 mph fastballs — along with the barrel of a shattered bat in Piazza's path — Clemens evened his career postseason record at 5-5 in 16 starts.

Group wants formal apology for erasings
By Meghan Bainum
writer @kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Some students involved in chalking the pro-queer comments on University of Kansas sidewalks believe their first amendment rights were violated and now want a formal apology from the University.
Kat Randolph, Portland, Ore., junior, said she thought the University's intolerance for the chalked writings created a dangerous climate for those who chose to express themselves in ways different than the norm because it revealed a strong intolerance for diversity.
"The University's actions are, we feel, school-sanctioned discrimination," Randolph said. "The school has censored specifically our group."
Randolph was one of about nine students not affiliated with Queers and Allies who sent a letter to University Provost David Shulenburger; Wayne Pearse, Kansas Union building engineer; and KU Facilities Operations. The letter requested an apology for what the students consider to be discrimination by the University for erasing messages that contained announcements about Coming Out Day and others of a more graphic nature.
Queers and Allies did some of the chalkings, an independent group did others. Randolph said.
Randolph said the University was limiting sexual freedom of expression.
The letter stated: "We exercised our right to express our sexuality which is a constant and condoned practice of heterosexuals daily."
When the chalk writings were discovered in the morning, however, some writings near the Kansas Union were removed at Pearse's request, while others near Wescoe Hall were removed by Facilities Operations.
The letter claims that the group of about 20 students who chalked received permission from campus police and said that the police examined the chalkings the night before Coming Out Day for "disorderly conduct." but found nothing.
Shulenburger said it was not University policy to excase chalk writings off of sidewalks.
"I didn't know anything about the chalking on the sidewalks," he said. "I didn't ask that it be removed. It needs to be made very clear that it was an action that some folks in Facilities Operations took."
Pearse said that he originally ordered only the messages with what he considered to be "fifthly language" to be removed, but that there was a misunderstanding and all the chalkings were erased from the Union Plaza. He said he had no objections to the subject matter, but was worried about visitors to the University, which include children, seeing what he considered to be foul language.
"I try to look at things like my mom or my children are standing beside me," Pearse said. "I would have removed any filth language. We have to be respectful, I think all of us, to the decency of society."
Facilities Operations director Doug Rait said the only writings removed were the writings on the walls and steps around Wesco hill. These writings were considered graffiti. He said Facilities Operations also responded to Pearse's request to remove the writings in front of the Kansas Union.

Yesterday on Wescoe Beach, members of Latin American Solidarity read the names of these and numerous other victims of the El Mozote massacre.
The names were read to raise awareness of SOAWatch, an organization that seeks to halt the activities of the government-sponsored School of the Americas in Fort Benning, Ga. The school trains Latin American soldiers in combat, counter-insurgency and counter-narcotics.
Many groups, such as Latin American Solidarity at the University of Kansas, said that graduates from this school were responsible for countless human rights abuses in Latin America, including the assassination of Arch-Bishop Oscar Romero and the mass murder of civilians in the El Mozote massacre.
Holly Worthen, McPherson junior and member of Latin American Solidarity, participated yesterday and said reading the names of about 900 victims of the massacre brought the issue closer to home.
"Reading the names to KU students makes a distant problem a reality." Worthen said.
Markus Weyel, organizer of SOAWatch in Kansas, said 204 of the 435 members of the U.S. House of Representatives voted to close the School of America. Weyel said many representatives were pressured by President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore and Secretary of State Madeline Albright to vote against closing down the school. Rep. Dennis Moore was the only member of the House from Kansas who voted for closing the school.
"There was lots of pressure put on the representatives," Weyel said. "But it's amazing that 204 still voted to close."
Weyel travels throughout Kansas informing people about human rights abuses in Latin America that he believes are tied to the School of the Americas. He also is having a training session on civil disobedience at 1 p.m. Saturday at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., for those interested in attending a nonviolent demonstration in Fort Benning, Ga. The protest will be Friday, Nov. 17, through Sunday, Nov. 19.
"It's so people are prepared," Weyel said. "It's been nonviolent for 10 years, and we want to keep it nonviolent."
Nocona Peewardy, Lawrence graduate student, attended the reading of the names to support the November protest in Fort Benning. Peewardy said solidarity would make a difference.
"I think this is a very hopeful time, lots of grass roots movements making a difference." Peweward said. "Anywhere that you participate to confront oppression, you promote human rights."
Adam Koch, Hutchinson junior, signed up on the mailing list after hearing the list of names of the people killed.
"It's a huge list and it goes on and on," Koch said. "It really angers me that the United States is funding a militant group that's supposed to be fighting a drug war, and they're violating human rights."

More lights, parking passes improve safety at complex

Management at Orchard Corners apartment complex, 1405 Apple Lane, near 15th Street and Kasold Drive, has increased security during the past week to make the complex safer for residents in the wake of recent criminal activities.
Brett Lambert, Overland Park sophmore and Orchard Corners resident, said he received a file from the management on his door Friday.
"Our main interests are securing the safety of our residents at Orchard Corners," said Bobbie Wintle, Mastercraft manager.
"It was a friendly letter restating the rules of the lease we signed," Lambert said.
Wintle said management was keeping a close eye on the complex.
He said that he had not been concerned about his safety before but that he thought the new measures were an improvement.
Lambert and resident Brian Hami,
Topeka junior, both noticed floodlights
installed in the parking lot last week.
Hanni and his roommate Travis Franke, Topeka junior, saw cars without parking stickers be towed from
Franke said his landlord called last week because he and his roommates had not yet picked up parking permits and explained the policy about parties to them. Franke was told that residents would be warned once for having a party and evicted if there was another within 14 days. He said he was not sure what would happen if residents had a second party after the 14-day time frame.
the complex Friday night.
Winkle confirmed that lights had been installed in the complex parking lot and that residents had been informed about a policy regarding parties but declined to comment further.
Orchard Corners had experienced problems in the past with parties getting out of control, said Jared Langford, Tecumseh sophomore who had attended between 15 and 20 parties at the complex.
A Johnson County Community College student and a Pittsburgh State student were stabbed during a fight that began as they were leaving a party at the complex Oct. 1, Lawrence police said. Police also said gunshots were fired during an alteration that started at a party Aug. 20. Residents also had filed reports with the police for recent car burglars.

A University of Kansas student who is on the football and track teams was shot in the arm early Friday morning in the 3500 block of West Sixth Street, Lawrence police said.
Eric Dee Patterson, wide receiver and Long Beach, Calif., senior, was at the Kwik Shop, 3440 W. Sixth St., at 12:15 a.m. when he saw two males he had had a confrontation with this summer, Lawrence police Det. M.T. Brown said.
Brown said Patterson reported that he was followed by a dark-colored Blazer when he left the Kwik Shop. Patterson believed the Blazer's occupants were the two men he had seen in the convenience store.
Brown said Patterson drove himself to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and released.
Patterson pulled into the parking lot between Henry T's Bar & Grill, 3520 W. Sixth St., and First Bank, 3500 W. Sixth St., to see what the men
wanted. As he was getting out of the car, one of the men shot him in the arm.
"I talked with Eric shortly after he was released from the hospital and found out the wounds were superficial," said football coach Terry Allen. "He was obviously the victim in an unfortunate situation, and we will support him through this process."
Doug Vance, assistant athletics director, said Patterson did not play in Saturday's game and would not play this weekend. Vance said it would be a game-by-game situation.
Brown said Patterson recognized the two males but did not know their names or how police could contact them.
Brown said police still were investigating and did not have any suspects yet.
Patterson could not be reached for comment.

Bush draws crowd at Kansas City rally
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Republican presidential nominee George W. Bush energized more than 500 supporters during a 50-minute rally at Kansas City's Downtown Airport yesterday mom ing.
Joined by four Republican governors, Bush told the crowd, "I want you to know my spirits are high. I'm ready for the next two weeks."
The rally was the nominee's first stop on a "Barnstorm for Reform" tour, taking him next to Des Moines, Iowa, and Milwaukee.
The Texas governor outlined his plans to reform Social Security, Medicare, education funding and the tax code. He fielded questions from the crowd, drawing the biggest cheers for his remarks about farmers. He called agriculture a national security issue and promised to end policies that run farmers off their land.
Bush was joined by Govs. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, Bill Graves of Kansas, Kenny Guinn of Nevada and Bob Taft of Ohio. Taft requested a moment of silence for Missouri's late Gov. Mel Camahan, a Democrat killed in a plane crash a week ago.
The prepared text of Bush's speech opened with a paragraph devoted to Camahan, describing him as "a fine man and a good servant of the people here in Missouri."
However, Bush did not read that paragraph in delivering his speech.
His only mention of Carnahan came in response to a question having to do with the flow of water in the Missouri River.
Bosnian War tensions blamed for bar assault
ST. LOUIS — Leftover hard feelings from the Bosnian war were thought to be responsible for an assault in a St. Louis bar frequented by Bosnian immigrants.
About 1 a.m. Sunday, Damir Didovic and his brother Mirsaid began closing their bar, Sweet P's, in the Bevo neighborhood of south St. Louis. About six men with baseball bats arrived at the front door, according to Shirley Rukic, a patron and friend of the owners.
Damir Didovic was beaten and taken to Barnes-Jewish Hospital to be treated for two broken ribs and a collapsed lung. Rukic said. A hospital representative would not confirm that Didovic, 36, had been admitted.
The attack was unusually severe, the patrons said, but it was just the latest in a series of brawls that have managed to further drive a wedge in the region's Bosnian community, which numbers from 20.000 to 30.000.
The conflict has its roots in their wartorn homeland. Sweet P.'s patrons, who call themselves West Bosnians, long ago allied themselves with Finkret Abdlic, a Bosnian Muslim businessman who established an "autonomous" region in northwest Bosnia with an eye toward toppling the government in Sarajevo.
Cell phones to track location of customers
WASHINGTON — Cell phones soon will give wireless companies an idea of the whereabouts of customers and make it possible to market services to users based on where they like to shop and eat.
Before companies take advantage of these new business opportunities, the wireless industry wants the government to craft privacy rules.
The push for a nationwide policy by the leading wireless trade group — the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association — comes even as companies look to offer new location-based services on wireless phones. Consumers could receive a coupon for a free bagel on their phone as they walk by their favorite coffee shop, or someone stuck in a traffic jam could get information on alternate routes nearby.
The wireless industry was required by law to build more specific location technology into its networks so that public safety officials could pinpoint people making 911 calls from their cell phones. Companies are looking to harness that capability for new revenue opportunities.
But the benefits come with potential annoyances for consumers — such as getting unwanted ads on their phones—and privacy concerns.

Faculty advises grad students
By Jennifer Valadez writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Having a mentor may be one of the most important steps in making the transition from student to teacher.
That's one of the tips University of Kansas graduate students preparing to be faculty heard yesterday from KU professors and administrators during the "Transitioning From Graduate School to the Professorate" panel discussion. The discussion was part of the "Preparing Future Faculty" graduate school fall workshop.
The panel of four faculty members shared experiences and addressed issues vital to the transition from graduate school to the professorate. Some of the topics included research grant funds,
the importance of mentorships and understanding departmental culture.
Sandra Gautt, assistant provost, introduced the session's panelists as a "group that's looking at life after the dissertation."
Suzanne Boyd, assistant professor of social welfare, said a mentor relationship served as a valuable asset to her while she attended graduate school.
"I had a strong mentorship to guide me through the process," Boyd said. "It was a critical piece of shaping the positive experience I'm having at KU."
Shane Lopez, assistant professor of pre-psychology and research in education, agreed that having a strong mentor relationship was vital during the graduate years.
"You have to get a mentor, someone who inspires you." Lopez
said. "You need to make mentoring relationships work."
Nathan Kolarik, Bellevue, Neb. graduate student, said the panel opened his eyes about professional expectations. Kolarik is studying to be a professor of religious studies.
"It's all going to be quite a bit of work," he said. "Certainly, I'm going to have to think more about teaching and its importance."
Diana Carlin, dean of the graduate school, said the workshop had been very successful and that, out of the 120 registered participants, 75 attended. Carlin was pleased with the response to keynote speaker Orlando Taylor, dean of the graduate school at Howard University in Washington, D.C.
"What pleased me was the attentiveness and enthusiasm that people had for Dr. Taylor's speech
this morning." she said.
"I hope, as a university, we can have dialogue about the program and participate in it." Carlin said.
Carlin said Taylor covered the "Preparing Future Faculty" program for which the KU workshop was named. The goal of the program, which has been adopted at 295 universities and colleges nationwide, is to provide guidance to graduate students through mentoring and direct, personal experience with diverse institutions.
Carlin added that the workshop was a worthwhile opportunity for graduate students to learn from experienced faculty.
"This is a time when graduate students can hear things they need to start asking questions about," she said.

Torture still widespread worldwide
This month, Amnesty International, a human rights organization, launched a global campaign against torture. Amnesty's new effort against torture promises to have a powerful impact on the struggle to eliminate this horrible kind of human suffering by combining Amnesty's Nobel peace Prize-winning human rights research with new technologies and rapid-response mechanisms to fight incidents of torture.
What exactly is torture, and how widespread is it? Simply put, torture is the intenential infliction of severe physical pain or mental suffering on a human being. Torture and ill-treatment are prohibited in all circumstances under international law. The United Nations Convention against Torture refers to be deliberate and purposeful infliction of
severe pain or suffering, whether physical or menal" on a person "by or at the instigation of or with he consent or acquiescence of a public official r other person acting in n official capacity."
1
Torture unfortunately till is widespread today. umnesty International as received reports of torture and ill-treatment by tate agents in more than 50 countries since 1997, and torture was widespread or persistent in more than 70 countries.
office officials are by far the most widespread perpetrators of torture and ill-treatment today. 'forture and ill-treatment was reportedly afflicted by military forces in more than 40 countries, by paramilitary forces in more than 0 countries and by intelligence services in more than 50 countries.
Kyle Browning guest columnist quinionkansan.com
Beating is the most common method of torure and ill-treatment today. Other common methods included electric shocks, suspension f the body, beating on the soles of the feet, unfocation, mock execution or death threat, prolonged solitary confinement, submersion in water, stubbing of cigarettes on the body, leep deprivation and sensory deprivation.
Torture is an odd thing politically. While virtually no government leader in the world could defend it, torture still is practiced in more than two-thirds of the world's countries. By contrast, the death penalty, a human rights violation that is far more controversial and an issue politicians often embrace willingly, has been abolished in more than half the nations in the world. So why is torture widespread when no acceptable person would seek to justify it?
One of the main reasons is that torture, unlike the death penalty, is usually carried out in secret and is, therefore, less well known to the general public. Also, suspected criminals often are the victims of torture, and when their plights do become known, they often are dismissed as getting what they deserve.
Amnesty International's campaign seeks to address all of these barriers to justice. It will seek to expose torture wherever it is found and place a special emphasis upon ending impunity. Through the creation of Fast Action tops Torture (FAST), Amnesty is using new information technology to stop torture.
Using the Internet and other rapid-response technology, Amnesty hopes to helpave thousands of individuals from the handsftorturers. Once or twice a month, withinours of verifying that someone is at risk of torture, Amnesty will send a FAST alert bye-mail or pager to members of the network.When a person gets the FAST alert, it takesonly a few minutes to go to the AmnestyWebite and sign prewritten action letters,and with a click of the mouse, e-mail it to the torurers and their bosses. To sign up, go towww.amnestususa.org/stontorture/fast.
These actions will have an impact primarily because of the volume of letters sent and umnesty's prestige and reputation for impartial human rights work. As a Turkish security guard old one of five political detainees just days after umnesty had mobilized on their behalf this past March, "Amnesty International is making a big ass." We won't do anything to you."
Of course, torture will not be eliminated by the time Amnesty is through, but it is safe to assume a few more of the guilty will have been punished, and a few more of the innocent will have been saved because of the combed efforts of many people like you.

Letters to the Editor
Constitutional amendment No.1 is better retirement fund
In 1859, the first Kansas Constitution was drafted, and the framers included a provision to prohibit the state from becoming a stockholder in any banking institution. At the time, this made sense. Founders were determined to protect citizens from an unstable banking industry. However, the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System has always been hampered by this outdated restriction.
Currently, the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System cannot allow its investment managers to buy shares of any of the profitable financial institutions traded in today's stock market. Because an entire industry is excluded from the investment pool, the system loses valuable opportunities, estimated in a single year to be as much as $45 million in lost potential revenue. Plus, it costs an extra $1 million annually in special management fees to keep the investments "bank-free."
Voters can change this outdated law by voting "yes" for the constitutional amendment on their Nov. 7 general election ballots. Constitutional Amendment No. 1 makes an exception to the restriction so the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System can own bank stocks as part of its portfolio. A "yes" vote on this amendment will save time and money for the system, along with the potential for improved investment returns. That means a better retirement fund for public employees and other teachers like me. Please vote "yes" Nov. 7. It just makes sense.
Retired teacher, Ozawkie
Columnist's death penalty perspective off the mark
Ben Voosen Embry's perspective on the death penalty in October 17's UDK is flawed, not the court's. Reform is needed, but not by banning the death penalty. Embry claims that it is unacceptable to kill an innocent person; it is. However, it's also unacceptable to allow someone to be released back into society after murdering another human.
Finally, Embry thinks that the states should not have the authority to take a life for a life taken. How about this? Put the murderer in a room handcuffed to a chair, then give the family of the victim the same weapon used by the murderer and see what happens. That would be justice.
Next, he brings up the practice of executing the mentally retarded. If a healthy dog continually bites people, it's put down. That being the case, if a human is incapable of realizing that killing another person is wrong, they aren't fit for society, just the same as the dog isn't.
Embry then says that executions cost more than it does to keep a murderer in for life. Where is he getting this information? If it comes down to cost, why not buy a bottle of Clorox for a couple of bucks and use that for lethal injections.
Erik Roesh Woodlands, Texas, senior
The prisons we have today are overcrowded as it is; that's why we have to let so many felons out before they complete their sentences. Resolution: Take all people found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt directly from the courtroom to the execution room.
Parking department should not increase unfair parking fees
An article in the UDK that addressed paying for the new parking garage has caused me to experience frightening flashbacks because of post-traumatic parking syndrome.
When I was undergated at USC, the parking department threatened to raise permit rates if the Los Angeles Raiders left town, taking with them the revenue generated by fans from the nearby Coliseum who parked on campus. The KU parking department says most of its revenue comes from permits, meters, parking for events and tickets (no wonder there's no warning issued for the first offense of not displaying your permit). Director Kearns stated that the department may use some of its capital improvements allotment rather than raise fines or rates to help pay for the new garage. But he also stated the parking board looked at the financial picture to determine if fines needed to be raised next year. Ouch!
We all benefit from more parking spaces as a result of the new garage and the subsequent removal of several meters from permit lots. However, I believe it is unfair to burden permit holders with higher rates and fines if revenue shortfalls related to events such as football games are experienced. I applaud Kearns for his thinking regarding the use of capital improvements money and implore him to avoid going to the chancellor for an increase in parking rates and fines.

Editorial
Sex crimes affect men and women
Students need to commit to working together to prevent sexual violence.
This week on campus as we recognize National Sexual Violence Awareness Week, it is important to acknowledge that the issues of rape, assault and incest affect both men and women. Sexual violence often is perceived as purely a woman's issue, but the truth is that no one is immune.
The fact is, everyone is connected in some way to sexual violence — in its frequency or through its effects and causes.
Sexual violence often also is perceived as an issue that men shouldn't get involved with. Women survivors often blame men for the pain of violence, but most men are not violent. Silence does nothing to end sexual crimes. Instead, it suggests that sexual violence is to be tolerated. Men are critical to prevention because men listen to other men.
This week's activities give everyone a chance to get involved. Six focus groups centered on men's issues are scheduled. A clothesline and poster projects will be up all week around campus. These projects are designed to give victims a voice and to bring awareness.
Thursday night, the Womyn Take Back the Night rally will be held in South Park. Men can participate in all activities during WTBN, except the survivor circle and march down Massachusetts Street. However, there is a separate circle for male survivors. You don't have to be a survivor to attend; you simply need to be a supporter of ending sexual violence. The intentions of Thursday evening, and the intentions of this entire week, are to promote and end to violence.
Sexual violence is indeed a gender issue — an issue that affects both genders. Society needs to stop supporting institutions, laws, attitudes and behaviors that promote the domination and abuse of others. It is in all of our interests to end sexual violence. It will take the concern and commitment of all of us acting together to succeed.

Ruling challenges free speech
Those who post libelous messages must be named
The Associated Press
MIAMI — In a ruling that challenges online anonymity, a Florida appeals court declared Oct. 16 that Internet service providers must divulge the identities of people who post defamatory messages on the Internet.
Critics of the ruling say it could have a chilling effect on free expression in Internet chat rooms.
The ruling comes against the efforts of the American Civil Liberties Union to protect the identity of eight individuals who posted anonymous missives on a Yahoo financial chat room about Erik Hvide, the former chief executive officer of Hvide Marine Inc. Hvide alleges that personal attacks against him also caused damage to the company's image.
Hvide's attorney Bruce Fischman hailed the ruling and said it would force Internet users to think a bit before they speak.
The ACLU had wanted the court first to rule on whether Hyde had
actually been defamed before identifying the defendants, named in court papers only as John Doe. If there was no showing of defamation, the ACLU reasoned, the critics should remain anonymous.
However, on Oct. 12, the court dissolved a stay freezing subpoenas for the records of Yahool Inc. and America Online Inc., whose service was used by one of the defendants in the defamation case.
Lauren Gelman, public policy director with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, is concerned that other courts could follow the lead of the 3rd District Court of Appeals in approving subpoenas.
"This kind of speech happens all the time in all kinds of chat rooms," Gelman said. "We don't want to see these subpoenas become regularly used to cause people to self-censor themselves."
Both Internet companies took a back seat if the lawsuit, saying they would do whatever the judges said.
Lyrissa Lidsky, who argued the ACLU's case, called the decision a surprise and a setback.
Nevertheless, she said it was not a defeat for all the other John Does fighting Internet-related subpoenas because the court did not explain its legal reasoning.
“This kind of speech happens all the time in all kinds of chat rooms. We don't want to see these subpoenas become regularly used to cause people to self- censor themselves." Lauren Gelman Electronic Frontier Foundation
An appeal is being explored. "The court had the potential to set an important precedent about the right to speak anonymously on the Internet," Lidsky said. "The courts are eventually going to have to come to grips with this issue and decide how broad free speech rights are in cvberspace."
The issue is largely untested in the nation's courts.
the nation's courts. A Virginia federal judge sided with a government subpoena request in a criminal case, but civil suits in California and Virginia have not settled the subpoena questions involving anonymous Internet users.
There are those who shy away from challenges. And then there are those who travel 9,000 miles looking for them.

Students say University took free speech rights
Continued from page 1A
"We're not trying to erase anyone's message; we haven't done anything intentional," Rait said. "We did not go out on campus to deliberately erase any message."
But Randolph said the University was deliberately censoring her right to freedom of speech.
"I think it says that we're supposed to be quiet just about who we are and that the school is not going to respect people's right to express themselves," she said.
Though no official apology was issued to the group by either Pearse, Shulenburger or Facilities Operations, Pearse said he did not want to hurt anyone's feelings and would be happy to meet with the students to discuss the differing viewpoints.
However, Tara Wolfe, Lawrence senior and co-author of the letter, said the group was willing to keep fighting for an apology.

Nearly 7,000 college students who applied for financial aid this fall are finding past drug convictions returning to haunt them.
Drug convictions cost students aid
The Associated Press
The students are being told they are ineligible for some or all federal financial aid because of a new law. Under the law, which took effect with the 2000-01 academic year, students with drug-related convictions can be ruled ineligible for federal grants or loans.
Of the 8.6 million applications processed through Oct.15,1,311 applicants have been ruled ineligible,and an
additional 5,617 must complete a waiting period before they become eligible, said Karen Freeman, a representative for the Education Department.
The total of the two groups is less than 1 percent of those who applied.
Students can lose one year of federal aid eligibility for a first conviction on a drugpossession charge and two years for a second conviction. They can be suspended indefinitely for a third conviction.
About 790,000 applicants initially failed to answer the question of whether they had been convicted of using drugs when they filled out their student aid applications. But the Education Department
contacted many of those students, and the number of those who have not yet answered now is down to 275,000.
Department officials allowed college and university administrators to award aid this year to those who left the question blank, but warned those students to alert the department of any drug convictions or risk penalties for lying on their forms.
Kristi Ringor, a representative for the U.S. Students Association in Washington, said her organization fought the policy.
"It denies access to education to those who need it most," she said. "It is not a sound anti-drug policy."

Bettys face tough fall schedule
Women's Ultimate Frisbee Team seeks seasoned opponents
By Michael Sudhalter Kansas sportswriter sports@kansas.com
The Bettys decided to throw themselves into the fire during the fall season of ultimate frisbee.
To improve their team, the Kansas Women's Ultimate Frisbee Team, commonly known as the Bettys, have scheduled older, top-notch club teams in the Kansas City area. The Bettys will compete exclusively against collegiate teams during the spring season.
While the team was not victorious in any of its contests against their noncollegiate opponents, many of the players came through the experience with a positive attitude.
"We played some of the best women's teams," said Olivia Stockman, St. Louis senior. "And we
have learned a lot from them."
The team's positive attitude could explain why women who join the Ultimate Frisbee Club stick with it.
Laura Ismert, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said she enjoyed the camaraderie and enjoyment of being a member of the Bettys.
"The road trips are really fun," Ismert said. "And we get experience by going against good teams."
Team captain Ale Arbors, Olathe senior who is competing on the Bettys for the third year, said she also enjoyed the team spirit of Ultimate Frisbee.
A former cross country runner at Johnson County Community College, Arbors never played a team sport before joining the Betts.
"I love the team aspect of the sport," said Arbors, who plans to compete with a club team in the Kansas City area after graduation.
Arbors said that team members had shown more commitment this year.
"Our numbers are about the same, but now we have 14 or 15 girls showing up to every practice," Arbors said.

Kansas' new mantra pays dividends
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
By Jason Franchuk
The 2000 Jayhawks have rolled back the clock to '94 - 1894, that is—the last time Kansas played a six-game schedule like the one it is in the midst of now.
Long before luxury suites, artificial turf and the lure of bigmoney bowl games, there was a Kansas football team that could relate to this year's group.
This year, of course, Kansas has 11 games slated on its schedule, but coach Terry Allen implemented the six-game mantra after the Jayhawks started the season 23. With six games remaining, in need of four more wins to reach the postseason, Allen thought a change was needed. Kansas, 43,
has won its last two games — at Missouri and against Colorado — since starting over.
"It was something we felt we had to do in order to turn the season around," Allen said.
So Kansas toughened up. It practiced more. No longer have the Jayhawks gone through the motions. You could have sworn they were going to eliminate water breaks from practice and all take salt tablets instead.
They went old-school.
Saturday's 23-15 win against Colorado was a perfect example. Players who were expected to fill one role have used other opportunities to help out.
Running back David Winbush continued playing, even when he suffered from stomach distress because of a pain reliever he

could maintain formations that require a bulky blocker.

took.
Defensive back Jamarel Bryant has struggled to find time in Kansas' vastly improved secondary this year, but the junior college transfer blocked a Colorado extra-point attempt that held Colorado's lead to six points late in the first quarter.
Senior quarterback Dylan Smith, who said he did not think he was throwing the ball well, basically ignored the forward pass in the second half. Smith instead used his mobility to gain 84 yards rushing, throwing for only 152.
"I felt like we played for the first time a complete football game," Allen said. "It is always nice to win on homecoming and to be part of two consecutive wins. We
are getting it going and heading back in the right direction."
Flashing back to 106 years ago, the 1894 Jayhawks and coach Hector Cowan started with a win and a tie, before finishing 2-3-1. There are a couple of similarities between that group and this year's Kansas team.
Both teams defeated Missouri.
In 1894, it was in the season finale.
Ten days ago, it marked the beginning of Kansas' new season.
The old Jayhawks lost at Nebraska. 12-6. After Saturday's 1 p.m. game against Texas Tech, Kansas will prepare for its next opponent — Nebraska.
More than a century later, Cowan's legacy continues, and the six-game schedule lives on.

Heavily recruited forward chooses Stanford
Childress says school's proximity to his family influenced his decision

After months of flirting with the Kansas Jayhawks, Josh Childress finally decided yesterday that there was no place like home.

than Kansas.
"It was a really difficult decision," Childress told Foxsports.com. "It wasn't one particular thing that swayed my decision. I just had a gut feeling that Stanford was the best place for me."
Childress averaged 22 points per game last season for Mayfair High. He said the decision to turn down the Jayhawks proved to be a difficult one, especially because of Kansas coach Roy Williams.
"I just wanted to take as much time as I needed to make the right decision," Childress said. "I'm the one who's going to be there for the next four years, and I needed to make the right choice."
"It was hard to turn down Kansas."
Chidress said. "Coach Williams is a

Childress' commitment to Stanford leaves the Kansas recruiting class in disarray. With the commitment of recruit Chuck Hayes to Kentucky, the Jayhawks are left scrambling for a scoring forward.

could examine some other options that have presented themselves.
One of those options is Keith Langford, a 6-foot-4 guard/forward from Crowley, Texas. Langford committed to Mississippi in June but informed the Rebels' coaches last week that he would not honor that commitment.
Now, Langford will decide between Kansas, Oklahoma and Baylor — all schools that recruited him before his commitment to the Rebels. Fastbreak Recruiting reported yesterday that Langford would make a visit to Kansas Friday, Nov. 3.
Larry House — a 6-foot-4 forward from Colby Community College — also visited Kansas at the beginning of October, but the Jayhawks didn't make him a scholarship offer.

Team won't find its way to any bowl this season
I don't exactly subscribe to this new theory that calling the last six games of the season "a new season" is going to get the Kansas football team into a bowl game.
Seem unbelievable? OK, maybe, but not as unbelievable as the 'Hawks winning two or three of their next four and finding themselves in a bowl game.
And this coming from the person who thinks the Dallas Cowboys are going to finish 12-4, cruising to a Super Bowl victory in what is probably quarterback Troy Alkman's last season.
We can automatically count out the Nebraska game. It'll take more than a new season, even more than a new decade, to beat the Cornhuskers in Lincoln.
So that leaves our inspired football team with the challenge of beating two of three teams: Texas Tech, Texas and Iowa State.
Two weeks ago, Jayhawk hopes rose in unison as Nebraska pummed Texas Tech in Lubbock. However, any thoughts that these dejected Red Raiders would become a walk in the park were quickly dismissed when they lost to Kansas State by only five points in Manhattan.
When Kansas can do that, then I'll be impressed.
The Jayhawks are still flying from beating Colorado, the most exhilarating win of this season's roller-coaster ride, but the Texas Tech game isn't one I'd put a lot of money on.
As if the Texas Tech game won't be bad enough, after the Jayhawks return from a certain horrible loss to Nebraska, they must face Texas, a team that has had its ups and downs but just defeated Missouri 46-12.
Major Applewhite, who set a school record for touchdown passes against Missouri, will give the Kansas defense more fits than Colorado's inexperienced Craig Ochs, and that's before the defenders factor in running back Hodges Mitchell, who added 151 rushing yards in the Missouri drubbing.
However, an improved attitude cannot eliminate all the mistakes that have shown to be a problem in big games.
Now, I do admire what coach Terry Allen has done with the team. With a few simple mind games, Allen has transformed a beaglequered 2-3 team into an enthusiastic 4-3 group that looks like a team in the bowl hunt. The atmosphere at Memorial Stadium is different, and the attitude of these players alone has won them ball-games.
For the final game of the season, the Jayhawks take to the road (immediately all fans start groaning at just the thought of this football team on the road) to face Iowa State. The Cyclones' only losses have come to conference powerhouses Nebraska and Texas A&M. Factor in Kansas road success, and you have yourself another loss.
Just calling the final six games a separate season from the first six does not change the fact that this is the same team that had so many humiliating special teams errors against Southern Methodist and turned the ball over seven times against Oklahoma.
I would love to see the Kansas football team prove me wrong and make a Bowl appearance before I graduate.
Maybe they will hang this column in the locker room, and the words printed in it, not just the gorgeous mug shot, will provide them with inspiration to demolish at least two of their next opponents.
Unfortunately, I just don't think it's going to happen.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 24). What you learn through the grapevine gives you the advantage. Make networking a fine art and succeed brilliantly. Your friends give you a shove in the right direction in October. Follow through in November. Private information leads to a treasure in December. Get what you've always wanted for your home in February. Heed a partner's old-fashioned suggestion in May. Use your wits to add to your security in June. A foreigner's compassion inspires you in July, and your friends help you with a worthy project in September. Here's permission to hide out and rest next October.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
Today you're liable to be activated, motivated and jet-propelled. A job that recently seemed frustrating could suddenly make sense — partly because you're getting better at it. A friend's support helps, too.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
10:45 am 26 May 2023 — Tuesday 10:45 am
Your common sense is in high demand. Others need it more than you do, so be generous. You can afford to; you have plenty. What you miss, your partner can provide. The two of you are the pragmatic duel! Engineers and builders of castles in the air!
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
Romance could be in your near future, maybe even tonight — or today. Don't let it interfere with work, however. Don't let a person who loves to collect bargaining chips find out about it, either. Unless it's all on the up and up, of course.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
Having people over to your house soon? Need to get the place whipped into shape, fast? You'd help your friend in a pinch, and that same person will help you. Stop trying to do everything, OK? Share.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
It's time for you to buy yourself a new toy. It isn't educational, it's money well-spent. You won't necessarily get the best education in school. You might learn more at home. Instead of TV, how about reading tonight?
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7.
Work, money, responsibility — they're all linked together. You're up to the challenge. A distant friend could be a big help. This person's got more experience, so ask for coaching when you need it. Then, climb up that ladder to success.
You're getting stronger and more confident. That's partially because you've been doing your homework. Well, you just got luckier, too. Keep a close eye on your finances. Be stingy. It's OK. It's a good skill to acquire.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
You're a natural collector of information. You could find out a lot more soon. It won't take much digging. Ask a few leading questions: A couple of people would love to tell you more than you want to know.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is an 8.
You can gain a lot from friends. If you're not playing on a team, maybe you should be for fun, games and new ideas. You might find just the person you've been looking for to fill a special need. A keeper.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 7.
K
Caprorn (Dec. 25, 1979) — Today is 6/7.
An opportunity for advancement could open up soon. You could do the work you love and make the paycheck of your dreams. You're not going to find it if you don't look, though. Start by asking a person who knows a lot.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.
What you're looking for is available at a price you can afford. You just need to look a little further away. You might even find a great deal on a travel package. Use your skills and imagination — and anything is possible.
男 女
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
A distant friend may invite you to visit, but it's too early yet. You can start planning, saving and learning, however. A bit of a joint this weekend looks possible, too — sort of a trial run.

The initial hearing was postponed until Tuesday, Nov. 7. Roy remained free on $750 bail and left by a side door without comment. His wife was absent.

TEMPE, Ariz. — Vince Tobin, who coached Arizona to its first playoff victory in 51 years two seasons ago, was fired yesterday — a day after the Cardinals lost to the Dallas Cowboys, 48-7.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jury selection began yesterday in the murder trial of ex-NFL player Rae Carruth, accused of masterminding the shooting death of his pregnant girlfriend to avoid paying child support.
By midafternoon, prosecutors had questioned 11 potential jurors about their views on the death penalty and dismissed one man who said his religious beliefs would prevent him from supporting a death sentence in any case. If convicted of first-degree murder, Carruth could be sentenced to death.
Much of the morning was taken up with defense motions.
As the session began, prosecutors added the names of co-defendants Michael Eugene Kennedy and Stanley Drew "Boss" Abraham as possible witnesses.
Their main witness is expected to be Carrith's third co-defendant, Van Brett Watkins, whose name already was on the witness list. Watkins, the admitted trigerman, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and agreed to testify against Carrith.
Defense attorneys David Rudolf and Chris Fialko asked that all three co-defendants be moved to another county jail where they would not have access to Court TV, which will televise the trial.
Superior Court Judge Charles Lamm denied the motion but asked a sheriff's deputy to determine if the three can be denied access to Court TV. Witnesses often are barred from attending trials before taking the stand in order to make sure other people's testimony doesn't influence them.
Lamm also denied two other defense motions: one to have the court reporter list the race of potential jurors and one not to require the jurors to say they could hand down a death sentence if appropriate. The defense said Carruth should face no more than a life sentence because that's the worst Watkins faces.
Gravely wounded, Adams told the 911 operator that she had been shot several times by someone who fired at her from another car. She said her boyfriend, Carruth, was sitting in his Ford Expedition in front of her car when somebody pulled up beside her and shot her. Moaning in pain, she said, "I think he did it. I don't know what to think."
Carruth, 28, once a wide receiver for the Carolina Panthers, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Cherica Adams, 24. She was seven months pregnant with his child when she was gunned down Nov. 16 as she sat in her car and died a month later. The baby boy, named Chancellor, survived.
Prosecutors contend Carruth,
whose football career was troubled by injuries, masterminded the hit because he didn't want to pay child support. From the outset, Carruth has maintained his innocence, claiming he was miles away from the shooting and had nothing to do with its planning. He has been jailed without bond since December.
Watkins was to testify that Carruth paid him $5,000 to kill Adams. Last Wednesday, Carruth's attorneys told a motion claiming Watkins told another version of the shooting to a jail guard — that he shot Adams when she made an obscene gesture at him, not because Carruth paid to have her killed.
The defense also claims Adams was shot just hours after Carruth refused to finance a drug deal involving Watkins and another man charged in Adams' murder.
"She looked over at the car and seen us, she flipped me off. ... I lost it. I just started shooting," Watkins is quoted as saying in handwritten notes from a Mecklenburg County sheriff's deputy that were included in the filing.
"It was Rae's fault," the deputy recalled Watkins saying. "If he had just given us the money, none of this would have happened."
No trial dates have been scheduled for co-defendants Kennedy, 25, and Abraham, 19, who also could face the death penalty.

Colorado basketball roster shrinking
By Chris Wristen

sportskanson.com
Kansas sportswriter
Much like its roster, the Colorado men's basketball team has become much smaller.
The Buffaloes' roster is only 11 men deep but will be reduced to 10 for at least a month. The team's lone center, sophomore Richard Fox, fractured his left hand during a team drill.
Coach Ricardo Patton said Fox would miss the next four to six
weeks.
"Richard will be able to continue to train with the team," Brager said in a statement. "He will need to avoid contact during drills, but he can still participate in running and other team exercises."
However, team doctor Mike Brager said Fox would not be completely out of action.
Fox is expected to return by mid-November, Brager said.
Patton said changes would have to be made to cope with Fox's injury and Renfroe's absence.

Fox said he was frustrated with the early season setback.
force the Buffs to turn to senior forward Jamahl Mosley and sophomore forward Stephane Pelle to fill the gap inside. Senior forward Ernest Renfro, 6-foot-7, still is playing football for Colorado but also will help carry the load once he joins the team.

"I'm certainly disappointed," Fox said. "I had high expectations for myself during the preseason and felt like I had had four good practices up to this point. But by no means is this a devastating injury. I'll be back at practice and should be ready for the regular season."
The 6-foot11 Fox is the only roster player taller than 6-foot8. That will

Stockman said the team had set a spring season goal of going to nationals with this year's mix of rookies and veterans.
"We have a bunch of rookies who are really great," Stockman said. "I think we have a good chance at nationals."
"When I joined the team, I learned that there are actual playing positions and strategies to Ultimate Frisbee." Horner said.

"Those are not tobacco-chewing, pot-bellied Klansmen from the Deep South," he said. "You're talking about college-educated, clever people."
"I think it's important that parents know so they can take some steps to make sure their kids don't get sucked up in this stuff," Dees said.
Just as Rotary Clubs are finding that people are less willing to meet in groups these days, so is the Ku Klux Klan, Dees said. But with the Web, the Klan is able to create a virtual organization.
HBO is developing a cyberspace campaign, "Hate Hurts," that will present personal experiences about the impact of hate on people's lives.
These Web sites help leaders of the movement recruit young, educated members, he said.
NEW YORK — Check your stereotypes at the door. The best place to find purveyors of racial hate isn't in the back room of some service station in Alabama or Mississippi.
Starting from scratch five years ago, there now are between 300 and 500 racial hate Web sites operating, Dees said.
"The film is depressing in the sense that it really paints a gloomy picture of what's out there on the Web," said Morris Dees, co-founder of the Southern Poverty Law Center. "But I think that's necessary to do something about it." Dees, whose organization has gone to court in an effort to bankrupt White supremacist organizations, was contacted by filmmakers to help provide information on hate groups. He grew so involved he became the film's narrator.
The documentary explores an online racist subculture, tracing its members to many of the notorious acts of domestic terrorism during the past decade.
Documentary highlights Web hate-group sites
It's on the Internet, a fact outlined with chilling dispassion on the new HBO documentary, Hate.com: Extremists on the Internet. It premiered at 9 last night.

Players may face charges soon as inquiry wraps up
By Lauren Brandenburg and Katie Hollar writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writers
Charges may be filed by the end of the week against the two football players accused of sexually assaulting a female soccer player in February, said Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County district attorney.
Charges were originally expected by the end of August, but Lawrence police said the process had been slowed when students left town for the summer. Det. M.T. Brown said the investigation continued to take more time after school started because several interviews still had to be completed, which required working with several attorneys.
Brown also said that not all the students involved in the case came back for the school year.
"Witnesses who were available last year were not in the city this semester." Brown said.
The police forwarded the reports to Tonkovich late Monday afternoon.
"We have received the reports, and we are reviewing them," Tonkovich said. "There are a couple other interviews the officers still want to conduct. However, I think we will be able to make our decision before the end of the week."
The victim said she was glad to have the police investigation finished.
"I've been hearing 'We're about
done' since May," she said. "Now I'll just have to wait and see what happens."
She will meet with Tonkovik today. She said she didn't know what charges to expect, but she said she would definitely testify in court.
"I wouldn't take it this far otherwise," she said.
The assault occurred on Feb. 26 as the victim was leaving the Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St. The victim reported that two football players she knew fondled, spanked and taunted her.
The victim first reported the assault to her soccer coach, and she agreed to take the matter up with football coach Terry Allen instead of going to the police.
When the victim found out that Allen had required the players to run extra sprints at practice as punishment, she went to Bob Frederick, athletics director. By now, it was April 25.
The victim gave a statement to police on April 26.
Meanwhile, one of the players who is accused continues to play for the football team. Under the football team's discipline policy, he is one step from suspension from the team. His status is pending the results of the Lawrence Police Department's investigation.
The other player accused in the incident was dismissed from the University of Kansas for poor grades and plays football at Garden City Community College.
Speaker discusses rock 'n' roll history

Kansan staff writer
Julian Bond, a professor, civil rights activist and veteran of the Georgia General Assembly, showed he could still rock to rhythm and blues last night at the Lied Center.
Bond, chairman of the Board of Directors for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, spoke to nearly 2,000 people about the history of rock and roll and its influence on American history.
His speech, "Crossing the Color Line: From Rhythm and Blues to Rock and Roll," was part of the 2000 Horwitz Lecture Series and was sponsored by the Hall Center for the Humanities.
"Almost all of America is about race, but this is of particular interest," Bond said before quoting Martin Luther King, Jr. and John F. Kennedy, both of whom condemned rock and roll for corrupting America's youth.
He showed a slide of a poster published by the Citizens Council of Greater New Orleans, Inc.
For suburban Caucasian teenagers influenced by the culture of minorities, the new music provided a way to reject their parents' values. He said it offered "an option to surrender to adult norms."
"Notice!" it read. "Stop. Help Save the Youth of America. Don't Buy Negro Records."
But Bond said despite rock 'n' roll's African-American roots and sexually suggestive lyrics, it was a craze the older generation could not stop.
Bond played some tunes ranging from original rhythm and blues songs to the more recognized "Hound Dog" by Elvis Presley. He invited audience members to tap their feet, snap their fingers or dance in the aisles.
Bond, who was born in 1840, removed his glasses while he played song clips, swaying to the beat of the music he grew up with.
"Musical history and the musical present is filled with all kinds of complaints," he said.
Then he pushed the play button for the song "Earth Angel," calling it blue light music.
Julian Bond, civil rights activist and chairman of the Board of Directors for the NAACP, takes off his glasses and sways to the song "60-Minute Man." Bond spoke about rock 'n' roll last night at the Lied Center. Photo by Craig Bennett/KANSAN
"Your family's away," he said. "You go down to the basement, put a blue light bulb in there, invite some friends over ..."
The audience laughed as one artist sang, "Rock and roll all night, I'm a 60-minute man."
"It incorporated a lot of different kinds of music," said Cylus Scarbough, Topeka sophomore. "He blended race with music and how each affected America, and I thought it was nice."
The speech was a hit with audience members.

City bus system nears debut

A bus transfer station located on North Street between Massachusetts and Vermont streets was approved last night by city commissioners. The new station will serve as the hub of the Lawrence Transit System. Photo by Thad Allender/KANSAN
The transfer station would serve as the hub of the Lawrence Transit System and will be located on Ninth Street between Massachusetts and Vermont streets, near the location of the KU on Wheels downtown bus stop.
A mid-December start for the new Lawrence bus system seems possible after the City Commission gave a green light to the location of a downtown transfer station at last night's meeting.
After the removal of six parking spaces on the block, the area will provide enough room for three to four buses at one time, necessitating a staggered system in which the buses would arrive in waves, 20 minutes apart.
The Public Transit Advisory Committee also debated a pulse system in which all seven routes through downtown would arrive at the same time. Karin Rexroad, public transit administrator, said that unless off-street land was purchased, a staggered system would have to be used.
Holly Krebs, a committee member and KU on Wheels transportation coordinator, said she opposed the idea of a staggered system and instead pushed for a pulse system where no one would have to wait.
"Twenty minutes is too long to ask people to wait," she said. "I think it's our responsibility to make this as convenient as possible for people to use."
The bus service is scheduled to begin in mid-December with leased buses. City-owned buses

U.S. troops on alert in Persian Gulf
By Lori O'Toole
writer@kansan.com
Kansan wire editor
U. S. military troops tend to become too complacent in the usual security level and they need to consider how life would be in a higher state of alert, said Col Kevin McNellis, commander of the University of Kansas Air Force ROTC.
The professor of aerospace studies spoke to about 55 Air Force ROTC students yesterday at Wescoe Hall during a weekly leadership laboratory.
The laboratory includes discussion of current events, and this week the students learned more about the U.S. military's levels of security alert.
The topic is important because the Pentagon announced yesterday that American forces in two small Persian Gulf states, Bahrain and Qatar, and in Turkey are on the "Delta" state of alert because of specific new indications of terrorist threats.
The U.S. military employs four levels of security alert above the "normal" threat condition. They are "Alpha," "Bravo," "Charlie" and "Delta." Delta is the highest level of security alert and signifies immediate threat.
In Washington, Pentagon representative Craig Quigley said the threat condition in Bahrain and
Saudi Arabia Bahrain Qatar
Qatar was raised to "Delta" this past weekend.
quail was raised to Delta this past weekend.
He said the threat condition for U.S. forces at Incirlik Air Base in southern Turkey was elevated more than a week ago to "Charlie" level, the second-highest threat condition. Incirlik is the hub for American and British warplanes enforcing a "no fly" zone over northern Iraq.
There are about 1,100 U.S. military personnel in Bahrain and fewer than 50 U.S. troops in Qatar. Bahrain is the base for the Navy's 5th Fleet, which is one of the most important American military
Quigley said the decision to raise alert levels was based on intelligence reports of "multiple threats" from "multiple sources." He said the threats were specific, but the credibility of the sources was unknown.

contingents in the Gulf.
U. S. troops in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were not included in the heightened state of alert, Quilev said.
McNellis said the heightened state of alert did not directly affect KU ROTC students.
However, Mike Daigh, Air Force ROTC wing commander, said it was important for ROTC students to be aware of overseas military events.
"We're not commissioned yet, we're not in active duty yet," said Daigh, a Wichita senior, who attended the leadership lab. "For us as cadets, it's mainly important from the standpoint to appreciate what the men and women in uniform are doing."
"In the end, that's the team and that's the force that we'll be a part of. You can't help but think, 'I could be doing that.'"

Four KU students were given awards in
Dennis Moore, Democratic representative for Kansas' third district, has obtained federal funds for the University of Kansas' continued development of remote sensing technology.
— Kansan staff report
The awards were for stories published in the Kansan last year.
a national reporting competition Monday, Lori O'Toole, Wichita senior, was a runnerup in the Roy W. Howard National Reporting Competition awards ceremony held at the University of Indiana in Bloomington, Ind. Emily Hughey, Overland Park senior; Clay McCuslion, El Dorado senior; and Nathan Willis, Sterling senior, won honorable mentions.
The funds were granted, but President Clinton has until Oct. 31, to sign the bill.
Twelve students total received awards and scholarships from the Scripps-Howard foundation. The University of Kansas had the most students receive awards of any university.
The $1 million in funds would be directed to the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Program, which was established in 1972 by NASA and the state to conduct research on better use of data from satellite sensing systems.
Marc Wilson, Moore's press secretary, said the congressman secured the funds with not only the University in mind, but all of Kansas.
"This particular department does research for use to not only the academic community, but farmers and business owners across the state," Wilson said.

Wife may take place of Carnahan in race
NATION
— Lauren Brandenburg
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — A movement is under way among Missouri Democrats to install Gov. Mel Camahan's widow in the Senate seat he was seeking.
The appointment couldn't happen unless Missourians choose Mel Carnahan instead of incumbent Republican John. John Ashcroft.
Missouri's new governor, Democrat Roger Wilson, said yesterday he offered the Senate seat to Camarah's widow, Jean, if Miel Camarah receives more votes than Ashcroft Tuesday, Nov. 7.
The Carnahan-Ashroft race had been a statistical tie before an Oct. 16 plane crash that killed the governor, his son and a campaign aide.
Jean Camahan didn't immediately accept, but Wilson's spokesman said she'd consider the offer.
By then, it was legally too late to remove Mel Carnahan's name from the ballot.
Wilson acknowledged he was asking voters to take the strange step of voting for a dead man on Election Day.
Republican leaders said Wilson's announcement that he intended to offer the appointment to Jean Carnahan could be illegal under federal law that bars pledges of appointments to win votes in congressional races. They said a legal challenge was possible.
Jean Carnahan, 66, has never run for or held elected office.
Arizona teen surrenders after holding hostages
GLENDALE, Ariz. — An armed teenager briefly held a classroom full of children and a teacher hostage yesterday at his former elementary school before surrendering to authorities. No one was injured.
The former student at Pioneer Elementary School gave up after talking with members of a police SWAT team, police representative Matt Brown said. The standoff in the eighth-grade classroom lasted about an hour.
"He came here with a purpose, but thank goodness he didn't carry it out," Brown said.
Brown said the portable classroom was full when the student walked in with a 9mm handgun, but he gradually let students go. There were still several people in the room at the time the student surrendered.
He did not elaborate beyond saying the boy discussed the reason for his actions with authorities.
The school has classes for kindergarten through eighth grades, and the children involved were about 13 or 14 years old. Brown said.

Professor threatened with removal
University upset about unapproved guest lecturer
By Leita Schultes
By Leta Schutts
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ray Pierotti said he received a letter from the University yesterday that questioned his ability to teach his class and threatened his removal from the department.
The letter, sent by the ecology and evolutionary biology department, stemmed from Pierotti's use of an unapproved guest lecturer to teach his Biology 414 class while he recovered from eye surgery.
Pierotti, associate professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, had two surgeries in two weeks on a detached retina in his eye that was causing dizziness and unclear vision. Although Pierotti has attended his classes,
his wife, Cynthia Annett, has done much of the lecturing.
Annett taught Biology 414 while she was a faculty member at the University. However, she was denied tenure in 1999, and she and Pierotti sued the University for racial and sexual discrimination.
The University won the lawsuit last spring, but Annett's return to a KU lecture hall has led to concern and investigation.
Pierotti said the University's keen interest in his class and the letter he received today were retaliation against the lawsuit.
The letter was signed by Thomas Taylor, chairman of the ecology and evolutionary biology department. He could not be reached for comment.
"He is claiming that I am unable to meet my classes and carry out my academic responsibilities, and that's not true," Pierotti said.
The letter also made a few demands.
"He wants me to provide him with a copy of my syllabus, and
"He is claiming that I am unable to meet my classes and carry out my academic responsibilities, and that's
not true."

he wants me to inform him of any changes in my class," Pierotti said.
The letter did not request any meeting between Pierotti and the department or Taylor.
"He doesn't want to meet with me," Pierotti said. "Dr. Taylor and I don't normally speak to one another because I regard him as a man without honor."
John O'Brien, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology and former chair of the department, did not comment on Taylor. He said that Annett was qualified and that he disagreed
"My reaction is that she has taught it in the past," he said. "I see no reason why she should not be allowed to do it."
with KU's actions.
O'Brien said he had used Annett as a guest lecturer for some of his classes.
"Some of the lectures she was giving last week she gave for my class when I was in town because she's so good at it," he said.
the faculty handbook states that professors must communicate arrangements with the dean or chairperson of the department and that those arrangements are subject to approval.
But O'Brien said that policy was commonly overlooked.
"I've never followed it," he said.
"When I've needed somebody, I've just asked somebody. And I believe I'm not alone in that."
Last night, Pierotti said he was writing a response to Taylor's letter. He said his response would make it clear to the University that he was not intimidated.
"I will have guest lecturers," Pierotti said. "I'm going to con-

Editorial board: Float had no right in parade
Parade organizers had right to exclude float
S
Stephenson Scholarship Hall's contribution to this year's fleet of homecoming floats was admittedly created to "challenge people's notions of obscenity." It unfortunately had the desired effect.
A car with a giant penis on the rear in no way reflects the tradition of homecoming but did appear obscene to many. The whole idea behind the floats is to bring the alumni home and celebrate the University with creativity. Unless the float had somehow passed homecoming guidelines (1. Fit "Passport to the world" theme, and 2. Make a positive impact on the University), the lewd content should not have been allowed in the parade.
If the Float of Doom has any positive impact, what could it be? The float was created to be perceived as obscene. Some may say that what is offensive to one person is not necessarily offensive to another. But the key argument is what is offensive to Student Union Activities, which organized the parade.
The commitment to freedom of imagination and expression is deeply embedded in our national psyche, but stressed by the First Amendment and supported by a long line of Supreme Court decisions. It is perhaps the most fundamental right in a democratic society.
But freedom of speech does have limits. No one has the right to give away military secrets or to threaten the life of the president or to shout over a bullhorn in the middle of the night. We're not free to lie under oath or to yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater. The misuse of free speech to "create a clear and present danger," as Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes put it, may be punished by the government.
The Supreme Court formulated guidelines for determining obscene material in Miller v. California. The Court created the "local community standards" test to determine obscenity based on whether the work in question was patently offensive and had no redeeming social, scientific or literary value. Moreover, the Supreme Court has also ruled that parade organizers are free to exclude groups they don't want from a parade.
Although the notion of obscenity that is currently held by the collective public is tenuous, the homecoming parade is an immature place to test the boundaries of obescence. Clearly, there are a variety of ways to test the limits of obscenity in
The Float of Doom directly contradicted the purposes of the homecoming parade that SUA set out. SUA was well

urging parade organizers to ban the float, and second, should the float have been admitted to the parade?
After submitting our application for the parade, we were told that SUA would inspect our float at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, the day before the parade. At approximately 3:30 p.m., a message was left on our answering machine notifying us that Wamelink told SUA that Stephenson Hall was not to have a float in the parade.
We called SUA and asked if we could enter as "members of the Lawrence community" (an option on the
original application) but were denied, with the only explanation being that to do that, we would've had to register the Friday before. That option exhausted, we called Wamelink, who, after lengthy discussion, said that she had been acting as our "adviser" and had only "advised" us not to make the float, on the grounds that not all of Stephenson had agreed to it.
This apparently new requirement for entrance into the parade (it hadn't been on any of the application materials) was enforced only on us, and more importantly, constituted a de facto ban, because by the time she'd admitted that she was powerless to stop our float. SUA had crossed us off its list and was busy doing the other inspections. The result is that Wamelink kept our float from entering the parade despite the fact that she had no formal or traditional tie to SUA or to the parade.
The second question is really the discussion we wanted to provoke by making the float: Should SUA allow floats that are in poor taste into the homecoming parade?
The whole thing was a test of our concept of obscenity. We have the right to make a float like that; just ask the KU Public Safety Office. They told us that they couldn't arrest us for a float such as the one we had planned.
That said, it was and is SUA's parade, and it can keep us out if it wants to. However, SUA has been willing, in the past, to challenge boundaries. In the past year, it has sponsored showings of Orgazmo, Conspirators of Passion, and General Chaos Uncensored, all of which are arguably more risqué than our float.
The point is that obscenity is completely subjective; even the Supreme Court ultimately says that it only knows it when it sees it. There is no reason for anyone to be offended by our float or by any other expression.
The only solution to the issue is for everyone to step back and think critically about everything he or she is presented with.

Hard lesson on accuracy teaches Kansan reporters
Let's give it up for Stephenson Scholarship Hall. They pulled one over on us last week.
But you probably won't see Wilbur Nether, that is unless you go to the fourth floor of Stephenson, where he lives. Good luck finding a fourth floor.
Wilbur Nether was a source in Thursday's story about scholarship hall rate increases.
From what I've heard, he subscribes but
doesn't pay for subscriptions to magazines and CD clubs, which the rest of Stephenson's residents enjoys.
If you haven't figured it out, this guy doesn't exist — except in the folklore of the scholarship halls and, unfortunately, in Thursday's Kansan.
(1)
How exactly did all of this happen? For starters, the student who was interviewed lied about his name. We don't routinely run extensive background checks on sources, unless they're running for a public office, such as Student
Senate, or if it's a story with potential controversy. Who would expect a student to give a false name, especially for a story about the cost of student housing?
Erin R.
Barcomb

readerimp@kansas.com
Although I don't think it's necessary to run every source's name through public records, searching for criminal charges, legal name changes and the like, maybe we are a little too trusting sometimes.
And maybe we don't question enough. We double check names in the student directory,
but not all students are listed there. For those who aren't, we usually assume the reporter got it right.
But sometimes that doesn't happen. Take a look in the student phone book. You won't find a listing for Wilbur Nether. We certainly didn't.
Although we couldn't find any compelling evidence that he exists, we made assumptions and trusted other people. Trust isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it can be when the issue of students trusting what they read in the Kansan is at stake.
The time constraints of putting out a daily paper have an effect, too. Working on deadline doesn't always allow us the time we would like to have to quadruple check names and sources. Sometimes you have to go with your gut instinct. As anyone who has relied solely on "gut instinct" instead of studying for a final exam knows, gut instinct doesn't always work.
If there's one good thing to come out of this, it's that we've busted Wilbur Nether's cover. He won't find his way into the paper anymore as a source.
On one hand, the whole idea of a nonexistent housemate who can "pay" for your Sports Illustrated subscription and, if you're clever enough, make his way into a newspaper is pretty funny. At the same time, those of us who work at the newspaper take our jobs very seriously. Having mistakes like this isn't at all funny to us.
Sorry to spoil the fun, Stephenson. Please give Wilbur my apologies. But thanks for teaching us a lesson about accuracy we won't soon forget.
That goes for any other "source" who wants to pass himself or herself off as someone else. We'll be on the lookout from now on.

Civil rights leader speaks to students
By Rob Pazell
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The modern civil rights movement faces the challenge of getting all Americans involved in working toward racial equality, said the chairman of the board of directors of the NAACP.
Julian Bond answered questions from about 25 students and faculty yesterday afternoon in the Kansas Union. He spoke about his experiences with minorities and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
He said the civil rights movement was an important cause for more people than just minorities.
"The big challenge for the movement today is making this a fight for
all Americans, not just the minority." Bond said.
The question-and-answer session was in addition to the Frances Floyd Horowitz Lecture, which Bond delivered last night at the Lied Center.
Bond said his first real exposure to the movement was when nine African-American high school students, called the "Little Rock 9," attempted to integrate a white school in Little Rock, Ark.
He remembered the bravery of one student who was spit on so much the first day that the girl's mother said she had to wring out her daughter's dress.
"I remember thinking how many times did these people have to spit to have her mother wring it out?" Bond said. "I wondered if I was able to live up to the standard she set."
He said that people across the nation were in denial about discrimination issues.
"If you're in the majority, you never have to think about it," Bond said. "If you're in the minority, you think about it all the time."
He compared the NAACP's mission to a proverb about babies who had been thrown in a river. Several men jumped in to save the babies, but another man opted to head upstream to find out who was throwing the babies in the water. Bond said the group's mission resembled the ambition of the man who went upstream.
"In the past, we've tried to do some of the these small things, but we just can't do that," he said. "We're gonna find out who's throwing the babies in the water and make them stop."
ponent, which the University of Kansas has elected not to have in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, was important and should be required.
Victor Bailey, director of the Hall Center for the Humanities and professor of history, said Bond included an interesting mix of the personal and political in his discussion.
"When you leave here you're going to have to work with, sell to, and interact with these people," he said. "It just seems to me that it's a part of an education."
"He was very autobiographical some of the time, and he also illustrated his political side for the NAACP," he said. "Clearly, he has had a rich and active participation in the movement."
Bond said that a multicultural com- Edited by Amy Randolph
Male charged as rapist using DNA only
The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A Sacramento man has been charged with a 194a rape in what is believed to be the first arrest in the nation to be made with the use of a warrant that identifies a suspect by his DNA only.
Paul Eugene Robinson, 31, was arrested last month after state computers matched his genetic code to the no-name warrant. He was charged with five counts of sexual assault.
Such DNA warrants are increasingly being filed as a way to get around the statute of limitations for bringing charges against a suspect.
The warrant in the Sacramento case was issued in August as the six-year statute of limitations on the rape was about to run out. The August 1994 rape was one in a series of five rapes by a man police and newspapers called the Second Story Rapist for his penchant of attacking women who lived on the second floor of apartment buildings.
Other law enforcement agencies
around the country have filed such DNA warrants, but Robinson is believed to be the first suspect arrested through one, said Jim Polley, director of governmental affairs for the National District Attorneys Association, based in Alexandria, Va.
Lawrence Kobilinsky, assistant provost at John Jay College of Criminal Justice at the City University of New York, agreed that it was the first such arrest.
"I think someday this DNA technology will be where fingerprints
are now, where you just put the info in the computer and get a hit on your bad guy," Sacramento Detective Peter Willover said yesterday.
Robinson's attorney, Johnny L. Griffin, said he will ask that the case be thrown out. He said the statute of limitations has run out because his client was not identified by name in the warrant.
Beginning in January, a new state law will nearly eliminate the six-year statute of limitations in rape cases where DNA evidence is available.

Concert benefits local shelter for victims of violence
By Meghan Bainun
writer @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
With winter quickly approaching, a local battered womens' shelter needs help to make sure women and their children have a warm place to escape domestic violence.
A benefit concert tonight will help Women's Transitional Care Services raise money to cover some of the costs of winter maintenance. The festivities will begin at 8 p.m. at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
Meg Hooper, concert organizer and Burlington senior, said that the shelter was a safe house but that it wasn't the best possible
condition.
"The shelter is quite drafty, which is a big problem in December, when women are bringing infants in to get away from a batterer," she said.
Kate Cavanaugh, women's program director and Lawrence graduate student, said the house took in victims of domestic violence who chose to escape their abusers. The house can hold about 35 women and children. Because many women turn to WTCS seeking refuge from stalkers or abusers, the location of the house is not disclosed to the public.
Cavanaugh said the shelter, which relies on private donations and community support, also provided services for battered women
"You get a good feeling for what you did for the cause."
Luke Paul
P.S.O. bassist
such as support groups, court advocacy, and a 24-hour crisis line. Hooper, who will play in the band Muddie Mae at the concert, learned about the shelter when she volunteered and began training to work there. Even though she could not complete the training because of school and work conflicts, she said she saw how important the shelter was to the Lawrence community.
She said that after she got the idea to hold the concert, bands willing to play to support the cause were easy to find.
"There are tons of musicians in this town who really are out to make political statements," Hooper said. "There are ones who are out to make people feel good, and with this sort of concert, these bands and singing artists can do both."
Luke Paul, bassist for the band P.S.O., said students should come to the show for the good times and the good feelings the show would bring.
"You get a good feeling for what you did for the cause," he said. "You can turn around and say, 'I
was out Wednesday night — drinking,
having a good time — and I donated my money to people who
are having troubles."
And Cavanaugh said that, even though October was Domestic Violence Awareness Month, many people did not completely understand the extent of the problem.
"What a lot of people aren't realizing is that domestic violence doesn't mean you have to have a black eye," she said. "There's emotional abuse, financial abuse, sexual threats, intimidation, isolation. There's a lot of things like that that are happening that aren't going to leave a black and blue mark on the body, but are very real."

Senators debate meaning of fewer pieces of legislation
By Krusten Phelps
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff write
Student Senate meetings have been brief recently because of a small amount of legislation, but senators say they're still getting work done.
During its two October meetings, Senate considered seven pieces of legislation, down from 12 last October and 17 in October of 1998.
"I've noticed that there's less legislation, but I'm not sure that Senate is doing less work," said J.D. Jenkins, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator. "Senate has changed its focus toward other projects that don't necessarily involve legislation."
Most bills pushed through Senate allocate money to student organizations, and Jenkins said senators couldn't introduce funding bills unless organizations come to a senator requesting money.
"I don't know why the numbers are down, but I wouldn't be concerned unless we get farther into the year and we still only have three bills a week," Jenkins said.
Marlon Marshall, student body vice president, said Senate was working on a slew of projects that didn't require passing a bill. Those projects include a program to allow Daisy Hill residents to use their
meal plans at the Kansas Union and Wes coe Terrace, an a p art m en t guide, student discounts at local businessse

SENATE
and Senate outreach efforts.
"I'm not saying that legislation is a bad thing, but we're getting a lot of stuff done that you might not see in Senate's actual meetings," he said.
Another benefit of a lack of legislation, Marshall said, was that meeting time could be dedicated to discussing other issues like the city's proposed housing ordinance and senators' goals for their constituencies.
But Erin Simpson, off-campus senator, said she looked forward to longer meetings that addressed more legislation.
"I think the real problem is that 45
minute meetings make people think that's how long meetings are supposed to be and that people are going to be ants, thinking they need to be out of there by 8 o'clock," she said. "Sometimes you get done early and sometimes you need to stick around and hash things out, even when it's mundane or nasty. We're there to fix problems."
Katie Bartkoski, a Student Rights committee member who has been involved in Senate for three years, said she looked at the slow trickle of legislation in two ways.
Last year, she said, a lot of the bills introduced were "kind of nit picky, changing rules and regulations to change little things that would in theory make things run more smoothly."
On the other hand, she said it also seemed like more senators took up issues and introduced legislation to address them.
"It's hard to say why there's not as much," Bartkoski said. "There's got to be issues out there. Maybe somehow there's some apathy on the part of some senators."

Students plan to protest Israeli-Palestinian coverage
By Kursen Phelps writer@kanson.com
Kansen staff writer
Students will protest tomorrow the conflict in Israel and Palestine and what they say is biased U.S. media coverage.
The protest, organized by Phara Charmchi,
Kansas City, Kan., graduate student, and
Raja Abu-Jahr, Palestine, graduate student,
will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. tomorrow
on the lawn between Stauffer-Flint and
Wescoe halls.
Charmilch said that raising awareness was their main goal, and that they would distribute articles about the conflict from non-U.S. media sources and would answer any questions people had about the conflict.
"We're protesting the Israeli occupation of Palestine in general and more specifically what is now condemned as Israeli brutality against Palestine by most of the nations in world." Charmilc said. "We're also protesting the amount of aid the U.S. gives to Israeli forces when it commits crimes against humanity."
Abu-Jabr said she hoped to give students a different perspective of the conflict.
"There is another side of the story. What people see in the media here is not the whole story," Abu-Jabr said. "People are being shot for throwing rocks to defend their land. They want freedom, and that's a basic right that everyone should have."
"It's been really horrible lately," she said. "It's not just a person being shot in the head or chest anymore, it's collecting pieces of brains. It's so violent and so disturbing."
Charmit said the demonstrators would protest against the Israeli military forces, not
"This is in no way against Israeli citizens or Jews at all and it not meant to be represented as a religious crisis," Charmchi said. "Rather, it is against the Israeli military's excessive use of force and the government — Israeli and American — sanction of that."
Abu-Jabr said she tried contact her family, who lives in the conflict-ridden Gaza Strip.
Sarah Rubin, Elgin, Ill., junior and KU Hillier member, said a group of Jewish students would hand out ribbons and filers listing Web sites where students can find more information about the conflict tomorrow at Wescoe Beach.
"We're just students for peace in the Middle East," Rubin said. "We are pro-Irael, but also pro-peace. I know they don't want any negative displays, and our biggest fear is that there have been some severely negative displays on other campuses. We don't want anything like that to happen here."
Rubin agreed that U.S. news coverage often favored the Israeli position.
"I think that since this summer's peace talks, it definitely took a pro-Israel slant." Rubin said. "For students here it makes for a tough, emotional, confusing position to be in."
daily to stav updated on what was happening.
should begin arriving next June. The fare will be 50 cents for adults and children above the age of six. Children under six, adults older than 60 years old and people who are disabled or have a Medicare card will pay 25 cents. Monthly passes have not been developed, but could be added, Rexroad said.
The commission also debated the advisory committee's recommendation not to have advertising on the interior or exterior of the buses until the system was running smoothly and a policy could be set. They will revisit the issue in six months to a year.
Krebs and Rexrox agreed that the city system would complement the current KU on Wheels and give students more options. One of the routes will run from downtown through the KU campus and then south on Iowa Street.
— Edited by J. R. Mendoza
"We see it as an opportunity to coordinate and perhaps extend where students can get to on a bus," Rexroad said. In other action:
The city has contracted with MV Transportation to run the system at a cost of $1.6 million per year. The 12 buses will cost $200,000 each. The federal government would provide 50 percent of the operating costs and reimburse 80 percent for the purchase of the buses, Retrocard said.

Mid-December start likely for city busing
The City Commission approved the purchase of 20 acres northwest of town for park land. The property is at the intersection of Folks and Peterson roads and is valued at $13,000 per acre, a total of $280,000. The property is heavily wooded and could be used for hiking trails and park use. No immediate plans are set for the property.

Johnson to showcase new look to her game

Kansas sportwriter
The women's basketball team has a new look forward to go with its new-look offense this season.
Senior Jaclyn Johnson used her offseason to transform her game from a powerful, low-post-oriented style to a run-and-gun style.
Johnson, under the watchful eye of strength coach Kevin Carter, worked hard in her offseason workouts so she could fill the lanes in transition.
"Everyone's gotten a lot faster, slimmed down, including myself," Johnson said.
Both Johnson and Carter were excited about the results from the offseason and the effect those could have on the season.
Johnson also said she was excited about switching back to her power forward spot. Last season she had to play a lot of center, and now she would get a chance to outrun other forwards down the floor.
Another way Johnson will be able to create mismatches is by using her outside shooting touch. Johnson has been working extensively on her outside game, which adds an extra dimension to her game.
"And if I can do that, it's really going to create a lot of mismatches." she said.
Johnson said the 'Hawks were going to run the triangle offense and the passing system, which leaves her at the top of the key. In years past, she would look to pass the ball, but now, she's looking to knock a few shots down.
"If they kick it back to me, I might as well shoot it," she said.
Now the question is: Can she make the shots? Senior guard Jennifer Jackson joked about Johnson's shot selection.
Coach Marian Washington said that Johnson would be a key component to the success of the season and that Johnson's ability to shoot from low-range would significantly help the Jayhawks.
"She takes a lot of shots and makes some of them," Jackson said.
If Johnson hits from the outside, it will provide an invaluable service to the Kansas offense. Last season, Johnson was the fourth-leading scorer on the team with 11.5 points per game, and those numbers are bound to rise this season.
Along with team success could come personal success. Johnson received votes in the coaches preseason All-Big 12 poll, but if she consistently hits outside shots she might just be a surprise on the postseason All-Big 12 team.

As she becomes more of a threat from the outside, Johnson will draw defenders out of the paint, leaving players such as junior centers Dalchon Brown and Kristin Geoffroy loose inside for some easy buckets.

Boschee, Axtell to plug defensive holes
REYNOLDS 5
By Michael Rigg
sports@kansas.com
Kansan sportswriter
For the past few seasons, guarding high scorers on the perimeter was simple for the Kansas Jayhawks.
If the scorer was taller and liked driving to the basket, Nick Bradford would fit the bill. If he was a stand-up jump shooter, guard Marlon London — arguably the team's best defender the past two seasons — would take him.
But now both are gone, as London sits out this season after transferring to DePaul, and Bradford hopes to suit up for the new American Basketball Association's Kansas City Knights come December. Their departure leaves Kansas coach Roy Williams worried.
"We're a little concerned," Williams said. "Not having that 6-foot-4, 6-foot-5, 6-foot-6 defensive player in the lineup is something that we've got to see if we can plug as much as we can."
The tape and speckle that Williams hopes will cover up his team's defensive holes is junior guard Jeff Boschee, who moved from point guard to shooting guard last season. He will be matched up with the top scorer of many opponents.
Kansas coach Roy Williams says junior guard Jeff Boschee must be defensive stopper this season. The team lost arguably its best defender from last year when guard Marton Lontano transferred. Kansas file photo
"We've got to get Jeff Boschee playing the two," Williams said. "We've got to be able to defend that type of player, and I think that's a big area of concern for us right now."
At times, senior guard Luke Axtell will relieve Boschee. At the start of last season, Williams noted Axtell's defensive weaknesses. This season,
Williams said that Axtell's defense had improved but that he was still not one of the Jayhawks' premiere defenders.
"Luke works hard and has gotten bet
ter defensively, but Luke's not a defen slive stopper," Williams said.
Williams insisted his Jayhawks would improve defensively this season — not because of whom his team lost,
but because of who returned.
"I do think we'll be better defensively, just from the fact of going through drills for a year and the experience we had last year." Williams said.
Axtell agreed.
"We have a lot of veterans on this team," Axtell said. "And that will be good for us as far as confidence."
The Jayhawks will have an opportunity to test that confidence — and their defense — when they open up their exhibition season against the California All-Stars next week.
Kansas Basketball Notes
The news keeps getting worse on the Jayhawk recruiting trail.
Late Monday night, Jamal Sampson, a 6-foot-10 center from Santa Ana, Calif., announced Kansas had dropped out of his recruiting race.
Sampson, who said distance from home played a large part in his decision, said he would announce this week whether he would attend California-Berkeley or St. Louis University.
Sampson attended Late Night with Roy Williams Oct. 13 with fellow recruits Michael Lee, Aaron Miles and Josh Childress.
Lee committed to Kansas that weekend, and Childress announced Monday he would go to Stanford. Miles, meanwhile, will announce his decision after he visits Arizona on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Keith Langford, a 6-foot-4 guard from Crowley, Texas, announced he would visit Kansas on Friday, Nov. 3. He also is considering Oklahoma and Baylor.

Rugby players glorify blood pain, sacrifice of front teeth
Here's a little fun fact for you: Did you know that last Saturday's Kansas men's rugby game against Central Missouri State never was completed?
The score was 70-5. Kansas dominating. With about 15 minutes left in the second half, a Central Missouri State player got busted in the face so hard that he couldn't play anymore. He was a bloody mess. He was done. He quit.
And so did the rest of the Central Missouri State squad. Kansas actually beat them into submission. There was no final whistle. No last play. The Mules simply bowed their bloodied faces and said, "We quit."
Yeah, these guys are tough. They're not playing too bad lately, either. For the season, they're a mediocre 5-5, but they did win the Heart of America Tournament recently, beating Nebraska, Missouri and Truman State. It was the first time Kansas beat Truman State since 1992.
I talked to John Davidson the other day about why anyone would want to play rugby. John, a senior from Olathe, plays the "lock" position for Kansas rugby, which means he's in the middle of the "scrum." The scrum is the time in a game when the opposing teams lock up in inverted pyramids and fight for possession of the ball.
Anyway, John gave me a rather grim reason that he likes to play rugby.
"I can't pass up an opportunity to be this hostile and yet it still be legal," he said.
Violence? John loves it. He's the type of guy who thinks Saving Private Ryan would have been better if the movie had never left the opening storming-of Normandy scene. He thinks those Caught on Tape videos where people get mowed down by wild boars are laugh-out-loud funny.
I had a couple of rugby guys play on my intramural soccer team, the Vatican City Diablos. They were definitely the enforcers of the squad. Their soccer skills weren't the best, but they sure as hell could knock someone off the ball. In fact, I'm pretty sure that a couple times John turned the ball over on purpose, just so he could plow over the opponent's forwards again.
J. P. Davies, Leawood junior and captain of the men's rugby team, told me that the injuries aren't as serious as they are in football.
Of course, J.P. doesn't have six of his front teeth anymore. He lost them all in August. Three made their way to the tooth fairy after he took an elbow to the face in a game. He had some dental work done and returned to the field the next week with a nice new smile. During that game, he got kicked in the teeth. The three new fake teeth were gone, as well as three others.
If you're the violent type, the rugby guys are playing in town at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Westwick Rugby Complex. To get there, go south on Iowa Street until you leave town, then take a right on Douglas County 458. It's two miles out that way.
The team is looking for new players,
if you're interested. What have you got
to lose? OK — besides your teeth?

Yankees pitcher fined for throwing a bat
NEW YORK — New York Yankees pitcher Roger Clemens was fined yesterday for throwing the jagged barrel of a shattered bat toward New York Mets catcher Mike Piazza in Game 2 of the World Series on Sunday.
BASEBALL
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Clemens was not suspended for throwing the broken bat in the first inning of Sunday night's game.
Clemens engaged in inappropriate conduct, according to a statement by Frank Robinson, the vice president of the commissioner's office in charge of discipline.
Yankees
The amount of the fine was not disclosed, and Robinson didn't
give an explanation of his decision. But a high-ranking baseball official, speaking on the condition he not be identified, said the fine was at least $10,000.
The players' association can appeal Robinson's decision to Paul Beeston, baseball's chief operating officer.
During the game, umpires concluded that Clemens, who also hit Piazza on July 8, did not deliberately throw the broken bat at the catcher. Clemens was not ejected and pitched eight shutout innings in the Yankees' 6-5 win over the Mets.
While pitching for Boston in 1990, Clemens was ejected during a game against Oakland in the American League playoffs by bumpie Terry Cooney, who claimed that Clemens was cursing at him.
ATHLETIC
Clemens was suspended for five games and fined $10,000. After hearing the appeal, commissioner Fay Vincent concluded Clemens didn't curse at $ooney but said the pitcher's actions were unwarranted
and upheld the penalties. The suspension was served about a month into the 1991 season.
HOUSTON — Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan is back in the hospital after having chest pains on a recent business trip.
Possible heart problems hospitalize Ryan again
The 53-year-old strikeout king underwent double coronary bypass surgery in April. He was resting comfortably at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital on Tuesday after being admitted the day before, a spokesman said.
Hospital spokeswoman Sandra Warner said that doctors anticipated that Ryan would be discharged in a few days. She added that he was looking forward to watching the World Series with his family.
Ryan, who had 5,714 career strikeouts and pitched a record seven no-hitters, underwent emergency heart surgery on April 23 at the Heart Hospital of Austin, Texas. Tests then showed he had substantial blockage in a main coronary artery, but did not have a heart attack at that time either.
"The doctors have ruled out a heart attack, and he is undergoing diagnostic testing," hospital spokesman Jaspe Tieltling said.

NCAA puts Minnesota on four-year probation
BASKETBALL
MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota men's basketball program was placed on a four-year probation and stripped of five scholarships yesterday after the NCAA found academic fraud in some of the most serious rules violations in two decades.
The Golden Gophers will not be banned from another year of postseason play, although that was considered, according to an NCAA news release obtained by The Associated Press.
In addition, three former university employees, including former coach Clem Haskins, will have to appear before the NCAA infractions committee if they want to return to college sports.
The committee agreed with the university that from 1994 to 1998, a former tutor did some 400 pieces of homework for at least 18 men's basketball student-athletes.
Conference tournament to return in Pac-10
An eight-team men's tournament and a 10-team women's tournament will be held at Staples Center in Los Angeles. The winners will earn the conference's automatic NCAA bids.

The University of Kansas men's and women's bowling teams gained momentum after a weekend tournament at Westridge Lanes in Topeka.
The men's team fielded A and B teams for the tournament that finished fourth and eighth out of 20 teams.
The women's team finished seventh out of 11 teams.
Men's team captain Tom Partridge, Olathe senior, was the high scorer for the A team with a 215 average while Glenn Harrison, Frontenac sophomore, led all Jayhawk bowlers with a 216 average on the B squad.
Coach Michael Fine rewarded Harrison by promoting him to play on the A team when the 'Hawks send one squad to Chicago for the 80-team field at the Chicago Brunswick Great Lakes Tournament on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 10 and 11.
Fine said he was pleased with the team's performance and
would like to see it continue its solid play.
"I thought we learned a lot," Fine said. "(Central Missouri State) had won two tournaments this year and we finished ahead of them."
While the Jayhawks' A squad finished ahead of Central Missouri State, it came up short against a familiar nemesis.
"Nebraska has set the standard in this league." Fine said. "They finished first and third in this tournament."
The men's team has set the goal of reaching the 16-team national championship in April in Grand Rapids, Mich. In order to qualify for the competition, the Jayhawks must place in the top four of a 16-team qualifier in March in Kansas City, Kan.
Partridge said he was excited at the prospect of seeing Harrison join the A squad.
"We only had five in Topeka this past weekend." Partridge said. "And Glenn proved that he is a very viable option for this team."
Harrison also said he was look
forward to future competitions as a member of the A squad.
"My goal is for this team is to win, and I have no individual goals," Harrison said. "This team can be competitive with anyone."
"Overall, I was encouraged with all of the new team members," Fine said. "However, they need to do a better job shooting spares."
Although the inexperienced women's team did not enjoy the success the men's squads did, Fine said he was pleased despite the women's seventh-place finish.
Kristina Boehm, Olathe sophomore, was the high scorer for the Jayhawks with a 190 average. Boehm said she was impressed with the team's effort and the way team newcomers adjusted to the competition of collegiate bowling.
"We had a couple of freshmen and new bowlers, so it was hard for them at first," Boehm said. "However, we had good communication and we will continue to get better as a team."

'Hawks hope to aggravate Aggies
By Sarah Warren

Kansan sportswriter
Tip-top shots will be necessary for the Kansas volleyball team to topple No. 25 Texas & AM at 7 onight at the Horeisi Family Athletic Centers.
The Aggies (13-5, 8-3 in the Big 12 Conference) downed the Jayhawks in three games when the teams met Sept. 15 in College Station, Texas.
Now the Hawks (12,8,3-4) will look for their first win against the Aggies, who have dominated Kansas 10-0 since the teams first met in 1990. In fact, the last time the Jayhawks stole a game in a match from the Aggies was in 1997.
"They're playing really well," said coach Ray Bechard. "They've won five of their last six. I'm sure they're'

Station, write the 'Hawks fell to Colorado in three games in Boulder, Colo. the same day.
Bechard said that Kansas
VOLLEYBALL
hadn't performed as a team in its losses, but as a group of athletes competing at very different levels. Therefore, to ace the Aggies, the Jayhawks must upgrade as a team, rather than as individuals.
"It's a ranked opponent," he said.
"We've had a few people playing well, but not everybody's on the same page."
However, Bechard did say that the play of senior outside hitter Amy Myatt, who killed 18 balls against Colorado, was a welcomed highlight.
"When she gets a big swing, she's an energy producer for our team," he said. "But it's going to have to be a collective, group effort if we're going to win."
Besides resolving team effort issues, the Jayhawks will have to concentrate on other parts of their game to take the match from the Aggies.
Its ranking aside, Texas A&M is No. 1 in the Big 12 in both kills per game (18.31) and digs per game (19.34) — a deadly combination. This means that not only can the team easily smack the ball to the floor for a kill, but it also can prevent opponents' shots from becoming point-earning kills.
"You've really got to strike the ball with some energy to get that ball onto the floor," Bechard said. "They're a really good digging team."
In fact, getting the ball to the floor right away seems to be the only way to score against the Aggies.
"They're also a really good rally team," Bechard said. "And I think the longer the rally goes, the better they feel about winning it."
In addition to raising their record and their confidence, pride is at stake for the Jayhawks, as tonight's match will be broadcast at 11 a.m. Friday on the Fox Sports Net.
"We have a big match," said Nancy Bell, senior outside hitter. "It's going to be televised. We have to execute unlike we did Saturday."

Chiefs to play next 5 games on the road
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Schedulewise, the easy part's finished for Kansas City.
The Associated Press
Playing five of their first seven at home, the Chiefs are 4-3, coming off a rolllicking 54-34 victory against previously unbeaten St. Louis in the biggest win of Gunther Cunningham's career.
But now they're on the road for five of their next six, starting with a back-and-forth three-week swing to West Coast destinations Seattle, Oakland and San Francisco.
Then after a home game Sunday, Nov. 19 against Buffalo, the Chiefs go back on the road to San Diego and then hurriedly pack up once more and fly to New England for their second Monday night game of the year.
The Chiefs have not had to play three straight road games since 1995. And the last time Kansas City was asked to play five of six away from home was 1960.
The Chiefs considered several possibilities for dealing with the unusual situation, including going to the West Coast sites on Friday instead of Saturday and even spending at least one week there.
"There was a thought about going a day early. But when you go a day early, you get too much lag time at the site where you're going to play and sometimes players lose their focus." Cunningham said.
After considerable thought, Cunningham nixed the idea of staying on the West Coast instead of coming right back to Kansas City.
Cunningham said quarterback Elvis Grbac was expected to be ready Sunday despite a bruised elbow. But defensive end Eric Hicks, who leads the Chiefs with seven sacks, injured his knee in the St. Louis game and could be out 4 to 6 weeks.
A big positive from the Rams game was the play of defensive lineman Duane Clemons, who missed four games with a hip injury.
"I thought he might play 25 plays. But he played a lot more than that," Cunningham said.

Climbing club clings to camaraderie
By Michael Sudhalter
Kansas sportswriter
sports@kansan.com
The University of Kansas rock climbing club is planning this year's spring break trip because of a chance excursion last year.
During last year's spring break, president Chris Brooks, Lawrence senior, and 20 club members planned a rock climbing trip to the scenic mountains of Colorado.
But when snow hit the destination, the group drove an extra eight hours to Moab. Utah.
The rock climbing club, which trains on two different walls at Room 207 of the Robinson Center and the IBEX Rock Gym in Blue Springs, Mo., takes day
The trips also help the group build its unique camaraderie — a bond that kept the members together for the extra eight hours to Utah, and is sending the group back to Utah this spring break.
"The trips are the best part of the club," Brooks said. "It is where you get your money's worth."
Because climbing Robinson's 24-foot wall is vastly different than scaling the Wichita Mountains, Brooks requires members to take indoor and outdoor safety tests.
"I like hanging out with the people in the club and teaching new members about climbing," she said.
Michelle Harp, Overland Park senior and rock climbing veteran, enjoys the recreational aspect of the sport.
Brooks said that the club's friendly atmosphere made it different than clubs at other universities.
"We travel to Warsaw, Mo., during the week and the Wichita Mountains of Arkansas on some weekends," Brooks said.
"Our club is a lot more social than other rock climbing clubs," he said. "My friends at Missouri and Northern Iowa have told me that their clubs are not like that."
New member Sarah
Wulkuhle, Topeka freshman,
"People here are so nice in the club, and it is cool to go to places that I've never been before," she said.
said the group's camaraderie impressed her.
The club has also attracted diverse members. Some use rock climbing to train for other sports, while others simply enjoy the challenge.
Brian Arnold, Chaska, Minn., sophomore, said the sport provided exercise and fun.
"I joined the rock climbing club to improve my forearm strength for gymnastics and I like the prospect of being outside," he said.
Other members enjoy the sudden rush that goes along with the sport of rock climbing.
"It is relaxing when you get that momentary period of weightlessness when you are falling," said Ty Kastl, Fort Scott junior, referring to climbing with a harness and rope. "I enjoy the beautiful scenery that accompanies this adrenaline-rushed sport."
and weekend trips throughout the semester.

For a person who claims she's never particularly liked cross country, sophomore Bridget Morrissey is having quite a season.
Because of her injuries last year, she did not even finalize her decision to run cross country this season until a week before practice began.
Morrisey missed Kansas' first meet of the year because of her late start, but she started out her season with a strong 35th-place performance at the Iowa State Open on Sept. 16. Morrissey was then the third-highest placing Jayhawk at the

considered cross country to be most valuable as a warmup for her track seasons. Her attitude has changed with her recent successes.
"I'm an 800 runner in track so cross country is something I always did just for training," she said. "In the past, I've felt obligated to run cross country, but being successful this year has kept me going."

Kansas defender scores with 3 goals this season
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Defenders in some sports can turn into dangerous scorers.
If you have doubts, ask sophomore defender Brianna Valento, whose third goal this season against Baylor on Sunday not only helped the Kansas women's soccer team tie the No. 6 team in the central region, but it also placed her fourth in the Jayhawk goal-scoring chart.
"I was super excited about scoring three goals," she said. "My job is to stop the other team from scoring, but it's awesome when I can contribute to the other end of scoreboard. I know that the forwards
Among her three goals, the game winner against Oklahoma State on Sept. 24 excited Valento the most.
work-hard, and I know that they try to put goals everyday. In order for me to help them, I have to do everything up there."
Soccer
said Valento, last year's Freshman MVP. "So it was exciting for a defender to put us over the top and win the game."
Her goals are welcomed surprises for the Jayhawks, who have played without Hilla Rantala, the team's single-season scoring record holder whose sidelined with an injury. The 'Hawks have struggled to find the back of the net throughout the season.
"Anytime anybody can put the ball in the goal, that can make you happy," said Kansas coach Mark Francis.
Valento didn't develop her scoring abilities overnight. She played forward when she was in grade school. As she grew stronger, her coaches started to put her on defense.
After playing sweeper at Cretin-Derham Hall High School in St. Paul, Minn., where she led the Raiders to St. Paul conference championships from 1996 to 1998.
"Mark first put me in the midfield, but he realized my strength was at defense, and I ended up there" the 5-foot-7-inch defender said.
Valento said she loved playing in the Nebraska game because she had an opportunity to play the best forwards and stop them.

Francis, who put Valento on defense, said he was pleased with her performance this season.
Kansas' next game will be Friday against Missouri in Columbia, Mo.
"Brie's had a great year," he said. "She's very consistent and her level of play is very high."
Valento said she would like to help the team both defensively and offensively.
I'd like to score," she said. "And for me, to help the team is to go on to the field, stay positive no matter what happens, and work with the defenders and the midfielders to keep Missouri from scoring any goals." -Edited by Kathyn Moore

IT'S A TRICK!
NO, HELEN...
Kudrow moved on to her recurring role on Mad About You, in which she played the waitress who would ask customers whether they wanted cheese on their cheese-burgers.
"It just wasn't working. That whole week of rehearsal, I could just feel it slipping away." Kudrow said.
As Phoebe on Friends, Kudrow has been an almost perennial Emmy nominee, winning once.
Kudrow, 37, grew up in southern California and went to Vassar College, where she earned a biology degree. She planned to go to graduate school and become a medical researcher before abruptly switching to acting.
LOS ANGELES — Early in her career, Lisa Kudrow decided to go a bit bary and develop some loopy characters. She figured it might help cure her tendency to come across as stiff, sober and standoffish.
On the advice of Jon Lovitz, a friend of her brother who had just joined Saturday Night Live, Kudrow tried out for the Groundlings and joined the group.
The Associated Press
Kudrow does not plan to change TV roles for awhile. She and her Friends co-stars banded together to negotiate a two-year deal that gives them big raises, with each receiving an estimated $20 million a year.
"I just thought, I'm too serious, I'm too rigid and I put people off because I can't not girly, sexy, coy," Kudrow said. "I just needed to lighten things up. Whenever I would do those ditzy characters or pretend to be sort of Annie Hallish, just a little scattered or showing some vulnerability, it really helped out a lot."
"I was always told or had it suggested that I'm not fun, especially when I first graduated from college and decided I was going to be an actress," Kudrow said in an interview to promote her latest film, Lucky Numbers, which stars John Travolta and opens Friday.
NO! I JUST KNOW THE SOFTWARE VENDOR WOULDN'T CHEAT ME!
HEY, I'M HAVING A DEJA VU!
Kudrow became television's reigning queen of dizziness as the scatterbrained Phoebe on Friends and the assiduously incompetent waitress Ursula on Mad About You.
She began developing a more offbeat persona, both for auditions and for the Los Angeles comedy group the Groundlings, where she got her professional start in the late 1980s.

Mets' outfielder leads team to defeat Yankees
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The player who wasn't supposed to be in the lineup got the hit that put the New York Mets back in the World Series last night.
With the score tied at 2 and the Mets needing to bust up Orlando Hernandez's perfect postseason record, up to the plate stepped Agbayani in the eighth inning with a runner on first.
He was supposed to be on the bench.
Manager Bobby Valentine was supposed to start a left-hander against El Duque.
But Valentine left in Agbayani and he delivered. Again.
"We're here because of him," Valentine said. "He's one of the key players on the team."
Agbayani drove El Duque's second pitch, his 133rd of the night, into the left-center field gap, and Todd Zelie scored all the way from first.
"As I was rounding first, I said,
'C'mon, Todd, you can do it, you can
do it," Agaybani said. "Once he
crossed home
plate, I was like,
'thank you.'
Mets
Joe McEwing came in to pinch run for him and scored on Bubba Trammell's sacri-
Agbayani fulfilled Valentine's expectations.
Agbayani was the most controversial Met before the Series. His prediction, made jokingly, that the Mets would win in five games became front-page news, posted in the Yankees' dugout on Saturday.
Still, Valentine remained confident in him.
"I was a little bit baffled by people
who followed our team all year and didn't think he should be playing today," he said. "I never considered not playing him. I never considered pinch hitting for him."
Agbayani had struck out, filed out and walked in his first three at-bats. He talked with the Mets' hitting coach before walking up to the plate.
"I was trying to look for something low because he was throwing me up, and I was chasing them," he said. "So
(Tom) Robson just tell me get the ball down and drive it out to the outfield."
Before
October 31,
Agbayani
had been best
known for his
Yankees
accomplishments at the start of the 1999 season, when he hit 10 homers in his first 73 at-bats, becoming the fastest Met to reach double figures.
Like Swoboda, he's gone on to become a Mets postseason hero.
breaking a mark Ron Swoboda set in 1965.
With the first-round series against San Francisco tied 1-1, with the Mets and Giants battling into extra innings to gain control of the series, Agbayani homered off Aaron Fultz in the 13th inning for a 3-2 New York win.
While bigger names grab the headlines, Agbayani manages to get his hits, day in and day out.
The 28-year-old outfielder has hit in all 12 postseason games now, no hit bigger than the one that ended El Duque's 8-0 mark of postseason perfection.
Back in Hawaii, Agbayani's a star. A TV station there sent a camera crew all the way to New York to cover his World Series exploits.

The player's body is slightly bent forward, with arms extended towards the ball. The background is a plain, dark surface, likely a field or court. The player's focus and athleticism are evident, highlighting the dynamic nature of the sport.

Players will not be charged with assault
By Katie Hollar writer@kansan.com
Kansas senior staff writer
No charges will be filed against the two football players accused of assaulting a female soccer player last spring.
The victim said yesterday she was told that despite a six-month-long investigation, there was not enough evidence to file charges against the men. The witnesses all told police they didn't remember anything, she said.
The witnesses were University of Kansas football players.
"I can't believe (the suspects) are actually getting away with it," she said. "They should probably give their friends a big thank you. Their lies have saved them."
Prosecutors could not be reached for comment.
According to the soccer player, she was approached by the two
men Feb. 26 outside the Yacht Club, 530* Wisconsin St. They held her down, then fondled, spanked and taunted her.
She first reported the assault to her soccer coach, and she agreed to let football coach Terry Allen handle the situation rather than going to the police.
When she heard that Allen's punishment consisted of making the two run stairs at Memorial Stadium, she went to Bob Frederick, athletics director. On April 26, she gave a statement to police.
One of the accused football players continues to play for the team. He had been placed on probation, pending results from the police investigation.
The other man was dismissed from the University for poor grades and now plays football at Garden City Community College.
Neither Allen nor Frederick returned phone calls last night.
After hearing that no charges would be filed, Ted Frederickson, the victim's former professor, said he was disappointed — but not surprised.
"She knew when she went to police that the witnesses to the attack on her were KU football players, teammates of the accused," said Frederickson, professor of journalism. "She assumed they would tell the truth about what they saw."
The case went down to her word against theirs, he said.
"That is obviously very good for their football team, which could not afford to lose a starter," Frederickson said. "This decision does not mean they are innocent, only that the prosecutor doesn't feel she has enough evidence to convict."
This decision could prompt further protest of the football team, said Kyle Browning, Lawrence senior.
At the first two home games, he and members of Delta Force and the Women's Action Empowerment Coalition distributed handbills with information about the case and anti-Allen messages.
Browning said the protesters might return to Saturday's game against Texas Tech.
"I think some kind of action would be appropriate," he said. "I know for a fact a lot of people won't think this is good or appropriate."
The victim said she would finish the soccer season, but she would not involve herself with the athletics department again.
"No one could understand this," she said. "I don't know where to go from here."

Low supply may exist until after holidays

The system was released early this morning and is expected to fly off the shelves.
Students hunting for the new Sony Playstation 2 computer entertainment system might have to rely on a bit of luck or the Internet's black market to get the system before Christmas.

Sony plans to release 500,000 units of the Playstation 2, followed by 100,000 units a week *through the holiday season.*
That may not be enough.
That is, not because Chad Wells, a SuperTarget executive, said the high-tech toy may be difficult to find.

However, he said, students who didn't get a Playstation today might have plenty of time to save up the nearly $300 it would cost to buy the machine.
"Many people believe that if you aren't going to get them opening day, you may not have them before New Year's," Wells said.
Ricky Allen, assistant manager at Wal-Mart, 3300 Iowa St., said Wal-Mart would have the same problem keeping the Playstation in stock.
"Whatever they send us is what we get," he said. "This will be the initial shipment, but after that it's anybody's guess."

Area bikers pedal back for Critical Mass ride
By Matt Merkel-Hess
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The ride starts at 5 p.m. at Watson Park, between the 600 block of Tennessee and Kentucky streets. A discussion will precede the ride at 4 p.m., said Llowell Fletcher, Lawrence resident and one of the ride's organizers.
Bikers will hit the streets tomorrow for this fall's second Critical Mass ride, which organizers hope will raise awareness and visibility of bicycle issues in Lawrence.
"We wanted to do it again to show it wasn't a one-time thing and to keep the energy up," he said.
Fletcher said organizers wanted to keep ideas on bike lanes and sustainable transportation in the forefront.
"We're just trying to let people know what we're doing," he said. "We're not trying to cause trouble or provoke the police in any way."
About 125 people participated in the first ride on Sept. 21. Twelve people were issued traffic safety violations for crossing the center line and running red lights, and one person was forcibly arrested after he tried to steal an officer's radio.
Det. M.T. Brown of the Lawrence Police Department said officers would be present at tomorrow's ride to monitor the riders and keep
traffic flowing.
"We hope that there is no violence and that everybody obeys the rules," he said. "We're trying to make sure they get to ride down the road and to make sure nobody gets hit by a car."
Brown said the police department would be there to help facilitate the ride. He compared the ride to other events that temporarily disrupt traffic such as road races or parades. He said as long as no laws were broken, the police would simply be observers of the ride.
Kurt Lane, Overland Park junior, attended planning meetings for the second ride and said he wanted people to become more aware of sustainable transportation before fossil fuels supplies were exhausted.
"An economy based on extraction and exploitation is not sustainable," he said. "Why don't we start working on that before our backs are up against the wall?"
Lane said he wanted to see more bike lanes in Lawrence and that a Critical Mass ride was a direct way to create a dialogue within the city.

"Even if people don't like it, it still makes them think," he said. "I'm excited just seeing whether we can sustain and just build off the initial energy and overcome the negatives that came out of it."
Senate voices opposition to housing ordinance
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"It's a fairly simple presentation of some of our arguments," said Holly Krebs, Senate Student Rights Committee chairwoman.
Student Senate made its opposition to a proposed Lawrence housing ordinance official at its meeting last night.
at its meeting Senate approved a resolution that outlined its arguments against the proposal, which would lower the number of unrelated people allowed to live in residences zoned for single families from four to two.
The resolution argues that the proposed ordinance unfairly targets students as a group that is responsible for the degradation of Lawrence neighborhoods.
"This is an issue of neighborhood stability, and they are concerned that we are a transient population," Krebs said. "I think an excellent point to make is that even though as individuals we're transient, as a group, we are stable. There are always going to be students here making important contributions to the city."
The Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods, which supports the proposal, has cited party houses, poor maintenance of houses, increased rental of single-family houses and a drop in enrollment at some elementary schools as problems that would be alleviated by the proposed ordinance.
But Krebs said it was important to show the city commission the contribution that University of Kansas students made to the Lawrence community, as well.
Krebs said the resolution would be sent to the city planning commission, city commission and local media outlets. A copy probably also will be sent to the chancellor and the provost's office, she said.
Krebs and eight other students affiliated with Senate also will speak against the ordinance at a town hall meeting Wednesday night. Senate has rented a bus to shuttle students to the meeting, which will start at 6:30 p.m.
Although speakers must register for the first part of Wednesday's meeting, other students still can speak during an open forum segment of the meeting. Erin Simpson, off campus senator, encouraged other students to voice their opposition to the proposed ordinance.
In other business:
Ben Walker, student body president, announced that the Athletics Department had decided to move the Marching Jayhawks next to the student section in Memorial Stadium. The decision will take effect at Saturday's home game against Texas Tech.
Senate approved a bill that would allow registered student organizations to rent audio-visual equipment at the Kansas Union for free. Senate will pay the Union $3,000 this year to purchase a portable sound system and to provide free use of audio-visual equipment for organizations this year and next year.
"Senate passed a resolution requesting two-for-one "parking passes for married residents of Stouffer Place and Sunflower Apartments.

Fraternity members to attend step show
Members of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity will head to Kansas State University this weekend for the Neak Frasty Step Show and Concert.
The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at K-State's Bramlage Coliseum. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased from Ticketmaster.
Jermaine Marshall, Fort Worth, Texas, junior, and member of Alpha Phi Alpha, said his fraternity won the step show last year. It will just be attending this year's event, however, putting off its performance until spring
"It's just an event where everyone in the region can get together and have a good time," he said.
Carl Thomas, who emerged as a rhythm and blues artist last year, will be the show's main attraction, Marshall said.
Following the step show, there will be a party at Brandenberry Complex. Marshall said 2,500 people attended Neak Frasty last year, and 3,500 are expected on Saturday.
"I'm guaranteeing it will be a blast," Marshall said.
Women,men to protest violence,sexual assault
A few hundred women will march down Massachusetts Street tonight, hoping to "Take Back the Night."
The event is part of Sexual Violence Awareness Week and is a way for women to connect with one another as they protest rape and assault against women.
Pre-march events will begin at 5:30 p.m. at Watson Park, Eighth and Kentucky streets. Almas Sayeed, Wichita senior and event organizer, said the events would include live music and a speaker from Women's Transitional Care Services. Campus and community organizations also will have information booths set up in the park.
"Men and women are separate because of the understanding that different issues affect different sexes." Saeed said.
Pre-march events will continue until 7:30 p.m., and speak-will begin at 8 p.m. Men will gather in South Park, 12th and Massachusetts streets, Sayeed said, and women will remain in Watson Park to discuss their opinions and experiences.
At 9:30 p.m., the women will begin their march down Massachusetts Street to meet the men in South Park.
The evening will end with the reading of nearly 30 demands.
"The list of demands asks that society at large work towards eradicating violence," Sayeed said.

New Japanese garden to honor sister city
A Japanese Garden will be dedicated tonight in honor of the 10-year anniversary of the sister city exchange between Lawrence and Hiratsuka, Japan.
The dedication begins at 5:30 p.m. at the park, which is next to the Douglas Coupty Historical Society at 11th and Massachusetts streets.
The garden includes a miniature 13-story pagoda and stone lantern, donated by the city of Hiratsuka, and stones, grasses and flowers from Kansas.
A delegation from Hiratsuka, including the mayor, will attend the dedication.
Lawrence Mayor Jim Henry said he was looking forward to renewing friendships he started last July when he led a Lawrence delegation to Hiratsuka. He said the people were very friendly, and he was glad to see the garden established downtown.
"it's a beautiful symbol that furthers our sister-city relationship," he said.

A central Kansas farmer finds flattened and charred chunks of debris. This isn't science fiction
Doug Wereb, a former space science educator at the Kansas Cosmosphere & Space Center in Hutchinson, was called on to identify the space junk. Wereb said the fragments of the Russian rocket were found by Rush County farmer Craig Rixon.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said the show on Friday, Oct. 13, was the fourth stage of a Russian proton rocket launched
Wereb said the largest piece recovered was about a foot-and-a-half long and 8 inches wide. A second piece was 10 inches long and about 6 inches wide. Numerous small fragments also were scattered on the ground.
Political advertising slots filling up fast
NATION
WASHINGTON — With advertising slots filling up like the Super Bowl, political parties and interest groups are paying up to three times the normal rate in hot markets. In some cases, they can't buy pre-election time at any price.
It's a quadrennial ad crunch that's tighter than ever, with more groups spending record dollars trying to influence elections through the airwaves.
In St. Louis, the Democratic National Committee now is paying 50 percent more for ads, compared to mid- September.
The hottest markets are in states such as Missouri, where the presidential race is tight and where there are close Senate or gubernatorial races, or where controversial issues are on the ballot.
A single commercial on the 11 p.m. news that might normally go for $4,000 now costs $5,500 or $6,000, said Larry Ceisler, media buyer in Philadelphia.
Scientists seek approval for engineered corn
WASHINGTON — Amid taco shell recalls and food-processing plant shutdowns, the government was asked yesterday to temporarily approve for human consumption a variety of genetically engineered corn that has slipped into the food supply.
The corn's developer, Aventis CropScience of Triangle Park, N.C., said data it submitted yesterday showed there was no potential for the corn, known as StarLink, to affect people who suffer from food allergies.
In 1998, the government rejected Aventis' original request to approve the corn for human consumption, approving it only for animal feed and industrial uses because the government's scientific advisers were uncertain whether it was an allergen.
EPA officials said they didn't expect to make a decision for at least several weeks.

Supply won't satisfy demand, holiday craze
Continued from page 1A
Wells said that getting the Playstation on opening day could be difficult. He estimated that SuperTarget, 3201 Iowa St., would sell out within a half hour and that a line of people would be waiting when the store opened at 8 a.m.
All of the hype might amaze some people, but Allen said it was all in a day's work.
"We've been through this kind of thing with the Furby," she said. "There's always one big item around the holiday season that people get excited about."
Nick Delgadillo, St. Louis sophomore, said he was excited about the Playstation 2 because of the new and improved games that would come out for the machine.
"It's supposed to be the best thing that's coming out right now." he said.
Although Delgadillo doesn't have the money to buy the system, he said he planned to buy it after Christmas.
"If I had money, I would be lining up with the rest of the people at 6 a.m. in the morning," he said.

more, also was excited for the Playstation 2's release. Thornton said even though he decided to wait until next year to buy the Playstation 2, he knew friends who had been on up to three different waiting lists for almost a year and a half.
"They are going to buy every Playstation that they can to pull a black-market move when Christmas time comes," he said.
But Thornton, like Delgadillo,
said he didn't have the $300 to
spend on the Playstation 2.
"If I had $300 allotted away a year ago and got on the waiting list, I would have taken off work tomorrow," Thornton said. "I would have been completely ready."

Faculty members discuss ways to improve libraries
writer@kansan.com
Bv Jason Krall
Kansan staff writer
Maintaining the quality of the libraries on campus is important as library staff members hope to provide more electronic resources for outside access, faculty members said yesterday.
KU Libraries has had two meetings this week in hopes of getting student and faculty input on a strategic plan that will guide the libraries' development during the next three years.
Two more meetings are planned, but about seven faculty members who attended a meeting yesterday wanted to make sure that Watson Library remains an "intellectual commons," even as its resources become easier to obtain from a home computer.
Wallace Johnson, professor of East Asian languages, said he was afraid that the cost of bringing more electronic resources to the library would mean less money for purchasing books.
Marianne Reed, senior systems specialist for KU Libraries and a member of its strategic planning steering committee, said funding for books would not be cut.
"There is a rumor going around that somehow
books are going to be sacrificed to fund electronics," Reed told faculty members at the meeting. "That rumor is not true."
Some suggested that improvements be made to the libraries to draw in more students.
Michele Eodice, director of the KU Writing Center, said she envisioned Watson Library as a more stimulating environment, with amenities such as a coffee and juice bar.
Johnson said students and faculty needed to be included on planning committees.
but keeo said the committee was comprised of library staff members only, and the committee would seek faculty and student input through open meetings and e-mail.
The library developed its last strategic plan in 1993, said librarian Jim Neely, chair of the committee. Funding sources for projects within the plan will be identified in later stages, but the University's next capital campaign, expected to begin seeking funds next fall, is one possible source, Neely said.
Another meeting for student input will be Monday at 3 p.m. in the Big 12 Room of the Kansas Union. The committee will seek more faculty input at a meeting tomorrow at 11:30 a.m. in the Frontier Room of the Burge Union.

Engineering class alters curriculum

Kansan staff writer
Engineering Communication to Non-Technical Populations, or ENGR 514/PHX 514, is a class that requires students to go to local elementary schools and conduct presentations. At the elementary schools, the class is called Go-Tech.
A course previously offered at the University of Kansas has been restructured to enhance the experience it provides for students.
Before the restructuring, KU students presented to individual fourth-, fifth- and sixthgrade classrooms. Now, they will present to elementary students in a mass assembly three times a week. And instead of presenting as individuals or duos, the KU students will present in larger groups.
Cheryl Cox, engineering administration coordinator and Go-Tech coordinator, said the class now was being offered to students in chemistry and physics, and chemical, civil and mechanical engineering. She said the course would be offered in the spring and would continue to be offered each semester.
"The students will develop presentations on their areas of discipline to be made to nontechnical audiences," she said. "Students will present their ideas in an informative and challenging but educational way, and it will be fun."
Katie Allen. Independence, Mo., junior and Go-Tech student coordinator, said students taking the class would benefit by presenting to the elementary school students.
"They will learn better by reteaching what they've already learned in a way that fourth-, fifth- and sixth-graders will understand," she said. "They will develop applications of what they've learned."
"They will go as interdisciplinary teams to present to the fourth., fifth- and sixth-grade groups." she said.
Cox said the schools involved were Riverside Elementary School and Pinckney Elementary School, but she was expecting more to sign up.
we're anticipating having a very good representation of schools in Lawrence," Cox said. "We hope to have all of them."

Perspective Appeasement a poor tactic in Middle East
"H ave no mercy on the Jews, no matter where they are, in any country. Fight them, wherever you are. Wherever you meet
them, kill them.'
Throughout the "peace process," we've heard the refrain time and again: If only the Israelis would make reasonable territorial and security concessions, Palestinian leaders would renounce violence as a political weapon, call off their range of terrorists, and they'd all live happily ever after.
I'll give you three guesses as to the source of these monstrous words. Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf? No. A Ku Klux Klan rally? No. Some neo-Nazi skin-head group? Wrong again. Actually, this is from a sermon given at the Zayed bin Sultan Aal Nahyan mosque in Gaza (translated into English by the Middle East Media Research Institute) and broadcast last week on state-controlled television by Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority. Still think there's any hope for Middle East peace?
Beginning with the 1993 Oslo Accords,

Beginning with the 19 th there have been intense international efforts, pushed by President Clinton, to broker a lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians.

rorists, and they'd all live happily ever after. Surely if we were dealing with two sincere groups of people, both of whom desired peaceful co-existence and could be trusted to keep their words and abide by the treaties they've signed, Middle East peace might be a reality today. Unfortunately, one side — the Palestinians — does not want peace. They don't want to coexist with Israel. Their leaders are pathologically dishonest and some of the most vicious and deprived anti-Semites since the Third Reich. They will accept nothing less than the complete annihilation of the state of Israel — just read their own words.
Everything from Holocaust denial to fabricated stories of Jewish atrocities regularly drip from the mouths of Arab leaders and are popular topics in the state-controlled media. From the July 2, 1998, edition of the official Palestinian newspaper, Al Hayat Al-Jadeeda: "The truth is that the persecution of the Jews is a deceitful myth which the Jews have labeled the Holocaust and have exploited to get sympathy."
Also from the above-mentioned sermon: "O brother believers, the criminals, the terrorists are the Jews, who have butchered our children, orphaned them, widowed our women and desecrated our holy places and sacred sites. They are the terrorists. They are the ones who must be butchered and killed."
And from the February 22, 2000, edition of the official Syrian paper *Al-Thaura*: "Israel has revealed itself as an entity steeped in racism, hate and state-sponsored terrorism, which has surpassed even the Nazis in its criminal acts of murder, destruction and devastation, and in its disdain for humanity."
It is simply impossible to engage in peace negotiations and make treaties with Arab leaders who poison their airwaves and their people with such abominable words, and are, in the process, sowing the seeds of a second Holocaust. Be assured, there are powerful people in the Arab world looking to finish what was begun at Auschwitz, and they can't be bargained with, reasoned with or coddled into changing their minds. They must be opposed at every turn.
Winston Churchill once defined an appeaser as one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last. We know what happened after British prime minister Neville Chamberlain's 1938 pact with Hitler at Munich. If Israel's prime minister, Ehud Barak, probed by President Clinton, continues his appeasement tactics, slicing up and giving away more and more of Israel in the false hope of securing peace, he and his Jewish brethren will surely be devoured by the insatiable Palestinian crocodile. The only question is when. Never, I think, has the adage been more appropriate: Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it.

Recently, however, I've been inundated with breaking news from Israel, and press releases about declining Palestinian-Israeli relations clog my e-mail box. Because of my position as the head of a Jewish organization, people may assume that I have a hardline, one Israeli stance.
While some members of the Jewish community might hold such a position, I do not agree with it myself. I cannot say that Israel has done nothing wrong and assert that the conflict in the Middle East is one-sided.
P. R. S. S.
In Israel, the name of the game is co-existence. Palestinians and Israelis share a plot of land in the middle of the desert the size of New Jersey.

pjinion@kansan.com
When I was in Israel last winter, a Palestinian cab driver struck up a conversation with me as we drove from the New City in Jerusalem to the gates of the Old City.
Israelis as tension mounts near their cities. I also understand the Palestinians' fears of brutality and isolation in their towns.
"You've grown up in America," he said,
"You've been trained to hate us. Well, I can tell you for sure, we don't want violence any more than you do. Nobody wants more death. We cry when we see bloodshed, just like you."
Now, as my father prepares to visit his home in Israel, I cannot help but feel the same anxiety that many Palestinians may be feeling. I do not care about victory or conquest. I care about my family's safety and about establishing peace in the Middle East to assure that safety. The violence seething on both sides of the fighting lines moves Palestinians and Israelis farther away from benevolent ends, making the chances of stabilizing the peaceful co-existence necessary in such a small country less and less possible.
As I stepped out of the car into a street bustling with Muslims and Jews brushing against one another on their work to work, prayer or home. I sensed for the first time the delicate co-habitation of the ancient city.
While it is often said that for every two Jews, there are three opinions, I know that many Jews share my hope for peace. Although our paths to this peace may differ, we can at least agree on our desires to end the killing and suffering in the Middle East.

Editorial
Halls join Rock Chalk tradition
Residence halls should be commended for submitting notebooks to the revue.
The Rock Chalk Revue is a University of Kansas tradition. For the past decade, it has been dominated by the greek community, but involvement is not restricted to it.
The revue is actually classified as a campus-wide philanthropy. During the 52 years that the Rock Chalk Revue has existed, residence halls and scholarship halls also have taken part in the community fund-raiser.
Residents of Templin, Hashinger and Lewis halls should be applauded for their recent decision to apply. The battle ahead is an uphill one. The participants' goal is to team up with another group, and write and produce a 20-minute original musical together. Teams are responsible for their own costumes and scenery.
Although non-greek living organizations have a clear disadvantage when it comes to available resources such as funding, they are to be commended for competing. All involved pour their blood, sweat and tears into the project
The application and selection process is very competitive. Out of the more than 10 teams that prepare a musical, only five are chosen to participate in the actual show after rigorous months of preparation.
One of the main objectives of the Rock Chalk Revue is to accumulate community service hours. Awards are presented at the final showing to those groups who have contributed the most. All profits from the shows are donated to the Douglas County United Wav.
By deciding to get involved this year, the residence halls are setting out to alter recent Rock Chalk Revue trends. The greek community is to be commended for upholding the tradition, but it is time to once again make it a campus-wide event.

Letters to the Editor Free For All useless facilitates pointless banter
Several months after its debut, I'm still uncertain as to the point of the Free For All feature. No person can present a cogent argument or opinion in the 20 seconds alotted to do so. This necessarily results in, at best, trite or inane statements of observation ("Don't drink orange juice after you brush your teeth,") or questions ("Why is my belly button lint always blue?")) and at worst, off-the-cuff, knee-jerk political statements, both "conservative" and "liberal," regarding issues that deserve significantly more careful thought and consideration.
Is the point of this feature to amuse the University community with the superficiality and simple-mindedness of our members or to shock us with the proof that we are so? Or is it, perhaps, simply to cater to our vanity, allowing some two dozen or so of us our 20 seconds of fame each day?
Political, social and economic dialogue is lacking on this campus and should be encouraged. However, 20-second sound bytes do not answer this need. Please consider replacing this feature with an expanded editorial section so that some of the very timely and important issues raised in Free For All get the space, time and attention they truly deserve. At the very least, consider adding the disclaimer "For amusement purposes only, not to be taken seriously."

Obscene sidewalk graffiti deserved to be removed
You want an apology for having your pornographic graffiti cleaned from our public sidewalks? You ought to give us an apology for having put it there in the first place.
I'll grant that our principle of freedom of expression subjects us to having to listen to a lot of foolishness. That's the price society pays for freedom of expression. But there are limits. Do what you want in the privacy of your own home. We honestly don't care. But when you come out into public, show some discretion.
If you aren't ready to assume personal responsibility for the foolishness you subject the rest of us to, perhaps you aren't yet ready to leave the protection of your parents' wings. Pay the bills for cleanings these sidewalks, then tell me about your First Amendment privileges.

Voters should choose based on politics, not personality
After watching the presidential debates, I get the feeling that Americans are tired of the consummate politician Al Gore. They apparently prefer a Washington outsider, someone they can relate to such as George W. Bush.
This has led me to an analogous question: If you needed heart surgery, would you chose as your cardiologist an expert who has worked in our nation's best hospitals for a majority of their life? Or would you choose a charismatic, yet inexperienced, surgeon who has worked at the local clinic for a few years?
Somehow, politicians are trying to sell us personalities instead of policies. They try to "relate" to us and make us feel like they're one of "us." The bottom line is that they are not one of us, and as nice or charismatic as George W. Bush or Al Gore appear to be, they are still politicians with whom we would be lucky only to shake their hand, much less share a conversation or a cup of coffee. Enough with the personality polls. I want issues, facts and figures not a "friend," in Washington.
We hire teachers to teach our children.
lawyers to defend our rights and cardiologists to operate on our heart — charismatic or not. So why don't we want to hire a politician to make our policies? (And here's the cheese): The heart of our nation needs an experienced cardiologist, and not just any old doctor will do.

Abortion drug may increase number of overall abortions
The licensing of RU-466 gives women and men even more access to terminating the lives of their unborn children. Many argue the need for greater access, but few will argue the need for more abortions.
People on both sides of the issue seem to support programs that will make abortions less common (i.e. adoptions). However, the logical consequence of free, unobstructed abortion will be more abortions. RU-486 may lower the number of surgical abortions, but it will not lower the overall number of abortions. People need to be aware of the distinction between surgical and non-surgical abortions as statistics begin to come out in the years following the RU-486 decision. People on both sides of the issue will be more disaapointed if there is a rise in the number of abortions.
If the numbers do rise, will this be cause to celebrate true freedom? Or will it be a cause for remorse over one of the greatest human rights violations still widely accepted in a country renowned for its human rights stance?

Fire alarm irritates residents but should be handled gracefully
Since last night's sleep was disturbed by the piercing sirens and flashing lights of the fire alarm, I was hoping to take a nice nap this afternoon. I slipped into my most comfortable boxes and a T shirt and snuggled into my bed. Dreams of Mat Damon serving me strawberry lemonade on the beach were just beginning to make their way into my subconscious when a shrieking noise knocked me off the top bunk and on the floor.
After severely beating my alarm clock, I came to the grievous conclusion that this was yet another fire alarm. My fire alarm-designated outfit was waiting for me on my computer chair. I threw on the clothes and joined the grumpy herd down eight flights of stairs.
The only thing more annoying than the sound of a fire alarm is the bitching, cursing and complaining that never fail to accompany it.
"This sucks. Why does this always have to happen to me?"
Gee, I feel sorry for you there. I know the other 900 residents of McCollum love to make you personally the victim of the alarm.
My other favorite is, "I swear, if this happens one more time..." You'll what? Move out? Oh dear, what will we do without your words of inspiration and encouragement during times of an alarm?
My point is this: Fire alarms suck but get over it. The authorities are doing the best they can.
I'm tired of listening to you complain. Everybody in McCollum has to go through the same thing you're going through so stop feeling sorry for yourself. Try to look at it as a mandatory party. Everyone's there so have a good time.

Truth about sidewalk chalk cleansing should be revealed
Unless I misunderstood it, Tuesday's article regarding the chalk messages erased from campus sidewalks appears to contain a blatant lie
According to the article by Meghan Bainum, Facilities Operations director Doug Raint claims that the only writings removed were those on the walls and steps around Wescoe Hall.
However, if you have classes in Wescoe you may notice that there are messages on the walls and steps from as far back as August. It does not appear to me as if anything was removed in that area.
from a University official.
In addition, there must have been hundreds of students on October 11 who saw a big green KU water truck driving around campus spraying every chalk message off of nearly every sidewalk.
If I am misinterpreting Riat's comments, then I apologize. Otherwise it seems as though he is not being quite honest with all of us. Some students want an apology from the University; I just want the truth.

KU graduate asserts Gore is the best choice for rural areas
I am a farmer from northwest Kansas, and I support AI Gore for president. These are the reasons why:
Interest rates. Al Gore will not squander our $200 billion federal surplus on tax relief for the wealthy. He will pay down our national debt, and this will lower interest rates for everyone.
Ethanol. It is difficult to believe that G.W. Bush and his running mate will support ethanol because of their strong ties to big oil. Iowa's Sen, Tom Harkin said, "If Bush is elected, you can kiss ethanol goodbye," but Gore, on the other hand, is "a strong supporter of ethanol and other renewable fuels."
Environment. Farmers are our nation's greatest environmentalists. They know the importance of the environment because they depend on it for their livelihood. AI Gore will assist farmers and ranchers who voluntarily practice environmentally sound land management practices. AI Gore will expand the CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) to at least 40 million acres and will increase funding levels and acreage for EQIP (Environment Quality Incentive Program).
Freedom to farm. Al Gore believes that the 1996 Farm Bill known as "Freedom to Farm" is seriously flawed. He wants to increase countercyclical supports to family farmers while maintaining market-oriented crop planting flexibility. He also would like to increase loan support for on-the-farm storage to increase marketing options for family farmers.
Anti-Trust. Al Gore supports the creation of the Special Council for Agriculture within the Department of Justice to focus more attention on agribusiness mergers. The megacorporations that sell to farmers and buy their products have grown so powerful that the farmer's share of the food sales dollar has shrunk to the lowest level in history.
Global Trade. Al Gore wants to increase free trade by removing barriers, tariffs and unfair trade laws. He has pledged to never use food as a unilateral sanction or diplomatic weapon.
Education. Children are the future of this country. Al Gore wants to increase spending on public education, and this will be an excellent investment. Al Gore's proposals will especially help rural areas because our tax base for funding education continues to decline. G.W. Bush's plan for vouchers will hurt public education and would be absolutely worthless for rural areas because private schools are rare, and they are not cost effective.
Al Gore is the best choice for our country and rural America.

Russian military plane crashes
75 people feared dead after bad weather forces an attempted landing
The Associated Press
TBILLSI, Georgia — A Russian Defense Ministry plane with at least 75 passengers and crew slammed into a mountain while trying to land in bad weather yesterday evening in the country of Georgia. Officials said everyone on board was feared dead.
A search and rescue team sent to the crash site about 15 miles east of the city of Batumi found pieces of the plane and scorched earth, Georgia's Emergency Situations Department said. Russia's RTR television reported that bodies had been found and showed footage of flaming pieces of wreckage.
The cause of the crash was not immediately known.
The plane veered off course on approach in difficult weather conditions, said Alexander Silagadze, head of the civil aviation agency Sakaeronavigatsiya.
It was unclear exactly how many people were on board. Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry said the plane carried 82 people — 11 crew members and 71 passengers — but Russian military officials said there were 11 crew members and 64 passengers, the Interfax news agency reported.
russian military officials said the plane, an I-18 transport, was at an altitude of 5,300 feet near Mount Tirva when communications with it were lost. Interfax reported. Both military and civilian personnel were aboard, the agency said.
Mount Tirava means "Weeping Mountain" in Georgian, RTR said.
Interfax said passengers aboard the plane included servicemen and their wives and children returning from vacation. Although Russia and Georgia became independent countries when the Soviet Union broke up in 1991, Russianstill maintains troops in Georgia.
A representative for the Georgian emergency department said on condition of anonymity that it was unlikely anyone survived.
The plane was flying from the Chkalovsky military airfield outside Moscow to Batumi, home to a Russian military base. It was a mail plane that made twice-monthly flights along the route, military officials said.
The Russian emergencies ministry was sending a plane carrying a search and rescue team, and an investigation committee had been formed.
Russia is in the process of removing its troops and equipment from two bases in Georgia and is negotiating withdrawal from two more. Equipment from the bases is being shipped through Batumi.
The II-18 is a Russian-made, four-engine turboprop. In 1997, an II-18 owned by a private Russian carrier crashed on a charter flight while trying to take off in Johannesburg, South Africa. All five people survived, and the reason for the crash was not determined.
The II-18 model, which can seat up to 100 first flew in 1957, and production ceased in 1970. The plane was used as a submarine hunter and airborne command post by the Russian military and as a passenger plane by the Soviet national airline Aeroflot.
Pentagon official resigns says he warned of attacks
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A Pentagon intelligence expert on terrorism in the Persian Gulf has told Congress that he warned of possible terrorist attacks on U.S. forces there before the bombing of the USS Cole, but higher-ups failed to pass the information to military commanders, senators said yesterday.
The intelligence official, whose name was not disclosed, resigned in protest the day after the Cole attack Oct. 12 in Yemen, Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing.
Roberts said the resignation letter was given Monday to the Senate Intelligence Committee. Although it is not classified, the Armed Services Committee said it would not make it public.
Yemeni authorities investigating the bombing, meanwhile, have detained a Yemeni carpenter and a Somali woman. Yemeni sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said yesterday the carpenter

confessed to helping two men modify a small boat to carry explosives, and the woman confessed to buying the car they used to haul the boat to shore, paying for it with money the two men provided. Charges had not been filed against either person, the sources said.
Roberts said the resignation letter referred to an intelligence assessment in June that apparently predicted a terrorist attack in the Gulf.
Roberts said he wanted to know whether the reference to potential for additional acts of terrorism in coming weeks played a role in last weekend's decision to put U.S. forces in Bahrain and Gatar on high alert.

Aggies outdig Jayhawks
Bv Sarah Warren
By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Floor burns aren't just for basketball players.
Last night at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center, the Kansas volleyball team found itself skidding across the floor, fighting for each ball launched over the net by No. 25 Texas A&M. However, the 'Hawks slid to a 3-0 loss to the Aggies, their second shutout by A&M this season.
"Maybe we took a small step forward tonight," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "It's a moral victory. It seemed like they were a bit more hardworking in the end."
Indeed, the Aggies' Erin Gibson recorded 17 kills and 17 digs, proving to be A&M's super woman. Gibson is a big reason why the Aggies are No.1.
in the Big 12 Conference in both kills and digs. She led the Aggies in digs, followed by Christy Clark and Jenna Moscovic, who each chipped in 14.
"They're a ranked team; they're going to bomb some balls," said Jennifer Kraft, Kansas sophomore defensive specialist.
"But whenever we would smack the ball, they were always on the ground getting it," Bechard said.
Kraft and teammate Danielle Geronymo, senior middle blocker, led the Jayhawks with 14 and 13 digs, respectively.
The Aggies were so deadly in both categories that they were easily able to drop the ball on Kansas' side of the floor while keeping it off their own patch of court. And their strong defense and offense showed as Kansas scored 18 fewer kills and 12 fewer digs than A&M.
"We're there in heart and
there in spirit; we just have
to put the ball away. We just let the leads slip away."
Jennifer Kraft
Kansas defensive specialist
"I thought we played pretty hard." Bechard said. "We didn't win, but we played hard. A&M made the plays, and that's why they're ranked."
The Jayhawks made war on the court, however, extending rallies until the ball switched possession up to 10 times.
"We played a lot better than we played the last time we met them, and we certainly played better than the
Senior outside hitter Nancy Bell concurred.
"We haven't fought that hard in a long time," Bell said. "It's frustrating when you play a three-game match for two hours. It's frustrating to come out on bottom."
The loss to the Aggies dropped the Jayhawks to 12-9 overall and 3-9 in the Big 12. And the 'Hawks will have a tough time rebounding for their next match Saturday night against No.1 Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are undefeated and have already dropped the 'Hawks once this season — a 3-0 defeat Sept. 20 at the Horejsi Center.
"We're there in heart and there in spirit; we just have to put the ball away," Kraft said. "We just let the leads slip away."

Kareem High remembers very little about his first time in Lubbock, Texas.
He's been back to Lubbock numerous times to visit relatives since he moved from there as an infant. He's seen the vast Texas Tech campus that is the centerpoint of the town, much as the University of Kansas is of Lawrence. But Texas Tech, Kansas' opponent Saturday, did not have a strong enough lure to hook High.
But there was a short frame of time when he did.
"I was I when I moved from there." High said, "so I don't really remember a lot about it. I've been back a bunch of times, but never really thought about playing there."
"He made it sound like a good idea," High said of the vounner Dykes' persuasions.
But there was a short frame of time when he did. After graduating from high school in Garland, Texas, High attended Navarro Junior College. He was a friend of Spike Dykes' son, who worked at the school. Dykes was the Red Raiders coach who built a strong team that received national attention as an up-and-coming program. High was on his way to being named a second team juco AllAmerica, so he had some options — Texas Tech being one of them.
High is second on the team with 52 tackles, and he's also forced three fumbles while gaining some slowmotion time on the Memorial Stadium MegaVision board for the ferocious hits he's laid on opposing receivers.
But as tough as leaving Texas might have been at first, High has succeeded as a player at Kansas. He started all 12 games last year and has started all seven games this year as the Jayhawks have rallied their season to 4-3, winning their last two consecutive games.

Kansas' secondary has shown a great deal of improvement throughout the season. The Jayhawks will play Texas Tech in its next home game Saturday. Kansan file photo
"We've been working a lot harder," High said.
"That's made us a lot better."
Of any unit, it's been the secondary that has shown the most improvement. Along with High's arrival last season, the unit gained free safety Carl Nesmith from the juco ranks, as well as then-freshman cornerback Andrew Davison and then-sophomore Quincy Roe.
High and Nesmith, despite their personality differences, rely upon each other as Kansas' last line of defense as the safeties. Both admit they are very different from each other, in including in the way they carry themselves. Nesmith does more talking. High is less likely to confront the opponent. But maybe Nesmith's smunk is rubbing off.
"Don't let Kareem fool you," Nesmith said.
The yin and yang of Kansas are also coming together on nicknames. Nesmith has been known as the Butcher for a while now.
"A few days ago," Nesmith said, "Kareem was calling himself the Baker."
dlestick maker anytime soon, but High is not as concerned with image as much as winning Saturday and being one victory away from reaching a bowl game. "This win would really give us a lot of confidence." High said, "A lot."
No word on whether they'll go searching for a can-
would give plenty of High's Texas relatives something to remember.
"I hope they'll be watching and cheering for me," High said.
And while the win would not come in Lubbock, it

Axtell in good health, looking forward to playing
Medical condition to remain mystery throughout season
By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Luke Axtell is a straight-shooting, three-point artist who has skills in dodging reporters' questions.
Such was the case with the annual Kansas media day, where the following exchange occurred.
Luke, why did you start playing the guitar?
GIRLS, he said. Does it work?
12 Conference this season?
"Girls." he said.
Does it work?
Sports Columnist
"I'm doing okay," he replied.
In fact, only one question could rattle Axtell. It was the question about his health and the still-undisclosed medical condition that kept him out of the final 14 games of last season.
"It doesn't matter," Axtell said. "If Kevin Garnett was out there, then we would have to beat him."
What will the graduation of Marcus Fizer and Chris Mihm do to the Big
Indeed, the hardest part of having an undisclosed medical condition is everyone asking to disclose it. Still, Axtell tried to stay positive throughout all the questions about his health, and Kansas coach Roy Williams applauded Axtell.
Axtell started squirming in his chair, and his eyes started to wander.
"I worked hard over the off season to get healthy, and I feel like I have," Axtell said. "I'm in perfect health."
"He's got a great attitude," Williams said. "He feels much better about everything. That positive outlook really helps him."
While Axtell's condition will remain undisclosed, at least until the end of the season, he said he hoped everyone would know about his shooting skills after this season. Last year, before the illness, Axtell showed flashes of brilliance. He led the Jayhawks in scoring in a win against Nebraska, and he shot 39 percent from three-point range.
Still, Williams identified Axtell as one of the team's main question marks heading into the season. Axtell, meanwhile, wants to put all those questions to rest.
"If people are surprised, then I won't be," Axtell said. "I know what I can do, and that's my goal — to do what I can do. I didn't do that last year. I didn't do what I was capable of."
Axtell insists he can improve on last season's performance. In fact, he already has a reputation as a big-time scorer in the Big 12, as he averaged 13.3 points per game for Texas in the 1997-98 season before transferring to Kansas.
But Axtell prefers not to look back. He chooses to focus on the future instead.
"I'm looking forward to getting back on the court," Axtell said. "I'm ready to be a contributor to this team."
Kansas Recruiting Update
Jayhawk recruit Keith Langford will visit Cincinnati this weekend.
Langford, a 6-foot-4 guard forward from Crowley, Texas, told Insider's Report that the Bearcats had entered the race for his commitment. Previously, Langford said he would choose between Kansas, Oklahoma and Bavlor.

Two and 0 with four to go. That one simple phrase is the only thing on the minds of many Kansas football fans who are aching to go on a December bowl trip this winter.
Texas Tech win, bowl game ahead for football team
The "so-called" new season has been a success thus far, despite the weak competition the Jayhawks have faced in Missouri and Colorado. Sure, Colorado is having a down year, but I proudly admit to rushing the field after that 23-15 victory.
Even though I despise the Nebraska Cornhuskers and know how they struggled to a 24-17 victory in Lawrence last season, I realize that the outcome of this year's contest will not be pretty. In fact, it may have a plot similar to the 52-13 K-State debacle. Even the Texas Longhorns will probably have a field day when Major Applewhite, Roy Williams and company stumped into Lawrence Saturday, Nov. 11.
Because of these two expected losses, I have been doing two things in my free time — wishing that 'Hawks had Oklahoma State and Baylor on this year's schedule and rounding up my Ellsworth Hall buddies for a road trip to a decisive season finale in Ames, Iowa.
As for all you cynics who are on the Jayhawks because K-State only beat Texas Tech by five points last weekend, comparing margins of victory and wins and losses against other teams has never been one of my major concerns.
Or course, everyone is going to ask me, "Why are you going to spend your time driving through the cornfields of Iowa if the Jawhaws can't beat Texas Tech?"
If I did factor in such things, I would tell all of you that the Jayhawks defeated Alabama-Birmingham, which upset Louisiana State, which shocked Tennessee in overtime, which struggled with but won against Southern Mississippi. The Golden Eagles of Southern Miss, then easily defeated Alabama, which beat South Carolina and then defeated Mississippi State, which was victorious against national powerhouse Florida.
If I were to forward this obscure fact to coach Terry Allen, he would probably have a stranger look on his face than he did when a television reporter asked him why fans were attempting to take down the south end zone goal post Saturday.
At any rate, many fans were optimistic against the likes of Colorado and Missouri, so what is it going take to pick our heads up and realize that Texas Tech's only Big 12 Conference victory has come against league doormat Baylor. Does one good effort against K-State really suggest that the Red Raiders are for real?
If that is the case, shouldn't everyone tip their hats to last season's 4-7 Iowa State team that lost to the Wildcats by one touchdown.
While Texas Tech has not been impressive this season, I will give the Red Raiders credit for two things: a strong defense and the ability to be competitive on the road. On the other hand, with home games against New Mexico, Utah State, North Texas and Louisiana-Lafayette, one contemplates whether the Red Raiders consult with cupcake scheduler Bill Snyder before issuing invitations to non-conference foes.
The Jayhawks will play Texas Tech at Memorial Stadium where they are 3-1 this season. A new attitude of Rock Chalk in the air is unlikely to be stopped by anyone short of a conference powerhouse, which the Red Raiders are not.
my prediction: Kansas 28 Texas Tech 13 and an eventual trip to the Galleryfurniture.com Bowl in Houston, which brings me to my next question.
Does anyone know of any good restaurants in Ames or Houston?

'Hawks begin season vs. Aggies
By Katie Teske
sports@kansan.com
Sports Writer
The Kansas and Texas A&M swimming and diving teams will see a lot of each other in the next few days.
The Kansas men's and women's teams start their seasons today against the Aggies in a dual meet at Robinson Natatorium. They will play host to Iowa State, Missouri, Texas and Texas A&M again at the Big 12 Conference Relays tomorrow.
The Relays will feature an all-relay swimming format. Distances range from 25 meters to 500 meters.
Last week, the men's and women's teams had an intrasquad meet. The team divided and competed against itself.
Doug Dickinson, men's swimming
coach, said he used the competition to help set the lineup for today's meet. He tried to use the knowledge he gained from that meet as a barometer to see where the team was.
He said the meets would show who would step up and swim well this season.
"The Relays are a strange meet in that we will never swim some of these relays during the season," Dickinson said. "But the bottom line is that we need to race and find out who stands up and is a leader in the pool."
He is looking to sophomore Brian Soria and senior team captains Jon Reyes and Chad Sunderland for that leadership. He said freshmen Dustin Chalasant and Dustin Robbins could also
make a difference in the meets.
Texas won both the men's and women's competition in last year's Big 12 Relays in Ames, Iowa. Kansas placed second on the women's side and fourth on the men's side.
Women's coach Cathy Burgess agreed that today's event would be helpful.
"It's a good chance to see everyone swim a lot of events, but as a team," she said. "It's great to face the conference in our home pool."
The women's team beat Texas A&M two years ago at the dual meet at Kansas and lost to them last year in College Station, Texas. Burgess said the Jayhawks' focus for the dual meet was to swim as well as they could and as fast as they could.
SWIMMING SCHEDULE
Burgess said nine freshmen along with
9:00 n.m. — 4x25 Medley, 3x100 Fly,
3x100 Breast, 3x100 Back, 3x500
Free, 4x100 Free, 4x50 Medley
1:30 p.m. — 4x50 Free, 4x100
Medley, 4x100 IM, 4x200 Free, 3x50
Fly, 3x50 Breast, 3x50 Back, 200-400-
100 IM, 4x25 Fly,
the returning talent would give the team solid depth. Four of the returning upper-classmen went to the Olympic trials.
The dual meet will begin at 3 p.m. today, and the relays will be split into two sessions. The first half will kick off at 9 a.m. and the second half is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.

Chiefs' Grbac expects to play against Seattle
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Quarterback Elvis Grab took almost half the snaps in practice yesterday and expects to be ready for Kansas City's game Sunday at Seattle.
Grbac, who is having the best season of his career, injured his right elbow last week in the second half of the Chiefs' 54-34 victory against St. Louis at Arrowhead
stainless. He underwent an MRI on Tuesday, which concluded it was only bruised.
"By game time, I'll be fine," said Grbac, who has thrown at least two touchdown passes in each of the last five games and has a total of 16 this season.
He said the elbow had good range of motion yesterday and that his availability "is not an issue." Coach Gunther Cunningham agreed.
"He's very competitive," Cunningham said. "I don't think people realize how tough he is. He's not some 6-foot guy. He's 6-5 and 24. He knows what he's done, and he wants to continue to do that."
The Chiefs (4-3) listed 10 players, including eight starters, on their injury list yesterday following their bruising victory against the previously undefeated Rams.
But the only ones missing practice were wide receiver Sylvester Morris, who has an injured shoulder, and defensive lineman Eric Hicks, who is out 4-6 weeks with a knee injury.
Grbac took about 45 percent of the team's snaps yesterday in practice.
"The idea was to rest his arm and get the swelling out." Cunningham said. "He looked pretty good. I would expect him to play."
The seanawks, who lost in Kansas City on a Monday night 24-17 earlier this year, figure they'll see Grbac and not Warren Moon, the 43-year-old backup who was 3-0-3 and led two scoring drives against the Rams.
"From what I hear and read, I think Elvis will play," said Seattle coach Mike Holmgren. "He's a tough guy and he wants to play. I know he hurt his elbow, but I expect to see him."
Just last season, Trent Green was supposed to be The Man in St. Louis. Then, in the story everyone knows, a knee injury, in preseason knocked Green out for the year and allowed former
If Moon winds up starting, he will be a familiar face in Husky Stadium. Moon, who played his college football at Washington, spent two years with the Seahawks in 1997 and 1998. He signed with the Chiefs as a free agent to Grbac's backup in 1999.
Warner sidelined by injured pinky
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams can only hope this backup quarterback turns out as well as the last one.

He said the offense would be the same. It is the same system that was in place when he was supposed to lead the team last year.
"That was the offense that was in place and we were running effectively then," Green said.
emerge and lead the Rams to a Super Bowl title.
After an awkwardly snapped ball sent Warner to the sidelines in Kansas City, Green demonstrated he could still handle the system he was once supposed to direct.
Now it's Green stepping in for Warner, who was on his way to a second historic season when he broke the little finger on his throwing hand last week in a loss to Kansas City.
He completed 15-of-21 passes for 205 yards and three touchdowns. It wasn't enough, however, to overcome the Rams' poor defensive showing, and the Chiefs won 54-34.
After last Sunday's game, Warner said he hoped to return in one week. When doctors said he would not throw for three weeks, Warner said he would play in "three weeks and a day."
Wednesday, Warner said he's "just fortunate that it's only going to be four weeks, and I'll be back out there."
It's a reversal of last season's story, but Green doesn't expect much to change.
Losing stars won't slow down Big 12 women's basketball

But that isn't the case.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. It would be safe to say a shake up might occur at the top of the Big 12 Conference after losing a class of players to the WNBA including Kansas star forward Lynn Pride as well as Texas' Edwinna Brown, Iowa State's Stacy Frese, Nebraska's Nicole Kubik and Kansas State's Olga Firsova.

Marian Washington has a simple answer why teams such as Iowa State and Texas remain at the top of the conference.
"It's a great indicator of the kinds of coaches we have in this league," she said.
Washington said despite the losses, another crop of talent was waiting to replace the the seniors.
"We're still going to be a very strong conference," she said.
Trivia Answer:
New York Yankees
Texas Tech coach Marsha Sharp said that it was difficult to be the elite in the conference, but teams had better be ready to play if it wanted to keep its positions.
"This is a pretty unforgiving conference," she said. "There are some pretty great programs in the Big 12."
So what happens to the teams that are on the edge of the conference elite? They have to scrap and claw its way into the top spots.
"I think the bottom of the league is catching up quickly." Paul Sanderford
While it may be an exclusive group with Texas, Oklahoma, Iowa State and Kansas at the top of the Big 12, the gap between last and first is closing.
"I think the bottom of the league is catching up quickly," said Nebraska coach Paul Sanderford. "Protect your home floor and steal a couple on the road will mean playing in March."
It may allow the conference to get six teams in the NCAA tournament, but the lack of success those teams have had results in a lack of respect around the country.
Nebraska coach
No Big 12 school has advanced to the Final Four since the league was formed, and it will take a team qualifying to give the conference the recognition it wants and deserves.
Colorado coach Ceal Barry said, "They don't welcome you with open arms."
However, Texas coach Jody Conradt does not agree. She said the conference should not rest all its hopes for credibility on the Final Four.
And the Big 12 hopes to have a team that gets that lucky play sooner rather than later.
She added that when it got down to the Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight rounds, it often was the team that got a lucky play that won.

Yankees win, catch 3-1 lead in Series Strawberry jailed
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees wasted no time sending a message: first pitch, first inning, home run.
Jeter led off with a drive over the left-field fence and the Yankees led the rest of the way, beating the New York Mets 3-2 last night in Game 4. The victory moved the Yankees within one victory of their third-straight World Series championship.
Derailed a day earlier, the Yankees got right back on track in taking a 3-1 lead in this Subway Series. Jeter honored and tripled, and Mariano Rivera finished off 4 L/3 scoreless innings by the Yankees bullpen.
A sellout crowd of 55,290 at Shea
Stadium seemed much more subdued than Game 3, possibly because of a much larger presence of Yankees fans.
The ballpark figures to be a lot louder — either way — tonight when the Yankees try to become the first team since the 1972-74 Oakland Athletics to win three titles in a row.
Yankees
Andy Pettite will start Game 5 against the Mets' Al Leiter. Of the prior 40 teams to take a 3-1 lead in the World Series, 34 have gone on to win the championship.
Mike Piazza's two-run homer pulled the Mets within 3-2 in the third inning, and
there was no more scoring as both managers made early moves to the bullpen.
Yankees starter Denny Neagle was pulled after 4 2/3 innings, with David Cone coming in to retire Plazza on a pop-up to end the fifth.
Reliever Jeff Nelson pitched 1 1/3 innings and was credited with
Mets
the win, Mike Stanton struck out the only two batters he faced and Rivera pitched two innings for his first save of the series.
Losing pitcher Bobby J. Jones was lifted after five innings. Relievers Glendon Rusch, John Franco and Armando Benitez kept the Yankees from breaking away.
The Yankees scored single runs in each of the first three innings. They did it without a contribution from cleanup man Bernie Williams, who was hitless in four at-bats and dropped to 0-for-15 in the Series.
Jeter's home run in the first came with many fans still getting settled in.
It was a stunning blow, and only the eighth time a World Series game had started with a home run, and the first since Rickey Henderson did it for Oakland in 1989.
In the second, Paul O'Neill tripled for the second straight day — after not hitting any since July 23, 1999 — and, following an intentional walk to Jorge Posada, scored on Scott Brosius' sacrifice fly.
Outcome of Nebraska-Oklahoma game crucial
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Frank Solich isn't concerned about where the top-ranked Cornhuskers are in the Bowl Championship Series ratings.
Being No. 1 in the BCS as well as the polls certainly helps, but Solich said he wouldn't worry about it because there are at least four more games to go, starting with No. 3 Oklahoma on Saturday.
"I've got really no control over the BCS," Solich said Tuesday. "If we play well, if we win, the BCS takes care of itself."
The BCS, designed to bring college football a national championship game, will see its top two teams paired against each other earlier than expected this season. Oklahoma is ranked No.2 in the BCS. Saturday's loser will need some
help to get back into the national championship race.
"Losing sleep over where you are at in the BCS rankings or losing sleep that
you're at the top of the BCS rankings probably doesn't do you any good." Solich said. "There's a lot of things in this profession that you lose sleep over, and so
you don't really try to throw any more into that."
Nebraska is coming off a 59-0 shutout of Baylor that could have been a whole lot worse if Solich had not pulled most of his starters by halftime. That game
followed a 56-3 victory at Texas Tech. The two-week point total is the most for the Huskers since they scored 122 in wins against Missouri and Iowa State in
1997, the last time they won a national championship.
Receiver Matt Davison, a freshman on the '97 team, said the team's attitude was a lot like it was three years ago. He
Q
said the team was confident but not cocky, which would help the team.
Nebraska-Oklahoma goes back to the days of the Big Eight Conference, which usually came down to the two teams in a game to decide who would play in the
Orange Bowl. The conference has expanded to the Big 12, but Nebraska-Oklahoma again has Orange Bowl ramifications. The Jan. 3 game is the BCS title matchup.
Therebirth of the old rivalry is not lost on Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch, who grew up in Omaha and remembers the previous Sooners-Huskers games with national title implications.
"With the schedules changing year after year and not being able to play the same teams again and again, that makes it kind of tough," Crouch said. "And it makes it to where the rivalry can kind of get lost. You want it to be the biggest game of the year. You want it to be that rivalry match."
White Sox general manager steps down after breakout
CHICAGO — For years, Ron Schueler longed to leave the stress of the general manager's office for what he really loved to do - scout.
Following a season of unexpected success that capped his 10 years in the position, Schauer stepped down Tuesday as the GM of the Chicago White Sox.
The Associated Press
Since Schueler took the job Nov. 5, 1990, the White Sox gave Bo Jackson a try with an artificial hip, released Carlton Fisk, traded Sammy Sosa,
signed a player named Michael Jordan and brought in 'moody Albert Belle.
And they made one of the most controversial trades of the decade, dealing three established pitchers for a handful of prospects, even though at the time they were just 31/2 games out of first place with two months left in the 1997 season.
"After 35 years in baseball, this is the right time for me personally and professionally to step back a little," Schueler said.
Schueler was replaced as GM by Ken Williams, the team's vice president of
player development since 1997
Williams and Jerry Manuel give the White Sox the only black general manager-manager partnership currently in the majors.
Schueler's wife died of cancer nine years ago, and he remarried this season, giving him a new perspective.
He will stay with the team as a senior vice president and special consultant to White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf. And Schueler will also scout.
"Ron came to me three years ago to discuss moving toward scouting more," Reinsdorf said. "We agreed on a schedule that would have had him step down after the 1999 season, but I asked him to remain as general manager one more year to see our development along."
The White Sox surprised baseball this season with a young team that won 95 games and captured the American League Central title. But they were swept by Seattle in the first round of the playoffs.
Schuler, 52, was credited with transforming the White Sox into a contender, one that had a payroll of just $36.9 million. During the year, the White Sox featured 18 first- or second-year players.
Strawberry jailed for cocaine use
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Troubled slugger Darryl Strawberry, already on probation for a drug charge, was jailed yesterday after he was arrested for allegedly testing positive for cocaine.
Strawberry was arrested at a private treatment
center in Tampa and booked into the Hillsborough County Jail, where he was being held without bail, said C.J. Drake, a spokesman for the Florida Department of Corrections in Tallahassee.
X
Strawberry violated curfew by being away from the treatment center from 11 p.m. Saturday until about 3 a.m. Sunday, Drake said.
Strawberry his probation has yet to be determined
He said Strawberry tested positive for cocaine use.
Drake said the arrest was "without incident."
"Mr. Strawberry was very cooperative," he said.
Last month, the suspended New York Yankees star was sentenced to two years' house arrest after admitting that he violated probation by driving under the influence of medication and by leaving the scene of an accident.
Strawberry, who is fighting the spread of colon cancer, could have been sent to prison for that violation.
Instead, the private drug treatment center served as his residence, corrections officials said. Officials declined to identify the center.
Under the terms of his probation, Strawberry was supposed to get permission from his probation officer to leave the center. Normally, the only reason he would be allowed off the grounds would be for a doctor's appointment.
His legal status will be determined after his probation officer files a report with the judge who sentenced him in September. Corrections officials said yesterday that the report was expected to be filed later in the day.
The arrest is the latest legal problem for the 1983 National League rookie of the year and eight-time All Star.
In February, Strawberry was suspended for at least a year, his third cocaine-related suspension from baseball in five years.
He was arrested in September after trying to flee a minor collision while driving to an appointment with his probation officer. Strawberry said, and drug tests confirmed, that he was under in the influence of pain killers. A misdemeanor charge is pending from that accident.

claybornMORRIS
Hometown: Leavenworth
Year: senior
Interests: He's a member of a fraternity and likes to play sports and go to bars. He enjoys a lot of outdoor activities like hiking and rock climbing, but can't really do that in Kansas. He plays intramural football and
basketball at the University.
Why they volunteered for the blind date:
Her: It seemed like a good idea because she thought it would be fun. By the time it got to the date, it was too late to back out.
Him: Because he wasn't having any luck at the Hawk,
1340 Ohio St., at 2:30 a.m. on Thursdays.
8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 10 at Free State Brewing Co., 636 Massachusetts St.:
Clay walked up in 1970s-style clothes he had bought at a thrift store that day. His tight, white polyester pants matched his patent leather white shoes. The black socks made a definite fashion statement — as did his taupe leather leisure jacket.
Liz showed up a few minutes late because she couldn't find a place to park on Massachusetts Street. She was wearing what she called the "sorority uniform" — black pants, a sleeveless, crushneck sweater and a leather jacket.
First Impressions:
Her: "He'd had a six-pack of beer before he came. I think he's attention-starved.
"Actually, I thought him dressing up was funny and pretty bold. It left a fun impression.
"He's nice and I'm way relieved because I was afraid he was going to be someone who wanted to find a girlfriend.
"We have been talking about greek life and why we're in it. He's fun. Definitely a good date — singular."
"We decided to go on a pub crawl. We're both thinking of working abroad when we graduate. My first impression was that he was he was a total engineering dork, but he's trying not to be that guy.
Him: "Honestly — I knew Liz beforehand. She dated a friend from my frat. I was expecting some homely band geek. I was a little sketched out that she wanted to go to Teller's on a Tuesday night. I thought it was funny that the hostess went up to Liz and said she was sorry for her. "I had no shame so well fun."
10 p.m. Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St.
This is their third bar so far. Clay had his friends stake out Free State in case his date was not what he wanted.
Liz and Clay stopped in at Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., for a couple of drinks — but almost got kicked out because he was being so loud. They then went to the Red
"It could have been worse. I already knew him because I met him a week earlier at a work abroad informational meeting."
10 p.m. Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St.:
Lyon.
Liz suggested the Red Lyon because she knew her friends were there and it had free popcorn. She sprinkled it liberally with Tobasco sauce.
1:30 a.m.：
After closing down The Sandbar, 117 E. Eighth St., Liz and Clay called their respective chapters' designated drivers to get rides home. After Liz gave Clay a peck on the cheek, the date was over.
Results:
Her: "We had a lot of fun, but we were both drunk. I didn't get out of bed the next day until 2 p.m. We tried Louise's (1009 Massachusetts St.) then went to the Granada (1020 Massachusetts St.), but it was women's folk night so I tried to get him out of there. So we went to The Sandbar (117 E. 8th St.). I was picking bars where I knew my friends were, and they were really sympathetic.
"He talked about his house a lot. He was such on a kick that I was going to be a homely band geek. He really was a lot of fun, but he said a lot of close-minded things and I'm kind of surprised he had the balls to say them to me. He talked a lot. Honestly, I don't think he remembers anything since he had so much to drink."
Him: "I was dying the next day. I had class from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. that night. All I know is that I got blitzed. I don't remember being at Red Lyon that much. I don't remember that much at The Sandbar either.
"We spent $100 that night.
"Liz was a fun girl. I know a guy in my house and her were good friends and had talked with her earlier in the week because we're thinking of doing the same program next year.
"I was expecting a band geek.
"We had a good time, but I'm a little worried about what I did because I don't quite remember everything I did. I do know I got hit at The Sandbar by someone turning around with drinks. He got me in the nose."
Her: "If he gave me a call and said, 'Hey, my house is having a party and we could dress up.' I'd go.
The future?
"I'd maybe go on another blind date but wouldn't let the Karsan set me up."
Him: "She's a fun girl — I would hang out with her again."

Keyboardist Philip Glass and the Kronos Quartet will perform the original score, written
Glass was asked to compose the music for
score, written by Glass. In
use with the re-release of Universal's Dracula starring Bela Lugosi. Originally, the film had no music and few sound effects. It instead relied heavily on Lugosi's distinctive Hungarian accent. Glass composed the score for the Kronos Quartet, an ensemble that has been hailed as "classical music's own Fab Four" by Rolling Stone magazine.
The ensemble, formed in 1973; consists of two violinists, a violist, and a cellist.
"No one has done more for
either the cause of new music of the revitalization of the chamber format than Kronos," said Billboard magazine. "In fact, no one has done more to transform the idea of what any 'classical' ensemble can be than Kronos, in either content, intent or impact."
Composer Phillip Glass has performed at the Lied Center on three previous occasions. Glass, is a renowned composer and recipient of an Academy Award nomination, LA.Critics Award, Golden Globe Award nomination and Grammery Award Nomination for Best Score. He won a Golden Globe Award for Best Score in 1999 for his work on The Truman Show.

Couple constructs their own caskets
WINFIELD — Like many retired couples, Artis and Alice Bohannan share interests in projects around the house. In this case, it's woodworking.
He does the heavy work, the cutting and fitting and sanding. She puts on the finishing touches of cloth, padding and cushions.
But the Winfield couple aren't making furniture at least not this time. But you can do that, too.
Arlis Bohann, who turned 85 last week, had already been building his own houses for years. He turned to wood-working after a bad back forced him to retire from his mechanic's job at 62.
Since then, he's filled his home with handmade oak furniture.
Her husband said he had been inside his casket while he was building it. But now that it's finished, he said, "I think I wait."
The casket exteriores took Arlis Bohannan about 18 months to complete. The interior work on his casket is also finished, but his wife still is completing the detail work on hers.
So when he saw that he could build caskets for much less than the cost of buying them, it just seemed natural to do so.

People assumed dead must prove existence
LUCKNOW, India — Lal Behari threw leaflets into the state legislature, ran in parliamentary elections, staged a kidnapping and got himself arrested — all to prove he was, in fact, alive.
For 18 years, Behari battled the courts, government and his relatives to show he was not dead. But government authorities would not take his physical presence as evidence enough.
Behari was declared officially alive by the district magistrate of his hometown, Azamgarh, in 1994.
While fighting his case, Behari found at least 100 other people in the region were in the same predicament. He established the "Uttar Pradesh Association of the Dead" in 1980, and the group appealed to the Allahabad High Court and the National Human Rights Commission for help.
Sixteen other cases were redressed by state authorities acting under the court's order. But several dozen people still are fighting to prove they are alive.
alive and that his land could not be taken away, treating him as dead," the Human Rights Commission said in a report on Behari's case.
Man stuck in library sent to slammer
LAS CRUCES, N.M. — A man who got himself trapped inside a library has been booked — after calling 911 — for breaking and entering.
Gregory Roberts, 43, was arrested shortly after 2 a.m. Tuesday, when he called police from a pay phone in the foyer of the Branigan Library, said police Sgt. Jett Cano.
Officers found his shoeprints on broken glass where he allegedly gained entry by kicking in a windowpane, and Roberts apparently cut his hands while handling glass shards, Cano said.
Wandering inside the library, Roberts got trapped between the outer and inner doors of the foyer, Cano said. He couldn't go back in, and he couldn't go back
"We couldn't determine what in the world he was doing in there because he invoked his right to an attorney and wouldn't talk to us," Cano said.
"Sometimes late-night studying just doesn't pay," Cano said.
Now Roberts is behind another door — a jail door. A Dona Ana County magistrate imposed a $10,000 bond.
Texas-size skyscraper mav impede air path
DALLAS — The world's next record-breaking building may rise a bit too high, federal airline officials say.
A Texas-size skyscraper — proposed to reach 1,659 feet — could impede the flight path to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
"It's up there," said Bruce Beard, senior obstruction evaluation specialist for the Federal Aviation Administration. "On a clear day, you could probably see it from almost any place in the metro area."
The FAA, with power to nix Texas construction taller than 200 feet because of
thick air traffic, would have to clear the multibillion dollar project before Maharshi Global Development Fund of New York could proceed.
The project, proposed for a northwestern suburb of Dallas, would surpass the twin Petronas Towers in Malaysia which, at 1,483 feet, beat Chicago's Sears Tower and New York City's World Trade Center for world's tallest building title.
The Dallas skyline's high point is Bank of America Plaza, which stands at 920 feet.
Woman writes lines after lying to police
AKRON, Ohio — It was an elementary approach to crime and punishment.
Jamie L. Vannostran, 22, got off light
obstruction of justice after writing
to the judge, Mr. Clemente, on Aug. 25.
"It was stupid," said Vannostran, arrested Sept. 22 when the father of her three children — wanted by police — was found hiding in her attic:
Municipal Court Judge Lynne Callahan sentenced Vannostroi to 15 hours of community service, reduced by recommissioning for Brian Zwag then assumed the lines.

ROSEMONT, Ill. — To paraphrase rock singer Rod Stewart: When it comes to the tattooed or pierced, every picture, hole, brand, implant and stretched piece of skin tells a story.
According to industry professionals attending The 6th Annual Inklin' Lincoln Tattoo Jamboree in Rosemont, having one's own tale to tell is a big reason behind the modern success of an art form at least as old as the mummies of Egypt.
With the world ever-more homogenized, suburbanized and vinyl-sided, people who use their bodies as a canvas say their markings help make them unique. *
"They're the only thing no one can ever take away from me," said body piercer Nathan Bauer.
Denise Bryan, a nurse and grandmother, was also among those showing off her body art.
"I liked how it turned out and how it felt." Bryan said of her first tattoo, a hockey

themed engraving done three years ago. She now sports more than 50 tattoos, each a personal hieroglyph.
Foul language found in Toy Story 2 DVDs
LOS ANGELES — Some copies of Disney's new Toy Story 2 DVD have turned up with the Rrated movie High Fidelity co-peated into them.
The tainted DVDs were found at Costco stores, which pulled about 1,000 copies of the movie from its shelves last week after the retailer and Disney received about eight consumer complaints. Daily Variety reported Tuesday.
Disney's Buena Vista Home Entertainment blamed the problem on the studio's manufacturer, Technicolor Videocassette, Inc. The studio said less than 1 percent of the Toy Story 2 DVDs were merged with High Fidelity, which includes profanity.
"We are confident that the defective product has been isolated and removed from store shelves," Disney said.
Frier goes for gold at McDonald's games
NILES, Mich. — Call her queen,
Roberta Morrison, 42, has won best
McDonald's french frier in the Great
Lakes states.
The mother of three will go for the gold at the International Crew Olympics in Chicago.
The Great Lakes team will compete against five others, including those from Canada, Japan and Mexico, for the title of best McDonald's crew members in the world.
"It feels like Christmas." Morrison said. World champions get a four-day trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
McDonald's representative Cindy Butter said Morrison had no trouble answering a judge's questions about such issues as the thawing time for frozen potatoes and the ideal temperature for frying fries. She was stumped when asked the number of small French fries helpings that McDonald's turns out from 100 pounds of potatoes — 420.
Contestants were judged on personally, cleanliness and knowledge of their jobs. The judges did not actually taste the contestants' fries.

New bar offers classy experience

Opening a new business without advertising might not seem like the best business plan, but it's worked for Abe and Jake's Landing, a new night spot next to the Lawrence Riverfront Mall on 6th Street.

Abe and Jake's opened its bar last month and beginning Saturday, it will also feature a coffee shop, candy store, art gallery, antique shop, soda fountain and ice cream parlor.

Abe and Jake's is located in the renovated Consolidated Barb Wire building, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. The old factory is now bathed in the warm glow of hardwoods and bronze art, which has proved popular with students.
Omaha, Neb., junior
Ryan Holm, Omaha, Neb., Junior,
said Abe and Jake's was trying to
cater to an older crowd.
"If I was going to take a girl out for a drink, I would take her there," he said. "It's not your typical Lawrence bar."
"It's not your typical Lawrence bar.
Holm said one drawback was that it was expensive — so he probably wouldn't stay there all night.
Owner Mike Elwalt started work on the building 10 years ago when the mall was almost finished. The 24,000 square foot area houses a vast collection of art, including huge bronze frogs, pigs and a Javahawk playing basketball.
He said that even though he hadn't advertised, business was steady and he hoped the atmosphere, interior and location on the river would keep customers coming back.
Sara Gillham, Germantown,
Tenn., junior, said that the bar was
refreshing because it wasn't really
a place a person would see leopard
skin and tube tops.
Rachel Hardesty, a Lawrence resident who is a waitress at Abe and Jake's, said she was impressed by renovations and said people should stop by at least once just to see the building.
"It a little bit more classy than other Lawrence bars," she said. "It would really appeal to upperclassman and grad students."
"When I walked in the first time my jaw dropped," she said. "The whole package is really neat because you can go there with a
bunch of friends or just one person and have a good time."
Abe and Jake's is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings for 21 and older. The pub offers blues music on Thursdays, piano and bass early on Fridays and a dance band later that night.

Local musicians collaborate to open 'Doors'
By Steven Piatt
Special to the Kansan
Jim Morrison is alive and well. Well, not really.
But for 25 songs at 10 p.m. Sunday at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., his spirit will be bowling at the moon.
Billed as the "Doorz Resurrection," members of local bands have come together to deliver a musical costume concert for Halloween.
The four-piece tribute to the Doors consists of keyboardist Ben Singer from Embious Trio, drummer Matt Miner of Four Score, guitar soloist Derek Smith and vocalist Cory Phillips of the New World Gypsies.
Phillips, Lawrence's free-spirited, bare-chested, barefoot chub in black jeans, bears a haunting resemblance to Morrison. He did not have to stretch too far to act for this show, but he did. Phillips has read Doors biographies, listened to every Doors CD, bootleg concert tape and anthology that exists, and watched movies and dusty concert videos.
"He's submersed himself in Morrison's soul for
two months for this show," said Steve Danner of Puss Schrödinger Entertainment and manager of Phillips' band, the New World Gypsies. "It's gotten to the point that Lawrence's tight-knit community can't tell where Jim ends and Cory begins."
Topeka producer John "Brer" Cabrera has come out of retirement to produce the show.
Cabrerra worked with Singer and Miner when he was production engineer for their former band, Einstein Electric. He has been following Phillips' career closely, and news of combination of these
the commitment of musicians made it an easy sell for him.
"I knew this was an eventuality," he said. "And the second I caught wind of Cory as Jim Morrison, I told them I would run their sound for free if I had to, just to be a part of it."
wnat "it" has become is a time-warp back to a
bygone era. Liquid lights bubble across the screen as back lighting illuminates the four-piece throwback to Los Angeles 1969.
Women burst onto the stage and pour champagne on their bodies for one dance with the gyrating, leather-clad, dark prince of poetic genius, only to be whisked away by a uniformed police officer. Few have gone to such great lengths just to don an October mask.
stan Sheldon, former bassist for Peter Frampton and member of local band Son Venezuela, wasn't surprised to hear that Phillips was planning this project.
"I've known Cory for a long time, and his dedication and faithfulness to the ground-breaking music of the '60s and '70s are elements sadly missing from most of the younger musicians recording today," Sheldon said. "A lot of musicians talk about their influences, but few actually display that influence with a genuine passion for what came before them. Cory is one musician that does."

Transyivanian transvestites will be out in full force tonight at the Kansas Union Ballroom — and it's a good bet they will be doing the Time Warp.
All of the freaky festivities are for the Student Union Association's annual showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show and will take place at 9 tonight at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
- Edited by Shawn Hutchinson
Rocky Horror Veteran Megan McQueen, Alma sophomore, said the event was not to be missed.
"Everyone is excited about it," she said. "People dress up and you feel like you're part of the movie."
Another way audience members get into the Rocky Horror experience is with prop packs, which included rice, burnt toast, water guns and newspapers. Viewers throw the objects at the screen at different points in the movie.
Angela Cox, feature films coordinator for SUA, said that the movie was an interactive experience.
"It isn't just a movie you sit down and watch," the Wichita junior said. "It's like going to a party."
McQueen said that the prop packs would be another reason students should take the Rocky Horror plunge.
"You will never ever get to throw stuff at a movie screen without getting thrown out of the theater," she said. "So pay the $6, get the prop pack and throw all the cool stuff at the screen."
The fee also covers students' entrance to the movie, which starts at 11 p.m. Before it begins, students can learn the "Time Warp Dance"—the big dance number featured in the movie, as well as learn all the callback phrases to yell at the screen after certain bits of dialogue.
A costume contest and a DJ spinning tunes will complete the *Rocky Horror* mood. Students can dress as characters from the movie or in whatever costume they desire. Winners of the costume contest will receive prizes ranging from *Rocky Horror* T-shirts to gag gifts from Priscilla's.
Rocky Horror Picture Show
The Rakes for People in Crowdwatch Watching the Rocky Horror Picture Show
1. Don't make fun of those who choose to dress as characters from the movie no matter what they are wearing.
2. In the *Rocky* horror world, strange is not always bad.
2. Don't get jealous if you have a oostime similar to somebody else a'. There are only a limited number of roles in the movies, so they aren't really over yet he smooth Frank N. Furtune?
How to Dress for Success
3. Obey the rules. Don't throw your props a people and generally have a good time.
4. Don't constantly call Brad Majors by nickname, its boring — be inventive!)
Basic Rocky Horror Picture Show costume
**wildly**!
1. Brad Majors and Janet Weiss — Go early retro 1970s in some conservative polyester outfits. Janet wears white shoes with a matching purse.
2. Columbia — We wear a black jacket and black shorts, fishnet stockings, turquoise ankleocks and some tap shoes covered in glitter. Add a sequined top hat and a dog collar.
3. Frank N. Furter — Put on a black curly wig, black lace corset, garters, fishnets, black skin cape, platform shoes, a bracelet, an ankle bracelet, or for all.
4. Magenta — Find a maid's costume,
carly curly wig, flannel stockings and
a hat.
5. Riff Raff — Go formal with a black tux
tails with tales, black fingerless gloves, white
bloody vest and bald wig. Stuff the tux
jacket to make a hump.
6. Rocky Horror — Wear a blight wig, gold short with a red "R" and golden lace.

Cox said that the evening was fun and crazy, especially for newcomers who watched the veterans, some whom have been coming for years.
She said she saw the movie for the first time last year, and she was not left out of the excitement — even though she was a bit surprised by the Rocky Horror veterans' level of interaction.
"The movie starts, and you're so confused at first because they're talking back to the screen and yelling out bad words," Cox said. "It's a shock—but then you get into it yourself, and you're dancing the Time Warp before you know it."

Black Eyed Peas Bridaina the Gap
Just a few years back, a little-known group from the West Coast broke into the already-crowded hip hop scene, gaining a unique reputation with peace-conscious lyrics, a live backing band and dance moves that dazzled even the old-school breakers in the audience.
Naming themselves after a soul food staple of the Deep South, the Black Eyed Peas blew up on their Interscope debut Behind the Front, garnering the attention of hip-hoppers who had grown weary of gun-toting gangstas.
s a tough act to follow, on Bridging the Gap — their second release — the Peas do an admirable job by continuing to produce live beats, melodic grooves and a hybrid aesthetic. When they do allow their DJ to do some creat diggin', he doesn't disappoint. The player played tally well in the group Mandrill, the chorus of Debble Deb's 'BOs hit "Lookout Weekend," and an infectious, percussive loop from one of jazz trumpeter Donald Byrd's funkier outings, among others.
The group's diverse makeup includes will.i.am an African American raised in East Los Angeles; apl.de.ap, who moved to the United States from the Philippines in 1989; and taboo, who is of Native-American and Hispanic descent. The three have their own flow on the mic and dance flavor on the floor. Clever lines such as "We break hearts like Tom Petty" are sprinkled in between melodic refraints that espouse the utopian side of hip-hop and dis those who have abandoned originality.
As an added bonus, *Bridging the Gap* finds De La Soul, Mos Def, Wyclef and Chali2na lending their lyrical lips and monstrous mouths to BEP's sound
collective. Macy Gray, the frontal unknown when she appeared on Behind the Fronts "Love Won't Wait," again contributes her sorrowly vocals, this time on the catchy "Request + Line."
With other West Coast underground ects such as Jurassic 5 finding a wider audience with their most recent efforts, the Black Eyed Peas face stiffer competition. And at times, their MC skills are a bit sketchy, as they can lack imagination and rely too much on physical prowess when performing live, their tight-banding, band, array of dance moves and to facilitate a vibe with the audience more than make up for it.
This album is certainly not a sophomore slump, but it is not in the same league as their first album — in all fairness, a minor masterpiece. Yet Bridging the Gap accomplishes its goal.

Wallflowers - (Breach)
Jakob Dyian has turned inward on the third release from the Wallflowers.
Don't expect the catchy tunes from Bringing Down the Horse to appear on (Breach). If anything, Dylan doesn't seem to want the radio hits like "One Headlight" and "Sixth Avenue Heartache" again.
The tracks of (Breach) are personal and introspective, heavy on lyrics and light on cute hooks. Dylan's aim is laudable, but the result is an album of entirely average or slightly above average songs. With the same instrumentation throughout, each
tune sounds like the others and none stand out.
"Witness" is one of the better attempts. The lyrics, essentially about being alone, are the least vague of all the tracks. It's possible to sing along to the chorus: "You come around here/you better
bring a. *witness/everyone* here is on the guest list." The tune isn't memorable and the playing is basic, but "Witness" succeeds at making a statement.
"Mourning Train" has a different sound, just Dylan and his guitar — a nod to the elder Dylan's influence.
“Murder 101” is the first song with a good rock beat. With well-written lyrics, Dylan needed to continue in this vein. All the songs on (*Breach*), with the exception of “Murder 101,” are basically the same tempo, which gives the album its bland sound. Andrew Slate, the producer of (*Breach*), needed to tell Dylan to write a happy song so the listener won't fall asleep.

Linda Blair's character, Regan, gets examined in Warner Brothers' The Exorcist, 1973, re-released in 2000.

I will be there.
Exorcist back from the dead
By Ryan Dolan
Kansan movie critic
As Halloween approaches, memories resurface of my days as a freshman at Georgetown University in 1993 when I began my treadmill-like quest for a college degree. The rerelease of director William Friedkin's horror classic, *The Exorist*, fuels the trip down my memory superhighway.
There's nothing Catholic school students like better than a pagan holiday. After a night of debauchery, 700-plus Georgetown students line up on Halloween night to grab a seat in Gaston Hall — located in the 125-year-old Healy building, which is the site of the staged political rally at the beginning of the *The Fire*
— to watch the movie on a big screen.
Because the horror movie was filmed in and around Georgetown, the students are well-versed with The Exorcist's scenes, and they scream and cheer at shots of the school or facetious one-liners (it's basically the school's personal Rocky Horror Picture Show).
The Exorcist is based on diaries of an exorcism — a Catholic Church practice of ridding humans of demonic possessors — that took place in Washington, D.C., and St. Louis. Despite it being 27 years later, the movie still contains some shockingly graphic images. An omnipresent evil lurks each time someone enters the possessed little girl, Regan's (Linda Blair), room. "I had never seen it before," said
"I had never seen it before," said Ashley Dew, Charleston, S.C.
senior. "It was probably the worst thing I've ever seen. I am not going to sleep tonight."
The Exorcist's re-release contains 13 minutes of added footage that the novelist and screenwriter, William Peter Blatty, wanted put in the original final cut. After almost three decades, Friedkin finally relented, and the results are mixed.
The added flashes of evil faces ant imprints of statues are lame and detract from the mystery. Added dialogue at the end of the movie between the cop and a priest fall flat as well. The final scenes involving the characters Father Merrin and Father Karras and the climax of the exorcism also were re-edited.
Of course, the fact that Friedkin's re-release has pulled in $30 million in about a month might soothe his artistic sensibilities.
The one good addition is an exchange between Merrin and Karras during a reprieve outside Regan's room. Karras wonders why this little girl has become victim to such a horrible experience. Merrin replies simply that the demon is testing them — if God exists, why would he let this happen?
Lost Souls, a new release that also features demonic possession, isn't as credible or as scary.
Starring Winona Ryder (Girl, Interrupted) and Ben Chaplin (Thin Red Line), the movie becomes possessed by bad dialogue and a deadend plot. Janusz Kaminski's directing debut can't save the dying suspense thriller, although his brilliant cinematography for Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List and

Saving Private Ryan, garnered him two Oscars. His master-of-the-film medium is evident in Lost Souls, but when that becomes the central focus, the movie is in trouble.
The evil intent in The Exorcist is somewhat credible because it was based on an actual priest's account of an exorcism. The evil intent in Lost Souls is lost from the beginning.
If you're a fan of the horror genre or you just want a good fright, catch The Exorcist while it's still in theaters. Envision yourself 27 years ago, before A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream were the horror basics, and imagine the audience's hysterical reaction as you witness the godfather of horror films.

This week I am going to address two questions sent to me last week about glutes and the importance of water consumption.
Water boosts wellness
Why is it so important to drink lots of water every day?
Fitness
David Pilgrim
sports@kansan.com
The question of water consumption is very important because many of us don't drink enough of it, but then again, only a small number of us actually know how and why water is important to the human body.
Water is required for most of the body's processes, from dissolving food to producing metabolic by-products. When these foods break down, the food is dependent on water for the correct functioning of transportation. Water also plays an important role in the regulation of heat because in muscular contraction, approximately 75 percent of the used energy is lost
as heat
Too little water, and you'll overheat.
too little water, and you'll overheat. Water also acts as a shock absorber and lubricator for various joints and structures.
What type of workouts could I do to give my glutes more shape?
Improving your rear — or gluteus maximus — can be achieved by sprinting, lunges, cycling, jumping
rone or squats.
The squat is the king of the compound movements, using more muscle fibers than any other exercise outside of Olympic-style movements such as the clean and jerk, snatch and power clean. For maximum emphasis on your glutes, keep the weight behind your head, balance on your heals and squat until your thighs are parallel to the floor (or a bit lower).
This will intensify the stress on the glutes and hamstrings as you thrust your way back up.
If you have any questions that you want me to address in next weeks issue please e-mail me at lockey@hotmail.com.

Gore winning Web site war
In the last presidential election, both campaigns had a new platform
Web Wanderer
— the desktop PC. Four years later, the Internet reaches a third of the public, and the candidates are waging a cybercampaign.
The two official sites, www.gorelieberman.com and www.georgewbush.com both are hefty productions loaded with multimedia. Both have youth sections and separate sections for each state.
The Bush site gains points for easy navigation and a text-only version, good for programs that read Web pages to the blind. It loses points for several sections that have "check back later" notes in them, and it loses many points for a tasteless plug for George W. Bush merchandise on the home page.
10120718
Chris Hopkins
kansan.com
The Gore site gets points for the load of multimedia content and for using printer-friendly Adobe Acrobat pages. Its design is also nicer than the Bush site, but it's more difficult to get around.
Yahoo lists half as many Gore satires as Bush satires. I may still have to vote for Bush, though —
Overall, Gore seems to be winning the war of the Web when it comes to official Web sites. There is, however, a plethora of other candidate sites.
according to www.george-bushlovesyou.com and www.algo-relovelsou.com, Bush loves me a full ten percent more. It seems to be rigged, though — he loved Tipper Gore 18 percent more than Al did.
Another fun site is www.olsommer.com, where you can see the candidates shake their groove thang, hamsterdance style, with some great political cartoons interspersed.
Don't go to www.bushcheney.com. for real info. You will be asked for an e-mail address, and based upon the site you are forwarded to, anyone dumb enough to enter a real address will be getting some very unfriendly mail. The second, and by far my favorite, is the Dubya Virtual Magnetic Poetry page, www.adamcymerfanclub.org/vma gpoetry.php. Rearranging goofy Bush slip-ups to make beautiful
poetry — what could be better?
Both candidates for Kansas' Third Congressional District, Republican Phill Kline and Democrat Dennis Moore, have attractive Web sites.
M o o r e ,
www.mooreforcongress.com, has some nice touches, including prominent links on the front page to voter registration and a list of his campaign contributors. It also appears to be updated frequently, while Kline's has been the same for a week at least.
Kline's site, www.kline2000.com, is more text-oriented than Moore's, but it is still attractive. It has less Spanish than Moore's site, but it also has a kid's section. Another nice aspect about Kline's site is that his party affiliation is easily discernible, which isn't true for many other campaign sites.
Finally, if you still need to decide whom to vote for, www.votesmart.org has more data than you can shake a ballot at, as well as a very in-depth quiz that matches you up with a candidate. The Spark, www.thespark.com, has a much shorter candidate matchmaking survey, as well as IQ and personality tests to keep you entertained.

Gilded Age shines in exhibit
Opulence and sophistication reign at The Spencer Museum of art in the exhibit The Gilded Age: Treasures from the Smithsonian American Art Museum, which opened Sept. 23 and runs until Sunday, Nov.19.
By Anne Robertson
By Anne Robertson Special to the Kansan
It's one of eight exhibits that are part of Treasures to Go, from the Smithsonian, which will tour the nation through 2002. The exhibit contains 60 pieces, including sculpture and paintings by artists such as John Singer Sargent, Winslow Homer and Augustus St. Gaudens.
The term "Gilded Age" was coined by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner in their 1873 novel of the same name. It described the years between 1870 and World War I — a time of cultural and economic revolution.
"The wealth in the U.S. was relatively new rather than old," said Susan Earle, the Spencer's curator of European and American art, who is in charge of the show.
"The sense of the Golden Age is the years of work and tradition," Earle said. "It was not new. On the other hand, the Gilded Age had more surface qualities instead of depth. It was about new aspirations and culture."
The Gilded Age was sometimes seen negatively when compared with ancient Athens' Golden Age, she said.
Sally Hayden, public relations director for the museum said during the Gilded Age, said there were many people who were rising and getting wealthier, but there still was a large disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished. There also were many immigrants coming to the United States during this time, Hayden said.
The image shows a close-up of a person's face looking up at a dog. The dog is in the center of the frame, appearing to be gazing at the person. The person has long hair and is wearing glasses. There are no other discernible objects or backgrounds in the image.
As more people began to make the move to the United States, many American patrons were traveling to Europe and had developed an interest in art, Earle said.
Mary Corcoran, Lawrence junior, gazes up at a display in the Gilded Age art exhibit at the Spencer Art Museum. The exhibit is one of eight that is on a national tour, courtesy of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. It will remain at the Spencer Art Museum until Nov. 19. Photo by Thad Allender/KANSAN
"It was a way for them to participate in the production of culture," she said. "Collecting and supporting art was something they viewed as a way to support cultural and educational activity."
The Italian Renaissance heavily influenced the Gilded Age, also known as the American Renaissance. This is reflected in some of the works on display, such as Sargent's portrait of Elizabeth Winthrop Chanler. In the painting, two Renaissance paintings hang behind Chanler, indicating her status and the interest in the time period.
"It was common to adapt history to the time because it would prove their level of education and portrayed a certain sensibility to the time." Earle said.
The exhibit includes many images of women in powerful settings, ranging from domestic to public, such as "The Adoration of Joan of Arc."

Researchers claim music defense inept
LOS ANGELES — A group of researchers claims to have defeated four technologies being developed to prevent computer users from listening to copyrighted music for free.
"I expected some would have fallen," said Talal Shamoon of the initiative. "This is part of an empirical process to get the best technology."
A Secure Digital Music Initiative representative said Monday that it was too early to verify the researchers' claims, but that complete circumvention of all four security schemes was a "fairly low probability event." He said that even if the technologies were defeated, it would not prevent the group from devising strong and effective security measures.
In September, the group issued a public challenge and offered a prize to anyone who could break or hack various security measures designed to protect files from being improperly copied or distributed. Four of the measures — each devised by a different technology company — involved an invisible watermark that could be detected by a digital music player. Two other measures used different technology.

Researchers at Princeton University, Xerox PARC and Rice University said they were able to remove invisible security measures placed on four music files by the Secure Digital Media Initiative — a group of 200 music, telecommunications and consumer electronic companies. Any reasonably sophisticated computer pirate intent on illegally distributing copyright music files could do the same, the researchers said. The claim, if true, strikes at the heart of efforts to protect copyrights and prevent people from listening to music for free using technology such as Napster.
1 believe all four of these schemes would have been cracked by pirates if they had been deployed," said Edward Felten, an associate professor of computer science at Princeton.

Emotions ran high yesterday at a demonstration against Israeli occupation of lands Palestinians claim, but organizers said the protest kept a peaceful tone.
"There have been some mad people, but there have been no major altercations," said Phara Charmchi, Kansas City, Kan., graduate student and a protest organizer. "People are finding a way to talk about it without blowing up."
The demonstration was organized by Charmchi and Rajaa Abu-Jabr, a graduate student from Gaza, a disputed city in Israel. About 20 protesters held signs with messages like "U.S. aid to Israel should stop" and "Missiles vs. rocks is Israeli 'peace process,'" distributed fliers and spoke with passers-by for two hours yesterday.
Abu-Jabr said the goal of the demonstration was to raise awareness about the conflict in the Middle East.
"Even if we only inform 10 people about what is going on, that's a big success," she said.
Todd Kornblit, Sugar Land, Texas, senior, said he disagreed with the protesters' opinion that media coverage of the conflict was biased.
"I watch CNN and the biggest thing that I hear all the time is that 130 people died, and they are mostly Palestinian," Kormlit said. "I don't know how that's pro-Iraeli."
Sean Kelley, Overland Park law student, said he participated in the demonstration because he disagreed with U.S. support of Israel and he wanted to make students more aware of the conflict.
"A lot of people here think Israel is right and that Palestine wants war, and that couldn't be farther from the truth," Kelley said. "Palestinians are a peaceful people who just want their own autonomy without oppression. They're not rising up to hurt Israelis, they just want to demand their rights."
David Kroll, Overland Park senior, participated in one of the heated discussions yesterday.
"There's dirty death on both sides," Kroll said. "The media taints the picture on both sides. Where are the pictures of Palestinians with machine guns?"

"Despite the rain, it went really well," she said. "We had such a positive reaction and passed out over 1,000 ribbons. We kept it strictly to promoting peace."
Kroll said regardless of which side of the issue someone was on, the discussions that occurred at yesterday's protest were important.
"It takes people like us coming together," Kroll said to a pro-Palestinian protester. "There has to be people like us pushing the governments to do something."

All evidence considered in assault case, DA says
Credibility of victim not a factor in decision not to press charges
By Katie Hollar
By Katie Foulka
writer@kansan.com
Kansan senior staff writer
The decision not to file charges against the two football players accused of assaulting a soccer player was in no way a reflection on the credibility of the victim, District Attorney Christine Tonkovich said yesterday.
"It is an unfortunate fact that our best chance of preserving the evidence needed to file criminal charges is if these incidents are reported immediately." she said.
Tonkovich said her office carefully considered all available evidence.
The woman had agreed to let football coach Terry Allen handle the players' punishment. When she discovered that punishment was running stairs at Memorial Stadium, she went to police.
The time lapse, coupled with the bar atmosphere, made witnesses' accounts fuzzy at best, Tonkovich said.
two men at the Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St. She did not report the case until two months afterward.
The woman said she was assaulted Feb. 26 by the
"We asked to have everyone in that vicinity that we knew about reinterviewed, but those factors resulted in statements that were not helpful," she said. "If anyone was there that we don't know about and comes forward with a statement, we'd be happy to review those."
Athletics director Bob Frederick deferred any questions about the investigation to the police but said the Athletics Department had learned from the ordeal.
"The Athletics Department is now more aware and better prepared than before to handle this kind of incident," he said in a statement. "We will continue to emphasize to our student-athletes that in all our activities, people should be treated with dignity and respect."
The alleged assault sparked an in-depth investigation by Barbara Ballard, assistant vicece chancellor for student affairs. Ballard created some policies with which the department could handle any similar situations.
Her recommendations included recruiting consultants to help the department with difficult decisions and designating a female administrator to whom athletes could come to with such problems.
Earlier this month, Frederick said he would follow her suggestions promptly. He has appointed Amy Perko, the department's senior female administrator, to the point-person position.
In a statement yesterday, Allen said the sixmonth-long investigation was difficult for everyone involved.
"Our focus has been on complete cooperation in the investigation process and fairness with all the student-athletes involved," he said. "We have all learned some valuable lessons which will hopefully help us in the future."

Women and men speak out against sexual violence
By Leita Schultes
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
It was an evening of painful memories and stories of survival.
Men and women gathered in downtown Lawrence last night to raise awareness about sexual violence during the 13th annual Womyn Take Back the Night.
Holding candles and standing in a circle, nearly 200 women listened to each other tell about their experiences of rape and abuse.
Tears flowed freely, but for most women the circle and night were a demonstration of strength. As each woman told her story, applause and shouts of support abounded.
New to the event was a performance by Unity, a hip-hop dance troupe composed of University of Kansas students.
The evening had other light moments as well. Early in the evening, Talia Morales and Celia, two local musicians, performed in Watson Park, Eighth and Kentucky streets.
Although one audience member questioned whether the suggestive dance moves were appropriate for the event, Lea Carland, Lawrence junior, said the group represented strength and diversity.
"We just wanted to get a real diversity this year," she said. "It's not all about white girls that play folk music."
Although the night was run by women, men were active participants.
Adam Koch, Hutchinson junior,
said he came in support of women
after seeing flyers for the event
"In a college town, there's a lot of drinking and partying, and a lot of times women's rights don't get thought of," he said.
Koch said that awareness may have improved but that it was still not at the level it should be. Both men and women needed to improve their knowledge of sexual violence, he said.
"I see a lot of females on campus who don't care about their rights," he said, adding that some women failed to be independent and instead conformed to traditional roles they saw in society.
Koch said he personally knew people who had experienced sexual assault.
He was not alone
"It's a long, drawn-out process," she said of recovery. "You wonder if they're ever going to get over it."
Carlisha Bell, Wichita senior,
attended the event for the third year.
She said she had friends who had
had sexually abused.
But last night's gathering was evidence some women had survived traumatic experiences.
As they marched down Massachusetts Street to meet male supporters gathered in South Park, 12th and Massachusetts streets, they waved banners and chanted:
"We've got the power! We've got the right! The streets are ours. We'll prove that tonight!"
And when they stopped, it was only to read a list of demands that asked for the eradication of violence against all people.

Crash injures two
One person was transported by helicopter and another by ambulance after a two-car collision in west Lawrence late last night. A black Honda Accord carrying two men lost control and crossed the median while traveling westbound on Clinton Parkway between Inverness Street and Wakarusa Drive, striking a white eastbound Acura, Lawrence police said. Witnesses said that the accident happened about 10:30 p.m. and that the car had been traveling between 60 and 80 miles per hour. The female driver of the Acura walked away from the scene without injury. The male driver of the Accord was transported by ambulance; his passenger was transported by helicopter. Police at the scene could not say whether any of the three people involved was a KU student, but they did confirm that there were no fatalities. Police said more information would be available today.

Lawrence Parks and Re holding haunted house
The Terror — a haunted house sponsored by Lawrence Parks and Recreation — will be open to the public 6 to 11 p.m. today and tomorrow.
Former law professor named as chief judge
Sarah Swain, third year law student, said The Terror was modeled after some of the well-known haunted houses in Kansas City.
The haunted house is located at Holcomb Recreation Center, 2700 W. 27th St.
Judge Deanell R. Tacha, a former KU law professor and administrator, has been appointed chief judge of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Swain said the haunted house was appropriate for most age groups but young children might be scared.
The cost of the haunted house is $5.
Tacha, who has been a judge on the court since a 1986 appointment by President Ronald Reagan, took the post after Judge Stephanie Seymour stepped down. Tacha received the appointment because she had the greatest seniority on the court, said Stephen McAllister, dean of law.
Prior to joining the court, Tacha had been a member of the KU law faculty since 1974 and served as vice chancellor for academic affairs.
The court, based in Denver, has 1.6 members who are divided into three-member panels to hear cases from Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming and Yellowstone National Park.

Suicide bombing raises Israeli fear
JERUSALEM — A Palestinian with a backpack of explosives blew himself up yesterday as his bicycle reached the concrete barrier of an Israeli army outpost, heightening fears that Israel could face a renewed wave of bombings.
The militant group Islamic jihad claimed responsibility for the attack by the 24-year-old in the Gaza Strip, the first suicide bombing during a month of upheaval. Israel responded by blocking the main road in Gaza with a tank and bulldozing trees that Palestinian could use for cover to fire on the isolated base.
The diplomatic front appeared bleak, with Israel and the Palestinians giving a cool response to President Clinton's proposal of Washington meetings aimed at ending the violence. Street clashes broke out in the West Bank and Gaza, and both sides maintained their hostile rhetoric.
Palestinian leaders said the United States could no longer be the sole mediator, calling for the European
Union, Russia and others to join future talks.
A 14-year-old Palestinian boy died of a gunshot wound to the head suffered two weeks earlier, but no deaths were reported in yesterday's clashes. In four weeks of fighting, 129 people have been killed, all but a few of them Palestinians.
The suicide bombing pointed to an escalation in the conflict and added to Israeli concerns that a bombing campaign may be unleashed following the Palestinians' release of 65 militants from jail two weeks ago. The Palestinians say they have re-arrested 22 people.
The bomber, identified as Nabil Araeer, pedaled his bicycle to the Israeli post until he reached the massive concrete blocks of the retaining wall. He then detonated several pounds of explosives in his backpack.
An Israeli soldier was lightly hurt in the blast at Gaza's Gush Katf junction, where Palestinian rioters have clashed with Israeli troops guarding Jewish settlers.

Band will sit by students at football home games
By Kursten Phelps writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Students at tomorrow's home football game should be able to hear the music loud and clear because the Marching Jayhawks will be located right next to them.
The Athletics Department announced Wednesday the marching band would sit next to the student section at tomorrow's game at Memorial Stadium.
Doug Vance, assistant athletics director, said the change would be permanent.
"We felt like it was the overwhelming sentiment that this was in the best interest of the students and the band." Vance said.
Ben Walker, student body president, said he had talked to Pat Warren, assistant athletics director, concerning student complaints about the band's previous location.
He added it also made sense for the band to sit by the student section because its members were students.
The department moved the band to the curved section of the stadium last season because acoustically it provided the loudest effect for most of the stadium. But some students said the band was too far away and hard to hear from the student seats.
"They had legitimate reasons to have the band where they did," Walker said. "But it would better serve students to have the band in the student section."
Randy Foster, a Lawrence senior who has played in the band for five years, said the department made the right decision.
"They did a sound check and said that it was louder in the curved part of the stadium, but it was louder for the alumni, and they're not necessarily the ones that make a difference in the game," Foster said. "Students can really make a difference. They can make enough noise and commotion to distract the other team."
Foster said he hoped the location change would help school spirit at future games.
and help school spirit at future games. "I think it's going to have a great effect on the games," Foster said. "The students will finally be able to hear the fight song again."

Stuck classroom door traps 20 math students

Kansan staffwriter
Maybe talking to the teacher after class wasn't such a good idea.
Twenty students were trapped for 45 minutes yesterday in a fifth-floor classroom in Snow Hall as they waited after class to get extra help from their instructor.
But when they tried to leave, the classroom door wouldn't open.
Half of the Math 122 students had waited after their 2:30 p.m. class, said Thomas Champion, Lawrence freshman, and about half the students for the next class were already in the room.
He said the teacher's assistant for the next hour's class slipped quizzes and practice problems under the door for his students who were in the room.
Meanwhile, Champion said, the Math 122 TA looked at his students' midterms and helped them
Some of the men in the class threw paper airplanes out the window in a futile attempt to get the attention of passers-by, Champion said.
"The door handle was still on; it just wouldn't open," said Marina Burton, Topeka sophomore. "We couldn't get out, and no one could get in. We tried drop-kicking the door. We tried the credit card thing."
Burton was late to work because of the incident.
Cries of "We're free! We're out!" erupted when a maintenance worker finally opened the door with a crowbar.
with questions.
Champion said his plans mostly were unaffected, although he had to postpone taking an exam he had wanted to take after class.
Another student who was parked in the Jayhawk Bookstore parking lot was probably not so lucky, Champion said. There is a 30-minute limit for its customer only lot.

Lawrence dedicates garden

A Japanese garden commemorating 10 years of sister city exchanges between Hiratsuka, Japan and Lawrence has created a pocket of tranquility downtown.
The garden, which includes a stone lantern and miniature 13-story pagoda donated by Hiratsuka, is located next to the Douglas County Historical Museum at 11th and Massachusetts streets.
Mayor Jim Henry, the city commission, community members and a 30-member delegation from Hiratsuka were present for a formal dedication last night.
Itsuo Yoshino, mayor of Hiratsuka, said through a translator that before he saw the garden he was worried because the trees were different from Japan.
The garden is a carefully arranged combination of cherry and pine trees, azaleas, wisteria, small pebbles and large stones, creating a mix of Japan and Kansas.
"Today I'm very happy to see this garden because it has a very Japanese atmosphere," Yoshino said.
Toshi Tsuji, a Hiratsuka resident and exchange intern with the City of Lawrence, said Lawrence was beautiful and the people were kind and helpful.
"I'm very appreciative to the Lawrence citizens for building this garden," he said. "This is very similar to a real Japanese garden."
In July, Henry led a delegation of Lawrence citizens to Hiratsuka for a 10-year anniversary and cultural exchange. Henry said he was impressed with the cleanliness of the city and the shopkeepers who cleaned their storefronts every morning.
"They're very proud of their community," he said. "That's a mindset we ought to have."
Faye Watson, chairwoman of the Japanese Garden Project, said the garden had been in planning for five years and was paid for by donations from Hiratsuka, the City of Lawrence and a fund-raiser that took place last May. The total cost was about $23,000.
She said sister city exchanges Lawrence had with Hiratsuka were important to foster understanding of other cultures.
"It gives everybody a chance to come in contact with international people." Watson said. "Our world is so darn big, but it's getting smaller. You can hardly do anything without running into someone that's from another country and has differ ideas about doing things."

Green 'menace' will force people to be informed
The Green Party platform clearly illustrates its desire to annihilate the decadent lifestyle of average Americans by telling us all how to live.
Americans by telling us all how to live. For example, the Greens obviously seek to overthrow our political system. First, they would demand publicly financed campaigns, which would prohibit any candidate from waltzing into office on a red carpet of greenbacks from moneyed interest. Moreover, the Greens would abolish the Commission for Presidential Debates, which, by allowing alternative parties to debate, such as the dubious Ralph Nader, would destroy the inevitability of the election of the Republican Party and its guarantee to promote inequality and injustice. Under the Green dominion, we would be forced to adhere to the democratic ideals of freedom of choice and belief, a clear violation of our right to an autocratic status quo.
The Green coup of government would also return political power to the people, attenuating the influence of Big Business in politics. Under their pernicious plan, the Greens would excise special interest groups, encumbering the people with a voice and power in Washington. This would usurp our freedom to be apathetic and disenfranchised as we would be.

obligated to become involved in a government that would once again be "of the people, by the people, for the people."
Moreover, this is an gregarious inequity for Big Business, which has spent billions in money earned through exploitation to gain political favors and to elect puppets to the legislature. In their assault on large corporations, the Greens would attack Americans' biggest benefactors.
Obviously we Americans are far better off with myriad American jobs being shipped overseas for cheaper labor, subsequently subverting principles of capitalism. The richest 20 percent of Americans, who hold nearly 96 percent of all stocks (source: nonprofit, nonpartisan Economic Policy Institute), never have seen prosperity as it does in this age of Big Business domination.
We Americans also can take great pride in the way Big Business changes the lives of our friends overseas. A full day's work, that is, 12 to 15 hours, six days per week in poor working conditions, guarantees the workers in many American factories abroad that they will never earn enough meet even their most basic needs. But isn't our right to a decadent's American lifestyle paramount to human rights? The Greens obviously disagree. The Greens also plan to force American employers to pay all American workers a "living" wage that allows a full-time worker to sustain himself and his family above the poverty level.
How dare the Greens expropriate our right to pay our workers a minimum wage that, indexed for inflation, is $2.15 per hour less than the minimum wage in 1968, when our "prosperous" economy was half the size. Clearly, the Greens are trying to put people before profit, a misguided notion that would surely destroy the affluence enjoyed by the top 1 percent of the population, whose income soared 89 percent from 1986 to 1997, according to the IRS.
The most fearful aspect of the Green platform is its concern for the environment. Under the reign of the Greens, we would be forced to use our natural resources responsibly and in a sustainable fashion so that we do not deplete our critical resources. We must fight this, as it denies us our fundamental, American right to glut all resources to feed our "decadent" lifestyle.
The Green Party is a power-hungry force that must be stopped. Luckily, these poor plucky souls have no power. The Greens are so naive, believing that they could become an influential force based solely on the equity of their values and the integrity of their candidates. The rest of us know that power in Washington is bought, not earned.
Nevertheless, we should do everything to end this Green menace because they will indeed tell us how to live: They will force us to become involved, informed, responsible free citizens.

Awareness week helps to empower women
C could there be a better time for Sexual Assault Awareness Week? Not at the University of Kansas. From a rage at the Campanile to alleged sexual
assault by KU football players, KU students have seen a glimpse of the national problem
have seen a groups of violence against women.
Lawrence's Womyn Take Back the Night fell perfectly in the middle of Sexual Assault Awareness Week, and during October, people throughout the country gather to protest violence against women and children during Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

The fact that more than one woman reports rape every minute and that a woman is battered every
Instead of looking to University officials or political authorities to implement policies that will ensure our safety, the Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition relies on the company of other women, survivors of violence or not, to come together at this event
This week's events are organized in the spirit of nonviolence and the week's goals are to create a safe place for all women and children. Apparently, this safety cannot be found in the Yacht Club parking lot or on campus.
15 seconds in the United States should outrage us all. But if not, maybe the rapes and sexual assault of fellow students will force KU students to face this type of violence.
Megan Murphy guest columnist opinion@kansan.com
and reclaim what should always have been ours.
After investigations are finished and policies intact, the Womyn Take Back the Night march still will be there to ensure that, for at least one night, women can be safe. Because domestic violence is the No.1 public health risk to adult women, and one in four college women will be raped on a date, it will take more than policies and investigations to create real change.
that is why Sexual Assault Awareness Week is what it is — a week for women to connect with other women and demand that their nights be free from violence and threats. Through the awareness, education and support this event provides, more change occurs than through any new KU policy.
It is sad and upsetting that fellow students at the University have faced violence that has affected so many women all over the country. It is sad that when these situations arise, we find KU authority figures are clueless, and even unjust, in handling these issues. It will be even sadder if we allow this violence to go unrecognized and accepted.
If national statistics of domestic violence seem abstract and unrelated, consider how safe a female at Kansas can be on campus and imagine how many rapes and abuse cases go unreported here in Lawrence.
Sexual Assault Awareness Week is, most importantly,a statement:Domestic violence and sexual assault is not acceptable anywhere in the nation,including at the University of Kansas.

City must lead effort to clean downtown
Businesses shouldn't be blamed for patrons' after-hours activities.
In recent weeks the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., and Pyramid Pizza, 1016 Massachusetts St., have come under fire from downtown business owners and the Lawrence City Commission because of actions by a few disrespectful patrons. The commission and other business owners claim the guilty crowd is responsible for the litter scattered along Massachusetts Street. The city holds the owners of the two businesses responsible.
Commissioner Erv Hodges went so far as to suggest closing the vending window at Pyramid Pizza
vending window at 9 yrth and Pizza
— to help rid the city of the pesky
paper plates littering downtown on
weekend mornings. But why should
a business suffer while the people
who litter go unpunished? How can
a business be expected to baby sit its
patrons after closing time?
Holding business owners solely responsible for their patrons' actions is simply unfair. Everyone, including business owners, the city, the club patrons and Lawrence residents should work together to help solve the problem.
After all, there are several ways the city and downtown businesses can help curb the problem
First, encourage bar patrons to use common sense. If they have trash, it should be thrown away in the proper receptacle.
Second, the city should dispatch more police officers downtown. Many police officers already drive up and down Massachusetts Street looking for intoxicated motorists, but why not let a few cops walk up and down the street? This will not only cut litter, but also the fist-fights that occur from time to time
Third, hire a cleaning service that cleans all of downtown on weekend mornings. If everyone who lived or worked downtown — as well as the city — would pay a small amount of money each month for this type of service, it would ensure a litter-free downtown. Although it may seem ridiculous to pay for others' irresponsibility, the only way to keep downtown clean is for all to work together.

Pharmacy students teach about disease, good health at fair
By Melissa Davis
writer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
University of Kansas pharmacy students are trying to "educate before they medicate" at their sixth annual pharmacy fair.
According to the American Pharmaceutical Association, Americans spend billions of dollars each year on medicines, and many don't know how to take them properly or what they are used for—but the pharmacy fair can help.
The fair, which will offer educational and informational booths, will be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m today on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.
It will offer students information about diabetes,sexually transmitted diseases, women's health issues, methods to stop smoking and other medical and health issues.
Larry Davidow, clinical assistant professor of pharmacy, said the fair was helpful for students, many of whom overlook the importance of health care because they are young but not necessarily healthy.
"Screening for cholesterol and bone density aren't just for when you get older," Davidow said. He also said he had seen women as young as 18 to 19 years old test below normal for bone density.
"It is important to get screenings now so a person can take preventative action," he said.
Danielle Chauncey, Wichita second year pharmacy student, said one of the main purposes of the fair was to offer preventative measures

for students.
"We look at lifestyles through smoking cessation, sleep deprivation and alcohol, and look at things we can change in lifestyle to become healthier people," she said.
To help students gain knowledge about their health, pharmacy students will be on hand to perform free diagnostic screenings of blood glucose levels, hand out condoms and test for body-fat percentage.
The University's pharmacy fair hit the road recently, making stops at the state capitol and Pittsburg State University.
Patrick Brady, Bonner Springs second year pharmacy student and coordinator of the fair, said the fair gave pharmacy students a chance to show the public that pharmacy students did more than fill prescriptions.
"It catches people off guard when they see we do so many things," he said.
Aside from browsing informational booths, students also will be able to register for clocks, ankle and hand weights and many other prizes.

Bewitching Wicca
Ancient, nature-based religion finds new devotees
By BriAnne Hess writer@kansan.com Kansan senior staff writer
A woman is standing in front of a desk, her mouth open in a scream. She has long hair and is wearing a dark dress with a necklace. Her hands are raised in a defensive gesture. The background is indistinct, but it appears to be an indoor space.
Kacey Carlson performed her first spell when she was 5 years old and thought the willow tree in the yard was dying.
"I didn't understand autumn," Carlson said. "So I went around the house and found every liquid I could find and put it around the tree — it's a wonder I didn't kill it."

Carson is now a Wiccan high priestess teaching Wicca: The Old Religion. at The Good Earth Mother Alchemy Shoppe, 803 Vermont St.
Carlson said the class was hands-on and that students would cast spells and write a ritual. KU students had enrolled in previous courses, but no students were taking the course this session.
Carlson started teaching Wicca in 1887. She said the class offered 18 hours of information about Wiccan culture and its beliefs, including cosmology, spellwork, divination, rituals, rites of passage and covens. The class costs $140 for 9 weeks.
"My goal is to pay my own bills, but people feel like they're getting a heck of a deal, too." Carlson said. "Some find they are not witches, but there are very few. If they are drawn to the class, they probably are witches."
Darcie Callahan, Lawrence doctoral student, wrote her masters thesis about Wicca. She said that Wicca was traditionally taught but that students normally weren't taught in a class format or charged. She said a person didn't have to take a class to be Wiccan, but that it would probably help.
Gaining popularity and acceptance
"In the past five years or so people are hearing a lot more about Wicca," Callahan said. "It's become a lot more trendy — which can have negative and positive effects to a religion."
Callahan said the shows had some accurate information but many Hollywood efforts falsely depicted Wicca by making it a conflict between good and evil, which is a Christian tenet.
have negative positive such as Charmed, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Sabrina the Teenage Witch and movies such as Practical Magic, Witches of Eastwick and The Craft have proliferated in recent years. All involve witchcraft.
Tim Miller, professor of religious studies, said there were more Wiccans in Lawrence than most people thought — between 500 to 1,000. He said Wiccans were harder to count than those in other religious orders because there were several different organizations and some Wiccans practiced alone.
Kerry Johnson owns the alchemy shop where the class takes place and is also one of Carlson's students. She said that her shop, which sells mostly Wiccan-related merchandise, kept busy.
"They're really coming out of the broom closet in Lawrence," she said. The shop also sells teenage witch kits that are marketed by a Wiccan, Silver Ravenwolf. The kit consists of a yes/no coin, a magic wish cord, a golden money charm, sea salt, a silver bell, a pentacle pendant, a quartz crystal, a spell bag and an instruction book.

Johnson had studied Wicca for seven years before she enrolled in the class. Solitary Wiccans often meet at her shop to celebrate holidays.
Carlson said the Internet also had made a huge difference in Wiccans and pagans finding each other.

it's the Native Americanism of Europe," she said. "There's a very specific system of both cosmology and behavior that has to do with natural cycles and the activity of spellwork — the study of and performance of magic."
"You become interested in accessories — astrology and tarot," Carlson said. "I don't think there's a conversion."
Carlson said Wicca was the pagan religion of Europe.
"There's two facets — worshiping the lord and lady and the natural cycles is one and the
same—earth and sky, yin and yang," she said.

Miller said that belief systems varied greatly from Wiccan to Wiccan. While some branches of Wiccan only worship a female deity, Carlson said Wicca was about the worship of the god and goddess.

Miller said Lawrence generally was accepting of the Wiccan religion, but there were some who misunderstood the religion.
Divination
"My dad and stepmom are totally supportive," she said.
"They think it's keen to have a witch for a daughter — they buy me cloaks. I'm estranged with my mother. She thinks I'm going to hell — but I hold out hope we'll establish a relationship."
"A lot think it's Satanism, which it is not," Miller said. "In conservative Protestantism, there's a typical hostility to all other religions other than their own."
Miller said basic values of all religions were relatively similar but had different concents of God and had different rituals.
"Religion has the function of helping you relate to the world and improve your life," Miller said. "At heart, people are trying to live good and meaningful lives and understand what the universe is about and Wicca is no different than others."
Carlson said many people thought that because Wiccans had put the goddess back into religion, that most Wiccans were women. In fact, there are usually an equal number of men and women.

"We've put the goddess back in because that's the thing that makes sense," Carlson said. "In our religion there are a lot of strong women, compared to your average society."
Carlson's parents have had mixed reactions to her religious preference.

"It was starting to look kinda bad," said Kansas senior safety Kareem High. "But we really thought we could turn the season around."
But the Jaybowl survived after threats to have it torn down because lack of use and so have, for now, the Jayhawks. When Texas Tech meets the Jayhawks at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Memorial Stadium, it will mark Kansas' (4-3, 2-2) first true chance for a bowl game since 1995. A win would mean Kansas would need only one more victory in its remaining three games to be eligible for a bowl.
The Union and the stadium had something in common last year. Most people figured the chances of bowling from either this year were pretty slim.

"Winning heals an awful lot of things." Allen said.
Practices are more physical now. There's been challenges for positions. Players often fight during them. But it's funny how all the chaos and pain tend to be forgotten once success starts.

'Hawks stumble into undefeated Cornhuskers
Volleyball team hopes it can catch Nebraska off-guard
By Sarah Warren
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
There's no such thing as a fun trip to Nebraska.
The No. 1-ranked Cornhuskers have downed every volleyball team they've come across this season. And, after dropping their last two games, facing the top-ranked team in the country on the road isn't exactly what the Jayhawks, 12-9, 3-9 Big 12 Conference, would wish for.
"The road kind of falls off the cliff there," said coach Ray Bechard. "We may play our best there and not win, but we'd become a better team from it."
As if facing the 20-0 'Huskers wasn't enough, the Jayhawks will have to do it in front of 4,000 screaming scarlet-clad fans in the sold-out Nebraska Coliseum. Although daunting in number, the scarlet sea may have a positive effect on the Jayhawks.
"When the fans are talking smack on you, you're like, Whatever. We're going to prove

places to play. They just

you wrong." said Jennifer Kraft,
sophomore defensive specialist
"Nebraska, honestly, is one of the most fun places to play." Kidd said. "They just like watching good volleyball, so even if we make a good play they'll cheer for us. It's a really positive volleyball environment."
Senior outside hitter Sara Kidd said those who weren't "talking smack" on the 'Hawks might actually be hurling words of encouragement toward the opposing bench.
This should be comforting to the Jayhawks, after they were shut out by the 'Huskers in front of their own fans Sept. 20. But, in any case, friendly fans are only a small comfort.
Comfort in general is hard to come by in Cornhusker country, and the Jayhawks know it. They have been preparing for tomorrow in the hopes they will play their best of the season at 7 tomorrow night.
"We've just got to be read," Kraft said. "We've got to be perfect if we're going to play with them."
However, the Cornhuskers were sharp enough to shut out Missouri on Wednesday night in Columbia, Mo., handing the Tigers their first home loss of the season. Nebraska is holding its opponents to a mere .098 hitting percentage while holding down a strong .340 team hitting percentage.
Besides praying for heightened play from his team, Bechard said he was hoping to catch the dominant 'Huskers off-guard and off-balance.
"I think the biggest thing we've got to do is put the ball away," said Kldd, whose team is averaging a .253 hitting percentage. "We've got to execute at the right times."
"When you're undefeated and you're winning games 3-0, it's hard to stay focused and sharp." Beard said.

Early season practices show Chenowith improving

By Michael Kagg
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It's more a cliché than a media event, but sometimes, the reporters at the annual Big 12 Conference media day have something to talk about.
Such was the case yesterday, when the Kansas Jayhawks couldn't stop talking about the play of senior center Eric Chenowith.
With yesterday off, the Jayhawks have had ten practices this season. Already, Kansas coach Roy Williams is noticing Chenowith's improvement since last season, which both coach and player said they thought was abysmal.
they would say he's played as good or better than anyone on the court."
"He has really played well," Williams said.
"If you were to ask everyone on our team,
"One of the big things I want to have happen this year is to get my confidence back." Chenwith said. "So far, in the first ten practices I've felt a lot better on the court. I think a lot of the guys have felt better playing with me. Hopefully, that snowballs into a good year."
— is starting to regain some of the confidence he lost during his tumultuous junior campaigm.
Chenowith — whose totals dropped in almost every statistical category last season
Senior forward Kenny Gregory said he also noticed the difference in Chenowith.
"It's a major difference," Gregory said. "You can tell he actually did something this summer, unlike the summer before."
Chenowith's strong start is a sharp contrast from last season. A year ago, Williams was calling Chenowith into the coach's office to view videotape of the first week of practice. "He was not very good," Williams said. "But now, he's 190 degrees from that."
Now, Chenowith focuses on regaining his spot in Kansas' starting lineup. He was benched for the final 13 games of last season, but sald he was intent on not sitting on the Kansas bench for tip-off of the first game.
But Williams won't know his starting line-up until after the Jayhawks' two exhibition games next week. But he has an idea about his starting guards.
"I think Kirk (Hinrich) and Jeff (Boschee) are pretty secure," Williams said. "But that's because we don't have a lot of depth in the backcourt."
Big 12 Media Day Notes:
An important issue of the day was the new crackdown on personal fouls. The Men's Basketball Rules Committee — on which Williams serves — stated in May that rules regarding rough play would be strictly enforced this season. The reasoning, Williams said, was the lack of foul calls last season cut down scoring and stopped the nation's top players from performing at their highest level.
Charlene Taylor — the mother of Jayhawk recruit Keith Langford — told *The Cincinnati Enquirer* her son would chose between Cincinnati and Kansas. Langford, a 6-foot4 guard-forward from Crowley, Texas, is scheduled to visit Kansas on Friday, Nov. 3.

World Series needs to have Chicago aura in near future
As football season gets shorter and the NBA sets up shop for an excruciatingly long season, the city of New York continues to bask in the glory of success.
In basketball, the Knicks usually field a strong team in the NBA.
In the NFL, the Jets are 6-1 after last Monday's uncanny comeback win against the Miami Dolphins during Monday Night Football. The other New York football team, the Giants, are 5-2.
And, more importantly, the Mets and Yankees got the privilege of revisiting an all-New York World Series. Although the Subway Series is a delight for many sports fans, I long for the day when another city has the glamour of an intra-city Series. Ah, yes — Chicago.
Fellow columnist Amanda Kaschube rejoiced when the mighty White Sox took their glorious record into the playoffs against the Seattle Mariners. But the Sox were swept 30, and quietly retreated back to Chicago.
Being a Cubs fan, I enjoyed seeing the White Sox lose. I can't explain why. I'm not from Chicago, but I grew up watching the Cubs on WGN in north-central Kansas. I learned that it was in the job description to hate the White Sox if you were a Cub fan.
"Hey Steve, did you know Linenberger spelled backwards is Regebrennil? Holy cow!"
He also enjoyed pronouncing player's names backwards to WGN color commentator Steve Stone.
Nowadays, Harry's son, Skip, calls Atlanta Braves games for TBS, and grandson Chip does Cubs play-by-play for WGN. It's not the same, but baseball goes on and the Yankees win more and more baseball titles.
Obviously, the Cubs must help their cause and field a team that can end a World Series appearance drought that has existed since 1945. Giving Greg Maddux to the Braves didn't help, and Mark Grace's possible exit because of free agency would also be a tragedy. Along with an atrocious last-place finish by the Cubs this year, it doesn't seem likely that a Windy City Classic will happen anytime soon.
But if only it could have occurred during Harry Caray's lifetime. Chicago Cubs baseball just isn't the same since the long-time broadcaster died in the spring of 1998. Only Harry could be a Bud Man and a Cub Fan. An ice cold Budweiser would be enjoyable while covering a game, something Harry did with a unique touch. Of course, having a little liquor in his belly didn't hurt.
With that in mind, seeing a Windy City War would be a change of pace from the regular trend of the Yankees against somebody else.
While broadcasting one game, Caray said: "The bases are loaded and so am I."
Perhaps Yankee bench coach Don Zimmer, a former Cubs manager, will come back to Wrigley and lead the Cubs from the doldrums of mediocrity into the playoffs.
Until something spectacular happens, I'll have to settle for the Subway Series. It's great to see a natural rivalry as a showcase in the World Series, but someday I hope to see the same situation in Chicago. I'll be sitting with the Bleacher Bums in left field as Sammy Sosa hits a home run over my head onto Waveland Avenue against the White Sox.
And this will be a reality, because, Cubs fans, this is gonna be our century.

HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (Oct. 27).
This year you're powerful and smart. In October, use those brains to avoid repeating a mistake you made before. Funnel your money into a safe place in December. Let go of the past in February. Your home takes on a new look. You can overpower a partner in May, but should you? Maybe what he or she says is right. Keep your treasure stashed away in June. Travel back to a favorite place instead of going to a new one in July. Your friends look for guidance in September. Provide it.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 5.
The problems aren't solved yet, but at least you know what they are. Don't jump whenever you discover a new one, OK? It's making the troops nervous. Take a clue from your noblest adversary. Never let anyone see you sweat.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6.
Put as much of this paycheck as you can into your savings. You'll feel better with a fat nest egg. You've worked hard and done a good job. Once your chores are through, take a break. Let somebody else take care of you for a while.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6.
You'd like to do other things, but work takes precedence. Even if you finish it, more is coming.
Postpone travel for a couple of days. If you work tomorrow, could you get Monday off? Ask.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8.
Passions run high. Keeping a lid on your emotions may be difficult. You may be tempted to bust your budget, too. That will work only if both of you decide it's a good idea. Actually, even then, it's not.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
Give domestic matters top priority. Somebody at home may be trying to tell you something.
Unfortunately, it's not an easy thing to say. If you're patient, it will come out. That will be better for everybody — eventually.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6.
A new trick you try is liable to fail miserably. Be cautious. Work with a net, a drop cloth and maybe even a parachute. Don't bet too much on a new techno-gadget, either.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
Lora (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
The temptation to spend all of your money on a loved one could be overwhelming. You've come up with all kinds of reasons, but hold off. What you have in mind could do more harm than good. Your heart's in the right place; just leave it at that.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 4.
You may be in a nasty mood today, especially if you have a household breakdown. Counsel yourself to be patient even if it's inconvenient. This may work out for the best, but not for a couple of days.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 5.
Good thing you're lucky and cute. And smart. And willing to take coaching. And willing to dump what doesn't work in favor of what does. And spiritually advanced. And quick. Expect surprises.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 1) **TODAY** is a **G**. Hold onto your wallet, even when approached for a worthy cause. Ask what percentage actually goes to the charity. Sometimes it's not much. If the person is persuasive and persistent, it's OK to just hang up.

Jayhawks to end fall at Team Championships
The Kansan men's tennis team will culminate its fall season Sunday at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Region V Team Championships in Tulsa, Okla.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.

The Jayhawks enter the Championships as the second seed out of four teams and will face third-seeded Oklahoma State on Sunday morning. The winner of that match moves on to face either top-seeded Indiana State or fourth-seeded Tulsa

TENNIS
Winning on Sunday won't be an easy task. Last year the Jayhawks settled for second place after losing to Indiana State in
the finals. They may get a second crack at the Sycamores in the finals this year if they can get past the Cowboys, a team Kansas defeated in the Big 12 Conference Championships last spring in the first round.
A victory this weekend would place the team in the National Team Indoor Championships from Feb. 15 to 18 in Seattle and give them a shot at breaking into the Top 30 of national rankings.
"I think we're very capable of winning the team championship, and I know our players feel the same way," coach Ross Nwachukwu said. "Our work is cut out for us, and we're ready to do it. This is our chance to get into the Top 30 nationally, and if we win this championship, we could move up in the rankings."
Each round of the championships consists of six singles matches and three doubles matches. A point is awarded for winning two out of three doubles matches and for each singles victory.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Elvis Grbac pronounced himself "100 percent" yesterday after going through a full practice following an elbow injury Sunday against the St. Louis Rams.
Coach Gunther Cunningham said he also was impressed with Grbac's workout and he would start at Seattle on Sunday.
Grbac ready to play despite elbow injury
NFL
Grbac was hurt on the Chiefs' last play of the third quarter Sunday. The injury was initially reported as a right elbow contusion, but X-rays on Sunday proved negative, and an MRI on Monday showed the injury to be only a bruise.
Warren Moon, the 43-year-old backup who has said this is his last year, finished up the 54-34 victory against the Rams and would have started if Grbac couldn't play. Moon was 3-for-3 for 78 yards in relief of Grbac, helping the Chiefs give the Rams their first loss.
Grab workd out sparingly Wednesday, but went through the full practice yesterday and said he was fit. Cunningham said Grab had good velocity on his passes.
Pittsburg State QB iniured in car accident
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
PITTSBURG, Kan. — Lateef Walker, starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh State football team, was critically injured in a traffic accident early yesterday that also left a teammate with injuries.
Walker, 22, was a passenger in a car that left a city street at high speed, went into a ditch and struck a light pole before landing upside down, police reported.

Regional Medical Center in Jopin, Mo. Walker remained in critical condition early Thursday afternoon.
The cause of the accident was still under investigation.
The police report said the driver, Paul C. McStallworth, 29, also of Pittsburgh, had only minor injuries. Passenger Quentin L. Turner, 22, a junior from Norman, Okla., and defensive back for the Gorillas, was in serious condition yesterday at Mt. Camel.
NBA
JaRon Rush likely to sign with Kansas City Knights
Walker, a junior from Jesup, Ga., came to Pittsburg State after a season with North Dakota State University. An option quarterback, he has led the Gorillas, ranked No. 17 in NCAA Division II, to a 6-2 record going into tomorrow's game against Missouri-Rolla.
Rush spent Wednesday afternoon visiting with Knights coach Kevin Pritchard, a former Kansas player, and general manager Tom Cheatham. It was a chance to clear the air and chart a course for the new team.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — JaRon Rush wants a chance to fulfill his dream of playing in the NBA.
The first step toward that dream will be stepping on the court for the Kansas City Knights of the American Basketball Association.
"I feel this is a great opportunity to come back to Kansas City and play and let my fans, who are still in Kansas City, come and see me play again," Rush said.
Cheatham did not confirm Rush would soon be under contract, though a decision is thought to be likely early next week.
Pritchard said he was willing to give Rush a second chance.
Rush, 21, left UCLA after his sophomore season. The 6-foot-7 forward did not get drafted by the NBA.

Despite personal achievements, the Kansas men's and women's swim teams came up short yesterday against Texas &M.
The Texas A&M men's team finished with 139 points to Kansas' men's score of 99. The Texas A&M women's team finished with 154.5 to Kansas' women's score of 88.5.
Today, the teams face Big 12 opponents at the Big 12 Conference Relay Invitational at Robinson Natatorium.

Kansas men's coach Doug Dickinson said he was pleased with Soria's performance.
"He was aggressive the whole way, and that is what I wanted," said Dickinson.
Soria was not the only successful swimmer for Kansas. Senior co-captain Chad Sunderland won the 200-yard breaststroke in a time of 2:08.81, a 2.67 second improvement. Following Sunderland with a second place finish was freshman

Offense: Compared with Texas Tech, Kansas' offense looks extremely ground-oriented. Red Ralers quarterback Killk Kingsbury averages nearly 50 passing attempts per game. The big question is whether the Jawhayes' secondary is up to the challenge. Advantage: Texas Tech.
Defense: Kansas must deal with all sorts of passing and no-huddle options. If it can, say so long to the Red Raiders. Tech is ranked second in the Big 12 Conference, surrendering only 277.5 yards per game — and it has already faced Nebraska and K-State. Advantage: Texas Tech.

Red Raiders present air threat
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
This season the Big 12 Conference is loaded with highly publicized, highly ranked passers.
Oklahoma's Josh Heupel, Texas' Major Applewhite and Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury, among others, have all drawn national attention for their performances this year.
Tomorrow the Kansas football team will oppose air-minded Texas Tech and Kingsbury. The Red Raiders (5-3, 1-3 Big 12) have the nation's 15th-ranked passing attack, averaging 287.8 yards per game.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said he recognized Kingsbury was a quality quarterback.
"Their quarterback is a good athlete," Allen said. "He can stand in there and make plays. He's probably got as quick a release as anybody around."
season and averages 275 yards passing per game.
Kingsbury, a sophomore, makes the Texas Tech offense go. He has three 300-yard passing games this
However, Kingsbury's prolific passing has had an effect on the Red Raiders' running game — particularly on senior running back Ricky Williams.
In 1989, Williams, then a sophomore, gained 1,582 yards, averaged 143.8 yards per game and ran for 13 touchdowns. In 1999, he suffered a knee injury in the season opener and missed the rest of the season.
This year Williams has only 321 yards on 92 carries and is averaging a paltry 40.1 yards per game. He averages only 11.5 carries per game. In 1998, he averaged 28 carries per game. However, he has caught 34 passes, eighth most in the Big 12.
Allen said he Williams had gamebreaking potential.
"Those of us who have seen Ricky Williams play know he's a very talented running back," Allen said. "He hasn't had the numbers he's had in the past because he hasn't had the touches or the opportunities, but, nonetheless, it makes you
that much more fearful because you know that he could break one on you pretty easily."
Texas Tech also has a strong group of receivers for Kingsbury to throw to. The Red Raiders have four of the top 11 receivers in the Big 12 in number of catches per game.
Despite the Red Raider offense drawing the most attention, the Texas Tech defense has performed very well this year. In fact, the Red Raiders lead the nation in pass defense, yielding only 123.6 yards per game. Texas Tech is ninth in the nation and second in the Big 12 Conference in total defense, allowing only 277.5 yards per game
Texas Tech coach Mike Leach, in his first season, said Kansas would present a challenge to the Red Raiders.
"They're playing really well," he said. "Kansas is doing a lot of good things. They're on a two-game winning streak, and I think they've gotten better as the season has gone along. And it's up there, so we have our work cut for us."

'Huskers rumble into Oklahoma with national title hopes at stake

By Allan Davis sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
No. 1 Nebraska (7-0, 4-0 Big 12 Conference) against No.
3 Oklahoma (6-0, 3-0) is the premier game in the nation
tomorrow and will be broadcast on ABC at 11 a.m.
Nebraska has scored more than 48 points in four games and is No.2 nationally in scoring offense at 46.3 points per game. The Cornhuskers are first in the nation in rushing defense, putting up 379.7 yards per game.
Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch and running back Dan Alexander and Correll Buckhalter will challenge the Sooner defense. Oklahoma is 19th in the nation in rushing defense, yielding 101.7 yards per game.
Oklahoma leads the nation in scoring offense at 46.7 points per game and is fourth nationally in passing offense with 327.3 yards per game. No team has stopped Sooner quarterback Josh Heupel from lightning up the scoreboard. Nebraska is 33rd in the nation in pass defense, yielding 190.6 yards per game.
No. 10 Kansas State (7-1, 3-1) at Texas A&M (5-2, 3-1)
Texas A&M can be bowl-elegant tomorrow. The Aggies still have Texas and Oklahoma at home, and Oklahoma State at Stillwater, Okla., on their schedule.
K-State could still win the Big 12 North if it beats Nebraska on Saturday, Nov. 11. K-State could probably forget about a Bowl Championship Series spot if it loses to the Aggies.
Bavior (2-5, 0-4) at No. 22 Texas (5-2, 3-1)
This game is likely to be decided early. Texas still has a chance to win the Big 12 South Division and isn't likely to stumble against Baylor.
Baylor has been shut out in three consecutive games. It could happen again tomorrow.
Missouri (2-5, 1-3) at Iowa State (5-2, 2-2)
Iowa State could become bowl-eligible with a win against Missouri tomorrow. Cyclone senior quarterback Sage Rosenfels is 19th in the nation in total offense.
Missouri defensive end Justin Smith, a Bronko Nagurski Defender of the Year candidate, has 54 tackles and 12 tackles for a loss this season.
Bakersfield State (1.4-0.3) at Colorado (1.6-1.3)
These two teams are having disappointing seasons, but one of them will come away with a win.
Cowboys coach Bob Simmons was an assistant on former Colorado coach Bill McCartney's national championship team in 1990, as was Colorado coach Gary Barnett.

BURKITTSVILLE, Md. — The Blair Witch is haunting Burkittsville again.
"People who come out during the second movie might be a little die-hard," former mayor Paul Gilligan said. "If they didn't get the drift that the first one was a fake, we're a little concerned about them."
BUT YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVEN't.
TRUE, BUT A PERSON SHOULD HAVE PRINCIPLES!
None of the sequel was shot in Burkittsville. Producers from Artisan Entertainment walked out of a heated meeting in March with some residents unhappy with the attention the town got last time.
Book of Shadows was filmed mainly in a Baltimore warehouse and at a cemetery located in another, undisclosed Maryland town. But the Burkittsville name lives on in the film.
The tiny western Maryland town is bracing for a second onslaught of Blair Witch fanatics with today's release of a sequel to last year's surprising box-office hit.
Burkittsville's tranquility was shattered in the summer of 1999 when the low-budget The Blair Witch Project became a sensation. The mock documentary was about three film students who disappeared while searching for a mythical witch.
Already this week, Burkittsville was seeing a growing number of tourists.
It's just a movie, say residents who hope to be left alone this time.
The Associated Press
The town's road signs — stolen last year — have been replaced. The number of witch-seekers stalking through the cemetery has slowed to a trickle. Still, Burkittsville's 200 residents expect more than just local trick or-treaters after the opening of Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2.
Believers flocked to Burkittsville and its woods, convinced the legend was true, but they were looking for a town history that didn't exist. Burkittsville wasn't built on the remnants of an 18th-century settlement named Blair, as the movie said.
Frederick County police, who do not patrol Burkittsville heavily, will post several officers in town today through Halloween night.
"We had to stop by and get a picture of the town sign and a postcard with Burkittsville," said 29-year-old Chicagoan Mike Feinberg, a fan of the first movie. "Now we're looking for the lady who sells T-shirts."
"There's concern that the second one will bring in a larger number of people than last time," said Phil Stanley, 63, who moved to the town two years ago because of its obscurity.

Soccer team pursues first tournament berth
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa sports@kansan.com
Kanson writerwriter
In the past five seasons, the final match of the regular season marked the end of the year for the Kansas women's soccer team. But this year, the game may begin a new era for the sixth-year program.
If the Jayhawks win the season's final game against Missouri at 4 p.m. today in Columbia, Mo. they will finish sixth in
the Big 12 Conference and earn their first berth in the Big 12 Tournament, for which the top eight conference finishers.
Even if Kansas loses to the Tigers, it would clink a berth with an Iowa State loss to No. 3 Nebraska. Iowa State (7-8-2, 3-5-1 Big 12) and Kansas (7-9-2, 3-5-1
12) snare seventh place in the conference standings, but Kansas' head-to-head victory against the Cyclones on Sept. 29 gave the Jayhawks a tie-breaker advantage.
Kansas coach Mark Francis said that Nebraska, the Big 12 regular-season champion, likely would beat Iowa State and present a berth to the Jayhawks but that today's game was still important for Kansas.
SOCIAL SPORTS
"If we win, we'll finish sixth," Francis said. "That's a big incentive. You'll get a better draw in the tournament."
Sophomore defender Brianna Valento
said a victory against Missouri, unranked nationally but No.10 in the central region, would send Kansas into the tournament with more confidence.
"That's what we need," Valento said. "We've been playing well but haven't been able to get that win yet."
Missouri (9-9, 4-5 Big 12), which reached the NCAA Tournament last year, is heading into today's battle on the heels of a 5-1 victory against Loyola-Chicago last Sunday. Senior forward Nikki Thole a
Senior forward NIKRI Thole, a 1999 second-team National Soccer Coaches Association of America All-American, leads the Tigers with 23 points on eight goals and seven assists. Thole scored two goals in last year's 4-0 victory against Kansas.
"Missouri is a good team."
"Missouri is a good team," Francis said. "They've had very
good results and bad results, kind of up and down — kind of like us, actually."
Because of both teams' inconsistency, Francis said the outcome would depend on which team came out more ready to play.
But Kansas is confident that it can tame the Tigers.
"I think we'll be ready," freshman goalkeeper Sarah Gonzalez said. "We know how much it means, and we know how much comes down to this. This game is like the biggest game probably in the season."
Kansas cross country coach Stanley Redwine has stressed to his teams all season that meet-to-meet improvement would determine the Jayhawks' performance at the Big 12 Conference Championships.
By Ryan Malashock sports@kansan.com Kansan writerwriter
Runners head to Big 12 champs
Whether they improved will be revealed tomorrow morning at the Big 12 Championships in Boulder, Colo.
the men's and women's cross country
Both the men's and wolf teams look to improve on their disappointing finishes a year ago. At last season's Big 12 Championships, the Jayhawk men finished seventh, and the women finished 12th.
Cross Country
Tomorrow morning's
championship will be run at the University of Colorado's home course, Buffalo Ranch, and Redwine said the course and location would play big roles in tomorrow's races.
"The runners have made comments all season about having to run in the high altitude at the Big 12 Championships," Redwine said. "But we have to remember that everyone has to perform with those conditions, not just us."
"If we run hard and run together, we're going to do well," Behrens said. "I think a
team goal would be to place in the top three at conference."
Behrens and fellow Junior Mark Menefee have each led the Jayhawk men twice in meets this season. Redwine said strong performances from the two were key to the men's success.
"Brent and Mark have performed for us all year, and I think they will continue to show strong for our men's team." Redwine said.
Sophomore Bridget Morrisey said the women wanted respect from their conference counterparts.
Freshman Laura Lavioe has finished highest for the women's team in every race this year. The women's team has five underclassmen in the seven runners whose scores count for the team's total.
"We just want to prove to the other Big 12 schools that we can run," Morris said. "I know we haven't shown well in the past, but we've got a great chance to this year."
Colorado enters the championships as the favorite to win both the men's and women's championships. In this week's United States Cross Country Coaches Association polls, the Colorado men were ranked No. 1, while the Colorado women were ranked fifth. The only other 10 team this week was the ninth-ranked Kansas State women.
Redwine said that although the competition would be stiff tomorrow, the Jayhawks had the potential to finish strong.
Tomorrow's men's 8K race at Buffalo Ranch will begin at 10 a.m. and will be followed by the women's 6K race at 11 a.m.

Sentencing due for student's death
P
By Derek Prater
Lafthow died Aug. 15 of injuries suffered in an accident on Interstate 70
By Derek Prater
writer@kansan.com
Kansan senior staff writer
Alex Wolfson, Omaha, Neb. sophomore, pleaded no contest Friday to vehicular homicide in the death of 18-year-old University of Kansas student Laura Lewich.
Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 8.
The charge is a misdemeanor that carries a maximum sentence of up to one year in jail and up to $2,500 in fines.
The judge could suspend all or part of the sentence and order probation, said Roger Marrs, Leavenworth deputy county attorney.
Billy Breedlove, 43, of Kansas City, Mo., also has been charged with vehicular homicide for his role in the Aug. 12 accident that caused Leftwich's death.
Leftwich, a Skokie, Ill., sophomore,
died Aug. 13 of injuries suffered in
the accident, which occurred on Interstate 70 about seven miles east of Lawrence. She was in the passenger seat of Wolfson's Honda Accord.
At Friday's pre-trial hearing, Breedlove was granted a continuance until Nov. 8. At that time, the judge will hear any pre-trial motions and determine a trial date.
According to police, the accident occurred after Wolfson and Breedlove exchanged gestures and followed one another closely.
Breedlove, driving a Geo, passed Wolfson, and Wolfson pulled behind Breedlove, who them 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.
Breedlove left the scene and contacted investigators the next day about his role in the accident.
He also faces charges of leaving the scene of an injury accident, a misdemeanor that carries the same sentence as vehicular homicide.
Wolfson was transported to Providence Memorial Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., where he was treated and released.
He declined to comment yesterday.

Supreme Court reinforces laws for ABC agents
By Lauren Brandenburg
writer @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The Kansas Supreme Court has upheld laws allowing officers to ask for identification from people whose youthful appearances lead officers to suspect they are drinking underage.
The ruling sends the case of the State of Kansas v. David L. Pritchett back to the Douglas County District Court.
The court delivered its ruling Friday in the Sept. 12 case that could have changed how law enforcement officers can enforce Minor in Possession statutes.
Pritchett, Wichita junior, said he did not have time, did not have his ID and was leaving the party. Wilson did not believe Pritchett, and Wilson said he would not allow Pritchett to leave until Wilson found out who he was.
The case began when David Pritchett, then a 19-year-old sophomore, attended a catered fraternity party on Aug.27,1999. Jim Wilson, an Alcohol Beverage Control agent, asked him for identification.
As Wilson was taking Pritchett to the ABC van, Pritchett ran away. Wilson found him and arrested him.
Don Strole, Pritchett's attorney, argued that Wilson could not stop Pritchett for simply looking young. Looking young, Strole said, was not enough for the reasonable suspicion Wilson needed to detain Pritchett.
The district court originally sided with Strole and threw out the case, saying Wilson did not have the right to make Pritchett show his ID. The Kansas Supreme Court reversed the court's ruling.
One of the issues the Supreme Court considered in its ruling that District Court Judge Paula Martin originally ignored was the wristband Pritchett was wearing.
PRITCHETT CASE
What happened: The Supreme Court reversed a district court ruling that raised questions about when law enforcement officers could demand identification from people. What it means: Officers can stop people who they believe are drinking underage and ask for ID based on the officers' judgments about how old the person looks. What's next: The case goes back to the district court, where David Pritchett, Wichita junior, will be prosecuted.
Wilson argued that Pritchett would have had to show ID to receive the over-21 wristband he was wearing, so he knew Pritchett was lying about not having ID. The Supreme Court said that counted as reasonable suspicion.
Strole said the case would have been clearer if Pritchett had refused to answer the agent's questions and had not been wearing a wristband.
"We knew it was going to be a tough case for them to uphold." Strole said. "The good thing is that they didn't make any new law. We will try to work out something with the (District Attorney's) office. There is no point going to trial."
Pritchett will be prosecuted through the district court.
"I figured it was going to happen," he said. "I didn't mean for it to get this big. I just wanted to beat it in court. I didn't think they'd appeal it."
"I don't really care anymore," Pritchett said. "I'm 21. I wish they would just give me whatever they're going to give me so I can get it over with, because it doesn't affect me anymore."
Prosecutors could not be reached for comment.
Strole said diversion was probable.

The case will go back to Martin, who originally dismissed it.

New system gives students more flexibile dining options
By Kursten Phelps
By Kursten Phelps
writer@kansan.com
Kansas state writer
Kansan staff writer
Students who live in residence, halls can now get three square meals a day — even if they oversleep.
Starting today, residents can use their allotted meals anytime Mrs. E's is open. The change also applies to Oliver Hall and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall cafeterias.
Under the previous system, certain hours were specified for breakfast, lunch and dinner. If a students did not eat one of their meals during each period, they lost that meal.
Now, students can eat their meals during any meal period, said Nona Golledge, assistant director of student housing for dining services.
"It gives students more flexibility and lets them decide when they're going to eat," she
said. "If they choose to eat three times a day, they can have a 10:35 late breakfast, a 1:30 late lunch and then dinner. It provides a little bit more flexibility, keeping in mind their busy lifestyle."
Jonathan Ng, Nunemaker student senator and Leawood sophomore, said his own experience on Daisy Hill and comments from other students prompted him to push for the change.
MEAL PLAN CHANGES
What happened: The Department of Student Housing changed its residence hall meal plan policy that restricted when residents could use their meals.
What it means: Students with meal plans at Mrs. E's, Oliver Hall and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall cafeterias can eat their meals any time those cafeterias are open. They can also get two meals at once from E's Express.
The change
affected E's Express differently, he said. Residents can now use up to two of their daily meals at one time at E's Express.
Dining services piloted the new system at Oliver Hall last week to iron out any problems with the new system. Golledge said.
She said the budget was the major consideration when switching to the new system. The budget, which determines a meal plan's price, is based on the assumption that students will not generally use all of their meals.
Golledge said factor helped keep meal plan costs down, and she expected the "missed meal factor" to decrease under the new system.
"There may possibly be an increase in the meal plan's price sometime in the future because of this," she said. "But you have to keep in mind that with any added service, benefit or flexibility, there's typically a cost attached to it."
Katie Wilkinson, Colorado Springs, Colo., freshman, said the change was a step in the right direction because she had lost money because she couldn't use her meals during the scheduled times.
"I don't know why they didn't do it in the first place," the Templin Hall resident said. "I'm excited about it because you'll actually be able to get what you're paying for."

Students get inventive to find cheap Halloween costumes
Bv Meahan Bainum
Kansan staff writer
Laura Dellinger needed a Tina Turner wig for Halloween, but couldn't find one in heat price range.
For Dellinger and many other college students, Halloween is a time to find the best costume for the least amount of money.
The Wichita senior found a cheap werewolf mask at K-Mart, 3106 Iowa St, cut the face off of it, leaving her with a luxurious Tina Turner-esque mane.
"It looked just like Tina's hair," she said. "Everyone thought it was pretty funny."
This search leads many students on a trek through thrift stores, roommates' closets and discount stores hunting for the perfect costume for the perfect price
Low prices were one of the reasons Kelly Garrity, Atchisor, junior, headed to Sugartown Traders, 918 Massachusetts St., when she was looking for the perfect piece of clothing to make her "washed-out prostitute" costume a success.
- usually less than $20.
The final touch to complement the miniskirt and fishnet stockings she found in her roommate's closet was a faux-leather lacket.
("My roommate) found it, and we knew," Garrity said. "It really added an element of trash."
Garrity, who found the jacket for $12.50, said she thought Sugartown was a great place to look for costumes.
Massachusetts St., is another popular thrift store for college students seeking a fun, fashionable costume at a not-so-high price.
"They had all kinds of stuff," she said. "A lot of '60s and '70s style dresses, a bunch of fun coats and a lot of wigs."
Jennifer McKnight, owner of Arizona Trading Company, said people who were hunting for costumes at the store were generally looking for something unique.
Arizona Trading Company, 734
"Most of our customers are very creative, and they might already have a good idea of what they want," she said. "Or they'll get inspired by something they see in here."
McKnight said students seemed to be buying the crazy things the store offered like fake eyelashes, wigs and brightly colored flamethats.
She said about half of the clothes in the store were under $20 and costumes could be very cheap, especially if students traded clothes in for store credit.
A biking helmet, a paintball mask, a rock-climbing harness and a load-bearing vest were parts of the Topeka junior's costume.
But some students chose not to shop for costumes.
Scott Wadley, a biking, camping and paintball enthusiast, came up with the perfect "Stealth Avenger" costume by throwing together a selection of different things he used every day.
Though Wadley's costume won major points with his friends for inventiveness and cost-effectiveness, he said his costume wasn't perfect — especially when it came to the bicycle helmet and paintball mask.
"Getting the straw through the mask for the beer — that's the biggest hitch," he said.
The image shows a crowded street scene with multiple people walking or standing. The focus is on two individuals in the foreground, who appear to be engaged in an activity, possibly smoking or talking. In the background, there are more pedestrians and vehicles, suggesting a busy urban environment.

Professors recognized with money, awards
Two University professors each received a $5,000 award Friday night at the 23rd annual meeting of the Chancellors Club, a major donor of the Kansas University Endowment Association.
Glen K. Andrews, professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University Medical Center, was awarded the 2000 KU Chancellors Club Research Award for his pioneering work in gene research.
Andrews' work focuses on gene regulation — the way a cell senses and compensates for changes in its environment. He also works on metal deficiency and toxicology, which can affect the immune and reproductive systems.
The research award is peer-nominated. "It means a lot to receive the recognition of your peers and know they appreciate your research," said Andrews, who has been a professor at the Med Center since 1984.
Robert D. Brown, professor of mathematics, received the 2000 Chancellors Club Career Teaching Award for his exemplary teaching.
In addition to mentoring new instructors, he has taught introductory courses, calculus, engineering and science math, as well as courses for graduate students.
Brown, a University of Kansas faculty member since 1963, was nominated by his students and colleagues, who said he consistently made time for students outside of class and worked to make sure everyone understood class concepts.
"When you love what you do, it's great to have people tell you that you've done a good job," he said.
Ten freshmen named Chancellors Scholars
Ten freshman were honored as Chancellors Club Scholars, which recognizes National Merit finalists who have outstanding high school records
Five students from Kansas and five out-of-state students received the renewable scholarships Friday at the 23rd annual meeting of the Chancellors Club, the major-donor organization at the Kansas University Endowment Association.
Kansas recipients are Kendra Rebecca Knight, Baldwin City; Asma Latif, Overland Park; Sean C. Murray, Topeka; Andrew Henry Ralls, Mission Woods; and Chase Richards, McPherson.
Out-of-state recipients are Megan DesCamps, Aberdeen, S.D.; Cara Elizabeth Maple, Bartlesville, Okla.; Matthew James Pirotte, Joplin, Mo.; David Adam Putensen, Lincoln, Neb.; and Kavdee Smith, Omaha, Neb.
Chase Richards, McPherson freshman, who is studying English, creative writing and languages, said he was surprised when he found out he'd received the award.
"I don't know what their criteria were," Richards said. "I just thought it was nice that there seemed to be even more support for academics coming from the University."

Budget remains elusive as election approaches
WASHINGTON — Congress' final budget battle with President Clinton resumed with a session yesterday. Republicans vowed to stay until Election Day rather than accede to the president's demands but held out hopes that a deal could be struck in the next two days.
With nine days remaining before the election, negotiations were inching forward, with the two sides mulling issues that have held up agreement on a bili funding labor, education and health programs.
Only seven of the 13 annual spending bills' have been signed into law, almost a month into the new fiscal year. Possible vetoes hang over at least two others, and the two sides are still far apart on a huge $350 billion bill to fund labor, education and health programs.

Panel discusses African views of witchcraft
By J.D. McKee
By J. D. McKee
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Even though Africa is an ocean away, children there hear scary stories about witches and ghosts similar to stories told to American children.
With Halloween tomorrow, the African Students Association decided it was the perfect time to explain differences between African culture and American culture Saturday in its panel discussion "Witchcraft in Africa."
"Halloween is when Americans talk about spirits and evil things."
said Oben Julius, vice president of the association and Cameroon junior. "It's timely to put it in a week with Halloween."
Julius said he wanted to educate people about what distinguished African culture.
"We want people to know what is different about our culture, which is really different from American culture," he said. "There are a lot of misconceptions about what's going on in Africa."
Peter Ukpokodu, chairman of the African and African-American Studies department and a Nigeria native, said in Africa,
witchcraft was blamed for every thing from miscarriages to incurable diseases.
Ukpokodu also said that although witchcraft was often tied to Satanism in Western cultures, there was such a thing as good witchcraft.
"There are powers in nature, and there are people capable of these powers," Ukpokodu said. "Some use it for good, some for bad."
Clive Nyanumba, Kenya senior,
said children in Africa often lived
in fear because of stories they had
heard about witches.
"Children are made fearful of the
night because of stories they heard," Nyanumba said.
This was the first panel held by the association this year.
"We are hoping to have meetings about the different aspects of our culture about once or twice a semester," said Yibonka Yainjo, president of the association and Cameroon senior.
Yainjo said the panels were open to everyone, regardless of whether they were members of the association. She also said students didn't have to be from Africa to join the association.

Perspective
Queers have same rights as Phelps
how wonderful it will be when queens are free to express their sexuality, and it is Fred Phleps' hate signs that it intends drive down ornate and
instead draw widespread outrage and columns of protest in the Kansan. When Fred Phelps arrives on campus with signs of hate, as he has on many occasions, a majority of the students are offended and disgusted, yet he is allowed to stay and express his opinions.
They are allowed to stand, attacking and persecuting queer students and disturbing many others, because under our Constitution they are protected with the right to free speech. Fred Phelps and his followers display signs with messages such as "God laughs when fags die" and "AIDS = God's solution to fags." As a queer woman, signs and messages such as these are not only offensive but also frightening, alienating and disturbing. Yet
time and time again we see these groups on campus, never once censoring their signs or asking them to go. To do so would be in violation of their First Amendment rights — the same rights queers are entitled to.
PLEASE REQUEST ADDITIONAL PHOTOS.
Fred Phelps' message is extremely offensive and disturbing to me. Seeing such hate is saddening to me, yet I would never ask his right to express his opinions be taken away.
Lea
Carland
guest columnist
opinion@kansan.com
Unfortunately, the consti-
utitional respect Fred Phelps is given when he expresses his message was taken away from a group of students on "Coming Out Day."
Since then, "queers and their obscities" have been hot topics around campus. Every day there has been something in the Kansan by a student who encourages the University that is taking away our rights and who condemns us for expressing them. Yet Fred Phelps freely and openly expresses hate towards queers, and the students, acknowledging Phelps' right to do so, say nothing.
The queer community and lifestyle are routinely either shunned or ignored by the "mainstream" heterosexual population. Every day I must accept heterosexual lifestyle as the norm, and I sit silent, respectful of everyone's sexuality, because queer sexuality is not only ignored but also thought of as "vulgar." For one day, on a "queer holiday" of sorts, I wanted to have queer sexuality in the open and celebrated. The point was never to offend but to spread the word that being queer isn't always fear and alienation but also fun. For one day we wanted students to confront sexuality other than their own, as we queers do everyday. But our messages were erased under the assumption that our messages about queer sexuality were "explicitly offensive," and queers were once again alienated and silenced.
It is interesting what our society and our campus commonly accept as "offensive." It seems to be blindly accepted that the word "pussy" (especially when written before the word "power"), is offensive. It is not only labeled as offensive, but also offensive enough to take away our First Amendment right to free speech. Even more intriguing is that the word "pussy" was deemed more offensive than a sign that says, "All fags will burn in hell."
When we begin to limit free speech, where do we draw the line as to what we can censor? Where will it stop once we start selectively taking away basic rights based on personal views? I fear of regressing to a place of further systematic inequality; it is time to learn from the past and realize free speech is for all, even if you don't have the message someone wants to send. To truly have "liberty for all," we must all have equal rights and be free from selective censorship.
What started out as members of a group happily and freely expressing their lifestyles, sexualities and beliefs has turned into a silencing of opinions different from the majority. This, to me, is the truly disturbing and offensive message that has been sent throughout our campus. Once again, queers here and everywhere have gotten the message that we are sick, our sexuality is offensive, and our voice should not be heard. However, we will no longer accept this as truth. As we wrote on the sidewalk, "We are everywhere" and "We will not be silent," with or without sidewalk chalk.

Last week's question
Were homecoming organizers justified in banning the Stephenson Hall Float of Doom from Friday's parade?
No, the University should not censor students' voices.
No, even though the float was inappropriate for the occasion, the organizers don't have the right to remove it from the parade.
Yes, homecoming is no time for such obscene floats.
I don't care what goes into the homecmoing parade.
12 percent - I don't care what goes into the parade.
Next week's question:
9 percent - Even though the float was inappropriate, organizers don't have the right to remove it.
35 percent - The University shouldn't censor students' voices.

Perspective
Vote 'none of the above' in race for the presidency
I turned 18 years old in 1981 and was able to vote in a presidential election for the first time in 1984. I was very proud to have earned that right and have faithfully fulfilled my patriotic duty every four years in the presidential election
Granted, neither has the charm or magnetism of the current president, but considering his faux pas, that might be a good thing. I doubt either of them will have White House interns showing him their thongs.
both of these men and see the same thing: rich boys with influential parents, each of whom is so far removed from the majority of the citizenry that I cannot really see what difference it would make, no matter which one gets elected.
Each time, although I may not have liked everything about a specific candidate, I was able to find enough to like about at least one of the candidates to vote for him. This time, frankly, I am stumped.
I have been a good citizen and watched all three presidential debates between Democrat Al Gore and Republican George W. Bush, but I find myself in a quandary. I look at
Then there are the other two candidates. Green Party nominee Ralph Nader
Karen Boyd columnist opinion@kansan.com
and Reform Party candidate Pat Buchanan. Well, need I say more? At least Nader has a reputation for actually caring about individual citizens and has spent his career working to ensure that they are treated fairly and has fought for them. But does that make him presidential?
So where does that leave us? For the first time since I've reached voting age, I really see no purpose in voting because there isn't one of the four candidates that I could, with good conscience, vote for.
And let's be totally honest here: Who in their right mind would vote for Buchanani? Once again, he may have quite a following, and as a Christian, I respect him for his work in that community, but does that make him qualified to be president? I don't think so.
The only idea I have is one I got from an old movie I saw recently: *Brewster's Millions* with Richard Pryor. In it, he runs for office, hoping to lose using the slogan, "Vote None of the Above." Not such a bad idea considering what we have to work with this time around.
Think about it. If all people wrote on their ballots, "none of the above," maybe a second crop of politicians would come out of the woodwork and at least give us something to work with.
Am I going to vote? Probably, because I feel strongly about supporting this system of ours.
How am I going to vote? I haven't a clue.

Editorial
Replacement needed for Menninger
Menninger's move hurts local treatment options
The Menninger Foundation's move from Topeka to Houston will leave a vacuum in psychiatric treatment in northeast Kansas. When the foundation relocates in 2002, it will take with it the only comprehensive center for inpatient treatment in Kansas. A new center must fill this vacuum.
Although outpatient services are stronger than ever, following a national trend that emphasizes keeping people in the community while they seek treatment, some people need constant care.
Meningen is the only area center that offers inpatient care for eating disorders, trauma, drug addiction, anxiety, multiple personality disorder and schizophrenia to Kansans.
Across the nation, state mental health hospitals are closing. Topeka has already lost its state hospital. People on disability are not receiving the treatment they need in Kansas. Although emergency treatment is available throughout the state, it helps only people who have been suicidal within the last 24 hours, leaving them without long-term help.
Unfortunately, Menninger chose to relocate to Houston instead of joining the KU Medical Center campus because of a $2.9 million loss in 1999. KU Medical Center should have jumped at the chance and offered a better deal. Gov. Bill Graves supported an incentive package worth about $100 million, put together by the KU Endowment Association, The Hall Family Foundation of Kansas City, Mo., and the state Department of Commerce and Housing. A representative of Menninger said the foundation might have received only $25 million of that money for construction of the new campus, a figure the foundation thought insufficient.
The best alternative for Kansas is already gone. Now Graves should create a financial package to establish new psychiatric inpatient services in Kansas. The 242-acre Menninger campus will soon be empty, and Topeka could use it as the site for a new clinic, staffed by Menniger employees who don't make the move to Houston. Kansans wouldn't accept a lack of medical hospitals and shouldn't accept a state without adequate psychiatric services either.

Indian 'festival of lights' shines in cultural revelry
Students celebrate colorful holiday, Damali Dhamaka with music, dance, fashion
By Loita Schultes
writer@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Spicy food, colorful saris and Indian music helped celebrate Diwali Dhamaka Saturday night in the Kansas Union.
Narinder Singh, former faculty member at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said the holiday
- known as the festival of lights - was one of the largest in India and, for many businesses, began the fiscal year.
"Basically, what this celebrates is the prosperity of what you have obtained during the year," he said.
Indian students represent the largest international group on campus at 170 members, and Saturday night they celebrated their prosperity and culture with a traditional Indian dinner, music and dance, and a fashion show of Indian clothing.
Swapna Obilisettey, Hutchinson senior, and her parents attended the events. They came to the United States 15 years ago in search of greater opportunities, but still retain their Indian culture.
Diwall Dhamaka celebrated the triumph of good over evil. Olibisettv's mother, Vanaja, said.
According to Hindu religion, Lord Krishna was knocked unconscious by an evil demon but then saved when his wife killed the demon with a bow and arrow. "Once he was killed, everybody was so happy, they lit their houses." Vania Oblisetty said.
Vanaja Oblisitet wore a green, yellow and red sari and blouse, which she said represented the colors in India's flag. Saris are lightweight, wrapped outer garments. Other women were dressed in salwar kameez, which are long dresses over pants.
Sippi Singh, a student at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, said both were everyday attire in India. Many of the men were dressed in American clothing, but some were loose fitting shirts and pants. Vanaja Ohlisietty said they were called kuru paiamas.
Besides displaying their clothing, both men and women sang and danced for an enthusiastic crowd. The program opened with a traditional prayer song as four women danced holding candles. Their bracelets jangled, taking audience members to a place far removed from Lawrence.
"For the local community, I believe this is a wonderful opportunity to have a peek at other cultures," said Giri Kokulrangan, graduate student and president of

the KU Cultural India Club, which sponsored the event. Justin Marz, a non-Indian student who attended the event, agreed.
"I think it's a really good opportunity to get to experience a whole other culture," said the Jefferson City, Mo., senior. "After all, that's kind of what college is all about. It's a learning experience."

Farmer's maze open despite weather, regulations
By Rebecca Barlow Special to the Kansan
Local farmer Richard Strong hopes he can find his way out of debt with his corn maze this fall.
Strong, who farms for a living, found a way to make extra money. He converted the 4.2 acres of his sweet corn field into a haunted maze.
Strong uses the money he earns from his haunted corn maze and pumpkin patch to make up for the money he lost on his crops because of the summer drought.
Festivals of fall
"I lost $6,000 to $8,000 last year due to the drought," said强 to strong, whose farm is located five miles east of Massachusetts Street on North 1500 Road. "I am trying to make up for that."
Richard Strong, a local farmer from rural Douglas County east of Lawrence, wants county officials to pay more attention to established small farmers. He converted part of his farm into a maze in hopes of working his way out of debt after the summer's drought harmed his crops. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN
But the drought hit Strong's haunted corn maze as well as his crops.
He lost at least 8 acres of his sweet corn this year and harvested his corn crop 30 days early.
But the problems the drought created weren't the only problems Strong encountered.
Strong couldn't start working on his maze until he received his temporary business permit from Douglas County.
"I lost $6,000 to $8,000 last year due to the drought.I am trying to make up for that."
Richard Strong
He said he applied for the permit May 28 and didn't receive it until two months later on July 29.
Strong said the county issued permits to other farmers in the agricultural entertainment business faster then it did to him.
"If I am not allowed to run this business in a timely manner for my customers and for my crops, I can't make it," Strong said. "I never will make it."
The delay forced him to make a simpler maze. Instead of using a lawn mower to mow down 8-inch to 10-inch corn stalks, he had to use a tractor and to mow down shoulder-high stalks.
Keith Dabney, director of zoning and codes for Douglas County, disagreed that Strong received his permit after everyone else. Dabney said that anyone who applied for a temporary business permit had to go through the same process and local rules.
Strong was able to reopen the last three weeks in October after he paid a $500 bond.
The county wanted Strong to close at 8 p.m. last year. He argued against the closing time, saying that it didn't get dark until 7:30 p.m.
The county forced Strong to shut down last year because he didn't have the proper permit.
This fall, the maze is also open until 10 p.m. The pumpkin patch is open from 10 a.m. to dusk.
Strong said the county didn't take an active interest in the farming community anymore.
"A haunted business has to be dark to be a business," Strong said. "If it is not dark, it's not haunted." He was able to extend his hours to 10 p.m. after he paid the bond.
"I'm trying to have fun, remain in the farming business and am trying to make some sort of a living out of this," he said.
Strong said he wanted to cover his expenses this year.
"The county used to be in favor of farming." he said. "Today they are more interested in how the county is developing with housing, sewer and water. They are not conducive to doing anything for the farmer."
In spite of the drought and his problems with the county, Strong managed to open hjs maze.
Because of expenses, Strong has increased his prices to $8 for adults, $6 for students and $4 for children under five. Customers can receive a $2 discount if they bring a food donation.

Family's farm offers seasonal activities
By Megahn Snyder Special to the Kansan
The summer's heat did not stop the Starr family from preparing for their first Fall Festival.
The festival, which runs through tomorrow, celebrates the fall season with fall-related activities.
The festival offers a corn maze where people of all ages can get lost in the stalks of corn cut into the shape of Noah's Ark.
The farm is open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. It is located on Decatur Road, just off of Highway 24, 8 miles west of Perry.
"I spoke to Chuck Marr at the K-State Extension Office and he told me about the web site that gave me information for the maze."
said Gary Starr, co-owner of the maze.
The family withstood the summer temperatures to build the maze from the rows of corn in their small backyard cornfield.
Julie and Gary Starr said the maze was the most difficult part of the festival. Gary Starr and his oldest son Michael
There's the whole gamut of a business here that the family's involved in."

"There's the whole
had to continually cut the corn in the summer heat because it kent growing back.
"We ended up going through the maze with a paint sprayer painting everything that needed to be cut," Gary Starr said. "Then we sprayed that with Roundup to kill the corn."
Customers can buy pumpkins the Stars already picked or ride the hay wagon to choose their own.
Julie Starr said the pumpkin harvest was very good this year, despite the summer drought.
"We have an irrigation system that helped out the lack of rain this summer." she said...
Pumpkins ranging in size from mini, one pound pumpkins to 35 pound pumpkins grow in 3 acres of the farm.
Gary Starr measures each pumpkin against an already priced pumpkin of similar size.
At about twenty-five cents per pound, local grocer's pumpkin prices are less expensive for smaller pumpkins, but the Stars give customers a better deal with the bigger ones.
The Stars started their farm as a project for their home-schooled children to learn business.
Gary Starr says his pumpkins will not rot as soon because the family picks them later than the grocers do. The Starrs started their farm as a project for their
The three children, who range in ages from 8 to 13, learn about the products, how to sell them and how to count change back to the customers.
Gary Starr said his children also learned to explain their products because they sell their produce at the Lawrence and Topeka Farmer's Markets.
In the summer the family sells strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and rhubarb. The Starrs employ 10 additional people during the summer, but Gary Starr says that the big decisions are still made by the family members.
"There's the whole gamut of a business here that the family's involved in," he said. "And we have family meetings in order to discuss issues or decide if there is anything that needs to be
anything that needs to be changed."
Julie Starr says that the festival is a nice break from the summer berry farm and that the family would most likely do it again next fall.

'Hawks lose despite gallant effort
13
The football rests in the palm of Kansas defensive back, Andrew Davison. He failed to pull off the interception because of the collision with Texas Tech's Derek Dorris. Close was not close enough for Davison or the rest of the Jayhawks, who lost to the Red Raiders 45-39 in Saturday's game at Memorial Stadium. Photo by Nick Krug/KANSAN
It took four quarters, four surrendered touchdown passes and Quincy Roe wearing only a towel before a teammate offered him some help.
By Jason Franchuk sports @kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Roe, Kansas' junior cornerback, had been quietly enjoying a solid, no-frills season without the benefit of a lot of credit for the vast improvement of Kansas' pass defense.
After giving up all four passing touchdowns in Saturday's 45-39 loss to Texas Tech, he was given tight coverage from reporters inquiring about his performance. He dutifully answered questions while wearing around his waist only a small white towel. That is, until senior safety Carl NeSmith came to his aid.
"Sure, nobody wrote about him before when he was making all the plays," Nesmith yelled at the crowd that approached Roe. "Now everybody's in his face. That's (crap)."

distance - specifically within the 20-yard line — that he would be targeted.
"It was in the red zone where I started having problems," he said. "They kept running all sorts of plays to get me."
Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury completed 32 of 48 passes, on par with the number of passes he averages per game. He chewed up Kansas' man-to-man coverage that Kansas coach Terry Allen insisted was the best strategy. The statistic that shocked Allen was when he looked at the stat sheet and stared at how many interceptions Kansas had
For more on this weekend's game, results around the Big 12 Conference and a statistical breakdown of the game,

Jayhawks in tourney despite loss to Tigers
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's soccer team ended its regular season with a horrible loss to a rival team, but the six-year program earned a chance to end the year in a better way.
Although Kansas lost to Missouri 4-1 on Friday in Columbia, Mo., an Iowa State loss to Nebraska gave the Jayhawks the final bid to the Big 12 Conference Tournament.
Kansas and Iowa
Kansas 1
Baylor 4
Despite the loss,
Kansas qualified for
the big 12 Conference
tournament for the first
time since the confer-
ence was established.
State finished eighth in the conference, but the Jayhawks' 3-1 victory against the Cyclones on Sept. 29 at SuperTarget Field gave them the tiebreaker advantage.
Kansas coach Mark Francis said the tournament berth defined the strides made in Jayhawk soccer.
"The Kansas team's never made it to the tournament in five years," he said. "So I guess this is a big step the program is making."
Senior defender Kyle Watts said she was also excited about qualifying for the postseason tournament.
"We are finally putting our name out there and letting everyone know that we are getting better," she said.
However, the team was not happy about how it played Friday.
"It was pretty bad," Francis said.
The Tigers snarled at the 'Hawks from the start.
"Oklahoma beat Nebraska, so they beats-
able," he said. "It's just going to depend on
how we show up to play. It's going to be the
key, I think."
Nebraska shut out Kansas 3-0 on Oct. 1 at SuperTarget Field in Lawrence.
Missouri freshman Adrienne Davis posted the Tigers on the board in the 14th minute with her two-yard shot. Just 17 seconds later, Mizzou senior Jennifer McMaster added a goal following a solo run from midfield. Missouri went up 9-0 in the 20th minute on midfielder Amy Timmerman's goal.
Despite all those obstacles, Francis said his team had a good chance to upset the No.3 team in the country.
Kansas' lone goal in the game came in the 21st minute, when freshman midfielder Maggie Mason fired a long-range shot that skimmed the post and dropped in behind Missouri goalkeeper Stephanie Krauwczyk.
Kansas increased its level of intensity in the second half, forcing Kraczyk to log five saves, but Davis's second goal of the game gave a finishing blow to the Jayhawks.
Kansas will make its first appearance in the postseason tourney at 11 a.m. Wednesday against top-seeded Nebraska at the Blossom Soccer Stadium in San Antonio, Texas.
"We had so many chances to score and just didn't capitalize." Watts said.

Missing fans should have supported Kansas team
Kansas football fans have been urged in the past to wear crimson and blue clothing on designated game days. Apparently, Saturday was 'Wear Aluminum Day,' because a large portion of the crowd blended in with the bleachers.
The Jayhawks had a chance to extend their winning streak to three games.
Saturday's attendance was estimated at 26,000, but that was a generous number. Sparse crowds have been nothing new at Memorial Stadium, but fans had a good reasons to show up.
Bowl representatives were on hand
Kevin representa 18 of our invitees.
But, as usual, another road team came into Lawrence to witness fan apathy. And the student section, which has usually been predominately full, had a lower turnout.
The world doesn't revolve around football, except in Lincoln, Neb., so it's understandable that people will miss some games.
But a traditional empty north bowl and other vacant areas throughout the stadium are ridiculous.
Some people say they will go to games 'when the team starts winning,' but not having a home-field advantage tends to hinder success.
Crowd noise disrupts opposing teams. When opponents close in on the north end zone, no noise in the north bowl makes converting in the red zone easier. Same goes for seating near the south end zone.
Walkmans were invented for a reason. But for fans who didn't attend Saturday, I'll fill you in on what you missed.
Maybe people stayed away because Nebraska vs. Oklahoma was on the tube.
Kansas and Texas Tech combined for nearly 1,000 yards of offense. The two teams also combined to throw 90 passes.
Senior tight end Jason Gulley, who had trouble pulling in wide-open catches against Southern Methodist, snared a touchdown catch against Texas Tech.
He totaled three catches for 35 vards
Senior quarterback Dylan Smith didn't throw an interception.
He coughed up a fumble, but also had three rushing touchdowns and threw for two more, along with 327 yards passing.
Parts of an enlightening conversation between a livid Terry Allen and an official was apparently picked up by the official's microphone and broadcast through the PA system.
An incomplete pass to junior wide receiver Harrison Hill on the game's last play ended a Kansas comeback in a game the Red Raiders led by 21 in the third quarter and 17 in the final stanza.
If these examples don't excite Jayhawk supporters and bring them to the stadium in droves perhaps concern will.
College football is a cash cow — just ask Nebraska.
The Big Red has nationally prominent programs in virtually every sport. Money translates into success and Nebraska football has provided plenty of both, which trickles down to other sports.
Most sports at Kansas depend on football and men's basketball. Basketball's success helps through postseason payouts, TV contracts and attendance, but football's payouts are even larger.
The major concern with filling the stadium involves the general public, not students.
But if after graduation students decide to reside in the area, contributing to football attendance would make Saturdays on the hill more enjoyable. Other Jayhawk sports wouldn't mind the revenue increase either.
And I'm sure the stadium would look a lot nicer filled to the brim with crimson and blue.

Sooners blast 'Huskers in battle of nation's best
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
In Norman, Okla., No. 1 Nebraska (7-1, 4-1 Big 12 Conference) jumped out to an early 14-0 lead in the first seven minutes against No. 2 Oklahoma (7-0, 4-0). But the Sooners dominated after that, holding the Cornhuskers scoreleast the rest of the game and pulling off a 31-14 victory.
Oklahoma quarterback Josh Heupel completed 20 of 34 passes for 300 yards and a touchdown. Heupel's string of passes without an interception ended at 145 when 'Husker Troy Wachthorn picked off a pass in the third quarter.
Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch completed 12 of 27 passes for 133 yards and a touchdown and also ran 24 times for 103 yards, but Cornhusker running backs Dan Alexander, Correll Buckhalter and Willie Miller combined for only 90 yards.
No. 24 Texas A&M 26, No. 19 Kansas State 10
Texas A&M (6-2, 4-1), playing at home in College Station, Texas; jumped out to a first half lead of 19-0 against K-State (7-3, 2-2) and held on to beat the Wildcats.
No. 20 Texas 48, Baylor 14
275-pound Aggie fullback Ja'Mar
Toombs scored three touchdowns.
In Austin, Texas, Baylor (26, 0-5), which hadn't scored in three consecutive games, shocked Texas (6-2, 4-1) by scoring a touchdown on their first possession. The Longhorns then scored 34 consecutive points, taking a 34-7 lead.
The loss makes it extremely difficult for the Wildcats to land a Bowl Championship Series berth.
Texas quarterback Major Applewhite completed only 18 of 42 passes but gained 297 yards, breaking the Longhorn record for career passing yards.
Iowa State 39. Missouri 20
Iowa State running back Ennis Haywood, playing at home in Ames, Iowa, ran for 214 yards and two touchdowns, and the Cyclones clinched their first winning season in 11 years. The Cyclones (6-2, 3-2) also became eligible for their first bowl trip since 1978.
Colorado 37. Oldahoma State 21
Colorado (2-6, 2-3) handed Oklahoma State (2.5,0-4) its fifth-consecutive loss.
Missouri (2-6, 1-4) scored first, but Iowa State then scored 26 consecutive points, taking a 26-7 lead.
Colorado quarterback Craig Ochs, playing at home in Boulder, Colo., became the first Buffalo to run for a touchdown, pass for a touchdown and catch a touchdown pass in the same game.

Jayhawks defy stats with superb offense
By Allan Davis
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Coming into Saturday's Kansas- Texas Tech football game, the Red Raider pass defense was ranked No.1 in the nation, yielding an average of only 123.6 yards per game.
The Jayhawk passing offense, led by senior quarterback Dylen Smith and ranked 86th in the nation before Saturday's game, had gained an average of 179.7 yards per game.
Texas Tech also was highly ranked in total defense. It was No.9 in the nation, holding opponents to only 277.5 yards per game. The Kansas offense came in ranked 70th in the nation, gaining an average of 351 yards per game.
On Saturday, however, the Jayhawks proved that statistics can be misleading.
Smith shredded the Texas Tech defense for 327 yards and two touchdowns, senior running back David Winbush added 120 yards rushing and the Jayhaws almost managed a come-from-behind victory against the Red Raiders.
Although Kansas lost the game 45-39, it gained a total of 499 yards and the offense demonstrated its ability to move the ball against the Texas Tech defense.
Winbush said the Jayhawk offense had improved as the season progressed.
"It just says a lot about our offense, how we're getting better every week," he said. "We're making strides. Our offensive line is playing better and better by the week."
Smith said the Jayhawks were not intimidated by Texas Tech's defensive reputation.
"We felt coming into this game we could move the ball on anybody," he said. "We obviously knew Texas Tech was a good team after seeing what they did to Kansas State last weekend. We just proved to everybody that we can play with anybody in this league."
Junior wide receiver Roger Ross, a Garden City Community College transfer who knows how to win after coming from a 10-2 junior college program, grabbed seven passes on Saturday for a total of 91 yards.
Ross said he had confidence in Kansas' offensive ability.
"We can drive on anybody," Ross said. "We can beat anybody we play. We've just got to come to play every day."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said the Jayhawks had enough offense to have won the game.
"For us to score 39 points against them. I would have suspected we probably were going to win the game," he said.

Valiant effort ends in defeat
with 11:40 left after Derek Dorris burned Roe for the final time on a 12-yard touchdown pass. But just like Roe, Kansas never quit.
Continued from page 1B
Tech's lead was cut to 10 after senior quarterback Dylan Smith's 6-yard touchdown run, but Tech pushed it back to 13 on a field goal. Another quick Kansas drive led to a Smith touchdown run from 1 yard out, and the score was 45-39 with 2:02 left.
Trivia answer:

The odds didn't look good, but Allen just wanted one drive to put the game and the season on the line.
"They've had a lot of opportunities to quit," Allen said. "If they wanted to quit, they would have quit here."
With the ball on its own 40. Smith completed a 14-yard pass to junior wide receiver Termine Fulton to generate some excitement in a sparse crowd of 26,000. After an incomplete pass, Fulton caught a 24-yarder to get the ball to Tech's 22-yard line. With four seconds left, Smith and Allen agreed on a Hail Mary, but the pass to junior wide receiver Harrison Hill was batted away when the Jayhawks needed it most.
"I kept on telling everybody don't quit," Smith said after his career-best 327 yards passing.
The Jayhawks now are 4-4 and must win two of their next three games to become bowl eligible — no small feat, considering the stretch starts Saturday at Nebraska.
"We're all we've got," Nesmith said. "We can't get fans to come to our game. We have to stick together."

Hollywood prepares for possible strikes
The WGA contract, which covers 11,000 writers, expires May 1 and the guild contracts, covering 135,000 actors, expire July 1.
Among key issues for the writers are increases in residual fees for TV shows and movies, and changes in screen credits. The foreign residuals formula, for instance, hasn't changed in 30 years despite a sharp increase in the number of U.S. shows sold overseas.
For actors, issues include cable TV residuals and compensation for foreign usage.
The WGA has decided to forgo the more informal talks of recent years in favor of full negotiations — an approach last employed, unsuccessfully, in 1988.
"It's about the little guy, our rank-and-file member," SAG president William Daniels said.
LOS ANGELES — In 1988, a Moonlighting episode cut abruptly to a backstage scene featuring stars Bruce Willis, Cybil Shepherd and protesters armed with "On Strike" nickel signs.
"I've never seen such rhetoric starting so tar in advance," said writer-producer Marshall Herskovitz.
fondly
QUOTATRIX.COM | WWW.KONNAGA.COM
A strike would be a tragedy, CBS Entertainment president Nancy Tellem told a recent industry gathering.
The Associated Press
Now, Hollywood is braced for a potentially darker sequel. Both the Writers Guild of America and the unions representing TV and film actors are threatening to go on strike next year, shutting down the industry. A prolonged walkout could delay the start of the fall 2001 television season, affect the number of new movies, and exact an economic toll on Hollywood-dependent businesses.
"We're still suffering from the last strike in 1988," Tellem said. "We have to do everything we can to resolve this."
Even before negotiations begin, and months before the guild contracts end, pessimism has invaded Hollywood. Some producers are trying to coax extra scripts out of TV writers and studios are fast-tracking films as safeguards.
Explaining there had been a screenwriters' walkout, Willis called on cast member Curtis Armstrong to amuse viewers. Armstrong grudgingly donned a turban to lip-sync to the pop tune "Wooly Bully."
Talks are unlikely to begin before next year.
The bit was funny; the 22-week strike wasn't. It played havoc with the start of the fall television season and cost the entertainment industry millions.

'Huskers stomp 'Hawks
By Sarah Warren
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas became Nebraska victim
No. 21 on Saturday night.
Kansas at Nebraska
9-15, 3-15, 11-15
The volleyball team fell to No.1 Nebraska in three games, improving the Cornhuskers' record to 21-0 and 13-0 in the Big 12 Conference.
In front of a 3,899-person scarlet sea at the Nebraska Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb., the Jayhawks dropped three games 15-9, 15-3, 15-11, in their second meeting with the "Huskers."
"They were tougher than earlier this season," said Danielle Geronyon, senior outside hitter. "They are so good."
However, coach Ray Bechard said his Jayhawks came out with good play as well.
"We played pretty well at times in the first and third games," Bechard said. "They were able to do some things with their serve which gave us some trouble, but for the most part, I thought we responded pretty
well."
Serving was truly the Cornhuskers' real weapon, recording seven more service aces than the Jayhawks.
"They served really aggressively." Bechard said. "They had 10 services, which was the most we've given un all year."
Nebraska, which had been holding teams to .098 average hitting percentage, was its typical self, holding the Jayhawks to .087 hitting percentage while recording a .263 of its own. And although Kansas' hitting percentage was at its season low, senior outside hitter Amy Myatt led both teams in kills, recording 10.
Another positive for the 'Hawks came on the defensive front. Kansas dove for 43 digs, recording six more than the 'Huskers.
"We were able to get some stops."
Bechard said, "We did better getting in front of their hitters, too. We made their hitters take some shots they weren't comfortable with taking."
Although Kansas was playing the No. 1 team in the country, the Jayhawks found the environment inside the Nebraska Coliseum almost inviting, rather than upsetting, as it has been against other ranked Big 12 teams.
"The crowd was amazing," Geronymo said. "We'd win a rally and they'd clap for us. They really appreciate good volleyball."
Playing in a positive atmosphere won't be a problem for the Jayhawks in their next match tomorrow night when the Jayhawks take on Iowa State at 7 p.m. at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. The Cyclones are 2-20, 0-13.
"They are very youthful," Bechard said of the Cyclones. "They are just trying to get comfortable with their roles."

The KU cross country teams took some small steps toward improvement in the Big 12 Conference Championships on Saturday in Boulder, Colo.
Cross Country
The Kansas men improved one
Coach Stanley Redwine said that the Jayhawks' performance Saturday should be viewed as a success and that he was pleased with the fan following the teams had received.
The women then hit the big 12 Championships, finishing sixth. The women also finished one spot higher in the championships this year, posting an 11th place finish.
"Our fan support for the race was great and the athletes appreciate it greatly," Redwine said. "Each athlete gave their all today. For the future of our team, it looks exciting."
Leading the way for the Kansas men on Saturday were juniors Charlie Gruber and Mark Meneffe. Gruber, who has put in season-best times in both the 1999 and 2000 Big 12 Championships, was the highest-placing Jayhawk in 14th place. Meneffe finished only two seconds behind Gruber in 15th place.
"I'm excited to have runners in the 14th and 15th slots." Redwine said. "Our goal was to do our best as a team and individually, and as a whole, we accomplished our goal.
Gruber and Menefee both ran great races."
Colorado dominated the men's race Saturday, sweeping the top four places and placing five of the top six. Oklahoma State finished in second place and Missouri placed third.
Colorado's women also were crowned Big 12 Champions on Saturday. Defending champion Kara Wheeler set a course record in winning individual honors with a time of 19:38. Kansas State and Missouri finished second and third.
Colorado coach Mark Wetmore said his team's performance on Saturday had come as a pleasant surprise.
"To be honest, I did expect us to do this well." Wetmore said. "We thought of it as CU versus the Big 11. We are at an advantage being on our home course and having our fans here to support us."
Freshman Laura Lavoie led the Jayhawk women for the fifth consecutive meet on Saturday with a 40th-place finish. Kansas sophomores Bridget Morrison and Eve Lamborn, and freshman Paige Higgins also finished in the top 60.
Redwine said he was pleased by the women's determination.
"We ran aggressive in the beginning and that may have cost us," Redwine said. "All in all, each one of them went out and competed their very best."
The Jayhawks now have two weeks to regroup before heading to Ceder Falls, Iowa, for the District V Regionals on Saturday, Nov. 11.

he Kansas Turnpike Authority is pleased to announce the completion of this year's roadway replacement construction project in the Topeka to Lawrence area. We do not plan to have a major roadway replacement project next summer. We all need a break.
This completed section of roadway is part of an ongoing program to completely replace the roadway from Kansas City to Topeka, the most heavily traveled portion of the 236-mile Kansas Turnpike. The project is time consuming and difficult because the original concrete has to be removed and the new roadway pavement completely rebuilt. The last section of roadway that must be rebuilt will be between mileposts 202 and 210 and is tenatively scheduled for 2002.
Believe us when we say that we couldn't have done it without you, your loyalty and your patience. We're proud of what we've accomplished recently and, when you travel the road between mileposts 184 and 189, we think you will be too.

Med school receives gift to construct center for brain research

Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Medical Center will be building a brain research imaging center, thanks to a large gift from KU alumni yesterday.

The Hoglunds said they decided to help the Med Center because Forrest Hoglund was the chairman of a fundraising campaign for the University.
In addition to the donation, the center will receive $1 million in state funding for equipment.

region for years to come."
and 38th streets in Kansas City, Kan. Michael Welch, Vice Chancellor for research, said the center would use new brain imaging equipment to research problems such as developmental disabilities, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and stroke.
New equipment will include two machines for conducting magnetic resonance imaging, commonly known as MRIs, and one for magneto encephalography.
Welch said the Hoglund Brain Imaging Center would be one of only three facilities of brain imaging in the nation.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he thought the advanced brain imaging center would have a positive effect on the Med Center's enrollment.
He also said the new center would demonstrate that the University had one of the best brain imaging programs in the country.
"I think more students will enroll because I think students want to be somewhere where they can get a good, quality education," he said.
The new center also will be able to research and detect the earliest signs of disease in the human genome.
Welch said the new center would be beneficial to children because the new equipment would not use x-rays, chemicals or high magnetic fields.
riemenway said this donation would benefit not only the university but also have an impact on Kansas City and the surrounding area.
"This facility will benefit children and adults throughout the region for years to come," he said.

SUBURBAN SHOWDOWN
The planning commission will hear complaints tomorrow about a proposed ordinance that will reduce from four to two the number of unrelated people permitted to live in a home in single-family neighborhoods. Residents cite problems ranging from parking to loud parties to a lock of children enrolling at city-center elementary schools as reasons to reduce the number of unrelated people who can live in single-family neighborhoods.

Students, home owners and landlords face off about how many unrelated people can live in single-family neighborhoods
By Matt Merkel-Hess Kansan staff writer
M
Mary-Elizabeth Debicki knows all too well how to throw a college party.
Thumping music, crowds of people, cars lining both sides of the street, firecrackers after midnight. And don't forget the red beers cows dotting the lawn.
When there's a party on her street, she doesn't sleep until the music stops.
But Debicki isn't a student — she's a retired resident in a single-family neighborhood she's lived in since 1987.
Debicki is among Lawrence residents who support a proposed city ordinance that would reduce from four to two the number of unrelated people who could live in a home in single-family neighborhoods.
The proposal has pitted residents against student-renters in a battle of the neighborhoods — with different lifestyles at the heart of the conflict.
Home owners say their quality of life is declining because renters have no pride of ownership and don't care how their actions affect other residents.
"We bought into what we were told was a single-family neighborhood."
Mary-Elizabeth 'Debicki
resident on Applegate Court
They say landlords are buying property to make money off students who should be living in student housing, apartments or other high-density areas of town.
The home owners say groups of students can pay more for rent, raising the cost of homes. This forces young families to the edges of town and decreases enrollment at city-center elementary schools.
Students say the ordinance unfairly targets them and is the result of a few party houses. Many say they choose single-family neighborhoods because they like the quality of life and the lower cost.
Landlords say proper enforcement of city noise and litter codes would solve the problem. They also say that they are simply filling the gap as neighborhoods and long-term residents age, and that young families with children are moving to suburbia because they want newer, larger homes.
In the middle are city commissioners who want to preserve older neighborhoods and encourage growth. These five men will ultimately decide the fate of the proposal.
THE NEIGHBORS
Debicki and her husband bought their house at Lawrence Avenue and Applegate Court thinking they had found a home they could retire in. Debicki, and her husband, Andy, a professor of humanities and western civilization, and Spanish and Portuguese, found a neighborhood that was a quiet mix of families and older residents.

Filmmakers document Stull hauntings
STULL 5
COUNTY ROAD
By Meghan Bainum
writer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
A group of three women have video equipment set up. They are investigating paranormal activity. Suddenly, they hear howling. It comes closer ... and closer. They begin to run. The only sound audible, besides the howling, is their frantic breathing and muffled sobs.
This isn't a scene from the new Blair Witch movie or MTV's FEAR. It's a scene from Investigation Stull, a documentary being produced by a group of KU students about the possible hauntings in the abandoned church and cemetery in Stull.
Five sophomores clockwise from left: Krissy Martin, Overland Park; Chris Martin, Prairie Village; Quinn Gorges, Wichita; David Utter, Minneapolis, Kan., and Sarah Homan, Overland Park, put together an investigative documentary about legends of paranormal activity in an abandoned church and cemetery in Stull, Kau. For years, KU students have made the journey out to Stull to try to find what some say is one of the seven entrances to hell. Portrait by Nick Krua/KANSAN
They have gone there several times late at night during the past few weeks. They heard the noises and had strange experiences each time, and now they have the video to prove it.
Quinn Gorges, Wichita sophomore, said she realized that some people would think the incidents were made up or in the minds of the people involved, but that the fear shown on the video was very real.
"I've sat around the campfire and told ghost stories before and heard bumps in the night before," Gorges said. "But this is something else. This is something different and wicked."
The legend of Stull has been passed down through generations of KU students. The legend says that Stull church was the site of several grisly hangings and murders and now is one of the seven entrances to hell. The legend also says the church and graveyard are haunted by devil spawn, including werewolves.
The legend of Stull was spread even further when the band Urge Overkill released its song "Stull
Part one" in 1992. Stull also was featured in the book *Haunted Kansas* by Lisa Hefner Heitz.
The students decided to undertake the project after an initial visit to Stull.
They describe hearing howling on several different occasions
that, at first, sounded like coyotes. However, the longer they stayed in the church and the cemetery at Stull, the louder the howling got—and it began coming from every direction. When they left the grounds of the church, they said the howling ceased.
"With these at Stull, they were constantly getting closer to us," he said. "They were surrounding us, too, which was definitely nothing I've ever heard of before. It was like we were in the middle of the circle. We were the hunted."
Though being in the church and the cemetery at night is considered trespassing by police, Homan said the group was going to try to get permission from the Douglas County Police Department to investigate the haunting further.
Vandalism has been a constant problem for the cemetery in the past few years. Criminal trespassing in the cemetery can carry fines up to $100, and Douglas County Sheriff officials keep a close eye on the area during the Halloween season.
David Utter, Minneapolis, Kan., sophomore, visited the church with the group the night before the filming took place. Utter said he didn't think the noise came from normal coyotes.
Homan said she was not sure if the experiences in Stull were actual hauntings or some leftover energy from a time passed. Though many think of the cemetery as an ordinary place enlivened by cheap thrills and pranks, Homan said there was something more.
"I would honestly say there is an energy there that cannot be explained," she said. "It's uncomfortable, and it's an utterly lonely feeling of doom. I want to know what exactly it is that makes me afraid of Stull."

The Kansas University Endowment Association provided more money for the University last year than ever before.
CAMPUS
Endowment contributes record amount of money
KU alumni and friends donated $42.3 million outright after contributing $38.1 million in 1999. The remainder of last year's funds came from pledges, bequests, when friends and alumni included monies for KU Endowment in their wills, and other gifts, said John Scarffe, director of communications for the association.
"Those outright contributions can be in cash, stocks or securities," Scarfe said. "Pledges are donations spread out over a period of years."
Endowment expenditures for KU students, faculty and programs in fiscal year 2000, which ended June 30,
totaled $65.1 million — a 20 percent increase from $54.1 million in 1999 and 47 percent higher than the
$44.4 million it provided in 1998.
KU Endowment provided $16.1 million in scholarships, $2.9 million in loans, $1.8 million in fellowships, and $430,000 in awards and prizes for students.
Record fund raising and high return on investments raised the value of the association's total assets to $1.07 billion — a 3 percent increase from $979 million in 1999.

KU student arrested on charges of assault
A man threatened a security guard with a 2-foot stick with a leather strap on the end early Sunday morning at Naismith Hall, Lawrence police said.
Jeffrey Robert Gleason, Crystal Lake Ill., sophomore, was booked into the Douglas County Jail at 5:23 a.m. Sunday on charges of aggravated assault.
Lawrence Police Det. M.T. Brown said the guard approached because the man was sitting in his car in a handicapped parking space with his stereo blaring.
Brown said the guard asked the man to move the car because he did not have a handicapped permit. The man then said he was going to get his "boys" and shoot the guard, but did move his car.
The man came back down to the lobby with a group of his friends about 30 minutes later, Brown said. The man had the stick in his pants and told his friends it was for the security guard.
Brown said the man approached the security guard with the stick, and the guard restrained him.
Gleason does not have a bond set.
Johnson County student assaulted with handgun
A 19-year-old Johnson County Community College student was assaulted with a handgun early Saturday morning in the 4000 block of Overland Drive, Lawrence police said.
Lawrence Police Det. M.T. Brown said the student was in his garage with some of his roommates when someone who knew his neighbors came by and started making comments about the student and his roommates. A fight broke out, and the student was hit while trying to break it up. One of the males pointed a dull
gray metal revolver at the student's head. The student's friends quickly pulled the student inside the house.
Brown described the suspect as a white male between 20 and 23 years old. 5-foot-10 and about 175 pounds.

Carnahan's widow will accept Senate position
NATION
ROLLA, Mo. — The widow of Gov.
Mel Carnahan said yesterday she
would do what her husband would
have wanted — accept an appointment
to the U.S. Senate if voters pick
her husband over Republican incumbent
John Ashcroft.
Jean Carnahan has never held public office but was offered a Senate appointment by Gov. Roger Wilson if Missouri voters choose the Democratic governor who died in an Oct. 16 plane crash.
Media polls released during the weekend, and taken after Mel Carnahan's burial, showed the Senate race still statistically tied, as it had been for months.

Israel to deploy guerrilla units against Palestinians
JERUSALEM — Israel will take the offensive against Palestinian gunmen and deploy army units trained in guerilla warfare, the deputy defense minister said yesterday.
The death toll in more than a month of fighting rose to 141 yesterday. Israel's deputy defense minister, Ephraim Sneh, announced the army was changing its tactics in dealing with Palestinian gunmen who had been shooting at Jewish settlements and army outposts in the West Bank and Gaza. Sneh said troops would no longer only respond to Palestinian fire but also take the initiative.

This presentation explodes the idea that the present period is the first "information age". In addition, it explores the stunning power of poetry in pre-revolutionary Paris and the attempt by the police to suppress it for fear of its subversive effect. Darnton follows the path of this poetry through forms of media, now overshadowed, to provide a vivid glimpse into this long-forgotten information system.

Some students who have invested in technology stocks also have experienced losses.
Todd Peters, Wichita senior, has invested in the market for the past three and a half years. When he started, he said he invested in technology stocks because they had the most potential.
Kyle Ramsey/KAHSAN
"If you get good research, it's potentially a good bet," he said.
But the Nasdaq composite, which charts technology stocks, has dropped more than 500 points in the past month.
Peters said the stock had stayed close to the same price he paid for it until about a month ago, when it dropped to about half that price.
"It shocked me when it happened, but I've seen that kind of thing happen before," Peters said. "I haven't lost a lot in the long run."
"When it goes down, it's a chance to make more money," he said. "It might be time to take a chance."
Willy Chen, Topeka sophomore, also has lost money recently, but like Peters, he isn't scared away by falling prices.
Peters said the drop in stock prices also could have positive results.
"When you lose money, it forces you to stay in the market until the price goes back up." Chen said.
Chen invested in technology
companies such as America Online. He said the price had fallen 25 to 30 percent in the past month.
"It's a simple correction in the market," he said. "It'll rebound next year."
Although he has come out about even overall in the market, Chen said he had lost about $2,000 in the past few weeks.
Paul Koch, professor of business, said a drop in the market was inevitable.
"By all traditional measures, the market was extremely high," he said. "We should have expected some correction."
Roch advised students to consider long-term potential rather than short-term benefits because the stock market would outperform the time frame.
Koch said the technology market had been on a roll lately and a lot of that momentum was based on very optimistic forecasts, but many of the expectations were overly opportunistic.
"What we're seeing now is a bloodbath," he said.
Although the performance of the tech stocks has been volatile, Koch said, other parts of the economy have not been hit by this correction in the market.
Koch said older companies with more solid business histories had continued to thrive. He said people continued to buy those companies at higher prices because there was a new focus on companies with more stable outlooks for the future.
Ryan Gerstner, Frankfor senior, has been investing in such a company. He said he invested in Philip Morris because of its low price.
He said the price of the stock had continued to rise in the past month while tech stocks had been falling. During the past couple of months, Gersner said he had made about $700 to $800.
"At the time, the dividend was incredible because the price was beaten down because of all the lawsuits," Gerstner said. "It was risky to other investors, but I knew it would rebound."

Association invests long-term

Kanson staff writer
The KU Endowment Association does not plan to adjust investments to make up for falling stock prices in recent weeks, a representative said Thursday.
John Scarffe, director of communications for the association, said that based on past experience, the association did not expect long-term investments, such as endowed funds, to be affected by record losses in high-tech stocks in the past two weeks. That's because endowed funds are invested for a five-year period, giving them enough time to make up for losses such as last week's before their return comes in, he said.
"We pay attention to the market on a day-to-day basis, but the investment philosophy of the Endowment Association is to have long-term investments that are diversified." Scarffe said. "We watch the five-year cycle as opposed to the day-to-day market."
As of June 30, the association managed about $699 million in long-term, endowed funds. An additional $110 million lies in short-term investments, which can be withdrawn at the University's request at any time. But that money is invested primarily in fixed-income investments such as bonds that are not subject to the volatility of the stock market, Scarffe said.
Diversification means investing funds in a variety of ways to avoid taking big losses, such as those investors experienced when the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 hit their lowest points of the year two weeks ago.
The Endowment Association Board of Trustees, made up of KU alumni, requires that 15 percent of the association's endowed funds are invested in international stocks, an additional 45 percent in domestic stocks and 10 per cent in treasury bonds. The remaining 30 percent can be invested as fund managers see fit, Scarffe said.
"We pay attention to the market on a day-to-day basis, but the investment philosophy of the Endowment Association is to have long-term investments that are diversified."
John Scarffe KU Endowment Association
"We have one manager who has 50 percent in stocks and 50 percent in bonds," he said. "Another manager has 25 percent in one and 75 percent in the other."
Paul Koch, professor of business, said because high-tech stocks in areas such as biotechnology, fiber optics, personal computers and wireless phones had fallen this month, many investors had moved their money into more stable sectors.
"In the last couple of weeks, we've seen a bloodbath in the technology stocks," Koch said. "But we've seen some people taking their money out of that sector and into stocks with a history of more stable earnings."
— Edited by Shawn Hutchinson
That includes investing in markets in Europe, Asia and Latin America, especially when the U.S. market is as volatile as it is now, Koch said.
"U.S. stock has done so well for so long, it's at least possible that the time has come for the U.S. stock market to underperform other markets in the world," Koch said.

KU Public Safety Officers treat Halloween as any other working day, said Sgt. Troy Mailen.
Even though one serious incident has occurred in the past, Mailen said Halloween was generally quiet on the KU campus aside from smashed pumpkins.
"You'll see pumpkin remains and that kind of thing," Mailen said. "But as far as academic buildings go, there really isn't much going on."
Mailen cited an incident from a couple of years ago when the popular movie Scream came out during which a group of pranksters dressed as the Scream villain and visited sororities.
"The majority of it were pranks,"
Mailen said. "The girls were concerned for their well-being, and the hype of the Scream movie intensified it."
Mailen said the Scream pranks did not single out a particular location and lasted more than several days, but it didn't become a problem until crimes were committed.
"It took a bad turn when someone actually did enter a sorority house and made off with some property," Mailen said. "Criminal charges were probably not the intended result of their joke."
Julie Geiger, Leavenworth senior, lived in the Alpha Delta Pi sorority that year and remembers the incidents. She said the pranksters would come to the basement windows and look in, which made members of her house
fear going outside.
"There's usually a lot of people around our neighborhood on Halloween, so it wasn't a big deal," Geiger said. "But it made it kinda scary to go out in the parking lots."
Mailen said even though more officers weren't on duty Halloween night, the officers were told to play close attention to what was happening around town, much as when a rival athletic team visits.
"It's just like when KU and KState play." Mailen said. "We tell the officers to keep an eye out and heighten awareness."
Mailen said students should be aware that what could be a joke could also be construed as serious to the victim. He also stressed that in the nature of Halloween, students should use the buddy system when walking at night.

Perspective Ebola outbreak raises specter of new pandemic
How would you feel about sleeping next to a body bag, observing your family and friends being hauled off in bags similar to your own and not knowing when you might be strenched with the same fate? This ominous sign of death has been handed to patients in Uganda for the past several weeks, all of them suffering from the effects of the Ebola virus — nearly 60 are dead and 150 infected. It takes only one undetected case to cross into another country for a pandemic to start.
Ebola is arguably the deadliest virus known to humans. Nearly 90 percent of those that contract Ebola and its related filoviruses do not survive the infection. The disease the virus causes is well known as having the most visually graphic and painful symptoms. Ebola causes an illness in its victims that initially seems
In prior outbreaks of Ebola, many of the patients have been diagnosed with malaria, so they were never isolated from other patients or hospital staff. As soon as the symptoms worsen, it is too late for nearly everyone who has come into contact with that patient.
RUSSELL HILL
The virus progresses rapidly from the cold-like symptoms to a painful hemorrhagic fever in which blood begins oozing out of body orifices and even through the skin. Some physicians have described the effects of the virus as the "chaotic melting of the body's internal organs." Clearly, Ebola is a virus that the human race does not want to confront on a global scale.
To put in perspective what a pandemic would be like today, we must look back to the influenza outbreak from early 1918. Nearly one quarter of the world's population became infected with the virus, which was first diagnosed right here in Kansas. Within weeks, the entire world felt the effects of the outbreak and, by the end of 1918, nearly 30 million people had died. Antibiotic medicine was in its infancy then, yet we survived, largely because of the "disappearance" of the virus 18 months later. Now consider the highly infectious and more deadly Ebola virus and the unfortunate killing potential it could have on a global scale, when nine out of 10 infected will succumb its symptoms.
Corey
Snyder
columnist
opinion@kansan.com
In modern society, with increased knowledge and technological potential to fight diseases, we do have a hope of isolating and solving the mysteries of Ebola. However, many experts feel the odds are for us to be at a greater risk for a pandemic than finding a cure. With international flights carrying more people every year to new and previously isolated parts of the world, transmission of a virus such as Ebola is not hard to imagine. In fact, a strain of Ebola carried in monkeys imported from the Philippines was found in the United States in 1989. Fortunately, it was contained before any such epidemic could occur.
The Red Cross and World Health Organization fear that the problem with infectious control could continue to grow without proper education. The recent Ebola outbreak is an excellent example of how a local, isolated case can spread to neighboring towns quickly.
When doctors initially isolated Ebola in Uganda, several traveling workers already had been infected after attending the funeral of the first victim. The culture's funerals consist of washing the dead body before burial. This unfortunately spread the virus to many at the funeral. Even with the symptoms of the virus being expressed quickly in those infected, the guests at the funeral were long on their way to other towns in Uganda.
Lack of education, along with cultural differences, has made treatings this outbreak difficult. Many local villagers believe that the "spirits" are upset with them and do not believe in anything such as a virus.
It must be the policy of the United States and the Centers for Disease Control, as well as an important concern for people around the globe, that research dollars and precautions be taken the instant a deadly virus develops. Also, hot zones around the world must be further examined to determine the exact causes of the strains of Ebola. Ignoring the problem for too long will have lasting repercussions for our generation.

Perspective
U.S. backing of Israel needs to have limits
When I read that PLO chairman Yasser Arafat had declared that Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak should go to hell, I was shocked. Nobody seeking peace should say anything close to that
at least in public. But why did he do it?
at least in public. But why did he do it? Both groups want the same thing — and they are not willing to share it. They want to control the city that is sacred to both of them. I admit that this is a very simple way of looking at the matter, even though I see politics as the art of making difficult things seem, and be, very simple.
The United States has been pushing meetings since President Clinton won the U.S. presidential election in 1992, hoping to reach an agreement between both sides. Since the Oslo Agreements in 1993, we saw many historic moments. They include the handshake between Yitzak Rabin and Ariel Sharon, and the Nobel
Cássio Furtado columnist opinion@kansan.com
After Rabin's death in 1995, the peace process started to go down the tubes. Rabin seemed to be an extremely reasonable individual, and his death was harmful to the future of peaceful negotiations. After his death, we have seen leaders such as Benjamin Netanyahu, who was a constant threat to peace, and now Barak, whose recent actions save me the effort of writing about him.
We all know that the United States backs Israel unconditionally and that any agreement is OK to the U.S. government as long as the Arabs bend their knees to the continuous
Peace Prize they received in 1994. But were they meaningful to the peace process?
succession of aggressions from Israel.
But now I see the U.S. media claiming that Arafat is not a good leader. Suppose that your people are being oppressed and that the organization you are the chair of is fighting for worldwide recognition. That seems difficult already, doesn't it?
But on the top of this, the world's greatest political and military power is on your enemy's side. However, even with all that, you are still able to control that people for years and years. Does that make you a bad leader?
What makes me say this is the fact that I analyze this entire situation from the outside. Even though I am certainly not an expert in Middle Eastern politics, I am impartial. I do not have a side on this issue. I only want both groups to be respected, as they should. Lives can be saved if both sides can get together with an impartial mediator.
The United States is biased regarding this matter. Foreign relations — specifically with Israel — interferes so much with internal politics that it is impossible to have a fair peace process brokered by the United States.
I know that the United States will continue to back Israel, and that's OK. Every country has the right to define its allies and to stand by them when that's necessary. But this cannot be unconditional. Limits need to be defined so that both sides can live together. I still believe that there are means of avoiding a long war in the Middle East — and, as always, most of them come from the United States.
Most countries in the region have condemned Israel's recent actions. But is all that worth anything if the United States keeps protecting Israel in spite of its actions?
Wouldn't permanent peace be the best way to back Israel?
The next president needs to make sure that its ally is well served.

Band's move energizes team,fans
The football team, fans and KU Band will benefit from band's relocation.
The University of Kansas Athletics Department made a commendable decision last week in response to concerns from students and other fans of the Kansas Jayhawk football team. It decided to move the Marching Jayhawks back into the student section. This was in quick response to concerns expressed by the students, alumni members of the Marching Jayhawks and even Terry Allen himself. This move was an excellent decision made by the department to provide an answer to growing concern.
At the beginning of last season, the Marching Jayhawks were moved from next to the student section to the north bowl of Memorial Stadium to provide the majority of the stadium with the most amount of sound possible from the band. Since then, students, alumni and fans who attended the games complained that it was more difficult to hear the band in the new seats because it was too far away. Now, the band has been moved into the middle of the student section for the remainder of the season.
The concern was sparked by the game this season against K.State. The KU Marching Band was sitting in the north bowl in the midst of a solid purple mess. The KState band was seated on the south end of the stadium, and the students and fans could hear it better than the KU band. In most Big 12 schools and across the country, marching bands have traditionally been placed in the student sections right behind the opposing teams to distract them. Now, this is finally the case once again at the University.
The decision to move the Marching Jayhawks was well deserved and needed. The band now will be playing to the students, alumni and fans of the University. This will increase the involvement of the students and fans in the game and hopefully help bring the atmosphere in Memorial Stadium to an all-time high. If the atmosphere in Memorial Stadium is outstanding, it can do nothing but help to win more football games.

Letters to the Editor
Columnist takes irresponsible position advocating voter apathy
I am appalled at the decision to run Karen Boyd's guest column yesterday, "Vote 'none (of) the above' in race for the presidency." In this column, Ms. Boyd comes dangerously close to advocating that students abdicate their right and responsibility to vote!
Does she not realize that this is one of the most closely contested presidential races in United States history? This is the first opportunity many University of Kansas students have had to exercise their right to vote, and for a columnist to suggest, even facetiously, that readers waste their votes in the vague, misguided hope that "a second crop of politicians would come out of the woodwork and at least give us something to work with" is asinine.
The crop of politicians running for election — Gore, Bush, Nader and Buchanan are the ones who have made the decision to run, and they are the ones we have to work with. None of the four candidates is perfect, but because each stands for very different policies and ideologies, it is up to voters to decide which candidate embodies the beliefs with which they are willing to live for the next four years.
Ms. Boyd claims she sees "no purpose in voting" this year, which is her individual choice to make. But for her to encourage readers to squander their votes on a writen "candidate" suggested by a 15-year-old movie is irresponsible, not to mention insulting to those of us who intend to cast meaningful votes only after carefully weighing the pros and cons of each candidate.
Voter apathy is always a problem, but this year it could actually affect the outcome of this election. For the Kansan to permit a columnist to suggest that readers waste their votes is especially remiss.
Sexual assault case mocks ideals of justice in United States
Carrie Williams 1997 KU alumnus
The turn of events last week in the investigation of an attack on a KU soccer player highlights the fact that American justice isn't easy.
I was horrified Thursday morning when I read about what seems like the cover-up of a crime, committed by football players and covered up with the silence of teammates.
covered up with the essence of truth.
An open message to anybody who saw the attack and said nothing: You need to rethink your concept of loyalty.
You should be loyal to the concept of justice, not your teammates.
Ideals last longer than personal friendships. People come and go, but ideals are fixed marks that can guide us when we need guidance the most.
In this country, we have committed ourselves to the ideal of acheiving justice within a system of law.
The football players who witnessed the attack and said nothing are allowing criminals to walk. They are supporting a society in which mothers, sisters and daughters can be sexually assaulted by men who are beholden only to themselves, and not the law.
But most importantly, they are violating the ideal of justice they said they would live bv.
This is harsh logic, and it cuts both ways. According to an article in Friday's Kansan, "All evidence considered in
assault, DA says," charges will not be filed against the two football players because of insufficient evidence.
Most likely, this is a result of the victim not notifying the police until two months after the attack. Evidence and good eyewitnesses are hard enough to find two hours after the attack, let alone two months.
If we have a right to live under the protection of the police, then we have a responsibility to report crimes to them as soon as we can.
To be fair, she expected the department to mete out a harsher punishment. But in America, punishment for crimes is the business of the people, not the Athletics Department.
I paraphrase Kevin Costner, who played an attorney in JFK. We've all been raised in a time when life was good. We think justice happens because it is just, and right happens of its own accord. But life teaches us that this is not the case. Justice must be carved out by individuals.
To the soccer player: I think you made an error in judgement, but that does not excuse the crime done against you. Do not rest until justice is served.
To anybody who can help her: Do.

Columnist cheapens history through inflammatory rhetoric
Though I appreciate that by publishing John McCool's editorials you may be trying to balance the generally liberal views of most of your columnists, I think it's time to revoke his soapbox.
McCool's most recent column, on "appeasement" in the Middle East in Thursday's Kansan, is more than just misguided. It is the work not of a conservative with a different take on things but of an irresponsible provocateur.
When he writes, for instance, that lies "drip from the mouths" of "vicious" and "depraved" Arabs, he is clearly not seeking to further the debate in a meaningful way. He is only adding fuel to a fire that needs no encouragement.
In another piece of empty and inflammatory rhetoric, McCool compares the Palestinians to the Nazis and their struggle for justice and self-determination to the Final Solution. It would be hard to find a less apt historical parallel. An impoverished and dispossessed people is not like a ruthlessly aggressive world power; rocks in slings are not like tanks and gas chambers. We cheapen history when we use it in this way.
Surely there is someone else who could more responsibly fulfill your need for a conservative voice.
Lawrence graduate student
Columnist bases argument on extremists' viewpoints
that such virulent, anti-Jewish statements reflect the sentiments of the Palestinian population as a whole, or even of the political elites that represent them?
The problem with John McCool's piece entitled "Appeasement a poor tactic in Middle East" is not a pro-Israeli bias written from an enlightening, well-informed perspective, but a pro-Israeli bias whose central thesis, that Palestinian issues should not be taken seriously, is based entirely on quotations of radical and reactionary Arab leaders, Muslim clergymen and state-run publications. While I will not question the credibility of the sources, I will ask this: Does the author truly believe
In the Oct. 26 edition of the Kansan, I stumbled across the most unprofessional piece of political commentary I have yet to read in this publication.
I would like to ask John if he has ever learned of the equally heinous comments made by Israeli leaders. Or, for that matter, throughout history, of similar proclamations made by either Black or Native-American representatives within our own country. If he were to discover such quotations, would he feel that those communities also have no legitimate cause that is worth discussing? Are they also "Nazis," bent on completing what "what would have taken place at Auschwitz?"
The lesson to be learned here is that one cannot successfully evaluate the political desires of a particular group (such as Palestinian Arabs), or question their commitment to peaceful co-existence with others (such as Israel Jews) by basing such criteria solely on the outlandish speeches or writings of those within the community who articulate extremist attitudes.
Matthew Davis Lawrence senior
Columnist's argument blatantly one-sided
I have to reply to the column written by John McCool. First, this has to be the most unprofessional editorial I have ever read. Secondly, the opinion makes the presumption that all Palestinians want to kill all Israelites.
Did he happen to go look at the pictures and article on the BBC Web page roughly three weeks ago? The pictures showed an Israeli soldier holding a Palestinian father and son at gunpoint. The father took several bullets to protect his son. After the father was slumped over from death, the soldier killed the boy.
The column attempts to show that no Israelites think reciprocally to the quoted remarks of the sermon. His one-sided argument is a demonstration of sheer ignorance. If he believes in what he wrote, then he should find some different and balanced facts so it can possibly have a touch of credibility.

University should have "all or nothing" obscenity policy
I must respond to the chalking issue and some inconsistent applications of removing "filthy language." Two Fridays ago, my mom, sister and I were walking near Wesco when we saw a chalking that basically said, "E eat pussy and be on TV."
What makes me question the lack of "aerose the board" application was the quote in last Tuesday's UDK about Wayne Pearse's policy on what chalkings should be removed. Let me reiterate his quote. The quote stated, "I tried to look at things like my mom or my children are standing beside me. I would have removed any filthy language."
What I wonder is, did he see the chalking from two Fridays ago? It was in a place where visiting "children" would have seen it. Could it be that he did not have it erased because it pertains to the "assumed" people behind it? That is just food for thought. My point is either erase all "filthy" language or none of it. My final point is that there will always be speech that most of us do not like to see. That is reality. Deal with it.

Herpes spreads on campus despite education, condoms
By Melissa Davis
By Melissa Davis
writer@kansas.com
Kansas staff writer
Despite educational campaigns to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, herpes continues to plague students.
Genital herpes is a contagious virus that is spreading, especially among college students, said Mora Berberich, St. Louis junior, and former peer health advisor at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
According to the American Social Health Association, one in five people older than 12 in the United States has genital herpes. The rate has increased by 30 percent in the last two decades.
Berberich said herpes was a terrible disease because it could be contracted even with the use of birth control. Students may rely on condoms to prevent it and not respect its contagiousness, she said.
"This STD is very scary because it can be transmitted even with a condom on."
"The most common misconception is people think that if they avoid penetration, then they won't get an STD. That's not true."
Henry W. Buck
head of gynecology at Watkins Memorial
Health Center
she said.
Henry W. Buck, head of gynecology at Watkins, said the only way to avoid spreading the disease was to avoid contact with an infected person.
"The most common misconception is people think that if they avoid penetration, then they won't get an STD," he said. "That's not true."
Buck said people might not know they had herpes because symptoms can be hard to see. But symptoms that do appear might be clusters of blisters on or
around the genitals, itching and burning in the genital area, a general run-down feeling, or swollen lymph glands.
Because of the increase in cases, Buck advises people to help prevent the spread of herpes by washing after touching sores and to avoid sexual contact until sores cleared up.
Berberich said students shouldn't be embarrassed to get tested if they saw any type of lesion.
"Society has typed people with an STD as promiscuous, but some people only have two to three partners in their life or don't have sex at all and still get an STD," she said. "People need to throw that myth right out."
Berberich said people needed to talk about sex with their partners even if in committed relationships.
"People need to realize that when you are sleeping with someone you are sleeping with all of their partners," she said. "Just because you love somebody doesn't mean you don't need to use a condom." — Edited by Erin Adamson

Trainer helps clients build physiques, boost energy
By Melissa Davis
writer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Paul Morgan, Shawnee sophomore, has always been interested in the human body, so he decided to turn his interest into money and become a personal trainer.
Many are glad he did.
Nancy Hale, Lawrence resident, said she joined Total Fitness Athletic Center, the gym at 925 Iowa St. where Morgan works, in December to get in shape.
"I started working out on my own but decided in March I wasn't getting the results I wanted," Hale said.
So she hired Morgan for help.
Morgan said hiring a personal trainer could be beneficial—especially to people who didn't know how to lift weights properly or were hindered in simple daily activities because of their lack of strength.
Karen Loudon, staff physical therapist at Watkins Memorial Hospital, said training to increase strength could help prevent injuries, unless performed incorrectly.
"Physical strength is important for overall health and can be useful for everyday activities like walking up and down hills." Morgan said.
"We do see students who were injured from weight-lifting because of bad form or doing too many reps when fatigued," she said.
Morgan said there were other perks to being physically strong, such as increased energy and a faster metabolism.
"There are a lot of ways to do things wrong in a gym. A person is not going to reach their
goals if going about it the wrong way. It's like taking a class — I teach you how to lift correctly."
Paul Morgan
Shawnee sophomore
Even with the benefits of strength training, Morgan said many people, especially women, had misconceptions about training with weights.
"Women are afraid lifting will make them bulk up, which is untrue," Morgan said.
He also said that when people wanted to lose weight, they thought lifting would hinder their progress instead of help it.
"I see people all the time that want to lose weight, but they think the last thing they should do is lift, but physical strength is important for overall wellness," he said.
Morgan said personal trainers did more than just count reps, but he thought of his time with his clients as a hands-on learning experience.
"There are a lot of ways to do things wrong in a gym," he said. "A person is not going to reach their goals if going about it the wrong way. It's like taking a class — I teach you how to lift correctly."

In the last five years, many of these residents have moved out, and landlords bought the properties to rent to students, she said. Houses designed for families with two cars now have four or five students and their four or five cars, filling the streets with overflow parking.
"We bought into what we were told was a single-family neighborhood," said Mary-Elizabeth Debicki. "In '87, it was totally single-family dwellings. Now, we are overwhelmed with cars and noise."
Debicki, who was director of the Office of Study Abroad for 11 years, said she was not anti-student.
"We wouldn't be here if it weren't for the students," she said. "We're anti turning our neighborhoods into places with too many cars because they weren't designed for that."
THE STUDENTS
He and his roommates each pay $240 per month.
Ian Tice, Topeka sophomore, moved off campus after his first year at the University and lives with three roommates on the 1700 block of Indiana Street, south of campus, in a single-family neighborhood.
He said his house didn't cause problems on a street that is home mostly to elderly couples.
"It's really fantastic to live within walking distance to KU and be out of student housing." Tice said. "An apartment wouldn't be as enjoyable as a house."
"The ordinance is a horrible idea, and I was really shocked when I first heard about it," Tice said. "We're not bad people; we don't harass the neighbors, and we don't cause problems."
A SIMMERING ISSUE
The City Commission dealt with the same issue last year under a different proposal.
A year ago, the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods, representing residents of single-family neighborhoods angered by problem renters and landlords, proposed a citywide landlord registration. Student Senate supported the proposal.
Proponents hoped it would give residents and renters a way to deal with party houses, absentee landlords and unkempt rental units. But the proposal fizzled, mostly because of questions about how the city would finance and enforce the system.
The association then suggested the ordinance in order to limit the number of unrelated people who could live together.
Arly Allen, a representative for the association, said the University of Kansas had contributed to the problem by not providing more student housing as enrollment increased. According to city estimates, renters occupy 52 percent of all Lawrence housing units.
It cited parties, noise, unkempt houses, streets overflowing with cars, lack of affordable housing for families and declining enrollment at city-center elementary schools.
The Office of Institutional Research and Planning said that in 1996, 13,746 students, or 58.9 percent of the student population, lived off campus. In 1988, it was 50 percent. No data are available on the number of students living in high-density areas versus single-family neighborhoods.
Each year, the Department of Housing and Urban Development determines fair market rent for rental homes and apartments. In HUD data published in March, that value for Lawrence was $547 for a two-bedroom rental home or apartment, $761 for a three-bedroom and $876 for a four-bedroom.
Allen said unrelated renters could each pay $350 per month, or $1,060, for a three-bedroom house and $1,400 for a four-bedroom. He said unrelated renters were
pricing moderate- and low-income families out of renting in central Lawrence.
Instead of young families buying houses as they come on the market, Allen said that landlords bought the properties, knowing they could make more money renting to students.
"The rents are being charged because we've got 14,000 students who are competing to rent in Lawrence," he said. "You create a shortage of housing, and the elementary schools are faced with declining enrollment."
Holly Krebs, Student Senate Rights Committee chairwoman, said the city should use the new nuisance ordinance to crack down on party houses. If students are forced out of single-family neighborhoods, the demand for apartments will increase rent rates, she said.
"I think there's a shortage of affordable housing, period, in Lawrence," Krebs said. "《The Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods) thinks families need affordable single-family housing, but the reality is that students need affordable housing as well."
She said student renters were not necessarily the reason families weren't living in older, single-family neighborhoods.
"There's been a huge, huge expansion of western and southeast Lawrence — where they have bigger yards, newer schools and less traffic." Krebs said. "The American dream is to live in the suburbs with a white picket fence and to have your kids play in the street. The nature of a core-city neighborhood can't provide the same amenities."
A FADING SUNSET
Bill Staples, professor of sociology, lives in Sunset Hills, a single-family neighborhood west of campus. He moved there with his family nine years ago. During the last five years, some houses on his street have become rentals, including one next door.
"I wasn't counting on having eight or nine cars out in
"The little old lady who lives next door said she learned a long time ago to keep the windows on the north side of her house closed," Neuteboom said. "I think it's healthy to keep all these people together. Everybody adds their own particular thing to a neighborhood."
"This is a great neighborhood," he said. "It's just kind of comfortable living amongst people who are not students."
He said a neighborhood such as Sunset Hills, which is 35 to 40 years old, was in transition as older home owners moved out. At that point, the neighborhood is most vulnerable — and needs young families the most.
Neuteboom and his three roommates can see Lawrence High School.
He said he and his roommates invited neighbors to their frequent backyard parties, which usually had 50 to 60 people and two kegs of beer.
Betty Alderson's home is in the 1900 block of Maine Street. When she and her husband, Donald, moved in 43 years ago, the house was new and near the outskirts of town.
The only complaint they've had was after a party this semester on a Sunday night, he said.
Definition of family in other Big 12 cities
Staples is concerned about noise, trash and the investment he has made in his house and neighborhood. He said student renters would one day become homeowners — and would then know how he felt.

As more homes on her street have become rentals, she said, she receives two to three offers a year to put her home on the market. The agents always mention that many of the homes on her street already are rentals. She said young families were funneled into new developments.
"You won't interest young couples in a house that isn't in good shape and they're going to be kept up at night," Alderson said.
"It's so loud that I hear it
Alderson blames real estate agents.
THE LANDLORDS
Bob Ebey, vice president and representative of Landlords of Lawrence Inc., calls the proposed ordinance unneeded and unfair. He said families were abandoning older neighborhoods because they wanted larger garages and bigger rooms and didn't want to pay the maintenance required of many older houses.
"Landlords are buying properties, and that's true," Ebey said. "They're converted to rentals because people are selling houses to move to the outskirts of town."
He said that if the city enforced its laws, many problem houses, renters and landlords would be eliminated. The city does not monitor neighborhoods for violations but responds to specific complaints. Ebey said a more comprehensive inspection of rental houses, similar to one already in place for apartments, would be more effective.
"The neighborhoods are jumping up and trying to take maybe the easiest way out," he said. "But the majority of the run-down houses are owner-occupied."
The city already has problems enforcing the limit of four, he said, and the proposed ordinance would be even more difficult to enforce.
Gene Shaughnessy, chief building inspector for Lawrence, said the city responded to all complaints about environmental or housing codes, such as the code limiting to four the number of unrelated people who can live in a single-family neighborhood.
He said enforcement of that code was a cat-and-mouse game because of the difficulty of documenting the number of residents.
"Sometimes we get a variety of answers," he said. "It's a difficult code requirement to enforce."
Cruising East Lawrence in his white Ford F150 pickup, Mark Lehmann, vice president and general manager of L & S Management Services LLC, shows off properties he owns with his partners. Lehmann also owns the Old Home Depot, 1045 Pennsylvania St., a home-reimodeling store.
The homes are all neatly painted and stand in sharp contrast to the blighted properties that riddle the neighborhood. Lehmann says the proposed ordinance would force landlords to decrease rent - leaving them less money for upkeep and maintenance.
He said landlords would have a hard time enforcing the ordinance because the city prohibited discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and landlords couldn't ask housing applicants about marital status.
"My firm belief is that marriage or relationship should not be prerequisite to anybody's housing." Lehmann said.
David Corliss, assistant city manager, said he thought landlords and property owners would be able to enforce the proposed ordinance because they could ask prospective tenants to list the names and relationships of each person who would reside in the housing unit.
"The fact that we're changing the numbers is not changing the ability of landlords to enforce the law," he said.
NOT ALL RENTERS ARE STUDENTS
Scott Bliss, a Lawrence resident since 1990, owns a house in North Lawrence and rents rooms to two friends.
He bought his house in 1997 to save money on housing. His monthly mortgage payment is $80 more than the rent he once paid for a one-bedroom apartment. Bliss said he had lived in residence halls, the Oread neighborhood and south of campus before purchasing his home.
"There's only so much you can take until you say, 'I want to live in a same place,'" he said. "And I didn't want to live in one of those cardboard cut-out, ant-farm apartment complexes."
Bliss said the proposed ordinance would affect more unmarried, renting residents of Lawrence than students.
See HOME on page 8A
"The purpose of me buying a home three years ago is so that when I get married and have kids, I'll already have a house," he said. "I'm just trying to get ahead, and now I've been told that it's against the law."

Home owners, renters agree on problems but not solutions
Continued from page 7A
TWO IS THE LONELIEST NUMBER
Arly Allen, Betty Alderson and other members of the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods say limiting to two the number of unrelated people who can rent in single-family neighborhoods will make it easier to figure out how many people are living in a house, making enforcement easier.
"When you have two students or two people, they don't behave like a group," Allen said. "The behavior pattern mimics a family and is not likely to get people in a neighborhood upset.
Sarah Dehart, Lawrence senior, moved into a house on the 1900 block of Maine Street in August. She said it was a trade-off to move farther away from campus
and downtown, but she and her three roommates were looking for a nicer place to live.
"I really enjoyed living in the student ghetto because I was between downtown and campus and around a lot of my friends," she said. "But the noise was insane. I lived in a place that basically had paper-thin walls."
Under the proposed ordinance, only two people could rent Dehart's house, making the $1,200 monthly rent virtually impossible to pay, she said.
"In some respects I can understand how certain members of the neighborhood are frustrated because students are living in their neighborhood, but I can't relate to it," Dehart said. "We don't have keggers, and no one is playing loud music at all hours of the night."
RESOLUTION...
Both sides agree on the problems but disagree on solutions.
Arly Allen and the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods say the ordinance is the most practical option.
"If Lawrence doesn't do this, the whole center of the city will decay," Allen said. "If that happens, we don't believe Lawrence will be a very attractive community, even for the students. Nobody wants to have the University surrounded by slums."
Holly Krebs and students say the ordinance would not revitalize the city and that more immediate solutions, such as landlord registration and enforcement of the nuisance ordinance, should be revisited.
"Unrelated people are not inherently
bad renters or bad neighbors," she said. "So ordinances to address these problems should target the issue of bad renters or bad neighbors, not the demographic of unrelated people."
Even as the neighborhood residents, students and landlords debate the issue, Betty Alderson feels the noisy encroachment of renters in her once quiet neighborhood on a daily basis.
Her street, which once bubbled with the laughter of children, is now lined with cars — a symbol of the mobility of today's students.
For every good renter on her street, she says there are the bad ones — the loud
"Students are pretty decent people usually," she said. "But it's just not a compatible lifestyle in a neighborhood of single-family homes."

Jayhawks to challenge 'Husker past
By Jason Franchuk sports@kansan.com Kansan writerwriter
Kansas will play away from home Saturday, but it's familiar territory.
The Jayhawks have been here, in this situation of trying to rally back from a tough loss, plenty of times before. The six-game schedule Kansas coach Terry Allen implemented three weeks ago has been cut in half, starting at Nebraska for a 2:30 p.m. game on national television. If Kansas does not win two of its next three games, its season will end again without postseason play. "I think we still have a chance," said junior cornerback Andrew Davison.
Allen has seen this a few times before, this season alone. Kansas lost the opener against Southern Methodist. It regrouped with two consecutive wins against Southern Illinois and Alabama-Birmingham. Kansas then lost to Oklahoma — a loss that doesn't look so bad now considering how well the Sooners have played this year — and Kansas State before Kansas reeled off two more wins in a row, against Missouri and Colorado.
It's hard to classify Nebraska a must win because of how good the 'Huskers are, but it's fair to say Kansas has played its best in its most desperate times.
But Nebraska is desperate, too. Oklahoma is the unanimous No. 1 team after trouncing the then-No. 1 Cornhuskers 31-14 last Saturday, dropping the Cornhuskers to fifth. And just like last year, Kansas must now face Nebraska the week after a Cornhuskers loss. The only difference is this year the game is in Lincoln, Neb.

"it's going to be hard," said senior safety Carl Nesmith. "But it's just like last year. I feel we have a good chance of beating them."
"I believe they will be able to come back," Allen said. "They've come back every time so far. They came back pretty well on Saturday."
The Jayhawks insist they're as confident as ever, despite the 45-39 loss to Texas Tech Saturday that dropped their record to 4-4 (2-3 conference) and made their bowl eligibility hopes more difficult.
Last year, however, Kansas went into the Nebraska game on a higher note. The Jayhawks shut out Missouri, 21-0, and then clung with the Cornhuskers until a late fourth-quarter surge. Nebraska, historically noted for playing especially well coming off a loss, was expected to pummel Kansas. But Nebraska barely escaped, 24-17.
Still, Kansas trailed by 17 points in the final quarter against Texas Tech. That gives Allen reason to believe that his team can respond again.
— Edited by Amy Randolph
History is nowhere near Kansas' side. The last time the Jayhawks beat Nebraska was 1968 (at Lincoln). The last time Nebraska lost two consecutive regular-season games was 1976. The last time Kansas played closely with the Cornhuskers, a 21-20 loss in 1993, Kansas lost 45-17 the following year.
Rugby team at the top
Club heads into last fall games 6-1
By Michael Sudhalter

Kansas sportwriters
Kansan sportswriter
Despite stereotypes about rugby being a male-dominated sport, the Kansas women's rugby club has evolved into one of the region's elite groups.
The 25-member club has defeated Missouri, Nebraska twice, Wyoming and two area club teams en route to a 6-1 record. The team's lone backcame at the hands of Northern Illinois, one of the Midwest's stronger programs.
The club has benefited from the returning nucleus of six seniors as well as the solid contribution of seven newcomers.
"The number of people that return every year along with overall team fitness have helped this team," she said.
Team captain Heidi Spann, Fayetteville, Ark., senior, said different factors contributed to the team's success.
Spann also cited the spirit and competitiveness of the club's new members as a prime reason for the team's impressive record.
"This year's newcomers are phenomenal athletes who haven't been afraid to show their aggressiveness." she said.
Club president Megan Danner, Naperville, Ill., senior, said she was pleased with the club's vast improvements and attributed it largely to the club's go-getter recruiting approach.
Jenny Peck, Plymouth, Minn., freshman, is competing in her fifth year of the aggressive sport. Although Peck brings a great deal of experience to the team, she said being part of a college team helped her work on different aspects of the game.
"I have learned how to become a better defensive player on this team," she said. "I have also been able to work on my tackling skills."
"We handed out filers, set up booths and used word of mouth to recruit," she said. "And I think we got a lot of good rookies this year."
While Danner may refer to the club's first-year members as "rookies," some of these players have rugby experience.
Peck and other members of the team have set a goal of reaching the national competition, which changes its site every season.
To qualify for nationals, the team must win games known as Merit Table, or championship qualifier games, and place first or second at the 10-team Western Regional Competition, which will take place in April at Lawrence's Westwick Rugby Complex.
"If we keep having girls come out for the team, we could have a shot at nationals," Spann said.
Spann said she had several goals for the spring season when the Jayhawks would truly be tested.
"I would like to see us win Westerns and keep the positive energy going," she said. The Jayhawks' ultimate success will be determined this spring, but they still have plenty of rugby to play this fall.
The club will close out the fall season against Truman State and Southwest Missouri State Saturday in Springfield, Mo., then compete at the Little Rock Tournament Sunday. Nov. 12, and Monday, Nov. 13. in Little Rock, Ark.

Hitter winds up for rematch against Cyclones

By Sarah Warren sports@kansans.com Kansan sportswriter
Amy Myatt will take the court as the grim reaper unmasked tonight — sucking the life out of the Iowa State Cyclones with every blow of her powerful arm.
Myatt, ranked third in the Big 12 Conference in kills per game (4.86), could help make quick work of the Cyclones, 2-20 overall and 0-13 in the Big 12 Conference, at 7 tonight at the Horesei Family Athletic Center.
"We want to come out hard," said Myatt, a senior outside hitter from Iowa City, Iowa. "We want to take care of business."
Kansas, 12-10 overall and 3-10 in the Big 12 Conference, plays Iowa State, 2-20, 0-13, at 7 tonight in the Horesi Family Athletic Center.
The Jayhawks took care of business Sept. 23 when they blew through Ames, Iowa, halting the Cyclones in just three games. Myatt led the Jayhawks in that shutout, smacking down 11 kills. That match, however, was only part one in the web of revenge that the Jayhawks are spinning for the Cyclones after losing to them late in the season last year.
"We had kind of a rough game with them last year," said Myatt, referring to a 3-2 loss at Iowa State that ruined Kansas' chances of qualifying for the NCAA Tournament.
TONIGHT'S GAME
Sports Columnist
The Cyclones: know that if they are to have any chance of competing with the Jayhawks tonight, they will need to shut down Myatt. It seems, however, that the Cyclones should bet on Myatt being more of a quiet riot than a short storm fading quietly into the night.
"Her ability to read the ball is awesome, and she's very athletically gifted," said Danielle Geronymo, senior middle blocker. "She doesn't complain, and she's very positive."

P
The excitement and energy from that game dissolved throughout the week and resulted in a season-low crowd of 26,000 fans who witnessed Kansasas' frantic comeback that fell short against Tech.
Lack of trust causing drop in football attendance
Heading into the weekend, the football team had won two straight games, including its previous home game against Colorado during which a group of probably drunk students stormed the field and attempted to tear down a goal post.
Was anyone aside from the Kansas football team surprised that the stands were relatively empty at Saturday's 45-39 loss to Texas Tech?
Surprising? Hardly.
Fan support has been stronger than in recent years - until Saturday. The reasons for lack of attendance are pretty clear.
For starters, the 97th playing of the game of the century, Oklahoma vs. Nebraska, was going on during the Kansas game. Fans probably wanted to watch that game instead. Also, K-State was busy losing to Texas A&M. Maybe fans wanted to watch K-State lose again.
I'm sure those reasons explain the absences of some regular attendees of Kansas football games, but there's more to it than that.
I talked to, and overheard, many students talking during the latter part of last week. The main discussion topic was, not surprisingly, the sexual assault case against two Kansas football players who allegedly assaulted a female Kansas soccer player.
The students' conversations mostly reflected anger and disappointment because they thought the accused players had gotten off the hook. The students didn't believe that none of the witnesses could remember anything. Coincidentally, the witnesses also were Kansas football players.
Some football players were surprised by the poor fan turnout at the game.
There are many students, myself included, who do not think fairness was shown toward all the student athletes involved in this case — especially the female one.
"The die-hard fans were there, but we can't get anyone else to come to our games," said senior Carl Nesmith. Junior Algie Atkinson also did not expect the low turnout.
Coach Terry Allen has taken the fall for the allegations against his players. Allen said the team's focus was to completely cooperate throughout the investigation process and to be fair to all the student athletes involved.
It's hard to get excited about cheering for some guys you don't trust. I have a lot of respect for most of the guys on the team, people such as seniors Moran Norris and Tim Bowers, who do a lot of good for the team and the community. Those guys make Javhawk fans proud.
"I would have thought the stadium would have been filled up more than it was," said junior Algie Atkinson. "But to come back like we did without much of a crowd says a lot about our character."
Perhaps the absence of fans was a response to the team, sending the message that fans won't support a team if its character is in question.
Or does it?
Regardless, a team is only as strong as its weakest links. I'm sure Norris and Bowers are tired of distractions involving their teammates holding the team back from the success it is canable of.
Fans are sick of it, too, and their message will continue to be shown by small attendance numbers until they feel they can trust all players again or the weak links are eliminated.

Kansas tennis loses to Oklahoma State
The Kansas men's tennis team fell to Oklahoma State, 4-0, in the first round of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Region V Team Championships Sunday at Tulsa Southern Tennis Club in Tulsa, Okla.
Oklahoma State took two out of three doubles matches against the Jayhawks and fared just as well in singles play, sweeping Kansas in three singles matches to clinch the 4-0 victory.
Kansas' sole doubles match victory came from two of its freshmen, Andrew Metzler and David Stauffer, who defeated OSU's Jiri Jezek and Justin Ewert, 8-6.
The Jayhawk contingent was hindered by the loss of top player Rodrigo Echagaray, who had to withdraw because of a back injury.

Broncos quarterback arrested on DUI charges
NFL
DENVER — Denver Broncos quarterback Brian Griese takes complete responsibility for actions that led to his weekend arrest on charges of driving under the influence.
Griese was pulled over Saturday on an interstate outside Denver. Police said he was traveling 80 mph in a 65 mph zone.
"I'm going to stand up and take it like a man, go on from there," he said yesterday.
He said at a news conference he had a couple of drinks at dinner with a friend before he headed home.
"I understand the seriousness of the charges, and I'm going to take
箭
full responsibility for it because that's just the way that I am," he said.
Griese faces a Monday, Jan. 16,
court date.
He failed roadside sobriety and alcohol breath tests and was taken to a detoxification facility in Aurora, Colo., said Colorado State Patrol trooper Rob Marone. Griese's blood-alcohol content was above the 0.10-percent legal limit, but Marone would not be more specific.
Griese was the NFL's highest-rated passer until he injured his right shoulder in a Sept. 17 game against Oakland. He missed a game because of the injury and has said he could need surgery during the off-season to repair torn cartilage.

PHOENIX — The Kansas City Royals and Texas Rangers say they will move their spring training sites from Florida to Surprise, Arliz., if the Phoenix suburb builds a stadium.
Top officials of both franchises made the commitment at a news conference with city officials yesterday. The move is anticipated for 2002.
Money for the $45 million stadium would be in place if Maricopa County voters approve Proposition 302 Tuesday, Nov. 7, said Surprise City Manager Bill Pupo.
Two-thirds of the money would come from the measure and one third from the city.
Proposition 302 would impose a hotel and rental car tax to pay for a new stadium for the NFL's Arizona Cardinals as well as provide money to improve and construct spring training facilities. The measure also includes money for youth sports.
However, Surprise city officials said they would seek other means to build the facility if the measure was defeated.
Surprise is a fast-growing city of about 40,000, located 35 miles west of downtown Phoenix.
"With the possibility of coming to Arizona, we didn't think

twice, said Royals executive vice president Herk Robinson. "We are firmly committed to signing a long-term lease with the city of Surprise and feel that our relationship will be one of
good citizenship that we can give to the community as well as receive."
The Royals' lease of their spring training site at Haines City, Fla.. expires after the
2002 season, but Robinson said his team could move before then. The Rangers' lease in Port Charlotte, Fla., expires after next season.
General managers and managers of both teams attended the news conference, along with Hall of Famer George Brett, who played his entire career with the Royals, and Rangers shortstop Royce Clayton, who lives in nearby Scottsdale.
"There's no question that there are a lot of benefits to us to come here," said Mike Cramer, chief executive officer of Southwest Sports Group, which owns the Rangers and the NHL's Dallas Stars. "It's an easier trip for our fans coming from Dallas. The quality of the league here is tremendous. The support for the league here has been tremendous."
Royals manager Tony Muser participated in Arizona spring training for 19 years with the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers.
"It seems as though we're always the visiting club when we play in Baseball City," Muser said. "There's never a feeling of roots.
"The first time I talked to Herk about it, I said if the opportunity ever comes up, it's a great place to train. The weather is consistent. It's a little bit easier to get in shape. It's just a better process all around."
Clayton, who trained in Arizona when he was with San Francisco, said travel during the spring was a big consideration.
“Spring training can be tough if you have to travel far distances,” he said. “The Arizona area offers short trips between ballparkes. Florida is tough. I was in culture shock having to go out to Florida, so I'm looking forward to coming back to Arizona if we can make that happen.”

Eager students camp out for good seats to opener
By Michael Rigg sports@kanson.com
Kansas sportwriter
Mike Nichols, Anthony freshman,
headed to Allen Fieldhouse yesterday
morning and couldn't believe
what he saw.
Or more specifically what he didn't see.
Nichols wandered into the fieldhouse at 6 a.m. to get his camping group in line for good seats for tomorrow's contest against the California All-Stars. Nobody else was at the fieldhouse, making the group the first of the new season.
"I kind of thought there would be more people here," Nichols said.
After Nichols signed his group up on the top of the list, a member of another group — the Shirttess Roy's Boys — wandered in, and the first contest for seats was underway.
Camping for seats is not unheard of at Kansas — students have been camping for more than 10 years. But because the Jayhawks are playing a meaningless exhibition game against the ragtag California All-Stars, it makes Nichols' enthusiasm unique.
Nichols said it even drew surprise
from Kansas assistant coach Ben Miller, who saw the campers and asked, "You guys are camping already?"
Nichols isn't deterred by the game's perceived lack of meaning.
"This is my first game, and it's the first game of the season," he said. "I'd do it again."
Alan Patterson, Anthony freshman, agreed.
"I just want to see basketball." Patterson said. "I've never been to a game. I also grew up watching Oklahoma State, and I kind of wanted to see how this compared."
Ross Cleveland, a member of the Shirtless Roy's Boys and Anthony freshman, said the early start was necessary to land good seats.
"You want to get the best seats you can," Cleveland said. "It's Kansas basketball."
The game will start at 7:05 tomorrow night.
Kansas Basketball Notes
Miles Away From A Decision One of the Jayhawks' top recruits, point guard Aaron Miles of Portland, Ore., wasn't any closer to making a decision yesterday.
Miles visited Arizona last weekend and said he would decide between Kansas and Arizona this week. Miles enjoyed his trip to the desert city and said the decision of Michael Lee, Miles' best friend who already committed to Kansas, might play a part in his decision.
But Miles said one of the biggest factors was playing time, particularly being a starter.
Another Kansas recruit, Keith Langford, a 6-foot-4 guard/forward from Crowley, Texas, visited Cincinnati last weekend.
He will visit Kansas this weekend.
"I have never been on the Kansas campus before," Langford said. "But I have relatives in Kansas."
The early signing period starts Wednesday, Nov. 8.
- Ticket Gaffe Student tickets for tomorrow's game list 8:05 p.m. as the starting time, but the tip-off was changed to 7:05 p.m.

New coach revives 'Huskers
By Chris Wristen

Kansan sportswriter
After tumbling into the ranks of Big 12 Conference basketball mediocrity last year, Nebraska needed a new plan.
The answer was Barry Collier, who replaced Danny Nee as coach last spring after the Cornhuskers struggled to an 11-19 record and a tie for eighth place in the conference. Collier said he was analyzing every aspect of the program and planned to rebuild it as he did to the program at Butler, where he compiled a 196-132 record during 11 years.
"One of the things we've tried to do is break down our team physically, skill wise and then attitude," Collier said. "We certainly have some players back that will offer quite a bit and be able to hold their own in the Big 12. Those same players have to have the skill and, most importantly, the attitude. It's easier said than done."
Senior and four-year starter Cookie Belcher, returning from a medical redshirt because of wrist surgery last year, will assist in the rebuilding process. Belcher is the 'Huskers' dominant leader who succeeded on two 20-win Nebraska
teams and set team fitness records this fall.
Another strong point to build on is senior center Kimani Friend. Ffriend is a preseason Big 12 first-team selection at center after averaging 12 points and 8.8 rebounds per game in 1999-2000. His most eye-popping statistic is that he had 85 blocked shots last year, which led the conference.
In addition to Belcher and Ffriend, the returning nucleus is even stronger. Senior forward Steffon Bradford and senior guard Rodney Fields both started for the 'Huskers. The team will need to replace graduate Larry Florence. He led Nebraska in scoring last year with 13 points per game.
"I want to help the team in any way I can," Friend said. "Me being a shot-blocker makes us that much more dangerous as a team. We are a hunterteam than a year before."
The 'Huskers don't have a dominant scorer on the roster, so Collier said his team would rely on its defense to win games. Ffriend's shot-blocking skills are the focal point, but Collier said it would take a team effort to be successful.
Women hope to improve ranking
"Right now, players are executing a combination defense where two of them play defense and three of them don't," Coffler said. "We have to be a good half-court defensive team first."

After finishing fifth in the Big 12 Conference last season, the Nebraska women's basketball team has dropped to seventh in the preseason rankings.
"Being picked seventh is not fun for anybody, but it is realistic based on what we lost," said coach Paul Sanderford.
Sanderford said he was looking to the ranking as inspiration for the season.
"I go to work every day knowing that I don't want to finish in that position," he said. "I think it serves as a motivation everyday for me."
The Cornhuskers are hoping to make a difficult jump into the top of the conference.
Nebraska lost much of last season's starting talent to graduation, and only one starter is returning to the team this season. The team's biggest loss was Nicole Kubik, who was the conference's fourth-best scorer, averaging 17.4 points per game, and was named to the All-Big 12 team.
The numerical total of Nebraska's lost starters is 48 points and 20.5 rebounds per game.
The lone returning starter is senior center Casey Leonhardt. Leonhardt averaged nearly 10 points and brought down 6.2 boards per game last season. She also was a dominant defensive presence by blocking 37 shots — seventh highest in the Big 12.
Stepping into a starting position this season is senior guard Amanda Went. Went averaged 5.8 points per game last year, but said she saw herself becoming more actively involved as a scorer and a leader.
"I think it will be hard for a freshman or sophomore to step up for us, but I see myself in that role and I will do my best to fit that role." Went said.
The biggest key for Nebraska's success will be protecting its home court. Last season, the Cornhuskers lost five games at home and only two in the Big 12.
"If a team can keep their home court and win some on the road, then the team will also be playing in March," Sanderford said.

Iowa optimistic despite turnover
By Chris Wristen
Kansan sportswriter
Graduation and an early exit for the NBA tore through the Iowa State basketball team like, well, a cyclone.
Despite the graduation of starters Michael Nurse and Stevie Johnson and All-American Marcus Fizer's early departure for the NBA, Iowa State will still fight to defend its 2000 Big 12 Conference championship. The task will be tougher this year, though, and experience is the crutch on which the team will lean.
"We do have a lot of players back," said Paul Shirley, senior center. "There is a certain amount of experience back, and we know how each other plays as well and that will be key."
Senior forward Martin Rancik, a part-time starter last year, also said returning players would play an important role on the team.
"We are anxious to get out there and show that we can play basketball and that we are good, and not just one guy can do it all." Rancik said.
The Cyclones will get their chance to prove that they are more than just Fizer when they take the floor for their season opener Nov. 21 against Morningside. They will be turning to a variety of contributors to fill the number losses caused by the lack of Fizer's 22.8 points and 7.7 rebounds per game.
One such contributor is Shirley, who backed up Fizer last year. Shirley averaged 7.7 points per game and will see increased time as a senior captain.
Iowa State's top leader, senior point guard Jamaal Tinsley, could have been a draft choice had he gone to the NBA last year. As a preseason All-American, Eustachy said Tinsley's improvement during the past year had been dynamic.
That's good news for the Cyclones because they were picked to finish fourth in the Big 12 by the conference coaches. They may need Tinsley and backcourt partner Kantril Horton, also a senior, to help them win some extra games and get back into the NCAA Tournament.
("Being picked that high) is quite a compliment," Eustachy said. "That means you should be an NCAA Tournament team. I'm sure if you look at some of these magazines, we're in some polls. I read a magazine where if Marcus Fizer was coming back we might be picked first. Now we're kind of off the charts. That gets me fired up."
Cyclones voted to recapture title

Life is good at the top.
After finishing first in the Big 12 Conference regular season and winning the Big 12 tournament, the Iowa State women's basketball team was voted to win the conference yet again.
All of the preseason accolades came after losing All-American Staci Freese, who averaged 13.8 points and five assists per game. Also departing the Cyclones was forward Desiree Francis.
Coach Bill Fennelly said he was flattered by the Big 12 coaches selecting Iowa State as the preseason favorite.
"It (the Big 12) has a totally different look than last year, but that is what will make it fun," he said. "Preparation will be very hard because of the new players since they will be a very big part of the conference this year."
Fennelly said he was looking forward to a productive season.
"We lost two great players to the pros, but I have a
lot of confidence in what we have coming back and we are going to give it our best shot," he said.
The Cyclones' best shot is to give the ball to last year's leading scorer and honorable mention All-American Angie Welle. Although Welle is a junior, she has been tabbed the preseason player of the year by the Big 12 coaches.
"It's weird not having those players around, but we will be ready for the season." she said.
In charge of getting Welle the ball will be junior guard Tracy Gahan and senior guard Megan Taylor. Both are returning starters from last year's Big 12 Championship team, and both will have to provide outside support for Welle in the paint.
While Iowa State was rolling through the Big 12, it ran into a tough Connecticut team in the NCAA tournament and lost by a single point, which kept the Cyclones from going to the Final Four.
"Losing by a point in the NCAA Tournament really stinks," Taylor said. "I personally want to do well because this is my last season and I want to go as far as we can and make a run at the title."

Director calls show 'hopeful'
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Dark Angel has the dubious distinction of being the only major network series to compete not just once but twice with the Bush-Gore presidential debates.
If viewers expected sheer escapism from Fox's new science-fiction drama, however, they misjudged James Cameron. The film director's TV venture is serving up philosophy and a dab of politics along with the special effects.
Sci-fi shows tend to dwell on big themes, especially when they have a big thinker like Cameron (The Terminator, Titanic) at the helm. He co-created and produces Dark Angel (9 p.m. Central Tuesday) with Charles "Chick" Eflee (Murder One).
The hero of Dark Angel, a genetically engineered, smartmouthed superbabe (Jessica Alba), has escaped her military handlers and is on the lam in 21st-century America.
The series delivers action, but also offers a society in which computer data has been wiped out by a weapon that left humans untouched. It also left them scrambling to make their way without their now-vaporized stock portfolios.
That's not necessarily a bad thing, said Cameron.
"I think people are way too focused on money and what I think of as the new national lottery, tech stocks," he said. "And everybody is thinking it's OK for our culture to just be a service culture and not create anything and just make money as sort of gatekeepers.
"I think that's problematic. I think we lose touch with creativity. I think we lose touch with the work ethic."
He's not trying to be a complete downer. The title may be *Dark Angel*, and the look of the show may be dark, but there's light in its soul, Cameron insists.
"The show tends to be hopeful. It asks, "What if you took the most prosperous nation in the world and put it back in a depression? What would people be like?" And the answer is they'd get by. They'd work with each other, learn to adapt."
Not without rough times. Alba's character, Max, and allies she meets along the way (including Michael Weatherly as a bold crusader) have to cope with relentless government scrutiny and official corruption.
The chief villain is Lydecker (John Savage), the military man hunting Max and other test-tube prototypes who also managed to escape a top-secret compound.
Dark Angel has its share of special effects. The two-hour pilot episode reportedly was budgeted at $10 million, and although it came in for somewhat less, it cost considerably more than other pilots.
"There's truth in advertising: Jim Cameron's name is on the show and that creates a set of expectations in the audience's mind, and we need to be able to deliver on that," Eglee said.
The weekly budget has been reined in, Cameron said without naming a figure, but it "scales" to the premiere episode.
While Max copes with trying to save the world, how much pressure is there on box-office king Cameron to make his maiden television venture a winner?
Dark Angel has yet to match its Oct. 3 debut when it drew about 17 million viewers against the first presidential debate, but it is performing respectfully for Fox.
"I don't feel that much pressure," Cameron said. "I do my best with everything I do."
He said a series was "very different thing than a movie, where you just fire it off like a missile and it either hit or it doesn't and it's all over by mid-day Saturday. With this, we not going to know where it's at for a long time."

Latin rocker hopes for breakthrough
LOS ANGELES — When he looks in the mirror, A.J. Vallejo sees what census takers describe as the future: a young Hispanic American, fluent in Spanish and English, belonging to one of the fastest-growing ethnic groups in America.
IS IT WINDOWS
OR UNIX BASED?
NEITHER, IT'S MY
OWN CREATION.
What Vallejo hopes he might also be seeing is the future of rock 'n' roll: young, brash and loud as always, but raised on a musical mixture of Tito Puente and Jane's Addiction; Los Lobos and Frank Zappa; Black Sabbath and the Tijuana Brass.
Still, Vallejo hopes the Austin, Texas-based band that carries his name will be the next successful Latin rock band. "We've definitely got our fingers crossed on that one," he says.
Vallejo was the first rock act to sign with Crescent Moon, which released the band's third album, Into the New, this summer.
HENCE I CALL IT:
MINE ONLY MINE.
Ricky Martin, Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Lopez are among the hottest names in music. But they are mainstream pop acts, not rockers.

FOR
SHORT.
GET THOSE FLYHY

KEYBOARD, YOUNG
MAN!
After years of false starts, two well-received albums on the small TVT label and one minor hit, "Just Another Day," on Latin MTV, Vallejo now has a contract with Emilio Estefan's Crescent Moon label.
"A lot of labels try to sign what is predictable," says Estefan, who believes Vallejo can do for Latin rock what he and his wife, Gloria, did for Latin pop in the 1980s. "Crescent Moon would like to let people have their own sound and respect them."
Vallejo plays loud and hard, performing a diverse mixture of rap, mariachi, jazz, rock, Emilio Estefan-influenced Cuban pop and other styles.
The Associated Press
"I got a job at Musician," he said. "The boss was making name tags for everybody one day and said, 'What's your name?' I said, 'Alfred Jr.' He wrote down A.J. and handed it to me, and I've been A.J. ever since."
But as his tour bus barrels up the East Coast, somewhere between Pittsburgh and Cleveland, he chuckles, "People still come up to us and ask, 'What does Valley-Joe stand for?'
He remembers when people in Birmingham couldn't pronounce his first name.
Is the American public ready? Vallejo is optimistic.
The time seems right. Or is it?

Senior having stellar year
Continued from page 1B
Indeed, Myatt's play and leadership both seem to follow the same philosophy: Walk soily and carry a big stick.
On the court, Myatt heads into the game, makes a couple of plays and then hits the bench. Going from bench to front line every third rotation, Myatt's play almost goes unnoticed — until the opponent checks the scoreboard and notices that Myatt's kills are in the double-digits.
"It's more of a quiet leadership with her," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "She was one of our go-to hitters last year. This year she's picked up more of the offensive load."
In practice, Myatt is learning to be more vocal so that others learn from her experience.
"I'm not a very vocal person." she said. "As a senior
you're immediately put in a leadership position, so I knew I would have to change that part of my personality."
She also has been trying to change her game for her senior season as well. Rather than being just a wind-up toy with a mad swing, Myatt is attempting to become a more well-rounded player. She wants to perfect her digging skills and learn to change up her swing.
"I've always wanted to play all-the-way around," Myatt said.
Not that Myatt's game hasn't been effective enough in the past. She scored 423 kills last season, which placed her third on the all-time single-season kills list. That was enough to earn her honorable mention on the AllBig 12 team. Myatt also holds the record for most kills in a four-game match with 30, which she scored last year against Auburn.
This season, Myatt scored 34 kills in a loss against Texas on Oct. 7, narrowly missing the fivegame kills record of 37 set by Judy Desch in 1985.
Considering her accomplishments, Myatt's formula for success is amazing simple.
"A lot of it is believing that you can," Myatt said. "You need to put the work in, the effort and the commitment, and everything else will fall into place."
Passing on Myatt's mantra for success is critical, especially when she, Geronymo, and senior outside hitters Nancy Bell and Sara Kidd graduate in May. When that happens, Kansas will not sport a single senior outside hitter or middle blocker.
However, Myatt said that the situation of next year's Jayhawks would be very similar to that of this year's crew, which lost Amanda Reves and Mary Beth Albrecht, who rank
first and second all-time in school history in kills.
"We did lose some really quality players," Myatt said. "But some quality players are still here, and we're doing the best that we can, and I think we're doing a great job."
Myatt hopes to lead those players to victory tonight. The team stands at 12-10 overall and 3-10 in the Big 12, and is coming off a 3-0 loss to top-ranked Nebraska on Saturday night. Myatt said she hoped that Kansas' contest against the Cyclones would be quick so that she could celebrate Halloween.
"Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, and I was so excited because we never play on Tuesdays," Myatt said. "Then I looked at the calendar and noticed that they changed the date. So, I guess that we'll be volleyball players for Halloween."

Texas swimmers dunk Kansas
By Christopher Telo Special to the Kansan
Special to the Kansan
The University of Texas men's and women's swimming and diving teams swept four other schools Friday at the Big 12 Conference Relays.
Although playing host to the event, Kansas did not benefit from the home field advantage, placing a distant second with 75 points in the women's division and fifth place with 46.5 points in the men's.
Competing with Texas and Kansas were Missouri, Iowa State and Texas A&M, a team that Kansas had competed against in a dual meet the day before. Although Texas A&M defeated both Kansas' men's and women's teams in their dual meet, the Kansas women's team beat the Aggies by two points in its hard-fought, second-place finish.
The Jayhawks had only two swimmers place first in an event. Junior Tammy Pace placed first in the women's 1-meter dive with a score of 165.50, beating Texas' Kristen Marquis by 10 points.
Pace also had a close finish in the
KU SWIMMING
women's 3 meter dive with a final score of 202.65 points, missing first place by 7.95 points.
The young team of freshmen Kristen Johnson and Maegen Himes and sophomore Gwen Haley took first place in the women's 800 yard medley relay with a time of 8:43.90.
Despite a last place finish, the men saw good performances from junior diver Adam Hanhart and sophomore Brian Soria.
Hanhart received a final score of 247.70 points to capture second place in men's platform diving.
Soria, a 2000 U.S. Olympic trialist, led the relay team of sophomore Patrick Norman and senior Jon Reyes to a third-place finish in the men's 1,500 yard freestyle relay.
"Brian Soria swam better than he did (Thursday) against Texas A&M," men's coach Doug Dickinson said.
"I'm convinced that if Brian continues on this track, he'll be very impressive by the end of the year. He provided some much-needed spark for this team."
Other top performances came from the team of senior Carolyn Grevers, Johnson and Himes, which finished second in the women's 150 yard breaststroke relay and the women's 300 yard breaststroke relay. The team of freshman Sarah Ross and sophomores Sarah Haley and Beth Schryer placed second in the women's 1,500 yard freestyle relay.
Both teams found that continuous competition such as the dual meet against Texas A&M and the Big 12 Relays was good training for the Big 12 Championships in the spring.
"Our swimming season is focused on that three-day meet, and some of our swimmers just swam 10 times in 24 hours," said women's swimming coach Cathy Burgess. "That will be great preparation for the end of the year at the Big 12 Championships when they'll be swimming up to seven times in a three-day span."

Loss to Chiefs perpetuates Seahawks' losing season
SEATTLE — The losses are piling up fast in Seattle for Mike Holmgren, the coach hired to get the Seahawks into the Super Bowl.
The Associated Press
The Seahawks lost 24-19 to the Chiefs Sunday.
For the first time in his nine-year career as an NFL head coach, Holmgren has lost five consecutive games. Since opening 8-2 last season during Holmgren's first year in Seattle, the Seahawks are 3-13. He is still the league's highest paid coach, earning $4 million a season.
"It's my job to teach them how to win," Holmgren said.
"I've never been in a situation like this before." Pro Bowl linebacker Chad Brown said after the game. "This is uncharted territory."
The Chiefs won with three quick-strike touchdowns in the first half, taking one minute, 30 seconds, 2:36 and 1:48 to score their touchdowns. The Seahawks ended October with a 0-5 record and were
outscored 142-66 in the month.
"I didn't expect to be talking about silver linings," said Holmgren, who coached the Green Bay Packers to two Super Bowls.
Cornerback Wille Williams was beaten on Kansas City's second two touchdown passes — the 50-yarder to Alexander and the 34-varder to Lockett.
Jon Kita returned to the starting lineup for Holmgren for the first time in four games because Brock Huard was sidelined with a concussion. His record as Seattle's starting quarterback dropped to 2-4.
The Chiffs (5-3) will be at AFC West-leading Oakland next Sunday.
Notes: Grbac tied Len Dawson (1964-65) for the franchise record by passing for a touchdown in his 14th straight game. ... Grbac had his sixth career 300-yard passing game and second against Seattle. ... Williams suffered a pinched nerve in his neck in the third quarter, but the team said the injury did not appear to be too serious. He played in the fourth quarter. ... Tim Grunhard injured his ankle in the third quarter and did not return. X-ray were negative.
Fans celebrate Yankees' victory with ticker-tape parade, ceremony
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Reams of shredded paper hurled from office windows created a virtual blizzard in the Canyon of Heroes yesterday as thousands of fans — many of them skipping work or school — helped the Yankees celebrate their third straight World Series championship.
"We called the school from here and they know who the hooky mothers are," said Donna Toscano of Wyckoff, N.J., with friend Lori Cooke and their four young children. "It doesn't matter because our principal is a Yankee fan."
when several debris fires erupted and quickly spread; the cause was not immediately known. Firefighters doused the flames, and there were no reports of injuries.
Blustery winds and piles of paper created a scary scene toward the end of the parade
After the parade, a City Hall ceremony presented the Yankees the keys to the city.
The chill did not deter fans from gathering hours before the parade's noon kickoff.
Grand Marshal Yogi Berra waved from a 1952 Chrysler convertible while a grinning Mayor Rudolph Giuliani joined Yankee manager Joe Torre on the trophy float.
It was the team's 26th World Series title and its fourth in five years. The Yankees defeated the Mets in five games in the first Subway
Series since 1956.
The Meta declined an invitation from the mayor to attend the parade, choosing to keep the focus on the Yankees.
Security for the parade was tight, with police barricades lining the streets. Employees in the area were required to show identification before police allowed them into their buildings.
But security could not protect the few brave Mets fans.
Julio Santiago said he was not thinking about the parade when he put on his satin Mets jacket and headed into Manhattan.
"Oh man, even the cops are telling me to take this thing off," he said. "I need some friends today."
